`My first reaction, in five
or six words, was stuff it.'
Bring on
the feds:
truckers
President wonders
if new minister
is the answer
BY JANE McDONALD
Staff Writer
It's more of the same from the
provincial government and the in-
dependent truckers who refuse to
go away.
Cash-strapped National Truck-
ing Association (NTA) members
waited throughout Thursday before
heading to Toronto where the plan
late yesterday afternoon was to tar-
get refineries.
"There is no meeting," said
NTA president Bill Wellman at
noon on Thursday. "Right now,
what's happening is the people with
the big money are trying to wear us
down and to break us. That only
makes me stronger. They might
break me for one day but I'll come
back stronger for two days."
Mr. Wellman and NTA vice-
president Keith Swayne were at a
meeting at the provincial legisla-
ture on Wednesday, but did not
meet yesterday with Economic De-
velopment Minister Al Palladini.
Both NTA leaders had offered
their resignations to their member-
ship earlier in the week but are

Municipal report card idea the `height of arrogance'
Durham says `stuff it'
BY KEITH GILLIGAN
Staff Writer
The Province's plan to have
municipalities issue report cards to,
taxpayers is "the height of arro-
gance" and "insulting", say re-
gional councillors.
Durham council voted over-
whelmingly at Wednesday's coun-
cil meeting to decline participating
in the provincial government's
`Municipal Performance Measure-
ment Program', which will force
all municipalities to issue the re-
port cards each year on how they
are delivering local services such
as water, fire and roads.
Ajax Mayor Steve Parish was
blunt in his assessment of the plan.
"My first reaction, in five or six
words, was 'stuff it'," he said.
A Regional staff report called
for the program to be deferred
until more information becomes
available.
Mayor Parish said the matter
should be deferred, noting, "When
it comes back, I ain't doing no re-
port card." He added the report
cards are "the height of arrogance"
and "insulting and arrogant".
When the first report cards
come out, Mayor Parish predicted,
"We'll all get bad grades, Ds and a
few Cs. In three years when the
(provincial) governmentis seeking
re-election, the grades will all go
way up."
Mayor Parish suggested the
motion read, "We respectfully de-
cline to participate in their report
card program."

Pickering Canadian Tire recognizes the
need for kids to have a nutritious breakfast
before they start their school day. Before
some staff at Canadian Tire go to work, they
volunteer at Glengrove Public School to
serve 40 children breakfast each day.
"The Canadian Tire Foundation for
Families collects funds to be used in the
community and we strongly support
Breakfast Clubs" said Jeff Gray, Manager of
the Canadian Tire Pickering store. The
Family Tree program is a national
fundraising initiative of the Canadian Tire
Foundation for Families. During the holiday
season, $5.00 for the sale of every 4'/z foot or larger artificial tree will be
donated to the Foundation in support of local charities. An additional $5.00
will be donated for purchases on the Canadian Tire Card or Options
MasterCard. Last year the program raised more than $700,000 for families
in need across Canada.
Mr. Gray explains, "We saw a need to support Glengrove Public School's
Breakfast Club because so many children don't eat or get a proper
breakfast for a variety of reasons. It is pretty hectic in the morning at most
households. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and gives kids
a good start to their day. The Breakfast Club is something Canadian Tire
can support in ways other than financial. With other schools in Pickering
starting up programs, we look forward to trying to help them as well." The
Canadian Tire staff has provided support with volunteers, financial
contributions and donations of products to school nutrition programs in
Pickering.
"Partnerships between businesses and school nutrition programs ensures
children have access to healthy food and teaches them to make healthy
eating choices," said Carla Rhody, Coordinator of Durham's Child Nutrition
Project. If you would like to volunteer at a Breakfast Club or make a
financial contribution contact Carla Rhody at (905) 686-2661.

Government sources were quoted in
some media reports as saying meetings
would continue in an effort to reach a
deal surrounding fuel hikes as long as
NTA members and their supporters did
not demonstrate. In a press release yes-
terday afternoon, Mr. Wellman stated he
was "led to believe that negotiations
would commence today (Oct. 19) but
again, after a long nine months, Mr. Pal-
ladini has stalled the talks ..."
Mr. Swayne says when he called Mr.
Palladini's office Thursday he was told
they "wouldn't have time to call a meet-
ing today (Oct. 19)." All NTA trucks had
ceased all protests since midnight,
Wednesday, Oct. 18, the night before.
"So here we sit with no meeting," added
the vice-president.

"And the drivers are getting
frustrated," Mr. Wellman said
candidly. "If they (the members)
go back out protesting, talks will
be called off so we've lost anoth-
er day."
Such frustration has moved
Mr. Wellman to wonder if the
NTA is dealing with the appro-
priate level of government.
"I want to call (new federal
Industry Minister) Brian Tobin
as soon as possible," said Mr.
Wellman from the Whitby truck
stop that has become the unoffi-
cial headquarters for the NTA.
"If Mr. Palladini says it is a
federal and provincial issue,
well, I think Mr. Tobin is an un-
derstanding man and maybe he
can close these issues."
Independent truckers now re-
ceive about $1 a mile for hauling
produce and manufactured
goods. They say they need at
least an additional 24 cents per
mile to cope with diesel fuel
costs that have gone up by 30
cents a litre in the last year.
"Twenty-four cents is a nice
number to have with an accelera-
tor as fuel keeps going up," said
Mr. Wellman.
Calls to Mr. Palladini's office
yesterday were not returned.
A slow-moving convoy of
about 100 trucks brought com-
muter traffic to a crawl Wednes-
day when the truckers left the
Whitby truck stop and headed
for the Chrysler plant in Bramp-
ton along Hwy. 401.
Although peaceful, rush-hour
traffic was affected for about four
hours.

Do monetary treats beat
gross mismanagement?
Don't let week of political moves cloud
decision-making for upcoming election
So, who won?
Did the Liberals get the upper
hand Wednesday with Paul Martin's
mini -budget and his huge new tax
cuts, which will see billions more
come our way in the next few years?
Or did the Canadian Alliance ben-
efit from Tuesday's scathing auditor -
general's report that accused the feds
of mismanaging billions of dollars of
our money over the last five years?
That is the mega -billion -dollar
question that will surely be answered
once and for all Nov. 27.
Put it this way: Stockwell Day and
the Alliance will have an uphill battle
on their hands convincing Canadians
things could only be better with a new
party at the helm.
After all, the past seven years have
seen the government turn the tables
on its finances by taking the federal
budget from a $40 -billion deficit to a
surplus that hit $12 billion this year
and could crest $100 billion in the
next five years. -
To top it off, the finance minister
has promised nearly $90 billion in tax
relief over the next five years.
Mr. Day is arguing the government
should give taxpayers more than it is
promising. The freshly minted chief
was able to draw Toronto business
leaders to a fund-raising dinner this
week that reportedly put $1.7 million
in Alliance coffers, but polls show his
party is well behind the Liberals in
public popularity.
If this budget plays well in Quebec
and Ontario, and early indications
show people in central Canada like
what they see, it's hard to picture the
Alliance making the breakthrough it
needs to topple the Liberals.
The 'X' factor is Atlantic Canada.
Will the cynical move to bring Brian
Tobin, who does not hold a federal
seat, back to cabinet from his spot as
premier of Newfoundland pay divi-
dends over the next five weeks? Will
the Liberals, who won 31 of 32 seats
in Atlantic Canada in 1993 and then
stumbled to less than half that in
1997, regain their strength?
How will the mini -budget play in
Western Canada? Will the Liberals be
able to win a few seats in Vancouver
and Winnipeg to offset the Alliance
tide?
This busy political week has set
the stage for Nov. 27. You'll be hear-
ing an awful lot about tax cuts, tax
rates, surpluses and social spending
in the next 38 days.
Remember where the parties stood
before the election call and you'll be
better able to decide when you go to
the voting booth.

Stop poverty
in its infancy
To the editor:
Re: `Products don't brand kids,' let-
ter to the editor, Sept. 27.
In a society where many fami-
lies have so much, it is very difficult
to comprehend that others live with
so little. The alarming fact is that
the rate and depth of poverty have
been increasing at the same time
that the economy appears to be
booming. Those living in poverty
can not afford food, clothes, shoes
or winter boots.
In a society where some families
have the ability to afford brand-
name clothes, runners and comput-
ers, it seems unconscionable that
other families have difficulty in just
When did I become my mother?
Rolled eyes straightened out with sensible parental wisdom
When I was in my 20s, stiletto
heels were all the rage and being
seen in the latest fashion was a
must. One day as I sashayed past my
mother in five -inch heels she com-
mented, "There will come a time
when you'll choose comfort over
style."
I made a face. It's 30 years later
and my mother was right. I've trad-
ed my high heels for Birkenstocks. I
still wear my heels when flat shoes
just won't do but my heart belongs
to my Birks.
It's pretty scary to realize you are
becoming your parents. It's a grad-
ual thing. It just creeps up on you
and before you know it you're like
the parents you used to roll your
eyes at.
Lately when I flip- through a
magazine, instead of turning to the
latest fall fashions I'm drawn to ar-
ticles entitled, `Is hormone replace-
ment therapy for you?'
I know more about my colon than
I care to admit and I've noticed my

kids' eyes glaze over when I discuss
the benefits of bran. Decaf is my
coffee of choice these days and
high -fibre cereals have replaced the
high-fat bacon and eggs breakfasts
of the past.
I'm also far more interested in
where the bathrooms are located
when I go out than I ever- was be-
fore, and like my parents, I know
which stores have blood -pressure
stations in them. I also have my cho-
lesterol counts memorized, yet I
can't seem to remember where I put
my glasses.
Instead of burning the candle at
both ends as I once did, these days
I'm nodding off by 10. And just like
my mother, most Sundays you'll
find me curled up on the couch with
the newspaper, enjoying a lazy day
of crossword puzzles and old
movies.
I used to watch my parents put-
tering around the garden and think,
"How boring is that?" Now I'm
planting fall bulbs in anticipation of
another spring and reading garden-
ing books to get me through the
winter.
As with all generations, it has
taken me a while to realize how
smart my parents really were. If it's
true that what goes around comes
around, perhaps one day I'll be
lucky enough that my children will
afford me the same compliment.
Until then, I'm content with my
mellowing lifestyle and wondering
if my kids have noticed how uncom-
fortable their shoes are becoming. .

putting a meal on the table. For the
one in seven Durham families liv-
ing in poverty, providing back -to -
school supplies becomes impossi-
ble when there is not enough money
to pay the rent or put food on the
table.
In September, children from
poor families returned to school
lacking the indoor and outdoor run-
ning shoes that are requested by
schools, as well as the calculators,
math sets, coloured pencils, binders
and school bags that are routinely
purchased by the majority of fami-
lies with school -aged children.
Thanks to the generosity of the
merchants and customers of the
Pickering Town Centre, many of
these children received school bags
and supplies. Thanks also goes to
the Red Cross and volunteers from
Intercede who sorted and delivered
the supplies to agencies, schools
and other organizations which then
discreetly, distributed the school
bags. The generosity and volunteer
time of many caring members of
this community helped a number of
children set off for school better
prepared to learn and happier than
they might otherwise have been.
Being poor is not character
building. The fact is research shows
poor children perform less well at
school. They have higher rates of
emotional and behavioural prob-
lems and chronic health problems.
The long-term prognosis is also dis-
couraging. Those growing up in
poor families are more likely to
drop out of school, have ongoing
health problems and die at younger
ages.
We need to reverse the growth of
poverty and begin programs to mit-
igate the disastrous effects experi-
enced by those growing up poor.
Our hope is that the 'Back To
School Pack Program' in some
small measure will help. We also
hope this program will spread
across the region and be even more
successful next year.

Mini -budget aims for maximum effect
Federal tax cuts the order of the day in Martin's speech
BY CHRISTY CHASE
Staff Writer
All that's needed now is the
election call.
That's expected this weekend,
just days after Finance Minister
Paul Martin delivered a minibud-
get packed with good news on
Wednesday.
There are tax cuts for everyone,
one-time payments for relief of
high heating costs this winter for 11
million Canadians, improved child
tax benefits and more money to pay
down the debt.
The mini -budget, or economic
statement at Mr. Martin labelled it,
calls for $100 billion in tax cuts
over five years, a $42 -billion im-
provement from the 2000 budget
last February.
"Our tax plan is designed with
the following objectives in mind:
First, providing tax relief to all
Canadians but to moderate- and
middle-income families in particu-
lar. Second, helping those who need
it most through a number of gener-
al and targeted measures. Third,
promoting job creation and eco-
nomic growth to give Canada and
Canadians an advantage in the new
economy." Mr. Martin said.
Budget highlights
✓ $100 billion in tax cuts over five
years, a 42 -billion improvement
over the February 2000 budget;
✓ Average personal income
taxes will drop by 21 per cent
over five years;
✓ New federal tax rates effective
Jan. 1, 2001 for Canadians earn-
ing up to $100,000 per year, with
an average reduction of two per
cent;
✓ A corporate tax -rate reduction
of two points per year over the
next three years, which will see
the rate fall from 27 to 21 per
cent;
✓ A payment this year of at least
$10 billion towards the country's
$554.5 billion debt, and a vow to
spend at least $3 billion per year
on debt reduction and more
when economic times are good.
"Our plan will achieve these ob-
jectives by legislating - not promis-
ing - the largest tax cut in Canadian
history. And by bringing our mea-
sures into effect by Jan. 1, 2001,
less than two -and -a -half months
from now."
Mr. Martin announced the feder-
al government is in a position to
pay $10 billion down on the $554 -
billion debt this year and will estab-
lish $14 billion in new spending
over three years on social pro-
grams, university research, educa-
tionand the environment.
"For this year, 2000-01, we will
pay down a minimum of $10 billion
of debt. This means that over the
last four years, we will have re-
duced the national debt by over
$28.7 billion, resulting in interest
savings of $1.7 billion, for each and
every year going forward - money
that will now be available to meet
the priorities of Canadians," he
said.
The mini -budget will see aver-
age personal taxes drop by 21 per
cent over five years while the aver-
age decrease for families with chil-
dren will be 27 per cent.
The new cuts, combined with
those announced in February's bud-
get, will mean a two -income family
of four with a combined income of
$60,000 will save $1,021 in income
taxes next year.
A single person making $75,000
will pay $2,223 less in taxes in
2001 while a single person with one
child and an income of $50,000
Hot economy, not election,
stimulated tax cuts: MP
Local Liberals respond to criticism
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
Canadians will have more
money in their pockets under
federal Finance Minister Paul
Martin's mini -budget, delivered
in the House of Commons
Wednesday.
But critics say the unprece-
dented billions of dollars in tax
cuts, which will see the average
Canadian save about $1,000 on
their tax bill next year, is a
shameless attempt to buy the
Liberals votes with an election
just around the corner.
They also contend its an at-
tempt to steal a major compo-
nent of the Canadian Alliance's
platform, which calls for sweep-
ing tax cuts.
An election call is widely ex-
pected on Sunday, with the vote
to take place on Nov. 27.
Pickering -Ajax -Uxbridge
MP Dan McTeague was in cam-
paign form Thursday, slamming
the critics, noting "most nation-
al observers are absolutely laud-
ing and applauding this budget.
"I think the criticism is prob-
ably by a very narrow group of
individuals who have a political
message to deliver."
The Canadian Alliance's cool
reaction to the economic state-
ment demonstrates they are "ab-
solutely jealous" of the tax cuts
the government has announced.
He added the cuts are not an at-
tempt to buy votes, but because
the economy is so strong and
•.f � r t..., iR. a
DAN McTEAGUE
'Most national observers
are absolutely lauding and
applauding this budget.'
"the government has to put
something on the table.
Though he acknowledges
"we are on the eve of the elec-
tion," the mini -budget reflects
the fact the country's economy
is "on the mend" as a result of
factors such as the debt being
paid down and a more
favourable trade balance.
Judi Longfield, Whitby -Ajax
MP, suggests the federal gov-
ernment didn't just wake up and
decide to give Canadians tax
cuts: the government said it
would do so after giving a high
priority to deficit reduction.
"This is really just building
on promises we made in 1997,"
she says, noting tax breaks were
in the plan.
As the government's surplus
has risen, "our opportunity to do
this has grown," says Ms. Long-
field, who acknowledges the
"pretty major sacrifices" Cana-
dians have made to get the debt
under control.
She describes the economic
statement as "balanced."
"We haven't spent all of the
surplus," says Ms. Longfield.
"I'm delighted we have put so
much into reducing the debt"
Mr. McTeague described the an-
nounced one-time home fuel
price rebate of $125 for individ-
uals or $250 for families who
receive a GST tax credit, as "a
validation for a lot of the work
I've done over the past five
years."
The relief is intended to help
lower-income families with
higher energy costs.
Mr. McTeague says the re-
bate will benefit 11 million, or
one in three Canadians, and
notes Mr. Martin referred to his
"invaluable assistance" in form-
ing the government policy."
"I can assure you that the
views that you expressed in the
House last month have been at
the forefront of the govern-
ment's thinking on how to ad-
dress the difficult issue of rising
energy costs," Mr. Martin stated
in a letter.

will see taxes drop by $1,150.
Tax brackets will also be amend-
ed. The lowest tax category, for tax-
able income up to $30,754, will
have the tax rate go from 17 to 16
per cent. The tax rate in the second
category, income between $30,754
and $61,609, will drop from 24 per
cent to 22 per cent and the next
bracket, income between $61,609
and $100,000, would see a decrease
from 29 to 26 per cent. The top cat-
egory, covering taxable incomes
over $100,000, would remain at 29
per cent.
A five -per -cent income surtax
on incomes over $61,509 will be
dropped in 2001. It was to have
been slowly phased out over a
longer time period.
Mr. Martin flatly rejected any
consideration of a flat tax, stating
it's unfair to middle- and lower-in-
come Canadians. A flat tax is part
of the Canadian Alliance's plat-
form.
This winter, Canadians with in-
comes of up to $31,000 and who
qualify for a GST rebate will be el-
igible for a one-time payment of
$125 for single and $250 for family
to help alleviate the impact of high
heating costs this winter. Mr. Mar-
tin said this would be looked at on
an annual basis.
As of July 1, 2001, the Canada
Child Tax Benefit for low- and mid-
dle-income Canadians will be in-
creased. Disability tax credit
amount will be improved in Janu-
ary, tax credits for caregivers of de-
pendent relatives will be raised as
will the tax credit for post -sec-
ondary students.
Mr. Martin noted Canada's eco-
nomic performance recently "has
been striking" with the last three
months marking the 20th consecu-
tive quarter of growth, "the longest
sustained period of gain since the
mid-1960s. Our current account is
in the largest surplus position in its
history. Our foreign indebtedness,
as a percentage of our economy, is
at its lowest level in more than 20
years"
Job creation continues while thg
unemployment rate is approaching
the lowest level in 24 years, he said.
That has left Canada with the best
job creation rate in the G-7 for the
third year in a row.

CARE puts focus, efforts into jobs
BY AL RIVETT
Staff Editor
PICKERING — Helping
area adults find jobs.
That's been the number -
one job of the Pickering -
based Career Assistance and
Resources for Employment
(CARE) agency since open-
ing its doors in 1995. And,
during those five years, area
job -seekers have found em-
ployment in large numbers.
In fact, a high percentage
of unemployed men and
women who look to CARE
for help have been finding
work, notes Donna White-
man, program manager/ca-
reer and employment coun-
sellor at CARE.
"We have a 75 and 80 -per
cent success rate. Obviously,
this has more to do with the
clients, but we're very proud
of that," says Ms. Whiteman,
adding that CARE sees be-
tween 300 to 400 clients each
month at its 1400 Bayly St.
location.
The agency, which oper-
ates under the Durham Re-
gion Unemployed Help Cen-
tre umbrella, helps a wide
range of people with their
job -search skills, notes Ms.
Whiteman. CARE's clients
could include the stay-at-
home mom who wants to re-
turn to the work force, new
Canadians attempting to find
suitable employment, or
those with a lengthy record of
work experience who are
now facing unemployment,
and need help exploring their
employment options.
CARE is one of numerous
Ajax and Pickering agencies
helped financially by the
United Way of Ajax -Picker-
ing each year. This year, the
United Way has set its fund-
raising goal at $1.35 million.
Ms. Whiteman explains
CARE used its United Way
funds ip its general operating
budget which covers many of
the services and programs of-
fered at the agency.
"We're very big support-
ers of the United Way and
they've been big supporters
of us," she says.
Since the effort needed to
find a job is almost a full-time
job in itself, learning the
skills involved in finding the
right job are crucial in today's
marketplace.
"Definitely, the greater ef-
fort you put into it, obviously
the better the results are
going to be," she explains.
"There are a lot of different
things people can do other
than hitting the job banks,
which helps, but doesn't
work for everybody"
CARE provides help to
job seekers over the age of 24
with its frequent job -search
workshops, individual career
counselling and its three-day
job club events, Ms. White-
man notes.
Workshops are held each
Thursday for a half day at its
Pickering offices. Topics such
as resume and cover letter
preparation, interviewing
skills and tips to search the
hidden job market are cov-
ered by CARE. Interestingly,
more than 80 per cent of jobs
aren't advertised, which

means job seekers must learn
techniques such as network-
ing, cold calling, searching
business directories and temp
agencies to open those doors
to employment.
Individual career coun-
selling at CARE is funded by
the Ministry of Training, Col-
leges and Universities. This
service, notes Ms. Whiteman,
helps clients establish their
career goals and points them
in the right direction.
Meanwhile, the three-day
job club is sponsored by the
federal government's Human
Resources Development
Canada ministry. Described
as an "intensive job -search
program", the three-day, full-
day workshop covers all
facets of finding a job, in-
cluding cover letters and re-
sume preparation, interview-
ing, self-esteem and a half
day of Internet training.
The job club is held each
Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday at CARE.

any of CARE's programs,

From Concession 5 to 1 kilometer north of Brougham
. In the City of Pickering
The Regional Municipality of Durham will be holding a Public Open House to discuss possible
improvements to Brock Road from Bayly Street to north of Brougham, including conceptual plans for
a new alignment for a bypass of the community of Brougham.
Improvements to Brock Road are needed to address anticipated traffic volumes when Highway 407 ETR
is extended east to Brock Road. Improvements would also support planned development in north
Pickering. The Brougham Bypass section of Brock Road has been shown in the Official Plans of both
Durham and Pickering. Based on work completed to date, it is proposed to construct the bypass about
500 m east of existing Brock Road. A partial interchange with 407 ETR would be included, with signals
at,the ramp intersections. The timing of construction has not been determined.
Planning and design work is being conducted in accordance with the Schedule "C" of the Class
Environmental Assessment for Municipal Roads.
You are invited to the Public Open House to see the proposed concepts and provide the study team with
your comments and concerns. The Public Open House will be held:

`fine' after reaction to flu shot
Medical officer of health calls situation `rare', affirms need for preventive measure
Calling Clarington Councillor
Mary Novak's negative reaction
to a flu shot and subsequent trip
to hospital from Durham council
chambers Wednesday a rare oc-
currence, the Region's medical
officer of health is urging people
to be vaccinated.
Dr. Robert Kyle said flu shots
are "very safe" and added it's
"extremely rare" for someone to
have a reaction.
Health department staff were
at Durham council's meeting
Wednesday to administer flu
shots to councillors.
About an hour after the meet-
ing started, Coun. Novak was no-
ticed sitting in a chair against a
wall and appeared dazed.
Dr. Kyle called for an ambu-
lance and at about 12:30 p.m. she
was taken to hospital.
Shortly after her departure,
Durham Regional Chairman
Roger Anderson told councillors
MARY NOVAK
'It's not a big deaf
I feel fine.'
Coun. Novak "had a slight reac-
tion to a flu shot".
"I'm home and OK now,"
Coun. Novak said when reached
by phone Wednesday afternoon.
"It's not a big deal. I feel fine."
She said the hospital gave her
an antihistamine and that she
needed some rest.
In an interview, Dr. Kyle said
if someone has a reaction, it's
usually "local, with soreness or
redness.
"Extremely rarely, an individ-
ual will develop an allergic reac-
tion. It's usually minor, like a
rash or tingling around the
mouth."

Residential construction
levels up in Durham: CMHC
New home construction
continues to climb in Durham
Region.
According to data released
by Canada Mortgage and
Housing Corporation
(CMHC), third quarter starts
were 44.5 per cent higher than
in 1999, while year-to-date
figures have exceeded 1999
levels by 29.1 per cent.
In September, Whitby led
the way with 110 singles and
60 multiples. Ajax was next
starting 102 singles.
Oshawa came in with 29
singles and 16 multiples, while
in Clarington 36 single -de-
tached units commenced con-
struction.
Both Whitby and Oshawa
recorded gains over construc-
tion levels last year.
"Despite weaker local em-
ployment figures recorded
throughout most of 2000,
Durham's residential construc-
tion levels continue to be bol-
stered by strong employment
growth in Toronto, stable
mortgage rates and the healthy
local resale market," said Bev-
erly Kueper, market analyst of
CMHC's Oshawa -based of-
fice. "These solid economic
fundamentals are expected to
drive housing starts well above
last year's record-setting
pace."

Grade 10 literacy tests goes `smooth as silk'
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
Roughly 4,600 Grade 10 students
across Durham spent four hours this
week showcasing their reading and
writing abilities.
A product of the Education Qual-
ity and Accountability Office
(EQAO), the independent agency es-
tablished by the Province to improve
education quality, the Test of Read-
ing and Writing Skills was written in
two sessions on Wednesday and
Thursday. Beginning next year, stu-
dents will have to pass the test in
order to graduate from high school.
After a field test in a small num-
ber of schools seven months ago —
designed to ensure the test was ad-
ministered properly at the school
level — the Grade 10 test received a
full trial run in Ontario high schools
this week.
"The test went extremely well,"
said Marilyn LeBrun, principal at
Monsignor Paul Dwyer Catholic
High School in Oshawa. "Smooth as
silk was the expression I heard. The
kids were wonderful; they took it
very seriously."
She said students were given two
hours each day to complete the test,
conducted in the school gym, broken
up by a 15 -minute break.
Ms. LeBrun said while students
were "nervous" at the start of the
test, they became more comfortable
as it proceeded:
They were helped prior to the test
with support material from the edu-
cation ministry, while teachers were
allowed an opportunity to assist stu-
dents with practice questions and ex-
plain to them the test format.
"It went really well in terms of the
administration of the test," said Port
Perry High School principal Mark
Jefferies.
"The feedback from students I've
been able to talk to is they found the
test reasonable."
Roughly 270 students at Port
Perry H.S. wrote the test, conducted
in classrooms instead of the school
gym so as not to take desks out of
classes, he said.
Mr. Jefferies said the test did in-
volve "some logistical headaches in
terms of organizing classes," and he
relayed a concern over the cost of
running the test. The school received -
just one copy of support material
from the education ministry, which
meant it had to be photocopied. And
temporary, extra staff in the form of
a secretary and educational assistants
was required.
"I didn't get any increase in my
school budget (to run the test)," he
noted.
Staff had to prepare students for
the test and keep them focused
though they were aware a pass was
not required for graduation this year,
said Mr. Jefferies. About 10 students
did not write the test, most because
they were ill. The parents of one stu-
dent chose not to have the pupil take
part.
"The process seems to have gone
very well," said Pauline Laing, co -
moderator of the test for the EQAO.
"We haven't had any major glitches
that I'm aware of."
She said when the test is adminis-
tered next year, the format will re-
main the same, seeing pupils reading
passages and answering questions
based on the material, and, in a an-
other section, demonstrating their
abilities to compose a written
piece. However the content will
be almost completely changed.
Ms. Laing said the test results
at each school will be known in
late January of early February.
The field test indicated a "full
range of results" which, she
said, gives the EQAO "a sense
it's appropriate for kids".
Some feedback suggested
students found the test easy.
"I think it's quite understand-
able, especially if the comments
are from kids," said Ms. Laing,
who again referred to the field
test to suggest students aren't
accurate at predicting how well
they fared.
"No one at . this point other
than the test developers has a
sense of the whole test that they
could come to a judgment on,"
she said.

Made -in -Durham solution best: Minister
Clement says local people have the local answers
BY JENNIFER STONE
Staff Writer
Durham's residents and municipal
politicians hold the answers to any re-
structuring which may take place here,
says Ontario's Minister of Municipal
Affairs and Housing.
"My point of view is that we great-
ly prefer a local -based solution" for
municipal amalgamation plans, noted
Tony Clement, keynote speaker at a
fund-raiser for Durham MPP John O'-
Toole in Newcastle Tuesday. "Ninety-
five per cent of the time, we've been
able in our restructurings (elsewhere in
the province) to have a municipally -de-
vised solution. Most (restructurings)
are done through bottom-up deci-
sions."
Though he wouldn't indicate a
time -frame for possible restructuring
in Durham, Mr. Clement did point to a
report commissioned by the Greater
Toronto Services Board, due to be
tabled in March, which will look at
possible streamlining of service deliv-
ery in the Greater Toronto Area. As
well, he says new local and regional
councils, after the Nov. 13 municipal
election, will have to spend some time
talking to constituents about the best
plans for delivery of services and pos-
sible re -alignment of municipal bound-
aries. Referendum questions on amal-
gamation being asked on the municipal
ballots in Ajax and Whitby may also
give insight into local solutions, Mr.
Clement said. But he added the
talks and information gathering aren't
going to have a specific deadline.
"We're not putting any time frame
on it at all. We'll all know when the
discussion is either fruitful or fruit-
less," he noted, adding, "We're not near
the point where local discussion has
been exhausted."
Only after lengthy discussion, Mr.
Clement said, could the Province and
municipalities start discussing specific
plans for restructuring.
"Let's get all these ideas on the
table, and maybe we'll find out we
agree on 90 per cent and we only have
to work on 10 per cent," he remarked.
Mr. Clement said he believes resi-
dents and politicians can make a time-
ly decision on restructuring.
"It's wonderful how the mind can
be concentrated when decisions have
to be made," he noted, adding, "I
would have to say that really the expe-
rience in a lot of different places in On-
tario is that the citizenry have the in-
testinal fortitude to make the tough de-
cisions"
The Province has "no preconcep-
tion" of what a restructured Durham
could look like, said Mr. Clement.
But, he said, the government does have
a measuring stick by which it deter-
mines a viable municipal restructuring.
"Can it deliver better services to
taxpayers at a lower cost with fewer,
more accountable politicians," he said
of a successful re -alignment.

Longtime Whitby resident chosen to fight for Whitby -Ajax federal seat
Shaun Gillespie, a 35 -
year -old Toronto police of-
ficer, has been chosen the

The night's keynote speak-

to be sure, I rechecked it with
a retailer printout before I told
the others at work that we had
won," group spokesman

what Southpaw Wellness
These days, health care is on
everyone's mind: rising costs;
concerns about drug reactions, side
effects and interactions; worries
about proper nutrition; rising
stress levels and how that affects
the body.
Stress is believed to contribute
to deadly diseases such as cancer,
heart attack and stroke. It lowers
the quality of life for countless
individuals and families.
Logically, prevention is the
way to go to lower the costs of
health care at all levels. Get healthy
and stay healthy. But how exactly
can we do this?
What if ?
• There was a wellness com-
pany that offered cutting edge
technologies like magnetics,
far -infrared, nutritionals, and
more, all designed to reduce
stress, enhance energy levels
and improve the quality of
your sleep?
• This company came from
Japan, where some 90% of
their health care spending
goes to prevention?
• This company had a 20 year
history of success behind it,
with over 30 million custom-
ers in more than 20
countries?

Students `love' election process
Pickering students go to the polls Nov 4 on amalgamation issue
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
Mark Bevilacqua learned some-
thing new about his Grade 5 students
recently — they're keen on the elec-
tion process.
The teacher at Pickering's St. Eliz-
abeth Seton Catholic School dis-
cussed the election process with his
pupils and held a mock election in the
classroom for prime minister.
"They loved it," said Mr. Bevilac-
qua. "I couldn't believe how happy
they were to get involved."
That enthusiasm should bode well
for the coming weeks, as Pickering
students are going to the polls next
month to take part in the municipal
election.
The Learning Partnership, a feder-
al organization set up to enhance
school kids' knowledge of govern-
ment in Canada, is managing the 'Our
Kids Can Vote Canada' program here
in conjunction with the Ontario
Teachers' Federation, Durham's
school boards and the City of Picker-
ing.
Pickering clerk Bruce Taylor ex-
plains the students in Grades 4 to 8
and 10 won't be casting a vote for
mayor or other positions, but will an-
swer a question on their own ballot at
a Nov. 4 advance poll. And, after a
meeting last week with local teachers,
the question is all but determined.
"It looks as though the question we
will have on the Kids Can Vote ballot
will be, 'Are you in favour of the City
Kathleen
Rowe in the
money for
lookin' good
Students and staff at Kathleen
Rowe Memorial Public School in
Whitby were named the winners of the
Durham District School Board's 12th
'Hey We're Lookin' Good This Sum-
mer' contest on Monday night.
The contest encourages schools to
be good neighbours in their communi-
ty by keeping property free of weeds
and litter, planting gardens and main-
taining them. Some 70 public schools
entered this year and were visited by
board communications manager Mary
Brown, who chose four semifinalists,
a runner-up and the overall winner.
Kathlene Rowe received a framed
photo of its gardening project, a $300
contribution to use on gardening pro-
jects, and two plaques, one to keep and
one to display for a year.
The first runner-up was Mary
Street Community School in Oshawa,
which received $200, a framed photo
and a plaque to keep and display.
Semifinalist schools were Roland
Michener Public School and Valley
View Public School in Ajax, Ormiston
Public School in Whitby and Prince
Albert Public School in the Port Perry
area, all of which received framed
photos. All participants received $25
towards projects.

City of Pickering gets kids
involved in electoral process.
of Pickering amalgamating with
Ajax to form one municipality?',"
said Mr. Taylor.
He says the question, chosen
by teachers, has to be one of local
SAVE DURINI
interest on an issue that won't be
decided or out of the spotlight for
at least a year or so. Students will
brush up on the issue before vot-
ing by discussing it in class and
with their parents, visiting the li-
brary and generally becoming in-
formed any way they can.
Questions considered but re-
jected included a query on the
proposal to send Durham's
garbage to an open -pit. mine near
Kirkland Lake. Also rejected, but
considered earlier, was having
students cast a mayoral vote in
Pickering. Mr. Taylor says The
Learning Partnership "strongly
advised" against municipalities
having students vote for the top
spot.
After experiences in some U.S.
elections, it was found "it put the
kids at odds with their parents and
in some cases caused serious
problems," he said. As well, in
some close races south of the bor-
der, the winning candidates were
not supported by the student vote,
causing embarrassment for the
winners who, it was said, did not
have the kids' vote.
Before the election studies,
Mr. Bevilacqua says he had
doubts a lot of students would
turn out to take part in the amal-
gamation vote. But, after seeing
the students' enthusiasm, he be-
lieves many students will cast a
'Yes' or 'No' vote on Nov. 4.
However, he noted the pupils
won't be happy they're not voting
for the mayoral seat, as they were
looking forward to casting a vote
for the city's top politician.
Mr. Taylor says any Pickering
student who comes in to vote will
be allowed to do so, even though
the process is intended for pupils
in Grades 4 to 8 and 10 as they're
studying the issue in class.
Students can vote at The Civic
Complex, lower lobby, 1 The Es-
planade, on Nov. 4 between 10
a.m. and 8 p.m. The votes will be
tallied and displayed on an elec-
tion night board with other mu-
nicipal results.

My next door neighbour Surin asked me about our 99 cent hamburger
last week. He said I know that you say NO STRINGS but what's the catch
Charles! I said there is none. Another customer said that you mean that I
don't have to buy anything with it. I said No. I can buy 6 hamburgers with
all the toppings, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, ketchup, mustard, relish ...
everything and it is only 99 cenis each? I said YES!
My question is why pay more when you can get such a great deal at the
front counter or through the drive thru? Every day. Day in and day out.,
I challenge you to find a better price for a one third pound double burger
at 1.49 or a double burger combo meal at 3.99. One third of a pound! You
can have whole wheat or sesame seed buns and you can have it your way.
We don't condiment our burgers in advance. Yes it takes more time but you
know what you're getting and it's flame broiled not fried.
FINALLY. This is the big one. You get a world famous DQ sundae regular
1.99 for only 99 cents with every combo value meal. You can have it that day
or any day.
If you buy combo meals on a regular basis when you go out, why would
you not have to have a 1.99 DQ sundae for only 99 cents that you can have
anytime, any day, any year. It's a great value and a great price.

BY RACHEL STEPHENSON
Special to the News Advertiser
Every year young peo-
ple in Ontario are honoured
for their kindness or gen-
erosity by receiving the
Ontario Junior Citizen of
the Year Award.
It's time once again to
pay tribute to those special
young people in your com-
munity who have gone
above and beyond the cause
in making a positive differ-
ence.
In recent years recipi-
ents of the awards have res-
cued a man from drowning,
organized cancer support
groups, or given their help
unquestionably in life-
threatening situations. Last
year four teenagers from
Whitby working with local
police, won the Group
Award for a video about the
misfortunes of drunk dri-
ving.
That video is now being
used in schools across On-
tario.
This year celebrates the
20th Anniversary of the Ju-
nior Citizen award and over
the years community news-
papers across Ontario have
recognized the achieve-
ments of mole than 260
young peop and 16
groups.. .
Of the nominees, six -18
years of age, 12 individuals
and one group can be cho-
sen to receive the Junior
Citizen of the Year Award
which is presented by the
Lieutenant Governor at a
special ceremony in Toron-
to.
Winners of the Ontario
Junior Citizens of the Year
Award receive a plaque, a
Junior Citizen of the year
Lapel Pin, $200 and a por-
trait.
If you know of a youth
who exhibits any of the
qualities mentioned above;
being an outstanding citi-
zen, selflessly giving their
time to help others or who
have battled a limitation
only to help others like
them, nominate them for
the Junior Achievement
Award.

Take care, stay safe on Halloween
It's almost time for witches to cack-
le and ghosts to haunt — it's almost
Halloween.
While the season is a joyful time for
children, parents can help ensure it's
also a safe one by following some tips
from the Canadian Red Cross.
When planning costumes:
• Keep costumes short, with no long
hanging pieces to trip over;
• Instead of masks, use makeup.
Masks limit visibility, and face -paint-
ing can be lots of fun;
• Weather in October is unpre-
dictable. Layering waterproof clothing
under a costume will help your chil-
dren stay warm if it is cool;
• Reflective materials make your
children more visible in the darkness
of the evening.
While trick -or -treating:
• Trick -or -treat early during day-
light or dusk;
• Don't let children go out and ap-
proach doors without adult supervi-
sion;
• If older children go out without
adult supervision, plan a route together
and note the expected time it will take
to complete the route;
• Remind children to cross at cross-
walks and traffic lights, and not to zig-
zag across streets.
After collecting Halloween treats:
• Check treats and packages before
allowing your children to eat or un-
wrap them. Discard anything that has
not been wrapped or looks like it has
been tampered with; and
• Keep small candies away from
small children to avoid choking.
In addition to these tips, the Red
Cross offers a course for caregivers
and parents dealing with injury preven-
tion, child safety and first aid beyond
Halloween. For more information on
the course call 723-2933 ext. 204.

Fall blooms in the Hudson Valley
As the fall foliage season is
ending in the high peaks of New
York State's Adirondack Moun-
tains, the brilliant spectacle is just
reaching peak colour in the lower
Hudson Valley.
An excellent fall tour follows
Route 9 south, crosses the Hud-
son River, and then follows Route
9W north, providing stunning and
panoramic views of the Hudson
River Valley countryside all along
the way.
Take Route 9 south to
Rhinebeck, and visit the Old
Rhinebeck Aerodrome.
The Aerodrome boasts a fasci-
nating collection of vintage First
World War fighter planes for avi-
ation buffs.
Fall foliage rides are offered
each weekend in open cockpit bi-
planes.
Continue south on Route 9
along the scenic Hudson River.
In Hyde Park visitors can ex-
plore the elegantly landscaped
grounds and enjoy breathtaking
river views at the Franklin and
Eleanor Roosevelt National His-
toric Sites and the 1898 Vander-
bilt Mansion National Historic
Site.
Tours of the mansions are
available daily, from 9 a.m. to 5
p.m.
Splendid vistas, historic sites dot colourful New York landscape
Next, head toward the delight-
ful antiquing towns of Beacon,
Cold Spring and Garrison. Re-
sume driving along Route 9 south
to the communities of Sleepy
Hollow and Tarrytown.
This area (just about 24 miles
north of Manhattan) attracts
many visitors year-round.
Philipsburg Manor, Lyndhurst,
and Sunnyside are three of the
area's restored homes open to
visitors.
Philipsburg Manor, in Sleepy
Hollow, is a living history muse-
um: a working 18th -century farm
with a stone manor house, a
water -powered grist mill and
farm animals.
Lyndhurst, a Gothic -revival
mansion formerly owned by rail-
road baron Jay Gould is replete
with furnishings from the late -
19th and early -20th centuries.
You'll find Lyndhurst on Route 9
in Tarrytown.
Also in Tarrytown, Sunnyside,
the charmingly picturesque for-
mer home of Washington Irving,
has period furnishings and land-
scaped grounds. Tours of all three
estates are available through Oc-
tober.
Cafes and picnic grounds are
available on site.
Cross the Hudson River on the
Bed and breakfast
in Ireland
Ideally, visitors to Ireland prefer to
grab a rental car and just drive. That's
why bed and breakfast accommodations
en route are so popular. And while pre -
booking is advised in peak season there
is now an option to also go as you
please.
A program with Air Transat Holi-
days features as many as 250 bed and
breakfasts across Ireland and Northern
Ireland, where you travel on a pre -paid
voucher system. Pay here in Canadian
dollars (an average of $52 per person
per night) and map out your own route.
Travelling can also be done on the
"pre -booked" option, where reserva-
tions are made prior to departure from
Canada. Or, you can use the "go -as -
you -please" option.

Sports Editor
PICKERING — When
the helmet goes on and the
car's on the track, it doesn't
matter if it's a man or a
woman in the driver's seat.
That's the philosophy of
Pickering's Deborah Men-
donga who experienced a
breakthrough season behind
the wheel this year, beating
the boys in the traditionally
male -dominated sport of car
racing.
In only her second full
season driving her Nissan
NX 2000, the mother of two
captured the points title in
the Ontario Challenge Cup
Grand Touring 3 class.
The nine -event, closed -
wheel racing series ran at
Mosport International
Speedway, near Bow-
manville, and Shannonville
Speedway, near Belleville,
this past summer. Racing in
the series began in April and
continued until early Octo-
ber.
Mendonga says she was
delighted, but not surprised,
by her strong showing in the
racing series this season.
"I'm pleased with how it
went, but I can't say I'm par-
ticularly surprised," said
Mendonga. "I expected to
finish in the top three. Cer-
tainly I was pleased with the
outcome."
Racing against men was
not problematic for her. In
fact, many of her male com-
petitors were complimentary
of her driving skills by the
end of the series.
"Once I put the helmet
on, it shouldn't matter (that
I'm a woman)," said Men-
donga. "I think I'm competi-
tive. I think it could hurt
their egos, but it shouldn't
matter. In the last three or
four races in the series, I've
proven myself. As I tell
them, `there's no pink on my
car' ."
Racing cars has been a
family affair as her father
raced for many years and
also owned a Honda dealer-
ship. Her brother .Roger
raced motorcycles and was
crowned Canadian champi-
on in the 250-c.c. class in
1984.
"I guess racing has al-
ways been in my blood," she
admitted.
Her best showing this
season came at Mosport Oct.
1 in the ninth and final race.
Mendonga finished second,
but she was pushed the en-
tire way during the tiring
and gruelling one-hour race.
"It was the most demand-
ing race both mentally and
physically," recalled Men-
donga. "Three of us were in
the running and basically we
were in competition with
each other through the
whole race. Any one of us
could have won, it was that
close."
In fact, Mendonga held
A.J. GROEN/News Advertiser photo
the lead until the final lap
when she was passed by a
driver with whom she had
been duelling the entire race.
"I let him pass because it
wasn't worth something
happening," noted Men-
donga, adding it was more
important to finish the race
and get the necessary points
than to win. "It was just a
very intense race."
Mendonga recalls the
racing season didn't get off
to a particularly good start,
as she finished fifth in the
first couple of races. Howev-
er, her confidence level grew
as she became more accus-
tomed to the intense one-
hour of racing.
"Actually at the begin-
ning of the season it was
kind of disappointing. I was
pulling in fifths and that sort
of thing. My philosophy is I
don't want to be racing and
chasing the pack. You want
to be competitive."
This year was her first in
the Grand Touring 3 class.
Last year, she raced in the
sprint class for Ontario Re-
gion and was awarded the
Knap Trophy for outstand-
ing sportsmanship by the
Canadian Automobile
Sports Club.
Mendonga's unsure
where she'll be racing next
season. Although she would
like continue to hone her
driving skills in a more com-
petitive series, she still has-
n't made up her mind as to
what direction she'll go.
"Even if I can get into a
higher classification within
the (Ontario Challenge Cup)
racing series, that's also an
option," she said.
Pickering's Debbie Mendonca captured the overall
championship of the Ontario Challenge Cup in the GT
3 class this past season.

Pickering soccer team achieves double the success this season
Power girls earn Cup,
Ajax tourney crown
PICKERING — The Pick-
ering Power Lone Star Cafe
under -10 girls' rep soccer team
achieved double the success on
the soccer pitch this season.
The Power girls were double
champions, winning both the
Central Girls Soccer League
(CGSL) East Division Cup
Tournament and the Ajax Invi-
tational Tournament recently.
The coveted CGSL Cup Tro-
phy is designed to have the di-
visional teams square off in an
elimination format. Pickering
faced a challenging road to the
championship, but all the hard
work and training during the
season came to the fore in this
event.
The Pickering under- 10s
played the Ajax United Magic
in the final. Although Pickering
played with quality and deter-
mination in the first half, Ajax
played with equal courage
yielding a scoreless first half. In.
the second half, however, the
relentless pressure on the
Magic finally paid dividends.
The Lone Star girls scored three.
outstanding goals in the first 15
minutes of the half, putting the
game out of reach for Ajax and
ensuring the Cup champi-
onship.

CER
In the first round, the Power
avenged an earlier defeat by
Whitby with a 2-0 win. In the
semifinal match against Peter-
borough, Pickering showed
strong technical qualities in a 5-
0 victory that earned them a
berth in the championship
game.
Pickering also played in its
final tournament of the year,
The Ajax Invitational Tourna-
ment. The Power girls played
games against Ajax United
Magic, Peterborough, Aurora
and Georgetown in the prelimi-
nary round. The winner of the
group qualified for the tourna-
ment final.
The Lone Star girls earned a
record of 3-0-1 to advance to
the final against the Ajax War-
riors. Although the girls sprint-
ed out to a 2-0 lead late in the
first half, Ajax responded with a
goal before the half-time break
and one more to tie the game at
2-2 early in the second. Once
again, the determination and
soccer quality of the Pickering
squad showed through as they
scored the winning goal and
kept constant pressure on its op-
ponents until the final whistle.
In pool play, Pickering de-
feated Ajax United 1-0 in a
hard-fought game. A powerful
offensive performance against
Peterborough resulted in a 6-1
win in Game 2, while in the
best game of the day, Pickering
and Aurora played to an excit-
ing scoreless draw. In its final
round-robin game, Pickering
posted a 2-0 win over George-
town to advance to the final.
