Page 2 THE NEWS'POST Wed. July 26, 1989 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Hydro Rates To Go Up? Ontario Hydro should raise electricity rates by 5.3 per- cent for 1990 to help control its debt, maintain existing facilities and provide reliable service. This is one of 75 final recommendations filed on July 17th at the Ontario Energy Board hearing by the Municipal Electric Association (M.E.A. ), a group representing Ontario's municipal hydro utilities. This increase would be in addition to the 2.2 percent in- crease resulting from the $138 million levy Ontario Hydro must pay the provincial government for guaranteeing the utilitv's $25 billion debt. Evidence submitted during the five-week hearing in- dicates Hydro's debt reduction efforts have not been overly effective. To better manage its debt and provide for stabili- ty, the M.E.A. recommends the utility raise its 1990 net in- come to $817 million, some $250 million more than Hydro recommended. The M.E.A. proposal will not only reduce hydro's debt by one percent, but will apply needed funds to maintain aging transmission equipment. In its argument, the M.E.A. urges hydro to continue pur- suing its worthwhile $2 billion demand management pro- gram over the next decade. Energy efficient technologies will help reduce rapidly growing electricity demand. Hydro's annual electricity sales growth continues to be in the 4 percent range. The association's report also expresses concerns over Hydro's staff levels. Two thousand of the 25.000 hydro employees were recently declared surplus because of an operations review by an external management company. However, staff levels continue to rise. The association's 310 page report also recommends that Hydro realign its above average salaries with those of com- parable companies to help control its operating casts; con- tinue its excellent performance in consistently surpassing provincial government requirements for reduction of acid gas emissioris: and accelerate its expansion program for transmission capacity because of a high growth rate in electricity demand. Loonie & Higher Taxes I saw a letter which was asking readers to express their dissatisfaction with higher taxes by hoarding loonies. . . The only beneficiary of such mindless buying will be the mint. Thus, I believe the letter was written by mint lob- byist. If I want lower taxes. I will write - postage free - to my Hon. Parliament Member and suggest to him to reduce deficit by cutting spending. not by increasing taxes. Higher taxes bring higher prices of everything. The mint spent iriillions of dollars to persuade institutions to order from banks a lot of loonies. They are eager to mint and make money. At that time. I was unable to get from my grocer any other change but a Lonnie. I was refusing them; they are too heavy and too bulky for a normal purse. If a dime is smaller than a nickel, why does the Loonie have to be larger than a quarter? The higher the cost of material, the higher the selling price. Worst of all; paper bills stopped being printed this week - 1 am questioning if we save at all by opting for today's Loonies. They cost initially more than paper bills, they in- crease deficit and they must be paid by borrowed funds. Does Mr. Wilson have his own cost accountant" Did he con- sider the cosi of interest for taxpayers or did he simply follow the mint proposal' Retailers do not use standard paper bags any more, because plastics are cheaper and more durable. They do not use metal bags either. Before a decision was made for the Loonie, was an alter- native considered, even for expense of small research and development? For example, paper bills can be sealed in translucent plastics. Try to tear them by fingers: impossi- ble, in contrast to paper alone. Or perhaps plastics can be used alone. They are so good that airplanes are partly built from them, even propellers. And they can be printed on. Was it also ever considered, that a Lonnie can be made smaller and lighter, also for taxpayers' bill' Was it ever considered. who will like this huge metal in his tiny purse compartment' When industry plans, they consider the lifetime of new product max. 5 years. After that, it must be updated due to technological advance and it will be possibly cheaper (see declining costs of high technology, computers, TV in last decades). Calculating saving. as we were presented, for 30 years, is naive. Loonie can be justified as souvenir. Anybody is free to write, postage free. I firmly believe that the Loonie is contributing to higher taxes. Jerry Ha.iek Scarborough ne0S11 Published every Wednesday by Watson Publishing Company Limited.

Smith As opposition continues to mount over the federal govern- ment's decision to go -it -alone with the controversial new Goods and Services Tax (GST). Canadians hate good reason to wonder how we ever got into this mess in the first place In fact it seems hard to believe that when Finance .Min- ister Michael Wilson originally began formulating a plan for the reconstruction of the archaic sales tax system, there was good reason to be optimis- tic Finance department offi- cials had, after all, entered into a series of gruelling negotiations with their provincial counter- parts in the hope of combining the provincial and federal sales taws into a single, less comph- ated system. So far so good. This mood of chumminess, however, didn't last long and ahnost without warning, the negociatiors fell apart. The rea- sons now understood for the breakdown in talks are largely political: for their part, finance department officials were adamant in their decision to implement the new tax by Jan. 1, 1991. Not only were they eager to get their hands on the enormous amount of revenue that is expected to be generated by the new tax, but the reality of a soon -to -folk* federal elec- tion (expected sometime in late 1992) boxed the government into a very rigid imdarkntation scliodule. On the other hand. two of the largest provincial players, Quebec and Ontario. didn't like the 1991 deadline because of the political conflict that the new tax was etpected to crate and, with elections in their respective provinces just around the cornier, they refused to co-operate. John Bulloch, president of the 82,000 -member Canadian Federation of Independent Business alk the stalemate "a disgrace,. .•The players responsible for the lack of co-operation on the foderaE provincial sales tax issue obviously felt it was more im- portant to place party politics before the good of the nation, •• he said. Instead, Bulloch says, Cana- dians will now face a two-tier system that will hit consumers and small businesses the hardest. Small retailers, for example, do not have the com- puterized cash registers capable of handling the complicated calculations required by a sys- tem that includes both a provin- cial sales tax (in all provinces except Alberta) and a federal tax of 9.0 per cent each Levied on different goods at various stages. "If the government proceeds with the plan, Canada will be the only country in the world Toronto has been recognized by the United Nations as the most ethnically and racially diverse city in the world. In celebrtion of its rich cultural diversity, and, to encourage continued respect and tolerance for individual similarities and differences, Toronto City Council has declared 1989 the Year for Racial Harmony. The Toronto Eaton Centre, in celebration of the Year for Racial Harmony held The E.C. Street Festival, a twelve day event with culturally diverse entertainers performing daily which started ou Mon. July 17th and continues to July 29th. Above, James Bullock, President, C.E.O. of Cadillac Fairview; Toronto Mayor Art Eggleton, the Hon. Gerry Phillips, Ont.

Here and There Sales Activity Up In June Figures released by Michael Rosen, President of the Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB ), indicate that Metro Toronto's housing market is stable. Members of TREB reported 2,795 homes sales through the Multiple Listing Ser- vice in June. The average price was $271,649 and the me- dian price was $230,000. $2410,000 For Toronto Arts Centre Disadvantaged children in downtown Toronto will enjoy a wide range of cultural opportunities in a community arts centre purchased and renovated with the help of a $241,488 grant, Minister of Culture and Communications Lily Oddie Munro and Attorney -General Ian Scott (MPP - St. George - St. David) annotiriced last week. The funding. from the Ministry of Culture and Com- munications' Cultural Facilities Improvement Program, has enabled Cabbagetown Community Arts Centre Inc., a storefront community arts, recreation and social service organization, to acquire an existing building at 454 Parlia- ment St. as its first permanent home. Almost without exception, today's households own automobiles (94% of households have at least one). Back in 1937-38, only 29% of families owned a car. with a two-tiered sales tax;' Bulloch said. According to Bulloch, the best solution to this mess would be a return to square one. In other words, the government should go back to the provinces and work out a less compli- cated, unified national sales tax. It's no secret that Wilson is determined to oornpkte this sec- ond and final phase in the over- haul of Canada's seriously flawed tax system. But in this haste to replace the current fed- eral sales tax, the government would be doing this country an even greater disservice by launching this nasty alter ego. CFre FNtur seeds.

Pooldome For Scarborough? by Gay Abbate The City of Toronto has the Skydome but Scar- borough could have this country's fust pooldome or aquadome. Rod Robbie who design- ed the Skydome says it is possible to put a retrac- table roof on part of the $90 million pool complex the ci- ty announced last week it wants to build for the aquatic events if Toronto gets to host the 1996 Olym- pic Games. "It's a very thrilling pro- ject, a fantastic challenge," said Robbie in an interview. He said that his firm will bid to design the Scarborough facility. "It could be the core of a very interesting public recreation centre after the games," he said of the 15,000 seat proposal. He said a retractable roof on a pool would be dif- ferent than the one on the dome. He said the proposed Scarborough complex would be a world class facility "better than anything anywhere else-" He said he wants to design the complex so it is a "friendly„ building - a place where families will want to go. "It won't be just for the elite athlete," he said. One of the things Robbie would like to see included in the centre is a wave pool. He said this could easily have a retractable roof. He also said the swimming and diving events should be held in Scarborough. . . Aug. 4th Police will take part in the opening ceremonies, and the "Red Hackle Pipe Band", will lead the parade of athletes onto the square. Everyone is invited to at- tend and welcome the In- dianapolis athletes. For further information please call 396-7260. eace Games Track and Field athletes, ages 11-18 years, are in- vited to attend.

Here are some freezing tips to cap- ture top quality of your her- ries- • Freeze berries during the peak season when flavor and texture are at their best and cost is reasonable. • Prepare and freeze ber- ries as soon as possible after picking or purchase. • Strawberries, raspber- ries and blueberries, frozen for later use in Berry Sauces, are best frozen whole, without sugar. • Remove hulls from strawberries and raspber- ries prior to freezing. Wash strawberries before hulling to help them maintain their shape. Remove all excess moisture from berries prior to freezing. A clean terry towel or a salad spin- ner are good aides to moisture removal. Blueberries are best if frozen without washing. • Measure the berries re- quired for each recipe, place dry berries on trays in the freezer until firm. When firm, transfer ber- ries to good quality con- tainers such as the new grated rind 114 cup juice 13 minutes 12 minutes 11 minutes 6250 mL jars 6.250 mL jars 6230 mL jar Bernardin Freezer Bags. Press out all excess air and fasten each bag securely with the tie provided. These unique Berry Sauces require very little cooking time. Unlike jams and jellies, you need not worry about gel tests. The mixtures thicken slightly during cooking and set up to a spoonable cocky during storage. Just an hour in the kitchen should take you from berries to sealed jars of delicious sauce. The sauce owe their try sheen, smooth tex- ture and appetizing real berry flavor to a unique combination of sweeteners and citrus enhancers. Corn syrup provides the sheen while orange or lemon juice and ped highlight the real fruit flavor in the not - too -sweet sauces. Berry Sauces Preparation: • Fill boiling water canner with water. Place 6 half- pint (250 mL) mason jars in *Cover, bring water to a boil; boil 10 minutes at altitudes up to 1,000 ft. to sterilize jars. At higher elevations, boil 1 more minute for each additional 1,000 ft. elevation. • In a large stainless steel saucepan, combine fresh or frozen berries, apple juice and orange or lemon peel. Heat gently, mashing ber- ries until mixture boils. • While maintaining a boil, gradually add sugar, stirr- ing until sugar is dissolved; gradually add corn syrup and orange or lemon juice.

Children can dress in 19th century costumes, play 19th century games, and make simple and safe toys on the green in front of the Town Hall. While clad in their old fashioned clothing, children can have their photograph taken for $2 each. The 19th century games include Courtiers, a game much like today's Simon Says, except Simon, in this case, is referred to as the King or Queen. The object of the game is to make the members of the court laugh. Those who laugh are banished from the court. However, if the King or Queen is caught laughing, he or she must abdicate the throne. Scandal, another game, mimics bow rumors are spread throughout a small village.

July 26. 1989 Bill Watt's Worlds IN PRINT: Television ( Random House) is a companion to the PBS television series. It's a handsome volume and most interesting to read. It is not, however, the definitive work that seems to be its aspiration. To be fair, one supposes that such a definitive work is simply not possible given continu- ing technological changes. Even so, author Michael Winship should have realiz- ed or at least recognized that television is not the sole proprietorship of the English speaking world. His work is actually rele- vant to television in North America with little or no at- tention to Canada and Mex- ico. Still, the book is en- joyable and worth one's custom. We suspect that most pleasure is derived from the photographs of personalities from the ear- ly days of the medium in the United States. Dave Garroway, Imogene Coca. Gertrude Berg. Al Jarvis, Buffalo ( sic I Bob Smith and so many others. Enjoyable, too. and in- teresting are the parts of the book dealing with the technical aspects of televi- sion including some most interesting comments on television makeup. The only error we could find was a reference to director Fred Timmerman rather than Zi nernan and that might have been a typo. Oh, and have a look at the photograph on page 263. Isn't the referee Jack Dempsey? And, if so, shouldn't a photo ident have been in order? We really do read every book we review, you know. Robert Silverberg's Worlds of Wonder ( Warner Books) has the sub title Ex- ploring the Craft of Science Fiction. It is actually three books in one. Primarily it is a collec- tion of 13 science fiction stories by masters of the craft and chosen personal- ly by Mr. Silverberg. Authors include Damon Knight, C.L. Moore, Henry Kuttner, C.M. Kornblu th and Frederick Pohl. His choice is obviously a sub- jective one and equally ob- viously so would ours have been had we been given a project of putting together such a selection. Having said that, we wonder at the exclusion of such as Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clark and Eando Binder. Possibly there are contract or copywrite difficulties but surely some mention should have been made of the quartet.

Even with the best of intentions it is specious for Mr. Silverberg to offer critiques, however, laudatory, of the selec- tions. Astute readers do not require his guidance. Neither do we require his ,autobiographical essay. It :is enough for one to know that Mr. Silverberg is an excellent writer in his own right; we do not need to know how he became so. Even so, we'd give anything to write as well as be and the other gentlemen here collected. One of the stories in Worlds of Wonder is Hothouse, about a time in the distant future when our solar system has become contaminated to the extent that mankind has been eliminated and only insect life survives. In Hothouse there is actually a web bet- ween the noon and Faith. The story is mentioned in Arthur C. Clark's introduc- tion to The Web Between the Worlds by Charles Sbef- f ield ( Del Rey Ballantine) . The Web is concerned with high-tech engineering of the future generally and specifically with the con- cept of joining satellites together by bridges for easier mining of ore. It's an intriguing concept and the book might have been a major triumph had not Mr. Sheffield tarted it up with a cockamamie sub plot and redundant characters. It's a good read, though. and as always lovers of science fiction can be tolerant. ART SEEN: We deplore the fact that the expression "I don't know much about art but I know what I like" has become a cbchb describing well intentioned but admit- tedly ignorant members of the boi polloi. It is a well worded at- tempt to be kind on the part of those who are not trained or educated in a particular discipline of the arts but who know that art in what ever form should be pleas- ing to the senses as well as the intellect. So we submit that the current exhibition at The Brownstone Hotel of Mar- jorie Moeser and Linda Kooluris Dobbs is or will be a successful one. We have little doubt either that in due course these works will become popular as prints. That isn't to denigrate but rather, to state that these bright, sunny works are offensive to no one and pleasing to all. If there is a message of intellectualism in them it has escaped this reviewer but that's unim- portant; what matters one supposes, is that they brighten a wall, any wall. Sanibel Serendibity, for example, from Miss Moeser's Hemingway's Pool presentation is an acrylic collage on paper that reminds one of a print one might purchase in Woolco. Miss Dobbs After- noon Siesta, Athens from the WalLwapes series is evocative of sunny Greece and displays some fine technical ability in the dif- ficult, albeit economical medium of water colours. Indeed both young ladies are technically adept and obviously oriented to the viewer who demands pleasure only. As such, we wish them well and are confident that success will be theirs. Still, somewhere along the way we hope each can find it within herself to decry commercial oppor- tunism and use God given talent in the creation of something, anything of substance. A cat sleeping on a win- dow ledge as in Afternoon Siesta, Athens is cute but then so is Garfield the cat. FASHION SCENE: Nice to see Buffalo undergoing a revival. Due to open in August is the Walden Galleria, a shopp- ing facility that has already attracted such names as Bobwit Teller, B. Altman, Ann Taylor and our own Harry Rosen. We're not sure how customs assessment works in the case of clothing but it seems to us that purchas- ing fine tailoring from Harry Rosen just might be more economical in Buf- falo than in Toronto. Certainly we'd rather spend a Saturday in Buf- falo than in the filthy mess that downtown Toronto is in danger of becoming. Why aren't the sidewalks being cleaned anymore? IN CONCERT: Two excellent pairings are on tap for listening and viewing pkasure. At Roy Thomson Har, Peter Allen and Bernadette Peters will be "together in performance" (clever phrasing) from Aug_ 4th through to the 8th. R.T.N. can sometimes be a cold setting for performers but these two top talents should certainly warm things up. Tomorrow evening The Forum in Ontario Place will present Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie. Hard to believe that Mr. Seeger is now 70 and that Arlo Guthrie's son (&M Woody Guthrie's grand- son!) travels with him when not occupied in his duties with Xavier, a heavy metal band. Woody Guthrie's grand- son in heavy metal? That's a belluva long way from One Meat Ball. Anyway, Seeger and Guthrie in con- cert is always a crowd pleaser. ON THE MOVE: Nice to hear from Tim Belch again. A few years ago Tim was a publicist at Ontario Place. Now he's senior publicist at the C.N.E. and we look forward to seeing him tomorrow at a luncheon of- fering a sneak preview of this year's Ex. CongratWa- tions Tim. COUNTDOWN: It's only eight weeks till the opening of Phantom of the Opera at the newly restored Pantages Theatre. RECORD NEWS: A Ray Bradbury short story of some years ago suggested that in the future North America would begin celebrating Christmas just after Labour Day. The future is now! From WEA comes word of the release of two Christmas albums in early September. One is Christmas in America with Kenny Rogers; the other is An Old Time Christmas with Randy Travis. The album cover for the latter was shot just outside Kite Festival At Ontario Science Centre The dream of flight has captured human imagim- tions for thousands of years. Leonardo da Vmci's dreams about fli& led to the invention of mechanical birds, wing - powered machines and kites. Leonanb's dreams and inventions will be extended with new flights of fantasy at the Ontario Science Cen- tre's 3rd annual Kite Festival, Jul. 30th through Aug. 5th. The kite festival is a highlight of Leonardo da Vinci: Engineer and Ar- chitect, a special travelling exhibition organized by the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and presented in co- operation with the Associa- tion of Professional Engineers of Ontario, Con- sulting Engineers of On- tario and UNICO Foods. Festival visitors can make two and three- dimensional kites, watch films and videos about flight, kite festivals, new kites, see demonstrations of kite construction, and meet Maurizio Angeletti, master Italian kitemaker. Weekly Nature Walks Weekly program offer- ings have been expanded for the summer at the Kor- tright Centre for Conserva- tion, near Kleinburg. Visitors can now take a guided nature walk Mon- day to Friday at 12 noon. The nature walks are presented by Kortright naturalists on a variety of themes, including wildlife habitat, wildflowers, and fish habitat. Each walk is approximately a half-hour in length. In addition, Kortright's beekeeping house is open to the public every Sunday afternoon throughout the summer. from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Visitors can talk to a beekeeper, see bees in the hive up close, and sam- ple fresh, natural honey. The demonstration is presented by the Toronto District Beekeepers of Kingston, Ontario during a tour earlier this year. We cannot accept in this instance that vox popEli, vox dei. Sorry.

The Mom's and Tot's" program at the Thorncliffe Neighbourhood Office offers a wonderful opportunity for mothers to get together for some friendly conversation while their young children play together in a safe and com- fortable atmosphere. On a recent visit to the Thorricliffe Neighbourhood Office, I enjoyed reading to the children and chatting with the mothers. all of whom were very pleas- ed with the program. Shaida, the program coordinator, points out that the program is very informal and she invites mom's and tot's to drop in anytime, Tuesday and Thursday between 9:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. and Friday between 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Ontario's New Youth Skills Programs Geared Towards Keeping Economy Competitive Ontario must continue to provide the leadership to build on our economic strengths to entire tomorrow's growth. A strong competitive economy is reliant on a skilled and literate work force to meet market challenges posed by new technology, changing demographics and changing global training pattern. Major initiatives totalling $6.6 million in apprenticeship training and other arrangements that combine education and on-the-job training were unveiled at Queen's Park by Skills Development Minister Alvin Curling. These initiatives are based in part on recent recommen- dation made in the "Pathways" report. This report details what happen to high school leavers and graduates once they enter the labour force. The Ministry's three new pro- grams are geared towards youth and are designed to preps young people for skilled occupation. In order to secure well -paying jobs and cope in a world of technological change and industrial restructuring, today's youth must become better acquainted with training option. The following programs are designed to give young peo- ple valuable exposure to a full-time employment environ- ment so they can participate more fully in the workplace of the future: Ontario Traineeship Program - The Trairteeship Program will allow young people who have already left high school to get into occupation which are needed in the marketplace. Trainees will spend bet- ween one and two years combining on-the-job training with shorter in -school training periods. - Traineeship will be designed to fit the requirements of par- ticular industries, Automotive, telecommuncation equip - marinade, if any remains.

Nigh School Apprenticeship Program - Senior high school students will be given the opportunity to train as an apprentice while attending high school. The students will have to be in at least grade eleven. At the end of three years, they will get their Ontario Secondary School diploma and two years credit towards their certification as a qualified journeyman. - This program was developed by the Ministry of Skills Development in partnership with the Ministry of Educa- tion, local school boards and chambers of commerce. Summer Trades Experience - Beginning in the summer of 1990, this program will allow employers who are already training apprentices to be eligi- ble for a one thousand dollar wage subsidy for each sum- mer student they hire as a trades' apprentice. - The goal of Summer Trades Experience is to let the students gain a better understanding of the world of skilled occupation. The new Youth Skills Program will provide a solid foun- dation for young people moving into rewarding careers. To- day's workplace places a high premium on basic, analytical and technical skills. These new measures will help ease the transition from shcool to work for the two,- thirds wo-thirds of our young people who do not go on to university or college when they leave high school. Rapid technological advances are changing the face of the workplace, and it is a fact of industrial life in Ontario that there are skills shortages. The Government of Ontano is committed to enuring that our workforce will be poised to meet the market challenges of tomorrow. Wed.

So f are the number of alcohol- related automobile and boating accidents. t While public awareness about drinking and driving tends to be very high around the Christmas holi- day period, statistics show that drinking drivers are 1 more likely to be involved in accidents in the sum- mer. About one-third of alcohol-related crashes oc- curred between June and i August whereas only 18% s took place December 1 through February 1986. to Aboutsix million On- tarians enjoy boating ac- tivities during the summer, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources. And more than 20% of boating deaths are linked to alcohol use. Ontario Provincial Police statistics show that 64 people were killed last year in boating acidents - 14 of the deaths were alcohol related. Over the course of a year, between oche -quarter and one-third of fatal automobile accidents in volve a driver who has been drinking. Forty per- cent. of drivers killed have been drinking. And weekends (Fridays 1 through Sundays) account or two-thirds of drinking drivers' accidents. According to the Addic- ion Research Foundation ARF) the safest approach is not to drink before driv- ing or boating. If you are going to drink ARF recom- mends that you consume ess than one drink per hour to stay safely below be.05% Blood alcohol Con- centration (BAC). st For example, a ale of 60 lbs. without food in the tomach and of average mriness, would only need drink about two -and -a - half standard drinks (one and one-half oz. liquoror fi ve oz. table wine or 12 oz. beer) in the first hour to each .05% blood alcohol concentration. That's the alcohol level at which police in Ontario can sus- pend a driver's licence for 12 hours. A female of 120 nus. would only have to drink about one -and -a -half standard drinks per hour to each the same concentra- tion.

The Equestrain Festival at Woodbine. Aug. 9th to 13th. offers an ouutstanc ing program of show jumping competition that will at- tract young pony club 'stars of the future' as well as many of Canada's top Olympic riders. Organised by a group of Toronto -area businesstnen, the festival is designed to attract :Metro families with lots of activity. good food, and an outstanding. ac- cessible location. Woodbine Racetrack, long heralded as the home of thoroughbred horse rac- ing in Canada, is the site of the country's most prestigious racing events. including the Queen's Plate, the Rothmian's Inter- national and the Molson Millions. This marks the fust time the venue will play host to an internationally recognized show jumping competition. 'AVID SOMERVIuE Time to Free Up Health Care Waiting lists for surgical and diagnostic procedures have gotten longer. services are being rationed and medical costs are rapidly increasing. The signs are unmistakable: Canada's health care system is seriously ill. Some contend that the proper cure is for governments to spend more money on health care. Others favour capping doctors' foes or putting them on salaries. Both these solutions, how- ever, have serious drawbacks. Governments have been increas- ing health care spending for years but demand for medical services continues to out pace supply. No matter how much is spent, it is never enough. The second option, while politically attractive, would succeed only in driving some of Canada's best doctors out of the country and others into a work -to -rule protest. Fortunately, other options do exist. In fact, three simple reforms, if introduced, would help to improve Canada's health care system without raising taxes or angering doctors. First, the government should de -criminalize private basic health insurance and allow the establishment of private hospitals. The resulting competition would bring about a drop in costs and increase the overall quality of health care. Canada is the only country in the western world that outlaws basic, private medical insurance. Some contend that if private medical insurance were allowed it would create a two tier sva=: one for the rich and one for the poor. Canada already has a two tier system, however. Those with the necessary means are now flying to the United States to pay for the kind of treatment they want in cash. The rest of Canadians have no option but to put up with long waiting lists and rationing. The second reform would be to make the waiting lists for sur- gical and diagnostic procedures public. These lists should then be monitored by an independent third party. Anyone who wants to jump the queue should have to justify it medically. This reform would prevent those with power and influence from forcing their way to the head of the line and might just focus our politicians' minds on the need for health care reforms. Third. Canada's health care system would benefit if the government contracted out the management of public hospitals. Experience shows that this measure improves medical care and makes it far more effective. Canada's health care system may be sick, but it can still be saved. All it needs is a good dose of competition. (David Somerville as president of The Notional Citizens' Coalition.) Page 8 THE NEWS POST Wed.

Nominees are judged on the following criteria: 1) innovation - be it in the company's product, ser- vice production process, marketing strategy, etc. 2) operating success - which includes sales, growth pro- spects for the future, employment creation, quick acceptance in the marketplace and 3) com- munity involvement - the participation of the en- trepreneur in charitable work. service clubs and development work on behalf of raising awareness of business. Consideration will also be given to the en- trepreneur's age at start- up, unique problems or challenges the company was able to face and over- come, longevity of the business, etc. A total of twelve awards will be presented - one for each province and ter- ritory. In addition, there will be four district winners - one for Northern Ontario, Southwestern Ontario, Eastern Ontario and Greater Metropolitan Toronto area. These win- ners will be submitted as the finalists in the province -wide competition. Provincial / Territorial winners will be presented with their awards at the National Launch of Small Business Week in Mon- treal. Entrepreneurs can enter themselves in the contest, or can be nominated by others. Anyone interested in enter- ing a young entrepreneur should contact their local FBDB branch. All candidates will be reviewed by a committee comprised of FBDB representatives, en- trepreneurs, business leaders and business associations. Deadline for entries is Aug. 10, 1989.

The Board seriously questions the need for such committees or time-consuming meetings in small businesses. Certified employee representatives on such committees are given the authority to issue direc- tions to stop work. Abuse is clearly possible in the con- text of union negotiations or when a certified employee is subject to ivy peer pressure. These situations cannot be avoid- ed and will lead to un- necessary stopspect pages - an employer effectively stopp- ing such events by threatening to seek decer- tification before a joint body is low. Indeed, it is not far-fetched to suggest that employees could violate their collective ants by conducting "safety" strikes. Comments Regarding Bio IV- An Act to Amend the Workers' Compensation Act. Bin 162 proposes substan- tial amerdrnents to the compensation system for workers who are per- mantrntly impaired as a result of work-related in- juries. The Board recorn- mends a number of changes to the amended Bill relating to the alter- nate dispute resolution pro- cesses, re-employment obligations and appeals, and the non -economic loss and pension supplement provisions. Pearson Airport's Damag- ing Impact on Business On May 26, 1989 The Board sent a letter asking members to write directly to The Board on their ex- periences and problems at Pearson Airport. The vast majority of the responses were in support of stated Board policies and contained two recurr- ing themes; first, that con- ditions at Pearson discourage business meetings in Toronto and detract from Toronto's reputation as a world class city, and secondly, that, in an era of free trade, Toron- to must be competitive. Comments Supporting the Retention of Buttonville Airport In a letter to the Federal Minister of Transport, The Board urges the retention of the Buttonville Airport. Buttonvitle Airport plays a key role in the airport system of Southern Ontario serving both general avia- Wed.

In particular, the propos- ed Commercial Concentra- tion Levy and Employee Health Levy have serious ramifications for the com- petitiveness of Ontario businesses and should not be implemented as presently conceived, The Board warns. Neither levy will have a fair application and both may be turned in- to "cash cows" for the Pro- vincial treasury as the levy rate is increased in future yem- The Board also expresses concern over the potential high cost and stapectibility to abuse of subsidy pro- grams to support the ex- pansion of "threshold" companies in Ontario. as have been recommended by the Premier's Council. The Board otherwise ex- presses support for the Budget's initiatives in the areas of education, retrain- ing, literacy, social assistance reform, transportation im- provements and public sec- tor pension reform. Response to the Ontario Transportation Capital Program In response to the recent- ly announced tit billion Transportation capital Program for the province, the Board, while generally supportive of the need for more money to be spent on transportation infrastruc- ture, expresses concern that not enough monies were being allocated to where the congestion pro- blem is most severe, the downtown core of Metro Toronto. In addition, The Board recommends that spending under the Capital Program be in addition to the regular capital spen- ding of the Ministry. The Transportation Committee will monitor the implemen- tation of this Program to ensure results promised by the Ministry. 1989 Federal Post -Budget Submission While The Board ex- presses support for the move toward better targeting of social benefits such as the family allowance and old age security pensions, it ex- presses concern over the disproportionate focus on foreign aid and defence for expenditure cutbacks. The Board also expresses dismay at the continuing dependence of the govern- ment on tax increases rather than expenditure reductions to control the deficit, a situation which can only have negative con- sequences for com- petitiveness of Canadian industry. On tax matters, The Board recommends the following: The Federal Sales Tax increase be deferred, the Goods and Services Tax be im- ple ie rated rapidly. the new Large Corporations Tax be repealed. and that the in - other countries including the United Kingdom and Trinidad. :..................:.....:::ff ......................... comes of married couples be aggregated in the deter- mination of the family allowance and old age pen- sion clawbacks. The Board also presents some recommendations for improving the budget pro- cess which would eliminate the perceived necessity for budget secrecy. BRIDLEWOOD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 2501 warden Ave. Rev.

There's plenty of time to plan an agricultural theme holiday or getaway. The many options available in- clude fairs, farm vaca- tions, the Ontario Agricultural Museum or an afternoon of fruit picking at one of Ontario's many pick - your -own farms. Ontario's 230 agricultural fairs are an excellent opportunity to ex- perience the excitement of agriculture. The majority of the fairs are held from mid-August to mid-October and vary in length from one day for smaller faits. to 20 days for the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition. Livestock showing and judging, crafts, local and professional entertainment are some of the events that complement the unique nature of each fair.

In last week's article, I discussed some of the events that I have had the opportunity to attend in Ontario riding over the post month. This week, I would like to continue with this theme. Ground breakings. and opening ceremonies often keep me occupied in Ontario Riding. East Hamptons Condominiums held their official ground breaking party on June 4th. This low rise condominium, will be located in Ajax on Beautiful Lake Ontario. It is always a pleasure to lend a shovel. On Tues. Julie 6th, i had the pleasure of attending the opening ceremonies of David Brown Gear Industries Inc. of Pickering. 1 believe that this new plant exemplifies the positive effect that Free Trade is having on Canada. On June 9th, Sandoz Canada officially celebrated the opening of their newly expanded quality assurance and pro- duction facilities in Whitby. Sandoz has underlined Bill C-22, this government's drug patent legislation. as being a positive influence on their decision to expand. It was indeed enjoyable attending these ceremonies in which government policy played a direct role in enhancing the Ontario Riding economy. The official opening of the Wood Farm Mawr in Whitby, took place on Fri. June 23rd. The Durham Regan Non - Profit dousing Corporation sponsored this excellent effort to provide affordable housing for families. I attended the ceremony and extended congratulations to both Canada HOST FAMILIES URGENTLY NEEDED!

The library's main floor administration area will be redesigned to improve ac- commodations for the col- lection. An adjacent office area will also be renovated, and equipped with the file, disc and vault storage space needed to provide ef- ficient services to a grow- ing community. The Oshawa Public library system currently ranks seventh in circula- tion per capita among Canada's large urban public libraries. Six Queen's Park Report from Noah Stoner MPP Durham West Changes to the Ontario Farm Tax Rebate Program for 1999 were recently announced by the Minister of Agriculture, the Hon. Jack Riddell. As in the past, the program will be targeted to property owners whose gross farm production income was at least 85,000 in Northern and Eastern Ontario and 88,000 in other parts of the province. The Minister has said that the farm tax rebate program is alive and well with the amount available up to 8140 million in 1989, compared to less than $100 million in 1985 at the time when the administration of this province changed. Modifications to be made in 1999 will target those whose main occupation is farming. Rebates will be paid only on properties which are farmed, at least in part, by the owner. The rebate will be reduced by five percent for every $1,000 of owner's off -farm income in excess of $40,000 when there is only one property owner or 860,000 when there are two or more property owners. An in- terim payment will not be made in 1999. Instead of two payments, there will be a single payment in the fall. Existing gross production value criteria still apply. Gross production value is defined as total farm sales plus or minus changes in inventory, minus the cost of purchased feed or livestock. Retired farmers and their spouses, spouses of deceased farmers, individuals who have been required to reduce pro- duction due to illness and farmers who rent farm parcels to their own farm operations will. be eligible to receive benefits under the program. "We have taken into consideration these special categories of people who have dedicated their lives to the agricultural industry in Ontario. Their contribution to the industry has been significant and the program continues to reflect this," Riddell said. Applications and brochures will be mailed to all potential- ly eligible property owners in mid-September, 1989. Local Update: A new booklet is now available for our con- stituency office from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Called Agricultural Faros and Exhibitions 1989 this booklet provides information on dates and the locations of Agricultural faits and exhibabo s in Ontario. Also available is a booklet from the !Ministry of Natural Resources with in- formation regarding Ontario's Provincial Parks. Booklets are available from the constituency office.

Haug Industries Limited of Ajax held a reception on June 23rd. for the Mayor of Weirton, West Virginia and Gus Suokas, Director of Econonuc and Community Develop- ment. On June Idth, we cooked up a storm at the Rotary Pan- cake Breakfast. My motto has always been, have spatula will travel. I hope that everyone who participated in the Vox Pop Forums found there as informative and thought provoking as I did. The last installment of my Vox Pop Forum before the summer. took place on June 23rd, at the Whitby Public Library. The issues of the day were covered and some ex- cellent discussion was achieved, although a little less vocal than the previous debate on the budget. Canada Day certainly proved to be a busy time. on July 1st, I participated in the annual Pickering Pride festival. The people of Pickering amaze me every year by outdoing the previous year's celebration. The Canada Day celebrations in Ottawa were no match for the festivities that tool[ place at my constituency office in Ajax. There were lots of balloons for the kids and holdings and pop for everybody. 1 would like to thank the 800 plus people who participated in the July 1st revelry in Ontario Riding. I hope to see you next year. FOOD MARKET Hwy. 2 Rouge Hills just east of Rouge Bridge New Crop Maple Syrup 4 Litre 46.99 2 Litre 26.99 1 Litre 14.99 500 mL 8.99 375 mL 7.99 250 mL 5.99
