'First we were politicaly sedu- ced, now this is politica rape,» says Paul Pagnuelo, presidenit of the -Toronto-Peterborough-Have- lock Passenger Association. We were betrayed by the Con- servative gevernment,' s'ays Pag- nuelo in response to the announ- ced cuts of Via Rail services by Transport Minister Benoit Bou- chard last Wednesday. «Via runs through five federal ridings, ail *are Tory. We put them back in power on the cam- paign promise to restore and assure rail service.» Devastated ever the Via cuts, which take effect Jan 15, 1990, Pagnuelo is also angry with the arrogant tone the federal govern- ment bas taken over the issue and others. During the summer, the pas- senger association came up with a proposaI, which was submitted to, Bon Léawless, president of Via Rail, with 16 su etion on how to, make the Toronto-Havelock run operate economically. "Our proposaI was totally ignored," says Pagnuele. "(Federal Transport Minister Benoit) Bouchard refused to lis- ten to anyone, the people, muni- cipalities or even ministers." He also finds it ironic that al but one of the terminations of service are on CP lines and'says that it appears to, be a conflhct of interest, with Bon Lawless as presdent of both Via Rail and Durham regional chairman G iry Herrema stated that GO Transit can take over the Toronto-Havelock run, although it weuld go east as far as Peter- borough., "As regional chairman Fim going to be pushing GO" says Hierrema. "It may not Le the Toronto-Havelock line, it may have to be the Northern CP line, but I'm fully aware GO can take one of them.» Herrema, who was- to meet with the mayor of Peterborough vesterday (Tuesday), says, 'It has to be expanded if we are to continue growth in Durham cdOcont feel they (federal government) care what happons to the real person who works,» says Herrema. ."People can't believe they are really doing it. It's like a guillotine coming down overnight. We will no long~er be able te see Canada by rail.' Pagnuelo feels there should be a two-year trensition poriod se that GO Transit can take over the line. This would niean that Via would extend its service by two years. "It is our objective to ensure operation of service for cern- mnuters,» says Pagnuelo. «There is ne question that GO had an interest in taking the lineoever.
