Start on fitness
By Shery I Feagan
Health Education consultant
Huron county health Unit •
Getting started. Keep going. F'or all
that has been produced on fitness in
the last few years, these are two areas
which have received relatively little
attention.Yet for many people to -day.
these are the most pressing fitness
issues. Most everyone knows that
fitness makes sense. But for all those
who want to get fit, about 8 in 10 either
can't get themselves moving or can't
seenrto keep themselves going.
Ready, set, no
J.M. is all dressed up for fitness, but
he can't get himself to get up and go
He just doesn't feel like it today. The
same thing happened yesterday. and
the day before that and...
In the early stages of your fitness
efforts you may come up against a
very common problem: you've decid-
ed to get fit, but, when the time comes
for activity, you just don't feel like do-
ing anything. What's wrong? You
might automatically assume that
there is something wrong with you.
But this is rarely the case. Rather. the
problem is the by-product of the inac-
tivity habit. We don't generally think
By Jack Riddell
A report commissioned by the On-
tario Government has been released
which reviews advocacy for
vulnerable adults living in Ontario.
Written by Father Sean O'Sulivan. the
report outlines the current situation
regarding non -legal advocacy ser-
vices in the province and proposes the
adoption of a new model for the
delivery of such services.
Father O'Sullivan said the essence
of advocacy is empowering people to
take charge of their own lives.
Vulnerable adults who could be
helped include the frail elderly. the
physically handicapped, the
psychiatrically disabled and the
developmentally handicapped.
The report recommends the On-
tario Government establish a central
advocacy office along with offices in
different regions of the province. As
well, it recommends a network of
volunteer advocates who would lobby
governments and institutions on
behalf of disabled people.
Attorney General Ian Scott, who
commissioned the report in
December 1986. said Father
O'Sullivan's report "represents an
important first step on the road to the
more sensitive delivery of services to
vulnerable adults in this province."
Mr. Scott said the report's recom-
mendations will be seriously con-
sidered by the Ministries of the At-
torney General, Health and Com-
munity and Social Services.
More women as top civil servants
Premier Peterson announced last
week a major restructuring of the
senior civil service of the Ontario
Government including the appoint-
ment of nine deputy ministers.

The inactivity habit can be a big
problem: It's a lot . harder to do
