Vamtilly Aging Ontarians need security BY JACK RWDELL MPP We recently celebrated Senior Citizens' Week in Ontario • and rightly so. It is always a particular pleasure to recognize the contribution being made and the contribu- tion which has been made over the years by our older citizens, It is also a particular responsibility to ensure that senior citizens are not dis- criminated against because of their age. Ontario's population is ra- pidly aging. In fact, by the year 2001, with the post war baby boom moving up the age scale, 13.6 per cent of the total population will be over 65. compared with 8.9 per cent in 1976. Statistics from the Treasury Ministry con- firm that not only is the elderly population growing at a much faster rate than the population at large, but more significantly, the over 75 group, who need the greatest amount of health care and use a disproportionate number of hospital beds. will increase by 120.6 per cent by 2001. In Ontario, 868,200 people, rep- resenting one in ten, are now over 65. The social and economic implications of the "Geriatric Boom" are becoming more important. For example, wherever possible we 'should be providing care for the elderly outside our costly medical framework through the community-based service approach. However, the On- tario Government has failed to translate the rhetoric of non -institutionalization into the development of a compre- hensive system of home sup- port and community services. There are close to 50,000 of Ontario's elderly who could use some form of home maintenance support which would help keep them in their homes instead of institution- alizing them. While recognizing the com- plexities of the pre blems involved, we cannot overlook the fundamental principle that advancing age must not deprive a person of freedom of choice as to how they conduct their lives. There are two primary issues to be considered here. First, we must keep institu- tionalization to a minimum, permitting elderly people to continue to live in their preferred surroundings. The second issue is econ- omic security, and in this connection we shall have to tte,prep,Ored , ,asA,.socie,ty, to enrich income programs, to compensate for the erosion of value caused by inflation. In 1982, Liberal Leader British pensioners organize BY HELEN OWEN The unfortunate plight of British Old Age Pensioners may not be appreciated by those unaware of their situa- tion, hut the facts are that 'those who choose to live in 'Canada are penalized. Their pensions are fixed so that in tunes of rising inflation they have to contend with rising costs. and in addition the failing rate of exchange has further exacerbated the situ- ation. However. in April a group of pensioners in 1 oronto decided to take positive ac- tion, and a newly formed organization rim& into being the British Pensioners ,lssociationi(anodai which, it is hoped. will he able to bring pressure to hear to renicds the situation Registered as a charitable, non•profil making group. non -parts and non political, it is hoped that this new senturc will reletve the support of the mans whn stand to benefit from its activities. An application has already been filed for affiliation to the National Federation of Old Age Pensioners Association (U.K.). and there is every indication that it will be accepted. With the support of 9.2 million O.A.Ps with vot- ing rights, this promises to be a strong lobby. The case of the pensioners abroad has already been put to the Minister concerned noting. "We are particularly concerned about the position in Canada. The Canadian government have already in• dicated their readiness to resolve the matter of recipro- city, but has only met with obstruction from successive British governments." This statement reveals the con- cern that is felt. The new organization seeks resolutions and fair treatment for O.A.P.s in Canada, bearing in mind that those in the U.S.A. received fully indexed pensions. Many JJ©cPa°g �ottt �1g David Peterson tabled a reso- lution to increase the GAINS payment of the single elderly person to bring their income up to a level of at least 60 per cent of the level of a married couple. We believe that any policy for the aged must have four central components: provi- sion for retirement- because a job is a basic human right and people do not all age at the same rate; housing - some shelter costs copld be control- led if Ontario Hydro adopted our proposal for a "lifeline rate' structure to provide at a lower rate the basic electricity necessary for survival; trans- portation with improve- ments in accessibility for those seniors living on the outskirts of communities and those needing assistance such as grab bars or designa- ted seating; and finally the opportunity to continue in the learning process through courses in our community colleges. The American sociologist Bernice Neugarten has coint ed the phrase the "young - old" to refer to people, rich 16 years and experience, who have every intention of coni tinning to be active anti involved. While these people may have special physics! and economic needs, they want and deserve to have greater opportunities for pro- ductive living; life-long learnt ing, cultural enrichment+ community participation and local political involvement. Goals and priorities must be set on the basis of a cies, recognition of the speciat rights andotential of 'alt human beings, regardless of age.

Over the years many pen- sioners have written letters and made appeals for the matter to be re -considered. Now, in order to pursue their objectives, it is essential that those who are penalized by the unequal situation should give their wholehearted sup- port to the new venture specifically initiated to fur- ther their interests. In this they will, through united and co-ordinated effort, be in a position to direct their en- deavours through those chan- nels most able to attain democratic access to parlia- mentary attention to the injustice of a 'frozen pension policy'.

Surrounded, by strawberries? Here are some ' helpful freezing tips Choose the hest berries. ripe. 'but still firm Do not freeze green fruit. or fruit which is overripe or dam• aged. Strawberries ma s be frozen with or without sugar. To package there with sugar. use 125 nil of sugar for 1 1_ of whole hurries or 1-5 011 of sugar for 1 1 of sliced or quartered berries To pack age the fruit without sugar. plait the hurries whole on a cookie sheet and freeze for .15 mmutcsnruntil firm and then pack. Strawberries frozen without sugar arc paler in colour and their texture softer than berries frozen with sugar. To use frozen straw- berries in the preparation of jams, measure the quantity called for in the recipe and freeze this amount without sugar. Package the frozen fruit in freezer bags. Remove the air in the bags with a straw, seal well and label. Store in the freezer at -18"C and use within one year. When frozen strawberries are to be served by them- selves, they are best when not completely thawed. Allow 6 to 8 hours in the refrigerator to thaw a 500 mL container of fruit, 3 hours at room temper- ature and 1 hour under cold running water. For pies and puddings, thaw the berries just enough to be able to separate and use in the same way as fresh berries. Reduce the amount of sugar called for in a recipe when using berries packaged with sugar. SCHNEIDERS SAUSAGES POLISH ,LINK300.0 SKINLESS 1..89 COUNTRY GOLD SLICED COOKED HAM175a1.49 SCHNEIDERS REG.
