The fund, called CAPEX , is a CRTC -approved, sub- scriber -paid fund set up to allow cable companies to recover some of the capital expenditures, such as equip- ment improvements and ser- vice delivery infrastructure. That money. McTeague points out, was supposed to be returned to customers in 1991, a deadline the CRTC later extended to 1995. Instead, he says, the CRTC allowed cable companies to continue to add from $2 to $5 to subscriber bills each month. "What this amounts to is a tax and they don't have the- right heright to do this," McTeague says. "After fleecing the sub- scribers' pockets with this backroom deal, now the CRTC and the cable compa- nies are divvying up the booty," Actor Jim Carrey, who made $20 trillion to star in The Cable Guy movie, is "strictly amateur" compared to the cable companies, McTeague adds. While the maverick Liberal MP (who fought the cable companies two year,, ago over "negative. billing" prac- tices) accuses the CRTC and the cable companies of "hosing" the public. an executive with Rogers Cable in Toronto defends the C A P E X fund. " T h e money, as a percentage, is very, very small. and it's to cover work already done," says Joan Simkins. 1 under- stand (McTeague's) concerns, but it's critical that the cable companies re -invest in their systems so customers have the new services and range of channels they're asking for." John Cruikshank, a regional general manager with Shaw Cable, points out the CRTC "made no mention" of return- ing any fee increases to sub- scribers in 1986. "That came later, when they said they were going to roll back (the increas- es), retroactively. to sub- scribers. "I think what they did was a fair and equitable way to resolve the issue." The cable companies actu- ally get to keep half of the money generated through CAPEX, after a deal the Canadian Cable Television Association struck with the "Purge" needed at CRTC, says MP Liberal MP Dan McTeague year. appointed from consumer is demanding a "major shake- "What they've done here is groups, such as the Consumer up" at the CRTC, citing cable wrong: there's no justification Association of Canada and the company slush funds and for it.

Pickering rejects offer for library lands by Glenn Hendry Tlie Town of Pickering has turned down a $350,000 offer to buy the Rougemount Library. The purchase offer - which came with a November 30 deadline for acceptance - was discussed at an in -camera meeting two weeks ago. Councillors chose to "take no action" at that time, effectively scut- t6ng the deal, says regional councillor Doug Dickerson. ="Because there was a date ..on the offer, the deal becomes null and void," he explains, adding that coun- cil has yet to declare the land "surplus" - the first step in selling any town -owned land. The would-be buyer's mune was not revealed. The property became unsuitable for a library ear - tier this year when some of he land was expropriated +y • the - province , for the widening of Highway 401. The next step, Dickerson says, is to find a new site for the library, ideally large enough to incorporate a seniors centre/community centre as well. The present site will like- ly go on the open market in the spring and the councillor believes the land will fetch between $400,000 and $500,000. The town has already received more than $200,000 from Queen's Park for the land the trans- port ministry required for the highway widening. Dickerson expects the new facility - his choice is the Rougemount Seniors Centre site on Highway. 2, west of Rougemount Road - will cost between $1 million .and $1.3 million to build. The issue will be dis- cussed in next spring's bud- get talks and Dickerson is hopeful the new facility can be built in 1990; ' CRTC to 1993. The association agreed to donate half of the fund - approximate- ly $300 mil- lion - to pro- m o t e Canadian film making if they could continue to extra bill their sub- scribers for another five years. The other 5300 mil- ' i o n Teaiyue who describes it as a "king's ransom," says the CRTC has given it to the cable compa- nies. "As of January 1, 1995. people should have been given that 5600 million back," McTeague says. " I don't have a problem promoting Canadian programming. but you must tell people." That extra billing has been the major reason cable bills have doubled since 1986. McTeague adds. Shaw Cable subscribers in Pickering pay $18.35 per month for basic cable - with a Ori -cent increase coming January 1, and Rogers Cable users in Ajax pay S 18.7.1 per month, with an 88 - cent raise slated for March 1. McTeague believes the biggest responsibility has to lie with the CRTC on the issue. "The CRTC can't absolve themselves. The people have good reason to be cynical about cable companies but they have to know who mars the real dec:,:ons.'. %I� 4 November 27, 1996 - The Original Bay News Editorial • • • • • • • 0 • • • • • • • 0 • • • • • • • • • Editorial Opinion ..... I ....... ......... .......... The worst is yet to come Yes sir, the more things change, the more they remain the same. Or so it would seem with the police department. Wasn't it just last year, about this time, that Durham taxpayers were being threatened with a Durham Regional Police "either/or": Either we accepted a hike in taxes to fund additional police department needs or we faced serious shortages of trained constables in areas where they were needed most? And now here we are again at budget time. So this year's Durham Regional Police "either/or" reads: Either we accept a hike in taxes for 1997, or we face cuts of up to 80 members from our police department. Curiously coincidental in its timing, yet another "either/or" arrived last week from Durham Police when the)- announced the alarming news that armed robberies were on the increase. Fast approaching an all-time record, the numbers are so serious that either a special task force — made up of 30 officers drawn from other areas of duty — be created to combat the problem, or we accept the possibility of being gunned down in our local convenience store as routine. Don't you just love these "either/ors":' Meanwhile on the health front, doctors are saying either pay us what we're worth or take the risk that you may have to try surviving without the services we pledged to society that we would provide. And the Durham Region Health Department. unbeknownst to almost everyone, has absolved itself of any responsibility for control of head lice in the schools — through a downgrading of the scourge to "nuisance" value. Either each school takes care of screening kids' hair, of everyone goes home scratching — and an epidemic, labelled simply a "nuisance" by the professionals in our health department. goes more or less unchecked It goes without saying that, for both the Durham Regional Police and the Durham Region Health Department — and certainly for the many dedicated doctors in our community — decisions such as these cannot be easy. What terrible times we live in when professionals, in full knowledge of the facts, must compromise so many necessary services so that amateurs in government, ignorant of those facts, can live up to promises matte to a trusting. but ill-informed public. Accepting the problems, and dealing with them, requires a certain strength of purpose. How easy it is to just dump off the funding, and the fall -out, to those farther on down the line. , .. Across-the-board slashing of funding was not bio unnecessary, it was also irresponsible. Because it required no thought, it also received no plamling. And so we pay, not just in Increased taxes but also in loss of services and quality of life. There can be little doubt, much worse is yet to come. An epidemic of head lice, or a shortage of police, may not signal all that much right now. But initial symptoms seldom do. t4 Eku4 Bill not selected in recent lottery Dear Editor, You will recall that I wrote to you this summer asking for your readers to consider sending me their suggestion for an official pledge of allegiance to the Canadian Flag. I introduced Bill C-3202 in June, legislation which would establish an official pledge (or oath) of allegiance to our beloved maple leaf flag. The Bill was not selected in the recent lottery which determines, at random, which Private Members' Bills will be debated in the House of Commons in the next few weeks. However, I am hopeful that it will be selected in the next lottery which should take place before the end of the year. As you may know, the idea for this Bill originated with Joyce Hammond, a pre-school teacher from Guelph, who believes that an official pledge (or oath) would encourage her students to wand to learn more about Canada, and 'to give Canadians, in her words, "roots and a feeling of belonging." I agree, and introduced the legislation in the House of Commons in June. The legislation calls on Parliament to consult with Canadians on the oath's wording, so that it will truly be our oath. The oath can be used before classes begin, before Council meetings, or wherever the flag is prominent. Its wording is to be left to the people who will recite the oath, that is the people of Canada. It does not replace the Oath of citizenship, but instead complements it. I continue to welcome suggestions from your readers. Canadians from every part of this great country have contacted me, and it is evident that we love this country, the greatest nation on earth! M.P.

Aware of the serious shortcomings of existing legislation -- which allows unrestricted smoking in restaurants, retail stores, elevators, day nurseries, financial institutions, hair salons and many other public places -- the town has moved to update its policy, using the current by-laws of Pickering and Whitby as models. Under the proposed legislation, restaurants must have at least 25% of their space designated as smoke free by March of 1997, with the amount doubling to 50% by 1999. All other public places previously affected and many more, would become 100% smoke free in 1997. (Bars, taverns and areas of restaurants serving primarily alcohol would be exempt). Even bingo halls and bowling alleys, both long-time smoking strongholds, would have to be designated 15% no -smoking by January of 1997, and 25% in 1999. The changes, however, failed to impress one health advocate. Brenda Pemberton - Pigott, a Pickering physiotherapist with experience in treating respiratory illness, was "disappointed" with the Proposal, stating that it fell short of its already too -lenient models. The sample by-law didn't earn praise from the local business community either. Lesley Whyte, Ajax -Pickering Board of Trade GM, indicated that the area's businesses would only grudgingly support it. Reporting the results of a survey on the proposal, Whyte stated that a majority of participants "expressed great opposition to more government intervention." She specified that local restaurant owners were most Region f tax hike Witty warns residents to pay up or lose cops by Glenn Hendry Durham taxpayers could face a tax hike next year, or face the loss of as many as 80 police department employees, says regional chairman Jim Witty.

The police board had hoped to set aside $2 million in the '97 budget but Witty admits the region may not be able to afford the system this year. Staff Supt. ]krek Denson said the cornmunication system is very impOrtaru - the current radia system uses 1976 technology - and has "already been delayed several years."

So there's very link opportunity to shave the budget," he motes. 'This will end up being a political decision." Council did make one political decision however. if the police board is unable to reduce its budget by $.12 million, the tax increase would be identified and explained on municipal tax bills. Ajax Mayor Steve Parish wanted to eliminate the "clear and separate disclosure" amendment but was roundly defeated by councillors who insisted the public "know where their money is going."

Council, on the other hand, endorsed the proposal as a compromise between health concerns and business interests. Mayor Steve Parish stated that it "redresses the imbalance" between the no - smoking policies of Ajax and its neighbours, and still manages to treat business fairly.

(But) what we are doing is a significant step. It is a balancing of the respective rights of the parties involved. I think this is a reasonable compromise," he said. Councillor Joe Atkinson, who would have lilted to see a more restrictive proposal, also supported it as politically expedient. "The clerk could have created a much tougher by-law. It would have failed (to satisfy council). There's no question...The point is that this by-law moves us along the continuum," said Atkinson. Other members of council backed the by-law for its light - handed approach, arguing that "market forces and the law of supply and demand." not town council, should push the matter further. "I don't think this is an area where the municipality should be leading the charge, but watching it," regional councillor Jim McMaster said. Councillor Scott Crawford agreed. "As a member of this council, I don't think it is my role to dictate to the business people of this town how they run their businesses," he stated. Both councillors expressed concerns that a tougher by-law would be unfair to local businesses by putting them at a competitive disadvantage with respect to businesses in surrounding municipalities and by saddling them with the financial burden of remodelling facilities in order to comply:.

Make every shot count] That may as well have been the watchword as the Pickering M&M Meat Storea/Canadian Tire Panthers major atom "AA" hockey team came away with a win and a tie in two recent games, Two in a raw. For the second consecutive season, the Pine Ridge Pumas Secondary School senior girls basketball team has captured the Lake Ontario Secondary School 4ssociation championship. Pine Ridge knocked off Father xo Austin Catholic Secondary khool last week 58-50 at Austin to repeat as champs. It wasn't an easy task, though. After losing two of their star players from last gar's squad, the Pumas had to rely on a balanced team with no supc mar to cam' the load. "I congratulated the girls for their pertormance because we were playing on their (Austin) home court." says Pine Ridge coach Pam Masaies, who lists the road win as one of the reasons she was gnaw ng ear to car with the victory. "With all the hype with Dwyer and Austin and their provincial rankings, to come in bete and win is incredible. The girls are incredible and they're a wonderful team. "It was easier with this group 'cause we didn't have to rely on one or two players. - Shutting down Austin's superstar guard, Tania Chappell, is no easy task. But Pine Ridge slowed down the efforts of the soon -lo -be premier player in the league enough to enable Them to be competitive with the Austin Wildcats and force her to make mistakes. While Chappell did manage to score 24 points, the constant double teaming and sometimes triple teaming, took its toll.
