Their production has dropped, so they are buying from other producing countries and bartering them off for other goods." Last year Bulgaria bought 31 percent of the Ontario export bean, but this year's purchase by Cuba is the first -by that country. Another export sale, although smaller than some of the others, is interesting. Ontario white 'beans are going to Iraq. Broadwell said that country has tripled its order since indicating in- terest for the first time last summer. Broadwell commented,' "They are now up to eight percent and they may buy even more as the war with Iran continues. So far 755,172 hun- dredweight bags of beans of a total crop estimated at 1.5 million bags has been. sold. Ontario beans , are now selling for $34on the domestic market and export sales are bringing $33.

This provision has now been completely removed from the legislatiop and replaced by a responsibility section which requires the school board to either design a program to meet the child's needs or to purchasE the service from some place else. With the several amend- ments accepted by the Min- ister of Educaticin, Bill 82 is now considered to be a good piece of legislation that will be gradually implemented in demand that sexual orientat- ion be added to the prohibit- ed grounds for discriminat- ion.
