Request Called Stupid
The Ajax -Pickering
Board of Trade recently
wrote to Pickering Council
requesting to have Brock
Rd. in Pickering renamed
to avoid confusion with a
second Brock St. in
Oshawa, less than ten
miles away, and both with
exits from Highway 401.
However, while the
Board of Trade
understands that requests
sent to council may not get
council's approval, they
take exception to Regional
Councillor Laurie Cahill
calling the requests "a
stupid recommendation".
The board of trade has
suggested renaming Brock
Rd to Pickering Rd. and
the president of the Ajax -
Pickering Board of Trade,
Heinz Raedisch, says that
many members, with
businesses on Brock Rd.,
are ready to change.

$3 Million
A federal contribution of nearly $3 million to build an
underpass carrying Brimley Road under the CNR tracks
was announced on Monday by Paul Cosgrove, Minister of
State for Finance, and David Weathalmd, MP for Scar-
borough West.
The project is among more than 100 included in the Special
Recovery Projects Program announced in Finance
Minister Marc Ialonde's April 19 budget.
The new program will have dual benefits, contributing to
economic recovery and employment during the next four
years while putting in place key facilities, equipment or
services.
The work involves construction of an underpass to carry
the four -lane road under the two existing tracks, while
allowing for four possible future tracks. An existing level
crossing will be eliminated.
Total cost is estimated at about $4.5 million. The balance
of over $1 million will be provided by the Borough of Scar-
borough.
Mr. Cosgrove made the announcement along with Scar-
borough West MP David Weatherhead. Paul Cosgrave said
that he had pushed in 1976 for the transportation grid to be
done in Metro and this underpass will assist in the move-
ment of people and goods. Without these projects, he said, it
won't be a "fantastic decade".
Of course, the Minister of State ( Finance) did not say if he
were for the Scarborough Expressway, which lies un -
mediately, south of this Brimiey-CNR underpass. However,
if Metro Toronto is to move its goods and people efficiently,
not only do public transit systems have to be built, but the
movement of cars and trucks must also be efficiently handl-
ed. That is why the Scarborough Expressway is necessary
to move vehicles - and their drivers - the best way and
remove the huge load on the Don Valley parkway for east -
baud traffic.
Mayor Harris concentrated his remarks on cooperation
with the federal government, saying that it was a "happy
relationship... He referred to the cooperative horsing of
which Scarborough has a big slice.
48% Up In Sales
The teal estate industry appears to be pulling itself out of

Canada by The Canadian Real Estate Association in-

The survey results confirm an uxxft ,ing optimism in the

Our government's budget has set two goals for Canada - to
ensure the current economic recovery takes hold and,
equally important, to see that this economic recovery is
durable.
To create the jobs Canadians need - good jobs, perman .i
jobs, satisfying jobs and well paid jobs - Finance Minis,_
Marc Lalonde outlined actions in his budget to take im-
mediate effect and actions geared to the longer term needs
of our economy.
In great part, these goals will be achieved through a $4.8
billion Special Recovery Program. Funding will be split
equally between immediate job creation plans by your na-
tional government, through capital works projects across
the country, and the provision of incentives for the private
sector.
Over the next four years $2.4 billion is slated for 100 major
undertakings across Canada, such as the recently announc-
ed projects at Har bourfront. These will provide the new and
expanded infrastructure to keep Canada competitive in the
years ahead.
They will include major investments in airports,
highways, and port facilities, as well as assets needed for
resource development and the purchase of ships and high
technology equipment.
The second component of our .'penial Recovery Program
is aimed at accelerating productive investment and job
creation in the private sector. The infusion of $2.4 billion of
investment incentives over the next four years clearly iden-
tifies the government's confidence in the private sector as
the engine of recovery.
The measures outlined in the budget are components of a
national drive for higher productivity and the expansion of
employment opportunities. These are important goals we
must all strive to achieve.
To assist in this, your government is proposing to develop
a national centre for productivity and employment growth.
It will be a place where labour, business and government
can meet to take a practical look at issues of mutual con-
cern and work to keep Canada a world competitor. Wor-
thwhile contributions made by labour and business during
prebudget consultations have encouraged the government
to believe that this partnership will work.
In the following weeks, I will outline the steps we are tak-
ing to support the housing sector, measures to aid the con-
sumer and low income Canadians, actions to create jobs,
support for Canada's young people and the stimulative tax
incentives to aid the small business owner along with addi-
tional measures to drive the recovery engine forward.
As the Minister of Finance has himself said, only when
business can get back to business, can Canadian workers
get back to work.

Report From -
Tom Wells
MPP Scarborough North
Measures to abate jobs, spur consumer spending, help
small business and stimulate investment are the main
thrusts of the budget which Treasurer Frank Miller in-
troduced in the House an May 10.
It is our Government's objective to assist the private sec-
tor take full advantage of the economic recovery which is
now beginning to take place. We believe that only private
enterprise can undertake the investments and create the
permanent jobs upon which prosperity depends.
While inflation has slowed considerably and there has
been a significant decline in interest rates, unemployment
continues to be a concern. The budget has set aside $242
million so that a projected 76,000 temporary jobs can be
created. Last year's budget provided in excess of $170
million for this purpose with 45,000 jobs resulting, con-
siderably more than projected.
The jobs this year will flow from a variety of sources.
Some 12,000 will be created by an accelerated capital works
program -
Continuation of our joint initiative with the federal govern-
ment the COED program, will yield a further 19,000 jobs
while enrichment of provincial manpower training
measures will accouint for some 9,000 new jobs and training
positions. Special emphasis is being placed on Youth
Employment Programs with $36 million being added to
their budget for a total of $121 million This will provide
100,000 jobs for Ontario's youth this year.
In addition to these short term employment opportunities,
our government will be stimulating the creation of 12,000
jobs in construction and related industries through a $40
million housing initiative designed to assist in the construc-
tion and rehabilitation of 5,000 rental units.
Increased consumer spending and demand have a direct
effect on the job market and help to speed economic
recovery. To encourage consumers to purchase large
household items, the seven percent retail sales tax on new
appliances and furniture will be lifted for a 90 day period.
Similarly, to encourage investment in production, the ex-
emption of retail sales tax on machinery and equipment us-
ed for manufacturing will be extended to include more
types of machinery, heavy trucks and trailers, and tools
and parts used for their repair.
The 1982 budget removed the corporate income tax on
small business for a two year period. This year's budget is
extending that tax holiday for an additional year. This
measure will provide small business with a $180 million
boost this year alone.
To help pay for the budget measures I have described and
to maintain the high quuahty of public services we enjoy
here in Ontario, certain tax increases have been necessary.
Effective May 24, the retail sales tax on beverage alcohol
Will go up from 10 to 12 percent at LCBO and brewers retail
stores, adding about 20 cents to a bottle of spirits and 15
cents to a case of 12 bottles of beer.
The general rate of corporations income tax will be raised
from 14 to 15 percent, while the rate of tax on income from
manufacturing and processing operations will go from 13 to
14 percent.
Beginning July 1, 1983 and continuing through the 1984 tax
year, a temporary five percent surcharge on personal in-
come tax will be collected from those with a taxable income
above $2,178. This Social Services Maintenance tax, as it is
called, is necessary to assist infinancting our public pro-
grams and new measures to create jobs.
OHIP premiums will increase five percent this year with
the result that effective June 1, singles will pay an extra
$1.35 per month and families an extra $2.70.
Total provincial expenditures in 1983 are projected at $24.7
billion, an increase of 7.7 percent while taxes and other
revenues will rise by 7.9 percent to $22 billion. This leaves
us with a deficit of $2.7 billion, up from $2.5 billion last year.
Although this amount may seem large to the individual, On-
tario's deficit last year was the lowest per capita in Canada.
It is encouraging to know that the recession seems to have
run its course and we are on the path to economic recovery.
Ontario's sound record of fiscal responsibility has haixu us
weather the difficult times and I am confident that the
budget's policies will lead us towards a period of renewed
prosperity.

Pay Parking Big Issue With Unions
by Gay Abbate
Scarborough Council is
headed for a showdown
with its unions over the
question of pay parking at
the Civic Centre.
This week, council will
debate a board of control
recommendation to charge
its employees $15 per
month for parking. The
same proposal would have
visitors pay 50t per hour.
The unions for both inside
and outside employees op-
pose any fee for parking
and this past week wore
special buttons as a sign of
their protest. Union
representatives plan to ap-
peal to council to overturn
the board of control recom-
mendation.
While the unions oppose
any form of pay parking,
the rest of the borough
employees, some 280 of
them who are organized as
the Scarborough Executive
Employees' Association,
say they only oppose the in-
equality of the present pro-
posal. Mike Price, presi-
dent of this association,
thinks pay parking is "in-
evitable".
What the association ob-
jects to are the inequalities
of the proposal: free park-
ing for employees on
mileage allowances since
their fees would be reim-
bursed: the unfairness to
employees who must bring
their cars to work part of
the week as a requirement
of their job and who would
have to pay the full charge,
and the lack of any
guarantee to employees
who pay the $15 that they
will indeed find a parting
Pay parking is a casualty
of development in the town
centre. Council believes
that pay patting will deter
employees in other
buildings from using the
borough lots.
Employees will be issued
a special card to activate
electronic gates which
would control access to the
parking.
Other employes in the
town centre area also plan
to charge their employees
for parking privileges. Don
Fleming, president of
Equity Development
Group, whose first phase of
the Consilium project is
now under way at Progress
and McCowan, will charge
$30 for surface parking per
month.
Employees who want to be
assured of a parking space
can spend $50 per month
for reserved underground
The need to charge for
parking is the result of a
parking policy for the town
centre area adopted in 1981
by Scarborough Council.
By permitting only the
minimum number of
spaces, council hopes to en-
tice employees onto public
transit.
By the time development
is complete in the town cen-
tre area, council expects to
have 50% of all employees
coming to work via public
transit.

by Mlle Huff
Ezekiel saw a wheel and
so our sermon topic was
The wheels of Life. Are you
familair with this passage
of the Bible where Ezekiel
saw wheels and wheels
within wheels all moving in
harmony.
It is one of many Old
Testament visions - Jacob
saw a ladder with angels
going up and down - Moses
saw a burning bush - all felt
the presence of God but do
not admit to actually see
-
ulg Him.
So it may be in our day, at
times we may feel a special
allnospbere not caused by
our friends or our surroun-
dings; could this be the
presence of God trying to
tell us we have a special
place in this world where
we can do a little bit of
good -
It is hard to know what
these many wheels mean
so we may not be able to in-
terpret what our feelings
are. However, let us not
pass than by but try to do
our bit towards making this
world a little better than it
is.
Remember that May 29th
is our 93rd birthday and we
hope to celebrate it well
with Rev. Roy Webster,
assistant minister of
Eastminster United
Church as guest speaker.
Thee will also be a lun-
cheon to follow the service
(one you won't want to
miss) so try to let all
former members and
friends know about this
event.
On Tues. May 24th the
final Official Board
meeting of the spring will
be held in the manse at 8

ICTS Not Convenient
Enough- - Planners
by (lay Abbate
Scarborough's new RT
may be a futuristic mode of
transportation but not
everything will be comfor-
table and pleasant for its
passengers, borough plan-
ners say.
Negotiations with the TTC
on what Scarborough plan-
ners consider to be essen-
tials for the system have
reached an impasse.
As a result, RT
passengers transferring
from regional to local
buses better have the
necessary tokens or else
they will have to climb two
flights of stairs to buy a
token and then return to the
lower but level. This is
necessitated because the
TTC will not install a token
machine on the lower level.
But this is not the only in-
convenience with which
passengers will be faced.*
Others include: a waiting
room at the regional/local
bus level the size of one
parking space; carrying
hand luggage through an
enclosed token -operated
'urnstile, no landscaping
at the Ellesmere and
Lawrence stations; staring
at transformer vaults at
the Ellesmere and
Lawrence stations because
the TTC is only willing to
put a chain link fence in-
stead of a wall; and a town
centre station whose ex-
terior of precast concrete
panels make it the least
aesthetically pleasing of all
the stations on the RT line
and not in keeping with
town centre standards.
Because negotiations
have reached a standstill,
members of board of con-
trol
oo-trol will meet with Metro
Chairman Paul Godfrey
and numbers of the TTC in
an effort to resolve the dif-
ferences.
Scarborough's Planning
Commissioner. Ken
Whitwell, says he wants to
make sure that pedestrians
and passengers alike have
easy access to and from the
RT stations.
Scarborough's first priori-
ty, Whitwell says, is to "en-
sure that optimum
pedestrian connections are
provided between the sta-
tions and the community."
Whitwell told the Board of
Control recently that the
TTC only cares about func-
tion, not what happens to
the passengers once they
leave the station.
According to the planning
commissioner, pressure is
being put on the TTC not to
spend any more money on
the RT than was approved
last year when the cost rose
to $181 million, some $3o
million over budget.
When Scarborough and
Metro agreed to the
changeover in technology
from light Rail Transit, a
glorified streetcar, to the
more modern Intermediate
Capacity Transit System,
thus jacking the price from
$101 million to $131) million,
the province promised to
pick up all additional costs.
Now, says Whitwell, the
province is pressuring the
TTC to keep costs down.
Whitwell is even threaten-
ing to refuse building per-
mits for three RT stations
unkss the TTC is willing to
satisfy Scarborough's con-
cerns.
oo-ceras.
Many of the little extras
that Scarborough wants in
the stations, such as marm-
ed stations, are not war-
ranted because of the low
ridership the TTC main-
tains. However, Scar-
borough Controller Ken
Morrish says the RT will
never get the ridership
without the "little extras".
Ward 5 alderman Marilyn
Mushicrski says she is sym-
pathetic with the ITC's
position of having to keep
costs down. But, she says,
the RT in Scarborough will
be the showcase for the
province to show off to all
perspective buyers.
"Like a model horse, it
should be decorated a little
better and it should have
all the little extras."
Mushinski argues.

It was put together by
choreographers Hans van

the Holland Festival in

Still we'd like to say
something nice about C.S.
Well then, we enjoyed the
authority seemingly in-

dancing and the youthful
exuberance of Kim
Lightheart and Jeremy

It would be too simplistic
and possibly unoriginal to
say that Sphinx stimc. And
yet, one is hard pressed to
find much of value in it.

the words of its
choreographer Glen
Tetley.
He has stated "I've never
believed in .. movement
which is purely for the sake
of entertainment." He has
also pontificated that his
works are "against
theatre, against bravura".
Apart from contradicting
himself he seems to have
forgotten that ballet, even
though it is among the
highest of art farms is still
a part of show business.
50% show, 50% business.
Both entail elements in-

There is little joy for an

by any suggestion of art - in

The Scarborough Board of Education invites residents of
the Rouge Community, Neighbourhood No. 2, to submit sug-
gestions for the name of a new elementary school to be con-
structed on Generation Blvd.
Suggestions will be considered from residents living in the
neighbourhood bounded by Sheppard Avenue to the north
and east, Highway 401 to the south and Meadowvale Road
to the west.
Names for the school should give recognition to the follow-
ing: (i) Canadians who have made a significant contribution
to the Province of Ontario or Canada as a whole (ii) Scar-
borough communities with special historical significance
to the Borough (iii) the street on which the school fronts
(iv) famous persons (these should exclude names of living
persons).
Residents of the Rouge Community, Neighbourhood No. 2
should submit suggestions to:

While we're on a roll of,
we believe, un-
characteristic nastiness, a
few words might be in
order about the costumes
,of Willa Kim. Deliberately
,or otherwise the costume
for the character of
Oedipus is so sexually ex-
plicit that be looks like a
wallding phallus.
Sex looms largely in the
third work Don Juan. How
pleasant to see Frank
Auguetyn in action again.
We haven't seen him for a
while and when last we did
it seemed to us that vitality
was missing. Well, it's
back in full measure and on
abundant display in this
work.
Let it be said that be

both Vanessa Harwood and
Karen Kain. The former
displays a nice earthy
qty perfectly counter-
pointed by the ethereal
quality of the latter.
Kim Lightheact danced

display of fiery passion . .
the passion of a woman
who gill fight for her love,

Jeremy Ransom was
Batricio and nicely
delineated the anger and
sorrow of the cuckold.
David Nixon was powerful
both in acting and in danc-

ego of the title role.
All in all not a bad evening
but let's send Tetley back

All sorts of celebrations are

that the best is at CafE of

There's a special luncheon
buffet as well and we had
the opportunity to sample it
the other day with Leanne

but we particularly recom-
mend the seafood salad.

Of Murder
By Players
Victoria Players are
presenting ' Ibe Sound of
Murdo ", a murder drama
by William Fairchild,
directed by Geoffrey Allen,
at the Fairview Library
Theatre from Wed. June 1
to Sat. June 4.
The play is about Anne
Norbury who is trapped in
a loveless marriage with a
man whose personal vin-
dicitiveness belies his
public image as the author
of a series of charming
books for children. He
adamently refuses her
pleas for a divorce. In
desperation, Anne and her
over seek the one remain-
ing solution - Murder.
The play is set in England
during the fifties, a period
when women still had little
independance and divorce
was viewed as an unpar-
donable stigma. The plot
abounds with red herring
clues but, as the curtain
falls, the audience is left
with one unanswered ques-
tion: - did the lovers suc-
ceed in carrying out the
perfect murder?

New Baseball
League
For Metro
by Heattw D. Whyte
When 66 -year-old Alex
Stanley threw the first ball
of the new Labatt's Metro
Toronto Major Baseball
League, his dream had
come true.
Stanley has been around
amateur baseball most of
his life. For 16 years,
Stanley has been trying to
organize a senior baseball
league in Toronto. This
year he succeeded.
Last Thursday night's
baseball game between the
Leaside Maple Leafs and
the York Pioneers opened
the new league. About 300
spectators from across On-
tario were at Talbot Park
to watch.
After battling for the lead
in the fust seven innings,
Leaside were ahead by
10-7. But Yost came on
strong in the eighth.
With the bases loaded on a
triple by York catcher Gino
Camhpoh, shortstop Brian
McTaggert's single gave
York the win. The final
score was 11-10.
The York win started the
inaugural season which is
expected to last into
September. As commis-
sure of the new league,
Alex Stanley has high ex-
pectations.
Stanley said, he sold the
idea of the Metro league to
Labatt's with hope the
league would expand next
year. "There are already
interested parties ap-
proaching me for next
year's season," he added.
There are nine teams now
playing in the league spon-
sored by Labatt's
breweries. The teams from
the Toronto area are the
North York Citizen, East
York Quinn's, Leaside
Maple Leafs, Grandravine
Braves, York Pioneers,
Etobicoke Indians, and the
Thornhill Blade Rainbow.
The Newmarket Hawks
and the Barrie Mauraders
are also in the Metro
Lea
Som of the player's
names are familiar to
baseball fans. On the York
team are Junior Phillips
and Remo Cardinale
formerly from the Toronto
Blue Jay farm, and Mike
Prosper from the New
York Mets Club.
On Leaside are former
professional prospects, Bil-
ly Reade, Dave Peyman
and Steve Breitner. Also on
Leaside is Roger Speller, a
former member of the
Canadian national team.
Alex Stanley said his
dream was to organize a
Metro Toronto senior
baseball league of profes-
sional calibur. It seems his
dream has been fulfilled.

Front Yard Parking
Scarborough needs to
review its policy in regard
to front yard parking says
ward 2 alderman Barry
C hristemen.
The hold-up, however, is a
report from the planning
department staff who were
asked two years ago by
council to review the front
yard Ping problem and
come forth with some
recommendations.
Members of the Works
and Transportation Com-
mittee have asked that this
repot come forth as soon
as possible.
The need for new solutions
to the problem of front yard
parking especially in the
borough's older wards
became apparent last week
when the committee was
asked by Michael Hall of
Robinson Ave. to change
the parking limit in front of
his house from one to
twelve hours.
Mr. Hall told the commit-
tee that the lack of a
driveway for his semi-
detached home means
parking on the street. This
has led to parking tickets
amounting to over $1,000 in
the last year.
With no parking allowed
anytime on the other side of
his street, Mr. Hall has no
where else to park.
Other homes on this
"Museum of Sckentific
Curiosities,, in the Town
Hall, daily until June 5.
Open weekdays from 9:30
a.m. to 5 p.m. and
weekends, 10 a.m. to 6
p.m., Black Creek is
located at Jane Street and
Steeles Avenue.

Street Names
Two streets in Scar-
borough are having their
names changed. Purcell
Blvd. east of Birchmount
Rd. is being renamed San -
wood Blvd.
The name change is
necessary because of the
re -design of the street
system in that area.
The Scarborough Works
and Transportation Com-
mittee has approved a
change in name for a part
of Maberley Cres. which
will now be known as

Citation For Cavanagh
R.E. Cavanagh Electric Company Limited was the reci-

President of the Ontario Municipal Electric Association on
Tues. May loth.
The presentation was made in appreciation of the firm's
continued support by endorsing and malting available the
services of R.E. Cavanagh to serve as President of the
Association 19853.
During the presentation, Mr. Wratten stated that a con-

attend to association business. That demand could not have
been met without the dedication of Dict Cavanagh and the
unqualified support of the management group of R. E.

The Works and Transpor-

proved spending $3,100 to
construct an asphalt
pathway to cataract with
the existing sidewalk.
This will be welcome news
to the many people who
have had to endure mud
and water along a dirt
pathway made by the
heavy pedestrian traffic.
Sidewalks cannot be con-
structed

is under private ownership
and is undeveloped. When
development takes place,
then proper sidewalks will
be constructed
According to a staff report
prepared for the commit-
tee, some form of pave-
ment is needed "for
pedestrian safety and con-
venience". The construc-
tion, if approved by Scar-
borough Council, will take
place this year.

AJAX-PICKERING BOARD OF TRADE
Our General Meetings are turning out to be real "eye
openers" with regard to insights into the workings of our
police force and the Region of Durham school board. A re-
cent guest speaker, Mrs. Ruth Lafarga. Chairman of the
Durham Board of Education, told us about apparent cur-
rent problems of a financial nature.
Property tax and business tax are proposed to increase
equally, shifting the responsibility of payment for educa-
tion to us in equal portions, which would see us having to
carry a substantial amount of money over and above what
we have been accustomed to paying in the past. At a "high
level" meeting at Henry Street High School, on behalf of
business people and property owners I strongly objected to
this kind of proposal. However, on second thought, it is a
known fact that one gets quality only if, in return, one is
willing to pay for it.
The problem in our schools to -day is not so much of an
academic nature. The problem is rather a lack of the
teaching of discipline to our youngsters. When students

Liberals like grants. They are bureaucratic. I prefer tax
incentives which use the existing tax structure and add
nothing to bureaucracy.
I am discouraged by the trend in recent years to abandon
tax incentives in favour of grants, subsidies, loans and loan
guarantees. I am discouraged because I have a strong
belief that incentives encourage and motivate people to
Participate in the economy. I have an equally strong belief
that the only thing grants encourage is an unhealthy
dependence on financial assistance for public funds.
The government wants more direct control of the private
sector. By distributing grains, it is able to cement its grasp
on private enterprise.
How does this happen? In the first place, it is necessary to
employ a great number of people to administer a grants
program- Second, because the power of distribution and
selection rests with the government, private enterprise

ONTARIO BUDGET '83
The 1983 Ontario Budget was tabled in the Legislature on
Tuesday, May lOtb,19133 and incorporated job creation pro-
tax breaks for consumers, assistance for small
bushiess and measures to stimulate investor confidence.
This Budget was designed to give a push to the economic
recovery that is currently gaining strength in this province.
JOB CREATION:
Recognizing that unemployment is one of the most crucial
issues facing Canadians today, the TreaSnrer announced a
$242 million job creation program to provide 76,000 addi-
tional temporary jobs and manpower training positions.
Approximately 12,000 jobs will result from Canadian On-
tario 000 addi-
bonal jobs �t initiatives and emerge from othershort-term employment
programs -
Funding, in the amount of 836 mdi on was allocated for
youth employment while 814 million was earmarked for
manpower training.
TAX INCENTIVES:
To encourage consumer spending, a 90 -day exemption
from retail sales tax on new household appliances and fur-
niture was included in the Budget. As the Treasurer in-
dicated, increased consumer spending and demand has a
direct effect on the job market and therefore the speed of
the economic recovery.
Small business will be exempt for an additional year from
corporate income tax payments - an incentive which
represents a SIOD million boost to small business this year.
This incentive was first announced in the 1982 Budget as a
two-year tax holiday, now expanded to a three-year pro-
gram. The Budget also provides funding for the Small
Business Development Corporations to be significantly
enriched to 830 million for fiscal 1983-84.
INCREASED REVENUE:
Faced with the dia5mille of stimulating the currerht
economy and maintaining a lewd of pubbe services which
Ontanam have come to expect, the Treasurer generated
much-needed revenue by a small increase in the deficit and
a number of tax ineraeses.
The retail sales tax an beverage alcohol will increase from
10% to 12% at LCBO and Brewers' Retail Stores, effective
May M, 1993.
The 7% retail sales tax that already applies to beverage
alcohol will now be extended to tobacco. The tobeew tax
rate was also increased by 5% adding, because of the two
changes. apProdmatehy lit to the cast of a package of 20
A temporary, 18 month, Social Services Maintenance Tax
will apply to Ontario personal income tax when an in-
dividual's taxable income is in excess of 82,178. This surtax
will be calculated at 5%. This will be 25% for calendar year
1963 as this surtax rate will be in effect for one-half of 1943.
ORP premiums will increase by 5% 41.35 per month for
singles and 82.70 for families) effective June 1st, 1983.
CONCLUSION:
We have recently faced some rather difficult economic
times and, whip they are not yet over, I am confident that
the responsible measures outlined in the 1983 Budget will go
a long way to Placiht this province back on the road to
economic recovery.
must rely on the judgment of a civil servant or a politician.
Inbey the birneauc.
� the businessman is replac-
ed
It has been proven over and over again that government
control of the private sector in the form of bureaucratic
decision -malting leads invariably to bad decisions, less pro-
ductivity and less efficiency.
I prefer tax incentives because they are available to
everyone. Investment decisions are based on the best
business judgment of the individual and the company sur-
vives on the strength of that decision. An important point in
this matter is that in an incentive tax structure, the com-
pany will decide how to invest money in research and
development. But in a grants system, the government
negotiates a say in what that business will develop.
Inequity is inherent in a grants program, for grants not on-
ly favour one company over another, but they also favour
types of companies. Thus, while thousands of small
businessmen go bankrupt in this country, Maislin is able to
negotiate a deal where it will pay no interest on 824 million
for two years. Why? Because larger companies are better
equipped to deal with government than are the smaller
companies.
The move from tax incentives to grants discourages small
business and creates government dependence in large com-
panies. After all what small business could properly res-
pond to fast changing markets if it relied on the slow, time-
consuming, inflexible bureaucratic selection process.
Finally, the donation of public funds to financially assist
patronage. companies T fac� of Gillespieabuse of political
ung affair has deepen-
ed my conviction that the grants system is out of control
and should be replaced by a system based on equity and tax
relief. The selection of companies for handouts from civil
servants and politicians is a violation of the principle of free
enterprise and does nothing to encourage risk taking in
private enterprise.
So if you think that no alternative has presented itself in
the ranks of the Conservatives, remember, this is what we
would do. We would reverse the trend from loans, grants
and subsidies and reinstate an incentive tax stnrc.'trre that
would build a dynamic Canadian society.
