Alberta ministers say cruise radar tests in Canada outside provincial control
Alberta Intergovernmental Affairs minister Jim Horsman says defence matters are not a provincial responsibility and the province was not informed about U S cruise missile radar tests in Western Canada. At Suffield and near Magrath and Waterton Lakes National Park radar equipment was tested, not missiles, by joint U S and Canadian teams during late 1982 to early 1983.

Grainworkers End Overtime Stand, Return to 40-Hour Week
Vancouver grainhandlers resume normal shifts after a weekend overtime ban. Henry Kanes of the Grainworkers Union says workers will work 40 hours weekly until wage talks with the six-member Terminal Operators Association, which raised offers by five cents, are resolved. The union seeks a $1.30 raise to match longshore pay, while companies push for a government-backed resolution via potential lockout.
