In the nature of things, few items that Canada worked on with prime initiative were set- tled by the end of the session--| perhaps some never will be-- but progress was made.

Heath Macquarrie, parliamentary as- sistant to Green, followed up this theme at the just-ended ses- sion, asking Moscow to throw light on the "'areas of dark- ness."
