IT
IS
NOW
CLEAR
that
the
present
government
of
Canada
will
not
simply
"accept
sterling"
on
the
over-simplified
basis
that
has
.sometimes
been
suggested,
inside
and
outside
the
parliament
of
Canada,
The
main
reason
for
this
refusal
to
accept
sterling
is
that
Mr.
Abbott
is
betting
on
complete
convertibility,
fairly
soon,
as
between
the
dollar
countries
and
the
sterling
area.
His
optimism
may
or
may
not
be
Justified.
But
meantime
the
Canadian
government
is
as
anxious
as
the
British
government
to
ihfc
PGE,
a
brief
has
arrived
from
West
Vancouver
which
offers
further
arguments
that
are
of
in
teres:
here.
.
It
is
understandable
that,
in
a
very
local
way,
West
Vancouver
should
lie
opposed
to
an
extension
jf
the
I'CJK
into'
North
Vancouver.
Such
a
project
vvould
bring
a
serious
decrease
in
real
estate
v:Jues
along
the
right-of-way
and
prove
generally
undesirable
for
many
residents.
At
the
same
time,
West
Vancouver's
arguments-cannot
be
dismissed
for
this
reason.
The
municipality
has
taken
a
long
look
at
the
whole
proposal
uid
has
emerged
with
some
arguments
which
should
tit
uneasiness
in
any
taxpayer
who
will
bear
part
if
the
.$30,000,000
load
needed
for
the
undertaking.
