While the proposed changes would have the total number of area ridings unchanged at six, Mr. Lawrence, in his address to the commission, said the proposals produce "some very significant discrepancies discrepancies which do require rectification." One of the HP's chief objections is to the new Durham riding, which surrounds surrounds the proposed Oshawa riding. "My submission to you is that the people to the east of Oshawa have very little in the way of common interests or objectives with _ the oeonle west of Oshawa, he said. "There is no common history or tradition, no common common development pattern or trend, past or projected, and consequently no general community community of interest between the Bowmanville-Newcastle area and the Whitby area." "Oshawa is geographically, demographically, municipally, municipally, geologically and even geologically a boundary between between the communities along the north shore of Lake Ontario," he added, alternative Instead, he urged, the former Township of Reach should be added to the towns of Ajax and, Whitby, and a western part of Oshawa to comprise an electoral district . of about 70,500 people in an area where development has occurred on a large scale since 1971. The commission's proposal would divide the area into parts of four different ridings. The commission's plans to split the towns of Port Hope and Cobourg to the east also came under Mr. Lawrence's fire. The two towns have been part of the Northumberland- Durham riding since the early 1960's. Cobourg and Port Hope have strong economic and population ties, argued Mr. Lawrence, which was recognized recognized when recent provincial riding changes combined the two for the first time. "The surprise and chagrin of the people of the area was extreme when, in the midst of the recent provincial election campaign this commision published its new proposal to once more separate, elector- ally speaking, Port Hope and Cobourg," said the Northumberland-Durham Northumberland-Durham MP. SPLIT According to Mr. Lawrence, splitting the two towns would be a "step backwards." "Believe me, the people of Port Hope are sincerely convinced that they have nothing in common with the people of Whitby and vice versa; no community of interest, no common problems problems and no municipal or proviciai or regional connection" connection" said Mr. Lawrence. The Northumberland- Durham MP argues that, with the slight changes heprqposes for the western Oshawa area, the existing ridings of Northumberland-Durham Northumberland-Durham , Prince Edward - Hastings and Peterborough Peterborough could and should remain unrhanueH Labor asked to support support airport rebirth Mayor Jim Potticary said today that various labor and municipal organizations throughout throughout central Ontario will be asked to support a move to pressure the federal and provincial governments into resurrecting the Pickering airport project. The mayor met Tuesday with representatives of local laboroers, ironworkers, bricklayers, bricklayers, and electricians unions unions to get their feelings on the cancellation of the project. He said these groups will seek the support of related Toronto-area groups, but added added that in a broader sense, support will be sought from all segments of society He said the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce has already sent letters to other Chambers in central Ontario asking that they get behind the push to revive the airport. The mayor said he doesn't want Durham to lose out on the estimated 40,000 jobs that would come with airport- related commercial and industrial industrial development. "We also need more housing housing in the region," he said, "but we can't afford new housing without the airport or an equivalent amount of industry." Mayor Potticary said the leaders of the Ontario's three major political parties will also be petitioned to call for reinstitution of the airport project. Regional Planning Against Cedarwood The Planning and Development Development committee of the Region of Durham has voted unanimously unanimously to ask the regional council to oppose the North Pickering housing development development for some 75,000 people by the year 1991. The development development proposed by the province province is to be known as Cedarwood. It is expected that the Regional council will support this move. Oshawa has already come out in opposition to the plan since the Pickering airport was shelved by the Federal government. government. It was pointed out in the committee meeting that since the main economic base for the development has been lost (the Pickering Airport) the development should be opposed opposed Coun. Jim Gartshore of Whitby stated that in his opinion the Cedarwood scheme scheme was a "greater horror" than was the proposed airport. airport.
