Angus MacInnis

Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (C.C.F.)

Mr. MacINNIS:

I suggest to the hon. member for Grey North that it would have been far better for him to reject the support of the communist party when he was elected to this house rather than to come here now and attack hon. members who have taken a stand against that party and who have

refused at all times to accept the support of communists. He is casting slurs on the character of such hon. members, but he had an opportunity to reject the support of the communist party and he did not do so. He came here first with their support.

No, I was never supported by a communist in my life. I understood that "Make This Your Canada" was one of your textbooks.
