The Citizenship medal is in recognition of Mr. Emmerson's development of innovative techniques for teaching scuba diving to young, physically handi- capped people. Mr. Emmerson's teaching of scuba to the handicapped has attracted national and international attention over the past year or so, was the subject of a feature length film shown on television, and earned him Diver of the Year honours at a recent "convention in Boston, Mass. Working with yqung people at the Bloorview Children's Hospital in Toronto, Mr. Emmerson, 30, adapted diving techniques to their specific physical handicaps and five of his students so far have received recognized certificates from the National Association of Underwater Instructors. His 'work with the handicapped continues, and suba clubs as far away as Hawaii have expressed interest in the teaching methods. The Ontario Citizenship Medal was established by the provincial government in 1973 for "citizens whose exceptional actions outside their regular vocations have contributed to the well being of fellow citizens." The silver medal is designed by Toronto sculpter Gerald Gladstone.
