But the prime minister said he doubts the federal government will have to impose a settlement under its special constitutional powera. There ja still a possibility of a federal-provincial first ministers’ conference to discuss oil prices and other oil-related matters, Clark said.

Judge ing Jones, y sentencing King T sald transcripts of telephone taps indicated King provided her clients not only with sexual services, but ‘filled an emotional vacuum” for gome.
