Murray Brown, a repre- sentative of the Canadian Tour- ist Association, addressed the club. stressing the beauties of the Dominion. The CTA is an association of businesses, organizations and governmental bodies interested in the promotion and develop- ment of tourism in Canada. "Travel in Canada is a big theme," Mr. Brown said, "as it is a big business. more travel money in Canada. First, it encourages local indus- try and commerce. There are billions inyested in tourist facil- ities in Canada. More travel in- eome will help to amortize the cost of existing facilities and help create new and more mod- ern facilities. Another point is employment. Somewhere be- tween five and 10 per cent of Canada's labor force is now working in tourism. The invest- ment needed to provide one job in tourism is far less than is needed to provide a job in manufacturing. This is one answer to filling the job require- ments of high school youngsters who are coming out in increas- ing thousands, especially when a great number of jobs in the touristic field require compar- the U.S.A. and from over- seas countries. "This is almost double the) amount we received from exter- panding and needs to be in order to keep pace with competition in this field. "The Canadian Government budget of almost $5 million -- an increase of 30 per cent over last year. The program will in- clude increases in the U.S.A. market, and an expanded pro- gram overseas. The provincial governments, transportation companies and others are ex- panding their promotional ef- forts outside of Canada. "The Canadian Travel Trade Mission to Europe this year, came back with the conviction that Canada can expect a doub- ling of visitors from Britain, France and West Germany in the next three years. "The United States too has a) relatively untouched market for visitors to Canada. Last year, fewer than one and one half mil- lion U.S. citizens -- men, women and children -- came to Canada for a period of eight days or more -- a minimum vacation period. This included business trips and all types of visits. "When you consider that over 100 million U.S. citizens took a long distance trip somewhere, and most of these citizens live within a day's trip to Canada, we have barely scratched the} surface of our potential south of| the line. In addition, many mil- lions more have finances to travel, but do not take a trip anywhere, "Finally, there is the Cana- dian market. Canadians are the world's greatest travellers. They spend more money per capita on international travel than the citi- zens of any other country. "This has posed problems for us. The fact that Canadians for many years spent more money on travel outside the country than foreigners were spending inside Canada put an added strain on the drain of financial reserves already brought about by other factors. "Last year, for the first time in 12 years, Canada brought its international travel account into balance, we had a surplus of $13 million, This was brought about ation of the dgllar, and the re- strictions on purchases by Ca- nadians visiting the U.S.A. U.S. spending in Canada rose sharply and Canadian spending in the U.S.A. dropped SELFISH REASONS "No one wants to prevent Ca- nadians from holidaying outside of Canada, but it is remarkable 'that last year over 1,000,600 Canadians spent more than eight days outside of the coun- try . remarkable when Can- worth visiting are the following: "|of admission: Heart's Content, atively little training. "Finally, the tourist dollar cir- culates throughout the economy, and everyone benefits from it. "Among the many beautiful spots in Canada which are well "Newfoundland, Britain's old- est colony, founded in 1583 but discovered in 1497. The place names alone are worth the price Blow Me Down, Joe Batts Arm, Leading Tickles. "Newfoundland, an Atlantic Bridgehead is incredibly green.

"La Belle Province" as French-Canadians call Quebec, is both Canada's largest and oldest province, and the centre of all French-Canadian _his- tory and culture. "It is one of the most fasci- nating parts of Canada, with rich . historic associations and wonderful vacationing oppor - tunities. Montreal is the second largest French-speaking city, in the world, it is renowned for its gaiety, nightlife and cosmo- politan atmosphere. "There is a rich abundance jof religious and. historic sites to visit in Montreal, At old Chateau de Ramezay, built in 1706, you will see Champlain's garden gate, Wolfe's letters and sash.
