Waking up from a bad dream

Dear Editor:

1 fully agree with the letter of
Mr. Cranfield in your Sept. 4
issue.

The hard-working Canadians
ate condemned to death between
the rapidly growing masses of
hardly-workers: Ottawa and the
unemployed/welfare block.

The tendency has been
strengthened by the GSI, adding
cross-border shopping and
business emigration. The North
American Free Trade Agreement
is only the last drop, coup de
grace.

Apparently the government does
not. know about Mel! Hurtig’s
book (The Betrayal of Canada),
and has started to read the North
Shore News a bit too late. Other-
wise, they could have escaped
most of their mistakes.

’ Now it is hard to believe that
Canada could continue to enjoy
:its ‘home-made cake,’’ never
mind the topping. .

They have certainly realized the
‘fiasco of the unconstitutional

GST. The letters of four premiers
(including two ex-premiers) in my
mailbox attest to this, stating that
it was unjustifiable, unreasonable,
etc.; Ontario and Alberta have
challenged it in the courts.
Though the editors cannot give
out addresses, I wish that Mr.
Cranfield could get a free, four-
color GST-shirt from me some-
how. Its design is a GST graph

with a text ''992: The Vikings of
Leif Ericson discover Canada —
1992: Canadians discover the
GST's secret.”’

Betrayed Canadians should not
be impatient with Mr, Mulroney.
It takes a fong time to wake up
fully from a short, bad dream.

Why reduce accessibility?

Dear Editor:

The North Vancouver District
Council is to be lauded for its at-
tempts this year to be more ac-
cessible to the public.

Why then would it reduce that
accessibility in the future by
voting to hold public meetings
every second Monday, instead of
every Monday?

The fact that the decision was
made late at night (after 11 p.m.),
when mental faculties are proba-

bly. reduced, perhaps indicates
how valid the decision is, and how
valid most decisions are when
made late at night during lengthy
meetings!

One councillor is purported to
have pointed out, ‘It was the men
who stayed.’’ Such a sexist com-
ment even when made late at
night, indicates how much his
mental capabilities needed a rest!
