Watson TELEPHONE 284-1767 Opinion Township Airport Brief This brief was presented to the Airport Expropriation Hearings on Thurs. Dec. 7th by Councillor Jack Anderson representing Pickering Township Council. Mr. Swackhammer. Ladies and Gentlemen. On behalf of the Pickering Township Council. I am making an objection to the expropriation of lands for the proposed Airport in Pickering Township. On these several points I wish to object. t. No compensation is being paid by the Government to the Township. for the Township -owned roads. as indicated on Page 6 of the Intent to Expropriate• last paragraph. 1 We object to the Expropriation on the grounds that no consideration has been given to the uncompensated residents in the noise zones. such as Greenwood and Claremont. 3 We object to the site of this Airport• when the experts stated the expansion of Halton was the least costly way to go. 3 We object to the Implementation of the Airport with complete disregard to the Township Council and the people affected. We also object to the land freeze imposed by the Govern- ment in the surrounding area, as it has imposed great hard- ships upon the people and the Township as a whole. And it is contrary to the '.Municipal Act. Response To Change If you haven't read your copy of "Response to Change•" an information guide for parents outlining the facts and philosophy of Ontario's new Credit System in secondary schools you would be wise to do so - and study it wed. especially if you're puzzled about the "Credit System". Part of the booklet states: "The Credit Systems recognized - finally - that each student is a distinct individual. Each student's abilities• interests. and future plans are different. and no longer will students be treated as if they were the same. Traditionally. the secondary school curriculum has been handed down from on high. the provincial Ministry of Education has dictated many of the subjects that students must take. The assumption was. presumably, that there were experts who knew what was best for each student for his future. But in these fast -changing times, this is a false assumption. It is not possible for the Ministry of Education to specify a list of subjects that will answer the needs of each and every student in the province. The best -qualified experts on any student's abilities and future plans - and the school requirements to fulfil them - are his parents. his teachers, and he himself. The Credit system recognizes this. It is a response to change. It is neither a sudden change in thinking nor an experiment: it is a logical extension of the schools' continual efforts to adapt to new needs created by a fast -changing society. The details of the Credit System have been in the planning for five years, and the new program has been gradually introduced across Ontario over the past three years. Last year. about 80 per cent of Ontario's high schools were following it, and this fall the remaining schools were. The "fundamental" subjects are still being taught in elementary schools. Secondary schools now consider their primary objective is to give students the skills and attitudes necessary to allow them to learn throughout their lives. In a world dominated by electronic communications and the pocket calculator. traditional ideas about "fundamental" knowledge and skills may no longer be applicable." Another positive fact about the Credit System is this ob- servation - "many of the disciplinary problems that have occupied the time of school officials are disappearing. When a student and his parents select the program that is best suited to that student - and are committed to it by their own choice rather than by a higher authority - there is much less reason for rebellion or sullen resistence." Thomas L Hells. Minister of Education. Ontario has done his homework and has let us in on his results and future plans for our students Read "Response to Change" and see if you don't agree. 0 Iii �!►� � . �. � =` GM TESTS EXPERIMF- %T a: I TERRENT TO ALCOHOL AV, DRIVERS This 10 -second test to pre%er• alcohol or drug -impaired drier '- - being experimentally evaluated ' the General Motors Engineering �,a! : The steering wheel controls a needle on a dial in the instrument panel When the ignition is turned on, the needle starts to fluctuate. The objective is to steer well enough to keep the needle in the shaded center area, allowing the driver to start the engine.

He has two more chances to pass the test. He pushes the "reset" button (bottom kft) and the needle is again actuated.

No Place For Snowmobiles A railway right-of-way is no place for snowmobiles, warns J.W. Deck, superintendent CN police. "Because of the noise a snowmobile makes and because most drivers wear well -insulated helmets, it is almost im- possible to hear an approaching train, even when its whistle is blowing." he says. Last year, several people were subsequently prosecuted. Fines ranged from S5 to $too, depending on the cir- cumstances. The amended Railway Act clearly stipulates that the practice is illegal. Section 359 states: "Every person who, without authority therefore from the company, operates a vehicle upon the yard or right-of-way of the company, except where same is laid across or along a highway. is liable on summary conviction to a penalty not Prceeding $10) - Mr. Deck says CN intends to maintain strict surveillance of its tracks again this year and will continue to apprehend and prosecute snomobders who travel across tracks or along its right-of-way Despite warnings and a surveillance program last year. at least three people were killed when their snowmobiles were struck by trains. Several more were injured. This winter, CN will continue its efforts to educate snow'mobilers, and the company is distributing safety posters to the news media, police departments and snowmobile groups across the country. Members of CN police also visit interested community groups• as part of the program to inform people about current laws which prohibit driving a snowmobile on railway property and of the dangers involved. Help Maintain Environment Following established Ministry of Environment policy, the co-operation of ice fishermen and snowmobilers will be encouraged this winter in a publicicity program covering all aspects oI, wintertime activities on the porvince's lakes and watercourses. Regulations covering temporary shelters are now being developed by the Ontario Government. While licensing of these shelters under the new regulations will not be required until the winter of 1973/74. the Ministry of the Environment, in co-operation with the Ministry of Natural Resources will launch an intensive inspection program during the coming winter. This program is rntendt i to ensure that waste materials generated by activities on frozen lakes and rivers are adequately collected and deposited at appropriate land- based disposal sites, and, temporary shelters are removed from the ice in sufficient time before the spring break-up. With a concentrated program of education and information, it's expected these efforts will result in a marked im- provement in the disposal of these winter sports -generated wastes. Last winter's garbage may have been washed ashore this past summer. It's an irresponsible act to leave trash and body wastes, etc. on the ice. Think about it. { k A Christmas Concert by Pat Rtxss The May Ridges !Montessori School started their Christmas activites tot Sat Dec. I6th with a concert given by the children for their parents. Items included in the program were dances, songs and mimes. Solo performances were given by Asta Abraham on the piano and Corrine Rudling who gave a baton twirling demonstration. The Finale was a Nativity Play in which all the children took part. after the concert. parents left leaving their children to enjoy a Christmas Party at which Santa Claus ( Doug Stewart, paid them a visit.

Most of the in the Municipal Park. opposition expressed at the In handing down the hearings dealt with the decision last week, Mr. inadequacies and drawbacks Jamieson, vice-chairman of of the 4 3/8 acre park site. the board, said he didn't believe a really accurate estimate of the cost of the proposal had been reached. He cited storm sewers and pavement improvement in the area as examples where more expenses could be incurred. The Council's estimated cost for the arena, or sports complex, was $282.000 of which $207.000 was to be raised by debenture (8 1/2 per cent for 10 years.) The amount of available grant money was also un- certain, Mr. Jamieson said in his written report. The Council, in its ap- plication, mentioned a federal LIP grant as an expected additional source of money for the arena construction, as well as the impost fund.

Ontario South Twenty -Ninth Parliament. Second Session November 21 to December 15, 1972 Legislative Highlights URBAN TRANSPORTATION POLICY In late November, Mr. Davis announced what may well become the most important single achievement of the present government. Hailed by municipal leaders and editorial writers alike as "breathtaking" and "imaginative", the policy can make Ontario a world leader in integrated transportation planning. The new transportation system will combine fast, silent pollution -free vehicles with other transportation modes to provide an attractive alternative to high-rise, high-density living and suburban sprawl. Through a combination of planning, development and subsidy it en- visions a "people first" transportation system which will permit orderly development, improve the quality of urban life and conserve our land resources at reasonable cost to the taxpayers. EDUCATION The Ministry of Education will not approve new school construction until it has been shown that the need for new accommodation exists and is not available from another school board in the same geographic area. This policy adopts the recommendation of the Committee on the Costs of Education and is aimed at avoiding waste and duplication in school facilities by ensuring that the public and separate school boards consult each other on a regular basis regarding enrolment matters and available accommodation. The Ministry of Colleges and Universities announced a deceleration in the (low of capital support to post -secondary institutions. Essentially• building projects will be limited to those already under construction. This pause will provide the Government and the institutions with an opportunity to study current enrolment trends and to examine existing in- ventories of space. HEALTH The major thrust of the Ministry is directed to a change away from a hospital -oriented society. This has produced a new emphasis on such things as extended care service. home care. nursing homes• chronic care and self-care units. This was given further impetus by the limitation of capital funds for active treatment hospitals and the elimination or amalgamation of duplicated obtetrical facilities. The determination to control costs in the interest of taxpayers is evident in the proposal to restrain increased operating h dgets to 5% of 1972 costs. Legislation was enacted to create a new profession of denture therapists for the taking of impressions for. fitting arwt making rrrrwwahW dentures ECONOMIC NATIONALISM Amendments to The Business Corporations Act which were introduced in the spring, received third reading in Decem- her. This Act requires that a majority of the directors of Ontario incorporated companies must be resident Canadians and set out January t• 1975 as the date by which all com- panies must comply. WINTER WORKS PROGRAM The Treasurer unveiled a $50 million winter works program designed to provide 29.000 temporary jobs during the peak unemployment months. Because of its proven success last year, the winter spending is concentrated on the Municipal Employment Incentive Program which provided 100% grants to local governments for hiring temporary workers who would otherwise be receiving welfare or unemployment insurance payments. BOOST IN SOCIAL ASSISTANCE PAYMENTS Increases in allowances under the Family Benefits Program, effective January 1, 1973, were announced which will result in an additional expenditure of $16 million in the first full year. Approximately 82,000 Ontario residents benefit from the program and the current adjustments are varied to ensure that those who are most affected by the rising costs of living will receive the greatest revision. DISCLOSURE OF POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS In a statement to the legislature in December, the Premier announced that legislation would be presented in the near future to provide for disclosure of political donations. In addition to this commitment. many other aspects of this question will be referred to the Ontario Commission on the Legislature. Mr. Davis' purpose in which the various political parties can function and campaign for public sup- port freely and openly and... in an atmosphere above and beyond public doubt, suspicion of cynicism."

Councillor for Ward 5 Pickering Township Pickering Township Council met on Tuesday evening and nay have decided then to hold a plebiscite in the West Rouge regarding the exclusion of this part of the township f rom the proposed new regional government set-up east of Metro. In any event, the people of West Rouge must be given the opportunity to express a personal chace - for the West Rouge to become part of Ward 9 of Scarborough ( and therefore w ithin Metro Toronto r or not. Since this column is written on a Tuesday n x -r ing I cannot guess at possible council action Tuesday evening Here are the facts as 1 see them at this time concerning regional government and west Rouge: I The government proposed to put West Rouge into Scar- borough Pickering Council is on record as supporting a decision taken at a mass meeting of residents under the auspices of the West Rouge Ratepayers Association some two vears ago. that if the whole of Pickering were not included in an ex - !ended Metro Toronto• then the West Rouge would like to be cut off from Pickering and ceded to Scarborough. There has been no request to Council to change that position. A more recent meeting of ratepayers in the West Rouge early last year indicated they did not wish to go to Metro. I believe a letter to that effect was sent to the government by the ratepayers association executive. Under current regional government proposals, all af- fected municipalities have until the end of February 1973 to submit objections and suggested amendments to the proposals. Thus, if the residents of West Rouge object to going to Scarborough, they must state so before the end of February. Such an objection would not necessarily change the government's proposal although, obviously, it would carry considerable weight. Somehow the government has the opinion that "a large portion of the people in the West Rouge want to become part of !Metro". That's a direct quote from the government proposals handed to municipal councils at 10 p.m. last Monday night. I have no idea where the government gets this opinion other than the two-year old request from the ratepayers association of that time as mentioned above. In the past two years the mood of the residents of West Rouge may have changed. Only a plebescite will show if it has. The public vote in such a referendum would be largely personal and emotional. There are few facts to offer at this time. Taxes may or may not change .... educational standards may or may not be better or worse according to individual likes and dislikes ... municipal services may or may not be better. Many people believe that going to Scarborough may give an increased chance to retain the golf course as such. I cannot answer that. Certainly Scarborough is looking for somewhere to put a fire hall for the Centennial Road Community, and they don't have room for it on the Scarborough side of Port Union Road as far as I know. Apart from the impact of West Rouge, the proposals for regional government spell the disappearance of Ontario County to all intents and purposes, so that, presumably, some changes may be expected in the area of jurisdiction of the Ontario County Board of Education. The proposals appear to affect two of Pickenng's four school trustees in that they live in the Kest Rouge which is destined to became part of Scarborough. It simply adds insult to injury for the school board and trustees that they only two weeks ago, went through an election which cost them each several hundred dollars of their own money. t ►ne might think that the elections could have been deferred until the regional government proposals were released, since the government knew for some time that it would be making the announcement in December - but that's the way govern- ments seem to work. The recent school board election also cost Pickering taxpayers $4.000 - now there's likely be into new elections within 10 months. Vrider the government proposals. Pickering merges with Ajax and Pickering Village, but loses all the lands slated for an international airport and the North Pickering Community Project - some 43.000 acres in all. Pickering also loses all land north of the 7th Concession i Hwy 7 is the 6th concession) . Thus, the new municipality of Pickering Ajax 1 and there has been no official name assigned to it - simply Municipality No. 1 1 will in future, comprise 50 acres instead of its present 70 acres. In population• it will be the second largest of nine new municipal areas within the regional boundaries, but in square miles it will be the smallest. The government proposals would give the new Pickaxe town a mayor and four councillors. The mayor and three of the councillors will sit on the regional council in addition to the Pickaxe council. They're going to have to do a lot of running around. As an early guess, the job of councillor, regional or local, is going to he a heavy one under the present proposals. The proposed region stretches east to Port Hope and Coburg and north to include Uxbridge and other towns directly east of it. The entire area may well be economically viable, but it appears to destroy much community of interest for several existing municipalities. So far as Pickering is concerned, much if not all of the community spirit will be destoryed. So. now we know.'

Jan. 4th, 1973 THE: POST Pages Council Christmas 1911 Christmas 1972 was a "family and friends" affair for the member of the Pickering Township Council. None escaped the fog• freezing rain and snow for more congenial climates. Instead they chose to stay at home, or close to it, to spend the holidays. All except Deputy Reeve George Ashe. He and his family, a wife, three sons and a daughter, went to Ottawa one day and London another for family visits. In addition. Mr. Ashe chauf- fered a hockey -playing son to Kingston and Milton during the holidays. Home base for the Ashes is on the east side of Bay Ridges. Reeve John Williams. who also lives in Bay Ridges. spent Christmas with his wife, two children. father and friends. Another Bav Ridges resident. Councillor Don Kitchen, took his vacation during the Christmas season. spending most of the time at home with his wife. son and two daughters. Councillor Jean McPherson had Christmas dinner with her nine grandchildren and their parents at the home of one of her sons, who lives near by her Finch Averwe home. Mrs. McPherson underwent a successful ear operation about a month ago, which has restored the hearing in a formerly deaf ear. The magic of Christmas was renewed for the Matheson's by seeing it through the eaves of their 2 1/2 yr. old son, who was aware of the occasion for the first time. Councillor Ken :Matheson and his wife as well have an 8 month old daughter and live in West Shore. Councillor Jack Anderson and his family followed their tradition of spending Christmas Eve with other family members. Christmas Day was spent in Altona with their neighbours. The An- dersons have three sons. Councillor Don Quick and his wife. who live east of Whitevale, gave a party for 50 or so of their friends during Christmas week. Council members were in. eluded in the party. Kinettes The Bay Ridges Kinettes held their fourth meeting of the 72/73 season on Dec. 12th. The meeting was very active as our past presidents took over. They kept President Sheila quite busy. We had two special guests from the Bay Ridges Florists. They gave us a beautiful and sweet smelling demonstration. I'm sure the Kinettes homes looked extra special during the holiday season. Thanks to these two ladies.

GRACE CHURCH COUPLES'CLUB The annual celebration of Burns' Night will take place on Jan. 19th at Grace Church beginning at 8 p.m. with the evening of Scottish dancing, performed by the Scarborough Scottish Country Dancing Association, pipe music and refreshments organized by Mr and Mrs. Jim Kennedy.

SCHOOL CONCERT The West Rouge Public School held two evenings of utter joy during Christmas week with the Primary members putting on a program of plays and carol singing and the Junior School, the following evening, entertaining with singing and "A Christmas Carol". The talents of our children together with the patience of the teaching staff are limitless and, of course, the odd mishap always helps make the evening. I think everyone enjoyed the performance, particularly one performance by a Jack -in -the Box whose box refused to function when required to open but had a distressing tendency to move around otherwise...... Fortunately, 'Jack', otherwise David Rourke, took it all with aplomb and when he did eventually manage to spring up- wards, did it like a rocket and received a veritable roof - shattering round of applause. ROYAL. BALLET Among the varied talents of the West Rouge area is ballet and in this field eighteen -year old Karen Burak has been accepted as a student for a year with the Royal Ballet, London.

A program of carol singing followed by refreshments was also held at Grace Church on Friday afternoon before Christmas which was organized by Mrs. Joyce Woods and Mrs. Margaret Cairns. ALTAMONT NURSING HOME The above was the scene for a variety of Christmas ac- tivities beginning with a Candlelight Service at St. Margarets -in -the -Pines. On Dec. 11th nine young people from Grace Church sang carols at the Volunteers dinner while on the 12th everyone enjoyed the St. Vincent de Paul's Christ- mas Bingo evening, at which time each resident received a gift. Dec. 13th saw the residents' Christmas party with en- tertainment by the Rhythm Rascals followed next day by the Bowling party for those members of Altamont who enjoy bowling each week. The 16th was the time for '_Melville Presbyterian Church Sunday School to visit and entertain with carols, with the Seventh Day Adventist Church of Scarborough "Sunshine Club" visiting on the 17th to en- tertain with Christmas music. Dec. 19th saw the Pioneer Girls' Club who gave a party and provided refreshments with the 20th seeing the Rhythm Rascals entertaining the residents of Central Park Lodge. Eight students from Sir Wilfrid Laurier College, Scar- borough also sang carols. The week continued with the primary grades, including Kindergarten, from W.G. Davis School visiting Altamont with each class putting on entertainment for the residents with a birthday party for all those who celebrated December birthdays. On the 22nd a Carol Concert followed by presentation of gifts was presented by Don Runyan from Ajax Pentecostal Church. Now all those festivities are over, don't let the rest of the year pass by without someone from the area volunteenng some spare time to help out at Altamont. They desperately need helpers both at the Home and also as dnvers for both the Band and the Bowling team so please do try and start the New Year with an hour or so a week to see that the present shortage of help is soon over. Also , while I think of it, any type of reading material is always welcomed by the residents and maybe some of you have made room for all the Christmas gifts and have some books or magazines which you could pass on. Please call Shirley Richardson at 25"-ira1 both about the vokmteer help or the reading materials.
