Teena Bogner, president of the Newmarket Taxpayers Advocacy Group, isn’t surprised by a report saying government workers get paid more than their private sector counterparts.

Bloated bureaucracy: Do we pay public servants too much? Lisa Queen lqueen@yrmg.com A new report from a public policy think tank that highlights the gold-plated salaries and benefits government workers receive compared to their private-sector counterparts comes as no sur-

prise to a York Region taxpayers’ group. “They have formidable pension plans, they have excellent benefits, and for the most part, where most of us are putting in eight- to 12-hour days, they are putting in their seven-and-ahalf-hour days. Not that I have a

problem with that,” Teena Bogner, president of the Newmarket Taxpayers Advocacy Group said about the study released last week by the Fraser Institute. “And I think the entire bureaucracy, whether it’s provincial, municipal or federal, is quite bloated.”

But residents should consider the wide range of services provided by skilled public sector employees before swallowing a report from a right-leaning organization, said Doug Sheppard, unit chair of Canadian Union ● See STUDY, page 9

Manage your great expectations to survive the holidays

LISA QUEEN lqueen@yrmg.com Come on, you know you do it. Despite years of evidence to the contrary, you picture the holidays as something akin to a Norman Rockwell painting with rosy-cheeked children and loving family members gathered around a perfectly cooked feast. So, why do gatherings of loved ones tend to end up like a scene out of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation instead? All-American goofy dad Clark Griswold may dream of the perfect old-fashioned family celebration but instead ends up with bickering and eccentric relatives, pretentious neighbours, mooching family members, an overcooked turkey carcass, an incinerated Christmas tree, a jelly of the month work bonus, a police SWAT team, a trailer chemical toilet-related explosion and 25,000 energy-sapping outdoor lights. Sound familiar? York Region experts are weighing in with some tips to help manage our great expectations so we don't drive ourselves crazy in the pursuit of perfection. The best way to make the most of the holidays for yourself, not to mention your family and guests who are bound to prefer comfortable glad tidings over stressed out ostentation, is to keep things as simple as possible, according to Thornhill's Sara Dimerman and Newmarket's Kathy Russell.

"Most people want to impress their guests by being the hosts and hostesses with the mostest. They may have the best Christmas ornaments and Mike Barrett/Metroland

Do you have high hopes for the holidays but wind up stressed or disappointed? York Region experts can help you manage your great expectations. Lowering your holiday expectations can put a smile on your face.

hand embroidered towels hanging in the bathroom," psychologist and author Dimerman said. "However, keep in mind that if you overdo things, guests may feel that they could never do as well and may even be reluctant to invite you back for fear of being judged as not good enough. So keep things simple, try not to go overboard in your striving for

perfection and know that your good friends will love you for your flaws and imperfections." Russell, owner of Butler Girl Services concierge and professional organizing company, agreed. "I think the biggest thing is, I always say to people, keep it simple because they go all big, extravagant Norman Rockwell and it just becomes overwhelming,"

she said. "And the other thing that I think is important is write everything down, from everyone you have to buy for to what you have to shop for on grocery day to setting up your house so it's down on paper and it's out of your head." Get any stuff that you can do early out of the way, Russell said. For example, set the dining room table a day or two in advance. "It just makes things simpler so as the day creeps up on us, at least one less thing needs doing." Decorate only the rooms you are going to use, said Russell, adding the technique will curb post-holiday burnout. "Because it's afterwards when everyone is just exhausted from it all and they look at the tree and

they hate Christmas and they hate everything. Just keep it simple, I can't stress that enough," she said. Consider hiring outside help for tasks you just can't stand doing yourself. Butler Girl is offering a holiday special of three hours work for $150. Russell's other suggestions include sticking to a budget, making sure the size of your tree is appropriate for the size of the room and allows for easy flow of traffic and keeping a stash of hostess gifts available so you don't have to rush out when the stores are crammed. Dimerman also offered several helpful hints. "Order in. Even though you may think that this shows less effort on your part, keep in mind that if you're not so frazzled from preparing food all day, you

may be an even more energetic host," she said. "Putting the ordered in food on nice platters may make you feel a bit better about putting in more effort and your guests will likely not be any the wiser." Consider a daytime drop-in open house rather than a sit-down evening meal. Discuss roles that each of your family members can play when entertaining. A smaller child can be responsible for hanging up guests' coats, for example, Dimerman said. "There's no shame in using recyclable paper plates rather than having to load or wish dishes," she said. "Again, no one usually minds and if they do, maybe they're not worth having on your guest list anyway." Prepare yourself in advance, Dimerman said. "If you're used to getting into a fight with your sibling every year, plan ahead to do something different before either of you erupt," she said. "You can't change other people, but changes in yourself have to impact on how others around you respond or react, too." If all else fails, remind yourself that no one else is having the perfect holiday either. "Watch movies about other dysfunctional families coming together so that you are reminded you are not alone and a certain amount of dysfunction is normal," Dimerman said.

Let’s get on with electoral reform

The Thornhill Liberal, published every Thursday, is a division of the Metroland Media Group Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Torstar Corporation. The Metroland family of newspapers is comprised of more than 100 community publications across Ontario.

The Thornhill Liberal is a member of the National NewsMedia Council. Complainants are urged to bring their concerns to the attention of the newspaper and, if not satisfied, write The National NewsMedia Council, Suite 200, 890 Yonge St., Toronto, ON M4W 2H2.

umours of the impending demise of Canada’s first-past-the-post voting system appear to have been exaggerated if recent developments on the electoral reform front are any indication. Then Liberal Party leader and now prime minister, Justin Trudeau, was emphatic throughout the 2015 election campaign that it would be the last conducted using the voting system that had been in place since Confederation. What a difference a year makes. Trudeau’s ambitions to see first-past-the-post replaced seem to have gone off the rails given the confusing scene that unfolded in Parliament this month. The committee tasked with examining electoral reform delivered its majority report recommending the government come up with a new system and put it to voters via a referendum, but that notion was dismissed by Democratic Institutions Minister Maryam Monsef. Instead, she suggested the all-party committee had failed in its mandate and simply kicked the can back to the government. Monsef went on to allege the committee’s membership had overcomplicated the issue. The opposition, naturally, took umbrage and defended their members, while, in some cases, also attempting to hoist Trudeau by his own petard. An easy target, perhaps, given that some Liberal members have expressed mixed feelings on the push for electoral reform in time for the 2019 election and that the prime minister, himself, has suddenly seemed reluctant on the idea, going so far as to suggest that the urgency for reform lessened when his government won power. Despite everything, Monsef says her hope is that some form of electoral reform legislation will be introduced in the spring. To get some sense of what that should look like, the federal government has launched an online survey, at mydemocracy.ca, and sent out information cards in the mail. This, too, has created controversy. Ultimately, democratic reform is a tricky thing, but the Liberals made pursuing it a crucial component of their platform during their election and shouldn’t be able to simply abandon it when the going gets tough. There are numerous ways to gauge support for different voting systems, and by all means pursue them, but remember that many of those who voted to elect this government likely did so, at least in part, because of the pledge to replace the antiquated first-past-the-post with something more democratic. Enough theatre. Let’s get on with it.

Study shows inflated government wages

● From page 1 of Public Employees Local 905, which represents about 5,000 municipal workers in the region. “The Fraser Institute isn’t exactly a progressive group,” he said. “In terms of our wages, I think our members are paid fairly for the work they do. In the public sector, we have workers that are highly skilled and educated. I think of our paramedics at the region. Highly skilled and you’re putting your life in their hands.” Sheppard also questioned why the Fraser Institute didn’t include the astronomical salaries and bonuses taken home by some corporate CEOs. The study, called “Comparing Government and Private Sector Compensation in Canada”, found government workers earned salaries 10.6 per cent higher on average than comparable workers in 2015, the most recent year of data

York Region’s

from Statistics Canada’s labour force survey. The wage gap took into account differences of workers in the two sectors, such as their age, gender, education, tenure, type of work, industry and occupation, the report said. Government workers also surpass private sector employees in other areas, the study said. For example, 89.3 per cent of public sector workers were covered by a registered pension plan compared to only 23.8 per cent of private sector employees. Government workers retired 2.3 years before their private sector counterparts. Public sector workers took 12.7 personal leave days compared to 7.8 days for private sector employees. Private Public sector sector workers were about seven times more likely to be laid off than public sector employees. “With the federal government running a large

deficit and provincial and municipal governments across the country looking to control spending, bringing public sector compensation in line with the private sector would reduce financial pressure,” study coauthor Charles Lammam, the institute’s director of fiscal studies, said in a statement. “Of course, governments need to provide competitive compensation to attract qualified employees, but the fact is wages and benefits in the public sector are out of step with the private sector. Closing the compensation gap would not only help governments reduce spending without affecting services, it would also increase fairness for taxpayers.” The institute promotes a “race to the bottom” mentality, encouraging the slashing of public sector wages and benefits rather than urging better compensation in the private sector, Sheppard said.

to save time, money and reduce waste For many families, shopping and preparing meals comes with a lot of food waste. On average, York Region households throw away $1,500 worth of food each year. Here are some simple tips to reduce food waste and save time and money:

Plan ahead and shop with a list (check your cupboards in advance to avoid buying duplicates)

Buy only what you need; bulk buying or buying on sale is only cost effective if the product is actually used

Choose recipes you can make ahead, giving you more time with your family and friends

Serve smaller portions; preparing or setting out more than they can eat is more food wasted

Freeze leftovers to enjoy later; soups, stews, pasta and casseroles freeze well

5 ways to eat local this holiday season

Simon martin smartin@yrmg.com The Christmas season is synonymous for spending time with family, friends and most importantly good food. This year when preparing to feed the holiday crowd, why not try and avoid the frozen food aisle at your local grocer and pick up food from local producers in the area. It is possible to eat fresh local food this Christmas to go with all the tasty sweets and libations. Here are five places you can go to get local food this Christmas: ● King Cole Ducks, 15351 Warden Ave., Newmarket. Why not try a different cut of meat this Christmas? King Cole Duck is the largest duck farm in Canada. The third-generation family business has 14 farms with more than 140 staff across Ontario. At King Cole nothing is wasted from the duck. Manure is used to fertilize the fields that grow feed for the ducks and duck feathers are processed and sent away to make pillows and jackets. You can visit their new farm fresh store on Warden Avenue. Whole roasted duck, smoked duck breast or

Duck a l'Orange are just a few of the options. For more information visit kingcoleducks.com. ● Bill's Turkey Farm, 2978 Holborn Rd., East Gwillimbury If you want a to go with something more traditional this holiday, Bill's Turkey Farm might just have the bird that is the apple of your eye. The third-generation Van Kempen family has been farming the bird in the Queensville area for 60 years. They process the birds on site and age them in a cooler until they are ready for delivery. Their turkeys go to small butcher shops and grocers across the GTA including Vince's Market and the Queensway Marketplace in Keswick. People can also make an order and pick it up at a store on the farm. For more information visit billsturkeyfarm.com. ● Round the Bend Farm, 16225 Jane St., King Bill's Turkey Farm isn't the only place you can pick up a farm fresh bird. Round the Bend Farm in King offers turkeys for pickup during the holiday season. Their turkeys are grain, corn and soybean fed without hormones. For more information, visit roundthe-

bendfarm.com. ● Thompson Potato Farm, 19228 McCowan Rd., Mount Albert You can't have a proper turkey dinner without a steaming bowl of mashed potatoes. There's no better spot to pick your local spuds than Thompson Potato Farm. The Thompsons have been farming the land on McCowan Road since 1937. They started growing their signature potato crop in 1943. They sell a lot of their products to restaurants in the GTA including a pre-peeled line that is very popular. The potatoes come in 10-pound and 50-pound bags. For more information visit thompsonpotatofarm.com. ● Velvet Sunrise Coffee Roasters, 8-100 Ringwood Dr., Stouffville There's no better accompaniment for Christmas sweets than a cup of freshly roasted coffee. The scent from ground Velvet Sunrise coffee is the perfect way to cap off your festive feast. Mark Hayward roasts more than 1,000 pounds of coffee in house every week. For more information visit velvetsunrise.ca.

The story of Christmas comes alive with the annual nativity pageant at Fairy Lake in Newmarket. The live nativity pageant takes place Dec. 21 to 23, at 7 p.m. and 8 p.m., and one show on Dec. 24 at 7 p.m. The show, A Journey to Bethlehem presented by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the town of Newmarket, is a family favourite for 29 years. While the story dates

back thousands of years, the annual pageant draws in families from near and far, with an average audience of about 500 to 1,000 per show. "This is a great opportunity for the community to celebrate the holidays in a beautiful setting," said Newmarket's special events programmer, Deanna Smith. Not only does the free outdoor show feature a live cast with special appearances by the mayor and councillors, it also features some furry friends sheep, llama and a donkey.

More than 75 volunteers from the church and community help put on the live show, including lighting, sound, and ushering patrons to the show. Plan to arrive about 20 minutes early to allow for parking and walking to the performance area since parking at Fairy Lake will be reserved for accessible parking.

Vaughan International Film Festival marking milestone AdAm mArtin-robbins amartinrobbins@yrmg.com Vaughan's annual celebration of short films has expanded its reach every year since its inception, and 2017 is no different. "Going into our fifth year feels like an anniversary to us," said Mark Pagliaroli, co-founder, along with Antonio Ienco, of the recently rebranded Vaughan International Film Festival. "When we tell people how long we've been around, most people say, 'Wow, I feel like it's been longer.' We definitely feel the same way. With everything we've built over the last five years, especially having come from nothing, we look at this as something of a milestone." To help mark that milestone, the festival is expanding its scholarship program for "up-and-coming artists" to students provincewide. Now Gr. 12 students at any Ontario high school with at least two arts or technology credits (visual arts, music, dance, drama, film, photography, fashion, technological design, construction technology) and an over 80 per cent grade average in their current arts or technology course, can apply to win one of

Submitted

Vaughan International Film Festival co-founder Antonio Ienco speaks to students at St. Elizabeth Catholic High School in Thornhill. three $1,000 scholarships. Alternatively, teachers can nominate a student from their Grade 12 arts or technology program. Expansion of the scholarship program follows last year's decision to accept student film submissions from across Ontario. The deadline for scholarship applications and film submissions is Jan. 31. This year's festival runs four days, from May 15 to May 18. As always, there will be two days of film screenings, an industry seminar day and an awards ceremony to close things out. As for the international film segment, submissions are pouring in with more than 60 already received

from countries around the world including Australia, France, India, Italy, Malta, Portugal, Turkey, the United States and the United Arab Emirates. "Since we see VFF 2017 as a milestone, there's a pressure we're putting on ourselves to make this the biggest festival yet," Pagliaroli said. "We're telling people to expect the unexpected. There will be new venues with more dynamic elements integrated into the events, there will be familiar faces of special guests from previous years and new faces who look to grow with us in the coming years."

Calling all gamers. On Dec. 3, 12 Canadian Cineplex locations, including the one in Vaughan, hosted a free LEGO Dimensions Live launch event. The video game features characters from a mix of the best brands in the universe that join forces and battle in worlds outside of their own to defeat the evil Lord Vortech. Players have ample choice for play, including charac-

ters like Batman, Sonic the Hedgehog, Scooby Doo and even E.T. Players can also use each other's vehicles and gadgets. This specific event kicked-off the league series, which is coming out this March. The family-friendly program is new and is geared toward the younger gaming audience. The four-week event will let LEGO fans come out, play and compete on the big screen. "This is the first time that we've host-

ed an event especially for young gamers and we're so happy with the response," Cineplex spokesperson Sarah Van Lange said. "There was a fantastic turn out at all 12 theatres and Vaughn clearly loves not only Lego Dimensions, but also the opportunity to it on the big screen." Re gistration is required to participate and is open now. For more information or to register, visit cineplex.com.

Stephanie Gaglione has won a prestigious scholarship to a top-flight university, but the 22-year-old Woodbridge woman, who enjoys rock climbing, sees it as a "stepping-stone" en route to the summit. Gaglione, a chemical engineering major at the University of Toronto, was recently awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University in England. "I still have many years of education ahead. I've always tended to think that for something to be truly impactful in your field it takes many years," she said. "Rhodes is fantastic, but I see it as a stepping-stone to what I hope will be a fruitful and world-serving career." She's one of 11 Canadian students, and 95 worldwide, awarded a 2017 Rhodes Scholarship. It's the latest achievement in an already stellar academic career. Gaglione graduated from Thornhill's St. Robert Catholic High School in 2012 with a 99.67 per cent average. During her time there, Gaglione developed a keen interest in science. In Grade 11, she emailed a list of professors in hopes one would offer to mentor her and allow her to gain experience in a lab. To her surprise, a U of T professor agreed and Gaglione spent more than a year doing research at Sick Kids hospital. "I think that's when science really became something that was no longer a lesson out of a textbook, but a field that is constantly changing and I resolved that I was interested in the design field for health," she said. After high school, Gaglione decided to pursue a degree in chemical engineering, with a minor in bioengineering, at U of T.

Stephanie Gaglione, seen at a spirit event with a decorated University of Toronto engineering hardhat, is headed to Oxford University next year after obtaining a Rhodes Scholarship. Following stints as an intern at pharmaceutical firm Sanofi Pasteur and Procter & Gamble, Gaglione switched focus. She landed an internship at the World Health Organization in Geneva where she studied challenges to vaccination and immunization programs in middle-income countries. Then Gaglione garnered a Fulbright Canada fellowship to pursue research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which "revolutionized" her outlook on academia. "When I returned to the University of Toronto, I had an entirely different perspective than the one I left with," she said. Then came the Rhodes scholarship, which Gaglione was surprised she landed. "I felt that I didn't quite fit the mould of a typical student interested in the program," Gaglione said. "At least at the University of Toronto, engineering students aren't usually

the students who decide to pursue a degree at Oxford through Rhodes." Dr. Graeme Norval, associate professor and former associate chair and undergraduate co-ordinator of chemical engineering at U of T, wasn't surprised at all. "She's probably the best student we've had in the last decade," he said. "She's got a good work/life balance, between sports and other activities, but, also, she understands the material almost intuitively." At Oxford, Gaglione intends to focus her studies on biomaterial platforms for delivering vaccines. "I'm particularly interested in drug delivery platforms for low and middleincome countries," she said. After that? "I see myself as possibly pursuing entrepreneurship in the field of biotechnology and perhaps doing that as a professor or as a postgraduate student, but path still undetermined."
