the tribune wednesday march 31 wk s i- letter to the editor police action i criticized dear sir j i wish to complain about a constable in the york regional police i j the morning of march 13 1976 i was on the main street of stouffville and witnessed i police constable from car 134 give out two parking tickets and while doing so be himself broke the law three times the first time he parked in front of a driveway where he wrote out the ticket and left his car to put the ticket on the happening there was a car waiting to jxill out of the driveway onto main street the ridiculous part about this situation is that he could have backed ins car up a few feet so that he would not be blocking the driveway but doing so would have taken him out of full view of the licence plate of the car which was illegally parked thus causing the constable to get out of ins car walk across main street in order to write down the licence number n the second time the same constable spotted an illegally parked car on the comer of main and mill streets the con stable pulled onto mill street backed onto main street and parked just as illegally on the east corner of mill and main streets after the con stable had written out this ticket he pulled ahead blocking the mill street entrance onto main street got out of his car and put the ticket on the windshield of the parked car again as in the in cident cited above he was blocking a car trying to pull out onto main street you may feel this is not an important incident but i feel this constable was setting a very poor example to young people thinking of obtaining a drivers licence and also to the other drivers on the road it has been pointed out on many occasions by the downtown merchants of stouffville that the consumer in the district is not shopping in this area but going elsewhere well i can hardly blame them when there is so little parking space plus having police cruisers adding to the problem i realize the police are only doing their jobs when they ticket illegally parked cars but why cant these police constables be on foot instead of adding to the amount of traffic having police constables on foot would also put the police on a more personal basis with the civilian mary lou mcinxes rr 3 stouffville- traffic light irkg resident dear sir i am approaching my second anniversary as a stouffvilleite next month and for a growing town only 20 miles from the big apple stouffville might as well be located somewhere north of the arctic circle for the thought and research its- town council puts in to the town our town council is to me a set of traffic lights- placed in the middle of a husiness block with no purpose other than to let resyients and shoppers cross from one side of the street to another have you ever at tempted to drive off of a side street in stouffville on a saturday at noon hour with all the traffic pouring to and from the sales barn maybe 1 grew up in a too progressive city but any traffic lights i en countered there were just thattraffic lights utlilized to control traffic flow along busy streets and not people lights for crossing over streets i believe the residents of this town would be astounded to discover what their 85- 100 crosswalk cost to be replaced by our first set of traffic lights and with december elec tions coming maybe they should find out david simpson t tribune book

fortunate that richardson has recorded with wit and compassion a story the media chose to dismiss after a multi- million dollar settlement which in the eyes of many call the canadian way strangers devour the land by boyce richardson isa stunning portrayal of the battle between the james bay cree and development howard adams is a saskatchewan metis who has written a book that calls into question most of the myths surrounding the opening of the west and its historic corporation that j the developrrcnt no longer dream of premier robert can the cliche go west bourassa and his liberal government i the roles played by the government the judiciarythe politicians poneers and government the developers and even in western settlement young man roll off the tongue and not bring to mind the true role of our prison of grass is a relentless attack on the white man his laws his government his priorities and even his way of life what is most disturbing is that adams seems to hold little hope that a solution can be found within i the framework of our present society and he lays many of the native problems in the hands of liberal bureaucrats politicians and educators this book will riot rest well with most readers for it strikes close to the very pillar of our misconception and that is ominous the ssues adams raises demand immedidate attention the tragedy is that it is late in the day and v
