QUEBEC (CP) — Elected Nov.15 on a platform of admimstrative, economic and social reform, the separatist Parti Québécois government will have ample incentive in 1977 to translate its words into action Political independence remains the long-range goal But the way Quebecers will vote in the referendum on independence—not expected before 1978—hinges largely on the government’s day-to-day doings À 10-day “mini-session” in December gave little indication of the new government’s talents since it was called to liquidate business left hanging by the previous Liberal administration The Liberal defeat Nov.15 came as a surprise even to many Parti Québécois members From 102 members elected in 1973.the p>arty slumped to 26 while PQ representation climbed to 71 from six There were complaints that the Liberals had let the Montreal Olympic project get out of hand, allowing a deficit of $1 billion to build up before stepping in.The former government was also attacked for letting the costs of the James Bay hydroelectric project skyrocket to $16 2 billion from an original estimate of about $4 6 billion LABOR PEACE LACKING One other factor that led to general voter dissatisfaction was the constant and wearying tug-of-war between the Liberal govern ment and labor unions Strikes in the public ser vice— especially in schools and hospitals—and in the construction industry plagued the Liberals in their last year in office In addition, language legislation passed in 1974 promoting the priority of French in schools, business, industry and public ad if if it Quebec entering a new maturity — Levesque QUEBEC (CP) Quebecers are entering upx>n a period full of hop>e and excitement in which “we will assume together the responsibilities of a new maturity,” Premier Rene Levesque says in his New Year’s message Meanwhile, Quebecers must try “to extract the best within us to make Quebec a land where one lives well “In the name of the Quebec government.I wish to one and all.to the large collective family we comprise.whatever the origins and language, all the possible success, harmony and happiness.” ministration earned the Liberals unusual hostility from many English speaking and ethnic Quebecers who had been historically staunch Liberal supporters With all those sore points.Mr Bourassa’s reasons for calling the election remain a mystery Party members complained that the former premier had decided to call an election despite the almost unanimous opposi tion of his cabinet and caucus For the first time since 1970, the presence of the Union Nationale party significantly affected election results Sluggish economic recovery predicted OTTAWA (CP) — Higher jobless rates and at least a temporary surge of inflation are expected to accompany a sluggish economic recovery in the coming year Federal economic managers face a multitude of problems as they try to prevent a widely expected slowdown in economic growth from 1976 levels.Among the problems are sagging investment by business in new production equipment, a $5-billion deficit that must be met by foreign borrowing and an uncertain economic outlook for major trading partners, mainly the United States It made federal Finance Minister Donald Macdonald’s second budget, expected relatively early in the new year, particularly significant.By year-end, key economic advisory groups including the Economic Council of Canada, were calling for federal measures to stimulate the economy.Since the May 25 budget, Mr Macdonald has revised his estimate for 1976 economic growth downward from five p>er cent to some lower figure One private economic research group, the Conference Board in Canada, was predicting No Record Mon., Jon.3 The Record will not be published Monday, Jan.3 in observance of the New Year’s holiday.Publication resumes Tuesday, Jan.4.The Record staff wishes readers A Happy and Prosperous New Year.three-per-cent growth in 1977.INFLATION CONTAINED The weaker 1977 prospects came after a year of apparent success on the inflation front.By November, the inflation rate had fallen to 5.6 p>er cent from an average 10.8 p>er cent for 1975.But at the same time, unemployment ranged above seven p>er cent of the work force— about 708,000 Canadians in November—a 15-year high Ottawa was able to claim some credit for its antiinflation program 14 months after its introduction.But it also forced the government into a $150-million make-work program to try to counter expected high unemployment in the winter months.Both private and government forecasters now exp>ect the jobless rate to range up to eight per cent of the work force in 1977.And there were signs that more pressure was coming on prices.Crude oil prices rise Jan 1 and, after a 60-day freeze, this will translate into an increase of two or three cents a gallon for gasoline and home heating oil.More increases are due after July 1.Food prices—the main reason for the good inflation performance in 1976—are due to rise again because producers need higher returns These costs are not controlled by the anti-inflation board, which exerts some controls only over distributors’ and processors’ incomes EXPECTED TO MODERATE But once these

expected to moderate, at least slightly, in 1977.This would leave Mr Macdonald some freedom to introduce stimulating measures—perhaps some tax cuts—and incentives for business investment in a new budget.After seven months of intermittent negotiations, Ottawa was finally able in late 1976 to persuade the provinces to accept new arrangements for shared-cost programs including health care and education.At an acrimonious federal-provincial session in December, the provincial premiers agreed to a new formula for transferring more tax-raising power and cash grants from Ottawa in return for ending dollar-matching agreements for these social welfare programs Ottawa thus will be freed from open-ended financing of these programs LEGISLATION EXPECTED Legislation to put the amended Fiscal Arrangements Act in place for five years is expected to be introduced in February About the same time, legislation to alter the federal Bank Act is to be placed before Parliament.At the December conference, Ottawa says, the premiers agreed in general to keep antiinflation controls in effect The controls are to run until the end of 1978, but the federal effort to initiate discussion about the post-controls period had led to speculation they might be lifted early.And by year-end, the economic council and even some businessmen who had met with Mr Macdonald through the year were saying that some type of permanent /Vr^i a "Quick1 Let's do something tax-deductible!" Rene Levesque man of the year The resounding victory of the separatist Parti Québécois in the Quebec election and Democrat Jimmy Carter’s successful bid for president of the United States were selected as the top 1976 Canadian and international stories by news media members across the country.Rene Levesque, the man who led the PQ to its defeat of Robert Bourassa s Liberal government, was named Canada’s man of the year by a narrow margin over last year’s winner.Prime Minister Trudeau Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer from Plains, Ga., who ousted Republican Gerald Ford from the presidency, captured the most votes in the international category Dr Henry Morgentaler, acquitted three times by juries on charges of performing illegal abortions, was seen as the leading Canadian newsmaker outside of politics for the second consecutive year.The views were expressed in an annual poll by The Canadian Press The PQ victory in the Nov 15 Quebec election came eight years and three elections after Mr Levesque became the leader of the newly-formed PQ When the final count was in.the PQ boasted 71 of the national assembly’s 110 seats and the Liberals had dropped to 26 from the 102 it held after the 1973 election The Union Nationale elected 11 members and the Creditiste and Populaire National parties each have one member WINS SEAT Mr Levesque’s own election in the Montreal riding of Taillon was the first time the 54-year-old former Liberal cablet minister won a seat as a PQ member of the national assembly The PQ campaign was characterized by repeated at tacks on the Liberal government’s weaknesses and the promise that the question of Quebec independence would be decided later in a provincial referendum The participation of more than one-million workers in the one-day work stoppage to protest the federal govern ment’s anti-inflation program was ranked the second most newsworthy story in 1976 The daylong strike Oct 14 was called by the Canadian Labor Congress The government's imposition of selective wage and price controls in 1975 was last year’s No.1 story Parliament’s vote July 14 to abolish capital punishment after more than two months of Commons debate on the contentious issue was rated third In world news, the Israeli commandos’ surprise rescue July 4 of 100 hostages held at Uganda’s Entebbe Airport by pro-Palestinian hijackers was ranked next to Mr Carter’s election as U S president The death of Mao Tse tung.the 82 year-old father of the People’s Republic of China, was listed as the third most newsworthy international story for 1976 Mao.who died Sept.8, had held the country’s most powerful post, chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, since 1935 ELECT LEADER Other events which figured in the top five Canadian stories were the election of Joe Clark, a little known back bencher, as the leader of the national Progressive Con servative party on Feb 22 and the Olympic Games in July watchdog agency will be necessary to keep prices and wages in check ( Organized labor however, remained opposed to current controls Joe Morris, leader of the 2.2-million-member Canadian Labor Congress, blamed the sluggish economy on suppressed consumer demand because wages are being kept in check.WANTS CONTROLS EASED He predicted a “fairly tough year’’ in 1977.Unemployment will rise, and labor wants less control on wage rates plus lower personal income taxes, he said On the international side, an uncertain outlook for the United States economy clouded the chances for expanding export sales.Industry Minister Jean Chretien called for “a major export drive” near the end of the year, but did not specify what he intended to do The effective devaluation of the Canadian dollar in November made it easier to sell Canadian-made goods abroad because they are cheaper for foreign buyers But soft markets internationally may offset this advantage Meanwhile, the growing deficit on interest and dividend payments because of heavy foreign borrowing was expected to result in an overall current-account deficit of $4 billion for the coming year, compared with about $5 billion for 1976 Canadian region increases Jan.1 OTTAWA (CP) - Canada will become 17 per cent bigger on Jan 1 and fishermen on both coasts hope that also means better As the new year dawns, a 200-mile fisheries jurisdiction comes into effect, giving Canada control of some of the world’s richest fishing grounds The new zones off the two coasts will bring under Canadian law more than 630,000 square miles of ocean—half the area of the four western provinces On March 1, the same day the United States proclaims its 200-mile limit, Canada will extend 200 miles into the Arctic, a further 12-per-cent growth in territory But hard bargaining lies ahead with France and the United States on where the final boundary lines will be drawn Negotiations are under way on interim arrangements until treaties can be agreed on That may take years However, for now, fisheries and external affairs department officials are satisfied with the result of a well-orchestra ted 20-month campaign to gain inter national acceptance for the Jan 1 extension SOUGHT BY FISHERMEN Fishermen have long regarded the 200-mile limit as salvation for dwindling fish stocks plundered by the trawlers of many countries Year after year, they witnessed a decline in the fish that they regarded as part of their heritage Their protests appeared to have little effect Canada seemed unable to convince its fishing partners that the stocks were becoming endangered The issue, especially off the East Coast, came to a head in the 1970s But by the time the International Commission for the North west Atlantic Fisheries ( ICNAF ) was ready to come to grips with the problem, Canada had decided that a 200-mile limit was the only answer Fisheries Minister Romeo LeBlanc said in a year-end interview that he and his officials became convinced in May.1975, that Canadian control was the only way to revitalize the fisheries It was during the Geneva sessions of the Law of the Sea Conference that month that Mr LeBlanc said he became convinced that the chances of an international agreement to protect the stocks was low MAPPED OUT STRATEGY Shortly after, the fisheries department began mapping out a timetable for extending jurisdiction In the early stages of developing a strategy.Mr LeBlanc and External Affairs Minister Don Jamieson, then trade min ister, were hosts at an Ottawa dinner for Norway’s fisheries minister and his officials The discussion over dinner centred on “the approach for countries like Canada and Norway that couldn’t think of a military-backed imposition of extended jurisdiction.” Len Legault, director of the fisheries international branch and probably the key figure in the 200-mile campaign, suggested the two countries draw up a model bilateral treaty that would recognize each other’s rights to control the fisheries within their own 200-mile limit Mr LeBlanc said officials began making notes and “kicking around ideas—with more cognac, we would have probably drawn up the treaty that night.” OTHER PACTS SIGNED The treaty, signed in December, 1975, became the pattern for agreements with other major fishing countries By the late spring, nations that account for 88 per cent of the foreign fishing off the East Coast had accepted a Canadian 200-mile limit At the same time, Canada intensified its research and surveillance of the fishery, collecting evidence to prove to its ICNAF partners that the loose rules of the commission were inadequate, that even the heavy cuts in quotas that ICNAF agreed to in 1974 and 1975 were not enough to allow the stocks to regenerate “We had to show that we had good reason to go to a 200 mile limit,” Mr LeBlanc said.Canada’s seriousness was shown when it closed East ( oast ports to the Soviet fleet for a few weeks in July, 1975, and sternly warned Spain and Portugal over repeated violations of ICNAF-determined quotas By the spring of 1976, “we knew where we were going and that we were controlling events instead of letting events control us.” ICNAF INFORMED Just before the start of last June’s annual ICNAF meeting in Montreal, Canada announced it would have a 200-mile limit by Jan.1, 1977 A few days later Mr LeBlanc told ICNAF delegates that Canada was ready to leave the commission But he said the commission still had a useful role and Canada was prepared to let it set fish quotas only for 1977 as long as they fit Canada’s objectives Canada will begin setting its own quotas in 1978 Having heard the same message from the United States, the commission reluctantly accepted The government considered the commission’s co-operation as important in reducing any problems in controlling the zone The final step came Oct.2 in an order-in-council giving 60 days’ notice, required under a 1971 statue, for the 200-mile limit to come into effect The next question is how the government’s plans for surveillance stand up t I — THE SHERBROOKE RECORD — FRI., DEC.31.It7« business ond finance The Bay — turning a few heads.MONTREAL (CP) - More than a few heads were turned this fall when the Bay—or La Baie as the department store chain is also known in Quebec-launched its new English-language advertising campaign on Montreal television stations Visually, the advertisements were fairly innocuous, featuring the usual parade of satisfied looking customers And nothing in the soundtrack was particularly jarring either.At least not until the final notes of the jingle faded reminiscent of Catherine Deneuve in her perfume ads The ad may not delight ardent women’s liberation advocates, but Richard Soly, the store’s Montreal-region sales promotion manager, says it has definitely succeeded in making English-speaking Montrealers aware of The Bay CAMPAIGN WORKED “It’s one of the most attention getting slogans ever to hit the city,’’ Mr Soly said proudly in a recent interview He admitted there had been some complaints about the ad, adding “In the retail away with the words “It’s business you get complaints bound to be at The Bay .ou for opening the store at 9:30 presque.The phrase is an adaptation of the chain’s older slogan, “Ask us for anything almost/’ with the substitution of “almost” with its French equivalent “ou presque.” What really attracted attention were two lines in the morning ” Mr.Soly, who worked closely with The Bay’s Montreal advertising agency.Dialogue Com munications PGP Ltd , said the exchange at the end of the ad was designed as a humorous way of focusing attention on the new slogan spoken off camera after the and its French kicker slogan Leaving the slogan simply “What’s this ‘ou presque0’ at “It’s bound to be at The

1976, ” said B Panet Raymond, President of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, in a year-end economic forecast issued recently “As in 1976, this will be below Canada’s average since World War II.” “Real gross national product should increase by about 4.0 per cent in 1977 as compared to 4 8 per cent in 1976 This decrease in the rate of growth reflects mostly lower expenditures in the housing sector, a slowdown in the rate of Canadian retail industry Little to look forward to The Canadian retail industry, with few exceptions, has little to look forward to in 1977, says Yorkton Securities Inc.The Montreal-based investment firm forecasts a grim year for retailers and lists four main trouble areas within the industry Yorkton expects a drop in retail sales growth to about eight per cent next year compared with an estimated 13 per ce^t in 1976.A major reduction in store expansion, high inventories and a continued lack of consumer confidence are the other danger zones, the investment firm says in a newsletter The history of the Canadian retail trade has shown during the last 25 years that a profitable year has always followed a lean one And 1976 “might be termed a disappointing year.*’ “But we believe that such optimism, although U.S.starts ’77 with deficit WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S.government said Monday the budget deficit for the first two months of fiscal 1977 totalled more than $20 billion, almost equal to the record deficit-setting pace in fiscal 1976 Concern over the size of the fiscal 1977 deficit is a major reason Presidentelect Carter is being cautious in deciding on an economic stimulus program for next year, his advisers say.A record deficit of $65.6 billion was set in fiscal 1976.Even without a Carter economic program, budget analysts believe the 1977 deficit might total $60 billion Carter’s advisers say they are proposing a tax cut of $15 billion plus a multi-billion-dollar jobs program that might push the 1977 deficit up to $75 billion or higher But Carter said Monday he probably will not decide the amount of his program until after the first of the year, although the general outline may be decided in meetings with his advisers this week ’ The treasury department said in a report on November expenditures that there was a deficit in government of nearly $7.4 billion during the month after expenditures of nearly $33 1 billion and receipts of nearly $25.7 billion The deficit in October, the first month of the 1977 fiscal year, was nearly $13 billion The combined deficit for the first two months of the fiscal year was $20.4 billion, compared with the deficit during the same two months of fiscal 1976 of $20 9 billion.Meanwhile, the federal reserve board reported that the government’s money managers decided to allow the money supply to grow at a slightly more rapid rate in November and December than had planned.been previously The board said the Federal Open Market Committee, which decides on money and interest rate policies, took the action because of concern that the slowdown in economic growth was continuing longer than expected thoroughly supported by precedents in the past, is not justified when looking ahead to 1977 *’ Among department stores, Yorkton says, only Simp-sons-Sears Ltd.is expected to show an improvement in earnings “and we expect that to be a nominal six per cent ” “There has been a very noticeable reduction in the rate of physical growth in retail trade in 1976 and there is every indication that this will continue in 1977.” DESCRIBED AS HIGHER The rate of physical expansion “is generally somewhat higher” among the specialty chains than in the department store trade.“Companies such as Canadian Tire Corp.Ltd., Coles Book Stores Ltd., People’s Jewellers and Pennington’s Stores Ltd.are not expected to reduce their rate of physical growth dramatically in the next two years “However, most of the other chain and variety retailers have already slowed physical expansion and are expected to slow their physical growth even further in 1977.” The lack of expansion has intensified the problem of high inventory.“One of the black marks against the Canadian department store operators is that they ’^ave had serious excess inventory problems in two out of the last three years in which the industry has had a high level of physical growth “There is sufficient evidence at the moment to suggest that the department store industry will enter 1977 with excess inventories, a year in which physical growth will be limited.” Yorkton cites unemployment, uneasiness over the recent Parti Québécois victory in Quebec, the deterioration of the Canadian dollar and lower wage and salary increases as the main reasons for the lack of consumer confidence in the retail market.consumer expenditures, and the likely absence of real growth in business investment in plant and equipment “1977 will probably see the inflation rate (CPI) continue its downward trend to 7.0 per cent from 11 per cent in 1975 and 7.5 per cent in 1976 The unemployment rate is likely to maintain its upward trend of the past few years to 7.4 per cent which, if realized, will be the highest annual average since Statistics Canada started recording that rate back in 1953 This reflects economic growth much below Canadian business potential, overly generous benefits paid to those who choose not to work and the large growth in the labour force.“Consumption expenditures are forecast to increase by 4.0 per cent in real terms, down from the average increase of about 5.4 per cent over the previous 9 years “The savings ratio is likely to remain high but decline from the 10.75 per cent achieved in the previous two years This would reflect small additions to savings after substantial gains in non-managerial workers’ real incomes for 1976 Dividend and salary constraints on those in higher income brackets have meant a real after-tax delined in the incomes of those who are typically large savers “Business investment in 1977 is not expected to show any real improvement over 1976 This is to be compared with a 5 0 per cent average real annual growth over the previous 9 years.This lack of impetus in investment is due in part to an anticipated slowdown in housing starts from 265,000 in 1976 to 235,000 in 1977 and to very little growth in general business capital investment.It reflects a cautious approach to future capital investment in the face of previously prevailing and increasing levels of uncertainty about policies to be pursued by all levels of government.There is a dearth of new investment commitments in light of an increasingly difficult environment for business in Canada “The foreign trade situation for Canada will likely improve very little in 1977 We forecast a current account deficit in the area oif $4 5 billion (current dollars) which is similar to the 1976 level The growth of merchandise exports will reflect the reduced tempo in economic growth registered by our main trading partners and lead to only a small merchandise trade surplus But the deficit in non-merchandise account items will maintain its upward trend due to increasing interest payments on past foreign borrowings (largely by governments) and to the rising trend towards an outflow of dividend payments.“In the absence of major policy changes, governments’ expenditures will increase by approximately 4.0 per cent ig 1977 which is less than the 4.6 per cent average over the previous 9 years.Canadian demands for credit lessening Financial markets showing signs of moderation The key to economic expansion Capital spending outlook uncertain More uncertainty in the outlook for capital spending in the United States, a key to continuing economic expansion, came this week with the U.S.government’s report on orders for nondefence capital goods The commerce department said such orders, which indicate the capital spending plans of corporations, declined 4 9 per cent, to a seasonally-adjusted $1195 billion in November That followed an increase of 3.9 per cent in October.Orders for defence capital goods also fell during November, by 2.7 per cent, to $2.4 billion The commerce department has projected an increase of less than two per cent in outlays for plants and equipment in the first half of 1977.“Some of the question marks about the economy haven’t been eliminated,” said John Kendrick, the department’s chief economist.The department’s report also showed the broader measure of durable goods orders rose 1.7 per cent during November following a two-per-cent rise in October That measure would have declined in November without an 8 2-per-cent increase in transportation equipment orders What the incoming Carter administration plans as stimulus for the economy, including the vital capital spending sector, still is unclear Stuart Eizenstat, in charge of policy planning for the transition, told reporters an announcement of the administration’s economic stimulus package should come no later than Feb.1 He indicated it will contain no more than $5 billion to $6 billion in new spending for jobs programs Businessmen likely are to receive either a temporary increase in the 10-per-cent investment tax credit or a temporary acceleration in the depreciation for taxes of their equipment In other business news: —Several major banks reduced their prime lending rates—the charge for loans to their most creditworthy corporate customers—to six per cent from 6V4 per cent —Ford Motor Co said two more assembly plants will be closed temporarily next month because of lower-than-expected auto sales With those, six of the industry’s 42 domestic plants will be closed for periods of one to three weeks, affecting more than 25,000 hourly workers TORONTO — Canadian financial markets have finally begun to show some real signs of moderation, says The Bank of Nova Scotia in the latest issue of its Monthly Review.The Bank points out that through most of the past year, credit demands have remained strong, that the aggregate cash requirements of governments have continued very large and that monetary policy has until recently had to contend with undesirably fast monetary growth.In the last couple of months, however, there have been the first signs of a lessening in the momentum of Canadian demands for credit, the ongoing rate of monetary expansion has fallen below the lower margin of the target range established by the central bank and the 5 per cent per year pace of advance of real economic growth appears to have been fading It was in these circumstances that the official Bank Rate was cut by 0.5 per cent in mid-November and the whole structure of interest rates moved lower This downward movement of Canadian interest rates, together with the political and economic questions arising from the results of the Quebec election, precipitated abrupt declines in the exchange rate for the Canadian dollar which fell by around six cents (U.S.) in the space of just over two weeks In assessing official policies, the Bank points out that the central objective of Canadian monetary policy since even before the launching of the Anti-Inflation Program has been to foster a “gradual” de-escalation in the rate of price and wage advance.With this in view, it was felt necessary to strive for a “gradual” lowering in the rate of monetary expansion, in preference either to a sharp contraction or to a broadly permissive stance.In addition, the Canadian monetary authorities have come increasingly to focus on the underlying trend of growth in money supply as the most useful indicator of the actual thrust of their policies.This shift towards a focus on monetary aggregates has been evident in the thinking and operating policies of central banks in a number of other major countries.Since the spring of 1976 there has been a considerable slowing in the trend of growth in narrow money supply, the measure of money on which the Bank of Canada was able to announce the first of what will presumably be a series of staged reductions in its target paths for the rage of money supply growth, setting a target range for an underlying rate of growth of 8 to 12 per cent a year.Indeed.a substantial shortfall developed with the data on narrow money supply for the month of October which showed the rate of growth from the base period to be only 6.3 per cent a year.Thus market interest rates started to decline and after the authorities moved to keep money supply growth from slowing too markedly by reducing Bank Rate, there were further declines.In its discussion of fiscal policy, the REVIEW notes that an important part of the federal government’s role in the broad package of anti-inflationary policies lies in containing growth in its outlays over the years ahead.The expressed aim is to keep the trend rate of growth in total government spending down to the rate of growth of Gross National Product There is now a fair degree of evidence that this effort is making headway and the hoped-for moderation in the advance of the federal government’s spending is also designed to cut into the size of its deficit and its borrowing requirements in due course.'A benediction from Heaven Schefferville under trusteeship?SCHEFFERVILLE, Que (CP) — It would be a “benediction from heaven” if the department of municipal affairs would place this northern mining community under provincial trusteeship.Mayor Charles Begin said Wednesday.Told of reports that Municipal Affairs Minister Guy Tardif is considering trusteeship, Mr Begin said a provincial takeover might permit Schefferville to end its dependence on the mining industry, virtually the only employer in the town 550 miles northeast of Quebec City.“The current situation cannot go on How can you administer a budget of $2.3 million when you receive no more than $1 million in revenue0” Mr Begin said the city ran up a deficit of $600,000 in 1976, despite a 37-per-cent rise in property taxes and a provincial grant of more than $400,000.He said Iron Ore Co.of Canada Ltd., the town’s major industry, stopped contributing special grants in 1975, claiming financial difficulties LEFT DEFICIT Mr Tardif has been quoted as saying the provincial government may have to impose trusteeship because of the financial crisis which followed the holding of this year’s Arctic Games, a sports competition which left the town with a sizable deficit.The minister also cited the failure of Iron Ore Co.to continue its grants The company accounts for 68 per cent of taxable property in the town.The property’s valuation fell by $1 million following recent changes in provincial law, although Iron Ore still pays half of all taxes collected by the municipality Mr Begin said one way of solving Schefferville’s financial problems would be for the province to increase its grants “The government would only have to increase the royalties or taxes paid by multinational companies to make up for the grants,” he said.Deliberately promoting a low profile Canadian Foundation for Economic Education A cynic may be tempted to ask what has the drabsounding Canadian Foundation for Economic Education done lately?The question is not entirely unfair as the foundation has deliberately promoted a low profile since coming into existance 2tu years ago “In fact, we re just getting to the point now where we’re beginning to dispel the impression that we’re a business group.” says J.Harvey Perry, 64, of Toronto, the organization’s president.The foundation is a small, non profit group sponsored by donations from corporations and membership fees to the tune of more than $260,000 this year It’s only task is to promote public awareness and knowledge of economics It does this chiefly through high schools and universities by improving teacher skills in economics and giving them teaching materials AVOIDS CONFLICT As economic issues can be contentious, the foundation's low-key position helps it avoid charges that it serves some special cause or point of view “We saw the need to be completely partial,’’ said Mr Perry in an interview “We decided from the beginning that the educational element should always be predominant in what we do.” What the foundation does and how busy it has been can be seen in the plans for next year Mr Perry said next year the foundation will step up publication of a series palled Understanding Economics for high school teachers and students It will intensify teacher seminar and curriculum programs with more seminars across the country A major objective for 1977 is to establish local regional councils of the federation in the Maritimes and Alberta, the first of many across the country In the future are plans to stage annual conferences CANADA-WIDE IMAGE Mr Perry said the aim is to make the regional councils images of the national organization, each with a local co-ordinator working either full or part-time “These councils will take over some of the things we are trying to do here in Toronto headquarters ” Once established in the high schools, the foundation will move to implement their programs in the universities It is a slow process and Mr Perry said it may be another decade before “we begin to show some impact in graduates arriving out of school a little less confused about economics.” Most high schools teach economics, he said, but it has been mostly an optional it a there subject “The interest has been low by both students and teachers This doesn’t surprise me when you think of all the

sabotage by foreign governments or terrorists, has quietly been sending agents north to inspect the Alaskan pipeline The CIA is also worried, say our sources, about the possibility that the Soviet Union, or other nations, may have plaited agents among the pipeline workers Internal documents from the Interior Department say that a CIA team was particularly interested in the giant Prudhoe oil field, the key pipeline terminal at Valdez, and the bustling Cook Inlet production facility Coincidently, investigators for the Senate Internal Security subcommittee are preparing a report that will show huge gaps existing in present federal and state plans to safeguard the pipeline Squabbling among various government agencies and Alyeska.the firm developing the multibillion-dollar oil project, has created severe security problems, the committee has discovered Tighter secunty is badly needed at such critical points as pumping stations north of the Yukon, which, if destroyed, could shut off the vital flow of oil for as long as a year, the subcommittee found The Senate investigators also have reviewed possible seen a nos for a major war, limited warfare or sabotage over die pipeline The subcommittee’s final report will recommend methods of handling such crises without a total halt of oil shipments to the rest of the United States There is no easy way.the committee has tentatively concluded, to effectively protect the long pipeline, which runs through some of the world’s most rugged, froeen terrain In fact one congressional expert told us, The pipeline is indefensible " Jack Anderson's > Washington Footnote The CIA confirmed the visits, saymg its agents keep a close eye on all such projects Colonel’s Coup: The Federal Qiergy Administration has become so infiltrated with ex-miiitary brass that it looks like a retired officers’ dub A clique of colonels led out to pasture by the Pentagon is meticulously taking care of the military’s oil needs at the expense of industry, other federal agencies and the consumer.At least 70 former brass hats are in high-level jobs, and the overall percentage of ex-military officers at FEA is more than twice that of the average federal agency Among the entrenched oil colonels, a persistent offender is Col Don Allen He’s added to his own interests conflict by bringing in a fermer Exxon maa George Mehocic, to help Big Oil get its way.According to internal documents, Allen and two other colonels, George Hall and Richard Johnson, have teamed up to give the Pentagon such favors as providing posh service dubs with priority oil during the fuel Portage This was in violation of the FEA’s own rules, insiders say In addition.ex-Gen Gorham Smith, an FEA assistant administrator, also employed some dubious methods to keep the fuel flowing to the Pentagon until sup- plies increased Disgruntled career civil servants finally urged FEA chief Frank Zarb to crack down on the colonels But the timid Zarb assied yet another colonel, Thomas Noel, to investigate the situation The probe by Noel’s office turned up a “pocket of retired military'’ .in fad.states the report, “a military dique exists " Not surprisingly, though, Noel’s office minimized the colonels influence and tried to undermine the courageous employees who had rightfully questioned the set-up Col Noel has now been replaced by still another colonel, Martin Tiger" Howell, who supervises all FEA hinngs Footnote The military will have even more clout when Zarb leaves office in mid-January and Gen Smith becomes acting administrator FEA spokesmen denied, though, that the energy agency was overloaded with military' brass or has favored the Pentagon Drug Report- In the next few weeks, the House Narcotics Committee, headed by Rep Lester Wolff (D.-N.Y.) expects

economically, fiscally and even socially Many companies benefitted from contracts.Workers came from all over and were given large salaries Various levels of government benefitted by taxes, enlarged by inflation We must stop judging the Olympic Games purely and simply as a catastrophe, attributed to Montrealers who are guilty of electing Mr Drapeau as mayor The bill not only imposes a special tax on Montreal, it carries a series of restrictions on Montreal’s borrowing power and mobility It is without a doubt necessary to assure better control on future development projects in the city.It is astonishing that a government which professes to be so democratic imposes from above what should come from below .We often hear the government criticized for “too little, too late.” This time we can say it was “too much, too fast ” —Claude Bruneau (Dec 21) Montreal—Matin: The prime minister of Canada, Pierre Trudeau, is especially fond of using the holiday season to outline his goals .Last year he made members of the financial community shudder with his airy words about the future of the free market system.This year, especially in a remarkable interview on the Telemetropole network, Mr.Trudeau brilliantly began his crusade against the idea of independence Against the trial of federalism which the Parti Québécois government intends to begin soon, Mr.Trudeau seems to wish to reply by contantly making Quebecers aware of the advantages of the federalist system Against the speech, worthy of a chief of state, delivered by Mr.Levesque on Christmas, Mr Trudeau retorted with his best cards Affirming that an obsession with independence could be a way of hiding real problems while hoping for a solution, Mr.Trudeau described an isolationist theory of nationalism as harmful and said he wc- Jd sooner see a fruitful coexistence among people.In announcing he would resign as prime minister of Canada if Quebecers voted in a referendum in favor of independence, Mr Trudeau strongly emphasized the financial aspect of the forthcoming debate The ideological combat against Mr Levesque has been started and one should be glad, as Mr.Trudeau is, that frank questions will be posed and that for the moment, the level of dialogue should not drop too low.—Marc Laurendeau (Dec.27) Montreal La Presse: During the recent meeting of the national council of the Parti Québécois, the delicate problem of the relationship that should exist between the new government and the party was discussed and temporarily resolved The party opted for flexibility, tolerance and confidence It is true that this young party has never, before Nov 15, held power It is necessary then for it and the new government to define the type of relationship which would permit elected members to govern as best and as freely as possible in relation to pressure groups, and also permit militants to continue to inspire and support the members without going so far as to impede legislators as if they were greater than those elected by the people Mr Levesque, being unique in the party in having strong governmental experience and being aware that a government should be free of all attachments capable of restraining it, told delegates the PQ should not claim to dictate the will of a government whose members are elected by the people It is interesting to recall that Pierre Harvey, program adviser, said that many aspects of the program are outdated Mr I^evesque said the same thing but in more detail, reminding the militants it is not always easy to go from words to action, that there are constraints to power, “that it is between two extremes-the angel and the beast-that we find good political sense.” Mr Levesque even stated that the party program is not a government program it was developed while in opposition by a group with limited resources ’’ Here we should recall that some time before the PQ was elected, polls taken by the party militants revealed that a strong majority of them expected a PQ government to put the program fully into effect The PQ had all the solutions before coming to power, including that for the language problem, its specialty Now that they are in power, all they can do is reinstate what the previous government prepared before its defeat; towards the remaining issues they remain hesitant, erratic and ready to do homework which will teach them what they thought they already knew This shows that a party aspiring to power should show prudence and not take on more than it can handle It will then be less restricted by unrealistic commitments and will be less disappointing to the public.What it should offer the electorate is an attitude of solidarity, a philosophy and ideology -politically different, but above all a firm obligation to respect scrupulously the popular will and be attentive to the needs and aspirations of the population.As for solutions, they will come in their own time and will be more appropriate in that they will not be restricted by unrealistic promises.I don’t want to end without asking Mr Levesque if the PQ’s independence option is supported by the same bases as other party programs which are today outdated by reality because they were developed while the party was in opposition and ignorant of the facts?— Marcel Adam (Dec 22) Quebec Le Soleil: A few years from now we will be confronted with a number of questions which will put our collective judgment to a harsh test.Applying technical knowledge to our social problems will end by obliging us to decide what makes us human and what we can do to preserve this characteristic in ourselves.In fact, at a time when our life expectancy is increased, when our tasks become easier, when our leisure hours are longer and our prosperity greater, our relations with others are becoming depersonalized The amazing progress of science is leading us now to consider an aseptic death as a mark of progress in our civilization Everyone is aware, for example, that there is an uninterrupted campaign for the triumph of euthanasia, tending more and more to increase the campaign for abortion This attitude is consistent within the logic of a system in which “death control” is presented as a natural equivalent to “birth control,” the killing of old people by euthanasia as an equivalent to the killing of infants by abortion Those who practise this under the false pretext of a relief for the human condition do a degrading task which is far from making them more admirable Those who attempt to propagate a psychology which is so op posed to human growth thereby incite self-denial, and death should be fiercely opposed and stubbornly pursued by others who are aware of their duty toward life The defence and betterment of human life is not an attnbute of a religious person It concerns all of us.Catholics, Protestants, agnostics, humanists— all who believe there is a moral and natural mankind which more and more needs protection against the blows of a questionable science which takes mankind less and less into account It is a job for man towards his fellow man —Paul Lachance cooking soya sauce) 14 cup, sherry 1 tsp.brown sugar •2 tsp.salt One-third

on top On Friday, the 13th of February, Kathy Kreiner was first out of the gate in the women s giant slalom at Axamer Uzum.Austria, and flashed down the slope in one minute 29.13 seconds, a time that stood up throughout the race.The victory by the IlEyear-old blonde from Timmins, Ont., in one of the last events of the 1976 Winter Olympics, brought Canada its only gold medal in either the Winter Games at Innsbruck or the Summer Olympics at Montreal.Kathy had thought so little of her chances that she had shipped her dress clothes home before the race, not anticipating any formal appearances to follow There was an element of surprise, too, on the last full day of competition at Montreal when Greg Joy of Vancouver upset American champion Dwight Stones for the high-jump silver medal, Canada’s first Olympic medal in track and field in 12 years.The gold was won by Jacek Wszola of Poland.Joy’s showing gave Canada five silver and six bronze medals in Montreal, the first country to stage the Olympics without winning a gold.Michel Vaillancourt of Hudson, Que., provided one of the silvers when he won a jump-off in the rain in the individual equestrian jumping competition.Canoeist John Wood of Mississauga, Ont., in the 500-metre Canadian singles and swimmer Cheryl Gibson of Edmonton in the 400-metre individual medley were the other individual silver medalists The mens 400-metre medley relay swim team of Steve Pickell, Vancouver, Clay Evans, Huntington Beach.Calif ; Gary Macdonald, Mission, B.C.; and Graham Smith, Edmonton, also claimed a silver At the Games, thousands of Canadians watched competitions involving most of the world’s best athletes while millions of others followed almost day-long telecasts.They saw Nadia Comaneci, the 14-year-old Romanian gymnast who earned a string of perfect marks; Lasse Viren, the Finnish runner who won the 5,000 and 10,000 metres for the second time, and East German swimmer Kornelia Ender, who broke her own world record almost every time she entered the pool.The only Canadian to win two individual medals at Montreal was Nancy Garapick of Halifax, the 14-year-old swimmer placed third in the 100 and 200 back-stroke.At the Winter Games, Cathy Priestner of Calgary claimed a silver medal in the women’s 500-metre speedskating event and Toller Cranston of Toronto won the bronze in men’s figure skating.Speed-skater Sylvia Burka of Winnipeg, denied a medal at Innsbruck, Iter won the women’s world championship in Norway.At home, the Canada Cup hockey tournament took over the headlines soon after the Olympics Team Canada, including Bobby Hull of the World Hockey Association’s Winnipeg Jets and most of the best National Hockey League players, won the tournament The Canadians had expected the Soviet Union to be the team to beat suffered their only defeat in round-robin competition at the hands of Czechoslovakia, losing 1-0 to the world amateur champions In the best-of-three final they defeated the Czechs 6-0 and 5-4 on Darryl Sutler’s overtime goal That capped a brilliant year for the Toronto Maple Leafs captain, who had tied an NHL playoff record in the spring by scoring five goals in one game.Philadelphia Flyers, victims of Sutler’s splurge in the quarter-finals, survived to meet Montreal Canadiens in the Stanley Cup final but bowed to them in four straight games Winnipeg had an equally easy final in the WHA, defeating Houston Aeros 4-0 Elsewhere in hockey, superstar defenceman Bobby Orr left Boston Bruins to sign a $3-million, multiyear contract with Chicago Black Hawks It seemed a dubious gamble

International Dave Watson enabled Liverpool to snatch a 1-1 draw against Manchester City in Manchester on Wednesday night and remain on top of the English First Division soccer league Manchester City, still third on the table, came so close to joining the champions at the top after Joe Royle had put the home team ahead in the 36th minute The goal was made by City’s 18 year-old midfield star Gary Owen, who lobbed a high ball into the penalty area But Liverpool, without ace striker Kevin Keegan, deserved a point on a bone-hard icy pitch which made ball control very difficult Snow and freezing conditions played havoc with the large football program and 18 of 31 scheduled matches had to be postponed, including seven First Division matches The only other First Division games played saw Sunderland sink further into relegation trouble by losing Both teams guarantee victory Just have to play the game 99 OAKLAND (AP) — Coach John Madden of Oakland Raiders, aware that Fran Tarkenton has “guaranteed” a Minnesota Vikings’ victory in the Super Bowl, had a simple response to the quarterback’s boast “I guess if both sides guarantee a victory, they’ve got to play the game,” Madden said Wednesday as the Raiders began preparing for the Jan 9 National Football League cham pionhip After the Vikings beat Los Angeles for the National Conference title Sunday and advanced to the Super Bowl
