George Ashe, MPP (PC - Durhiam West) A good job On Sunday, Jan. 15, 1984, 1 was pleased to attend the fund-raising dinner for the Ajax-Pickering Hospital. This event, which was held at the Pickering Recreation Centre, was attended by about 5M0 decicated residents and business people of the Ajax-Pickering area, who demonstrated their support for the planned addition to ou r hospital.. I would like to take this public opportunity to congratulate those dedicated volu nteers on a job well done. I feel that the event was one of which al residents of the Durham area could be justly proud. There were a number of elected officiais from al four levels of government in attendance at the fund- raising dinner. Commitments of support were ex- pressed on behalf of the Regional Mumicipality of Durham, the Province of Ontario, the Government of Canada, and the Towns of Ajax and Pickering. It was evident to those in attendance at the dinner that the improvement of health care fadilities in any ares across this country is not something which can be done by any one group or government alone. Ràther, it must take a concentrated effort by those people living in the Region, and those availing themselves of these health care services to ensure that all levels 0f Government which they elect are aware of the important role that these improved services wilI play for each and every one of us. Those people in the ares who are dedicated to the improvement of heslth care services for ail residen- ts are encouraged by this support. The bottom line is certainly that those people who benefit directly or indirectly from these improved health care services will want to contribute to this project. In this light, I wish those people who make up the fund-raising committee the best of luck in meeting their goals and objectives, and I share their en- thusiasm that the level of heslth care wiil continue to be a high priority in Durham Region. You have my support. Speaking to You By SCOTT FENNELL (PC - Ontario) Budget blues This week the Minister of Finance, Marc Lalonde, made a surprise announcement in the House of Commons that he wiil be introducing a budget on February 15. Ail parties had been waiting for this announcement, but we neyer thought that the Prime Minister and his cohorts would pull such a sneaky and basically childish trick. As you are no doubt aware, during the week of February 13 through to the 17, Opposition Leader Brian Mulroney, had planned a European tour. Because he was aware that there was a possibility that the Liberals would be introducing a budget the following month, he contacted the Prime Minister and advised him that he would be away during that week. Mr. Mulroney then request that the Gover- nment not introduce any major House business during the week that he would be out of the country. The result was the the Prime Minister agreed te Mr. Mulroney's request. 0f course, our problem was that we assumed that the Prime Minister and his 11e-long pal, Mr. Lalon- de, would live-up to this agreement and behave in a. decent manner. Instead, true to form, they attem- ptéd to use the issue to their advantage, even though they were using something as senious as the Gover- rnent budget as a vehicle to attack Mr. Mulroney. It gives one a pretty clear ides 0f how serious the Government's intentions are toward the economy of Canada when they start puiling tricks lilce this. The only think Mr. Trudeau and Mr. Lalonde have succeeded in accomplishing, is to show their true characters to ail Canadians. Mr. Mulroney had decided to cancel his tour as he feels that the in- troduction of a budget is major House business and is of serious concern, an opinion which obviously the Prime Minister does not share. ~* ~ ~ .,.~ ~ t .
