Durham Bd. Of Education Highlights
Ce respondeeee Received
Trustees commented
favourably on the letter
received from Regional
Director of Education
Sheila Roy on the Board's
1989 annual report to the
Minister on the provision of
Special Education pro-
grams and service. Sheila
Roy praised a number of
new initiatives and dimc-
tions being initiated in
Durham. These include the
establishment of social
worker poli tions in elemeo-
terry schools; the addition
of extra staff and support
services for secondary
gifted, multi -handicapped
and learning strategies
students: the addition of
extra language,
behavioural and diagnostic
classes at the elementary
level; the implementation
of a pilot project for
students with mild com-
munication and or
behavioural excep-
tionalities; and the im-
plementation of a Durham
Board of Education In-
tegration Handbook as the
basis of forming decisions
regarding integration for
individual students.
Trustees were pleased with
Sheila Roy's enthusiasm
for the Board's annual
report and praised Bill
Fairburn, Superintendent
of Special Education Ser-
vices, and his staff for their
hard work.
Ten Pass Supervisory Of-
ficer Exams
Director of Education
Pauline Laing reported
that ten Durham Board ad-
ministrators recently pass-
ed the difficult Supervisory
Officer exams. They are:
Pat Prentice, Norm
Powers, Kathy Brown,
Greg Steffler, Trudy
Deacon, Maret Sadem-
Thompson, Peter Neve,
Laura Elliott, Sandra Dean
and Marg Hildenbrand.
The director extended con-
gratulations to the suc-
cessful candidates and
noted that Durham's suc-
cess rate for these ex-
aminations was very high
as compared with other
boards across the province.
Community Living
Association Has Changing
Role
Paul Woodcroft, Com-
munity Development Co-
ordinator for the Oshawa
and District Association for
Community Irving, spoke
to trustees about the chang-
ing role of the organization.
In the past, the association
provided only services for
people with developmental
difficulties: whereas, now
it is endeavouring to pro-
vide
rovide support and resources
for these people in order to
assist them to lead produc-
tive and happy lives.
He was joined by associa-
tion member Joanne
Peacock whose handicaps
do not prevent her from be-
ing a valued and con-
tributing member of the
staff team at the Central Cl
daycare unit. She spoke of
the need for handicapped
persons to be treated both
fairly and with dignity.
Joanne attended several
Oshawa elementary
schools before graduating
from General Vanier SS.
She was commended by
trustees for being a very
capable spokesperson for
the Oshawa and District
Association for Community
Irving. Both Joanne and

Canada - Pitstop
For Martians?
Last week, I was at the Birchmount Track and Field Day
watching my daughter perform for her school. I was proud
all over. There were our finest young people getting ready
to test their physical abilities. Truely this was an event that
should bond us together. But when the national anthem
started, it became clear why some continued on sitting and
chatting away the time.
I have heard it from adults, usually the young busy ones,
you know the type. The "I work all day and I've got kids
too:" type. The ones that need to get to the point quickly
because they have other things to do. It says something
about our times. It says something about the root of the pro-
blem. We have become a group of groups' Distinct - each
and everyone of us. So distinct, that we notice no real
distinctions anvinore.
However, to finish off the story. I shamed two of the
young women who were sitting in front of me while I sang
O' Canada, by asking "Are your from Mars?" You may
well wonder about me, but I assure you there was no harm
intended and they stood up promptly when they knew that
someone cared enough to speak out'.
Allow this poor little Italian immigrant to speak out to-
day. Unless we protect the heritage of this country, and the
history that makes us one, it will together with our pride, be
washed away with a word. Multiculturalism. The work
which cuts away at Canada like a thousand knives. It is a
word that claims a distinct society in all of us. In fact we are
like snowflakes. distinct from one another. But for Canada
when comparing its provinces. there is a distinction. And
while it is again true that each province is different.
Quebec's differences are more noticeable. Even more
noticeable than crossing the American border is for most of
us.
We need to repair the damages done to our national pride.
So that our children notice that we have pride. So much
pride that they too will stand for Canada. We the busy
adults with jobs and children too. must have time to stop
and smell the trilliums. To take time to know the issues and
not just the capsulated news that allows for pleasant lunch
time conversation. Canada must not become a pitstop for
Martians on their w•ay to a new• galaxy. Canada is home.
Let's make it home for Canadians.

Scarborough General
Hospital celebrated the 3rd
anniversary of its Lifeline
program on June 5th of this
year. Lifeline is a 24 hour
home personal emergency
response system designed
to help elderly, disabled
and medically at risk in-
dividuals in medical and
environmental emergen-
cies.
The program offers
subscribers peace of mind
and independence, as well
as reassurance for con-
cerned family and friends.
Lifeline enables in-
dividuals to contact the
hospital from their homes
at a push of a button. The
button may be worn around
the neck or the %list. Once
depressed, the button ac-
tivates a bome unit con-
nected to the telephone.
automatically dialing the
Emergency Response
Team at the hospital.
Trained personnel im-
mediately call the
subscribers home to ensure
that the button was inten-
tionally pressed. In the
event of no response, a
"Responder" is called by
the hospital. This person
who may be a friend,
neighbour or relative, who
lives in close proximity to
the subscriber, goes to the
home.
The hospital then checks
to see if more help may be
needed such as an am-
bulance or police.
A two-way voice unit
which frees the subscriber
from having to lift up the
telephone receiver, enables
them to have constant con-
tact with the hospital. By
merely pressing the
emergency button, the
subscriber becomes im-
mediately linked with the
hospital.

Drop In average Price
The Canadian Real Estate Association has confirmed a
drop in the average price of multiple listing service sales in
the greater Toronto market to just under $261,000 in March
of 1990, from $277.300 at the top of the market one year ago.
This is a $13,300 reduction in value - and, in spite of this, the
standard 6% M.L.S. real estate commission, even on the
lower price is $15,840 - a potential reduction in net cash to
the vendor of $29,140.
Job Market Shows Cautious Hiring
The Metro Toronto area will offer job seekers limited op-
portunities for the coming summer months, according to
results of the latest Employment Outlook Survey released
by Manpower Temporary Services, the world's largest
employment service.
Manpower's third quarter 1990 survey of local
employers indicates that 21% expect to increase staff dur-
ing the July August September period and 11% plan cut-
backs," said Bob Goodman, President of Manpower's
Toronto office. "Another 65% anticipate no changes and the
remaining 3% are uncertain about their summertime
employment needs."
Public Utilities Receives ;22,313
The Scarborough Public Utilities Commission has receiv-
ed $22,313 as first payment for a water works project under
the lifeLines Program, Environment Minister Jim
Bradley has announced. The project involves the construc-
tion of watermains on Rockwood Dr. and Bellamy Rd., bet-
ween Oakridge Dr. and Martindale Rd. in the city of Scar-
borough.
The money is part of a grant estimated at $33,000, which
is a provincial contribution toward the total cost of the pro-
ject, estimated at $100,000.

Joey Honsburger a 75
year old Scarborough resi-
dent, has been with the pro-
gram since May 1968. For
Joey, Lifeline offers a vital
service that she could not
do without. "I feel very
comfortable and secure
with the Lifeline program
because it's just like hav-
ing someone there," she
says. On several occasions
Joey has had to use the
emergency button and ac-
cording to her "the
response from the hospital
was immediate".

$242,000
The Volunteers (Aux-

General Hospital presented
the hospital with a cheque
i n the sum of $242,000 at
their annual dinner and
meeting at the Sheraton
Toronto East Hotel and

The funds have been rais-
ed through sales in the
hospital's gift shops and
special events such as the
Christmas Bazaar,
50's 60's Hop dance, book
sales, Wintario sales and
by donations to the
Memorial and Gift Fund.
Ron Bodrug, President of
Scarborough General ex-
pressed his appreciation of
this substantial donation,
on behalf of all staff and pa-
tients.
"We are sincerely
grateful to our volunteers
for raising such a sizeable
amount of money for our
hospital. In addition to
their much needed finan-
cial support, we truly ap-
preciate the assistance
they provide on a daily
basis.'

Hospital Auxiliary and
from an initial member-
ship of 26. they now number

Among the highlights of
the evening will be the
premiere of "Ladies in
Pink and Men in Blue", the
first ever volunteer orien-
tation and recruitment
video produced for the
hospital.
National Access Awareness Week
National Access Awareness Week, from June 10 to 16, will
be celebrated across :North America.
"Recreation Day". June 14, will focus on recreation,
sports and fitness for disabled people. The Ministry of
Tourism & Recreation is proud of initiatives such as the
Community Recreation Development and Community
Recreation Capital programs which ensure all Ontarians
access to recreation facilities throughout Ontario.
The Ministry also supports organizations dedicated to
promoting sports and fitness, such as Sport for the Disabled
Ontario. We help coordinate the Ontario Games for the
Physically Disabled, to be held July 6 to 8 in Etobicoke this
year. The Games, which have a tradition stretching back 15
years, have contributed significantly to the development of
amateur sport in Ontario.
Disabled persons contribute to the sports and fitness
legacy shared by every active Ontarian. "Recreation Day"
of National Access Awareness Week is an opportunity to
recognize their achievements and potential.

The new OMPP
puts the brakes on
car insurance razes.
Automobile insurance rates have been
skyrocketing.
Since 1987, the Ontario government has
been trying to control the escalating cost of car
insurance by capping rates.
Still, increases of 30-35 % were required
this year to cover the increased cost of claims
from accidents and injuries on Ontario's roads.
Clearly, something had to be done.
The solution is a comprehensive new system
of automobile insurance- It's called the Ontario
Motorist ProteLtion Plat.
The OMPP makes it easier, quicker and less
costly to get payments to those who need them
after an accident. And it allows insurance companies
to keep rate increases modest - this year,
and in the future.
PUTTING THE BRAKES ON RATES.
The new plan will hold premium increases this
year to only 8 % on average in urban areas,
while average rates in rural areas will not
increase at all.
This helps to keep insurance affordable for
people who drive for a living, seniors and those
on fixed incomes. and young drivers as well.
WHAT ABOUT COMPENSATION IN
THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT?
Today, you usually have to sue to recover
damages. It's a time-consuming and expensive
process.
Underthe Ontario Motorist Protection Plan,
your own insurance company handles your
claim when you have an accident. Accident
benefits are guaranteed, and begin quickly after
the claim is filed. Because the sooner benefits
are paid, the sooner people can get on with
their lives.
Accident benefits are paid without hassling
over fault. Because injured people need medical
assistance, income replacement and child care
right away!
But if you are driving while drunk or
convicted of a criminal offence in regard to your
accident, you will not get income benefits.
DOES FAULT STILI. COUNT?
Under the Ontario :Motorist Protection Plan,
"fault" will continue to be used for rating purposes.
Good drivers will be rewarded with good rates.
Bad drivers will be charged higher premiums.
And there are now higher fines for traffic violations
such as speeding.
If you are at fault in an accident, you will
pay for damage to your own car to the extent that
you are at fault, unless you have optional collision
coverage.
One goal of the OMPP is to ensure help is
there when it is needed, reducing economic
hardship. Another is to keep insurance rates
within reach of the average driver. It's a balanced
approach.
And that's the right direction for auto
insurance.
Your insurance company and your broker or
agent have all the details. And you will receive
an information brochure with your premium notice

Bill Watt's Worlds
ON STAGE:
Stories of social inferiors
taking over and ruining the
lives of their perceived
"betters" are not a staple
of the theatre or the motion
picture screen. A few come
to mind, however.
One remembers Maurice
Evans almost devastating
Ethel Barrymore in Kind
Ladv. "Almost" because of
Hollywood's demands for
happy endings in those
days. Later Dirk Bogarde.
Alexander Knox and Alexis
Smith appeared in The
Sleeping Tiger, a quickie
made to satisfy Britain's
Films Quota Act. Some
years later in 1963 there
was Robin Maucham's The
Servant starring the same
Dirk Bogarde. James Fox,
Sarah Miles and Wendy
Craig.
In 1973 The Servant was
presented successfully on
stage in Britain.
Now. in 1990 it has finally
reached North America
and is being presented in
the lovingly refurbished
Bayview Playhouse.
The constant in The Ser-
vant's predecessors was
the pervading feeling of
mounting horror, even ter-
ror. It's there in The Ser-
vant but incredibly
transformed into humour.
Well. not really humour but
there are some laughs.
Well, not really laughs but
a few chuckles. Well ...
Look The Servant is not
everyone's cup of Darjeel-
ing. It is a play for discern-
ing and knowledgeable
theatregoers. Though not
eschewing the visceral its
appeal is to the cerebral. It
is cleverly written and
mounted and, in this pro-
duction, impeccably per-
formed by a well nigh mat-
chless cast under the gent-
ly firm direction of Allan
Davis. Stay with us please
if you've come this far.
In the title role Keir
Dullea is all quiet menace
gift %Tapped in a surpris-
ingly constant
Yorkshire Lancashire -
take your pick -accent. Bah
goom. it do grow on one it
do.
His actions and de-
meanour are those of a well
qualified manservant.
determinate and thorough.
They are also the mirror of
this mean and shabby man
as he determines to make
the master his equal, a
fellow debauchee.
Readers will rightly
wonder how all this was ap-
parent to us. We cannot ex-
plain. We can only suggest
that Mr. Dullea shares a
gift of the late Spencer
Tracy: that of projecting
the inner man.
As well he has the star
quality that makes him the
centre of all eves whenever
he is on stage.
David Ferry is the
young. well not quite
young. master. One wat-
ches with horror his decline

He is a master of
stagecraft as well. Watch
for the first trembling of
his hands, the increasing
slackness of the sensual
mouth, the dulling of the
eyes. We risk no exaggera-
tion in suggesting that the
performance of Mr. Perry
is unforgettable.
As two -count 'em, two -
gluts. Sally Cahill and Erin
McMurtry evoke feelings
of lust that are better left
buried. We suspect that all
the men in the audience ex-
perience a back alley
desire for a romp with
either or both of them while
every decent woman would
like to scratch their eyes
out. Their performances
are more than mildly
erotic.
Eric McCormack per-
forms well in a largely
thankless role as the decent
friend of the master trying
to prevent the obvious
decline of his chum. Or is
he? Might he not just be
after him for himself as
briefly suggested towards
the end of the play?
Jayrie Lewis is essence of
ladyinlove, for what ever
reason, with the master. A
lady and yet not above a bit
of slap and tickle herself.
In show business
parlance a yawner is
something dull and slow. It
is not to be confused with a
sleeper. A sleeper is a play
or motion picture that is
not thought to have broad
popular appeal but which
catches on and becomes
commercially successful.
The Servant might or
might not be for everyone.
And yet. and yet. we have
this feeling -more than a
hope -that it will be the
sleeper of the Season. It
most certainly deserves to
be.
Go see it and see if we're
right.

there simply to see and
hear Miss Dion, the
popular Quebec based
rocker?
Well, we're sure he saw
her as we all did but cannot
comment on whether or not
he heard her as we did.
There seems to be a
lyrical quality in her sing-
ing but it was buried under
an avalanche of thundering
sound and obscured by
mechanical stage

We're probably dating

that Mlle. Dion could learn

From July 7th through
the 28th Sharon Temple is
presenting a unique
music drama by Harry
Somers and James Reaney
titled Serinette.
Speaking candidly we
find the works of Mr.
Somers rather esoteric and
cannot comment on their
musical worth. Both he and
Mr. Reaney are well
regarded in the artistic
community However and a
joint work by them
deserves custom.
Also well worth custom is
the Sharon Temple. It is a
beautiful building that is
most soothing to the eye. It
is also well nigh acoustical-
ly perfect and a fine setting
for Serinette.
But wait, there is another
setting as well. At intermis-
sion the audience enjoys a
picnic supper prepared by
Millcroft Inn. The dishes
are those of the pioneer
times in which Serinette is
set.
Among them are
Cucumber soup with mint,
Old York veal and ham pie.
Indian corn and leek bread
and Lucy Jarvis' lemon
tart.
The evening begins at
6:30 p.m. on the grounds of

MPP Durham West
Wed. June 13, 1990 THE POST Page 7
Lamb and the barbecue: a winning combination
For the past several months, my office has been putting
together what is affectionately called a "Caucus
Outreach". Simply put, it means that several of my col-
leagues from the Greater Toronto Area were invited to
Durham Region to view this riding, and gain a better
perspective of the issues facing the constituenfs of Durham
West.
Caucus outreaches are organized to allow for greater
understanding of key issues in individual ridings by all
members of Caucus. Members can then provide support,
encouragement and ideas to their colleagues on how to ad-
dress and solve concerns in a particular riding. This
understanding is crucial for the members of the Greater
Toronto Area. Many of the MPPs are facing similar pro-
blems such as waste management and hospital facilities.
By networking and brainstorming, many terrific ideas are
developed in our Caucus meetings.
In total, eight of my colleagues (Honourable Greg Sor-
bara, Minister of Consumer and Commercial Relations:
Peter Adams, MPP for Peterborough: Bill Ballinger. MPP
for Durham -York: Walt Elliot, MPP for Halton North.
Frank Faubert, MPP for Scarborough -Ellesmere: Carman
McLelland, MPP for Brampton -North: Bruce Owen, MPP
for Simeoe Centre and John Sola. MPP for '.Mississauga
East) visited the riding during the day. We began with a
morning breakfast hosted by Pickering Mayor Wayne An
thurs and members of Pickering Council. Topics included
the proposed Highway 407 expansion, and the new Seaton
community. Council is working very closely with the
Ministries of Transportation and Haring on both of these
issues• and their input has been extremely valuable.
Our next session was a presentation by Irene Kock from
Durham Nuclear Awareness. She addressed the realities of
living next to two nuclear generating station. Irene also had
several suggestions on how hoses can be built more
energy efficiently. You might enjoy watching Irene on
Cable during the next few weeks: I have just finished doing
a cable tapng with her regarding these same issues. She
has many enlightening suggestions, as well as concerns.
that are worth tuning in for.
We then proceed on a driving tour through the Seaton
lands, stopping at Elirpa Recycling on Brock Road for a
demonstration of their concrete crushing machines. The
Apile family have been in the recycling business for the
past three years, and anticipate that with the housing
developments and toad construction that they will be mov-
ing more than 100,000 tonnes of recycled concrete.
Representatives from "Friends of Whitevale" and the
LACAC group japed us for lunch at the Green River com-
munity centre. Lloyd Thomas. Anna Willson and Isobel
Thompson, in particular, eloquently expressed the views d
the Whitevale residents - "a dunzp at the proposed site is
simply not acceptable...
Isobel and Lloyd impressed upon the attending MPPs,
that although I had fought hard against the landfill site, and
had sought to publicize the negative impacts of such a
dump, in conjunction with the citine>s of Whitevale, the bat-
tle still goes on. My colleagues learned, from the eloquent
presenters, that knowledge d such an unaccepteble pro-
posal is crucial to winning the dump fight. To further
demonstrate this. we toured the area, and showed my col-
leagues exactly how large the proposed site is for just an
"interim site".
Our entourage then drove to Ajax to tour the Finnish sub-
sidiary company of Nokia Products Limited. President Al
Gilcrest introduced ups to the varied product lines of the
Ajax branch: footwear ( running shoes, fishing boots); tires
(specializing in snow tires) ; and cellulor telephones. As
well, our tour of the plant highlighted the emphasis on
employee satisfaction: summer work hours, bright and
cheerful work areas, and sauna and kitchen facilities.
Nokia has been in Ajax for five years, and recently moved
to their new plant at a?5 Wostney Road South.
Ajax Council were our next hosts. Mayor Jim Witty ex-
pressed the key issues of the Ajax citizens. namely, the
hospital, the landfill site and the Greater Toronto Area
council. Once again, my colleagues were exposed to the
same concerns, and now have a much stronger sense of the
issues impacting on all residents of Durham West.
Our final visit was to the Ajax -Pickering Hospital. Chris
Fox, Director of Public Relations, gave us a tour of the
hospital, and dramatically showed my colleagues the
urgent need for immediate hospital expansion. We also met
with the Hospital Board and Chairman, Roily Simons. The
current planning process within the Province regarding
hospital funding was the key topic. Roily emphasized that
relations with the Health Ministry were very positive and
that the planning steps were now moving very quickly. Con-
struction may be witnessed as quickly as August. Although
frustration and impatience has been evident in the past,
Roily stressed that it was not directed towards the Govern-
ment, but rather towards the length of time necessary to
complete the planning. Roily, in fact, indicated that there
was a very positive relationship between me and the board,
and that it was a result of our combined efforts that had
greatly facilitated the overall process.
Once our hospital visit was over, it was past 5 p.m. Donna
:Dickson and Regional Councillor Joe Dickson graciously
hosted our group at their home after the formal events of
the day were finished. My colleagues had started the day at
7:30 a.m., and although they were tired, they were much
wiser to the concerns of Durham West. Their new
knowledge will be very useful to all of us as they input and
supplement on my concerns during future caucus meetings.
I would like to thank them and express my gratitude for

Students do have a desire
to improve eating and exer-

number of reasons do not.

High School Students Bett

Many students need to
change their way d think-
ing about weight. They
understan-
dingneed a betteunderstan-
dingrstan-
ding that their body shape
is probably a insult of what
they eat, or don't eat, and
what exercise they Ciao or
don't do.
March is National Nutri-
tion Month and weight
Watchers is taking the
nutritional and fitness
habits of high school
students seriously. In order
to determine bow students
feel about themselves, par-
ticularly in terms d nutri-
tion and fitness, Weight
Watchers administered the
Weight Watchers National
nMonth-Survey to
approximately 400 high
school students, grades 9
through 12, in Metropolitan
Toronto and surrounding
area -
Trained Weight Wat-
chers leaders have been in-
vited into high schools dur-
ing Nutrition Month to
discuss the results with
students and offer them
guidance with respect to
nutrition and fitness.
"Students are too hard on
themselves as far as
weight goes. Many
students who think they are
overweight don't have a
weight problem at all ac-
cording to accepted
medical and insurance
statistics. This perception
results from how they look
and how they feel about
themselves and what they
think they should weigh,"
says Marie Ludwick, Presi-
tzels nuts at least
twice a week.ri
Mae Ludwick states,
"The results indicate that,
in terms d their needs, the
students we surveyed are
no different from the
thousands of adults who
are Weight Watchers
members. Just like our
members, students need a
better awareness of good
eating habits, a regular ex-
ercise program tailored to
their lifestyle, and an
understanding of what
makes them the way they
are. Thealso also meed peer
group support to encourage
new habits. What a great
number d students need is
more
self -acceptance - to
be easier on themselves...

Many thanks also to everyone who participated in the

enabled my colleagues to experience a very eclectic and
stimulating overview of what makes our area so unique.

"The United Church is a

The United Church's na-
tional character is impor-

time in the life of our coun-
try, national churches such
as ours need to provide oV
portunities for our people
to celebrate their unity.'

Now that warmer weather
has arrived, it seems there's
always some special occa-
sion to celebrate. What bet-
ter way to celebrate it than
with a homemade cake?
Whether it's a birthday, a
bridal or baby shower. or per-
haps just a casual ger-together
of friends over coffee, a deli-
cious cake adds a festive nae.
With surprisingly little ef-
fort and time you can create
a spectacular cake in your
own kitchen.
Start by baking a moist
cake that is easy to handle
and decorate, such as a mi-
crowave cake mix from
Pillsbury. Total mixing and
baking time takes less than
10 minutes. Since chocolate
is a universal favorite, select
the Pillsbury Devil's Food
Microwave Cake Mix. It
comes with its own reusable
microwave pan that is de-
signed exclusively for the
cake mix. While the moist,
thick, cake cools. prepare fill-
ings and toppings described
in these recipes. You'll have
no difficulty cutting this rake
into layers and it won't
crumble when you're spread-
ing on the icing.
The resulting cake will look
as elaborate as those made in
the most exclusive bakeries.
Moreover, these cakes will
deliver the fabulous taste that
their looks promise—some-
thing difficult to predict or
guarantee with some "bak-
ery" cakes.

Executive Summary
TRANSPORTATION
High Speed Rail in the
Quebec -Windsor Corridor
The Premiers of Ontario
and Quebec have jointly
established a task force to
examine the feasibility of

ridor. In a written
response, the board ad-
dresses two key points.

The board seeks further
market studies to deter-
mine the passenger base

Transit Initiatives for
Metro Toronto.
On Apr. 5, the Ontario
Minister of Transportation
announced a $5 billion,
10 -year, transit initiative
for Metro Toronto.
The board, in its review,
supports the need for tran-
sit investment, but states
its belief that emphasis be
placed on lower cost alter-
natives for transit im-
provements. The board
also encourages ap-
propriate action for
Metro's road system which
was not included in this an-
nouncement.
EDUCATION
Federal Post -Budget %b -
mission on Education and
Training
While supportive of the
general thrust of the
government's plans to
reduce the federal deficit,
the board expresses its con-
cern that the very pro-
grams which are critical to
the economic prosperity of
the country may be in
jeopardy. i.e. those per-
taining to education and
training.
The board recommends
that the long-term solution
to easing the national
deficit is through invest-
ment in the delivery of
world-class education and
training systems to all
Canadians.
Efficiesev of Ontario's
Education System
The board expresses its
concern that despite the
high level of spending on
education in Ontario, the

with Rene Soetens, M.P.
On Thurs. May 17th, "The Report of The Special Commit-
tee to Study The Proposed Companion Resolution To The
Meech Lake Accord", was presented to the House of Com-
mons. The Committee is convinced that the only way to
bridge the current impasse over Meech is to listen to what
is being said and felt across Canada. The Committee's
report is largely based on what was heard from 160
witnesses and over 800 written submissions.
The Charest Committee on the Companion Resolution
recommends that Meech Lake be adopted as is, and that ad-
ditions and clarifications be secured through a companion
resolution. The recommendations are phrased very
generally leaving the door open for real negotiations to take
place between the First Ministers. The Committee had 23
recommendations in all, which I will try to discuss briefly.
Senator Lowell Murray, Minister of State for Federal -
Provincial Relations, will be touring the country im-
mediately to determine how this Report has been received
by the Premiers and if there are grounds to hold a First
Ministers Conference. The Committee Report will act as a
catalyst to bring the Ministers together and identifies all of
the issues that should be on the table as well as pointing the
way to resolving the present impasse.
The Committee has recommended that a Companion
Resolution be created in such a way that linguistic duality
and a distinct society are recognized. At the same time, the
distinct society clause will not override the Charter of
Rights, but rather compliment it.
The Committee has also suggested that the roles clause
should not confer power either to the provincial legislatures
or to the federal government, yet not weaken the distinct
society clause. This government has always said that the
affirmation of Quebec's role to promote its distinct identity
is not a grant of legislative power and the Committee
Report confirms this.
It is proposed that the federal government play a key role
in the promotion of linguistic duality. This merely reaf-
firms the existing role of the federal government on this
matter. The New Brunswick proposal is limited to federal
jurisdiction and this is clearly understood by minority
language groups.
Until The Meech Lake Accord is passed, other important
Constitutional questions such as Senate reform are being
left an hold. The New Bruncwick Companion Resolution did
not deal with this issue because it is not a pressing concern
to all provinces. However, New Brunswick has attempted
to address this priority through a sunset clause for the
amending formula as they believe that Senate reform is
also of fundamental importance to Canada.
If anyone would like a copy of the Report, please contact
my office at 686.0432.
The Meech Lake Accord has stirred up the emotiorss of
Canadians from east to west. Never before has this been
more clear than with the recent departure of three
Members of Parliament from the Conservative caucus, all
of whom were staunchly opposed to the contents of the
Charest Committee Report. The decisions of these M.P.'s to
quit the cauda is deeply regrettable. There is no doubt in
my mind that they served their constituents, and all Cana-
dians, to their utmost ability during their tenure. However.
as the Prime Minister has said, you either are a P.C. or you
are not. There is no room for separatists in the Federal
Government.
Having clearly stated my position on this matter, I would

BLOCK PARENTS
Canada Trust has put out an informative pamphlet on the
Block Parent Program that I picked up at the Pickering
Library. A Block Parent is any responsible adult who cares
enough about the well being of children and other persons to
volunteer his or her home as a safe refuge when a need
arises. A Block Parent sign in the window lets children in
distress know that a Block Parent is home to provide a safe
haven. And even when there is no cause for concern, the
Block Parent sign can act as a deterrent to potential of-
fenders who can quickly conclude that the neighbourhood
has its own safety support system.
If you are interested in being a Block Parent, pick up one
of the brochures, fill it out and mail or bring it to your
nearest Elementary School, your police force or the
manager at any office of Canada Trust Realtor.

like to turn my attention to the behaviour of those outside
Quebec. In my opinion, many English -Canadians are
behaving in a manor which is grossly out of line with reali-
ty. As constitutional tensions have risen. so too has anti -
Quebec sentiment. Calls of "let them separate" can be
heard in Ontario Riding as can other foolsih statements. If
this careless and anti -Canadian attitude persists, those who
speak of it, may just get their way.
1 am confident that those who call for a divided Canada
would be just as pleased with the economic realities of a
separate Quebec. In one day alone, with the resignation of
Lucien Bouchard, the Canadian dollar dropped over one
cent on international [Hooey markets. It was only with Bank
of Canada intervention aimed to prop up the dollar that it
rebounded slightly. To ensure further devaluation does not
occur. Bank of Canada officials were forced to raise in-
terest rates. Simultaneously. sly. foreign investors have
become apprehensive about investing in Canada.
It is about time that those who truly love this country
start speaking up in opposition to the calls for a divided
Canada. Confederation was the coming together of English
and French-speaking Canadians and at that time, none of
the Fathers of Confederations said that it would be easy
building a country in which both English and French were
spoken. Together we can prove that it is possible to live
together in one, strong. united country.
On another note, amendments to the proposed abortion
legislation were brought before the House this week and all
of the amendments were subsequently defeated. Bill C-43,
an Act respecting abortion, had its final vote on Tuesday,
May 29th. I supported the bill, as after extensive consulta-
tion with my constituents, I believe that a compromise is in
the best interests of Ontario Riding.
