Apr. 18, 1984 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Housing Still Up Despite a slow approach of spring weather house buyers in the Metro region found March to their liking and as a result 3,485 residential sales were reported through the Multiple Listing Service for $355,55;,624, up from March last year when 3,236 MLS residential sales totalled $332,063,299. George King, President of the Toronto Real Estate Board, said today that in a month when some business commen- tators seemed unsure of what direction the economy would be taking, and while the stock market appeared to be sliding, home buyers showed that their confidence was high. "I don't think they were buying in March because they thought mortgage interest rates would be going up sharply but simply because they wanted to buy. and were prepared to sacrifice where necessary to meet that objective. If they were thinking much about interest rates, they were pro- bably concluding that, with general elections not far away in Canada and the United States, governments would be trying to keep rates stable. "There was a noticeable increase in the number of proper- ties on the market and this widened the range of choice. March ended with over 2,000 more MIS residential proper- ties available than at the end of February. And so it is likely that brisk market activity will continue." New Record Ontario Hydro helped Canadian National Rail set a record Of sorts when the first of 16 steam generators was delivered from manufacturer Babcock and Wilcox in Cambridge to the Darlington construction site. The steam generator. which is 4.8 metres wide and more than 22 metres long. is the widest load ever carried by CN in Ontario. A great deal of planning went into the move. The route was run through CN's computer to ensure the load would clear all bridges and other obstacles. although in some cases the clearance was only a matter of centimetres. The train crew had specific instructions not to exceed 32 kilometres an hour, but to maintain at least 24 kilometres an bour to en- sure load stability on curves.

Board Meeting - Just A "Zoo" by Gay Abbate At last week's meeting of the Metro Separate School Board, angry parents accused the trustees of being autocratic because they did not want delegations at board meetings. Putting aside for a minute the argument of whether the public should be allowed to address the full board, the parents' evaluation of this most august body is most cer- tainly astute and apropos in this reporter's estimation. Last week's board meeting can only be described as a "zoo". If all board meetings are conducted in this fashion, as has been intimated by those who regularly attend these meetings, then many of those trustees do not deserve to be re-elected. The only good thing that can be said about last week's meeting was that there were no students present. Imagine the disillusionment and shock to unsuspecting students, the very ones these trustees are trying to educate in a Christian manner, if thty had observed first hand the deportment of some of these trustees. This is definitely one of those cases where it can be said, "You had to be there to believe it". Consider the following highlights of the meeting: - when parents clapped politely in appreciation of one trustee's speech, the chairman Edward McMahon, a North York trustee, threatened to recess the meeting if there were any further outbursts of applause; - one trustee accused another of slurring him in the press; - just as the all important vote to allow delegations was be- ing taken• a trustee stood up and wanted to know what was being voted on; - another trustee, in an obvious hurry to leave, moved ad- journment of the meeting while there were still several items left on the agenda; - it took almost one hour to vote on the issue of public delegations because of constant interruptions to query what was being voted on by trustees who obviously were paying little attention to the proceedings; - after the vote, the chairman urged the public to leave "since they're not interested in what we do". It's not just disgruntled parents who complain about board meetings. Several trustees have also complained about the behaviour of their colleagues. The pettiness, the squabbling and the megalomaniac tendencies of some trustees were certainly much in evidence last week. My advice, for what it's worth, to some separate school trustees is quite simple: put aside personal differences, remember you are Catholics (some even priests ► and do the job you were elected and get paid to do. Mainstream Canada But if you don't want to take my advice, then remember this - 1985 is election year! E A breath of fresh air 'won't Honour across the land Former Chairmen Br 14'. Roger Worth Somehow, many Canadians discount small business. They tend to think of the little com- panies and individuals that produce. buy. sell. import, ex- port and market products as being small timers. Nothing could be farther from the truth. A few well chosen thoughts nu% help dispel such drivel: • I he major department store chains have beer. raying off employees. downgrading service and cutting costs as they attempt to maintain prof- it levels or limit losses. The reason? Smaller firms with topnotch service have been openly competing with the conglomerates on price. qual- ity and service. • The nation', big manu- facturers have for years been paring staff and eliminating Canadian employment, par- ticularly during the recession. lfet big companies such as Chrysler. !Nasse} -Ferguson, Mandin Transport and a great many other conglomerates easily accepted government subsidies and support to offset huge losses. Indeed, man} of the companies actually fought for the taxpayer dollars. %teanwhile, ,mailer firms that were forced into bank- ruptcy or receiscrship got little support from government,. Suddenly. though, over the last year or so the bureaucrats and politicians who had little time for small business have been forced to change their ways. The reason: a study by the 64,000 -member Canadian Federation of Independent Business indicated that all the country's net new jobs were being created by smaller firms. The information was backed by respected economists and other business organizations. The effect of the new infor- mation? Politicians asked hu- reaucrats whether it was true, and the mandarins were forced to concur. So, gradually, the politicians started to ask for Policies that would let them spend money on the small business job creators, rather than baitirts out their big busi- ness counterparts. Among the sudden policy shift,: • In its latest budget. New- foturdland lowered the pro- vutcial corporate tax on small- er firm to 10 per cent from 12 per cert. • British Columbia has set up a tack force to investigate the detntnental effects of pay- roll and other taxes on small companies. • tiu,katchewan increased the corporate tax on large com- panics. while maintauung a iii er level of taxation for smaller firms. In addition, the provin- oal government announced plans to provide a variety of other programs that will help the province's small firms. • In Ontario, the govern- ment continues its corporate tax holiday for smaller firms. • In tiova Scotia, a sectori- al study outlines the problems faced by smaller firms, and assistance will hopefully be fort homing. • is .Alberta there are no major tar increases for the sector. • The federal government also %earls to have gone out of its way to be more even- handed with the million or more firms that are involved. • Nk hat's more important than anything, perhaps, is the fact that more governments now seem to recognize that our smaller companies are not only important, but the key to a more prosperous, full - employment future.

And the fashioner of verse cannot cap his "HORSE" with "WORSE". "BEARD" sounds not the same as ..HEARD" "CORD" is different --WORD" "COW" matches 'SOW" but "LOW" is "LO". "SHOE" is never rhymed with "FOE" Think of "HOSE", "DOSE" and "LOSE", And of "GOOSE" and also "CHOOSE" Compare "COME", "TOMB" and "BOMB" Also, "DOLL" "ROLL", "HOME" and "SOME". Since "PAY" will rhyme with "SAY" Why not "PAID" with "SAID". I pray? We have "BLOOD" and "FOOD" which is "GOOD" But why is "MOULD" not pronounced like "COULD"?

Apr. 18, 1984 THE NEYVS/POST Page 3 Separate School Trustees Change Minds- Parents To Speak by Gay Abbate Metro Separate School trustees have given in to public pressure and will continue to hear delega- tions at board meetings. At a special board meeting last Thursday night, the trustees decided to repeal their early deci- sion to no longer allow deputations before the full board. On Feb. 16, the trustees, by a margin of 13 to 8, had voted to no longer allow delegations at board meetings because they took up too much time. The trustees' change of heart is the result of pressure brought to bear by angry parents. Last week, eleven parents and representatives of school groups urged the board to change its mind. $478,294 Grant To Viewstar Inc. Viewstar Inc. of Scar- borough has accepted a $478,294 offer from the federal Department of Regional Industrial Expan- sion towards developing a video communications con- sole. As a result of the project, the company expects to create over 90 jobs over the next three years, and forecasts an increase in sales of over $45 million. The capital cost of the pro- ject is estimated at over $956,000. The assistance was pro- vided under the Enterprise Development Program (EDP) which was recently incorporated into the new comprehensive Industrial and Regional Development Program ( IRDP), the core program of DRIE and the principal federal program to deliver funding to in- dustry. IRDP is applicable to all phases of the corporate and product life cycle: in- dustrial infer; in- dustrial innovation; plant establishment; moderniza- tion and expansion; marketing and industrial restructuring.

Several Scarborough parents were among those who addressed the special committee meeting held prior to the board meeting. Mrs. Joan Sayer, an Amberdale Dr. resident and mother of two, argued that only at the board meeting could a concerned parent have a hearing before all trustees. Bill French, whose children attend St. Rose of Lima, accused the board of being "autocratic". He told the trustees that "the whole concept of being Catholic is lost on this Mr. French also accused trustees of putting "petty squabbling and your own political future" above the need of parents and students. "Do the job for the love of Christ not for love of the trustee position or your own personal egos," Mr. French pleaded. The final vote was 18 to 5 in favour of permitting delegations. All four Scar- borough trustees voted to allow deputation although Trustee Marie Carroll had previously voted the op- posite way. However. the decision was not a clear victory for parents since trustees in- cluded a little catch: only those who have addressed an item before one of the committees will now be allowed to speak at the school board meeting. The problem with this con- dition is that agendas are not made public until the day of the meeting. So if parents do not find out from their trustees that something of importance to them is on the agenda, they can forget about speaking to it at the board meeting. Scarborough trustee Harold Adams says that this catch will put greater responsibility on trustees: "This puts a lot of heat on the individual trugee to do the job they're elected to do. " Mr. Adams seconded the motion to allow delegations at board meetings.

Each visiting student is between the age of 15 and 18 and lives as a member of a family, while attending classes at the local high school. Interculture Canada will host 18D students this year. Inviting a foreign student into your home gives you a chance to learn about another culture through that person's history, language and customs. It is also an opportunity to share your own culture and to help him or her adapt to a new family and school en- vironment. The most important enteriia for hosting are generosity, unde'standmg, and open mindedt>ess. Although many host families have children of high school age, families with young children are eligible and are encourag- ed to apply. Host families are not asked to make special expenditures for their student. but they do pay food costs and inciden- tal expenses which they would pay for their awn child. Interculture Canada ex- tends medical coverage to its students and issues a monthly allowance. Cur- rently there are 140 students from 40 countries living and studying in Canadian communities. For further information call fix: (S14) 288-3282. Most Found Work A graduate placement report of community col- lege graduates from fuL- time post -secondary pro- grams notes that despite the difficult economic times, 77 ply of last year's college graduates, who were available for work, found employment. The report, released by Colleges and Universities Minister Dr. Bette Stephen- son, states that the economic circumstances that prevailed during 1983 did in fact have an adverse affect on the job seeking activities of the graduates. However, despite such cir- cumstances 14,U2 of the 16,334 graduates who were available for work found employment. The 22 col- leges graduated a total of 24,514 students last year. Of the 14,122 that found work, 12,198 graduates found employment that related to their training. Median starting salaries for last year's graduates were between $14,000 and $15,000. Ballet School Is 25 Artistic Director and Ballet Principal Betty Oliphant has announced plans for two days of special events an Nov. 20th and 21st. Founded in 1959, the Na- tional Ballet School has grown from a single building on Maitland St., in which its original 27 students received their academic and ballet in- struction, to an eight building complex with 230 students in three distinct programs of study. Returning to participate in the anniversary celebra- tions will be many of the school's graduates plus leading artists from the na- tional and international dance community. The culmination of the two day celebration will be a special 25th anniversary performance at the O'Keefe Centre on the evening of Nov. 21. Contributing new ballets, enPenial.ly created for the event will be: American choreographer Glen Tetley; Dutch National Ballet Artistic Director, Rudi van Dantzig; John Neumeier, Artistic Direc- tor of the Hamburg State Opera Ballet; Uwe Scholtz, company choreographer for the Stuttgart Ballet and renowned Spanish dancer Susan, recently featured in the oscar nominated film Flameac:o at 5:15. Also included in the pro- gram will be Bournonville's Conser- vatoire and Four Last Songs which was a gift from choreographer van Dantzig to the National Ballet School on the occa- sion of the 20th anniversary in 1979. The school is anxious to contact all its former students with regard to this event and encourages those who have lost touch with the school to contact the 25th anniversary office at 9643780.

Good food and a good show in good surroundings. AT THE OPERA - La Bolueaue is one of the operas that make one realize why the world of opera is the only world for many. The soaring nueiodies of Puccini, the joie de vivre of artists, the heartbreak of thwarted love are all guaranteed to make even the sorriest of dolts properly appreciative of this highest of perform- ing arts. T ae current production of the Canadian Opera Com- pany at The O`Keefe is as enjoyable as any we've seen. And, we might just have been witness to the birth of a major star in the opera firmament.

As Mimi, Karen Hunt has the face of an angel but the body of a courtesan and one well imagines why she is desired by both poet and baron. Incidentally, one wonder how many will realize the full significance of her name. Baritone Theodore Baerg continues to impress ( one hopes be isn't being over- worked!), this time as Marcello and we were much taken by Bass Gidon Saks as Colline, the philosopher. He is one singer who can truly act. Let it be admitted though, that the favourite of the au- dience was unquestionably Irena Welhasch as Musetta the grhsette. Surely she is better described as a soubrette. Whatever, Miss Welhasch in the role is hilarious at the same time as she is lovable. More im- portant, she is a lovely singer and we will long remember her Quanda me'n (Musetta's Song). And, we will long remember this production of La Boheme.

E and R stand for "Education and Recreation' and reflects the main activities of the group. Headed by 21 -year old Peter Carnie, the group provides activities three times a week for some 50 teenagers, many of whom have dropped out of school. Every Tuesday night there is a floor hockey night at Thorncliffe Public School; Wednesday nights the group has a drop-in cen- tre which is held at the local Chapel -in -the -Park where the youth can watch T.V., play cards and darts, or hold "bull sessions". On Sunday afternoons the group holds "Self Development Workshops" at the Chapel. These one hour workshops are con- ducted by the group's ad- visor and coordinator, John Carey, a teaching master in psychology and health at Sheridan Community Col- lege. "I believe we have a most unique group," says Carnie, the co-founder. 'Through in-house train- ing, we have equipped our small committee with developmental, counselling and leadership skills which enable them to work with the youth in our area, many of whom are not attending school and are unemployed," Carnie ex- plained. " We have opened up our local school, our chapel and a Sunday afternoon classroom in a way that is non -threatening to our local youth. and in the three years since our for- mation we have been get- ting increasing attendance," continued Carnie. "The workshops have been a great help to our youth in preparing them to cope emotionally and psychologically with their present environment," he added. 1963 was a banner year for the group, whose com- mittee had over 400 contact hours with an average of 25 local youth at the drop-in centre and another 300 con- tact hours at the floor hockey nights. Fifteen boys and girls between 15 and 20 years old attended the ten -week workshops and received Certificates of Achieve- ment, and a number have returned to school. An important highlight of 1983 was the group's par- ticipation at the Interna- tional Humanistic Psychology Conference which was held in Toronto in June. The youths acted as monitors at the con- ference and in return for this service were able to participate in the con - Featured At Sunday Concert The April 22nd Sunday Concert at the Scarborough Civic Centre will feature ..Stylus,.

"Our strong points" says Carne, "is the non -threatening environ- ment we have created for the youth we are helping. We are non -bureaucratic, non -denominational and our committee is all under 21."

Ontario Riding With all the news of the Liberal leadership campaign which the press is reporting about lately, I felt that I should take some time to set the record straight on Mr. Turner's so-called innocence regarding the present state of our economy. I am sure that you have noticed that whenever Mr. Turner has been questioned about the mess that we find ourselves in right now, he always feints innocence and ad- vises that he had nothing to do with our economic problems - after all - he has been out of Parliament for over a decade now. But if one returns to the period when Mr. Turner was the Minister of Finance in 1972 and 1974, one realizes that this is where Canada's economic problems actually started. At that time the Liberal's had a minority government and they were so desperate to remain in power, that they initiated numerous programs demanded by the N.D.P., because they needed their support. Mr. Turner, along with Mr. Tr udeau, surrendered to their demands, and started spen- ding the taxpayers money. During that time, Mr. Turner doubled federal spending, inflation went up along with the unemployment rate while the Canadian dollar and our economic growth went down. In other words, because of Mr. Turner's excessive spending, he created a deficit of $5.6 billion during his two years as Minister of Finance. At that time the Conservatives, under the leadership of Mr. Stanfield, were advising the Liberals that controls on government expenditures were needed, and true to form, the Liberals did not heed Mr. Stanfield's warning. Government restraint should have started almost a decade ago, but it appears that Mr. Turner has convenient- ly forgotten this, and the problems he created. ..... •Report •..•• •=,,.a � ':. ........ from Queen's r Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West . BICENTENNIAL FITNESS PROJECT Enthusiasm for Ontario's Bicentennial abounds, as com- munities throughout the province "celebrate together" where we have come from, who we are, and where we are going. History depicts the lifestyle of our forefathers as an active one, with transportation needs often met by walking or run- ning. Although jogging and walking remain an integral part of our lifestyle, these activities often help meet our fitness, fun and leisure needs. Surveys indicate that walking is Ontario's most popular form of exercise, as we "stride" towards a healthier way of life. The increased popularity of jogging and walking activities for exercise leads to interest in safe jogging and walking practices. To address this concern, The Bicentennial Fitness Project, supported by the Ontario Ministry of Tourism and Recreation, and Fitness and Amateur Sport Canada, has been developed. The aims of the Fitness Project are to reinforce fitness as a need of modern day society• and to encourage participa- tion in jogging and walking programs. During the summer months, approximately 180 communities across Ontario will be visited by jogging and walking experts, who will con- duct a three hour clinic covering all aspects of jogging and walking. The clinic will provide instruction for both joggers and walkers, and specialized information will be available for those interested in improving their skills and knowledge in each activity. A "fun jog and walk" along a route of historic significance will be incorporated into the clinic presentation. Instruction will benefit both novice and ex- perienced joggers and walkers. as well as inactive people who are interested in developing a jogging or walking pro- gram rogram to suit their own needs. Some of the topics to be covered include diet, footwear, clothing, training pro- grams. techniques for improving performance, and preven- tion and care of injuries. The Bicentennial Fitness Project will be visiting com- munities in Durham West Riding on June 17 ( Pickering), on June 18 (Ajax), and June 23 ( Whitby) . For further informa- tion regarding the clinics in these areas, please contact: Pickering, Sue Taylor 831-1711, (Pickering Recreation Complex) . Ajax, Donna Morrissey 683-3740; Whitby, Cathy Sakata 668-6868. Why not take the opportunity to visit the Bicentennial Fitness Project and make fitness a part of your lifestyle.
