My colleagues in the Cabinet, fellow Members of the Legislature and staff of my Ministry, join with me in thanking Kimberly- Clark for their donation of the former Terrace Bay Motor Hotel to the senior cit- izens of your community. Within the next few months, this fine hotel will be converted into a Senior Cit- izens' Residence, functioning as a satellite Home to "Pinewood Court" in Thunder Bay but serving your entire District. There will be a close partnership between our Ministry through Mr. Lawrence Crawford, Director of the Homes for the Aged - Office on Aging Branch, and the Board of Management for the District of Thunder Bay Homes for the Aged, through Mr. James Symington, Chair- man, and Mr. M. Vibert, Administrator. We have every expectation that this new Home will provide a valuable service to your community and surrounding territories. In addition, we have already assured the Board of McCausland Hospital and our own associates in the Ontario Ministry of Health, that we in the Ministry of Community and Social Services will cooperate with them in every way to help them serve the health needs of your community. Your Recreation Centre, too, is of interest to my Ministry. Our emphasis, of course, will be on social service, accommodation and activity programs. I wish to ask the representatives and employees of Kimberly-Clark, labour and management, and all visitors, for help in making this a truly community spirited pro- ject. Your understanding and cooperation at this time of transition is essential, and your continued support of the coming programs of this Senior Citizens' Residence and Centre will go a long way toward making our joint Terrace Bay project one of the best of its kind in Ontario. With all good wishes, Sincerely, Rene Brunelle, Minister, Community and Social Services.
