And in the two cases where the security officials’ intervention was appealed, the appeals failed. The spies kept their secrets. The recent use of a little-known section of the Canada Evidence Act by Canada’s domestic spy agency — the Canadian Security Intelligence Service — has renewed fears that the agency's obsession with secrecy could overshadow the right of an accused to defend himself properly. In the Reyat case, after a ban on publication of evidence was lifted last Friday, the public learned for the first time about the bizarre intervention in a Duncan courtroom last March of a CSIS official, Joseph Wickie. Wickie, deputy director-general of the service's B.C. region, rose three times during Reyat’s preliminary hearing — in effect, to instruct provincial court Judge Robert Metzger to halt questioning of two of Wickie's agents. Wickie claimed that questioning by defence lawyer David Gibbons about the number of personnel involved in a surveillance operation could harm national security. The judge conceded Wickie had the authority to act as he did.

In the fall of 1983, a similar incident occurred as Justice S. Martin Toy presided over a voir dire (trial within a trial) to determine the admissibility of wiretap evidence in the trial of B.C.’s most notorious activists, the so-called Squamish Five. Justice Toy was of the opinion that since the RCMP Security Service (the forerunner of CSIS) had kept the accused under surveillance, it should make its findings known to the court. “If (security) observed these people, no matter what hat they wear, or whether they are hiding behind cloak and dagger, they should give the information,” the judge said. But as with Judge Metzger in the Reyat case, Justice Toy was apprised of Sections 36.1 and 36.2 of the Canada Evidence Act and was told the act preciuded some “prope? administration of justice” — as provided for in Section 442.1 — would be compromised by the two agents giving public testimony. But while Wruck failed to have the hearing held in private, Wickie succeeded later the same day in having questioning on the grounds that it might compr national security. Lawyer John Conroy, who was acting for the youngest of the accused, Julie Belmas, recalled thabCwe wa “we wanted to see many (AP) — Ten weeks after the Chernobyl nuclear accident, many Europeans still have to choose carefully what they eat and are haunted by predictions of inereased cancer rates.

No doubt there remains pride, but many worry about its future. Members have traditionally been war veterans, but the last Canadian combat soldiers went to war a generation ago in Korea. And as the legion celebrates its 60th anniversary as a key centre in many Canadian ities, there are carry out the aims of the legion.” It wasn’t until 1972 that sons and daughters were finally allowed to join as associate members — but they couldn't vote on legion decisions. Change had come slowly, but the reality of the organization's future under the exclusive stewardship of war veterans was beginning to hit home, says McDonald. Members’ children were given full voting privileges in 1980, but have yet to penetrate the executive echelons of the questions about its role and chances of survival. “God forbid we have another war,” says outgoing legion president Steve Dunsdon of Summerland, B.C. “But sooner or later there'll be no more veterans. If we don’t start handing it all over to our sons and daughters, there won't be a legion in the future.” Many view the legion as a social club that provides cheap beer for members and poppies on Remembrance Day. The stereotype of a legion hall is a crowded room of grizzled old sweats swapping war stories over schooners of draught beer. It’s that stereotype that prompts many to believe the legion should be left to die an honorable death with the last Canadian veteran. But the group's 600,000 members also raise more than $30 million a year for senior citizens’ housing, scholarships and contributions to youth groups and sporting events. “We're the largest service group in Canada,” said newly elected president Tony Stacey of Toronto. “I don't think that with all we do in the community, we'll ever become extinct.” About 1,800 branches across the country also own buildings and real estate worth hundreds of millions of dollars. “We need to keep the Legion alive — not just for the veterans, but for the community we serve,” says Doug McDonald of Brantford, Ont., legion president from 1976 to 1978. To keep it alive means opening its doors to non-service members beyond the children of members, who after years of discussion are now allowed in as associate members. FOUGHT CHANGE The idea of non-service members has always stirred resistance among the troops. ‘As far back as 1928, the organization's first president foresaw the Legion's demise if it continued to depend exclusively on veterans for membership. That was just two years after the legion was incorporated as the Canadian Legion of the British Empire Le&gue, and Lt..Gen. Sir Percy Lake of Victoria, B.C., encouraged the induction of sons and daughters. But few legionnaires were ready to take up Sir Percy's call. The declaration of war in 1939 effectively shelved discussion of non-service members for decades. In the meantime, even the new generation of veterans created by the Second World War was not immediately welcomed into the group's top positions. “The vets from the first war who were running the legion said to themselves: “Those damned kids aren't going to take over my organization,’ ” recalls Dunsdon, who joined after returning from Europe in 1946. “The same thing is happening today. A lot of legionnaires just don’t trust their sons and daughters to "And this year the national convention turned down 2 proposal to encourage the 150, 000 associate members to play a greater leadership role. But members like 66-year-old Pete Bergos of Edmonton foresee a transition of power by decade's end. “Tve had my day,” said Bergos. “It's time for the younger ones to take over. But not until the time is right.” BELIEF REMAINS And even if the legion is eventually transformed into service club like the Kiwanis or Lions’ Club, Stacey, the new president, believes one major difference will remain: the legion's Articles of Faith. Among the articles is the long-held belief that Canada must increase its armed forces to protect national sovereignty But while the legion maintains its hawkish traditions, it is also a strong supporter of world peace as it remembers the dead of three wars. “We don't want to see another war,” says Stacey. “We know the cost of war better than anyone. “I sincerely believe the legion will always be the conscience of the nation .. . not only by pursuing the goals of peace, but also in our own n communities by supporting youth and the aged.” Funniest jokes surprising VANCOUVER (CP) — If you dislike coarse language and sexual innuendo, you're unlikely to appreciate off- color humor, says Phil Smith a psychology professor at the University of British Colum bia.
