Federal Party Leaders are Preparing Arms for the Big Fight

Now that Parliament is ad-
Journed for a long summer re-
cess ani 8 have had a little
chance | to say rhelle to family and
constituents: we can look for-
ward to a steady heating up of
‘the Tory leadership campaign.

There are enough potential
leadership candidates that no
part of the country should

drop in ‘for’a’ rally, a strategy

chat with the local editor,

be a thinkers’ conference in Que-
bec to try to work out some clear
lines of policy for the Progres-
sive Conservative Party and a

So the ‘question of who leads
the party is really the most im-

the most active and articulate
campaigners, but are not neces-
