"A Family Tradition for 126 Years" PET THO RE, AT HON (Lv sew Rea PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, November 3, 1992 - 5 Glenn Malcolm to seek Liberal seat By Scott Anderson Port Perry Star Buoyed by the success of his municipal campaign, Glenn Malcolm has thrown his hat into the federal political ring. Mr. Malcolm formally an- nounced his intention to seek the federal Liberal Party nomi- nation in the riding of Durham last week. He is the first nomi- nee to come forward. The announcement came as no surprise as Mr. Malcolm has been contemplating the move since being defeated in last fall's municipal election. The one- time ward councillor fell less than 100 votes short in his bid for mayor of Scugog. Mr. Malcolm says the deci- sion to run was made after his defeat. He says he had nointen- tion of running federally had he been elected mayor. "Fate deals us strange hands," he said. "The fact that I was available made it more at- tractive." Mr. Malcolm says the deci- sion came easy as he has been GLENN MALCOLM encouraged by a number of peo- ple to run for the vacant position since last fall's election. "Politicians can have a lot of dreams and goals over the years, but it's people that help put those into action," he said. Just as he offered a "change" Hilstone project could be saved It appears that Durham's re- gional administration building project still has a faint pulse. Given up for dead more than two weeks ago when the devel- opers pulled out, the project may not be dead after Hilstone Developments expressed inter- est in resuming talks with the region. The project, dubbed Hilstone, is a $65-million regional admin- istration building and office tower in downtown Oshawa. But the developers pulled out of the project two weeks ago af- ter being frustrated for months by the region's feet dragging over the issue. In a letter to Regional Chair- man Gary Herrema, Alan Brookes, a director at Hilstone outlined a number of reason be- hind the decision to kill the deal including the regional council's inability to come to an agree- ment on the project. But since receiving the letter, Chairman Herrema has met SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT JENKINS BUSINESS EQUIPMENT with Mr. Brookes and was "en- couraged" by the Friday meet- ing. Scugog Mayor Howard Hall says "the door hasn't been closed completely" and indicat- ed the matter was still open for discussion. Chairman Herrema will pro- vide an update to the mayors at ameeting scheduled for Novem- ber 4, Mayor Hall said.

He says people re- sponded positively to his ideas, and feels he'll get the same re- sponse again. "People need a choice in every election. People responded to my thinking on the issues and they liked having the choice," he said. One of his first goals is to re- pair a split that has occurred in the Durham Riding Party. The riding hasbeen divided by inter- est groups anditis his aim to re- unite the riding. "It's my goal to bring every Liberal member in the riding to- gether and face the issues unit- ed," he said. "I hate division and strife and turmoil. I like to get the issues to the front and work things out."

"As Canadians we have to ask ourselves are things under con- trol or is it time for a new man- agement with a party with new ideas," he says. Mr. Malcolm says the party has concerns about overtaxa- tion and are calling for a fairer tax system, which includes a flat tax scheme and simplified tax system. The party is also concerned about free trade and GATT, which particularly disturbs Mr. Malcolm. He says the country has based its whole economic fu- ture on one country trade, but what is needed is a more bal- anced economy with equalized wealth and income distribu- tion. "The party realizes the need for world trade, but 1 have a problem relying on one country for survival." Turning to local issues, Mr. Malcolm says the community has been hit hard by recent job losses. He says the three levels of government must work to- gether to develop a strategy to create jobs. But perhaps the greatest con- cern of the community at the present is the impending threat of a landfill site. Mr. Malcolm says, as leaders of the country, the federal government should take a more active role in the site selection process if they dis- agree with the choice of landfill sites. "By silence they are condon- ing the method," he says. "Now is the time to take an 1ssue on it." The candidate for the federal riding is expected to be chosen early next year.
