MWP Tii. government created. ome rppes of resentment soin. weeks bock when it was announced tatit oiicniu h $100 monetary part of the Ontario Scholarship Prograrn award. As the MPP for this riding, I also -took considerable flack from Borne ofm constituents over the dropping of the $100 award., The. Onario Schlarship Programn was introduced in 1959 to recognize the high standard of academic work in Ontario secondary sehools and ta provide an incentive to our young people to proceed ta soin. form of pStsecondary educetion. Ini 1959, the $100 went a long way. It doesn't go for today. The. Ministiy 0f Educetion is now revising the program in order to recognize the outstanding acadeniic achievernent of al students. This includes those who are continuing their education ini university,, coilege, or an apprenticeship program, and those who are entering the workforce.1 In 1989-90, there were more thon 18,800 Ontoria acholors and et least that number are expected to qualify this year.

Toe do this, I believe that we rnust put as rnuch money as possible into educational prograrns and services. I arn very proud 0f our Ontarioaschlars. lb... students wiil continue to receive an Ontario schlar certificat., and a congratulatory letter signed b~y the minister, Marion Boyd, ta personally mark their achievernent.
