Dryden As Hub under study fort Frances ont. Spe Cial Are being consid ered to make Dryden the Hub of a regional system of airlines As feeders to trans air Ltd. Which recently was granted Permis Sion to provide Boeing 737 Jet service to both Dryden and Sault Ste. Marie. Formerly the Winnipeg to Toronto route included Thunder Bay As its Only Stop. The earliest possible Date for the extended Jet service Accord ing to officials would be in june. Bob Scott the company s Public relations director said work on developing schedules is Well under Way but a 45-Day period notice is mandatory in order that the changes can be listed in the official airline guide to that connecting lines can be notified and customers informed. Since Landing a Jet in Kenora is impractical trans air pro poses a service with twin Turbo prop aircraft to operate be tween Winnipeg red Lake Kenora and Dryden that would make Good fast connections at Dryden. Other Northwestern Ontario carriers Are also inter ested in providing connections which would make Dryden the air Centre of the Region. Application has been made and approval is expected soon by Canadian Voyageur airlines of fort Frances to take Over the entire feeder service of Hie Region. Voyageur has purchased a Cessna 402 10-place Turbo prop plane with a View of Mak i n g twice daily connecting flights from this Border town. Capable Crew and gr6und handling personnel have been engaged and a hangar has been provided for the proposed ser vice.

But if we think in terms of Canada s total development Churchill is the Centre Point of the or. Briant who the Manitoba development corporation said he Felt this centrality during his visit Here. Asked if he would be prepared to forsake Montreal for Chur chill or. Briant said he could see himself one Day possibly making such a move. As he boarded the plane for Winnipeg late Friday afternoon to attend conferences starting at 8 . Saturday he re marked that it might interest conservative party Leader Sid Ney Spivak to know that this is another one of those weekends when he is too Busy in Mani Toba to consider a trip to Mon Treal. The economic development fund or. Briant said was created to assist people in communities like Churchill. Interestingly six per cent of All the loan applications received so far come from Churchill. Since the fund became opera Tive at the first of this year 57 applications have been received. Prior to the Board meeting 27 had been approved amounting to Here 13 More were approved bringing the total to 40. Or. Briant thinks that this is an admirable record in compar Ison with Mac and its predecessor which has approved 225 Loans in 12 years. He admits that Mac Loans Are normally much larger and More Complex but still in his estimation the Cerf Board and staff have moved with a Pace and directness that people Are unaccustomed to find in govern ment the strength of the fund which resulted from legislation passed late in the 1971 Legisla Ture sitting or. Briant said is its flexibility. Its terms of reference Are to make funds Avail Able to people in isolated and economically disadvantaged communities who have ideas for viable enterprises but do hot possess the collateral or proven managerial ability that would make them eligible for Loans through Normal institutions. The fund s legislation also stipulates that technical and management consultative ser vices can be made available to the applicants without charge where necessary or at a mini Mal fee. In Many cases the applicants Are Young people and through the fund Are Able to get started in businesses valuable to them selves and their communities. In Many ways we Are sowing Johnny Appleseed. If nine out of 10 take Root and grow others will want to try and Well have a crop of new enterprises and employment i n communities where there has been Little of or. Briant emphasized that the fund is meant to comple ment and not compete with nor Mal banking services.
