The fears are raised by the multi-billion-dollar cuts to capital spending recently announced by Canadian oil companies, combined with a lingering inability to get some energy megaprojects off the ground. ‘A series of as-yet-unpublished forecasts by .Data Resources of Canada suggest that if current low oil prices persist, Canada will switch from being a net exporter of oil to being a net importer by 1988. Current oil prices of $15 U.S. a barrel mean that Canada will export an average of 25,000 cubic metres of oil a day more than it imports in 1986. These net exports will fall to zero by 1988 and the country will have to import 70,000 cubic metres a day more than it exports by 1995, according to the forecast Jim Osten, director of energy research for Data Resources Canada, says Eastern Canada will have to import virtually all of its oil requirements, while the West will continue to export to the United States. DEFICIT LOOMS “The deficit in oil supply becomes very, very large in the 1990s if oil prices stay depressed,” he said “If the oil industry shuts down on exploration the reserves won't be there to meet future need Gerry ‘Angevine, director of the Calgary-based Canadian Energy Research Institute. “The problem is something that could emerge as early as the early 1990s.” Angevine said this scenario poses great risks to the Canadian economy because it will make Canada susceptible to future price increases imposed by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. In fact, he said, this is part of OPEC's plan Joyce Ritz Yes, I think they should. If B-C. Hydro buys it, our power (rates) will go up about 50 per cent. So he regional districts) can price of our power down. “The OPEC position is to drive out high-cost productiofi wherever it is and leave more share for OPEC.” These fears are underscored by a rash of recent cuts in capital spending as oil companies wrestle with falling crude prices. The Canadian Petroleum Association has forecast that the industry will cut its capital spending this year by about $4 billion. This forecast is borne out by some of the cuts already announced by the major oil companies. Imperial Oil Ltd., second only to Petro-Canada as the country's biggest oil company, will cut its spending from $1.4 billion to $700 million.

The Adolescent Experi ence, a two-year study of 44,744 students in 60 Ontario secondary schools, found teenaged students are con cerned about the future and are more likely to confront important issues than were their counterparts of decades ago. The study, overseen by sociologist. Alan King of Queen's University in King. ston, found that nearly half of those surveyed often think about nuclear war. Many don't believe politicans are doing enough to prevent it 72 per cent said such war could be averted if we tried There was dissatisfaction with the performance of pol iticans. Only eight per cent of boys and seven per cent of girls surveyed said the gov ernment is doing all it can about pollution, while only 26 per cent of boys and 24 per cent of girls said political leaders do their best Even so, “the tendency of young people to withdraw from society that was evident in the 1960s and early 1970s is not present in the attitudes two NEW IN TOWN?

About 240 golfers are competing in the three-day event CosNewsPhote by Phut Coiderbonk Stampeders outscore Lions in exhibition VANCOUVER (CP) — Cal- gary quarterback Rick John- ‘son staked claim to the start- ing position by throwing three touchdown passes as the fired-up Stampeders de- feated the slumbering British Columbia Llons 41-20 Tues- day night in an error-filled CFL exhibition game. The Lions, defending Grey Cup champions, were not sharp as they committed eight turnovers and their quarterbacks were sacked eight times by the aggressive Stampeders. Both teams completed the exhibition season with 1-1 records, but the Stampeders, last in the Western Division in 1985, were much the sharper team in the final tuneup for the 1986 season. Johnson fired two touch- down passes to rookie Can- adian slotback Marshall To- ner, covering 10 and 12 yards, and another scoring strike of seven yards to im- from cornerback Mel Jenkins and veteran slotback Eman- uel Tolbert. Jenkins blocked a punt early in the third quarter and returned the ball five yards for the touchdown, giving the Stampeders a 24-10 lead, and Tolbert caught a 29-yard scoring from backup pivot Jeff Ted- ford in the fourth quarter. J.T. Hay completed the Calgary seoring with 11 points on two field goals and five converts. B.C. quarterback Roy De- walt, the CFL's leading pass- er last season, was inter- cepted three times, although he did throw a five-yard touchdown pass to Mervyn Fernandez.

Perreault, the Sabres cap tain, retires with a host of awards and honors, including ownership of Buffalo team records for goals (503), as sists (807), points (1,310) and games played (1.171). “He never played a game of minor league hockey,” said team co-owner Seymour Knox. “He was a superstar from the start and there's no doubt that he'll be in the Hall of Fame.” Perreault capped his car ecr March 9 when he became only the 12th player in NHL history to score 500 goals. But the native of Victoria vitle, Que., had hinted this would be his last season, and in announcing his retirement Perreault admitted: “I'd lost some speed over the last few years.” Still, he didn't completely close the door on a comeback, adding fuel to reports in Canada that several other NHL teams are interested in him. “Right now, I don't feel like playing hockey too much, but once September comes, you never know,” said Perreault, who would be July 1. “Sometimes with the right offer and everything, might a free agent change your mind Scotty Bowman coach and general manager, said Perreault “will receive an offer from the club “If need be that he has to be protected, we have no problem with that,” said Bowman, adding that the Sa bres have the right to match any offer Perreault may re ceive But the talk Tuesday con cerned more the accomplish Sabres ments of Perreault, whose No. 11 jersey will become the first officially retired by the Sabres.

(AP) — Terry Simpson was named coach of the New York Is- landers today, succeeding A!

Simpson, 42, who had been coach of the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hoc key League for the last 15 years, was given a multiyear contract “After very thorough and careful study, we think we have found the right man to carry on the Islanders trad ition,” said Bill Toreey, the Islanders’ president and gen eral manager “His coaching record speaks for itself. He's been a winner at every level. He knows what he wants and he’s not afraid to go after it.” becomes the fourth coach in Islander his tory Phil Goyette, the first coach, was succeeded by Earl Ingarfield during the club's Simpson inaugural season, 1972-73.

Bears of the American Hockey League, a Philadelphia Flyers farm team, and also rejected a chance to coach the Islanders’ top farm club, the Springfield (Mass.) Indians also of the AHL. The Saskatchewan resi- dent recently was quoted as saying he rejected the Her shey and Springfield jobs be- cause he didn't want to move for a minor-league post. Two years ago, he coached Canada to the world junior championship and directed the club to a second-place finish last year The Islanders finished third last season in the Pat rick Division and were elim inated in the first round of the playoffs by the Washin gton Capitals.
