Challenge For Centennial Exciting But Demanding As exciting and challenging predica tion as Canadians are likely to hear tlus Centennial Year has come from London While the words were aptly directed to the money markets of the world the meaning was highly significant to Canad inns contemplating their countrys entry into its second century Speaking in Dondon Dr John Deutsch chairman of Canadas Economic Council forecast that by 1982 the Canad ian economy will equal that of Britain today He also prophesied that in 15 years one of every five Canadian young stcrs will be in university or college and that the working force will be 50 per cent higher Dr Deutsch maintained two things were needed sane world and con Linued unity for our country to achieve this progress But obviously there must also be other conditions Some of them have been compiled by The Vancouver Sun for Canadian con sideration There is to begin the need for immense injections of investment capital it has been estimated $50000 is required to create new job To meet the 1982 predication three and three quarter million must be added to the work force capital requirements for this come to roughly $200 billion By nec essity much of this will have to be attracted from foreign sourcm But of even prior importance will be the necessity of increasing education and skills in the work force Without them investment is handicapped if not indif ferent to Canadian growth Theres need to increase produetivit as key to growth as well as competitive strength In world markets Greater emphasis on research is yet another requirement The Sun points out that only 58 per cent of Canadian youth attend university as compared to 11I per cent in the US explaining the advantage the has in industrial knowhow contributes to the higher income and living standards The vision for 1982 and the years for ward is bright but it can only be realized through discipline on the part of govern ments business and workers It de pends on the understanding by Canad ians of the closelyknit relationships of incomes education and living standards DOWN MEMORY LANE 35 YEARS AGO IN TOWN Barrie Examiner April 21 1982 Town council decided to

IN READING FRENCH Owen Sound SunTimes High school French teachers students of French even those whose interest centres around the English language might well take lesson from small event which occurred during funeral ser vices for the late GovernorGeneral Georges Vanier Millions of television viewers saw and heard Jean Vanier ason of the listing uished Canadian read small part of the service The action itself was short and simple But the reading in French can only be described as classic To one with no knowledge of French the spoken language is usually mere medley of strange sounds without rhy thm cadence or clarity It has strong nasal overtones But French as spoken by Jean Van QUEEIIS PARK Members Disappointed By Vote Uncertainty ier was delight to hear even though barely one word in twenty was under stood by this English speaking listener Every word yes every syllable was clear and distinct so clear that one could al most spell it even though one did not understandit The words were like crystals sharply etched in purity It is diction such as this which makes any language living and vibrant for those who hear it Such purity of speech can only engender respect for the man and for his language It is quality we English speaking Canadians might well strive for Paragraphically Speaking An equal division of wealth wouldnt please the average person because he wants more than the other fellow has DDNALD oneenw TORONTO The uncertainty over an Ontario election has members here not only disap pointed and confused but also trying to struggle with some incidental personal problems Nobody except Premier Ro barts and probably one or two of his closest contidantes knows just what his real intentions are This applies from cabinet ministers down Even Progressive Conerva tive party officials the men who will actually be running the governments campaign are in the dark preparations and are ready to go But theyagain except at the very topdont know when the go will be given PERSONAL PROBLEMS One of the problems this pre souls for members and other They have been making their candidates is what to do about their machinery Many of them for instance already have their campaign headquarters and other office space rented What should they do about this Should they keep it and perhaps ve to pay rent through the summer Or should they drop It and lake the chance of picking up other space when the vote is actually called Then there Is me To member who has 5000 display cards all printed and stored in his base ment And somebody is going to want to he paid he exelaima He wont get his campaign money from the party until the election is actually under way AIII In the meantime if the rlnter Is to be paid it will gt veto be out of themembers pocket Then there is anotlteLmem her who has planned to take his wife to Europe this winter He has already changed res ervations twice and now he doesnt know what to do whether to go ahead with his present reservation for raid June and face the prospect of having to cancel at the last minute OPPOSITION T00 The uncertainty and delay also put the opposition at some disadvantage of course The ND is reported to have printed hundreds of thousands of price calculators little device to appeal to housewives Many of these have already been distributed If the election is off until fall they will lose much of their punch Other members already have campaign cards through their ridings They will either have to take these down and store them or have them wear out Which illustrates few of the reasons why all members here would like to get the vote over with By BOB BOWMAN it was no April Fools Joke on April 1385 when Indians rushed into Battlefold and 500 citizens had to seek shelter in the North West Mounted Police compound They had to live there for nearly month al though the area was only too yards square The Indian attack was part of the Riel Rebellion on the Prairies Troops were rushed from the east on the far irom completed Canadian Pa elfic Railway In order to get around Lake Superior sections of track were laid on the Ice Troops oitcneravclIed in open freight cars in bitterly
