As I see it, there were five basic objectives outlined in the Throne Speech which, together, will help Canada and its people prepare for the challenges and benefits of the approaching 21st century/ To begin with, our business and industry will become more competitive competitive as we move into a global economy through increased trade with the U.S. and other nations. To do this, we must become more self-reliant and receptive to new techologies and other innovations. By building on our strengths and having management and a work force as well as legislation that is flexible, we can react to such changes and derive the fullest advantage advantage from them. In this next decade and beyond, government and the private sector will be invèsting in our human resources, through training people and re-training where necessary so that they can be matched to new job opportunities. A third priority is protection of our environment which, this past year has demonstrated beyond Question, faces challenges o'f, unprecedented unprecedented magnitude. New legislation will improve water quality, quality, with particular attention to the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River basin. Other measures will improve the air we breathe and safeguard our planet's* ozone layer. Pressure will continue for an effective acid rain agreement with the, U.S., probably more achievable now with the ne\y Bush administration • in Washington. As a caring and compassionate society, Canadians will be looking at ways to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our social programs. programs. We must ensure we're getting getting the best value for money spent and that adequate assistance is provided provided for those who most need it. A national child care program will be. created. These social programs arc valued by the federal government as by all Canadians. Perhaps ironically, dial's why ihe fifth objective' spelled spelled mu in the Throne Speech -- by Barbara Weese, R.O.

We have to ensure that our nation can afford to maintain and to enhance the quality of these pro- V grams in,the years ahead. . During the 1970's and the 1980's the federal government spent much more than it took in. That accumulated accumulated debt or deficit has now grown so large that just paying the annual interest charges uses more than 30 cents of every dollar the government collects. That leaves only about 69 cents to pay for all government programs! One doesn't need to be an economist to understand that problem problem and what must be done about it. We have to reduce government spending and borrowing, and to begin living within our means. Although the government has managed to reduce the annual federal deficit by $10 billion, further further cuts in spending obviously must be made to bring about a balance between our income and expenditures. expenditures. With that will come a stronger national economy that can support • those social and other government • programs which we cherish. During the winter project, Working Working With Wool - From Fleece to yarn, the 4-H members each made a knitted article plus studied all aspects of wool production. Each club was under the direction of 1 or 2 volunteer leaders. This project also relied heavily on the assistance of many community helpers to teach the knitting skills required. At the Achievement program each 4-H club will be displaying their project, as well as, presenting a program of skits and exhibits to show what they learned in this project. project.
