Hydro Rates To Go Up?
Ontario Hydro should raise electricity rates by 5.3 per-
cent for 1990 to help control its debt, maintain existing
facilities and provide reliable service. This is one of 75 final
recommendations filed on July 17th at the Ontario Energy
Board hearing by the Municipal Electric Association
(M.E.A. ), a group representing Ontario's municipal hydro
utilities.
This increase would be in addition to the 2.2 percent in-
crease resulting from the $138 million levy Ontario Hydro
must pay the provincial government for guaranteeing the
utilitv's $25 billion debt.
Evidence submitted during the five-week hearing in-
dicates Hydro's debt reduction efforts have not been overly
effective. To better manage its debt and provide for stabili-
ty, the M.E.A. recommends the utility raise its 1990 net in-
come to $817 million, some $250 million more than Hydro
recommended. The M.E.A. proposal will not only reduce
hydro's debt by one percent, but will apply needed funds to
maintain aging transmission equipment.
In its argument, the M.E.A. urges hydro to continue pur-
suing its worthwhile $2 billion demand management pro-
gram over the next decade. Energy efficient technologies
will help reduce rapidly growing electricity demand.
Hydro's annual electricity sales growth continues to be in
the 4 percent range.
The association's report also expresses concerns over
Hydro's staff levels. Two thousand of the 25.000 hydro
employees were recently declared surplus because of an
operations review by an external management company.
However, staff levels continue to rise.
The association's 310 page report also recommends that
Hydro realign its above average salaries with those of com-
parable companies to help control its operating casts; con-
tinue its excellent performance in consistently surpassing
provincial government requirements for reduction of acid
gas emissioris: and accelerate its expansion program for
transmission capacity because of a high growth rate in
electricity demand.
Loonie & Higher Taxes
I saw a letter which was asking readers to express their
dissatisfaction with higher taxes by hoarding loonies. . .
The only beneficiary of such mindless buying will be the
mint. Thus, I believe the letter was written by mint lob-
byist.
If I want lower taxes. I will write - postage free - to my
Hon. Parliament Member and suggest to him to reduce
deficit by cutting spending. not by increasing taxes. Higher
taxes bring higher prices of everything.
The mint spent iriillions of dollars to persuade institutions
to order from banks a lot of loonies. They are eager to mint
and make money. At that time. I was unable to get from my
grocer any other change but a Lonnie. I was refusing them;
they are too heavy and too bulky for a normal purse.
If a dime is smaller than a nickel, why does the Loonie
have to be larger than a quarter? The higher the cost of
material, the higher the selling price. Worst of all; paper
bills stopped being printed this week -
1 am questioning if we save at all by opting for today's
Loonies. They cost initially more than paper bills, they in-
crease deficit and they must be paid by borrowed funds.
Does Mr. Wilson have his own cost accountant" Did he con-
sider the cosi of interest for taxpayers or did he simply
follow the mint proposal'
Retailers do not use standard paper bags any more,
because plastics are cheaper and more durable. They do
not use metal bags either.
Before a decision was made for the Loonie, was an alter-
native considered, even for expense of small research and
development? For example, paper bills can be sealed in
translucent plastics. Try to tear them by fingers: impossi-
ble, in contrast to paper alone. Or perhaps plastics can be
used alone. They are so good that airplanes are partly built
from them, even propellers. And they can be printed on.
Was it also ever considered, that a Lonnie can be made
smaller and lighter, also for taxpayers' bill' Was it ever
considered. who will like this huge metal in his tiny purse
compartment'
When industry plans, they consider the lifetime of new
product max. 5 years. After that, it must be updated due to
technological advance and it will be possibly cheaper (see
declining costs of high technology, computers, TV in last
decades). Calculating saving. as we were presented, for 30
years, is naive. Loonie can be justified as souvenir.
Anybody is free to write, postage free. I firmly believe
that the Loonie is contributing to higher taxes.

Mainstream Canada
A combined solution
By Ann M. Smith
As opposition continues to
mount over the federal govern-
ment's decision to go -it -alone
with the controversial new
Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Canadians hate good reason to
wonder how we ever got into
this mess in the first place
In fact it seems hard to
believe that when Finance .Min-
ister Michael Wilson originally
began formulating a plan for
the reconstruction of the
archaic sales tax system, there
was good reason to be optimis-
tic Finance department offi-
cials had, after all, entered into
a series of gruelling negotiations
with their provincial counter-
parts in the hope of combining
the provincial and federal sales
taws into a single, less comph-
ated system. So far so good.
This mood of chumminess,
however, didn't last long and
ahnost without warning, the
negociatiors fell apart. The rea-
sons now understood for the
breakdown in talks are largely
political: for their part, finance
department officials were
adamant in their decision to
implement the new tax by Jan.
1, 1991. Not only were they
eager to get their hands on the
enormous amount of revenue
that is expected to be generated
by the new tax, but the reality
of a soon -to -folk* federal elec-
tion (expected sometime in late
1992) boxed the government
into a very rigid imdarkntation
scliodule. On the other hand.
two of the largest provincial
players, Quebec and Ontario.
didn't like the 1991 deadline
because of the political conflict
that the new tax was etpected to
crate and, with elections in
their respective provinces just
around the cornier, they refused
to co-operate.
John Bulloch, president of
the 82,000 -member Canadian
Federation of Independent
Business alk the stalemate "a
disgrace,.
.•The players responsible for
the lack of co-operation on the
foderaE provincial sales tax issue
obviously felt it was more im-
portant to place party politics
before the good of the nation, ••
he said.
Instead, Bulloch says, Cana-
dians will now face a two-tier
system that will hit consumers
and small businesses the
hardest. Small retailers, for
example, do not have the com-
puterized cash registers capable
of handling the complicated
calculations required by a sys-
tem that includes both a provin-
cial sales tax (in all provinces
except Alberta) and a federal tax
of 9.0 per cent each Levied on
different goods at various
stages.
"If the government proceeds
with the plan, Canada will be
the only country in the world
Toronto has been recognized by the United Nations as the
most ethnically and racially diverse city in the world. In
celebrtion of its rich cultural diversity, and, to encourage
continued respect and tolerance for individual similarities
and differences, Toronto City Council has declared 1989 the
Year for Racial Harmony.
The Toronto Eaton Centre, in celebration of the Year for
Racial Harmony held The E.C. Street Festival, a twelve
day event with culturally diverse entertainers performing
daily which started ou Mon. July 17th and continues to July
29th.

Sales Activity Up In June
Figures released by Michael Rosen, President of the
Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB ), indicate that Metro
Toronto's housing market is stable. Members of TREB
reported 2,795 homes sales through the Multiple Listing Ser-
vice in June. The average price was $271,649 and the me-
dian price was $230,000.
$2410,000 For Toronto Arts Centre
Disadvantaged children in downtown Toronto will enjoy a
wide range of cultural opportunities in a community arts
centre purchased and renovated with the help of a $241,488
grant, Minister of Culture and Communications Lily Oddie
Munro and Attorney -General Ian Scott (MPP - St. George -
St. David) annotiriced last week.
The funding. from the Ministry of Culture and Com-
munications' Cultural Facilities Improvement Program,
has enabled Cabbagetown Community Arts Centre Inc., a
storefront community arts, recreation and social service
organization, to acquire an existing building at 454 Parlia-
ment St. as its first permanent home.
Almost without exception, today's households own
automobiles (94% of households have at least one). Back in
1937-38, only 29% of families owned a car.
with a two-tiered sales tax;'
Bulloch said.
According to Bulloch, the
best solution to this mess would
be a return to square one. In
other words, the government
should go back to the provinces
and work out a less compli-
cated, unified national sales tax.
It's no secret that Wilson is
determined to oornpkte this sec-
ond and final phase in the over-
haul of Canada's seriously
flawed tax system. But in this
haste to replace the current fed-
eral sales tax, the government
would be doing this country an
even greater disservice by
launching this nasty alter ego.

Pooldome For
Scarborough?
by Gay Abbate
The City of Toronto has
the Skydome but Scar-
borough could have this
country's fust pooldome or
aquadome.
Rod Robbie who design-
ed the Skydome says it is
possible to put a retrac-
table roof on part of the $90
million pool complex the ci-
ty announced last week it
wants to build for the
aquatic events if Toronto
gets to host the 1996 Olym-
pic Games.
"It's a very thrilling pro-
ject, a fantastic
challenge," said Robbie in
an interview. He said that
his firm will bid to design
the Scarborough facility.
"It could be the core of a
very interesting public
recreation centre after the
games," he said of the
15,000 seat proposal.
He said a retractable
roof on a pool would be dif-
ferent than the one on the
dome. He said the proposed
Scarborough complex
would be a world class
facility "better than
anything anywhere else-"
He said he wants to
design the complex so it is
a "friendly„ building - a
place where families will
want to go. "It won't be just
for the elite athlete," he
said.
One of the things Robbie
would like to see included
in the centre is a wave pool.
He said this could easily
have a retractable roof. He
also said the swimming
and diving events should be
held in Scarborough. .

Freeze sew,, preserve later
U a particular berry
season catches you short on
time or too hot to cook,
freeze the fruit and make
the sauces later. Here are
some freezing tips to cap-
ture top quality of your her-
ries-
• Freeze berries during the
peak season when flavor
and texture are at their
best and cost is reasonable.
• Prepare and freeze ber-
ries as soon as possible
after picking or purchase.
• Strawberries, raspber-
ries and blueberries, frozen
for later use in Berry
Sauces, are best frozen
whole, without sugar.
• Remove hulls from
strawberries and raspber-
ries prior to freezing. Wash
strawberries before hulling
to help them maintain their
shape. Remove all excess
moisture from berries
prior to freezing. A clean
terry towel or a salad spin-
ner are good aides to
moisture removal.
Blueberries are best if
frozen without washing.
• Measure the berries re-
quired for each recipe,
place dry berries on trays
in the freezer until firm.
When firm, transfer ber-
ries to good quality con-
tainers such as the new
grated rind
114 cup juice
13 minutes 12 minutes 11 minutes
6250 mL jars 6.250 mL jars 6230 mL jar
Bernardin Freezer Bags.
Press out all excess air and
fasten each bag securely
with the tie provided.
These unique Berry
Sauces require very little
cooking time. Unlike jams
and jellies, you need not
worry about gel tests. The
mixtures thicken slightly
during cooking and set up
to a spoonable cocky
during storage. Just an
hour in the kitchen should
take you from berries to
sealed jars of delicious
sauce.
The sauce owe their
try sheen, smooth tex-
ture and appetizing real
berry flavor to a unique
combination of sweeteners
and citrus enhancers. Corn
syrup provides the sheen
while orange or lemon
juice and ped highlight the
real fruit flavor in the not -
too -sweet sauces.
Berry Sauces Preparation:
• Fill boiling water canner
with water. Place 6 half-
pint (250 mL) mason jars in
*Cover, bring water
to a boil; boil 10 minutes at
altitudes up to 1,000 ft. to
sterilize jars. At higher
elevations, boil 1 more
minute for each additional
1,000 ft. elevation.
• In a large stainless steel
saucepan, combine fresh or
frozen berries, apple juice
and orange or lemon peel.
Heat gently, mashing ber-
ries until mixture boils.
• While maintaining a boil,
gradually add sugar, stirr-
ing until sugar is dissolved;
gradually add corn syrup
and orange or lemon juice.
( Mixture should boil con-
tinuously as sweeteners
are slowly added.) Stirring

Highest at risk are males
- accounting for 85% of the
total. In fact, in the 1549
year old age group, nine
out of ten drowning victims
are male.
One-third of drownings
involve boats, usually
small craft under 18 feet in
length with flat w rounded
bottom and, tragically,
more than 50% of all
boating fatalities involve
alcohol.
Don't become a drowning
statistic. Be water smart
.and listen to the Royal Life
Saving Society Canada
(RL4SC) water smart ad-
vice:
1. Wear Your Lifejacket or
PFD. PFDs are now
stylish, comfortable and
practical, and are
available for all ages and
various aquatic activities.
Your PFD is the best "life
insurance" policy afloat.
2. Learn To Swim. There is
no substitute for swimming
skills. Learn how. Don't ex-
ceed your ability. Super-
vise youngsters around the
water.
Think Before You Drink.
Too much alcohol impairs
your ability to think. Watch
out. You could end up in the
drink.
Be water smart and play
safe in, on and near the
water this summer.

Bill Watt's Worlds
IN PRINT:
Television ( Random
House) is a companion to
the PBS television series.
It's a handsome volume
and most interesting to
read. It is not, however, the
definitive work that seems
to be its aspiration. To be
fair, one supposes that such
a definitive work is simply
not possible given continu-
ing technological changes.
Even so, author Michael
Winship should have realiz-
ed or at least recognized
that television is not the
sole proprietorship of the
English speaking world.
His work is actually rele-
vant to television in North
America with little or no at-
tention to Canada and Mex-
ico.
Still, the book is en-
joyable and worth one's
custom. We suspect that
most pleasure is derived
from the photographs of
personalities from the ear-
ly days of the medium in
the United States. Dave
Garroway, Imogene Coca.
Gertrude Berg. Al Jarvis,
Buffalo ( sic I Bob Smith
and so many others.
Enjoyable, too. and in-
teresting are the parts of
the book dealing with the
technical aspects of televi-
sion including some most
interesting comments on
television makeup.
The only error we could
find was a reference to
director Fred Timmerman
rather than Zi nernan and
that might have been a
typo.
Oh, and have a look at the
photograph on page 263.
Isn't the referee Jack
Dempsey? And, if so,
shouldn't a photo ident
have been in order?
We really do read every
book we review, you know.
Robert Silverberg's
Worlds of Wonder ( Warner
Books) has the sub title Ex-
ploring the Craft of Science
Fiction. It is actually three
books in one.
Primarily it is a collec-
tion of 13 science fiction
stories by masters of the
craft and chosen personal-
ly by Mr. Silverberg.
Authors include Damon
Knight, C.L. Moore, Henry
Kuttner, C.M. Kornblu th
and Frederick Pohl. His
choice is obviously a sub-
jective one and equally ob-
viously so would ours have
been had we been given a
project of putting together
such a selection.
Having said that, we
wonder at the exclusion of
such as Ray Bradbury,
Isaac Asimov, Arthur C.
Clark and Eando Binder.
Possibly there are contract
or copywrite difficulties
but surely some mention
should have been made of
the quartet.
As ar anthology it is a
fine t•Ak notwithstanding

do without, however, the
other two thirds of this of-
fering. Even with the best
of intentions it is specious
for Mr. Silverberg to offer
critiques, however,
laudatory, of the selec-
tions. Astute readers do not
require his guidance.
Neither do we require his
,autobiographical essay. It
:is enough for one to know
that Mr. Silverberg is an
excellent writer in his own
right; we do not need to
know how he became so.
Even so, we'd give
anything to write as well as
be and the other gentlemen
here collected.
One of the stories in
Worlds of Wonder is
Hothouse, about a time in
the distant future when our
solar system has become
contaminated to the extent
that mankind has been
eliminated and only insect
life survives. In Hothouse
there is actually a web bet-
ween the noon and Faith.
The story is mentioned in
Arthur C. Clark's introduc-
tion to The Web Between
the Worlds by Charles Sbef-
f ield ( Del Rey Ballantine) .
The Web is concerned
with high-tech engineering
of the future generally and
specifically with the con-
cept of joining satellites
together by bridges for
easier mining of ore.
It's an intriguing concept
and the book might have
been a major triumph had
not Mr. Sheffield tarted it
up with a cockamamie sub
plot and redundant
characters.
It's a good read, though.
and as always lovers of
science fiction can be
tolerant.
ART SEEN:
We deplore the fact that
the expression "I don't
know much about art but I
know what I like" has
become a cbchb describing
well intentioned but admit-
tedly ignorant members of
the boi polloi.
It is a well worded at-
tempt to be kind on the part
of those who are not trained
or educated in a particular
discipline of the arts but
who know that art in what
ever form should be pleas-
ing to the senses as well as
the intellect.
So we submit that the
current exhibition at The
Brownstone Hotel of Mar-
jorie Moeser and Linda
Kooluris Dobbs is or will be
a successful one. We have
little doubt either that in
due course these works will
become popular as prints.
That isn't to denigrate
but rather, to state that
these bright, sunny works
are offensive to no one and
pleasing to all. If there is a
message of intellectualism
in them it has escaped this
reviewer but that's unim-
portant; what matters one
supposes, is that they
brighten a wall, any wall.
Sanibel Serendibity, for
example, from Miss
Moeser's Hemingway's
Pool presentation is an
acrylic collage on paper
that reminds one of a print
one might purchase in
Woolco. Miss Dobbs After-
noon Siesta, Athens from
the WalLwapes series is
evocative of sunny Greece
and displays some fine
technical ability in the dif-
ficult, albeit economical
medium of water colours.
Indeed both young ladies
are technically adept and
obviously oriented to the
viewer who demands
pleasure only. As such, we
wish them well and are
confident that success will
be theirs.
Still, somewhere along
the way we hope each can
find it within herself to
decry commercial oppor-
tunism and use God given
talent in the creation of
something, anything of
substance.
A cat sleeping on a win-
dow ledge as in Afternoon
Siesta, Athens is cute but
then so is Garfield the cat.
FASHION SCENE:
Nice to see Buffalo
undergoing a revival. Due
to open in August is the
Walden Galleria, a shopp-
ing facility that has
already attracted such
names as Bobwit Teller, B.
Altman, Ann Taylor and
our own Harry Rosen.
We're not sure how
customs assessment works
in the case of clothing but it
seems to us that purchas-
ing fine tailoring from
Harry Rosen just might be
more economical in Buf-
falo than in Toronto.
Certainly we'd rather
spend a Saturday in Buf-
falo than in the filthy mess
that downtown Toronto is
in danger of becoming.
Why aren't the sidewalks
being cleaned anymore?
IN CONCERT:
Two excellent pairings
are on tap for listening and
viewing pkasure.
At Roy Thomson Har,
Peter Allen and Bernadette
Peters will be "together in
performance" (clever
phrasing) from Aug_ 4th
through to the 8th. R.T.N.
can sometimes be a cold
setting for performers but
these two top talents should
certainly warm things up.
Tomorrow evening The
Forum in Ontario Place
will present Pete Seeger
and Arlo Guthrie.
Hard to believe that Mr.
Seeger is now 70 and that
Arlo Guthrie's son (&M
Woody Guthrie's grand-
son!) travels with him
when not occupied in his
duties with Xavier, a heavy
metal band.
Woody Guthrie's grand-
son in heavy metal? That's
a belluva long way from
One Meat Ball. Anyway,
Seeger and Guthrie in con-
cert is always a crowd
pleaser.
ON THE MOVE:
Nice to hear from Tim
Belch again. A few years
ago Tim was a publicist at
Ontario Place.
Now he's senior publicist
at the C.N.E. and we look
forward to seeing him
tomorrow at a luncheon of-
fering a sneak preview of
this year's Ex. CongratWa-
tions Tim.
COUNTDOWN:
It's only eight weeks till
the opening of Phantom of
the Opera at the newly
restored Pantages
Theatre.

Kite Festival At
Ontario Science Centre
The dream of flight has
captured human imagim-
tions for thousands of
years. Leonardo da Vmci's
dreams about fli& led to
the invention of
mechanical birds, wing -
powered machines and
kites.
Leonanb's dreams and
inventions will be extended
with new flights of fantasy
at the Ontario Science Cen-
tre's 3rd annual Kite
Festival, Jul. 30th through
Aug. 5th.
The kite festival is a
highlight of Leonardo da

chitect, a special travelling
exhibition organized by the
Montreal Museum of Fine
Arts and presented in co-
operation with the Associa-
tion of Professional
Engineers of Ontario, Con-
sulting Engineers of On-
tario and UNICO Foods.
Festival visitors can
make two and three-
dimensional kites, watch
films and videos about
flight, kite festivals, new
kites, see demonstrations
of kite construction, and
meet Maurizio Angeletti,
master Italian kitemaker.
Weekly Nature Walks
Weekly program offer-
ings have been expanded
for the summer at the Kor-
tright Centre for Conserva-

Visitors can now take a
guided nature walk Mon-
day to Friday at 12 noon.
The nature walks are
presented by Kortright
naturalists on a variety of
themes, including wildlife
habitat, wildflowers, and
fish habitat. Each walk is
approximately a half-hour
in length.
In addition, Kortright's
beekeeping house is open to
the public every Sunday
afternoon throughout the
summer. from 1:30 p.m. to
3:30 p.m. Visitors can talk

Ontario's New Youth Skills Programs Geared Towards
Keeping Economy Competitive
Ontario must continue to provide the leadership to build
on our economic strengths to entire tomorrow's growth. A
strong competitive economy is reliant on a skilled and
literate work force to meet market challenges posed by new
technology, changing demographics and changing global
training pattern.
Major initiatives totalling $6.6 million in apprenticeship
training and other arrangements that combine education
and on-the-job training were unveiled at Queen's Park by
Skills Development Minister Alvin Curling.
These initiatives are based in part on recent recommen-
dation made in the "Pathways" report. This report details
what happen to high school leavers and graduates once
they enter the labour force. The Ministry's three new pro-
grams are geared towards youth and are designed to
preps young people for skilled occupation.
In order to secure well -paying jobs and cope in a world of
technological change and industrial restructuring, today's
youth must become better acquainted with training option.
The following programs are designed to give young peo-
ple valuable exposure to a full-time employment environ-
ment so they can participate more fully in the workplace of
the future:
Ontario Traineeship Program
- The Trairteeship Program will allow young people who
have already left high school to get into occupation which
are needed in the marketplace. Trainees will spend bet-
ween one and two years combining on-the-job training with
shorter in -school training periods.
- Traineeship will be designed to fit the requirements of par-
ticular industries, Automotive, telecommuncation equip -

slices of French bread lightly on bar-
becue or under broiler. Spread on one
side with butter and sprinkle with finely
chopped parsley.
Makes 4 servings.

Nigh School Apprenticeship Program
- Senior high school students will be given the opportunity to
train as an apprentice while attending high school. The
students will have to be in at least grade eleven. At the end
of three years, they will get their Ontario Secondary School
diploma and two years credit towards their certification as
a qualified journeyman.
- This program was developed by the Ministry of Skills
Development in partnership with the Ministry of Educa-
tion, local school boards and chambers of commerce.
Summer Trades Experience
- Beginning in the summer of 1990, this program will allow
employers who are already training apprentices to be eligi-
ble for a one thousand dollar wage subsidy for each sum-
mer student they hire as a trades' apprentice.
- The goal of Summer Trades Experience is to let the
students gain a better understanding of the world of skilled
occupation.
The new Youth Skills Program will provide a solid foun-
dation for young people moving into rewarding careers. To-
day's workplace places a high premium on basic,
analytical and technical skills. These new measures will
help ease the transition from shcool to work for the two,-

wo-thirds of our young people who do not go on to university or
college when they leave high school.
Rapid technological advances are changing the face of
the workplace, and it is a fact of industrial life in Ontario
that there are skills shortages. The Government of Ontano
is committed to enuring that our workforce will be poised
to meet the market challenges of tomorrow.

around the Christmas holi-
day period, statistics show
that drinking drivers are 1
more likely to be involved
in accidents in the sum-
mer. About one-third of
alcohol-related crashes oc-
curred between June and i
August whereas only 18% s
took place December 1
through February 1986. to
Aboutsix million On-
tarians enjoy boating ac-
tivities during the summer,
according to the Ministry
of Natural Resources. And
more than 20% of boating
deaths are linked to alcohol
use. Ontario Provincial
Police statistics show that
64 people were killed last
year in boating acidents -
14 of the deaths were
alcohol related.
Over the course of a
year, between oche -quarter
and one-third of fatal
automobile accidents in
volve a driver who has
been drinking. Forty per-
cent. of drivers killed have
been drinking. And
weekends (Fridays 1
through Sundays) account
or two-thirds of drinking
drivers' accidents.
According to the Addic-
ion Research Foundation
ARF) the safest approach
is not to drink before driv-
ing or boating. If you are
going to drink ARF recom-
mends that you consume
ess than one drink per
hour to stay safely below
be.05% Blood alcohol Con-
centration (BAC). st
For example, a ale of
60 lbs. without food in the
tomach and of average
mriness, would only need
drink about two -and -a -
half standard drinks (one
and one-half oz. liquoror
fi
ve oz. table wine or 12 oz.
beer) in the first hour to
each .05% blood alcohol
concentration. That's the
alcohol level at which
police in Ontario can sus-
pend a driver's licence for
12 hours. A female of 120
nus. would only have to
drink about one -and -a -half
standard drinks per hour to
each the same concentra-
tion.

.Equestrian Festival
An exciting new
equestrian event at the
Woodbine Racetrack in
Rexdale promises to be a
highlight of summer '89.
The Equestrain Festival
at Woodbine. Aug. 9th to
13th. offers an ouutstanc ing
program of show jumping
competition that will at-
tract young pony club
'stars of the future' as
well as many of Canada's
top Olympic riders.
Organised by a group of
Toronto -area businesstnen,
the festival is designed to
attract :Metro families with
lots of activity. good food,
and an outstanding. ac-
cessible location.
Woodbine Racetrack,
long heralded as the home
of thoroughbred horse rac-
ing in Canada, is the site of
the country's most
prestigious racing events.
including the Queen's
Plate, the Rothmian's Inter-
national and the Molson
Millions.
This marks the fust time
the venue will play host to
an internationally
recognized show jumping
competition.
'AVID SOMERVIuE
Time to
Free Up
Health Care
Waiting lists for surgical and
diagnostic procedures have
gotten longer. services are being
rationed and medical costs are
rapidly increasing.
The signs are unmistakable:
Canada's health care system is
seriously ill.
Some contend that the proper
cure is for governments to spend
more money on health care.
Others favour capping doctors'
foes or putting them on salaries.
Both these solutions, how-
ever, have serious drawbacks.
Governments have been increas-
ing health care spending for
years but demand for medical
services continues to out pace
supply. No matter how much is
spent, it is never enough. The
second option, while politically
attractive, would succeed only in
driving some of Canada's best
doctors out of the country and
others into a work -to -rule
protest.
Fortunately, other options do
exist. In fact, three simple
reforms, if introduced, would
help to improve Canada's health
care system without raising taxes
or angering doctors.
First, the government should
de -criminalize private basic
health insurance and allow the
establishment of private
hospitals. The resulting
competition would bring about a
drop in costs and increase the
overall quality of health care.
Canada is the only country in the
western world that outlaws
basic, private medical insurance.
Some contend that if private
medical insurance were allowed
it would create a two tier sva=:
one for the rich and one for the
poor. Canada already has a two
tier system, however. Those with
the necessary means are now
flying to the United States to pay
for the kind of treatment they
want in cash. The rest of
Canadians have no option but to
put up with long waiting lists and
rationing.
The second reform would be
to make the waiting lists for sur-
gical and diagnostic procedures
public. These lists should then be
monitored by an independent
third party. Anyone who wants
to jump the queue should have to
justify it medically. This reform
would prevent those with power
and influence from forcing their
way to the head of the line and
might just focus our politicians'
minds on the need for health care
reforms.
Third. Canada's health care
system would benefit if the
government contracted out the
management of public hospitals.
Experience shows that this
measure improves medical care
and makes it far more effective.
Canada's health care system
may be sick, but it can still be
saved. All it needs is a good dose
of competition.
(David Somerville as president of
The Notional Citizens' Coalition.)

ing 2D or more workers, in-
cluding offices and retail
establishments. The Board
seriously questions the
need for such committees
or time-consuming
meetings in small
businesses.
Certified employee
representatives on such
committees are given the
authority to issue direc-
tions to stop work. Abuse is
clearly possible in the con-
text of union negotiations
or when a certified
employee is subject to
ivy peer pressure. These
situations cannot be avoid-
ed and will lead to un-
necessary
stopspect pages -
an
employer effectively stopp-
ing such events by
threatening to seek decer-
tification before a joint
body is low. Indeed, it is not
far-fetched to suggest that
employees could violate
their collective ants
by conducting "safety"
strikes.
Comments Regarding Bio
IV- An Act to Amend the
Workers' Compensation
Act.
Bin 162 proposes substan-
tial amerdrnents to the
compensation system for
workers who are per-
mantrntly impaired as a
result of work-related in-
juries. The Board recorn-
mends a number of
changes to the amended
Bill relating to the alter-
nate dispute resolution pro-
cesses, re-employment
obligations and appeals,
and the non -economic loss
and pension supplement
provisions.
Pearson Airport's Damag-
ing Impact on Business
On May 26, 1989 The
Board sent a letter asking
members to write directly
to The Board on their ex-
periences and problems at
Pearson Airport.
The vast majority of the
responses were in support
of stated Board policies
and contained two recurr-
ing themes; first, that con-
ditions at Pearson
discourage business
meetings in Toronto and
detract from Toronto's
reputation as a world class
city, and secondly, that, in
an era of free trade, Toron-
to must be competitive.
Comments Supporting the
Retention of Buttonville
Airport
In a letter to the Federal
Minister of Transport, The
Board urges the retention
of the Buttonville Airport.

key role in the airport
system of Southern Ontario

1989 Ontario Post -Budget
Submission
The Board acknowledges
that significant strides
have been made in deficit
reduction in the 1989 On-
tario Budget, but only at
the price of significant tax
increases and following
seven years of uninter-
rupted economic growth.
In particular, the propos-
ed Commercial Concentra-
tion Levy and Employee
Health Levy have serious
ramifications for the com-
petitiveness of Ontario
businesses and should not
be implemented as
presently conceived, The
Board warns. Neither levy
will have a fair application
and both may be turned in-
to "cash cows" for the Pro-
vincial treasury as the levy
rate is increased in future
yem-
The Board also expresses
concern over the potential
high cost and stapectibility
to abuse of subsidy pro-
grams to support the ex-
pansion of "threshold"
companies in Ontario. as
have been recommended
by the Premier's Council.
The Board otherwise ex-
presses support for the
Budget's initiatives in the
areas of education, retrain-
ing, literacy, social
assistance reform,
transportation im-
provements and public sec-
tor pension reform.
Response to the Ontario
Transportation Capital
Program
In response to the recent-
ly announced tit billion
Transportation capital
Program for the province,
the Board, while generally
supportive of the need for
more money to be spent on
transportation infrastruc-
ture, expresses concern
that not enough monies
were being allocated to
where the congestion pro-
blem is most severe, the
downtown core of Metro
Toronto. In addition, The
Board recommends that
spending under the Capital
Program be in addition to
the regular capital spen-
ding of the Ministry. The
Transportation Committee
will monitor the implemen-
tation of this Program to
ensure results promised by
the Ministry.
1989 Federal Post -Budget
Submission
While The Board ex-
presses support for the
move toward better
targeting of social benefits
such as the family
allowance and old age
security pensions, it ex-
presses concern over the
disproportionate focus on
foreign aid and defence for
expenditure cutbacks. The
Board also expresses
dismay at the continuing
dependence of the govern-
ment on tax increases
rather than expenditure
reductions to control the
deficit, a situation which
can only have negative con-
sequences for com-
petitiveness of Canadian
industry.
On tax matters, The
Board recommends the
following: The Federal
Sales Tax increase be
deferred, the Goods and
Services Tax be im-
ple ie rated rapidly. the new
Large Corporations Tax be
repealed. and that the in -
other countries including
the United Kingdom and

comes of married couples
be aggregated in the deter-
mination of the family
allowance and old age pen-
sion clawbacks.
The Board also presents
some recommendations for
improving the budget pro-
cess which would eliminate
the perceived necessity for
budget secrecy.

Agricultural Holiday
Summer's here and the
great outdoors has plenty
to offer everyone. Don't let
hectic city life stop you
from enjoying nature to its
fullest.
There's plenty of time to
plan an agricultural theme
holiday or getaway. The
many options available in-
clude fairs, farm vaca-
tions, the Ontario
Agricultural Museum or an
afternoon of fruit picking at
one of Ontario's many pick -
your -own farms.
Ontario's 230
agricultural fairs are an
excellent opportunity to ex-
perience the excitement of
agriculture. The majority
of the fairs are held from
mid-August to mid-October
and vary in length from one
day for smaller faits. to 20
days for the Canadian Na-
tional Exhibition.
Livestock showing and
judging, crafts, local and
professional entertainment
are some of the events that
complement the unique
nature of each fair.
Farm Vacations
Those with more than a
day or two to invest out-
doors might consider one of
Ontario's vacation farms_
Whether you want to ex-
pand you' horizons, meet
new friends or share a dif-
ferent lifestyle, the host
families of the Ontario
Vacation Farm Association
t OVFA 1 will be more than
happy to welcome you.
Dairy, livestock and self-
sufficieat farms offer a
wide range of possibilities
for enthusiasts, and a farm
vacation can add an exotic
twist to familiar surroun-
dings.
Ontario Agricultural
Munettm
The Ontario Agricultural
Museum, celebrating its
10th anniversary this year.
has served 400,000 visitors
since its gates were first
opened to the public.
With over 30 buildings
and displays depicting the
evolution of agriculture in
Ontario. the museum offers
visitors a chance to ex-
penernce and learn about
rural life. It is both far
removed from and accessi-
ble to the city. T be museum
offers the perfect oppor-
tunity to "get away from it
all", for a day or an after-
noon.
Pick -Your -Own Farms and
Farmers' Markets
The final stop on the
agricultural outings agen-
da begins with Ontario's
large selection of pick -
your -own farms. With 330
such fames in the province,
people from any area
should be able to find a
crop to suit their tastes.
From beans to zucchini,
and apples to strawberries,
pick -your -own farms are a
fun, inexpensive outing for
any family.

The fourth running of the
Molson Indy at T(ironto's
Exhibition Stadium finally
saw Michael Andretti as
the winner in last
weekend's race.
Going into that race the
26 year old driver had led
eight out of nine races this
season yet won none of
them. in this Molson Indy,
he qualified his Newman
Haas Racing
KmartlHavoline Lola
T13900 race car in 5th place.
Setting a blistering pace
In the qualifying was
Brazil's Emerson Fit-
tipaldi who had three lap
records, the fastest be'a
sub one minute 59.499

1.78 mile temporary road
circuit was 107.699 m

Marlboro -sponsored Pen-
ske PC -18 in the qualifying
were Al Unser, Jr., Danny
Sullivan, now obviously
recovered from his broken
arm. and Bobby Rahal. the
winner of the fust event at
the Toronto track.
At race start, Mttipaldi
sped to the front, closely
followed by Sullivan. Early
in the contest Roberto
Guerrero, driving the
Alpha -Romeo powered
March 89C, had to park his
car on Lakeshore
Boulevard near Turn 3 with
a loss of power.
Fortunately, Guerrero
got out of his car onto the
rackside because as
Mario Andretti, Michael's
father and teammate was
attempting toPorsche
Motorsport's Teo Fabi at
tth�artkespot he impacted the
ar heily.
When cMario returned to
theis after his crash he
sai?"I knew the car (of
Guerrero) was there for
two or three laps, but
because there was no
steady [lea at that
time, I thought it bad been
removed. As I pulled to the
right to pass Fabi, I saw
the car at the last instant. I
had no time to miss it."
Luckily Mario was unhurt
but his �Io. 5 Newman Haas
Lola was stns of its
right side and -the Alpha
Romeo had extensive
damage to its left.
With two laps togo, the
youngger Andretti Leda clos-
ing FSttipaldi towards the
hairpin at Turn 3. But
enteiring that corner, Fit-
tipaldied to pass on the
right only to see Michael
turn into him. The impact
sent Emerson into the wall
and he skidded into the
runoff area, yet kept the
engine running and manag-
ed to finish 2M. Sullivan
came in a distant 3rd, one

Mackenzie Financial Lola
TNIM in 14th place, only to
have the Hemelgam crew
make an error in the fuel
consumvdon at one-third
race distance. He ran out of
fuel on lap 39.
I could have stayed in
the top 10," said Goodyear.
"In fact I was con-
templating getti into the
top five. I wanted to pit for
fuel and fresh tires, then go
from there."
Ludwig Heimrath Jr.,
Goodyear's teammate,
originally from Scar-
borough but now living in
Spanaway, Washington
was running 14th overall
when the engine on his Lola
T89001et go on the 48th lap

WEEK
from Ottawa
w,th Rene Soetens, M.P.
In last week's article, I discussed some of the events that
I have had the opportunity to attend in Ontario riding over
the post month. This week, I would like to continue with this
theme.
Ground breakings. and opening ceremonies often keep me
occupied in Ontario Riding. East Hamptons Condominiums
held their official ground breaking party on June 4th. This
low rise condominium, will be located in Ajax on Beautiful
Lake Ontario. It is always a pleasure to lend a shovel.
On Tues. Julie 6th, i had the pleasure of attending the
opening ceremonies of David Brown Gear Industries Inc. of
Pickering. 1 believe that this new plant exemplifies the
positive effect that Free Trade is having on Canada.
On June 9th, Sandoz Canada officially celebrated the
opening of their newly expanded quality assurance and pro-
duction facilities in Whitby. Sandoz has underlined Bill
C-22, this government's drug patent legislation. as being a
positive influence on their decision to expand. It was indeed
enjoyable attending these ceremonies in which government
policy played a direct role in enhancing the Ontario Riding
economy.
The official opening of the Wood Farm Mawr in Whitby,
took place on Fri. June 23rd. The Durham Regan Non -
Profit dousing Corporation sponsored this excellent effort
to provide affordable housing for families. I attended the
ceremony and extended congratulations to both Canada

Report
from Noah Stoner
MPP Durham West
Changes to the Ontario Farm Tax Rebate Program for
1999 were recently announced by the Minister of
Agriculture, the Hon. Jack Riddell.
As in the past, the program will be targeted to property
owners whose gross farm production income was at least
85,000 in Northern and Eastern Ontario and 88,000 in other
parts of the province. The Minister has said that the farm
tax rebate program is alive and well with the amount
available up to 8140 million in 1989, compared to less than
$100 million in 1985 at the time when the administration of
this province changed. Modifications to be made in 1999 will
target those whose main occupation is farming.
Rebates will be paid only on properties which are farmed,
at least in part, by the owner. The rebate will be reduced by
five percent for every $1,000 of owner's off -farm income in
excess of $40,000 when there is only one property owner or
860,000 when there are two or more property owners. An in-
terim payment will not be made in 1999. Instead of two
payments, there will be a single payment in the fall.
Existing gross production value criteria still apply. Gross
production value is defined as total farm sales plus or
minus changes in inventory, minus the cost of purchased
feed or livestock.
Retired farmers and their spouses, spouses of deceased
farmers, individuals who have been required to reduce pro-
duction due to illness and farmers who rent farm parcels to
their own farm operations will. be eligible to receive
benefits under the program.
"We have taken into consideration these special
categories of people who have dedicated their lives to the
agricultural industry in Ontario. Their contribution to the
industry has been significant and the program continues to
reflect this," Riddell said.
Applications and brochures will be mailed to all potential-
ly eligible property owners in mid-September, 1989.
Local Update: A new booklet is now available for our con-
stituency office from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food.
Called Agricultural Faros and Exhibitions 1989 this booklet
provides information on dates and the locations of
Agricultural faits and exhibabo s in Ontario. Also available
is a booklet from the !Ministry of Natural Resources with in-
formation regarding Ontario's Provincial Parks. Booklets
are available from the constituency office.

for their fir>ancud assistance in tins wortbwhile effort.
Haug Industries Limited of Ajax held a reception on June
23rd. for the Mayor of Weirton, West Virginia and Gus
Suokas, Director of Econonuc and Community Develop-
ment.
On June Idth, we cooked up a storm at the Rotary Pan-
cake Breakfast. My motto has always been, have spatula
will travel.
I hope that everyone who participated in the Vox Pop
Forums found there as informative and thought provoking
as I did. The last installment of my Vox Pop Forum before
the summer. took place on June 23rd, at the Whitby Public
Library. The issues of the day were covered and some ex-
cellent discussion was achieved, although a little less vocal
than the previous debate on the budget.
Canada Day certainly proved to be a busy time. on July
1st, I participated in the annual Pickering Pride festival.
The people of Pickering amaze me every year by outdoing
the previous year's celebration.
The Canada Day celebrations in Ottawa were no match
for the festivities that tool[ place at my constituency office
in Ajax. There were lots of balloons for the kids and holdings
and pop for everybody. 1 would like to thank the 800 plus
people who participated in the July 1st revelry in Ontario
Riding. I hope to see you next year.
