Timmins needs many addiâ€" tions and extensions to its public serâ€" vices and until these are provided, the Government should see to it that the money from the great ‘*resource‘‘ of Timimns is left in Timmins to help in providing health and safety for the least until the town ‘has public services provided valid reason why the should take the greate rovalties and #ive no ret people here.
