Winter, Lieutenant Governor of Newfoundland; and Prime Minister of Canada, Pierre Elliott Trudeau.~The Master of Ceremonies is CBC broadcaster, Harry Brown, a native Newfoundlander. The entertainment includes musical items by local Newfoundland groups, who sing traditional folk-songs; dances are performed by a group called "The Spirit of '77 Dancers" and a troupe of young male dancers; Rufus Guinchard, Newfoundland fiddler, is part of a lively band of local musicians; and a children's band of ukulele-players. Brendon Kelly, the 22-year-old Newfoundlander who had just completed his cross-Canada run from Victoria to St. John's promoting the Canada Games, is greeted by the dignitaries. Leading the parade of athletes, representing the Provinces from across Canada and from the Territories, is the official symbol of these Games, the Newfoundland dog "Jack". <90mn>
