ONTARIO I)I:P.\RT.MFNT OF TRADE AND DEVELOPMENT Questions concerning the abuse of drugs are among those most frequently asked at conferences held by the Women's Advisory Committee throughout the prov- ince. The concern of parents, teach- ers, youth leaders, social work- ers and others is readily under- stood. In one generation, what formerly had been considered a tragedy which could only happen to someone else, now is virtually on the doorstep of every family. Indeed, between 10 and 40 per cent of the young people in Can- ada are said to have had some experience with drugs. Looked at another way, the vast majority of youngsters are at some time going to have to decide whether or not to try mood and behaviour - altering drugs. Undoubtedly, the best method of dealing with the abuse of drug: is preventive education and good communication in the family. For most parents, it means gain- ing a new understanding of chem- istry and familiarization with a whole new vocabulary. For youn€ sters, it means knowing in adv- ance exactly what they are doing should they be tempted to exper- iment with drugs. Fortunately, help and guidance is readily available. A comm- endable job is being done by the Council on Drug Abuse (CODA) a non-profit association of con- cerned Canadians. Started in Toronto a year ago by individu- als in the pharmaceutical indust- ry, it is rapidly growing in num- bers to include people from man) organizations and walks of life. CODA's four-part education program includes: disseminating free drug information to the New Road Maps The Department of Highways official road map for 1971 shows an area of the Province's north- land extending 210 miles farther north than any previous map is- sued by the department. Included within this area is the Polar Bear Provincial Park-- Ontario's larg- est Provincial Park --covering 9, 300 square miles, located on the west shore of James Bay and Hudson Bay. On the Southern Ontario side the regional municipality of York and the new district of Muskoka are outlined. One of the panel maps shows Burlington, Oakville and Mississauga, the last named for the first time. On the North American key map time zone clocks have been inserted and the Trans -Canada Highway route is shown. Copies may be obtained, free of charge, from the Ontario Government Bookstore, 880 Bay Street, Toronto; the Map Office, Documents Section, Depart- ment of Highways, Downsview; all Department of Highways of- fices throughout the province; the Department of Tourism and Information, 185 Bloor Street East, Toronto 5, Ontario; Ontario Government Tourist Reception Centres at Border cros- sing points, and Service Centres on Highways 400 and 401 (the Maddonald-Cartier Freeway). public through Ontario's pharm- acies; sponsoring student disc- ussions and seminars on drug abuse at many Canadian univer- sities; a pilot curriculum project which will shortly be tested in selected Toronto elementary schools at grade 6, 7 and 8 level; and the planning of film prog- rams aimed at youth. CODA pamphlets deal with the five different types of drugs -- narcotics, sedatives, tranquil- izers, stimulants and hallucin- ogens. They give a description of each, how they are used, the symptoms of abuse, potential dangers, and the treatment of addicts. If you are unable to obtain copies of these pamphlets at your pharmacy, write to: Council on Drug Abuse, 20 Eglinton Avenue East, Toronto. Another worthwhile pub' icat- lion is the Handbook for Parents 'about Drugs, produced by the Addiction Research Foundation lof Ontario, As well as giving a run down on the uses and abuses of various drugs, it advises on what to do if the problem hits your family or community, where help can be obtained and the role of the doctor. To obtain your free copy of this booklet, write to: Addiction Research Foundat- ion of Ontario, 344 Bloor Street West, Toronto 179. Both organizations I have mentioned are at your service. They will give encouragement and advice should you wish to launch programs of drug educat- ion in your community --perhaps in the schools, to youth groups, parent -teacher associations or other organizations. Education is undoubtedly an PAGE SEVIE important key in coping with the problem of drug abuse. As feder- al Health Minister John Munro explained it: "Parents must have sufficient general knowledge of drugs which pose a real potential threat to their community and their children so that they can discuss the problem of drug dep- endancy factually and knowledge• ably to their children.
