There are now a total of 310 of these safety and crime prevention programs serving more than 400 communities in Ontario. During the past year 50 new programs have begun throughout therovince, many in small towns and villages following the lead of their larger neighbors, Residents of these communities realize crime is not limited to large cities and towns. Although the Block Parent Programs in Ontario are coordinated by a Provincial, Board of Directors, each local program operates independently. Each Program is organized by volunteers from the community with the cooperation of their Police Force, Boards of Education and Municipal Government, Each Program is funded through the efforts of its members and with contributions received from the general public, local businesses and service organizations. The Board of Directors of the Ontario Block Parent Program Incorporated says it is pleased with the new way the program has continually grown. and expanded during the 17 years since its inception. The Block Parent Program began in 1968 as an "idea" in the minds of a few London residents concerned with the safety and protection of the children of that city from crimes being perpetrated against them - crimes of abduction, molestation and even murder. From that "idea" the Block Parent Program has become a "fact" in over 1,000 Riddell ready for stabilization program Jack Riddell was ready in August for a stabilization program but the Ontario Cattle- men's. Association and the Canadian Cattle- men's Association asked him to hold off. Mr. Riddell, the Ontario agriculture minister, got annoyed.when he was criticized for the delay of stabilization. Mr. Riddell was the guest speaker in his home riding at a meeting of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture. "I want you to know, that as of the end of August, I was ready for stabilization," said the agriculture minister. However, he said he was asked to hold off , so Federal Agriculture Minister John Wise :mild make a national stabilization program. Me. Riddell's words heated up and he asked his audience several times if they wanted to know who had asked him to hold off. He said it was .the Ontario Cattleman's Association, the Canadian Cattlemen's Asso- ciation and verbal conversation with the pork producers. "It's not fair to be critical of the minister of agriculture, at least not this minister," said Mr. Riddell. He later apologized for getting annoyed. "I'm sorry I got annoyed. But obstacles are Sports deadline is Monday noon put in my way for no reason," he said. Mr. Riddell also commented that he wished other members of parliament were pe esent so they could go back to Ottawa and tell Mr. Wise that farmers have "played around long enough." The comment was in reference to Huron -Bruce MPMurray Cardiff who was absent from the meeting. Mr. Riddell did say that earlier conversa- tions with his federal counterpart indicated there could be some program by the end of October. I'm not about to let Wise off the hook," he said. The agriculture minister has been making the rounds of federation meetings and fairs, including an incident last Tuesday when some tobacco farmers had to be taken away by police at the Norfolk County fair. communities across Canada. Communities that range from major metropolitan cities to small villages and hamlets. Across Canada the red and white sign, showing an adult holding the hand of a child, has become a familiar sight. The people behind the signs in all of these communities have agreed to make them- selves and their homes available as places of refuge, protection and help to those in dangerous or frightening situations, when- ever they display this unique sign. Block Parents realize they can make a difference .to what happens or doesn't happen in their neighborhoods. They are willing to take some responsibility for their own safety and the safety of others. They maybe "strangers" to a child, but to most children Block Parents are known as "Safe Strangers" - "Safe Strangers" who are willing to help them if or when they are needed. In support of the Block Parent Organiza- tion, and in an effort to help prevent crime in the neighborhoods, Mac's Milk Stores across the province will be selling 1986 Crime Prevention Calendars at a cost of $1.50. Approximately 50 cents per calendar will go to support the provincial Block Parent organization. Mac's Milk will also, for a four week period beginning October 21, further support the Block Parent Program by featuring coin collection boxes in all' their stores. In Seaforth information about Block Parents can be received from Mrs. M. Ivngstaff of Adam Street. (KELLOGGS mac° (( (FINEST QUALITY fKrup�es�I RICE ZEHRS KRISPIES - BUTTER 575 g BOX 1 lb.
