Opinion • Conservatives waffling on promise to kill gunregistry, says Joslin To the Editor, One of the main planks of the Conservative Party's election plat- form was a firm promise to kill the long gun registry created by the infamous Liberal bill, C-68. It was this plank particularly that garnered the Conservatives support in rural ridings. Yet in a recent edition of the Toronto Sun it was revealed that Steven Harper is waffling on his promise. His claim is that he may not be able to kill the registry because he has a minority govern- ment. This is not true. He could use Order -in -Council to axe the reg- istry. What we are hearing is the sound of a politician getting ready to break his word. Between waf- fling on the promise re: the reg- istry and the David Emerson affair, Harper and the Conservatives are acting more and more like Liberal • Lite. No doubt when the BQ reintro- duce C-407 (the euthanasia bill) Harper will do nothing (as hap- pened with C-250, the hate crimes bill) and whine that his minority status prevents him from stopping it. As the Toronto Sun so nicely put it, "Grit, Tory, :same old story" Dave Joslin Brussels, ON Readerimpressed by listening and leadership shown by John Tory To the Editor, I recently attended a meeting/breakfast in Blyth hosted by the Huron -Bruce PC Association. John Tory, leader of Ontario's Progressive Conservative Party chaired a roundtable session with local business and political leaders. As stated in a pre- vious press release by the Ontario PC Party, the pur- pose of this meeting was to discuss, "....the need for the province to develop an effective Rural Economic Strategy to help rural communities remain viable and relevant in the 21st century." I was impressed with the knowledgeable imput pro- vided to Mr. Tory at the meeting by Huron -Bruce municipal politicians, Huron Business Development Corporation board members and concerned residents. Huron -Bruce again has demonstrated that we lead the way in developing new ideas and solutions to problems. The key to this success is our ability to set our per- sonal/political differences aside to develop solutions to problems for the benefit of all. Mr. Tory demonstrated his exceptional ability to not only be a good listener but to provide leadership and direction for rural Ontario when we truly need it. I would like to thank/congratulate the Huron -Bruce PC Association for demonstrating real leadership in our community by hosting the meeting and providing residents of Huron -Bruce, no matter what their politi- cal affiliation (if any), an opportunity to collectively shape the future of our great riding. In the best interests of Huron -Bruce, I would encourage our current MP and MPP to follow the lead of Mr. Thry and the Huron -Bruce PC Association.
