All LCBO outlets in the area were open Sundays last December too. Coun. Lin Stetfler said other stores are allowed to . open Sunday so why not liquor stores. She said the public seems to like shop- ping on Sundays since the practise was introduced. Correspondence from the county health unit was noted .tnd I i led.

The rest of council agreed with him. Meanwhile, Clinton Council continues to pursue the controversial lottery ter- minals for a proposed one - storey structure behind the grandstand at the Clinton Raceway. A council/raceway com- mittee reported to Clinton Council two weeks ago that their plans met with favour during a recent meeting with the video lottery imple- mentation team of the Ontario Video Lottery Corporation Ltd. The committee feels the possibility exists that Clinton could receive S150,000 per year from the Ontario government "sim- ply for hosting video lottery terminals." The province plans to introduce VLTs this August. Many municipalities. such as London. voted against the introduction of VLTs as a fundraiser in November's municipal elections. Critics says these video lottery terminals are the "crack cocaine of the gam- ing industry." and the social damage they can do offsets the hig bucks they generate.
