DNA shutout Board rejects call for nuke review Ontario Hydro has received an early Christmas present with Friday's news from the Atomic Energy Control Board (AECB) that the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station will get its operating licence renewed for two years. The announcement means the station will not :nave to undergo a federal environmental review, despite the Dec. 10 spin of 140 tonnes of tritium - laced heavy water that has raised waning bens in the community over public safety. Durham Nuclear Awareness (DNA), a local environmental group, didn't pun any punches in denouncing the decision, tailing the AECB 'more of a lapdog than a watchdog." a clack day for public accountability and nuclear safety. Pickering has just had a major accident. We have the smoking gun, do we need bodies?" DNA spokesman Dave Martin said. `How close to the edge do we have to get?" The board, in a nine -page decision, explained that the safety performance of the station .continues to be acceptable" and it would -not be justified" to refuse an operating licence. The document went on to say the board is satisfied Ontario Hydro is taking the necessary steps in making improvements at the plant, such as the second fast shutdown system at Pickering 'A' that is mandated by Ottawa to be in place by 1997. 'An effective method to ensure these improvements are made is by ming the licence and then regulating the station in the public interest," the board said. Continued on Page 2 Flea market vendor claims 'terrorist tactics' by management by Glenn Hendry A battle royale is brewing at the beleaguered Metro East Trade Centre over alleged 'terrorist' tactics against vendors. Glenn Middleton of Fama>s Faces Promotions, the promoter of sports card shows and a permanent vendor at the trade centre flea market, claims management Is trying to get rid of him, as well as other vendors - mdtdM an antique booth run by his octogenarian parents. They're termridng vendors, just to keep them in line,- Middleton told The Bay News, adding he is not behind in his $325 per month rent. 'They're cutting my ankles off, just to get my booth out.* Middleton's allegations are denied by Phil Dri¢dac of Bealloi, Beallor and Boris, Inc. who have been acting as receivers for the trade centre, wtvch awes $28.6 million on a mortgage held by Royal Tnatco and Standard Life, since May.

Pickering station operations manager Mike Williams said he was 'pleased" to see the board recognized the station's safety record. Williams, who said equipment changes will be made in reactor 2, also promised to improve Ontario Hydro's often -criticized record of information -sharing with Pickering residents "We'll be looking in 1995 to share information with our neighbors a little better," he said. Martin, however, said the increased sharing of information and the promises of public meetings are not enough for his group. Only a full environmental assessment would satisfy. "1 think the AECB has had a credibility meltdown and betrayed the public trust. We don't need another information MAYOR'S TOWN HALL MEETING WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 11th, 1995 7:00 P.M. TO 9:30 P.M.

Martin also said the board ignored public concern — including calk from local federal and provincial members of parliament and Pickering town council — in refusing the environmental assessment.

To qualify for a defibrillation program, a region must have a base hospital to direct, through a radio link, the actions of ambulance attendants. An emergency 911 system and an ambulance response time of eight minutes or less are also required. The money will go to buy defibrillators and upgrade existing equipment.

Dziedzic added that he is "not aware" of any move to expel Middleton. Dziedzic also denies there is any move by him or Charter Hall Management Group Ltd. — the company he has hired to take care of day -today operations at the trade centre — to change the vendor makeup at the flea market. "Not at the moment. At the moment we are enhancing its operations and considering its best future use,' he explained, adding he believed the flea market will remain basically unchanged for "some time to come.' Middleton, however, is not convinced. He said he will be meeting with other vendors this weekend to attempt to organize a vendors association to fight any future changes by management. More than $357,000 of the money owed by the trade centre is owed to the Town of Pickering for outstanding market licence fees, which haven't been paid since Dec. 26, 1993. Middleton wants the other vendors to send rent cheques in trust to the town instead of paying the trade centre, as a form of protest. Dziedzic said his firm is "considering" the back fee problem and pointed out he has already had preliminary meetings with the town on the subject. "It's being discussed... and we'll meet again in the new year.' Dziedzic also promised the trade centre will continue to attract top events. "We consider the operation to be back on its feet now." Middleton, who promises to go after management "full bore" to keep his booth, further alleges 75-100 permanent vendors are going to be "turfed out" of the centre for a cottage show planned for February 3. 4 Dec. 24-31. ] 994 a The Bay News Peter Wolchak HAVING HIS HEAD EXAMINED: Grade 2 students from Duffins Bay Public School toured the Ajax and Pickering General Hospital recently.

When out by the nuke plant under an eerie pink glow Wiseman and Herrema were raining down blows. Then what should appear in Pistritto's bailiwick but an old jolly elf that had to be St. Nick. He whistled and shouted from his reindeer -led car now Parish, now Anderson, now Brenner and Farr. On Schaper, on Johnson, on Senis and McMaster and Ryan and Crawford spend harder and faster.

Pow Wdchak TRIMMING THE TREE: Students at Lincoln Alexander Public School in Ajax are performing The Littlest Christmas Tree. Among the cast members are, clockwise from the back, Terika Peters, Jennifer Budd and Kristin Johnstone. Christmas 'present' best present of all Christmas is a special time of year for me and the ghosts of Christmas past are filled with wonderful memories. My earliest yuletide memory was the Christmas of 1964 when Santa came by train. That was the year dad was commuting from Montreal and his train was late. He didn't get home until the wee hours of the morning and my folks were up most of the night putting up the tree, decorating it and then loading it with presents in time for morning. I remember the Christmas of 1973, when I got a guitar from Santa. I had been bugging my parents for one — I had this vision of being a rock star — and I finally had my wish granted that year. I practiced for all of two weeks before quitting. The Christmas of 1984 was special for me, because it was my first away from home. 1 was working in Kenora and couldn't afford to come home, but a local family invited me to spend Christmas dinner with them. They bought me a pair of deerhide mittens (which I still use), fed me a wonderful dinner and generally made me feel welcome. l remember leaving because I felt sick and spending the rest of the night in my bathroom, but it was really very sweet. The Christmas of 1992 was meaningful as well, because I spent the morning at the Scott Mission in Toronto, serving turkey dinners to those in need. The spirit of giving was very strong that year. There are other memories but most of them blend into one picture of many presents and many kids. My parents fostered for many years so there were always children around on Christmas morning. The magic of Christmas that only a child can bring never left our house, even when I was older. Now the magic is back, which brings me to the point of this column. This will be the best Christmas of all. I'm with my new family now — I have my own children to please — and the smile on their faces come Christmas morning will be worth a million memories of the past. I'm really looking forward to it, because it will be a perfect day, and the first of many more just as wonderful. Ment' Christmas to everyone.

When it comes to alcohol, it's easy to be fooled by appearances. But the fact is, that an "innocent" 12 oz. mug of beer or a "harmless" 5 oz. glass of wine, is as guilty of causing intoxication as a standard 1 1/4 oz. shot of hard liquor. And, no matter what you're driniong, one drink per hour sets the pace for responsible moderation. Rud 'n' Redi Pet Supplies Ltd. "Friends don't let r friends drink & drive" 539 Westne'�yRd. S.

Bankrolling the project will be a company headed by former provincial treasurer Larry Grossman, now an investment banker with Lauridon Capital Inc. The company, who entered into an agreement with the newspaper — now published twice weekly by members of the Southern Ontario Newspaper Guild — will put together a business plan and seek to raise private sector capital for the venture. "My partners and 1 have spent a lot of time over the last 10 days going aver the preliminary business plan and meeting with key people from the Independent and the union. We're quire impressed with everything we've seen so far," Grossman said. "We're satisfied that the Oshawa area is a distinct market that can support a newspaper of this variety. Constructing a viable financial plan is not always possible, but we are encouraged at this stage." Lauridon will also be an investor in the newspaper "if the preliminary numbers hold up," Grossman said. "We think there's a lot of potential." Durham Region has been without its own daily newspaper since Thomson Corp. shut down the 21,000 -circulation Oshawa Times on Dec. 4, after a three-week strike by guild/members. "Since the Independent first appeared five weeks ago, weve been overwhelmed by support from readers, advertisers and the Durham labor community. We're determined to be a community-based newspaper, and we will react to what the community wants," said Mark Steurart, former union chair at the Oshawa Times. Cantel Means Business'.

Willis The year 1994, at first glance, was a year for renewal in the arts.

The court decision means the dump, which the town claims is already full and is polluting nearby West Durffins Creek, will remain open. But it also means town lawyers will get a shot at permanently closing Brock West earlier than expected. "We would have wanted an earlier closure but we'd rather wait until May and have a quick trial and decision," said (Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs. "Presumably we'd have ended up with legal delays that could have pushed (the hearing) to September or October. I think it was fair trade-off." Meanwhile, Pickering -Ajax Citizens Together for the environment (PACT) is still trying to get party status at the hearing to state their case for the dump's closure. PACT lawyer Peter Pickfield said he has applied to all three parties - Metro Toronto (the dump owners), the environment ministry (the dump regulators) and Pickering - for party status consent. Only Pickering had agreed at press time. ..!

The Pickering school recently launched a program that will see student mediators circulating around the playground at lunch, watching for quarrels. When they spot an argument, they step in and offer assistance. "You introduce yourself and ask if they want help," Grade 5 mediator Dianna Larkin explained during an interview "I try to help them solve the problem, and they should stop fighting." "We don't solve the problem for them, they have to try to solve it," Lankin said. Mediators suggest a solution if students cannot think of one. If assistance is refused or if the conflict is serious, such as a fight, the mediator summons the teacher on duty. Teacher Christine Holubowsky is on the comr:.ree that laur.&,ed the program. "We assured parents they wi➢ not be brea king up fights. Tney OPTOMETRISTS Dr. E. Gillezeau Dr. M. Fitzsimmons Dr. Joanne Malchuk Dr. K.

In a foram last summer, hosted by the Pickering Arts Council, the issue was discussed further. Among the highlights, a presentation by Bev Boyle, executive director of arts, Richmond Hill and the Metro Region liaison to Community Arts Ontario. Boyle articulated, using facts and figures, what many have always known — the arts are good business and are good /or business. For its part, the Pickering Arts Council took strides to make itself more of a presence in the community it serves. PAC finally found a permanent home, thanks to the generosity of a local real estate broker. The group is entering its 10th year with a bang. Beyond our borders, the Barnes Exhibit at the Art Gallery of Ontario exceeded all expectations at the ticket gate.

This was the year that the commercial side of pop culture really took a trashing, especially at the movies. Both patrons and producers embraced vehicles that broke with convention. Natuna! Born Killers and Pulp Fiction proved that Hollywood can produce quality films that reap tremendous returns at the box office. In a similar vein, Schindler's List and The Piano proved that rich, quality film can cart away Oscars.

When you have visitors, run full loads in you dishwasher. This saves more water than doing several small loads and saves more than washing dishes by hand. Take public transit or ride with a friend when shopping or visiting relatives. At this time of year, thousands more automobiles hit the road. By taking public transit, you can reduce urban smog. One bus equals 40 cars, which gives 70,000 litres of fuel a year and keeps 9 tonnes of pollutants out of the air. • Give gift certificates for automotive tune-ups for Christmas. Fifty per cent of all vehicle emissions come from just 10 per cent of vehicles on the road. Turn down the heat and buy someone a sweater or slippers. Heating the average Canadian home releases about crow .

That equals the weight of four mid-size cars. The energy saved by putting on a sweater and turning down the heat a degree or two can make a big difference. Use reusable gift bags instead of wrapping paper. Last Christmas, Canadians spent $4 billion on decorating, wrapping and presents. This contributes to the more than 30 -million tons of garbage Canadians produce every year, which amounts to more than one ton per person. Gift bags are reusable year after year. Save the wrapping paper and bows on the gifts you receive for reuse next year. Use AC power for toys instead of batteries wherever possible. Batteries are not recyclable and contain dangerous chemicals. During the holidays, when children are home from school, they can go through several sets of batteries when a plug may be nearby. Buy a potted Christmas tree that you can plant in the spring. One urban tree has the equivalent of 10-15rural trees in keeping greenhouse gases from the air. One acre of red pine can trap more than one ton of carbon from the air in one year. A natural cut tree is a good second choice. Natural trees are farmed specifically for houses during. the Christmas season, and are biodegradable when you're done with them. Check to see if your municipal`ty has a Christmas tree recycling program. • Make decorations out of food or used materials. Some ideas include popcorn chains, cranberry wreaths, dried apple ring clusters tied together with a bright red bow, gingerbread ornaments, snowflakes from used paper, a paper doll chairs, used tinfoil rolled into balls and threaded together Wait until after dark to turn on your tree and outdoor Christmas lights, and turn them off at a reasonable hour, such as 10 p.m. Conserve the energy.
