servatives’. $8 billion plan to purchase between :10 and.

chorus in’ what is - becoming - a country-wide | outcry
against the extravagant scheme;: "
» A recent national poll; conducted for the Canadian
. Centre for Arms: Control and Disarmament showed 59
per cent of Canadians’ polled are far:-from convinced
the country would be.any better off for the investment.

Shore, less glamorous but more immediate i issues need
attention...” a
