These were conduct disorder, hyperactivity emotional disorder and somatization.

Jan. 23, the negotiating committees for the Durham Board of Education and District 17, Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation, reached a basis for settle- ment of the contract. The two year agreement will see secondary teaching salaries increased by 4.85% effective Sept. 1, 1988 and 4.9% effective Sept. 1, 1989. Allowances for positions of responsibility, such as department heads and chairmen, will increase hetween $160. and $412. over the same period. The O. D. A. schedule will . )e updated to 1988 effective %lar. 1, 1989, and to 1989 e f- -,ctive Aug. 1, 1990. Group f e insurance maximums -xill increase by $5,000. in the first year and $10,000 in the second year. Teachers will take over the LTD plan. Both parties agree to participate in a joint Employee Relations Com- tnittee to discuss board policies and procedures which deal directly with teachers. In future, staffing pro- cedures will have greater input from the federation and will be more of a co- opertive effort between the board and the federation. This will be accomplished through the formation of three committees to review and recommend allocation of staff to schools. With the addition of 25 teachers in September 1989 and 20 teachers in September 1990, the Pupil/Teacher Ration ( PTR) will move to 15.79:1 and 15.51:1 respectively. The Board will pay 50% of the benefit cost for teachers on maternity leave. The settlement represents an increased cost to the Board of $3,894,615. in 1988 89, and $4,817,405. in 1989/90. Durham Education Highlights -�tudeut Retention and Transition Program to Continue Ministry funding for Durham's Alternate Education for Student Retention and Transition program will run out the end of Janaury, 1989, Trustees approved a mo- tion to continue this pro- gram rogram at DASE Pickering campus until June 1990, subject to a review in June 1989. The program current- ly serves about 18 students. Social Workers' Program to be Extended Social workers from the Department of Social Ser- vices Family Counselling Divi*ion currently serve the needs of students in seven of Durham's dgh- teen secondary schools. The board approved in principle the concept of contracting social workers to be placed in the remain- ing secondary schools, with the exception of Cartwright HS and DASE, subject to approval in the upcoming budget deliberations. The program would be evaluated by June 1990. Approval was also given to hire approximately five social workers to serve the needs of students in the board's elementary schools, subject to Budget approval. This program would also be evaluated by June 1990. An Evening Of Romance Rouge Hill Library in- vites all teens and adults to enjoy an evening of roman- tic movies on Tues.

Finch Ave East through Scarborough has its lights geared to allow a smooth flow of traffic. But Sheppard Ave. E. has no smooth flow at all. We believe that with lights coordinated that rush hour lineup at night from Glenwat- ford Dr. to Kennedy Rd. could be eliminated. Any observer without traffic skills could see this answer. Dundas St. East from Kingston Rd. to Yonge St. is another good example of coordination working and the two lanes of traffic flows reasonably well considering the left and right hand turns which slows some of the cars down. According to what we are told by Metro traffic experts it is very easy to control these traffic lights with micro chips at the intersection. If the provincial government won't give any money into the pot for decent roads then at least the Metro property owners could handle the cost of a little more efficiency at the traffic lights. Can't Believe It Happened Dear Editor, I still cannot believe this incident happened, and I cannot believe what type of a person could do this totally irrespon- sible act. As I was going outside to our large container to get out the garbage, a truck pulled up outside my home and the driver got out and promptly started unloading green garbage bags and boxes ( from Xmas obviously - as they still had Xmas wrap on diem), right an the grass verge in front of the house. I went and asked what he was doing and his reply was he had missed the garbage at his house' If he had driven for another ten minutes he could have gone to the Morningside & Hwy 401 vard where there are garbage containers for the purpose of dumping. I told the man he had a nerve and I didn't like him dump- ing it on my house. However he seemed to think it was OK and off he went. There must have been 8 or 9 bags and boxes and I was ex- tremely angry at the inconsideration of this totally. ig- norant. selfish, stupid moron. No wonder some of the young people act without thinking. when they have older people of this calibre' to set them an example - the wrong kind' ' Irate Homeowner on Ellesmere Rd. Highland Creek To Supreme Court School teacher Mery Lavigne has vowed to take to the Supreme Court of Canada his landmark constitutional court challenge to the use of forced union dues for politicking. The Ontario Court of Appeal has overturned a 1966 ruling in his favour by the Supreme Court of Ontario. "I don't quit," said Lavigne. "I'm a mining engineer. I'm used to rocky roads. We've won one battle and lost one. The most important one is yet to corse and I'm confident we'll win in the Supreme Court of Canada." "'here are too many other workers out there who are counting on me. I've got to continue to fight the good fight... The National CitiaasI Coalition, which has backed Lavigne's challenge since be launched it in 1965, pledged to stand by him in the Supreme Court. We don't quit, either, " said David Somerville, President of the NCC. "As long as Mery needs our help, we'll stand with him." The NCC, which has the motto "for more freedom through less government", has relied on the volun- tary support of its 38,000 supporters to fund the expensive challenge. The Ontario Court of Appeal ruled that Lavigne couldn't invoke the Charter of Rights and Freedoms to support his claim. The Court also ruled that Lavigne's freedom of association had not been breached. The earlier Supreme Court of Ontario ruling had found both that the Charter applied and that there had been a breach of Lavigne's freedom of association Marketing For Asparagus A centrally controlled marketing system for fresh wholesale asparagus grown in Ontario will be establish, Minister of Agriculture and Food Jack Riddell has an- nounced.

Drug Policy For School Boards The formation of a ministry advisory committee to help school boards develop drug education policies has been an- nounced by Education Minister Chris Ward. The committee will be chaired by Karl Kinzinger, director of education for the North York Board of Education. 'Teachers. principals and school board officials must work in partnership with parents, communities, police and many others in our province to attack substance abuse," Ward said. Now Free of CFCs Canadian consumers won't see the difference, but poly`-tyrene foam meat trays, egg cartons, produce packag- ing and fast food containers, cups, plates and other food ser- vice products are no longer made with chlorofluorocarbons ( CFCs) . "Canadian plastics mainufacturers made a com- mitment to eliminate CFCs from their food service industry products by the end of 1968 and most have now done so," reports Dr. Fred Edgecombe, Technical Director for The Society of the Plastics Industry of Canada (SPI). The makers of these foam products are using alternative compounds called hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs ) which reduce the potential for ozone depletion by 95 percent compared to CFCs. Sales Establish New Benchmark More homes were sold on MLS in Canada's 25 major markets during 1988 than at any other time in the associa- tion's history, says The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) . On a cumulative basis ( January to December, 198B) home purchases numbered 215,828, representing a signifi- cant 11.6 percent increase compared to 193,437 recorded in 1987. ;150,000 Grant For Cultural Centre The Holy Trinity Armenian Church has been awarded a Community Facilities Improvement Grant of $150,000 by the Ontario Minister of Citizenship Gerry Phillips.

You can 4elp bWld through non profit hoii%_is ing The governments of Canada and Ontario are building for tomorrow. We have plans to create a wide range of new non- profit housing, and we need your group to get involved and develop non-profit housing in your community. This program will be sub- sidized by the Government of Canada through Canada Mortgage and Housing Corpo- ration and the Province of Ontario through the Ministry of Housing. Funding is available to non- profit and co-operative organi- zations, churches, service clubs and other community groups interested in sponsoring affordable housing. In some neighborhoods, citizens have received govern- ment grants to set up their own community-based groups. The result is affordable housing for moderate and low-income families, senior citizens and single adults. For more Information, your community groups should contact the nearest regional office of the Ministry of Housing listed below. The deadline for preliminary applications is April 28,1989. Help build for the future. Get involved in non-profit housing today. Non-profit housing -everyone benefits.

Feb. S, 1888 Bill Watt's Worlds ON YOUR TOES: The National Ballet of Canada begins its current engagement at The O'Keefe tonight with its ;now world famed produe- 'tion of Romeo and Juliet. Veronica Tennant will dance Juliet tonight and in all save one of the perfor- mances. Sunday will mark Miss Tenant's final ap- pearance as a member of the company. The Sunday performance will be a gala touched with considerable sadness over the departure of this superb dancer. The company continues, however, and so it was that we found ourself recently at Abundance, the restaurant owned by Prin- cipal Character Dancer Charles Kirby for a breakfast to announce the 89;'90 Season. It promises to be an ex- citing season with several new works to balance the favoured and favourite classic works. Further details will appear here as and when. Here are some other highlights not necessarih• in any order of importance. Guest artists will be Evelyn Hart, Marie - Christine Mouis and popular Peter Schaufuss who returns to present his delightful work Napoli. The second annual Erik Bruhn Prize Competition will be held on May 13th. The National's represen- tatives will be Jennifer Fournier and Stephen Legate. There will be an eight ci- ty tour of Germany from May 31st through June 23rd with appearances in Leverkusen, West Berlin, Friedrichshafen, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Kiel and Stuttgart. The Nutcracker will return for the Yuletide and this year, barring any more union nonsense, the Nutty Nutcracker will finally be presented on New Year's Eve making the O'Keefe most definitely the place to be. Must hustle off to The O'Keefe now for tonight's performance. Ballet's back and Billy's happy. ON RECORD: Winter Was Around and About Your Dining &Entertainment Guide HardiKronos Quartet (Elektra /Nonesuch). Winter was hard alright . . particularly listening to it! The Krorws Quartet - two violins, viola and cello played in more or less classic discipline - seems to be the musical heir of the Modern Jazz Quartet and we all know how preten- tiously and punishingly bad it was. Good music needs no new expression - it doesn't real- ly matter here; most of the music of the second half of the 20th century is dreadful - and it certainly does not need such excreta as manipulated turntables ac- companied by a Japanese vocalist who sounds con- stipated singing (?) For- bidden Fruit.

Samuel Barber's Adagio might conjure up a memory of the motion pic- ture Platoon in which it was featured but that's about all. Oh listen friends, we'd better pack it in before we become vicious. Maybe time is passing us by; maybe winter is too hard now but we fund little if anything of value musical- ly in this album. We suggest with respect that the Kronos Quartet should take its undoubted musical skills and go back to doing that for which it should have been formed; true chamber music. There's always room for another Budapest String Quartet. IN PRINT: If you watch the Pat Sa- jak Show ( does he really live under a toadstool?) regularly you recently saw the comic genius Stan Freberg. A practicing satirist Stan Freberg has mace millions laugh with his inspired parodies and just millions with his fine commercials. When ever you see a televi- sion commercial that is slightly off beat but effec- tive, chances are it's one by Stan Freberg. Older readers will recall his send ups in the early fif- ties of Johnny Ray singing Try and of Jack Webb with St. George and the Dragonet. Well Mr. Freberg has just written the first volume of his autobiography. Published by Times Books (Double- day) it's titled It Only Hurts When I Laugh and such is our admiration for Mr. F. that we forgive the misplaced conjunctive "on ly.. of the title. The book is a pleasure and we suggest that all will find it so, not just those who are interested in or members of the worlds of show business. For our part, we were hooked from the very beginning of the book when it is disclosed that like your correspondent, Mr. Freberg's first love was and remains radio. Like ourself, he loved the wit of Fred Allen and even Vic and Sade. If those names mean anything to you, then you'll truly enjoy Only When I Laugh. Also mentioned is the early radio genius Norman Corwin though we confess curiosity over the omission of Arch Oboler. He also mentions the in- fluence of S.J. Perelman whom he considers the fun- niest writer of all.

Bring home a Golden Book 'n' Tape available at fine book and department stores for $7.95 or less Y & R's Victor Newman At Parkway Mall Feb. 11 th Eric Braeden is now in his 8th year as the hand- some and sophisticated Victor Newman on C.B.S. ,'The Young do Restless" and is one of day times most popular leading men. As the sauve Newman, Braeden has played op- posite some of daytime's most popular leading his belief. By now one will have gathered that perhaps we shouldn't be offering a review of the book; we are too much an admirer of Stan Freberg and our critical acuity could be suspect. Well, govern yourselves accordingly but we stand by our assessment that this is most enjoyable and - are you ready Stan? - a pro- fitable experience. IN CONCERT: Popular Michael Danso brings his White Tie i Tails concert to Roy Thomson Hall for an 8 p.m. concert on Feb. 19th. He will be accompanied by the Toronto Paps Or- chestra conducted by Nor- man Reintam and, as always, will perform the music of Gershwin and Ell- ington. One's initial reac- tion is that the music of those two composers is too disparate to be a viable combination but in fact and under the tight production control of Mr. Daruo it works. Go, see and bear for yourself. DINNER THEATRE: Stage West officially opens its new production this Friday. Beehive is described as a no-hokk, barred musical tribute to the female singers of the sixties. Having seen another pro- duction of the show previously at the Imperial Room we can attest it is all that is claimed of it. ladies. He was also honoured as the Best New Daytime Star in the eleventh Daytime TV Magazine Reader's Poll. Eric Braeden will be signing autographs and answering questions in the new centre court area of Parkway Mall on Sat. Feb. lith at 12:30 p.m. 555 W The Stage West presenta- tion stars Mary Wilson one of the original supremes and, in the minds and ears of many, a considerably better singer than Diana Ross. A full review follows. MOVIE NEWS: Ordinarily this column doesn't mention motion picture openings but an ex- ception is being made for Paramount Pictures local release Friday of Cousins. One of the cast members is Isabella Rossellini and yes, she is the daughter of the late film director Roberto Rossellini . No, we don't know if she is the daughter of Ingrid Bergman - Fly II opens tomorrow night as well. We will have seen it last night at an ad- vance showing and our review will follow. Here's something to reflect upon. Let us sup- pose that the first film had not been titled The Fly but rather, The Bee. Would the inevitable sequel have been titled Son of A Bee? These are the questions that keep deep thinkers awake at night. FAST EXIT: Perhaps we're still under the influence of Stan Freberg but we've just had what we think is a great idea for the upcoming Valentine's Day. Why don't enterprising butchers pro- mote heart for Valentine's Day dining? Any lady who would prepare our favourite bak- ed beef heart would most certainly be our valentine.

Phase 2, which will cost a total of $6.8 million, is scheduled for completion in the sum- mer of 1989. Phase 1 consists of in- stallation of an ultramodern artificial snowmaking system with a fully computerized control room, acquisition of two Bombardier R -4000s, physical improvements to the trails on Mont Cheval Blanc and Mont Vanier, modernization of the mechanical lift system and expansion of the ski chalet. Financing of the $6.8 million project was made possible by a joint Quebec and federal government $2,575,000 grant in conjunc- tion with the Subsidiary Canada -Quebec Agree- ment on Tourism. The owners of Mont Saint - Marie, OBP Holding, in- vested $4,225,000 approx- imately. In his speech, Mr. Charette stressed the fact that these extensive modernizations would enable the Mont Saint - Marie ski centre to provide better service to its clientele. "Thanks to our sophisticated artificial snowmaking equipment," Lne added, "the number of skiable days per year will be up 300%. We believe that with these new facilities, beginning this season Mont Sainte -Marie will be able to accommodate more than 110,000 skiers.

METRO -WIDE & WORLD WIDE DELIVERY Let love "bloom" this Valentine's Week Folklore tells us that St. Valentine was a young Roman cleric unjust)yy imprisoned by an emperor. To get word to his loved -ones that he was still alive, he managed to pick the petals of a violet growing out- side his cell window and pierce them with the words remember your valentine". The message was then deliver- ed by a dove. Although the violet has since become the official Valentine's Week flower, to- day valentines use all types of flowers to express their feel- ings to relatives, friends and sweethearts. According to Florists' Transworld Delivery Association, the industrv's leading flowers -by -wire ser- vice. consumers enjoy Valentine's Week floral gifts of any colour or type of flower as long as their overall appear- ance conveys the feelings of the occasion. Lots of Options "If you want to say 'be my valentine' with flowers, you have a lot of options to choose from. ' says FTD President Jim Durio. "You don't have to buy a dozen roses, in fact research shows that the most popular floral gift is a mixed, cut flower arrangement." With this in mind. FTD has designed two special bouquets for Valentine's Week gift -giv- ing. For valentines with a sweet tooth, the Candy Hearts Bouquet combines a romantic floral arrangement with a can- dy gift. The bouquet of red. pink and white blooms is ar- ranged in a decorative ceramic bowl. An accompanying plas- tic trav features a heart -shaped container of cinnamon can- dies. Another arrangement sure to capture your valentine's heart Is the Crystal Bowl Bou- quet. This gift of fresh spring- time blooms is arranged to a hand -frosted, 24 per cent full lead crystal bowl, which will serve as a reminder of your love and affection long after Valentine's Week has passed. If you want to cater to a specific taste or budget, any number of bouquets can be designed with red hearts or cupids to relay a special romantic message. "Even a green or flowering plant decorated with ribbons, lace or other accessories can serve as a Valentine's Week gift," Durio says "Plants are a wonderful expression that will last long past the holiday as a reminder of your affections" Flowers for Men For women looking for something to give that special man, there's no reason not to send Valentine's Week flo- wers as well. A recent survey of floral purchasers indicates that 46 per cent of Valentine's Week buyers are women. An ideal bouquet to give to a man is one that includes bright -col- oured blooms arranged in a masculine container. Whether you're sending Valentine's Week greetings to a friend, family member or sweetheart, FTD stresses the importance of ordering floral gifts as early as possible. "The demand for flowers RED HOT VALENTINE.- The FTD Candv Hearts Bouquet expresses your message of romance to long-distance valentines or to those richt around the corner. This cheerful arrangement is displayed in a matching tray, which includes a heart -shaped compartment Flled with cinnamon candies. during Valentine's Week is great and inclement weather can affect supplies, shipments and local deliveries," Durio says "Ordering early will en- sure a large variety of flowers from which to choose." You may also want to consi- der early delivery. Sending your gift several days before the holiday will surprise the recipient, who will enjoy being one of the first to receive a Valentine's Week gift. no -m Say It Send Your AOM .,it, flowers � .

Feb. 8, 1989 THE NEWS/POST Page 11 Heritage Month Films At Library Recycling At Atlantic Packa Atlantic Packaging has been recycling waste paper of various grades since 1968 at its Scarborough paper mill. While the company uses a number of grades of waste paper, the most com- mon one is old (used) cor- rugated shipping con- tainers. Generally speaking, the company's source of supp- ly has been from waste paper dealers and large generators such as in- dustries, stopping centres and supermarkets. Over the years, there has developed a formal pro- cedure for handling this type of waste - large generators have invested in baling equipment and recovered their expenses from the revenue they earned selling the cor- rugated waste. Quite a number of years ago, Atlantic Packaging put a fleet of packer trucks an the road to collect small quantities from local in- dustries and stores. The idea was to provide a free service that was mutually beneficial. The smaller generators could not justify investing money into bal- ing equipment, let alone the labour to operate it, and the packer truck service met this need. Over the years, other companies using waste paper came onto the recycling scene and de- mand for waste paper in- creased. This created pressures in the marketplace, which af- fected the value of the material. Traditionally, waste paper is a commodity where the price is established by the simple law of supply and demand. As demand increased beyond the available ton- nage, oo-nage, the price increased in order to attract more col- lections of corrugated waste. Some firms foumd that they could cost -justify the collection of corrugated waste because of its in- creased value. As supply exceeded demand, this had the effect of weakening the price and bringing the balance of supply and de - Reception To Cut Red Tape Local realtors and developers have been in- vited to a special open hose - the first of a series of meetings hosted by the Economic Development Department on Tours. Feb. 9 at 4 p.m. at the Scar- borough Civic Centre. The program is part of Economic Development's program of finding methods to help cut red tape and build a better relationship between the ci- ty and the business development community. Economic Development, along with the Buildings, Works and Planning departments will each give a short address on their role in the city and how they can provide assistance in the planning and/or building permit pro- cess.

The forces that affect the price of corrugated waste have no relationship to the price of the end product. Therefore, when the price of raw material went up, Atlantic Packaging did not expect to recover this addi- tional expense by increas- ing the price of its end pro- duct. In order to increase its consumption of corrugated waste, Atlantic invested in expensive state-of-the-art equipment to handle the propercleaning of waste to industry ndustry standards. In so doing, the company's waste disposal costs in- creased not only because of the increased quantity, but because of the large in- crease in dumping fees at landfill sites. In the past year, many new influences have emerged that are affecting the traditional marketplace for waste paper, such as banning the dumping of certain waste materials in dumpsites. The large increase in ging dumping fees implemented last year and another pro- posed for this year, has made the disposal of gar- bage an extremely expen- sive item for most com- mercial establishments. This, combined with the banning of dumping of cor- rugated waste, most recently in the Durham Region Brock Road landfill site, has encouraged many people to look for alter- natives to this high cost of disposal. While Atlantic still has a large capacity for locally produced corrugated waste, its resources to han- dle large numbers of pick- ups, is limited to the number of its packer trucks. The company recently added two new packer trucks to its fleet. The high cost of these trucks (approximately $100,000 each) makes the cost of this packer pick-up service very expensive. Atlantic may have to in- stitute a pick-up charge to recover some of the casts. GeneraUy speaking. the Steeles Branch Library on on Sat. Thurs. Feb. 9 for the first 65 to arrive only.

Don't Drink & Drive Queen's Park Report from Norah Stoner MPP Durham West Ontario faces long term labour market pressures that will require long term solutions, commitment and per- sistence from many different groups and individuals, ac- cording to Skills Development Minister Alvin Curling. Mr. Curling was the guest speaker at a business Report from Ottawa from Rend Soetens MP Ontario Riding The week of Jan. 22nd certainly had a stir about it, thanks to the Toronto Star. For some reason "the Star" saw fit to resurrect the threat of a new airport in Pickering as the lead article in its Sunday edition. They revealed some infor- mation (a report?) on the subject which no one else seems to have had, with the result that a great flurry of concerned activity was generated within the rest of the news media. In anticipation of inquiries from concerned constituents I contacted the office of the Minister of Transport on Monday with my own inquiries. I was advised clearly and definitely that there was no new report or study on the Pickering Air- port either received or commissioned by them. Further- more they did not know anything about the report to which "the Star" had alluded. I think it is safe to acknowledge that there are problems at Pearson International Airport. Problems which must be addressed and for which solutions must be found. The volume of air traffic wishing to fly into the Toronto area is bound to increase and with it the need for creative solutions to present and future problems. In the discussions and planning that will be taking place I believe that the following topics should be included as items that could help to resolve the situation at Pearson Interna- tional Airport. Although not limited to these items the list includes: (I) a fourth terminal at Pearson (II) an additional runway at Pearson (I11) banning of recreational flyers from Pearson (IV) diversion of private corporate planes from Pearson (V) increased use of Toronto Island, Oshawa and Button- ville Airports (VI) transfer of cargo and charter flights to Mount Hope Airport in Hamilton (VII) the hiring of more air traffic controllers The provincial government of Premier Bill Davis refused in the seventies to provide necessary services such as roads and sewers to the Pickering Airport Lands. This effectively scuttled the airport. I might point out that the service reeds are still there for an airport in Pickering. So, if the govern- ment of David Peterson really doesn't want such an airport, it can resort to the same methods of thwarting it. Given the serious ground transportation problems that exist in the western parts of Durham Region and the limited ability of the municipalities to keep up with the demands on their services the province wi 11 have a key role to play in the problems' solution. The proposed construction of Seaton, a City of some 100.000 people, on provincial land just south of the Pickering Airport lands, will become part of the pro- blem and create additional pressure of its own. The Pickering Airport Lands are there and the govern - Merit is committed to retaining a portion of them for a future airport. If there are any developments pertaining to these lands 1 assure you I will be there on your behalf and I will keep you posted. breakfast I recently held in Pickering. He told the audience of about 75 that the most productive asset in this province is the workforce. "But if our workers are to compete with the best in the world, both employers and employees must make a deep rooted commitment to training and lifelong learning. "For tomorrow's skills, Ontario's employers mast look to the retraining and upgrading of the existing workfare. It is only equitable to help workers adjust to changes in the economy. What's more, it is imperative if even more severe skills shortages are to be avoided." He pointed out that according to a recent Ministry publication shortages of high skill workers are already be- ing felt, particularly in areas such as tool and die makers; machinists, welders, electronics installers and repairers, pattern makers and moulders, and construction trades workers. Mr. Curling said the goal is to establish a training culture at every level of Ontario society. He said a training culture is where the importance of skills training is understood and acted upon routinely, normally and as a matter of course. He added that the Ministry's role is to encourage, assist and empower Ontario's businesses and workers to. develop the skills they need. "Our mission is to act as the catalyst for the indispen- sable personal and corporate commitment to training, Mr. Curling said. He said as Ontario moves into the 199o's there are three major sets of transitional economic pressures coming to bear: a sweeping shift in global trading patterns; rapidly advancing technologies, and major shifts in our population and demographic base. "The challenge for us as a province is to face these tides in such a way that we are not submerged, but in fact strengthened," Mr. Curling said. He added that Ontario's chief weapon in the struggle for world product mandates will have to be its highly skilled workforce. Mr. Curling said that while the Ministry of Skills Develop- ment does not pretend to have all the answers or the capaci- ty to carry out everything that has to be done, it does have the information, the knowledge, and the resources to bring partnerships together that can deal with the immediate, urgent challenges.
