Monday, March 3, 1975 Prayers by Capt. J. Foley. Mr. Speaker Gave His 24 Ez. 2 MAC 2 Mnd, Mrh , Two OCOCK .M. Prayers by Capt. l. Mr. Speaker gave his reserved decision on the matter of privilege raised by Mr. Gbn on February 27, 1975, as follows: nrbl Mbr,—h Honourable Member for North Vancouver- Capilano raised as a matter of privilege last Thursday a complaint relating to the disclosure of settlement figures between Public Service Union bargaining units and the Government. He cites the Hon. Provincial Secretary as stating on February 25 to the House in question period: "I intend to adhere to the agreement I have with the union involved not to release the details of settlements until all negotiations are complete." He considers news of disclosure to the public and not to the House to be a breach of privilege of the members and a contempt. There is no evidence from the honourable member that press releases or public statements to the newspapers and media have been made by the Hon. Provincial Secretary. Therefore the fact that the public has become aware before some honourable members of this House does not preclude the information having been received by the Employers' Council of British Columbia by some other simple means. For example, the public may be astute enough to examine existing Orders in Council. Had they done so, certainly the information sought in question period would have been easily discovered. That means, of course, that the Honourable Member for North Vancouver-Capilano could have satisfied his curiosity without the assistance of question period. I have secured most if not all of these Orders in Council for the honourable member. Both May and Beauchesne declare that information already available in public documents (such as Orders in Council, Statutes, or Government reports) should not be sought in oral question period. It follows therefore that such readily acces- sible information can hardly be the springboard for a matter of breach of privilege. In the 18th edition of May, page 327, it states: ". questions requiring information set forth in accessible documents (such as Statutes, treaties, etc.) have not been allowed when the member concerned could obtain the information of his own accord without difficulty." Thus no prima facie breach of the privileges of the House can be attributed to the Hon. Provincial Secretary, nor need this decision on these existing facts require at this time any consideration by the House as to the whole subject of privileges of parliament in relation to the subject of release of information outside the House.

Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.
