The Government of Ontario recognizes that the cultural traditions and heritages' of its peoples are just as important as skills or edutation in building a better life. We know that it is people and not things that deter- mine a' society's greatness and there is nothing more valuable to people than their culture. That's why Ontario has established a pew ministry devoted solely .to supporting corn- t'hunity and personal betterment—the Min- istry of Culture and Recreation. We hope that through a wide range of programs frOm theatre to hockey, dance groups to libraries, we will 'be able to keep alive the spark of individual creativity and human excellence that makes a culture worth preserving. More importantly, we hope to share with others the riches and insights that come from active involvement in community life. A culture must be shared with other people if it is to stay alive. It is by living out culture that We can really share this gift with other peoples and promote greater understanding among Canadians. The Ontario Ministry Of Culture and Rec- reation has been established to promote and encourage cultural expression of all kinds and of all peoples in our province. 'We know that keeping alive our cultural heritage is essential to the future of everyone. In Ontario we're doing something about it.
