Letter To Go To Law
Reform Commiiasim
The board will submit a
letter to the Law Reform
Commission objecting to
the proposed changes to the
criminal code regarding
Corporal punishment. The
current law exempts
parents, guardians and
teachers, whereas the
reform would not include
teachers on the list of those
protected from liability. It
was felt that teachers must
not feel hampered in
touching children for the
puaoose of nurturing and
showing care for the
youngsters.
Architects Appointed
Lennis Trotter was ap-
pointed by the board as ar-
chitect for the General Pur-
pose Room addition at Dr.
Robert Thornton PS. The
work will be done during
the 1990 summer month.
Millet Salter was ap-
pointed to design a pro-
totype school for the un-
named Attersley t Oshawa I
and Uxbridge elementary
schools. The current
designs do not meet the
need for Jr. Kindergarten
and daycare facilities
which will be required.
Allen and Sherriff were
appointed to design the un-
named Hermitage Com-
munity School to be built in
Ajax.

that developed this sum-
mer over the Ministry's
refusal to approve con-
struction of a school by

Goods & Sendc:es Tax To
Hit Electricity Users
Taxing electricity will cost Ontario's electricity con-
sumers an additional two-thirds of a billion dollars a year,
says the Municipal Electric Association (M.E.A-), a group
representing Ontario's 316 municipal electric utilities. The
group has asked the federal government to exclude elec-
tricity from the proposed Goods and Services Tax (GST).
In a brief submitted to the Standing Committee on
Finance and Economic Affairs, M.E.A. Chairman Carl
Anderson urged government to recognize that few goods
and services will carry as heavy a tax burden as electricity.
Even with the introduction of the GST, the elimination of
existing taxes for such goods and services as automobiles,
furniture and telecommunications will result in a net tax
cut of almost one per cent. But electricity will experience a
net increase in taxation of approximately 8 per cent. The
difference in tax burden between these commodities could
be as much as 9 per cent, with the electricity industry being
one of the most severely affected by the GST.
Electricity has been exempted from federal taxation
since the introduction of the manufacturer's sales tax in the
early part of this century. Taxing it could affect the pro -
vine's current high standard of living.
"By continuing to provide for exemption, it seems clear
that every federal government for the past 65 years has
recognized the importance of electricity in the everyday
lives of Canadians, as well as in the industrial section. and
has seen fit to maintain a negligible level of taxation," said
Mr. Anderson.
Mr. Anderson further warned that taxation at the federal
level could set the stage for taxation by the provinces. "The
M.E.A. is also concerned that the provinces will take the
federal government position of taxing electricity as a
precedent—a dangerous one, in the M.E.A.'s view," noted
the Chairman.
In his submissions. Chairman Anderson urged govern-
ment to follow the lead of other cou ntnes that have produc-
ed special relief for electricity. Ireland zero -rates electrici-
ty with no strings attached. Other countries, such as the
United Kingdom. Norway and Sweden recognize that elec-
tricity is a special supply and afford it special treatment.
Canada should follow suit. said Chairman Anderson.
For over 75 years, the !Municipal Electric Association and
its hydro utility members have championed the public
Power cause to ensure Ontario's electricity consumers
receive reliable, low cost electricity. M.E.A. members pro-
vide electricity to over 70 per cent of Ontario's electricity
consumers.

Car Costs Driving Up
It now costs the average Canadian more than $100 a week
to own an automobile, according to the 3 million member
Canadian Automobile Association ( CAA), which has releas-
ed its CAA Car Costs 1969-90 brochure.
"Car Costs" data reveals that it costs the average Cana-
dian motorists $5,968 per year or almost $115 per week to
operate their automobile. Even those driving a sub-
compact in a low-cost province can expect to pay $5,250 an-
nual or just under $101 weekly to run their car.
STATFACTS
Car travel accounted for 57 billion kilometres of the 81
billion kilometre total. Some 20 billion kilometres (25%)
were covered by air. Other means, including buses, trains
and boats, accounted for the remaining 4 billion kilometres
(5%).

My Special Dream
Far above my rainbow,
There is a dream for me.
A dream that no one else
Could know, hear about or see.
This dream is very private
For me to tell to you.
I can't say a word about it
Or even give a clue.
Beyond that beautiful rainbow,
That curves up in the sky,
Bring memories and happy thoughts.
That start to make me cry.
This dream is so wonderful.
It's such a big secret.
And if I do tell you,
This dream I'll never get.
When I look at the colours
'noughts come in my mind.
Thoughts that are so hidden,
Only I'm able to find.
So don't you even try
To break into my dream.
For it is rot easy,
As easy as it may seem -

why The Secrecy?
Dear Editor:
Re: The French Language Services Act of Ontario
NEVER was there a more damaging Bill legislated against
the people of Ontario. ( Millions spent and the true extent of
designated areas NOT revealed).
NEVER was a Bill passed in Ontario with such secrecy and
deceit!
NEVER was there a greater need for information to be
made available to the public!
NEVER has an Ontario Bill been more discriminating
against English-speaking people.
NEVER did the people of Ontario give Mr. Peterson a man-
date to proceed with this legislation. He has forgotten that
"the right to govern is derived from the governed".
NEVER was there a greater need for a legislated Bill to be
rescinded!
Bill 8, The French language Services Act was -
- passed on November 18, 1996 with 70 to 125 members
absent! WHY?
passed in French in the Legislature.
recorded in French in the Hansard Report (the public
record) - for the 95% English-speaking residents of On-
tario? WHY THE SECRECY?
- miniscule media coverage. If this Bill is such fair and
equitable legislation, why were the details not made
public? At least 93% of the population of Ontario is already
included in designated areas. ex. Toronto, with a 1.2%
Francophone population is a designated area. To quote Bob
Runciman, MPP Leeds -Grenville, "there was no mean-
ngful debate, no reference to a Standing Committee to take
a look at what the implications of the legislation meant to
t intario and no recorded vote". "I think there has been too
much effort and attempt by this Government to cover up
this issue, to have meaningful public discussion about what
is happening in terms of language services in this Province,
the cost implications, social implications, etc. This is
another effort to further that program of concealment".
To again quote Mr. Runciman, - the wholesale extension
of French language services m Ontario represents a "hor-
rendous waste of tax dollars". whose passage in 1986 mark-
ed one of "the blackest days" in the history of the
Legislature".
Send for particulars of Bill 8. Our future is at stake! Con-
tact Box 22109, Barrie, Ontario LAM 5R3.
Yours truly.

Want City
Manager

Scarborough Council has
decided to hire a chief ad-

oversee the city's operation
but it does not plan to give
the person that title.
Instead, the CAO will be

States. In Canada, chief ad-
ministrative officer is
more common. However,
the city of Mississauga has
a city manager.
A consultant hired by the

mended that the title be

Scarborough has found a
temporary site for its leaf
composting.
The three acre site is on
city -owned land at
Skagway Rd. and Mc-
Cowan Rd. just south of
Eglinton Ave. E. However,
the province must still ap-
prove it for composting.
Council last week asked
Metro Toronto to support
Scarborough's application
to the province for the
Skagway location.
It will cost the city some
$20,000 to prepare the pro-
perty for composting.

Bill Watt's Worlds
ON STAGE:
It doesn't matter who -we
can't recall in any case -but
someone once wrote "he
sprang to his horse and
galloped off in all direc-
tions. It was and still is in-
tended as a reference to
one of undeniable talent
who has not yet channelled
ft.
We thought of it muchly
while watching Sky
Gilbert's play The Whore's
Revenge presented by Bud-
dies in Bad Times Theatre
at Tarragon Extra Space.
Director Edward Roy's
notes in the program state
that The Whore's Revenge
is a combination of
Melodrama and Grand
Guignol. That might be so
but it seems to us that in
trying to be a bit of both, it
ends up being neither.
Simply stated W.'s R. is
the story in flashback of
Desiree LaChance's des-
cent into whoredom after
having been driven from
her postion as house maid
in his home by the dour Dr.
Dambridge who has
discovered her in an in -
completed coupling with a
swollen membered
chimney sweep.
We give away nothing
when we recount that Dr.
Dambridge turns out to be
not only Jack the Ripper
but also, in a stupendous
anachronism. her brother
from whom she had been
surgically separated at
birth: thus explaining his
abhorrence of the sexual
act and her enlarged
clitoris.
Hoo boy!
Yet. there is, and quite
apart from the talent of the
player's, much of merit in
the play. Mr. Gilbert's pro-
se has a fine, properly Vic-
torian ring to it and his
observations on and of
human frailty have the ring
of authenticity adulterated
only mildly by the fact that
they are second hand. An
interesting example of
familiarity not necessarily
breeding contempt, cer-
tainty not boredom.
As a production W.'s R.
has much to recommend it
including reasonable ap-
proximations of Victorian
clothing and a fine musical
score by Phyllis Cohen
thought we still rail at the
use of music on the
legitimate stage.
Mr. Roy directs well and
holds his cast well in check,
not allowing the excesses
all too frequently ex-
perienced in alternative
theatre. The cast itself is
an excellent one.
Kate Sykes is Desiree
LaChance. She is stunning-
ly beautiful whether as the
fresh faced, newly arrived
and reasonably innocent
from Newcastle or a
diseased harridan of the
street. Her accent is consis-
tent. we make the point
because she is able to pro-
ject fine emotional impact
even hampered with such a
dreadful accent.
Sky Gilbert plays Dr.
Dambridge in a manner,
deliberate or otherwise,
reminiscent of the late
Laird Gregar. His voice is
sonorous and menacing.
his presence, suitably
creepy. Excessive facial
expressions are due simply

to the fact that the play is
presented in the round; on
a conventional stage, they
would not be a considera-
tion.
Debra Mrshenbaum is
essence of a proper Vic-
torian wife and Christopher
Cumyn effectively presents
a young gentleman at-
tracted by the whore in a
manner more than simply
carnal. Mind you, the
character has its own lanky
side, too.
Director Roy doubles in
brass in the role of the
chimney sweep and does
well as does Susan Mc-
Cleigh as a mysterious
statue of purity who comes
alive to .. well, you'd better
see the play for yourself.
For those who might be
unaware, Tarragon
Theatre is at 30 Bridman
Ave. in the Dupont -
Bathurst area and is easily
accessible by public tran-
sit.
We recommend a visit to
The Whore's Revenge.
You'll experience a good
production and be aware of
a writer of whom we con-
fidently expect to bear
more.
ON SCREEN:
Among the many
pleasures we miss in T.O.
are good lounge pianists.
Time was when virtually
every club had one;
Bassel's Club, Club One
Two, The Pilot. The Silver
Rail, The Sky Lounge and
on and on.
We enjoyed them and
miss them. Now we content
ourself with almost worn
out LP.s of Jose MElis, Bill
Butler. Frank Bogart et al.
One realizes then why we
looked forward to The
Fabulous Baker Boys (20th
Century Fox) about two
brothers making a not un-
comfortable living as
Longe twin pianists. Well,
we enjoyed it but not as
much as might have been
had the music been central
rather than subordinate.
Beau and Jeff Bridges -
real life brothers and the
sons of Loyd Bridges are
the pianists. Beau is the
elder, a now cherubic type
who loves "show
business"; Jeff, the
younger who hates S.B. but
loves the piano.
After almost two decades
of performing professional-
ly, their bookings are
becoming sparse. In the
realization that something
is needed to spark up the
act, it's decided that a
singer should be added.
Enter then, Michelle
Pfeiffer who can't sing
worth a damn -It's her voice
you hear on the sound track
though it's not the playing
of the B. boys -and the act
seems to come to life.
Michelle Pfeiffer, a
bubble -headed, gum chew-
ing slut, becomes a lady;
the younger brother suc-
cumbs to her attraction;
the older brother nearly
has his fingers broken in a
brawl with him; the act is
broken up; the elder
becomes a teacher, the
younger starts to play for
his soul; the slut and the
younger just might make
out again.
That's it, that's the plot,
the time worn story of art
versus industry; aspiration
versus vindication.
Is it a good movie? Not
really. Is it a bad one? Not
really. At best, it's an
agreeable time waster; at
worst, a waste of talent.
Beau Bridges as the
older Baker utilizes his now
finely tuned reaction shots
to perfection, Jeff is
suitably saturnine and
Miss Pfeiffer is a stunning
figure as Suzie Diamond,
the "Chantoosie". Here is
the real waste.
The young lady, who was
aced out of a deserved
Academy Award for her
role in Dangerous Liaisons,
is squandered in a part that
could have and might have
been phoned in.
Yet, the picture is not
without merit. Old crocks
like yours truly will truly
enjoy the playing of Dave
Grusin and John Hammond
on the dubbed sand track.
Now join us please at our
player piano as we pretend
to be Bobby Short.
STILL ON SCREEN:
We had to miss the press
screening but are told that
When the Whales Came is a
winner. It is scheduled to
open this Friday.
ON RECORD:
We had the opportunity
to attend the media
preview of Veronique at
Bertin recently and must
say that it should make it.
Veromque is Veromque
Beliveau aid she sings a la
mode with just a soupcon of
accent for spice.
This A. & M. album was
produced by Richard
Carpenter and he even
joins Miss Beliveau on
some of the trach.
I'm Gonna Make You
Love Me and Base of Love
will probably receive the
greatest amount of air play
but our favourite Cut is
Angel in My Eyes. The
lady's singing is
pleasurable of course but
the real kick for us is the
arrangement. fasten for
the almost subliminal
Good album.
How about this title for
the latest from the Aussie
rockers Painters &
Dockers? It's Kiss My Art.
Oh my, that's clever!
ON T.V.
Those who subscribe to
the Disney Channel, will
lamps have seen Looking
For Miracles which was
shown this past summer.
It's appearing this Sun-
day at 7 p.m. on CBC -TV.
and we recommend this
coming of aIle story by
A. E. Hotchner. It has to be
better than Kiss My Art.
TRIBUTE:
To be honest, we always
felt that the late Director
John Hirsch was rather
much given to excess in his
direction. Whether or not
that is so is not relevant.
What is important is the
major contribution he
made to the latter day
cause of theatre in Canada.
This Sunday at 8:30 p.m.
in the Bluma Appel
Theatre a group of Mr.
Hirsch's friends and col-
leagues from across North
America are gathering to
present an evening of
festive theatre presenting
anecdotes and recollec-
tions expressed in words,
video and music.
Space will not permit the
inclusion of names of all
the artists who will appear
but you must believe us
when we tell you that they
are all well known and
talented.
Tickets are a modest $25,
arguably one of the best
dollar values of the season.

count on any rush seats.
You have been advised!
We intend to be writing
much about the upcoming
opening of the restored
Elgin and Winter Garden
Theatres. For now though,
we wish only to mention
that one of the opening pro-

original M.G.M. score. We
confidently expect it to be a
fine show and well nigh
perfect holiday entertain-
ment.
Ballantine I Del Rey are
now in the twelth printing
of the Oz books and we
have the first volume to
hand. It's a handsome little
soft cover that would make
a perfect stocking staffer

What's Club Med Like?
Check This Out
At the beach, by the
mountains, in the country,
at all four corners of the
world, wherever there's a
Club Med village, you can
be assured that it is Nesting
at the most gorgeous loca-
tion the country has to of-
fer.
However, beyond scenic
beauty, the village struc-
ture is also pure Chub Med,
easily recognizable and
known world wide.
All the pools, bars,
restaurants and terraces
are centrally situated to
promote the spirit of
recreation, giving way to a
friendly drink and hearty
conversation by those who
care tc share it. The
villages have been design-
ed for freedom of move-
ment and the enjoyment of
nature.
Accommodation in the
Caribbean. Bahamas,
Florida. Mexico and Tahiti
will be in the form of beach
and garden front lodging.
Charming villages of
detached. semi-detached
or maisonette -style beach
cottages. Mexican casias
or Polynesian farts are
designed to bend in with
the environment and local
architecture. Interspersed
among blossoming gardens
and forests of coconut
Palms bordering the beach,
most have beautiful views
of the sea or gardens.
Bright native colours,
delicious Mexican earth
tones, cheerful furnishings,
all come with private
bathroom offering shower
or bath.
In certain villages, like
Huatulco, you'll find
sliding partitions between
beds for greater privacy
among singles. At The
Sandpiper, designed like a
river -front "inn", you'll en-
joy a more standard
"hotel" room, with oversiz-
ed beds and sofa, mini
refrigerator, two safes in
each room, walk-in closet
and full bath.
Accommodations are
usually in double occupan-
cy rooms. But because a
large portion of the Club
Med clientele is made up of
singles, and as the Club
moves ahead with the
times. every effort is being
made to offer guests single
rooms.

Scary stuff, boys and
girls! But even if you don't
believe in traditional
Hallowe'en lore, the ex-
p its at St. John Am-
bulance warn that lots of
real danger lurks. Here's
how to make this
Hallowe'en safe for
everyone.
For Moms and Dads:
For Hallowe'en, make
wre kids can see and be
seen. Masks or any other
gear should allow your lit-
tle monster full vision.
Make sure that all your lit-
tle Slimers and Strawberry
Sbortcakes wear visible
costumes, preferably with
reflective patches. The
Costume should fit or else
your little batman may
have his wings clipped
when be trips over his
cape -
Don't let your toddlers
terrorize alone. Small
children should always be
accompanied by an adult.
Before you let your kids
go trick or treating, sit
them down and give them
these pointers:
- VvOt only the houses of
people you know. Make
sure you know where the
nearest block parent is or
where you can go in an
emergency-
- When crossing
the'
watch f
- Walk. Don't run.
- Bring a flashlight if you're
Planning to spook on an
unlit street.
- Finally, bring all your
goodies home. Don't eat
anything until someone
else has made sure it's
okay to eat.
For Everybody
Nobody escapes
Hallowe'en. If you're out in
your car, watch for little
goblins and witches that
dart out from between
parked cars. If you
welcome a visit from the
neighbourhood spooks,
make sure that your house
is well ht and free from
hazards.
A pumpkin in the window
will beckon the spirits, but
be careful not to place the
candle too close to the cur-
tains. And while the candle
is burning. someone should
keep an eye on the pucn-
pkin.
A Monster Bash
Instead of waiting for the
little monsters to come and
get you, why not invite
them in? Throw a
Hallowe'en neighbourhood
block party. It's a safe and
fun alternative to all out
trick or treating. Organize
games and give out prizes
for costumes. And be sure
that everyone brings lots of
candy. A neighbourhood
monster bash is
guaranteed to be a ghoul
time. Your only worry as a
parent will be the next trip
to the dentist!

Brown Bagging It And
... Bragging About It
Even worse than the ef-
fort it takes to pack lunches
every day, is the predic-
table boredom of operung
the same, dry, tasteless,
cardboard sandwiches and
the inevitable chocolate
chip cookie. School kids
and working women share
a dislike for the monotony
of lunch in a brown bag.
Even young. male ex-
ecutives have the same
problem. Have you ever
wondered what they carry
in their briefcases on the
subway'. Chances are, it's
lunch.
Business people who are
watching .heir weight face
a double dilemma: the
alternative to a bag of
uninteresting celery sticks
is probably the local fast
food, takout bar where
French fries and other
calorie -bulging items
assault the senses.
Weight Watchers has
helped solve this problem
for business people enroll-
ed in one of the many At

Report
Telemarketing Study Approved
Telephone solicitations have created public concerns
about the increase in telemarketing. Ontario Consumer
Minister Gregory Sorbara says Canadian households are
getting an average of three telephone solicitations weekly.
At a recent federal -provincial -territorial conference of
Consumer Ministers, Mr. Sorbara's proposal for the in-
vestigation of telemarketing issues was approved.
The study group will look at potential problems created
by the growing use of telephones, computers, televisions
and other electronic devices in the direct -marketing in -
The minister said that although telemarketing can pro-
vide convenience for some consumers and businesses,
some basic problems have been identified. Some of these
problems include:
-Information about sellers and their products or services
can be hard to obtain or verify.
-Complaints can be difficult or impossible to resolve.
-Some consumers consider unsolicited calls an invasion of
privacy. This concern has already prompted the Ontario
Government to put forward legislation outlawing phone
solicitations by companies selling funeral or cemetary ser-
vices.
-As telemarketers often sell outside their own countries,
legal recourse in disputes is severely limited. This is a mat-
ter of international concern.
-The speed at which transactions take place, using elec-
tronic funds transfers, credit cards, computerized order
systems and other innovations, adds further complications.
New technology that lets telephone users monitor the
numbers from which itncoaning calls originate, is also ex-
pected to cause concerns. Despite the fact that it will allow
consumers to be able to screen their calls. the technology
makes individuals' numbers known to companies they
phare. creating possible privacy concerns -
The Federal -Provincial -Territorial Working Group on
Telemarketing will be responsible for producing a detailed
report. analyzing these and other issues. Recommenda-
tions for changes in the law, as well as educational,
regulatory or voluntary ithdustry programs to address ex-
isting and potential problems will be included in the report
that will be presented at the next Consumer Ministers' Con-
ference in 1990.
