Focus is women's contributions
11ERstory of Work: Recognizing Women's
Contributions is the theme for the second annual
Women's History Month across Canada this October.
Why the focus on women and work? The history of
Canadian women at work is quite simple: women
have always worked. However, women's work,
whether paid or unpaid, is consistently less valued
than men's work - because it is done by women.
Consequently, women's contributions to Canada's
economic and social development have gone largely
unheralded and unrewarded.
Historically, women's workcentred around the
family, household management and community
development. Pioneer women in Canada labored
alongside their husbands, planting crops, making food
and clothing and tending livestock. Their work was
considered vital. But that changed with the Industrial
Revolution, which brought the division of the private.
and public spheres of life, and the concepts of paid
and unpaid labor.
When women began to enter the paid labor force in
the early 1900s, the only acceptable careers were an
extension of their domestic role - such as nursing or
teaching - at a much lower rate of pay than their male
counterparts. During war times, women in Canada
were propelled into manufacturing and factory jobs to
ensure the vitality of the nation's industrial sector
while men were away at war. At the end of World
War II, however, women were once again relegated
to their homes and domestic life.
Today, the workplace has drastically changed.
Women now represent 45 per. cent of the paid
workforce in Canada, and have many more choices
than their forelothers. Many occupational barriers
;have been remoied. Despite. these advances, on the
average, ,a woman earns about 70 cents to every
dollar earned by a man; the figures are much less for
many aboriginal and immigrant women.
Women are often limited to lower -paying jobs -
apprgximately 80 per cent of administrative support
services are occupied by women. While women now
account for almost half the workforce, they ,continue
,to bear primary responsibility for ' family and
household.
The reality of women's contributions to work in
Canada now is truly extraordinary. Between 1975 and
1991, women accounted for almost three-quarters of
employment growth in Canada. Women start busines-
ses at three times the rate of men. And it is estimated
that women's unpaid work accounts forr one-third of
Canada's Gross National Product.
Women's History Month is designed to foster an
appreciation for the past and present contributions of
women .in Canada. Many events are being planned
across the country to increase awareness and
understanding of the role of women and work in
Canada.

Delegation discusses options
for laneways with council
ASHFIELD TOWNSHIP - During
council's meeting on Oct. 5, Mr.
and Mrs. Neufeld, Don Kenesky,
Ed Stem and Likda Dejmek dis-
cussed again the possibility of pur-
chasing part of the road allowance
on David Drive, Plan 590, south of
Port Albert.
Other options were discussed
including the possible extension of
a graveled roadway to their proper-
ty boundaries or the possible exten-
sion of individual laneways out to
the existing graveled area of David
Drive.
Mr. and Mrs. Harold . Herman,
also of Plan 590, indicated their
opposition to any proposed sale of
part of David Drive road allowance.

The Used Vehicle Information Package.
Are you planning to buy or sell a used vehicle privately?
Starting on October 4, 1993, the requirements for private sales of used vehicles
will change"
Getting the answers to some important questions hasn't always been easy. How many
previous owners were there? Are there any loans still outstanding against the vehicle?
• These questions will now be answered in a Used Vehicle Information Package.
As of October 4, 1993, private sellers will be required to buy a 'Used Vehicle
Information Package before offering a vehicle for sale. When potential buyers come
to view the vehicle, the seller must hand them the information package to read. When the
vehicle .is sold, the seller must give the Used Vehicle Information Package to the buyer
along with the vehicle documents.
• When the new owner registers the vehicle at a Driver and Vehicle Licence Issuing
Office, the Used Vehicle Information Package must be submitted with the
other vehicle documents to complete the transaction. Otherwise, the transfer
of registration will be refused. .
If a private seller doesn't offer the Used Vehicle Information Package, buyers
should ask to see the package before making any decision to buy the vehicle.
The Used Vehicle. Information Package can be purchased for $20,.00 from
any Driver and- Vehicle Licence, Issuing Office or from the Ministry of Consumer
and Commercial Relations 24 hours a day by using a credit card and calling
