71beatre Festival by receiv-
ing six nombetions from
the tes caltIgo riea.
Theatre Durham's entry
to the festival was The In-
sanity of Mary Girard by
Lurie Robertsatu. Based on
a true story in IM. the
play tells the story of how a
powerful husband commits
his wife to a meatal in-
stitute despite the fact that
she is sane.
The production was
nominated for Best
Technical Achievement.

Outstanding Director
(Diane Quinn , and
Outstanding Ensemble
Work.
The last two nominations
were captured by the group
as Diane Quinn won for
outstanding director and
for outstanding ensemble
work. The young cast and
crew for the production had
been rehearsing the show
for about two months
before taking it on the road
to the Oakville Festival.
The group and Theatre
Durham made quite a
name for themselves, con-
sidering this was the first
festival that they had
entered.
Quinn, one of the foun-
ding members of Theatre
Durham and the director of
The Insanity of Mary
Girard said, "everyone
was buzzing about Theatre
Durham. they all wanted to
know who we were and
where we came from."
This was especially the
case after receiving more
nominations for awards
than any other group.

At Last!
by Bob Watson
The announcement last week that Eastern Power
Developers Inc. is going to build a plant at the Brock West
Dump in Pickering to harness the gases and make electrici-
ty to supply to Ontario Hydro is finally the start of a positive
move at garbage dumps.
For years now the gas from the Beare Rd. former dump
has been burning into the atmosphere wastefully because
no one seemed to be concerned about this waste of valuable
energy. The gas is still burning away and we are all losing
the potential fuel.
It is important that we recycle all garbage and utilize
whatever can be converted from our waste. We would like
to see electric plants at all dumps and as many things
recycled which can be reused without going to the dump.
There is plenty of room in this area for entrepreneurs to
make a profit and save all of us from unnecessary waste.
Expensive Languages
The Scarborough Board of Education is elected by the
taxpayers of Scarborough to look after the educational
needs of the people of Scarborough. In their wisdom, during
the past years Trustees have voted against asking the city's
taxpayers to unnecessarily pay for the teaching of heritage'
languages here. when the only ones who would benefit from
this expense would be grandparents or parents who have
come to live in Scarborough but have never made an at-
tempt to learn the working language of our city and coun-
try. English. but want us to service their interests out of the
public purse.
Because Scarborough has not bowed down in abject sup-
plication to Ontario's "little god" of education known as
Education Minister Chris Ward. he has put forward legisla-
tion forcing all school boards to offer heritage language
programs in Ontario_ Under this guise he is hitting directly
at Scarborough which in the past Hasn't supported this pro-
gram out of our educational funds.
Scarborough has done a much better job to help these
parents to teach their own ckuldren their own heritage
languages by giving them the free use of our schools and
class rooms without limiting the amount of time they have
to do their teaching. i The heritage plan is limited to 2-1 2
hrs. per week and must have at least 25 students per class.)
These classes are held during the winter months so they
have hated accommodation. The only thing they have to
pay for is their own teachers and books but they have full
control of whom thew hire that will suit them best.
Mr. Ward, whose government is trying to milk the people
of Ontario for more taxes in their new budget just out, could
save the public six or seven million if this program was
handled by the parents (as in Scarborough) who would be
paying for their teachers and books only, rather than the
excessive costs of bureaucracy which is the larger part of
these milions of cost. It would cost another :1,500,000 if
Scarborough is forced to offer these classes over and above
what the cost is for the heated class rooms.
What is really needed is the English language being
taught to the 24'16 who are listed as being functionally il-
literate (cannot read or write) in the province. This is made
up adults and drop outs plus the many immigrants who
have come to Canada and settled in Scarborough, so they
can get jobs, be able to read our street signs to get around,
be able to read instructions on medicine containers etc.
Mr. Ward has a peculiar idea of what should be a priority
for us, but then so does his party. They are spending billions
in trying to accommodate 4.6% of our population to pay for
these unnecessary French services in Ontario.
For example: in the legislative assembly hall where they
meet. each seat is wired so that the members can hear anv
speech or utterance made in the French language,
regardless of the fact that each member can speak English.
There are only about two francoptones that are members.
This means that they must keep translators who can give
instant translation there all the time. A redundant but very
costly expense paid for by our tax money.
They instigate these excessive and unnecessary costs at a
time when they cannot find enough money for housing, day
care and hospitals etc. the necessities needed.
Mr. Ward and Mr. Peterson, cancel your expensive
heritage language legislation and keep out of Scarborough
where we know Mw to do things at a more reasonable cost.

home sales decreased 26.3 percent according to a survey
just released by The Canadian Real Estate Association
(CREA) .
Ride For Sight
If you listen carefully and concentrate, you can probably
hear the roar of activity as dedicated motorcyclists from
Newfoundland to British Columbia voluntarily plan and
prepare for the 10th Anniversary Ride For Sight scheduled
for June 10 - 11th. Its goal is to raise $l million for the RP
Eye Research Foundation, which uses these funds to sup-
port Canadian scientific research into retinal eye diseases.
:00,000 Library Grant
The Ontario Library Association will receive a grant of
f:L00,000 to support operating casts for the Ontario Public
Library Strategic Plan, a long term library development
project. The grant will fund salaries, expenses and equip-
ment of a planning group which will work to define goals
and objectives for public library service to the year 2000
and beyond.
Development Grant
Villa Dupax Rihzal of Metro Toronto Inc. has been award-
ed a s1,000 development grant from the Province of On-
tario. Murad Velshi, MPP for Don Mills has announced.
Velshi said the grant will be used to help offset the costs of
incorporating a non-profit housing organization and prepar-
ing an initial submission to the government [aider a federal -
provincial non-profit Musing program.
Trouble For Business
In The New Trespass Law
Business and public facilities across the province may
soon lose their ability to fight unacceptable behaviour on
their premises, says Norman Sterling, MPP for Carleton
and Progressive Conservative Critic for the Ministry of the
Attorney General.
Sterling says a new government bill, Bill 149, amends the
Trespass Act by restricting a property owner's right to
evict, and gives new rights to gangs, derelicts, and trouble-
makers.
The Conservative MPP has launched a province -wide
campaign against the bill, providing some 10,000 businesses
and public facilities in Ontario with information and a
survey on the bill.
"Under our present law, the owner has the right to con-
tml access to his or her premises in return for accepting the
responsibility of ensuring public safety. Under Bill 149, the
discretionary power to ask someone to leave is greatly
reduced," says Sterling.
Bill 149 forces an owner to post "reasonable" rules of con-
duct for the premises. If an individual violates one of the
rules, the owner must give notice of the rule breached and
inform the individual of his or her defense under the bill.
The written notice can be effective for 30 days.
But the individual in question may object to the notice, in-
sisting the rules were rat broken. The individual can then
remain on the premises until the matter is resolved in
court.
"While I support any initiatives to protect youth and
minorities from discrimination, I think Bill 149 creates
more problems than it solves by increasing bureaucracy
and confrontation when attempting to remove a
trespasser," says Sterling.
Sterling expects to release the results of his survey on Bill
149 1n approximately six to eight weeks. —

Outstripping second place California at 5386 million.
Almost one person in seven - more than 1.5 million Cana-
diarm - was self-employed in 1986, owning and operating a
business, farm or professional practice, providing a per-
sonal service or selling on an independent basis. In the
decade from 1975, Statistics Canada figures show the
number of self-employed persons grew twice as fast as paid
workers.
As was true for all workers in the decade leading up to
1986, part -tune work was the fastest growing segment
among the self-employed workers, the Statistics Canada
figures show. The number of part-time self-employed
workers jumped 155% in this period while the number of
full-time workers nose just 44%.
Cruelty
I killed a spider yesterday. It was crawling on my floor so
I killed it.
It wasn't bothering me, but it was there.
What right does that spider have to be in my home,
It should not roam where men live for I am superior
I am a mortal
Yes I agree it may have been harmless, but not to me
The inconsiderate pest would do the most primitive of acts
It would stalk its prey
In my home.
What right does he have to kill an innocent creature. .
How can it be so cruel .. .

Bill Watt's Worlds
AT THE OPERA:
There is a tendency
among the uninitiated to
think of opera as a static
art form. It's true the
' `older" operas are
perhaps more popular than
their contemporary
brethren but it is not an ab-
solute that only age can
equate with quality. Opera,
as all art forms, is or
should be in evolution. New
works should always be in
consideration.
Toward this end the
Canadian Opera Company
has created the
Composers -in -Residence
program and it was our re-
cent pleasure to attend the
world premiere of three
new works arising out of it.
The premieres were held
in the Texaco Opera Centre
and the titles of the three
one act works were An Ex-
pensive Embarrassment,
The Unbelievable Glory of
Mr. Sharp and Dulcitius;
Demise of Innocence.
The first by Denis
Gougeon is a pleasant little
trifle involving an offer of
marriage being confused
with a proposition of a
business transaction.
As an opera it's little
more than a set piece with
music. There are no
melodies of any conse-
quence and certainly no
arias that linger in one's
memory.
In addition, it is perform-
ed in English as are all of
these three new works and
we continue to insist that
English cannot ever be the
language of comic opera.
Still, the singing of the
principals was beyond
reproach and that surely is
the reason for one's love of
the art form.
Baritone Patrick
INmney, looking like a
young Russ Tamblyn, was
in good form as the almost
neurotic Stockmayer and
Mary Anne Barcellona
sang nicely as the flibber-
tigibette object of his mar-
riage proposal. John Avey
was a suitable silly ass as
her father.
The work belonged.
however, to Steven Horst
as the butler Thriftless.
The role calls for intricate
stagecraft which Mr. Horst
performed with all
necessary dispatch topped
off with some fine singing
in the closing scenes.

Ontario Historic Waterways
Now Open To Navigation
The 1989 navigation
season has opened on the
Rideau Canal and the Tient
Severn Waterway, historic
waterways operated by the
Canadian Parks Service.
Respectively, the two
systems allow boaters to
travel from Ottawa to
Mngston and from Trenton
to Port Severn on the
shores of Georgian Bay.
The lakes and rivers in bet-
ween offer some of the best
vacation havens in Central
and Eastern Ontario.
Construction of the
Trent -Severn Waterway
began in 1933 although the
system was not open to
through navigation until
1920. It boasts several
engineering marvels in-
cluding a marine railway
at Big Chute and the
historic Peterborough Lift
Lock, the world's highest
hydraulic lift lock, now
operating for its 84th
navigation season.
The waterway connects
the Severn River, Lake
Simcoe, the Kawartha
Lakes and the Trent River.
A through trip covering the
386 km length of the water-
way takes about a week. In
1988, more than 255,914
boats passed through the
Trent Severn Waterway
locks.
1989 marks the 157th con-
secutive navigation season
for the Rideau Canal.
Originally built by British
military engineers, it now
serves as a recreational
waterway.
At several locations, the
history of the region is
brought alive by canal in-
terpreters and Canadian
Parks Service staff who
still operate the locks by
hand. The Rideau Canal
will operate until Oct. 11.
The Sault Ste. Marie
Canal will remain closed to
navigation for the season
due to structural damage
that occurred in July 1967.
Overnight mooring and
camping permits are
available on a daily basis
for boaters staying at
lockstations along the
Rideau and Trent Severn
canals.

Bad Week For Environmentalists
by Gay Abbate
Last week was a bad one
for Scarborough en-
vironmentalists.
First, Scarborough Coun-
cil refused to give Save the
Rouge Foundation $185,000
towards restoring the
historic Pearse House on
Zoo property in the Rouge.
Then, a developer
bulldozed about three acres
of trees which were home
to hatching birds, nursing
squirrels and chipmunks,
wild flowers and 90 ft. high
white pines.
As if that wasn't enough
for one week, an oil spill
last Friday in the Rouge
River threatened hatching
goslings and ducklings. En-
vironmental crews were
busy over the weekend
cleaning up the spill in Glen
Rouge Park in West Hill.
No one knows how the oil
got there but it may have
been dumped into a catch
basin.
As for the woodlot, the
developer, Palisades
Homes, was perfectly
within his right to cut it
down. It is part of a 35 acre
development.
But Jim Robb of Save the
Rouge said he had been
assured by company of-
ficials no trees would be cut
until he had had a chance to
discuss how the woodlot
could be saved and incor-
porated into the develop-
ment. Robb said the day
the meeting was to take
place he discovered the
woodlot had been bulldozed
over the weekend.
Robb said the developer
could at least have let the
public take the wood and
the wild flowers. He said
his plan to incorporate the
woodlot would have in-
creased the value of the
project -
Robb said he was able to
save a few newly hatched
birds and took them to the
Humane Society. "It's a
case of sheer ignorance.
It's senseless destruction."
Council's decision
against giving any money
to restore Pearse House
likely means it will be
Another Community Gets
Freeze Against Monsters
by Gay Abbate
Yet another community
has had a freeze put on it to
prevent the construction of
any more monster homes.
About 188 homes in the
Cfiffcrest community are
affected by the freeze. Two
weeks ago. council put a
freeze on some 1,000 homes
in central Agincourt as a
result of residents' request.
A section of Courcelette
Rd. also received a freeze
last month after two
monster homes went up on
tiny 25 ft. lots.
In this latest freeze,
residents asked the city for
protection when they learn-
ed a 4,800 sq. ft. bome was
going up in their
neighbourhood of 1,200 sq.
R. bungalows. The area af-
fected is Fenwood heights,
Scarborough Heights
Blvd., Ayre Point Rd and
LakehW Cres. The freeze
restricts homes to 2.500 sq.
ft. which is still about dou-
ble the sine of the existing
homes and a height of 31 ft.
Rolf Richter told cou ricil
that affordable housing
was being replaced by ex-
pensive monoliths". He
said monster homes are
..ghettoes for the well off
and pushing the middle
class out of the city.
Councillor Doug Mahood
said society is changing
aad the city got caught with
inadequate zoning in place
to protect residents.
But councillor John War-
drope called the freeze "an
attack on land rights".
Scarborough is trying to
come to grips with the pro-
blem of monster homes. A
report outlining possible
solutions to the problem

Centenary Hospital Takes
Public Trustee To Court
by Gay Abbate
Scarborough Centenary
Hospital has taken the On-
tario Public Trustee's Of-
fice to court over its deci-
sion that the hospital can-
not proceed with an addi-
tion.
The public trustee ruled
that a proposed three-
story, :12-;14 million ex-
pansion cannot proceed
because it would have a
retail profit-making. It said
that the hospital must use
the lands strictly for
charitable purposes.
The expansion, to be built
at the front of the hospital,
would have doctors offices
on the top two floors and
retail stores on the first.
Most of the stores would be
medical -related such as
pharmacy, optometrist and
dental. The aim of the addi-
tion is to better serve pa-
tients by providing a full
line of services under one
roof. It would also include a
McDonald's restaurant.
The hospital argued that
it had already received
permission for the addition
from the Ministry of Health
and that the public trustee,
by interfering, was trying
to exercise power over the
ministry. The public
trustee's lawyer argued
that the office was asked by
the ministry for its com-
ments.
Thee hearing ended last
week but Mr. Justice John
Osler who heard the case
deferred his decision.

demolished, said Robb.
Council accepted a staff
report that said the house
was in deplorable shape
and should be demolished.
But an architect who
specializes in restorations
said it could easily be sav-
ed.
Save the Rouge had
hoped to use the house,
once restored, for its own
offices as well as a
museum, wildlife art
gallery, resource centre,
educational centre and
community meeting place.
Save the Rouge
estimated it would cost
about ;400,000 to restore
the house and another $1
million to operate it. It had
other funds lined up but
they were contingent upon
Scarborough also con-
tributing.
While it refused to give
any money council did
agree to look at other op-
tions for permanent offices
for Save the Rouge.
However, Robb said offices
for the group was not the
prime reason it wanted to
restore the house. It is a
chance to preserve a bit of
Scarborough's past, he
argued before council.
Council endorsed in prin-
cipal a resource inter-
pretative centre to promote
the preservation of the
Rouge and agreed to set up
a special committee to find
a location for it. The vote
was 8 to 7.
The seven voting against
were Ward 1 Harvey Bar-
ron, Ward 2 Gerry
Altobello, Ward 3 John
Wardrope, Ward 5 Marilyn
Mushinisl i, Ward 6 Paul

Building Prestige Business Park
by Gay Abbate
The Scarborough -based
Miller McAsphalt Ltd. is
planning to build a prestige
business and industrial
park which may be the fust
of its kind in the Metro
Toronto market.
The project is to be built
on 133 acres (54.38 hec-
tares) just south of the
Metro Zoo on the north side
of Sheppard between
Meadowvale Rd. and the
Miller McAshpalt head-
quarters just east of Morn-
ingside Ave.
In addition to the in-
dustrial park, the Proposal
calls for a restaurant -
banquet facility which will
be available for weddings,
parties and conferences, a
golf driving range, a prac-
tice green, a pro -shop
facility, a regulation size
softball diamond which will
be given over to the city to
operate and a non-profit
day care facility for in-
fants, toddlers and pre-
schoolers.
But what sets this project
off from other business
parks is the approach
taken by Miller McAsphalt.
In developing the pian, the
company has worked close-
ly with local ratepayer
groups and Save the Rouge
Valley environmental
group -
Ass as result of this close
working relationship, the
project will impose quality
landscape guidelines, pro-
vide for larger than re-
quired setbacks from the
valley edge and preserve
existing vegetation.
The company also plans
a lengthy nature trail near
the top of the valley bank.
All these measures are in-
tended to create the image
of a "green door park"
says the company's promo-
tional brochure.
The project will create
an estimated 5,0006,000 in-
dustrial and office jobs as
well as generate about $5.6
million annually for the ci-
ty in business and in-
dustrial taxes.

Comments Regar-
ding Air Traffic Con-
trollers Shortage at
Pearson Airport
The primary reason for
the continued flight cap at
Pearson Airport is the air-
port's serious shortage of
air traffic controllers. In a
letter to Federal Transport
Minister Benoit Bouchard,
the board urges the balanc-
ing of Canada's air system
resources by transferring
staff from other, less con-
gested, airports to Pearson
Airport.
To improve on the
drastic failure rate, the
board recommends that
students entering the train-
ing college at Cornwall
share the same attributes
and qualities of those con-
trollers already westing.
Finally, the board is calling
for increased on site train-
ing spaces at Pearson Air-
port -
The continuing problems
at Pearson Airport are af-
fecting not only Southern
Ontario travellers but
those all across the coun-
try. as Pearson is the ma-
jor domestic passenger
hub. The board continues to
urge a quick resolution to
the problems at Pearson
Airport.
Response to Draft
Report of the Ontario
Ministry of Financial
Institutions "Building
on Reform: Choices
for Tomorrow's Pen-
sions"
The board finds certain
elements of the proposed
changes to the Ontario Pen-
sion Benefits Act, contain-
ed in "Building on Reform:
Choices for Tomorrow's
Pensions", unacceptable.
The board's major
recommendations include:
that members of defined
contribution plans and
multi-employer plans
should be treated con-
sistently with members of
defined benefit plans in the
provision of inflation pro-
tection; that a five-year
delay in the indexation of
deferred pensions for early
retirees be implemented;
that plans with fewer than
100 employees be exempted
from indexing legislation;
that no legislation be in-
troduced which could pre-
judice decisions already
made by plan sponsors con-
cerning pension plan con-
versions; that pension
plans with solvency defi-
ciencies of over $1 million
should not be required to
submit annual valuations;

Tues. June 13th at the Scar-

Scarborough's business
community is one of the
strongest and most in-
novative communities in
Ontario with the capacity
to significantly increase
exports under the Canada -
US Free Trade Agreement
which went into effect Jan.
1, 1989.
Anyone interested in ob-
taining financial assistance
to promote exports to the
United States is urged to at-

Waste Management
Code of Practice
The board has approved
the Waste Management
Code of Practice to be
recommended for use by
member companies. The
Code of Practice is a set of
principles and guidelines
for companies to follow to
help eliminate waste dur-
ing production, to dispose
of waste responsibly and to
encourage recycling and
reuse.
The board's support for
this code of practice in-
dicates its commitment to
promoting responsible
management of waste
within the business com-
munity.

Metro Toronto
Report -0-
Peter E. OylerLIL _..
Metropolitan Toronto
Councillor
East York
The success of Metropolitan Toronto is largely the result
of a public finance system that has worked. Programs that
serve the public have been designed, delivered and cost
shared between the provincial government and the
municipal government. As a result property taxes, up until
now, have not been excessive.
In the past Canada's public finance system seemed to be
in balance. In other words total government revenues met
or exceeded total expenditures. Surpluses in revenues
resulted at both the federal and provincial levels. Today
however the system is out of balance - expenditures greatly
exceed revenues. The federal government is running at a
massive deficit and only the Metropolitan Toronto and
other municipal governments generate a surplus.
The growing pressure on governments to reduce the
deficits has worked through the system and has affected the
relationship between Metro and the Province. The financial
partnership has weakened. The Province announced at the
end of 1988 that unconditional grants would not be increased
to Metro. All increases would be directed to conditional
grants as the Province saw fit.
This shift in policy to transfer some of the casts of
previously provincially funded programs to the municipali-
ty will restrict the initiatives of the municipalities and place
an added burden on the taxpayer. Until now the Province of
Ontario has led Metro into delivering cost shared programs
which the public has come to expect. In order to continue to
deliver these programs municipal tax dollars will have to
be found unless in the next budget process severe cuts are
made to these programs. Basically we have two choices:
1) continue to fund existing programs at additional costs
due to the provincial cutbacks or
2) eliminate some or all of these programs.
I would welcome your comments as to your preferences
or alternatives. On Apr. 26, 1989 Metro Council approved its
budget of $2.1 billion for 1989.
WHERE LS OUR PROPERTY TAX DOLLAR GOING'
Metropolitan Toronto's share of funding an additional
1.000 day care spaces in 1989 is estimated at $28.4 million.
The provincial shortfall in providing funding for Horses for
the Aged is estimated at $5.1 million for 1989. Other Com-
munity and Social Service programs will cost Metro an ad-
ditional $2.4 million in 1969.
The province has traditionally funded 50% of the capital
costs for roads. Freezing at 1989 levels will result in a short-
fall of $6.1 million to Metro to maintain ctar•ent levels of ser-
vice. Add to that special projects such as widening of the
Gardiner Expressway, the Front St. and Leslie St. exten-
sions at a total cost of $340 million. This figure does not take
into consideration any shortfall resulting from the province
not providing 50% funding.
In addition there are other charges which will have to be
borne by Metro as a result of the provincial cutbacks:
-$15 million 155.5 in 19891 capital funding for Solid Waste
Environmental Assessment Plan.
-534.2 million ($13.3 in 1989) for the Metropolitan Recycling
program.
-another $18.8 in 1989 Kill impact from the funding of such
programs as increased disabled transit services: vehicle
testing facilities; funding for the Metropolitan Toronto
Region & Conservation Authority.
The total impact arising from the provincial transfer pay-
ment reductions is a staggering $72.5 million.
IMPACT ON EAST YORK - Property and School board
taxes per household
Household Assessment 5000. East York $36.10, Metro
$43.30, School Board Separate $119.75, Public $120.75.
Household Assessment 6000. East York $43.32, Metro
$51.96, School Board Separate $143.70• Public 144-90.
Household Assessment 7000. East York $50.54, Metro
$66.62, School Board Separate $167.65, Public $169.05.
Household Assessment 800o. East York $57.76, Metro
$69.28, School Board Separate 191.60, Public 193.20.
Household Assessment 9000. East York $64.96, Metro
$77.94, School Board Separate 215.55, Public $217.55.
I did not support the increase in expenditures for 1989 for
a 12.4% mill rate increase. Despite the efforts of myself,
Mayor Dave Johnson ( East York ) , Chris Stockwell
(Etobicoke ) , and Brian Harrison ( Scarborough ) to reduce
expenditures by a full 2%, a majority of the Council passed
the 12.4% increase.
If you have any comments or questions concerning the
budget or any other issue please feel free to communicate
with my office.

Hockey - Is It A
Dangerous Game
Every year, young
hockey players are blinded
because they neglect to
take simple precautions. A
stick that's a little too high,
a puck accidentally fired at
a player, an awkward
plunge to the ice: all these
things can have
devastating results for
players who are not proper-
ly outfitted.
Dr. Thomas Pashby, a
noted eye specialist and
pioneer in safety standards
for hockey, has seen lives
ruined because of un-
rrecessary hockey injuries.
"Just last year I had a 30
year old truck driver who
lost his eye after taking a
puck in it," explained Dr.
Pashby. "He couldn't work
as a driver anymore. The
game was supposed to be
fun and he lost his eve and
his job. It didn't have to
happen ..
Standards For Safetv
Fortunately, these tragic
injuries are quickly becom-
ing a thing of the past
thanks in great part to the
recent development of
standards for protective
hockey equipment. For his
key role in this area, Dr.
Pashby received the Jean
P. Carriere award, the
country's highest stan-
dards &stinction, from the
Standards Council of
Canada.
With the help of other
researchers and experts,
Dr. Pashby was instrumen-
tal in creating guidelines
for safe, effective helmets
and masks. Equipment
certified to meet the re-
quirements of these stan-
dards, published by the
Canadian Standards
Association ( CSA ), is now
widely available in spor-
ting gooks stores.
If your youngsters are
playing minor league
hockey, they are un-
doubtedly already weanng
this essential equipment.
The Canadian Amateur
Hockey Association re-
quires it. If you or your
children are nes wearing
masks and helmets, you're
playing a dangerous game.
Last year alone, 62 people
experienced eye injuries on
the ice and 11 were blinded
in one eye. done of these
ticer-
tified masks.
What To Cook Out For
There are two types of
masks commonly
available: wire and
transparent polycar-
bonate. By law, both types
must be certified, and both
offer good protection to a
player's entire face. But be
sure the equipment you
choose is intended for
hockey or you may find it
does not comply with
hockey standards.
The wire mask is simply
a protective cage for the
face, while the more expen-
sive polycarbonate model
is a shell of clear plastic.
Its sophisticated, high tech
look may be attractive to
older players but the
plastic needs more careful
handling. Cleaning and
storage should be done as
specified by the manufac-
turer since some chemicals
may weaken the shell.
Polycarbonate masks that
are severely scratched or
cracked, or have
undergone heavy impact,
should be replaced.
Dr. Pashby, a minor
league coach for many
years, stresses the impor-
tance of choosing the size
and style of equipment
suited to a player's in-
dividual needs. Avoid ill fit-
ting hand me downs: an
oversized helmet. or one
with a worn out lining or
damaged shell dales not
provide adequate protec-
tion.
The cost of proper pro-
tection is low when you con-
sider the alternative.
Helmets cost between SM
and $55. A wire mash may
put you back $20 while a
polycarbonate protector
costs in the area of $35. And
renxmiber, children aren't
the only ones who can be in-
jured. According to Dr.
Pashby, the average age
for eye injuries has gone
from 14 to 26 years because
older players are reluctant
to wear masks.
Once vou've selected the
equipment that is ap-
propriate for your child or
yourself, be sure to follow
the mask's mounting in-
structions closely, or ask
your sporting goods dealer
to do the job for you. The
time you take to select. sloe
and install equipment will
ultimately pay off in more
enjoyable. safer hockey.

Victoria Day Sprints

Hobbs qualified 3rd, and
when the race started, he
immediately took over 2nd
place, closely hounding
Normand Boyer of St.Anne
Des Lacs, PQ. This went on
for 6 laps, and with his ex-
perience as an ex-

everyone was waiting for
the last corner of the last
lap to see Lee's move for
the win.
But nothing is certain in
motor -racing; on lap 7
Hobbs' temperature w�uaage

leaking radiator, and he
had to retire.
"I could have taken

Future Looks Rosy For Teachers
by Gay Abbate
For the first time in
years, the future looks rosy
for secondary school
teachers.
Whereas last year, more
than 200 teachers were
declared surplus across
Metro Toronto, this year
only 68 have lost their jobs
and most of these are in
Scarborough and North
York.
The Scarborough Board
declared 29 surplus but
needs to hire 40 new
teachers. Unfortunately,
the qualifications of the 29
do not coincide with the
subjects needed. At the
elementary level, Scar -
Fashion Gala
Date Changed
The City of North York's
"Legends & Illusions, The
Magic of Fashion Gala"
which was scheduled to
take place on Thurs. May
25th has been changed to
Sat. Sept. 16th.
The black tie affair will
begin at 7 p.m. with a
gourmet food and cham-
pagne reception, followed
by a gala performance
beginning at 9 p.m. and
desserts and dancing at
10:30 p.m.
The event will be held at
Seneca College Minkler
Auditorium, 1759 Finch
Ave. E. Tickets are $200
per person and can be pur-
chased by calling the City
of North York at 2244475.
borough has already hired
more than 100 new
teachers.
The situation is the same
across Metro. Boards are
crying out for teachers in
French Immersion, math,
computers, business and
some technical subjects.
In 1987, Scarborough had
117 surplus teachers down
from the 150 in 1966.
Teachers can thank the
federal government's im-
migration policy, in part,
for the available jobs, say
school officials. William
Milnes, associate
superintendent of person-
nel with the Scarborough
board, said the board is
getting more than 1,000
high school immigrant
students per year. "This is
saving us. There would be a
decrease if not for im-
migrant students."
Another reason boards
are able to hire so many
teachers this year is that
this is the last chance for
teachers to take early
retirement without
penalties. Under this
"retirement wind down"
teachers who have not
reached 90 points, that is a
combination of years work-
ed and age, can retire at
full pension. Normally,
there would be a 5% penal-
ty for every point below 90
for early retirement.

Want Expressway Scrapped
by Gay Abbate
Scarborough Council has
decided to ask Metro
Toronto to scrap once and
for all any idea of a Scar-
borough Expressway.
Scarborough also wants
Metro to sell off its surplus
lands within the 9.3 mile,
212 acre expressway route
which is now known as the
Scarborough Transporta-
tion Corridor. In its place,
Scarborough is agreeable
to retaining just enough
width within the corridor
for a possible future road.
It wants Metro to work with
Scarborough staff to come
up with interim uses for
this land such as parks.
The expressway threat
has hung over nearby
residents and businesses
since 1957 and although it
changed name and was no
longer supposed to be an
expressway Metro has re-
tained enough land to per-
mit an expressway.
The corridor follows the
CNR tracks from Victoria
Part Ave. to Manse Rd. in
West Hill and then turns
north just east of Manse
Rd. to lint with Highway
2A.
Metro Councillor Brian
Ashton said council's mo-
tion will force Metro to the
negotiating table instead of
trying to solve the issue at
the Ontario Municipal
Board. Metro has objected
to Scarborough trying to
delete the corridor from its
official plan.
Mayor Joyce Trimmer
said she doesn't want a cor-
ridor even the size of an
arterial road. However,
she doesn't want to
preclude its possible future
use as an extension of St.
Clair or Eglinton.
Increases Its
The Metropolitan Toron-
to Community Foundation
has awarded approximate-
ly one quarter of a million
dollars to more than 50
charitable organizations,
an increase of over three
times the amount from
1967.
The foundation has a
mandate to grant funds to a
broad spectrum of com-
munity needs including
health. social service, the
arts, the environment and
education.
Grants will be awarded
to the Toronto General
Hospital, Mount Sinai
Hospital and the Princess
Margaret Hospital.
Research into kidney
disease, Alzheimer's
Disease, cancer, diabetes
and Turner's Syndrome
will benefit by $25,000.

Serving the Community Since 1950
The expressway was
originally to continue into
the City of Toronto to hook
up with an extension of the
Gardner Expressway. The
City of Toronto fought the
plan and managed to sell
off most of the land within
its boundaries which lay in
the planned route thus ef-
fectively ending the cor-
ridor on the Scarborough
side of Victoria Park.

Alzheimer Disease Serious For Elderly
Canada isn't as young as
it used to be. Since the ear-
ly 1960s, the number of
Canadians over the age of
65 has grown from 1.4
million to 2.7 million. As
the trend continues, that
number will swell to 3.4
million in just over ten
years -
Science has gone a long
way in extending life ex-
pectancy and in cePi6
with the health care pro-
blems of the elderly. But
while more Canadians are
living longer, and living
better, there are still im-
portant health care issues
that face those over 65.
Alzheimer Disease is a
serious concern for our ag-
ing population. Abheirner
Disease is an incurable
brain condition that strikes
both men and women,
usually over the age of 65.
It is initially characterized
by minor forgetfulness. As
memory loss increases,
changes also appear in per-
sonality, mood and
behaviour. Judgement,
physical co-ordination,
speech and concentration
will also be affected.
Degeneration usually too-
bmues until the patient re-
quires full-time nursing
care.
In Canada now, there are
about 300,000 people suffer-
ing from the disease. By
the year 2000, that number
is expected to rise to
500.000. Each year, 10,000
people die from the
disease, although it is often
not named as the cause of
death. The Alzheimer pa-
tient usually succumbs to
such illnesses as
pneumonia or infection.
Research shows that
among the changes in the
brain that occur in
Alzheimer Disease are the
presence of neurofibrillary
tangles within nerve cells,
the appearance of "pla-
ques" that appear to cause
disruption of elec-
trochemical signals bet-
ween nerve cells, a defi-
ciency in the
neurotransmitter
acetylcholine and presence
of alumnintim.
The effect of Alzheimer
Disease reaches beyond
the patient himself. Lack of
adequate support systems
in the community makes
life difficult for those
wishing to care for the
Alzheimer patient at home
and a scarcity of suitable
institutional facilities
wean long waiting periods
for those unable to provide
home care.

about Alzheimer Disease,

Alzheimer Society or the
Alzheimer Society of
Canada, 1320 Yonge St.,

Report
from Norah Stoner
MPP Durham West
On May 17th, Ontario Treasurer Bob Nixon introduced
the new provincial budget. It has a significant impact on
Durham and I'd like to review some of the highlights.
Clearly the budget message is one of fiscal responsibility
we are reducing the deficit to $577 million - its lowest level
in 15 years. Increased expenditures are in direct response
to needs in transportaiton, health care, education, and the
environment.
Here at home we will see an accelerated rate of construc-
tion with 401 widening, an expansion of the GO train to
Oshawa, and improved GO service to Stouffville. The con-
struction of Taunton-Steeles will happen in 1990.
The provision of Junior Kindergarten in Durham has
been requested by parents in Durham for years - I
remember making a pitch for it 20 years ago. Jr. K. was a
priority in last month's speech from the throne; this budget
provides the money to make it a reality both in operating
and capital dollars.
In order to ensure additional capital for school construc-
tion we have extended our three year $900 million capital
commitment to a fourth year for a total of $1.2 billion. This
is a 300% increase over 84, 85 To Help Get Rid Of Portables!
In order to assist school boards to build even more
schools we have given them the authority to establish lot
levies. These are similar to the ones municipalities now
charge to cover the costs of providing services to new
growth areas. The huge increase in students in Durham is
directly attributable to growth - it is therefore appropriate
that growth, i.e. new houses and related commercial, in-
dustrial development, should pay for it. We are also allow-
ing school boards to access lower cast loans for capital pro-
jects-
For those who, like myself, have opposed an airport in
Pickering. you will be pleased to see that the Liberal
Government in Ontario has put its money where its mouth
is on the airport question. We have supported better tit ilirr-
tion of the Mount Hope airport in Hamilton and of Pearson
International. To that end we have committed to improve
highway access to Mount Hope and stated our willingness to
share the costs of improving transit access to Pearson with
the federal government.
We are clearly keeping the promises in bealth. OHIP
premiums will be eliminated - this is a $1 billion benefit to
individuals and families in 1990. They realize $550 million in
premium savings and $450 million in personal income taws
because the premiums as a taxable benefit will no longer
exist.
Health care is now 33% of Provincial spending and will
total $13.9 billion in 89,90. We are concentrating on improv-
ing quality, availability and efficiency of health services.
We have increased funding for Alcohol and Drug Dependen-
cy by 17.8% to $43 million. We are increasing hospital
operating funds to address specialty care needs such as
cancer care, cardiovascular services, dialysis and mater-
nal and infant health.
The hottest issue in Durham, or should I say the
smelliest, is the environment - particularly waste manage-
ment. We have responded to the high level of concern ex-
pressed about the environment by increasing funding by
70.7% since 1964 85 to a total of $SM million. This includes a
40% increase for captal outlays. Two new taxes are direct-
ly related to waste management. A tire tax will support
recycling and environmentally sound disposal of tines. A
disposal charge of $5 will be levied on each liquor or wine
container which has no deposit or recycling system. This
will help fund the Province's waste reduction and recycling
initiatives.
In my view, there is a great deal more we can do to
reduce our waste stream including large scale composting,
expanding the blue box program to include more materials
such as cardboard and plastics, and making recycling hap-
pen in apartments and commercial, industrial
establishments.
Overall, this is a "Pay -As -You -Go" budget. Responsible
fiscal management has been achieved in lowering the
deficit while meeting the needs of the people of Ontario. In
this lengthy column I have just touched a few highlights of
the budget. Anyone who would like a copy of the budget can
get one by calling my constituency office at 683-6707.
