ISSUE 12\nFINDING WALDO IN MY PANTS SINCE 1918\nLiberal landslide leaves losers lollygagging\nCampbell crushed, Chretien crowned, McLaughlin minimized, Manning miraculous, Bouchard buoyant, Hurtig hushed\nby Rick Hiebert, Mike Kitchen\nand Tessa Moon\nTed McWhinney cruised to\nan easy 57 percent victory in\nVancouver Quadra as a Liberal\nsteamroller crushed the Tories in\nlast nighf s federal election.\nMcWhinney succeeds John\nTurner as the MP for UBCs federal riding. Until his election,\nMcWhinney was a political science professor at Simon Fraser\nUniversity in Burnaby. He is an\nobvious frontrunner for the constitutional affairs ministry.\nThe riding has been solidly\nLiberal since 1984 and\nMcWhinney had lots of help last\nnight from voters on campus.\nAccording to the results,\nMcWhinney easily carried all the\npolls on campus.\nUBCs new MP will be one of\n177 Liberals forming a Liberal\nmajority government. The Bloc\nQuebecois came next with 54 and\nmay form the official opposition.\nThe Reform party swept western\nCanada with 52 seats.\nThe NDP held on with nine\nseats and the Progressive Conser-\n/atdve caucus will consist of two\nMPs, the lowest in party history.\nMcWhinney was unavailable\nfor comment last night, but Tracy\nGolub,presidentofthe UBC Young\nLiberals, was understandably\nelated.\n\"We were really well organized. We brought McWhinney out\nand got students to see and meet\nhim,\" Golub said.\n\"He's an academic. He lives in\nthe riding and understands what\nstudents are going through being\nan SFU professor,\" she said. \"I really think that hell be looking out\nfor us.\"\nMeanwhile, at the Kim\nCampbell \"victory celebrations\"\ndowntown, Tories were drowning\ntheir sorrows. It was quiet and sombre.\nThe Tories gave up a brave\ncheer of \"Kim Kim Kim\" before\ntheir leader mounted the platform\nto speak.\n\"Canadian democracy has spo-\no_Ug\nQ-HI\nMA CHIA-NIEN PHOTO\nken loudly and clearly. I have received their judgement with disappointment, but without reservation,\" Campbell said.\n\"I share with my colleagues\nthe disappointment with tonight's\nresults,\" she said. \"I believe profoundly in the principles and future of our party- We begin the\nprocess of renewal and rebuilding.\n\"Success was not ours tonight,\nbut it can be ours tomorrow. There\nare many Canadians who look to\nus to articulate their vision of our\ncountry.\n\"The Conservative party is an\nimportant force. Our day in the sun\nwill come again, that I promise\nyou! Consider yourselves hugged,\"\nshe concluded.\nThe head of the UBC Young\nTories, Mark Mcwhinney, was one\nunhappy camper.\n\"I'm really disappointed. Kim\nreally represented change. The\nTories had a whole new slate of\ncandidates. She came out and said\nwe're not going to have unemployment down until the year 2000.\nThat's true. Deficit reduction\nshould take priority.\n\"Jean Chretien did not let the\npublic know the whole truth. At\nleast Campbell is honest,\" he said.\nChristian ministry zealots shaft The OK Phoenix\nbv Taivo Evard W _ _ _ ... \u00E2\u0080\u009E ... .........\nby Taivo Evard\nOkanagan University\nCollege's (OUC) student newspaper, The Phoenix, has been forced\nto operate with all but $1 of their\n1993 student funding thanks to\nthe zealousness of the University\nChristian Ministry.\nAt the OUC Student Association Annual General Meeting\n(AGM) last May, both The Phoenix\nand OUC radio station's budgets\nwere reduced to $1 apiece. Traditionally a poorly attended meeting,\nthe UCM stackedthe AGM and put\nforth and passed a motion to all but\neliminate the budgets.\nThe UCM, a long-time opponent of The Phoenix, was inflamed\nafter seeing the pink triangle issue\u00E2\u0080\u0094which concerns various expressions of sexuality.\nHowever, council members on\nthe student association are\n\"friendly for the most part to the\nidea ofthe paper,\" said managing\neditor Mitch Cooper, \"and what\nthey've done is cement media on\ncampus institutionally\" by creat-\nMartlet soars into financial autonomy\nby Taivo Evard\nAfter running unsuccessfully\nfor autonomy over the past twelve\nyears, University of Victoria's The\nMartlet finally achieved financial\nautonomy in their mi d-October student referendum.\nThe Martlet's co-editor Dave\nClements commented on past referenda, \"usually voter turnout is\nreally low...but people turned out\nin droves to turn us down.\"\nCommenting on The Martlet's\nmost recent autonomy effort,\nClements said that \"it was weird.\"\nThe Martlet's planned referendum autonomy drive was abandoned earlier this term after an\noffer from the Students Union (SU)\nto include the autonomy question,\nas well as funding increases for\ncertain society groups, in an amalgamated SU student-levy increase\nproposal of $8.50 per semester.\nThe SU has been experiencing\nfinancial difficulties, and Clements\nbelieves that the SU tacitly silenced\nkey student society groups, like the\nstudent paper, to curtail opposition to the fee increase by includ-\ningi'undingincreasesfor these student groups in the proposal.\n\"In a sense, we were bought\noff by the student society,\"\nClements said.\nWhile Clementsadmittedthat\ntheir autonomy success can likely\nbe attributed to the combined referendum proposal, he lamented\nthat \"we weren't as critical as possible [in addressing the issue ofthe\nfee increase]. We gave air time to\nopposition...but fortunately there\nwas no official 'no' side rep.\"\nHe pointed out that most students are aware that the SU is in\ndire financial shape, and that opposing the referendum would have\nonly hurt the society.\nThe Martlet has had editorial\nautonomy for five years, and receives a student levy of $2.75 per\nsemester from a full-time equivalent of 12-13,000 students.\nMathew Martin: he's our man, if he can't.\nby Sara Martin\nMayoral candidate and ex-\nUbyssey staffer Matthew Martin\nturned offhis Monday morning cartoons to be interviewed by The\nUbyssey.\nMartin, the only openly gay\ncandidate ofthe 23 candidates running for mayor, first decided to run\nfor mayor because he thought it\nwould be fun; \"because it was there\nand because I can,\" he said.\n\"Then I thought I could make\nsome issues, gay and lesbian issues, and that city hall is the wrong\ncolor. It should be pink,\" Martin\nsaid.\nMartin believes schools should\nbe more active in i ssues such as gay\nandlesbian awareness and safe sex\neducation.\n\"Lots of work has to done in\nschools, such as condoms in bath\nrooms and safe sex education,\" Martin said.\nHe would also require school\ncouncillors to have \"sensitivity\ntraining on LGB [lesbian gay bisexual] issues.\"\nMartin stresses the need for\nmore HIV education in the heterosexual community, stating that \"it's\nnow heterosexual women who are\nmost at risk.\"\nAs part of his go-green plan,\nMartin said he would convert the\ndowntown core to pedestrians only,\nincrease public transit, discourage\nsingle car occupancy, increase levies on taxes for road use and improve and increase bike paths both\nfor recreation and commuter purposes.\nMartin also offered solutions\nfor the \"big problem\" of social housing which includes rent caps, ten\nants taking part in housing maintenance, and encouraging developers to build affordable housing\nthrough zoning.\nMartin sees policing as a \"major important issue\" and claims\nVancouver needs more \"proactive\nrather than reactive policing.\"\n\"Reactive police reacts to a\ncrime while proactive police are\nvisible and active within the com-\nmuriity,\"Martinsaid. He explained\nthat having police visible on the\nstreets, especially in the west end,\nwill act as a deterrent whereas\nright now police are active only\nafter a crime by answering 911\ncalls.\n\"Reactive is like a band-aid\nwhile proactive is prevention. It's\nlike taking vitamins before you get\na cold instead of after,\" said Martin.\nMartin, who worked at the\nUbyssey 91-93, is now a waiter at\nthe \"glamorous\" Rock Cafe and intends to keephisjob on weekendsif\nhe is elected mayor.\ning a student mediafunding group,\nwhich includes representatives\nfrom council. The media funding\ngroup was set up to evaluate applications from student publications\nand distribute monies.\nAdded to the fall AGM was a\nmotion to finance the media funding group through a student levy of\n$2.50 per semester. Cooper cited\ndifficulties in maintaining quorum\nat the AGM, that being one percent\nof student population, or 50 people,\nbecause some students had to go to\nclasses or had previous plans.\n\"Our student population islaid\nback...almost to the point of being\npathetically apathetic,\" Cooper\nsaid.\nThe motion was passed, but\nunfortunately funding was not\nmaderetroactive,meaningthatThe\nPhoenix remains financially\nstrapped with no funding until next\nSeptember.\n\"This makes us very much\nhinged to interests of our advertisers,\" said Cooper, as advertising\nrevenue is the paper's only income.\nThe monetary woes have meant\nthe paper \"flexes and bends like a\nreed in the wind.\"\nThe increased stress associated with the $ 1 budget \"makes for\na tough situation,\"as even incidentals such as office supplies pose a\nproblem. The Phoenix used to be\npublished bi-weekly, but has had\nto cut back to once a month, if\npossible.\nCooper said that The Phoenix\ncontemplated shelving the paper\nand starting fresh in September,\nbecause \"we're never sure there'll\nbe an issue.\"\nClosing the paper would entail re-establishing The Phoenix\nnext fall, a difficult task at the best\nof times.\nAs for the future ofthe paper,\nCooper said \"we still plan a sexuality issue, actually more of a gender\nissue, that many won't want to\nlisten to.\" > THE UBYSSEY Classifieds\nCLASSIFIEDS\nTUESDAY 26 OCTOBER 1993\nft ales: AMS card I\nr \u00E2\u0080\u0094 J lines, iJ.lj; additional lines Co cents.

Reform took only one\nseat in Ontario while the Liberals\nsecured the remaining 98. However, Reform swept the west with 24\nout of 32 seats in BC and all but two\nseats in Alberta. Here's a hint at\nwhat the future holds:\nby Pat Micelli\nTORONTO (CUP) \u00E2\u0080\u0094 A Reform\nParty candidate was forced to jump\nship and abandon his election campaign this week after students exposed his racially offensive opinions.\nToronto-area candidate John\nBeck resigned an hour after angry\nYork University students confronted Reform. Leader Preston\nManningatacampus speech, quoting racist remarks that had been\nattributed to Beck in various newspapers.\nThey think Tm nuts, but Tve\nhad no breakdown. They asked me\nto resign, so I resigned,\" Beck told\nreporters the next day.\nDuring the confrontation at\nYork's Osgoode Hall law school,\nManning brushed offYork student\nAlex Ng's initial demand that Reform executive expel Beck from the\nparty for telling the Financial Post\nhe felt like a member of a minority\nbecause he spoke English.\nBut third-year law student\nCindy Lauer presented more damning evidence from an interview with\nYork's student paper Excalibur,\nwhich had hit the stands that morn\ning.\n\"You said Reform policy on\nimmigration is non-racist. How\nwould you respond to the following\nquotes?\" Lauer asked Manning\nbefore reading out Beck's comments.\nIn the interview, Beck responded to Excalibur reporters'\nquestions about his views on native self-governmentby saying: \"We\ncame here and took their land from\nthem. I feel that's what [immigrants] are doing to us... they will\noverpower us.\n\"Look at the Natives, they're\nvery messed up. That's what's hap-\npeningtous. We're all beinghooked\non booze and drugs and we're goi ng\nto end up just like the Indians.\" He\nalso said some immigrants are\nbringing \"death and destruction to\nthe people.\"\nManning said the statements\nwere inconsistent with Reform\nParty policy, but withheld his judgment of Beck, saying the press was\nnot always trustworthy.\nHowever, news spread quickly\nthat Excalibur had the interview\ntaped, andan hour later Beck pulled\nout ofthe race amidst nation-wide\ncontroversy.\nLauer said she was surprised\nit happened so fast and got so much\npublicity. \"I thought, OK, maybe\nit'll make the insi de pages in a local\nnewspaper\u00E2\u0080\u0094I didn'texpect it to be\nthe first item on prime-time news.\"\nExcalibur's news editor\nSheldon Ford, one ofthe students\nwho interviewed Beck, was also\ntaken off guard.\nMayoral smorgasbord\nby Bob Main\nAfter 25 October the next big\ndecision for the people of\nVancouver, including many UBC\nstudents, is the 20 November civic\nelection.\nLibby Davies, Phillip Owen,\nBob Seeman and 20 others have\ndeclared themselves candi dates for\na mayoral election that could have\nalargerimpactonthedaily lives of\nVancouver resi dents than the federal election.\nBob Seeman wants to get civic\npolitics away from the party affiliations which he believes stagnate\ndecision making. He wants city\nhall to be a place for quick catalyst\ndecisions based on organization\nand logic rather than on polarized\nparty lines.\nLibby Davies sees a Cope (Coalition of progressive electors) majority as enough of a change from\nthe Non-Partisan Association\ndominated council \"to ensure that\nVancouver stays livable and\ndoesn't become smog city.\"\nEstablishing bike, bus and\ncarpool lanes is a priority for both\nDavies and Seeman.\nPhillip Owenlooksatchanges\nfrom present policy with skepticism. He wants to know where the\nmoney will come from for the lanes\nand said to \"ask Libby about bus\nlanes in Marpole,\" which he opposes.\n\"Why should we put in a lane\nthat helps Richmond commuters\nwhen the merchants on Granville\nstreet need the lanes for parking?\", Owen said.\n\"Bullshit! That's absolute\nbullshit!\", Davies responded. \"The\nlane is for Vancouver commuters\non the second busiest bus line in\nthe city: the Gran ville/Victoria. The\nlane was thrown out because a few\nmerchants on one side ofthe street\nwould lose 30 parking spaces for a\ncouple hours a day. Some of them\nhave parking in the back and the\nlarge Safeway lot is right there.\"\nDavies also said that she feels\nOwen's insensitivity to other parts\nto the lower mai nland\u00E2\u0080\u0094in this case\nRichmond\u00E2\u0080\u0094is cause for concern\nand typical of politicians who are\nonly worried about their political\nlives. \"I think he doesn't give two\nhoots about these regional issues. I\nam very commi tted to them.\" She is\na member of the GVRD and the\nTransit Commision\u00E2\u0080\u0094a combination she believes could be rewarding for the entire lower mainland.\nDavies fears that the denial of\nthe lane on Granville could start a\ntrend which would make it much\nharder to put lanes in elsewhere,\nsuch as Broadway, a 50,000 people\nper day route which includes a\nheavy load to UBC. The merchants\non Broadway and 10th avenues\nwill have the same complaints as\nthe Granville merchants, but there\nare more of them. She is worried\nthat if council backed down to 30\nmerchantsit will immediately back\ndown to a higher number.\nSeeman is fan of rapid transit\nfirst to Coquitlam and then to Richmond, believing that the future\nnumbers will warrant the lines. He\nfavours the Cambie route over Arbutus for the Richmond line and\nproposesre zoning the adjacent land\nto fund it.\nOwen wants to know whether\nSeeman has spoken with the line's\npotential neighbors to see whether\nthey want the line there and\nwhether they want their land\nre zoned.\nDavies would like to see as\nmuch done with buses as possible\nbefore committi ng to having a transit line putin anywhere. She added\nthat \"unfortunately some people\nwill not take a bus. Rapid transit is\nthe Cadillac of commuting and may\nbe necessary to get certain people\nout of their single occupancy vehicles,\" Davies said.\nSeeman wants to see a lot of\n\"I was surprised he would say\nsuch blatantly racist statements,\nknowing that he was being taped. I\nassumed he was going to get into\ntrouble or try to deny it, but I di dn't\nexpect it to blow up this big,\" he\nsaid.\nReform Party members are\neager to distance themselves from\nBeck's views. When asked if the\nprotesters were justified in their\nactions, University of Toronto's\nReform party president Daniel\nProussalidis said they were. \"I'm\nglad they did it. I don't want him.\"\n\"His opinions simply don't jive\nwith the party or its policy,\" he\nadded.\nProussalidis said Beck slipped\nthrough because he didn't let on\nabout his views until recently. \"He\nhad never made any mention beforehand that he had such wacko\nideas. We don't want to be used\nthat way.\"\nBeck is not the only questionable candidate the party has had to\npurge.\nIn April, the party nullified\nformer Tory MP John Gamble's\nnomination as a Toronto-area Reform candidate because ofunspeci-\nfied right-wing views and his dealings with controversial teacher\nPaul Fromm\" who wasbeinginves-\ntigated by education officials for\nlinks to neo-Nazi groups, according to a Canadian Press article at\nthe time.\nMembers ofthe Toronto-based\nracist group Heritage Front endorsed Gamble at the nomination\nmeeting, although Gamble said in\nthe article that he had never met\ntheir leader, Wolfgang Droege, before he showed up at the meeting.\nAnd a recent Globe and Mail\narticle features Reform candidates\npresently running \"who have\ndabbled with western separatism,\nothers who believe it would be best\nif women stayed home to look after\ntheir children, and others who think\nimmigrants are a drain on society.\"\nCritics say it reflects badly on\nthe party that it attracts such candidates.\n\"[The party] is not going to\ncome out and say they're racist. Yet\nthey're tapping into racist undercurrents that exist in certain segments of our society,\" said Ng.\nYorkstudentcouncil president\nJeff Zoeller, who helped organize\nthe protest, said that Beck's resignation and the publicity surrounding it is \"the most amazing win\nwe've had in a long time. It's great\nthat such a small group of students\ncould affect a national election.\"\nWriters berate Customs censors\nby Christopher Taylor\nMONTREAL (CUP) \u00E2\u0080\u0094 In a rare\nmove against a western industrialized nation, the International PEN\nwriter's union has condemned the\nseizure of books by Canada Customs as a serious violation of the\nright to free speech.\nPassed at PEN'S 60th International Congress in September in\nGalicia, Spain, the resolution not\nonly criticizes Canada Customs'\nactions, but also \"calls on the government of Canada to dismantle\nthe system which permits such seizures to take place.\"\n\"I wish it meant we were goi ng\nto see some real changes,\" said\nNancy Flemming ofthe Book and\nPeriodical Council of Canada. \"As\nit is, it means we are embarrassed\nin front ofthe world.\"\nThe resolution on behalf of\nPEN's 12,000 members comes after seven years in which the government has stepped up border\nseizures of works considered obscene.\nIn that time, Canada Customs\nhas detained a prodigious 5000\nbooks a nd periodicals, largely destined for gay and lesbian bookstores.\nFollowing on their distinguished tradition ofbanning James\nJoyce and D.H.

He believes that the \"illegal suite problem\" could be solved\nby simply making illegal suites legal and either bringing them up to\ncode or relaxing the code. Owen\nwants Seeman to know that council has been legalizing suites for a\ncouple of years and would continue\nto do so if he wins.\nand Le Dernier Mot, a highbrow\nbookshop in Montreal\u00E2\u0080\u0094are manifold.\n\"Any small publishing companies or distributors\u00E2\u0080\u0094gay and lesbian, feminist, new age\u00E2\u0080\u0094are hard-\npressed,\" said Jackie Manthome,\nexecutive director of PEN Canada.\nShe cited the case of Inland\nBooks in New Haven, Connecticut,\nwhose detained shipments in May,\nat 470 kilograms, represented one\nofthe largest detentions in the history of Canada Customs.\n\"It could cause Inland and others to evaluate whether they want\nto deal with Canadian booksellers,\" said Manthome. \"It could also\nlead to self-censorship, in terms of\nwhat booksellers are willing to\ncarry.\"\nAny hope of a policy shift under Kim Campbell died with her\nreorganization ofthe cabinet, which\nwill move Canada Customs from\nthe Ministry of Revenue to the\nMinistry of Public Security.\n\"The shift is interesting, just\nas it's interesting that they moved\nImmigration to Public Security,\"\nsaid Manthome. \"It shows a certain mindset on the part of the\ngovernment.\"\nPEN's resolution comes on the\nheels of that of the International\nBookseller's Federation, whose\nGeneral Assembly adopted a similar declaration in Belgium on 15\nJune.\nBut while PEN will continue\nto publicize its resolution, particularly after the 25 October election,\ntheir attention will now turn to the\nLittle Sisters case. The Vancouver\nbookstore is challenging the\ngovernment's constitutional right\nto detain books and periodicals,\nprior to their having been found to\nviolate a Canadian law.\nOn 27 September, the government was granted its third delay,\non the grounds that three years\nwas insufficient time to prepare its\ncase. Slated to testify for Little Sisters on behalf of PEN were such\nCanadian luminaries as Pierre\nBerton, Timothy Findley and Governor General's Award winner Nino\nRicci.\nGiven another delay of up to a\nyear, it is unlikely that the conservatives will undergo a sudden ideological change\u00E2\u0080\u0094or that opposition\nparties will force the issue onto the\nnational agenda.\n\"Having been waging this\nbattle for five years, I have no faith\nthat even a resolution from International PEN will have an effect,\"\nsaid Flemming. \"The only thing\nthat will make a difference is a\ncourt judgment, and now that's\nbeen delayed once again.\"\n/*Findleyat\\nLittle \u00C2\u00AB\n^ Sister's ^\n%benefit^**\n<3anad5an author Itonothy\nB1n*r^lKan\u00C2\u00BB\nWMteheadappearedatabenefifc\nfor Lifts* Sister's Gay and Les*\nbian Bookstore at the Zunl Cafe\nlast Sunday.

TUESDAY 26 OCTOBER 1993\nTHE UBYSSEY Perspective\nBeing a woman is dangerous to one's health\nby Sandy Wilson\nWomen often feel uncomfortable in their doctor's office.\nThey maybe reluctant to discuss\na problem for fear of sounding\nlike a \"complainer.\" They may\nfeel they won't be believed or\nheard, or perhaps they just can\nnot understand medical jargon.\nThese feelings are not\npart of their imagination. Medical language, therapy and communication may be gender biased. This bias is covert and insidious, and it may result in consequences not fully understood\nby the female patient.\nFor example, a female\npatient may feel depressed after\nthe birth of her child. It is true\nthat hormones play a part in\nthis condition, but so might facts\nlike her husband workinglonger\nhours at the office, or the patient\nmissing the companionship of\nher colleagues at her old job.\nShe may be diagnosed\nwith \"postpartum depression.\"\nSocioeconomic details in her life\nare not really a part of this diag-\nnosis.Perhapslabellingherwith\n\"husband goes vacant\" is more\ndescriptive as a label. Regardless, sheislabelled as pathological, and this adds to her previous problems. Perhaps sheis now\nplaced on medication.\nNow that this \"problematic\" and \"medicated\" woman is\nlabelled, society can dismiss the\ncomplex problem of women's inequality. Medication is expressive. Dulling one's ability to\nlearn and to use coping strategies effectively, it keeps this\nwoman from being assertive,\nangry, and \"heard\" in a patriarchal world.\nBetter that women complain of feeling \"drowsy, dopey\nor depressed,\" as history has\ndescribed us, than to make demands for equal child rearing\npractices. It is not just diagnosis\nthat contribute to poor health\nand bad feeling, for women in\nhealth care\u00E2\u0080\u0094gender bias is re-\nflectedin medical language and\ncommunication as well.\nIn 1971, Ruth\nCooperstock, a sociologist in\nCanada, interviewed doctors\nand had them describe the \"typi\ncal complaining patient.\" Of\nthese physicians, 72 percent referred to the female patient.\nA more in-depth analysis of this data revealed gender\nproblems with communication.\nMen, it was found, tend to describe their symptoms, while\nwomen describe their symptoms and \"explain how they\nmake her feel.\" The notion of\n\"complaining\" was linked to\n\"expression of feelings.\" This\nfact reflects a subjective interpretation of the word \"complaining.\" Perhaps a feminist\nreading would conclude that\nmen withdraw while women\nopen up when discussing\nhealth concerns.\nThe point is, if doctors\nthink men are \"describing\"\nwhen they are, in fact suicidal,\nandthatwomen are \"complaining\" when they are just \"describing\", incorrect treatment\nwill follow. Gender bias in diagnoses, language and communication make being female\nhazardous to your health.\nBesides gender bias infiltrations in medicine, women\nmay be subjected to paternalism in the office visit. Medical\npaternalism may be an unconscious process for physicians.\nWomen, particularly womenin\nor leaving abusive relationships, will not find paternalism helpful. The task these\nwomen are trying to achieve is\na \"reclaiming of autonomy.\"\nFeminists suggest a cooperative relaitionship between physician and patient. Words like\n\"it will be okay, dear\", or \"111\nmake your decisions\" do not\nsatisfy the developmental needs\nof these women.\nIn fact the physician\nwho is in a controlling position\nwill signify the woman's\nabuser, whether or not this is\nrealistic. Past feelings of fear\nand helplessness will recur in\nthe victims. Physicians may\nwrite \"on welfare\", \"sexually\npromiscuous\" or \"wearing no\nmake-up\" on the chart. These\npractices reflect sexist, class\nvalues. They reinforce patriarchal agendas from out therein\ntherestoftheworldratherthan\npromote a woman's health.\nThe media, your mother,\nfather and women friends may\nbe equally guilty in the social\nconstruction of medicine by using language that does not reflect a health self-concept for\nthe female.\nFor example, women\nthemselves often use the phrase\n\"on the rag\" to describe menstruation. A mother who explains that \"down there\" is\n\"whatever\" is not giving words\nto name her daughter's experience. A girl with no name for\nher clitoris can only relate to\nthis part of her body through\nmystery and fear. Perhaps she\nwill disassociate and not relate\nto it at all. A young girl who\nhears that some pharmacy com-\npanyhasapillwhich will \"cure\"\nher of menstrual cramps, is set\nup to feel badly about her body.\nWith the advance of\nAIDS, now more than ever,\nyoung teenage girls need words\nto describe their body parts accurately. They need words to\nmanage the imbalances between men and women when\nthey negotiate sex. Words are as\nimportant as contraception!\nWords express, create, and empower women. For example,\nwomen who believe the uterus\nis an integral part of their psychological and physical makeup feel less pain giving birth\nthan women who believe the\nuterus is an involuntary muscle.\nAlcoholics Anonymous\nhas known the value of words.\nAlcoholics Anonymous clients\nbegin their meetings stating, \"I\nam an alcoholic\". The rhetoric\ntransforms them. It says, \"-because I take up this present\nspace with these words, I claim\nwhat I am, I end tiie denial of\nthe past. I commit to something\nnew.\"\nWomen * must believe,\nthemselves. If words and labels\ndo not match their experience\nin a health care setting, they\nmust be retracted, resisted and\nreformed by themselves. Take\nback those things, words and\nlabels that do not belong.

Their travels and spiritual\nquests made for an evening of\ncontemplation, containing bo A a\ndenial of anthropocentrism, and a plea\nfor bio-diversity and an understanding\nof geospiritualism and animism in\ncultures rich with plant knowledge and\nintimate with their environment.\nWard made a valiant attempt to\ndescribe the spiritual traditions of\nTibetan Buddhists, and their perception\nof spirituality. He discussed the\nimplications of dealing with something\nas minute as a flea being an equal\nplanetary denizen. He also discussed\nthe many Indiginous Peoples of the\nAmericas who make no distinction\nbetween the animate and the inanimate, because, \"to heal yourself, you\nhave to move through sacred geogra-\nphy.\"\nWard dealt with a question about\nthe Dalai Lama sayingthat he was the\nlast in the line of Lamas. If for instance\nthe Dalai Lama merely did not confer\nwith his priestly retinue on his\ndeathbed, that alone would break a\ntradition of centuries and make it next\nto impossible to locate his next\nreincarnation.\nDavis quoted a Voodoo enthusiast\nas saying \"Trie whites sit in church and\ntalk about God, the [Indigenous\nPeoples of The Americas] chew plants\nand talk to God, but we dance in the\ntemple and become Gods.\" He also\npointed out that when mythologist\nextraordinaire Joseph Campbell was\nasked if there was any country in the\nNew World where people actually\npractised their religion, he responded,\n\"Haiti\".\nDavis described Voodoo\npractitioners as being in dread of death\nnot as a finality but* as a stage in which\ntheir 'ti bon ange (good little angel)\ncould be taken over by someone else's\nspirit in the year-and-a-day that their\nspirit would wander after death.\nDavis characterised the US as a\nsurrealistic society. For an example, he\ngave the \"grieving rooms\" in schools\nin Washington, D.C., which are places\nwhere students can be taken to be\nconsoled about having friends shot or\nkilled by handguns. \"Of course, you\ncould try to do something about the\nhandguns\", he said shaking his head,\n\"but that's a Canadian view.\nAfter this enchanting evening's\nexperience, I found myself musing,\n\"too bad it wasn't a wine & cheese, so\nI could entitle my piece 'Of Buddha &\nGouda,' or a demonstration of Haitian\nVoodoo by turning an audience\nmember into a zombie so I could\nentitle its You'll Do For Voodoo.'\"\na^v^c^ * Supijidg\nAROUND the World\nbetween COVERS\nby Tanya Storr\nSeven writers from many parts of the planet gathered on Thursday night to share their\ninsights on the global village.\nDuring the evening, their words took us to rainforests in Brazil, barracks in Czechoslovakia, and to the 1698 th meeting of a literary society in India, among other wild and\nwonderful places.\nPB9J\nwrite\npv^a iou si lunnn-) \"mui\"\nThe*:Global::V:UI^\u00C2\u00A9-\u00C2\u00BB\nmN^viiiNTiiNAftaNil;\nWRlTER&^lt^lllllill!:\nP^Joilr-tanelWo^\n2il^ob^|llllllllllllllll;l:llli\nJoy Harjo, a Native American poet, was especially powerful. Her poems ranged from\na biting satire about her experience of crossing the US-Canadian border to a beautiful\nprayer called \"Eagle Poem.\"\nVikram Seth, author of the novel A Suitable Boy read from his 1349-page saga\ndetailing the life of a family in India in the early 50's.\nSeth's numerous writing style made him a great hit with the audience, and he\npromised us that his book wouldn't break our pocketbook, but it may break our wrists.\nCanadian authors Carol Shields and Thomas King both explored the subject of sex\nand marriage in their novels.\nShield's The Stone Diaries examines the life of a woman stuck in an unsatisfying\nmarriage, while King's protagonist in Green Grass, Running Water has two lovers\nbecause she is afraid of commitment. Both authors managed to be both humourous and\ndisturbingly realistic.\nJosef Skvorecky immigrated to Canada after the Soviet takeover of Czechoslovakia in\n1968. His reading took us behind the scenes in a Czechoslovakian army barrack, where the\nsoldiers had only one two-month-old copy of The Armoured Fist for reading material.\nAlthough Skvorecky's strong Czech accent was at times difficult to understand, he\nsuccessfully conveyed his premise that there is no room for creativity and individuality in a\ntotalitarian regime.\nTei Yamashita, A Japanese-American writer who is married to a Brazilian, read to a\nbackground accompaniment of Brazilian music.\nShe told us that the largest community of Japanese people outside of Japan reside in\nBrazil, and that she spent 10 years following their stories. She denounced clearcutting of\nthe rainforest, and labelled one Brazilian state, \"the world's largest market for chainsaws.\"\nCanadian writer Greme Gibson read from his latest novel\nGentleman Death, His reading revealed his strong talent for creating\ncharacter and setting a scene.\nLines such as \"Her face convulsed like a skin of water coming\nto aboil\" were very visually expressive. I almost felt I was sitting in\ndie kitchen with his characters as he described their movements and\nconversation.\n\"The Global Village\" was an ambitious event to pull off,\nconsidering the great variety of writers present, and the organizers\ndid it in style. Although we only got a quick glimpse of each writer's\ntalent, we walked away curious to leam more.\nby Simon Matifasevic\n\"I'll have a Manhattan,\" he said.\n\"Coffee,\" I said.\nJosef Skvorecky looked at me with eyes that\nhave seen Nazis. They are the kind of eyes that\nmake you want to look away. But you can't\nHonest Czech eyes that reflect a soul tempered by\nthe rigors of life in a country first occupied by tiie\nNazis and then crushed by Commmunists.\nWe sat in the lounge at the Granville Island\nHotel, his Manhattanglowing orange in the soft\nafternoon light. His soft hands wrapped the glass\nand he sipped slowly, softly, without sound. He\nsmiled. I smiled.\nI asked about how he started writing. He\nexplained that when he was young he was sick\nand couldn't participate in sports for about a year.\nHe read. Then, at the age of nine, he started\nwriting.\nThe whole time we spoke he looked me in\nthe eyes. He asked if there was anything he could\nget me. He suggested a Manhattan. I explained\nthat there was a jazz thing I had to do later that\nnight and that I would probably drink there.\nHe was embarassed when I told him how\nbrilliant I thought he was. He told me that the\nbiggest problem he had whim he was starting out\nwas dialogue. Good dialogue is difficult to write.\nHemingway's A Farewell to Arms was an\ninspiration-dialogue didn't have to be preachy or\nrelate pertinent information. It was most realistic\nwhen it was about nothing in particular. The way\npeople really speak\nHe carefully lifted tiie glass and replaced it\non the napkin.\nHe spoke softly. His voice barely reaching\nmy hungry ears. He seemed suprised I wasn't\nasking him tiie usual reporter questions. He\nwondered if I would have enough for the article. I\nreassured him.\nThe waiter came back. Another coffee\nplease. Make that two. I told him that I\nwould like to be a professional writer. He\nlooked at me with those writer eyes. He\nknew what it was like. I saw the memories\nthere. In his eyes.\nHe enjoyed writing the detective\nstories. It was easy and it was hard. He had\nto use both parts of his mind. Creative, for\natmosphere and tone. Logic, for plot and\ndetails. It was fun though. Read Raymond\nChandler. Excellent writer. Not great logic\nbut beautiful style and great reading.\nHe drank his coffee in small sips. Little\nbits of caffeine. Holding the cup like it\nwould break, he told me about a Chaplin\nfilm where Chaplin playing an aristocrat\nends up doing television because there is\nnothing else he can do. Chaplin screws up\nthe commercials but they end up being an\nunbelievable.\nOne of the Writer's Festival people\ncame to tell him his ride was ready when he\nwas. He nodded acknowledgement. The\nmessenger left He apologized. I told him\nthere was no reason to. He explained that he\nwanted to rest before his reading later that\nnight\nI stood up too quickly. He rose slowly\nmoving the mass of his wisdom and his\nyears. We walked slowly. Slight limp.\nOut in the sunshine we walked toward\nthe Writer's Festival headquarters. He said it\nwas nice to meet me. I said it was nice to\nmeet him. We shook hands and parted. I\nwalked out alone. In the cold sunlight I felt\ndifferent\nImpressions of\n'1-Skvorecky ;\n^uojiBnqnniB-jjas jo a]88i8 aip jo 'X8oiouqoai jo isajja ouoqdna\naqi ]Bqj sj *sqSnB[ uosqiQ ,,11 inoqB oi8bji 8uiqiauios

I had been\nthere for all of two minutes when\nsuddenly I'm agreeing to skip my\nevening class, and instead, cover the\nBuffalo Tom show at the Town Pump\nthat night\nAnd I ask you\u00E2\u0080\u0094with my best\nrhetorical grin\u00E2\u0080\u0094why?\nDon't get me wrong, I like\nBuffalo Tom\u00E2\u0080\u0094it's just not the kind of\nshow I go out of my way for,\nespecially when it compromises my .\ndream of becoming an educated\nservice clerk, waiter, or whatever it is\nthat B A grads do out there in the big\nworld beyond university.\nBuffalo Tom\nw/ Betty Serveerte\nMOSH 'N STOMP\nThe Town Pump\n20 October\nAnyway, I swallowed this litde\nmoral dilemma, and dutifully set off\nfor the Pump to interview singer/\nguitarist Paul Janowitz about the tour\nand the new album Big Red Letter\nDay.\n\"Without a doubt we're happy\nwith this record. In contrast to the\nother albums, there's less that we\nwanted to change afterwards. I think\nit's because we've gotten better at\nrecording, but also because we've had\na lot more time just to get things right.\n\"With all die studio time we had\nthere wasn't really much excuse to let\nthings go, and dren say afterwards,\n\"Shit, we should have fixed this, or\ndone that,' which is something we've\ndone in the past I like to think that\nwe're progressing.

(604) 822-2665 (UBC-BOOK) FAX (604)822-8 592\nif I thought differently.\n\"As far as the tour, it's been\ngoing really well. We've been touring\nwith these two bands (Holland's Betty\nServeerte and The Verlaines, who\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nwithout visas\u00E2\u0080\u0094couldn't get up to the\nshow) and I love both bands musically, so the vibes are great\n\"Most shows have been selling\nout It's early in the recdrd so we\ndidn't really expect much, but the\nreaction has been really solid.\"\nAnd solid, as far as the show\nwent, is as good a word as any to\ndescribe the band's performance. Or,\nhow about tight Or honest\nThough they were a little rough\nstarting, the band soon caught the\nrhythm and played a solidly frenetic\nshow.\nThe sold-out crowd was certainly\nappreciative, warming up to a steady\nbop as the concert progressed, I\nwonder if a good or bad performance\nwould have mattered to the already-\nconverted, uncritical crowd They had\npaid their bucks, and they were going\nto enjoy the show. (With, of course,\nthe obligatory mini-mosh developing,\ncomplete with swimmers.)\nAnother reason to explain such a\nhappy crowd may well have been\nbecause of Betty Serveerte. This Dutch\nquartet, in the absence of the\nVerlaines, played a great extra-long\nOpening set They certainly rivalled\nBuffalo Tom's tightness, and also\nthrew in some great drawn out\nwailin* guitar to give the evening a\nlittle bit of\u00E2\u0080\u0094how you say\u00E2\u0080\u0094an edge.\nVoguing to FrUVOUS\nby Ruta Fluxgold\nMoxy Fruvous are one talented\nbunch of guys\u00E2\u0080\u0094they can harmonize\nlike nobody else that I know. This\nband has been corn-pared to the\nBarenaked Ladies, but other than the\nfact that both are from Canada, the\ntwo have virtually nothing in\ncommon. Fruvous relies on then-\nvoices to entertain, and entertain they\ndo.\nMoxy Fruvous\nHARMONIC BLISS\nVogue Theatre\n20 October\nMoxy Fruvous is a band with\nvery strong politically correct\nviewpoints. Almost every song has a\nmessage, ranging from \"Lazy Boy\"\n(an anti-TV song) to \"War in the\nGulf.\" Even though these song have\nthe potential to turn you off of\nFruvous, they don't because the\nharmony of their voices entrances you\nand the lyrics are written in such a\nway that make you chuckle at the\nsame time it makes you think.\nTo see Moxy Fruvous live is to\nreally experience the full talent of this\nband. Fruvous got their start busking\nin various cities around Canada and\ntheir experience in live performance\nreally makes a difference in their\nshows. The band punctated their lyrics\nwith props and kept us entertained\nduring the songs with litde skits and\ndialogues.\nThey also sang the crowd\npleaser, \"Green Eggs and Ham\" to\nwhich the dnimmer/vocalist Jean and\naccordion player/vocalist Dave acted\nout the lyrics in full costume.\nThey parodied themselves when they\nsang a grunge version of their first hit,\n\"King of Spain\" for an encore to show\nthat they really are stupid for not\ncapitalizing on the trend, as one\ncomment made by a band \"character\"\npointed out.\nThe best part of the concert came\nat the end of the show. To those of you\nthat have never been to the Vogue, you\nreally must go, it has the best acoustics\nof any concert hall in this city. This\nwas -probably the reason why Moxy\nFruvous sounded so good when for\ntheir last song they sang a cappella and\noff-mike \"GulfWar Song.\"\nThere are few things that I can\ncriticize about this show. First are the\nseats in the Vogue. They have not yet\nbeen replaced and really stand out in\nthe newly refurbished venue. The\nother thing that really got on my\nnerves was the amount of do-do-do in\nthe lyrics of the songs. They sound\nnice and all but when you hear a few\ntoo many, they become as annoying as.\na mosquito's buzzing.\nWhen Moxy Fruvous comes back\ninto town (and they will) I advise\nanyone who likes the band's tape to go\nand see them live\u00E2\u0080\u0094it's ten times better\nin person. Even if you remotely like\nthis band, you'll have a great time\nbecause they put so much effort into\npleasing the audience that the music\nalmost takes a back seat\nSpearman jazzes\nwith high heavy kick\nby Simon Matijasevic\nFucking intense. I thought this\nwas going to be some boring \"muzak\"\njazz. I was totally wrong. These guys\nwere fanatstic.\nMy friend Dave and I got there a\nlittle early. We sat We talked. We got\na litde bored. Dave suggested beer. I\ncouldn't agree more. So we waited and\nsipped bur beer.\nGlen Spearman Double Trio\nJAZZY ARTICULATIONS\nGlass Slipper\n21 October\nThe show started half an hour\nlate. Five minutes into it, I decided that\nI could have sat there drinking beer for\na year and it still would have been\nworth it\nDid I like it? Fuck, yes.\nThis music was unreal. It was\nbetter than real. The Glen Spearman\nDouble Trio are incredibly talented\nmusicians playing music that makes\nthe rest of us look like a bunch of\nidiots. I couldn't get over it. I'm\nhooked. It was like drugs. The first\none's free. But now I'm a junkie. I'll\npay through through the nose.\nThe sextet is the result of joining\ntwo trios: Glenn Spearman's regular\ntrio, which includes drummer Donald\nRobinson and bassist Ben Lindgren\nand the group Room consisiting of\nsaxophonist Larry Ochs, keyboardist\nChris Brown, and percussionist Willy\nWinant\nI had never been to a live jazz\nshow before. I'd heard tapes. But this\nwas different For me it was like a\nbaptism by fire. They got up on stage\nand just went like nuts. Being a jazz\nvirgin and all it was a little difficult for\nme to figure out just what the hell was\ngoing on at first But when I did. Oh\nbaby.\nPercussionist Willy Winant\ndeserves special mention. This guy is\nwild. He has more energy than a\ndozen super-charged Energizer\nbunnies. He was bahing and smashing\nall night long. I was getting tired just\nlifting my pint of beer. Boom. Boom.\nBoom. It was excellent He was totally\nout of control.\nThe whole group was incomparable. The way that the different\nsounds and textures within the group\nitself blended together to make a\ncompletely unique sound was\nbeautiful. It was really unreal.\nI can't tell you how cool this was.\nIf you ever have an opportunity to\nhear these guys live, do it. You won't\nregret it. I promise. TUESDAY 26 OCTOBER 1993\nTHE UBYSSEY Perspective\nCampus paper waste measured in reams, not sheets\nbv Gwylim Blackburn\nUBC uses a lot of paper. Aside from our notes and\nessays, books and handouts,\nthe campus itself blows with\npaper\u00E2\u0080\u0094literally. This does not\nseem entirely necessary.\nThe two main forms of\npaper we see on campus are\nadvertisements and newspapers.\nThe ads, posted on\nwalls, doors, desks, benches,\nbicycle, cars, and trees, range\nfrom ballets to beer gardens\nand they are s wampingin their\nnumbers. The regular student\npapers sit in doorways, hallways, and cafeterias.\nStopping to really notice this, one might ask, \"Why\nso much?\".\nThis answer is simple\nfor Tom Brasseur a staff member at the Peak, SFU student\npaper, which publishes 10 000\ncopiesaweek,\"10000isamagic\nnumber; most papers are like\nthat\u00E2\u0080\u0094they have to set a minimum rate for the ads people.\"\n\"Our best pick-up,\"\nsaid Brasseur, \"would be 9500\nwith 500 to spare.\" Of those\nthat are picked up, a few end\nupin the elusive recyclingbags,\nmost in the more common garbage pails, and the rest are\n\"dispersed\" here and there.\nGraham Cook, news\ncoordinator at The Ubyssey,\nsaid, \"It just becomes much\ncheaper to print more once you\ngo above a specific level.\"\nForads, the purposeis\nsimple. They wish to be seen\nand therefore clutter the specialized bulletin boards in the\nSUB.\nCarole Forsythe the\nAMS coordinator of external\naffairs pins up ads in the typical drown-all-othera style, on\nan oppressively messy and\nbright SUB board.This event\nis in one week, but I know that\nI will have to post them again\non Wednesday,\" Forsythe said.\n\"Before, I used to care\n[about paper use]. Now I just\ndo it,\" she said.\nAside from a monthly\nclearing of SUB bulletin\nboards, expired ads are rarely\nremoved; old ads simply build\nup or fall off.\nA five-week study at\nSFU concluded that students\npick up more news papers if\nthe paper pile is bigger and\nbrighter. The story appears\nthe same for ads; the ones that\nscream in hoards of psychedelic colours are the most noticed.\nIs there an optimistic\nside to high paper use on campus? Well, recycling comforts\nus, even if it is not the whole\nsolution, and it seems that at\nleast most of the student papers collect and recycle\nunclaimed \"oldies\".\nA more obvious and\nfrequently bypassed question\nis, again, \"Why so much paper\nuse?\".\nRyan McCuaig, student council representative on\nthe publication board for the\nthree AMS funded papers, The\nUbyssey, Pow, and Perspectives, questioned if we really\ndo need several student papers each with its own special\noutlook.\n\"The Ubyssey and Pow\nWhere have all the lefties gone?\nby Kevin Carl\nSomeone told me to write\nthis editorial to the music ofwhere\nhave all the flowers gone\", replacing flowers with left-handed desks.\nBut, unfortunately that is impossible. Why is that do you ask? Because there was never any left-\nhanded desks to begin with.\nAs left-handed individuals\nwhy is it in the advanced age of\ntechnology that we live we are\nforced to use right-handed technology. How many of you have sat\nin right-handed desks to write a\nthree hour exam? And, when finished you leave knowing that if\nyou had not been cramped over to\nthe right for the last three hours\nyour performance on the exam\nwould have been much better.\nNever mind sitting for fifteen\ncramped hours of contact time in\nright-handed desks a week.\nWhen I was accepted at the\nUniversity of British Columbia, I\nwas proud, excited, and overwhelmed with the fact that I would\nbe attending one of most recognized institutions in Canada. You\nmust know how saddened I was\nwhen I arrived to find out that an\nestablishment that is held in such\nhigh esteem across our fine nation\nforgot about the left-handed students enrolled in its programs.\nIf the programs offered at\nthe university are supposed to be\nequal opportunity courses once you\nare accepted into the program, for\nto be accepted you must have the\ngrade point average ofacceptance,\nthen why must left-handed students put up with the extra pressure of using aright-handed desk?\nWe have been accepted, so where\ndoes thejustice lie? I truly believed\nthat we left the dark ages a long\ntime ago.\nTeachers no longer remove\nthe pencil from the left hand of\nstudents and place it in the right.\nAlthough, this did happen to me\nwhen I was in grade one and two\nin 1963 and 64. Now the elementary level of education strives for\nthe students individuality, stat-\npeople. Well if this is the case we\nmust have right people running the\nadministration of this university\nbecause they definitely have no cre-\npresident, I would have to say that\na racial injustice is being over-\native skills, and obviously do not\nwant left-handed people to be successful because there are no LEFT-\nHANDED DESKS. If there are any,\nI have seen very few, most of them\nare broken or defaced in some way.\nLegs broken, arms missing,\nscarred or marked up beyond use.\nLast semester I came to the\ncampus two hours early to a final\nexam, knowingthat I would spend\nat least half an hour trying to\nlocate a desk. Everyone knows that\nthe classes are locked duringexam\ntime. Do you know it took me one\nand a half hours to find a LEFT-\nHANDED DESK'\nAdministration and President Strangeway please answer\nme this, why should I or any other\nleft-handed student have to spend\nthat much time worrying about\nsomething that should be there? A\nvery simple equation would show\nthe administration and the president that at least twenty percent\nof the universities population is\nleft-handed. Seeing as how these\nfacilities are not being provided\nby the administration and the\nlooked on this campus and must\ncome to an end.\nThis is why I am calling all\nLEFT-HANDED PEOPLE to rise\nto the occasion, we have been smitten by the right-handed world for\nthe last time. WE WANT LEFT-\nHANDED DESKS IN ALL CLASSROOMS, TWENTY PERCENT OF\nTHE DESKS, AS WELL, WE WANT\nTHEM DISTRIBUTED\nTHROUGHOUT THE CLASSROOM IN PROPER FASHION,\nNOT JUST STUCKFIVEINAROW\nAS IN ROOM B205 OFBUCHANAN\nBUILDING. These are not demands, yet but they are a request\nfrom people who write with their\nleft hand, is it so difficult to understand that the world does not\nrevolve around the right-handed\nmembers of society. We are here,\nand we are here to stay.\nALL YOU SOUTHPAWS\nOUT THERE RAISE YOUR LEFT\nHAND. THIS IS YOUR ISSUE,\nPLEASE GET INVOLVED. WRITE\nTHE PAPER OR IF YOU FEEL\nSTRONGLY ENOUGH ABOUT\nTHIS ISSUE, AS I DO, PLEASE\nCONTACT ME THROUGH THE\nPAPER.\nL.E.F.T.\n[for instance] used to be one\nbut, people have different interests, squabbles occur, and a\nsplit results,\" McCuaig said.\nHowever many people\nread four or five different papers. Though numerous papers available on campus let\neach of us create our own ultimate reading combination, we\ncontrast other campus' such\nas SFU, where The Peak has\nserved a wide range of readers\nfor 65 years.\nSimilarly, perhaps\nfewer posted ads, in the correct\nplaces would counter the run-\naway-traineffectthatdevelops\ni n the ad verti si ng anarchy that\nwe currently use, as well as\nmake a smaller job of then collecting the old ones.\nAs always, turning to\nscrutinize ourselves is more\ndifficult. Readers, writers,\nand just people, must demand\nless.

The hangover will continue for the next\nfive years and it will be worse than having consumed\ntwenty beers. All those Canadians who thought they\nwere merely registering their anger by voting Reform\nand Bloc Quebecois will wake up to find Frankenstein's\nmonster living in one corner of their backyard and a\ngargoyle chained in the opposite Bloc.\nChange can be good. Perhaps it is best that the Bloc\nQuebecois and Reform parties have obtained such status, for now they can only begin to reveal their true\nnatures. Sure, every Western Canadian grumbles about\nQuebec, but are they really prepared to have them leave\nCanada? Do Quebecers really believe that the Bloc is the\nbest thing for their province or have they just opened\nPandora's box?\nWhat does the West expect from the Reform party?\nPeople in this region claim to hate politicians but what\nelse can you call those Reform candidates who are now\nelected as official members of parliament? Are they still\nthe farmers of Alberta? Now that they have become the\n\"grassroots, moral conscience of parliament\" they will\nno longer be able to merely throw out slogans\u00E2\u0080\u0094they may\nactually have to provide their voters with something of\nsubstance. A tour of the parliamentary library may\nhave some merit to the new honourable members.\nHow will time change the new parties? Their policies\nmay bend like Liberals on a fence being blown in a hard\nwind. Brian Mulroney did an about face on his position\nconcerni ng free trade: \"Don't talk to me about free trade.\n... All that would happen with that kind of concept\nwouldbe the boys cranking up their plants in the United\nStates in the bad times and shutting their entire branch\nplants in Canada. It's bad enough as it is.\" Brian\nMulroney 1983.\nWill the Reform party's math improve? It seems\nonly yesterday Bill McArthur, Reform party candidate\nfor Vancouver Quadra, was able to multiply six times\nthree and get nineteen. Will they suddenly realize the\nthree years that they need to reduce the deficit is\nactually in dog years? Or that reducing the number of\nimmigrants will suddenly increase the percentage of\nCanadians that are unemployed?\nPerhaps British Columbians and Albertans were\nexpecting magic from the Reform party. Why were they\nnot as convinced by the Natural Law Party? They, in\nfact, had more to offer: they claimed to be able to reduce\nthe deficit without increasing our stress level. What\nmore could any Canadian wish for?\nCanadians have never been very demanding. They\nwillingly accept most politicians as their representatives as long as they are thought of once in a while. As\nHumphrey Bogart once said to a girl from Saskatoon in\nAcross the Pacific (1942) on being a happy Canuck:\n\"There's a Canadian for you. You let them take oif their\nclothes and they're happy.\" But that is only a foreigner's\nopinion.\nAccording to Pierre Berton \"ACanadianis somebody\nwho knows how to make love in a canoe.\" Let's hope the\nBloc and Reform don't rock the boat before the end.\nthe Ubyssey\n26 October 1993\nTha Ubyssey la a founding nwmbor ot Canadian Univarsity Press\nThe Ubyssey is published Tuesdays and Fridays by the\nAlma Mater Society of the University of British Columbia.\nEditorial opinions are those ofthe staff and not necessarily\nthose of the university administration, or of the publisher.\nThe editorial office is Room 241K of the Student Union\nBuilding.

O.T!!\nIf someone were to ask\nyou what \"O.T.\" is what would\nyou say? (No, the answer is\nnot over-time). October 25-\n29 is National Occupational\nTherapy Week which represents a time to expose our\nignorance and ask, \"What is\nO.T., anyway?\".\nOccupational Therapy, a\ndivision in the School of Rehabilitation Sciences, is a\nhealth care profession concerned with increasing the\nindependence and quality of\nlife of people with physical\nand/or mental disabilities.\nThrough the use of carefully\nselected activities, adaptive\naids, environmental adaptations, education and task\nanalysis, an occupational\ntherapist focuses on improving functioning in the areas\nof self-care, work andleisure.\nThe profession is diverse,\nserving clients of all ages in\nvarious settings including\nhospitals, community programs, schools, private\npractice and rehabilitation\ncentres.\nSo, what does an occupational therapist actually\ndo? An O.T. can work with a\nboy who has lost an arm and\nteach him to use prosthesis\nso he can play hockey with\nhis friends, get dressed independently, and do his\nschool work.\nAn O.T. can work with a\nwoman with multiple sclerosis and teach her energy\nconservation techniques to\nmanage her fatigue, andhelp\nher family to cope with the\npsychological stress.\nAn O.T. can also work\nwith a widowed, elderly man\nwho is depressed, unable to\nlook after himself and losing\ncontact with others, to help\nhim identify ways to maintain social relations with\nother people and develop the\nskills to become more independent.\nThis is just a small\nsample of what O.T. is all\nabout. If you are interested\nin more information, come to\nthe occupational therapy\nbooth in I.R.C. during O.T.\nweek. You may even win a\nprize!\nSo...when our roving\nvideo reporters approach you\nin I.R.C. and ask you \"What\nis O.T., anyway?\" what will\nyou say?\nKaren Gilbert OT 3\nTania Percy OT 2\nGive a hoot,\nDon't pollute\nI would like to commend\nyou on Sarah O'Donnell's\ntimely article on UBC's incinerator dilemma, and\nclarify one of the issues\nraised. The article left the\nfalse impression that UBC\nvoluntarily put the replacement project on hold. In\nJanuary 1993 the Ministry of\nAdvanced Education, and the\nMinistry of Environment\nwithdrew funding for the\nproject and ordered UBC to\nstop the project, pending a\nreport from the Waste Reduction Commission. We are\nstill awaiting that report. In\nAugust the Ministry of Environment issued its polluter's\nlist citing UBC. The irony is,\nthe same bureaucracy that\nwill not let us clean up our\nact, is now chastising us for\nnot doing so. This is a very\nfrustrating situation for\nmany members of the University and surrounding\ncommunity who have spent\nup to 5 years in developing a\ncomprehensive hazardous\nwaste reduction and management plan. Our first priority at UBC is to minimize\nwaste, and waste that can\nnot be eliminated at source\nmust be managed in the most\nenvironmentally responsible\nmanner possible. Lets all\nkeep in mind the impact our\nactivities have on the environment, and reduce our lab\nwaste as much as possible.\nSincerely,\nRandy Alexander\nManager\nHazardous Waste\nMinimization\nSupplemental sin\nSupplemental examinations have long provided students with the chance to improve on final examinations\nwhich, for whatever reason,\nwere less satisfactory when\nfirst written. Given the various restrictions under which\nsupplementals could be written, this opportunity for bettering a poor final grade was\ncreated to help a student who\nwas otherwise doing satisfactorily. Last year, the Faculty of Science eliminated thi s\nprivilege for its students, and\nthis year, the Faculty of Arts\nwishes to do the same.\nWhether you have, in the\npast, used this supplemental\nprivilege of simply wish to\nexpress your opinion on this\nmatter, I want to hear from\nyou.

Lustful prize lo ba announced.\nFear and loathing: on the campaign trail '93\nby Sean Fleming\nI generally restrict my discussions of political matters to\nFriday nights with friends over a\nbeer, but some ofthe statements\nmade by our potential Prime Ministers in the recent leadership\ndebate have annoyed me sufficiently to speak out. A number of\nthe things they sai d were remarkably stupid, ignorant, or deliberately misleading, but I was most\ndisgusted by their comments regarding gun control and capital\npunishment during a question\nperiod dedicated to the issue of\ncrime.\nMr. Chretien, Mr. Bouchard,\nand Ms. MacLaughlin all made\nvery simplistic, brief, and polifi-\ncally correct comments advocating the removal of firearms from\nprivate owner-ship. Mr. Chretien's\nstatement, while the most mild,\nis my personal favorite. I cannot\nrecall the exact wording of it, but\nit was a Chretienesque remark\nwhich wentsomethingverymuch\nlike this: \"Yeah, hunting, that is\nOK, but for me, I don't think\npeople should be allowed to carry\nhandguns.\" This was said in the\ncontext of a discussion proposing\ntighter gun controls, the implication then clearly being that Mr.\nChretien is under the impression\nthat Canadians are presently\npermitted to roam the streets fully\naimed, and he believes this practice should be stopped.\nI have some news for Mr.\nChretien: for all practical purposes, it has been illegal to carry\na handgun in this country since\n1977. There are some exceptions,\nconsisting of individuals who are\ndeemed to require a handgun for\nself defense on the job. However,\nthe vast majority of handgun\nowners are restricted by law to\ntransporting their firearms only\nto and from a firing range. At no\ntime is any non-police officer permitted to carry a concealed\nweapon. How can we trust this\nman to conceive of and implement fair and effective firearms\nlegislationifhe doesn't know what\nthe law actually is?\nMs. MacLaughlin and Mr.\nBouchard did not make any such\nspecific and indisputably wrong\ncomments, but their hand-waving dismissal ofthe rights of firearms owners and their suggestion, without any discussion whatsoever of the details, that the\npresence of guns in the public\ndomain is a fundamental cause of\ncrime in our society do not repre-\nsentthe well-considered opinions\nwe have arighttoexpect from our\npotential leaders. These were reactionary, knee-jerk responses to\na complicated issue with far-\nreaching implications.\nSeveral basic questions need\nto be answered. Which is more\nimportant, a potential reduction\nin the rate of violent crime, or the\npersonal rights and freedoms of\nmany thousands of Canadians\nwho choose to own firearms of\nsome description? Are these concerns compatible? Are you willing to give up the means to defend\nyourself and your family ad\nequately, trusting the police and\ncourts to be able to not only punish\ncrime but to effectively prevent it?\nHow much control are you prepared to give to the state in order\nfor it to fulfill that role? Would you\nprefer to believe that this is your\nlife and it is both your responsibility and your right to defend it?\nWould that only lead to anarchy?\nAnd on a more technical level, just\nwhat are the facts about legally\nacquired guns and crime? We are\ndiscussing Canadian societal\nnorms and behaviour. Arguments\nand statistics that apply to Los\nAngeles or Washington, BC or the\nbackwoods of Arkansas just don't\nwork here. We are very different\nfrom the Americans in some ways\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nand especially so when guns are\nthe topic of discussion.\nFirearms legislation doesn't\ngrab the headlines in Canada like\nthe deficit and unemployment do,\nbut it is an issue which raises some\nfundamental questions about what\nwe want our society to be, how\noptimistic you are about essential\nhuman nature, and what role government should play in our lives.\nRegardless of your views on the\nmatter, it requires a more complete andintelligentresponse from\nour leadership candidates than\nwhat we got in the debate.\nAt the other end ofthe political spectrum, we have Mr. Manning. He suggested in the debate\nthat a referendum be held concerning the return of capital punishment. This is even worse than\nthe remarks of the others. Never\nhas there ever been any kind of\ndefinitive evidence that capital\npunishment is an effective deterrent. It is nothing more than institutionalized revenge and murder.\nA nation that has a death penalty\nin anything other than wartime\nconditions consists of a society of\nbarbarians. The remarks of the\nothers satisfied typical standards\nof mindless political correctness;\nMr. Manning's corresponded to a\nspecial redneck political correctness.\nMs. Campbell seemed to be\nalmost incapable of uttering a sentence which did not include the\nword \"deficit\". It is somewhat difficult to combine \"guns\" or \"capital\npunishment\" with \"deficit\" in a logically constructed sentence, so she\ndidn't have much of anything to\nsay about these issues.\nBut I think Mr. Manning\ndoesn't really believe in capital\npunishment. Nor do I think that\nthe others firmly believe in gun\ncontrol. Their positions on these\nissues are based on what will get\nthem votes. And it is this\u00E2\u0080\u0094the\nproposition on national television\nthat civil liberties, and in Mr.\nManning's case, the right to life\nitself, be voided, not out of ideology\nbut simply to acquire political\npower\u00E2\u0080\u0094it is this that sickens me.\nBut the worst part is that they will\nonly say these things if people buy\nit. The average Canadian knows so\nlittle, and cares so little, that maybe\nwe even deserve leaders like this.\nCOMMUNITY SPORTS\nRacquet\nSale\nDOZENS OF\nBARGAIN PRICES\nEXTRA SPECIALS Regular SALE\nWILSON PRO STAFF 4.5 OVERSIZE (Tennis) $249.95 $ 139.95\nDONNAY COBALT (Tennis) $ 149.95 $99.95\nKENNEX GRAPHITE TRIBUTE (Tennis) $ 119.95 $69.95\nWILSON STAFF MATRIX (Squash) $99.95 $69.95\nKENNEX CARBON PRO 717 (Badminton) $109.95 $59.95\nRUCANOR RS 399 & 499 (Squash) $99.95 $59.95\nOPEN SEVEN DAYS A WEEK\n3355 West Broadway \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 733-1612\nStwkj on ihe french Uliuiera\nEarn up to one full year of transferable Canadian University credits\nwhile studying on the French Riviera, near Nice.\nUniversite canadienne en France offers:\nCourses in English or French \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 One and two-semester programs, Sept.-Dec. and Jan.-Apr.\nSix-week spring session \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Federal and provincial student aid is available\nADDRESS\nCITY\nPROVINCE\nPOSTAL CODE\nTELEPHONE\nFOR MORE INFORMATION contact:\nUniversite canadienne en France\nLaurentian University, Sudbury Ontario\nP3E 2C6 1 -800-461 -4030 Ontario\n(705) 673-6513 collect outside Ontario 12 THE UBYSSEY Culture\nTUESDAY 26 OCTOBER 1993\nSex, lies & alienation: American trademarks\nby Taivo Evard\nSisters, fathers, mothers and\nbrothers frolic in each other's madness\nthrough different approaches to love,\ndeath, and the ominous spectre of\nmale violence in this tight Sam\nShepard performance.\nA Lie of the Mind\nTHEATRE\nplaywright: Sam Shepard\ndir. Ron Chartier\nVancouver Little Theatre\nuntil 30 October\nThis disjointed midwestem slice\nof life, a Shepard staple, involves two\nfamilies linked by a wifebeating son in\none and his victim in the other, his\nwife, who he has irreversibly impaired.\nShepard's plays are offered as\nsocial criticism rather than glorifying\ncommentary, with A Lie ofthe Mind\ndemonstrating the impunity with which\nspousal assault is dealt, as family\nmembers would rather ignore subjects\ntoo painful to discuss.\nInsanity is presented as being\ninherited through upbringing, evident\nin the anal quirks of the parents\neminaling from their children. History\nalso plays a key role in determining the |\npresent, as the circular nature of\nrepeating breakdowns travels down the\nfamily tree.\nWhile most of the women are\npresented as feeble-minded, the men\nare equally distasteful\u00E2\u0080\u0094the old dying\nmisogynist and his young prodigy, his\nson. Indeed, there is a strong sense of\nuncontrollable aggression amongst the\nmale characters, each using violence as\ntheir only means of communication.\nA Lie ofthe Mind follows along\nthe same vein as Sam Peckinpah's film\nStraw Dogs, often referred to as \"the\nfirst fascist work of art.\" Each probes\ndeep into the male psyche, examining\nviolence as an ever-present force in the\nmale decision-making process.\nA minimalistic set, a slow\ntwanging guitar in scene interludes,\nand clouds of dust roaring off the\nchesterfield helped give the play a\nsouthwestern American flair.\nIn judging a Shepard performance, Ihe players must stand up to a\nmuch more harsher reviewer's pen as\nhis plays are unanimously golden. To\nsingle out a single player in this\nproduction, however, would certainly\nbe unfair. Efforts to pick apart the set drew heartfelt applause, a standing\nare also fruidess, as the curtain call ovation from some.\nIn my\nants.\n1 5 Nol\nticeofMo\ntion Q\nThe following notice of motion was given at the SAC meeting dated Oct. 26,\n1993.
