Manning who has gotten under the skin of his political foes with a controversial television and added to their irritation by warning that they will now resort to spreading lies about his party. A the traditional big old line parties Are losing votes and losing to Reform Quot Manning told a rally of about 500 pumped up party members. A they get real vicious in that last week and the Way they respond. Is that they will come to you with untruths about one of those untruths Manning said is the charge that Reform is getting personal with its television message that the National Unity debate has been dominated by que Bec politicians. The new Reform party and lumps prime minister Jean Chretien and tory Leader Jean Charest in with Sovereign list leaders cities Dueppe of the bloc quebecois and Quebec Premier Lucien Bouchard. Just hours before Manning a speech Chretien who was also campaigning Here likened the ads to the now infamous 1993 tory commercials that poked fun at his face. Manning said no comparison can be made Between the two ads and claimed Chretien is just trying to avoid the main Point in the Reform commercial. A what he Chretien is telling you is simply an attempt to divert and evade attention away from the primary Issue which is the Lack of a plan or a position on the part of the traditional federalists. A i think the Public see that and i am quite Content to leave it to their Manning then went on the offence saying the liberals and conservatives Are hypocritical for blasting Reform on its message that Quebe cers be dominating the National Unity debate. Manning pointed out the liberals have an informal policy of alternating leaders Between Quebe cers and non Quebe cers and the tories used the fact Kim Campbell was from British Columbia to help Seal her leadership bid in 1993. A that was considered perfectly legitimate when they raise it. If someone else raises it it is somehow illegitimate Quot Manning said. He also took a populist poke at Chretien a sudden admiration for his father Ernest Manning the longtime social credit Premier of Alberta. Chretien said Friday that Manning a father would have been disappointed in his songs commercial. A the Ernest Manning was another Prairie populist politician who was attacked every Day of his life by the liberals when he was in Active political life a the Reform Leader said. Manning also scored a National Manning meets two canine supporters in Moose jaw. Unity hit on Charest for his Praise of former conservative prime minister John Diefenbaker. A maybe someone should have told or. Charest that John Diefenbaker a motto was a one a the was not a supporter for special status for anyone and John would be rolling Over in his grave if someone was implying that he was a supporter of the current position of the Federal conservative party grit strategists smell backlash Over reforms to ads continued from a1 this new strategy ensures to a Large degree that Chretien does not have to defend his governments record any More than is necessary. While he trades barbs with Manning Over National Unity and the television ads there is hardly any time to press the prime minister on his failure to scrap the get or his cuts to health care funding. Chretien and his election team who scored big Points in 1993 when a series of tory attack ads backfired on prime minister Kim Campbell smell a similar backlash brewing against Manning. Perhaps worried that political commentators could not connect the dots Between the tory and Reform ads Chretien did it for them. A you know in be been subject to a lot of personal attacks a he said. A i have to Tell you this i always fight Back. You know the tories had bad ads on me last time and they had to take them out. A a it a True that i. Have a physical problem. But i said at the time that god gave me that defect that i accept and he gave me qualities to Manning and his reformers represent More of a threat to Chretien a liberals in some key areas such As British Columbia Alberta and Saskatchewan. However in ignoring Charest the liberals also seem to be saying that they do not want to tangle with the personable Sherbrooke lawyer who is the Only Leader to move his party upward in the election polls. In turning their attention entirely toward Manning the liberals could be running the risk of tipping the delicate balance in seat Rich Ontario that helped them win All but one seat there in 1993. Reform tory Competition for right Wing voters has All but assured the liberals of a Rich haul in this election. Flood Way built to Cope with Strain Manitoba a no fault legislation May Block lawsuit recycled newsprint is used in the production of this newspaper continued from a1 a we were adding to the Factor of safety Quot Steve Topping director of water resources for natural resources. A the existing bolts were in Good shape they had some corrosion but there was no failure of any bolts. We added additional bolts for last year Kos group an engineering consulting firm prepared a report for the provincial government on what maintenance needed to be done and $2.2 million was set aside for the work to be completed Over four years. Kos has now been asked to re evaluate the Structure Given the amount of water it saw this year. A a it a time to look at the whole Structure and get some professional advice on the matter a Topping says. He said work will begin this summer but Kos will make recommendations on what should be completed first and the time Frame has been compressed to three years. Jay Doering head of the Hydraulic research and testing facility at the University of Manitoba and a member of the provincial flood task Force said if the flood Way was a car its due for More than an Oil change. A a it a time to change a bearing or two a he says. A a it a time for the 100,000 Kilometre Check. Its been Nickel and died for the longest time. A but to put it in perspective its a hunk of Concrete with steel Doering added that kind of Structure is hard to Hurt and it was built to handle a lot of water. For something major to go wrong with it he said there would have to be a serious what a sure to be done according to Topping is adding More and better Quality rip rap a boulders the size of basketballs and smaller a along the Inlet Structure to prevent erosion. About 15,000 tons were added during the flood. As Well modernizing the Hydraulic and electrical systems is also on the Agenda.

However Jim Hartford said 18,200 contours and Mercury mystique a built in plants in Kansas City and Mexico a were recalled for seat Belt problems in january of 1996. Among those flagged was the vehicle owned by Gui Boche smother. But Hartford said the recall was due to cracks in the part that anchors the outboard ends of the Belt to the front seat frames. It required reinforcement plates to be installed. A this is not related to what is alleged in the suit a said Hartford adding that they have had no complaints regarding faulty buckles. Gui Boche a construction worker is seeking compensation for among other things the Cost of his care and loss of future income. Wroniak said the claim could be Worth As much As $5 million if successful. But whether the Case goes to trial remains to be seen.
