The school of dental therapy was begun in 1972 te train résidents of the North- west and Yukon Territories as dental therapists capable. of handling the primary dental care needs of the northern people, later ex- panded to include native people of the provinces. — The two-year course is an - intensive mixture of academic studies, field trips and working experience. It requires residence in Fort Smith, jocated-in the Nor- thwest Territories just above the Alberta border. A number of B.C. Indians have been sent by the Branch to the school in previous years, but dropped out at different times before completion mostly because of homesickness. The successful graduation . by Sally Smith and Jennifer Grant is very gratifying to the Medical Services Branch. ; “All af us are very proud of them," says regional director Dr. Gordon C. Butler. “They showed a strong, professional pride and purpose from the beginning, and their joining us will enrich the quality of service we provide for native people.” Four more Indian students from _ British Columbia have been selected to begin training at Fort Smith in September.- 635-2281. 632-2281 construction [ea of buildings ¢a2 my (cee ee ment with: FEDERAL NESS VELOPMENT BANK oe ‘'The Canadian Manufacturers’ Association condemns as irresponsible the intention of the Canadian Labour Congress to hold a so called ‘day af protest’ on October 14 to. exnress its opposition to the f- ueral government's Anti- inflation Program,” said: Rodrigue J. Bilodeau, president of the CMA. “Should the ‘day of protest’ result in concerted stop- pages of work by em- ployees, such actions will violate both collective agreements and labour relations: laws and con- stitute illegal strikes, regardless of what the CLC chooses to call them.” “The Congress’ proposed action would be coun- terproductive in lost roduction and income, in inconvenience to -a large number of Canadians, and also in undermining basic principles of law.and order which are vital to the stability and security of the nation.’ “An. illegal strike,” conlinued Mr, Bilodeau, “‘is also a poor way of demonstrating the responsible attitude necessary before Canadians and their government can seriously consider the CLC's demands for greater par- ticipationin the formation of social -~and economic policies.” “In our view, an illegal national strike represents a very large step backwards for the union movement in Canada and will worsen a strike record which is already among the worst in the world. Certainly, Canadian industry can ill- afford this kind of debilitating action as it fights ta remain com- petitive.” 1 “Although some of the provisions of the Anti- Inflation Act are severely penalizing industry, the Act is the law of the land and should be respected.

A strong consensus has already developed among our members to claim damages against the union and-or discipline any em- loyees who strike illegally.” ; ’ “Although, by not im- posing the appropriate penallies in the past, the various levels of govern- ment and certain govern- THE HERALD, Wednesday, August 18, 1976, PAGE A3 | Manufacturers condemn labour protest ment agencies as employers have fostered a belief that illegal strikes by public employees are acceptable, the Association urges all governments to clarify at an early stage that any public employees who strike iRegally will be subject to disciplinary action, if nol prosecution and that . damages will be sought against their. unions,” in coneluding, Mr. Bilodeau said: “We have been fortunate in Canada nol to have been beleagured by political strikes. Failure by governments to act strongly and quickly in the face of a threatened political strike will encourage a repetition of such ac- tivities.” U.S. dollar weakens The U.S. Dollar which had surpassed the 99 level against the Canadian at mid-week, weakened when news was announced of a $700 MM loan to the Province of Quebec to help’ finance the Olympic deficit.
