The court gave Braesyde 30 days within which to bring its case to the court a second time. In early October, an Ontario Supreme Court justice agreed with the argument of the village's legal representative that not all of the parties who should be represented in Braesyde'e action were represented. Curtain up in Ottawa Canada's 33rd Parliament opened officially on Monday with Governor-General Jeanne Sauve reading the Throne Speech. A total of 282 MPs, including 143 rookies, listened to the Progressive Conser- vative Government's list of priorities and goals. The cast of characters include Bev isain Mulroney's' 211-seat majority government, John Turner's 40- member Liberal caucus and Ed Broadbent's 30- member NDP caucus. Reducing federal deficit is goal Reducing the federal deficit is Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's (Tory) government's number one priority. That was the message during Monday's throne speech in Ottawa which opened the first session of the 33rd Parliament. How this will be done will be made clearer tomorrow when Finance Minister Michael Wilson unveils how the Tories' 21l-seat majority government plans to chip away at lowering the deficit and curbing government spending. 4 OFF MIKES BOOKSTORE "WE BUY AND SELL" 303 King St., Midland WE BUY BOOKS in good condition Large selection of discount children's & Cookbooks ; 2 PRICE OR LESS ENJOYABLE READING AT AFFORDABLE PRICES r=S.

You get one amount of insurance - for your home, your personal property, and additional Most policies restrict the amount of insurance available by using one limit for your home and separate limits for your personal property, detached buildings and additional expenses. Because a loss settlement cannot exceed the limit, insurance could be inadequate. Under your single limit policy, the large total amount of insurance is available for loss on any item - giving you better protection. Check your policy.

In the coming months, I hope to have some ideas of measures which would ensure a greater degree of protection to them. Accordingly; I recently outlined two initiatives which are being un- dertaken. Ontario's Chief Coroner, Ross Bennett will be conducting an inquest into the deaths of Constable David Dunmore' and_ the person who shot him. The inquest will focus on the availability of weapons and the issue of video violence> I am particularly concerned about the effects of these two issues. Secondly, the Com- mittee of Police Officers and Civilians will be reviewing police pur- suits. To date, Vice-~ Chairman of the Ontario Police Commission and former Solicitor General John MacBeth Penetangu ishene, Ont Safety of police officers 7s extremely important' has agreed to be the chairman of the com- mittee. In addition, a number of interested citizens have ap- proached me offering to help us in this task. The committee will be examining a number of specific ~police procedures. These will include stopping a car at the conclusion of a pursuit or procedures followed by police of- ficers in the varied circumstances where the police must take action to pull a car over. In a related matter, my colleague, Attorney General, Roy McMurtry has proposed to the federal Minister of Justice that a federal- provincial task force be established to look into and report on the problems of violent crime in Canada. The task force would be small in size and represent both the federal and provincial governments. Fur- thermore, it would focus on the concerns of our citizens with a practical application. Early parole, the adequacy of our laws, the dangerous offender, capital punishment and procedures to protect us against violence would all be possible subjects for discussion. A federal-provincial task force would allow in- dividuals and groups to make their concerns known and to propose solutions. Here in Ontario, we have one of the finest justice systems in the world. Our police of- ficers have. a_ high degree of support, confidence and trust from the citizens of this province. To meet the changing times and to stay on top, constant evaluation and study is necessary. This is exactly what we will be doing in the coming months. NEED REPAIRS TO YOUR.
