This person was Organize Continued from page 5 heard; but, when the major- ity speaks get behind your leadership 100 percent" Unity is our greatest strength -- division will permit nothing to be done. Also, I suggest what is needed from us all now is a good old fashioned dose of "civic responsibility". We people of Scugog are quick to point out to the rest of the world, what a great place .we have;-but, civic respons- ibility demands that we do not remain passive, but join in action when we are need- ed. It is my hope that these words are received in the spirit in which they are written, not as a lecture; but, as a vocalization of what I feel most of us feel. I urge everyone to support the proven B.I.A. Associa- tion, as the leadership means, to give us a beauti- ful,.revitalized Port Perry. W.A. (Bil) Lock told by 'a policeman not to walk on the road. I under- stand the policeman's con- cern, but I also understand the citizen not being able to safely walk our sidewalks. It is time we had a bylaw that requires residents to clean their sidewalks, for: all our ""'walkers". I suggest if property owners do not clean their sidewalks that the town does it for them and the charge be added to their property business is to re-enact that bylaw before something happens to one of our citi- zens that we'll all regret. I would also like to see more sand put down, by the town, on the main streets when they are icy and there- fore dangerous to- all pedestrians.

IT would suggest towing their cars away and charging them £50.00. ) I also think the build-up of ice on the side walks is very bad in "front of the post office", in fact all along both sides of the main street. I often wondered if it is not difficult for some Senior Citizens to make it into the post office, I have 'seen wheel chairs going in to the Post Offices in Port Perry. I sould not want to try it.

Your jobshould have safe, . healthy working conditions. Ontario's job isto see that you get them. Take a minute now to think about HEDGE KG SE ONE a0 yA # es 5 yourself and your work situation. Your job "satisfaction and good health are important to you, your employer-and the productivity of Ontario's economy. Safe and healthy workers are better > workers, and concerned, well-informed employers are better employers. That's why your Ontario Government has established the Occupational Health and Safety Division within the Ontario Ministry of Labour. The Division communicates and works with employers and employees-alike, encouraging all concerned to do 4 . everything possible to prevent injury or illness in the workplace. It does this by: ® conducting regular programs of inspections and audits to ensure compliance with the legislation; ® providing advisory, consultative and technical services on health and safety matters; ® prometing internal labour-management responsibility for maintaining a safe and healthy workplace; reviewing proposed plans for new projects in the pre-development stages to avoid "building in" potential hazards. The new Division is dedicated to the control and elimination of occupational health and safety hazards with ongoing research, educational programs and -- if need be -- corrective action when cooperation doesn't work. A booklet spelling out in detail the activities of the Occupational Health and Safety Division is being distributed to employers. If you would like a copy, contact your nearest Ministry of Labour office. And work in good health!
