Summer
language |
program
launched

THE ENGLISH Language Pro-
gram of the UBC Centre for Con-
tinuing Education administers 2
summer language program on
behalf of many international
registrants. The program runs this
year from June 28 to September 7.

A basic instructional policy of
the program is that students (all at
college level or beyond) should
stay with English-speaking fami-
lies. Homestay placement serves to
complement the classroom instruc-
tion,

If you are interested in par-
ticipating in an unusual cultural
experience as a host family, or
would like more information,
please phone Nancy Bosman at
222-5225.

Families are reimbursed and
should live within a reasonable
travelling time from UBC.

Economic renewal is necessary for all
of us. It will take co-operation. It means
working together. As British Columbians,
we have to take a team approach to
create new jobs and achieve a new level of
prosperity. Bill 19 is part of a positive
program to create more opportunities here
in British Columbia.

We listened to unions, business, and
individual British Columbians and together,
we've made good legislation even better.

We changed the Industrial Relations
Commissioner’s role and powers to ensure
accountability: for key decisions lie with
the Minister of Labour and other elected
officials.

We eliminated a clause that left the
impression “firings without cause” could
take place.

We moved to prevent workers hired
during a labour dispute from voting on a
collective bargaining issue.

We're making sure hiring of trainees
and apprentices in the union sector
is covered by collective agreements.

It all adds up to a more positive way to
achieve industrial stability and secure jobs
for our people. We can only succeed if we
all pull together. That means co-operation,
not confrontation.

Yet some special interest groups saw fit
to break the law, inconvenience their fellow
British Columbians and exact a heavy toll
on our economy.

We've guaranteed access to grievance.
and arbitration procedures for employees
facing discipline for refusing a back to
work order.

We've clarified a clause that was seen
to infringe on unions’ rights to legitimately
discipline their members.

Bill 19 will bring us industrial stability,
new investment and most importantly, new
and more secure jobs for British Columbians
if only special interest groups would put
your interest — the public interest — first.
