ecological resource of regional
benefit as well as being of his-
torical, cultural and economic
significance to the people" of
Canada and the United States.
"Ontario is very much aware
of its responsibility to provide
effective management of the
Great Lakes water resource and
to protect and regulate develop-
ment of the coastal lands and
waters of the lakes," Mr. Davis
said.
"We in Ontario are pleased
to join with our neighbors in the
eight Great Lakes states in a pro-

on-cern," he added.
The Great Lakes Awareness
Month program was developed
by the Great Lakes Basin Com-
mission, a regional organization
representing eight states and the
U.S. federal government. Canada
participated in the program plan-
ning through representatives of
Environment Canada and the
Ontario Ministry of Natural
Resources.
"Only recently, my Ministry in
co-operation with Environment
Canada completed a detailed.
study of shore erosion and flood
damage on the Lower Great
Lakes and produced a technical
report and atlas which will be
of assistance in planning future
Lakeshore uses," Natural Resour-
ces Minister Leo Bernier said.
As part of the Great Lakes
Awareness Month program, a
public involvement workshop will
be held in Buffalo, N.Y., on
September 30 during which citi-
zen delegates from the eight
Great Lakes states and Ontario
will discuss ways of encouraging
an increased public interest and
concern for problems facing the
lakes.
Premier Davis said one of
Ontario's main concerns is devel-
opment on lands subject to
erosion and flooding.
"Our aim is to encourage
municipalities bordering on the
Great Lakes to become aware
of the risks involved in permit-
ting development along erosion
and flood prone shores and to
take action to inhibit develop-
ment through sound land use
planning," Mr. Davis said.
"At the same time, we want
to make clear to present owners
of shoreline properties in high
risk areas that they may suffer
from natural processes over
which governments have little
or no control," he added.
Mr. Bernier said that his

No one really starts to think
about Ontario rutabaga until the
frosty days of autumn appear.
"Yet this hearty root vegetable
is so delicious at this time of
year when it is fresh," say food
specialists at the Ontario Food
Council, Ministry of Agriculture
and Food.
Perfectly mild and tender, the
rutabaga is often avoided until
later months because of the
belief that it lacks its distinctive
flavor until after the first frost.
Nothing could be more untrue.
The popular Laurentian variety
grown in Ontario is delicious •
eaten raw as a snack but is es-
pecially nice cooked tender crisp
and seasoned with nothing more
than butter, salt and pepper, and
perhaps a touch of brown sugar.
To prepare a rutabaga for
eating fresh or for cooking, cut
the ends off, first to form a solid
base. Then remove the peel by
slicing from top to bottom all the
way around. Once peeled, cut the
rutabaga into rounds, sticks, or
cubes, and cook cording to
