to avert it, unless there is &

the halls of parliament.

1 use the word “‘typical”
because it has happened

again and again in this coun: °

gret it. Prompted by politi-
cal or pecuniary motives,
Canada has gone a long way
toward destroying its very
self and the things that
make it most dear to the
average Canadian,

J am referring to pollu-
tion and the disturbance of
the balance of nature. In the
name of progress we have
fouled our own nest, time
and again, until an outsider
would think we enjoyed
living in our own mess.

Project this a little fur-
