JOHN ADDISON REPORTS In this the final week of the election campaign, I would like to report to the voters of York North my views on effective representation for this area. I have tried my best to be a good member of parliament since first elected in 1962. I promised then, and I intend to continue it if re-elected on November 8th. that I would represent all York North constituents regardless of political affiliation. I said that I would be available to my constituents weekends at my home in King Township or at my office in Ottawa. Both these promises still stand. I have maintained an office at 40 Yonge Street South in Richmond Hill since first elected. My office and my home phone numbers are 884-1351 and 773-5193, respectively. A leg~ itimate request for assistance has never been turned away or brushed aside. Your problems are my problems. As your MP. I have tried to be always accessible. I do not intend to change that. I believe a rail commuter service for York North residents will be a distinct asset. My survey in 1963 proved there was a need. Now, it is nearing reality. Experimental runs of commuter-style trains were made on October Blst and November lst, 1965. to Newmarket. I will be presenting a brief in support of a commuter service to a meeting of the Metro Toronto and Region Transportation Study committee on November 18th in the Richmond Hill council chambers. Your active support will add considerably to its weight. Throughout my term of office as your MP, I have reported to you regularly. My weekly newspaper report from Ottawa. my Sunday radio broadcasts over CFGM. and my monthly letter from Ottawa to 1600 residents are the means used to keep you informed. >0n major issues. I have mailed to every home in York North reports of my activities. In these, I have asked for your opinions on important matters such as commuter service and capital punishment. Your response has permitted me to rep- resent your views accurately. On the matter of capital punish- ment, you have indicated that a majority favours retention. If re-elected, I shall carry that view to Ottawa. In this election, I stand for continuance for another five years of the high level of progress and prosperity Canadians everywhere have enjoyed for the last 2% years of Liberal government. The Liberal Party's platform for the future will ensure a higher standard of living, greater social security, more and better jobs. and educational aid for all Canadians. I have always done my best to think and act as a Canadian for the national good. My viewpoint is not tainted by narrow regionalism. In Ottawa, where we are concerned with employ- ment, foreign affairs, national defence, external trade. banking and commerce, transportation policies and social security, MP5 like myself must think in terms of a Canadian approach to a problem. not a provincial viewpoint. 1f re-electcd, I intend to work diligently at Ottawa, in the House. in caucus and on committees, as well as here in York North as your MP. I intend to contribute and be a part of a Liberal team that will ensure five more years of prosperity and unparalleled growth. I ask for your vote on November 8th in order to continue as a strong voice representing your interests and the interests of all Canadians. Sincerely. Liberal Candidate in York North Inserted by the York North Liberal Association v.va ....-._
