Such an event is at the bottomn ofi my list of things I would person- ally like to see happen in 1965.1 by mnost Canadians. H-owvever. we must face the fâct that for the Iast two- yeaxs our country has had a inority government in Ottmwa. While the govexnment is not blamieless, and'I do not make any attempt to place ail the blame on the opposition, the fact remains that the government has, been faced at evex-y stop by a determin- ed opp)psition which could, by com- binixtg its forces at any moment, cause tjhe defeat of the govern- ment. This is not a good ams pheré in which to conduct the na- tion~S business and it may have toi be rsve ne way or the otherj in the year ahead. * w INTER'S FOR RENOVATING AND CLEAN UIP JOBS WIIEN MEN AND MATERIALS ARE AVAILABLE SUPPORT YOUR WINTER EMPIQYMENT CAMPAIGN Cali Youir Local 314 Simcoe St. South, Phone 728-4631 LOCAL N W The Noxthway Restaurant, on Highway 115, south of Orono, op- enedo Mond ay for business un- der new management.
