The Royal Commission on Violence in the Communi- cations Industry is trying to find an answer. What does violence mean? Does it reflect the real world? Or can it create a different, more violent world in which we all have to live? What is the Commission doing? We're reviewing the current research. Holding public hearings for everyone. And we'll be recommending appropriate action for all levels of government, to the industry and to the public. What can you do? You can start by thinking about the effect that violence in the media has-good or bad-on your life. Your family. And that includes violence in radio, TV, comic books, newspapers, popular music, movies, books-even rock concerts. Then, tell us what you think. Send us your ideas. Come to the hearings. And when the time comes to make recommendations, there'll be things you can do. In your own home, your own neighbourhood. With your own children. It's important for all of us to know more about media violence and how it affects us. We will, if you help. The Royal Commission on Violence is holding a hearing in: THUNDER BAY MARCH 20° 7:30 to 10:30 pm The Lecture Theatre (Shuniah Building) The Confederation College of / Applied Arts and Technology 7 Thunder Bay, Ontario
