Jane 1, 1988 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Ridiculous! by Bob Watson The provincial government has decided what to do about transportation in the Metro Toronto and district . . do nothing! It is difficult to believe that these members of the legislature can be so short on vision that they can't see the need for more roads and highways. If a small group of XYZ people, either ethnic or seniors asked the provincial government for a grant to buy curtains for their new club house, which the province is also financ- ing. the MIAs would rush to assist with money. For some inexplicable reason they can't relate the need for transpor- tation routes for everyone .. including those of us who have lived here all of our lives! It seems a shame that the Toronto area has blossomed in- to one of the world's best urban areas - probably the best - and now we are going to let it go to pot because Laudon, Ont - oriented David Peterson can't get his loins in action for the Metro Toronto area. What makes the economy boom" Two very definite things. The fust is the sale of homes which generates millions of dollars and jobs and the second is cars, the manufacture of which is essential for prosperity in Ontario. It would seem that the Peterson gang has decided to make driving to work difficult for the 3 million of us who live in the Metro Toronto arra so we will give up our cars and our homes. Ontario benefits all ave if Metro Toronto is booming and Mr. Peterson and his government won't be booming at the next election if their attitude to roads in Metro and region doesn't change fast. Complete Chaos! by Bob Watson We hate to think how the big Economic Conference is go- ing to fare on June 19th at the Metro Convention Centre in downtown Toronto. This much raved about centre had corn- piete parking chaos last Saturday mgbt after the Miss Chinese Pageant run by the Scarborough Nath York Chinese Btainess Association finished at 11:30 p.m. With 800 to 1000 people. most of whom parked below the Popvention centre, trying to leave the place. the one man left m a single booth to collect the parking fees. took two boars to clear about 300 cars. Your writer found no movement in the flow of cars on the lower level for 55 minutes and thea it wan 90 minutes before we could reach the booth to pay our 53 fee. A beautiful pageant enus eroded with a ridiculous tie up of traffic and in or opinion there should have been three or four booths m ac- tion at the exit. If Metro Toronto wants to be a world leader with big con- ventions it better find out quickly how to get rid of the ..hidrsville" attitude in the parking below the Metro Con- vention oo-vention Centre.

ISO Bill Watt's Worlds IN THE CLUBS: At the opening perfor- mance Burton Cummings announced that his Im- perial Room engagement which concludes this Satur- day is sold out - strictly SRO - and invited the media to take its best shot. Hard to say whether he was being petulant or defiant but the remark was right up there in bad taste with his comment upon the mammary charms of a popular Stn columnist. Well, here we go with our best shot. We think Burton Cummings is a musical genius! That isn't to say that we like everything he does but his talent is undeniable as a composer, singer and musician. This time around he is accom- panied by only one live musician, the almost equally talented Jack Price. The rest of the musical background and the production values of light and varying sound are all compurterized. Now Cummings and Price do not perform to tape: they perform with the computerized backing that they create as we see and bear then. And, all the instruments heard are Played by Messrs Cumm- ings and Price. Quite remarkable. The question before the house, though. is whether or not it makes for good entertainment. For Cumm- ings fans there is no doubt. We were watching the au- dience - we always do - and were much taken by the bobbing head motions. rather like chickens peck- ing in the dmdten run before the roster. One wondered too, how many men in the pcedoassamiatly female auu- dience weretheaselves � to fend knowing staragate Burton Cumm- Ont young lady close to us was all over her escort. Lucky man. For the rest of us there are some reservations. For one thing the sound is cranked up so high that lyrics become difficult to hear. Our ears were ring- ing at the end of the two hour long show - Mr. Cum- mings is a generous per- former - and we were almost physically ill to the stomach. Former military men will recall how the artillery wear protective padding around the genitalia for protection against the con- cussion from heavy guns. One could almost recom- mend such amenities for a B.C. concert or perfor- mance. From all his talent we prefer his keyboard ar- tistry or perhaps we should say, wizardry. He plays eight to the bar better than anyone since Albert Am- mons and his chording is on a level with that of Joe Harnell. It doesn't really matter what we write about Bur- ton Cummings but we feel constrained to say that we recognize him for the musical genius he is. But. we have difficulty in accep- ting his defiance of those of us who are simply doing our job as we see it. Rita Coolidge opens nett Monday for a week's engagement. Miss Coolidge is an excellent singer and we loon forward to bearing ler again. Bet she doesn't make any bovine references. We'll bet too that Mr. Qenatriags cow wishes he had not been so impetuous.

Numerology has always struck us as one of the more useless of the occult arts or sciences. Yet, it's not for us to decry something about which many have strong feelings. With that in mind we commend to attention Numbers and You by IJoyd Strayhorn (Ballan- tine; Parapsychology) . It's an interesting primer on the subject and, taken, harmlessly, rather some fun. Some of the subject matter makes for great party conversation and we might even give it a whirl in selecting lottery numbers. The cognac's on us if it worts. MAN ABOUT TOWN: The other evening we decided to check out DeSoto's on Mt. Pleasant just south of Eglinton. There were several One of our earliest desires in a car was the Desoto Firedome 8 Coup6 and we wondered if the restaurant that now carries the name also had any il- lustration of it as part of the fifties decor. It doesn't but there are a couple of large scale mountings of DeSoto's latter and last Forward Look days. As well, DeSoto's ( we're talking the dub naw) used to be Xanadu's but prior to that it was a steak house where we used to take the children when they were very young. Finally, we were hungry and DeSoto's advertised B.B.Q. wings special held an almost clarion call for us. So we found ourself there muchly enjoying the wings, the ersatz decor and the good fifties music over the P.A. Then there was an unex- pected bonus. Sound Stage Productions of Scar- borough were boom their presentation of Grease prior to an upcoming theatre engagement in Etobicoke. (Etobicoke? ) Wisely, S.S.P. opted for a revue rather than a book presentation. DeSoto's is a nice place but not ideally suited for performing entertainment other than bands or small groups. There is no stage of any consequence and the Grease cast had to perform on the disco dance floor, rather like choreographed pit bulls. Sight lines were dreadful of course and the sound system far from ideal. Still, the freshness and downright SAB and dap- cing talent of the cast pilus the bouncy Grease music that sounds better all the time, came through for a most pleasant evening. We look forward to see- ing S.S.P. in full scale pro- ductions of Grease. Wonder if we could take along some of DeSoto's wings. SIGN OF THE TIMES: Although we still enjoy motion pictures we don't always enjoy going to see them. That's mainly because of the theatres themselves. We enjoy the Varsity Theatre however ( That's where we saw Big). It's clean. well maintained and the popcorn is drizzled with butter .. real butter. One takes a fancy for popcorn every so often and we always liked it at the Varsity where we could get it drowned in that golden nectar. We're not talking swimming in butter we're talking drowned in butter! Imagine our surprise and chagrin then to see a sign at the confection counter stating that it now costs a dime for an extra squirt. A dime for an extra squirt! Thanks to a succes- sion of boneheaded federal governments there is a two year supply of butter in storage and yet it now costs a dime for an extra squirt of butter!

The facilities are solely for the use of corporate members. Konca officials predict the centre will generate about 500 jobs, 100 in the health club and 400 in the corporate area. Constriction is expected to begin as soon as Scar- borough Council agrees to rezone the site. Konca of- ficials said they were at- tracted to Scarborough because of its large number of corporate head offices from which the club can draw for its members. They said the Milner Ave. project would be the first of many planned developments which could further enhance Scar- borough's image as a am- bo' business centre. $45 Million Corporate Centre by Sande Murphy A proposed $45 million playground for corporate executives has been pro- posed for the City of Scar- borough by Konca in- vestments, a Canadian - owned and operated development company. At the unveiling of the project at a press con- ference oo-ference last week, Konca officials said they are ung to a real need Metro Toronto Board of Trade Executive Summary Automobile Insurance Classification System In response to a govern- ment draft of regulations concerning a classification system for automobile in- surance, the board does not feel the proposed classification system will satisfy the perceived public desire for io mr rates. The board is in favour of a review board approach to automobile insurance premiums which would combine adequate controls with greater flenbility. Other suggestions by the board include: the rating system be designed for a more gradual increase in an insured's rates when, an event (against which the insurance was purchased occurs; motor vehicle mov- ing violations be taken into insurance rating calcula- tions. the classification of vehicle use be further qualified to provide greater equity and careful con- sideration be given to the weighting of various rating criteria to encourage and reward safe driving. Proposed Business Names Act. The board supports in principle the proposed Bunsuxw Names Act but recommends that registra- tion of sole proprietors car- rying on business in their own name be extended to partnerships where the business name includes the names of all of the part- ners. Older board recommen- dations include: registra- tion requirements of firms with a large number of partner be limited to 10 Partners; businesses with more than 10 partners be required to file a new declaration regarding changes on an arcual basis or, in the alternative, within 60 days after any changes; a draft of In ed rules regarding the use of deceptive business names be released for com- partnership with a late filing o declaration not be ab- solutely precluded from commencing an action that deals with events prior to the late filing. Literacy. Nahmeracy and Other Basic Learning Skills. The board agrees with part of a recent education study recommending that there can be no effective pursuit of educational ex- cellence without mean- ingful accountability, and there can be no meaningful accountability without measurable standards of accomplishment. The board supports the study's suggestion that there should be some form of province -wide standard of knowledge skills re- quired by students. for a place where these ex- ecutives can relieve pressure in a setting which combines business and pleasure under one roof. The club, to be called the Bauluma Corporate Cen- tre, will be located on 6.4 acres on Milner Ave. just north of Highway 401 bet- ween McCowan and Markham Rds.

Who was the "White Rabbit" during World War II? K.B. A. Forest Frederick Edward Yeo -Thomas (1902-1964) was the World War II British intelligence officer who held the code name "White Rabbit". After the fall of France small resistance groups loyal to DeGaulle, sprang up but their ef- forts were uncoordinated until Yeo -Thomas and others parachuted into France and succeeded in uniting the various groups into a secret army. Yeo -Thomas made two more secret trips behind enemy lines to coordinate and assist the Resistance movements and in 1944 was captured by the Germans in Paris and im- prisoned. During a long period of imprisonment and torture he said nothing of value to the enemy and made several bold but un- successful attempts to escape. Eventually he organized an escape with ten others from Gruihainigen Stalag, who helped him reach the advancing American forces in 1945. Yeo -Thomas was among the most outstanding British in- telligence agents who worked behind enemy lines and his resourcefulness and endurance were rewarded by the George Cross, the Military Cross and bar. the Polish Cross of Merit. the croix de guerre. He was also a commander in the Legion of Honour. An excellent arrant of his adventures can be read in Bruce '.Marshall's. The %%Nte Rabbit.

Ontario Riding Since September 1964 election of the Progressive Conser- vative government in Ottawa, the Ontario economy has been on the upswing. I would like to take this opportunity to point out to you some of the achievements this government has accomplished. From September 1984, 611,000 jobs have been created in Ontario, at a rate of 14,209 jobs a month. The Ontario unemployment rate has fallen from 9.4 percent to 4.8 per- cent, a decline of 4.6 percentage points. Which represents a drop in unemployment by 195,000. Some other interesting facts which apply to the Ontario economy are: The Canadian - U.S. Free Trade Deal will lead to 94,847 additional jobs in Ontario. A Canadian Federation of Independent Business survey showed that 37.6% of Ontario small business owners believe the Free Trade Agreement will have a positive effect on their business. The March national inflation rate was 4.1%. Between 1964 and 1987, the average rates of inflation in Ottawa (4%) and Toronto (4.7%) were well below the average rates of 8.3% and 8.6% under the Liberals between 1960 and 1984. Retail sales are up 40.9% since the 1984 election. Farm cash receipts in 1987 were up 6.6% compared to 1964. Capital expenditures of selected companies increased by 7.8% in 1967. compared to 1986. and are expected to increase by 2.2% in 1988. These achievements demonstrate how this government's policies are working to build a better future for Ontario. Queen's Park Report from Norah Stoner 4' - 1W MPP Durham West The Government has introduced an Ontario Home Ownership Savings Plan (OHSOP, for first time homebuyers. Revenue Minister Bernard Grandmaitre recently tabled legislation implemmemtitig the 1988 Ontario budget's pro- posal to provide tax crediits to assist Ontario residents to save for the purchase of a first bane. The proposed kgslation, Bill 126, provides that any resi- dent of Ontario at least 18 years of age and over, and space if married, may make annual contributions of up to $2,000 in each of five consecutive Live years for the purpose of saving for the purchase of a first hone by 1999. A full 25 percent antral OHOSP tax credit will be available for individuals and couples with an..uW incorrmes not exceeding $20,000 and $40.000 respectively. A reduced tax credit will be available if income exceeds thus amounts. These tax credits will not apply to individuals and couples with antral incomes at or above $40,000 and $80,000 respectively. Detailed information about OHOSP and the Ontario tax credits can be obtained from the Ministry of Revenue by calling 9654470 or 1-800-2633960.
