Poli ticians are using “bluff, simplification and obfuscation” to warp the think ing of the Canadian public as the referendum on Quebec independence nears, Keith Spicer says “Whether you’re federalist or pequiste, English or French, you’re going to be manipulated,” the former federal official languages commissioner said here last night Such issues as the econo my are being used to confuse the real question of independence or federalism for the province, he said Spicer singled out Premier Rene Levesque for propos ing a sovereignty-associa tion relationship between Quebec and the rest of Cana da, without clearly defining what it means “Truth has become the first victim,” he told an audience of 200 at Bishop’s University.“It’s a wonder ful time not to get involved in politics ’’ But Mr Spicer, who head ed the Official Languages Commission in Ottawa for seven years before resign ing last year to be a political columnist, repeatedly hit positive notes during his two-hour talk and ques tion-and-answer session “To me.the referendum debate is the equivalent to clearing one’s throat before getting down to serious discussion.’’ he said While politicians play out what he termed a game of poker.Canadians should reserve “80 per cent of their energy” towards rebuilding the country after the referendum Terms would be clarified then, and issues broken down into two parts - “lang uage and culture, and others,’’ he said Canadians will also have to know themselves better.Mr Spicer said Shifting momentarily into French during his mostly-English discussion, he said Que becers don’t yet fully realize Leadership plans touted Jean Lesage takes Grit post QUEBEC (CP) — Jean Lesage, former premier of Quebec and the man who brought Rene Levesque into politics 17 years ago.is returning to politics after an eight-year absence Gerard D Levesque, Liberal opposition leader.announced today that Lesage, a lawyer and corporation director, has agreed to become chairman of a special party committee on Quebec’s independence referendum.Lesage’s appointment comes as a surprise.Since he JEAN LESAGE: The man who hired Rene Levesque stepped down as leader of the Liberal party in 1969.he has declined all invitations to speak in public on political issues The only exception came last spring when he spoke out briefly during a panel discussion on the Parti Québécois government’s language law at the annual meeting of the Quebec Bar Association Some Liberal party members have recently touted Lesage, now 65, as a possible leader for the party now headed by interim leader Gerard D Levesque Announcement of Lesage’s decision came three days before the start of a Liberal party orientation convention in Montreal.That convention is expected to be a prelude to a leadership convention to be held next spring.Liberal Leader Levesque told a news conference that appointment of Lesage to the chairmanship of the referendum committee was accepted by the party executive Tuesday, the first anniversary of the Parti Québécois election victory Other federalist groups and the party caucus had not been consulted on Lesage's nomination, Levesque said But he added that “there is no doubt that such a nomination will help in rallying federal forces.” Appointed secretary of the same committee was Claude Oesrosiers.former president of the Liberal party.The committee will have about 10 members.Levesque said.The remaining eight will be chosen after the election of the new executive slate at this weekend’s convention Lesage was still leader of the Liberal party in 1967 Referendum rules pose threat to liberty - group QUEBEC (CP) - The province’s human rights commission warned Wednesday of possible threats to civil liberties resulting from the government’s proposals for organizing referendums In a seven-page letter to a legislative committee studying the white paper on referendum legislation, the independent commission expressed concern over a proposal to force all participants in a campaign to do so through “umbrella organizations.” Under the proposal, only these “yes” or “no” committees would be permitted to collect or spend funds during a referendum campaign, including the one on Quebec independence Record Highlights TIGHT SKEI) — The Beavers are off to Shawinigan tonight as they begin a tight schedule of three games in the next four days.Page 12.NOT SO PLACID— Lake Placid, the Upstate New York ski resort hosting the 1980 W inter Oly mpics, is undergoing a major upheaval.Page 13.CUP FEVER — Montreal and the Olympic Stadium gear for Grey Cup craziness and wild times.Page 13.MORE MARION — Quebecor, the prolific chain of mass-circulation tabloids, has signed a pact with the Marion family giving the chain exclusive rights to the story of Mr.Marion’s ordeal.Page 3.BIRTHS, DEATHS 5 FAMILY .6 CLASSIFIED .10 FINANCIAL 2 COMICS.11 SPORTS 12-13 EDITORIAL 4 TV.7 A true gentleman is able to hold back on the tongue what never should have been on his mind in the first place.N If you must fire me, couldn't you first transfer me to a branch plant in a region where fd be eligible for Unemployment Insurance and fire me there! Rene Hurtubise, commission president, said in the letter that the commission is concerned that this obligatory participation in the committees might limit freedom of association and freedom of expression because no money could be spent by anyone outside the committees “What happens in this case to the freedom of opinion, expression and association of those groups or citizens who do not with to join umbrella organizations because they do not represent their ideàs*’” SOFTEN PROPOSALS The commission said it understood the government’s desire to assure equal opportunity to each side in the referendum debate through strict controls on campaign expenses but suggested softening the proposals to assure basic civil liberties It proposed better guarantees within the committee structure for freedom of expression and that representatives of different political views be allowed to participate in the referendum campaign The commission also said that the proposed 25-hour limit on debate in the national assembly on the motion containing the wording of the question in any referendum is “much too short ” In another brief presented Wednesday, the Northern Quebec Inuit Association called for guarantees that an independent Quebec would uphold federal and provincial obligations under the James Bay and Northern Quebec agreement Rondeau expelled from Socreds Special to the Record OTTAWA — Shefford MP Gilbert Rondeau has been expelled from the Social Credit party caucus and his membership card lifted, Socred interim leader Gilles Caouette announced yesterday.Mr Rondeau’s expulsion from the party follows by a day revelations that he is charged w ith 24 counts of fraud and conspiracy to defraud the Unemployment Insurance Commission The veteran MP is currently awaiting trial on arson charges connected with a fire which razed a building he owned in Bromont.Shortly before that, he was fined $5,000 for income tax evasion in connection with the use of campaign funds Mr Rondeau, who continues to sit as an independent member in the Commons, was ejected from the caucus less than three months after Socred party president Martin Hattersley refused his resignation following laying of the arson charges Mr.Caouette refused to connect Mr Rondeau’s ejection with the latest charges against him, saying only that the party's Quebec branch had discussed the Shefford MP’s case last Friday and had taken the decision to remove his name from the party membership According to Mr.Caouette, he hadn’t known of the new charges against Mr Rondeau until the MP himself informed him of them in a letter Tuesday night Mr Rondeau, who has represented Shefford County for 12 years as a creditiste.has the right to appeal his ejection to the party’s national executive TRUDEAU FILE 'UP FOR SALE' GLOBE CLAIMS TORONTO (CP) — The Globe and Mail says an RCMP file code-named Operation Featherbed contains personal details of the life of Prime Minister Trudeau and that copies have been obtained by persons who are trying to sell it in the Toronto area for $100,000 a copy.In a report today, the newspaper quotes unnamed sources as saying the file on Trudeau contains aspects of his life other than his trip to the Soviet Union in 1952 which it says would have been reason to start a file on the prime minister Meanwhile, Progressive Conservative MP Tom Cossitt said in an interview from Brockville the Featherbed file reveals that foreign agents have infiltrated the security service of the RCMP He would not say what country was involved Cossitt would not confirm nor deny that the Featherbed file contained information on Trudeau but said there have been attempts from the political level to destroy copies of the file that have escaped the security of RCMP Ottawa headquarters He said Featherbed also contains comprehensive files and personal data on journalists in the Parliamentary Press Gallery how dynamic and wealthy the western provinces have become Talking about the role of young anglophones in Que bec today, Mr Spicer said they should show their Iran cophone counterparts res pect.while maintaining pride in their own back ground “The previous tanglo phone) generation never real In accepted that the ma jonty in this part of the world which is French speaking should be respect ed.” he said “You should make it clear you feel it perfectly consistent to be loyal to Canada and loyal to Quebec,” he told his mostly-student audience * \ v !
