HIGHLIGHTS OF THE LAST *
SESSION "
The session is finally over after
a stormy confrontation between
the Government and the Opposit-
411i ion on Bill 274, the Education Bill,
which will impase, compulsory
arbitration to deal with the mass
resignations of teachers across
• Ont ario. There was a great deal
of unrest in the past year over the
Government-imposed budget
Z i. ceilings on ucation spending.
The Minist of Education,
Thomas Wel s promised 'to
introduce legislation on the
Revile Report which dealt with
teacher-school board
negotiations, but did so only in
the dying hours of ,the session.
Bill 274 was an interim Bill to deal
with the immediate situation, but
was greeted with a great deal of
contempt by the Opposition and
the teachers alike. What is
shocking is the fact that the
Government has stepped in to
change a contract between two
parties without the agreement of
*
either party. A huge rally was
held at ,Maple Leaf Gardens on
December 18, where 30,000
teachers, with the support of, the
OppOsition, showed their
solidarity against Tom Wells.
In the 4 next session of the
Legislature, Mr. Wells will be
introducing a more comprehen-
sive Bill on teacher-school board
negotiation as well as his
Consolidated Education Act, both
of which will be referred to
committee for full discussion.
During the last session the
Government committeed many
blunders. 'In the Budget,

Mr. Welch has also stated that
he plans to introduce new
legislation giving Toronto special
status so that it can build
non-profit housing for rental
purposes only, not for sale to
individual .homeowners.
Asi traffic gets continually
worse in \i'vletro Toronto, the
Government's only solution is
the futuristic new intermediate
capacity transit system to be built,
by the,West German firm of
Krauss-Maffei. A test track is to
be built at the CNE, but the
system itself will not be
operational until the mid-1980es.
This will not help relieve traffic-

of the natural landscape of the
