This time it was whether or not to provide noon-hour busing for kindergarten students. The issue may appear inconsequential at fir- st, but its implications are far- redching. For instance, if the board. had’ decided to eliminate the bus ser- vice, parents would have been faced with @ither driving the y s home Ives, or changing the kindergarten from half-day to full-day. As it is, parents of students at- tending Valley Vista kindergarten will have to pick up their children beginning in September. _ Why did the board eliminate’ noon-hour busing at Valley Vista? Were all the options considered? We've been hearing lately how Expo 86 is for all of B.C. and not just for the Lower.Mainland or “large centres. But that's not strictly true.

Let's begin by listing the reasons against more immigration. How about unemployment?

Another thing that bugs me is the idea of spending $1,000 of taxpayer's money on fireworks that lasted less then an hour, when some of these immigrants are unemployed and have to go to the Unemployed Action Centre- for food at cost price. The.

The school board a few years later brought in two French Canadian young men from Quebec to teach the teachers how to teach French. And guess what? The school . system phoned’me to provide board and room for them so I could teach them English. Isn't that pretty ironic? Our ancestors were the first settlers to land in New France in 1627. These were only. 65 French settlers.. They were the explorers with their families, andthe surveyors, herbalists and missionaries; they came to new France to start a new life and claim Canada as a French colony, but the English came and took it away from them.

Jesus told his disciples, “You will be witnesses. of me, . to the most distant part ofthe earth.” (Acts 1:8) He also warned them: “You, will be objects of hatred by’all people on.account of my name.” — Matt. 10:22. - This raises an interesting point. Does being a Christian in 1985 extract these same feelings of dislike? If not, what has changed to create the diff- -erence in attitude? Is Christianity accepted and viewed favorably how or has it changed to conform to what the world expects‘ and thus its ‘in-” dividuality? In his book “Christianity and the Roman Government”, E. G. Hardy wrote: “It appears conclusively, both from the letter of Pliny and the rescript of Trajan, that the Christians could be punished for nomen (or name) alone, or the mere profession of. Christianity, apart from the specification or proof of definite crimes.” : i Of the early Christians it has been id: “Sometimes they were tortured and thrown to hungy wild beasts in the arena to amuse the populace.” Chris- tians, or those professing to ‘be Christians, are not being thrown to the lions today.
