April '37, 1991 Opinion a page for expression for you and us On Bosnia by Bob Watson News reports from far away Yugoslavia - that was that country's name wasn't it? - are convincing Canadians that having our troops there is a waste of time and they should be brought back home. NATO troops standing around in that country receiving confinement by Serbians is hardly a worthwhile project. And having our troops standing by waiting to be killed if the United Nations approves bombing of the Serbians is hardly a positive use of our forces. We believe that a poll of Canadians would vote to bring our troops back from Bosnia as well as Somalia. They are doing no good in those countries and are risking their lives unnecessarily. Bilingualism tfy Bob Watson It has been brought to public attention that "official" bilingualism federally is costing at least Kit) million a year. Isn't that a great waste of money? In our country French- speaking Canadians and English-speaking Canadians are equal with their language officially and the government does not have to interfere But costs, mount when all documents and press releases are in both languages. We believe French-speaking people should get their documents and press releases in French only and English-speaking folks get theirs in English only. It would save many dollars. And. of course, our former Liberal government at Queen's Park put Ontario into the "official" bilingual category as well resulting in millions of tax dollars going into the waste bin in Ontario.

The enumeraiton is carried out every three years• in the same year as the municipal and school board elections and the information collected is used to prepare up-to-date voters' lists. The elections will be held this year on Nov. 14th. The enumeration is being conducted by the Property Assessment Division of the Ontario Ministry of Finance. The Ministry will mail a municipal enumeration form to each household in the province• along with a brochure which describes the municipal enumeration. tells what the information will be used for, and shows how to complete the form. The municipal enumeration form contains the most up-to- date information the Ministry has about the people who live at the residence. This information was obtained in the previous enumeration in 1991• or during the normal process of updating assessment records. The instructions in the enumeration brochure ask that an adult representing each household check the information, correct it and complete the form, if necessary: then sign the form. and return it by May 10th in the pre -paid envelope. The form should be returned even if all the information is correct. In addition to voters' lists, the information collected will be used to direct school taxes: to identify English-language and French -language school electors: to prepare lists of potential jurors: to assist municipalities and school boards with their planning: to prepare the Ontario Population Reports: and to update assessment records. The municipal enumeration will be supported by a province -wide advertising campaign• which also begins on Apr. 25th. This campaign includes radio and print advertisements. and encourages people to complete and return their form by May loth. News From Ottawa from John Cannis MP Scarborough Centre Sees Encouraging Signs Of Economic Renewal There have been same hopeful sifpnns recently that the government's plan for economic renewal is working. Many Canadians were very encouraged by the recent statistics an the unemployment rate. Statistics Canada reported that Canada's unemployment rate fell to 10.6, in March. a dramatic decline from a rate of II.I% in February. This brings us to a two year low• in the unemployment rate. but what is even more remarkable is that it was the largest monthly decline in the unemployment rate in ten years. Obviously there are many factors that influence these figures But 1 think it's fair to sav that there is a new sense of hope in Canada, a new confidence in our economy. There has been other good news recently. Statistics Canada has reported an increase in the help -wanted index, meaning that more employers are advertising new jobs. The Royal Bank of Canada has also released optimistic predictiri r on the ecoxxnv. The bank predicts increased growth in GDP• increased consumer spending and housing starts. and decreased unemployment. Inflation and interest rates '.Meanwhile. the International Monetary Fund has also predicted strong growth for the Canadian economy - stronger even that the level predicted in our recent Budget. The Dept. of Finance has announced that the federal deficit dropped 24% in February compared to the same period last year While most of the drop was due to lower debt charges. the Finance Department also reported a surprising improvement in revenue due to an improving economy. This good news confirms that we are well on the road to meeting our deficit reduction targets. Our February Budget confirmed the government's firm commitment to its election promise of reducing the deficit to three percent of GDP within three vears. As our infrastructure projects begin across the country, I am hopeful there will be more good news soon. I am very optimistic about Canada's economic future. Roval Bank chief economist Edward Neufeld recently said that the fundamentals of the Canadian economy are looking better than they have in many years. We have a realistic• specific plan for economic renewal• based on our commitment to job creations. economic growth, and deficit reduction. We will stick to our plan. I am convinced it offers the best opportunity for economic prosperity for all Canadians. Above all. we want to offer hope for a brighter future to the Canadian people. This is our challenge as Canada prepares to enter the 21st century. Queen's Park Report Anne Swarbrick, M.P.P. Scarborough West Ontario Government Steps Up War Against Welfare Fraud I believe our welfare system is one of the best in the world. It's designed to help people who are in need. For some time. our government has been working to make sure that only people who are eligible for welfare benefits receive them. I want to emphasize that the vast majority of welfare recipients are honest claimants. Unfortunately. a small percentage of claimants take advantage of our caring system, and we're pursuing these abusers more vigorously. In 1992, we hired 450 more staff to find fraudulent claims. We have been working with municipalities and providing them with funding to help crack down on fraud. The next step to prevent abuse is to re-examine every welfare case handled by the province and municipalities. 270 new specially -trained staff will be hired to do this investigation. $10 million this year, and $10 next year will go to municipalities to help them fight welfare fraud. (About half of all welfare recipients in Ontario have their cases administered by local municipalities.) If it's found clients don't live up to our requirements their benefits will be reduced or eliminated. To make sure cheaters aren't claiming social assistance benefits from any other .jurisdiction. Ministry of Community and Social Services staff will work closely with municipalities, other provinces, the federal government and the police as necessary. Where evidence of fraud is found. charges will be laid. This investigation won't affect the benefits which honest claimants will continue to receive. We expect to save more than $60 million next year and $90 million in 199.5-95 as a result of these investigatirxts. We'll save another $49 1 million a year through changes to benefits paid to couples. changes to shelter allowances, basic utility benefits and boarder charges. More savings will come from measures already in place. We intend to recover all overpayments which were made over many previous years. We're not going to cut holes in our social safety net, but we are making it more effective. We're providing alternatives to welfare through programs like ,jobsOintario Training. And we continue to develop new measures in our reformation of the Ontarin social assistance system.

April 27, 1994 THE VEWSiPOST Page 3 Scarborough General Hospital Leads The Way In Eye Donations In its short 38 year history, Scarborough General Hospital has established itself as a pace- setter and a leader in the health care industry. From innovative care delivery to responsible resource management, the hospital has maintained a commit- ment to improving the health of people in the com- munity. The hospital's number one priority continues to be the provision of outstan- ding care and service; however another initiative in which the hospital has taken on a leading role is in the area of eye donations. "We are the leading hospital in Ontario for eye donations,.. says Dr. Ray- mond Stein. Chief of Ophthalmology. The hospital contributes ap- proximately 30 eyes per month to the Ontario Eye Bank. "In 1993, our hospital had the highest percentage of eye donations in nine out of twelve months in Metropolitan Toronto, an ccomplishment we can all be very proud of," says Dr. Iry Feferman, Chief of Emergency Medicine. Dr. Feferman and his staff in the Emergency Department have made a concerted effort to alert pa- tients' families of the need for eye donations. Through their efforts, literally hun- dreds of patients have regained the precious gift of sight. One such individual is Carla Steiner, a registered nurse in the Emergency Department at Scar- borough General, who underwent a corneal transplant theree years ago. Steiner had been diagnosed with "Keratoconus", a condi- tion which causes a gradual change in the cur- vature of the cornea, resulting in distorted vision and gradual deterioration of the eye. "Prior to the transplant, I was legally blind in one eye," she says. "If I hadn't undergone the transplant, my life would have chang- ed dramatically. I would have lost my driver's licence and I probably would not have been able to continue my career in nurs- ing ., Steiner's life did change dramatically, for the better that is. Four hours after undergoing surgery in February of 1991, she had an improvement in her vi- sion. Today, three years after her surgery, Steiner remains extremely grateful to the family of the eye donor. "It's a wonder- ful thing to donate organs, whether it is an eye or another vital organ." Steiner's personal ex- perience has not only They're Looking For Loonies Put your spare coots to good use and help The On- tario Historical Society restore its new home. How can you help?

All phases of the custom of buying an cJre�ditt will be publicly discussed and examined during National Credit Education Week which will be observed throughout Canada and the United States over the period Apr. 24 -30th. The objectives of National Credit Education Week are to, quote: "encourage the broadest use of Consumer Credit, consistent with sound business principles and the welfare of the community and to counsel and protect consumers against the tragedy of going into debt beyond their ability to pay... It is all too apparent that there is a high incidence of irresponsible credit usage in Canada which has been exacerbated by the rigors of our recession battered economy. The sponsors of National Credit Education Week are the Credit Association of Canada, Associated Credit Bureaus, International Credit Association and Credit Professionals Inc. The citizens of every community where National Credit Education Week is observed should certainly benefit from media focus on the important role of Consumer Credit in our society. The merit of personal credit cannot really be evaluated. It is more than a temporary substitute for cash. It is a practical convenience which, when used intelligently and properly, serves as a symbol of integrity and a source of personal pride. The prudent use of credit bre many of the good things of life within reach of those who might never enjoy them if they had to defer each purchase until they saved the necessary cash. In essence Consumers throughout Canada and the United States are being urged to guard their credit as a sacred trust on the grounds that the availability of credit allows for a great measure of flexibility in Purchasing potential and payment planning - The Credit Association of Canada is rising the theme ..Good Credit - Eye on Tomorrow" for its campaign this year.

DINNER THEATRE: TWO Rodgers and Hammers- tein's The King and I con- tains the song Is A Puzzle- ment. It might well have been included in the cur- rent production of their The Sound Of Music at the Limelight Supper Club. It truly "is a puzzlement.. how such a dreadfully am- bitious but ambitiously dreadful production is ac- tually quite enjoyable. There are so many faults that to include all of them would be to indulge in diatribe. Some, however. include ridiculous hair styl- ing, laughable costuming (in a few instances), dread- ful direction and. worst of all, two leads who are quite simply not up tothe n demads of their roles. The female lead doesn't sing well and is only a marginal- ly accomplished actress. The mak lead can neither sing nor act. And yet. and yet. this Sound of Music is quite eu- joyabie and The Column believes it knows why. For starters, there is the work itself. Our memory might be failing us but we believe it was the last col- laboration of Rodgers and Hammerstein before the death of the latter. For many it is their best. The songs have long since become more than mere standards: they are now beloved. And the book by Lindsay and Crouse is one of their better ones. As well, there are Around and About Your Dining & Entertainment Guide children in the cast. It's a show biz maxim that children can ensure suc- cess. In this production the seven youngsters who play the von Trapp children are exquisite. To be honest, one would have to be dreadfully hard hearted not to weep gentle tears at the sound of children singing. Their voices are sweet and un- sullied by the demands of adulthood. And, they believe in what they're :singing. Continuing to be honest, it might not be the case that these seven singers are in- deed exquisite but given the shortcorruings of the rest of the production, they seem so. You will enjoy The Sound of Music at The limelight and your custom is recom- mended. But. oh how much better it deserves to be'. POTATIONS: Given Canada's dreadful government at all levels since 1967, it's little wonder that we're polarizing into the historical social strata of the old world. There will soon be no middle class. only the upper and lower. the rich and the poor. the leisured and the working. The only good thing that remains from the country's more or less democratic beginning is that a member of the working class can still, for the time being anyway. work his or her way out of it in the worlds of entertainment and hospitality. So, it pleasured us when we were empanlled to judge at the 29th annual Bacardi -Martini and Rossi Gran Prix competition for Canadian young bartenders at George Brown College of Hospitali- ty. The competition was started in 1%8 and since that time has developed in- to one of the most impor- tant annual events for young Canadiam be they student bartenders or ac- tually plying the profes- sion.

(Continued on Page 12) travel Total Golf Experience At Horseshoe Resort Twenty seven holes of championship golf; a variety of instructional programs; a one of a kind driving range; and the lux- uries of an award winning Inn are among the attrac- tions golfers can look for- ward to at Horseshoe Resort this summer. "The goal of the 1994 season is to offer visitors a total golf experience," says Trevor Graham, Horseshoe's Director of Marketing. "Our approach combines 27 holes of challenging golf, profes- sional instruction for novices up to accomplished players, a full range of family and business packages, plus the very best of Ontario hospitality." Mr. Graham confirmed that Horseshoe opened its 18 hole, Valley Course and nine hole, Highlands Course and Range earlier this month "in response to golfers desire to put winter behind them and get bock to the game they love most... Throughout April. en- thusiasts can take advan- tage of the resort's "Early Golf' package that offers accommodation. breakfast and greens fees starting at $49 per person per night hosed on double occupan- cy. Until May 14th, daily golfers can enjoy 'opening rates' for 18 holes of play on the Valley Course for $26 or SM for two rounds of nine bole play on the HWdards Course. 1994 represents Horseshoe's most com- prehensive golf program to date, developed in conjunc- tion with Patrick Bowers, the resort's Director of Golf and a recognized member of the Canadian Professional Golf Associa- tion I CPGA 1. Both Graham and Bowers believe that the ap- peal of Horseshoe is its ability to "match the ex- pectations" of experienced players and emerging golfers who want value and excitement in their favourite pastime. Demanding players will be challenged by the rigours of the Valley Course for precision shot making. Those who prefer a more relaxed approach will enjoy the comfortable appeal and natural beauty of the Highlands Course. Again this season, the Horseshoe Golf School will present a full range of lear- ning programs under the guidance of Ian Burnett, Teaching Professional, and a host of CPGA instructors. Among the highlights of the School are the eight laser measured' greens and over an acre of bent grass tee's found at the Highlands Golf Course and Range. The innovative `practice and play' facility enables golfers to practice their game in as real and natural a setting as possi- ble. For visitors who hope to combine golf with other outdoor activities, Horseshoe is at the centre of 5000 acres of rolling woodlands, and offers the best of hiking, horseback riding, and mountain bik- ing. Throughout the '94 golf season the resort will an- nounce special "getaway packages" to encourage visitors to pamper themselves at The Inn at Horseshoe, located at the base of Horseshoe Valley. A recipient of the CAAi AAA Four Diamond Award, the highest rating bestowed upon a resort in Canada, the Inn at Horsehshoe, features elegant suites, fine dining, and fitness and spa facilities. Starting in May, the Resort will offer accom- modation at The Inn at Horseshoe, breakfast dai- ly, and a full round of golf from $99 per person, per night based on double oc- cupancy. Information on Golf pro- grams and reservations at the Inn at Horseshoe can be obtained through the resort at ( 705) 835-2790 or Toronto direct at =1,129M.

Apr. 20th, three busloads of students from Borden attended the Scar- borough Career Fair at Le Parc. Students had the oppor- tunity to talk with representatives from over 60 different careers and ask questions from such diverse fields as carpentry, welding, autobody repair, police, RCMP, banking, colleges, hairdressing, and computer companies. Both teachers and students found it an ex- cellent time to talk to business and find out first hand what requirements and opportunities exist in many different careers. The Borden students were among approximate- ly 12,000 students who visited the career fair over two days. ATTENDANCE AWARDS: Our most recent award winners for perfect atten- dance are Robert Borris and John Yayros.

Apr. 20th, three busloads of students from Borden attended the Scar- borough Career Fair at Le Parc. Students had the oppor- tunity to talk with representatives from over 60 different careers and ask questions from such diverse fields as carpentry, welding, autobody repair, police, RCMP, banking, colleges, hairdressing, and computer companies. Both teachers and students found it an ex- cellent time to talk to business and find out first hand what requirements and opportunities exist in many different careers. The Borden students were among approximate- ly 12,000 students who visited the career fair over two days. ATTENDANCE AWARDS: Our most recent award winners for perfect atten- dance are Robert Borris and John Yayros. Con- gratulations are in order for all previous award win- ners and we look forward to the end of the month when some lucky student will win a Sony Walkman. ASSEMBLY: On Thurs. Apr. 21, the whole student body at Borden enjoyed a special assembly. The Carousel Players staged an ex- cellent play which address- ed the problem of racism and discrimination in Canadian society. The play was well received and has given staff and students the opportunity to hold class discussions about racism. COMING EVENTS: On Wed.
