"It's a sorry mess indeed," said Waterloo North MPP Herb Epp at the annual meeting meeting last week of the Durham East Liberal Riding Association. Association. Mr. Epp told his audience attending the meeting at Bowmanville's Bowmanville's King Garden Restaurant Restaurant that the government should have known about the problems facing Crown, Seaway Seaway and Greymac trust companies companies months or years ago. He claimed that staff of Consumer and Commercial Relations Minister Bob Elgie have even called Liberal party researchers to find out information information on the companies. "The government hasn't been monitoring trust companies companies the way it should," said Mr. Epp. And he called for a public inquiry into the matter. matter. He suggested future changes in legislation may, for example, put a limit on loans to insiders of any trust company. Mr. Epp told Durham East Liberals that the blame for today's difficulties should not be directed entirety at Bob Elgie, the cabinet minister in, charge of Consumer and Commercial Commercial Relations. Predecessors Predecessors in this job should also bear some of the responsibility responsibility and ultimately the blame should rest on Premier Bill Davis. Mr. Epp explained that cabinet ministers have been shuffled so frequently that they are unable to become familiar with their portfolios before being transferred elsewhere. elsewhere. "The person who is mostly responsible for this is Mr. Davis, said the speaker. Matters relating to the sale of the nearly 11,000 Cadillac Fairview apartment units and the subsequent govémment takeover of three trust companies companies was one of the main events of 1982. But, there were other important developments in the year. The guest speaker described Ontario Hydro as an "out of control corporation." He pointed out statistics which show that half of the province's province's $28 billion debt can, be attributed to Hydro. The average base salary of a. Hydro employee is $31,000 and over 1,500 Hydro employees Early Childhood News Circles: A challenge was the theme of the workshop in Oshawa attended by members of the Ontario North Shore Branch, A.E.C.E.O., on January January 15. Wendy Gysbers, B.A.E.C.E., a teacher at the Ryerson Day Care Center in Toronto, talked about the goals of circle time and how teachers can make it an enjoyable enjoyable and successful learning experience for all the children in her group. Circle time is a time for sharing ideas, to improve listening skills and attention span. It also allows the child to be creative in thought and movement and while enjoying himself, he gains greater confidence confidence in self-expression. Mrs. Gysbers gave her audience audience lots of opportunity to participate and thereby created some typical (and not so typical) situations that teachers are sometimes faced with in their centers resulting in a lively exchange of ideas. The speaker for the February February meeting will be James Sunderland, a consultant at Adventure Place. His topic will be Early Identification of Emotional and Behavioural Problems. The meeting will be held at the Happy Tots Day Care, Oshawa, on Wednesday, February 16 at 7:30 p.m. Admission Admission is free for members, but there is a charge of $1.00 for non-members.

Mr. Epp labelled the provincial provincial budget as a major disappointment disappointment although he pointed out that the sales tax proposal went to an all-party committee committee for public scrutiny in a precedent-setting move. He noted that the Liberal party proposed 19 amendments amendments to the budget but added that the government failed to accept their recommendations. recommendations. Liberals would have implemented across-the- board restraint programs instead instead of the six ana five proposal proposal set by Ontario for the public service. Mr. Epp attacked the purchase purchase of Suncor as another major blunder of the Ontario government. It has already cost Ontario taxpayers $50 million in losses during the past nine months, he added. Mr. Epp urged his audience to take an interest in issues at the provincial level. There's a tendency to pay more attention attention to what's happening at Ottawa than at Queen's Park, Mr. Epp said. But he noted that 65 per cent of tax revenues revenues go to the local and rovincial governments, lerefore, the provincial government should command the interest of the public. "The people of Ontario are showing themselves to be strong and resilient in spite of the long, cold winter/' Mr. Epp said. There are challenges ahead, but these challenges are not insurmountable obstacles, he said. "By taking up the challenge, we will be better people, better Liberals and better Ontarians," Mr. Epp concluded. concluded. pr< Thi Now for groups of 3 or more BLUE CHIP BASIC combines • Denial & Drug Benefits • Preferred Hospital Accommodation • Major Medical Benefits • Direct claims payment • Easy administration with one ID certificate and one monthly billing Write for a brochure or call direct Michael Good Oshawa, Ontario L1G4W5 @(416)433-5541 5099-3 ONTARIO - ."Vi (K'C: Plan to attend our Labour Management Dinner Meeting FEBRUARY 16,1983, 6:00 p.m., HOLIDAY INN, OSHAWA Mr. F.
