a2 tribune may 13 1987 from out of the past dear editor recently i observed a group of men sweeping our main street i was astounded this is 1987 1 thought our town had progressed past this point were in the machine age doesnt our municipality have a moto- rized streetcleaner f i thought id entered a time zone of maybe 1927 surely our road mens hours could be put to better use amanda blake

their animals on public property its a good idea but a little pre mature said mayor fran sains- bury at a may 5 protection to per sons and property committee meeting according to chief building official bruce arrowsmith en forcement of such a ruling is ex tremely difficult by the time anyone arrives to investigate a complaint someone could pardon the expression re move the evidence said mayor eldercare manor retirement living v with the a pspfojts ofhorne sainsbury prior to feb 12 1987 municipa lities did not have legislative au thority to pass bylaws of this na ture however they are now emp owered to pass a regulation re quiring owners of dogs to keep their animals on leashes and clean up any excrement left by the dog at present markham and vaughan are the only municipali ties to implement this bylaw with a potential fine of up to 2000 but have reported selfevident diffi culties in its enforcement ninetynine per cent of the complaints we receive are from people who say their child fell in it while playing in the park said mr arrowsmith yet by the time we get there theres abso lutely no evidence for prosecu tion or someone who knows who the dog belongs to refuses to go to court and testify councillor margot marshall felt neighbors should be encouraged to watch over other dogowners and request them to use the scooper we dont have the staff to fol low everyone around she said im not so sure dogs have to be kept on leashes said councillor jim sanders however i think if we did have this sort of bylaw on the books it would reduce the problem but how do you prove it asked councillor wilf morley hand outs hand outs dear editor over the years people espe- cially those whose political think- ing is right of centre have com- plained of too much government- interference in their lives this is particularly true of those in the business and commercial world however when these same peo pie have a bad year and suffer a financial loss they ask the gov- eminent to bail them out with sub sidies grants and other goodies the western farmers have their demands the oil companies want tax concessions fruit grow- ers request help after losing their peach crops to frost parents want the government to look af- ter their children and so on a few years ago the ski resorts went through a bad winter with little snow they too requested assistance from the government to keep them out of the red on one hand its government keep out and on the other its government give me surely profits gleaned in pre- vious years should be able to offset one seasons loss provi sions should be made for this pos sibility i say let supply and demand dictate business in this way the market place should be able to take care of itself subsidies concessions and such only help create surpluses that tend to pile up in government warehouses these cant be sold or disposed of except under pro- duction costs supply and demand regulates production so why doesnt the government keep out of business at the production level and lessen the burden on its finances let the producer take the risk of loss the producer tends to be less efficient in management if there is a dependency on financial help from the government to con tinually bail him out i ask who is next on the govern- ment welfare list sincerely adam johnstone rr 1 stouffville notice to all residents of the town of markham notice of
