Hie is ceaceracd aboeut unemployment, pollution and flic destruction of flic family farm. île ,lbas aised Iliese issues and 1 know thaf lie will figlit f0 Srue that 'people get tflicots and thec action needcd. I know that by voting for the other parties I would be voting te kc'ep fhings just flic way tliey arc new. 1. don't like 8 te 105' uneaiploymeat cvery winfer.

I hope you'Il sunpport Dnoug too. I know he'11 do Youliave asked wliy I amn vot ing for Robin- Russell and flie Liberal Party lanflils election, and requesféd that I state tliis la 350 words or lcss. Firstly I would like f0 make one peint clear. I have no grievance or criticism f0 the service rend- cred me personally or toflic municipality by flic siffing mcm- ber, and 1 am not basing my de- cision on sucli flings as pollu- tion, unemploymeat etc., as I be- lieve a lot of this type of thing will be takea care of, la any case. My vote will bc cast for Robin Iluýssel because 1 believe this youtng man lias exceptionat qual- ifications and bis sclioollng and practical' training haxe prepared hlma for this posilton. Further- more, I like what I sec of Bob Nixon, flic Liberal leader. 1 was acquainfed with lis father wlicn lie also was a member of flic pro-' vincial legislafure, and I1liad for hlm a great respect. 1 feel that Bob lias lnlierifed a very sounci and practical approacli f0 polities and if is being manifested*,at ihi's time. Another reason I arn votinig for Robin Russell is beceause I arn grcaly disturbed by flic actions of flic present Conservative gov- crament, whei'eby thcy appear f0 be forcing municipalities, boft large and small, into situations whioli I feel are detrimentai te civic initiative and wliicli, I arn afraid, will have the effeet of des- troying civîc pride and înteresf in local -communifies.
