The Ontario premier is not going to allow the proposal to go through about having to have helmets on ski slopes in Ontario. This comes after a 13 year old crashed into a tree at snow valley last week, and later died. McGuinty says that after the accident he has bought himself a helmet but is not going to go as far as forcing others to do the same. Helmets are getting more and more common and even though parents force their children to wear them they often don't do as they are telling their kids. The urge for more people to wear them is becoming apparent, these accidents are just more wake up calls of what we should be looking for.
I my self wear a helmet when I am skiing, even though I'm better than most, I still do. I have been skiing for almost all of my life and in the past few years have started racing, I see people on the weekends with and without helmets, often the people that don't know how to ski, or are beginners are not wearing them. I think that people have the right to not wear helmets but it is strongly recommended. But why wouldn’t you wear a helmet? There comfortable, affordable, warm, and not to mention look good and most importantly are safe. I'd personally wear a helmet than anything else when I am skiing. This is the advise that I would give to all people weather they ski or not, wear a helmet in what ever sport where it is advised, and who knows it might even save your life one day.
