Olympic fund bill in Commons
The federal government will introduce a bill in the Commons to authorize an Olympic account for the 1976 Montreal Games. The measure covers coins stamps and possible Olympic lottery with a 12 month limit and a $500,000 deficit cap. Payments to the Olympic Corporation rely on the account balance and production costs. Housing issues involve CMHC and the Olympic Village site controversy.
