stux weekender may 7 1994 p 21 foreign markets are safe haven for your money from page 19 rates may well fall lower but the long term picture suggests they will rise further lets look at our dollar we might fret when it falls but think about the americans our biggest trading partners if you build ford cars and trucks in the us and our dollar falls to the 65cent level you will be out of work as americans will find it cheaper to buy canadian made cars our dollar may well fall a bit lower but it wont collapse there would be so much pres sure on the american govern ment that they would buy up every available canadian dollar once the world saw it happen there would be such a rush into our dollar that it would rise so fast that the bank of canada would have to lower interest rates to restrict the rise in our dollar so dont pay too much atten tion in the long run to our dol lar there will be heat but it will be shortlived however we have something much more important to consid er

hate work to rule campaigns from day one of starting to teach every teacher in york region has willingly given hundreds of hours a year in voluntary extracurricular activities it sounds trite but our basic instinct is always to be involved lend a helping hand take a little extra time to listen and to learn this year in negotiations with the board of education we were faced with one of three tough choices f let the york board cut the quality of public education and accept what the board wants cut 115 teachers the equivalent of a large high school and watch your class sizes soar and your course options get chopped by the way none of us would lose our jobs if we accepted their offer 2 strike go on a fullscale withdrawal of services to underline our concerns for maintaining the quality of public education 3 keep on teaching and start a work to rule campaign with two goals- under line our concerns for maintaining the quality of education and make sure that none of you lose the instruction which is so important to you we need your help not all trustees support cutting the quality of education we believe in fact that no trustee really supports this idea but the board appears to be planning to cut off your education by locking us out help to keep the schools of york open help to preserve the quality of public education please call your trustees and the board chairperson bill crothers to voice your concerns at 90s 7273141 if you would like more information about the work to rule please call the york region high school teachers information line 1 90s i 7279664 7s0o
