PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, October 16, 1990 -- 9 Editorial Comment (from page 6) say about the GST. Still, the government pushes on, stacking the Senate with old buddies in a shameful act to get the Bill through, come hell or high water, by January 1. : Confidence? What confidence. How can a country contin- ue to function under these circumstances? Yes, we have our "made in Canada" recession. And even if Wilson has trouble saying the dreaded R-word, he's going to be hearing it over and over again in the months ahead. Free trade, the GST, high interest rates; of course these contribute to an economic slow-down. But the recession that we are now experiencing has its roots in six years of miserable leadership, six years of bun- gling arrogance, and six years of rule by men and women in Dizi who refuse to listen to the people who put them in of- ce. Back in the early 80's things got bad in this country. Inter- est rates went to 18 per cent, factories closed down, hard- working Canadians walked away from their homes, unable to meet the mortgage payments. Are we facing the same thing now? It looks that way heading into what is going to be a long, cold winter for hun- dreds of thousands of Canadians. ad " ELAR v i = - 7 1 FIBERGLAS rs! 27 B CANADA --" "FIBERGLAS INSULATION Letters io ihe editor - 69... 69 6" thick 99.9 sq. ft 54.9 sq. ft. : se a . . bdle. a bundle bdle. bundle Fi nd sol ution to landfi Il Friction batts are 15" wide and 48" long.
