Dear “ Bditors- - oe
In the September edition of
the North Shore -Women’s

Centre.. Newsletter: they. have

made up ‘an imaginary
checklist. of the ‘‘present
government’s policies and
their impact on women.”

I. would like to correct
them on several points of
their checklist:

e “Cut legal aid services —

funding.”

The legal aid budget for
this year is $13.4 million, un-
changed from last year.

e “Abolish rent controls. ’’

The law still states there’
cannot be any more’ than one _

rent increase per year.

It gives a right to ‘be free -
from unlawful or ‘hidden. rent.

incr eases.

It gives a right not to. be.

e “Cut MHR volunteer
coordinators.’

also stated they would like to’

At present, the informa-
