The Citizen, 2004-08-12, Page 21required from the municipality.
Cornwall wants funding that will
help municipalities to pay staff to
co-ordinate the committee's
requirements under the act.
Further, Cornwall wants the
province to set "reasonable"
standards and guidelines that are
consistent throughout the province.
The city requested all municipalities
in the province to assist in lobbying
the province, and the Association of
Municipalities of Ontario.
North Huron also supported two
other resolutions seeking funding.
One, by the township of Severn,
requested provincial funding for
meeting the requirements of the
Emergency Management Act. The
other, by the town of Iroquois Falls,
requested the province make gas tax
revenue available to all Ontario
municipalities. At present, such
revenue would be available to
municipalities with public transit
systems. Iroquois Falls' resolution
stated all municipalities need
funding to help them cope with
deteriorating infrastructure and
downloaded services.

Challenge: No time to prepare a healthy meal
Solution: Planning and shopping ahead may seem like a time-consuming effort
initially but over the long run can help save time and money, reduce stress, and
improve nutrition intakes.
• Get organized — stock your cupboards, fridge and freezer with basics that will
help you pull together nutritious meals in a hurry. These include:
— Grain Products: whole grain bread, cereal, pitas and flour tortillas; pasta and
rice.
— Vegetables and Fruit: fresh vegetables and fruit in season as well as a variety
of canned and frozen vegetables and juices.
— Milk Products: milk, yogurt and cheese.
— Meat & Alternatives: meat, fish, poultry; eggs; canned fish; canned beans and
lentils; nuts and seeds; tofu and soy products, and peanut butter.
— Other foods: butter, soft margarine, vegetable oil (canola, safflower,
sunflower, corn, olive); sugar, honey, syrup; mustard, ketchup, salsa, vinegar,
soya sauce, and spices.
• Plan ahead — Choose three or four main dinner meals to have during the week
and make a list of items needed. Be sure to include something from each of the
four food groups in Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Eating. Buy all the
ingredients you need ahead of time to avoid unnecessary trips to the store. Post
the menu plan on the fridge so everyone knows what's for dinner. Leave out
simple instructions or the recipe so that whoever gets home first can start the
preparation or cooking.
• Make only one meal — No one has time to be a short order cook for different
family members at different times. Avoid cooking one meal for each person — no
matter what time they get home. Store leftovers safely in the refrigerator for
latecomers to heat up when they get home.
• Share the tasks — Younger children can set the table, older kids can help with
food preparation and everyone can help with the cleanup. Assign jobs to share the
load and so everyone knows what is expected of them.
• Make life interesting — Try a new recipe or new food every once in a while — ask
family members to find and suggest recipes that they would like to try. Remember
variety is the spice of life!
