Do seals have any natural enemies' How do they live' M.B. A. Seals do have natural enemies. The predator may vary depending upon what region the seal is in. They have several marine predators. These include large sharks, killer whales and polar bears. There are many varieties of seals but they do have many common features in their lifestvies. Thev feed exclusively upon the flesh of various types of fish• cephalopods• macroplankton, shellfish, seabirds and, on occasion, other seals. Diet can vary greatly between seal species. The average life -span of a female northern fur seal is 8-12 years, although some survive 2U-30 years. Seals very seldom live longer than 40 years, however. Natural mortali- ty is very high, especially among the young. A key factor in their survival is their speed and agility in the water and their diving capabilities. Seals have streamlined bodies conducive to swimming. Skin and body fat layers are structured for warmth, buoyancy and padding. Although seals breathe air, they can stay submerged for up to 40 minutes. For especially deep dives seals empty their lungs before diving. This in- creases their ability to withstand the pressures felt at dep- ths. Oxygen is drawn from blood hemoglobin and muscle myoglobin at such times. During a dive blood circulation is curtailed to the body. Only brain and vital internal organs receive high or normal levels of oxygen. The heart rate slows and the body temperature drops to conserve oxygen. This �space �could �be��. yours for just $13.00 per week kids in the old years used to do.

There are marry details lacking concerning seals and their life cycles. It can be said that their hearing is acute. Their vision is better in than out of the water, though sight does not seem to be the most essential sense in seals. Coarse whiskers around eyes and lips are very important for tactile sensing.

Do you have them' P.S. A. The game you mention is probably "scissors, paper, stone". It is an ancient game for two players. The premise of the game is that scissors can cut paper, paper can wrap stone and stone can dull scissors. The players conceal their hands and choose a hand position representing one of the objects (2 fingers extended for scissors; an open palm for paper; a closed fist for stone). The selection is revealed on the count of 3 (players may take turns counting). The player with the dominant object wins the round. If both select the same sign it is a tie. Customarily a number of turns are set at the beginning and the highest score wins. As with any other game, different people play for different stakes, some more painful than others. rnrn cu leu _ eCJic�son's Pickering Needs Hospital Pickering Town Council has approved a resolution that a Health Needs Study be submitted to the Durham Region District Health Council, outlining its concerns with the provi- sions of health services to meet future needs of the residents of Pickering. The concerns outlined in the study include the need for increased funding of services for the elderly, particularly chronic care facilities; The need for smaller chronic care facilities located in each municipali- ty rather than larger regional chronic care facilities; The need for improved ambulance service in- cluding 24-hour per day service frau a local depot and more depots, The need for a hospital located within Pickering to provide Pickering residents with better ac- cess to emergency, out- patient and acute care facilities; The need to encourage Pickering residents to use the Ajax -Pickering Hospital rather than the Scarborough hospitals since the funding for im- provements is directly related to visitation rates; The need for the Ministry of Health to reexamine the hospital funding system so that other criteria in- cluding size of local popula- tion are considered; The need for community health care centres which concentrate on preven- tative health care through education and nutrition counselling; The need for physicians to provide evening and weekend office hours to serve the residents who commute; 'Rte need for day time carne and assistance for the elderly and handicapped; and community mental health needs.

Jul• 16, 19116 Opinion a page for expression for you and us All Wrong Prime Minister Brian Mulroney is making a large mistake in his dialogue on television about South Africa. He has referred to the South African government as an "evil regime", which has to be a very wrong use of words. We may not agree with that government's actions but it is not an "evil" regime. Such a term could be used to describe the former government in The Philippines. or the Soviet Union where dissenters are sent to Siberia or given needles - that is evil. Mr. Mulronev must be listening to some very poor advice if he feels that Canada can help South Africa by sanctions and the use of the word "evil". He should be criticizing the Soviet Union's infiltration of the African National Congress and its obvious attempt to have control of all of Africa. Where was our Prime Minister when Cuban troops ran all over Africa carrying out the will of the Soviet Union? Has Mr. Mulroney ever talked to a black South African belong- ing to the Zulu tribes' We expect that like his colleague. Joe Clark, when he was Prime Minister, he does not understand Africa, the Middle East and Asia. which is completely different that here in North America. We cannot apply ]North American rules to fit these other areas of the world. The one key thing to realize is that Africanners are not Canadians and will not react to threats and sanctions of trade. Canada should be using a friendly persuasion ap- proach with logical thinking and a more positive outlook. When our prime minister was head man in a large cor- poration he would have been highly insulted if trade unionists placing demands on him suggested that he was "evil". The arrival of an agreement to change anything takes much dialogue and decent argument to arrive at a reasonable point. Mr. Mulroney has just used the dictator approach to South Africa. This may bring him praise from those black countries where the leaders are Marxists and Communists. but the sensible black leaders in South Africa are pleading for no sanctions but want discussions. In our opinion, a tough sanctions approach to South Africa will force a blood bath. whereas dialogue and verbal persuasion wound be far more effective in evolving a better deal in South Africa for the non-Africanner. An Historic Victory Dear Sirs. blery Lavigne has won an historic victory in the Supreme Court of Ontario for the individual freedom of millions of Canadian workers. Justice John White has ruled that "the use of compulsory dues for purposes other than collective bargaining...canriot be justified in a free and democratic society.' His victory is proof that the litle guy can still get justice in Canada, even when opposed by the might of big unionism. Although he was not alone - his court challenge was backed by thousands of supporters of the National Citizens' Coah- tion - it was an uphill batle all the way. The scope of the victory is huge. More than three million Canadian workers are forced to pay more than $1.3 billion in dues each year to unions. John Fryer, president of the National Union of Provincial Government Employees• estimates that 15-20% of dues are used to support political parties and causes. If he's right, that could mean a union elite is funnelling about S200 million tntp political action each year. We feel strongly that Canadian should not be compelled to support political views with which they disagree. We agree with John Milton: "Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue ac- cording to conscience, above all liberties." To Mery Lavigne and all those Canadians from sea to sea who supported him. we can only say: "thank you for stan- ding up for freedom." Sincerely, Colin Brown, President.

Mainstream Canada Freer trade unites big firms and small By Tom Carimn They say business is business. But what they say ain't nooes- sarily so. What's good for Big Business isn't always best for Small Business. The goverment punch that the big boys are able to absorb with hardly a ruffle of corporate feathers an have knockout written all over it for the tittle guy - That's why, from time to time, you'll sec spokespersons for the two sectors on different sides of the fence. But that's not the case these days when it comes to probably the most important issue of this or any other year—free trade. In fact, the two most power- ful business organizations in the country have jointed forces for the first time in memory to go to bat for a more liberal trade arrangement with the United States. Thomas d'Aquino, president of the Business Council on Na- tional Issues which represents the chief executives of 150 of the nation's largest corporations, and John Bulloch, whose Cana- dian Federation of Independent Business speaks for 76,000 small and medium-sized firms, shared the national media spotlight in recent days, launching a cam- paign to back the initiative on freer trade. Why this marriage of Big Business and Small? Simple, says Bulloch. Free trade is a 21st Century idea, a non-partisan issue that all Cana- dians must come to grips with if we are to be a viable country in the coming years. The scenario, in much simpli- fied form, goes like this. The in- credible technological leaps be- ing made every day mean that national boundaries are swiftly becoming meaningliess. Countries will have to become more specialized as more and more regions enter the techno- logical/information era. De- vekvuV nations will become tougher competitors for urs, ex- ploiting their advantages, such as lower labor costs. to product goods for the world. For them, and for every na- tion. it will mean finding and de- veloping a niche in the interna- tional marketplace. For us in Canada, and the U.S. for that matter, that means restructuring the economy to exploit our advantage in knowledge -intensive services— education, training, turnkey operations and so on. It is not the end of manufacturing in North America. Rather it is a shift in focus: in future, we will be exporting more services and importing more goods. Freer trade with the U.S., then, becomes a first step in the adjustment, for if we can't com- pete in the North American market, how on earth are we ever going to go head to head against the emerging economic giants such as Brazil and the Far East. "Our Canadianism is not at stake here," says the CFIB's Bulloch, lambasting politicians for playing on old fears in the face of a new order. "What is at stake is the kind of future we want to have for our children and grandchildren. "We see no reasonable alter- native, no Option B.

Notes Better Trade Relationships A better trade relationship with the United States is only a first step for Canada and must be part of a longer-term strategy to compete on a global basis, says George A. Peap- ples, president of General Motors of Canada Limited. In a speech prepared for delivery to GM Day festivities at Expo 86. Peappl s said the Canada -U.S. Auto Pact is an ex- cellent example of how closer trade with the U.S. has benefitted the auto industry. "Our experience with the Auto Pact is ample proof that access to the large U.S. market is important, and can sustain important scale economies." But he added that the agreement should apply fairly and uniformly to all who participate in Canada's leading in- dustry, including the foreign automakers.

Japan with a precious - and mammoth - General Motors of Canada Limited shipment. The vessel had aboard one of nine presses destined for GM of Canada's new stamping plant at the site of "Autoplex" in Oshawa. The press, in its knocked -down form, will consist of 233 crates, with an approximate gross weight of 3,500 short tons. The unloading of the vessel is expected to take six to eight days and will involve about 70 loads over a route from the docks to the plant, each of them with a police escort. The three largest pieces are expected to take four to six hours each to transport. The Chevrolet -Pontiac Canada group of General Motors is ordering 90 of these presses with nine destined for use in the Oshawa plant. Carrier Routes Open!

More Community Diaries On Page 5 Report From Parliament Hill by Bob Hicks MP Scarborough East The summer season is once again upon us, and with it come plans for vacations and travel. If you intend to em- bark on an overseas trip this summer, there are some points you should consider before departing so that you may enjoy as care -free a vacation as possible. Before you leave Canada, it is wise to ask Canada Customs for a form Y-38, on which you list the valuables (cameras, binoculars, etc.... ), and their serial numbers, which you shall be taking with you. This will prevent com- plications when crossing international boundaries, as it establishes that you owned the articles before departure, and can therefore re -import them to Canada duty and tax- free. Jewellry will not be documented in this way due to the dif- ficulty in its identification. As such, you would be well ad- vised to leave valuable jewellry in Canada. If you must travel with jewellry, however, I advise that you obtain an appraisal report from a qualified jeweller or insurance agent, and then have a photograph of the item taken, signed and dated, certifying that the jewellry in question is the same as that listed on the appraisal report. This establishes your ownership of the item, and its value, in the eyes of Canada Custom. If, upon returning home, you cannot prove that you owned the items before leaving Canada, it is possible that you will be assessed an import duty based on the value of the goods in question. Canadian citizens do not require passports to visit the United States or Mexico, but some proof of Canadian citizenship will be required. It is best to consult with the diplomatic posts in Canada of the countries you intend to visit abroad to determine what travel documentation those countries require to permit your entry. ( Foreign Con- sulates are listed in the white pages of your phone direc- tory) . If, while overseas, you must surrender your passport to a foreign official and it is not returned to you in a reasonable time, report this fact as soon as possible to the nearest Canadian diplomatic mission. If you possess "dual nationality" ( you are a citizen of Canada and of another country simultaneously). contact the diplomatic mission of that country in Canada so as to determine if there are any outstanding obligations to which you mai .ie subject when you arrive in that country. Upon you return to Canada, you will be asked a number of questions, orally or in writing. These all have a purpose. For example. your "Declaration" form will ask if you in- tend to visit a rural or farm area in the near future. This in- formation is necessary so as to protect Canada's environ- ment and agricultural crops from the accidental importa- tion fo viruses and disease harmful to our plant and animal life. These are but a few suggestions to facilitate a trouble- free holiday outside Canada, but there are many other fac- tors to consider when travelling. U you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact my constituency office at 439-%52, and I shall ar- range to make available to you booklets on hints and regulations for travel abroad. Have a pleasant summer and enjoy your trip. COMM)"\Z' DIARY Fm "t Pag 4 WED. JULY 23 10:30 a -m.

Centennial United Church by Millie Hull Have you had a dream and lost it' Did you have great puns for the future that was -bead of you and things came along which prevented you from fulfill- ing those plans' We start our lives think- ing of what we hope to do and often circturtstances make it impossible to do those things. Moses was going to do great things for his im- prisoned people but he made a mistake, killing a temple guard, and had to flee, return to his people and he became a lowly Then he saw the burning bush and heard God's voice calling. He was told the ground on which he stood was holy ground. Maybe where you are standing is also holy ground. Stop to listen and perhaps you too will find a mission. It may lead to the same dreams you once had but by a different route. Maybe your thinking needs to be changed so that you can follow another way. Take a moment to look into your disappoint- ments and perhaps you too will find fulfillment and that lost dream. Many of our people are now enjoying vacations and we wish them a happy restful time of renewal. A few are not well - Elbert Closson is still in hospital and has good days and bad days; Grace Wade has been ill and we hope whe will soon be well again. We were very happy to have Al and Nancy Proctor with us this week. Nancy has been gravely ill for almost a year and it is just wonderful to see her look- ing well again and we hope her health will continue to improve. Maryann Verner, our organist, is still under doc- tor's care and we hope her forthcoming vacation will give her time to return to good health once again. smokers. As well the committee ex- empted pubs, taverns and public houses from having to provide any no smoking area at all. The same ap- plies to small restaurants with forty or less seats. The only area where the -restaurant owners did not get their own way was in a requirement that the no smoking area never be reduced to below the 20 per cent minimum. Bob Bruce, president of the Scarborough Hotel, Motel and Restaurant Association, argued that restaurants need the flex- ibility to make the no smok- ing area smaller if patron demand requires it. However. Alderman John Wardrope says tat with 70 per cent of the Canadian population non- smokers, it is highly unlike- ly such a demand for almost total smoking would occur. If council approves the amended by-law, Scar- borough will be the only municipality in Metro to re- quire less than 30 per cent no smoking seating. The restaurant associa- tion has said it is agreeable to the no smoking area be- ing increased to 30 per cent in 1987 with the size being subject to an annual review thereafter. Scarborough Controller Joyce Trimmer, one of the prime forces behind the development of a no smok- ing by-law, was very angry with the committee deci- sion. "Some councillors are more upset about upsetting some businessmen who have no figures to back up their statement that they will lose business as a result of the no smoking by- law than they are concern- ed about the health of the public," Trimmer said. She accused committee and the restaurant owners of "playing games with peoples' lives."

Canada's early past is the focus of The Mocassin Walk. Saturdays and Sun- days in July, at 11:30 a.m. During this walk, par- ticipants discover how the Huron Indians, who lived in the area 400 years ago, us- ed everything that the forest had to offer. For ex- ample, a spruce tree was a source of twine. glue, a mild antiseptic and a cure for sore backs. Managing a woodlot is the topic of The Forest of the Future, a nature walk presented on Saturdays and Sundays at 1 p.m. A well-managed woodlot can meet your firewood needs forever — and it isn't dif- ficult to learn how. Amateur naturalists have the opportunity to literally get their feet wet during Stream Safari, a nature walk along, and in, the Humber River. These modern-day explorers see the different species of wildlife that live on the river, such as the great blue heron and the turtle. Stream Safari is presented every Saturday and Sundav in July. at 2 Arabian Horses Compete The Ontario Lupus Association's London Branch is holding its eighth annual benefit Arabian Horse Show at Ekk"on Fairgrounds on Aug. 3.

Lupus, short for Systemic Lupus For Lupus Erythematosus, is a chronic, life-long rheumatic disease which afflicts 75 in every 100.000 people, and can cause damage through inflam- mation to any organ or part of the body. Its cause is unknown as yet and as yet there is no cure. Show competition starts at 9 a.m. and admission to the public is free.

Dreamgirls ends its engagement at The O'Keefe this Saturday. Although we were there an opening night. confusion over filing dates for which your correspondent ac- cepts responsibility, has resulted in our review ap- pearing at this late date. Ordinarily one would not make a strong suit of ex- planation but we feel it im- portant to stress that this is an excellent show and our late review should not, under any circumstance, be conarued to indicate less than our full hearted recommendation of it. Allow us to say that if one's entertainment dollar must be selective, if you see only one show this year, let it be Dreamgirls. It's a huge glitzy show filled with music and spec- tacle true enough but it is even more than that. It is a story of ambition over- powering natural ethics, of the crossover of black popular music to mainstream America, of thwarted love almost destroying a true talent, of crass becoming class, of Black America finally becoming one with White Americries of 'victim crap"te pparanoid although almost operatic in construction it has an honest to heaven happy en- ding. Can one, dare one, ask for anything more? Protestations to the con- trary, Dreamgirls is based on the careers of The Supremes and the music is that of the late sixties and early seventies... rhythm and blues underscored by soul and cotton candied in- to mainstream rather like the Mississippi delta to Las Vegas by way of Detroit. It's loud, rhythmic and fun even when it's hurtin'. Out of the huge cast it's difficult to pay proper tribute to all who deserve it but there are some who simply must be mentioned. Sharon Brawn plays the pari of Effie, the best of the original Dreamgirls but asked to sing back up because her voice and presence is just too power- ful for the crossover au- dience the group's manager sets out to cap- ture. She is in love with that same manager and when he rejects her to concen- trate on the new lead singer she descends into a bit- terness and self pity that almost ruins her life as well as her career. She has three solos and all are effective but her singing of one. And I am Telling You I'm Not Going, is simply gut wrenching in its power and emotion. As her love mangue, Weyman Thompson is ef- fective as is Alisa Gyse as the new lead - read Diana Ross - and in any other pro- duction they would be stellar. No one can be on the same stage as Miss Brown without suffering, however slightly by com- parison. Particularly crowd Pleasing is Herbert Rawl- ings as James Thunder Early. In a role that seems to be a composite of James Brown and Bill Robinson with a soupcon of Cab Calloway and Bon Bon LeBel thrown in for good measure, he sings and dances with an elan tha en- compasses all aspects of the performing arts. We repeat our regret over not being able to men- tion all the performers wor- thy of it but we barely have space to make the com- ment that the over all pro- duction is one of the most sumptious we've ever ex- perienced and The O'Keefe handles it beautifully. Dreamgirls is a memorable evening of theatre and should not be missed. Next week at The O'Keefe is Evita for a regrettably short run. We've rather lost track of the number of times we've seen Evita but it never fails to thrill with its power and drama while never losing sight of the fact that it is a musical. One risks sounding like the late Oliver Hardy in suggesting this is another rine show.: SUMMER FL N : There are some who be- moan the fact that "the Im- perial Room is not what it used to be." What is really meant is that it is not now whay they imagine it was. It's a specious observation and usually uttered by those who have never been there. All we know is that since the demise of the Bellevue Casino in Montreal - in- deed, since the demise of Montreal - the Imperial Room is the only place in Canada where one can see a show such as Ecstasy On Ice, which is the summer attraction. Within its limitations of time, space and epherner'aalism it is as ex- citing and glamourous a show as Dreamgirls over at The O'Keefe. And, make no mistake about it this is an honest to Shipstad ice show even though the "ice" is plastic. The regular stage has been extended well into the room and visibility is good from any table in the room, better on the raised level toward the back and pro- bably least attractive along the sides of the stage bet- ween the forward thrust and th orchestra. Actually, that's all by the bye since it's the content of the show that's most im- portant and what content it is! Of course, there is skating but there is also music, singers, dances, jugglers and even a magic Contkitnd on Pow 9 HIGH QUALITY 1!

Scarborough Centre Reports from Queen's Park A CHANCE TO HELP Progressive Conservatives believe that the Ontario Senior Citizen's Privilege Card should be provided to all disabled and retired people in Ontario. P.C. members sup- ported a motion m the Legislature oa June 19th to uphold this privilege. Presently. the card can only be used by residents of the province who are 65 years of age and over. It is used to ob- tain Drug Benefits but also entitles bearers to discounts and privileges from museums. parks, stores, hotels. transporta- tion lines and other services. Extending the use of the card to these needy and deserv- ing citizens would allow them the same access to discotatts and privileges. Jack Johnson. M.P.P. for WeUington- Dufferin-Peel said that, ..this is an excellent opportunity to improve the quality of life for the disabled and retired of our province.' It would provide the handicapped with an incentive to participate more in the mainstream of society. The disabl- ed are faced with many physical and psychological bar- riers. They need a helping hand to overran these so that they may participate more fully in areas of shared interest with other Ontarians. By making access to institutions, attractions and services financially easier. the handicapped would be afforded more of the same opportunities as other Ontarians. Providing the handicapped with these cards would also ease the fianancial pressures they face. These pressures are due in part to the extraordinarily high rate of unemployment for the employable disabled persons. In addition, the disabled incur costly expenses relating from their disabilities. Clothes wear out more quickly, taxis must be taken more often and attendant care may be re- quired. There are also the costs of aids and devices which are not covered by existing programs. This card can be utilized as a cost-cutting mechanism, not only by the disabled, but by retired citizens also. The ex- tension of this card to all retired Ontarians would present them with benefits, bonuses and discounts which could make financial planning less difficult when employment in- come is drying up. The retirement years should be enjoyable ones during which the elderly may reflect on the fruits of many years in the labour force. However, this time is often a difficult one for those who find it difficult to adjust. Recreational, cultural and educational facilities can offer substantial bonuses to the retired. The use of the privilege card to gain such benefits would make it easier for the retired person to nurture interests during the vast amount of spare time available. his injury was not life .isting •.on...painkillers, threatening and to go Altobello was back to work elsewhere.

There is another type that has two spring-loaded wing which spring open once they are pushed through •he drilled hole and can then be tightened. While these are only two of the may devices that allow you to hang items on a hollow wall, the best way to mount anything to a wall is to use a "stud tinder" and drive a screw through the plaster or drywall into the wood of the stud. This is par- ticularly important if you are mounting a heavy mirror or book- shelf. Ask your CRHA Dealer about stud faders. they can be very handy. If you are mounting into a con- crete or block wall, use a masonry bit to drill the holes and secure with metal anchors. Your local dealer can advise you on how to solve your particular problem.

July 16.191% At Mo sport By Jerry Hudson The Canadian Racing Drivers Association (CRDA) held its annual President's Trophy Races at Mosport Park recently. It was an action -packed weekend, with ten categories of racing machines qualifying on Saturday and the main events running on the follow nrt� day. On Safurday. the Player's Challengge for General Motors Che,*Tolet IROC-Z Camaros and Pontiac Trans -Am Firebirds had a consolation race for drivers who did not manage to qualify for Sun- day's main event. Toronto's Jock Addison• who qualified 43rd earlier, took complete charge with an aggressive drive com- tn� from a starting position of -9th place to take the win and gain a place in Sunday's feature. Addison displayed the talent fans have been ex- pecting of him in driving his No. 15 Pontiac Firebird to the consolation victory. He narrowly beat Hunter Jones of Thunder Bav, On- tario, in a Camaro. Sunday's Player's Challenge feature had some of the closest rac' of the day. Willowdale s Robin Buck. who qualified in the pole position with a time of 1:44.363 led for most of the latter laps closely chased by Richin Spenard of Shhannonville, Ontario. Spenard took his No. 4 IROC-Z Camaro to the win when Buck ran off the track in the final lap. Unionville's Scott Maxwell, driving another Camaro IROC-Z, finished a strong 3rd In the race. The Rothmans 'Porsche Challenge for Porsche 944's also had Maxwell as a very strong contender inhis other car the No. 23 Capricorn Ikacmg 944. Scott started in the pole position after qualifying 1st With a best lap time of 1:44.906, but was squeezed out of the win by Kees Nierop of Kelowna, B.C. Maxwell finished 2nd in this race, with Richard Spenar i following Scott to take 3rd place. The Canadian Tire For- mula 2000 event saw a somewhat perplexed �ror� of drivers as the track was wet for the start of their race.

West Hill s Paul Tracy, the up-and-coming r- 17-yeaold, drove his No. 20 Maple Leaf Racing F2000 Van Dieman to a 5th place finish. The Honda!Michelin feature was also tense and dramatic, but not because of the weather. The race had to be started three times before it finally got underway, as drivers crashed heavily m Corners 4 and 2A on the first two starts. Terry Di Francesco of Toronto narrowly missed the win, coring m 2nd behind Lindsay Riddell of Pierrefonds, Quebec. Willowdale's Geoff Chandler drove his No. 18 Acklands Welding Honda Civic to a 5th place finish. The Becker s Challenge for SuperKarts was dominated by Paul Maskos of West Hill.

Expo '86 /s Worth The Trip by Bob Watson Going to Expo 86 was not a big item on our travel pians. but we were in- fluenced by the fact that we had never been to Van- couver and wanted to see the west coast of Canada. However. visiting Expo 86 was a great experience and we would recommend it to anyone deliberating about whether to go or not. Make sure you have a good set of shoes as there is so much to see. On our trip in June we went in a group flying on Pacific Western with a package from Canadian Friendship Tours. Our flight. mostly over the northern United States. was uneventful except that due to head winds our air- craft had to land at Calgary to refuel to finish the 2300 miles trip. Buses took us on a tour of Vancouver before we arriv- ed at our hotel - the Inter- national Plaza Hotel in North Vancouver. It was a very nice accommodation and from there we went each day by bus. sea bus and sky train to Expo. We must comment here that the transportation system in the Vancouver area was something special. To get to Expo from our hotel in North Vancouver was just a mat- ter of stepping out of the hotel, getting a bus to the sea bus (a fast, efficient ferry boat), which took us to Vancouver and then a speedy ride on the Sky Train to Expo. The whole cost was $1.15 for one ticket! In our travels by public transit - which we used ex- clusively - buses roared down residential streets at about 80 kmh and we didn't notice any speed limit signs on any streets. So if you go to Vancouver, use the public transit, it is very ef- ficient. The Canada Pavilion was certainly an unusual building. While we were there, the "Love Boat" - the Pacific Princess - was moored beside the Canada Pavilion. and the two seem- ed to belong to each other: While going through the Canada Pavilion we met Mayor Jack Anderson and Mrs. Anderson of Picker- ing with a group of local Pickering people with them. Besides the vast array of exhibits at Expo, there are some very unusual movie presentations which ob- viously use new techniques for giving the audience a graphic feeling of involve- ment. At one screening as a man cracks an egg and the yolk falls into a pan, everyone in the theatre jumps because they feel that the egg is falling in their lap' When you go to Expo make sure to get a passport book and at each pavilion get a rubber stamp - it's just like visiting many countries. The passport book then becomes a memento of Expo 86. The Ontario Pavilion was terrific and had huge lineups to see its fantastic films, but it does seem a shame that this $30 million building will be scrapped in October and replace by a high rise apartment. What a waste' Vancouver has such nice mountains to the north and east that is essential that visitors take the cable car to the restaurant on Grouse Mountain for the great view of the Vancouver area. There is skiing up there in the winter. The food at the Grouse Mountain restaurant was delicious, probably the best we enjoyed all week. In restaurants near our hotel it was easy, though. to get a nice dinner for about $8 plus drinks. As we only spent three whole days at Expo we went one day to visit Capilano Paris part way up the mour_tam and enjoyed a walk over a deep gorge on a swinging bridge. Try walk- ing without holding on to the bridge - it's difficult but we managed to walk the length without holding the sides! Our tour included a day off to Victoria on Van- couver Island and that was an interesting trip. The early rising at 5 a.m. saw us climb into a bus which whisked us off to the boat for Victoria. This vessel carried large transport trucks on one deck. buses on another and cars on another. A restaurant, cafeteria and other areas for people were Wed. July 16, 1986 THE NEWS! POST Page t 1 Ltrave-lu Your Cruise Questions Answered In the latest Paramount Holidays brochure on cruises, the company has attempted to answer those many questions potential cruise vacationers might have. What's Included In Civ Holiday? Your return airfare from Toronto to your chosen port of embarkation; transfers from the airport to the pier and return, services of Paramount represen- tatives in Toronto and in the destination, and in some instances, services of a Paramount represen- tative on board ship; your cabin accommodation for the duration of your cruise: all meals and entertain- ment on board ship and use of all facilities on the ship. Most cruises are as com- plete as above and there is only need for tipping the crew and buying things ashore in addition to what you have paid the holiday group. Of course. U.S. dollars are necessary out- side of Canada - although one cruise being advertised lately says that Canadian dollars are issuable on that ship. Can You Use Shavers and Hairdryers Aboard Ship, The electric current on board all ships is l to volts. However, with Costa Cruises, on the Costa Riviera and Carla Costa, only shavers can be used in available on the voyage past many beautiful islands, which looked deserted but apparently were not. Our bus driver cracked many jokes for his passengers. At one spot he pointed out a small house and announced that this building has eight kitchens - Mr. and Mrs. Kitchen and their six children' Victoria was ver: British just as we had been told - and of course. we insisted on having ..tea" at the Em- press Hotel, which is across from the Parlia- ment Buildings. your cabin and convenient hairdrying rooms are located on each deck, says Paramount. What Clothing Should You Take Along' Casual wear is the order of the day, moth on board and at ports of call. Light natural fabrics are best in the tropical climates and wash and wear, mix and match co-ordinates make good sense. Ladies should not wear short shorts or bikinis ashore as they are frowned upon in many islands, unless you are on the beach. Dress on board is mainly informal although gentlemen will need a jacket and ties for several evenings and ladies will en- joy wearing that special gown or cocktail dress to dinner. If you prefer more for- mal attire such as dinner jackets, tuxedos and even- ing gowns. you will have the opportunity at the Cap- tain's Cocktail Party and the Farewell Dinner says Paramount. Are There laundry & Valet Services On Board' Yes. all ships featured in Paramount's cruise pro- gram rogram have laundry and valet services. Charges for these services are extra and arrangements can be made through your steward, says Paramount Holidays. A tour of the legislature was interesting but all too soon we were heading back to our hotel with another in- teresting visit under our belts. Our hotel had a very nice pool and for evening times there was a beautiful disco room that was quite large - Unfortunately, our ac- tivities going out each day and evening stopped us from enjoying that facility. The air flight back was uneventful and w•e larded at Toronto just after 7 a.m. on Sunday morning.

Hooray For Gourmet Hot Dogs! Now, you can create a delicious gourmet hot dog for every day in July — a great way to celebrate Canadian Hot Dog Month. As a ready -to -eat processed meat, the hot dog offers unlimited opportunities to create nutritious gourmet entrees just by changing the condiments. To further enhance the hot dog, consider the variety of buns and breads that may be used as a foundation. From the tradi- tional hot dog buns to bagels, tortillas, croissants or crepes; rye, wheat breads or muffins, each will add a distinctive personality. Now, make your selection from among these topping ideas: Hawaiian Dog — Combine crushed pine- apple, sweet and sour sauce and chopped gin peppers - Greek Dog — Spread with chopped olives, top with a dollop of sour cream, onion dip or yogurt. Twin Cheese Dog — Mix shredded ched- dar cheese and shredded mozarella cheese; sprinkle over hot dog; broil until cheeses melt. Salad Dog — Top with shredded lettuce, chopped green onions, celery and tomato. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon favorite salad dressing. Reuben Dog — Wrap hot dog in slice of Swiss cheese and place in center of hot dog bun. Top with serving of sauerkraut; drizzle with 1 teaspoon thousand island dressing. Broil until cheese melts. Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West 'CONFLICT OF INTEREST Last fall David Peterson loosened restrictions in the con- Rict of interest guidelines for members of the provincial cabinet. Under Peterson's system, private companies are allowed to deal with the government despite the fact that a ;minister and his or her spouse may own an interest in the concern. Ministers and their spouses are, of course, ex- pected to put their holdings in a blind trust. Half a year later, Peterson's guidelines have been called into serious question. Two Liberal cabinet ministers have resigned. Peterson has called on former Lieutentant Gover- nor John Aird to conduct a review of his conflict of interest regulations. Ontario's conflict of interest guidelines were first set up in 1972 by them Premier William Davis. Under the Davis guidelines any private company in which a cabinet minister or spouse had an interest were prohibited from doing business with the Ontario Government. In 1984 a Federal task force co-chaired by Michael Starr and Mitchell Sharp recommended the creation of an Office 'of Public Sector Ethics, headed by an independent ad- judicator to oversee conflict rules. Even the pro -liberal Toronto Star has suggested that this kind of organization may benefit Ontario. But studies, and the creation of an office of Public Sector Ethics does not remove to fact that two members of David Peterson's cabinet have been forced to resign because of aliegations of conflict of interest. When Mr. Peterson became, Premier. he changed the rules for conflict guidelines. In January he boasted tha his guidelines were much tougher than those set up by the Davis government. He said his government was "squeaky dean". Loss than six months later two members of his cabinet had resigned, and a cloud of suspicion hams over the Peter- son government. (How did this happen?) It happened because Mr. Peterson loosened the conlfrct of ude'est guidelines and then did not take the time to ensure that these guidelines were property enforced. In addition some members of the Peterson cabinet apparently ignored the gu kklmes and continued to pursue their own business interests. Review and task forces will not accuse what has happen- ed. Petereson's poor judgement in not checking to ensure that his ministers were completely free of any possible car flirt has tarnished the reputation of his goverumet. To support Rene Fontaine's contention, as Peterson has. that by seeking re-election in his riding of Cochrane North all will be forgiven is simply to wink at a bending of guidelines that his own government has put in place. In the interval you, the taxpayer. will pay the significant cost of a by-election. Honest administration and the determinatin to be tough, even with your own colleagues, will enure a government is clean of any conflict of interest violations. William Davis was able to set guidelines and ensure they were enforced. David Peterson, it seems, will not or can not. Create a different gourmet hot dog for every day in July to celebrate Canadian Hot Dog Month. Corn relish, baked beans, alfalfa sprouts, sweet and sour sauce — all taste delicious on a grilled nutritious hot dog. Pizza Dog — Top generously with prepared pizza sauce; sprinkle with shredded moaaaarella cheese. Broil until cheese melts. Barbecue Dog — Drizzle barbecue sauce over hot dog; top with crushed potato chips. To highlight the barbecue flavor, use barbecue flavored chips. Nutty Dog — Spread a layer of crunchy peanut butter the length of a hot dog. Sprinkle with crushed corn flakes or shredded coconut. If desired, place under broiler to toast coconut and slightly melt peanut butter. Carrot Dog — Finely shred 112 cup fresh carrot. Add a tablespoon of crushed pineapple and mix together. Spread along length of hot dog. Sprinkle with celery seeds, if desired. In addition to toppings, a number of marinades can be made quickly. This is particularly good to use when hot dogs have been cut in chunks for kebobs. Apple cider, pineapple juice, beer, dry wines or soy sauce mixed with orange juice — all will add a special flavor to the hot dog after marinating for a few hours.
