The centre will be the largest financing ever done by the town. However, the town has accumulated ade- quate capital financing to construct Phase 1 as pro- posed, Mayor Anderson says. Phase 11 could be con- structed without going into debt, but if it can't, con- shwtion may have to wait until 1985. A preen release issued from the mayor says that "ii we borrowed for Phase 1I, annual debt charges could probably rtn around SM.000 per year, and this could jeopardize the future financing of our entire long term Capital Works Pro- gram". According to Mayor Anderson, the year 1981 will see a physical start to the long awaited town cen- tre and he sees the evolu- tion of this project leading to the development of an identifiable core for the municipality which will knit together the many sub- divisionswhich presently form the fabric of the town. Mayor Anderson further says that "current indica- tions suggest that the town is entering a new era of ex- pansion and this growth is consistent with earlier pro- jections rojections and will accelerate the construction of major facilities in the early to mid eighties•„ The mayor also envisions a major recreation com- plex at the eastern end of the town centre with con- struction commencing in early 1982. Expanded library facilities as well as a new municipal coonplex are slated for the mid -eighties.

June 10, 1941 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Simplify Tax Rebates For Handicapped People The retail sales tax rebate for people who are permanently Ciysically disabled has been revised and simplified by the try of Revenue. Effective March 1, 1981, it is no longer necessary that a vehicle be specially adapted for use by a disabled person or that a person with a disability be unable to use public transportation. Margaret Birch, Provincial Secretary for Social Develop- ment, responsible for the co-ordination of activities in government ministries during International Year of Disabl- ed Persons, said, "It is especially gratifying to see these changes made which will make more people eligible for the rebate and thereby increase the mobility of Ontario's disabled people. "This is another announcement made by the Ontario government in support of its full endorsement of the Inter- national Year of Disabled Persons," Mrs. Birch pointed out. The program has also been changed so that a designated member of the family of the physically disabled person may obtain rebate. Religious, charitable or non-profit organizations are also eligible to claim rebates on vehicles purchased principally for the transportation of physically disabled people. The rebate must be claimed within three years after payment of the tax. Within approximately four weeks the rebate che- que will be mailed directly to the purchaser. Application forms and further information are available at the retail sales tax district office. $30.6 Million Contract The Hon. Herb Gray. Minister of Industry, Trade and Commerce, has announced that an initial contract for $310.6 million has been awarded to Litton Systems Canada Limited by Kaiser Electronics of San Jose, California. Mr. Gray said that the contract qualifies as an industrial benefit to Canada raider the terms of the federal govern- ment's agreement with McDonnell Douglas for the procure- meat rod remeat of 138 CF -18 aircraft for the Canadian Armed Foes. Kaiser Electronics is a major supplier to Hornet prime contractor McDonnell Douglas Corp. of St. Louis. McDon- nell Douglas said this contract could lead to the estabImb- ment of Litton Canada as a major second -source display producer for the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Carps. and other ozhet operators. `"This contract which will permit Canadian Forces to ob- tain a depot -level support capability in Canada is expected to result in hnuidreds of jobs in Canada over the nest 15 years." Mr. Gray said. Litton Canada will begin delivering the first of about 120 head -up display units and 274 multipurpose display units in February 1983. Head -up display and multipurpose display units are important parts of the Hornet's advanced cockpit, replacing many traditional gauges with television -like cathode ray tubes. Initial metal cutting for the firts CF -18 Hornet has begun at the McDonnell Aircraft Division plant in St. Louis, with the first CF -18 expected to be delivered to Canada in Oc- tober 1982. Deliveries are to continue through 1988. Litton Systems Canada is located in Rexdale, Ontario. The company recently turned over the first inertial navigation system to the U -S. Navy for the U.S. Cruise Missile Pro- gram. This project, with expected sales of over $1 billion over the program's 12 year period, was made possible by financial assistance provided by the Department of In- dustry. o-dustry.

Scarborough Objects To Markham Plan Markham Township Plans for an office park with a potential for 40,000 jobs has met with strong opposition from Scarborough Council. Markham has over 1000 acres of land earmarked for industrial and commer- cial uses at Steeles and Woodbine. Last Monday, Council ap- proved a motion to notify.

Scarborough did not ob- ject when these lands were originally zoned industrial. Now that Scarboroo h is worried about the commer- cial component, there may not be anything which can be done legally. Markham was granted permission by the Minister of Housing to adopt secon- dary plans without the need to obtain approval from the Ontario Municipal Board (O.M.B.) as long as the secondary plan conforms with the overall Markham Official Plan. Scarborough has to have OMB approval for changes to secondary The Markham Official Plan designates these lands as industrial, the secondary plan "industrial -commercial".

Markham feels that it is in keeping with its official plan. Scarborough, therefore, could not appeal to the OMB. However, Scarborough has a number of concerns: Scarborough's employ - anent centres such as the Town Centre would be undermined; Scarborough would be placed in "a very un -competitive position in obtaining its fair share of employment opportunities". Public transit services in the borough could be affected, and the development could create serial traffic pro- blems at Steeles, Warden, Pharmacy and Victoria Park in Scarborough. The deadline for voicing any objections was June 4. The matter is now in Markham's ballpark.

The central space was fill- ed with displays on insula- tion, the Rouge Valley System, the preservation of Ontario's foodlands and acid rain. The activities, organized by the Metro Toronto Branch of the United Na- tions Association, began with a presentation of a plaque by Mayor Gus Har- ris to Naida Creeggan, the founder of Scarborough East Recycling Project. Also recipient of an award was George Luste, organizer of Don River Days. On hand was Graham Scott. deputy Minister of the Environment, who spoke on the fight against acid rain. Referring to acid rain as "Canada's greatest en- vironmental challenge of the 1980's", Mr. Scott stressed the need for the United States to accept its share of the responsibility for our mutual pollution problems. The focus of World En- vironment Day was acid rain. A film entitled "Crisis in the Rain" showed some of the effects of acid rain on our lakes and fish life. In the afternoon, a sym- posium was held to discuss acid rain. Participating were Robert Slater, Direc- tor General of the Ontario Region of Environment Canada, E.W. Riche, Co- ordinator of Acid Precipitation in Ontario Study, Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Michael Perley, Director of Coali- tion on Acid Rain and Ross Howard, energy writer for the Toronto Star. Lois James of Save -the - Rouge and a member of the United Mations Associa- tion, received special recognition for her role in organizing the day's ac- :ivities. Gooderham Studies Snakes Students at Gooderham Junior Public School will find the answers to the many mysteries of the world of reptiles on Mon. June 15 at 9:30 a.m. as the school presents "Snakes Alive." The presentation will be given by well known reptile expert Jim Lovisek, who works in association with the Royal Ontario Museum. Snakes Alive will be a hands-on presentation where students will be able to investigate close-up and handle a "very large" Boa Constrictor, a predatory frog the size of a dinner plate and assorted other reptiles, lizards, turtles and snakes. "Students are often taught by adults that snakes and reptiles are replusive," said Gooderharn Principal Wesley Warden. "But they are very beautiful in their own way and are very im- portant to our environ- ment. We want the children to learn what they mean to us." Wed.

June 10, 1081 THE POST Pae 8 Windsurf inOntario's Newest WaterSport by Suzanne Steal This summer Pickering children will have their first opportunity to ex- perience the excitement of windsurfing, Ontario's newest water sport, at Camp Sportica. The Town of Pickering Parks and Recreation Department has hired qualified instructors to teach children basic wind- surfing techniques in the safe enclosed area of the Petticoat Creek Conserva- tion Area Pool. "A great deal of emphasis will be placed on water safety," says Fred Scholl, Sports Supervisor, "while teadWng children how to operate the sail and the correct standing position." As well as windsurfing, campers will enjoy spen- ding a day at Swans Marina in Pickering par- ticipating in a sailing seminar. Children will be taught safety on a sailboat and proper techniques. A half day outing is plann- ed for children to go sailing and apply their newly learned skills. Although water sports may highlight the activities they do not infringe on the enjoyment the children receive by parbeipting in other sports such as tennis, archery, lacrosse, floor hockey and track and field. All participants will have the opportunity to compete in competitions, games and tournaments that are held at the end of each day at camp to test campers skills. The fust day of each ses- sion children will be divid- ed into eight groups or teams who will compete against each other for the two week session. At the end of each session ribbons and prizes will be awarded to the champion of each ac - Origin Destination Survey The Ministry of Transpor- tation and Communica- tions will be conducting Origin -Destination Surveys in the Oshawa area during the month of June, 1981. The survey sites will be located on lfighway 401 through Oshawa. 7be data obtained &om the surreys will be used to assist in the Planning of transportation improvements within the Oshawa area. Ministry staff will be located at several sites along Highway 401, and will record licence plate numbers of Ontario registered automobiles, us- ing the facility. The licence numbers will be matched to vehicle registrations, and a ques- bonnaire will be mailed to the owners. The questionnaires, which ask several short mws tions, are to be mailed beck to the ministry in the ac- companying stamped, ad- dressed esveiope. 'Ibis process allows data to be collected without the inconvenience to the motorist from may. The co-operation of the travelling public in this survey will be appreciated. t Town of Pickering tivity in the "finals". Already almost 200 Pickering children bet- ween the ages of six and 14 have registered in Camp Sportica which begins June 29. Campers will be divided into Junior and Senior groups but Scholl says that this is only to accomodate different skill levels. Both groups will be involved in several common activities. The most important aim of Camp Sportica is for children to have fun, while developing basic leader- ship and participation skills. "I want the children's summer at Camp Sportica to be a memorable and a pleasant one," Scholl says. Camp activities will be divided between Dunbar - ton thigh School and the 284-1171 6075 Kingston Rd.

June 10, 1061 Just Around The Corner By Gordon Ashberry RETIREMENT Well, I have completed my fust week of my retire- ment from the telephone company. So far it has been going well except 'that I have been so busy that to date I have only logged one hour in the "Chaise Lounge" When the Social Club presented this piece of garden furniture to me, they hoped that I would en- joy many happy hours relaxing in the garden. And I do too. But when do I start. So far there has just been too much to do. There were the lawns to cut, the sod -turning for the new library at Scarborough College, the John Crosbie Dinner, the Operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan, recor- ding a narration for a train- ing film, a shopping trip to find a matching chaise lounge so that I can get a turn at mine and a couple of other things that have slipped my memory. If this keeps up I will be forced to take a vacation from my retirement. But to tell you about the musical: A TOUCH OF CLASS The presentation of the Gilbert and Sullivan Operetta, 'IOLANTHE' by the Metropolitan Music Theatre was a musical and visual success. It is definitely their best show to date and gives them a definite place in musical theatre. It is hard to believe that it is only two years since I saw them put on 'Oklahoma'. At the time I said that although the show was a bit rocky and the or- chestra somewhat over- powering, the group show- ed great promise. It was evident that there was an abundance of talent and that only experience was needed to make MMT a truly highly proficient gip. Margaret Alderton had the dream. She knew what she wanted and she set about to get it. She was fortunate that she had a mother and dad who shared her excitement and suported her efforts. Then she had many good friends, who like herself are in- terested in musical theatre. By her own efforts and with the help and advice of her friends she has formed the Metropolitan Music Theatre which if handled wisely will become a major performing group in On- tario. The production last week at Castle Frank High School Theatre was well directed and excellently staged. The scenery was a combination of sets, cur- tains and lighting which gave the 'Arcadian land- scape' an ethereal quality that was in keeping with the lifestyle of the in- habitants. They were Fairies you know. The story is about a fairy named Iolanthe who has been banished from the glen for falling in live with a mortal. Eventually the Fairy Queen relents and she is snowed to return. During the 25 years that she has been forced to live by a riverbank under a stone bridge, her son, Strephon, has grown up, become a shepherd and has fallen in love with a ward of the chancery. Strephon has many pro- blems. He is half a fairy. Mortal from the waist down and a fairy from the waist up. Ponder that for a while and consider that men die but fairies never grow old much less suc- umb. G&S had a lot of fun A i th the possibilities. His fiance, Phyllis, must French Immersion Kindergarten To Be Offered In September, 1981 It is still not too late to register your youngster for French Immersion Senior Kindergarten for September, 1981, at the following five schools: William Tredway Junior Public School 112 Sedgemount Drive, Scarborough William G.

'call O40 SCARBOROUGH a BOARD OR EDUCATIOA ' � A COMMUMty Palter obtain permission from The Lord Chancellor to marry Strephon. It does not appear that this permission Will be forthcoming until Iolanthe reveals that the Lord Chancellor is really Strephon's father. Suffice it to say that everyone, including all the members of the House of Lords and all the Fairies live happily ever after. While the music has the usual G&S touch, I felt that Arthur Sullivan took a more serious tone and that the music had the sense of his choral and religious works. The 25 piece orchestra was always under the con- trol of the conductor and accompanied the singers with a pleasant and bright tone. We recognized some of the players and knew that Margaret had talent in the pit. On stage I enjoyed John Pepper as the Lord Chancellor. I am partial to the patter ditties and he handled them superbly. You could understand the lyrics, which to me is the clue. Yvonne Bac hem, who was Aunt Eller in Oklahoma, was an entirely different person as The Queen of the Fairies. She has a beautiful contralto voice that is full and rich. Being tall and with a regal mien she sang and looked like a Queen. Daniel Neff was a believably bewildered Strephoo who played the part with a particular sen- sitivity. Cynthis Eyre was a very beautiful and delightful 'Phyllis'. William Bates and Daniel Godin, as Earls who were most interested in being chosen by the Chancellor, were both very haughty and properly Earlish. Their singing voices were much superior to tbei terpsichorian skill. But they did hold the rases deft- ly- Robert Mason had the most ingenious and am- biguous part in the whole thing. He carried it off with all the aplomb and characteristic aloofness of a real Grenadier Guard. I am still at a loss to know why a sentry would be posted at a sylvan glen. But that is showbiz. The direction by Guiller- mo Silva -Martin showed a firm hand and stage knowledge. The movements on-stage were smooth and the acting was on a par with the singing. I was particularly impress- ed by the diction and clari- ty of their lines. All in all a fine perfor- mance and we can look for- ward to even better shows .in the future. CONGRATS AGAIN Did you know that the only one -act theatre Festival in Ontario is held in Oakville? Neither did I. But it is and it was held on May 29th. And the nice part is that one of our favorite people, Kathy Burgess, was nominated and won one of the two awards presented for Best Female Perfor- Theatre Five WWowdale entered with SORRY, WRONG NUMBER directed by another nice person, Ginny Evans. This is another victory for the community theatre groups in our publishing area. We are so proud to be associated with such talented and dedwted peo- ple- THE SEA CALLS Early in the year we plan- ned a vacation to New- foundland and St. Pierre and Miquelon. Then last W eek I attended the dimmer for John Crosbie whose Newfoundland heritage is evident in his speech and wit. So it appears that I must now include a visit to Albert Campbell Library, Birchmount and Danforth Rds., to view a photographic Apley. It features the work of John de Visser who has on exhibition 37 colour and black and white Owtograph s; with text all concerning the forbidding and mysterious island of Newfoundland. The showing continues un- til the end of June. FUTURE STUFF If you are a calendar marker then here are some dates that you might like to note: Dick Dean has picked a universal favourite for the next presentation by the Scarborough Choral Socie- ty. It will be the Meredith Willson classic, "THE MUSIC MAN" and will open at Cedarbrae Col- legiate next March 5, 6 and 7th. The Scarborough Philhar- monic have set its dates for the '81-'82 season. They are Jan. 12, March 6 and April 17th. And Phil tells me that seasons tickets are being ;gobbled up fast. In light of last year's success it might be wise to contact their of- fice now. Who says that we don't keep you up-to-date. AU REVOIR This will be our final regular column until September. I intend to spend some time in that padded chaise lounge. However, should anything special come to notice I will let you know. In the meantime, remember the Sunday Con- certs at the Scarborough Civic Centre, the July First Parade, the Indianapolis - Scarborough Peace Games, the Handicapped Olympcs, the Robbie Tour- naments and the other events coming up. And do not forget to visit our beautiful parks and just relax and enjoy. Have a pleasant and en- joyable summer.

June 10, IM THE NEWSJPOST Papa Bordeaux Restaurant by Gay Abbots The Bordeaux Restaurant at 16 Bimbrok (Eglinton and Brimley) was recently granted an Adult Entertainment Licence by Metro Licensing Commission. This, in itself, is not great news, but the fact that the restaurant is on a residential street and that local citizens have been at war with the Bordeaux since 1977 renders it noteworthy. There is also a lesson to be learned because the story of the Bordeaux gives impetus to the very real need for our plan- ners and politicians to exercise tighter control over zoning and secondary plans. Unfortunately, it is probably too late for the residents on Bimbrok; hopefully it is not too late to lxevent a similar situation in other ne�hbourinoods. The history of this case is a curious in of events trig - by one initial mistake which has effectively tied both residents' and council's arms in their attempts to close the restaurant. The initial mistake was the zoning of the premises as "highway commercial", a designation permit- ting restaurant uses. why a piece of property, on a street zoned "Single family residential" was zoned "highway „ no on appears to know. The problems started in 1977 when an application for renovations to the basement to permit a disco was granted by the borough's building department without anyone visiting the property. This was the second big mistake, since an on-site inspection, a required procedure, would have revealed two flagrant by-law violations: the building coverage was 6,432 sq. ft. when only 4,900 sq. ft. was permit- Porter ***' ted and there were insufficient parking spaces. Subsequent events, which closely resemble a comedy of errors, compounded the situation. Despite citizen protest and documentation of on -street parking by patrons, ex- cessive noise, rowdiness and the use of Bimbrok as a "drag strip", a liquor licence was granted by the Liquor Licence Board of Ontario (LLBO) in 1977 and renewed in 1978. At the liquor licence review in 1979, an 8 p.m. curfew on the sale of liquor was enforced as a result of discrepancies in the books of the restaurant. An audit showed far greater sales revenues from the sale of liquor than from food. The op- posite is required by law. The Bordeaux appealed the curfew but the decision was upheld. Both the residents and Scarborough Council appealed unsuccessfully the renewal of the liquor licence. In November, 1979, the Bordeaux lost its restaurant licence but it was quickly re -instated on an appeal to the Supreme Court. In April, 1980, its liquor licence was suspended by the LLBO after police testimony of liquor licence violations: patrons bringing their own beer onto the premises, serving liquor to minors and operating on Sun- day. The Bordeaux appealed to the liquor Licence Tribunal but the thirty day suspension held. Scarborough Council, the borough solicitor and the borough clerk all supported the residents but since the 'Bordeaux was operating within the uses permitted by "highway commercial" zoning, there was not a great deal which could be done. In 1979, Council passed a motion to *P * * * * * * * * amend the Eglinton Community By-law to restrict restaurant uses at 16 Bimbrok solely to the serving of food, thereby prohibiting liquor. Scarborough took the amend- ment application to the OMB for approval but was informed that the OMB had no jurisdiction to hear the application. Scarborough then went to the provincial Cabinet only to be told again that the Cabinet had no jurisdiction to hear such an appeal. While all this was gong on, the Bordeaux switched to adult entertainment with the female strippers performing com- pletely nude. In 1990, the Metropolitan Licencing Commis- sion forced the restaurant to apply for an Adult Entertain- ment Parlour Owner -Operator licence which was granted last month. This licence requires the owners to pay $3,300 per year and each dancer $55 per year. The strippers are now prohibited from removing their G-strings. The fight against the Bordeaux is not over yet. In September, its liquor licence comes up for renewal and the residents can once again attempt to stop the restaurant. The residents would like the premises re -zoned but this can only happen if the owner applies for a re -zoning. Consider- ing past history, this would not appear likely. Scarborough in the last few years, has been faced with a number of local family -type restaurants applying for liquor licences. Scarborough Council has adopted a policy of generally not supporting, at the LLBO, any application for goon licence by a restaurant where there is opposition voted by abutting residential communities.

Ontario Riding Government is often terribly inefficient and careless in its operations but occasionally it can be ruthlessly efficient. Inevitably this hardworking tendency shows up in the tax collecting aspects of government. A case in point is the plight of one of my constituents, handicapped by polio since childhood. Mike ( use a wheelchair but he chooses to suffer somedisctimfort for the increased mobility of a leg brace. The goods and services required because of his han- dicap cost him about $1,800 a year - a sum which the govern- ment w ouM allow him to deduct from his income tax if he used a wheelchair or if he chose to plead that his handicap keeps him from earning a living. But, since he came to Canada 17 years ago, Mr- Overdyk has been working hard despite his paralized left leg. The tax department las prn:sheed his wages to collect deduuc- bow which Mr. Ovedyt made four years ago. This situation is clearly unfair. Had he chosen the wheelchair route. the tax department would have had no revenue at all to collect from him. 1 asked the Minister of National Revenue to review Mr. Overdyk's case after a tax appeal board turned down his appeal. I was politely told that nothing could be done but that maybe the law would be changed next autumn. Where does that leave Mr. Overdyk and all the other disabled peo- like in similar positions' Between a rock and a hard place, mostly. But there was one result from Mr. Ove dyk's appeal. The Special Parliamentary Committee on the Disabled and the Handicapped intends to reconvene with the specific pur- pose of pressuring the government on this issue. The tax collectors must be directed to show less revenue -hungry zeal and more compassion to the disabled of this country. Emergency Disaster Excercise At Centre The Vialage C lValley Farm Retit snort Road, wall be the scene of an Emergency Disaster ex- ercise to be carried out by the Ajax -Pickering Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society on Wed. June 17. The Emergency Services Committee, under the guidance of Mr. Carvalho, Chairman, and Mrs. Angela Sweet, Team Cap- tain, will register the residents of the Home and with the assistance of the Pickering Radio Club, set up an enquiry facility.

Student Wins Top Design Award When the director yells "lights up" at West Hill Collegiate's next theatrical production, chances are pretty good that student Peter Blair will be sitting in the audience waiting to execute the cue. Peter's invention of a remote controlled stage lighting system recently earned him the prim in the 9th Annual grade 3 Des1'gu Competition spon- sored by the Scarborough Board of Education. The Grade 13 Design Technology student has created a switcher which transmits signals to a dim- mer switch backstage. The portable system will eliminate the need for din- ning back and forth when adjusting lighting during dress rehearsals for school Flaorte' his design, complete with a working prototype, Peter receives the top prize of $65.

Thomas Quinn, Dirctor of Parks and Recreation, says that this funding will improve the existing pro- grams as well as develop new areas which the aepartanent had previously been incapable of financ- ing. "It (the grant) will also enable the department to relieve the municipality of same of the burden," Quinn sand, "and provide citizens with a quality service at less expense.11 This summer Parks and Recreation will com- puterize the registration procedures which, Quinn said, will enable registra- tions to be processed with greater efficiency and less time and expense. 'Mie past few years the volume of participants has become incredible .. it is impossible to register everyone manually," Quinn says. A long awaited policy and procedures manual will be completed this summer providing existing and new stag with an in-house docu- ment at their fingertips. A student has also been employed to assist in the publicity and promotion of the Department. In all, 26 students from the area were employed on the program which proposes to "contribute to the develop- ment of initiative, respon- sibility, work habits and skills of project ernployees, I according to the Summer 'sl application manual. Every new program in- stigated this summer has been specifically developed to instill wont habits and skills which will prepare students for continuing labour market participa- tion. Also, to qualify for the grant, the Parks and Recreation Department needed to develop projects which would be of lasting benefit to the community. To work on the construc- tion and maintenance of the new Pickering Museum five students have been hired. Main objective of the museum program is to im- prove the overall ap- pearance and accessibility of the museum site. F' (teen counsellor posi- tions were filled by Conservation Latbey Prize Winner A.

As part of a separate pro- gram, the Government of Ontario's Experience 181, $1,200 was granted towards the employment of three students to work in the Pickering Aerials Gym- nastic Camp. The Town of Pickering is developing at a great rate, says Quinn, and the Parks and Recreation Depart- ment is planning for its future. Report From Queen's Park By George Ashe M.P.P. The Minister of TYansportabw and Commmun katiom has recently introduced new regulabons, under the Ontario Highway Traffic Act, which will make our thoroughfares safer for motorists and pedestrians alike. Despite measures such as the mandatory use of seat belts and krwered speed limits, many umocent people are being seriously injured or killed as a result of the irresponsible and dangerous actions of some drivers. A number of offenders are young drivers, and it is to curb their tendency to recklessness that our Government, through the Ministry of T ansportabon and Commwuca- tions, has introduced a two-year, probationary status for new drivers. We have also redefined the demerit point system to deter reckless drivers of all ages. These changes, which took effect on June 1, were recom- mended after considerable study, by the Select Committee on Highway Safety. The committee noted that too many of our new drivers appeared to be demonstrating a lack of respect for the traffic laws of this province, resulting in a disproportionately high rate of collisions and convictions. Under the pobabonary status, a new driver's license will be automatically suspended for 30 days with the accumula- tion of six demerit points within either the fust or second year of their probationary period - To refresh your memory on the demerit system, six demerit points are given for a careless driving or racing conviction or for exceeding the speed limit by 50 or more kilornetres per hour. Exceeding the speed limit by 16 to 29 kilometres per hour results in three demerit points, so that two such speeding caevictions within a year would also br- ing about an automatic license suspension. Although a probationary driver's demerit points will be reduced to zero when thaw lucerne is suspended, they will have to complete two, ane -year driving periods free of suspension for traffic vitiations, before the probationary status is removed. It should be noted that pobabonary status applies to every new driver, regardless of age, including anyone who has not held an Ontario Driver's License within the prevmn three years. It will also automatically exchde new drivers from holding either a school bus driver's license or a driving instructor's license. As far as non -probationary drivers are concerned, they will still be permitted to accumulate 15 demerit points before their licenses, am aautomatically suspended. Dern it points will continue to be effective for two years as well, bort now they will be assessed back to the date of the offence rather than the date of the conviction as was the case previously.
