Consider it God's way of leveling the playing playing field, and/or telling Canadians Canadians He's sorry. What happens next? Good question. Bad answer. answer. A further indication of the nation's wretched state is the citizenery's apparent willingness to accept Joe Clark, the modem-day Father Father of Confuddlcd-nation as replacement Prime Minister Minister at this critical juncture juncture in history. This startling acquiescence acquiescence does not reflect Canadian Canadian docility, as in the past, but rather suggests a dramatic change in basic nature for the average Canadian. Canadian. The world can no longer consider us overly cautious; afraid to take chances, unwilling to risk bold ventures, prepared to compromise reality in favor favor of mediocrity. Late last week, when opinion pollsters raised the subject of Joe's second Primal Act, with specific reference to his disastrous performance during a previous previous Tour of Duty in the late Seventies, the widespread widespread response was: "Hey, great. Maybe he can screw up Quebec too." Don't be overly concerned concerned about potential negative negative implications lurking within this response. It has nothing to do with a lack of affection for our French-Canadian brethern. Nay (non.) English Canadians, Canadians, reacting in Pavlo- vian fashion to seven years of "Truth, the Mulroney Way", now merely approach approach each Brian-induced crisis with a philosophical "Whutthehell, if it's that bad, it ain't worth saving." Actually, the strategy may prove sound. The law of averages suggests sooner sooner or later the little Guy will win one. "Sooner" has most definitely been beaten beaten to death. If Mulroney gets the job, he'll leave us with much to remember. Despite Despite the possibility of a premature departure, many notable accomplishments can already be attributed to Brian. For example, over the last three years his Free Trade deal has successfully successfully whipped the nation's work force into lean, trim, competitive condition. Our workers now stand ready to take on the world, as soon as somebody gives them jobs. An indicator of this strategy's effectiveness effectiveness is evidenced by last year's 24% increase in Unemployment Unemployment Insurance premiums, paired with a rumored extra 14% UIC hike for next year. Even more impressively, impressively, the recently imposed Tory Goods and Services Tax makes Brian a sure Household Helpers bet to win 1991 's 'Aqua Velva man' award, for single-handedly single-handedly stimulating the nations's retail industry industry with a "Thanks, I needed needed that!" kick in the ass. The additional 7% GST tax thinned our marginal operators, lowered the cost of retail floor space to more affordable levels, and reduced Main Street Canada to a smaller, more manageable size. The resultant resultant new retail reality is perfectly suited for brief visits by loyal shoppers as they scuttle past empty stores in between weekly border crossing expeditions. expeditions. Make no mistake: Brian's dramatic bid for global fame is not to be construed with rats leaving sinking ships. Having beaten beaten back all threats to the Remove fruit or berry stains from your hands by rinsing with lemon juice. • •••• Use lemon juice to remove ink spots from clothing. Canadian way of life - in his own mind, anyway - the Prime Minister appears ready to leave us with a Looney Legacy, and move onward in search of greater greater personal challenge. What a shame it would be, to deprive Canadians of a man who has exerted such monumental influence influence on our lives. Why, we'd even miss an opportunity opportunity in the next federal election to express appreciation appreciation for everything he did to... (ooops,) for us. Go for it, Bri. We're all behind you...

After only six year in office, office, MPs qualify for a life pension pension starting the very day they leave Parliament, regardless of their age. The pension starts at more than $17,000 per year and has unlimited protection against inflation. An MP retiring at age 31 could easily collect more than $2,000,000 in lifetime pension payments. What's worse, the Chief Actuary of Canada has estimated that the MPs' pension pension plan has an unfunded liability liability - a taxpayers' IOU - of S144 million. There are some principled MPs from four different political political parties who believe the pension plan should be reformed reformed by bringing it into line with private sector standards. We arc calling these MPs "The Good". Other MPs, however, arc fence sitters who don't state where they stand on this important important issue. We call them "The Bashful". We urge your readers to praise the good MPs, scold the bad and urge them to change their position, and demand that the bashful declare where they stand. Voters can find out who their MPs arc by calling Elections Elections Canada toll free at 1-800- 267-8683. The time to act is now because because MPs must make a decision decision this fall on reforming their pension plan. Our political leaders must lead by example. Our MPs can do that by bringing their pension pension plans into line with those offered to Canadians in the pri-., vatc sector. Yours sincerely, David Somerville, President. by Laura J.
