ALIENS:
In order to become a Canad-
Jan citizen, an alien must mect
the following requirements:
(1) He must be legally admitted
to Canada for permanent re-
sidence. This is known as
beig “landed”,
(2) He must have had his place
of domicle in Canada for at
least five years after having
been landed in Canada;
however, to allow for the
three months’ public post-
ing of his application, he
may now file his applica-
tion for Canadian citizen-
ship four years and nine
months after landing in
Canada,

portant exceptions to the re-
quirements of Canadian do-

HERE'S A TIP FOR BUSY SANTAS...

If your gift-list doesn’t seem to be getting
any shorter, make a quick trip to your local
B of M branch. See if you don’t agree that
it’s the ideal gift shop for those * ‘hard-to-buy-

- for’ people on your list.

For the cradle and classroom sets ... there are epecial
passbooks designed to make a hit with the young fry.
‘With a nice balance inside, they ‘make a perfect extra
gift that will grow with them through the years. And
just watch their eyes when they see the gay Christmas
passbook cover.

and adults, too. You can take the worry out: of. ‘shopping
for the hard by giving
BofM Christmas pay in their chaseacay folders
and envelopes. Practical B of M money orders in holly.
decked envelopes save you needless guesswork when
buying for aut-of-towners.

and if you are an employer . . . brighten up ‘your stalls
bonuees by using colourful B of M Christmas cheques.

Why not drop into your neighbourhood B of M
branch today? One short visit will soon restore
that cheery chuckle to your Christmas giving.
