tion back to Canada with or without consent of he people All the provinces except Ontario and New Brunswick arc against Mr Trudo proposed constitu tion which includes a Charter of Rights This new section would limit the rights of In a recent survey per cent of all Canadians opposed Mr idea of amend our constitution in and then bringing it over here These Canadians and feel hat since we obey

Mr Many dtans do not realize that the Liberal government has the majority In the House of Commons Senate Cabinet and the Constitution Commit tee of who brought their ideas to be debated with the Members of Parliament That means whenever a Liberal proposal isvotcdonit does not matter what the Progressive Conservatu or the New Democratic Party members feci ttemust not make any harsh or hurried

Britain telling us what we can do and cannot do II says nothing about a Prime Minister or a Cabinet It only mentioned God and now even He Is being examined for he big The problem with having three parties in our parlio- men Is he reason that is being done Ed Broad bent agrees with Mr Trudcau he might well do with the N D and join the Liberals Pierre is trying do what he sees as helpful for Canada but since Joe Clark sees himself as defending Canadians there is no way he will go down without a struggle No longer does Canadas future matter pride is now the main factor Who seems to be the nose- running baby now Canadi ans can no longer ait back and do nothing about It That altitude can no longer stand It is the people in Canada that make the government not the government the Parents are constantly tell ing us that we never had it as bad as they did when they were growing up and that they hope hot we never experience what they did Well if they truly mean that hey should start

really Infectious spirit of enthusiasm through out the school One person who renewed two subscriptions through the High School for the first time agreed with Mr claim that the school could not be under sold I saved Si on each yet previously I was subscribing directly with the magazine said John Ellsmoor Mr reminded would be supporters who may have already renewed their subs criptions that

Cricket Club was assigned to the division of the Hamilton and District Cricket League As a new club to the League in competition for the first year the club gave a good perform ance by finishing third out of ten teams In the 1970 season the Club was also successful In the 1980 season the Georgetown Cricket Club played In the B division again and gave a most creditable performance In that the Club came second only to Brentford Cricket Club and thus was eligible for promotion to the A division where the more high ly rated and lough clubs participate dilemma Georgetown Cricket Club finds Itself in Is that it Is ruled ineligible to play in the A division because of the substandard playing field In Georgetown The Club Is thankful that it can use the Field but It difficult to accept that the Club is relegated to the B division because of inadequate playing facilities the area We have at least five players In my estimation who can make a Canadian team and play in International tournaments People tike Ashley Windsor Kumar Lloyd Jones August Emmanuel and J Balkissoon arc not only top players but It Is a thrill to see them In action I think the Georgetown Cricket Club has brought honors to Georgetown end something should be done about finding a suitable play ing field I appeal to the recreation department and Halton Hills council to do something about getting a suit able playing field Any help from any source be greatly appreciated Cricket is a great spectator sport as millions throughout the world attend national and International matches Cricket demands a great deal of skill and when played by great players It can be likened to poetry In action Yours sincerely Tom CofoimderandFlrst President of the Georgetown Cricket Club CANTANTE CONCERT MAY Georgetowns Singers
