HALLOCK, Sditor sion of the A ty iat” Authorized as second class mail by the Post Office Department, Ottawa, and for payment of postage in cash, Who’s. gone ‘soft? .. . M.P, for Skeena, Frank Howard has been _éditorially accused by the Kitimat Northern Sentinel of “going soft’ simply because he stated in one of his ~ weekly: reports that in his opinion the Federal Government should take a firm stand in its dealings with the Province of Quebec at the political level. What Mr. Howard said in effect was that Quebec should be told gently but firmly to either put up or shut up and we can find nothing “soft” in that approach. Howard's suggested. tactics were far beyond the bounds of language and cul- ture. They were deductions based on Jagic. Although this newspaper has shown Lib- eral leanings in most political hassles during the past, we cannot but agree with our NDP Member of Parliament when he suggests that Quebec should be told that if she chooses to live with the rest of Can- ada she should be on equal footing with the other provinces.. There is no other way. Perhaps the hue and ery that has gone forth from Quebec during the past five years is largely an emotional thing, based on the premise that both French and Eng- lish. being Canadian Mother-tongues, must What Ho ‘TK ?. The Terrace Herald is what other news- papers might call a maverick, in that it enjoys a happy relationship with its radio and television contemporaries in the same community, There is no back-biting or ilt feeling between the two different media. If we can do the radio and television people a favour, we ate always ready and willing to do so and by the same token, they are equally as co-operative whenever we find ourselves needing a helping hand. Make no mistake — we do not always agree with one another, Often our editorial comment prompts caustic remarks. from CFTK staff members and often some of their air antics leave us cold, but still we maintain a healthy relationship. This is as it should be, There is room in any community for both media — provided -both retain a mature and. pleasant outlook, ; It angers us when other newspapers in the CFTK broadcasting area refuse stub- bornly to give the station any credit when- ever credit is due. Even more disconcerting be compulsory languages throughout the nation and that French-Canadian culture should be integrated with the rest of Can- ada, We find no fault with this thinking, What is irksome to the average West- erner is the political attitude of Quebec. The new Quebec Premier Johnson does not appear ready to do any soft-pedalling in the demands that are coming from French: Canada, In fact he is adding insult to ‘injury and heaping mere and more de- © mands on the Federal Government. Mr. Howard points out in his column of last week that we must not be belligerent in our handling of the Quebec situation. The Northern Sentinel says Mr. Howard. may have ‘gone soft.” We ask the North- ern Sentinel what approach it would favor?- One in which all Hell breaks loose and the general safety of the country is placed on. the auction block? No thanks — not for us. We'll take Frank Howard's idea. The one in which he states simply, “If Quebec doésn’t want to stay on an equal basis, we should say to her - — ‘if you want to go, then go in. peace.” There’ 's nothing “soft about that! are the editorial lashes that are often doled out by an irresponsible press against a media which is new and still groping its way in a relatively rough country. - We are not averse to making nasty cracks about programming which we don’t like, provided it is consistently bad. There are bound to be good shows on the schedule to help take the edge off our jangled nerves, There must be something to be said for a medig that manages to captivate 50,000 viewers night after night, thet manages to stay on the air despite some of the vilest. weather conditions imagin- ' able arid that keeps the public very well informed with a limited staff and limited facilities. We may not, for example, be too ha with what has come with September we are prepared to adjust to it and ber but enrol ina few adult education night classes during the bad evenings. In short — we like the people at CFTK. television but — is Peyton Place really here to stay? {tion of an Editor serving 4 local society.
