Perrin Beatty got an ear- ful from almost everybody in the lounge last Tuesday as he paid an informal, non-political visit to the veterans. "It's about time the military were given the tools they need," Beatty said during a casual discus- sion with Legion executives. The defence minister visited Branch 80 after a day of political canvassing for his brother, George, who later lost his bid for a seat in the provincial elec- tion last Thursday. But the side trip to visit the vets was non-political. Perrin even took off his George Beatty button for the photograph taken by the Midland Times. Legion members responded positively to the reforms the minister has been implementing for the armed forces. One legion executive said Beatty was doing "a Ict better' at the job than his predecessors. The visit lasted approx- imately an hour, during which Beatty made a point of visiting every table in the lounge. "A lot of people think freedom is like a mortgage payment," the defence minister said. "It's not. It's a price you continually have to pay." $7.9 million job for Leitz Ernst Leitz Canada Limited of Midland has been awarded a $7.9 million Government of Canada contract to supply 203 aviator night vision im- aging systems and other equipment to the Canadian Forces.
