It never ceases to amaze us that governments of all levels, knowing that the public debt is rising constantly, insist on putting more and more of our dollars - which we haven't got - into projects which are really the role of private enter- prise. And it doesn't seem to matter whether their party hue is pink or blue, the onward rush to spend our tax dollars which we haven't paid yet, continues at a great rate. Take the dome stadium. Here the Metro Toronto govern- ment which is composed of representatives of our local governments has approved of the expenditure of $30 million for the dome. When our dollar is floundering on the American money markets and our interest rates are climb- ing making life difficult for most of us, our local politicians are eager to take another $30 million and throw it on a building in order to keep the weather off keen sports people! Think about it! How ridiculous can governments get' It is time that private enterprise pay for this dome stadium. where ever it is built. Frankly, if we take the American way, we would sell every keen sports type a seat for $1000 each and ask the beer barons to kick in millions. After all, it is their product which will get the most use at the games. There must be numerous private enterprises which would benefit from such a dome. Why not cut them in on the action and make them pay into the pot. We don't believe that one red cent of tax money should go to the dome stadium. Government should stay out of enter- prise projects. What do you think'.' Isn't Life Good? Canada is reputed to have the most people in prison, percentagew-ise. than any other country in the world. We used to wonder %%-by, %then we know our society isn't that bad or criminalized. But when a prisoner in jail on four life sentences gets taken to a swanky restaurant in a downtown Montreal area so he can enjoy a "day pass" it makes one wonder. Perhaps we get a lot of prisoners because that life is so easy" The episode in Montreal this past week must be jolting a lot of Canadians to wonder just who is suffering - the criminals or the injured! Already some top officials have offered a weak explanation that this particular prisoner was so good that he earned a day out into society. Perhaps society should be asked if it wants a four times murderer prowling the streets. It seems that the suffering by the innocent parties in a shooting or murder is greater than the punishment to the criminal. which suggests that our governments are not do- ing the job which most of us think they should be doing. Do you think rmurderets in prison for four different murders should get passes and mm in society' Equality There is casiderabhe unrest in the Glenwatford Dr.Sheppard Ave. E. area of Agincourt over a change of character in the community. While most people find incoming people friendly and cooperative, there appears to be two sets of laws. While long term businesses seem to get the full weight of the many thousands of Scarborough bylaws, new businesses, run by Asian standards, appear to be able to avoid our many laws. Any Sunday one can find numerous shops open in this area, which seems to violate the store closing laws. While merchants at Harbourfront get summoned to court, nothing seems to happen in Agincourt. The answers which residents of long standing get from both city officials and elected representatives are not satisfactory. Telling someone to sell up and leave town is not the kind of response a 30 year resident is happy to hear. In our opinion, the equal application of laws to all people in the area would help to dissipate a growing anger which could explode into violence. We believe some action should be taken by the city now to avoid future problems.

Mr. White opened the home at 3841 i 31esm re Rd. near Morningside in December. The two-storey structure provided accom- modation for about twelve mea.

May 9, 1964 Bill Watt's Worlds ON YOUR TOES: As the second offering of the current engagement at The O'Keefe, the National Ballet has chosen to pre- sent three one act works. The fust is Act II: The Kingdom of the Shades from La Bayadere. It is a story of love that transcends death and it should be very moving. Perhaps it is for some but on the two occasions on which we have seen it we have not been notably mov- ed. Truth to tell, we have found it curiously flat. Mind you, it's a set piece and depends in large measure upon the corps for maximum effect. It's possi- ble that one pays too much attention to individual members of it and doesn't or can't appreciate the whole. Given a large corps, all members cannot be of equal skill and we are afraid that our eyes are caught by those whose skills are not of the uniform standard. Certainly. that was the case at our most recant viewing. Although the corps performed well in totality our attention was caught by a few young ladies who seemed ner- vous. Perhaps they were, perhaps it was just a bad night for then - heaven knows they're entitled - but it was a distraction never- theless. Yoko Ich no and Kevin Pugh danced the principal roles. Even the fragile Miss Ichino and the dynamic Mr. Pugh cannot transcend the pedestrian choreography into the gen- tle ertle passion called for by the premise of the ballet. Surely reunion after death should engender more emotion than a few spirited exercises of the dancer's art! And we refuse to assess any fault against the two dancers. Fault, if any, lies with the choreography. Mlles. Martine Lamy. Kim Lightheart and, we believe, Gloria Luoma (the pre -curtain announcement of a replacement was con- fusing) acquitted themselves nicely in trio and individually but their efforts merely succeeded in whetting one's appetite for some passion. About the only thing in the ballet that approached the wine of passion rather than mere lemonade intimacies were the gorgeous ar- rangements by John Lan- chber'ry of the rather In- sipid music of John Minkus. New conductor Alexander Btezina made the orchestra almost cry them out. Passion is the rationale for the second work. When we saw it in premiere we wrote Sphinx shirr. After seeing it in encore we have no reason to change our original assessment. The story is simple. The Speer has the hots for a man, any man, and makes it finally with Oedipus and goes back to being a sphinx. Big coital deal' Danny Grossman probably likes it. Anyway, Gizella Witkowsky was Sphinx, David Nixon was Oedipus and Owen )Montague was Anubts. All three have our most heart felt sympathy. And, we must also express sympathy to George Crum who had the most difficult conducting assignment of the evening in trying to make a silk purse out of the sow's ear score of Bohuslav Martinu. The final work was the latest by Constantin Pat- salas. You must believe us when we insist that we real- ly have nothing against the young man but simply can- not understand why he is retained as resident choreographer. His stuff might be good - we think not - but it surely doesn't receive popular acclaim. His latest is Oiseaux Ex- otiques. It's only marginal- ly better than some of his earlier works. This time he has opted for a score by Harry Freedman. In a Latin American vein it sounds like second rate Morton Gould who was a second rate Andre Kostelanetz in any case. Once in a while there is a snatch of melody but it's soon swept away on a cloud of dischord. His choreography is no better than it ever has been. It's filled with ner- vous twitterings supposed- ly representative of exotic birds in the mating season. Hell. he's even introduced birdcalls and embarrassed dancers must trill them while trying something, anything. to give meaning to what is little more than classically funky chicken. And, at that.

Such is the power of Karen Kain's personality that she shone in her brief appearance but that's about all there is of any consequence. Oiseaux Exotiques has its place, one supposes, as a workshop presentation but we suggest it has no place in the repertoire of a com- pany such as the National Ballet. BIG SCREEN: Ontario Place opens of- ficially this Saturday but we understand that show- ings start tomorrow at Cinesphere of the latest film commissioned for showing there. We mean Journey Of Discovery and we highly recommend it for your visual and auditory pleasure. In our view it lacks the sheer power of Catch The Sun ( still our favourite) but it more than compensates with its charm. It is a series of tableaux intersticing views of On- tario as it is now, as it was in the past - both recent and fairly distant - and as it might well be in the future.

IN THE CLUB& Well once again it's time for us to essay the role of the little boy in The Emperor's New Clothes. Aft open- ing �tattending tube Imperial Room we really must speak out about the perfor- mance of Sarah Vaughan. She is called The Divone One. She might better be called the absent-minded one. She was 25 minutes late starting and offered no explanation to the restksa audiemoe. No entertainer has a following large enough and loyal enough to tolerate such cavalier treatment. Her voice is as good as ever, maybe even better. She has a good range, power and sweetness, lightness and passion. But, oh how she misuses it! When she speaks it's with a cracker accent that we are sure is not hers. Further, she mumbles in a way that makes one wonder if she is suffering from khose dem- tures. When she sings it's like Billy Eckstine with tight underwear. Hazel Scott used to play an improvisatory musical game called Find the Melody. We suggest that Miss Vaughan is playing Find the Tempo. One recognizes s that the tempta- tion for a performer to play lames with songs sung pro. bably thousands of times before must be strong. We like to think we're tolerant of a little game playing but Sarah Vaughan seems to be doing it with every song. At one point she mumbled that we might remember the lovely slow violet Time After Time.

May 9, 1984 7th Annual Women's Games June 16-17 The seventh annual Col- gate Women's Games, the largest track and field event for women in Canada is to be held June 16th and 17th at Etobicoke Centen- nial Stadium. Colgate-Palmolive Canada initiated the Col- gate Women's Games in 1978 after recognizing that women had not been given the same opportunity as their male counterparts to develop their athletic skills. These games provide a forum of competition at the grassroots level, perhaps the single most important area of development in the future of track and field in this country. The Games, as well as of- fering our young women a high level of competition, provide an opportunity for the novice to compete with our country's top calibre athletes. That in itself urges our young athletes to aim for the top. The event, open to all females ten years of age or older, now attracts over 2000 entries annually. The first day of competi- tion features those athletes 15 years of age and under and as past history has in- dicated, it will be from this group that many of Canada's future stars and Olympians will emerge.

Day two of competition is directed to those young women 16 years and older and feature some of Canada's top athletes. The meet is noteworthy in that it is the only corporate sponsored event that does not require an entry fee from the competitors. In addition, each female that competes in the Colgate Women will be the reci- zg- pient of a free T-shirt.

I am pleased to inform you of our upcoming parental workshop in Catbolic Education to be held on Sat. May 12th at the Catholic Education Center, 80 Sheppard Ave. E. from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The board will offer three parent members cif each school association ( P.T.A.) the opportunity to participate in our fust board -wide workshop. Theme of this hopefully fust an- nual parent workshop will be "Parents and School Associa- tx ss: Their Invdrennent in Catholic Echwation Throughout the 80's". The board at its regular meeting held in December 1983 approved funds and plans to sponsor this workshop. The Director of Education has surveyed the school associations in all Metro Catholic schools as to suggestions for topics and the most suitable date for this historic event. The survey results indicated a very strong interest in such school themes as: 1. A community school. 2. The role of volunteers in Catholic Stools. 3. The role and activities of Catholic school associations ( P.T.A.) - rights of parents. 4. M.S.S.B. Finance -preparation of budgets. 5. Relgious Education in elementary and secondary Catholic schools. 6. Extension of funding for secondary schools. Each stool association is entitled to send three parent representatives and not necessarily executive members. There is no charge. lunch will be provided and there is am- ple underground parking available at the Catholic Educa- tion Center. Tule keynote speaker will be Dr. Edward Nelligan, Director of Education -Emeritus for the Metropolitan Separate School Board. Dr, B.E. Nelligan was Director of Educaiton for the M.S.S.B. for a period of 18 years. This refreshing event will end with the concelebra- tion of the Sacrifice of the Mass. I would like to encourage all of the members of the school associations in my ward to take advantage of this golden opportunity by Providing three parent delegates from each Catholic elementary and secondary school in Ward 21, Scarborough East.

In these days of inflation and high prices it is hard to believe anything comes free, but Rev. Butler pointed out to tis there are still a few things which money cannot buy. Health is one, character or integrity also fall into this category and the greatest free gift of all is love. Matey can pay for health care but it cannot prevent the disease from striking. A good character or in- tegrity is some&AM built up from within, whether it remains that way is an in- dividual choice. Love perhaps is the greatest of all and it has to be freely given. And the greatest love comes from God through Jesus Christ and for this there is "No Charge". We hope to see all our old friends and hopefully some new ones at our Seniors' Luncheon on Mon.

Roger Worth It's a weird, weird world. If you don't agree, lust consider a few of the latest Mppertings both at home and abroad. . . . In an effort to provide Cana- dians with a bigger chunk of the oil industry, the federal govern- ment set up Petro -Canada, which used taxpayer dollars to pay a high price for, first, Petrofina, then British Petro- leum. In this way, it was ar- gued, Canadians would be able to purchase petroleum prod- ucts from their very own oil company, thus saving us all money in the long run. Many Canadians didn't agree with the new policy, but at least there was a certain amount of logic attached to the proposition. So what does the fledgling Petro -Canada announce? The organization will be closing down 400 service stations across the country. Somehow, that doesn't compute. Shouldn't Petro - Canada be opening. rather than closing, stations as it at- tempts to take its products available to snore and more of its taxpayer -owners? The wonderful world of in- ternational finance is perhaps unfolding as it should. Over the years the international banks (inaidins Canada's) loaned too many billions of dollars to third world and par- ticularly South American countries. when some recip- ients of the funds couldn't even pay the debt charges on the money, the once prudent bankers loaned them more money to cover the interest payments. N1ow that may sound tike an odd way to operate a bank, but it is the latest move in the world of in- ternational finance that seems to conte directly from Alice in Wonderland. The bankers, it seems, have allowed several countries to lend a few billion dollars to a neighbor so the interest can be paid on some of the borrower's huge loans. What's mind-boggling is that high risk Mexico, which owes the bankers almost as much as anyone else in the world, was one of the lenders. That's a lot like one bankrupt individual bailing out another by lending money he or she doesn't have. . . . The principle of connecting compensation to results seams a good one. If a company's managers can double or triple profits, then those responsible for the good results deserve bonuses. latching onto a good con- cept, the eke that run the coun- try's Crown (government- owned) corporations have taken the age-old business concept one step further. Recently. Crown -owned air- craft oomg ies awarded hefty bonuses to their top awcutives. What's wrong with that? Last year these companies chalked tip the largest losses in Canadians corporate history. The new question, of course, is what would occur if by some miracle the Crown corpora- tion actually made money. Would the executives take a pay cut? The top brass needn't worry.

Student Parliament: To enhance the celebration of On- tario's Bicentennial ducting Education Week, 1984, the On - tarso Secondary School Students' Association co-ordinated a "Student Parliament" on May 2, 1964. I was pleased to meet my counterpart - as the "M.P.P. fon Durham West" - Paula Marie Hadden - a Grade 12 student of Dennis O'Connor High School in Whitby at the Legislature last Wednesday. Paula was selected to represent Durham West in the Stu- dent Parliament and I understand that the day's events were most interesting" "Bicentennial In Bloom": On Thursday, May 10, Premier William Davis will place the final plant in a Bicentennial flower bed to mark the opening day of a `Bicentennial in Bloom" contest. This event will take place at Cullen Gardens & Miniature Village and is being coordinated by Weall & Cullen Nurseries, 590 CKEY, MTV -47 and the Ontario Bicentennial Celebrations. "Bicentennial in Bloom" encourages Ontarians to beautify the province by planting flowers in pots, planters or gardens in arrangements reflecting our heritage. Ballots and contest rules are available at Cullen Gardens & Miniature Village. It is appropriate that one of our Region's finest totrist at- traction - Cullen Gardens - has taken a leadership role in en- couraging all Ontarians to participate in -Bicentennial In Bloom" as we celebrate our Bicentennial together. Commemorative Scrolls: The Province of Ontario has in- corporated the Bicentennial theme in the design of com- memorative scrolls presented to Ontarians celebrating 50th and succeeding wedding anniversaries or 90th and suc- ceeding birthdays. If a family or friend is celebrating one of these mi estoens, please call my Riding Office (683-6707) and provide them with details of the celebration. Arrangements will then be made to have the appropriate congratulatory scroll prepared. I would be honoured to at- tend the celebration, to present the scroll and bring per- sonal greetings, as well as bring greetings on behalf of Premier William Davis. Ontario's Bicentennial means ''Celebrating together" and we're off to a great start in Durham West!' Speaking To You Scot Fennel M.P. Ontario Riding In tecerlt months, the amount of evidence has increased which supported the fact that Canada's tax collection system, which was once the most fair and effective, is now undergoing a crisis. I have noticed that over the last year, the number of requests for assistance that I have received from my constituents regarding a problem with Revenue Canada, has increased dramatically. As you have not doubt read, many of my colleagues have been experiencing the same problem. Our attexripts to ob- tain positive answers from the Minister were not getting us anywhere, and the Minister refused to form an all party in- quiry into the allegations of incompetence of Revenue Canada. Therefore, Mr. Mulroney formed a P.C. Task Force, headed by the Hon. Perrin Beatty, and the goal of the Task Force was to give Canadians an opportunity to ex- press their ideas about how to improve the way income taxes are collected in Canada. The Task Force has completed it's report, and it has made numerous recommendations to improve the tax system. These recommendations are suggested as measures to make the system better in three important ways: 1) It will be more fair, 2) It will be more accountable and 3) It will be more effective. The P.C. Party feels that the Ministershould create a tax- payers' Bill of Rights, whereby the taxpayer would be assured of the right to privacy, the right to be presumed in- nocent until proven guilty, the right to fair and courteous treatment and the right to full and timely information. We feel that the senior official of the local tax offices should be more accessible to the public, and the Minister should meet regularly with Revenue staff across Canada. We also feel that the Minister, along with his senior of- ficials, should regularly hold public meetings, thereby ob- taining the views and needs of the taxpayers. At the same time, this would improve the lines of communication bet- ween the public and Revenue Canada officials, which has become so poor, particularly in the collections area. These are only a few of the many recommendations that the Task Force has presented to, and unanimously endors- ed by the P.C. Party. T
