FINE ADDRESS BY KITCHENER SUPERVISOR AT SKETCH CLUB One of the most interesting even­ ings of the Ingersoll Sketch Club’s program for the year was that held i Thursday night when some 40 mem­ bers were in attendance at the Ing­ ersoll Public Library. Miss Beatrice Hatch, supervisor of art in Kitchener, and formerly on the staff of the Ingersoll Public Schools, held the spotlight with a highly educational talk on arts and crafts as practised in Kitchener and district. Miss Hatch explained how the Kitchener Club had been in exist­ ence for some years, sketching on Sunday and holidays; how the club had progressed under hardships and had tried numerous experiments. She told too of the different art teachers they had each winter, men­ tioning Gordon Payne, formerly of Ingersoll, Frank Panabaker, Mr Cleghorn of Montreal and many others. Miss Hatch explained each of-the paintings and painters, detailing some of the oddities of each apd told how some had blurred the cor­ ners of their pictures, resulting in an oval picture having xthe main theme in the centre. Miss Hatch spoke at some length of Edward Cleghorn’s two paintings of very thin oil like a wash, using only three colors in his wholeschdfne, also how ths artist had made cunning use of horizontal and ver- tical lines. Mrs. Ivan Avery’s pictures came in for much discussion. Mrs. Avery wa* Homer Watson’s first wife. She has a style or technique of her own with something startling in each picture yet she follows faithfully her owr ideas. Miss Hatch went on to explain how the Kitchener group hang theii paintings in their public library either for sale or rent with a small monthly payment, thereby encourag­ ing the local artists in their work. The speaker explained the unex- celled craftsmanship of the rugyof Quebec and the Maritimes and said they were due to the talents of home folk and many immigrants from the Old World who brought their de­ signs and coloring and technique* over with them. Rug-making origin- ; ated in England, she said, but it re- ' mained for the people of the North American continent to develop the ‘ art so highly. Montreal and district has devel;oped the silver-smith handicraft said Miss Hatch, while Toronto is the centre of the wrought iron crafts and ceramics or clay moulding j flourishes around the districts of Dun­ das and Hamilton, developing verj . artistic and outstanding designs. The I Canadian Guild of Ceramics is lo- [ rated in Toronto from whose kilns come some of the finest examples of J clay modelling in North America. The speaker touched upon felt work for the kiddies and she had witl ■her some very striking cramp.*, made by the children -of Kitchenei and district. The thanks and appreciation of the s gathering were expressed to Mis* Hatch by Miss Betty Crawford who also expressed the''hope that Mis: Hatch would return to Ingersoll and give another address in the neat i future. The local club, members served ' refreshments to bring the memorable i evening to a close, the tea table being very attractive with a pretty i lace cloth and a centre of Christmas : poinsettia*. Mrs. A. W. Crutchei poured tea. There was a large attendance at the Christmas dance sponsored by the Club ^Viana at the armory or Friday evening, which was prettily decorated in colors of red and green wdth evergreen trees adorning' th* corners. A special feature of the enjoyable evening were spot dances and elimin­ ation dances. The winners in the spot dances were Mr. and Mrs. George Smith, Mr. and Mrs. H. Uren, Mil­ dred Mansfield and David Butler. Elimination dance winners were Sally Fleet and Don Greenwood. A most hilarious floor show was presented by the club during the intermission tvhich was greatly en­ joyed. “Father Time” was portrayed by Ralph Williams and “The New Year", by Ken Heslop, who sang their own version of a well knowr song, which was interrupted in a most comical manner by Jack But­ ler playing the role of a Christmas tree vendor. Wes -Heslop was the efficient master of ceremonies. Members of the Y’s Men’s Club and their wives were in attendance and the president of the club, How­ ard Horton, spoke briefly, congratu­ lating tht Club Wiana executive or its splendid entertainment. The dance concluded at about 12.30 o’clock.

FIRST INTERMEDIATEGAME TAKEN BY INGERSOLL TEAM Ingersoll Hellcats rolled up a 9-3 victory over Woodstock Friday night in the opening game of the In- termediate O.H.A. “B” Series. Ing­ ersoll led all the way. Both teams were lacking in finish and after the first period scientific play was impossible. The ice was not only rough but also soft and little could be accomplished in puck carrying efforts. The veterar Thomey Noe in the Ingersoll nett did a grand job and particularly during ganging plays. Ingersoll led at the end of the first period 1-0. But greater action was witnessed in the second stanza with the locals on top at the bell 7-1. In the final period each team scored two goals. Both teams give promise of much ability on keen ice and a battle royal is predicted when they clash at Woodstock. Woodstock—Goal, Huiher; fence, Smith, Roy; centre, Bryson wings, 0. Bain, A. Joy; subs, Weiler, Nadalin, Doison, 'Ridley. Ingersoll — Goal, Noe; defence Jordan, T. Daniel; centre, Burford wings, Collins, Cole; subs, Evon, D. Daniel, Weir, Lewis, Mohr. Referee—C. Van Horne, London. On New Year’s Day the local* played a return engagement in Woodstock and defeated the home team 8-6. St. Thomas—While sharpening a knife, to carve the Christmas tur­ key, Ralph Tansley sliced off the end of his thumb. He was rushed to the hospital by the police department. The piece of thumb that was cut off was taken with him wrapped in paper. It was sewed back on his thumb, ten stitches being required. It is said by hospital officials that he will have the use of his thumb again. Stratford—A young sleigh ridpr had a narrow escape when he coasted down a hill across the highway. Witnesses reported that the sleigh with the boy on it passed under­ neath a slowly moving transport truck between the front and back wheels. I’he boy was apparently un­ injured as he was not identified. Another instance of the sleigh ride hazard was cited by a doctor who on reaching a hill a group were about to coast down and narrowly missed being hurt. His car went over a sleigh that had been vacated by one of the children. de- RED CROSS ROOMWORKERS ENTERTAINED A pleasant social gathering was held on Friday afternoon, with Mrs. J. M. Malcolm and Mrs. B. Jenvey joint hostesses, at the former’s home, Oxford street, when they en­ tertained some 20 local workers of the Red Cross Society. Those present were the workers at the rooms for the cutting and shipping and those who assist on Friday afternoons. A most enjoyable social time was enjoyed during which delicious re­ freshments were served by the hostesses. Work is to be resumed at the local rooms early in January and tht date will be announced later.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 3rd, 1946 Fall Ahead On Trade The Loan agreement just concluded between United States and United Kingdom financial nego­ tiators is recognized as of the utmost significance for Canada, reports the Washington correspondent of The Financial Post. It should substantially aid Canada, he says, to return to the pre-war system of triangular trade, whereby her sterling balances can be sold in New York for dollars with which to settle her current U.S. account transactions. Ster­ ling would gradually become freely convertible and there will thereby be removed, the primary cause of the acute shortage of U.S. dollars which charac­ terized Canada’s trade relationship yith the United States since the start of the war. Canadian imports from the United States greatly expanded during the war until Canada ran the largest adverse current trade balance with the United States in the history of Canadian-American trade. However, through careful economizing, but­ tressed by the 10(,t tariff (exchange premium) on U.S( goods, Canada was able to negotiate without credits in any form from the United States. It is felt at Washington that the loan agreement will strengthen the exchange value of the Canadian dollar. Any rise would reduce the cost of American goods to Canadian importers, ease the burden of interest and dividend payments to U.S. holders of Canadian securities and improve Canada’s credit in the financial markets. On the other hand, a dis­ count on Canadian funds creates a better U.S. mar­ ket price for Canadian exports and gives many Can-’ adian exporters additional earnings in terms of Canadian currency with which to improve their fin­ ancial position. Need For Farmers To Keep Records Tremendous strides have been made in the last forty years in all phases of agricultural develop­ ment, states the latest issue of the Economic An­ nalist New crop varieties have been discovered, better methods of breeding and feeding live stock have been found, better machinery has been de­ veloped, while marketing facilities for agricultural products have been improved and much has been accomplished in grading farm produce. In spite of all these advances, however, a large percentage of farmers in Canada have not yet rea­ lized that the day of the self-sufficient farmer is past and that to make a success of commercial farming the farmer must be an efficient business manager. Farm management research, says the Annalist, provides a basis for the application of the best technical information to farming, in or­ der that the farmer may obtain the highest return from his labour and investment. Fann management studies carried out by the Economics Division, Dominion Department of Agri­ culture, during the last 15 years have attempted to show farmers the factors responsible for increased returns. To do this, it has been necessary for the research worker to collect and analy.4 information on all phases of farm business and mkke available what may be accomplished through dficient farm management. Conditions change from year to year and vary from region to region and’ by type of farming. It is therefore necessary, if the greatest use is to be made of farm management studies, that more or less continuous records be maintained. Farmers may thus be shown that with proper management farms can be put on a paying basis, and the higher the efficiency in the use of land, labour, live stock, and capital, the higher will be the net returns. Getting Off on The Right Foot An interesting little book for servicemen, which, as its title suggests, is designed to help members of the Armed Forces get off to a good start, as they shed their uniforms and enter civilian life again, has just been published by the Bank of Montreal and is being distributed to service per­ sonnel by the local branch manager. Done in two colours and illustrated with pictures in a light vein which will appeal to servicemen, the booklet will probably reach an audience wider than the service personnel to whom it is addressed because it contains much down to earth informa­ tion which can be just as valuable to civilians as to those being discharged from the forces. In publishing the book the Bank of (Montreal recognizes that the destiny of a million Canadian veterans returning to civil life is of vital import­ ance to the country that the future success and prosperity of the Dominion will be fairly well de­ termined by the success and prosperity of this vast throng of young people. In taking this view, the Bank does not attempt to divorce all sentiment from veterans' problems, but is recognizing a well known fact that sentiment alone will not accom­ plish the tasks of rehabilitation. There must be a practical programme as well. The entire tone of the booklet which inciden­ tally is of a size to fit conveniently into the ser­ vicemen’s pocket, is summed up on the fly leal where it tells the veteran “It is Your Time - - - It is Your Money - - - Be careful with them", bdvicc which most people could take to heart.

Preparations are under way to welcome many of them to the national parks. Those who can do so are being urged to bring along their own camping equipment this year _ in case they find difficulty in securing accommo­ dation in the national parka, espec­ ially at the height of the season Special facilities are being provided for those visitors who are planning to spend their holidays under can­ vas or in automobile trailers. From every portal of entry streams of tourists will “fan out" to their favorite haunts, dispersing as they move northwards into Canada’s great hinterland of lakes and for­ ests and rivers.

Do not fancy inflammable orna­ ments, synthetic materials, paper oi cotton near high-wattage lamp bulbs. Do not overload your electrical outlets. Usually 1200 watts is as much as the ordinary circuit will supply. Do not put pennies in a blown-out fuse. A blown fuse is a warning that the circuit is overloaded. A replacement of a new fuse of the same strength is required.

Difficult isn’t it? Yet there have been those, capable of doing exactly this—at least in a meaure. “But under a presidential gov­ ernment you can do nothing of the kind . . .

DEPARTMENT OFVETERANS’ AFFAIRS With the Troops Arriving on the Mauretania are L.A.C. Dougins M. Carr, L.A.C. W Crombie, Pte. L. Robinson, Sgt Maurice G. Hufches, Pte. J. Brown and Pte. Frank G. Making. This reflection arises .from read­ ing a page or two of “The English Constitution" by Walter Bagehot He was for some years Editor of the London Economist and in 1867 pub­ lished the book to which 1 now re­ fer. He was dealing with the position of the cabinet in our form of gov- ernment and had this to say. “The principle of popular gov- ernment is that the supreme pow­ er, the determining efficacy ir matters political, resides in the people ... It is so in England; it is so in all free countries. Under n cabinet constitution at a sud­den emergency, this people can choose a ruler for the occasionIt is quite possible and even j A- likely that he would not be rulei V before the occasio^i. The great qualities, the imperious will, th< rapid energy, the eager nature fit for a great crisis are not re­ quired—are impediments—in com­ mon times. A Lord Liverpool if better in everday politics than a Chatham—a Louis Phillippe better than a Napoleon.” THE REPUBLICAN FORM Our American friends have had this advantage yet, the United States has been singularly fortun­ ate. Who other than Lincoln could have held that nation together in the great strife through which it passed. Where could there be found a more competent man than Roose­ velt for the great task which fate put in his charge. Men, when great responsibility falls upon them, not infrequently rise to the occasion. The difficulty, however, exists. A In the United Kingdom the situa­ tion is quite different. When the emergency came Churchill took the helm. In the last war Asquith was replaced by Lloyd George. In the Crimean war the Aberdeen ministry valued. in peace, was supplanted in war by men of greater driving power led by Lord Palmerston. In the following paragraph Bagehol tells of the need and points out how. even in his day, the emergency brought forth the man and the Brit­ ish Constitution provided the meant of bringing him to the front. Pte. Don. Sivyer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sivyer, arrived home or Saturday with the Highland Light Infantry. He is the last of the Inger­ soll men who served with that unit. fai not “In England”, wrote Bage- hot, “we have had so few’ catas­ trophes since our constitution attained maturity, that we hardly appreciate this latent excellence We have not needed a Cavour to rule a revolution—a representa­ tive man above all men fit for a great occasion, and by a natural legal mode brought in to rule But even in England, at what was the nearest to a great sudder crisis which we have had of late years—at the Crimean difficulty —we used this inherent power. We abolished the Aberdeen cab­ inet, the ablest we have had, per­ haps, sAnce the Reform Act—a cabinet not only adapted, but em­ inently adapted, for every sort of difficulty save the one it had to meet—which abounded in paci­ fic discretion, ’ and was wanting only in the “daemonic element” we chose a statesman, who had the sort of merit then wanted who, when he feels the steady power of England behind him will advance without reluctance and will strike without restraint As was said at the time, "We turned out the Quaker and put in Toronto—Operation of sdidier re­ habilitation machinery is being seri­ ously retarded throughout Ontario by failure of many veterans to in­ clude in all their correspondence to the Department of Veterans Affairs information by which they can be identified with their individual rec- ord-of-service files.

Here’s a paragraph of it: “Do the people of the world not yet realize that by fighting on until the bitter end I am not only performing my sacred duty to my people, but standing guard m the *^ast citadel of collective security? Are they too blind to see that I have my responsibilities to the whole of humanity to face? I must still hold on until my tardy allies appear. And if they never come, then I say prophetically and without bitterness: The West will perish,” Whatever may be thought in re­ gard-to his prophecy—for the West still lives—what could be more su­ premely grand than for the Emperor of Ethiopia “to stand guard, in the last citadel of collective security.” The other victors are the Japanese people. They suffered from an ex­ treme dose of militarism. They really wanted war, thought they could lick the world, talked of dictating peace in Washington. Now all this was and still is remarkably funny but what has been done for them? The United States now occupies the country.

"Rusty.” was left In chargeof the ranch. Soon black market oper­ators got busy and slaughtered someof her cattle. She caUed Ladue Decker,a neighboring rancher, to come over,but he laughed at the Idea of gangstersand proposed to her. Rusty turned himdown. She has quite an admirationfor Dr. Herb Westmore. a veterinarianliving on a neighboring ranch, but thereare many things about him that she doesnot understand. She ts greatly con­cerned when the feeders refuse to takethe yearlings off her hands, and doesnot know where to pasture them. Shewires her brother, Ralph, asking wherea map of Low Valley can be found, andhe air mails precise instruction^, sug­gesting that she keep her plans secret.The cattlemen hold a meeting at Dr.Westmore's place to chart a courseagainst the raiders. They guard Mur­phy's ranch, believing It would be strucknext, but the rustlers strike a ranch 200miles away. "Oh, no,” protested Rusty. “Why,these ranchers and the associationmen have lived here always.”"And does living here make them immune from thievery?”Doctor Westmore was away thatnight and the next morning, andAdelaide presided at the hospital inhis place.Rusty shopped for the house that morning. At the butcher's, she eyed the meat counter thoughtfully."I'd like that 'tenderloin butt." she told the butcher, “but first I’dlike you to show me the side from which you took it. I want to see the government stamp.”“Look," drawled a tall, blondegirl next to her, “take what youcan get and eat it. This meat ra­tioning is all a lot of hooey. Thebig ranches are holding their cat­ tle so they can make more moneyon them."Rusty shook her head. “When webuy black market meat, we maybe buying stolen goods, and the fel­ low from whom it w»S stolen la theloser.”"A lot you know about it," scoffed the blonde. "These cattle barons can stand it Why say, the moneythey make — Well, what’s sofunny?”Rusty was chuckling. "I happen to be one of the cattle barons,” she explained."Here you are, lady,” said thebutcher in a bored voice, andheaved a side onto bis block. “Or would you like me to prove that butt came off this—""She'd know," . laughed theblonde. "She says she runs one of the big ranches."The butcher scrutinized Rusty,then grinned. "Well, I'll say shedoes! Didn't recognize you. Miss Rowland. Any chance you selling straight? I could sure handle someaf that Double R beef."" 'Get thee behind me,' " beggedRusty. "But no — I'd rather wait antil my stock is in the prime.” "What did I tell you?" demandedthe blonde. "If this doesn't provethe cattlemen are holding out—” ....... „---------------------“It doesn’t," Rusty flashed. "Our bor," she retorted, “with one eyemen overseas are going to need * food next winter. If all the cattle­men sold their stock when it wasone-third its potential size, they’dbe cutting the needed supply of beef just two-thirds." She took her package and leftWestmore returned home thatafternoon looking grim and verytired. Adelaide literally drove him Into the house to rest, saying' that she could do the hospital work."If every a human ntecded a com­plete restl" she said worriedly toRusty. "I wish be could go off ona hunting trip, far away from tele­ phone bells.”"If only be were a surveyor,"mused Rusty. "I could fix up atrip for him.”“But he is!" exclaimed Adelaide, sitting up. "Or be was. That's how□e happened to become a veterin­arian/* ’Rusty blinked, trying to fathom therelation between a surveyor and a veterinarian.Adelaide laughed, then explained."He graduated from college as acivil engineer and immediatelyjoined a crew building a highway across a section of the. RockiesHe was in the advance group, whichhad to ride in on horses. The ter­rain was impossible. Everythingthat could happen happened to their mounts and their pack horses. Itwas a nightmare to any one lovinganimals. All they could do waskill the unfortunate beasts. "Herb realized that, if any of them had had even the rudimentsof veterinary skill, many of the ani­mals could have been saved. Andso, the next year he enrolled in the school I attended. At that time, I believe, he intended to return toengineering, using hia veterinarytraining merely as a supplement.However, for some reason, he later decided to make a profession of it.” Rusty sat silent, considering thepossibility of asking Doctor West-more to act as her surveyor on thetrip into Low Valley. Ralph had written her to be careful whom she chose. But surely, Herb could oetrusted not to tell any one of herproject [7In the end, she told Adelaide about it and about the importanceof keeping it secret* so that the “Didn’t recognise you, Miss Rowland. Any chance yon selling straight?” rustlers would not learn of the newpasturage for her yearlings."If I could Induce Doctor West-more to do the surveying for the trail into the valley,” she said ea­ gerly, "It would be wonderful! Itwould solve my problem, andthough it wouldn’t exactly bea vaca­tion for him, it would get him out­ doors and give him a change. He and Uncle Jed and Hank and Icould make the trip, leaving Pineyto handle the ranch. . . ." Then,the light died from her eyes. "But I suppose we couldn't persuade him to take the time off. We'd be awayfor at least two weeks.”Adelaide was staring into space, a speculative expression on her face."If I were to tell him that hiswork was suffering because he wasnervous,” she murmured, "we might—well, we'll see. Let me talk to him. . . .”The next morning. Doctor West-more conducted his first class inelemental veterinary training for the cattlemen of the surroundingranches. The first week was de­voted to lectures.

"But never mind— forget it. It’s just that I’ve been singled out by the association to run down .ertain things.”He left soon after that and, whenhe was gone, Rusty sat for a longtime considering what he had said. She couldn't believe that there was any truth in his implications, andyet his words left her disturbed.She’d decided finally that perhapsshe'd better go home, after all.She’d leave tomorrow Then, Adelaide came tn to tellhim he was wanted on the phone Inthe house—and the spell was bro-*ken, Immediately, his manner be­ came businesslike again."Adelaide,” he said, as be turnedto answer the telephone, “our as­sistant is leaving us tomorrow.”“Oh, Tm sorryl Must you go, Rusty?”“I’m afraid so,” said the girl."We’ll miss you.

HadIt meant anything?"Rusty,” Adelaide murmured,“you can depend upon the doctor’s making that surveying trip withyou. I’fl arrange it . . ."That night, when Rusty retiredto her room, her heart was singing.She would spend another two weeks with Herb Westmore. Shedidn’t care what Decker said, sheknew Herb was all right—that itwould be perfectly safe to let himin on her secret plans in regard to Low Valley.She was sound asleep when Ade­laide awakened her to bring hersitting upright In bed. “Rusty—I’ve just been talking to your mother on the phone.

She had had only a glimpse ofhis white, unconscious face. Then, be had been whisked away. Now. she sat waiting with Hank,who bad brought him from theranch."Tell me what happened,” shesaid.

Demand for gas this winter has increased alarmingly over that of last winter because of the substitution M gas for hard fuels for home heating. If outages of gas to many consumers are to be averted during the remainder of the winter it is necessary that all gas consumers$Eonserve gas in every possible way during cold wave periods. A little gas saved by eai i of -the man^fconsumers will provide some gas for all. Largest savings in the hi ne can be effected by using less gas for heating.

James Gar­diner, Minister of Agriculture, whowent on a mission to Britain; Hon,Humphrey Mitchell, Minister ofLabor; Hon. Colin Gibson, Ministeifor Air, who went West; Hon. C. D. Howe, Minister of Reconstruction, who travelled south, and others Premier King, Hon. Brooke Claxton, Minister of National Health and Welfare; Hon. Ian Mackenzie King, Minister of Veterans' Affairs; Hon. J. L. Ilsley, Minster of Finance, and other Ministers have remained in the capital and its vicinity over the holi­ day season. Meanwhile, though the Federal Cabinet • held a* six-hour: long meeting after the close of the last session prior to the holidays, yet there are hints that all or al­ most all Ministers will be back at work this month due to the pressure of problems at this time, including, among other things, a long list of extremely important subjects,t espec­ ially since Parliament will meet again without too long a delay and much work awaits the Cabinet before this next gathering. Then again, a number of appointments may be forthcoming shortly, such as those to fill Senate vacancies, judicial posts, and other changes. ALARMISTS REBUKED It is admitted in well-informed quarters on Parliament Hill that threatening unemployment and lab­ our unrest across Canada are two of the most serious obstacles in the path of the present progress being made in this period of readjustment. However, Canada’s Minister of Lab­ our, Hon. Humphrey Mitchell and others in Ottawa seem to be inclined to discount some of the “alarmists’ stories” being circulated in this country. Indeed, it is held in Ottawa that the placement machinery in Canada is far more efficient and able to handle the situation to­ day that anything which has existed in this country at any time in our history, with official views being that the conditions now are somewhat better than “some agents of gloom predicted a few months ago” that they would be, these being the exact words used by a spokesman for the Government who declared that at the time there were predictions that half a million people would be out of employment in Canada by the end of October, 1945. “When we realize that during the last four months we have placed over 750,000 people in the employ­ ment stream” said in part Hon. Hum­ phrey Mitchell, “it gives some idea of the resiliency of free institution: and the ability of our Canadian econ­ omy to absorb people into productive employment.” In other words, wher circumstances of the sudden end of the war against Japan and overnight stoppage of war production arc considered in the light of the magni­ tude of such problems, the condition: now are, it is stated in Ottawa, much better than anticipated, especially since this is a seasonal country and at this time there is always a drop in employment in Canada, this hav­ ing occurred even last year. There I: no effort to minimize employment probl^jns in Ottawa but alarmists are rebuked nt this time.

NO SECRET EXPEDITION 1 Notwithstanding any opinion: which may be entertained to the contrary, yet it is official in Ottawa that the expedition to the Canadian Arctic, known as “Exercise Musk­ ox”, has nothing secret about it and it is not a large expedition.. It is merely the fourth and last such exercises, each named after an arctic animal. The first was known as ■ “Eskimo”, the second “Polar Bear" [and the third “Lemming”, with the I first as well as second taking place in the winter of 1934-1944 and the [third in winter of 1944-1945, each being initiated and held in secrecy by code. However, and this is very much emphasized in Ottawa, there is no such secrecy about this latest “Exercise Musk-ox”. It is being car­ ried out under extreme condition: of winter and through the early spring break-up so that the vehicle: may be properly tested. Likewise, it should be reported from the capital that, it is antiepated, the benefits derived may be almost of greutei value to civilian life than military, though, of course, both are hoped to be benefiitted as technical and meteorological experts endeavour tc learn much from this effort. These facts are mentioned in, order to re­ move any false impressions which may have grown up about this ex­ pedition and these facts have beer stressed in Ottawa.
