anxieties of the world, and
concentrate• upon our many
blessings. However, this is
not always easy to do.
Often over the.Christmas
Season, we hear the words
"Peace on Earth, Goodwill to
All Men", and sometimes I
wonder if this has become an
impossible dream for
mankind'.
Today, telecom-
munications have tran-
sformed the world into a
Global Village. Whatever
happens to one group, or one
nation, touches usall deeply.
Nor can we ignore the suf-
fering of our fellow -men.
Here in Canada, we are, in
many ways, very fortunate
compared 'with people in
other parts of the world. We
live under a democratic
system of government, in a
land of peace and com-
parative prosperity. It's true
that inflation has had a
considerable effect on all our
lives - in some cases causing
very real hardship, but,
comparatively speaking, we
still have many blessings for
which to be thankful.
Certainly, at this period in
Canada's history, we are
confronted with problems -
many of them quite serious.
Inflation has adversely af-
fected our lives. Unem-
ployment has reached crisis
proportions - we are par -
good year, we look forward to one
even better, shared with our friends.
