Congratulations to Rick
Smith for catching and grinding the
hypocrisy of Clinton and helping to
surface the real issues at stake in
his article “Society to Blame for
Littleton Massacre.” (OP, May 1999)
I'm sure anyone who has been the
victim of bullying or teasing could
understand where the two boys who
went on the shooting rampage were
coming from. It was not the best
way to solve their problems, but
killing someone’s self confidence is
ot a crime society should overlook
ither. Sure, getting teased and
icked on happens to everyone and
elps build character, but there’s a
imit to everything. How long can
omeone function normally while
nowing they're literally an outcast
their own society, despised and
ocked by everyone? Is it really
ong to suggest being a little
inder and more considerate with
e people around you? 0r, at least
ave respect for their feelings. Treat
eople the way you want to be
eated; it’s not such a big sacrifice
onsidering the aftermath you could
e avoiding.
I can only hope we all take a look
t the “man in the mirror” before
ointing our finger at whoever is
ortrayed in the mainstream media
s villain.

Society? Not likely
Dear Mr. Smith,
In reading your
ss ier parte:
LITTLETO
last month’s issue of
the Other Press I found
that you are exactly
the type of person I
don’t want running this
country. That’s not to say that
you're alone in this, it’s just that
you are part of a huge number of
people that doesn’t want to take
the blame for anything. You and
your group instead, blame things
on “society” or “television” or
other such ambiguous entities.
I will take a great leap of faith
and assume you are an educated
man and being an educated man,
you may have read Aldus
Huxley's, A Brave New World. In
that book, society could be
blamed for the actions of its peo-
ple because the people in that
novel were grown and created to
think, act and look a certain way.
However, in this world, we are
created by a sperm fertilizing an
egg, which means that usually we
have a set of “parents.” These
parents should take it upon them-
selves to not teach about right
and wrong, but to explain the
options open to their offspring
and let them choose for them-
selves. This would mean “commu-
nicating” with our children and
young adults beyond “how was
your day at school.”
Speaking of school, how do you
intend to implement this “teacher
on every corner” policy? Have you
ever taught at an elementary or
secondary school? Do you have
friends that do? I have friends
who teach in these environments
and I can tell you that their days
are full enough without having to
give up their lunch hours and
recesses to supervise children that
they must look after for six hours
every day. Also, we hardly have
enough teachers in this province
to just teach our young people,
are we going to raise taxes to pay
for these “supervisors”? Are you
willing to pay for that Mr. Smith?
If these “supervisors” that you
request in your article are put in
place, bullying and other abusive
behaviour won't be wiped out, it
will simply be driven underground
where it will become more violent
with more gruesome results. Do
you remember the problems
Japanese schools had a few years
back with bullies? How the bullies
would conduct their business out
of the public’s eye, often with the
result being the suicide of the
victim. Would you like to bring
that over here Mr. Smith?
People need to stop blaming
ambiguous entities like “society”
and start taking responsibility for
their own actions. Your article
didn’t persuade me Mr. Smith. It
frightened me.

ALAN SAMUEL
ake four top-flight actresses, thrust them into a tale
Ts of political intrigue, and you may just come up
with a tour de force. This is precisely what happens
in Tea with Mussolini, a tale of triumph and tragedy
presented by MGM studios, which opened nationwide on
May 14. Italian-director, Franco Zeffirelli, puts forth a
monumental tale of the sorry plight of four wayward
women trying to get by in Florence during the
impressionable days of the Second World War. It could be
said that this film is of
the same class as last
year's foreign hit Life is
Beautiful, but without
some of the scope. In
Tea With Mussolini the
emphasis is on top
acting and a sweeping
story that blend
perfectly with the
subtle mayhem on view.
Known as the “Scorpioni” for their biting wit, a group
of noble English ladies seem to run Florence society to
perfection. The leader of the pack is Lady Hester, the
stuffy. wife of a former diplomat. Others in her entourage
include a wacky art-loving dog owner and an equally
kooky American ex-pat. When Elsa, an American enter-
tainer with a penchant for spending money like it’s going
out of style, returns to the Mediterranean it really
impacts on the local social scene. Real trouble, however,
comes with the arrival of Mussolini and his brown-shirted
muscle-men. _
Another elderly lady making up the foreign contingent
is Mary Wallace who works as a translator/secretary to a
wealthy Italian businessman who has a little boy. It is
this boy ,Luka, who forms a common bond between all

the British and American women as they decide to take
over the raising of the lad from his delinquent father.
All this “parenting” is set against the menace of
Mussolini who slowly manages to turn his people against
all foreigners, first the British, then the Americans. All
the ladies are singled out, driven from their luxurious
homes and sent to dingy prisons. Life is made even more
dangerous for Elsa, the American, as she is Jewish.
Cher (Mask) shines as Elsa, the ugly duckling show-offy
American who is harshly humiliated because for being
Jewish. Maggie Smith (The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie) is
terrific as the dragon lady British noblewoman who can't
stand Elsa (and vice-versa). Perhaps the most memorable
performance of all these standouts belongs to Joan
Plowright (Widow's Peak) as Mary, Luka’s true guiding
angel. Rounding out the stellar ensemble cast is Oscar
winner Judy Dench (Shakespeare in Love) as a ditsy
art/dog lover and Lilly Tomlin (9 to 5) as another wacky
American...
Beautiful cinematography and some warm humour
combine with superb performances on all levels to make _
Tea with Mussolini sensational entertainment that’s joyous
and bittersweet.

“There's this notion that if you don’t

“Are they really concerned about water quality,”
Malone wonders, “if their staff has no hydrologists or
ecologists, but a whole bunch of foresters?” Her claim is
somewhat unfounded—the panel of GVRD speakers at the
consultation included a biologist, geologist, ecologist,
and entomologist. These were just a few of the scientists
hired to complete the six-year ecological inventory.
he danger with logging is that it causes
ico in the natural flow of water and
exposes the watershed soil. Once logged,
there are fewer canopies to filter rain water and
snow melt so exposed soil quickly fills our
reservoirs and-drinking water. As debris travels
into our water pipes, it releases bacteria and
pathogens, creating a need for higher
concentrations of chlorine to fight these bacteria.
Excessive chlorine in tap water is why many
Vancouverites—including people at the GVRD—are
purchasing bottled water.
: uthor William Koop’s critique, Misinforming the
es
Public, gives a scientific analysis on the effects of
GVRD's “managing” in the watersheds. He explains
that since they've logged 5000 hectares of plantations,
they've created 5000 hectares of land more prone to
forest fires.
The GVRD claims that many of these areas were logged
because canopies of the same height have a greater
chance of catching fire. They take responsibility for their
clear cutting and all the other controversial decisions
made in the past, and suggest the ecological inventory
and public forums are being done to find new, more
acceptable ways, to manage our watersheds.
Why not stop logging all together? Hunt explains the
GVRD already has a 999 year lease with the province to
“deal” with these lands, and as part of the agreement, a
Management Plan must be submitted to the Ministry of
Forests. “I, personally, don’t have a problem with getting
out of any agreement requiring us to log,” assures Hunt,
“Since 1991 we've been formulating a 200 year
Management Plan. In the first year, we can get out of the
Amending Indenture, but a plan is needed for the rest of
the 199 years.”

heard? Why decide what the outcome will be when the
decision-making process hasn't even begun? “I would be
flabbergasted if politicians decided we should start
logging the watersheds on a commercial scale. They know
this is not in the public’s best
interest,” says Morrel.
n People and
@ Places, Scott .
Hanna, Manager
of Acres International
.for Environmental
ervices, literally
ook notes while
listening to the
_ public’s concerns
egarding the GVRD’s
past practices. When
Hunt was asked what he
_ learned from coming to the
forum he replied, “What I’m
hearing is the need to have different groups get together,
share their information, and come up with a solution
that’s going to work.”
Essie ten are not displaying the same
attitude. Even though guests were given a twenty-
minute question and answer period after each
presentation during the consultation, most
environmentalists barely gave the GVRD a chance to *
speak. One environmentalist wasn’t even happy when he
was given a chance to speak. “Thank-you for your
indulgence,” he said sarcastically after being thanked for
his patience.

GVRD's “managing” in the watersheds. He explains
that since they've logged 5000 hectares of plantations,
they've created 5000 hectares of land more prone to
forest fires.
The GVRD claims that many of these areas were logged
because canopies of the same height have a greater
