peals for funds in'the near future.
The Honorable Charles Caccia, Minister
of the Enviromrient, in a recent speech
noted; "Habitat destruction is the single
most important factor affecting many of our
• CanadiaiewildlifeepopullatienC4Thelossai
- habitat, particularly wetlands, has reaChed
serious proportions throughout the
developed areas of Canada. There is now an
urgent need for a concerted effort by both
the public and private sectors to conserve
land as wildlife habitat. Wetlands are not
the wastelands that so many people think
they are."
The foundation, to be incorporated as a
federally chartered non-profit corporation,
will undertake a national program to en-
courage government agencies, non-
governmental organizations and the private
-sector to join in the protection and wise use
of wildlife habitat.
Wildlife Habitat Canada has been approv-
ed by the federal cabinet. Its ongoing pro-
grams will ' be funded in part through
revenues from the annual sales of
Migratory Game Bird Hunting Permits.
Cost of these permits will therefore increase
from the present $3.50 to $7.50 in 1985. Sport-
smen's organizations across the country,
recognizing the precarious situation of
wetlandS, support a permit fee increase as
this revenue will be directed into habitat
conservation programs.
"An initial one million dollar contribution
by the federal government will allow a rapid
start-up of the Foundation," said Mr. Cac-
cia. "We are convinced that the future
depends on innovative and cooperative pro-
grams with: :interested prani?...atiOns in-
----
cluding those in the private sector.
Mr. Caccia encouraged individuals and
corporations to assist the foundation in at-
taining its objectives by making :tax-

'A recent cooperative survey called "The
Importance of Wildlife to Canadians' show-
ed that 84 per cent or 15.5 million adult
Canadians spent more than $4.2 billion on
wildlife related activities in this • country
during 1981. Clearly, this illustrates the
• value we place on this important and unique
resource and of the substantial impact it has

translate into serious reductions in many
wildlife populations. the news, however, is
not all had, There are many examples of
successful, efforts, by Canadians to protect
valuable wildlife land,!'
You're. righr, Mr, Caccia! Ducks
unlimited has been doing that for 47 years.

negotiations with_governments and private
landowners brought 47;062 ha of wetland
under reservation for future development.
Banie-based Provincial Manager John
Bain reported that in Ontario 49 new pro-
jects , involving 1,960 new hectares are
scheduled for construction in 1984.
Highlighting the prOvinClaptogtakt. will be
the 1,400 -ha Big Creek Complex, a critical
Lake. Erie waterfowl producing and staging
area which, at present, is operating far
below potential.
In the DU annual report, it shows that out
of every dollar, 81 cents goes back into
habitat development programs. Operations
and maintenance of existing projects take 10
cents which leaves only nine cents for con-
ducting Waterfowl Surveys, planning and
control, and public relations and contributor
services.
In my opinion, that's an efficient and ac-
curate use of donated funds, and if Wildlife
Habitat Canada can match it, so much the
better. I have my doubts, however, since the
government is involved.
Mr. Caccia stated that "Therefore, while
federal funds will start the foundation, we
intend that it be self-sustaining in the long
term: I believe it is particularly interesting
that hunters, for the first time, will know
that their fees are going directly to the .con-
servation of migratory bird populations."
It's about time! If . this is the. first, I
Wonder where all those licence fees, am-
munition taxes, etc. that have been col-
lected for years have been going.We've
known for years that "Hunters Pay For Con-
servation" through private organizations

•Peewee A's tied in playoff series
Last weekend the Peewee A's opened
their best of three O.M.H.A. quarterfinal
• series with Kingsville.. -
In Clinton on Saturday night before a good
hometown crowd, the locals suffered a
. heartbreaking defeat, losing 6-3. Heart-
breaking, in that Kingsville scored withjust
14 seconds remaining in regulation time to
force a 10 min. overtime and went on to
score three unanswered goals in that frame.

before, the second period ended to deadlock
it at two.
Jefferson scored • with just over five
minutes remaining to give Clinton. a one
goal margin again. Curtis MCCone and
• Brown picked up assists on the play.
It looked 'like Clinton was going to steal
this game but Shawn Renaud spoiled
everything with his last minute tally..
When the final buzzer sounded the A's
must have thought it was overas they quit
skating and checking . in the overtime as
Kingsville ran away with it.,
• On Sunday, Clinton travelled to Kingsville
for game two. With their backs to the. wall,
the boys came up with a gritty effort.
• After a penalty -filled first period the A's
led 2-1 on goals by Curtis McCone and Devon
Colquhoun. Derek Jefferson and Scott
Brown drew assists on the first goal.
In the second period scorers were Col-
quhoun from Mike Corrie and Norris Flynn,
Jefferson from Brown and Jefferson from
McCone and Brown.

In the third, Kingsville's Renaud, who
scored all their goals, scored two quick ones
to narrow the gap to 5-4. The A's were not to
be denied 'as Colquhoun Unleished a hard
drive and McCone added his second of the
game as Clinton skated off with the 7-4 vic-
tory.
The third game will be played in Clinton
this Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. A -large
crowd would be appreciated by the A's as
they endeavor to advance to the All -Ontario
semifiunals.
