June 17, 194'3 Opinion a page for expression for you and us A Wasted Report b_v Bob Watson The latest waste of our tax dollars was the investigation and report given to Premier Bob Rae by Stephen Lewis on racism in Metro Toronto. Almost am• citizen with the dialogue and connection that Mr. Lewis has could have come up with a report about racism as %%v all know that some racism exists here, as it does over most of the world. We do not need any legislation giving visible minorities an edge in job finding. Hiring should be made strictly on ability and the applicant's qualities. Let's face it there is a trend among young people these days to form gangs and thus attack institutions or people for the fun of it. or robberies. The answer would appear to be the matter of discipline. We have with new rules and legislation taken power over students at high school away from the teaching staff. Parents no longer appear to dish out rules and discipline to their youngsters as much as the generation before. To counteract the latest trend in youth gangs we believe it is time for more discipline and direction by parents. teachers and government. Parents, schools and govern- ments should issue the orders for young people in their teens and 30's. Doesn't Agree To The Editor: Bob Watson's article in the Mav 13 edition warrants some feedback. Watson condemns "the Dudley Laws gang" for demonstrations he feels have incited greater racial conflit t w Toronto. He may not be alone in his interpretation. However, his advice that Toronto is basically racism -free and that immigrants who feel differently should effectively keep quiet or "go back home" to "their owls kind" is cer- UuWv not in keeping with the spent of race relations which those of us w the settlement multicultural field are trying to foster. I unite Mr. Watson to explore the extent of racism in Tolfwko from the perspective of those to whom it is visible and part of daily life: newcomers and non-white Ca naidians themselves Perhaps with awareness and acknowledge- ment of the problem can come the will to solve it. And if one does not agree with the approach of the louder agitators for change. there are many other means through w•tnch we can work together, and are working, to bring about the racial harrrtoav we desire. Sheila Strong Service %Langer Scarborough Cultural Interpreter Sm -ice Ombudsman Report In her annual report for 1991-9L' tabled on June 8th in the Legislative Assembly, provincial Ombudsman, Roberta Jamieson said that trends in public attitude toward both ac- n.tsm and apathy with respect to government operations had created new• challenges for her work. Although Roberta Jamieson reported handling over 33.10) Ingtunes and complaints from the puibiic and Members of the Assembly. she said that for the second straight year. it was not necessary for the Ombudsman to seek the intervention of the Legislature in order to have her recommendations Implemented. Site credits this to non - adversarial resolution of Issues at an early stage and in- creased awareness in governmental organtzatioos of the importance of the Ombudsman's involvement. The report illustrates the role of the Ombudsman through over 50 case summanes revealing a wide vanety of Issues brought to the Ombudsman for resolution. Other sections deal with special investigations, jurisdiction, and other details of the Om- budsman's activities and operations. Roberta Jamieson set out in her message her objectives relating to public education, special problems in Ontario's north country, preventative Ombudsmarship, and the need for a federal Ombudsman. She also comments in the report on the role of the Om- budsman.

Queen's Park Report by Dr.Bob Frankford M.P.P. Scarborough East Changes to the Ontario Labour Relations Act (OLRA) will help create better workplaces and a stronger economy by promoting cooperation and partnerships between labour and management, Scarborough East MPP Bob Frankford said recently. The amendments are the result of an extensive consulta- tion process in 11 communities throughout the province with business, labour, women, unorganized workers, Chamber of Commerce and community groups. The government has made significant changes to more than 20 of its original proposals to reflect the concerns brought forward during this consultation process. Dr. Frankford said the amendments introduced in the Legislature by Minister of Labour Bob Mackenzie demonstrate the government's commitment to update the law to reflect new ::hanger in the workplace and the workforce over the last two decades. "We all know that more women, more members of visible minorities and more part-time employees are in the workforce today than ever before. Unfortunately though, our labour laws haven't kept pace with those changes.- Dr. Frankford said. The OLRA was last amended significantly in 1975. "riot only has the composition of the workforce changed. but the places where people work are changing too," said the MPP. Dr. Frankford said the Act will address many of the labour -relations issues affecting service, retail and financial sector workers. "Traditionally our labour laws have tended to serve men working to large factories. But the fact is our economy is changing. Our labour laws must reflect this change." said Dr. Frankforcf DAWC PJM ERVUJ_E Many of our Members of Parliament seem lo have no sense of shame What else explains Mee way they t•nac-Ally ding b heir gold plated pension plan while more Mian 1 S m.ilia Canesans are unnerrtployed and about 2 million are on weNw*7 BeMve ct or not. hen area e lavish benefits of the MPs' pension plan • MPs can lsave office aher only six years and wernedatefy start coaecang a pens on for We regardess of slime age • The MPs' pensions startat about $ t 8 000 per year • The pennons have unlimited protection against nflaton Retired MPs can take visa - paying government jobs and still receive tat pension payments (double dipping!

June 17, 1192 Bill Watt's Worlds THEATRE: Our customary side bar. On Stage. has been eschew- ed because The Alchemical Theatre of Hermes Trismegistos isn't per- formed on a stage. It begins nightly at midnight in the Great Hall of Union Station. Before leaving our lodg- ings for the premier perfor- mance, we allowed ourself the rare luxury of an even- ing nap. We "shoulda stood in bed"' It•s a good, almost in- spired idea to utilize the grand lines, and risk the difficult acoustic balance, of the Great Hall for the presentation of a dramatic work. The work. however. must deserve it. R. Murray Schafer's Alchemical et al quite simply, doesn't. In fact, rarely will one experience a more sophomoric work of drama and music. The words. sup- posedly metaphysical, are merely confusing: the music assigned to the ex- cellent orchestra con- ducted by Michael J. Baker makes it sound like nothing more or better than Brasil '66 tuning up Allow us please a lengthy digression while quoting from the author's introduc- tion. 'Ile subject dealt with in Hermes Trismegistos is the Chymical Marriage as described in the writings of medieval alchemists. The minerals. w•bose solutions. crysta1U2ti01*. srneltings and burnings fill the alchemists' notebooks. describe the separation and coagulation ( solve et coagula f of chemical substances in the search for precious metals such as gold and silver bee as Jung and others have been able to show, they also refer to the transformation of the soul. suggesting that the real goal of the alchemical process was the discovery of spiritual har- mony. But harmony was not produced without great difficulty " To which one can only add. in igpay atinlay�, oolbay itshay' Even if cor- rect. (and Jung was never "able to show'*,) it can hardly be used as an in- spiration for a work notable only as a monumental waste of Excellent actors are dressed in ridiculous costuming and forced to ut- ter lines so infantile that they seem almost like stu- dent players. It's not their fault; it's simply that the lines and situations are so. . .well, one hesitates to say "stupid" but it's difficult to think of a more appropriate word. The music, as noted earlier, is relentlessly atonal and, one suspects, an embarrassment for the singers. To be fair• they do their excellent best with it and the choral work under Chorus Master Albert Kryw•olt is at least palatable. Is there anything to recommend custom of Hermes T.'. Yes. there is. One suggests that the lighting effects are spec- tacular; ditto for the costuming even though it's ridiculous in concept. Kudos too for the manner in which Director Tom Sokoloski has utilized the Great Hall. Performers are seen and heard from the ceilings, off the wall f literally ) and even ap- proaching within hand's breadth of the audience. Yes, there is novelty in the production and that alone might carry it. But. oh my. the play itself is simply dreadful.

It was to sample a wide array of Newfoundland seafood and launch the second an- nual Newfoundland and Labrador Lobster and Seafood Festival at Stage West. What an evening it was' The Minister was witty and urbane. the food was delicious and the hospitali- ty free flowing. There was great squid jiggin' music by the mess jacketed group called Driftwood and manv found their way to the floor. .to dance. The festival continues at Stage West until June 29th and one fully expects it to be as successful as last year's and everyone will profit. Remember. though, that the Minister responsi- ble for the success of the Newfoundland fisheries was there in person to set it in motion. as was Hazel McCallion. Now, that's leadership. That's hope.

IN PRINT: Summer Meditations by Vaclav Havel ( Alfred A - Knopf -Canada) is his first book as president of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic. It now appears likely to be his last in view of the political upheavals in that beleaguered land. It is too important a book for us to speed read but we have taken the liberty of a scan preparatory to a full review to follow in a later column. We haven't read Mr. Havel previously because we're not fluent in Slovak tongues but if Toronto writer Paul Wilson's translations is as good as it appears to be, then one can definitely attest to his skill and facility with words. Even so, it's not the way in which he writes but rather, what he writes that makes the book such a compellingly important one. Indeed, one need go no further than page 3 to read "The only lost cause is one we give up on before we enter the struggle." That's from Politics, Morality and Civility. Summer Meditations just might be the most impor- tant book you'll read this summer, or any time.

ON RECORD: Trumpeter Herb Alpert first achieved prominence when he formed the 71- juana Brass some 25 years ago. Yes, it was really that long ago. TJB has long since broken up but Herb Alpert is still active musically as well as in the record business. ( He's the A. of A. & M. Records. The M. is Jerry Moss. His latest album -his 32nd we think -is Midnight Sun. It's a winner. On it, Mr. A. takes his licks at some fine old stan- dards. There are the title song, All the Things You Are, In the Wee Small Hours, Mona Lisa and Smile among others. The style here is laid back and lush, somewhat like the snood pieces that Jackie Gleason used to do showcasing Bobby Hackett. Now, make no mistake about it, Herb Alpert is very much his own man and doesn't do a Hackett impersonation. What one bears is his own distinct lip and valve work beautifully backed up by the best of side men and lush strings. Midnight Sun will not we suggest, be wildly suc- cessful in terms of air play, given the blinkered ap- proach of most of today's radio stations, in Canada anyway. It should, however, sell well among those who ap- preciate good music well played. MOVIE NEWS: Batman Returns premieres nationwide this Friday in over 2,000 theatres. The merchandis- ing spin offs have begun already. Warner Brothers and DC Comics have joined forces with American Bank Note Holographics for an un- precedented national anti - piracy hologram campaign for the licensed merchan- dise. Apparently it will assure retailers and consumers that they are buying an authentic licensed product. As well, "it adds an entic- ing value to the product since these high -visual - impact holograms are sure to become collectibles." Ah, show business; 50% show, 50% business. COMMENT: The last and late King of Egypt, Farouk, once stated that one day there would be only four kings in the world; the kings of spades, clubs, diamonds and hearts and ... the King of England. It begins to appear he was only 80% right. How unfortunate that the Monarchy now stands in danger of crumbling because of two women; one a flake, the other an evi- dent nympho. Sad.

New Metro Car Pooling Service In the midst of an era ceras and financial cow straints are foremost on peoples' minds, Metro Toronto is being introduced this month to a new and uoigear service for com- muters that addresses POOLt. as the new ser- vice is called, is the fust company in Canada dedicated to organizing car pools for people who want to get from point A to point B on a regular basis. For a small annual fee, this ser- vice is available for all residents in Metropolitan Toronto and sturonding regions for travelling to and from work, schools, community centres, transit stations and mar. Using a computer data base, POOLit will match up compatible members who not only share the same route and time schedule, but also share interests, likes and dislikes. For ex- ample, non-smokers may pool with non smokers, classical music lovers with classical music lovers and so on. In addition, non - driving members can par- bapate by sharing in the cost of driving and parking with the driving members of their pool. "It is absurd that there are hundreds of thousands of cars stuck in rush hour traffic every day with only one person inside," says POOLit organizer Sylvia Benchimol. "Although it is unrealistic to think that Canadians will completely break off their love affair with the automobile, car pooling is certianly a viable alternative where everybody wins; the com- muter who will save thousands of dollars a year and the environment because of reductions in polluting car emissions." The benefits of car pool- ing and the resulting reduc- tion in the number of cars on the roads are compell- ing, especially when one considers the following: The automobile is the "single greatest con- tributor to air pollution in the city," states the City of Toronto Planning and Deveioprnent Department in their publication Cityplan '91. Each gallon of gasoline burned releases 9 kilograms of carbon diox- ide into the atmosphere along with other pollutants such as hydrocarbons. ox- ides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide. etc. These are the pollutants which pro- duce acid rain, ground level oaone. global warm- ing and high level omooe deplet I has been estimated that owning and driving an automobile costs the owner of an average ..economy" car at least $&065 per year or 42 cents per kilometre. Fewer drivers on the roads mans less conges- tion. This translates into faster commutes, lower gas consumption, less pollution. fewer accidets, more room for bicycles, and less wear and tear on our roads. Also rccoRn. . the need to change our driving habits. Metro is in the process of designating 235 krns of roads with reserved lanes for buses. taxis and car pools during rush haus. Door to door service means increased safety and convenience for the commuter. New College Program Local area networks LANs) will be are of the subjects of a new three- year program in microcomputer analvs1s offered by Scarborough's Centennial College this fall. Networks -which link desktop computers and allow users to cost- effectively share software and equipment -are becom- ing popular in workplaces and LAN expertise is in de- mand, says Graham Leitch, Centennial's pro- gram chairman. Before plunging into LANs, students of the Microcomputer Analyst Co-op program will acquire knowledge in microcom- puter hardware and soft- ware, learn the common operating systems, and receive some practical skills in, for example, hard - disk management. '.It's a tricky program to deliver. Today we may be expounding the wisdom of MS-DOS, only to see the market abandon it by the time our graduates start looking for jobs," says Leitch. "We'll strive to br- tng the latest developments into the classroonn. For- tunately, the coop aspect of the program will help keep students current... Co-op work placement assigns students to one year's worth of paid ex- perience with employers. In preparation for field work, students will gain an understanding of business operations, and will learn analytical and human rela- tions skills. Graduates can expect to Issues Facing Women On Tues. June 23, the In- ternational Department of the YMCA of Metro Toron- to will present Rosemary Brown, speaking on some of the critical issues facing women, in the context of in- ternational development.

A bill that was introduced by Veterans Affairs Minister Gerry Merrithew in the House of Commons last week will recognize these individuals as "Merchant Navy Veterans", and will make them eligible for benefits from Veterans Affairs Canada on the same basis as veterans of the armed forces. An estimated 1,346 Merchant Navy men were killed dur- ing World War 11, and 198 were taken prisoner of war. FUV- nine merchant ships were lost. like the soldiers who "went over the top" in World War 1 and the crews of bomber com- mand in World War 11, our merchant mariners put duty before self, and they have earned the gratitude of all C*na- dians.
