Aguasabon Falls Trailer Park C HNIATURE GOLF ¢ NOW OPEN Mother of murder victim petitioning for changes to Young Offenders Act and rudely awakened to the cause and effect of much of the vio- lence in our society today and a grossly imbalanced criminal jus- tice system which undeniably "shows partiality to the wicked deeds of the offender and contin- ues to deny the innocent of jus- tice." Debbie Hamelin is now launching a campaign to bring about changes to the Young Offenders Act. She is petitioning to have youths charged with mur- der to undergo trial in adult court among other changes. Interested and supportive citi- zens can sign the petition at the Terrace Bay Municipal Office. By Dave Chmara Chantelle Hamelin was, as her mother puts it, "a beautiful two year old child". 'But, on Oct. 8, 1988, Chantelle's 14-year-old baby sit- ter attacked and beat to death the two-year-old. Since then, he has been charged with her murder. The case will be held in youth court and if the 14-year-old is convict- ed, he faces a maximum sentence of three years, under the provi- sions set out in section 20 (1) of the Young Offenders Act. Chantelle's mother, Debbie, said, "I have now become acutely Family Eun!

The Ministry of Natural Resources says, "exotic or trans- planted species can severely dis- rupt a fishery. The new fish com- pete with native populations for existing habitat or food, and may introduce parasites and disease. Some species such as carp, which forage along the bottom of lakes and streams, can foul water- ways and destroy spawning grounds for native species of fish and wildlife." As a result, Vince Kerrio, Minister of Natural Resources, is urging anglers in Northwestern Ontario not to use live baitfish that originate from outside the province. "The use of foreign baitfish by anglers is increasing on many lakes in Northwestern Ontario. This practice is dangerous because of the risk of introducing exotic fish species, parasites and diseases to our provincial fish- ery," said Kerrio. Kerrio requested federal Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, Thomas Siddon, to amend the Ontario Fishery Regulations of the federal Fisheries Act because the Ontario Fishery Regulations are under the jurisdiction of the federal Fisheries Act, even though they are administered by the province.
