Discusses
Airport Lands
Fred Beer, representing
the Pickering Rural
Association addressed
council on June 7th about
the sale of surplus airport
lands. He requested council
to write to the federal
government to ask for a
deferral of these land sales
until a study is carried out
on the impact on the com-
munity. He concluded by
asking for a committee
with Town Manager Mar-
chall as chairman.
Paul Thompson, chair-
man of Green Door
Alliance, asked council to
support a move to ask the
federal government not to
sell the surplus airport
lands.
Mr. Srobelen, represen-
ting the Greenwood
Mushroom Farm, re-
quested council to proceed
with the sale of the stuplus
airport lands and zone the
land for agricultural use
only. He suggested 20 year
leases to tenants who might
farm the land.
Brian Hurl, representing
the Committee for Picker-
ing Airport Community,
said he represented all the
tenants on site who have
been on these properties
for at least 15 years and
asked where they are to go.
Council passed a resolu-
tion to form a committee of
three knowledgeable and
responsible citizens, a
member of council and two
members of staff to in-
vestigate and make recom-
mendations on the airport
lands.
The committee will be
appointed in 30 days and
repot back to council
within 6 months.
What About Motorized
Vehicles On The Bay
Kristine Pasternak of
1004 Maury Cres., address-
ed council about the lade of
knowledge by boaters in
Frenchman's Bay. She
presented a petition of 100
signatures asking that no
speed limit be imposed on
the Bay.
Margaret HilpeM of 624
Westsbore Blvd., asked
couincil to reduce the speed
limit on the Bay and asked
if the speed limit will be en-
forced during winter mon-
ths to include snowmobiles
and motor bikes.
Doug Lockrey of 1210 Ra-
jom St., Unit 404, advised
council that motorized
vehicles on the Bay create
havoc to peace and quiet
because some are without
mufflers.
Fred Wolfel of 968 Essa

Jeff Mitchell said he has

ed, operators of motorized
vehicles will move from the

vehicles be required to get

Bob's Notes
by Bob Watson
............. .
The Pickering Airport
Pickering Council is getting a lot of citizen complaints on
the status of surplus airport land in the town. We believe
that the federal government has made a big mistake in not
building this second international airport for the Greater
Toronto area.
Win• add more landing strips at Malton when the traffic
gets heavy at times. It would be more sense to have Picker-
ing servicing east bound international air flights and
1Malton doing the western flights.
The added advantage would be that travel on Hwy. 401
could be two way instead of just one way each day. In-
dustrial plants could be encouraged to establish in the east
instead of all being in the west end.
Let's hope someone at Ottawa gets this future planning
right
About Car Driving
Are you motorists aggravated by those poor drivers who
do not put turn indicators on in advance of their turn left or
right? We wish the police would issue tickets for this kind of
driver who makes driving less safe for everyone.

Trafficking & Drugs
Dear Editor:
AS my party's critic for the Minsitry of the Solicitor -
General. I have been made aware of many criminal ac-
tivities that threaten Ontario residents' safety and security.
Perhaps the most insidious of these m the trafficking and
use of illegal drugs.
The material and human costs of illegal drugs are stag-
gering. The direct cost to taxpayers is about $1.9 billion per
year while the indirect costs may be four times that high.
Policing services, prisons. unemployment insurance.
welfare, hospitals and drug treatment centres are all
severely strained. Increased taxes. lost productivity, a
decline in the quality of life for users and those caught in
their wake and the destruction of vulnerable children all
are products of the drug trade.
Rec•enth•, I introduced a Private %Iember*s Bill, entitled,
"Art Act to Protect the Persons. Property and Rights of
Landlords and Tenants which would streamline the evic-
tion of people who sell drugs out of their rental apartments.
The Bill would allow a prosecutor to apply for immediate
eviction upon conviction rather than hiring a lawyer to pro-
cess a separate eviction order after conviction. The Bill
passed Second Reading on June :3rd and is one step closer to
becoming law
While this was a welcome development for many tenants
and landlords in Ontario. I was alarmed that 25 out of 13
N.D P. members who voted on the Bill opposed it. Among
those members were two M.P.P.'s from Scarborough, Bob
Frankford and Steve Owens.
We know that there are as man• as 400 crack houses in
Nhetro Toronto Housing alone, yet, for some strange reason,
these two gentlemen did not join their :Metro colleagues in
supporting the Bill.
Although N.D.P. members raised technical arguments
against the Bill, the purpose of second reading is to ap-
prove, in principle, a piece of legislation which is then sent
to a committee for further discussion and amendment.
I am disappointed by the poor judgement of Mr. Owens
and Mr. Frankford, who have carried blind allegiance to
their Party to new extremes and obviously cannot be
trusted to reflect the best interests of the people of Scar-
borough Centre and Scarborough East.
Sincerely,
Bill Will Give Gov't
Power Over Medical Care
The Ontario government is attempting to pass dangerous
legislation that will give it the power to unilaterally dictate
what kind of medical services people can receive, who can
receive it, how many times they can receive it, when and
where, and by which physician, the OMA said at a news
conference on June 15th. The intent of this sweeping legisla-
tion, detailed in the Social Contract Act and the Ministry of
Health's Expenditure Control Plan Statute Law Amend-
ment Act, is to enable government to unilaterally and ar-
bitrarily slash expen litures in health care by a staggering
$1.6 billion in 1993 alone.
"The government is using its current fiscal situation as
an opportunity to pass insidious legislation that would give
it unprecedented powers to ration virtually any insured,
medically -necessary service as it sees fit," said Dr. Tom
Dickson, President of the Ontario Medical Association.
"Under this legislation, there are no limits on what services
can be restricted by government -it applies to everyone and
everything."
Dickson said the government slipped through the Expen-
diture Control Plan Statute Law Amendment Act, which
describes many of the powers it wants to give itself to
unilaterally control doctors and the delivery of medical
care.
"Clearly, government was hoping no one would notice,"
said Dickson. "If this legislation is passed, it could have a
significant impact on patients and the public generally."
The OMA President pointed out that implementation of
the Social Contract and Health Care Expenditure Control
Plan legislation would destroy the constructive relationship
developed between government and doctors over the last
several years.
.,The master agreement we signed with the NDP govern-
ment in 1991, touted by Premier Bob Rae and former health
minister Frances Larkin as ground -breaking. has saved
hundreds of millions of dollars and greatly improved the
management and delivery of health care services," said
Dickson. "Now. two years later. the government is reneg-
ing on its part of the deal and overriding every single part of
an agreement that they themselves bargained_.'
Dickson said the credibility and integrity of the Premier
are directly at issue. Two years ago, before he was elected,
Bob Rae told the OMA Board of Directors: "Fair arbitra-
tion between the professions and the government is critical
in creating a more open health care system. You have a
right to it, under international law, and under every stan-
dard of natural jurstice.. -
"The Premier now says go off and negotiate a deal by
Aug. 2 to reach a pre-icletermined outcome, or we'll enact
legislation to reach that outcome our way," Dickson said.
'Ibis isn't collective bargaining -it's a farce, a hoax."
Dickson said the Premier and Minister of Health talk
about the value of negotiating. but "what is the purpose of
negotiating with these people when they make an agree-
ment and then go ahead and break it a year or two later.
Worse yet, they give themselves the legislative authority to
break their agreements. This is hypocrisy and cynicism of
the highest order. "
Dickson emphasized that in the midst of this chaos. the
OMA and physicians of Ontario had been developing a
variety of measures to manage the system and control
costs in a sane and logical manner. He said the public wants
and rightly demands that government and doctors work
together to better manage medical services, and that the
medical profession was doing everything in its power to
make continued co-operation possible
"We've made many proposals to governemnt and we
have a lot of others, but frankly nothing we've seen or heard
from government indicates they really have much interest
in anything we have to say." said Dickson.
"Government can't unilaterally break its agreement with
the OMA, threaten legislation that will cut doctors' income
by five times the percentage that it will cut others, tell them
where they can practise and how many services they can
perform, and expect the health care system will go on in a
wonderful and cooperative way," said Dickson. --It's just
not in the cards."
Dickson urged the government to reconsider its position
and look again at honouring an agreement with physicians
that was signed for good times and bad.

The Way I See It

Community Banking Manager, and
Manager, Kennedy Park Shopping Centre
Choice of Mutual Funds
Should Reflect
Personal Needs
By the mid-1990s, it is estimated that mutual funds
in Canada will be worth about $186 billion. That's
triple their current value, and nine times their value
oniy five years ago. In this, the last of a four-part
series, we look at how mutual funds can be used
to meet your personal investment objectives.
Of the more than 700 mutual funds available in
Canada today, which one is right for you?
Each provides the benefits of professional
management, as well as an opportunity to
participate in a large, diversified portfolio of
securities. But in most cases, that's where the
similarity ends.
Why? Simply because different funds are designed
to meet the needs of different investors.
For example, if you're approaching retirement,
your primary investment objectives will be
preservation of capital and a steady source of
income. On the other hand, if you're in your early
30s, you'll probably be less concerned about short-
term security than long-term growth.
In each instance, there's a type of mutual fund (or
combination of funds) that is best suited to your
personal goals. To see which one is right for you,
let's review the following criteria:
Time horizon. Basically, this is the time remaining
until you expect to use the proceeds of your
investment. If it's three years or less, then you
should probably concentrate on stable, income -
oriented such as a mortgage, bond, or money-
market fund. If your time horizon is five years or
more, you may want to consider investing in an
asset allocation fund or equity fund - either of
which is subject to short-term fluctuations in
value, but offers higher potential growth over the
long term.
Liquidity. Like many people, you may require that
at least some of your investments are liquid. or
readily cashable. This could be to provide a source
of emergency funds, or just a "parking spot" for
money that you're reserving for future investment
opportunities. Here, any mutual fund will provide
you with the liquidity you need, since they are
usually cashable within a few days. It's worth
remembering, however, that it is not always
desirable to liquidate some types of mutual funds -
particularly those that may have recently suffered
a short-term decline in value. And certainly. if your
fund is sheltered within an RRSP. you will not want
to use the money - and incur the subsequent tax
penalties - unless absolutely necessary.
Income. If you're like many people. you may
depend on your investments to provide you with a
regular source of income. In this case, your
holdings should be weighted towards mutual
funds that concentrate on interest-bearing
securities, such as mortgages, bonds, and money
market instruments. Keep in mind. however, that
bonds (and, to a certain extent. mortgages) can
decline in value if interest rates start to rise.
Finally, if you wish to minimize the tax liability on
your income, you may want to consider investing
in a fund that generates and derives a substantial
portion of its returns from dividends.
Growth. While North American stock markets have
performed sporadically over the past few years.
historical averages show that equities offer
consistently superior returns in the long term. So if
your goal is to achieve capital growth over a period
of five years or more, you may want to consider
investing in a Canadian equity fund or equity index
fund (this type invests in stocks that make up the
TSE 300 Composite Index) - both of which are
eligible for your RRSP. You can also increase your
level of diversification and gain exposure to
foreign markets with an international fund.
Balancing your asset mix. Is there one type of fund
that's right for you? In most cases, probably not.
Because even if your investment objectives are
almost exclusively oriented towards income or
growth, you'll still need some measure of
diversification in your portfolio. Consequently, you
may want to consider investing with a company
that offers a full range (or "family") of mutual
funds. This will allow you to shift your assets
between funds - often at no charge - to
accommodate your changing investment needs.

HERITAGE M;HLIGHTS
Marching thunder
The passion of the "wind tamer" of Saint Hyacinthe
B� Marsha Boulton
S.m\T Hl'ACINTHE. QUEBEC.
I n 34 - What wind instrument
manutactured in Canada has
earned an international reputation
for excellence:'
More than 3.7(N) organs have
been meticulously crafted at
Casavant Freres studio in Saint
Hvacinthe near Montreal. and the
inspiration for this thriving family
business came from the musical
aspirations of a v illage blacksmith.
Joseph Casavant was horn in
1807 and he apprenticed as a
blacksmith in his adolescence.
Although he became known as a
skilled craftsman. Casavant main-
tained a passion for music and
dreamed of a career as a musician.
At 27, he shut down his forge
to pursue a classical education. It
was a bold move for a man of his
age. Casavant enroled in a semi-
nary. where he worked as a handy-
man to pay for his studies.
His perseverance was rewarded
when the seminary director asked
him to repair an organ. Relying
on a scholarly work by a French
Benedictine monk. Casavant
proceeded to disassemble and
rebuild the organ. Applying his
blacksmith skills. he fashion-
ed and refined its delicate and
precise mechanisms.
Casavant called the completed
organ "March-
ing Thunder".
It was such a
success that a
nearby parish
ordered one. The
..wind tamer"
from Saint
Hyacinthe had found a second
career.
Between 1840 and 1866, Casa-
vant completed 17 instruments
which found homes in cities and
towns throughout Upper and
Lower Canada. The organ that he
built for the cathedral in Bytown
(now Ottawa) in 1850 was the
largest in North America. It con-
sisted of 1.063 wooden and metal
pipes, 18 five -octave stops and
a three -keyboard console.
Sadly. none of Casavant's iwig-
inal masterpieces remain. Howev-
er. his sons. Joseph-Claver and
Samuel -Marie. inherited his love
of the instrument. They studied its
science and tradi-
tions in Europe.
In 1879, Casa-
vant's sons

workshop at
the site of their
father's studio. Their first com-
mission was for the organs at
Montreal's Notre -Dame Church.
This triumph of tonality estab-
lished their reputation.
By the turn of the century. just
about every city and town in Cana-
da had a Casavant organ, and
the company's reputation spread
throughout the world. Today.
90 per cent of the company's
production is exported.
Watch for the "Casavant" Heritage Minute
on your local television station.
for more isformatioa about the Heritage Project call t-MHl-5674817
While the Casavant family'%
enterprising passion for excellence
in large-scale organs has resulted
in an on-going business, another
Canadian organ innovator. Frank
Morse Robb, was not so fortunate.
Robb was the inventor of the
first electronic wave organ ever
manufactured.
In 1927, he began experiment-
ing with recording the natural
wave form of sound on the Bridge
Street United Church in Belleville,
Ontario. In 1928, Robb, obtained
a Canadian patent, seven years
before any other electronic organs
were produced.
Rather than sell his idea, Robb
set up his own company. By 1936
the Robb Wave Organ Company
was delivering organs to stores
and chapels in Toronto, but the
Depression spelled doom for
Robb's entrepreneurial venture.
The company folded the fol-
lowing year, but the multiplicity
of sounds that can he ixchestrated
on the electronic organ continue
to delight millions who can share
the thrill of "marching thunder" in
their own homes.
Our one suggestion is that
if you intend to see several
shows at Stratford -as you
should -let Gypsy be your
last. It's a great whipped
cream dessert after the
hard tack of the classics.

we suggest that his
greatest praise came from
Louis Armstrong.
He used to come in late at

marvel at the orchestra

particular whose technique
he hugely admired.
More than once he was
heard to say "man, if I

$365,000 Grant
For Snowmobiles
The Ontario Federation
of Snowmobile Clubs
(OFSC) has announced
$365,000 of trail develop-
ment grants to 13
community-based
snowmobile clubs across
southern Ontario.
The OFSC grants, in-
dependently funded by the
association's successful
user pay trail permit
system, provide up to 50%
funding for capital projects
such as the purchase of
grooming equipment and
bridge construction. They
are tangible evidence of the
OFSC mandate to put trail
permit revenues back onto
the trails, and are geared
to significantly improving
strategic locations within
the 35,000 km OFSC trail
network. Last winter,
snowmobiling generated a
province -wide economic
impact in excess of $400
million last winter.

D -Day + 50 Years
Ceremonies In June '94
A major logistical pro-
blem involving next year's
50th anniversary of the
Allied invasion of Norman-
dy has been solved.
Ray Lunn, President of
INTRA Travel -Oshawa has
announced that his firm
has concluded negotiations
with the Cunard Line for
space aboard the Queen
Elizabeth 2 on a special
D -Day voyage from New
York to Cherbourg on May
29,199-4.
Lunn said this will solve
the problem of a severe
shortage of hotel space in
Normandy during the
ceremonies. Thousands of
Allied veterans are ex-
pected to attend this major
event and most hotels have
been booked for several
vers.
"We approached Cunard
with the idea of using the
QE2 as a floating hotel in
Normandy and they were
very enthusiastic," said
Lunn. "We've just com-
pleted the details for a
10 -day package that will
alkn, Canadians to be a
part of the action. "
The Oshawa -based travel
agent said Cunard has
allotted his firm a block of
cabins for the special
voyage and they will be
sold on a first-come, first-
served basis.
-We expect a quick sell-
out". Lunn said. "We've
already had a number of
serious inquiries based on
word-of-mouth information
about our negotiations with
Cunard. "
Lunn said the package
will include airfare to New
York from Toronto, a five-
day transatlantic voyage
aboard the QE2 to
Southampton, a cross-
channel trip to Cherbourg
and three days in Norman-
dy including bus tours of
the D -Day battle sites.
' The highlight of the trip
Will be the QE2's inclusion
in the Royal Navy Flotilla
ceremonies featuring a
cruise of the D -Day
beaches." Lunn said. "Our
veterans will literally have
a front -row seat during this
exercise. -
After three days as a
floating hotel in Norman-
dy, the QE2 will return
across the English Channel
to Southampton where
passengers can either
transfer to London for a
free return trip to any
British Airways gateway in
North America or they can
take an optional post -event
package tour of their
choosing.

Healthy Travel Requires Planning
Canadians are going
places and took almost 22
million trips abroad in 1992,
quotes Statistics Canada.
With more people touring
the globe and current
political climates opening
the doors for travel oppor-
tunities, being well inform-
ed and prepared for your
trip is essential. Interna-
tional travel, especially to
tropical destinations, re-
quires much more than just
updating yOtN passport and
booking your flight.
When planning your trip.
find out about the im-
munization and visa re-
quirements of your destina-
tion, the embassies nearest
to where vou'll be staying
and English speaking doc-
tors in the area. Ask your
travel agent and your
physician N'ou'll want
practical information like
what kind of weather you
should expect, how safe the
food and water are and
what kind of insects you'll
have to deal with. 1'ou
should be well aware and
informed of any diseases or
epidemics that vou'll be ex-
posing yourseif to. This
determines what shots you
will reed before leaving
and it also lets you know
what to watch out for on
your trip.
"The last thing you want
to do when travelling is
ruin your vacations by get-
ting sick," says Dr.
Catherine McNally from
St. Michael's Hospital
Travel Counselling and Im-
munization Clinic in Toron-
to. Before you leave, there
are some medical concerns
to take care of. If you
haven't had your annual
checkup and are planning
an extended vacation, a
visit to your family doctor
and a dental check up are
recommended. Have your
doctor write a letter
describing any prescrip-
tions you may be taking to
save yourself problems at
borders and airports. Also
ensure that you have a full
prescription as well as an
extra set of glasses or con-
tact lenses.
When you have determin-
ed which vaccines you re-
quire, you will have to set
up an immunization
schedule. The schedule
should start about four to
eight weeks before your
departure. "No matter
where you're going, it is a
good idea to update your
tetanus -diphtheria shot
before leaving," says
McNally. Another health
concern is medical in-
surance. You'll want to en-
sure that you're covered in
the event you tun into
troubles on your vacation.
There are several
packages designed
specifically for travellers.
and organizations set up to
pr•mide travellers with in-
formation on health and
safety in foreign countries.
Check this out when doing
your research.
The Travel Counselling
and Immunization Service
of St. Michael's Hospital is
a good resource, offering
health information, travel
counselling and necessary
immunization and medica-
tion for both business and
leisure travellers.
You've prepared for your
trip got your vaccinations
anti' written out an
itinerary with all the things
you'll need to know about
your destination spot. 1'ou
should also prepare
yourself for those minor
emergencies that seem to
pop up. "It is a good idea to
pack a first aid kit with all
the essentials. along with
your prescriptions and br-
ing it along in your cam on
luggage," adds Dr. McNal-
ly.
The only thing left to do is
to relax and have a fun
time. But you have to be on
your guard while you let
loose. Staying healthy
when travelling doesn't re-
quire much, just a few
precautions and a little bit
of common sense "Avoid
uncooked or unpeeled food,
be smart about what you're
drinking and eating, if
you're not sure. remember
the motto: Cook it, peel it
or forget it," says McNally'
The best way to be safe is to
stick to bottled drinks like
juice and soda. as long as
they're sealed properly.
You also have to be careful
about the food you eat. Stay
away from salad bars. buf-
fets. seafood platters or
any food that's been sitting
out for several hours.
Finally. when you return
home, schedule a follow up
physical if you're feeling ill
to ensure that you haven't
brought back an} un-
wanted souvenirs.
preferably within the first
eight weeks of your return.
If you were sick while you
were gone, inform your
doctor
The key to a successful
trip is planning and if you
have prepared. your vaca-
tion can be full of great
memories.
