The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, March 2, 1977 15 Best Cub Six Chosen at Hillcrest Heights Banquet Only five of the Best Six Cubs were present-a t the Hillcrest Heights Father and Son banquet on Saturday night, but it's obvious that these Cubs are delighted to have been selected for the honor. They are, from Ieft to right, Brian Johnston, Robert Spiers, Eckhard Vandenberg, David Black and David Kinghorn. Dan Chappell was absent, On February 14, 1977, Step- hen Lewis, leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party, announced changes in the portfolio assignments of the NDP caucus. My portfolio is now the Energy critic for the NDP. I am looking forward with a great deal of interest in working in this area because it is apparent that energy along with environ- ment issues will determine what kind of life-style we will have in the future. Abuse of those two has resulted in their workplace or in their living 'area. I think the recent energy crisis in the United States is indicative of what could hap- pen here given extreme cold temperatures and the result- ant overloading' of energy systems. Massive unemploy- ment, unheated homes, and food line-ups do not make for an attractive or useful way of lie. The energy portfolio in- cludes hydro, energy re- sources, the development of alternate sources, such as solar energy, and the develop- ment of systems which will minimize harm to the environ- ment, as well as tighter control of existing systems by eliminating wasteful practices that cause pollution and over- loading of the environment. I think in the Region of Durham we have ample proof of how energy affects our lives. The proposed Darling- ton Generating Station, the development of a nuclear waste disposal unit at Port Granby, the development of a refinery by Eldorado Nuclear at Port Granby, transmission corridors through agricultural land, are some of the main MOTHER MOD' ANNOUNCES A SPECIAL DISCOUNT POLICY FOR MARCH ON ALL FABRICS Linings and Drapery Excluded Discounts to 50% and More off our Tagged Prices COME IN AND SAVE!

Presently high hydro rates, the cost of insulating materials and the lack of insulation in homes, bulk metering in apartments instead of individual meters, are also ways in which we are affected. In fact, all of this sounds overwhelming. However, I feel that with proper public input into the decisions which affect the building or main- tainance of such things in our area and elsewhere, then we can have control over expo- sure to harmful materials, control over how mauch we pay for these developments, both short-term and long-term in money and health. It is still possible to do all this and maintain a good quality of life which includes full employment. I would also like to remind you that if you want any information feel free to call either Queen's Park or the Bowmanville office.
