a special salute called Ten in the Midnight Sun, will be presented on CBM Radio. BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION: Lizzie Adams and Anakele are just two of the many Indians, Eskimos and Metis, who write, translate or broadcast news and messages in their native languages over can scarcely be questioned, considering the reputation of Canadian actors on television, radio and stage throughout the world." The statement says the new Broadcast Act provides fcr a policy which requires anyone using radio frequencies "to safeguard, enrich and strengthen the cultural, political, social and economic fabric of Canada." Foreign-made variety and dramatic programs dominating Canadian television screens are not "using predominantly Canadian creative and other resources." Foreign produced commercials and the engagement of foreign talent for television and radio commercials do not "safeguard, enrich and strengthen the cultural, political, social and economic fabric of Canada." Canada denied chances "It is not only the performers and writers who have cause for disappointment and dismay. They are being denied a recording industry, a film industry, and any significant Canadian television or radio production. "So far as dramatic, variety and musical programs are concerned, there is considerable difficulty in recognizing the CBC as the 'national broadcasting service that is predominantly Canadian in content and character'. Whatever CBC 'Television is it cannot be predominently Canadian while the prime time hours are dominated by foreign-produced programs." Much of what ACTRA says in this statement presages the tone and scope of the arguments it will present at the CRTC's hearing in two weeks.

Knight said ACTRA executives will meet with a senior official of the immigration department Nov. 20 to ask that Canada apply to outside performers seeking occasionally to work here the same stiff criteria of determining need that is applied to Canadians seeking to work in the U.S. Knight said meetings have already been held with immigration officials "who were shocked" to learn the number of times foreign performers allowed in Canada to do a play-date "pick up commercial work that should go to Canadians." ACTRA declares in its pol-lcy statement: "Canadian performing and writing talent is faced with a massive encroachment; in fact with a virtual takeover.

Foreign variety and dramatic programs dominate television. There is no Canadian content regulation in radio and almost no Canadian content. Foreign-produced television and radio commercials flood our broadcast media. Foreign performers act as commercial spokesmen for Canadian manufacturers. Their voices are the voice-overs on many television and radio commercials, the commercial actors are too often not Canadian actors.

Canadian talent misses out "This all adds up to a loss of opportunity for Canadian talent, the loss of opportunity to live and work in Canada. "Faced with the limitations imposed upon them by a relatively small population in a very large country, Canadian performers require every opportunity to earn a reasonable living. That the talent exists, seeking opportunity, irwaves conne, Bach; Sonata, Bartok. Part II A Dialogue on Progress, An imaginary conversation between Diderot and Rousseau. 8.03 p.m.

Monday afternoon at 3.00 SPECULi Decision by the Association of Canadian Television and Radio Artists to impose on foreign performers a $150 permit fee to take yhs wilhin the association's jurisdiction is but one step Us new drive to secure more work for its 3,000 Canadian members. In a new policy statement, ACTRA has informed the Canadian Institute of Advertising Agencies and the Institute of Canadian Advertisers that this clamp down on unlimited use of foreign performers for commercials in Canada will be effective next Friday. Mora work fought "It's not the money from permits we're interested in," said ACTRA President Victor Knight of Montreal." We just want to make it advantageous for Canadian advertising agencies to employ more Canadians." Before ACTRA will allow a foreign performer a $150 permit, his employer in Canada will have to prove to the association's satisfaction that no Canadian could do the job. The association is also seeking to diminish the practice of Canadian admen having their television and radio commercials produced in the United States and then importing them here.

The association, with the' support of the Canadian film industry, will make a plea before the Canadian Radio and Television Commission in Ottawa Nov. 19 for regulations to govern tha importation of commercials.
