Mel Hurtig, publisher of the new Canadian Encyclopedia and chairman of the Council of Canaâ€" dians, warned graduates of Wilâ€" frid Laurier University at Sunâ€" day‘s convocation against the concept of free trade with the United States. Chronicle Special Hurtig, of Edmonton, and Walter Hachborn of St. Jacobs, president of Home Hardware Stores Limited, received honorâ€" ary doctorates, and more than 400 students received graduate and undergraduate degrees in the ceremony. It was held at the Kitchener Aud. with a reception following on campus. The Edmonton publisher harked back to the free trade debate of 1911 when Robert Borden called discussions of free trade ‘"a debate about the very destiny of our country."" And he quoted Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, who once said "free trade is a danger to Canadian sovereignty." Free trade would mean, Hurtig warned, that new companies would be started in the southern United States where there is no medicare, no minimum wage All work done on premises at Westmount Placq 886â€"5520 4 Let us custom frame and mat your favorite ELECT JOHN P.
