"It wasn't the (Ontario Public Service Employees Union) OPSEU members I know. They were goons. Thev had buttons on that said `goons'," Ms. Ecker says. At one point, she and some other MPPs were attempting to enter the Qucen's Park building, but were pushed back by an Ontario Provincial Police riot squad member. "I said 'I'm an MPP'," Ms. Ecker reports. It took her more than two hours to get into the legisla- ture building because of the confrontation.

Some MPPs didn't get in Council Still shooting for Town tax freeze FROM PAGE 1 There was a $900,000 discrep- ancy, according to Ward 1 Regional Councillor Maurice Brenner. Coun. Brenner says Town treasurer Jim Walls told him that in presenting the budget figures to councillors, Town staff may have overlooked the cutback in municipal grants imposed on Pickering in January by the proyln;:ial government. Town manager Tim Sheffield said at Council's Monday night meeting he didn't know the details of the situation because hc*d been in Toronto most of the day.

Under the preliminary budget passed by councillors before the discrepancy was discovered. about $1.8 million was to be spent from Pickering's reserves while approximately $1.1 million was to be contributed to the reserves this year. The Town is expected to spend a total of about $36 million in 1996, of which approximately $15 million will come from tax revenue, with the rest coming from sources such as user fees and provincial transfers. The preliminary budget rec- ommendations approved by councillors are scheduled to go to Pickering's executive commit- tee Monday, March 25 and to Council for final approval Mon- day, April. 1.

Ebbing tide of support Any tide of public empathy that lav with the striking OPSEU workers three week,, ago is rapidly ebbing as the pickets. increasingly desperate to prove themselves powerful, have instead proven themselves cowards. What else can you call people who would keep their neiehhors from entering public premises'' Is there am other word for those.who would join a mob blocking duly -elected representatives of the people from entering Queen's Park legislative building,'' We sa) not. The striking worker, have the right to express their own opinions. They have the right to walk the picket line: But when they begin to hurl insults and garbage at the Tory MPPS they themselves helped to elect. when they demand identification of private citizens minding their own business. when they hamper resi- dents' rights to drive a car onto the grounds of a public facility. they go too far. Those on the picket line would like to think they have the respect of the community for doing some- thing they believe in. and yet they show the com- munity no respect in return. OPSEU (some of whose members will, under the cloak of anonvmity, whine that media coverage has been biased) has in fact been its own worst public relations enemy. The disgraceful behavior demonstrated by pick- ets at Queen's Park Monday has blackened the image of the union. We did. after all, elect the current government to do the job it's trying to do. The OPSEU members all had the chance to cast a vote. Now, they elect to cast garbage and wonder why public support lies elsewhere.

This is a story of kindness and has a happy ending, so read on. At a time in my life when my faith in human kind was at an all-time low., I am happy to say a kind gentleman restored my faith. On Thursday Feb. I, 1 discovered my car had a flat tire. My car was parked in a very busy mall in Ajax. Armed with determination, my owner's manual and my dear friend, we were going to replace my flat with my spare. We were dressed in tights and skirts, as we were at work, and the day was freezing cold. We had just placed the jack under the car when a gentleman offered his assistance. He had a heart condition so he was physi- cally unable to change my tire, but he generously offered me a can of "tire sealant", which magically re -inflates the lire so the car can be driven to a nice warm place to be repaired.

I hope you read this article and rc,:ognize your gtxxl deed and know how much i appreciate your kindness.

It invoked instant laughter, not only from myself, but from all those I showed it to! Thank you for lighting up my day. Anton Kopp Pickering No wonder Golden Report was rejected To the editor: It may not give off a metallic glow,but the obscene amount of our tax dough put aside by our Regional representatives as a "golden gand- shake"(a.k.a. severance pay) for them- selves, sure must put a glow on their faces! As much as $1 million for the chairman? Perhaps this may help to explain why the "Golden Report" wass so vigorously rejected by them. Messrs Al Leach and Mike Harris, please note! Jim McLean Ajax Opinion Union thuggery won't score points As I was pulling into the parking lot at the Oshawa Centre Monday, I passed what was billed as a picket line. in fact, a handful of 'pickets' were sitting in lawn chairs sunning themselves at the Gibh Street entrance while the picket working the hardest was a Ione sign wedged in it shopping cart at the roadside. Excuse me if 1 don't feel any sym- pathy for striking Ontario Public Scrvice Ernployees Union (OPSF.U) members. don't see people braving the cold in a fevered attempt to tight the big bad wolf known as Ontario. What I sce is a union which, like its counter- parts, is holding on desperately to tra- ditions and practices which are out- dated, and in tact detrimental to their own member. What I sec is a small group of bit- ter people who are attempting to h()ld the rest of' the province for ransom while thev try to stop the business of running the Province. I give up in,, tax dollars grudgingly enough with- out seeing them blown on ricA pc)licc called in to protect the legislature from the strong -am) tactics of a des- perate union. I Ontario, nay Canada, is in a state of rapid transition. Like the agricul- tural revolution before it, the industri- al age is fast slipping away to make r(x)m for a new era in business that will see a new set of rules for the workplace. We cannot hope to com- pete in a global marketplace. where rapidly changing technology and tlx: ability to change tactics on a moment's notice are the new noun. with a workforce that expectsjobs bs for life and presumes it should dictate the operating procedures of business. Too often do I hear complaints from people, union and non-union alike, that technology is eliminating jobs. Very rarely do I hear that state- ment followed up with discussion about how to tum the negative into a positive through retraining and edu- cation. If every college and university in this country filled every spot they have for computer courses, there would still be a shortfall of qualified people to meet the needs of comput- er-based businesses. Wake up and smell the coffee, people! While the private sector has been toning up and putting its house in order for the past five years, the public sector has escaped relatively unscathed. With the number of OPSEU members attempting to cross picket lines, one has to wonder who wants to work WITH the government and who wants to BE the govern- ment.

WED., MARCH 20, 1996 -PAGE 9-A Police start charging for funeral escort costs g g By CINDY UPSHALL DURHAM SrAFF DCTRIIAM — You'll have to dig a little deeper into your pockets for a police escort at a loved one's funeral. The Durham Regional Police Service began charging March 1 for police escorts for funerals. a ser- vice previously provided free. "We felt ... if a funeral director. or the family, wants a police escort it should be up to those individuals to pay for it, not the taxpayers," says Superinten- dent Derek Den- son, who notes several other pe)fice departments in the province also charge. The cost for a police funeral escort is now $ 100 per police car (usually two cars are necessary). a S20 administration fee and S37 an officer per hour, with a three-hour minimum. The new fees apply to any smice police provide where a car and officer are required. This includes wide -load escorts and bkx-k- ing off streets dur- ing filming. Thesc services will now be pro- vided by off-duty officers, not on - duty as was past pracucc:. "It's user pay. says Inspector Ross Smith. "It's a common situation in today's econo- my.., Although Insp. Smith says the fees may be unpopular, he feels the new system will better serve the community. He explains that previously if a funeral director requested an escort, police would do it fnae of charge. However, officers could be called away to jeal with a higher The new sys- tem will guarantiee an escort will be available. Insp. Smith estimates that police do about 700 escorts per year. "II honestly believe this is a better situation for The funeral direc- tor," says Insp. Smith. "(The director) can walk out of the; building and know the officers are going to be there and know the escort is going to be there." While Insp. Smith thinks the new situation is an improvement, one local funeral director thinks the situation is anything but heavenly. "I'm very upset about it," says Cory Kuipers of the Northcutt Elliott Funeral Ilome in Bowmanville. '"('hat's a lot of money for a family that's already dishing out 54,000 or $5,000 for a funeral" Some people wait for a rainy day. Some people know better. FATON- - '� L - ,A4 000 1 mod MEN'S.

A request by the owner of an Oshawa poultry processing plant that Durham hire meat inspectors was rejected 25-3 by Durham Region Council last Wednes- day, a day before the Ontario Labor Relations Board refused a provincial government application to order striking meat inspectors back to work. Durham medical officer of health Dr. Robert Kyle said the Region shouldn't appoint him meat inspector because he doesn't have the skills to do the job. He's concerned that if any tainted meat is sold and eaten, the Region could be held liable. The portion of Ontario's Meat Inspection Act that states each med- ical officer of health "is, by virtue of office, an inspector" is a "relic" dating back to the 1930s. Dr. Kyle said. All 10 slaughter houses in Durham are monitored by provincial meat inspectors. There are no feder- ally -inspected meat processing plants in the region. The Ontario Labor Relations Board ruled in May that 26 inspec- tors — 16 OPSEU members and 10 managers — are considered essen- tial. The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has ruled that provincially -licensed slaughter houses must be shut down during the strike.

Margo McNab, speaking for Ahdulkader Patel, the owner of Hafiz Halal Poultry in -Oshawa, said, "The withdrawal of provincial meat inspection ser- vices for the duration of the OPSEU strike has caused Mr. Patel serious economic harm and may indeed cost him his plant." Mr. Patel bought the former Litz poultry plant on Bloor Street East in August and start- ed his operation in December. His plant offers fully -sanctioned Halal poultry to the Muslim community and is Nancy Diamond Region won't assist in strike breaking the only such plant in North America, Ms. McNah said.

It doesn't seem right to allow this business to dwindle away when you could do some- thing about it," she said. Mr. Patel has laid off 10 employees since the strike began, she noted. The plant owners "are asking you to take an active role in strike break- ing. An unfortunate reality of the strike is it's affecting small businesses," OPSEU spokesman Paula Thompson said. Some of the 3,000 OPSEU members in Durham could lose their jobs and pcn- sions because of planned government layoffs, she noted. The Province has announced it will lay off between 13,000 and 27,000 employ- ees. "We're told we have to deal with it. accept it. It's a harsh reality. It's a harsh reality Mr. Patel and others in business will have to face," she said. "We don't want to see anyone go out of business, but being in business is a risk.' Oshawa Mayor Nancy Diamond said. "If we name a meat inspector, we're naming replacement workers and we'll be assisting in strike breaking. That's not the role of this council." Good I rices from the Food People.

On April 1, at Toronto's Metro Hall, the Recycling Council of Ontario (RCO) will sponsor a one - day forum enti- tled House- hold Haz- ardous Waste Stewardship: Forging New Alliances. Recent trends have foster stewardship and to develop action plans to advance development of HHW management pro- grams and solutions. Some of larraine roulston The tecycler's Report made it clear that Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) is an issue whose time has come. Municipal governments are concerned about the high costs of handling and dis- posing of HHW and some provincial governments are moving to mandate its recovery. The purpose of the forum is to promote a com- mon understanding of the facts and issues, provide governments and industry an opportunity to share per- spectives and resources: the chal- lenges are to encourage product reformula- tion by industry to use less haz- ardous ingre- dients: to identify the most appro- priate system for collect- ing, reusing, recycling or disposing HHW: and to educate the public on the sage use and disposal of HHW as well as erwourag- ing the use of more benign or green alternates.

"They all cried and I was crying, o," reports Jack. "It was something Im, had been working for over the past hree years and I think they were just ncrwhclmcd. They couldn't believe it-, hcv were in shock." The eight -member St. Mary troupe oinpleted the preliminary round of the 41mpetition and was among five "ho ols to advance to the finals. Other !finalists were Kitsilano High School of Vancouver, Westwood Collegiate from Pon McMurray, Alberta, Cawthra Park .:haul from Mississauga and Canter- hur High School from Ottawa which, up until last year, had won the competi- non for six straight years. Jack notes the gold medal remained in doubt until the final announcement. til five finalist schools turned in strong efforts, with the competition consisting of 15 seconds for each team to discuss their improvisation, and four minutes to act it out. As well, an audience sugges- tion had to be incorporated into the four -minute skit. The St. Mary troupe won top marks for 'story' and 'style' categories. "You can train and train and work on your skills, but this was a night when everything clicked," Jack says. The St. Mary team attained a score of 320 out a possible 350 in the 'style' improvisation which explored the roots of reggae music, with the whole story 'ung in reggae style. The St. Mary team's 'story' improvi- tion delved into Shakespeare's Mac- •th and used a rather humorous 'tragic aw' during the course of the four- inute play. At the suggestion of the udience, the St. Mary actors incorpo- aced an obsession with earrings as acBeth's 'tragic flaw'. "They really had to know the basic lements of Macbeth" to pull off the provisation, ' says Jack. After the conclusion of the prelimi- round, the team got a boost in the of an encouraging fax from Pick - ng Mayor Wayne Arthurs. "I don't know whether that kick start - us or not. But, they were just thrilled. was very exciting," Jack says. Tto qualify for the national improvi- 'onal showcase, the St. Mary troupe on the silver medal at the Southern ntario Region Improv Games at the rd Centre for the Performing Arts in Tonto earlier in the month.

Greetings: Rabbit design: Some Bunny Loves You or Hoppy Easter. Egg design: Get Crackin' on a Happy Easter. EASY EGG PAINTING THE ENVIRONMENTAI, EGG: Try dying your egg with natural colorants. Boil onion skins, spinach, beets or tea leaves in water. Add about a teaspoon of vinegar for every cup of water to fix the color. Dip eggs into the dye. HOMEMADE EGG DYES: For a more traditional colored egg, get Iour cups and till each one half way with water. Add a tea- spoon of vinegar to each. Then add 20 drops of food coloring to each (using a different color for each cup). Using a large spoon, dip preboiled eggs into the cup leaving the egg in until the desired depth of color is achieved. If you want to create a pattern, put masking tape on the egg before submersing. After the eggs dry let the kids use markers, stickers, crayons and cut-outs to decorate. Or, give them old fabric scraps and glue to make clothes and hats for their eggs. Inexpensive egg cups can also he decorated or clothed. EGG BASKETS Once the kids have their eggs painted, let them create a basket to put them in using an egg carton. Use pipe cleaners to attach a handle, stickers and markers to decorate and some decorative straw (optional) for the eggs to sit in. GAMES Egg Knocking: Each player takes a boiled egg in his right hand and knocks the pointed end with that of another player. The idea is to break the other person's eggshell without cracking your own. Older kids might want to up the stakes by playing with raw eggs, but make sure they wash well afterwards. Egg Rolling: Roll hard-boiled eggs down a hill to see which one will get to the bottom first. A variation of this is to roll the eggs close together so they bang into each other. The winner is the person whose egg lasts the longest, uncracked. Don't forget to put distinguishing marks on each egg before let- ting them go.

The Muppet creators have the unique ability to captivate kids with silliness, yet slide in enough wry one-liners to make the grown-ups chuckle. My favorite in this film: as the old sailor Billy Bones is on his death bed, the kids in the audience are a little shaken, and Gonzo looks straight into the camera and says, "He's dying? But this is supposed to be a kids' movie!" Muppet Treasure Island is Brian Henson's (son of the late Jim) second film as director, following 1994's A Muppet Christmas Carol. Henson admits to creating "not a very faithful adaptation" of the classic Robert Louis Stevenson tale. The cast is the typical gang: Kermit plays Captain Smollet, Miss Piggy his love interest, and Gonzo and Rizzo the Rat play themselves. Most of your favorites are in there — Fozzie Bear, Sam the Eagle (as Mr. Arrow, the first mate), Sweetums, Beaker, even the Another treasure for Muppet Swedish Chef fans, Muppet Treasure Island makes a cameo stars all of our favorites in a not- appearance. The so -faithful adaptation. big human star is Tim Curry, perfectly cast as Long John Silver. I think you have to be a Muppet fan to enjoy Muppet Treasure Island. You have to accept the limitations of what are still just puppets and enjoy the corniness of it all. A warning to fi 0 Entertainment parents of young children; there are some pretty overwhelming — and downright scary — scenes in Muppet Treasure Island. A few of the children in the screening I attended got too scared and had to take a break in the lobby. Muppet Treasure Island opened Feb. 16. WI Pocahontas (Walt Disney/Buena Vista) — She's back. That ravaging, tree -hugging peacenik, Pocahontas , is now available on video. Probably the most controversial full- length animated picture Disney has every produced, Pocahontas has the traditional Disney assets of exquisite animation, well-written songs, and some delightful characters. It isn't their best work, but it belongs on the shelf with The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast. The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (Walt Disneti•/Buena Vista) — The 20 -year-old Disney adaptation of A.A. Milne's wonderful stories is being re-released this month, with the addition of some "behind -the -scenes bonus programming" featuring some of the original creators, voice talent and animators. The Pooh films were originally released as "featurettes", then packaged as a full-Irn,th film in 1977. They are 15 • DURHAM Parent • MARCH 1996 relatively true to Milne's work, though sometimes packing in more action at the expense of the frivolity of the silly - old -bear, his animal friends, and the comparatively brilliant Christopher Robin. The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is available at video retailers beginning March 27. You Can Fly a Kite (Blackboard Entertainment) — With the warmer winds of spring comes kite -flying season and what better way to inspire the kids to get into the spirit of the season than through their favorite medium — video. You Can F!)• a Kite shows kids how to (and how not to) build their own kites and provides an introduction to the world of competitive precision kite -flying, where the kites have more than one string and the flyers get a truly athletic work-out. Of course, rather than watch other people having fun, it's probably better to get the kids off the couch and to the closest wide open field. But sometimes that's not possible.

Rick Scott is a Vancouver musician who plays the Appalachian dulcimer, a stringed instrument you might mistake for a lute. Philharmonic Fool includes 13 original - some brilliant - songs. The highlight is Wild Bunnies of Kitsilano, a romp of a tune that celebrates the real wild rabbits of Jericho Beach in Vancouver. (I am particularly fond of this song since I lived at Jericho Beach as a child - though I don't remember any wild bunnies then). Apparently, listeners at one Vancouver radio station are calling for a moratorium on the song because they can't stop singing the catchy little tune. As the name suggests, Philharmonic Fool is full of good music performed by a pretty goofy fellow. A great combination. Scott also tours like crazy (he's in Asia now) so watch for concerts coming up- You can order Philharmonic Fool by calling 1-800- 6334282. The View from Here: Tough Assignment (TVOntario) — If you've ever \%ondcred what it might be like to stand in front of a classroom full of contemporary inner-city teenagers, this 90 -minute documentary, produced by the National Film Board, will give you a pretty clear picture. Tough Assignment. featured on TVO's The View From Here March 20 and 24, follows a year in the life of four high school teachers at Toronto's Oakwood Collegiate. If these four teachers are at all indicative of the calibre of teaching going on in high schools, our kids are in pretty good hands. Each, in their own way, is effective and committed, yet clearly burnt out by the lip and attitude they deal with everyday. T ough Assignment is not horrific; it's not about Big Issues like school violence or teen pregnancy. Still, it's a pretty disheartening portrait of the next generation and the frustrations of some truly good teachers. Any concerned parent will find it fascinating. Your kids might get something out of it too but, be warned, there are some frank discussions about sex in guidance class, swearing and sexually explicit graffiti. Nothing they won't see in school. Tough Assignment airs Wednesday, March 20 at 10 p.m. and Sunday. March 24 at 11:30 p.m. on TVOntario. It is also available on video from the NFB by calling 1-800-267-7710. The Berenstain Bears (Showcase) - Most kids like the books. NmA, Showcase Television is airing the animated Hanna - Barbera television series. The show focuses on Brother and Sister Bear and their efforts to save Beartown from the evil doings of the Weasel Underground. Of course, Papa Q. Bear is his usual gullible and misguided self. The Berenstain Bears airs Sunday mornings at 8 a. m. Wishbone (YTL' and TVOntario) - This new American live-action show may be one of the weirdest television programs produced for children in a long time. Wishbone is a Jack Russell terrier (the Frasier dog) who talks without moving his mouth. His owner is a 12 -year-old American boy who faces typical 12 -year-old problems. Wishbone always offers a literary parallel to his contemporary friends' dilemmas which then takes us back to the time of, say, Shakespeare or Sherlock Holmes. Wishbone plays one of the central literary figures and. by the end of a half-hour episode, we've learned a little about a great work of fiction and a lot about human nature: Here's a typical synopses of one episode: -Joe learns the price of instant gratification when a sneaky salesman tries to make a deal with him. Meanwhile, Wishbone as Geothe's Faust makes a deal with the devil he'll never forget-" Wishbone is highly entertain-ing for an overtly educational show. It is intended for viewers aged six to eleven.

The touring Sesame Street crew are giving Toronto area kids 10 performances when they come to the O'Keefe Centre Mar. 20 to 24. The title is When l Grow Up and the lesson is that it's okay if you don't know what you want to be yet (phew!).

Finally the baby, satisfied that its needs had been met, gave out a final cry and fell silent. The baby's name is Baby Think About It. The Durham Board of Education hopes that's exactly what the life -like doll will help teens do. There is currently a Baby Think About It doll in six Durham schools. The doll has a microchip to run its program which not only makes the doll cry but also records any abuse or neglect. If its cry is not tended to within three inures or the doll is not fed properly, a ccord is made of the neglect. If the stu- .ient throws the doll down in frustration ,,r abuses it in any way, again, the action recorded for the supervising teacher to <ilke note. Certain types of abuse will cause the program to shut down as there's a defen- ,,ive mechanism which protects its tpensive innards. Students are not to allow any smoke .hound the baby. Because the doll picks up odors easily, the teacher can tell if this rule has been violated. All these actions will then be calculated into the _rade of the student who took on the responsibility of parent. But more impor- tant than the grade achieved is the lesson learned — the realities of parenthood. Pine Ridge Secondary School in Pickering was the first school in Durham to receive one of the 10 -pound dolls.

"When they were out with friends they found everybody staring at them. They're dealing with a lot of their own emotions." The Baby Think About It doll is not sent out in isolation of other parenting training. In addition to the hands-on experiment, students are required to do a budget for a teen parent and examine other aspects of the parenting process. Because the dolls are expensive — a few hundred dollars each — there are many schools still waiting for their own Baby Think About It. But, given the high cost to society of teenage pregnancy, Ms. King relates, "Even with the first student who took it out it had paid for itself." ew Reg«ter«rgs aterrttr� 9494&# It W4tat41t& mese u-04 9".2 detr14cg at a uaaoaa&C ptiac.

Numbers today indicate upwards of 15 per cent of all children have asthma. Some research puts that number as high as 20 per cent. One of the reasons is the broadening of the definition of what asth- ma is. In past years only wheezing chil- dren were diagnosed as having asthma, though in fact fewer than half the young- sters with asthma actually display this symptom. Asthma is a respiratory disease which creates breathing difficulties due to an increased sensitivity or "twitchiness" of the bronchial tubes in the lung. The tubes become narrowed and partially blocked when triggered by an allergy or irritant, causing difficulty in breathing. "It's simi- lar to breathing through a straw," explains Ajax -Pickering General Hospital respiratory therapist Kim Parr. Though it isn't known why some chil- dren develop asthma while others don't, there are a number of contributing factors believed to increase the opportunity for asthma to develop. These include heredi- ty, exposure in the first few months of life to house dust, pet dander and ciga- rette smoke as well as allergies of various types. More than 50 per cent of children with asthma are allergic to dust mites which live in materials like blankets, pillows, stuffed animals, mattresses and carpets as well as damp areas of' the home. If your child sneezes when you vacuum, sweep or dust, the dust mite is likely a trigger allergen. Other common allergies include animal dander (especially from cats), pol- lens and molds and, on rare occasions, food allergies. How do you know if your child has asthma? In the very young child it may initially he difficult to make a diagnosis because traditional symptoms such as wheezing are not always present.

Here he uses his `puffer' with the aid of his mother, Melanie Wilson. Recurring chest infections and colds that don't improve quickly, even with antibi- otic treatment, may in fact be symptoms of undetected asthma. In older children, recurrent coughing bouts, wheezing and shortness of breath are symptoms which likely point to asth- ma. If you are suspicious, you should see your family doctor for an evaluation and physical exam.

Parr says it is important to have your doctor assess the situation in order to avoid an urgent trip to the hospi- tal. She recommends using a 'peak flow meter' on a regular basis. It will let you know if your child's lung capacity is diminishing. "You should have precau- tionary areas," she recommends. "Sometimes the reaction is immediate, but usually there is a building up. a warn- ing. It's the ones who let it go too late that end up at emergency."
