"Td like to see it finished as Z soon as possible, but budgets are ,. key," he says. "We're going to do a$ our best to make it a prominent trail, as close to the water as possi- .I ble." O On tap for this year is the com- 9 pletion of the trail from near the Ajax border to Alex Robertson (tree Hydro) Park, a project that will cost Pickering about $80,000. The town is also negotiating with Ontario Hydro to use some of their land (instead of Montgomery Paris Road) for the trail, giving the walker a view of the lake. "A lot has been accomplished already, "Barren notes. "The future looks good for the trail." by Gleam Hendry Despite funding cutbacks and private ownership complications, the green dream of a waterfront trail through Pickering and Ajax is close to awakening. The trail system, part of former Toronto Mayor David Crombie's vision of an uninterrupted trail from Burlington to Trenton, is closer to completion in Ajax, where a waterfront park system was already in place. Envied by its lakefront munici- A .+,,•, Waterfronrt i ( Town or A!"A Town, rf tack pal colleagues, the town added to its "jewel of the lake" image recently with a three-way land swap that gave Ajax control of the waterfront at the foot of Harwood Avenue and put to rest a pending court battle in the process. All that's left to do now in blaz- ing a waterfront trail from Pickering to Whitby is the area to the east, says planning director Peter Tolleffsen. 'There's some farmland east of Shoal Point Road and the homes on Ontoro Boulevard, but with the Somerset Cove project (at Carruthers Creek) well get the trail to the Audley Road allowance. That's only about one kilometre from the (Whitby) border. "Physically, the trail already 3 covers 70 per cent of our shoreline so �vkxl R; were in pretty good shape." The slory is a little more Trail 1 convoluted in Pickering and R the time line to fruition will be - a tittle longer, but their dream is headed down the right path as well. F r o in Scarborough the trail travels along the lake through green spaces, notably Petticoat Creek Conservation Area, before begin- ning its northward trek along the west shore of Frenchman's Bay. After a short hike through residen- tial sheets, the trail travels through parkland areas - owned either by the town or the Metro Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (MTRCA) - before hitting Bayly Street. That's where the complications begin, notes councillor Doug Dickerson. "A waterfront trail is not intend- ed to be on the roadways - it should be near the water," he says. "It's kinds silly to have the trail on Bayly; we want to keep the trail natural and it takes away from it if we tell people to walk on the side- walk." Dickerson and his council col- leagues are working on solving that problem, however, They're negotiating with Harold Hough's Pickering Harbor Company (a major player in any Frenchman's Bay negotiation) to run the trail south of a proposed property on the north shore of the bay, The only drawback may be the environmen- tally sensitive nature of the marsh- lands. The bay's east shore, tied up in private lands and complicated by a long-running water rights feud was another hold-up but the town is talking its way into solutions on that front as well. The aquisition of the Port Pickering Marina lands was a big step (the town's offer is condition- al and not a done deal yet) but more negotiations with other pri- vate landowners are needed, Dickerson says. "The vision is to see the whole trail by the water over the next five years. It's do -able." MMCA spokesman Larry Fields agrees, noting that the deal struck last year between the town and Hough over water rights in the bay was a "significant step for- ward" for the trail's future. "In terms of the land base for the trail, the bulk of the work has already been done." Another problem that has recently surfaced is money; or the lack of it, says town planner Geoff McKnight. The provincial govern- ment was doling out cash (through Crombie's Waterfront Regeneration -Trust) for capital projects but Premier Mike Harris ended that revenue source this year by killing JobsOntario. Last year in fact, the province shelled out half of the nearly $1 million price tag for a chunk of trail on the Pickering side and the Duffin Crede bridge on the Ajax side, with Rotary clubs in the two towns also contributing a share. "So in the future it will be up to us to complete the trail system, unless the province changes its mind and throws some money our way," McKnight points out."More money will have to be found through private and corporate donations and through f mdrais- ing." The Waterfront Regeneration Trust will continue to award money for trail projects, however, says Suzanne Barrett, the director of the Lake Ontario program. "The cutbacks are slowing down progress but we're not deterred by it; we weren't sur- prised" she says. "We're looking at other fund raising ideas." The trust has already set up a waterfront regeneration fund to handle donations and sponsorship schemes, so Crombie's grand plans are still looking good she adds.

Or — are you receiving welfare or social assis- tance? If you've answered "yes" to either of these questions, the Ministry of Health has some important news for you. Starting July 15, it was .necessary for you to begin paying a small co -payment for your Ontario Drug Benefits. The Ministry of Health has been paying the full cost of prescription drugs for Ontario seniors and people receiving social assistance for many years. Until this year, ours was the only province in Canada that did not have some form of cost-sharing for drug benefits. But Ontario's drug bene- fit costs have tripled over .the last 10 years and now total $1.2 billion each year. As well, the federal govern- ;ment has reduced transfer payments for Ontario's health and social services by $2.1 billion over the next two years and Ontario must now act to preserve its rig programs. ,. The new co -payment will help keep tate drug benefit -system afford" and sus- tainabk. It will keep the system wooing for seniors and others, now and in the future. Now much you pay depends on your income. .You will pay up to $2 per prescription if you are: • single, 65 or over, with a net income of less than $16,018 per year, • a couple, both over 65, with a combined income of less than $24,175 per year, • living in a nursing home, home of the aged or home for special care; • receiving welfare or fami- ly benefits, or • receiving home care. If you're over 65 and don't fall into any of the above groups — you will pay the first $100 of your prescription drug costs for the year. After that, you will pay only the ODB dis- pensing fee of up to $6.11. Some pharmacies may charge less. Your pharmacist will be able to help you with these changes. He or she will tell you which amount you pay. The pharmacist won't have information about your income; just the appropri- ate fee for you. If you feel you are being incorrectly charged, you can apply to change the payment category you're in. All pharmacies will have information sheets and application forms. If you have health insur- ance from a private compa- ny, you may want to call the company. Some plans may cover the co -payment fees for you. Finally, if you're about to turn 65, you'll need to fill out a form so the Ministry of Health can ensure your co -payment fits your income. The forms are available at pharmacies.

Both the public and separate school boards have paid staff devoted solely to assessment review — a responsibility that includes convincing ratepayers to "reassign" their tax support. "Both boards have been can- vassing for support for years," says Durham board trustee chair Audrey MacLean. "I wish we didn't have to do it, but we're in it." Catholic board chair Tom Oldman admits the tax grabbing has been a long-running feud — "as long as there has been two boards" — but he claims that, because of provincial legisla- tion, his staff can't take the ini- tiative in the fight, only react to actions by the public board. "Catholics can support the public board but not vice versa — you must be Catholic to sup- port the separate school board," he explains. "All we can do is tum around and chase the sup- porter back." Oldman adds that the public board tries to target the "most vulnerable" section of separate school ratepayers — empty - nesters and others with no ele- mentary school aged children in the school system. Maclean counters by saying declining revenues from the province makes the hard -sell attitude a necessary part of the business. "If you're marketing a prod- uct you have to target your mar- ket," she says. MacLean insists her staff is not paid by commission, incen- tive or bonus — "we're not that kind of business" — but are paid either a salary or on an hourly basis. She adds that the rival board has more staff devoted to assessment roles than her board. Mike Visconti, the public board's assessment review offi- cer, agrees, saying the separate board has been leading the charge in getting ratepayers to switch allegiances. "Our tax base has been erod- ed by the separate school board," he says. "When the sep- arate school board continues to try to (convince taxpayers) to switch support — they're very active in this — then we have to try to offset that loss in rev- enue." Visconti says the job of his staff (three other full-time employees plus summer stu- dents) is to ensure parents or guardians of children in public elementary schools pay proper- ty taxes into the public school system. He says tenants, who may not know that they — not the landlord — have the right to decide where their tax dollars go, are targeted, usually with literature and personal visits, "We have to maximize the tax base as much as possible for the public school board," Visconti explains. Oldman does admit, if the legislation were changed, his staff would quickly go on the attack, but adds the caveat that such offensive tactics probably wouldn't be necessary. "If the legislation allowed it none of us would be doing it because we would be chasing each other around the block. It would be a saw -off." In the meantime, the two boards will continue to try and scalp each other's tax base, says MacLean. "It's just big business."

And it's only going to get more exciting. Nash, an Ajax resident who plays goaltender for the Whitby Warriors Jr. A lacrosse club, who are in the hunt for the national tick. is also ready to represent his country at the World Junior Field Lacrosse Championships in Tokyo, Japan. "I'm starting to get anxious and excited," said Nash about travelling to Japan. "It's hard to know what to expect in Japan cause we haven't played any of the teams. So that's when the mental preparation comes in." Nash and the rest of his teammates had a success tour of the United States, playing against some U.S. universities. They knocked off Nazareth College, the defending Division 3 NCAA field lacrosse champs 13-9 during their trip south of the border. "It gave us a good chance to play with each other," said Nash of the U.S. tour. Still learning the finer points of goaltending, Nash has only been Playing in goal for five years. Four of those years have been spent in box lacrosse. "There wasn't anybody to go in net one day," recalls Gee. "Mr. Bishop (coach of the Whitby Warriors) gave me a shot and I started to enjoy it." Now he is on the national junior team and is ready to take on the best juniors in the world. Prior to Japan, the only other international experience the 18 year-old Ajax resident has had was as a 10 year-old when he travelled to England as part of an under -13 squad Now, it's quite possible that Nash could be a national and Campbell gets his revenge at World's Pickering resident Damian Campbell has made amends after a dis- appointing finish at the 1995 International Tae - kwon -do Federation Junior World Championships. This year, following the 3rd ITF championships, held this year in Prague, Campbell returned home with a bronze medal. "I wanted revenge," admits Campbell. "I wanted to make up for last yam„ Campbell felt as though he was cheated out of wins at the '95 World's. Losing in the second round last year, much to his displeasure, Campbell 'focused on returning and showing everyone he is one of the best juniors in the world. Competing in the mid - division, Campbell made his point loud and dear by earning a bronze medal. At just 17, Damian is the current two-time Junior Canadian champi- on. But next year, when the Pickering champion turns 18, he will be com- peting in the men's divi- sion. It is a challenge he rel- ishes, being confident he can continue his winning ways. "When I go to the men's division I hcpe to continue - winning Canadian championships and win World's," says Damian. A member at a Tae - kwon -do school in Scarborough, Campbell has his sights set high. With a new-found knowl- edge of being able to 1compete at the Olympics, ;Campbell is now vision- ing representing Canada t the 2000 Olympics. "I definitely want to go to the next Olympics," 'says Damian. "I didn't know I could go. World's was the top (goal). But now that I know I can go to the Olympics, I'll try for everything." To qualify for the Olympics, Campbell will have to compete in World Tae -kwon -do Federation competitions. He has been entering just ITF events, which would not ;have qualified him for Olympic competition. Eight years of hard work has paid off with a World bronze medal. Four more years of the same may pay off with an Olympic medal. Getting to Prague, in the Czech Republic, was a difficult task financially, and the Campbell family would like to thank everyone who helped in wending Damian overseas to compete. world champion in the next couple of months. His Warriors are one step away from competing for the Minto Cup (lacrosse's Jr. A crown) and the national team is considered one of the con- tenders in Japan. Nine players on the Warriors' roster are playing on the national team. Because of the conflicting schedule, the Ontario Jr. A lacrosse league will shut down for two weeks to allow the large amount of players in the league to participate at the Junior Championships. "Over there (Japan) we'll be playing intense and we'll come back home to play an Ontario final," Nash says, adding that he believes his team is ready to contend in Japan. "Obviously, the team wants to win gold "With the potential we have, I think we can do it." - .. ., .... _ .... �� � � ''R;: '.: ^fir--�4nr�,'ta,a+kvtl �....k2 *.• Terrific turnout for Pickering Swim Club at Age Group Provincials The Pickering Swim Club was well represent- ed at the Age Group Provincials held July 4- 7, 1996, in Etobicoke.
