Finance linister Michel 'Audet may be the onlj^fie able to afford new shoes this week after the fledgling finance minister released a budget that included timid tax breaks for a small number of Quebecers.Thursday’s provincial budget focused mainly on health care and education spending, fulfilling Premier Jean Charest’s promise that his new finance minister would deliver a budget built on Liberal election promises.But the budget failed to meet the high expectations of Quebecers who were promised major tax relief.During the election campaign, Charest promised tax cuts of $1 billion over five years.Quebecers will have to wait a little longer to see the colour of that money.After tossing a bone to middle-class families in the last budget returning about $1 billion to their pockets, Audet handed over a tax break to workers in this one.As of January 2006, all Quebecers who hold a job will be eligible for a new $500 tax break.Some 3.1 million employees and 162,000 self-employed workers will profit from the measure that will cost the government $300 million.Please see budget Page 3 WEB PHOTO Quebec Finance Minister Michel Audet said the tax cuts will bring Quebecers closer to the Canadian average.utdoor Ï|§fa8si|i S» ¦» •> im c- I V> » St.Francis Valley mayors delay dump decision By Stephen McDougall Special to The Record The 18 mayors in the St.Francis Valley municipal regional council have opted to delay any decision about a controversial garbage dump expansion project until after the provin- cial municipal elections scheduled for November.Valcourt mayor and MRC prefect Denis Allaire said the decision to delay was made because many of the mayors still do not know what their residents think about the project.Please see dump Page 5 PERRY BEATON/SPECIAL Students

foul.Roderick Fraser’s payout of $740,000 over two years begins in July, the same month the outgoing president of the University of Alberta celebrates his 65th birthday.After 10 years at the helm, Fraser is retiring, and his transition will be softened by the receipt of his full presidential salary while on two years’ administrative leave.Meanwhile, McGill’s Janyne Hodder is collecting paycheques from two Quebec universities this year thanks to generous end-of-term provisions that are now common in the contracts of many senior administrators.Hodder, who served as principal at Bishop’s University for nine years, ended her term in June, 2004.Four months later, Hodder took up a vice-presidential post at McGill, with an annual salary of $170,000.She will continue to be paid her $150,000 presidential salary from Bishop’s until her 16.8-month payout in lieu of an administrative leave runs out in the fall.The deal for University of British Columbia’s Martha Piper is even sweeter.A one-year leave for every five years of service as president is considered an “automatic entitlement” at UBC.But Piper will keep her presidential salary for a full two years - worth $700,000 - even though she’s announced her intention to leave the university a year shy of her 10th anniversary in the post.Administrative leaves, informally referred to as sabbaticals, were conceived as a way to help academics ease back into the professorate and kick-start their research after serving as an administrator.* But in many cases, they are turning into no-strings-attached leaves for highly paid presidents heading into retirement or using the opportunity to land other jobs.Some professors are saying these deals with presidents are excessively generous for cash-strapped universities where professors struggle to win inflationary salary increases and improve student-faculty ratios.FILE PHOTO ¦ .vi bSL Janyne Hodder got golden handshake.“It’s become an issue because they’re making so much now, and many are not returning to the university,” said Jim Turk, spokesman for the Canadian Association of University Teachers.Until recent years, university presidents didn’t make much more than long-time professors.That changed when institutions began to be run more like corporations, says Turk.Many presidents found themselves making corporate-level salaries exceeding $300,000 and enjoying generous bonus provisions if they proved to be effective fundraisers.In their defence, universities say golden handshakes for presidents are part of the new marketplace.“In the main, it’s part of remaining competitive in the marketplace to attract top talent to these roles,” said Lisa Castle, UBC’s associate vice-president of human resources.Carleton University’s Richard Van Loon took a slightly different tack in defending his generous upcoming payout, which was made public earlier this month.Van Loon, who turns 65 in October, negotiated a 22-month administrative leave worth $550,000 after he steps down as president in June after nine years at the helm.By the time the leave ends, Van Loon will be well beyond Car- leton’s age of mandatory retirement for faculty.But he defended the deal, saying administrative leaves are now a routine part of employment contracts for university presidents, citing similar arrangements at Queen’s University, McMaster University and the University of Waterloo, all in Ontario.He also said two other senior administrators at Carleton eased into retirement in a similar fashion.Turk says this is precisely the problem.All professors have the chance to apply for one-year research or study leaves, usually every seven years and at partial pay.But they also have to produce a research plan to justify the sabbatical and, in many cases, return to the university for at least the duration of the leave or return the cash.But the same rules don’t apply to pro-fessors-turned-presidents, said Turk.“They shouldn’t be punished for being an administrator.They should retain the right to sabbaticals, provided they meet the same requirements as everybody else.If their term is up, maybe they should be paid the equivalent of their professorial salary, be expected to do the equivalent of sabbatical or scholarly work, and be expected to return to the university after," he said.But there are no such stipulations for presidents like Van Loon, Fraser or Piper, who can take their leaves as a de facto retirement bonus or an opportunity to move on and double dip.But despite talk of a new norm, not all highly ranked universities are offering golden handshakes to their outgoing senior executives in the twilight of their careers with no strings attached.The president and other senior administrators at the University of Guelph can apply for a one-year academic transition leave for every five years of service.But they first have to outline a plan to reestablish their research and teaching portfolio to ease the transition back to the professorate.Can West News with a file from Pauline Tam, Ottawa Citizen PIP YOU LEAVE MONEY UNPER NICHOLAS'S PILLOW TONIGHT?Ben by Daniel Shelton .I PI PUT FORGET THIS TIME.[iT Op, I LEFT

an increase of 3.6 per cent.While there is a zero deficit for this year, he predicted an $800 I To reserve, contact your travel agent or visit www.airsherbrooke.com million shortfall for 2006-2007.Health care spending will rise by 4.1 per cent or about $826 million.That will include some $1.2 billion in new infrastructure spending, including money for an expansion at the Center Hospitalier universitaire de Sherbrooke as well as other hospitals, government-run nursing homes, as well as radio-oncology equipment to treat cancer.In Montreal alone, the government will spend $2.5 billion to build two new medical centres for McGill and the University of Montreal.“In the last election campaign, we promised to make health our priority, and we did that.Today we can be proud of having reorganized services and reversed the under-investment trend of previous years by reinvesting $3 billion since taking office,” said Audet, noting the budget injects $826 million to improve direct services to the population.As of July 2005, medication will be completely free for seniors 65 or older who receive the maximum guaranteed income supplement.The budget also provides tax breaks for caregivers taking care of disabled relatives.“Thanks to this reform, over 80,000 natural caregivers and people with a physical or mental impairment will receive additional assistance of $43 million,” he declared.The other main priority of the Liberal government is education, said Audet noting that education spending will rise 2.7 per cent, or some $321 million.The government is doubling the budget for a homework assistance Departure: 7 a.m.- Return: 7 p.m.cMrSherbrooke Operated by StarUnk Aviation Read The Record Daily NOTICE TO ALL THE PATIENTS OF DR.MARIO SOULARD Please be advised as of May 1st, 2005, Dr.Soulard will be receiving his patients at The East Angus Medical Clinic, situated at 150 Angus South, East Angus.832-2438 Fly Taranto Direct AVOID THE BRIDGE Sherbrooke Toronto Monday thru Friday Friday, April 22, 2005 page 3 program in place in 1,800 of Quebec’s 2,000 schools, encourage reading in schools and introduce English second language instruction in September 2006.The government is also promising to create some 200,00 more subsidized day-care spots by March 2006.The finance minister also announced an investment of $145 million for the construction of 2,600 new low-cost housing units under the AccèsLogis program for low-income households.In addition, an extra $15 million will be invested to renovate existing social housing.In transport, spending is up 9.2 per cent as the government promises to spend $1.2 billion in 2005-2006 and some $1.4 billion in 2006-2007 on Quebec’s crumbling roads.Spending on municipal and regional development is also up 8.4 per cent as the government vows to spend some $349 million on water mains and sewage treatment and some $216 million in other projects.Another budget getting a boost is natural resources as the government promises $25 million more for forestry management to follow up on the Coulombe Commission report on Quebec’s forests.Dennis dezos CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT Corporation and Personal Tax Accounting and Payroll Services Business and Tax Consulting 175 Queen, Suite 204 Lennoxville Tel.: 819-823-0800 | CM "Shoulder to Shoulder" Benefit for "The Hut" To help raise funds for Government required up-grades necessary to bring "The Hut" up to codel April 23rd, 2005 MÉCHOUI by Peny Hodge SALADS fit DESSERTS by George Beaulieu 6:00 -

one of many honoured By Brion Robinson Sherbrooke Emily Von-Berg has been volunteering at the Sherbrooke Geriatric University Institute for most of her adult life.For over 35 years, she has devoted much of her free time to helping seniors at residences for long term care.“I help them out as much as I can,” she said during a telephone interview from her home in Lennoxville.Von-Berg works at the coffee shop in the Argyll Pavilion, one of four pavilions included in the institute.The pavilion has about 150 residents.“They come by to get a coffee or just have a chat," she said.This is just one ofVon-Berg’s duties over her many years of service.One of her earlier volunteering duties was picking up items for English-speaking women who came to town to deliver their babies.“They were in such a rush and usually forgot what they needed,” she said.Von-Berg lived close to downtown and would pick up things like toothbrushes and candy bars.“I would just pick up little things like that while they were recuperating,” she said, adding she often took the time to chat with people around the hospital.Von-Berg said she always liked being around people and wanted to fill her empty time by helping others.She never married.“1 was totally alone with time on my hands and I like helping others,” she said.Over the next three and a half decades Von-Berg visited residents at the Institute a few times every week just to chat or lend a helping hand.Now a retired factory worker, she has cut down her visits to about once a week but she still continues her dedicated service to helping others.“If there’s anything I can do, I do it,” she said.Volunteers with over five years service like Von-Berg were “[honoured Wednesday night by the institute.“It’s pretty wonderful,” she said.“I was shocked and surprised.” There are about 400 volunteers who help the 800 patients at the long term care facilities.“Their contribu- JPHisss*'- AAago: Moving FABRICS Sewing & decoration services in-store or at

talk with their taxpayers,” he said Wednesday evening after the MRC meeting.“We intend to form a committee to further study the project and some of us want an environmental impact study done.I cannot speak for the other mayors, but I will not support this project without such a study.” Allaire estimated up to half the council is opposed to the project and the other half in favour.But when asked who was for and who was against, Allaire said, “you’d better ask them yourself.” The project calls for an expansion of the present MRC dump located near the border of Melbourne Township and St.Francois-Xavier to three times its present size.The new dump would be lined with a strong rubber membrane and be able to handle 45,000 tonnes of garbage.The cost to taxpayers would be between $15 million and $20 million over the next 25 years.Critics charge the expansion only encourages more dumping of garbage, especially since the dump could be used to accept waste from other township areas and MRC territories.Allaire and other mayors have argued the revenue generated from extra dumping would decrease the final tax bill for the St.Francis valley towns.The MRC was supposed to have voted on the project in January, but put it off, arguing the project’s opponents should be consulted and allowed to make their case to the public.Allaire said a report in The Record last month quoting him as saying the council would decide on the project at its April meeting was not accurate.“I was misquoted,” he said, before proceeding with another interview with The Record.But Jean-Claude Boutin, a member of a citizen’s group proposing alternative solutions to the area’s garbage problems, suspects the MRC mayors fear they could run into trouble politically if they make a decision now.“If the project proves unpopular with residents, they could have trouble getting reelected in November,” said the Brompton Lake resident.“The mayors are being very careful about this.” Daniel Morin, another member of the citizens’ group, argues the MRC is putting an expensive band aid on the area’s garbage problem given the shrinking number of dumps in the province.“We are advocating that our area do more to reduce garbage at its source in the stores and the factories, and recycle and compost more waste,” he said.“All they are doing by increasing the size of the dump is passing the buck from one area of the province to another.I don’t think a lot of residents want to see the St.Francis Valley used as a large dumping ground.” |r-|-^he company that owns the Terrasse 1 Greque in Cowansville is getting a A.closer look from the tax man.Three warrants have been executed against 9100-2857 Quebec, Inc.Revenu Québec says the company, which operates restaurants in Montreal and Cowansville, failed to pay $271,880.70 in Provincial Sales Tax between April 15, 2001 and Sept.30, 2003.It did so by submitting false tax declarations for much less than it collected, the government department said in a news release.If convicted in court, the company Friday, April 22, 2005 page 5 will have to pay back the outstanding amount along with a fine, which could vary from 125 per cent to 200 per cent of the amount owed.Revenu Quebec is also investigating the same company to see if anything similar happened with the federal Goods and Services Tax.In that case, fines could range from 50 per cent to 200 per cent of the amount owing.Also under investigation is the role of the company’s top administrator in the tax fraud.She could face the same fines as the company she runs.Correction A couple of errors
