[" jakiiag «iii of Westmount your home Thursday, April 21%, 1994 Vol.LXVI \u201cWastmaunt, Quebec =F ASE ™ Segal, 8, from Westmount Park School.By BERNIE O\u2019NEILL The Examiner If special programs at Westmount Park School are to continue this fall, it won't be because of direct intervention from Quebec\u201ds education minister.In a visit to the school last week, Jacques \u2018hagnon said he wants to enhance the kindergarten d nutrition programs being offered in Quebec schools this September.But he said the specific case of Westmount Park is out of his hands.He noted a request for $10 million in additional funding from the School Council of the Island of Montreal (SCIM), part of which would go to the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal.\u201cBut if they want it for more personnel, I'm not really sure this is exactly what we need.\u201d He suggested the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal redirect its own funds if it wants to maintain the extra programs.The cuts at Westmount Park were announced by the PSBGM after a redrawing of the Montreal Island \u201cpoverty map.\u201d The school is expected to lose about $100,000 in SEEING FOR HIMSELF: Education

commissioner Joan Rothman.\u201cI wanted him to see three English-language schools up close,\u201d she said.The minister also spoke with teachers, principals and students at Roslyn and Westmount High.Rothman said she also wanted Chagnon to sec the beneficial effects of nutrition programs.\u201cRight here in Montreal we have the highest level of urban poverty in Canada,\u201d Rothman said.\u201cThis is well documented.Still government officials seem to find this an amazing statistic.\u201d She said poor families need the extra help of break- (See MINISTER, page 2) Pichette report won't be By CAROLINE KUTSCHKE The Examiner Montreal-area mayors and Quebec Municipal Affairs Minister Claude Ryan won't discard the Task Force on Greater Montreal report in upcoming meetings, Westmount Mayor Peter Trent said Monday - although some are not convinced.Members of the Westmount Municipal Association fear that all the work pul into the task force will go to waste.The group is drafting a letter to Ryan deploring the creation of the Table de concertation du Montréal Métropolitain, a discussion group made up of 22 members, including Ryan, and representatives of the MUC and various Montreal-area municipalities.The new discussion group is \u2018dumped: Trent scheduled to meet for this first time this month.\u201cWhy are they downplaying input from the citizens?\u201d asked Don Wedge at the association monthly meeting last week.According to Trent, however, the minister and the mayors will use the Task l\u2018orce report as a reference piece in their discussions.The meetings will likely offset feedback from the public, which so far after the reports release, hasn't been much, he said.\u201cThey (the public) should get exercised about it, because it affects them, il affects their taxes and their municipal structures,\u201d Trent added.\u201cI hope it becomes more of a political issue, but so far, there's been a dearth of interest\u201d (See REPORT, page 2) Chagnon \u2018a shoo-in,\u2019 PQ\u2019s Holden says By BERNIE O\u2019NEILL The Examiner The Liberal party's candidate in Westmount will win easily in the upcoming provincial election, according to the city\u2019s current MNA, Parti Québécois member Richard Holden.Holden made the comment at the annual general mecting of the Montreal region chapter of Alliance Quebec.The meeting was held Sunday at Dawson College in Westmount.\u201cHe\u2019s a shoo-in,\u201d Holden said when asked about the chances for victory of Jacques Chagnon, Quebec's new education minister.Even with the St.Louis riding and Westmount now linked?\u201cOh, ya!\u201d Holden said.Holden was elected under the Equality Party banner in 1989, but was kicked out of the party in 1992 after repeatedly challenging the leadership of then party leader Robert Libman.Holden recently won the PQ nomination in the Verdun riding, which includes his home of Nuns\u2019 Island.Holden made the rare foray into his Westmount riding on Sunday after he was invited to attend the AQ meeting as an observer.\u201cBut if they carry on with the election like this 1 won\u2019t be here much longer,\u201d he said.He left shortly afterward.Indeed, after several hours, much procedural wrangling, debates over the party's constitution, the disqualification of two candidates, and one accusation by a scrutineer of electoral impropriety, new members of the board of directors were finally clected.At one point it was even suggested by AQ member Dermod \u2018Travis that the entire vote be deferred to some future date, over procedural wrangling about deciding the cighteenth spot.There was also a question of whether there were still 30 voting members left in the room for quorum.À show of hands showed 29 members.There appeared to be about 100 members present earlier in the day.The deciding vote was finally held when members wrote their choice on the backs of their yellow voting slips.INDEX Beside the Point Beyond

be taken seriously.(Continued from page 1) The report is being taken seriously by the Montreal mayor, the Conference of Suburban Mayors, the Montreal Board of Trade and the MUC, Trent said.After mecting with the 21 mayors and municipal regional county (MRC) directors and others on the provincial level, Ryan set up the Table on March 25 as a next step after the release of the recommendations of the Task Force.The Task Force document, known as the Pichette report, examined the regionalization of the greater Montreal economy, management and development.Reaction to the report, based on hearings with citizens and organizations, is varied.For the most part, Montreal-area mayors and the Montreal Urban Community approved of it while others off-island railed against it.The new discussion group is an attempt to get elected politicians to agree to one regional plan \u2014 and vision \u2014 of management and development of the Greater Montreal region and structure.With that in hand, Ryan is expected to make a report to Quebec, based on seven topics.These include: the role of the municipality in regional economic development: management orientations; \u2018Continued from page 1) \u2018 fast and lunch programs, early start education and af- ter-school monitoring.This view was echoed by Westmount Park principal Paul Saunders.\u201cWe have a great group of teachers here at West- mount Park,\u201d he said.But when students aren't properly nourished they are difficult to teach.He also emphasized the importance of early start programs.\u201cPre-Ks are not frills, they're essential,\u201d he said.While located in Westmount, Saunders\u2019s school also serves Point St.Charles, Little Burgundy and St.Henri, something Chagnon himself noted, These are some of the poorest areas in English Montreal.The students are bused in.In fact, about 350 of the school\u2019s 505 students fall into the poorest category, according to Marcel St.Jacques, co-ordinator of inner-city and multi-cultural plans for strengthening the region; delineation of the municipal, MRC and administrative regions; permanent structures: and the role of Quebec in the region's development.Ryan himself wants to get the project under way before the next provincial election, when a Parti Québecois government may be elected, Trent added.\u201cMy guess is that the PQ may not be as interested as the Liberal government in regionalization and regionalized structures,\u201d he said.\u201cMontreal is definitely the motor of Quebec economy,\u201d Trent said and as such merits atlention from the Quebec government.\u201cWe want to make sure the citizen\u201ds voice is heard at all levels of these regional governments, and before the fact, not after,\u201d explained past president Tom Thompson.\u201cIt\u2019s great if you've gol a mayor committed to communication with the citizens, as Trent is, but the hard truth is that most of the other suburban mayors don\u2019t get to first base in involving their citizens in regional matters.\u201d Added WMA member Don Wedge, \u201cLook at the disasterous plan they came up with for waste management.It was devastatingly criticized by the citizens as well as by the Quebec governiment\u2019s own review board.6:30 p.m.Westmount Y.M.C.A., 6858 Sherbrooke St.W.Info: 933- 0545.Congregation Shaar Hashomayim; Politics in Quebec with Dennis

Ryan said the aim is to give the elected representatives direct means of finding long-term solutions to the lack of co-ordination in the metropolitan region.According to the statement, he's also urging the MUC and the MRCs to postpone revision or adoption of individual development plans; or proceed, taking into account regional problems.The ministry is also working on its own urban development orientations for the region.Membership in the discussion group includes the mayors of Montreal, Laval, and Longueuil, 12 MRC representatives, three MUC representatives plus the chairman, two Montreal representatives and the mayor, and three representatives from the Conference of Suburban Mayors.Also included will be the government's secretary-general for the Montreal region and a representative from the regional development office.Any concrete action soon is unlikely.A flexible approach by municipal representatives has been agreed to, to form an orientation based on as wide a consensus as possible.Minister visits Roslyn, Westmount High education for SCIM.St.Jacques said it will be May or June before the fate of special programs at Westmount Park is finalized.He raised the possibility of a phasing out rather than cutting off programs, but said it was too early to tell.He noted that Westmount Park will still get some additional funding as a Category 2 school.He also noted the PSBGM could choose to fund the programs directly out of its own budget.This would force the board to cut somewhere el he added, which was the point emphasized by P BGM chairman Alan Butler when the changes at Westmount Park were outlined earlier this month.Chagnon is the MNA for the downtown St.Louis riding, which will be linked with Westmount in the next election.The other PSBGM school slated to lose programs is Bancroft School on St.Urbain Street, which is also in the education minister\u2019s riding.Editorial Dept: 484-5610 \u2026 484-5610 The Westmount Examiner is: Published by

Westmount Examiner, Thursday, April 21%, 1994 - 3 Choquette says his party can bring ethnic groups together But statement on \u2018provocation\u2019 of police by blacks called biased by questioner at meeting By BERNIE O\u2019NEILL The Examiner The Montrealers Party is best suited to bring together the city\u2019s diverse ethnic groups, mayoral candidate Jérôme Choquette said Sunday in a speech at Dawson College.But in outlining his fledgling party\u2019s policies on ethnic communities, the one-time federal justice minister managed to raise an objection from a questioner with his statements condemning police rutality, when he said black community leaders also have to stop their members from provoking the police.Choquette noted that in the 1970s he brought in the province's Charter of Rights and Freedoms.He said it\u2019s been his goal to create a just and modern society for Quebec, and to banish racial prejudice, and all other forms of prejudice.He also noted accusations of brutality by MUC police toward blacks, which he said cannot be endorsed.\u201cYou may count on me and the Montrealers Party to implement in the police force of the MUC an attitude of benevolence and understanding,\u201d he continued.\u201cBut at the same time leaders of Fi) Montreal city councillor Sam Boskey represented the Democratic Coalition at the meeting, which was to feature all the candidates for the Montreal mayoral race, although Mayor Jean Doré and candidate Clement Bluteau failed to attend.In an interview Monday, Boskey said that unfortunately the state of relations between ethnic minorities and the police is always an issue in Montreal, noting what he called a lot of very worrisome cases.\u201cBut raising the bogeyman of provocation: I don\u2019t know where he\u2019s getting that from.\u201d He said the statement seems to suggest black community leaders have direct control over their members.\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s helping things much by saying there's a responsibility black leaders have 5 Jérôme Choquette outlines the Montrealers Party's platform on ethnic communities, as well as English-language services at city hall in a speech Sunday at Dawson

a fit of anger.Her aunt called police when she didn\u2019t retum.An 18-hour hunt in Westmount involving about 90 people, including 50 to 60 police officers, Westmount Public Security officials and

when rates arc going up or down?The answer is to buy when you have to and want to buy.The reason for this advice is that home prices and interest rates work in tandem.They tend to neutralize cach other's diree- tions.When interest rates go up.more homes are available and home prices tend to level off.When interest rates go down, more buyers qualify for loans, demand increases, fewer homes are available and prices inevitably increase.Advertisement CE state By Reg Morden * hh SPRING HAS SPRUNG! 328-330 WOOD: Unique duplex with artistic flair!

suse Page 6- Vol.LXVI, No.16 Thursday, April 21%, 1994 Dire predicti It has now been seven months since Wesunounts teen centre, The Met, opened for business on corner of Sherbrooke Street and Metcalfe Avenue.Initially there was considerable opposition to the centre opening in this location.Fears about noise, vandalism and a lack of adult supervision led some area residents to circulate à petition against the centre.The residents insisted they weren't against the centre, only against the location.The 103-name petition they presented to city council, failed to get the opening stopped.The result has been that most of the concerns expressed by residents have turned out to be groundless.This is not 10 say that residents were entirely wrong to raise the concerns but nevertheless the dire predictions have not come true.Since last September.The Met has proven to be a valuable part of the community.giving Westumount's teens a place to go and something to do.Those opposed were guilty of the \u201cnot in my back yard\u201d syndrome.They.like many of us, are all for teen centres, garbage dumps, group homes for the handicapped.ete.They just don\u2019t want one near them.Councillor Karin Marks, a member of The Met's board, points out that it has been the experience of teen centres in other places \u2014 where things didn\u2019t go as well \u2014 that made some Westmounters nervous.The city was wise to stand behind the project and the money it is directing to the project is is definitely well spent.Public Security director Richard McEnroe says he has not heard of a single ons complaint about the centre.In fact, he says he is very impressed with the professionalism with which the centre is being run.The Met director Bruce Cameron admits there have been a few small problems at the centre but nothing beyond what might be expected.Complaints about smoking outside the doorway have surfaced and dealt with.The location, which some residents said was too close to residences, has turned out to be ideal \u2014 particularly because it is so central.The Lakeshore General Hospital in Pointe Claire was the subject of a major debacle last year when residents found out at the last minute that they would have patients looking down into their back yards from a proposed extension.À bitter fight ensued that risked scuttling the $52-million project, possibly for good.Only efforts by local politicians to smooth things over avoided a serious situation.It is a mistake the hospital, presumably, won\u2019 make again.À Baie d'Urfé group home for intellectually handicapped adults was met with bitter opposition by arca residents who did- n\u2019t want a \u201cbunch of crazies\u201d walking around \u2014 to quote one man.While it seemed like the world was about to end, the home has integrated nicely into the neighbourhood and all seems to be well.What seemed to fuel that situation was paranoia and ignorance.That's too strong for the Westmount example but it is safe 10 say that those opposed are more willing now to give The Met a fair shot.= Craig McKee Choquette should put blame where it belongs At Sunday's annual general meeting of Alliance Quebec, Montreal mayoral candidate Jérôme Choquette told the assembled Anglophiles that leaders of the black community should tell blacks to be careful not to \u201cprovoke\u201d the police.In choosing to single out blacks for this cautionary suggestion, Choquette is doing what we see done all too often.He is blaming the victim for being the subject of unjust treatment.It seems altogether out of place for a polticial leader and would-be mayor of Canada\u2019s second-largest city to be telling blacks that they should avoid provoking police - as if everything would be fine if we simply let the police do their jobs.Also, to suggest that blacks are such a homogeneous group that one word from their leaders is all that\u2019s needed to make everyone fall into line is simplistic and unfair.And if any sort of provocation of police does take place it isn't be hard to see why.The examples of unnecessary attacks on blacks by police are well documented and speak for themselves.The recent acquittal of Const.Allan Gossett in the Anthony Griffin shooting just brings this to the forefront of the city\u2019s consciousness all over again.- Craig McKee You say No wonder we don't trust politicians The claim by the Quebec government, the Bloc Québécois and the federal Liberal party \u2014 that Bill 86 of the Quebec National Assembly restores freedom of expression in Quebec \u2014 is false.Section 17 of Bill 86, amending Article 58 of the Quebec French Language Charter, is a hypocritical attempt to avoid the United Nations Human Rights Committee ruling of April 8, 1993, The UN ruling stated Canada was violating article 19 (freedom of expression) of the UN Charter of individual rights and freedoms, The UN ruling said that any denial of the use of the language on commercial signs is a violation of a fundamental freedom.our M.P.| | David Berger | says.Wanted \u2014 budding young entrepreneurs Yes there is an alternative for those students who have not been able to find themselves a summer job.If they can\u2019t work for someone else, why not be their own boss and create their own business?The Government of Canada in co-operation with the Federal Business Development Bank, the National Bank and the Royal Bank of Canada is willing to help by providing young entrepreneurs with a $3,000 interest-free loan to help gel their ideas off the ground.This summer the government will make available over $1 million for enterprising young students.In 1993, 1.106 student business loans were awarded.creating our Mayor Peter F Trent says.The Aftermath April is the cruellest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain.- T.S.Elliot he first signs of spring in Westmount are the \u201cfor sale\u201d signs.They push up through the matted lawns even before the crocuses.While a hardy perennial, these signs have no roots and consequently get around alot.And every year some Westmounters worry about their proliferation.Are there more than last year?Is it a trend?In their minds is a ready association between real estate signs and an upcoming provincial election.And every year I watch the snow retreat from the sunny areas of our garden, to remain as a crusty hold-out in the shade, covered with a tarry deposit \u2014 the accumulation of six months of air pollution.The winter's jetsam of litter strewn along the verges of our streets could be the subject of a short archaeological dig.Nearer to home, there was February's newspaper in sodden sections, yellowed and unread, nestled in the flower beds.There is little chance that the federal Liberals will correct this injustice.The Bloc Québécois, of course, supports the subjugation of English, while telling the world what a wonderful place Quebec is for English Canadians.If that\u2019s true, why have some 300,000 English-speaking people left Quebec during the past 15 years?Meanwhile, the Reform Party has not exposed the conspiracy of silence, in Parliament, to cover up Canada\u2019s refusal to respond to the UN.Is it any wonder Canadians have no trust left for their politicians?Maurice J.King ROCKBURN, QUEBEC employment for 2.412 young persons.Proposals for everything from landscaping companies to summer hockey camps were accepted last year, and were very successful.To be eligible for the business loan, budding entrepreneurs must be full-time students at high school, CEGEP or university who plan to return next fall.An application accompanicd by a business plan is then submitted to the FBDB for consideration.Once the FBDB has examined the proposal and decided it is feasible, successful applicants are awarded a loan of up to $3,000.Loans must be repaid by Oct.7, 1994, with a $100 bonus if repaid before Sept.9.Applications will be processed on a first come first served basis.I invite students interested in the program to contact my office, the Canada Employment Centre or the Federal Business Development Bank directly at 1-800- 361-2126.But, do it soon, because from my experience, there is no shortage of budding young entreprencurs with good ideas.As the sun got brighter, we started to sweep the grit of winter from our paths like wiping sand from still-sleepy eyes.I cursed each slat of snow fence that slipped out as | rolled up the bundle, along with yards of scratchy burlap.Each winter, I also put down coconut matting on the steps.I'm really not sure what good it does, bul it long ago became part of the ritual.All of this paraphernalia of winter pro- lection gets stored in our (wo-car garage that houses no car, keeping company with assorted garden implements and bicycles rusting away until spring.All across Westmount you see snapped branches \u2014 casualties of this year\u2019s heavy snow.Retaining walls have now a raked angle.The underground bumping and grinding of frost have cracked water mains like so many straws.Some pavements have been shoved around as if they were minor tec- onic plates.The city itself looks as if it came out of a battle.A battle with nature.It was a tough winter, especially for our public works department, what with burst water pipes and some 273 centimetres of snow.The average snowfall is 214 cm, yet it can range from 85 cm in the winter of 1979-80 to an incredible 413 cm in \u201870- 71.Even Moscow gets only 160 cm on average.To quote Elliot again: \u201cwinter kept us warm, covering earth in forgetful snow.\u201d And to think that lilacs, in these parts, are over a month away.

people who inhabit the recreation office.I was told backtracking wouldn't be possible as all the records had been moved to the basement of Victoria Hall for the duration of the renovations there.Innocently, 1 suggested they just check on the computer.I was met by a pair of blank stares.\"Computer?\" two voices chimed.\"Do you see a computer?\u201d A close examination of the surroundings

that I am smarter than they are \u2014 a simple act of faith.A friend once told me that computers have less real intelligence than an earwig.While they perform amazing tasks at very high speeds, they can only do what they're told.My computer is constrained by the information I am willing to give it.It can't improvise and is, therefore, unlikely to attempt a coup or end up ruling the world.Computers can't create data, but, by golly, they can manage them.I watched the recreation and athletics people shuffle through piles of registration forms, sorting, stacking, counting, transcribing.One little personal computer with a hard disk and a database program can keep track of masses of information.Like, for instance: name, address, phone number, date of birth, teams played on last year, positions played, other team members, coaches, payment made or owing .and ID card numbers.Sure, someone has to enter the data, but once in, they can be called up by any category.Instant

tell them to.A computer at athletics could be electronically linked to a computer at the Public Security Unit.The number on an ID card would be all that was necessary to track the owner.Really lost cards could be replaced for a minimal fee.Of course, it might adversely affect the poly-annual trek to the arena and the regular cash outlay for yet another cluster of ID cards, not to mention that fun outing to the photo booth in Plaza Alexis Nihon, I have to get over to the arena to pick up my family's new set of recreation cards.Maybe this time I'll get organized and remember to put the

Westmounter struggles to keep animal spay/neuter service afloat By ANGELA M.LEE The Examiner Westmount resident Sylviane Duval says she is caught in the undertow of the SPCA\u2019s mega- fundraising prowess as she struggles to keep her new spay/neuter service afloat in a swell of financial uncertainty.MinimAnimal, Montreal's only pet fix-it service, is headquartered on Metcalfe Avenue and has been in operation since February.\u201cOriginally my aim was $30,000,\u201d laments Duval, a former SPCA fundraiser, \u201cbut now with only $60 in the account, I'll be glad to get $5,000.\u201d The services provided by this non-profit organization are directed entirely at low-incomers and senior citizens.People having a maximum annual income of $15,000 are eligible for a 50-per- cent discount while seniors living on fixed pensions, and welfare recipients, can admit Fluffy or Fido for free.Prices range according to the sex and size of your pet.\u201cA Great Dane could cost easily up to $150 or so,\u201d estimates Duval.The economic drought has also plagued MinimAnimal since its creation, which was inspired by the neediness of her target market.Raising money at shopping centre kiosks for the SPCA was child\u2019s play for Duval who now considers herself lucky if she can rake in a fraction of that past bounty for her own animal-welfare service.\u201cAt Le Faubourg Sainte-Cather- ine for instance, under the SPCA logo, we were able to pick up $800 over a two-or-three-day period.But with this logo we picked up only $82,\u201d says Duval.\u201cWe need publicity.I have called the SPCA to find out if we could use their logo with something that says, \u201cthis program is approved by the SPCA,\u201d just so people could see a logo that they could recognize instead of coming up to a table of complete strangers.She's still waiting for an answer.Tiptoe, a frisky tortoiseshell- coloured Westmounter, is no stranger to Montreal\u2019s kiosk circuit.She is one of Duval's three cats who is considered the public relations paw of the organization, accompanying her owner on every fundraising junket.Brackell and Mittens are the other two feline members of the Duval family.The black-and- white long-haired counterparts are silent partners preferring to stay out of the spotlight.Tough economic times make it difficult for people to afford basic veterinary care.\u201cWhen I was working kiosks for SPCA, a ton of people would come up to me and say, \u2018I can\u2019t afford to get my pet fixed,\u201d says Duval.Currently the SPCA only spays or neuters pets coming from its shelter.However, most Montreal- ers obtain their animals from pet stores and friends with extra kittens or puppies.Westmount is not a problem area for animal overpopulation.\u201cPeople here are usually educated and wealthy enough to have their animals fixed,\u201d says Duval.Duval\u2019s short-term goal is to spay or neuter 500 animals in her first year of operation.In the long run she hopes to encourage pet owners to continue veterinary care after initial contact with the six certified veterinarians presently affiliated with MinimAnimal.The vets provide owners with preliminary vaccinations and a follow-up spay or neuter operation conducted on their premises.Duval\u2019s administrative services are donated and the organization is run entirely by volunteers.Her next kiosk appearances are scheduled for April 28 through April 30 at Plaza Cote des Neiges and at Westmount family day on May 28.Duval needs an Macintosh computer, operating funds and 50 volunteers.Interested candidates can contact Duval by writing to 168 Metcalfe Avenue, Box 3669, Westmount, Quebec, H3Z 2H4.ommonwealth Society holds essay competition Selwyn House student Jonathan Verral finished first in

Municipal Association survey, finalized at the group\u2019s annual general meeting last week, will arrive at 900 Westmounters\u2019 doors in about two weeks.Several changes were made to the survey during the meeting, including one asking whether respondents approve of the city hiring an employee mandated to look after culture.The WMA will wait until June before compiling the information, e said past-president Tom Thompson, and members plan to meet in early August to analyze and review the results.The association will reveal its results to the public by the end of August or early September, Thompson said.The WMA hopes the survey will provide a guideline for the future of Westmount, which he said, is better than the public having no voice.\u201cIt\u2019s better to have that,\u201d

BOOKS?Mediation, not confrontation, is emphasis at new centre After having kids, young Westmounter adopts a new ®his week's Westmounter By BERNIE O\u2019NEILL The Examiner They say having kids makes you see the world in a whole new way.That's the case for one young lawyer who has adopted a fresh approach to her profession \u2014 one that eases the potentially long and painful process of divorce settlement through mediation.\u201cIt\u2019s so much better than going to court,\u201d says Westmount native Hélène de Kovachich in describing her new venture, a multidisciplinary family mediation centre.The former tax litigation lawyer has teamed up with a notary and two psychologists, who together put the emphasis on communication.While it may not be for everyone, de Kovachich says mediation can be faster, less costly, and less harmful for the parties involved.Psychological impact De Kovachich says having kids gave her a new outlook and sparked her interest in this new approach to her profession, one that's already gained wide acceptance in the United States.While similar clinics exist in Laval and op the South Shore, the René Laennec Family Mediation Centre is the first bilingual, multidisciplinary centre of its kind in Montreal, she said.The centre opened last month, and is taking clients in both matrimonial and some commercial cases.De Kovachich's partners in the project arc notary Marisa Espos- ito, and psychologists Catherine Desjardins and Susan Berming- ham.Esposito is also returning to work after having children.nr you talk about a divorce setff®ment you have to think about the impact psychologically on the family,\u201d de Kovachich says.A messy court battle can leave scares for the combatants that never heal \u2014 a situation made worse when children are involved.They can be hurt in the court fight, or by the bad blood left over.\u201cIn a normal setting lawyers will incite the fight,\u201d she says.\u201cThey enhance the conflict.\u201d But in mediation the emphasis is on getting the two parties to sit down together and discuss alimony payments, family patrimony, dividing up the pensions, the house, the cars, the cottage, and so on.The lines of communication are renewed, de Kovachich says.\u201cThey become used to the idea of talking.\u201cWhen they set foot in this office it\u2019s to de-dramatize divorce and to encourage people to communicate.\u201d She said some fear they will lose out in mediation, ending up with a less equitable settlement.Clients are encouraged to continue to retain their individual lawyers.She said in other cases it becomes clear the partics need marital counselling, not legal help \u2014 a situation that can be handled by the centre's psychologists.Raising a family De Kovachich grew up in Westmount, attended Villa Ste- Marcelline School and Brébeuf College, then studied law at L'Université de Montréal.In the mid-'80s she articled with the law firm where she would meet her husband, then worked for the government, and served briefly as a political attaché.By 1990 she was working as a tax litigation lawyer in Montreal.After all her early accomplishments de Kovachich, now just 31, took a break from the legal profession two years ago to spend more time raising her family.She and husband Robert Charl- ton, also a Westmount native, have three children: Kristina, 6, Alexandre, 3, and Nicolas, 15 months.Learned from a Westmounter While de Kovachich\u2019s multidisciplinary centre may bc unique in Montreal, she noted that she got her training in mediation from another Westmount lawyer, Phillip Shaposnick, who has been pleading cases since 1959, Shaposnick and his wife, Bernice, a social worker and trained mediator, have been employing \u201calternative dispute resolution\u201d techniques for years, he said.In addition to operating his practice Shaposnick is currently teaching mediation courses to lawyers through the continuing education branch of the Quebec Bar Association.He estimated as much as 80 per cent of the cases now in the Quebec court system are marital cases.Changes to the Civil Code expected to take effect in June will allow Quebec's judges to request that the parties seek mediation first, he said.Judges will be trying to channel marital, commercial, and even environmental disputes into the hands of mediation lawyers, he said, to free up time in backlogged courts.\u201cI think you'll see an explosion of recourse to mediation once this comes into effect,\u201d he said.T's a fast growing field and de Kovachich and her partners appear to have got in on the ground floor + Using mediation techniques, notary Marisa Esposito (left) and lawyer Hélène de Kovachich help couples through the painful process of divorce.Photo by CLIFF SKARSTEDT

Tasha Lackman and her backpack head to Guyana, South America in August.Photo by CAROLINE KUTSCHKE Westmount teen heads to Guyana for Youth Challenge International By CAROLINE KUTSCHKE The Examiner University of Waterloo student and Wesunounter Tasha Lackman will spend a summer and fall unlike that of most of her peers when she embarks this August on a three-month real-life learning experience in Guyana, South America.Lackman, 18, was recently accepted into the Youth Challenge International project with about 45 other Canadians.She returned to Westmount last week to drum up financial support from friends, neighbours and local schools.YC! promotes young people's active, responsible and continuing participation in critical issues of local and global development.It's devoted to principles of community service, scientific and medical projects, and fostering personal growth.Projects are undertaken in remote or developing regions in co-opera- tion with local communities and organizations, based on their requests for aid.Lackman\u2019s group, joined by about 40 youths from Australia, Costa Rica and Guyana, will work on community projects like screening for cataract surgery.They'll also likely be doing manual labour in building infrastructures, including helping Guyans build homes, and medical and community centres from scratch, After a \u201cbrutal\u201d selection process, including a weekend trip comparable to boot camp, Lackman says she's ready to go.\u201cI know what's expected because it prepared you for the unexpected and how to deal with time differences and a different concept of being,\u201d she said in an interview last week.\u201cI think it's a worthwhile project,\u201d added the first-year university student, who will spend the summer preparing for the trip.Not only do participants aid in international development, the YCI mandate is to give back to the community, she said.It also gives a growth experience for youths, important especially during a recession and when most are feeling desolate, she added.\u201cIt\u2019s allowing Canadian youths to develop and grow.\u201d \u201cWe probably have more to learn from them than they do from us,\u201d added Lackman, who speaks Spanish and French.The student in Environment and Resource Studies and in Latin American Studies, is no stranger to community activism.While the bug kicked in at university, Lackman said she\u2019s been interested in social activism and Latin American life since high school when she took a six-week trip to Costa Rica.\u201cThe things that I saw while there rcally amazed me,\u201d said Lackman, who helped build homes there under a program called Global Roots.\u201cTo realize people didn\u2019t have houses - such a basic thing.They had never seen stairs.\u201d After Dawson College and being news editor of the school newspaper, she became taken in university with \u201crcally outrageous\u201d events like the clear-cutting in Clayquot Sound in B.C., she said.\u201cYou realize things are happening in the world and if you want to change il, you have to do something because no one else will,\u201d Lackman explained.She\u2019s also helping bring three Mexicans from the Chiapas movement to Waterloo under the Mexican Solidarity Network.That project hit a stumbling block when one of the invited guests, Henrique Prez Lopez, president of the Human Rights Centre in Chiapas, was arrested April 10.Lackman said he\u2019s believed to have been jailed by the Gardias Blancas \u201cChicomselo\u201d that has links to the Mexican army.There is no reason for his arrest, which violates Articles 3 and 5 of the Human Rights Convention, she added.The network is calling for an immediate investigation into his arrest.Lackman plans to raise most of the money for her trip through events in her university community.But in return for funding, she\u2019ll also be giving lectures on development at three local schools, including Westmount High School and Trafalgar, when she gets back.\u201cWe're an important resource and it\u2019s important to pay for us because we're going to do important work there,\u201d she said.YCI is a non-profit, non-go- vernmental organization run mostly by volunteers.Participants in the project like Lackman must raise a minimum of $3,500 to cover half the cost of the projects they'll be working on.The remainder of costs are covered by the Canadian International Development Agency, Canadian corporate sponsors and individuals.YCl is a charitable organization and donations are tax deductible.Investing in your wardrobe Always keeps you in style Alterations - Remodelling Mr.& Mrs.Molnar, Custom Tailors 4823 Sherbrooke St.W., suite 245 937-3223 (corner Grosvenor) (est.1958) A Hés= chorale = nouvelle Sde= montréal 3 &J Brock McElheran, Musical Director Presents REQUIEM by VERDI Monday, May 2, 1994 at 8:00 p.m.Westmount Baptist Church Sherbrooke W.(corner Roslyn) Tickets $10 & $7 Info.486-3669 WESTMOUNT RECYCLE!

Society of Montreal is celebrating a century in existence with an exhibition that includes five works by Westmounters on display at the Walter Klinkoff Gallery in Montreal.Fifty-five paintings out of 117 were chosen to adorn the Victorian walls of the prestigious Ste.Catherine Street institution.\u201cI've been doing collage for a long time,\u201d says Westmount artist Marilyn Lamond.\u201cCollage is my favourite.\u201d Lamond's thematic work, entitled \u201cDoorways\u201d is a muted multicoloured interaction of torn tissue fragments conveying warm and cool harmony.Lamond has been a member of the society for the past seven years.\u201cI like colours.You get these wonderful effects of shadow and light and dark,\u201d she says.The Women\u2019s Art Society began in 1894 as the Montreal Branch of the Women\u2019s Art Association of Canada, which had its headquarters in Toronto.It wasn't until 1906 that the independent Women's Art Society of Montreal was formed.Over the years the Society has grown and evolved, but its basic aims have not changed: the encouragement of a higher standard of workmanship, and promotion of a more general interest in, all branches of art.The modest Lamond also indulges in watercolor.\u201cI've only been painting for about the last eight years,\u201d says Lamond.\u201cStill Life With Squashes\" is another Westmount entry painted by Pauline Shapiro in the gouache medium.This opague composition makes the mouth water with thoughts of a bountiful harvest.Margarite Millette- Trudeau's oil painting of \u201cRue Tupper\u201d is another West- mount jewel that captures the architectural flavour of one of Montreal\u2019s most noteworthy streets.Rue Tupper's colours are used to convey a happy and homey feeling.Long-time Westmount resident Nancy Erdrich has returned to her love of painting after a 30-year absence.And the oil painting called \u2018The Boats\u201d was worth the wait.Three rowboats are moored to a dock jutting out into a shimmering lake of contrasting colours.Another Westmount gem squirreled away into a corner of the gallery is Ruth Crabtrec\u2019s \u201cMurray Park Dog Run.\u201d \u201cI was inspired by the park,\u201d says Crabtree.\u201cI find dogs to be appealing.They're almost like children.\u201d Crabtree who is an avid dog lover and devoted dog owner prefers to paint winter scenes.The lively pastel-coloured snowy park is pulsating with running dogs and chitchatting owners.\u201cWhen 1 paint I forget everything else,\u201d says Crabtree.Today the principal activity of the Women\u2019s Art Society is their program of weekly lectures and music recitals, held in the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.Chagnon urged to ask Ottawa for computer funds By BERNIE O\u2019NEILL The Examiner Quebec is being urged to seek funding from Ottawa so that students in Quebec can access a special computer network.In a letter to Education Minister Jacques Chagnon, the president of the Quebec School Boards Association says the fledgling School Net computer network, designed especially for students, is expanding everywhere in Canada except Quebec.Peter Riordon urged Chagnon to intervene personally to get Ottawa to come up with the funds to expand the network here.In 1992-93 School Net linked just 12 schools across the country.But the number has grown to 1,000, according to Riordon.This represents about 6 per cent of Canadian schools.The project is being funded by Ottawa to the tune of $1.6 million.It\u2019s a joint initiative of the federal government and provincial ministries of education, other than Quebec, along with private companies involved in computer networking and the CANET group.The computer network could be used by teaching staff and students to access information sources in English and French, according to the QASB president.\u201cThis communication network does not just serve 10 promote educational activities,\u201d Riordon says.\u201cIt also contributes to acadeggic success in primary and secon fi} school by affording direct computer access to files in the two official languages made available by different information centres across Canada.\u201d Chagnon is the MNA for St.Louis riding, which will be merged with Westmount in the upcoming provincial election.The QASB (formerly the QAPSB or Quebec Association of Protestant School Boards) includes the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal, which has three schools in Westmount \u2014 West- mount Park, Westmount High and Roslyn.l'Uni Gers sar al- he ed a ng ir- rs = tb.Vv Women discus By ANGELA M.LEE The Examiner A performance of The Survey Show by Westmount playwright Sarah Gersovitz last Friday provided the setting for an informal conversation with a distinguished panel of women: a curator, art historians and practising artists.Close to 170 people squeezed into a humid third-floor room at the Visual Arts Centre to hear the à panelists and see the one-act satirical production, a work reflecting @ the supportive roles of women ar- & tists to their male counterparts.¥ Ann Page directed the play, with a d cagadrawn from Westmount's 4 Driliis Personac.\u201cThere's been a great birth of a number of women artists,\u201d said Æ panelist Catherine Bates, chairwoman of Dawson College's Fine ; Arts Department.\u201cBut we have a © long way to go.\u201d The play, set in a public art gal- « lery exhibition hall, welcomes a + varied cast of characters 10 a survey show covering women artists over a 100-year period.It also went a long way to illustrating changes in perspectives of women \u201c artists.In the play, volunteer guide Mrs.Watterson infuriates a group of visitors when she limits her commentary to the men behind the women artists.Her tour begins with; \u201c.the two women who were fortunate enough to have been included in the Impressionist circle dominated by the great Edourd Manet.Manet was born in Paris in 1832, into a wealthy upper- middle class family\u2026many of whom were lawyers.\u201d Another character, Anais, tells Mrs.Watterson about Sally Michel, the wife of Milton Avery, who had supported both her husband and daughter working as an illustrator for the New York Times.The play ends full circle when Mrs.Waterson gives up her traditional guide job to museum director Mr.Duncan.He starts the tour with the history of Edourd Manet.With the first mention of Manet's name, the lights gradually dim until the stage is in total darkness.\u201cYou don't find the artist out by herself without the job behind her = s their role in the art world 4 Director Ann Page, with Dramatis Personae cast, introducing The Survey Show last Friday.that pays the bills,\u201d said Bates, who is also a painter and a poet.\u201cThey almost all have supportive jobs such as I do teaching.You don\u2019t find the wife of a woman artist.\u201d Bates also drew a parallel between the ordination of women in the Anglican Church, 1,994 years after Mary gave birth.and the present role of female artists in our society.\u201cThat's an incredible state of affairs,\u201d she said.\u201cWe're behind at least ten to 15 years,\u201d Bates said, adding, \u201cI know that if everyone in this room tonight is as energized as they seem to be, then we've made a step forward.One step at a time.Not two steps back.\u201d During the panel discussion, she held up a copy of the defunct

Montreal Star from 1973 and read aloud the headline of an art review article \"Four Men And A Girl.\" \"We haven't changed.I'm years behind where ! should be if I were a man,\" she said.\"There's some resentment in that.\u201d According to panelist Ingeborg Hiscox, director of the Stewart Hall Art Gallery in Pointe Claire, the art world de-evolved after the crash of the market in the mid \u201880s, compromising creative experimentation for a safer and conservative flair.\u201cPeople will have to be really good.I don\u2019t think things will get any easier,\u201d Hiscox said.Citing Germany's reunification as an example, Hiscox added women, including artists, have become the scapegoats of poor economic times.Women of the former East German Republic had ample facilities geared to meet their needs, including daycare centres, she continued, adding the facilities disappeared in the wake of an unemployment tidal wave that crippled the new Germany.That forced women back into their traditional supportive roles as any existing jobs went to men, she said.\u201cWe can't jump over ourselves,\u201d added Hiscox, a ceramist and painter with a long-held interest in calligraphy.\u201cBut we can be assertive.The future is here.Women have more confidence when they are committed to their work.That still doesn\u2019t mean that they don\u2019t go home and look after the baby.But they don't let themselves be pushed into corners.\u201d The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, April 21%, 1994 - 15 Series of concerts to be held at St.Matthias\u2019 Church St.Matthias\u2019 Church in Westmount is hosting a series of four spring concerts to be held on Tuesday evenings.The first concert, next week, features the works of Montreal composer Robert Frederick Jones.The Vanier Choir will perform a

mark the major festivals in the church calendar.Jones was commissioned to write a spiritual piece for renowned alto Meg Sheppard.She will perform the piece whose words are a Sanskrit prayer.The final work was commissioned by St.Patrick\u2019s Barish to celebrate the conclusion of its extensive renovations.DIVORCE IS PAINFUL but it need not be adversarial.A divorce mediator can help a couple work
