Home My WebLink AboutThe Huron Expositor, 1996-05-22, Page 11Elston declines leadership run Former area MPP Murray Elston has announced he won't take a run at the lead- ership of the Liberal party later this year. A former health minister and chairman of the manage- ment board of cabinet, Elston, 46, retired as MPP for Bruce in 1994 after 13 years in provincial politics. He was nosed out by Lyn McLeou at the Ontario Liberal's last leadership convention. "I'm content 1 had a chance to consider the leadership," Elston said when he announced he won't run. "I am intrigued by politics. It does get into a person's blood. I enjoyed it, but at the end of the day, I'd sooner" go with my private life."

The Goderich OPP is inves- tigating. Charges are pend- ing. The Seaforth Fire Department was called to the scene for extraction. But William Thomas Hubbard had already been removed from his vehicle when firemen arrived. The fire department assisted OPP with traffic control. After OPP were finished measuring and photographing at the scene, Seaforth firemen assisted with the clean-up. The county works department used sand and an absorbent material to soak up the spillage of eggs on the road the transport truck was carry- ing. The transport truck was eventually flipped upright by Sturdy's Towing, of London. The clean-up wasn't com- plete until approximately 9 p.m. Monday. Was jury of 12 loaded like Beretta?

That's easy - the 0.3. jury's on tour in Canada. Hcy, I'm kidding. The O.J. jury won't tour until all their contractual obligations to publishers and network television news magazines are lucratively ful- filled. So how could this happen, you ask? Well, the judicial system in Canada is complete and somewhat quirky. Money helps and loopholes loom large, butessentially you need four ingredients to bake a cake -walk, successful defence. You need a lawyer that's sharp as a tack, a jury that's dumb as a stump and a judge whose directions are so had he never pays for a Domino's pizza, because they can't find his house in Tess than thirty minutes. . Throw in an expert witness, usually a psychiatrist or -psy- chologist who doesn't mind being a prostitute for a day, as long as the client -pays cash and bingo! - you're free and clear the Canadian way.

The vote passed 153 to 76, after advancing 178 to 53 after second reading of the amendment the week before. Steckle voted "no" both times. The new legislation is designed to protect homosex- uals from discrimination in federally regulated work places and businesses. Pay for policing "The need for all munici- palities to pay for their polic- ing costs," is a theme thc Ontario Association of Police Service Boards plans to press with Solicitor General in a June summit. More than 2(X) delegates at the 34th annual meeting of thc province's police hoards in Toronto May 3 to 5 also adopted resolutions to: allow for their employment and training of part-time police officers in smaller municipal- ities; require car manufactur- ers to install anti -theft devices in new vehicles; and urge the federal justice minis- ter to revise the young offenders act so that their names can be released, on the second arrest after a first con- viction, to the public.

But he had in the past complained thatthe time .it took to unload the leachate had increased since .a filter was put in the line to the holding tank. One board member said that in the event of -an envi- ronmental spill, the money the board spent on these changes would well offset the cost of a possible lawsuit. "This board asked Conestoga -Rovers for direc- tion on these problems. They told us this was illegal (the way the truck was unloading leachate). We have to unload over a spill pad," said hoard . member Ken - Hunter, Commissioner of Works for Goderich. He said the building Owners would say "forget it" if they hadto pay $2;000 for a P trap. He said the Knights of Columbus have been "won- derful" considering the situa- tion. Come Bag The Bargains with our ANNIVERSARY SALE Friday May 24 10 a.m. - 9 p.m. 25°hbooff.Storewde
