evening.
There was lots of audience par
ticipation. The comics would pick
on certain members of the crowd
and certain members of the crowd
would in tum heckle the comics.
Yuk Yuk's material is hilarious
for a younger or open-minded
crowd; however, for the faint of
heart or for people who can't sit
through an Eddie Murphy movie,
the often profane language can be
offensive. The comedians tend to
deal with very personal subjects,
such as bodily functions or intimate
moments with a sexual partner.
Nothing is sacred. But the Blyth
audience dealt with everything with
good humour and enjoyed its
Also her written Pedagogy paper

scholarship into Wilfred Laurier

fall.
Valerie VanReisen, Clinton,

first part of grade 9 Piano and first
evening thoroughly.
Some of the more humourous
moments concerned putting down
our neighbours to the south.
Everything from how they refuse to
understand the metric system to
how they insist on spelling every
thing differently was subject to
ridicule. The audience seemed to
really appreciate these jokes.
Politicians, homosexuals, the
French, and sexual relations were
the butt end of most of the jokes,
not to mention small rural commu
nities.
Overall, the Blyth and District
Community Play committee mem
bers brought a great show to the

their own business opportunities

information kiosks have been
placed at central locations
throughout Huron County. Each
kiosk contains resource materials
designed to assist entrepreneurs in
starting up new business ventures.
Information on where to find
investment capital for new ventures

locations, including the Exeter
Municipal Office, the Huron
County Planning and Development
Office (Goderich) and the
Wingham Town Hall. The kiosks
will be circulated throughout
municipal offices in the county to
ensure that information is available
to all interested entrepreneurs.
The information kiosks are a
joint project of the South Huron,
Central Huron, North Huron and
West Huron Community
Development Committees in co
operation with the Ontario Ministry
of Industry, Trade and Technology.
Reader speaks out for Free Trade
Continued from page 7
Mexican farmers have only
enough land to produce 20 per cent
of their food needs. They must
import the other 80 per cent and
that need too will grow by the need
of 2 million new people a year.
There will, of course, be
disruptions here. The editorial
mentions the clothing industry, and
farm organizations mention
Mexican vegetables, but as long as
I can remember, and that is a long
time, the textile industry has
whined even more than the
agriculture industry. But it still
exists and some sectors are quite
prosperous, thank you. And if
North American content is
prescribed, go for it and produce
the needed stuff.
Another disturbing aspect of this
trend to self protection is the
seeming1 indifference to the plight
of the poor in other countries.
Those people are REAL poor,
unlike what we call our poor. Ours
are only poor in comparison to
other people in Canada. They are
poor in comparison to our poorest,
very poor. We cry when we see the
starving in Somalia and
Bangladesh and in the slums of
Bangkok of Mother Theresa. We
dig into our pocket and we
contribute to the Hunger
Foundation, to Foster Parents Plan
and other international help
organizations. But when we really
can help them by buying their
products that compete with ours we
howl that they provide unfair
competition with their low wages
and lax environmental laws. A
catch 22.
The Human Development Report
of the United Nations found that
Canada is the best place to live
compared with 160 other countries,
despite our 10.6 per cent
unemployment.
They also calculate that we can
easily put the poor countries on
their feet if the rest of the world
decreases defense (what a
euphemism) spending by three
percent and use that money to prop
up the economies of the third
world. That means also that we
must buy their product. But that
may initially cost jobs for our
people. Is it morally right to keep
Mexicans and other third world
countries in poverty so we can live
it up? Think about it.
There is only one way. Open the
world to free trade. The GATT has
shown us the way. The western
world has never been as prosperous
as now, since the first GATT was
signed in the late 1940s. Let's not
stop now. Any operation causes
some pain and discomfort and the
NAFTA will be no different. But
good health is bound to follow.
