eee ER SAE OFS Se I ee aE STE ER SET ON EE rN Traffic cop Midland police officers directed traffic at in- tersections last Wednesday afternoon while Winter live- in program not cancelled The winter. education program at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons will continue without interrup- tion. Ontario's minister of tourism and recreation, and local MPP Ken Black, made the announcement last Friday. "Sufficient funds have been found within the Ministry's budget to ensure these important programs will continue," Minister of Tourism and Recreation Hugh O'Neil said by press release. "I am pleased to make this announcement because it means students from 31 schools can con- tinue to take advantage of this excellent and unique program." The winter education program' cancellation resulted in a hue and cry here. Black earlier last week said he had been briefed by the Friends of Sainte-Marie, and that he was taking with him to his meeting with O'Neil, let- ters from disappointed teachers and other sup- porters of the progam. On Friday by press release Black said, "These winter education programs are a cornerstone of Huronia's education system. It means students from across the province who have been preparing for a long time to visit Sainte-Marie among the Hurons can do so and ex- perience a part of Ontario's past not available in the classroom." The live-in progtam held in February and March at Sainte-Marie is booked in- to 1990. Students and their teachers live for three days in reconstructed houses of Jesuit priests who lived here among the Hurons in the 1600s. The students make their own 17th cen- tury utensils, eat food eaten by people of that time and place, and cook and heat with open fire. Single day activities are offered too. The program gives elementary and high school students the chance to experience the challenges of missionary life in the 17th century and imparts an awareness of Native culture and lifestyle. The program was cut as part of a general constraint policy within the ministry. A review was ordered after O'Neil learned the winter program would be af- fected, the ministry press release stated.
