authorities leave the 1980's
they take with them the
paradox of an increasing
population to service, and
an increasing range of ser-
vices to provide, but with
declining financial
resources.
The chairman noted that
in the new decade conser-
vation authorities must ar-
rive at some reasonable
balance of its mandate and
public opinion and must
seek innovative response to
the public needs.
As guest speaker, Ron
Kanter reviewed the work
of his office to date in
preparing a greenlands
strategy on behalf of the
Province of Ontario for the
Greater Toronto Area.

for you and us
GST Not Deadly
Dear Sir:
I read with interest. your thoughts about taxes in the Jan.
17th edition, particularly your concern about the Goods and
Services Tax.
You describe it as "deadly". People may hate paying
taxes but I am not aware of anyone who died from it. Of
course. to the contrary, many people have been helped
because we all paid our taxes.
You describe the G.S.T. as "inefficient". The fact is that
the federal sales tax it is replacing is ineffecient. With
22.000 special deals. there are tar more special considera-
tions and ways of getting around or avoiding the existing
federal sales tax. No longer wi ll tax experts i)e able to work
a special deal for 'hose who can afford to hire them. to
avoid paying the tax The burden of G.S.T. will be shared by
all Canadians with special provisions for the exclusion of
food and prescription drugs to prevent the tax from unduly
affecting lower income Canadians.
You also describe the tax as "expensive". The govern-
ment presently collects about $18.5 billion from the existing
tax and will net the same amount from the new tax. As you
can see. it will be no more expensive
I am sure you would want your readers to know
Regards

GST Is Deadly
b_v Bob Wat%on
The above letter from MP Rene Soetens reveals why
members of the Progressive Conservative caucus at (i_
taw•a are not treating the criticism of the proposed C.S7
with concern for small business and especially the
publishing irdustrv.
Newspapers. books and magazines have always been ex-
empt from both federal and provincial sales taxes because
we live in a country which supports freedom of speech and
freedom of the press. European countries and Britain still
respect this fundamental democratic right and do not tax
the publishing iridustry. The Mulroney government doesn't
seem to care about these basic freedoms at all.
When we say that the proposed GST is "deadly... we
mean it will kill small business. which as any economic ex-
pert knows. is the basis of a Rood economy. Can you im-
agine the costs of collecting a sales tax on each copy of this
newspaper plus .)n each advertisement and then the
calculation of the taxes and the remittance of forms to O
tawa It is a stupid. most inefficient way to collect taxes
and it rides over the foundation of our freedom - freedom of
speech and press.
We realize that years of our federal government spending
more than it collects makes increased taxation necessary.
But why not use a tax collection system that is already in
place and therefore creates no more clerical costs - the in-
come tax.
In uur opiruon Michael Wilson and all his partners in
government have no reasonable view of this country and
accept any idea ground out by the civil servants in the
finance dept. We always thought we sent NIPS to Ottawa to
run the country - not let the civil servants do it all
Let's kill the GST - it is a ridiculous, expensive way io col-
lect essential taxes
Don't Think About GST!
Dear Sir
Recent events have proven two truths about Prime
Minister_Mulroney's government.
The first is that it's spending is out of control.
The second is that it's deliberately deceiving us when it
claims otherwise.
The proof came in two headlines on November 2, 1989.
One headline said "Deficit clouds future, economists
warn". The following story reported the findings of a study
by the Economic Council of Canada. The study urged a
government spending freeze to help deal with the rapidly
growing debt, which will be a huge burden on our children.
The other headline said "4.5 million to Ballet Opera
House" The following story revealed that this federal
government handout was the first instalment on a further
S70 million for the Toronto extravaganza. No matter how
good the opera may be, that kind of handout just can't be

that it is making major

to the pub and back again.
Sandra is excited about
next year's campaign,
which she will be organiz-
ing "Even though there
hasn't been a student cam-
paign for a few years, peo-
ple were supportive of the
United Way pub night that
we held. It's a good sign for
next year when I hope to
have the opportunity to

Looking For Cadets
The Scarborough Navy

for boys and girls, ages 10
to 14, uxerl=eu in oecoul-
ing cadets. The group meet
every Tuesday night at 6:45
to 9 p.m. at the North Ben -

Objective of the cadets is
to develop "good Canadian

accommodate the popular
Country Collectibles
theme.
"With the economy the
way it is the buying public
is more critical. People
look for greater variety,
larger selection as well as
quality. By mixing in a bit
of country, the decorator
and collectible theme and
hosting a couple of large
shows at the fantastic
Metro East Trade Centre in
Pickering complete with
live music, demonstra-
tions, cultural exhibitions
dressed up with carpeted
aisles and draped booths,
we hope to be able to
satisfy this demand."
Facility manager Jen-
nifer Siddnger says that no
convenor has attempted a
quality show such as this on
as large a scale.
The NEW shows have
prompted the Cryderman
group to change the format
of all of their shows to en-
compass the "Craft &
Country Collectibles"
theme so that there is
uniformity to their pro-
gram. The shows will still
be produced under the
Craft World umbrella and
visitors to the shows will
still be able to buy such
items as preserves, jams,
jellies, fudge, pottery,
glassware, weaving,
wicker, quilts, potpourri,
ceramics, clothing, wood
carving, ods and water
colours, limited edition
antique primitive
furniture reproductions,
stained glass, leather and
sheepskin, grapevine
wreaths and the list goes
on.

step for us," says Cryder-
man. "It has cost an enor-
mous amount of money,

Club Med
Big About
There may be just one
ship, but there's nothing
small about Club Med's en-
try into the cruise business.
When Club Med 1, the
largest and most
technologically advanced
sailing strip in the world,
arrives in early 1990, it will
reflect design and
marketing strategies for
the '90's as bold as the
original concept of Club
Med itself.
„Club Med has been an
innovative leader in the
travel industry for 40
years. After a great deal of
thought, we have decided
to bring that innovation to
cruising by offering a uni-
que sailing vacation to
some of the world's most
exciting destinations," said
Serge Trigano, Club Med's
Chief Executive Officer.
"We believe Club Med has
the resources and the im-
agination to make a major
impact on the fastest grow-
ing segment of the travel
industry...
In the rapidly changing
cruise business. Club Med
and its sailing vessel have
two major advantages: a
distinctive ship to diffemm-
tiate Club Med's product
from any other. and the
marketing resources to
compete with the largest
cruise lines.
In design. Club Med 1
combines the romance and
excitement of yachting
with the comfort and
elegance of a cruise liner.
The IM metre ship is fully a
third larger than any other
of the new generation of
sailing ships. Her five
computer -operated masts
carry 2,500 square meters
of sail for a speed of 12-14
knots. Super -quiet electric
engines provide auxiliary
power and computer -
operated stabilizing equip-
ment reduces roll to less
than 2 degrees.
Central to the philosophy
of architect, Jean -Marc
Poylo, an interior designer,
Alberto Pinto, is the
passenger's immediate
relationship to the environ-
ment through indoor and
outdoor areas open to the
sky and sea. Both
restaurants, on upper
decks, take advantage of
natural light through win-
dows and huge portholes,
with one adjoining an out-
door cafe area for alfresco
dining. All bort eight of the
198 cabins and suites have
windows. Even the theatre
has a glass roof.
Cabin amenities aboard
Club Med 1 include double
insulation for extra quiet,
telephones and four -
channel television. The
cabins, approximately
17.5m2, and two 30m2 ac-
commodate up to 396
passengers, with some

Club Med I is staffed by
151 G.O.s ( Club Med per-

ing the ship a remarkable
ratio of staff to passengers
of almost 1:2. This focus on
service plus the ship's
range of facilities assure
passengers they will enjoy
a cruise experience equal
to that found on any ship
regardless of size.
Everyone will be welcome,
from singles to couples to
families to honeymooners
young and old.
Club Med's marketing
strategy reflects the com-
pany's determination to
position its entry into the
cruise business as an
upscale, mainstream,
however unique cruise pro-
duct. This is not another en-
try into narrow, top-of-the-
line specialty cruises. Pric-
ing and choice of
itineraries indicate the
company's belief that Club
Med I can attract a variety
of international vaca-
tioners - from those looking
for a unique sailing ship to
those in search of exciting
ports, superb food and
friendly shipboard am-
biance.
In choosing itineraries.
the ship's size and
character as well as
today's travel trends were
considered. Seven-day
voyages make the ship ap-
pealing to a wide range of
pocketbooks and tastes.
Within each itinerary,
highly popular ports are
combined with little
known, exclusive stops, of-
fering a variety of am-
biance and activities not
often found on a one-week
cruise.
Club Med 1 will sail the
Mediterranean during the
spring and summer months
from the home port of Can-
nes, calling on such ports
as Portofino, St. Tropez,
Sardinia and Corsica. A
fall winter itinerary
features the Carribean,
from a base in Guadeloupe.
Ports include Antigua, St.
Marteen, Virgin Gorda,
Puerto Rico, St. Thomas
and St. Barts.
There will be single, dou-

Pitch For Expo 2000 & 1996 Olympics
Officials from the '96
Olympic and Expo 2000
organzing committees
underlined the importance
of their events to all of
Metro Toronto at a forum
for senior communications
specialists organized by
the Metropolitan Toronto
Convention & Visitors
Association.
Paul Henderson, chair of
the Toronto Ontario Olym-
pic Committee, said that
new and improved recrea-
tional facilities would
result in all six Metro
municipalities (as well as
in other Ontario cities) if
Metro Toronto is successful
in its Olympic bid.
He also compared Toron-
to's situation today with
that of Calgary in 1962, ex-
plaining that when Calgary
was chosen as Olympic
host in 1982, it was enjoying
a real economic boom.
However, by 1988 the
economy had turned sour
and the Olympics were the
only thing that kept that ci-
ty afloat during its hard
times.
Paul Kulavis of Expo
2000 told the audience that
while the Expo bid has
been overshadowed by
public interest in the Olym-
pics. the two projects are
very compatible.
He explained that if they
both occur, there will be
tremendous benefits for
Metro Toronto. He said
that even though they are
very different types of
events, the same positive
results will occur. and one
event will facilitate the
other, pointing to im-
provements in transporta-
bon infrastructure and in-
creased international
awareness as examples.

Bill Watt's Worlds
ON THE TUBE:
Once again this Saturday
and Sunday, Global Televi-
sion presents The Variety
Club of Ontario Star Time
Telethon with more
celebrities than we have
space to list. Among them,
however, are Maureen For-
rester, Murray
McLaughlan, Anne
Murray -Anne
Murray?! -Burton Cumm-
ings and lighthouse.
Host will be Larry Mann
and the co-Msts ( doesn't
that sound like a kind of
salmon?) are to be Global's
Richard Brown, Thalia
Assuras and John Dawe
with Kerrie Keane, Lloyd
Bochner, Eugene Herships
a.k.a. Gene Taylor and
Sandy Hoyt.
As we say, once again
Global is presenting the ex-
travaganza and once again
we have not been asked to
tap dance. We've become
so used to rejection that we
suspect a transplant would
never work with us.
okay guys, so you don't
want us to tap dance but
couldn't you arrrange for
us to dance a tango with
gorgeous Thalia Assuaas?
RUN FREEZERS:
Tomorrow from noon un-
til 2 p.m. Shopsy's heli will
do its bit for the Variety
Club with the sixth annual
July In February Outdoor
Bar-B-Que featuring many
of the people to be seen on
the telethon cooking and
selling hot dogs -
Ail weiners and buns
have been donated and all
money collected will go to
the telethon.
Watch particularly for
Joan Rivers in the person
of Garry Dee from La
Cage.
Among the many radio
and T.V. personalities in
attendance will be popular
Scott Walker from CKFM
and Don Daynard from
CIM. Nice guys but they
can't tap dance. Oh well.
THEATRE NOTES:
Tonight promises to be
quite an exciting one for
Nicky Holt who plays Little
Cassette in Les Miserables
at the Royal Alex. ( She is
not incidentally to be con-
fused with Micky Nolte who
appears in the Orion film
Everybody Wins.)
Young Miss Holt will be
attending Spectrum Alter-
native School for highly
motivated grades seven
and eight students starting
next September. Tonight.
some of her future
classmates will be in the
audience as Vicky does her
not inconsiderable stuff.
What an original way to
break the social ice!
This Sunday's enter-
tainers at Classical
Cabaret at the George Ig-
natieff Theatre (you really
should see it) will be tenor
Dennis Giesbrecht, ac-
tor singer Richard March
and musical theatre per-
former Judy Marshak.
Guest Master of
Ceremonies is to be
Michael Sanderson, who is
Chairman and C.E.O. of
Merril Lynch, Canada. He

is also cutting quite a swath
in the local performing arts
scene. We recall with
pleasure seeing him play-
ing a major role in the Na-
tional Ballet's Nutty Nut-
cracker at The O'Keefe.
One can't help wondering
if, in the light of recent cor-
porate mergers, Mr.
Sanderson is hedging his
bets by preparing a stow
biz career. We could teach
him to tap dance.
Alright then; you still
haven't seen The Phantom
of the Opera at The Pan-
tages and you've just read
that it is now sold out
through to the end of the
year. Not to worry; you can
still see the Pantages and
hear some of the music
from Phantom before then.
Twice each Sunday from
Feb. 18th through to Mar.
4th, The Pantages is
presenting The Music of
Andrew Lloyd Webber in
Concert. This is an all
Canadian production (con-
gratulations Mr. Drabin-
sky) featuring some 65
musicians and singers in-
cluding special guest ap-
rarances by leading per-
formers from The Phan-
tom.
Performance times are 3
to 7:30 p.m. Tickets are
now on sale in prices rang-
ing from SM to SM. Here's a
ft
tip if the top price seems a
little steep for a tight
budget. Of course everyone
wishes to be as close to the
performers as possible but
.. every seat in the Pan-
tages offers an excellent
view. The lowest price
seats are one of Toronto's
entertainment bargains.
Should you plan to make
an evening of it, here's
another tip and you must
believe us when we say that
we're not shilling for
anyone. Try dining at the
venerable Silver Rail.
Order the grilled liver and
onions. It's dan, dan, dan-
dy'.
ON RECORD:
The Downchild Blues
Band used to feature a
young lady on piano who
played boogie-woogie in a
style that made one recall
Mary -Lou Williams. She
died quite tragically too
young. To our discredit, we
cannot recall her name but
can't forget her excellent
keyboard work.
Downchild's latest album
on Stony Plain is Gane
Fishing and we notice that
the pianist is now one Gene
Taylor. To the best of our
knowledge it's not the same
Gene Taylor who will be
appearing this weekend on
the Variety Telethon.
On Side 2, Cut 2 there is a
W
r 1 1
composition Rodin' little
Boogie featuring Mr.
Taylor and he is a worthy
successor to the young lady
whose name we cannot
recall. Iris left hand is vir-
tually the equal of that of
the late Albert Ammons.
His over all eight to the bar
is also satisfying though
one could wish for more in
the middle range and less
flirtation with honky conk.
The album itself is stan-
dard middle rock and
worth a respectful listen
but Rockin' little Boogie is
definitely the highlight.
Good stuff.
IN PRINT:

is just a matter of time.
The land is bleak, the
climate inhospitable and
the living is difficult; like
medieval times.
In the absence of
material resources or the
technology to utilize what
little is available some
have rediscovered the
secrets of magic, among
them our three young
heroes.
They are Wellington
(Welly), bespectacled and
plump -glasses in medieval
times?-, the bookish
Heather and their older
friend Earl, a foundling
with apparently no
memory of his past.
We give away nothing by
disclosing that Earl is ac-
tually Merlin who had been
placed under a spell
thousands of years earlier
by Morgan Le Fay. When
his heritage is discovered,
the three youngsters set out
to fund and bring back to
the world the court of King
Arthur.
We repeat that older
readers will soon an-
ticipate the narrative
twists but younger ones
will pertnaps not. The books
are a reasonably fresh
bridging of the post-
nuclear debacle and high
fantasy genres. We look
forward to the next if only
to see what finally happens
to Morgan be Fay.
ART SEEN:
Very nice to be at Moven-
pick ( York Street) recently
for the latest exhibition of
paintings by Manfred
Fein -Bazex. Once again
the gentleman is employ-
ing acrylic on canvas and
once again the results are
pleasing to the eye.
Mr. Heine-Baux's works
are strongly influenced by
those of Van Gogh and in
fact could even be describ-
ed as flash Van Gogh.
There is the same compell-
ing strength of c claw burl
none of the gloom
sometimes associated with
them. In fact there is con-
siderable and unabashed
sentimentality in many of
them, in particular those of
Mistral the daft.
Unfortunately in the
crush of the crowd of well
wishers we became
separated from our note
book-ratber a nice pen with
it as well -and are writing
these not from memory,
a very pleasant memory
we make haste to add.
However, we are unable to
offer comments on each
painting.
Astute readers will
nonetheless have gathered
that all are of uniform ex-
cellence and all warranted
to bring Joy.
Given the radiance of the
Paintings one can crib from
Hamlet and describe this
latest exhibition as a hit, a
palpable hit.
PARTY TIME:
We regret that prior com-
mitments conspired to
keep us from attending In-
grid Hamilton's annual
party at the Great Hall,
1067 Queen St. W. but we
were there in spirit.

Rare Cheetah Cubs
Born At Metro Toronto Zoo
Three rare cheetah cubs,
one female and two males,
have been born at the
Metro Toronto Zoo.
Cheetahs are an en-
dangered species in the
wild and since they do not
reproduce well in zoos, this
birth is especially signifi-
cant.
The Oct. 27th birth
represents only the second
cheetah birth in the 15 year
history of the Metro Toron-
to Zoo. It is also an impor-
tant achievement for the
Species Survival Flan for
cheetahs, a cooperative
project among zoos
worldwide to preserve this
endangered species into
the Reellattioonsh mong the
Zoo's male and female
cheetahs have been more
than a little platonic in re-
cent years.- Operating on
the premise that
"familiarity breeds
boredom", we arranged to
trade several cheetahs
back and forth with the
African lion Safari. As the
result of this "mix and
match" approach, suc-
cessful breeding took
place.
Careful monitoring of the
cubs by their keepers led to
the early detection of
health problems in the
female and she was remov-
ed for emergency life-
saving surgery. Shortly
after this, the two male
cubs began to lose weight,
and were takers to toe Zoo's
Health Unit at the age of
about two and a half weeks.
As a result of the separa-
tion from their mother,
unavoidable for health
reason:, the cubs will not
be reintroduced to the
adults for several months
and will not be on public
may until spring -
PROPERTY
ASSESSMENT
and your 1990 Municipal and School Taxes
Regional Assessment Offices located throughout Ontario are responsible
for assessing all real property for the purposes of municipal and school
taxation.
Assessment Rolls are prepared and delivered to municipalities which
use them to set mill rates and calculate property tax bills. The amount
of property tax you will pay on your home or business in 1990 is determined
by multiplying the assessed value of your property by the mill rate.
If you want to learn more about your property assessment, the Regional
Assessment Office invites you to attend its Open House Session.
Open House Sessions
Open Houses are held in every municipality
at convenient times and locations to provide
you with the opportunity to discuss your
assessment with the staff of the Regional
Office.
An assessor will be pleased to explain the
basis of your property assessment and is
authorized to amend any inaccurate infor-
mation prior to the delivery of the Assess-
ment Roll to your municipality.
If you have any questions, but are unable
to attend the Open House, please contact
your Regional Assessment Office at the
address or telephone number shown below.
Notice of Property Valuation
Property owners and tenants will receive a
Notice of Property Valuation if information
relating to their property assessment was
clanged daring the past year, if the assess-
ment was appealed last year, or if there has
been a general reassessment in the munici-
pality. If you receive a Notice of Property
Valuation, it may reflect changes you have
requested in your school support designa-
tion, in the amount of your assessed value,
or other recorded information on last year's
Notice.
Appeal procedure
If, after attending your local Open House,
you are still dissatisfied with your assess-
ment, you have the right to appeal it to the
Assessment Review Board. This Board is
responsible for determining whether the
assessment under appeal is fair and
equitable with the assessments of similar
properties in the vicinity. The Assessment
Review Board is more informal and relaxed
than a regular court of law.
Appeal Deadline
The find date for appealing your assessment
is March 20, 1990.
If you wish to appeal your assessment,
you can use the form provided on the back
of your Notice of Property Valuation, write
a letter, or use a Notice of Appeal form.
You need to include your property address,
roll number, and the reason for the appeal.
Your appeal must be filed on or before
March 20, 1990.
To assist you, Notice of Appeal forms
and the address of the Regional Registrar of
the Assessment Review Board are available
at Open Houses, your Regional Assessment
Office, or your municipal office.

Many of us make the
same New Year's resolu-

Losing W'eigbt-The
Number One Resolution
According to the
American Medical
Association, an estimated
34 million Americans are at
least 20 percent overweight
- an all time high. Some 124
million of these people are
categorized as seriously
obese, which means
they're at least 40 percent
overweight. To combat the

problems, approximately
two-fifths of all Americans
are following some weight
loss plan at any given mo-
ment.
The problem is that long-
term weight loss through
dieting alone is virtually
impossible. Medical
research indicates that
when you reduce your
caloric intake, your body
responds by slowing its
metabolism ( the rate at
which it consumes
calories).
According to Joel Gurin,
in his article "Diets Aone
Don't work -The Set Point
Theory", which appears in
the January 1990 issue of
Personal Fitness and
Weight Loss magazine,
every individual has a
tendency for a particular
body -fat percentage. This
"set point" functions as a
fat -monitoring process that
tries to maintain the body
fat content it c, iders to
be "normal".
It's easy to raise your set
point by eating sweets and
fats, but the only way to
lower it is by regular
aerobic exercise. If you at-
tempt to redi" body fat by
dieting alone, you'll first
lose water, then muscle
and finally fat. You'll also
feel sluggish and weak
because youir body is burn-
ing muscle for energy.
The set point theory also
suggests that your body
further fights to maintain
its predetermined body fat
percentage by lowering
your metabolic rate and in-
creasing your appetite,
which makes it even more
difficult to lose that fat.
Regular aerobic exercise
burns more calories while
you're exercising, and in-
creases your metabolic
rate for up to 24 hours after
you exercise. Studies have
also shown that exercise
can help you keep your ap-
petite under control, which
is why many aerobic ex-
perts recommend exercis-
ing before meals.
In her "Good Food
Book", health expert Jane
Brody explains that
regular exercise causes
body fat to be replaced by
lean muscle tissue. Pound
for pound, muscle tissue
uses more calories to sus-
tain itself than fat tissue
does. The more muscle
tissue you have and the less
body fat, the more calories
you can consume without
gaining weight - or the
faster you can lose weight
without drastically reduc-
ing the amount of calories
you consume. Further-
more, muscle tissue takes
up less room than the same
weight of body fat, so that
even if you don't lose an
ounce, you'll look thinner if
you have good muscle tone
and less fat, says Brody.
Accomplish Other Goals
Recent research shows
that exercise strengthens
the body's immune system,
so it can fight off infections
and diseases, according to
The National Exercise For
Life khstitute. In addition,
studies have shown that
those who exercise more
are less bothered by the
pain they do have.
Being fit also offers other
important benefits, such as
reducing cholesterol, con-
trolling blood pressure, and
lowering your risk of adult-
onset diabetes. It can also
dimmate back plain and
many of the negative ef-
fects of stress.
To maximize the benefits
of aerobic exercise, you
need to exercise about half
an hour, three to four days
a week. To build car-
diovascular fitness, the ex-
ercise must elevate your
heart rate to at least 60% of
your maximum heart rate
( although the most
(k-girable heart rate for ex-
erL [sing is between 70 and
85% of maximum).
Enjoy Exercise
The most effective forms
of aerobic exercise are con-
tinuous motion activities,
such as jogging, aerobic
dancing, swimming, brisk
walking, cycling, cross-
country skiing or total body
exercises like Nordic -
Track.
Because cross-country
skiing is recognized as the
world's best and most ef-
fective form of total body
aerobic exercise, many
people are using the Nor-
dicTrack, the original
cross-country ski exercise
machine. NordicTrack is
the most efficient exercise
in terms of calories burned
per minute and total body
toning.
The purpose of The Na-
tional Exercise For We In-
stitute is to collect and
disseminate information an
the value of regular
aerobic exercise, in order
to encourage more people
to start and maintain their
own exercise program.

Business Community News
EAO Group Challenges Industry
In response to growing
public concern about the
unmanageable amount of
garbage produced daily in
Ontario, Environmental
Action Ontario (EAO) is
targeting the fast-food and
grocery industries in a
campaign to reduce un-
necessary and en-
vironmentally destructive
packaging.
In North America,
packaging waste is the
single largest component of
the municipal waste
stream. By industry
estimates, 55 million
pounds of fast-food packag-
ing enters the waste
stream annually in Ontario
alone.
EAO feels that recently
announced recycling in-
itiatives from the fast-food
industry are an inadequate
response to the garbage
crisis. For example.
polystyrene or 'styrofoam'
food containers must be
thoroughly washed and
dried before they can be
recycled, thereby using the
same resources that could
be used to clean reusable
ware, like plates and
cutlery.
The campaign will seek
support from community
groups and municipalities
across Ontario to reduce
the use of throwaway
packaging at super-
markets and fast-food
restaurants, and use re-
usable packaging instead.

Metro Council News
from Ken Morrish
Councillor Scarborough Highland Creek
The audit by Canviro Cocnultants at the Highland Creek
Treatment Plant was completed in October 1989. 'Mis audit
was addressing many of the concerns of the residents
located in the area from odour to air and water pollution,
particularly compounds dispersed from the plant into the
air and water. It was found that the Highland Creek Treat-
ment Plant generally conformed to design practices in the
industry and it's operation represents the '-best manage-
ment practices
We still receive numerous calls about the odour from the
plant depending on which direction the wind is blowing
from, particularly if it comes from the south, south east or
west Knowing the H.C.T.P. is potentially the source of ob-
jectionable odour emissions, a more aggressive odour
surveillance program should be instituted. Further
qualifications of emission of volatile organics -i.e
chloroforms 1 and their levels in local ambient air will be
conducted. Also incinerator ash is classified as a non-
hazardous, non -registrable solid waste under regulation
309.
Some recommendations have already been completed
and a new mass -spectrometer will be installed this spring
in order to monitor incinerator emissions. A recommenda-
tion which I will fully support is that the 'Metro Works
Department should continue to meet with the Ad Hoc Com-
mittee of the C.C.R.A. on a regular basis to review the
plant's operation and odour complaints, and to maintain
communication between the plant and the community. Im-
provements are ort -going at the Highland Creek Treatment
Plant, however there still may be times when difficulties
arise. When they do, please do not hesitate to call my office
(391-4055) and we will try to have the problem corrected as
quickly as possible.
My office has also received a large number of calls con-
cerning problems with public transportation. We all know
that Metro, and especially east Scarborough. depend on
new initiatives in rapid transit. There must be an
amalgamated system between GO Trains and the T.T.0 at
the Guild and Rouge stations. I feel that with the problems
of increased pollution, traffic gridlock and the cost of park-
ing going up every day. that one solution would be to
mobilize every transportation tool we have at our disposal.
Propane powered buses, subways, and electrified GO
Trains that are frequent and reasonable are several ways
we could get people to convert from cars to public trartspor-
tation.
Your ideas and suggestions on how we can help solve this
growing transportation problem would be appreciated.
Please %Tire to me at my Metro office, 390 Bay Street, Suite
307, Toronto, M5H 3Y7 with your suggestions.

PICKERING NATURALISTS
Wild and Free is the name of a multi projector slide
........... ..........................
with Rene Soetens, M.P.
For the past 19 years, the Taxation division of Revenue
Canada has sponsored a community-based program that
provides assistance to people who, for any number of
reasons, are unable to complete their income tax returns or
pay for assistance to have their returns prepared. The Com-
munity Volunteer Program has proved to be an outstanding
success. Each year, thousands of volunteers participate to
help others in their community.
Revenue Canada encourages groups and associations to
organize small group training sessions at which a represen-
tative from Revenue Canada attends. Changes to the in-
come tax returns are reviewed and reference material is
supplied to each volunteer. Once the training is completed,
the volunteer helps others in the community, especially low
income earners, immigrants, the elderly and the disabled,
to complete their returns.
I believe that becoming a tax volunteer is an excellent
and generous way to give to your community. With a
minimum of time and effort, you can help those less for-
tunate in our community. Individuals, or community
groups and associations who are interested in organizing
this community service, can contact the Public Affairs sec-
tion of the Scarborough District Taxation Office, to arrange
a time and place for training. The phone number is 973-4163.

secure a better future for all residents of Ontario.

lands to provide affordable starter homes for first-time
buyers and non-profit homes for those who rent.
EDUCATION
Operating grants to school boards will be increased by 8.7
percent and capital grants by 7.1 percent for the next fiscal
year.
• Legislation was introduced in October that will make On-
tario's system of financing education more equitable bet-
ween public and separate school boards. Over six years, an-
nual grant increases of $30 million per year will be used for
this purpose.
• In 1990.91 the Ontario Government will provide more than

' The Power Corporation Act, which asserts Ontario's
authority over its electricity in the light of Free Trade,
received Royal Assent on October 16, 1989.
FRENCH LANGUAGE SERIV7CES
• French Language Senices will now be provided in the
central offices of the Ministries of the Government of On-
tario and in their offices located in the 22 areas designated
