In an effort to address the social, recreational, health care and housing needs of this group of in- dividuals, Councillor Bren- ner, seconded by Coun- cillor Arthurs, recom- mended a study be under- taken in order to in- vestigate the possibility of completing a present and future profile of senior citizens needs in the Town of Pickering. The resolution was last at the April 6 Town Council meeting as Councillors Ar- thurs, Brenner and Stoner voted for the study and Councillors Coburn, Nt- chell and Robertson voted against it.

Apr. a'2. 198; Opinion a page for expression for you and us On Bill 8 Dear Sir: The Bill guaranteeing French -language services in On- tario (Bill 8). applies to the geographical areas of the pro- vince containing " of the population. Metropolitan Toron- to is one of the areas included under the bill. "Guarantee- ing" means that French-speaking people can actually sue the government if these services are not available. The full effect of the bill is to be felt in three years' time. Let's look at the population of Metropolitan Toronto to decide just how necessary these French-languge services are. Mr. D'Iberville Fortier. Commissioner of Official Languages, is on record as stating that "The City (Toronto) has an estimated French speaking population of almost one-quarter of a million". (Joint Committee on Official Languages. Issue No. 29, May 6. 1986). He adds that figure includes English-speaking Torontonians who also can speak French. What he should have said was that the figure was composed almost exclusively of English-speaking peo- ple with a knowledge of the French languge. The notion that the Ontano Government should provide French -language services for people who are "mother tongue" English but have learned to speak French as a second language is the height of absurdity. What about "mother -tongue" French Torontonians" Ac- cording to the 1981 Census there are 32.115 "mother -tongue" French people in Metropolitan Toronto. out of a total population of over two million. But out of this number only 14.850 people speak French in their homes, and the number of people who claim to speak only French is a mere 2030 souls. For this miniscule group the Ontario government is prepared to spend millions of your tax dollars annually. Let us not forget. either. that in the Federal civil service two out of every three jobs designated bilingual go to mother -tongue.' French people- French-speaking people represent only 25% of the population but already they hold 33% of all federal civil service )obs, and more )ohs are be- ing designated bilingual every day. One of the worst offenders in relation to the make-up of staff is the Commissioner of Official Languages. Mr. For- tier confesses in his 1986 Annual Report that 75% of his staff are Francophones, owing in part to "the high standard of bilingualism required of employees". In other words, bil- ingual English-speaking people by and large don't rule over a $10.6 million empire, complete with 53 language police, or "Language auditors". as the Commissioner ells them. There is no reason for anyone to think that a similar situa- tion will not develop in Ontario under the implementation of Mr. Peterson's bill on French Language Services. We don't need special status for the 2.030 people in Metropolitan Toronto who speak only French, nor can we afford it. David Peterson and his cohorts would do well to give some consideration to the long-suffering ma)mty in the province who pay the shot- We need a language referen- dum. look for the A.P.E.C- ad in this newspaper. Help us fight for a language referendum. Join our organization. The time for action is Now. Yours truly, Pauline D. Leitch Director - Ontario Region On Property Rights Dear Sir: May I bring to the attention of your readers a very impor- tant fact regarding our new Canadian constitution. Do they realize that one of our basic human rights - the right to private property - was deliberately left out of the new Charter of Rights and Freedoms passed by Parliament in 1982"! Prime Minister Mulroney had promised to correct this omission during his election campaign but, so far. he has not made any real effort in this direction. I strongly urge my fellow Canadians in Scarborough to write to their representative in both the provincial and federal governments to take the necessary action toward amending the constitution to entrench Property Rights. If this is not done our basic human right to private proper- ty - a Canadian and British heritage over many centuries - can easily be eroded to the point where it becomes non- existent.

Bob's Notes ................................................................ Record Home Purchases Continue The relentless trod in home purchases continued its momentous climb in February, according to figures just released by The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) . The association's monthly analysis of residential purchases in 25 metropolitan centres, stows that 19.085 units bought in February exceeded January's total by 54.2 percent and were 25.0 percent ahead of figures for February, 1986. Five cities topped the list of sales volume increases with gains of more than 50 percent over the same month in 1986. These included London. Kitchener. Vancouver, Chicoutimi and Victoria. United Way Funds 39 new Agencies Courtney Pratt. Chairman. United Way of Greater Toron- to announced funding for 39 new agencies - four new member agencies and 35 one-year grants. The total amount allocated was $643,300, two percent of the 1986 campaign. Coping in Tough Times, Homeward Family Shelter, Human Services of Scarborough and Scarborough Women's Centre provide services in the Scarborough area and received one- year grants. The four newly admitted agencies are: Call -A -Service Inc. Harmony Hall ($20,000): North York Inter -Agency and Communitv Council ($20.000) : North York Women's Shelter ($48,000) ; and Times Change Women's Employment Ser- vice ($17,000).

Bob's Notes Ontario Hydro Reactors The Best Two reactors at the Bruce Nuclear Power Development hold the top two spots in the world for nuclear reactor per- formance, according to a preliminary survey published in a nuclear industry newsletter. The Nucleonics Week surrey said that Bruce units three and four are ranked number one and two in lifetime performance with capacity factors of 87.6 and 87 percent respectively. Bruce unit five is ranked fourth with a capacity rating of 86.4 percent since it was declared in service in March of 1985. Bruce unit five was Ontario Hydra's top performer in 1986 with a capacity factor of 97.3 percent. That was im- pressive enough for sixth spot among the 236 reactors in- cluded in the survey. Welcomes Reagan Announcement "A positive step in the right direction." That was the comment of Pauline Browes, M.P. Scarborough Centre and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environ- ment, in response to acid rain abatement measures an- nounced today by U.S. President Ronald Reagan. -Reagan's announcement represents a significant step towards reducing American acid rain causing emissions," added Browes. Approximately one half of all Canadian acid rain comes from sulphur dioxide emissions from the Midwestern and Northeastern U.S. "Acid rain is a North American problem," said Browes, "and it requires a North American solution." i Give A Gift That Lasts A11 Year!

He said it is important to inform the American public of the real damage done by acid rain to our forests, lakes and streams on both sides of the Canada -U.S. border. Mr. Bradley also took Ontario's case to the New York Times, the Christian Science Monitor. and Backpacker lrlagazine. As well, he appeared on the International Hour of the Cable News Network (CNN). In addition. Mr. Bradley made the trip to support those in Congress who are figt►ting for meaningful legislation to cut acid rain emmissions in the U.S. :MAJOR HIGHWAY LINKS Tt) BE COMPLETED Eight weeks after announcing plans to complete the four lane section of Highway 115 to Peterborough, Ed Fulton's Transportation and Carnmuunications Ministry announced that the four lane section of Highway 403 between Ancaster and Brantford will also be completed. The combined projects are expected to cost $88 million. In each case, the announcement ends years of uncertainty regarding the future of moving increasing volumes of traf fic in the Golden Horseshoe and to and from Peterborough. As well, four lane access to Peterborough and area will fur- ther enhance the region's tourism and manufacturing potential. Mr. Fulton said the announcement addresses the need for improved roads in both areas, not just to serve other manufacturers, but to get goods to market, and to safely and efficiently receive goods from out of town. DEPARTMENT OF GERIATRICS ESTABLISHED AT MC'MASTER A multi -disciplinary department of geriatrics and gerontology will be established at McMaster University in Hamilton. Colleges and Universities Minister, Gregory Sor- bara and Minister for Senior Citizens' Affairs, Ron Van Horne announced a $12 million grant to establish the new department. By the turn of the century, about 1.4 million people in On- tario will be 65 years of age or older. Recognizing this dramatic change in the make up of our society, the depart- ment of geriatrics and gerontology will enhance teaching in undergraduate and graduate health professional education programs and provide continuing education for practising professions. As well, the McMaster department will be involved in research related to the elderly and provide focus for the development of clinical services in conjunction with the regional geriatric unit and related institutional community health and social service agencies. Mr. Van Horne said this $12 million grant, to be provided over a 10 -year period, fulfills a commitment set out in the white paper, A New Agenda, he released last June. The creation of the department of geriatrics and gerontology is another step in the development of a comprehensive system of services to help seniors live active and independent lives and significantly reduce preventable and unnecessary necessary in- stitutionalization.

'To prevent re- curring illness they must learn to get better control over emotions and handle stressful situations more positively. For man) people. relaxation can be karned in a few sessions. -For some individuals who have never felt relaxed, the experwncce is profound. Can you imagine how elated they feel after being hyper and anxious all their lives" A lot of people don't -ven real- ize they are tense because they function at this level all the time. - How to Cope Dr. Matheson suggests three steps to improve the way you cope with stress. He says, -First of all, identify the stresses in your life. Learn to deal with them more posi- tively and change them if possible. Secondly, analyze your goals to see if you really want them. Finally, develop and maintain raring and af- fectionate relationships with your family and friends. Stu- dies show people with close relationships tend to have a lower incidence of heart attack' Many heart disease pa- tients mask their anxieties with denial. -It's the rare individual who does not deny his; her fears, says Dr. Arthur M. Freeman, Profes- sor and Vice -Chairman. De - movies and restaurants:' These are real concerns that partmcnt of Psychiatry, University of Alabama School of Medicine. -But it is only natural to be anxious when confronted with alife- thratening situation such as a heart attack. if the anxie- ties turn into depression, treatment with antianxiety drugs is required.' Dr. Freeman has found that patients who ha%.c undergone coronary bypass surgery often suffer from sig- nificant symptoms of anxiety or depression. These symp- toms can interfere with the patient's recovery and may lead to arrvthmia (irregular heart beat). In these situa- tions, treatment with an anti- anxiety mediation such as alprazolam, manufactured by the Upjohn Company, is effective in reducing anxicty Ityels. Statc., Dr. Freeman, prazolam is useful when the greatest level of anxiety oc- curs one week after the oper- ation.- In a double-blind study. Dr. freeman found that patients treated with al- prazolam were much less anxious than placebo4mat- cd individuals. Avoid Burn -Out The possibility of -burn- out' should be considered by all family members. The pressure of caring for a chronically ill person is ex- tremely taxing and the care- giver can become exhausted emotionally and physically, experts say, caregivers need to take time for tbemselves in order to face the challenge with renewed energy and optimism.

But there is a gem of a ski area in Alberta just 16 km west of Banff called Sun- shine Village. My husband and I spent the fust week of our two week western holiday at Sunshine Village and en- joyed excellent skiing. comfortable accommoda- tion and friendly people. We flew Pacific Western Airlines, which recently purchased CP Air and is now called Canadian Airlines International or CAI, to Calgary and im- mediately boarded a Parc Western bus which took us to Banff, where it dropped some passengers and then drove on to the base of the gondola. A three-mile ride in a six passenger gondola Likes you to picturesque Sun- shine Village situated in a high alpine valley. All luggage is taken care of by friendly staff who take charge of it at the base of the gondola and deliver it right to your room. All you are asked to carry are your skiffs. Sunshine's tradition of providing skiers with friendly mountain hospitality dates back over 50 years to February 1934 when a group of skiers from Vancouver first stayed to ski the "top of the world". At that time the on- ly accommodation was a CPR trail riders cabin and skiing was dependent on how high one wished to climb. Besides offering the only on -hill accommodation in the Canadian Rockies, no other ski area in Alberta comes close to Sunshine in terms of natural snowfall or length of season. Another plus is its ski -to - the -door accommodation. With 60% intermediate terrain, it's a good area for families and all levels of skiers can enjoy its wide open slopes, alpine bowls, groomed runs, challenging moguls and tree -lined tuns. Its five, six and seven day packages include accom- modation, all skiing, three meals a day and five ski lessons. As well as their famous three-mile gondola, Sun- shine has six c hairlifts, three T -bars, and two beginner tows. Sunshine also offers 2D km of track - set c -!cuss country ski trails and unlimited black country toulrulg- hee "village" consists of Sunshine Inn which can ac- commodate about 200 guests. a day lodge for day skiers, staff quarters and the original Sunshine Ledge, a log cabin which offers a brown bag lunch area and a snack bar. Entertainment is provid- ed by the ski school instruc- tors and the staff at the Inn who put on skits and enter- tainment for the guests. But after skiing seven or eight hours, most guests are happy to relax in the lenge around a crackling fine, enjoy a hot tub or sauna before dinner and get to bed early to be ready for another great day of skiing. For families there is a games room, a big screen television and children's programs. Sunshine offers complete supervised daycare for children 19 months to six years on an hourly basis. as well as an allay ski program for first timers to fast speedsters from six to 12 years old. With its bright blue skies and sunny days, Sunshine Village is the perfect spot for a ski holiday in the breathtaking Canadian Rockies.

Step Up To Ladder Safety Ladders are used in many activities around the home at this time of year. With the advent of warmer weather comes the maintenance chores such zs removing storm win- dows. painting. fixing the roof, etc. Springtime ac- tivities can cause you to have an accident if you're not on your guard. The main reasons for these accidents are that many people use faulty or inappropriate ladders and or do not follow, or even know, basic ladder safety. Cbeosirig A ladder Ladders are usually available in three categories: domestic or household, commercial (for painters. roofers. etc.) and industrial. When buying a ladder. look for the CSA ( Canadian Standards Association) label. This is assurance that the ladder has been manufactured to a stan- dard of quality set by ex- perts in ladder construc- tion and use. Stepladders should be braced so there is no wob- ble or twist under load. Straight and extension lad- ders should have large shoes with thick rubber treads for stability on earth, concrete or gravel surfaces. Tile raising or lowering of sections on ex- tension ladders should be smooth. Use only non-conductive ladders near electrical wires or installations. Read and heed all labels and literature supplied by the manufacturer. Erecting A Ladder Inspect a ladder before using it. Look for loose steps or rungs (considered loose if they can be moved at all with the hand), Check for loose nails, screws, bolts or other parts, and cracked, split or broken uprights, braces, steps or n Ings. Examine wooden Ladders for slivers. And check for damaged or worn nonslip bases. If any of the above can- not be repaired, replace the ladder. The better a ladder is secured, the more it assumes the stability of a stairway. Obviously, when a ladder is placed on a level and firm surface and is staked or held at the bot- tom and tied at the top, it becomes a more depen- dable stairway. A ladder placed at the proper angle best supports the user. If it is too vertical it can topple backward. If it is too horizontal it can fall under the weight of the user. Those who don't like angles (75 degrees) or ratios (4 -to -1) as a guide might prefer to use the firefighter's rule of thumb: stand erect with your toes at the ladder feet. As you hold the ladder by the side rails with your arms ex- tended horizontally, the ladder will be approx- imately the right angle. The footing of the ladder must be firm and even for safety. Build up the surface if necessary and stake a stout board across the base to keep it from slipping. The top of the ladder must rest against a flat, firm surface and should be long enough or extend so you won't have to stand on the top three rungs. Make sure the ladder extends at least three feet above the roof or floor line before get- ting off the ladder onto a roof or elevation. Don't place a ladder in front of a door without first making are the door is locked. Tie or otherwise secure the top of a long ladder to add stability and keep it from slipping out of posi- tion. Before using an exten- sion ladder. make sure the rung locks are in place. Test stability on a low tom- Stepladiers A stepladder should be fully opened for use and the spreader or folding metal braces should be in locked down position. it is safer not to climb a stepladder higher than the second step from the top. A stepladder should not be used as a straight ladder by Waning its top against a wall. Ladder Work No one who is ill, drink- ing or taking medication that altos alertness should climb a ladder. Also, physical impairment a history of dimness could make climbing risky. Wear shoes or boots with rubber or other non -slip soles. Clean off footwear before climbing. Always ascent and descent fading the ladder and only one rung at a time. Carry tools in a vest or shoulder sack. Raise and lower heavy tools or materials by rope. Work smoothly, avoiding jerks and over -vigorous movement. Don't over- reach or lean to the side so far that you have to lift a foot. If you must work with both hands, hook a leg over a Keep people below from under the ladder - you may drop a hammer or a brush loaded with paint. If you should become diz- zy or ill, don't try to climb down immediately. Drape your arms over a ruing, rest your head against the lad- der and wait for the feeling to pass. Then climb down slowly. A stand-off stabilizer should be used to straddle windows. When trimming or prun- ing trees, lean a straight ladder against the trunk or a sturdy branch that won't break or sway. Never work on a high lad- der on a stormy day. Set a stepladder as level as possible and check its stability before climbing. If Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe. MPP Durham West What did you think of the recent announcement by Transportation Minister Ed Fulton regarding the widening of the 4o1 into our area? .. In my view it was the biggest non -announcement in my ten years at Queen's Park. - We have a problem now, not a decade from now. The start in 1989 followed by a seven to ten year construction period est to bring the wider highway to Brock Road is ridiculous. it shows the low priority the Liberal Government places on Durham Region. A certain Pickering Councillor is taking credit for the an- nouncement, like everything else I might add, but in this in- stance can have the credit. Just think of the ribbon cutting at Brock Road just before the turn of the century. WOW! Some would have you believe that this was a "new" issue. Regional council dealt with it in December and then everyone jumped on the bandwagon. Your M.P.P. has been pressing the issue since mid last year and again wrote the Minister in October, articles in the local press in early November. and included this priority issue in my Fall 1956 Newsletter. Regional Chairman Gary Herrema indicated in a December 1956 press report that' the widening could com- mence in early 1957 and expects construction to be com- pleted by 1959". Also "to Thickson Road in Whitby by 19W'. So much for his influence' With your help and support we can insist that the govern- ment give higher priority to our transportation reeds in Durham.

Tbosards of boys and girls and community volunteer groups have par- ticipated in the original course since it was in- troduced in 1970. However. in rece:ut years volunteer instructors were calling for a more comprehensive, up- dated course. The instructional modes used in the new course focus on lectures, small group discussion, inquiry, role playing, irstructar4ed demonstrations and prac- tical experience_ By com- bining these approaches, the course truly becomes student -centred. The content was written by experienced curricula specialists, volunteer in - the ground is soft, use a piece of heavy plywood as a base.

The product was tested with students in rural and urban com- munities. The Instructor's Manual contains over 140 pages of detailed babysitter tutor matim with instructional outlines for each of the eight training sessions. No special training is required to present the course, mak- ing it readily available for presentation by all groups. The 52 -page student reference book su mmrizes the course sessions and provides child care infor- mation that will be of value to graduates both during their babysitting years and in their adult lives. Each graduate is presented with a wall cer- tificate and graduation wallet card. These provide validation that the holder has completed tea hours of training and successfully passed the examination on the course material. The goal of the program is to prepare youngsters not only for the present but for the future in lending in- sights into the basic responsibilities of suc- cessful parenting.
