Locally we may be treated to a miniature version of the national scene. Scott Fenneil, although an avowed supporter of red Tory, Joe Clark1 in the last election,, will feel very comfortable with right wing Bnian Mulroney. if, as rumour-has it, Gary Herrema, the Chairman of Durham Region, should represent the Liberals in Ontario' Riding, then we have another night wing politician after the night wing vote. For those who are not yet ready to join the rush to the right the only place to be in the next election will be at home not voting, or taklng more positive actioli and registerng a vote for New Democrats, It may well be tlit many voters will soon realize that It is New Democrats who roolly push for the bwit inz terests of giVtrâqý Canadians.

Lots in this subdivision of single family homes do not have all 50-foot frontages. However, the 40-foot fron- tage lots are pie shaped and the minimum size is 7.600 square foot. Our council is to be commended for addressing this subdivision as square footage as opposed to the required frontage of 5-feet. When you think of a home and grounds, you tend to think of indoor and outdoor space, not the actual frontage. This is a step in the right direction, keep up the good work.
