Of this total 91 reside in the Province of Quebec, 76 of whom are in the city of Montreal, the largest city in Canada. The Province of Ontario is credited with 138 of these rich folk; Manitoba, 21; British Colum­ bia, 9; New Brunswick, 5; Alberta, 4 and Nova Scotia 4. Neither Sask­ atchewan nor Prince Edward Island has a millionaire, but a fair percen­ tage of the population of these two provinces are of comfortable wealth. In Saskacliewan, Alberta and Mani­ toba between 70 and 80 per cent, of the farming population own their own homes. ** ' fft ffenr The Skyline of Toronto 1817 Exeter Branch:T. S.

In other words, the time is not ripe, finan­ cially, for a general reduction in the markers. Every editor an expert.
