Every area or department had a booth attractively displaying exhibits of the operation. For example, the laundry section showed pictures of a soiled garment and the cycle it goes through to the finish- ed product. Of equal interest and unportance were the other di::;alays and it is hoped everyone had a chance to view them all. Across the hall ui the sit- ting lounge, tables were set fur tea and coffee and delicious dessert trays.

Their pensions are fixed so that in times of rising inflation they have to contend with rising costs, and in addition the failing rate of exchange has further exacerbated the situation. However, in April of this year a group of pensioners in Toronto decided to take positive action, and a newly formed organization came into being - The British Pen- sioners Association (Canada) - which, it is hoped, will be able to bring pressure to bear to remedy the situation. Registered as a charitable, non-profit mak- ing group, non-party and non-political, it is hoped that this new venture will receive the support of the many who stand to benefit from its ac- tivities. An application has already been filed for affiliation to the National Federation of Old Age Pensioners Associa- tion (U.K. I, and there is every indication that it will be accepted. With the sup- port of 9.2 million O.A.Ps with voting rights, this pro- mises to be a strong lobby. The case of the pensioners abroad has already been put to the Minister concerned noting, "We are particularly concerned about the position in Canada. The Canadian government have already in- dicated their readiness to resolve the matter of reciprocity, but has only met with obstruction from suc- cessive British govern- ments." This statement reveals the concern that is felt. The new organization seeks resolutions and fair treatment for O.A.Ps in Canada, bearing in mind that those in the U.S.A. received fully indexed pen- sions. Many have con- tributed all their working lives to U.K. funds. Over the years many pen- sioners have written letters and made appeals for the matter to be re -considered. Now, in order to pursue their objectives, it is essential that those who are penalized by the unequal situation should give their wholehearted sup- port to the new venture specifically initiated to fur- ther their interests. In this way they will, through united and co-ordinated ef- fort, be in a position to direct their endeavours through those channels most able to attain democratic access to parliamentary attention to the injustice of a 'frozen pen- sion policy".

Day Centre reopens A year ago on June 23, was the re -opening ceremonies of the Huron Day Centre after renovations from the explo- sion. Time passes quickly when we meet together and share one's company and crafts. The Centre had films and slides and speakers during the year; monthly write-ups were sent to the paper. In June they had a travelogue of U.S.S.R., and bowling will finish at the end of June. Then summer activities such as swimming, picnics and short trips will be on the agenda. The Centre entertained volunteers and drivers, without whom the centre could not carry on to a barbecue and social evening on June 21. Tickets are available for sale on a quilt and hooked rug. The Monday group en- joyed a picnic at the Con- servation park and some clients intend to go to the Blyth Theatre to see "My Wild Irish Rose". Another trip is planned for July 4 to the Nuclear Energy Plant at Douglas Point. -by Vera Thiel.
