Original Toronto Star caption: All stuck together the way he says the pieces ought to fit, miniature model of controversial sculpture titled Je Me Souviens (I Remember) was uneviled yesterday by sculptor Armand Vaillancourt. The model made of black styrofoam represents 100 huge chunks of cast iron now rusting on grass of High Park. The $211,000 masterpiece can now be put together by his assistant, Vaillancourt says, but he promises to check final assembly.

Our son Matthew ought to be raised in a city like this, says Andrew Biemiller, formerly of Washington, D.C., a psychologist at the University of Toronto Institute of Child Studies. He didn't choose Canada because of the draft - his wife Frances was from Toronto - but he says the war has left the U.S. with unsolved problems.
