There is no legal basis for a one-percentage-point federal sales tax increase that went into effect Monday and taxpayers have no legal obligation to pay it, says former Liberal cabinet minister Herb Gray.“I did research on the matter last week and I also checked with (former finance minister Marc) Lalonde,” Gray said in an interview Monday.“We came to the agreement that the government has no legal basis for collecting it because there is a consti- tutional and parliamentary convention that says a tax increase must at least have the approval of a ways and means committee (of Parliament),” said Gray, Opposition House leader and member for Windsor West.The sales tax increase was part of the last Liberal budget in April 1983, but an election was called and Parliament was dissolved before the budget was passed.The Conservatives, then the official Opposition, bitterly opposed the in- crease, warning that it would plunge the country into a full blown recession if imposed at a time of high unemployment GOES AHEAD But last Thursday.Finance Minister Michael Wilson said the new Tory government will go ahead with the increase.He said the federal treasury needs the $300 million the tax will generate in the current fiscal year and $900 million in the next fiscal year.Wilson was at a reception for the Queen at Roy Thomson Hall on Mon day night and could not be reached for comment.Donald Macdonald, Liberal finance minister from 1975 to 1977 and now in private business, told the Toronto AXy/-that while it may be true a tax payer has no legal obligation to pay the extra tax, the government will get it eventually.Macdonald said the constitutional and parliamentary convention of which Gray spoke is not that binding.in Canada, we always go on a convention that assumes that if the finance minister says it, he’s going to doit,” Macdonald said The new rate raises the tax paid by manufacturers and producers — and inevitably passed along to consumers to 13 per cent on alcohol and tobacco, six per cent on construction materials and 111 per cent on other manu factored goods, except food and clothing.Cream of Canadian arts crop stage gala for Queen Mackasey suing paper for $1.9M By Wendy Eckersley and Chisholm MacDonald TORONTO (CP) — The men in black tie and the women in glittering evening dresses waited for the Queen in the grey and silver heights of the concert hall like children in a classroom watching for the teacher.Invited by Prime Minister Mulro-ney to a gala of the performing arts, the audience of 2,000 craned to watch for the arrival of Queen Elizabeth at the beribboned royal box.There to mark Canada’s cultural coming of age, they were a handpicked group of achievers in the arts, business and politics — including some of the party organizers responsible for the federal Conservative victory.Yet the eagerness to see the Queen in her diamond tiara bubbled through the sophistication.When she finally appeared smiling in her sequinned sage green evening gown, ruby and diamond earrings sparkling below the tiara, the hush in the hall was childlike.And when the Toronto Symphony conducted by an exuberant Andrew Davis launched into God Save the Queen, every eye was on the royal couple, seated next to Mulroney and his wife Mila.The informal hour-long program conducted in a bilingual banter by ballerina Veronica Tennant and Radio-Canada announcer Pierre McNi-coll highlighted Canada’s cultural strides in music, song and dance.ARTISTS PERFORMED Singer Catherine McKinnon did a hearty play of Sail On, Nova Scotia and percussionist Marie Josee Simard, who started her career in Mulroney’s home town of Baie Comeau, Que., appeared to delight Prince Philip with her humorous sound effects and flashing work on the xylophones.Frank Augustyn of the National Ballet paired with Evelyn Hart of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet for a light dance tribute to Ontario's 200th birthday.Also scoring high with the audience was Jon Kimura Parker, who last week became the first Canadian to win the Leeds International Piano Competition in England But the show-stopper, who wowed the audience with his talent and rivalled the Queen herself for poise, was 12-year-old Corey Cerovsek of Vancouver.The classical violin performance by the youngster in a pint sized blue tuxedo earned him the Ion gest applause of the evening, a spontaneous handshake from conductor Davis and a smile from the monarch.Later, after meeting privately with the artists, the Queen and a beaming Mulroney moved through the throng in the lobby while the prime minister introduced her to a number of old friends.One was Bill Vankoughnet, Conservative MP for Hastings-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington — “United Empire Loyalist country” — who brought his mother Andrea.“She’s really beautiful, isn’t she,” Mrs.Vankoughnet said after the smiling Queen spoke quietly with them about the Loyalist traditions in the MONTREAL (CP) — A group of 13 Montrealers has claimed the jackpot prize of $4,852,874 in the final federal Sport Select baseball pool.Two of the 13, Maurice Popowycz and Paul Schaller, presented the winning ticket late Monday at the Canada Sports pool office where it was put through a screening process for verification.“When I was going to work this morning, I didn’t have $5 in my pocket to pay for my parking,” said Ken Ka-lino, one of the other winners.He added that he plans to invest his share of the winnings — $280,000 — and will continue working.The winners worked together at a downtown office and had played the pool since it began operating May 1.The other winners were Henry Her-melin, Denis Louillard, Michele La-flamme, Barry Lipson, Ursula MacDonald, Debbie Spaiches, Ron Duy, P.Blum, Nicole Decary and Norman Bernstein.Kalino said he and the others put in $28.60 each and bought 250 tickets on the last draw.WANT TICKETS Popowycz and Schaller said they were both baseball fans and might spend some of their winnings on tickets for major league baseball’s World Series to be played in the United States later this month Kalino explained the group had purchased “a whole block of numbers” for the draw because of the amount of the grand prize and the possibility that if the big prize wasn’t won the $4.8 million would be distributed to secondary winners.A week ago Friday, Sports Minister Otto Jelinek and Health Minister Jake Epp announced in Ottawa that the new federal government was ending the pool because it was losing money.The pool, which began operating May 1, had already built up a deficit of $46.5 million, they said The last draw was set for Sept.30.The pool, started by the previous Bay of Quinte area of southeastern Ontario.Earlier Monday, the royal couple made a flying trip to two southwestern Ontario communities, visiting the province’s oldest Protestant church at one stop and upstaging U.S.President Reagan at the other.During their first visit to Windsor in 25 years, they were feted to a flypast by a Second World War Spitfire as they toured Dieppe Gardens, named in honor of Essex Scottish Regiment Liberal government over objections from the Conservatives, was supposed to provide funds for the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics but had lost more than $1 million a week since the beginning.Since the pool wasn’t expected to ROUYN, Que.(CP) — Falconbridge Copper Ltd.closed its Rouyn processing mill Monday as little progress was reported in attempts to end a protest by miners in a lunchroom one ki lometre below ground at the compa ny’s Corbet mine at nearby Lac-Dufault.The protesters began the occupation Friday to press for the resigna tion of mine manager Raymond Gae tan.They also want undisclosed changes in work shedules.The disruption of activity at the mine, which yields copper and zinc, stopped the flow of raw materials to the processing mill, causing it to close.About 25 workers were laid off.Company secretary James Da Costa said in an interview from Toronto that management and union representatives met above ground on Monday, but, “Nothing appears to have been resolved.” It was reported the company has prohibited further visits to the underground protesters by Gilles Galar-neau, president of their United Steelworkers of America local.An exception was granted Monday.Galameau went down with a doctor and a nurse, but Da Costa said the workers refused to meet with the me dical team.The union president was also accompanied by Gilles Baril, the local member of the Quebec national assembly, and two union officials They met with the protesters for about 30 minutes and Galameau said the miners are determined to hold out until their demands are met soldiers killed in the 1942 Dieppe raid in France.Meanwhile, the U.S.president was in Detroit, a couple of kilometres across the river from Windsor, but that didn’t stop a large number of Americans from going to see the Queen.“We can see him (Reagan) anytime — we can even see him on the late movies if we want to,” said Patricia Campbell of Cleveland, Ohio.“We’ve loved her (the Queen) all our lives.” make a profit for some time, Jelinek said, the cabinet had decided to kill it.Termination notices were sent to 673 employees, he said, leaving 102 people to wind things up.In addition to the objections from the Tories, the provinces and the Na- Da Costa said 26 workers are involved.The mine, which employs about 150, has been closed for safety reasons, but heating and ventilation of the shaft continue.CITES SAFETY Da Costa said he didn’t know whether the laid-off men would be paid while the mine is closed.But the decision to close “is purely for safety reasons.It would not be wise to carry on normal operations."

The suit alleges the stories about his financial and legal dealings have jeo pardized his recent appointment as ambassador to Portugal.The former member of Parliament has demanded $1 million for loss of reputation, embarrassment, anguish, pain and suffering,” $225,000 for the possible loss of the ambassadorship, $500,IKK) for loss of future earnings and $200,000 in punitive damages.He also requests The Gazette be or dered to publish the court judgment on its front page.“Once the suit is launched, it isditfi cult to comment,’’ said Mel Morris, managing editor of The Gazette.Mackasey based his suit on a series of articles published in The Gazette between March 10, 1983, and Sept 24, 1984 He alleges reporter William Mar-sden was the principal participant in the preparation of articles ‘ 'written in order to damage the reputation of the plaintiff in a reckless and malicious manner.” Reporters Rod Macdonell and Ro bert Winters are named for “collabo ration” in the preparation of the ar tides.In March 1983, The Gazette repor ted allegations by Robert Harrison, former president of the Montreal Board of Trade and Mackasey's for mer financial adviser, that Mackasey tional and American baseball leagues also opposed the pool.The provinces claimed the pool was infringing on their exclusive right to operate lotte ries, while major league baseball charged the operation would damage its reputation ta said he doesn't think the occupation is related to that Clement G o d b o u t, United Steelworkers's Quebec director, said Sunday the miners' action “is a protest against humiliations they have been subjected to for too long because of a mine manager who treats them in a disrespectful, unworthy and arrogant fashion.” Reached by phone, mine manager Gaétan refused to comment.He said he didn’t know whether the men below ground were receiving food Their families, some of whom splinter that had lodged in his eye while chopping wood at his summer cottage in North Hatley The convalescence that followed, including therapy to restore his me mory, was so difficult.Godin says, that he even contemplated suicide A published poet and journalist before entering politics, Godin, 45.said he lost almost 10 kilograms and some of his co-ordination during what he describes as the most diffi cult period of his life TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE “I cried like a child It’s so terrible to lose your memory, lose a pen, for get a name, move around slowly terrible for a man who loves action and efficiency." The rehabilitation process was a difficult one.Godin says, in which therapists gave him arithmetic les was a "paid lobbyist.” Harrison was alleged to have made the statement at bankruptcy hearings for a Montreal machine tooling firm called Les Ateliers d’usinage Hall Ltee.The allegations were later determi ned to he unfounded by the Commons Committee on Privileges and Elections Section 19 of the Senate and House of Commons Act requires the resignation of any member who receives a commission, directly or through an agent, in return for lob hying for government contracts.In the meantime, the Crown proceeded with charges of influence peddling against the former cabinet minister and Air Canada chairman, but Mackasey was acquitted when a ses sions court judge ruled there was not “a shred of evidence” to back up the charges.Related charges against Harrison and Montreal businessman Jean Bruyere were withdrawn after Mackasey's acquittal.Mackasey said in a telephone interview he did not sue for libel when the first articles appeared, choosing instead to refer the newspaper articles to the Commons committee."What is important is that a judge, weighing all the evidence, hearing 15 witnesses and assessing 150 pages of documents, exonerated me,” he said.Harrison — who is also suing The Gazette as a result of the articles — and Bruyere have since been charged in connection with the bankruptcy of Les Ateliers and are still before the courts.Mackasey testified for several days at Harrison’s preliminary hearing during the summer and alleges in his suit The Gazette has, in its coverage of the Harrison case, caused him “great personal prejudice.” “This continuous assault," the suit says, has caused him to lose “an otherwise sterling reputation.” Much of Mackasey’s testimony at the preliminary hearing dealt with a $625,000 debt the former M P once had with the Bank of Montreal.Mackasey’s appointment as ambassador in July was proposed by former prime minister Pierre

communities portfolio during a ea binet change last week, retaining only responsibility for the non education aspects of Bill 101, Que bee’s controversial language law While regretting his diminished

million-dollar deals By Darryl Gibson TOKYO (CF) — Deals signed between Quebec biotechnological and natural gas firms and Japanese companies should bring millions of dollars in business to Quebec, Her nard Landry, provincial international relations and external trade minister, said in Tokyo today.Landry said an agreement between I’lnstitute Armand-Frappier of Laval and the Protein Research Foundation of Osaka, Japan, will allow the two biotechnology firms to act as sole marketing agents for each others pro- ducts in Canada and Japan, to undertake joint research and development of new biotechnical products and to distribute each others goods around the world, although not as exclusive agents outside their home countries.Aurele Beaulnes, managing director of Armand-Frappier, said the agreement, which should be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars this year and millions in subsequent years, means the two companies will be able to produce new vaccines, other pharmaceuticals and synthetic and natural biological building blocks at a faster rate than if each carried out research independently.Of particular interest to the Japanese are Armand-Frappier pharmaceuticals and hormones as well as technical expertise, while the Canadian firm hopes to get peptides and other proteins already developed by the Japanese company.From the basic chemical substances imported from Japan Armand-Frappier will conduct further research and development of new products quicker than would otherwise be possible, Beaulnes said.STRIKES AGAIN For Armand-Frappier, a major Laval based biotechnological company with about 500 employees, the agreement is the second major deal in Japan this year.In the spring, the company signed a secret agreement with Mitsui Pharmaceutical with similar provisions.Protein Research Foundation, founded 20 years ago in western Japan, does biotechnical research and produces a wide range of peptides.The natural gas deal, signed between Osaka Gas and Gaz Métropolitain of Quebec, calls for technological co-operation in the industry by the two companies.The agreement gives Gaz Métropolitain use and marketing of Osaka Gas technology related to gas-fired ap pliances and allows for adaptation of the Japanese technology to Canadian needs.Valid for a minimum of five years, the technology transfer will have several spinoff effects in Canada that should more than offset the cost of acquiring the technology, according to Gaz Metroplitain senior vice-president Joseph Baladi.The purchase price was not disclosed.Osaka Gas is a leading Japanese utility which reportedly spends in excess of $40 million a year in research and development.The two agreements are the first concrete examples of success in Premier René Lévesque’s current economic mission to South Korea, Japan, China and Hong Kong.Lévesque plans go-ahead News-in-brief on controversial park MONTREAL (CP) — Premier René Lévesque will propose the creation of a provincial park in five locations bordering the rivers and lakes around Montreal Island when he opens a new session of the Quebec national assembly Oct.16.Called the Parc National de l’Archipel, the proposal would be developed over a five year period starting next year at a cost of more than $130 mil lion, TheCanadian Press has learned.The park appears to be the first concrete result of a four-year feasibi lity study called Project Archipel that will have cost the government and its agencies more than $44 million by the time a scheduled final report is issued in December next year.Originally conceived as a multi-use water project combining flood control with development of hydroelectric and recreational facilities, the project has been continuing quietly since stormy public hearings in 1981.While no decisions have been reached on the hydro development in the Lachine rapids, sources said the complex and controversial study, including its environmental impact, now is entirely in the hands of Hydro-Quebec.The latest Hydro proposal, on which the utility is spending $11.5 million this year alone, would harness 600 megawatts of electricity from a point just above the rapids in the St.Lawrence River, a rich feeding and breeding ground for a range of wildlife including trout and heron Hydro’s plans have been denounced by M oha w k I ndi a ns on the south shore reserve of Kahnawake, three

Campaign kick-off: John Buchanan and pal Brian BROOKLYN.N.S (CP) — In one of the first speeches of his election cam paign.Premier John Buchanan reminded voters Monday night that Canada has a new prime minister, one he can see eye-to-eye with on most matters Buchanan, who is seeking re-election Nov 6, told a nominating convention that Brian Mulroney is committed to a new era of federal provincial relations.Mulroney’s Progressive Conservatives swept into power Sept.4 ‘‘I believe our Progressive Conservative government is the best team to negotiate with the new federal government on behalf of Nova Scotians,” the Tory premier said While praising his government’s re- cord in office.Buchanan said a provincial government cannot accomplish many things without help He said items such as interest rates, monetary policy, tariff policy and restrictions on foreign investment are all influenced by the federal government.“The prime minister has indicated he wants Canada’s federal and provincial governments working from a common agenda so we can build a stronger Canada,” he said Buchanan said his government will ask the federal government to review regional development policy.The government will also request that all federal departments be required to assess and report on the effects of departmental policies in the regions.Phone union backs Bell in anti-deregulation fight TORONTO (CP) — Ma Bell’s big gest union is rushing to her defence in a campaign against a proposal that would deregulate much of Canada’s telephone industry and expose the giant phone company to competition.Federal

it works well,” said union president Fred Pomeroy.“This deregulation will just mean higher prices and worse service.” SEES JOB LOSS Pomeroy acknowledged the union has a vested interest in opposing the CNCP plan because it believes deregulation will cost jobs.Asked if his union was defending a monopoly, Pomeroy said, “You’re probably right,” but “There’s some good arguments why it's been a monopoly.” Ztecunl George Maclaren, Publisher Charles Bury, Editor Lloyd G.Scheib, Advertising Manager Mark Guillette, Press Superintendent Richard Lessard.Production Manager Debra Waite,
