seamen's STRIKE-DISRUPTION OF TRAFFIC ON INLAND WATERWAYS On the orders of the day:

Member File Biography @ PARLINFO

Mr. JOHN BRACKEN (Leader of the Opposition):

Mr. Speaker, I should like to ask a question of the Acting Prime Minister. Perhaps I might explain that I gave notice of this question, and he advised me before leaving the house that in his absence it would be answered either by the Minister of Transport or the Minister of Labour, or perhaps both. The question has to do with the present disruption of traffic on some of the inland waterways of Canada.

I am receiving many manifestations of concern, from people who have no direct connection with either side of the dispute, with respect to the interruption of this traffic and certain untoward events in connection therewith. My question is: Will the Acting Prime Minister state, for the information of the house and of the public, what steps the government is taking to bring this issue to a satisfactory end, in order that civil strife may cease and the food products of Canada be dispatched overseas with as little delay as possible?
