Translate that across the sector as a whole and there are 750,000 woman managers in independent business. There is more. While 82 per cent of the firrns which re' sponded to the survey employ ~wornen in somte capacity, more than 56 per cent have one woman in management and almost one-quarter have more than one. The resulîs are even more împressive considering that 80 pet cent of CFIB mnembers employ 15 or fewer people, giving individual managers greater say in thie 'business. "Ah., buit," say the skep- CAV Simms Roosa-Master Cummins tics, "Surely this is a because hubby hires the wife 10 manage the books or wxhatever. li's flot real clout." Well, there are no doubt many cases of husband and wife working together, but il says here that makes no differ- enice. The spouse who's han- dling the books, or inventory, or supervising the hired help hias as tnuch, if not more, on lier shoulders than many cor- porate managers whose every move is prescribed by bureau- cratic decree. The numnbers, too, belie the "wývife syndrome" explana- lion.

To put up with illegal parking, leav- ing unlicensed vehicles and even ones without motors in themi on the streets overnight, somte for many weeks, somre for mionths should flot be cry- ing - ,it is disgraceful, an eyesore and they are breaking the law. Some of those complaining and wishing to use the streets as 'parking areas should understand that those with their own dr iveways and garages are paying taxes on this space for parking. Try your best 10 procure some space, use your own driveway or don't buy a house with room forcone car when you want two or more vehicles. The concerns of many Orono residents who wish the sreets cleared - safety for our children, enterinig and exiting of driveways, guests to- park and visit, to make driving safer - we do flot want an obstacle course. The hy -Idw enforcement r'fficer and Regionai Police have the authority to enforce and should do their job, and it be accepted. If the Iaw cannot be carried out, (some wish 10 have it repealed) then the once lovely litIle village will degenerate very rapidly withi derelict cars, tractor trailers, buses, trucks wvithout imotors, a massive, distastefuil collection in our residentia1.gscas. 1 am sincere, Orono Resident. of the employed women have management duties. But in companies with 100 to 499 esnployees, 52.2 per cent of employed women are m anagers or supervisors. They can't ail be the owner's wife. These statisties back up other research by Statistics Canada which shows that the number of women who own their owvn businesses grew from il per cent in the mid- 1960s 10 30 per cent by 1981. It's apparent that women today are prepared to make their own way, stepping mbt management positions in small and medium-sized firms and in many cases running their own show. It's happening without fanfare, without the need for government interven- tion designed 10 help women specifically. So next time you're about tc ask a womnan who's the boss, think twice. Chances are you're looking ai her. CF/B Feavule Serice Inspection Station Ail Vehicle-s including Dump Trucks Sohool Buses Propane Conversions and Service MANGAR'SÀpl-
