When the Winnipeg over- haul base was neduced in size and openatione, Air Canada decided it wanted to dispose o! that unit and finally did so, but not until a special govennment study bad been made to determine if ibis was the best move to be made insofar as the gov- ertinent- ainline was con- cerned. The Winnipeg overbaul base was 'sold to CAE, a private firm. Along with the sale wenti a commitment ýfrom 'Air Canada that it wvould unidentake to provide overbaul work for the base, But the base in companiy witb ail aenospace industny, in North Amenica., bas been experiencing a slump.

He said it was à basic fact in our- forrni o! gov- ernment that crown corpor- ation be autonomous. However tbe Transport Minister nevealed that bie is now involved in seeking to "draft a new policy declaration with regard to the future role of Air Cana- da and one of tbe major consilerations . . . is the ex- tent to which it is possible for the government to impose itself on tbe corpor- ate decisions of, the com- pany in terms of what we see as being tbe national interest'. ,Tbe Minïster acknowl- edged that this would be a marked departure from, whtat bas been done up'to now But the field is be- coming so somplex tbat iA was time for the govern- ment to take a dloser look at the extent to whîch a corporation such as Air Caniada, shoculd b(-total7 fre bact in wh-1at it seesý as its co)rnteinest e-ven when 'the corponate( in - tenest could in fact be op- posed to certain other ob- jectives.

He bopes to, corne up with a policy that would ensune that Air Canada bas tbe maximum degree ',o! openat- ing fneedom and at the saine time make Air Canada more nesponsive to national goals.____ In the Editor's Mail HUNG UP ON DRUG 'EGO' Dear Editor: I bave obsen'ved during the short span of urnie I have beeni in tbe lovely town of Bowmanville, that 95 per cent of its citizens are drug users. Tbe drug being used is an, emotional dnug. The trip i gives is known as an ego trip. Ninety-five per cent of the people in this town are bhooked on a drug called ego. This drug is dangerous It's damaýging capacity is fan greater than any other drug known to- mankind. For it not only kills its uiser-, but also limits bis life to one of inhbibitions and fear. The user is so spaced-out on bis 'trip that bie feels a smile or a small two-letter word called 'hi' will cause a bummen. Il make a plea ýo you the citirr'ns of this beautiful town. If you want to get off the drug or know more about it, write to me, in care-of this neWspaper, P.O. Box 190, not tomonrow, but ri0W. Accept this as bring true or prove me wrong!
