Canada fitness survey Our family was one of the lucky ones chosen to take part in the Canada fitness survey, being held in Zurich until July. It is conducted by Jane Campbell of Komoka and John Minutillo, London. The tests r' )ne are a bit tiresome but fun and rewarding to oneself. The aim is to find out how many people are in shape, overweight and who do daily physical activities. Tests are done to achieve this information, such as: running up and down stairs to music, taking all sorts of measurements and checking body fat, blood pressure and heart rate. Had to do push-ups, sit-ups and tests for muscle strength and flexibility. All in all it takes about an hour for each one to go through the routine. They bring along the equipment necessary, and an eleven - page questionnaire must be completed by those taking part in the survey. A button saying "I participated" is given out afterwards. Vote today Be sure to go out and vote today (19th) ! The polls will be open from 8 a.m. till 7 p.m., at the community centre.
