McKenna warned."The message I direct is to all of them and to Canadians.Canadians are going to have to get behind us as we try to search our way-through this impasse." Murray, the federal point man on Meech.toured the provinces over the long weekend trying to find ways to resolve the impasse.He also met Monday with Newfoundland Premier Clyde Wells and P E I.Premier Joe Ghiz.LACK CONCENSUS "There is not.at the moment, the kind of concensus that would let me say a first ministers’ conference called today would succeed,” Murray told reporters in Fredericton."But I’ve got other consultations to do.Premiers are going to be in touch with each other." Murray said much the same thing in Charlottetown after meet ing Ghiz.who wants a first ministers' meeting on the accord.In rain-drenched St.John's.Nfld.Murray talked constitutional compromise with Wells, whose government rescinded that province's approval of the accord last month.During their meeting.Murray and Wells exchanged legal texts with proposals on how to deal with objections that provinces have to the accord, w hich must be ratified by Ottawa and all provinces by-June 23.The federal papers build upon the recommendations of the Com mons committee report, which proposed passing Meech Lake and a companion resolution by the June deadline.The Newfoundland text prop- osed a series of clauses to add onto the pact."1 see a real desire on the part of all premiers to find a solution to this problem tint there's no point kidding you about it, there are substantial differences on the table." said Murray.LIMIT ISSUES "What 1 would like to see happen in the next few days is to narrow those down considerably to the point where we can hold a first ministers conference with only a few issues to crunch and to resolve." So what we've tried to do is come up with some means of addressing Newfoundland’s concerns through this concept of an add on.w ithout directly ammending Meech Lake." said Wells in a separate interview Monday.Saying he saw some sign ot movement in the federal government’s position.Wells said talks with Murray's office w ill continue m the coming days The accord would make Quebec a willing partner in the Constitution and increase provincial powers in several areas such as the appointment of senators.New Brunswick and Manitoba, who want changes to the accord, have also not approved the pact.Quebec

quits over PQ flap OTTAWA (CP) — Lucien Bouchard, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney’s Quebec lieutenant, resigned Monday, dealing what is likely to be a crippling blow to the Meech Lake accord.After an hour-long meeting at the prime minister's residence, Bouchard and Mulroney agreed would resign, sources said.Bouchard.52, was considered the leader of the nationalists in the til-member Quebec Conservative caucus.His resignation is likely to be seen by other Quebec nationalists as a rejection of a special House of Commons committee report that recommended the Meech Lake Accord be ratified along with several add-ons contained in a companion resolution.Mulroney, who counts Bouchard among his oldest and closest political friends, was forced to accept his resignation after the former environment minister sent words of encouragement to the Parti Québécois.In a telegram sent to a PQ meeting in Alma.Bouchard praised those who fought for an independent Quebec during the 1980 referendum."The referendum directly concerns us all." said the telegram sent while Bouchard was in Europe."Hs commemoration is another occasion to remind everyone of the honesty, (he pride and the generosity of the Yes’ vote that we all defended around René Lévesque and his team.” Bouchard went on to write: “The memory of René Lévesque unites us all this weekend, for he helped Quebecers discover the inalienable right to decide for themselves their destiny.” His resignation could not have come at a worse time for Mulroney or for the Meech Lake Accord.He refused to apologize for the telegram Sunday after arriving from Paris at Mirabel airport outside Montreal.He said he was proud of having worked for sovereignty-association and praised former PQ leader René Lévesque.He also refused to com merit on the committee report.The telegram outraged opposition MPs in Ottawa, but was that the environment minister greeted with a standing ovation hy PQ workers in Alma after it was read aloud Saturday by astonished party leader Jacques Parizeau.One Quebec Tory, François Gérin, preceded Bouchard's exit by quitting the party caucus last week over (hi' committee report, saying it was an unnaceptable change to Meech Lake.Gérin said Quebec MPs were “traumatized and split" over the report and hinted some cabinet ministers from that province were also pondering their political fu turc in light of its recommendations.Gérin refused to name those ministers, but predicted that other Quebec MPs would likely follow him out of caucus over Ihe summer.But Bouchard’s resignation

long way to go before they’re out of dian Wildlife Service 25 years ago By Ed Struzik Edmonton Journal FORT SMITH.N W T (CP) -Thirty minutes into a flight over Wood Buffalo National Park, biologist Ernie Kuyt signals the pilot to circle the aircraft The four-seat Cessna banks sharply to the left, makes a couple of dizzying turns and then plunges like a roller-coaster toward the snow-patched muskeg.Magically, (he lily-white form of a five-foot-tall whooping crane appears out of the tilur on the ground.She gracefully rises and displays her nest.“One egg,’’ shouts Kuyt as he marks the spot on the map.“It wasn't there Sunday, so I wouldn t be surprised if she just laid it today.“ The plane climbs and it's off to the next nesting site in the park, this one on the Alberta side of the Alberta-Northwest Territories boundary where the province’s only known breeding pair of whooping cranes are nesting.Kuyt treasures springtime monitoring flights when he spots the first birds back from their wintering site at the National Wildlife Refuge in Aransas, Tex.“It’s quite a thrill to know that they’ve arrived back safely one more time,” he says.Kuyt was assigned by the Cana- to help bring the whooping crane back from the brink of extinction.Although many people have been involved in the program, no one has been at it longer or pursued it more enthusiastically than Kuyt .a tall, owlish man of 82.“The cranes have become his life,” says Graham Cooch, who assigned Kuyt to the job a quarter century ago “Ernie lives and breathes whooping cranes 1 m sure he even thinks like them." COME LONG W AY The whoopers have come a long way since the day Kuyt started working with them in 19(>.r>.No more than 40 whooping cranes so named for their bugle like call were living in the wild at the time, up from the low of 15 counted in 1941 Last autumn.American biologists counted 140 whoopers at the refuge at Arkansas.If the current trend continues, Kuyt and his colleagues predict there will almost certainly be 200 of them by the turn of the century.And although the whoopers will still have a long way to go before they're out of the woods, Kuyt says the sneriex’ chance for long-term survival will be the best it’s been in nearly a century.Kuyt’s experiences with the whoopers have included everything from snatching eggs from their nests in Wood Buffalo Park so they can be artifically incubated to following the whoopers by plane on their 4.000-kilometres migration flight to the south coast of Texas.Forever on the lookout for anything that may threaten the birds, Kuyt has forced people to stop interfering with their migration.The Canadian Forces Snowbird aerobatic team, for example, no longer performs over Fort Smith in the springtime because of Kuyt’s objections.Once Kuyt even convinced the U.S military to stop firing its artillery as a family of migrating cranes were heading into the shelling range.With the whoopers still in serious trouble in 1967, Canada and the United States formed a team of scientists who would snatch eggs from nests for artificial incubation, WORTH \ TRY “A lot of people thought we had no right disturbing the nests,” says Kuvt ‘'Mot it was worth a trv he the woods cause we knew there were two eggs in a clutch and that only one bird survived.” In May.while females are on the nest, the scientists use a helicopter to get to each site.With the helicopter's approach, the1 female moves away for the short time it takes Kuyt and an assistant to slog through the marsh.At the nest, Kuyt places the two eggs in a warm bucket of water.Any movement tells him the egg is a good one.If both eggs contain live chicks, he places one in a warm sock and takes it to the portable incubator in the helicopter.The resulting chicks arc eventually transported by American biologists to wildlife centres in Maryland or Idaho, where Sandhill cranes raise the young whoopers as if they were their own.If both eggs in the whooper’s nest are bad.Kuyt replaces them with a good one.The egg-swapping tech nique has increased the hatching success in Wood Buffalo by about 20 per cent.Kuyt is enjoying the way things have turned out “I think we may soon see an explosion in the population of these whoopers.And then I can reallv enjoy mv retirement “ Whooping crane facts and figures: By The Canadian Press Facts and figures about the whooping crane: SIZE: : The whooping crane is the tallest of all birds in North America.An adult male stands 1.5 metres tall and weighs as much as 7.5 kilograms FLYING ABILITY: Despite its large size, the whooping crane is a superb, graceful flyer.While the average flight speed is about 45 kilometres an hours, a strong tail wind allows the w hooper to reach speeds of over 100.DIET: The whooperis capable of killing a variety of prey, from the larvae of insects to snakes, mice and ducklings RELATIVES: The whooping crane is cousin to the Sandhill crane.They are the only wild cranes in North America.TERRITORY: In winter, a typical pair of whoopers will defend about 1.7 square kilometres of area.In springand summer, a breeding pair will establish a territory of some five kilometres.The bugle-like call of the birds is usually sufficient to ward off other cranes from entering the area QUOTE: We have to be thankful that we have a large, protected, inaccessible area like Wood Buffalo National Park for the whoopers.If we hadn't.I'm not sure that we would have any wild whoopers left today.'’ (Ernie Kuyt, Canadian Wildlife Service biologist.) 1 A- 2—The RK(ORI)—Tuesday.May 22.1S90 Independence: PQ welcomes Meech spinoffs Hy Rita Legault SHERBROOKE — The referendum was an important step toward Quebec sovereignty — which is appearing "more and more nor- mal.close, desirable and inevitable", says the president of the Sherbrooke Parti Québécois.Today many Quebecers who were not ready to vote yes in 1980 have reconsidered independence and are ready to vote for it.says PQ organizer Henri Bourassa."Federalism is no longer profitable for Quebec." Bourassa said in an interview Monday."That’s true since Confederation but it is clear- Gérin: Meech muzzle the last straw for nationalist MP OTTAWA (CP) — Mercurial Quebec MP François Gérin quit the Conservative caucus Friday accusing Prime Minister Brian Mulroney of abandoning Quebec by supporting additions to the Meech Lake accord.Looking drained, Gérin told a hushed, near-empty House of Commons his conscience no longer allowed him to sit as a Conservative because he was being muzzled by Mulroney.The prime minister and some members of cabinet had asked him not to voice his objections to the François Gérin.Couldn't accept Meech muzzle.all party committee calling for a companion agreement to be grafted to Meech Lake.“For someone to ask me to be quiet on a matter so important to Quebec and Canada, I can’t accept.” said Gérin, 45, adding he will take orders only from his constituents.The last few weeks and the effort to reach a constitutional compromise had changed Mulroney, who no longer “says the same things he did six years ago” when his government was elected in 1984, said Gérin SHAKING HANDS “I feel the future of Canada and Quebec will now result in sovereignty-association,” said the member from Megantic-Compton-Stanstead.Several Quebec MPs rushed to Gérin’s seat to shake hands and wish him well.He said the Quebec Tory caucus was "totally traumatized and split on the question of Meech Lake” and predicted that others may follow him.Gérin’s decision to cross the floor comes as no shock.He seemed destined for a showdown with Mulroney since being upbraided by the prime minister at a Tory caucus soul-searching session earlier this month at Mont-Tremblant.“If a member decides at some point in time that his view is incompatible with his own aspirations, then he can pack it in,” said Mulroney, who called Gérin “a big boy” well aware of the consequ- ences of public dissent.After the release of the committee report — which Gérin said would weaken constitutional guarantees won by Quebec under Meech Lake — the sharp-featured lawyer chose to pack it in.SAYS GOODBYE Gérin said he was sorry to leave during troubled times for the Conservative party, but he could not remain if views on a matter as important as the constitution could not be freely expressed.A lawyer, Gérin campaigned for the federalist cause in the 1980 sovereignty-association referendum.His sprawling Eastern Townships riding has seen English and French living side by side for generations among the pines and maples that decorate the rolling hills.Gérin’s resignation from the Conservative caucus leaves the standing in the Commons at: Conservatives 164; Liberals 82; and New Democrats 43.There are now three Independents and one Reform party MP.Two Alberta MPs — David Kil-gour and Alex Kindy — also left Conservative ranks over policy matters recently.They were booted out of caucus in April for their vocal opposition to the government’s planned seven-per-cent goods and services tax.Gérin, Kilgour and Kindy now make up the Independent contingent in the Commons.Canada: Constitutional By Sharon McCully MONTREAL — A pot pourri of political opinion converged during a weekend conference organized by.the Centre for Democracy and Human Rights, a Montreal association supporting the principle of constitutional change by referendum.Speakers at the conference included Concordia University professor Graeme Decarie, constitutional lawyer Julius Grey, Unity party founder Maurice King, Equality leader Robert Libman, Heather Keith Ryan, former president of Townshippers Association and independent candidate in the last provincial election, and Ed Vanwoudenberg, leader of the B C -based Christian Heritage Party of Canada.Guest of honor was former McGill law professor John Humphrey, co author of the universal declaration of human rights.While not all speakers were married to the idea of a constitution by referendum, there was consensus that hastily forged agreements among first ministers without broad consultation is a formula for disaster.SHOULD BE HARD Lawyer Grey said that once a constitutional agreement has been reached, a constitution should be very difficult to amend.“Only when a large majority of Canadians call for it.and then, only if no significant minority group will be affected by the changes, should a constitution be amended,” Grey said.Grey added that a constitution which is too easily amended opens the door to appeasing the self-interests of governments or special interest groups with clout.Historian Decarie agreed."Deal-making among the power brokers is breaking up the country," Decarie said.“There’s a deep sense of disunity and disinterest in Canada because the Canadian people have never been a part of the constitutional decision making.” “The constitution is the property of the people of Canada, something that touches the people of Canada, that only the people have the power to change,” Decarie said.EQUALITY BRIGADE Of the 100 — mostly English speakers — attending the day-long conference, many were from the rank and file of the Equality party.A delegation of party supporters from the Eastern Townships and the Chauteauguay Valley were also on hand.One young francophone student at Concordia said she was upset with what she considered anti-French sentiments expressed by at least one speaker at the conference.Meanwhile, another anglophone verbally assaulted Townshipper Keith-Ryan in the lobby for what he perceived as her pro-French, anti-English stance.Part of the conference was de- #1___frej IFECPm Randy Klnnear, Publisher .569-9511 Charles Bury, Editor .569-6345 Lloyd G.Scheib, Advertising Manager.569-9525 Richard Lessard, Production Manager.569-9931 Mark Gulllette, Press Superintendent .569-9931 Guy Renaud, Graphics .569-4856 Francine Thibault, Composition.569-9931 CIRCULATION DEPT.819-569-9528 KNOWLTON OFF.: 514-243-0088 FAX: (819) 569-39 4 5 Subscriptions by Carrier: weekly: Subscriptions by Mail: Canada: 1 year- 6 months-3 months-1 month- U.S.& Foreign: 1 year- 6 months 3 months 1 month- Established February 9, 1897, incorporating the Sherbrooke Gazette (est.1837) and the Sherbrooke Examiner (est.1879).Published Monday to Friday by The Record Division, Groupe Québécor Inc.Offices and plant located at 2850 Delorme Street, Sherbrooke, Quebec, J1K 1A1.Second class registration number 1064.Member of Canadian Press Member of the Audit Bureau of Circulation $1.80 $74.00 $4400 $30.60 $1500 $151.00 $92.00 $62.00 $3200 Back copies of The Record are available at the following prices: Copies ordered within a month of publications 60c per copy.Copies ordered more than a month after publication: $1 10 per copy voted to discussing ways to promote and protect the French language and culture.KNOW THY NEIGHBOR Keith Ryan suggested that if anglo-Quebecers are to be their “brother’s keeper” as the conference sub-title suggested, it would be a good idea to get to know their francophone neighbors.“How many of you read the French press,” she asked?In a fire and brimstone address, the outspoken King claimed that to promote and protect French in Quebec, three counterfeit arguments advanced by the “cultural chauvinist leadership of Quebec” must be overcome."They are: that bilingualism means losing the French languag-e; that the English-speaking community is against the French language; and that the people of Quebec support the denial of individual rights and intolerant laws against their minority.” King said the English-speaking community is the first line of defence in maintaining French in Quebec.“We understand the needs and aspirations of French Quebec and we are able to explain the need for bilingualism to the rest of Canada,” he said.FINDING A BALANCE Equality leader Libman said the challenge continues to be to find a balance between the protection of individual rights and the right of a collectivity.Libman said section one of the Weather RAINY KAMI ANN HOIK il Sill KltROOKI HI Ml NI AH Y SOKMH Unseasonably cool today with occasional rain.High II.Cloudy and remaining c o o I o n Wednesday.Chance of showers with a high of 12.er and clearer now.” Bourassa, just returned from Alma where the FQ held its annual meeting and a celebration remembering the referendum, said Quebecers and the FQ must support Premier Robert Bourassa s Meech Lake efforts SUPPORT PREMIER “As long as Bourassa is fighting for us we must support him," Bourassa insisted “If he is humiliated — we are all humiliated.” He said when the fight is over it will be up to Quebecers to decide who can best lead them.As for Sherbrooke MP Jean Charest.whose "grocery list for Quebec w'as an absolute failure”, Bourassa said he is not impressed."If Charest expects Quebec to fall on its knees for that — than he is sorely mistaken." Bourassa said, adding that he doesn’t think people in the region are very proud of Charest and his efforts.Bourassa said he remembers the tears and the speeches of May 20 1980.Returning from his polling booth in St François riding where the results were close, he was surprised to find his PQ mates crying.RYAN, LEVESQUE He said he remembers Claude Ryan’s speech as bitter and vindictive despite the win of the No forces.And he remembers the speech by René Lévesque, positive despite his defeat and calming to the crowds — and avoiding a possible riot.Bourassa said he also remembers the climate of fear during the referendum debate, as set by Ryan and then prime minister Pierre Trudeau.Bourassa said that fear no longer exists.He said Quebecers are confident in their future and fear tactics no longer work.He points to Merrill Lynch’s re- cent declaration that it would be business as usual in an independent Quebec.Top members of Quebec’s business community have said they would not fear independence and some said they would even welcome the idea, Bourassa said."Our fears have been dissipated.” he said."We’re as good as anyone, as good as Ontario.” ment in the rest of Canada is helping the party rise from the ashes."After being humiliated — that’s enough." he said, recalling images of APEC i Association for the Preservation of English in Canada! stomping on Quebec's flag."That helped us a lots," he admits."If they wanted to put us down, they lost.It gave us the strength to get up again." NOTHING FOR QUEBEC Bourassa said Quebecers are tired of seeing western farmers get billions when there is nothing for Quebec, of seeing Maritime fishermen get millions where there is just about nothing for Quebec.Bourassa said Quebecers are suffering from interest rates kept artificially high for the sake of Ontario industries.“Federal authorities are slowing down the Quebec economy, are increasing unemployment in Quebec, because of problems in Ontario." The longtime PQ militant, president of the Sherbrooke riding association since 1982, said there were difficult times for the party over the past ten years.“We wondered if we weren't carrying the torch for nothing,” he said.But Bourassa said the rejuvenated PQ is winning more members.He admits that unhappiness over the Meech Lake inpasse is pushing people into the arms of the party.EVERYONE WELCOME Bourassa said the PQ will gladly welcome former politicians of any political stripe, such as former Tories François Gérin and Lucien Bouchard.Bourassa predicted more resignations including that of Shef-ford Liberal MP Jean Lapierre, who has already said he cannot work with Jean Chrétien.Bourassa said anti Quebec senti- Henri Bourassa.PQ membership growing.change by referendum?" federal rights charter allowed the proper balance between the two goals, but the Liberal government chose to override the charter by passing Law 178.Conference organizer and director of the Centre for Democracy.Jerry Kazenel presented Hum phrey with the organization’s annual award.Mount Royal Liberal M P David Berger, a former law student of Humphrey, introduced him.The 85 year old recipient told the audience to take advantage of Canada s bilingual and bicultural nature.“It’s the only thing that distinguishes us from our American neighbors."

Church: ‘Healing some of the wounds’ friendly, first-names atmosphere.Rev.Burn Purdon.newly installed president of the church’s Mon-treal-Ottawa conference, told more than 450 delegates from across Quebec and eastern Ontario to open their hearts to the words of the hymns they sang together during the long weekend.'We have sung of the search for what we believe in, and the search for what we hope we are." Purdon told the closing session of the four day ‘court'."The walls which divide us can be knocked down,” Purdon added in his bilingual address.SEVERAL YEARS For several years, the United Church of Canada has been wrangling over the sexual orientation of priests; and that issue triggered some hostility among the divided delegates.Some delegates left the confer ence a day early after bitterly protesting the ordination Saturday of a cleric they accused of being homosexual The man was one of nine new ministers accepted into the church.Purdon.pastorof Granby United Church, said he was disappointed that the recurring homosexuality debate still detracts from more im portant church questions POVERTY “The main theme of the meeting was poverty recognizing Lazar us among us',” said the tall, bearded churchman."I hope the people have gone home with more concern about that than about the other issue,” Purdon said in an interview after the closing service Monday afternoon."The other issue” has caused the church serious harm and it s time to shift the healing process into high gear.Purdon said.“The challenge is to help heal some of the wounds,” he added “We have to work toward recon ciliation.to bring the people back together." “There has been a lot of struggle, a lot of hurt," Purdon said.Some delegates left early after the angry exchanges over homosexuality, but “they didn't say why." "This was a big regret." he added.SONGSTER Although he was elected Montreal and Ottawa Conference president mainly for his administrative skills.Purdon turns out to be something of a song-writer as well.After receiving the traditional green scarf.Bible and gavel of office from predecessor Rev.Allen Tysick.he led more than 400 delegates in a stirring rendition of his new hymn Worthy Is the One Who Comes Mysteriously, for which he composed both lyrics and melody Many delegates hugged and held hands during the singing a re flection of the almost intimate atmosphere which frequently fil led the big gym at Bishop's where the meetings were held.Elected secretary of the Conference was Rev.Martyn Sadler of Sherbrooke’s Plymouth-Trinity United.Sadler was particularly proud of a resolution adopted unanimously by the church court, to condemn recent vandalism in Jewish cemeteries.IN OUR PRAYERS’ Proposed by Rev.Keith Eddy and seconded by David Estey.the motion “Resolved that, as fellow believers in the one true God, the M&< ) Conference abhors the recent desecration on Jewish cemeteries at Quebec City and near Ottawa; that we commiserate with the Jewish community in their pain and suffering and assure them that we stand with them and remember them in our prayers.” One of the resolution’s origina tors was David Munnof Brome Village.Referring to earlier waves of anti semitism in Canada, Munn said he fears “the silence of Christians" has contributed to current anti-Jewish sentiment, which he called "that monstrous and lunatic wickedness." Munn reminded the delegates that many of them were old enough to remember World War II.and that Canada was wrong when it “accepted fewer Jewish refugees than any other developed country".Calling for the church to act, he urged the delegates to keep remembering.“Let us not repeat the errors of the past." Taking over: Rev.Allen Tysick, right, hands Rev.Burn Pardon a Bible, gavel and scarf, symbols of authority for the president of the Montreal-Ottawa Conference oj the United Church. 4—The RKCORD—Tuesday, May 22.1990 —_____!!!gl üocara The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial ^^mSSSS^SSSSSSSSSSmSSSSm To advance his own agenda Constituents of Megantic Compton Stanstead should call for the immediate resignation of François Gérin.the man they elected to represent them in the House of Commons.Gérin resigned from the federal Conservative party last week over his discontent with a committee report on Meech Lake.He told reporters he will sit as an Independent in the House of Commons and fight for Quebec sovereignty.There is no ambiguity in Quebec members of Parliament using their position in the House of Commons to fight for Quebec.Indeed if Quebec MPs don't explain the needs and aspirations of Quebec, and plead for understanding, who will?And there is no apparent conflict in Quebec MPs fighting passionately for passage of the Meech Lake Accord and the acceptance of Quebec as a distinct society.It’s a different kettle of fish however, to sit in the House of Commons and fight for the separation and dismemberment of the country.Voters in Megantic-Compton-Stanstead elected Gérin to represent them in all matters of federal jurisdiction.Like constituents in every corner of the country, they have a right to representation on the policies and legislation which affect their daily lives.Who will speak for the citizens of Megantic-Compton-Stanstead on matters of health, the environment, unemployment insurance and economic development, while François Gérin is pouting in the corner?Voters in the last federal election were not asked to elect a federal representative to represent them on the issue of sovereignty-association.Nor am I aware of any plebiscite in Megantic-Compton-Stanstead to suggest that the people of that riding favor Quebec independence.François Gérin has abused the position accorded him by the voters of the riding to advance his own agenda.If Mr.Gérin wants to support the cause of Quebec sovereignty, he should resign Irom federal politics and join either the governing Quebec Liberal party or the Parti Québécois.By retaining his seat in the House of Commons, Mr.Gérin is doing a grave disservice to the voters who elected him.At the same time, he is making a mockery of the democratic system and the oath he took when he was sworn in as a federal member of Parliament.Like so many other federal conservatives, Francois Gérin might not be sitting in the Commons had it not been for the support of Quebec nationalists.Before the conservative sweep of 1984, defunct Quebec conservative riding associations were easy pickings for any interest group.Conservatives knew they needed Quebec and they got it with the help of the Parti Québécois organization.Some are now finding it an ominous task to serve two masters.SHARON McCULLY Should statute of limitiations prevail in incest cases?OTTAWA (CPi This woman's story is not unusual anymore.From the ageof 16— at least— her father had sex with her until she fled home when she was 1H.What makes this incest case different is that the victim sued her father and was awarded $50.000 damages by a jury.But she can’t collect because of a statute of limitations.Mow three judges of the Supreme Court of Canada are studying the case to decide whether to hear her appeal The woman's identity is withheld to protect her and her family."It would be a perversion of justice to protect the adult perpetrator at the expense of the child victim.James Neeb.the woman's lawyer, says m a brief to the court.The woman tied home in 1075 but did not take her father to court until 10 years later.Ontario s Limita fions Act docs not allow lawsuits more than four years after an assault is committed.‘The trial judge found that from the ageof l there were 1,031 head sold on a good demand at strong to higher prices.Lambs 80-95 lb.sold from $75-$llK Newcrops sold from $109 $ 136with sales to$lll.Sheep traded from $.30-$57.Hogs Hog prices in the east continued to rise again last week with the Index 100 hog prices in Ontario ranging from $1.832-$1.850 per kg.Prices in Quebec ranged from $1.855-$!,869 per kg.Replacements In Manitoba, widespread heavy rainfall has led to some ({ptimism for improved forage drops, which will in turn translate into stronger prices for grass cattle.Heavy weight steers were in short supply on most markets with the good exotic cross cattle selling on a strong demand.The calf supply is virtually nonexistent this time of year In Saskatchewan, feeder cattle receipts were sharply lower iihd in demand.Sales were limited in most classes with small lots and singles featured.Prices were steady to higher.In southern Alberta, the receipts of feeders consisted of a good supply of 50(1-800 lb.steers and heifers of mixed quality.Sales were generally steady on the good quality lean types while fleshier kinds sold accordingly.Good to excellent quality grass ready calves met a very strong demand at fully steady prices.In central Alberta, there was a fair run of mixed quality replacements with the good largeframed grass ready feeders trading on a strong demand.There was a heavy run of replacement heifers selling fully steady to strong.In the north all classes of feeders traded fully steady with the large-framed, quality types in demand.The feeder market has improved mainly due to the improved US.teeder market and the good pasture conditions.Hogs Hog prices in Western Canada continued to rise last week as orders from U S.packers continued to be strong.Manitoba hog prices ranged from $1.748-$1.791 per kg.Saskatchewan hog prices ranged from $1.802-$1.829 per kg.Manitoba plants continue to purchase approximately 3.000 hogs per week from Saskatchewan.Alberta hog prices were stronger, ranging from $1.703-$1.733 per kg.Live trade with the U S.Slaughter cattle import numbers continue low into Ontario as some of last fall's calves begin to move to market.Slaughter cattle exports increased 25 per cent the week before last to 14.070 head with Alberta accounting tor approximately 55 per cent of the total.Feeder cattle exports dropped 18 per cent to just under 3.600 head on the week.Live hog exports declined sharply by 40 per cent to just under H.OOO head ism in Eastern Europe wilt open up new possibilities there.Finally, but most important, a competitor has surfaced.Last month at the Baris air show.Embraer.a Brazilian manufacturer of turboprop aircraft, announced it w as building a 45-seat regional jet that would be ready for delivery the same time as Canadair's RJ.in mid-1992."Our Brazilian friends rushed into print with a launch program which they had barely started to look at.' said Wohl.w ith the lofty disdain of a loyal salesman."They ot Via."Some people maybe have a perception that this is just about railways.But this is about all modes of transportation — their cost effectiveness, their integration." said Kelly, known before his 1988 retirement as the federal government's top labor mediator.The commission's mandate is huge.Officially, it is to "inquire into and report upon a national integrated inter-city passenger transportation system to meet the needs of Canada and Canadians in the 21st century and to ensure that transportation links among Canada's regions and communities are maintained and improved." "We re looking at the 21st century." LeClair said."We may not be focusing on many specifics — whether a line didn't even know w hat engine they were going to use" DATE DELAYED Embraer has since announced an engine selection, but it has pushed back the delivery date a year."I'm not trying to put down the competition, but obviously they see the fact that there's a market there, and that supports our own decision" said Wohl.Wohl refused to say how many sales are needed to make a profit for the company, which has com mitted $275 million to the program.should go there or there or whatev er.We re looking mostly at what kind of framework we should have to face the 21st century" DIVISIONS CHECKED The commission is especially in terested in whether divided .juris diction over transportation in Canada has prevented integration.Kelly said.In Canada, the federal govern ment is responsible for air and rail travel, while provinces and municipalities are responsible for highways and buses.Co-operative planning agencies may be needed to resolve friction between the two.Kelly said.Another major obstacle to in tegration is that transportation is fragmented into different sectors competing against each other, he said.but he is predict UK.N.de> ot 400 by the end ot the decade Canadair.privatized by the federal government uist over two v ears ago.is a div ision ot Bombar dier Inc The program has govern ment loans ot million Employment on the K.l program has risen to t.loo from too when it was announced, and is expected to reach 3.000 at full production by 1994 Flying at Sail kilometres an hour vv ith a range up to 2.700 kilometres, the RJ is intended to till a niche between turboprops and the larger Boeing 727 or DC-9, explained Erie MeConachie.v ice president of marketing.The first delivery will go (o Dl.T.a regional German carrier which recently announced it was taking options on 13 more li.ls.increasing its total order to 25 In Europe, the Regional Jet will be used for point to-point flights, for example Hamburg to Rome, bypassing the crowded Erankturt airport.In Canada.An Nova, which has ordered 10.will use it on I lights he tween St John s and Halifax, lor example, making the trip in pisi over an hour compared with over two hours tor the Dash SturlNiprop used now The United Stales market is carved into 35 hubs, where small aircraft cover a regional market and tev'd larger airlines The rapid I!.1 vv ill extend that re gional market, said MeConachie "They can go out further, tap lar ger markets, and still gel hack m tune to meet the bank ot larger air craft Customers include British Air ways, which lias ordered 20.Ansvtt Worldwide Vviation ot Au stralia which will buy 20; Alisartla ot Italy with 20 on order, anil Sky W est \irlines ot the U S w ith 10 Canadair believes it has a leg up on the competition because the RJ builds on the existing wide body Challenger, the only business .jet to seat four across Retooling the hangars has been relatively simple The Challenger and R.1 will he built side by side, m some eases using the same jigs General Electric is providing the CF34 engine irom Lynn, Mass .as it does toi the ('hallenger Short Brothers PLC of Northern Ireland, acquired by Bombardier in 1989, is manufacturing the entire 10 metre centre lusclage section.NOTICE OF PC GENERAL ASSEMBLY All members and friends of the Sherbrooke Progressive Conservative Association are invited to attend the yearly General Assembly of the Association which will be taking place at HOTEL LE BARON (3200 King West, Salle d’Armes C, Sherbrooke), on MONDAY, MAY 28, AT 7:30 P.M.Our Member of Parliament in the House of Commons in Ottawa, JEAN CHAREST, will be with us on this special occasion For more information, please contact Me Paul Marcel Bellevance (819) 566-4466.Toward integration range far beyond the controversy hydroquebec AT YOUR SERVICE Have any questions about your bill?You're moving?Until June 23 our telephone will be extended.You can telephone us bet 8:30 a.m.and 7 p.m.on weekdays and betw 9 a.m.and 12 noon on Sat I -g'l V K Ipj|IH liilll WM p I •' fiZJw P" • ¦ : V .Cé^MiÈÊmWmm, ' m III in WxMmimwM | The telephone number of your Customer Service Office is on your bill and in the telephone book We'll be pleased to answer you! a Our Multi-Benefit Account adds up to your benefit More than jus! a combination of saving services.WHERE A VISIT REALLY PAYS OFF!

years ago, my wife had very little.We've been living in my house, and I pay for all the groceries, utilities and insurance policies.I also pay our taxes.In the Iasi three years, my wife has inherited about $1 million in cash, stocks and real estate.She still pays only for her personal items and the upkeep of her car.We recently went on a three-week vacation, and she did not offer to pick up the check for a single meal.When I mentioned this to her, she said she was raised to believe that the husband pays for everything.I found this interesting, because she and her first husband both worked and shared expenses.When we drove to a city 100 miles away to arrange with her broker to give $10,000 in stock to each of her grandchildren (Totalling $80,000), she never offered to buy the gas.1 don't want to look like a cheapskate, but it seems to me that when a man and his wife both have an income, they should share expenses.Am I wrong?- MISSISSIPPI DEAR M.: Your wife has inherited SI

Halsall said chomping on a post-game burger at a local fast-food restaurant."We held them until the fifth," he said “1 think he iMaddissi lost his confidence.” Galt 7 Colebrook 1 The Pipers improved their record to 8-1 by sweeping a doubleheader against Colebrook Mon day afternoon in New Hampshire.Pitcher Mike Grady completed the game with a three hitter, strik ing out six Colebrook batters.Colebrook ran into trouble at the top of the first inning.The starting pitcher walked the first three Galt batters and continued the game with numerous wild pitches.Galt 11 Colebrook 7 Jeff Grapes earned the save by pitching the last four innings despite giving up three runs.He struck out six batters.Starter Mark Deboer was tagged for four runs on six hits and struck out five Colebrook batters before being relieved by Grapes.Tim Call had a hot bat for the Pipers as he went three-for-four at the plate knocking in 2 RBls.Besides pitching, Grapes contributed to the team's offensive attack w ith his three-for four performance at the plate.The Pipers next game is a doubleheader Thursday afternoon against Littleton in New Hamp shire By Bruce Macfarlane SHERBROOKE - The chances of winning the Provincial Scholastic Gymnastic championships in their own backyard turned out to be impossible for Eastern Township athletes.It has a been over nine-years since a championship banner has hung from a rafter in a Eastern Township gymnasium.Local gymnasts hoped to end the nine-year drought period but came up short.Gymnasts from the Richelieu region defended their title with ease at the 19th Provincial Scholastic Gymnastic championships at Polyvalente Le Triolet Sunday afternoon.Every category belonged to the Richlieu team except for one — the novice girls and boys category which was taken by the Quebec region.Richelieu dominated the entire event and took first place, sixty points ahead of second place Quebec.SHER'GYM The host team, Eagt&rn Townships finished ninth in the 11-team competition.Some of the best results from the host team included Dominique Pelletier who won the gold medal in the balance beam event in the adv- anced girls’ category.Koralie St Laurent collected a bronze medal on the uneven bars.In the novice girls’ division, Isabelle Pellerin won a bronze medal for her 8.9 performance on the balance beam.It was the first time in the 19-year Provincial Scholastic Gym nastic championships the event was hosted by a club.“It surpassed my expectations,” said Sher-Gym president Robert Aumais.I didn't believe it’d turnout so well." “Both athletes and judges have complimented us." he said The provincial championship event was to be cancelled this year because the original host withdrew in January.With only two and half months of preparation, the local gymnastic club managed to pull off the event.All gymnasts and team officials rolled out their sleeping bags in classrooms and ate at the school s cafeteria.The swimming pool, ping-pong tables, televisions and video-cassette recorders were also available to athletes.“We got great cooperation from the school board,” said Sher-Gym’s technical director Julie Babineau.The weekend competition started off on the right foot with a spectacular opening ceremony Friday night.Students from Le Triolet dance-troupe put on a performance while the elite group from Sher-Gym blew everybody out of the gymnasium with a stunning show.“It set the tone and put everybody in a good mood,” Aumais said.The 20th Provincial Scholastic Gymnastic championships will be held next May at Cap-de-la-Madeleine Oilers’ Messier is a contender for MVP award EDMONTON (CP) — Mark Messier is a leading contender for the NHL’s most valuable player award, and the Edmonton Oiler captain has been a Stanley Cup playoff hero before.But Messier has only picked up one assist in three games in the 1990 championship finale as the Oilers take a 2-1 series lead into Game 4 here tonight.“I know Mark can play better,” Oilers’ coach John Muckier said after the Bruins defeated Edmonton 2-1 Sunday and Messier, the 1984 Conn Smythe Trophy winner as most valuable playoff performer, was held scoreless.‘‘Mark knows he can play better,” Muckier added “I think it’s just a matter of time.‘‘Mark is one of the greatest competitors around Mark is a winner.He’ll find a way to win.And he'll find a way to come back and play his best.” The situation the Oilers find themselves in isn't unlike the Campbell Conference final series against the Chicago Blackhawks.Down 2-1 in the series and trailing in Game 4.Messier struck for two goals and two assists to lead an Edmonton comeback.MARKED MAN Edmonton went on to win the next two games and the series on the strength of Messier’s performance But against Boston, and particularly Sunday night, he was not the force fans have come to expect.His giveaway led to Boston’s second goal, and some observers believe the Oiler veteran is hiding an injury.Messier refuses to discuss the matter.“I think we got down by two and tried to make sure we still played well defensively,” Messier said of Sunday’s loss.“We couldn’t afford to give them the third goal, but at the same time we had to create some offence.” He was held to only two shots on goal.Boston defenceman Ray Bourque credited the work of Bobby Carpenter, who was assigned the task of checking Messier after I >a ve Poulin was scratched with an injury."Carpenter has done an excellent job on him,” Bourque said.We’ve been trying to stay close to him and basically try to put one guy real close to him.“A talent like Mark Messier — the force he is — you’ve got to pay a little more attention to a guy like that, and we re trying to do that.” Several Oilers suggested they might have been too anxious heading into Game 3 at home.After beating the Blackhawks in Chicago to advance to the final, they headed straight to Boston.PLAYOFF ATMOSPHERE After unexpectedly winning a pair in the Garden, the Oilers returned home to about 500 fans at the airport and the Edmonton newspapers were talking about another four-game sweep.The Oilers won four in a row from the Bruins in 1988.their last Stanley Cup."We had a lot of good chances,” said defenceman Charlie Huddy."We were gone for quite a while and we do have a bit of trouble starting back from a road trip, but this is the Stanley Cup finals and we can’t do that.“They did alt their little things they had to do.We were a little excited.the crowd got us going, and maybe we were a little too fired up." Huddv said the Oilers had a real fight on their hands in the Smythe Division semifinal against the Winnipeg Jets, when they fell behind 3-1 in the series before reeling three victories.When they were down, the Oilers relaxed and played better.Now that they’re up against the Bruins, they can’t be too tight, he said “I think we’re still in a great position,” he said.“If we put pressure on ourselves, then maybe we re in trouble.We’ve gone through some hard playoff games in the Winnipeg series.“Hopefully we learned that we can’t be too fired up.” Ranford and Moog: Head-to-head EDMONTON (CP) - For years, Andy Moog was a reluctant backup goaltender to Grant Fuhr in Edmonton as the Oilers coasted to three Stanley Cups in four National Hockey League seasons.In 1988.before the Oilers won their fourth championship of the 1980s, Moog got his wish: He was traded to the Boston Bruins for goaltender Bill Ranford and Geoff Courtnall.Now Moog and Ranford are going head-to-head in the 1990 Stanley Cup final as Fuhr watches, unable to play because of a shoul der injury.Moog stopped all but one of the 14 shots he faced in the third period of Sunday night's third game of the final as the Bruins beat the Oilers 2-1 to narrow Edmonton’s lead in the best-of-seven series to 2-1.For Moog, now the No.1 man in Boston, it was quite a turnaround.In Game 2 in Boston, he let in three goals on four shots before being pulled for Reggie Lemelin.Esa Tikkanen’s goal early in the third period snapped Moog’s shutout string against the Oilers in Edmonton of 142 minutes 47 seconds.The two teams tied 3-3 here Oct.13 and Moog shut Edmonton down 3-0 a week later.“I don’t think it’s the building in particular," Moog said.“But people don’t realize the Boston Bruins are a good skating team.” There appears to be little love lost between Moog and his former teammates.Once or twice, he went after Edmonton’s Craig Simpson for crashing the crease.* •v Pipers' John Mnddiss pitched a three-hitter yoing into the fifth inning ¦ '1 before the Spartans rallied for a 5-1 win in (lame 2 of a doubleheader Saturday afternoon in Lancaster S’.II.Locals fall short at provincial championships HUNTINGVILLE CO-ED LEAGUE Teams G|> Gw Gl Pts.F.Pts.Ag Pts Hustlers 2 2 « 23 8 4 Le Champêtre 2 2 0 31 17 4 C-Team 3 2 1 32 13 4 C-Weeds Video .3 2 1 27 16 4 Snatchers 3 2 1 19 13 4 Black and Blue .2 1 1 26 16 2 Weedon 3 1 2 20 34 2 Lon Pub 3 0 3 9 34 t) Elect.Express .3 0 3 Kl 46 0 MEN’S Teams Gp Gw G 1 Pts.F.Pts.Ag.Pts.Cage aux Sports .3 3 0 41 19 6 Nile Hawks 3 3 Ü 45 30 6 Chateau d’Aladin 3 2 1 36 24 4 Len Pub 3 2 1 36 24 4 Dream Team 3 1 2 24 30 2 Real Tree 2 0 2 13 28 0 Bar Wildwood 2 0 2 15 • 34 0 Pro-Par Express .3 0 3 16 37 0 JUNIOR SOFTBALL Teams Gp tiw (il Pts.F.Pts.Ag.Pts.Pirates .2 2 0 27 13 4 Red Sox .2 1 1 17 16 2 Blue Jays 2 1 1 8 18 2 Athletics .2 0 2 21 26 0 X R E SUL T S I o t o - ci u é b e c Draw 90 05 21 You can play up to 9:00 P M on draw days 1 7 11 13 14 Next draw: 16 18 28 29 30 90 05 23 34 38 40 42 44 46 53 59 67 68 ponmpocTinn POOL Pool Opening’s easy with the unbeatable pool care partners — wanuur o«v CHtoniNï cMo** %9c en granules NET WT 40 0kg htfr '«> SMK IT 40.0 kg drum 139 |M Start witti SOCK IT® Shock Treatment — brings chlorine levels up fast to control algae, kill bacteria, and destroy organic contaminants.Continue regular chlorination with Faster Dissolving HTH Dry Chlorine — a simple means to sparkling clean pool water Available in tablets or Faster Dissolving granular.TVA, the network of Loto-Québecs draws Claims: See back of tickets.In the event of discrepancy between this list and the official winning list, the latter shall prevail SOCK IT and HTH Dry Chlorine are in stock now at niSCINES 380 Route 220, St.Elle d'Orford, QC JOB 2S0 (819) 564-8383 OUR SPECIALTY GUNITE SWIMMING POOLS ‘ ) S Make your move.

What seems so easy when one is carefully looking at all four hands can be very difficult when the hands held by partner and declarer are concealed.That does not excuse the mistake made by West in today's deal, but please view it with a little compassion.With a double stopper in hearts, South first bid one no-trump after East's overcall.When East persisted with two hearts.South then bid two spades, obviously showing a four-card suit and maximum values for the previous one no-trump bid.North raised to three and South bid four, certain from North’s raise that North held a singleton heart That set the stage for West's defensive disaster When the heart jack was led.East won the king and returned a low diamond He hoped that West would hold the diamond king, and maybe the jack as well.No such luck South won the jack of diamonds and played a low spade.West followed low; the jack was played from dummy a.id East took the ace.That did it for the defense.When a subsequent spade was played toward the y-9-2.West could win the king, but no more tricks were there for East-West.The contract fails if West grabs the spade king when the suit is first led, A second heart is played, ruffed in dummy Later, when East wins the spade ace, he plays the ace of hearts Dummy must ruff again, and West eventually takes the setting trick with the 10 of spades.James Jacoby's books Jacoby on Bridge" and Jacoby on Card Games" (written with his father, the late Oswald Jacoby) are now available at bookstores Both are published by Pharos Books.•MO NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN Yamaska District No.9 officers On a beautiful sunny Sunday altci noon.April 2‘J saw the election and installation ot the otticers ot Yamaska District No.!» ol the Royal Canadian Legion.Sutton Branch 15k was the host for fins meeting.The new slate of officers: Ben Rainville, Shefford Branch 77 (Waterloo) District Commander.Bill Stott.Vice commander, and Betty Ann Tryhorn.Secretary-Treasurer.Cde.Don Wells.Vice-President ol Quebec Provincial Command had the honour of being Election and Installation Officer, assisted by George Diamond Dis- trict Commander ol Maple Leal District and Ruth Hayworth.Pres ident ot Muscoiiehc Branch # 120us scrutineers, with George Diamond acting as Sgt at Arms For the District Ladies Auxiliary.Wes Gage acted as Election and Installation Otfieer.resulting in President.Gloria Stott.Cowansville No.lift.1st Vice-President.Lucette Mailloux.Granby No.aii and 2nd Vice-President.Connie Doucette.Cowansville No.1)9.Bill Black acted as Sgt.at Arms for the L A.Installation.I.t'fl I» ritfltl.lit tty Ann Tryhorn, Don Wells, lien Rainville and Hill Stott.Connie Doucette, (Horia Stott and l.aeette Mailloux.A FOUR LETTER WORD WE SHOULD ALL USE MORE OFTEN.[ GIVE.The giving begins with you.Ayer's Cliff branch QFA has special speaker and busy agenda at their meeting AYERS CLIFF i HI I — A general meeting of the Ayer’s Cliff Branch.QFA.the last until September, took place the evening of May 3 in the Legion Hall here.Douglas MacKinnon, president, welcomed the good number present.He introduced Neil R.Pelsue.Professor of Economics from the University of Vermont.Burlington.and Chet Parsons, with the UVM Extension service in Newport.Vt.Prof.Pelsue spoke about dairy industry and products in the Vermont State and the New England Federal Milk Markets.With audio video and commentary he presented statistics giving the dairy farmers present the comparisons in prices, grades, etc.The agenda was a busy one.Lorraine Harrison reported on the April 8 sugaring off at the Gerard Carbonneau bush.Despite the inclement weather that day there was a good attendance.The bill for the syrup was presented and voted to be paid along with appreciation to the Carbonneau family for having this event.There was discussion about a donation of money to the Stanstead County Fair Board towards costs of the electrical wiring of their new stage.A sum was approved with a stipulation request from this Branch.Under the convenership of Rita Brus, and volunteers to work, this Branch will operate the snack booth under the grandstand for the Building Committee of the Fair Board Mini Festival on June 8 -
