PidkerinB4OM. 839.5610 uw Members of the Durham Board of Education are concerned over a recent government proposal, which, if implemented, would alter the present method of funding the public school system by shifting revenues from taxes collected locally to the province. Known as the Martin model, the Durham Board says that it is an attempt by the province to achieve greater equity among public and separate school boards through the mechanism of pooling com- mercial and industrial assessment on a province - wide basis. above the maximum Or- dinary Expenditure Ceil- ings provided by the Ministry of Education (in 1984, $2,297 for each elementary school pupil and $3,140 for each secon- dary school pupil) would raise the above -ceding por- tion by levying taxes on residential and faun pro- 1lerties- These taxes would be at the boards' disposal to cover education costs. However, boards would also be required to mise an equivalent levy on com- mercial and industrial pro- perties, the revenue from which would be sent to the Ontario Government to be 1ecluded in a pool of such assessment. The monies contained in that pool would then be redistributed by the Idumazy of Education, ac- cording to a forumla not yet revealed, to school boards across the province. The Durham Board points out that the level of the per pupil provincial grants has decreased significantly in recent years from the 60% funding commitment made by the government in 1915, and as a result, few boards in the province can operate within the imposed ceil- ings. To illustrate using the latest available statistics on grant levels and board expenditures, in the elementary schools 82 of 121 public and separate boards were over ceiling; only two of 71 boards in the secondary schools func- tioned within or below the The Durham Board con- curs with the ministry's ef- forts to restrain overspen- ding, but feels that con- crete action in this direc- tion is extremely difficult given the escalating costs of offering programs and services required by the government itself and by local communities. If the Martin model is im- plemented, the Durham board points out that the province will have access for the fust time to a con- siderable slur of money which has traditionally been a source of local revenw.

June 13, 1984 Opinion a page for expression for you and us What About The East Mr. Davis? The announcement this week that the grandiose plans of the Davis government for transit in the future have been "put on hold" fits the apparent philosophy of this govern- ment which is to give everything to the west of Metro Toron- to - but never to the east. It is not too long ago that the same Minister of Transporta- tion James Snow told a Scarborough audience that the pro- posed highway 407 running north of Metro through Markham to the proposed Pickering airport "was on hold". However• in the west end, without much fanfare, Highway 409 was built to speed up entry to the airport and Highway 403 has been built to ease the load of traffic around the 401 going west and bringing commuters to Metro Toronto. Looking over on the east side of Metro we have a hold on the Spadina Expressway which has poured an excessive amount of traffic on to the Don Valley Parkway. We have the southern Scarborough Expressway stopped leaving the Gardiner expressway output to pour up the lonely roadway - the Parkway. Meanwhile in the west commuters can roll for miles along the Queen Elizabeth Highway or take the Highway 401. Motorists in the east have been awarded only one highway east and west - the 401. So the net result of the Davis government's actions is that development of housing and industry tends to go to the west where roads help industry move its products and com- mutes can get to Metro dlowntown easier. This results in more people wanting to live on the west side of Metro Toronto. Of course, we should point out that Premier William Davis and the Minister of Transportation James Snow both live on the west side of Metro Toronto and it ap- pears that they are very definitely loading the scales against eastern development. We hope that the represen- tatives from Scarborough. Pickering and east are saying a few words to this "west side" premier and reminding him that Ontario voters expect equality of service, not all in his own backyard. It may be the Pickering airport hangup which Bill Davis is experiencing. Ever since the NDP gave him a minority government for one term of office. Mr. Davis has rehgiouu- ly avoided doing anything to help roads or transit in the direction of this airport site. This, of course, is ridiculws because the federal government gave him the choice of sites for the area's second airport - and Bill Davis picked Pickering. Now he has decided to have development around Metro go west and the east can go "on hold" for ever. We would like to predict that one of these days in the not too distant future, motorists, who live in the east and pay the same taxes, but have more aggravation about driving. are going to revolt against a government which insists on ignoring the eastern side of Metro Toronto for transit and roads. We should point out. too, that the Don Valley Parkway and the 401 are loaded and sensible planning must produce more roadways to allow the ever growing traffic to disperse to the outer suburbs on the east side of Metro.

Malcolm Card .Much of our world has little to do with religion and church. It could be said that religion in the west has fallen on had times and we are in a post Christian era. The microchip has taken the place of the communion wafer as a means of faith The reading of the Dow -tones and Toronto Stock Exchange has taken the place of the Bible as a daily aid for life I would suggest that while Christianity is losing influence in the west that in fact Christianity trade possible the microchip. I would further suggest that Christianity has made possible the development of the Columbia space shuttle. coloured television and the home computer. Nicolas Berdvaer in The .Cleaning of History wrote it is impossible for man t„ build railroads, invent the telegram or telephone. while living in fear of demons Christianity has had a large place to play in the creation of our society as xe know it The Feminist movement. and the Peace movement have found support from the pages of the Bible While the church might not favour these through misinterpretation and shortsightedness, the Bible has supported these things for two thousand years Mark 5:1-1ri tells the story of a wild. uncontrollable man, who lived among the graves. He was controlled by demons and uncontrolled by men. But Jesus cast the demons out. The scriptures described this wild man in verse 15 as "sitting fully clothed and sane, Man does not have the energy or potential to think, discover or create if he has a confused mind Only as man finds meaning in life can he find the energy and genius in life to create. John M :32 says that the truth will set us free. Christianity set men free from the demons of the past so that he can brave the unknown of the future. Faith in God need not be lessened by the microchip or any other invention of the 21st century. Gal gave us the world wrapped up in a mystery. God gave us the inquiring mind and the intelligent will to undertake the challenge of outer space and the inner mind. The integration of the ancient truth of the scriptures and the most up-to-date truth of the sciences and technology is one of the neediest areas in modern scholarship. We need to continue to research and speculate and probe all the while being aware of the ultimate truths that we have in God.

Escalating Mortgage Rates Slowing Real Estate Escalating mortgage interest rates held the residential real estate market in check in April, according to William E. Dickson, president of the 5b,0oo member Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA ). Although April is traditionally the month in which the highest number of purchases are made through the Multi- ple Listing Service ( MIS ). April this year was merely on par with March, he noted. "High mortgage interest rates will shatter the home buy- ing plant of many families this year," said Dickson, "at a time when they had high hopes of realizing their ambition to become home owners." "The fact is that renters with the average annual household income of $24,617 can no longer qualify for any mortgage except a one-year term at 12 1 2 percent if they require a $60,000 mortgage. They cannot qualify for the go- ing rate for a five-year mortgage of 141.4 percent." The difference in monthly payments on a $60,000 mortgage amortized over 25 years when interest rates climb from 12 to 14 1 4 percent - as they have recently - for mortgages with a five-year term is $96.99 a month, he noted. -111: is unfortunate that when the economy is showing signs of recovery that high interest rates are not only adversely affecting the housing market, but other segments of the economy too which, in turn, will only increase unemploy- ment," Dickson said. What Is Love? Love is a strange emotion, Full of passion and desire, All consuming and overbearing. It eats away the soul It destroys reason, It distorts the sense of order in life. But can one live without it? Without love, life becomes a meaningless shell. There, for all practical purposes, But hollow within Without love, the resonance of life Becomes a mere echo. So don't hide from love, Enjoy its warmth, its fulfillment, Each moment you can. by Penny Milne If you have a ,poem you've written why not send it to us for inclusion in this space. ti tT_ Dorothy Godley.

Tenants Face Eviction by (fay Abbate Two Hundred Scar- borough tenants, who owe their landlord hundreds of dollars in back rent as a result of a 25% rent in- crease allowed by a rant appeal board, are now fac- ing aning an additional 15% in- crease. Tenants of 27011 Lawrence Ave. E. attended a rent review hearing last week to argue that their landlord, Carbon Jubilee In- vestmennts Ltd., should not be given anything more than the 6% increase he is allowed. The residents will pro- bably appeal the decision of the Residential Tenancy Commission if it goes against them. The residents of this limited dividend building, which means the owner was given special low mor- tgage rates in exchange for charging reduced rents, are still trying to come up with the money to pay the back rent owed for 1982. Some tenants owe as much as $1200. Many of the tenants are having trouble paying what they owe because they did not put the money aside throughout 1962 in case t� appeal went against The landlord is now demanding his money but has agreed, through his agent Bert Reitter, to make arrangements where possi- ble to allow the tenants to pay what they owe in m- stallments. But Mr. Reitter says he is not willing to wait two years to get the back rent. However, while negotia- boas are underway to come to some sort of arrange- ment, some 12 tenants last week received a letter ad- vising them to pay what they owe or go to court. Mr. Reitter told the News that the tenants receiving this notice are delinquent in their present rent. However, tenant spokesman Charlie Kat - tides said only one or two are not up to date with their present rent. The rest, he said, are at- tempting to make ar- rangements to pay what they owe. Mr. Reitter said one or two whose rent is up to date may have "slipped through". He said that these people would not have to appear in court. If the most recent rent in- crease application by the landlord goes against the tenants, it will be the third rent increase above 6% in as many years. In 1981, the landlord applied for and was granted a 29% in- crease. Because 2700 Lawrence is a limited dividend building, there is a $21,000 ceiling on the income the tenants can earn. Rents in the building range from $273 per month for a one bedroom apart- ment to $348 for a four bedroom. Wed. June 13, 1!184 THE NEWSIPOST Page 3 Initiate Land Use Study by Clay Abbate Scarborough Council will undertake a land -use study of the Sheppard Ave. area between Midland Ave. and Brimley Rd. in an effort to stem the tide of growing problems in this district. Last week, Ward 12 Alder- man Bob Aaroe introduced a notice of motion asking for a study of potential uses and possible solutions to the transportation and parking problem in the area. After a lengthy discus- sion, council decided to ask its staff to report back in two weeks with the terms of reference for the study and some indication as to what the problems are. The parking problems in Glen Watford area have been aggravated in the last three years with the con- struction of a new plaza on the east side of Glen Wat- ford and the conversion of the former roller skating rink to 23 shops and restaurants. The influx of Chinese mer- chants who have taken over many of the shops in the area has also con- tributed to the problem. Merchants at No.6 Glen Watford claim motorists, mainly Chinese, park m their plaza and dross over Cost Free Registry West Hill Community Services is providing a cost-free registry for parents who need care for their child, days or ever- Ings - Phone 284-5SM for more information. to shop in the Chinese stores. In order to keep their space free for their own patrons, the merchants at No.6 Glen Watford and at the Horton Building have hired security people on PHONE 759-6289 Saturdays to erect barriers to keep non patrons out. Because of the shortage of spaces, motorists are park- ing on nearby residential streets which in turn has resulted in angering those affected homeowners. 44 MIDWEST RD. ska gemme skip Cme Orlmopohated WE'RE MOVING!

Trrasum of Oetam Does the program involve direct fuzancial assistance for alterations? No. The savings are in reduced property taxes each year, not in grants or loans for alterations. Under this program, the assessed value of the improvements will not be included when your property tax is calculated. providing the improvements were made to help a disabled or senior live at home. % ho can apply? Any property owner who makes improvements to accommodate people who are 65 or over and those of any age with physical or mental disabilities that would otherwise require them to live in an institution. Can only the family of a disabled or senior person apply for this exemption? Not necessarily. For example, you may wish to make improvements to accommodate a friend in your home. Moreover, disabled or seniors can apply for the exemption directly, if they make alterations that will enable them to continue living in their own homes. What about group homes? Non-profit group homes can apply, but only as long as their improved accommodations do not exceed three residential units. Larger institutions operating multiple facilities to care for the disabled or seniors are not included in this program. Can commercial properties qualify? Yes, in some cases. For example. a family operating a retail store could apply for the exemption if they make improvements to an apartment upstairs for the accommodation of a family member or friend who would otherwise be compelled to live in an What types of home improve- ments qualify? Any addition, improvement or alteration specifically related to the needs of the disabled or senior resident qualifies for this new exemption. These may include such features as special bathroom modifications or additions to an existing home. (Please note: general repairs and maintenance do not increase assessment anyway). Does the exemption apply to changes underway or completed before the program was announced? Only alterations started after May 15, 1984 when the program was announced will qualify for the property tax exemption once the work has been completed. How• long will the exemption apply? The tax exemption continues as long as the senior or disabled person uses the property as their principal residence. How do you receive this new property tax exemption?

What should have been could have been - an in- triguing txwk is smothered under excessive verbiage. meandering philosopical maunderings (none of them origina 1) and ill def fin- ed chronology. About the best that one can say of it is that it makes one appreciate the taste of the sweet water to which the author makes frequent allusion in evok- ing images of purity. It's dry. We have three science fic- tion novels to hand. All deal with an awakening in the near future. Murdock takes place in the year 2310 and is the story of a man medically frozen in 1967 because of an incurable disease from which he was suffering but for which there is now a cure. He had been a doctor but the advances made in medicine during his long sleep are beyond his capacity to accept chiefly because medicine is now dictated by computer. Not only can he not accept the computer: he cannot accept the emotions evoked when he leans that his wife has remarried and, of course, is twenty-three years older though he himself has not aged analonnical(v at all. Aril, his Want children are now married adults. The title derives from the name of the artificial (? ) intelligence that controls the hospital in which the principal finds himself after thawing. It's a good novel and would be even better were it not for the infusion (in- trusion? ) of a melodramatic and poorly resolved plot involving a crooked hospital ad- ministrator who misuses Murdock and very nearly . . well, we'd better not say any more. Spaceache (Academic Press) by Snoo Wilson - what Snoo? - is patently one of the stupidest and ill - written books in our recent ken. Also set in the near future it delineates the moral tur- rtticde to which the world descended_ Sq bpd is it that anyone can opt for cryogenesis and matter dif- fusion after which one is placed in the orbit of a dis- tant ptanet to await thaw- ing and reconstitution at a time %filen the world might be better. It's an intriguing concept and the stuff of which a good philosophical treatise or action adventure might be created but riot by so- meone with the limited scope and miniscule writing ability (hooinell edited' ( of Snoo Wilson. He has chosen to be funny but his humour is that of the gutter and the toilet. One supposes he is attemp- ting satirical farce but he has achieved only farcical satire .. farcical that is, in the light of his dreadful writing style which lacks even a semblance of discipline. Reading Spaceache is like watching Billy Connolly trying to perform Noel Coward. We will say no mote. Exiles of Colsec (Academic Press) is the Gust book of an intended trilogy. It's short ( about an hour's reading time) and tells the story of young social misfits (it's not nice to call them delinquents anymore) exiled by Colsec to colonize a planet. Colsec-Colonization Section- has had the youngsters placed in suspended animation for the journey. There's a malfunction of course and not all survive the crash on to the planet. It's often touch and go if they can survive the evil of one of their own, let alone the animosity of the native civilization. Not landmark science fic- tion but decent reading. Perhaps we enjoyed it because we'd just finished reading the execrable Spaceache. ( Never have figured out that title! Speaking of trilogies may we recommend Washington D.C. (Ballan- tine) by Gore Vidal. Although it was the first to be published, it is actually the last volume of Vidal's narrative of life in the United States as experienc. ed by one family from the Revolution ( Burr) through the nations centennial (1976) through to the 196(is which was the high noon of the American Empire. There are those who sug- gest that Mr. Vidal is an un- disciplined writer and one can understand why they might think so. Certainly he allows himself the lux- ury of abandoning current chronology from time to time but it serves mereiv to keep the reader on his men- tal toes. And, this is important because his writing style is so elegant that one can fall into the trap of admiring it rather than following the narrative. Mr. Vidal is a fine writer. Compared to him Snoo Wilson is a neander thal. We have been fortunate enough to have read the three novels in their chronological order and en- joyed each one. without hesitation though. we sug- gest that Washington D.C. is the fnw--%t of the, dwee. One wonders how many readers of it will play the game of guessing which politicians are portrayed as fictional characters. Look for Adlai Stevenson and John Kennedy.

Tomorrow night the Na- tional Ballet presents the premiere production of Onegin and will continue to present it through Sunday. On Ute 24th the Canadian Opera Company will pre- sent the first performance of Death in Venice and pre- sent it until June 30th. Both these presentations will be at The O'Keefe and that's about all we can tell you. We find ourself in agreement with the many who are complaining about the way in which the festival has been organiz- ed. Publicity releases have been minimal. It's after the fact of course but surely the festival organizers should have let the in- dividual participants han- dle their own publicity.

Whiting Secretary Wed; June 13, 1984 THE NEWSIPOST-Page 9 Father's Day nearly didn't make it Father's Day is the most impor- tant card sending occasion after Mothers Day. Although cele- brated in North America since 1910, it was not officially recog- nized until 1972. And, were it not for the determined efforts of two dedicated women -- Sena- tor Margaret Chase Smith of Maine, and Mrs. John Bruce Dodd of Spokane, Washington — Canadians might not be cele- brating this special day at all! Mrs. Dodd organized the first unofficial celebration of Father's Day on June 19, 1910, to honor her own father, William Jackson Smart, who had singlehandedly raised six children after his wife died. Although President Woodrow Wilson participated in a 1916 Fathers Day celebration, he re- fused to proclaim it an on-going national day of observance as he had done for Mother's Day two years earlier. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge recommended that Father's Day be observed in all states but stopped short of a national proclamation. PROCRASTINATION All this procrastination led Senator Margaret Chase Smith to unleash her wrath on Con- gress. In a 1957 proposal she wrote, -As far as 1 can gather. Congress has been guilty now for 40 years of the worst possi- ble oversight ... perpetrated against the gallant fathers of our land ... either we honor both our parents ... or let in desist from honoring either one. - Finally, in 1972. after more than half a century of dedicated campaigning efforts, President Richard Nixon signed a con- gressional resolution, officially proclaiming the third Sunday in June an annual day of ob- servance. CANADIAN OBSERVANCES Unofficial Canadian obser- vances of Fathers Day date back to the early 1900's and have been traditionally celebra- ted with cards and gifts for Dad. And today, while sensitive, poe- tic cards are usually the choice for Mothers Day, Hallmark's Marketing Operations Manager, Marilee Harris, reports that fathers generally have fun poked at them on their special day. "The more humerous cards are the more popular for Father's Day," says Harris. This year there are over 750 different Hallmark Fathers Day card designs to choose from 502 English designs and 289 French designs. The cards cover the gamut from humerous'one- liners' to sentimental verses. Special gift ideas include Hall- mark puzzles, leather address and date books, rosewood pens and plaques. Dad's special gift can be attractively wrapped in a variety of Father's Day gift wrap ensembles. It took a long time in coming but Father's Day is definately a special day that's here to stay.

June 13, 1984 .ink Pickering Transit To Scarborough Buses by Debbie Blair Pickering bus service could be extended to in- clude a link with Scar- borough buses in September. This change and other are part of a transit study that was approved in principle by Pickering Executive Committee on Monday. The committee approved a bus route beginning at West Shore and Oklahoma Dr. and travelling through the West shore community, and along Whites Road to Dunbarton High School where a timed transfer would occur with other routes. The proposed meeting with Toronto Transit buses is at Lawson and Kingston Rds. and at Scarborough College. The bus would make four round trips in the morning and afternoon peak periods, at 40 minute inter- vals. George Papik, director of transportation, said discus- sions with the TM could begin now. The transit study, con- ducted by Marshall Macklin Monaghan Limited, indicated about 5,600 Pickering residents Speaking To You Stott Fennd M.P. Ontario Riding On May 25th. two Bills were finally introduced in the House of Commons by the government, both of which con- cern homeowners or future homeowners. The first is the long -waited mortgage rate protection plan as ouWned in the February budget. The government has proposed that protection will be available for residential fust mortgages to purchasers of new and existing homes and to homeowners whose mor- tgages will be renewed after the implementation of the pro- Bram. Of course, this protection will not be without a charge, this being 1 1 2% of the face value of a mortgage. with a mortgage ceiling limit of $70.000. The protection fee also has a maximum limit of $1.050, which can be added to the principal amount of the purchaser's mortgage. Without a doubt. the problems with this legislation are quite visible. Firstly, with the present value of new tomes skyrocketing. and price variation from one area to another. the ceiling limit of $70.000 is low. Secondly• the feewin pro vide protection only for the term of the mortgage. In other words. when a homeowner has to renewhis her mortgage rate after four or five years, he she will have to pay another fee for the new term. In addition. this protection will not cover all increases in mortgage rates. only against thre"wrters of a rate in- crease, and this is after the rate has increased two percen- tage pants. This plan will be retroactive to March 1st, and contrary to the adveniserments which the government has been pushing in the media, has only just been introduced in the House of Commons. The second bill is an act to amend the interest act. This act will restrict the penalty that may be charged if a homeowner prepays his her mortgage. and the maximum penalty will be set by regulations. The regulation Is still be- ing drafted. but in effect, the penalty would be equal to the amount of money which the bank would lose when allowing the mortgagor a lower rate of interest. The go%emment has succeeded in totally confusing this issue, and I cannot see a lot of homeowners being able to sift through the regulations, let alone understand it. Whv the government couldn't have just amended the present in- terest act to state that all mortgages at any time could be discharged with a three month penalty, is beyond me. As I have said, neither of these Bills are sufficient as drafted, and the P.C. Party will be fighting for amend- ments, for Canadian homeowners have paid for thegovern- ment's fiscal irresponsibility long enough.

Bus Service To By George Ashe, MPP Durham West Recreation Centre...........................:......................:.... by Debbie Blah - A Saturday bus service running from North Pickering hamlets to the Recreation Centre may be on the road by this fall. The bus, would make a morning and afternoon stop within each hamlet, and cost $1 each way. The service may begin a three-month trial commen- cing in September. Peter Gillespie, president of the Claremont Com- munity Association, said at the Pickering Town Ex- ecutive Committee meeting that the fare should be the same as the dial -a -bus rate of 75 cents. But Local Councillor Wayne Arthurs said the service must be self- supporting and this would be achieved if the bus was used by 30 riders each Saturday at the dollar fare. "If ridership is increased, then it could be reduced, basically, to dial -a -bus rates." No additional supervision would be supplied on the bus. Gillespie said the North Pickering residents are en- thusiastic about the ser- vice, which still has to be approved by town council, and is sure it will be well - used. Before the recreation cen- tre was built, Mayor John Anderson said a similar service that ran on a daily basis was discontinued because it was not used. 3 Citizens Named To Property Standards Com. by Debbie Blair Three residents have been nominated to the town Pro- perty Standards Commit- tee. Peter Gillespie, a nine- year resident of Pickering and owner of a Claremont real-estate company; Joseph Healy, a 24 -year resident who works in the insurance construction in- dustry: and Gerry Mc- Cabe, a 17 -year resident who is a project manager with a mechanical contrac- tors firm, were nominated at the Pickering Executive Committee meeting. The Property Standards Committee will bear aP peals from residents who have been ordered to bring their property into com- pliance with the Property standards By -Law. which was passed by Council on May 7. The three nominees were picked from to applicants who responded to adver- tisements in local nrArspapers. The nominees must be ap- proved by Cormcil before assuming their duties. 20 Million Visit Ontario Science Centre Sometime during the week of June 17 the Ontario Science Centre's 20 millionth visitor is ex- pected to arrive. On hand for the count- down will be the Hon. Susan Fish, Minister of Citizenship and Culture, and senior staff of the cen- tre, to present some wonderful prizes. Eastern Airlines have generously donated two airline tickets from Toron- to to Orlando, Florida, and return, so that the centre's 20 millionth visitor, and a guest. can see the laun- ching of the spaceship that will carry Canada's first astronaut, Maty Garneau. into orbit. The National Research Council in Ottawa will ar- range with NASA for the two people to watch the launching from a good van- tage point at Cape Canaveral, and accom- modation for three even- ings has generously been donated by the olid -Town Holiday Inn in Orlando. In addition, the 20 millionth visitor will receive a $100 gift cer- tificate from Science City Inc., the centre's bookstore concessionaire, and a year's pass to the Ontario Science Centre. The trip to Orlando should also provide the op- portunity of a visit to Epcot and Disneyworld, just a short distance away. NASA's launching is ex- pected to take place some time in early October, so the winner's trip will be taken close to the 15th an- niversary of the Ontario Science Centre's own laun- ching, which happened on Sept. 29, 1969. Register Off Road Vehicles All owners of off-road vehicles had to register their vehicles with the Ministry of Transportation and Communications by June 1. Licence plates are available at every motor vehicle licensing office in the province. There is a $25 fee for the one-time plate. A vehicle permit will also be issued and it must be carried by the driver whenever using the vehi- cle. The plate must be mounted on the front of two and three -wheeled off-road vehicles or on the back of four or more wheeled vehicles. Anyone under 16 years of age cannot register an off- road vehicle. Owners of newly purCbas- On Thurs. June 7, I was pleased to participate in the of- ficial unveiling of Ontario's Bicentennial Medal. Bicentennial events have been taking place throughout the province to celebrate the way settlement began in Ontario, and how our communities have grown since that time. Margaret Birch, Chairman of the Bicentennial Cabinet Committee, indicated, "Throughout 200 years, volunteerism has been very much a part of our lives, and of our tradition. In 1784 the Loyalists, their French forerunners, and natives, helped one another because they were linked in a common cause, and because of the needs of survival." During the Bicentennial year, we will have the opportunity of recognizing the contribution that these numerous volunteers make to the lifestyle that we enjoy in Ontario. Municipalities, Indian bands, service boards, and in- dividuals, have been asked to nominate individuals who, in their opinion, have made outstanding contributions towards the betterment of the lives of others. The deadline for nominations is June 30, 1984, and special presentation ceremonies of 1,984 Bicentennial Medals will be made dur- ing September and October of this year. Bicentennial Medals will be presented to individuals whose names have been put forward, and who best il- lustrate the ideals of volunteerism and service to the com- munity. The Ontario Bicentennial Medal was struck by the Royal Canadian Mint in Ottawa, and is manufactured by an in- novative process which plates a layer of pure gold on a nickel base. All the components of the Medal were produced in Ont2rio, and the manufacturing process was developed by Inco Limited. I participated in the Bicentennial Medal unveiling ceremony in Ottawa with Margaret Birch, Chairman of the Bicentennial Cabinet Committee, and representatives of the Royal Canadian Mint. The ceremony was videotdeconfererr. to Queen's Park, where The honourable Claude Benuiett, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, and Dr. Walter Curlook, Executive Vice President, of Loco, Limited, also par- bppated. The videoteleconferencing service was provided through my 36nistry. the Ministry of Government Services, and it facilitates meetings between groups at distant points. The Ontario Government is considered a leader in Canada in both the development and use of teleconferencing_ The official unveiling of the Bicentennial Medal provided an ideal opportunity to recognize the rapid technological advances which have been made since Alexander Graham Bell fust began wort on the telephone in Brantford in 1874. Ontario's Bicentennial Medal program - a salute to the many Ontarianu who make a personal contribution towards the establishment of a lifestyle we often take for granted in this Province Pay To Fight Acid Rain A Gallup poll recently released by the Canadian Coalition on Acid Rain in- dicated 80% of Ontario residents were prepared to donate the financial equivalent of a day's work to clean up acid rain. However, a campaign organized by the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (O.F.A.H.) which would earmark funds for the fight against acid rain isn't generating much money. Since mid-March, the Sportsmen's Federation, Ontario's largest provin- cial conservation organiza- tion, has been selling the well known Mitchell 3o0A sp . reels t301A for left-handers i for just $29.96 (plus $2.10 sales tax and $2 postage and handling ). As an added bonus, all reel purchasers receive ed vehicles must have a dealer's certificate of sale to register their vehicles. Those who have owned them for some time must sign a self -declaration of ownership supplied by ........................ .. ADVERTISING PAYS free an exclusive fishing cap and a chance to win a Johnson 9.9 outboard motor. In announcing the reel deal and in subsequent advertising, the O.F.A.H. pointed out that a signifi- cant portion of any profits generated would be used in the fight against acid rain The balance would sup- port Federation efforts to restock, restore habitat, and preserve the future of fishing in Ontario. To date, less than a thousand reels have been purchased. The Federation's reel deal is an opportunity for Cana- dian citizens to make a con- tribution and still personal- ly receive an excellent value. Reels can be ordered from the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, Box 28, Peterborough, K9J 6Y5. MTC when registering. Owners had since Feb. 1, 1984 to register their off- road vehicles," said Minister James Snow. "Under this new registra- tion system, it will be possi- ble to identify those drivers and owners who violate the Off -Road Vehicles Act. "I might add that both drivers and owners are responsible for violations and for any lass or damage to property caused by the vehicle.".
