(23 May 1975) RR7521A CANADA MONTREAL'S OLYMPIC CRISIS

Will the 1976 Olympic Games open on time? With less
than 14 months to go before the opening ceremonies,
construction workers on the new sports complex in
the host city, Montreal, have gone on strike for the
second time in six months. They are spearheading a
campaign against anti-union legislation that is fast
becoming the biggest labour dispute in Canada's
history. Meanwhile, the 125 acre site remains a
confusion of concrete, mud and metal. Inflation, too,
has hit the Olympic project with costs soaring to three
times their original estimates. Mexico or Munich
could stage the Games at short notice. That would
save the Olympics, but shatter 'Drapeau's Dream'-
the vision of Montreal's dynamic mayor, who still
maintains his city will beat the clock and the costs.
