Off To
Switzerland
On Garbage
by Gay Abbate
Three regional politi-
cians are going to
Switzerland to learn about
recycling and how to get
rid of garbage.
Durham Regional Coun-
cillors last weep voted to
spend more than $25,000 to
send five people to a con-
ference in Europe. At the
same time they were be-
moaning the necessity for
this year's 19% tax in-
crease and its impact on
the poor taxpayer's hard
hit pocketbook, and lamen-
ting how the province is
partly responsible for not
giving the region enough
money to provide the ser-
vices the public wants. Two
senior staff will also be go -
mg on the trip.
The Waste Minimization
sad Clean Technology Coo-
ference runs from May 29th
to June 1st and includes
tours of cities in Germany,
Austria and Switzerland.
Councillors were mixed
about how many should go
to the conference but when
the vote was taken the ma-
jority opted to send five
people.
Oshawa Councillor Jim
Potticary argued it was un -
portant to send staff to the
conference because
Durham needs to pick up
the same information as
Metro Toronto in order to
stand up to it.
Oshawa Councillor David
Conway said he doubted
politicians would get
anything out of the
technical conference. Whit-
by's Joe Drumm said the
trip would be perceived by
the public as a jaunt to
Europe on the public
trough.
Learning Disabiides

The Learning
Disabilities Association of
Ontario, Oshawa Chapter
will hold its regular mon-
thly meeting on Thurs.
May 25th at 7:30 p.m. at the
Whitby Public Library,
Jackie McBlaine, oc-
cupational therapist at the

will speak on "Sensory in-
tergration".

Bramalea
Plants
More Trees
In late January, many
Pickering residents were
upset when Bramalea
limited, upon the town's
request, removed an even
line of 25 mature willow
trees along Whites Road.
Previously, Bramalea
Limited has worked with
the town and a landscape
architect in an attempt to
preserve the trees but they
were found to be unhealthy
and diseased.
Pickering Parks and
Recreation spokesman
Everett Buntsma told con-
cerned
oo-cerned residents that the
"willows were in a serious
state of decline" and that
some trees were "rotten in
the centre and were losing
As a goodwill gesture,
Brama es limited has in-
itiated a transpiatin8 plan
of 100 mature trees to
replace the diseased
willows and will carry out a
year-long maintenance
program (which includes
special fertilizer and corts-
tant monitoring) to ensure
the success rate of the
trees.
These trees were to be
cleared and destroyed
from another property
Bramalea was servicing,
and Bramalea Limited
recognized this as a unique
opportunity to restore
Whites Road back to its
treelined splendour.
Fortunately, the soil
from both areas is compati-
ble and the trees being
moved are currently grow-
ing in isolated areas, thus
allowing for easy access
and minimum damage to
the root structure.
Maureen McCauley,
Manager of Engineering
Services for Bramalea
Limited, said "We have
been able to salvage trees
that would most likely have
been destroyed. As well. we
have created a beautiful
streetscape along Whites
Road returning the
restored environment to
the community_..

Opinion

for you and us
Thanks Bob Nixon
by Bob Watson
The provincial budget handed down last week by Ontario
Treasurer, Bob Nixon, is admirable in its attempt to
balance the budget. But admiration stops at that point.
Mr. Nixon, a non-resident of Metro Toronto and district,
seems to believe that the 3 million folks in this area of the
province should have to pay extra because we need more
capital for roads, education and health. Apparently Mr.
Nixon hasn't figured out that it is the Metro Toronto area
which is generating most of the revenue he spends all over
Ontario!
Why should Metro folks pay more for a licence to drive a
car in Ontario than a person in Timmins? This is inequality
because a Timmins person could come to Toronto and use
all of its highways and not pay the costs'. Come on Bob Nix-
on - where is your logic?
The sharing of all commercial and industrial assessment
by both public and Catholic school boards sounds great for
equality. However, the act which united Upper and Lower
Canada did not allow for this and after millions have been
poured into new Catholic high schools to house the same
students who were housed in public high schools is surely a
waste of much money at a critical time.
The big error in judgment by Mr. Nixon is his attempt to
have some equality in the payment of health care costs.
Many people in Ontario have their health care (OHIP)
payments paid by their employer, who then puts that cost
into the price of his product or services and we all pay that
cost. Those in small business couldn't handle this extra cost
and paid their own. Now .lir. Nixon is going to put a 1% tax
on pavroll for small business which will create real pro-
blem for small businesses, who by the way, are the main
ingredient in economic prosperity.
We understand the treasurer's problem in financing On-
tario's big costs in health care, roads and education.
However, for years the gasoline taxes have been going into
the general budget and paying for everything including
health care.
We hope that this budget doesn't knock economics in the
Metro Toronto area dawn because the Ontario government
is mostly financed by this area.
Power Use Grows By %early Six Percent
Ontario's electricity demtind increased by 5.9 percent in
1988 over 1987, according to Ontario Hydro's preliminary
year end figures -
Total electricity sales in Ontario in 1988 were 134.4 million
megawatt -Muss, almost six percent more than the 126.5
million megawatt hours recorded the year before. On
average, provincial customers are using 860 megawatts of
electricity more each day. That is enough electricity to
serve a city the sae of Hamilton Mitch of this increase can
be attributed to growth in residential and commercial sec-
tors.
Ontario Hydro is working to curb the year over year in-
crease in electricity demtaM through various programs,
among them: promoting energy efficiency on fates, in
Mmes, and in business and industry: reducing electricity
use at costly peak demand times.
Wort has begun in numerous areas and the corporation
hopes to see results throughout the 1990s.
On Helping Waste
Dear Sir:
I like to think of myself as a law abiding citizen, but the
other day I felt inclined to take the law into my own hands.
..Stop the car." I said to my husband "and let me tell that
person what I think of her." He didn't stop but the discus-
sion on certain facets of what makes an orderly society has
continued ever since.
I can see the papers this individual scattered, floating m
the sidewalk in Kingston Rd., ( near Cliffctest Plaza) and
wondered who was going to pick them up. Foolish me for
wondering about the cost of collecting all the rubbish people
thoughtlessly scatter about. Foolish me for wondering if
our children are taught about such niceties as respect for
our public places - foolish me for wondering if we adults are
showing a decent example for them to follow.
Next time you drop a cigarette butt, or casually toss a
candy wrapper, remember that in the end you pay .. and
then we grumble about increased taxes.

Wilson's `goods' tax
a disservice
By Ann M Smith
If you're one of marry Cana-
dians feding out of sorts as a
result of the recent federal
budget. take heart: you're not
alone. Virtually no one, it
seems, was immune from the
all-out tax assault launched by
Fuumce Minister Michael Wil-
son and his government.
According to John Bulloch,
president of the Canadian Fed-
eration of Independent Busi-
ness, there are no winters from
this budget. For examplq as tax-
payers begin to grapple with the
immediate hard-core reality of
higher taxes, he says, the small
business community has been
given a reprieve of little more
than a year before it will face a
tax complexity of unprece-
dented proportions: the all-new
goods and services tax.
Bulloch is worried that the
advent of this new federal sales
tax will provide Ottawa with a
new and controversial numbey
generating machine worth liter-
ally billions of dollars each year.
Rather than tightening their
own belt, he says, the govern-
ment has opted to let Canadian
taxpayers shoulder the burden
of their deficit reduction respon-
sibilities. (Under Wilson's recent
budget, for example, taxpayers
will be responsible for approxi-
mately 75 per cent of the defi-
cit reduction costs. At the same
time, however, Ottawa will con-
tribute just 25 per cent in the
way of spending cuts.)
" CF1B ooncerns about
the gotxh and services tax are:
e that the paperburden
component of this new tax will
be a nightmare for all small
firms. If the exemptions pro -
Posed in Wilson's budget
remain intact. small business
owners (already swamped with
government red tape and paper -
burden) can expect to sink evert
further in the quick -sand. The
new two-tiered sales tax requi es
business to forward the differ-
ence between the tax levied on
sales minus the tax levied on
purchases. The compliance
costs, Bulloch says, will slam
retailers who lack the cash
registers to administer both a
federal and a retail sales tax sys-
tem e%pecially hard:
e that it will provide this and
future federal govemmenLs with
an ever-present money genem-
tor. As a source of extra m+enue,
the goods and services tax is
expected to provide the federal
government with an extra
S2.5 -billion in revenue for every
one per cent increase in the tax
rate. Bulloch likens this "togiv-

Two Pickering Units Hold First Place
Two units at the Pickenng muclear generating station
have placed first in world nuclear reactor rankings.
For operation during 1988, Unit 6 at Pickenng is tied for
first place with the U. S. nuclear reactor St. Lucie 2 in
Florida. Both units operated last year at loo percent of their
maximum electricity production capacity.
In lifetime performance. another Pickering tacit ranks
first. Unit 7 at Pickering has operated at 89.6 percent of its
maximum electricity capacity since it went into service in
1965.
Two hundred and seventy-two world reactors generating
500 megawatts or more were included in the rankings done
by Ontario Hydro. Except for Yugoslavian reactors, those
of the Soviet bloc are not part of the data.
ing away the keys to the candy
store"
that the new tax will have
a negative effect on the rate of
inflation. Some experts are
predicting a three per cent
increase in the Consumer Price
Index by 1991, the year the
goods and services tax is
introduced;
e that the tax will hurt our
tourist sector. Although benefits
will fall to manufacturers and
exporters, jobs will be lost in
the more labor-intensive service
sector;
e and that consumer pur-
chasing will also be hurt by the
implementation of this tax. The
impact of reduced consumer
spending is bound to be felt
in the overall health of the
economy.
If the finance minister's
recent proposals are any indi-
cation of what small business
can expect from the newly re-
elected Tory government, the
next four years could get down-
right nasty.

stories about Matt Helm
who is not so much a
private eye as a private ex-
ecutioner. Recently we
reviewed the first Matt
Helm. Now, we have at
hand his latest or at least
the latest that's come to
our attention. It's called
The Demolishers and one
has to think that Mr.
Hamilton has lost some of
his steam.
The story, about which
more later, is good enough
but the expository
passages of dialogue are
almost dull.
Dialogue is a legitimate
though lazy way of advanc-
ing a plot but it should bear
some resemblance to the
speech patterns of those 'in -
valved. Matt Helm most

Matt helm?
This time 'round. Helm is
out to avenge the death of
his son, his oldest son, at
the request of his (Heilm's )
estranged wife. "Kill

them." Kill them he does -
that's standard for a Matt

Lastly we have the fust
in another proposed series
about private eyes. This
time it's a cat -no
foolin'-named Manx Mc -
Catty and it's titled -again,
no foohn'-The Big Scratch.
It takes place in San
Francisco and deals with a
mob of pts kidnapping
female cats for sale
overseas, presumably to
cat houses.
It's amusing for a while
but eventually the tough
jargon and references to
cats becomes boring.
Good enough book but
even a cat lover such as
your reviewer couldn't
hack another.
Mmm, wonder if an
animated series might be
in the offing. After all, it's
been a while since

Upon This Rock The Life
of St. Pieter by Walter F.
Murphy (Ballantine) is a
difficult book upon which to
make L'arrnent. There's no
question that it's good and
very enjoyable; it's simply
that one is hard pressed to
know when fiction and fact
overlie one another.
The story of the Big
Fisherman is about as well
documented as that of any
biblical figure but Mr. Mur-
phy has taken the man well
beyond the troubles por-
trait of the fust Bishop of
Rome. He has taken him
and mase him the central
figure in dispute over the
divinity of Christ and
whether or not we should
be awaiting a physical
return.
Mr. Murphy would seem
to think that Christ has
always I'e[t1171ed, that He
has, in fact, never left us,
that those who believe have

Have we given some idea
of the problem facing an
honest reviewer in assess-

boost?
If so, we have no hesita-

the sheer pleasure of
reading it. Upon This Rock
will, we believe, occupy a
place with the earlier
novels of Lloyd C. Douglas.

of 24 Canadian instructors
to be honoured at an inter-
national conference in
May.
a mathematics
teacher at Centennial for
the past 23 years, will pick
up his award at the 11th An-
nual International Con-
ference on Teaching Ex-
cellence in Austin, Texas,
May 21-24,
Centennial president Bev
McCauley says, "We are
lucky to have such a
distinguished and excellent
teacher among us. For
Jack, inspired teaching is
the bottom line."
Spohn says, "I don't
know it all and I like to
learn alongside my
students. I recently
discovered that I was un-
familiar with some com-
puter applications my
engineering technology
students were taking. So I
joined my students, as a
student, in their class."
In 1987, Spohn was the
first Centennial teacher to
receive the college's
George Wicken Award for
Teaching Excellence. His
insights on motivating
students will form part of a
book published by the

Look Before You Leap Advice
The real estate market is
still inflated. Who knows
where it will all end?
"Real estate in the
Toronto and Southern On-
tario market is getting
more unpredictable every
day, says Lyn Miller and
Stan Futa, authors of the
Canadian best seller,
"Look Before You Leap, A
Common Sense curiae to
Buying Your Home".
According to Miller and
Futa `Buyers need all the
help they can get. Potential
home owners are so confus-
ed about the current hous-
ing market, that we have
written a special supple-
ment for our book."
The supplement contains
the essentials of how to
deal with the pace of real
estate in Toronto, and other
major areas in Southern
Ontario. It also outlines
alternative home buying
strategies.
"Look Before You Leap"
was written especially for
fust and second -time home
buyers. A Canadian best
seller, the book is user
friendly, giving readers the
basics of home buying, plus
outlining prospective pit-
falls.
"Especially in today's
fluctuating real estate
market, our book and sup-
plement are essential
guides for those people who
desperately want to own a
home and need advice,"
said Miller.

Board Wins Support
for Pension Reform
Proposals
A number of key recom-
mendations made by the
board to the Ontario
government concerning
pension reform have been
incorporated into a con-
sultation draft released on
March 3rd by the Ministry
of Financial Institutions.
Chief among the board's
recommendations adopted
in the consultation draft is
that members of defined
contribution plans should
be given a choice between a
fixed or indexed pension of
the same commuted value.
The draft also
acknowledged that defined
benefit plan members will
end up paying for their own
indexation, as the board
had advised. adopted the
board's suggested inflation
protection cap of 8% CPI:
and proposed that retroac-
tive inflation protection be
encouraged on a voluntary
basis only, through in-
ducements. Public input on
the consultation draft is
due within 60 days.
Contingent Fees in
Ontario
Consideration is being
given to the adoption of a
system that will peanut
contingent fees in Ontario.
Contingent fees allow a
lawyer to reader his profes-
sional services. in order to
obtain a judgment or settle-
ment for his client, in
return for a certain percenr
tage of the ultimate
Theboard is not en-
thusiastic about the adop-
tion in Ontario of a con-
tingent fee system.
However, if contingent fees
are to be allowed, the board
recommends that certain
controls and limitations be
imposed by the govern-
ment to curtail potential
abuses.
Further, the board
recommends that a
monitoring process be put
in place to measure the im-
pact of the change over a
period of time.
Board Meets with
Minister of State for
Transport
On Mar. 7th, members of
the board's Transportation
Committee met with The
Hon. Shirley Martin, PC,
MP, Federal Minister Of
State (Transport), to
discuss long range plans
for air travel in southern

The board reiterated its
position that more efficient

blem.

who have been meeting weekly at the Pickering East Shore
Community Centre will now have a new Recreation Facili-
ty.
The Provincial Government recently announced a
$228,333 New Facilities grant from the Ministry of Tourism
and Recreation.
A group of 10 seniors first started meeting in 1974, accor-
ding to John Neale, president of the South Pickering Seniors
Club. "Now we have 157 members and more are joining
everyday as the word spreads," Neale said.
-The people of Pickering and Council have been very sup-
portive of our efforts to raise money for the centre," said
Neale.
Personally. I am delighted to see this project come to
fruition. My involvement extends back to my days as a
municipal councillor when I helped kickstart the project.
The centre has a multi-purpose hall, kitchen, games
room, lounge and workshop. The centre will be open five
days a week and means the seniors can get together for
cards, bingo, darts, billiards. The workshop will be open for
crafts. The kitchen will be used to prepare light snacks.
Until now the seniors were meeting in the gymnasium of
the East Shore Community Centre. 12 noon to 3 p.m., week-
ly. They would have to set up their own tables and chairs for
card games.
The seniors first met in their new recreation on May 16,
and the official opening will be held next month, on June 22.
