Note: Our -Thanks to Bob Brown of Bowmanville for bringing in the following article article from the Calgary Alberta Alberta Herald, December 22nd. Unfortunately, the writer is just as confused as the rest of us over our true-identity. But the story is interesting and entertaining. Torch nears Toronto By Tom Keyser BOWMANVILLE, Ontario- Mayor John Winters leaned across a table in his office and asked for something something strange. "fd like one of your miner's miner's lamps," he began, "because I'm going to Monte Carlo and I'd like to give it to the prince." The Olympic torch briefer, briefer, who was filling in Winters Winters and his council on relay protocol, deflected the impossible impossible request nicely by saying, "that's not my jurisdiction." jurisdiction." Of course, Winters didn't get his lamp. A mere 80 kilometres east of Toronto, the largest way station the torch will encounter encounter on its cross-country marathon marathon to Calgary, the Olympic Olympic flame took time Monday to snuggle up to Bowmanville, Bowmanville, a town of 13,000 beside Lake Ontario. But Winters, you should understand, is not mayor of Bowmanville. He and his six ■ fellow councillors represent the region of Newcastle, an area of about 400 square kilometres kilometres - "larger tnan Toronto," Toronto," boasted the mayor - which administers civic affairs affairs in Bowmanville and other small centres within its borders. The confusion results from Ontario's system of regional regional government, implemented implemented a decade ago. Because Because of the re-jigging, Bowmanville no longer has a town government. "We're losing our identity," identity," snapped one elderly Bowmanville woman as she waited for the torch. The mayor was asked if Bowmanville was a bedroom bedroom community for Toronto, Toronto, and scowled. "Those are dirty words around here," he muttered. ' Politics" a'nd " semantics aside, Bowmanville's welcome welcome for the torch was typical. typical. "Help me out," begged OCO'88's Jim Hunter of a crowd of about 750 which gathered at the corner of King and Temperance streets for a flame salute. "Is it Newcastle or Bowmanville?" Bowmanville?" The townsfolk's united response response of "Bowmanville" straightened the record. The Bowmanville Zoo was closed Monday, but a few elephants, llamas ducks, goats and a solitary emu looked up to watch the torch enter town. At the hockey rink, there was a figure skating skating show "for the entire family," family," fifty-cent hot dogs and free hot chocolate. Most businessess dis,- played crayon flame posters, scrawled by pre-teens. A jewelry store called Cathy's Gold posted a sign which read: ' Gone to see torch. Be back at 4:30." Some 12 kilometres west, things were slicker in the company town of Oshawa, home of General Motors. The flame took an obligator obligator pass by the GM plant before coming to rest beside ' a bandshell featuring antique antique rocker Ronnie Hawkins Hawkins and his fur-coated band. The automotive Olympic sponsor laid on refreshments and 5,000 balloons, each bedecked bedecked with the GM logo. The largescale do, which drew about 3,000 Oshawans to a bandshell near city hall, was paid for by GM and city council.
