CPR reinstates rail passes Keith Penner's battle to get Canadian Pacific Rail to reinstate its passenger rail passes to its pension- ers has apparently succeed- ed, according to a news re- lease from the Cochrane- Superior MP. ° "The company will in- vite those who qualify to make a choice between free transportation and extend- ed health care benefits," Penner noted in the release dated April 10. In September of 1985, CP Rail notified its pen- sioners that their free trans- portation privileges were being discontinued. In ex- change, the company intro- Former resident Nancy Doetzel, a former area resident now living in Thunder Bay, returned to Ter- race Bay last month to take part in the Talent Show held during the town's first Cross-Cultural Conference. The event, hosted by the Terrace Bay/Lake Superior Multicultural Association, attracted over 50 Northwestern Ontario delegates. Myths are perpetuated Myths about women's supposed intellectual and emotional inferiority and their supposed masochism must be ended if their lives are to be improved. This was the theme of a speech given at a conference held in Toronto last month. Dr. Paula Caplan gave the keynote speech to the Federation of Women Teachers' Associations of Ontario Conference on guidance and socialization held in Toronto, which was attended by a delegation from the Terrace Bay area. Dr. Caplan, who is the Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Psychology at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, believes that these and other myths are perpetuated in today's society, including in educa- tional institutions. Parents and teachers can help children learn about members of the opposite sex and why they act the way they do, she said. Dr. Caplan is the author of The McCausland Hospital The Board of Governors wishes to remind the public of the upcoming Annual Meeting of the Corporation on June 10th, 1986.

About 200 classroom teachers attended the weekend conference, a news release noted. Area people attending included Janice Wilson and Chris Koshowski of Terrace Bay Public School. The Federation of Women Teachers' Assoc- iations of Ontario repres- ents about 31,000 elem- entary school teachers across the province. ANNUAL MEETING duced a free, basic, health care plan along with an ex- tended health care plan at a reduced cost, the release added. Penner asked the Min- ister of Transport in the House of Commons as well as the CP Rail Executive, to give the pensioners a choice between their passes and the health care pack- age. He made the request after receiving a petition from a number of CP Rail pensioners in Schreiber. At first, the company did not agree, even after a group representing Penner and the pensioners spoke directly to the CP President and other executive mem- bers. However, last month Penner was notified that CP had changed its mind. According to the release, the majority of pensioners in Penner's riding, which includes Terrace Bay and Schreiber, are satisfied with their provincial health care benefits and their passes are more valuable to them than the health pack- age offered by CP Rail.
