The party held an information meeting at the Latcham Centre Friday evening. Pictured above are Durham Riding Association interim vice-president Harry Tunbridge and interim president Randy Flint. Heated debate erupts over abortion issue From Page 1 tion of French in Quebec and English in the rest of Canada as the predominant language of work and society. People attending the meet- ing were encouraged to write questions on a piece of paper for the panel to answer. One person asked how the Reform Party would balance the books. "With a very, very scathing axe," Mr. Tunbridge answered. The axe would chop spending on Parliamentary institutions and party caucuses, thick layers of middle management in federal administration, fed- eral pet projects such as official bilingualism, multicultural- ism, and certain government advertising, foreign aid, to name just a few areas. Another person asked if the Reform Party would drop the federal Goods and Services Tax. "The application of the GST was wrong," Mr. Tunbridge said, but added it would cost bil- lions of dollars to remove the - tax. He said the Reform Party would use the GST revenues for their initial purpose -- to reduce the national deficit. The meeting became heated when one questioner asked about the party's position on abortion. Mr. Tunbridge said moral is- sues such as abortion and capi- tal punishment will never go Hall sees benefits From Page 1 believe. The plan to move a por- tion of the building to Oshawa was first ratified in 1989. Mayor Hall says he believes the City of Oshawa has con- ducted its business correctly throughout the entire process, and has things well under con- trol. Mayor Hall believes that the $150-million plan to revitalize Oshawa's downtown core will not only be a shot in the arm to Oshawa, but the Township of Scugog will benefit from it as well. He points to thg spin-offs such as constructi@® jobs, the creation of other jobs, and other related building activity that could possibly be awarded to lo- cal people. "I think it will be good for all of us," he says. "If there's any spin-offs, it should help us." away. "You are never going to con- vince one group one way or the other," he told the crowd. One woman yelled that abor- tion is the "ultimate in child abuse." Another woman asked "Would you rather see them abused black and blue when they're two years old?" If a vote came up, MPs would be obliged to vote in accordance to their constituents' beliefs, Mr. Tunbridge reminded the crowd. "How about if politicians and males stay the hell out of the woman's way," a man shouted. "I'm not going to stand here tonight and change any laws," Mr. Tunbridge said. Several people questioned the validity of the Young Of- fenders Act. The guest speaker called the act a farce and said it needs to be looked at in detail. After the meeting, the audi- ence was encouraged to pur- chase a $10 Reform Party mem- bership. A large number of people signed up. Another information meet- ing may be set up in Scugog Township in the near future. Although the organizers were pleased with the turnout, they felt more ple would have shown up if the Highway TA causeway had not been closed for two hours due toa au- tomobile accident. "We want to have another meeting so everyone can partic- ipate fully," Reform Party member Bob Prentice told the Star.
