"Who listons to us now? Potticary docried Durham Region council's recent docision to reduce its numbers from 32 to 28 by cutting Oshawa' resn- tation from il to eight and Clarington'sg from four to threo as failing to address the real issue. «Mhers will ho $60,000 a year savinge by cutting threo council- lors from Oshawa, big deal,» ho said. "Who cares how many seats WVhitby council has? Who cares how many seats Oshawa council has? "If were really serious, let's do a.- study and see how much money amalgamation would save.

Ho noted that city council adopted its position last Septem- ber during pro aration Of its submission to't he Goden com- mission on tho future of the GTA. "I think its politica', nothing scores more with the voters than telling Lhem Oshawa wants to tako them over,» said Nicholson. «But what Tommy didn't tell youý ia that part, of Oshbawa's position is that no amalgamation could occur without the support of residents of both municipali- ties in 'a referendum.» Nicholson said the resuits of such a plébiscite might bo sur- sing, "mayho not now, but in heuuro.» Referring to Whitby's histori- cal opposition to amalgamating, Nicholson said that was under-. atandable when Oshawa's popu- lation was 100,000 and Witby's 25,000. "he fear was Oshawa would control everything, but now the eplit is not as wide," ho said. "Oshawa would" have only a little under 50 ?er cent of the population (of a combined Wh-Oshiawa-Courtioe).» Dearing that Oshawa 15 not «activebrseeking amalgamation withWhitby," Nicholson said the two municipalities should at least explore a greater sharing of services such as libraries or snowplowing. «Those thinge won't wipe out borders," he sa.id. However, Nicholson also believes that municipal boun- darnes are not inviolato. "I ask my frienda in VWhitby, would you rather be part of us ojr part of Metro? The province would change the borders of Metro this year.» For 9ispat Edwards was surprised by he councillors' reaction to his lotter. Edwards said ho raisod the matter with Diamond last faîl, but did not activoly pursue it smnce ho and Town council woro prepaig Whitby's own response tothe Glden tak force. 1I mado it clear at that point that I was opposed and that I would raîse it with council," ho said. "We chose flot to-get involved thon, we were more concerned about utng Whitby's position forward. Howevor, Oshawa's decision to resurrect the issue during its GTA referendum campaigni could not ho ignorod, Edwards said. Amenable to any feasible shar- ing of services with its sister muicipality, Edwards said the spirit of coopration hotween Oshawa and Whitby has been dealt a sevore blow. «We aroopen to that kind of discussion (shared services),» lho said. "But what wo are notopen for and rosent, is a unilateral decla- ration rgadig am algamation. «Lot them settlo their own problems.and lot us govern our community and see where we can cooperate.» Edwards noted that Whitby set the standard for amalgamation locally when the former Town of Whitby merged with the thon Township of Whitby in 1968. «When the Region came along ini 1974, wo were the only com- munity in Durham whose boun,» darios were flot changed,» ho said. As for dloser ties with its neighbour to the east, Edwards recalled that the two municipali- ties shared in the cost of- con- structing the Corhott Creek sewage treatment plant in the late 1960a. «W. feel we have done aIl tho things' the government of Ontario is now indicating muet ho done,' ho said. «We planned for the future. Wo gtno government assistance ta change the boundaries and wo were content to -lot the com- munity gvownaturally. "We thought. it was hohind us but ho and hohold tho City ol Oshawa issues a document. Edwards said ho did not want be get involved during the refer- endum campaign, «but I will ho now." Clarington Mayor Diane Hamre shares Edwards' outrage. «Our municipalities (Whitby and Clarigton) have been very patient because you want to ho gnod neighbours," said Hamre. «But there cornes a point whon youlve got to say 'theyve got a hoîl of a nerve'" she said. Hamnre also hiad no objection to dloser ties with Oshawa, noting that her mumcýipality already shares some services with nearby Hope Township. «Wéhave done it for years and the way times are, we have to do more of it," she saîd. "We can ahl look at it, but you don't have to say we're going ta take you over.
