SThink small byJinx Smithi Ail Stri.ngs Attached Canadians corne in ail shapes, sizes and colours, speak two officiai languages and hundreds of unofficial tongues, work at professions ranging fromn scallop fishing to compuiter engineering, mnay be p?.verty stricken or spectacularly rich. There is, in other words, no such thing as a "typical" Canadian. On the other hand, within geographical regions, there are likely to 6e more com- mon featuret than would be found between regions. The wheat farmers of the Prairies have different occupations, different ancestors, different geography and different cli- mate than the minersof Que- bec. Naturally, the farmners have-rnany values which are different -from" the miner.s' values.' Moreover, the. eco- nomic differences between the two regions are< enor- MOUS. ýThese differenc'es. were- obvious even 111 years ago. Consequently, Canada was set up as a federation rather than a unitary state; federal- ismn leaves room for expres- sion of regional differences. Somehow, Ottawa lost track of the benefits of fed- eralism. Over the last 20 years, the feds have moved, us dloser and dloser to, a unitary govemment opposed to regional differences. The saine federal programns are imposedl on ail the provinces, regardiess of whether the programns. are in harmony with specific regional or pro- vincial priorities. Ottawa hasn't actually held a gun to the provincial heads. -But it has subsîdized the programs which it fa- vours - and a subsidized programn is much more at- tractive than a full-cost pro- gram.*So the provinces have course. And the plan is this: if regional distinctions can be minimized, unification should follow. It hasn't work- ed out that way, however.' The provincial differences baven't vanished -, they've lntensified ini this environ- ment of negleet. Regionai unrest- in Quebec and the 'West, for example - can be traced back to the govemn- ment's "unification" reliance on conditional grants. Any other outcomneis liard to imagine. A fancy health care scheme loses mucli of its value if it means, in turn,' that the province can't afford to provide Sp.' prenticeship training pro- grains or maintaiÇi reasonable local services. And the only way the provinces can realis- ticaliy choose between pro- grains is by comparing the actual costs of those pro- grams. If Ottawa truly wants to heip the provinces, federal funds should be provided on a no-strings-attached basis aliowing. the 'provinces to freely.act on their own pri- orities. The consequenices of conditional grants are waste and regional dissatipifaction. To demonstrate that it is sincere in its concern about constitutional, reform-, Ot- tawa should. start with revi- sions of its own admninis- t!rative practices.
