Sept. 28, 1988 Opinion a page for expression for you and us The Ben Johnson Affair by Bob Watson Canadians, and especially those from this part of our country, are reeling from the announcement that our favourite athlete has been reported to have taken illegal drugs at the Olympics. When Ben Johnson won the gold medal in the 100 metres sprint and got another world record, we all were elated with his achievement. A very unusual emotion swept through the country and almost everyone was talking about Ben Johnson Then the word came that tests had revealed that he had used banned drugs. Canadians are puzzled, disappointed and angry at this because we can't believe it and we can't understand what has happened. After listerring to almost everyone involved in the Olympics we still don't know if Ben actually did take drugs because he is flying from Korea to the United States. There doesn't seem to be any real answers front his coach or doctor. Canadians want to know "What Really Happened?" - and they really want to hear from Ben Johnson himself. Did be do it and if so, why? We Don't Agree by Bob Watson The recent pre-election gesture of the Mulroney govern- ment to take $300 million of tax money. which will have to be added to our huge national debt. to pay compensation to Japanese Canadians because our federal government mov- ed them from the BC coast inland to camps and sold off their properties is, in our opinion, very wrong. Former Prime Minister Pierre Ttudeau said "you cannot correct the past' Those of is who lived through World war II have, we believe, quite a different view of this situation than young chaps such as Brian Mulroney. The moving of the Japanese Canadians from the coast was a teary military move dictated by the attack by the Japanese at Pearl Harbour. Many of us who actually fought the Japanese in Asia have different feelings that our PM would not have felt. There were 1700 Canadians in Hoag Kong who came hone after six years of imprisonment by the Japanese who would argue that Japanese Canadians didn't suffer as much as they did. There are many of us from the armed forces who could tell tales of terrible times by Japanese troops in Asia - but we don't because times have moved an and that is in the past. If our government is going to recompense everyone who has been done %Tong in the past the lineup at Ottawa will be long and expensive. This move by Mulroney is sheer Politics and very unfortunate because most of us have friends who are of Japanese ancestry and we have no com- plaints about any of then. In fact. Japanese Canadians have worked and been very successful in business for a long time. Those born here are true Canadians and we regret this move by the government which will only bring feelings from World War I1. A Clarification Dear Editor: In response to the article "Resi&w to Tell Council How Much They're Worth", dated Sept. 14th W the Scarborough News, I would like to clarify the concern that I expressed. it was my intention to speak towards the mandate of Recrea- tion & Parts Department and it was net my intenCioO to Un - ply that Recreation & Parks would lack sensitivity towards social I have alb t that Recreation & Parks carried at their mandate in an excellent manner. My reason for ad- dressing Council on that matter was to express my concern that social development would not be lost in the restructur- ing of Council. Social development deserves attention at the local level. Sincerely, Barbara Jamieson Member of The Scarborough Housing Workgroup Did You Know ...

What is the Order of Ontario, you might well ask? The Order of Ontario is one of four major Ontario Government medals. the three others being .. The Ontario Medal For Good Citizenship, the Ontario Medal For Police Bravery and the Ontario Medal For Flrefighters, which are Boor dinated by the Secretariat. The Order of Ontario is the province's newest medal, established in 1996 it recognizes the highest degree of ex- cellence achieved by Ontario residents, in any field or endeavour. In most cases the outstanding degree of ex- cellence has brought international recognition to the in- dividual and to the province. The closing date for nominations this year is Mon. Oct. 31st. If you would like a nomination form, or more informa- tion on any of the major Ontario medals don't hesitate to drop in or call your local MPP's corstibhency office. . ...... ...... .. . . . . . . Bob's Notes This Is Private Property Week Private Property Week, now in its ninth year, is a pro- vince wide program designed to stress the importance of property rights and to celebrate the fundamental rights that Canadians enjoy to own and utilize real estate. "This country was founded by individuals looking for freedom and the opportunity to provide a better standard of living for themselves and their families," Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA) President James Cathcart noted. "Real estate ownership has always been one of the most basic of our freedoms and we don't want to see that freedom eroded by an ever increasing flow of restrictions placed on property ownership.- Property tarians and rights i W a little understood concept among On- PropertY hopes to educate people about their importance in their lives and the lives of their children. At its most basic, property rights include the right to own, build upon, develop, sell, use and bequeath real estate. Today, those fundamental rights are being eroded by a number of governmental and quasi -governmental bodies who impose limitations that have very little to do with Public good. EveU province has had its share of cases in which individuals last their property rights and suffered personal and financial hardship due to some statutory restriction on their rights as property owners. For example, in Ontario, there are more than 70o laws or Parts of laws that directly affect your not to use and enjoy Private property. These do not include municipal laws such as zoning and planning. While noting that the rights of society as a whole must ultimately come first and that some laws are necessary for the Preservation of the public good to ensure that society is well served, OREA remains concerned that the balance between public good and private rights must be strictly maintained and that unless the trend is reversed the underlying value of real estate in the Province of Ontario will be adversely affected. Motor Vehicle Repair Protection Ontario car owners will be better protected now that a new motor vehicle repair law has been passed Consumer Minister William Wrye has announced. As of Oct. 1, the Motor Vehicle Repair Act will require mandatory warran- ties on new and reconditioned parts and associated labor, written estimates on request, and full disclosure of repair rates. Signs Appearing Everywhere' The reecmt introduction of large billboards prominently displaying alcohol products has caused Alcohol & Drug Concerns, Inc. to express concern. This new advertising ploy of the alcohol beverage industry results from a change to 'the Directives of Advertising and Sales Promotion' issued by the LLBO. While permitting this outdoor advertis- ing for the first time, the U.HO apparently tecogtrizes potential adverse P 15P r -s of such advertising upon children and teens, and so the directive forbids the posting of such ads within 200 metres of schools and churches. But kids don't go just to chinch and school, points out Alcohol & Drug Concerns, Inc. and clearly these lifestyle ads are sem by children. "At a time when alcohol abuse is recolp ., I as a serious problem among young people, we don't need new techniques to encourage drinking," says Karl Burden, Executive Director. ET Shatters Sales Records "ET The Extra -Terrestrial" has shattered all previous pre -book sales with record bceaidmg figures of 10,673,302 units, Gene F. Giaquinto, president of MCA Hone Enter- tainment. Worldwide has announced. This number represents arty orders as the official close of solicitation will be Sept. 29. Mart Abbott Science Centre Head The Hon_ Lily Oddie Munro, Minister of Culture and Com- muuhicatioas and George A. Cion, Chairman of the Board at the Ontario Science Centre have announced the appoug- ment of Mark Abbott PhD., as Director General of the On- tario Science Centre.

Fish Hatchery Opened The a fish Atikokan Sportsmen's Conservation Club has opened hatchery on Icy take, northeast of the town of Atikokan, near Hydro's thermal generating station. Volunteer club members put in over 3,000 hours of wort on the project and will operate the hatchery, raising the fish to fingerling size before releasing them in designated lakes. The club received donations from numerous area businesses and industries, including Ontario Hydro, which was the largest donor. Hydro donated surplus materials from construction at the Atikokan generating station. ----- -----------------r-- - Give A Gift That Lasts All Year!

One is vain enough to think that some might have noted the recent absence of our column. Blame it on a retinal detachment which has been corrected by the good people at St. Michael's Hospital. What follows is err first venture back at the old Smith -Corona and one hopes, as always, that readers will find our efforts pleasing. Allow us, however, su>ffrcient space and time to exprwes our thanks in print to the entire staff and organization at St. Mike's. It has become rather much de rigetw of late to complain about hospitals and one's treatment in them. Well, perhaps some have reason for complaint bort not this writer, not after spending time in St. Mike's. The surgical skill of the retina staff is beyond ques- tion and there is truly :nothing we can offer as fur- ther praise. But a hospital offers, or should offer more than skill; it offers heart. That quality St. Mike's has in abundance. There are a score and more incidents of individual kindness one could offer but one in par- ticular stands out in our mind. We shall not forget the kindness of the night nurse who brought us a freshly prepared cup of cof- fee late at night, long after the kitchens had closed. She is truly an angel and the coffee truly ambrosial. God bless, and thank you. ON STAGE: We understand that Spoils of war starring Kate Nelligan at the Royal Alex has been received somewhat less than en- thusiastically by the local critics. Watch for extensive rewriting before it even- tually reaches Broadway. In the meantime we make the same suggestion we did when Sweet Bird Of Youth starring Joanne Woodward played here recently. Go see it. Yes, go see it. In the same way as it was a pleasure to watch Joanne Woodward tackle un- -�� Around and About Your Dining & Entertainment Guide satisfactory material, it should be pleasurable to watch the hugely talented :Kate Nelligan deal with her inferior vehicle.

Willowdale With the passing of International literacy Day on Sept. 8, we must maintain the momentum that has built up towards the eradication of illiteracy. Most people don't realize the extent of the problem of il- literacy in our society, or the cost both in economic and in human terms. To most people illiteracy means not (knowing 'how to read or write, but in our information filled society, literacy goes beyond the basic definition of simply being able to mead. Functional illiteracy is defined as having skills below those ecpected d a grade eine graduate. Arecent survey by Southam News revealed that nearly 40M Canadian in four over the age of 18 years could not understand a series of simple written quesitons about everyday situations. In Ontario, it is estimated that over 1,000,000 adults are fractionally illiterate and 250,000 lack core literacy skills (basic reading and writing). even more �While them Sg� These m shocking, the human oasts are ting. people could not even re8d this article to find out that help is available. Try to think of the obstacles that they face. Think of what it must be like to look at a newspaper headline, and to have to guess from the photographs what is Clon in the world, or the country, or in your own city! 'drink of a medical prescription and not being able to read the instructions on the bottle! I wonder what it most be like to continuously carry the secret of illiteracy at all times, always fearful that your employer, neighbour, or even a child will discover your ter- rible deficiency. Illiteracy is a crippling affliction, a ban. dicap that is as difficult to bear as blindness or deafness. The illiterate person dwells in a country where a foreign, in- comprehensible language holds all the secxets to a normal, comfortable life. Functional illiteracy is a different form of this affliction, but no less crippling. Many people who possessed adequate literacy skills years ago are now beginning to fall behind in the workplace. Blue collar workers are now required to spend about one. and-o-balf bourn per day reading complex job-related in- structions such as manuals to operate heavy machinery, to repair electronic equipment, and warnings about the bandl- ing of toxic chemicals. This year, the Government of Ontario is spending 950 minion to support a wide range of educational programs that have a literacy component. however, as the lion. Alvin Ayling. Minister of Skills Development recently said, "Government funds alone are not enough. Community groups, business, industry, and labour have to join us as Partners wooing together to ease the burdens of illiterate adults vim have to function in this complex, Wchno ftical society." As well, the government announced grants of 92,112,456. to three Ontario labour organizations to establish woAplace-related limey training through their unions, and 94,425,o00. to 13'1 community literacy groups and literacy umbrella organizations.

Health Minister Elinor an- nounced approval of the funding during the lkidcoH a this year's fund-raising campaign.

"Our $10 million is contingent upon the forma- tion of a genuine park or ecological reserve," be told reporters. Browes, who has been lobbying the government to agree to the funding, said the Rouge was a "precious treasure" for the entire country. She said the Rouge would become the first natural preserve in an urban area in Canada. The provincial environ- ment minister said he was pleased at the federal offer and said the province is also committed to saving the Rouge although it still has to decide how much to save.

Federal Transport Minister Benoit Bouchard annouuc'ed last week that trains with dangerous goods could only travel at a maximum of 40 lona (25 mph) on three high risk fines in Metro. These lines are the CP line from Kipling Ave. in Etobicoke to the Agincourt Marshalling Yard in north Scarborough, CN's McT ier subdivision in the west end and CN's line from its McMillan Yard along the York Subdivision east to Doncaster. The announcement was part of the government's response to the report of the task force which earlier this year studied the transportation of dangerous goods through Metro. Bouchard tabled the report and sent it to the House of C comms' stan- ding committee on trasnnportabom This com- mittee will bold bearings and make recommenda- tions to Bouchard. The task force report conch led there was no need to reduce the speed or to relocate linesdangerow goods carrying Metro to less populated outside areas. But Metro Toronto and its six municipalities have urged the government to both reduce speed and relocate the lines because of the high risk to densely populated aress; through which the lines pass. The speed limit of trains with hazardous goods through Scarborough is currently 80 km ; b (50 mph). CP voluntarily reduced the of bum through the Qty speed Toronto to 40 kin, h but refused to extend it tbragb the rest of Metro. Ma Con1troller .1413,m Trimmer, who has lobbied Bouchard to order a speed reduction through Scarborocu>gtn„ said she was disappointed that the rail line east of the marshalling Yard was not included in his order. The speed rediction is to be monitored by the Na- tional Transportation Agency.

A- "Wicker" is a general to applied to many different types of natural and man-made weaving materials. Among the natural fibers are rattan, cane, reed, bamboo, willow. and rush- Synthetic products such as paper and card are also common- The material used depends upon its availability, cost, and inherent CKs- Sturdy, thick rattan is ideal for the framework of furniture while flexible reed and cane are easily woven into seats.

Can you give me information about different kinds of hyenas? C.T. A. The most famous hyena is the spotted, or laughing hyena. Its high, weird howl resembles a hysterical human laugh. The spotted hyena lives in Africa south of the Sahara Desert. A second type of hyena is the striped hyena. Tbey are smaller than their cousins and live in northern Africa and in Asia from Turkey to India. The brown hyena has long hair on its back and striped legs. It lives in southern Africa and has been accused of preying on livestock. Cattlemen destroyed many of these wild animals before they were pro- tected in parks and game reserves. Hyenas are carnivores. They hunt live prey and also feed on the remains of dead animals. They have very strong jaws which enable them to crush and digest bones as well as flesh. The calcium from the powdered bone turns their dung white.
