The 11 th Province
by Morris Nostaw
The budget of Ontario Treasurer Bob Nixon where he has
assessed costs and extra taxes in various forms to people
who live in Metro Toronto and the four surrounding regions
brings to one's mind a new possibility of government. We
believe it is time to suggest an lith province for the five
regions around Metro where taxation can take place and
the resultant money used to do the chores necessary for the
five regions.
No doubt this would handicap the rest of Ontario from
drawing on the financial resources of the mighty five
regions around Metro but it would put financing and taxa-
tion in its respective place. The Ontario government seems
to be using Metro Toronto and the four regions as a source
of revenue to help Ontario and the last thing in the mind of
the Queen's Park government is to do anything for this
area.
As the costs and area's problems are radically different
than those in northern Ontario it would, we believe, be bet-
ter that the jurisdictions are sorted out with an extra pro-
vince around these parts.
At least when a highway is deemed necessary it could be
built with Metro and district money instead of waiting 15
years as it is now. Transit could be instigated much earlier
by the new province because the representatives would be
directly involved with the problems instead of waiting for a
provincial government leader and his henchmen who seem-
ed to be oblivious of problems in the Metro Toronto and
district.
Open Letter To Mayor
Dear Mayor Trimmer:
As you know. it has now been over 7 months since the last
municipal election was held and its results are held in
abeyance. The public still does not know who is their true
Councillor for Ward 4 in Scarborough.
Yet. the City of Scarborough is trying to leave this situa-
tion unsolved indefinitely by rejecting the Court decision
ordering a manual recount of the vote. In February, City
Clerk Joint Nigh said the City will apply for Leave to Appeal
to the Court of Appeal. Recently, the Court has awarded
legal costs against the City for candidates who appealed the
results of the Nov. 14 poll.
This must be one of the worst cases in recent election
history. Voters have the right to know who they voted for
and who their true representative is by now.
The court order for a manual recount was mainly
because of the fact that the two machine vote counts show-
ed two different results. This court decision, therefore, is
believed to be most reasonable and a sound one to effective-
ly deal with the delicate situation. But the City has refused
to accept it, and thus has denied voters' nights to know the
election milts, and is also causing misuse of public funds.
Why is the City trying to appeal the court decision' And
what is the real intention of prolonging the case indefuute-
ly. when similar cases in other cities were resolved several
months ago"
My particular concern is not for any one person, but
because of the strong impression that the City of Scar-
borough is acting to protect the interests of its own
rnember sl, instead of pursuing truth, justice and fairness
in this city.
If the city is doing this for its own member, s). then, it
can't be anything other than unreasonable exercise of
power and gross injustice. If not, the city owes its citizens a
full explanation of why it has had to refuse the court deci-
sion for a simple manual recount, and as a result, has to
spend a considerable amount of taxpayers' money for un-
necessary legal procedures.
This course of action being taken by the city will set a
dangerous precedent for future elections in Scarborough
and for democracy.
It is also strange to note that some media have been quite
indifferent to this important issue. It is time for the media
and sensible citizens to speak out to correct improper
government policies and to uphold truth and justice in our
society.
I would appreciate your early reply to this open letter.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Chong -Tae Kim

A Youth Growth Industry
by Tom Mitchell
Like the Canadian population generally, our work fare is
growing older. But if you stay at a hotel or eat in
restaurants, chances are that someone under 25 years of
age will be at your beck and can.
Statistics Canada figures show that in the work force for
all industries the proportion of young employees, those age
15 to 24, dropped by 20% between 1976 and 1988.
Directly counter to this trend, however, is the employ-
ment pattern in hospitality industry services. Waiters 15-24
held 164.000 (40%) of the 409,000 hospitality industry jobs in
1976: by 1986, there were 337.000 of theta in a work force of
718,000 for a 47% share. Put another way, while total
employment in the hospitality industry grew 75%, the
number of young workers rose more than 100%.
Food services and accommodation are the main com-
ponents of the industry. Typical entry-level jobs include
waitress or waiter. bellhop, housekeeper, dishwasher or
desk clot. More experienced employees are needed for
such positions as A F and managers_ The industry has
been growing rapidly. Since 19M Ontario's hospitality m
dustry has grown 85%, the western provinces 794, Atlantic
provinces 79% and Quebec 58%. The industry's employ-
ment of young workers has grown even more rapidly - up
117% in Ontario. 103% in western provinces. 96% in Atlantic
Canada and 95% in Quebec.
The industry has always attracted young workers. Jobs
are relatively easy to rind, specially during the summer
tourist maiths. Most of the entry-level jobs require little or
no experience. and training needed to perform them is
minimal_
Besides providing so much of the wort force for the
hospitality industry, young people also support it in a major
way. A 1988 survey by Gallup Canada Inc. showed that 63%
of Canadians age 18-24 had eaten a restaurant meal within
the last three days: for all adults, the comparable rate was
46%.
Here and There
Addiction Survey
Although you may never require treatment for alcohol or
other drug abuse, someone close to you might. A survey by
the Addiction Research Foundation (ARF) showed that in
1986 over 47,000 people in Ontario (6.6 per 1,000 population,
is years and over) required treatment for addiction to
drugs or alcohol. This is in addition to the people who are
receiving help or treatment through Alcoholics
Anonymous, family physicians and other community
resources.
Mainstream Canada
A share of the blame
By Ann M. Smith
The currant debate being
waged over federal Finance
Minister Michael Wilson's sales
tax reform package has, for the
most part, focussed on the
downsides of the government's
controversial and highly com-
plicated plan of action.
While it's true that Wilson
and his finance department
officials deserve most of the
criticism for their decision to
gait -alone with a Goods and
Services Tax (GST), it's equally
true that both opposition par-
ties are also guilty of wrong-
doing. As John Bulloch,
president of the Canadian
Federation of Independent
Business puts it: "Politicians of
every political stripe are show-
ing incredible hypocrisy inas-
much as we haven't heard a
peep from any of them about
the GST becoming a tax grab of
historic proportions.
"We haven't heard so much
as a whisper from any member
of parliament Tay, Liberal or
New Democrat—about the
GST generating billions of dol-
lars for future governments at
the expense of the beleaguered
taxpayer. "
The nine -per -cent tax, due to
begin Jan. 1, 1991, will be levied
on a broad range of goods and
services from haircuts to auto-
mobiles. After talks between
Ottawa and the provinces fell
apart. Wilson announced his
"go -it -alone" plan for the two-
tier system. The new GST is ex-
pected to create numerous new
expenses and paperwork for
small businesses handling
the complicated calculations
required by a system that in-
cludes both a provincial sales
tax at the retail level (except in
Alberta) and a federal sales tax
at every level on almost every
component.
Bulloch is concerned that no
one in Ottawa has asked
whether the GST will eventually
rise, as it has in many other
countries such as New Zealand
where it is now 12.5 per cent, or
in Britain where it crept up to
15 per cent, or in France where
it has been pushed up to 18.6 per
cent. There is no safeguard, he
says, to protect the Canadian
taxpayer from a never-ending
series of increases.
"In their eagerness to get
their hands on this GSI' money
machine, the Tories have care-
fully avoided any public com-
mitment that would prevent
them from raising the GST rate
after the next dection," Bulloch
adds.
"And. for char part, neither
the Liberals nor New Demo-
crats are anxious to Mise the
issue for fear of jeopardising
this potentially hicratrw money
supply. They realize, after all.
that the Tories won't hold office
forever. „
The evidence supporting
Bulloch's ommous prediction is.
unfortunately, overwhelming.
The desire to increase revenue
through increased taxes seems
to be about the only thing that
all tbree parties can agree on.

Buying Our Cattle
The Spanish province of Cantabna will purchase nearly
$25 million worth of Ontario dairy cattle, bulls. semen and
embryos over the next five years. Representatives from
Cantabria and Ontario Minister of Agriculture and Food
Jack Riddell today signed a memorandum of understan-
ding, facilitating the purchase.
The actual purchase of cattle will be carred out by the
private sector. Ontario's role in the transaction is that of
facilitator, paving the way for the livestock exports. Hays
Farms International Limited of Oakville, Shore Holsteins
International Limited of Glanworth and Semex Canada of
Guelph will be providing Holstein heifers, purebred bulls
and other genetic material to Cantabria, over the next five

former who cannot adjust.
That last sentence is our
way of saying that the
sand system should not
necessarily be faulted in
those instances where the
dialogue or the songs can-
not be heard properly. The
fault lies with the per-
former in each case.
Enough of the technical!
Let's get to the artistic.
For those unfamiliar
with A Funny Thing allow
us to point out that it is
written by Burt Shevelove
and Larry Gelbart and was
an original vehicle for
three fine funny men who
had made their way out of
burlesque. We speak of
Phil Silvers, Zero Mostel
and Jack Gilford.
The convoluted plot com-
bines elements of The Com-
edy of Errors and Minsky
in the story of a fast talking
slave Pseudolus trying to
obtain his freedom by ar-
ranging a sexual tryst bet-
ween his master's son Hero
and a yang virgin Philia
destined to be sold to a
Roman general Miles
Glorioesus. All this is to be
done while the slave's ran-
dy master Senex is away
and with the connivance of
another slave Hysterium
("I was born to grovel.")
The action is intended to
be frenetic and it is
counterpointed by the fine
scare of Stephen Soodbeim
written before he took
himself too seriously.
Ray Vetere as Pseudolus
has a fox comedic sense of
delivery but as yet, his tim-
ing is suspect. Pwudolus is
fast talking but be is also
.

fast thinking and his comic
lines should have the
merest of pauses before ut-
terance. Perhaps the direc-
tion of Diane Wilkinson is
at fault but what ever the
reason, we're sure that Mr.
Vetere has now made the
necessary fine tuning ad-
Andy P9111101ff cannot be
faulted as Hysterium nor
can Ben Gans as Senex. We
worked with Mr. Gans
many Peers ago in a pro-
duction of Born Yesterday
(it seems like only yester-
day!) and what a pleasure
it is to see him making the
transition from leading
man to a fine character
delineator. He sings well
too.
Randy Leslie as Hero is
well named -think about it -
and has a fine, robust
voice. Unfortunately, that
of Tracy Goltsman as
Philia is less than satisfac-
tory and quite wreak.
Phil Cook is a comic
Utiles, filled with bluster
and essence of silly assism.
As Marcos Lycos, David
Roman (is that name for
real'.) makes a fine and
funny procurer and Bill
Granger makes much of
his role as a doddering old
man in search of his lost
children.
Domina, the randy wife
of the salacious Sene x stops
just shoat of over acting bort
her singing is not of the
best.
We'll have to hurry along
as we mention the perfor-
mances d Brian Holmes,
David Turner and David
Vormlttag as The Pro-
teans, a trio who perform
yeomen service in a varie-
ty of comic roles.
Kudos as well for the
gorgeous young ladies of
the ewe: Elizabeth
Yanow. Michelle Roberts,
Judy and Cardin Jeba,
NaLois Kivesto
dy Gans.
Joe Gascon conduct%
the orchestra with
briskness and precision
that well serves the singers
and the nice choreography
of Sue Craft.
We were much taken by
the costume of Alan&
Butler. The addition of
socks and sneakers serves
a purpose more than that of
the comedic. They protect
the performers from the
hard stage surface and the
tui of the lawns.
A Funny Thing Happen-
ed on the Way to the Forum
is being presented through
the weekend and we recom-
mend attendance. Why not
dine beforehand at The
Guild and make a fine
evening of it.
STILL AL FRESCO:
By now you'll have read
much and hopefully heard
even more about the birth-
day ley being held in
Mirvish Village next Mon-
day
oo-day for Ed Mirvish as he
hits midway into his eighth
decade. We won't be redun-
dant but must alert all and
sundry to something that
just might happen during
the four hoar party.
One of the entertainers
will be smash hit
singer; dancer Frank Ruf-
fo. He's almost as good
looking as we are, sings as
well as we do and, gndg-
ingly admitted, is a better
dancer.
But, we can beat him at
arm wrestling. It all
started some years ago
when he and I contested
over a jammed window in
Sylvia Shawn's Rosedale
mansion during one of Gino
Empry'
If the spress of the crowds
expected at Mr. Mirvish's
party will allow, we intend
to challenge Mr. RuHo to
wrist combat and may the
winner draw the first
claret. What a slow!
Even without our modest
presence however, it's go-
ing to be a tremendous par-
ty for one of the nicest men
it has been our distinct
pleasure to meet.
It hardly seems possible
that his 70th birthday ley
was five years ago. Time
flies.. and so does Mr. Mir-
vish. Next day after his
party, be jets to London for
a series of functions in
h000Ur of his elevation to
Commander of the British
Empire to be bestowed at
Buckingham Palace on
August list.
Well done Mr. Mirvish.
Nice to know you -

New Guide Helps Evaluate Residences
With more Canadians
retiring earlier and
Canada's aging population
increasing, many ii
are faced with the
challenges of what to do in
their retirement years and,
as importantly, where they
will be living.
Lifestyle Retirement
Communities has created a
new guide to help seniors
evaluate the retirement
resi' 11 choices that are
currently available to
them.
This detailed Retirement
Residence Checklist con-
tains
oo-tains questions dealing
with various aspects of
retirement living. It has
been designed to help
seniors identify what they
are looking for, and to
clarify what each
residence offers so they
can make their decision
with confidence.
Questions on the four
page cbeckhst are grouped
into four categories of in-
terest: suites; services;
building amenities and
financial matters.
"The Retirement
Residence Checklist assists
seniors in malting the right
choice for retirement ly-
ing," says Bob Sihorsld.
Vice -President, Marketing
and Sales of Lifestyle
Retirement Communities.
'"Ibere are more choices
than ever before available
to today's seniors and this
can prove confusing. The
Checklist helps put the
choices in perspective."
Copies of the checklist
are now available at all
Lifestyle Retirement Can-
munities locations, and at
the company's bead office
in Toronto. They are also
being distributed to a
number of hospital
discharge planners and
seniors centres. Upon re-
quest. members of the
media will also receive
copies of the checklist for
distribtian to seniors.

Board Of Trade Opposes Bill 208
The Board of Trade of
Metro Toronto has called
for the withdrawal of Bill
208, which would amend
the Occupational Health
and Safety Act and give
certain to closedownas busees the m
with perceived safety pro -
In a submission to
Labour Minister Gregory
Sorbara the board called
the idea of a certified
employee with authority to
issue stop work or "en-
tirely unacceptable".
•'Abuse is dearly possible
in the context of union
negotiations or when a cer-
tified employee is subject
to heavy peer pressure.
These situations cannot be
avoided and will lead to un-
necessary work
stoppages," the board
"The changes ------
in this Bill ensure higher
costs and a less com-
petitive employer, but do
very little to protect
employees," says Ross
Dunsrnore, vice Chairman
of the board's Labour Rela-
tions Committee. He adds,
"Employers may have no
control over the selection of
employee members of
health and safety commit-
tees, but remain responsi-
ble for safety in the
workplace."
Regarding
proposed
Workplace
ncy to con -
development of
health and safety in On-
tario, the board warned
that " Me Workplace Agen-
cy must not replace the
responsibility of the
Minister of Labour for safe-
ty in Ontario," adding,
"the wide ranging powers
proposed for the Agency
should be eliminated" as
"the result is a new
bureaucracy created
without a demonstrated
public need.."

"In fiscal 1989, 22% of the
district's loans went to

Condo Seminar
How come the
maintenance on a con-
dominium offering million
dollar recreation facilities
can cast LESS than a cow
domuuurn where there is
taminated sal. The pro-
vince had appealed the
decision which awards
residents, most of whom
have since moved, between
:16,500 and $50,000. The
Supreme Court concluded
that the province was
negligent in selling the land
for homing.
The 4B residents purchas-
ed their houmes in the early
WWs as part of a special
government program to
make home ownership
easy for lower income peo-
ple. But in 1980, radioactive
hot spots were discovered
Residents started legal ac-
tion against the province in
1961.
The residents argued
that the province knew
about the radioactive soil
when it sold the homes.
Radioactive material was
dumped on the Malvern
land in the 1940's. The land
was expropriated by the
province in the early 1950's.
The province bought out
all those who wanted to
sell. It currently rents out
the homes.
Should Not Be Deprived
by Gay Abbate
The six area
municipalities which make
up Metro Toronto should
not allow Metro to deprive
them of more than Rio
million annually, says
North Yat Mayor Mel
Lastman.
To stop Metro, Lastman
is ready to take it to court.
He already has the backing
for legal action of all the
municipalities except the
(Sty of Toronto.
The centre of the con-
troversy is Metro's deci-
sion to move up the dates
when the municipalities
must hand over the proper-
ty taxes collected for
Metro. About 25% of each
tax dollar goes to Metro.
Municipalities currently
collect taxes as long as 60
days before they have to
hand it over to Metro and
keep the interest accrued.
Metro now wants this in-
terest for its own uses.
Starting next year, Metro
wants its money within ten
days of when it is collected.
In 1991, the money has to be
handed over within five
days and within one day by
1992.
Lastman says this poses
a hardship for the
municipalities because the
._........
majority of taxpayer do
not pay un the due dates.
This forces councils to
hand over money they have
not yet collected
themselves, be said
Lastman says the new
levy dates will cast North
York $11.9 million next
year in lost interest on
Metro's money. This could
result in a 17% tax hike, he
said. By 1992 the city
would have to borrow more
than $50 million just to pay
Metro money it had not yet
collected.
Scarborough will lose
over $1 mullion in interest
and East York $750,000 by
1992 forcing a 3.3% tax bike
just for this alone.
Metro Council recently
refused to defer the matter.
Lastman says if Metro
refuses to re -open and
reconsider its decision,
then legal action will begin.
"We're not going to roll
over and play dead," he
said.
Metro has said it will use
the estimated $40 million in
additional money to offset
tax increase. Lastman,
however, remains skep-
tical. "It's easier for Metro
to spend $40 million than it
Is for local municipalities,"
he said.
not even a swimming pool?
Why is it imporant for the
average condominium
buyer to know if the con-
dominium be is considering
is in a building with
primarily owner -occupied
or rental suites?
Should you ask if the
square -footage of a condo
you're proposing to buy in-
cludes the square footage
of the balcony or solarium?

Berths On Tall Ship
Available In July
Richard Birchall, ex-
ecutive director of Toronto
Brigantine, has announced
there were 16 berths still
available for youths aged
between 14 and 18 for an 8
day on -the -water sail -
training program on board
the Toronto Brigantine
Pathfinder starting Fri. Ju-
ly 21.
The 8 day course starts in
Kingston, and the boat with
an experienced adult cap-
tain, qualified teenage of-
ficers and their new crew
will sail to Toronto.
Cost of the case is $405
for eight hard-working but
rewarding days of adven-
ture, as the crew learn both
to manage the boat in all
conditions and to live and
work together in a small
space. The fee includes
food, training and accom-
modation. Transportation
can be arranged from
Toronto or candidates can
join the vessel in Kingston.
For youths unable to af-
ford the fee, bursaries
covering the cost are
available.
Joining Toronto Brigan-
tine can be both a short-
term or a long-term com-
mitment, depending on
how the child views his first
experiences. For most par-
ticipants, a first course
leads to a second in either
the same or the following
year, additional work on
the boats and theory
courses over the winter and
a return to the Brigantines
in their third and fourth
years of involvement as of-
ficers who, in turn, teach
the newcomers.

One of the furxl m I truly enjoy as MP is sharing in
special family occasions. On June 3rd. I had the pleasure of
presenting George and Esther Puckrin of Pickering with a
50th wedding anniversary certificate. Congratulations
George and Esther, on fifty years of happiness.
Fifty years ago on July 1st, Mr. and Mrs. Springate of
Ajax were married. To commemorate their 50th wedding
anniversary, the Springate's held a celebration party at the
Ranch House in Ajax. It was great to see a gathering of the
family.
Another type of anniversary that I have the pleasure of
partaking in are those of industries and organizations in the
riding. The Red Cross held a 50th Anniversary Dinner
celebration on June 8th, in Ajax. It was indeed an honour at-
tending the Red Cross gala, as it is an organization which
has a fifty year record of helping those in need.
On June 9th, LASCO Steel of Whitby officially celebrated
their 25th year of operation. The Hon. Michael Wilson and
myself were on hand to participate in the ceremonies. Mr.
Wilson congratulated LASCO for staying competitive by
keeping on the leading edge of technology and for using the
Canada -U.S. Free Trade Agreement to their advantage.
Finance Minister Wilson also commended LASCO for their
excellent safety record as recognized by the Ontario
Labour Board. I support Mr. Wilson's statements and wish
LASCO continued success.
Twenty-two years ago, a company of venturers from the
boy scout movement of Whitby reversed the route taken by
Jacques Cartier and arrived in Longueuil, Quebec. This trip
culminated in some dialogue, and the decision to have a
twinning program between the two communities. On June
16th and 18th, I had the pleasure of taking part in the 21st
annual twinning weekend celebrations in Whitby. Con-
gratulations for 21 years of expanding cultural ties.
Consumers Gas recently celebrated the fact that they
now have over a million customers. Everyone in atten-
dance at their "Thanks A Million" celebration party on
June 6th, certainly had a great time.
As MP for Ontario Eliding, I am often asked to join in the
parade. The Optimist's Parade, part of the Ajax Home
Week Celebrations, was granted a reprieve from the rain on
Sat. June 10. 1 certainly enjoyed being surrounded by so
many good spirited individuals.
On June 17th, I had the honour of taking part in the
Flickering Village Parade, part of the Pickering Village
Festival. The success of the parade was one of a number
that took place during the festival.
Report
Emergency and trauma services in health care facilities
across Ontario have been given an $18 million boost to
enhance the quality and accessibility of emergency ser-
vices.
'!iris additional funding, which was announced late last
month, is part of the government's province -wide action
plan for specialty health care.
The Minister of Health, The Honourable Elinor Caplan
said, "the additional funding will improve the coordination
of services - from the time a patient is picked up by am-
bulance, arrives at a hospital emergency department and,
when necessary, is transferred to a critical care or trauma
unit.,,
Half of the $18 million will be used to:
'implement guidelines to help hospitals improve efficiency
in their emergency wards;
'designate seven new regional trauma networks to co-
ordinate regional hospital beds and services to ensure
severely injured patients get prompt access to the type of
specialized health care they require.
*establish a central provincial critical care hotline for doc-
tors in each region, province -wide. Hotlines will eliminate
the need for doctors to call several hospitals in search of
more specialized services by establishing a co-ordinator at
a regional hotline centre who will have an imentoy of ser-
vices available.
It is expected that implementation of the guidelines will
ensure emergency care is available at all times and that
emergency patients get priority over elective cases, both in
emergency rooms and upon admission to hospital.
"There is little doubt," the Minister said, "the guidelines
will help hospitals improve the quality of emergency care
as well as eliminate unnecessary backup in their emergen-
cy rooms...
Mrs. Caplan said that emergency and trauma services
are part of several specialty health care areas where her
ministry is concentrating resources.
