Ambulance
Sought
by Ralph Bradley
In a far-reaching report
by the Durham Region
District Health Council
presented to the town of
Pickering's Executive
Committee on Monday
evening, a reorganization
of the existing ambulance
service of the AjaxlPicker-
ing Hospital was proposed.
f adopted, this would pro-
vide additional services to
Pickering, speed up
response time, and all
without asking the govern-
ment for more money.
The impetus for the
review came from Coun-
cillor Laurie Cahill to the
health council requesting
that the existing am-
bulance service in Picker-
ing be expanded to a 24
hour service.
The present program pro-
vides for one 24 hour'7 day
service at the hospital, one
10 a.m. to 6 p.m service at
the hospital, and one 9.5
Monday - Friday service at
Brock and Bayly.
I t Is suggested that this be
reorganized to one 24 , 7 day
service, one 10a.m. - 6 p.m.
Monday - Friday service,
to be relocated to Church
Street north of the 401 or in
the vicinity and managed
by the Whitby Ambulance
Service.
The idea of having one
service for the entire
region from Whitby to the
bonder of Scarborrough did
not sit well with the ex-
ecutive committee
members.
Councillor Don Kitchen
suggested that Pickering
was now large enough to
warrant a complete service
on its own, and that there
should be two stations and
two ambulances to serve
Ajax and Pickering.
Councillor Alex Robertson
responded, "There was a
time when we had very effi-
cient services under the
free enterprise system.
Everyone wanted govern-
ment to take over, and im-
mediately it's mucked up.
You can't have your
socialism without the
money. To talk about an ex-
tra ambulance, another
station, when you have no
money will not work. We all
have high ideals, but the
fact is the Department of
Health are cutting back
and in a very dramatic
way..'
Councillor Bob Mitchell
said. "I can see the com-
promise they are sug-
gesting is a good one. It will
save money (=75,000), but
future growth of Pickering
should require a service of
its own...
The executive committee
voted to recommend that
the new compromise ser-
vice be stationed not at
Church Street in the vicini-
ty of the 401, but
son mbere close to Brock
Road in the centre of
Pickering giving easy and
rapid access to all areas.

Opinion
a page for expression
for you and us
Save The Guild
Members of the Friends of the Guild are looking for ways
to convince government - especially the Metro Toronto
Council that a number of points must be remembered if the
atmosphere and historical significance of the Guild Inn in
Scarborough is to be preserved.
Shortly the term of lease for Mr. Spencer Clark to have the
Inn and the surrounding gardens filled with architectural
artifacts will run out. The Metro Parks Dept. seems poised
to push the Guild land into another ordinary park, at which
'this dept. is especially competent.
However, those who view the Guild Inn property as a na-
tional treasure and not just a park, would like to see the
idea, the land and the atmosphere protected.
We suggest that the first thing to preserve is the fence sur-
rounding the Guild Inn and gardens. This will tend to stop
vandalism on the pieces of stone placed there. Next, the
sweeping view from the rear of the Inn down to the Bluffs
and the lake must be maintained as this is the view which
countless weddings, guests and conference members have
so thoroughly enjoyed.
And the Guild Inn should be run similar to the present
under a manager who integrates the Inn facilities with the
surrounding architectural grounds. A profit making com-
mercial operator is not the right kind of operator of the
Guild Inn. It needs a board of management to preserve the
concept and a business person to carry off the tasks of pro-
viding a good facility within those guidelines.
We hope that reason will prevail at Metro Council and the
Guild Inn is preserved as suggested by the Friends of the
Guild.
Bob's Notes
Car Standby Tax
Have you read those new little rules about taxes on your
car if you happen to be a business person who uses a car for
business as well as pleasure? It proves that maniacs still
exist at Ottawa! How any civil servant could come up with
such a complicated. idiotic piece of costly bureaucratic
nonsense is hard to understand.
We do hope if those Tories get elected that they cleanse the
Finance Dept. of all civil servants who have had anything to
do with these thousands of nit-picking rules designed to
frustrate the entrepreneur.

Don't Change Name
As reported in the March 9th edition of the Pickering Post,
the renaming of the Brock Road in Pickering as proposed
by the Ajax -Pickering Board of Trade is a controversial
and radical suggestion.
To change the name of Brock Road to Pickering Road is to
change and erase history itself. Although it is not a widely
known fact, the road was built by British Army Engineers
as a retreat escape route in the event of attack from the
United States.
Fortunately the road was never used. However the builder
of the road died on the field of battle defending this country
in the War of 1812. The road has and hopefully will continue
to preserve the immortality of this great Canadian hero, Sir
Isaac Brock.

Methane Gas Discovered At Momingside Landfill Site
Smokers Arise & Be Counted
In response to the article on page one of this paper Mar.
2 82 "tion Smokers Now 61.8%". Whoever did that survey
must have only counted the non-smokers leaving the Salva-
tion Army Churches after a service. And even "If" non-
smokers are a majority, what right do they have to be pre-
judicial to smokers. Spreading propaganda that portrays
smokers as degenerates. When most, if not all, of the non-
smokers are perpetrators of equal, if not greater offenses.
There is no doubt that smoking causes some harmful af-
fects to smokers and non-smokers. But then, what doesn't.
It seems that everything we enjoy is either illegal, immoral
or fattening.
However, what is most distressing, is the apparent con-
spiracy against smokers by non-smoking pseudo -experts,
who make use of hypotheses and half-truths as a means of
obtaining renown.
If these born-again non-smokers are seriously concerned
about people's health, why don't they take a survey to
determine how many smokers it would take to equal the
health hazard of just .'one" car. Taking into consideration,
not only carbon monoxide but also lead, asbestos, dirt
thrown up by the wheels and injuries and deaths resulting
from accidents.
Or how about a comparison between tobacco and alcohol.
Not only as a health hazard, but also in regards to violence
and production kiss, and the combining effects of impaired
driving. Then, again, which is more harmful to health -
tobacco or the chemicals put on and in all the food we eat.
And since the Provincial Task Force on smoking, Ontario
Health Council. Scarborough Board of Health, etc, etc, en-
joy ung the taxpayers money - why do they not in-
vestigate whether it is tobacco, per se, or the unknown
number of chemicals to it, that causes the "real" problem.
Then they would be doing a service to both smokers and
non-smokers.
As for careless smokers - if the tobacco companies didn't
put chemicals in cigarettes, causing there to be more com-
bustible, and if the companies producing alcoholic
beverages didn't advertise that it is manly to be inebriated,
there would be far less damage, injury and deaths from so-
called careless smokers, who fall asleep in a drunken
stupor before dropping their cigarettes.
But of all the ridiculous statements made by any organiza-
tion - the one encouraging the Federal Govermmexnt to take
action to prohibit the promotion of tobacco, and the one ask-
ing the Provincial Government to "Double" the retail price
of cigarettes, is beyond belief. The former is like asking me
to cut off my right arm. Because the Government gets a fair
chunk of the retail price from tobacco sales, and the
government already gives urs a tongue-in-cheek warning
that smoking is harmful to health, we might be inclined to
believe it if an after -thought hadn't been added - "avoid in-
haling". That's like asking people to chew their food, then
spit it out. And the latter, because it wound create more pro-
blems than it would solve. It would increase the smuggling
and sales of marijuana and create a black-market trade in
stolen tobacco, plus related crimes.
In conclusion, I would like to say that I sincerely hope that
the people connected with these organizations do not have
their sights set on political office. As our society is already
over -stocked with leaders with one -finger mentalities. And
two suggestions that the "experts" missed. One, that car

A glimmer of hope
amid the gloom
By W. Roger Worth
The nation's smaller firms
have been hit hard by the worst
economic downturn since the
1930's, yet there is a glimmer of
hope amid the disappearance
of 80,000 companies in the last
year.
The good news: 150,000 new
firms were created in 1982.
Better still, the 64.000 -member
Canadian Federation of Inde-
pendent Business estimates
another 200,000 new companies
could be set up this year, pro-
viding Ottawa delivers the
right budget.
Nevertheless, the job creation
efforts of the small business
sector have not been enough to
keep up with spiralling layoffs.
As a result, there are no jobs for
at least 1.5 million Canadians.
While it is difficult to assess
blame, particularly when the
world economy is in such a
slump, it is becoming clear that
the macroeconomists and other
"experts" in the corridors of
power simply don't understand
the nature of entrepreneurs,
and their importance to our
success or failure at creating
jobs.
A recent article in Britain's
respected business magazine,
The Economist, bluntly out-
lines the facts:
e Since 1969, about two-
thirds of America's new
private sector jobs have come
from workplaces with fewer
than 25 employees. (A similar
situation exists in Canada.)
e c'hat's more, these small
companies lose less than 1
percent of the days lost
through tabour disputes by
companies with more than
1,000 employees.
• Small firms produce an
unbelievable 24 times as many
innovations for each research
and development dollar as
large companies do.
• Japan's manufacturing in-
dustry has had greater success
and less unemployment because
58 percent of the employees are
in workplaces with fewer than
100 employees, compared to
less than 25 percent in the in-
dustrialized countries of the
West.
The Economist asks this
question: Are countries and
businesses adopting the correct
quickly -changing entrepre-
neurial mechanism$ to put new
technology into productive
effect?
Sadly, from a government
policy viewpoint, the answer to
that question in Canada is
"No". Rather than spending
millions to bail out the corpo-
rate losers, the Ottawa estab-
lishment should make a con-
certed effort to foster the entre-
preneurial spirit, perhaps our
country's greatest resource. As
well, policies to better support
such risk taking should be put
into place.
It's one of the few ways
Canadians can be assured of
jobs, in both the short term
and the long term.

The Battle of The Scarborough Transportation Corridor
by Gay Abbate
Residents who object to
Metro acquiring additional
lands to protect the right-
of-way for the Scarborough
Transportation Corridor
are only thinking of
themselves, not of those
who may live near there in
the future charges Con-
troller Joyce Trimmer.
The controller, along with
her colleagues on Board of
Control, Ken Morrish and
Frank Faubert, last
Wednesday voted to send
the borough solicitor to the
Ontario Municipal Board in
support of Metro's petition
to be allowed to purchase
properties along the right-
of-way as they become
available.
Only Mayor Gus Harris
and Controller Carol Rud -
dell opposed the decision.
The argument used by
those who support reten-
tion of the right-of-way is
that the lands are merely
being protected until a
decision is made about
what to do with the lands.
Mayor Harris believes in
calling a spade a spade.
"We're talking about an ex-
pressway" Harris told the
board. Although he had
originally supported a
transportation corridor,
Mayor Harris is now sure
that the corridor would be
used for an expressway.
"I will continue to oppose
purchase of further lands
for an expressway every
time it comes up," the
Mayor stated. Harris also
warned concerned
residents to "be ever on the
alert".
While a number of
residents. including Toron-
to Ward 9 alderman
Dorothy Thomas, spoke out
against an expressway,
Controller Faubert maim
twined that the expressway
was not the topic under
discussion. But residents
believe that the corridor
will be used for an ex-
pressway
"•Anyone who believes
that another transit line
will be constricted next to
the existing GO system is
deluding himself" Alder-
man Thomas argued.
Thomas also pointed out
that holding the land along
the right-of-way for
another 10 to 2D yams is
sterilizing the land and los-
ing assessment donors for
Metro.
In 1978, the Ontario
Municipal Board turned
down a request by Metro to
be allowed to spend some
$21 million to purchase the
lands it needed to complete
the corridor ( Metro
presently owns two-thirds
of the corridor).
According to the OMB
decision, spending the
money was premature
because Metro did not
know then what the lands
would be used for. Ex-
pressway opponents claim
Metro still has not decided
what to put in the corridor
although Roads Commis-
$3 Million Impact
Study Should Be Public
A study of the impact of
going to market value
assessment in Metro
Toronto cost taxpayers
over $3 million and should
be made public according
to Scarborough politicians.
Borough politicians want
to see for themselves how
the findings of the Assess-
ment Impact Study would
affect their municipality.
However, the provincial
government has, to date,
refused to make the study
public although sections of
the study have been leaked
to a number of City of
Toronto politicians.
At last week's meeting,
Scarborough Council voted
unanimously to request the
provincial government to
release the report. Scar-
borough's resolution will be
circulated to other area
municipalities for their
The am most affected if
Metro implemented
market value assessment
would be the city of Toron-
to.
Controller Card Rtddell
says it is time that Scar-
borough homeowners stop-
ped having to subsidize
Toronto taxpayers. "The
province has once again
chickened out in face of ob-
jections from Toronto
M.P.P.'s" Ruddell told
Council.
Although some Scar-
borough residents,
especially those in older
areas of the borough would
have to pay a little more in
taxes, many others would
pay less.
This is especially true for
those in newer homes north
of the 401. Market Value
Assessment would treat
everyone fairly says Alder-
man Joe DeKort.
"If the Province isn't go-
ing to make everyone pay
their fair share, then they
should reduce the load of
those who have been pay-
ing too much over the last
eight years."

Waste Oil Disposal
Doing your own oil changes is a good way to
save money, but please give attention to pro-
per disposal of the waste oil. ,
DO NOT dump waste oil down drains, catch
basins or sewers, or put it out with regular
household garbage. This type of disposal
causes pollution and is contrary to municipal
by-laws.
Waste oil may be disposed of at the
Ellesmere Yard Recycling Centre located on
Midland Avenue north of Ellesmere Road.
The Recycling Centre is open 24 hours a day,
seven days a week. Your local service station
may also accept small quantities of waste

North York
Board of
Education
TELEPHONE UPDATE
Telephone operators at
the North York Board of
Education building at 5050
Yonge St. will no longer be
using the old plug in switch
boards that were popular in
old movies.
School trustees have
decided to update the
telephone system at the
board by this June. The
new system is expected to
save about f209,000 over
the next five years.
SINGLE MOTHERS PRO-
GRAM
West Indian single
mothers on social
assistance can increase
their education free of
charge -
The North York Board of
Education and the Metro
YWCA are offering classes
in reading, writing and
speaking skills. The classes
will be held Tuesdays.
Wednesdays, and
Thursdays from 9:30 a.m.
to 11:30 a.m. at the
Firgrove Public School at
270 Firgrove St_ in
Downsview.
Staff frau the .North York
school system and the
YWCA will try to introduce
women to Canadian society
and customs. They will also
deal with solving social
problems.
Registration information
is available from Denise
Jeffers of the YWCA's
Focus On Change Group.
SUMMER SCHOOL FEES
With summer on the way,
the minds of students may
not be turning to thoughts
of summer school, but
school trustees' minds are.
Trustees voted 10-4 to
keep fees for summer
school programs at $l per
hour. Last year, the North
York school board in-
troduced the fees for non-
credit classes for the first
time. Since then, many
other school boards have
done the same thing.
Trustee Errol Young was
concerned the fee ($40-$60 a
course) would stop many
people on unemplopyment
or welfare from taking the
classes. He asked the board
to drop the fee for people in
this position.
Many trustees agreed
with Young and expressed
their concern. However,
they wanted more informa-
tion on what the dropping
of the fees would cost the
school board.
Trustee Young's idea will
be brought before the
board with the information
asked for at the regular
board meeting on March
23.
sioner Sam Cass has
publicly stated his
preference for an ex-
pressway.
Scarborough Board of
Control also approved the
concept of a joint study by
Scarborough and Metro, to
be completed within the
next three years, to decide
the future uses of the cor-
ridor.
The recommendations of
Board of Control will now
go on to council where a
lengthy debate is expected.
But one Scarborough
alderman is not waiting for
Council. Alderman Barry
Christensen, has arranged,
along with Toronto Alder-
man Dorothy Thomas, a
public meeting to discuss
with concerned residents
current attempts to resur-
rect the Scarborough Ex-
pressway.
The meeting will be held

With some 50 countries in
the Commonwealth plus 29

would eliminate
discrimination against im-

Centennial Rouge United Church
by Millis Hull
Continuing on the theme
Of the temptation in the
wilderness Rev. Butler en-
titled his sermon A Time of
Testing. The Greek word
used for temptation
translates to test and so it
was rather a time of testing
�texperienced in�
He did not actually talk to
the devil but wrested in his
own mind with the task that
was before Him and
naturally he chose the one
which led to His death on
the cross. We, too, are
tested day by day and week
by week in our jobs, in our
choices of pleasure, etc.
Some seek to use a natural
charm or good looks with
which to gain their desired
goals; however, it is only
through being true to
ourselves and our fellow
man that we can achieve
the highest that is in us.
Let us come through our
tests to the best of our abili-
ty and try with all that we
have to do what is right
with help from aur God.
Next Sunday new
members will be received
into our church fellowship
and the following week,
Palm Sunday, the Sacra-
ment of Communion will be
observed.
On Good Friday, West Hill
United Church has invited
us to participate with them
in their 11 a.m. service with
joint choirs and congrega-
tions. It is helped many
from Centennial Rouge will
participate.
Weare happy to have new
people worshipping with us
almost every Sunday and
extend a sincere invitation
to any in the community
who have no special con-
gregation to visit with us.
We do try to be friendly to
all newcomers and hope
YOU may choose us as your
family church. There are
nursery facilities for in-
fants under three and Sun-
day School classes for
three and up. Why not give
us a try?

For most of us, modern

Ptosis of the abdomen,

After all, the entire multi-
million dollar diet and
weight -loss industry has
been banking on this
phenomenon for years.
When reducing calories in
order to control weight, it is
especially important to in-
sure that the body is still
being properly nourished
with adequate supplies of
vitamins, minerals and
other essentials of the diet.
Skipping meals or adher-
ing to "fad" diets will
seldom be beneficial to a
weight kiss programme. If
in doubt about proper
weight loss methods, it is
always best to seek the ad-
vice of a qualified health
professional.

It's the Irish Coffee creation!
A St. Patrick's Day celebration just isn't complete
without a hot glass of traditional Irish Coffee. This round -
the -year favorite combines Irish whiskey with one of
Canada's favorite beverages - coffee. Canadians drink an
average of two cups of coffee each day. That adds up to
over 15 billion cups a year!
To make a perfect cup of I rish Coffee the expert brew -

Homemade Easter Eggs Fun Family Project
Colorfully decorated East
Eggs can be an inexpensiv
fun project the whole family can
enjoy and can be made using
Club House food color, Cake
Mate Decorations and odds and
ends from around the house.
Or for a special Easter treat,
make horndm ide chocolate dipped
eggs with a simple uncooked
fondant recipe.
The first step in dying Easter
Eggs is to hard -cook the appro-
priate number of eggs. Choose
eggs that are clean and smooth
and select containers that will
hold enough liquid to cover an
egg without overflowing. Pour
boiling water into the container
and for each teaspoon of Club
House food color, stir in 2 tea-
spoons of vinegar to sot the
color. The intensity of the color
depends upon the amount of
food color added to the boiling
water.
Dip the hot, hard -cooked eggs
into the dye (a slotted spoon or
tongs are good utensils to use to
immerse and remove eggs).
When an egg has reached the in-
tensity of color desired, remove
to a wire rack to dry and cool.
Put a piece of waxed paper under
the rack to catch any drops of
color that drop from the eggs.
After dying several eggs, the
color won't be as intense. Add
more color to the water and stir.
In addition to red, gran, yellow
and blue, other colors may be
blended by using the chart on
the back of the Club House
food color box.
After the eggs are cool enough
to handle, you can make fancy
eggs by gluing scraps of lace,
rick rack, or braid to the col-
ored eggs. White glue or rubber
cement works well as an adhesive.
To make a polka dot egg that
has texture and dimension use
Cake Mate Cinnamon Decors
and Silver Decors. Other dyed
eggs may be given designs with
glue and then dusted with Cake
Mate Crystals, Rainbow Decors
or Chocolate Decors.
Chocolate Covered Fondant
Easter Eggs
I tsp. Club House vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter
lit tsp. salt
2/3 cup sweetened condensed
milk
5-1/2 cups sifted icing sugar
3 - 4 drops of Club House yellow
food color
1/2 lb. semi -sweet chocolate

and salt. Add condensed milk

duaLly stir in King sugar. Mix.
tore will became very stiff —
thm knead until all icing sugar
a cotmbmed. Knead fondant on
board for several nunuies, vatd
mixture is smooth but act sticky.
Cut off 1/3 of the fondant and
add a few drops of Club House
Yellow food color for yolks.
Knead until color is evenly
blended. Cut into 10 portions
and roll into balls for the center
of the egg.
Cut remaining fondant into 10
equal portions and pat out flat,
then mold around egg yolk and
imo elongated egg -shape. Chill
for a short time, then if neces-
sary, remodel gently. Chill for
several hours or overnight.
Melt chocolate slowly in double
boiler over Hot (not boiling)
water. Remove from heat. Dip
bottom half of egg in chocolate
using kitchen tongs. Let drip
for a moment, then turn it over
and place on waxed paper for
chocolate to harden — choco-
late side up. Dip other side in
chocolate; let drip a moment
and place on waxed paper with
the soft chocolate side up to
harden.
When chocolate has hardened,
decorate with Cake Mate De-
corating Icing.
Makes: 10 (3 - oz) eggs.
Aging Cats & Dogs
Aged dogs and cats suffer
more from the cold

Despite the mild winter
and event thought there's no
snow, the maple syrup
season is now upon us. At
Purple Woods Camerva-
tion Arra, the maple trees
have been tapped for a cow
ple of weeks and the
evaporator is fired up to
boil down the sap. In fact,
we have already produced
several gallons of pure -ex-
tra fight" maple syrup.
This is the seventh year
for the maple syrup
demonstration, and it just
seems to be getting more
popular all the time. Dur-
ing March and April, close
to 5,000 school children will
be attending tours ( all
openings are now booked).
Purple Woods Conserva-
tion Area is located on the
loth Concession Road
(Oshawa) immediately
east of Siuncoe Street, north
of Raglan.
If you would like to find
out how we make our
delicious syrup ( and
perhaps even buy some),
why not visit the sugar
bush for a guided tour? The
public is invited to attend
on the weekends of March
19 - 20 and March 26 - 27, as
well as during the week of
March 21 to 25. Community
groups who would like to
arrange a tour must con-
tact the Authority office at
(416) 579-0411. Special ar-
rangements can be made
for disabled individuals or
groups. Authority staff will
illustrate Indian, pioneer
and modern methods of
producing maple syrup.
Tours will meet at the area
parking lot at 11 a.m. and 1
p.m. Fresh maple syrup
produced at the sugar bush
will be sold as it is
available, at $8.50 per litre
and $5.25 per half litre.
As usual, the Durham
A.M. Kiwanis Club will be
assisting the Authority
with a pancake weekend on
April 9.10, 1963. Tours will
be conducted every 20
minutes from 9:20 a.m. to 3
p.m. The ever -popular
pony -drawn wagon rkles
will be available for
children at a cost of 50t
each. And, of course,
maple syrup and pancakes
will be sold. There is no
charge for admission,
parking or guided tours.
For more information,
please contact the Central
Lake Ontario Conservation
Authority at (416) 579-0411.

Council
Report
from r
Norah Stoner,'
Pickering Regional
Councillor Ward 3
A new service is operating in Pickering. The Durham Con-
servation Centre opened its doors in Brougham a few weeks
ago. The Centre is funded by the Federal Government and
its purpose is to establish a weatherization and recycling
program. The term "weatherize" means such things as
sealing cracks and making minor changes to cut energy
costs.
The initial project is to weatherize municipal buildings
and low income senior citizen private homes - labour free.
At fust, the Centre's staff will concentrate on buildings in
Pickering, north of Highway 2 and will eventually extend
the service to other parts of Pickering, Ajax and Whitby.
The fust buildings to receive the service are the Green
River, Claremont and Brougham Community Centres.
For residents, the labour aspect is free and material costs
can be reimbursed through a CHIP grant. If you are a low
income senior or if you know of some people who might be
in need of this service, call Gail Lawlor at 683-4341 between
8:30 and 4:30, Monday through to Friday.
Future projects for the Centre include recycling depots,
and the creation of a resource centre. In the meantime, a
wealth of information on reducing energy costs is available
to the public at the Centre. Call 683-4341 for directions.
Ambulance Service for Pickering residents has been a
concern for quite a while. Council just received a draft
report from the Durham Health Council. The goal is a more
effective and efficient service for both Ajax and Pickering.
Right now Pickering has an ambulance stationed at the fire
hall at Brock and Bayly from 9 to 5 Monday through Friday,
a full time 24 hour a day, 7 days a week ambulance at the
Ajax Hospital and a 10 a.m. to6 p.m. service at thehospital.
The Health Council's reorganization proposal would see
the 24 hour, 7 day service and the 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday
to Friday service relocated to Church Street, north of
Highway 401 and managed by the Whitby Ambulance Ser-
vice. There would be a $75.1100 saving which could be
allocated to such things as:
- upgrading of existing ambulance personnel
- subsidizing Citizen CPR through Durham Save a Heart
- Equipping ambulances for prehospital cardiac care
The relocation would have to take into consideration the
proposed closing of the 401 Church Street interchange and
the opening of the 401 Westney Road interchange.
The Durham Health Council is to be complemented on
their draft report. I'm sure they will receive many com-
ments before a final decision is made. Anyone wishing a
copy of the report, please call me at 683-3589 ( my home) or
68:34160. the Council Office.

Report
from
Queen's E
Park �.
By George Ashe, MPP Durham West.
This week, I would like to discuss an interesting publica-
tion which recently arrived in my office. The publication to
which I am referring, "Ontario Families", is published by
the Ontario Secretariat for Social Development.
"Join Our Celebration - May Is Family Unity Month" is
the headline of the current issue which includes a number of
suggestions to assist in the planning of family-oriented ac-
tivities.
The theme of this month-long celebration is "Invest Time
in Your Family" and family members are encouraged to
strengthen their lives by setting aside time to participate in
meaningful activities together.
The Provincial Government acknowledges the special role
that the family plays in our society and has proclaimed
"Family Unity Month" in recognition of the many contribu-
tions that the family makes to the well-being of com-
munities throughout Ontario.
Ontario Government programs have been developed to
assist and support the family unit in coping with the
pressures of everyday living.
The Ministry of Community and Social Services, for exam-
ple, funds credit counselling agencies to assist families in
coping with financial difficulties. This Ministry also spon-
sors the Parent Relief Program to provide emotional and
financial support to families with developmentally han-
dicapped children.
The Ministry of Education encourages all School Boards in
the province to provide Family Life Study courses which
focus on the maintainance and strengthening of the family
unit.
The Ministry of Health recently announced the expansion
of the Chromic Home Care Program which will enable pa-
tients to spend more of their recovery tune in their homes
with the support of family members.
One of the goals of the Seniors Secretariat, which was
established -in January, 1962 is to enhance the independence
of elderly fancily members by providing access to informa-
tion about programs and services of interest to them.
The current economic a ncertainity has added to the
pressures on all Ontarians, but I am certain that the family
unit will continue to adapt toaddress the challenges of these
charging times.
VIEWPOINTS by Ralph Bradley
On the issue of the reassessment of properties in the Town
of Pickering to market value for the purposes of taxation,
the council is like a blindfolded person walking towards a
steep cliff with no one willing to wam of the danger ahead.
Re awAssme it to market value has become the latest
political siren song of those who want to see all residential
properties assessed to a higher value, ostensibly because it
is supposed to be '-fairer".
Recently, on a motion by Councillors Cahill and Kitchen,
the town council requested the Minister of Revenue to
prepare a study of the various classes of property in the
town to determine if assessment inequalities exist.
This, of course. is nonsense. Certainly some inequities ex-
ist, and will continue to exist to the end of time until the
Perfect system of property taxation is created. When that
happens the governments will probably own everything like
Russia, or we'll have to mortgage our houses to the hilt
merely to pay for the army of bureaucrats the 'perfect'
system will need to search out every little infraction.
This study of alleged inequities in assessment is simply a
way of letting the "camel get his head in the door of the
tent", thus leading in the future to a town -wide re-
assessment of residential properties. Almost without ex-
ception, wherever this has taken place a dramatic increase
in residential taxes has followed.
The prevailing system of assessment is based on property
values which at that time were stable and when a building
dollar represented true value. Market value re -assessment
must relate its values to those in recent years that have
fluctuated wildly and more often than not have absolutely
no relationship to the true value of a property.
Governments, including municipal oma, create no wealth.
Reassessment to market value of our houses is being
touted as the panacea for otr taxation ills, but in reality will
end up simply being another way to increase taxes with vir-
tually no corresponding increase a in services.
As it stands right now, the residential property owner is
contributing 83 cents out of every tax dollar raised. The
ideal situation would be to have the homeowner contribute
approximately 6o cents, aid industries of which there are
not enough in Pickering, contributing the balance.
Would it not matte more sense to be searching out for new
industry to locate in the town and help correct the serious
imbalance in our industrial -residential tax ratio, rather
than finding ways to increase the load on the already over-
burdened taxpayer?
