Evans accuses Ashe of falling short on many of the issues facing the electo rate CONT'D PROM PG. 5 government bumbling. 'II arn personally opposed to abortion, however, I wiI neyer have to make that choice," he says, 'II support the current federai legisiation on abortion but our party would pursue a prudent middle course on abortion." Instead of allowing people such as Morgen- taler to carry on as tbey have, the Liberals would ensure broader access to abortion, family planning and other women's health care problema tbrough local and regional bospitals. Hospitals that don't have abortion committees and other gynacological health programa will ha encouraged and funded to establish them. But, Evans adamently rejects abortion as a form of birth control. 'II arn convinced that abortion as a form of birth control demeans the human spirit." Abortions would not ha in such great demand, he continues, if the governmnent had provided adequate educational, social and financial support to single mothers. He notes that there are great numbers of people willing to adopt infants in a province "where there are more abortions than there are births. " Evans, a lawyer, also says the government was wrong to appeal Morgentaler's acquittai. "The law has been upheid," he said, "the larger issue is that the decision of the jury bas been appeaied and 1 don't agree with that at al." But the primary focus of this campaigning continues to ha economic issues such as unemployment and the deficit. "Unemploymneft is a drain on the human spirit," Evans says. "It is unacceptable both socially and morally and bas given us a lost generation of young people." The best long term solution to unem- ployment, especially for young people, is education. "The hast way to learn about working is by working," Evans says. He points out that in Europe 80 per cent of ail young people have skilled training or a professional standing by the time they leave the education systemn. In Canada, that figure is 20 per cent. He also notes that 60,000 to 80,000 skilled jobs will ha unifilled this year in Ontario. Em- ployers will have to bring 'in workers fromn Europe to fi many of these jobs. "It is a travesty and a disgrace to have to import skilled labor, especially when s0 many of our young people are unempioyed. " A Liberal government would expand skill training and apprenticeship programs, and introduce ful co-operative education programs for ail grade 12 students. "We must have an intelligent, targeted education program, " he says, adding that this bas not happened because the Tories "cant work with labor and industry." They are too tied to the business world to seek compromise and concilliation. And the Lihrals, he believes, can do*exac- tly that. And while the Tories in botb Ottawa and Queen's Park are saying that the deficit is the primary economnic issue, Evans disagrees. "In Ontario, unempioyment is a larger issue and a larger problemn than the deficit," Evans maintains pointing out that if more people are working, more dollars will ha spent, more tax revenues can ha earned which will eventually reduce the deficit. The candidate also notes that durîng the 1960's "Ontario was first in ail major economic indicators." In the 1970's, Ontario was in last place. This year, the province will ha eigbth among ail the provinces in real economnic growth. "'That's the Tory record," he said adding that their Entreprise Ontario program is no solution. "Ail tbey are doing la throwing money at the problem witb no guarantee of jobs," he saya. "They have a groas confusion of priorities" J0M1 ,CHECKOURLOWLOW ~ SPRING PRICES Due to our ou ut erhe(ud ue pa.u lhe lavings oflt(> 1ou' BRAKE RELINE (most cars) $44.'9 FRONT OR REAR TUNE UPS FROM'2.9 GENERAL REPAIRS TO ALI MAKES 530 KENT ST. AT BEECH ST. As far bas he is concerned, the incumbent MPP for Durham West, George Ashe, has "fallen short" on many of the issues plaguing this riding and this province. "What bas Mr. Ashe given Durham West? An expanded nulear facility of questionable safety without adequate, publically known emergency measures. A huge lot of vacant land in the north that cannot be farmed and is not being developed. Hospital s that have inadequate emergency faclities and inadequate care. A GO.ALRT systemn that no one else will buy, that is untried and on wich his own constituents wlll be experimented with, " he says. "He also bas given a dumping site in north Pickering that is currently breaching the En- vironmental Protection Act," Evans added. "What he hasn't given Durham West is. adequate funding to ensure that the municipalities and the hospitals provide for the needs of bis constituents.
