Major James William Coldwell

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

Mr. M. J. Coldwell (Roseiown-Biggar):

should like to direct a question to the Minister of National Defence or, in his absence, to one of his assistants. Is the new system of grants to police and fire departments, announced by the attorney general of Ontario, which he said was part of an overall plan of improving national defence, being

undertaken in co-operation with the federal Department of National Defence? If so, will the minister make a statement in the matter and say whether the same co-operation is expected of or being arranged with the other provinces?
