[" à @ showers @ lb Provinces agree with plan for more parks By Dennis Bueckert AYLMER, Que.(CP) \u2014 Canadian environment, parks and wildlife ministers have agreed to an ambitious plan to expand the network of national parks and other protected wilderness areas by the year 2000.The proposed system, outlined Wednesday in a joint statement by federal, provincial and territorial ministers, would include an example of each type of landscape in Canada.Thirty-nine distinctive landscapes have been identified, and there would be a national park for each.Environmentalists heralded the statement as a major step forward \u2014 even though it is not legally binding and the ministers didn\u2019t explain where the money for the plan will come from.\u201cThis is the first time we\u2019ve had a national commitment to the goal of representing all the natural regions of Canada with protected areas,\u201d said Monte Hummel, president of World Wildlife Fund Canada.\u201cWe will be working very hard to measure progress and assist wherever we can.It's extremely important to have this, to kind of pin them down and hold them to something.\u201d There are currently 21 national parks.Five more are ¢x- pected to be created by 1996, and agreements are to be signed by 2000 for 13 more.Ottawa had already promised an expanded park system that would represent all of Canada\u2019s natural regions.But the provinces had not previously endorsed a national goal for wilderness protection.The ministers noted, in their statement, that the World Commission on Environment and Development has recommended that at least 12 per cent of the planet be set aside in protected areas.Hummel said he sees this as provincial endorsement of that target.The federal government had accepted the 12 per cent target in its previously published ret lath LP pil; Quebec\u2019s rental board has launched a series of new documents in nine immigrant help newcomers understand leases and housing regulations.Régie du logement spokeswoman Denise Trudel-Lussier says they will also help prevent housing discrimination and equal access.For the full story, turn the page.J = / = = i gad languages to RECORD RITA LEGALS Green Plan, but Ottawa couldn\u2019t achieve the goal without the co-operation of the provinces and territories.\u201cFor some time I've felt the feds have stuck their neck out considerably by committing the country to that kind of objective in the Green Plan, knowing full well that it wasn\u2019t in their capability to deliver on it,\u201d said Hummel.\u2018So some diplomacy and persuasion had to be exercised with their provincial colleagues, and I think Mrs.Browes has done a fantastic job of hosting this meeting and pulling the provinces in.\u201d Pauline Browes, the junior environment minister, is representing the federal gover- Ministry to \u2018explo nment at the ministerial meeting in Aylmer, just across the river from Ottawa.Jean Cha- rest, the senior minister, is attending another conference in Copenhagen.Kevin MacNamee of the Canadian Nature Federation also welcomed the parks statement.\u2018\u201cYou\u2019ve got approximately 20 ministers coming together and endorsing this statement of commitment.That\u2019s a strong signal that environment is continuing to be a strong issue in recessionary times.It\u2019s good.\u201d But MacNamee regretted the lack of financial commitments.40 cents SSD) November 26, 1992 Births, deaths .10 Classified .8 Comics .vou 9 Editorial .4 Farm & Business .5 Living .verse 6 Sports

QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 Quebec\u2019s Cultural Affairs Ministry and its programs for funding artists will be overhauled under two bills tabled in the National Assembly Wednesday.The department will become an administrative body with its funding programs being handed over to a new, more autonomous organization, Le Conseil des arts et lettres du Québec.\u201cWe are taking the department and we're sort of exploding it,\u201d said Culture Minister Liza Frulla-Hébert.\u2018It will not exist any more when these laws are passed.\u201cThe Conseil des arts will be doing more than we are doing now and take care of the development of all creative arts and the development of culture.\u201d The Conseil will be roughly comparable to the Canada Council with a board of directors culled from the artistic community and the private and academic sectors.It will also include other interested individuals.The new body will have more autonomy from government intervention, but Frulla-Hébert said it will not be totally independent.The need for changes became apparent in 1990 when there were extensive hearings on a new provincial culture policy, Frulla-Hébert said.\u201cThe ministry was founded in 1961 and nothing was done to it afterward.It couldn\u2019t function any more for arts.So now we are going to be much more flexible.\u201d Frulla-Hébert said the changes are not a power grab even if the province is demanding more control over culture, which is now a shared jurisdiction with Ottawa.\u201cDon\u2019t mix up that with the negotiations we are having with Ottawa.That is totally different.\u201cWhat we are doing is answering problems we had here in Quebec.\u201d She added Quebec has always placed a lot of importance on cultural affairs.\u201cBritish Columbia has 4.2 million (people) approximately and they have a budget of $30 million for arts; we are 6.7 million and our budget is almost $450 million.\u201cSo we are doing things and a lot of things.\u201d The new Conseil will start off with a $43-million budget and will be based in Quebec City, even though Montreal Mayor Jean Doré pushed hard for it to be located in his city.There will be no specific amounts of funding reserved for anglophone or minority artists but Frulla-Hébert said there will be seats on the Conseil for representatives of those communities.QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 The Que- ec legislature was adjour- ed for one hour Wednesday fter a stormy exchange in hich a prominent Parti Qué- écois member accused Premier Robert Bourassa of run- ing his own \u2018\u2018political po- ice.\u201d Guy Chevrette\u2019s outburst ccurred after the premier uggested he did not fully co- perate with police investiga- ing the leak of a secretly taed conversation between wo of the premier\u2019s top onstitutional advisers.When the PQ criticized the remier\u2019s trademark evasi- eness in answering ques- ions on another issue, Bou- assa took aim at Chevrette.\u201cThe quality of my answers is probably comparable to hat of the answers given by he opposition house leader Chevrette) when he was Name calling slows National Assembly questioned by police last week,\u201d Bourassa said.That triggered an angry reaction from the feisty Chevrette, who spoke of the \u2018\u2018premier\u2019s political police.\u201d Chevrette insisted he did not know where the cassette came from and said Bourassa questioned his integrity with \u201cinsidious and pernicious remarks which don\u2019t deserve to be uttered in the legislature.\u201d \u201cThe premier gave the im: pression that I had been arrested.That's defamation of character.\u201d vn Chevrette said he couldn\u2019t: understand why police questioned him but not reporters at the Quebec City radio station which received the cassette from an anonymous caller.In the tape Bourassa\u2019s advisers were heard talking about See ASSEMBLY Page 2 Masse: Canada\u2019s UN forces stretched to the limit By John Ward OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 The Defence Department must get more money or it will not be able to maintain current UN peacekeeping commitments past December 1993, Defence Minister Marcel Masse said Wednesday.The minister told a Senate sub-committee the situation is a simple matter of money.\u201cIt\u2019s not a question of will, it\u2019s a question of dollars,\u201d he said.By the end of this year, about 4,300 Canadians will be serving abroad with 15 different UN contingents.That\u2019s about double the number Defence Department planners usually budget for and right at the limit of the department\u2019s ability.\u2018\u201c\u201cWe cannot be more extended than we are,\u201d Masse said.He said Canada makes up only about one-half of one per cent of the world\u2019s population, yet it\u2019s handling about 10 per cent of the peacekeeping tasks.\u201cIt\u2019s a tremendous participation for a small nation.\u201d Canada is committed to station 2,400 troops in the former Yugoslavia.About 700 are en route to Somalia, there are about 500 in Cyprus, 200 in Cambodia and others scattered in small numbers across the world.Masse said Canada can\u2019t be the only country worried about peace.\u201cOther nations will have to take some of the burden.\u201d The peacekeeping bill this year is already $170 million more than was budgeted for, a shortfall that the department will have to absorb in other operations, Masse said.He refused to say whether he is lobbying his cabinet colleagues for more cash.But defence may be a prime target for spending cuts when Finance Minister Don Mazan- kowski delivers his economic statement next week.The Defence Department is already taking more than a third of the cuts the government announced last week in its operating budget.Ottawa wants to trim spending by $470 million before March 31.Gen.John de Chastelain, chief of the defence staff and the country\u2019s ranking soldier, said the UN commitment has taken as many troops as Canada can readily send overseas.He said Canada has about 16,000 soldiers in its ground forces.So about one in four will be serving overseas with the UN by January.\u2019 \u201cWe have a finite number of resources,\u201d he said.The planning allows Canada to sustain a brigade-size group, about 4,000 troops, overseas for a year.\u2018\u201c\u201cThat\u2019s the limit of it, whether you take that brigade group and send it as one glob or whether you take it and split it: up.you still end up with a fi: nite number,\u201d the general said: : Peacekeepers wait for Serbs before entering firefight zone By Stephen Ward The Canadian Press Button up your overcoat, don\u2019t skid on the corners and look out for incoming shells.It\u2019s going to be a challenging winter for Canadian peacekeepers bound for Bosnia in the former Yugoslavia, their commander said Wednesday.Lt.-Col.Thomas Geburt said his 1,200 soldiers, waiting in neighboring Croatia, are ready for gunplay when they escort relief convoys along hilly, snowbound roads in a broad area of northern Bosnia.But first they have to get there.\u2018\u201cWe\u2019re set to move any time,\u201d Geburt said from a Canadian peacekeeping camp in the Croatian town of Daruvar.\u2018\u2018People are getting anxious, but I keep reassuring them, saying I think we\u2019ll be there sooner than later.\u201d The Canadians are waiting v for word from Serb civilian leaders near the Bosnian capital of Sarajevo.For weeks, Serbian militias have not allowed the 1,200 Canadians to entér northern Bosnia via a main bridge.The Canadians will

will go up by 1.7 per cent next year, the transit corporation announced Wednesday as it presented a budget aimed at wooing riders.The price of a regular ticket will rise slightly, from $1.50 to $1.60, after jumping by about 20 per cent in the previous two years.Other increases \u2014 on passes and other fares \u2014 are similarly small.The corporation decided it could not make riders pay again for the \u201cRyan reforms\u201d, which made 1991 the last year the provincial government paid for part of transit companies\u2019 regular operating costs, said Jean Perrault, president of the Corporation Métropolitaine de Transport de Sherbrooke.\u201cIt didn\u2019t seem opportune this time to raise the prices by more than the inflation rate.\u201d which was at 1.7 per cent in October, Perrault said at a special budget meeting of the CMTS board of directors.The new budget laid out other plans to improve performance and attract riders back to Sherbrooke\u2019s public transit.Ridership has fallen 22 per cent in the last six years.SUBSIDIES But Perrault said it is hard to plan since the provincial government cut subsidies to mass transit.The corporation has had to count on riders and on the five municipalities the corporation serves.But Perrault said it also didn't want to ask for too much money from them.\u201cWe're respecting our riders and also the municipalities which help us,\u201d he said.The corporation had to ask for 50 per cent more from the municipalities after the Ryan reform handed them complete responsibility for public transportation.Municipalities will kick in just over $5 million, or 29.5 per cent of the corporation\u2019s total budget of $17,197,000.Their contribution will be up from 29.1 per cent for 1992.The province will contribute $4,085,000, which will be used for capital expenditures and for adapted transport, with almost $2 million coming from a surcharge on drivers\u2019 licenses.Its share of the burden for the total budget falls from 24.5 per cent in 1992 to 23.8 per cent next year.Both figures are well below the average of around 42 per cent the government contributed before the reforms, Per- rault said.; The corporation said it is studying ways of making its routes more efficient, and of improving services.Perrault said 6,800,000 passengers will travel in the corporation\u2019s vehicles in 1992, down slightly from 1991.Lennoxville town councillor David Price said the bus line is \u201cgenerally happy with ridership.\u201d \u201cWe\u2019re holding our own with other municipalities,\u201d said Price, president of the CMTS building and

road in front of relief trucks.Bosnian Serb army officials told UN relief workers they had no authority to let the convoy enter.This contradicted assurances from the chief of Bosnian Serb forces, Gen.Ratko Mladic, last weekend that both convoys would be allowed through.The leader of Bosnia\u2019s Serbs, Radovan Karadzic, said the convoy was stopped because of fighting around Bratunac, on the

corporation\u2019s plan for a reorganization of its retail network that began in September.The plan is supposed to be completed by Christmas.She said the good news for consumers is that, under the new system, retail outlets could sell stamps at less than face value in some cases \u2014 just as retailers of other products often unload their goods at cut rates to attract business.The bad news, said White of the postal union, is that consumers may have to travel a bit to find a post office to buy those stamps.The document clearly shows many retail postal agents won't be around much longer.Canada Post wants to modify its relations with the chain stores, mom-and-pop outlets CITE) and shopping malls around the country that run independent postal counters.Retail postal outlets \u2014 or RPOs in post office jargon \u2014 would no longer operate on a strict commission basis, but on a so-called gross margin basis similar to that used in private franchising.The result would be an improvement in Canada Post's cash flow, says the internal document.Retail operators would be responsible for buying their own inventories and paying freight charges.They would have to offer discount prices, if necessary, to sell off excess stock or stimulate consumer demand.The document says the new system will likely mean \u2018\u2018a drop in remuneration for many operators, from an average of 13 per cent to less than 10 per cent.\u201d But it acknowledges those figures are just a rough approximation Doonesbury Many operators won't find the loss in revenue acceptable.Between 200 and 300 of them will likely refuse to renew their contracts, the document predicts.That may not be a bad thing, as far as Canada Post is concerned.\u2018\u2018An additional though indirect benefit of this proposal resides in the likely unsatisfactory nature of the new terms in the eyes of many RPO operators,\u201d\u2019 says the discussion paper.\u2018\u2018Canada Post would then be a step closer to achieving its objective of rationalizing the number of RPOs in the retail network.\u201d Irwin said there is flexibility in the plan, and the public won\u2019t be inconvenienced.She added that the 200 to 300 operators that don\u2019t survive the reorganization will likely be replaced with new operators.\u201cOne of our main issues here is that it does not affect customers,\u201d she said.\u201cWe're after

grandmother last summer.Curphey was declared fit to stand trial Wednesday following tests by psychiatrists at the Pinel Institute for the criminally insane.He's been there since his grandmother Beatrice Speller-Goyette, 81, was pushed off her balcony and his father John Curphey, 67, was severely beaten.The woman died a week later.Curphey appeared in court Wednesday and was charged with two counts of assault causing bodily harm for the attacks against the grandmother and father, as well as a charge of sexual assault following an incident in which he allegedly exposed himself to a cashier at a North Hatley store.The allaged attacks occured this summer in Cedardale near North Hatley while Curphey was on leave from Pinel to visit his family.He had been captive there since Killing his mother with a pair of scissors in 1985.Curphey was arrested the day of the attacks but until now has been too violent to appear in Quebec Court to face charges.At each previous court appearance he behaved in an uncontrollable manner and was sent back to Pinel until he settled down.His lawyer Peter Downey said Curphey elected trial by judge and jury, and will next appear in court for a bail

bed Monday night \u201cnot in great shape but not very ill,\u201d Proulx said, adding she thought some sleep would help.She then appeared excited during the night.\u201cHer father tried to wake her,\u201d he said, \u201cbut he couldn't because she was already comatose.\u201d \u201cUnfortunately this was a very severe case and it put this woman in very bad shape in a matter of a few hours.It\u2019s very rare that a case happens like this,\u201d he said, explaining that only one in a thousand people who carry the bacteria will develop such a severe strain.The ability to fight the disease depends on the strength of a person\u2019s immune system or on general health, he said.Proulx didn\u2019t know how the 18 year old had contracted the disease, which usually incubates in the body for three or four days.The 42-year-old Rock Forest woman remained in hospital, where she has been since Friday night, with a severe but stable case, Proulx said.\u201cI can\u2019t say she\u2019s very well,\u201d Proulx said.CURED The Lake Megantic woman arrived with a serious form of the disease two weeks ago, but was released Wednesday after being cured, he said.The community health department already gave antibiotics to about 15 people who had come in close contact with the Lake Megantic woman, Proulx said.The department is now! « giving two days of antibiotiés to the people who had come in close contact with the two Rock Forest women in the last ten days \u2014 around 23 people connected with the 42 yeât'old and 30 with the deceased 18 year old.There is no reason to think there is a meningitis epidemic, or to consider wide-scale vaccination, Proulx said, because the cases don\u2019t appear to be linked in any way.\u201cTo be called an epidemic, it would have to meet strict criteria,\u201d he said, including the number of cases, whether they were closely related, and the area and period they covered.\u201cAll those factors must be studied before giving vaccinations to the population.\u201d | :: There were seven cases of the disease inthe regionin 1991, and six so far in 1992.The average for the region is between five and eight cases each year he

should be given \u2018\u2018special status\u2019 to beef up their employment in the province\u2019s civil service, says a special committee report released Wednesday.And the problem is worse in outlying regions than in cities such as Montreal and Quebec, says the Association of En- glish-speaking Townshippers.\u2018It\u2019s not an affirmative- action program,\u201d said David Blair, a Quebec City lawyer who chairs the government- appointed committee.\u2018\u2018However the results of it would be the same.\u201d The report says the number of anglophones hired to work in Quebec's civil service has doubled in the past three years.In 1990, only 12 anglophones were added to the Quebec civil service, but this year 29 more were put on the provincial payroll, the report says.Members of the English- speaking community make up 12 per cent of the Quebec population.However, the 465 anglophones working for the government represent fewer than one per cent of Quebec civil servants.Blair said getting more anglophones into the civil service should be a government priority.\u201cIt\u2019s a difficult process.But the Quebec government is the single largest employer in the province and there should be an awful lot more (anglophones) working for it.\u2019 Blair said the committee recommends a \u2018\u2018special status\u201d for anglophones in order to increase their representation in the civil service.But the problem is not exclusively the government's doing, he added, because there is no tradition in the anglophone community of working for the government.That should change, he said.Deputy ministers should also be rated annually on their performance in recruiting and hiring anglophones, he said.The report says that last year, 483 anglophones were among the 71,000 people who competed for permanent government jobs.In the end, 36 met all the qualifications.But former Townshippers\u2019s Association president Marjorie Goodfellow strongly disagreed with Blair\u2019s conclusion there is no tradition in the anglophone community of working for the government.\u201cThat\u2019s nonsense,\u201d said Goodfellow in a telephone interview Wednesday.\u201cThese things don\u2019t happen overnight, but if you look back 30 or 40 years ago, the English were working for the government.It\u2019s quite obvious the English population is not adequately represented.\u201d Goodfellow said the government has indicated it wants to see a public service that accurately reflects the demographic reality.But current admission practices into the public service have to be changed if that is to occur, she added.There are 5000 Quebec government jobs in the Eastern Townships, she said, but fewer than half of one per cent of anglophones occupy those jobs.\u201cThe fact of the matter is in the \u2018Eastern Townships there are very few vacancies in the Quebec public service,\u201d she added.\u201cThat is not to say that there are no jobs.but if they don\u2019t change the way they fill those jobs, they are shut out.\u201d And if the public service remains closed to the public, anglophones have even less of a chance of getting in, Goodfel- low said.Civil servants within the system are more likely to get a\u2019 job in Sherbrooke, than someone outside the system living ih the Townships who has applied for the job, she said.\u201cThe question is, is the eur- rent atmosphere welcome to the English-speaking population?\u201d she added.This problem isn\u2019t the case in Montreal or Quebec City, where the range of avajlable jobs is much wider, and most of the anglophones live, Goodfel- low said.She added the challenge, for the government to fill jobs with anglophones is a different.regional priority.\u201cIf they wish to have more English in the public service, they have to seek them from other places than Quebec, City,\u201d she said.» Rental board moves closer to new Quebecers salcnassG MING: wing: (gn unde (fac qsuteimuand) yu wrrdga 1m

understand leases and housing regulations.La Régiedulogementhas published books in nine different languages which offer translations and explanations of Quebec\u2019s standard tenant lease and help immigrants understand their rights and obligations under the law.The manuals also include a chapter by Hydro Quebec about electric hook-ups, heating and bills, and will soon have a chapter by Bell Canada explaining telephone installations and charges.According to local Régie director Denise Trudel-Lussier, the manuals will also be a powerful tool to prevent housing discrimination and ensure immigrants have equal access to housing.AVOID HASSLES \u201cBut to avoid hassles it\u2019s important that immigrants consult the documents before they sign a lease,\u201d she said.The manuals have been distributed to immigrant groups and are on hand at Régie offices.They are available in Arabic, Khmer (Cambodia), Mandarin (China), Farsi (Iran), Lao (Laos), Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and Vietnamese.The information has long been available in French and English.The new languages were chosen based on the numbers and origins of recent immigrants, as well as which cultural communities faced the greatest language barriers.Trudel-Lussier said the publications are mostly directed at new arrivals who don\u2019t understand Quebec society and traditions.The ring-bound manuals, designed to facilitate updates and additions, were conceived mostly for employees at the rental board and groups which work with immigrants.They are not intended for wide distribution.On Wednesday, the manual was distributed to local immigrant groups including the Service d\u2019aide aux néo-Canadiens.Along with the manuals came a brief course on Quebec rental law and on how to use the manuals.Jorge Merazo, a spokesman \u2018to avoid Denise Trudel-Lussier.hassles.\u2019 for the Association Centrale Americaine de l\u2019Estrie praised the manual as an important tool for newly-arrived members of his community.\u201cPeople arrive here on Friday and by Wednesday they have signed a lease,\u201d he said, so it\u2019s important to be able to quickly inform new arrivals about their rights.The books were partly funded by an Immigration and Cultural Affairs Ministry program encouraging help for new arrivals to integrate better, said Claude Larose of Quebec\u2019s regional immigration office.Larose said that since Quebec\u2019s new immigration policy was adopted in 1990, it has encouraged all measures which ensure the full participation of immigrants in society.INCREASE ACCESS \u201cThis can only help,\u201d Larose said.Suzanne Valéry, spokeswoman for the Quebec Human Rights Commission, said the documents will be invaluable in helping immigrants avoid disrimination.Valéry said the bulk of the commission\u2019s work is related to housing and job discrimination.The commission also publishes a series of documents and a video on housing diseri- mination in five languages including French, English, Spanish and Vietnamese.Valéry said the immigrant population in the Eastern Townships is growing and the document will help meet their needs.Antes de entend arrendamiento El propietario debe

.\u201c was inevitable A sacred cow is about to be sold.You'll be able to buy it this Sunday.Quebec\u2019s Liberal government is expected to table legislation today which will legalize Sunday shopping outside the Christmas period for the first time.The opposition Parti Québecois is fulfilling the traditional childish role of an opposition party by coming out with knee-jerk sistance to the plan.But even it can\u2019t seem to muster up a lot of energy.i Prove to us it will help the economy, PQ NAs are moaning, before we approve of his wholesale change in the way Quebe- ærs treat their traditional day of rest.Sunday shopping Commentary Volunteer work fulfils urge to help needy By Brother Gérard Poirier As president of the Volunteers of Foyer Saint-Joseph on Queen Blvd.(both women and men), I would like to express some favorite thoughts of mine concerning this form of help or assistance on behalf of the many residents of the Foyer.You know, there is a tendency to associate \u2018volunteer assistance\u2019, if I may call it such, only to hospitals, care centres, homes for the aged or other such institutions.Just take a brief look and see all e volunteer help in such areas as hockey coaches, Halloween celebrations for the young and not so young, telephone lines listening to people in distress who want to speak to someone, even in politics (would you believe it?).Some few years ago, here in Sherbrooke, at Palais des Sports, there was a convention on the topic of Volunteer Assistance.On that occasion it was said that if the federal government had to pay for the volunteer work done throughout the nation, it would cost billions of dollars.I like to believe that when one identifies herself or himself as a volunteer, ipso facto, there is no fee, no salary, norenumeration, beit only the satisfaction of performing a so wonderful deed.It is evident that one comes to look upon her or his daily or weekly schedule and sees that there is some free time, time to GIVE to others in need, be the form ever so varied.Don\u2019t you think that any and many of us have felt the need, if not the urge, to help out the less fortunate portion of mankind, troubled youths, the elderly, the handicapped, that so wonderful man Jean Vanier, calls then them the \u201cwounded of the society\u201d?I would dare to ask, let us scratch from our vocabulary the word retarded, I think it\u2019s an archaic nomenclature, and let me say that I detest.Yet, it is wise to choose a form of volunteer involvement which 1 like, which fulfills me.If down deep I feel that it\u2019s not worth the effort, it won\u2019t bring me any satisfaction, whereas, in all fairness it should being something enriching and enjoyable in my life and I ! The PQ is right, this will be a big change.Senmbeaking où the mentally FRS Le bn fut the fact is, though the Liberals might ot have hard and fast proof the move will Kelp pull the province out of the quicksand df recession, it is practicaly forced to make the move.i First of all, it has to appear to be doing something concrete to help the economy, and something that might help soon.i The Liberals say the new law is bound to Help by increasing the hours when people dan shop, and also by increasing impulse shopping, which it feels will abound on Sundays.Obvioulsy, the move is also ai- hed at keeping shoppers in Quebec and way from the United States and Ontario ~ two nearby areas which already permit unday shopping.{ Ironically, cross-border shopping will probably tail off as the Canadian dollar plummets against the U.S.greenback.But What probably won\u2019t decrease is the desire af Quebecers to shop whenever they want, without someone citing ancient reasons why it is illegal.:\"Admittedly, some of those old reasons \u2014 like old wines \u2014 seem to get better with age.As employers do more and more to try to turn a profit in tough times, workers deed some assurances they won\u2019t be forced to work more and more hours against their ill.¢ The government will apparently include nits legislation protection for people who efuse to work Sundays.That is good.here is a long tradition of the day being eant for relaxation \u2014 and in Quebec, which was traditionally so heavily influen- ¢ed by the Catholic Church, a long tradition of the Sabbath being meant for religious abstinence from the hectic pace of the rest of the week.: But times change.We now have microwave ovens, call-waiting, fax machines, and other conveniences which allow us to do more or less what we want, when we ant.; Sunday shopping was inevitable, as ine- yitable as progress.SHAWN APEL Today in History I tea 2e } By The Canadian Press ful poy Prince, 64, one of Canada\u2019s

addressed the issue when asked.\u201cIt\u2019s absurdly false,\u201d said Chrétien, blaming the rumor on Conservatives who he suggested are determined to undermine his credibility as a potential prime minister.\u201cThe Tories should look at the health of the economy rather than my health,\u201d he said.\u201cIt would be more useful for Canadians.\u201d Chrétien, who will be 59 on Jan.11, had major surgery 21 months ago to remove some noncancerous growths on one of his lungs.It required breaking some ribs to perform the operation and his six-week recovery was as painful as it was long.The issue of his health was mishandled by his advisers at that .time.They suggested he would be back on the job in two weeks.When it took longer, people started gossiping.SECRET ILLNESS?That gossip fuelled speculation Ee Fa H=2 oo me me \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 7 @ 7 HH = Sl lies \u2014 $ don\u2019t think that is asking too much.We all need to feel wanted and appreciated.In my long life as a Religious Educator (teaching Brother) for 34 years, I now realize, as I look back on those most wonderful years, that I so willingly carried on because I loved my life\u2019s work.Carrying on in a function or assignment one doesn\u2019t truly enjoy may be a chore or a bore.We need to see positive results come about.No matter what the form of volunteer involvement one chooses, there has to be at the very root of it all a deep love motivation.Do we realize how much love is just about the motive of so much of whatever we undertake?Without love would we have a Mother Theresa, such a valiant Christian as former Governor General Georges Vanier, or yet such great men and women as the very founders of this, our country \u2014 Canada?So many thanks for sharing my very simple yet fervent thoughts.cretillness.\"¢ 2% 4 RE?He\u2019s not.But almost two years later, his staff is still busy fighting rumors.No one can offer one shred of evidence \u2014 credible or otherwise \u2014 to provide foundation for the Chrétien rumor.And short of taking the Parliamentary Press Gallery to the doctor with him, there\u2019s little he can do to fight back.\u2018\u2018He\u2019s frustrated about it because what can he do other than go to the corner of Bank and Wellington (in downtown Ottawa) and start lifting weights?\u2019 said Peter Donolo, a senior Liberal spokesman.But this is the second time since Chrétien\u2019s 1991 operation that stories have circulated in a big way about his health.Donolo repeated the allegations of a Tory whisper campaign.\u2018The rumors have picked up steam in recent weeks and it\u2019s just the most scurrilous, sleazy kind of whisper campaign you can imagine,\u2019 said Donolo, who characterized the rumor as a preview of a dirty-tactics election next year.\u2018IL firmly believe it is the Tories whafare dgjipgit, They're totally spooked because they\u2019re in the basement of the polls and they're flailing about desperately for something to try and hurt us with.\u201d Not surprisingly, the Tories deny they are the root of the stories \u2014 although Chrétien himself says it was Quebec Tories who spread the rumor to his son-in-law.Newfoundland Tory MP Ross Reid said he\u2019s been asked about Chrétien\u2019s health, but he hasn't spread the rumor and has heard little about it until recently.\u201cI don\u2019t think any member of Parliament would wish ill on another,\u201d said Reid, adding he hasn\u2019t heard any MP from any party discuss it.There are also some Liberals \u2014 who are not Chrétien insiders \u2014 who don\u2019t believe the rumors are the fault of the Tories.Instead, they say that Chrétien, while not sick, simply doesn\u2019t have the spark he did 10 years ago and that fuels talk about his health.STILL DYNAMIC \u2018\u2018Anyone who has known Chrétien for any period of time knows that the guy is not as dynamic as of denying health rumors that maybe he\u2019s battlin some se; » he used to be,\u201d said one party insi- def\u2019, asking nat to be named.\u201cSo I don\u2019t believe the spin that the Tories are responsible.The Tories want Chrétien to stick around.They think they can beat him.\u201d Reid agreed.\u201cFrankly, from a political point of view, it\u2019s not in our interest to see Jean Chrétien go anywhere.\u201d Chrétien\u2019s office denies he's lost any zip.They say he\u2019s visited 150 federal ridings in the last six months and he campaigned vigorously during the October referendum campaign.But the rumors are troubling enough to have merited a discussion at a meeting of senior Liberals last week.First, Chrétien joked that maybe he should take up bungee jumping.It was generally agreed that this was a bad idea.Then, he joked that he could take some reporters to Florida golfing to prove his vitality.After much laughing, Montreal MP Paul Martin said that was a bad idea, too.\u201cIf they get a look at your golf swing, they\u2019ll think you're really sick,\u201d another MP quoted Martin as saying.(\u2018Also on this day in: 171942 \u2014 Sir Charles G.D.Roberts, noted Canadian poet and writer of animal stories, died.: 1980 \u2014

skin with sandpaper until red.Leave the tender flesh to marinate in chemicals of your choice.Then kill it.European campaigners against animal testing in the beauty business offered this dismal recipe.Billboard, television and press pictures of the rabbit called Vanity going through the agony of chemical trials for cosmetics have taught a lesson that is being heeded by a new generation of entrepreneurs.While many cosmetics firms keep quiet about their links with animal testing, others have used the \u2018\u2018green\u2019\u2019 image to build empires.The British chain Body Shop has helped sell itself and its products by publicly avoiding animal testing and promoting its image as a pioneer of environmental protection.ALTERNATIVES Others in Europe are turning io alternative testing methods.Governments from the 12 European Community countries recently pledged to ban animal testing for any cosmetic ingredient where alternative safety checks exist.Campaigners had paraded their giant dummy rabbit with the agony-torn face through news conferences across Europe, collected two million signatures calling for an end on animal testing and persuaded the European Parliament to call for the ban.\u201cPeople believe it may be okay to use animals to produce a lifesaving drug but not for a deodorant,\u201d said Chris Fisher of the European coalition against animal testing for cosmetics.\u201cYou don\u2019t have to drop droplets into rabbit\u2019s eyes,\u201d says Jil- ly Filsner, a consumer goods analyst who tracks trends in the beauty business.Filsner points to firms such as Clarins in France, the country that makes over half of all EC cosmetics.Clarins is creating a big market for itself with animal- friendly products and using new technologies such as synthetic skin rather than traditional tests on rabbits, rats or guinea pigs.\u201cThere are some companies that are perfectly successful without testing on animals,\u201d Fil- sner said in an interview.PUBLIC PRESSURE But some of the big cosmetics houses are not hopping along the eco-friendly trail.The switch depends partly on the level of public pressure.The British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection said the number of animals used in cosmetics testing in Britain last year was 3,000 compared with 18,000 three years ago.But French firms used 27,000 animals last year, according to French experts.The EC ban is unlikely to convert those firms who are not interested in cashing in on growing demand for \u2018\u2018cruelty-free\u2019\u2019 products.The ban is riddled with loopholes after what the EC consumer and environment commissioner Karel Van Miert called \u2018\u2018very heavy lobbying by the industry.\u201d The EC law will allow for the ban deadline to be put off for any ingredient for which alternative testing methods have not been found in time.This lets industry totally off the hook, says the animal welfare lobby.Cosmetics makers won\u2019t have to race to find other ways of checking whether their products could cause cancer or serious illness if swallowed by children.TOUGH RULES However, sales of cosmetic in the United States and Japan will have to meet tough animal- testing requirements.While alternative tests for irritation of the eyes or skin are quite widespread in Europe, checks other than on animals for cancer risk or toxicity are poorly developed or accepted.Many cosmetics need the whole range of tests before going on sale and the EC ban will not lead to products being totally \u2018\u2018animal- friendly.\u201d \u2018There will be cruelty-free products on the market but there will also be animal-tested products for ages,\u201d says Mike Barber from the British anti-vivisection group.| The RECORD\u2014Thursday, November 26, 1992\u20145 .\u2026.Farm and Business t + Farmers mount pressure against accord French government threatens to sink trade deal PARIS (Reuter) \u2014 The French government, under pressure from protesting farmers and the opposition, threatened Wednesday to sink a world trade agreement if France\u2019s agricultural interests are not guaranteed.Prime Minister Pierre Bere- govoy told the legislature he would request an early meeting of European Community foreign and agriculture ministers to record formally France\u2019s opposition to a U.SEC deal on oilseeds and farm export subsidies.\u201cFrance will say on that occasion that it will veto any draft agreement that goes againstits basic interests,\u201d he said.The French government won backing in the legislature Wednesday for its opposition to the farm-trade deal.A confidence motion based on a text threatening a French veto of the accord was passed 301-251.Beregovoy\u2019s statement came as French farmers geared up their protests against the agreement in clashes with police that left at least 40 people injured.The deal was cut last week, ending a longstanding dispute over EC subsidies.But France, a major farm producer and subsidizer, opposed the pact.Italy\u2019s agriculture minister, Gianni Fontana, also expressed serious concern about the deal Wednesday and called for his government to protect the interests of Italian farmers.The EC, whose 17 commissioners include two French nationals, formally approved the farm deal Wednesday, saying it did not go beyond a reform of the Community\u2019s agricultural policy that was agreed last May.However, Beregovoy spent much of his speech pleading the opposite.\u2018\u201cIt (the deal) would have unacceptable consequences for French agriculture,\u201d he said.Hundreds of farmers, meanwhile, clashed with police just a few hundred metres from the legislature, leaving at least 40 people injured, police and witnesses said.The farmers pelted the police with eggs and vegetables, dumped cereal substitutes in the Seine, uprooted flag poles and hurled firecrackers.The police responded with tear gas and baton charges.It was one of several protests around the country.Farmers also clashed violently with police in Bordeaux and Beauvais and picketed several outlets of the U.S.hamburger chain McDonald's.In the channel ports Calais and Boulogne they burned British flags in a gesture of defiance against the holder of the EC presidency.\u2018\u201c\u201cWe have been lied to for six months,\u201d said one grain grower at the Paris protest.\u201cNext time, I'll come with my tractor.I\u2019ve got nothing to lose.\u201d Beregovoy, pressed for a full explanation of the conditions for a French veto, said it would have to wait until a formal document is submitted.EC analysts said there will be no formal document until the end of overall world trade Ottawa: U.S.airline won\u2019t control ours By Alex Binkley OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 The federal government won't permit a deal that would give American Airlines effective control of Canadian Airlines International, Transport Minister Jean Cor- beil said Wednesday.\u2018\u2018\u201cDefinitely not,\u201d Corbeil said in the Commons when asked whether the government would accept a deal that gave American control of Canadian even though it only owned 25 per cent of the airline\u2019s stock.In his announcement Tuesday that the federal government would give Canadian up to $50 million so it could keep flying while it sorts out its fu- Military.\u2018By Paul Mooney MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 The Canadian defence industry can no longer serve as a tool of regional economic development, Defence Minister Marcel Masse said Wednesday.The traditional Canadian way of dividing defence contracts among as many regions and federal ridings as possible is costly while failing to develop the high-tech skills and export ability Canada needs, Masse said.In order to meet the challenges of an interdependent global economy, Canadian defence contractors will have to concentrate expertise in a few areas and at a few sites, the minister told a news conference.It will also have to form strategic alliances with companies abroad, he said.ture, Corbeil warned that a proposed investment deal with American could violate Canadian ownership laws.They limit foreign ownership to 25 per cent and say effective control of a transportation company must remain in Canada.Similar rules exist in the United States.; Corbeil said Wednesday that it would be up to the National Transportation Agency to say whether Canadian ownership rules were violated in any deal.American has offered to invest $246 million in Canadian in return for two seats on the board of directors.Those two directors would have the final

world.Masse cited auditor general Denis Desautels, who said in his report Tuesday that defence can no longer serve as the main regional economic development tool in Canada.\u201cIf we want to survive, we have to change our approach,\u201d Masse said.\u2018\u201cWe don\u2019t serve Canadian interests and we don\u2019t serve national defence interests when we think that the best contract is one with a piece of it in each riding in Canada.\u201cWhen we try to develop all the (military) contracts in Canada for a nationalistic approach or for a regional development approach \u2014 and we lose hundreds of millions of dollars on the contract \u2014 I don\u2019t oped tive officer, major business decisions and future mergers or acquisitions.The American deal would also require $290 million in federal and provincial support and up to $150 million in employee concessions.An investment in Canadian by American Airlines would require the approval of the transport agency.Corbeil also said Wednesday that officials in his department are looking at ways to curb the heated competition between the two airlines.But he says he wants the airlines to take the lead.\u201cIn any business, manage- not regional cash cow ogre wae adage \u201cthink our economic interests are served.\u201d The same thing applies to the Canadian Forces\u2019 far-flung infrastructure of military bases, Masse said.\u201cWe have too much infrastructure, I've been saying that for a year-and-a-half and I'm ready to take the heat (over base-closings),\u201d\u201d Masse said.\u201cWe spend hundreds of millions of dollars to keep open infrastructure we don\u2019t need and we don\u2019t have those millions of dollars to modernize the bases we do need.\u201d Masse said the Forces support his approach, but it\u2019s one that that hasn\u2019t been heard often in Ottawa.The minister said he has tried to pass the message throughout the federal government.: The minister also urged Quebec defence contractors to become more assertive in their Apprenticeship programs finally mean jobs in Quebec starting to By John Davidson MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 Denis Benoit found a job.Not a major accomplishment to some, but to Benoit, it\u2019s a big deal since he lives in an area where over 20 per cent of the population is on unemployment insurance \u2014 double the national average.\u201cI still can\u2019t believe I got a job this easily,\u201d says the 24- year-old machinist who lives in the St-Henri district of Montreal.\u2018The pay\u2019s $9 an hour to start, with increases as I gain experience.\u201cThe company offered me a position as soon as I finished my co-op program at St-Henri vocational school.\u201d Benoit just graduated from an apprenticeship program being used as a model for Quebec\u2019s future manpower needs in which students study in an academic setting for six months of the year, then go into the workplace for the other six.This arrangement between employers and educators has been used for years in engineering and technical courses at some universities and community colleges across Canada.In Quebec, the Eastern Townships Technical Institute was the first to use the idea.But for the first time in the province, such programs are being implemented at a secon- dary-school level for students destined to work in machine shops or factories.\u201cThe real school is on the job,\u201d\u201d Benoit says.\u201cYou learn things in a classroom.But you learn real skills in a real shop, working for a real company.\u201d Quebec and Ottawa are still battling over who will run manpower programs in the province.But in the meantime, a group of local business, union and academic leaders \u2014 called the Forum for Employment \u2014 has created its own manpower plan for Quebec.\u201cIf Quebec wants to get its economy moving again and become competitive in the global marketplace, it has to have a highly trained workforce,\u201d says Claude Corbo, rector of the University of Quebec in Montreal and president of the forum\u2019s committee on manpower training.Corbo doesn\u2019t pull any punches in his analysis of the weak manpower-training programs in Quebec and the rest of Canada.His committee called for a radical overhaul of the education system which has existed since the 1960s.\u2018Quebec (and Canada\u2019s) education system worked very well in the last 30 years to produce doctors, lawyers, managers and teachers,\u2019 says economist Michel Payette.*\u201cThe problem now is that we need industrial workers who can compete with the quality workmanship one finds in Germany, Sweden or Japan.And we won\u2019t get them with the academic system we have.\u201d AN ENDURING TRIBUTE Consider a donation to the Memorial Fund in memory of a loved

To Corbeil, that means a return to profitability.The two airlines are now losing about $2 million a day flying half-empty planes and selling too many discount tickets.\u201cOur ultimate preoccupation is to maintain a viable Canadian airline industry.We cannot live forever in a situation that would put the industry in jeopardy.\u201d Inthe Commons, lain Angus, New Democrat transport spokesman, said the government should introduce some pricing and routing controls to force the airlines into acting responsibly.\u2014 Masse dealings with Ottawa and to maintain close contacts with departments responsible for defence programs.Masse again refuted charges that Quebec gets the lion\u2019s share of defence contracts, saying it receives an average of 22.5 per cent compared with 54.4 for Ontario.Quebec receives 17.4 per cent of total defence spending, compared with 33.4 for Ontario, he said.He urged contractors to focus their efforts in areas of established Quebec expertise, particularily aeronautics, avionics, computers and defence electronics.Masse\u2019s remarks were welcomed by Gilles Ouimet, executive vice-president of Pratt and Whitney Canada.The sector is dominated

By Frank Cameron Chartered Financial Planner A surprising number of full- time students fail to claim moving expenses to attend post- secondary courses at a college or university.It\u2019s up to the student to make the elaim; Revenue Canada is not in a position to tell if such a claim may be made when the student files his or her income tax return for 1992.There are some limits, however.For example, your new residence has to be at least 40 kilometres closer to your educational institution than your previous home was.Also, the move has to be from one place in Canada to another place in Canada.But there\u2019s an exception to the latter rule.You may be able to claim moving expenses if you leave or come to Canada to begin attending a post- secondary educational institution on a full-time basis.There is a ceiling on the amount of moving expenses you may claim.The rule is you can only dedutt expenses'up to the amount that you have included on your tax return as \u201caward\u201d income, such as fellowships, bursaries, scholarships and research grants.(As pointed out in last week\u2019s column, the first $500 of any award income does not have to be declared; it\u2019s tax-free.) If you are enrolled in a cooperative program where you attend school for an academic session and then work for a similar period of time, you may be able to deduct eligible moving expenses from income you earned at your new work location.However, when you return to school, you can only claim moving expenses against your award income as explained above.You also may claim expenses if you are a student who moved to start a job, including a summer job, or to start a business \u2014 provided you meet all the detailed requirements set out by Revenue Canada.If you are unsure, ask Revenue Canada for its Interpretation Bulletin IT-178 Moving Expenses.Let students make most of tax returns/ The way you claim moving |, expenses is to complete Revenue Canada\u2019s Form T1-M entitled \u201cClaim for Moving Expenses\u201d.You can obtain the form from your closest District Taxation Office.You must enclose the form with your 1992 income tax return.Revenue Canada says it doesn\u2019t want you to enclose your receipts to back up your claim.But you must keep them at home in case Revenue Canada challenges your claim and wants to see the evidence you have to support it.That brings up the topic of safekeeping of your financial records.A lot of students treat these records very casually, if they keep them at all.It is up to parents to show their youngsters how to set up a simple system of record-keeping, and check that the system is being maintained.Incidentally, if a student takes a part-time job to help make ends meet in the city \u2018where he or she is a student, moving expenses can be set off against those job earnings.Another thing to keep in mind is that if you moved in 1991 but you were unable to claim all your moving expenses in that year, you can claim the remaining expenses against income you earned in 1992 at the new location.You must attach a note to your 1992 tax return explaining the situation.The same carry-forward concession applies to 1992 moving expenses, which you may be able to claim when you make out your 1993 tax return.Some students take the atti-| tude that their earnings are so small that they don\u2019t see any point in filing a tax return.That\u2019s a short-sighted position to take.If you are a full-time student 19 years old and older, you are eligible to receive the Goods and Services Tax Credit, if your income is under a certain amount.Also, you may qualify for some provincial tax credits.Mr.Frank Cameron is a Chartered Financial Planner with Investors Group.Brian Costello Best seiiing author, Radio and TV personality Place: Bishop\u2019s University Time: 7:30 p.m.Confirm your attendance 014-697-3338 \u201cCentennial Theatre\u201d Lennoxville, Quebec Date: Tuesday, December 1st, 1992 1-800-465-2898 or Admission Free Scating Limited DPM brings you Brian Costello \u201cLETS TALK RETIREMENT\u201d SEMINAR ® RRIF\u2019s vs annuities ® RRSP alternatives ® How to avoid tax through a \u201csystematic withdrawal program\u201d ® How to create and preserve wealth ® How to avoid the biggest mistakes people make with their money!

dropped to four per cent from 11 per cent.The researchers, who interviewed 217 people aged 24 and younger, reported a decline in overall drug use.Cannabis use was down by 10 percentage points, cocaine use dropped by 50 per cent and heroin use fell by 66 per cent.However, 95 per cent had consumed alcohol in the past year and 89 per cent had taken one or more drugs.\u201cWe were generally surprised by the drop in levels of drug se,\u201d Dr.Reg Smart, head of social epidemiology at the foundation, said inia:news release.\u201cBut in a practical sense the decline may not be that significant.Street youth are still experiencing very high rates of alcohol and drug problems.\u201d Only 28 per cent said they had experienced no drug-related problems.Forty-three per cent said they had attempted suicide.Also, 67 per cent had experienced physical abuse and 21 per cent \u2014 including 46 per cent of females \u2014 had been sexually abused.WINNIPEG (CP) \u2014 A social worker

they were brought up and the times they lived through, Bra- ga notes.That means many still cook traditionally, baking from scratch and doing home-made soups and casseroles rather than relying on processed food such as tinned soups, prepared sauces or cake and muffin mixes.\u201cThey are also careful shoppers and very price- conscious,\u201d says Braga, \u201cand they don\u2019t necessarily

says.PROVIDE SEATS And though it wasn\u2019t mentioned in the research, he suggests stores provide seats where seniors can rest during shopping.As well, he suggests parcel carry-out to cars, easy-

Thanksgiving Day.I have been reading your column all my adult life.You've helped me to be a better wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother and friend.You have also taught me how to deal with a variety of everyday problems.I've been married to the same great guy for almost 41 years.We raised four children any parent would be proud of and we now have three grandchildren.The first thing I learned from you was that it is normal for married people to disagree, that they must learn to compromise and that they should never go to bed angry.Your column also taught me that children need and want discipline, and I should accept their friends, vocations and choice of a mate.But most importantly, it taught me to M.Y.O.B.when dealing with adult children.My daughter-in-law of almost nine

travel until the automobile and maintained roads made the going easier.Last summer, August 17, 1992, the members of Friendship Lodge No.66, now of Sa- wyerville, were invited to Cole- brook to

usual for our Christmas gathering, it was decided to meet at the Marquis at 11:30 for a buffet: after which we will go to Edna Mallette\u2019s for the meeting, the drawing, and exchange of gifts.Members wishing to attend the buffet are being asked to contact Stella Parkes by the end of November, so she can reserve space.Pennies for Friendship and lunch money was collected and a tasty

unusual play By Phillip Alder It is the middle of the deal.The dummy, North, holds Q-3-2 of spades.West has the K-J-9-5.If West decides it is right to switch to spades, which card should he lead?The correct play is the jack.If South has the spade ace, probably it is better not to lead the suit.But if South holds 10-x-x of spades, only the lead of the jack guarantees picking up the whole suit without giving declarer a trick.This is called a surrounding play because West's J-9 surround declarer\u2019s 10.However, there is a situation when it appears you have a surrounding play but you don\u2019t.West leads the heart six: two, three, jack.Declarer plays a diamond: two, eight, ace.What should East do now?If he woodenly continues with another heart, declarer wins nine tricks: one spade, three hearts and five diamonds.However, East should see there is a grave risk that declarer is ready to claim.Probably East's next thought is to switch to a club.But which club?If East leads the four.declarer just plays low and loses only three club tricks.Similarly, if East tries the surrounding play by leading the club jack, declarer covers and restricts his club losers to three.The only chance to get four club tricks is for East to assume South holds queen doubleton.The correct defense is to cash the club king before continuing with the four.When West leads his third and last club, East is sitting with the J-9 over dummy\u2019s 10-8 and the contract is defeated.Readers are invited to send card-play questions to Phillip Alder, in care of this newspaper.They can be answered

Jersey Devils 3-1 Wednesday night.Jamie Baker also scored for Ottawa, while netminder Peter Sidorkiewicz, playing in his 200th career game, was outstanding in stopping 26 shots.A capacity crowd of 10,500, sensing victory, roared throughout the clucth-and- grab third period that made a mockery of the new NHL rules.It was Ottawa\u2019s first point since a 2-2 tie against Buffalo on Oct.31 and first win since a season-opening 5-3 decision over Montreal on Oct.8.The NHL winless record is 30 games, set by Winnipeg in 1980- 81.Nordiques 1 Sabres 1 BUFFALO, N.Y.(AP) \u2014 Quebec\u2019s Mike

box for roughing.Quebec goaltender Ron Hextall couldn\u2019t control the rebound of Dale Hawer- chuk\u2019s clearing shot from the point and the rebound squirted out to Andreychuk who shovelled it in from the edge of the crease.Canucks 4 North Stars 2 nucks to a 4-2 NHL victory Wednesday night over the North Stars.The victory was Vancouver's third in a row.Minnesota had won its previous three games.Gaetan Duchesne\u2019s goal 5:02 into the second completed the North Stars\u2019 rally from an early two-goal hole, but Mo- messo put the Canucks back in front with his fourth goal of the season.Momesso\u2019s wrist shot from between the circles deflected off the stick of Minnesota\u2019s Craig Ludwig and slid un- -der goalie Jon Casey.Geoff Courtnall added an insurance goal on a breakaway 2:28 into the third period.The line of Anatoli Semenov, Greg Adams and Pavel Bure continued its torrid scoring pace by conbining to score the first goal of the game at 5:43 of the first period.Adams finished the play for his 10th goal.The line has combined for 50 points in the 11 games since Se- menov joined the Canucks in a trade with Tampa Bay on Nov.3.Capitals 6 Bruins 2 LANDOVER,

\u2014 Bishop\u2019s College School\u2019s senior hockey team may be battered and bruised, but they didn\u2019t let that bother them Wednesday afternoon.Despite losing five players to injuries in their past two games, BCS still managed to struggle back from a one-goal deficit to tie Stanstead College in the third period before scoring on a shorthanded goal with justover a minute remaining to win 2-1.After a scoreless first period Billy MacDonald put Stanstead ahead 1-0 at 7:25 of the second with a shot from the left face- off circle.The two teams were sent off the ice with 51 seconds remaining in the second period after Sebastien MacMillan was knocked into the boards and lay on the ice for several minutes with a suspected broken collarbone.TIED GAME BCS tied the game on Scott MecGillivray\u2019s goal from a scramble in front of the net at 7:35 of the third period.Marty Lafleur missed an opportunity to win it for Stans- tead when he was stopped cold on a breakaway by Sebastien Lafaille with three minutes left.Felix Roberge scored the winner with 1:11 remaining as 1992 may be last as we know it The championship game each November is traditionally a wide-open, high-scoring affair that entertains a national audience.Following the 80th Grey Cup contest Sunday at the SkyDome between Winnipeg and Calgary, the CFL will face another acid test \u2014 expansion.And with expansion comes considerable national debate over the contentious import player regulation.Quotas likely will be changed \u2014 or eliminated \u2014 and this year\u2019s edition TampaBay 1013 2

league expand.League commissioner Larry Smith reiterated Wednesday that his staff has prepared three schedules for 1993, providing for eight-, 10- and 12-team leagues.Representatives from Sacramento, Calif., San Antonio, Tex., and Montreal will be in Toronto for Grey Cup fesiti- vites as Smith attempts to put the closing touches on an expanded league for next season.The most contentious part of expansion is the import player issue.Should teams be restricted to 14 active-roster import players, plus up to three quarterbacks?Or should the quota be lifted entirely?\u201cThere are many different opinions on this issue,\u201d Smith said.\u201cI'd venture to say this will be solved by trying something (different).\u201d Pressure to win on \u2018Magic Man\u2019 Flutie By Sylvia Strojek TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Doug Flu- tie finally has a chance to beat the rap.The scampering quarterback and throwing fiend can prove to the doubters he can win a professional championship if he leads the Calgary Stampeders to victory against Winnipeg in the Grey Cup on Sunday.He has started in three pro leagues, thrown for more than 22,000 yards and won so many awards most of them are gathering dust in his parents\u2019 garage back home in Natick, Mass.But it hasn\u2019t been enough for those who keep reminding him he hasn\u2019t won a championship in 8' years.Not since he threw the Hail Mary pass that sealed an upset win for Boston College in 1984.Now, after diving across for the winning touchdown \u2014 minus a shoe \u2014 in the last 19 seconds of the western final against Edmonton, Flutie has been dubbed a magic man by his teammates and fans.Coach Wally Buono called him \u2018\u2018possibly the most exciting quarterback in football today\u201d and almost every one of his teammates has said they never worry when trailing in a close game \u2014 as long as Flutie gets the ball.He admitted Wednesday, as his team practised for the first time at the Sky Dome, the pressure is on.\u201cIt has been since Day One.Since the pre-season when we played the game in Portland,\u201d he said.\u201cEvery day there\u2019s a lot of nressure because you have to live up to what they did last year.It\u2019s even more important to me personally.\u201d The Stamps have been focused on winning the Grey Cup since they came up short last year against the Toronto Argonauts.New owner Larry Ryckman lured Flutie away from the B.C.Lions in the off- season with the hope he would prove the final stepping stone on the long, winding road to a win.\u2018Now, anything short of winning is a failure,\u201d Flutie said.\u2018\u201c\u201cThey\u2019re paying you all this money to come in and if you don\u2019t get to the same point you got last year, there\u2019ll be a percentage of people saying \u2018Yeah, so, (former pivot) Danny Barrett got them this far.\u201d \u201d Kirsten Layzell of Stanste Descarreaux of Bishop\u2019s College School in ETIAC hockey yesterday in Stanstead.he took the puck from his own blue line and streamed up the right side to flip the puck over goaltender Sam Skoryna.In addition to MacMillan, BCS lost four players in a rough game Tuesday against Alexander Galt.Lyne Tessier sustained a broken nose, John Doherty a broken index finger, Chris Wil- SR ad College Habs whale on Hartford, Senators wake from slumber The Wings, who beat Washington 7-5 last Friday and trampled Tampa Bay 10-5 on Monday, also set a team record for goals in three games with 28, breaking a record set in 1945.The 21 goals in two games tied a record for back-to-back games, also set in 1945.At one point, Detroit scored six times in nine shots while picking up its sixth win in seven games.Late games: Sharks at Flames Kings at Oilers Stanstead liams a knee injury and Bobby Veillon a badly bruised cheek.All four missed yesterday afternoon\u2019s game and only Veil- lon will be back for this weekend\u2019s Champlain-Bishop\u2019s tournament.\u201cWe\u2019re
