"Project Heat Save" is sponsored by the Ontario Ministry of Energy, in co- operation with the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. Adequate weather- stripping, caulking and in- sulation can save Oshawa and area homeowners as much as 20 percent on their annual energy bills. At the clinic, specialists will show them how. It takes about 20 minutes to have ministry specialists do a house energy analysis, and calculate an energy rating (based on the homeowner's estimate of the square footage of the heated floor area, and last year's heating and hydro costs).

Mar. 6, 1985 Opinion a page for expression for you and us A Postal Strike Word from Ottawa of the meetings between the post office and its inside postal workers' representatives suggests that a postal strike could occur in the very near future. It is also noted that the inside workers are asking for twice the money that other postal workers have accepted which brings us to the conclusion that this union is led by some very undesirable human beings whose idea of a fair settle- ment is ridiculous. Canadians have put up with postal disruptions for a long time now and we believe the time has come to have a change of pace. Most of us do not agree that a postal union - or any publicly paid employee - has the right to strike. The postal workers are already overpaid in relation to the rest of us and the post office is still asking us taxpayers to fork over about $300 million annually to pay the cost of a post of- fice which is not profitable. If it were run by private enter- prise, management would have to balance the budget or go out of business. In our opinion the whole postal system should be turned over to private enterprise by tender. It is unfortunate that most postal workers are unable to voice their disapproval of their leaders because of the reaction at the workplace. We believe that most postal workers are trying to do a good job, but the union contract doesn't allow for proper sorting out of good and bad employees and, in fact, frustrates good work by employees. Either Canada Post Corporation should take strong action to correct this whole mess or be handed over to private enterprise. In any event the federal government should ban strikes by postal workers. Bob's Notes Revenue Canada Friendly! Gan • P. Sorenson, counsel for the Minister of National Revenue. has been appointed as ombudsman to assist tax- payers resolve disputes with Revenue Canada. He says that he is now an alternative method of resolving disputes and adds that court cases would be avoided and hundreds of millions of taxpayers' dollars saved. Sorensen is Prepared to hear and determine an application to review and set aside a decision or order made by Revenue Canada in accordance with the provisions of that act. His address is P.O.

Commis- sioner Archie Ferguson said he believed that this change will afford his people with "that extra measure of protec- tion". He adds that this will make all OPP vehicles more visible and he hopes people will see the cruiser, and use caution. He figures the highways will be safer.

One man, Archbishop Lewis Garrsworthy, Anglican Archbishop of Toronto, experiences these feelings and more in *'Pilgrimage At Easter", a half- hour special to be aired on CFTO-TV at 6 p.m. on Palm Sun- day. Mar. 31. "Pilgrimage At Easter" is the second of two films produc- ed by the Anglican Diocese of Toronto in conjunction with John Darroch of Hedon Film Projects Inc. Filmed on loca- tion in Israel, the films were produced, directed and co - written (with Archbishop Garrsw•octhy ► by Hedon senior partner John Darroch, a 12 -year veteran of Canadian net- work television, currently Associate Producer of CTV's award-winning "W5". Archbishop Garnsworthy, in searching for the meaning of the Cross, finds his own parallels. Prior to his pilgrimage, the Archbishop found himself seriously ill when cancer caused the removal of one lung. With memories of doctors and hospitals still fresh in his mind. Christ's own pain and eventual triumph seemed very real to the Archbishop. Death is a difficult subject to wrestle with, but "Pilgrimage At Easter" gives the viewers an opportunity to hear again the message that death ultimately can lead to renewed life.

The public is faced with the following strikes, fair bargaining threat of strike, or lockout in the following major areas. the police. the post office. school janitors. brewery workers. the Crown Corporation de Havilland to name a few. All this in one weekend, surely some one is being led astray and is not recognizing the facts of life. Be assured, there is only one source for the resources required to meet the costs of the settlements that are eventually made - and that source is not management car is it the politician or "government". It is John " Q" Public who picks up the tab, whether it be in increased Prices for product or additional taxes, hidden and other- wise. Since we "Johns" are paying the trill, are we expecting too much from rruanagernent negotiators. and from employee representatives to be honest for a change. Since we are pay- ing the bill, how about stopping playing around with percen- tages. and advise us through the media just what you are committing is for - in dollars and cents. And while you are at it. include the cost of the perks which you are handing out. For those Johns who are not aware, be it known that some public service rert uneratior. includes perks which represent in excess of 30% of gross pay (for an employee grossing $30.000 - that is about $15 hr - the perks amount to in excess of $9,000 per year). Oh I say. fellow Joins those nice pensions, dental plans, holidays etc.. don't come cheap for us. Do you realize that that figure for perks just about equals the gross pay of the poor devil raising a family on Minimum pay. I find it very hard to believe that the average Canadian belonging to the groups named above, bonestly agrees with the position into which they have been co -erred. We have as Cine a police force as anywhere. Surely, they must be ashamed of this character Walters who has applied the fair bargaining practice of job action - you know. flaunt our responsibilities just a bit. And cops, he chose an unfor- tunate one in the Calgary position for comparison. This John remembers the action the Calgary people had to take last year - laying off large numbers of policemen because they were faced with bankruptcy. But what the heck, last in, Cult out, and it won't affect us guys with seniority. Those young bucks don't need jobs anyway. That is narcissism. Come on boys. a bit of honesty if you please. One of the Johns who is fed up. Crawford Smyth Scarborough Around Scarborough by Gay Abbate Charges Against Kurt Scarborough Alderman Kurt Christensen is threatening to sue nine aldermen who wrote him a letter decrying his use of the city's photocopying and mailing services for his own personal use. Kurt denies the charges. The aldermen, however, say they have the goods on him. Kurt Christensen seems intent on getting out of municipal politics - be's seeking the P.C. nomina- tion in the provincial riding of Scarborough West. That's Richard Johnston ( N'DP ) territory! Really, Kurt Speaking of Kurt, not to be confused with Aldennan Barry Christensen who is not related and was on council first, we have a few questions to ask him about his campaign literature which makes for very in- teresting reading. First, we want to know where Western University is? His campaign literature says he studied there but where is there? Do you mean the University of Western Ontario, Kurt? The second question is about the Scarborough transportation policy for which he claims respon- sibility. What transporta- tion policy is that Kurt? We don't know of any such animal. Lastly. Kurt claims hav- ing supported the founding of the Emily Stowe Shelter for Women. We have news for you Kurt - the shelter was founded long before you were elected to council. Poetry Corner An Irish Lament Wished I were there in Erin's tender grasp The bog -turned sod beneath my questing feet Oh Celtic land of mystery and of love, proud writers, poets, mystic lore To hear sweet Irish lilt that ne'er offends the ear Where leprechauns on tiny winged feet perform their jig in tune to earth's quick pulse Stout Gaelic hearts in disenchanted rhythm beat But toxic mists of fire pervade the air Dark heralds of man's destructive path No light on distant horizon gleams Thus ever seemly will it be, perhaps for an eternity. Go Home Early Scarborough's public school trustees were cer- tainly in a hurry to get home a week ago last Mon- day night. They went through the agenda for the planning committee in under ten minutes - a new record! The property and fiance committee agenda which is usually given swift disposal lasted about 30 minutes. Not bad - the work of two committees in less than 45 minutes. Some would call this efficiency! Contagious Air There must have been something contagious in the air a week ago last Monday night - Scar- borough council members didn't seem to be in too great a hurry to get back to work after their dinner 20 minutes late. Only two politicians failed to return after the dinner break - Aldermen Florence Cruickshank and Kurt Christensen. Mrs. Cruickshank was ill with a virus and can be excused for going and staying home but where -oh -where was K.C. A cynic would say that Perhaps he was out cam- paigning! On Sitting Around The quote of the week belongs to Alderman John Mackie who was heard to remark: -We spent $20,000 in staff time to decide whether to give a $5,000 grant. " Mackie was referring to the lengthy debate at coun- cil earlier that day over whether to approve a Board of Control recom- break.

Bill Watt's Worlds ON YOUR TOES - The concl%Wkig presenta- tion of the National Ballet's Spring engagement at The O'Keefe has been a presen- tation of three one act ballets. In two of them prin- cipal dancer Veronica Ten- nant proves once again that she is a complete dancer - arguably the fbiest in the company - and effectively makes a case for being declared prima ballerina aaaotlotta The rust wet was the deservedly enduring and charming Les Syphides. It is an ethereal work intend- ed to represent the dream revery of a poet. Such, however, is the artistry of Miss Tennant that the ob- ject becomes the virtual subject. A step by step critique of her artistry would serve lit- tle purpose and, in any case, is probably beyond our ability to produce. How does one translate into print ethereal majesty? How does one describe the impact of her superb port de bras and her well nigh technically perfect pas de bourrees? We can't and have no intention of trying. Let it suffice that an oppor- tunity to see Miss Tennant dancing Les Sylphides should not be denied one's self. In fairness we should mention her fellow artists . . the majestic Peter Ott - mann, the meteorically ris- ing Kim Lightheart and the always dependable Cynthia Lucas. Consider them men- tioned and accept our words that their perfor- mances were more than adequate; they were ex- cellent but in the presence .of Miss Tennant they became a virtual frame for a work of individual art. The second work was Can- ciones and in it Miss Ten- nant transforms from ethereality - if there is such a word - into earth stomp- ing, tomping, hip swinging sen- suality! Canciones is a recent work by Constantin Pat- salas and frankly, not all that great. It is a choreographing exercise to the music of 20th century Spanish composers played on a single concert grand and sung by a mezzo- soprano. In our view it is not so much a ballet as visual accompaniment to a song recital. As a recital it is a most pleasant experience. The music is throbbingly ex- citing and beautifully ar- ticulated at piano by Gary Arbour and transformed (there's that word again!) into passion by the rich voice and nice interpreta- tion of the lyrics by Janet Stubbs. All very nice in- deed but not the stuff of which mernorabie ballet is made. Enter however, Miss Ten- nant with something that one imagines sports waiters might describe as the old college try. She sw- ings her hips, thrusts her pelvis forward, tosses her head. glances flirtatiously and invitingly . . she becomes Carmen, indeed the very essence of her. More than that though, she apparently lifts her fellow artists above their relatively mundane material. Kevin Pugh is even more explosive than one has come to expect. Peter Ottmann might well be an Escamillo and Sabina Allemann rises to the heights projected by Miss Tennant. It has been written that Mr. Palsalas will create only to scores he loves; that the music always comes first. Funny, we have always felt that the choreography is the prime consideration. Regardless, it remains that Mr. Pat- salas should be mightily grateful for a company such as The National and particularly dancers such as Miss Tennant that can take his self indulgences and make of them something approximating art. Canciones is not art but Miss Tennant and her abili- ty to extend those who dance with her can almost make one believe it is. Cer- tainly she makes it enter- taining. The final work of the even- ing was the world premiere of something ridiculous titl- ed "Blue Snake" conceived and choreographed by Robert Desrosiers to whom Danny Grossman should owe a debt of gratitude. Desrosiers is, we believe, even worse than -Grossman. Any success that might be achieved by "Blue Snake" will we nothing to his choreography which ar- ticulates into nothing more than a succession of dancers apparently audi- tioning to do a commercial for a product to relive burn- ing rectal itch! One supposes it's difficult to do but then so is Japanese sumo wrestling and who has ever con- sidered that pleasing to the eye? Blue Snake" is little more than a display of Kabuki break dancing as it might be performed by Monty Python's Flying Cir- cus! There is more that should be said but we note vitriol entering into this critique and we wish to avoid it. Let us conclude then by of- fering some advice to Robert Desrosiers. You've had your chance at the big time and you blew it. Your efforts might well have been sincere though the derisive laughter of that part of the audience that appreciates ballet would seem to indicate only an awareness of charlatanism. Regardless. you've tried and had your chance. Now, do us all a favour and get lost. Don't ever try to introduce such offal again to a company such as The National. There's a good chap. ON STAGE: From Blue Snake we go to the white whale and a pro- duction of Moby Dick just opened at the Ritz. (That's the old Vaughan Theatre on St. Clair just west of Bathurst.) About the best we can say for it is that it makes Blue Snake look relatively good by comparison. Rarely have we ex- perienced a more boring evening of theatre and such a waste of true talent. Every one of the actors is good, really good but the material with which the cast has been encumbered by Steven Rumbelow ( the surname is appropriate for a sea story) who adapted the Herman Melville story and directed it is more than any performer should be expected to declaim. It's a clicW in the media to say "Was he actually at the theatre?" when a reviewer seemingly misses the point of a production. Well, we were indeed at The Ritz and would paraphrase has Mr. Rumbelow actually read Moby Dick? Obviously he has but has either misundertsood or chosen to ignore its chief thrust. The narrative line is turgid and the directorial technique unabashedly or unknowningly excessive. Listen friends, we're star- ting to sound like a miserable old uggerbay which is alien to what we intend in these scribblings of ours. It might be that there is something in this production that we have missed, some intention that hasn't made itself clear to us but we must be true to our training and our in- stincts when we suggest that one attends this pro- duction without our recom- mendation. It will have been noted that we have not mentioned the excellent cast by names. That's deliberate. We do not intend to embar- rass them. Mr. Rumbelow must accept the full weight of responsibility for the failure of this possibly well intended production. AT THE OPERA: We suggest that the perfect first" opera is Mozart's Cosi Fan Tutte, the perfect location for it is the Bluma Apple Theatre in the St. Lawrence Centre and the perfect production 17, wad. Mar. 6, 1965 THE NEWSMOST Paps 5 of it by the Ensemble of the Canadian Opera Company. The opera is light and fill- ed with the glorious melodies of Mozart that fall in cascades of pleasant sound upon the ears of the auditor. The daPonte libretto is a well con- structed trifle upon which we rather think Molnar depended when he wrote The Guardsman. The Bluma Apple Theatre is gorgeous (it reminds us of the Music Box in New York) and so well con- structed that one is never far from the stage and can enjoy not only the singing but also the acting. And, what singing and what acting in this produc- tion! We fear we're runn- ing out of space but we simply must mention the cast in full even if only to bring their names to public attention and future enjoy- ment. Bass Maurice Brown is essence of amused and bemused cynicism as Don Alfonso. Beautifully he baits Ferrando (tenor Peter Blanchet) and Gugliehno ( baritone John Fanning) into testing the fidelity of their sweethearts Dorabella ( mezzo soprano Odette Beauprc ) and Fiordiligi (soprano Joanne Kolomy- jec) . And. of course. there is every soprano's delight, the role of Despina the mischievous chambermaid U1183191 ONUS M v4sv When you make a 95t deposit On your Special Portrait riwartinnl played and sung beguiling- ly by Susan Tsagkaris. Let us mention also the fine conducting from the keyboards of Derek Bate. His control of the orchestra and the sound he coaxes out of it is a perfect marriage of the pit and the stage. It matters little for us to state that the singing is thrilling. Yes, we know it's difficult to go wrong with the melodies of Mozart but that is always assuming perfection of the instru- ment. Mozart's melodies are difficult to sing but the C.O.C. Ensemble is more than equal to the challenge. After blue snakes and white whales, an evening of Mozart is like manna and this production of Cosi Fan Tutte by this fine company in such a fine theatre close to a paradise of sight and sound.

With the growing number of Ringette players across Canada, the program is designed to evahuate and develop the skills of athletes, and motivate them to achieve the ultimate goal - the gold award. The progam will also help Ringette coaches and players evaluate their overall ability in Ringette, specifically in the areas of forward and backward skating, agility, ring handl- ing and shooting skills. Scientifically designed at the University of Ottawa, the tests are a good measure of overall Ringette ability. As well as kicking off a two-year sponsorship agreement between Shop- pers Drug MartiPhar- maprix, Micron/Lange, and Ringette Canada for the Skill Awards, the pro- gram demonstrates the tremendous co-operation and financial contribution that the sponsors are mak- ing to Ringette. Shoppers Drug Mart, a popular national drug store chain, also contributes to Ringette's newsletter, Ringette Review, promo- tional programs, skills poster, National Cham- pionships, the annual Winterlude tournament and audio-visual produc- tions.

Board To Continue 25 Years Dinners by Gay Abbate The Scarborough Board of Education will continue to hold special dinners for its present and former employees who have work- ed for the board for at least 25 years despite rising costs. The Board's Proper- ty and Finance Committee voted to hold its annual 25 year club dinner even though the cost this year could run as much as $30,000. In past years, the dinners have been held at the Prince Hotel in North York but the estimated number of guests this year - 600 - re- quires a change in locale. This year, the dinner will be held at the Metro Toron- to Convention Centre on Thurs. Oct. 17. The cost per plate will be $20. however, the bar bill will significantly increase this amount.

CALL GRANT'S CARPENTRY '757-5047 Look Into Providing Dental Treatment by Gay Abbate Scarborough is one of two municipalities in Metro Toronto not to provide municipally funded school dental treatment program. The other municipality is East York. Scarborough Alderman Joe DeKort says it is time the city looked into pro- viding dental treatment for children whose parents do not have a dental plan at their place of employment. Last week. DeKort made a pitch before the Scar- borough Board of Health which, according to the alderman, fell on deaf ears. DeKort appeared before the board with George Naj- jar, a Scarborough resident with four children who wanted to know why his taxes were not being used to provide dental treatment as is done in four cities in Metro. DeKort said he is very angry at the reception he recieved. "The board was rude and completely out of control. The members wouldn't even consider .............................. was the only one to vote against the dinner, defend- ed the continuation of the event calling it a good morale booster. Board Chairman Patricia Collie said that $30,000 was "a small thing the board does for the people who have worked for the board for over 25 years." Collie said that the dinner would be moved to Scar- borough once the planned hotel in the town centre area is built with banquet facilities large enough to accommodate the numbers who turn out for this annual event. by Gay Abbate house as well as doing the Scarborough Council has fund-raising. stepped in to save part of Scarborough's heritage.

What the Board of Health did decide to do was to take another look at DeKort's suggestion only in connec- tion with the new dental programs which have to be implemented under the re- quirements of the new Health Protection and Pro- motion Act. No one knows exactly how much it will cost to imple- ment all the new programs made mandatory by the provincial government. One of the problems with implementing a dental treatment program is that the province pays for only 16% of the funding necessary to start up and operate such a program. The estimated cost of star- ting up a limited program such as Etobicoke's would be $100.000 plus $125.000 in annual operating costs. The program would consist of setting up 3 to 4 mobile clinics in rent free loca- tions. However, parents would have to meet a means test before their children would be eligible for dental care. North York which has no means test, has a more comprehensive program which is available to all students who need dental treatment. However, this type of program requires about $1 million to set up and $1.1 million per year to keep running. If fixed treatment centres were provided instead of mobile centres, the start up cost could climb to as much as $9 million. A third option would re- quire no start up cost and only a very small budget. This program would have the city pay private den- tists to treat children iden- tified as requiring urgent treatment but whose parents cannot afford to pay. DeKort says he will now approach the school board to ask that it consider some form of dental insurance for school children. One of the members of Board of Health, Alderman Brian Ashton, says dental care should not be paid through property taxes. In- stead, the province should set up a universal scheme and premiums paid along the lines of OHIP, Ashton says. Infant Nutrition Concern About Chubby Babies Creates Questionable Feeding Habits Too often, parents are told, "Fat babies will be- come overweight children and then obese adults." While no one would ar- gue that prevention is bet- ter than treatment, this "fear of fat" may have been taken too far. It has W to some infant feeding practices of very question- able benefit — practices such as feeding young in- fants skim milk. "I hate to see the in- fluences of the dieting craze being carried into in- fant feeding," says Dr. David Yeung, Infant Nu- tritionist with the H.J. Heinz Company of Can- ada Ltd. "A balanced meal pattern, with plenty of fruits and vegetables, is just as important for an in- fant as for an adult. Infant fruits and vegetables pro- vide many essential vita- mins and minerals, with- out an excess of calories." Yeung points out that controlled research studies have shown that fat in- fants are not destined to remain fat. Infants seem to gain weight in spurts. At one month they may ap- pear to be heavy for their height, and then a few months later they have a normal weight." In a cooperative study with the National Research Council, the H.J. Heinz Company followed the growth patterns of 400 Canadian infants over a four-year period. No in- fant remained in the obese category for the entire time. "It's important that parents not panic if their baby looks -chubby," says Yeung. "Discuss the baby's eating pattern with your physician. He will have maintained a record of the baby's growth both in height. weight and head circumference. That re- cord can indicate if the baby's growth is at a nor- mal rate." "We don't advocate overfeeding infants, but at the same time, we don't Spring Shape Up -Get Started Now! The moment of truth has arrived! This is the time of year when most Canadians find thernseMes standing before their mirrors assessing the damages of winter and the past holiday season. If you're like most people, chances are you'd need to shed those unwanted pounds that have managed to creep up unnoticed. The KNOX Health and Beauty Bureau recommends the following 'get ready for Spring' diet, exercise and cooking tips to help get you started. EXERCISING It takes more than just diet- ing to get your body in shape. Aerobic exercises are the fastest way to burn calories and get fn. Here are a few suggestions to Set you in shape with a min- imum of time and effort. RUNNING Running is excellent for ton- ing and firming calves, thighs and buttocks. If you don't have the time to run one or two miles a day then RUN DON'T WALK TO AND FROM: • the bus stop • upstairs and downstairs • walking the dog (he'll enjoy it as much as you) • your corner store . and any other place you can think of. WALKING Everyone at sometime has to walk somewhere. So when you walk, do it briskly and make it count! • Ignore escalators and eleva- tors take the stairs • Lcav'e your car at home whenever possible • Walk after dinner, or curb your appetite and walk before • Put your whole body into your walk. Swing arms, lift knees high and walk tall. DANCING It's fun, lifts spirits and works wonders for your body. Set time aside just for you and join your neighorhood dancercise class. If you don't have time to take formal classes, put on your favorite music and have fun get- ting fit at home. About 20 min- utes a day, three to four times a meek will keep you looking and keting great. TRICKS 'N TiPS I. Buy tan cuts of meat most veal, chicken and fish are best. 2. Broil or bake NEVER fry! 3. Reduce your salt intake. You can loose excess water by simply reducing your sodium intake. 4. Try cooking with wine heat makes alcohol calories evaporate, leaving a rich - tasting but lower calorie sauce. S. Never shop on an empty stomach. Studies show con- sumers who shop on an empty stomach are more likely to buy impulsively. 6. Eat plenty of high -fibre foods. Whole wheat breads, bran cereals, pasta, and fruits and vegetables all ex- pand in the stomach leaving you feeling full, longer. 7. Eat slowly!

A well-rounded meal pattern for a baby over six months of age will include all of the nutrients provid- ed by milk, cereals, fruits and vegetables and meats. A variety of commercial infant foods is an ideal way to provide this nutri- tion." The H.J. Heinz Com- pany of Canada Ltd. has just introduced a new line of IOOQ/o Natural instant fruits and vegetables. These infant foods have no sugar, no salt and no preservatives. They are made solely from purees of the natural fruits and vegetables by a unique quick cooking and drying process which retains the nutritional value and fresh flavor. These Heinz Instant Baby Foods are sold in convenient plastic color - coded canisters — yellow for fruits and green for vegetables. Each 35g can- ister provides approx- imately four sevings and costs 89 cents, making it equivalent in price, on a cost -per -serving basis, to jarred baby food.

Or more accurately, tourism in Canada used to be a big business, creating jobs for thousands, plus many other beneficial spinoffs, and could be again. I guess my experience of the so-called "hospitality business" in Ontario and Pickering, with certain excep- tions, is that it is not very "hospitable" any more. Gee, if only cashiers at restaurants could muster up a simple "Thank You" when you pay you bill, it would help. Most places, it seems almost like an imposition on their time. Wouldn't it be nice to go into a restaurant where they're glad to see you and make you feel they welcome your patronage and that you are wanted. I think if that ever hap- pened to me, as a constant traveller in Ontario I just wouldn't know how to cope. It's the little touches that count in the hospitality business. A glass of cold water with ice without having to beg for it. Servers who are enthusiastic in seeing that your stay at their place is an enjoyable one. Restaurant managers who have a little warmth and know the value of good public rela- tions, who know how to greet people and make them feel glad they came. The larger questions of prices and rates is important also. Frankly, in my humble opinion, Canadian prices for meals, accommodations, and gas. are outrageous and you don't get the value for the dollar. In spite of stories to the con- trary, the prices are much better in France, England, and the United States, and generally the value is there. And the wage rates for employees are just as comparable, from what I can discern. And wouldn't it be a good idea to reduce our high speed rate on major highways? You know, put a little friendliness and warmth and courtesy back into that aspect of our lives, and cut out this crazy, competitive, adversarial driving. We could do so much to encourage people from other countries to come and see us. This week I would like to clear up any misgivings that you may have developed since the Federal Government released its Consultation Paper on Child and Elderly Benefits. The objective of the review is to refuse and im- prove programs so that they best meet the needs of Canadian families and Canadian society. One of the greatest needs is to en- sure that benefits get to those who need the most, particularly low-income Canadians. Let me assure you that the review of social pro- grams does not challenge the concept of universaha- ty as one of the principles of Old Age Security. Fluther, the Government is not interested in in- troducing any form of means -test. There are other ways of ensuring that benefits get to those who need them the most.

Phil Gillies, Ontario Minister without Portfolio for Youth and the Hon. Flora MacDonald, Minister of Employment and Immigration signed a joint agreement - Challenge '85 Ontario/Canada - that will en- sure close to 92,000 jobs this summer for Ontario students. Total funding in excess of $115 million has been committed by both the provincial and federal governments (Ontario's contribution is $73.7 million) to provide this package of summer programs to meet the needs and priorities of both students and employers. "The new spirit of cooperation and harmony between the two levels of government has allowed us to move toward complementary programming that eliminates program overlap" indicated Mr. Gillies. Under Challenge '85 Ontario/ Canada, the Ontario Youth Employment Program (OYEP) provides wage subsidies to private -sector employers who offer students practical work experience during the summer. Interest-free loans of up to $2,000 will again be available to Students this summer under Ontario's Student Venture Capital Program which encourages young people to put their ideas and themselves to work by lau nclung their own businesses. Both the Summer Experience and Student Venture Capital programs are ongoing programs under the direction of the Provincial Secretary for Social Development and are ad- ministered by the Ontario Youth Secretariat. The Ontario Youth Commissioner, Ken Dryden, stressed that the overall success of the joint summer program hinges on the willingness of the private sector to hire students. "Our young people are bright and energetic- With proper direction, they can make a company stronger and more than pay for thensselves," indicated Mr. Dryden.

The purpose of this review is not simply to save money to help reduce the Federal deficit. While reducing the deficit re- maia5 a priority, it need not over -ride the im- mediate needs in the social policy area. The Govern- ment is, however, in- terested in hearing the views of Canadians on whether savings from the review of child benefits should all be redirected to low-income families with children or whether some or all of these savings might be redistributed ac- cording to priority con- cerns in some other area of social policy. Essentially, the goal of the consultation process is to glean ideas on how to im- prove what is already a fairly good system. We are not out to bring radical changes to the system, but rather to improve the system so that it will work even better in protecting the rights of Canadians. The ideas presented in the Paper are not to be misconstrued as Govern- ment proposals or policy; they are there only to serve as a starting point for discussion. It is the policy of the Progressive Conser- vative Government to give Canadians a true voice in the governing process. I hope you will take an active interest in this opportunity. Norah Stoner, Pickering Regional Councillor Ward 3 "Everything's Coming Up Roses for You and for Me". The lyrics of that familiar old song come immediately to mind when reading the most recent report of the Regional Com- missioner of Economic Development. Bearing in mind that every increase in commercial and in- dustrial assessment means an easier tax load for all of us who are residential rate payers, this summary of develop• ment by our able Commissioner, Gerard Gervais, makes pleasant reading. Some of the highlights are as follows: The increase in the value of industrial budding permits issued in 1984 over 1983 are substantial - $77.5 million in 1984 as opposed to $122 million in 1983. An increase of 535% in the category which Mr. Gervais describes as "the cornerstone of economic development". A rough estimate of new jobs created by this increased in- dustrial floor space is 1,925 positions. In addition, Alcan Aluminum, Purdue Frederick Inc. and D. k R. Custom Steel are all building new Pickering plants for which per- mits have not yet been granted. Commercial Development is another major source of assessment and jobs. 1984 per- mits are valued at $41.4 million compared to $13.8 million in 1963 - an improvement of approximately 201%• $14,184,000 of this is JDS commercial development in the Town of Pickering in 1984. It is anticipated that the Commercial Development will create 2,400 new jobs. Residential permits were $189.5 million in 1984 - an in- crease of 7.4% over the 1983 value of $176.5 million. There are indications that there is a shift from "starter homes" to larger, more expensive homes. This is good for the future as more middle and upper management personnel will move into the area. Larger homes and more mature families place fewer demands on the public services in the area so the relative tax burden of this type of development is minimal. Anyone wishing to receive a copy of Mr. Gervais' complete report should contact me at my office - 683 -VW and I would be pleased to forward it.
