Ik•tober It, 199_ Opinion a page for expression for you and us Hurry Up Oct.26th. by Bob Watson Canadians are getting very frustrated and aggravated at these days of constant dialogue about the upcoming vote on Oct. 36th. In our opinion Canada is N(Yr in danger of splitting because we Canadians love our country and will not accept a split in our beautiful land. The current vote on Oct. 36th is very faulty because we are being asked to vote for a lot of ideas which the Prime Minister and Premiers may be discussing for the next to years to put into action. The coming vote should have been on specific questions such as "Do we wish some Canadians to have special rights under our constitution such as Quebecers and native people" ­ As a five generation Canadian we were brought up to believe that all of us Canadian citizens. whether we were born here or not and no matter what our ancestry. were all equal in every way. The Charlottetown Accord does not ap- pear to agree with this concept and many of us Canadians find this wrong. If we have to have a constitution reform let's get down to equality for all Canadians. Let's have all Canadians - in- cluding native people - paying equal taxes and let's have representation by population in our governments. Truth At Last Mr. P.E.Trudeau tells the truth at last. Quebec has been blackmailing Canada. His actions of former years have im- plicated him as the founder of the "distinct society". He amended the British North American Act to ensure French culture could survive and dominate Canada. Air. Trudeau brought in an immigration policy that almost closed the door on tradetwnal European immigra- tion and opened them wide to cultures that would not readi- ly nix with Europeans. This would dilute the other -than - I reach part of Canada's population ensuring survival of the "distinct society". Immigration is required in Canada but should be based on unemployment and hiring in smaller quantities of cultures other than European. Mr. Trudeau's multiculture policy imolviig diverse cultures would ensure the other than -French population would never get together and become stronger that the ..distinct society". Mr. Mulroney. another Quebecer. just carried on atierr Trudeau left off. which shows it is not only Quebecers of French origin that blackmail the rest of Canada. it is time this blackmail stopped. tiro political parties have been telling Canadians this for years. The pace for keeping Quebec in Canada is too high. (tank and We Quebecers have no more control over their govern- ment than we do and are told just what select groups Aantt them to hear. Quebec's dennands always change and they offer no compromise. Canada did not break up after Meech Lake and it won't when this referendum is defeated. Anyone who thinks different does not have much faith in about twenty million Canadian!, with vast resources. Quebec will not separate: would you kill the goose that laid your golden egg' What we creed in Canada is a change in the system of government At*Te more democratic con- trol can be exercised by the people, where majority opi- nions are part of policy. where elected representatives are directly accountable to the people and are trusted servants instead of party puppets. A "No•' vote is a vote to save Canada from Quebec blackmail. Yours truly. F R Cameron 409-35 Reay Cres. Winnipeg. Manitoba R2K XX7 Gobbler Gigglers Q.

COR Party Questions Charlottetown Accord The Ontario Provincial Confederation of Regions (CoR) Party. while welcoming the national referendum , serioush• questions the intent and motives of the federal government in conducting a referendum that is not binding on the government: that does not give adequate time for careful study of all issues. that heavily promotes the Fes side and asks the people to vote on a blanket "motherhood" ques- tion. The Ontario CoR Party will be providing its members with an information package highlighting important features of the document, thus helping them to arrive at in- formed answers to such questions as: - Does the country need 42 more MPs costing &500,000 each year' - Is democracy well -served when Quebec is guaranteed 35% of the House of Commons seats and 3 out of 9 Supreme Court Judges" - Does Native Self Government create two more "Distinct Societies" (Aboriginal and Metis(, how much will self government cost, who will pay the bill, what are the im- plications of supposedly equal members of society living and working under different laws. or can the politicians even by trusted to justly implement the proposed inherent right to self government'' - Does Distinct Society mean Quebec will be further able to promote group rights over individual rights, thus repeating such abuse as their infamous language Legislation, or will Distinct Society forever institutionalize racism in Canada' - What are the implications to future generations of non - French speaking Canadians when Quebec Senators are ef- fectively given veto power over any changes to Canada's CWficial Bilingualism legislation' - Quebec has stated this is only the beginning, they will be back for more. do Canadians want to be blackmailed still again' - Will the division of powers simply make Ottawa a tax col- lector. distributing the loot to the provinces, and neither be- ing held accountable for their actions: are we gutting the federal government' - Are The People Of Canada Being Asked To Buy "A Pig In - A -Poke" " Ottawa is still bargaining. bartering. and ac- quiescing to Quebec. even after the Accord has been signed. If the Accord is approved. Ottawa will then have the power to interpret the niumerouas open-ended clauses in am May it sees fit. Constitutions. when founded on proper principles and not on selfish interests, are meant to express a common will and to control those who govern. It will take time to ponder the Accord's features and decide whether these principles are honoured and Canada is enhanced. or does the Accord merely cater to special interests and aggravate those issues that already divide our fair country' W'hy the big push for Oct. 2ah, whose agenda requires such an im- mediate answer" The politicians and bureaucrats tank months to tinker and talk this Accord into existence. one line at a time, so whose interests are being served by an all or nothing vote in such a short time frame' On referendum day. CoR Party members. and hopefully - through shared information - their friends and relatives as well. will make a well informed choice when they mark their ballot Yes or No. Mulroney Should Stop His Hysterical Blustering Over "No's" Dear Sir Madam. Prime Minister Brian Mulroney should immediately stop his hysterical blustering over the consequences of a vote to his proposed constitutional amendments. Mr. Mulroney must know that an overwhelming majority of Canadians was repelled by his characterization of op- ponents of his deal as "enemies of Canada'". Now. however. he is doing something much worse. By his apocalyptic language, he has helped to destabilize the Canadian dollar and drive up interest rates a full two per cent. How many Canadians will suffer if, as a result of his ir- responsi ble rhetoric, the economy were to be destabilized in the wake of the likely failure of the deal' Mr. Mulroney seems to be deliberately putting his par- tisan interests ahead of Canada's interests. He should be ashamed of trying to scare Canadians into voting for his deal blindly. We urge your readers to read the constitutional deal, con- sider it on its merits and then vote accordingly. Mr. Mulroney should trust Canadians to make the right choice. yours truly David Somerville, President.

Vice President. Royal LePage. "This summer and early fall have seen the highest level of sales in years. "Government programs such as allowing the use of RRSP funds for house purchases and CMCH's new five per cent down payment rules are sill attracting a considerable number of first-time buyers and this group continues to be very active. In some areas we are seeing more interest in move -up market homes, too. as people realize that the com- bination of lower prices and low interest rates is providing them with opportunities to purchase a larger home at little incremental cost.

October 14, 1992 THE NEWTS POST Page 3 Form Don,Watershed Task Force To Draft Strategy On Sept. 25th 10 watersh- ed residents, 10 municipal nominees and four interest group representatives were formally appointed to the Don Watershed Task Force by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Con- servation Authority (MTRCA) . The Don Watershed Task Force was formed to draft ,a strategy for the regenera- tion of the entire Don watershed for approval by the authority in early 1994. In addition to developing a strategy, the task force will assist communities and local groups in their efforts to regenerate the Don watershed. "The task force will take a new, innovative and open approach to the develop- ment of the Don watershed strategy. Citizens will have a major role to play. We see this as an exciting step toward an ecosystem ap- proach to watershed management and a brighter future for the Don," says Bill Granger, the authority's chairman and representative on the Don Watershed Task Force. Ten residents of the Don watershed were selected to make up the citizen compo- nent of the task force. They come from all areas of the watershed and reflect a broad range of interests and backgrounds, from parents and educators to Ix.pprofessional engineers and ologists: Veronica Bergs ( Borough of East York ): Margaret Casey ( Borough of East York); Donald Cross (City of Toronto); Natasha Feder ( City of North York ); Gordon Hut- chinson ( City of North York); William King (City of North York) : Deborah Martin -Downs (Town of Markham); Denis McKee (City of North York) ; Thomas Ward ( Borough of East York); and Walter Watt (Town of Richmond Hill). The ten regional and local Don Watershed ;municipalities each nominated a represen- tative: Gerry Altobello (Ci- ty of Scarborough), David Cohen ( Town of Richmond THE Hill), Barbara Hall (City of Toronto), Eldred King (Regional Municipality of York), Lorna Krawchuk (Borough of East York), Peter Oyler ( Metropolitan Torontoo, Frank Scarpitti ( Town of Markham) and David Shiner ( City of North York). Alternatives were also named. The Task Force to Bring Back the Don named Mark 'Wilson to the Don Watersh- ed Task Force. He will act as an interim chairman un- til the official chairman is elected in January 1993.

These consultations included Royal Commissions, participatory confer- ^y"a^�^*'- -td hearings in the provinces and territories held ^y provincial and territorial legislatures. Federal, rovrrlcial, territorial and Aboriginal leaders have A Socia :greed unanimously on a package of constitu- and ona l proposals that recognizes the equality of Canadians and represents all of our interests. • `)e agreement is now before Canadians.

In addition. to ensure t, e vo 'eve!s o` gm-errinlent work in harmony, the government of Canada commits to negotiate agreements with 1e provinces in areas such as immigration, 'agional development and telecommunications. ederal-provincial agreements on any subject 'ould be protected by the Constitution from .iilateral change.

The proposals recognize that Aboriginal peoples have an inherent right to self-government and that the Constitution should enable them to develop self-government arrangements and to take *• ^�a^^ �� ��^? n^ federation. The proposals recognize Aboriginal governments as one of the three constitutionally recognized orders of government in Canada. In addition, the proposals provide for a negotiation process between Aboriginal leaders and provincial and federal governments to , put this right into effect. The recogrntion of the inherent right would not create any new rights to land. Now that Canada's federal, provincial, temtora and Aong(na, eacr have reached a consensus, it is the right of all Canadians to understand the new proposals.

Page 6 THE NF;WS W)ST Wed. October 14. 1992 Bill Watt's Worlds ON RECORD: In Review: Byron Nease has been singing the romantic lead role of Raoul in The Phan- tom of the Opera since it premiered at The Pantages in September of 1989. In reviewing the production. this column wrote of him at the time, "fine singing by the entire cast but par- ticularly Byron %ease". Now. the gentleman has been starred in his first album and we were there to hear him sing selections from it at the media preview. On the ADD (Audible Differences label. it's titled "When I Fall In Love" and as the title song suggests it's a fond and sentimental collection of romantic show tunes by such composers as Victor Young. Stephen Sondheim• Richard Rodgers. Jerome Kern and others. And. it's quite simply presented. There are no overblown, lush arrangements here. Mr. Nease sings the glorious songs accom- panied only by piano played with unobtrusive emotion by John Boswell. At the media reception, Mr. Nease made it clear that the selections on the recordings were his choices. Yet, and although it's clear the gentlernan en- joys singing them, there is nothing self indulgent here Mr. %ease clearly respects as ,ell as loves them and delivers the excellence of a splendid voice to each song. The album is now available in selected stares throughout the city and we recommend custom.

We say reliable because most of its releases for children are innocuous at worst and sometimes delightfulat best. Still, one wonders rather plaintively. doesn't anyone sing to or re* 4 1 with their children any more' Must children grow up thinking that all music must be mechanically or electronically issued? Don't mothers and fathers sing lullabies any more? Vi'e'd hate to think that's the case.

IN PRINT: Several columns ago. one of the books reviewed dealt with the subject of peppers. Flow•, one offers The Story - of Corn by Betty Fussell (Alfred A.Knopf New Fork � . A fascinating book it is and well worth the atten- tion of urban and urbane readers. ht's not simply a ,well researched treatment of the world's most ubi- quitous grain: it's an almost tender approach by a lady ,to clearly loves her subject. Corn is found world wide. In some countries it's synomouxs with grain. (We have a cousin who holds a seat on the Glasgow Corn Exchange. Hello Ina.) Where ever it's grown, it soon becomes a staple, sur- passing oats, burley ( for shame!) and even wheat. Yes, even wheat ! It has far and away the greatest variety of usage. far and away the best taste and texture of all grains. And, alone of all the grains, it has a historical affinity with the earth and the culture of those who recognise it as an integral part of existence. I ndeed, among aboriginals, there is no separation of Animal and Vegetable Kindomns. There is only one fide force and on - h_ • one name for such. In a work that could easi- ly be labelled definitive. Ms. Fussell addresses the subject of corn as both. ar- tist, scientist, economist and historian. Reading The Story of Around and About Your Dining &Entertainment Guide - Corn, one will learn that it was in North America that modern technique took over to develop newer, stronger and more utilitarian corn. The leader was Henry Wallace. founder of Pioneer Hi - Bred, a vice-president of Franklin Roosevelt and a failed presidential con- tender. It was also Mr. Wallace who fought hard to prevent the over develop- ment of corn and the loss of inherent geneticism. (Would that some of those airy fairy thinkers in Cana- dian departments of agriculture had had the same foresight. Then we might not now be depen- dent upon a mere handful of varieties in our choice of vegetables. Is there anyone reading this who recalls when there were several varieties of carrots. dozers of varieties of apples, 12 different kinds of turnips from which to make choice' Not Moody likely') You'll also read about the manner in which the Inca calendar was predicated upon the growth of corn. You'll read that Pbst Toasties were originally called Elijah's '.Hanna: that Postum's original label read Monk's Brew. And, although not a cookery book. there are many splendid recipes scattered throughout. Mind you. Ms. Fussell doesn't ex- plain Flow hush puppies came to be called that ( thec were thrown to yaM- bound dogs at fish fries with the kid words "Hush puppy' ") nor does she comment on an apparent anachronism of Escoffier ( In the 1934 Ma Cuisine is said to be written "If fresh corn is not on hand, ex- cellent canned or from lunds are to be found on the rnarket.".

Noel Coward plays are not the usual Dinner Theatre fare. Coward has to be ap- proached in a certain way, least of all his dialogue and style. I must admit my fears were groundless. Apart from the strength of this classic play which has charm. wit and lots of humour this was a very polished production from a cast and director who understood the intricacies and writing of Noel Coward. The plot is simple enough, Charles Con- domine (Julian Mulock( is writing a book about spiritualism and has asked the local clairivoyant, Madame Arcati, to dinner so that he can study her methods of summoning so- meone from the past. He is cynical about all this going on. She leaves along with the other guests Dr. and Mrs. Bradman ( Philip Arnold and Mary Doig) leaving Charles and his second wife Ruth ( Andrea Rick) to sum up the evening's event. Unknown to them ENira. Charles late wife, has been successfully recalled, and reveals herself, at first on- ly to Charles. The rest of the play deals with Charles reaction to this and trying to get Elvira to go back where she came from. The script is comedy at its best and is now a classic of its kind in the Theatre. Julian Mulock was one of the best "Charles" I have ever seen. A beautiful per- formance and stage presence. As his wife, An- drea Risk matched him all the way with a strong sus- tained performance. The role of Elvira was handled with charm and a keen sense of fun by Madeline Atkinson. The interpretation of Madame Arcati by Bar- bara Hanna was different from previous productions 1 had seen. The eccentrici- ty was played down leaving us with more of a "Wicked Witch" feeling. The play was written 50 years ago and was kept in that period. It was a lovely, workable set. well dressed and the costumes were cor- rect for that period. Ex- cellent production values. The food as always is tasty. The show continues until Oct. 31st.

The campaign, which began Sept. 26th, aims to increase awareness and use of energy-saving pro- ducts during the peak winter season, and is ex- pected to reduce electricity consumption by five megawatts. This year's results are expected to match those of last year's October promo- tion. when 55 percent of On- tario households purchased at least one of the many energy-saving products on the market. The use of these products has reduced energy consumption and saved custorners $4 million on their hydro bills. In 1991, the province's 2.7 million residential customers saved 35 megawatts of electricity through Hydro's energy management program - enough to meet the peak power needs of a communi- ty the size of Orillia. More than 30 energy- saving products will be featured in this year's Oc- tober promotion. ranging from the spectrum of energy-efficient light bulbs, water -saving showerheads and faucet aerators, to bigger items like insulation, acrylic storm windows and microwave ovens. Featured items are chosen by Ontario Hydro, and competitive prices are determined by retailers. Ontario Hydro also pro- vides retailers uith adver- tising support and point-of- sale materials, including a newspaper-stvle fl -ver full of energy-saving informa- tion and tips.

Blood Donation A Family Affair Larry, Patricia and their three children regularly ;head to their local Red Cross branch where all five ;give blood. It's a ritual they repeat on Boxing Dray. Easter and Civic holiday weekends times when Red Cross blood inventories run low. "Donating blood helps us share our good health with others," says Patricia. "Besides." she laughs. "the family that gives together slays together.'. With five busy schedules. it's hard enough for the McPhails just to get together. Larry is a firefighter. Patricia a grade school teacher - librarian. Patrick. 22, studies music at the University of Toronto. Robin. Za is a dance major at York University and Col- leen, 19, attends Humber College in the equestrian training program. Larry and Patricia both began donating blood in high school - also where they first met - and they've kept up their commitment to donate through 24 years of marriage. As soon as they were old enough their son and two daughters were encouraged to do their part as well. Today the McPhail clan has gone even further, recruiting friends and neighbour to join them in their outings to the blood donor clinic. During :National Blood Doctor Appreciation Week. October 18-25, the Red Cross is making an extra effort to thank voluntary blood donors like the McPhails. "Without their generosity. it would be im- possible to meet the blood needs of hospital patients." says Glenn Manderson, Red Cross director of blood donor recruitment for cen- tral Ontario. Each weekday over 80o donors are needed to meet patient needs in central On- tario. For information about giving the gift of life contact (416) 974-%W or a local branch of the Red Cross.

The two-year pilot agree- ment responds directly to the industry's demand for more highly -skilled employees and a reduction in staff turnover. It was signed by Richard Allen, Minister of Skills Develop- ment. Peter North, Minister of Tourism and Recreation. and Peter Elmhirst. Chairman, On- tario Tourism Education Council (OTEC), on behalf of labour and management in the tourism industry. "Tourism is one of the largest private sector employers in Ontario. - said Mr. Allen. "Two hun- dred and fifty thousand On- tarians work in the in- dustry. Yet it's hindered by a shortage of practical training opportunities and high employee turnover. Through this partnership of labour, management, governments and educators, we can strengthen the industry as a whole by significantly im- proving its skills base and employee retention." "The competitive edge in the tourism industry is ser- vice," said Peter Elmhirst, Chairman of OTEC and resort owner. "Quality ser- vice can only be delivered by trained, motivated staff. These traineeships target skills and attitudes so that employees are more able to deliver the kind of service a business needs to be suc- cessful. " "The strength of our tourism industry lies in the people who deliver the ser- vices." said Peter North, Minister of Tourism and Recreation. "OTEC was established to provide employees in the tourism industry with the necessary hospitality and professional skills that will give guests the best possi- ble experience in Ontario. whether an vacation or business. For information about ending in any of the traineeships please contact OTEC at (416, 253-Wd or fax 1416) 253-5660. Sail Holland One Of A Kind Sailing Twenty persons with a disability and non -disabled people recently arrived back from sailing on a one - hundred and ten foot, wheelchair accessible, double -masted clipper in the waters of Holland. "We were individuals from the Hamilton. Toron- to and London area brought together by Catherine Smart. Coordinator of Camp and Recreation with the March of Dimes to go. as a group on the Sail Holland trip. All of u had the usual reasons for going. Some to get away from the humdrum routine of daily life, others to see new sights and faces. Scrap all that! Our compelling drive to go to Holland was love of water, sailing and adven- ture!" says Marilyn Noell, a trip participant and quadriplegic. This unique group of Canadians experienced the Dutch culture. the largest flower show in the world: visiting small villages: sailing through locks: tour- ing canals at night time and much more! ..For most. the highlight of the trip was when the skipper grounded the ship at low tide on a sand bar while the North Sea sur- rounded us on all sides. Down an acutely angled ramp, the stalwart crew safely lowered everyone onto the sloppy bar to ex- perience being on the bot- tom of the sea! The first astronauts on the noon may have felt the same ex- hilaration ! .. "The goals of 'Sail Holland' were to encourage self-esteem, self- confidence and an expand- ed sense of ones' own abilities." says Catherine Smart. ''Many in the group ended the trip with a renewed sense of control over their lives.- states Smart.
