Liberals

P. E. I. Potato

The following discussion tool! place in the House of Commons on June 10 when the House went in- to committee on ‘Bill Ifiol 87 to o- mend the Root Vezetables Act, sponsored by Hon. Mr. Weir, Min- lster of Agriculture, with Mr. Lav- crgne in the chair.

Mr. A. W. Neill. (Lib. Comox-Al- berniz) Would the minister be kind enough to explain what influences him in deciding that new potatoes must be graded? It would appear to be rather a new departure- Hon. Robert Weir, (Minister of Agriculture» We have received a number of requests from Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick that all potatoes there be graded. In addition to that we have these ros- olutions: resolutions by the Can- adian Horticultural Council asking that new potatoes be brought un- der the samsregulatlons as other potatoes; resolution by the Ontario Vegetable‘ Growers’ Association; al- so resolutions by the South Essex Growers‘ (Jo-operative and ~ the Central Ontario Potato Growers‘ As

. sociation.

LIBERAL CRITICISM

Mr. J. L. Brown (Lib. Lisgart) I think this is another way of at- tempting to do something which the Government attempted some time ago. It will ‘be recalled that the Government passed an Order- Council fixing a price for duty pur- poses on potatoes. There was a great deal of protest against that Order-in-Ccuncll and the Govern- ment instead of rescinding ltiwhen the evils of it were pointed out. passed another Order-in-Council Like the laws of the Medes and Persians, I suppose their orders am unuiim QCBDIB. S0 they PBSSBG Ell- other Order-in-Council substitut- ing radishes for potatoes. The effect of the first Order-in-Council was to put a. heavy impost on new po- tatoes comlng into this country- Objections were raised by Americ- an shippers, and these objections were endorsed by the potato grow- ers of the Maritime Provinces who were accustomed to_sell large quan- tities of seed potatoes to the Un- lted States, which trade was go- ing to be endangered. By bringing down this amendment the Gov- ernment is seeking to do in anoth- er way what they were prevented from doing in the first place. Now they are going to apply grading regulations in such a way tlfst the small potatoes that come in in the early spring will be ' ’ ’ because they will not come up to the grad- ing regulations. As a matter of fact, that is the purpose of this bill. Instead of calling it an Act to amend the Root Vegetables Act we might as well call it an act to exclude new potatoes coming in from the United States. lvIr. Neill: I am not particularly opposing the legislation“ in that regard. but I should like some fur- ther information. Under chapter 181 of the revised statutes, the various grades of potato are defln. ed, such- as Canada A, Canada 3.. Canada 0. and so on. and '1 think in all cases the potatoes are requir. ‘d i" b° ""0811!!! mature, and ‘Wen the lowest 8PM", and, o. a 1'6 quiz-led to be, I think, not 1m ti,“ 1 l" mm” 1°"!- Bllbléqusntly it lDPwra-I have not the act beforg ins-that the err-Minister of Agri- culture, in 1929, I think it was, ‘mulled that definition section of ‘m’ "i ""1 did away with an»: definitions of tbs various grgdgl He said be made regulations which allowed his department, with m, advice of certain bodies, time“; m. diluted. to make a new definition each year of what constituted the different grades, based apparently upon what had been dons in the mitt" 0! trading wheat every you, I do not think that idea. w“ .

ichsnge the grades. I'm‘ instance. two yemsgo, we found in the potato business that Dfltltoss for certifiedsesdludfobslfldedll? toacertainsimll-iinohclond upwards, while table stock of the same type would be graded down to 1 ‘I-il inches for No. 1 grmis. Certain seed growers shipped out all their potatoes over 2 1-4 in- clws for certified leelland .. than they could takethe balance of that stock between 2 1-4 and 1 7-8 in- ches andmake a full carload of No. 1 table stock, according to the reg- ulations as they existed at the time. You can see how necessary it was to change those regulations, be- cause a corload of potatoes consist- ing wholly of potatoes from 1 ‘l-B to 2 1-4 inches is of very inferior calibre, and nobody would accept

With reference to the remarks of tho hon. member for Lisgar, while I was sitting on that side of the House for a number of years I con- sistently advocated a change in the grading regulations which would stop the importation of such trash as we see exhibited particularly in the months of April and May in the City of Ottawa, and practically every other city in the country.

LIBERAL momma orroszs

Mr. E. J. Loung. (Lib. Weyburn): A few minutes ago the Prime Min- ister complained that speeches on this side of the House were, being repeated from time to time. I think we have before us a 300d illustrat; ion of a case where speeches such as" the one Just made by my hon. friend from Llsgar should be "l. peated again and again by every member on this side of the House. not with the hope of impressing the Government very much, but at least to let the country know wmt is being done and what are the motives behind it. 1 remember some years ago when the tariff bum-d W" Eittins. H sentleman appeared before that board and told them he had s cellar full of old carrrots that he could not sell, and he want. 9d such tariff ' “ m: “meted as would make ft impossible 1°;- bsople in this country to buy MW carrots until he had disposed of his old ones.
