You just never know what will happen next. Well, that is what I'm here for. so here we go. Usually we end the col- umn with the sports, but I can't hold back this story any longer. Our senior and junior football teams came out on top last Sat. Nov. 4, winning the L.O.S.S.A. tournament for both ages. The seniors arenew Metro bowl material. Good Luck' Of course, the whole team is to be con- gratulated, but with kicks like the one Stewart Brin- dle made, some players can't go unmentioned. Also Paul Duncan won the most outstanding player award for the seniors and Cameron Lee for the juniors. I'm sure we will see more of this talent soon. Darren Hughes is another star this week placing 17th in a large Canadian Cross Country tournament in Halifax. Lastly, in sports this week our Trojan hockey team tied it up with a score of 2-2 against Dennis O'Connor.

Nov. 15, 1989 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Wells For PM? by Bob Watson Canadians listened last week to a new voice in the na- tional political scene and most felt that finally we were hearing a person who seemed to understand what govern- ment should be about. We refer to the premier of New- foundland and Labrador, Clyde Wells. His first asset is that he speaks bluntly and Canadians can understand him. He makes Premier Peterson look like a weak pawn in the political clutches of Brian Mulroney. And Mr. Wells suggests that a plebescite be held on the Meech Lake dispute - which most voters would shout a hearty agreement. Let's face it. We have a prime minister who apparently doesn't care what we Canadians think and who states that regardless of criticism he is going to give Quebec "distinct status" as well as the right to decide on immigration to Quebec. In other words Quebec will get more power than Ontario or any other province. Finance Minister Michael Wilson is stubbornly reacting against all the voices against the proposed 9% GST and can't seem to grasp the point that this tax is going to create unnecessary unemployment and present tremendous extra costs to small businesses - the backbone of economic development' Mr. Wilson asks if anyone has a better sug- gestion. That's easy - leave the 13.5% sales tax at the manufacturing level and merely exempt the tax for sales outside the country. This solves the problem of our exports being taxed before they leave Canada. But Mr. Wilson is very stubborn and is after more tax money to pay for the waste in government for which he can find an answer. He apparently hasn't heard of slashing wasteful expenses. For a PM with common sense let's elect Clyde Wells, The Distinct Society Dear Editor This phrase ..distinct society", while it may start in- nocently enough could it eventually translate to mean privileged society'. Is the privileged white society an exam- ple in the extreme of what a distinct society may degenerate to as in South Africa for example. Can Canadians adjudicate Quebec's grievances without such exposure' We now know that even in marriages nature has contributed toa natural distinction between men and women yet men have been able to abase natural parternships and women generally. Distinction is not in a name, it is in the resolution of duality. Even an amicable dissolution of partnership would be tragic to both parties. In the not too distant future. with global structuring. our pre- sent differences will become petty. However, in the wrong scenario it is wrong to say as some are saying that our com- munication with Western Canada and the Prairie Provinces would have less of a chance through Quebec than they would through the United States, our trade would go on na- tionally or internationally. With Mr. Mulroney's Trade Off what will be the difference' t Err that should read Trade - Free -Trade) we have already been Americanized. Just think without Quebec- we may never re-elect Brian Mulroney again' Our Prime Minister is now determined to have the Meech Lake Accord agreed to by all Canadian Provinces. Mr. Mulroney's words "the accord may not be perfect but can be corrected or amended to in succeeding conferences". The first criteria of good business practice most Canadians should adhere to is "We don't sign any contract that is vague It is not too much to ask of people of good intent. If Quebec fails to write in limitations and their meaning of distinct society. any succeeding attempt to define this meaning puts the rest of Canadians in the defensive position -a far greater disadvantage than in the first instance. Similarily, anyone that would say he is agreeable to a meaningful) parallel accord with regard the Meech Lake Accord is only fooling himself if not others. A meaningful parallel agreement should have no less legal force than amendments to the original accord if sincerity makes signing possible. Yours truly.

Smith If federal Finance Minister Michael Wilson is to be trusted, the reason for the breakdown in talks between the government and provinces over a federal:' provincial combined saks tax system was a refusal by the provinces to come on board. At least that's what Wilson would have us believe. The real story, however, is just beginning to unfold. According to John Bulloch, president of the Canadian Fed- eration of Independent Busi- ncsa, federal officials continue to blame the provinces for fail- ing to reach an agreement when in fact Ottawa was responsible for the abrupt breakdown in talks- The result, says Bulloch, leaves Canada with the only two-tiered tax system in the world. He predicts that the seri- ously flawed GST will create an enormous paperburden night- mare for small businesses, espccially the 500,000 firms selling at the retail level that do not have the staff and facilities to handle two types of sales tax systems with different exemp- tions and rates. "There is no other country in the world that would have even attempted to implement such a complicated and regres- sive System," said Bulloch. In hew foundland, for exam- ple, the GST will give that province a combined tax mouth of nearly 22 per cert after the 11 per cent provincial Saks tax is applied on top of the 9 per cent federal GST. Tourism analysts say that all puts of Canada will suffer badly as additional expenses for accommodation. meats and entertainment will drive away Canadian and foreign tourists. When federal officials called their provincial counterparts to the negotiating table more than a year ago, the provinces assumed that the talks would be in good faith. Everyone agreed that the Federal Sales Tax (currently in place) had to go. However, with the Jan. 1, 1991 deadline looming over the heads of the federal finance depart- ment officials, representatives from Ottawa suddenly walked away from the table Last spring leaving many of their provincial counterparts bewildered and angry. "The message coming from every premier and treasurer is the same, " says Bulloch. "The provinces were all prepared to continue discussions with the federal government on a unified system. Several provinces, realizing the enormous com- plexities that would be caused by a federal "go -it -alone" approach, had even spent tens of thousands of dollars in hir- ing specialists to deal with their Here and There Recycling Week Nearly 200 municipalities and more than 80 newspapers throughout Ontario will be participating in Recycling Weds '89.

Nov. 15, 1989 Bill Watt's Worlds ON YOUR TOES: The stamp of new Ar- s tistic Director Reid Ander- r son is nt;w most definitely upon the National Ballet of Canada. This is our firm conclusion after attending the second in the present i cycle of ballet works presented by the company t at the O'Keefe. We mentioned in an earlier column the strong f work of the corps in Giselle. It is even more im- pressive in Le Bayadere, a t work almost evenly divided between individual and ensemble dancing. Our eyes could not detect a single waver in corps ex ecution and only the most minimal in the difficult ballet endeavour of uniform corps attitude while framing the prin- cipals. Well done corps and well done Mr. Anderson. Control was evident as well in the work of the prin- cipals. The enchanting Yoko Ichino dazzled as always but one was aware of restraint, of a deter - urination to present the trength of a company ather than simply the principals. Mr. Pennington has referred to her partner Mikko Nissinen as the Fly - ng Finn and he is correct. We would add, however, hat he might well be described as the Fine Finn, AD well tuned was his per- ormance in combination of flash and discipline. Other soloists were Mar- ine Lamy who probably should be a First Soloist, Gizella Witkowski and Kimberly Glassco who are both Principals. Of course they danced well but one was aware again that the work was to be the all. Guest Conductor Jonathan McPhee also rallied around the apparent banner of Mr. Anderson and conducted the lush Lanchberry arrangement A the Minkus score with a smooth but firm hand, maybe even a mailed fist. in i velvet glove.

We overheard an au- dience member suggest that the second work, Glen Tetley's La Ronde is a degrading of the arts. We choose to think of it as an extension of the emotional power of a well drilled com- pany. Its theme is by now well known; that of a circle of copulations, some spiritual, some carnal, en- ding with the prostitute who started it. Sort of a Ku Klux Kopulation. Greek scholars and students of history will know what is meant. The Erich Korngold score (ves, the same man who wrote the theme for Sea Hawk later "borrowed" by John Williams in Star Wars) is achingly beautiful and adds credence to the con- cept that not all the par- ticipants are simply seek- ing animal release. It is a largish cast and in- dividual excellence is most difficult to single out. Jen- nifer Fournier as the pro- stittste was all merchan- disable passion, Kim Lightbeart as the Sweet Yang Thing was precisely that. Gizella Witkowsky and Frank Augustyn sizzl- ed the stage as the actress and the count and Rex Har- rington. of all people, was properly swinish as the Yong Gentleman having his way -hers too -with the Parlourmaid. Throughout it all, through all the lyrical pas- sion and impassioned lust, control -company control - was much in evidence. The final work of the evening was Dream Dance. a company premiere of Jiri Kylian's more or less new world dancing exhibit and was largely forgettable. Reminiscent of Copland's Appalachian Suite, the dances were little more than what one sees nowadays in aerobics classes. That is not to say it is bad but rather, uninteresting and possibly even uninspired. In passing. however, one must once again mention Jeremy Ransom and his ability to make even the most ordinary of dance steps into something almost transcending art itself. A remarkable young dancer. And under the firm direc- tion of Reid Anderson the National is once again on the road to being the most remarkable of companies. The final work to be presented is Napoli with special appearances by Peter Schaufuss. Good stuff SWEET do HOT: That seems a good way to describe two interesting musicals just opening in our town.

Win- ner of four awards on Broadway, it is a duet of one act musicals, each with a different story line. Act one is the story of a man about town and a courtesan in turn of the century Vienna. We war- rant it'll schmeck as good as the fine Stage West buf- fet. Act Two is the story of a man and a woman, each married to someone else, sharing a platonic friend- ship that turns to love. Barry Williams will reprise his Broadway role. That name might not be immediately familiar but perhaps readers will recall him as the eldest son on The Brady Bunch other- wise known as With Six You Get Egg Roll. Opening tomorrow at the St. LawTence Centre ( it's been in preview since Nov. 13th) is the return of Fire, a rock and gospel musical said to have been inspired by the lives of raisins Jerry Lee Lewis and Jinn - my Swaggart. Hell, why not throw in the third cousin Mickey Gilley and call it The Three Stooges Sell Out? Kidding aside, it pro - muses to be an entertaining evening. Worth particular mention is the inclusion in the cast of Danny Doherty of The Mamas and the Papas whom one presumes has removed the San Fran- cisco flowers from his hair. BARG DONS: There is to be an in- teresting fund raiser for the Elgin and Winter Garden Theatres this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It'll be held in the restored lobby ( just across from the Eaton Centre) and free coffee will be sup- plied. The event is called Marquee Magic. Available for nominal of- ferings of $5 each are mar- quee letters from the 40s and 50s. Apart from possi- ble historical interest, these letters are great for corporate logos. cottages or simply to personalize your Mme decor. There will be baked goods and other fine gift selections as well but the Idea of having marquee let- ters from the past is just super. HO 110 DA DA: The annual Toronto San- ta Claus Parade will be held this Sunday. Of notable interest is the fact that for the fust time it is to be shown in the Soviet Union. One supposes there is no difficulty with the colour red on Soviet T.V. ON RECORD: Before being overwhelm- ed by Christmas records allow us to commend to your attention and custom Mel Tormd In Concert in Tokyo (Concord Jazz). It's a live recording from the Jujitsu -Concord Jazz Festival in Japan in 1988. The sounu is crisp and clear but even if it were not, this would still be a fine album for those who appreciate impeccable musicianship. Mel TormC love him or hate him, has the truest voice of any popular vocalist of the last three decades and that includes Kenny Gardiner and John Historic Houses Decorated For Christmas A delightful 20th century Christmas tradition for many Torontonians is a step back in time at Mackenzie House, Col- borne Lodge and Spadina for special 19th century Christmas celebrations. These historic houses, operated by the Toronto Historical Board, will be decorated for an old- fashioned Christmas. Guid- ed tours will focus on the traditions of Christmas past and will also include a cup of hot mulled cider and a tasty treat of holiday bak- ing. Mackenzie House, 82 Bond St.. is located just two blocks east of the Eaton Centre. It's a wonderful spot for a break from Christmas shopping to en- joy Victorian Christmas celebrations at the home of William Lyon Mackenzie, Toronto's first mayor. Featured in the mid -19th century parlour will be a kissing bough - a sphere of evergreens decorated with candles which is the forerunner of today's Christmas tree. Cedar rop- ing with red ribbons. the dining room table set with Christmas desserts and the aroma of hot mulled cider will complete the festive picture. Colborne Lodge, located at the south entrance to pic- turesque High Park, hosts a Dickens Christmas. John George Howard's 1837 Regency style cottage has a Christmas tree in the parlour decorated with homemade cornucopia, miniature toys, colourful paper chains, and popcorn and cranberries. The din- ing room is prepared for a holiday tea, and the aroma of mulled cider fills the historic kitchen. Spadina, 285 Spadina Rd., next door to Casa Loma, presents an Edwar- dian Christmas. Cedar ropes, red satin bows and poinsettias decorate this splendid 1866 mansion. A magnificent 10 -foot Christmas tree stands in the billiard room adorned with a variety of special Edwardian decorations and antique toys, including a splendid doll house. Authentic family Christmas cards from the Austin family who lived at Spadina are also displayed. The historic houses are open daily Monday to Saturday, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sundays, 12 noon to 5 p.m. Admission to Macken- zie house and Colborne Lodge is $3.50 for adults and $2.50 for seniors and children; and to Spadina, $4 for adults and $2.50 for seniors and children.

Red Ribbon Campaign On Drugs The Red Ribbon Cam- paign originated in the United States and became the symbol to reduce the demand for drugs. The campaign is design- ed to create awareness about drug problems fac- ing every community; to establish effective parent community teams across Canada; to support drug-free, healthy lifestyles; and to serve as a catalyst for young people to make a commitment to be drug free. National Drug Awareness Week in Canada is Nov. 19th to 25th and many local groups in Canada, such as PRIDE West Hill Chapter, have ac- cepted the challenge.

In addition to the shor- tage of controllers at Pear- son Airport, the equipment they use is outdated and limits their ability to deal effectively with air traffic. In its letter to the federal Minister of Transport Benoit Bouchard, the board supports the purchase of new controller equipment in line with procedures cur- rently in use at many other world airports. The board also states in its letter that an investment in new equipment would reap tremendous economic benefits for Southern On- tario through higher pro- ductivity levels With the present lack of planning controls the number of cars coming into Metro Toronto every day could more than double, and air quality will suffer taking its toll on crops, forests, buildings and human health all along the ever increasing network of roads and highways. "Quantifying health ef- fects from pollutants is dif- ficult because of a lack of epidemiological research in the Toronto area," says Barbara McElgunn, Scar- borough resident and volunteer research person with the Canadian Associa- tion for Children and Adults with Learning Disabilities. Since its invention in 1904, the automobile has been a significant source of environmental pollution. The contribution of automotive emissions to human toxic exposures is considerable. SPCS members will request Scarborough Board of Health and Council to sup- port the "war on cars" and to join in a push for epidemiological studies. SPCS joined a delegation recently to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs, spon- sored by Women Plan Toronto, to request higher Priority for social and en- vironmental factors in On- tario planning criteria.

The ex- tent of small business expansion, most clearly evidenced by over 1 million startups in the past 10 years, is brought even closer to home by the fact that 80% of the 1.5 million jobs created since 1964 were the product of small business star- tups. With this in mind, Oct. 22nd to 28th has been designated as Small Business Week in Canada, originally launched ten years ago by the Federal Business Develop- ment Bank and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. This year's Small Business Week theme will be that of the changing markets in the 1990's. The spirit driving small business is entrepreneurship. This government is committed to fostering an en- trepreneurial culture in Canada which both reinforces ex- isting small business development, and opens the door to future startups. The role of the federal government in sup- porting this small business boom is clear: to foster an economic climate which is conducive to creating and runn- ing successful small businesses. Through a favourable tax regime which sees Canadian small business paying the lowest tax of any industrialized country, the federal govern- ment continues to work on behalf of small business. In close cooperation with small business groups, provin- Queen's Park Report 'from Norah Stoner MPP Durham West There's no excuse. Wife assault. It is a crime and it is never a private matter - that's the message of the public education campaign being launched by the Honourable Mavis Wilson, Minister Responsible for Women's Issues. In keeping with the government of Ontario's commitment to providing safe and secure communities and personal safety for all women in the province, the month of November, 1989, has been officially declared Wife Assault Prevention Month. The purpose of this month is to focus public attention on the seriousness of wife assault. At least one women in eight in Canada will be assaulted by her partner, and 62 percent of women murder victims die as a result of domestic violence. Wife assault is not confined to any one group in society. It cuts across all boundaries - of class, of geography, of cultures, of income. It is a problem that should concern us all. What exactly is wife assault? Wife assault can include physical assault, and sexual assault as well as psychological and emotional abuse. Emotional abuse can take the form of threats, insults, or threatening behaviour. Physical and sexual abuse are against the law and criminal charges can be laid. The November campaign is part of the government's Joint Family Violence Initiatives aimed at eliminating wife assault in the long term. The OWD co-ordinates 23 in- itiatives provided through 15 ministries; central agencies through the Interministerial Committee on Services Related to Wife -Battering. In addition, through the OWD's Commuarity Grants Program, 106 groups in the province are receiving funding in order to carry out local public education projects tailored to their particular com- munities. Most of the projects designed by these groups are taking place in the month of November. The Report of the Standing Committee on Social Develop- ment entitled "First Report on Family Vioknce: Wife Bat- tering", was tabled in the Ontario legislature in December. 1962. Since that date, both government and com- muruty groups have been active in developing a variety of services and programs in the attempt to respond adequate- ly to this problem- In 1965. a Committee of Deputies was established to study this issue and develop recommenda- tions for a long-term provincial policy. The goals of the Provincial Approach include: -reducing the incidence of wife assault in Ontario; -providing protection for victims of wife assault, and family -focused support services; -providing a coordinated network of comprehensive ser- vices which will effectively utilize community and govern- ment resources in dealing with wife assault. The Strategic Goals of the Provincial Approach include: -The most effective action the Government can take to meet the needs of victims of wife assault is to reduce the in- cidence of this behaviour through a long-term prevention strategy. -The key approach that has been taken to achieve the reduc- tion of the incidence of wife assault has been enhanced criminalizatioi. This means that physical violence by a man toward his wife or common-law partner is no longer seen as a private matter but as a crime. Of course, an awareness campaign is not sufficient in itself to eradicate a problem that is so deep-rooted Only a long term commitment to a comprehensive program of ser- vice provision, enforcement and education will win the bat- tle against wife assault. To bring about this sort of commit- ment, society as a whole must realize it is responsible: wife assault is not a "family matter" and doesn't just concern women. Wife assault is everyone's concern.

The export potential of Canadian Small Business is enor- mous. The Free Trade agreement with the United States presents innumerable opportunities, especially for small companies in niche markets. On the international side, Canadian small and medium-sized businesses already en- joy significant success, due in no small part to our vigorous marketing and information services. I encourage the entrepreneurs of Ontario Riding to take part in a number of forums organized by the FBDB and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. They will help thousands of entrepreneurs from around the country to get a clearer understanding of what it takes to compete in today's market place. In addition, the Entrepreneurship and Small Business Office of Industry, Science and Technology Canada has tabled its first national report on small business in Canada entitled, "Small Business in Canada - Growing to Meet Tomorrow".
