Maude Barlow, president of the Canadian Coalition , Against Media’ Pornography, said pornography in North — * America is a $50-billion-a-year business and “the most ’ disturbing trends”’ are an increase in pictorials of. sexual : violence and use of children. ; *_ Barlow told a conference organized . by Utiiversity of. * ‘Toronto law students thal proposed changes to the Criminal * Code will make it easier to censor sexually violent material, but she insisted action is also needed against publications such as Playboy magazine. “Putting animal tails on women and parading them in : front of men teaches a new generation that women have no proper place next to men,” said Barlow, who told about 150 , Sludents and faculty members Saturday that a recent York ’ University study found the number of rape scenes in films * shown in Canada has doubled in the last year. ' Last week, the coalition ‘organized countrywide : demonstrations to protest against the lack of controls ¢ over _ . “ muste videos shown on television.

But Barlow said those who oppose her group's demands ° 7 aid the cause of pornographers by shifting the focus of the ‘: debate to censorship‘ from pornography. - “Censorship has become the key issue and it should’ t :: be,” she said. 2 Parliament is to decide soon whether fo give the © , Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications “ -. Commission power to prohibit sexist programs and extend :: certain regulations to include pay television. Pay TV channels are exempt from ‘provisions of the “Broadcasting Act banning programs that abuse a race, ; :religion or creed. “The reason we want the CRTC to regulate i is that. the people who watch pornography want increasingly n more. “explit and violent shows,” Barlow said. : ‘Fecently. oti , . seventh of the world’s freshwater lakes arid rive _ TORONTO (cP) = -Caitadions have ausumed ot thiy could.” the real ingehire of'a eountry’ 3 wale wealth’ ia the reliable: pats of tte North and South Saskat - Hever run out of water in a i land. that. holds. more than’ But there is: growing évidence: that Canadians, ‘firs thirst: « cee Some western 5: redions are ising up irreplaceable water, sources and are starting to abandon farms,’ while, ther ; areas have simply reached their limit, . ; “..
