Bruce McLellan,
marketing manager for
Co-operative
Wholesalers in FPeter-
borough, Ont., said the
market wholesale price
hasn’t changed in the last
four weeks and that all the
orders have been delivered
to retailers.

“The lower turkey prices

in Ontario nally happens
with what norma ppens
before Christmas,” he said.
“The chains advertise
turkey at very attractive

‘obvious that some Canadian

Ontario.”

Roe Zanutlo, Ontario meat

Dominion Stores Ltd., said
Dominion is selling turkeys
below cost.

He said there is no point in
consumers waiting until the

Christmas turkey because
his store does not plan to

lower the prices again before
Dec. 25.

McLellan said that in the
past ‘‘a terrific number of
consumers buy their turkey
the first two weeks in
December.” .

He also cautioned shop-
pers against holding out for
lower prices closer to
Christmas because turk

about $37 million.

In an interview, he sald he
intends to file a notice of
appeal within 30 days. On
Tuesday, Bishop Jacob Wurz

Mr. Justice Patrick

ruled Monday that the
colonies must pay the cor-

1966 to 1975.

In his ruling,
Mahoney said the tax does

member to practise his

While Matheson sald four
colonies in Alberta and
