airport public hearing a flimflam of worst kind stephen roman york north stephen b roman progressive con servative candidate for york north labelled as garbage the federal govern ments announcement of a probe of its plan for a second toronto international airport at pickering there is no question in my mind that the government will do as it pleases regardless of the findings of its in dependent public inquiry this is aim flam of the worst kind the decision has been made land has been acquired the disruption has taken place the govern ment i predict will go through with this project but first it will put on the face of public concern go through the charade of consultation with the people he said the key to this bamboozle is that transport minister donald jamieson says the inquiry will not have power to stop the airport for that matter i believe neither will public opinion only a change of government can do that 1 predict the findings of this exercise will not be made known until after the next election and from the governments point of view hopefully too late to affect punishment at the polls as a businessman i know that millions of dollars have already been spent on this proposal and believe the government committed to its plan setting up a public inquiry on the basic juestion of whether the second airport is necessary is just a cynical technique of heading off public frustration and directing it into limbo what is required is an undertaking by the government that it will do nothing until the findings of this inquiry are made known to the people and that it will
