This depends on the age of the child and the level of competition. At the younger levels, they learn self-discipline, or- ganization, team work and responsibility.

(dec 83-853): follow- ing @ public hearing in Hull Que. on 1 Mar. 1983, the CRTC an- nouncs that it renews the licenses for the broadcasting receiving undertakings serving the communities noted above from 1 Oct. 1983 to 30 Sept. 1985, subject to the conditions of licence specified in this decision and in the licences to be issued. This short-term renewal will permit the Commission to review whether the licensee has fully responded to the substantial concerns raised in this decision with respect to the distribution of unauthorized signals. In Feb. 1982, the Commission was informed that Lakeshore Community Television Ltd. (Lakeshore) was distributing at least one U.S. television signal to its subscribers without Commission authorization. The licensee was ad- vised in a letter dated 3 Sept. 1982 that the carriage of unauthor- ized services constitutes a breach of the Boardcasting Act and the Cable Television Regulations and that if the licensee were distrib- uting unauthorized services, such distribution should cease immed- iately. The Commission reminds the licensee that the ultimate responsibility for the operation of a broadcasting receiving under- taking and the programming services that it provides, rests with the licence holder who must ensure compliance with the Broadcasting Act, the regulations made under the Act and the conditions of its licence. In addition to the priority services required to be carried by regulation, the Commission renews the licensee's authority to con- tinue to distribute the programming of the following optional sta- tions on each its six systems: TCTV - Montreal, Que., CHAN-TV Vancouver, B:C., CHCH-TV Hamilton, Ont. and CITV-TV Edmonton, Alta; CFOM-FM Moncton, N.B., CKAC and CITE-FM Montreal, CIRK- FM Edmonton, CKO-FM-2 Toronto, Ontario and CFMI-FM Vancouver as received from CANCOM. The licences are also subject to the condition that the licensee not charge subscribers in each area more than the authorized maximum monthly subscriber fees listed below: Red Rock and Nipigon: $18.19 including $7.50 for the cost of the delivery of the Canadian CANCOM signals and $3.19 for the cost of the delivery of the CANCOM "3 plus 1" signals; The fees for the delivery of the Canadian CANCOM signals and the CANCOM "3 plus 1" signals may only be charged during such time as these services are available to subscribers. The licences are also subject to the con- dition that the licensee not charge more than the authorized maxi- Mum installation fees of $30 in Wawa and $25 in each of the other communities. Complete texts of CRTC documents are published in both official languages in the "Canada Gazette," Part |, which is generally avail- able for viewing in reference libraries; single copies are sold at bookstores carrying Canadian government publications. They may also be read at CRTC offices; CRTC decisions may be read at licensee offices during normal business hours. Public interest groups are invited to contact the CRTC for copies of CRTC public documents.

A skillful young skater and puck-handler may learn little about co-op- eration because he rare- ly passes! When he pro- gresses to playing with 13-16 year olds, he must learn to pass or he won't make the team. Likewise with the lev- el of competition. Al- though house league level emphasizes differ- ent values from the more competitive all- star hockey, under- standing others, being tolerant and co-opera- tive may be learned at both levels. However, the values of competi- tion, winning and commitment to hockey are promoted more fre- quently and vigorously at the all-star level. Many parents feel confident their children will learn desirable at- titudes and behaviour in the classroom. Can parents be equally con- fident about the local arena? Not necessarily. There is a coaching cer- tification programme through which coaches may upgrade their skills, but in most com- munities it is optional. Moreover, few coaches see themselves as teachers or try to do some teaching at every practice and game. Many coaches think that all learning oc- curs during games, and the more games, the more likely a team and players. will improve. The evidence suggests that more practices are needed in order for op- timal learning to occur. Parents cannot be confi- dent that the child will learn in the arena as in the classroom because so much depends on the philosophy, objectives and experience of the coach. Are you optimistic about the future of min- or hockey in Canada? Yes, Iam. Some of the recommendations from Minor Hockey in On- tario have been imple- mented. In Ottawa, for example, Level II is now the minimum require- ment for coaches. Some house leagues allow no body contact at any age level, so kids can play on an equal basis even if their size and physical strengths are vastly dif- ferent. The C.A.H.A. is bringing in new pro- grammes. : Hockey Ontario has introduced trainers' programmes so a num- ber of communities now have someone on the bench who knows what to do in an emergency. Some areas have moved ahead of others. Chairman: M. Reid The Lake Superior Board A O04 .

Director: M. Twomey Farming Canada's bountiful forest lands provide the base for the country's largest manu- facturing industry: pulp and paper. In recent years, attention has turned to the question of how Canada can produce an adequate supply of wood fibre so that it can maintain its present share and par- ticipate in the growing world demand for forest products. Spending on forestry by governments and industry has risen sharply in recent years and much more the Forests io | 240 WN Pulp and Paper Reports: = FOREST RENEWAL EXPENDITURES CANADA ($ MILLIONS) is required. Money is invested in protecting exist- ing forests from the ravages of fire, insects and disease. It is invested in seed- lings, and in thinning and fertilizing stands of timber. The investment pays off in more fibre per hectare. To meet the growing competition in and better forests. H3B 2X9; world pulp and paper markets, Canada needs more than modern, efficient mills.

Are thé problems similar across Canada? I think that certain problems are common throughout: the need for emphasis on funda- mental skills rather than body-checking. The C.A.H.A. has eliminat- ed body contact for players under the age of 12, which solves some problems. However, Ontario has problems off the ice, and having three separate branches creates diffi- culties. It would be a big plus for one group only to speak for hockey in dealings with public, private and government sectors. What advice do you have for parents who want to get involved in improving the way hockey is taught, play- ed and organized for youngsters? Above all, parents need to become inform- ed and organized, be- cause many of them know little about the or- ganization of hockey. A single vote is not ef- fective. Parents should prepare suggestions and have them discussed at annual or _ coaches' meetings, and be pre- pared to involve them- selves. Also, they could read two helpful books - "You and Your Child in Hockey" and the "Fair Play Codes.' What should parents look for? What quest- ions should they ask? Observe how the coach deals with the children on his team. Is teaching going on dur- ing the game? Observe the interaction be- tween the coach and the officials. I was at a minor atom game (9 year olds) where a coach was ejected for verbal abuse toward the ref- eree. One should quest- ion his leadership abil- ity and the example he is setting for the players and parents. _ Questions to coaches, administrators and exe- cutives might include: What level of certifica- tion is required? Are they qualified trainers? What is the philosophy behind games vs. prac- tices? The following was written by Barry Mc- Pherson. Terrace Bay Fire Dept.
