In an Oshawa publication recently, Christie said the Board would be hiring n rookie teachers this year to save money and prevent an aging teacher work farce. "Grey listing" is a practice whereby the Federation instructs its nnembers not to seek work in Durham or face penalties if they do so. Mosc oe suggested it as the Federation over- whelmingly endorsed a resolution opposing boards that practice hiring methods designed to cut costs or that discriminate against those with more than minimum qualifications or ex- perience. Moscoe said the Durham Board's attitude is a perfectexampie of the type of hiring practices opposed by the Federation. To hire purely on the basis of cost or age is discriminatory no matter how you cit It,' he said. This statement was con- firmed earlier this year by President George Meek.

Aug. 24, 1978 Opinion a page for expression for you and us . . A Sunset Low Gord Walker, Progressive Conservative M.P.P. for London South, introduced a Private Member's resolution calling upon the Ontario Government to insert a Sunset provision (i.e. automatic date for termination) for all government agencies, boards and commissions, to permit their periodic review in June. Mr. Walker stated that there is a growing sentiment among the public that something must be done to curb the ever-increasing demands on the taxpayer's dollar. "To a large extent, the Sunset Law answers that public demand. Sunset is a refined and sophisticated way for those in Legislatures such as ours to regain control of government", he said. "It does so by inserting an automatic termination in particular arms of government --that is, its agencies, boards and commissions• such that at a specific point in time these agencies, boards or commissions automatically terminate. However, if they have merit, then a new piece of legislation is passed and they are remandated for a further period of time", he stated. Mr. Walker has been an advocate of Sunset Law for several years. The Sunset Law has been tried in several states and has been rather successful. He stated that there are about 750 boards, agencies and commissions to which the Ontario Government makes appointments. In addition, he pointed out that as many as 200 new Bills are passed each year by the Ontario Legislature, some filled with hundreds of subsections. Our existing laws are contained in 5 volumes, each over 1.000 pages long. "My Sunset Resolution is an attempt to get a handle on these agencies, boards or commissions. It is an attempt to return to the Legislature, to the Cabinet, to the Minister and to the government in general the responsibility and accountability. What a Sun -set provision would do is to require these agencies• boards or commissions to periodically justify their existence to those who set them up in the first place. If the agency justifies its worth, then it is simple to pass new authority remandating its existence for another period of time", he said. "While I have restncted my resolution to agencies. boards and commissions, let me say that it has great application for all government programs, the assumption being that government programs should not be in place forever. Like hundreds of agencies, boards or commissions. programs should not be expected to be in place forever. without penodic consideration of their value", the M.P.P. said. That OHIP There is a great deal of debate going on these days at Queen's Park about the financing of our Ontario Health Insurance Plan. One suggestion is to pay for the cost from income taxes instead of via premiums. This presents no problem in itself, but the legislature committee is not recogruzwg one of the inequalities of the %% ole financing scheme. We point to the fact that those of us who pay premiums directly, are paying for a lot of other people indirectly as well. We refer to all those who get part or all of their premiums paid by their companies. Naturally, these costs are transferred to the price of their products or service and everyone pays. And, of course, all those who earn sufficient money pay also for those Ontarioans who get OHIP at no charge because the% have low income or none. To establish equality, perhaps consideration should be given to removing OHIP from all employer - employee agreements and making all of us pay a percentage of ourincome to the plan. Then everyone will pay according to his or her ability to pay. There is a lot of precedence for this idea. After all we have deductions made on our income each pay day for Un- dempioymertt Insurance, Canada Pension Plan and income t ax Group Homes Sir: Regarding the article "Group Homes Law Slowed" (News, Thursday.

Olsen. the he ship for New Horizons Travel, their agency at Finch Ave. F and Victoria Park A,. e Reply To Helping Re Dear Sir: With reference to your editorial "Helping Revolutionaries" (July 6, 1978), we should hie to point out that LUSO (the Canadian University Service Overseas) is a private, non-profit organization which raises a percentage of its funding from corporate and individual donors across Canada so that it can retain its independence and partake in development education work such as support for southern Africans in the white minority -led regimes. The Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) — — — — — — — — — — — — heanngs be carried out to advise of a charge to the official Plan as important as this. The facts clearly point out that such due process was not followed, despite claims by some to the contrary. The realissue is that the public has not been advised of the specifics of the proposed changed. As I pointed out to council during the debate of the by-law, we, as legislators, have a responsibility to assure that the public is aware, and both understands and supports these proposals - and this may be done only by involving them in a programme of public information. I believe this process is more than desirable, it is essential to solicit support for the group home concept. This was not done by Council, who indeed voted against such an initiative. If the Province is moving to de -institutionalize large remedial and correctional in- stitutions and to create in place a system of group homes in the community, such a move should be accompanied by an educational programme to gain understanding and ac- ceptance by the public. The only group home service user, that has made official continuing respresetation to Council, was on behalf of the mentally retarded by the Metropolitan Toronto Association for the Mentally Retarded, who have earned support by their responsible presentations at all meetings held on the policy. Where were all the others, and is it not responsible for Members of Council to ask for the opportunity to assess them and their programmes? What I did vote for at the June meeting of Council was for the principle of a group home policy and to have the by- law drafted and presented to Coucil. At that time, the record will show I attempted to change certain specifics, but no amendment was endorsed by a majority of Council. The most serious defiecinecy of the by-law is that it attempts to treat all group homes in the eight service programme categories as the same - contrary to our Solicitor's advice. I, as well as others on Council, want the public to have the opportunity toquestion the by-law, and I hope they will take the opportunity at the Council Meeting on August 14th. The by-law as proposed is not reasonable and, in its present form, will never earn my support, nor my vote. Yours Sincerely, Frank J. Faubert Alderman, Ward 5 �volutionaries funds our volunteer program, paying CUSO an allocation towards each volunteer's recruitment, orientation, travel and us=noe costs and our administrative expenses (since 1961 we have sent 6,000 volunteers to fill manpower gaps in developing countries) . However, the volunteers' salaries and the r housing needs are met by the countries requesting manpower -- not by CIDA or by LUSO. For this reason volunteers are paid at local rates which tend to be well below Canadian rates of pay for similar work. The small, self-help projects we support overseas are funded by privately -raised money matched on a three -to - one basis by CIDA. Our development education work is funded from the organization's reserves and NOT by the federal government. As Prime Minister Trudeau pointed out during the House of Commons Question Period on June 16, 1978, the govern- ment has no responsibility for CUSO. He added: "We do not control it, we do not direct what it should do or should not do. It does get funds from the government, as many non- government organizations do, but they are free to act and we do not try to dictate to them on the use of funds." Why does the federal government prefer to support an independent agency in the overseas manpower field? Because, as CIDA officials will tell you, an independent agency canget through the red tape quicker and can deal on a less partisan bass with overseas governments. CUSO volunteers who have been overseas and who have seen the situation for themselves in developing countries feel a moral obligation to tell those back home of global inequities and the suppression of human rights and to fight forsuch causes. Itis for this reason that CUSO is involved in development education. Sincerely, Maureen Johnson Information Officer 11111111 � 11111111 41111111 41111110 � Get With It Dear Sir: It is wonderful to see what some young people aspire to today, as example Carol Kumpel, Gold Medalist for the Commonwealth Games. Here is an example of what can be done with time spent after study. Obviously, this young champion has spent all her free time concentrating on that which she was interested in. I do hope other young people will be inspired by Carol's efforts, and find worthwhile projects to get into. It is such a pity to see the waste of youth, lounging without purpose on streets and plazas. For no good intent obviously! Get with it kids, and put your energies into something worthy. Bugging people on plazas and streets is for the deadbeats. M. Szabich, Wexford, Ont. Thurs.

The recommendation stated that this would result in an i wrease for the aldermen of $1,323 or 3.17%. Controller Brian Harrison, however, moved that the aldermen's salaries be increased by 5% of the aldermen's current salaries only, rather than the total of all Council salaries. resulting in a MW decrease from the Salary Review Com- mittee's proposal. Controller Ken Morrish agreed with Harrison's motion. "What does the total Council salary have to do with aldermen's in- creases?.. he asked.

Mr. Tom Bird of Fairglen Ave. told the committee that alternatives in lieu of the sidewalk could be either to remove the south- east gate entering into the school or reduce the speed limit on that area of Fairglen. Bird said he was "disappointed" that a new sidewalk was being con- sidered when "casts should be cut" Residents also organized a petition against the sidewalk. an action Alderman Watson praised in view of the fad the knew that the school property was worth more than theirs. "These people did a good job and got enough signatures even though they didn't have enough assessment,.. Warson said. In addition to the inquiry, to the Clerks Department, the committee also recommended that the Board of Educatim be requested to consider Bird's suugest ion about the gate removal and the possibility of another ew trance being constructed in the area.

"The Board recognizes that this is not an ideal situation and it regrets the inconvience which these changes will cause," said Pat Collie, chairman of the Scarborough Board of Edccation.

Scarborough Works & - Transportation Committee Scarborough Works and Transportation committee disussed the following items at a meeting held Aug. 17: FLOOD CONTROL During a briefing by W. J. Warwick, Executive Director Engineering Branch, the committee r learned that of 800 letters requesting the discon- nection of downspouts to control flooding in Bridlewood Community, 200 residnets have an- swered affirmatively. Mr. Warwick added that the Works Department needs 8D% of the down- spouts disconnected by residents in order for the flood control pian -put together by Paul Theil and the Bndhwood Community - to work effectively. The committee decided to send a letter to Mrs. Maureen Prinsloo, head of the Flood Committee for Bridlewood. asking her to pubiiciae the need for more - response ALL-WAY STOP The committee approved a staff recommendation for the installation of all -way stop signs at the in- tersection of Rochman Blvd. and Sedgenotmt Dr, because of a steady volume of traffic combined with the large number of children crossing this in- tersectim to get to public schools located an Sedgemount Dr. The signs to be installed this year will cost about $100. SPEEDING Residents of Castle Hill Dr. recently expressed concern that vehicles were speeding through the curves of the road and, due to the lack of sidewalks, endangering children. A petition signed by many of the residents asked the Works Depa rtment to consider placing stop signs at all intersections of Castle Hill Dr. However, Director of Transpartation W. Bolton said that Castle Hill Dr. is too long a stretch to place stop signs at all in- tersections. The com- mittee approved a staff recommendation to place an al) -way stop at Castle Hill Cr. and Narcap Ave. with Castle Hill being the stop street. _ PEDES'I'R IAN CROSSOVER The committee approved a staff recommendatim not to install a pedestrian crosswalk on Bridletowne Blvd. as requested by Mr. W. W. Lampart of the York Condominium Corp. A stud done by Works staff indicated that although pedestrians did experience some difficulty in crossing Beverly Glen. Blvd. and Huntinadale Blvd., no delays exceeded 40 seconds and a crosswalk could not solve some of the difficulties with vehicles exiting from the mall and apartment driveways. Instead, a "hidden in- tersection" sign is recommended at Brildetowne Circle north of Beverly Glen Blvd. for southbound vehicles, and Orlando Property Management for Bndiewood Mall will be requested to install stop controls on all vehicle exits from the shopping centre. _ BRIDE'S ., � PAIRTY ii I'eo/{eitifi� weicarw wpon Is plwNne a special WRY far a8 Eneped Qkb who Nur in East Yak.

I— -- — — — — — — — — — — — M�MF........................... ............................... I l ADDRESS ................. ON cA Bill Watt's World AT THE O'KEEFE: When Meredith Willson was the music director of the old Maxwell House Coffee Hour, he used to compose a new march every week....Thank Your Invisible Crew, Hit The Leather and such like titles. His love of spirited music was well and clearly evidenced. His humorous comments about ms boyhood revealed also his love of Mason City, Iowa, where he was barn and raised. These two loves were skilfully intertwined into The Music Man some two decades ago and the musical is still delighting audiences. Currently, it's at The O'Keefe where it is the final attraction of the summer season. Tony Randall is the spurious, but loveable, Professor Harold Hill and while he does not have the command of the role that Robert Preston had (who could?) he brings a pleasant presence to it that is quite ingratiating. His relatively light singing voice is often defeated by the dema rids of The O'Keefe and his dancing is little more than that which is at the command of anv professionally trained actor. But it doesn't matter. He is pleasant and the songs continue to be a del ight... Trouble. The Sadder -But -Wiser Girl, Marian The Librarian, Seventy -Six Trombones and the rest. Barney Martin (Jack Terwilliger on the Tony Randall Show) handles the part of Marcellus, Hill's sidekick, nicely as does veteran Benny Baker ( last seen in Very Good, Eddie) in his role as the pompous mayor. Linda Michele is essence of ingenue even though playing a late TRAVEL LIMITED Village Square Finch at Victoria Pk.

Singing honours must go as well to Nick Jolley, William Gillinsky, Gordon Bovinet and Joneal Joplin (hope I've got their names right) as the four gen- tlemen who harmonize in the best SPEBSQSA tradition. The original Buffalo Bills were not, I'm sure, any better. One partiailady enjoyed Lita Rose. Production. notes state that the choreography has been recreated by Tom Panko. My memory has failed me and I cannot recall who did the original but it has the stamp of Agnes DeMille. Whatever, it is spirited and easily lifts the spirits of the audience. In fad, that can be said about this production in summing up. It does indeed lift the spirits. It's good entertainment at any time of the year but it is perfect end -of -summer enjoyment. Don't miss it; and if you should run into a bearded gentleman who looks like Errol Flynn (so says my daughter) that'll be General Manager Tom Burrows. Be sure to thank him for a good summer season... as f do. AT THE EX: It was Vivian Cannell, I believe, who said there are two thi ngs that cannot long be damned up: mountain streams and one's racial heritage. The truth of that was brought home to me once again when I attended the opening night of The Scottish World Festival Tattoo. Yes, Weepy Wulhe did it again! I wept at the thrilling spectacle of pipes and drums, massed military bands and the savage charm of highlaM dancing. I wept at the dramatic poetry of John Whyte and the sweetness of Catherine McKinnon as she sang The Mull of Kintyre. (I had earlier heard Mr. Whyte singing at the Bandshell and hoped he would sing with Miss McKinnon. Maybe next year?)

Clearly, he was enthralled by his own voice and, equally dearly, he allowed that enthrallment to in- terfere with the proper performance of his duties. His timing was off and his cadences were those of a rookie announcer. Still, it was the only flaw in a memorable evening and one is already looking forward to next year. This Saturday. at The Grandstand, it's Sounds From Outer Space, starring Bans Brott with a 77 piece orchestra and William Shatner of Star Trek. The orchestra will play The Planets, Night o0 Bald Mountain, and Also Sprach Zarathustra. Mr. Shatner will perform from the works of H.G.Wdls and Arthur C. Clarke and Soleil Laser Fantasia lights Symphony of the Stars with the most sophisticated laser light show in existence. If there are still seats available, I suggest you do your da rndest to get some and enjoy this show. It's almost literallly "out of this world." ON RECORD: SIBELIUS, FINLANDIA/KARAJAN I A n g e I S-374081 Onorn►a tope is is the use of wards to simulate sound, but the tone poem is the use of sound to conjure up images. One of the masters of the tone poem was, and is, Sibelius. The proof is on this L.P. which contains, as well, The Swan Of Tuonela, En Saga and Tapiola. With the possible ex- ception of Keteby, no composer has ever better evoked mood or feeling of a country than Sibelius with his Firdandia. It is Finland... majestic and stirring. It's a war horse of course, and requires a strong conductor. Von Karajan conducting the Berlin Philharmonic ad- mirably fulfills the func- tion. Though this column has criticised him in the past for his excesses, all is forgiven after listening to his dynamic, but reverent, reading of these works. Would like to say more, but space is limited. Maybe I'll be able to comment further in a subsequent column. Weltschmerz ! DWIGHT TWILLEY/T- WILLEY DON'T MIND (Arista AB4140) That ridiculous title prompts the equally ridiculous com- ment: Willy Do Mind! Indeed, I do mind when a production such as this is presented as "reminiscent of much of the finest music that American rock 'n' roll has yet produced." The Dwight Twilley Band is said to claim a wide range of musical influences from Elvis Presley, the Everly Brothers and Buddy Holly to The Beatles and other British Invasion favourites. If that be so, then one can only comment that the influences they claim are the worst in- fluences. This corner doesn't like to come down hard on any musical of- fering because, after all, the appreciation of music is a highly personal thing and what one hates, another frequently loves. It might be that some will find value and enjoyment in this L.P. but your auditor can rind nothing of musical value at all It's a lljust a lot of noise and ridiculous lyrics trying to pass as straight up rock. If there are any hints of Presley, Holly, The Beatles d al, it has escaped me.

Fleury, however, main- tained that his depart- ment's recommendation to service the chirch by the driveway was best. On Puppeteer Board Bob Tilroe of Lawson Road, West Hill has been elected as a member of the Board of Trustees of the puppeteers of America. There are over 2500 members of this organization who are in- volved as professionals or hobbyists using puppetry in education, television en- tertainment, advertising. religion, dramatic stage production for adults, hospital therapy, library work, research, multi- cultural communications. Mr. Tilroe will be the Chairman of Consultant Services which provides Canadian. U.S. and in- ternational members with information related to their interests in puppetry. Non- members can also obtain assistance on a one time basis. The Tilnoe's maintain a puppetry collection in their Lawson Road home of many variations some of which have been displayed in Art Ga Series in Ontario. One of their puppets, a shadow figure called Young Standing Deer has been acquired for the Canadian collection of the Obraztsov Puppetry Museu min Moscow, USSR. In addition to his activities with PBA, Mr. Tilroe appears occasionally on TV Ontario (Channel 19). His Moet recent appearance was only a shadow and no one knew who he was other than the Shadow man on Camp TVO's summer series programme which related to puppetry for children. He is currently working on an arts appreciation course to be broadcast on TVO starting in September called Omnibus which can be seen Tuesday nights at 10 pm. Football Officials Needed The 1978 football season has arrived and, as usual, there is a busy fall schedule of ga mes in the Metropolitan Toronto area. This year there is an acute shortage of officials and the si tua tion is reaching the stage where all games cannot be covered. Prospective officials must have some afternoons free during September and October. Weekly training sessions, beginning Sept. 5, are held each Tuesday evening at St. Andrews Junior High School in North Yak.

Aug. 24,1978 Scarborough Board Of Control Notes Scarborough Board of Control discussed the following items at a meeting held Aug. 16: RESIGNATION The Board accepted with regret the resignation of Mr. A.W. Pradham from the Scarborough Ar- chitectural Advisory Committee. Because appointments to this committee are made an a yearly basis and regular meetings are not held, the vacancy willlnot be filled at this time. DRAFT PLAN AGREEMENT The Board has recom- mended to Council that the Regional Municipality of York and the Town of Markham be informed of its agreement in the draft plan for an industrial subdivision north of Steeles Ave. between the Leaside Hydro transmission line and Warden Ave. A major collector is also proposed to run north -south connecting Dennison Ave. with Steeles. Steeles is being widened as planned, and lots along Steeles are reversed to protect that street's function as a traffic artery. THREE BY-LAWS A staff recommendation asking that Council object to a City of Toronto by-law was approved by the Board. The by-law, one of three identical ones ap- plying to the City and former Villages of Sawsea and Forest Hill, are part of an attempt to gain a greaterdegree of control over the construction of bachelorette apartments. The only impact the by- laws have on Scarborough is that parking standards for "converted dwellings" and "converted ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION East Toronto - Branch 11 9 Dawes Road, EastToronto AVAILABLE FOR: RECEPTIONS, PARTIES b BANQUETS Phone 699-1353 Canadian Legion Hall 2,43 Coxwell Ave. Baron Bung AVAILABLE FOR RECEPTIONS - PARTIES - BANQUETS Phone A65-0120 Royal Canadiap legion BRANCH 345 81 Peard Rood, Toronto HALLS AVAILABLE FOR RECEPTIONS, DANCES AND EUCHRE 759-5291 Talk with our FBDB Management Services Representative about GOVERNMENT PROGRAMMES TO ASSIST BUSINESS Perhaps there is some form of financial and or non- financial assistance that will benefit vour business.

However, the staff recommendation stated that the proposed. parking amendments for these dwellings may lead to parking problems on Victoria Park Avenue. OMB APPEAL The Board received as information the results of an appeal by Donald Brown to the Ontario Municipal Board after Scarborough Committee of Adjustment dismissed his application for a ane -story addiction into a two-story family dwelling. The OMB granted the variance on condition that the addition be set back a minimum of seven feet from the south-easterly corner of the existing house. $TS Million Insulation Plant To Come In September Installation of production line equipment, including a high capacity electric melt furnace, is nearing com- pletion at the new $25 million Fiberglas Canada Ltd. insulation plant in Scarborough. The new plant. located on a 50 acre site in the Markham Rd. - Passmore Ave. area, will employ nearly 200 people in plant and office jobs when it comes on stream this September. The ultra modern plant covers about 8 acres, in- cluding the batch house and warehousing space. The initial production line is positioned to allow in- stallation of a second, parallel. line to double the plant's present rated capacity, when and as required, according to plant manager, Earl Mogk. The plant was originally planned to come into production in the Spring of 1979, but construction was accelerated to bring it into production this September. The new facility is the latest addition in a multi- million collar expansion program carried out by Fiberglas Canada in the last few years to increase supplies of insulation material in response to the rising cost of energy. The program includes a $9 million plant in Moncton, N.B.; a $6 million ex- pansion in Sarnia, Ont., Which includes the world's largest electric melt fur- nace. and 56 million ex- pansions in both the Montreal and Edmonton plants.

It is fast growing and can stand neglect and will tolerate over and under watering better than any other house plant. The `Sprengeri' variety is the most popular of the asparagus ferns and the most hardy. This is a super plant for a hanging basket with its 6 foot stems of needle-like yellowish green Shoots. The soil must be well - draining. Adding a little sand will help to improve the drainage. Asparagus ferns prefer 1 � Thurs.

The root system contains little bulbous nodules which store water therefore they are able to withstand some drought, but try to keep the soil moist. These plants like to be kept humid, so try to mist often. They also like good ventilation. Feed the plant all year with a good all-purpose fertilizer. Cutoff, at the soilline, any stems which turn brown. This helps to keep your plant looking neat. AUGUST IS HERE August seems like a lazy month butdon't forget your plants. Pay attention to the watering needs of your plants and keep up with the regular feeding schedule. Keep your plants away from air conditioners if you don't want them to turn brown. Still take cuttings to grow indoors all wirier and then put them out for early colour next spring. Try cuttings of was begonias, ageratumus, fuchsias and geraniums. Petunias can be transplanted into pots or baskets to bring in over winter. For a colourful change and you have the room, plant seeds of dwarf maragDlds or nasturtiums in a sunny window and you'll have summer in winter' DIVIDE YOUR SNAKES Do vou have a snake plant that needs repotting? f' Perhaps you'd like to divide it into many plants.

Aug. 24,19ye Queen's Park Report PROPERTY TAX REFORM - CONCLUSION This is the final in a series of seven articles on property tax reform that I have prepared for submission to this publication. Over the past weeps, I have discussed the need for the property tax, why reform is necessary and have outlined very generally the problems with thepresent system for taxing residences, commercial/industrial property, farms, vacant land and government property. I have also touched very briefly on provincial grants and outlined for you a few of the alternatives to the present system that are being considered. These are the issues that I believe affect the residents of Durham West to the greatest extent. 'However, they are by no means the only issues surroun- d ng the property tax. I could probably devote another five columns to cottage properties; mining in rtyms; railways and pipelines; unorganized area and the sharing of property taxes between laver and upper tier municipal governments. As well, many questions my constituents have asked remain unanswered. For instance, there appears to be a fairly, widespread belief that assessment at market value would encourage higber prices for houses. The answer to this question lies with the definition of "market value" in the legislation. We must clearly state that the "market" dictates the assessment value, and provide for the proper procedure to ensure this is the case. People who presently live in a home situated on a large lot are very anxious about an increase in taxes. To these people. I would say it is true, your taxes will likely increase FOOD MARKETHills jridge Stacey'sVi-n Instant Skim 51 39 Milk Powder save $1.36 '?tile it Lasts 112 flavours to choose from t Chapman': carton2 litre Ice Cream 1 m 3 per family �C Al Red Brand Boneless Round Steaks or Roasts a 1" Al Red Brand Regular Minced Beef Ib $119 Nescafe Now Fresh Flavour I a r g e %5 I was appointed to the Select Committee on Hydro Affairs Instant Coffee 10 oz. jar S in November. 197'1. A Select Comun;ctee is. as &b.- n.mne implies, a special committee appointed by the Legislature to inquire into a specific matter. In that it is ret a Standinkq t M.P.P. Durham West George Ashe, with reform. But not by too much because the Government of Ontario is adament that the residential property owner will carry less of the overall property tax burden. And any increase that does occur will probably be phased in over a period of up to five years providing ample time to adjust. Many cottage owners have told me they do not feel they should have to pay full taxes on cottage property, because they only use their cottage for a few months out of each year. If this argument were considered valid, then likewise permanent residents in cottage areas could claim they do not require the sophisticated roadway system leading to and from cottage areas, and therefore they should not be obliged to contribute through taxes to the cost of providing this service. Lack of use of essential services, such as roads, fire and police, does not reduce the cost or providing such services. A cottage and the land it is on is a petmaoeot fulltime investment and should not carrry with it part time costs. R is also a fact that more and more people are using their recreation property on a partial year-round basis. For the foregoing reasons, it is anticipated that with reform, Property taxes on cottages will be calculated the same way as residences, and would in most inatances be increased. Just to touch briefly on our immediate neighbour to the west, Metro Toronto, it is in this community with the largest concentration of population in Ontario, that the most out- standing inequities are to be found, particularly in the City itself. Many single family residences in the City of Toronto are so severely underassessed that if property tax reform based on market value assessment were to be introduced today, it would cause the average taxes to rise by clave to :16D. Presently there are homes in the City taxed at 1940 values, and about 47,000 homes benefit from the preferred rate given to veterans' residences shortly after World War 1. In very few instances is the original owner stall in residence. Because of this, tax relief is now being given to taxpayers whose inane does not warrant it, and whose homes are valued as high as i15o,000. This is just another indication of how inequitable the Present property tax system really is. Even though reform has been indefinitely postponed, I believe it is my obligation to present the facts to my constituents as dearly as Possible, and to strew to you that solutions must be found. If, and when, we proceed with reform measures, I intend to cmmhwt open meetings within the Durham West Riding, to - provide my constituents with an opportunity to ask questions. so that I can address in more depth individual specific cornceros. It is my hope that these articles have succeeded in giving you at least a general idea of the inequities within the present system, and the direction that I would like to see the Government take to correct these inequities. It is my personal opinion that we must proceed with property tax reform just as quickly as possible, and I will continue to impress this upon my colleagues in the Government at every opportunity. N you believe as I do that equity is the only fair base for NW tax system, then I hope you will openly support the concept of property tax reform, even though there is no doubt that such reform will bring with it 'Nvinneim" and gases .

Representation on the Committee is from all parties in approximate numbers equal to representation in the Legislature. In the case of the Hydro Committee, membership is. - six P.C., four Liberal, and four N.D.P. As you can see, the Opposition Members outnumber Govern- ment Members eight to six. The Committee, in its deliverations during January and February, looked into the uranium contracts that Hydro had negotiated with two companies for Ontario uranium. These contracts were to guarantee a fuel supply needed to operate our nuclear power plants for the next forty years. Although we heard witness after witness for several weeks telling us what a good deal this was for Ontario Hydro and hence its consumers, the Committee's recommendation (not binding) to the Government fell along party lines. The Government Members, including myself, based on the evidence and staff recommendation, felt the contracts should be signed. The N.D.P. suggested, as usual, Government ownership of the mines, by nationalization if necessary. The Liberal Members recommended not signing the contracts but had no alternate solution to the guaran- teed supply problem. The Government, based on the evidence, and the lack of consensus and hence guarangeed a fuel supply, for its nuclear generating stations for at least the next four decades. During the summer recess of the Legislature, the Com- mittee is looking into the heavy water supply and demand issue and the cost overrun involved in the construction at the Bruce heavy water plant site. The Committee has just finished six weeks of hearings on this issue and will be finalizing its report to the Legislature, on the issue, during mid September. I will, in another column during the next wneek or two, discuss the heavy water issue in more detail. In closing today's report, I would like to remind, and in- vite, one and all to the P.C.
