Boards That Make A Difference Workshop Sept.14 Join "Boards That Make A Difference", a workshop with Dr. John Carver, Ph.D., a management theorist whose ground- breaking model for gover- nance calls for nothing less than a "revolution in the boardroom". Focussing on true leader- ship, his workshop is presented by the United Way of Oshawa-Whitby- Clarington on Wed. Sept. 14, from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. and will be of specific interest to those who serve in a leadership role in both non-profit and public organizations. A management theorist, writer and consultant on governance and the board - management partnership, John Carver is the creator of the Policy Governance conceptual model for designing the board job. He is the author of numerous papers and publications, including the book "Boards That Make A Difference", Ronald Martino and Son Funeral Directors (Formerly of West Hill) Brock Road Chapel 1057 Brock Road (just south of 401, Pickering Family owned and operated. (416) 686-55$9 a new design for leadership in non-profit and public organizations. Over the past 20 years, Carver has observed that even the most talented and caring boards fail in their duty to lead because the traditional board structure weighs down volunteers with trivial, short term considerations and has allowed board. staff roles to become vague and unclear. Carver's focus is on true leadership, and his presen- tation will help you discover how your board can govern with "clarity", "values" and "vision". His comprehensive approach to board staff relations, policy development, ac- countability, evaluation and monitoring is certain to change the way you look at governance, forever.

September 7, 1994 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Scarborough Citizens Want Stephen Martin To Stay by Bob Watson A young man from Trinidad has won the support of many Scarborough people - and they don't want the federal government to force him to go back to Trinidad before he can apply to be an immigrant. Stephen Martin came to Canada when he was 17. He lives with his grandmother here but his stepfather in Trinidad will not take him into his house and this is a problem. So Stephen has stayed in Canada some time after his visitor's visa expired. This young man has done much in his community here giving leadership and assistance in a number of groups. He has taken the subjects in our education system and com- pleted them in a lot less time. Many Scarborough citizens have agreed that Stephen would be an excellent person to become a Canadian citizen. Now the pressure is on to persuade our government to allow this young man - now 23 years old - to stay in Canada and become a Canadian citizen. We hope a special decision can be made for Stephen. Quebec Won't Leave Canada by Bob Watson There seems to be, in our opinion, a lot of stupidity in this second election in the Province of Quebec with the PQ say- ing they want to separate Quebec from the rest of Canada' First of all, Quebec is part of Canada and so legally the citizens of Quebec cannot separate without the agreement of the rest of Canada. This has been pointed out by a number of commentators but most observers seem to believe that Quebecers can proceed with separation. The next point is that Quebec is a "have not" pro ince - meaning it takes about SW million from the federal treasury each year and is therefore not one of the three pro- vinces feeding more money into the Ottawa treasury than thew take out. Quebec, if it went on its own world have to face a large number of native peoples who will claim about a third of the Quebec land as their own. This would create a long crisis for the Quebec government. Another problem for Quebec is that our federal govern- ment. which has had four French Canadian Prime Ministers in a row, has allocated more industrial activity into Quebec than it should have been entitled to. This will disappear after separation. To separate Quebec faces economic chaos and a poorer life standard for its citizens. Will they separate' We don't believe they ever will vote for separation.

The Sun21, which will be featured at this year's Toronto In -Water Boat Show & Sale, utilizes various solar panels, wind generators, computers, water turbines and electric motors - all combined to produce a pollution free, reliable mode of water transportation. The Toronto In -Water Boat Show & Sale will run from Sept. 15 to 18. It will be located at the Outer Harbour Marina at the foot of Leslie St. Parking will be free and shuttle buses will take people from the park- ing lot to the displays. Over 100 boats will be in the water with a huge 18,000 square foot tent housing all manner of related displays. MacInnis has also in- itiated Sun Challenge, to showcase Sun21.

A 1:20 scale, radio powered model has been tested for the past two years, though no one has seen the completed 21 foot version. According to MacInnis, various com- ponents have been evaluated and refined, and will be assembled together later this month. Sun21 is scheduled to enter the water for the first time Sept. 1. The location and exact time have yet to be resolved, but it will be in Toronto's harbour and a precursor to this year's Toronto In -Water Boat Show & Sale. "It ought to be a remarkable sight," says MacInnis. "The graphics are being finalized for the sails. The artists working on them are developing a sunburst effect.

National Geographic ran a major piece on his ex- ploits. Last year MacInnis was a member of the Ford sponsored Overland Challenge, an around the world venture using all - wheel drive Ford passenger cars. MacInnis hopes his latest expedition with the Sun21 will draw attention to his ultimate dream -a 120 foot version that will navigate the world. This multi- million dollar adventure would visit 73 cities, 46 countries and six con- tinents. As envisioned by MacInnis this huge water- craft would be capable of live broadcasts from its decks.

By means of two different patented answering systems, the ET -2 and the ETA allow users to remote- ly control their heating or cooling systems by calling their cottage or home and following a simple set of in- structions. The base model ET -2 is a computerized power switch which is activated by two phone calls that are never answered ( thereby eliminating long distance charges!). Upon hearing an incoming call on either a party or privte telephone line, the ET -2 will activate a central heating system, one or more baseboard heaters, or a hot water heater for up to 8 hours. Installed on any standard private telephone line, the more advanced ET -4 is a telephone controlled "smart thermostat" which allows the user to maintain their cottage or home at one of two energy savings settings while they are away.

(Their speed is bred of cowardice and is to enable them to escape ratherthan confront an enemy. Even today, race horses -with some few exceptions -don't race, they bolt.)

The breed of horse pro- bably held in highest esteem is the Akhal-Teke of Turkmenistan in the former USSR. It has great stamina (it can cover 125 miles a day for weeks on end), great speed (long legs) and beauty (an ex- ceptionally long neck to see distant enemies and an iridescent coat). It was in danger of ex- tinction under the former bungling government but now is making a comeback of sorts. In Sacred Horses -The Memoirs Of A Turkmen Cowboy (Random House), naturalist Jonathan Maslow describes his travels to and in Turkmenistan to see and experience first hand the equestrian values of the Akhal-Teke. The book is part natural study, part travelogue and part political analysis. It's all interesting and enjoyable but each reader will have his or her own particular reason for enjoyment. For us, it was reading that the break up of the USSR has not yet changed the nature of the people (suspicious and drunken for the most part) or the workings of government ( ever watchful) . Neither has it notably changed the social structure. On a flight inside Russia - or whatever it should now be called -the author heard the uuurhistakeable sizzle of fat and detected the delec- table aroma of frying chicken. Then, the Aeroflot hostesses wheeled a cart of fried chicken platters ... up to the crew's cabin. The passengers were served black tea in a plastic cup, one lump of sugar in a railway train wrapper and a plain hard cootie. "Fried chicken was only for the heroes of socialist labra up in the cockpit... Mr. Maslow's writing style stands in need of tighter editing but it's breezy without being frivolous and his research has been substantial though not overpoweringly SO.

ON RECORD Something Of A Mystery is a self -produced collec- tion of new music compos- ed and performed by Jon Graham who lives just to the east of us in Oshawa. The title is quite apt. In the absence of liner notes it's not known if he has used other musicians or if all instruments, actual of svnthesized, are played by him and overdubbed. If the later, then the results are truly astonishing... clear smooth instrumentation that falls nicely on the ear. (Mr. Graham, or someone, plays keyboards in the styles of Roger Williams, Claude Thornhill and An- drb Gagnon. ) As well, one wonders just what was intended here. Oh, one could categorize it as late night listening but that wouldn't be accurate. There's a touch of Leroy Anderson on It's Only My Fancy, it's true but there's an echo of Lalo Shifrin on Earth Mission. The title tune is all very ceLvw* seascape sounds that recall Debussy but then, Bugsy is like a Virgil Thomson corn - position ... -very pretty piece. very pity piece' Other composers evoked are Dukas. Lloyd -Webber and even. Dimitri 7Uwakin. All the cuts are start and that might account for the repetitive hooks rather than sustained melodies on all of the compositions. By now, the mystery for some readers might well be just wotinell we're trying to say about Something Of A Mystery. It's probably as well that we simply say, en- joy it and don't ask why. ON SCREE.% The 19th annual Toronto International Film festival - formerly the Festival of Festivals -is with us again and once more there will be too many serous "little films". You know; the ones shot by hand held cameras against surreal backgrounds, and the like. The most notable excep- tion will be the special presentation on Sept. 10th of 1%4's My Fair Lady, newly restored to its original Super Panavision 70 dazzing brightness by Robert Harris and James Katz. They're the gentlemen responsible for the earlier restorations of Spartacus and Lawrence of Arabia. In addition to the restored visual clarity there is a newly recorded sound track in 6 track Dolby Stereo with split sur- rounds on 70 mm prints. The new 35 mm prints will contain three tracks of sound: Dolby SR, Dolby Stereo Digital and a synch track for the DTS digital format. On his recent visit to Toronto, Mickey Rooney remarked that Hollywood is now just a sign on the side of a hill. He's correct and we should be grateful for the restoration of mo- tion pictures such as My Fair Lady from Hollywood's golden years.

That's football. The NFL features high priced pieces of lard lumbering about a field afraid to move too fast or deliver a decent tackle lest they be injured.

TRAVEL NOTES When Ernie Byfield was the manager of the Algon- quin Hotel in New York Ci- ty, he inadvertently ap- proved an advertisement that read in part, "A refin- ed gentleman of The South and his family will find all the usual hooey and what- sis at The Algonquin." It was printed, caught the eye of a travelling public and Mr. Byfield continued to rum it for years. We rather like an adver- tisement seen recently in Travel in Taiwan, a magazine we study gratefully each month. It's for The Viscount Taipei at No. 1, Ychiang in Taipei. It reads simply, "A nice Intel for nice people." Mr. Byfield would have approved. COMMENT Now that municipal by laws are being passed all over the place, look for amendments in property policies excluding coverage where there are no fire alarms.

It Ltrave!lj Black Creek's Corn Is Tasty Treat For Visitors Gardens are bursting and the corn stands high in the fields. Cooked in its husk over the barbecue or just boiled on the stove, corn is a late -summer treat that melts its way into the hearts of young and old. It just wouldn't be summer without it. Every weekend -from mid-August through September, visitors to Black Creek can savour this traditional marker of late summer. So roll up your sleeves and bite into freshly picked sweet corn crooked in the husk right before your eyes. This versatile grain, native only to the Americas, bewildered and amazed Europeans at first. Today, we think nothing of holding it in our hands. But as Harriet Martineau, an English visitor to Massachusetts in 1835 said, lute greatest drawback is the way in which it is necessary to at it... It looks awkward enough. but what is to be done? Sur- rendering such a vegetable from the considerations of grace is not to be thought of." Settlers quickly over- came these considerations of politesse when they discovered the amazing number of purposes corn served. For Native Peoples, who introduced settlers to its many uses, it was their main crop. They ate it in bread, soup. pud- ding. roasted, mixed with other foods and used it as barter for other goods. Catherine Parr Traill, in her book "The Canadian Settler's Guide" published in 1856. wrote "...there is not a more valuable grain. or one more various and valuable in its uses to man. than Indian cam. " In Upper Canada. the Loyalists planted little fields of corn almost as soon as they arrived. The most common use It served was to feed their livestock. especially the turkeys, geese and ducks that were to grace Christmas tables. Corn made an excellent fodder as it fattened the animals so quickly. Corn was turned into flour or maize for cooking by drying the kernels either on or off the cob and then ground. Bread made from maize has long been a staple of Native Americans. But it had many other uses, too. Corn husks were used to make brooms, stuff horse collars, mattresses and furniture. Mats were made by braiding the sheaths in- to thick ropes and then sew- ing them together. Even the cobs were used. They made excellent corks for bottles, and when burnt slowly in the smoke -house, gave a superb flavour to the hams and bacon curing there. Ashes from corn cobs were used for baking gingerbread and other cakes. Corn harvesting gave settlers a ready opportumi- ty for a party or bee. After each harvest, neighbours gathered to husk the corn. This was a time for singing, dancing, games and romantic adventures. A girl who found a red ear of cam earned the right to de- mand a kiss from the young man of her choice. Don't miss Black Creek's own corn celebration. Br- ing your sweetheart to Black C4,eek for an old- fashioned corn roast, or en- joy this late summer treat with your whole family, every weekend from mid- August to late September, or as long as supplies last. Come to Black Creek and sink your teeth into freshly picked sweet corn cooked in its husks for greater flavour. There's even but- ter and salt on hand. Black Creek is located at Jane St. and Steeles Ave. in north-west Toronto, 10 minutes north of Hwy. 401. Free parking. For more in- formation, call (416) 736-1733. Harvest Home Event Sept. 11 Ontario's bountiful harvest is the theme of this year's Harvest Home event scheduled for Sun. Sept. 11. at the Ontario Agricultural Museum.

Figures released on Aug. 2nd by the Canadian Automobile Association ( CAA) show that there were higher costs in almost every category, including maintenance, fuel, in- surance and depreciation costs. Assuming that 24,000 kms. are driven per year, each km. costs 30.8 cents, up from 29.3 cents last year. The CAA Car Costs 1994 - 1995 data is based on a 1994 Chevrolet Cavalier RS with a 2.2 litre, 4 cylinder engine which is driven 24,00o kms. a year. A four -door sedan, the Cavalier is equipped with an automatic transmission, power steer- ing, power disc brakes.

But just a short distance away, the cool breezes are waf- ting gently through the shade trees and through the 19th century shops and homes of Black Creek Pioneer Village. Come for a visit, and you'll discover some of the ways the early CMOF SCARBOROUGH MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS 1994 NOVEMBER 14TH CLERK'S NOTICE OF FIRST POSTING OF PRELIMINARY LIST Notice is hereby given that in compliance with Section 27 of the MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS ACT, I posted in my office on the 6th day of September, 1994 at 150 Borough Drive and in at least two other conspicious public places in the municipality, the list of all persons entitled to vote in the municipality at the municipal election, and that such list will remain there for inspection.

WESTWATER DATED this CITY CLERK AND 7th day of RETURNING OFFICER September, 1994 150 Borough Drive 396-7285 •SCARBOROGGH Ontario settlers beat the heat. One of the most visible differences between surn- mers in the last century and today is the clothing. Victorians had definite ideas of what was proper, and showing skin did not qualify. They preferred to be thoroughly covered. Not a halter top, not a pair of shorts, not even a pair of sandals was anywhere to be seen - But they dial not die of the heat. Their clothing was lighweight, lightly coloured and made of natural fibres like cotton and linen, which are much cooler than to- day's modern synthetics. Some of the fashionable elements of their clothing like straw hats, sum bon- nets, hooped skirts, fans and parasols kept the direct sunlight off their bodies and allowed for lots of cooling air to circulate. The construction of their buildings was often more conducive to summer com- fort. Built with thick walls and small windows, many homes in the 1860s were cooler in summer than some buildings constructed today. Without air- conditioning, many of our modern, low-ceilinged and poorly insulated buildings become ovens in the mid- day sun. The natural landscape, too, helped the settlers beat the heat. Today's concrete sidewalks and asphalt can get as hot as an oven. The dirt roads of the last cen- tury were lighter coloured than our black -tops, so they didn't radiate heat in waves as we see on our modern roadways. Sidewalks long ago like Black Creek's wooden boardwalks were lined with tall shade trees and bushes to generate cooling breezes. Finally, the slower, more gentle pace of life made the summer season more en- joyable. tomes had deep, shaded verandas surround- ed by vines and flower gardens, much like those you see at Black Creek to- day. They provide the perfect spot for socializing with neighbours and passer's -by - And, on a lazy afternoon. a picnic with games of cro- quet and delicious summer drinks were always a possibility. Some drinks. like lemonade and ginger beer, are still popular to- day. Others, like "shrub", made with fruit ]wces and rum, have been all but forgotten. Beat this oodern city heat, and escape to a languid 19th century stow mer day at Black Creek. Delight in Black Creek's lush summer gardens. You can try your hand at a gew tie game of croquet on the Village Green or just sit back and sip on a cod drink. At Black Creek you'll discover how Vic- torians cooled off before the days of air- conditioning. Black Creek is located at Jane St. and Steeles Ave. in north-west Toronto, just lO minutes north of Hwy. 401. Free parking. For more in- formation, call (416) 736-1733.
