Roger Slauenwhite sent this response to Mike Nash's query in NetLetter #1456 - Regarding the Shriners' Convention, Toronto 1962. Sales Promotion at the time worked closely with the Toronto Shriners and Air Canada provided 2 tickets on our Galaxy flight to California. The photos below were taken at the University Theatre just up the street from our reservation office. Across the street, we designed and installed "the red tent" for this promotion. The lady in front of the display (below left) is Air Canada passenger agent Dorothy Angier who worked on my team in reservations; a lovely person. The Shriners were responsible for 2 lions in the lobby as part of the promotion, although they did not stay for the movie. Everyone kept their eye on them, just in case! Roger Slauenwhite |

Dave Harwood recently participated in a Zoom session with the C&SS Dorval retirees. The backdrop for him was this poster of a TCA advert circa 1942. |
