tribune on issues of a local and sometimes con troversial nature the opinions expressed are those of the writer and not necessarily of this newspaper replies in agreement or opposition are welcome during the early 1970s i had the plea sure of teaching at sir oliver movat col legiate in west hill i say pleasure be cause with a staff of 53 teachers whose in terests ranged from playing sports to play ing the tuba there was a comfortable re spect of each of our differences and an acceptance of everyone as an important member of the staff we had a group who liked to play pool at lunch break and twenty of us invested in a fullsized pool table for this purpose some met every friday night to go drinking at the penthouse motel in highland creek while others preferred to go home there was never an attempt to exclude anyone from joining nor was there any suggestion that not joining made one any less important sometimes i reflect on the three years i taught at mowat and mar vel at the harmony that prevailed among a group with so many diversified interests a community is not unlike what i have just described we have people who have the free time and inclination to join one of our many clubs some would rather spend their free time involved in a church with all its activities others are not able to join group as structured as a service club or congregation due to age health or finan cial reasons a club is voluntary and mem bership dues are not protection money from being labelled unworthy of indi vidual merit it is very unwise for anyone to suggest that meaningful contributions to a community only come from service clubs or committees its healthy thing to gather together in small or large groups with people of like interests it is unhealty to label those wo choose other groups or interests as candi dates for running out of town at high noon a community is strong because of its di versity a club is strong because of its sameness it takes many clubs to make a community not visa versa a club which tries to impose itself on others who ha ve no interest in becoming members is called a clique it is at this point that organiza tion becomes dangerous it is my belief that uxbridge is still a community we still respect freedom of speech and varied opinions weare not all clones here some of us shave every morn ing our community is thankful for people who come here only to shop at our stores work at our places of employment and eat at our restaurants its good that many people employed in uxbridge live in sunderland or newmar ket its also good that many people who reside here work in toronto its great to have service clubs but its also great to have people who donate to service clubs making our community a club will ster ilize this fine town one of my cousins was a fine mayor of uxbridge and another was a councillor here the person who has just moved here from korea holland or toron to isnt in my club but he or she is cer tainly welcome to my community may it never be any different goligers travel service has found the markham economist sun to be the most highly effective medium in which to advertise its very well received and we can always count on re sults jo demasson president goligers 54 wellington st w markham seeks york north pc nomination york north george timpson 38 has declared himself a candidate for the progressive conservative nomination in the provincial riding of york north timpsons qualifications are that he served four years as an aurora councillor 19731976 before serving six years as mayor of aurora 19771982 he sees his entry into provincial politics as a natural progression of his political career incumbent mpp bill hodgson has done a good job says timpson timpson wants the opportunity to serve the people of york north and improve on that standard timpson recognizes that he has an uphill fight since the incumbent has represented the riding since 1967 however he adds the time for change has come because york north riding has become increasing ly urbanized in the last 17 years the for mer mayor regards his record in municip al politics as having been very successful and he feels that he has a good understand ing of the grass roots level of government timpson is critical of the timing of the nomination for three reasons first the first public notice of the nomination meet ing was a news item published just prior to the july 1st holiday weekend the meeting itself is scheduled for july 18 a time when people are away on vacation or are plan ning their holidays second the report of the electoral auction sale boundaries commission is pending and york north riding is certainly one of those which will be changed by that report the report can likely be implemented by the spring of 1985 and if the election is after that date another round of nomination meetings would be necessary in the newly formed ridings third there is no rush to hold a nomina tion timpsons political senses tell him that bill davis is not likely to call an elec tion this summer or this fall the pope is coming and the likelihood of a federal elec tion winter elections are usually held only when absolutely necessary thus timpson feels the next election will be in the spring of 85 orpossibly later the present man date expires in 1986 1 canadian radiotelevision and telecommunications commission conseil de la radlodinuslon et
