IN HONOR OF
THE RIGHT HONORABLE
THE PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA
AND MRS. TRUDEAU
THE WHITE HOUSE
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1977
THE YOUNG COLUMBIANS are accurately
The
enough named. There are 19 of them, ranging in
age from 13 to 25. They are students of the Co
YOUNG
lumbia School of Theatrical Arts, Inc., in Columbia,
COLUMBIANS
Maryland. Unspectacular on the face of it, but
then comes a surprise.
The Young Columbians are an all-American hap-
pening, an artistic idea whose time has come. In 30
minutes, they cause American history to unfold
through classic songs and dances from colonial days
to the present, from the minuet to the hustle, from
ballads to rock, with a polished innocence and
freshness of talent rarely seen in performance.
Like America itself, the Young Columbians grew
like topsy. In what was to
have been a one-time,
show-and-tell appearance
in June 1975, they
created a grass-roots
sensation that has
since grown and
flourished.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FEBRUARY 21, 1977
OFFICE OF THE WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY
THE WHITE HOUSE
EXCHANGE OF TOASTS
BETWEEN THE PRESIDENT
AND
PIERRE ELLIOTT TRUDEAU
PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA
THE STATE DINING ROOM
9:23 P.M. EST
THE PRESIDENT: In preparing for this visit, I learned
that we have some very serious and very intense competition with
our friends from the North. Dr. George Gallup ran a poll
recently. He asked the people who live in the United States
to name their favorite nations. The United States got 95
percent. Canada got 91 percent. (Laughter)
So, I feel that I am in an intense and constant and
very challenging competition with Pierre Trudeau for the hearts
of my own people.
I think this does indicate the great compatibility
and friendship and sense of warmth and mutual admiration that
has always existed among American people toward Canada. We
share a border that is more than 5200 miles long.
For 200 years our people have lived -- with one very
brief interval, around 1812 -- in a spirit of friendship. That
is important to us, even more than we think, in our daily lives.
We are dependent on Canada for many things.
Canada has about 22 million people. Every year, 60
million people cross the border, and as a kinship and a sharing
of the light and challenge and enjoyment of life that transcends
the political realities of a modern, fast-changing technological
world, of course, the technologies are important as well.
We are now beginning to see that many of the things
that we took for granted, the purity of water in the Great
Lakes, an unlimited supply of oil and gas, security in our
borders free of possible direct attack in a time of war, those
things are now no longer sure.
I think, in a way, that has brought us even closer
together. I know that on the other side of the border, the
Canadians feel that we are.
The last time Prime Minister Trudeau came to our
country he said that being a neighbor to the United States
was like sleeping with an elephant -- (Laughter) -- that
you could very quickly detect every twitch or grunt.
Well, the elephants are gone. The donkeys are
here. (Laughter) And the donkeys are much more companionable
beasts, I think.

I do want to thank the Canadian people and Prime
Minister Trudeau for their gracious offer during this time
of energy shortage for our people, for their offer to
help us.
They exported some of their cold weather, but they
followed it up with all the natural gas. And we had a very
delightful meeting this afternoon to discuss some of the
international problems that face us both.
Tomorrow we are going to talk about some things
that affect both Canada and us in a bilateral fashion.
Prime Minister Trudeau's wife, Margaret came a
couple of weeks ago to visit Rosalynn and to open up a display
in one of our famous art gallaries of Contemporary Canadian
Art. I think this indicated, first of all, that we are
interested in the same things, but also that our nations are
distinctive.
Although we live in close proximity, we are quite
different and the differences are carefully preserved. There
is an understandable determination not to be dominated and
not to be pressured and to be unique and to maintain
individuality.
That is a sign of strength on our side and their
side of the border that is precious to us both. I feel
that we have approached an era of recognition, of mutual
purpose and ideals and hopes and dreams and aspirations and
also concerns about problems that might bind us even closer
together now than in the past.
And in a way, I am thankful for it. I am proud
of the personal friendship that was almost instantaneous when
I met Pierre Trudeau this afternoon. I had a sense of relaxa-
tion and a sense of compatibility that I hope will be an
accurate indication on a permanent basis of what our nations
feel toward one another.
I would like to close by saying that we have been
close in time of war and quite often. When our own nation
has made a mistake because of an excessive dependence on our
own military strength, Canada and its people have maintained
kind of a standard of ethics and morality and commitment
to unchanging truths that are a reminder to us to reassess
our own position.
So, we learn from one another. I am very grateful
to our visitors for coming, to honor us with their presence.
I would like to propose a toast: To the Queen of
Canada; to the Prime Minister of Canada, and to the people of
Canada.

PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU: Mr. President, Mrs. Carter,
friends:
I want to thank you first of all for your very
warm hospitality and for the informality of the dinner that
we are attending tonight. The informality was to be expected
from a household where you have a child of school age and a
puppy, I understand, and the hospitality and the warmth of
it was to be expected from you, sir, and from your very
charming wife.
I want to say that I am always a little bit moved
and perhaps even intimidated when I am in the White House.
It has such history; it has such great memories of remarkable
statesmen, American leaders.
It is particularly moving to be here on George
Washington's birthday. I find some consolation in that
because I was told an anecdote about George Washington when
he was retiring from office. The Philadelphia Aurora -- there
was then a paper called that name, I don't know if it still
exists -- but it had been rather unkind to President
Washington during his term of office. When he retired,
they had an editorial saying that if ever there was a day
for great rejoicing this was it. I feel, sir, that an old
politician like myself takes some consolation in feeling
that times never change. (Laughter)
You don't have to seek solace in this type of
anecdote. But indeed, you added to the sense of hospitality
when you were good enough to quote this finding of Dr. Gallup,
of which I knew nothing. It makes me feel if ever I get
in trouble in Canada politically, maybe I will come down
here. (Laughter) I can assure you, if you ever are in
trouble, which I pray will never happen, you will be very
handily chosen to be the leader of the Canadian people.
Your generous remarks are something which are
very much in keeping with the friendship and the long history
of cooperation between our peoples. It began, I think,
around 1781 when the Articles of Confederation proposed
that Canada be admitted, be invited to join the Confederation,
just by applying. I believe other colonies had to have the
consent of nine States in order to be admitted, but Canada
was to be admitted just on invitation and acceptance. Whether
it is good or not that we didn't accept in those days, is
perhaps very hard to speculate upon except to say that if
Canada had accepted I am sure we wouldn't be having such a
fine dinner here tonight. (Laughter)
Apart from that very short incident of hostilities
to which you alluded very gently, we have since then, since
the past 165 years, I guess it is, had very good neighborhood
relations, indeed. We have cooperated in many, many ways.
We have built together some of the greatest of men's enter-
prises. We have maintained democracy alive within our
countries and we have cooperated in assisting wherever we
could around the world in helping other nations in one
way or another.
MORE
Page 4
I think it is fair to say that if in those days,
150 years ago, we were the hope of the new world, a large
part of the hope of the new world, I would think that today
perhaps in large part we represent the hope of the Third
World. This joins many of the discussions we had this
afternoon.
I must say on behalf of the Canadian Government
and people that we are more than delighted; we are excited
with the generous approach that your ideas convey as regards
the world order, which would be based on equality and justice.
In our case, sir, we have done our part.
In terms of foreign aid, Canada is amongst the top four or
five nations of assistance to the Third World, and in terms
of our proportion of our GNP. Since the end of the Second
World War, we have admitted more refugees, political refugees,
to Canada than any other nation, barring the United States.
You have a slight edge on us. But they have come to Canada
by the tens of thousands, from Czechoslovakia, from Hungary,
from Tibet and Uganda and Chile and many other places.
We do try to, as Canadians, show this hospitality
to the world which corresponds to the generosity of the
Canadian people. I was telling you this afternoon, sir, that
though we have been a nuclear power for some 30 years, and
though we have the technology and the financial means of
building upon, we have chosen not to do SO. We have tried
to put our technology towards a more creative and fraternal
use.
We, with the United States, are the only member
of NATO which has troops on both sides of the Atlantic. We
are into our fourth term in the Security Council. We have
been in every peacekeeping operation, United Nations peace-
keeping operations, since the end of the Second World War.
We were in Korea. We were in the four Indochina Control
Commissions.
I say these things, sir, partly to be slightly
chauvinistic but also because we in Canada today tend to be
a little bit cynical towards the role of Canada in the world
and towards its generosity. I think that you won't be angry
at me for using this occasion and these hidden microphones
to talk a little bit about Canada's contribution, because
these things would not have been possible without a strong
and united Canada.
I just want to assure you, sir, that we intend
to keep Canada that way.
It is said that Daniel Boone, when giving advice
to those who wanted to join him on the frontier, said that
there were three essentials -- to have a good gun, a good
horse and a good wife.
MORE
Page 5
Now the frontier has changed in kind. We are
still very much living on a new kind of a frontier. In
these days when changing values in the world and the increasing
closeness of mankind to each other and where a new, special
kind of brotherhood is called for, I think we could replace
Daniel Boone's three essentials by three others. I would say
it is to have good goals, good discipline and good friends.
I know we have good goals and we discussed them
a great deal this afternoon. We found that together we
shared many, many of the goals in foreign relations and,
indeed, in internal affairs.
In terms of having good friends, well, you have
shown us tonight through your hospitality and your friendship
that that is a reality.
What has to be achieved is good discipline. I speak
for Canada and I feel that it is a virtue that we can do
with a bit more of -- if I can twist my grammar that way.
We are going through a period now when discipline, self-
discipline, is being understood as the only substitute for
discipline from the outside or discipline from the state. I
must say that I personally was very, very enthusiastic to
see the measure of discipline that appears in your thoughts,
sir, in your approach to problems and in your way of life.
I would propose a toast, not to the friendship
that we have, and not to the goals that we share, but to the
disciplines of our people, may it increase, and to President
Carter and to Mrs. Carter who will help President Carter in
imparting some of those disciplines on the industrialized
democracies.

OFFICE OF THE FIRST LADY'S PRESS SECRETARY
BIOGRAPHIES OF THE PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA AND MRS. TRUDEAU
PIERRE ELLIOTT TRUDEAU
In addition to his post as Prime Minister, Pierre Trudeau has been leader
of the Liberal Party since 1968. A confirmed federalist, Trudeau is opposed
to the Quebec separatist movement. After the November 1976 electoral victory
of the separatist Parti Quebecois (PQ) in Quebec, he stated that there would
be no negotiation of independence with the PQ government, although he was
willing to cooperate with it within the framework of the confederation. In
a January 1977 speech he said that if Quebecers voted for independence he
would resign as Prime Minister.
Trudeau believes that good Canadian-US relations are of the highest priority.
At the same time, he wishes to assert Canada's identity and reduce its economic
dependence on this country; he views improved relations with Western Europe
and Japan as one way of reaching these goals. To fight inflation, Trudeau
imposed wage and price controls in 1975 to last a maximum of three years.
He will not remove them earlier unless he is assured that inflation will not
rise again immediately.
A lawyer, Trudeau, 57, studied at the University of Montreal, Harvard Uni-
versity and the London School of Economics. He is intelligent and a skilled
debater. An outdoorsman, he enjoys skiing, fishing, flying, scuba diving
and canoeing. He holds a brown belt in judo. Trudeau is bilingual in
French and English and speaks good Spanish.
MARGARET TRUDEAU
The former Margaret Sinclair, the daughter of former Liberal Party Cabinet
Minister James Sinclair, was only 22 when she married Prime Minister Pierre
Trudeau in 1971. He is 29 years her senior. During the first three years
of her marriage, Mrs. Trudeau avoided the limelight as much as possible.
She emerged as a public figure to take an active part in the July 1974
election campaign and proved to be an effective campaigner.
An honor student and self-proclaimed "flower child", Mrs. Trudeau holds
a B.A. degree in political science and sociology from Simon Fraser Uni-
versity in Burnaby, British Columbia. In January 1977 she began a 2-year,
20-hour-a-week course in news photography and film processing at Algonquin
College in Ottawa. She aspires to a career as a photo-journalist.
Mrs. Trudeau feels that she has solved the dilemna of trying to fulfill the
duties of the wife of the Prime Minister while at the same time expressing
her own identity.
Mrs. Trudeau has traveled extensively in Europe and the Carribbean and has
also visited the United States, the Soviet Union, the People's Republic of
China, Japan, Mexico, Venezuela and Tahiti. She is interested in day care
centers, likes health foods and enjoys gardening. The Trudeaus have three
sons, Justin, Alexandre and Michel, born in 1971, 1973 and 1975, respectively.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FEBRUARY 21, 1977
Office of the White House Press Secretary
THE WHITE HOUSE
TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES:
During the campaign I committed myself to a prudent
and responsible use of the taxpayers' money and to pro-
tection of the environment. Today I am announcing a major
review of water resource projects which will further both
commitments.
Water development projects have played a critical role
in developing the economy of this nation. But many of the
320 current projects approved in the past under different
economic circumstances and at times of lower interest rates
are of doubtful necessity now, in light of new economic
conditions and environmental policies. At this point, based
upon information thus far developed by the Council on
Environmental Quality, the Office of Management and Budget
and the Interior Department, I have identified 19 projects
which now appear unsupportable on economic, environmental,
and/or safety grounds. I have attached a list of these
projects. I am recommending at this time that no funds be
provided for these projects in FY 1978.
I am instructing Secretary of the Interior Andrus and
Secretary of the Army Alexander, working together with the
Office of Management and Budget and the Council on Environmental
Quality, to carry out a complete evaluation of these 19 projects
and of all other water resource projects and to develop compre-
hensive policy reforms in this critical area. They will report
back to me and to the Congress by April 15.
This review will give us the necessary facts upon which
to make certain that only projects which are economically and
environmentally sound will receive final approval. The FY 1978
budget reductions for the deleted projects amount to $289
million. Total potential savings from these deleted projects
would amount to $5.1 billion.
I look forward to working closely with Congress to
develop a coherent water resource policy.
We must work together to achieve our national goals
of adequate water supplies, a sound transportation system
and needed flood protection. In doing so, we must make
certain that our investments are cost-effective, that the
cost burdens are equitably borne, and that the environment
is protected.

PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA
THE SOUTH GROUNDS
3:39 P.M. EST
THE PRESIDENT: To Prime Minister Trudeau and his
beautiful wife Margaret, to the people of Canada who have come
to be with us this afternoon, and to all of our own welcomers
who have come with us on this occasion to make our neighbors
feel at home: I am very grateful to be here, to welcome to
the White House and to our country a man who shares with me the
tremendous friendship that has always existed between the United
States of America and the people of Canada to the North.
We share a common border more than 5,000 miles.
We share a common defense of our own people. We share the
human and natural resources of an entire continent. We share
a great respect and friendship for each other. We share a
commitment to human decency and to personal freedom. We share
a historical belief in the principles of democracy and these
principles have been tangibly demonstrated by our Government
for generations. And we share a common commitment to world
peace.
Canada is our most important trade partner. We have
many common purposes and common concerns, common problems,
and also the potential for common solutions to those problems.
This next two days I will spend with Prime Minister Trudeau
and he will have a chance to visit with our top officials and
let the Canadian officials share these discussions. We will
be talking about defense and peace. We will be talking about
the world economy and our Nations' great contribution to
that economy.
Prime Minister Trudeau has been recognized for many
years as one of the developed nations' leading negotiators
and understanders of the problems of the developing nations
of the world. Because of his commitment to humanitarian
purposes, he has the trust and confidence of people who are
not quite so fortunate as we are. He is a senior statesman
of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, having been in
office now for more than eight years. His common and unique
and persistent commitment to the principles of the democratic
nations of the world has made him a leader even from the first
days when he was in office.

He made a comment recently that I think is
important for all of us to remember, which typifies his
own attitude toward human beings. He said it is not enough
to measure a nation's product in our gross national financial
product, but we should think about the outcome and the output
of our nation on the basis of a net human benefit, how well
the people find a better life because of the activities and
decisions of Government.
Because of all these reasons, in a personal way
and as a leader of our great nation, I want to welcome to
our country Prime Minister Trudeau and his wife, Margaret.
Welcome, Mr. Prime Minister.
PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU: Mr. President, Mrs. Carter,
and American friends:
First, I wanted to tell you, Mr. President, that I
brought the greetings of some 22 million Canadians. But I
see by the flags over on the lawn there that a lot of them
have preceded me there.
The greetings are warm nonetheless. I want to tell
you, also, we bring you our great, good wishes as you assume
the very arduous, important office of President of this great
Nation.
The Canadians are looking forward to this period
of good relationships with you as the head of this great
Nation. With your dedication, your hard work, your discipline,
your sense of morality, we feel that these are great days for
our relationship and for the world.
We are particularly grateful and honored, sir,
that you invited your North American neighbors very early
in the term of your office. I am sure I can speak for
President Lopez Portillo -- I certainly speak for myself and
for Canadians -- when I say that we have great expectations
that this continental neighborhood will flourish and
develop because of the great personal interest you have shown
in it.
The links between our countries are so numerous,
the cooperation that we are involved in is so deep that this
kind of meeting is as natural as it is friendly. As I look
through the enormous briefing books that I had, sir, and
I am sure it happened to you, too, I felt there is perhaps
nothing our countries can do that doesn't involve one another.
There are so many associations, so many committees, so many
clubs, so many links between us of all kinds that I believe
they are absolutely legion. I tried to get a count and I
was told it wasn't possible. I can well understand it.
MORE
Page 3
We have been such old friends and our links are
so deep that this number of associations together can only
rest on the deep friendship between our peoples.
The International Women's Year has only passed in
history for 14 months now. It seems that our wives, Mrs.
Carter and Margaret, have already met and established a
good agenda for the discussions.
You and I are only meeting this moment. But I am
quite convinced that we will, in a friendly way, rivalize
with their achievements and catch up to their friendly
relations.
I want to thank you, sir, for your very warm
hospitality to all the visiting Canadians and to have
received us in this beautiful garden and this nice sun. It
makes me feel that Canadians now as they are very deep in
snow, they have hope. They hope that when that snow melts
there will still be grass there on earth.
Sir, we hope with the same faith that you will
favor us with your visit and Mrs. Carter's to Canada one
of these days.
Thank you very, very much. I am looking forward
to our talk.

Memorandum to: Mrs. Carter
From: Coates Redmon
Subject: Conductor of the Marine Band
Major William D. Rusinak, conductor of the
Marine Band, retires after tonight's performance --
after 20 years of association with the band.
Gretchen Poston suggested that the President
might want to make note of this fact and perhaps
go over to Major Rusinak tonight after the East
Room festivities, shake his hand, say something and
permit a picture to be taken.
UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS
DIVISION OF INFORMATION HEADQUARTERS, U.S. MARINE CORPS WASHINGTON, D.C. 20380
Area Code 202/0X44080
MAJOR WILLIAM D. RUSINAK, USMC
Major William D. Rusinak started his musical career as a
violinist while still a young boy in Minneapolis, Minn. During his
high school years he served as Concertmaster for the National Music
Camp in Interlochen, Mich. This famed music camp is a springboard
for gifted youth into the professional musical world.
After Major Rusinak's graduation from high school in 1937 he
received a four-year scholarship at the Eastman School of Music, at
Rochester, N.Y. There he received his Bachelor's Degree in Music,
with his major field of study as the violin. During these
productive years he was also a member of the Rochester Philharmonic
Orchestra.
During World War II, while serving in the United States Army, he
organized a Special Service Band for Maurice Evans in Honolulu,
Hawaii. This Special Service Band has become nationally recognized
as a favorite of the Army's musical components.
At the termination of World War II, Major Rusinak underwent
graduate work at the University of Minnesota. At this time he was
also a member of the Minnesota Symphony Orchestra.
In 1955 Major Rusinak was auditioned and accepted into the
United States Marine Corps, for duty with the United States Marine
Band. Having been in the Army he was no stranger to military
regime, and by the listing of his experience you can well see he
was a constant companion to music.
With Major Rusinak's talent and initiative he was soon
appointed to the position of Concertmaster for the Band's White
House Orchestra in 1956. He first conducted at the White House
in 1965, and with much praise for his talent and enthusiasm has been
a musical favorite of the countrys' First Family since.
Major Rusinak was appointed the Assistant Director of the
United States Marine Band on 1 May 1972, and has served just as
proudly and deligently as when he first started his career as a
freshman at Edison High School, Minneapolis, in 1933.
(Revised March 1976)
PRESIDENT'S INTRODUCTORY REMARKS
FOR THE YOUNG COLUMBIANS -- Canadian State Dinner
I have heard it said by people of older cultures that America
is too young and restless to have developed a cultural heritage by
which it can be surely known. I disagree.
While it's true that we are a nation on the go, while we are a
melting pot of many cultures -- and we wouldn't have it any other way -
I think the American style is very distinct. The problem has always
been to collect the wide variety of expression and the total historical
experience that comes out of 200 years of non-stop nation -building
and gather it up into a single work of art so that the entire picture can
be viewed as a whole.
Tonight I think we are going to see that picture, and we
are going to see it through song and dance. An immensely talented
group of performers called The Young Columbians have combined
history and art with a great deal of wisdom and charm.
I
think
this is the perfect way to celebrate George washington's
birthday.

Memorandum to: Mrs. Carter
From: Coates Redmon
Subject: Suggested Addition for the President's Remarks
at the State Dinner tonight
After having seen the rehersal for tonight's entertainment,
which is super-patriotic in a very charming way, Mary Hoyt
and I thought that it would be a nice touch to add a
sentence at the end of his introduction to the entertainers,
"The Young Columbians".
Last week I wrote the attached suggested introduction, and
have now added one last sentence, referring to George
Washington's birthday.
