Yours truly, Evelyn Sparks Volunleer Co-ordinator for day camps Durham Centre ther Canada should bave lot- terles, or who should control themn. Lotteries and gaines of chance have become a way of life, particularly since Ottawa set up Loto Canada to, help finance the debt left froin Montreal's Olympie debacle. In addition, the fInancial support for amateur sports and community projects pro- vided by the proceeds of pro- vincial and federal sweepstdoes has been helpful. S1111, the systein seens <o, have gone berserk. Adverdisiag budgets for virtually ail of the lotterles have rocketed as the market peaked. Now, federal government promoters are attempting to, squeeze the small businesses who made the schemes so suc- cessful. Supermarkets are ai- lowed to sel Loto Canada tickets, pulling business away fromn the corner store.
