Cafik Hands Over $6000 To Town
At that point, the federal
government, under The
Municipal Grants Act, was
able to make the "ex
gratia" payments for these
arrears.
In the case of Pickering,
authority has now been
granted to pay these
arrears for the years 1978 -
1979, upon proof from the
municipality that every
effort has been made to
collect the taxes.
The munici polity assmed
a penalty and interest on
these a rr ea rs. Un-
fortunately, the Depart-
ment of Public Works had
no authority under law to
make payments. Mr. Cafik
has been able to get
authority to pay the
penalty and interest "ex
gratia".
Norm Cafik told Pickering
Council on Monday that the
problem of tax arrears
owing to the Muricipality
of Pick ering has now been
resolved.
He handed over $6,000 to
mayor Jack Anderson.
It was through Mr. Cafik's
representations to both the
Minister of Public Works
and Treasury Board that
authority was granted to
make 11ex gratia"
payments in respect to
these arrears.
The problem in the past
was that under The
Municipal Grants Act the
federal government could
not collect taxes from its
tenants to assure payment
to the municipality in
which those properties
were located.
It was the responsibility of
the municipality to bill the
tenant for his municipal
taxes and, in some cases, if
the tenant had moved in
midyear, the municipality
had to get the bailiff's
assistance.
The RegWations to The
Municipal Grants Act are
being amended to give
authority to the Depart-
ment of Public Works to
collect its ren t and
municipal taxes an a pro

Councillor Don Kitchen
tried to get a 40 krnh speed
zone for all streets in the
Glendale subdivision on
Monday, but Pickering
Town Council voted 3-2
against the idea.
Town manager, Noel
Marshall, told council that
to establish a 40 kmh zone,
the streets must be signed
and each sign costs bet-
ween $40 and $W.
For the whole subdivision
it would be a significant
cost and it must be ap-
proved by the regional
council.
He added that two similar
requests in the past were
rejected by the region.
Mayor Jack Anderson
said that "we're taUdng

the town wanted to absorb

would approve it".

Education Problem
Teachers and some parents have stormed the city of
Toronto board of education to demand that the firing of
teachers due to declining enrolment be stopped and in
North York this week hundreds more did the same thing.
These arguments, legitimate as they may seem to the
people receiving the notices of dismissal, will fall with a
thud on the ears of the Metro Toronto property owners who
are being called upon to bear the educational financial load.
The Provincial government has regularly reduced the
amount of grants to local school boards as it slowly
wheezIes out of the cost of education. It is our opinion that is
is past time for the Conservative government at Queen's
Park to make a change in its way of financing education,
such as the Liberals suggested about 10 years ago. We refer
to the idea that income taxes (a fairer way) should pay for
education and not property taxes. Properties do not create
educational costs - people do.
This chang eprobably wouldn't help the reduction in the
numbers of teachers, but at least it would make financing of
education fairer to those human beings who own properties.
This wotdd take the heat off young people beginning to buy
houses and also senior citizens trying to stay in their
Economic Growth Up But Not Ontario
A regional economic growth forecast in the April issue of
the Bank of Montreal's Business Review has Alberta setting
the pace for 1979 but shows the Atlantic provinces in a
surprisingly strong second place.
'The most spectacular improvement has come in the
fishery. Last year, Canada overtook Norway and Japan to
become the world's largest fish exporter in value terms and
Ow strength of the Atlantic fishery should help Canada hold
that lead in 1979."
With the pulp and paper industry looking for another good
year, some improvement forecast in the mining sector and
investment predicted to grow above the national average,
these additional developments should help keep the Atlantic
economy ticking over until general economic conditions
pick up again in 198D.
Meanwhile, oil has kept Alberta out front in econonuc
growth for many years, although provincial growth seems
likely to cool off somewhat this year. On the plus side, the
Review says, heavy oil and tar sands development could
accelerate because of world price increases. However,
export restrictions and a slow-growing Canadian market
could of Eset some of the impact of higher prices on total oil
ipts.
In other sectors of the Alberta economy, natural gas
prospects are good in view of an increase expected in the
average price and a National Energy Board recom-
mendation favoring export of substantial volumes of the
province's surplus stock. Alberta is also expected to lead
the country in investment activity and the agricultural

Proposes Changes
For Parliament
The Businiess Council an National I= has proposed a
series of recommendations to improve Parliament, ratiging
from a fixed annual schedule of siaings; for the House of
Commons to a ddu*e hmitation an non -confidence votes.
Released in a statement called "Parhammt - Riecorn-
menclaticiris for Change", the Business Council's fizidings
are based m extensive consultations over the past ten
months with Commons and Senate members, senior of-
ficials in the public service, anci representatives of the
private sector, the academic community and the media.
Steele Curry, spokesman for the Busi Council, and
Chef Executive Officer of Revelstoke Companies said,
"our recommendations are directed at strengthening the
effectiverness of the legislative process, strengthening the
committee system, improving access to information, in-
creasing public service accountaliffity and enhancing the
role of the individual Members of Parliament".
The Business Coullocil believes that the present rules of
confidence are impractical and lead to unnecessary
political peftisainsitip in criticizing and defending
legislation. Consequently, the Council urges that
Pariiament redefine and narrow the scope of what can be
desigmted as a lion -confidence vote. Rather than have
government treat every issue as one of confidence, "the
rules of confidence should be confined to the Throne Speech,
the Budget, the Estimates in Total and to those legislative
issues upon which the government designates its
willingness to stand or fall," the study recommends.
The Business Councilcontends that the House of Commons
could function more efficiently if a fixed annual schedule
were estabhshed for each sitting, permitting the individual
members to allocate their time more reasonably.
Specifically, the Business Council recornm that

journment to pertrut Members to carry out their con-
stituency work.
Tbe role of committees shoill d be revised to make them
more effective, the Busuiess Council says. Standuog
committees should be recluced in size and be given the
power to select subjects for investigation within their
jurisdictions. as well as the authority and budget to hire
expert staff.
The Business Council also recommends that a freedom of
information statute be enacted to ensure that relevant
information - subject to provisions for national security,
indivi dial privacy, and confidential advice to ministers - is
made available to Members of Parliament and the public.
It also recommends that the government publish pre -
legislative white papers outlining the government's position
on proposed legislation, and that, whenever possible, a new
bill be accomparied by the regulations proposed to support
it Currently, too many regulations are enacted without
advance scrutiny by elected representatives.
The government should be encouraged to develop and
defend its revenue and exper4ture plans within the context
of mom and better infoirmiation and a longer time -frame.
This process should include the creation of a joint House of
Commons -Senate Committee to hold pre -budget hearings,
and to receive testimony and submissions. The Minister of
Finance and the President of the Treasury Board should be
required to publish before the Blue Book Estimates are
presented to Parliament, an annual white paper on
govern mente xpenditure with three -to -five-year projecti�w
and a standi rig committee should be established to receive
and scrutinize it.
The Business Council recommends that a doctrine of
accountability of senior pubhc servants be established
along with a complementary doctrine of ministerial ac-
countability, and that deputy ministerial accountability
include the obligation to testify before parliamentary
committees on matters of administration.
Individual Members of Parliament, subject to ex-
traordinary demands on their time, could become more
effective if their staff budgets provided for the Wring of one
additional assistant to aid them in carrying out their
legislative nesponsibilities, according to the Business
Council, In addition, opportunities for private Members'
resolutions and bills should be increased by allowing a fixed
number to come to vote in the House.
"Without change," the Business Council concludes,
"Parliament will simply be incapable of dealing effectively
with the increasing complexity of modern government."
The time for change is long overdue and the adoption of
these recomnienclatiorm, Ow Busuiess Council believes, will
assist Parliament in meeting the challenges of the future.
outlook is "fairly good".
British Columbia and Quebec are also expected to finish
the year with above-average growth. Bright spots in the
B.C. economy are tourism, fishing and captial investment.
Mining and forestry could face problems this year beepuse
of the predicted U.S. and Canadian economic downturns
and only modest growth by Japan. A heavy labor
bargaining calendar could also spell trouble.
Quebec growth is rated at, or above the national average,
largely because of strength in some manufacturing areas.
"Butthere wouldappear to be substantial downside risks in
this forecast," the Review cautions, because of expected
'less buoyant" retail sales, smaller growth in the pulp and
paper industry, a weak home construction sector and below
average investment.
1�oveinrafl growth for Ontario should be a little below the
national average because of below -par perfornumes by
manufacturing and mirting." However, agriculture should
have a good year and the construction industry should be
stronger with capital spending expected to grow above the
national average and almost twice as fast as in 1978.
Growth well below the national average is expected in
Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Agricultural growth is ex-
pected to be only modest because of weaker grain markets.
Prospects for sales of non-ferrous metals are not "overly
good" and moderate construction growth in Saskatchewan
will be offset by a standstill in Manitoba. The only bright
spots am in the oil and potash sectors.

corporations comprising 25 units or more, and changes
which affect owners who take possession of their units

Condominiurn owners will also benefit from the added
mourance coverage required by conclommium car-
porations. As of June 1. condominium corporations are
responsible for irtsuring the individual urat structures.
Owners mint insure the contents and improvements to the
unit and carry liability insurance.
Condominium Ontario will also be set up as a result of the
new Act. It will operate as an inidependent organization
offering technical and information services as well as help
in resolving disputes.
"Candorni nNim Ontario will allow condominium owners to
run their own show," said Mr. Drea. 'The Ontario govern-
ment wi B help get Condominium Ontario off the ground by

An interim board will be in place by the end of April and

Private Home
Day Care
Private home day care is, by far, the most widely used
ferm of day care for children in Canada. Considering the
number of hours our children spend in day care homes, it
should be more than a "babysitting" service. But hiclow much
more' What should we look for"
THE PHYSICAL SETUP. Is the home safe, clean, warm,
well lighted and ventilated' Is there enough room and
facilities for rest and play periods indoors; and outdoors?
THE DAY CARE PROVIDER. Is she healthy, energetic,
flexible in her attitudes toward others? Does she com-
municate well, genuinely like children and treat them as
individuals? Has she sufficient experience and training in
life skills, such as nutrition, safety, child development?
NUMBER OF CHELDREN. Legally she can provide care
for up to five children, depending upon their ages - no more
than two under the age of 2 or three under the age of 3. This
number provides ample opportunity for children to relate
both to the provider and to other children in a home setting.
ACTTVITIES. Do the children in care receive stimulation in
the form of creative activities, social interaction, and
learning opportuitities' Do they have alternate quiet and
active periods? Indoor and outdoor play?
According to Jean Blake, Supervisor of Day Care Finders
in Agincourt, these are just some of the important con-
sidera tions; in choosi rig a day care home. Day Care Finders
is a program operated by Famfly Day Care Services, a non-
profit agency with many years experience in supervising
private home day care in Metropolitan Toronto.
"Our providers are full-time employees of Family Day
Care Services, carefully selected and screened in their
homes. They are supervised and trained in child care skills
by professional staff who visit the home on a continuing
basis to ensure job satisfaction for the provider and good
day care for the children," she said.
Day Care Finders is the only program of its kind in
metropolitan Toronto providing full-time salaried em-
ployment and training to private home caregivers. "In this
way, " she said, "we can ensure thatchilch-en enrolled in our
program are receiving the attention and guidance of a
provider who has chosen to provide quality day care as a
full-time occupation."
Fees range from $30.00 to $W.00 per child per week,
depending on the hours of care needed. For more in-

Fewer Buses Next Year
'bY Ruth Schweitzer
There may be fewer
school buses for Scar-
borough's students next
year.
A Board of Education
committee is thinking of
reducing the school bus
service. All the people who
would be affected by the
changes will be notified.
At Monday ni ght's
meeting of the Planning
Committee Ken Goodwin,
Superintendent of Planning
and Operations, proposed
that several bus routes be
eliminated.
In his report to the
committee Goodwin says
that beginning in Sep-
tember 1979 transportation
should not be provided for
the pupils from:
the McCowan Road -
Sheppard Avenue area to
Timothy Eaton Secondary
School.
north of Finch Avenue to
the H.E.P.C. line west of
Kennedy Road to Timothy
Eaton S.S.
northof Finch Avenue to
the H.E.P.C. line west of
Kennedy Road to Sir Wm.
Cisler Vocational School.
the tfighland Creek Public
School to West Hill
Collegi ate
both sides of Neilson Road
north of Ellesmere Road to
West Hill Colftiate.
The report also recom-
nxrxb that transpartation
not be provided for
children in the Henry
Kelsey Senior Public
School area north of Finch
Avenue and south of the
H.E.P.C. line and that bus
siervice be reduced for
students who live east of
Colonel Danforth Trail in
the Centenniall Road area.
Bert Dandy, Separate
School Representative for
Wards Ito 5, propowd that
parents should be notified
before the bus service
ends. Dandy says many
people will be upset.
Goodwin explained that
the routes are questionable
as they do riot conform with
Board policy.
"Quite frankly, I think the
parents would be rather
foolish to be willing to lose
their transportation," he
said.
Ward 12 Trustee Richard
Sanders pointed out that
junior kindergarten
children walking close to a
mile in a busy route is
questionable.
Goodwin replied that
many kids in junior kin-
dergarten already walk
close to a mile to get to
school. Crossing guards
.help the children at in-
tersections.
According to the
Education Act a "child is
excused from attendance
at school, if transportation
is not provided by the
Board: if the school is over
a mi le away and the child is
under seven or if the school
is over two miles away and
the chi Id is over seven or if
the school is over three
miles away and the chdd is
ten or over.
Board policies in Scar-

reasons upon receipt of
proof of chsability.
It also provides tran-
sportation for students who
attend special or remedial
classes and for students
who attend Home

walking distance is deemed
excessi ve, or public
transport is not available.
Board Approves
Record Budget

breaking budget of
$169,329.363 Last week to
provide for the ed ucation of
its 91,612 pupils in 1979.
The budget is $14.396,685
higher ton the 1978 ex-
penditure at $154,944678 for
an increase of 9.27%. To
restrict the rate of in-
crease, the Board spent
several weeks reducing
and/or eliminating ap-
proximately $11 million in
programs and services
from the initial budget
requests.
The property tax increase
is 1,9 mills or 4.37%. This is
equivalent to $9.50 on a
residence assessed at
$5,000. The new rates are
45.47 mills residential and
50.52 mills commercial
Compared to the 197a rates
of 43.57 and 49.41.
Sour,ces and amounts of
revenue are: Provincial

reserve for working funds,
$3,144,34. including
$1.930,386 from the reserve

Only 14 Attend Meeting
by Kathy Harford
The solutions to the
suburban problems is riot
in "great outlays of
money" but in support
systems built within the
communities, Roy Gordon
said of the Metro Social
Planning Report last week.
Students helping the
elderly with grocery
shopping and snow
shoveling and neighbors
helping neighbors would be
a great starting poirt in
solving our problems, the
Cosburn Jr. High School
teacher said.
Mr. Gordon t d d a meeting
at Chartland Jr. High
School tha t he was not as
optimistic about the future
of the suburbs as Alderman
John Wimbr, had said he
was.
'�Goverrlrnent has taken
away our responsibilities in
12 way and part of the
solution hes in educating
people in their civic
responsibilities,*' he said.
Alderman John Wimbs
called last week's meeting
to get community groups
and concerned residents to
discuss the Metro Social
Planting Report, "Metro,
Suburbs In TTansitian".
But only about 14 people
turned out to the meeting.
Mr. Wimbs wanted
community members to
comment and make
suggestions before the
social planning council
brings out its recom-
mendations in the second
part of the report.
The first part of the report
dealt with the growing
problems of juvenile
crime, unemployment and
other social problems in
the suburbs.
Chairman of the meeting,
John Larke, principal of
Agincourt Collegiate and a
member of the Scar-
borough Planning Board,
said present problems
should not be blarried en-
firely on post plannirg.
We built roads and houses
years ago because that was
what was needed at the
tittle, he said.
'�Other aspects of plan-
ning were neglected
because no one projected
what would happen 25
ye,ars down the road" he
said, citing unemployment
as an example.
"There is too much self-
centred materialism
toda y, - one resident
commented. -Chkiren are
suffering because parents
don't know bow to be
parents."
The impact of pertnts on
children seems to have
been lost over the years, he
added. With both parents

Youth cannot deal with -
their leisure time which
has created problems and
with the 30 hour work week
approaching, that problem
could carry an through all

added.
Summarizing the
discussim at the end of the

there seemed to be a cry
for more responsiblity by
individuals which in b=
seemed to be a cry for less

Ilie annual Awards are in
honou r of Anson S. Taylor,
who retired in July, 1977,
after 25 years with the
Scarborough Board of
Education, including 16
years as its Director. Mr.
Taylor was the sole

presentation is scheduled
to take place at the Board's
June IS meeting.
Ahird of the businessmen
don't object to it within 60
days, the by-law could be
Implemented. However,
after this, the matter goes
onto the Ortario Municipal
Board and objections
would still be heard at that
time.
Representative of the
Iffirlistry of Housing, Mark
Emmerson, said what the
designation will do is allow
businessmen "to club
together to raise money
thirough the municipality
which will be used to
promote improvements in
their area".
The businesses will be
levied an additional tax
which will be based on the
reality tax and applied
through the business tax,
Mr. Belfontaine said.
The additional tax will be
comprised of a ratio bet-
ween a businessman's real
estate tax and the
proportion of the total real
estate tax in the area, Mr.
Emmerson said.
A Board of Management
would be responsible for
setting up the budget, but
final apqxoval would rest
with Council.
Bill Belfontaine told the
last Council meeting that
some 130 to 170 businesses
in the Cliffside area were
interested in the scheme
and tried to convince
Council to send notice of
the by-law right away.
Although Council mem-
vula, appeared to like the
idea in principal, they
expressed concern about
the businessmen's full
awareness of the program.
Controller Brian Harrison
said the businessmen
would wait full details an
justwhat the additional tax
Levy would be and what
they would be getthig for
their money.
The ma Itter went back to
the works and tran-
sportation committee last
week and businessmen
assured committee that of
a the businessmen they
bad notified only one or two
objected.
Sam Rutrun. a member
at the steering committee
for the project, outlined a
proposal for the group's
first budget.

$15,000, $7,5DO would go
towards landscaping,
$7,500 to park benches,

That would mean roughly

Mr. Tutman said that

Bill Watt's World
ON STAGE: At one point
during the running of The
Neon Woman which is
playing until Saturday at
the Danforth Music Hall
the line is delivered 'The
world will never be rid of
decadence.". How true!
How very, very true! And
the best proof of that
statement is the play that
spawns it, The Neon
Woman.
During the approximate
two hour ruming time you
will see coitus,
miscegenation, incest,
aberrational incest, drug
addiction, dypsomania,
nymphomania and
necrophelia.
And you know what?
You'lllaugh yourself silly
over it all. The secret is to
treat it as what it is in-
tended to be . . a sendup of
everything in this world of
ours that is wrong. Our
American friends have
long known that the best
weapon against corruption
of anything is ridicule - the
wisecrack.
Now, if you choose to see
Neon Woman and will in
fact be exposed to much of
Toronto's soft underbelly of
decadence and persersion
in the audience. Pay no
attention to it. Pay no at-
tention to the fact that it

I think particularly of the
clown in front of me on
opening night, the clown
who was wearing a hat
complete with Mercury
wings.
Instead, concentrate on
the sometimes absurdity of
the human condition, laugh
at it and purge yourself
with that laughter.
Afterwards, bring
yourself to think about the
performance of Divine in
the main role of Flash
Storm the proprietess; of a
sleazy Baltimore burlesque
house. Here is 3DO potmds of
honest vulgarity and
hilarity. Could be wrong of
course but I thi nk Divine is
the man who appeared as
the female impersonator
on several episodes of All
In The Family. Certainly,
he looks and sounds like
her. Certainly he is furiny.
Funny too is the per-
formance of William Edgar
as Kitty LaRue. the
stripper who donates her
eamings to the Lesbian
Benev al en t Association.
When he confesses he is a
transvestite, Divine in-
forms him that he cannot
stand drag queens or
Democrats'.
Valerie Risely is funny as
a stripper who seems to be
in a permanent state of
lactation.

some of those well in-

realize that even an en-

O'Connor cannot have his
timing thrown off con-

actions from the floor.

observations on world
politics. "The real issue
facing the British voter is
to choose between a
dithering old lady and

depicting the era.
The show had a fresh look
about it that added to the
sparkle which the en-
thusiasm of the cast gave
to it.
The M.M.T. consisted of
six young ladies and six
your men ranging in age
from 11 year old Laura
MacDonald to recent
graduates from Scar-
horough College.
The choral work was
exceptionally well
balanced and the toning
was very pleasant. The
show had the look of being
well rehearsed and
professional. Each person
on stage seemed to have
the presence to know in-
stinctively what to do and
when to do it.
The staging was simple,
yet effective. I am still
unable to believe that this
show was put together with
only one rehearsal. Real
professiona lism.
The program consisted of
over 20 musical numbers
including the title song.
The "Bird In the Gilded
Cage", '14y Wils Irish
Rose", "Beautiful
Dreamer" were among the
other nostalgic airs.
While each member of
the cast is a soloist, special
mention should be made of
Celine Papizewski and
Ame-Maria Hurle. Both
young ladies have ex-
ceptional voices and also
have dramatic and comic
talent. They are full time
students at the Royal
Conservatory.

HOME IMPROVEMENT
Starting A New Lawn From Seed Or Sod
A little extra care in
getting anew lawn properly
started is important in
assuring a beautiful lawn
according to horticultural
experts in the lawn and
garden section of Canadian
Industries Limited
agricultural chemicals
diviSlon.
New lawns can be started
either from seed or sod.
Sod has the advantage that
itgives instant cover, but it
is more expensive. Seeding
is more economical but the
new lawn from seed must
be given time to get well
established before heavy
use.
Whether seeding or
sodding. preparation of the
soil is important. Make
sure it is well prepared.
Lumps must be broken up
and if it is heavy clay, add
humus, peat moss or even a
little fine sand. The object
is to obtain a fine, loose
bed.
If you have to spread a
layer of top sail to obtain
the desired level, or to
provide a seed bed, don't be
surprised to find the top
soil contains a large
Dumber of weeds. These
will germinate with the
grass seed and must be
eliminated later in the
year.
When properly prepared
the seed bed should be
fertilized with a fertilizer
like CIL Turf Starter, 16-32-
6. Apply at the rate of 10
lbs. per 1000 square feet,
and wan it Duo the soil to a
depth two to three inches.
With the seed bed
prepared to the desired
level and contour, sow the
seed evenly, and rake in
gently. Do not work the
seed in too deeply or it will
not germinate. An 1/8 inch
et soil over the seed is
sufficient Rake in one
direction only, as excessive
raking tends to concentrate
the seed in channels or
fidges. After covering the
seed, roll the lawn to firm
the soil around the seed.
The roller and woil must be
dry, otherwise the seed and
soil will stick to the roller
and ruin the seed

distribution.
It is important to keep off
the newly seeded lawn. A
single strand wire or rope
fence will help, as will
signs. Tree branches
spread over the lawn will
also discourage children
and pet traffic.
The newly seeded lawn
should be kept moist but
not saturated, until the
grass is at least an inch
high. Use a very fine spray
toavoid washing the soil off
the seed until it is well
rooted.
When the new grass
reaches a height of 2 1/2 to
3 inches it is ready for the
first cutting. Do not cut
when the ground is too
damp as the mower wheels
will dig into the ground.
Similarly a rotary type
power mower may pull the
new seedlings out if the
ground is wet. A reel type
mower puts less stress on
young plants.
Roll the lawn again
following this first cutting
to firm up the soil around
the grass roots. Do not use
a heavy miler. The object
is simply to firm up the soil
around the roots. A heavy
roller compacts the soil
and it is then unable to
absorb water or air.
When the grass is
established, feed it with
fertilizer like CIL
Golfgreen at 10 bs. per 1000
sq. ft.
The problem of weed
seeds in top soil was
mentioned earlier. If
broadleaved weeds are
apparent by mid-June you
can take steps to kill them
by using CIL Weed and
Feed at 5 lbs. per 1000 sq.
ft. Even if the weeds are
thriving before that date do
not apply a herbicide
earlier than mid-June as it
may kill the young grass.
This is assuming that the
lawn was started early and
is well established by mid-
June. It is best to con-
centrate on getting your
lawn established the first
year and hit the weeds in
the fall or next year.
Many of the principles
used in starting a new lawn
from seed also apply to
sodding. Preparation of the
seed bed is similar, and it
should be fertilized to a
depth of two to three inches
with Turf Starter before
the sod is laid.
The sod should be rolled
after laying to press it into
place. The new sod should
be kept moist, but not
saturated, until the grass is
growing vigorously.
Once established these
new lawns can be main-
tained by following the
lawn care instructions in
the CIL Lawn & Garden
Guide, available free from
your CIL dealer.

Awards To Be Updated
A complete revision of the Canada
Fitness Awards was announced by
the Non. lona Gwgagnolo, Minister
of SUM, Fireless all Amateur Sport
The Canadian Association for
Neater, Physical Eduction and
Recreation will be conducting the
study over the next few months, on
behalf of the Flbess and Amateur
Sport Branch of Malts and Welfare
Canada.
Approximately 150 schools
randomly selected by Statistics
Canada will participate in the study.
In turn this will entail the tasting of
some 12,000 school children hem all
of the provinces and territories.
The results of the study, which
coincides with the International Year
of the Child, will lead to a major
revision of the norms of the Canada
Fitness Awards. Measurements will
be converted M the metric system
and the entire program, including the
awards, will be given a striking new
took.
The study was originally
conducted 14 years 4a090o and
eventually Mid M the astabl *nt of
the Caned. Fitness Awards. This
unipwly Canadian program is still
widely used as ame4re of
recognizing children' achievements
and motivating Mem to become
physically fit.
The study has three p a) to

Report From Queen's Park
BY GEORGE ASHE, MPP
For the past six years, the Government of Ontario has
designated the month of May as Family Unity Month, in
order to provide us with an opportunity to pause and reflect
upon the importance of the family within society.
In discussing the family unit, many people have false
notions about the facts. It is not true that fewer people are
getting married. In fact, the marriage rate is higher today
than it was fifteen years ago. There is simply no question
that marriage continues to be a very popular institution.
The divorce rate has, however, increased in recent years.
Statistics do show that most people who get married .. stay
married, and of those who divorce, a great many remarry,
this reaffirming their faith in the importance of family life.
It certainly isn't any myth that the size of the average
family has declined. People are having fewer children, but
the actual proportion of families with children has in-
creased sere 1951, and is currently at historic highs. So
although the birth rate has fallen, more people than ever
before have chosen to have children.
According to the latest statistics, more than 85% of the
people in Ontario are living within a family structure,
which is a higher pe'centage than in the '50s. But not
everyone views family living in the same way. Our
traditional family unit of two parents and children is con-
tinuing to thrive. But with today's choices, many couples
have active, happy family lives without children. Relaxed
adoption laws have proven the theory of family cohesion for
mixed races. And every day records more success stories of
dose, weUadjusted single parent families.
Each of these emerging different family structures im-
pace on the individuals involved and society as a whole.
However, study emphasis in our western society has mainly
been directed towards the health and happiness of in-
dividuals. The fact that most individuals do live within a
family context, has quite dtea been ignored. Despite its
obvious importance, family life is a rather neglected area
of research.
This vacuum has not escaped the attention of the Govern-
ment of Ontario. Last year, the Province committed itself
to undertake a comprehensive review of its policies and
programs as they affect the family with the aim of making
appropriate changes to these policies and programs that
would enhance the role and authority of the family unit. As
much as possible. information will be gathered for this
review in living rooms and church basements around the
Province.
Within the last year, major legislative changes have been
made affecting families. These include The Family Law
Reform Act. which regulates property rights and support
obligations. A children's services division has been created
in the Ministry of Community and Social Services, and
there is a unit dealing strictly with family health within the
Ministry of Health. And of course, the Government of
Ontario is celebrating the International Year of the Child.
At Queen's Park, an Inter -Ministry Committee on
Families has been appointed to look into various policies of
the Ministries which affect families. during Family Unity
Month, this Committee plans to release several papers
which will be designed to encourage discussion and feed-
back from the public about families.
The Government of Ontario wants to explore the
relationships between Government and families. We are
open-minded in our explorations. We are not looking for a
confirmation of what we believe, but rather an affirmation
of what families themselves want from Government. The
family is fundamental in the formation of a strong in-
dividual, and as such requires appropriate Government
polios that will enhance the role and authority of the
family unit.

Report From Queen's Park by George Ashe,MPP
NUCLEAR ELECTRIC POWER
With all the official statements on nuclear electric power
resulting from the accident at Three Mile Island in Penn-.
sylvania. I was rather reluctant to border my constituents,
who have been living in harmony with the Pickering
Generating station for more than a decade, with any ad-
ditional wards an this subject. However, a recent letter to
the editor of a local weekly newspaper pointing out my
negligence in this regard, has changed my mind. In today's
column I will address the safety and security of nuclear
energy, and next week I will discuss the cost of supply.
Three Mile bland has brought home to the Provincial
Government and Ontario Hydro the importance of com-
municating to the press and the public, clearly and ac-
curately. events as they happen, and the necessity for order
in the execution of public safety measures. In the weeks and
months ahead, the Government will be working with On -

tario Hydro and local officials to streamline the present
procedures for better informing the press and the public on
nuclear safety issues.
The accident at Thee Mile Island, while unfortunate, has
served a very valuable purpose in rrovirw that the safety
measures built into the plant by the scientists do work.
Prior to Three Mile Island, these were paper theories,
because they had never been put to the test. No one, either
inside or outside of the Harrisburg plant, was injured or
overly -exposed to radiation throughout the duration of the
crisis. An this outcome gives even greater confidence to our
Ontario scietists because our Candu reactors are, in many
respects, safer than those used in the United States. Simply
stated, aur Canal system, among other features, provides
for putting the containment system under vacuum in the
event of a spill of radioactive material, whereas the
American reactor does not.
Realistically, the absolute safety of any industrial process
or human activity, cannot be guaranteed. There is risk in
everytting we do .. flying an airplane, cooking by gas,
working in a mine or generating electricity by any means,
including nuclear reactors. But nuclear plants have been
operating in Ontario niw for fifteen years, and there has not
been a single radiation injury to the public or to the
operating staff. (Just to clarify a point, recently two em-
ployees at Bruce Generating station were exposed to 5 1/2
and 8 Rems d radiation. This is less than the amount of
radiation encountered by anyone having a routine X-ray
series ).
Ontario presently has three main sources of energy .. oil,
gas and electricity. Gas and oil must be imported. During
these volatile and uncertain political times adequate
supplies at a reasonable price are not secure, particularly
in the case of ail. We can and do produce electricity our-
selves, and we know we can rely on this source of energy for
both industrial and residential use.
As everyone is aware, to generate electricity, we must
have power plants. Up until 1965, electricity was produced
through the use of hydraulics (water) and fossil fuels (coal
and al). Since 1965, we have also generated electricity in
this province through the use of nuclear reactors utilizing
our Ontario uraninum resources. Last year, almost one-
third of the electric power used in Ontario was provided
from this source. The days when electricity from Niagara
Falls, or other water -generated electric plants, can supply
a large share of Ontario's power needs are gone forever.
Coal, like oil, must be imported and therefore an adequate
supply, at a reasonable price, is not secure. Further, coal
burning plants produce large quantities of acid rain. As
pointed out previously in this column, if we do not reduce
our use of this pollutant (no less increase it with more coal
burning generating plants), within twenty years, 48,000
lakes in Ontario will be contaminated and vegetation and
forests may slowly be destroyed.
Our energy requirements are growing, and our scientists
have not yet perfected ways to harness the sun and other
renewable energy sources. The Government's choices for
meeting the increased energy demands of the Ontario
taxpayers are limited. We can rely on the whims of other
governments with the purchase of more gas and oil, for
however long these resources last and at ever increasing
prices. We can build more fossil fuel electric generating
stations, once again with uncertainty of supply at a
reasonable price and add to acid rain. Or we can continue
with aur nuclear program, with its proven technological
and safety record, albeit with some, although small risks.
