The opening on Wed.
Nov. 15 of McGinnis Ian -
ding Restaurant in the new
Pickering Home & Design
Centre (N.E. corner. Brock

signalled the arrival of the
new type of enbvprenew
Pickering is attracting
with its business growth.
Bob Piser. the 35 year old
proprietor of McGinnis
Landing said, "rve been
wanting to get into my own
business for several years
and have always been at-
tracted to the restaurant
"The combination of
Piclkerir4rs growth and the
need for a fine, casual dia-
ing along
with a proven franchise in
McGinnis seems to be
unbeatable!" be added
Though Pizer comes
from a computer and
marketing background and
not the restaurant field,
this seems to be more the
norm than the exception in
the franchise business. "I
know that I have the ex-
perience to make a
business successful - train-
ing in management and
motivation with marketing
and business skills along
with a positive attitude and

Council
Wants New
Directors
by Bob Watson
Pickering Town Council
held its inaugural meeting
on Monday evening in front
of a packed council
chamber. Each member of
council gave a speech and
it was clear that this new
council intends to slow
down development of hous-
ing.
Ward 2 Regional Coun-
cillor Doug Dickerson said
traffic problems were at a
crisis and he hoped council

tracting new industry, cor-

rather than "mass home
building"
Councillor Dickerson em-
phasized "leadership" as
the key to achieving suc-
cess during this new coun-
cil's term of office.
Ward 3 Councillor
Beverley Morgan said she
wasn't a "politician but
just a peopletician" and
drew laughter when she ad-
ded: "and I'm the only
woman on the block".
Ward 1 Councillor
Maurice Brenner said he
wanted to see the woodlots
saved and a Pickering
cultural centre built.
Mayor Wayne Arthurs
emphasized that the coun-
cil had been entrusted with
a responsibility - to
preserve the heritage of the
community and plan the
future. He emphasized the
necessary coordination of
council and its staff to
achieve results for the
community.
Father Watson of St.
Martin's Anglican Church,
gave the prayers and
benediction at the meeting.
Afterwards evervone
gathered at the Pickering
Recreation Complex for
food, drinks and conversa-
tion.

for you and us
A UI win-win
BY Ann M. Smith
In an election dominated
almost exclusively by debate
over free trade, it was refreshing
to see at least one announce-
ment that really meant some-
thing to someone. Without
much fanfare or hoopla, the
Tories sent out a statement to
the press saying that premiums
on unemployment insurance
would be slashed by 17 per cent
and benefits would be raised to
a maximum of $363 a week
effective Jan. I, 1989.
Although the good news on
the unemployment insurance
front came in the latter stages of
the campaign. both employers
and employees have something
to cheer about after the Ivo.. 21
election. For employees (who
M proportionately less than
employers), the weekly pre-
miums will drop to 51.95 from
$2.35 per 5100 of insurable earn-
ings while the contributions of
employers will drop t 52.73
from S3.29 per $100 of ensured
earnings. And for unemp"ed
workers, the maximum weekly
benefits available under UI will
be $24 above the current maxi-
mum of $339.
Then Minister of Employ -
merit and Im % rayon, Barbara
McDougall, also announced
that the stational un employ -
m. insurance furl will show a
surplus of $422 -million at the
end of 1988 despite the chaven.
This marks a massive reduction
in the cumulative defiat in the
UI account which stood at
$4.5 -billion at the end of 1984.
Sound too good to be true?
Four years ago the answer
would have been "yes". Cana-
dians, however, have grudgingly
learned to accept the downside
of this enormously expensive—
and often abused—social pro-
gram. John Bullock, president
of the Canadian Federation of
Independent Business, says the
upcoming changes will be par-
ticularl} well received by the
small and medium-sized busi-
ness community. Entreprerseurs,
he says, have traditionally been
the hardest hit by this program.
"As a result of the jobs being
created by small and medium-
sized firms, the government has
been able to wipe out one of the
most onerous debts in exis-
tence," Bulloch said.
"It is only reasonable that
the federal government com-
pensate small business for its
contributions to the economy."
CFIB estimates that for
employers, the revamped UI
system will translate into an
approximately- 5100 per year,
per employee savings. As a
result, each worker earning, for
viamphe- 515.000 per year will
save the employer 5112; four
workers, $448 per year, and 10
workers, 51,120.
Regardless of who or where
this announcement came from,
all Canadians should be relieved
to set some progress all long. lam
bang made in this daection. For
years now, the costs associated
with funding the unenmploy-
saeat insurance system in this
country have been exorbitant—
most recently to the tune of
S11 -billion. Therefore, focusing
on the UI deficit makes sense:
small business. after all, which
shoulders a disproportionate
share of the overall payrod tax
burden has made it dear that
relief is desperately needed. Add
to that the re hwed payments by
employees and the increased
benefits for unemployed work-
ers and it seems that Canad iam
finally had a winner.
It's too bad that one of the
very few win-win scenarios in
this election was somehow loot
in the battle for the hearts and
minds of Cans. But for
small business—the main
engine of job creation in this
country—the U1 turnaround
came not a minute too soon.

Grant Awarded To Housing Group
Wilmar Heights Senior Centre of Scarborough has been
awarded a $1,000 development grant from the Province of
Ontario. The grant will be used to help offset the costs of in-
corporating a non profit housing organization and prepar-
ing an initial submission to the government under a federal
provincial non profit housing program.
The program, administered by the Ontario Ministry of
Housing, permits municipal non profit, private non profit
and co-operative non profit groups to build rental housing
for people with low to moderate incomes.

Bob's Notes
................:.............•------::tib:::::::::=::::::� :.�
Retirement Planning
Ontario has launched a public awareness campaign to ew
courage early retirement planning. The theme is "Plan
Now for the Best of Your Life". The government is uLSUg
posters, brodxues and a province Wide media campaigns to
turn public attention toward the importance of planning.
The Ontario Ministry of Tourism and Recreation has
developed a comprehensive retirement planning model
suitable for use by municipal recreation depar buents, cotn-
munnty groups, businesses. industries and continuing
education students. The worting manual for the model is
called "Rietirernent Planning for Small Cemmu ni ies".
The ministry has also provided training to retirement
plaiting counsellors in communities and in industry. It has
developed workshops and resource materials to improve
the quality of retirement years. Ministry -developed
publications such as "Options: A Handbook of Retirement
Information and Fhtercfs and "It's Up To You" have
proven tlternselves popular aids to retirement planning.
"We consider the age of 40 an ideal time to begin retire-
mlent planning," said Ontario Minister of Tourism and
Recreation Hugh P. O'Neil. "Planning is beWW at any age,
but an early start produces better results." As well as pro
motiag the concept of retirement planning. the public cam-
paign will highlight the fad that the province is equipped to
provide support to grasps and intlividuals who take the
message to heart.
The Ministry of Tourism and Recreation views
retirement -planning assistance as part of its responsibility
to ensure Ontanians of all ages have access to recreational
opportunities appropriate to their steeds, interests and
abilities, prior to and after retirement.
"Retirement planning results in greater independence,
autonomy and satisfaction for the older adult," Mr. O'Neil
said. "That's an important message we want to get out.
Mother is that the Ontano Ministry of Tourism and
Recreation can provide resource material, expertise and
experience to help all our citizens with the important task of
retirement or lifestyle planning."

planning program in our community, call 965.5%5.
Lip Service To Environment?
The Peterson government is all talk and no action when it
comes to cleaning up the environment, Andy Brandt, leader
of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party, said after
liberal members of the Ontario Legjslature voted against
two separate initiatives m the environment.
Brandt says liberal members of the Legislature voted
down a proposal to set up a $30 million environmental clean
up fund, even though such a SuperFurd was promised by
Premier David Peterson during the 1965 election campaign.
The liberals also defeated a bfll, introduced by P.C. en-
vironment critic Margaret Marland, M.P.P. ( Mississauga
South), which would make recycling mandatory in all On-
tario municipalities. While many of Ontario's existing land-
fill sites are nearing capacity, less than two percent of our
garbage is being recycled, says Brandt.

Are we being picayune?
We think and hope not; we
are simply trying to convey
the measure of the produc-
tion's disappointment.
We understood, too, that
we were to see some tango
flavoured with salsa. If it
was there, we missed it.
Fact is we might have
missed the entire point of
the show. Perhaps there is
more to Desire Dancing

preciate. Certainly, we
would not try to dissuade
one from attending. Taken
with an open and easy mind
it's an agreeable way to

Still, we have this nagg-

ON SCREEN :
Tequila Sunrise. accor-
ding to Sardi's Bar Guide
(Ballantine) to be reviewed
in a lata column. is a drink
that was popular in the
' Ms. Its ingredients are
golden tequila, orange
juice and grenadine -
Tequila Sunrise is also
the title of a Warner
Brothers recent release. It
has little if any connection
with the story and, in fact,
as a title, it makes about as
much sense as the motion
picture itself.
It stars Kurt Russell as
an L.A. drug cop, Med Gib-
son as a drug dealer trying
to stop and Michelle Pfeif-
fer who has dewy eyes and
a great pair of knockers.
Do not ask urs to explain
the hackneyed plot. IA it
suffice that four decades
ago. Warners would likely
have cast Pat O'Brien,
Jimmy Cagney and Anne
Sheridan or maybe Ida
Lupmo.
Ordinarily your scribe
can be tolerant of what we
perceive as a bad movie.
After all, there is no such
thing as a universal taste
and, one presumes, there
are many who will find en-
joyment in Tequila Sunrise
the movie that is.
That's what has us exor-
cised. In T. Q., the drug
dealers are portayed as
more or less nice guys just
satisfying a public need
and the police as oppor-
tunistic dimwits.
Drug dealers are scuta
and should never be por-
trayed as anything else.
Yes, we know that we're
perilously close to forcing
our views on others but we
make no apology.
Anyway, Tequila Sunrise
is a pretty awful movie.
You won't be missing much
if the crash of Yuletide
prevents you from seeing
it.

ordinator of English Neil
Graham, English
Laugnuage Resource Per-
son Les Parsons, and
storyteller, Helen Car-
michael Porter.
The party was the final
event of the Pearson
students' story-
telling story -writing unit.
On this occasion the boots
written by the students
were "launched" and
books chosen on a field trip
to the children's bookstore
were dedicated to the Pear-
son library.
Among the highlights of
the morning's festivities
was the presentation of a
skit adapted from the
children's book written by
student Aker Jennings.
Thanks to everyone
whose hard work, en-
thusiasm and generosity
made the project a sucess.
Drama Excursion
by NEcker
Nineteen Grade 11
drama students, accom-
pamedby thew .
travelled to the Royal Alex-
andra Theatre recently to
view a production of `[the
Nerd", a comedy by Larry
Shue. Part of the atbvxtion
of the production was that
the romantic lead was
played by Gary Burgho[f of
M.A.S.H. fame.
The students commented
on the beauty of the elegant
old theatre, and many of
them were astonished that
the second balcony seemed
so high. Despite their con-
cerns, no one tumbled out
of their seats, and a good
many laughs were had at
the antics of the characters
on stage.
The driving rain
prevented us from waiting
at the stage door for
autographs, but despite
that small disappointment
the group looks forward to
another outing very soon.
Stage Band
The Pearson Stage Band,
and their director Peggy
Matthys certainly have the
holiday spirit. Instead of
thinking only of themselves
during this busy season,
they have been busy plann-
ing a series of concerts to
benefit those less fortunate
than themselves. One of the
organizers, Kristin Tole,
works at the Hugh Mac-
Millan Medical Centre,
formerly the Ontario Crip-
pled Children's Centre, and
the group decided to direct
their fundraising there.
Kristin and Tom Lam -
bier, with the support of the
rest of the band have
organized a series of
benefit concerts. Last
Saturday they played at
Cedarbrae Mall and raised
over $300. They will per-
form at Malvern Town Cen-
tre on Thurs. Dec. 8 from
6:30 to 8 p.m. and again at
Cedarbrae Mall on Sat.
Dec. 10th. Come out and
show your support for some
young people who care
about others.
Christmas Dance
The last Pearson event
for the 1988 term is the
Christmas Dance which is
taking place on Fri. Dec.
9th. This dance has become
a tradition at Pearson and
is the most talked about
dance of the year. Tickets
are going quickly so buy
your now and avoid long
last minute line-ups.
Trip to Quebec
Any students interested
In travelling to Quebec City
in May should pick up an
application form from Mr.
Caruana in Room 241. But
hurry, there are only ten
spots available.

Miranda Pinto, a

ed in services to ethmc peo-

experiences of this sort
shatter both self-esteem
and dignity of thaw seek-
ing refuge in Canada, while
erodLog any vision they
may have had that Canada
was both a safe haven and
an opportunity to become
self-sufficient.
Faed Henry, chairman of

encouraged organizations

The visiting students
spoke of the many
similarities and dif-
ferences between the
school systems in their own
areas and the school
System in Ontario. One
such student was from a
secondary school of only
150 students and found our
schools to be very large,
while another came from a
school of over 3,000
students and found our
schools to be very small.
'Most came from schools
where a shorter school day

were in effect. The Durham
students expressed their
enthusiasm for the ex-
change program and told of
the strong friendships they
had built with the visiting

Ontario To Review Education for Hearing -Impaired
sbwk4 Ms.
Education Minster Chris Ward has ordered the im-
mediate start-up of a comprehensive review of educational
programs for bearing -impaired students. This review
covers the three schools operated by the Ministry in Milton,
London and Belleville, as well as a representative sample
of English and French language programs offered by in-
dividual public and separate school boards.
The Minister announced that the review would be con-
ducted
oo-ducted in two phases. In the first phase, an internal review
committee of educators of the deaf, including representa-
tion from boards and the Ministry's provincial schools, will
evaluate existing programs. The committee's wont will in-
volve staff, students, parents and local community groups.
To examine educational opportunities for the deaf at the
Post secondary level, the Minister of Colleges and Univer-
sities will also take part in this review. Mr. Ward said that
Phase One is expected to be completed by March, 1988.
In the second phase an external, independent review will
be conducted by educators and persons with expertise to
the field of deaf education but not employed in the jLisdic-
tions udder review. The external review team will study
and validate the work of the internal review committee and
Consider other matters if necessary.
"The external group," Mr. Ward said, ..will observe the
programs reviewed, formulate conclusions and, in conjunc-
tion With the interoW committee, provide a filial report of
its findings by next year."
To assist the internal and external reviews, the Minister
announced the creation of an advisory group comprised of
representatives from organizations within the deaf and
deaf education communities. The advisory group will pro-
vide ideas and inforinaation to the teams throughout the
review process.
"It's my intention to use the findings for a single cohesive
purpose - to improve deaf education in Ontario and main-
tain our leadership in providing the best possible facilities
and programs for hearing impaired children,,, Mr. Ward
said.

Bill Waff's Worlds cownwd from Page t
Christmas there would be
Christmas With The
California Raisins (A & M) .
It's a good, good album for
this time of the year.
All the popular
favourites are here In-
cluding Santa Claus is
Coming To Town, Winter
Wonderland, Frosty,
Rudolph and, of course,
White Christmas. It's a
joyous thing and a welcome
change from some of the
cloying sentimentality that
can prevail right about
now.
The problem with The
A-StringslHome For
Christmas (WEA) is that
the production lacks a
direction.
Clearly, it's a Christmas
album and clearly features
the six artists who bill
themselves as the
A -Strings augmented by a
full string section.
On balance it should be a
pleasnt replaying of
Christmas favourites in a
sweet manner. One side of
the cassette features the
popular songs of the Season
and the other, is given over
to the carols.
The AStrings, however,
possibly to demonstrate
versatility, do not ap-
proach any two numbers in
the same way. Indeed, the
musical approach
sometimes changes in the
same song.
Jingle Bells, for exam-
ple, starts out rather like
the Golden Strings of
Frank DeVol. Then. in vir-
tual mid-cbor s, blue grass
pickin' creeps in. The
Pickin' is good - extremely
so - but intrtaive over
smooth strings.
It's a good enough offer-
ing and we have enjoyed it
but have to admit to a
thought that it might have
been so much better with
more attack and less
embellishment.

GRAPHIC ARTS
We commend to your at-
tention an exhibition at the
Del Bello Gallery (363
Queen, W) running to Dec.
30th.
Over 2000 artists from 60
countries are represented
in what is the largest show
of its kind in North
America. None of the
pieces, which include
sculpture, paintings, print-
making, works on ivory
etc., are any larger than
3"M"!
Yes, this is an exhibition
of miniature art and, at the
risk of being Phillistinistic,
we would point out that the
prices range from $25
through $2500 with the
average cost around $150.
What was that you were
saying about difficulty in
securing a Christmas pre-
sent for that special per-

Even if you're not in a

OPERA NEWS:
On our return from a re-
cent vacation, word was
awaiting of a successor to
LAB Mansouri as General
Director of the Canadian
Opera may.
The new G. M., who takes
up his duties in January, is
Brian Dickie. Should the
name be familiar, be
reminded that Mr. Dickie
was the General Ad-
ministrator of the
Glyndebourne Festival
Opera -
He is obviously well
qualified for his new posi-
tion and yet we fed sym-
pathy for him. Following

Check for trees, rocks and
other hazards that you
should be an the lookout
for. These include thin ice,
uneven surfaces, and rocks
or sticks protruding
through the ice.
Even with these and
other precautions, ac-
cidents still happen. This
winter, be prepared to help
when someone does suffer
a fracture or sprain.
Pain, tenderness and
swelling are signs of a

Weeding. A shoe, skate or
ski boot can be used as a
splint if there are no
Weeding injuries.
If the victim must move,
secure the limb with ban-
dages over a padded splint.
A pillow. blanket or ez1 -
cWthing will work. When
the fractured limb has been
immobilized in a splint,
raise and support it to
reduce bleeding and swell-
ing. Remember to heck
circulation of the limb to
ensure bandages are not
too tight, loosen if
necessary. All fractures or
sprains should receive
medical attention.
A St. John Ambulance
first aid program will teach
you how to recognize and
treat sprains and frac-
tures, along with other first
aid skills. Before your next
skating party or ski
weekend, why not be
prepared for unexpected
injuries by tailing a fust
aid course.

Your safe choice in fog and wet snow
Heading for an early
morning appointment,
you top a rise and start down
a familiar hill into a fog
patch. It keeps getting thick-
er, so thick you can barely
see the hood of the car. You
come up behind a truck that
seems to be crawling and
you get impatient. You peer
through the most and decide
you know this stretch of toad
and you can't see any oncom-
ing headlights. You turn on
your high beams to Mumi-
nate the toad and pull out
to pass. out of nowhere a
shadowy fonts kxxns in your
path. You hit the brake and
the form at exactly the same
moment.
Unexpected thaws during
the winter often result in fog
patches on Canadian highways
and the tendency for drivers is
to try shining their high -beam
headlights through the patches.
Ikon't. The light from high-
beatns hounces off the drops
of ttxoisture which cause the
fog and throw• the glut back
into your eves.
t'se flog lights, if you have
them, or your low beams. Thr
most important thing to rernem-
her when driving in fog is to
drive with caution. Never try
to pass another car in fog, even
if it seems clear enough. You
may he just on the verge of a
heavy patch that obscures on-
coming traffic. Or, you may
encounter a driverwho ho is driv-
ing without headlights.
Even if your low -beam
headlights don't throw- much
illumination in front ofvou. use
them amway. They make it eas-
ier for other cars to detect yew.
If you come up behind a slower
moving car, adjust }your speed
and be patient. It's often easier
for vo u to see while following
another vehicle because its
movement displaces the fog.
1 Tnexpected thaws can also
cause slush and wct ice patches
that make driving hazardous.
The closer ice is to freezing,
the more slippers- it will be.
Temperatures just above freez-
ing create a thin film of water
on ice patches making them
even more dangerous.
The do-cper the water. the
more difficult it is for you to
stay firmly on the road. The
lighter your vehicle and the
faster yew are travelling, the
more likely it is your car will
'hydroplane' or ride on top of
the water. Hydroplaning causes
you to lose traction and there-
fore lose control of your car.
New GO Train Buses From Union Stn.
Ontario Minister of
Transportation Ed Fulton,
has announced two new GO
Bus departures as an early
evening option for homhe-
bound commuters on the
Georgetown and atouffviIk
rail services. The new trips
start on Mon. Jan. 9th, 1949.
"Ibis is further evidence
of the government corrirnit-
ment to meet the growing
needs of commuters in the
Greater Toronto Area,"
said Hilton. "It is also the
first time GO Transit has
scheduled buses to compie-
meat trains, serving sta-
tions on aastittg rail ser-
vices-"
The buses will be an at-
tractive alternative for
Georgetown and Stouffville
line passengers who need
later departure times. We
predict the option will even
draw new riders to these
two services, Fulton added.
The '*train buses" will
leave from Toronto's Union
Station Monday through
FYiday, tentatively at 7:30
p.m. (19:30 hrs.) about two
hags later than the last
homebound train on each
service.
/ 108-120
One bun departure will
stop at Malton, Bramaks.
Brampton and Georgetown
stations, paralleling the
Georgetown rail service.
The other will stop at
Unionville, Markham and
Stouffville stations com-
pknvmtb* the Stouffville
service.

• make sure your tires have
ample tread depth and that
you keep them at the proper

•
slow down considerably

ecutive officer. The Royal
Bank of Canada presented
the United Way with a con-
tribution of $617.770.
These funds were raised
from the bank's
Employees' Charity Trust
campaign in the Metro
area and represent a whop-
ping
hopping 32 percent increase
over last year's effort.
"As proud as I am of the

Dr. Anne Golden, Pi esi-

Taylor's sentiments.
..The success of this

Housing Intensification
DemoawaWn Projects
In light of the board's

on housing intensification,
the Ontario Ministry of
Housing and The Toronto
Real Estate Board have re-
quested the board's
presence on a jury that will
oversee a series of housing
intensification demonstra-
tion projects aimed at
creating more affordable
homes, and dealing with
the plight of the first time

region.
Invitations to join the

Board Representatives
Meet With Author Peter C.
Newman and Chief of
Reserves
Members of The Military
Affairs Committee met on
Sept. 28 with distinguished
Canadian author Peter C.
Newman and Admiral Wal-
ly Fox -Decent, Canadian
Armed Forces Chief of
Reserves, to discuss means
by which greater participa-
tion by young Toronto
business executives in the
Armed Forces Reserves
might be encouraged.
The board strongly sup
ports initiatives to enlarge
the Reserve Forces; in its
October 1987 response to
Site Defense White Paper,
the board emphasized the
importance of revitalizing
the Reserve Forces as a
..cost-effective way to im-
prove Canada's defense
capability". Among the
proposals discussed at the
meeting were employment
support programs, raider
which employers would
agree to cover the dif-
ference between an
employee's regular pay
and army pay while on
temporary reserve leave.
The Radwanski Report:
Ontario study of the
Relevance of Education
and the Issue of Dropouts
The board's June 1988
submission to the Hon.
Chris Ward, Ontario
Minister of Education, in
response the Radwanski
Report, has been forward-
ed to a Select Committee
for review. In it, the board
supported the majority of
views presented while
disagreeing in part with
universally available early
childhood education (3-4
yrs) and the abolition of the
streaming system.
Results of recently held
public hearings and the
Select Committee's review
will be reported later this
fall.
Ontario Treasurer,
Superintendent of Pensions
Agree to Review Board
Proposals Concerning Tax-
ation of Excess Retirement
Benefit Arrangements
Responding to the
board's June 1988 submis-
sion, Ontario Treasurer
Robert Nixon and Ontario
Pension Superintendent
Robert Hawkes both
remarked that the Pension
Benefits Act already
covers almost any pension
plan arrangement design-
ed to provide benefits in ex-
cess of Revenue Canada
pension maximums,
although the board sought
an exemption for such ar-
rangements from the Act.
However, Mr. Nixon
acknowledged that certain
provisions of the draft In-
come Tax Act may prevent
a plan from complying with
Pension Benefits AM re-
quirements, and that these
should be reviewed with
The Board's recommenda-
tions in mind. In his letter,
Mr. Hawkes agreed that
further review was also
necessary, and proposed to
discuss it with other Cana-
dian pension jurisdictions
prior to malting any recom-
mendations.
Anticipating that the ex-
cess benefits issue might
be of interest to other
jurisdictions in Canada, the
board wrote to the Finance
Ministers of the other nine
provinces to advise them of
the issue; supportive
responses were received
from the Finance Ministers
of B.C., Quebec, Alberta,
Saskatchewan and New
Brunswick.

Report

MPP Durflam West
Senior Citizens' Affairs
The increase in the member of elderly citizens is creating
a new generation of issues which will have profound effects
upon provincial services and government priorities.
Recognizing this, Ontario's liberal Government was the
first provincial government in Canada to appoint a Minister
Responsible for Senior Citizens' Affairs. In the same spirit
expressed by this move, the Ontario Government continues
its commitment to the almost one million senior citizens in
this province.
The Hon. Mavis Wilson, Wmister for Senior Citizens' Af-
fairs, recently tabled in the legislature the 14th Annual
Report of the Ontario Advisory Council on Senior Citizens.
The council appointed three sub -committees to study
seniors in the home, seniors in the community, and seniors
and their finances. These categories allowed the sub -
Committees to study matters within their respective fields
and relay information, through the minister, to the ap-
propriate government ministries.
During the caning year, the council will be examining at-
titudes toward aging in Ontario's multicultural environ-
ment. Their efforts will help to "identify those issues that
must be addressed if all our senior citizens, whatever their
heritage, are to live full and rewarding lives," Mrs. Wilson
said.
NORAH'S !VOTES:
I congratulate the students and staff of the the Durham
Board of Education for their recycling efforts. It was my
pleasure to attend the November 17th recycling program
launch at Woodlands Centennial School in Pickering I was
thrilled to see the tremendous level of enthusiasms on the
part of the students of all grades.
Ontario Energy Nbuster Robert Wong has announced a
new provincial program aimed at encouraging greater
municipal imdvemhent in energy conservation -
Mr. Wong says the $3 million energy efficiency program
will "help the province's municipalities to contiraw their in-
volvement in energy efficiency and reduce tbnr energy
costs by l ndlicins of dollars every year.'.
The Energy Munster told the Legislature that beginning
in January. the Munwipal Buildings Energy Efficiency
Program will offer grants to improve the energy efficiency
of municipal buddirngs and encourage energy effX lent
operating practices.
—Through its r ew programs, the government hopes to
help create the n- yr ket forces that steer society away from
ritally h responsible use of energy,' Mr. Wong
said.
He pointed out that the govermment recognizes that
energy efficiency is extremely important in relation to
competitiveness.
Most other developed countries are far more efficient
than we are - in fact. we lag behind our main competitors,
including France, Japan, Italy, West Germany, Brazil, the
United Kingdom and the United States,.. Mr. Wong said.
A recently released report on world resources ranked
Canada as the most energy intensive country in the world
Mr. Wong said striving to make more efficient use of our
energy resources is a shared responsibility.
"Governments at all levels must set the example that all
sectors will ultimately have to follow. And I know or ef-
forts will pay off. A 20 percent improvement in energy eM
cieicy across the board could result in savings of between
$3 billion and $4 billion on our energy bill every year,.. he
said.
The new program, designed specifically to assist smaller
municipalities, follows the government's successful
Municipal Oil Conversion and Energy Conservation Pro-
gram, under which over 400 municipalities implemented
more than 1,400 energy-saving projects.
..Under the new program, municipalities with popula-
tions under 10,000 will be eligible to receive capital
assistance for up to 75 percent of the cost of retrofitting
buriklings. Those with populations of between 10,000 and
50,000 can qualify for 50 percent assistance,". Mr. Wong
said.
He added that by decreasing demand and using energy
more effectively, through conservation and efficiency im-
provements, the security of supply can be improved and the
burden on the environment lessened.
"Every effort to safeguard our environment must rank
high on our list of public priorities,,, Mr. Wong said.
NORAH'S :VOTES:
I would like to thank the kinsmen Club of Pickering and
the lions Club of Ajax for their invitations to participate in
the recent Santa Claus parades in the two communities.
Their volunteer work certainly pays off when you see the
children's shining faces eagerly anticipating Santa. Special
thanks go to Al Duce, who drove the car I used in the Picker-
ing parade and to Brenda Brett, the driver of my car in the
Ajax parade.
