Sanctuary Responds to Criticism Dear Sir!Madam: Re: Your Saturday, September 18th/93 issue Under Banner "Help Offered to re-locate Exotic Sanctuary Animals" I write to you at this time to thank you for your apparent unbiased reporting reporting of circumstances thus far regarding regarding the endangered animal sanctuary. sanctuary. I also write to draw to your attention a few inaccuracies. First, neither the Clarington Council Council nor the Bowmanville Zoo have approached this organization regarding regarding taking animals from this sanctuary. sanctuary. The Clarington Council docs not own, nor have possession of the sanctuary sanctuary animals, nor will they ever own or have possession of these animals. Therefore, Mr. Hackcnbcrger's offer is somewhat offhand. Second, it is of interest to note that Cazpa has accredited four zoos in the past, with Bowmanville being accredited at the end of September. Has no one thought to ask just who or what Cazpa is? It is a private organization, organization, having npthing to do with any level of government, municipal, provincial or federal. A look behind the scenes would show certain connections connections between other groups that spoke against us at council. It is also of importance to note that two of the "Zoo's" which appeared against the sanctuary arc either members of Cazpa Cazpa (Orono Cat World) or will be shortly (Bowmanville). The endangered animal sanctuary has been accused of entering Clarington Clarington through the back door. It is rather apparent to us that certain zoos are using a back door approach, not to mention council, in acquiring animals, animals, free of charge, to supplement their "Pay For View" business operations. operations. Let us not forget the three month search period and "then humane euthanasia euthanasia will be considered the appropriate appropriate recourse." May we enquire as to whom this course is appropriate? The animals? The Endangered Ani mal Sanctuary? The very existence of the sanctuary since 1969 is to save these animals' lives! It is quite apparent apparent that if ever any of these animals fell into the council's hands or that of private business zoos, their survival (non) has already been determined. It is to this end that the Sanctuary will fight the council through the OMB process, the Supreme Court of Ontario, Ontario, and the Supreme Court of Canada Canada if necessary. Of course, Mr. Hack- enberger supports council. If they were ever successful, they have no place for them, although it would appear appear at times that the goings on at council meetings would indicate they already have their own little zoo! We have never indicated we were connected with St. Francis Parish in Newcastle, nor have we indicated we were part of the Roman Catholic Church. In fact, this is made clear in our literature. We clearly state we are part of the Old Roman Catholic Church, and our church broke from Rome in 1702. (As the church of England did in the 16th century). We would appreciate our church's proper affiliation being published in the future future when it is mentioned. Gcrsh Sone apparently stated in you article that the move from East Gwillcimbury was not done in haste, as I would apparently have people believe. That is a matter of interpretation, interpretation, against this organization. Sone also indicates that one of the pieces of information given to the GP & A Committee members was that the monks with the church have taught courses in different courses throughout Metro. I did not circulate, nor have I ever stated any such thing. Castle Frank High School no longer exists as such (it is now an Adult Training Centre) and any mention of Castle Frank in our Literature was in Mr. Vallicres list of citations (having received one from the then "Castle Frank High School". Mr. or Mrs. Sone did the same thing at council on September 7th., alluding to our claim of "accreditation" by Seneca College. After being clarified by both our le- Come out for the fun ... have a meal or a snack.

Mr. Sone questions the presence of donation boxes in the bam (one only, not that it matters) and the guest sign in book. I explained both of these non-issues at council. We maintain a sign in book for our members members and guests, and if a member wishes to leave a donation, that is their business, not Mr. Sone's. They alluded we maintain these because we are open to the public. Mr. Sone once again appears to be a master of innuendo, and twisting real facts into any mold he wishes them to fit into. Mr. Sone also mentions a putrid smell that drove his family into his house one day, and the smell was from a fire. The paper doesn't mention mention the source of the fire, but the next paragraph indicates it was from "urine soaked sawdust being burnt." We do not use sawdust in our operation, operation, for one thing, and any burning on our property has been simply brush cleared from the grounds. The remarks concerning the property not being fenced arc totally untmc, as your reporters have been here and know otherwise. As far as having standoff protection, this was explained explained as being in the process of being being done. Now the residents have labelled us as being disrespectful of their rights as human beings? The residents residents do not even know us! Rights? Herewith a list of rights violated by locals since September 7th/93: 1. Mail Box destroyed (we replaced it) 2. Mail Box then stolen 3. Fence cut 4. Fire Dept, sent on a complaint call on a Sunday 5. Police Dept, sent on a complaint call at 11 p.m. at night regarding regarding an "Escaped" lion (public mischief call), and the list goes on. These are not just infractions of our rights, but criminal activity and will be dealt with as same if the perpetrators perpetrators are apprehended. In closing, may I quote an article appearing in the same issue on page 7, under the heading "Clarington to name itself SRI Chinmoy Peace Town"..."As a town dedicated to peace, Newcastle (Now the municipality municipality of Clarington) will serve as an inspiration for and a reminder of humanity's humanity's commitment to peace on earth through a spirit of brotherhood and oneness." Sounds really nice. I can loan a copy of Webster's standard dictionary dictionary to council and the Sones if they do not have one. The word they need to look up is "Hypocrisy".
