Vol. 122 No. 20 Tuesday, April 12, 52 Pages ) j | Get the facts before you start to renovate All dressed up and not sure what the heck to do! That's the dilemna of many do-it-yourselfers who aren't sure whether they need a building permit or not, Do you, for example, need a permit for building a deck less than 100 sg. ft? What if it has a roof? And how about re-facing your house--is a permit necessary? If you're planning a spring renovation or building project, your best bet is to talk to the Township of Scugog building inspectors first. Dale Broom and Ken Middleton (who are foremost in builder Paul Griffen's thoughts) are paid to answer your questions and make sure your project is completed properly, and up to municipal standards. So don't be like this bemused bullder--think about Dale and Ken before you start. See story for a few renovation permit tips. sada oo Jb Liu Farmer files Time may be running out for Svante Lind, the Cadmus egg farmer who has waged a decade long fight against extradition to his native Sweden. Federal Justice Minister Ray Hnatyshen signed the extradition order March 31, but Lind's Toron- to lawyer David Price has filed for habeus corpus as a final attempt to stop the extradition. Mr. Lind, 42, a native of Sweden but now a citizen of Can- ada, has been held in custody in Toronto's Don Jail since last De- cember. Lawyer David Price told the Star on Monday that arguments on the writ of habeus corpus will be heard in Supreme Court this Friday and he will be asking the Court to over-turn the extradition order signed late last month by the Justice Minister. Mr. Price said he will argue that his clients rights have been violated because the Minister took more than 60 days to rule on the extradition order, and because he has not had a chance to see all the documents that led to the Ministe- rial order March 31. Swedish authorities want Mr. writ to block extradition Lind extradited to face charges of alleged brankruptcy fraud, which took place before Mr. Lind came to Canada in the mid 70's and ap- plied for citizenship. Mr. Price said the amount of money involved in the alleged fraud may be as little as $15,000. Swedish authorities are saying it is $200,000. "To this day, I have not seen any evidence of a loss greater than $15,000. That's the frustrating thing for me," Mr. Price said in an interview Monday. Mr. Lind has said in previous interviews that he feels Swedish authorities want him back in that country because he was an out- spoken critic of Swedish govern- ment policies in the early 1970's. In his struggle to avoid extra- dition to Sweden, Mr. Lind has received numerous letters of sup- port, including one from the On- tario Egg Marketing Board and the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. He owns two egg farms ncar Cadmus, both of which have had to be placed under a lease arrange- ig while he remains in the Don Jail.
