League playoffs are us- ing a new format this year based on school enrolment. Schools are divided by size: A, AA, AAA, and AAAA. Sports such as Cross Coun- try, Swimming, Track and Field, Wrestling, Nordic and Alpine Skiing, Curling, Gymnastics and Badminton run championships that in- clude all school sizes across Ontario in the same com- petition. Athletes compete against each other regardless of the size of the school. With Girls' Hockey the breakdown is divided into two categories: A/AA and AAA/AAAA. In the A/AA category Acton finished first in the County followed by Aldershot, St. Thomas Aqui- nas, Pearson and Milton.

Continued from page 7 the ship building industry. McGuinty, and those who share his view, that by en- abling Nova Scotia or Newfoundland to benefit from their resources and make some headway in catching up to the vast wealth of Ontario, is unfair to On- tario, must also admit that the policies such as the 1912 ex- pansion of Ontario, the wartime and post war investments, and the autopact was unfair to the _other provinces. Either all actions ben- efitting one province more than another are harmful and wrong or not. In the overall context of national policy the off-shore agreement is fair either as a means of build- ing a stronger Canada through building more financially independent prov- inces or as equalization to those provinces for the benefits On- tario has received from federal government policies.
