Whatlthi a s--to barrow a p)hrae caied by CBC TV reorer . i i.yo&?sgusa Thit oeuld mou boere, as it doms in the -CBC, that the roporter hant remarched pat the nearest bar. ýAnd'tii. gueuses ho got thore wore unprodictable. So lie emerged without elghemet Be that as it may, wo forthwith put forth several guesses. Legilatian expectod: >The Equial Haunework Law, te be known as EHL. (Givo em niEH[4people.) This% Igetthe 9My This will make bath wife and husband equally responible for housework anywhere ini the province of Ontario. Iaitially this wil caver anldy familes (or equivalent> with bath spouses working ful turne outside the home. This mains, get this guys, dishes, laundiy, vacuuming, cooking, scrubbing fonr, shopping, even.cenn h toilet bowl. Cin you imagine someone doing a job flke that? Uh For those males who dabble ini such activities now, ho wanned: da bbling won't ho enough. -Expct the laws to specitfr fifty-fifty, or / our-forhour equivalents. 4- (WatCb the, equivalents factor. Say someane of female persuasion spenda six hours a week folding Iaundry. Then say a Male equivalent spends six.hours folding Iaundry at half.time duning weekend football gaines. Rie folds haif a lcad. The law will specify thepricipe c eqivaents: on a load-for-load bais. Guys could end "'upe foldof laurafo about five hours for every one that thefr spouses d. ot it, guys?) Who sets the standards? What the law want. say is who sets the standards ia the household. And will that member ho able te count up tinie checking for dut on the mantel and fIod crust on the silverware as part of the contribution? Guesi who, guesa who. The law alsa won't caver gardening, car washing, garbage detail, car repaira, doit-yourself appliance repairs, and, any work, no matter how onerous, requiring tunning an a home computer. Seenis that some people assume that what they1 don't, understand must ho some kind of fun gaine. On te other tbings: What with radicalthought proees now ini ostublishoed positions of power, you can expect nursewwages te uncroase. Substantially. Wosest hseVL«tis Thus, people an shift work now mnaking $35,000 a year wiil go up te $50,000 witbun the next three years. 1 know, I know, that means that theyl end up making as much as an'assm]y porion on4 the lino at GM. Anid about three quartera as much as a skiiled tradesperson at GM.RLias this society got its priorities screwed up or what? The next thing you know, nursing assistants will make substantially more than floor cleaners and about thrée-quarters as mnuch as supermarket checkout clerks. This could get so bad that nurses wifl eventually make as much in a week as a good waitress will make in a weekend serving drinks ini a lively pub. I came to infori with shadowy innuendo, not to editorialize.I HellpSiQsurno ielL Watch for a special provincialy.funded welfare fund for auto insurance agents, hoginning ini May, 1991.
