relocation benefits, and addresses the problem of the high cost of hiring fill-in nurses from an outside agency.It also calls for the creation of \"floating\" teams of nurses, with salary premiums above the requirements of the union's collective agreement.The Plan also includes \"enforcement of a strict recall list policy to insure equitable distribution of shifts.\" The recall list is a roster of part-time nurses who can be called on short notice to fill in temporary gaps or work overloads on nursing staff.In the recent past the eight nurses on the list had been asked to state one month in

Canada.advised them to stay at Conroy s Hotel and not to get involved with Symmes because he was trying to monopolize the passenger trade.The land sale auction was held at the Town Hall and with the advice of Ned O'Hagan both George and John (Joan) bought adjoining properties on the northern ranges of Clarendon.The next day, bright and early, George, John (Joan) and the land agent took the Emerald bound for Pontiac Village.The agent arranged for a team of horses to take them to Clarendon Centre that day.Desmond O Mara and his wife arranged for transport to Castleford and Mount St Patrick which had just opened up in Upper Canada.They took the horse railway to Union Village to catch the Oregon.Ned O'Hagan was always involved but always absent when people were saying goodbye.The rest of the passengers were businessmen, farmers and squatters going to different places up the newly populated valley.George and John (Joan) spent the trip on the wagon getting acquainted, comparing the bleak bald hills of Tyrone and Armagh with the thick forests of big and different trees all along the St Lawrence and the Ottawa River.There seemed to be no end since they left the Princess Mae at Grosse Isle.There would be many who would feel that they had been stabbed in the back by Mulroney after they had delivered all of their support to him in the November election.Their distress at being used and then abused would be quite educational.The success with which Boo Boo (our illustrious premier) has handled the many language issues in Quebec over the past twenty years makes one wonder how well he would perform if he were to be faced with a serious problem.When events took a violent turn in 1970, Bourassa was left quivering in his Quebec City hideout, and the federal government was forced to take control.He followed the coward's way out again when a few thousand irrational voices were raised after the Supreme Court's ruling in December that parts of Bill 101 were unconstitutional.It is clear that he has no principles, other than hanging on to power at all costs.The yes-men (some call them Liberals) who supported Bill 178, trampling the Quebec Charter of Rights, are no better.The federal government has the power to disallow provincial legislation, and it has done so in years past.No-one should hold his breath, however, waiting for Mulroney to make such a decision.He could lose a few of his cabinet ministers in the process.Quebec's politicians, particularly the Liberals, would perhaps begin to understand the outrage of Englishspeaking Quebecers, if the federal government were to disallow Bill 178.English and French conflict in Quebec George Stacey and John (Joan) Murray were among a half dozen new immigrants who took the Lady Simpson in early July 1850 for the Upper Ottawa settlements near Bytown from Lachine.George was despondent after selling out his farm, paying his debts, going to Scotland to get passage to Canada, suffering the agony of losing his wife and daughter to the dreaded co-lera, meeting and losing the acquaintence of the young Joan Mullins who had lost her parents.George was blind to what could happen but he said to himself, I can't lose more.\" John (Joan) on the other hand was hardened into sadness in a family that had lost their homestead, had buried two of her brothers where the high kings of Ireland lay a thousand years before.John (Joan) was determined that she could survive and succeed, or if not she'd try.The Lady Simpson landed at Hull and all the new immigrants were advised to get off because they would not be allowed to disembark at Bytown where colera was already a problem.On the dock-wouldn't you know, our friend Ned O'Hagan was there promoting passengers to come to Aylmer, to take Don\u2019t get caught up in this pipe dream for too long, though.Mulroney, even use all wind when it comes to actually doing something of substance about human rights.The recently revealed figures, showing a major increase in Canadian imports from South Africa while at the same time he publicly criticized that country for its racist policies, indicate Mulroney\u2019s priorities where human rights are concerned.The buck and the vote come first.Dear Editor: After watching W 5 on Chan iel 13 last Sunday night, I cannot help but make a few comments regarding the program, which displayed the conflict between the English and French in Quebec.I cannot help but give a lot of credit to Mr Steven Nowell and Mr Royal Orr for standing up for their rights while facing such outstanding odds, and possible threats.Poor Mr Robert Bourassa.He missed the chance of a lifetime.He could have gone down in Canadian history as a great Peacemaker if he had only gone along with the decision of the Supreme Court of Canada, regarding Bill 101.It would have brought good feelings about bilingualism clean across Canada.The only people that he would have had any trouble with would be the F.L.Q.members, and all he would have had to say to them was that he had no alternative but to go along with the decision of the Supreme Court of Canada.He made the wrong move, and that was to outlaw English outside signs in Quebec.If he had only used his good judgement, and I am sure he knew better, but was scared of the F.L.Q.which I understand is supported by only about one third of the population of Quebec.I would like to compare the F.L.Q.in Quebec to being about the same to the Quebec people as what the Nazis were to the German people back in the late nineteen thirties.About two thirds of the people of Germany at that time hated Hitler, so I am told, but due to his S.S.troops and military support, he finally took over, and we all know what the outcome of that was, World War II.If Mr Bourassa does not change his ways, he is very apt to lose the next election to the F.L.Q.party, and if this happens, watch out.We have only seen the tip of the iceberg as yet.There was a late movie on Channel 13 a week or so ago, between midnight and 2:00 a m., called the War of 1995.I am going to ask C.J.O.H.to run it again some evening between 9 pm and 11 pm.The story in the movie is about Quebec and Canada.It goes on to say Quebec has separated a few years back, and has now invaded Canada, bombed airports, taken over Petawawa Military Camp, etc.The United however, it is enlighten- Nations then

relatives who settled Gregg's history, is that he said about the things he would do about bilingualism, there lived in what is now Ned when elected as Premier of Quebec.He will have to Sullivan's house by the accept all the blame if anything serious happens in Chapeau bridge.With some difficulty, Posen tracks down dian, especially for the Canadian grandchildren Gregg's daughter, who af- down the road, firms that her father wrote the piece in 1884.Others, such as Otter Lake historian Rev Joseph Gravelle, dispute this claim.Ever the detective and something of a scientist, Posen confirms the authorship of the song by studying the community's reaction to comments made about Gregg today.But Posen also draws on though he has said he detests the of the \"notwithstanding\" clause, is Most Quebecers are embarassed and concerned by Bourassa's ineptitude and his disregard for individual rights.It is Quebec's strength, and Canada's as well, that most of its people are decent, fair and generous.These characteristics, and a true desire by most Quebecers to live in a country where both French and English are accepted, will see us through these turbulent times and will continue to ensure the survival of the Canadian dream.Ross Dickson Book explores Chapeau's oral history George still had £51 left after paying fare, buying property and purchasing start up supplies.John (Joan) had but £26 left and no known way of earning anything in this new land even though she had purchased one hundred acres for £18.John (Joan) began wondering how long she could hold out this disguise, especially with George who was always lamenting the loss of his wife and daughter not knowing that John (Joan) had a bigger loss and added to that had no experience on how to earn money in this new frontier land.John (Joan) was, however, able to read, write and do arithmetic, so when they came to Clarendon Centre she was able to buy a week-old paper, the Paquet, from Bytown, and convince a Mr Hodgins, the storekeeper, that she was educated.The trip was continued and they arrived at their new properties about seven o\u2019clock.There was a log shanty on John's (Joan's) property, while orr George's there was a small log shanty and two log stables.\t!

re-published in book one from the Pontac who s heard that old tune many times and tends to take it for granted.But in that song and the oral tradition it embodies, Posen feels he has found the essence of North American Folk Art.Beginning with a brief history of Chapeau and the surrounding communities, Posen goes on to explain how the past of the region survives through its music.\"As long as you can still find a fiddler in the back room at Fred's Hotel, it will be sign that Chapeau We arrived at Fort William, that place you all know remains the way it was all We tuned up our violins and rosined our bow\tover the Valley 150 years Our silver strings rang out a clear trilling noise\tago,\" says Noel Ring in And the Oiseau Rock echoed, \"Well done, Chapeau the book.Posen says that

surface it might en mous sic The Chapeau Boys I'm a jolly young fellow, Pat Gregg is my name I live at the Chapeau, that village of fame For singing and dancing and all sorts of fun Sure the boys from

hay.We packed up our duds on the eleventh of July Bob Humphrey, Girard, Ned Murphy and I And straightway to Pembroke our luggage did take We boarded the Empress and sailed up the lake.George contacted John (Joan) and said since you can't get off the Lady Simpson in Upper Canada, you should see if you can get land in Pontiac, Lower Canada, because with land you become an accepted resident.John (Joan), who didn't know anything about money, land, or working for others, took George's advice and they followed The CLSC Grande-Rivière, in collaboration with an Ned to Aylmer.Ned had accountant,
