iood money:
If you read the daily papers or follow news on the radio or television on
a regular basis there is no way you can avoidthe sickness that is evident
in our society. And it is spreading in the most unusual fashion and in the
most peculiar ways.
The case of convicted murderer Clifford Olson in B.C. is a prime
example of just how sick our society has become. While Olson is a case in
himself, the parents involved are also running into danger of falling into
the sam. e sick category.
The RCMP paid Olson .$90,000'for information leading to the recovery.
of the bodies of the children Olson had murdered.
It has been disclosed in several reports that without the information
from Olson himself the bodies would never have been ,found. The.
families were spared any more heartache, no matter what the cost. And
the kcost was $90,000.
But there are a few more points to consider there"other than the phrase
"blood`( money" that has been bandiekl about : by the media.
If the case had continued further there would have been millions of
dollars more spent in tryingto pin the murders and recover the bodies.
Time would have stretched to eternity for the families awaiting news
on whether theirr children were dead or alive and if dead where the bodies
were:
The problem arises now with the public opinion of paying Olson for,the
information. Some: of the families have made plans tb'sue `the Olson.
family for their share of the money. But what good would that do? At best
they wouid_profit by_$5,000or $6,000wat the most after division and legal
fees. And what price do they pay emotionally for dredging, the case
through the courts over the next two, or three years?
The calls of "blood money" would not change and in the end they
would be foreverhaunted by the matter made even more sour by. their
scrapping_ over' dollars that will never alleviate_their sorrow or bring their
children back
The matter of the money paid to Olson is no different, than terrorists
who bargainwith their lives for the lives of other terrorists more wanted
than they. Or- the gangster who puts plea- bargaining on the line and
turns in several `other murderers while, he goes, free on his charges of
murder:
While the issue:of paying for information is questionable each case is
uniqueand the 'advantages, `in .this on. e. appear `to' far outweigh the
disadvantages. "`
Winter has to be the season when all us learn how far our patience can
be . stretched.
Patienceis waiting that extra 30 seconds before.pulling onto a slippery
or snow -packed highway in front of another' vehicle.
Patience is waiting that' extra, two minutes for the 'car' to warm up
before 'roaring\down the drive.
Patience is waitingfor a man to come and snowblow out your drive. In
case you hadn't noticed the snow fell and blew everywhere, and you are--
- not alone in your wait. It takes time to clean and blow out drives and
walks.
Patience is reconsidering passing aslower vehicle on the highway
when the snow is billowing around. The chance you take may be your
last.
Patience .is taking a few extra seconds to find that pair of gloves and
scarf to wearQ,1 A cold could mean Toss of ,valuable job time and pay.
And patience is remembering that winter will not last forever and that,
yes, spring comes every year right after the last icy blasts have left our
fair land.

Re: Further Comments Requested in Your

The main problems in the farming business
today, are inflation and high interest rates.
Government dabbling in the "Rob Peter to
pay Paul" business, eg.-Govt. loans and,
grants to Massey -Ferguson and the Chrysler
Corporation, etc., etc., and the conferring of
special privileges to special groups eg.. -"the
right to strike by public; employees, supply
management and price fixing powers to
certain farm groups, ; etc., etc,, in the
short run look attractive, but in the long pull
are disastrous.
You are currently seeking approx. sixty
million ($60,000,000.00) from Canadian tax:
payers, to finance "Can -Agree', a Govt.

I would strongly support, an export sales
thrust, but at the same time, you are
advocating supply, management, with it's
accompanying tariffs' and trade barriers.
I have a question for you -How many export
dollar sales have been earned by products
produced under supply management pro-
grams, when the same price was charged for
export as was paid by. our Canadian
consumer?
May I suggest,' that you and ' your
government cohorts, concentrate your efforts
on balancing the national budget, and
provide the most humane services possible
within thatcontent, and leave beef farmers,
and Canadian citizens generally to get on
with the same job in their chosen enterprises.

news and frankly, it'sbeen a relief to see it
there.
Seems today most of the time . on our
newscasts is spent trying to pin the blame
forthis or that problem in our lives. But so
far nobody's tried to blame Pierre Trudeau
for the blizzards, say the record tempera-
tures are a plot by the Russians to
undermine democracy, or claim the greed of
the bankers is behind the huge piles of •
;snow. 'Not yet anyway.

Ronald Regan has not been happy with
Canada over our government's attempt to
buy back some of . our industry and has
threatened retaliation. Perhaps there's
more behind it .though.
I -mean we -Canadians are "always being.
blamed for the latest dose of rotten weather
that freezes the oranges or nips the noses of
Washington senators. Perhaps' our am-
bassador
needs to point out some facts of
geography to Americans to make them not
dislike us so much. You see, they always talk.
about cold air coming down from Canada
but if you look at a map, it's not our. fault:
To be sure the cold weather` comes from
the Arctic but weather patterns also come
from the west. Now themost westerly part
of the Arctic happens to be Alaska.,
Therefore, the rotten weather Canada is
passing on to the southern U.S, came from
the U.S, in the first place.
Maybe we should retaliate.
No one would caII 1981 a good year for
Ontario farmers. Increased : capital and
operating costs, coupled with ' crippling
interest rates, madeit one of the worst years.
farmers have had to undergo in decades.
But as bad as it was, there have been worse
years: And farmers, fortunately, tend to take
the long view of life.' Farmers are familiar
with the various seasons of life: not just
•
seasons for. ` planting and . seasons for
harvesting, but the seasons of plenty and the
'seasons of need.
We in the Ministry of Agriculture and Food
are also familiar with seasons and cycles. We.:..:.
too` take thelong view of life.
That is why we have launched a year-long,
$60 million assistance program for 1982 to
help qualified fanners who need. refinancing,
"bridging" . or adjustment financing
Although this could be called a short-term
program, its aiin is long-term: to ensure that,
.those producers who receive this aid will be
running full-time, fully productive, viable
operations in the future.
This,however, is just our most recent
program.
There were also many programs launched .
last year.
For example, 1981 was a very bad year for
beef. producers. That is why we introduced
the $30 million Slaughter Cattle Assistance
Program, the recently expanded $9 million
Stocker Cattle Assistance Program, and the
$20 million Cow -Calf Program to help protect
our important beef -breeding industry. '
In addition, the sow-weaner stabilization
plan was triggered by low prices and paid out
$7 million to producers.
History has taught us how, dangerous it is
to reply on other countries for the necessities
of life. The oil crisis instigated' by the OPEC
nations is just the most recent example.
We cannot afford to be as reliant on others
for food as we were on the OPEC nations for
oil.
Many of our programs are designed to help
Ontario become more self-sufficient in trpnic
of food supplies. They are investments in the '
future.
This should be a°national goal.
There are ' also numerous agricultural
programs under'.BILD The Board" of
Industrial Leadership and Development:' the
$20 milliqn capital assistance for '..,food
processing program; $1:5 million for aspar-
agus production, $1.5 million for the cream
assistance program ; $2 " million for the
expansion of the' Farmers' Market "' at the
Ontario Food Terminal; $1:75 million,. for the,
equipment fund for agricultural collegesand
the $15 million whey incentive program:
And there have been some successes 'in
1981: "This has"' been'" a "record': year rfor
exporting rting corn from our record '200 million
bushel harvest, a harvest with a farm' gate
value of more than half a billio dollars. Our
numerous trade missions to other countries
have increased Ontario's share of the ,world
food market, : and our Foodland Ontario
Program has increased our share of the
market here at home.:
It is worth nothing that the Foodland
Ontario Program is playing an ` especially
important : role in making Ontario more;
self-sufficient by replacing more and more
imported foods with Ontario -grown foods.
But what will 1982. be like? Right now it's
not easy to predict: The economists and other
"experts" don't offer much hope. But there.
is one ray of sunshine. They predict that the
interest rates will come down. .
Like most farmers 1 am an optimist: All of
us believe in. Canada as a nation. We have
experienced tough years before. Co-opera-
tion between governments, industry, farmers
and consumers have turned the wheel to
better times in the past and will again. 1 look
forward' to 1982 with a cautious degree in
optimism.
Respectfully,
The Honourable Lorne C. Henderson
Minister of
Agriculture and Food

b y� Bill Smiley
Don't you get a little tired of the
touchiness of, modern .society in which, no
matter where you step, it's on 'somebody's
toes, no matter what you say or write, it's a
slur on someone's background, color, creed:.
or conviction's?
About the only areas left i, which one may
chance a remark without fear of inflicting a
wound are politics and sex.
It's extremely ` difficult to inflict even a
bruise on a politician. He must have a fat ego
in the first place, and he quickly acquires a
brass hide to go with it. Add an ability to talk
out of both,sides of the mouth at once, and a
certain skill in straddling fences, and you
have cabinet material.
In the field of sex, there don't seem to be
any limits any more to what can be said,
presented or simulated Movies, magazines
and theatres; club us over the head withraw,
unembellished sex, or seek to titillate the
spook -in -each of -us -with -highly -embellished,;
freaky sex until the whole once -exciting
subject has become a crashing bore.
Aside from sex and politics then,there is
scarcely an aspect of the human scene where
even angels fear to tread, lest: they step on
someone's sensibilities
Ethnic, jokes are out, black is beautiful,
gefillte fish is glorious, 'Rhodesia is rotten,
poor people are more noble than rich people,
gay is gorgeous, and the only real sin is to be
old. •
Lord forbid that we should•ever go back to
the days when a Catholic was a "mick" or a
"dogan," a blpck person was a "nigger," an
Italian was a "wop," and Chinese was a
"chink,"and so on. •
But I do get heartily sick of a society in
which you have to tippy -toe all the time for
fear of offending some touchy minority, or
trespassing, inadvertently on someone's
weird religious affiliations._
We are developinginto a society with a
snobbish sort of reverse prejudicein which
everybody is leaning over backwards in order
to appear not even to be breathing on anyone
else.
As a result, we are losing much of that good
old .,Canadian : crustiness and turning into a
nation of nice nellies in whose mouths
margarine wouldn't: melt
Even our media reflect this trend in our
society. With few exceptions, our news
-papers- are _is.. bland_.as: blanc_: mange:_. The
letters to the editor have more bit,; and are
often better written, than the editorials:;
Our magazines ate either ; tiresomely
•
•
"liberal" or narrowly nationalistic, or both.
Tied in tight bundles, they make better
firewood than they do reading matter.
Television and radio news' reporting, most
of it culled;. from the late editions of
newspapers, is incredibly unimaginative and
repetitious: TV programs, on the whole, are
pure pap, offensive by being so inoffensive.
Public figures • are so •frightened of
offending .somebody or losing a few votes,
that their public utterances come out as mush
wrapped in marshmallow. • •
What this country, and this society, need is
a good dash of cold water from somewhere,
to wake us from our mind -numbing, paralyz-
ing, "niceness:"
We need a Bob Edwards or a Grattan
O'Leary to ` jolt us with, some honest
vituperation, ,som colorful namecalling,
some hard facts, and some common sense:
We need some politicians with guts, who
-don't-give-a-diddle-for -the -popularity-polls
and who would give us the facts of life without
any sugar 'coating.
We need some educators with backbone to
tell the people who claim that Huckleberry.
Finn is racist and The Merchant of Venice is
anti-semitic and Catch-22 is dirty 'and The
Diviners is disgusting, to go fly a kite.
We need about 10,000 fewer smart -ass
commentators on what is ` wrong with this
country, and a few hundred honest men or
women to tell us what is right with it..

If you are concerned about
controlling your weight you
might wonder if you can eatiin
fast food restaurants and stay..
trim. Here are some thoughts
to consider. • .
Did you know that a meal of
a cheeseburger, an order of
french fries and a chocolate ,
shake provides nearly 1000
calories, half of these from fat
and sugar? This • selection
supplies '/� of the average
woman's daily energy needs,
but only I/4 to'h;of her major
nutrient needs. Changing
this order to a burger, cole
slaw: and milk. wouldreduce
the calories to about 600: and
increase -the -supply -of nutr-i-
ents
But, can you resist the
temptation to order the high
calorie items? How often do
you intend to have a burger
and glans of .milk and end up
ordering a burger, french
fries and ashake?
If this is typical of you, your
best alternative is :to elimi-
nate the temptation by avoid-
ing the fast food restaurants
which don't offer lower calor-
ie choices. Seek out restaur-
ants which have skim milk,
salad bars, fresh . fruit and
fruit juices. You will eat fewer.
calories, feel less guilt and.
enjoy your meal immensely.
FAST FOOD SURVIVAL
In summary there are a few
things to remember if you do
want to eat .fast and well.
--1,-Be.choosey when_selecting
your fast food outlet.
2. Then, choose wisely from
what's .available.
3. Take along fresh fruits and
vegetables from home or the
corner store tosupplement
your order,
4, Ask for foods you would
like on the menu such as skim
milk, fresh fruit, . salads,
juices, etc. Take action:.. see
the manager, write the com
panypresident. Repeated re-
quests should get results,
After all, restaurants are
there to serve you...aren't
they?
5. Include missing food
groups in your other meals
and snacks. Remember, it's
what you eat during the whole
day that counts.

Huron County Board, of Education
approved establishing Identification, Place-
ment and, Review Committees '(IPRC), for
each school in its jurisdiction.
As part of the implementation of Bill 82
(special education amendments to the
Education. Act), the committees are set up to
identify, place and review at least annually
exceptional children.
IPRCs will include, the principal of the
school, the teacher in which the student is
registered, the teacher who is or nnay be
providing assistance to the student, and a
representative of administration, who may be
the area resource teacher, co-ordinator of
student services or the superintendent of
education involved with . special education,
Parents of the student involved are invited to
the committee. meeting;
Director of education John Cochrane,
reminded the board special education is a
"high priority" item and "will be highly
visible for the next few meetings." (Boards of
education across the province must submit to
the Ministry of Education by May 1, their
plans to implement special education in their
systems.)
As a prelude to this, Roger Miller, an
education officer with the regional office Of
the ;Ministry of Education showed a video
tape and answered trustees questions at the.
January meeting.
Trustee Bert Morin expressed concern re
funding " of extracosts attached to the
implementation of Bill 82. He said he is, aware
of funding as it has been announced to date,
that is the province has committed itself until
1985, but what happens after that, Mr. Miller
was only aware of the committment until
1985.,....
Trustee Dennis Rau asked what happens if
a child has to be sent to another agency and
the parents don't want the child to go. Mr.
Miller said the.IPRC makes a recommenda-
tion of placement . to the board, i,e. the
W.Ross Mcdonald School for the deaf, and
the board makes a decision. If the parents do
not agree with the decision, it goes to an
appeal board at thelocal level, and if the
answer still does not satisfy the parents, it
goes to a tribunal, which if that does not
satisfy the parents, the Minister of Education
has the final say.
One trustee asked how many more
teachers would Huron County require and,
this question was answered by superinten
dent of education Don Kenwell. He agreed
•
•
Huron County has a pretty good base, butan
increase • in services is necessary " at the
secondary, level and for the gifted ,child.
Mr. Miller said Huron County is fortunate
because"a lot of special education programs
are already available; Currently the needs
assessment committeeis processing data on
the needs and numbers of exceptional
children in Huron County: .
After a' nine-month trial period, Huron
County Board of Education will return to
holding its . monthly meeting on . the first
Monday of the month;
As of May 7;:1981, meetings were held on
the. first Thursday of the month to accomo-
date the weekly press with its Tuesday
deadline.' Allowing the press representative
an opportunity to voice its opinion in favor of
the Thursday meetings, the board's position
was to favor the Monday meeting to eliminate
a supplementary agenda.
Trustee Murray Mulvey asked if meeting
7 were -held -on -a -Monday-if-it-would-do -away--
with the supplementary agenda and there-
fore, be less bookkeeping for administration.
Mr. Cochrane, s id he ,hoped it would..
Presently agendas are mailed out the
Thursday or Friday prior to a board meeting,
and would remain that way with Monday.
meetings.
Mr. Cochrane said in the week
between mailing agendas and the meeting'
date, letters were receivedor meetings held
which necessitated a supplementary agenda.
In otherbusiness, the board;
Approved offering a summer school at
Central Huron Secondary School, Clinton in

tion and Communications Minister James

minister cited "excellent visibility", and the
use of red flashing lights on school buses as

:of -a -school -bus. -.

OTTAWA -The new
chairman of the Ontario Press
Council 'and his predecessor.
has called on all English-
language daily newspapers in
Ontarioto make themselves.
accountable to the public by
participating in the Council
Both J. Allyn Taylor; the
new chairman, and Davidson
Dunton noted that only 10.
(23.8 per`, cent) of the pro-
vinces 42 : English-language_
dailies : participate in ` :the
„Council, < just two more than
the eight that founded .'the
organization in 1972: ; How
ever, theyemphasized that
the percentage of participat-
-------ing--newspaPers -- does.-- not
reflect the true importance of.
the Council as an instrument
available to the public to
complain about the conduct of
the press since the 10 daily
• member newspapers ; have
55:3 per cent of the daily
English-language circulation
in the province.:
"Our emphasis on English-
language., dailies does
nglishlanguage .::dailies. -:.does _ not
mean neglect of daily news
papers , published in other
languages or in weekly news-
papers published" in any
language," said a statement
by the two men.
"More than once since the
Council began, it has invited
Ottawa Le- Droit, the pro-
vince's only French -language '
daily, to ;'participate in the
Ontario Council on behalf of
those readers living in . this
province. Le Droit already
participates in the :: Quebec
Press Council on behalf of its
Quebec readership through
its . membership in Les
Quotidiens of Quebec, an
association of French -lang-
uage dailies.:
`Only 14 of Ontario's 282
weekly, or community, news-
papers have joined. the Coun-
cil. A warm welcome awaits
- :any others who - wish to
y participate:
"Signs abound that the
public and' governments
share a growing mistrust of
all .forms of media. The Kent
Royal Commission on News-
-- papers- of .1980 -,,81 --and the
Special Senate Committee on
the , Mass Media in 1969=70.
arose in large part from that
feeling.
'Significantly, ' ' each.
inquiry in its findings per-
ceived a growing ` credibility,
gap between the media` and
their audiences, a gap they
said press councils could help
to close.''
The two men stressed the
spirit of. independence that
pervades the Ontario Council
which hag 21 members, 10
' from the public and :10 from_...
member newspapers, under
an independent chairman.
"The Council's adjudiea-
• tions stand up well and',
represent a sound body of
• precedent on the ethical con
duct of newspapers. Many

complaints that come to the
Council are far from earth-
' shaking. But : they are all
matters of enormous concern
to the' individuals or groups
involved."
Mr. Taylor reiterated re-
marks he made in October
after his appointment, saying
that he is still surprised and
disappointed in the narrow
newspaper participation m
the Council
I said then, and I repeat
now, that ,every' daily and
every weekly newspaper in
Ontario ought to . participate
voluntarily in. the. Council
because ` it is a valid instru-
ment for
nstru-ment,.:for : monitoring :: press
behavior. The ,public needs
an independent body like the
Council to monitor the press,
just as it needs the press to
monitor society
"Moreover, the Council
has another role of particular,
importance' at this time—de-
fending
imede-fending the public interest in
the freedom of public ex-
pression, including the'. freed
dom of the press.
"This issue concerns news

cause it ::involves :_the _...tradr
`. tional right, shared; equally
by individual people and
media,' to comment freely on
•blic matters. Full support
: ' )ill Ontario dailies ' would
g.eatly strengthen the Coun-
cil's efforts to discharge: this
responsibility successfully."
For his part, Mr. ' Dunton,
chairman from the Council's
inception in mid -1972 until
'• I
last Dec. 31, summed up the
organization's first nine years
by saying that "we have
contributed a great deal to
society, and to a truly free and
responsible press."
Mr. Taylor noted that 1982
not only brings the Council a
new chairman, but a com-
plete change from the origi-
nal 1972 membership..Along

over 400,000: snowflakes.
Each one had six sides, each
of which was the same, but
the design within the sides
was different for each snow=

the snowflake and found the

One of the astounding mira-
cles of God's creation.
Another miracle ` is our-
selves. It is said that, every
human being is different.a
That means there is some-
thing distinctive : about, each
one of us. God took a special
interest in each of uswhen he
made 'us. His interest in us
has continued throughout our
life. His desire for us is that
we should know him, love him
and enjoy him forever.
The snowflake `lasts for
only a very short time. We are
made to live forever.. If God is
sufficiently interested in the
snowflake to make each one
different, how much more he
must be interested, `in each
one of us: His concern for us
is so great : that the Gospel
declares. "God so loved the
world 'that he gave his only
Son, that whoever believes in
him should' not perish but
Business eternal life." (John

create havoc with the animals. Problems can
arise from stress and lead to pneumonia.
Dr. Schilthuis has been working on getting.
a ,few of his clients onto a herd health
program. The first step is to look at the
production records and set goals for the farm.
Goals that can be met and that are not too
unrealistic. -
Where a lot of a farmers fall down, he says,
is in the department of record keeping.....
Usually last on a long list of things that a
farmerhas to do, the records inevitably come
up not being done. With records a farmer is
able to show where there is improvement and
where more improvement is indicated.
• The majority of clients want their problem
rectified and call in a vet, pointed out Dr.
Schilthuis but, vets should be spending more
time with their clients and helping them set
their goals. ,
"The ultimate question is the cost factor"
remarked Dr. Schilthuis: •"But herd health
should promote itself with fewer vet bills and
increased production."
The group shot qu stions at the veterinari-
an for close to an hourJjrguingthat increased
production through me icated feeds and the
like was against the stewardship of the land
that they as a group promote. The doctor
countered that planning for the health of the
herd while benefiting from a productive
animal did not counteract what the group
strives for.'
The key topic of the questions was the
presence of antibiotics and medicated feed.
Members voiced concern about breeding the
perfect hybrid that would' not withstand
disease oti its own and therefore require
costly medication. Dr. Schilthuis said that a
happy medium would' have to reached and
that a farmer on a herd health program would
keep records about medication fed to his
livestock and be more inforined about just
what is being introduced and therefore have
more control.
In other business the group was asked by
the provincial CFFO to consider a resolution
concerning their involvement with the
• Provincial Products Appeal Tribunal. Any
changes or discussion would be returned to
• the head office of the CFF. —
John Maaskant was on hand to speak to the
members about the resolution,
• The tribunal was first formed by the Farm
• Producers Marking Board as an outlet for
both individuals and groups to seek satisfac-
tion with marketing_boarproblems between them and their
, ,
_ d,_ -
Members of the tribunal are appointed by
the Ontario Minister of Agriculture ,Lorne
Henderson and Mr. Maaskant pointed out
that some •of the appointees , have no
background in agriculture. They only judge
what is brought . before them, said Mr.
Maaskant, and if some. information is not
presented ,to them it is not taken into
consideration when coming to a decision. Mr.
Maaskant also frowned en the use Of lawyers
saying it made it harder for the individual to
• take part and that with the use of lawyers
some may take advantage of the tribunal and
seek compensation for purely selfish motives.

That the CFFO endorse a two point role:
1, A. tO provide relief for individual
producers film marketing board regulation
where individual 'circumstances warrant it.
B) to itrovide a forum for debate and review of
the long term directions of producer plan
• production.
2. that CFFO encourage members as
individuals to seek relief from regulations
where their individual situations warrant it. .
• Mr. Maiskant pointed out to members that
while the tribunal was "basically a good
idea" it does wield more power than the body
• that initiated the formation of the• tribunal.
The local CFF decided to have the
resolution changed to indicate that debate
within their own organization be encouraged
concerning long term changes or the
direction of marketing boards. Once the
debate has been finalized, the results are to
be sent to the umbrella \organization of the
tribunal, _the_ Farm .Producers__Marketing.
Board. '

tribunal. g

Hydro committee. The groups united to fight
Ontario Hydro on the matter of transformer
lines through this area have streamlined
under one name and have retained the
Canadian Environmental Law Association
(CELA) to handle the case. ,
- The organizations involved - have given
$250 for a retainer fee and Mr. Jongejan
asked the membership if they would consider
also chipping in. While the provincial CFFO
is involved the Central Huron local is more
• closely involved. The membership agreed to
the proposal.
• Mr. Jongejan said that with the proposed
• development of a power grid there would be
massive industrial development that would
threaten the 1 million acres of class one
_foodland_in_Perth,__Huron_ and_ Middlesex_• _ _
counties. "We don't have a choice," said Mr.
Maaskant. "It would be shameful if we don't
support (the Foodlands Hydro committee.);'
