Adelaide McLaughlin School Growing Space Tomatoes
Budding student scien-

periment with tomato
seeds from space.
During the spring
semester, students will
grow and monitor space-
exposed
pacesexposed seeds and Earth -
based seeds, searching for
differences caused by long-
term exposure to cosmic
radiation. Results gathered
by the students will be for-
warded to NASA by June
15, for a final report.
For nearly 6 years the
seeds were exposed to the
harshenvironment of
space, subjected to cosmic
radiation, temperature ex-
tremes, weightlessness and
the vacuum of space.
Students will be looking for
possible mutations to the
tomato plant, such as
changes in fruit size and
colour, growth rate, and
leaf, stem and stalk shapes
and sizes. The pink
grapefruit is a mutation
resulting from irradiating
the white grapefruit seed.
The Space Exposed Ex-
periment Developed for

of 57 experiments hou ;ecu

What Ever Happened
To Canadian Nationality?
by Bob Watson
Our forefathers - at least those of tis who are many
generations in Canada - spent a lot of valuable time putting
this beautiful Canada of ours together and now a handful of
agitators are trying their best to ruin this lovely country of
ours. From our point of view this is almost treason and
should be dealt with in a decisive way.
Back in the days before World War II in the Toronto area
it was the English. Irish or Scottish areas of people and
those of tris who were born here in Canada had to fight for a
long time to get our nationality to the forefront of this coun-
try. In 1947 Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent's government
passed the Canadian Citizenship Act and those of us with
strong Canadian feelings finally became Canadians - not
English -Canadians, not Scottish -Canadians and not Irish -
Canadians. We were all Canadians. And this included the
numbers of Canadians with black skin whose ancestors
came up from slavery in the United States to our fair land.
For a few years Canadians flourished with "O Canada"
becoming jurat a notch ahead of "God Save The Queen", Our
British connection had given us the best fund of laws and
rules to live by .. until under Prime Minister Trtdeau it
was decided to have our own constitution. The British have
lived for centuries without a constitution but with a charter
of rights and years of tradition to law, which we had in our
rules then.
The idiotic constitution has created a lot of tensions and
Americans warned us that a constitution similar to theirs
would make changes in our democracy difficult. Oh they
were so right' Now Quebec is trying to get special rights
and privileges trader our constitution to foster their feeling
of difference from the rest of us Canadians. They want bil-
ingualism all across Canada - but no English on signs in
Quebec. Some equality' And as for a "distinct" society,
what is so different about Quebec society? Is not a citizen of
Ontario "distinct" as well' People from British Columbia
feel a little different than those of us from Ontario. It is all
part of our targe land mass that we can all be different and
yet put of the same country. We don't need any official
-distinct" societies.
Why are Quebecers worrying because a few Ontario peo-
ple trample on the Quebec provincial flag'. After all in
Quebec they rarely hold up a Canadian flag - but only their
own "distinct" provincial flag. Some Canadians'
The latest aggravations with towns in Ontario declaring
themselves " unilinigual" in order to avoid the cosi of two
languages unnecessarily was created by the Peterson
government in Ontario when they legislated "official bil-
ingualism". When we weren't "official" our children were
going to French immersion classes and we are as bilingual
as we can be when the French language is not spoken in too
many places. In our opinion we should never have laws
decreeing that we just speak a certain language. With
Quebec's diminishing population and lowest birth rate in
Canada it is not difficult to visualize a Quebec which speaks
English in 10u years'
So why isn't Canadianism being promoted in our dear
country in the last few years' Mainly, in our opinion,
because politicians believe that they get more votes if they
back "multiculturalism" and in Ontario politicians have
decreed that we must have "heritage language" classes in
schools to promote the languages of our immigrants. And
we always thought people came to Canada to become Cana-
dian - %0hich means you speak English or French'

tia%v League First Woman President
Marilyn Machum of Calgary. Alberta was elected %a-
tional President of The Navy League of Canada during the
league's recent annual general meeting in Ottawa. She is
the first woman to hold this position in the 95 year history of
the Navy League.
Mrs. Machum's election as the league's 22nd president
highlights a long association with the Navy League which
began in 1956 when she joined as a Navy League Wrenette
at ELh1CS Tecumseh in Calgary. After 13 years as a Navy
League Officer, she was appointed to the league's National
Council in 1974 and has since chaired numerous league com-
mittees. In recognition of her volunteer work with the Navy

Letter To The Editor
Sad & Ashamed
Being a conservative all my adult life, (36 years) it is with
a great deal of sadness and shame that I am writing this let-
ter.
But the time has come for me to speak out against the dic-
tatorship of Brian Mulroney. I and people like me gave Mr.
Mulroney the mandate to serve the people of Canada, we
did not give him the mandate to become a dictator.
His arrogance and the complete disregard for the
democratic rights of the peopleng the G.S.T. is for
me the last straw. He is a disgrace Tory party. and a
poor excuse for a Canadian.
Surely there is something wrong with this country when
men of honour and integrity ;the two M.P.s from=)
are treated like whip dogs by lying Brian, for having the
courageto serve the people by voting against the G.S.T.
The G.S.T. is completely unfair and gives Mulroney and
Wilson the licence to steal from the people anytime the
want. But hope springs eternal, we can stop the G.S. .
I.R.A.T.E. citizens of Peterborough have a petition out
from the Senate of Canada, if you are against the G.S.T.
please sign it.
If there is not a petition in your area, contact I.R.A.T.E.
citizens of Peterborough K9J ;iii, Box 1473. They need ten
million signatures to give the Senate the mandate from the
people to stop this hideous tax. The Senate is there to serve
the people, if we ignore the Senate then we deserve the dic-
tatorstup of lying Brian.
Yours sincerely

vices and programs for immigrants and refugees will in-
crease by more than half a million dollars in 1990 91, to a
total of $5.1 million, Minister of Citizenship Bob Wong an-
nounced recently.
With this substantial increase, up to 160 organizations will
be able to benefit from operational funding provided
through the new Ontario Settlement and Integration Pro-
gram (OSIP).

Cir VA `= IMPROVEMENTS TO TRUNK SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM
ORD"BLACK CREEK SANITARY DRAINAGE AREA
C � CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
.t, va,+ �-` Notice of Completion of Environmental Study Report
f M53 May 24. 1990
As required under Ontario's Environmental Assessment Act, the Metropolitan Toronto
Works Department hereby notifies all interested individuals and parties that the
Environmental Study Report (ESR) for the above-mentioned project has been completed.
Subject to the comments received and upon receipt of necessary approvals, the
Metropolitan Toronto Works Department intends to proceed with this project.
The Black Creek sanitary drainage area generally comprises those lands adjacent to. and
in the vicinity of Keele Street and Jane Street, between St Clair Avenue and Steeles
Avenue. This study has been undertaken to plan methods of improving the trunk sanitary
sewer system. including correction of existing deficiencies and provision of more
capacity for new sanitary flows from proposed urban development and redevelopment
projects.
A new trunk sewer tunnel is proposed to extend from Murray Ross Parkway. north of Finch
Avenue, southerly along Keele Street. to the Hydro Electric Power Commission right-of-
way, north of St. Clair. and thence westerly along that right-of-way to intercept the
Humber Sanitary Trunk Sewer on the east bank of the Humber River.
Connections to the existing Black Creek Sanitary Trunk Sewer will be made along the
Maryport Ave. and Nashville/Hyde Ave. right-of-ways. A buried storage facility will be
constructed on the southwest corner of Alliance Ave. and Rockcliffe Blvd.
The estimated project cost is $98.6 million and the anticipated construction period is
1991-1995.
The ESR will be available for review and c)ublic comment at

Bill Watt's Worlds
DINNER THEATRE:
"The play's the
thing!" -Bill Shakespeare.
"Or is it?" -Bill Watt.
Shear Madness is the
current dinner theatre at-
traction at La Cage (Yonge
Street just south of Dundas
and presided over by old
buddy Peter Schopfer) . It's
a straight -no raised
eyebrows please -comedy
about a murder committed
in a styling salon located
this time 'round in The
Beaches.
Call it a comic hoodunnit
if you like. It most certain-
ly is that but in the way of
participatory theatre it is
up to the audience to deter-
mine just hoodtmnit. The
audience actually does
decide because the ending
of Shear Madness is never
the same twice running.
Well. hardly ever.
It's all great fun and per-
formed at breakneck speed
and little attempt at more
than surface characteriza-
tion. That's not to say that
the players are incapable
of it; only to state that it's
not necessary for what is a
virtual and so intended
farce.
Michael Lamport looks
like Robin Williams and
sounds like Charles
Hawtrey as he plays the
gay proprietor of Shear
Madness c ••wee cut arta dye
for you").
Mark Camach as Jac-
ques Trudeau is essence of
bull cop as the police in-
spector wearing a Blue
Jay's T-shirt. As he is being
shaved by the gay owner
one wonders if perhaps the
name might better be
changed to Jacques Strop.
Think about that one,
gang!
Hrothgar Mathews is his
assistant and plays the role
as now more or less
demanded with humbling
competence while Neil
Faster is along as the chief
suspect in the offstage
murder.
Diane Fabian who has
been in Barbara
Hamilton's shadow for too
long now is a society
matron plump of body but
filled with a zest for sex
and Audrey Webb is the
neurotic partner in the
salon who might be having
an affair but with male or
female or both.
By now you should have
some idea of what to expect
from Shear Madness at La
Cage . . an evening of
laughs, an opportunity to
test one's wits and even
perhaps to interplay with
the performers.
You'll also get a
reasonably good meal. We
recommend the roast beef
well done. Mind you that
wasn't what we ordered but
what we got was sheer
serendipity.
Well done all 'round,
literally and figuratively.

in which women stop war
by withholding their
favours. Quoting from the
publicity release, "Com-
edy, drama and audience
participation mix with
large puppets, stilt
walkers, parade and non-
violent action as the play is
adapted to Shadowland's
unique brand of pageantry,
procession and parody."
There's no question of
parody but why? Why
should the works of
Aristophanes be presented
other than as written and
conceived? That brings us
to the next quotation from
the same release.
Artistic Director Alice
Norton states "We are ex-
cited about taking the au-
dience out of a traditional
theatrical setting into Har-
bourfront's unique outdoor
environment."
We make no claims that
we are a student of theatre
history but surely this is
the way in which
Aristophanes' plays were
fust presented .. outdoors.
We suggest that Miss
Norton learn the difference
between tradition and re-
cent custom; theatre and
theatrical.
Those who wish to view
the bastardization and pro-
bably bowdlerism of a
classic are reminded that
the performances begin at
9:30 p.m.
As for us, we think we'll
opt for moussaka at
Penelope's.
EN POINTE:
Yoko lchino and David
Nixon have announced that
they are leaving the Na-
tional Ballet because they
wish to dance together
more often. Rad Anderson,
the Artistic Director of the
company feels that the two
dancers can develop fur-
ther with a variety of part-
ners.
We are sorry to see the
talented man and wife
team depart the company
but cannot help applauding
the firmness of Mr. Ander-
son in his decision. It is
another manifestation of
his determined and deter-
minate leadership. One

Mr. Anderson will not ap-
parently sacrifice or sur-
render the ideals of the
company to any in-
dividuals. It is not for us to
say if his decision, his
stand here is correct. We
know only that a stand was
made and we applaud the
gentleman for it.
Balletomanes will be
pleased to note that the Na-
tional's annual
choreographic workshop is
to be held from June 7th
through the 9th at the Betty
Oliphant Theatre.
Tickets are a surprising-
ly modest $12 for adults, $10
for seniors and students.
We say "surprisingly"
because this is an oppor-
tunity to see new works. ex-
perimental works in their
birth pangs; works that
might some day become a
part of the repertoire d
ballet companies
throughout the world.
It's rather like being in
the studio of an artist as be
commits his latest work to
canvas. Well all right,
maybe that's over blown
but you know what we
meati.
Meanwhile those same
balletomanes must be
chuckling over a recent
typo to winch we described
a lady dancing a pas de
cinq with a gentleman.
Even the most modest
knowledge of anatomy
would signal that
gentleman should have
read gentlemen.
ART SEEN:
The Raschar Gallery at
112 Avenue Rd., is presem
ting Big Fun in Strange
Places, a collection of por-
trait photography by
Patrick Harbron.
Mr. Harbron is a per-
sonable young man who
looks like a cross between
George Fox and Wierd Al
Yadkovic. The observation
is not intended as a pe-
jorative but it sprung to
mind after viewing these
fine photographs of
celebrities and per-
sonalities.
The true portraitist im-
bues each subject with
something unique. Mr.
Harbron does that in
spades with a quality of
uniqueness that wanders
toward but doesn't quite
reach the weird.
There is for example a
portrait of John Candy with
his more or less patented
elfin grin. He is not
however, centered. He is
peeking around the corner
of the frame.
Ex -president Jimmy
Carter is centered but in an
apparent shaft of light in
front of a curved row of
Greek columns while wear-
ing a grey business suit.
Henny Youngman's por-
trait might well be that of
the severed head of John
the Baptist smiling from
the curve of a violin's
sound box.
These are just a few ex-
amples. We would not wish
to give the impression that
these portraits by Patrick
Harbron are to be thought
of as funky or unusual;
they are simple -simply! -

portraitist, one who takes
an undoubted great skill

Thomas John Thomson
was born near Claremont,
Ont. on Aug. 4, 1877. He
drowned tragically in
Canoe Lake, Algonquin
Park in July 1917. Thomson
was basically a self-taught
artist working initially in
crayon and water colour.
He later turned to painting
in oils based on rapidly
made sketches. During his
early career he worked
with various commercial
studios. He spent the last
two summers of his life
working in Algonquin Park
as a park ranger and guide.
Thomson is considered to
be the spiritual father of
the Group of Seven, if not a
:member.

Kids Are Free At Some
Clud Med Resorts
It's not just that kids can
vacation for free, it's what
they get for free that
makes Club Med the best
value in family vacations.
Among the latest innova-
tions at Family Villages: a
brand-new look in
Eleuthera complete with a
kid -size sailing fleet and a
Pony Club at St. Lucia.
At four Club Med villages
- Sandpiper, St. Lucia, Pun-
ta Cana and Eleuthera -
kids between the ages of 2
and 5 stay free May 5 -June
16 and Sept. s -Dec. 15.
At Sandpiper. babies ag-
ed 423 months are also
welcome at no charge. Ix-
tapa, however, welcomes
2-5 years old free from May
5 right through to Dec. 15.
And at all family-oriented
resorts except Sandpiper,
air -inclusive packages for
kids and their parents are
also available.
Today, there are 38 Mini
Clubs and 13 Baby Clubs
dotted around the world
from Bali to Brazil, from
Japan to the U.S.A. And, a
total of 115,000 youngsters
under the age of 12 spent
their vacation at Club Med
in 1989. Close to home,
family villages with Minn
Clubs are located at St.
Lucia ( island of St. Lucia) ,
Ixtapa ( Mexico), Punta
Cana (Dominican
Republic ) and Eleuthera
(mss).
Club Med-Sandpiper
(Florida) boasts a Mini
Club and a Baby Club,
making it the only village
in this hemisphere where
tots 4-23 months are
welcorned and cared for
from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Club Med's concept is to
treat children like real peo-
ple, creating a vacation at-
mosphere where both
parents and kids each have
the freedom to pursue their
own interests at their own
speed. All Mini Clubs are
run by specially trained
young people who dote on
children.
Depending on age and
village, activities include:
waterskiing, swimming,
scuba diving, tennis, ar-
chery, sailing. bicycling,
windsurfing, snorkeling,
golf, arts and crafts, pic-
nics and excursions. At the
newest Mini Club on St.
Lucia, Go-Karting on a
specially built safety track,
and a Pony Club where
children 8-12 years old are
taught riding fundamentals
in daily half-hour classes
(extra chrge), are
highlighted.
But the favourite activity
in every Mini Club village
is Circus. Flying on a high
trapese. Bouncing on the
trampoline. Juggling. The
best night of the week -
when Mini Clubbers put on
a Circus Show for their pro-
ud parents.
Mini Club activities are
closely supervised with
safety a top concern. All in-
structors are highly train-
ed and the best child -sized
equipment is used for each
activity.
WHAT IS A MINI CLUB?

age are welcomed for a full
program of activities from

come for part of the day,
the whole day, drop by for a
favourite activity, or even
skip a day. Early optional
supervised lunches and
dinners for Mini Clubbers
feature foods kids enjoy.
And, there are always
after-dinner activities:
treasure hunts, country
fairs, puppet shows, before
the major evening enter-
tainment begins.
Children are divided in
Mini Club by age. Petit

At the present time, there are two rather contentious bills
before the federal government. These two issues have the
potential to affect a large number of Canadians. The mat-
ters at hand are the Act to Amend the UI Act (Bill C-21) and
An Act respecting abortion.
On November 6th, 1989 An Act to Amend the UI Act pass-
ed third reading in the House of Commons after being in-
troduced to the House one year ago. However, the Senate
has refused to pass the Bill, instead offering a number of
amendments. Bill C-21 has majority support across the
country, as evidenced by both departmental and indepen-
dent polling, contrary to the claims of the Liberal Senators.
The price -tag for the amendments demanded by Liberal
Senators is at least $1.7 billion dollars annually. That is
money we simply do not have.
Bill C-21 has many positive aspects which the Liberal
dominated Senate refuses
recognize.toThe Bill will in-
crease expenditures for those kng training by $350,
transferring the emphasis of UI from support benefits to
training and skills development. The amendments will in-
troduce a multi -tiered system of maternity, parental, and
sickness benefits up to thirty weeks as compared to the pre-
sent fifteen. In addition, there will be tougher qualifying
rules for UI claimants. If the Liberals and NDP agree with
what the Liberal Senators are doing, they are agreeing that
the Senate not only has the power to change spending
priorities set by the House, but ought to wield that power.
On May 23rd and 24th, the Legislative Committee study-
ing the abortion legislation will report back to the House.
During the Report stage, any amendments to the Bill are
corssi and possible further amendments may be
made. Once this stage is the Bill is given its thud
reading upon which it will be voted on May 28th.
May 14th to 2Dth is Canada's fourth National Tourism
Awareness Week. As a ma national industry, tourism
plays a key role in the vitality of the Canadian economy.
The most recent data indicates that tourism in Canada is
now a $24 billion industry, employing over 63D,000 Cana-
dians and ranks third among Canada's top foreign ex-
change earnings.
About $11 billwn of the total tourism revenue goes back to
the municippaal, provincial and federal governments. The
tourism industry helps to build roads, schools. arenas, and
helps to support a larger number of social programs. For
every dollar spent by a tourist, an additional 67 cents is ac-
tually generated within the community. As a result. the $24
billion spent by tourists in 1988 actually represents over $40
billion in economic activity in Canada. So if you see a
'ourist, be nice to them.
