Original Toronto Star caption: Weekend sailor: This is where Alderman Ed Fulton would rather be; at the helm of his 31-foot sailboat; Patriark; which he keeps at the Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club in Pickering. For some politicians the enjoyment of the outdoors requires little equipment. Mayor Gus Harries; 73; just dons a jogging suit before taking his 10-mile walk on the weekends.
