Members of the Durham
Board of Education are
concerned over a recent
government proposal,
which, if implemented,
would alter the present
method of funding the
public school system by
shifting revenues from
taxes collected locally to
the province.
Known as the Martin
model, the Durham Board
says that it is an attempt by
the province to achieve
greater equity among
public and separate school
boards through the
mechanism of pooling com-
mercial and industrial
assessment on a province -
wide basis.
above the maximum Or-
dinary Expenditure Ceil-
ings provided by the
Ministry of Education (in
1984, $2,297 for each
elementary school pupil
and $3,140 for each secon-
dary school pupil) would
raise the above -ceding por-
tion by levying taxes on
residential and faun pro-
1lerties-
These taxes would be at
the boards' disposal to
cover education costs.
However, boards would
also be required to mise an
equivalent levy on com-
mercial and industrial pro-
perties, the revenue from
which would be sent to the
Ontario Government to be
1ecluded in a pool of such
assessment.
The monies contained in
that pool would then be
redistributed by the
Idumazy of Education, ac-
cording to a forumla not
yet revealed, to school
boards across the province.
The Durham Board
points out that the level of
the per pupil provincial
grants has decreased
significantly in recent
years from the 60% funding
commitment made by the
government in 1915, and as
a result, few boards in the
province can operate
within the imposed ceil-
ings.
To illustrate using the
latest available statistics
on grant levels and board
expenditures, in the
elementary schools 82 of
121 public and separate
boards were over ceiling;
only two of 71 boards in the
secondary schools func-
tioned within or below the
The Durham Board con-
curs with the ministry's ef-
forts to restrain overspen-
ding, but feels that con-
crete action in this direc-
tion is extremely difficult
given the escalating costs
of offering programs and
services required by the
government itself and by
local communities.
If the Martin model is im-
plemented, the Durham
board points out that the
province will have access
for the fust time to a con-
siderable slur of money
which has traditionally
been a source of local
revenw.
Members of the Durham
Board are counting on the

What About The East
Mr. Davis?
The announcement this week that the grandiose plans of
the Davis government for transit in the future have been
"put on hold" fits the apparent philosophy of this govern-
ment which is to give everything to the west of Metro Toron-
to - but never to the east.
It is not too long ago that the same Minister of Transporta-
tion James Snow told a Scarborough audience that the pro-
posed highway 407 running north of Metro through
Markham to the proposed Pickering airport "was on hold".
However• in the west end, without much fanfare, Highway
409 was built to speed up entry to the airport and Highway
403 has been built to ease the load of traffic around the 401
going west and bringing commuters to Metro Toronto.
Looking over on the east side of Metro we have a hold on
the Spadina Expressway which has poured an excessive
amount of traffic on to the Don Valley Parkway. We have
the southern Scarborough Expressway stopped leaving the
Gardiner expressway output to pour up the lonely roadway
- the Parkway. Meanwhile in the west commuters can roll
for miles along the Queen Elizabeth Highway or take the
Highway 401. Motorists in the east have been awarded only
one highway east and west - the 401.
So the net result of the Davis government's actions is that
development of housing and industry tends to go to the west
where roads help industry move its products and com-
mutes can get to Metro dlowntown easier. This results in
more people wanting to live on the west side of Metro
Toronto. Of course, we should point out that Premier
William Davis and the Minister of Transportation James
Snow both live on the west side of Metro Toronto and it ap-
pears that they are very definitely loading the scales
against eastern development. We hope that the represen-
tatives from Scarborough. Pickering and east are saying a
few words to this "west side" premier and reminding him
that Ontario voters expect equality of service, not all in his
own backyard.
It may be the Pickering airport hangup which Bill Davis is
experiencing. Ever since the NDP gave him a minority
government for one term of office. Mr. Davis has rehgiouu-
ly avoided doing anything to help roads or transit in the
direction of this airport site. This, of course, is ridiculws
because the federal government gave him the choice of
sites for the area's second airport - and Bill Davis picked
Pickering. Now he has decided to have development around
Metro go west and the east can go "on hold" for ever.
We would like to predict that one of these days in the not
too distant future, motorists, who live in the east and pay
the same taxes, but have more aggravation about driving.
are going to revolt against a government which insists on
ignoring the eastern side of Metro Toronto for transit and
roads. We should point out. too, that the Don Valley
Parkway and the 401 are loaded and sensible planning must
produce more roadways to allow the ever growing traffic to
disperse to the outer suburbs on the east side of Metro.

"SOMETHING TO
CARE ABOUT'
The Microchip and Christianity
by
Rev. Malcolm Card
.Much of our world has little to do with religion and
church. It could be said that religion in the west has
fallen on had times and we are in a post Christian era.
The microchip has taken the place of the communion
wafer as a means of faith The reading of the Dow -tones
and Toronto Stock Exchange has taken the place of the
Bible as a daily aid for life
I would suggest that while Christianity is losing
influence in the west that in fact Christianity trade
possible the microchip. I would further suggest that
Christianity has made possible the development of the
Columbia space shuttle. coloured television and the
home computer.
Nicolas Berdvaer in The .Cleaning of History wrote
it is impossible for man t„ build railroads, invent the
telegram or telephone. while living in fear of demons
Christianity has had a large place to play in the
creation of our society as xe know it The Feminist
movement. and the Peace movement have found
support from the pages of the Bible While the church
might not favour these through misinterpretation and
shortsightedness, the Bible has supported these things
for two thousand years
Mark 5:1-1ri tells the story of a wild. uncontrollable
man, who lived among the graves. He was controlled by
demons and uncontrolled by men. But Jesus cast the
demons out. The scriptures described this wild man in
verse 15 as "sitting fully clothed and sane,
Man does not have the energy or potential to think,
discover or create if he has a confused mind Only as
man finds meaning in life can he find the energy and
genius in life to create.
John M :32 says that the truth will set us free.
Christianity set men free from the demons of the past
so that he can brave the unknown of the future. Faith
in God need not be lessened by the microchip or any
other invention of the 21st century.
Gal gave us the world wrapped up in a mystery. God
gave us the inquiring mind and the intelligent will to
undertake the challenge of outer space and the inner
mind. The integration of the ancient truth of the
scriptures and the most up-to-date truth of the sciences
and technology is one of the neediest areas in modern
scholarship. We need to continue to research and
speculate and probe all the while being aware of the
ultimate truths that we have in God.

Escalating Mortgage
Rates Slowing Real Estate
Escalating mortgage interest rates held the residential
real estate market in check in April, according to William
E. Dickson, president of the 5b,0oo member Canadian Real
Estate Association (CREA ).
Although April is traditionally the month in which the
highest number of purchases are made through the Multi-
ple Listing Service ( MIS ). April this year was merely on
par with March, he noted.
"High mortgage interest rates will shatter the home buy-
ing plant of many families this year," said Dickson, "at a
time when they had high hopes of realizing their ambition to
become home owners."
"The fact is that renters with the average annual
household income of $24,617 can no longer qualify for any
mortgage except a one-year term at 12 1 2 percent if they
require a $60,000 mortgage. They cannot qualify for the go-
ing rate for a five-year mortgage of 141.4 percent."
The difference in monthly payments on a $60,000 mortgage
amortized over 25 years when interest rates climb from 12
to 14 1 4 percent - as they have recently - for mortgages
with a five-year term is $96.99 a month, he noted.
-111: is unfortunate that when the economy is showing signs
of recovery that high interest rates are not only adversely
affecting the housing market, but other segments of the
economy too which, in turn, will only increase unemploy-
ment," Dickson said.
What Is Love?
Love is a strange emotion,
Full of passion and desire,
All consuming and overbearing.
It eats away the soul
It destroys reason,
It distorts the sense of order in life.
But can one live without it?
Without love, life becomes a meaningless shell.
There, for all practical purposes,
But hollow within
Without love, the resonance of life
Becomes a mere echo.
So don't hide from love,
Enjoy its warmth, its fulfillment,
Each moment you can.

Tenants Face Eviction
by (fay Abbate
Two Hundred Scar-
borough tenants, who owe
their landlord hundreds of
dollars in back rent as a
result of a 25% rent in-
crease allowed by a rant
appeal board, are now fac-
ing
aning an additional 15% in-
crease.
Tenants of 27011 Lawrence
Ave. E. attended a rent
review hearing last week to
argue that their landlord,
Carbon Jubilee In-
vestmennts Ltd., should not
be given anything more
than the 6% increase he is
allowed.
The residents will pro-
bably appeal the decision
of the Residential Tenancy
Commission if it goes
against them.
The residents of this
limited dividend building,
which means the owner
was given special low mor-
tgage rates in exchange for
charging reduced rents,
are still trying to come up
with the money to pay the
back rent owed for 1982.
Some tenants owe as
much as $1200. Many of the
tenants are having trouble
paying what they owe
because they did not put
the money aside
throughout 1962 in case
t� appeal went against
The landlord is now
demanding his money but
has agreed, through his
agent Bert Reitter, to make
arrangements where possi-
ble to allow the tenants to
pay what they owe in m-
stallments. But Mr. Reitter
says he is not willing to
wait two years to get the
back rent.
However, while negotia-
boas are underway to come
to some sort of arrange-
ment, some 12 tenants last
week received a letter ad-
vising them to pay what
they owe or go to court.
Mr. Reitter told the News
that the tenants receiving
this notice are delinquent
in their present rent.
However, tenant
spokesman Charlie Kat -
tides said only one or two
are not up to date with their
present rent.
The rest, he said, are at-
tempting to make ar-
rangements to pay what
they owe. Mr. Reitter said
one or two whose rent is up
to date may have "slipped
through". He said that
these people would not
have to appear in court.
If the most recent rent in-
crease application by the
landlord goes against the
tenants, it will be the third
rent increase above 6% in
as many years. In 1981, the
landlord applied for and
was granted a 29% in-
crease.
Because 2700 Lawrence is
a limited dividend building,
there is a $21,000 ceiling on
the income the tenants can
earn. Rents in the building
range from $273 per month
for a one bedroom apart-
ment to $348 for a four
bedroom.

Initiate Land Use Study
by Clay Abbate
Scarborough Council will
undertake a land -use study
of the Sheppard Ave. area
between Midland Ave. and
Brimley Rd. in an effort to
stem the tide of growing
problems in this district.
Last week, Ward 12 Alder-
man Bob Aaroe introduced
a notice of motion asking
for a study of potential uses
and possible solutions to
the transportation and
parking problem in the
area.
After a lengthy discus-
sion, council decided to ask
its staff to report back in
two weeks with the terms
of reference for the study
and some indication as to
what the problems are.
The parking problems in
Glen Watford area have
been aggravated in the last
three years with the con-
struction of a new plaza on
the east side of Glen Wat-
ford and the conversion of
the former roller skating
rink to 23 shops and
restaurants.
The influx of Chinese mer-
chants who have taken
over many of the shops in
the area has also con-
tributed to the problem.
Merchants at No.6 Glen
Watford claim motorists,
mainly Chinese, park m
their plaza and dross over

resulted in angering those

Last week, Cameron Watson, owner of the original farmhouse on Centennial Rd. jurat south
of Lawson Rd. gathered interested citizens, mchxW* MP Paul Cosgrove ( above) , to show
how a proposed plan for three houses on filled lands would be hazardous for the flow of
drainage water. bur. Watson, who was born in the house in which he lives, said that in a large
rainstorm, such as Hurricane Hazel, the nearby Catholic School and many homes would be
flooded because the natural watercourse is being narrowed by developers. (Photo - Bob

DINNER THEATRE:
In its five years of ex-
istence The Limelight Din-
ner Theatre has [)(-come
known for its attention to
older, more classic
musicals such as Show
Boat, Oklahoma, South
Pacific and the like. At the
directorial helm Adolf
Toman gave his con-
siderable European charm
over to the ault Wein touch.
Well. wait till you ex-
perierice The Limelight's
latest production. The Rest
Little %%horehouse in Texas
is not nearly as raunchy as
the title might imply. Still.
it is naughty and we
wondered how Mr. Toman
would handle it.
All we can sav is that his
touch is just as sure in tore
•'mortem)" genre as it is in
vintage productions
This is one of the brighter
shows in town filled with
enthusiastn, high good
humour and bright sparkl-
ing music (fit, you won't

far cry from the Polly
Adler type characteriza-
tion so often prescribed by
other directors. She sings
well too and generally
light-, up the stage with her
presence.
Giulio Kukurugya is
suitably masculine in the
role of the madame's
sheriff friend. Ne has a
splendid voice and if we
have one disappointment in
the production it is the
absence of a really fine
song to which he can turn
his attention,

Sweet voiced and sweet

appearance by her on

We were quite taken as
well by a young lady min-

a dual role as one of the
girls and as a small town
aaitr•esc. in the one she is
sex pvr!,;r1irivd in the•
other she is sex awaiting a

tractive in both roles .. at-

Does the program involve
direct fuzancial assistance for
alterations? No. The savings are in
reduced property taxes each year, not in
grants or loans for alterations. Under
this program, the assessed value of the
improvements will not be included when
your property tax is calculated. providing
the improvements were made to help a
disabled or senior live at home.
% ho can apply? Any property
owner who makes improvements to
accommodate people who are 65 or over
and those of any age with physical or
mental disabilities that would otherwise
require them to live in an institution.
Can only the family of a disabled
or senior person apply for this
exemption? Not necessarily. For
example, you may wish to make
improvements to accommodate a friend
in your home. Moreover, disabled or
seniors can apply for the exemption
directly, if they make alterations that will
enable them to continue living in their
own homes.
What about group homes?
Non-profit group homes can apply,
but only as long as their improved
accommodations do not exceed three
residential units. Larger institutions
operating multiple facilities to care for
the disabled or seniors are not included
in this program.
Can commercial properties
qualify? Yes, in some cases. For
example. a family operating a retail store
could apply for the exemption if they
make improvements to an apartment
upstairs for the accommodation of a
family member or friend who would
otherwise be compelled to live in an
What types of home improve-
ments qualify? Any addition,
improvement or alteration specifically
related to the needs of the disabled or
senior resident qualifies for this new
exemption. These may include such
features as special bathroom modifications
or additions to an existing home. (Please
note: general repairs and maintenance do
not increase assessment anyway).
Does the exemption apply to
changes underway or completed
before the program was
announced? Only alterations started
after May 15, 1984 when the program
was announced will qualify for the
property tax exemption once the work
has been completed.
How• long will the exemption
apply? The tax exemption
continues as long as the senior or
disabled person uses the property as
their principal residence.
How do you receive this new
property tax exemption? The first
step is to call your local Assessment
Office at the number listed below. To
avoid any possible disappointment,
please contact us before finalizing your
plans. We look forward to discussing the
program in greater detail.
Please talk to your local Assessment Office. W'e're anxious to help.

We have three science fic-
tion novels to hand. All deal
with an awakening in the
near future.
Murdock takes place in
the year 2310 and is the
story of a man medically
frozen in 1967 because of an
incurable disease from
which he was suffering but
for which there is now a
cure. He had been a doctor
but the advances made in
medicine during his long
sleep are beyond his
capacity to accept chiefly
because medicine is now
dictated by computer.
Not only can he not accept
the computer: he cannot
accept the emotions evoked
when he leans that his
wife has remarried and, of
course, is twenty-three
years older though he
himself has not aged
analonnical(v at all. Aril,
his Want children are now
married adults.
The title derives from the
name of the artificial (? )
intelligence that controls
the hospital in which the
principal finds himself
after thawing.
It's a good novel and
would be even better were
it not for the infusion (in-
trusion? ) of a
melodramatic and poorly
resolved plot involving a
crooked hospital ad-
ministrator who misuses
Murdock and very nearly .
. well, we'd better not say
any more.
Spaceache (Academic
Press) by Snoo Wilson -
what Snoo? - is patently one
of the stupidest and ill -
written books in our recent
ken.
Also set in the near future
it delineates the moral tur-
rtticde to which the world
descended_ Sq bpd is it
that anyone can opt for
cryogenesis and matter dif-
fusion after which one is
placed in the orbit of a dis-
tant ptanet to await thaw-
ing and reconstitution at a
time %filen the world might
be better.
It's an intriguing concept
and the stuff of which a
good philosophical treatise
or action adventure might
be created but riot by so-
meone with the limited
scope and miniscule
writing ability (hooinell

He has chosen to be funny
but his humour is that of
the gutter and the toilet.
One supposes he is attemp-
ting satirical farce but he
has achieved only farcical
satire .. farcical that is, in
the light of his dreadful
writing style which lacks
even a semblance of
discipline.
Reading Spaceache is like
watching Billy Connolly
trying to perform Noel
Coward. We will say no
mote.
Exiles of Colsec
(Academic Press) is the
Gust book of an intended
trilogy. It's short ( about an
hour's reading time) and
tells the story of young
social misfits (it's not nice
to call them delinquents
anymore) exiled by Colsec
to colonize a planet.

youngsters placed in
suspended animation for
the journey. There's a
malfunction of course and
not all survive the crash on
to the planet. It's often
touch and go if they can
survive the evil of one of
their own, let alone the
animosity of the native
civilization.
Not landmark science fic-
tion but decent reading.
Perhaps we enjoyed it
because we'd just finished
reading the execrable
Spaceache. ( Never have
figured out that title!
Speaking of trilogies may
we recommend
Washington D.C. (Ballan-
tine) by Gore Vidal.
Although it was the first to
be published, it is actually
the last volume of Vidal's
narrative of life in the
United States as experienc.
ed by one family from the
Revolution ( Burr) through
the nations centennial
(1976) through to the 196(is
which was the high noon of
the American Empire.
There are those who sug-
gest that Mr. Vidal is an un-
disciplined writer and one
can understand why they
might think so. Certainly
he allows himself the lux-
ury of abandoning current
chronology from time to
time but it serves mereiv to
keep the reader on his men-
tal toes.
And, this is important
because his writing style is
so elegant that one can fall
into the trap of admiring it
rather than following the
narrative. Mr. Vidal is a
fine writer. Compared to
him Snoo Wilson is a
neander thal.
We have been fortunate
enough to have read the
three novels in their
chronological order and en-
joyed each one. without
hesitation though. we sug-
gest that Washington D.C.
is the fnw--%t of the, dwee.
One wonders how many
readers of it will play the
game of guessing which
politicians are portrayed
as fictional characters.
Look for Adlai Stevenson
and John Kennedy.

NOTEBOOK:
Two great attractions are
coming up as part of the ci-
ty's Festival celebrations.
Tomorrow night the Na-
tional Ballet presents the
premiere production of
Onegin and will continue to
present it through Sunday.
On Ute 24th the Canadian
Opera Company will pre-
sent the first performance
of Death in Venice and pre-
sent it until June 30th.
Both these presentations
will be at The O'Keefe and
that's about all we can tell
you. We find ourself in
agreement with the many
who are complaining about
the way in which the
festival has been organiz-
ed.
Publicity releases have
been minimal. It's after the
fact of course but surely
the festival organizers
should have let the in-
dividual participants han-
dle their own publicity. The
C.O.C., the N.B.O.C. and
The O'Keefe have excellent
publicity offices and it
should have been left to
them to promote their of-
ferings.
As it stands now we fear
for the attendance at some
of the events simply
because the public is not as
aware of them as it is en-

Father's Day nearly didn't make it
Father's Day is the most impor-
tant card sending occasion after
Mothers Day. Although cele-
brated in North America since
1910, it was not officially recog-
nized until 1972. And, were it
not for the determined efforts of
two dedicated women -- Sena-
tor Margaret Chase Smith of
Maine, and Mrs. John Bruce
Dodd of Spokane, Washington
— Canadians might not be cele-
brating this special day at all!
Mrs. Dodd organized the first
unofficial celebration of Father's
Day on June 19, 1910, to honor
her own father, William Jackson
Smart, who had singlehandedly
raised six children after his wife
died.
Although President Woodrow
Wilson participated in a 1916
Fathers Day celebration, he re-
fused to proclaim it an on-going
national day of observance as
he had done for Mother's Day
two years earlier.
In 1924, President Calvin
Coolidge recommended that
Father's Day be observed in all
states but stopped short of a
national proclamation.
PROCRASTINATION
All this procrastination led
Senator Margaret Chase Smith
to unleash her wrath on Con-
gress. In a 1957 proposal she
wrote, -As far as 1 can gather.
Congress has been guilty now
for 40 years of the worst possi-
ble oversight ... perpetrated
against the gallant fathers of our
land ... either we honor both
our parents ... or let in desist
from honoring either one. -
Finally, in 1972. after more
than half a century of dedicated
campaigning efforts, President
Richard Nixon signed a con-
gressional resolution, officially
proclaiming the third Sunday
in June an annual day of ob-
servance.
CANADIAN
OBSERVANCES
Unofficial Canadian obser-
vances of Fathers Day date
back to the early 1900's and
have been traditionally celebra-
ted with cards and gifts for Dad.
And today, while sensitive, poe-
tic cards are usually the choice
for Mothers Day, Hallmark's
Marketing Operations Manager,
Marilee Harris, reports that
fathers generally have fun poked
at them on their special day.
"The more humerous cards are
the more popular for Father's
Day," says Harris.
This year there are over 750
different Hallmark Fathers Day
card designs to choose from
502 English designs and 289
French designs. The cards cover
the gamut from humerous'one-
liners' to sentimental verses.
Special gift ideas include Hall-
mark puzzles, leather address
and date books, rosewood pens
and plaques. Dad's special gift
can be attractively wrapped in a
variety of Father's Day gift wrap
ensembles.
It took a long time in coming
but Father's Day is definately a
special day that's here to stay.
So remember Dad on June 17!

.ink Pickering Transit To Scarborough Buses
by Debbie Blair
Pickering bus service
could be extended to in-
clude a link with Scar-
borough buses in
September.
This change and other are
part of a transit study that
was approved in principle
by Pickering Executive
Committee on Monday.
The committee approved
a bus route beginning at
West Shore and Oklahoma
Dr. and travelling through
the West shore community,
and along Whites Road to
Dunbarton High School
where a timed transfer
would occur with other
routes.
The proposed meeting
with Toronto Transit buses
is at Lawson and Kingston
Rds. and at Scarborough
College.
The bus would make four
round trips in the morning
and afternoon peak
periods, at 40 minute inter-
vals.
George Papik, director of
transportation, said discus-
sions with the TM could
begin now.
The transit study, con-
ducted by Marshall
Macklin Monaghan
Limited, indicated about
5,600 Pickering residents
Speaking
To You
Stott Fennd M.P.
Ontario Riding
On May 25th. two Bills were finally introduced in the
House of Commons by the government, both of which con-
cern homeowners or future homeowners. The first is the
long -waited mortgage rate protection plan as ouWned in
the February budget.
The government has proposed that protection will be
available for residential fust mortgages to purchasers of
new and existing homes and to homeowners whose mor-
tgages will be renewed after the implementation of the pro-
Bram. Of course, this protection will not be without a
charge, this being 1 1 2% of the face value of a mortgage.
with a mortgage ceiling limit of $70.000. The protection fee
also has a maximum limit of $1.050, which can be added to
the principal amount of the purchaser's mortgage.
Without a doubt. the problems with this legislation are
quite visible. Firstly, with the present value of new tomes
skyrocketing. and price variation from one area to another.
the ceiling limit of $70.000 is low. Secondly• the feewin pro
vide protection only for the term of the mortgage. In other
words. when a homeowner has to renewhis her mortgage
rate after four or five years, he she will have to pay another
fee for the new term.
In addition. this protection will not cover all increases in
mortgage rates. only against thre"wrters of a rate in-
crease, and this is after the rate has increased two percen-
tage pants. This plan will be retroactive to March 1st, and
contrary to the adveniserments which the government has
been pushing in the media, has only just been introduced in
the House of Commons.
The second bill is an act to amend the interest act. This act
will restrict the penalty that may be charged if a
homeowner prepays his her mortgage. and the maximum
penalty will be set by regulations. The regulation Is still be-
ing drafted. but in effect, the penalty would be equal to the
amount of money which the bank would lose when allowing
the mortgagor a lower rate of interest.
The go%emment has succeeded in totally confusing this
issue, and I cannot see a lot of homeowners being able to sift
through the regulations, let alone understand it. Whv the
government couldn't have just amended the present in-
terest act to state that all mortgages at any time could be
discharged with a three month penalty, is beyond me.
As I have said, neither of these Bills are sufficient as
drafted, and the P.C. Party will be fighting for amend-
ments, for Canadian homeowners have paid for thegovern-
ment's fiscal irresponsibility long enough.

Bus Service To By George Ashe, MPP Durham West
Recreation Centre...........................:......................:....
by Debbie Blah -
A Saturday bus service
running from North
Pickering hamlets to the
Recreation Centre may be
on the road by this fall.
The bus, would make a
morning and afternoon
stop within each hamlet,
and cost $1 each way.
The service may begin a
three-month trial commen-
cing in September.
Peter Gillespie, president
of the Claremont Com-
munity Association, said at
the Pickering Town Ex-
ecutive Committee
meeting that the fare
should be the same as the
dial -a -bus rate of 75 cents.
But Local Councillor
Wayne Arthurs said the
service must be self-
supporting and this would
be achieved if the bus was
used by 30 riders each
Saturday at the dollar fare.
"If ridership is increased,
then it could be reduced,
basically, to dial -a -bus
rates."
No additional supervision
would be supplied on the
bus.
Gillespie said the North
Pickering residents are en-
thusiastic about the ser-
vice, which still has to be
approved by town council,
and is sure it will be well -
used.
Before the recreation cen-
tre was built, Mayor John
Anderson said a similar
service that ran on a daily
basis was discontinued
because it was not used.
3 Citizens Named To

On Thurs. June 7, I was pleased to participate in the of-
ficial unveiling of Ontario's Bicentennial Medal.
Bicentennial events have been taking place throughout the
province to celebrate the way settlement began in Ontario,
and how our communities have grown since that time.
Margaret Birch, Chairman of the Bicentennial Cabinet
Committee, indicated, "Throughout 200 years,
volunteerism has been very much a part of our lives, and of
our tradition.
In 1784 the Loyalists, their French forerunners, and
natives, helped one another because they were linked in a
common cause, and because of the needs of survival."
During the Bicentennial year, we will have the opportunity
of recognizing the contribution that these numerous
volunteers make to the lifestyle that we enjoy in Ontario.
Municipalities, Indian bands, service boards, and in-
dividuals, have been asked to nominate individuals who, in
their opinion, have made outstanding contributions towards
the betterment of the lives of others. The deadline for
nominations is June 30, 1984, and special presentation
ceremonies of 1,984 Bicentennial Medals will be made dur-
ing September and October of this year.
Bicentennial Medals will be presented to individuals
whose names have been put forward, and who best il-
lustrate the ideals of volunteerism and service to the com-
munity.
The Ontario Bicentennial Medal was struck by the Royal
Canadian Mint in Ottawa, and is manufactured by an in-
novative process which plates a layer of pure gold on a
nickel base. All the components of the Medal were produced
in Ont2rio, and the manufacturing process was developed
by Inco Limited.
I participated in the Bicentennial Medal unveiling
ceremony in Ottawa with Margaret Birch, Chairman of the
Bicentennial Cabinet Committee, and representatives of
the Royal Canadian Mint.
The ceremony was videotdeconfererr. to Queen's Park,
where The honourable Claude Benuiett, Minister of
Municipal Affairs and Housing, and Dr. Walter Curlook,
Executive Vice President, of Loco, Limited, also par-
bppated.
The videoteleconferencing service was provided through
my 36nistry. the Ministry of Government Services, and it
facilitates meetings between groups at distant points. The
Ontario Government is considered a leader in Canada in
both the development and use of teleconferencing_
The official unveiling of the Bicentennial Medal provided
an ideal opportunity to recognize the rapid technological
advances which have been made since Alexander Graham
Bell fust began wort on the telephone in Brantford in 1874.
Ontario's Bicentennial Medal program - a salute to the
many Ontarianu who make a personal contribution towards
the establishment of a lifestyle we often take for granted in

Pay To Fight Acid Rain
A Gallup poll recently
released by the Canadian
Coalition on Acid Rain in-
dicated 80% of Ontario
residents were prepared to
donate the financial
equivalent of a day's work
to clean up acid rain.
However, a campaign
organized by the Ontario
Federation of Anglers and
Hunters (O.F.A.H.) which
would earmark funds for
the fight against acid rain
isn't generating much
money.
Since mid-March, the
Sportsmen's Federation,
Ontario's largest provin-
cial conservation organiza-
tion, has been selling the
well known Mitchell 3o0A
sp . reels t301A for
left-handers i for just $29.96
(plus $2.10 sales tax and $2
postage and handling ).
As an added bonus, all
reel purchasers receive
ed vehicles must have a
dealer's certificate of sale
to register their vehicles.
Those who have owned
them for some time must
sign a self -declaration of
ownership supplied by

In announcing the reel
deal and in subsequent
advertising, the O.F.A.H.
pointed out that a signifi-
cant portion of any profits
generated would be used in
the fight against acid rain
The balance would sup-
port Federation efforts to
restock, restore habitat,
and preserve the future of
fishing in Ontario. To date,
less than a thousand reels
have been purchased.
The Federation's reel deal
is an opportunity for Cana-

"Under this new registra-
