News
by Stacey Ferris
Guess who? Yes you're
correct, it's the news
seeker of PHS.
Some of my readers may
not be extremely happy
with me after I reveal the
biggest student secret of
the year. But for some
reason the teachers were
very willing to let it out.
Yes, it is true: Thin-& Nov.
23rd is parent -teacher in-
terview night. So if you
don't see a great number of
students out and about the
following weekend, you will
know why.
To cheer you up, Air
Bands now has a definite
date, Fri. Dec. 8 at lunch
time. Auditions are the
week preceding the actual
contest. If you're wonder-
ing why there are foul dif-
ferent sets of air bands, it is
because this year we decid-
ed to make the fun last in-
stead of having it all over in
one day. Good idea!
A reminder that
Christmas is coming up
quite quickly and that is the
reason Campus kits are go-
ing just as fast. There are a
limited number and time is
limited, so don't miss out.
For senior students who
will one day leave our nest,
don't forget to sign up in
the Guidance Office for the
university or college infor-
mation session of your
choice.
Let's not forget the
sports. Our junior football
team is to be congratulated
for winning the D.Y.S.S.A.
tournament last Saturday
against Markham. They
won with a score of 31-6.

How About It, David
by Bob Watson
The current waste of tax money by our Ontario govern-
ment in establishing bilingualism all over this province is
ridiculous. The use of French to French-speaking Ontarians
is no problem. It is the flow of both languages on paper to
everybody in Ontario that is wasteful.
And. Premier Peterson, if both languages are so equally
important how come you and your government haven't pro-
tested against Quebec Premier Bourassa's restriction on
English in that province?
And. Mr. Peterson. if your government has money to
waste on official bilingualism how come you have no money
for Metro area schools?
Bilingual Elite
Dear Sir:
Increasingly Canadians are becoming concerned about
official bilingualism. Official bilingualism is creating a two
tier society because it makes bilingual persons into a
political elite. Is it a function of democracy to create a
legislated elite? Abraham Lincoln, in the Gettysburg ad-
dress, defined democracy as "government of the people, by
the people, for the people".
Do we have a democracy, a government of the people - by
the people• if official bilingualism prohibits the majority of
Canada's citizens from participating in government? Yet
the majority of Canadians are unilingual. These citizens
are allowed to pay taxes. but they are excluded from
government to decide how those taxes are spent.
Two hundred years ago mankind fought against having
an official religion. Those who did not belong to the official
religion had to give up their own beliefs and a part of their
culture if they wanted full political rights. In Canada we
have the same situation today because of official bil-
ingualism.
English speaking Canadians. who want their children
educated in their own English language and in their
Canadian -English culture. do so knowing that their children
will be second Class citizens, testable to participate in their
own government. They have to give up their language and
culture and attend French immersion schools to have full
political rights. Official bilingualism is about more than ap-
peasing French Canada. Official bilingualism is about
creating a political elite in a once egalitarian society.
Yours sincerely.

To date, across the province, 835,00o litres of oil contain-

Volunteer Recruitment Month
The Heart and Stroke
Foundation of Ontario has
designated the month of
November 1989 as our se-
cond annual Volunteer
Recruitment Month.
Volunteers with the founda-
tion raise funds for
research and conduct
education programs in
your community, all with
the aim of reducing heart
disease and stroke -
Canada's No.1 killer.
The Heart and Stroke
Foundation of Ontario
funds education programs
such as Heart Smart and
Heart To Heart. These pro-
grams, made possible
through the funds raised by
volunteer's with our non-
profit foundation, have
greatly reduced the in-
cidence of heart disease
and stroke in this province
and our community. Death
rates from heart disease
are down by 34 percent
since 1955.
Majorie Wanless has
been involved with the
foundation for 25 years.
"Heart and Stroke has
made the community
aware of the treatments
available for heart patients
that have prolonged and
saved many lives."
The dollars raised are
returned to your communi-
ty in the form of education
programs and medical pro-
cedures which are
developed through
foundation -funded
research.
The Heart and Stoke in
Scarborough needs
volunteers to contribute
their expertise and time to
fight heart disease and
stroke, a disease which
claims more than 90,000
lives in Canada each year.

SWEAP program.
The vision of a clean,
green community that
dumps its waste on
neighbouring towns and
prime agricultural lands. is
not acceptable. Iticirim-
tion that puts toxic gases
into the air is not accep-
table. Waste of resources
and energy is not accep-
table. The first and last line
of defense in the war
against garbage is reduc-
tion.
A panel of speakers
leading the discussion will
include SWF.AP, Ministry
of Environment. Scar-
borough Works Depart-
ment and citi2en groups
from Pickering, Markham
and Toronto. AU must work
together to develop a
strategy for waste reduc-
tion, build the political will
and the commitment of all
department staff and the
people of the communities.

ON STAGE:
Some years ago we had
the dubious distinction of
presenting on television for
the fust time in Ontario,
scenes from the motion pic-
ture version of The Rocky
Horror Show. We were also
the first with scenes from
Star Wars but, let that
per•
Anyway, the stage ver-
sion is resurfacing again
and this time in a most in-
teresting locations . . the
Bathurst Street Theatre
formerly a United Church.
( I Love You Baby Blue has
played there too.)
Opening night is tomor-
row and the star is Juan
C hioran, a name we con-
fess that is unknown to us.
The rest of the cast are
locals, all talented and well
known including Jeff
Haslam, Sandra Caldwell
and Larry Mannell.
Presentation is by Dix-
idme Productions who pro-
duce the shows at Stage
West so we don't believe we
need add more.
IN CONCERT:
This Friday, just one
month before Christmas
Eve, Dizzy G. and Mr. B.
salute Count B. at R.T.
That's a bit of playful
jargon to announce that
-s worias
Dizzy Gillepsie and Billy
Eckstine are appearing
with the Count Basie Or-
chestra at Roy Thomson
Hall. We have always huge-
ly admired Billy Ekstine as
a singer but as the years
pass we wish now and hope
Pot his skills as an in-
strumentalist will be
showcased.
Incidentally, he is not
related to legendary
ragtime pianist Willie
Eckstein though that latter
is the original spelling of
Billy's surname.
On November 28th at
R.T.H. the Kitchener -
Waterloo Symphony under
the direction of Raffi
Armenian will present
Strauss' Vienna featuring
Vanessa Harwood's dance
company Balletto Classico.
The program will also in-
clude soprano, Colette
Boky and tenor, Mark
Dubois.
One has missed Miss
Harwood since her tenure
with the National Ballet
and look forward to seeing
her again. That's if our
plane arrives in time.

good to hear that it's still in
business and doing well.
La Cage with its
outrageous female imper-
sonators is the kind of show
that invites repeat atten-
dances. At this time of year
it's also a bit of a change
from the sometimes sac-
charine holiday entertain-
ment. Try it.
IN PRINT:
The catalogue notes for
The Complete Book of For-
tune (Chatto & Windus)
proudly proclaim "ab-
solutely compulsive
reading, we challenge you
not to be hooked". The
notes are absolutely cor-
rect. The Complete Book of
Fortune is indeed com-
pulsive reading and. we
dare say, later reference.
First published in Great
Britain in 1936 it covers
everything from cards,
dice, crystal gazing, palm
reading and tea leaves to
Napoleon's Book of Fate
and poplar superstitions.
Quite apart from the sub-
ject matter, admirers of
good writing will enjoy this
ecaoomical little volume
for the fine grammar and
proper grammatical style
used throughout. proving
Dace again that good gram-
mar is easy to read.
Something else we found
enjoyable is the approach
to the subject of dreams
and their possible inter-
pretation. It is the only
book of the occult we have
experienced that details, as
much as is possible, the
physical cause of some
dreams and why they
should not be considered
for interpretation.
Those interested in the
occult will or can consider
the book almost a stan-
dard; those who are only
mildly curious will find it
interesting; all will enjoy it
as a primer . . and a
wonderful conservation
piece.

There is no doubt that
some of the recipes are
delicious but to - ascribe
them as being favoured by
certain individuals simply
because of their
astrological sign is really
nothing more than clever
and, in the main, harmless
gimmickry.
Now for those of you who
are interested, this Libra is
said to enjoy, among other
lucullan dishes, oysters
with hot tomato sauce,
cheese and salami en crois-
sant, coquille St. Jacques
(true, if properly
prepared) kidney stew (dit-
to), spaghetti with red
(yecch) and black caviar
and rose petal ice cream.
Where is any mention of
liver and onions? Well, let's
try another cookbook.
The Meat and Potatoes
Cookbook by Maria and
Jack Scott (Farrar, Straus
& Giroux) is not quite what
one might think. It is not a
book about simple or stan-
dard fare but rather a book
in two sections: one with
sup-,rb recipes for meat.
the other with great and
unusual potato recipes.
We suspect that many
will gravitate to the latter
portion of the book if for no
other reason than the
outrageous prices one has
to pay for most meat and
certainly all beef. And, is it
just us or have others notic-
ed how much water there is
in beef nowadays and bow
tasteless are most beef
dishes?
Our comments aside, this
is a most pleasurable book
or the serious cook. We
repeat that the recipes here
are not for the inexperienc-
ed though with care and at-
tention all can essay them.
From the pork, ham and
sausage chapter we recom-
mend Pork Tenderloin
Slices with Prunes. From
the potato specialties
chapter, we suggest Vien-
nese Mustard Potatoes.
Excuse us now while we
dash off for a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich Well,
what the hey, if it's good
enough for Jack Nicholson,
it's worth a try.
ON RECORD:
For some time now we
have lamented the decline
in popularity of romantic
ballads and of those who
sang them. We are par-
ticularly disappointed with
George Benson Tenderly
( Warner Brothers).
Oh, it's good, very good;
it's just that, in our mind it
could have been not better,
but different.
Mr. Benson's talents as
singer and guitarist need
no recounting here. His
voice is smooth and true,
his guitar playing, of
maestro consideration.
The selections here are
just made for romantic
treatment. They include,
the title track, Stella By
Starlight, This Is All I Ask
and I Could Write A Book,
all songs that have stood
the test of time.
Mr. Benson has chosen or
perhaps been directed for
market considerations, to
eschew romanticism in
favour of vocal trickery.
He does things with his
voice than many other
vocalists can only dream
of. But, all of it does
nothing for the songs .. as
we expected them to be.
We particularly looked
forward to Stardust; he
does it well but he does it no
justice. The standard
against which all other ren -

Chorus, now in its third
season, will begin the
Christmas season with a

of seasonal music featuring
"Brother Heinrich's

The story will be nar-
rated by Dennis Caines, a
bass who sings with the
Elmer Lseler Singers. The
children will be joined in
this portion of the program
by members of the
Amadeus Choir.
The audience will be in-
vited to sing along in carols

will be an event for the en-
tire family to attend.

George Brown Presents East Lynne
In the olden days
whenever a theatre
manager needed a sure fire
box office hit, he would

This classic Victorian
melodrama is the saddest
of tales, one which caused
our great-grandparents to
shed copious tears over its
purgative moral.

A Musical

-ditions of the song must be
measured is that of Hoagy
Carmichael, the composer
singing it while accompa-
nying himself on piano. Mr.
Carmichael couldn't sing
worth a nickel but the
honest emotion in his
gravel voice brought to life
and full meaning the lyrics
of Mitchell Parrish.
Well, perhaps we're
showing age now; the
album is good and we ex-
pect it will sell well. Still,
we can't leave without ex-
pressing a wish that
George Benson would
record something where he
simply accompanies
himself.
FAST EXIT:
It is utterly absurd, this
idea of setting aside single
days for great public
holidays. It will never do
anything but harm. What
we want is a general
shortening of working
hours all the year round so
that, for instance, all
labour would be over at 4
o'clock in the afternoon.

Naming Of Opera Theatre
The Canadian Opera
Company has announced
the naming of the Imperial
Oil Opera Theatre in The

In commenting on the
change, Brian Dickie,
General Director of the
Canadian Opera Company
said: "We are very for-
tunate that Texaco Canada
Inc., - a long-time sup-
porter of the Canadian
Opera Company - has been
merged with Imperial Oil
Limited, another loyal
friend to the COC. The Joey
and Toby Tanenbaum
Opera Centre is the borne
of the Canadian Opera
Company Ensanble. It is
thus very appropriate that
the centre's theatre, in
which all the Ensemble's
Toronto productions are
staged ( and all COC pro-
ductions are rehearsed), be
named the Imperial Oil
Opera Theatre."

the end of the street.
Cricket
Take in a game of
cricket, the island's na-
tional sport. Any type of
cricket match can be found
on the island from a world

Sheppard subway has been
met with caution and some
skepticism by Scarborough
politicians.
"It's worth looking at but
I don't want to see a system
controlled by the develop-
ment industry," said
Mayor Joyce Trimmer.
A group of developers
headed by Penta Stolp Cor-
poration are willing to pay
25% of the ;1.1 billion cost
to build the Sheppard sub-
way. The plan, unveiled
last week, calls for six sta-
tions to be constructed bet-
ween Yonge St. and Vic-
toria Park Ave.
Scarborough
For the first time ever,
the City of Scarborough is
sponsoring an entry in the
Grey Cup Parade, being
held in Toronto on Nov.
25th.
Scarborough's entry will
feature a marching band
consisting of three groups
of Air do Sea Cadets from
Scarborough. The 176

Metro Toronto would
have to pick up 19% of the
cost with the province pay-
ing 56%.
The subway, identified
by Metro Toronto as the
number one public transit
priority in Metro, has been
stalled by the province
which is putting its transit
dollars into projects out-
side of Metro. The subway
would eventually extend
eastward from Victoria
Park to the Scarborough
City Centre.
Metro Councillor Brian

stead of developers, can
control densities along the
route. He said Metro could
sell special bonds to help
raise the necessary capital
or perhaps get an advance
from the province. As con-
struction proceeds money
received from developers
for increased density on
their lands could be used to
repay the money, Ashton
said.
The scheme, proposed by
the developers and North
York Mayor Mel Lastman
still has to be approved by
both Metro Council and the
provincial government.

The Federal Department
of Consumer and Corporate
Affairs recently warned
consumers that candles
designed for use in pot-
pourri burners may pose a
hazard in the home. These
candles are known as "tea
candles" or "tea lights'
Following consumer
complaints concerning this
type of candle, a laboratory
analysis by the depart-
ment's Product Safety
branch confirmed that the
molten wax from such a
cantle can sometimes ig-
nite, cracking the potpourri
burner base and scorching
the supporting surface.
Heat generated by the bur-
ning wax, however, was not
found to be sufficient to
cause cotton fabric or
paper to catch fire.
Consumers are advised
to place putpourri burners
on a beat -resistant surface,
to keep an eye on them
while they are m use and
ensure that the water in the
simmering pot does not
evaporate.

To further reduce the

When buying a potpourri

Business Community News
Board Joins Airport Task Force
Gordon W. Riehl, Presi-
dent of The Board of Trade
of Metropolitan Toronto,
has joined the Community
Task Force on the Creation
of a Greater Toronto Area
Airports Authority, at the
invitation of Metro Chair-
man Alan Tonks, who is
also Chairman of the Task
Force.
The board has actively
studied air service issues
and made suggestions for
improvements at Pearson
International Airport, for
many years. Current
government estimates in-
dicate congestion and
capacity problems at Pear-
son are costing Metro
Toronto's economy 5750,000
daily.
The Airports Authority
Task Force was formed
this fall, to examine oppor-
tunities that could come
from the local operation of
airports in the greater
Toronto region.
"The Board of Trade
shares Chairman Tonks'
concern about the serious
and growing inadequacy of
the air services system for
this area," says Riehl,
"and we welcome the op-
portunity to work with the
Airports Authority Task
Force to achieve the most
effective structure possible
to ensure proper services
in the future."
Recently, Federal
Transport Minister Benoit
Bouchard met with board
representatives to detail
his plans for aviation in
southern Ontario. At that
time he announced the con-
struction of two additional
runways and promised to
examine the potential of
other airports in southern
Ontario.
A system of "peak period
pricing" was also propos-
ed. In its response to the
Transport Minister's an-
nouncement, Board Presi-
dent Gordon Riehl said the
taxing of airplane opera-
tions during peak periods,
(7-9a.m. and 4-8p.m.)
would create a "cash crow"
for the federal govern-
ment, capitalizing on Pear -
son's deficiencies and
result in increased casts to
business travellers, and
eventually consumers.

Comments Regarding Im-
plementation Options for
Re -Assessment and Tax
Reform
Commenting on the
various implementation
options being considered
for property tax reform in
Metro Toronto, the board
expresses its concern that
many of the options being
considered are grossly un-
fair to the business com-
munity. Instead, the board
urges the Task Force to
adopt a straight forward
section 63 rieassessment
with a normal phase-in
period for all classes of pro-
perty.
Premier Strongly Urged To
Formally Endorse Expo
2m Caesda Bid
According to Metro
Toronto's Economic
Development Division, Ex-
po Canada 2000 would in-
crease Canada's Gross
Domestic Product by ap-
proximately 57 billion and
create between
145.000-193,000 new jobs.
The board has already
strongly endorsed Expo
Canada 2000 and is now
urging Premier Peterson
to formally endorse the bid.
This is particularly impor-
tant in light of the visit this
month by members of the
Bureau International des
Exposition (BIE) who will
be visiting Toronto to in-
spect site locations and
gauge community support.

Tax analyst John Mackie
spoke of the importance of
retaining the lakeshore in-
dustrial lands. Industry
provides employment, high
assessment, which relieves
taxation on residential pro-

mand for public services in
comparison to residential
development.
Councillor Ron Moeser
indicated that a forumla

of the Rouge Valley was a
high priority which is
under active review by all
levels of government.

•r; THIS WEEK
from Ottawa,
With Rene Soetens, M.P.
Over the years, Canada's national transportation system
has lagged behind in both technology and ridership. I
believe that a perfect example of the failure of the transpor-
tation industry is evidenced by the outlandish subsidies
which were and still are required to keep VIA Rail afloat.
Due to its size and sparse population, there is little question
that Canada requires a much improved transportation
system. It was with these ideals in mind that the govern-
ment recently announced the creation of a Royal Commis-
sion on Passenger Transportation.
The Commission will look ahsad into the 21st century to
advise governments on the needs of Canadians and on the
relationships between the modes of transport in the future.
Through wide consultation and its broad mandate, the Com-
mission is expected to provide a clear action plan that will
ensure that the transportation links among Canada's
regions are maintained and improved.
The Commission will inquire into and recommend solu-
tions on four main areas. First, the role of a national in-
tegrated inter -city passenger transportation system and its
relationship to the entire transportation system. Secondly,
the structure of a suitable multi -model transportation
system• demonstrating the linkages. Third, the potential
for and constraints on achieving a national system. Finally.
the appropriate financial arrangements to achieve such a

MPP Durham West
Deciding Ontario's Electricity Future
At the request of the Minister of Energy, Ontario Hydro
will soon be presenting the government with an important
document. It will contain Hydra's forecasts of electricity
demand and its plans for meeting Ontario's electricity
needs over the next 25 years.
The government has given assurances that these plans
will be subjected to thorough and comprehensive public
review before any approval is given. The review will pro-
vide all interested parties with an opportunity to study and
assess Hydra's plans and forecasts. It will also provide an
opportunity to weigh the enviocnmental implications of any
proposed option or mix of options for meeting electricity
needs.
Ontario currently depends on electricity from three ma-
jor energy sources: hydraulic, fossil and nuclear. Nuclear
power currently supplies nearly half the total. When the
Darlington nuclear power station is completed in 1992,
more than 60% of Ontario's electricity will come from
nuclear power.
Ontario Hydro's and the Ministry of Energy's load
forecasts indicate that new supplies may be needed by the
year 2000.
However, not all interested parties agree on this.
Large electricity users represented by organizations
such as the Association of Major Power Consumers of On-
tario (AMPCO) point to growing demand and contend that
new generating facilities will be needed as early as the
mid -1990's. On the other hand. some consumer groups, and
groups such as Energy Probe argue that conservation and
energy efficiency measures can reduce the growth in de-
mand and defer the need for new facilities until well after
the turn of the century.
During the 1970's, forecasts of high growth rates for elec-
tricity. demand led to greatly increased construction of
generating plants- When the predicted growth rates failed
to materialize. Hydro began to mothball plants in order to
reduce costs. The utility also launched major marketing
programs aimed at increasing sales and gaining maximum
value from its surplus capacity.
More recently Hydro has responded to an upturn in the
growth in electricity use, and government policies which
place increasing emphasis on the need for conservation,
and has shifted its marketing efforts and is launching a ma-
jor conservation campaign.
The government has asked Hydro to make electricity
conservation its first priority in planning to meet the future
needs of the province. In response, Hydro has set itself the
goal of saving 5,500 MW by the year 2000 from electricity
conservation, energy efficiency and parallel generation
measures, which I have talked about in earlier column's.
The government introduced amendments to the Power
Corporation Act empowering Hydro to intensify its efforts
w electricity conservation and efficiency.
The amendments were also designed to make Hydro
more responsive to government policies and public con-
cerns.
The goveimnent also introduced the Energy Efficiency
AM, which sets minimum standards for energy efficiency
in household appliances and energy -consuming products
We have also launched a number of energy conservation
programs -
The government recognizes that Ontario Hydro faces a
complex and difficult set of choices in developing its plans,
for all available demand and supply options have en-
vironmental, economic, and social impacts.
The task facing the people of this province is to ensure
that the electrical power system develops to meet their
electricity needs in a manner compatible with Ontario's en-
vironmental goals and objectives.
A comprehensive public review will take place. Given the
importance of the decisions being made, public discussion
is crucial. It will help to ensure that the decisions on On-
tario's electricity future are both timely and sotind.
LOCAL UPDATE:
I would like to congratulate the Town of Ajax and Picker-
ing who will each receive a Municipal Recreation Grant of
$5,820 to provide assistance in supporting recreation pro-
grams in both communities.
I would like to remind my constituents that if they have
any questions of concern they should contact my office at 2

system, taking into acount.die jurisdiction of all levels •of
government and the role of the private sector will be ex-
amined.
It is my belief that if the goals of the Commission are
achieved, it should provide Canadians with a blueprint for a
comprehensive, coordinated passenger system to carry the
nation well into the 21st century.
I would like to thank all of those who attended my Oct.
27th Vox Pop Forum. The issues of the day were discussed
in full. The next Vox Pop Forum will be held on Nov. 24, at
7:15 p.m. at the Whitby Public Library. I urge you to attend
what I feel is an excellent chance to have your voice heard.
It was a great honour to take part in the Remembrance
Day Services at The Ajax Royal Canadian Legion. I am
sure that we will see just as many in attendance at services
in Whitby and Pickering. Those who served in Canada's
wartime efforts are to be commended. We must never
forget the sacrifices that they made for us all.
On Nov. 2nd, I had the pleasure of talking with the Picker-
ing H.S. Cadet Corps in Ottawa. If you would like to arrange
a meeting or tour of the Parliament Buildings while in Ot-
tawa, please contact my office at 666-0432.
