1 * Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Wednesday, September 11,1991 3 Report from by Cord Mills, M.P.P., Durham East Opinion and Comments Trucker s Friend Defends Rigs Parked on Street Dear Editor: In response to the "Disturbed "Disturbed Citizen's" letter in the August 28 issue of the Independent, Independent, this letter is very confusing as to which truck driver parks at a local gas station. station. After reading the letter a second time, I came to the conclusion it must be the truck driver from Rutherford Drive. Last week, as I informed you in my column, I spent four days with my government government colleagues at Honey Harbour. The place was swarming with news media. I'm sure you must have had an opportunity to sec this on television at one time or another another during the week. The resort we stayed at was very nice. Unfortunately, the days started at 8:30 a.m. and the meetings continued until almost almost midnight. As a result, there wasn't time to enjoy the facilities. Personally, I wasn't disappointed because, after all, we had gathered to set new priorities to ensure the recovery from the worst rc- ■ cession since the 1930's. The top item on our agenda, agenda, and one I'm sure you are all interested in, was the auto insurance issue. In our discussions, discussions, I supported a position position of backing down on public public auto insurance. I did this for one very valid reason. In an economy racked by recession recession and the effects of free trade, I could not be part of a policy that would affect the jobs of more than 13,500 workers, most of them women, women, and many living and working in Durham East. I said, and still stand by my statement, that a government working to create jobs would look pretty silly causing the loss of 13,500 jobs at the same time. Some people will criticize us for spending time and money to reach a decision that the insurance industry has been suggesting all along. I don't agree with that position. position. It was important for us to do our own research and talk to all those affected. The time and money invested has given us the information and insight we need to develop a system which will be fair, affordable, affordable, and accessible. It's a fact that the government government can control the product and the price of insurance, and that's what we intend to do. We will ensure a balance of fair price, adequate benefits, benefits, and reasonable profit through negotiation, cooperation cooperation and regulation. Some people, in particular government supporters, will complain that the promise in the Throne Speech to introduce introduce public auto insurance has been broken. When the Throne Speech was written, we were only aware of the deficit we inherited. We did not fully appreciate how severe severe the recession was going to be for the province. If we had introduced public auto insurance, it would havebeen a system unique to Canada, however, the start-up costs were about $1.4 billion. In a healthy economy, this might have been acceptable, in today's today's economy, it wasn't creditable. We will introduce legislation this fall changing the Liberals' no-fault plan so that more innocent accident victims can sue for pain and suffering. We will also change regulations so that benefits will be increased and improved. I believe it is a balanced balanced approach that will keep the cost of premiums reasonable. reasonable. In my political experience, at the municipal level, and now as your member in the Onlario Legislature, I was always always aware that pleasing everyone everyone is impossible. I trust that I have helped all sides to better understand a very difficult difficult decision which I was called upon to make on behalf behalf of everyone in Durham East. Until next week, keep on being kind to each other. It works. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Business is Business in Village Debbie Nowlan, Commercial Commercial space is rented by the square foot cither with or without utilities. Business is Business. If Mr. Slater's group Kin- row Investments is a charitable charitable organization, they do not have to pay Business Tax or compete with existing business business in the town by charging full commercial rates. If Kin- row Investments is not a charitable organization are they offering to purchase residential residential land at a low cost, apply apply for rezoning and thus increase increase the value of the land overnight? Debbie, who arc you trying trying to "KID"? LETTER TO THE EDITOR Cancer Society Badly in Need of New Volunteers Dear Mr. James: The Bowmanville and District Unit 108 of the Canadian Canadian Cancer Society will be ending its 1991 campaign on Sept. 30, 1991. I would like to take this opportunity to thank your newspaper for the coverage you have given bur Unit during this past year that started in Oct. 1990.1 would , also like to thank all the many people who worked in the many capacities to make our fund-raising drive the success it was, especially the door-to-door canvassers. We did not meet our '91 objec-' live, not because people were not generous but because we did not have enough volunteers volunteers to cover the area the way it should be covered. If the citizens of the Town of Newcastle wish the services services to our many patients (eg. education, patient services, and transportation) to continue continue in the.caring way it has in the past, we need many more "I made it out of soap."

Debbie, might I suggest you spend more time towards a more efficient use of our school tax dollars and let council hold public meetings. Lorraine Lover A tractor cab parked on a street is no more of an obstruction obstruction than some beat-up vehicles or hitch-trailers, etc. parked in driveways in the area. In fact, most truck drivers drivers take better care of their rigs than some do with their cars. If this particular resident is having trouble backing out of his/her driveway, the proper, way is to back into a driveway driveway and drive out thus eliminating eliminating the backing out onto the çtrcet problem. Reference is made to "Rutherford Drive looking junky, because now we have another gentleman parking his truck right in front of our new park on Edward Street". I don't quite understand how the truck on Edward Street can make Rutherford Drive look junky when in fact neither neither Edward Street nor the park can be seen from Rutherford Rutherford Drive. There arc more than two rigs in Newcastle Village and I don't feel these truck drivers drivers bring their cabs home to be spiteful. I thought when we moved from the city to the country there would be no problems but it appears the busy bodies move with you. I have spoken to a number of residents about the truck on Edward Street and there doesn't appear to be a problem. problem. There is more concern with the 20 or so cars parked along Edward Street and Snowden Court during ball games. Furthermore, if the park is such.a concern, speed bumps should be put on Edward Edward Street to control speeding speeding which presently exists. This "Disturbed Citizen" may not have an obstruction or piece of junk parked in his/ her driveway at the present time but they don't know what the future holds for them. This individual should slop and think things out before before causing problems for his neighbour and other residents of Newcastle Village. Ÿours truly, Trucker's Friend 10th Year for Sea Cadets The President, Executive and Members of the Bowmanville Bowmanville and District Branch, Navy League of Canada arc planning the 10th Anniversary Anniversary celebration of the formation formation of the Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps "279 Bowmanville", Bowmanville", to be held Saturday Saturday September 28,1991.

Frank, after being assured that the Fuelers had pulled out, wrote his column on that basis, and the article had already gone to print when this new information was received. Anyway Bill's lead the series 3-2 and a win would send them into, the Town League Championship finals against Kramp's Furniture, starting Thursday night. But should Stephen's win, despite a rather large shortage of players, then they would meet Bill's Thursday. t t t t t THE BIG WINNER! -- Mr. Joe Schwarz, well known, local cattle drover, really hit the jackpot Tuesday night when he was the winner of the Kin Investment Draw,.. yes, it was worth $1,000.00 in .cold cash. t t + t t TIGHT SERIES -- The finals of the Darlington Senior Soccer League could once more stretch into the cold weather, if Saturday's game is any indication. indication. Both Zion and Solina gave it everything they had, but neither team was able to score. Should be a tremendous series. Don't miss any of their upcoming games! t t t t t TEENS -- A Bowmanville group of musicians, the Syndicate, including Gord Poste, Dave Bridges, Ron Hooper, John Hooper and Dune Syer, have launched a project that should be of considerable * interest to teenagers of the area. They have tied in with the Newcastle Lions Club as sponsors and plan to run teen-dances in Newcastle Community Hall every Friday evening throughout the fall and winter. Once a month, a name band will be brought in and all dances will be collar and tie affairs. We wish them well with this ambitious scheme. + t + t t NEW GOLFERS - On Sunday, Bowmanville Golf & Curling Club had some unexpected and unwelcome unwelcome visitors. Two ponies and a horse got loose from their nearby pasture and decided to see what this golf game was all about. They clomped across the second green, leaving their hoofprlnts on the soft, expensive grass and then decided the second tee needed some fertilizer. Eventually, they were chased away, after doing a fair amount of damage. + t + t t QUIET -- The Labor Day weekend in this area was a comparatively quiet, restful affair, with practically no feature events of any kind, other than Port Perry Fair on Monday. One of these days, somebody should come up with n carnival or something to provide entertainment for those who don't have cottages or plan trips over the Labor Day weekend. Who knows, such a show might even make a dollar for some organization. t + t t t NEW ROAD -- At long last, the paving is almost completed on the county road from Bowmanville to Cartwright mut it is a beautiful job, especially considering the bumps and dips that have been jarring motorists for several years on the old road. One of the problems will be to keep it from becoming becoming a drag strip for over-zealous speedsters. It should also be mentioned Hint there is only otic stop on the road at the Fifth Concession. Congratulations Congratulations to the United Counties Rond Commission Commission for finishing the job. All that remains is for the officials to decide just where the road will go at the iiowmanvillo end of the strip. Welfare Officer Bldg.
