If it was your money you spent, I'd like to hear it and apologize; but for goodness sake, please stop conning us - or do you really think we all still believe in Mother Goose? A)jobsOntario is an affront to intelligence. You weave lovely stories with back-to-work- figures. Now tell us what Bob Rae's "expertise" cost Ontario in taxes to pay for all that back- to-work stuff. B) Try to believe that busi- ness knows how to run business and government's track records indicate that they know not what they do. When a business fails, it is because it should, not because it was bled to death by politically-induced genocide. C) Let business apprentice the unskilled by lifting taxes to permit them to do that..let business train the unskilled to their own particular criteria or, does it make more sense to you to "pay" folks from taxes? D) We know that you are not responsible for three levels of governments; trouble is, nobody is. Which posses a thorny ques-- tion: "Why do we put up with all of you?" ) Tell me you are indispens- GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CERTIFICATES e ANNUAL RATES ° 1 YEAR......ccoeeeeerereceeeneee. 7.6% 2 YEAR..........coceeeireeeeee. 7.6% DB WEAR ....oincnreaniireverseonsesse Tol DVo 4 YEAR...........cceneiieereeeee. 8.0% 5 YEAR............cceeeeeeenee.... 8.125% Rates subject to change without notice SCUGOG FINANCIAL SERVICES A DIVISION OF CRESSBROOK FINANCIAL PLANNING LTD. 250 QUEEN STREET - PORT PERRY "Serving Scugog for Over 15 Years" PHONE 985-3832 A Worthwhile Challenge able and I'll tell you you're an entrepreneur. Canada could be run by a few unselfish brains supervising innovative and eco- nomical national referen- dums..that's rule by the people. Who could scarcely do worse. Referendums could put integri- ty in command and empower our peopfe to right wrongs that get written in stone. There's lots of those. F) Inept law? Retire it to mu- seums alongside the equally awesome dinosaurs. Less than six pages of lay, written, erimi- nal and civil law, can banish crime and enjoy life as heaven on earth for the deserving: Hell on earth for the rest..and do it all with the demise of lawyers, judges. G) Please put these things on your platform, or send me $7.85 for my booklet promoting non violent, national revolt. I'm told only money moti- vates, and the tax revolt proves it. Well, next time crime claims a victim: that tax lay-off crumb didn't help.

O'RIORDAN Owner/Manager/Funeral Director Res: 985-0608 216 Queen Street Port Perry GOLDEN RULE, To the Editor: The use of the Nurse Prac- titioner ap to have be- come a subject of concern among some residents in the community of Port Perry and the surrounding area. Research in the United States and Canada over the last 26 years indicates that care provided by the Nurse Practitioner results in fewer interventions, fewer hospi- talizations, and long-term health such as better hypertension control, better weight control and improved compliance to treatment. Nurse Practitioners have repeatedly demonstrated ef- fectiveness in managing chronic hypertension and di- abetes, to name a few. Nurse Practitioner servic- es have shown to reduce costs to the system through reduced use of ambulatory and emergency room servic- es, hospital utilization rates, radiology, and laboratory costs. Nurse Practitioners em- phasize health promotion and dise tion. A system structured around people keeping ple healthy costs fess an NPs considered an essential service ase/injury preven- one that is focused on illness treatment. Nurse Practitioners are al- ready working in Ontario and performing additional controlled acts under delega- tion from physicians. Once the Nurse Practitioner role is acknowledged in Téa. tions, physicians will no longer need to delegate the additional controlled acts and the Nurse Practitioner will be able to carry out these activities without reference to a physician. The roles of the Nurse Practitioner and the physi- cian have always been com- plimentary and itis ex d that the professions of nurs- ing and medicine will contin- ue to work together in a col- laborative manner to safely and efficiently provide the best care possible for the peo- -ple of Ontario. In considering the impor- tance of nurses, Ontario law prohibits them from striking because they are considered an essential work force. No similar prohibition against the right to strike has ever . been enacted against Onta- rio's doctors. .Sincerely, Gord Mills, MPP, Durham East There is an easy way to do accounting!
