Tay Township condemns bilingualism Recently, Ontario Premier Bill Davis urged Canadians in this province to speak up for a Canada in trouble and to tackle the unfinished business of nation-building. The Premier made his remarks at a combined meeting of London area service. clubs. Tay township council apparently has taken the Premier's message literally. Last Thursday during its regular session, the council passed a resolution which condemns bilingualism in general and the decision to build the new French high school in Penetanguishene. Tay township deputy-reeve Bruce Tinney presented the motion to council for adoption. It was passed by a 3-1 vote, with one abstention. The resolution will now be circulated to area municipalities. Neither Victoria Harbour council, nor Midland council dealt with the Tay resolution at their Monday sessions. Last summer Tay township council circulated a resolution supporting the Simcoe county board of education's original decision not to build a French school in Penetang. That resolution received con- siderable support from municipal councils in Simcoe county. Penetanguishene council endorsed it 5-3 at the height of the French school controversy. CEC listed 140 jobs PAY Through Sunday afternoon during Open House Marie-among-the-Hurons at Ste. visitors to the site saw how the lift- locks operated for canoes. ; J French school cost doubled An interim report presented by the Ministry of Education has pegged the cost of the new French- language high school in Penetang at $986,160. This is almost double the original figure indicated by Education Minister Bette Stephenson last month. A gymnasium and library account for the ad- ditional $486,000. The facilities will be designed in such a manner as to allow additions if needed. Units can also be easily removed, as well. At a special meeting of the Simcoe county board in Barrie last week, John Storey, director of the Ministry of Education's Central Ontario region, underlined the joint negotiating committee's main priorities at this stage. The chief "urgencies", Storey said, are the Staffing of a principal for the separate unit, ac- curate enrolment figures for staffing purposes and building considerations. A minimum of four teaching units will be built. Another three modular units will be provided for specialized areas. The present design can accommodate 220 students. Ecole Secondaire Penetanguishene Secondary School will maintain its present status as a bilingual entity next year. The $986,000 figure is based upon current prices for "modular re-locatable buildings." The site has not yet been chosen by the joint committee and the cost of purchasing or leasing land is not included in the current estimates. The Ministry of .Education will foot the bill for any additional land required for the new school. The Simcoe county board of education reiterated its position not to fund more than 5 per cent of the original half-million dollar proposal. That's $25.000. Any additional capital funds will be borne by the provincial education department. Advertisements for a principal and an unspecified number of teachers have been placed in selected media. Simcoe county teachers have also been notified the board is accepting transfer requests. aaa ces ee me Mc .
