Letter to the editor No protection for unborn Theatre sponsorship announced Generous donation Martin Clarke, a representative with Hanwell Contracting of RR 1, Thedford and Daymond Vinyl Products of London shakes hands with Kate Burnett, Business Manager at Huron Country Playhouse after announcing that Hanwell Contracting will donate the new vinyl siding to the theatre school. Hanwell Contracting of RR 1, Thedford and Daymond Vinyl Pro­ ducts of London have announced that they will be donating new vinyl siding to the Theatre School at the Huron Country Playhouse. Martin Clarke, a representative of Hanwell Contracting made the announce­ ment at the Playhouse on January 30. He said that his reason for the sponsorship was very simple. “This area has been very good to our business and this is our way of giving something back to the community.” Mr. Clarke said he was approached by Kate Burnett, Business Manager at Huron Coun­ try Playhouse, and asked if he had any old siding in any colour that he could donate for the portable classroom they had recently acquir­ ed for the Children’s Theatre School. He said that when he went to see the portable and noted the extensive rot in the existing wood siding, he saw an opportunity to help a really good cause by donating enough new siding to completely re-do the building.

Kate Burnett stated that she was hoping for enough siding to patch the very rotted spots on the exterior and was overwhelmed when the news came of this very generous gift to the Theatre School.

Parliament should now start afresh with a new law which fully assures the right to life of the most vulnerable of Canadians, the un­ born.
