ABC has aired what many believe is the most controversial television movie ever made. The Day After. The mm, starring Jason Robarts. depicts in great detail World War m. By critics, it has been labelled “timely." Its message is reaching Americans and Canadians on the eve of the planned deployment of NATO nuclear missiles in Europe. The film dramatizes two points: I) the deterrence theory is not "ui1-sare." and 2) no one can survive a nuclear war. The current global arms expenditures and the iateqtsitieati- of hostility between the major military powers has alarmed the international community.

I joined partia- mentarlans from 24 countries at the United Nations to discuss the means to reverse the international trend to militarization. which were aimed at meeting the peace and security challenge of the go's, The parliamentary forum looked at the dis. turbing process of militarization. which is strangling our national economies and inhibiting the primary task of govern- mean everywhere to promote economic and social development. The main thread of our discussions was expressed by Commonwealth Secretary- Genenl Shridath Ramphal: ..."matters cannot be left to the superpowers. whose concept of an ordered world is one ordered by themselves alone." Mr. Ramphal called for "a new global ethos that rejects the military culture." Bruno!!!

McQuarrie is a segregated lutermedi» ate level school for the mentally retard- ed.The age range of the students varies from no - " years. The two-level school has (our classrooms. an Industrial Arts Room, a kitchen and moi-ha eating area, and a gymnasium with a stage. The main thttor is easily accessible for physically handicapped students. Many changes have been made to the school so that it is generally barrier free. Ail the children come to the school by bus Three of the classes have see children each. and the fourth class ,'fi'l five of the more seriously handicapped pupils, Including some with blindness. This year each McQuarrie student has his/her own individual timetable A number of decisions. with input from each parent. were made early in Sep- tember. We wished to consider: derteits, ill-health, and educational needs, he warned that "poverty has fuelled the battlefields of most of the forty wars going on in the South right now; and there is little hope of reducing this unless we act to defuse the one common source of exacer- bated tension: underdevelopment."

The Third World lacks essential equipment and supplies. there is a shortage of capital for investment. and a desperate need for more technically trained manpower. A more comprehensive view of the state of man kind would show that all of these shortages . what length of period can the child tolerate at a particular time. Once the student’s needs were iden- tified and bis/her timetable was devel- oped ongoing observation. assessment and evaluation are done. As a result. McQuarrie School offers many life skill programs in many subject areas, Phy- siotherapy, cooking simple meals. shop- ping. putting groceries away. cosmetics. personal care. physical fitness. balance and co-ordination. sign language. indus trial arts. speech and language develop- ment, sensory simulation. money and basic mathematical skills. deportment and socialization are part of the school's programs. are. in part. illusory. The means for increasing food production exist. so does much of the equipment and supplies for economic development. Moreover, there is ample capital . conceivably as much as $550 billion each year _ that could be converted into civilian investment.

Three McQuarrie students are presently participating in a Grade 7 physical education class at Queensth School. It has become apparent to the staff that volunteers are of utmost impor- tance to the school. Thirty-five Grade 8 Queensmount students visit McQuarrie each week tumsist the children with their program. The Queensmount stu- dents spend either one-quarter or one half day each week with the children and it is up to the volunteers to make up for the time lost in their school day. The maturity and empathy these young people are developing will help them be the understanding and caring adults of tomorrow. We are proud of each program and the progress we "tour studgnts mating. Originally. all ages of mentally re- tarded students were taught at McQuar rie. Now. in the Kitchener-Waterloo area. there are three segregated tram able retarded facilities: New Dawn is a primary-junior school. and Rosemount educates the senior students. The indus- trial arts room at McQuarrie is used by all three schools, As well, classes for the mentally retarded are contained within regular public schools. such as Westheights. Smithson. Grand River Collegiate, Forest Heights Collegiate. and Queen Elizabeth School. If you are seriously interested in viewing this school in action. you are invited to call the Principal.

The arsenals of the world are impoverishing and de-stabilizing the world. In opting for the nuclear arms race. we are opting against a guaranteed future. white deceiving ourselves that we are acting to secure it. The Harvard Nuclear Study Group in their book, um um! Nuclear Wagons. cautions against two forms of escapism. The first form is that nuclear weapons will go away. The second form is to think that nuclear weapons can be treated like other military weapons in history. Prime Min- ister Trudeau has called our attention to yet another form that we indulge ourselves in. We have allowed rhetoric to be a substitute for foreign policy; we have let inertia become a substitute for will: and we stand on the brink of an abyss and call " peace.
