This part of the constitutional conference is a continuation of the debate on the amending formula. It begins with the end of remarks by René Lévesque. Pierre Elliott Trudeau discusses the advantages of the Victoria amending formula, recourse to a referendum, power over the economy, the movement of people and jobs, related constitutional provisions in other countries, international trade, the need to protect Canadian trade and his support for a Canadian common market. Other speakers are Bill Davis, Jacques Parizeau, Richard Hatfield, Jean Chrétien and Bill Bennett, who discuss powers over the economy. Davis speaks about the importance of strengthening economic ties between provinces, the importance of not infringing on individual economic programs within provinces, the importance of the rights of individuals, specific issues such as transportation and purchasing hospital supplies from another province, restrictions on the flow of capital, the impact of trade barriers on manufacturing, Ontario’s support for affirmative action to help the economies of other provinces, and Ontario’s willingness to discuss mechanisms to improve economic cooperation and the free flow of goods and services between provinces.~Jacques Parizeau disputes the concept that discrimination is negative, arguing that to govern is to discriminate, in effect. Any policy which favours an industry or a region is discrimination. Some economic development policies are valid, such as the construction of major projects in areas of high unemployment. Governments choose to fund some economic initiatives but not others. Parizeau comments on the situation in the United States and Europe and complains about federal anti-trust laws. He states that Quebec must protect its workforce because the workers have less job mobility due to their language.~Parizeau argues that federal government actions in such areas as agriculture and the textile industry harm Quebec and states that federal policies should not interfere with the rights of provinces to take initiatives. Richard Hatfield complains about policies which protect Ontario industries at the expense of industries in other provinces, to which Bill Davis replies. Hatfield expresses concern if a free economy replaces the protection provinces must give to their own economies. He states that a free economy could harm regional industries such as mining and agriculture. Hatfield also comments on market prices for goods and services, the need to protect the construction industry in his province, the traditional national economic policy which favours central Canada and Ontario in particular, his support for a common market but one which allows regions to protect some areas, energy prices and equalization payments. ~Jean CHRÉTIEN speaks about protecting small businesses unable to compete nationally or internationally, tariffs, the need to reduce economic discrimination faced by all Canadian citizens, the need to be more competitive and gain access to larger markets, the impact of sovereignty-association, the need for industrial development in the provinces at the same time as recognition of the Canadian economic union, the need to reduce trade barriers between provinces and to look at federal policies which discriminate.
