looks like a tremendous con Job In which the An alltime low Dear Sirs Re Acton Free Press Feb Try a little harder and I am certain you can lower the quality of The Acton Free Press to an all time depth of poor taste and absurdity The drug stores closed early as did liter ally thousands of businesses across South era Ontario Only in Acton could this result in a separate article on the front page One person was inconvenienced WOW banner headlines But that is irre levant Still more irrelevant Is the fact that many people were Inconvenienced in many different ways Why not really plumb the

play I did not attend the Great Garbage Debate at Halton Region I have beard it all so many many times before I knew it would be just another selling Job for long and my time is valu able Williamson the Government canary for land filling the Dillon people who sold the people of Halton information at a handsome price Information our own could have provided as part of their normal duties pushed vigorously for Site Where were Lhe people who build per cent Resource Recovery Plants the plants named in my briefs to Region Do taxpayers spend time and money preparing briefs that are never read It was gratifying to find that Julian Reed had done his homework It was equally gratifying to find much of his presentation was gleaned from Information I had given to him The people of Site F and their sup porters should now prepare to repel the bulldozers They can expect little help from the new Minister of the Environment a former party hack and former mis man of the Niagara Escarpment Com mission need I say more Even If Mr the Minister had the best of Intentions he Is surrounded by the same old gang of advisors who condoned mercury lead and you name It other pollutants who condoned C B burning without prior or hearings not to mention long term landTilllng of garbage the same old gang who have ill advised the past ministers of the environment Here at Region there Is the chairman who as reeve of Georgetown made an Impassioned presentation to the B and earned a garbage dump within SO feet of the Credit River a site that gives railroad visitors to Georgetown a first and lasting impression and gave Georgetown the first regional dump Regional staff handling the solid waste problem have been hopelessly Inefficient They have not assembled the facts for councillors They have obviously not studied briefs submitted on this issue They have been over awed first by and now by Dillons To date the cost must be a quarter of a million dollars plus to the taxpayers land the legal proceedings haven t started yet Councillors with a few valiant exceptions could not care less where the garbage goes or processed They will vote to dump garbage anywhere but in their own area In my opinion the people of Site should like the people of Pickering solicit dignitaries and others to stop the dozers and when they do come They can put my name high on the list A good time to start such a list would be on March 3 March when people from Milton and district answer the bite appeal and take bundles of newspapers tc the Milton Mall Friday March 3 between p and and Saturday March from William A Johnson
