\YI'1TBY ERFEPRESS.,\VEl)NILSI)AY. Eil1,iAY 1I.1)81, PGE3 Two weeks left to buy 1981 stiekers With only three weeks ieft in which to buy 1981 licence stickers, motorists here in Wiitby have failen behind in the purchasing of the green stickers from this same time last year. To date, between 5600 and 5700 licence stickers have been bought in Whitby, down almost 300 from last year, according to Ministry of Transportation and Com- munications employee Joan Vesey. "We still have between 15,000 and 16,000 stickers lef t to seli but usuaily we seli the bulk of them in February," said Vesey. Motorists must have their 1981 licence stickers on the rea licence plate by mid- night February 28,. If they do not have their stickers displayed police will start to hand out $28 tickets to aIl violators caught without them March 1. Motorists will be happy to find that the price of the stickers has not gone up from last year. The costs are $30 for a four-cylinder car, $45 for a six-cylinder car, $60 for an eight-cylinder car, and $80 for a car built after 1977 with an engine displacement of more than 6.5 litres. Motorcycle licence stickers are $20. 1981 licence stickers can be bought at Donal Travel on Brock Street South in down- town Whitby, the lower level of the Sheridan Mail in Pickering, Pelshock Motors on Bayly- Street in Ajax and at the MTC offices on thickson Roa l'in Oshawa. IlWe generally seli over 20,000 stickers by the end of February," said Vesey. With only 5600 stiekers sold thus far the real crash will be starting within the next few weeks. Ministry employees warn motorists to, buy their stickers now in order to ease the final onslaught. George Ashe Ashle acelaimed Durham West Tory candlidate By MICHAEL KNELL Free Press Staff The Durham West Progressive Conservative Association acclaimed George Ashe as their can- didate in the upcoming Mar- ch 19 provincial election. Ashe who has been the MPP since the 1977 cam- paign told the party faithful that the prime concern of his campaign will be to "carry on the good government for Ontario. " He told about 150 people meeting in the Ajax High Schooi that he bas been "a member who has concerns for ahl the people I have at- tempted to represent." Ashe, a former mayor of Pickering, also said that Durham West should have a member of the legisiature "ton the government side of the house. " The parliamentary assistant to the Minister of Energy said that leadership wiii be an issue in this elec- tion and praised Premier Bill Davis saying that he gave "strong leadership. " Ashe's other major issue is energy saying that the major thrust of Tories policies is to not only find alternative and renewable sources but to emphasize conservation.- "We have a great future," he said of the energy situation adding that Ontario's electrical generating program is one "of the best in the worid. " Touching briefly on On- tario's heaith care system. Ashe iashed out at the criticism given it by the op- position parties and said that doctors have the right to "opt-out" of OHIP. "'Isn't that our democratic choice? " he asked. However, physicians leaving OHIP hasn't preven- ted access to the health care system, he ciaimed. Everyone has "access to high level universal health care," he said adding, "We have nothing to be ashamed of in health care in this province." Ashe announced that con- struction of the long awaited LCBO warehouse in Whitby will start sometime before summer. If he is re-elected, Ashe said that he will seek fun- ding to re-open the second floor of Whitby's Dr. J.O. Ruddy Hospital and for im- provements for the A lax- Pickering Hospital.
