PORN "A Family Tradition for 128 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, May 10,1994 - 9 I _ETTERS Prize possession stolen from area boy To the person or persons that stole my 10-year-old's dirt bike Thursday, May 5. I hope you get as much enjoy- ment from your new found for- tune, as my son would have had if you had not stolen his dirt bike. You see, you didn't just steal a kid's bike, you also stole his dream. This bike was virtually his only Christmas present this past year. Contrary to what you might think we are not rich, so much so that it wasn't insured because we couldn't afford to in- sureit. My husband worked many long, long hours trading his me- chanical services with the pre- vious owner just to help pay for the bike. After several months of my husband and son working together to fix it up just right, my son was finally ready for his first race, this Sunday (May 8). You took his prize possession before he really had a chance to enjoy it. I hope you have lost as much sleep over this as we have this weekend, but somehow I doubt it. If you had a shred of decency or a conscience you wouldn't have done this to a 10-year-old boy in the first place. A resident of, Greenbank Fighting gambling To the Editor: The front page of the Oshawa Times Friday, May 6, high- lights the concerns for Scugog Island that I publicly spoke to, nearly two years ago. A 2,000 seat, seven-days-a- week, Monte Carlo-style Casino and Bingo Hall, supported ap- parently by the provincial and federal governments, and sev- eral semi-retired self-made un- known millionaires, is not wanted or required on Scugog Island. There has been no con- sultation with local tax-paying residents by the board or any level of government, including our local one. This, of course, will be an election issue, at least here on the Island, this fall. In fighting this "pie in the sky" "damn the local residents" issue, we will demand funding from the two senior levels of government, in order to pay le- gal bills and other expenses at- tached to fighting this retro- gressive step. We are also demanding equal time for meet- ings with the federal and pro- vincial ministers who are sup- porting this project with our public funds. This Mississauga Band has only a handful or two of mem- bers. Yet, they receive hundred of thousands of dollars every year from the Public Treasury. Their new heritage seems to be gambling, in its many forms, on Scugog Island. We strongly oppose, and will fight it every step of the way as we see many problems associated with gam- bling.
