We in Canada are indeed blessed: with freedom, wealth, stability. Even the diversity among the scattered people of this land helps to make life interesting. If we tend to take a little too much for granted, it's because life for all Canadians, has on balance been pretty darn good. However, the time has come where we may no longer be able to afford the luxury of taking things for granted. It's taken us 113 years to achieve nationhood, but the tough road may still lie ahead. This is something that all of us should keep in mind as we celebrate Canada Day, 1980. After all, this is the only country we have, and if we mess it up somehow, we're not likely to get a second chance. WILLIAMSON \_ For the Best Deals on New G.M.

Hydro commission to be appointed The members of the Scugog Hydro Electric Commission will be appoint- ed by Scugog council. Council made the decision to appoint the commission- ers rather than have them elected on the urging of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario which says that local councils "should strengthen their position as the principal public decision making body of the munici- pality." The Association goes on to say further that it believes the provision of electricity in a municipality is no different a service than that of drink- ing water or sewer services which are under the juris- diction of local municipali- ties. Provincial legislation for hydro-electric services in Durham Region which came into effect last year, gave municipal councils the option of appointing hydro commissioners or having them elected during the general municipal elections to be held this November. Scugog's present hydro commission, made up of five members including Mayor Jerry Taylor, endorsed the appointment option at its meeting June 13. BRUTON'S I.D.A.
