Eltection a "thriîlling experiene e" for NDP candidate Geoff Rison "This for me has been a thrilling experience,"1 said NDP candidate Geoff Rison, both at the UAW Hall, Ajax, where the NDP campaign headquarters were iocated and again at the William Legros Community Complex, w-.here the Pro- gres'sive Conservative supporters were watching the retufns coming in. Mr. Rison was one of the first of- the four defeated candidates to give his con- gratulations to Scott Fenneil. As the two first-tiniers at 1electioneering met in the Ajax Arena to shake hands Mr. Rison said he "feit relaxed." Both winner and loser said they ".enjoyed the campaidn and that it was "a dlean campa ign. One in which -no hard feelings towa-rd one another ",developed." Both, agreed>,that-it was a good campaign. Mr. Rison met Mr. Fenneli' as the Progressive Conser- vative Candidate was mingi-. ing with the mnany PC sup- porters that were moving about the arena either in time'to the music from a local band"or' rounds of ap-ý plause as the reëturns came in showing the PO's bèing ahead.' The,,NDP headquarters'in Ajax was. a place of' quiet confidence." The main thing was' that the NDP's in the Ontario Riding hIad made a general overail gain. They were flot disappointed that Mr. Rison hadn't won. He came in a good thrid in this election. When the first results -ame in with one poli having 99 votes for Rison, who led in that particular poil,' it brought forth app1ause~ and "yeas" from the supporters present. -Scott Fennèti wn Cont'd fjrom P. 15& and at was' fun. .He won, because Scott is flot a poiiti- cian ... he is a business man. In this campaîgn he was a success 'and he is going to be a, success in Ottawa. It is a good night. We have put a lot of work into this and we are so happy." Roif Posma the Uiberta- rian.canididate arrivedat.the Legros 'Arena, shortly after, midnight to .congratulate Scott ,Fennieill who was being saighands with Mr. Fenneli. It, was -noticed that Mr, Posma was wearîng'a Scott_., Fenneli button above 'his Libertarian button. He was 'heard to say that he was 'really happy that r.Fennel won. He'is the Libertarian wing of the Con- servative Party.', He wil make a good ýparliament mem ber." As Mr., Posma and'Mr. Fenneil shook, hands the comnment, I"Cafik.was ia good As thé results'began com-' ing in showing "the ND)P' candidate coming in at times low man on the totem pole Mr. Rison said that hé would't.,,be disappointedas long as we make good show- ing,: as it wiil make a better campaign for'the next time. We can use this as a base to work on. After ail I was flot' known and five weeks 'is a Short timne to blecome ac- .-qua inted with the public- and thé area., There were, il 'polîs, in which the NDP were leading at, 9 p.m. but shortlyafe that there was a change. For 'a whii e it looked "as though we are going to be second, " Mr. Risoný said. He then said "it is clear what has happened..iCafik ha's collapsed." Mr. Rison agreed with some of. the, campaign workers and'supporters that. "the<Liberal vote went Pro- gressive Conse rvative." He had a feeling that Cafik knew this. was going to hapapen" then he said he wouid be "uit happy runfi- ing .in. second."' Mr. Rison said he would be taking one day off for a. rest" after election day then would "resume.teachiing duties, on *Thursday." He was having one day off "to' recover and then he would set exams. It (exam- ination time) ýwon'.t beanyý- more hectic than- what this (campaign). has been. It was a_ goodexperience."- ýMr. Rison,did' express "isurprise at Whitby; 1 thought we wouldhave dune .a lot h~etter. We had agood THE ,TOTrALSSMID If 7FOR RMON paign in Whitby and in Bay Ridges and'even had pockets of %upport in the north. But then we did have some good ones in Whitby and some of the polîs in Ajax went NDP. When. one poli brought in 108 votes for Mr. Rison he said, "that's super." One of the campaign workers told Mr. Rison that there were two new subdivi-, sions west of the Brock Road in- Pickering -where the, owners had been in,, their homes ý"a little' more, than two mffonths." "These twoý. new subdivisions w ent PC in almnost a landside." Mr.Rison's comment was, "th.lere 'is a glÏimmer of hope. -When they get6overthe'shock and not be recleiving the mortgagc money; there is hope for the NDP. I arn going to stick with it one more time. We - are 'not going to lose the' ground that wé have already àot,."* THE CORPORATION 0OF THE TOWN0F WHITBT PROCLAMATION Wator Safoty, Week TAK E NOTICE THAT'th e week of June 4th to ,June th, 1979, is hereby proclalmed as "Canadian Red Cross Water Safety Week" ln and for the Town of Whitby to remind citizens that they shouid BE WATER WISE at ail times.- DATED at Whitby, 0Ontarlo this 3th day of May, A.D., 1979.
