HOME COMFORT For All Of Your PETROLEUM REQUIREMENTS and 24 Hour Complete Heating Service in Port Perry EMERGENCY SERVICE Day or Night - Phone 985-2572 Furnaces - Air Conditioning - Boilers a police officer's safety is unexpected attack by gun- wielding assailants, the Ontario Government decided a year ago, that protective vests should be made avail- able to all police officers in Ontario. } Naturally, we wanted the best possible protection for the men and women who serve us so ably. As a result, a committee of police offic- ials was formed to recom- mend a set of standards to the Ontario Police Commis- sion which would not only ensure maximum protection but also comfort. Once these standards were established, the Ontario Police Commission sent questionnaires to all munici- pal and regional police forces to determine how many of the protective vests would be needed. It was decided that Ontario Provincial Police officers vests will be about $3.6 mil- lion, of which the province's share will be $2.3 million. Tenders were subsequen- tly called and after careful screening, an Ontario-based speciality textile manufac- _turer located in Cambridge was awarded the contract to produce 15,000 vests. This firm's bid was the lowest consistent with the highest quality vest possible. Another Ontario company based in Metro Toronto is working with the Cambridge firm to fit and distribute the vests. Unlike former protective equipment, the new vests are thin, light and designed to be worn under an officer's clothes. They are also extremely resilient being made from a rosin and fibre compound which pound-for- standards of protection are both by the suppliers and by an independent testing agency, the Ontario Re- search Foundation, in con- junction with a ballistics expert from the Ontario Centre of Forensic Sciences. Although the wearing of soft-body armour is not compulsory, it is hoped that as many officers as possible will choose to take advan- tage of this protection while on investigative or patrol duties. We believe the dedicated men and women who provide Ontarians with one of the highest levels of police pro- tection anywhere in the world, in turn deserve the highest standards of protec- tion so that they can continue to carry out their duties as effectively as possible.

Ontario Provincial Police statistics show 47 people were killed in traffic accidents in January down from 61 in the corresponding month last year. Since more than 1800 licences had been tempor- arily suspended by Ontario Provincial Police, regional and metropolitan forces to the end of January, obviously a great many people who could have caused an accident, fatal or otherwise, were prevented from driving. .As there have been no formal complaints to the Ontario Police Commission or any. of the province's police forces about the li- cence suspension procedure, it appears the new legisla- BLACKSTOCK PHONE 986-4201 -Air Cleaners - Humidifiers pound jt five times as strong tion has been universally PORT PERRY PHONE 985-7363 Bi pyrite Sted a5» pesessiry safety on Ontario's highway. mon) be NR ES RR A RRS ass i Tl, CARRE I Er Sin SY SF
