All of the artisans attended art school at some point in their career, and two have received recognition for their work in the form of awards. Namely Carol Snider, who won an Edee Award for her macrame, and Judy Briggs, who also received an Edee Award along with another from the Canadian Guild of Crafts for her jewellry. In an age of plastic conformity and assem- bly line art, the full time skilled artisan has become something of a rarity. The result is, of course, a lack of originality in so much of what is on sale, and gift buying becomes something of a labor. It is certainly reassuring to know of eight such artisans whose love for their work is reflected in its quality, imagination, and orig- inality. L] Payment enclosed UBill me later The artisans are financially independent, not relying on outside subsidies of any kind. They come together under one roof by chance, one after the other, usually as a result of chance meetings at various art shows. Formerly, their studio was the red portable church at Leslie and Finch Streets, which they were subsequently informed was zoned residential.

In an international release last month, I was surprised and disappointed to find that among industrialized nations in the free world, Canadians are now seventh in per capita productivity. It was not long ago that the same survey showed we were second in the world, just behind the United States. Now we are still behind the U.S., but we are also behind such coun- tries as West Germany, Nor- way, Switzerland, Denmark Funds will come out of the commission's 1973 operating budget. The tender for the tires went to B. and M. Motors Ltd., RR 2, Gormley, at a price of $3,633.17. It was the lowest of three tenders of- fered and included installing, balancing, and sales tax. The other prices were $4,018.28 from Dave‘s East End Gulf of Stouffville, and $4,447.70 from Conlin Motors Ltd., of Markham, Embarrassed by this sad performance. Finance De- partment officials were quick to come up with other fig- ures that tended to show a better picture. They said the average worker was ahead 7c 3 week, Some gain even at that! Judging from comments throughout the riding, I be- lieve officialdom will have a hard time convincing the average resident that all is well. They sense something is wrong and figures are start- ing to prove that they are right. Over $15,000 in tenders were let out by York Region Police Commission Tuesday night of last week. The tenders involved pur- chase of 88 winter tires, a video tape recorder, two new cars, and a natural gas-oper- ated standby generator. Inflation, without doubt, is the main concern of most residents in York Simcoe. Some are quite bewildered with rising prices. Many feel that nothing much can be done but they know it is hurting their standard of living. Police Commission Purchases 88 Snow Tires, Plus Two Cars Since Parliament recessed I have had an opportunity to call on certain homes in the riding and to chat with con- stituents. This feeling was borne out by Statistics Canada last week which reported that labor income in Canada for the year ending last July. rose at a slower rate than inflation. Based on their fig- ures, the $100 per week man last year needed $107.70 this year to keep abreast with inflation. In fact. however, his income lagged at $107.47 in 1973. The average person had 23c a week less buying power this year than last. A tender for two new, un- marked police cars went to Lawton Bros.. Aurora, for $4,581.08. This included a trade-in of two 1972 vehicles plus immediate delivery. It was the low tender of three submitted. The others were $4,994.76 from H. A. McLean Ltd., Aurora, and $5,440.70 from Richmond Hill Chrysler Dodge. Three tenders for a stand- by natural gas-operated gen- erator were requested but only one received. This amounted to $5,415 from Smith-Long Eastern Ltd., of Toronto. A video tape pack recorder to be primarily used for police traffic safety educa- tion purposes in the schools will be purchased from Eddie Black Limited of Don Mills for the low tender price of $2.191.36. This latter tender approval came over the objections of commission member Stewart E} "‘32, SINCLAIR. STEVENS MP k YORK SIMCOE Trudeau Makes Decisions In Isolation SINCLAIR STEVENS REPORTS Ottawa often leaves you with the feeling that they make plans and that they take decisions as if the rest of the world did not exist. They are consumed with reg- ional disparities, the trans- ferring of income from one to another and with make- work projects within the country. But rarely do they appear to realize that the entire nation is sinking on a man-to-man basis when com- pared with the rest of the world. In an interdependent world, it is essential that Canadians be given the leadership through their federal govem- ment to maximize our inter- national position. Our econ- omy is slightly over $100 bil- lion. The world economy is $4 trillion, approximately forty times bigger. There is great potential in that mar- ket. We have 2.5% of it today. The Americans have 28.2%. and Western Europe has 25.2%. Some nations such as Japan. however, have grown within the world mar- ket at a phenomenal rate. They now account for 7.3% of the total world GNP Japan's GNP is now greater than the rest of Asia com- bined. But the point is, we have been losing groundâ€"certain- ly relatiVe to such countries as West Germany and Japan. For example, in Fortune’s list of the largest 100 corpora- tions outside the U.S.A., Japan now leads the list with 22 and West Germany is sec- ond with 19, while Britain in third with 18. Canada has only three. Those countries which have been- winning the world race have done so with a unique blend of private enterprise working in close harmony with their governments. Na- tional economic plans are laid after consultation among and Sweden Canada has a good stake in the world. Our 2.5% com- pares with 2% for the whole of Africa and our GNP is half of all of Latin America’s. 1973 is the 15th Anniversary ofa Canadian Achievement. The last weld on the initial TransCanada system was completed on October 10, 1958, fifteen years ago. Since 1958 our sales have grown at the average rate of 15’? per year, and we've built the equivalent of two more complete pipeline systems. This year we will transport over one trillion cubic feet of natural gas. Over 95' ? of our outstanding comman shares are held by residents of Canada. ’ TransCanada PipeLines industry, labor and the gov- ernment. Goals are set and all work to achieve the agreed objective. In today’s modern world, Canada needs such a program. In Japan, the government forecast three years ago that their GNP for 1975 would be $546 billion. They set their rate of annual growth at 14.7%. So far they are attain- ing it. In Canada, we cannot get the government this year to tell us what to expect next year, let alone in 1975. The impact of this drift is shown in our currency reval- uations. Since 1967, the Can- adian dollar has gone up 8% in relation to the U.S. dollar, while the West German mark has jumped 70%; the Swiss franc 53%; and the Japanese yen 38%.
