The Colonel heads one of the most _ profitable organizations in the province. "He delivers a net profit in excess of $4. million to the government, And he shows a remarkable and well publicized distaste for the product which yields these riches.

What abouthis capabilities; his persuasivenesa; his dedica- tion; his convictions: his ad- ministrative qualities: his sin cerity? In short, would he make a good Prime Minister? I ask these questions be cause, if the newspapers of this nation have their way, he might very well be the next Prime Minister. When the Liberal Party in April chooses a successor to Pearson as the National leader of the, Liberals t¢ will be choosing a “yime Minister. Gur political system -is such that the people of Canada do not elect a Prime Minister, The political party does this by choosing a leader who, if his party forms the government, becomes the Prime Minister, We are entitled to ask certain searching questions about those who are running for this ex alted and highly responsible post, All the while we must remember that the ‘cult of the personality’ concept that has- been: injected into our politics in recent times | . has got us into deep and serious trouble. We accepted the personality in the form of The Right Hon ourabie John George Diefenbaker in 1958 We accepted, although not quite so strongly, the per- sonality in the form of The Right Honourable Lester Bowles Pearson in 1963, And in each case wewouldhave been better advised to look at the philosophy of the party. * * ° I think that the Honourable Pierre Elliott Trudeau is a re- markably brilliant person.
