And. big rig drivers got a $10.000 donation for their cause from the Canadian Auto Workers Wednesday and a pledge by union president Bu"- Hargrove that the CAW would further help their fight. Several hundred truckers from across southern Ontario gathered at the Metro East Trade Centre in Pickering mid -week to vent their anger over fuel prices that have doubled in the past year. The peaceful demonstration was held a day after more than 200 truckers drove in a convoy along Hw•v. 401 from Bow- manvillc to Pickering and back again to draw attention to their plight. Rig drivers have been off the job most of the week protesting fuel costs.

"Crime prevention is as sig- nificant as crime enforce- ment.' Insp. Morrison said. And. "It's important that the City and the police continue to work in partnership:' Insp.

Court was told the boy suffered deep bruising to his legs and but- tocks as a result of roughly 10 blows with a belt, inflicted by his 31 -year-old father Neil A. Williams during a weekend visit in May 1999. During his trial, the Ajax hair salon owner admitted striking the child with the belt, but maintained it was a -form of discipline to address his son's misbehaviour. Although the Criminal Code states parents can use reasonable force to correct a child's behaviour, Mr. Justice John Payne ruled his ac- tions were excessive.

Lure teachers back to extracurriculars, Durham board told B 1 MIKE RUT.4 Staji tti'riter Students and parents have demanded Durham's public board improve relations with its secondary teachers so ex- tracurricular activities can re- turn to the high schools. The Durham District School Board's public ques- tion period was dominated Monday by speakers who asked what the board has done the past two years to im- prove relations with teachers. "A lot of students are being hurt by the lack of ex- tracurricular activities:' said Martin Demmers, school community council chairman at Port Pem High School, "The audience here wants to know, what this board will do to reinstate extracurricular activities:, Board education director Grant l'eo reported negotia- tions with secondan teachers on a new collective agree- ment will begin in a few months and the beard expects to know in early 'March how much provincial grant money it will get to help pay salaries. Mr. UN -Trimers urged board officials to "negotiate in good faith. Be resolved we need (extracurriculars)" in schools. "For many students the extracurricular activities are the locomotive that pulls the train:' he said. An arbitrator's ruling in the board's favour a year ago forced Durham public high school teachers to instruct 6.5 of eight classes every two days. The increase from six of eight classes under the union's previous agreement with the board prompted high school teachers to withdraw participation in extracurricu- lar activities such as sports and drama, claiming the in- creased workload did not per- mit the=m to take part. Several Port Perry High students attended Monday's meeting, including school council co -president Chris Skinner. He suggested the board -just grin and bear it with this one and give the teachers what they want" by reducing the teacher work - Dad `very sorry' DAD fnvn page I iour of his child.

At hurts me to know I let this creature near my child:' Mr. Newman said Mr. Williams was removed from an abusive horse as a child and grew up in Toronto's Re- gent Park, which he called ''one of the worst housing pro)c:cts * Since his arrest, he has been barred from visiting with his son as well as three children from another rela- tionship. When invited to address the judge prior to sentencing. Mr. Williams said strapping his sun was only a "last re- sort" after trying other ways to punish the child for his be- havuur. " 1 am a father who wants to be a part of my children's lives. My mother and father weren't there:' he said. "I am vert sorry. I do love my um. When I go to bed I think about my son, all of my kids." Court was told Mr. Williams was convicted in 1995 for forcible confine- ment and aggravated assault. Mr. Justice Payne agreed Mr. Williams strapped his son as a corrective measure, which is "less serious than when a parent assaults a child out of anger or frustration:' But the judge rejected the defence lawyer's request for a non-custodial sentence, say- ing a jail term was necessary as an expression of "society's condemnation."

Board superintendent of business Ron Trbovich said the school system can't af- ford to reduce teacher work- load that much as it would cost an extra $7.5 million per year to hire additional educa- tors. He said the board is 68th out of 72 in Ontario in terms of provincial funding. "Are we getting our fair share? My answer is 'no':' said Mr. Trbovich. "We're out of sync with the rest of On- tario and is it any surprise with our funding situation? We're frankly frustrated. This problem needs to be ad- dressed at a provincial ievel as well:' Judy Yaksich, who has two children at Break High School in Cannington, asked. "What recourse do we as par- ents have?" Craig Burch, employee re- lations superintendent, said the board has been working since October on a way to allow volunteers to lead ex- tracurriculars. The proposal was to go to the ho)ard's in- surer, the Ontario School Boards Insurance Exchange. today. He said a "volunteer handbook- also has to be de- velopcd. "We are in the midst of this process and I can under- stand it is frustrating for par- ents and students:" said Mr. Burch. The insurer recently told the board it would not allow a procedure that does not cover both secondary and elemen- tary levels, he said. The vol- unteer policy must also have an adequate screening process and is "completely new ground for school boards in Ontario. Asked when it will be in place, Mr. Burch responded mid-April is the target date. But he stressed the extracur- riculars offered will not be the same as in the past when teachers led activities. And, Mr. Yeo noted, "it may never return to the way it was... before 1998:' Al Goodall, chairman of the SCC at Pine Ridge Sec- ondary School in Pickering, lamented about the effect on staff of the ongoing dispute. "We have lost quite a number of excellent teachers over the past two years:" he said, adding other schools have the same problem. Mr. Yeo said there are a number of boards where ac- tivities have been reduced. Huge expansion puts Durham College in a class by itself Fare creation of university az nig to Durham as GM: Polonsky BY SUSAN O'NF,ILL Staff Writer Ontario's "premier" manufacturing and information technology centre will be developed in Oshawa and the Durham College Skills Training Cen- tre in Whitby will be enlarged under a $48 -million expansion being unveiled today. The college is receiving $28.75 million from the Province's Super - Build campaign announced Tuesday. The government, together with a group of public and private -sector partners, is investing nearly $1.4 bil- lion in Ontario's post -secondary insti- tutions, with more than $330 million earmarked for 14 projects at schools in the Greater Toronto Area. And, that $28.75 million together with donations from a group of corpo- rate partners will enable the college to embark on a $48 -million expansion, college president Gary Polonsky told Durham Council Wednesday during a presentation about the need for a uni- versity here. "The $48 million will go a long way in Durham Region:" Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs said. "Every- one looks forward to that money hazing spent to benefit young people." Mr. Polonsky said news of the funding resulted in "one of the best professional days of my life. To hear that the government has confidence in us to the tune of $28.75 million ... it was a big day :' And, in an exclusive interview fol- lowing his presentation to Regional Council, Mr. Polonsky outlined the details of today's announcement, which includes the expansion of the Skills Training Centre in Whitby. "That in fact will he ready this fall because we've already begun the plan- ning on that, we've ordered the steel, so we took a bit of a gamble on that and it has paid off," Mr. Polonsky said. "'We want to be ready (for autumn) be- cause that place has run out of space:' Meanwhile, the Oshawa campus is in for a huge expansion, he reported. "We will be building Ontario's pre- mier manufacturing training centre, called MPTC, Manufacturing and In- formation Technology Centre;' said Mr. Polonsky. The facility "will be a barn burner for General Motors and for all of southern Ontario as a key re- source for advanced manufacturers" The "general college space" and the portion of the college devoted to university programs will also be ex- panded "We'll be creating a new entrance- way and communications hub and we will be renewing the infrastructure of the older parts of the college both with -information technology and a physical renewal," he said. Mr. Polonsky reported the college will fund the project with the $28.75 million from the Province and dona- tions from corporate partners includ- ing Bell Canada, General Motors, IBM and Nortel. - Other partners that supported the college in its Creating Futures Cam- paign, such as the Region of Durham Public school students across Durharn will start classes in the fall on Sept. 5, enjoy a 10 -day Christmas vacation and Let a head start on 'March hrcak under the 2MO-20M calendar aF proved by trustees Monday.

"Because we're getting the money this week and it will take us a year - and -a -half to start building (the Os- hawa campus expansion), we'll be able to earn about $3 million in inter- est and that gets us up to the $48 mil- lion:" he said.

Separate programs in Ajax and Pickering have been merged to form one organization, new chairman Leslee Hiebert says. The groups were joined because of the difficulty each was having in attracting enough people to serve on executive positions. Joining Mrs. Hiebert on the exec- utive are Colin Knauf as vice-chair- man, while Graeme Walker is in charge of publicity, John Robinson and Bruce Hampson are in charge of the sign committee, Teri Pereria is the secretary, and Blaise Fraser, Louise Poirier and Eren Pyper are in charge of the education committee. "We want to get back into schools and re-educate children" about Block Parents, she says. Traffic issues also require vigilance: Police TRAFFIC from page 1 now;' he said, especially since a large percentage of the population here is under 24 yeah of age. He reported liaison officers who work with youth in local schools are involved in everything from investiga- tions to organizing programs for stu- dents. Fatal crashes and other serious col- lisions can be reduced by accident awareness programs and a Neighbour- hood Traffic Watch initiative being launched in March, Insp. Morrison said. "Pickering is a catch-hasin for traf- fic. It's a significant problem from a community perspective.- Insp. Morrison reported more than 10,000 traffic -relate charges are laid in Pickering and Ajax on a yearly basis. He noted a local community complaint program generated in ex- cess of 500 reports about had drivers from area residents in 1999. The inspector also highlighted the department's five-year staffing plan, which could see the Durham ratio of officers to people improve from the current level of one cop for every 810 citizens to one for every 750. Insp. Morrison also introduced eight new constables who'll be work- ing out of the community police sta- tion at Hwy. 2 and Brock Road.

AM 9 M P PAGE ti NEWS ADVERTISER FRIDAY Et)iTION, February 25, 2000 NEWSEditori I &OPINIONS ADVERTISERFEB. 25, 2 0 0 0 EDITORIAL Police need you in crime fight Ajax and Pickering residents must give police the ammunition they need Police here have their worm cut out for them. And, they need the help of the public who they're sworn to serve and protect. Durham Regional Police Inspector John Morrison told Ajax and Pickering councils Monday the force has made fighting youth crime and reducing the number of serious traffic accidents in the area priorities for this year. Insp. Morrison reported some trou- bling news that, while violent crime has been dropping across the country. it's in- creasing here. Much of that increase, he said, can he attributed to the fact Ajax and Pickering have a large youth population, with 36SM .tudents in schools in the two communities and an untold number of teens who've dropped out. A lot of people are moving in and it's a more diverse community, a younger community;' said Insp. Slorn- son. ' A younger community means more crime " With that in mind, the police depart- ment will continue to post an officer in each of the seven high schools in Ajax and Pickering. Those so-called liaison officers aren't just in the high schools to become friendly with students; they're patrolling the halls to crack down on street gangs and youth crime. It's an ini- tiative Durham council has to continue to fund through the police force budget. Region politicians must also ensure there's enough money to meet the police department's five-year staffing plan which would reduce the ratio of officers to citizens in Durham from one cop for every 810 residents to one per 750 peo- pie, the provincial average. Staffing the Ajax -Pickering community police sta- tion with eight new, constables is a wel- come move in that direction.. Also welcome is a police force ini- tiative that will sex a dedicated team of officers sent to spots plagued by youth crime to nip the problem in the bud. And. the department also plans dedi- cated enforcement in areas troubled by speeders and motorists who run stop signs, as well as more RIDE checks and a Ncighbourtkxxl Traffic Watch. But, police can only do so much when it comes to tackling youth crime arks reckless driving. Each and everyone of us must play a part. We can teach our own chikimn right from wrong, respect for other people. their lives and property. we must watch our teenagers for signs they may be using drugs or getting into other trouble. We have to practise tough love when it's warranted. When it comes to careless driving. those of u% who are guilty of it ourselves must mend our ways, obey the spend limit, stop at red lights. And. it's incumbent on all of us to re- port crimes we witness. he it gang tight.% or violations of traffic laws. To turn our heads the other way and keep quiet about crime is to condone it.

BY JANE Mc DONALD Staff Writer According to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, anyone spending more than 30 per cent of their annual income on housing has a problem. To the families of the 11,000 children living in poverty in Durham Region, this fact comes as no surprise. The average rent for a one -bed- room apartment in Pickering in 1998 (the last year figures were available) was $806. The average monthly rental of a one -bedroom apartment in Oshawa two years ago was $636. So concerned is the Social Develop- ment Council of Ajax -Pickering that it is creating a task force dedicated to developing affordable permanent housing. "People end tip living with other family members or friends:' says Carla Rhody, project coordinator and co-author of the recently re- leased Community Wellness Study of Durharrn Region, Prepared by the social development council. "These are the invisible people in the hous- ing crisis who can't afford to stay where they're living if their vehicle breaks down or sometimes even for (the cost of) food. We hear that a lot.. As of Jan. 31, 2000, there were 4,459 Durham Region households on the waiting list for assisted hous- ing. Separate from seniors and dis- abled singles, 1,820 of those house- holds represent families with 4,452 cdrikiren. "I think the numbers are ultra conservative and that the problem is a lot worse than even the numbers reflect:" says Mr. Maurice Brenner, Durham Regional Council's child advocate. "Tire homelessness we are seeing in Durham Region is unparal- lelod and is greater than we've ever sear as it relates to children and the shortage of affordable housing. Peo- ple are not aware of the high per- centage of the population whose rent as greater than 30, 35 or 40 per cent. Gimme shelter Child poverty and the lack of affordable housing When that happens, money is taken away from children, from basics like food and clothing" Even if a child is lucky enough to belong to a two-parent family and his or her mother and father each have a job, if those jobs don't pay enough, finding affordable housing is often impossible. If, for example, those parents earn only the mini- mum wage of $6.85 per hour, the net annual combined income of the fam- ily will be $20,938.32. Thirty per- cent works out to be $6,251.50 a year or just over $520 per month the family can afford to spend on hous- ing, an amount that doesn't meet the rent required for the most inexpen- sive one bedroom apartment. "We're seeing an ever increas- ing need," confirms Michelle Ryp- stra, general manager of Durham Region Non -Profit Housing. "Given that the (assisted) housing program was cancelled by the provincial gov- ernment in 1995 and no new supply has been added since that time, the need is not being met." The provincial government re- cently gave social housing ac- countability to municipalities. Ms. Rypstra says "the property base" cannot afford the respon- sibility. Add in an end to rent controls and a low vacancy rate of 1.7 (meaning that for every 1,000 apartment units in the municipali- ty, 107 were va-.�_ cant and available immediately to rent), these is more pressure on the poor to try to meet their hous- ing needs. "It is an important issue:' admits John O'Toole, Durham MPP whose riding encompasses Clarington. Port Perry and part of Oshawa "All three levels (of government) have to par- ticipate." Mr. O'Toole suggests one ponsi- ble way for the provincial govern- ment to help is through a shelter al- lowance to parents with low income. paid along the lines of the social as- sistance funding model. "I think government should stay out of the building business:' con- tends Oshawa MP Ivan Grose. "Government is not good at business. We've been in (the housing business) and out and in and out ... it costs the government ` three times as much :.: per unit as the int private sec- tor. 44 M r . Grose YVI_ 4- agrees with his provincial counter- part, Mr. O'Toole, on helping low wage earners with children by subsi- dizing their rent_ "If a parent has three children and they need a three bedroom (unit), at least, and the approximate cost of housing is $9(X) per month but the family can only afford $W). then we subsidize the family with $300 per month:' explains Mr. Grose. "We would guide, direct, assist but stay out of (thc building) business:' Although social agencies anx- iously await the federal govern- ment's budget next week (Feb. 28) in hopes it will address issues like child poverty. Pickering councillor Mau- rice Brenner is not optimistic. "It is important for children that we do not automatically assume we're only talking about parents who are on welfare not being able to find affordable housing." says the; chiki advocate. "It's not. We in the Durham Region have an awful lot of working poor who am barely getting by. If there's an illness or an injury with medical bills for madica- �"r' tion. drugs. it's a balancing act for these people. "Who will take responsibility for the downloading of housing unless the federal government ties money to it and I can't see the government doing that:' continues Mr. Brenner. "I wish I could be more optimistic. The Federation of Canadian Munic- ipalities have passed a motion saying the lack of housing and homeless- ness is a national crisis. I hope the federal government would be able to show some leadership. No one wants to take the lead role and that's why people. some of them children, are falling through the cracks:' Constantly in search of more af- fordable housing, low wage earners move their families often. Each move has been estimated to diminish a child's chances of finishing high school by more than 2 per cent. "I think of a family we had last year:' says Mary Maclnnes, pnnci- pal of Holy Cross Catholic School in Oshawa. "They had a little boy in Grade 6. It was his 14th move. Since then, the family has moved three more times. It's tragic, tragic. "Another mother just dropped in to say hello:' adds Mrs. Madnnes. "Her children did well here but ( she ) had to look for a ( more affordable) house and the only one she could find was outside of our school arca ... One tired little boy told his teacher he didn't sleep well the night before because there were mice in his bed. ..This basic need — housing — is not being met:' affirms the pnncipal- Councillor Brenner also rates the frequent moves children of low wage earrners experiernc:e. '.These children have no sense of security, no sonic of tenure," he ex- plains. "No matter how hard we try to make a shelter warm and comfort- able, it i, not a home ... The Federa- tion of Canadian Municipalities moved a motion recently calling the Lack of housing and homelessness a national crisis. I hope the federal government would be able to show some leadership. No one wants to take the lead role and that's why people are falling through the cracks:' ............................................................................................................................................... .........

Research indicates babies who sleep on their hacks are less likely to succumb to SIDS. The child should sleep on a firm, flat surface with plenty of'airflow. Large or fluffy objects, such as stuffed animals, comforters, soft mattresses, plastic mat- tress wrappings and humper pads in a baby's crib may prevent proper air circula- tion near the child, and should be- removed.

The fund was estab- lished with money given in 1996 to the board for win- ning the Carl Bertelsmann prize from a German foun- dation. which compared school systems around the world in categories such as innovation, evolution and school leadership. The board received ap- proximately $250.(00 and the innovation fund sees about $10.000 yearly in in- terest from the prize com- bined with funds from other board departments to total roughly $1(X),000. The money will fund 12 elementary school projects, four at the secondary level, eight at the public school board headquarters and 20 group projects• each in- volving between two and 13 sch<xrls. "What I'm pleased to see are the group projects. - says board operations su- perintendent Norm Powers, who notes those initiatives receive special attention because they involve col- laboration among schools. This year's group pro- jects will see staff at Exeter and Dunbarton high schools provided tools to better assess and reach spe- cial -needs students; and three Grade 1 French im- mersion teachers given an opportunity to suggest how best to deliver the science and technology curriculum to pupils at R.H. Cornish and Uxbridge public schools. Mr. Powers reports ap- plications are sent every year to schools giving staff members an opportunity to pitch a project for consid- eration. When applications are returned to the board's headquarters, staff consider the submissions and decide which should be funded. "We don't very often Board's push to ban teen smoking in limbo A school trustee's request that the Province he asked to ban teen smoking may go up in smoke. Durham District School Board Pick- ering Trustee Paul Crawford suggested to colleagues last month they write Queen's Park to request the government make it illegal for people under 19 to smoke since legislation is already in place which bans the sale of tobacco products to youth% under 19. His letter was to have been revised for Monday's board meeting after trustees voted in January to establish a committee to look into the issue. When Trustee Crawford's unrevised letter ap- peared on this week's agenda, with a staff recommendation for deferral, he questioned the procedure that was fol- lowed. "I'm asking the committee to make a report on the letter," Trustee Crawford said. Whitby Trustee Elizabeth Roy said she and other committee members haven't had a chance to meet and asked that the matter be deferred to the March 6 standing committee meeting. "I don't know if we need to write a letter," Oshawa Trustee Kathleen Hop- per said. She described it as "beating a dead dog". Trustee Hopper doubted if a letter from the board would actually serve to discourage smoking by underage teens. Pickering Trustee Ruth Ann Schedlich suggested inviting Michael Perly, executive director of the Ontario Campaign for Action on Tobacco (OCAT), to the next standing committee meeting. • turn anyone down." says Mr. Powers. The completion of the N projects is celebrated each October with a display at the education centre.

Lawyer for the OPP and the special investigations unit had been set to square off next month in court over who should see the files, collected by the civilian agency in the Dec. 29, 1998, police shooting of Tony Romagnuolo at his Sunderland home, and later seized by the police. That hearing will now be delayed in- definitely while a mediator, a retired judge, listens to arguments from bath sides, a court was told Monday. In a brief filed with the court Mon- day, an adjournment was requested be- cause "there have been ongoing discus- sions... with a view to resolving this matter. The discussions have reached a Point where there is now a realistic prospect of settlement " Just a few months ago it appeared the two sides were not even clone to a settlement when Michael Code, a lawyer for the SIU, accused the OPP of fraud in obtaining the documents. Still unresolved, however, is a hid by 'The Toronto Star' to sec; some of the documents about the: shooting, 47 pages of material that was filed at a Brampton courthouse last year. Detectives with the OPP had seized the document.% from SIU headquarters four month% ago after taking out a search warrant during their investiga- tion into the shooting. OPP detectives had to file what is called an "infdxmation for an affidavit" with a justice of the peace to get the search warrant. Under the: Criminal Code of Canada, the public is entitled to see what justification tlx: detectives used to ask for their search warrant. But a request from a 'Star' rcpcxtLr for the 47 -page document was refused by officials at the Brampton courthouse, Durham non-profit groups get Trillium Foundation funds Durham agencies and organiza- tions will benefit from grants totalling $854,500 announced Monday by the Ontario Trillium Foundation.

The grants announced this week for Durham are part of the S 1,71 l ,200 awarded since July 1999 for the area encompassing Durham, Pine Ridge, Kawartha and Haliburton. Joyce Devonshire, chairman of the Trillium Foundation's grant review team, said, "We are impressed with the calibre of the work that charities and non-profit groups are accom- plishing" Among the recipients of grants here are the Durham Rowing Club, the Uxbridge Chamber Choir, CHOICES Childbirth Education and Labour Support Services, the Big Brothers Association of Oshawa - Whitby, Durham Children's Ground- water Institute, Durham Outlook for the Needy, Hospice Durham, Simcoe Hall Settlement House, and the Deo- haeko Support Network for adults with developmental disabilities. who said some of the information But with the OPP and the SIU tak- was under a court-ordered seal, ing their dispute to a mediator.

Sorry, we're not listening Durham MP tells Ontario ministers to take a hike A federal committee considering youth crime legislation is slamming the door on three Ontario cabinet ministers. The Standing Committer: on Justice and Human Rightshas denied a request by Attorney Ckneral Jim Flaherty. Min- ister of Correctional Services Rob Sampson and Solicitor General David Tsubouchi to express their views on the proposed Youth Criminal Justice Act. :says acting chairman of the committee Ivan Grose. Mr. Grose, who is Oshawa MP, says the committee is standing by its original decision to prevent all provincial politi- cians from speaking, despite a written pica sent to the committee last week. "We made the decision early on that no politicians would appear;” Mr. Grose says, adding youth justice is often used as a political tool by provincial politi- cians. '"lire reason is simply they use it to grandstand and it's really a waste of time.- But ime"But the ministers insist in the letter they have a duty to represent the con- cerns of their constituents and should be allowed to speak, noting politicians have appeared before the committee on other issues in the past. "Ibis federal committee will only hear from government officials and not elected officials," says Hal Vincent, communications adviser for Mr. Fla- herty, who also serves as Whitby -Ajax MPP. Provincial politicians "are elected to voice the concerns of their con- stituents and we're hearing a lot of con- cerns about the Young Offenders Act and it's successor, the Youth Criminal Justice Act" Committee hearings on the Youth Criminal Justice Act are winding up .shortly, says Mr. Grose. „NEWS ADVERTISER FfjtRAY EDITION, Fgibnufkry ?,5t, Z000 P1lCE prayers o14Board moves ahead on Inspirational readings to begin each day in the region's public schools will he in draft format by the end of March, reports Durham District School Board operations su- perintendent Norm Powers. He told trustees Monday a committee made up of com- munity organizations, school community councils, business groups and others has met four times and has "made a lot of progress". The passages are being classified and the completed document should be ready for the board by November and distributed to classes in De- cember. Last June the board passed two motions to approve in principle a spiritual encour- agement, in the form of a prayer, scriptural passage or positive thought for the day, and to establish a committee to develop a resource book. The draft document was to go back to the committee on Feb. 29, but Mr. Powers said the new target date is a month later. Oshawa Trustee Jane Weist TIT I asked if the period of consulta- tion, to take place this spring and summer, could be short- ened so that the document could be ready by the end of' October. She said she wanted it in place before a new group of trustees is chosen in the No- vember municipal election Mr. Powers said he would consider speeding up the final- ization process, but not the consultation period. He reported additional staff were hired especially to look into copyright issues.

School council roles decided by fall: Ecker Education Minister Janet Ecker hopes to have a ,:fear definition of school community council (SCC) roles and responsibilities in place by the fall. David Young, the Pick- c:ring-Ajax-Uxbridge MPP's parliamentary assis- tant, is currently touring the province to get input from parents and other stake- holders in education on how the councils, estab- lished in 1995, can best provide a means for parents to have input on how .drools arc run. A former school board trustee, Mr. Young is to meet with SCC chairmen from the Durham Catholic District School Board in Pickering Tuesday, Feb. 29. "W'e're not trying to reinvent the wheel here, be- cause there has been a lot of work done by the Educa- tion Improvement Commis- sion and the Ontario Parent Council," stresses MPP Ecker. "We're trying to en- sure that the feedback we had received is still valid before we make final deci- sions on the role of school councils" A clear outline of the role of SCCs should be completed by the end of this school year and in place when classes resume in Septembpr, she says. Mr. Young is t6 finish his tour early next month. MPP Ecker says "one of the key questions" is how to achieve the right balance between giving parents and other SCC members a way to contribute without putting too much unwanted responsibility on them. She reports there is "a split" be- tween parents who want to have more authority, such as over the hiring and firing of principals, and those who do not want to take a leadership or management role.

The question is "where to draw the line." She concedes her gov- ernment's failure to set out a clear definition of SCCs and their role may have hindered involvement in councils in the pact. On the other hand, the Province has the benefit of one year's worth of SCC expe- rience to draw upon, says MPP Ecker. Regardless of the final mandate given to SCCs, members have "a very important role" in the education system. MPP Ecker wouldn't comment on the Durham District School Board's recommendation that the Ontario Parent Council, which played a key role in establishing SCCs, be phased out. The public board is eyeing a regional council of SCC representa- tives. Fran Pereira, chairman of the Durham Catholic board, agrees it may be time to reconsider the need for the OPC. "I really have never put a great deal of faith in them because they weren't elect- ed by all of the parents," she says. Trustee Pereira notes OPC members have such huge areas and populations to represent it's not possi- ble for them to do an effec- tive job.

Councillor John Grav, who heads the operations committee. says he has asked for a full report and a tour of the animal services centre on Farewell Avenue for all committee members. He learned. just this month, of possible prob- lems at the centre. "It would be fair to say the op- erations of animal services hasn't been reviewed in recent years:' says Coun. Gray. "Your article has prompted that review." The article Coun. Gray refers to appeared last October in the Ncws Advertiser's sister paper. This Week. It revealed a number of is- sues surrounding the department's operations, including the fact there was not a record kept of the num- ber of animals which came into the publicly -funded shelter. At that time, Oshawa Clerk Brian Suter. who is responsible for animal services, said he would in- vestigate those issues and make changes as necessary. Last sum- mer, the clerk's department took over animal services from the parks and recreation department which had previously been re- sponsible for it. "We are not standing firm be- hind any single policy:' Mr. Suter told This Week at that tinw. "We want to examine what we do against what other agencies do and make sure we do the hest on be- half of the citizens of Oshawa and the animals we care fox" One significant change which has already taken place is the in- troduction of a new. more humane way to put down cats, says Mr. .Suter. Previously, cats in Oshawa were gassed with straight carbon monoxide which caused more dis- tress to the animals than neces- sary. Dr. William Holley, the lead veterinarian inspector for Ontario, says while legal, the gassing of cats in that manner is not as hu- mane as first sedating them with a carbon monoxide/oxygen mixture. Now, the more humane method has been put in place. (Dogs are euthanized by injection.) "Everything should be done properly now:' says a veterinarian who donated his services to assist animal services staff with the changeover to the new system. He asked to remain anonymous as he is not from Oshawa and does not wish -to step on any toes;' he says. "I don't think staff liked the way the animals were going down. I definitely think things are im- proving. They just needed to be shown what to do. It can be hu- mane. ' As well, Mr. Suter says about $62,000 will be added to the 2000 budget- to make improvements to physical components of the shel- ter, particularly in the areas the an- imals are confined. The money will come primarily from in- creased revenue anticipated from animal licences, he says. "We've made a number of in- roads in a short amount of time:' suggests Mr. Suter. "I don't think there was any doubt there were procedures that needed to be re- viewed:' But not all the issues are fully resolved. While Mr. Suter says records are now being kept of how many t f 1 imal services is the way others should try to do it:' says Mayor Diane Hamre, who credits the ani- mal advisory committee and a dedicated staff for putting Claring- ton "in the forefront" in animal services. One of Clarington's policies, Animal services department fast facts • In 1999, the Oshawa animal services budget was $328,000 with $198,000 of that money com- ing from the Oshawa tax base and another $130,000 from animal licensing revenues. • In the same year, there was no data available on how many animals were taken to the shelter, adopted out, put down or returned home. • In 2000, the proposed budget includes $390,000 with $205,000 coming from the tax Mase and an additional $185,000 in anticipated li- censing revenues. Some additional money is to be spent on improving the animal care areas of the shelter, says Oshawa Clerk Brian Suter. • The Clarington and Pickering -Ajax Whitby ani- mal services both have consulting vets who ex- amine the animals for health on a regular basis. Staff at those two shelters routinely provide boosters to animals coming in to help protect them against conxtton viruses which can be con- tagious, and if left untreated, deadly. Oshawa has no plans to hire a veterinarian on contract but will have animals seen individually for treatable & nesses, says Mr. Suter. In December 1999 Oshawa introduced a more humane method of euthanasia for cats than the previous gassing method. In October 1999 it was revealed the gassing method at that time was causing the cats distress. • In neighbouring Clarington, a proactive adoption policy is in place through local pet sup- In October of 1999, a full review of the de - ply stores including Pet Smart and Pet Valu. No partment was promised by Mr. Suter. This month, concrete adoption policy has yet been formed in Operations Committee Chairman John Gray has Oshawa. asked for a full report and a tour of the facility for the committee. which is also in effect at the Pick- ering -Ajax -Whitby (PAW) shelter, is the retention of a veterinarian on contract to make regular visits to the shelters. "The veterinarian checks every animal in the shelter once a week;" says Clarington's Deputy Clerk Marie Knight -Stanley. Because those shelters have consulting vets their staff have been given permis- sion from the College of Veterinar- ians of Ontario to give immunity boosters to all animals coming into the shelters and staff can ad- minister treatment prescribed by the vet. This helps the animals fend off respiratory illnesses which are very common to the cat popula- tion, very contagious and if left untreated, can be very serious, says Ms. Knight -Stanley. Mr. Suter says there are no plans to have a paid veterinary consultant in Oshawa or to have the staff provide treatment to the animals. Instead. he says, any ani- mal who is "easily treated" is seen by a veterinarian as required. When asked which vets are partic- ipating in this, he would only say, vets "around town" and was not more specific when pressed for names. When questioned on the practi- cality of having each animal with a minor illness treated individual- ly. Mr. Suter said he did not be- lieve there was a large call for this type of treatment. But, the vet who helped the centre improve its euthanasia method suggests otherwise. He says minor respiratory illnesses are very contagious and are "real- ly common for cats, especially those outdoors" Dr. Greg Topolie, a veterinarian with a practice in Oshawa and an- other in Clarington, says he is un- aware of any co-operative efforts between any Oshawa vets and the Oshawa animal services. Howev- er, he added, "Iite missing link in Oshawa is a veterinary consultant" who could address the minor ill- nesses and assist with euthanasia issues. Coun. Gray says he was un- aware of any possible problems within the department and, he says, he cannot answer any -point- ed questions" until he sees the re- port - "I've never received a call on this issue, ever. if you don't get calls raising concerns you don't normally meddle in the day -today (operations) of a service" Yet, Courtice resident Linda Hopley, who raised questions of how the animals were cared for at the shelter back in the fall, says she called Mayor Nancy Diamond on five occasions to apprise her of her concerns. "I left five messages for the mayor and either her secretary didn't pass them on or the mayor ignored them. I told them she could call me any time of the day or night:' says Mrs. Hopley. The mayor's executive assis- tant, Sharon Young, says she spoke to Mrs. Hopley and referred the matter to Mr. Suter. ..Ca �.p 41 `•9v � ? 4- .. t" ..: M'8 .� ..
