- many Ont;a-ians arc finding
it a little difficult to "get into
the Christmas spirit" this

tumullous period - here in

As an elected represen-
tative, I have found that there
have been times during the
last twelve months when
political life has been almost
too eventful with a Federal

threatening but "cancelled -

ly by five by-elections. All this
"extra -curricula" activity.

tremely busy period through
which all elected represen-

particular. has made for an
extremely busy year.

Looking back
Traditionally at Christmas
time we concentrate on the
lighter side of life - the joy of
fellowship and good cheer,.the
eternal message of the story
of Nazareth. the happiness of
celebrating with our families
and friends.
This year there will. i think.
be an added pognancy for us
all, a threat of sadness and
sympathy which will run
through the pleasures and
gaiety of the Festive Season.
"('here wilt he times, I'm sure.
when our thoughts will turn to
those less fortunate than
ourselves.
This year. ths�• penpple of (►n-
tario and Car' a. have
perhaps more reason than
ever to count our blessings -
the rights and privileges of
living in a democratic socie-
ty in a country which is the
envy of other nations because
of ds incredible riches and
potential strength: the social
services "safety net" which
helps Canadians to weather
difficult tines: the ethnic
diversity which provides such
an abundance of cultural
pleasures: the bounty of the•
agricultural sector tchich en-
sures That this land of ours is
not ravaged by famine.
The list of our blessings is
well-nigh endless and unques-
tionably our greatest
resource is the Canadian peo-
ple - those who have lived
here for many generations
and those who have come
here from across the oceans
of the world. .people who
have demonstrated a strength
of spirit and a sturdiness of
purpose, combined with a
remarkable depth of feeling
for those who are experienc-
ing special difficulties - at
home and abroad.
We have much to be
thankful for - much to
celebrate this ('hristmas of
1984...and celebrate we shall-,
with our families, our loved
ones, our neighbours and
friends.
No natter how difficult the
times, the age-old story of
Christmas, the promise given
to us in that baby " laid in a
manger" all those centuries
ago. with all its attendant joys
- the exchanging of greetings,
gifts and cards. the visiting
and rejoicing, the magic of
the Christmas Services in our
('hurches, the age-old hymns,
anthems and carols - a source
of renewal, each and every
year, and perhaps the effects
will be intensified this year,
because we are going
throught a tuunultous period
in history.
To each and every one of
you, i extend my sincerest
good wishes for a Happy
Christmas, filled to overflow-
ing with the blessings of love
and fellowship. May the New
Year, which is fast ap-
proaching be truly a time of
renewal, bringing with it a
strong growth of peaceful
forces throughout the world.

conditions in Ontario which

After he had 'dealt' with the
elf, Santa plunged through the
snow heading for his cookie
filled kitchen. When he reach-
ed the door, his feet were very
wet - he looked across the
field and noticed that his
boots were about fifty metres
away, stuck in the snow.
Santa took the time
debating whether or not to
retrieve them. Though it was
close to a photo finish, he
decided to get the boots and
set off for them. Had he been
paying attention he would
have noted a fencepost -
which he hit - in his course.
December 24, 1984 - he's all
loaded up and ready to take
off. Up, up and away! He's
airborne! Soon Santa was on-
ly a speck that blended into
the starry night.

"Admiral, we are picking,
up a strange reading in Cana-
dian air space!" exclaimed
Private Smith.
"Send two intercept
fighters up to check it out"
returned the Admiral".
Within seconds, two F -15's
were speeding off to the
strange reading with orders
to kill.
* * * * *
Two fairly, faint specks
which grew very large - came
into Santa's vision.
SSSSSSSHIIEW! and a blin-
ding light were all Santa saw
before noticing that one of his
reindeer was missing! Lucki-
ly it came back into view
after doing a graceful arc to
avoid the missile.
"You can't do this to me,
I'm Santa!" he barely
squeaked before he fainted.
The pilots must have heard
him because they sped off as
if they had something better
to do.
Santa got hold of himself
and he soon reached the first
south
of many stops.

the last house! As Santa
eased down the last chimney
he felt his toenails being sing-
ed. Before he could say
'cookie' he was sitting on a
burning log with his green suit
a flame.
lie quickly reacted and roll-
ed around on the floor, ex-
tinguishing himself.
The last gift was placed
under the last tree of the last
house when:
Ruff! Buff! - dobermins!
Santa sped towards the
chimney hoping to outrace
the dogs. It was no use -
before long the dogs had
shredded Santa's green suit
and had left the room, as if
they had something better to
do.
Luckily, Santa reached
home alive and enjoyed a box
of cookies while watching
Mrs. Claus make him a new
red suit.
