How much of the The Quebecois are a self- $500-$600 billion debt is interest group with held by outsiders? What enough power to threaten Canada's integrity. They almost received enough support to give Shethne)ije a mandate to negotiale their separation from the Canadian family. Are they the only selfiinterest group in Canada? Had they succeeded, others would surely surface - The , Natives, the Western provinces, etc. Special status for Quebec will also alienate others. During the referendum campaign, Canadians talked so superficially of how new arrangements about all of the foreign i esment chain stores, anufacturing, etc., that counts on the stability of Canada. Haven't you noticed increased USA business integration into Canada with free trade? We are one of the largest countries of the World, have only 27 million population and a huge debt on top of a small GNP. Canada has stood for freedom, tolerance and encouragement of multi- culturalism without demanding commitment to our constitution and would fall into place. flag. However, we are not alone Self interest groups in this Canadian card could create enough instability in Canada that foreign investment would be deterred and our financiers, at greater rick, would retreat dems:iding more security or payment. This would create a "Mexican" collapse for us. With = the country disintegrating financially 'and into regional interests - the West, Ontario, Quebec, the Maritimes - would it not be appropriate and convenient for the powerful USA to restore security and stability by making'these areas new states of the USA? As Americans with allegiance to the flag, there are no speciak interest groups and no multi-culturalism. ! Canada needs to demand Wedding In Your Future? Planning for it will be easy when you one thing of all citizens and cultural groups - first of all, allegiance to the constitution and flag. = Freedom and privilege come second no allegiance, then' no privilege and no legal existence. If this were in place, the Bloc Quebecois (Parti Quebecois) would not exist in its present form - self-interest only. It is the official opposition within the Government of Canada and is committed to Canada's destruction. Self interest first Canada second contributed to the failures of the Meech Lake and Charlottetown initiatives. In Canada, we have freedom to the point of fantasy. So, Canadians - "give your heads a shake" - get serious about your fantastic Country before it's too late.

I would frame my efforts as the traditional conflict between the fiscal exploits of Industry, Big Business and the Rower Elite versus 'the .grassroot concerns for the environment, ecology and wildlife. Reminiscent of the issues that surfaced during my younger years inthe late 60's and early 70's. A major concern regarding the Lishman Proposal focuses on the contentious issues of airplanes and airstrips. The Proposal includes facilities for\the assembly, fabrication and storage of ultra-light aircraft operated by. the owner or by persons and individuals under the direct supervision of the owner. Considering the fact that Transport Canada have no interest in regulating the usage | of ultralight aircraft, than Mr Lishmar is given a free hand to determine thee frequency of flights, flight paths and minimum altitudes. He could in effect operate the Nestleton ~~ Ultralight Airport without regulatory controls. The impact of Mr Lishman's personal use of aircraft over the past summer months has prompted a large number of Nestleton residents to unite in protest of this proposal.
