Durham kids urged not to
BY SUSAN O'NE/[d.
Staff Writer
Teaching students about the dan-
gers of smoking was a hot topic in
classrooms last week as schools
marked National Non -Smoking Week
with interactive programs and activi-
ties.
"There are so many schools and
only so many opportunities to get in
and talk to students about tobacco use
prevention," says Catherine Walker,
project co-ordinator for Durham
Lives!, a heart disease and cancer pre-
vention program launched in Pickering
and Oshawa earlier this month. "We're
trying to find the most exciting and in-
novative ways (to discuss prevention
with young people)."
One new initiative being offered in
public and separate schools in
Uxbridge this week is a program called
Packaged Lies, sponsored by Durham
Lives! and the Committee for a
Smoke -Free Uxbridge.
"It's a new puppet show and inter-
active workshop with youth about to-
bacco prevention," Ms. Walker ex-
plains, adding she hopes the program
will expand to schools in other munic-
ipalities soon.
Developed by Karen Marks, a reg-
istered nurse in Uxbridge. Packaged
Lies is designed to use positive peer
pressure to "teach students how to
make good choices.
"The idea is for students to talk to
students about tobacco prevention,"
Ms. Marks adds, noting "one of the
reasons kids start smoking is peer pres-
sure."
And, she says if peer pressure can
be used in a positive way, then maybe
kids won't start smoking.
The program's star, a cigarette pup-
pet called Burny Butts, gives students
information about the dangers of
smoking during an interactive puppet
show.
"I felt if I was going to be putting in
the time (to develop a program for
schools) it should be something good,"
Ms. Marks says. "Little people pay at-
tention to puppets and older kids pay
attention to their peers.
"Something has to get the message
through to these kids. We have to get
to these kids before they start smok-

move to hike the teaching load to
seven of eight classes last fall
sparked a three-week teachers' strike
in September.
"1'm pleased that it's over," noted
Mr. Burch of the arbitration. "It's
been a long process."
He reports the ruling, which
"favours" the final offer put forward
by the board, has necessitated the
hiring of 66 additional secondary
teachers.
"We hired about 66 teachers last
Wednesday night," Mr. Burch says,
noting -we knew we would have to
hire at least 66 teachers because that
was our final offer."
He says the board will continue
the hiring process this weekend and
estimates roughly 40 occasional
teachers are still to be hired.
"We're increasing the number of
teachers and decreasing the work-
load," he said in an interview.
"We're hoping the 66 teachers will
help ease the burden of seven of
eight. It won't go all the way, but it
will help."
-Tile arbitrated settlement, which
covers the period from Sept. I, 1998
to Aug. 31, 2000, also means teach-
ers won't get a wage increase. And
Ms. Jermey says that means teach-
ers, whose last increase was in 1992,
will go eight years with no pay hike.
She also reports there have been
"a number of resignations from the
board on a daily basis" because of
the increased demands being placed
on teachers. Yet Mr. Burch says
there have been "no more than
usual."
Under the )rovincial govern-
ment's Back to School Act, which
ended teachers' strikes and lockouts
last fall, school boards and teachers
federations were placed in a manda-
tory mediation/arbitration situation
in several regions across the
Province.
And, in all of the cases settled to
date, arbitrators have accepted board
positions.
Meanwhile, Graeme McKechnie,
the mediator -arbitrator appointed to
deal with the negotiations between
the Durham Catholic District School
Board and loca members of the On-
torio English f atholic Teachers' As-
ing," she adds, explaining that's why
it's important to target pupils before
they're in Grade 6. "Twelve is the big
age. In Grades 3 to 5 students are dead
set against smoking, but in Grades 6 to
8 they begin to change the way they
think. And a lot of it is peer pressure.
"When we take our smoking pre-
vention programs to young people in
the schools, we are able to assist youth
to resist peer pressure and the influ-
ences of advertising and to choose not
to start smoking," says Mary Sue O'-
Connor, Durham Region Health De-
partment representative for the Com-
mittee for a Smoke Free Uxbridge.
addition to programs that are
light up
under way this week, the region's two
school boards also offer tobacco pre-
vention programs year round, includ-
ing the Values Influences and Peers
(VIP) program, which focuses on to-
bacco and alcohol as well as on deci-
sion-making and peer pressure, and the
Lions -Quest programs which help
young people develop positive social
behaviours and drug-free lifestyles.
Meanwhile, Burny Butts and the
Packaged Lies program are heading to
Claremont Public School next week.
"Hopefully we can make a differ-
ence in some kids' thinking so they'll
be better equipped to say 'no';' Ms.
Marks says.

Bring on
the Games
Pickering could see benefits
from a successful Toronto bid
Never mind the scandal.
And let's nod our heads knowingly over the mega -city's
proviso that it will only bid on the 2008 Olympic Games if
it's a clean and fair process.
Bring on those Games.
Pickering is putting the potential benefits for its facili-
ties and local economy ahead of the ethical angst and scan-
dal surrounding the Olympic site bidding process and is
throwing its support behind Toronto's bid for the 2008
Summer Olympic Games.
As Ward 3 Councillor Rick Johnson notes. "It would be
our foothold to work towards putting Pickering and
Durham on the map."
Indeed.
Pickering, situated a, it is on the eastern fringe of
Toronto, can benefit in many ways from a successful
Toronto bid to host the Games. And. as Toronto gains. so
too does the Town of Pickering and its citizens.
Some of the frills for Pickering in anticipation of the
2008 Summer Games would be a speeding up of the pro-
posed Durham College University campus in north Picker-
ing: a commuter GO station at Brock and Taunton roads,
the creation of additional sports and/or training facilities
which would be enjoyed by Pickering residents for gener-
ations to come. the construction of a hotel facility here.
And those specific, so-called hard services and benefits
can be seen and touched. What of the economic activity the
Olympic Games would bring'' Think of the international
recognition of not only Toronto, but its neighbouring towns
and regions, like Pickering and Durham? The spectacle of
hosting visiting athletes and dignitaries? The pride of co -
hosting a truly global event with all of its pomp and cere-
mony, if you will?
Pickering Regional Councillor Maurice Brenner argues
that Pickering is an ideal location for hosting sailing and
other water -related competitions. He, too, points out the
demand for better facilities — and even new roads —
could very well be in the Town's future if the Gaines were
awarded to Toronto.
It's all conceptual and wishful thinking right now, but it
could happen. Couldn't it'!
Says Coun. Brenner: '~ahoy are all dreams, but those
dreams could become a reality."
Indeed.
Let's also throw our support behind the mega -city's bid
to host the 2008 Summer Olympics. With the backing of its
citizenry, one could even argue that Pickering's support is
mewwred in Olympic proportions.
Drive clean
in Ontario
New program not a tax grab,
but designed to curb pollution
You may think of it as just another government cash
grab.
Or, you may prefer to think of it as a victory for the en-
vironmentalists.
Whatever you think, it's time for you to clean up your
vehicular act.
Under Ontario's new Drive Clean program, which
takes effect l this spring, each and every aging car in the
province will be required to pass emissions testing every
two years.
It will cost you money. It will be somewhat more in-
convenient, comparatively speaking. But it will also en-
sure that fewer toxic chemicals will make their way into
our atmosphere and help us to collectively reduce air pol-
lution.
Keep your car tuned. Follow the proven tips to reduce
gas consumption. Drive clean.
Your children will thank you for it.

Complaints lead
to review of school
safety ProoTam
Parents question advice given
to young students
BY SUSAN O'NI.111.
Staff Writer
A popular streetproofing
program designed to in-
crease safety awareness
among elementary students
is being reviewed by the
Durham District School
Board in light of concerns
raised by parents and police
about the message the course
delivers.
The Youth Awareness and
Safety Program, offered to
students at Cadarackque
Public School in Ajax last
week. is in its 10th year tour-
ing schools throughout the
GTA.
And, co-ordinator Antho-
ny Tomlinson reports the
program is designed to teach
kids "street smarts" and raise
awareness about safety is-
sues.
Cm just making these
kids aware of what's going
on and how u) help them-
selves. The kids need this in-
formation. This is a life
skill.' he says.
However, sonic parents
and police officers here are
voicing concerns about the
program's approach to street
safety.
"We've heard sonic con-
cerns from some of the par-
ents about what they were
doing (in the progrunl:'says
Durham Regional Police
Sergeant Paul Malik, who re-
cently expressed his own
concerns about the program
W the rcgion's two school
boards.
Sgt. Malik, who has never
seen the program himself,
says he was alarmed by the
comments parents have
made about the self-defence
strategies taught through the
course.
-They're teaching (sow
dents) to fight without first
talking about what they
should be doing, which is
flight:' he says, adding it's
important to tell children.
-Don't put yourself in the
position where you have to
fight.'
But, Mr. Tomlinson main-
tains, if somebody grabs a
child "they need something
to help them get away ... I
leach the right techniques for
tae chit ien to help them--
selves.
hero-selves. It's all defensive
lechniqum not offensive."
He adds, "Self-defence is
one per cent of the program,
99 per cent of the program is
street smarts."
However, Durham Con-
stable Esther Rathwell, who
minis the Kid's Safety Village
In Whitby, says, "In none of
the programs we offer, do we
teach that a child should try
to defend themselves. That's
setting the kids up for some
problems.
"It's pretty scary to me, as
a police officer, that people
are telling kids things that
could really get them hurt:'
Const. Rathwell adds.
Ajax parent Anne de
Bruyn, who sat in on a ses-
sion at Cadarackque last
week, also has concerns
about the program.
"1 am all for promoting
self-respect, respect of oth-
ers, self-confidence, safety
and common-sense street
awareness in children, but
have to question whether this
is the best or most appropri-
ate way to accomplish these
laudable objectives," she
wrote in a letter to the public:
board.
Arid, in an interview. Ms.
de Bruyn said she didn't like
what she heard when she sat
in on a program for Grade 4,
5 and 6 students, noting
pupils were taught to use
physical force to escape an
attacker.
"Students were taught to
adopt what 1 believe was re-
ferred to as a 'war stance'
and then punch their attacker
in the r.ose," she report%,
adding "parents should be
aware of what is being
taught and how it's being
However, ]sir. Tonrlinsoa
notes, "I've been doing this
for 10 years now and I've
never had any complaints
like this."
And. Cadarackque princi-
pal Shirley McDonnell re-
ports the program, which
was approved by and paid
for through the school's par-
ent advisory committee. has
received glowing reviews
from other schools In the rc-
gN1a1.
It introduces students to
basic self-defence strategies
and increases awareness of
street safety:' she says.
adding "it's been very well
received by all of the other
schools."
Both Ms. McDonnell and
Kcvin Lowe, an administra-
tive officer with the public
board, sat in on the program
Thursday and said they saw
no problems with the materi-
al.
"I don't see a problem
with the program, Mr.
Lowe said. noting there was
"a very strong awareness and
safety message in the prc%cn-
tation."
But, Linda Lowery, sub-
stance abuse facilitator for
the public board. says the
board's safety and security
committee will be *'review-
ing" the program "in light of
the concerns expressed."
