Q. lbw did Scotch tape get its name? H.C.
A. The word "Scotch" was initially given to Minnesota Min-
ing and Manufacturing Company (3M) leaders after they
produced an inadequate tape.
The incident occurred in 1925. Automobile makers were
producing two-tone cars. To make the painting job easier,
they decided they needed a sturdy strip of tape to run along
the border of a color while painting. This would create a
sharp, clear line between the two colors.
The 3M company made a tape for this purpose. Unfor-
tunately, the tape did not have enough adhesive applied to
its surface. As a consequence, it did not stick properly, and
the paint ran beyond its intended borders.
When a 3M salesman appeared before the angry auto
workers, the workers suggested that the tape be returned to
the 3M "Scotch bosses". Since then the tape, albeit improv-
ed, has been called Scotch tape.
Q. African violets are fairly sensitive to strong sunlight.
Should they be placed in a window which faces north? N.V.
A. Yes, at least for the warmer months. The plant can be
burned from too much light. On the other hand, too little
light will check its growth. It does best when it is placed in a
north window from April to August and an east window for
the remaining months.
Q. Is lake Superior the largest inland lake in the world?
R.G.
A. No. At 31,820 sq. miles it is the second largest. The Cas-
pian Sea, which lies north of Iran and south of the U.S.S.R.,
is the largest at 152,239 sq. miles.
The deepest lake is Lake Baikal in the U.S.S.R. Its
deepest point lies over a mile beneath the surface of the
water.

Durham Board of Education Highlights
Board Praises SLMS Study
During the 1985-M school
year. the Durham Board of
Education cootracted with
the Ontario institute for
Studies in Education to pro-
vide an analysis of
mathematics achievement
among students enrolled in
grade 8 and those taking

The study was essential-
ly a replication, within the
Durham board, of major
aspects of Ontario's par-
ticipation in SIMS ( Second
International Mathematics
Study) conducted in
1981-2.
Mathematics Consultant
Leslie Dow was on band to
present Durham's results
to the Board. He noted that
for grade 8 students in
Durham average scores
exceeded the Ontario
averages for all the fifteen
areas examined. Durham's
grade 13 average scones
equalled or exceeded the
Ontario average in each of
the fifteen areas of
mathematics examined.
Durham's results will be

A good idea but costly. It costs $1.99 for 4 litres, $6.00 for 18 litres in most supermarts,

In most cases the complete distiller cost would be paid for in 6 months use or less.

Review Presented
Technical consultant
Fred Thomas presented to
board members the recent-
ly completed review of
Technological Studies 1987.
Under the guidance of
Superintendent of Cur-
riculum Bruce Walker, a
task force, consisting of
Durham Board staff and
business and industry
representatives, conducted
a technological study to
determine if effective use
was being made of
facilities and resources in
Durham schools.
They were also to
evaluate the technological
program being offered to
students, develop recom-
mendations for im-
provements to the pro-
gram, and address the
steady decline since 1980 in
the number of students
enrolling in technological

Why Special. Rights
by Bob Watson
The meeting of premiers led by Prime Minister Mulroney
with Indians and Eskimos on the subject of special rights
and self-government must make more Canadians than your
writer wonder about all this. Do people who happen to be
born in an Inuit igloo or Indian wigwam - or more likely, a
subsidized house - have more rights to this land of ours.
called Canada?
Frankly, we are glad that the western premiers didn't
cave in to the establishment of what seems to be another
bunch of countries inside our own country - all at the ex-
pense of those of us who are called Canadians.
It is constantly a puzzlement to us that after the "white"
man defeated the "red" man and took over his lands we
seem to end up with two kinds of people inhabiting our coun-
try. Why can't all of us be Canadians and equal - and no one
with special privileges?
We don't believe that we who are here now owe any
special favours to those people living today and calling
themselves Indian or Eskimo. The native peoples
descendents could maintain their own culture, if they wish-
ed, but why do the rest of us have to finance all of this. Sure-
ly if any people wish to keep their culture going. it is only
proper that they put in the work. time and money into the
preservation, not everyone else.
We don't believe that most Canadians have thought about
this whole issue. Are we agreeable to giving away millions
of acres of land to the so-called native peoples? Do we want
numerous other self -governments inside our country'
There are many problems to this issue and citizens shosild
think about.them.............................................

Bill Watt's Worlds
ON SCREEN:
The newest Imax film
showing at Cinesphere in
Ontario Place until Apr.
20th something titled
S.
We were at an invita-
tional advance screening
but had to leave for another
opening before we could
see it. We are quite
prepared, however, to ac-
cept the advice of a col-
league who was able to see
it and who has intoned to
me "Take along some
Gravol".
Speed is a 33 minute film
that chronicles man's pro-
gress over speed through
the ages. Among other ex-
citements you'll ride a
roller coaster ( memories
of Todd -AO anyone?), sit in
a 320 mph jet dragster and
experience a computer
controlled trip at the speed
of light.
As we say, we had to
miss it but we did see the
film appearing with it. It's
a revival of Silent Sky and
is majestically beautiful as
it follows the flight of a
glider through the Califor-
nia sky.
The images are
breathtaking in their beau-
ty and the sensaion of
flight, as it should be, is all
pervasive. The audio
senses are caressed as well
by the sound of the wind
slipping by and the almost
inspired music of Hagood
Hardy. It could well serve
as the base for a tone poem.
The pairing of Silent Sky
and Speed is a clever bit of
programming and we con-
gratulate Ontario Place.
Congratulations and best
wishes as well to Mary -
Ellen Bozic who has just
been named Meda; Public
Relations Co-ordinator.
Nice to have you with us
Mary -Filen.
Still with matters
cinematic, remember Mike
Farrell? He played Hun-
nicutt on the long running
TV version of MASH. He
has formed Farrell Minoff
Productions with Marvin
Minoff and is entering into
feature film production.
Principal Photography
starts in Pittsburg in April
on Dominick and Eugene
starring Tom Hulce well
remembered from
Amadeus and Ray Liotta
from Something Wild.
We look forward to it.
And, if Mr. Farrell should
be reading this in Sherman
Oaks. California, when are
you going to do another
Crary Legs commercial?
ON RECORD:
Hardly the correct cut
line for an announcement
about CDs but don't quib-
ble. Be as excited as we are
about the news that
follows. A dr M of Canada
has acquired the distribu-
tion rights to the Nimbus
Records compact discs
catalogue.
In the 60s Nimbus was
founded as an experimen-
tal recording studio. Today
Nimbus rerxesents a new
science of sound through its
digital recording facilities
and a classical repertoire
featuring the highest
calibre of artists.
All Nimbus releases are
recorded using the
Nimbus -Halliday Surround
Sound microphone system
and in a concert -like set-
ting to capture the feeling
of a live performance.
To preserve the quality
of its sound Nimbus launch-
ed its own CD facility
which is the only one
designed independently of
Philips and Sony. This
allows Nimbus control of
its own mastering and full
implementation of high -
ambient, low edit con-
sideration.
Among the first releases
will be a digital sampler, a
65 minute CD comprising
15 movements from cur-
rent and prospective
releases featuring such ar-
tists as Shura Cherkassy,
the Scottish Chamber Or-
chestra and the Philhar-
monia Orchestra.
Beautiful music, well
performed and recorded to
well nigh perfection. There
is no question that Cana-
dian musical artists can
take their place alongside
those of other countries.
There is also no question
that the largest market for
the artistry of any per-
former is the U.S.A.
So the question most
often asked by Canadian
artists, managers and
labels is "what is the best
way to guarantee sane
level of success in the
States?"
A large mocasta'e of help
is now at hand with the for-
mation of EMG, Entertain-
ment Marketing Group. It
will assist and guide in cor-
porate sponsorship and en-
dorsement, marketing and
promotion, event creation,
radio syndication, pro-
ducer management and a
whole host of services.
We think it's a fine
organization and one that is
rather much overdue of
the music scene.
EMG has a convenient
location as well. It's at 181
University Avenue. Good
hick to all.
THE TUBE:
Still with things musical,
here's a reminder that The
Phil Collins Special will ap-
pear on Global TV next
Monday at 9 p.m. It'll be
simulcast here with Q-107.
LEGIT BIT:
Also next Monday the
Canadian Actor's Equity
Associations hosts its an-
nual Theatre Arts Ball at
the St. Lawrence Hall to
benefit the Actors' Fund of
Canada.
The general public is in-
vited and it's a fine oppor-
tunity to meet and mingle
with the Canadian acting
fraternity. The cost is a
modest $15 per person and
includes buffet and dancing
to the Al Hirsch Orchestra.
We hope to make it after
the COC performance of
Adriam Lecouvreur at The
O'Keefe and renew ac-
quaintance with Daphne
Goldrick, who is the Vice -
President, External.
Daphne has probably
forgotten but she and I
acted together some few
years ago in a Belmont pro-
duction of Arthur Miller's
All My Sons. Her husband
in the production was Paul
Wayne. He went on to
become a writer. Perhaps
you've seen his most
popular show . , a popular
little thing called Three's
Company.
IN PRINT:
While we decry the
labelling of books into
categories it must be con-
ceded that some books are
better suited to some au-
diences than others. Given
that, let us state that
Thursday's Child by Helen
Forrester (Fontana) is
most definitely a woman's
book.
Ms. Forrester has writ-
ten much about her life in
Liverpool and we suspect
that Thursday's Child,
while not so stated, is in
large measure
autobiographical.
Be that as it might, this is
the story of a Liverpool
woman who marries an In-
dian and goes with him to
their home in India. She is
of lower middle class stock
in England, he is of better
caste in India.
Neither family is en-
thusiastic about the mar-
riage and her husband's
family will have nothing to
do with her initially.
At points the story is
quite dreary as the woman
tries hard to adjust to the
different style of living in
India. At others there is an
exhilaration as one canes

Hon. Ed Fulton
Minister d Transpoftim
am Commute
MPP Scarborough East
REPORT RECOMMENDS DRINKING LAWS BE
MODERNIZED
Ontario's drinking laws should be changed to reflect the
attitudes and expectations expressed by both the public and
the industry according to a recently released government
report.
"The report emphasizes the promotion of responsible ser-
vice of alcohol in licensed establishments, as well as in-
dividual responsibility and moderation in the consumption
of beverage alcohol, said Chairman of the Ontario Ad-
visory Committee on Liquor Regulation, Steven Offer,
M.P.P. for Mississauga North.
The report contains more than 70 recommendations that
include: giving all licensed establishments the option to re-
main open daily from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m.; keeping the legal
age of 19; introducing a new classification for
establishments: B.Y.O.B. (Bring Your Own Bottle); and
revamping the special occasion permit system.
Mr. Offer said that over 85 percent of the province's
almost 12,000 licensed establishments are already licensed
to operate on Sundays if they so choose. Therefore, by giv-
ing all licensed establishments the option to remain open
seven days a week, the remaining 15 percent will be able to
enjoy the same privilege.
PROVINCE FUNDS HOSPICE FOR PEOPLE WITH AIDS
Health Minister Murray Elston announced that Ontario
will provide $1 million in capital funding to a Toronto
hospital to set up Casey House, a home for people in the ad-
vance stages of AIDS.
As part of an extensive package. the Health Ministry will
also provide annual funding for the borne. which Kill be run
as a hospital satellite program. Casey House is expected to
open this fall.
"With a hornlike environment. Casey House will pro-
vide stalled, compassionate care to people with AIDS and
supportive counselling for their families,.. Mr. Elston said.
To date, the ministry has spent more than $2 million on
AIDS research projects and blood testing programs. One
million dollars has been directed towards such projects as a
comprebensive epidemiological study now under way at the
University of Toronto. Studies related to diagnostic screen-
ing have also been funded at Toronto's Hosptal of Sick
Children and at the University of Western Ontario.
In August 19M, the Health Ministry announced funding of
si million to the Canadian Red Cross for its AIDS antibody
testing program to assure an AIDS -free blood supply for
Ontariars. The ministry also announced funding of s200.000
to its central laboratory in Etobicoke to set up and
diagnostic specimen testing of suspected AIDS cases.
The Ontario Public Education Panel on AIDS (OPEPA)
is continuing its educational role for another two years.
Since early 1965, the ministry has provided the AIDS Com-
mittee of Toronto with hinds totalling s309,000 for its
counselling and support -
From 1982 to the present, there have been 357 cases of
AIDS reported in Ontario, of whom 17, 9 are still alive. In
Metro Toronto, there have been 251 cases. of whom 129 are
still living.
PREMIER URGES FOCUS ON EDUCATION
Premier David Peterson recently pointed out that On-
tario's education system must be improved to meet the
needs of young people to provide them with new skills to
compete in the modern world.
Speaking at the annual Ontario Liberal Heritage Dinner
in Toronto, Premier Peterson noted that there is a 40 per-
cent dropout rate from high schools in the province. That
rate, said Peterson. is one of the highest in the world - three
times as high as in Sweden and West Germany and twice
that of Japan and Great Britain.
As one of several initiatives to help reduce the drop-out
rate, the Ministry of Education will begin a special study on
school dropouts. Premier Peterson added that the objective
of the study will be to recommend ways of enuring that On-
tario's education system is relevant to the needs of young
people and to the realities of the labour market they are
preparing to enter.
Further, the Ontario Government has started the process
of rebuilding our university structure. but much more
needs to be done, Premier Peterson added.
.•Ontanans must commit themselves to the education
and training of young people, who need new skills to com-
pete in the modern world." Premier Peterson said.
ONTARIO SEEKS LEAVE TO APPEAL ZUNDEL CASE
Attorney General Ian Scott is seeking leave to appeal a
judgment by the Ontario Court of Appeal setting aside the
conviction of Ernst Zundel who had been convicted of
spreading false news contrary to Section 177 of the Criminal
Code but that conviction was set aside last month by the ap-
peal court.
I have instructed my Crown Law Officers to bring an ap-
plication in the Supreme Court of Canada seeking leave to
appeal that decision in order that the conviction may be
restored," Attorney General Scott told members of the
Legislature. Mr. Scott added that the law creating the of-
fence under which the charge was laid was found by the
court to be constitutionally valid and that the jury found
that the Crown met the burden of proving beyond
reasonable doubt that the Holocaust had indeed occurred.
"The decision to proceed in this manner was finally bas-
ed, as it must be in all cases, on strict concern for the due
administration of justice... Attorney General Scott said.

to an appreciation of the
finer points of the differing
cultures.
Is there a happy ending?
There is but it's indeter-
minate and we suspect that
Ms. Forrester had a sequel
in mind.
Not a bad book at all but
definitely better ap-
preciated and enjoyed by
women. There is no ques-
tion that The Tunnels of Cu
Chi (Pan) is a man's book.
Here you will read about
the incredible tunnel
fighting that went on dur-
ing the Viet Nam war and
it's truly horrifying. The
tunnels were built by and
for the native populace and
were quite small. For an
American, there was only
one way to enter . . feet
first, never knowing if a
VetCong was waiting to
stab a bayonet in the groin.
This is war, real war, the
kind of war that makes one
wish desperately for peace.
It isn't a pretty book to
read but we recanunend it
on two counts. The first is,
of course, to make the point
to those who still need it to
be made that war is a
dreadful thing.
Our second reason is in
some measure an • admis-
sion of our ignorance. The
Tunnels of Cu On is the
fust book we've read that
explains how the war in
Viet Nam came about in
the fust place.
Authors Tom Mangold
and John Penycate have
done some fine in-
vestigative work here and
while some of the narrative
is stultifyingly boring it is
compelling.

BTT: There's A Price To Pay
Whether you can see it or
you can't, a business
transfer tax will be effec-
tively invisible, says
Wayne Matheson, a tax
specialist with Deloitte
Haskins do Sells.
"Most people have a
pretty good idea as to what
they pay in income tax,
because they record it in a
lump sum at least once a
year. But how many people
know the total that they
pay annually in provincial
sales tax for instance?"
Mr. Matheson says. "Even
though sales tax is record-
ed separately on every pur-
chase, most people have no
idea how much tax they
pay each year...
A business transfer tax is
expected to be a major
component of the White
Paper on tax reform
scheduled for this spring. A
BTT would be levied on the
value added to all goods
and services at every stage
of the production and
distribution process.
Mr. Matheson says a
BTT would be designed to
finance the elimination of
the outdated Manufac-
turers' Sales Tax as well as
individual and corporate
surtaxes, which together
generated about $14 billion
last year. It would likely
also help to finance promis-
ed reductions and personal
income tax rates.
To do that may require a
BTT rate as high as eight
percent, he says.
In theory, the price of
those selected goods now
subject to the 12 percent
Manufacturers' Sales Tax
should go down, while the
price of goods and services
previously untaxed would
go up, Mr. Matheson says.
Thus, the aggregate cost to
consumers should increase
only moderately.
In practice, it is very
doubtful that the savings on
the defunct Manufacturers'
Sales Tax would be
reflected in price reduc-
tions to the ultimate con-
sumer, he says. On the
other hand, it is quite cer-
tain that the cost of BTT
would be reflected im-
mediately in price in-
creases.
Consumers and retailers
groups alike have strongly
urged that the tax be shown
separately on every sale,
though perhaps for dif-
ferent reasons.
Retailers assume that
the tax has been added
directly to the price they
pay to manufacturers and
distributors. By showing

the tax separately. Mr. Matheson
says, the retailers can justify a price
increase to consumers, even though
some of the cost of the tax may have
already been absorbed by suppliers
seeking a competitive edge in the
market.
Fo, their part, consumers ad-
vocat % insist that purchasers
should be fully aware of what they
are paying in tax above the value of
the goods.
If the tax is not shown, it is possi-
ble that some of the impact may be
absorbed before it reaches the con-
sumer. Mr. Matheson says. Whereas
if the tax i� shown, the consumer will
almost always bear the full burden.
The trade-off. he says, is between
not knowing exactly how much tax
you're paying and having some idea
of how much you're paving. but pro-
bably paying a little extra for the
knowledge.
In either case. qtr. Matheson says,
the net result is that consumers will
be considerably less aware than
they previously have been of exactly
how much tax they are actually pay-
ing.

Speaking
To You

• Gobot RkIn r
Many of you are probably wondering about the new in-
itiatives and changes our government is proposing to the
National Housing Act mortgage insurance program an-
nounced last week by the Hon. Stewart McInnes.
Under the National Housing Act, Canada Mortgage and
Housing Corporation (CMHC) provides insurance for cw
cuamstances when a borrower fails to repay the mortgage
loan amount lent to him or her by a lender on agreed teras.
These improvements, some of which will be effective as
early as May 1st, are being introduced to the NHA mor-
tgage insurance program and include: a reduction in some
underwriting premiums and fens; second mortgage loan inn
surance; the extension of NHA insurance to movable
homes, and the self-sufficiency CMHC's mortgage in-
surance portfolio through tighter controls and new claim
prevention procedures.
For purchases, loan limits have been extended from the
previous level of $80,000 to 9096 of the fust $125,000 of len-
ding value, plus 8096 of the remainder for equal payment
mortgages. For variable rate mortgages, the loan limit is
extended to 85% of the first $125,000 plus 80% of the re-
mainder.
Second mortgage financing has become very popular in
Canada, but interest rates have usually been higher. In this
regard, the program is aimed at people who want to im-

GOVERNMENT UNDER INVESTIGATION
Five investigations and lawsuits involving the liberal
Government and dose associates have been keeping com-
mittees of the Provincial I agislattn e, the Ontario
Solmrities Commission, and the Ontario Provincial Police
very The people of Ontario have been waiting for reports on
outstandinggovernnherht kwestigatians, says my colleague,
Alan Pope, M.P.P. for Cochrane South. These investiga-
tions have been going on since the beginning of the session
and all have links to the Ontario Liberal Party."
O.P.P. reports are submitted to the Attorney General
who may or may not make the report public.
In my view when a government's actions are under in-
vestigation it would seem appropriate that the public be
able to review the results of any police report.
Matters under Government investigation include:
Wyda Systems
• investigations began in January 1987.
• The O.P.P. are investigating the company for fraud.
• Wyda received $3 million in assistance from the now
defunct government venture capital agency, IDEA Cor-
poration.
• The company is now in receivership.
• The Liberal Government has filed a $3.5 million law suit
against the computer company to get back the IDEA Corp.
investment.
• The President of Ontario Development Corp, David
MacKinnon, has said there is already evidence of possible
mcom tax violations, misrepresentations and commercial
fraud About $2 million is believed to have been spent to pay
off existing debts. 'These debts were inflated and inventory
was overvalued.
• Wilf Caplan, the husbanrd of former Liberal Cabinet
Minister, Elinor Caplan, was the vice President of Finance
of Wyda dw-mg the time the company was negotiating
IDEA Corp. support.
• Once the support was won. Mr. Caplan's relamer increas-
ed from $2,000 a month to SB.000 a month.
Graham Seftware
' The province lost a $5.1 million investment made by IDEA
F. to the Toronto based computer company, when an
ebruary 5, IW7 the Liberal Government accepted cepted a
$300,000 out of court settlement.
• The company was awned by Terry Graham, a fried and
former business partner of Abe Shwartz, a member of
David Peterson's transition team.
• On March 23,1987 the I elibslsture's Public Accounts Com-
mittee was looking into the loan made to the Company.
L.S.I. Applications
• The O.P.P. investigation began November 30,1996. One of
the owners is Leo Gray, brother of federal liberal Herb
Gray.
• Liens totalling more than $3 million were filed by building
contractors. Since Government money was loaned for
building construction but had not been used for this pur-
pose, the O.P.P. were called in.
P.E.C. Fisaneial
• Went into receivership in the summr of 1985 with $23
million in outstanding debts.
• Investigation by the Ontario Secunbes Commission into
business practices against Wilf Caplan, husband of former
Cabinet Minister Elinor Caplan. Wilf Caplin was Secretary -
Treasurer and Chid Financial Officer from INS - April
1985.
Vaughan Land Sale
• The sale of 15 acres of land by the Town of Vaughan led to
an O.P.P. investigation in November 1986 at the request of
the ratepayers.
• Local ratepayers claim that they brought the incident to
the attention of Greg Sorbara, M.P.P. for York North and
Minister of Colleges and Universities, in the spring but the
Minister did nothing about the incident.
• Sorbara claims he approached the Minister of Municipal
Affairs, Bernard Grandmaitre on the issue, however,
Grandmaitre denies having ever been informed.
• The Progressive Conservatives have asked that the
O.P.P. broaden their investigation to include Minister Sor-
bara since the ratepayers have indicated that Sorbara sat
on this issue possibly to protect his former campaign
manager who is now one of the principal figures in the In-
vestigation.
I can tell you, if the previous Conservative Government
had been involved in any two of these issues, let alone five,
it would be Toronto Star front page practically daily.
prove their properties, but who don't want to change their
first mortgage financing.
The availability of insurance for second mortgages will
help Canadians obtain second mortgages with lower bor-
rowing costs, and will assist people who purchase pmper-
ties with appealing assumable fust mortgages but who re-
quire additional fundis to bridge the difference between
their equity and the assumable fust mortgage.
Because of the high-priced markets for housing, it is also
intended to promote renovation instead of "trading -up" to a
more expensive harm. The minimum insured amount for
this type of loan is $io,000.
I believe these changes will benefit everyone as low
downpayments and low borrowing costs make home owner-
ship more accessible to all Canadians, especially for those
who are purchasing their first homes. This also
demonstrates our commitment to a fiscally -responsible
Public mortgage loan insurance program.
