fights for Durham hospice
ax resident, has worked
for the past three years
to make James House a reality.
But he admits he's just about
ready to give up because of
blind ignorance in a communi-
ty that refuses to see AIDS
(Acquired Immunity
Deficiency Syndrome) as
nothing more than a "homo-
sexual disease."
The truth, as public health
statistics show, involves a
scourge that is rapidly affect-
ing the mainstream communi-
ty, right down to little children.
And if people aren't going to
open their eyes to the image of
four and five year-olds dying,
"when are they going to wake
up?" Pigden asks.
Named in honour of
Pigden's long-time friend. Jim
Mussel, who died in 1992
because of complications from
AIDS (Acquired Immune
Deficiency Syndrome), James
House is to be a 10 -bed resi-
dence. It will offer HIV
(Human Immunodeficiency
Vous, the precursor to AIDS)
patients and their families a
respite from the virus and its
symptoms, which are largely
flu-like and include headache,
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Since starting his quest in
March 1993, Pigden has
encountered stumbling blocks
ranging from official indiffer-
ence and a lack of money from
community agencies, to plain
ignorance and an incorrect
perception of AIDS as anill-
ness restricted to the gay com-
munity.
At a cost of $300,000 to
$500,000, the price is small
compared to a full palliative -
care hospice such as Toronto's
Casey House, says Pigden,
noting his efforts have so far
garnered ]tale support from
the mainstream community.
Most politicians distance
themselves f om any outward
association with the gay com-
munity -,citizens tend toward
om
hophobia; school boards do
the bare minimum in promot-
ing AIDS edun catioand
social service agencies lack fends ds to make James
House a reality.
Ajax Mayor Steve Parish
and Ward Two Councillor
Scott Crawford are both
strongly in favour of a hospice
being established.
"I would think that there is a
need and I would certainly
think that it would be an
appropriate matter," says
Parish "I don't know what if
any funding would be avail-
able from government sources,
but it's something that should
be done."
"I would definitely support
it," adds Crawford. 'The thing
with AIDS is that you don't
want to have people die alone.
This allows family to be
close. It adds comfort to the
person who is going to pass
away."
The idea behind the hospice
is simple, says Pigden. "It's an
HIV-positive residence. If a
son or daughter is HIV posi-
tive and the parents might
need a break for a week or so,
or if someone gets thrown out
of the house because they're
HIV positive, James House
would provide them with a
place to stay. There will
always be a stigma attached toID
AS." he adds, "even though
there are cases of HIV in every
high school in Durham
Region."
Mary Brown, communica-
tions manager at the Durham
Board of Education, says reg-
ular AIDS education is "pan
of the curriculum. It's mandat-
ed by the Ministry of
Education„" She insists the
board is doing everything it
can to promote AIDS educa-
tion in the classroom.
Pigden has led discussion
groups with high school Stu-
dents, mainly talking about
Tim Mussel and the syndrome
that led to his death. He finds
that teenagers are very aware
of AIDS, very sexually active
and very concerned about
reducing their risks.
-If the board of education
ever allowed me to videotape
the gmstions that these lids
ask they would be shocked,-
he says, adding that he is dis-
concerted by the ignorance of
a community that denies the
importance of necessarily -
explicit literature that discuss-
es AIDS.
Pigden expects it will take
several years, and not until the
number of heterosexual AIDS
patients increases dramatical-
ly, for attitudes to change.
Trudy Reid, executive
director of the Whitby -based
AIDS Committee of Durham,
agrees.
"I think there has been a big
switch there. It's anybody's
disease. The fastest-growing
segment of the population is
women." The non-profit AIDS
committee currently provides
individual counselling and
support groups to 26 AIDS
and HIV-positive patients and
49 family members and
friends.
Reid says the statistics do
not reflect the seriousness of
the syndrome's upward trend.
It's still such a sensitive
topic that many professionals
decline comment. Dr. Gillian
Gilchrist, a specialist in pallia-
tive AIDS cane at Oshawa
General Hospital and consid-
ered by social service profes-
sionals as Durham's foremost
authority on AIDS care,
refused to comment on the
issue, other than to say that
"most of our patients go to
Toronto for medication."
Meanwhile, Pigden and his
three-member board of direc-
tors continue to try and raise
the money for James House
through events like dances
and karaoke nights.

House a reality? Call Bob
Pigden at 686-5242.

Ontario Hydro under fire to kill
*From cover page
The demonstration came two
weeks after the latest series of
problems from the besieged
plant, a tritium leak that forced
the shutdown of the Ajax Water
Supply Plant, followed by
another leak that forced the
shutdown of the nuclear sta-
tion.
The plant has been operating
at reduced capacity for years
because of various reactor fail-
ures, but this is the first time
the entire plant has been
closed.
Pickering regional council-
lor Maurice Brenner believes
now is the time to close the
plant permanently.
"During the past several
years a series of events have
transpired that would support
that the plant is functioning
like an old car with constant
breakdowns and is ready to be
nuclear station
scrapped," Brenner said in a
news release. "Based on the
number of incidents... the
Pickering Nuclear Generating
Plant has outlived its useful-
ness and should be closed per-
manently."
Brenner is not the only
politico questioning the plant's
safety record. Politicians from
both Pickering and regional
council were furious with
Ontario Hydro for the response
time from the April 17 acci-
dent: it was five hours before
the leak was detected, 11 hours
before the call was placed to
the water plant and 14 hours in
total before local mayors were
contacted.
"Is that kind of time line
acceptable to the Region of
Durham? It is not acceptable,"
said Ajax Mayor Steve Parish,
adding that Ontario Hydro
made other mistakes as well.
"They were using an outdated
(emergency) manual."
Regional works chairman
John Aker agreed, pointing out
Ontario Hydro did not follow

Mayor Wayne Arthurs
the "protocol" of procedures-
'"nrey even phoned the wrong
location. Ajax (water plant) is
not a manned location. It was
just luck that someone was
there to answer the phone."
Ontario has yet to respond
to this latest series of problems,
although they do have some
supporters.
Toronto-based Canadian
Nuclear Association says
CANDU reactors used in
Pickering are safe, adding
Greenpeace is creating "unnec-
essary fear and anxiety" by
comparing the Pickering plant
to Chernobyl.
As well, a Pickering worker
and member of the Canadian
Nuclear Workers Council
lashed out at Greenpeace for its
allegations the plant is unsafe.
"My family lives only a kilo-
metre from the plant and I work
there every day. The
Greenpeace claim that the plant
isn't safe is the same thing as
accusing me of not caring
about my family's health and
safety - or that of my friends
and neighbors."
Meanwhile, regional council
wants to hire a full-time emer-

gency measures director, with
staff, and want Ontario Hydro
to fund the $500,000 proposal.
The idea was bom after last
year's mock emergency exer-
cise in Pickering, which sever-
al politicians described as a
"fiasco."
Pickering Mayor Wayne
Arthurs said negotiations
between the region and Hydro
are ongoing, but the region is
"not satisfied" with the level of
funding the company has
offered.
"Ontario Hydro should be
taking on a bigger role in this.
In my mind they're not taking
on their fair share."

Is it possible to regain our trust?
Ontario Hydro really has its hands full these days, doesal h? Anyone
paying attention to the various augments pat forth in this most recent
squabble with the paying public really has cause to wonder at the giant
utility's bravado. This is, after all, our company and our money and our
safety being played with — and right here on our own turf, too.
"It's safe!" insists Hydro, all the while hoping to peddle the operation
to private industry and gs out of the market before it all blows up (or
down, as the case may be). Business owners will recognize the tactic: Put
your company up for sale and get oat quickly before the new owners
realize just how dreadful the cooditica of your basions really is.
Hydro's protestations to the contrary, deep down we all known that —
yes — a Chernobyl could indeed happen here. We didn't need
Gmenpeace to tell n about the fear we live with daily. And while 9 may
be true that "safe" living places no longer exist, didn't we all just btathe
a sigh of relief when, for a few days, the monster shat down?

The one -height room
If the color and the huniture
arrangement of a room am
fine, but the room still appears
uninteresting, look -up. Tbat's
right. You'll probably find that
everything in the room is
about the same height. That's
because most fimlitim today
is designed approximately 30
inches above the floor.
Seek out furniture pieces
that will add the third dimen-
sion to your room. Examples

cabinet, even a baby grand
piano with the top propped up.
You can also take the eye
up with tall plants, hanging
baskets, floor lamps, hanging
lamps, or wall sconces. Art
work applied to the wall
above furniture is another way
to add vertical interest to a
room. You can create a com-
position, taking the furniture
piece into consideration, using
a single painting, a grouping
of several small paintings,
sculpture or baskets.
Rather than moving the
actual items around in the
room, it i. a good idea to test
out your ideas on paper first,
using the same approach as
the floor plan, but this time
drawing a vertical plan.
Drawn to scale, this elevation
makes an excellent reference:
however, even a freehand
sketch will help you visualize
the most effective way to take
advantage of the often over-
looked vertical space in your
room.

Responsible Care:*
OLJ'T THEWE CARE AB
ENVIRONMENT
Dupont Canada Inc - Finishes Business is a member of the Canadian Chemical
Producers Association. Under this association, all member companies must adhere
to rigid environmental codes of practice which includes the following topics:
Responsible Care - In the area of emergency response, close ties are maintained
with the Ajax Fire Department. Assistance is also given to the Town of Ajax with
regards to the emergency response plan.
As part of a community outreach program, a learning link has been established
between DuPont and the Ajax High School.
A community advisory process has been established and regular community
meetings have taken place with a cross section of the Ajax community.
Air Emissions - The DuPont Ajax Site has characterized all air emissions from its
manufacturing facilities. Results show that the emission levels are well below all
government standards. A program is underway to reduce these levels even
further.
Waste Management -Waste generated at the site is minimized by recovering
solvents and off spec material. All residual waste is segregated and disposed of
in accordance to government regulations. Re -cycling programs are in effect for
waste paper, cardboard, scrap metal, wood and beverage cans.
Product Stewardship - The Refinish segment of the DuPont Finishes Business
formed an Environmental Team to focus on how to respond to customer concerns
about waste generated through use of their products. The team is looking at
ways to help the customer reduce waste they generate and handle the waste
generated in a safe and sound manner.
1996 Environmental Program - Some of the major focus points of the
environmental program include the following:
In 1996, no community complaints were received for odorous emissions or
excessive noise levels.
The major areas of environmental focus for the Finishes Business in 1996 will be:

Dupont employees care
about the environment
'While other companies stick
to the letter of the law on envi-
ronmental matters, DuPont
Canada makes environmental
safety a top priority.
From emergency response
improvements to community
outreach programs; from emis-
sion controls to recycling and
from pollution prevention to
product stewardship, the Ajax
company provides responsible
care and a total committment
to the community and to the
environment.
The message of environ-
mental safety is not lost on
DuPont employees. Tricia
Boutilier said the chemical
company has always been
leaders in protecting the envi-
ronment.
"They're always looking at
ways to improve and they've
been making the employees
aware of the dangers to the
environment of not following
the guidelines," she said.
"Education and awareness; it
makes good environmental
sense."
Fellow employee Dave
Sampson says environmental
safety is "number one" at
DuPont
"It's not just for the employ-
ees; it's for the community as
well. If something were to go
wrong it would affect the entire
community," he said, adding
that the company holds regular
safety meetings and inform
employees inunodiaaly about
any new pis- "There's
total comnuttment every day."
Ken Burtt apeea "Dupont
cares, not only about the envi.
ronment, but about safety.
They put a high priority on
environmental safety here," he
said. "In all the companies I've
wormed for, rve never seen a
company that cared so much
about the environment"
The recurring theme of envi-
ronmental safety surfaced with
employee Doug Lawson's
comments as well. "It's really
number one around here. It's
safety, before the job gets
done."
Kelly Gies pointed out the
exceptional ventilation system
in the plant, the strong emis-
sion controls and the wet waste
recycling measures DuPont has
undertaken as an example of
environmental safety leader-
ship.
"It's a very safe environ-
ment to work in here. They
care about the people in the
plant and in the community."
Paxil Foster, DuPont's envi-
ronmental co-ordinator, said
the secret is DuPont's committ-
ment to making environmental
improvements a part of daily
company life.
'DuPont has successfully
integrated environmental stew-
ardship into the business plan-
ning. Environmental concerns
are not loomed upon as an add-
on, but part of doing business.
That approach has pushed
DuPont beyond just environ-
mental compliance. Caring for
the
�eyn�voo environment makes good
business seam"

Now the next step for the young red-headed
soccer star is to win a spot on the travelling
team. Only 16 of the 30 players will travel to
Florida and Regina to represent Ontario.
Savarino feels she has a good shot at being on
the team, but if it doesn't work out then she
already has one foot in the door.
"The next goal is to be a starter." said
Savarino. "It's hard just sitting on the bench

I have a chance to make it if I try hard

During the Christmas season, Savarino anx-

dick building
syndrome
by Sounne Elston .
Just about everyone you talk
to these days has a cold or flu
virus they just can't seem to
shake. And while it's easy to
blame the miserable weather
outside for our health woes, it
might just be the air indoors
that's making us sick.
The problem stems from the
fact that practically everything
in our modern homes and
offices is made of synthetic
materials. When these materi-
als gas off, they release low
levels of volatile, organic
chemicals. When this gassing
off process takes place in an
energy efficient, sealed build-
ing, the chemicals build up,
and eventually can cause a
variety of health effects. This
condition is known as "sick
building syndrome," and it can
cause a number of disturbing
symptoms.
Fatigue, loss of concen-
tration, learning disabilities,
headaches, irritability, diges-
tive upsets, nausea, nasal and
chest congestion, and un-
explainable body aches, can all
be symptoms of environmental
sensitivity. Affected indi-
viduals may also find them-
selves chronically depressed,
especially after spending pro-
longed periods of time in con-
tained environments.
The primary sources of
indoor air pollution an con-
struction materials, such as
Formaldehyde insulation or
particle board, interior fumish-
ings that include synthetic rugs
hnd furniture, and chemical
;leavers. These toxic sub-
ttavces release gases that can
:anse a variety of disturbing
rymptoms. In addition. fames
iom gas or oil farnaces can
am triggu similar reactions.
The good trews is that there
s a relatively simple and ivex-
wasive way to eliminate these
osirns from indoor air: A study
Mdorxed by NASA discov-
ad drat pleat mots and their
associated microorganisms
lestr+ol► organic chemicals,
acteria and pathogenic viruses
ad eventually convert ahem
into new plant tissue. The
microorganisms break down
the toxins into metabolites that
provide food for the plants,
effectively turning waste into
useful energy.
The study also indicated that
the capacity of plants and pot-
ting soil to continuously clean
the air actually improves when
they are constantly exposed to
air containing toxic chemicals.
-The microorganisms have the
ability to genetically adapt,
which increases their ability to
utilize toxic chemicals as a
food source. Furthermore, the
plants are not harmed by the
chemical capture process, nor
do they emit any toxins.
The research team at NASA
monitored the effects of three
common sources of air pollu-
tion: benzene, formaldehyde
and a dry cleaning chemical
known as TCE, on 14 varieties
of plants. Although all of the
plants had some effect in
reducing the chemicals, some
seem to have a greater appetite
for certain substances. English
ivy, for example, was able to
remove 90 percent of the ben-
zene from the test chamber.
Aloe vera removed an equiva-
lent amount of formaldehyde.
A variety of philodendrons also
proved effective on this chemi-
cal. Figures for the dry clean-
ing solvent TCE were much
lower. The most effective plant
for TCE was the peace lily.
which was only able to remove
30 percent of this substance
from the chamber
Wket yearn cors do —
Purchase at least one punt
for every 100 square feet of
interior space in your have or
office. For the best results,
combine a variety of common
,plants, including Qniope ever-
green, philodendrons, Mien-
bwbia and peace W.

Runnymede runs to Ontario Municipal Board""'
Z
1 By John Cooper
A company with plans to develop the
rugged Lake Ontario waterfront near
Carruthers Creek is turning the pressure up
a notch in its battle to push through a con-
troversial plan of subdivision.
Runnymede Development Corporation,
developer of the proposed Somerset Cove
community, recently fired off a letter
through its law firm to Durham Region
Commissioner of Planning Alex
Georgieff asking that its case be brought
before the Ontario Municipal Board
(OMB).
At issue is a perceived lack of action on
the part of the provincial natural resources
ministry with respect to setbacks designed
to protect environmentally -sensitive lands
that lie around the future residential com-
munity. The ministry currently requires
120 -metre setbacks from environmental-
ly -significant areas, while the company is
asking for setbacks from 50 to 90 metres.
An environmental firm hired by
Runnymede indicated that the setbacks
could be less than the provincial require-
ment of 120 metres.
"Unfortunately, the Ministry of Natural
Resources has not yet finally approved the
development concept proposed for the
'adjacent lands' to the Carruthers Creek
marsh. Despite numerous meetings and a
considerable amount of additional analy-
sis by our client, Ministry approval has
not been provided and we have no confi-
dence that such approval will be forth-
coming despite justification for such
approval. Our client is not prepared to
accept further delay," the letter from the
law firm of Aird & Beriis said. A study
done for the local action group Citizens
for Carruthers by Brooklin environmen-
talist Brian Henshaw recommended set-
backs in some places of up to 140 metres
to protect endangered wildlife in the area,
.including many species of birds, mam-
mals and reptiles. As well, corridors con-
necting the protected areas were recom-
mended. Included in the general area is a
rare great blue heron nesting colony in the
43 -hectare Warblers Swamp, to the north
of the proposed developmertt. On the
western side of the site, Carruthers Creek
winds down to the Wx, opening into a 13 -
hectare marsh.
Ajax planning director Peter Tollefson
,said Runnymede's action "comes out of
ifrustration on their part. And hani ly I'm

.,wonting quite diligently on it (the plan of

involved in the process."

Jim Blair, Director of Current Operations
with Durham Region's planning department
called the OMB request "a fairly common
thing." He agreed with Tollefson that the
waiting period can be lengthy, but added
that a pre -hearing could solve the issue
"There is a waiting period. It
(Runnymede) has to get in the queue for the
hearing," said Blair. "Sometimes there's a
pre -hearing earlier than that before it actual-
ly goes before a formal hearing. If the issues
get resolved the application can be with-
drawn by the applicant at any time."
According to Blair, the OMB has the
option to dissolve the 120 -metre require-
ment. `Basically what is required is an envi-
ronmental impact statement... where the
applicant is requesting some form of dis-
solvement to get some relief from the 120 -
metre zone." Bryan Yachuk, chair for the
Citizens for Carruthers, Said his group met
with Runnymede on April 10. o
"We're cautiously optimistic that there
will be some kind of satisfactory solution
before the OMB hearing," said Yachuk. c
"We've got a good possibility of coming to .5
a resolution. And hopefully we will." 00
