Wednesday, July 4, 2012 1937 - 2012 · Celebrating 75 Years Orono Weekly Times - 3 ODA Continued from front while attending the Juno Music Awards in Halifax, an amount she paid back after the public outcry. Under the rules the Prime Minister has between 11 to 180 days to call a by-election in Durham Riding. While numerous names have been floated as potential replacements for Oda, sources close to the Conservative Riding Association suggest the front runner is Erin O'Toole, son of John O'Toole, Durham MPP. While the younger O'Toole told the Orono Times on Tuesday that he was interested in the position, as a father of two very young children O'Toole said he could not confirm or deny his intentions to run for the Conservatives in a Durham By-election . Grant Hume, the Liberal candidate in the 2010 election, says he is currently in conversation with the Liberal Riding Association but would not confirm or deny if he is actively seeking the nomination. If Harper chooses to wait the full 180 days before calling the by-election it will not be held until after January 27, 2013. According to the Canadian Taxpayer Federation, Oda's annual Parliamentary pension will instantly start at $52,000 and add up to $701,464 by the time she reaches the age of 80. Councillors supported Taylor's recommendations at the General Purpose andadministration Committee meeting held on Monday June 25, with very little discussion.

I'm not sure that I see the future as so bleak. Looking back I was no less lackadaisical or unprepared for life than Sykes seems to think today's kids are. Life has a way of bringing out the best in all of us when the need arises and this genera- tion of graduates from high school, college or university will do as all generations have done before them; they will rise to the occasion, learn as they go and become the wise and worthy citizens they were always going to be. It is what humans do, adapt and survive. If you want to see Sykes' rules google `14 Rules for the Real World by Charles J. Sykes'. Loyal Printing Lt.
