The decision to reunite the
events for this year stemm-

Martel Should Resign
Says OMA President
The President of the Ontario Medical Association said
Apr. 15th that Shelley Martel should resign from cabinet.
OMA President Dr. Michael Thoburn said, "The report of
the legislative inquiry indicates that Ms. Martel and her
staff used information pertaining to the billing practices of
a physician to attack him for criticizing government policy.
This conduct is totally unacceptable to the Ontario Medical
Association.
"It is important to understand the effect Ms. Martel's ac-
tions have had on the medical profession," continued the
OMA President. "Doctors with whom I have spoken have
expressed understandable concerns that should they speak
out against government on issues, they too may be subject
to an attack by government. Now that the legislative com-
mittee has reported, Ms. Martel's continued participation
in cabinet is untenable. To respect the public interest, she
should do the honourable thing and resign."
The OMA President is also calling upon the Freedom of
Wor oration and Privacy Commissioner to follow up on the
disturbing evidence heard by the legislative inquiry•, and in-
vestigate procedures in the Ministry of Health to ensure
that confidential billing or medical information cannot be
used inappn opi ately. The confidentiality of all medical
records mug remain paramount to protect physicians and
patients.
Thoburn said. -'In light of the evidence heard by the
legislative inquiry•, the confidence of the medical communi-
ty in the integrity of confidential information has been
severely shaken...
I Can't Believe It!
The Editor:
I cannot believe my eyes when I read in one of Toronto's
major newspapers that a beauty contest in Scarborough is
facing city bran. !Mayor Joyce Trimmer is living in the dark
ages in a nutshell. Doesn't she understand that beauty con-
tests generate local business. If there are twenty female
contestants entering a beauty pageant it means good
business for local merchants such as hairdressers, shoes,
evening gowns and the list goes an and on. Just when we
need more events to give our economy a boar, certain peo-
ple are comm out of the drawer and with a sledge hammer
they want to crash everything down that stands in a pro -
gr ive
rogressive process.
Ever since CFTO cancelled the Miss Canada Pageant
some feminist groups are now claiming victory that they
have succeeded in the cancellation. I for one can assure you
that feminist groups had nothing to do whatsoever in the
Miss Canada Pageant cance"tion : nor all the other
reasons that CFTO and Cleo Productions gave us as an ex-
cuse for its cancellation.
I wish CFTO will one day come forward with the real
reason why Miss Canada was cancelled so that people like
Scar'borotgh Mayor Joyce Trimmer and other members of
Scarborough City Council that support her. think twice
before putting their foot in their mouth.
In the meantime I wish Mr. Watson and the Scarborough
%ews and all the contestants success on Juan 7. 1992 at the
Scarborough Civic Centre and don't bend down to dark age
pressures and party pooper tactics.

McLeod Says NDP Must Consult With Communities About
Casinos
The NDP government is proceeding with its controversial
casino gambling proposal without first asking the people of
Ontario what they think, Liberal Leader Lyn McLeod said
recently in the Legislature.
"Opening casinos across Ontario could change the face of
this province," said Mrs. McLeod. "Yet, there has been no
open consultation or debate with the people of the
province. "
Mrs. McLeod said a story in a recent edition of the Toron-
to Star confirms the Premier and his government may have
already decided, behind closed doors, to proceed with
government -run casinos.
There is no indication that the government has done any
full studies or reserach on the impact of casino -gambling on
the province or on individual communities.
"This government has repeatedly promised to consult
with and listen to the people, and to respond to their
wishes," said Mrs. McLeod. "It seems obvious that the
debate is only going to take place now, after the decision
has been made..'
Crass border mayors have been pressing the government
to help alleviate their serious economic problems by allow -
mg open Sunday stopping and reducing the gas tax to
discourage cross-border stopping to the United States.

presented by those communities,"
said Mrs. McLeod. And she added that the recession has
placed the people of Windsor and communities across On-
tario in a desperate position.
"Those economics aur shattered. largely due to cross-
border shopping." said Mrs. McLeod. '"kris government
has given border communities nothing else to grasp.'
As Leader of the Opposition, Bob Rae was opposed to
government -rum lotteries and gaming.

"Spring thaw is a
dangerous time," says
John Blaicher, marketing
director of the Ontario
branch of the Society.
".Melting snow and rain
make river water rise and
rum fast. Cold moving
water can be an adventure
for children - a potentially
fatal attraction, when they
slip on a muddy river bank
or it gives way under their
feet. "
"Rescue is almost im-
possible,., he says "The
victim is suddenly swept
away like debris in the
cold, thirty and dangerous
current. A would-be
rescuer often becomes a se-
cond victim."
Be Water Smart - don't
bank on river banks. You
might get carried away.

Reporting An Accident
-When Do I Have to
Report An Accident?" This
is a quatim often asked of
police officers.
Nearly every driver will
at some time become in-
volved in a motor vehicle
accident. It is always im-
portant to know when you
mist report an accident to
a police officer and what
responsibilities are yours
at that time.
Every person in chargee
of a motor vehicle who is
directly or indirectly in-
volved in an accident,
shall. if the accident results
in personal injury apparent
at the time of the accident
or in total combined
damage to property ap-
parently exceeding 5700,
report the accident im-
mediately to a police of-
ficer. This accident can
happen anywhere, whether
it occurs on a street, park-
ing lot or a private
driveway.
The accident should be
investigated at the scene so
that witnesses, if available
can be interviewed. The
police officer will also be
abhors of the ��-
accident
scene, for example,
measurements. weather,
damage and road condi-
tions and gathering
evidence.
It is important that
everyone invohvled in an ac-
cident receive the required
information from the in-
vestigating police officer in
ander to notify their own in-
siwance Company.
If you unfortunately
become involved In a motor
vehicle accident, whether
as a driver or a pedestrian,
do not be influenced or in-
timidated by other persons
who may try to convince
you not to report the acci-
dent. There could be
reasons why the other per-
son does not want to report
for example, no insurance,
driver's licence suspended,
or driver impaired by
alcohol or drugs.
Remember it is very im-
portant to report that acci-
dent in order to protect
yourself.

Dill Watt's Worlds
DINNER THEATRE:
Treat a lady of the draw-
ing room like a farm girl
and vice versa. The dread-
ful aphorism might work in
relationships but it's not
always successful applied
metaphorically to music.
The proof, we suggest, is on
view now in Blue Skies. A
Celebration of Irving
Berlin ('s music) playing
at the Limelight Dinner
Theate.
Basically it's a cabaret
revue with a talented cast
of four accompanied by
Director David Warrack at
the piano with rhythm.
There is no one m one! -
w
who can present a better
cabaret entertainment
than Mr. Warrack. So, you
have the music of Irving
Berlin presented in in-
timate surroundings by a
talented cast. It should be a
fail proof show and, we're
sure, was so considered at
its genesis.
Yet, it's not as good as it
could/should be. For ex -
tion, refer back to the
Mad Paragraph -
You see, Irving Berlin,
though not born in the
U.S.A. became the
quintessential American of
the twentieth century's
first half. His music is S16 -
pie and uncomplicated in
form, emotional in content.
u needs only committed
sincerity to be successful in
presentation.
The arrangements
employed in this show are
far from simple. They're
truly brilliant in the use of
unexpected tempi and
classical counterpoint. But,
they don't serve Berlin's
music well. music that was
written for common con-
sumption. The melodies of
Gershwin. Kern. Porter
and Rogers have been
adapted symphonically.
Those of Berlin have not,
simply because they don't
lend themselves to such
treatment. Apple pie is ap-
ple pie; it cannot become
mousse de pomme or what
ever.
That said, let it also be
written that Blue Skies is
not without high entertain-
ment values. The talented
quartet of Sheila Brand,
John Devorski, Janet
MacEwen and Scott Smith
sing and dance well. The
singing is noteworthy par-
ticularly given the in-
tricacies of the ar-
rangements. One thinks
particularly of the difficult
two part song You're Just
in Love from Call Me
Madame. It's a difficult
song in any case -at least we
always found it so -and to
present it as bossa nova
demands great skill and ar-
tistry. But it's not the way
Berlin intended it.
And yes, it's cute to bear
Oh How I Hate to Get Up in
the Morning! sung slowly
by "Mane" as "the dawn is
breaking" but it's still not
Berlin.
To be fair it should be
written that it's a nice
touch to use the British
lyrics to Easter Parade...
Rotten Row instead of The
Avenue. Smart Magazine
rather than Rotogravure.
Nice, but purling to most
North Americom.
The best number of the
evening is presented by
Mr. Warrack himself. He is
a good singer in addition to
his many other musical
talents and he delivers a
particularly raunchy rendi-
tion of I Love a Piano. Now,
that's Berlin'
We recommend Blue

For those of us who are, it's
a pleasant enough evening
out. Jost keep an open
mind.
ON YOUR TOES:
Three Ls loom large in
the current
ry Widow byof
the
National Ballet at The
O'Keefe.
The music of Lehar is
timeless but improved if
anything by the Itch or-
chestrations of John Lan-
chberry, a lushness that
matches that of the set,
costuming and lighting
design. Then, there is
Serge Lavoie as Count
Dario.
We have watched this
man with interest for some
years now and continue to
be impressed by his work.
It's a given that all ballet
dancers are strong but
there seems to be
something almost preter-
natural about the ease of
his lifts. Peter Schaut ss
was arguably the most im-
pressive with this skill but
be was and looked like a
walking muscle. Mr.
Lavoie is seemingly lean.
Almost admired as much
as his dancing skills,
however. is his sense of
bunour. After impressing
as Petnhcchso in Taming of
the Shrew, he now exhibits
the same insouciance as
the dashing Dando. Quite
remarkable.
Gizella Withowsi danced
the title role. What more
an one say about this
magnificent creature* She
is regal, she is stately. Yet,
she dances the role in the
manner of the original Ger-
man title, not the more or
less pallid English one.
Think about it, all of you
who know German.
Also impressive was
Caroline Richardson as
Valencienne. She was pro-
perly pert not flirt, woman,
not girl. Her pas de deux
with Peter Ottman as her
lover are almost steamy, in
an aristocratic way, of
course.
And, once again. we
make our plaintive enquiry
over why Mr. Outman has
not yet been promoted to
Principal.
The choreography of
Ronald Hynd is true to the
Writ of the waltz and
seems to matte the work of
the dancers easier. It isn't,
of course, but it seems so
and that seeming ease
comes over the floodlights
as sheer enjoyment.
Individual dancers will
not be singled out here
since all perform to the ex-
pected excellence of The

National- Still, mention
should be made of young
Robert Tewsley in a minor
role. We understand he's
only nineteen but already
he is dancing with authoni-
ty and Elan. He rather
reminds one of Jeremy
Ransom at the same age.
Go see and enjoy The
Merry Widow. Of cause
it's all nonsense, a
reminiscence of a time that
never really was but we
can dream can't we'.
ON STAGE:
Douglas Cleverly of Mix-
ed Company sends along a
reminder that Life On The
Line continues until May.
17th ( there might well have
been an extension of run by
the time this appears) at
the Glen Morris Studio
Theatre an Glen Morris St.
near Bloor and Spadlna.
It's a one man show per-
formed by Cliff Saunders
and is described as a series
of musical moments in the
life of a contemporary
Everyman. The first
musical nximent of our day
comes when we switch to
the cold water while
showering.
ON RECORD:
In Review:
We deplore the title but
love the content of World
Music (Mango Attic).
Reggae, the more or less
national music of Jamaica,
has not as yet spread over
the world any more than
Jamaicans themselves who
seem content to bring their
culture or what ever to
Canada, the United
Kingdom and the U.S.A.
only.
It does, however, catch
on wherever it's introduced
and your catholic music
_lover admits an affection
for this singular music that
seems to capture the loping
dance rhythms of the West
Indian island.
We have pleasure then in
recommending this E. P.. a
sampling of various reggae
artists. Individual
Missisauga. Tickets are
available at the door at $10,
or $7 for seniors and
students.
The concert offers a
Renaissance "Art of Love..
tracing love's torment,
revival and pleasure, with
works by Maley, Wilbye,
Farmer, Dowland, Pilk-
ington, Ward, Bennett and
Bateson.

A new program at Black
Creek Pioneer Village,
"Environmentally Friend-
ly Victorians", looks at
how Victorians applied the
three is - reducing, reus-
ing and recycling - to
everyday life.
Although they were "en-
vironmentally friendly"
largely out of necessity,
their ideas can still be ap-
ted today. For example,
ad pudding, a common
way of using stale bread, is
still a good household
waste reducer and budget
saver. Cloth and paper
were recycled in many
ways being rediscovered
today.
Visitors to Black Creek
from Apr. 25 to May 10 will
discover vintage ideas
perfect for today's friends
of the environment. They
can select question cards
and, while touring the

their questions from the in-
terpreters. It's a unique
educational experience -
one they are not likely to
forget.

Proposed Beach's Arts Centre
The plan for a permanent
facility to house the
Beach's visual and perfor-
ming arts was originally
conceived in 1965 by Com-
munity Centre 55's Pro-
gram Committee com-
munity members identified
a discrepancy between the
quantity of arts enthusiasts
and the limited space and
facilities available to sup-
port their interests.
"The East End, par-
ticularly the Beach, is a hot
bed of amateur and profes-
sional talent which needs
and deserves a permanent
home," says Bob Murdoch,
Executive Director, Com-
munity Centre 55. "We en-
vision a Performing and
Visual Arts Centre com-
parable to existing
facilities in Scarborough,
Mississauga and other
Metro communities."
Tentative plans for the
Beach's Performing and
Visual Arts Centre include
an acoustic theatre with
seating capacity of about
250, along with facilities for
set, costume and props con-
struction and storage;
visual art studios; and an
art gallery. Potential
mediums for the Arts Cen-
tre would be dictated by
community interest but
could include theatre,
music, mime, dance,
video; film, creative
writing, painting,
photography and
sculpture.
Following the model of a
typical housing co-op, each
user group would share in
managing the Arts Centre
and day -today operations
would be carried out by a
skeletal salaried staff. The
facility would be self -
sustained and funded by
user group fees; charitable
donations and occasional
fundraising events.
In keeping with its man-
date, Community Centre 55
is committed to providing
staff and volunteer
resources to help the com-
munity "help itself" build
an Arts Centre facility - ac-
cessible to all members of
the community.
"Beyond providing a
needed outlet to foster the
artistic expression of local
artists, we also hope it will
provide a base for pro-
grams to encourage the
arts among young
people,"' says Greg Peter-
son, Project Chair and
Chairman of Centre 55's
1992 Board of Manage-
ment.
Headed by Peterson, a
volunteer Arts Centre Com-
mittee, comprised of
members of the arts com-
munity and Centre 55 per-
sonnel, has been formed to
oversee the realization of
this vision. However, the
committee welcomes other
individuals who would like
to provide input and
assistance in establishing
the Beaches Performing
and Visual Arts Centre.

wa Rene Soetens, M.P.
National Volunteer Week is fast approaching. From Apr.
26 to May 2, we can all pay tribute to Canada's 13 million
volunteers, and to the vital role they play in the develop-
ment
evelopment of our communities. This year's campaign is sym-
bolized by a single red rose.
The importance of vo!uhteer work to the community is
something I know first hand. Prior to my election as
Member of Parliament, I was involved in volunteer work
through several capacities. Through such experiences as
being a Boy Scout leader for 13 years, my involvement with
the Rotary Club and participation with environmental
awareness groups, I fully understand the vital services that
are provided by volunteer work.
Indeed, the volunteer represents citizen participation in
the truest sense. When Canadians give freely of their time
and skills for the benefit of others in their communities, we
all benefit. Our quality of life improves. Canadian citizens
who work as volunteers define the true spirit of caring and
giving - values that are inherent to the character and
reputation of our nation. Our volunteers have become the
backbone of our cornmunties: they continue to meet urgent
social needs, and their contributions affect radho s of
Canadians every day.
The act of volunteering has a direct impact on our desire
to build a Canada for our future that is consistent with the
basic values for Canadian citizenship - equality and par-
ticipation. That impact is reflected across the nation by in-
creased economic and social development, factors that are
crucial to the future well-being of this country. In fact, the
value of the wort that volunteers do is very significant - sur-
passing 13 billion dollars per year!
This year. I urge you to recognize National Volunteer
Week and take some time to pay tribute to those volunteers
who support Canadians in need. Better yet, get involved
yourself. Whether it's by helping others learn to read or
write. or getting together to clean up the enviroriment, you
can Play a part in the improvement of our society. I can
assure you that you'll achieve a highs degree of self-
satisfaction in the process.
