"We did our best against a national trend hich clearly swamped us," she said. Mulvale urged her supporters to remain comâ€" itted to the party by helping in the rebuilding rocess. _ Mulvale said she would work closely with Brown to ensure the riding is well represented in "This riding remains committed to onservative values. There‘s not one person in ur team that‘s moving one centimetre away from that."

Except for eightâ€"yearâ€"old Jaemin, they are now on "the strongest puffers" (inhalers) and take Tylenol to help them sleep through the night. However, Gliddon said she is allergic to some kinds of medication and the only one she can tolerate is expensive and not covered by medical insurâ€" ance. As a single mother who is ‘orking toward a career, she cannot Fflord it. _ Besides feeling ill, Gliddon said neither she nor anyone else sleeps in her bedroom. It faces Petro Canada and, even with the windows closed, odours seep in and permeate the room. As well, she cited the "blinding headaches" she has that at one time caused her to fall and hurt herself when she was unable to see where she was going. She is also bothered by the sensation that her skin is covered with an oily residue that clings to her. « "It‘s just horrible," she said. * At first, she said she didn‘t know â€" where the source of her health probâ€" lems lay. On asking her neighbors if they, too, noticed the "sickening stmell and taste," some said they were bothered to some extent, but they got over it. Or they simply didn‘t think about it. et. 27. 1993 { Despite a certain amount of apaâ€" thy, Gliddon persevered in her research, calling first on Environment Canada and then being directed to Matsumoto. Oakville resident Andrea Gisondi didn‘t even know he had a $250,000 winning lottery ticket until a convenience store clerk told him. * $ V'Kfirer'Saunday's 649 lottery draw, the 61â€"yearâ€"old carpenter thought he had two minor Encore winners for $10 and $2. _ But when he went to the Parkways Convenience store in Mississauga, Monday night, to cash the tickets, the store clerk told Gisondi he had the $250,000 winning Encore number. _ A day later Gisondi picked up his winnings from the Ontario Lottery Corporation office in Toronto. Gisondi, a widower, intends to share the money with his four children and three grandchildren. ~â€" It will also allow him to make a few special trips. He has a daughter in Boston who is expecting a baby on Dec. 17th. Thanks to his winnings, Gisondi plans to fly down a few days later to meet his new grandchild for Christmas. Gisondi also plans to visit his hometown in Italy which he has not visited since coming to Canada in 1958. "When I got information from Cathy, I cried with relief," she said. "I was at the end of my rope." â€" _ As for an early retirement, Gisondi has no immediate plans. With the remainder of his winnings he intends to pay off his mortgage and bank the rest. Both women attended an Oct. 26th presentation of the results of a regional/provincial health study in which 390 families from Burlington and Oakville were contacted in a telephone survey to determine if P;'tro Canada‘s emission controls were really effective. â€" Petro Canada‘s Bob Gillespie, who supervises the environmental protection department, said his company has been participating in an Odour Action Plan for the past three years with the intent of reducâ€" ing odours to the absolute miniâ€" mum. Although odours could never be completely eliminated, he said $9 million has been spent to replace the flare system to better burn mateâ€" rials to decrease odours. Ongoing odourâ€"reduction projects include a $2 million collection system to draw off fumes when trucks are being filled. All this has shown "tangible results" in reducing odour from the refinery. But it depends on Where you live. * "Some residents around Queen Blizabeth Park School have said this is the best summer we‘ve had iD recent years (relating to odour) abd yet some closer to the refinery have said this is the worst summer," said Gillespie. "We‘ve still got a ways to go, but we‘re learning and we‘re also sharing those things through the Environmental Advisory Committee (a group repâ€" resented by the public, politicans and Petro Canada personnel)." + However, Gliddon suggested that further investigations should be thade by an unbiased source to estiâ€" mate air and ground levels of conâ€" tamination from thegefinery‘s emisâ€" arpenter has that $250,000 smile now ulvale says voteâ€"splitting killed Tories (Continued from page 1) s10ns In the meantine, she is waiting for someone to move out of a Halton Housing unit in northâ€"west Burlington so she can move in.

"I knew it depended on the Reform vote. If it was a twoâ€"way race we‘d be victorious. It was a national phenomenon we couldn‘t overcome." Despite the resounding defeat of the Conservatives across the country, Mulvale said she remains optimistic the Liberal government will "implement (some of the policies) we‘ve Ottawa "We have a role to help (Brown) in what is clearly a majority government.

However, she did say "I will not seek a third term as mayor (of Oakville)." When asked how she was holding up emoâ€" tionally, she responded "I‘m fine. I‘ve been in every election, win or lose." Riding association agreed with Mulvale defeat. "If you add up the Reform vote and the PC vote it equals what (Otto) Jelinek (former Oakvilleâ€"Milton MP) got in the last election. The right wing was split." He felt it was a sad night for the country. "When you don‘t win it‘s sad. When you have the kind of debt (Canadians) have, and a governâ€" ment who is going to spend more, it‘s sad." In the aftermath of the defeat, campaign coâ€" chair Doug Brady said no one could have possiâ€" bly predicted the extent of voter dissatisfaction before the election. "We were surprised at the magnitude of the whole thing. We didn‘t expect that. It really determined the outcome in this riding. there‘s nothing we could have done or Ann could have done to prevent that. "We‘re in shock. We‘re almost traumatized by the thing. The people have spoken," he said. Despite the total collapse of the party at the national level, Brady said there‘s "no doubt at all we can rebuild. "I frankly think a lot of the Liberal vote was by default. It was against the Tory government. We failed to get our message across as far as our policies go," said Brady. _ ‘"There‘s a sense of determination among our team that we still have a message to bring to the people."
