Authority.
Road and general accounts in the
amounts of $131,978.73 and
$215,034.03 were approved for
payment.
Council renewed insurance for
the balance of 2000 with Jardine
OME for a cost of $5,224 plus
taxes.
Council supported a resolution
from the Town of Lakeshore
petitioning the federal and
provincial governments to take
immediate steps towards
formulating a plan to rectify the
current low water level problem in
the Great Lakes as well as a
petition seeking support for the
farming community.
More than 21 per cent of the
population aged 12 and over in the
Southwest Region are daily smokers.
About half of these people, or more
than 141,000 individuals, will likely
die of smoking-related illnesses.
“This is an alarming statistic,
made all the more tragic because
these deaths are entirely
preventable,” said Laura Wall of the
Canadian Cancer Society (CCS).
According to figures released by
CCS, the rates of tobacco use among
both men and women in the
Southwest Region, as well as the
lung cancer mortality rate among
men, exceed the overall provincial
rates. The Southwest Region
includes Kent, Lambton, Elgin,
Middlesex, Huron, Bruce, Grey,
Oxford, Perth, and Waterloo.
In response to this urgent health
priority, CCS has launched a
Smokers’ Helpline in Ontario
to provide information, advice
and support to those who want
to overcome their tobacco
dependency.
What’s unique about the Smokers’
Helpline is that it is designed to help
all smokers, even those who are not
now actively planning to quit. Why?
“Because those who have decided to
quit represent only about 15 per cent
of all smokers. We wanted to reach
the other 85 per cent as well,”
explains Louise Walker, provincial
co-ordinator of the Smokers’
Helpline.
Another unique feature of the
Smokers’ Helpline is that it
recognizes smokers have to decide
for themselves how and when they
want to quit. “We’re here to support
them, not to lecture or put pressure
on them. We recognize how difficult
it is to quit,” said Wall.
The toll-free support line - 1-877-
513-5333 - is open from 9 a.m. to 9
p.m. Monday to Thursday and on
Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (EDT).
The service is available in both
English and French.
Funded in part by the Ontario
Ministry of Health and Long-Term
Care, the $1-million initiative is the
first such support line to be
established province-wide. The
Smokers’ Helpline assists
individuals by providing materials,
referral to local smoking cessation
resources, and support from trained
advisors.
Walker says the results from a
pilot test have been extremely
encouraging, and she expects the
quit rate among callers to the
Smokers’ Helpline to be at least
double the five to eight per cent
typical of other self-help programs.
For all of Ontario, it is estimated
that there are about 1.9 million
people who smoke daily, and
approximately 2.4 million ex
smokers in the province. More than
750,000 people made at least one
quit attempt in the past year, and
some 186,000 of these individuals
were successful.
“We’re launching the Smokers’
Helpline to help improve the odds,”
said Wall.
