I'm sorry to say that one nice young couple we helped was deported. Since they were a little short on hard cash, they made the mistake of crossing back to New York State to sell their car . . . and were stopped by the border authorities on their return. Our lawyer friend had warned them of that possibility and told them what to do if caught, but they were young and apparently forgot the magic words. The pair are now making a fresh start by applying to the Canadian consulate near their U.S. residence. What's really ironic is that if they'd just stayed "out in the sticks" they would probably have been here to take advantage of the amnesty (which, incidentally, ended a couple of months ago).

As back numbers of MOTHER continue to circulate in the States, we're still getting occasional replies to our P & S and are doing what we can for those who write us. We don't think we'll try an organized program again, given our present immigration laws (which are back at the "do it from there" stage). If, however, you'd like to know the procedure for entry into Canada-or wonder what our province of Ontario is like-write to the scribe of our group: Jim Bannister, Box 580, Bolton, Ontario, Canada.
