LETTER TO THE EDITOR Urgent Action is Needed Engagement Announced Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, MP House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario K1A0A6 Dear Mr. Prime Minister: I wish to remind you that in 1984, you wrote a letter to Jim Sculthorpe, Port Hope, Ontario in which you stated that radioactive waste such as that created by Eldorado Resources Limited Limited (now CAMECO) should be removed from significant populations and away from major bodies of water, namely namely Lake Ontario. In 1988, you intervened when Eldorado proposed to move it just a few miles and Mr. Gerald Merrithew, then Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources, announced the creation of a federal Sit ing Task Force to develop a co-operative siting process. "Opting for Co-Operation" was well received, including support from many citizens in Ontario. It is a five-stage process of which three stages stages have been completed with the Phase III report submitted submitted to Cabinet and yourself in September, 1990, and further further that the report of the Siting Task Force was submitted submitted to Cabinet Committee. Committee. Since that time, we have heard nothing from the federal federal government or from you. We had hoped that the co-operative process would be continued and are therefore therefore at a loss as to why Phase IV has not yet begun. Meanwhile, the shoreline keeps eroding and the mate rial is now within the limits set out by the AECB where removal becomes an imminent imminent consideration. Our patience, Mr. Prime Minister, is wearing thin. Must we bring this problem before the world press again and "Opt for Confrontation", or can you give us definite assurance that the next two Phases of the process will be carried out immediately? This problem, with which we have suffered since 1955, must be finally resolved! We look forward to your early reply. E.

When asked for comment, Advertising Director, Babe Beluga, said Moby was simply misreading the announcement. Pointing to the ad in question, she noted that ""A Whale of A Sale" was used to denote size. "Every store is involved", she said ""It's a large scale event!" In the end, Dick floundered.
