Adventists Planning 'Stop Smoking' Program Ontario's Minister ot Citizenship and Culture called for citizens to work together towards a secure future for this province. "If we take a little bit of time to be concerned one to the next, our future is very secure," said Susan Fish, MPP for the riding of St. George in Toronto and the representative responsible for citizenship and culture in the Ontario cabinet. The Minister was speaking speaking at the annual Ladies' Night banquet held by the Bowmanville Men's Canadian Canadian Club last Wednesday, April 4. The guest speaker pointed out that the citizenship citizenship side of her ministry works towards settling newcomers newcomers in Ontario. Many come from lands where government government is regarded as oppressive oppressive to the people rather than a servant of the public. Some need help to learn a new language. For new Canadians, the Ministry offers programs such as orientation activities activities and courses in English English as a second language. And yet, the Ministry works hard to ensure that new Ontario citizens will not lose their cultural identity. identity. "We work so that people who come here can understand that this is a land that celebrates differences differences that people have," Ms. Fish said. When she talks of moving to Canada, the minister speaks from first-hand experience experience because she was ' born in South America and educated in the U.S., before choosing this country as home. In describing the relationship relationship between the cultures cultures and languages which make up Canada, Ms. Fish suggested that the term "mosaic" which is commonly commonly used may be the wrong word. Such a word suggests a culture which is static and made up of individual cells locked into their own place. Susan Fish sees the country not as a mosaic but as a woven tapestry in which each strand is unique and yet all contribute to the overall design. No single strand is alone. "We can learn from each other if we are not landed in language or cultural ghettos," she said. Speaking of the cultural side of her ministry, Ms. Fish explained that artifacts, artifacts, museums, galleries, theatres, fairs, symphony orchestras, ' choirs, and many other programs help us to treasure life in Ontario Ontario from both the past and the present. This fact is especially clear in 1984 as Ontario celebrates its bicentennial. "We are celebrating a living living history -- 200 years of growth in this province -- 200 years of living together," together," she said. She added that Ontario's cultural activities depend to a great deal on the work of volunteers. Government just couldn't afford to pay for the work that these unpaid unpaid citizens accomplish. And yet, she suggested that we wouldn't want to live in a world where people only did things for the reward of a pay cheque. "The best way for us to look ahead for another 200 years is for people in the community to be prepared to stand up and be counted," Ms. Fish said. The guest speaker was introduced introduced by Durham East MPP Sam Cureatz, who pointed out that co-inciden- tally the Minister represents represents the same St. George riding held by Allan Lawrence Lawrence during his career in the Ontario Legislature. Rev. Joe LaFave, of the Enniskillen United Church, thanked the speaker.

Johnson is concerned that shift workers, housewives and others may be able to attend so is now offering a morning program. Each session will be approximately un hour and a half long, and there will be a $10 charge for materials. Over the past 20 years this plan has been one of the most successful in helping smokers kick the habit, says Johnson. It presents a positive, wholis- tic approach which deals with the psychological as well as physiological addiction to smoking. Diet, exercise and a positive approach to life in general cause Adventists to be somewhat somewhat healthier than other people, Johnson says, This has been emphasized recently in several popular periodicals. It has been discovered that people following the life-style taught by Seventh-day Adventists Adventists live a few years longer than other people on an average basis. "Many people have been impressed by the way we have been living for the past hundred years," observes Johnson. "We would like to share our insights with the rest of the community." The Adventists Church is currently conducting a stress- control clinic ut7:30p.m, each Tuesday. Future seminars will be on vegetarian and natural foods cookery, and Health Secrets of the Bible.
