educated now get annoyed at some peoplc who are critical of the school system and students he said He said education is really the interplay between students and teachers and not just the textbooks or courses taught Thats what education is all about he said Some problems do not involve the present education system he said Parents are looking for the school system to solve some problems which should be solved elsewhere he said Premier Davis said the parents complain children should spend more time studying and less time wat ching television or going out IIOW MLCII ask these parents how much time

do arithmetic It hasnt changed that much he said Premier Davis said the elementary school system which teaches students the basics in reading writing and arithmetic has not changed The premier was also questioned about the lack of government grants to the separate school system in On tario The government now provides grants based on elementary school costs to separate school students up to Gradelo Students in Grades 11 12 and 13 are not subsidized Premier Davis said the reason is historic Four years ago the govern ment set policy of not ex tending grants to the separate school system The basic reason is that the government wants one secon dary school system in the province and not two Thats the history and thats the policy he said The government does not really agree to the concept of two secondary school systems The premier was also questioned about Reed Paper and its agreements in Northern Ontario for timber rights gun control laws swine flu vaccmations and increasing

of the NDP and Dr Stuart Smith leader of the Liberals who did not invite to come along who could answer that better than me he said The reason did not invite them is because did not invite them

represen tation to three Mr Ihcaiie is member of St Marys laiish ONYSCHUK witness Mr Onyschuk argued that population of 12500tkthe citys target for the year 2011 could be accommodated by annexing only the lnnisfil land and leaving Vespra out The need to make room for growth to 123000 by 2011 has formed the basis of Barries argument RAt ONS FIGURES iting figures provided by Mr Bacon earlier iii the hearing Mr Onyschuk noted that the city will need to add only 8020 acres of usable urban land to its present boundaries to accommodate 125000 residents or only 7160 acres if the population figure is 110000 as set last week by Mr Arrell By contrast he said the Proctor and Redfern an nexation report of which Mr Bacon is coauthor shows that the 13500 acres sought from in nisfil includes 9900 acres suitable for urbanization You dont need annexation iii Vespra to allow for Barrics growth Mr Onyschuk said Mr Onyschuk noted that most of the land sought from Vespra including the Little Lake area and the commercial strip on Highway 26 lies in the Nottawasaga watershed which Mr Bacon has testified makes it unsuitable for development However Mr Arrell noted that city plans to service most of the Vespra area sought are consideration which has always been important to the OMB in annexation disputes if they can supply these areas they should be brought into the city he said Mr Onyschuk also pressed Mr Bacon to admit that city boundaries need not be ex tended with population growth and that 35 years is too far to look ahead for planning pur poses Mr Hacon stood his ground on both issues IIES TASK FORCE Citing the SimcoeGeorgian Arca Task Force report which forms the basis for the an ncxation studys target population Mr Onyschuk noted that it is not the city of Barrie but rather the Barrie urban area which is referred to in connection with growth to 125000 This whole area was to grow to 125000 he said Nobody said Barrie was to bog all this area foritself But Mr Bacon repeated his statement also basic to the annexation studythat urban areas should have urban gover nments think accommodation of population growth is best done within the city of Barrie so that urban problems can be dealt with by an urban municipality and not by rural recreational municipality he said He also stood firm on the need to plan through the year 2011 when Mr Onyschuk drew his attention to statements in the task force report suggesting planning time frame of 15 years think that one has to start from the longterm per spective Mr Bacon said believe that we are here dealing with an important part of provincial policy Mr Onyschuk said Mr Bacons own figures suggest that the residential capacity of the existing city will not be ex ceeded until at least 1989 making annexation before that date necessary only to obtain industrial land WOULDNT WORK Under crossexamination by Robert Lawrie lawyer for the county Mr Bacon said he is convinced cooperative plan ning of the Barrie urban area without annexation would not workparticularly in view of the friction which exists bet ween Barric and surrounding townships especially lnnisfil He said the townships would be able to provide meaningful input into the citys planning of the annexed areas but wavered on the point when pressed Perhaps Im being more op timistic than have right to be he said He defended his firms population projections which would give Barrie population of nearly 50000 by 1986 and said provincial estimates showing the 1986 figure as 39000 aretoolow He also expressed confidence that the province will provide adequate assistance with costs occasioned by growth in Simcoe County as recommended in the task force report It would only cost $25 to $30 million for countywide projected population of 500000 said compared to $300 million spent on the proposed North Pickering community which will house only 75000 The government wants this area to grow It said so he said citing the task force report and the TorontoCentred

Mayoralty candidate Ross Archer lists high among his priorities for the city the ex tension of Centennial Park and of the twolane road east to Mulcaster Street and establishment of beach and swimming area in front of the Allandale station In statement released today Mr Archer says Barrie has waited long enough the way is now open for the ex tension of Centennial Park We must get on with the job Other cities spend millions of dollars to build central focal point for their city and end up with concrete jungle where people are of secondary importance Barrie is blessed with its location on the shores of beautiful clear body of water natural focal point and were not making the best use of it Mr Archer says that on any warm summer day hundreds of Barrie residents take to the lawns and beach of Centennial Park If this park were to be ex tended along the downtown waterfront at least to Mulcaster Street these people would be gathering in the heart of the city And wherever people regularly gather for leisure activities there results an atmosphere of belonging goodwill and friendlinessjust ROSS ARtIIIIR the attitulc that is so typical of Barrie and so essential to vital downtown core Mr Archer claims that during recent surney con ducted by his campaign com mittee more than one third of the persons qiteitioried listed the toy as fhi greatest thing Barrie has going for it and more than half suggested this asset wantt hciig to full advantage Kinzie suggests redrafting The high cost of housing in Barrie has come under fire from mayoralty candidate Willard Kinzie who wants to see the Restrictive Bylaw rcdrafted to be clearer sim pler forthrightly honest and legislatively stable believe that one of the key causes and major factors in rising land and housing prices here in Barrie has been caused inadvertently or otherwise by the increasing number of restrictions that have grown and multiplied through the years within the system that controls land development The shortage of housing land and building lots has led to an accelerating price spiral and was increased by speculation and by panic buying in many areas The increasing costs risks and delays make it vastly more difficult for smaller firms and independent builders to continue in the business of providing new homes says Mr Kinzie in fourpage statement today In Barrie says Mr Kinzie something absolutely must be done to bring down the cost of housing and wed better start at one of the main roots of the problemwred tape jungle of red bureaucratic tape that is making it almost impossible for home builders to back through The mayoralty candidate contends that in the process of creating building lots for house construction there is long winding road that produces delays and prevents houses from being built quickly From the day the developer initiates his first planning proposal long and arduous obstable cour se stretches ahead of him Mr Kinzie said the course may take three to 10 years to overcome Cited as example was the new District Six Secon dary Plan northwest of Barrie where according to Mr Kinzie it will have taken seven years to have lots released for 1977 spring building program FRANK
