Concerns On Altona Forest At a Planning Committee meeting on June 6th, members of the I-Tighbush Community and some en- vironmentalists stated their concerns about the Altona Forest Land Use Study. Dr. Bruce Falls, representing the Universi- ty of Toronto, stated that he teaches ecology and often takes classes to the Spiers property on Altona Rd. for lessons and he is concerned about the preservation of the Altona Forest. He stated that there must be a substantial forest base in order to preserve plants and wildlife. Also, forests must be connected in order to allow for the movement of wildlife and that the two areas designated as forests are too small. are not in the best area and are not con- nected. oo-nected. Dr. Ronald Orenstein, representing the Wildlife Coalition supported Dr. Falls' comments and add- ed that the areas designated as a forest are too small and do not pro - i de for a buffer zone or a Connecting link. Jim Robb, representing •ne Save the Rouge 'rganization also agreed A i th the Falls and Orers- :ein. He is comfidert that ,he provincial government •A Ill designate the Rouge River System as a provin- cial park and be felt that the Altona Forest should be connected to it by the hydro right -d -way. He also sug- gested that the Ontario Heritage Foundation may provide assistance to preserve the forest. Ed Hanna, of Bowler Dr., stated that there is a con- nection between the natural and economic en- vironment and council must look to see how the Altona Forest area will af- feet Pickering. He said that the planning process has been inadequate because of the lack of information given to the public. He add- ed that there has been no exchange of information and environmental studies were not carried out prior to making decisions. Gord GUlard, represen- ting the Coalition of Picker- ing, asked why so many meetings were held before it was felt that an en- vironmental planner is needed. Katherine Murray, also repreenting the Coalition of Pickering, stated that the issue of the Altona Forest has been ongoing since 1990 and the developers knew the land was environmen- tally sensitive when they bought it. Brenda Davies, representing the Cber- rywood and Area Ratepayers Association, stated Pickering has been subjected to pow planninig in arras like Seaton and it is reflected in this study. She stated that Petticoat Creek may be affected by development and pointed out that the study does not provide for traffic pat- terns. Her association does not support this plan. In its second report to council the Planning Com- mittee recommended that council authorize piarming staff to initiate requests for proposals from interested environmental consultants to assist in the formulation and implementation of an environmental manage- ment process for the Altona Forest Areas. The committee Gather recommended that plann- ing laning staff prepare ap- propriate amendments to the Development Plan for the Highbush Community. Durham Bd. Of Education Compact Durham Jazz Performs Music Consultant Marian Williams introduced Com- pact Durham Jazz and told trustees a little about the history of the group. Com- pact Durham Jazz com- prises grade 2-8 students from Sunset Heights PS and Beau Valley PS. They have performed at the On- tario Public School Boards' Association inaugural din- ner, where they were wide- ly acclaimed, and at MusicFest Canada. O'Neill CVI Music Head Russ Baird further explained that the group was a pilot project and that as a result of their success a jazz course for grades 1-5 was being developed for next year. With the assistance of a few O'Neill CVI music students, the youngsters performed several vocal jazz selections, including the old favourite, How High the Moon. Guest conductors were two O'Neill CVI students who had spent considerable time working with the group. When questioned, several of the students cited meeting new friends and working with Marian Williams and Russ Baird as being the main reasons they enjoyed ung part of Compact Durham Jazz. Trustees praised the group's performance and expressed pride in the high calibre of their work. 19M Financial Report Ac- cepted Laurie Martin from the board's accounting firm Deloitte, Haskins and Sells was on hand to present the details of the board's 1968 Financial Report. He prais- ed the strong financial posi- tion of the board and com- mended trustees for their sound financial manage- ment over the years. He noted that the board's refusal to debenture capital costs has been largely responsible for the excellent shape of the board's finances. The 1968 Financial Report was ac- cepted as presented. 2 THE NEWS POST Wed. June 28, 1989 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Let's Brag A Bit! by Bob Watson Canada Day is this Sat. July 1st and we can't detect a bub- bling of national spirit which ought to exist in the best coun- try in the world. Perhaps our problem, besides the fact that most Cana- dians don't feel the necessity to brag a bit, is that there is no leadership nationally to celebrate July 1st except by having a holiday and heading off for some cottage country and water sports. Most areas of Metro Toronto have no big parades or displays of Canadianism . . except one place . . Scar- borough. Of course, Scarborough does its best not to publicize that it has the biggest Canada Day parade in Canada and this has been going on for many years. The parade starting at 6 p.m. at Knob Hill Park on Brimley Rd. north of Eglinton Ave. E. proceeds up Brimley Rd. to the Scarborough Civic Centre where officials and thousands of people watch the parade go by. All along Brimley Rd. people gather at the sidewalk, on their veran- dahs and lawns to see the parade. And the parade is organized and run by a group of citizens in an organization called "Scarborough Committee On Parades And Enter- tainment" or SCOPE. It is a terrific day in Scarborough but many residents of that city still don't know about the big parade because there is no advance publicity to speak of. We believe that being a Canadian should be bragged about and that each municipality should organize a big parade each July 1st .. or at least an event that equals or betters many of the multicultural events that have been on recently. What about it Canadians? Are we the best or aren't we' Disappointment In response to the Scarborough %ews' article, "Affor- dable Housing Locked Out - Ashton", the Scarborough Ac- cess to Permanent Housing Committee expresses its disap- pointment with Scarborough Couaned's decision regarding our request to endorse the applications to the province for funding. Municipal endorsement is a requirement of the program. Without the endorsettnent, the province will not consider releasing funds to the applicants. Under this program, the six applicants 1) Community Liaison Services. 2) Homeward Family Shelter: 3) Second Base (Scarborough) Youth Shelter, a ) Scarborough Hous- ing Assistance and Placement Education for Singles ( S. H. A.P. E.S.) ; 5) West Scarborough Neighbourhood Com- munity Centre: 6) Y.M.C.A. Youth Employment Services, proposed to develop housing services that will assist the homeless and those at tisk of becoming homeless. find per- manent housing. The proposed services were intended to meet needs for which services are either inadequate or nonexistent in Scarborough. We are disappointed for the applicants. The applicants represent a cross section of community services in Scar- borough. Working in these organizatiostn are many dedicated individuals who are committed to improving the quality of life in the community. The purpose of the Scarborough Access to Permanent Housing Committee was to attempt to access some resources and provincial dollars for the six organizations so that they might better serve and meet the needs of the com- munity. The Scarborough Access Committee is disap- pointed that the majority of Scarborough Council chose not to reopen the matter for endorsement of the applications. The Scarborough Access Committee intends to continue its efforts to access resources to enable Scarborough's com- munity organizations to better serve those in need. Yours sincerely. Doug Hum Chairman Order End To Duck Hunting at Point Peelee National Park The annual fall duck hunt has been terminated at Point Pelee National Park near Leamington, Federal Environ- ment Minister Lucien Bouchard has announced. Controlled duck hunting began in the federally - administered area in 1885 and continued under an agree- ment greement struck by the federal government with local hunters when the national park was established in 1918. Last September and October, 265 hunters shot 1,300 ducks. Published every Wednesday by Watson Publishing Company Limited, Est. 1950 Postal Address: Box 111, Agincourt, Ont.

Apprenticeship Funding The province is injecting another $10 million into the ap- prenticeship system, Skills Development minister Alvin Curling has announced. The added funding will allow the province to continue to expand and improve apprenticeship training despite federal funding restrictions. During the past two years, the number of apprentices has grown to more than 46,500 from 40.000. The provincial target is 60,000 apprentices by 1992. PCB retrieval Martins making progress One of the Ontario Hydro's mobile oil processing units, used to remove PCBs from contaminated oil, was at work at Lambton thermal generating station, south of Sarnia, in April - The trait treated 71,000 litres of oil to remove the PCB con- tent. Hydro plans to treat approximately one million litres of PCB contaminated oil this year. My Dearest Friend My dearest friend, When we turn eighteen, Life will bring us to different corners. You will be in search of a new destination And busy making new friends. You will achieve every success ever possible, And challenge every difficulty which comes forth. You will behold the greatest joys of life, And the world will cherish your smile forever. But for me my friend. God has something else in store. I will honourably accept what comes forth, When we turn eighteen. Life will definitely bring ups to different corners. But we will eventually meet again at a certain point, For you and I belong to the house of God. And whatever comes from God's house. Must return to God's house. Sunita Gogna Lester B. Pearson Collegiate Sailing Each person operating a windsurfer is required to have an approved P.F.O. or lifejacket. It should be comfortable and designed for active use. Lifejackets and P.F.D.s are survival aids which are designed to be worn at all times. A wet suit provides ex- cellent protection against the effects of cold water and wind. Protective clothing is especially im- portant during cool weather boardsailing. Remember a wetsuit is not an approved flotation device. Know your personal limitations and abilities. Don't get into trouble by overextending yourself. Sail with a buddy for sup- port in case you find yourself having dif- ficulties. A windsurfer has the right of way over a power - driven craft. Operate your windsurfer in a thoughtful, courteous manner. Stay clear of swimming areas. Know the rules of the waterways. Comprehensive Approach To Long Term Care A comprehensive approach to long-term care for people who are elderly or have physical disabilities has been an- nounced by the Ontario government. An inter -ministry task force, led by the Ministry of Community and Social Ser- vices. will develop a plan to streamline services by early 1990, with change beginning in the 1990-91 fiscal year. John Sweeney. Minister of Community and Social Ser- vices, made the announcement in partnership with Elinor Caplan. Minister of Health; rdavis Wilson, Minister Responsible for Senior Citizens' Affairs, and Retro Man- cini, Minister Responsible for Disabled Persons. "The growing number of senior citizens and people with physical disabilities challenges us to rethink the way we serve peo- ple." said Sweeney. "We must develop a system that better integrates individual independence, family and caregiver support, in-home services, and long-term care beds. The development of Ontario's king -term care system will be guvded by seven basic principles which are designed to: reform the funding system to emphasize individual needs; support caregivers: encourage use of the most appropriate, cost-effective service: emphasize services in people's own hones; establish a single, integrated admissions process: strengthen the role of the local community, and ensure af- fordability and appropriate sharing of casts. Here and There The right paper in the right basket Many Ontario Hydro employees now have two waste paper baskets in their work areas as a paper recycling pro- gram begins. Starting this spring a paper recycling program is being tested at selected Hydro work locations in Toronto. Hydro's recycling containers are not blue, like the blue boxes used in Metropolitan Toronto's recycling project, but are labelled with a green stripe. The contents of these special containers will be collected separately from the usual garbage collection. It is estimated that of the 3W,000 tonnes of solid waste generated in office buildings in Ontario each year, about 100,000 tonnes is paper that can be separated and recycled. One tonne of recycled paper means saving approximately 19 trees. Win A Dinner For Two At Hennessey's Restaurant All new subscriptions to this newspaper plus eligible for a lucky draw.

June 28, 198.9 Bill Watt's Worlds DINNER THEATRE: Damme, but it's hard not to enjoy Oliver! even in a flawed production such as the one currently in residence at Stage West Theatre Restaurant. The Lionel Bart creation based on Dickens' Oliver Twist manages the difficult task of transforming a gloomy story into a joyful realization that life can be good. It also manages to turn Fagin, one of the most despicable men in all of literature into a rather likeable befriender of homeless boys rather than the exploiter he really is.

We should mention the flaws early so that the review can end -on a positive note. Some of the performers should be reminded that this is a dinner theatre pro- duction. Though Stage West is a large operation, the theatre, as is the case with all theatre restaurants, is far more in- timate than traditional theatres and different per forming techniques are necessary. The grand gestures and extremes of the legitimate theatre can be ludicrous in the friendlier confnies of Stage West and others like it. Sowerberry the under- taker is overdone though the young man playing the role does redeem himself in some of the others; most cast members play several roles. Noah Claypole is played in a ludicrous man- ner and the cele of Dr. Grimwig in presentation goes beyond hamnoiness un- to burlesque. Both the latter riles are played by the same person but his name will not be mentioned because we suspect Director Diane Nyland Proctor will cor- rect these excesses as the show continues polishing itself. Toby Proctor as the Art- ful Dodger cannot seen to stay on key but that could have been opening night nerves or possibly the fact that the is year ofd's voice sScene changes were awkward at the opening and the set itself while clever doesn't come through as anything more than backdrop. Mind you, given the size of the stage. the sets, do yeoman ser- vice. All right then, let's get to the positives. In the title role, ten year aid Bobby Beckeu is most pleasung. He has a physical presence that combines the fragility of a poor abandon- ed boy with the strength of character that bespeaks good breeding ... Oliver to a T. His singing is pleasant and his dialect consistent. Swings an efficient foot in the choreography as well. As Fagin, David Holliday commands attention when ever on stage. He plays the role broadly but not so much so that he loses ef- fect. He is also a fine singer and his rendition of Reviewing the Situation makes Fagin almost endearing. Ted Pearson is almost classic villainy as Bill Sykes and Scott Hurst thrills with his fine voice as Mr. Bumble. Barbara Barsky is Nan- cy and her singing of As Long As He Needs Me is arguably the best we've ever heard. The song is a real torcher and a singer is free to tear up the scenery with it but Miss Barsky does not. Oh, she charges it with emotion but in the main she lets the lyrics tell the message. And, our final message is that one should visit Oliver! Any of the flaws we've mentioned should be corrected by now but even if they are not, will not 2 8 2 -214 4 enjjooayment. one's over all IAX NOT Ml1DED en t Oh, and from the sump - tuous buffet, we most hear- tily recommend the sweet and sour boneless pork chops. Scrumptious! CODA: Critics are not immune from missing the forest while mentioning trees. The chorus/ensemble of young boys in Oliver! deserve high praise for pro- fessionaliscn and controlled high spirits. Bless 'em all. UPCOMING: Perhaps you saw us on CTV welcoming Lonny Price to the Sharia Appel Theatre for a mid-day media conference and par- ty to announce Dtirante. That's the musical opening in the theatre in August and Mr. YPrice is to star in the ti- Ue role. He states he will not be imitating the late Mr. D. but having seen the predecessor in person we can attest that he doesn't need to. He is or will be Durante. We'll say no more about it until we review the opening - We were more than taken by the producer Nicky Fylan. He looks like a good combination of Dane Clark nd aCameron Mitchell, he has the apparent energy of ten men and his en- thusiasm alone should make Durante a hit. And, as he says, this Canadian production "is an export. not an import". In passing. be aware that there are going to be many promotional products sold in connection with the show. We've suggested that Sammy Taft be brought out of his semi -retire ant to manufacture Durante fedoras. We wager they'd sell well after the opening of the show. Remember where you read that. FOR YOUR INFO: In an earlier coltann we mentioned the ap- pearances of Otis Blackwell next Thursday and Friday at The Horseshoe as part of the Toronto Jazz & Blues Street Festival. Among the many songs he has written are All Shook Up, Don't Be Cruel, Return to Sender, Great Balls of Fire and Fever. He has been described as a black man whose songs were converted into gold by whites. If you can't make it to The Horseshoe you can catch Mr. Blackwell this Friday from 12:30 till 2 p.m. at Kops Kollectables Record Store. That's at 436 Queen, West just along from the 'Shoe. He will be signing records. Good chance to get close to a man who should be better known than he chooses to be. MUSIC BY THE LAKE: With all the foofarah go- ing on now about Ontario Place or rather, the depos- ed general manager we should be careful not to throw out the baby with the bath water. Whatever the alleged trangressions of Patricia Starr, let us not forget the positive things about Ontario Place and, above all else, the good entertainment it continues to bring to Toronto. It's not our intention to list all of it but we wish to bring attention to the fine programs of good music lined up for the forum. Mondays in July are for the Toronto Symphony and on successive Mondays from the 3rd through to the 24th, T.S. will present the 1812 Overture. Broadway by the Lake. Last Night of the Proms and An Evening with the Labeque Sisters. The Ontario Place Pops Orchestra performs on suc- cessive Wednesdays star- ting July 12th with George Zamfir and concluding on the 26th with A Tribute to Arthur Fiedler. Guess what's sandwich- ed in between on Wednes- day the 19th. Well, the big musical news in Toronto is The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber upcoming at The O'Keefe. Phantom of the Opera ditto at The Pan- tages, Cats at Massey Hall and Les Miserables at The Royal Alex. You guessed it; on the 19th, The Pops will be performing hits from Phantom of the Opera and Cats both by Andrew Lloyd Webber as well as from Les Miserables. RECORD NEWS: It's described as the most beautiful record store in the world and it just might be. We're talking about the neva A- & A. store in First Canadian Place where we attended the grand open - The centre pace of the store is a red baby grand piano reflecting the store's almost equal division bet- ween classic and popular L.P.s, C.D.s and cassettes. Frank Miller played, champagne was served by servitors in period costumes, the buffet frau Great Temptations was just exactly right ( Thank you Fiona Luke) and so was the evening. WEA has announced the release on CDs of Tine Duke Ellington Collection. The to volume series is a collec- tion of recordings personal- ly produced by Duke Ell- ington which had remained in his private collection. Tbey are now being made available by his estate. Included are some never - heard -before compositions. Speaking personally, we've always preferred the com- position of Mr. Ellington over his orchestrations and this collection should be verrrry interesting. Stony Plain has released on CD only, New Orleans Brass Bands featuring, among others, Dejan's Olympia, the Dirty Dozen and the Rebirth Marching Jazz Band. Worth a listen are Where Do We Go From Here? i Michael Damian ( Attic) and Good For- tune Wagoners (A. & M.) with some good side men including Sleepy Lebeef. NICE MAN: With the CHIN Interna- tional Picnic taking place this holiday weekend much attention is being paid as always and rightly so to popular any I.Axnbardi, the driving force behind the event. Mr. Lombardi and I go back even further than he thinks. We used to listen to him on Sunday afternoons while doing weekend study Ott. He was on CHUM -this was long before it adopted the first Rock format -and he was the host of Johnny Lombardi's Italian Hour. It was through him that we first became aware of con- temporary Italian musical artists and our apprecia- tion of them continues to this day. What really got to us about the program, thought, was his broadcasting man- ner; he sounded as though he was happy and he made me feel good Years went by and even- tually we met the man. We make so bold as to suggest that he is now a friend. The point of this little piece is that he has not changed. He still sands !happy because he is happy; happy with his work, happy with his family. In all that is being writ- ten about him we'd like on- ly to say that he is a happy man; he is a nice than.

June 1-8.1989 Business Community News) Toronto To Host Women Entrepreneurs In October, about 700 women business owners from around the world will converge on Toronto for the 37th Annual Congress of Les Fenunes Chefs d'En- treprises Mondiales (FCEM) , or World Association of Women En- trepreneurs. "Partnership in International Trade" will be the theme of the five-day conference, hosted by the Canadian Associa- tion of Women Executives oft Entrepreneurs, Oct. 3-8 at the Royal York Hotel. "The congress will offer an excellent opportunity for Canadian women en- trepreneurs to make con- tacts among their counter- parts in other countries and to discuss international trade issues of interest to business women." says Carol Bulmer. President of the Canadian Association of Women Executives do Entrepreneurs. "However, this congress has a second goal unique to the Canadian business scene - to forge a new na- tional federation of women business owners which will constitute the Canadian chapter of FCEM." One of the keynote speakers at the congress will be Stephen Lewis, Canada's former Am- bassador to the United Na- tions, now Special Adviser on Africa to the Secretary General of the U.N. and holder of the Barker Bailey Distinguished Visitorship in Canadian Culture at University College, Univer- sity of Toronto. Mr. Lewis has a long-standing in- terest in developing coun- tries and during the U.N. Special Session on Africa in 1996, chaired the commit- tee which drafted the five- year U.N. Program on African Economic Recovery. This program shifted the focus of U.N. agricultural programs from then to women, who carry the weight of responsibility for agriculture and family life in such countries. Also an outspoken advocate of women's rights, he insisted that Canada take a leading role in promoting women within the U.S. Secretariat.

Largely funded by Canada's private sector, the institute monitors the conduct of fiscal, trade and monetary policies. It con- tributes critiques and policy advice on other na- tional economic issues, in- cluding energy and com- mercial policy and policies affecting Canada's in- dustrial structure. Maureen Farrow specializes in macro- economic forecasting and policy analysis, with par- ticular expertise in the financial markets, con- sumer products, construc- tion and real estate and in the metals and mineral sectors. The congress will also of- fer two series of workshops - "Trading in the Global Community-' and ..Canada - A Trading Partner" with panels of experts in each workshW- Metro Task Force On Reassessment Metro Council, after hours of debate, has ap- pointed a Task Force on Reassessment to meet and come up with a new reassessment of properties in Metro Toronto. The task force consists of eight council members - Councillors Scott Cavalier, Ila Bossons, Michael Colle, Joan King, Peter Oyler, Chris Stockwell, Joe Pan- talone and Bev Salmon. A report from the task force is slated for Sept. 13th. East York Mayor Dave Johnson said he felt that the subject had been studied enough and as it was the biggest matter in Metro history should be dealt with now. North York Mayor Mel Lastman called the deci- sion absolutely ridiculous and said that the 1984 figures, if used to make a reassessment would be out of date and "all wrong". Councillor Chris Stockwell argued that a reassessment of properties in Metro was absolutely essential to be fair to everyone. OK Don Mills Rd. Widening The Don Mills Road widening has been approv- ed by Metro Council sub- ject to a report from the TTC on how to use an ex- clusive lane for buses, taxis and vehicles with more than two people. Councillor Marie Labatte tried to get the widening cancelled but East York Mayor Dave Johnson said it was necessary because of the volume of traffic already there. He pointed out that there were 1000 per hour on buses and people are trying to figure out how Metro Toronto Board of Trade Executive Summary Response to "Teacher Sup- ply and Demand in On- tario, 19W31111111118 - In response to a report by Dr. Laverne Smith. con- tracted by the Ministry of Education to study an im- pending shortage of qualified teachers in On- tario, the Educatim Com- mittee reviewed the 13 motions made in the report. found them to be entirely reasonable and supported their implernen- tation as a necessary in- vestment m our short term educational future. In an earlier submission, the board cautioned the Minister concerning an im- balance in the supply and demand of teachers, and recommended a study take place. ( "Teacher Sup- ply Demand", February 11, 1988) Response to the "Final Report of the Teacher Education Review Steering Committee" The Teacher Education Review Steering Commit- tee. after three and one half years of study, has produc- ed a final report with 33 proposed recommenda- tions. The Report is predicated on the establish- ment of a new Ontario Council for Teacher Educa- tion (OCTE) . While the board, essen- tially, does not disagree with this step, the board questions the respective Ministers on the structure, reporting, cost and par- ticularly the comment that "no need for fundamental or radical change" is necessary. Environmental and Health Issues on the Toronto Waterfront In conjunction with The Royal Commission Hear- ings on the Future of Toronto's Waterfront, the board submitted two recommendations on en- vironmental and health issues to facilitate decision- making on economically sustainable development. The board called for economic and scientific research to be carried out on the various environmen- tal and health issues. The board also called for the establishment of a con- sultative process to co- ordinate decisions about the waterfront, a process in which there is a role for the business community. POLICY IN ACTION Eavironmeatal and Health Issues am the Waterfront On May 2, the board ap- peared at the hearings on Environmental and Health Issues held by The Royal Commission on the Future of Toronto's Waterfront ( Crombie Commission) . John Shepherd, Chairman of the Environmental Quality Committee and George Grant, Chairman of the Waterfront Ad Hoc COmrnittee, presented the board's submission to Mr. Crombie. They also pointed out that the board had just ap- proved a Waste Manage- ment Code of Practice, to deal with the particularly urgent environmental issues of garbage ("A Draft Waste Management Code of Practice", April 27, 1989) . Future of the Port of Toron- to and the Role, of the Toronto Harbour Commis- sion On May 24, Board Presi- dent Peter Hermant and Waterfront Ad Hoc Com- mittee Chairman George Grant appeared before the Crombie Commission, presenting the board's sub- mission on the Port of Toronto and the Toronto Harbour Commission. Commissioner Crombie asked many questions of both Mr. Hermant and Mr. Grant and was genuinely interested in many of the board's proposals, par- ticularly the board's call for greater use of "ro-ro" technology and the board's proposal that the THC structure be expanded from 5 to 7 members, with a majority of appointees coming from the federal government, with one Har- bour Commissioner ap- pointed on the advice of The Board of Trade (as is now the case) . to make it to work. Councillor Ken Morrish said it was back in 1968 that the road use issue was first dealt with and that was when the Spadina Ex- pressway and Scarborough Expressways should have been built. However. Mr. Morrish said the "lefties" on coun- cil at the time stopped all road work and for 20 years now nothing has been done to handle the traffic pro- blems which have grown into big problems. He said he was for the widening of Don Mills Road as it would help a bit in the traffic problem. Councillor Joe Pantalone said there is an explosive attitude by taxpayers right now after the 12% increase in taxes this year and said he wants the right kind of reform. Councillor Derwyn Shea said he wants other ideas than using 1964 figures discussed and brought for- ward. Councillor Bob Sanders suggested that the commit- tee not be made larger and those on the chairman's list replaced if desired by the council. He said he would even agree to having all members against market value assessment as long as the committee brings in a report. Councillor Brian Har- rison said that Metro Toronto was formed in 1953 and the City of Toronto has taken a very narrow point of view ever since. He said that he feels that everyone should pay "their fair share" of the tax load. He mentioned that a group called SHAFT in Scarborough is getting "damn mad at paying more than their fair Councillor Richard Gilbert said to squabble now is to play into the hands of the provincial government. "We have to start taking charge of ourselves." he said. K 0 0 CIS 2140 Kingston Rd. 265-6665 10% OFF ado ow $10 PICKED UP (extgp Muslim) Minimum delivery order $12.

Superb scuba div- ing, intensive tennis and horseback riding are just a few of the reasons for go- ing- When thinking of Sonora Bay, picture the classic western, Clint Eastwood leading a band of desperadoes (who are, at heart, nice guys) through the rugged, cactus covered purple hills of Mexico's desert wilderness. Then add fine food, a friendly at- mosphere, the famous Parc sunset and a warm sea of turquois water. Beaches stretching in all directions beneath the jag- ged hills, clusters of air- conditioned bungalows around a tranquil blue lagoon, a beachfroat disco - that's the setting for Sonora Bay: all the pleasures of the finest vacation amid one of the world's most dramatic and beautiful landcapes. Some people come here for Club Med's innovating Intensive Tennis Program, others to go horseback riding through canyons or along the maks of beach. Some come to waterski or windsurf, sail, work out in the fitness centre, play volleyball or basketball, or simple bask in the sun. Sonora Bay is one of two Club Meds dedicated dive centres (the other being Turkoise in the Caribbean), where begin- ner scuba divers can earn diving certification and ex- perts can cruse the red and yellow reefs. slip down the sea walls of the Sea of Cortez, keeping company with groupers, giant manta rays, sometimes whales, shrimp of all sines, and playful, chattering sea lions.

All equipment and air is included. Highlighting any diving vacation at Sonora Bay is a trip to Seal Island where sea lions, often in- cluding the playful curious babies, are plentiful and the surrounding waters teem with varieties of sea life found nowhere else in the western hemisphere. But scuba is only part of what makes Sonora Bay unique. Then there is Intensive Tennis, a week-long pro- gram of daily morning and ro- gramnidailyand afternoon lessons that in- clude videotaping, ball machine practice, and detailed instruction on specific skills on each class. Weekly tournaments provide friendly competi- tion and the opportunity to meet new playing partners. The club has 29 all- weather courts (half lit for night play), two grands- tand courts and a separate tennis clubhouse. This is also one of three Club Meds offering the In- tensive English Riding Program. Classes are available to all levels of ex- penence and each student is assigned a horse for the week. The program which costs $313 CDN, consists of 2-1 2 hours of ring instruction daily, including dressage and jumping, and classes on such subjects as groom- ing, tacking and the anatomy of horses. Instruc- tion sessions are videotaped and students take home their personal tape. Equipment such as English -style helmets, boots, saddles and western gear and all other riding activities in the village are available to participants of the intensive program at no additional charge. But the intensive pro- gram is only one horseback riding option at Sonora Bay.

Culturally Responsive Social Services For Ontario Gerry Phillips, Minister of Citizenship. and John Sweeney, Minister of Com- munity and Social Ser- vices, announced details of the Ontario government's initiative to ensure that the province's social services become more culturally responsive. The ministers spoke to a news conference held at the downtown offices of the Catholic Children's Aid Society of Metropolitan Toronto. "Starting immediately," said Mr. Sweeney, "we will spend $3 million over four years to develop service models that will enable the mainstream sector to serve more effectively all segments of the communi- ty, including the ethno- cultural communities." This will be accomplish- ed through bridging in- itiatives, which will link mainstream service agen- cies with ethno-cultural groups. The ministry's plans for these bridging initiatives extend over all client ser- vices, including programs such as child and family in- tervention, community support services and home support for seniors. The first bridging in- itiatives will be organized in six areas of Ontario, where there are sizeable populations using languages other than English or French as their mother tongue. Ministry of Community and Social Ser- vices' area offices with responsibility for these in- itiatives are in Toronto, Mississauga, Barrie, Hamilton, Ottawa and Sud - AAA acceptable bridging proposals must involve joint participation of both the organizations taking part - ethno-cultural and mainstream. The ethno- cultural organization will be part of the planning and service delivery process, and will share in the funds allocated to the project. Approved bridging pro- jects will be funded as tripartite agreements bet- ween the Ministry of Com- munity and Social Services and the two community organizations. Mr. Sweeney gave ex- amples of this type of link- ed service delivery. A family has a child - related problem, and the parents therefore seek help from an ethno-cultural organization serving Latin Americans. Realizing that the problem requires the intervention of a children's aid society, the counsellor makes the referral. In a second example, Mr. Sweeney explained that consultation and staff training can also be funded as a bridging initiative.
