urging troops to beat the Bloc?By Don Macdonald QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 The continuing strength of the Bloc Québécois is causing some sweaty palms not only among the old- line federal parties but also among Premier Robert Bourassa\u2019s provincial Liberals.Quebec Liberals are preparing for their own electoral rendezvous with the Parti Québécois, the provincial allies of the separatist Bloc Québécois.A strong showing by the Bloc and leader Lucien Bouchard in the Oct.25 federal election would give the PQ a much needed boost going into the provincial election expected next year.Last week, key Liberal organizers sent out the word that the No.1 enemy in Quebec is the Bloc and called on their members to work for federal Liberals or Conservatives.\u201cEveryone who is going to work, must work to make the Bloc fail,\u201d said Health Minister Marc-Yvan Côté, an influential provincial Liberal organizer.Côté encouraged his troops to On Campbell\u2019s home turf Chrétien campaign hits full steam with a tight focus on young adults By Warren Caragata VANCOUVER (CP) \u2014 Liberal Leader Jean Chrétien promised Sunday to remake the country\u2019s antiquated apprenticeship program to help young people get work and make industry more competitive.But with a nod to the deficit, he promised on his first western swing of the campaign that he will nearly double federal funding without increasing the flow of red ink.\u201cWe will invest in the young people of Canada and we will prepare this country for the 21st century,\u201d he told a partisan crowd on the Vancouver waterfront, in the heart of Kim Campbell\u2019s Vancouver Centre riding.But the investment won\u2019t start until 1995 and the increase in spending will be spread out over three years.The existing apprenticeship program is tilted toward the construction industry, but it is still possible to get training courses to become a certified blacksmith.Chrétien arrived at the rally by Aquabus from the downtown side of False Creek, a landing tailor-made for the television cameras, which lapped up the pleasure boats, seabirds and distant purple mountains.He was the second opposition leader to campaign in Vancouver Centre on Sunday.NDP Leader Audrey McLaughlin was in town earlier, making an appearance with B.C.Premier Mike Harcourt.By Robert Russo MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 The low-key, listen-to-the-voter campaign waged by Kim Campbell was ditched Sunday for a glitzy bash that resembled a political rock opera complete with dry ice, pounding music \u2014 and real riot police.Montreal\u2019s riot squad had a brief but violent scuffle with protesters outside the University of Quebec hall where Charest slashes Liberals Kim says she\u2019s keen on jobs as well as balanced budgets Campbell held the official launch of the Tories\u2019 Quebec campaign.About 30 officers, clad in helmets and wielding clubs, dispersed abut 250 protesters opposed to Tory social policies who broke windows at the university and smacked placards against two empty Campbell campaign buses.Inside, Campbell and Quebec Tory candidates held the party\u2019sonly large rally so far.It was the kind of gathering favored by Brian Mulroney \u2014 600 flag-waving partisans in the crowd and plenty of tub- thumping, political pugilism on the stage.It was not the kind of campaigning Campbell had done over the first week of the contest.Her pattern has been to hold question and answer sessions with small groups to project See CAMPBELL Page 2 Ferreting season\u2019s last fair, turn to Page 5.Je or Si UN.\u2019 Sandy Normand of Melbourne and her pet ferret Kea had little trouble enjoying themselves at the Richmond County Fair this weekend.For the full story of the KIECORD CLAUDIA VILLI FMAIRE: work for the federalist parties that have the best chance to beat the Bloc in their area.The concern among provincial Liberals is strongest for those 60-or-so seats out of 75 that are overwhelmingly French-speaking.Coté suggested that the Bloc could win 20 to 30 of those seats while Communications Minister Lawrence Cannon put the number at between 30 and 35.Bouchard is predicting his party \u2014 which has led in Quebec polls for months at about 40 Vancouver Centre could be the most contested seat of the 1993 campaign.Campbell won only a narrow victory over the NDP in 1988 with the Liberals running a poor third.But party organizers hope NDP weakness will help candidate Hedy Fry, a local doctor and former president of the B.C.Medical Association, make up the deficit.Chrétien was in fine form Sunday, first at a brunch in Winnipeg\u2019s north end where he announced details of the apprenticeship program, and later in Vancouver.He hit all the right buttons, _.made people laugh at his Brian Mulroney jokes, made them angry when he talked of economic malaise, made them proud when he talked of the country\u2019s potential.He has been getting better every day, it seems, hitting his stride, helped by a good start to the campaign that has boosted his self-confidence.Even some bad poll news in Quebec, where he campaigned Saturday, failed to dull his buoyant mood.In Montreal, Chrétien said voters will ultimately reject the separatist Bloc Québécois \u2014 which early polls say is the most popular party in the province \u2014 and vote Liberal be- See CHRETIEN Page 2 per cent popularity \u2014 is poised to take 50 or more seats.In the past two elections, the Quebec Liberal machine has worked for the Progressive Conservatives of former prime minister Brian Mulroney, who is a personal friend of Bourassa.This year, provincial Liberals say that loyalties of provincial workers are divided between Tory candidates of Prime Minister Kim Campbell and Jean Chrétien's Liberals.But the secrecy surrounding SR % page

contrast to Bourassa\u2019s reluctance to be seen with Chrétien, an Aug.3 meeting with Campbell was followed by a full news conference and the announcement of a job- training agreement.Chrétien has

Yasser Arafat arrived in the U.S.capital Sunday to attend today\u2019s signing of an Israeli-PLO accord, having unbuckled his pistol and proclaiming himself ready to make peace.\u201c\u201cWe are very happy to come in this historical moment so we can make peace,\u201d Arafat said minutes after he arrived at Andrews Air Base outside Washington, aboard a chartered flight from Tunis at about 3:40 p.m.EDT.Although Arafat boarded the plane in Tunis attired in his trademark military fatigues with a holstered pistol at his hip, he changed clothes enroute and was wearing a formal, light- olive military uniform with no sidearm showing when he arrived in Washington.An aide said he had taken the pistol off.Long banned from U.S.shores, Arafat is scheduled to attend a White House ceremony at 11 a.m.EDT today at which one of his lieutenants and Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres are to sign an accord foreseeing Palestinian self-rule in the Gaza Strip and Jericho.External Affairs Minister Perrin Beatty is scheduled to attend the signing which will be hosted by U.S.President Bill J Clinton and witnessed by hundreds of dignitaries.Arafat had not been in the United States since a 1974 visit for a United Nations meeting.U.S.-PLO contacts were broken off in 1990, after a Palestinian group attempted an attack on an Israeli beach.Meanwhile, Palestinian militants launched a series of attacks in the Gaza Strip on Sunday, ambushing an Israeli army jeep and attacking two buses.Three Palestinians and four Israelis, including three soldiers, were killed.Muslim and leftist Palestinians said the attacks underline their determination to continue armed struggle against Israel.Police said a Palestinian armed with a knife and grenades boarded a public bus headed toward the southern Israeli coastal city Ashkelon, just north of Gaza.The driver was stabbed to death and two soldiers on the bus were injured before one soldier shot and killed the assailant.National police spokeswoman Tami Paul-Cohen said the bus flipped over on its side during the attack.Gunfire was aimed at another Israeli bus, near He- bron, on the West Bank of the Jordan River, injuring one Israeli, the army said.In the ambush on the soldiers, two or three gunmen opened fire on troops in a jeep Sunday as the soldiers patrolled a dirt road near Gaza City, the army said.The jeép commander returned fire but his vehicle crashed into the wall of a mosque.Brig.-Gen.Yom Tov Sa- miyeh, commander of Israeli occupation forces in Gaza, said the gunmen took at least two \u201cx weapons from the three soldiers after killing them.He said they left behind a leaflet claiming responsiblity in the name of the Izzedine el- Qassam, Hamas\u2019s military arm.Islamic Jihad also claimed responsibility for the attack

Kevin Semprini was given his assignment to cover a convention Sunday, he didn\u2019t know what he was in for \u2014 an encounter with 500 true believers in aliens, flying saucers and other unidentified flying objects.\u201cIt\u2019s kind of bizarre,\u201d said Semprini, watching a slide show about a giant face on the surface of Mars a speaker said may have been carved by \u2018\u201c\u2018ancient astronauts\u2019 from Earth or their Martian ancestors.\u201cI'd like to believe it- .but,\u201d said the officer.Semprini was one of the few skeptics in the crowd.Many of the convention participants, gathered at a restaurant in Portsmouth for the v Third Annual New Hampshire Mutual Unidentified Flying Object Network conference, embrace the theory mankind has blundered

September 13, 1993 BQ riding high in polls Quebec: Who will win the dissatisfaction vote?By Paul Mooney MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 Political pundits used to rely on several indicators to predict federal voting patterns in Quebec.The level of dissatisfaction with a government was one such signal.Socio-demographic factors such as age, language and education were another.They\u2019ve been forced to toss all of that out this time around.Traditional voting patterns are in shreds.Previously reliable assumptions no longer seem to apply.The level of dissatisfaction with all parties and politicians is very high, says Jean Noi- seux, a sociologist and opinion poll analyst.\u201cThe variable doesn\u2019t apply anymore \u2014 we can't useit as a voting indicator.\u201d The battle for Quebec votes will instead be won by those who offer some measure of hope to a population weary of high unemployment and low growth, Noiseux says.The separatist Bloc Québé- BOURASSA: shake his man-from-the-past image in

off with a cois is still riding high in Quebec polls, with about 47 per cent of support among French- speaking Quebecers.Liberal support tends to be highly concentrated in ridings with a majority of English- speaking and ethnic voters.However, some experts question whether the Bloc can deliver its vote to the polls on Oct.25.Traditionally, many Quebec nationalists sit out a federal election.Political scientist Daniel La- touche, a former aide to the late premier René Lévesque, notes that only about 60 per cent of French-speaking voters cast ballots in federal elections while participation is much higher in provincial elections.\u201cThe Bloc\u2019s major problem is that it has to mobilize people who are very reluctant to vote in federal elections,\u201d Latouche says.\u2018\u2018Bloc Leader Lucien Bouchard\u2019s major problem is not that his party would be useless in Ottawa.It\u2019s that Quebe- cers who favor independence Chrétien regime,\u2019\u2019 Quebec Agriculture Minister Yvon Pi- cotte grumbled last week.Tory MP Charles Deblois, running for re-election in the Quebec City riding of Beau- port-Montmorency-Orleans, said he has the solid support of provincial Liberals in his area.may see it as useless in Ottawa.\u201d If voters stay home, Bloc support could drop to around 33 per cent, leaving it in a tight, three-way fight with the Tories and Liberals in many ridings.A slight shift then \u2014 say, two per cent \u2014 would mean the difference between a landslide victory and a rout, Latouche says.Bouchard is aware of the danger.\u2018\u201c\u201cWe\u2019ve won nothing yet,\u201d he told supporters last week as he urged them to forget the polis.Alain Gagnon, a political scientist at McGill University, thinks the Bloc can deliver its vote via the powerful Parti Québécois provincial machine.\u201cIthink we're going tohave a much higher level of participation than we usually do in federal elections and the Bloc will be successful \u2014 they\u2019ll win 40 seats.\u2019 Some electoral facts about Quebec: \u201cTerrible ignorance\u2019 Lucien can\u2019t stand the comparison By Maurice Girard JONQUIERE (CP) \u2014 Bloc Québécois Leader Lucien Bou- chard said Sunday that Prime Minister Kim Campbell showed a \u2018\u2018terrible ignorance of Quebec history\u2019\u2019 by comparing him to Jean Chrétien.\u201cAs insults go, being likened to (Liberal Leader) Jean Chrétien is a pretty good one because Jean Chrétien is what we don\u2019t want to be politically,\u201d Bouchard told several hundred supporters in the staunchly nationalist Saguenay-Lae St-Jean area.Campbell made the Bou- chard-Chrétien comparison Saturday when she said both men offer far-fetched economic programs and can\u2019t be trusted to protect Quebecers\u2019 interests in Ottawa.\u2018\u201cWhat does this mean?\u2019 Campbell asked supporters in Laval, north of Montreal.\u201cIt means one thing only.A vote for Lucien is a vote for Chrétien.\u201d Bouchard turned the tables on Campbell on Sunday and said she and Chrétien are the real ideological bedmates.\u201cIf Jean Chrétien has one al- NUMBER OF SEATS: 75 STANDING AT ELECTION

Conservative government come to Quebec and try to sell the Charlottetown agreement.\u201d Bouchard also warned the Tories that voters who supported the Conservatives in 1984 and 1988 are now squarely behind the Bloc.\u201cIt\u2019s obvious that we're leading among francophones with about 50 per cent, which means the Bloc will fill up on the nationalist vote to elect a large number of MPs,\u201d

Quebec\u2019s current economic plight and said the federal government has impoverished the province with a slew of policy measures including: ® Depriving Quebec of $1.3 billion in Ottawa\u2019s

Democrats.McLaughlin, who believes the area should be protected by the United Nations, endorsed Harcourt\u2019s decision to protect the environment while maintaining jobs.\u201cI think itis trying to achieve that balance,\u201d she said.Rut Jim Pullen, a retired policeman who watched McLaughlin as she campaigned on a nearby wave-swept beach, has trouble with the NDP\u2019s stand.\u201cI just think that logging fiasco is just terrible\u201d said Pul- len.\u2018\u2018I just feel really bad about the NDP connection with it.\u201d He spoke as McLaughlin denounced what she calls devastating Tory social policies.\u2018Never has a prime minister and a government so deserved defeat in a federal election,\u201d McLaughlin said as she campaigned in Kim Campbell\u2019s riding of Vancouver Centre.McLaughlin stood near a sprawling sand castle festooned with NDP placards and complained that 1.6 million Canadians are living in poverty.\u201cTory policies have been devastating for this country,\u201d said McLaughlin, flanked by candidate Betty Baxter, a former Olympic volleyball star.\u201cWe can have an end to poverty in this country if there is the political will.\u201d The NDP ran a close second here in the 1988 federal election \u2014 Campbell won by only 269 votes \u2014 and Baxter, who proudly campaigns as a lesbianin a riding with many gays and lesbians, is popular.McLaughlin\u2019s meeting with Harcourt was the second of three meetings with the NDP premiers.She had a polite session with Ontario Premier Bob Rae in Toronto on Friday and plans to campaign later with Saskatchewan\u2019s Roy Romanow.On Saturday, McLaughlin opened the door a crack to supporting a Liberal minority government \u2014 but only if it kills free trade with the United States and Mexico.\u201cIt is a bottom line for us because the North American free-trade agreement sells this country, in fact, gives this country away,\u2019\u2019 McLaughlin said while campaigning on Vancouver Island.For McLaughlin, who later denied she is conceding defeat, it was a break from the traditional strategy of talking only about winning.\u201cIn the game to come, Que- becers want their best players on the ice, not on the bench,\u201d she said.She pointed to the cabinet ministers beside her on the polished stage for proof of Quebec\u2019s clout in government.Quebecers are in the highest ranks of cabinet, she said, including Jean Charest in Industry, Gilles Loiselle in finance and Pierre Blais in justice.Her 20-minute speech was loudly cheered, but the delivery was earnest compared to the kind of rhetoric Quebec Tories are used to hearing.Jean Charest\u2019s rousing two- minute introduction of Campbell, by contrast, had the crowd crying for more.Quebec wants a leader with eyes wide open for their interests, Charest said, adding that Chrétien had said he could solve the controversy over the government\u2019s $5.8 billion helicopter purchase with his eyes closed.\u2018Mr Chrétien
