BRUSSELS POST, OCTOBER 15, 1980 old Canada toget The Camadian Parliament is once again in session. M.P,'s were recalled one week, early to debate patria- tion of our constitution, a debate which will be long and contraversial. An issue which is overdue and essen, tial. A' daydream which may become a nightmare., Thetask before our Government is immense,, They must find a way to hold • together a country whith is • diOided by countless ged- graphical and cultural bar- riers. Creating a workable .= constitution for Canada may be the most difficult job that any governMent has ever faced: Nevertheless,. Cana- dian unity is not, impossible. Canadik stair together because the people of this, , country want: it to. Since we - do want Canada to remain' united, we will find some. solution to keep it that way. " After all, 'we were the people that built the impossible railway. If our government, leaded, are going to make the, dream into a realitYs, ',they` ,must tread on very thin ice. Otir leadeis must, ',enstire that. Canada will be a"conntry that is in- -the *heart of every citizen, not merely a country that is found on a piece of paper in Ottawa. The first ministers of this country must complete the national dream. To instill Canada into the hearts of us all, our govern- ment must create a constitu- tion that will be for Cana- dians. This is perhaps why a National Charter' of Rights is necessary. A Canadian Char- ter of Rights would give us a feeling of belonging in the same way that the Magna Carta makes all Britons feel united. A Charter of Rights may truly create a Canadian personality. A Charter of Rights may create a Cana- dian common denominator. A common denominator which will lceep Canadi strong and united. A com; mon denoMinatof which will, keep the ,,drearn aliye, Since the dream of a • united Canada:has been alive for .113 Years, there is, no reason for it stop*. All Cana- dians are proud of what we have accomplished and we look forward to what we will accomplish. We are proud of our heritage. This is why, I fee) that 4e*. must remain sovereign. Our ties with great Britain give us a history to look back on. If the link with' England' is broken, it will cut us off from the past , and without a past, there cant be no future. Larry O'Malley WINNING Winning is the second step and wanting to win is the first. •No, the novel "Win- ning" was not about a game in football or basketball that was teetering on the balance of championship or loss, but a story of a teenage fighting the game of life and at the end of the battle, coming out a winner. This young teen- ager has to face the fact that he will be a cripple for s the test of his life. Gary Madden is no longer the star of his football team. During one normal football game an untimely fall chang- es the entire pattern of his life. He is now feeling alone.
