THE SOCREDS must be gluttons for punishment. For they have taken Mistress Quickly to their bosom, she being the former Vancouver Evening Wimp carrot-counter. Why don’t they ask Lady Macbeth? It was with some hilarity that your agent heard that ‘*Dear Nicole,’’ who nests on the North Shore and should also be known as Miss Flip-Flop, would be seek- ing the Socred nod in a Burnaby riding. For unless my eyes and ears deceive me, the lady is a Zalm-basher. But it is also a sign of the times, since the trend is for all politics to be homogenized, like milk, so that there will be no tell- ing the difference between the cream and the skim. Burnaby is where the NDP’s Rosemary Brown lurked for many years, and it wouldn’t surprise me if Rosemary joined the Socreds and nominated my gal. If she is elected, Mistress Quickly (so named, as I have kindly explained before, because she writes more quickly than she thinks) would probably be able to get a big provincial grant for her buddy Aziz Khaki, the multicult man who at last report was getting $40,000 a year from the feds. Which she didn’t think was much. Similarly, she never thinks welfare payments are enough, which is a reasen for her sup- porters to push for her being made Minister for Handouts. Which reminds me: Whatever happened to her Take A Multicuit To Lunch campaign? Her flips and flops are like a Star turn on the high wires. Last year, she was flipping into APEC, the Alliance for the Preservation of English in Canada, which she regularly misnamed the ‘‘Association"’ for, etc. She was ‘‘appalled’’ that Provincial Secretary Bill Reid could make himself available to “‘APEC's red-necked forces’’ on Canada Day. A “‘nasty little cli- que,’’ she said APEC was. Then, last month, having forgotten what she wrote previously, she flopped into an APEC-favorable mode. Yes, she wrote — approving of its diligence for detail — APEC had reported we were spending $10 million a day to prop up bilingual pro- grams. Whereupon she bashed Quebec, which she had once drooled over. Be warned, ye of Social Credit faith. Here is a fem who could go off and kiss Mikey on his bald head.

EATON'S Ever eager to keep you inform- ed on the collapse of Canadian society into a mish-mash of the bewildered, I hasten te comment on the skewed reporting of the re- cent hostage-taking at the New Westminster law courts. Honest journalism demanded that the lead paragraph to that in the Evening Wimp and read down to paragraph 17 to get the oh-so-discreetly-phrased informa- tion that ‘‘the gunman was born in China and speaks only Canton- ese.’’ The Morning Wimp told us in paragraph nine that ‘‘the gun- man...speaks Cantonese.”’ The reasons for this timidity are not hard to find. The invading ethnics, financed by your tax dollars, hold seminars at which editors are told what’s good for them. The pressure is unceasing, L, was with some hilarity that your agent heard that ‘Dear Nicole’ ... would be seeking the Socred nod in a Burnaby riding ... the we front-page story in the dailies should have read something like this: **An Asian immigrant who ar- rived in this country two years ago has been held by police after a hostage-taking in which one po- liceman was nearly killed and two others were wounded. The suspect, who was in possession of a .357-calibre handgun, was also wounded.” Both the Morning Wimp and the Evening Wimp were too scared to identify the suspect that plainly. In the morning it was: ‘‘A crab fisherman and three police officers were injured in a shootout yesterday...’ In the evening: “Three New Westminster policemen and a 38-year-old gun- man were wounded Monday...’’. You had to turn over the page lady is a Zalm-basher.”’ and the media have capitulated. Thus Nick Hills, the Sun’s edi- tor-in-chief, prostrated himself before one such group recently to explain how minority-friendly his paper had become. He also announced it was ‘‘real- ly close’’ to fixing things so that job applicants from minority groups would be favored over white Canadians — even though the minorities were less qualified. In addition, Pacific Press was working hard to ‘‘fix the lack of visible minorities among its direc- tors.”” And some peopie wonder why the Sun’s circulation has plunged. This country simply begs to be taken over. And it will richly deserve its fate. save-on-blinds & draperies ne. i permanept discount polics Never seen beforef!!! e buy directly from the manufacturer vino 2 ee gy record breaking Prices ‘ . : 3 Verticals — Over 300 Colours Horizontals — Over 100 Colours Nobody can beat our low prices!! \ save-on-blinds Open 7 days a week for your convenience. * From 9am to 9pm. raperies nc Call for a FREE ESTIMATE today THAT'S HOW MANY CANADIANS ARE HORSE- BACK RIDERS PARNOPACTION. ) | fy ° 9 - Wednesday, June 20, 1990 - North Shore News CANADIAN C CLOSET SHOPS DESIGN. & PRINTING | FROM CONCEPT TO 6 fe. 986-4263 Free home estimates FINIS Ree oe 2443 Marine Drive, West Vancouver 922-0247 Bowen 947-9745, (ee CAPILANO | waNursenvyiand and Florist iro.
