This reflects the need to provide an equitable quality health service within the economic capacity of the province to meet rapidly escalating costs. The Mmister is currently seek- ing advice from district health councils on how best to develop this new role.

This will in- volve drug abuse, alcohol consumption and smoking. The task force is chaired by Bob Finlay, Centre Director, Addiction Research Foundation, Durham Centre. The com- position of the task force in- cludes a mix of local con- sumers and providers representing a variety of sectors.

Noy. 16, 1968 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Political Confusion by Bob Watson Nothing was worse on Monday than the fact that during a municipal election which is of great importance to Metro Toronto and region there are advance polls for the federal election. This jumble of two elections is a disaster for the average citizen to handle and should never happen again. Please note, Ottawa. After all there are other important things to Canadians besides "free" trade, sales taxes and debts. There is social and commercial development in our communities, educa- tional facilities, crime in the streets, better sharing of pro- perty taxes and more highways to handle the flow of cars and trucks. However, the voters have spoken municipally and we hope that the decisions result in good local governments. And then we must switch our minds over to that other level of government at Ottawa. Instead of a constant bickering about "free" trade, we wish those seeking election would speak clearly and con- cisely instead of w=andering over the paragraphs about nothing. We hope that voters take more into consideration than this one topic. It is important that Canada become part of world trading blocs as the battle for trade will continue for some years ahead and we need all the muscle we can got• We also feel that our national debt which is growing each and every year needs to be dealt with. We can't lower in- come taxes and pay for all of the "goodies" all three parties are promising. And we worry about the mysterious new federal sales tax and would like to know more. See you at the polls. Have Faith Dear Sir: This election is turning into a referendum on Free Trade instead of an election to choose the future Government and prime Munster of our country. The Free Trade Agreement is important. but we must understand that it was negotiated by a knowledgeable professional, Simon Reisman, founder of the very successful Autopoct begun in 1965. As with the Autopsct. he negotiated the Free Trade Agreement with the best overall interests of Canada in mind. Take the time to read about it before you vote. Chid Justice Emmett Hall, the founder of Medicare, has stated that it will not be af- fected. Neither will our energy D. our water or our social pro- grams. It's a trade agreement. bike aqy partnership or con- tract, it is probably not perfect, so it contains a clause that it can be cancelled at any tine, now or in the fuhre, by either party to it, upon giving the other six months notice. If we elect John Turner. we are stuck with a leader who. as Finance bCnnister in the Ttudeau cabinet, left is with a deficit of well over $32 billion, one of the highest unemploy- ment levels in history and a recessive economy. He now, Proposes i90 billion in further programs but can't tell us whet e the money will come from. His past . ecoid speaks for itself. Brian Wrooey on the other hand, had reduced the deficit by 9 billion dollars in only 4 years. Unrnployment is at its lowest level in recent history with the creation of 1.3 million jobs since 1964, and Canada has enjoyed the largest economic growth of any country in the world. Mr. Mulroney's quiet dignity and strong national policies have gained us worldwide respect as a nation. The rest of the world envies us this Free Trade Agree- ment greetrent with the largest trading nation in the world and regards us as role models for peace. The tinted States is our Alii• and our friend. We have shared the largest undefended border in the world for decades. If they wanted our resources, they could have taken them years ago. Thank God our ancestors had the courage and foresight to forge ahead and try the unknown or we wouldn't be living in this great country today' If we don't try it, we'll never know how good it might have been and we'll lose a worldclass leader in the process. If we do try it and don't like it we can terminate it at any time on six months notice. The Free Trade Agreement is not written in stone. Let's have some faith in ourselves and in Canada. We established our nation and our identity in the two Great Wars. A simple trade deal will never take that away.

"We recognize and respect the spirit of the Court's ruling - that today, in Ontario's multicultural society, no single religion should be placed in a position of primacy in our public schools," said Education Minister Chris Ward. New regulations will be drafted to permit opening exer- cises to continue in Ontario public schools in a manner con- sistent with the intent of the Court's ruling, Mr. Ward said. The new regulations will allow for opening exercises that may include readings reflecting the multicultural reality of Ontario. Among such readings, the Lord's Prayer may be included. However, readings from one religion would not be permitted to be used exclusively or given a position of primacy. Fight Substance Abuse Ontario Minister of Tourism and Recreation Hugh P. O'Neil reaffirmed the province's resolve to fight substance abuse in competitive sport, and pointed to progress in establishing a united front against thelem. "A solid base of understanding has b been achieved with other provinces and the federal government to attack sport - related substance abuse. "Discussions with other ministers were productive.- he said. "It was gratifying for me to learn in W-umipeg that other provinces, the territories and the federal government share our serious commitment to a permanent end to any form of performance -enhancing substances in athletics." New Video For Remembrance The War Amputations of Canada stowed "No Man's Land". its latest video production during a special Remem- brance Day ceremony held on Nov. 11th in Markham. "No Man's Land" was produced by Cliff Chadderton, War Amps Chief Executive Officer, and it commemorates the 70th an- mversary of the end of World War 1. The video features the work of Canadian artist Mary Riter Haatiltoa Hamilton travelled to war-torn Europe following the wear in an attempt to capture the devastation on canvas. Until now her battlefield paintings have remain- ed virtually unknown to most Canadians. Community Action Awards Twelve people from across Ontario will be recipients of the 1966 Community Action Awards on Nov. let. The Ontario Office for Disabled Persons sponsors the awards to recognize and bomw the outstanding achievernesits of disabled persons and individuals who have worked exten- sively with disabied persons.

THE NEWS/POST Page 5 The Candidates In Scarborough Centre & Scarborough West Federal Ridings SCARBOROUGH CEN- TRE This riding has nip- --.flopped with the party in power since it was created for the 1990 election. The Liberals won it then but in 1984 the Tories under Pauline Browes claimed it as part of its clean up of Scarborough. s is pro - Y the safest Toryseat this time around in Scar- borough and unless the par- ty takes a nose dive in Metro, Browes will be unbeatable. Browes, 50, a teacher and former chairman of the Scarborough Board of Health, has earned berself a reputation as one of the hardest working MPs around. She was rto environ- ment this past year and was the prime force behind getting the federal govern- ment to commit $10 million towards saving the Rouge. Pauline Browes says she is committed to continuing to listen to her constituents and then taking action. Trying to unseat Brower is NDP Garth Dee, 31, a lawyer, who says he is the only candidate who lives in the riding. He attacks Brvwes in his literature for having been appointed by the federal government to the Ontario Residential Tenancies Commission in 1981 claiming it was a paw appointment - The Liberal candidate is Odysseus Katsaitis, 35, an economics professor at York University. He says dwring up the environ- ment should be a top federal government priori- ty- He supports adequate peasioos for senors, affor- dable horsing for all Cana- dians and affordable day care for all working The riding's Greek com- munity accounts for only 14% of the 87,000 residents of this riding where 79% speak English at home. Katsaitis will have to broaden his base beyond the ethnic community if he wants to defeat Brower. Libertarian Dusan Kubias is also running. This rifiag has more than the provincial average of families and single -parent immigrants. Its boundaries are Ytctoria Lottery Winner A Scarborough resident, Alvin 2aichkowsld of vic- toria Park Ave. won $25,000 iastanUy in the Ontario Lottery Corporation's Ins- tant Game, 3 Card Match.

SCARBOROUGH WEST Reg Stackhouse, the former principal of Wycliffe College at the University of Toronto, should be able to hang on for another term in this riding which, like the others in Scarborough, is not a stronghold for any one party. Stackhmse has been a sbaig and vocal backbencher during his tease. Dave Gracey, a high School principal is making a second attempt to become the area's MP. Gracy should not be counted out since this riding provincially is a NDP atrooghold. TomWappel is the Liberal candidate, who won his party's nomination with the support of anti- abortion groups. Anne Yang is running for the L'bertarian Party. This riding of just over 91,000 has a large im- migrant populatim and the highest percentage of residents with less than a grade 9 education of all five Scarborough ridings. It has the lowest family average income of the Scarborough ridings as well as the highest number of low in- come families.

Nov. 16, 19M Bill Watt's Worlds ON YOUR TOES: Ballet's back and Billy's happy. So close do we feel to the National Ballet of Canada that we invariably refer to it simply as The Ballet; rather much in the manner of Yale and Har- vard alumni referring to the annual match as simply The Game. Anyway, for the opening of the Fall Season at The O'Keefe, The National has chosen Tchaikowsky's The Sleeping Beauty to the choreography of Nureyev after Petipa. The Beauty is a war horse but a magnificent war horse and we suspect that The National's produc- tion might well be con- sidered among the stan- dards against which all others should be measured. It is so good that even given a less than perfect presen- tation it is still enjoyable; which by a circuitous and perhaps even waffling route is our way of saying ^'NEMC DF.%t)CRAN Garth DEE that the opening night per- formance was not as good as it should and could have been. The corps was decidedly off - missed entrances, unsteady attitudes - and many of the soloists were less than secure in their dance ending placements. To be fair, Tchaikowsky's score. while melodious and lush in composition is spar- tan in delineation. The au- dience is frequently sur- prised by seeming abrupt endings. Perhaps that can affect the dancers. Still. the company has performed the work many times. Why was it off on opening night? The evening was saved and gloriously so by the two principals, Yoko Ichiino and Gregory Osborne. The Sleeping Beauty is a We of enchantment and Miss Ichino is just enchan- ting! Her mere Pr's brightens a stage and when said presence is framed in "/ cannot imagine a better M. P. for Scarborough Centre than Garth'; says David Warner.

Migawd, her dainty en pointe! Ably partnering her was Gregory Osborne. He is a tall, handsome man with a profile not unlike that of George Washington; he looks regal. Add to this, towering strength in les pas de deux and breathtaking work en fair and the result is indeed wondrous. There is no doubt that the company will have got it together by the conclusion of the engagement but a huge debt is owed Miss Ochino and Mr. Osborne. IN THE GALLERIES: Let it be confessed that our appreciation of sculpture is within the parametres that embrace duelangelo and Barbara Hepworth with perhaps a slight indentation for Henry Moore. That said, allow us to comment that the current exhibition of Maryon Kan- taroff at the Kinsman Robinson Galleries (25 Prince Arthur Ave.) is one to which readers should hie themselves at speed. Once there, allow the sensuous serenity of Ms. Kantar'off's semi -abstract woks to flow over one's troubled spirits like a benison. The lady - a most attrac- tive lady in her person; we could be falling in love again - wat in N once but does not limit her creativi- ty to duneasion. Some are extpdsitely somal; some are dominant; all are sen- suous. One wants to touch them, to run one's hand over ►..hem, to enjoy them intimate- ly; not from a distance. The new breed of tec ie types would likely describe Ms. Kantaroff's loves works as a equip- hands on ex- perience. We prefer to describe them as a physical rendering of what the human experience would be. Given solidity they cannot be described as ethereal; they are physical. Physically gen- tle and gently physical. Now there is a year round altemative to the high costs of buying NEW sports equipment. All items are fully recondi- tioned and priced to please.

A phantom is a category of coins which appear to be er- rors or varieties bid actually fall into other groups. Phan- toms include coins whose abnormalities result from post - striking damage and novelty coins. One of the most interesting phantom coins was the "gold" nickel of 1883. During 1883 the United States Mint in- augurated a design change for the nickel, placing a Liberty head on obverse and a Roman numeral five ( represented by the letter V) on the reverse. In an effort to achieve a design of classical symmetry the Mint decided that the let- ter V was sufficient indentification of the can's face value and omitted the word "cents". The coin was accepted by the general public because most people were familiar with Roman numerals but soon an unanticipated problem arose. An ingenious tramp nam- ed Josh Tatum bought a bottle of gold varnish and dipped the nickels, turning them a bright golden color. When nearsighted shopkeepers and foreigners unfamiliar with U.S. currency saw the golden nickels, they assumed ( with a little help from Josh, of course) that the V had to mean five dollars, not five cents. Tatum knew how to pass and promote the coins and col- lected several hundred dollars by making a five cent pur- chase with a "golden nickel" and receiving $4.95 in change before he was finally apprehended. The courts, luckily for Josh, found the case rather hilarious and acquitted him on all counts. Tatum's defense argument was that he was just joking and as a result a new American idiom - "Just Joshing" - came into our language.
