Infancy Act amendment will give
health-care workers carte blanche

Dear Editor:

Is atheistic communism, Rus-
sian KGB style, coming to
Canada?

Believe it or not, there are very
significant events occuring which
indicate that that is just what
might be in the wind at this very
moment.

At the Marian conference held
in Denver, Colorado, Dec. 4-6,
Josyp Terelya, who spent 22 years
in prison in the Soviet Union, and
who miraculously survived a night
stripped of his clothes, locked in a
.cold storage cell, warns that the
NDP government in Ontario paid
$100,000 for a statue of Lenin
which they have erected in Toron-
to.

“If we look closely enough at the
amendment to the Infancy Act,

which has passed a third reading
in Victoria, can we be blamed for
comparing it to the instruments
which might well have enabled
Stalin, Castro, and other totalitar-
jan leaders to capture the youth
and establish movements such as
the Hitler youth?

It is time for every fair-minded
Canadian of any denomination, as
well as others who prize their
freedom, to wake up to what is
happening and recognize the war-
ning signals.

The Infancy Act amendment
has progressed so far with very
little publicity, but has not yet
been proclaimed by the lieutenant
governor, thank God.

Judging by the lack of publicity
given to this bill, it would appear
that it is the policy of the NDP to

We should be first in Hine
for new crossing financing

Dear Editor:

The deteriorating condition and
increasing age of the Lions Gate
Bridge is a growing concern for
those who regularly cross it.

While this concern is shared by
others,
tween Vancouver and Whistler,
the Sunshine Coast,.and Van-
couver Island, it is of primary
concern .to the residents of the
North Shore.

Such a vital matter for North
Shore residents makes it im-
perative that we take the lead-
ership to find a timely solution
before we are forced to deal with
an emergency.

Not having the money is no ex-

cuse for delay. The planning pro-
cess alone will take several years,
it should therefore be started
now.

Such a long-term plan will re-
quire a detailed process involving
public input, assessment of alter-
natives, and the goodwill of all
three levels of government to find
the right solution.

Currently the federal govern-
ment is considering financial sup-
port for infrastructure replace-
ment.

if they do decide to make this
support available, shouidn’t we be
first in line for a new crossing?

administer as quietly as possible.

But where have the media been,
and why such silence from the
Opposition; do they agree?

It would appear that the
amendment gives carte blanche to
any ‘‘health-care worker’? ap-
pointed by the government to
administer any treatment to any
child ffom any age without per-
mission or reference to the parent.

In fact, it was explained that
medical practitioners would be
forbidden to reveal treatment ad-
ministered, to the parent.

If on reading between the lines
you don’t like what you see, then
get up and fight now.

Write or phone the lieutenant
governor, the Opposition, the
premier and anyone else you can
think ef.
