#4 New Party To Leave Its Mark On Canada LETTERS Only days after it was formed, a Gallup Poll found 4% support for "other parties‘" in the West. That share could climb to 10% or even 20% in the West and as such poses a major challenge to the PC Party. The founding convention passed 27 policy resolutions and as could be exâ€" pected some of them were conflicting. However three main themes emerged: the need for better representation for the West, greater accountability by Members The Reform Party of Canada, born in Winnipeg over the Oct. 30 weekend is destined to leave its mark on Canada. â€" A Little Brains, A Little Talent (from Damn Yankees) This column, if you‘ll pardon the expression, may be the climax of the year. Sex. Better if we‘re healthy? Of course. Better if we exercise? I think so. Reading book after book on how to improve your sex life is great for some people. Actively and physically experiâ€" menting with ideas to restore that old zambola sounds like a better idea. The root of 90 per cent of sex failure is poor physical condition. That is not to say a man or woman who is overfat and out of shape cannot have a successful sex life. Bulging muscles and a fourâ€"miâ€" nuteâ€"aâ€"mile stamina are not essential to enjoying sex. It can reduce the risk of a heart attack in a most uncompromising position, however. There are certainly physical and psyâ€" chological shortcomings which open up the Pandora‘s Box of organic and psyâ€" chological reasons for sexual dissatisfacâ€" tion. Exercise may not be the answer for these troubles. Medical professionals have their work cut out for them in diagnosing and treating impotency, anxâ€" ieties, fears and all the other barriers to healthy sex. Exercise, however, has manner.

This party is not a oneâ€"day wonder. Disenchantment with the status quo and students of the sea learned of the great currents which, like titanic rivers, moved unseen through the body of the sea. These icebergs had most of their great bulk caught in these submarine currents and moved majestically along regardless of the winds and tides on the surface. There is a great analogy here, as to the way we should live our lives. We should have our roots deep in a great moving current â€" a moving stream of conscious direction â€" which will keep us moving steadily toward the destination we have chosen in defiance of the economic and social winds which blow first this way and then that, on the surface. confusion. Instead, each day we move a little way along our course, steadily, unrelentingly. In one day we don‘t seem to make much headway to a casual observer, but, like the iceberg, in a month we have moved an observable distance. At times, others may tear past us with the wind, and then have to tack against a tide, or be becalmed, while we plod steadily on. Above all, we have the wonderful calm confidence that the grip IK, fess up, what New Year‘s resolutions have you made?

Sometimes we encounter storms which current and, though they may delay us, we know they are temporary and soon we are moving ahead once more. This is the life of those who, knowing that they cannot do or become everything in their lifetime, calmly choose that which they desire, and which best exâ€" ploits their talents. They then exclude everything else from their minds and focus on attaining that which they want more than anything else. Relative to others, these people always pointed course, and propelled by a conâ€" suming desire to stay on it, are usually surprised at the speed with which they reach their destination, which encourâ€" ages them to pursue another goal.

Several Alâ€" berta ridings drew hundreds of party members to elect delegates to the party‘s founding convention. Party membership has grown to about 5,000 over the past eight months and that can be expected to grow quickly. If Prime Minister Mulroney‘s PC govâ€" ernment doesn‘t quickly act on a substanâ€" tial measure of the fledgling party‘s platform, there can be no doubt that the RPC will take a substantial part of the PCs electoral base in western Canada. When the dust settles after the next federal election, there may be a dozen Reform Party MPs and more Liberal and NDP MPs from the West.
