More to Spain than fishing dispute</A> </HEAD> <BODY> <H2>More to Spain than fishing dispute.</H2> <P> <I>The Ottawa Citizen, Friday, March 29, 1996</I> <P> In order to get a preview of our new offices on Stanley Avenue, Paul Gessell came to see me and wrote an atricle, including my picture on today's Citizen front page. Thank you for the public relations you are doing for "Sí,Spain", whose chapter on the fisheries issue has not been altered in the last nine months. <P> May I point out the following facts: <OL> <LI>The "Sí, Spain" program has been on the National Capital FreeNet since 1994, in the directory for "Foreign Embassies", and contains a very large amount of information on my country. <LI>It is because of the Web page that the Canadian Department of Fishereis and Oceans created at the beginning of the fisheries confrontation that the Spanish Embassy decided to use the same information highway channel to counteract this move and the distorted information on the Estai. <LI>"Si, Spain", a program with 1,191 files a recipient of five international awards from Canada, the U.S. and Spain, is mainly dedicated to the basic facts of our history, languages, culture, politics, trade, science, travelling along with good coverage of the Spanish media. On the eve of my departure, Gessell reduced that to the 78 files in which the fisheries issue is mentioned in the colloquial and style customary on the Internet. </OL> <P> José Luis Pardos, Ambassador of Spain, Ottawa. </BODY> </HTML>
