6 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, January 14, 1986 Editorial Comments (From page 4) ly called for more research into the problem, rather than concrete "Had the report come down hard with tough recommendations, Mr. Davis said he feared that Reagan would have rejected it totally. it seems incredible that Ronald Reagan still would not admit that acid rain, most of which comes from south of the border is killing lakes, trees, wildlife and possibly humans in both countries. | - Sure, the cost of controlling the emissions is high. And sure, it will be tough politically for the American administrations to order clean- up measures by the polluters. . - But how much longer can we afford to wait? How much longer can we be held hostage over this problem because the President refuses to address the issue? Acid rain has been studied to death. There is technology available now to control the emissions. It's expensive, but it works. The American refusal to get tough on the acid rain problem shold be an ample warning sign to Canada that we should tread very delicately when it comes to the free trade negotiations between the two countries.
