"We are working hard on amendments to the plan," said Mr. Bernkop- Schnurch during a Scugog Chamber of Commerce meeting in Port Perry Thursday night. "If we can finalize all of these things, we hope we can get shovels in the ground next week." He made his comments after Mississaugas Chief Gary Edgar had taken the stage to tell the dozen or so Chamber members, gath- ered for a discussion of the provincial budget, that the Island project has been misrepresented in stories and letters in the local press. He said years of re- search and study have been carried out to ensure the project will be econom- ically viable, and environ- mentally sound. "We want you to know Diabetes Day we are not going into this thing blind at all," said the Chief. "We're looking at this business venture because it offers our people levels of entry at every level, whether it's somebody who parks cars or some- body who's eventually go- ing to be manager. "We want you to know we are very serious about being part of the business community, and we are doing something that's go- ing to make a huge differ- ence in this region." After his speech, the Chief called for attention from people chatting over coffee, and tried to get Durham East MPP John O'Toole to pledge "protec- tion" for the Island project in light of talk of a casino in Oshawa. That city may hold a referendum on the issue. Mr. O'Toole said the Is- land hall should have sup- port, but stopped short of saying he'd try to block plans for an Oshawa casi- no.
