Most Recent Speeches (Page 4 of 25)
May 22, 1939
Mr. HARTIGAN:
What I want to observe is this, that upon the present basis of giving subventions for coal production you are asking not Nova Scotia or the western provinces, but Ontario and central Canada to pay that dividend.
May 22, 1939
Mr. HARTIGAN:
He did not suggest that.
May 22, 1939
Mr. HARTIGAN:
I should like the hon. member to tell us how we are going to get money for dividends when we have to bonus our coal to get it upon a competitive basis at all?
May 22, 1939
Mr. HARTIGAN:
It is $7,900,000.
May 22, 1939
Mr. HARTIGAN:
From the very essence of the subvention method does the hon. member think it is a bonus on the coal or a subvention on production? It is on a tonnage basis that it is paid, therefore it is all to the good for the men. We should have more subventions if it were possible. The men would ask for it, not to retrench.
