Introduced by Marilyn Wood, speech pathologist Jane Tolton joined the staff of Wingham and District Hospital in May of 1993. Ms Tolton has a case load consisting mostly of preschool children. Referrals are made through a doctor and patients are placed on a waiting list. Parents also sit in on sessions with their child which are an hour long and on a one-to-one basis. The parent can then help their child at home.

The funding, which will be supported by $83,123 local funds, will be used to construct an addi- tion to St. Columban elementary school, including three classrooms, change rooms, and a general purpose room. Work, scheduled to begin in January and be completed by August, will create an estimated 238 person-weeks of employment. "In addition to providing immediate jobs'for the community, this infrastructure project represents a good investment in the long-term future of the younger generation because it creates a. good learning and recreational environment," said Mr. Stickle. "The province is pleased to be working with its federal and local partners to create local employ- ment," said Ms Haslam. "The development of sport and recrea- tion facilities will enhance the quality of life for our students and contribute to the development of their lifelong interests." "The board is very happy with the funding it has received from the Canada/Ontario Infrastructure Works program," said Ms Martin. "It will allow us to upgrade the facilities at St. Columban by adding a gym, change rooms and classrooms, and will provide a location for use by the community for recreational and social purposes as well." Canada/Ontario Infrastructure Works is a $2.1 billion shared-cost program designed to create jobs through local priority projects which will improve the province's infrastructure and therefore its competitive position. Canada, Ontario and local partners are each contributing one-third of the project funding. The program, which is expected to create up to 37,000 direct and indirect jobs, is a positive example of the federal, provincial and local levels of government working co- operatively to foster economic development and growth. 11311A 0 lEthceictIlxey. • GOODS • SERVICES • TRADES
