Most remarkable It was the most remark- able illusion that ici yelled to the club owner that Peter Abbott created, except that this illusion wasn't in his repertoire and it was show- ing real teeth. It all happened when Ab- bott was loading his van after a magic show. Because he had so many props, he had to make several trips, but was careful to lock his van after each trip. He opened the door for the final load and was confronted by a snarly black Labrador, complete with a filled water dish. Abbott blinked, but the dog didn't go away. Then he he had just up a living dog inside a locked van and didn't have the slightest idea how he'd done it. The two men spotted an identical van down the street parked outside a restaurant and on making inquiring dis- covered the restaurateur owned the dog and the van. He had given his keys and his dog to an employee with in- structions to put the dog in his van and the employee got the vehicles mixed up.

(CP) — New Brunswick is fast discovering there is no easy way to guarantee equal social, cultural and educa- tional development in a coun- try with two official lan- guages. After 20 years of bilingual policies in Canada, New Brunswick, which has its own official languages act, has struck off on another tack. In last spring's session of the legislature, the Progres- sive Conservative govern- ment passed two bills that guarantee the rights of the French and English people of New Brunswick to separate educational, cultural and so- cial institutions. Groups representing the province's 250,000 franco- phones, 35 per cent of the population, welcomed official unilingualism. In particular, the act separating the school system along linguistic lines was heralded as a major step forward in a province where the majority population is anglophone. But the new lati Many families have both English and French roots, al- was not so welcome in Grand Falls. This western New Brunswick town geographi- cally and spiritually sits be- tween the English south and French north of the province, a heritage that made biling- ualism a necessity. PREMIER OPPOSED Some people in Grand Falls cling to the goal of bilin- gualism, even after it has fallen out of favor with Pre- mier Richard Hatfield. “They can't have bilingual- ism,” Hatfield said about Grand Falls. “I don't think anybody can have bilingual- ism. They can have their children trained so they can speak and .be proficient in two languages. That’s what we are doing and that’s what we will do in Grand Falls.” though form the majority. A number of English and mixed families want their children to speak French flu- ently. They decided years ago that since French seems more difficult to learn than English, their children would start out in the French schools of Grand Falls. “Grand Falls really is a bilingual community, both languages are freely spoken Cutting all profit to retain market NANAIMO (CP) — An overflow of retail food space in this Vancouver Island community has forced one supermarket to reduce prices to the point of temporarily cutting all profit to retain its share of the market. the over-all profit picture for the company.
