( Photo - Bob Watson) Durham Bd. Of Education Highlights Projects to be Men - Trustees voted to direct staff to identify two schools to host modified school year pilot projects and in- itiate a process to imple- ment both a single track and multi -track at those schools. Staff will report back to the board not later than Nov. 30, 1991 on the implementation process. The Durham Board of Education has been study- ing the concept of the modified school year since late 1988. A modified school year project leader was ap- pointed several months ago and since that time a number of information ses- sions have been provided for Durham Board staff and members of the com- munity. With the great amount of work still to be done to pro- vide more information ses- sions and develop the im- plementation process for the pilot projects, trustees saw the need to continue the position of project leader, subject to annual review. Ann" Allowances Set The board passed a mo- tion to provide for its trustees. for the period Dec. 1. 1991 to Nov. 30, 1992, an annual allowance of $13,600. Chairman of Stan- ding Committees will receive $14,960., the Chair- man of the board will receive $23,800. and the Vice Chairman of the board will receive $17,000. Each trustee also will receive a conference and expense allowance of $1,750 for the first year of office; however, it was noted that few trustees actually use all of the $1,500. allowance currently allotted to them. Policy and Regulations Adopted The board adopted a policy and regulations dealing with payroll deduc- tions for non-profit I not for profit organizations. If the executives or represen- tatives of four or more employee groups, unions or federations request in writing that voluntary automatic payroll deduc- tions for any non-profit I not for profit organizations be allowed, the board may THE MONTESSORI LEARNING CENTRE 28&1722: 839-2090 / • Summer school and swimming • Daycare hours • Montesssori academic year grant, but is not obligated to grant, such a request provided the organization meets all of the outlined criteria. Currently, the on- ly payroll deductions of this type are for the purchase of computers or Canada Sav- ings Bonds or for donations to the United Way. Capital Allocations Discussed Trustees expressed their disappointment in the Capital Allocations that recently had been announc- ed at the Ministry of Education. The Durham Board of Education receiv- ed only increased site allocations for the Cadarackque P.S. and the Ormiston sites, the unnam- ed Hermitage elementary school and site, and an allocation for asbestos removal from schools. These projects were not in order or priority on the board's five year Capital Expenditure Forecast which is prepared annually and forwarded to the Ministry for its considera- tion. The total Capital Allocation for Durham came to $7.5 million. The board will send a let- ter to the Minister of Education and the Premier of Ontario requesting the rationale behind the way the Capital Grants were allocated and the validity of the board spending well over eight hundred hours each year in the prepara- tion of the Capital Expen- diture Forecast if it is not going to be used to help determine how the dollars will be allocated. Durham X -Ls Excel in Championships The Durham X -Ls Wrestling Club stood se- cond in both the Bantam and Cadet Dvisions of the Canadian Wrestling Cham- pionships held May 2-5, 1991 in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. Fifty two teams were entered in the competition. Matt McLean of Ajax H.S., Sean Burgess of Lincoln Avenue P.S.; Harold Humber of Central Park Senior P.S. and Kyle Telfer of Sunderland P.S. captured gold medals for their outstanding perform- naces. The competitors and their coaches were con- gratulated for a job well done. ro active. Statistics released by the Oshawa do District Real Estate Board show that 41% more homes were sold this June than last. ODREB members helped 403 families change residences this month, compared to 286 homes sold in June 1990. Total sales this year to the end of June is 3623, which represents a dramatic 92% increase over 1990. "Our high number of sales show that many peo- ple in Durham Region understand the stability and value of a housing in- vestment," says ODREB President I e Briscoe. Although ufe sales are still high, the average price for a resale home in the Region dropped from $158,102 ( May 1991) to $149,557 this month. Kickoff Successful Campaign Tux Ontario March of Dimes of York Durham has announced its fund raising goals for 1991,92 fiscal year. Throughout the next nine months, special events and campaigns win be co-ordinated as volunteers from the organization work to raise $97,300.

Jule to, iggi Opinion a page for expression for you and us Proud To Be Canadian by Bob Watson On July 1st all of us who are proud Canadians enjoyed ex- pressing our national spirit in parades and other ways of saying "I'm proud to be a Canadian". However, that was also the day that the Mulroney govern- ment increased our unemployment insurance premiums (and, of course, each employer pays 1.4 times each employee's contribution). The anger in Canada right now is about our governments who are not cutting their budgets but are asking constantly for more money. The GST is creating extreme ad- ministrative costs for businesses large and small - and, of course. newspapers never had to deal with sales taxes before due to an exemption for newspapers. The Mulroney government doesn't believe, apparently, in freedom of the press which until recently was a Canadian tradition. And, as CHIN Radio owner Johnny Lombardi said on July 1st. "we should be raising funds for ourselves, doing things with our own sweat. We don't need handouts." He feels ap- parently that government multicultural grants are not necessary and should be abolished. Multicultural grants are not only issued by the federal government but also the provincial government and local municipal governments. These grants should all be abolish- ed and taxes saved for more important problems, such as medical care and paying off our national debt. CMA Supports Taxes Sir The Canadian Medical Association recommended and supports tax increases on tobacco as an excellent way to prevent nicotine addiction, diisease. disability and death. The Government of Canada and the nine provincial govern- ments that have increased taxes on tobacco in 1991 have our complete support. While we respect the democratic right of the Canadian Tobacco Manufacturers Council and smokers to protest the tax increases, we believe that that protest should be re- jected- Smoking is a major cause of cancer, heart disease, em- physema and a host of other diseases. Smoking is responsi- ble for the premature death of over 35.000 Canadians every year. Tax increases have proven to be an effective way to reduce tobacco consumption, to encourage smokers to stop smoking. and most importantly. to prevent young people from starting to smoke. Canada is a world leader in efforts to reduce smoking. Tax increases have played an important part in that suc- cess. The physicians of Canada wish to express their con- gratulations and support for those tax increases. Efforts to reduce stroking are of the highest priority in Canada's health promotion program. Sincerely Carole Guzman. NI. D. President -Elect Here and There Ministry Funds Ontario Sports Centre The Ontario Sports Centre has received a $3,700,000 grant to fund administrative support services and accommoda- tions for provincial sport, active lifestyle and recreation organizations in 1991-92. Ontario Minister of Tourism and Recreation Peter North announced the funding, which helps the centre provide office space as well as ad- ministrative and consultative services. The grant is in addition to the $8.4 million which will be given this year to 81 provincial sports organizations for athlete development programs and special projects such as festivals and multi -sport seminars.

To Stop Water Fatalities The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters has join- ed forces with the Ontario Provincial Police, and other groups, to put an end to the shocking number of boating deaths recorded across Ontario each year. Recent statistics indicate that more than 1,200 Canadians drown each year, about 20 percent of those in Ontario - most e of those deaths occur in lakes and rivers, and many are anglers or hunters. So this summer, OPP officers will be checking for life jackets and handing out specially -packaged suckers to children, encouraging them to wear the proper gear. The campaign is call "Don't Be A Sucker - Wear Your life Jacket". OPP officers say that all too often, children in boats are not wearing life jackets. In 90 percent of fatalities, life jackets are found floating far from the locations where bodies have been recovered. On Ontario lakes and rivers, the OPP checks an average 3400 boats for life jackets each summer, covering about 154,000 square miles. In most checks, there are anglers aboard and 25 percent of the boats carry children. Many passengers are without life jackets. It's essential to start the right habits while boaters are still young, both OFAH and OPP officials agree. The pro- gram. which kicks off during the July 1 long weekend, also has the support of the Canadian Red Cross Society, the Royal life Saving Society of Canada, Dollco Printing and Kerr's Candv.

Crosbie. "Our strategy has three major thrusts." said Mr. Corbeil, "prevention of spills, preparedness to respond to en- vironmental emergencies in our waters, and policies, in- cluding legislation, that will improve safety and make polluters pay."

This was the first of Recycle Aluminum A joint pilot project to in- vestigate the feasibility of recycling rigid aluminum foil containers has been ap- proved by the Metropolitan Toronto Works Committee. Alcan Aluminum, Metro Toronto's Meals on Wheels agencies and the Metro Works Department will work together to recycle the aluminum food trays delivered by Meals on Wheels volunteers. For the duration of the pilot, Meals on Wheels volunteers will collect used food trays and deliver them to special depots set up by the Metro Works Depart- ment. The aluminum will then be recycled by Alcan Ingot Alloys in Guelph. Any revenue from the sale of the aluminum that is recovered during the pilot project will be returned to the Metro Toronto Meals on Wheels organization. The pilot project will in- clude an educational com- ponent. A promotional brochure, produced by Alcan Aluminum, is being distributed to volunteers in the Metro Toronto Meals on Wheels agencies, en- couraging them to par- ticipate in the program. A second brochure, aimed at the clients receiving the meals, will also be distributed through the volunteers. This brochure explains how clients should prepare and store the trays for collection. At this time, rigid aluminum foil materials are not accepted in the Metropolitan Toronto Blue Box Program. However, with the opening of the new Commissioners Street Material Recovery Facility In early 1992, material such several active militia corm panics formed in rural York County. Three times in 1365 and 1866 they were rushed by boat and train to the Niagara Frontier to de- fend Canada from threatened attack. The Scarborough Rifle Company later became No. 1 Company of the 12th Bat- talion of Infantry, or York Rangers, under the com- mand of Lieutenant- Colonel William Henry Norris. Today the 12th Bat- talion lives on as the Queen's York Rangers.

July 10, 1991 Bill Watt's Worlds "Age cannot wither her nor custom stale her in- finite variety." Though those words of Shakespeare were written in praise of a woman, they apply and always will to _the Stratford, Ontario Festival which honors his works annually. We journeyed there recently for an all too brief visit. Join us please and share just a sampling of the many pleasures to be ex- perienced... AT STRATFORD: "Much Ado About Nothing" is considered a comedy but this writer has never truly considered it as such. Granted there are comic scenes in abundance and. a happy ending. Yet, all of Shakespeare's plays have moments of comedy and most have, if not happy endings. at least satisfac- tory resolutions. The "nothing" of the title might well be a mispro- nounciation of "noting". Scholars are still arguing that but it's not our inten- tion here to enter or con- tribute to the fray no mat- ter how scholarly. We say only that the play is not a trifle: that it is a serious work about something; that the something is akin to the leaven of malice. A woman's reputation is besmirched by a man who cannot have her. Her in- tended humiliates her at the marriage altar. She swoons and feigns death to engender a denouement. Oh, it all coshes out right in the end but it remains, to us anyway. a drama. We have never been able. for example, to join in the laughter of the yahoos who laugh, as they did in this production, at Beatrice's impassioned "Kill Claudio! " So much for your cor- respondent's thoughts on the play. What about this Stratford production' Comedy or drama -and director Richard Monette keeps us nicely guessing -it is simply superb and flawless in execution. One aches over the sullied innocence of Sidonie Boil as Cleo while em- pathizing with Paul Miller as the tricked Claudio. We are in love again; this time with gorgeous Goldie Semple as the feisty Beatrice. Colm Feore does well to pursue her .. and pursues her well, with com- ic vitality and elan. U they have not already been paired as principals in the ".Taming of the Shrew". one looks forward greedily to such a pairing. Nicholas Pennell is a splendid Lenato, father of Cleo, Leon Pownall breathes new life into the often overlooked role of Don Pedro and Lorne Ken- nedy is properly and believably villainous as his bastard brother Don John who creates all the hugger- mugger. And, we are still chuckl- ing in recollection of Brian Tree and Brian Bedford as a mediaeval Laurel and Hardy in the roles of Verges and Dogberry. Mr. Bedford's takes do homage to the memory of the late Oliver Hardy after whom they are so seemingly modelled. All other members of the cast performed well also. Indeed, it is the strength of the entire cast that allows us, compels us, to label this Much Ado About Nothing as flawless. It is popularly held that Carousel is the second col- laboration of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Ham- merstein after their land- mark Oklahoma! In fact the former had started to write Oklahoma (originally to have been titled "Away We Go") with his long time collaborator Lorenz Hart. However the latter was so far advanced in his drunkenness that he was dismissed. Mr. Rodgers then asked Mr. Hammers- tein who had sustained eight straight failures to join him. The offer was ac- cepted though Hammers - tan originally rimed that Lorenz Hart's name be retained as lyricist. That request was denied and Okalhana has come to be regarded and rightly so, as the first hit of Rodgers and Hammers- tein. However. it is Carousel that was the first wort- to be theirs from inception. It shows. Structurally, it is superior to Oklahoma! musically, it has more in- trumc merit; in character delineation it is probably better than its distinguish- ed predecessor. The Stratford presenta- tion of Carousel is far and away the finest that we have ever experienced! It is lush, almost opulent, and yet the story is the thing -the story along with the glorious score and in- spired lyrics. Rodgers used to say of Hart that his lyrics were more cerebral then sentimental. That's most certainly not the case with the lyrics of Oscar Hammerstein. They're celebral enough certainly - indeed, they are almost scholarly -but they vibrate with humanity. —You'll Never Walk Alone" could be sung with reverence in a church; Bil- ly Bigelow's soliloquy on the impending birth of his child is of operatic quality of emotion; "If I Loved You" will surely be includ- ed in anthologies of love songs centuries from now. And, those are only three songs from the excellent COSYHUNGARIAN RESTAURANT t_L.B.o.

John Devorski reminds one of the young John Raitt who created the role. He sings almost as well and, something Mr. Raitt couldn't or did not do, he dances, he dances with balletic grace and con- fidence to the excellent choreography of director Brian Macdonald. Allison Grant is all strong innocence as Billy's ill -chosen wife but it is Karen Wood as the spunky Carrie, her companion, in love with the staid but sexy Mr. Snow who almost steals the stage whenever she appears. Kate Hennig is a fine figure of the wordly woman with whom Billy should have paired after their coupling and Marsha Bagwell as the kind hearted Nettie both con- tribute oo-tribute major strengths. Kudoes too for Claire Rankin and Dale Mieske for their fine ballet work close to the finale. One of the songs in Carousel contains the lines, This was a real nice clann- bake. We're mighty glad we came. Allow us please to paraphrase rather lamely �y saying this is more than a real nice producVon of Carotael; you'll be mighty glad you came. When excellence, as is the case at Stratford, becomes the norm, thea anything less becomes sub- ject to criticism and perhaps unfairly. Even so, one is constrained to say that the Hamlet production cones close to being un- satisfactory. If there must be a cause or fault found, we suggest it must lie with director David William and a less than firm directorial hand. This is an intensely physical production _ . much unnecessary shouting. cross overs and exits at speed, irrelevant body movements et al. Now, it might be that the desired effect was to make Hamlet a play of action rather than the intellectual exercise it is perceived by many to be. While such an aim might be in discord it is probably a laudable one - certainly a curious one -but only if it works. Regrettably, this produc- tion teeters between moments of proper solem- nity and moments of Keystone coppery. The apparent directorial thrust is most evident in the playing of the title role. Granted that Hamlet is arguably the most difficult role in all of the theatre, it remains that there are cer- tain constants in the character. Hamlet might or nvght not be mad but he is certainly no fool. Yet, this Hamlet, as played by the reliable Colm Feore capers about like a schoolboy. That he is going through passion is evident; that the passion is severe enough to evoke grovelling is not in dispute. That passion however does not require that he writhe on the stage as though in a convulsion. A disappointing reading of the role but one is reluc- tant to hazard whose reading it is. As stated however, the production is not without 5th.Annual Carol Competition Time again to think about preparing your entry for what is becoming an in- ternationally recognized competition, the 5th annual Christmas Carol Competi- tion sponsored by the Amadeus Choir of Scar- borough.

Sidonie Boll breaks one's heart as the tortured Opbeha and Bradley Rudy is all that Laertes should be, clever and impassion- ed. Would we attempt to dissuade anyone from this Hamlet? Most certainly not! Indeed, at exit we overhead many remarking on its merits. That's the thing about Hamlet, of course. There is no such thing as a palpably bad production of it and there are many palpable hits. Is this production to be included among the latter? Each viewer must make that decision for him or herself. As for the festival taken all in all .. "The appetities they feed but . . . make hungry where most she satisfies". Dreadful paraphrasing but we believe it sums up this glorious artistic endeavour. OFF STRATFORD: Skylight Theatre is back for the 1991 summer season. Previews begin tomorrow and the premiere is this Saturday of "Twelfth Night". Performances begin at 8:30 p.m. tickets are free and available two hours before curtain. There are no reservations.

ON RECORD: Upon our return from Stratford the post contain- ed a trio of cassettes featuring music for children. We had promised Mary Arsenault, hard- working publicist for Be Bop Productions, that we'd review then here in this column. We most certainly will but have quite simply almost used up our alloted space for this time and will not be able to offer reviews until a future column. Let it be noted, however, that one of the cassettes is "Let's Help This Planet" by Kim & Jerry B'a'y • They open tomorrow at Ontario Place as part of Dempster's Children's Festival.

Group seeded down McCowan no. from the Scarborough Town Centre, along Brimorton Dr. and up Brimley Rd. to the civic centre. The crowd along the route was enthusiastic, waving Canadian flags and exhibiting a very happy Canada Day feeling. Some of the crowd is seen below at the bottom of the page. At left is Miss Scarborough 1991 Tracy Doucette, who waved at everyone and expressed a "Happy Canada Day" to everyone. Driver of the convertible was Dave Brown of Meat Consultants International Inc. Also in the car is publisher Bob Watson. Below at left shows the wonderful float and grasp which Scarborough Centre MP Pauline Browes brought to the parade. Her assistants handed out lots of little Canadian flags for youngsters in the audience to wave. Below at right shows youngsters from the Scarborough Board of Education carrying out gymnastic routines for the roadside audience. As in former years, the parade was composed of many terrific bands and marching groups keeping its audience watching and enjoying every r unute of the parade.

This is a rare oppor- tunity to see beaver building their dams and to call coyote. Stucky will employ special methods to attract abundant night life for the occasion. For instance. he will sugar for moths, put out feeders for flying squir- rels and use special black fluorescent lights to attract many other insects. Advance tickets are re- quired to participate in this special evening program. Call (416)832-2289. After 25 years with Mar- tingrove, it was a difficult decision for West to leave the program.

Annual Can -Am Vintage Classic Weekend by Jerry Hudson It was advertised as the First Annual CanAm Vin- tage Classic Weekend, but it may be the last time we'll see those glorious racing machines at Mosport. Scarborough's Horst Kroll, the 1906 CanAm Champion, was there again on June 29:30 with his No. 37 F rissbee. and the 5000 CC engined Iola KR3 never sounded better. Driving Kroll's second Fnssbee was CanAm racer Rupert Bragg -Smith in the No. 38 '84 KR4: "KR" stands for Kroll Racing. Hundreds of spectators, officials, media and fans attended the mock -grid to take photos of these famous race -cars, and track -owner Harvey Hudes and son Our4lst. Year of service to the community.

Serving the Community Since 1950 Nelson were no exceptions. Kroll's cars were not the only CanAm machines pre- sent, for there were Loins, Porches and McLaren also represented. After qualifying Bragg - Smith exited his car rubb- ing his left arm. "The car's setup for an oval," he ex- plained. "It's a battle to get it to make right-hand turns." But much Sunday morn- ing effort to change the setup resulted in a better handling car, and the race was on. Lamentably it was only for eight laps around bbsport's 2.459 mile cir- cuit, but Kroll and Bragg - Smith exchanged the lead several times. No other cars could corse close to catching them. At the end it appeared that neither wanted to win, With the two Frisbees see sawing along the pit - straight. But Kroll won the event, Bragg -Smith took second and the '68 McLaren of Stratford, CI"s Lave Handy held on for third. It was a far cry from the glory -days of CanAm back in the 60's and early 70's when 100,000 fans came to watch much larger fields of these cars at Mosport, but the sheer nostalgia definitely made it worth- while. On Saturday the Cana- dian Firestone Firehawk series held its third event of the season, a 500 kilometre endurance race. While Uli Beiri and Fer- nando Arcia qualified their Porsche 944 S2 fastest, in the 115 -lap race they could only manage a sixth-place finish. The top two cars at race - end were both very quick Porsche 944 S2's. The overall winners, and first in the Grand Sports category, were Rick Bye and Raymond David. Se- cond overall were Larry Caruso and Scarborough's Ludwig Heimrath. East York's Kat Teasdale and partner Ron Clark qualified their Chevrolet Camaro eleventh, but on lap 28 disaster struck. Teasdale was about to pass an Audi Quattro which had already been lapped, when the Audi spun off the track in turn two. In attempting to get back on the track the Audi's driver T-boned Kat's Camaro, spinning her off. Then, to add insult to in- jury, it again hit Kat's car Wed. July 10, illi THE NEWS/POST Page Experience The Blues At Harbourfront The blues isn't just a feel- ing - it's a form of musical expression that has been documented on disc and video, in photography and film. "Reely the Blues", the film and video compo- nent of the Soul 'n' Blues Festival, comes to Har- bourfront from July 12 to 14. Inst year, programmer Marc Glassman won over audiences with the Les Blank Retrospective. Now Glassman has enlisted the support of another leading blues figure, Barry Callaghan. A noted author, publisher and producer, Callaghan opens this year's "Really the Blues" with a highly personal illustrated lecture; Talkin' the Blues" which takes place on Fri. July 12, at 7:30 p.m. For three decades, Callaghan has collaborated with such noted artists as Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee, Sunnyland Slim, James Cotton and Muddy Waters. Callaghan will --- head-on as it lay at rest. The team estimates at least $2000 damage to the Camero. Finishing first in Sports class, tenth overall, was the Eagle Talon of Marc Montanigoy and Jacky Alloul. Fust in Touring were veteran racer Des Hockley and co-driver Luis Campos. their Honda Civic SI finishing two places behind the Talon. discuss his relationship to these and other notable blues artists and will pre- sent rare video perfor- mance and interview footage from his private ar- chives. Among the highlights of the Soul 'n' Blues festival is a live performance by R.T. Williams, a.k.a. the Grey Ghost, a near -mythical musical figure who has been playing piano in Texas since the 1920x. To complement William's per- formance, "Reely the Blues" presents two con- trasting, extraordinary videos featuring the Grey Ghost. "Texas Blues Reunion and The Grey Ghost", a Toronto premiere, will be screened on Sat. July 13, at 2 p.m. Both evoke marvellously the ever - flourishing blues scene in West Texas. Producer Tary Owens will be on hand to introduce his works, which have done so much to promote the resurgence of interest in this driving music created in Austin. Concluding Saturday's films is "L.eadbelh•" by famed Black American photographer and film- maker Gordon Parks. This dramatization of the life of Huddie Ledbetter stars Roger E. Mosley, Paul Benjamin and Albert P. Hall. The legendary Leadbelly came from the poor rural South and spent many years in prison before becoming the greatest blues singer of his time. The fullest measure of his success was his trium- phal appearance at Carnegie Hall, the apex of achievement for perform- ing artists of this period. Film critic Leonard Maltin terms Leadbelly "superior entertainment". The screening of this rarely seen film begins at 7:30 p.m. Closing this year's film series on Stn. July 14, at 1:30 p.m. is the wonderful gospel feature directed by George Nierenberg, "Say Amen Somebody". This spiritually and musically uplifting film stars Thomas A. Dorsey and Mother Willa Mae Ford Smith. "These two venerable greats are the central focus of this outstanding 'good news musical'." (NY Film Festival, 1962.)

July 10, 1991 Business Community News] Strategy To Manage Waste Till 2031 A preview of the "Master Plan Strategy", outlining Metro Toronto's 40 -year waste management plans was discussed at the Metropolitan Works Com- mittee meeting on June 26th. The preview outlines the programs which will lead to 90% division of waste from landfill by the year 2D31. The current rate of diversion is 2D%. The Master Plan Strategy sets out the preferred components, pro- grams and guiding policies of long-term waste management systems for Metro Toronto over the next 40 years. It will be reviewed by both public and governmental agen- cies and will form the ra- tionale for environmental approvals of any programs of facilities. The long term objectives and anticipated facility requirements con- tained in the preview docu- anent are attached. The final Master Plan Strategy (SWEAP Docu- ment 7.2) is expected to be completed by the fall of this year. Copies of the preview have been distributed to various public interest groups and to members of Metropolitan Works Com- mittee. Interested in- dividuals may obtain copies from the Public Par- ticipation Gffice, 138 Hamilton St. Toronto, On- tario M4M 2E1, or call 392-3753. The SWEAP program began in 1996 with the man- date to identify the pro- grams and facilities necessary to manage the solid, non -hazardous waste generated by residential, industrial, commercial, in- stitutional and municipal sectors within Metro Toronto for the next 40 years. Lift Water Restrictions The Metropolitan Toron- to Works Department has lifted a voluntary restric- tion on water usage in the Metro Toronto area. Because of a decrease in the demand for water, a return to cooler temperatures and recent and projected rainfall in the Metro area, water Metro Toronto Board of Trade Recent Policy Submissions Proposed Employee Wage Protection Program In a letter dated May 23, 1991 to Ontario Premier Bob Rae. the board's Irv - solvency and Creditors' Rights and Labour Rela- tios Committees state that the Bill will: have a negative impact on On- tario's interprovincial and international com- petitiveness; have the ultimate result of ac- celerating job losses and closures of business in On- tario; negatively affect the financial position of direc- tors and all persons holding responsible positions in On- tario businesses because of the sudden imposition of an enormous personal liabib- ty, thereby discmraging competent directors acting in this role. Automobile Insurance As a result of a meeting of representatives of the board's Insurance Commit- tee with Blair Twly, Depu- ty Minister, Auto In- surance Review, Ontario Ministry of Financial In- stitutions (see Executive Summary, May 19911, a let- ter, dated May 7, 1991, was sent to the Deputy Minister. The board askes the On- tario Government to deter- mine its preferences for auto insurance and an- nounce them by way of a discussion paper or draft legislation for public com- ment. The board expresses its concern with the affor- dability of auto insurance and any additional burden that might be placed on business and the economy. Goods and Services Tax In a submission dated May 23, 1991 to Federal Finance Minister Don Mazankowski. the board's Taxation Committee draws to the attention certain dif- ficulties that are being ex- perienced by business in implementing the Goods and Services Tax. The board identifies a number of issues with recommen- dations as to how the dif- ficulties might be resolved, thereby improving the effi- ciency of the tax. Workers' Compensation In a letter dated May 23, 1991 to the Workers' Com- pensation Board (WCB), the board's Labour Rela- tions Committee expresses its views on a WCB options paper entitled "Reform of the Second Injury and Enhancement Fund" (SIEF ). The board states that Option 1 is not accep- table because it would eliminate SIEF relief. With respect to Option 2, the board agrees, subject to certain conditions, that a schedule of pre-existing conditions would be useful. However, the board disagrees with a proposal to restrict the amount of SIEF relief available to specific percentage of acci- dent costs. Ontario Training sad Ad- justment Board In a letter dated April 26, 1991 to Ontario Ministers of Labour. Skills Develop- ment and Industry. Trade and Technology, the board's Education Com- mittee presents it's views on the structure, mandate and power of a central body to coordinate training in Ontario. Let's Move Project In its recent budget, the Ontario Government com- mitted itself to support the "Let's Move" public Win - sit initiative, proposed by the previous provincial government, which allocates over $30 million for eight separate en- vironmental assessments. In a May 23, 1991 letter to Ontario Environment Minister Ruth Grier, MPP, the board's Trarsporation Committee questions the priority of pursuing assessments on these tran- sit projects which are long, costly, and delay construc- tion. The Future of Pearson Air- port The board has recently been made aware of statements attributed to the Ontario Minister of Transporation and Minister Responsible for GTA over the future of Pearson Airport. In a May 23, 1991 letter to the two Ministers, the board's Air Services Committee re- quests a clarification of the province's position and seeks a meeting to discuss the future role of this air- port. levels in Metro reservoirs are back to normal.

There will be ongoing work on Hwy. 401 and the ramps to Meadowvale Rd. during the 1991 construc- tion season but the Ministry has requested the widening of Meadowvale Rd. be deferred from 1991 to 1992 to avoid excessive congestion in this area. Morningside Ave. As part of the Hwy. 401 widening project the Ministry of Transportaiton reconstructed the Morn- ingside Ave. overpass at 401 and widened Morn- ingside Ave. to 7 lanes from the 401 to Milner Ave. The ministry's portion of the work is scheduled to be completed early in 1991. It was felt that Sheppard Ave. E. would be a better termination for the 7 lane widening and traffic growth could be better distributed at the Sheppard and Morningside intersec- tion. Some utility poles must be relocated to allow this widening to continue and as a result the work is now scheduled for 1992. Road Surfacing Some $12 million will be spent by Metro in 1991 on road resurfacing. Some of the roads to be done include - Allen Rd. from Clanton Park Rd. to Sheppard Ave. W.; Allen Rd. southbound from Transit Rd. to 401; Bayview Ave. from Finch Ave. to Steeles Ave.; Don Valley Parkway north- bound from Taylor Creek to Beechwood Dr.; Lawrence Ave. E. from Centennial Rd. to Bennett Rd.; Old Weston Rd. from St. Clair Ave. to Rogers Rd.; St. Clair Ave. W. from Dufferin St. to Caledonia Rd.; Victoria Park Ave. from Finch Ave. to Steeles Ave.; Wilson Ave. from Jane St. to Walsh Ave.; Eglinton Ave. E. from Kingston Rd. to Bellamy Rd., Keele St. from Downsview Ave. to Wilson Ave.; Wilson Ave. from Keele St. to Jane St. and Bloor St. from the Prince Edward Viaduct to Jarvis St. Steels Ave. Widening Metro's Transportation Committee has allocated an extra $85,000 to the $140,000 for further en- vironmental assessments of the widening of Steeles Ave. from just west of Markham Rd. to the Pickering Town Line. ..... ...

"Kids Free" Makes Family Vacationing More Affordable Beginning May 4 and continuing through Dec. 1991 Club Med is giving travelling families an add- ed incentive by inviting tots 412 months of age and Mi ni Clubbers 2 through 5 years of age to stay absolutely Free with their parents at the Family Village of their choice. Older children may receive substantial reduc- tions too. Honeymoon Program The success of the club's honeymoon program is due to the exceptional all- inclusive value of its package as today's horwy- mooners, like the rest of the travel marketplace, become even more cost conscious. A recent "Bride's Magazine" reader survey revealed 30% of all newlyweds chose an all- inclusive honeymoon, while 72% look for a honey- moon location with lots go- ing on, but where they can also be on their own. Club Med comes out tops in both departments.

Tipping is prohibited. There are no taxes, no hid- den charges, no hassles. And, the whole trip can be arranged with one easy telephone call. This value is unbeatable when combined with some of the most beautiful and secluded vacation locations around the world. Such an environment guarantees honeymooners all the privacy they could want in comfortable accommoda- tions, complete with king- size beds and private bathrooms. When newlyweds choose to socialize, they can mingle with an interna- tional set, learn to sail or scuba together, to sample gourmet foods from the four continents, dance till the wee hours of the morn- ing and then walk the beach under starlit skies - There is no moving from place to place. No catching yet another plane or guess- ing where to eat next. In- stead, that feeling of total relaxation which comes from knowing there will be no expensive surprises at the end of a blissful week. Club Med villages offer- ing honeymoon packages are located in some of the world's top honeymoon destinations: Paradise Island adjacent to Nassau ( Bahamas ).
