What Lloyd Thomas Told
Good afternoon Honourable Members of Parliament,
Senators and visitors. My name is Lloyd Thomas, I am a
director of COP, which stands for the Coalition of Picker-
ing. Our group consists of representation from 23 resident
associations throughout Pickering, that accounts for
representation of over 90% of the Pickering residents, a
total of over 50,000 people.
We formed originally to give Pickering a strong voice
against the reopening of the Beare Landfill site and the
opening of a new landfill site in the Rouge Valley. We stood
with Save The Rouge, PACT, Scarborough Coalition and the
Hillside Community Association and opposed Metro. Prior
to that the people of Pickering fought against the reopening
of Brock South and against an extension to Brock West.
Fighting bad decisions is not new to the people of Pickering.
In the 1970s we amassed 10,000 people to fight the proposed
airport and here we are again, only now we have more peo-
ple, more experience but just as much determination.
The Coalition of Pickering is standing behind their Mayor
and the Council of Pickering, in opposition to any airport in
North Pickering.
Pickering already faces severe transportation problems
we are slowly grinding to a halt. Our subdivisions are clogg-
ed with cars trying to get out, traffic is backed up in our
hamlets, Highway No.2 and the 401 almost become a park-
ing lot in rush boor. The condition of the roads continue to
deteriorate but yet housing development continues to bring
more people into Pickering.
In 1975 one of the main reasons the airport was stopped

was because of the inadequacy of the roads. Fifteen years
later nothing has changed, it has only gotten worse.
Traffic going to an airport in North Pickering would have
to go through either Pickering or Markham, both areas are
too heavily congested- In the future we have the town of
Seaton to look forward to, a community of 90,000 people,
traffic will become a chaotic rughtnnam.
Nor have the services kept up with Pickering's growth
Cherrywood, a 100 year old hamlet, just above Finch, is
fighting for water, their wells are polluted with frescoes
and methane gas. Their promise of water for this summer
has just been put back to 1992 by Durham's Regional Coun-
cil. To move water even further north to an airport site is
literally a pipedream.
Pickering's strength comes from the fact that it is a blend
of both rural and city life. Each compliments the other, the
city people need a place to get away to and the rural people
need a place to shop and for recreation. Pickering council
has worked long and hard at developing a rural policy, an
airport would destroy rural Pickering and destroy that uni-
que Mend of life we have in Pickering.
It is ludicrous to even try and conceive of an airport in
North Pickering, the cost of roads and services would be
astronomical. The people of Pickering have had enough.
Pickering is not a viable solution. The Coalition of Picker-
ing will stand strong with the mayor and our people, whom
we represent, we will not support any type of airport in
Pickering. Thank you for your time.

Here And There
Where Are They?
It's funnv but in all the rush hours of downtown Toronto
where vans and delivery trucks park to unload their goods
in areas marked "No Stopping" and where taxis stop to
unload their passengers there is never a police officer pre-
sent to fine such offenders. In fact, on Dundas St. E. near
Logan Ave. a truck trailer was parked for quite a few days
in a "No Parking" zone. And we wonder why the homeward
flow of traffic gets tight?
Against Money For Politics
A poll recently taken reveals that 7 out of 10 Canadians
are against the use of union dues for anything other than
collective bargaining. A man in Northern Ontario has been
attempting for years to get the courts to rule that his union
dues not go to the new Democratic Party and he is slowly
getting the right answers. Surely the h'DP can raise its own
campaign money - just like the other political parties.
Those Bikes
With the weather getting nicer the number of bicycles us-
ing the streets is becoming a problem to motorists who
worry about how close they are to the human being on the
bike with some of our lanes of traffic narrower than others.
And those cyclists are still riding their bikes in
crosswalks and expecting motorists to treat them like
pedestrians instead of motorists. We have yet to see a police
officer giving a ticket to a cyclist wfio rides on the sidewalk
which is for pedestrians and not cyclists.
Surely for the safety of everyone, including cyclists and
pedestrians. the rules of the road should be applied to those
cyclists who insist on violating the rules of the road.
Ban Apt. Incinerators
A province -wide ban on the use of apartment building in-
cinerators went into effect at midnight on May 31st. There
are about 1,300 apartment buildings in Ontario using in-
cinerators for garbage disposal, half of them in Metro
Toronto.
Incinerator owners and operators are responsible for the
costs of converting from incineration to garbage compac-
tion or bulk storage• and pick up by private hatilers.
Apartment building incinerators are considered a health
concern because of the wide range of pollutants contained
in their emissions. Smoke, odors, flyash and soiled proper}
are also concerns. Few apartment incinerators have been
built in Ontario since the mid-1960s. consequently most are
outdated and inefficient.
Ministry testing of 11 apartment incinerators in 1986
found that emissions of total hydrocarbons exceeded En-
vironmental Protection Act standards in every case. Based
on previous testing at municipal garbage incinerators, the
ministry believes that dioxins and furans were present in
these emissions. Combustion efficiency was also determin-
ed to be unacceptable.
The nurustry has received an average of 50 complaints a
year from Metro Toronto residents concerned about the
operation of specific apartment incinerators.
In April. incinerators at two apartment buildings on
Gamble Ave. in East York were shut down after building
modifications were completed and a compacter was install-
ed. These incinerators had been the object of smoke and
odors complaints from nearby residents during the past
several years.
It is estimated that apartment incinerators burned
122.000 tonnes of garbage a year, 1.5 percent of the total an-
nual volume of garbage in the province. Some 54.000 tonnes
were from Metro Toronto, equal to six days of disposal at
:Metro's landfills.
Community Compensation
ontano Hydro paid more than $56 million to 600 Ontario
municipalities and taxing authorities in 1988. Payments
were made in lieu of taxes to municipalities and other
authorities where Hydro -owned property and buildings are
located.
The utility also paid $2.6 million in community impact
payments associated with the Bruce and Darlington
nuclear generating station sites. These payments are part
of agreements made with surrounding communities to
cushion the additional demand placed on municipal ser-
vices by the projects.
In addition to these payments, $95 million went toward
the cost of using Ontario's water for hydro -electric genera-
tion. Most of this went to the Ontario government.

Employment and Immigration Minister Barbara
McDougall has announced funding of $21,2'76 under the
Unemployment Insurance Section 25 Job Creation Program
to the Jewish Student Federation.
The funding will be used to hire three publicists who will

schools.
Wage Settlements
Federal Labour Minister Jean Corbeil has released
figures showing that wage increases resulting from major
collective bargaining settlements reached in the first
quarter of 1989 averaged 4.3 percent. This is the same as the
average increase recorded for all 1988 settlements.
Expanded Special Public Transit
Ontario Transportation Minister Ed Fulton has announc-
ed an expansion to the eligibility requirements for using
special public transit services.
"We have expanded the eligibility requirements to 'in-
clude
elude persons who are unable to walk 175 metres, the
average distance to public transit stops," said Fulton. "Of
course, the service will continue to be available to those
who are unable to board conventional transit."
The ministry has recently been allotted an additional $5.2
million towards its initiatives to improve transportation for
persons with disabilities.
$332.952 For Disadvantaged
Employment and Immigration Minister Barbara Mac-
Dougall has announced funding of $332,952 under the Cana-
dian Jobs Strategy to provide job training and develop life
skills for 36 severely employment disadvantaged persons.
The program is designed for learning disabled and the
developmentally disabled to operate a commercial food
service in order to prepare the participants for permanent
employment. The YMCA of Metropolitan Toronto is spon-
soring the project.
Browes Condemns Actions Of Chinese
Authorities
Pauline Browes, M.P. Scarborough Centre. has called on
the Chinese government to stop the brutal suppression of its
people and start re-buulding the progress it once made.
Browes participated in an emergency debate on the situa-
tion in China in the House of Commons last week. She joined
External Affairs Minister Joe Clark in condemning the
senseless killing of students by the Chinese Army. "China
once offered a bold example to the Communist World by
moving away from totalitarianism and responding to the
will of its people. In two bloody days that progress has been
crushed," she said.
Pauline Browes added: "To the thousands of Chinese
Canadians living in Scarborough, I express my condolences
to your fellow countrymen and my sincere hope that peace
and freedom will one day prevail throughout China."

Hydroelectric advantage
Ontario's spring freshet began in early April and Ontario
Hydro is operating its 67 hydro -electric generating stations
to take full advantage of the water flows.
Each winter. the stations' reservoirs are lowered to a
minimum level. ')ben, during snow melting and spring
rains, as much water as possible is collected and used to
produce electricity.
The stations and dams are operated carefully during this
time to avoid flooding and honour agreements with other
users of the rivers.
The province's hydro -electric stations produce 25 percent
of Ontario's electricity.

Criticizes Ottawa Over China
by Gay Abbate
Scarborough MP Jim
Karygiannis has criticized
the federal government for
failing Chinese studying in
Canada during the crisis in
China following the Beijing

dealing

the Scarborough Agincourt
MP told a press conference
last week.
Chinese students have
echoed his criticism. Ex-
ternal Affairs Minister Joe
Clark has indicated that Ot-
tawa will extend visas and
give work permits so none
of the 4,500 students in
Canada will have to return
to China if they do not want
to.

Karygiannis last we that
their families in Gina are
under house arrest after
they sent them pictures
showing them

More than 600 people

Karygiannis for help last
week during four informa-

held at the Scarborough

Dr.
What was supposed to be
a one day event became
four because of the large
demand. Most of them
wanted work permits,
visas extended or help with
getting relatives out of
China.
Karygiannis, who has
some 20,000 Chinese in his
riding, said he will turn the
information over to exter-
nal affairs and hopes to
have answers for the peo-
ple within two weeks.
He has asked the federal
government to put inter-
preters on its crisis hotline,
to allow students to work
while they study so they
can pay their own way and
to set up special informa-
tion centres in major cities
across the country to help
students.

The enduring popularity
of and indeed, love of Puc-
cini's la Boheme is solely
due to its music. The state-
ment is not as simplistic as
it might appear upon first
reading.
The ideal opera is an ar-
tistic amalgam of fine
music, good story line, em-
pathetic characterizations
and perhaps fine costumes
and sets. That is the ideal
opera and La Boheme falls
short of that measure on
several counts.
Its greatest shortcoming
lies with the two principals.
Rodofo is a wimp and his
love, Muni a simpering op-
portunist without the
honesty of Musetta, a self
acknowledged grisette.
Rodolfo's friend Marcello
is a rogue but an admitted
one and his other mates
Colline and Schaunard
have each a strength of
character far superior to
that of the hapless Rodolfo
and Mimi.
Yet, the opera endures
and is enjoyed as much on
repeated viewings as on
one's first exposure to it
and the reason is the
glorious music that raises
gooseflesh on the arms and
a lump in the throat.
In the final scene of the
current production by the
Canadian Opera Company
at The O'Keefe much weep-
ing was heard in the au-
dience. (As a man, ours
was of the silent variety.)
As Rodolfo, his character
notwithstanding, John
Fowler was most winning.
His tenor is pure and sweet
and almost holds its own
with the bass and baritones
of his companions. In duet
with soprano Muni, he is
just a little short of superb.
Baritone Theodore Baerg
is a robust Marcello and his
scenes with the mezzo
soprano Musetta played by

Linda Maguire were full of
the fire one should expect
from those of their
temperament. Allow us a
slight digression as we
once again comment upon
what we perceive as a
relative dearth of roles,
major roles for mezzos.
The late Gladys Swar-
thout would surely have
been enshrined as one of
the immortals had there
been more roles suitable
for her. We were quite
taken by Miss Maguire and
make so bold as to state
that the mantle of Miss
Swarthout need not be too
far in her future.
Bass David Pittsinger
was impressive as Collin
and we continue to enjoy
the work of young baritone
Patrick Timney. As
Schaunard he brought a
strength to the part unlike
any we have seen or heard
before. Well done Mr.
Tininey-
The central role, right or
wrong is that of Mimi and
in it we have discovered
what we believe to be a star
of first magnitude in the
person of Ruth Golden.
This is Miss Golden's fust
appearance with the C.O. C.
and our fervent wish is that
she will return many times.
Her voice is quite simply
enchanting to the most
literal of senses.
It is high, it is sweet, it is
charged with the emotion
that is demanded of the
character. We are not, we
hope, guilty of frivolity in
telling that capon driving
home in the rain we found
ourself humming
Chevalier's "Mimi, you
funny little good for
nothing Mimi ..."
The orchestra was super-
charged under the duec-
tion of Brno Rigacci. Our
only complaint is that on
occasion it seemed to us the
singers had to fight it but
that might have been a
fault of the sound mix.
Christopher Mattaliano
directed with precision and
it was ping to see that
he is not apparently subject
to difficulty with The
O'Keefe's upper centre
stage as was sometimes
the case with Loth Man-
souri.
LB Boheme is proof again
that music is the queen of
the arts and one should
VIM ke every effort to enjoy

sales, as always, are brisk

formances.

Don't forget either that
the DuMaurier Downtown

Roy Thomson Hall is
hosting some of the major
artists.
Next Monday, Sarah

the other is the Selby Hotel.

But the fight by the On-

30 days in which to appeal

The trustee's office took
the hospital to court

the hospital was violating

following have been assessed:
• Extending the Scarborough Rapid Transit (SRT) System to Markham and Sheppard;
• Encouraging greater use of transit by developing an AUTO -BUS -SRT transfer 'Gateway
facility' at Markham and Sheppard;
• Extending Bellamy Road over Hwy. 401 to Milner,
• Constructing ramps to connect Neilson and Milner,
• Extending Progress Court
over Hwy. 401 with ramps to and from the east.
A second set of information centres have now been scheduled. Every
one is invited to

PHASE 2 PUBLIC REVIEW
Public information centres were held in March/April 1989 to discuss the Milner Avenue
Corridor and Malvern Gateway Transportation Study. Since then, interim improvements
have been identified, future overall levels of development have been assessed and the
'gateway' components have been identified. In addition, the transportation effects of the
following have been assessed:
• Extending the Scarborough Rapid Transit (SRT) System to Markham and Sheppard;
• Encouraging greater use of transit by developing an AUTO -BUS -SRT transfer 'Gateway
facility' at Markham and Sheppard;
• Extending Bellamy Road over Hwy. 401 to Milner,
• Constructing ramps to connect Neilson and Milner,
• Extending Progress Court
over Hwy. 401 with ramps to and from the east.
A second set of information centres have now been scheduled. Every
one is invited to
discuss their views -you are welcome to stay for a few minutes or all evening.

thousands of recreational

The law requires that one

your boat. But remember a
lifejacket/P.F.D. can't
save your life unless you
wear it.
Required equipment for
a small boat (5.5m in

oars with oar locks; a

Alcohol and boating don't
mix. Just like the familiar,
„don't drink and drive"
slogan, the same rule ap-
plies to boating. Alcohol
impairs a person's judge-

has the largest incidence of
drownings and alcohol is
the number one cause of
boating accidents. Don't
wind up in the drink - leave

whose doctrines advocated

was Dr. Cyrus Read Teed.
Teed had been inspired by
a vision, or "Great 11-
lumination" as he called it,
which instructed him to
change his name to Koresh,
meaning Gyrus in Hebrew.
The city he and his
followers envisioned,
covering 100 miles with 30
foot wide streets and home
for 10 million people, never
quite materialized. At the
peak of its popularity, the
settlement here had 350
residents.
Of the original 30
buildings, eight remain, in-
cluding an open-air theatre
and Teed's Mme. There is
also a oneof-,a-kind scale
model of a hollowed -out
Earth, illustrating
Koreshan belief that man
resides on the made sur-

New Lab Assistant Program
Recent studies show a
critical shortage of skilled
lab assistants in industiy.
A new program to train
industrial lab assistants is
being launched, in full-time
(2 semesters) or part-time
modes, by Centennial Col-
lege in January, 1990. A
special employment
preparation course, winch
includes four weeks of
work experience, provides
an excellent skills package.
says Graham Sparrow,
coordinatar.
Job prospects for grads
look promising. The phar-
maceutical, food,
cosmetics, plastics,
automotive, plant and
chemical industries need
lab assistants to gather and
present data as part of a
technical team, says Spar-
row. An advisory connunit-
tee of experts representing
these industries helped
prepare the program, and
want to hire program

Metro Toronto Board of Trade
Executive Summary
Board of Trade,
Premier's Council
Debate Approaches
to Improving
Ontario's Industrial
Competitiveness
As the only business
group in Ontario to issue a
substantial diallenge to the
report of the Premier's
Council "Competing in the
New Global Economy", the
Board of Trade on Apr. 24
hosted a dinner meeting for
nine members of the
Premier's Council, in-
cluding Industry, Trade
and Technology Minister
Monte Kwinter and Col-
leges and Universities
Minister Lyn McLeod.
The Premier's Council,
established in 1966, is a
multipartite body of
business, government,
labour and academic
leaders whose mandate is
to `steer out into the
forefront of economic
leadership and
technological
innovations".
The board's submission
in response to the
Premier's Council was
released in January 1989
( "Response to the
Premier's Council Report.
Competing in the New
Global Economy", Jan. 25,
1989).
The meeting, while por-
trayed as an -ideological
shootout" in The Toronto
Star, was more of anex-
of support bythe
board for what the
Premier's Council had to
say on training, education,
worker adjustment and re-
focusing of costing incen-
tives.
However, the board ex-
pressed opposition to some
of the council's more in-
terventionist reconuneida-
tions, which would entail
government involvement
in picking industrial "win-
ners" and favouring them
with special incentives
specifically targeted at
selected categories of in-
dustries.
The board expressed
favour for a more market-
oriented framework for in-
dustrial policy in Ontario,
as is embodied in the
Canada -U.S. Free Trade
Agreement and lower
levels of taxation for all
business enterprises. The
board nonetheless express-
ed support for the process
that the Premier's Council
has initiated, and apprecia-
tion for the government's
having made com-
petitiveness a central
theme in its governing
mandate.
Comments Regarding Biu
149, An Act to Amend the
Trespass to Property Act
Bill 149 proposes amend-
ments to the Ontario
Trespass to Property Act
that will restrict the rights
of owners/occupiers of
"premises used by the
public" to protect their pro-
perbes and make them
safe and secure for the
public.
Under the Bill, the onus
is placed on the occupier to
prove that a request to
leave the premises is not
based on discrimination
and, even if the occupier
perceives that he has done
so, the Bill allows the user
to easily challenge the oc-
cupier's reasons and
regain entry.
The board feels that the
Bill leaves open the poten-
tial for abuse and strongly
urges that it be withdrawn.
The Future of the Port of
Toronto, and the Role,
Mandate and Development
Plans of the Toronto Har-
bour Commission
In its submission dealing
with the future of the Port
of Toronto and the role,
mandate and development
plans of the Toronto Har-
bour Commission (THC),
the board addresses three
vital areas.
F9nst, the board restates
its position that the Port re-
main an important
economic facility and that
it be expanded. Secondly,
the board urges the struc-
ture of the THC Board be
changed to reflect the
board's regional nature
and the situation prevalent
at other harbour commis-
sions. Finally, the board
believes there needs to be a
leadership role on the
waterfront performed by
an a istiag agency.
Comments in Support of
the Retention of the East
.Metro Transportation Cor-
ridor (EMT0 in the Of-
ficial Plan of Metro Terow
to
The board, in a letter to
Metro's Economic
Development and Planning
Committee, strongly sup-
ports
Pports the retention of the
East Metro Transportation
Corridor (EMTC) in the Of-
ficial Plan of Metro Toron-
to.
The EMTC, which is to
join Highways 401 and 40'7
in Scarborough, is an im-
portant link in the overall
transportation plans of the
Greater Toronto Area. The
province already owns
most of the property re-
quired for its construction
and has protected the
Freeway in its recent
report entitled. *Transpor-
tation
ramspor-
tation Directions for the
Greater Toronto Area".

by Muriel Warden
Ajax Aquatic Club was
the host. The long course

Bob won the 100, 200 and
400 metre freestyle events
100 and 200 fly, 100 and 206

dividual medley. He was
also a very strong anchor
for the bo ' swimming
freestyle relay and second
place medley relay teams.
Thirty southern Ontario
clubs sent teams to this an-
nual s n$ meet. Scar-
borai Swim Club's age -
group coach, Rob Masson,
was really excited by the
excellent swims and im-
proved times of all his
young swimmers.
Jaime Winton, 12, won 3
gold and 1 silver medal for
er freestyle events, a 5th
ribbon for 200 backstroke
and an 8th ribbon in 100 fly

Roberts Tops In Chess
Lawrence Roberts of
Oshawa demolished incum-
bent Champion Peter Ja-
sionowski of Scarborough
by a 10-4 margin in the final
match of the 5 -Minute
Blitz -Chess Championship
of the West Hill Chess Club.
Like Jasionowski, the
largge burly Oshawa resi-
den�t has partici ted in the
W.H.C.C. s 5 -Minute Blitz -
Chess program for several
seasons. This season, he
was clearly the dominant
player on the Blitz circuit,
participating in most of the
tournaments offered and
winning most of those.
By contrast. Jasionowski
was able to play in only 3 of
the Blitz tourneys prior to
the Championship Elimina-
tion match -tournament
given other commitments.
Jasionowski was therefore
somewhat rusty and unable
to offer much resistance to
the Oshawa player.
Roberts will have his
name engraved on the per-
manent _plaque of the
WHCC 5-Miinute Blitz Chess
Championship as well as
receive a chessbook prize
for his efforts at the club's
awards ceremony on June
9. Jasionowski will receive
a chessbook prize for
finishing as runner-up.

sored by the Social Plann-
ing Council of Scarborough

chairperson of Greater
Toronto Area co-ordinating
committee and planning
co-ordinator.
Ms. Davis will give us the
background of the forma-
tion of the co-ordinating
committee and will discuss
the tole of the citizen in
planning our future in the
Greater Toronto Area.
