He said saine residonts may be using this ta thwart Alose's desire to seek higher rents ta help pay for the park redevelop- ment. (Tenants currontly pay $45 per week rent that includes hydro and water. A figure of $237 per month mentioned in iast week's Free Press was the rent tenants would have paid if a new park had been built in 1989.) Councillor Dennis Fox said council could not impose any conditions in the severance agreement which would guaran- tee the tenants' security. "In this economy there are no guarantees,» said Fax. "If we as a council don't try ta do everything we can ta make the par k oconamically viable, it will go under,» he added. Drumm was still not convin- ced. "We have a two-edged sword here"»said Drumm.

As for bis comments when confronting Nunney, "one can oniy hope it's because of bis y outh and immaturity and not because of any belief that ho is aboya the iaw,' said Grant. Defence counsol Levy coun- tered that it was "pure specula- tion" on Grant's part ta suggest Lindros tried ta "throw bis weight around." Levy said the fact that al defence witnesses gave different tostimony mereiy added ta their credibility." '&I suggest the very difference in their evidence is the essence of their trutb," ho said. Wbile evidence from the Crown witnesses did not stray too far from wbat appeared in two Toronto newspapers when Nunney talked ta reporters after she laid the charge, said Levy. "That's not as bad as agencies that receive a larger amount of maney," she said. In 1992, the Whitby-based Durham Region YMCA received $98,000 fromn the United Way.

"It seems we're called upon more than ever to offset govern- ment programs," said Sheasby. "Go to the Salvation Army and they>lI Iook after your need s," is often the advice given to those in need, hie said. Sheasby mentioned that a fire victim once came into the office and expected to have every piece of destroyed furniture replaced. While obviously not objecting to poviding assistance, Sheasby said he Salvation Army can only do what its resources permit.
