...building that bears on its face the legend, "Here the Canadian Club Movement had its Beginning, December 6, 1892." Every time I read this in the future, I will be ashamed, for it will remind me that this "prestigious" club has slandered the country it is supposed to bring honor and pride...

His National Union Party, backed by two former Presidents, polled 103,326 votes. Figueres' chosen successor, Francisco Orlich, a former Public Works Minister, drew 97,102 votes, and Jorge Rossi, a maverick from the Figuerista...
