And yet, if you are like most parents, you have little or no prepara- tion for the job. Only for the job of parenting is there the unspoken expectation that love, instinct and common sense will be enough. And sometimes it is. More often, however, the most well-intentioned parents find themselves frustrated, angry. bewildered, guilty and alone. like members of any other professional group you and your fellow parents need the opportuni- ty to get together to share your common problems and receive continuing training in the skills needed to do your job better. The Family Education Resource Centre of Durham House is offering this discussion group for parents which will focus on understanding children's behaviour and learning positive and practical skills for redirecting misbehaviour and en- couraging children. The group will meet at St. Catherine of Siena School. 1s Bennett Ave. in Ajax on Tuesday evenings from 6:45 - 8:45 p.m for 8 weeks starting Oct. 19. The cost is $48 per person. plus a text book fee of $17.60. Pre -registration is re- quired. For more information and to register call the cen- tre at 686-6459 or 579-2021.

Tough Smokiong Bylaw Pickering Council has smoking in indoor places, passed a bylaw to ban including shopping malls, n 0 beauty salons, service line- ups, theatres, recreation centres and reception areas. The bylaw also restricts smoking to 30 percent of seating in restaurants and 50 percent of the floor area in bingo halls and bowling alleys. At the Sept. 20th meeting when the bylaw was passed Bill Lewis of 909 Mountcas- tle Cres. spoke in favour of a no smoking bylaw to pre- vent teens from smoking. Brenda Piggott of 2390 Rosefield Road North ex- pressed her pleasure with council on this restricted stroking bylaw. The bylaw followed the criteria set down by the region's health department in its model anti-smoking bylaw.

Jones described the plight of the community in Davis Inlet and the efforts of a group of dedicated volunteers to alleviate the situation. His article concentrated on efforts to help the mothers and children lead a more normal life. The ar- ticle concluded with a plea for $5,000 to move a donated portable classroom to Davis Inlet from Newfoundland. This classroom will be used as a permanent learning and play centre for the younger children. On Sept. 13 the Board of Directors of the Human Resources Professionals of Durham agreed to con- tribute $250 towards this worthwile project.

Pickering Service station Sales Council has delayed for two months endorsing an interpretation of the various automobile service station definitions within the town's zoning by laws allowing the sale of cold drinks, packaged food, tobacco and other ac- cessory goods so long as the sale of accessory goods remains incidental and subordinate to the principle operation. Or that the coun- cil initiates a formal amendment to the by laws to recognize the sale of a wider variety of accessory goods - Bev Rosner told council that if a gas station is allowed to sell convenience store items it will virtually put these stores out of business.

October fi, 199t Opinion a page for expression for you and us !Bob's Notes by Bob Watson Racism by Bob Watson For those of us Canadians who have had the opportunity to see a large part of the world with all of the different groups of human beings there is one piece of information in our memories. Racism exists in all of the world and Metro Toronto's racial attitude is not one of the big ones. We wish that people like Dudley Laws would stop stirring up the population to believe that great racism exists in our society. Back in the 1930's most of the City of Toronto politicians seemed to be Northern Irish Orangemen. But time has erased this biased power group so that today Toronto's members of council represent a variety of racial backgrounds. Today racism and bias in the workplace has been stimulated by the Ontario government passing laws to dic- tate to businesses that they must hire so many women, a certain number of "black'' people, as well as handicapped people. This has resulted in a hiring bias against "white males" resulting in the biggest "racism" in the province. In our society the term "black people" has been put into place in a supposed attempt to remove the bias against humans whose racial background include a darker skin than those who have European ancestry. The unfortunate fact here is that there are third, fourth and sixth generation Canadians whose skin colorer is black and they are lumped in with Jamaicans who have recently arrived in our coun- try. People with "black" skin is not a proper description because there are many backgrounds which are quite dif- ferent. Every time the Ontano government establishes a "racist committee" to investigate the problems of bias towards some people it is interesting to note that the committee is composed of inrnigrants from many ports of the world but never a solid white Canadian mak. Is this not racism bias'. Let's give up wasting money trying to sort out racism and institute a good attitude to everybody as well as restricting immigration to people who will be an asset to otw country's economy. Keeping Costs Down Dear Sir Madam. Keeping costs down has become a mayor objective of health policy and medicare has been put at unnecessary risk. The Canadian Nurses Association, representing over 100.000 registered nurses. strongly believes that this elec- tion is key to the future of our health care system. Nurses will be playing a crucial role in this election. One in 70 voters is a registered nurse, and their involvement will have a tremendous impact on this election. Nursing's vision of health care is well defined. Canada can no longer support an expensive, sickness-anented health care system. Canada needs to increase emphasis on health promotion and disease prevention activities. Public participation is esential in planning and implementing ser- vices. As an access point to health care. nurses can provide quality affordable health care. Over the course of the next seven weeks, we will be pro- viding you with fact sheets on health care in Canada. The first edition, included today, examines the challenges fac- ing Canada's health care system. Taxpayers, consumers, health care providers and governments are all struggling with how to maintain the system and keep it affordable. The articles included in this package explore the view that con- sumers need more and better education to make informed choices abeout health care. We urge you to use these fact sheets to help your readers understand the important issues of this election. Please feel free to reproduce them exactly as is, or use the material to build vour own health care series. Please clal our election hotline at 1-800-361-8404 if we can be of any assistance.

Sergeant Mee - RCMP They Are Special Dear Sir Madam. MPs, Senators. senior bureaucrats and high ranking military and security officials all have privileged access to a special clinic in Ottawa where they receive prompt ser- vice for everything from check-ups to surgery. The politicians who have access to this privileged care are the same ones who boast hypocritically about Canada's wonderful. one -tier universal medicare system. Most Canadians would face long waiting lists if they were to require heart bypass, hip replacement or cataract surgery. The situation is chillingly similar to the system in the old Soviet Union. where a special political elite known as the nomer"tura was treated at special hospitals which had antibiotics and the latest in medical technology. If nothing else, the existence of the privileged care for an Ottawa elite - Canada's own nomenklatura - shatters the myth that this country has a one tier, universal health care system. Canadians should demand that this special clinic be scrapped. If the federal political and bureaucratic elite were to suf- fer for months in pain, waiting for surgery like the rest of us, perhaps our medicare system would be reformed a little more quickly. Yours truly. David Somerville, President The National Citizens' Coalition Vote For The Candidate Who Will Best Represent You Letter To The Editor How To Improve Your Image Dear Scarborites: With the Shaw Festival and the Toronto media against us, what can we do about that bad, bad image? Here is a solu- tion to improve your image: just dissolve the city of Scar- borough! That's right, change your name by joining the city of Toronto. Scarborough does lack high class night life and eateries. We have miles of waterfront but no beaches; a marina that is almost inaccessible. Over half a million people but no in- ter city bus depot; three movie theatres; six indoor skating rinks; four hotels. We have no "downtown" area, not even a "main street". Danforth Avenue and Kingston Road were not meant to be used to go from A -to -B, but for parallel parking only. We have no north -south corridor, except Markham Road, which becomes a highway after it leaves the city. Many of those points would not change by joining Toronto, until our new owners saw the need for improvement, which is evi- dent now. But we would be known as Toronto the Good - not by that other name. Or we could join North York. Although the name "Scar- borough" has a more celestial ring to it than the name "North York". North is only a compass direction, and York is the name of our county, used by several other places. We would have Melts Bells, and that arts castle of Showboat fame. And North York does have a "downtown", and a main street with stores on both sides. A compromise (the Canadian Way) would be to use that Super Highway as a natural boundary. The part of Scar- borough north of Hwy 401 would join North York, and the southern half would join Toronto. Mel would gain the zoo and the Rouge River, and June would gain more waterfront and the bluffs for Crombie's walk -on -water promenade (perhaps "Cronenade"? ). Then Toronto could proceed with the eastward run of the Gardiner Expressway. anything would be better than hanging in mid air 40 feet above the Lakeshore Road as it is now. There would be marry advantages. Since most of us work in the city of Toronto, our taxes would stay in the city where they are earned. It would also reduce the number of city councillors and mayors; sorry, Joyce. cut-0aCkS, downsizing... But best of all -note this, councillors and Bob Rae -with one stroke of the pen we would eliminate that brash bunch of trustees who form the Scarborough Board of Education! They caused embarrassment to you and to themselves, and irrational anger to many residents. There seethed no legal wav to get rid of them. Now, pool! - and the problem is solved! Ingenious solution. I think it is a marvellous idea. Comments are welcome from Toronto, North York, and yes, from Scarborough also. Sincerely. Jack Coughlin Scarborough O.R.G. Opposes Farm Bills 42 & 91 At Queen's Park Ontariam for Responsibk Government I O. R.G. I is stepp- ing up its campaign to oppose farm bills 42 and 91, currently being proposed by NDP Premier Bob Rae. If these bills are passed," says O.R.G. Director Than Corbett, ''it would diminish the freedom of Ontario farmers and undermine their competitiveness." Corbett says Bill 42 would essentially force farmers to join farm lobby groups while Bill 91 would see farm workers unionized. To combat the proposed laws. O.R.G. plans to take its case directly to the rural ndings of MPPs who support the bills. "We intend to use billboards, banners and more media ads in those ridings to remind the fanning com- munities which MPPs want to trample their democratic rights. We are also going to urge them to work to defeat the bills." Corbett says one of the groups first targets will be MPP Paul Klapp (Huron - NDP I , who sat on the Standing Com- mittee on Resources Development which studied Bill 42. O.R.G.'s latest attack on the farm bills supplements an earlier effort which saw the pro -free market group place newspaper ads denouncing Bills 42 and 91 in the farm papers. Those ads were sharply critical of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, which O.R.G. says is cooperating with the NDP's plans to unionize the family farm with Bill 91. "The OFA took exception to our comments," says Cor- bett, "but the fact is they could rake in as much as $5 - $9 million in new membership dues if Bill 42 is passed. To us that smacks of a cynical pay-off from Premier Bob Rae." In an effort to bring its message to the farming community, O.R.G. announced its new campaign at the recent Interna- tional Plowing Match. Give A Gift That Lasts All Year!

October 6, 1993 Bill Watt's Worlds 1PN STAGE ONE: George Burns has remarked that the secret of a long and happy life is to fall in love with one's work. How easy that would be for reviewers and critics if all S were as joyous as Five Guys Named Moe now in residence at the Royal Alexandra. Nominally it's a book show but the hook that holds it together is so flim- sy that the show could be, and quite properly, described as a review. A man is despondent over a failed love life and his per- sonal problems that led up to it. Five Guys Named Moe appear and straighten out his life by singing and performing songs written and performed by the late Louis Jordan and The Tym- pany Five. The man and the group were a seminal influence on the direction that North American ;popular music would take in the second half of the twentieth century. That's almost all by the bye though. What's impor- tant is the music itself and its presentation by the great cast. The show never lags, it's in virtually constant mo- tion and the enthusiasm of the performers spills over, literally, to the audience. Can you imagine a normal- ly staid Royal Alexandra audience dancing in a con- ga line with the cast through the theatre and on stage? We rest our case.

At noon they'll be at the Waterfall Stage and will present excerpts from the show. This is a free presen- tation and well worth one's custom if already downtown and, we suggest, worth a special journey even if not. ON STAGE TWO: Death and The Maiden by Ariel Dorfman sounds like the title of a melodrama that might have been presented by Belasco at the turn of the century. It's not. This Canadian Stage Company presentation of the Chilean pLaywngW's worm is quite one of the most compelling evenings of theatre one is ever likely to experience. And, it's counterpointed by Schubert's Death and The Maiden. The theme -revenge and redemption -isn't new. In- deed. it's almost a staple of drama but this Death and The Maiden is more than a considerable cut above others of its genre. Briefly stated. it's set in a supposedly undisclosed country where, late of an evening. a woman waits in their beach house for the ret urn of her husband. He is highly placed in the new democratic government that has replaced the old one of tyranny and terror. His vehicle has broken down and he is given a life home by a friendly and cultured stranger who is in- vited to spend the night. She believes she recognizes him as the man who tor- t ured her some 15 years earlier when she was a political prisoner because of her love for the man who has become her husband. She subdues him and with the dubious unwill- ingness of her husband sub- jects him to a night and day of interrogation for the sup- posed simple purpose of having him admit guilt and freeing her from the demons that have possess- ed her for a decade and a half. We will not disclose more. Is the stranger the man she believes him to be? If so, does he possess even a shred of remorse? And, if the remorse is stated, is it genuine or simply a transparent at- tempt to escape from a woman possessed? Each viewer must make his or her own determination. Fiona Reid is the woman, R. H. Thomason is her hus- band and Ray Jewers, the stranger. All three are ex- cellent actors and manage to rise above Jonas Jurasas' computer driven direction of Dorfman's brittle dialogue. To be fair, the dialogue might be miss- ing something in a possible translation in which case the case direction can be forgiven for approaching a Nick and Nora slickness at times. Fiona Reid is all quiet power as the woman on the threshold of her salvation. She flirts with hysteria but always pulls back in time. What screams there might Wine & Cheese Show At CNE Exhibition Oct.8 Rediscover the elegance of champagne and caviar this month with the brand new fall edition of The Toronto Wine & Cheese Show. This illustrious celebration of taste will debut in the Automotive Building at Exhibition Place over the Thanksgiv- ing weekend, Oct. 8 - 11. "The 10th annual Toronto Wine & Cheese Show held last spring was such a huge success and so much fun for exhibitors and visitors alike that we decided to wine and dine everyone again in the fall," explains Ralph Weil of MSP Shows Inc.. producer of both the spring and fall wine and cheese shows. "We're still keeping the spring show at the Interna- tional Centre. We're going downtown to the Automotive Building with the fall edition only," clarifies Weil.

R. H. Thomson's role is not so well written but in his quiet and earnest way he conveys the muddled emotions of a man striving for the civilities of a new way of life whilst still recalling the evils of the past. Ray Jewers has a dif- ficult role to play. Is he in- nocent or is he the beast who played Schubert's Death and The Maiden while torturing women by taking away their maidenhood violently? No more now from this reviewer. Readers must simply take our recom- mendation to see this mov- ing work. Here's the tiniest of hints. Do not be tempted to leave when you think the play is over, or should be. Join the principals for the live concert by The Baro- que Ensemble playing Death and The Maiden.

FAST EXIT: After this is filed, we're leaving again for Gloucester, Massachusetts to revive our parched soul with the flaming colours of the New England states as they prepare for winter.

Very much in the news lately, largely due to the Supreme Court case of Sue Rodriguez (a Victoria woman who wants a physi- cian to assist her to die), the question is uppermost in the minds of Canadians. In both Gallup and Angus Reid Polls over 3! 4 of Cana- Caradan cab � so0w dians have indicated they Wed. October 6, 1993 THE NEWS' POST Page 7 with Rene Soetens, M.P. Canada is rich in natural resources, especially energy. A thriving resource sector is important to building a strong and prosperous nation. At the same time, we must manage our resources in a responsible way and ensure their use has a minimal impact on the environment. Industry Development We restored sanity to energy policy and are making Canada a better place to do business. We put an end to the Liberals' disastrous National 'Energy ThWestern Accord got rid of well -head taxes and regulation of oil and gas prices. The resource sector benefits from the GST because there Is no longr any sales tax applied directly or indirectly to in- vestment casts. Petro -Canada is being privatized. 19.5 per cent of its shares were sold in July 1991, raising $520 million for the company. After a second share issue in December 1991, 30 per cent of the company is in private hands. We cut and streamlined National Energy Board rules. We also moved the head office to Calgary - the centre of Canada's petroleum industry. New Opportunities The Free Trade Agreement with the U.S. opened tip new opportunites for the energy sector. The North American Free Trade Agreement ( NAFTA) will improve oppor- tunities for Canadian trade and investment in Mexican markets for energy goods and services. Research and Investment We made changes to encourage foreign investment and allow Canadian firms to improve their competitiveness in global markets. In the December 1992 Economic Statement. we announc- ed changes to encourage investment by helping small oil and gas companies raise money. We improved tax incentives far research and develop- ment. mai" Projects Investing in our energy hrture means skilled jobs, exper- tise, and development of energy frontiers. We worked with Husky, Alberta and Saskatchewan to develop the Husky Oil Upgrader in Lloyd<nimster. Our share of the $1.63 billion project is 31.7%. We will fund 35 per cent of the NewGrade heavy ail upgrader up to SM million. Our partners are Saskat- chewan and Consumers' Cooperative Refineries. After an environmental review, we contributed $150 million to build the Vancouver Island Natural Gas Pipeline. We are partners with Mobil W. Chevron, Petro -Canada and Murphy Oil in the Hibernia Oil project. We committed up to $1.04 billion to build the project, plus loran guarantees of up to $1.66 billion. We also have an 8.5% stake in the pro- ject ( net coo of $290 million) . We contributed $45.5 million to complete an engineering study of the OSLO oilsands project in Northern Alberta. The Environment and Energy We must manage our resources in a responsible way and ensue their use has a minimum effect on the environment. We passed the Energy Efficiency Act, allowing us to set minimum energy efficiency standards for equipment. The Energy Efficiency Act also sets rales for energy coo- surnptim labelling. Under the Green Plan, we are encouraging a more energy-efficient building industry. The Canadian Energy Management and Environmental Training Program helps the industry increase energy effi- ciency and reduce its impact on the environment. We set out a plan to improve the performance of new transportation fuels and make them more available. $12 million will boost ethanol output, help research, and expand development projects for this new fuel. We removed the excise tax on ethanol and methanol in Wended fuels.

Dressage is a system for training horse and rider that has its roots in ancient Greece. All work is done on the flat. The rider learns proper use of the natural aids - hands, legs, and seat - to guide and control the horse. The horse learns balance, straightness, rhythm, impulsion (where forward movement is driven by the hind quarters), extension (lengthening of steps) and collection (shortening of steps). Dressage builds flexibility and gymnastic ability in both horse and rider. Early levels emphasize walk, trot, and canter on a straight line and in circles as the horse learns to carry his weight and that of his rider with safety and elegance. Horses also learn to halt on command with the four feet placed square- ly, and remaining im- mobtle for four seconds. In Dressage competi- tions, each horse rider combination performs a set test before a judge. In ad- ditioin to marking on how accurately the horse and rider performed the test. the judge will give marks on the paces of the horse, the obedience of the horse, and the position and seat of the rider. Marking is tough - 50% is a good score in dressage, with scores above 70% rarely seen even in the Olympics. Success in Dressage requires prac- tice, discipline and sound training, as well -as talent. Most Pony Clubbers compete in several aspects of the sport -show jumping, cross country and even mounted games as well as dressage. Dressage is a competitive form of the flat work that lays the founda- tion for all the rest, and high level competitors in all equestrian sports know its importance. In the show jumping world, for exam- ple. Ian Millar is known for the balance and gymnastic ability of his horses. Big Ben in particular turns amazingly well for such a large horse. and Millar credits practice at the same tasks these Pony Clubbers will be asked to do for helping to hone Big Ben's natural talent. Leitchcroft is south off Highway 7 just west of Leslie Street in Thornhill. Competition is scheduled to start at 8 a.m. and spec- tators are welcome without charge.

National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP). travel , Friends In Florida Some 2.5 million Cana- dians will visit Florida dur- ing the 1993-94 tourist season, spending from two to four billion dollars dur- ing their stay. Small wonder that tourist -related crime in Florida has in- crease by 11% since 1989! Recent events contribute further cause for concern among visitors. Yet, for many, the sun- shine State continues to be an attractive vacation destination. This is especially so for Canada's swelling "Snowbird" population. Currently, over half of Florida's Canadian visitors are aged 50 years and over. Few seniors will protest that, as a population seg- ment, they are probably more vulnerable to felonies - from pick -pocketing, assault and mugging, to confidence schemes and other scams or rip-offs. Also to consider are the other travellers such as the physically -handicapped. one parent families and children travelling alone. who are equally suscepti- ble to crime. Even the traditional nuclear families. whose members may feel relatively secure. are by no means immune. The fad is. when we are placed in unfamiliar cultural surroundings we all tend to become somewhat disoriented. For the most part, we look and act like strangers. The ag- ed, and individuals with special needs, represent an additional dimension of vulnerability as tourists. (]Mynd and operated by Canadians. Friends in Florida embodies a unique blend of personalized ser- vice and information to enhance the general securi- ty and the quality enjoy- ment time of fellow coun- trymen vacationing in Florida. Their basic service package is designed to reduce, if not eliminate altogether, the time lost, the problems encountered, and the crime risks incur- red in bustling airports. "Friends" also helps travellers settle in. They brief you on those sites, at- tractions, events and ac- tivities that best match a given set of interests, tastes and vacation goals. Then they provide valuable advice that should help you combat tourism -related crime and make your vaca- tion a safer one.
