The nation’s highest court is cx-.

pected to decide by.. Christmas
whether it will hear the -coali-

TERRACE —. Skeena New
Democratic Member of Parlia-
ment Jim Fulton says he’s run-
ning for the nomination ta
tepresent his party in the next
federal election.

Speaking last week, Fulton said
a date has yet to be set for the
nomination.

“T'm even starting to firm up
some Tory support,’? the MP
added.

He was responding ta rumours
that he would not run again.

Fulton was first elected in 1979
and re-elected in 1980, 1984 and
1988. oe

The MP specutated that the fed-
eral election will be held: next
spring.

That’s based on the upcoming
referendum on the.new constitu-

tional package which will add,

seats in B.C.
elected Senate.

The planned referendum date of
Oct, 26 does nol leave Prime
Minister Brian Mulroncy enough
time for a lite fall 1992 election,
said Fulton,
