Canada May Be World's Third Trading Power
OTTAWA, Dec. 16 --(CP)- Expanding exports may make Can- ada this year the world's third largest trading power. government trade experts said Thursday.

This year, however, the French grain crop was slim while Canada's soared to the biggest in history. Canada also has boosted sales of newsprint, metals and flour and other goods.
