In it you shall not do any work, Neither you or your family. ; For the past two millenium millenium s people who call themselves themselves Christian have tried to obey this mosaic law, in spite of differing ideas about which day of tnd week the Sabbath is. This law has never been flouted ns it is in the last half of this century. A wide open Sunday is practised practised by the majority it seems. What happened to the present Liberal provincial government's law, when they wore at least poing to lot the municipalities vote on it. In spite of religious be- liofs, Sunday ns n day to rest and relax is important to largo numbers of people and I think it is a crime that large stores and supermarkets supermarkets arc all set to open Sundays. Sundays. I don't know how the people who speak for the charter of rights can make such n decision. (Whoso Rights?) llow can the big storos'arguo that little convenience convenience stores are taking away their business? It is ridiculous ridiculous and wicked to take away their one chance to break oven. I feel that anyone who opposes opposes this matter should boycott the big stores and not only on Sunday.
