Sub-series consists of correspondence with individuals and entities and touches on substantial issues of governmental policy and its application in various areas of Canadian life.

The correspondence is often with mayors, MLAs, MPs, other ministers, and political organizations (the Liberal Party of Canada, METPAC). Some examples of communications with entities are: F.I.R.A. (Foreign Investment Review Agency) and its work; the National Indian Brotherhood's proposals for Indian economic self-sufficiency; the Ottawa-Carleton Construction Association and clarity in relations with government ministries; and the Economic Development Council of Montreal and requests for support.

Examples of subjects discussed are: cultural policy, grain production (and compensation) for losses; insurance company failures; political action groups; needs of the handicapped; pension issues and difficulties; tariffs issues; and ethnic organizations and their relationship with the government.

The material highlights subjects of concern at that time for both Kaplan's constituents, and for Canadians across the country: crime and prostitution; market development; regionalism; marketing of the Dash-8; immigration; Planned Parenthood and abortion; animal welfare; the Canadian automotive industry; medicare; taxation; the pharmaceutical industry; nuclear energy and disarmament.
