Feb. 20, 1985 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Poor Platform The Ontario Liberal Party is gearing up for the election which everyone predicts will happen this spring. But the program which Liberal leader David Peterson is putting forward includes a solid backing of the "Equal Pay for Work of Equal Value" routine of the feminist move- ment. In fact, Mr. Peterson makes no bones that he wants government and private industry to put this idea into action backed by a provincial law. We hope that unsuspecting Ontario voters will not be suck- ed into backing -equal pay for work of equal value- before they understand what it means. What it means is that a government flunky would have the power to determine that the young woman typing in Jack Bridges' Insurance office should have the same salary as the workman down the street digging a ditch for the city of Scarborough. Once the civil servant decides, industry will have to pay the price. Not too long ago our provincial government tried to put through Bill 11 which would have placed a municipal civil servant in charge of all private businesses. Included in his her power would have been the right to decide whether a business person "is competent" to run a business. Under this law a newspaper could be surpressed by such a civil servant. Our concept of government is definitely not to give power to interfere into the personal lives of its citizens nor try to tell business how it should operate. Government-owned enterprises rarely are efficient nor highly productive - so how can government tell its citizens how to operate a business? If these proponents of the "Equal Pay for Work of Equal Value" are so keen on this kind of government we suggest they pack their bags and immigrate to the Soviet Union where they %till feel at home' To Serve And Protect The scene %•as a dark night recently when a weary motorist piloted his car northwards from Sheppard Ave. E. on Markham Rd. He concentrated on his driving and noted only two other can were going north with him. The time was 10:4.5 p.m. A short stop at Finch Ave. E. and now his car began the as- cent of the overpass over the railway. Suddenly. he noticed a red light behind and then blinding double highlights. He thought: "A police car wants to go by. I better pull to the right lane." But the lights stayed behind him. The surprised motorist realized that he was being stopped. Police officer near car - "May I have vour driver's licence, sir. " The motorist handed it over. Police officer - "Do you know why I stopped you. sir'. Motorist - "No, why did you"' Police officer - "You were doing 86 kmh. " Motorist - "You mean you have been hiding in the dark with a radar trap at this time of night with no pedestrians and hardly any traffic!" Police officer - "The speed limit is 60 kmh and you were speeding, sir' " Motorist - "Burt her you are, an expensive police officer us- ing your time to capture law-abiding citizens while women are being raped, stores robbed and someone murdered in the Toronto area these nights - how can you justify that?" Police officer - "I'm sorry, sir. but you did break the law.'. The incident ended and the motorist continued on his way home funning at such waste of police officers and silly un- productive action by our police force. Of course, he realized that the Metro force gets quite a few million dollars back from the provincial courts for these radar speed tickets. Radar traps are designed to raise revenue, not "serve and protect" the public which pays their salaries' Then the motorist turned along Steeles Ave - another 60 kmh zone in open country area - and then north on the 9th line in Markham where the speed limit goes from 80 kmh to 70 kmh to 50 kmh through the village of Box Grove, and then back to 80 kmh. The motorist mused: "Why can't open roads m Metro Toronto have realistic speed limits like in Markham' - He knew the answer - there are no speed limits in Metro over 60 kmh and lots of 40 kmh zones. After all Metro's police force has to earn its "kickback" from the province. It's a system which has been in force for many years. Said the motorist: "But would I help a police officer when he needed help from mel" He wondered what his reaction would be. One million sate manhours Nov. 14 marked 19 years of work without a disabling injury for 23 members of Ontario Hydra's operations staff at the Robert H. Saunders Generating Station and the St. Lawrence Transformer Station. near Cornwall.

More Community Dairies On Page 5 I No Direct Elections To Metro - Yet by Gay Abbate There will be no direct election to Metro Council, at least not until the 1988 municipal election at the earliest. Last week, Metro Council decided to postpone mak- ing a decision on direct election until after the 1965 municipal election follow- ing which a task force will be set up to study the entire question. The direct election issue has been bouncing back and forth between area municipalities and Metro's Legislation and Licensing Committee for more than one year and it now looks like it will be studied some ` Scarborough Council took a position in favour of direct election to Metro. Although Metro Council chose to sidestep the issue of direct election it did decide to expand the size of council by four additional seats to give area municipalities a more equitable representation on Metro. It will now expand from 39 members to 43 excluding the Metro chairman. Etobicoke and North Yat get one more seat each while Scarborough, the Scarborough No. fastest growing municipali- ty gets two additional seats. The extra two seats bring Scarborough representa- tion on Metro Council to nine. Presently, the mayor, the four controllers and two aldermen chosen by Scar- borough Council sit on Metro. The additional two seats means council will select a total of four aldermen to go to Metro. There is, however, one large obstacle which must be overcome before Scar- borough gets to send two more people down to Metro -the province. As late as last September, Claude Bennett, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, whose depart- ment must approve the ex- pansion of Metro Council, has stated that he wants metro Council to be more accountable to the elec- torate, especially the Metro Chairman. Because of his concerns over Metro, Bennett might not approve the additional four seats. Scarborough Mayor Gus Harris believes the province will never agree. Controller Joyce Trimmer says she agrees with him. 1 For New Jobs During Year by Gay Abbots Etobicoke in second place For Scarborough, 1964 with 7.8%. was a bumper year for the Scarborough also ex - creation of new jobs,a e ped job growth in in - report preparedpreparedby � stitutional 16.9961 and Metro Toronto Planning retail (4.696).

Everyone is welcome. Harris would not be too unhappy if the province :refused to make Metro Council any bigger. The mayor introduced a motion to reduce the size of Metro council to 36 seats with Scarborough being reduced to 6 seats from its present 7. Etobicoke and North York would lose one and two seats respectively while the city of Toronto which already has 12 seats would ;get one more. Harris rationalizes an in- crease for Toronto by poin- ting out that Toronto pays 40% of all Metro's revenue. Having one less person from Scarborough, Harris says would not make any difference because Scar- borough's reps never vote in a block anyway. Mayor Harris believes that Metro is already too big. "It's like a big debating society now", Harris stated. He main- tains that more members are not needed because the real work is done at the committee level. All council does is discuss issues for hours but it rare- ly overturns a committee recommendation, he says. Couple Celebrates 50th Edwin and Marjory Brammer were married at Deer Park United Church on Avenue Rd., Toronto on Jan. 19, 1935. To celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary their eight children, and their spouses held a dinner party for them at the Old Scott House. The following day. Sun - Jan. 20th an Open House was held at the home of their daughter and son-in- law, Carol and Bruce Lit- tleford, Marksbury Rd., Pickering. Over fifty friends and relatives, including the couple's 14 grandchildren, dropped in to congratulate the happy couple. The children presented their father with an inscrib- ed gold watch and fob and their gift to their mother was a gold family ring with nine birthstones, one for each of their nine children. They lost a baby daughter when she was ten months of aw- Mr. Brarnmer is a descendant of the famous Wedgewood family; his father's grandmother was a Wedgewood. The couple also received an anniver- sary Wedgewood plate and a book about the Wedgewood family which includes a family tree. Mr. Brammer worked for the Canadian Institute for the Blind for over forty years until he retired in 1976 at age 65. He is a registered member of the Institute. In 1950 the family moved to their present home on Gladys Ave. which Mr. Brammer built himself. Prior to moving to West Hill the couple lived in the Danforth-Coxwell area.

Irving, is on display at the Scar- borough Civic Centre for the month of February. In this show, the artist has undertaken to explore and depict the life of the child while living inside its mother from conception to birth. Through various pieces done in marble, limestone, talc and gypsum, Michael Irving travels with the em- bryo through this extraor- dinary nine month journey and explores the physical, intellectual and emotional development of the child. The Scarborough Civic Centre is open to the public seven days a week from 8 a.m. until 10 p.m. For fur- ther information, call Scar- borough Communications at 296-7212. ing in touch with their large family, Mr. & Mrs. Bram- mer enjoy watching televison. Mrs. Brammer spends a great deal of time working on her snapshot albums. "Those little black corners we used to use are not very good now,'. Mrs. Brammer told the News.

Meet The Artist Katherine Gianneskis, quilter, whose wall - hanging works are current- ly on display for February at the Cedarbrae District Library, 545 Markham Rd., will meet the public on Sat. Feb. 23, from 2 - 4 p.m. and discuss her own collection and answer questions on the art of quilting. Katherine Gianneskis was born in Greece and spent her youth there. Her ar- tistry depicts her heritage. Her quilt themes in this ex- hibiton, with only two ex- ceptions, are as represen- tative of her native land, as Grandma Moses' themes were American. The quilts have the same vitality and charming innocence as the scenes of the famed primitive painter. To obtain such spontanei- ty with the demanding technique of hand -stitching is in itself a triumph. The largest of these quilts (70"x45"), A Traditional Greek Wedding, contains 11 figures, 3 flowering trees, 4 flying birds and a horse. The average viewer cannot comprehend the number of infinitesimal stitches that one work re- quired, given the fact that there are 11-13 stitches per inch. Mrs. Gianneskis aims at competition quilting, so even tediously wide borders must be done by hand and the back must be as neat as the front.

We mean Gigi, Mame, Phyllis-"Triller ( she sings too you know) -Diller and Greta Garbo, though we admit we're stretching for the last named. Let's visit first with Gigi as we go ... ON STAGE: We remarked recently k that it seemed difficult (to us anyway) to go wrong with the music of Lerner and Loewe and a cast that includes Louis Jourdan, Taina Elg and Betsy Palmer. After viewing the current production of Gigi at the Royal Alex some might be inclined to challenge the statement and perhaps, Sir John A. MacDonald ate hers He loved it.

Oh, it's not that it isn't pleasant and charming, far from it! It's simply that it might have been - should have been - so much better. Well now, one had better be prepared to back up such a statement and we believe we can put ourself into the minds of those who have possibly found the present version of Gigi less than satisfactory. For one thing, the glorious Loewe melodies deserve fine orchestral backgrounds or simple piano and rhythm accom- paniments. They do not deserve a small orchestra with no strings that rather reminds one of Archie Stone's pit band in the old Casino. Fin de siecle Paris deserves fine settings and costuming. It does not deserve a setting that veers perilously close to being tatty. One supposes that the company has been tour- ing for some time now and sets and costumes can become just a tad shop- worn but that isn't the con- cern of the viewer. The ticket holier expects the very best of all presen- tations. It is not always in evidence. Well, we might as well say it right out . . the title song which is sup- posed to be a paean of praise to love's awakening is almost laughable in the foreground of "fireworks" usually presented better in a pay workshop - Weary sets, shoddy costumes and simplistic special effects might have been acceptable in one of the old touring Shubert Entertainment this weekend Dave Davidson 'The Country Cockney' Moor Prizes SINGLES DART TOURNEY FEB. 22nd DONG SOCIAL PFRTES PARTIES Is PARTES d� a es &M urAE:CY a �n caaf ,lsdL asr • tw6 I P..ei • a otos .et.. neer aro er SENORS ACTWIES CHILDREMS ounNcs FASHION OWS CIAf:T DAM SPECIAL EVEWTS F,SHNG TTip$ • Y c0n.. d &am Ve h" .

PRO DARTS A PRIVATE MEMBERSHIP CLUB TELEPHONE 838-"540 Brothers shows but they just don't pass muster with today's more sophisticated audiences. So, what's left then? Well, to be fair, the principals do reasonably well by the music and, one supposes that should be enough. Perhaps it is for many. Louis Jourdan sings at least as well as Maurice Chevalier and while he still seems ridiculously young for the role physically, such is his thespian ability that he nicely conveys the age of a man "old enough to know 'his' faults but still young enough to enjoy them! , Betsy Palmer is surpris- ingly good as Aunt Alicia and then, of course, one remembers her nice character role playing in The Long Gray Line and the surprise turns to plea- sant memory. Memory doesn't work so well for Taina Elg in the role of Mamita. We are afraid that role is indelibly Hermione Gingold's. Sorry Miss Elg. In the title role Lisa Howard is pleasant if not exactly memorable and Tom Hewitt as Gaston is acceptable though we felt he doesn't have the proper air of world weariness that the part would seem to de- mand. Truth to tell we almost felt that the chorus would at any moment start to sing Hello Young Lovers. Enough of negativism! Should one go and see Gigi' We think so .. just so long as one expects nothing more than a pleasant even- ing of Lerner and Loewe. To expect greatness or even ( sic!) excellence of presentation is to invite disappointment. SUPPER CLUBBING: Another presentation of Mame opens tomorrow evening at The Limelight. We saw Mame at the aid Limelight some few years ago with Sandra O'Neill in the title role and enjoyed it at the same time as we thought that Miss O'Neill seemed singularly lacking in the verve called for by the role. This time round and in the new quarters it's Patricia Dahiquist, fresh from her triumph in Best Little Whorehouse, essaying the part and we find ourself an- ticipating her performance with eagerness. Others in the cast will in- clude the reliable Peggy Mahon and Don McManus. IN THE CLUBS: Phyllis Diller opens next Monday in the Imperial Room. It's been remarked by some that a little of Miss Diller goes a long way. That's true enough when one realizes that the person making such a statement is usually laughed out. If we have a single criticism of her it is that she has departed so far from the style she ex- hibited when she first ap. peared many years ago on the Ed Sullivan Show. At that time her persona was that of a rather sophisticated woman awakening to the glories of audience response. She rather reminded us of a combination Lucille Ball and Patachou. One supposes she has served her career well with the fright wigs and the flaky wardrobe but we could wish to see her just once more the way she once was. Mind you, we intend to be there on opening night and we fully expect that once again Louis Janetta will have to lift us out from under our table where we will have collapsed in helpless laughter.

Saturday Workshop The Ontario Historical Society is sponsoring a workshop on Sat. Feb. 23 at the new Visitor Centre, Black Creek Pioneer Village, 1000 Murray Ross Parkway, Steeles Ave. and Jane St. area. The workshop sessions will include an introduction M writing an exhibition IN CABARET: Garbo's Bistro ( Greta, get it?) has just opened a new show for an indefinite run. It's called Calla Krause Sings and features the lady in presentation of music by such as Maltby, Harnick, Comden & Green, Loesser and Sondheim. Could be in- teresting if just perhaps a trifle esoteric. ON SCREEN: If brevity is the soul of wit then we could do worse than to pass along a com- ment heard when leaving a special screening of "Tunic 1821". "White collar Death Wish played for laughs!" That unidentified voice said in seven words what might well have taken vour earnest correspondent seven paragraphs. If Wat- son ever furls the owner of the voice we're finished. UPCOMING: Necessary Angel and Toronto Free Theatre open this Saturday with a pro- ductwo of Mein. According to our release "Mein tours the troubled manipulative mind of a young executive as be,, she claws his, her way to the top of a giant corporation.' Sounds interesting enough but didn't Abe Burrows do the same thing with How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying and with music by Frank Loesser as well? The Canadian Opera Com- pany presents Mozart's Cosi Fan Tutte opening tomorrow at the Bluma Ap- pel Theatre in the St. Lawrence Centre. This is a fine opportunity to ex- perience the C.O.C. away from the sometimes caver- nous surroundings of The O'Keefe. IN PRINT: ..Hill of Beans" (Ballan- tine) by Canadian Doug Dolan, Bob Read and Wayne Parsons is sub- titled "A Trivia Workout Book" and, one supposes, it could qualify as such but we, in our capacity as the world's greatest living ex- pert on trivia, found it a crashing, self indulgent bore. There are a few inac- curacies in it as well, though that's probably deliberate to see if ink stained wretches such as we really do read all the books we review. Well, we do and we wish to protest the statement that Jimmy Boyd popularized "All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth". It was trumpeter George Rock with the orchestra of Spike Jones and the City Slickers! Ho hum. The Middle Class Credo: 1,000 "All-American" Beliefs (Ballantine) is an admitted attempt to update the landmark The American Credo written in 1921 by George Jean policy, designing an exhibit or display, designs and graphics for displays, labels and a hands-on workshop to put into prac- tice some of the skills in- troduced in the other ses- sions.

Nathan and Mencken were and, in print, still are superbly stylistic writers. T.L. Brink who has put together this little effort isn't really much more than a glorified an- thologist. He has collected about 1000 popularly held beliefs, presented them in categories and, at the con- clusion of each categorized segment, presented what one presumes is the judge- ment of facts as apposed to -beliefs". It's an interesting enough book but the author" made a big mistake when he tried to put himself in the company of such masters as Nathan and Mencken. Still, we really must men- tion one delightful little -belief '. "People with out a college education lack the capacity to fain their own opinions they merely regurgitate what they have heard from others, while college- educated people can came up with their own opinias because they have read the thoughts of the greatest thinkers in history." It's worth reading the en- tire book for just that one pithy per! One has difficulty in deciding if there is any real merit or worth in Haw Much Is Too Much - The Ef- fects of Social Drinking" (Ballantine). Obviously it can do no harm to read it but it's hard to say whether any good will come of it. Cetamly there are many statistics quoted and the author, Leonard Gross, writes in a smooth style that makes them relatively easy to assimilate but the final decision as to whether or not too much is being consumed in alcoholic beverages is up to the reader. Now, if the reader is try- ing to determine if so- meone else is drinking too much, then his or her mind is made up in advance: We all know that. If the reader is trying to determine if he or she is drinking too much then the answer is obvious. Anyone who cares enough to read this book to deter- mine if he is drinking too much has already ex- hibited enough concern to justify his own fears and concerns. We suppose it comes down to this. If you don't drink too much, you won't be in- terested in this book. If you are interested in it, then you are drinking too much and make no mistake about it. Our task is completed if we've sufficiently frighten- ed anyone away from the dangerous road of too much drinking. . - HIGH QUALITY AND LOW PRICES AT land Wed.

Service The Roval Canadian Legion was founded in 1926 to help veterans of the Boer War and World War 1 to readjust to civilian life. From these humble beginnings, the legion has grown during the last 60 years to become an organization of over 600.000 members. including 17o.000 sons and daughters. The legion's prime pur- pose is to help veterans. and their dependents, receive fair pensions, disability allowances and adequate medical or rehabilitation treatment. The focal point of legion activities is perpetuating the memory of our fallen soldiers. But the legion is also one of the most active Canadian community ser- vice organizations - helping the old and young in more than 1.600 communities through sports programs, medical research, bur- saries. care for the elderly and lowrental housing for the needy. Last year the legion con- tributed approximately 530 million in its various ser- vice programs and ac- tivities. The legion's role in our society today is a proud record of continuing com- mitment to the individual, to the community and to Canada. To celebrate its 60th An- niversary, and as a special sign of remembrance, a beautiful blood red Whp has been selected from Holland. It is the legion's goal to sell many millions of these tulip bulbs to corporations. institutions, service clubs and individuals in Canada. As a special project, manv school children in Canada will be given some bulbs to do their own plan- ting.

Town criers first ap- peared in present day On- tario in 1784 with the influx of United Empire Loyalists. As the forerun- ners of today's media, the crier announced the King's proclamations, local news, t-pecial events and, when necessary, a call to arms. This colourful tradition was carried on in this pro- vince well into the 19th Cen- tury. Scarborough Town Crier Frank Knight is hosting the local meeting. Mr. Knight, who was named the city's Official Town Crier In June, is a founding member of the new Guild. "We're well represented from across Ontario," said Mr. Knight. "But with more than 800 municipalities, we're hop- ing to grow. We'd like to revive this important On- tario tradition."

Lack Of Re Assessment Hurting Suburbs - Ashton by Gay Abbate Stonewalling by the city of Toronto against the im- plementation of market value assessment is costing Scarborough taxpayers over $6 million each year, says Scarborough Alder- man Brian Ashton. In fact, since 1976, Scar- borough has lost over $32 million in assessment resulting in an annual tax dollar loss of $6,507,288. And Scarborough tax- payers are making up the difference to the tune of $35 per year on a house assess- ed at $7,000. How is Scarborough losing this assessment and why is it not doing something to stop it? The loss is the result of appeals to assess- ment by owners of com- mercial and industrial pro- perties who feel they are overtaxed. Scarborough has been try- ing to do something to stem this tide since 1981 when council at that time voted to adopt market value assessment. This would mean that all properties in- cluding residential would be assessed at their current value. Presently, building con- structed prior to 1973 are being taxed at the 19W value. The freeze was im- posed by the provincial government when it took over the responsibility for assessing property from the individual municipal governments. A provincial study done for Scarborough in 1970 showed that 29% of all pro- perties were overtaxed, 25% undertaxed and the rest were paying the right amount of taxes. Going to market value assessment would rectify the inequity between those who pay too much and those who pay too little. Since 1961, Scarborough has repeatedly tried to per- suade the province to allow it to adopt market value but each time the answer has been no. The reason is that the province is waiting for Metro to decide whether to implement this market value assessment across all the six municipalities. Opposition of the city of Toronto has caused the pro- vince to refuse to release the results of a study undertaken last year of the impact of market value assessment across Metro. Because of its older buildings, Toronto would be the hardest hit and this is the main reason for its opposition says Ashton. But without the results of the study, Metro cannot pro- ceed with market value assessment. Outside of Metro each municipality can decide for itself whether to adopt market value assessment. What makes the entire assessment system even more unfair than it already is, according to Ashton, is the recent piece -meal ap- proach to rectifying ine- quities for certain classes of taxpayers. Last September, the Supreme Court of Ontario deemed that condominiums and co- ops should be re -assessed at their current market value, a decision which is costing the city of Scar- borough $400,000 in lost tax revenue. Now there is a movement under foot in the city of Toronto by two aldermen Dale Martin and Jack Layton, whose constihiP^ cy is overwhein ..,;.. tenants, to go through the courts to get re -assessment of apartment buildings. The aldermen maintain that tenants are paying too high taxes through their rent because their buildings are over - assessed. According to Ashton, assessment should be across the board for everyone to be fair. Last week on a resolution by Alderman Bob Aaroe, Scarborough Council once again passed a motion re- questing that the province make its study of the im- pact of market value assessment in Metro public and that other municipalities in metro support Scarborough's re- quest. Head Metro committees Two Scarborough politi- cians have been elected chairmen of Metropolitan Toronto committees. Controller Frank Faubert was re-elected to a third term as chairman of the Legislation and Licensing Committee while Alder- man Maureen Prinsloo is the new chairman of Metro's Transportation Committee. Last year, two Metro com- mittees were chaired by Scarborough polticians. In addition to Faubert, Alder- man Florence Cruickshank was chairman of the Parks and Property Committee. Centenary Opens Clinic For Children Scarborough's first 'At- tention Deficit Disorder' clinic opened on Fri. Feb. 1st, at Centenary Hospital. The clinic will be held once a week from 12 noon to 8 p.m. and is designed to help children 6 to 12 years of age who have poor atten- tion spans. Three percent of children in Scarborough are thought to suffer from this disorder, representing a total of about 4,500 children. Many names have been attached to the disorder in the past: minimal brain damage or dysfunction, and hyperkinetic or hyperactive child syn- drome. Children afflicted with the disorder may be characterized by a com- bination of poor academic performance, social and familial relationships, as well as by low self -esteem - In the classroom children have difficulty in organiz- ing and completing work, focusing on instruction, and their work is sloppy. With peers they interact poorly, are frequently re- jected, and are often regarded as aggressive and destructive. At hor-e they frequently disobey parents' requests ar° are unable to concen- trate on activities. The clinic represents a standardized method of diagnosing and treating such children and was organized by the hospital's Shoniker Clinic, in coopera- tion with the department of pediatric medicine.

The town centre mall will be undertaking its own special promotion to entice more shoppers to its doors. As well, the other major landowners in the city cen- tre area will also promote the RT opening in the hopes of attracting new tenants to their unoccupied spaces. The TTC and UDTC, the company which designed and built the new technology to be used in ill Scarborough, wboth be undertaking special celebrations. The week of the 23rd will be "Scar- borough - City of the Future" week to coincide with the RT opening. To entice passengers and the curious onto the RT, the TTC will be offering free rides until 6 p.m. on opeopen- ingday• Not all councillors, however, supported the ex- penditure of the $25,000. Four aldermen Barry Christensen, Marilyn Mushinski, Brian Ashton and Edith Montgomery voted against it. They argued that since the RT line will get so much free publicity, the city does not need to pay for ads. "We're trying to bring the budget in at under 5% so we can keep taxes down yet we're throwing away $25,000 needlessly" Alder- man Ashton said. The PCG Switchgear borough. Company of Progress T.J.

Please be reminded that the deadline for employer applications is March 15. Should you have a problem in obtaining an ap- plication form, I have a limited number in the Riding of- fice; phone 6864432. I would also encourage interested students to register at the Student Employment Centres as soon as they open in April. The following is a breakdown of the Program's six components. 1. Summer Employment; Experience Development (SEED) - $163 million - in the form of wage subsidies to private sector, municipal and non-profit employers who hire students. Priority will be given to jobs offering career - related experience and training, however, for those students unable to take advantage of career -related jobs, priority will be given to jobs providing practical work ex- perience. 2. Student Entrepreneurs - $30 million in loans - designed to work in support of existing provincial initiatives which pro- vide students with loan guarantees or loans to start sum- mer businesses. 3. Training in Federal Departments and Agencies - $10 million - made available for Federal departments and agencies to assist them in meeting student hiring goals. In addition, $13 million will go toward the Cadet and Reserve Training Programs operated by the Department of Na- tional Defence and $1.2 million toward the Supernumerary special Constable Program which hires students as special peace officers. 4. Work Orientation Workshops - $500,000 - funds will be made available to local organizations to teach students who might otherwise drop out of school the basic skills, such as how to write a curriculum vitae and how to search for a job. At the end of the time period allocated for the workshops, students will be located within some local organization where they will be expected to show up on time for work and perform specified duties, so that they get a feeling for what having a job entails. 5. Canada Employment Centres for Students - $16 million - Over 450 CECs for Students and Hire -a -Student offices will provide job placement services for the summer student labour market. Provision will also be made to hire Native students in a number of C.E.I.C. operations. 6. Business Drive for Jobs - $1.3 million - to promote hiring students. Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West I am delighted to be reporting to you for the first time as Ontario's Minister of Energy. I am, however, no stranger to the ministry, having served as Parliamentary Assistant to former ministers from March, 1979 to April, 1981. Perhaps this is the time when I should give you a little bit of history of the Ministry of Energy itself, so you will understand why we are here and what we are trying to ac- complish. The ministry was established in 1974 - about the time that energy really became an issue in Canada and worldwide, due to the Middle East oil embargo. This resulted in an oil price spiral. Crude oil is Ontario's dominant source of energy. And while Ontario produces small quantities of oil and natural gas, we are also Canada's largest consuming province. If we were to have a coherent voice in national energy debates, Ontario would need a ministry devoted to energy supply, distribution and pricing. The Ministry of Energy, therefore assumed various energy-related responsibilities previously held by other government ministries. Without going into too much detail, let me just say that we are a policy and coordinating ministry, rather than a front line organization delivering services to the public. Our job is to monitor events and trends, provide public advice and in-depth information to shape government policy, and assist the public. We coor- dinate government energy planning and priorities and help originate, fund and oversee demonstration projects under various programs. The ministry also assesses supply, demand and pricing variables not only on crude oil, but electric power, natural gas, petroletun products, coal. lignite, peat and uranium. As you know. the world energy supply is volatile. The past decade amply ilhistrates how disruptive periods of energy shortage or perceived shortage can be. The Province of On- tario, through the Ministry of Energy, has prepared con- tingency plans to respond quickly and efficiently to any energy supply disruptions. In future reports. I will be discussing in some detail the various programs and policies of my ministry. I also plan to outline many mterestmg energy-saving ideas which can be utilized in the home, in the car, and at work. It is with considerable enthusiasm that I accept the challenges offered as Ontario's Minister of Energy. {{ :•; � •:{ ;• � ti :� ::{{{{tiff tiffs ::=::ti{tiff ::::t tititi :� ti�'r'-:v:{{ti{i - ti:� 463-6749.
