July 4, 1990 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Our Canada Day! by Bob Watson July 1st 1990 was a great Canada Day despite the efforts of Quebec politicians to make it otherwise! Of course, the group of Hull, Quebec people turned their backs on the Queen of Canada and booed, but they don't represent the majority of French-speaking Canadians. In North York a Wild West style of celebration attracted some crowds but it was Scarborough which turned out thousands to watch the annual Canada Day parade - the largest annual Canada Day parade in Canada! Of course, the daily papers, radio stations and even Agin - court's CFTO-TV ignored Scarborough once again and con- centrated on scenes at Kew Beach's swim clad enjoyment of the sunshine. We Canadians. not being loud mouthed about our citizen- ship and loyalty to our country, have shown in two world wars that most of us respond very quickly in times of emergency. One million Canadians out of our 12 million population were in our armed forces in World War II to stop Hitler. What we appear to lack today is a really good person to give leadership to our country, to stir up that national feel- ing and lead us into better times ahead. So far most of us feel, we believe, that Clyde Wells, Premier of New- foundland, seems like the right man. To correct our current problem at Ottawa, we believe the P.C. caucus should ask Mulroney for his resignation as Prime Minister and replace him with another member of the caucus until the next election. It would be nice to have a Prime Minister who isn't from Quebec so that the emphasis in our dear country is not all slanted to that province. Vive le Canada libre' Letter To The Editor Language Freedom To The Editor: y is the same thing as 'French -only' sign laws. th are reactiornalr It conjures up an image of two children. each clutching his own toy, each unwilling to share with the other. I think Canadians are bigger than that. The issue demands that reason prevail. The controversy does. however. provide an opportunity to ask our parliament -once again -to revamp our Official Langauges Act. It should be abundantly clear to Ottawa by now (as it is indeed to average Canadians), -that language cannot be legislated. It should be equally clear, that they can't legislate tolerance. There is a third option -much better than 'only' laws -or of- ficial bilingualism a third option which not only recognizes Canada's multi-ethnic heritage, but it's also cheap. Our Charter of Rights and Fieedmons states clearly that Canadians are guaranteed "freedom of expression". Com- mon sense should tell us that our laws should reflect this. Common sense should tell us what we need is a Freedom of Language Act. I Instead, we have 'official bilingualism' with a burgeoning bureaucracy to promote it.) Freedom is cheap. It offers recognition only, and all the freedom necessary to use whatever language we so loose. It does not hyphenate Canadians. It does not bequeath of- ficial status. It offers equal opportunity. It is unequivocably just and fair. It is tolerant. It is easily understood. And -it re- quires no bureaucracy -it costs nothing to promote. Governments should not try to legislate language. It is a freedom. Canadians should demand nothing less that that our laws reflect that. I want to hear from Canadians who agree. Together we can ask Ottawa to apply a little old-fashioned common sense to a volatile issue. In the Canadian tradition, we the people, should not expect Ottawa to come to its senses on its own. I am willing to start the ball rolling. I want to hear from you. My address is: "FREEDOM Betty Maxwell. Box 1958, Neepaw•a '_Manitoba. ROJ 1H0. Let's stand up for Canada.

(Photo - Bob Watson I Strengthen Heritage Act Comprehensive new legislation to strengthen and revise Ontario the Onto heritage Act will be drafted, Christine Hart, Minister of Culture and Communication, has announced. A 10 year agenda for achieving a series of goals that en- compass a newvision of heritage was unveiled as the minister released the final report of the Ontario Heritage Policy Review, entitled "A Strategy for Conserving On- tario's Heritage". "We have reviewed the various forms heritage takes: modern and traditional architecture, folklore and natural Landscapes are just a few examples," said Ms. Hart. "A fundamental element limbs these resources together - each of them tells u> something about who we are. "In a world of rapid technological and social change, heritage is the link between our past and our future. It is an expression of our collective experience and a guide to our ongoing development," the minister said. The Heritage Policy Review identified five goals that the government will work to achieve in co-operation with stakeholder organizations and concerned individuals: To foster awareness that our heritage is vital to our suc- cess as a people. particularly by putting more emphasis on the interpretation and promotion of heritage resources. To strengthen provincial government leadership by un - proving co-ordination among the 15 ministries with an im- pact on heritage. To empower Ontario communities to undertake high quality heritage conservation by strengthening their decision-making role and integrating heritage considera- tions into local planning processes. To stimulate private sector involvement by providing in- centives for individual property owners and corporate in- terests and promoting heritage tourism. To guarantee access to the latest heritage knowledge and information by supporting education and research and by improving communication within the heritage sector. The development of new heritage legislation will be ac- complished through a consultation process that began to- day with a briefing session for 48 provincial organizations, ranging from traditional heritage groups to municipal, con- struction and tourism interests. The same groups will be in- vited to participate in a two-day workshop in Juane to pro- vide feedback on these legislative proposals. To ensure that Ontario's heritage policy continues to evolve as needs change and new priorities emerge, the Ministry of Culture and Communications will create an an- nual Heritage Policy Forum to monitor progress and establish future directions each year. The Heritage Policy Review was launched in 1967, and in- volved public meetings across the province, written sub- missions, extensive discussions with government ministries and agencies, and direct consultation with pro- vincial organizations representing nearly 2,000 local heritage groups. DAVID SOMERVILLE Canada Needs Direct Democracy In a bizarre twist, it seems that Canadian politicians could learn something about democracy from Soviet Presi- dent Mikhail Gorbachev. Mr. Gorbachev is reportedly planning to hold a national referendum so that Soviet citizens will have the opportunity to vote on his proposed, sweeping economic reforms. Says one prominent Soviet government official: "If the program is not approved, it is my opinion that the government should resign." An obvious question arises from this. If the Soviet govern- ment, until recently in the grip of totalitarians, can hold a referendum why can't the Canadian government? Imagine how much more democratic this country would be if the government allowed the Canadian people to vote directly on such crucial national issues such as free trade, the Goods and Services Tax and the Meech Lake Accord. Unfortunately, our leaders do not seem to trust Cana- dians to make decisions through referendums. Indeed, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney recently said that referen- dums "are not the Canadian way" What the prime minister really meant was, "That's not my way„ Referendums and other forms of direct democracy transfer political power to citizens. Referendums also strengthen the democratic process. If voters know that they can control the law -snaking process in this mariner, they will invariably be more willing to participate. The apathy and mistrust which characterize the attitudes of Canadians toward the political process will evaporate. Other countries make wide use of referendums. In Switzerland, for instance, all federal legislation must be submitted to a public referendum for direct approval by the people. Referendums are also used extensively m several American states and m Australia. A direct democracy tradition also exists here in Canada, Brian Mulroney's comment notwithstanding. A national plebiscite was held on the issue of military conscription in 1942 and in 1990, Quebec held a plebiscite on the question of sovereignty association. Newfoundland has a provision for provincial referendums and Premier Clyde Wells may use it to decide the Meech Lake Accord issue there. For the most part however. Canadian politicians have jealously guarded their powers and have been unwilling to give the voters a voice between elections in the decision making process. That's why we are getting the GST even though eight of ten Canadians oppose it; that's why we do not have capital punishment even though the vast majority of Canadians support it and that's why the government is pushing Meech Lake even though it had no mandate from the people to amend the constitution. This type of elitist government cannot go on. Power must be restored to the people and direct democracy is the best way to do it. Canada's politicians should dare to place as much faith and power in the hands of citizens as Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev! Here and There Largest Drop in Home Sales Canada's 25 major centres chronicled a 23.9 percent decline in residential sales compared to volumes reported during the same month in 1969, says The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). Numerically, 13,407 homes traded hands during the month, 4,221 fewer than the 17,626 transactions reported the year before. STATFACTS The larger the homeowner's income, the higher the amount spent to repair or renovate. Where the owner's in- come was less than $15,000 in 1968, the average amount spent was MS. Where owner income was $70,000 or more, that average jumped to $2,934. Work done under a formal contract involving labour or both labour and materials accounted for 64% of all repair and renovation expenditures in 1968. In the other 36%, materials were purchased separately by the household. Owners in the 35 to 44 age group were the single largest category of spenders, accounting for 30% of all repair and renovation expenditure. It's impossible to go far in Canada without r nriing into water, salt or fresh. No wonder that boating for pleasure has long been a favourite pastime. Here are some Statistics Canada facts about boats and boating. About 15% ( more than I million) of all Canadian households owned a pleasure boat of some sort-cnriser down to canoe -in 1989, according to Statistics Canada survev information. i Give A Gift That Lasts All Year! j A year's subscription to one of these newspapers 'f SCARBOROUGH GONCOURT WEST HILL news news news CHECK THE NORTH YORK EAST END ILKi 21N I7ewS news O S Renewal I ONE YOU WANT I Send $12 cheque, money order or VISA number (plus expiry date) to: Watson Publishing Company Limited Iso Milner Ave., Unit 35 Scarborough, Ont.M1S MR Name _ Address -y-- ...snlR„n..n-...e..,..-.v.:,:csMv�ee.•.atsave•..nesA:L.a....,.... a..a.e. �:..,�..-.�..,.- Yv...+s«r..ask�r+r _. _. - --- --.. _. ___ - -- - ----M..a.•.nrSe�► i Scarborough Kinsmen Quit Morningside Fleamarkets The Kinsmen Club of Scarborough announced the end of its Morningside Mall holiday weekend fleamarkets. The Kinsmen Club held its first market at Morn- ingside Mall in 1979 and during the past 10 years the markets proved to be very popular with the public and vendors. The markets also helped the Kinsmen raise between $20 to $30 thousand a year for the community. Last year the club was able to purchase, with funds raised from the markets a special bed for a patient at Centennial Hospital suffering from Lou Gehrig's disease and an oximeter for the children's intensive care unit at Centennial Hospital. In addition to these ser- vice projects the Kinsmen were able to sponsor several local sports teams, provide Christmas hampers for 10 needy senior citizens as well as donating $1.000 to the Toronto Star Christmas Fund, $1,000 to The Variety Village Christmas Fund, $500 to The Children's Wish Foundation and $500 to The Hospital for Sick Children's Telethon on CFTO. "The Fleamarkets may be over for now," says Fleamarket Chairman Don Graham, "But if we can ob- tain an agreement with another Scarborough mall wishing to donate their parking lots on holiday Mondays and recruit enough new members to help run the markets then we will probably be back with them." "In the meantime though we would like to thank Mor- ningside Mall for donating their parking lot to the Kinsmen for the last ten years and helping us to raise over $2D0,000 for the community. We would also like to thank all our ven- dors who made the markets so popular and naturally we would like to thank the good people of Scarborough who sup- ported us every year,' adds Graham. $12 Million For Schools Technological Education The Ontario Government will spend $12 million this year to renew technological education in 134 schools across the pro- vince, Education Minister Sean Conway has announc- ed. The funding is the first step in the Minister's $60 million, five-year Technological Education Equipment Renewal Fund, which begins in 1990.91, and is designed to restructure technological education in Ontario to reflect the changing economy of the 19805. "It is dear that science and technology are playing an increasingly vital role in our lives as we adjust to the new realities of global com- petition," Mr. Conway said.

This program will assist students to strengthen flexible, adap- table skills in five key areas: communications, construction, manufactur- ing, services, and transpor- tation. School boards will use funds to replace old equip- ment and to purchase new technological systems, in- cluding computer-assisted design ( CAD) and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM), programmable logical coo- trols (PLCs), desktop publishing, and video audio equipment.

Jnly 4, 1899 Dill Watt's Worlds DINNER THEATRE: Stage West Theatre Restaurant is currently presenting its second suc- cessive Neil Simon work; It's familiar, it's friendly and, we think, a winner. Why not? Neil Simon is almost fail proof. They're Playing Our Song is a comedy with music, not a musical comedy -there's a difference -that is pretty well acknowledged to be the story of the former relationship between musi- cian%composers Marvin Hamlisch and Carole Bayer Sager. ( She is now married to Burt Bacarach. ) It is their music that backgrounds the show. Truth to tell it's less than memorable except perhaps for the title song but it's cheery and reasonably cerebral. The strength of the show though, lies in the perfor- mances of the two leads. Shaun Cassidy as Vernon Gersch ( Hamlisch) is a delightful surprise to those who have not seen or heard him for a while. The erstwhile teeny bopper and Hardy Boy has become a commanding young man. He looks a bit like CBC sportscaster Brian Williams and he has the speaking voice of a Craig Stevens. It is his singing voice that is the greatest surprise however. It is splendidly robust and -we mean no harm in saying it - better than that of his late father Jack Cassidy. He delivers his comedy lines well, too. Granted Simon's lines are a pleasure for any performer but they cannot be thrown away and Mr. Cassidy has learned that well. Welcome back to Toronto Mr. C. Yes, we were in the C.N.E. Grandstand au- dience with our youngest daughter when you ap- peared here last. As Sonia Walsk (Sager). Allison Grant approaches the definitive not quite flake. She is flighty but not silly, compassionate but not bathotic, unorganized but brilliant. She too sings well and can riposte Simon with the best. She also has a great bawd, long legged and nubile. Candice Elzinga and Christine Donato fit that physical description too and also do well in the sing- ing and dancing depart - merit as back tip alter voices. Scott Smith and Shawn Wright also sing and dance well in their back up roles and one must admit grudg- ingly. that they are most handsome.

SUMMER THEATRE. Oklahoma! opened last night at The O'Keefe starr- ing John Davidson and it runs only until the end of the week. It's a charming piece of theatre -landmark in its day of course -that has weathered well and is still a delight to see and hear. John Davidson is a per- sonable young man and, we believe, well capable of mastering the Rodgers, Hammerstein score. Readers will realize that has been written in ad- vance. Next week at The O'Keefe, it's Shirley Maclaine in her own show for eight performanpresents in six days. Bypresent:y standards Miss MacLaine is a young woman but she is no longer a young girl and for her to dance so brilliantly and sometimes frenetically for six in eight is one of the marvels of the theatre world. Some tickets are still available as we write this but do not delay.

IN THE CLUBS: T.O.'s newest jazz club Top O' The Senator has now opened We were there on operung night and are pleased to say that it just might become the suc- cessor to Suite 1735 of the dear, deputed and mu chly lamhented Club One Two, ( Allan Lamport. where are you when we need you?) The decor is cunningly simple and the sight lines, pure. The design over all, however, is lineal and rot the best for natural sound. We have an idea, in fact, that it was the walls of the room that made the open- ing artist, singer Betty Carter, sound less than her best. Miss Carter comports herself like Maxine Sullivan, sings like Ma Rainey, has the impact of a Rosetta Howard or Nellie Lutcher .. away from the keyboard. There is a purity of tone to her voice but like so many jazz singers she likes to play the game of hunt the melody with a generous measure of scat thrown in for spice. There's nothing the matter with playing hunt the melody so long as one holds the key. Miss Carter missed a few times. The most glaring exam- ple was during her rendi- tion of the lesser known Cole Porter song Every Time We Say Goodbye. One of the lines in it is "But, how quick the change from major to minor". As writ- ten by Mr. Porter, the key actually changes at that point from major to minor. Miss Carter did not and the impact of the song was missed. She missed as well on What A Little Lovin' Can Do (she should study Anniversaries/Birthdays BOTH WEDDING ANNIVERSARIES Six Scarborough couples are celebrating their Golden Wedding Anniversaries this week.

Office Workers' Health All good business managers today know that a poorly designed office af- fects the health and pro- ductivity of workers. So says chiropractor Dr. George I. Traitses of Market Village Chiroprac- tic in Markham, who warns that factors such as inade- quate ventilation, poor lighting, drafts, noise, and room temperature all directly affect workers' bodies and their ability to focus on tasks. "Of particular interest to chiropractors are the chronic back and neck pain and numerous other musculaskeletal problems that are associated with poor office design," said Dr. Traitses, who treats about 10 new cases of office induced injuries a month. But because designing the ideal workplace is more Properly the job of the pro- fessional ergonomist, he said, chiropractors - rather than duplicating or overstepping the field of ergonomics - have sought to enhance and expand it into the area of functional human biomechanics. "What this means in simpler terms," he ex- plained, "is that chiroprac- tors not only look at how work duties cause injury, but more importantly, at the physical problems that can develop during the per- formance of those tasks due to poorly functioning joints and muscles." This unique approach is important, continued Dr. Traitses, because in spite of the improved design of the workplace and the automation of physically demanding jobs, the number of injuries have continued to climb. Many injuries can be prevented, he said, through a careful of work follo�wedbyby specific conditioning programs tailored both to the in- dividual needs of the worker and to the demands of the job. experts in the field of functional and human biomechanics, chiropractors play a Precise and effective rale in the reduction of the social and economic pro. blems associated with work site injuries."

She's a small cat of about two years of age and is now looking for a responsible, loving person - because she thrives on affection and gives it readi- ly. She's still quite playful, bright and intelligent. With a little patience, adopting adult animals will more readily give you an excellent pet and compaction in your home. Sometimes the young are more susceptible to disease, while the mature animal has built up some ihn- munity.

Sixty-five original colour posters from Canadian Pacific's collection will be on view from June 1st to Jan. 6th, 1991. The posters chronicle 8o years in the history of Canadian Pacific by adver- tising everything from coast-to-coast rail service to cultural exhibitions, Glenn Gould 1988 A fascinating exhibition at the Royal Ontario Museum is "Glenn Gould 1986" which will be on view from June 16 to Sept. 30 and is free with admission to the ROM. A tribute to the art and life of Canada's most reclusive musical enigma, the exhibition takes a close look at the surroundings of the private man. Handwritten scores, books, essays, articles by and about Gould, radio scripts, tapes, concert pro- grams, awards, medals, and an array of assorted personal articles offer a view of Gould as one of Canada's most promirhent artists. The selection of memorabilia chosen in- cludes 150 articles from the Gould Estate. The show was designed by Dr. Helmut Kulhnan, recently retired chief of the Na- tional Libraries Musical Divisiom reunification of families, the war effort, and tourism across the country. The extent of CP's in- volvement in the field of poster art was "an effort unrivalled throughout the world", write Marc Choko and David Jones, co - curators of the exhibition. Many techniques were utilized including engrav- ing, lithography and silk- screen production. The exhibition appears at the Sigmund Samuel Building, a ten minute walk south of the main ROM building at 14 Queen's Park. Admission is free. Wed.

June 19th at Holy Trinity Church in Guildwood Village. Entitled "In the Beginn- ing", the sun, the planets and the volcanoes were some of the characters that unfolded in this amazing drama. Playing a number of parts, some children also portrayed molecules of gases filling up space; some were liquid drops free flowing but shapeless, and some were solids tak- ing a definite shape. "Children can unders- tand the properties of elements if they are allow- ed to act it out and use their bodies to experience what happens," said Cathie St - Cyr, the teacher at Blaisdale. The children in her class use "The Story of the Universe" to excite their imagination and allows them to travel in time and space. This is called "Cosmic Education" and leads them to the study of other disciplines: Astronomy, Geology, Botany, Zoology, Protect Flag Says Hicks Bob Hicks, Progressive Conservative MP Scar- borough East plans to in- troduce as soon as possible the attached legislation in the House of Commons to make it illegal to desecrate the Canadian flag. Mr. Hicks said in an in- terview "the Canadian flag is a symbol of our country and anyone who willfully desecrates it is outwardly demonstrating complete contempt for Canada". Bob hicks has been con- sidering and formulating this bill over the past two or three months. He has close ly monitored the recent U.S. Supreme Court deci- sion to strike down their Senate bill which would have made it an offence to desecrate the U.S. flag. He wishes to proceed, however, with this bill in Canada hoping there will be widespread support both in Parliament and across the country. You are invited to attend an Information Meeting on Chemistry, History and Geography - beginning at the age of six! These sub- jects naturally invite a deeper study of composi- tion, art, music, literature and mathematics. Everything is connected - eveything flows. In other words, school "subjects" are rat isolated, dryly, from each other. "Children are born with a love for learning," says Eleanor Wilson, the principal of Blaisdale. "They would and should have it all their lives. Watching the passing parade of worms, squishy jelly -fish, trilobites, fish, amphibians, reptiles, dinosaurs, mammals and early man, the audience is caught in the enthusiasm and excitement of these young confident children. They were enjoying the act of entertaining their parents, but more impor- tant, they were demonstrating their pas- sion for learning! "The children themselves chose the universe theme for their concert," said Madame St - Cyr. They also painted the scenery, and made their own costumes. Six-year old Darlene Lower, seven-year old Ben Matz and eight- year old Adam Belcham, wrote and narrated the commentary. Blaisdale Montessori School was started in 1969 in Scarborough by Eleanor Wilson. The school now has five locations: three in Scarborough, one in Pickering and one in Ajax. Blaisdale can accom- modate children from ages 18 months to 12 years. For more information about the school call 2WCARE. Archdiocese Celebrates 150 Years The Archdiocese of Toronto will celebrate its 150th anniversary during the year Sept. 29, 1991 to Sept. 29, 1992, it was an- nounced by the Most Rev. Aloysius M. Ambrozic, Ar- chbishop of Toronto recent- ly. "This historic milestone will be observed by a pro- gram of spiritual renewal designed to enrich the faith of all members of the Ar- chdiocese," said the Ar- chbishop. Sept. 29, the opening and closing date of the anniver- sary year. is the feast of St. Michael the Archangel, the patron of the Archdiocese. Rev. James Stephenson, pastor of St. Christopher's Church, Mississauga has been appointed chairman of the organizing commit- tee and advises the year's activities will begin with a liturgical service at St. Michael's Cathedral. Two sub -committees have been designated as follows: Parish activities - Rev. Joseph Shiels, pastor of Corpus Christi Parish. Toronto and Rev. Robert Ouellette, pastor of St. Dominic's Parish, Mississauga: Youth - Rev. Patrick O'Dea, Associate Pastor, St. Timothy's Parish, Willowdale. A competition to design an appropriate logo is be- ing organized for the parishes and schools under the direction of Leo Dupuis, Director of the Catholic High School Commission. The Archdiocese of Toronto was created as a diocese by Pope Gregory XVI, Dec. 17, 1841 with the Most Rev. Michael Power as its first bishop. A native of Halifax, Nova Scotia and the first English-speaking bishop born in Canada, Bishop Power started construction of St. Michael's Cathedral in 1845. It was completed in 1898 and consecrated on September 29 by Bishop Ig- nace Bourget of Montreal. Bishop Power did not live to see the Cathedral com- pleted. He died of typhus in 1847 after he had brought the last rites of the Church to an elderly woman seriously ill with the disease. On March 18, 1870 the Diocese of Toronto was made an Archdiocese by Pope Pi us IX and the Most Rev. John Joseph Lynch was appointed Archbishop. In its 150 years, the Ar- chdiocese has been led by 11 bishops and or ar- chbishops including two cardinals: James Charles Cardinal McGuigan and Gerald Emmett Cardinal Carter. There are 215 parishes in the Archdiocese to serve an estimated 1.4 million Catholics. Assisting the Ar- chbishop and three aux- iliary bishops are over 900 diocesan and religious priests, 950 sisters. 135 per- manent deacons and 90 brothers. The Archdiocese covers an area of some 13,000 square kilometres within the following approximate boundaries: North Severn Falls - Severn River; South. Lake Ontario: East, Oshawa - Port Perry; West. Clarkson - Coll- ingwood.

Millions For Street Lig hts Ontario Hydrowill spend 530 million to help install energy efficient streetlights in communities all across Ontario, Presi- dent and CEO Robert Franklin announced recently at the Interna- tional bighting Exposition in Toronto. -There was excellent response to our streetlight conversion pilot project," Franklin told delegates at the conference. "For uxvn- tives totalling $1.9 million we achieved a saving of 4500 kilowatts of electnci- ty in our two test areas. Based on these results, we've expanded the pro- gram to include all of On- tario..' Over the next four years Hydro will be offering $30 million in incentives to help Ontario communities pay part of the cost of changing existing streetlighting to more energy efficient lights. "Our target for this pro- gram is to save more than 40.000 kilowatts of electricity -enough to supp- ly the monthly peak for about 9,000 customers," said Franklin. This new initiative, together with other energy efficient lighting pro- grams, will help reduce power consumption and make Ontario a more electrially-efficient pro- vince.

To date the program has attracted more than 1,200 customers and Hydro has contributed $5 million to help offset capital costs of replacing lighting. In 1990, customer savings of 30,000 kilowatts of electricity are expected. "These initiatives benefit our customers from a very important business stand- point: by reducing their bottom line," said Franklin. "They also benefit the environment by deferring the need for new generating stations."

Metro Home Composting Program Ready Again For the second year in a row, Metro Toronto Council has approved the distribu- tion of 20,000 home com- posters to Metro Toronto residents. The goal of the Home Composting Pro- gram is to encourage backyard composting of kitchen and yard wastes by Metro householders. Residents may choose one of three types of com- posting units - the Ecolyzer, the Soilsaver or the City Gardener - which come complete with in- structions on how to turn leaves, fruit and vegetable peelings, grass clippings, coffee grinds and more into a dark nutrient -rich soil conditioner called com- post, or humous. It is estimated that up to one for Women will receive $21,648 to promote the in- dependence and self- sufficiency of senior women by producing a comprehensive and infor- mative publication to in- clude topics such as development of courses and curriculum relevant to older women, education as a choice in retirement, ageism in the classroom, seniors' experiences as students and'or teachers, older women as mentors and increasing self-esteem and independence through education. The Seniors In- dependence Program is designed to promote the quality of life, well-being and independence for Canada's seniors while recognizing the invaluable contribution that they make to today's society. Projects funded under the program may be local, regional or national in scope.

Projects funded under the program may be local, regional or national in scope. third of household waste can be composted. Each of the three models offered this year produces varying amounts of humotu and also differs in the degree of owner par- ticipation required. As a result, residents will be able to choose the unit that best suits their meds. Costs for the program will be shared by the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment. The savings to residents will be substantial as each unit will cast only $20. The com- posters will be available for purchase in early July and will be distributed throughout the summer months, as long as quan- tities last. Residents of Metropolitan Toronto, who wish to participate in the program, may have their names added to a reserva- tion list to be eligible for their choice of composter. Once their reservation has been confirmed, residents will receive a pre-printed order form detailing ar- rangements for payment and distribution of the units. Reserved units may be picked up at either the Duf- ferin or Commissioners Street Transfer Stations. Delivery can also be ar- ranged at a nominal charge - Homeowners residing in Metro Toronto may add their names to the reserva- tion list by contacting: Metropolitan Toronto Home Composting Pro- gram, 35 Vanley Crescent, Downsview, Ontario, M3J 2B7, Telephone: 392-9585. Only one composter will be allowed per household. Residents who received a unit last year are not eligi- ble for this year's program. 0-ei+ r - The Canadian Red Crass Soc,etv .iii}i'f.•::: Yiiii?:• :• i::•:i is+..: 10th.

First the triumphs. Willowdale's David Em- pnngham qualified his No. 45 Motomaster Camaro in 4th spot in the Players Inc. GM Series. Former mentor and team-mate Richard Spenard, the "Master of Mosport", had pole position with Mississauga's Rob Fellows starting 2nd. But at race start Empr- ingham charged into the lead with Spenard well back in the early laps. As the race progressed Spenard eventually passed Emprintgham for the lead and it looked like that was that, but the younger driver was not intimidated by his teacher and repass- ed Spenard to hold on for a well-deserved win by a close margin of .130 seconds. That win puts Empr- intgham 3rd overall in the points after 4 races with a total of 394 to Spenards 402. Fellows finished 3rd but re- mains 2nd in points with 396. Still another Willowdale driver, Robin Buck, finished 4th and has 371 points; it's shaping up to a teal battle this season. And still with the trium- phs although not a win, Scarborough's Matt Couveart missed Saturday's qualifying to at- tend a wedding and so had to start at the back of the 25 -car grid in the Yokohama F1200 event. But no problem' Couveart passed every car on the track in the 15 -lap event except two, Toronto's Don Robertson who won it and Niagara Falls' Jay Mason who finished 2nd. A few more laps and who knows.. Couveart received " Driver of the Weekend" honours for his efforts and a $250 cheque. But now for the despair, and it happened to two local drivers in the Jos. Louis i Honda; Michelin Championship series. Lee T. Hobbs was 3rd overall in the series after three events, and rookie Paul Maskos was 5th. Hobbs qualified 3rd this weekend, and Maskos was back in 11th, but both had high hopes for this race.

The cost of a daily vehi- cle entry permit increases from $3 to $4. A four-day pass will now cost $9, up from $6 and the cost of an annual pass rises to $25 from 320. Buses will now pay a dai- ly commercial rate of $40, up from $30 last year. An- nual bus permits will in- crease from $300 to $400. Park user fees help defray the cost of providing park services, yet less than 15 percent of the cost of operating national parts is recovered through user fees. The remaining amount is paid from general tax revenues. The entrance fees apply to all motor vehicles enter- ing a national park, except for vehicles commuting through parks that are crossed by a provincial or national transportation ca. dor. Changes to other Cana- dian Parks Service fees, in- dudmg those for camping in national parks and lockage on historic cans' , will be announced in com- ing weeks. Our 40th.

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.

During the last two decades, Canadians have become in - c reasingly aware of the importance of maintaining both a strong economy and a healthy natural environment. To help satisfy these goals, Canadian governments established environmental assessment processes. Environmental assessment is a systematic method of identifying potential environmental consequences and their impact on people, their livelihood and way of life. By identi- fying adverse environmental affects before they ocet>r, plans can be altered so that unwanted environmental im- pacts are minimized, or ideally eliminated. On June 18th, the Environment Minister, Robert de Caret announced a major package of reforms to the federal environment assessment process. The major feature of the reform package is the proposed Canadian En- vironmental Assessment Act. The Act will, for the first time, entrench in legislation the federal government's obligation to integrate environmental considerations into its project planning and implementation processes. The Environmental Assessment Act together with other elements of the newly introduced reform package, will create an environmental assessment process that is more powerful in its impact on decision -staking than any other in the world. The proposed Environmental Assessment Act will in- crease the government's accountability to the public for en- vironmental assessments. The new Act will also improve public participation, clarify the legal process by improving procedures and assigning clear responsibilities to par- ticipants and focus resources on projects that require the most attention. To support these initiatives, more funds and staff will be allocated to environmental assessment throughout the federal government. Approximately $100 million per year will be added to the current $50 million spent annually on Environmental Assessment. In addition, public participation is strengthened throughout the process. The reform package consists of 3 key elements: new environmental assessment legislation, a new process for policy assessment and a program for fun- ding participants in public reviews. Good environmental assessment means good planning and good planning means good business and a better environment for all Canadians. coconut I 1h,p lime juice 45 mL I rh,p ,off ,note 45 mL ` .pro z% coriander R 1 large cMnes 3 garlic larite green 3 setons, cut sp 3 sachet % sleets 3 1 tsp TABASCO* Seat - mLband brand pepper 2 sauce w bole hank„ 2 akinle+, chicken brut. cut in bW iabout 1 1,215750 tit In container of blender or food processor combine cream of coconut. lime juice. soy wucc. coriander, garlic. green onions, anchovies and TABASCO pepper sauce.
