This means "The houses in Burnaby that regardless of the size adjacent to the oil refinery of the refinery stacks most have decreased in value. I of the pollution emitted know personally of several would hang over the area persons who have had their for a considerable length of houses on the market for two years and can't sell. Finally, the oil company bought them at deflated prices." The oil companies use this tactic to provide a buffer zone for future expansion. It is also a good way to remove opposition. Nobody wants to live near a refinery. Apart from the sheer ugliness of the thing, the smell is appalling. Property values in the Colborne area would certainly decrease. Throughout the conversation with Mr. Moysiuk the group was impressed with the callous attitude of the oil companies. They make many promises of pollution control but it seems little action is ever taken. Surely the Colborne area can attract cleaner industry. In an area so dependent on summer tourist trade, protection of our environment is needed. People come to the country to get away from the smell and pollution of the city. Once an oil refinery moves in tourism disappears. The Colborne area is a beautifful, clean, place. We owe it to our retired residents, our children and ourselves to keep it that way. We need your support to stop the refinery. Write the Concerned Citizens Organization, Box No. 313, Colborne, for information on how you can help save the beauty of our community.

Using electricity wisely isn't just a matter of avoiding waste. i Mrs. Maude Rutherford Dale celebrated her 91st birthday on August 20, 1974, at the Bowmanville home of her brother, Claude Ives. Formerly from Colborne, Mrs. Dale resides at the Sunset Lodge Nursing Home at Bowmanville. Being watchful to avoid the frittering away of kilowatthours is everyone's concern, in the interest of economy and conservation of valuable energy resources. But for some people, living in older homes with outdated wiring, restricted use of appliances is not always a matter of choice. They do not have sufficient circuits to serve normal needs without resorting to 'octopus' outlets and extension cords. The result: overloading and blowing of fuses. These conditions also tend to diminish the performance of appliances and shortens their life. Inadequate wiring is not only inconvenient, it can be a safety hazard. If you have any doubts about the capacity of your home's wiring have it checked by a qualified Electrical Contractor. Then,use , electricity wisely. . . and safely.
