The OMPP
guarantees good benefits,
no stalling.
The average personal injury suit arising from
a car accident often takes several years to wind
its way through the court system before settlement.
That whole time, the injured person has to put
a life back together using personal or family
resources — and still might lose in court.
A new, comprehensive auto insurance
system is being introduced. It's called the
Ontario Motorist Protection Plan. Under the OMPP,
income replacement cheques begin arriving
within 10 days after the claim is filed. Within
30 days, money to cover medical bills and
therapy will be sent. No matter who caused
the accident.
The principle is: the sooner resources are
available to help an accident victim, the earlier
treatment and rehabilitation can begin. Studies
show early rehabilitation is more humane and
beneficial to the injured person.
The Ontario Insurance Commission is there
to ensure that injured people are treated fairly,
including providing services for solving disputes.
DO YOU KEEP THE RIGHT TO SUE?
Yes. While guaranteed accident benefits are there
for everyone, if an accident results in death or
serious permanent injury, you may still sue.
THE OMPP PUTS THE BRAKES
ON INSURANCE RATES. `
One of the major causes of the rising number
of accidents, injuries and lawsuits in Ontario is
the growing volume of traffic on the roads. But
a closer look at the $1.8 billion paid out for
bodily injury claims in 1988 shows that
hundreds of millions of dollars never reached
the victims. They went to pay the costs of the
adversarial legal system.
Under the OMPP, that money is now
used more effectively. It helps accident victims,
without an expensive legal battle to assess
"fault".
The new Plan will hold premium increases
this year to only 8 % on average in urban
areas, while average rates in rural areas will not
increase at all. Without a new system, you
would have seen a premium increase in the
30-35 % range.
DOES FAULT STILL COUNT?
Fault will continue to be used for rating purposes
as well as determining liability for damage
to yehiclekad driven will pay lit$ el pr 1nS
Those convicted of drunk driving or other
Criminal Code offences will not receive income
replacement benefits.
The new Plan is more than insurance
reform. Additional OPP will patrol the highways.
Fines for traffic violations such as speeding have
been more than doubled. Greater highway safety
is a good way to control costs and reduce injuries.
More than ever, it makes no sense to take
a chance while driving.
The Ontario Motorist Protection Plan makes
a fundamental distinction between good drivers
and bad drivers. It treats those involved in
accidents with compassion, guaranteeing benefits
and paying them quickly, regardless of fault.
It steers car insurance in the right direction.
Your insurance company and your broker or
agent have all the details. And you will receive
an information brochure with your premium notice.

Twenty-six Seaforth Women's
Institute members and friends
travelled to Brussels to the Golden
Lantern Restuaraat for their dinner
followed by a short business
meeting.
The roll call was answered by
telling "what you remember about
your first doll". Correspondence
was dealt with, and a happy An-
niversary was extended to Lloyd
and Winona Pipe. Viola Lawson
gave the report of the District An-
nual that was held in Zurich. Olive
Papple gave the report of Lavonne
Bath's talk, the quest speaker at
Zurich.
The July picnic has been cancelled
for this year.
Kay O'Rourke, who was in charge
of the meeting, gave the motto and
the read two poems, "Plant a Tree"
and "Let?s Think a,Mihhte".
The members then travelled to
Wroxeter to the Doll Museum,
where 3000 dolls were on display.
This was very interesting to see,
with so many different kinds of
dolls, and all so well preserved.
Everyone reported a very interesting
day.

The 33rd Dominion Convention
of the Royal Canadian Legion was
held last week at Vancouver. Every
two years a new` Dominion
President is elected. This year the
First Vice President Fred Williams
was elected President for the next
two years. Comrade Williams has
been associated with Dominion
command for a number of years
and holds numerous credentials for
his position of Dominion President.
Also elected to the Office of Vice
President was former Ontario
President Joe Kobalak who is no
stranger to our Branch, having been
a guest speaker on two occasions.
Princess Margarite of the Nether-
lands, who was born in Ottawa,
opened the Convention on the Sun-
day after a parade of a few
thousand veterans from all over
Canada. Strangely nothing of this
Convention was in any of the
papers, local or otherwise.
In our own Branch it was er-
roneously reported that the Branch
golf tournament will be on July 7.
The actual date is one week later,
on July 14. Your P.R.O. regrets the
error.
Don't forget the June Legion
meeting this Thursday at 8 p.m.
This will be the last general
meeting for the summer, so let's
have a good number of members in
attendance. There will be estimates
of the proposed addition to contain
the elevator for the Branch.
