Robert Bourdeau is one of the nms paradoxical land- scape' photographers in Canada. The gelatin silver contact prints from his view camrera contain immense vistas crackling with energy in aIl four- corners. When he chooses the bare.landscapeof the southwestern United States like Utah and Arizona <1973 and 1976) the images are sparse and austere. Places like Canada's Muiskoka, which hie isited in the late 1970s, Giatineau Park (1965) or thie Word sworthIlian Engla'nd (1975 and 1980) are richi and lushd. But it is not the imiagery which mnatters as miuch as his perception, especially of flhe structure of the land and its, comnplexity.

The vote carried 7 opposed to 5 in fayour. The Board was dealing with an admniistration report which did support the institu- tion of Junior Kindergarten in 1985. Matiy trustees argued that the extra cost was just too much ofa financial burden. Donna Fairey, Bowmnan- ville trustee, stated "We just doni't have the money, period." Fairey said she believed in Junior Kindergarten but that the board had niot planned for the facility. She said if the board wanted to proceed they should be -putting mioney aside to build up a fund for the facility. Bill Carman, Ward 3 Town of Newcastle trustee, said hie could flot support ant expeni- diture of $1 million for the kindergarten when there are many other priorities. A recent report noted that start up costs would amouint to somte $1 million in the first year of which amounit the province wou 0Li1d pay L000. In the second hiait 0"e initial year the board's costs would amnourit to $71 ,000. The report also pointed out that in the second year the board costs would amounit to some $20,000. in speaking with Bob Wilsher, a Ward 3 trustee, hie said he voted against imi- plementation of the Junior Kindergarten program due to cost and that such money would have to comne fromt uther programns inow, within the systemn or through a con- siderable increase in taxation at the local level. In the main trustees from the western area were in op- position to the proposai while thos<e from the eastern and central area were in support of 'the proposai. Carol Anderson, a representative of the Association of Early Childhfiood Education, presented a report pointing out that the private sector already provided a ý,ssem of day care and nursery schools that are in some ways better than that which would be provided through the Board of Eduication. Anderson noted there were 17 pre-school centres operating within the board's jurisdiction providing a ser- vice f'or 700 ch:ilidreni. She said ,ýlas.s sîzes are smnaller and as wefl child-staff ratio wýas lower.
