local gain When the Regional Board was formed all assets and liabilities of the former boards were by law passed to the new board Many properties since that time have been declared surplus by the They died Regional Board In many cases the local Municipality tried to purchase the facility for a token fee In every case in the past these offers were rejected usually to howls of But we paid for that

before the present election taking place today Great men gave their lives and their time and more pitifully many are lying in hospital for life from the first and second war so we the fortunate could have the privilege of voting for our choice of type of government Had we lost either war I feel the public should be reminded that they would have NO choice of type of moil had these same men not sacrificed their lives in their prime of life we today would not have the privilege of voting for our choice I feel personally that any one that did riot vote today has slapped our veterans dead and alive in the face and led us dammed fools to fight for a privilege we felt important and you feel today that it was a waste of time and lives Anyone who did not vote today should hang their head in

benefits a small percentage of taxpayers at the expense of the majority 4 a sale at market price would provide funds to benefit all taxpayers by either reducing taxes or increasing services These facts should be known to all trustees and are known to the Ministry of Education As it stands when the Ministry turns down the proposal as I think it will it will be so easy for the local trustees to make the Ministry the fall guy It would be more honorable by far for the trustees to not only face the facts but to ex plain the facts I think every area should have a museum and expanded library services but only to the extent that they are af fordable Certainly such local sovices should not be at the expense of every taxpayer in the Region RR1 Mount Albert Ontario In addition to teaching in
