By Glenn Hendry
A Pickering man whose wife became HIV-positive as a result of surgery in 1981
has a message for anyone who received blood between 1978 and 1985: get tested.
Gabe Kampf, a Fairport Road resident, is angry that the Canadian health system
has remained silent over the issue of tainted blood. At least 1,000 Canadians have
been infected with HN through blood transfusions.
The really important message is anyone who had surgery involving blood should be
tested. The worst thing you can do is remain untreated," he toid The Bay News.

By Glenn Hendry
Brock West is a leaking landfill, but poses little risk to the health of
nearby residents, concludes a report from Durham Region's health
department.
The report was released last week and compiled by regional assodate
Medical Officer of Health Dr. Linda Parwo. She refutes a Puckering -Ajax
Citizens Together for the environment (PACT) -sponsored report released
last September that daims leachate from the site could poison local
children.
Dr. Joseph Cummins, as associate professor of genetics at the University -
of Western Ontario and a noted environmental health advocate, was
commissioned by PACT' last surnmer to study the environmental impacts of
leachate breakouts from the landfill site.
Cummins concluded that the dump should be dosed immediately. He -
added that Brock West should be marked with a "skull and crossbones"
because of a "hemorrhaging" of toxic chemicals such as cyanide, arsenic
and cadminium into nearby Duffins Creek
He also warned of the risks of expbsions in local homes because of
escaping methane gas. Cummins claimed that leachate from the site could
eventually "poison the drinking water supply of Metropolitan Toronto."
Pmuvo, however, said the only health risks the dump poses to residents
are "acute, subjective and sell -limited symptoms," such as worsening
asthma. -
She also carne close to calling Cummins' conclusions scare tactics, `
noting that the risk of a methane gas explosion in the residential area is
"unlikely." Another daim, that leachate breakouts at the site were

Rckering-Ajax Citizens Together
for the environment (PACT) has
hired Sister Marie Bertal, a Nobel
prize winning health specialist, to
study the health of Pickering
residents.
The study will begin with an
intensive questionaire to 400
residents. Sister Berta! and her
Toronto firm. Health 2000, will
then compare Pickering results
with statistics from around the
world to hghiig .t health problems
and their causes. PACT
representatives Dave Steele ar.d
Dave Ryan gave an outline of the
study to Pickering cotaxi Monday
night. Council was considering a
motion to corm^lme 510,000 to
the 530,000 study.
Ran criticized a recent report
by Dtiam reg:orai ;realth on the
state of the Brock West dtartpsite
as a disservice to Pickering
residents.
.Stec le explained that PACI"s
study was not specifically tied to
nealth -;sues related to the dump.
The study would look at health
first, and then work outward to
causes, whether they were the
dump, or water quality, or nuuciear
radiation, or anything else. He said
Sister Bertal was awarded the
Nobel Prize for this ki^d of study in
both Asia and Europe.

committed to this kind of

A Toronto man suspected
of passing counterfeit money
is in police custody now,
thanks to alert employees at
an Ajax Beer store.
The employees at the
Commercial Avenue store
detained the suspect who
had attempted to pass a fake
$50 bill, until police arrived.
The suspect, who was
carrying 15 counterfeit $50
bills when he was arrested, is
also suspected of passing
fake bills at a number of
other locations in Durham,
mostly beer stores and liquor
stores, police said.
Lawrence Lauder, 38, of
Greenwood Avenue, was
held for investigation after a

Cultural centre for Ajax?
By Glenn Hendry
Does Ajax lack culture?
Ward 3 Councillor Steve
Parish thinks so, and wants the
town to spend its
federal/provincial infrastructure
money on a library/theatre
complex to address that need.
Parish, who said Ajax lacks a
"cultural dimension," wants the
complex built in the Harwood
Avenue-Bayly Street area. He
speculated that part of town
could be a "ghost town" when
the Highway 401 interchange is
moved from Harwood to
Pickering Beach Road at the end
of the decade.
Parish introduced the
proposal during last week's
executive and development
committee meeting where
members were given the task of
deciding how to spend the $5.1
minion infrastructure allotment.
The libra:../theatre was not
part of staff recommendations,
which included $412,300 for'
the reconstruction of Christina
Crescent, $400,100 for work
on Georgina Crescent.
$897,000 for improvements to
MacKenzie Avenue, $144,000
for the resurfacing of Rands
Road (year two), and
$1,189,323 for intersection
improvements at Highway 2 and
Elizabeth Street, and Highway 2
and Church Street.
Committee members decided
after some debate to defer the
local funding decisions to the
April 7 executive and
development committee
member.
"We have to look at (the
library/theatre complex).
There's an opportunity to do
some innovative things here,"
said Regional Councillor Roger
Anderson, the committee
chairman. "But we don't have a
lot of time."
What committee members did
agree to do was the Carruthers
Creek pumping station, a $16.3
million (first phase) project that
will open up 1,200 acres of
industrial land and 1,000
additional residential acres for
development.
The town will spend $2.1
million of its allotment, coupled
with $6 million of Durham
Region's infrastructure cash.
The one-third funding required
by the municipalities under the
program will be picked up by
Runnymede Development, the
principal landowner at the site.
The development company
will chip in an additional $8.2
million, bringing its total
contribution to $10.9 million.
Ajax Chief Administrative
Officer Bary Malmstem said the
pumping station will "serve
Ajax's future" and also "help to
address the towr,'s
residential/'industrial imbalance."
Malmstem predicts the ratio
— now at 82 per cent
residential, 1S per cent industrial
— will be at 65/35 when the
area served by the pumping
station is completely developed.
Pickering couple launch
tainted blood lawsuit
e From Page 1
15,000 Canadians were given
HIV tainted blood during the
period from 1978 to 1985,
before an AIDS -screen was
initiated. Lynn was given no
warning by the hospital and
didn't find out she was infected
with HIV until June, 1993.
Gabe Kampf is HN -negative.
'It was certainly devastating
news," Gabe explained. "We
cM t know what it meant. Did
it mean we were facing weeks,
months? We had a tremendous
amount to learn."
What they have learned,
Gabe said, is there are 150 to
200 new HIV-positive cases in
Ontario each month and that
the infection rate for women,
now 10 to 20 per cent of all
cases, is on the increase.
Gabe also read the results of a
Hospital for Sick Children pilot
project studying infected children
that ooncluded as much as one
per cent of patients who
received blood at the hospital
from 1978 to 1985 could be
infected with HIV.
During that period there were
1.5 million transfusion patients
in Canada.
Lynn Kampf, the mother of
three teenagers, testified at the
commission of a lack of
counselling in her case as well as
a myriad of medical
misinformation and system
glitches. Gabe Kampf told The
Boy NYeurs they are working on
a lawsuit with the Canadian Red
Cross and St. Michael's Hospital
named in the suit.
"This should not have
happened. Blood transfusion
victims should be traced and
told," he said. "This should
never happen again."

30 -Hour Famine creates world hunger awareness
By Peter Wokhak
The 30 -Hour Famine arrives
In Pickering and Ajax this
weekend, and for North
Americans who rarely go
without food for more than 12
hours, the experience should be
an eye-opener.
On Feb. 25 and 26, local
citizens join more than 500,000
others worldwide who will
participate in this year's famine,
sponsored by Canadian -based
World Vision. Participants
solicit pledges and fast for 30
hours, consuming only water
and fruit juice. The money
helps fund approximately 5,000
development projects in more
than 90 countries.
Fasting is not easy, says
World Vision representative Big
Waffle.
"It's not comfortable to go
without solid food for 30 hours,"
he told The Bay News. "You
can't experience what it's like to
be in a (real) famine, to not have
safe drinking water or regular
food. By going without food
you're saying This matters to
me, it's important.'
It's important to Grade 12
Pickering High School student
Melissa Martin. This is her
second fast.
"Near the end (of the first fast)
I just wanted food," she said in
an interview at her school. 'But
it isn't as hard as you think it will
be. The thought of kids who go
days and days without food
levels you off and you think, 'I'm
not going to eat.' If I raise $25
it will be better than nothing.
Teenagers — until we're 18 —
can't vote. We can unite letters
but they don't do much. With
this we can actually have an
effect."
Martin is being encouraged by
Roger Middleton, her geography
teacher. Middleton, involved for
his sixth year, hopes many of his

students will participate.
rhe kids are sincere. It's not
a social event, but an
educational experience," he said
in an interview.
Fasting gave him a greater
understanding of poverty issues.
"The first time you fast you
wonder about it. It made me
irritable and I ended up just
going to skeep. That's the best
way to deal with it."
"(Some say) people in the
Third World are lazy and they
don't want to work," he added.
"It's easy to be critical, but we
don't understand what it's like to
be malnourished. You get dizzy
and fight -headed. It makes you
think"
And that, ultimately, is the
point. Changing attitudes in
developed countries is at least as
important as donations.
"Over the 30 hours you think
about it more," said Martin.
"It's an awful ordeal for people

Give Papps a try
If you've never visited Papps Restaurant in Pickering before,
maybe you ought to give it a try.
Now celebrating its fifth anniversary, Papps — at Brock Road
and Highway 2 — has become a great local dining institution. The
restaurant's reputation has been built on the great food served,
large portions and terrific value.
"No one is giving any better value," says owner Chris
Papatheodorou, a lifelong resident of Pickering. "We give that
personal touch. We're one of the few independently -owned
restaurants still around."
For those who have been to Papps before, you're all too familiar
with the eatery's wide-ranging menu. Papps has it all — great daily
specials, deli sandwiches, fresh salads, barbecue wings, ribs, stir
fries, and much more.
Papps also features a "heart smart" menu that includes healthier
fare such as vegetarian pasta dishes and salads. Sunday brunch is
still a popular favorite from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m
The restaurant now features great live local entertainment on
Thursday and Friday nights at Papps' Backdoor Pub downstairs.
On weekends the downstairs becomes a great banquet facility,
ideal for private parties and small weddings. The room holds up to
75 people

O'Connor demanded Durham

Higdon upset at Pickering Council's " old -boy" politics
By Michael Maunder
Pickering's only female
councillor, Eileen Higdon, is fed
up with the "old -boy" style of
doing politics on Pickering
council.
"You've reached an all-time
low," she told fellow councillors
at the Feb. 21 meeting, after
they refused to consider a; idea
she brought forward. She
wanted to use blue boxes for a
one -day campaign to bolster
food collection for the Food
Bank-
Higdon
ankHigdon first suggested the
idea in a pre -council meeting
two weeks ago. She said she
was disturbed about the behavior
of councillors in that meet.r.q

who "dumped" on her.
"I'm well aware that I am
excluded from the information
decision-making structure of this
council," she said.
Later, in an interview, she
explained that the informal
decision -malting structure was a
pattern of councillors trading
votes — if you support my idea,
1711 support yours.
She said she refused to play
that game.
"My ideas are often rejected
because I don't vote in a
particular pattern with fellow
councillors," she said, adding
that the food bank idea was the

epitome of the pattern.
"It was my idea and therefore
not recognized as being an idea
of merit."
In a letter sent to The Bay
News yesterday, Higdon said
council's refusal to consider the
idea was "narrow-minded"
"I can see no harm on one -
and -a -half hours of staff time for
input into what is involved in
putting together a project such
as this to help the food bank in
Pickering."
Councillor Kip Van Kempen
supported Higdon's claims of
mistreatment by the mayor and
councillors at the council
meeting. He called for a vote to
allow her to introduce the blue
box idea. The vote was
defeated, with Councillors
Maurice Brenner and Enrico
Pistrino voting against.
Three members of council
were absent at Monday's
meeting — Mayor Wayne
Arthurs and Rick Johnson, at a
roads convention in Toronto.,
and Councillor Doug Wellman.
Later in the meeting,
Councillor Enrico Pistritto also
talked about the need for a new
kind of politics on council. He
has been embroiled in a
campaign to authorize the use of
convention funds to attend a
management seminar on
"principle -centered leadership."
He said in a newsletter to
constituents that he would bring
the matter to a vote on Feb. 21.
But at Monday's meeting, he
told councillors he has been
having a lot of good talks with
constituents about the issue and
feels the need to continue
discussing. He said he was not
bringing the issue for a vote
now, but would bring it when
the time is "appropriate."
Computer theft at PHS
Thieves took advantage of an empty Ajax classroom Saturday by
smashing their way into a computer room and stealing equipment
worth nark, $5,000.
Eight computers were stolen in the theft at Pickering High
School, gained through a propped open door, left ajar by a drama
reacher, and then the thieves smashed the computer room door with
a rock, causing $600 damage. The theft was discovered shortly
aster 10 a.m. when the teacher returned to check on his class.
Police said the rock, which weighted 20 pounds, wasp t from
school property but from a nearby resident's rock garden.

At-home care
Universal day care is a well-intentioned
idea that certainly fulfills a vitally important
social need.
Last week, the Ontario government
announced it is poised to launch a cheaper
and more accessible form of day care for
families who can least afford it. It's a
progressive move that has been a long time in
coming.
Essentially, the plan calls for the province
to assume the administration of day care
senice. Day care registration would be done
through a regional agency and spaces would
be allotted on a first-come, first-served basis.
The province would fund service, then
collect fees from parents. Those whose
income fails below a certain level would
automaticalh, be entitled to subsidies without
hating to go onto a waiting list.
It's all a wonderful sounding idea and
certainly an immense improvement over the
existing way day care services are provided.
The mrnme to making day care more available
certainly fulfills a need. But it is still an
institutionalized child care system
Curioush•, the notion of making it easier for
families to stay home with their own children
doesn't seem to fit into the child care
equation. Parents must be considered the
best and most qualified care providers.
Certainly there is a significant number of
families who would prefer to stay at home
with their children if they could afford to.
Any parent who has ever dropped off a
youngster at day care understands the painful
separation and emotional stress that occurs.
Day care for many families is a need driven
by economic necessity. Two parents work in
order to make ends meet. For some, a little
additional income could make the difference.
Ift not provide some type of government
grant or subsidy to families who choose to
stay home with their children? Nothing
exorbitant. As muds as what is currently paid
in the form of a day care subsidy and year
end tax credit.
There's enough evidence to suggest that
.institutionalized child care has had a
significant impact on a generation of
youngsters. Many of today's social problems
might well be traced to something lacking in
the way children have been raised.
It's an option that should have as much
merit as placing youngsters in day care. The
province might well consider helping parents
stay at home to raise their children at least
equally as important as institutionalizing
them. N

Knights thrill Pickering students
By Peter Wokhak
Knights fought, ladies
swooned and students cheered
Friday when The Society for
Creative Anachronism brought
the medieval world to St.
Anthony Daniel Catholic School
In Pickering.
The society is a non-profit
educational group who study
medieval times, the period of the
knights, the Crusades and the
Black Death, from
approximately 600-1600 A.D.
They stage festivals and battles
and teach others about bygone
days.
The world, according to the
society, is divided into 13
kingdoms, and then into
principalities, baronies and
cantons. With 100,000
members worldwide, the society
has a king and queen and a full
range of lesser nobles. The
monarchs must fight for the
right to rule in tournaments held
twice a year.
Six members were at St.
Anthony Daniel Catholic School
last Friday. Two knights clashed
in a series of battles,
interspersed with lessons on
Chivalry and the history of the
period. Students cheered wildly
as the combatants bashed each
other with a variety of period
weapons. A musician and three
ladies of the court completed the
group.
The students were most
interested in the conflict, and
often encouraged a knight to
finish -off his opponent rather
than spare his life, as the riles
of chivalry occasionally dictated.
It is just those rules and the
philosophy behind them that the
society encourages.
"The whole value of honor,
chivalry, courtesy and carng are
central to what we believe,"

musician Jeff Burke said after
his performance. "It's how we
operate our lives. This is
missing in today's society and it's
not always encouraged."
Members spend evenings and
weekends making period
costumes and armor, studying
the history and generally living
the iife of the medieval age. At
festivals they recreate ancient
towns, perform traditional music
and demonstrate technology that
was out-of-date centuries ago.
Authentic feasts will included
sekanjhamin, an Arabian mint
drink, and sobtielty and
blancmange, two desserts.
Dana Cusing, who's medieval
name is Austrechild von
Mondsee, is in her second year
of medieval studies at the
University of Toronto. She
admits to spending a lot of time
in the past. "It's significant :n
my life," she said after
per^orrning at St. Anthony
Daniel. "Some people tn'.nk it's
strange, end it is, but it's a lot of
fun."
"Some people call (role
playing) 'the dream.' It
represents our aspiration to
chivalry and courtesy. It is what
we reach for."
Local residents can
experience medieval life at a
planned November arts and
sciences competition in
Pickering. For information on
the group call Heather Loeffler,
known in the society as
Alexandrina Kleinschmidt, at

Ajax
approves
budget
Ajax council approved a
1994 budget Monday night that
calls for a zero tax hike, despite
a $1.4 million drop in revenue
and the lowest growth in
assessment in more than 20
years.
The town accomplished the
zero increase in the mill rate for
the first time since records were
made available to the media in
1980.
Regional Councillor Susan
Dulny, who chaired the budget
coMmittee, called the budget
process a "culmination of
opinions and struggles" and,
ultimately, a "final result
hopefully bringing us all good
news."
She `tanked staff for bringing
:n a preliminary budget that
allowed council to maintain the
level of services to residents,
.�fiile recognizing the difficulties
*ae task presented because of
:.-ie Social Contract andthe
reduced transfer payments from
the province. .
Ward 3 Councillor Steve
Parish, while also congratulating
Dulny and staff for bringing in a
budget without a tax increase.
said the result did have its
drawbacks.
"Were fooling ourselves if we
think we're not cutting services.
We have to operate more
efficiently," he said, a sentiment
echoed by Ward 5 Councillor
Pat Brown, who said the town
has to become "leaner and
meaner, as private industry has."
Municipal revenue in Ajax this
year is expected to be
$6,940,000, with expenses of
$19,285,000. More than half
of all taxes collected is
earmarked for education with
another 20.4 per cent of
municipal taxes headed for
Durham Region.
Gun" pulled
on student
A 17 -year-old student was
threatened with the business
end of a gun in an inckient at
Exeter High School in Ajax
Durham Regional Police have
no suspects in the case and a
desaiption of the suspect, who
pointed a gun at the victim's
head and threatened to shoot
tam, wasn't released.
.The victim left the sclrool on '
a school bus before reporting
the inddant.to poke.

One child builds a bulldog and programs its moves,
another conducts a botany experiment planting seeds
and recording its growth, and still others solve math
equations and build a rocketship.
Are these children in a fancy research laboratory?
Not at all. Each of these children is simply working on
a computer and loving every minute of it. These are
the children who attend FutureKids classes.
FutureKids, located at 376 Kingston Rd. in Pickering,
offers many excellent educational programs available
that offer a wide range of math skills. Adult guidance
can help children zero in on their interest niche and
appropriate skill level. Many math programs allow you
to adjust the skill level within the program to increase or
decrease the difficulty, thus customizing the program.
The child can then proceed at his or her own pace,
thereby building the confidence level.
To find out more about these exciting opportunities
for learning or about the FutureKids March Break
camps (March 10 - 11, all day; March 14 - 18, half -
days), call FutureKids at 509 -KIDS.
