Savings can ebst..
An extra million Canadians figure they saved Motley in
December- by travelling across the border to the US to do
Christy -luta *hopping, When all the costs am added up,
however, one wonders If the Savings* the shoppers thought
they made hi the -US border cftlet May have Coat them more
In the long run. ,
Statistics Canada figures released recently show 5.5 Million
Canadians crossed the border for otte-day trips in December,
• up 24 per cent, or one million people from a -year earlier. Out
there probably were 6,000 Ontarlans who won't be shopping
across the border any more. Ontarlans spent at least $600
million shopping in the US last year. The Ontario government
estimates that cost 6,000 jobs in Ontario.
That's 6,000 people to be on unemployment, maybe
eventually on welfare, driving -takes even higher in Ontario.
With money -not spent on.provinelalsalea taxes on that 41600
Million in goods bought In the US, well. either have to. do
without thittgs we expect as part of our lifestyle, like fine
hospitals -and schOols, or our taxes will have 40 Incrust* In
other areas. On the beat scene, hoMiehokilaxes will have to
increase if local retailers and factories 90 bankrupt 'because
of the loss of the business across the border. •-.•• , -
But croiwborder shoppers don't bother their WOW
such things. Many of them are secure In gOod jobsoriSny
oven on government payrolls, living off the very taxes they
complain they have to shop outside the country to avoid.
With visionsof tremendous bargains, In 'their minds" on
electronic gadgets, clothing and food products, they'r�.
willing to pay extra In travel coots, not to mentiortextra travail
time, and hang the consequences. Of Course- they will want
the local *lief to boaround when they need -food tsnd,
clothing and electronic gadgets, but don't have the time for
ashopping somaril-the US. Probably Ole local stores won't
be if the current trend continues.
There is a cost to be paid by trying to haven both .ways;'
have the cheaper taxes of *the US while haVing things like.
OHIP and other goodies taxes buy in Ontario. People can got
away with It for a while, but eventual May pay a high
cost indeed, for the few dollars each shopper Saves. (Keith

This position I bave-held doom
for the past two plus years, is
beginning to show on whims
afeas of the old body. Position
refers to different things - firstly
my job as e4itor, and secondly the
act of sitting on my derriere day
in and day out. While the job may
be conducive to exavising the
brain and fingers, it does not lend
itself to getting a heck of lot of
exei'cise.
Exercising what is between my
ears has lead to my 'nth' turning
