Initiatives
At his installation as Lieutenant Governor of Manitoba, His Honour spoke
about the special themes of his mandate. Of Manitoba's
history, he said, "I hope that as Lieutenant Governor I will be
able to encourage, in my own small way, a greater curiousity about our
past, and in heightening awareness of it, contribute to an understanding
of where we are and where we may be going as Manitobans." Of disorders
of child development, he said, "..I propose to provide support
to the children-and families of children-who are dealing with disorders
of childhood development, particularly Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
(FASD) and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). ...I believe that no parent
should feel alone in the struggle, that no teacher should feel overwhelmed
in the classroom, and that no child should feel hopeless or be without
some success."
