FROM PAGE 1 A Reform Party press release stated that the memberships of the four mon Were terminated for activities judged te bo impreper, unbecoming or likeliy te adversely affect the intereats and reputation of the Party." B ut Allore ciaimed the decision te kick him eut of the party was made because hoe chailenged council's right tci take away Gambie's nomination. In an earlier letton te Man- ning Allore ciaimied counicii vie- lated the party's constitution at ieast six times in its treatment of Gambie. In his suit, Allono refera repea- tedly te Manning and Reform officiais touting the party as an open and democratic 'grasaroots» movement in which the member- ship ranks supreme. Particulan emphasis is piaced on the panty's constitution which would «ensure that the party governed itself the way it wouid encourage others toeontruat it with governing the country," the statement of cdaimnieada. But Ailore maintains that as hia invoivement in the party grow, it became increasingiy apparent" that Manning and oth- ors «vioiated the princigiles, poli- cies and constitution of the party, whiie at the saine time concealing this activity froin party membors and the public. Among his accusations, Aliere charges that: * Manning and Reform offi- ciais imposed thein wiii upon and interfered in the properly organ- ized activities of constituency associations in Ontario; * Manning and Reform offi- ciais discussed internai mattens of membenship and nominated candidates in Ontario with the media, whiie recounse was stili availabie te those affected; (Mlore hiniseif iearned of his expulsion from a newspapen reporter.) * Manning and Reformn offi- ciais conducted party-sanctioned secret investigations of memnbers without the consent or knowledge of those being investigated; Allore denies that lawsuit is revenge (In a previous interview, Allore said hie was subjected to an investigation after complaining about commenta made by a<1arty officiai which hie reaL in MacLean'smaazie. (Shaw denied that the incident was an investigation" and that the party was merely responding to a coniplaint about Allore. When the person would not sub- stantiate te charqe, the matter was subsequently dropped, Shaw said.) While ho preferred not to dis- cuss specific details of charges contained in the Iawsuit, Allore said they are a culmination of events hoe witnessed or had been a part of since becoming a rnem- ber in January 1991. The «final straw» was Muir's response to his counter-proposal regardngthe arbitration o f his memers apeal, Allore said. (Reform officiais insisted that the hearing be held in Calgary by a three-xnember arbitration panel of ar, members. Allore demanded it ne held in Ontario and preferrably headed by a retiredjudge.) Muir's letter merely corrected the page numbering mn the ori- gina proposai and faiied to addrless his concerns, Aliore said. "My attèmpts at arbitration was a iast test of how bona fide these peopie were » hoe said. 'Tins was the finai straw in a series of things which turned out to be untrue. There is a limit te one's toierance.» The 51-year-oid attorney admitted that his iawsuit may be a unique case and that peo le may perceive it as more ofa politicai vendetta than a legai matter.

CJBC CLEANING OUTSIDE WINDOWS For many of us, cleaning outside windows means two things - wot sleeves from the cold wator running down our arm and gotting the laddor to fit windows which are always at inconvenient heights. Fortunately, with the addition of a few convenient tools, you can now wash windows as high as 25 foot in the air quickly and easily while standing on the ground. AIl that is required is a lightweight telescopic aluminum pole, a window brush and a window squoegee - the samo tools the profossionals use. Simply mix a solution of Swish Sparklo glass and window cleaner in water, apply the solution to the window with the brush, remove the brush from the friction fit polo, attach the squeegeo and squeegee the window dry. You will have an entire panel of streak free sparkling windows in less than 2 minutes. And there's no trampling through flower gardons, no wet sîeeves and no f alling off Iadders. It's easy, inexpensive and the kit lasts a lifetime. Corne on down to Swish Clean-It Centre.

Muironey was prime minister and 1 knew the NDP would be a disaster in Ontario," hoe said. "Manning came aiong like a breath of fresh air taiking cern- mon sense and claiming te iisten te people. I beiieved that and was ripe for it.» AIlores solicitor, David Tho- mas of Oshawa, was aise not aware of anyone suing a pelitical party on simlar grounds.

There's ne menit in it whatsoever,» ho repeated. Shaw added that party officiais are net werried about unfavour- able publicity with a federai eiec- tien cal l 4xpected any day new.
