The Minister replied that working to rule can potentially lead to “damage and jeopardy for the rounded educational program of students". She said this was partly the reason the Ministry’s recently apâ€" pointed external review committee had been asked to examine the province's right to strike legislation for teachers. HUMAN RIGHTS While the Liberal Party was pleased to see the Government finally move toward granting rights for disabled, our support for such legislation was contingent upon discussing the matter with representatives of disabled persons‘ groups. We met with the Ontario Federation for the Physically Han~ dicapped‘ which represents some 39 dif~ ferent associations for disabled people - in~ He called for action “to ensure that students may participate in athletic competition in Ontario regardless of whether there are sanctions in force.“ We also asked the Minister if the govem- ment “condones the possible threat of sanc- tions or blacklising“ of coaches who took part in a basketball tournament in which a North York team. coached by a student because of the workâ€"toâ€"rule. took part. However. the Minister said it's “up to the parties to end the dispute in Brant, to find the solution to their problems with the assistance which can be provided through the Educational Relations Commission' ’. The Liberals urged the government to do so before the Legislature adjourned for the Christmas break. While the details of such a scheme have not yet been worked out, it would have to be carried out in conjunction with widespread use of the “Alert†portable breathalyzer machines which are used by police to determine whether a driver should be taken to the station for a test on a breathalyzer. which is capable of giving more accurate readings TEACHERS‘ STRIKES According to the Minister of Education. the province still has no intention of imposing, compulsory arbitration to end disputes between teachers and Boards of Education in North York and Brant County. Anyone given such an oneâ€"the-spo! suspension would have to make his or her own way home, and the car (plus licence) would be returned 24 hours later. LICENCE SUSPENSIONS The Attorney-General has told the Legislature's justice committee that he is considering giving policemen the discretion to hand out 24-hour licence suspensions to drivers who have been drinking.

During the course of the dispute. the union president pleaded guilty in the Supreme Court of Ontario to contempt to defying a court injunction which forbade prison guards to strike. Both sides have agreed to a list of six arbitrators, in- cluding the current mediator. We recommend that the government not bring forward Bill 188 for second reading and produce instead a proper amendment to the Human Rights Code. PRISON GUARD STRIKE After an illegal strike which lasted two and a half days, the Province‘s 3,000 prison guards have voted 70 per cent in favor of a tentative settlement which would send the key issue in the dispute - a separate bargaining unit for the guards ~ to binding arbitration. cluded in I Human Ri rather than subject of legislation. Above and beyond these problems. the Federation is unhappy with the whole idea of having a separate Bill for the handicapped, believing such a policy to be discriminatory. The Liberal Party accepts the view of disabled people that they should be in- cluded in the Ontario Human Rights Code rather than made the subject of separate It also establishes yet another government office for handicapped people which the Federation believes will have a dubious advocacy role and could simply create more confusing red tape for disabled people. Specifically. it does not completely prohibit discrimination against handicapped persons in the very crucial areas of employment, housing. pension and insurance schemes. and provision of services. cluding the Canadian Hearing Society, the Ontario Society for Crippled Children and the March of Dimes. Their opinion was unanimous: Bill 188. as it is written now, has a number of serious weaknesses. He said the government is letting the permanent disposal issue cool down after the recent dispute in Mississauga over ministry plans to burn PCBs in a converted cement plant. Liberal Leader Stuart Smith pointed out that financing public interest groups for the hearings is essential "to make sure we're not just told what a great thing it is while citizens‘ groups sit by not knowing the right questions to ask". The Minister was at- tacked by Opposition Members for his refusal to assist public interest groups in preparing their cases for the hearings. He indicated that he wants to avoid “protracted debate" and that people should learn to trust the Ministry‘s employees. 0L|NED WORK PANTS diseases. and birth defects. MEN'S DEPT.
