"Quebec: Revolutionary Age. 1760-1791" by H. M. Neat- by was her choice. Although the book does not offer any solutions for today’s problems, she found life along the St. Lawrence very interesting in- deed. The British sent generals as governors but the task of governing was almost impos- sible: The seigneurs had more in common with the British merchants than with the Canad- lens. There were so many kinds of money in circulation that business was done by barter. The laws Were confused and there was no backlog to refer to. There were many quarrels with the church. All in all, the system of the generals created relatively humane administra- tions and Mrs. Van Den Hoek quoted from an article in Mac- lean's Magazine, “Individually, French Canadians are charm- ing: collectively. they need a good kick in the pants".

He stated that King Township has little to of- fer any industry â€"â€" no serviced industrial sites, no labor pool and no housing for workers in industry, “but this would be a start. at least. The assessment proposals are contained in the assessment manual issued by Queen's Park and adopted by York County Council in 1964. However. the manual has since had numer- ous amendments as well as sev-} eral pages deleted so that only future tax bills will show farm- ers just how their land is being‘ assessed. . The councillor’s statement followed reading of a letter from the Central Ontario Regional Development Council which stated an industry from western Canada was seeking a site in the CORDA Region for a ware- house. Reeve Gordon Cook rev fer-red the letter to Councillor Rowe, who is chairman of the township’s industrial commis- sion, with a chuckle. “People with big estates don't want to be in the centre of an industrial area," he warned as he strengethened his argument for a designated area. “Every- body wants industry until it goes next door to them."
