About Quebec
Dear Editor
Certain French Canadians are playing with Canada, the
favouritism all on the side of Quebec.
Since 1961. (Convention of the Estates General of French
Canada, under the auspices of the St. Jean Baptiste Socie-
ty) when resolutions were agreed upon as follows- "to turn
Quebec into a sovereign state where French would be the
only official language, English-speaking residents would be
forced to learn French .. screen immigrants, promote a
higher birth rate in Quebec .. also government control of all
mass media, especially news agencies and braodcasting . .
a Quebec take-over of various fields - foreign relations,
defence, transport and communications, all economic af-
fairs, broadcasting, health, welfare, labour manpower, im-
migration, agriculture, housing and research", Quebec has
desired independence but an association with the rest of
Canada in an economic union of equals. The above resolu-
tions were made with one thought only and that was to give
maximum power and favour to Quebec. They have achiev-
ed much of the above but they must be stopped from going
further in their selfish desires to bleed the nest of Canada!
The French Canadians in Quebec and outside of Quebec
cannot be totally to blame for this violation of Canadian uni-
ty, but if they do nothing about it, they are just as much to
blame!
The advance of the Roman Catholic religion seems to go
hand in hand with the forcing of the French language,
especially in Ontario! Our people are continually being
separated by the authorizing of separate schools with par-
tial religious training allowed in them as opposed to public
schools with noire allowed.
Until the average Canadian realizes this, irregardless of
their faith, we will never have a united people. Boards of
Education are not performing their proper function. They
farget that they owe their allegiance to us. the taxpayer, not
to the government that blackmails them with our money.
We must speak up individually and collectively to regain
and maintain our rights!
Trudeau did not want Quebec to separate because if it
did, it would have less power in the federal government. His
words were "why have part of Canada when we can have
all of it?". Remember Jean Chretien was and is still one of
his confidents!
True Canadians must take an interest in what has hap-
pened and what could happen. If we do not, we will be total
subjects of the result. These threats in our society right now
could impede the progress and positive evolution of
Canada. Democracy is our key note with wisdom and com-
mon sense in our overtures. Only by exposing the whole
scheme nationwide can we redirect Canada back to bar
mony for all and favouritism for none!
Fellow Canadians, we have an unrelenting challenge
ahead of us' Take time to seek out the verification of the
above. Don't be led down the proverbial '-le jardin" path.

STATFACTS
What will Canada's population be like in the century
dawning just 10 years from now? Here are some current
facts and probabilities according to Statistics Canada
demographers.
It's true for us both as individuals and as a national
population: we're growing older. Statistics Canada figures
show that people 65 and over made tip just over 8% of the
population in 1971 but this was up to 10.7% by 1996. By 2001,
the figure probably will be about 14%
As Canada's population ages, the number of "senior"
seniors also increases. In turn, this brings a need for more
care facilities. From 1971 to 1996, Statistics Canada figures
show the proportion of people 75 and over living in institu-
tions went from 14% to 20% for women, from 9% to 12% for
men.
Continuation of the current aging trend will result in a
population of about 318,000 seniors needing institutional ac-
commodation by the year 2001, according to Statistics
Canada figures. This compares with about 143,000 seniors
requiring such care in 1986.
Since the 1970s, the fertility rate has been below the level
where population is maintained at a steady level, Statistics
Canada figures show. The rate, the average number of bir-
ths over a woman's lifetime, was 1.7 in I.M.

Hydro Teams Up With
Can. Tire For Campaign
For the second year in a row. Ontario Hydro is teaming
up with a major hardware retailer to bring discount
coupons on the purchase of energy saving products to con -
Canadian Tire will offer discounts ranging from 50 cents
to $2o on the purchase of any of 3D energy saving products
bought in their stores from Oct. 1 to 27. A coupon book being
distributed province -wide lists the qualifying products -
everything from caulking to energy efficient showerheads
and microwave ovens.
Canadian Tire won its role in this promotion in a tendered
competition among major hardware retailers. Contenders
were evaluated on factors such as their volume of retail
traffic, distribution network and the value of discounts they
could offer.
Hydro set the kind of products to be included in the
promotion -such as light timers -and Canadian Tire chose

Ontario Hydro Defers
Restart Of Hearn Plant
A forcast of electricity use over the next three years has
led to the deferral of the restart of the R.L. Hearn Thermal
Generating Station and the siting of combustion turbine
units (CTUs), Ontario Hydro has announced.
"A review of the forecasted load growth in electricity use
indicates that the additional energy supplied by Hearn and
CTUs is not required at this time," said Ken Snelson, On-
tario Hydro's manager of Demand/ Supply Integration.
Two natural gas units at the Hearn station were schedul-
ed to be restarted in late 1991 and proposed CTUs were to be
in-service in 19M and 1994. The need for additional genera-
tion was based on a forecasted growth in electricity use that
is no longer expected to materialize given a slow -down in
the economy.
Since the Hearn restart and the siting of CTUs were an-
nounced in March 1990, revised forecasts have suggested
that load growth over the next three years will be from 300
to 700 megawatts less than previously forecasted. The
deferrals are the result of a fine-tuning or immediate load
forecast and do not affect forecasts of long-term growth.
Restarting the Hearn generating station and installing
CTUs are two options proposed in Ontario Hydro's proposed
Plan balances the future demand and supply of electricity
by blending aggressive energy efficiency programs with
additional hydro -electric capability, fossil and nuclear
generating stations and electricity purchases. The Plan
contains a number of scenarios for growth in electricity use
and proposes numerous options for meeting that growth.
The Hearn re -start and the siting of CTUs are among the op-
tions adaptable for meeting growth in the immediate
future.
"'lire decision to defer both the restart of the Hearn and
the siting of CTUs demollistrates the Plan's flexibility in
meeting Ontario's changing energy needs," said Snelson.
The Plan pacts that over the next 25 years, energy de-
mand in Ontario will continue to grow and there will be a
need for new supply as well as a need to replace aging
generating stations.
In keeping with public input received during preparation
of the Plan, Hydro is committed to making the best use of
existing generating stations, said Snelson. He added that
Hearn will again come under serious consideration for
restarting if the load forecast increases.
Although all of Hearn's eight generating units were
mothballed by 1963, electrical equipment at the station con-
tinues to be used to regulate electricity voltage in the
Toronto area, Snelson said.
The =3D million asbestos removal program already
underway at the Hearn will continue with an expected carr
pletion date of December, 1991.
Hearn was also one of six existing generating station sites
in southern Ontario considered for the installation of com-
bustim turbine units. Environmental studies for these can-
didate sites will continue although their in-service dates
have been deferred. The other candidate sites being studied
are Lennox Generating Station, near Kingston, Lakeview
GS in Mississauga, Nanticoke GS near Port Dover, J.C.
Kath GS in Windsor. and Lambton GS near Sarnia.
Located on Unwin Ave., near the Leslie Street Spit, the
eight -unit Hearn statim was built to rum on coal. The first
four units, each 100 megawatts in size, went into service
between 1951 and 1953. They were recommissioned to nun on
natural gas in 1971 and mothballed in 1979 and 1960. Units 5
to 8, each 200 megawatts in sue, want into service in 1960
and 1961. In 1971 and 1972, they were recommissioned to
burn either coal or gas. Unit 5 was mothballed in 1990 and
units 6 to 8 were mothballed in 1983.

village. In the 1950's the
community was bustling
with young families star-
ting their lives together
after the war, and moving
from the "city" to take ad-
vantage of a quieter
lifestyle and larger lots.
By 1951, the Lord family
(which by now included
three daughters) became a
part of Knox United Church
where Lucile and Wally are
still very active members.
Wonderful friendships
were made through school
and church associations, as
well as various other
groups, which have lasted
through the
years -
Wally and Lucile have
both made significant con-
tributions to their com-
murtity. When Scarborough
Centenary Hospital was
opened, it became an impor-
tant focus for both of them.
Lucile was the first presi-
dent of the auxiliary and
Wally served on the Board
of Directors in various
capacities. They are
strongly committed to
helping others in any way
they can.
Wally and Lucile enjoy
spare time pursuits both in-
dependently and together.
Some of these include play-
ing bridge and socializing
with friends and family.
Florida jaunts. golf, curl-
ing and even continuing
their education at
Scaborough College.
On Sun- Oct. 21st this
wonderful couple will be
hosting an afternoon rec-ep
tion at Scarborough Golf
and Country Club so their
family. including their six
grandchildren, relatives
and friends may help them
celebrate this very special
occasion.

Bill Watt's Worlds
UKRAINE:
How's that for a catchy
cut line? Now that we
hopefully have your in-
terest, be advised please,
of an interesting program
to be presented on CHCH-
Channel Eleven this Sun-
day from 5:30 p.m. to 6
p.m.
It is a documentary titled
the Hamilton -Ukraine
Friendship Games and it
documents the cultural and
athletic exchange that took
place when 24 young
athletes from Hamilton
visited the Ukrainian city
of Uzhgorod for the 19th
Annual Children's Friend-
ship Games.
The Canadian contingent
faced athletes from Italy,
Spain, Andore, Israel,
Switzerland and
CZeckoslovakia in swimm-
ing, track and field, tennis
and table tennis.
We haven't had the op-
portunity to see the pro-
gram in an advance
screening but are prepared
to recommend it sight un-
seen if for no other reason
than to voice our approval -
for what ever it might be
worth -of the concept and
idea behind these games.
They are what athletic
endeavours should be all
about .. youngsters com-
peting With skill and deter-
urination while never
forgetting that the games
are the thing. There can be
only one winner in any
competition. That is to say
there can be only one
declared winner but all
contestants should be con-
sidered winners simply by
qualifying.
The Olympic Ideal is now
as dead as Avery Brundage
but perhaps games of this
nature can bring about a
resurrection.
Good luck to them and
good viewing.

For those who might not
be aware, here is a brief
history of the musical.
First there was the book,
Auntie Mame by Patrick
Dennis. (Or was it Dennis

a stage comedy also titled
Auntie Mame and it pretty
well revitalized the career
of Rosalind Russell.
It was made into a mo-

Rosalind Russell and was
quite successful.

We stress that because

which was a hit for Edye
Gorme. We most certainly
look forward to seeing Miss
Prowse again. She is a good
singer and still one of the
best dancers around, with a
high kick not seen since the
glory days of Charlotte
Greenwood.
The last time we saw her
was at The O'Keefe in a
show titled I Do, I Do which
was a musical version of
The Four Poster.
Anyone out there with a
long enough memory to
recall her leading man? It
was Rock Hudson .. and
she made him look good
Incidentally, Juliet Pro-
wse is no stranger to the
role of Mame. She played it
in the original l,ondon Pro-

Kirk Douglas' Dance
With the Devil ( Random
House) is not a bad first
novel. Not bad at all. Mind
yow we are rather much of
the opinion that if this were
not Kirk Douglas, the ac-
tor, it might not have sur-
vived first draft.
It did, however, and
deserves to do well.
Mr. Douglas' writing
style is sophomoric but just
enough so to make one
think in terms of raw
talent. There is. for exam-
ple. another word for penis
rather than the synonym
for a rooster. One can say
urinate instead of the letter
that precedes Q in the
alphabet.
Hopefully, with more ex-
penence and: or less in-
dulgent editors his future
books will have some
polish.
Briefly, Dance With the
Devil is the story of one
Danny Dennison a
Hollywood director trying
to find artistic fulfillment
while hiding the fact that
he is Jewish and a survivor
of the Holocaust. He has
chosen to eschew his
Judaism out of fear rather
than shame but the former
becomes the latter until
finally he must come to
terms with his destiny.
Migawd, now we're star-
ting to write like Mr.
Douglas!
Do not let us dissuade
you from reading the book
as it is, in the main, en-
joyable.
We suggest, however,
that you might be more
comfortable waiting for it
in paperback.
WORD POWER:
1n German and Yiddish,
the word Gansel means
"gosling" and thus an inex-
perienced youth. The word
was picked up around 1900
by U.S. hobos and crooks
and acquired the special
sense of a youth accompa-
nying an older man as a
sexual partner.

Local Teachers Host Recital

O. R. M. T. A. will be Master of Ceremonies. The young artist
will perform works by Scarlatti, Beethoven and Schumann.
This recital is one in a series of six - part of the prize

The Turnaround Decade
by Lois James
The Social Planning
Council of Scarborough has
announced the theme of its
annual public forum mon-
thly series for 1990-91 will
be "The Turnaround
Decade".
The term was used by
Dr. David Suzuki in his con-
clusion of a keynote ad-
dress to an environmental
conference in Toronto one
year ago. Concluding on a
positive note, Dr. Suzuki
said that if we worked hard
to find solutions to the en-
vironmental problems fac-
ing us, and taught our
children to respect the
earth, the '90s would be
"The Turnaround
Decade."
In adopting this theme,
SPCS will seek to go
beyond describing current
social, economic and en-
vironmental problems and
trends, to provide a
positive, constructive
framework within which
solutions may be found.
SPCS believes Scar-
borough citizens want to
assume an active role in
changing the ways we
relate to the earth, com-
munities and each other.
Awareness of problems is a
step in the right direction,
but in the '90s action is
needed. Our efforts will
determine the fate of future
generations.

Smart Selling Begins With The Right
Price, Says Local Realtor
Scarborough, October 17, 1990 - The biggest mistake home sellers can make is fa0 tg to
W the right asking price for their property says Don Brown, manager of the local branch
of Family Trust.
"You have to be realistic about what your home is worth in relation to other comparable
properties which have recently sold or are being offered for sale in the area," Brown
states. if you price too low, you'll be doing yourself out of proceeds that should be yours;
but if you price too high you will take considerably longer to sell your property, and will
undoubtably achieve a lesser amount. By initially pricing the property correctly you can
avoid costly, aggravating obstacles."
TERMS OF SALE ARE IMPORTANT TOO.
Offering a wide variety of financing options is a valuable selling feature, resulting in a
wider range of prospective buyers who can qualify to purchase the property, adds Brown.
"Increasing the number of prospects in the buying pool not only increases the likelihood
of a successful sale, but also shortens the marketing period."
In order to set a fair and realistic price for a property, the seller needs to look carefully at
the several factors that influence a property's value.
"Location is still the Number One factor• but it isn't the only one by any means." says
Brown. "You also have to consider current value trends, that is "what's hot and what's
not" in home features. Whereas solariums may have been all the rage last year, a
European kitchen may be the biggest selling point this year. Homes are as vulnerable to
fashion whims as personal wardrobes.
"The condition of your property compared to others in the area, and the number of
improvements that you have made, or conversely, that need to be made. are important
pricing factors. "Some relatively inexpensive improvements, such as minor landscaping
can give the property a cleaner fresher appearance than other homes in the
neighbourhood and increase a property's market value. At the same time, other more
costly improvements, such as an inground swimming pool, which can be considered a
maintenance nuisance by some buyers, will not necessarily pay for themselves," Brown
explains.
An analysis of recent prices obtained by other sellers in the same area is essential before
any price is set. stresses Brown. "Qualified buyers and their real estate representatives
have been looking in your area, and have become quite familiar with current asking prices.
An over -priced property can go stale after those first important few weeks it is on the
market and getting the most exposure. When the price is adjusted later, the house is often
overlooked."
Obtaining sound advice from a professional real estate agent before entering the home
sale forum is the wisest first step a seller can take, notes Brown.
"It is your agent's responsibility to help you sell your home in the shortest period of time
possible at the best price. In addition to their experience and knowledge of home selling
procedures, they also offer the support and backing of a real estate company with such
services as pre -approved financing and equity advance programs, for prospective buyers.
"Calling on their vast network of personal contacts the real estate agent organizes your
individual marketing plan• includes your property in their classified advertising as well as
publicizing it in the company's various branches."
Brown invites anyone who is thinking of selling their home to contact the Scarborough
East Family Trust office to arrange a no -charge. no -obligation evaluation of their property
and discuss any concerns they might have about the home selling process.
Family Trust Corporation is the largest privately -owned real estate company in Canada. It
has 42 real estate, financial services, and leasing offices in and around the greater
Toronto area. including the recent acquisition of the seven downtown Toronto branches
of Darrell Kent Real Estate.

A Stamp To Remember Agnes Macphail
Agnes Campbell Mac-
phail ( 18941961). the first
woman elected to Canada's
Parliament and a noted
social reformer, was
recognized for her political
achievement on Oct. 9 with
the issue of a postage
stamp commemorating the
centennial of her birth.
Raised in Ceylon, a small
town In Southwestern On-
tario, Agnes Campbell
Macphail received her
education at Owen Sound
and Stratford Collegiate
and taught in the country
schools so dear to her
heart.
Interested in agricultural
problems, she became a
member of the United
Farmers of Ontario in 1919
and began speaking out on
their behalf. That same
year, women gained the
right to run for Parliament.
Two years later, the
farmers asked Macphail to
rum in the Grey South East
riding. She won.
In 1921, at age 31, Agnes
Macphail became the first
woman member of Parlia-
ment. She sat as a member
of the Progressive Party,
which was affiliated with
Ontario Farmers. Later
she became an independent
and eventually served in
the Ontario legislature as a
representative and
organizer of the Co-
operative Commonwealth
Federation (C.C.F.) the
forerunner of the NDP.
As a respected
parliamentarian and
public speaker for almost
three decades, Macphail
was renowned for her wit
and tenacity, which she at-
tributed to her Scottish far-
ming parents: "I owed it to
my father that I was
elected to Parliament in
the first place, but I owed it
•:::•:::'•;�•f"•.,•.•O::•`:•=::�::' to my mother that I stuck it
.•.........
10:30 MCA:Moneywatch with out once I got there."
Michael Hayden
11:00 News Review In addition to her
11:30Toroto:Living With straightforward and
r ' 12:00 ColmDSmtnity Messam ' "-outspoken approach on
many social issues, she
held strong pacifist views.
She denounced the Royal
Military College as being
an extravagant and elitist
institution. She advocated
peacetime gymnastic pro
grams instead of cadet
training which she felt was
geared to attracting the
young by glorifying the
tragedy of war. In 1928,
when Canada signed the
Briand-Kellogg peace pact,
she urged the Canadian
government to consider
total disarmament.
While rural issues were
always her utmost con-
cern. she devoted much of
her time to prison reform,
helping to organize the
FJizabeth Fry Society and
to establish the Arc ham-
bault Commission HI 1935,
which investigated
Canada's prisons.
Her antimilitarism led
her to become the first
woman member of the
Canadian delegation to a
League of Nations con-
ference where she served
on the Disarmament Com-
mittee. She supported
women's acquisition of
civil rights and was respon-
sible for Ontario's fust
equal pay for equal work
legislation in 1961.
The stamp design
created by Eskuld Waddell
of Toronto combines a por-
trait of Agnes Macphail in
the 1930s with an image of
Parliament in the
background. The colourful
collage -style both suggests
the period and celebrates
the site of her many
political achievements. A
total of 15 million of these
commemorative stamps
have been printed in seven -
colour lithography.

It's Called The Accounting Game
It's called The Accoun-
ting Game, and its aim is to
teach a semester of ac-
counting in just one day,
without studying, lectur-
ing, or memorizing.
The Accounting Game is
coming to the Holiday Inn
in Scarborough on Oct.
29th. says Dunwoody &
Company, Chartered Ac-
countants, in Toronto.
How does the game
work?
Through "Quantum
Education" - a combina-
tion of relaxation techni-
ques and psychological
stimulation that make par-
ticipants receptive, as
never before, to understan-
ding numbers.
The Accounting Game,
according to Dunwoody
Partner Bob Babensee,
uses a child's lemonade
stand as a business model.
Participants are given a
game board, playing
pieces, and workbook that
represent their cash, inven-
tory, fixed assets,
liabilities and equity.
The players work at (or
rather play at) making a
lemonade stand a suc-
cessful venture. In the pro-
cess, they learn all about
inventory, debt, invest-
ment, depreciation, ac-
crual vs. cash accounting
and the relationship bet-
ween the balance sheet and
income statement.
The game is presented in
a simple non -threatening
way that appeals to begin-
ners without accounting
knowledge. as well as
veterans in the business
world who are secretly in
the dark about the inner
workings of financial
statements.
Mr. Babensee points out
that, "People %iw go to ac-
counting causes find them
so full of boring jargon,
they can hardly stay awake
let alone retain anything.
We're offering a furl alter-
native that wakes up the
group and invites a lot of
response."
So original is this
"superlearning" process
that the Accounting Game
has accreditation from the
American Institute of
Banking /American
Bankers Association. Par-
ticipants also receive one
CEU ( Continuing Educa-
tion Unit) from a fully ac-
credited four year bac-
calaureate college. (any
other accreditation added
here)
Interested parties may
call Bob Babensee or write

tional Office, Royal Bank

ther information.

Setterington is confident

tion of stones is the first
step twAards literacy.

magnitude of this event.
The fact that Western New
Yorkers will have a once in
a lifetime opportunity to
host thousands of visitors
from around the world
when the World University
Games take place in July of
1990, merits our education
efforts," he said.
Visitors can learn about

the Games as they walk
through the van. World
