�Hi! I'm back, and with
me I have brought some
good news and some bad
news. We should get the
bad news over with first.
I'm sad to say that
because of all these spec-
tacular Hallowe'en ac-
tivities our school is taking
a rest. We just can't handle
any more excitement for
one time: needless to say.
my column will be a tiny bit
shorter. But the good news
is that all our Hallowe'en
events were great
Our pumpkin -carrying
contest was a memorable
event. We had a cowboy
pumpkin, a pumpkin eating
a sandwich, a garbage
eating pumpkin and many
others-. brit the winner was
a hippi pumpkin with ban-
danas and peace symbols
all over him.
Sprit week which in-
volves dressing up to the
then-* of the day was qurite
hu miorouis at times. I was
Snow White on Hallowe'en
Day, just in case you didn't
recognize me.
Our fund raising commit-
tee is holding a fashion
stow in the Spring. I know
it is a long time away from
now, but the reason I am in-
forming you today is
because the fund raising
for the event is already
underway. Money will be
raised by holding raffles.
Prizes will be available and
that is the best part.
An update on our milk
drive. Let me just say that
one day last week we were
sold out of milk in our
cafeteria. Way to go
P.H.S., let's keep those
cows in business.
In sports this week our
Trojans are at the top of the
list for winning their semi-
final match against Ux-
bridge last Tuesday. They
won 27-7. with the defence
giving it their all and com-
ing out as the stars of the
game.
Touchdowns were scored
by Joe Foote, Paul Duncan
and Jason Griffiths. They
are now entering the finals.
Good Luck'
Our second set of stars
were the junior girls'
basketball team. They won
the tournament hosted by
our very own P.H.S. this
past weekend and now
qualify for L.O.S.S.A. Top
credits go to Jenny Hunt,
who just couldn't stop drop-
ping them in the basket.
Lastly, for girls in-
terested in playing school
volleyball this year, try-
outs are starting soon.
Keep your ears open for an-
nouncements or speak to

Stoner Asks About VIA Cuts In Legislature
On Thurs. Oct. 26th,
Norah Stoner, M.P.P.
Dunham West, posed a
question in the house to the
Hon. William Wrye,
Minister of Transportation
about the proposed VIA
cuts to the Peterborough -
Havelock line.
She stated that the cut is
causing great concern
because many people from
the community depend on
that line for its commuter
service, which will be
wiped out in January.
Mrs. Stoner asked the
Minister exactly what in-
volvement the Province of
Ontario is going to have
with respect to this an-
nouncement, particularly
in view of the speculation
that the GO system would
intervene.
Mr. Wrye stated that
"categorically there are no
negotiations now under
way, there were none and
none are planned."
He indicated that this
was a federal responsibili-
ty and that he hopes the
people in that area of On-
tario will be successful in
persuading Mr. Bouchard
to reverse his decision.
Another member of the
Provincial Legislature,
David Cooke, revealed that
the order in Council, reliev-
ing Via Rail of its obliga-
tions places the residual
legal duties with the
original owners of the lines
- Canadian National and
Canadian Pacific.
The federal legislation
stipulates that C.N. and
C.P. are responsible for
providing passenger rail
service to the people of
Canada, should VIA Rail's
service be cancelled.
Therefore, they must pro-
vide passenger service as
of midnight Jan. 16, 1990.
..The cuts to the VIA
passenger service have
caused outrage all across
Ontario," stated Mrs.
Stoner.

Canadians Are Angry
by Bob Watson
Canadians are angry with their governments at all levels
- but especially the federal government. The aggravating
fact, however, is that Prime Minister Brian Mulroney
doesn't seem to realize that we are angry at the way his
government is wasting tax money and not paying the na-
tional debt!
Perhaps each of our readers should mail this opinion to
the PM - you can sent it postage free!
Mulroney 's government is still wasting taxes dishing out
"goodies" to every group that reaches out its hand - and we
can't afford this nonsense. He just enlisted our country in
the Organization of American States - another few million
plus we'll be involved in the future in all the military pro-
blems of Latin America.
The 9% GST is unnecessary if our Progressive Conser-
vative MPs at (lttaw•a would start telling our "not
listening" Prime Minister that budget cuts are what we all
want. Democracy is not functioning in the old Canadian
way at Ottawa and if the PM doesn't respond soon he may
see the first large scale angry demonstrations against his
government and his costly GST.
MPs are representatives of the people and the people
want them to start acting on our behalf. Let's start now!
Labour Bill
A bill that strengthens the province's approach to protec-
ting health and safety in the workplace has received second
reading in the Ontario Legislative Assembly and will now
be considered by a legislative committee.
Labour Minister Gerry Phillips said the Home had af-
firmed the basic principles of Bill 2D8, when it granted se-
cond reading, which is approval in principle, of the bill. Bill
208 proposes amendments to the Occupational Health and
Safetv Act.
"'Kris bill will give Ontario the most progressive
,workplace safety legislation in North America," Mr.
Phillips said. The bill will be considered by the
Legislature's Resources Development Canrnittee, which is
expected to hold public bearings.
The minister told the Legislature recently the three basic
principles of the bill are - strengthening the labour -
management partnership for ensuring health and safety at
the workplace and provincial level: ensuring that both
Labour and management have the training and education
necessan to give full effect to their health and safety con-
cerns: and providing greater authority for the new
knowledge to be applied in the workplace so that the risk of
accident can be minimized.
The current costs associated with illness and injury are
simply too high, in both human and economic terms, Mr.
Phillips said.
In 1988, the worker's compensation system paid out $1.45
billion in benefits to workers who suffered workplace injury
or illness. And seven million work days were lost. Based on
the average industrial wage, that cost the provincial
economy about $ion million.
"And those facts don't even begin to address the most
distressing reality of all - the reality of the 360 men and
women*rho died last year because of work-related causes, "
Mr. Phillips said. Bill 208 seeks to reduce those costs by
strengthening the integrated provincial approach to
workplace health and safety that was first enacted a decade
ago under the Occupational Health and Safety Act a decade
ago.
While there is widespread agreement about the principles
of the bill and support for most of the provisions which will
put life to these principles, there is concern about specific
features, he said. Some changes midst be made if Bill 208 is
to have the commitment from all parties necessary to make
the system work effectively.
The government will place before the Resources Develop-
ment Committee a number of proposed amendments for its
consideration. Issues to be discussed include the structure
and composition of the workplace Health and Safety Agen-
cy, the governance of existing safety associations, and un-
plementation in the construction sector.
The government will also place before the committee for
its consideration a modified approach to the issue of the
right of certified worker or management representatives to
order a stop to dangerous work that poses an immediate
threat to workers. The minister said the government looks
forward to full and open debate during the committee pro-
cess, including public hearings, before making any propos-
ed changes. It is important that all views be heard he said.

Hospital workers fear contracting AIDS
Thirteen percent of hospital workers surveyed as part of
a University of Toronto study feel they have the right to
refuse to take care of a patient with AIDS. The survey, con-
ducted by the Facility of Medicine and Toronto Hospital, is
one of the first in Canada to report on health care workers
who care for AIDS patients. A total of 1,300 staff in three
Toronto hospitals were asked questions about their
knowledge. concerns and attitudes towards AIDS sufferers.
Letter To The Editor
Dear Editor:
Canada's Language War
"Two founding nations" - that expression is part of pro-
paganda spread throughout Canada. It is a dangerous
weapon of war - a language war! The result of this wear
could be an English-speaking or a French-speaking nation,
but not both.
The motivation behind the propaganda is power,
perpetuated revenge and instilled hatred. This has been in-
stigated by a tribal instinct on the part of Quebec Na-
tionalists.
Clever instruments of this language war are legislations -
Bill C-72, Bill 8 of Ontario, Bill 178 of Quebec, the Meech
Lake Accord, and French Immersion of our children.
Protect yourself and prepare for this language war or we
will be overcome! Arm vouuself with the truth. Elected
representatives have allowed this to happen. You, as a true
Canadian, can make a difference. Find out what would be

she stands between
Albrecht and his betrothed
with her peasant and inno-
cent strength proclaiming
that he is hers.
And, of course, her "pied
a pied" is probably the best
of any dancer in the com-
pany. Indeed, with the im-
minent retirement of
Veronica Tennant it is
arguably the very best. No,
Miss Iightheart cannot be
held accountable for the
lack of passion in the pro-
duction.
Raymond Smith as
Albrecht? Well, his danc-
ing can't be faulted, par-
ticularly his strong lifts. As
an actor he is rather
reminiscent of the old style
Romeos: you know, pallid
and dreamy but that might
have been direction rather
than his interpretation.
Tomas Schramek, look-
ing younger all the time,
did his excellent best as
Hilarion but couldn't come
across as a man of the
forest and of only the
minimal passions. Less
than perfect casting?
Perhaps.
The performances of
Martine Lamy, Karyn

Granted that the dance

mains that a score should
be imbued with the emo-

poser.
Former conductor
George Crum knew that

ly. In fact, Mr. Crum it was
who revised and or-
chestrated the score. What

withholding one's custom.
We must be true to the pro-
fession, however, and com-
ment that something a tad
sparkier than what we
witnessed is called for. Or
is there a contradiction in
the concept of excellence
as the norm?
OPERA SEEN:
Hard on the heels of the
Aida presentation at
SkyDome comes word of an
even blockerbuster (just
made up the word) produc-
tion for next summer.
Giuseppe Raffa, Artistic
Director of the Interna-
tional Opera Festival has
announced that the world
premiere of the I.O.F.'s
production of Carmen will
take place in Sky Dome
next June 15th and 16th.
It is claimed that it will
be the largest and most
spectacular opera ever
staged. There will be over
1500 extras (Maestro Raffa
doesn't call them supers)
and the stage will be 20%
larger than that con-
structed for Aida.
At this time it isn't known
if the dome will be open or
not. We rather suppose that
the exigencies of sound
engineering will not permit
such a happening but a pro-
duction of Carmen under
the stars of a balmy spring
eve could be most pleasant.
We'll keep you posted.
IN CABARET:
Classical Cabaret's next
concert is this Sunday in
the George Ignatieff
Theatre. To be presented is
a new song cycle
Lacnmosa in both classical
and jazz styles to be sung
by mesio -soprano, Anne -
Marie Donovan accom-
panied by the composer.
Glenn Buhr.
Also on the program will
be flautist, Kathryn Moses
and harpist, Joanna Jordan
with a fusion of musical
styles called CL=.
As always, it should be
an entertaining afternoon
but we can't help reflecting
that Lacnmosa sound like
an Italian pastry.
TALENT CALL:
Given that children in the
cast outgrow their roles.
the producers of Les
Miserables are holding
auditions again this Satur-
day at the Canadian Opera
Company, 227 Front St. E.
They start at 10 a.m. and
%rill continue until 12 noon.
No one arriving after noon
hour will be allowed to
audition. No exceptions!
The producers are look-
ing for boys and girls bet-
ween 7 and 10 (11 for boys)
to be considered in the
roles of young Costette and
Gavroche. Aspirants
should prepare one or two
songs of their choice -other
than from Les Miz-and
must bring their own sheet
music. They should also
learn the appropriate
music from Les Miz. Also
required is a resum6 stapl-
ed to a current photo.
Good luck to all and for
heaven's sake, don't be
late!
BLACK TIE:
More parties from party
lady Joanne Smale.
Paparazzi is a new club
opening in Richmond Hill.
Tomorrow evening is for a
private grand opening par-
ty and is to be strictly black
tie.
Dare we hope that with
the current affluence in the
economy, formal, or at
least semi -formal in the
case of black tie, dress will
become the norm?
Robertson Davies On
Technology & The Arts
Ernest Hemingway
wrote his novels with a pen-
cil, standing at a high
table. Robert Fulford still
relies on an old-fashioned
typewriter. Richard
Rohmer dictates his books.
Visual artist Charles
Pachter creates shapes
and even mixes his colors
on a computer. Composer
Philip Glass, well-trained
in traditional composi-
tional skills, writes his
minimalist scores on
manuscript paper but ar-
ranges with digital
samplers.
Has technology had an
impact on the arts? Have
the arts had an impact on
technology? In 1989, many
mainstream artists are
still beholden to traditional
ways of creating. In other
cases, the latest in
technology is creating new
traditions.
Robertson Davies, the
fourth speaker in the an-
nual J. Tuzo Wilson
Presentation, brings a
novelist's perspective to
the topic of technology and
the arts on Nov. 26th at 2
p.m. at the Ontario Science
Centre. Free tickets for
reserved seating will be
available at the Science
Centre beginning at 12:30
p.m. on Nov. 26.
World Premiere
"Tire Fairies", a power-
ful new operatic ballet
about freedom and slavery,
will premiere Nov. 17th and
18th in Toronto.
Adapted from the work of
Persian poet Ahmad
Shamlu. this extraordinary
performance features the
work of many renowned
Canadian artists as well as
the traditional dance of
visiting Tadjik ballerinas
from the Soviet Union.
Musicians, dancers,
vocalists and actors have
come together to create a
unique international ex-
perience.
"Tbe Fairies" runs for
two nights only at 8:30 p.m.
at the Metropolitan Toron-
to Convention Centre's
John Basset Hall, 225 Front
St. E.
Tickets are $30 and are
available at the door or in

Home is an active group of
seniors who work to im-
prove the quality of life for
all who live at Altamont.
The association funds its
work through money raised
at its annual bazaar. Funds
were used for such recent
projects as the purchase of
a portable stage so
everyone can see the enter-
tainers: sponsorship of a
children's Hallowe'en par-
ty, trips and special social
programs. The associatin
also donated over $2,000 to

year.
This year the Altamont
Bazaar is being held on Sat.
Nov. 18th from 1:30 to 4
p.m. at 92 Island Rd., West
Hill (south of Hwy. 401 and

Highlights of the bazaar in-
clude crafts, penny sale,
white elephants, bake
table, raffle, tea room and
more.
It is through this fun-
draising that the associa-
tion is able to continue its
work and provide pro-

the life enrichment of its
residents.

50% Dancers Suffer Foot Injuries
Some 50% of aerobic
dancers are now suffering
foot and leg injuries says
Scarborough Podiatrist
Paul O'Connell, Doctor of
Podiatric Medicine and Im-
mediate Past President of
the Canadian Podiatric
Sports Medicine Academy.
Statistics show that im-
proper foot wear and hard
work out surfaces cause in-
juries to one out of two ex-
ercisers. The Scarborough
Podiatrist says that
aerobics is an excellent
conditioning exercise for
the heart and lungs but
unless attention is paid to
wearing the proper shoes
and socks and dancing on a
shock-abosrbing floor,
serious damage can be
done to the feet, lower back
and knees.
He warns that in typical
routines the feet can take
incredible pounding up to
three to five times your
body weight and this can
cause stress fractures of
the metatarsal bones and
damage to the achilles ten-
don. These are not injuries
that heal rapidly.

tients out of the sport for

Mayors & Police Chiefs Recommendations
by Gav Abbate
A meeting of mayors and
police chiefs of 10 urban
centres has recommended
tough measures to fight the
growing drug problem -
Scarborough Mayor
Joyce Trimmer who at-
tended the two-day sym-
posium on illicit drugs last
week in Ottawa said tough
measures have to be taken
soon. "We've got to do
something," she told a
press conference last Fri-
day.
According to Sgt. Pat
Tallon, no area of Scar-
borough is immune from
drug trafficking. He said
crack houses are
widespread. In the Last 18
months, police have made
three drug sweeps
resulting in hundreds of ar-
rests.
"Some areas of Scar-
borough are difficult to go
through without being of-
fered drugs for sale."
Tallon said. Metro police
have doubled the size of
their drug squad in Scar-
borough. There have been
m dorm -related deaths in
Could Make More Revenue
By Selling Ad Space
by Gay Abbate
Some members of Scar-
borough Council think the
city could generate a little
more revenue by selling
advertisement space in its
arenas. Other cauicillors
say it would be an eyesore.
Staff of the recreation
and parks department are
proposing selling the ads to
Boardview Advertising
Inc. Tobacco and alcohol
ads would not be allowed.
Rookie Councillor
Sherene Shaw told a recent
council meeting that the
arena signs was "an in-
teresting opportunity for
the city to generate some
revenue". She suggested
the city reserve one sign

weeks with these injuries.
We also find concomitantly
that the foot itself is not
functioning properly and
consequently have to make
an insert for the patient to
slip inside their shoe to
straighten up the foot while
walking and especially dur-
ing sporting activities. Of
course proper shoes are
important in aerobic danc-
ing," cautions O'Connell.
"Running shoes won't do
as they stablize the foot
while running but also limit
the side to side motion of
exercise," he says.
He advises tennis or
court shoes, or better yet,
aerobic shoes. The chief
factor in aerobics is the
floor according to his ex-
periences. It should be firm
resilient and even. It need
not be carpeted but should
be cushioned. You can
carpet over cement but it is
not efferctive unless it is
thick and good quality and
of good padding
undernearth. One should
contact a podiatrist in-
terested in sports podiatry.
for its own promotional
use. She was backed by
Councillor Gerry Altobello
who argued that "in this
day of rising taxes. govern-
ments should look at ways
of bringing in new revenue
to offset tax increases."
But on the other side of
the debate was Councillor
Ron Watson who said the
city already has enough
signs. "There's enough
clutter. People don't need
more signs when they go to
an arena.
Councillor Fred Johnson
called the suggestion
"sight pollution".
Councillor :Marilyn
Mushinski said council
should reject the request
from Boar•dview as it has
turned down similar re-
quests from other com-
panies in the past.
Because of the mixed
reaction to the plan, the

Leading Cause Of Death
:Many people are surpris-
ed to learn that Sudden In-
fant Death syndrome, com-
monly called SIDS or "crib
death", is the leading
single cause of death in
Canada for babies between
one week and one year of
age.
It takes the life of about
one in every 500 live-born
babies - more than the in-
fant deaths in this age
range from cystic fibrosis,
cancer, heart disease and
accidents combined. No
one yet knows the exact
causeisi of SIDS. In our
present state of knowledge,
SIDS can neither be
predicted nor prevented.
The Canadian Founda-
tion for the Study of Infant
Deaths, the "SIDS Founda-
tion", is holding its annual
national Baby's Breath
Conference on Nov. lith at
the Ramada Hotel Don
Valley in North York.
Internationally known
pioneer in neonatal care
and research, Dr. L.
Stanley James of Columbia
University, New York, will
present the keynote ad-
dress on "Sudden Infant
Death Syndrome: Future
Directions in Research".
On the theme of "Form-
ing a Firm Foundation"
the SIDS Foundation will
present a workshop on
"Team Building", and, as
the mourning of men is fre-
quently ignored in our
society, there will also be a
workshop on "The Grief of
Fathers: Sudden Loss" to
explore ways to help
bereaved fathers.

Chamber Takes Stand On RT
The Scarborough
Chamber of Commerce has
taken a firm stance in
defense of the LRT.
The Scarborough LRT is
currently being analyzed
for cost effectiveness by
the Toronto Transit Com-
mission. However, its
future will ultimately lie in
the hands of Metro and the
Province.
"Currently the RT is the
best alternative." said
Paul Hyatt, President of
the Scarborough Chamber
of Commerce, "the
chamber believes that con-
tinued economical growth
is directly dependent on the
expansion of the Scar-
borough RT."
The chamber substan-
tiates this position on the
basis that a rapid public
transit infrastructure
within a city has proven to
be a key element in attrac-
ting corporations. "We
have been successful in
getting blue chip com-
panies to move their offices
to Scarborough fro,, the
downtown core because we
have the ability to get their
employees to and from
work quickly and efficient-
ly," says Hyatt. "In order
to attract additional
businesses and to simply
meet the existing and pro-
jected demand, the RT
must be maintained and
expanded."
According to the
chamber, there has been a
marked increase in service
industries and indirect
employment opportunities
as a result of corporate
growth. "This increase has
made a substantial con-
tribution to the local
economy," said Hyatt,
"and greater RT service
can only see this im-
pressive growth pattern
continue."
In addition, Hyatt stated
that additional tax revenue
created by the influx of new
business would be ample,
in the long run. to improve
the city's public services
such as roadways, com-
munity centres and public
transportation.
The chamber also main-
tains that the local citizens
do not want an increase in
traffic. Without the RT, the
severe congestion that

as Joe Pantalone, Chair-
man of Metro's Music

mittee, and Derwyn Shea.

awareness and fundraising
campaign and appealed to
Metro for the restoration of
this Toronto landmark.
The restoration will take
place in two phases: Phase

Kingston Rd. Parking
Metro has decided to pro-
hibit perking at anytime on
both sides of Kingston Rd.
(Highway 2) from 143
metres west of Centennial
Rd. to 32 metres west of
Durnford Rd. and 73
metres east of Sheppard

The proposal came from
the provincial transporta-
tion ministry.
Aquarium
Metro Council has defer-
red a decision to establish a
site for an aquarium for

aquarium would be on

Consumers Gas has been
given an easement on the
Scarborough Transporta-

sum of 52000.
The proposed easement
with an area of 482.40
square metres has a fron-
tage of 59.13 metres along

average depth of 8.00
metres. A prior easement

with Rene Soetens, M.P.
The Great Lakes hold 20% of the world's supply of fresh
water. They provide drinking water, recreation, and are
the economic underpinning for 35 million Canadians and
Americans. Over the years, the quality of water in the
Great Lakes has been steadily diminishing. Whether one
talks about the localized pollution of Toronto beaches or the
overall quality of the lakes, one thing is clear, the picture is
bleak. However, the Great Lakes can be saved and return-
ed to their once glorious state.

HEROES AMONG US
Quick! Grab the kids and turn off the television. You may
have a hero living next door. Not a mythical super hero but
a living breathing feeling one. This person probably does
not think of himself as a hero, but then, real heroes rarely
do.
Two of our local firefighters will receive medals for
bravery on November 6th from Lieutenant -Governor Lin-
coln Alexander.
North York Firefighter Sean O'Hearn and Toronto
Firefighter Cedric Frudd have been recognized by the
government for their bravery and courage in the line of du-
ty.
O'Hearn of Park Cr. in Pickering, says he was "just doing
his job" when he carried a very large man to safety from
within a burning rooming house. He climbed the aluminum
ladder up to the 3rd floor, passing the 2nd floor which was
fully involved. A hydro line snapped and fell onto the ladder
leaving O'Hearn with no retreat and no way for anyone to
assist him.
He crawled along the roof, entering the house through a
window. He found a man lying unconscious on the floor and
carried him to a stairwell where he received assistance
from another fireman who helped carry the man to safety.
Sadly, the man died in hospital one month after the inci-
dent. his lungs seared and infected from the blaze. O'Hearn
said all firefighters are faced with similar incidents from
time to time and he feels he was "just doing his job'
Last year in Ontario, 141 deaths were attributed to fire.
Loss of property amounted to a staggering $317 million.
Firefighters don't always fight fires as Cedric Frudd of
Plumridge Court in Ajax can attest.
Frudd, saved the lives of two youngsters who had crossed
a low river in the Steeles , Weston Rd. area to go filing on a
nearby island. On that day there was heavy rain and the
boys became trapped, unable to get back to the mainland
due to the swells and current. The fire department couldn't
get the trucks down to the river bank so the Chief drove his
truck down and was accompanied by two ambulances.
"Ibe youngest boy who was about 8 years old was really
frightened," Frudd said. He tied a rope around himself and
crossed the river to the two boys bringing the frightened
youngsters back across the swollen river to safety. "I don't
feel like a hero, but my family sees it a little differently,"
Frudd laughed.
"This award is really for all the firefighters. Anyone
woWd have done the same thing." Maybe, but it is reassur-
ing to know that there are Firefighters like O'Hearn and
Frudd that risk it all because "it's their job".
LOCAL UPDATE:

plicatim booklet for the Arrive Alive Grams. if you repre-
sent a student population in some capacity you can call us

On Tues. Oct. 10th, The Minister of Health and Welfare on
behalf of Environment Canada, announced the furling for
programs under the Great Lakes Action Plan. The Great
Lakes Action Plan will commit $125 million in new funds
over five years to help clean up, preserve and monitor the
Great Lakes. The action plan has three principal elements:
helping cleats up the mess of today, preserving the environ-
ment for the future, and closely examining the current state
of the lakes for potential dangers to human health.
The first element, the $55 million Great Lakes Clean-up
Fund, will restore the health of the Great Lakes ecosystem.
The fund will implement specific remedial measures in
areas of federal jurisdiction. Around the Great Lakes there
are 42 areas of concern designated by the International
Joint Commission, all of which are targeted for remedial
action.
The second area, the Preservation fund, with a budget of
$50 trillion, will look at the changes we all must make to
preserve the Great Lakes. There is much work to be done.
We need to [educe the run-off from lands along the lake
shores, particularly water laden with agricultural
chemicals. We must also work to prevent pollution of
ground water, ensure contaminated sediments do not
spread before they can be removed or neutralized and ex-
amine how best to protect the lakes from toxic rainfall,
which account for about 30% of the pollution of the lakes.
The third program, for which $20 million has been
allocated, examines the effect of Great Lake's pollution on
human health. There are growing concerns that the
cumulative effect of low-level toxic chemicals, may indeed
affect human health. The government takes these concerns
seriously and will address them systematically. The dif-
ferent aspects of this scientific work include examining the
overall effect on human health of exposure to con-
taminants, to enhancing the involvement of groups and in-
dividuals, to improving the coordination of scientific
research conducted in the Great Lakes basin.
The residents of Ontario Riding and the surrounding
areas, know all too well the effects of pollution on the Great
Lakes. They treed only drive to the shotes of Lake Ontario
and look out over its vast waters to witness it first hand. I
agree whole-heartedly with the growing number of Cana-
dians who feel that the time `,)r talk is over. We must ensure
that the environment our children inherit from us is as
clean as, or cleaner, than the environment we inherited
from our parents.
