Boost To Durham Sport Fishing
The lure of sport fishing
and what it could mean to
Durham Region is the
focus of a new study an-
nounced by the Economic
Development Department
for the Region.
This study is being
undertaken as a result of
several meetings over the
past year of the Durham
Region Sport Fishing Ad-
visory Committee, an ad
hoc group concerned with
the future of sport fishing
in Durham. The group is
comprised of members of
the sport fishing communi-
ty, representatives from
the Ministry of Natural
Resources, the Central
Lake Ontario Conservation
Authority and staff
members of the Economic
Development Department.
The committee strongly
supports the study which
recommend improvements
and actions which would
further enhance recrea-
tional and business oppor-
tunnies in Durham Region -
Sport fishing is becoming
an increasingly popular
recreational activity in
Durham Region. This
popularity is not only at-
tracting regional residents
but also visitors from other
parts of Ontario and
neighbouring areas of the
United State, thereby con-
tributing to the growth of
the tourism industry and
further diversifying the
economy.Regional
A reflection of this in-
creased activity has been
the development and
growth of a number of
sport fishing derbies and
contests. These
developments in turn have
contributed to a rapid
growth in support in-
dustries such as charter
boat operators, guide ser-
vices and small and large
firms which supply ser-
vices and equipment.

However, it is felt that
sport fishing has an even
greater potential to
generate social and
economic benefits than is
presently being realized
This study, in addressing
this potential, will serve as
a catalyrt fort expansion
of this important segment
of the local economy.
The Committee has an-
nounced the selection of
Montgomery Consultants
to undertake this period.
This selection was based
upon the firm's extensive
background in economic
development, marketing,
promotion and particularly
sport fishing. Mr. Mon-
tgomery will be consulting
extensively with private
and public organizations
and individuals in order to
gain a thorough understan-
ding of this industry as it
pertains to Durham
Region.

Where Are We Going?
by Bob Watson
This past week the Canadian dollar's value to the US
dollar rose dramatically and despite this the head of the
Bank of Canada decided to lower the interest rate by only a
mere few points. To add to the peculiar situation the Cana-
dian Imperial Bank of Commerce announced that its mor-
tgage rate was going up 124%!
So much for intelligent money management in our coun-
try•: The dollar gets stronger, the Bank of Canada won't
lower the prime rate and one bank decides to go the op-
posite direction and push mortgage interest rates up. This
all makes for a great economy. We believe that the two
main pillars of a good economy is the ability of people to
buy a car and more importantly, a house. If interest rates
continue to roll upwards, both of these mainstays of the
economy will collapse and we will enjoy another recession.
It seems obvious to even a casual observer that last week
the prime rate should have been reduced by one-quarter
percentage in order to keep mortgages within the reach of
the average person. Instead we have a very small interest
drop which doesn't make economic sense.
One of the first moves of the Prime Minister we believe, is
to discuss this problem with the head of the Bank of Canada
and try and convince him that individual Canadians come
before the interest of our large banks. Perhaps if his
reasoning for high interest rates is not based on logic, he
should be replaced.
A lower priced Canadian dollar is ideal for our exporters
and lower interest rates are better for the consumer - so
why are we experiencing the tel
Just 14 Years Late
M Bob Watson
Well, top officials are fraalh• saying that the Malton air-
port is inadequate for the traffic being generated in Toronto
area' Fin alh• some top brass are saying what any observer
knew some 14 years ago - that if you continue to build and
double the population of the Metro Toronto area you will
need another international airport.
Of course. now someone at Queen's Park might realize
that the Pickering airport. with its necessary roads like
Hwy. 407. are necessary. but Premier Peterson seems to be
very sloe on this topic. At Ottawa anything for Ontario
seems to get a lav priority compared to the PM's home pro -
ounce of Quebec. where a second large airport (Mirabe l ) for
Montreal stands idly by and wasted from the Trudeau era.
And besides our airport facilities we believe that atten-
tionshould be paid to curtailing the future growth of this ur-
banized area now spreading outwards at a great rate.
Former Premier Bill Davis was going to give tis a greenbelt
to contain growth - but he newer did. We also need highways
to handle the traffic that is already here, which former
Premier Bill Davis wouldn't spend money on roads and the
current Premier of Ontario seems against the idea as well.
All we say is, ..wake up Queen's Park and Ottawa" before
we all moan the loss of a great vibrant urban area known as
Metro Toronto and area.
:Metro Home Show '89
More than 350 exhibitors representing over 2,000 com-
panies have taken display space at the fifth annual Metro
Home Slow Jan. 18-22 in the Metro Toronto Convention Cen-
tre. Occupying the 400,000 sq. ft. convention centre,
fireplaces and furnaces, floor coverings and fine fur-

First Snow
As the first flakes of
the season tumble down,
children and the winter
sport lovers whoop for joy
while oldsters, with pouting
expressions, shiver, anticipating
the months ahead.
On the ground the snow
creates a lovely illusion
for me.
But, in no time, like all
my other illusions, it
disappears.

A team of doctors at
Scarborough General
Hospital have agreed to
perform reconstructive
surgery on an 18 month old
Guyanese girl. who was
born with a severe cleft -
palate. Little Guitree Sur-
sattie Bissoon also has a
bilateral cleft lip ( part of
the lip is mkaing) and the
prolabium ( the prominent
central part of the upper
lip) with two teeth attach-
ed, protrudes from her
mouth.
Guitree's parents, who
are farmers from West
Bank Demerara, were told
by doctors in Guyana there
is neither the medical skill
nor the facilities in their
native country to perform
the necessary surgery.
After eight months of im-
migration paperwork with
the assistance from
relatives in Markham and
the co-operation of the
Guyanese Heritage and
Cultural Association in
Toronto and Scarborough
General Hospital, Guitree
( pronounced Guy -tree) ar-
rived in Canada at the end
of October.
Dr. Lloyd Carlson will be
helping the team and Dr.
Sandra Voice will be per-
forming the surgery in two
stages. The first operation
will be a lip adhesion to br-
ing whatever tissue possi-
ble across the gap and to
mold the central part of the
child's face. This operation
will take place in about six
weeks.
Approximately eight
months after the initial
operation, a second
surgical procedure will
repair Guitree's lip and
palate. This schedule will
accommodate visa restric-
tions for Guitree's mother
Madai who is staying with
relatives in Toronto.
To prepare for the opera-
tion Guitree has been wear-
ing a splinting device,
made by SGH occupational
therapists, which applies
pressure to a silicone mold
fitted to her mouth Doc-
tors hope this ortbotic
device will centralize and
help push Deet the pm
labium. The splint
resembles a child's hockey
helmet and can be easily
removed to allow Guitree
to eat.
All of the physicians who
will be working with
Guitree have agreed to pro-
vide their skill and time at
no cost. However, hospital
fees and therapy visits - oc-
cupational
acupational therapy and
speech therapy - must be
paid for by the patient. An
appeal has been launched
through the Association of
Concerned Guyanese to
hip pay hospital costs-
Statfacts On Lotteries
While Ontario recorded the highest ticket sales - over $1
billion in 1985 - Quebecers are the most ardent players, with
almost eight out of 10 families reporting ticket purchases in
1986 and average spending of $187 per family.
Ticket buying ran close to the 70% national average in
New Brunswick, Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia,
slightly below in Nova Scotia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan,
and below 50% in both Newfoundland and Prince Edward
Island.
Almost $1.3 billion was returned as prizes in 1965. Most of
these winnings were in the 82, $5 and $10 categories.
The odds of winning in the lotteries start at about one in
-three for the minor prizes and can go as high as one in 14
million. Chances at a major prize of $100,000 or more in the
major lotteries start at one in 500,000.
Despite the odds, the lotteries handed out some 100 prizes
of El million or more in 1985.
'Bob's Notes
Santa Letter Writing Program
Canada Post Corporation employees, who last year
volunteered to answer close to 800,000 letters Santa Claus
received from children across Canada and other parts of
the world, are geared up to do it again this year.
"As in previous years, every child who writes a letter to
Santa, addresses it correctly and includes a return address,
will receive a reply from the North Pole," said Winne
Labelle, this year's national coordinator at Canada Post for
Santa's letter writing program.
The program had a modest debut in 1973. That was when
a handful of postal employees across the country answered
a few thousand letters addressed simply to "Santa Claus„
while several thousands more were addressed to him in
care of particular department stores and delivered to those
stores.
Inst year, 8,516 postal employees volunteered their per-
sonal time to reply to the nearly 800,000 letters. They were
assisted in their letter writing endeavours by senior
citizens, community and professional groups across the
country.
Letters to Santa should be sent to the following address:
Santa Claus, North Pole, Canada, HOH OHO.
Dryers To Heat Wash Water
Ontario Hydro will test a new heat pump/heat recovery
system at its Orangeville trades training centre next year.
The system will use waste heat from clothes dryers to beat
water for washers at the centre's laundry facility.
The training centre operates like a small hotel, with a
comnnential size laundry facility on site. Over the next few
months the heat pump system will be installed to draw ex-
cess heat and humidity from the dryers and laundry area
and use it to beat water. It's expected almost all the energy
currently needed to beat water will be provided by the heat
pump, saving energy and making the work area more com-
fortable for staff.
(Festival Of Arts dr Crafts
Chnstmas-time means craft time and you could find that
perfect gift at aha 90th Annual Festival of Arts & Crafts,
held at the Kitchener Farmers' Market Sundays from now
through Dec. 18th, 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. There are
displays and demonstrations; by some of Ontario's finest ar-
tisans and all crafts are for sale. Admission is free, and
there's plenty of free parking at Market Square on the cor-
ner of Duke and Frederick Streets. Downtown Kitchener.
Electricity Use In October
Moue than 10.8 million megawatt -hours of electricity
were tared by customers in October. 3.2 percent more than
in October of 1947. The highest peak demand last month
(the point of time when the most power is being consumed)
CTed on the last day of the month. On October 31, at 4:30
p.m. the peak reached 18,730 megawatts.
The previous weekend, electricity demand hit a higher
level than expected when customers turned an lights and
beating to cope with cold, rainy weather. On Saturday. Oc-
tober 29. demand grew 1,100 megawatts more than was
forecast.
Record Home Purchases Continue
Canada's residential resale market continues to race
towards a record year according to The Canadian Real
Estate Association (CREA) .
A total of 16,099 honkies were purchased in Canada's 24
metropolitan centres in October, representing an increase
of 3.7 percent compared with 15.528 recorded a year earlier.

estimate without authorization;
• The repairer must offer
return of removed parts to the
consumer when the work is
authorized;
• A warranty must be provided
on new or reconditioned parts

You must surely have
seen the huge book store
displays of Sarum /Edward
1Rutherfurd ( Ivy Books) .
The book well deserves the
intense promotion it has
received.
It's a huge - over 1000
pages - novel written in a
manner rather like that of
Michenet.
The word Sarum is,
strictly speaking, an inac-
curate tendering of the ab-
breviation used by
medieval scribes for
Salisbury and the book
traces its history through
generations of families who
have lived there. It begins
about 7500 B.C. and con -
tines to 1985. The reader is
witness to the creation of
the island of Britain and a
helicopter visit by the

Prince of Wales.
Mr. Rutherfurd is quite
ingenious as he describes
the events in between all
the while intertwining five
families and their descen-
dants. One has no idea how
long he spent in the crea-
tion of the book but what
ever the effort it is well
worth it.
To be sure, Sarum is not
always the easiest of books
to read. The sheer scope of
It sometimes daunts. We
found it helpful to put it
aside from time to time and
make a welcome return.
Others, however, might
elect to read it straight
through. Each will have to
make his or her own deci-
sion. All will enjoy it.
Now that the Vatican has
officially declared The
Shroud of Turin to be a fake
(what, after all, did one
really think the Vatican
could do?) some of the im-
Mof Children of the
Shroud, Garfield Reeves -
Stevens ( Doubleday) has
been lost.
Even so, it's a tight
thriller and well worth
one's attention and in-

The premise is that a
scientist has taken "blood"
scrapings in secret from
the Shroud. He has then us-
ed advanced genetic
techniques to clone
physical descendants of
Jesus, complete with His
powers.
The children are
separated but there is a
mental bond that unites
them all though they are
not aware of what it is.
The drama begins when
a T.V. evangelist, a thinly
disguised version of you -
know -who discovers the ex-
istence of the children of
the shroud and sets out to
acquire them and use them
for his maniacal purposes.
It would be unfair to
divulge anything else about
the book. Please take our
word that it is exciting and
holds the reader right to
the ending far fetched as it
might be. (A mysterious
character whispers to one
of the children "I knew
your Father".)
No Sense of Evil James
Barras (Ivy) makes no
sense at all to this
reviewer. Purportedly a
definitive version of the
case of E. Herbert Nor-
man, we found it so filled
with suspicions and innuen-
do as to be useless.

To wit: the pouch under a
pelican's bill can bold up to
25 pounds of fish or 3
gallons of water. There are
crabs that climb trees to
snip off coconuts. The lips
of a hippopotamus are
nearly two feet wide.
Well all right: those facts
are clearly demonstrable.

Brilliant and bold it has an
emotion about it that can
be described only as de-
fiant.
It is one of the works in-
cluded on this quite
remarkable CD. Now this
is music that demands and
commands attention. It
cannot be ignored or pop-
ped into the CD player
simply to provide
background music. (Of
course no music should be
so relegated but it is a fact
that some music deserves
fess attention than alms.)
It is not for the faint of
Neither is it for a mum-
cian incapable of presen-
ting Rakhmamnov's music
with the passion it can-
mands. Miss Deyanova is
uanknown to us but we sug-
gest that she plays
Rakhmaninov better than
anyone we have heard to
date with the possible ex-
ception of Garrick Ohlson.
Her Conger work is in-
tricate as demanded but
more than that, there is the
power of her forte equalled
only by the delicacy of her
piano even when extended
into diminuendo.
This is perhaps not an
every day listening ex-
perience. It's probably best
enjoyed on a rainy Sunday
afternoon before a fire
while sipping brandy and,
if one still indulges, smok-
ing a Romeo y Julietta.

Decisive Action Protects Ontario Environment
The government has strongly reinforced its continued
commitment to a clean environment with decisive action on
several fronts.
Initiatives such as the Conservation Land Tax Reduction
:Program, the monitoring of industrial chemicals in lakes
and rivers and measures toward recycling are all aimed at
combating pollutants on land, through our waterways and
in the air.
Tax Program Will Preserve "Natural State" of Conserva-
tion lands
Natural Resources Minister Vince Kerrie has introduced
a precedent setting tax rebate program that could preserve
up to a quarter of a million hectares of Ontario conservation
land.
The program, the fust in Canada, will provide owners of
specific conservation lands with up to a 100 percent rebate
of municipal taxes. "In effect," Mr. Kerrio said, "we are
telling most private landowners, if you preserve yotw con-
servation lands in their natural state, we'll refund all the
municipal taxes you pay on those lands."
Lands that qualify taxies• the Conservation Land Tax
Reduction Program include Class 1, 2 and 3 wetlands, pro-
vincially significant areas of Natural and Scientific in-
terest; lands designated as Escarpment Natural Areas
within the Niagara Escarpment Plan, Conservation
Authority lands that do not produce revenue and other con-
servation lands owned by non-profit groups.
The program lives up to a government commitment to
ease the property tax burden threatening the natural
heritage value of these important lands. "It reaffirms our
government's commitment to preserving Ontario's
w+edands and conservation lards," Mr. Kerrio said.

to monitor the wastewater they discharge to lakes and
rivers for 148 contaminants.
"Today we have taken a step forward in our program
that, over time, will virtually eliminate persistent toxic
chemicals from discharges to Ontario's waterways," Mr.
Bradley said. "We will use monitoring data to set stringent
discharge limits for organic chemical manufacturers."
Under the terms of the regulation, which is currently in
draft form for a 3o day public review, each plant must sam-
ple its own discharges and have them tested to ministry
specification, with random ministry audits to verify that
results are accurate and representative. The regulation
stipulates quality control and quality assurance procedures
for collecting, storing, analysing and checking samples.
Costs incurred under the regulation will be borne by the in-
dustry.
Enforcement of the regulation is provided under the On-
tario Environmental Protection Act. Violators face fires of
up to $50,000 a day.
!Province's Investment in Recycling Increased Ten Feld in
Three Years
Recycling is catching on in Ontario, sparked by a serious
[financial commitment by the province. From $750,000 in
1985, the province's investment in recycling has grown to
x1.7 million dollars this year. The result is a greater com-
munity awareness of the benefits of recycling and a desire
to recycle.
In a speech to the Recycling Council of Ontario's antral
conference, Environment Minister Jim Bradley said that
the ntlptber of municipalities now [sing the Blue Box curb-
side recycling programs has doubled in the last year to 92
while "the momentum keeps building' The five cities and
one borough that make up Metropolitan Toronto have also
announced that they will participate in 'Blue Box'.
This month, Mr. Bradley and Premier David Peterson
will be presenting the symbolic "one -millionth" Blue Box to
go into household use. The Minister told the conference that
he expects to see a target level of 1,200,000 blue boxes
achieved shortly thereafter.
"Our province," Mr. Bradley said, "generates enough
garbage every year to fill a line of garbage trucks stret-
dung from Windsor to Whitehorse. Add the commercial

The Algarve. Portugal's
southernmost province, is
a true sunseeker's
paradise, offering all year
round sunshine and over
150 miles of superb sandy
beaches.
In fact. the Algarve
averages over 3300 hours of
sunshine per year, more
than most Mediterranean
resorts, and has beaches
which cannot be bettered
anywhere in Europe. Its
privileged south facing
position means that the
Algarve coast is totally un-
polluted and its su manus
never become unbearably
hot.
The temptation to build a
solid wall of hotels along
the coast bas been resisted
and instead there is mik
after mile of golden
beaches and small sandy
coves with interesting rock
formations, interspersed
with busy fishing ports,
whitewashed villages, lux-
ury hotels and tasteful villa
Firs tors to the
Algarve are often astound-
ed by its , and the
event, coming so dose to
the festive season.
Louis and Lina Qtahco
have been enchusiasticauy
involved in helping to
organize these benefit con-
certs, for the past four
years and their artists
friends have been generous
in donating tbeir talents
and time for the cause.
The funds raised are
directed to the drought and
famine stricken Northern
Kenya and Southern
Ethiopia for the drilling of
wells. The Consolata Mis-
sionaries have been active
in these arras since the
beginning of the century
and they are instrurrhental
in relaying the desperate
conditions of these people,
especially the children.
Patrons" tickets are
available at $100 which in-
cludes a post -performance
reception with the artists.
Ticket prices are: $35, $25,
and $20 ( tax incl.) and are
availabe at the Roy Thom-
son Hall and Massey Hall
Box Offices: 593-4828 or at
the Consolata Mis-
sionaries: 749-8907 or
743-6864.

profusion of wild flowers,
especially in January when
the landscape is covered in
delicate white almond
blossom.
Traces of 5W years of
Moorish occupation are to
be found in the squat
whitewashed houses, in-
tricately decorated
chimney pots, brightly col-
oured fishing boats and
azulejos - the blue and
white tiks which cover the
walls of churches.
Algarve markets are a
revelation, colourful and
noisy - you can buy almost
anything there and no trip
is complete without
bargaining with the locals.
Handicrafts include atWw-
tive and good value
ceramics, tiles, leather
goods, copperware, cork,
straw and cane products.
In the larger resorts
there are many diwothe-
ques and night dubs and
three casinos, at
Vilanoura, >llonte Gordo
and Alvor. Everywhere
you will find good value
restaurants, offering both
local and international
specialities. The Algarve is
particularly famous for its

special interest groups, parents, staff, employee organizations,
and members of the general public to submit suggestions and

The Board's five-year planning guide is reviewed and revised

Vachon Renews Its Support Of Cross -Country Skiing
Vachon will again lend
its support to the develop-
ment of cross country ski-
ing on a national level as
well as to Cross Country
Canada when it resumes its
role as sponsor to the
Vachon Cup and to the Na-
tional Team in addition to
subsidizing a private team
known as the Vachon
Team.
Launched two years ago,
the Vachon Cup program is
a series of 16 races held at
various points across the
country and permitting
skiers from all provinces to
compete against members
of the national team.
This series, which has
been very successful over
the past two years, plays
an important role in the
evolution of Canadian cross
country competition at all
levels, from beginner to ex-
pert. The Vachon sponsor-
ship program provides
financial aid to organizaing
clubs in addition to
technical support on com-
petition sites and the pro,-
motion
ro-motion of various events.
A new element has been
added to Vachon's support
of cross country skiing.
This is the Vachon Team,
an elite team made up of
three of Canada's top
athletes: Pierre Harvey
and Jocelyn Vezina, from
Quebec and Richard Weber
of Gatineau, all ex -
members of the national
team.
Wearing the colours of
Vachon and associated
sponsors, these three
skiers will compete in a
series of national races and
will no doubt be a source of
motivation to members of
the National Team as well
as to any other skiers who
have a chance to compete
against them. The Vachon
Team will also take part in
some international races,
among them the Loppets

Bd . Of Trade Proposes
Consumer Protection Laws
The Provincial Govern-
ment should educate conabout programs
-
sumers
already exist to help
them settle disputes, says
The Board of Trade of
Metro Toronto. Increased
awareness, not a proposed
new "Consumer Com -
Board", is what is
needed to ensure con-
sumer's concerns are ad-
dressed, the board advises.
In a lengthy submission
responding to the Report of
the Legislative Review
Project on Consumer Pro-
tection and Business Prac-
tices, the board says new
systems proposed to aid
consumers would be un-
necessarily costly for tax-
payers.
"'Ile real issue is con-
sumer rights and the con-
sumer's awarness of those
rights," says John Dean,
Chairman of the board's
Legislation Committee.
-,The public should be bet-
ter unformed about avenues
of recourse already
available to them. That,
plus a revamped Small
Claims Court, sup-
plemented by the Better
Business Bureaux, is what
is required to answer con-
sumers' concerns. "
Small Claims Court pro-
cedures should be
streamlined to improve ef-
ficiency and accessability
for consumers. Further,
the Canadian Council of
Better Business Bureaux
should be allocated addi-
tional public funds to pro-
vide consumer education
and mediation services,
suggests the board, rather
than the Ministry of Con-
sumer and Commercial
Relations increasing its in-
volvement in mediation.
The board also expressed
concern that some of the
PVVIAMS prod "am
adversarial in nature and
will create a rift between
business and the
consumer." Says Dean,
"We propose a more con-
ciliatory
oo-ciliatory approach that
considers the rights and
responsibilities of both
business and consumers.
From a business perspec-
tive, the vast majority of
businesses operate in a
scrupulous manner. When
a problem with a dishonest
operation crops up, the
business community is
anxious to have it cleared
UP-,.
Among speck recom-
mendations made by the
board:
Establish a consumer in-
formation telephone line;
incorporate consumer's
rights education into life -
skills classes taught in
schools; coordinate educa-
tion efforts with the
Ministry of Industry, Trade
and Technology.
A Consumer Rights
Legal Aid Clinic should not
be created as the Ontario
Legal Aid Plan already
provides legal services for
those unable to pay. Any
government body
established to intercede in
consumer commercial
disputes should be geared
toward conciliation, not
litigation, along the lines of
an ombudsman's office.
The publication of orders
or convictions against
businesses should not be
authorized. Often a
business or its employee
has wronged a customer
unintentionally, and it
would be unreasonable to
put the name of the com-
pany on what would
amount to a blacklist.
Businesses should not be
expected to post signs that
detail consumer protection
legislation. Instead, they
should be asked to display
information pamphlets
provided by the Ministry
outlining consumers'
rights.
A Consumer's lien should
not be establsihed for those
consumers who have pre-
paid for goods and services
and lose money as a result
of dealing with a business
that becomes insolvent. By
defuution there are not
enough assets in the estate
of an insolvent business to
satisfy all claims, and the
introduction of a
consumer's lien would
prefer a small class at the
cost of further losses by re-
maining creditors. Ap-
plication of the proposed
consumers lien could result
m different treatment of
similar claims by in-
dividual consumers
against a single business.
The result would be incon-
sistent with fundamental
principles of bankruptcy

News • It Pays!
law.
The board cannot sup-
port
upport a Consumer Com-
plaints Board that would
not allow legal representa-
tion for either the con-
sumer or the business in-
volved, as an alternative to
litigation before Small
Claims Court. The Ontario
Government should not
support a system that does
not allow the right to
counsel, as guaranteed in
the Canadian Charter of
Rights and Freedoms, The
Board feels.
Warranties take on the
characteristics of a
guarantee when applied to
services, and while the con-
sumer should have some
redress when professional
advice is followed and pro-
ves to be very incorrect,
misleading or poorly bas-
ed, The Board warns this is
a difficult area in which to
establish parameters.
The Board of Trade of
Metro Toronto is the
largest board chamber of
commerce in North
America, with over 15,500
members. Copies of The
Board's response to pro --
posed consumer protection
and business practices
legislation are available on
request.

Sinfully Easy Ribs
if you thought succulent country -style pork spareribs were
only for a summer barbecue, you're to for a delicious surprise.
"Devilicious Meaty Ribs" have a Southwestern flavour that
will heat up virtually any chilly evening.
Created by the home economists at the Kikkoman Kitchens,
these ribs have an invitingly spicy flavour and are extremely
easy to prepare. A short, but carefully chosen, list of ingre-
dients and slow cooking are the secret.
And, you may be surprised that a crucial ingredient is bottled
teriyaki haste and glaze. Made from naturally brewed soy
sauce, brown sugar, garlic, onion and other select seasonings,
it has a delicately sweet yet slightly tangy taste. It's a perfect
time-saver for today's busy cooks and it has an ideal con-
sistency for easy basting.
For the " devilicious" basting sauceuse add a splash of tart
vinegar, a healthy sprinkling of spicy Vet crushed red pepper
and slivers of delightfully pungent ginger to the teriyaki baste
and glaze. Then, simply baste the ribs and bake until tender.

4 lbs (2 kg) country -style pork spareribs
Combine teriyaki baste and glaze, vinegar, ginger and red
pepper. Place ribs in large shallow foil -lined baking pan, meaty
side up. Brush fibs thoroughly with glaze mixture. Cover pan
tightly with additional foil. Bake ribs in 350°F(180°C) oven
30 min. Uncover pan: drain off excess fat. Brush ribs with glaze
mixture. Cover and continue baking 45 min. Discard foil and
brush ribs with remaining glaze. Return to oven: bake 15 min
longer or until ribs are tender. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
