It was judged best on foreign policy, national unity. constitutional reform, social welfare and women’s status. It was most critical on unemployment and taxation. The only two local issues which were described as main issues were the new airport in Picker- ing Township (13.7%) and com- mutet transportation (12.9%). ‘ I was interested in the opin- ion people have on the accur- acy of the media. | What kind of job do you‘ think TV. radio. and the news-1 papers do in fairly and accur-I How?

In 1968 the Liberal Party Leader in York Simcoe polled roughly 16,000 votes, the Conservatives 13,000 the NDP 6.000. As a percentage of total eligible voters the 1968 results are virtually the same as the present voting intention re- vealed by the questionnaire. 1968 election results â€" LIB- ERAL 35.5%.

They should be interpreted with cau- tion and a very large pinch of salt. The views of the public may have changed greatly from the dreary days of March to the spring breezes of June. More- over, people who answer quest- ionnaires are not necessarily representative of the popula- tion as a whole â€" I believe they are more involved with politics than most, and I also suspect that those who are strongly op- posed. or strongly in favor of‘ the government respond to a greater degree than those who are moderate in their views. Assessment Party Leaders Early in the spring I sent out a questionnaire, asking people for their assessment of issues and personalities in federal pol- itics.

The stripping of the timber re- sources from the land and lowering of the water level and decreased flow in the rivers, hence the slackening Pressures will continue to m o u n t for development around the old village. The proposed subdivision to the south of the old village is an example. If we are to have a viable community, we must be prepared for development when it comes and channel it into sound planning concepts which must be prepared in the form of a secondary plan.

The space between the sleepers was filled with earth, and earth was sprink- led over the top planks to muffle the rumble of wagon wheels and horses' hooves.

Leave it to us to get it to them Tolls charged were not high but in spite of this and heroic attempts to keep the roads in repair, the plank roads were not really a great success. The building of the Grey and Bruce Railway in 1869 sounded the death knell of the plank roads. By the 1880’s most attempts at plank road maintenance were abandoned. Some plank roads were converted to stone roads and some were abandoned to concession roads which were in better condition. 3 Rockport Cresc.

This should not inhibit a healthy competitive interrelationship between the new and the old. the removal of two structures of historical interest. A great deal of co-operation will be required if this trend is to be discontinued. Finally. the Secondary Plan shows that the proposed new shopping area should be restricted to certain uses ex- cluding those uses which could properly and profit- ably be included in the existing commercial area of Kleinburg.
