2-ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, DECEMBER loth. 1974 o rono weeklIv t imes __ Second Class Mail Registration Number 6368 Published Every Wednesday* vAt the Office of Publication SUBSCRIPTION RATES Canada $,3.00 U.S.A. $4.50 GOVERNMENT AGAIN BACKS OFF Just before Christmas the Legislature of Ontario gave approval to a watered:down piece of legisiation affecting snowmobiling in the province. This government in Toronto, althougb holding a wide majority in the legislature acts as if the woif was at its heels, and repeatedly backs away from decisive decisions. This back-off is evident in the matter of the snowmobile legislation. It is also evident in a land-use poiicy wbich Premier Davis bas repeatediy said was in the works but bas neyer materialized. The Toronto Centred Region Plan in 1970 was tentatively planned and given pienty of circulation as the direction in wbich the government would be following. Yet today reports state that it would almost be impossible to follow the plan as it bas been over-developed tbrough the past tbree years. Also wby does it take montb after month for a decision on th~e proposal of the CF dump in Hope, again a> locak of decision. In the past four by-election the Conservation government at Toronto bas not faired too well and was away back in the' polling of votes. Premier Davis feels that the government is not getting their message over to the residents of the province. But what message bas he to tell if nothing is ever completed. It appeared in this area that the original legislation governing snowmobiles in the province bad been accepted even to the extent of the snowmobiler. Yet the government backed off and of course the opposition was no better. The legisiation was watered.édown and bas very littie meaning., The most damaging part of the back-off is the allowing of snowmobiiing on municipal roads and to turn this matter back to the municipality to govern if tbey so wish. The act as is now exists could well force snowmobiling off private property and onto municipal roads. Mr. Alex Carruthers is reported to bave supported the retention of this portion of the legislation bu'even thougb he beaded the committee on Al-terrain Vehicles he was voted down. The member from Durham points out that only some 84 municipalities out of 903 bave approved by-laws governing snowmobiling. Furtber he said, "The reluctance of municipalities to enaet by-laws bas, in my opinion, encouraged the operation of the machines on. highways. " Even the manufactures were in favour of the ban of the machines on roads this could also be said of most operators and owners of the machines. It is most puzzling wben the governiment had the support of the majority of the people in the province tbey had to back-off from the original scope of the legisiation. This is hardlyv a leadership in the affairs of the province. The use of snowmobiles is a recreational outing for many in the province and it is flot that this should be curtailed. But the use of roads and bighways is, not the proper place for the machines. The government this year through the Ministry of Na tural Resources is opening uii many- area for the sport and it is here that the mq1st can be made for snowmobiling. t would appear that the governiment in Toronto bas lost contact wîth its people and surely a littie decision making would go a long* way to improve their position with the eetorate.
