you choose to live beside other than the United States at America Crit icism oi this great nation is entirely unjustified by people in Canada So said Wharton Russell an orillia lawyer in his ad dress to the Kiwanis Cluboi Barrie on Monday at CommunA ity House Mr Wharton has extensive business connections in the United States He was introduced by Roy Topping and thanked on behalt oi the club by Dr George Leggett Two questions he was asked continually by Americans were Why does Canada discriminate against US magazines Why is Canada sending strategic materials to Castros Cuba There has been widespread publicity in the US over these two questions Mr Russell stated Fitteen years ago it wouldnt have caused ripple in the press But never since their days at independence have the Americans beat the bushes so hard in search at iriends believe it all start ed in 1957 when the Russians sent man into space and beat the US to the punch COMMON BACKGROUND Historically we sharcwitll the United

how do you talk to an American cit izen who misinterpret Canad ian policies suggest that you reiiect on the inherent goodwill oi the US people This good will is very slowly buiit up but can be dispelled very quickly it is not the policy of the US government only of some individuals One factor is that our American friends tend to be much inilucnced by the success of certain large corpor
