Here's something new; Redford pledges $500 kids physical activity credit.
I hate these tax credits. They cost too much to administer and are just pure vote buying schemes.

I like the principle behind a physical activity credit, make it more feasable for parents to put their kids into sports, keep them active which does have obvious long term advantages.
What are some other ways that people can think of to get parents to motivate their kids to get them active? Should the provincial government use advertising in order to get the message out, something similar to Barb Tarbox? I do think that a foods class should be manditory in Junior High, teach kids how to cook and what healthy food is.
