“We have developed the technology for putting building designs on computer. This eliminates hand drawing, and also permits simulations to test a building before it is built. Americans are interested in this capability.

The Free Trade Agreement will make possible new freedoms for many Canadian professionals to offer their services in the U.S. In addition, border crossing restrictions will be relaxed.

I believe young Canadian professionals will have the opportunity to demonstrate their skills in the U.S. while continuing to live in Canada.” Canadians are getting ready for Free Trade. The Government of Canada is there to help.

Bare Bum Gets Student Handbook Seized

By Francesca Lo Dico

MONTREAL (CUP) — Con- cordia’s stu- dent council has impounded this year’s student handbook because of an anti-French editorial anda nude photo.

The council kept all 19,000

copies of the handbook when it arrived in the last week of Au- gust and decided at an emergency meeting to remove an editorial written by handbook editor Mike Sportza.

Councillors then spent two days tearing the editorial page out of 9,000 advance copies.

Council is also ripping out a page in the Fine Arts section of the handbook which features a pair of bare buttocks because it is “tasteless and offensive to Fine Arts students.”

Sportza’s editorial al- leged that French “radicals” were attacking the English language in Quebec.

“At some French institutes

of post-secondary education there are roving bands of language po- lice who look out for the use of the English language in personal conversations,” he wrote.

About 20 per cent of Concor- dia’s students are francophone.

“The editorial offended the French-speaking people of Que- bec,” said council co-president Andrew Madsen. “It’s not even constructive criticism. It’s like something you would read on a bathroom wall.”

Removing the naked buttocks s “blatant censorship,” @portza said. “They (council) see a bum and they preach morals and pure values.”

According to council execu- tive Hernani Farias, the photo could compromise relations be- tween council and engineering students, whose section appears on the opposite page.

“It’s our product and we can remove or put in anything we

want,” Farias said.
