the ifiarrir Examiner Published by Canadian Newspapers united 16 Bayfield Street Barrie ammo PAGE FOUR SATURDAY MAY EDITORIAL Welcome Coming Tourists With Friendly Courtesy Although the weather has not been too friendly to Barrie and simcoe Coun ty for some weeks with some optimism we can forecast that within few days there will be invaders from south of the border few invaders have already hit Ontario from the us in search of fish but found the generally in the same frozen type retailed in tins All this is to change About two weeks from how usually corresponding with our Victoria weekend holiday many thousands of Americans will hit the highways north seeking holiday relaxation One of the se days someone will spot an the main street of Barrie licence plates roading Ohio or Pennsylvania maybe even No braska Are these thousands of tourists and many of them will be from such can federated provinces as Quebec and Ma nitoba going to remember and talk about Barrie when they return home This will depend largely on the recep tion they may receive while they are in our city the newest city in Canada stilli Each year the newspaper people in cmopeiation with the Ontario Depart ment of Travel and Publicity bring in many US editors for rapid tourof our province and they invariably re turn home to write glowing accounts of the beauties and opportunities of Canada This brings many visitors north of their undefended peaceful border SO what is the reaction What do all of us do The Chamber of Commerce in the past has striven to hang out the Wel come sign to our many visitors and no doubt the same will he done this year SeawayNow Going Concern Disappointment has been expressed that the tonnage carried through the St Lawrence Seaway has been loss than the objectives set by toll committee in 1058 These tolls were set so us to pro duce sufficient revenue to pay off con Jstruotlon costs in 50 years different view is taken in the cur rent business review of the Bank of Mon treal which believes the estimates for an annual movement rising from 25 mil lion tons to 33 million in the first three years should not be considered as arbit rary standards That the experience of the Seaway in its first two seasons has fallen somewhat below initial and nec essarvlly conieotural predictions is scar cely cause for disappointment or alarm the Review states The Seaway has had some technical difficulties as was inevitable in the init ial operation of such an extensive en gineering project Notably there were serious delays inApril 1959 as hundreds of ships waited to enter the Seaway for along with the coopcratlon of person nel of stores and restaurants Visitors to some citiu in the United States and few in Canada have dis played keen interest in the welcome sign they received from the police which has resulted in much favorable com ment on the part of the tourists in cluding letters of appreciation to the municipal authorities After spending time visiting stores or dining in restaurant they have returned to their car to find ticket on the windshield indicating they over parked or violated some other traffic regulation in the particular municipa lity they are visiting The sign of the ticket usually darn pens their spirit Not is the case in some communities ThEy pick up the ticket with some misgivings but find on it message of welcome and ex pressing the hope that they areen joyingthelr visit to the community At the same time the ticket points out that they have violated one of the traf fic regulations but as they are visitors no penalty will be imposed Immedia tely the tourists take more friendly view of the community and tell others what nice place such and such com munity is and the reception they re celved It would be nice to hear about Barrie being extolled in this way And we be lieve it could if the City Council and the Chamber of Commerce could get together with the police department and work out similar plan to that which has created so much goodwill ni some other cities in Canada and the United States the first time Both ships crews and lock operators were inexperienced at first and there were some accidents But the Seaway has steadily improved in effic iency and safety and improvements are still proceeding with transit times through the locks being out sharply The Review thinks that the seaways early record provides reassuring evid ence that this enlarged maritime artery to the heart of the continent is already despite inevitable growing pains ex panding and facilitating the flow of trade and that it will continue to do so It recalls the official opening or the Seaway by the Queen and Mr Eisen hower two years ago and points to the contrast between that coremonlal occa sion and the admittance of waiting ships to the waterway at the start of the third season on April 15 The routine passage of regular cargo vessels indicates clearly that the Sea way dream which took more than 50 years to become reality is now going concern IViews Other Editors WELCOME PEOPLE Sudbury star People who look on tourists as dollar signs have been given new concept by Hon Bryan cathcart Ontario minister or travel and publicity The minister told the North Bay Lakeshore Resorts Asso ciation that the tourist industry gives to Canadians the opportunity to build friendshipbetween nations Through visitors to our country we are enabled to judge the qualities of others as they are able to judge us Sure 1y this is one way we can help build world peace through our mutual friend ship Mr Cathcart makes point that many Canadians can take to heart Too many do not see tourist as welcome guest Rather they turn Xray eyes on his poc ketbook and figure out how much money they can take away from him before he moves on to the next point in his four ney Why is it that tourists will return year after year to the same place Why is it they will visit an area one year and avoid it like the plague thereafter In arnumber of casesit is the greed of the tourist operator or the resort area to bleed the visitorofhis vacation money Like communities that operate speed traps for revenue purposes it doesnt take long for the word to spread The brand of tourist prices is stigma Perhaps many will get the message from Mr people and that they come to this coun try to learn about us If the gospel is spread that we are more interested in them than in their money tourists will find accommodation in short supply 7Paidgrap1jiiea11y Speaking What would you do if the world were to come to an end asks writer Wed enter into the
