This would affect the cost of wholesale power supplied to municipal utilities and to some 100 large industrial customers next year. The proposal has been submitted to the Minister of Energy for review this summer by the Ontario Energy Board. In making the announcement Mr. Taylor said, "The proposed increase is considered the minimum to cover costs and to avoid further deterioration of Ontario Hydro's financial soundness. It assumes a continuing high level of profitable export sales and continued high costs resulting from locked in power at the Bruce nuclear generating station." The actual increase in the wholesale cost of power supplied to Ontario's 332 municipal utilities will differ in each case, depending on individual demand, energy use and supply conditions, but will average 9.9 per cent.

Job and career changes are becoming more frequent. And Canadians are moving from city to city more often than ever before. To draw attention to the resulting need for greater day- to-day emotional support in our lives, the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) is asking us to "hug someone you love today" during 1978 mental health week (April 30th - May 6th). According to the Canadian Mental Health Association, emotionally healthy adults. During International Year of the Child, the Canadian Mental Health Association will be asking parents to consider wbether their family life is meeting their children's emotional and developmental needs. Have you hugged your child today? A simple hug can demonstrate affection and support. That could mean a lot to a neglected child. Other children may need a few quiet moments a day to talk with parents preoccupied by business or social affairs. Sometimes what's missing is a common activity that family members can all share during evenings or weekends. We should be finding ways to recreate the bonds of community that used to grow from more stable neighbourhoods, churches and schools. We should be looking at the plans of government, business and other organizations to judge their potential impact on Canadian families. During International Year of the Child, more than 50,000 Canadian marriages will end in divorce -- creating tens of thousands of single-parent families. Yet Canada's 300,00 single-parent families already have three times as many pre- school children as there are Orono Public School Displays Students' Exhi bits places in our daycare facilities. Volunteers at Work During 1979 the Canadian Mental Health Association will be stepping up its activities in communities across Canada to try to prevent mental and emotional problems before they occur and to meet the emotional needs of children and adults who need support. In Newfoundland parents will be encouraged to attend CMHA parents' problem seminars where family troubles can be discussed with other parents and professional counsellors. Family life education programs -- pioneered by the Quebec division of the Association -- will spread into new communities across Canada. In Ottawa mental health volunteers will be working to establish a primary school counselling project to identify and assist children with potential emotional problems. Children in Winnipeg will be learning to develop interpersonal skills and a sense of their own self-worth through a program conducted by CMHA. In Alberta children whose parents have received psychiatrie treatment will attend a CMHA play program and a family camping weekend. If you have a child to care for, take a moment to think about whether his or her day- to-day emotional needs are being met. And if you'd like more information about children's mental health, or other mental health issues, contact your local branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association.
