> Bes A STH wt oO Cy. --~ i i _ council of the village of Port 8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tues. November 2, 1982 - Candidates for Area Councillor - JOHN WOLTERS JERRY JACKMAN A resident of Port Perry for over 17 years, I' am married (18 years) with four children. My experience on municipals councils includes two years on the former Perry and two years as area councillor for Scugog Town- ship. Over the years I have also been a member of many local associations and Boards, such as the Agri- cultural Society, Arena Board, Hospital Board, Association for the Mentally Retarded, Meals-on-Wheels, Community Centre Boards in Blackstock, Greenbank, Manchester and Prince Albert, Scout-Guide Parents Association, Scugog Hydro Commission, and as a coach for a girls' ringette team. My business experience included the City of Oshawa Engineering Department, sales of Prefabricated Build- ing Materials and management and ownership in the construction industry. . The main challenge facing both governments and businesses today is rapidly rising costs. To offset this problem, we must review all expenditures, policies and programmes, with an open mind, imagination and flexibility. the new council, in co-operation with the Township staff, will have to make a sincere, concerned effort towards cost savings in all aspects of the Townships' operations. Hopefully, my previous council experience, community involvement, and business expereince would be beneficial in working towards that goal, while maintaining good services to the residents of the Township. MARG WILBUR Margaret Wilbur is seek- Area ing election as Councillor. Marg, husband Jim and their three children live on a farm west of Port Perry. Marg has been involved in politics for many years. She has worked with all levels of Marg has a widespread knowledge of how politics and government government. work. Margaret Wilbur knows Scugog Township well. She helped raise funds for the new Scugog Library as a member of the finance committee. She is vice-president of the Friends of the Library. Marg is a former Scugog rep to the Durham Region of Agriculture and remains a member. She has been active in Ratepayer's and Cottager's groups and was a candidate for council in old Reach Township. Marg Wilbur is interested in environmental protect- ion. She would like to see the Township encourage such measures as recycling. Marg believes in good planning practices. Citizens should have the fullest opportunity to participate in decisions about the future of the Township. Marg Wilbur believes we must fight for property tax relief. Municipal governments are taking on more and more responsibility with less and less cash. Marg shares the general concerns of the people of Scugog Township. She recognizes the need for services to the people that will help them get through the difficult times ahead. There will be some important decisions made in the © next three years. Margaret Wilbur would like the opportunity to help make those decisions. As a candidate for Area Councillor in the November 8th election, I would like to review my performance on Council for the past four years and express my sincerity in seeking to represent you during the next term. During the first two years I was on the Road Committee during which time Queen Street was reconstructed, several miles of pavement laid down in each Ward, new bridges were constructed and I believe roads main- tained to an acceptable level. For the past two years I have been Chairman of the Finance Committee through which I was able to become involved in matters effecting all four Wards. During this time I endeavoured to provide good judgement and maintain tax increases and at the same time provid adequate services. You should be aware that when I first came on Council it was proposed that approval be sought for a debenture of $750,000; I was the lone Councillor opposed and it was subsequently found to be not needed. Council recently endorsed retainer from Uxbridge, I opposed - it was too much. It is being said there are no issues to debate during this election. However, I am sure that major decisions will have to be made. One example is the proposed expansion of the Port Perry Memorial Hospital which is undoubt- edly going to require major funding for which you may be asked to contribute through taxation. During times of restraint I believe it is important to have representation that has demonstrated their concern for the community and it would be my endeavour to continue to serve you in that manner. I respectively ask for your support on November 8th.

Speakers for the event included writer, Margaret Laurence, Nobel Peace prize winner, Linus Pauling, past Moderator of the United Church of Canada, Lois Wilson, former Deputy Director of the C.I.A. Herbert Scoville and other- notable persons who are spokesmen for world peace. Canadian Jack Stark who heads the Ottawa-based Operation Dismantle was host and coordinator. The LOOKED AT conference took the form of panel discussions and work- shops. In one of the panels, the participants were represent- atives of the superpowers, Eugeny (P. Goussarov from the U Embassy to Canada and Archelaus R. Turrentine from the U.S. Government Arms Control and Disarmament Agency. Both men spoke out strongly in support of the peace movement.

To the question of the Cruise missile testing in Alberta which is an issue of grave concern to Canadians at this time, the American apgared to be uninformed. This caused an audible stir in the assembly. As Mr. Stark pointed out, it is not the first time that the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. During a later panel discussion Dr. David Cort- wright who represents the Committee for the Sane Use of Nuclear Power described the dangers of producing and stockpiling Cruise missiles which are no bigger than a dining room table and could be stored in anyone's garage. He brought to the conference the encouraging news that there has been an emergence of more than a thousand peace organiza- tions throughout America in the past eighteen months. He said, "We don't just hope for peace, we work for peace'. What we must do is challenge the funding of nuclear weapons, organize politically and see that those elected to office carry out the wishes of the people. Dr. Lois Wilson reminded the assembly that the world's problems have no national boundaries. She emphasized that disarma- ment was a moral issue as well as a political one. While many in the world are struggling to obtain a clean water supply and adequate food, six hundred billion dollars are being spent on arms yearly.
