6-Orene WeeklY Times, Wednesday, September 25, 1985 Anglers approve Muskeliunge brief Ontario'.s largest provincial conservation association, the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (O.F.A.H.), has asked the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (O.M.N.R.) to im- prove its Management of muskeilunge. In a 10-page Brief, the Federat ion has made 18 specific recommen- dations, including harvest regulation changes,' better stocking programs, increýased public education, and more research. The miuskellunge is a prize game fish. Lt has trophy status due to its fighting abili- ty, large size, and unique challenge to catch. It is imi- portant in most areas of the province and is thought to be in danger if action isn't taken now. In various areas, too mnany muskies are being kept, they are being harvested before they reach spawning age, their habitat is being destroyed, and they are being displaced by pike. After discussions at Zone Meetings across the province, O.F.A.H. members approved the Brief and its recomimen- dations. Among them are raising the size lim it to 38 in- ches, identifying; and protec- ting ail major spawning areas, modernîzing hatcheries and rearing the young to 8 or 10 inches before stocking, reducing harvest levels and establishing trophy waters. In addition, the Federation has asked that ail musekeilunge killed by commercial fishermen be turned over to the O.M.N.R. for research purposes. The 50,000 member, sport- smen' s conservation as socia- tion has submitted its Brief to the1 Honourable Vînce Ker- rio, Minister of Natural Resources. Dedicated muskie fishermen hope Mr. Kerrio is listening. o TN rCker Langdon (ommunica ons L i ed Caramel apples are a traditionalfavorite on Halloween. Halloween Treats for Tricksters This Halloween, many of us will be answering the door to calls of "trick or treat" from an assortment of neighborhood ghosts and goblins.

By Tony Carlson If there is an image that bankers ike to foster it is one of stability, of rock-solid foun- dations that inspire enough confidence in folks that they'll drop off most of their pay packet for safekeeping every week. By and large, Canadianis have that kind of feeing about their banks, and for the most part, the opinion is. well founded. That's, why the failure of one Aberta bank and the tot- tering of another have caiised so much anguish. But if there is one good thing to emerge out of the re- cent collapse and the political backbiting it spawned, it is that the whole banking systemn has been brought into sharp focus in the public eye. If a bank collapse can ever comne at a good time, this one did, occurring just as Ottawa is scrutinizing financial in- stitutions. The CWsmmons finance comn- mittee is in the midst of hear- îng reaction to the Green Paper on Financial Institu- tions whichi made proposaIs aimed at increasing competi- tion and flexibility in financial services. These are admirable goals and should be pursued. But there are somne ingering doubts as to whether the Green Paper is taking the best route through the forest. At its core, the Green Paper proposes a major rewrite of the federal rules to aliow non- baniks to enter the banking business by setting up holding companies to provide one- stop financial shopping. There is much m ore to the Green Paper, of course, but let's just focus on this sugges- tion for the time being. On the surface, it seemns the goals of more fl1exibility and competition would be met. But, as the Canadian Federa- tion of Independent Business notes in its response to the Green Paper, look a lîttle deeper and more questions begin to surface. CFIB welcomes any move that will make it easier for smnall. business to have greater access to money to build Up the firm. But there is concern that these new holding com- panies would tend to locate in the major cities and concen-' trate on large or medium-sized boans. Yet the great bulk of job- creating small firms aren't in Halifax, Winnipeg, Vancou- ver or any large city. And they don't seek mega-bucks when they go to the bank for a boan. In fact, says the CFIB, the proposai could lead to even greater concentration of power in the hands of a few monolithic corporations. What then of the small retailer Or manufacturer who, in many cases, is already- finding it difficult to deal with the large charteredl banks? There is a worry, too, that one-stop shopping could lead to the unhappy situation in which Bank X would refuse Joe Citizen a mortgage unless Mr. Citizen agrees to buy alI his insurance through the bank. Changes in the sector are needed, but the answers to these and other questions sur- rounding the issues raised by the Green Paper are far from dlean. Until they are, no govern- ment sho.uld act in haste on reforms, no matter how well- inte nded they are. For there will be no leisureiy repentance.
