NOT AGAIN — That's what all of Brussels was saying last week when another
broken water main, this time near the arena, meant the whole village's water had to
be turned off until repairs could be made. (Photo by Langlois)

serious problems.
This iswhatOntario
is doing to help solve
them in advance.
Recently arrangements were made for a group of Indian
children to attend the public school in a northern Ontario
town. The principal of the school in the town was aware
that Indian children sometimes had a rough time at the
hands of other students, and to try to forestall this kind
of situation, he called in a Human Rights Commission
counsellor to talk to the other children. The counsellor
asked the children if any of them had ever moved to a new
school, and what they thought it would feel like if they were
the strangers. In this way he helped them understand how
the Indian children would be feeling when they arrived, and
the integration proceeded relatively smoothly.
Community counselling is one of the major roles of your
Ontario Human Rights Commission. We hold seminars
and discussions With police in areas where there are
communication barriers between them and minority
groups, to help relieve tension and promote mutual
understanding. We attend meetings of immigrants and
native'-born minority groups to explain to them both their
rights under the legislation and their responsibilities as
citizens Of this Province.
We also help bring people into contact With local
agencies like home-and-school groups, community and
government agencies, and churches, Which are available
to help but which many people don't even knoW exist.
Wherever there's difficulty based on race, language,
colour or creed, the Human RightS Commission is available
to generate disqUssiOn and motivate people to develop
understanding and respedt for the other's point of view.
Our job is to help bring people together and encourage
healthier relationships among all groups.
