hed prefer a financial portfolio of some type he was a vicepresident of guaranty trust until he won don valley east for the tories in 1984 well have to be a little patient on that he said ndp candidate susan krone and independent john gamble drop ped in on the tory celebration to concede defeat we both ran a good campaign except towards the end com mented mrs krone her reference was to a rash of thefts of cam paign signs anderson later said the conservatives had also lost bet ween 2000 and 3000 worth of signs and poles this wasnt the only campaign controversy however attewell

a short vacation before parliament resumes in december conservative riding association president hugh mackenzie said much of the credit for the canadawide sweep should go to senator norm atkins of markham the national campaign chairman the turnaround after the debate was a phenomenon he said to turn it back was an astounding feat we were derailed a bit after the debate attewell agreed but the people of markham were not about to be fooled by the fear- mongering theres a lot of business here this is the silicon valley of the north and they know the benefits of free trade attewell wasnt able to convince everyone of that even at the end many seniors didnt believe us on pensions there were a good lot of seniors i couldnt reach k much of the undecided vote also had doubts over theagreement at tewell said the undecided hadnt made up its mind on free trade but our record gave them another reason to vote for us voters had a more practical reason to vote tory anderson said this wasnt enough to convince the largely immigrant population of milliken mills who voted liberal we expected to be soft down there campaign chairman george yates said anderson said the conservative party did no scientific polling when someone from party headquarters finally turned up at the end of the campaign the visitor said sorry 1 havent been around but we figured if we lose markham we lose ontario i dont think we ever considered that wed lose nielsen said we always knew wed win v this may explain why campaign manager tom merrick spent the last days of the campaign in florida i think he had the
