An official said air Canada will waive fare restrictions for Vista Jet passengers who have confirmation numbers. The troubled discount airline had Only been in existence since april going head to head with air Canada on the Busy Windsor Toronto Ottawa route. It began operating flights from Winnipeg a month ago. The Winnipeg debut was troubled from the Start As passengers saw their flights delayed by up to 16 hours. The company blamed the delay on the late arrival of a second plane from its supplier. Many local travel agents say they did no to Book clients on Vista Jet because of its unreliability. A i did no to want to risk it. I put clients in that position a Sheridan Gilbert of Thomas Cook travel in Eaton place said. A i done to know Many agents who did. And we did no to get Many asking for less than three weeks ago Vista Jet announced it was expanding its routes to include Edmonton. Transportation expert Barry Prentice said that kind of planning doomed Vista Jet from the beginning. A a lot of people in the Industry observers had to shake their head when they saw the marketing plan to begin with a said Prentice head of the University of Manitoba transport Institute. A you try to establish yourself in the marketplace by giving very Good service reliable service and establish a reputation. Then if there a the Opportunity cautiously he added that Vista Jet a decision to expand its routes at the end of the summer As airlines enter a much slower season was questionable. Vista Jet is the second discount airline to announce its closure this month. Greyhound air which was popular with passengers will not Fly after next sunday. It had been losing Money a making Only $100,000 during the profitable summer season. Prentice said the two airlines Sto a Ries Arentt at All similar and an attempt in the Vista Jet news release to blam Jet both closures on the competitive nature of the Canadian marketplace is ridiculous. He also said he does no to see ticket prices skyrocketing with greyhound and Vista Jet off the scene. A the seat Sale is going to be with us ii charter operations will continue to a with us. If you do want to Fly you la Quot have to be a Little More Fleet of foot and make reservations Early a he said.

In the late 1940s, Mackenzie met up with maj. Hugh Macewing in Calgary and turned the painting Over to him. From there it followed Macewing from one Home to the next until finally ending up in Victoria where it stayed until being discovered by Crossley last month while he was on an artefact finding Mission. A it was hanging in their House All these years a said Crossley adding he knew of its existence by the prints that were made of it and sold to members of the unit. The museum has one of those prints in its Possession. Crossley had been attending a military collectors conference in Calgary when someone told him of a collection of fort Garry horse Memorabilia at a private Home in Victoria. By pure coincidence Crossley was attending a training seminar in that City two weeks later. A so i went Over to her House and there was the painting a said Crossley who also arranged to bring Back some medals and other Memorabilia the lacewings had kept. Removing the painting from its place above her husbands bed and donating it to a museum far away in Winnipeg Wasny to an easy task but for Mildred Macewing it was the right thing to do. A it was like part of our life. It was just always there a she said adding that for Many years it had sat on a Wall overlooking the family As they watched television together. A but we knew it never belonged to us. We had no right to have it in the first Hugh Macewing who was born in Treherne died april i at the age of 90 a 52 years to the Day that he and the other Canadian soldiers had fought and won the Battle of Doe Pinchem. His brother Bill died the same Day in Winnipeg. It had always been his wish that the painting be returned to Winnipeg if and when a regimental museum was opened Here said Macewing but before Crossley showed up at her door they did no to even know there was one.
