The Tories say it is con scription Conscription of what? We have had conscription on our statute books for several years Every session for the last three years the CC has moved resolu tions in parliament for the total mobilization of industry wealth and manpower for war On every occa sion the Tories and Liberals have voted these resolutions down It is all right apparently to conscript human life but the nation must not force industry and wealth to make the same sacrifice We have said consistently for years that if we compel our meh to place their lives at the disposal of this nation we should compel those who finance and control the Liberal and Con servative parties to place their in dustries and their wealth on the same altar of sacrifice at the same time and on the same terms "While the assets of powerful cor porations have increased in this war young Canadians have been dyihg overseas Our demand has not been realized but we shall con the demand until equality of sacri fice in war and equality of oppor tuntity in peace are secured for the Canadian people "The CCJ proposed In parlia ment at the recent session that the trained drafted men should be used for reinforcements without dis crimination or distinction We could not and did not vote either the Tory party or for confidence in rendered in the first world war and in the organization and mechaniza tion of our army in this war But I am sorry that he has been placed in a position where he defends the policy of a government which did little to protect reputation a year ago when the Tory party which today belittles and derides him was lauding him to the skies in the hope that his retirement would raise an issue out of which they could retrieve their fallen fortunes "In addition I have the satisfac tion of supporting a CC candi date Air Vice Marshal Godfrey whose

Believed Killed the policy of the government The motion for which we voted was one which no patriotic Canadian can oppose for it read: This House will aid the government in main taining a vigorous war effort As we said we are prepared to aid any government to win the war Blended with a desire for office the Tories joined the anti war ele in parliament in voting against the maintenance of a vigor ous war effort the Tories complain that men have been overseas five years without home leave They do well 1 to cornplain as we do also but they must snouicser a large part or the responsibility Many men who died at Dieppe were among those who had begged for the right to work and earn their daily bread and had been treated to a sample of the Tory iron heel and tear gas bombs' in 1938 at Regina a dose that was repeated under the Liberal government a few years later at Vancouver That's how Tory and Liberal governments were treating Canadian boys for 10 long weary years and how if or when
