Most Recent Speeches (Page 1 of 1854)
July 5, 1935
Mr. GUTHRIE:
There are very few
illiterate voters in Canada. It would not be protection equal to the signature.
July 5, 1935
Mr. GUTHRIE:
Mr. Chairman, at the
suggestion of the hon. member for Shelburne-Yarmouth (Mr. Ralston), in regard to the case of an illiterate voter who does not sign his name I have drafted a short amendment that might cover some of the objections that have been offered to this section. The amendment is as follows:
That is my true name, and that
the signature hereto is in my usual handwriting; or in the case of an illiterate voter, that the mark placed hereto is my usual method of signing my name.
I should be content to accept that amendment instead of the section as drawn.
July 5, 1935
Mr. GUTHRIE:
No, the present law is
that a racing association which has only running races may carry on for two meetings of seven days each or one of fourteen days. Hitherto trotting races have been limited to three days per year. The effect of this amendment is to put the trotting races on the same plane as the running races.

July 5, 1935
Mr. GUTHRIE:
I see the anomaly, but
the idea is to convince the public, the business people of the country, that this measure is to be enforced, and we are putting a special prosecutor under the control of the trade and industry commission for that purpose.
Subtopic: CONCURRENCE IN CERTAIN SENATE AMENDMENTS AND NON-CONCURRENCE IN OTHERS
July 5, 1935
Mr. GUTHRIE:
Well, they are different
associations. They do not have both at the same meetings. The jockey clubs run the running races and the trotting associations run theirs.
