He said he wants to have the Martin Grove â€" Westway bus conâ€" tinue its routes into Thistletown and back through Rexdale‘s inâ€" dustrial area, to give Thistleâ€" town‘s residents a tieup with the northâ€"south Kipling route. Parts of the Rexdale industrial community will also be continâ€" ued to be cut off from bus serâ€" vice, since they are out of the line of the four area bus routes. Thistletown residents can still only go from the area into North York or Weston unless they can reach the Rexdale shopping disâ€" trict. to Weston by one change. Residents of Thistletown, howâ€" ever, are still "stuck", said Counâ€" cillor Purvis, since no bus will run into the northern sections of the Township. The Student Council need more texts to sell, and profit from the sale will be used through the Student Activities Fund, to asâ€" sist with charitanle donations during the school year. Books for sale should be in good condition, and officials adâ€" vise that those priced reasonably should sell quickly.
