SERVICES?By Patrick A.Kerkhoven ow taxes or better services?Lr the dilemma confronting the City of Westmount as it begins planning its new municipal budget, most likely to be unveiled on January 8 next year.The City\u2019s budget has been frozen for the last 10 years, and whether or not you support the frugal money management depends on what you have noticed.Westmount Municipal Association (WMA) past president Doug McDougall indicated that Mayor Peter Trent has many tax-conscious supporters.\u2018he said.\u201cThere are people who often compliment Trent for not raising taxes,\u201d \u201cIf you talk about public opinion, that\u2019s one measure.\u201d But deciding on the future of stagnant taxes is only one side of the equation the City has to solve in bringing down its new budget.In at least one instance, rising prices have left the City backtracking.For instance, sewer-cleaning ser- vices\u2014an often unnoticed but rudimentary practice\u2014has seen a 100 per cent price increase since last year.Consequently, the City has rejected all tenders, and new tenders will be called with reduced quantities.The sewage system is made up of 6,235 linear meters of sewers ranging from 30 Budget thaw feared as City maintenance costs escalate By Martin C.Barry estmount will be paying 27 per cent more to clean City buildings\u2014an increase, according to the Public Works Department, due mainly to higher wages.At its August sitting, council awarded a three-year $841,500 contract to Services d'Entretien Venise, the lowest of five bidders and the same company previously hired for the task.The cost is higher \u201cmainly due to labour,\u201d said Public Works Director Fred Caluori.The maintenance workers\u2019 salaries are set by the Comité Paritaire, a provincial regulatory body that determines wages in various industries.For the last few years, the Comité Paritaire had been after the contractor and even the City to supply the names and hours of maintenance employees working for Westmount in buildings such as Victoria Hall, the library, the Protective Services building and comfort stations in local parks.According to Caluori, the workers were being underpaid.\u201cThe rates they were being paid were less than what the Comité | Esti Jedeikin Paritaire stipulates,\u201d said Caluori.\u201cDefinitely, we have seen increases this year in tenders.When budget time comes around, we will have to take these increases into account.\u201d Wages were not the only reason for the increase, however.The City also asked the contractor for better service in its specifications, and will exercise more quality control.Westmount is following through on a policy established last year to better identify all its employees.From now on, all maintenance employees will be wearing uniforms, adding to the cost.The increase has raised concern with at least one resident that Westmount's budget freeze, which has been in effect for nearly a decade, may come to an end.\u201cThere has been a series of inflationary tenders accepted,\u201d said Westmount Municipal Association member Don Wedge.Council also recently approved contracts for garbage removal and road salt that were 11 and 3.5 per cent higher, respectively.\u201cA 27 per cent increase is rather startling,\u201d said Wedge.\u201cIt\u2019s not all inflation.There's extra work called for.\u201d cm to 2.4 meters in some locations.High-pressure jets are used to clean out the system and vacuums remove debris.But sewer cleaning is not the only service costing the City a larger chunk of the budget.Garbage collection tender prices have risen by 12.6 per cent to a total similar to the 1993-94 fiscal year.Janitorial cleaning services have risen 27 per cent since last year, attributable to higher labour costs and specifications by the City of more stringent quality control and a provision for all cleaning personnel to wear uniforms.The cost of 10,000 metric tons of road salt has increased 3.5 per cent as well, although the City uses an average of only 8,000 tons each year as it tries to reduce the amount of salt by adding a mixture of sand and other compounds.In conjunction with pay increases for the City's white collar workers and firefighters in the two respective collective agreements, one notices that the same services cost more almost every year.Does that mean Westmounters are losing services in favour of a frozen City budget and low taxes?\"Whereas there used to be 20 gardeners in Westmount not long ago, now there are only two,\" commented James Griffin at the August WMA meeting.\"There is no legitimate need for a freeze on the budget,\" added Don Wedge of the WMA, \"not to say that the situation is becoming worrisome with the inflation we are seeing in the way of what normal services cost.The City\u2019s budget can\u2019t be held any more.\u201d liberates others.Words to consider in today\u2019s world of Westmount, Québec: Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.We ask ourselves, who am | to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and faboulous?Actually, who are you not to be?You are a child of God.Your playing small doesn't serve the world.There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.We were bom to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone.And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same.As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically 77 Oe ' President Nelson Mandela Inauqural Speech, 199] Westmount Baha'i Community Telephone Number (514) 481-0686 4208440

to have paid a visit to present-day Westmount, he probably would have quipped something to the effect that it is impossible to throw a rock in this city without hitting a dog\u2014an idea the crotchety old humourist would no doubt have relished during his latter, cynical years\u2014as dogs certainly outnumber church windows in Westmount.Having a healthy canine population is one of this city\u2019s many attributes, and the majority of dog owners are responsible people who diligently follow all the rules of conduct and hygiene.But despite these efforts, the odd ugly incident does occur\u2014perhaps more often than we'd like to admit.The latest incident\u2014a rather brutal attack on a small dog by a much larger breed, kept primarily for protection purposes\u2014 occurred last week near the corner of Sherbrooke and Mount Stephen, right across the street from the wading pool in Westmount Park, where small children tend to congregate during the summer.The ensuing fallout has raised some delicate questions about the safe handing of \u2018dangerous\u2019 dogs, but, unfortunately, no solid answers.Westmount\u2019s existing bylaws governing the safe control of dogs are certainly adequate for most situations, but as was proven on August 15, there are enough holes in the current system to allow isolated incidents to occur, and if you happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, you too could become the victim of a dog attack.The chances are quite low, of course, but far from inipos- sible.Like car accidents, these things will still occur despite any amount of legislation.As for people who keep large, untrained dogs to protect themselves and their homes, they have every right to do so\u2014all Freudian overtones aside.But it seems that this is only looking for trouble, not avoiding it.They have to get the dog under control every time someone comes to the door, and they always have to be on the lookout for other dogs during outings.This is hardly worth the bother when you consider the fact that if someone really wants to break into your home, they will\u2014as even a pair of rabid Dobermans is no match for a well-prepared professional.If anything, such a responsibility only puts the hapless animal in jeopardy, as taking care of them would be any intruder\u2019s first order of business.Home security is best left to quality locks and alarm systems, and the family pet should be just that.One of the friendliest dogs I've ever known\u2014a black Lab named Drum\u2014belonged to a prominent Westmount family whose concern for security was no small matter: As president of the Westmount Dog Owners Association.Bridget Blackader has worn out several soapboxes over the years admonishing the careless treatment of dogs while advocating the safe handling of those which might be prone to attacking on a whim.And she\u2019s absolutely right when she says that as long as there is interaction among dogs, there will be unfortunate incidents such as the one last week.In other words, there seems to be little anyone can do about nature's little accidents.But since the responsibility ultimately rests with dog owners, perhaps a bit more education might help.Westmount takes great pride in its progressive legislation gainst pesticides and smoking\u2014and deservedly so\u2014therefore a more aggressive campaign to offer tips to owners on proper dog handing might go a long way in preventing or at least reducing the number of such \u2018accidents\u2019 in the future.As was pointed out following last week's attack.the next time the victim could

Like most summers, this one had good news and bad news.Starting with the bad, so we can end on a happier note.Gentle readers, after I don\u2019t know how many warnings against leaving your friend tied to a pole while you shop, a dog was kidnapped from a pole again this year, in the Victoria Village area.Her family is, understandably, devastated.We can only hope that this represents a bizarre way for her to have acquired a new family, but that is unlikely.A research lab more probably has a new subject.Other summers have seen more kidnappings, but that is utterly irrelevant to the dog and her family.Going to the dogs More unhappy news includes the story of an attack by one dog on another, of which more details are elsewhere in this edition.No one comes out ahead when such an incident occurs.But, it is crucial to note that the story involves two dogs, of approximately 1,500 living in Westmount.Generalized conclusions regarding dog behaviour or breed of dog involved, cannot reasonably be drawn from a single incident.With remarkably few exceptions, dogs manage very well in their interactions with others, both human and A SUMMER UPDATE canine, frequently and more consistently better than we humans do among ourselves.Yes, there are things owners can do to encourage and maintain acceptable behaviour (training, training, training,) and yes, there may be tendencies in some breeds for certain attributes (vastly improved by training, training, training,) but we and the dogs are better served by regarding this as an single situation.On a much brighter note, we thank the City for installing a number of garbage pails along sections of Montrose and Cote St.Antoine, so the good folk who have bagged their dogs\u2019 productions, have a place to put the baggies.We also thank the City for installing an above-ground water outlet in Murray Hill dog run.No more lifting heavy metal plates and scrabbling underground, and no more permanent mudhole wallowing! To all the wonderful people who made an extra effort to keep Westmount Park litter-free this summer, my toes and my dog thank you.\"twas a joy indeed to feel the grass rich from the summer rain between my tootsies, and not to be picking my way around crinkley plastic and other stuff.Keep up the effort\u2014there\u2019s still plenty of summer and grass to enjoy.Early warnings to mark on your social calendar: Wednesday, October 4, at about 7 p.m., Rev.William Blizzard of St.Matthias\u2019 will mark the Feastday of St.Francis of Assisi by blessing all woofs (and their human companions!) And at the end of November, following the merger referendum, there will be the annual blow-out of a dog party.Fun, games, prizes, and happy noise.More info on both events will be coming.In the meantime, cuddle your darling daily, walk with him or her regularly, enjoy meeting friends, and share the cool glory of an approaching autumn in good health.Trust me, this is way less expensive than a psychiatrist's couch!! Well.Over 55 By Mary Stark These days everyone is supposed to be savvy about health and medical matters.One reason is that we need to be informed consumers of health care, aware of the latest medical techniques and new drugs as well as any natural alternatives that might exist.Another reason is that there aren't enough nurses, or anaes thetists or family doctors to go around, and so it\u2019s a good idea to bone up on one\u2019s own.The future is now, and there are more of us and fewer medical people in it.And if you think \u2018virage ambulatoire\u2019 refers to the turn signal on the side of an ambulance, you're several government memos behind the times.It really translates as \u201cRise, take up thy convalescent bed and walk.\u201d Fortunately, we live in an urban area with world-class medical schools and fine hospitals, even if the some of the latter may soon become fine condominiums.But we are also fortunate that there really are good sources of medical information out there available for everyone.These days all of us can become informed.You too can impress your friends by slipping terms like \u201cgram negative bacteria\u201d into casual conversation.If you're willing to try surfing the Internet on your own (Westmount Public Library has free Internet access) you can find all kinds of websites offering health information, descriptions of ilnesses and treatments, and the latest research findings.The Library's own health links are a good way to start, and http://www westlib.org/ref/health.htm is where you can find them.Health Canada even has an on-line information service at http://www.he-sc.ge.ca, where you can access public health reports, news releases, health warnings and much more.Mind you, this site is not for the faint-hearted.A May news release from the Health Canada site (this is all true) announced the voluntary recall of a bear repellent whose active ingredient had not actually been.uh.tested.Pretty scary stuff to log onto from your laptop in the middle of the woods if you've been taunting bears all day, thinking you were invincible.On the other hand, readers of the March news releases were relieved to discover that Gecko Lizard Herbal Tea had been found to be clear of harmful substances, contrary to an earlier warning.You can never be too careful with gecko lizards.If your need for information is a little more pressing, say your grandson has pushed a bean into his ear and you can,t extract it, you might want to call Info- Santé.It's not exactly an emergency, more of a bean incident really, so you hesitate to call 911.Yet you could use some calm professional advice from a nurse.For Westmount residents, the Info-Santé number is 934-0354, the same number as the CLSC Métro.Most people really are very pleased with the help they get from this increasingly- popular service.Later, when you have more time, you could surf the Internet from the library or from home to find out why children put things in their ears, what kind of problems arise from foreign objects in the ears, what are the causes and treatments of common childhood inner-ear infections and what is the statistical likelihood that a bean left in the ear will actually grow into a bean plant.You could find the words to the ditty from the fifties \u2018Our Mother Said Not to Put Beans in Our Ears\u2019, and even join a chatroom or support group for families whose children put beans in their ears.The tricky thing about the Internet is that the quality of the web sites varies enormously.Unless you stick to reliable sites, for example those connected with major medical centres, you could find yourself with erroneous bean (or whatever) information, or even get hooked up with some bean-in-the-ear ritual cult.Some sites have been vetted by a Swiss non-profit organization which acts as a neutral third party (the Swiss have a knack for being neutral) to screen medical web sites (look up http://www.hon/ch).Others have agreed to a code of ethics to try to ensure quality (take a peek at http://www.ihealthcoalition.org) But the best news yet is that our own Westmount Public Library gives us an inside track to two reliable state-of-the-art databases for health and for alternative medicine.Just ask anyone in the Reference Department and they'll help you get started.These are restricted-access on-line sites, for which the Healthy City Project was successful in obtaining funding from the Zellers Foundation and the Hay Foundation.Due to the generosity of these two funders, and the enthusiasm of the library's professional staff, we are only a short (healthy) walk away from top-level, credible databanks which have compiled and organized huge © amounts of health information, news and guidance.In a climate of gloomy healthcare news, it\u2019s one bright spot where hope, community spirit and the quest for understanding have come together for the benefit of all fellow-Westmounters.Well.Over 55 is coordinated by

Festival des Films du Monde this weekend, an exploration of inner consciousness sets up a dialogue between the individual and the universe.Interviewed on Wednesday morning at her Ste.Catherine Street

also an enigma that MacDougall struggled with.Pierre Hébert, a producer at the National Film Board, suggested jazz and soundtrack musician Robert M.Lepage.MacDougall, who considers it an honor to have worked with him, estimates that Lepage used more than 90 tracks\u2014 including eight original songs\u2014that reflect sounds of music from the seventies.Describing the result as a \u201cprogressive rock soundtrack,\u201d MacDougall presents the audience with aural experiences that range from the guitar to the tabla.\u201cThe soundtrack is as layered as the images,\u201d she said.As the title suggests, the film's origins were actually conceived as a visual journal for a final art project in 1974.Little did MacDougall know that the stark, black-ringed book handed in to a teacher at Sir George Williams University, where she obtained a certificate in fine arts, would one day come to life on a screen.Or maybe she did.\u201cIt was a lot like a film because I utilized transparent layers,\u201d MacDougall mused, flipping through images of the visual journal that are over a quarter century old.\u201cMaybe | knew subconsciously.\u201d When she pitched a storyboard to the NFB,

as long as nobody bothers her, she doesn\u2019t bother anybody.\u201d Zhivotovsky also said that no dog should be allowed to be loose while on the street.He walks Queenie himself and has been using a muzzle for the last three months, something that the City asked that he do.Blackader said that generally dogs may have this kind of attitude.\u201cDogs don\u2019t necessarily like each other or like each other immediately\u2014and people often forget that,\u201d she said.\u201cIts entirely possible or even normal doggie behaviour that something might happen.\u201d Congregation SHAAR HASHOMAYIM and THE BJEC are happy to announce the merger of XJ PALS and AMI Hebrew Afternoon Schools g 7 Register now for the 2000-2001 school year at Ÿ e Curriculum includes: SHAAR AMI HEBREW AFTERNOON SCHOOL OF CONGREGATION SHAAR HASHOMAYIM * Subsidized transportation from your child's day school including early-arrival supervised programming * Dual-stream (once and twice weekly option) for first cycle students (grades K thru 2) * Twice weekly for second cycle students (grades 3 thru 6) * Pre B'nei Mitzvah Program including Jewish Values and Ethics with Rabbi Barry Gelman Ulpan Style Hebrew (Tal-Am Hebrew language program), Heritage, Holiday Torah and Tefillah learning Comprehensive music and art program centered around Jewish calendar studies * Back by popular demand-lkkarim aleph and bet-directed by Rabbi Barry Gelman with Family Educator Jeremy Wexler.This program runs independently of SHAAR AMI and is open to all high school students (Wednesday evenings includes pizza supper).A great opportunity for informal Jewish learning and social activity.40205438 Join us s for our Open House on Wednesday Aug.30, 2000 at 7:00 pm.Don\u2019t delay, register today.Space is limited! 1) Fu nore Information, lease.call Stefani Novick- Fernandez Principal a at 9%.HL e ext 414 \u2014_\u2014\u2014 ty Pa fa \u2014 _- ne = = pe hn WA | ota\u201d rN SN TSF > >.WY 4 2 A : Letters to the editor (continued from page 6) D.Significant modifications to the existing infrastructure to accommodate easier access to the new facility estimated by their consultants to cost only some $17 @allion.E.The project will provide parking facilities for some 5,000 or more requiring a space about 25 times the parking space \u201cA beginner is not an absolute begmmer: The child who takes up music lessons is already a person.He/she is distinguished by histher particular tastes, needs, and fears.This is where true education must begin.This is why the Institute proposes individualized programs and\u201c workshops.each of which is set up and adjusted in function of the student and © not in function of an I approach with a predetermined notion of whai the ;
