[" Two downtown residences to merge in new facility By PETER BLACK {55 BED senior citizens\u2019 residence is being discussed for a si at the east end of Hillside avenue now occupied by the Westmount Public Security Unit.THE EXAMINER has learned the facility would involve the consolidation of two existing senior citizens\u2019 homes into one building to be financed by the provincial ministry of social affairs.St Margaret's Home, now located at 51 Sherbrooke street at Clark street downtown, and the Good Shepherd residence, at 2230 St Antoine street, are to be amalgamated into the facility, which could open its doors as early as spring 1988.The project would necessitate the transplanting of the security unit from the quarters it has occupied since its inception six years ago.Letters found left in street Fifteen letters were found Monday morning last week at Cote St Antoine road and Murray avenue, according to police incident reports.Details concerning how the mail came to be on the street were not recorded.Post office personnel were called to pick up the mail shortly after its recovery at 10 am.Lost dog A dog which followed a woman home on Grosvenor avenue Saturday remained unclaimed Monday at the SPCA, public safety officers report.The black long-haired dog was described as a terrier-type.It wore no identification tags.Beyond Westmount's Borders .16 Building permits .15

the property to the ministry of social affairs, which would completely fund the project under its senior citizens\u2019 housing administration.According to a city official, the deal could be closed within a month.At the same time, the city hopes to include in the funding package from the ministry an allocation to permit the construction of a 20-unit apartment building to complete the Hillside Place public housing project which occupies most of the remainder of the south side of the street.According to their administrators, the two senior citizens\u2019 residences are to be consolidated because at present they are located in historic buildings which cannot offer the conveniences of a new structure.A.J.Eisenring, administrator of St Margaret's Home, said the present building is \u201cvery old and not adequate for our needs,\u201d as many residents, about half of them West- mounters, require \u201cfairly heavy care.\u201d Joe Mel, interim executive director of the Good Shepherd Residence, where 30 of the facility's 35 beds are now occupied, said a consolidated Continued on page six \u201cOur horoscopes are perfect .I'ma Sagittarius and he's single.\u201d Bright and

land on a boulevard strip of Surrey Gardens for another five years until Nov 14, 1991 for the maintenance of its national defence siren.An attack warning siren was first installed north of Devon avenue approximately 25 years ago.Another warning siren in Westmount is onthe roof of the YMCA building.Making all of Westmount your home Westmount PQ, H3Z 2Y8, Thursday, November 27, 1986 35¢ Engineering report says: Roof to be removed from burnt-out tower By LAUREEN SWEENEY An engineering report on last month's fire damage to the east tower of the Alexis Nihon Plaza recommends the removal of at least the roof before winter, city officials said last week.The report, prepared by the firm of Lavalin Ine, was received by Alexis Nihon officials Tuesday last week, according to Bruno Di T.enar- do, Westmount's director of services.\u201cThe roof will definitely come off and they are looking at the possible removal of the three top floors or more depending on the economical feasibility,\u201d he said.Work has been under way since the fire a month ago yesterday to brace parts of the structure and weld some of the severed steel beams.The roof of the 15-storey highrise has been deemed unsafe to support the weight of snow, Mr Di Lenardo said.Although he had not actually seen the report, it had been discussed with him, he said, and he was \"very happy with the performance of Alexis Nihon officials.\u201d \u201cThey are now going out to tender to find out how much different repairs would cost.\u201cAt least we know the new building will be sprinklered,\u201d he added.Highrise buildings have had to have sprinkler systems since 1975 under City of Montreal by-laws passed after the construction of the burnt-out building 20 years ago.Overall damage to the building and contents has been estimated by fire officials at $222 million.Poll of delegates reveals: Turner has lukewarm support of locals heading to Ottawa Liberal leader John Turner may have the public support of St Henri- Westmount MP Donald Johnston (see story last week), but that is not to say he enjoys the full support of Mr Johnston's riding association delegates as they arrive at the national Liberal Party policy convention, opening today in Ottawa.If results of the St Henri-West- mount poll serve as a microcosm of Mr Turner's support with some 3,500 By THOR VALDMANIS convention delegates from across the country, then the party leader appears destined for a modest endorsement from the party\u2019s rank and file, despite recent unflattering polls comparing his current popularity with that of former Liberal cabinet minister Jean Chrétien.Although none of the Westmount .delegates openly criticized Mr Turn- - Only the southwest corner of the building at 1500 Atwater avenue lies in Westmount territory, amounting to about seven percent of the area and accounting for an estimated $16 million in fire damage to West- mount.The fire, which was reported to have started on the 10th floor, gutted the south sections of the 10th, 11th and 12th storeys as well as the complete top storey, numberëd 16 in the absence of a 13th floor.The roof was buckled and sagged some two feet in places as steel and other supports gave way under the intense heat of the fire, which burned out of control some 12 hours.Damage to the 14th and 15th storeys was limited to smoke and water after the fire was confined to one stairwell on those levels.Scuffle ends rent hearing A melee broke out on the 15th floor of the Palais de Justice Tuesday evening in the aftermath of a rental board hearing involving representatives of the owner of Château Maisonneuve, 4998 de Maisonneuve boulevard west, and its tenants.The incident sent one man to hospital.He claimed to have been punched in the

THE MUCPD The most visible aspect of the presence of the Montreal Urban Community Police Department is the patrol car which drives through our streets for the purpose of preventing and curbing crime.That, of course, is just : one of the services rendered to our locality by the Police Department.Be that as it may, the patrolmen remain the most important element of those services.In addition to responding to calls, each day they must patrol the streets of the municipality, according to a definite plan and to criminal trends.To complement the patrols\u2019 work, investigators work at solving the crimes which are committed.These investigators can count on the assist ance of the specialized services of the BR Identification Section (fingerprinting, inspection at the scene of the crime, photographs, ete ©), the Electronic Surveillance Section (wiretapping), the Physical Surveillance Section (tailing teams used to tail individuals suspected of committing criminal offences), or of any other resource available for investigation purposes.The officers assigned to the District 23 Police Youth unit are specifically charged with the prevention of crime by adolescents.They meet young people in schools, parks, amusement places; they give them advice, direct them to the services they need and, occasionally, carry out investigations of offences committed by the young or look for missing children.The public relations officer is another important member of the District 23 team.His assignment is to promote good relations with the community.He is the interface between the police and the citizens involved in the \u201cNeighbourhood Watch\u201d program, he gives crime prevention advice to residents in multiple-dwelling buildings, he sees to it that businesses take part in the programs designed to identify their merchandise in order to prevent theft, he meets with shopkeepers to help them better protect themselves against fraud and robbery and also, on request, performs safety inspections of residences and commercial establishments.Finally, District 21 also assigns two (2) officers to supervise the issuing of permits in businesses and establishments serving alcoholic beverages.In addition to the above services which are readily available, District 23 can also call upon many other specialized units according to the character of the events which are drawn to its attention, such as, for instance, special investigators in the case of homicide, fraud, criminal fires, stolen car and drug networks, morals, organized crime, etc.As can be seen, there are countless forms of help available to thecitizens of this community and officers of District 23 are always available and ready to serve this community to which they are proud to belong.We are proud of them and with our Public Security Force the citizens of the City are given the best of both worlds as far as police protection and assistance are concerned.Next month I will describe in detail the responsibilities of our Public Security Force.CHRONIQUE DU MAIRE \u2014 NOVEMBRE 1986 LE DISTRICT POLICIER 23 DU SPCUM L'aspect le plus représentatif du Service de Police de la Communauté urbaine de Mont réal est la voiture de patrouille qui parcourt les rues et dont la mission est la prévention et la répression de la criminalité.Ce n\u2019est là, évidemment.qu\u2019un des services offerts à la communauté par le Service de Police.Les patrouilleurs constituent néanmoins l'élement le plus important.En plus de répondre aux appels, ils doivent patrouiller les rues de la municipalité, selon un plan clairement établi, à chaque jour, selon l'évolution de la criminalité.En complément à la patrouille, les enquêteurs sont chargés d'élucider les crimes commis.Pour les assister, les enquêteurs pourront requérir les services spécialisés de la Section Identification (relevé des empreintes digitales, examen de scènes de crime, photographies, etc.), de la Section Surveillance Électronique (lignes d'écoute), de la Surveillance Physique (équipes de filature utilisées à suivre une personne soupçonnée de commettre des délits criminels), ou de toute autre ressource disponible en matière d'enquête.Les agents affectés à l'unité Police-Jeunesse du District 23 sont responsables spécifiquement de la prévention auprès des jeunes.Ils les rencontrent dans les écoles, les parcs, les lieux d\u2019'amusement; ils les conseillent, les orientent vers les services dont ils ont besoin et, occasionnellement, effectuent l'enquête de délits qu'ils ont commis ou recherchent les enfants disparus.Le policier relationniste est un autre membre important de l'équipe du Poste 23.Il a comme rôle de maintenir de bonnes relations avec la communauté.C'est lui qui maintient la liaison avec les citoyens impliqués dans le réseau de \u2018\u2018Surveil- \u2018 + » A + ' EP TEE ESL UT Sete PE », aa AR a SPAS TT eee LA = lance de Quartier)\u2019 il donne des conseils de prévention aux résidents

commerçants afin qu'ils se protègent mieux contre la fraude et le vol et il effectue également, sur demande, des inspections sécuritaires de résidences et de commerces.Finalement le District 23 affecte également deux (2) agents à la surveillance de l'émission des permis dans les commerces et les établissements servant des boissons alcooli- ues.a En plus de ces services qui sont immédiatement disponibles, le District 23 peut aussi faire appel à de nombreuses autres unités spécialisées selon la nature des événements qui lui sont signalés.Ce sont, par exemple, les enquêteurs spécialisés en matière d\u2019homicide, de fraudes, d'incendies criminels, de réseaux d'autos volées, de stupéfiants, de mortalité, de crime organisé, etc.Il y a donc d'innombrables ressources disponibles aux citoyens de cette municipalité et les agents du District 23 sont toujours disponibles et prêts à servir cette communauté à laquelle ils sont fiers d'appartenir.Nous sommes fiers de ces policiers; grâce à eux et à notre Corps de sécurité publique, les résidants de cette ville reçoivent les meilleurs services qui soit en ce qui a trait à la protection et à l'assistance policières.Le mois prochain, je décrirai en détail les responsabilités de notre Corps de sécurité publique.WESTMOUNT MAYOR'S COMMENTS ON THE BUDGET - 1987 - CAPITAL EXPENDITURE PROGRAM 1987/1988/1989 The purpose of my report tonight is to inform the citizens of Westmount of the financial position of this municipality, with particular reference to the years 1985, 1986 and the budget year 1987 In this presentation | will report on the financial results of the audited statements for 1985.| will also give you some preliminary indications of the financial results for the current year (1986) and the general orientation for the 1987 budget and the capital expenditure program.I.HIGHLIGHTS OF THE 1985 FINANCIAL RESULTS The Financial Statements for the year ended 31st December 1985 were tabled with Council by the City Treasurer as required by the provisions of the Cities and Towns Act.These statements, audited by the City\u2019s auditors, Thorne, Ernst & Whinney, were issued \u2018unqualified\u2019 on 21st March 1986.The highlights of the results for the year 1985 with some explanations of the major variations between the actual results and budget were presented in detail by the Commissioner of Finances on 7th Aprii 1986.However, a summary of the highlights is as follows: The City's total revenue for the year amounted to $32,964,764 and the expenditures totaled $31,815,793, leaving us with a surplus of $1,148,971.Looking at the revenue elements of the statements, the major variation from budget was in municipal taxes.Reductions and refunds of municipal taxes for 1985 and prior years amounted to $786,600.Fortunately, other revenues exceeded budget and did offset the large loss in tax revenues.Additional revenues came from parking meters, building permits, transfer duties, amusement tax and interest on short- term investments.In all, net revenues exceeded the budget by $277,364.On the expenditure side, costs for financing an improved pension plan for our firefighters amounted to $200,000 and interest for tax refunds exceeded budget by $218,800 due to tax adjustments for prior years.These expenditures were offset by favourable variances for Public Security Operations ($125,000), credits received by the City of Montreal for water ($227,100); a favorable winter contributed to reduced snow removal and disposal costs ($209,000); Parks & Recreation ($165,700) and reduced Capital Expenditures ($250,000).Looking at the Balance Sheet, cash and short-term investments amounted to $3,500,000 at 31st December 1985.Outstanding receivables amounted to $1,057,900 against accounts payable of $4,606,300.Our surplus amounted to $3,354,028 at 31st December 1985.As pointed out during the presentation of the 1986 budget, an amount of $700,000 was appropriated to balance the 1986 budget and an additional $267.000 to pay off the first installment of the firemen's sick bank.As a result, the accumulated surplus will decline to $2.387.028 The capital expenditures, including those for the electric utility, amounted to $2,185,000 in 1985.Of this amount, $985,000 was financed through loan by-laws, $1,075,700 through the working fund and $151,300 was charged to the operating budget.Everything considered.the City was, and still is, in a sound financial position as indicated by the level of the cash and short-term investments, the status of our accounts receivable and by all pertinent ratios of our long-term debt to valuation, to revenue and per capita.Il.1986 FORECAST Based on results obtained to date and on estimates for the balance of the year, we expect that the year 1986 should close with a surplus in excess of $1,600,000.Taxes and compensation are estimated to be about $650,000 above budget due mainly to new construction.Transfer duties are expected to exceed the budget by over $160,000, due to the higher activity and selling price in the real estate market.Interest on short-term investments and overdue taxes will exceed budget by approximately $80,000.The net revenue from the electric utility operations is also expected to be higher than budget, due to higher sales of electricity and the postponement of their debt issue.In the early part of 1986, Westmount received from the Québec government $97,029 for damages caused by the 1983 ice storm and $683,834 for the Selby St.expropriation.These items will account for $780,863 of our anticipated 1986 surplus.Ill.THE 1987 BUDGET For the next fiscal year 1987, the municipal operating budget guidelines Continued on page 12

on snow THE reorganization of the City of West- mount administration at the top already is showing effects beneficial to the citizens and the responsible officials are to be congratulated.Last weekend's major snowstorm apparently caught the City of Montreal public works department unprepared.Here in Westmount, reports from citizens and our own observations show that our streets were tackled vigorously from the outset.It clearly was going to be a major operation and our crews stayed on top of the situation through the weekend.By Monday morning Westmount presented an image of a good cleanup well done, in sharp contrast to many areas of adjoining Montreal.Overthe last two or three years Westmount's once-envied standards of snow removal declined.Last winter they hit bottom with conditions on even main arteries abominable for days after even moderate snowfalls, particularly for pedestrians and specially when trying to negotiate intersections.sive.Obviously the work was spun out and appeared to arise from a combination of budget-squeezing and inappropriate labor contract provisions.Mixed in was some palpable indifference along the chain of responsibility.Whatever the reasons now, the effect where it matters is vastly different.Under the new city engineer, Mr Federico Caluori, there seems to be a renewed spirit of pride and purpose throughout the public works department, of which he now also has the title of director.No area of local government contributes more to the physical comfort of those who live and work in an ty and Mr Caluori is to be commended by the way in which he is providing leadership to a loyal, hard-working staff.The foremen, technicians, drivers and laborers who serve us all are not often fully appreciated.We are glad that they have given us the opportunity.with this first-of-season snow performance, to express a \"Well done!\u201d for the many difficult and often You Say I am the very model of a leader presidential .Oran Talon fhtoidet f Le, spac Ezemten 2C Il amthe very model of a leader presidentiai I deal with problems right up front and others confidential.In matters foreign or domestic or simply tangential My practice is to handle them by methods quite prudential.My word's my bond, I treat the truth in manner reverential I'm honest with my allied friends but never deferential.Not one of them I'd ever shaft except if it\u2019s essential And when I must I know they trust me to be penitential.I criticize vigorously all governments tyrannical Whether Libyan or Syrian or of course Iran-ical fod es to trade with regimes charlatanical Se \u2018t with my great mission messianical \u2014 all regimes corrupt, evil, satanical \u2018acies with outlooks puritanical oo .n ensure an influence organical Controlling their resources whether min'ral or botanical.Some issues may be ugly but my smile is so cosmetical I just reveal my gleaming teeth in manner frank and ethical.The public's sure to go along in a stupor apathetical So if I take a backward step it still comes out prophetical.And if the truth's flung in my teeth by some critics heretical A cosy talk on the boob tube creates a mood poetical unpleasant tasks they perform throughout the year.We could never get a clearcut explanation from city hall, which was largely defen- Editorial Notes AS suggested in our main editorial last week, it is not easy for the City of Westmount to evade concern in issues which at first glance or by its own claim are not within its jurisdiction.Another one which came to roost in the council chamber a week ago Monday was the proposed provincial legislation to take the ban off conversion of apartment houses to condominiums.This witch's brew does.of course.affect Westmount hugely.if only because some 56 percent of our homes are multiple-dwelling units.There would be many sad and distressfu!

WE SHOULD MOVE \u2026 LIKE AFRICA SOMEFLACE WARM Hon.Donald J.Johnston says.NATO resolution invalid ONE OF THE resolutions to be debated at the Liberal Party policy convention this week in Ottawa calls for Canada's withdrawal from NATO provided a Warsaw Pact country,of equal power does the same.If our government were to adopt such a resolution, Canada would have to decide whether \u201cequal power\" refers to military, financial or political power, then find a Warsaw Pact nation everyone could agree is \u201cequal\u201d to Canada in this regard, and then see whether the chosen country is able and willing to withdraw from the Warsaw Pact in concert with Canada's withdrawal from NATO.Each of these steps is so unlikely to succeed that, in reality, the adoption of such a policy by Canada is unlikely to change the status quo at all.The authors of the resolution must believe that dismantling alliances on both sides of the Iron Curtain will somehow further the peace-making process.I doubt the validity of that thesis.First of all, one of Canada\u2019s original reasons for joining NATO was to make its own defence expenditures less burdensome by participating in the collective security of this alliance.Abandonment of NATO would significantly increase the amount Canada would have to invest in its own defence.I do not see how this eventuality, taken at face value, could enhance the prospects for peace.The drafters of the resolution may also forget that NATO has objectives which go beyond a purely military alliance.As detailed in a section of the agreement referred to as the Canadian Article because it was inspired by Lester Pearson, NATO undertakes to promote activities to strengthen allied cohesiveness by reinforcing a sense of common interests and shared values.Perhaps our collective interests would be well served by Canada taking the lead in refocussing the attention of NATO members on the non-military aspects of the alliance.This can only be accomplished from within NATO.The resolution to be debated is no doubt well intentioned but it is difficult to see how Hon.Richard D.French French TV goes private ALTHOUGH THE English language media have (understandably) not been deeply interested in the question, there is a revolution brewing in the world of television in France.No less than three or four networks are going to be sold to new private sector consortia.In a country which until very recently had only three stations, all publicly owned, the privatization of some and the addition of other stations is no minor matter \u201cL'audiovisuel\u201d is the hot subject in Paris at the moment.Why should Quebec care\u201d It's simple.If the public monopoly on television in France is definitely broken, the resulting competitive pressures will provide significant opportunities for Quebec broadcasters and producers.For broadcasters, there is the possibility to participate as a shareholder in the newly granted French licences.Foreign participation is limited to 20 percent of equity, but since any one French enterprise is limited to 25 percent, this is not a major barrier.Quebec broadcasters have something very important besides cash to bring to the table; they have the expertise of successful private broadcasting in French.For producers, the increase in competition and the market orientation of the new French framework are also expected to open doors.The new stations will need programming and our producers have the relevant television production capacity.There will also be opportunities to reduce costs through France-Quebec co-production As you read this, I am in or have just returned from Europe, where I indicated to public and private decision-makers Quebec's strong interest in involving itself in the newly configured television industry.The primary players are of course the private sector leaders on both sides, but I have been persuaded that the minister can \u201copen doors.\u201d Let's hope so.the unwinding of NATO would carry anything other than negative consequences.ta ON SECOND THOUCHT: Li MAYBE IT\" O BA CARTOONISTS FOR AFRICA Today, Nov.27.cartoonists across North America

Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) for \u201ccourageous lifesaving actions\u2019 in rescuing a man from a burning car in April 1985.1985.Sergeant-Detective Jean Cousineau, 39, who was off-duty and driving home from Ottawa when the res; 5 took place, was presented wile Commissioner's Citation at anawards dinner held in Ottawa Nov 17.Asked how he felt about the commendation, he replied, \u201cAwkward.\u201cI was rewarded because I was a civilian, not because I was a cop.\u201d He said he had pulled many other accident victims from cars during mishaps on the Trans-Canada Highway when he started his police career in 1968 with the Pointe Claire Police Force.In 1980 the local detective was awarded a medal of bravery from the Bankers' Association of Canada for his part in a hostage taking at the Bank of Commerce branch at St Catherine and St Alexandre streets during which police \u201crushed the hostage.\u201d The new OPP citation states that the accident victim \u201cwas injured and only barely conscious.Without assistance he would not have escaped the fire.\u201d Ironically, said Sgt-Det Cousineau, the man later was charged with impaired driving.He was a resident of Plantagenet, Ontario.Car sped past Relating the incident, which occurred April 28, 1985, the detective said he and his wife and three children had been driving back to Montreal from Ottawa.As they neared Plantagenet about 9 pm on highway 17 a car suddenly sped by very close to their car, passing on the left.It continued in the left lane until confronted head on by an approaching car.\u201cTo avoid hitting it, the driver suddenly swerved and ran off the road into a deep ditch.The car kept on going up the other side of the ditch, through a cedar board fence until it hit a nice big maple tree.It burst into flame right away.\u201cIstopped, got out of my car, pried open the door of the burning car and dragged the man away.The fire was so close my eyebrows and hair were singed.\u201d Sgt-Det Jean Cousineau with OPP commissioner's citation.The citation adds that moments later \u201cthe car was totally destroyed by fire.\u201d Just as he had freed the victim.two OPP officers passed by going to a course and summoned additional help from the Hawkesbury detachment.Asked what his family felt during the incident, the detective replied, \u201cIt was a fairly funny situation, when the man was pulled past my wife, she recalled how close he had come to us on the highway and said, \u2018You fool.You could have killed us all!\u201d \u201d In retrospect, he said, it was \u201cnice to know\" someone in the OPP \u201ctakes the time to check all the accident reports.For me, what I did was nothing.I just went to the car\u201d One of the 12 other bravery awards made at the

market is expanding in Montreal: Wood developer Montrealers can look forward to the continued growth of the condominium market as more units become available in both the downtown core and in suburban areas, reflecting market trends in Toronto Radio, tools gone from home A tool box and a Walkman radio were reported stolen from a home broken into on Sherbrooke street near Prince Albert avenue

according to a key player in the West- mount condo trade.\u201cThe key market group in the future will be comprised of couples without children where both people are working.They will be looking for smaller downtown luxury units,\u201d says Larry Boland, vice-president of Rhomcorp Inc in an address yesterday to the Institute of Real Estate Management.Mr Boland described the condominium market in Montreal as being \u201cclose to take-off point.\u201d Cautioning that plans for one city cannot be based on what has succeeded in another, he did point to certain patterns which have emerged in Toronto and New York over the past five years, indicating that Montreal will likely follow suit.During 1986, one in four residential sales in Toronto has been in existing condominiums, with 2,700 new units sold and 1,200 more being pre- marketed in the downtown core.In the suburbs surrounding Toronto, 4,800 new condos have been sold this year; 2,500 are currently being marketed.In Manhattan, there are 11,000 condominiums now under develop- Excel gone A grey 1986 Hyundai Excel was reported stolen Monday night last week when its owner was attending a hockey game at The Forum, police said.The car

Toronto and New York, the level of condominium development is starting to expand and will continue to be strong in the coming years, Mr Boland said.\u201cMontreal has not yet seen the development of the smaller units which have been selling so well in Toronto but it will happen in the future.For now there is a strong demand for large units at moderate prices as well as for large luxury units,\u201d he said.As for the Number One Wood Avenue development, Mr Bland said that the market for such a project is limited.There will not be many Number One Wood Avenues in Montreal or in any city.But it was clear from the outset that, while small, the market does exist and the response has been overwhelming.He added the condominium expansion will reach the suburbs as well, where there is a demand being created by people who are either giving up a house or considering their first real estate investment before moving into a house.Ticketed A 28-year-old motorist was iss® a ticket for not

salaries of senior staff to the fire department, which operates the force.Westmount\u2019s unit, in addition to being self-sustaining, also includes more costly crime prevention and Neighborhood Watch programs.The Town report, which recommends maintaining the status quo of the patrol with certain modifica@ tions, was made public last week after preparation by a committee consisting of security personnel, MUC police and community interest groups.It named the \u201cWestmount formula\u201d as one of four alternatives available to the Town, which has a population of just under 20,000, comparable to that of Westmount.In Westmount, 20 patrollers are employed directly by the city at a yearly salary of about $30,000 compared with 10 patrollers earning some $15,000 in the Town, which contracts out the service.\u201cAlthough some advantages may be derived by the implementation of an organization such as Westmount has established for its Public Security Unit,\u201d the report states, \u2018\u2018the committee judged the overall expenditures (three times greater) prohibitive.\u201d MUC costs \u2018hefty\u2019 The committee felt that taxpayers would not accept such expenditures in addition to \u201chefty costs\u201d of MUC police services.These amount to more than $7 million in both West- mount and T.M.R.Other alternatives studied were abolition of public security, increased service and renewed or modified status quo.The committee did not favor increased powers for patrollers to include moving violations, saying this would involve the possible carrying of guns and arrest powers.The committee decided this would lead to another level of police being formed.\u201cRestructuration or decentralization of the present MUC police service would have to be foreseen as a consequence; this is certainly beyond our scope at the present time.\u201d The report, however, recommended that residents be made more aware of when to call MUC police and when to call public security and that calls be \u201cproperly received and channeled\u201d by dispatchers.The report noted that MUC police representatives \u2018stated categorically\u201d they could not provide all the services offered by the public security force to \u201cthe same degree\u201d in conjunction with their distinct role as peace officers.The report was inspired by citizen complaints tothe T.M.R.council that the patrol was not effective and could be improved.Woman reports dog was kicked A Westmount dog owner told] police Wednesday last week that a*%® man had kicked her dog in King George Park Tuesday last week for barking and threatened to kill it.Police said the woman, a nearby resident, claimed to have respected all the dog regulations.| Purse-loined Six purses were stolen from a showcase at the Old Post Office, 1304 Greene avenue, overnight Saturday- Sunday, police report.They were valued at $100 each.The lock on the case was forced open causing $30 damage.Eat 4 Brenda Norris TURNER.Continued from page one a youth delegate who refused comment, three delegates gave their tentative support to Mr Turner, while the remainder endorsed him categorically.All current St Henri-Westmount delegates have attended one or more Liberal conventions in the past.Mrs Johnston, whose husband finished third to Mr Turner in the 1984 leadership race, said she will be concentrating on environmental issues at the policy convention but that was the end of the conversation.\u201cThe vote is private,\u201d she explained when reached Monday.\u201cI\u2019m just not prepared to say which way I'm going to vote.\u201d Robert Cowling, the second-term St Henri-Westmount riding association president and Turner enthusiast, said riding members are encouraged to vote as individuals.\u201cI don't think Mr Johnston has tried to influence anybody and it certainly hasn\u2019t been my policy to influence anybody,\u201d Mr Cowling said in a telephone interview Tuesday.Mr Cowling, who will be voting at the convention as an ex-officio member, said, \u201cThere is no question John Turner is a man of ability.His problem seems to be one of popularity.But I'm prepared to give him more time and trust his popularity grows.\u201d Another delegate with \u201cabsolute\u201d support for the Liberal leader is Brenda Norris, Mr Turner's sister.Repeating her brother's long-held contention that 50 percent plus one vote is enough to retain the leadership, Mrs Norris said, \u201cIf he has a majority I think he should stick it out.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t think the party should be run by a minority.\u201d She added her brother remains \u201cfairly optimistic\u201d about the outcome on Sunday.\u2018Tremendous enthusiasm\u2019 Mrs Norris said she senses a \u201c\u2018tremendous enthusiasm among the delegates\u201d as they prepare to finalize policy this weekend for the next election.: \u201cI think it's unfortunate the press has highlighted the leadership question because most of the delegates are focussed on policy.\u201d Six St Henri-Westmount resolutions are going to committee for debate at the convention, Mrs Norris noted.The resolutions call for a reduction in the deficit, increased sovereignty in the Arctic and increased official foreign aid.Three other resolutions deal with environmental issues, including acid rain.For Victor Drury, son of former Westmount MP and federal minister C.M.(Bud) Drury, ultimate support of John Turner hinges on policy.Mr Drury said he is currently behind Mr Turner, adding \u201cI don't think it's likely I'll change my mind.\u201d Yet he qualified his statement to say, \u201cMy final decision is contingent on the policy pronouncements I hope he will enunciate at the convention.\u201cI like to keep my options open.\u201d Mr Drury said he would like to see the party clarify its stand on free trade, unemployment and job retraining.Brigitte Ramaseder, a vice-presi- dent for the youth wing of the riding, N Victor Drury said she is firmly behind Mr Turner and believes he'll achieve \u201cat least 60 percent\u201d delegate support.\u201cPeople are hesitant about having another review so soon,\u201d she said.Fellow youth delegate Richard Lalonde, a veteran of a number of party conventions, apparently did The Westmount Examiner, not share Miss Ramaseder\u2019s view.He said he would \"rather not comment\u201d on his political allegiances because \u201cmy mind isn\u2019t exactly made up yet.\u201d But he added, in apparent reference to statements made by former cabinet minister Marc Lalonde two weeks ago, \u20181 think a leader's image is as important as policy.\u201d Jan Davis, another veteran delegate, describes himself as a \u201cbig Johnston supporter\u201d from the 1984 leadership convention.\u201cAt this point 1 tend to vote against a review,\u201d Mr Davis told THE EXAMINER.But his reasoning appeared to be more out of pragmatism than love for the leader.\u201cThere are too many things to do to get prepared for the next election,\u201d Mr Davis explained, to waste valuable human and material resources on another costly leadership convention.NN Thursday, November 27, 1986 - 11 RR ae A 0 Heather Johnston Mr Davis said instead the party must work on a coherent set of policies in order to form the next govern ment.\u201cMy reasons for supporting Turner are very,

policies.The City's high level of services must be maintained at minimal costs, at the same time keeping property taxes within acceptable norms.For 1987, single family residential valuations increased 17.7% over 1986.By contrast, the valuation increases in 1987 for apartments and condominiums is 10.0% and 12.3% for the commercial sector.From this, one can expect that the tax burden will continue to shift from apartments and commercial establishments to the single-family, duplex and triplex category.As for 1987 expenditures, the following items are noteworthy: * Price of water from City of Montreal is up $266,600 or 19.5%; * Cost for M.U.C.services (projected) is up $833,100 or 6.9%; Workmen's Compensation premium is up $137,000 or 52.1%; and there will also be increased costs due to restructuring of both the Director General's and Personnel Offices.Another of Council's objectives is to equalize the effects of our debt service costs over the next several years.This can be accomplished by adequately funding and making more use of the City's working fund with respect to finance major expenditures for the municipal and utility operations.At this time, it would be anticipated that some of the 1986 surplus will be used to reduce the 1987 tax burden.The capital expenditure program for the three-year period 1987 to 1989 is presently under review.These capital expenditures will be financed out of operating revenues, revenues derived from cadastral operations, the working fund and the loan by-laws fund.In closing | would like to emphasize that all budget estimates are subject to detailed review and approval before their adoption.The 1987 budget will be formally presented on 16th December 1986.Brian Gallery Mayor City of Westmount WESTMOUNT

EMERGENCIES/URGENCES INCENDIE 911 911 _ 935-1777 REE] 1985 ont été déposés devant le Conseil par le trésorier de la Ville comme l'exigent les dispositions de la Loi sur les cités et villes.Ces états, vérifiés par Thorne, Ernst & Whinney, vérificateurs de la Ville, ont été émis «sans réserve» le 21 mars 1986.Les points saillants des résultats de l'exercice 1985, avec certaines explications relatives aux principaux écarts entre les résultats réels et le budget ont fait l'objet d'un exposé détaillé du Commissaire aux Finances le 7 avril 1986.Néanmoins, je résume ces points saillants comme suit: Le montant total des revenus de la Ville pour l'année s'est élevé à 32 964 764$ et celui des dépenses à 31 815 793$, laissant un excédent de 11489718.L'examen du volet revenus de ces états révèle que le principal écart par rapport au budget s'est situé au niveau des taxes municipales.Les réductions et les redressements au chapitre des taxes municipales pour l'exercices précédents se sont élevés à 786 600$.Heureusement, d'autres revenus ont été supérieurs aux prévisions budgétaires et ont permis de compenser la forte perte en revenus de taxes.Des revenus additionnels ont été produits par les parcomètres, les permis de construction, les droits de mutations immobilières, les droits sur les divertissements et l'intérêt sur les investissements à court terme.Au total, nos revenus nets ont excédé de 277 364$ les prévisions budgétaires.L'examen du volet dépenses révèle que le coût du financement du régime de retraite amélioré de nos sapeurs-pompiers s'est élevé à 200 000$ et le montant des intérêts sur les remboursements de taxes a excédé de 218 800$ les prévisions budgétaires sous l'effet des redressements de taxes pour des exercices précédents.Ces dépenses ont été compensées par des écarts favorables au niveau des activités de la Sécurité publique (125 000$), du redressement versé par la Ville de Montréal au chapitre de l'eau (227 100$), d'un hiver plus clément qui a réduit le coût de l'enlèvement et de la disposition de la neige (209 000$), du service des Parcs et Loisirs (165 700$) et de dépenses d'immobilisations moins élevées (250 000$).L'étude du bilan indique que les investissements de trésorerie et à court terme s'élevaient à 3500 000$ au 31 décembre 1985.Le montant de nos comptes à recouvrer s'élevait à 1057 900$ par rapport à des comptes à payer de 4 606 300$.Au 31 décembre 1985, nous disposions d'un excédent de 3 354 028$.Comme nous l'avons signalé lors de la présentation du budget de 1986, de cet excédent un montant de 700000$ a été approprié pour équilibrer le budget de 1986 et un montant supplémentaire de 267 000$ pour régler le premier versement au fonds de réserve- maladie des sapeurs-pompiers.Ceci a pour résultat de réduire l'excédent accumulé à 2 387 028$.Les dépenses d'immobilisations, y compris celles reliées au service de l'Énergie électrique.se sont élevées à 2 185 000$ en 1985.Un montant de 985 000$ de ces dépenses a été financé par règlements d'emprunt, un montant de 1075 700$, par le fonds de roulement et un autre montant de 151 300$ a été imputé au budget d'exploitation.Compte tenu de tous ces éléments, on peut affirmer que la Ville était et demeure en bonne situation financière comme l'indiquent le niveau des placements de trésorerie et à court terme, la situation des comptes à recouvrer et tous les rapports appropriés entre nos engagements à long terme et l'évaluation, nos revenus et par habitant.Il.PRÉVISIONS - 1986 À partir des résultats obtenus jusqu'à ce jour et des prévisions pour le reste de l'année, nous pouvons nous attendre que l'exercice 1986 se terminera avec un excédent supérieur à 1600 000$.On prévoit que le montant des taxes et des compensations sera de 650 000$ supérieur au budget essentiellement à cause de constructions nouvelles.Les droits sur les mutations immobilières excéderont, prévoit-on, de 160 000$ le montant prévu à ce chapitre au budget sous l'effet d'une activité plus forte et de prix plus élevés enregistrés sur le marché immobilier.L'intérêt sur les investissements à court terme et sur les arriérés de taxes sera d'environ 80 000$ supérieur au budget.On s'attend aussi à ce que le revenu net de l'exploitation du service de l'Énergie électrique soit supérieur aux prévisions en raison de ventes d'électricité plus fortes et de la remise à plus tard d'une émission d'emprunt.Au début de 1986, Westmount a reçu du gouvernement du Québec un montant de 97 029$ en dédommagement des dégats causés par la tempête de verglas de 1983, et de 683 834$ au titre de l'expropriation de la rue Selby.Ces éléments représenteront 780863$ de notre excédent anticipé en 1986.IN.BUDGET 1987 En ce qui concerne le prochain exercice fiscal 1987.les directives municipales relatives au budget d'exploitation prévoient des augmentations des revenus et des dépenses conformes aux objectifs et aux politiques arrêtés par le conseil.Le niveau de qualité élevée des services assurés par la Ville doit être maintenu à un coût minimal et, en même temps, les taxes foncières doivent s'inscrire dans des normes acceptables.L'évaluation des résidences unifamiliales a augmenté de 17.7% en 1987 par rapport à 1986, augmentation qui tranche sur celle de 10,0% qui s'applique en 1987 aux maisons d'appartements et aux immeubles en co-propriété, et de 12,3% pour le secteur commercial.Ces données nous permettent de prévoir que le fardeau fiscal continuera de glisser des maisons d'appartements et des établissements commerciaux vers la catégorie des résidences unifamiliales, des duplexes et des triplexes.Les points saillants suivants méritent d'être signalés au niveau des dépenses pour 1987: * le coût de l'eau fournie par la Ville de Montréal augmente de 266 600$, soit de 19,5%: e le coût des services de la CUM (prévisions) augmente de 833 100$, soit de 6,9%: * le coût des primes au chapitre des accidents de travail augmente de 137 000$, soit de 52,1 %; il faut également s'attendre à une augmentation des coûts résultant de la restructuration du bureau du Directeur général et du bureau du Personnel.Un autre des objectifs du Conseil est de répartir l'effet du coût du service de notre dette sur les années qui suivent.Ceci peut être réalisé en approvisionnant suffisamment le Fonds de roulement de la Ville et en y ayant davantage recours pour le financement de dépenses Continued on page 34 Ambulance disruptions don\u2019t affect Westmount Labor problems which reduced the number of Urgences Santé ambulances in operation this week appeared not to affect the service in Westmount, fire officials said Tuesday.The fire brigade's first responder unit answered one borderline calijgy Montreal Monday on the chance tF£.\" it might be of assistance in the event an ambulance were not available.When crews arrived at 3274 St Antoine street an ambulance already was in attendance to help a sick two-year-old girl.Other calls have been

Park.Public safety officers said cement was scratched and a croquet hoop damaged.A number of MUC cars were then seen stopping a Ford van at Belmont crescent and one man was believed to have been arrested.Police said no report was made of the incident, which occurred about 10:50 pm.Roof fix-up at city yard gets go-ahead City employees stationed at the yard office, on Bethune avenue, no longer have cause to fear the trials and tribulations of winter.City council approved the $8,474 bid of O.Miron Limitée last week to supply all the labor, materials and equipment required to carry out repairs on the yard office roof.The repair contract was sought by three other companies including Always Maintenance, which finished second in bidding with a quote of $9,422.In other purchases approved by council, Westmount bought 246 metres of 500 MCM 15 kV, three- conductor PILC cable with protective covering for $23,446.26 from Les Industries Amecan.Amecan also received a contract from the city to supply 92 metres of number 4/0 15 kV, three-conductor PILC cable with protective covering for $6,369.32.\u20ac Pottery kiln starts alarm A kiln used to fire pottery at the Visual Arts Centre, 350 Victoria avenue, caused two problems last Thursday night, fire officials report.The first incident called out firefighters at 6:52 pm when a basement heat detector was set off by heat from the kiln.At 8:30 pm, a sprinkler head was found flowing in the basement.It was triggered when the door to the kiln room was left open and tongs had to be used to stop the flow of .PEN \"A v .00 a 3

mayor Brian Gallery as leading to a positive approach to suburban concerns in the MUC.\u201cI'm very optimistic about the future,\u201d he said after attending a luncheon for suburban mayors hosted by Mayor Doré at Montreal city hall after his swearing-in last Thursday.\u201cJust the idea of Mayor Doré inviting us to lunch immediately after the aring-in ceremony as his next icial function was symbolic of his approach.We all appreciated it,\u201d Mayor Gallery added.By LAUREEN SWEENEY The Montreal mayor told the suburban mayors that the MUC would be a partnership between his city and the suburbs, Mayor Gallery said.Westmount's mayor described his Montreal counterpart as \u2018\u2018very articulate and very impressive.\u201cI'm very positive about what he's going to do and we all

every time he thinks of me he'll think of Sir William Hingston.\u201d The suburban mayors also met together last Thursday night under the auspices of the Conference of Montreal Suburban Mayors to elect their representatives on MUC committees.Mayor Gallery, who runs a publishing business, said he did not allow his name to stand owing to the time commitment that the committee work would entail.He explained that the committee work of the suburban representatives was important in influencing MUC directions.\u201cSome people have an incorrect impression that this can be done at MUC council meetings.\u201d Decisions at those meetings, he said.were \u201ccut and dried\u201d and had been \u201csigned.sealed and delivered\u201d at the executive committee level.\u201cOur suburban

current mood south of the border.\u201cDuring the Vietnam war, sales shot up,\u201d she explained, adding that it was the Voice of Women in the mid- sixties who initiated anti-military toy movement in Canada.\u201cNow with the invasion of Grenada and intervention in Latin America they've become popular again.\u201d Since 1982, the sale of war toys in Canada has climbed 350 percent, Miss Ravensberger said.The pressure on children to purchase these types of toys seems to be pervasive.\u201cThe average child sees 800 ads per year promoting military toys and four to eight cartoon shows

technique With the present market for nature art so wild and the competition among artists so savage, a book like From the Wild kills two birds .er, satisfies the demands of closet Audu- bons of the world while offering a superb Christmas gift idea.@:: by Toronto Star art critic ChMsStopher Hume with an introdue- tion by Westmount resident David Lank, From the Wild is a collection of portfolio samplings from a dozen of North America\u2019s most accomplished wildlife artists.Mr Hume told THE EXAMINER this week artists for the volume were \u201cchosen on the basis of excellence, not popularity.\u201d Thus, one has virtual unknowns brushing up against the likes of realist stars Robert Bateman and Mr Field Guide to the Birds himself, Roger Tory Peterson.The result is a magnificent compilation of strikingly distinctive styles ranging from Mr Peterson's and Fenwick Lansdowne's bird family portraits to works by Lanford Monroe and John Schoenherr, where the furry ones are set in surreal or impressionistic woodsy environments.Montreal artist Claudio D'Angelo of Queen Mary road is the only Quebec contributor and, thankfully, his renditions of Canadian Shield as well as deep ocean wildlife do him and the province proud.Indeed, so gripping is Mr D'Angelo\u2019s \u201cOrca Breaching,\u201d Mr Hume said three offers to purchase were received shortly after the book's release last month.Seven of the artists are Canadian: RTECS SPIE Cg Messrs Bateman, D'Angelo, and Lansdowne, Glen Loates (whose \u201cWood Ducks\u201d is, regrettably, an uninspiring choice for the book's cover), George McLean, Ron Parker and Terry Shortt.Canada leads Mr Hume suggests the predominance of Canadians in the world of nature painting is an inevitable product of the lingering proximity to nature in the Canadian experience.Included in the 192-page volume are selections from Bob Kuhn, reputedly the dean of all wildlife painters.His broad-stroke technique and use of bold colors capture the dominant emotions of an animal's life \u2014 be it the confidence of the stalking panther or the terror of the stalked antelope \u2014 with stirring effectiveness.Mr Lank, who lives on Forden avenue, is probably Canada's foremost authority on wildlife art, according to Mr Hume.In his introduction he traces the history of wildlife painting from the cave-dwellers to the modern masters.He explains the rise in popularity of wildlife art: \u201cWe feel the need to establish our place in the natural scheme of things, to reestablish our bonds with the spirit of the wilder ness.The wildlife artist is our link with that spirit.\u201d The raison d\u2019étre for the book, Mr Hume explained, was to assemble in one package North America\u2019s top dozen wildlife painters whose work is otherwise only available in individual books, galleries, or not accessible to the ordinary wildlife art lover at all.He notes the \u201cincredible\u201d interest in wildlife art has had a \u201cgood and bad\u201d impact on the genre.While talented artists are now able to make a living, many \u201csecond-rate\u2019 painters have been trying to cash in.\u201cIts been said there are more wildlife artists now than wildlife,\u201d Mr Hume said.From the Wild, then, is an effort to cull the herd of wildlife painters and offer up the best and most stimulating of contemporary interpretations of nature.Summerhill Press has done a superlative job in packaging the book, its first such leap into the picture-plate, coffee-table market.And at a listed price of $50, the book is an affordable, indeed essential addition to the collection of any self- respecting fan of flora, fauna and fish.\u2014 Peter Black Something to sell?Use EXAMINER classifieds.Call 931-7511.The Westmount Examiner,

a room was set aside for meditation; and occasionally a guru would drop by for a visit.By 1978, however, the novelty had worn off and the audience began to shrink.\u201cI found myself the music director of a station that was doing badly in the ratings,\u2019 says Mr Braide.\u201cWe were just too eclectic and we weren't reaching enough people.We realized that in order to survive, the station had to develop a format.Consultants moved in A group of consultants was called in to come up with a successful programming format.Although some staffers initially resisted the changes, they soon gave in.The number of listeners doubled in two months.During the summer of 1984, CHOM left its mystical house and moved down the street.It joined its sister station CKGM in the highrise building at 1310 Greene avenue.\u201cThe old building was in terrible shape,\u201d Mr Braide remembers.\u201cIt SPÉCIALITÉS ALIMENTAIRES IMPORTED FANCY FOODS * M 484-8436 2220 OUEST SHERBROOKE WEST, WESTMOUNT NIGHTLINE For over 6 years: free breakfasts each Saturday at Clement's 484-5453 | [rom exico European Style Fo ne SPECIALS STABERVRNBAR PE 44052 ViEWNA FRENCH CHEESE 0.ASPARAGUS THIS WEEK Pim PE.40a CRUSTY QQ¢ Brean JTS ICEBERG SIRLOIN TIP PREVIOUSLY FROZEN 100% PURE BUTTER FARM HOUSE LETTUCE 69: ROAST BEEF oo perp @ Qc CRESCENTS 6/495 DOUBLE CRUSTY CANADA NO 1 CANADA 3 » LIVER 99¢ THEM DAILY / 1 BREAD - PINK RIVER 4 EOR ICELANDIC FROZEN PACIFIC SOCKEYE CRACKED WHEAT FRESH HEALTH FOOD SMOKED SIX GRAIN en 99: SCAMPI 1 99 SALMON 1 99 BREAD ¢ BREAD 1% | FROM FLORIDA SIZE 18x24 SLICED b 1202 ea.MADE WITH SPRING WATER J _PRIGES VALID FROM NOV.24 TO 29/86 - WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT QUANTITIES.RETR PRECINCT IRR am AN em oe a a vue 4 bt pt bt pet pm pue) Le TO T1T re\u2014 ed at e for 7 had an to nusic loing ;

officers they needed help in retrieving their car key, which was locked inside the booth, so they could drive back to Ottawa.Although incident reports did not mention whether the key was obtained or whether the men had left the lot, it later was reported that $300 damage had been caused to the booth by breaking a window.Police said the damage was believed caused in retrieving the car key.A police search for the men at 2:30 am resulted in the arrest for impaired driving.No charges were laid regarding the damage.Pry foiled An attempt to break into a car on Upper Lansdowne avenue Saturday failed

growth must be stemmed, says sage Suzuki For David Suzuki the equation is clear: continued economie growth results in a steady decline in society's quality of life.\u201cWho cares how many brands of toothpaste we have to choose from?\u201d the well-known scientist, author and broadcaster asked a packed Victoria Hall last Wednesday evening during an ress sponsored by the Quebec Li Association as part of the Children's Book Festival.\u201cThere is an enormous amount of waste and redundancy today.\u201cIf we care at all about our children, if we care at all about our planet and environment, we cannot continue to aim for exponential growth.\u201cWe'll consume everything,\u2019 he warned.\u201cThere\u2019ll be nothing left.\u201d The well-known broadcaster, author and physicist challenged his audience to re-evaluate some of the \u201cmyths\u201d society readily accepts as true.\u201cNothing continues to grow exponentially,\u201d Dr Suzuki said, and yet politicians and economists continue to call for at least 3 percent real growth in the economy annually.Perhaps, he suggested, memory is to blame.If one charted growth, Dr Suzuki said, \u201cfor 99 percent of our existence that curve is flat \u2014 we lived in equilibrium with nature.\u201cIn the last 100 years, that curve leaps right off the page.\u201d \u201cBecause it's a recent phenomenon everybody believes we can sustain it.\u201d Using oil as an example, Dr Suzuki illustrated the myth.\u201cWe speak of a glut of oil on the market today.How in the world can you have a glut of a non-renewable regource?\u201d 0il \u2018precious\u2019 He estimated that by the first part of the next century, oil will be an extremely precious commodity, if not completely exhausted.There is \u2018a lot of room\u201d for negative growth in our economy if society wishes to preserve nature's rapidly depleting resources, he said.The widely held belief that society manages its resources is an \u2018\u201c\u2018absolute delusion,\u201d Dr Suzuki said, mentioning the ravaged forests and salmon stock in his home province of British Columbia.There is no cost-free technology today and despite efforts at cost- benefit analysis, he continued, implications can be crippling down the road.With the birth control pill, the benefits were immediate enough.Even an exhaustive two-year test \u201con Puerto Rican women, of course,\u201d Dr Suzuki said, failed to unearth any costs.; It was only years later, after millions of women had used the pill, that the side-effects materialized in statistical evidence.DDT was thought to be a magical pesticide until one realized \u201cthat the vast majority of insects are not pests,\u201d Dr Suzuki said, but species olf to sustain an ecological bal- an \u201cYou don't talk about eliminating crime in New York by killing everybody,\u201d he said.\u201cWe have come to feel intoxicated withthe discoveries of the last two or three decades.\u201d Thus, the broadcaster continued, scientists attempt to rush out and \u201cexploit\u201d the new technologies despite the fact science \u201cis basically in the business of disproving itself.\u201d Technology \u2018master\u2019 Technology is no longer man\u2019s servant, but man's master, Dr Suzuki said.\u201cWe operate on the belief that we can invent new technologies to clean up old ones.\u201d But, he continued, \u201cwe have created technologies so complex and powerful that we can't control them.\u201d Dr Suzuki then went on to deliver a comical anecdote on what would happen if the U.S.S.R.launched a massive nuclear attack.\u201cFirst of all, I don't believe any of these technologies would work, but say they do,\u201d he said.Down in the depths of NORAD's command post in Colorado, missiles would suddenly light up on a serviceman\u2019s computer terminal.He would have six to eight minutes to react, Dr Suzuki said.\u201cImmediately any normal human being would be struck with a severe case of diarrhea .but these are special people.\u201cSo the guy says, \u2018Ah, the Ruskies have finally done it'.\u201d Finally by the time the news reaches the White House, assuming time is still left to make a decision on whether to launch a retaliatory strike, Dr Suzuki said, one has to hope President Ronald Reagan is sitting upright and alert, able to react quickly to the crisis.\u201cThis guy reads with his lips,\u201d Dr Continued on next page David Suzuki speaking at Victoria Hall Thursday last week MONTESSORI SCHOOLS INC.Established in 1966 PROGRESSIVE EDUCATION

before a human decision could he reached.\u201cThat's, ladies and gentlemen, when you no longer have control over technology,\u201d Dr Suzuki said.Cut consumption In an interview later, Dr Suzuki said he would like to see society \u201cstart cutting back on consumption and reduce waste\u201d and ideally revert back to a 1940s type of lifestyle.\u201cIt doesn't mean there would be a reduction in the quality of life.On the contrary,\u201d he said.What it does mean is that adults would have to give up their vested interests in the status quo.This is why Dr Suzuki prefers to take his

crucial issue today, not continued economic growth, Dr Suzuki said, and the only way to accomplish that is to have people elected to government who recognize the gravity of the current situation.Although he has been asked to run for office by major political parties on a number of occasions, he told THE EXAMINER, he has declined.The only attractive political party, he explained, would be the Green Party.Asked what would be wrong with taking the pragmatic route and joining a major federal party to become environment minister, Dr Suzuki replied: \u201cThat's the type of decision Stephen Lewis made (in accepting his appointment as ambassador to the United Nations).\u201cBut I think Stephen must find himself in very troubled times.\u201cI think I'm more effective
