I did track down her agent in' ndon, England, however, she has other arrangements. Despite this initial setback, plans are now going ahead smoothly.

Many details remaîn to be, ironed out. We will have a fly-past, and hopetùlly this will include vintage World War Il aircraft. 1 will give more~ details at a later date. At the risk of making this colurnn ail military, 1 met with Royal Canadian Legion, Ontarxo Command officiais recently at Queen's Park in my role as chair of the Ontario government>s veterab;is committee.
