The Westmount examiner, 15 avril 1999, jeudi 15 avril 1999

[" Tenants at 4300 ecry censorship BY WAYNE LARSEN appeared in last week's Examiner.The report of the City of Westmount\u2019s legal case against the large apartment complex over air duct maintenance was not what upset most people, but rather the fact that they had a hard time getting to read it.According to more than a dozen tenants who called The Examiner office last Friday, approximately 150 copies of the April 8 issue disappeared from both the east and west wing lobbies of 4300 de Maisonneuve shortly after delivery last Thursday.This led many to charge that the papers were purposely removed to keep tenants from reading about the current court case.\u201cIt\u2019s outright censorship,\u201d said one woman who asked not to be identified, fearing personal retaliation from the buildings management.\u201cThey shouldn\u2019t be allowed to take our newspaper away from us.\u201d \u201cA lot of people in this building are quite elderly and have trouble getting around outdoors,\u201d said another tenant who also asked that his name not be published.\u201cThey can\u2019t go down the street to pick up The Examiner\u2014they depend on it being here in the lobby.\u201d According to several other tenants\u2019 account of the incident, a few copies were recovered from a dumpster by a tenant and put back in the lobby, but they also quickly disappeared.Te of 4300 de

committee honourary chair David Lank with a $125,000 donation from the City of Westmount.This is intended to match the $125,000 to be raised within the community by a committee chaired by Lillian Léonard.The remaining $600,000 is expected to come from a corpo- \u201crate fundraising effort headed by Lank.If all goes according to schedule, the $850,000 worth of renovations to the 92-year-old

building back to life,\u201d said Trent, whose involvement in the search for a suitable use for the station dates back to his days as a city councillor.\u201cWe\u2019re happy to close the chapter on

Examiner New workshops at Visual Arts Centre The Visual Arts Centre has announced three new workshops for mature students as part of its Spring 1999 session.The first is \u2018The Italian Renaissance\u201d with Honor Robertson, which starts on May 4 and will run for four consecutive Tuesdays from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m.As nature reawakens in the spring, it is a fitting time to revisit the art of the Renaissance, when nature once again became a legitimate, even revered focus for the artist\u2019 energies.Students will explore the work of several painters and discuss their approaches.The price of this course is $30.Artist Homeira Mortazavi will teach \u2018From Realism to Abstraction\u2019 on Thursday, May 20 from 9 a.m.to noon, guiding students through the difficult transition from representational to abstraction.This is a hands-on workshop where the student will start with realistic imagery and, using a playful approach in a serics of structured exercises, move towards abstracting shapes.This course is $32, plus materials.As its title suggests, \u2018Drawing En Plein Air\u2019 with Helga Schlceh will be an on-site session in the stimulating surroundings of Mount Royal and Beaver Lake.The diverse landscapes of this location has cnormous appeal for drawing and watercolour.This will take place on Tuesday, June 1 from 10:30 a.m.to 3 p.m.and costs $48 plus materials.For more information, call the Visual Arts Centre at 488-9558.WYO to play Victoria Hall April 25 The Westmount Youth Orchestra, under the direction of Mark Simons, will be giving its year-end concert of classical music on Sunday, April 25 at 3 p.m.in Victoria Hall.This concert marks the greatly- anticipated return of the orchestra to Victoria Hall, which has been closed for renovations since last spring.The building has been lovingly restored and the concert hall is back to its original splendour.There is a seating capacity of 400, and scats arc available on a first come first served basis.Doors open at 2:30 p.m.The programme will highlight the \u20181812 Overture\u2019 by Tchaikovsky, \u2018The Poet and Peasant Overture\u2019 by von Suppé and excerpts from Mozart's \u2018The Magic Flute\u2019.One of the winners of the WYO concerto competition, Tobie Miller, will be the flute soloist in Telemann\u2019s \u2018Concerto for Flute and Orchestra\u2019.The WYO is open to youth throughout the island of Montreal.Rehearsals are on Saturday mornings at Victona Hall.Some positions are still available.For all information concerning both the concert and auditions, contact the orchestra at 486-2813.Masters offer a love for swimming There arc thousands of adult swimmers in Quebec.Between 20 and 90 years of age, they practice their favourite sport with their friends several times per weck, and on occasion measure themselves against their peers in friendly competitions.We cali the \u2018Master Swimmers\u2019, or \u2018Maitres-nageurs\u2019.Many of those who have tried to swim alone during \u2018lap-swim\u2019 have said that it is much casicr to acquire the discipline to train within the context of an organized group.Some say they have joined the Masters\u2019 Club to get fit, burn calories, firm muscles or improve their cardio-vascular level.Others swim for pleasure and relaxation, or for the social aspect of this group activity.Even others, like triathletes, cyclists and runners, usc swimming to cross- train or to complement their sport.The coach gives valuable advice and lots of encouragement, and the result is highly perseverant swimmers who agree that swimming is a safe, inexpensive and complete sport.The only prerequisite to become a Masters\u2019 Swimmer is to have a love of swimming.Those who feel unsure about joining are invited to give it a try in one of the Masters\u2019 Clubs in their region.The encrgy of swimmers could very well be contagious.Come and meet them and see for yourself how Masters\u2019 swimming Josters friendship and well-being.For more information on the Westmount YMCA Master Swimmers, contact Sylvie Lépine at 939-6479.: Get involved in the Westmount Healthy E City Project by calling

degree or does a young adult travel through barren jobland in search of a future?Where does a teenager go?Frequently the route to successful opportunities have been with the university degree attached.Current youthful concerns have realigned the educational direction and the arrow is pointing more and more towards colleges.Public colleges, technical institutes, university colleges and CEGEPs in Canada are dominating students\u2019 choice.Why the change?\u201cYou go to university if you want a challenge, you go to community college to prepare yourself for real life\u201d This parent\u2019s quote, taken from The Macleans Guide to Canadian Colleges 1999, reveals the rising trend in post-secondary education.Since this guidebooks publication in January, its sales have surpassed The University Ranking magazine many times over and it is now in reprint.This onc-ycar project was orchestrated by Anne Dowsett Johnston, assistant managing editor of Maclcan\u2019s Magazine.Along with her team, she has packaged a 160-page comprehensive study of 88 community technical institutes and university colleges, plus the most popular majors of 49 Quebec CEGEPs.Information was gathered through a questionnaire to 137 institutions and detailed comparisons were studied so that accurate and pertinent information would be disclosed to the readers.That ancient misconception that colleges were for people who couldn\u2019t make the grade in high school is diminishing.\u201cMore than ever before students need to find a learning cnvironment where they can flourish,\u201d said Dowsett Johnston.This college guidebook concept was initiated by students and their families who were scarching for clues to solving the after high school decision.While travelling throughout Canada promoting the university guide, Dowsett Johnston came face-to-face with students\u2019 doubts concerning the forecasts of their futures.A general loss of appeal in the well-travelled university route was cvident.The rationale for this was simple.Primarily, the tuttion for a college diploma ranged from $1,500 to $2,200 per year while the university equivalent was in the $3,300 arca and increasing.Not only was a debt incurred, but this payback can loom heavily for years to follow and climbing out beneath its weight can scem inconceivable.Indirectly, students were searching and requesting new venues of higher education.Colleges were more job-connected and not as consumed with the debt factor.Youthful aspirations were looking for security in our insecure world.\u201cColleges arc looked upon differently, breaking that country notion,\u201d commented Dowsett Johnston.\u201cThis book is meant to jumpstart the imagination from high school.\u201d Anne Dowsett Johnston Re-cstablishing and preparing lives have been successfully proven through the college route.Actual Job placement has been in the range of 90 per cent.This book demonstrated that colleges are not only graduating welders and machinists, but chefs, multi- disciphnary workers and animators.Sheridan College in Oakville, Ontario, for example, named \u2018the Harvard of Animation\u2019 has scen the likes of Disney, FOX and Nelvana recruiting their freshly-graduated students.\u201cColleges give futures and students are the main focus.The University's perspective is more accentuated on its faculty and program,\u201d revealed Dowsett Johnston.The diversity of options and choices must be made available to students, Years ago, the urgeney to shop for post-secondary educational locations wasn\u2019t as immediate.We followed our friends and it was satisfactory.Today, young adults are more attuned to their inner aspirations.They want more practical routes, less debts on their shoulders and viable carcer possi- bilities\u2014 not just a degree signilying they're educated.In this maze of choices, colleges are simplifying the goals by linking employers and employability.Formatted concisely, this guidebook piqued interest.The initial pages open to introductions, excerpts on successful graduates and the job market.Provincial territorial maps are the cover pages to what cach province has to offer in the college market.Vital statistics such as student population, tuition, financial aid plus other details are included at the end of cach provincial college 2 bricfing.A comprchen- The cover of the college guide, SiYC residence guide and a complete directory of all Canadian colleges and CEGEPs arc the book's finale.In the forward, editor-in-chief Robert Lewis described Dowsett Johnston as the educational spirit of Maclean's.With her qualified team she has produced cight editions of the popular ranking of universities and, since 1996, three annual guidebooks on Canadian universities.Her focus at Maclcan's has been educationally directed and since 1992 aside from her university rankings, she contributes a regular column on educational issucs.Her study of the college system cvolved while promoting the university guide.A graduate of Queens University in 1977, Dowsett Johnston began at Macleans as a researcher and reporter.After some time as an entertainment editor, motherhood claimed her attention.In 1986, she received a Southam Fellowship, won two National Magazine awards and returned to Maclean's in 1992 as a full-time editor covering education.Her special times are spent with her son and in the near future they may be exploring this college route as well.Colleges arc being clevated to new heights of importance.They are the providers of the future, the options that promote realistic goals and the new hope for today\u2019s youth.The Maclean's Guide to Canadian Colleges 1999 can be found at most magazine stands, > Brenda Mcintyre e The professional Team at

Writing last week in The National Post, columnist Mark Steyn declared that multiculturalism lets Canadians choose which side to be on: \u201cCitizenship is about allegiance,\u201d he says, indicating he 1s an old-fashioned kind of guy.\u201cIf a Serb stands up and takes an oath to Her Majesty the Queen.he should understand what he is doing.He's rcordering his priori- tics.He is not being asked to deny his Serbian blood, but to accept that he\u2019s part of the Canadian fam- ly.\" Defence Minister Art Eggleton, a former mayor of Toronto, denounced Serbs for fire-bomb- ing the US consulate in Toronto and throwing paint on police.He said, \u201cThe Serbian people should know that the (NATO) attack is not an attack on them.It is an attack on oppression.It is an attack on the Milosevic regime.\u201d How did this policy of multiculturalism all begin, a policy that brings Europe\u2019s poisonous hates onto the streets of Westmount and other Canadian cities?Mr.Fulford tells us, \u201cIt was in answer to a problem that no longer exists.Ukrainians who came here in the hundreds of thousands were then without a country of their own and wanted their national identity preserved.Almost immediately, it spread to others who had flourishing homelands.\u201d And then, of course, it became a great vote-getter for generous governments and powerful ministers.In the spirit of Christian charity, the Serb community, especially in Westmount, should provide aid and assistance to the 5,000 refugees that Canada is bringing in from Kosovo, even though, presumably, they are overwhelmingly Muslim.Edward W.Barrett Kensington Avenue Guidelines are not respected To the editor: I read with interest the letter in the Thursday, March 18 cdition of your paper which Ms.Aline Gubbay sent to Westmount's Architecture and Planning Commission.I live on Renfrew Avenue, a street in an arca built in the 1920s, where the facades and common areas between adjoining houses were uniform and were designed to be part of a harmonious streetscape.My neighbours were issued a permit to make repairs, but these \u2018repairs\u2019 resulted in the replacement of patio tiles and railings with materials of a different type, colour and quality from the original.This has resulted in a change to onc side of the exterior of the house, to the detriment of the original architectural objectives.| brought my concerns regarding these changes to the attention of (Building and Planning director) Joanne Potrier while work was in progress, but her response was that after a permit is issued, there is nothing she can do about it.Residents of Westmount should be questioning their confidence in the Architecture and Planning Commission\u2019s ability to protect the architectural integrity of Westmount after my experience, and the experiences of Thornhill and Anwoth Avenue residents.David Lyons Renfrew Avenue (See MORE page 7 Monitoring the Kosovo refugee crisis: a Canadian perspective Since March 24, the world has been witness to unbelievable images and stories of Kosovar refugees fleeing and being forced out of their homes by the Serbian army.As you know, Canada has played an active role within the NATO alliance.As the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, | have been directly involved in the ongoing discussions taking place both in Ottawa and abroad, monitoring the situation, and helping to find a peaceful solution to help end this crisis and help those whose lives have been devastated by the fighting.Canada responded to the appeal of the High Commissioner for Refugees, Ms.Ogata, and put in place all the infrastructure needed to accommodate, on an emergency basis, 5,000 refugees from Kosovo.This action had been made necessary because of the danger these refugees were facing.With hundreds of thousands of refugees crossing the former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonian and Albanian borders, the pressure on these countries to provide emergency aid and basic life necessities became a heavy burden.However, by the end of last week, SET Ms.Ogata indicated to the international community that there was no longer an immediate protection problem for refugees in Macedonia, as she had been given the assurance that the refugees would be in security and that borders would be reopened to allow them to circulate.She went on to state that \u201cthe majority of people should remain in the region to permit repatriation with security when the situation allows.Some individual resettlement would be appropriate to deal with special needs and family reunification.\u201d In the last few weeks, the situation in Kosovo has been volatile to say the least.It is for this reason that | have dispatched officials from my department to the region in order to better monitor the situation.As you can imagine, therc arc hundreds of genuine refugees who will eventually need a safe haven, and we want to be present and be able to help them in whichever way we can.In partnership with Red Cross officials, we are looking into various options available to us.Canada will continue the preparatory work it began and maintain a state of alert so that, should the situation change in the coming days and the High Commissioner decides that an emergency evacuation is needed, Canada will be ready.At the height of last week's refugee crisis, my department set up a special 1-800 line, allowing Canadians to contact us and offer whatever help they could provide.| am happy to tell you that in just 48 hours we received over 7,000 calls and 1,000 faxes to my departmental office in Ottawa.As well, | want to take this opportunity to thank the numerous Westmounters who contacted my riding office with various offers of aid.Your gencrosity was overwhelming.This just another example of how Canadians come together and open their hearts to help those in need.| want to thank all of those who have expressed a desire to help these people, and invite those who want to contribute to this cause to call 1-888-410-0009.Examiner PUBLISHER & EDITOR Leonard J Gervais ext.27 210 Victoria Ave., Westmount, Que., H3Z 2M4 Tel.: 514.484.5610 Direct

investigators in 1992 to spy on members of the Public Security Unit appears to have paid off for the city in increased ticketing in 1993.The PSU's overall ticket output was up 9,000 tickets, a 12 per cent increase, although part of this can be attributed to hiring more part- time ticketers.In a controversial move two years ago, Westmount hired private eyes to tail members of the PSU after an unexplained drop in the number of parking tickets issued.\u201d Fifteen Years Ago April 12, 1984: OSCAR AWARDS: \u201cTwo residents of Westmount were winners on stage Monday at the 56th annual Academy

gallons of syrup and 40 pounds of maple sugar.\u201d À, (Continued from page 6) Expressway noise is no cup of tea To the editor: Some thoughts in answer to all the dreamers who come up with \u2018not in my front yard\u2019 arguments as they live in a certain section of Westmount where they look out over the roaring Ville Maric Expressway, pretending not to hear anything.The reason that this expression \u2018not in my back or front yard\u2019 has been added to our language is because more and more of that kind of people are coming out of the woodwork.These people continue to bring up the argument that only serve their personal convenience and happiness, ignoring the fact that the issue about the sound barrier is a health issue and a serious one that affects everybody in that section of Westmount.Years have gone by, during which this \u2018not in my front yard\u2019 group have been able to divert the attention of the Westmount city council to their own interest without considering the health problem for others and for themselves.It is therefore a good thing that a vocal majority (and not a minority as charged) found the time and energy to revive this health issue.The initiative has found a favourable reception with the Westmount Municipal Association, which represents the whole of Westmount, and the mayor and city council.Both institutions are reacting to the health problems (such as stress-induced blood-pressure increases, sleep deprivation, cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life) that are caused by constant sound at a certain level.Council members and committee members will spend time together to solve this problem, reviewing the burden from all perspectives.It does make sense that in the future objectivity and subjectivity will no longer be confused, like we read in that last letter to the editor about this subject, when the writer had this dreamy view of the sunrise The Westmount Examiner NE and the smokestacks while looking through a triple-glazed window having a cup of tea in the back of the house where he can enjoy peace, which nobody else can.Jan Kuilman Columbia Avenue Dog owners not all bad apples To the editor: I write in response to Mr.Candido's letter of April 8, decrying the use of Staynor Park as a dog run by some local residents.For over 23 years, the WDOA has been working on explaining the subtleties of responsible dog ownership in urban arcas, where getting along with non-dog folk is of special importance.Obeying existing bylaws and picking up arc two basics of our philosophy and approach.These are accepted starting points for the overwhelming majority of dog owners, so we find it terrifically frustrating that some people haven't caught on.While some of Westmount's designated dog rtuns arc of dubious value, being next to high traffic streets, the run on Prospect is of a good size and is relatively safe.Local dog owners should be using it, or a run of their choice\u2014 not the fenced and posted park.1 applaud Mr.Candido\u2019s obvious patience in this matter, which appears to have been continuing for some time.The WDOA and/or Public Security can help.We often work together, and experience says that the problem can bc improved or eliminated with some effort and a little time.Mr.Candido is invited to call upon one or both groups.My fondest dream is that individuals behaving irresponsibly in dog matters should be regarded as just that\u2014individuals.Their behaviour should not result in the entire group being painted as villains.It seems that Mr.Candido has recognized this.Wonderful!

Thursday, April 15, 1999 Victoria Hall II: The tradition continues When the first Victoria Hall community centre opened its doors in September, 1899, residents were presented with a wonderful varicty of activities, from a swimming pool to a drill hall for the militia, plus a number of assembly rooms, large and small, for clubs and groups.The ensemble of community centre with the library next door and thc park beyond proved to be a magnet, drawing residents from cvery part of thc municipality, creating a centre around which the community could revolve.Then came the disastrous fire of 24, 1925, a new Victoria Hall was opened.The Governor General of Canada, Lord Byng of Vimy and Lady Byng were the guests of honour; there were ceremonies and cclebrations and general congratulations at this speedy replacement of a valuable community resource.But a lot had happened in the 25 years between one Victona Hall and the next.There were the years of a World War from 1914 to 1918, in which Westmount volunteers had taken part in record numbers.Out of this experience there emerged a new military contig ong On its return to Westmount, the regiment needed a home and in a surge of public sentiment and generous financial commitment it was proposcd that an armoury be built to house the new regiment.In the same month in which Victoria Hall opened its doors, the Victoria Hall had no need to provide space for a drill hall.Earlier, in 1911, a YMCA had opened across Sherbrooke Street.Since one of its main features was a swimming pool, this component was also eliminated from the new centre.Other competing attractions had developed.Cinemas and department stores drew residents beyond the districts borders so that Victoria Hall\u2019s relationship with the community was subtly altered.But it remained filled with activity, providing facilities not available elsewhere in Westmount; a large hall for public meetings and Perhaps the biggest change was a visual one.Architect Robert Findlay had designed the original centre to harmonize with the library, using similar material and a Romanesque revival style.The architects of the new centre, well- known Westmounters Hutchison and Wood, linked it visually with City Hall, built three years earlier and much admired.Victoria Hall, with its turrets and mullioned windows, evoked images of Englistg, medieval manors and castles.With time, however, Victoria Hall has become as familiar and well- loved a landmark as the library.first sod was turned for the armoury, a building which went on to be completed in six months.With this new facility in view, 1924 in which Victoria Hall burned to the ground.entity, the Royal Montreal Regiment (RMR), forged in the heat of battle and sealed with camaraderic.Immediately, plans were made to rebuild, and a ycar later, on June political rallies, an excellent dance floor and a stage regularly put to use by drama groups, amateur and professional.Now restored and rejuvenated for its 100th birthday, it bids fair to welcome another century of valuable services to the community.Airport reservations 100% Guaranteed or your trip is free*!!! .Fast, clean, efficient 2 and personalized service 8 485-4888 (*Certain restrictions apply) Just Listed Quality sunny family home with beautiful woodwoork, ground floor den, fun top floor suite & office or in-law apt.with separate entrance, garage, $647,389 Nicole Powell 932-0016 nn ROYAL LEPAGE An COURTIER IMMOBILIER AGRÉE CHARTERED REAL ESTATE BROKER 40102139 \u2014\u2014 She delivers.SER DESIGNER FABRICS AT DISCOUNT PRICES SR.WAVERLY 7,000 Yards wn Stock™ Draperies, upholstery, slipcovers, bedspreads, & duvet-covers made to measure, co-ordinating fabric & wall paper Kathryn Osborne DF SKON TYINTE IIE UR ING à 2 = 1357 GREENE AVE.2nd FL.TEL 931-1357 MONDAY-SATURDAY, 9:30 AM -
