The pro- gram especially helps senior cîtizens and people -on low to moderate incomes pay their municipal pïoperty taxes or rent. There are three credits based on age, income and famnily circunistances. You mnay be eligible even if you have no taxable incorne. The first is the Property Tax Credit which i ay be claimed by horneowners, renters and roomners. This credit helps to offset the property taxes or rent you paid in 1979. The second is the Sales Tax ('redit, available to peo- ple not claimed as depen- clants on another person's income tax return. This credit offsets provincial Re- tail Sales Tax according to your income and number of dependants. The third, the Pensioner Tax Credit, is a further fi- nancial help to people 65 years and over. Even if you pay no rent or income tax you may be eligible to dlaimn $110. A fourth credit, the loliti- cal Contribution Tax Credit, was introduced to encourage people to take more interest in provincial polities. Unlike the first three credits, this credit is not based on age, income and faniily circum- stances. To be eligible you mnust have provincial tax payable in excess of any of the first three credits to which you are entitled. To dlaim these credits you must file a federal in- corne tax return together with the Ontario Tax Cre dit form included in the income tax kit.

Somne 50,0«0 Canadians will die from bheart attack and over 16,000 will die as a resuit of stroke. How niany of these poeople would sur- vive if they knew the early warning signs of heart at- tack and stroke and the ac- tion to take inmediately. The synxptomns of heart a t- tack are: prolonged, heavy pressure or squeezing pain in the cerntre of the chest, behind the breastbone; pain may spread to the shoulder, armn, neck or jaw; pain or discornfort is often accomn- panieciby sweating; nausea, vomniting or shortness of breath iriay also occur; symptoms niay subside and then returx. The syrnptorns of stroke are: sudIden, temporary weakiness or numbness of face, arin or leg; temporary loss of speech, or trouble in speaking or understanding speech; teýmporary dirnness or loss of 'vision, particularly in one eye; an episôde of double vision; unexplained dizziness or unsteadiness; change iii. personality, men- tal ability or the pattern of headaches may also occur. It must be stressed that t.hese are only what the naine implies-warning signs or syniptoms. They are not always true signais of heart attack and stroke, but acting on them un- mediately is important. Get to the hospital emergency room at once if your doctor is not immediately available. Cliche or not, it's better to be safe than sorry 1 And, if the symptoms oc- cur in a rnember of your family or in a friend, it's your responsibiity to take action, even over the obje- tions -of that person. The decision to act to too impor- tant to leave to the patient atone. That's one of the reasons the Heart Fund theme this year is "a Healthy Heart is a Famnily Affair". Your Heart Foundation has free information available about heart attack and stroke and other things you can do to safeguard your heart-health. It's yours for the asking. While you're at it, why not donate to the fight against heart attack and stroke by giving to the Heart Fund.
