However, detailed results of the OHA study indicate 83 per cent of patient,; surveyed locally rated the overall quality of hospital care they received as good to excellent, according to Bruce Cliff, chief op- erating officer of the Ajax and Pickering Health Centre.

Council Wednesday delayed considering the suggestions of Whitby's Joe Drumm and Pat Perkins that Region politicians be directly elected to Durham council starting with the 2000 municipal election and that the number of Re- gion representatives be- slashed to 15 from the current 28 in the 2(X)3 cicction. Coun. Drumm said he and his Whitby colleague made the propos- als to "achieve the continuation of local municipal government" by re- ducing the size of the regional tier. He noted the Province has asked regional governments to reduce the number of politicians and their pro- posal ..does just that". The plan would also see the Durham chairman elected at large in 2003 and local councils reduced proportionately with the cut at the regional level.

Rob McLean, now 21, had been charged with assault causing bodi- ly harm. The charges were with- drawn after Mr. McLean's team- mate, Jeremy Smith, pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm.

ENG COMMISSIONER OF WORKS Councillor John Mutton sug- gested a council of 20 mem- bers plus the chairman, with mayors excluded. Ajax Mayor Steve Parish expressed opposition to the proposal to exclude mayors from regional council. "Directly elected mem- bers with no direct access to their council has been disas- trous. Where it's happened. it's extinct because it didn't work;" he said. "One of our strengths is we sit on kcal councils. Each mayor in a two-tier system sits on the upper level. Think of yourself as a mayor and you couldn't come here and give your voice to a matter. It would be totally untenable" Mayor Parish believes is- sues facing the Greater Toronto Area, such as trans- portation, are more important than the size of local coun- cils. "People don't say to me 'You need fewer politicians'. They say to me 'I can't get from point A to point B be- cause there's gridlock"' SHAWA ..................

Durham District School Board trustees approved a plan in June 1998 to substantially increase the number of computers in classrooms over a three- year period, with the goal of adding 1,6(X) to schools here by the year 2(x)1. The plan called for all schools to be upgraded for electrical wiring in the summer of 1998 and for live computer workstations to be installed in each Grade I to 6 classroom over the three- year span. Computers were installed in all Grade 1 and 2 classrooms last year and the board is in the process of putting live computer workstations in Grade 3 and 4 classes this year, reports Laura Elliott, Charged with drug offences, man turns self in One of two re- maining alleged conspirators in an Oshawa -based crack -trafficking ring turned him - sell' in to Durham Regional Police headquarters Tuesday.

"Ideally, if we have more funds for technology, computers will be installed in Grade 5 and 6 classrooms (next year)," she says. "Unless we get more money from the Ministry (of Education) we won't be able to roll out computers (to those classes) or to drop the ratio (of' students to computers) in secondary schools. - The board won't receive word on its funding allocation from the Province until spring. And, Ms. Elliott says if there's no new money the board "will have to rethink our strategy for the Teaching and Learning with Computers ('ILC) software.

Yes, Mr. Furneaux, there arc provincial and federal taxes on gasoline. All together they amount to 45 per cent of the price per litre. But let's take into account a few things that were not included in your letter. First, the combined fed- smaving I was a bozo. A long time ago on a stretch of road not far from here, I got in my car after a party and drove home. Yes. I had had too much to drink. No. I wasn't pulled over in a RIDE spot-check. Yes. I was lucky. I was lucky I made it home safely. More importantly, I was lucky I did- n't prevent anyone travelling the same roads I did that night from mak- ing it home safely. The Redt-ced Impaired Driving Everywhere program is trying to get people to act responsibly. The pro - grain is not trying to stop people from drinking. That is a health issue people must deal with on their own. RIDE is about considering alternatives — des- ignated drivers, cabs or public transit. RIDE is about doing the smart thing. Yet, the numbers are staggering. Three weeks into this year's program, Durham Regional Police have stopped 18,325 vehicles at RIDE checks and administered 207 road - John Duarte Staff Editor side breath tests. Twenty-seven peo- ple have been charged so far. Doesn't sound like a lot, but how many lives are those 27 people endangering? People aren't getting it. While Durham police report the number of drunk driving charges per number of vehicles stopped is similar to last year's figures, there is a marked in- crease in the number of 12 -hour li- cence suspensions.

Yes, Mr. Furneaux, there arc provincial and federal taxes on gasoline. All together they amount to 45 per cent of the price per litre. But let's take into account a few things that were not included in your letter. First, the combined fed- smaving I was a bozo. A long time ago on a stretch of road not far from here, I got in my car after a party and drove home. Yes. I had had too much to drink. No. I wasn't pulled over in a RIDE spot-check. Yes. I was lucky. I was lucky I made it home safely. More importantly, I was lucky I did- n't prevent anyone travelling the same roads I did that night from mak- ing it home safely. The Redt-ced Impaired Driving Everywhere program is trying to get people to act responsibly. The pro - grain is not trying to stop people from drinking. That is a health issue people must deal with on their own. RIDE is about considering alternatives — des- ignated drivers, cabs or public transit. RIDE is about doing the smart thing. Yet, the numbers are staggering. Three weeks into this year's program, Durham Regional Police have stopped 18,325 vehicles at RIDE checks and administered 207 road - John Duarte Staff Editor side breath tests. Twenty-seven peo- ple have been charged so far. Doesn't sound like a lot, but how many lives are those 27 people endangering? People aren't getting it. While Durham police report the number of drunk driving charges per number of vehicles stopped is similar to last year's figures, there is a marked in- crease in the number of 12 -hour li- cence suspensions. Case in point: Consider one genius who was nabbed twice in 12 days. "It would appear, unfortunately, some people simply just don't learn," offers Sergeant Jim Grimley.

Pupils from St. Mary Catholic Secondary School in Pickering arc returning approximately 2,000 copies of the Province's Millenni- um Memento to Education Minis- ter Janet Ecker to protest govern- ment spending. And, students from Port Perry High School are taking 1,000 copies of the book back to Durham MPP John O'Toole's constituency office in Bowmanville. "We completely disagree with the government spending $2.5 mil- lion of the Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation's budget (on these books);" says Rebecca Cohn, an OAC student at Port Perry High School. "It's ridicu- lous ... the money could have been better spent ... it's a major waste of money." An initiative of the Province's $20 -million Ontario 2000 pro- gram, the 'My Ontario' books in- clude works from elementary and secondary school students who were asked to share their vision of Ontario in the year 2020 and how they plan to contribute to making that vision a reality. "There is nothing in them that appeals to us ... It's an excuse to make the government look good," says Ryan Reid, a student council member at St. Mary. The Grade 12 pupil reports, "Students were very angered these books cost so much. That money could have been spent to get (stu- dents) out of portables or on better textbooks. "All of the students have given their books back to us, we've put them in boxes and we're delivering them to Janet Ecker," the Grade 12 student said. Mr. Reid describes the books as CARL FERF_NC7/ News Advertiser photo Student council members at St. Mary Catholic Secondary School in Pickering dumped copies of the 'My Ontario' books provided to stu- dents across the province. Students say money spent on the books could have been better spent on education needs. From left are Richard Robinson. Kevin Keane, Richard Wiltshire anbd Rvan Reid. The Pickering students are returning the bmoks to Pickering -Ajax - Uxbridge MPP Janet Ecker, Ontario's Minister of Education. "basically 150 pages of drawings from elementary school students that say what they want to be when they grow up." The books, delivered to each of the 2.1 million pupils in the province, also include space for students to write about their own feelings as they prepare for the new millennium. "There are about 60 blank pages," Miss Cohn says. "It's like a journal" Meanwhile, Mr. Reid reported the plan to return the books to the government was organized by stu- dents who visited classes Tuesday to tell pupils the Province spent more than $2 million on the pro- ject. "This is student -organized. We're not involving the staff in this. We don't want to put them in an awkward position," he said. Mary Brown, communications manager for the Durham District School Board, said Wednesday she had not heard of any other local schools that were planning to re- turn the materials. However, groups of students from schools across the province have been returning thousands of books to the offices of their local MPPs and to Queen's Park over the past two weeks. But, that doesn't trouble Ms. Ecker. She says schools and boards are free to use the books as they wish and she welcomes the returns if students choose not to keep them. "The nice thing about the re- turns is the phone has been ringing off the hook with people wanting other copies;' she says. Ms. Ecker• who describes the project as "an opportunity to pro- mote students' work;' reports the idea for the books came from par- ents, pupils and teachers across Ontario.

The Social Development Coun- cil of Ajax -Pickering is hoping to de- velop a site along with the Volunteer Centre of Durham Region that will list agencies looking for helpers, along with such information as the types of services provided by the agency and when it needs volun- teers. Duncan Read, executive direc- tor of the Social Development Coun- cil, says the "need for a much better method of getting access to informa- tion" on volunteering was highlighted in its Community Wellness Project_ "People expressed a desire to volunteer, but said they needed in- formation and didn't know how to get it; Mr. Read explains. At the same time, many agen- cies depend on volunteers for sur- vival. "We're trying to bring together the two strands into an electronic system of accessing information" says Mr. Read, who believes there are some 3.000 agencies in Durham that depend on volunteers. Mr. Read is hoping an Internet site could be up and running some- time in April. Secret Santa is on the prowl Survey results in, hospital officials pledge SURVEY from page 1 tended to be used to help improve performance and patient care in Ontario, as well as to enhance public accountability of hospitals. RVHS placed fifth among the hospitals in Ontario with the low- est overall scores on the report cards; tied for sixth among those with the most below-average scores; and placed third along with Mississauga's Trillium Health Centre among those with the most below-average scores in patient satisfaction. The rankings were compiled by RVHS, says Ajax site spokesper- son Katie Cronin -Wood. "We crunched those numbers ourselves. That was just so we could see where we rated against other hospitals." Ms. Cronin -Wood says the re- port data received from the OHA so far does not break down the rat- ings and performance indicators between the two RVHS sites. She expects that information will be made available in January. In the data released to the media at a press conference in Toronto, the 89 hospitals partici- pating in the study were ranked as performing at a level above aver- age, average or below average in: • clinical utilization and outcomes — diagnostic and treatment prac- tices and outcomes for patients dealing with heart attacks, asthma, pneumonia, stroke, cholecystecto- my (removal of the gall bladder), hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) and prostatectomy (re- moval of the prostate); • financial performance and condi- tions — in areas such as financial viability, efficiency, capital ex- penses and the percentage of staff resources devoted to patient care; • patient satisfaction — based on analysis of 26,000 patient ques- tionnaires, asking questions relat- ing to quality of care and satisfac- tion with each hospital; • system integration and change — measuring how each hospital is changing to meet future health care needs, through indicators such as information use, internal co-ordination of care and co-ordi- nation of care with outside agen- cies. While RVHS scored below av- erage in five of eight patient satis- faction indicators — patients' per- ception of hospital quality; nurs- ing care; ancillary patient care staff (such as lab and radiology personnel); support services (in- cluding quality of food); and housekeeping — its performance was solidly average in the three other patient satisfaction areas evaluated. In ratings for system integra- tion and change, RVHS received one below-average rating — for internal co-ordination of care — and average for eight other indica- In the area of clinical utilization and outcomes, above-average scores were received by RVHS in two indicators — for use of diag- nostic technologies in treating heart attacks and for achieving shorter lengths of stay for stroke patients. Its rating was average for the 10 other indicators in that cat- egory. In financial performance and condition, RVHS finished with av- to improve erage ratings on all nine indica- tors. Mr. Cliff says he wasn't sur- prised by the low patient satisfac- tion found with support services and housekeeping because those were areas the hospital made cuts to so more resources could be de- voted to clinical services. "Since March I've added addi- tional resources in those (support services and housekeeping) areas;' he notes, adding the cuts had been ".too deep" Mr. Cliff also points out APHC has been operating at 115 -to- 120 - per cent capacity most days and has had to stretch all its resources a long way. "I think we're doing well given the stress the organiza- tion's under every day now" Still, he adds, it's clear there are areas the hospital can improve in and it "will continue to do that". .Detailed study information pro- vided to RVHS also indicated pa- tients rated hospital services to be excellent or good 75 to 85 per cent of the time in the entire range of patient satisfaction categories, ac- cording to Mr. Cliff.

"Ali cobblestones and mo- dicval atmosphere. You'll love it'" So armed with a BritRail pass, and a sheaf of information about this Cinque Port, we take off from London on a day trip to the Sussex coast. Rye goes hack to the time of Alfred the Great, who in the 9th century rec- ognized the importance of det'ending Britain's shore- line and founded what would eventually become the invincible British Navy. William the Conqueror took this a step further and desig- nated strategic towns along the Sussex coastline as 'Cinque Ports,' whose prime objectives were shipbuild- ing and naval defence. in re- turn, these ports received royal patronage, financial assistance and favourable tax breaks. (Are you listen- ing to this Ottawa?) By the Middle Ages, Rye was flourishing. Not just as a naval base, but as a thriving smugglers' paradise as well. II takes no stretch of imagination to picture 'old' Rye. In fact, the town is like a movie stage set where an elegant carriage and pair might well appear around a corner, clattering over cob- blestone streets, scattering aside dogs, domesticated pigs. chickens, children and long -skirted housewives in its wake. We stroll through a labyrinth of narrow lanes, past 18th century half-tim- bered houses which lean to- wards each other as if whis- pering secrets of their past-, some wear crooked stove- pipe chimneys and pointed gable hats, others spill scar- let geraniums from window boxes perched against their hay windows. Halfway along Mermaid Street is one of Rye's oldest and most well-known hostelries: the 16th century 'Mermaid inn,' with its mul- lioned windows and ivy- covered entrance archway. Tucked into its past are tales of the notorious Hawkhurst gang of cut-throat smug- glers who used to gather there to plot, drink and carouse into the wee small hours. Photo courtesy of Ph%lhs Bearan A cobblestone street lines the centre- of Rye. On the right is the Mermaid Inn which dates buck to the 16th centurv. Mermaid Inn also hosted distinguished visitors and although not supported by any hard f'acts, the story gms that this was where Queen Elizabeth I slept the night when she visited the town in 1573, after which she bestowed on it the title of 'Royal Rye.' Mermaid Inn still lives up to its repu- tation, its oak-Kcamed ceil- ings and stone fireplaces Identify goods before travelling If you're planning a trip in the com- ming weeks, you can protect the ex- pensive goods you plan to bring along.

The Durham District School Board and local members of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF) agreed not to proceed with a hearing into allegations by both parties against the other because the process would have been too lengthy. "Although both the board and union repre- sentatives participated actively and in good faith in the OLRB medi- ation process. we real- ized that the hearing process would not pro- duce a timely and benefi- n't tial result for students for the balance of this school year;' says board director Grant Yeo. Public board officials filed charges under the Labour Relations Act Oct. 6 alleging high school teachers are par- ticipating in an illegal strike action by with- holding participation in extracurricular activities and events such as school commencements. That allegation was part of the board's re- sponse to a charge laid by OSSTF and an indi- vidual teacher Sept. 24 alleging the board was using unfair labour prac- tices. The labour board hearing into the matter began Noy. 19 and a media blackout was is- sued at that time. According to the school board, a full hear- ing into the allegations would likely have con- tinued until next fail, Lug on t well beyond the start of negotiations with OSSTF on a new collec- tive agreement to take effect in September 2000. OSSTF president Shelley Page reports the two parties met with the labour board four times. Since both sides agreed to halt the hearing, that decision ..essentially puts us back where we were on Oct. 5 ... only with a lot of unnecessary hostility in the schools:' Ms. Page reports the union had hoped the board would find a way to reach a deal with its teachers, especially since the board recently issued $160 million in deben- tures to fund the con- struction of new schools. She maintains the board could have used a portion of that money to pay for more computers in schools.

'. Durham delays decision on airport designation Politicians agree to let `stakeholders' process continue Durham politicians have grounded until next year any notion of calling on the fed- eral government to designate lands in north Pickering as an airport site. Regional councillors de- cided Wednesday to hold off on asking for the designation until their first meeting in June while the 'stakeholders process' continues. That stakeholders or `agreements approach' would see Pickering apply local zoning bylaws to regu- late land uses near the airport site. It's the preferred option of airport opponents who fear federal government designa- tion of the lands for an air- port would result in such a facility being developed sooner. Stephen Fredericks, presi- dent of Voters Organized to Cancel the Airport Lands, told politicians the Region would "usurp and hijack the process' by asking for the designation while the stake- holders process is under way. Mr. Fredericks likened asking for the designation while the stakeholders process is under way to "get - NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, December 17,1999 PAGE 13 A/P STEPHEN FREDERICKS 'What's the rush?' ting married and then getting engaged" The stakeholders process should be completed by Au- gust of next year, he added. Besides, Mr. Fredericks asked councillors, "What's the rush! We've been told there's no plans for an air- port. The Greater Toronto Airports Authority feels there's no rush " Expansion work now under way at Pearson Airport will handle the area's travel needs for another 30 to 40 years. he added.

CHRISTMAS MUSI- CAL: Pickering Christian Mental Health Centre iiets 4.- 20 more beds B k' CINUY UPSHALL Staff Writer Twenty more medium secure forensic beds are on the way for the Whitby Mental Health Centre. -If they were available today they would be used almost in their entirety al- most immediately.- says Ron Ballantyne, adminis- trator of the centre, who says the increase in this kind of program is needed within the facility's catch- ment area. "Certainly in our service area there is a greater need then we were able to provide" The new beds were an- nounced by Health Minis- ter Elizabeth Witmer Wednesday as part of ex- panded funding for ser- vices in the north, east and southwest areas of the province. In total, 140 medium secure beds and $19.1 mil- lion in additional funding were announced. The new Whitby beds will be in addition to the 40 medium secure forensic beds currently at the facili- ty. However Mr. Ballan- tyne say it's unclear when the beds will be able to be open to patients because beds will have to be taken from other programs to ac- commodate the extra 20. "We're certainly not looking at building any- thing new here considering ultimately we'll have beds vacant as a result of re- structuring," Mr. Ballan- tyne says.

It's simple. We made a car for a bigger family. We even put a bigger engine in it. An optional V6 with 182 ponies. (That's car lingo far ) But if our larger mid-size LS just isn't big enough foryou, try the LW wagon on for size. It has all the same eat:u ' you've come to love about a Saturn. The durable rust and dent resistant polymer panels, steel modified spaceframe, and a 30 day (or 2,500 km) money -back guarantee. It's for people who want the room of a minivan, but don't want to feel as though they're driving a tractor -trailer. (O.K. we're exaggerating, butyou know what we mean.) So when you have a little time, drop by a Saturn retailer and take one for a test drive. Preferably, an the day you go grocery shopping. The payments shown are based on the MSRP for our 2000 LSI and SLI and include freight, PDI and excise tax. License, taxes, insurance and a refundable security deposit of $300 are extra. Lease ' payments are based on a low km lease of 60,000 km over 3 years with an extra charge of 12e per km =are distance. Saturn's lease rate of 4.9% applies to customers with approved credit. If you'd like to buy your Saturn at lease end, it's $12,723 plus taxes for the LSI and 59,050 plus taxes for the SLI. With a $2,915 and a $2,050 dowapa trent respectively, the maximum lease obligation (act including taxes) is $13,279 for the ISI and $10,139 for the SLI.
