-call BILL MELICK at your COLLISION REPAIR -CENTRE
SOUTH END BODY.,
Last week I took my car into the garagefor same minor
repairs. When I went to" collect it, I discovered that the bill was
much more than I could afford right then, The oviner of the
garage refused to let me take my car away until I paid my bill in
full. He said he had a ri,ght through a mechanics lien to hard my
car until I paid up. jg he right?
He's substantially'riglit., The tnan from the garage is correct
in that yon may not take possession of your car until you've paid
in full. However, his gright to hold your car arises not from a
mechanics lien' but from an artisans lien.
An artisans lien attaches to any object which a tradesman'hat '
done work on.,The law gives him -,the right to hold that property
until he is paid. He may, in some cases,,,n11 the goods for
satisfaction of the debt. _
Strangely enough a mechanics lien does not mean it is given to
a mechanic (somebody who_ fixes your car). Rather, it• ariies
most often when a tradesman performs work on real property.
If, for example, you had aluminum siding put on your house the
contractor who did it would have a mechanics lien on your house
until he was paid. ,
It's unfortunate that the -man at the garage wcin't be more
asonable, but until you pay your bill he has a right to keep
ssess' n of your car.

What's all this talk abotit repatriating our Canadian Con-
stitution?,, I thought it was always here.
The -Canadian Constitution is really a collection of many laws,
customs, rules (both wvitten and unwritten) that co -exist with
the main constitutional document of the BritishiNorth America
Act. This British statute of 1867 basically sets out the division of
powers between the provinces and the federal government or
ParlIament and has .always remained in England because of
lack of agreement for 'various reasons', between the provinces
and the feds. As to what procedure should be used in bringing it
back or in amending it. The B.N.A. Act cannot be repatriated
since it was never here but can, if the governing powers so,
desire it, be patriajed.
If I have a mortgage that is to last for 10 years, is it possible
for me to pay it off before the 10 years is up?
According to section 17 'of the Mortgages Act, where a mor-
tgage provides for .redemption (i.e. paying off) at some time
beyond 5 years from its creation, the mortgagor, oaxi redeem by
paying, at any .time after the 5 year period, all capita'. and in-
terest outstanding (also costs) together With three months
further interest in lieu of notice.

I once read about what is called an R.R.S.P. as a good tax
planning method. What's it all about? •
Basically, an R.R.S.P. (Registered Retirement Savings Plan)
hos two-bertefits, (1) whatever money you put into it 'can be used
as a tax deduction in the year you put it in and that (2) for any
earnings on, that year's R.R.S.P. money which accumulate
later, no mit can be exacted exCept when the money is taken out.
There are certain ealCalations to be made to detervaine exactly
how much'money can be put into an R.R.S.P.
I have two queStions kir IMPACT, the first is, Due to what can
only be called itrik-oncilable ,differences, my wife and I are
going to live apart. What would a separation agreement do?
A separation agreement is a contract between husband and
Wife which contains certain terms by which they promise to live
while separated. For example, certain needs, such As payment
for maintenance of the wife by the husband can be stipulated
for.
Secondly, Is it possible to appeal after a decree absolute for
divorce has bean received by my wife?
Generally, one can only appeal from an intermediate order or
decree nisi.
