Cut Government Costs
b_v Bob Watson
This week the Ontario government is going to bring down
a new provincial budget which observers are predicting
will include taxes on everybody.
This government at Queen's Park seems willing to talk to
public service unions, who are protecting their members
naturally. However. this government does not talk to the
small business community and ask its opinion about the
future or what to cut.
All our governments, despite heavy debts, are still
dishing out hard-earned tax dollars to every little (or large)
group asking for help for nice projects. However nice these
projects are, we do not have the tax dollars in these
economically -down times for them.
At Ottawa, for example, the slashing of multicultural
grants, native peoples grants, and all other grants almost
adds up to the S30 billion which is equal to the annual
federal deficit. This country cannot continue to operate
under these condtions. Let's get down to basics, slash the
expensive GST and begin a reduction in departments and
staff at the federal and provincial governments.
Many government employees could be given early retire-
ment and shouldn't be replaced till we have government
operation down to basics.
In our opinion most taxes should be collected from in-
come• not sales taxes, or any other way. In that wav
everyone doesn't pay taxes unless they earn money.
Dennis Mills. MP for Broadview -Greenwood has come up
with single tax idea. it has resulted in the Small Businesses
Loans Act, Bill C-99 which is designed to loan private
dollars to business at low rates of interest. This is the kind
of legislation we need to eel the ecrxhnmv hack on track.

Cut Bi-lingualism/Multi-cutturalism
Dear Sir
It is sheer hypocrisy for any responsible person to talk of
economic woes without first of all remo%ing the prime
cause of it namely bi-lingualism and its twin multi -
cult urism.
Canada's first deficit came in the first budget after the of-
ficial act, and has grown upon itself even year since. No
country can afford the financially nnnow burden of these
divisive, inefficient, and time wasting policies.
Auditor General Dye put an approximate cost of a billion
dollars on the printing cost alone. Let's be serious about
this. stop the rhetoric and get down to brass tacks.

DAVID SOMERVILLE
The lavish pension plans of
our federal and provincial politi-
cians may soon go the way of
the Berlin Wad and the reaction
of most Canadians is likely to be
the same — good riddance.
Federally. PC leadership can-
didate and front runner Kim
Campbell, NDP leader Audrey
McLaughlin and Reform Party
leader Preston Manning have all
pledged to fundamentally reform
the gold-plated MPs' pension
plan
At the provincial level. NDP
premier Bob Rae of Ontario has
said he would review the gener-
ous pensions enioyed by that
Province's MLAs.
The most startling reformer of
them ad. however. is Alberta Pre-
mier Ralph Klein, who an-
nounoed April 30 that his gov-
eminent would scrap altogether
the super -rich pensions for that
province's MLAs
Klein's dramatic action could
prove to be the real death knell
for the lavish pension pians of
Canada's pokOciam Ana all, it

pal and Ie - al politicians to
keep Cher rich persons affair

pension reform should only get

Politicians'
Pensions
Under Fite
more, the MPs' pension has un-
limited protection against infla-
tion and they can continue to
receive pension payouts even if
theyget another governmentiob.
The recent rebrementolsepa-
ratist MP Jean Lapierre demon-
strates lust how outlandish the
MPs' pension plan really is.
Lapierre quit politics last year at
age 36 after 13 years service
and immediately qualified for a
pension worth about $40.000 a
year Over the rest of his life he
will likely receive about $4 mil-
lion in benefits!
Plans for many provincial leg-
islators, while different in some
details. are similarly, lavish.
That's why politicians Ike
Klein and Campbell who have
taken a strong stand for pension
reform deserve praise They
are taking a principled position
and showing real leadership.
Their stand is ad the more
important considering M chal-
lenges all Canadians face By
taking the moral high ground,
these politicians have the cred-
ibility needed to make the diffi-

French Going To English
From APEC Newsletter
The Statistics Canada publication "Horne Language and
Mother Tongue" which is based on the results of the 1991
census, provides a clear indication that French speaking
people are making up their own minds as to what language
they will speak. over the years billions of dollars have been
spent by the Federal government in promoting the French
language outside Quebec, but despite the government's ef-
forts Statistics Canada lbws that the transfer rate from
French mother tongue to English home language was i0%
in New Brunswick, 37% in Ontario, and 50% or more in
Newfoundland, the Western provinces and both Territories.
The French speaking people are resisting the govern-
ment's pressure on them to speak French, and are opting in
large numbers to speak in English at home. All the hand wr-
inging on the part of the Commissioner of Official
Languages. Prime Minister Mulroney and assorted M.P.s
is not going to change that fact.
The above statement is reinforced by a statement made
by Daniel St. Jean, Coordinator of the Soo's downtown
Francophone Centre back in 1990 when there was a great
hullabaloo because the Sault Ste. Marie council passed a
motion which stated the Municipality would work in
English only. Mr. St. Jean said of the French people in the
area: "Ten percent support us, 10 percent are against what
we do, and the other 80 percent are completely silent -
Phantoms. We wonder sometimes who we're working for."
According to Statistics Canada only 23% of the entire
Canadian population reported French only as their home
language, while another 1% reported French and one or
more other languages. Those with French as home
language represented 3% or less of the population in all pro-
vinces and territories except for Quebec and New
Brunswick.
The writing is on the wall. When will our politicians
recognize that fact and stop trying to impose the French
language on all Canadians via grants and other incentives
to business, charities, etc.?

CLUB SC'ENE:NEW
Country has always been
the music of choice for
rural dwellers. Too serious
types attempting an ex-
planation might remark
that it reflects the lives of
those dependent upon the
soil for their economic sur-
vival: joy and sadness in
equal measure.
But, what is its attraction
for city dwellers?
Whatever it might be,
country music has been ci-
ty BIG for about a double
decade now and getting
bigger all the time. The
Column thinks it might
have exerienced the
ultimate in BIG whilst at-

The first major country
music club in Toronto, The
Saloon is licensed for 700
people and has
underground parking for
400 cars. It's on the main
floor of a new building at
got King St. W. near
Strachan: street cars to the
door.
It goes without saying
that the interior is large but
there's nothing cavernous
about it. The design is such
that the space seems
broken up into relatively
intimate conclaves -or
should we say corrals? -of
round tables with leather-
bound straight backed
chairs and long picnic style
tables with benches in Ger-
man beer hall style.
The dance floor is cor-
donned off from the main
traffic way and the stage is
raised so that all can see
and hear the entertain-
ment, about which• more

television screens in all

enjoy the entertainment
from the comfort of their

Entertainment? Well,

fun place and it should be
stressed that the fun is for
the entire family. In the
main, country music is
wholesome and a damned
sight better for young ears
than Rock. Take along the
advanced seniors as well.
The floors in The Saloon
are ridged making it
almost impossible to slip.
Something to think about
when wondering where to
take the elderly for an
evening of food and enter-
tainment.
How will you know if
they're elderly? If they
don't admire the

Good luck to The Saloon

SE:ATON' HIKiNG TRAIL
Now that the weather is definitely warming up, a plea-
sant excursion on the weekend is a trip along the Seaton
Hiking trail. The northern entrance is located on the south
side of Highway 7 at Green River, approximately 8 kms
east of Markham. To locate the southern entrance, take
Brock Rd. north and turn left at the first road north of Finch
Ave. to Camp Pichia.
The trail is marked with single yellow rings (double rings
in case of direction change). Keep these in sight and you
will remain on the designated path. The trail contains three
sections: (1) A walking trail from Camp Pidaca to Clarkes
Hollow where easy walking enables you to view a range of
natural features, animals and sights at leisure. (2) A
wilderness trail located in the mid portion from Clarkes
Hollow to Whitevale. This area presents an ideal setting to
experience "true wilderness", a feature that is becoming
increasingly rare in southern Ontario: and (3) a heritage
trail from Whitevale to Green River where old millworks,
ponds and lowland woods have been used to highlight the
natural historic features of the area.
The hiking trail was created in cooperation with the
Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority
and developed with high school and university students
under Ontario's summer works program.
The trail, a living laboratory that provides a natural
science experience for everyone, is a single, uninterrupted
link of more than LOW acres stretching from Green River
in the north to Camp Pichia in the south, a distance of 7.2
kms. With twists and turns the actual walking distance is
over 10 kms.

Luatta Harrington Started Homeowners
The president of Home
Owners Association started
doing men's jobs when she
was I I years old working at
a gas station! At 17 she was
assembling detonators on
torpedoes!
In the 1940s, she became
one of the first women to
crack the construction in-
dustry all-rnale arena as an
estimator. She thought
nothing of climbing up
steep ladders onto roof
tops!
Watching all the rip-offs
by con -artists made her so
mad she started Home
Owners Association, with a
full protection service for
members in 1959, and it's
still going stronger with
many other benefits like,
gas and oil discounts,
regular rates for all
workmen 24 hours a day,
double guarantees of all
work done.
Her service is part icular-
ly valuable with the cur-
rent recession deep-rooted
into the future. Many

Business Alliances Seminar May 27th
Both "Keiretsu" and
-Business Alliances" have
the same meaning but in
different cultures, with
Japan winning the fight.
-For over a year. our
Joint Venture Oppor-
tunities in Durham Region
program has been assisting
our manufacturing sector
to find new product7 lines
through joint venturing
with other companies."
stated Patrick Olive, Com�
missioner of Economic
Development at Durham
Region.
"For most Durham
firms. joint venturing is a
new type of business
endeavour and usually in-
volves other professional
and service personnel to
assist in the analysis and
final decision of a jouit ven-
ture," continued Mr. Olive.
"For example. most
firrris will involve their
legal counsel in the wor-
ding of joint venture
agreements and outside
auditors could be used in
any mioney matters. If our
Durham professional and
business service sectors
are not knowledgeable in
joint venturing, their in-
volvement with their
business clientele will be
limited and some good
financial opportunities will
be missed. "
