    Work is one of my hobbies, says chartered accountant Harold Crosby, photographed against the Toronto skyline on his way from Halifax to Edmonton to become president of Canadian Chamber of Commerce. Chamber's commitment to national unity is a firm as its opposition to controls.

    Behind counter of his flagship Diana Sweets stores, company president George Boukydis ponders the future of his $6 million a year enterprise. Stores stopped selling candy some years ago when firm's key candy maker retired after 45 years of service. An adequate replacement was not found and now, says Boukydis, it's getting tough to find pastry cooks. The supermarkets are stealing what few there are left.
