Board & Teachers Reach Agreement The Durham Board of Education, the Ontario Public School Teachers' Federation - Durham District, and the Durham Women Teachers' Associa- tion have reached an agreement on the im- plementation of the second year of the Social Contract. The revised sub -target for this group will require elementary teachers in Durham who earn more than $30,000 per year to take 4 unpaid leave days during the period Apr.1,1994 to Mar.31,1995. These days will be taken before the scheduled winter break, resulting in schools being closed for 10 weekdays, beginning on Mar.6,14% and ending on Mar. 17, 1995. To ensure the full number of instructional days for students, professional ac- tivity days previously scheduled for Sept.16 and Nov.7, 1994 and Feb. 10 and June 8, 1995 will become regular school days when both teachers and students will attend.

Durham Board Offers Summer Activity Camps Strnmer vacation means free time, sometimes too much free time. Kids get bored and parents have dif- ficulty finding meaningful activities to keep their children busy over the long summer months. This summer, the Durham Board will offer summer computer activity camps in each community. The five-day camps will be offered during July at dif- ferent schools in the area. The cost for each camp is $125. Students will spend five days, from 9 a.m. to 3.30 p.m. each day, learning about high tech computer skills and taking part in sports and other activities arranged by the school. The time will be split even- ly between the two pro- grams. The computer activity camps will be self-funded. Money remaining after salaries of teachers and student aides have been paid will be channelled back into the school for the purchase of computers or for funding of student com- puter activities or teacher in-service in the area of computers. Students interested in par- ticipating in a camp should watch their local newspaper for the Durham Board's ad giving the loca- tion and date of each camp being offered in their com- munity.

By Bob Watson Last week two of our yearly subscribers received their June 15th issue of the paper emailed on June 14) on Tues. June 21st. This is hardly the way "first class" mail should be processed. In fact, how could the Canada Post Corpora- tion justify a system that takes 6 whole days to deliver its mail' Last week Canada Post apparently asked the federal government if it can raise the first class mail stamp price from 43 to 45 . No reason was given, but perhaps the real reason is that the top brass of Canada Post at Ottawa has screwed up the postal system in Metro Toronto so thoroughly that the corporation is loosing its customers and a pile of money. Canada Post bought a fast delivery service - Purolator - and it appears to some of us that Canada Post is projecting to be a courier deliver• instead of a public mail service. Perhaps this is the time for the federal government to sell Canada Post Corporation off to a private group who wish to make a viable operation very workable - and profitable.

Home Sales Persistently high vacancy rates will linger in many metropolitan areas throughout 1993. The forecast is based on an analysis of the April 1993 vacancy survey results released by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Twenty of 36 centres re forecast to have a vacancy rate of three per cent or more in October 1993. This will be up from 18 centres in October 1993. As a general rule. a vacancy rate reaching three percent provides renters with a reasonable choice. When rates ex- ceed five per cent for a prolonged period. choice improves. but new rental construction is discouraged. These values can van' depending an local market conditions.

In fact, whets seniors have to be admitted to hospital, we find that in approximately 2D% of cases, the cause is a drug reaction. 7bat's why Health Minister Ruth Grier has set up the Health Network for those receiving prescriptions through the Ontario Drug Benefit program. This province -wide computer system protects your health by alerting phar- macists to possible interactions between the drugs you've prescribed. In a letter to seniors this month, Minister Grier told this story of how the Health Network worked to save a 70 year old Markham man from serious illness. He was taking a blood thinner for a heart -valve problem. While visiting his daughter in Niagara Falls last month, his arthritis flared up and he went to a local clinic. He forgot to tell the doctor there about his heart medication. The doctor, who didn't know his medical history, gave him a prescription for an ASA drug. But when he went to the drug store and the pharmacist entered the new prescription on Health Network, the com- puter flashed a warning that the new drug would react with his heart pills from the drug store at home. The pharmacist talked to the man and his doctor and arranged for alter- native medication. What would have happened without that warning' Possibly, severe internal bleeding and even hospitalization. !Maybe worse. This man is only one of many people who have benefited from Health Network. With about half of On- tario's drug stores hooked up so far, Health Network has warned pharmacists about more than 144.000 possible dangerous reactions. Soon, Health Network will be in 2300 drug stores across the province. Your drug benefits will not change with Health Network. You're still entitled to more than 2300 different drugs listed with the Ontario Drug Benefit program — at no cost to you. DAVID SOMERVILLE Ugly, costly and violent. These are the three words which best describe public serv- ice strikes. Who can forget the nasty Public Service Alliance of Canada strike in 1991 in which striking 'civil' servants intimi- dated, threatened and assaulted those who wished to keep doing their jobs? Unfortunately, Canada may be in store for more of the same as public service unions, at all levels of government, are in a had temper these days and itch- ing for a right. They are angry because all across the country, cash- sirapped governments are cut- ting costs wherever they can. For public service workers. this means wage freezes or cuts or layoffs. Various pubic unions say these economies are unfair and are voicing their opposition i>aeasingly loudly. From coast to coast. pubic service unions have mobilized demonstrations and/or threat- ened strikes To date. however. Iheir Treats have talon on deaf ears Irs not hard to see why.

A mayor factor whed bolsters government resolve is that Public Unions on the Ropes Canadian voters have little sync pathy fa the union's plight. In fact, with unemployment hover- ing at the 11 percent mark nationally, most Canadians would probably say it's high time public servants faced reality. Why should private sector em- ployees be the only ones endur- ing wage rollbacks and job losses? Certainly this seems to be ft prevalent view in Alberta where Premier Klein's popularity actu- ally increased to more than SOX after he faced down thousands of public servants angry at his government's tough austerity measures. Klein's success will likely en- courage other governments to follow his lead. Indeed. they have little choice The impend- ing deficit crunch will inevitably force governments to impose even deeper spending cuts in Ow years ahead. Pubic service wages, which a C.D.

Old Age Security Human Resources Development Canada has announced that there will be no chatnge in Old Age Security rates as a result of decreases in the Consumer Price Index I CPI l in February and March of this year. The Hon. Uoyd Axworthy, Minister of Human Resources Development Canada, stated that although the actual level of inflation has dropped in recent months, the Old Age Security Act ensures benefit levels won't fall. " 7his helps protect the purchasing power of Canada's seniors and adds a measure of stability to their incomes. "Axworthy went on to say that "any increase in OAS rates in October will de- pend on how high the Consumer Price Index rises in May. June and July." If the CPI stays the same, or decreases again, rates will not change in October either. The basic Old Age Securitypension, paid to people 65 years of age and over will be $387.74 per month for the July to September quarter. The maximum Guaranteed Income Supplement will be $460.79 per month for a single pensioner and for a married pensioner whose spouse does not receive the Old Age Security pension or spouse's Allowance. The maximum for a married pensioner wboe spouse does receive the Old Age Security pension or Spouse's Allowance will be $300.14. The maximum Spouse's Allowance, paid to people bet- ween the ages of 60 and 63 with a limited income and who are married to a Guaranteed Income Supplement recipient remains at $687.88. The maximum Widowed Spouse's Allowance, paid to low-income widowed persons between the ages of 60 and 64 is $759.42. Old Age Security benefit rates are adjusted in January, April, July and October to reflect increases in the cast of living. Re -sale Housing Resale housing activity in Canada's 25 major markets declined slightly for the month of May. Preliminary figures released by The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA ) show 19,996 homes traded hands through the MIS in May compared with 20,379 units a year ago, representing a Let's Keep Our Canada Together decrease of 1.9 percent.

June 29, 1994 THE NEWS/POST Page 3 North York Student Wins $3000 For His Entry According to student Charles Ho, "A Chinese Cultural Centre would enrich the fabric of our multicultural society and provide a better understan- ding of Chinese culture." Charles' thorough in- vestigation and insightful analysis into potential site locations for a proposed Chinese Cultural Centre led him to win a first place in the 1993-1994 American Ex- press Geography Competi- tion. The 12th grade student will be awarded $3,000 for his project, "Road to an Ideal Mosaic". His teacher sponsor, Eija Forster, will receive a $500 award for her teaching guidance and his school, A. Y. Jackson Secondary School, will receive $500 for fostering such excellence in the study of Geography. In a well -researched study. Charles took a close look at three possible Metro Toronto locations for a Chinese Cultural Centre - Dragster Races For Girls A week-kxngscience and technology camp intends to prove there is VRR- R000M for females in high-tech careers. Grade 7 girls from North York public and seperate schools built and raced model dragsters during their Adventures in Science and Technology Camp at Victoria Park Secondary School in North York. Running from Mon. June 20 to Fri. June 24, the camp aimed to expose young girls to math. science and technology applications in a fun. suppotive environ- ment. The 30 girls (10 from each of the three participating boards) had hands-on ex- perience in woodworking. drafting, graphic design and aerodynamic analysis. The use of a wide range of technical equipment was intended to increase their competence and dispel their fears. Local tradeswomen (a wood- worker, gapich designer and an architect) lent their skills and support to the camp councillors (six high school senior girls who had experience in a range of technical course) who worked with the Grade 7 students. It is hoped that the pro- gram will develop girls' awareness of the impor- tance of math, science and technology so that they pursue their studies in these areas in high school and beyond. A race car finale on Fri.June 24 gave the girls a chance to test their vehicles in a friendly com- petition. Prizes including a fully -loaded computer was awarded for performance (Which car runs fastest), computer-assisted design and presentation, detailing and finishing, and team spirit. The experience also in- cluded overnight stays at a camp site in Whitchurch- Stouffville with outdoor and environmental games and activities that comple- ment their daytime learn- ing. Grant support under federal Stay in School in-itiatives helped to fund -the program. Scarborough, North York and Toronto. After a careful analysis of funding, zoning, public acceptance, land cost, accessibility, population and geographic factors for each city, Charles concluded that the City of Scarborough offers the best overall opportuni- ty for the development of a Chinese Cultural Centre. "Personally, I think this cultural centre would benefit us all a lot," states Charles. "Some venture is needed to help the Chinese to pass on their culture from one generation to another." Originally from Hong Kong, Charles has lived in Canada since 1991 and explains, "A Chinese Cultural Centre would link people with similar cultural backgrounds, and provide a good place to have meetings, cultural gatherings and celebra- tions. The competition was in- troduced to Charles by his 'Geographics' teacher, Mrs. Eija Forster, who comments, "I think the American Express Geography Competition is tremendous. It motivates students to push beyond the basics of what is expected of them.

CfTY OF SCARBOROUGH Class Environmental Assessment Relocation of Works Yard Public Comments Invited The City of Scarborough has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Tennis Canada to construct the National Tennis Centre at 1050 Ellesmere Road. This project will require the relocation of the existing Works Yard at this location to a new site. The City is proposing to purchase an existing industrial property. Two sites are under consideration - the Liquid Carbonic site on Brimley Road and the Livingston site on Brimley Road, both south of the CNR railway line (see map). The City has retained R.E. Winters and Associates to assist staff in the class environmental assessment process. One of the above sites would be purchased by the City and renovated to provide space for storage of vehicles. equipment and materials and will house maintenance/manufacturing workshops for the Department of Works and Environment and Recreation, Parks & Culture. Space would also be provided for the Public Library Administration and Technical Support Services and a recycling drop-off depot. During the course of this study, two Public Information meetings will be held to outline the study progress and provide an opportunity for review and comments by area residents. City of Scarborough representatives will be on hand to discuss what is proposed and answer your questions.

REENA is a non-profit, social service agency sup- porting adults with developmental disabilities. The agency's main goal is to integrate developmen- tally handicapped in- dividuals into the mainstream of society, enabling them to carry on their lives in a meaningful and dignified manner. There are many ways in which volunteering for REENA can be a rewar- ding and challenging ex- perience. "PAL-unteers" are our direct service volunteers. By befriending a "Pal" you work one-on-one with a client, teaching important basic values and helping them to develop a trusting friendship. "Home -buddies'' visit and help out in one of REENA's many group homes. "Recreation and Leisure" volunteers escort clients to various classes events and assist the class instructor. "Administrative volunteers" share their of- fice skills to support staff "Family Friends" invite clients, who may not have a family of their own, to par- ticipate in family ac- tivities special dinners. And, last but not least, volunteers are now being recruited for the exciting new Speakers Bureau. Peo- ple from all walks of life, with a variety of skills, are needed to speak to groups on behalf of REENA. A full training program will be provided as well as in- novative materials and teaching aids. For more information contact Arlene Margolese. Coordinator of Volunteer Services at 787-9654 ext. 3036 or 7437-0131. Toronto Police Report for July 1, 1867: "Had very little to do all day.

And as has usually hap - pend this season, the Mild Seven Benetton Ford of Germany's Michael Schumacher ran away with it, winning his 5th race this year. Schumacher has been almost invincible, sweep- ing everything except the previous race in Spain. In that event his car was stuck in fifth gear, yet he still managed to finish se- cond, a remarkable feat which demonstrates not on- ly Schumacher's skill, but the driveability of the Benetton. Afte tha Canadian Grand prix, Schumacher said,"This fifth win of the season was not as straigh- forward as it might have looked. Although no-one ac- tually got really close to me, there were a number of fights as I maintained the gap to the car behind me ...It was a very hard race, but a very satisfying win because of that." In practice and qualifying sessions on Friday and Saturday, the Ferraris of France's Jean Alesi and Austria's Gerhard Berger set fastest times, and it ap- peared then that the 4.430 km circuit, known as a "power track" with little opportunity for passing , would be eminently suited to their V12 engines. But Schumacher prevailed in Saturday's final qualifica- tions and took pole - position, most important here. Because of the tragic San Marino, Italy weekend in which two drivers (Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna) died, and the slight- ly less violent but still crash -fraught weekend of Monaco ( from which Karl Wendlinger is recovering), the Formula 1 drivers co- operated with FIA officials to attempt to make Mon- treal's Gilles -Villeneuve circuit safer. A chicane was placed after the east hairpin which slowed the cars con- siderably. Lap times in both practice and race were some eight seconds slower this years than last, and it apparently worked as there were no accidents in the race. Coming in second after Schumacher was the Rothmans William Renault of Great Britain's Damon Hill, more than one-half minute behind. Hill had 111111111011110 Metro Toronto Council Council members' offices - Station 1020, 2nd.floor Metro Hall. 55 John St.. Toronto M5V 3C6.

"Yesterday I was new to the circuit, and also trying to get used to the setup of the car," Coulthard said. "But I am now able to drive quite hard round here and I am pleased to be fifth on the grid (after qualifying)... We still have some work to do on the car, but I am quite happy that all the decisions we have made have been im- provements and it proves we are all working well together. " After the race Hill said, "I lost a little bit at the start as I didn't make a good one... I enjoyed the race, enjoyed the weekend and had a good time - we didn't win, that's the only drawback. ...I think we have made improvements, but we still haven't hit upon that thing that is going to put us ahead of Michael... Damon Hill is apparently the only driver, with one- third of the season over, to have a mathematical chance at beating Schumacher for the cham- pionship. Schumacher now has 56 points, Hill has only 23. Third in the race was Scuderia Ferrari car of Alesi to take final spot on the podium, and teammate Berger took 4th. Consider- ing Benetton's and Williams' superiority at this stage of the season it was a good finish for Fer- rari with both in the top four, and it's only a matter of time before they take a win. The real story of this weekend was the superb performance of 23 year-old David Coulthard. He tested extensively, for the Williams team in 1993, and replaces Senna in the Williams. In this race he finished fifth, one lap behind the winner, but that is a major accomplishment keeping in mind that he's never before driven at Montreal, and this year the Williams are not as quick as the Benettoas, anyway. David Coulthard would seem to have a great future in Formula 1, but his future with the Williams team may be overshadowed by a persistent rumour in the world of motorsports. 1993 Indycar champion and the 1992 Formula 1 champoin Nigel Mansell is reportedly going to race the second Williams car in the remainder of this year's events which do not conflict with Indyear races. His price, alledged- ly, is $2 million per race. If this should happen, any of the other teams in For- mula 1 should snctch Coulthard up and sign him to the longest contract they possibly can. Coming sixth, andd with ostensibly the final point in the race, was the footwork Ford of Brazil's Christian Fittipaldi. Team principal Jackie Oliver said, "Chris- tian drove very well and I think one ( pit) stop was the right strategy for us. It got us in front of a lot of people. Christian should have won points from all the last races, and when he finishes, he scores." But the footwork point was taken away, and the car was disqualified and excluded from the official results when it was weigh- ed after the race and found to be two kilograms under- wieght from the nummum of 515.kg.

The Basques have their own language, which is nothing like French or Spanish but resembles Albanian. The people are proud of their own culture and architec- ture; houses are white chalet style with dark red or green wood shutters, the men's costumes are large floppy red berets, white tee-shirts and pants with red cumberbunds, and their dance is the Fan- dango. Their cuisine features the products of the region; peppers, seafood, and goat cheese from the Pyr&m6es. The typical dish is a delicious tomato, egg and bell pepper mixture called piperade. The favourite sport is what is known in North America as Jai -Alai, but what they call pelote Basque. Having always been great fishermen and travelling extensively for fishing, the Basques most likely brought this game. played to this day in Florida and in St. Pierre do Miquelon, to the New World. Bayonne is the capitol of the Basque Country, and has been a major port and military base since the 12th century. Baynets, the dagger -like weapons at- tached to the muzzle of a gun, originated from here but fortunately the city has a much more pleasant side including its winding streets. bustling markets. the Basque Museum and the famous cured ham, jambon de Bayonne. Other interesting towns are: St -Jean -de -Luz; well estahshed fishing port and host of an annual Tuna Festival, July 2-9 94, St - Jean -Red -de -Port; called ..Pied -de -Port". was the last French village on the pilgrimage Route to Com- postella, Ainboa; a quaint village located higher tip in the PvrOn6es, and Biarritz; the seaside spa -resort town which Napo146on III and Eugenie made famous.

Medoc Vineyard Blooms - Smart and Beautiful In the rich wine produc- ing area of Medoc, some 60 km north west north of Bordeaux, roses are planted at the top of each row of grapevines adding colour and beauty to an already attractive area. The roses, though beautiful, were not originally planted for their esthetics but rather because the blights which attack vineyards will at- tack rose bushes first. Peo- ple tending the vines will know in advance when to treat them due to the state of the roses. Midi-Pyrenees, Some Of Its VillagesAre The -Prettiest In France" The town of Cordes, located just 25 km north west of Albi, dates back to 1222 when it began as a for- tified town or bastide. Per- ched on the top of a small isolated mountain, this ex- ceptional village overlooks the Creou valley and seem- ingly reacpes up towards the sky. Its original name was Cordoue as Spanish names were the fashion of the times, and it is known for the five encompassing fortifications which have protected it throughout the ages, and its exceptional architecture. Though its present population is scarcely 1000, it was over 6000 in its hey- day back in the 13th cen- tury when the people specialized in leather work, weaving and rope produc- tion. It was during this time that the construction of Bourgeois homes, of which the town is very proud, were built. They are amongst the finest ex- amples of civil gothic ar- chitecture found in France today, and are definitely worth the visit. StAlrq-1a-Poppie. 25 km due east of Cahors, is per- ched on a cliff some Som above the meandersome Lot River, and permits a breathtaking view of the river and the neighbouring countryside.

Today, the tiered town of less than 200 inhabitants, looks surprisingly like it Should have years ago. for there are no garnish signs. wiring, television antenae and even the small French cars cannot squeak through the narrow streets. The houses are very unique and picturesque, with gothic doors, brown We roofs, leaded windows, timbered facades and enclosed overhangs. Though not officially on the "Prettiest Villages of France" list, the village of Rocamadour could readily be so. The village literally clings to the side of a cliff 150 m above the gorge of Alzou, and is considered se- cond only to Normandie's Mont -St -Michel scenery. An old saying from the Quercy area describes it as; the houses on top of the stream, the churches on top of the houses, the cliffs on top of the churches and the castle on top of the church! Many steps lead the way from the base of the village to where the church and castle are, and pilgrims used to make the trek on their knees. It was one of the pilgrims' stops on the route to St -Jacques de Com- postella as the Chapel of Notre Dame is home of the Black Virgin. During its golden years from the 12th to the 15th century, Rocamadour received as many as 30,000 pilgrims per day. The castle at the top of the cliff yields a spec- tacular vista over the valley.

Success Story Three years ago the lines were drawn in a confronta- tion in the waters surroun- ding Alaska that pitted a than against the environ - merit. On one side were fishermen trying to snake a living by commercially fishing for bLwkc-od. On the other side were killer whales who were satisfying their voracious appetites by stripping the fishermen's lines of the blackeod. There were reports that frustrated fishermen allegedly started shooting at the killer whales in at- tempts to protect their cat- ches. Thanks to Hubbs-Sea World Research Institute, the fishermen and killer whales today are living much more harmoniously. Hubbs researchers deter- mined the killer whales were being drawn to the fishermen's boats by the sound of the fishing lines being hauled back into the boats.
