Council OK's Program Money
by Ralph Bradley
A decision made in
January of this year by the
Pickering Town Council to
participate in a make-work
program called the
Canada: Ontario Employ-
ment Development Pro-
gram came back for in-
tense discussion at Monday
evening's meeting of the
Executive Committee.
Cost of the contribution re-
quested from the taxpayers
of Pickering had almost
doubled from $34,767 to
$65,609 in the few months
since approval, and the in-
creased cost sparked a
spirited questioning by
council.
Councillor Alex Robertson
said, "I don't see why our
taxpayers should subsidize
a labour intensive program
conducted by the federal
and provincial govern-
ments. It was clearly
understood at the outset
that the town would not

Purpose of the program
has been to provide
employment through the
Pickering Works Depart-
ment, the Clerk's Depart-
ment, and the building of
the community centre in
Whitevale, for environmen-
tal improvements, open
space improvements, and
the Whitevale restoration

B.C. Elections
It is rather interesting to see that citizens of British Colum-
bia have decided in favour of the Social Credit Party in-
stead of the New Democrats at a time when there is much
unemployment and distress economically.
B.C. is known to have a large number of trade unionists
grouped in large trade groups which could affect elections.
But it is obvious that not all trade unionists are convinced
that the NDP has the answers to the economic problems of
The Gallup polls of recent date also suggest that voters in
this country are not turning to the easy solutions provided
by the NDP but are becoming more realistic about the
economics of Canada. Who the leader of a political party is
appears to be a lesser question in the minds of people - in
fact there seems to be an earnest searching for a party
whose policies tackle the problems of today .. and tomor-
row.
At Ottawa the NDP has urged the government to spend
many billions more from the federal budget, i.e. from bor-
rowed money from the future, to help unemployment. We
believe this would be a most wasteful way of tackling the
current unemployment situation, and the voters of B -C. ap-
pear to back the more private enterprise method of
creating jobs, not just "making work".
Bob's Notes
Aid To Third World
Prime Minister Trudeau has come out again about finan-
cial aid to the "third world" as an important step in restor-
ing the economics of the western world and we don't buy
that idea at all. The PM seems to want we Canadians to go
into debt giving or loaning money to far-off countries where
corruption and rotten governments insure that the value of
the loans hardly gets to the poor people whom we are trying
to
In our opinion, we should help only regimes which allow us
to control the use of the money and no money should go to
any governments which are Marxist dictatorship, leftist or
commurust. There is no point handing out our borrowed
money to pour into a third world country if the result is just
to support some corrupt regime and not the people.
We would be of more value to the third world if our
economy was so good that we could afford ( not with borrow-
ed money ) to assist the people and not the governments.
Parking Equality
Scarborough Council is going to begin a parking charge for
parking at the Scarborough Civic Centre with rates of 509
an hour and $is a month for employees. The money is sup
posed to pay for the $70.000 required for electric gates to
handle the parking fees.
As council has decreed that only 50% perking can be pro-
vided for employees all over the town centre site in order to
ensure that half the people use transit, there is going to be a
tremendous shortage of parking space and the council is in-
stalling this new system to defend its land against adjacent
buildings' employee parking.
However, we have learned that the members of Scar-
borough Council and top officials, who currently have ex-
clusive rights to parking underneath the centre, will con-
tinue to exert those privileges - and at no cost of parking.
In our opinion, top officials and our elected represen-
tatives should be required to pay $15 (or more) a month for
the privilege of parking which they enjoy. If taxpayers have
to contribute more, so should the top brass.
Radar Traps Again
We haven't commented on radar traps for some years.
mainly because the police radar traps have been reduced
considerably. But now a new idea has surfaced in the form
of a large sign on top of cruisers with large electronic
numbers which indicate the speed at which you are driving.
According to the police, this device will alert drivers faster
about their speed and warnings are more likely to be given
to drivers than those aggravating costly tickets. That
sounds like a good idea.
We notice, though, late at night along Sheppard Ave. E.
between Brimley Rd. and Markham Rd. that an unmarked
car has taken to surveying traffic with a radar device, and
we wonder why? As yet the officer hasn't jumped oui to stop
a vehicle that we have observed.
Worth Seeing
This Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the first
Ideal Home, Leisure and Life Style Show will be held at the
Scarborough Centennial Arena, 1967 Ellesmere Rd., just
west of Markham Rd. Open 5 to to p.m. on Thurs. and Fri.,
10 a.m. to 10 p.rn on Sat. and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday,
this array of interesting exhibits should appeal to everyone
in the community. There's free parking and the admission
is $3.

Posture
Week '83
Each year, during the
first week of May, Cana-
dian Chiropractors take to
the shopping malls, com-
munity centres and
libraries to remind us of
the importance of proper
posture to our health.
The chiropractic profes-
sion advises us that by pay-
ing attention to our posture
today, some of our most
common health problems
can be cured or controlled
In addition, by practising
good postural habits, many
future problems are avoid-
ed.
Ideally, good posture
means maximum efficien-
cy and support of all body
parts, the smooth coor-
dinated functioning of all
body organs and systems.
It means improved cir-
culation and digestion and
enhanced ability to per-
form daily activities and
tasks without undue
fatigue; it means fewer
backaches, headaches,
sciaticas, slipped discs,
knee, ankle and foot pro-
blems, fewer digestive and
circulatory disturbances
and a better night's sleep.
Good posture helps us in
everything we do — work-
ing, playing, even resting.

Committee To
Investigate Criticism
by Gay Abbate
Scarborough's Building,
Fire and Legislation Com-
mittee wants to put to rest
once and for all the
negative criticism of the
borough's Animal Control
Centre by both the public
and some members of
Council.
At its meeting on Mon.
May 9th, the committee
passed a motion recom-
mending that Scarborough
Council request the Ueute-
nant Governor to order the
Ministry of Agriculture to
carry out a full investiag-
tion of the Aniahal Control
This recomrneiidation will
go to Board of Control and
on to Council.
The resolution, introduced
by Controller Frank
Faubert, resulted from a
column written by Can-
trolkr Joyce Trimmer in a
local paper in which she
criticized the committee
for its actions at a recent
night meeting held
specifically to hear fust -
hand complaints about
Scarborough's animal
pound. The committee
voted to take no action at
that meeting.
However, since then,
Trimmer's article as well
as numerous complaints
from the public, has led the
committee members to
agree that the only way of
resolving the situation is by
taking immediate action.
Alderman Edith Mon-
tgomery said that the
pound is a council respon-
sibility and therefore the
study should be done by
council.
But other members felt
that since there is a great
deal of distrust of council
already the public would
not accept an investigation
done in-house.
Controller Frank Faubert
believes the investigation
will find no Controller
Frank Faubert believes the
investigation will find no
fault with the animal cen-
tre and, he says, he expects
a public apology from all
those critics who have
unaligned both the commit-
tee and the director of the
pound, Mr. C. Hughes.
A "trial by press" has
been taking place Con-
troller Faubert told the
Committee.
Mr. Hughes says he also
welcomes the investiga-
tion. "We've been unfairly
criticized. Our intent has
always been to do the best
we can for our animals."
Committee chairman
Barry Christensen, who at
the night meeting voted
against setting up a special
committee to review the
entire operation, says he
supports the independent
investigation because the
credibility of himself as
chairman and that of the
committee itself has been
questioned publicly.
The investigation, he
says, will reveal that the
committee has not been
guilty of whitewashing and
covering up for staff's
mistakes.
Fitness Luncheon
Thurs. May 19th
In the final event of the week, the Executive Fitness L»n-
cheon will see many celebrities on hand.
Don Farquharson, President of the World Association Of
Veteran Athletes; Vanessa Harwood, principal ballerina,
National Ballet of Canada; Russ 1Kisby, President of Par-
ticipation; Gord Smith, Director of Fitness Ontario; Angela
Taylor, world champion sprinter; Sue Johnson,
physiotherapist at the Sports Medicine Clinic of Scar-
borough General Hospital and Dr. Jim Rathbun, orthopedic
surgeon at the same clinic will all be among the head table
gam.
The lur cheon is at the Howard Johnson's Hotel, Markham
Rd. & 401, from 12 to 2 p.m. The cost is $lo per person. The
menu will be selected by Bev. Musten, nutritionist at the

VIEWPOINTSby Ralph Bradley
In my humble opinion as a "little guy" business person it
is time that some comment is made concerning the almost
total commercial economic monopoly that one corporation,
namely J.D.S. Investments Ltd., has on the designated cen-
tral core of the Town of Pickering.
It is now impossible to rent a property or space to do
business with the public of Pickering without recourse to
the goodwill of J.D.S. Investments, and God help you if you
don't fit into its subjective judgment of what's appropriate.
Having recently experienced an appalling bad faith in
negotiating a lease for office space, I know first hand what
it is to deal with a powerful monopoly in business.
The company owns Sheridan Mall, the Corporate Centre
office building, the Hub Mall, as well as sections of land that
will determine significantly the nature of the growth of this
community; in effect, it has an ironclad grip on the central
core of this community. If anyone thinks that's healthy for a
town then they need a primer course on the economic
realities and political influence by the wealthy and power-
ful.
Not for one minute am I gainsaying the benefit to Picker-
ing that its investment of risk capital has brought to this
town in the form of goods and services. It has created
employment and helped the growth of the town. Nor am I
unmindful of the helping hand to charity by allowing access
to the public in Sheridan Mall by these bodies, yet really no
big deal for a wealthy corporation.
However, experience shows that when this kind of com-
mercial monopoly is allowed to grow by successive councils
it bodes ill for the viability of a community. A town needs
variety of choice in its business life, an opportunity for
small businesses to have an option they can go to. We need
competition in rental space, we need competition and not
the stifling of it, otherwise the public gets shortchanged.
The deleterious effect on the public interest by this concen-
tration of power was demonstrated recently when the
development of an alternative mall on TeePee Drive -In site
was proposed. The parties concerned had to seriously
diminish the economic potential of their project because of
the representations of J.D.S. Investments. And what will
happen when they may next want to change the plan for the
centre core by adding more apartments'
We need alternative commercial development in Picker-
ing, and we need it badly.

ON YOUR TOES:-
Life
OES:Life is good again; the Na-
tional Ballet's back at The
O'Keefe. The opening at-
traction is the venerable
and well loved Swan Lake.
Like most balletomanes we
have quite frankly lost
count of the number of
times we have seen it. Yet
it remains one of our
favourites and any assess-
ment of a performance can
be expressed only by our
degree of enjoyment.
We were at the Friday
everting performance and
it's our sad duty to report
that while we enjoyed it,
there have been others we
have enjoyed more. It
seemed to us that the com-
pany exhibited a singular
lack of vitality and perhaps
even some carelessness.
One young lady of the
corps actually fell and it
seemed to us that the prin-
cipal male stumbled at one
point. There's not a damn-
ed thing the matter with
that, of course, and we
repeat for the umpteenth
time our wonderment that
it does not happen more
often. Still in a company
notable for its excellence
such minor faults are
magnified.
It should also be pointed

places to go
out that the company was
competing with a Friday
night O'Keefe audience and
this could well have thrown
off concentration. Several
times well intentioned
yahoos applauded before
the end of a movement and
even where no applause is
called for. And, when oh
when, will they ever learn
the difference between
bravo, brava and bravi!
What lifted the evening
out of the ordinary and into
excellence were the perfor-
mances of the two prin-
cipals.
The young American
Patrick Bissell danced the
prince as though he might
have been born to the role.
He is tall and exudes
strength but he also
displays the carriage and
line of royalty.
Yet, one is aware that he
is young and this adds to
the poignancy of his love
for the Swan Queen. Also
noteworthy is his petulance
rather than anger toward
his imperious mother
( done nicely by Charmain
Turner) .
Still these are evidences of
his histrionic ability. What
about the terpsichorean?
Magnificent might be too
powerful a word to
describe them but one is
not too far off the mart in
ascribing the ward "as-
tounding..' Rarely has one
witnessed such repeated
SYS of loft.
As well, his height and
strength compared to the
thistledown that is Karen
Kain (watched proudly by
her fiancE Ross Petty
seated just ahead of us)
produced a quite astoun-
ding display of ef-
fortlessness. He seem to
lift a ballerina as easily as
many mei lift a glass of
sparkling champagne in
toast to a beautiful woman.
Karen Kain in the difficult
Odette. Odile tole quite en-
tranced and made it easy to
understand the prince's
love for her as both.
Technically the flash of her
fouettks are matched only
by the tranquillity of her
porte en bras.
Individually these two fine
dancers are a joy. Together
they are a celebration as
they extend each other -
figuratively that is - to
higher heights.
You know it just might be
that our ennui over the per-
formance of the rest of the
company was caused by
the excellence of these two.
If so, we offer our apologies
to the company and, of
course, we offer our bravi
to Miss Kain and Mister
Bissell with an individual
bravo for Peter Ottman
and his contribution to the
first act pas de trois.
IN PRINT:
We understand that
Ripley's Believe It Or Not
has made its way to Televi-
sion. If that's so, one
wonders what took it so
long. B.I.O.N. has been a
popular favourite for
decades and there seems
no evidence of lessening
popularity.
Accordingly we offer the
B.I.O.N. BOOK OF
CHANCE ( Collins) . It's a
collection of illustrated
facts and anecdotes poin-
ting up the incredible laws
of chance and hap-
penstance. Easy reading
for the back yard or in tran-
sit, even for just before
retiring.
We are particularly taken
by the experience of one
James Price. It seems he
was fishing in Bull Shoals
Lake, Arkansas when he
lost his dentures over
board. He got them back 10
days later when he caught
a 20 pound catfish that
swallowed them'
Bull Shoals? Sounds more
like something that's ex-
pressed m Latin as Bovine
Excreta. ( Sorry Collins,
we're only fooling'. It's
really an excellent book.)

NOTEBOOK:
Circle the dates Juste 1st
to June 4th on your calen-
dar right novo. That's when
the Peking National
Acrobats will be paying a
visit to The O'Keefe.
We iintend to tell you more
about them in the next few
weeks but for now, take it
from us that this just might
be one of the most spec-
tacular shows to play
Toronto this year.
The 36 young nen and
women of the troupe are
the very best that China
has to offer. Trained from
childhood to dympic status
they perform feats that as-
tound and amaze. Keep
watching here for more
details.
Buddy Rich and his or-
chestra opens next Tues
day at the Imperial Room
with special guest Joe
Williams. Frankly we can
take or leave Mr. Rich. We
find him rather a boor and
have always felt that Cliff
Leeman is a far superior
drummer.
But, Joe Williams .. Pro-
bably the last of the big
band singers, he can get
more out of a song than
most people think possible.
Well worth a visit to the Im-
perial Room just to hear
and enjoy Joe Williams.
This Monday the public is
invited to the unveiling of a
special sculptured bronze
.bust honouring Mary
Pickford. The unveiling is
at 1 p.m. and takes place on
the grounds of the Hospital
For Sidi Children.
Apart from honouring
Miss Pickford it's a chance
for you to meet Buddy
Rogers, to our mind one of
the last of the real
Hollywood stars. We had
the pleasure of meeting
him a few years ago at the
Variety Club and found him
to be everything one ex-
pects a movie star should
be. A fine gentleman.

PICKERING RECREATION BLDG.
In September, Pickering's new recreation complex is
opening. It will have arts and craft rooms, a fitness area
and warm-up track, squash, raquetball, and tennis courts,
a swimming pool, and an arena. Most important of all is it
will be accessible to the disabled. There is a dry ramp for
the pool an elevator to the second floor, ramps throughout
the building, and no curbs.
above-mentioned and the physically disabled in our area.
This group could ascertain the needs of Pickering as well as
outlining a course for the future.
Integration is important. Where would Pickering's
physically disabled like to see integration? To be more
specific, in which programs? We could start from there.
Transportation is a problem. Handy -Trans can be
chartered for activities, and the Jaycees can give financial
support. Have we athletes interested in Regional or Provin-
cial Competition? Equipment and facilities could be
available for training and between the Jaycees and the new
"Elite Athlete" program which could possibly start soon,
coaching will be available. There has been a tremendous
amount of research date for the physically disabled in the
Pickering area, now is the time to start implementation.
If you are interested, please call me anytime: Dawn
Gadsden (bus.) 683-2760 or (res.) 839-1685.

Having an accessible facility in Pickering and not utilizing
it to its fullest potential would be a waste. Through the
Pickering Frenchman's Bay Jaycees and the Pickering
Parks and Recreation Department we aim to take full ad-
vantage of the accessible facilities. Our ideal situation
would be to see a core group established consisting of the
PROPOSED HIGHWAY STUDY
The Ministry of Transportation and Communications
(M.T.C.) has initiated a study to examine potential im-
provements to Highway 401, from immediately east of
Highway 48 (Markham Road)• in the Borough of Scarborough.
easterly to Brock Road in the Town of Pickering. District 6,
Toronto. Length - 15 km.
This study shall identify the provincial highway im-
provements required to accommodate existing and future
traffic demands on Highway 401.
Subject to the final outcome of the study. the Ministry of
Transportation and Communications is currently proposing
to increase the capacity of this section of Highway 401 by
providing a core -collector system to create a basic 12 lane
configuration. The existing interchanges will be appropriate-
ly upgraded as part of this project.
This study will follow a planning process which has been
approved under the Environmental Assessment Act, 1975.
This approval requires that an Environmental Study Report
be filed with the Ministry of the Environment (M.O.E) prior to
construction. Public notification of the availability of this
report will be made at the time it is sent to M.O.E.
Since projects of this type normally result in predictable,
relatively minor environmental impacts, and since en-
vironmental controls are provided for in the approved plann-
ing process. no individual approval of this protect by the
M.O E is required. However. if serious environmental con-
cerns exist, any member of the public, pubic group. Ministry,
agency or municipality may request to the Minister of the En-
vironment that this project be subject to the formal Govern-
ment and public review and approval under the E-A. Act and
be subject to a hearing if necessary.
Information Centres will be held as the study progresses.
M.T.C. would appreciate any comments or concerns you or
your organization may have on this project by June 30, 1983.

A PERSPECTIVE ON ACID RAIN
With increasing concern about the acid rain issue, the need
for public dialogue is at hand; acid rain is one of the most
pressing environmental issues facing widespread areas of
North America, Europe and Scandinavia today. Scientists
know acidic precipitation is having severe ecological ef-
fects on the natural environment, particularly lakes and
fisheries; on man-made structures and buildings. There is
considerable evidence to support the premise that if the
current trend continues, the growth of forests and crops and
even human health may be adversely affected.
More than a dozen countries and international agencies
are searching for causes and cures for acid rain; the Cana-
dian and United States governments have long been work-
ing toward a bilateral agreement designed to "develop
measures to control transboundary pollution" and on April
29th. a major step was taken as a Memorandum of
Understanding between the Province of Ontario and the
State of New York was signed. Its purpose is to combat the
present and future effects of transboundary air pollution -
in particular. acid rain. The Memorandum will lead to stan-
dardization of methods and procedures used for sampling
and laboratory analysis, the free exchange of scientific in-
formation, and the opportunity for joint scientific research,
thus eliminating duplication of cost and effort for both
jurisdictions and increasing our mutual effectiveness in our
struggle against acid rain.
WHAT HAVE WE DONE SO FAR?
Under the Ontario Ministry of the Environment's program
of air pollution control, begun in 1968, air quality in major
cities has been greatly improved. This successful reduction
of pollutants is a consequence of Ontario's practice of re-
quiring regulatory approvals for each industry planning to
build or expand. Metro Toronto's public transportation
system, which serves more than one-quarter of the popula-
tion of the Province, is largely electrically operated by
street -cats, subway trains and trolly buses which do not
pollute the air. Coal bursting power plants are fitted with
stack gas "scrubbers" to reduce further their emissions of
sulfur and nitrogen dioxide. A strong factor in controlling
SO2 emissions is Ontario Hydro's established practice of
demanding washed coal from ail suppliers. Alternative
energy sources such as nuclear plants. greater hydro
capacity generated through a stational power grid, the
potential use of garbage to replace up to 40% of the fuel now
used in cement kilns - are other options being considered.
Lime or limestone is being used to help reduce the acidity
and raise the pH of lakes which once again are becoming
excellent fishing grounds.
Acid precipitation is a serious social, ecological and
economic problem - perhaps the most serous problem of its
kind we have ever faced. But with government, scientists
and industry working together toward an understanding of
the phenomenon, the issue will be solved. Research efforts
are massive and expensive; no one expects the answers
soon. Acid Rain is still a puzzle. The spectres conjured up
by the term "Acid Rain" will, however, fade with each new
addition to our base of knowledge. There is hope. The pro-
blem will, and mast, be solved.
