Adilman, Sid.  1994.  Lion King rules Canadian box office.  Toronto Star,
        19 August B3.


  The following information is taken from the above titled article:

        "Canadians coast to coast packed movie houses this wash-and-dry
  summer, spending most of their cinema-going money on family far and
  thrillers.
        Collectively, we paid at least $15.7 million to make _The Lion King_
  roar the loudest at the box office-the biggest hit of the summer, and of
  the year so far.
        _Speed_ raced to thrilling second place, taking in at least $11.2
  million.
        _True Lies_ piled into third with at least $9.7 million.
        As with _The Lion King_, families also came out in huge numbers
  paying at least $8.2 million to see _The Mask_ and at least $7.7 million
  for _Forrest Gump_, the surprise summer attraction.
        Thrillers _The Client_ followed with at least #3.3 million and
  _Clear and Present Danger_, at least $2.3 million.
        By mid-summer, _The Flintstones_, which got the jump on summer, had
  petered out but not before frolicking in Canada for a total box office of
  about $9.5 million.
        By the end of this month, _The Lion King_ will disappear from the 
  movie theatres across Canada and the United States but will return to big
  screens for Thanksgiving.
        In a clever and unprecedented movie, the Disney folks have decided
  to pull their worldwide animated blockbuster because kids start school-and
  bring it back when they next have a long weekend free from classrooms.
        We also loved new Disney animated fare at home this summer.  Stay-at-
  homes rented or bought one family movie most: _The Return of Jafar_, the
  sequel to _Aladdin_, released directly on home video."
