One of the longest delays was in orthopedic surgery, where the wait was 8.7 weeks in Toronto and 12.3 in the rest of the GTA. Waiting periods out- side Toronto were equal or shorter in specialties such as general surgery, gynecology, internal medicine and neuro- surgery. The survey also detailed the imbalance between Toronto and the rest of the GTA in the availability of ser- vices such as MRI scans, CT scans, dialysis and radiation therapy for cancer patients.

B}' LINDA WHITE S rAFF REPC)RTFR Social service agencies which lend a helping hand to families of children with disabilities face a difficult struggle as limited resources keep them from doing as much as they'd like. "We know dozens of families who are in desper- ate situations and we know that this is because the sup- port their children need is not available." says Maureen Emmons, presi- dent of the Ajax -Pickering - Whitby Association for Community Living. "It's not available because funding for devel- opmental ly- handicapped People is at a much lower level in Durham than the average in the province." she saes. Other agencies face simi- lar difficulties. "Wc tr to do w hatcver we can to get resources out to families, but there's an end to what we can do." admits May ah Scvink. director of Durham Association for Family Respite Services. The agency has an actiyc list of almost 4(X) tamtllcs In need of respite and assis- tance in finding financial support from vari- ous programs throughout the region. And while it can provide "at (cast some ser- vice" to each of those, about half woull like more help than the agency is able to provide, says Ms. Se\ ink. "Most (social sen ice) agencies arc at or above their limit, in terms of num- bers." notes Ms. Scvink, who wel- comes restructur- ing of the funding of agencies but fears "there's a real danger in focusing exclu- sively on efficien- cy. We're dealing with people's lives. We can't treat them like machines." But the system isn't currently up to par, Ms. Sevink agrees, pointing to regular calls from families who can no longer cope with caring for their disabled child. "Especially around busier times, like Christmas, we will be getting a call every week from families who've just had it." Ms. Sevink say s. "Seeing families beaten down like that is really diffi- cult. i know the Minister (of Community and Social Services)Seices) receives letters daily from families" lobby- ing for change. "That's a lot of work on top of what they already do." she says of par- ents fighting for increased support. The search for financial support to help families cope is also difficult. according to Ms. Sevink. "It's a pretty confusing field." she says of social ser- vices. "There are little pots of money here and little puts of money there." Getting money from those pots "is a huge amount of work. Even with all that work. you're never assured you're going to get anything. fight. It's always a It tends to -Acar people down. If you have to keep fighting for a buck. it's really devastating if you come up empty-hand- ed. The process is "heart - wrenching," according to Ajax resident Dawn Roper. whose I -3 -year-old daughter Carolyn Latour has Rhett's Syndrome and can't walk or talk. has lo,,t the ahiGt,, to "A,1iik'.k and must %kcar a dia�cr DAWN ROPER Parents have to beg. going from one pot of money to another begging -- and it is begging -- as you bare your heart and soul. You have to portray your child in a terrible light. We want to focus on our chil- dren's positives, but they don't want to hear that. It's depressing. It's soul destroy- ing." Ms. Roper received $20,000 last year from Special Services at Home Funding from the ministry. This year, she has been cut back to a recently -imposed ceiling of 510,0(X1. "The people who need the money the most are being hurt the most," she says of the cutback. %Is. Roper maintains "there's a lot of money in the system. You aren't going to find a parent who doesn't think there's enough money, province -wide. It's just how (the government) spends it." .But as parents continue to cope with limited sup- port, "you are seeing ener- getic, creative and caring families being damaged," says Ms. Swink. "it's diffi- cult to watch. We keep plug- ging and they do too." It's particularly difficult to meet with older parents at or near retirement who fear for the future of their dis- abled child. "When you meet with them, their first worry is what's going to happen to their child." Ms. Sevink reports. "It's a real point of panic. We are look- ing at people who are really vulnerable." Minister of Communitv and Social Services and Durham West MPP Janet Ecker recently announced an additional 515 million to support families whose chil- dren have developmental disabilities. Of that. $6 mil- lion is to be directed to developmentally -disabled adults being cared for at home by aging parents. While there aren't enough group homes for disabled children and adults, hls. Scsink wonders if the demand would decrease if families had more support caring for their children at home. "For many who want a group home, it's not a ques- tion of a real choice.

The Province cur- rently pays 90 per cent and municipali- ties 20 per cent. In return, the provincial government will take funding for education off the property tax bill. "It's an unfair burden on Toronto and that will he bad for all of us," Mayor Parish says. He notes that, during a recession, welfare costs will climb, leaving munic- ipalities with hard deci- sions to make. "Welfare is volatile. You never know when cases will go up. In the last recession they went up quickly and dramati- cally," Mayor Parish says. "During a recession, welfare caseloads can suddenly go up 50 per cent or more. What do you do'? How do you react'? If it's midway through the year, you can't raise taxes and couldn't if you wanted to. We'd have to plunder ser- vices like police." In a recession, if an outlying commu- nity has difficulty paying for welfare, "those people will naturally gravitate to Toronto with its better services. " I'he extra effect on Toronto, with more poor people in Toronto combined with tax reassessment, wealthier people will flee Metro. We'll replicate what we saw in New York and Detroit. That is just not the way to go," Mayor Parish says. "It's a matter of principle. The social safety net, income redistribution, taking care of the most unfortunate has to be done by the Province, with all the taxing powers and the deep pockets they have," he contends. "The government knows, if this is such a piece of cake, why did it set up a fund (to help municipalities that can't pad their portion of the welfare tab)"? In a serious recession, the fund will be gone in no time. Then what hap- pens'?" Mayor Parish won- ders. WAYNE ARTHURS 'Not proper' to burden property taxpayers.

"She felt it was pre- mature because we don't have the whole picture of the government's plans. I don't agree with that. We have the broad picture from mega -week," he says. Mayor Parish is hop- ing the stance taken by the GTA Mayors and Regional Chairmen will help convince the Province to change its position. "I hope they do. This government. what they've announced, are doing a lot of things right -- things we've asked them to do, like property assessment. It's gutsy, but a government had to do it and they're doing it. Nobody out there sees (downloading welfare) as the right thing to do, except this government." He points to opposition to the move, including last week's announcement by the Metro Toronto Board of Trade. If the Tories reverse their position, "Nobody will think ill of this govern- ment.

Given that all fOur Durham MPPs are on the government side. it would went to make political sense that the Tones would like to keep Durham happy. It may conk as a surprise. howev- er, that on a pt►pulauon-based funding chart. health care in Durham is w a% helow the provincial average of S7W per person. In Durham. it's onl% S -4(l(). Nk'hs is this so' Its likely funding has not kept up with the rapid csLalation in population. NN'hilt hospital lacihtics have remained stagnant with little building and expansion in the works over the past two decades (save the latest fund-raising project at Oshawa General Hospital i, the Region's population has more than doubled. Certain IN. health care Iunding and tacil- itics havc failed to keep pace. «'aitine lists in the flour y05-;trea regions i Halton. Peel. York and Durham) are much longer than in Toronto. Mose who need orthopedic surgery in l'oronto must wait an avcra,,e of h.7 weeks while the waiting timc in the rest otthe GIA is 12.3 weeks. A comparison ol' Toronto w ith the rest of the GTA show s a marked discrepancy in total hospital funding. Toronto gets 72.7 per cent of total GTA-ho%pital funding while the 905 -arra regions get dust 27.3 per cent. This occuri despite a balance in population bLtwecn the two areas. For a number of vears now there has been a complaint about over -taxation of Mlctro -Toronto to pay fir 905 -area services. This is one case: \& here the reverse i, certainly true. A high per- centage of health care dollars are going to Toronto while Durham gets the short end of the health care prescnption. Beyond an companson with Toronto. Durham is underfunded in relation to the rest of the province. It could he argued Durham Region is one of the worst places to get sick in Ontario. As Jim Armstrong, executive director of the Hospital Council of Durham Region says, ' We're already way iglu\& delivery levels elsewhere in the province. We expect when they (Hospital Restructuring Commission) conic to Durham, they're not going to be subtracting. they're going to be adding." Citizens in Durham can do their pan by reminding their local MPPs of the importance of health care in the region. They should be- assured. as should Premier Mike Hares and Health Minister Dave Johnson, that there is a political price to pay for ignoring the health care necxis of Durham voters. kTo respond to this editorial call Infosourre at n� f OSOurce 683-7040 and dial 5112 ♦You said it...

Sometimes I think that I am thoroughly spoiled. I am hugged, it seemed like a hundred times a day. Everybody in the family, and friends, talk to me (too much some- times, I think). Apart from my regular "cat" food, I will occasionally get served sirloin steak, prime rib roast, roast chick- en, roast turkey, tuna, and salmon. I am so happy. But my life wasn't always like this! Two -and -a -half years ago, I was thrown away in the bush by my owners. For several days I had nothing to eat I was starved, had severe dianfiea, and ,dia- per" rash I saw these two young people rooming along the road. I ran towards them. They stopped, picked me up and took me to the vier Then they brought me home to Ajax. I was only two weeks olds I recovered quickly. Today, I am a happy and healthy cat. But I always think of my friends, abandoned and alone, roaming the countryside with no food and no hugs. ,JOANNE BURGHARDT, Editor -in -Chief STEVE HOUSTON, Managing Editor BRUCE DANFORD, Advertising Manager ALVIN BROUWER, Retail Advertising Manager FRED EISMONT, Classified Advertising Manager MONIQUE LEA, Real Estate Advertising Manager ABE FAKHOURIE, Distribution Manager BARBARA HARRISON, Production Manager JANICE O'NEIL, Assistant Production Manager CHERYL HAINES, Assistant Production Manager LILLIAN HOOK, Administration Manager A lir\& lucky ones get to go to a slicl ter.

John D'Costa on behalf of Chaser, Ajax Welcome back To the editor: An open letter to Premier Mike Harris. Dear Mike, How nice to see you enjoy yourself on your recent "boosterism" trip to some of the most downtrodden, impoverished, and corrupt regimes in the southeastern part of the hemisphere! While you were away, however, your loyal underlings were reeking havoc on we Ontarians back home (as per your instructions I assn=)! While you were exchanging toasts with the "leaders„ of the oppressed mil- lions, probably the most brilliant econo- mist on our planet was in Toronto -roast- ing" your regime for your "War against the poor" (his quote). I realize Golf Digest may be to your liking for reading ability, but surely there must be someone in your flock that understands the words of John Kenneth Galbraith!

I've written a handful of stories on their plight -- not all of which have yet appeared in the paper — and I'vc just touched the tip of the iceberg. You may recall the ,tory of Dawn Roper, whose 14 -year-old daughter Carolyn has Rhett's Syndrome. Ms. Roper speaks proudly of her daugh- ter, who can't walk or talk but who can draw someone to her side through her sparkling eyes. While Ms. Roper enjoys boasting of her daughter's strengths, she must talk much longer and louder of Carolyn's weaknesses in her bid to get the financial support she needs to keep her family from falling off a narrow ledge. That financial support comes mainly through Special Services at Home funding from the Ministry of Community and Social Services. It allows families to hire in-home workers to help care for disabled children when help is most needed. Last year, Ms. Roper received $20,000 in funding. This year, she will get $10,000. While that may seem like a lot of money, it doesn't take long to gobble it up, families of disabled children assure. And it is certainly much, much less than it costs the government to care for just one person in an institu- tion — or in a prison. Why isn't there more help for families of disabled children? And why is Durham Region — home to Minister of Community and Social Services and Durham West MPP Janet Ecker — grossly underfunded compared to other regions in the province? Ms. Ecker, these families are looking for answers as they try to keep their heads above water. Please reach out your hand and help keep them from drowning.

Oshawa GM F local battles with national union on 1 overpayment to striking By BRIAN LEGREE DURHAM STAFF An internal dispute con- tinues between the Canadian Auto Workers national and Local 222 union officials over a S 1.25 - million "overpayment" of strike pay during the three- week walkout at General Motors last fall. The national union is demanding restitution, but a Local 222 official says "there's never been a com- mitment" regarding reim- bursement. CAW national staff rep- resentative Bert Rovers says 10,000 GM employees were paid $125 apiece which they were not enti- tled to at the end of last October's walkout. "In all fairness, I have to say it was a mistake — that's all," says Mr. Rovers. "No one had any personal gain, there was absolutely no fraud or anything. h was a simple administratiive mis- take." But Dave' Broadbent, Local 222's secretary -trea- surer, says locale officials were "following the direc- tions of the natigpal repre. sentative who was in charge of the strike fund• when the payment was made. Both sides agree the problem is rooted in return dates of employees follow- ing the resolution of the strike. Some workers were back on the job a day after the ratification vote, while oth- ers missed up to five work- ing days before returning. A payment was made to workers who remained off the job after the strike was resolved, Mr. Broadbent IS workers says. The national union is not blameless in the dispute, he says, noting the payment was made with its knowl- edge. Officials from both sides have held several meetings in an effort to resolve the situation. "We're trying to reach a compromise figure and even at that there's never been a commitment (regarding restitution)," says Mr. Broadbent. In his report to the CAW council last month, CAW president Buzz Hargrove said "these monies were paid by experienced nation- al and local representatives, who knew, or should have known, they were authoriz- ing an overpayment which would have to be repaid." The $1.25 million belongs to all CAW mem- bers, says Mr. Rovers. The money is legiti- mately owned by the total membership, totally across Canada.. It's their strike fund," he says, adding the situation was caused by "an error, but nevertheless, the error doesn't [Wean people were entitled to that Over- payment-" If Local 222 agrees to pay money back to the national union, the actual process of repaying any amount has yet to be deter- mined. "If there is an overpay- ment we don't now how it's going to come into play," says Mr. Broadbent. No new meetings are scheduled at this time, but both sides expressed opti- mism the issue will be resolved. The driver of the vehicle was not injured. William Scott McQuade, 25, has been charged with careless driving and failing to stop at a red light. He's scheduled to appear in provincial court in Whitby on March 19. a ,- KEN NOONAN Pedestrian killed.

Ajax's Bob Turcotte hopes to ice another national curling title BY Jim EASSON SPECIAL TO THE NEWS ADVERTISER AJAX — The curling Turcottes of Ajax were busy on the rinks last weekend. Bob Turcotte started his mission to defend his CIBC Canadian Senior Men's Championship which got under way at the Thornhill Country Club Jan. 25 and will continue until Feb. 2. Turcotte is the defending Canadian senior champion, steering his rink out of Brampton to the title. However, a conflict with the zone playdown schedule forced Turcotte to move his team to Kitchener where dates in a different zone worked for his schedule. "KFC's new Fries are always HOT and CRISPY ... Perfect!!" James Bountrogiannis, Ajax, ON In fact, Turcotte was actually close to retiring last year from the competitive scene after his national title win, but his teammates talked him into trying for a repeat. The Turcotte rink has captured the Ontario title and this week is curling to sec if it can repeat as Canadian champs. Meanwhile, his wife Kristin was elim- inated in her pursuit of another Canadian Women's Curling Championship after falling short at the Ontario playdowns in Peterborough last weekend. The winning team there advances to the Scott Tournament of Hearts Canadian finals in Vancouver Feb. 22 to March 2. Turcotte won the Canadian title in 1990 playing vice for Alison Goring's Bayview rink. However, this season with a team of her own, also out of Bayview, the run ended short of the finals. s*: Locally, Annandale's men's curling league teams are playing a lot of extra games in an attempt to meet the schedule laid out for the club's Skins Playdown. The skins games are played anytime available ice can be found, and it can he a challenge scheduling two teams to meet to play at odd times. With many of the other league teams requiring make-up games after several were missed due to bad weather, there is a lot of competition for available sheets of ice. Forty men's rinks started the Skins competition last October and a team is eliminated after two losses or by failing to meet a schedule deadline. The early games did not have any prize monies attached to them, but virtually all of the surviving 17 rinks will now receive prize money for each win. 'A' side teams play for $40 each game, while the 'B' side rinks have $20 on the line. When the field is finally cut down to the final two rinks in April, the final match will be played for an $800 purse. 30%AWPRIFRIIS FREE! With Every" Aeal Purdose. //////� KFC*.
