é -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, Janvary 7, 1986 § Wikis a wo FA Tt ia Frm id ™ EE gy : AER NE E J 2 Sweet success Talk about a sweet surprise. When the students of R.H. Cor- i -nish Public School managed to raise $13,000 in a recent chocolate bar sales campaign, they thought it only right to share the wealth with someone else. So they donated $250 to Handi-Transit, as presented by chocolate munching Bobbie Drew of the Parent Teacher Association and Roger McQuaid, 13, the school's top Editorial Comments (From page 4) : it a store owner wants to be open from midnight to 7:00 a.m., that should be his or her right. : Granted, employees who work in retail stores must be afforded some protection. It makes sense that an employee who doesn't want to work Sundays or Statutory holidays should not lose his or her job because of it. But there are plenty of people in Ontario looking for part time work who would love the chance to make some extra money by working willingly on these days. LL We find it unsettling that police officers are handing out hundreds of summons to store owners and managers just for being open when ~ they want to be open. It is just as unsettling that these hundreds of cases are going to clog an already bogged down legal system in On- tario, a system that is bogged down with the prosecution of real _criminals. : But mainly, we find it unsettling in this day and age that a piece of legislation can dictate whén a business person can open the doors of a store, and when the public can do its shopping. Obviously, there is a demand for stores to be open Sundays and holidays or the store owners and managers would not be doing it. It's time the legislation was changed to meet the already changed demands of the public in 1986. SEVEN MILE ISLAND RESORT FRIDAYS ........ eee 51 9 P.M. SATURDAYS... 12 to 9 P.M.
