Helping hospitals is just one way This is how Lottery funds are continued from page 5 If Washington is softening its position on the softwood tax - a tax which has had dev- astating economic conse- quences for northern Ontario - is it really because three of our warships and some of our CF- 18s were committed to the Gulf? Or does it have more to do with the economic policies of Ottawa, which has kept the Canadian Dollar artifically high, thereby making Canadian exports of all kinds (not just softwood lumber) uncompetitive? With an over- valued Canadian dollar, the Americans are less afraid of allowing Ottawa to drop the 15% tax. The real reasons for Washington changing its posi- tion on the 15% tax might be fuzzy, but the consequences for northern Ontario are clear. This region is losing an indus- try - perhaps permanentlly. By losing sawmills we not only lose jobs, but also the ability to put our trees to the most efficient end use - taking larg- er logs to sawmills, and mak- ing the chips into pulp. At the same time, we can- not ignore the fact that Ottawa chose to impose that 15% tax on the Canadian sawmill industry, leading up to the Free Trade talks with Washington. 'As a sovereign: state;-do-we-- -- have to impose domestic harm on ourselves, just to please the elephant next door? Or, even if we follow Mulroney's policy of being friendly with the elephant, do we have to support the ele- phant's foreign policy, just to get the Americans to consent to a change in our domestic policy like the removal of the softwood tax? The next time George Bush chooses to exert America's military might, instead of let- ting trade sanctions work out a peaceful solution to a world problem as he did in Iraq, will we mice squeak up? Or will we do the elephant's bidding, hoping for yet another conces- sion? Howto be a Local Hero Ask.
