Hundreds march in Toronto

fo protest Vietnam war

TORONTO — Hundreds of Tor-
onto citizens gathered in Queen’s
Park Saturday, May 7 and gave
out a leaflet titled “Six Point
Appeal for Peace in Vietnam.”

Over half the parade partici-
pants were young people, many
of them high school students,
Marching from Queen’s Park to
City Hall via College, Yonge
and Queen Streets, they stretched
for three blocks,

The Star said 1,500 marched
while the Telegram reduced the
figure to 500. The official count
made by the sponsoring Co-
ordinating Committee was 800,
excluding children,

Speakers included Rev, A.H.
Fowlie, chairman of the rally;
Helen Tucker, of the Voice of

Women; Professor George
Grant, who branded American
aggression in Vietnam “the most
horrible act since the decima-
tion of European Jews;” Dr,
James Endicott, chairman of the
Canadian Peace Congress; and
Rabbi A.L. Feinberg.

Rabbi Feinberg said he had
just returned from a visit to the
U.S. and found the war unpopu-
lar with the people. The Penta-
gon would like to make a hit tune
of ‘‘Onward, Christian Soldiers,”
but “young men are dragging
their feet.”

Banners read: “End the War
in Vietnam,” “No Canadian Muni-
tions for Vietnam,’* “Nota Penny,
Not a Rifle, Not a Soldier for
U.S. in Vietnam,”

Quebec election in full
swing; CP runs candidates

MONTREAL — On May 1 Que-
bee’s election campaign got
underway, Four parties — Lib-
erals, Union Nationale (UN), Ral-
liement National (RN) and Parti
Socialiste PSQ) — chose this day
for the official opening of their
campaigns, Election date is
June 5,

The Communist Party (PCQ)
had begun a few days earlier and

the Ressemblement pour 1’Inde-

pendence Nationale (RIN) had
been running something ap-
proaching an election campaign
for several months, In addition,
a small anti-French group called
the Quebec Conservative Party
will be contesting certain seats.

The Liberals and the UN re-
main the two major parties, ob-
taining the most attention and
gaining most publicity. Both re-
ceive their support from estab-
lished interests which are not
prepared to gamble on a smaller
party no matter how conservative
it may be. For the UN the support
comes from the more conser-
vative section, while the Liberals

depend upon respectable interna-
tional monopoly interests,

The RN and RIN might both be
described as petty bourgeois,
the former representing the
Creditiste-corporatist Right
wing, the latter a liberal tend-
ency. This leaves the way clear

on the left for the two social-

ist parties, the PCQ and the PSQ
which has swallowed the Marxist
wing of the independist move-
ment,

Three leading trade union-
ists — Jean-Marie Bedard, Henri
Gagon and Roland Souchereau —
have so far been nominated by
the PSQ,.
