GEORGE ASilE, MPP (PC -Durham West) Taxpayers footed bill for political college The Liberal government of Ontario recently sent 120 political aides to a weekend "college" at tax- payers' expense . ..an indicated $30,000, 1 might add. These were not civit servants, but direct political employees of the party in power. A six-page memo outlining the event, and direc- ted to participants, was issued through the Premier's office and marked "Confidential". Notice of this event was given to no one except those directly involved through the party, and had it not been for the diligence of a newspaper reporter, from the Toronto Sun, migbt neyer have corne to light. The funding of tbis kind of expenditure is ini direct violation of the Manual of Administration whicb states that functions of this nature must be paid for out of party funds. It is this same Manual of Administration which the current government, when in Opposition, in- sisted and quite correctly, that the former Conser- vative government follow to the letter. In tbis in- stance, therefore, igorance of the rules is no excuse. When questioned by reporters about the planned retreat, and the apparent misuse of taxpayers' money, Premier Peterson said, "I'm sur- prised ... that the question bas been raised (and) I frankly dont see what's so strange about it. At bis swearing-in ceremony, Premier Peterson promised Ontarians an "accountable" government, and one "witbout walls". This action, along witb the recent $1,000 member- ship fee affair to get the ear of the Premier and Cabinet (see column of Sept. 24) negates botb ac- countability and openness on tbe part of Peterson's government. Ontarians have a right to know how their money is being used. They also bave a right to question any government expenditures wbich appear to be out of line. eesn wn If Premier Ptro doesn't t to explain this expenditure to the press, perbaps questions fromn Ontarians wîil remind hlm of bis responsibility to let the people of this province know why this political "ýcollege" was paid for out of tax dollars!
