Monday Feb. 15 Are you or someone you care about affected • s.ee more DATELINE on page 21 Day wants to serve at higher level •from HALTON on page 10 the new Greater Toronto Services Board on the municipalities in Halton has yet to be determined. Significantly, for the smaller municipalities the challenge will be to ensure that their uniqueness does not disappear and that their identity is main- tained." Mr. Day, a member of the regional and local environmental committees, said he will continue to push for policies and prac- lices that enhance and protect natural resources. Mr. Day also cited personal experience for seeking the nomination. His wife Gretchen is a high school department head and two daughters attend Georgetown High School. He said "the stresses in edu- cation have not been positive. "Similarly, the issues I faced in 1998 while sitting on the Long Term Care Committee of the Halton-Peel District Health Council became much more poignant as my family bas coped with aging parents, and their needs and difficul- ties in obtaining required care, emergency medical aid and chronic care in the area they live." Mr. Day said if he wins the nomination but not the provincial seat, "I come back with a much sharper focus on the region and local issues." He added he's not leaving the communi- ty at ail- just seeking to serve it at a dif- ferent level. "I think I can bring real added value for this region," said Mr. Day, who stressed his awareness of regional and local issues. He believes the Liberals have a good chance of winning the Halton riding. North Oakville resident Molian Anand announced earlier he is also seeking the Liberal nomination. Mr. Day said the date for the nomination meeting will likely be set sometime in February.
