Membership of the com- mittees is, like that of coun- cil. reflecting a balance of consumer members and those working or volunteer- ing in health services. All members live in Durham Region. "I am particularly delighted with the strong interest of consumers on the council and commit- tees, " she said. "In our job of advising Health Minister Elinor Caplan we are com- mitted to ensuring that the interests of the total com- munity are represented... Members of council and its committees do not represent any particular organization or interest. Although drawn from throughout the district, members are required to consider the interests of the entire region to ensure that optimal health is attained for its residents, within resources available. Membership on the health council standing committees is disbanded each June. Committees are reformed over the summer months to include the re- quired balance of con- sumer and provider representatives. As always. the selection of members was difficult. Cotancil has four "pro- gram area.. committees - acute care, community health, mental health and log term care and one "administrative" commit- tee - executive - all repor- ting directly to council. Membership on each committee is comprised of a chairman who is a member of council, in- terested council members, and a variety of consumers and providers from the community. The "Acute Care Com- mittee" has the mandate to deal with issues such as acute hospital care, emergency health ser- vices, tertiary care and some primary care. Com- mittee members to June 1990 are: Janice Dusek (Ajax), Chairman; Dr. Robin Davies (Oshawa), Council; Cal Muckle (Port Perry), CounciPretired businessman; Betty Schaefer (Ajax), Council; Susan MUnderwood (Oshawa), Coun- cil teacher; Bob Ham- mond (Whitby), businessman; consumer; Eric Hanna (Whitby), hospital administration; David McKay (Ajax), Lawyer, consumer; Leo Plue (Oshawa), vice- porincipal ,, consumer; and Ruth Powell (Oshawa), consumer, homemaker. The "Commuri ty Health Committee'' has the man- date to deal with issues such as health promotion, public health, community health, etc. Committee members to June 1990 are: Sandy Collins ( Uxbridge) , chairman; Howard Hall ( Port Perry), Coun- cil mayor; Brian Nicholson ( Oshawa) , Coun- cil councillor; Gwen Toaze (Oshawa), Council con- sumer, Pat Barnicott (Wilmot Creek) , con- sumer; Rita Galinauskas (Oshawa), AIDS coor- dinator at the Health Department; Susan Hen- dricks (Newcastle), medical librarian con- sumer; Sandra Manuel (Oshawa), Mental Health Durham; Lynn Pilkington (Oshawa), Addiction Research Foundation; Evylin Stroud (Bowman- ville), clerk consumer; and Penny Waller (Bowmanville), interior decorator! consumer.

This donation is designated specifically towards a new labour'delivery room for the hospital. The hospital currently has 127 beds and 24 bassinets and is looking to an expansion which will add 115 more beds. One of the most severely strained departments in the hospital is maternity. Last year, the small maternity department, built to accommodate 465 births per year, saw over 1400 newborns. In the hospital's plans for the ex- pansion, a new Maternity Department is being designed with state-cf-the- art labour/delivery rooms which enables the mother to labour and deliver in the same room. This is an attractive feature as it allows family members to be present dur- ing labour and keeps the mother from having to be moved during the birth of her child. Currently the Maternity Department has three labour rooms and two delivery rooms. With dona- tions such as Bramalea's generous gift, the hospital will look to having possibly six labour I delivery rooms. Bell Canada Contributes Heavily To Pickering Area In 1989, Bell Canada spent 52,061,000 on cable for the new subdivision west of Alton Rd. and other im- provements for the 16,478 customers in the South Pickering exchange. As well, Bell paid $790,8D1.62 in municipal taxes. This included $19,189.27 in Real Estate tax, $5,603.55 in Business tax, and $766,006.80 in Gross Receipts tax. Another S=136,778.70 was spent on payroll expenses for the 742 Bell employees in the Oshawa area. The Gross Receipts tax is set at 5% of all telecom- munications revenue from Bell operations in Ontario in the preceding year. The amount apportioned to each exchange is based on the number of Bell telephones in use. In 1988, this was $30.41 per Newman (Pickering), businessman i consumer; and Elizabeth Taylor ( Port Perry) consumer. The"Executive Commit- tee" has a mandate to deal only with administrative issues relating to finance, personnel, nominations, council membership, public relations, etc. Membership is comprised of council members who are not chairmen of stan- ding committees. Commit- tee members to June 1990 are: Tom Mangan (Beaverton), chairman; Susan Bland (Oshawa), student; Joe Butson (Whit- by), business manager; and Betty Schaefer ( Oshawa) . There is one vacancy yet to be filled. Catherine Hilge, as Chairman of Council, is an ex -officio member of each committee. telephone. In addition, in AN Bell spent a total of $2.2 billion an capital improvements. Of this, $1.4% billion was spent in Ontario. The forecast for 1989 is $2.3 billion, with $1.387 billion to be spent in Ontario. Local improvement highlights in 1988 include $2,061,000 spent on placing cable for the new subdivi- sion west of Altona Rd., north of Twyn Rivers, the Pickering Town Centre ex- pansion, the Parkway Co- operative on Finch, and the Tridel condominiums at Valley Farm and Hwy. 2, including building conduit on Twyn Rivers and Shep- pard west of Altona, relocating facilities on White's Rd. and Liverpool Rd. to accommodate road wont, and installing digital carrier, analogue transmission, a-od power equipment in the South Pickering switching cen- tre. Local plans for 1989 in- clude $2,896,000 to be spent on placing cable for a new subdivision north of Twyn Rivers, for the Bramalea, John Boddy, and Coughlin subdivisions, for the Valley Farm and Hwy. 2 Tridel condominiums, and for in- dustrial and commercial projects on Whites Rd. and Brock Rd. The plans also include a building conduit on Twyn Rivers west of Altona, on Altona north of Waterford Gate, and on Woodview, placing fibre optic cable from the South Pickering switching centre to the Brock Rd. industrial area, and installing fibre optic, digital carrier, and other equipment in the South Pickering switching cen- tre.

Sept. 6, 1989 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Ban These Strikes The current ITC strike of workers and the pending possi- ble strike of postal workers emphasizes once again the ridiculous system we have in our country for dealing with labour management relations. Surely the public is fed up with suffering great inconve- nience and actual economic losses because someone else has a complaint with his or her boss. And also surely union employees sitting on picket lines for weeks on end losing money is not a worker's idea of fun! The ITC strike is down to one issue apparently. It seems that most union workers do not want to work overtime any more and so when the TTC wants extra buses for rush hour or special traffic, they can't get drivers. So the manage- ment wants to hire part time drivers to handle what the union brothers do not want to do. In our opinion we don't understand why the union doesn't get an agreement which gives their members first priority on overtime work and then management can hire part timers. Strange. too, for we understand that this same union in the United States allows part time workers. Now the postal union is making noises like it will strike for its next contract. In this case when and if the workers strike the effect of the strike is felt by small business and the public generally - and not by management. which will get its pay regardless of the union. So we feel that a postal strike or a TTC strike should not be allowed by law. Let ar- bitration deal with the differences in relations and let the public - for a change - rat pay the cost of a strike! Write your MP or MPP and give your opinion! To The Prime Minister Dear Prime Minister: I am writing an open letter to you on a matter of signifi- cant social and economic policy. As currently defined, the Goods & Services Tax will apply to electricity. In today's society. electricity has become a necessity like water. food and inedical services, all of which are to be excluded. Low cost electricity has played a major role in this coun- try's economic development. As trade barriers are lowered we need to retain our advantages. As an elected Commissioner in North Yost, I am concern- ed for the customers I am elected to serve, and for the businesses which make our community healthy. As Chair- man of the Municipal Electric Association. I know that over LOW other local utility commissioners in Ontario are equal- ly concerned. Electricity should not be taxed. Municipal Electric Association Chairman Carl Anderson Correction Dear Sir: Re: "What Metro Councillors Spent in Last Election (23 8 89 ) by Gay Abbate It appears that some vital information was inadvertently omitted from the recent article that revealed the election spending by candidates vying for Metro Council seats. Gay Abbate observed that there were extremes with respect to election spending and used Couuicillor Morrish and myself as examples of candidates who ran a '-shoestr- ing campaign' She found that Councillor Morrish raised 52,850.00 in election funds while spending only $225.00 on his campaign. In my campaign. I spent a total of $1.539.97 which was all my own funds. What did not appear in the ar- ticle was the fact that Mr. Morrish won his seat by acclama- tion. whereas I did not. Secondly, the writer stated that Councillor Morrish and myself ..got away with spending so little" because of the name recognition. Gay Abbate failed to mention a very im- portant fact in her article. It should also have been con- sidered that up until the last election I had not held a political seat for the past six years. Bearing that informa- tion in mind. one could not conclude that I won simply on my name recognition. I feel that constituents should know how much each politi- cian raised and spent for their campaigns: however. I also feel that conclusions on why they won should not be based on inaccurate or misrepresented information. Yours truly.

Sept. 7th at 1 p.m. The Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada recommended that the Minister of the Environment, responsible for the Canadian Parrs Service recognize the building for its national architectural significance. The Royal Alexandra was built in 1906-1907 in the tradi- tional 19th century theatre style. At the time. it had the distinction of being the world's first fully fireproof theatre and the first to be air-conditioned- In addition, it was the first cantilevered theatre in North America. In 1963, Ed Mirvish saved the Royal Alexandra from demolition and refurbished it into a theatre that plays a central role in Toronto's social and cultural life. Door Hanger Cards Help Reach Customers Many of Ontario Hydro's forestry groups are now using hanging cards to pass along valuable information to their customers about tree trimming and removal practices. Terry King, Environment Supervisor in Hydro's Georgian Bay Region, says that their forestry crews always consult with the customer before any trees are removed or excessively trimmed, but residents are not always available. "If we can't speak with the customer in person, at least we can relay information by means of the door hangers,". King says. The hangers have a protective coating to help weather the elements, and open to explain Hydro's tree removal and trimming practices. A pouch inside the folder contains the pamphlet ..Keeping The Trees", which explains Hydro's tree replacement program. Also inside is a card for customers to sign acknowledging the work that will be done on their property. Foresters do not proceed with any removal or trimming until this approval is obtained. The back panel of the hanger lists phone numbers to call for fur- ther information, or to express concerns. daughter Darlene, son Greg who was unable to attend and their grandson Neil.

Ted Pledge ( brother) and hs wife Gertrude of Saint John and their daughter Rita were there. From Montreal, Margaret's nephew Roy Ougler and her nephew from Toronto Robert Ougler, Bernice and son Mark also were present. Long time friends Gordon and Mary Nicoll, Hilda O'Brady and Karen MacDonald and a very special guest, 95 -year old Elizabeth Kemp came to celebrate. Special certificates were receive from the MP of their constituency. Neil Young, Premier David Peterson and Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. A very special letter was received from Stan Darling. MP of Burks Falls. Many phone calls, cards and gifts were received as well. After a lovely meal and cake, Mr. & Mrs. Pledge both made moving speeches that will be remembered by their family for a great many years to come.

Credit Card Costs Canadian consumers spent over $165 billion on goods and services in 1968. Many of them used their credit cards to make these purchases. Studies show, however, that only half of these consumers usually pay off their credit card balances in full each month. In December 1988, for in- stance, consurners were carrying over $10 billion in credit card balances. If the trend in credit card use continues, this figure could reach $12 billion by December 1989. The costs associated with credit cards are varied and complex. Some cards involve per -transaction charges or an annual fee as well as interest charges. The interest rate, "grace period" or date from which interest is computed, and other aspects of the interest calculation determine the amount of interest charged. To identify the lowest -cost credit card, individuals must take into account their pur- chase and payment habits. Darlington Construction Wins President's Award Darlington Nuclear Generating Station Construction has won the Ontario Hydro President's Safety Award for the se- cond year in a row. One of the main criteria for receiving the award is a reduction in the severity of accidents, as measured by the length of time individuals need to recover from accidents on the job. The "severity factor" was reduc- ed by over 25 per cent from 1987 to 1968. Darlington Con- struction staff have worked over 50 million man-hours without a fatality since construction began in 1977.

Annual Terry Fox Run The ninth annual Terry Fox Run for cancer research, expected to be the largest yet, will take place on Sun. Sept. 17th at more than 450 run sites across Ontario. The Ontario campaign has set an ambitmus goal of raising at least $2.4 million but Breeda McClew. On- tario Provincial Director. is undaunted by the challenge. "Last year, people in On- tario generously con- tributed mo a than one third of the total $5.9 million raised by The Terry Fox Run in Canada," she explained "And we expect to raise more money this year, especially through donations. We've changed the pledge sheet so people who can't come out on run day can still use it to send in a donation... Although Terry Fox died of cancer in 1951, his im- age. as he courageously ran across Canada on one leg, is as powerful today as ever and his dream to rind a cure for cancer coo- tim3es. The run has grown steadily each year. Inst year, some 90,000 par- ticipants in Ontario raised over $2 million for cancer research, a 27% increase from the year before. Since 1950, when Terry Fox began his Marathon of Hope, The Terry Fox Run has generated nearly $75 million for cancer research. The money is ad- ministered by the National Cancer Institute of Canada and funds special pro- grams and research pro- jects searchng for a cancer cure. People of all ages, shapes and sizes can run, walk, jog or wheel the five to ten kilometer course on Sun. Sept. 17th. Run sites are generally open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. but participants should check local listings or contact the Ontario Terry Fox Run office at 1-800-387-1200 for times.

Sept. 6, 1669 Bill Watt's Worlds IN PRINT: Much is being made in the media, and rightly so, that this week marks the 50th anniversary of the start of World War 11. One rejoices that five decades have passed without the predicted World War 111; one worries, however, that with the passage of time and with continued pro- sperity in the western world, many will forget about the war and, what's worse, why it was fought. This must not happen' Yours is under no illusion about any possible in- fluence this column might have upon its readers but do allow us to commend to your attention what is, we believe, the best book we have read about those years between 1939 and 1945. It is World War 11. The Untold Story by Philip Warner (Godley Head. Released in Canada by Random House) . The title, about which more later, could be just a mite sensational but the book most certainly isn't. Without in the least way be- ing dry, it is a factual nar- rative of the events that lead up to the war and how the war was fought ... with appropriate kudos, where due, to all participants. Without, we hope over- working a clichd, the book is compelling reading from Don Valley Chaos WANTED Women who enjoy singing.

It is only 290 pages in length but such is the skill of the author that this relatively slim volume might well serve as the ultimate work on the War. Philip Warner is a senior lecturer at Sandhurst and so he writes with authority for both the militarist and the scholar in a manner that holds others who simp- ly wish to know more about the six years of war. We promised a comment about the sensational title. Untold really refers to what was untold during the war. Mostly the fact that both sides were intercep- ting the other's com- munications but not always cuing them wisely. For example, the Ger- man General Rommel was a true field commander who knew that staff head- quarters could not always be relied upon. So even when his supplies were at least adequate he word badger high command for more. The signals were in- tercepted by the British who could not understand why their North African troops were not making significant progress against the perceived poor- ly equipped enemy. Almost as a direct result, the British generals Wavell and Auchinleck ( the latter, a brilliant tactician, at least the equal of Rommer ) were removed and the op• portu nistic Montgomery brought in. That's just one cif the many "untold" stories in this fine book, a book which when read by people of astuteness will keep alive the meats by which to pre- vent wars or win them should they be inevitable. Mother book commend- ed to attention is Comman- do Extraordinary by Charles Foley (Special Forces Library -Grafton Books -Coffins). This is the story of Otto Skorzeny. Chief of Special Troops for Germany. Herr OKTOBEAFEST AT THE GUILD INN Join us at the Guild Inn and celebrate OKTOBERFEST in our BEER GARDEN PATIO 8 P.M. r 1 a.m. Fri.

No one could ever tell him that any mission was Impossible. He could ex- amine a problem minutely and then employ the very best of men, including himself, to follow through his frequently ingenious solutions. Among civilians he is probably best remembered as the man who "rescued'. Mussolini when the latter had lost power. This was just one of many of his ex- ploits. Truth to tell, the book reads rather more like a cracking good adven- ture story than a biography of an inspired soldier. Probably the most amaz- ing thing about the exploits of Skoneny is that his M. 0. was based on lessons he had learned from - are you ready for this? - the British; methods which they had dismissed as im- practical'. Readers will be taken, too. by Skorneny's conclu- sions about the Russian soldier; be is fundamental- ly oriental with a tempera- ment that can withstand privation until a battle is won. One must employ guerrilla methods to defeat him; methods which the western world is too fre- quently reluctant to employ. Do more than simply meditate this ween about the horrors of war; read either or both of these ex- cellent books and do somnething about preven- ting them. STILL IN PRINT: Far and away the greatest defence against the recurrence of wars is knowledge; far and away the best source of knowledge is literacy. How pleasant then to an- nounce that 1990 has been declared International Literacy Year. In celebration, Harbour - front is presenting the premiere of Reading the Signs, a literacy play pro- duced by World literacy of Canada and Young People's Theatre. The play will eventually be performed in a minimum of 250 Canadian centres. Reading the Signs uses rap, country and western and rock music to portray the lives of four young people whose per- sonal goals are compromis- ed by their lack of literacy skills. The premiere perfor- mances are Sept. 9th, loth and 11th at the duMaurier Theatre Centre. Call the Harbourfront box office or the Ontario Literacy Coali- tion at 963-5787 for ticket in- formation. During September - Ban- ned Book Month - Ballan- tine is reissuing many of the books that are still be- ing pulled from book shelves across the country, in a call to stop in- discriminate censorship in our society. One of them is Ordinary People banned in Ohio and challenged in New York because "its topic -teenage suicide -was too intense for tenth graders". Others are Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 - imagine! and Working by Studs Terkel. Well done Ballantine. Let's keep tenth graders from becoming second raters. DINNER THEATRE: Some will dismiss Your Place or Mine, presently playing at Stage West as a piece of fluff. Others will consider it well nigh perfect dinner theatre entertainment. We regard it as somewhere in bet- ween. Heaven knows the theme, that of widowed or otherwise unmarried in- laws living with their children while disliking one another - is a familiar one. (We first encountered it in Cronin's The Green Years). Heaven knows too that Your Place or Mine is not an intellectual gem, nor is it so intended although our rough notes scribbled dur- Ing Act 1 say Oscar Wilde with the gloves Off ... and just as wild. Still, it is undeniably amusing and at some point even funny. Jesse White (yes, The Maytag man) is a recent widower living with his daughter (Catherine Bar - roll) and her husband (Peter James Haworth). His son-in-law's mother (Bharbara Egan) comes to live with them also. The two have disliked each other for years and still do. Yet, on a night when son and daughter are away from the house - hav- ing the first grandchild - and during a frightening storm they come to ... well, see for yourself.

The parts are conve- niently played thanks to the easy writing of Marshall Karp and the casual direc- tion of Janet Wright. A nice light comedy with a soupqon of insight viewed after an excellent dinner in the congenial surroundings of Stage West is a more than pleasant way to spend an evening. Should we, can we say more'.' We think not. ON STAGE: Just a reminder that Le Don des Etoiles is on tonight at The O'Keefe. There just might be a few tickets left for this ex- cellent evening of dance on behalf of the Variety Club. Opening tomorrow at The O.K. is Evita. It will run only until the weekend and is well worth one's custom no matter how many times it has played here before. Apart from anything else, with Webbermania now firmly entrenched in the city because of Phanton of the Opera just around the corner, an evening with Evita is a fine introduction to those who just might as yet be unfamiliar with the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber. See you there. ON RECORD: Also beginning tomorrow is the Festival of ( film ) Festivals. One of the at- tractions is to be the motion picture Johnny Handsome.

Great Golf On Florida's Lee Island Coast Remained for its golden beaches, excellent fishing and some of the best shell- ing in the world, Florida's Lee Island Coast also has plenty to offer the golfer. With 20 public courses this area has more golf holes per capita than almost any other place in the country. At least one researcher is prepared to confirm that statement. John F. Rooney. a geography pro- fessw at Oklahoma State University, has determined that Lee Canty has more public golf holes per capita than anywhere else in the U.S.A., with one hole for every 710 residents. Joe Much, executive director of the National Golf Foundation, believes a number five ranting is a more accurate estimate, but the fact remains that this part of Florida has an abundance of golf courses. That abundance, combin- ed with pleasurable weather - an average an- nual temperature of 73.3 degrees, which makes for 365 potential golf days - and the variety of courses make Lee County and the city of Fort Myers a veritable golfing haven. "It's great place to be whether you're a golfer or not," said Rich Lamb, head professional at Eastwood Golf Course in Fort Myers. "Price -wise, it's outstan- ding.

Dated at Scarborough, 6th day of September, 1989. J. W. Nigh City Clerk 150 Borough Drive Scarborough, Ontario M1P4N7 Wed. Sept. 6, 1989 THE NEWS/POST Page 11 Will Recommend Market Value Re -assessment by Gay Abbate Metro should adopt market value re- assessment but put a 100% freeze on tax increases for five years, Metro's task force on tax reform has recommended. Those entitled to decreases in taxes (62% of Metro homeowners) will receive their reductions if the task force's recommen- dations are adopted. Upon re -sale, properties with in- creases would have to pay the higher taxes. The task force's recom- mendations will go to Metro's executive commit- tee on Friday and the full council will debate it on Sept. 13. The market value assess- ment scheme would assess all properties in Metro on the 1984 value. Presently, newer homes pay substan- tially more in property taxes than do older homes even though they have the same today's market value. Older homes are assessed on their 1940 value. Market value re- assessment has been get- ting mixed reviews from citizens across Metro Toronto. In the City of Toronto, where the majori- ty of residents would have to pay more taxes, the response predictably was against the scheme. But in North York and East York where the ma- jority would get decreases (70.1% and 77.696), those heard from are mainly those getting increases. In East York's public meeting, for instance, the audience was made up Will You Pay More Taxes Or Less? will you pay more or less property taxes if Metro Council approves market value assessment? The 1984 assessments for all properties are now public and individual assessments can be obtain- ed by calling either your Metro or local councillor. Once you have the new assessment figure, you can then determine how much you will be paying by Borough of East York following a simple formula. East York residents would multiply the new assessment by .324, North York residents by .337 and Scarborough residents multiply by .352. Some Scarborough residents who got their assessment figures at last week's public meeting at the civic centrewere told to multiply their new assess- ment by .369.

Extend A Family Week Joyce Trimmer, Mayor of Scarborough, has declared Sept. 18th to 24th "Extend -A -Family Week". Extend -A -Family is a community group which creates opportunities for relationships between peo- ple with handicaps and others in their area. People with handicaps often are in a situation where outside their own "Family Unit" they find it difficult to socialize, work or play. This organization assists people to link up with one another to build the friend- ships which create a strong sense of community. Extend -A -Family was begun 15 years ago in Toronto by a group of parents who wanted to ex- tend their children's con- nections in the community beyond their families. With funding from the Ministry of Community and Social Services, Extend -A -Family hires co-ordinators who help to encourage and sup- port new friendships, and has expanded from that first group into 18 com- munities across Ontario, involving both adults and children. As part of Extend -A - Family Week, Scarborough is inviting members of the community to submit designs for a Extend -A - Family crest. The design should be sub- mitted on 9 by 12 paper, in- clude the words Extend -A - Family, depict friendship and use the colours Royal Blue and Grey. All submissions should be sent to' Extend -A - Family Scarborough, 2474 Kingston Rd., Scar- borough Ont. MIN 1V3, by Sept. 30th For further infor- mation, call 267-7826. This is the figure to be us- ed if Scarborough Council had adopted option 2 of market value assessment which adjusts all classes with the same mill rate. Most Metro municipalities went with this option but Scarborough Council chose a different scheme which allows for a greater decrease for homeowners. The figure to use for this option is the .352. Seniors' Club Open House West Scarborough Seniors Club is holding its annual open house on Tues. Sept. 12th from I to 3:30 p.m. at the West Scar- borough Neighbourhood Community Centre, 313 Pharmacy Ave. All seniors 55 years of age and over are invited to participate in an exciting afternoon of demonstra- tions, refreshments and friendship, and, if they wish, register for a pro- gram. mainly of Leaside residents where 78.5 per- cent will get tax hikes. Scarborough was the on- ly municipality where residents supported re- assessment and urged task force members to imple- ment it as soon as possible. But while the majority of the 500 who turned out for the Scarborough meeting last Wednesday were in favour, some were opposed saying it would drive seniors out of their homes. Senior Ruth Lune] said she cannot afford the $200 more in taxes she will have to pay under re- assessment. `You're tell- ing me I will have to sell my home to keep myself alive," she told the task force. Pat Martim, who has fought for several years for property tax reforms, said all Scarborough residents are asking for is that the system be fair and equitable. "It's a reasonable request. Everyone should pay their share of the tax burden... Scarborough taxpayers will save a total of $18.7 million under re- assessment. This figure in- cludes all residential, apartments, commercial and industrial classes. For :North York the sav- ings would be $34 million and for East York $7.3 million. These savings will be offset by the City of Toronto's 598.4. million in - '.Market value assess- ment is designed not to in- crease the total amount of tax revenue collected for school boards and local and Metro government 153.2 million) but to redistribute it Page 12 THE POST Wed.

Sept. 6 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. SCOLTS REGISTRATION This group is having its registration on Wed. Sept. 6th at the Pod Lobby, Ajax Community Centre from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m - LADIES' BROOMBaiLL from grades one to six focusing on the development of literacy, analytical and communication skills. For the Transition Years, grades seven to nine, the goverment will ensure a core curriculum that emphasizes the develoip- ment of basic skills and progressive problem -solving. Streaming in grade nine will be eliminated. To ensure that the Specialization Years, grades ten to twelve, build on the foundation of acquired learning skills, technological educa- tion will be updated and teaching equipment renewed. This will be undertaken in partnerships with business, labour and communities. Over the next three years $1.1 billion will be spent on school construction in Ontario. Overall, 455 projects will be undertaken in communities across the province, creating 74,169 new pupil places. A total of 73 elementary schools and 17 secondary schools will be built. The Durham area has to date received approval for 33 capital projects valued at $98,253,450. Overall, it is estimated that enrolment will increase by 3200 students. There will b a fairer sharing of local education revenues as the Education Act and related legislation will be amend- ed to create a fairer and more equitable system for distributing local education revenues at the municipal level. Base operating grants to school boards will be in- creased by some $30 million each year over a six-year phase-in period. The rest will be a total increase in school board operating grants of $180 million at the end of the six- year period. These changes will be implemented in such a manner that no public school board will incur a net loss in revenue. These initiatives will help alleviate the existing in- equities.
