Opinion

for you and us
On Bosnia
by Bob Watson
News reports from far away Yugoslavia - that was that
country's name wasn't it? - are convincing Canadians that
having our troops there is a waste of time and they should be
brought back home.
NATO troops standing around in that country receiving
confinement by Serbians is hardly a worthwhile project. And
having our troops standing by waiting to be killed if the
United Nations approves bombing of the Serbians is hardly a
positive use of our forces.
We believe that a poll of Canadians would vote to bring our
troops back from Bosnia as well as Somalia. They are doing
no good in those countries and are risking their lives
unnecessarily.
Bilingualism
tfy Bob Watson
It has been brought to public attention that "official"
bilingualism federally is costing at least Kit) million a year.
Isn't that a great waste of money? In our country French-
speaking Canadians and English-speaking Canadians are
equal with their language officially and the government does
not have to interfere
But costs, mount when all documents and press releases
are in both languages. We believe French-speaking people
should get their documents and press releases in French only
and English-speaking folks get theirs in English only. It
would save many dollars.
And. of course, our former Liberal government at Queen's
Park put Ontario into the "official" bilingual category as
well resulting in millions of tax dollars going into the waste
bin in Ontario.

Municipal Enumeration
Starts April 25th.
The 1994 Municipal Enumeration begins on Apr. 251h.
The enumeraiton is carried out every three years• in the
same year as the municipal and school board elections and
the information collected is used to prepare up-to-date
voters' lists. The elections will be held this year on Nov. 14th.
The enumeration is being conducted by the Property
Assessment Division of the Ontario Ministry of Finance. The
Ministry will mail a municipal enumeration form to each
household in the province• along with a brochure which
describes the municipal enumeration. tells what the
information will be used for, and shows how to complete the
form.
The municipal enumeration form contains the most up-to-
date information the Ministry has about the people who live
at the residence. This information was obtained in the
previous enumeration in 1991• or during the normal process
of updating assessment records.
The instructions in the enumeration brochure ask that an
adult representing each household check the information,
correct it and complete the form, if necessary: then sign the
form. and return it by May 10th in the pre -paid envelope. The
form should be returned even if all the information is correct.
In addition to voters' lists, the information collected will be
used to direct school taxes: to identify English-language and
French -language school electors: to prepare lists of potential
jurors: to assist municipalities and school boards with their
planning: to prepare the Ontario Population Reports: and to
update assessment records.
The municipal enumeration will be supported by a
province -wide advertising campaign• which also begins on
Apr. 25th. This campaign includes radio and print
advertisements. and encourages people to complete and
return their form by May loth.

Sees Encouraging Signs
Of Economic Renewal
There have been same hopeful sifpnns recently that the
government's plan for economic renewal is working. Many
Canadians were very encouraged by the recent statistics an
the unemployment rate.
Statistics Canada reported that Canada's unemployment
rate fell to 10.6, in March. a dramatic decline from a rate of
II.I% in February. This brings us to a two year low• in the
unemployment rate. but what is even more remarkable is
that it was the largest monthly decline in the unemployment
rate in ten years.
Obviously there are many factors that influence these
figures But 1 think it's fair to sav that there is a new sense of
hope in Canada, a new confidence in our economy.
There has been other good news recently. Statistics
Canada has reported an increase in the help -wanted index,
meaning that more employers are advertising new jobs. The
Royal Bank of Canada has also released optimistic
predictiri r on the ecoxxnv. The bank predicts increased
growth in GDP• increased consumer spending and housing
starts. and decreased unemployment. Inflation and interest
rates '.Meanwhile. the International Monetary Fund has also
predicted strong growth for the Canadian economy - stronger
even that the level predicted in our recent Budget.
The Dept. of Finance has announced that the federal deficit
dropped 24% in February compared to the same period last
year While most of the drop was due to lower debt charges.
the Finance Department also reported a surprising
improvement in revenue due to an improving economy.
This good news confirms that we are well on the road to
meeting our deficit reduction targets. Our February Budget
confirmed the government's firm commitment to its election
promise of reducing the deficit to three percent of GDP
within three vears.
As our infrastructure projects begin across the country, I
am hopeful there will be more good news soon. I am very
optimistic about Canada's economic future. Roval Bank
chief economist Edward Neufeld recently said that the
fundamentals of the Canadian economy are looking better
than they have in many years.
We have a realistic• specific plan for economic renewal•
based on our commitment to job creations. economic growth,
and deficit reduction. We will stick to our plan. I am
convinced it offers the best opportunity for economic
prosperity for all Canadians. Above all. we want to offer hope
for a brighter future to the Canadian people. This is our
challenge as Canada prepares to enter the 21st century.

Ontario Government Steps Up
War Against Welfare Fraud
I believe our welfare system is one of the best in the world.
It's designed to help people who are in need. For some time.
our government has been working to make sure that only
people who are eligible for welfare benefits receive them.
I want to emphasize that the vast majority of welfare
recipients are honest claimants. Unfortunately. a small
percentage of claimants take advantage of our caring
system, and we're pursuing these abusers more vigorously.
In 1992, we hired 450 more staff to find fraudulent claims. We
have been working with municipalities and providing them
with funding to help crack down on fraud.
The next step to prevent abuse is to re-examine every
welfare case handled by the province and municipalities. 270
new specially -trained staff will be hired to do this
investigation. $10 million this year, and $10 next year will go
to municipalities to help them fight welfare fraud. (About
half of all welfare recipients in Ontario have their cases
administered by local municipalities.)
If it's found clients don't live up to our requirements their
benefits will be reduced or eliminated. To make sure
cheaters aren't claiming social assistance benefits from any
other .jurisdiction. Ministry of Community and Social
Services staff will work closely with municipalities, other
provinces, the federal government and the police as
necessary. Where evidence of fraud is found. charges will be
laid.
This investigation won't affect the benefits which honest
claimants will continue to receive. We expect to save more
than $60 million next year and $90 million in 199.5-95 as a
result of these investigatirxts.
We'll save another $49 1 million a year through changes to
benefits paid to couples. changes to shelter allowances, basic
utility benefits and boarder charges. More savings will come
from measures already in place. We intend to recover all
overpayments which were made over many previous years.
We're not going to cut holes in our social safety net, but we
are making it more effective. We're providing alternatives to
welfare through programs like ,jobsOintario Training. And we
continue to develop new measures in our reformation of the
Ontarin social assistance system.

Scarborough General Hospital Leads The Way In Eye Donations
In its short 38 year
history, Scarborough
General Hospital has
established itself as a pace-
setter and a leader in the
health care industry. From
innovative care delivery to
responsible resource
management, the hospital
has maintained a commit-
ment to improving the
health of people in the com-
munity.
The hospital's number
one priority continues to be
the provision of outstan-
ding care and service;
however another initiative
in which the hospital has
taken on a leading role is in
the area of eye donations.
"We are the leading
hospital in Ontario for eye
donations,.. says Dr. Ray-
mond Stein. Chief of
Ophthalmology. The
hospital contributes ap-
proximately 30 eyes per
month to the Ontario Eye
Bank. "In 1993, our hospital
had the highest percentage
of eye donations in nine out
of twelve months in
Metropolitan Toronto, an
ccomplishment we can all
be very proud of," says Dr.
Iry Feferman, Chief of
Emergency Medicine.
Dr. Feferman and his
staff in the Emergency
Department have made a
concerted effort to alert pa-
tients' families of the need
for eye donations. Through
their efforts, literally hun-
dreds of patients have
regained the precious gift
of sight.
One such individual is
Carla Steiner, a registered
nurse in the Emergency
Department at Scar-
borough General, who
underwent a corneal
transplant theree years
ago. Steiner had been
diagnosed with
"Keratoconus", a condi-
tion which causes a
gradual change in the cur-
vature of the cornea,
resulting in distorted vision
and gradual deterioration
of the eye.
"Prior to the transplant,
I was legally blind in one
eye," she says. "If I hadn't
undergone the transplant,
my life would have chang-
ed dramatically. I would
have lost my driver's
licence and I probably
would not have been able to
continue my career in nurs-
ing .,
Steiner's life did change
dramatically, for the better
that is. Four hours after
undergoing surgery in
February of 1991, she had
an improvement in her vi-
sion. Today, three years
after her surgery, Steiner
remains extremely
grateful to the family of the
eye donor. "It's a wonder-
ful thing to donate organs,
whether it is an eye or
another vital organ."
Steiner's personal ex-
perience has not only

National Credit Education Week
W Pbil Etter. F.C.I.. F.C.G.
All phases of the custom
of buying an cJre�ditt will be
publicly discussed and
examined during National
Credit Education Week
which will be observed
throughout Canada and the
United States over the
period Apr. 24 -30th.
The objectives of
National Credit Education
Week are to, quote:
"encourage the broadest
use of Consumer Credit,
consistent with sound
business principles and the
welfare of the community
and to counsel and protect
consumers against the
tragedy of going into debt
beyond their ability to pay...
It is all too apparent that
there is a high incidence of
irresponsible credit usage
in Canada which has been
exacerbated by the rigors of
our recession battered
economy.
The sponsors of National
Credit Education Week are
the Credit Association of
Canada, Associated Credit
Bureaus, International
Credit Association and
Credit Professionals Inc.
The citizens of every
community where National
Credit Education Week is
observed should certainly
benefit from media focus on
the important role of
Consumer Credit in our
society.
The merit of personal
credit cannot really be
evaluated. It is more than a
temporary substitute for
cash. It is a practical
convenience which, when
used intelligently and
properly, serves as a
symbol of integrity and a
source of personal pride.
The prudent use of credit
bre many of the good
things of life within reach of
those who might never
enjoy them if they had to
defer each purchase until
they saved the necessary
cash.
In essence Consumers
throughout Canada and the
United States are being
urged to guard their credit
as a sacred trust on the
grounds that the
availability of credit allows
for a great measure of
flexibility in Purchasing

"As more and more em-
phasis is being placed on
waste minimization, waste
management practises are
changing and waste
disposal sites no longer ac-
cept certain items of
waste," states Snmeltzer,
adding that this has
resulted in debris being
dumped on vacant lots,
along remote lanes, and in
rural and wilderness areas.
Pitch -In Week, according
to its organizers, plays an
important and ever-
increasing role in helping
provincial, regional and
local governments deal
with debris which has been
deliberately or thoughtless-
ly moped by people who
don't appreciate the effect
their actions have on
wildlife, the environment
and tourism.

The Mind With et al is an

Briefly, The Mick is a

the local movie house for
the showing of his x rated

Not so: their performances

Rodgers and Hammers-
tein's The King and I con-
tains the song Is A Puzzle-
ment. It might well have
been included in the cur-
rent production of their The
Sound Of Music at the
Limelight Supper Club. It
truly "is a puzzlement..
how such a dreadfully am-
bitious but ambitiously
dreadful production is ac-
tually quite enjoyable.
There are so many faults
that to include all of them
would be to indulge in
diatribe. Some, however.
include ridiculous hair styl-
ing, laughable costuming
(in a few instances), dread-
ful direction and. worst of
all, two leads who are quite
simply not up tothe
n
demads of their roles. The
female lead doesn't sing
well and is only a marginal-
ly accomplished actress.
The mak lead can neither
sing nor act.
And yet. and yet. this
Sound of Music is quite eu-
joyabie and The Column
believes it knows why.
For starters, there is the
work itself. Our memory
might be failing us but we
believe it was the last col-
laboration of Rodgers and
Hammerstein before the
death of the latter. For
many it is their best. The
songs have long since
become more than mere
standards: they are now
beloved. And the book by
Lindsay and Crouse is one
of their better ones.
As well, there are

children in the cast. It's a
show biz maxim that
children can ensure suc-
cess. In this production the
seven youngsters who play
the von Trapp children are
exquisite. To be honest, one
would have to be dreadfully
hard hearted not to weep
gentle tears at the sound of
children singing. Their
voices are sweet and un-
sullied by the demands of
adulthood. And, they
believe in what they're
:singing.
Continuing to be honest,
it might not be the case that
these seven singers are in-
deed exquisite but given
the shortcorruings of the
rest of the production, they
seem so.
You will enjoy The Sound
of Music at The limelight
and your custom is recom-
mended. But. oh how much
better it deserves to be'.
POTATIONS:
Given Canada's dreadful
government at all levels
since 1967, it's little wonder
that we're polarizing into
the historical social strata
of the old world. There will
soon be no middle class.
only the upper and lower.
the rich and the poor. the
leisured and the working.
The only good thing that
remains from the country's
more or less democratic
beginning is that a member
of the working class can
still, for the time being
anyway. work his or her
way out of it in the worlds
of entertainment and
hospitality.
So, it pleasured us when
we were empanlled to
judge at the 29th annual
Bacardi -Martini and Rossi
Gran Prix competition for
Canadian young
bartenders at George
Brown College of Hospitali-
ty.
The competition was
started in 1%8 and since
that time has developed in-
to one of the most impor-
tant annual events for
young Canadiam be they
student bartenders or ac-
tually plying the profes-
sion. The winner goes on to
compete against

Taming of the Shrew". Leading actors, Lilli and her former husband Fred Graham, have
become the battling Kate and Petruchio of Shakespeare's great comedy, both on and off
stage. Add erroneously delivered notes and a few gangsters and you have the makings of a
merry, melodious. and sophisticated evening of American music theatre. Artistic director
L. Garth Allen and the cast and crew of "Kiss Me Kate" invite you to enjoy such wonderful
Cole Porter tunes as "Another Op'nin, Another Show", "So in Love 'Too Darn Hot" and
"Wunderbar" to name only a few.

Total Golf Experience
At Horseshoe Resort
Twenty seven holes of
championship golf; a
variety of instructional
programs; a one of a kind
driving range; and the lux-
uries of an award winning
Inn are among the attrac-
tions golfers can look for-
ward to at Horseshoe
Resort this summer.
"The goal of the 1994
season is to offer visitors a
total golf experience," says
Trevor Graham,
Horseshoe's Director of
Marketing. "Our approach
combines 27 holes of
challenging golf, profes-
sional instruction for
novices up to accomplished
players, a full range of
family and business
packages, plus the very
best of Ontario
hospitality."
Mr. Graham confirmed
that Horseshoe opened its
18 hole, Valley Course and
nine hole, Highlands
Course and Range earlier
this month "in response to
golfers desire to put winter
behind them and get bock
to the game they love
most...
Throughout April. en-
thusiasts can take advan-
tage of the resort's "Early
Golf' package that offers
accommodation. breakfast
and greens fees starting at
$49 per person per night
hosed on double occupan-
cy. Until May 14th, daily
golfers can enjoy 'opening
rates' for 18 holes of play on
the Valley Course for $26 or
SM for two rounds of nine
bole play on the HWdards
Course.
1994 represents
Horseshoe's most com-
prehensive golf program to
date, developed in conjunc-
tion with Patrick Bowers,
the resort's Director of
Golf and a recognized
member of the Canadian
Professional Golf Associa-
tion I CPGA 1.
Both Graham and
Bowers believe that the ap-
peal of Horseshoe is its
ability to "match the ex-
pectations" of experienced
players and emerging
golfers who want value and
excitement in their
favourite pastime.
Demanding players will
be challenged by the
rigours of the Valley
Course for precision shot
making. Those who prefer
a more relaxed approach
will enjoy the comfortable
appeal and natural beauty
of the Highlands Course.
Again this season, the
Horseshoe Golf School will
present a full range of lear-
ning programs under the
guidance of Ian Burnett,
Teaching Professional, and
a host of CPGA instructors.
Among the highlights of
the School are the eight
laser measured' greens
and over an acre of bent
grass tee's found at the
Highlands Golf Course and
Range. The innovative
`practice and play' facility
enables golfers to practice
their game in as real and
natural a setting as possi-
ble.
For visitors who hope to
combine golf with other
outdoor activities,
Horseshoe is at the centre
of 5000 acres of rolling
woodlands, and offers the
best of hiking, horseback
riding, and mountain bik-
ing.
Throughout the '94 golf
season the resort will an-
nounce special "getaway
packages" to encourage
visitors to pamper
themselves at The Inn at
Horseshoe, located at the
base of Horseshoe Valley.
A recipient of the
CAAi AAA Four Diamond
Award, the highest rating
bestowed upon a resort in
Canada, the Inn at
Horsehshoe, features
elegant suites, fine dining,
and fitness and spa
facilities.
Starting in May, the
Resort will offer accom-
modation at The Inn at
Horseshoe, breakfast dai-
ly, and a full round of golf
from $99 per person, per
night based on double oc-
cupancy.

and in just two decades has
become the most visited
zoological attraction of its
kind in the world. In 1994,

tant today as it was 20
years ago. Through the ex-
periences we provide -
creating unique oppor-
tunities for guests to in-
teract with marine animals
and learn about the majes-
ty and mystery of the sea -
the public is learning to
conserve and protect
aquatic environments. We

gress that's been made and
look forward with hope to
tomorrow. We can think of
no better way to com-
memorate our anniversary
year than by continuing to
expand and invest in *this
special place. Through
this, we celebrate the
future."

troductions in 1994 include

SCARBOROUGH
CAREER FAIR '94:
On Wed. Apr. 20th, three
busloads of students from
Borden attended the Scar-
borough Career Fair at Le
Parc.
Students had the oppor-
tunity to talk with
representatives from over
60 different careers and
ask questions from such
diverse fields as carpentry,
welding, autobody repair,
police, RCMP, banking,
colleges, hairdressing, and
computer companies.
Both teachers and
students found it an ex-
cellent time to talk to
business and find out first
hand what requirements
and opportunities exist in
many different careers.
The Borden students
were among approximate-
ly 12,000 students who
visited the career fair over
two days.

ASSEMBLY:
On Thurs. Apr. 21, the
whole student body at
Borden enjoyed a special
assembly. The Carousel
