Freeway to Albion Road, was awarded to Quebec Problem The Conservative Party must Move quickly and efficiently if it is to restore the confidence of Quebec, Victor Coleboum told the Mimico Women's Progressive Con- Iervltive Association Monday. The Progressive Conservative candidate for the federal riding of York-Humber said that the fact must be accepted that the party has suffered in the past because of its inability to project 111 image compatible with the people of Quebec. , PC's Must Change Views "Quebec is I pmvince whose in- stitution: and people are primarily eomserrative in nature, not with- standing even the present 'quiet Councillor Robert McPherson told Council Monday night they were making a mistake by not leaking an injunction immediately against the owner of the Weston Road Plaza.

These are identi- cal to what Quebec is attempting to solidify today. Thus, Conserve- tive philosophy and the Quebec evo- lution are compatible. That is why Quebec needes the Progressive Con- servative Party as much as the Conservative Party needs Quebec. The decline of progress in Quebec can be related back to 1891 when Atuetree became 's,otte-ptsrty prov- "nee. Obviously, no province can ‘place all of its eggs in one basket, When Mayor Wes Boddington suggested that the owner be given two more weeks in which to install a guard-rail along Weston Road, Mr. MacPherson said, "I don't think we should give this man more weeks. We've been playing, around with him far too long.

Continuing, he said, "Sinee the 1891 election, when Quebec return- ed 35 Liberals against 30 Conserva- tives, until 1963 when 52 Liberals were sent to Ottawa against 8 Con- servatives, only once, in 1958, has the province switched support to another party. This has brought about a two-way penalty. For the Conservative Party it has meant we have spent most of the last 74 years in opposition. For Quebec it has meant a lagging behind most of English-speaking Canada both eoeillly and‘ economically. Un- fortunately, and what must suiely (Continued on page :3) Councillor L. G.

However, he changed his mind and said he was willing to go along for two more weeks when Mr. Boddington informed Council that the owner had stated that I Scarborough firm had been con- tracted to do the work. Mr. Boddington contended that the dangerous situation had exist- ed for a year and a half and there was no harm in waiting another two weeks. "I think we're getting somewhere," he stated.

Weston Mayor Wes Boddington said the local rate drop was effected by holding the line on expenditures while the assessment increased from $26,763,492 in 1964 to $27,901,812 for the current year, an increase of 4.27 per cent. With the 1965 assessment figure each Till levy produces $27,901. The town’e finance committee' pared nothing trom the budgets submitted, totalling $1,845,128 re- quired from current revenue. Mr. Boddington lubed that the budgets had been pared to the bone before they reached the finance committee level. The 2.5 mill Board of Education increase is I result of increased teachers’ salaries according to 'tt spokesman for the Board, Clifford R. Merchant. He said that wages accounted for " per cent of the current budget. Other reasons given for the rise were the imple- mentation of the Robarta' plan and the introduction of free texts into grades 11 and 12. For public school supporters the total education levy excluding Metro (which finances all capital works for educational purposes) is 12.16 mills for residential proper- Water Users Will Be Tapped For Increase ’ The only comment given " Council to the new water rates came from Mayor Wes Bedding- ton. "It in warranted, I am mae," he said. The increase, a result of mount- ing debt charges for the supply of water throughout Metro, was made necessary by the Metropolitan To- .ronto Act which requires the sup- ply of water to be self sustaining. The increase from 16.87 cents per thousand gallons to each munici- pality to 19.9 cents is the first in- crease since January, 1959. The new rate will go into effect on July 1 and is expected to be reflected in increased water rates to the com sumer. 3 Mlll TAX lllll)lltllltlliihs LOCALDROPS A Mlll Fires And toss In Weston Op From 5 Yearheg.
