Ernie Duncan has applied for a refreshment vehicle li- cence to operate the fish and chip truck on the east side of Highway 12, just south of Brook Street. While the land is properly zoned for the refreshment vehi- cle, councillor Yvonne Christie said last week she has serious concerns about vehicles enter- ing and exiting from the busy highway. Council wants the Ministry of Transportation to take a look at the application. And there were also con- cerns expressecC by council over the fact that Manchester al- ready has two permanent res- taurants. Vehicles selling food must Meech failure does not signal end of Canada To the Editor: The fact that the Meech exer- cise has failed should in no way be interpreted as the end of Canada. The possibility of a Canada minus Quebec - yes. But also the possiblity of an even. greater Canada minus constant disent of one member. The now exposed dishonest and shameful manipulations of our so- called prime minister, border on the criminal considering the issues importance. Of closer to home importance, is the now also exposed naivety of our M.P. Stevenson in choosing to follow party line.

Long live Premier Clyde Wells and Elijah Harper. In the final assault, one lone native Canadian saved English-speaking Canada from the onslaught of Quebec domina- tion of the rest of Canada. If only one lesson has been learned it is that 11 men can no longer sign an agreement affec- ting 26 million people in the mid- dle of the night. No more back room deals, to appease Quebec. Numerous constitutional ex- perts claimed it was flawed from the beginning and far too am- biguous. The Supreme Court of Canada would be bogged down for years trying to interpret it. Lac Meech was the most in- famous con job ever perpetrated on the Canadian people. The constitutional matters were all settled and signed in 1971 at the Victoria conference. Bourassa signed it and after pressure from the St. Jean Baptiste Society, scuttled it. In 1982 when Queen Elizabeth signed the constitution, three of the four signators were French- Canadians. Quebec for a second time refused to sign. A campaign was started to blame English Canada for not accepting Quebec. Divide and Conquor. It didn't work thanks to Premier Wells and Elijah Harper. "Neville" Peterson sold out On- tario and the rest of Canada, aid- ed by a non-elected Senator Lowell Murray. Who empowered Peterson to give away 6 senate seats? Not the voters! Maybe Peterson will get the message that the people of Ontario do not want official bilingualism forced on them. Insensitive, arrogant leaders in this country, especially majority governments must be told we've had enough. Dean J.
