As a prelude to the big Day, the month of June was indeed a month of excesses. Rain fell for about a week until one seriously considered considered building an ark; the evening temperature dropped following these days of super-inundation to almost the frost level; then the thermometers soared up to the 90s in the mid-day. The poor farmer trying to salvage an abundant hay crop in such tricky weather was at his wits end. Imagine storing away bales in some air-less hay-loft at temperatures temperatures soaring near 100°F. Not a happy prospect. The combination of heat and moisture has provided ideal growing conditions. One can almost see the corn growing. Likewise, the lawn. Our venture into an uncut portion of lawn due to mower mower break-down could be likened likened to Moses departing into the wilderness particularly particularly with a two day beard. And those maple seeds like the biblical parable that fell on fertile ground have sprouted and are already 3- 4' high. Our position is akin to the guillotinist in the French Revolution as we astride the power mower pursue an unrelenting arboreal arboreal decapitation of this miniature forest, ending their brief and fertile existence. existence. To return to our topic, Canada Day, just what relevance relevance did the anniversary have on you the reader? We presume the most common attitude of the average Canadian Canadian was an uninspiring "ho-hum." As Canadians we have for several generations enjoyed enjoyed one of the highest liv ing standards in the world, which we have accepted as our God given right. Now the worm is turning! All those good times appear to be coming to a dwindling conclusion. Faith in our federally arid provincially elected people has hit a new low. Scanaql and cheating in high places has become a common occurrence. occurrence. The lack of integrity of a few has created an air of questioning of all. All those good things that free trade was supposed to bring us, are a long time in coming, if ever. If we wish to maintain our Canadian identity, the time has come to shout to high heaven, "I'm proud to be a Canadian and want to remain one." Otherwise, down the road we could quite possibly be singing the "Star Spangled Banner," perhaps even in "la langue française." How would that grab you? It sure doesn't turn me on! ■OurPeopie Make the Difference.
