t 2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, August 12,1987 Meet NDP's Marg Wilbur Marg Wilbur "Durham East would lose its economic base in a Free Trade deal with the United States," says Marg Wilbur, the riding's New Democratic Party candidate. "If the auto pact is on the table and if import controls are on the table there would be a major negative impact impact in Durham East," she says. Wilbur notes that General Motors in Oshawa as well as part suppliers, workers, farmers, and small businesses businesses stand to lose in a trade deal. Voters, she says, are worried. "They're worried about their inhs worred about their future - their financial financial survival." Wilbur, 48, is fighting her third provincial provincial election. She has worked for Durham East residents as a member of such community groups as the Scugog Library Board and Durham Federation of Agriculture during her 18 years in the riding. The NDP's Bob Rae and Ed Broad- bent are the only party leaders strongly opposing Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's Free Trade deal, Wilbur points out. Progressive Conservative Conservative leader Larry Grossman supports supports a deal, while Premier David Peterson said in April he's prepared to take a "modest leap of faith" on Free Trade talks, she adds. "I would take a firm stand on all issues - listening to people and taking their concerns to the top," Wilbur says. A local newspaper recently described described her as "one of the nicest people you will ever run into. Words like dedicated, committed and caring come to mind . .." In 1987, it is important to have more New Democrats in Queen's Park representing representing ordinary working people by fighting on such issues as Free Trade, the environment and auto insurance, insurance, Wilbur says. An Open Letter to Diane Hamre In regards to the news item of the name change of a road from Hale to Staple- ton Road, I would like to clarify this to the public in which Diane Hamre quoted that the Hale landfill had only been on the road for 25 years. Well, Diane, I would like to tell you this road name change had nothing to do with the landfill. The Hales were on this road for 5 generations and still are, so if that is not pioneers of the community I would like to know what you call it? My husband was born on the home farm and raised there as were his sisters and brother, also grandchildren have been raised there. Diane, on what property do you think the landfill is? It is on the Hale pioneer homestead. Also in the.news item, it was a4 - 2 vote. Well Diane, it was a 3 - 2 vote and the deciding deciding vote was made by Councillor Frank Staple- ton, a cousin of the Staple- ton families. I ask you, is this fair play? Also there is a letter in council to confirm confirm that 25 years ago the road was named Hale Road. 1 see this was also ovek looked. ' Another news item also appeared in the paper about 3 weeks ago where you were opposing the landfill. landfill. I would like to know how you can oppose the landfill when you have never visited it or even Van Belle Floral Shoppes ...much more than a flower store! 4 STORES • Highway No. 2 King St.W., Oshawa Slmcoe St. N., Oshawa 100 DundasSt.W.

Correction In the Shoppers Drug Mart flyer, August 10th to 15th In today's paper, Delsey Bathroom Tissue 8-roll pkg. $2.69, should have read: 1-PLY, not 2-ply as indicated. Sorry for any Inconvenience this error may have caused. » SHOPPERS 2k DRUG MART talked to the Hale family about it. You have on several several occasions been sent invitations invitations to attend meetings and parties and have declined declined on all invites for one reason or another. I would think you should have attended attended some meetings and got your information first hand instead of second, hand. Then you could get up in council and say yes or no instead of'No' all the time. All other councillors have attended meetings and had tours of the landfill which you declined on. So I can understand if they say 'No' because they know what they are talking about when it comes to landfill. I have every reason to believe believe you owe the Hale family family a public apology for discriminating discriminating their name. Mrs. Betty Hale R.R. 1, Newtonville, Ont.
