Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, September 9, 1987, page 3 Mannila in town without Conway to canvass continued from page 1 Control Order Much on the minds of every citizen of Terrace Bay, Schreiber and Rossport has been the pollu- tion control order, which almost caused the option of closing the Kimberly-Clark operations in Terrace Bay and vicinity to be considered. Manilla spoke about Premier Peterson's new funding initiative which will allow paper mills to borrow money from-the provin- cial government to upgrade pollu- tion control measures. Peterson announced this cam- paign promise last Friday in Thunder Bay. Manilla was firm about the idea of government-controlled auto insurance, as suggested by the NDP. He claimed that provinces which already have implemented auto insurance also have "enor- 'mous deficits in the area of $100 million." Manilla reminds constituents that these losses may not be cov- ered in premiums but may be recovered by increased taxes. The solution for the high price of auto insurance premiums is by "intervention into the industry...where the consumer gets a fair and equitable deal...within a free enterprise sys- tem." Manilla also declares that the Progressive Conservative promise for lower gas prices in the North is empty. -He reports that the PCs had 42 years of government to imple- ment this before. Why would they start now, he said. The Provincial election will be held on Thursday, September 10, 1987. Gilles Pouliot, the incumbent, is the NDP candidate for Lake NIpigon and Vic Fournel is the PC candidate for the riding. Following a week of flying in the Northern regions, the Mannila campaign trail lead to many iso- lated communities.

His arrival in English River, Savant Lake and Osnaburgh House proved to be one of tremendous support and the reception there was phenome- nal.

While in Gull Bay, Mannila was given the red carpet treat- ment. Beardmore The tour also took Mannila to Beardmore, Orient Bay and Rocky Bay reserve- from there it was off to Jellicoe and the regis- tration of nominaticn papers.
