Old agencies return

By CasNews Staff
Three major car rental agencies have

The new contract for the rental
agencies began Jan. 1 but Michelson
noted that Avis hasn't set up its
counter yet.

He added that there are only three
counters available at the Castlegar
airport. The Transport Ministry has a
policy of allowing only four rental
agencies in most Canadian airports.

But Michelson said there has never
been as many as four counters at
Castlegar.

He said when the terminal was built,
there were four available, but when the
counters were tendered five years
ago, there were only three available.

“They figured there was ‘all that
could viably operate at the time,” he
said.

Michelson said there was talk of
adding a fourth counter at one time,
but there is not additional space.

Airport.

Airport manager John Michelson
said Budget, Tilden and Avis rent-a-car
submitted tenders during bidding last
month for the three vacant counter
spaces at the

An auction was held Dec. 7 to assign
airport car rental counters across
Canada for the next five years.

Michelson said the only change in
this year’s bidding was that the tender
from Avis came from head office. Five
years ago, the tender came from a local
company operating under Avis as a
franchise.

That company closed its counter at
the airport about a year ago and since
that time»there has only been two
counters at the airport.

BEER BUSINESS

Ready's second coming

HALIFAX (CP) — The sec-
ond coming of James Ready,
a 19th century New Bruns-
wick brewer, may have been
just the miracle Moosehead
Breweries hoped for.

The quick success of James
Ready's lager, product of a
happy marriage between an
old, revived formula and new
bottling, has been the clear-
est sign that the Maritime
beer market is pulling out of
the doldrums.

Beer sales in the Maritime
provinces are said to be on
the upswing again thanks to
new brands, new bottling and
a thirst for the variety en-
joyed in other parts of the
country.

Oland ies, the Lab

att's-owned rival to indepen-
dent Moosehead, has had
trobule meeting demand and
Carling O'Keefe has intro
duced Canadian-brewed Mil-
ler, which took Ontario beer
drinkers by storm last year.
Moosehead has held the
formula for its new brand
since 1928, when it bought
the New Brunswick brewery
started in the late 1800s by
James Ready.
Ready’s, the first Maritime
brand to switch to long-
bottles, has become
Moosehead's best-selling
product in Nova Scotia and is
gaining popularity in New
Brunswick and Prince Ed-

Oland, conceding Ready’s
has hurt its sales, is switch-
ing its top brands to the
long-necked bottles. Since
the bottling change in No-
vember, Oland has had trou-
ble meeting demand and took
out newspaper ads apologiz-
ing for the shortages.

CANADA LACKS
LONG-RANGE-
PLANNING

By KEN SMITH
(CP Economics Writer

The basic problem facing Canada’s economy as it tips a
toe cautiously into the new year can be summed up simply.

There's a lack of effective, long-range planning.

Although such planning should be essential, even a brief
check of events during the last decade indicates that
government, business and labor leaders — who should know
better — have been scrambling from event to event and
reacting after the fact.

There are plenty of recent examples, starting with the
decision of oil-producing countries in the Middle East to push
petroleum prices to the sky.

OK, it’s true that no country anticipated such an action.
But some countries, such as Japan, quickly worked the new
factor into their long-range plans and, within a couple of
years, had achieved an effecti

Canada? It seemed to stumble on from month to month
and year to year, apparently hoping that somehow the whole
mess would go away and the world could return to normal. If
there was an effective, central plan to deal with the
economic threat imposed by the oil cartel, it missed the
attention of economists.

THERE'S MORE

What about inflation, loss of productivity growth,
rocketing interest rates, soaring unemployment and —
perhaps most glaring — the severity of the 1981-82 recession
which almost all leaders seemed to ignore until it was deeply
set?

What has been done to plot Canada’s recovery?

These are legitimate questions, but there's a shortage of
answers.

In all fairness, it should be noted that Ottawa has been
pretty successful in tackling inflation — though at a terrible
cost in unemployment — and there's always that old saw
about it being hard to remember your job is to drain the
swamp when you're up to your backside in alligators.

But the fact remains that essential reaction to fresh
economic problems as they have developed has been to try
to respond after the fact.

This criticism is not confined to governments.

Since the end of the Second World War, business
leaders won promotions and bonuses on the basis of juicing
up their year-end profit levels — so much so that the bottom
line has become a cliche — and ignoring the future.

LABOR GUILTY TOO
Labor leaders? They have to carry part of the can too.
They didn't recognize the shift that was coming, and
now is accelerating, of workers from so-called blue-collar
jobs to service industries.
Why this short-sightedness?
} It probably is the result of about three decades of
unparalleled economic expansion that lulled people into
thinking growth would continue forever.

It has taken the shock of recent years to show that
expansion isn't handed down by God — it needs someone
| here to direct the economy on to the path that allows as
many people as possible to benefit.
What's to be done?

A lot of the people responsible for planning will be quick
to say they can't anticipate all events that will come up
during the next decade. One noted drily recently that he
couldn't say whether a big comet would crash into the earth
during the next 12 months.

What the experts, aided with their computer models,
can do, however, is build up reasonable scenarios

They can project trends based on existing circum-
stances. Then they can alter some of the input to the
projections to predict what would happen if, for example,
unemployment were miraculousy reduced to three per cent.

The technical ability to make these varying projections
exists. What is needed is the personnel who can look at
potentially unfavorable developments in the long term, and
decide how to turn them around so Canada gains.
