Box 938, Seaforth, Ontario, NOK 1WO Home and school association suggests more taxpayers involvement To the editor: The BruceCouncil of Home and School Associations is made up of Home and School Associations in the county. These include Amabel Hepworth, Central Public, Brant, Township Central, Bruce Township Central, Chesley Public, Elderslie Central, Huron Heights, Kincardine and District Secondary, Mildmay - Carrick, Port Elgin Saugeen Cen- tral, Walkerton Public and W.E. Thompson. As members of the Ontario Feder- ation of Home and School Associ- ations Inc., a province wide net- work of dedicated members, we are committed to informed, and pro- active involvement in our -homes, our schools and our communities to obtain the "Best for Each Learner". We believe parents/guardians are willing and active partners with those delivering education programs and services. We believe "Home and School" at all levels is an advo- "r0 THE EDITOR cafe for the learners in the public school system. We believe cooper- ative and. healthy environments in the home, the school, and the com- munity are necessary for the devel- opment of each learner. We believe local, provincial, and national par- ental networking• is essential. We believe effective communication is critical. In these times of economic restraint, it is important for all concerned parties to work together to implement cost efficient changes in the educational system. With our) students in mind as our fist con- sideration, the Bruce Council of Home and School Associations, submitted 12 suggestions to the Bruce County Board of Education. These varied from towering thermostat settings, wiser and more environmentally aware,use of paper, to more efficient use of board per- sonnel. We also suggested to the board, that strategic planning to update priorities would be of great benefit to all.. As an organization, recognized by -the Ministry of Education and Boards of Education, we are one voice for parents, but at all times it must be remembered that we are working as partners in education to obtain the "BEST FOR EACH LEARNER". Might we suggest to. our fellow taxpayers that you too have a responsibility to work with the Board of Education, by offering constructive suggestions with regards to the wise use of our dol- lars. Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Bruce Council of Home and School Associations. . Nancy Copeland Presiden' Voice for Life board opposes and condemns . abortion service providers final report To the editor: On Dec. 18, 1992, the Task Group of Abortion Service Pro, viders presented its final report to the Minister • of Health Francis Lankin. The minister has promised to implement all of the recominen- dations. The board has reviewed the report and finds it necessary to strongly oppose and condemn its existence. We ask you, the citizens of Ontario, to join us in denouncing this miscarriage of justice. The report was prepared and presented by an 11 member task force all of whom are abortion service pro- viders. It is therefore not surprising that .the recommendations request. the expansion of abortion services. Some of these recommendations include flagrant violations of our civil and democratic rights, It is stated that all hospitals. offering . obstetrics must include abortion facilities, It also states that the College of Physicians and Surgeons must issue a statement to remind physicians that regardless of 'their personal views they have to make abortion - referrals.: ' There is also a demandfor a province -wide injunction barring pro=life protest. Section 2 of ,the Charter of Rights and Freedoms- clearly states that Canadians have a right to the fundamental freedoms of thought, belief, opinion and expression includingfreedom of press and other media of communi- cation and the right to freedom of peaceful assembly. These rights are being ignored by the task force.

"These announcements raise important questions and the Legislature should be recalled so we can get some answers." Among the questions: L.
