The rejection of the Char- lottetown accord last October despite massive support by the big banks, business, labor and financial backing of govern- ment to tune of millions upon millions of dollars clearly showed that the people are fed up and don't trust the old line politicians. Ordinary Canadians saw it as a sell out to Quebec! A poll this spring showed that Canadians are the angriest peo- ple in the Western world with 39 per cent, compared with 20 per cent of West Germans, 25 per cent of French, and 33 per cent of Americans. They just don't trust their politicians any- more. Canada is facing a social revolution! The mosaic is changing from a once predomi- nant white society to a non- white. Only 15 per cent of the world's population is white. Our lavish multicultural aid policies attracts immigrants like bees to _ honey. The government has long kept from the people that its im- migration policies doesn't make Canadians richer, but it makes many immigrants and their lawyers richer. Economists who studies the issue both in the U.S.A. and Canada concluded 'neither immigration nor popu- lation growth has any impact on the income of the average na- Modern agriculture addicted to pesticides To the Editor: Many of us are concerned about the grave social and envi- ronmental problems we face at the global level, yet few of us know what to do about them. Fortunately there is a grow- ing awareness of solutions to these problems - a new under- standing of the interconnected- ness of all things. When the un- seen impacts of small, everyday decisions are viewed in a larger context where their global im- plications can be recognized, we begin to realize that both the root of our problems and the ability to solve them lie within each of us. After World War II farmers found relief from the constant menace of crop damage by using pesticides, insecticides, herbi- cides and fungicides. Unfortu- nately due to the remarkable ability of "pests" to rapidly adapt to toxic chemicals in their environment, more and more pesticides have been needed to produce the same degree of crop | AN LOAN BI) D STEYE Fe BER FEA Cl STE @ Fo 235 Queen St., Port Perry 985-3900 Bunk Beds, Brass Betls, Iron Beds, Car Beds, Wooden Beds, Murphy Bets, Electric Beds, Canopy Beds, Day Beds, Big Beds, Small Beds & Cribs!

About 250,000 per year putting a strain on social services, health care, and the job shortage. The Centre for Immigration Studies in Washington says America cannot deal with economic, edu- cational and environmental and health problems without first dealing with immigration. The same for Canada. Chretien who held a number of powerful cabinet posts in the Trudeau government that spent money like drunken sail- ors was followed by the high spending globe-trotting Mul- roney. Can the country survive another four years after facing more than 20 years of the Tru- deau-Mulroney era? A New York bond rating service down graded $7.5 billion U.S. forei currency debts issued by the Can. government and its agen- - cies. Making it more expensive to borrow. Two years after Mul- roney took office in 1986 the dol- lar hit an all time low of 69 cents. What alarms many Canadi- ans is that politicians that are defeated or retire after only six years (even is an M.P. is 30 years old) can collect a huge pension. Seniors have to wait until they are 65. Voters sent a clear message to Ottawa on the Charlottetown protection. Modern agriculture has become addicted to using larger and larger quantities of pesticides that poison the envi- ronment and the human food chain. The increase in overall pesti- cide use since 1945 (when petro- chemical based agriculture be- came popular) is 3,300 per cent. The increase in overall crop losses due to insects since 1945 is 20 per cent. The increase in the amount of pesticide applied per acre of corn since 1945 is 100,000 per cent! The increase in corn crop losses since 1945 is 400 per cent. The amount of to- tal herbicides used that are ap- plied to corn and soybeans is 61 per cent. (Diet for a New Ameri- ca -John Robbins) There are several farmers in the area who have opted to grow organic crops (no pesticides or chemicals used and have be- come very successful at it.) Their crops are fresh, nutritious and free of harmful chemicals. These farmers prefer to work Saray Tom Ton on ony soe 179 239 299 349 power 249 299 349 449 299 359 449 499 Queen 2pc. AVAILABLE accord. Don't be surprised if they do likewise in a number of areas across the country in re- Jecting the old parties in favor of Reform. Their tired wasteful policies will not work in the New Canada that most Canadi- ans yearn for. } While many business and in- dividuals face bankruptcy the six major banks posted profits of $2 billion 612 million in just nine months to July 31, 1993. The Royal Bank doubled its profits in the third quarter and has assets of $163.1 billion. It was the Royal Bank that predicted doom and gloom along with 150 top companies in the elite Business Council on National Issues if Canadians rejected the accord. They con- trol corporate assets of $1 tril- lion). You can be sure they have the ear of government in their vested interests like NAFTA, etc. Ordinary Canadians get "the deafear. Noted anthropologist and hu- manMarian Margaket Mead said "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. It's the only thing thathas." The Reform party is the only logical choice to keep a watchdog on the old line parties wasteful ways. Dean J.

Pam Beadle, Prince Albert Thanks to local council To the Editor: Speaking on behalf of many residents on Portview Road, Scugog Island, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Port Perry Council for their de- cision to upgrade and pave this road and the Roads Depart- ment for accomplishing it. Considering that when we first moved on to this road (1942) it was not much more than a cow path, open only in the summer months, the trans- formation to a smoothly paved thoroughfare is a credit to the entire crew that accomplished this almost impossible task. Everyone, from the men on the rakes and shovels to the ma- chine operators, sub- contractors, foremen, etc., did an amazing job while appeasing as many home owners as possi- ble and still getting the road done properly. So to Ronn MacDonald and all of his crew, our hats are off to you!
