Weather-wise, it was a bit of a blustery day in Navan for the annual Fall Festival. But visitors dropping in at the Navan Fair grounds Oct. 3 still enjoyed themselves with touring through the indoor display of pump- kin art decorations and carving, sampling some of the homemade treats at the baked goods concession table, and warming up with hot chili courtesy of the Navan Lions Club before sitting down for the Navan Idol live entertainment show. Close by boys and girls, and some adults, scored goals in a temporary box hockey rink. Rev. Kristy Reimers-Lauder of St. Mary’s Anglican stopped over to perform the an- nual autumn blessing of the animals for pet owners. In between the agricultural display buildings, cross-training athletes compe- ted against themselves and each other in a marathon relay of weight-lifting, rope skip- ping, and other exercises.

Pensions RTO/ERO believes it is imper- ative that our political leaders address the absence of pension plans for 75% of private sec- tor workers who constitute the majority of the workforce. %e matter of assisting Canadians to plan for their retirement, and thus to be more self-reliant in their senior years, is as an opportunity to raise the quality of life of Canadians.
RTO/ERO’s Recommendations q %e Prime Minister convene a meeting of Premiers and ProvincialFinanceMinisters to work out a time frame for a phased-in universal health care program, and that such a program include a coop- erative Federal-Provincial Pharmacare Program. w %attheFederalGovernment undertake an expansion of the CPP in conjunction with the Provinces and Territories to ensure that Canadians can continue to maintain a rea- sonable standard of living in their retirement years.
Healthcare RTO/ERO is seeking from the Federal Government and the provinces a commit- ment to a phased-in, managed approach to universal healthcare that combines preven- tion and remediation. %is would include a campaign to encourage all Canadians to adopt healthier lifestyles, as well as a Pharmacare program that leaves the provinces responsible for the management of healthcare through an integrated, funded agreement between the provinces and the Federal Government.
