collins barry cooper backward thinking by federal govt dear sir the proposal to spend some s283300 on brookville school is to me history repeating itself when the mohawk raceway came to nassagaweya the coun cil at that time couldnt wait to gel their hot little hands on the assessment and build the con troversial municipal building public opinion kept costs down somewhat and the result is a building that greatly resembles a european type public conven ience ah that is lacking is the ladies and gentlemen signs over the respective entrances it now appears the school board cant wait to get their hot little hands on the assessment from the 400000 motel to be built near the mohawk i recall that when brookville school was built some people including myself pointed out that the school obviously wasnt big enough we were told it was a matter of grants due to back ward federal thinking it is only possible to use population figur es of the past five years when building a school for the future and the fault is obvious immi grants are being encouraged to come to canada people are re producing cities are overflow ing into the rural areas and this inability to project into the future by federal authorities is having serious repercussions i wouldnt doubt the need for extra space what should be taught should be left to the pro fessional educators but it seems john courtney jessie ann
