8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday. October 20, 1987 ONE WOMAN'S VIEW by Chris Carlisle (From page 6) get the job specs. You contract to do the duties in return for dollars. You have an agreement. What happens if some guy on a car assembly line decides he doesn't like a particular model--suppose his wife died in an accident with a car of that model--so on that model he refuses to do his job which is putting a crucial nut or bolt in a crucial spot like the brakes or steering departments? There's a certain amount of trust involved in any job--trust by the employer in the employee to do his job. Police are trusted by their bosses--the public---to protect each and every one of us. Even the vilest criminal has rights to protection under our system. Until the system is changed, that policeman bet- ter forget his conscience and get to work. a a TE a mT Ha . YY Mm Viewpoint by John B. McClelland (From page 5) inferiority complex and gets out from under that shadow" 1 think it's a damn fortunate accident that Canada has the United States as its closest neighbour. We could have done a lot worse over the years. Just ask the Poles or the French who have lived side-by-side with the Germans for centuries, and have paid heavily for it. The nearly 300 million people who share the North American continent have a lot going for them: resources, industry, huge tracts of the best farmland anywhere in the world, expertise, "managerial skills, transportation systems, stable democratic government, the ability to communicate, and possibly most im- portant of all, the people of Canada and the United States have not been openly hostile, aside from one minor skirmish way back in 1812. No other two neighbours anywhere in the world can make the same claims. 4 I'm not suggesting for one minute that we in Canada simp- | ly fold up the country and turn it over lock, stock and barrel to the White House. But I am saying this. If we have to have closer ties with anybody, I'll take the Yanks any old day of the week. | Chatterbox by Cathy Olliffe (From page 4) equally among the Tenderbuns who show up for lessons. So it 10 people attend, the lesson will cost $2.40, plus $2 each tor ice time. So give me a call if you're interested (985-7383). And dont worry about anyone laughing, because believe me, everyone will be in the same boat. After all, there's a perfectly good reason why we chose "Tenderbuns' for our nickname. b puted be hia oan SIRES AEE A A (1 ie a Dei IEE AMES rasan Stn AE Pa a | 0 TE ee in etd Sle EE S| LE Catia ALLY LIMITED country Lane Hwy 7A & High Street, Port Perry, Ontario "If you're dog tired at night, it may be because you growled all day." } Annual Rates 1 YEAR 10 3/8 % 1 YEAR 978% 2 YEARS ........101/2% | 2 YEARS .. 10 % 3 YEARS ..... 10 3/4% | 3 YEARS 10 1/4% 4 YEARS .. 11 % | 4 YEARS . 10 112% 5 YEARS | 10 3/4% 11 1/4% | 5 YEARS .
