Mrs. Harnre this is just whaf the f wo men who were forced f0 resign, have been f rying to tell you, and other menibers of council. Give us a chance to tel! our part of the story. As late as Feb. 15, 1982, the rnen from thbe Work's Dept. werc still requesting a meeting to talk fe council. Mrs. Hamre, how could you make such a comment in the press about t he Minister of Municipal Affairs Claude Bennett, thaf he didn't give you or members of council a chance to speak. Maybc t bey'. thought you had your chance of speaking fhrougb your Mayor, jusf like you kept say- 'lng Du nharn and Ashton had their chance of spcaking through their lawyer. Maybe Mayor Rickard didn't feel you members of council needed to be informed of the investigation by Queen's Park, just as Council and Staff didn't inforrn the Mayor of the letter of allega- f ion for 4 to 6 days after they knew of the letter. The shoe pinches when ifs on your foot, and 1 get the feeling you don't like if, Dunham and Ashton still have not been given t he op- portunity f0 speak. Corne on now Mrs. Hamre, if you are going f0 make statements make sure you don't con- f radict yoursclf. The Minister of Municipal Affairs Claude Bennett, made if quife clear.

In se far as t he C.A.O.'s report in whicb the Councîl was FORCED f0 make a monetary staternent to atain this end spcaks for if self). There- is no doubt the Council's approach to this isue left a lot to be desired .and is indeed unfortunate that Council chose to acf in this manner. No one likes to admit thcy make a mistake, but a person dealing with unfounded allegations against f wo men sbould speak up and put these proven men back to work.

However, for some parts t he amplifier was turncd much f00 bigh. The bigb ighf of the fair for rne is always the beautiful horses and their drivers. A small teani of black hackney's driven by a lady were wonderful f0 watch. In another class were t wo lady drivers and four men ail s0 fine.
