iven big business can watch its pn- met too and we object lo bolng an indir ect contributor to this lavish waste it s too late to get back the millions but not too late to save the thousands on th government side voted together to they were bound to win which it el good an example as any of how ou parliament mutt operate good loo fof district tludentt was the opportunity to aiiociale with some of thir counterpart from quebec and to ex change idea on youthful level to real ue that delate language hurdle we are all canadian with essentially the tame ideals the same taste end the seme go the organizer of the parliament are to be congratulated on providing this ex cellent extramural ectivity may it pros per and grow at the year go by time for common sense an initial mistake when the bna act was drawn up has caused endleu gnef in canada and instead of the pat ting years- wiping away ou sores they have been perpetuated by generations of politicians with en eye to their party t suc cess it is the idea that canada should be a bilingual country now before anyone reaches for their shillelagh let us say that we aren t anti- french and quebec or anti anything along this line what we think it that canada u too targe too farflung and too sparsely pop u la ted to economically tupport a complete ly bilingual society already we tpend thousands of extra dollar in producing tons of federal government literature in two languages we have created a com pletely french radio ttation in toronto and we defy anyone to offer evidence that enough people lilt en to it to ustify its existence and at the years go by unless tome honest politicians tay what they real ly think the double standard will spread until we have two of everything from coast to coatt and bankrupt ourselves on the b n a shoe wftat it the answer simple and dras he lei get over the lllution that we are a bilingual country dopf english at our standard and keep french at a secondary tyt nonetheless important second tang uage will this mean the end of french language and culture not at all we grew up in windsor in a taction of the city where tlxth and teventh generations were completely bilingual speaking french in their homes and english outstde one thould rightfully be proud of onet ancestry but one thould be even more proud of onat country and this present agitation the hotheaded separat ittt the politician perpetuating condition which can only lead to disaster the kid glove attitude which ha characterized our dealing with quebec thould stop were this to happen the endbenefit would largely accrue fo mot canadian who have french a their only language for if it this lack of english which has handicapped many residents of that prov ince limiting their choice of obs because of the language barrier news

rectifying things now could it thats just what i did or at tempted with a pair of scis sors i must admit here that in my haste to eliminate aome of the superfluous points from 0ur leaf i snatched up a pair of pinking shears im afraid the result 37 points was just too much for me and i coll apted into my buy boy in ut ter frustration in all fairness alnce you did point leaf well ignore the nicks i
