Apparently the Toronto Board of Education found the deal too good to pass up and so they handed over the rights to Pepsi for a $1.14â€"million cheque. It‘s really a pretty cheap price to pay when you consider this exposes Pepsi to their market audience in a captive setting...talk about a marketer‘s dream. It also gives the company a legâ€"up on Coke in that it could make lifeâ€"long Pepsi drinkers out of these students before Coke gets their shot. The marketing types at Pepsi are no fools. Their latest crusade is to have Lo lgde m o4 s ind c CA CCC COs es es t But here in Halton, it seems we‘re too smart for that kind of obvious capiâ€" talism. E.J. James principal Al Greyson sent out sheets to area parents explaining the Pepsi proposal and many parents were against the deal. The result was that the soft drink conglomerate was out on its ear. But don‘t think this kind of thing will go away. Pepsi was only following the lead of other companies who have seen the value in tapping the school market. The use of Macintosh computer equipment at River Oaks School comes to mind. The facility has been written about intensely ever since Macintosh said it would supply the equipment to the thenâ€"new school if it could evaluate the effectiveness of the machines and computer programs. It was a pretty good deal for everyone concerned but then computers are so clean, so silent, so...today. As for Pepsi? Well, pop machines are messy, they don‘t teach our youth anything, then there‘s the diet component and what about all those cans to be recycled..... It seems to us that what the Pepsi crowd needs to do is come up with a new highâ€"tech approach. Maybe a computerized pop machine? Wait for it. anadians used to be referred to as the most savingsâ€"conscious people in the world. Statisticians used to love to point out how much money we all had stashed away in banks. We were, and the critical word here is were, a frugal lot. It‘s somehow all tied up with Canadian currency. That‘s another thing Canadians do well and is rarely appreciated by the great unwashed masses of this great land. We make great money...not only for ourselves but for governments around the world. The Royal Canadian Mint, ah, there‘s an institution as solid as Perce rock, as Canadian as, well, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. When you have nothing to do for a few minutes some time, take out your walâ€" let, we recommend pay day, and take a close look at what you see. Canadian money is simply great. The colors make spotting denominations a cinch and the artwork on both sides is outstanding, not only that but thanks to new technology, it‘s virtually impossible to counterfeit bills from $20 to $100. Perhaps it‘s this love of money that makes any change to our currency so gutâ€" wrenching. Remember the outâ€"pouring of emotion when our $1 bill was scrapped for the Loonie? We survived as did Canadian municipalities which took the occaâ€" sion to up parkmg fees to $1 . Nice work ND L <B sc c un c d nc But looming on the horizon, dear coin fanciers, is a new and more important currency issue. Last year a private member‘s bill in the House of Commons, would have seen the end to the venerable Canadian penny, the cent, the ‘copper‘. Say it isn‘t so! Like most such bills, this one died a hasty death on the Commons floor but it does give one pause. Would the historic ‘nickel‘ follow? Then we could kill the quarter and round all prices off giving the phrase, ‘buddy can you spare a dime? new meaning. Kerrigan?

A look back at the events that made headlines in Oakville. 30 years ago Wearing little more than a smile, the males dashed through the crowded plaza and left most shoppers laughing. Both covered their faces with ski masks, and wore the streakers‘ traditional running shoes. Their accessories varied, with one sporting a bowâ€"tie and the other a belt. "There was going to be a girl with us, but she chickâ€" ened out," said one of the streakers, who wished to be only identified as Jeff. e ind ie The pair, who were wearing overcoats, were ariven by a friend to an entrance near a flower shop in the Pmd oi EW S p ut " s mall.
