In 1992; -,there were 239 deaths and 22,652 injuries to children from birth to 14 years of age as a result of motor vehicle crashes. -Most deaths could have been avoided; or the severity of the injuries lessened, if seatbelts, and more specifically child' restraints, were used propetly.,in passenger vehicles. , In• 1993, the `percentage - of car drivers wearing shoulder belts reach -an all-time high of 88 per cent across Canada, with four provinces achieving. over 90 ; per cent - compliance.... Oddly enough, al -- though the compliance rates across Canada for child restraints is over 80 percent, only 50 per cent of that is correct usage. An improperly used child safety seat is only partially effective. It is vitally important for parents to read and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions for any rear - facing infant seat, combination seat '(rearward and/or forward facing) and booster seats. 16 is also neces- sary to 'be sure that children fit properly into the seat which is being used. The Canada Safety Council has made available thousands of cam- paign kits 'across Canada. These give valuable information regarding how to 'ensure your children. are safe when travelling in passenger vehicles.

However, if you were a female serving in the 'military during any war, you would immediately know what it stands for. The WRCNS, as they were known, were the women who were in the Women's Division of the Royal Canadian Navy; the WACS were the division of the. Canadian Army, and WDs were the women of the division of the Air Force. These persons served mostly in Canada. Firstly, they were women. and secondly were supposedly there to replace their male counterparts. Who could go `overseas'? The majority of women were office workers, cooks, dental assistants, signallers, drivers and nurses.
