Discipline Is The Answer
by Bob Watson
Many political and community organizations are
reaching out for solutions to the problems generated by
young people at school. on the street and in robberies.
The solution, in our opinion. is simple. Let's go back to the
1930's and 40's when parents, teachers and school principals
had the right to punish young people when they deserved
discipline. Today our ridiculous laws restrict even parents
from using ph-tsical discipline.
When parents and schools can exercise discipline, young
people will react appropriately and a large chunk of our
crime wave will be eliminated.
Then we believe it would be appropriate to have all 18
year olds enter our armed forces for two years - no exemp-
tions. The� would get $5 each a week for pocket money. But
at age 20 when they have had two years of good military
discipline. they would leave the forces with $15,000 cash
each to use to go to university or go into the business world.
Thus our beloved country would have trained personnel
ready for war or civilian tragedies and read-, for a great
life.
�Ontario Nurses Call
For More Accountability
OhM -inconsistencies, lack of planning and priorities. "
as well as an "over -reliance on. and under -use of. high-tech
devices'% Ina Caissey, President of the Ontario Nurses'
Association. has called for an overhaul of the province's
health care system.
The organization, which represents 50.000 Ontario nurses
has released a 12 -page report on the state of health care in
Ontario. "ReNnking Health Care-, to be distributed to
more than DDOADO individuals and families in all parts of the
province.
In a speech to introduce the ONA docunient, hia Caissey
listed three goals her organization had set for the docu-
ment: to identify the re� problems in the health care
system: to give people information about their personal
risibility in health care; and to share ONA's ideas
a improving the system.
As an example of the need for better understanding of ac-
tual problems in the system. she said. "For too long. people
have assumed that more monev means better health care.
That is simply not true."
She pointed oil that Ontario has the most expensive
publicly funded health-care systern in the worid, consuming
one in every three of the provixv . s tax dollars. Of that
ar. 44 cents go to hospitals. Another Z7cents go to OHIP.
most of it in payrnents to doctors.
But the enormous sums we spend are not reflected in the
levels of health people enjoy or in a better quality and quan-
tity of life. In fact. the level of health people en)oy is dic-
tated, to a large degree, by such non-mixtical factors as job
satisfaction. community roots, as well as environmental.
mdritional, and lifestyle choices.
The nurses' report refers to statistics on treating just the
three principal illnesses related to smoking - car-
chovascular and respiratory diseases, and all forms of
cancer - which cost Canadians $10 bWion annually. In On-
tario, drug and alcohol use alone add $5 billion to the cost of
health care.
The solution, the union president said, is to place greater
emphasis on disease prevention programs and to utilize
front-line workers more effeefively. For example, she said,
registered nurses can provide the information that people.
especially seniors, need about the safe use of medications.
They can run othex educational programs in the community
and assess health care needs, acting as a support system
for today's frequently isolated families.
Other savings, she said, lie in "a more accountable, bet-
ter planned system, not in throwing money at problems. -
Better planning would include -round-the-clock use of ex-
pensive technology, much of which is now available only
during the week and only during business hours."
"But the use of medical technology. at least in Canada, is

paid for by taxpayers and shotild be available to them. It is
a disgrace that people have to travel across the province to
get radiation when, too often, there is equipment siding idle
right in their own communities. "
Greater accountability could be achieved she said "if
hospitals, which are publicly funded, replaced their boards
with a mix of community representatives and providers,
who are more sensit3ve to broader issues and public con-
cerns about health care."
The report makes ten recommendations, including shif-
ting resources from institutions to community-based care;
expanding the role of nurses in the health care system; in-
sisting that the federal government continue to fund On-
tario's system. Under current legislation, within three
years, Ottawa will not contribute a penny to health care in
the province. Ina Caissey says that -only time will tell
whether the new federal government is more realistic
about its responsibilities as a source of the money we need
for health care in this province, and for all Canadians."

The Province of Ontario has pledged $3.75 frifflion invest-
ment to help bring a major art exhibit to Ontario. Pending
court approval in Perinsylvaiiia, The Barnes Foundation
exhibit of great French paintings will be on view at the Art
Gallery of Ontario next autumn.
This is a strategic investment of dollars that will generate
substantial economic benefits for the tourism industrv, and
significant revenues for Metro and the province. Tile ex-
hibition is expected to have an economic impact equivalent
to almost 1,000 direct and indirect jobs and an anticipated
direct wage bill of $11.3 million. It is expected to generate
out-of-town visit" spending of $35 million, and of this
amount, 17 per cent, or $5.8 miWon, would come from out-
side the province. Total provincial tax revenues of S5.5
million are expected.
'Ibis is exciting news which I'm pleased to bring you as
Wfinister of Culture, Tourism and Recreation. I believe that
bringing events and exttibitions of dits stature to Ontario is
essential for economic stimulation and job creation. and its
an important component of our provincial tourism
strategy. Revenues generated through this exhibition will
help the Art Gallery of Ontario to stabilize its financial posi-
tion. and become 1�ss dependent on tax dollars.
The Canadian Director of the United Food and Commer-
cial Workers International Union. Tom Kukovica. says that
witon members am delighted at the prospect of having
Toronto on the Barnes Foundation exhibit's internationai
tour. "The extra revenue will benefit the province, the AT,
Gallery of Ontario, business owners, and our individual
naembers. KeepLng tourism healthy and sustaining jobs in
the txxotality and service industries helps everyone," be

Start Pre -natal Classes
Expectant parents often
have a mistaken impres-
sion about when to begin
prenatal education pro-
grams.
It's not that they are
wrong." says Debbie
Laughton, a public health
nurse working with the
Scarborough Health
Department, "It's just that
there is so much to learn
and discover before the
seventh or eighth month of
pregnancy."
Actually there are many
reasons future parents
should consider going to
prenatal groups within
their first few month of
pregnancy.
One of the most impor-
tant revolves around
lifestyle choices. As far as
the developing baby is con-
cerned, decisions by
parents about diet. exer-
cise. smoking, drug or
alcohol use will have an im-
pact.
Laughton points out that
a healthy mother is more
likely to give birth to a
healthy baby. "It's impor-
tant to know that parents
can effect the developing
fetus," says Laughton.
Prenatal programs started
before mothers are 20
weeks along. give parents
time to focus on their own
health behaviours. The
earlier desirable changes
are made the better."
Why then do new parents
wait? One reason may be
the stereotypical television
image of noticeably expec-
tant females and their sup -

port partners practising
breathing exercises
together. Many parents -to -
be simply never realize
helpful groups are
available much earlier.
Jan Fordham, Program
Manager for the Reproduc-
tive Health Program in
Scarborough. wants to
change the public's percep-
tion to include early pro-
grams.
She believes the Health
Department's efforts com-
pliment late pregnancy
classes offered by private
agencies and hospitals and
says. "In the early
prenatal groups we can
devote more time to emo-
tional and social needs.
Rather than extensively
deal with health care and
support during labour, we
can focus on the many
other aspects of pregnan-
cy. birth and parenting.
Parents will have the
chance to plan ahead by ex-
ploring attitudes and feel-
ings ..
A soon to be father.
Howard Lex. had this to
say after attending the ear-
ly prenatal program in
Scarborough: "Classes
were very open with lots of
personal participation. I'd
recommend the program
for all first timers.'
Margaret Bangia, soon to
be mother, echoes Lex's
testimonial.
Bangia feels the four
classes were more than
just helpful. She com-
ments, "The group really
was very interesting and
enjoyable. Going to the ses-
sions removed my anxiety
and generated a lot of
discussion with my hus-
band. If we hadn't gone, we
many have never con-
sidered the many issues
and options available to us.
One option parents can
clearly choose is to start
prenatal education sooner
than later. Both Laughton
and Fordham say groups
are scheduled throughout
the year. "There's always
a program beginning in
time for prospective
parents to join," adds For-
dham.
For more information on
the Scarborough Health
Department's early
prenatal groups, readers

Department at 396-5468.

plained current and future
treatments for people with
arthritis at an Open Forum

thritis Society and director

Wellesley Hospital, Toron-
to. He is an authority on
biologics. an exciting. new
treatment being tested for
treating people with
rheumatoid arthritis.

great success when he

planations are easy for
everyone to understand.
Our audience learned so
much from him.'

GettingStarted in Coaching
Is this your first time coaching hockey?
Were you recruited to coach on registration
day? If so, there is help available.
As a first-time coach. you will have a
major influence on your athletes. Not only
will you affect the development of their
hockey skills and long-term enjoyment of the
game. you will also play a role in their
development as people. It is important that
you have effective resources to guide you
through this first season.
The first thing you should do is obtain a
copy of the booklet, "Getting Started in
Hockey", produced by the Coaching
Association of Canada and the Canadian
Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA), and
sponsored by 3M. Available through the
CAHA Resource Centre (1-800-667-CAHA)
or your Branch office, this booklet is a
valuable resource.
"Getting Started in Hockey" includes the
following features to make your first season a
successful one:
' five (5) sample practice plans
• checklists to co-ordinate pre -season details,
check players' equipment. and maintain your
First Aid kit
' forms to organize your player directory,
medical information and Emergency Action
Plan
information outlining your role as a coach,
and ups to help you communicate with
players and parents
' material devoted to teaching basic hockey
skills and Fair Play principles
To get you started obtain the following
information from your league convenor as
soon as possible:
- age range and level of your players
- number and location of practices and games
- insurance considerations
- special rules for your league
While "Getting Started" is an excellent
resource. it doesn't replace coaching
certification. Ask your Branch about the next
National Coaching Certification Program
(NCCP) Clinic in your area.
Good luck coach!

1Y. YOUR TOES:
In these militant times. it
was surprising that there
were no feminists pro-
testing outside The O'Keefe
as the ; National Ballet
began its Autumn '93
Season with The Taming of
The Shrew.
After all, it's a work that
seems -seems -to
demonstrate that women
are happiest when
dominated by men. The
truth. of course, is found in
Arthur Miller's All My Sons
where one hears the line. "I
wear the pants in this house
and. she beats me with the
belt!" Coincidentally or
otherwise,• the woman to
whom the reference is be-
ing made is named Kate.
Our feeling is that Mtilier
was paying homage to the
theme of Shakespeare's
Taming of The Shrew. That
homage is continued in
John Cranko's knee high
choreography of same to
the music of Stolze inspired
by Scarlatti.
Most ballets can be suc-
cessful with fine perfor-
mances in the starring
roles alone. This Taming
has them but, as well. has
excellence in every other.
Rn?'Iv in fact, will one ex-
penence and enjoy such a
completely satisfactory
cast as was presented on
Opening Night.
Karen Kain was
Katherine. Miss Kain has
been a major presence with
The National for. so long
now that one forgets she is

was Petruchio and quite
dazzled an admiring au-
dience. He has the requisite
air of insouciance coupled
wonderfully with physical
expertise. Several of the
leaps in Cranko's choreo
can probably be described
as what wrestlers call fly-
ing drop kicks. As perform-
ed by Mr. Conn they
become manifestations of
magical flight. He has
great strength as 'well as
his lifts( are almost text
book in their seeming ease.
So there are powerful
performances by the two
leads. What about the rest
of the cast?
Possibly it will suffice to
say that the roles of Bian-
ca's suitors were danced by
the high powered trio of
Jeremy Ransom. Ray-
mond Smith and Tomas
Schramek Mr. Ransom
and Mr. Schramek
highlight their comedic
thrusts ,with hints of mint
and generous lashings of
lavender. Both are
hilarious while never
forgetting that they are
dancers. Raymond Smith
wins Bianca and his dances
with Chan Hon Gob in the
role are almost ethereal in
their expressions of young
love.
Victoria Bertram and
Emily Molnar (the latter
substituting for Dominique
Dumais) transformed the
roles of the whores into ma-
jor delights. Both are spen-
diidly built women and one
quite envies the thought of
being saddled with or by
either.
The Tanning is to be
followed by an evening of
the short works. Pastorale.
The Rite of Spring (there's
an interesting combina-
tion) and the company
premiere of something titl-
ed Herman Scherman.
One anticipates an en-
joyable evening and, as
always. we'll be reviewing
:n full. It's difficult to con-
ceive, however, a more
satisfying evening of ballet
than Opening Night of The
Shrew.
ON THE TOWN:
Actually, On Your Toes
might well have served as
the cut line to describe the
official and grand opening
of Young Lok Restaurant in
North York's Madison Cen-
tre.
Owner Frank Hsu's
hospitality was extended to
over a thousand guests and
it seemed as though they
were all there. Truth to tell,
most of the guests did not
acquit themselves well.
Mayor Lastman was there
for the official ribbon cut-
ting and to make a few
remarks but could barely
be heard by those who tried
to listen because of the bab-
ble of those who obviously
didn't care to.
Then the food was served
buffet style. The food kept
coming and was tasty but
The Column tasted Iittle of
it because we simply refus-
ed to scrum with the hoi
polloi clustering around the
tables with out thrust arms
and stuffed mouths.
Truth to tell, we were
embarrassed by the
display and left early. As
we passed the kitchens, we
saw people actually
waiting outside them and
taking food off the serving
trays as the hard pressed
servitors were trying to get
them to the tables. Shock-
ing.
Accept our advice that
the food at Young Lok is
truly delicious but we ask
your indulgence in
awaiting a full review of it
until we've had the oppor-
tunity of sampling it again
in a more civilized manner.
OPERA NEWS:
Few were surprised by
General Manager Brian
Dickie's resignation and
departure from the Cana-
dian Opera Company. First
Glyndebourne, now the
C.O. C.
The company is continu-
ing its operations albeit
leaner and, on the surface
of things meaner, in the
corporate sense.
Artistically, Mozart's
Marriage of Figaro and
The Magic Flute are in cur-
rent short repertory at the
Winter Garden Theatre.
One can hardly imagine a
more intimate setting for
two such charming operas.
Both are well recommend-
ed by The Column which
also reconurtends that one
check ahead for dates and
times as well as reserva-
tions. Both works will be
well attended.
It's interesting to note
that The Marriage of
Figaro is in an Edwardian
setting and is directed by
Robin Phillips who was
given his ukase several
seasons ago by the Strat-
ford (Ontario) Festival. La

AT THE O'KEEFE:
The O'Keefe has an
eclectic line up of attrac-
tions to follow the National
Ballet. Sharon. Lois and
Bram present Candles.
Snow and Mistletoe on Nov.
25th. Opening on Nov. 30th
(St. Andrew's Day) it's the
Royal Winnipeg Ballet for
which we have a personal
affection. On Dec. 7th
(Pearl Harbour Day) La
Cage Aux Folks returns
for a short engagement.
It's a fine. big. dazzling
show. the sort of show with
which The O'Keefe comes
into its own. Sandwiched
between the Royal Win-
nipeg and La Cage is
Sankai .luku on Dec. 4th.
This is a Japanese com-
pany said to be the leading
international exponent of
Japanese Butch dance
which ahandons the tradi-
tional forms of Eastern and
Western dance in favour of
emotional expression.
Sounds interesting. One
wonders if Global's Rob
Davidson will attend in his
lilt.
AROUND TOWN:
One reads with some
puzzlement about the pro-
blem of North American il-
literacy: puzzlement
because being illiterate us-
ed to mean being unable to
read or write. Nowadays,
there are terms such as
"functional illiteracy"
(Crappo' Either one can
read and write or not),
"dysfunctional", "print
and script challenged" ad
infinitum and ad nauseam.
The Column doesn't
dismiss such legitimate
concerns but suggests that
"functional illiteracy" has
become confused with the
ability to express one's
self : to be articulate.

New Gardening Trends
The Civic Garden Centre,
777 Lawrence Ave. E.
(located in Edwards
Gardens), will have former
director of the Royal
Botanical Garden at the
University of British Col-
umbia and present director
of the Chicago Botanic
Garden and president and
CEO of the Chicago Hor-
ticultural Society, Dr. Roy
L. Taylor, as guest speaker
on Wed. Nov. 17 at 7:30
p.m.
Dr. Taylor has also serv-
ed as president of the Cana-
dian Botanical Association
and the American Associa-
tion of Botanical Gardens
and Arboreta. Currently. in
Canada, Dr. Taylor is an
honorary life member of
the University of British
Columbia Botanical
Garden and the British Col-
umbia Society of Land-
scape Architects.
Every age of gardening
reflects the fads of the day.
Today, the diversity of
trends is perhaps greater
than in the past as
gardeners attempt to
develop their own personal
theme for the garden. Dr.
Taylor will present an il-
lustrated slide lecture on
these trends, sharing with
the audience his observa-
tions and wealth of ex-
periece gathered over his
many years in this field.
For the past 1I years, the
Edwards Foundation had
provided funds for the Ed-
wards Memorial Lecture.
This generous gift enables
the Civic Garden Centre to
bring outstanding Cana-
dian and international
speakers to the Civic
Garden Centre without
charging a fee. Join us for
this special presentation.
Refreshments will be serv-
ed at the conclusion of the
program.

Canadian Children's Book
Week which begins this
Saturday. It's organized by
The Canadian Children's
Book Centre, a national,
non-profit organization
dedicated to promoting
Canadian children's
literature.
If we've read the release
properly. it seems to mean
that only literature by
Canadians is being pro-
motes. Fair enough one
supposes but surely
children should be given an
awareness of the literature
of all nations.
Anyway, a whole host of
activities are planned and
we urge all to consult daily
listings for times and
places. All of the events are
free.
Now, we can't resist
pointing out a fly in the well
intentioned ointment of ef-
fort. The aforementioned
release advises that a na-
tional media launch is
scheduled for this Friday
"to kick off the week long
celebrations". What's with
the football jargon".
Doesn't anything ever
simply begin anymore?
Oh, and no time was stated.
Articulation anyone?
On Mon. Nov. 15th one

There will be fun and

three guests and one
celebrity -plays scrabble
for 90 minutes. Tickets for
the evening are a modest
$85 per person and the cost
includes a Scrabble with
The Stars T-shirt. We
understand that some
tickets might still be
available by calling

Women's History Month
"HERstory of Work:
Recognizing Women's Con-
tributions" is the theme for
the second annual
Women's History Month
across Canada this Oc-
tober. Why the fora on
women and work? The
history of Canadian women
at work is quite simple:
women have always work-
ed.
However, women's work.
whether paid or unpaid. is
consistently less valued
than men's work - just
because it is done by
women. Consequently.
women's contributions to
Canada's economic and
social development have
gone largely unheralded
and unrewarded.
Historically, women's
work centred around the
family. household manage-
ment and community
development. Pioneer
women in Canada laboured
alongside their husbands,
planting crops. making
food and clothing and ten-
ding livestock. Their work
was considered vital. But
that changed with the In-
dustrial Revolution, which
brought the division of the
private and public spheres
of life, and the concepts of
paid and unpaid labour.
When women began to
enter the paid labour force
in the early 1900s, the only
acceptable careers were an
extension of their domestic
role - such as nursing or
teaching - at a much lower
rate of pay than their male
counterparts. During war
times, women in Canada
were propelled into
manufacturing and factory
jobs to ensure the vitality
of the nation's industrial
sector while men were
away at war. At the end of
World War II, however,
women were once again
relegated to their homes
and domestic life.
Today, the workplace
has drastically changed.
Women now represent 45
percent of the paid
workforce in Canada, and
have many more choices
than their foremothers.
Many occupational bar-
riers have been removed.
Despite these advances, on
the average, a women
earns about 70 cents to
every dollar earned by a
man; the figures are much
less for many aboriginal
and immigrant women.
Women are often limited
to lower paying jobs - ap-
proximately 80 percent of
administrative support ser-
vices are occupied by
women. While women now
account for almost half the
workforce, they continue to
bear primary responsibili-
ty for family and
household.
The reality of women's
contributions to work in
Canada now is truly ex-
traordinary. Between 1975
and 1991, worsen accounted
for almost three quarters
of employment growth in
Canada. Women start
businesses at three times
the rate of men. And it is
estimated that women's
unpaid work accounts for
one third of Canada's Gross
National Product.
Women's History Month
is designed to foster an ap-
preciation for the past and
present contributions of
women in Canada. Many
events are being planned
across the country to in-
crease awareness and
understanding of the role of
women and work in
Canada.

The Sea World and Busch
Gardens parks uphold the
company's "A Pledge And
A Promise" responsibility
by building public ap-
preciation and understan-
ding of animals, con-
tributing valuable
research, and conducting
rescue and release pro-
grams.
The first step toward
making "Manatees: The
Last Generation?" a reali-
ty was taken in 1976. That
year, Sea World organized
its Manatee Rescue and
Rehabilitation program in
cooperation with the
Department of the Interior,
the National Marine
Fisheries Service and the
Florida Department of
Natural Resources. The
Marine Mammal Protec-
tion Act of 1972 and the En-
dangered Species Act of
1973 empowered the park to
create one of the most
dynamic and far reaching
animal rescue and release
programs anywhere.
Over the years. the park
has responded to more than
a thousand calls. aiding ill.
injured or orphaned
manatees, whales.
dolphins. otters. sea turtles
and waterfowl. Sea World
of Florida's sister parks in
Texas, Ohio and California
have similar programs for
animals in need. each park
bearing all costs incurred
with the rescue, rehabilita-
tion and release opera-
tions. Last year. Sea World
of California alone rescued,
cared for and released hun-
dreds of beached and in-
jured seals and sea lions.
Memorial Day weekend
also marks the premier of
two other exciting addi-
tions to Sea World of
Florida. The rugged nor-
thern Pacific coast comes
alive at "Pacific Point
Preserve". a new seal and
sea lion habitat. Complete
with beaches, cliffs, grottos
and huge hand -carved out-
croppings of upturned
coastal rock, the450.000
gallon pool is home to
several species of pin-
nipeds. including Califor-
nia sea lions and fur seals.
Visitors have the oppor-
tunity to interact with these
sleek mammals above the
water, while underwater
viewing reveals their speed
and agility. Waves at
"Pacific Point Preserve"
allow for the animals to
show off their surfing abili-
ty, too.
Also new this summer
was "Hotel Clyde and
Seamore", a hilarious com-
edy with a conservation
message show. The new
production finds Clyde and
Seamore, the park's sea
lion stars, running a local
hotel. True to its antic -
filled form, nothing com-
pares to a stay at "Hotel
Clyde and Seamore"
There will be a maximum
of 22 persons on the tour, so
that the tour will not be
overcrowded and everyone
will be treated as a
welcome guest.
The hotels are first class
where possible and in fact
some are the former
palaces of Indian Mahara-
jas. There will be an oppor-
tunity to witness one of the
largest and most exotic of
India's cultural events, The
Republic Day Parade and
although we will certainly
visit many of the most
historic sites in India and
Nepal. we will also ex-
perience the adventure of a
Camel Safari into the
desert and an Elephant
Safari in the jungle.
Parades, colourful people,
forts, temples. cultural
events, tigers, the
Himalayas, and everyone's
travel dream. the fabulous
"Taj Majal". What more
could one ask'
There is much more. not
the least of which is that
flying will be via Thai Air-
ways across the Pacific
and there will be an oppor-
tunity for a day's visit to
Bangkok. A taste of
another Far Eastern
culture. The meals
throughout are excellent
and should you prefer

New Bounce For
Arthritis Sufferers
Dr. Marc Marciniak is a
sports medicine specialist
with more than 20 years ex-
perience, and is the
medical director of Sports
Medicine & Rehabilitation
Clinics in Pickering, Ajax
and Durham College in
Oshawa. He is at the
forefront of a new bio -
innovation for the treat-
ment of osteoarthritis.
SYNVISCO (hylan G -F
20), is an elastoviscous
joint fluid supplement with
superior viscosity, elastici-
ty and shock -absorbing
ability.
"This revolutionary
therapy is easing the pain
of osteoarthritis sufferers,
enabling them to restore
their normal life function of
daily mobility and exercise
with enhanced strength.
flexibility and overall im-
provement of their quality
of life," said Dr. Mar-
ciniak.
'Ibis treatment is ideal
for patients with early
stage osteoarthritis who
are in a lot of pain, or for
people who have developed
low to medium -grade
osteoarthritis associated
with wear and tear on the
knees," he added.
When SYNVISCO is in-
jected into the joint space,
it provides lubrication, pro-
tection and shock absorp-
tion to joint tissues, car-
tilage and pain receptors
(nerves). The medical
term for tis treatment is
viscosupplementation.
"You wouldn't drive your
car without proper lubrica-
tion and shock absorption,
yet patients with osteoar-
thritis continue to walk on
knees that don't have pro-
per lubrication and protec-
tion of joint tissues, nerves
and cartilage," explains
Dr. Marciniak.
This substance is natural
to the knees, and when you
inject it, you help get rid of
knee pain, so that people
can be active without using
many of the drugs which
commonly just "mask"
pain while other serious
side effects from such
medications sometimes ap-
pear in these patients.
