Steeles Ave.
Pickering Council is
trying to pressure Metro
Toronto Council into
widening Steeles Ave. to
pin the widened Taunton
Road for better traffic
movement between Metro
Toronto and the Region of
Durham.
For a couple of years
Durham Region Council
widened Taunton Rd. but
Metro Toronto only talked
about widening their Steeles
Ave. which joins Taunton
Rd. at the boundary
between two regions.
The two lane Steeles Ave.
has a steady flow of
Pickering area cars flowing
westwards every working
day and the movement is
very slow because a four

Letter To The Editor
The Price Of Water
Dear Mr. Ashton:
Thank you for your letter of 24 Feb. last. 1 am afraid that
we are communicating past one another. Your position now
appears to be the same as fir. Ferguson's in that you think
of the sewage disposal levy as a tax and is to be thought of in
the same way as the property tax and the use that tax is put
to.
%%ben :Metro Council derided to cover the sewage disposal
costs by adding to the charge for water to the constituent
municipalities of Metro Toronto it changed it from a tax
levy to a charge for a service. This involves the principle of
quid pro quo. In other words the municipal utilities are in
business - the business of selling water and electricity. If
you want more electricity you pay more.
Scarborough Public Utilities presently bills me for my
use of electricity. my consumption of eater and presumed
use of a sewage system. The amounts for electneity and
water vary from month to month based on use. For those
who are not connected to the sewage system they are re-
quired to pay for a service they do not receive and pay for it
as a proportion of their water bill.
This is equivalent to the Bell Telephone deciding to pro-
vide a T%' cable service and charge all Bell customers for
the service regardless whether they want to use it or rot
and calculate the charge on the basis of the telephone
usage. The CRTC would jump on that in no time at all.
Why" Simply because it would be fraudulent.
I have suggested a simple remedy to this injustice. A
municipal public utility would forward to Metro a list of all
properties not using sewers and the amount they were
charged for sewage and Metro would then once a year
remit the overcharge to those property owners.
This problem is not one for the City of Scarborough or the
Public Utilities of Scarborough to correct, unless they make
the same calculation outlined above and remit the over-
charge to the property owner and then bill Metro for the
total of those remittances.
The remittance followed above should in no way relate to
whether the property is sewered but the sewer is not con-
nected, the property is about to be sewered or the property
is unlikely to ever be severed. It is to correct a wrong. The
wrong being that you are forcing people to pay for a service

News From Ottawa
from Dan McTeague
MP Ontario Riding
The GST On Reading
Material Before Committee
in keeping with his election campaign position against the
GST on reading materials. Dan McTeague. M.P.. Ontario
Riding, participated in a meeting of the House of Commons
Finance Committee currently studying alternatives to the
GST. Appearing as witnesses before the Committee was the
Don't Tax Reading Coalition.
"1 have been categorically against the application of the
GST on reading for some time and I am pleased the Don't
Tax Reading Coalition was able to appear before the Finance
Committee during its inquiry into GST alternatives." said
McTeague.
"As 1 said at the Committee, the real problem in terms of
access to education is that while we talk about formalized
training. many people do use books to improve their skills
and broaden their horizons in order to be better qualified for
job opportunities." added McTeague.
"The costs of books are expensive enough without the
added burden of the GST. Instead of taxing reading
materials. we should he encouraging reading and
encouraging individuals who are trying to better themselves.
Taxing reading materials thwarts the ability for these people
to get information to assist them in obtaining a job.
Furthermore. a tax on reading materials is contrary to what
we. as a government, want to do to assist individuals in
becoming employable." said McTeague.
"I crhmmend the Don't Tax Reading Coalition for their
fight to have the GST removed from books and for taking the
initiative to appear before this important Committee. I
believe books do indeed rate and there should be no tax on
reading. As a member of the governing party. 1 will continue
to work to ensure that whatever alternative is selected for
the GST. it will not tax reading materials." concluded
McTeaeue
Debate On Electoral Boundaries
Dan McTeague, M.P. Ontario riding. took part in the
debate on Ball C-18: An Act to Suspend the Operation of the
Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act in the House of
C'ornmons; on Mar. 24th.
"1 believe the addition of more seats in the House of Com-
mons is unnecessary Riven the expense associated with ad-
ding more M.P.'s and the demand by Canadians that
Parliament first get its fiscal hotee in order," said
McTeague.
"1 represent a riding with WS.1Mf11 constituents and this
figure is very large in comparison to other ridings in
Canada. That is why, while 1 do not supprt adding more
seats. I believe there should be a better distribution of con-
stituents within existing ridings.- added McTeague.
"ln addition• under the proposed electoral boundary
readjustments, Ontario Riding would undergo a significant
transformation. A new riding of Ajax -Pickering would be
created along with a redesigned Ontario Riding. Not only
would two new ndings be created, it would be done in a way
which would cut the Town of Ajax in half without any
regard to preserving the town's historic and community
identity. You cannot simply draw a line through a town the
size of Ajax without disturbing the homogenous character
and local identity of the community.** said McTeague.
Canadians want better representation and fiscal respon-
sibility not more representatives and ridings. Mie do not
need more seats, we need a better distribution of the
populations in the seats we have now. That is why I support
Bill C-18 and its suspension of the proposed new electoral
boundaries. i look forw•ad to participating with the commit-
tee being considered to examine this issue in further details
and I hope it will bring forward an alternative to the present
system which simply adds more seats after every census
rather than saving money and providing a system of
representation which better serves Canadians,— concluded
McTeague.
they do not use.
94r. Rutherford has argued that everyone in Metro
benefits from the sewage system and therefore everyone
should pay a share. If this is the basic principle then the
sewage system expense should have continued to be
covered by the Metro property taxes. The fact that Metro
made this change suggests that it was done simply to give
the impression that the property tax rates would be lower
than they otherwise would be.
Sincerely yours.

Radioactive Soil Is Federal- Provincial Problem Says Mayor
by Earl Johnston
The removal of radioac-
tive soil from the Malvern
community is a federal -
provincial responsibility,
says Scarborough's mayor.
"It's your mess. You
clean it up," Mayor Joyce
Trimmer told federal and
provincial government
representatives during a
meeting of the Ad-
ministrative and Finance
Committee.
The committee was con-
sidering a report from the
Malvern Remedial Project
Steering Committee, which
proposes to move con-
taminated soil from Mc-
Clure Cres. and McLevin
Ave. to a temporary site in
the Tapscott industrial
area. A permanent
disposal site is yet to be
found.
Brad Franklin, a Federal
Government Senior Public
Affairs Officer, said in an
interview that a radioac-
tive paint was used to pro-
duce luminous dials for air-
craft during the 1940's.
Later it was used on wat-
ches and clocks.
In 1945, the National
Research Council and the
RCMP investigated a Scar-
borough farm where ar-
tifacts were being burned
to leech out the radium.
The material was reported-
ly spread on the fields to
make the crops grow
faster.
While no further action
was taken at the time. a
report advised further
study if development of the
lands was ever proposed.
Franklin said. But the
report had been forgotten
when the lands were finally
developed in the 1970's.
Two journalism students
discovered the report in
1960, and testing with ad-
vanced technology reveal-
ed radioactive material at
48 houses on McClure Cres.
Further contamination was
later discovered on
McLevin Ave., where
material had apparently
been dumped. A solution
has centred around the
temporary relocation of the
contaminated soil in Scar-
borough, Franklin said,
because none of the
municipalities around
Metro wanted it.
Geraldine Underdown of
National Resources
Canada told the A. do R.
committee that the
Tapscott site is appropriate
and there is no reason for
concern.
Steven Buckley of the
M. R. P.'s Public Liaison
Committee said he was
satisfied that the concerns
of the people in the
Tapscott area had been
heard. Gordon Laschinger,
Ontario co-chair,
acknowledged that
everyone was not happy
with the proposed site but
said it was a fair com-
promise-
Speaking in support of
the project, lawyer Jim
Harbell said a display in
the Malvern Town Centre
had attracted 200
signatures in favour of the
recommendations. Forms
were available for anyone
in opposition, but none
were received. he said.
However, one woman in
the audience said she
hadn't seen the booth or she
would have signed against.
"I feel you get the one side -
the government side," she
said.
"This area (Tapscott in-
dustrial community) is the
future of Scarborough. I in-
vite you to protect it," said
Yvonne Hamlin, a lawyer
representing the Coalition
Against a Radioactive
Tapscott. "Nobody
believes that it's not going
to leak. Nobody trusts
anyone on this issue."
Hamlin said money could
be saved by moving the
radioactive material
directly to a permanent
site in Utah. The material
originally came from the
U.S., she said, and with
"some low level politics,"
the Utah installation could
be talked into taking it.
But Franklin said the op-
tion had been explored and
they didn't want it in Utah.
"Some of it obviously came
from the U.S. but some of it
came from Canada," he
said.
Mickey Snow, the owner
of two parcels of land adja-
c-ent to the proposed
Tapscott site, said "I
believe it wowd result in
the contamination of my
land..,
Councillors Marilyn
Mushinski and Sherene
Shaw agreed that the mat-
ter was not within the qty's
jurisdiction.
Councillor Ron Watson
said the city had felt corri-
passionate, because the
problem was within its
boundaries. "Scarborough

of units which will be created. Lands not required to fulfill
park conveyance requirements of subsections 42(3) and
51(7) of the Planning Act, shall be permitted to be
developed in accordance with the Medium Density
Residential designation. The proposed official plan
amendment also provides a minimum boundary for the

Restructure
Employees
At Centenary
Centenary Health Centre
has annowiced the layoff of
five of its management
staff. 26 voluntary exits by
staff. and another 33 ,jobs
that will have been im-
pacted as a result of the
first phase of restructuring
initiatives at the hospital.
Faced with a potential
deficit of $2.7 million for
the 1994-95 fiscal year. the
hospital has reorganized
patient care delivery in
order to maintain quality
service within the current
funding restraints.
The restructuring in-
volves a move to Program
Management which defines
five patient care group-
ings: Geriatric Rehabilita-
tion; Medicine, Mental
Health, Surgery; Maternal
and Child Services. Follow-
ing closely, with a planned
spring implementation
date, is Patient Focused
Care, a unit -based ap-
proach to care delivery. In
both cases the decen-
tralization of hospital ser-
vices will result in job
redundancies, primarily in
management positions.
Centenary Health Centre
is a 500 bed community
hospital in Scarborough
caring for over 250,000 pa-
tients annually on an in -
and outpatient basis, and
employing nearly 2,000
staff.

mediate plans for their
windfall. Linda said she is

Bill Watt's Worlds
TORONTO:
Dazzling should not be
the word to describe an
opera performance but it's
the best, indeed the only.
one we can find for the
Canadian Opera
Company's current produc-
tion of La Traviata at The
O'Keefe.
The set design - mirrored
planes married to tradi-
tional props - by John
Ferguson is dazzling. The
costumes of John Pen-
noyer, especially in the
first and second act
ballroom scenes, are dazzl-
ing. The lighting design of
Michael Whitfield is dazzl-
ing in its artistry and
technique. And. those are
only the visual effects.
The prime focus of an
opera must be the presen-
tation of its music and here
too, the operative descrip-
tive must be, dazzling.
Nominally, there are three
principal roles but The Col-
umn dares not mention less
than four and their inter-
preters.
Mezzo soprano Tania
Parrish is Flora, friend of
Violetta. Though the
character is supposed to be
an empty one. Miss Parrish
displays the warm affec-
tion of a true friend and
gives the role a depth rare-
ly realized. And, of course.
she's dazzling to see as well
as hear.
Baritone Sigmund Cowan
as Alfredo's father is a
distinguished and courtly
man of affairs torn bet-
ween basic humanity and
the exigencies of social
codes. In character he is
not dazzling but when be
gives voice to it, he dazzles
the ear with the emotions
he wrings from his
sonorous figures.
Tenor Stephen Mark
Brown as Alfredo'. The pro-
-�� Around and About
Your Dining & Entertainment Guide
blem facing anyone in this
role is similar to that of
playing Pinkerton. Both
characters are con-
siderably less than sym-
pathetic, both are fun-
damental twits. One sup-
poses the highest compli-
ment to be paid is that the
character is dazzling in its
stupidity and Mr. Brown's
portraval of same almost
overshadows his superb
singing voice.
As Violetta, there is no
highest compliment that
,can be paid to soprano
Gwynne Geyer. There is no
adequate superlative to
describe the purity of her
voice, none to convey her
characterization of a
courtesan destroying
herself by high living and
ultimately destroyed by
love.

Founded some 19 years ago the Clinic now serves 51423 patients.
Fellow 1973 graduates from the University of Toronto. Drs. R. Charyk, L. Lerner and M.
Ingber, set up practice in a small strip plaza south of Sheppard Avenue at Lapsley Road in a
largely rural. government owned area. A need for more space led them to build the Malvern
Medical Arts Building which was opened by the Mayor of Scarborough in 1988, and which
won the coveted Urban Design Award.

One hesitates to suggest

hesitation in writing that
Miss Geyer's Violetta is the
one against which all
others must now be
measured.
Mention must be made of

direction of Jan Latham -
Koenig. Verdi's score is as

DAZZLING'
NORTH PORK:
"A man's reach should
exceed his grasp" comes to
mind after seeing the Leah
Prsluns Theatre's 30th an-
niversary production of
Fiddler On The Roof. It's
an ambitious one and huge-
ly enjoyable but there's
something lacking:
something that keeps it
from being a triumph.
Perhaps it was opening
night jitters as manifested
by missed cues. slow and
inexpert scene changes.
singers off key. actors
literally stumbling.
Perhaps it was
choreography beyond the
accomplishment of some of
the dancers. Perhaps it
was the struggle of the or-
chestra to give full
dynamic value to the score
with a too small comple-
ment. Perhaps it was the
poor body miking-
Yet. though not a
triumph. this Fiddler is, we
repeat, most enjoyable and
is so because of a fine cast.
The principal role. that of
Tevye. was created by Zero
Mostd, a former burlesque
comedian who finally made
it on Broadway. Since then
it has been played by
scores of others including
the Israeli actor Topol in
the motion picture and
subsequently on tour.
Reliable Gerry Salsberg
is Tevye in this prodtrcti�n.
Comparisons are odious, of
course. but The Column en-
joyed his performance
more than that of the un-
polished Mostel and too
polished Topol. Mr.
Salsberg's Topol seems to
have immersed himself in-
to the role so that he
becomes the beleagured
Dairyman trying to see his
five daughters married
properly and clinging
tenaciously to the faith of
his fathers.
In fact, the only hint that
it's Gerry Salsberg in the
role is that twinkle in his
eye. We've seen the
gentleman in many roles
over the years and have
always enjoyed that
twinkle but never more
than in his playing of
Tevye. There should be a
Dora nomination here.
The cast is large and our
space is limited but among
the players here are a few
who should be mentioned.
Deedee Langford as
Tevye's wife Golde is pro-
perly shrewish while still
being a loving mother and,
in her own reluctant way, a
good wife.
Jack Duffy. a long way
removed from his Town
Crier days is tastefully
comedic as the elderly
Rabbi and Frank Ruffo's
athleticism is manifest
whenever he's on stage
even though his makeup
and costuming make him
appear as a tall Toulouse-
Lautrec.
Special praise too for Ra-
quel Duffy as the daughter
Hodel. She has a fine sweet
voice to match her face and
demeanour.
Perhaps this Fiddler is a
triumph after all. Or, close
to it.
CURTAIN CALL:

OTTAWA:

is being invested as an of-
ficer in the Order of
Canada. He is the founder
of the Juno Awards and
sole owner and publisher of
R. P. M. Weekly which he
began 30 years ago.
The rank of Officer
recognizes national service
or achievement and Walter
most certainly deserves
such recognition for all he
has done for the Canadian
recording industry. For our
money, however. he should
be accorded the rank of
Companion for interna-
tional performance. He has
arguably done more than
any other single person to
advance the recognition of
Canadian popular music
abroad.
Anyway. Walter will
stand correctly military
tonight to receive his
award and afterwards will,
we predict, indulge himself
in one of his patented gen-
tle smiles.
Well done Walter. Wish
we could be there.

can't resist.
Of particular interest as
well was Mr. Rooney's ad-
vice that his antecedents
were not Irish as we had
supposed but rather, Scot-
tish. His father was born in
Edinburgh.
The Mick's next motion
