[" - Cedar traffic experiment called flawed and perilous Westmount\u2019s attempt to divert traffic on to The Boulevard by narrowing Cedar avenue is a \u201cflawed experiment\u201d which causes traffic chaos and endangers lives, furious residents of The Boulevard told city council Monday night.They handed council a 16-signa- ture petition demanding that the experiment be stopped immediately and that area residents be consulted before the city acts.Councillor resigns to join CBC By LAUREEN SWEENEY It was a painful resignation Monday for Westmount city councillor Stuart Robertson \u2014 a choice between doing what he loves most and earning a living.The ward 5 representative gave up his seat on council after serving three years to avoid conflict of interest with his new job at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.A byelection will not be held to fill his seat since the resignation falls within a year of the next municipal election in November 1991, Mayor May Cutler announced Tuesday.Mr Robertson, 46, who served most of his time as commissioner of planning and redevelopment, recently joined the current affairs department of CBC radio on the production team of Radio Noon after a freelance career.\u201cWith extreme reluctance, I've had to conclude the career move is more important to me,\u201d he told council colleagues.Known as a responsive constituency man, Mr Robertson apologized to voters in his ward for resigning, but said Mayor Cutler offered her support in representing them.She confirmed her support, and cited Mr Robertson for his \u201cgenuine concern for the lasting values of Westmount.\u201d Second to resign He is the second member of the 1987 council to resign.Phillip As- pinall, finance commissioner, left Oct 10, 1989, citing work responsibilities.He was replaced in a byelection by Peter Trent.Mr Robertson represented council on the city\u2019s Architectural and Plan- - ning Commission and was an active member of the beautification committee.He formed the demolition committee and was a leading light in the heritage study and Maisons Continued on page 25 Seven residents of The Boulevard who attended council took turns lambasting council.\u2018\u2018We feel the premise of this experiment is not valid,\u201d Marika Asimako- pulos said.\u201cThis experiment should stop.\u201d Cedar avenue was narrowed to one lane at The Boulevard late last month after lobbying from Cedar avenue residents, who complained that there was too much speeding By CHARLES ABRAMOVICI traffic on their street.Dr Arthur Leith, a Cedar avenue activist, said in a telephone interview yesterday morning that it\u2019s only fair that The Boulevard takes half the load of eastbound traffic.Cedar avenue residents argue their street is like a racetrack and The Boulevard is designated a major artery in Westmount's five-year development plan, not Cedar.The Boulevard proponents argue that Cedar residents knew the nature of their street before they bought their homes and it's unfair to ask for changes to the detriment of The Boulevard residents.\u201cAre you saying that because a situation was bad when we started we should continue to live with it?\u201d .Dr Leith asked.\u201cIt\u2019s a speedway!\u201d He said motorists consistently Making all of Westmount your home Vol.LXII, No.45 Westmount, Quebec, Thursday, November 8, 1990

at Monday night's city council meeting.Though exact figures will not be disclosed prior to the Dec 3 budget, Mayor May Cutler indicated a sizeable amount of the surplus, now forecast to reach $5 million, will be used to reduce the tax rate.- Westmounters will be.very proud of the city\u2019s efforts to keep city spending substantially below the rate of inflation, she said.Earlier estimates by Councillor Peter Trent indicated 1990 might produce a more modest $3-million surplus.But unanticipated revenues from the electric utility and new condominium units keep revising estimates upward.Day

The Study, a private school on The Boulevard, said there are three schools on The Boulevard.She is concerned about children\u2019s safety.\u201cThe fact is that this is a very busy \u2018street.There are children crossing all day.\u201d Councillor Peter Duffield defended the city\u2019s position, saying this is only an experiment and residents will be consulted before any permanent changes are made.He said studies show The Boulevard was underutilized, as compared to Cedar.Bruce St Louis, Westmount's manager of operational services, sdid a traffic survey indicated about 70 percent of eastbound traffic uses Cedar Continued on page 10 Trent outlines plan to link parks By LAUREEN SWEENEY A plan to green over almost a third of Summit Circle along the north side was tossed out as a trial balloon at Monday night's city council meeting.Removal of almost one-third of the mile-long circular street would create a continuous urban forest from the lookout north to Forest Hill road, Councillor Peter Trent said in seeking citizen reaction.It would reduce speeding traffic and noise, allow the dying snow dump area on the north slope to rejuvenate and save the city some $50,000 a year in street maintenance, he Mr Trent said the main hitch lies in closing off access to emergency vehicles and, in particular, to two fire hydrants located along the street.That problem could be solved by a service road to the hydrants, fire officials said.Without such access, however, it is feared that Montreal Water Works would not service the hydrants which are needed to combat summer and fall \u201cYou could have an awfully big bush fire in a 50-acre forest,\u201d explains Fire Chief James Adams.The plan would consolidate 12.4 hectares (31 acres) of the Summit Park bird sanctuary with 7.2 hectares (18 acres) of Belvedere Park.The land used by that portion of Summit Circle itself for another 0.4 hectares (one acre), which the city has valued at $2 million.It would create a continuous sanctuary for the city\u2019s fauna and flora stretching north from the lookout over the summit and down the north side to Forest Hill raad.Citizens \u201cunscientifically polled\u201d by Councillor Rhoda Vineberg last Sunday on the summit brought up other \u201cYes, it would be quieter,\u2019 she admitted.But through traffic, already reduced by addition of obstacles, promotes a feeling of security in an unpopulated area, she said.\u201cIt might be unsafe,\u201d she suggested.\u201cYou'd have no idea Continued on page 14 Westmount can expect tax break By LAUREEN SWEENEY to $3-million increase in our MUC apportionment, the mill rate for 1991 will most likely be somewhat lower than the 1990 rate,\u201d Mayor Cutler said.This year's taxerate is $1.44 per $100 of property valuation.Since the valuation roll is frozen for tax purposes until the 1992 taxation year, * any mill rate reduction will decrease taxes.The picture might not be so rosy in 1992 when Westmount\u2019s MUC share will increase again.The financial condition of the city for the years 1989, 1990 and 1991 was \u2018reported by the mayor, as required by law, at least 30 days before tabling of the 1991 budget.(The complete text is published in the city\u2019s \u201cOffi- pen on.the amount of sur-.cial Notice Board\u201d in this-issue.) Ris aRplied to.offset part of (the) 42, The nepy, budget is scheduled-to be - \u2019 vo , esa tabled two weeks earlier than usual.Preparatory to the budget, Mr Trent introduced legislation to appropriate $4.9 million of the city's $7.5-million accumulated surplus from other years to write off outstanding loan by-laws worth $3.5 million and to increase the working fund from $4.5 million to $5.9 million.\u201cThis will enable us to reduce future interest costs by moving to a pay-as-you-go policy for capital expenses,\u201d he explained.Under Quebec law, municipalities are permitted to create working funds not exceeding 10 percent of the year's operating budget.West- mount\u2019s total 1990 budget, including the electric utility, is $59 million.The allocations would deplete the accumulated surplus to $2.6 million before addition of the anticipated $5 .million from 1991.STV + ATS November 8, 1990 Next Scheduled City Council Meeting Monday, November 19, 7:30 pm Date de la prochaine séance du conseil municipal Le lundi 19 novembre, 19h30 WESTMOUNT RÔLE D'ÉVALUATION FONCIÈRE POUR 1989-1990-1991 AVIS PUBLIC est par la présente donné par le soussigné, Greffier de la corporation municipale de Westmount, conformément aux exigences de l'article 74.1 de la Loi sur la fiscalité municipale (L.R.Q., chapitre F-2.1), que toute plainte concernant le rôle d'évaluation foncière triennal de ladite corporation municipale pour les années 1989-1990-1991, au motif que l'évaluateur n'a pas effectué une modification qu'il aurait dû y apporter en vertu de l'article 174 de ladite Loi, doit être déposée au cours de l'exercice pendant lequel survient l'événement justifiant la modification ou du suivant;

control.\u201d As he gets \u2018more and more concerned\u201d over what he claims is \u201cno discipline, no accountability\u201d in the MUC \u2014 a condition which most property-taxpayers long have suspected \u2014 we believe it is long since the time when we should be deploring and, instead, asking some pertinent questions.We all should remind ourselves that there is an MUC council.It is comprised of all the mayors of the island municipalities plus the councillors of the City of Montreal.This is a deliberative and legislative body rather bigger but in nature not unlike our own city council.If, as in recent history, the Westmount bureaucracy got out of control, in due course city council could be expected \u2014 as it did this spring in changing its director-gen- eral \u2014 to take its responsibility and do something about it.It also has initiated some close scrutiny of the Westmount administrative structure and made changes, which are ongoing.It also has restructured council's own functions with regard to old commissionerships and new committees.Mr Trent happens to be currently the most powerful solon, perhaps not excluding even the mayor, as chair of the finance and administration committee of council.Mr Trent was reminded of this last week at the useful citizens\u2019 ward meetings sponsored by the Westmount Municipal Association.He had commented at an earlier city council meeting that Westmount\u2019s real estate valuation increases, which are prepared by the MUC, were disproportionately higher than in the MUC generally.WMA President Thomas Thompson suggested that \u201cIf we're paying to the MUC we should have some input for them to exercise some constraint on their spending and bureaucratic structure.\u201d * * * WELL, we are supposed to have such input through the MUC council, on which the mayor of Westmount, currently Mrs May Cutler, sits as a full voting member.And we also suppose, with some reason, that there are other municipalities on the island which feel as we in Westmount do.Mayor Cutler is not necessarily a lone voice, unable tobe heard, in MUC deliberations.Indeed, very little is heard through our first magistrate of her stewardship with regard to the MUC.Perhaps she does report regularly to city council in general committee, but it is rare that what she or her alternate councillor may have to say about the metropolitan government is reported in public.ro Inthe eras of Mayors McEntyre, Ouimet and MacCallum we heard a great deal about what was going on in the urban community and its committees.In fact, Mr Mac- Callum devoted more time to the MUC than some thought was necessary or beneficial to his first public responsibility, Westmount.As a result, however, we regularly were informed of the goings on and prospective undertakings of the MUC.It rarely was necessary for a Westmount alderman or councillor either to ask or to complain blindly.Montreal is well able to take care of itself in the MUC, and we feel sure it does.The preponderance of key positions are held by Montrealers.The suburbs from the outset have got the short end of the stick.In fact, the MUC was created and designed that way \u2014 in the first instance to get Montreal off the hook with the Montreal Policemen's Brotherhood.The MUC was a piece of connivance between Montreal\u2019s Mayor Jean Drapeau and Quebec's Premier Daniel Johnson, whose Union Nationale government passed the enabling legislation to set up this monstrous and ever more costly additional level of government.Neither the Liberals nor the Parti Québécois since had the fortitude to stand up to Mr Drapeau and correct some of the imbalances from which the suburbs still suffer.It was obvious to \u2018the suburbs from the * beginning that the MUC was not beneficial to them.In an attempt to present themselves by unity in strength of numbers there was created the Conference of Montreal Suburban Mayors.Some useful studies and co-ordinations were effected in the earlier days \u2014 again, our own late Mayor MacCallum was a key figure in the conference \u2014 but we must note that little is heard these days of that organization.If it is still functioning, we hear virtually nothing of it.* * * COUNCILLOR Trent could perform a great service not only to Westmount but also the cause of the suburbs generally if, instead of deploring, he were to address himself to renewed co-ordination among Montreal's surrounding municipalities in asserting their rightful demands in MUC activities.1f the MUC bureaucracy is out of control, as he claims with justification, it behooves both him and all of Westmount\u2019s local government to address themselves fo ways and means of doing something about it.Local citizens can chivvy Westmount council.It requires Westmount council \u2014 mayor and councillors in concert \u2014 to chivvy the MUCcouncil.- 1 our M.N.A.Richard B.Holden says.Opening statement THE Bélanger-Campeau Commission began public hearings Tuesday and I, like all the other members (except for the chairs, the prime minister and the leader of the opposition) made a 10-minute opening statement.Here\u2019s what I said: Merci M.le Président.The law creating this commission is preceded by a lengthy preamble which states the principles and purposes on which our work is to be based.One of the tenets which the National Assembly has unanimously agreed to in adopting this bill is the following: \u201cWhereas Quebec intends to pursue this objective in a spirit of fairness and open- mindedness respectful of the rights and institutions of the English-speaking community of Quebec.\u201d Let me repeat this undertaking as it appears in the French text: \u201cConsidérant que le Québec entend poursuivre cet objectif dans un esprit de justice et d\u2019ouverture, dans le respect des droits et des institutions de la communauté québécoise d'expression anglaise.\u201d Mr Chairman, it will be one of my main preoccupations, during all of our hearings and discussions, to emphasize and recall this very important assurance to all of our intervenors and to my colleagues around the table.Any group or individual who comes before us to promote a sovereign Quebec can expect to be asked what guarantees are proposed to assure the anglophone community that its rights and institutions will, in fact and in law, be respected.Is the use of English in the courts, in the National Assembly, in our schools and in our institutions to be enshrined in any Constitution that a sovereign Quebec might adopt?Is the sacred right to educate our children in English to be continued in an independent Quebec?Will the right to publish and broadcast in the English language be fully protected in a separate Quebec?| These, Mr Chairman, are just some of the questions I will be asking during the days ahead and the answers will be carefully noted, not only by anglophones but by these same fair and open-minded Quebecers of all origins who are referred to in the statement Continued on page 24 our M.P.David Berger © says.Voters not doing job MAYBE we do get the governments we deserve.Recent public opinion polls have indicated a high level of dissatisfaction with government and politicians.And yet only one-third of Montrealers voted in Sunday\u2019s municipal election.Oh yes, I know that the MCM and Jean Doré were headed for an easy re-election.Why bother voting when the result is a foregone conclusion?And it was a miserable day.Why not stay at home and watch the ball .game?Perhaps many people just do not feel that they can make a difference.I always tell people they can influence an MP\u2019s thinking by calling, writing or getting involved in the political party of their choice.It would seem that the message is not repeated often enough or that people do not believe it.Perhaps we all need more positive role models.I was raised in a fairly \u201cpolitical\u201d family.On Sunday, my father, who will be 91 in January, trudged up a steep hill to vote at .around 11 am.He would not think of leaving such an important responsibility until late in the day.New age, old age, sage age MY mother told fortunes.On our eastend street she was much in demand.Children would be sent by their mothers to.see if mine could please come over that evening and read the cards.Big sister had a new boyfriend, would it work out?Big brother had applied for a job, would he get it?Grandmother was ill, would she recover?Now my mother was no phoney.She did not make up the fortunes.She really read the cards.From the time I was tall enough to see over a table top, I stood and watched her, turning up cards, studying them individually and their relationship to each other: the ace of spades stood for a big building when it was right side up, for death when upside down.Each time she came across the upside down card, she carefully turned it right side up not to jinx the next fortune.I always wondered why, since the deck would get turned several times as it passed back and forth between her and the next \u2014 what?Listener, patient, victim, believer?One thing I could not call them was \u201cclient,\u201d because my mother took no money.She believed she would lose \u201cthe gift\u201d if she took money.But repaid she was, in the best way any theatrical person can be repaid, in the awed attention of the listener.How did this affect us?Why did I turn into the sceptic I am, that disdains future-gazing and believes with the Greek philosopher that \u201cyour character is your fate\u201d?One of my brothers believed.His personal library was proof of it.Here was Nostradamus, Napoleon's Book of the Days, Tarot, books on the meaning of dreams (non-Freudian, of course), palmistry, astrology \u2014 well, more about this last in a minute.In such a household where the world of the occult was everywhere, why did I not believe?Fortune teller\u2019s warning Was it perhaps my mother's oft-repeated story of why she herself never had anyone read her future in the cards?She wouldn't do it because when she was about to wed my father, a fortune-teller warned her that her husband would die within a few years after their marriage.In those days, Montreal police worked a 12-hour day, six hours on and six hours off, and \u2014 as my mother told it \u2014 every night while he was at work for several years, she would lie awake wondering about a step on the street.Did a sound at the door announce the arrival of news that he had been killed on duty?The fear passed with the years, and by the time I was born 11 years after their marriage, the warning lasted only as an explanation of why she never had her fortune told.She had worried needlessly.\u2019 She did not want to go through such fear again.Yet like an actor who can give a creditable performance of Hamlet even though he may \"never have contemplated suicide, she could not resist the power and the temptation of enthralling an audience.: I thought of her and my brother's occult library recently as I was surveying programs offered in our current Westmount handbook of recreation and cultural activities.Since the city is in the midst of a user- facility study, examining everything from sports to theatre, and the places they are held, I asked recreation how many and which of the programs offered did not get the minimum registration required for them to go ahead.Guess which was cancelled because there were only four registrants?ASTROLOGY! Ah, Westmount, you sage ones of the new age.Where else in the world would there be so little interest?Where else would so many be so wise in recognizing the basic fallacy of all fortune-telling: that the believer notes only what \u201ccomes true,\u201d and ignores all the inaccurate predictions.Bless you for recognizing that it is not in your stars but in yourselves lies your fate, that what you are is what you'll be.Blessed is the city that hath such people in it.A FOOLISH man tells a woman to stop talking, but a wise man tells her rom that her mouth is extremely beautiful when her lips are closed cL TA non A SERS 3 ; i Le 51 ' \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 ETT .pal of West Hill High School, is a fifth year.serie vreramen The Westmount Examiner = lestm't Rotary _ SP a 1 The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, November 8, 1990 - 5 mec ice Fo Socratories hehe.Churcher Amd pracietions Forty-five Years Ago November 9, 1945 \u201cGreatest need of Montreal High Schools today, according to Dorgen Heslam, princi- In Quebec, high schools have been trying to cram into four years what the rest of Canada and the United States have been doing in five, he said.The extra year would allow students to \u2018take their noses out of books a little, take part in activities such as athletics, public speaking and school bands, .and still cover the subject matter more thoroughly\u2019\u201d .\u201cResults of Westmount\u2019s Clothing Drive: \u2018Over 70,000 pounds of good, usable clothing alone, with many thousands of boots and shoes as well.\u201d \u201cMUC BUREAUCRALY OUT OF CONTROL ¥ \u2014 TRENT WESTMOUNT CITY HAD No FAT THE MUC NO LEAN AND SO BETWEEN THEM BOTH YOU SEE THEY PICKED TAXPAYERS CLEAN !!

Kensington, Metcalfe and Melville.Mr Udy clearly detailed the problem and supplied a simple and logical solution: limit de Maisonneuve to local cars and route inter-city through traffic along St Catherine.De Maisonneuve between Lansdowne and \u2018Claremont is a quiet, safe local street and lends itself to safe bicycling as well.Closing the eastern part of de Maisonneuve to fast through traffic will enable Westmount to finally create a safe two-way cycle path from Wood through Westmount Park to Clare- mont.The city of Montreal is at least a decade ahead of us in providing safe, permanent bike routes.John Udy's proposal will solve a number of problems in this district.When will West- mount act on this?224 Metcalfe avenue WESTMOUNT PQ H3Z 2H9 Brian Demaine Lights and Dog Day

feet onto the roadbed.As a result, there were no accidents.Thank you, Westmount Public Security officers, for doing this for the families who were out in Westmount on Halloween.Last Sunday a very

The reason is simple \u2014 things might go on there at those other times that may effect you when you're living there.There may be noises, for example, late at night that could interfere with your family\u2019s sleeping.The point we're trying to make is that when you buy a home you\u2019ll be there around the clock.Therefore, you should see what the place is like around the clock before buying.Doing this could save you much regret and grief later on, when it'll be too late to do anything.eal Re \"ROUND THE CLOCK CHECKING In May, five condominiums sold for a total of $2,785,000 with an average sale price of $557,000.June details Following are the details of the June transfers, in alphabetical order by street address: 467 Argyle: from Louis Fortier and Judith Harkness to Cary Kitner and Elen Henderson, sale price $340,000 (1989-91 Montreal Urban Community valuation $226,700); 522 Argyle: from Diane Francena De Boo to Gillian P.Wright, $485,000 ($390,600); 655 Belmont: from Michael Dan and Camille Gignac to Roslyn Joy Druckman, $430,000 ($324,300); Advertisement Estate By Reg Morden November fest 26 Anwoth: Sunny and well located.Immaculate 3 bedroom home with garage.Asking $389,000.424 Claremont: Ground floor opportunity and bargain basement price.Absolutely \u201cmust sell\u201d row!

LE bec tn \u201cts Ye x Es md dT OD «AT ER ee One- year blue-collar 3 contract aims to approach wage parity By CHARLES ABRAMOVICI Westmount\u2019s 125 blue-collar workers are closer to wage parity with other municipalities after signing a new one-year contract, according to city manager of operations Bruce St Louis.The one-year pact gives workers an average 6.4 percent wage increase; some will receive more, some less.Three differerit factors contribute to the increase.Firstly, employees are guaranteed a five-percent raise or a cost-of-liv- ing increase, whichever is higher, retroactive to Jan 1, 1990.Second, the agreement negotiated between Feb 9 and Oct 9 with local 3422 of the Canadian Union of Public Employees calls for an additional average salary increase of one percent to catch up with salaries in other municipalities.Third, there is a \u201cpremium pay\u201d provision, wbich means a laborer will be paid an additional salary for performing a temporary specialized task.For example, a laborer who drives a truck for two hours will be paid drivers\u2019 wages for those couple of hours.Councillor Peter Trent said at Monday's council meeting that a survey of other municipalities showed that Westmount workers were earning less than their counterparts.Some workers will receive greater increases than other.For example, a laborer who was earning $13.74 an hour in 1989 will now receive $14.53 an hour, a 5.7 percent increase.But a driver who was earning $14.92 an hour in 1989 .will receive $15.87, an increase of 6.3 percent.; Some job classification salaries lagged further behind than others in 12 municipalities surveyed.Specialized trades like plumbers and me- chanics will receive a cateh-up increase of 25 cents an hour while laborers will only receive 10 cents an hour to catch up.Jean-Claude Pilon, president of the local blue-collar union, could not be reached for comment.Adjustments in vacation allowances were also part of the new agreement, Mr St Louis said.Previously, an employee had to work eight years to be eligible for four weeks vacation per year.Now he only needs six years on the job.An employee of 14 years will be entitled to five weeks vacation while a 24- year veteran will be entitled to six weeks vacation.Thecity and union only agreed toa one-year contract because other issues need to be ironed out.The city was originally seeking a three-year deal.\u201cThere was a reticence tobe locked intb something by both sides,\u201d Mr St Louis said.For example, Mr St Louis said nobody could predict which way the economy would go in the next three years, but he was confident that within the next year thé cost of living would not increase by more than five percent.An important agreement to be a major factor in the next contract is an \u201cinternal job equity study\u201d by both thecity and union.The goal is to classify types of jobs, responsibilities and salaries.Asked if the administration was satisfied with the deal, Mr St Louis quoted former city manager Norman Dawe, \u201cIf both sides walk away feeling they didn\u2019t get everything they wanted, then it\u2019s a good deal.\u201d «Snow removal contract - Meanwhile, council accepted a tender Monday night of $78,000 from Les Entreprises Veral Inc for the snow removal in Westmount city 1 lanes, a job previously done by city employees.Mr Pilon said in a story last week that this was just another move by the city to whittle away at permanent blue-collar jobs through attrition.Councillor Peter Duffield said no permanent employees would lose their jobs as a result of Contracting out \u2018of snow.removal.At Monday's council meeting he said the city would save $13,000\"this year by the move.\u2019 Mr Pilon said the blue-collar work force has dropped from 400 permanent employees about 10 years ago.\u2018Fred Caluori, Westmount\u2019s director of public works, said his files show.there were about 196 permanent blue-collars 10 years ago.As part of a Canada-wide protest, \u2018\u2019Raging Grannies\" presented themselves to Armed Forces recruiting offices Friday to enlist The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, November 8, 1990 - 9 Bn a Stealth grannies full of fire Tig J RE WALTON TY 7 / so that their children and grandchildren not be called to serve.The protest action came in the wake of a recent statement by Joe Clark, that Canadian troops might have to fight in the Persian Gulf.Grannies raging against the Stealth bomber included Westmounters and Westmount Initiative for Peace members, pictured left to right, JUDY BERLIN, NANCY EDDIS, LOIS KLEMPA and MARY BABST.Photo byOWEN EGAN Roslyn contractor under the gun If the contractor cannot get all offices at Roslyn School in working condition by Monday, the board will take legal action to remove the workers and complete construction on its own.That statement was made by the PSBGM regional building and grounds director, Richard Jack, on Monday.\u201cIf we don\u2019t get the kind of progress (required), we will finish the job ourselves,\u201d said Mr Jack.\u201cWe feel OK about it now, we'll know better Monday morning.\u201d Mr Jack said expectations were the $700,000 job would be complete by now;

she has held her seat since first being elected in 1973.The term of office is usually three years.Mrs Rothman went through two election battles during that time, once against three male candidates to win her seat and again two elections ago, running against Marvin Rotrand, who on Sunday was reelected himself to Montreal city council for the Democratic Coalition.Mrs Rothman expressed regret there will be no campaign this time around, giving no chance to \u201cbring issues to the public and get a mandate to go on.\u201d Still, \u201cI have a reasonably clear idea of what the parents are demanding from education,\u201d she said.She said parents want their children to be prepared for the future, for immense changes.This country, based on natural resources, is moving towards a technical revolution, l\u2019ve prepared forthe GST.Have you?by non-profit organizations.Revenue Canada is ready to assist you with information on: um How to register and the Now is the time to register.benefits of doing so » w What the GST means to your operation Are you ready for the pro- a Simplified accounting posed GST?If not, now is the options and administrative time to register and prepare.procedures Registration applies to anyone uw Rebates of the Federal involved in acommercial enter- Sales Tax ® How to recover GST on business purchases ®@ GST return and filing options prise.This includes fishing, farming, professional services and many activities carried out Canada\u2019s GST.It's good business to prepare now.Contact us today.Phone: 496-1494 Outside Montreal call: 1800 361-8339 Telecommunications device for the hearing impaired: 1 800 465-5770 Or drop by the Revenue Canada Excise Office nearest you, Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m.to 5:00 p.m.Revenus Canada +l Douanes Ace Customs and Excise Canadä By ALISON RAMSEY À AEN JOAN ROTHMAN \u201cToo bad\" there will be no campaign.Fo requiring those skilled in maths and sciences, she said.Lack of commitment Mrs Rothman complained there is a lack of commitment by both federal and provincial governments on this need.- While the Quebec government, in charge of education in this province, wants a \u201cwell-rounded education for the Quebec child,\u201d said Mrs Roth- man, \u2018\u2018the teacher can't accommodate what that curriculum demands.\u201cWe're in a constant struggle, asking teachers to do more,\u201d she said, while\u2019 providing less funding.Therefore, creative thinking is required in the years ahead, and a recognition that adding programs means cutting in other areas.: Volunteers will become more necessary, she said.The surtax on homeowners based on property valuation, which West- mount is battling, is \u201ca piddle,\u201d vastly insufficient to cope with school demands, she added.Property owners have been taxed enough, she said, and it is time for the government to study new ways to fund education.Mrs Rothman did not suggest a specific kind of reform to replace the tax.In this time of recession, she said, there will be greater need for lunch programs.Westmount Park School, classed as an inner-city school, requires computers, a vice-principal and library funds, said Mrs Roth- man.Issues for the \u201890s include encouraging girls and women to enrol in math, attain equality of opportunity in education and employment, abolish adult and child illiteracy and better serve the ethnic students, she said.; As school boards continue debating linguistic boards with the Quebec government which is pushing the plan, Mrs Rothman said she is solidly against the idea because Quebec has the power, once the boards are created, to say French is the language of all Quebec schools.Mrs Rothman, co-founder of the first school-wide French immersion program at Roslyn School, said that kind of power \u201cis very scary.\u201d Cedar.Continued from page one compared to 30 percent on The Boulevard.The November 1989 survey indicated that on a typical day, between 8 am and 6 pm, about 7,400 vehicles travel by the Cedar-Boule- vard split and of those 5,000 go onto Cedar and 2,400 take The Boulevard.In a Sept 18 letter to area residents, Mr St Louis stated that the four- to six-week experiment aims to split the traffic more equitably between the two streets.All going well, the street should be back to normal some time in Decem- MARIKA ASIMAKOPULOS Wants traffic off The Boulevard.ber, said Mr St Louis, adding the time frame is very tentative.The letter also states the traffic lights on The Boulevard between Sy- denham and Mount Pleasant were synchronized at 40 kilometres per hour.Ms Marshall argued at the meeting that any comparison between the two streets was not valid since The Boulevard is a two-way street and the city\u2019s survey did not account for westbound traffic on The Boulevard.Ms Asimakopulos later said it was \u201cshocking\u201d that a well-organized group on Cedar avenue was trying to change the traffic status quo.There are just 34 residents on Cedar avenue between the split and Westmount\u2019s eastern border and about the same on The Boulevard, according to Mr Burke's petition.; At an April 1987 meeting, more than 300 angry Westmount residents packed Victoria Hall to protest traf- fic changes, including a highly controversial proposal to block Cedar avenue.Ms Asimakopulos calls this experiment a modified version of that proposal.\u201cWe're really horrified that we have to spend time and energy to deal with this problem again,\u201d she said.Residents met About 16 residents of The Boulevard met Sunday night to discuss the issue and plan theirstrategies.Councillor Daniel Tingley attended.A prime mover for the Cedar avenue forces, Superior Court Judge Benjamin Greenberg, declined to comment on the record.Dr Leith said many students cross north along Cedar avenue to get to one of the three schools on The Boulevard: The Study, St George's and The Priory.Crossing Cedar is dangerous, he said.\u201cThey need as much protection as the others.\u201d Mr Burke wrote in his petition that a total of 619 students attend the three schools.Councillor Duffield said he couldn't predict the outcome of the experiment but he was looking for a \u201cwin-win situation.\u201d \u201cTrust us,\u201d he said in council.\u201cWe won't do anything without everyone having a say.\u201d Mr St Louis said the results of the experiment probably won't be known until after the holidays.Both Cedar and The Boulevard residents are intent on fighting for their respective causes.\u201cBelieve me, the residents of The Boulevard will not accept this \u2014 any change to make Cedar a quieter residential street at the expense of The Boulevard is not acceptable,\u201d Ms Asi- makopulos wrote in an Oct 1 letter to Mr St Louis.Dr Leith was equally adamant.\u201cThe battle lines have been drawn,\u201d he said.Work stopped A stop-work order was issued to contractors working on outdoor tennis courts of the Plaza Tower about 6:32 am Friday, public safety officers report.A previous noise complaint also was recorded.Such work is not permitted before 7 am.Tey yy ret = as hY t .o vo we Raex + The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, November 8, 1990 - 11 Halloween hand- outers get their own trick-or-treat It seemed to be feast or famine Halloween night in Westmount this year.Some streets like Somerville or Upper Lansdowne avenues were brightly lit with saucy-looking pumpkins.Others, such as de Maisonneuve boulevard or Clarke avenue, were almost black.So many trick-or-treaters sought out Windsor avenue, one resident reported, that by 7:25 pm residents were taking down their outside decorations and putting up signs stating they had handed out all their candy.\u201cWe've had about 300 tonight,\u201d said Joanne Frankel outside 360 Kensington avenue, as Councillor Paul Fortin awarded her third prize in Westmount\u2019s best-decorated home contest.That was about 7:45 pm and kids were still traipsing up to her door.Trick-or-treaters at the Greene Avenue Community Centre were greeted by a prize- So many pumpkins were set out on Somerville that the entire two-block street was given a special honorary mention as having \u201cthe best street spirit in Westmount.\u201d There also was a bustle of activity at the Greene Avenue Community Centre, 1090 Greene avenue.And it\u2019s no wonder.They had the most eye- catching and imaginative decorations in Westmount, according to contest judges Fortin and Public Security Director Richard McEnroe.They gave it first prize for a massed pyramid of some 30 grinning and grimacing Jack O\u2019Lanterns.Beside them stood a.three-metre-high ghost surrounded by other sheeted spirits slithering about from an overhead wire.When greedy trick-or-treaters were told to help themselves from a big loot container, they found themselves wrist deep in goo.But it was winning display which included these Jack O'Lanterns.Projects to fortify car, child, home If you have a car, achild, ora home, this week's for you!

nsed 26d How St George's dig unearths one human bone By CHARLES ABRAMOVICI The year-long archeological dig at St George's Elementary School has failed to uncover Amerindian artifacts, according to a recently released final report.Only one human bone was found in the final stage of the dig.\u201cI would have liked to find more,\u201d archeologist Robert Larocque said Tuesday.\u201cI'm greatly disappointed but not totally surprised.\u201d Despite the meagre findings, he recommends in his report that all future excavations at the school be supervised by an archeologist and, if any significant discoveries are made, the work should be halted.The dig began because the private elementary school at The Boulevard and Aberdeen avenue plans to excavate in the spring or summer to expand.St George's also has a high school on The Boulevard near Rame- zay road just outside of Westmount.Beatrice Lewis, director of the elementary school, declined to comment Tuesday because she had not yet read the archeological report.Mr Larocque maintains the site is an ancient burial ground based on findings in the last century.In 1898, John Quinn, a gardener employed by the St George's Snowshoe Club, which owned the land from 1886 to 1971, discovered a skeleton there.Two more skeletons were later discovered by then Westmount police chief, James Harrison.In 1899, W.D.Lighthall, West- mount\u2019s chairman of health (and later mayor from 1900-1902) wrote that the skeletons of two men and one woman were Indian, probably Mo- .hawks.Further diggings turned up Ae two more skeletons of a man and a woman, he wrote.The first phase of the latest dig, which began Nov 21, 1989 in the school\u2019s parking lot, uncovered bottles, dishes, nails, mortar, animal bones and shellfish \u2014 items likely linked to activities of the snowshoe club, a preliminary report stated.Site destroyed That same report predicted the second phase of the dig undertaken this summer in the school\u2019s playground would be more promising.But Mr Larocque said that site was destroyed by previous work dating back to the turn of the century.An initial investigation of an area below the playground nearer to The Boulevard showed that the soil was intact and artifacts might be found there, he said.The human bone found might have belonged to one of the Indian skeletons discovered by Whitehall et al.Mr Larocque, a paleontologist and researcher for the ministry of cultural affairs, also recommended that the government undertake an archeological feasibility study of certain areas of Mount Royal.He believes there might be more ancient Indian burial grounds on flat areas of the mountain.While most Indian villages were believed to have been closer to the St Lawrence river, Mr Larocque theorises that there might be villages near burial grounds.So he says perhaps a village might be under a Westmount, Montreal or Outremont park, street, house or greenspace.He says the studies are imperative.\u201cIt is important to undertake studies of the archeological potential of green spaces before those spaces are destroyed.It is very important to avoid the destruction of archeological sites.\u201d The Quebec ministry of cultural affairs financed the dig, with some help from the City of Westmount.\u2018Longtime writer Maillet awarded Prix du Québec The senior of six annual Prix du Québec awards and the highest distinction in the field of literature given by the government of Quebec has been awarded to Westmount author Andrée Maillet, OC.Ms Maillet, 69, was born in Montreal, the

says students are disadvantaged in the current religious school system because the government gives a fixed amount of funding per child, resulting in less money for schools with small and dwindling populations.Linguistic schools will duplicate less, thereby providing Omelets A choice of omelets served The Westmount Examiner, Three candidates on the ballot fr for MCSC \u2018election Î Nov 18°

relations.Mr Buteau could not be traced for comment.Volunteers at work With just over a week remaining before the election, and abroad territory to cover with little money, both candidates have recruited volunteers to pass out pamphlets outlining their platforms.Ms Rodrigue says posters are going up in stores; Mr Hannan is putting up some as well.Both candidates agree teachers should be

Duffield, to much laughter.Mr Duffield asked that a traffic count be made to pinpoint origin and destination of traffic.\u201cThere are legitimate citizens using it inthe daytime,\u201d he said.\u201cI would miss just driving along it to look at the view, specially at night,\u201d said one Oakland avenue resident.\u201cIt would create a very large area that was unpatrolled, too.\u201d When crime prevention officer Gaston Bernier, at local Montreal Urban Community police Station 23, was asked how police might view the change, he said, \u201cI'm not really against it.But it could cut down response time.\u201d Emergency vehicles that answer calls to the east side of the summit from Grosvenor avenue would be forced into taking a long, circuitous route, he explained.The 0.51-kilometre section of roadway that would be eliminated under the proposal would probably cost an initial $50,000 to demolish and $55,000 to plant over.Mr Trent said this could be done using the city\u2019s cadastral fund for creation of new park areas.He wants to know how residents like the idea, and urges them to contact councillors with their opinions.Everyone loves Sammy's because Sammy's

committee of the English sector on Nov 15, beginning at 7:30 pm.It is intended to give voters an idea of the platforms of both parties.Mr Buteau is the sole independent in all six wards.This Sunday, advance polls are open from 10 am to 7 pm.The only polling station in Ward 3 open on that day is at St Monica's School, 6440 Terrebonne avenue in N.D.G.WMA asks city to delay budget A Westmount Municipal Association director asked city council Monday night to delay finalizing the budget for two to three weeks so it could \u201creview environmental needs, responsibilities and possibilities.\u201d Don Wedge wants Westmount to adopt a parallel budget or work plan dealing with environmental issues.\u201cOn July 9 you adopted an environment mission and made supporting commitments necessary to implement it,\u201d Mr Wedge states in a press release.\u201cWe are therefore disappointed that more resolve has not been shown this fall, particularly before the budgeting process.\u201d Some of the subjects he suggests should be in the budget include eliminating air conditioning in new cars to avoid the evaporation of CFCs, encouraging the MUCTC to improve bus service here, increasing tree planting, promoting safe cycling, introducing water metering on a user- pay principle, introducing incentives for electricity use reduction and conducting experiments in low- cost snow clearing.Mercedes -jammed A garage door at 2 Westmount Square crunched down on the roof of acar Friday afternoon, police report.Someone was apparently working on the door at the time that

LL STAs eat Frs Easter-style raw egg hunt played In King George Park on Mat Night Pranksters weren't the only ones roaming the park and slinking around the bushes on Mat Night.There were those who were out to catch the pranksters.They also were hiding around the same bushes.Call them PSOs (public safety officers).It\u2019s the latest board game in the city but it requires four or five dozen eggs to play and a good set of directions.To win, you pick up some tips from Robert Hryciuk, a member of the PSO team.Here's how it goes.\u201cI'm walking around King George Park so many times on Mat Night (Tuesday, Oct 30) that if the wind had blown a leaf out of place I'd have noticed it,\u201d he begins.Mums the word at Westmount greenhouse The city\u2019s 58th annual Fall Chrysanthemum Show is now open to the public following an official reception last night in Vietoria Hall.The exhibit, displayed around a waterfall and stream of goldfish, can be viewed in the greenhouses adjacent to Victoria Hall Monday through Friday 10 am to 8 pm and weekends 10 am to 5 pm.The floral display is expected to last for three to four weeks depending on the condition of the blooms, according to Howard Neill, greenhouse foreman, who arranged the exhibit.A farmer and his family working in the fields is pro- trayed at the south end of the conservatory display which features exhibition-type chrysanthemums as well as four new varieties of commercial potted mums.In the adjoining greenhouses, younger plants are being grown for use in the spring flower show as well as for outside use next summer.By LAUREEN SWEENEY \u201cSuddenly I notice this guy who has a buddy with a black Jeep parked on Forden crescent beside the park.He's showing off, walking around, talking on a telephone.So I walk around too and watch them.Then they stop showing off and I see a Steinberg bag hidden behind a tree.I keep walking.On my way back there's suddenly eight kids and the bag is still there.\u201d This time the officer walks boldly up to it, looks inside, and counts five or six cartons of eggs.He leaves them in place and departs, as do five of the boys.\u201cThe others start running toward the power house, one of them grabbing the bag.I decide to go around and cut them off from the playing field.But when they get up there, there's no bag.It has to be hidden somewhere between the power station or the comfort station, but where?\u201d While he's pondering the question, along comes an older man in his thirties, maybe, walking a dog.One of the boys rushes over to him.The PSO hears the word \u201cside.\u201d It\u2019s all he needs to hear.The bag is at the side, of course.One dozen less The PSO rummages around in the bushes and, lo and behold! there it is.But now it has only four dozen eggs.He re-hides the bag in different bushes and strolls toward the tennis courts.\u201cNow along comes the dog walker.He dives into the bushes looking furiously.Of course he doesn't find anything.I'm laughing so hard.\u201d Eventually the game is up.The PSO takes the bag from the other bushes and parades through the park in front of everyone carrying the bag.\u201cI was laughing and laughing and laughing.They must have been furious, but at least it was 48 eggs less they could do anything with.\u201d Game over at 8:30 pm.At 9:30 it started all over again on the other side of the park.\u201cI'm walking by Belmont crescent and I see five guys get out of a car.Then I hear someone say, \u2018How many more are coming?\u2019 So I think, hey, this is getting interesting.\u201d The group goes to Lansdowne avenue leaving behind a gold-colored Michael D.2) BISTRO-BAR is now open for your convenience soc.eooe0ee, es, to accompany your beverages.DRAUGHT BEER / AVE DES CS JOIE PTE PR od Ld PFursténberg - od * serving 50 assorted imported .e beers from around the world: Italian food, pizza, salads, sandwich- \u201c1304 Greene Ave.corner de Maisonneuve 939-2222 Honda Civic with \u201cempty egg cartons galore\u201d in the back seat.\u201cWhen we catch up with them they have their jackets bulging,\u201d the officer says.It was tempting to give them a big poke.But the officers resisted and ordered the group to leave the city.Pumpkin makes dent Later the car with the group was seen on Murray Hill avenue.\u201cMuch to their distress, someone had thrown a pumpkin at it and made a dent.I told them we had asked them to leave and now, \u2018See what happened?\u2019\u201d\u2019 Curiously, the Mat Night game seems to centre around King George Park every year, PSO Hryciuk concludes.The main aim of the PSO team, he explains, is simply to follow the pranksters around in the hopes of preventing as much mayhem as possible.Other than a fire on the porch of the house on Lansdowne avenue, only one other incident of hijinks was reported.That wastoacarat therear of a house on Mount Stephen avenue decorated with eggs and shaving cream.And that, in an eggshell, was Mat Night 1990.Westmounter co-authors book on wine Westmounter Barbara Leslie is coauthor, with Montrealer Thomas Ba- chelder, of For the Love of Wine.The book, published by Kylix Media Inc, 5156 Sherbrooke street west, covers such topics as grape types, setting up a tasting, matching wine with food and getting the best out of a restaurant wine list.Ms Leslie and Mr Bachelder are editor and staff writer respectively of Wine Tidings magazine, with a national circulation of about 25,000.Mr Bachelder gives wine appreciation courses, and can often be found expounding on the topic at vernissages in his wife Mary Monica Delaney\u2019s Westmount art gallery, Galerie Dan Delaney.The book is printed on recycled paper and is available in Westmount at Le Galet, 4922 Sherbrooke street west, 481-3527.It is priced at $14.95 and personalized, signed copies may be requested.The Westmount Examiner, Artist attends Thursday, Galerie show November 8, 1990 - 15 Thereis a vernissage Sunday at 1 pm for an exhibition of paintings by Claude Alleyn at Galerie Westmount, 4912 Sherbrooke street west.The artist will be present.The exhibit continues to Nov 24.Shown is his acrylic entitled Le Conseil d'Administration.Video to counter Holocaust denials To counter denials that the Holocaust ever took place, an eight-part video program will be distributed throughout Canada in 1993.Westmounter Charles Bronfman recently unveiled the program at a Yad Vashem tribute meeting.The program is designed to be used in high schools as part of their regular curriculum.The tapes will betranslated into five languages and accompanied by teaching resource material.Yad Vashem seeks to educate future generations about the Holocaust.The recent unveiling was at a tribute reception for Westmounter Alex Kotler, a Holocaust survivor who helped raise $500,000 for the Yad Vashem initiative.M7 A LE CLUB DAILY LUNCHEON SPECIALS Tea, coffee & cakes served all afternoon 6.5 i WN 0); 17 du Village JV Elegant party room available for up to 24 people OPEN: Mon-Fri Sat Closed Sundays - 4 Somerville (corner Victoria) 485-2502 11 am - 11 pm 5 pm - 11 pm CASA NOSTRA A GREAT NEW RESTAURANT IN WESTMOUNT!

Nijmegan, Arnhem and elsewhere.In May I discovered that itisa cyclist\u2019s paradise, particularly if one is a senior.There is no real need to pay for an expensive package from a travel company.The Netherlands Tourist Bureau (VVV) has at least 23 tour routes outlined in a brochure available at the consulate.My friend and I chose a seven-day one in the northern province of Drenthe which included luggage transfer each day (take less than we did), plus cycles, simple, clean, private accommodation each night, two meals a day, as well as detailed maps of our route.Everywhere in Holland there are fietspads or special separated bicycle paths, over 10,000 kilometres of them, so that competing with traffic is unnecessary; often they are totally away from cars and roads.Throughout the week one could not help but be aware of incredibly large numbers of Dutch seniors who were cycling, enjoying a day in the country or a short holiday, people looking extremely fit in their sixties, seventies or even eighties, both men and women, The choice of Drenthe proved fortuitous.Despite the flatness of Holland, a boon on a bicycle, the countryside was beautiful and unexpectedly varying.There were large woodland reserves, protected moors, fine, neat agricultural land either with crops or in pastures.The cows were spotless and enormous, with the land seemingly so fertile that many more than we are used to grazed in one field.The Shetland ponies and the sheep were endearing.In the country the houses and barns are often attached, usually with thatched roofs, giving a pleasing look.Sometimes our route took us along a canal but always there was a village or small town about every five kilometres.The villages do not sprawl into the countryside but are i f 3 TRAITEUR = CATERER * 935-3977

lace curtains with flower pots underneath and ceramic pussycats.As one would expect, the attractive gardens look lovingly tended.Even a small village will have something of interest for a visitor, such as the clock museum or the toy museum we encountered.Here we attempted to resuscitate the long- forgotten skills of walking on stilts and riding a unicycle.Our itinerary allowed time for these stops and the marvellous zoo at Emmen was an unexpected bonus.The Dutch are friendly and welcoming and many, if not most, speak English.This can lure one into a \u201c feeling of unwarranted security, as we learned on one occasion when an ignored announcement in Dutch on the train resulted in our car being detached and arriving in, I think, Gouda, rather than Rotterdam where we were headed.Nowhere did there seem to be extremes of wealth or poverty.No doubt the size of the country has Antiquités Phyllis Friedman Quality Antiques and Accessories Interior Design Service and contributed fo a

on the sand dunes over very different rough, scrub growth country.Then, puffed up with our success in the country, on our final day \u2014 with some trepidation \u2014 we rented cycles to tour the beautiful city of Amsterdam.This definitely required more nerve and skill to cope with the traffic and thousands upon thousands of nonchalant bikers but we made it safely - and lived to tell the

death Perfecting the Art of corporate & private entertaining.Let us cater to your next event TELEPHONE FAX (514) 333-8682 333-8688 Denyse Morrow used to have an irrational fear of hospitals, of death and dying.But she has returned from a deeply personal voyage with a graduation certificate and an open Pandora\u2019s Box from which fears were unleashed, then banished.Full of humor, with a ready laugh, that inner voyage is not apparent on the surface.The graduation certificate in gerontology was handed to Ms Morrow Sunday; she has made her valedictorian speech to the class at Collége Marie-Victorin and is setting off down another, three-year path to acquire social work skills.Ms Morrow, who turned 65 in August, intends to carve out a job working with seniors.She has already learned the lingo.There are the wellderly, the well elderly; the swellderly, \u201cwealthy, healthy elderly who vacation in Florida, go on cruises\u201d, and the elderly, \u201cwho think only the swellderly can do that.\u201d Ms Morrow knows different; she knows that things can be done on a limited budget.She moved into Bel- vedere House in 1988 at the lowest point in her life.She had lost her job and had to slash expenses, quickly.Instead of seeking another one, she applied for unemployment insurance and, noticing a bulletin at the Contactivity Centre about Col- lége Marie-Victorin classes \u2014 starting the next day \u2014 rushed to apply.Accepted, she has survived on grants and bursaries, a part-time job earning $40 weekly and Quebec Pension Plan benefits.Logical progression The woman who began her career as a kindergarten teacher appears to have gone from one extreme to another, but it's all quite logical.\u201cI had kids, I could do a lot to upgrade the system,\u201d she said.Now, as she ages, the same applies for gerontology, except Ms Morrow no longer expects instant results, as she used to.Now she hopes to work towards a gentler system of care, where time and understanding are routinely given.She can foresee doing therapeutic work, \u2018assist the elderly in resolving unfinished business, before they die.\u201d Brave words coming from a woman who feared death so.Or she would have considered them brave, before spending 250 hours as a volunteer, fulfilling a course requirement, in the Montreal Convalescent Hospital\u2019s palliative care unit.\u201cT\u2019d never faced death and dying,\u201d she said.\u201cMy parents and friends had heart attacks.Very quick.I hated hospitals with a passion, an irrational fear.\u201d Insisting on doing her school training in palliative care changed her life.\u201cI didn't know I had empathy skills.It's not an ordinary thing,\u201d she said, somewhat wondrously.\u201cPeople responded to me and that was so scary.I wasn't ready for the responsibility they gave me.\u201d Wanted to talk She knew about people wanting to talk before death, to be ready, but had never seen it in action before.Maybe she always listened, like this, with concentration and stillness, before giving thoughtful answers.Her time there \u201cechoes in all the relationships you've had, with parents, grandparents.It tugs at you.Sometimes I'd just come home and cry, or bite someone's head off.\u201d \u2019 It opened the Pandora's Box, she said.Ms Morrow is accessible to learning, as she discovered early on with her first teaching job at Earl Grey School.: \u201cI grew up fast when I was 21.Before that, I was an adolescent.\u201d She recalls going to dances in her youth at Victoria Hall, looking so staid but really a child.But when the teaching began, in a school with a wide variety of ethnic children, some of whom were undernourished, \u201cMy own family seemed, all of a sudden, inward looking.\u201d Looking outward, Ms Morrow sees elderly people in Westmount who never grew up with CLSCs, who believe social assistance is for the poor, who don't know the setup or how to plug into it.Or, if they do, they look after themselves out of pride, refusing to let others \u201cmeddle with their affairs.\u201d Looking inward, as expressed in her valedictorian speech that cen- At your leisure by Alison Ramsey

financiers de 1989 En mars 1990, nos vérificateurs formulaient une opinion sans réserve quant à l'exactitude de la situation financière de la Ville de Westmount au 31 décembre 1989 et de ses résultats d'exploitation pour 1989.Ces états financiers ont fait l'objet d'une présentation détaillée par le Commissaire aux Finances à la séance du Conseil du 17 avril 1990.Un résumé de ces états figure en annexe du présent rapport.L'excédent de 1989 d'un montant de 4 271 421$ provenait de revenus accrûs de 4 023 188$ et d'une réduction de 248 283$ des dépenses par rapport aux prévisions budgétaires initiales.En 1989, le montant des immobilisations s\u2019est élevé à 3519268$ y compris un montant de 437 411$ au chapitre du réseau électrique.Un montant de 1 031 528$ de ces immobilisations a été financé par voie de règlements d'emprunt, 1612 967$, par le fonds de roulement, 828333$, par le fonds général d'exploitation et 46 440$, par le fonds de réserve au titre de parcs et de terrains de jeu.La bonne situation financière de la Ville, en particulier le bas niveau de son endettement à long terme, se traduit par sa notation des obligations.Le service canadien de notation des bbligations haussait récemment la notation de la Ville de Westmount à \u2018AA \u2014 tendance à l'amélioration\u201d, une notation inégalée par aucune autre ville de la province de Québec.Prévisions préliminaires pour 1990 Le budget de 1990 a été préparé sur la base des mêmes hypothèses sous-tendant celui de 1989.C'est pourquoi sur la base des résultats obtenus jusqu'à ce jour et sur la foi des estimations pour le reste de l'exercice, nous prévoyons clore l'exercice 1990 avec un excédent important.Une partie de cet excédent ne pouvait pas être prévue avec exactitude.Ainsi, la réalisation d'importants projets de construction de condominiums a produit des revenus de taxes substantiels qui n'avaient pas été inclus dans le budget de 1990, la Ville n'ayant reçu les certificats d'évaluations de la C.U.M.qu\u2019en septembre 1990.Que ferons-nous de notre excédent accumulé?Lors d\u2019une séance du Comité plénier du Conseil tenue le 3 juillet de cette année au cours de laquelle les directives relatives au budget de 1991 ont été énoncées, il a été décidé que, grosso modo, notre excédent servirait à: \u2014 réduire les coûts d'intérêts futurs en passant lentement à une politique d'imputation fondée sur les sorties de fonds pour les immobilisations; et \u2014 compenser toute forte hausse de la quote-part de la C.U.M.Ainsi, l'excédent servira à amortir l'effet des pressions extérieures sur notre taux au mille, que cela provienne des taux d'intérêt élevés ou du transfert au niveau municipal de dépenses par les niveaux \u201csupérieurs\u201d de gouvernement.Les citoyens bénéficieront de cette politique sous forme de factures de taxes moins élevées et davantage prévisibles au cours des cinq à dix prochaines années.Budget de 1991 Pour 1991, nous changeons notre façon de préparer le budget afin d'éviter à l'avenir l'accumulation d'excédents importants.Nous procédons maintenant de façon beaucoup plus serré par rapport aux méthodes très conservatrices appliquées jusqu'à maintenant.L'Administration se propose aussi d'améliorer son aptitude à prévoir et à gérer le volet revenu du budget, caractérisé dans le passé par beaucoup d'imprécision.Conformément aux directives budgétaires adoptées en juillet, l'augmentation des dépenses de la Ville au chapitre de l'exploitation se situera sensiblement en bas du taux d'inflation prévu pour l\u2019année à venir.En d'autres termes, il y aura une baisse des dépenses en dollars constants.Malheureusement, lesdites directives ne sont pas en vigueur au niveau de la C.U.M.dont, selon des sources dignes de foi, le budget d'exploitation enregistrera une hausse effarante de 10%.Nous ne connaîtrons les chiffres précis qu'après l'adoption de notre propre budget, le budget de la C.U.M.ayant été reporté à la mi-décembre.Cette prodigalité ajoute au fardeau des contribuables de Westmount puisque notre quote-part augmentera de 5.5% en raison de nouvelles constructions dans Westmount, ce qui augmente notre part des évaluations totales de la C.U.M.Selon le montant de l'excédent appliqué à l'amortissement d'une partie de cette augmentation de deux à trois millions de dollars de notre quote-part des frais de la C.U.M., notre taux du mille pour 1991 a toutes les chances d'être quelque peu inférieur à celui de 1990.Nous examinons à l'heure.actuelle notre programme d'immobi- \u201clisations triennal pour 1991 à 1993.Alors qu'une partie de ce programme ;vise à améliorer notre infrastructure municipale.vieillisante, il nous fait aussi tenir compte du patrimoine que constituent les institutions westmountoises unigties comme la i ied Bibliothèque, les serres et le hall Victoria.Rémunération des représentants municipaux élus La loi régissant la rémunération des représentants élus stipule The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, November 8, 1990 - que le Maire doit faire rapport sur la rémunération que chaque membre du Conseil reçoit de la Ville et d'autres organismes inter- municipaux.La Ville de Westmount verse au Maire une rémunération d'un montant de 29 040$, dont 9 680$ à titre d'allocation de dépenses.La Communauté urbaine de Montréal lui verse aussi un montant de 5428$, dont 392$ à titre d'allocation de dépenses.Chaque Conseiller reçoit de la Ville de Westmount un montant de 9 680$, dont 3 227$ titre d'allocation de dépenses.Conclusion Nous prévoyons présenter officiellement le budget de 1991 et le programme d'immobilisations 1991-1992-1993 à une séance spéciale du Conseil prévue le 3 décembre 1990.Au cours de la derniére année de notre mandat courant, nous continuerons de tout mettre en oeuvre afin d'assurer que la Ville de Westmount offre une qualité de vie qui traduise les valeurs, les espoirs et les aspirations de ses résidents et qui tienne compte des moyens et des ressources dont dispose notre Ville.Je vous remercie May Cutler, Maire Ville de Westmount VILLE DE WESTMOUNT FONDS GÉNÉRAL REVENUS ET DÉPENSES EXERCICE FINANCIER

COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 5, 1990 Ladies and Gentlemen of the City Council, Ladies and Gentlemen, Good evening.As you may know, | am required by law to report annually on the general financial health of our City.My report must be presented at least four weeks before the adoption of next year's budget.My comments will touch on three main financial areas: \u201c \u2014 the 1989 financial statements, including the capital expenditures for that year: \u2014 a preliminary forecast of 1990 operational results; \u2014 the overall direction of the 1991 Budget, along with the capital expenditures planned for 1991 to 1993.1989 Financial Statements .On March 1990, our auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on the financial position of the City of Westmount as at December 31, 1989, and the results of its operations for 1989.These financial statements were presented in detail by the Commissioner of Finance at the Council meeting held 17 April, 1990.À summary of these statements is annexed to this report.The 1989 surplus of $4,271,421.arose from increased revenues of $4,023,188.and from a reduction of $248,283.in expenditures over original budgeted amounts.During 1989, \u2018capital expenditures amounted to $3,519,268.including $437,411.for the utility section.Of this amount, $1,031,528.was financed through Loan By-Laws, $1,612,967.through the Working Fund, $828,333.through the General Operating Fund, and $46,440.through the Parks and Playground Reserve Fund.\u2026 The sound financial condition of the City, especially its low level Continued on next page 18 I 26 - The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, November Continued from previous page of long-term debt, is reflected in its bond rating.The Canadian Bond Rating Service has recently increased the rating of the City of Westmount to an AA \u201cimproving trend\u201d, a rating unmatched by any other city in the Province of Quebec.Preliminary 1990 Forecast The 1990 Budget has been prepared in late 1989 using the same premises on which the 1989 budget had been based.Because of this fact, and considering results to date and projections to the end of the year, we expect that 1990 will close with a large surplus.Some of this surplus could not have been forecast with precision.For example, construction of major condominium projects resulted in a boost in tax revenues that were not included in the 1990 budget, as M.U.C.valuation certificates were only received by the City in September 1990.How will we use our accumulated surplus?At a meeting of General Committee of Council on July 3 of this year, during which the guidelines of the 1991 Budget were set, it was decided that, in broad terms, our surplus would be used: \u2014 To reduce future interest costs by slowly moving toa ''pay-as- you-go\" policy for capital expenses; and \u2014 to offset any sharp rise in the M.U.C.apportionment.In this way, the surplus will be used to cushion the effect of exterior pressures on our mill rate, whether from high interest rates or the sloughing off of expenses from \"higher\" levels of Government.Citizens will benefit through lower, more predictable, tax bills over the next five to ten years.1991 Budget For 1991, we are changing our method of preparing the budget to avoid any further build-up of large surplusses.We are now budgeting far more tightly, compared to the very conservative methods used to date.The Administration will also upgrade its skills at estimating and managing the revenue side of the budget, historically an area of much imprecision.Consistent with the budget guidelines adopted in July, the increase in expenses of the City operations will be substantially below the rate of inflation predicted for next year.In other words, we will see a drop in expenses in constant dollars.Unfortunately, the same guidelines are not in force at the level of the M.U.C.where we have it on good authority that the operating budget will rise a staggering 10%.We wil! not know the precise number until after our own budget is adopted, as the M.U.C.budget has been delayed until mid-December.This profligacy is compounded for Westmount taxpayers, as our apportionment will go up by 5.5%, due to new Westmount construction increasing our share of the total evaluations in the M.U.C.Depending on the amount of surplus applied to offset part of this two- to three-million dollar increase in our M.U.C.apportionment, the mill rate for 1991 will most likely be somewhat lower than the 1990 rate.The capital expenditure programme for 1991 to 1993 is currently under review.While a large part of this programme is aimed at improving our aging municipal infrastructure, some consideration is being given to our heritage of unique Westmount institutions such as the Library, the greenhouses, and Victoria Hall.Remuneration of Elected Municipal Representatives The law stipulates that the Mayor has to report on the remuneration each Council member receives from the City and from inter-municipal bodies.As Mayor, | receive from the City of Westmount remuneration of $29,040.of which $9,680.is an expense allowance.| also receive from the Montreal Urban Community an amount of $5,428.of which $392.is an expense allowance.Each Councillor receives from the City of Westmount an amount of $9,680.of which $3,227.is an expense allowance.Conclusion We expect that the 1991 Budget and the 1991-92-93 Capita! Expenditure Programme will be formally presented at a special Council meeting to be held on December 3, 1990.During the final year of our current mandate, we will continue to ensure that the City of Westmount offers a quality of life that reflects the values and aspirations of its residents, yet takes into account their means and resources.Thank you May Cutler, Mayor City of Westmount CITY OF
