The purpose of the report
was to provide trustees
with information to
facilitate their upcoming
decision about the possible
implementation of Junior
Kindergarten in Durham
schools.
It included a strongly -
worded legal opinion by the
board's solicitors that
failure to comply with Bill
20, which would make im-
plementation of Junior
Kindergarten mandatory
for September 1994, could
result in serious repercus-
sions. The report also con-
tained information about
delivery of various models
and organizational options
for alternatives to Junior
Kindergarten in a
hypothetical Durham com-
munity.
Trustees requested that
clarification and additional
information about Junior
Kindergarten programs
and alternatives be
presented at the next
regular board meeting.

The Constitution: Part 2
by Bob Watson
Let's have a look at the rest of the Constitution changes.
Most of the whole document is devoted to giving Aboriginal
People more and more rights and government and there is
not much about Quebec'
In section 40 - "Aboriginal Peoples' Protection
Mechanism" there is just one sentence - "There should be a
general non -derogation clause to ensure that division of
powers amendments %rill not affect the rights of the
Aboriginal peoples and the jurisdictions and powers of
governments of Aboriginal peoples."
Then we come to a new section entitled: "R': First
Peoples" which is clarified by the following heading - "A.
The Inherent Right of Self Government."
The Inherent Right of Self -Government" continues
"The Constitution should be amended to recognize that the
Aboriginal peoples of Canada have the inherent right of
self-government within Canada. This right should be placed
in a new section of the Constitution Act. 1962, section 3.5.1
111".
Then we come to section 47 "Legal Transition and Con-
sistency of Laws" which says "A constitutional provision
should ensure that federal and provincial laws will continue
to apply until they are displaced by laws passed by govern-
ments of Aboriginal peoples pursuant to their authority."
Next is another section - "No. 592. Gender Equality... We
understood that female native people are complaining
about their rights but listen to this. "Section 35141 of the
Constitution Act. 1982, which guarantees existing
Aboriginal and treaty rights equally to male and female
persons should be retained. The issue of gender equality
should be on the agenda of the First '.Ministers' Conference
on Aboriginal Constitutional matters referred to under item
53...
Then to make sure that we Canadian taxpayers continue
to dish out billions of dollars - to which native peopes do not
contribute - we have "54: Section 911241.' which sans: "For
greater certainty. a new provision should be added to the
Constitution Act. 11167. to ensure that lection 91124, applies
to all Aboriginal peoples. "
"The new provision would not result in a reduction of ex-
isting expenditures by governments on Indians and Inuit or
alter the fiduciary and treaty obligations of the federal
government for Aboriginal peoples. This would be reflected
in a political accord."
The final section is " 60. Aboriginal Consent". which says
"There should be Aboriginal consent to future constitu-
tional amendments that directly refer to the Aboriginal
proples. Discussions air continuing on the mechanism by
which this consent would be expressed with a view to agree-
ing on a mecharusm prior to the introduction in Parliament
of formal resolutions amending the CmLmitutian -
Well, we have brought forward. we believe, the parts
which may not have the approval of the majonty of cana-
dianns
In our opinion this referendum should have been broken
down Into understandable sections For example. we could
have been asked
I Uo you agree with giving Aboriginal peoples the right to
self government and the existing annual federal and provin-
cial funding in the billions of dollars but still allow them to
continue the right not to pay income tares or sales taxes'
2. Do you agree In giving special privileges and power to the
province of (Juebec which won't be given to any other pro-
vinces"
3 Do you agree that any province should have more
representation per thousand citizens than any other pro-
vince In the House of Commons or the Senate-
4 Do you feel that the Senate should be abolished and
replaced by a committee of the provincial premiers - a
move designed to save millions of dollars"
A referendum on these questions would give our
representatives answers to specific questions. Of course, in
a previous Liberal government a large majority of citizens
wanted capital punishment brought back but the Commons
:MPs voted against that.
So we are going to vote "%o" on this ridiculous vote.

According to a study conducted by Ernst & Young. this is
exacth• what will happen if, as and when Ontario's propos-

The bill will give so much new power to the urnoras and the
Ontario Labour Relations Board that the long-term viabili-

ject. There are over 60 oranges to the existing act. We will
only comment on some of the more serious changes here.

Referendum -Unity??
There can be no Unity in Canada so long as thePeoples'
Representatives at all levels of Government or Authority
practice and preach Discrimination for or against any
ethnic group.
Equality means - Equality for all. Bilingualism must go'
Multi-culturalism must go' Affirmative action must go'
There should be no Special Legislation for any ethnic
group' New Canadians must be taught and encouraged in
every way to fend for themselves and become assimilated
into the Canadian Way of life as soon as possible and have
some pride and pleasure in saying I am a Canadian!! Not -
a hyphenated Canadian!
Unity - is one, one country, one people, and one language.

What is even more frightening is the proposed removal of

-Mortgage Credit Growth Rebounds In Second
Quarter
Residential mortgage credit increased by 1.6 percent in
the first quarter of 1992, and by an estimated "_.o percent
during the second quarter to $:K1.3 billion. according to a
report released by Canada Mortgage and Housing ( x pora-
tion.
The July issue of C:iH("s Mortgage Market Trends-
reports
rendsreports the first quarter increase of 1.6 percent followed
three quarters of growth slightly higher than 2 percent. The
slowdown reflected the combined effect of lower housing
starts and easing price trends, partly offset by a more ac-
tive resale market in the first quarter
The estimated increase in mortgage credit growth of 2
percent during the second quarter is due to a rebound in the
new housing market and further gains in the resale market.
The rise in immigration levels coupled with the
associated population and household growth• will lead to a
yearly increase in the number of houses required to be
built. CMHC projects that the average number of new
households formed each year will increase to 1915.700 for the
period 1991-96. This will help to boost housing requirements
to arnund '210.010 units annually over the next five years.

Bill Watt's Worlds
OPERA:
Opera lovers probably
and Librans certainly, will
appreciate the dichotomy
in the following comments
about the Canadian Opera
Company's presentation of
Rigoletto at The O'Keefe.
Visually it courts
ridicule. Though no doubt
with good intentions. the
set designs of George
Tsypin are of semi-
abstract plains and
transparancies that
marginally suggest the
vague boundaries between
good and evil but also con-
trast far too starkly with
the superb and accurate
costume design of Martin
Pakledinaz.
Structurally, they pre-
sent sight barriers and
sound baffles that not even
the talents of Director
Nicholas Muni can master.
though the lighting design
of James Ingalls is
dramatically perfect ... no
small accomplishment.
The costumes are mostly
black except for that of
Rigoletto who is clad all in
red -chess plavers on a
cruel board. it should work
except that the crippled
Rigoletto is chairbound.
What's wrong with that.
you say'. Well. he's not in a
wheel chair so much as a
wheeled chair. Painted read
(the jester almost fades in-
to it). it loom like nothing
more than an unfortunate
fusion of a castered office
chair with one of those
wagons used by super-
market butchers to
transport meat to the
counters. Oh. and there's
what appears to be a small
smoke stack attached.
presumably to alloy one's
metaphorical stack to
blow.
\ow. sublimate all of the
fore gouig and be advised
that it amounts to nothi:rtg
more than a beauty spot on
the face of a classic beauty
And. Meat a beauty is this
production'.
Brent Ellis has the title
role and handles it splen-
didly. Remember that
Rigoletto is a man embit-
tered, not ennobled by his
deformity and is not a plea -
sant person. Mr. Ellis por-
trays and sings him with a
truth that hurts. One feels
his physical and emotional
pain at what fate has allot-
ted him but still dislikes
him enough to wish him
tragedy though not of such
magnitude. All this, while
admiring his propellant
dexterity and thrilling to
his fine baritone voice.
His tragic daughter is
portrayed by Young Ok
Shin. Superlatives and ab-
solutes are always
dangerous but this scrib-
bler has never experienced
a finer Gilda. Her excellent
soprano is reminiscent of
Pons or even Schwart-
zkopf: her demeanour
evokes Sayao: her impact
upon the audience is one of
enthrallment. Her total
performance surpasses
mere excellence and goes
boldly into perfeciton. And.
she's beautiful as well.
Jorge Lopez-Yanez is the
priapetic Duke of Mantua.

LL L1Z�'_
It's Our Nature.
While hiking, I came
across a stream that
had several dead fish
in it. Is this due to
pollution or can this
happen naturally?
Extensive fish "die -offs" can
happen as a result of a variety of
reasons, either human -caused or
natural.
Natural fish die -offs can be
attributed to fluctuations in
water quality caused by pbe-
nomena such as extreme tem-
perature changes or oxygen
depletion or foul or muddy
water. Die -offs may be caused
by bacterial, viral and parasitic
epidemics or, in the case of spe-
cific species, may be related to
spawning.
Human -related causes are gen-
erally attributed to pollutants
such as heated effluents or toxic
chemicals.
Whether the cause is artificial
or natural, it's important to
report a die -off as quickly as
possible. Fish decompose rapid-
ly, and in order to determine the
problem, experts must examine
the dead fish immediately.
Therefore, if you see an abun-
dance of dead fish, report it as
quickly as you can to the nearest
