Why is the term "love" used in tennis? C.V. A. In tennis, the term "love" means zero, or no points. It originated from the French word ' 1'oeuf' which means the egg. Since an egg looks like a zero, l'oeuf was used to designate no score. L'oeuf quickly turned into love by English speaking players. Q. In the musical world, what are the passions? E. U. A. The passion is the story of the Crucifixion based on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark. Luke and John. In the 4th cen- tury, the passion was read in some religious ceremonies during Holy Week. It was not until the loth century that the passion was sung. Today, we are most familiar with it as vocal music. Over the centuries many composers created their own versions of the passion. Among the most popular is Johann Sebastian Bach's "The Passion According to St. Matthew".

Investments tc permit the construction of a one -storey bank, five- storey ivestorey office building and a public promenade on the south side of Kingston Rd. between Glenanna Rd. and Valley Farm Rd. was ap- proved by Pickering Coun- cil on Oct. 6. A delegation of residents addressed council with respect to their concerns over the proposed develop- ment. Opposed to the plan were 'Doug Dickerson, Brian Ed- wards, Laurie Cahill. Gor- don Potts, Ken Birse, Dan Calverly, Carol Michea, Wendy Handson. David Reid and Joe Papalia. Mr. Edwards and Mr. Reid both requested a prlebescite on the matter and Mr. Potts called for a referendum. Their objections included too high density, increased traffic congestion, shadow- ing problems because of high buildings, the use of prime land for apartments when a park would be more worthwhile, taxes. over- crowding in the schools, in- creased demand for medical services and irsuf- fncient seniors housing and bw income housing. George ?1Sartim, president of Greenwood and Area Ratepayers Association spoke in favour of the '!!Fidel proposal stating that the original Town Centre Plan was intended to be a high density, socially ac- tive area. Jackie Fields also sup- ported the proposal stating that Pickering is growing rapidly and cannot con- tinue to be considered a small town. Paul Lint favoured the plan stating that the development would enable residents such as young professionals and people not wishing to live in single family dwellings to remain in Pickering. Enrico Pistritto favoured the plan pointing out that Tridel is a quality builder and the project will be pleasing to look at. Murray Chusid, solicitor on behalf of Tndel and J.D.S. Investments, stated that Tridil has responded to the concerns of the public by reducing the number and heights of the buildings. upgrading land- scaping and providing pedestrian walkways on the site and for the Esplanade. He pointed out that the actual building will occupy 16.2% of the ender land holdings and the beights of the buildings are deliberately varied to minimize shadowin& Pickering To Get Catholic High School George Ashe. MPP for Durham West announced last week that the Ministry of Ed lcatwn has made an allocation for a new Catholic high school in the Town of Pickering. The ministry in making this allocation has allowed for 538 pupil placements in Phase 1 of this new school. It expects that the Durham Separate School Board will be back looking for more money to complete this much needed facility. The allocation is spread over two years and in- cludes funds for site pur- chase. Funding includes the site Purchase of $1,125,000 in 1966, up front construction funding of sl,5oo,000 in 1966 and construction and com- pletion of Phase 1 of $4,934,000 for 1967. Mr. Ashe says "that the separate school supporters have long looked forward to a Catholic high school in our area and it gives me a great deal of satisfaction to see that the Ministry now sees fit to recognize the critical need of com- munities like Pickering... This new school will go a long way to eliminating the overcrowding of Dennis O'Connor High School in Ajax. says George Ashe. And he added that there is a continuing need in both of the systems and it is his sincerest hope that the ministry will address these issues in the very near future.

Oct. 22, 1986 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Why Bother? by Bob Watson It most be the most boring topic in Canada - Free Trade With The USA: Let's face the facts, you can't bargain with the Americans when they are in the middle of an election. In any event, Americans are very insular in their outlook. They really believe that the world centres on them and they do not need the rest of the world. Remember World War II? It took quite a while for the American president to get the citizens ready for war. In the meantime the whole of Europe was being destroyed by Hitler. So this attitude is nothing new. As we see it President Reagan would like to agree with us but he is handicapped by the cold, hard facts of American politics. What should Canada do? Just what the "big" coun- tries do to each other - retaliate. Let's put a high duty on oranges or suspend travel to the US for a few months and see how those Americans affected moan at their represen- tatives. Not many Canadians remember Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent. who in 1947 cut off imports from the USA to balance our trade deficit and Americans learned for the first time that Canada is important to them. We still are. Hvdro Rates To Increase By 5.5% Following review of the Ontario Energy Board's report on 1987 rates. Ontario Hydro's Board of Directors has ap- proved an average rate increase of 5.5 percent, effective Jan. 1. The increase is lower than the 5.9 percent rise recommended by the Ontario Energy Board. and higher than the 4.9 percent increase proposed by Hydro earlier this year The Cycling Problem Dear Sir: Your article in the "Opinion" column of the Scarborough News of the 17th of September entitled "Why not cyclists.. addressed a problem that i have wondered about for some time. My interest in this foUmed the death of a bicycle ac- cident victim about two years ago in this area. As far as i can ascertain the collision was followed by a fight ending in the death of the victim. I have no idea what was the end of it all, whether the bicycle rider was charged or if a mirror was involved. I would add to your statement that young cyclists are ig- norant about the rules of the road by suggesting that they are totally unconcerned about any rules. They have a right to the sidewalk and the pedestrian represents a threat. You =call the days when bicycles were licensed: I also rode a licensed bike with a bell. quite a large one that made quite a noise. When you think about it bells on bicycles eliminate many of the passible accidents, and they cost very little. Basically. however. there is a bigger problem. Our pre- sent generation has a lack of "good manners-. As J. Edgar Hoover once said in a speech, I quote. The Law has become Legality. Liberty is now License and we are slowly but surely approaching Anarchy. Even pedestrians today walk- ing three or four abreast on -a side walk do not wish to adopt single file to permit others to pass.

Scar- borough West, told the United Nations. A member of the Canadian delegation to the U.N., he was speaking to the Special Political Committee of the General Assembly. Referring to the Soviet U'nion's nuclear energy plant breakdown at Chernobyl, he said responsible governments must give safety and early warning a high priority. He pointed out that the Chernobyl nuclear plant accident had caused contamination of water and air in central Canada. "Danger to life and health is now portable thousands of kilometres by winds that heed no nation's borders and need no entry permit." Stackhouse also reminded the U.N. meeting that Canada "has consistently proposed a comprehensive ban on all nuclear testing in all environments by all countries for all time."

Op- position Leader Larry Grossman has told a gathering of On - Association of Registered Nursing Assistants. '-Alzbeimers has emerged as one of society's most crippl- ing and emotionally draining diseases," said Grossman. "Yet, the relative 'newness' of this disease has caught the health delivery system ill-prepared to face the very dif- ferent and unique needs of its %ictims and their families." Remembering... Have you ever noticed that most of the faces you see dur- ing Remembrance Day ceremonies belong to older Cana- dians' The Royal Canadian Legion recognized this a long time ago, but it faced a dilemma. How do you get children, who have only experienced war on the TV screen, to realize the huge sacrifices that war demands' The Legion found one answer in 1960, when it introduced an essay contest in Canada's schools that dealt with the meaning of Remembrance Day. Beginning at the local level, it led to the selection of provincial and national win- ners. By 1986 it had expanded to include junior and senior competitions in essay, poetry and poster categories, with winters receiving prizes at the local, regional and national levels. National winners also receive exposure on Remem- brance Day, when they are flown to Ottawa at the Legion's expense for the national ceremony. The winners' efforts are broadcast across the country by the CBC. Although most of the publicity goes to winners at the national level, the com- petition always starts at local elementary and high schools, where most of Canada's 1,800 Legion branches sponsor con- tests. The legion is delighted with the response, because the competition causes thousands of students to think, and think hard, about the meaning of Remembrance Day. War becomes more than artificial scenes on television. This year, the Legion has made a further effort to give young Canadians a better understanding of what war means to veterans. In the first pilgrimage of its kind, it sponsored the visit of 10 young Legionnaires — the sons and daughters of veterans -- to the European battlefields of WW 1 and WW II. It hopes to make the pilgrimage an annual event so that more young Canadians will know what war really cost. favourite shoes :s W Nhnutcs.

Oct 12, after returning home from jogging. Mr. Richards, who was 52 last August, had been superintendent for the board's Area 7 family of schools since 1979. He joined the Scar- borough public school system in 1961 as a physical education teacher and department head at W.A. Porter Collegiate, follow- ing four years teaching in Brantford. Ontario. He was promoted to principal of W.A. Porter Collegiate in 1972 — after four years as a vice-principal — and also served as principal of David and Mary Thomson Collegiate from 1975 to 1979. Director of Education Cameron Cowan says Mr. Richards' death is a tremendous loss to the school system. "Dave was widely respected as both a principal and an area superintendent, and made a great contribution during his 25 years with the board,.. Mr. Cowan says. "He has a gregarious nature, and was genuinely interested in people." His untimely death came as a shock to all who knew him as he was an active sportsman, a non-smoker, and very conscious of his fitness level and nutrition. Born in Curtisville, Pa., David Richards leaves his wife Sandra; two daughters. Deborah Andersen and Laura Plouffe: two sons, Darrell and Brett; two grand- children, Jennifer and Mat- thew; and mother Mary Richards of Burlington.

Bill Watt's Worlds IN CABARET: We deplore the now prevalent habit of remov- ing flowers from the table in dinner theatre. Yet. we confess to the removal of a single carnation after view- ing the Limelight Dinner Theatre's current produc- tion of Cabaret at its recent opening. We removed it so we can have a keepsake of this production. Like all of nature's works the carnation is a superb creation but it is not, in everyone's eyes, a thing of beauty like the rose or of simplicity like the daisy. So it is with Cabaret. It is superbly crafted and, in this production wonderful- ly presented. The very nature of its theme mitigates against it being a work of art. As most must surely know. Cabaret is set in the Berlin of the thirties and presents the rise of nazism (we refuse to dignify it with capitals) as seen and ex- perienced by a shallow night club singer. an idealistic writer, a dumpy hausfrau, the older Jew who wishes to marry her, an active member of the nazi party and . . the enigmatic and sardonic master of ceremonies at the corrupt and almost decadent Kit Kat Club. And, it is all set to music, good music by John Kander and the incisive lyrics of Fred Ebb. Charlotte Moore is Sally Bowles and plays the role as well, we believe, as we have ever seen it played. She has probably the two best songs of the show in the title song and Maybe This Time. The former is sung with spirit and elan; the latter with almost shat- tering poignancy. Miss Moore acts well too but it is her singing that carries the day. David Dunbar as the writer is all that one should expect in the role which is surprisingly, unsym- pathetic. His growing awareness of what is hap- pening in the supposed civilized city is well played and nicely underscored by his good singing voice. Ellen Horst is the middle- aged hausfrau who sur- renders to her perceived dictates of exigency to refusing the offered love of her suitor. She well presents the cynical fatalism of many at that time and in that place. She sings nicely too. One must mention something over which she has no control but which in finality detracts just the tiniest bit from her performance: she bears an almost uncanny resemblance to Elsa Lan- chester. As her suitor, Peter Manierka once again con- firms our opinion of him as one of our finer actor and singers. He has a fullness of voice usually experienc- ed only in Rusian bass singers and bow we wish be would record! Ian Deakin plays the role of Ernst, the enthusiastic party member, strong in his support of the party and determined that all Jews must perish. He plays it well and one is forced so to acknowledge even while decrying the role itself. As the M.C. Tom Kneebone once again con- vinces all that his portrayal must be considered the quintessential one. We bow to no one in our apprecia- tion of Joel Grey but his playing of the role cannot compare with that of Mr. Kneebone. In his white face makeup and outlandish costumes he is at the very least sardonic and at the worst, evil. He can cause two kinds of shivers up one's back; the shiver of appreciation of a song or line well delivered and the shiver of primitive disgust against the evil he represents. Oh hell, we expect we're becoming too profound but we simply must try to pre- sent the idea that this genius of the stage must be seen in this role. The balance of the cast is good, too, and regrets are expressed that we cannot mention them all. We must, however, single out Laura Dickson in the role of a pro- stitute. She plays it well but it wouldn't really matter whether she does or not because she is simply stun- ning to look at. What a Contbtued on Pape 10 every weekend in October. The one-hour session #)- dudes a look at a display of woodburners, advice on their safe installation and maintenance, and a guided walk through the Humber Valley to learn about dif- ferent types of wood and their heating values. Homeowners trying to determine whether they should convert to wood heat should consider cur- rent heating costs, the cost of a cord of wood and the heating value of the wood — the heating value differs greatly between soft and hard wood. For example, a homeowner in downtown Toronto might find that a cord of wood is so expen- sive that there is no benefit to converting. However, if the homeowner owns a woodiot or has access to an inexpensive supply of wood. conversion mares a lot of sense. As a bonus to Kortright visitors, free turkey soup cooked on a woodstove will be served on Thanksgiving Sunday and Monday. .

Oct. 22, Ilei THE NEWS Page 7 Meet The Author In creating his Benny Cooperman character, Howard Engel has filled a vacuum in Canadian culture. Until Engel began writing about Benny and his ability to solve crimes in 1979, Canada had no super sleuth to compare with Philip Marlowe or Sam Spade. Engel's Tust book "The Suicide Murders" established Cooperman as an eccentric, scrupulously moral private detective working in a small town, whose endeavours endear him to the hearts of readers. No ordinary super sleuth, Cooperman has no stomach for corpses, would rather run than fight and prefers apricots to booze. Howard Engel will talk about Benny, how he came to be and how the events and places that have in- fluenced the author also shaped Benny and the other characters at Fair- view Library, 35 Fairview Mall Dr. on Wed.

"Unfortunately travel agents are the ones who bear the brunt of travellers' fears," says Gerald Heifetz, general consul of ALTA -Ontario. Of all the persons involved in the travel industry, the travel agent is the farthest removed from and with the least control over. interna- tional events. The agent, however is closest to the traveller. But, be explains, those fears are being allayed by sensible and informed counselling. "Agents are doing everything possible to en- sure that travellers are aware of the risks when travelling in troubled areas. Taking out travel in- surance is becoming stan- dard practise. By sug- gesting they buy insurance, travel counsellors can make travellers aware of the risks in as calm a way as possible. It's a financial remedy and it relieves travellers of many of their worries. " While no amount of good counselling or increased security measures can pro- tect the public completely from future terrorist acts, most industry officials feel that travellers are becom- ing less fearful as time goes by. "Like most airlines, British Airways suffered earlier in the year," says Sandy Gardiner. "In April and May our passenger loads were 26% less than for the same time last year. But things improved in Ju- ly and August and September is simply boom- ing. "' WED.

The Scar- borough United `Rowdies' - s�onsored by Labatts were the Ontario representative team. Their first game pitted them against the Edmon- ton Angels, a four time win- ner at the national level and the latter squeezed oui a 2-1 win. The Rowdies met Nova Scotia in the next game and scored a slim 1-0 victory. In the runners-up final the Quebec represen- tative team scored the game's only goal to claim the bronze midal over the Scarborough girls. In Washington DC several Scarborough United teams contested in the annual 'WAGS' tourna- ment. The minor Peewee 'Strikers' were in a tough group and their two ties were not enough to ad- vance to the quarter finals. The Bantam '-Chargers' did reach their quarters but went down 0-1 after scoring seven goals in the preliminary round. The mayor Mosquito 'Stingers' certainly deserv- ed their berth in their ggrrow final after several Bard -fought victories in the first two -and -a -half days of the tournament. !heir semi-final against Livonia, Mich was tied at 2-2 after overtime and goalkeeper Andrea Tropak came up oot- o of stoppingg t�hnreet penalty Pk, the Eeam to a 3-1 'kicks' win.

David Warrak is the musical director and, we suspect, the man responsi- ble for the clever or- chestrations. One thinks of the scene where Fraulein Schneider (Yes, she's a fraulein even though we described her as "ein hausfrau". We've never pretended that German is at our complete command) is presented with a pineap- ple from the greengrocer store of her suitor. As she and he sing about its delights andthe significance of the gift, soft Hawaiin guitars are sug- gested. Well donee Mr. War - rack. Kudos too for the crisp and dramatic direction of Adolf Toman and his fine marshalling of the com- ponents of the excellent set construction cause one to marvel. As we say, Cabaret can- not be a work of art but it is a superb creation and we thank The Limelight for it. IN THE CLUBS: Pearl Bailey is at the Im- perial Room until Satur- day. Such are the sometime exigencies of publishing deadlines that material must, as in this case, be written rather well ahead. As this is being written we have not yet seen Miss Bailey but as you read this, we will have enjoyed her opening night perfor- mance. We can say that without qualm because we have seen the lady several times and have yet to ex- perience a less than satis- fying performance.

A delicious lun- cheon was followed by a game or two and was most enjoyable. The harvest decorations were lovely and all added to the pleasure of the day. The next luncheon is Nov. 17th. Sun. Nov. 30th has been set aside as the next date for the Sacrament of Bap- tism and any parents wishing to have their children baptised should contact the church office 282-2024.

This Sunday at 2 p.m. it's the Johann Strauss gala onstage. There will be sing- ing and dancing that will include songs from Die Fledermaus, The Gypsy Baron and The Merry Widow. Of course, the last named was written by Franz Lehar but it's true to the spirit of Strauss. For our part we'd like to see some Emerich Kallman included as well. On Thurs. Oct. 30th the Roy Thomson Hall volunteers are sponsoring a Hallowe'en Tea Dance as a Salute to Seniors. Proceedings begin at 12:30 p.m. with a home- made lunch served in the lobby. This will be followed by couple and line dancing on the Roy Thomson Stage - yes, we said the stage! - un- til 3 p.m. Sounds like a great deal of fun. For further informa- tion call 593-4822.

Miss Boris and Mr. Hobi have not been with the Royal Winnipeg for a number of years now but we still treasure the memory of their kindness and are well disposed to anything connected to them.

We could not find them so we hope they will be accepted again and in the spirit in which they are intended. The short stories in this collection are not bad but, and this is a major but, they are not true to the spirit of the writer after whom the awards are nam- ed. William Sydney Porter - O. Henry - was a master of the genre and always true to the format and concept of the short story. That is to say, the narrative line in his stories is always the dominant one. The Gift of the Magi and The Cop and the Anthem are probably the best examples of what we are trying to describe. In contrast, the stones in this collection, and those of the last several years it seems to us, are mood pieces; well written mood pieces but mood pieces en fin.

Knob Hill Terminal Could Kill Food Stores by Gav Abbate A proposed Knob Hill Farms food terminal at Eglinton Ave. E. and Phar- macy Ave. could drive ex- isting food stores out of • business an Ontario Municipal Board hearing was told last week. But forcing stores to close or to re -organize would be a "healthy thing.. Jack Dougan, a former Scarborough planner, told the hearing. He also said it would be good for the con- sumer to have an alter- native method of food retailing available. The hearing which started on Oct. 14 and is scheduled to last at least four weeks is considering an appeal by Knob Hill against Scarborough Coun- cil's rejection of its rezon- ing application to convert the former Canadian General Electric plant into a food store and warehouse. The rejected plan has been dubbed the "world's largest supermarket" at 24,000 sq. metres (132,000 sq. ft.) Dougan who testified under subpeona was the planner who worked on the Knob Hill application and who recommended its ap- proval to council. During his two days of testimony Dougan said the Knob Hill store would help Improve the image of the Golden Mile area which in recent years has ..stagnated.' would help create a multicultural business community in the area and would provide 650 much needed full and part time jobs for women and youth. He also told the hearing that there is no other site in Scarborough better suited for a Knob Hill Farms store in terms of its accessibility to railway lines, arterial roads and an ethnic chen- tale. The later criteria, Dougan argued, is impor- tant for Knob Hill because it caters to this segment of the population. Knob Hill is being oppos- ed at the hearings by lawyers representing the City of Scarborough, Monarch Investments which owns the Eglinton Square shopping mall and IPCF Properties, a sub- sidiary of Loblaws, which is opening a superstore next year at the former Golden Mile Plaza site just across the street from the Knob Hill location. Opposition, although not represented by legal counsel, is also coming from residents in the area. On the first day of the hear- ing about 70 residents at- tended. The OMB has set aside Thurs. Oct. 23 to hear submissions from all in- terested residents. Wed. Oct. 22,19M THE NEW9/1?0S7' Page H.

Good News For Seat Belt Users Being introduced to the Canadian marketplace this fall from Tiger Marketing is the Emergency Seat Belt Cutter. Originally developed in Germany, this product is an excellent tool to aid in the safe escape of driver or passengers should they be involved in an accident or car -fine situation. As well as automobiles, this tool can be used in air and marine craft. The use of seat restrain- ing belts, and their man- datory enforcement has been a controversial issue over the past decade. And yet, government surveys and police reports continue to show the life saving benefits to users of seat restraining belts. The Emergency Seat Belt Cutter endorses those government and police reports, because it removes the basic fear that non users of seat belts have in being trapped in their vehicle and unable to escape. Particularly important today is the increasing, and in some cases legislated use of child restraint seats. Where it will take the average parent up to five minutes to secure their child, with the emergency seat belt cutter rescue or release can be accomplish- ed within seconds. The benefit of the emergency seat belt cutter is to provide an effective tool that can be mounted within easy reach, preferably on the instru- ment panel, and in view of a rescuer or trapped passenger - The product is made of sturdy plastic in a bright red colour, with highly visable "Emergency Seat Belt Cut'r" printed on the face. The blade is precision ground stainless steel. Professionally, the emergency seat belt cutter is being used by the Ontario Provincial Police, Waterloo Regional Police Association and Metro Toronto Police depart- ments. The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources has in- stalled the cutter in their aircraft. In the United States, where the product is called the "Knife for Life", en- dorsements have come from the Michigan Frater- nal Order of Police - State Lodge of Michigan, and the American Union of Teamsters. The product has been selected by the American Association of Police as "Product of the Year". Report from 'Oueen's Park By George Ashe. MPP Durham West ex xx BILL 7 AND HOMOSEXUALTY During this new fall session, members of the Legislative Assembly in Ontario will have to debate and vote on the Liberal Government'Bill "Equality Rights Statute Law Amendment Act 1996," commonly known as Bill 7. During committee deliberations earlier this year, the Ot- tawa Centre NDP Member of the Legislature, Evelyn Gigantes, made an amendment to Bill 7 which would pro- hibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. The amendment passed. She claims the elected representatives of the NDP have presented the same policy positron for many years, both as duly elected convention delegates and, in a different role, as publicly elected representatives. At the present time in Ontario, homosexuals do have the same rights as other citizens. They may exercise their right to free speech, to assemble, exercise any religious preference they might have. They may own property, en- force contracts, etc. Moreover, homosexuals cannot be dismissed from employment except for "just cause", the same as All other employees. One may disagree with a per- son's sexual preference without denying that person his or her "rights'-. To include sexual orientation in the Human Rights Code would change the definition of the family as it is presently understood in the province of Ontario today. It would pro- vide a functional definition which does not require heterosexuality as its foundation and would provide homosexuality as a legitimate, alternate lifestyle on the same basis as the traditional family. This amendment would mean that in addition to the nights shared by everyone. hhonnosekuals would have special rights recognizing in law their lifestyle and behaviour. No other group is protected under law based on "behaviour". The Charter of Rights protects citizens on the basis of identity, not behaviour. Alcoholics and compulsive gamblers do not qualify for such protection, neither should homosexuals. The Charter of Rights states that everyone has the right not to be discriminated against on the basis of race, na- tional or ethnic origin, sex, religion, age, etc. It refers to discrimination on the basis of sok, not sexual orientation. The first is true discrimination, the latter is not discnmma- tion at all. "Sexual orientation" refers to an optional lifestyle whereas "sex" refers to the inherent characteristic of being male or female. Refusing to pass laws giving special privileges to homosexuals is not discrimination. Do we want to see homosexual marriages legally recognized and homosexual couples adopting children? I do not! How about you? Speaking To You Scott Fennd M.P. Ontario Riding I would like to continue with last week's topic, detailing the major themes in the Speech from the Throne. As I outlined, science and technology have been identified as the cornerstones of the government's long-term economic plan. The Throne Speech cited the establishment of the Canadian Space Agency and the formation of a new National Advisory Board on Industrial Technology, com- posed of leading Canadian scientists and industrialists. International trade is a vital part of Canada's future. The new GATT round of global trade talks and our ongoing discussions with the United States, aim to secure and in- crease access to our trading markets. Social justice, another major theme of the government's Throne Speech, has been given renewed emphasis, and special initiatives were outlined which will help defend and strengthen the institution of the Canadian family. The government called for discussions with the pro- vinces, business and labour on the provision of a childcare program. There are also plans to take action against the sexual abuse of children, violent forms of pornography, child prostitution, and the serious and growing threat posed by illegal drugs. In addition, measures will be introduced designed to pro- tect and assist victims of criminal violence, and further ac- tion will be proposed to assist in finding missing children. Protection of the environment has also been identified as a top priority. A new Environmental Protection Act will be introduced to deal with pollution, and the focus will be on toxic chemicals and improving water quality. The Throne Speech also highlighted the government's in- tention to keep working within the United Nations and the Commonwealth, to end apartheid in South Africa. Over the past two years, the government has strived to address the expectations of all Canadians. The Speech from the Throne re-emphasizes the government's commitment to continue along that course, to ensure a better Canada for all Canadians, now and in the future.
