ORONO WEMEKLY TIMES, THURSi)AY, OCTB ER aist, 196à OR ONO WEEKLY TIMES Estblihedin 1938 by R. A. Forrester R.oy C.- Forrester -,-Editüic and Man.ag-er. HUI'TING. REGULATIONS COULD BE TOUGH "You just stand there, lookîng cute: And when something moves,, you shoo>t." These lines from Tom Lehrer's sEùtiricaliy humorous song 'for bunters, says The Prince Rupert News, can ,"'be applied serlously to a large numiber of gun4otin.g city types who invade the British Colunmb'a wilderness each autunin adblaze away indiscriminately." The B.C. paper continues: Each ye'ar during the huntin1g season an unnecessary tolli-in buman lives is taken by trigger-happy bunters. As well, tbey show a blatant disregard for our wildlif e by ieaiv- animails and birds wounded through pot shots. SIgnificant numbers of geese and ducks, deer and big game animais, are left'lo die in what is nothirig but an a.ppaiing waste. Many of these 'bunters like to call.,themselves sports- trnen, but they make a farceof the name. In a day when there is no need for slaughter of our Wldlif e for subsistence, every bunter who goes out for bis bag in the namne of sport and pleasure sbould be concerned with makîng bis ~shots good and makin'g good use of his catch. Our lawg are dir- ected to this end. Himting should not be considered a right but a privil- ege. Ib bas been a privilege ever since man developed. the weapons that give hiam unlimited advantage by which he bhas also comipietely oblterated several species of brds and animais from the face of the earth. I-t is a privilege wbicb sbould be used with the utmost discretion. If it were exer- cised witb discretion by ail there woul be a lot less wastefui killing and property damage. 1The Ontario government has f inally beeded tbe tol of 11e and property taken by hunters. Lands and Forests Minister Roberts bas announced that bis department is preparing new regulations under the Game and Fish Act that will mean more unifonm testing o! hunting qualifica-. tions, wit'h the tests conducted by department staff througb- out the province. Tests wïll include wvritten exazminations for new applicants for buntîng licences. Mr. Roberts said the pencing changes were part of a safety program launched in 1959. That program has'bad ,only limited success. The departanent bas plenty of time between now and the next buntîng season to draw up regulations wbich will meet present-day bunting conditions- LET THE SEPARATIST BUILD Somie weeks ago a group of University Professors came fortb witb a proposai that French.be a language in wbicb some subjec'ts in Higb Schooi would be taugbt ratber than using English. They feit that such a move would strengtben ithe bonds of confederatiion. First oYff we ,might s?.y tha.t sucb a proposai is a long way off. NoWhere in Canada could there be found a suf- ficient number of teachers to carry out such a proposai even if ýit wa.s logical. Secondly a child would bave ta start at a pre-scbool age to learn botb languages in order that they ýJouid be fluent in bath to, understand and to express tbem- selves. The thougbt that such, a move wouid strenglhen the bocnds of confederabion is off, the beani. VWhy wouidl one reasan that speaking two languages is going ta correct a situation that bas littie to do with language or culture? The separati.st movemen!t in Quebec is a revoit for a' better standard of ivirg and the fact that otber sectors of Canada cao speak two languages will. have littie bearing on raising snch staldards.. The separatist possIbly looks at Ontario and says, "Why can't we have tbe same." There is no doubt that tbey can but it is something that takes more initiative, more resourcefuiness than it does languauge of culture. The separatists daiîm that if they don't get what they, want they will seceed from Canada. Where would this leave tbem?: Hardiy in a better position' because tbey would have then cut any ties that couid bave been of benefit to themn. Tbey wauld become an outsider to Canada and after al the Province of Ontario wlith its population and purchasing power can be a great boom for Quebac. The separatist can only find bis place tbrougb co-operation and witb aggressive action and thought. Let the separatist build rather than pull the rest off Canada dawn ta its leve l.
