Dear Editor:
OPEN LETTER TO THE
PREMIER OF ONTARIO
We, the members of the Involved Parents
Group of .Gananoque, .Lansdowne and
District wish to oppose some of the recom-
mendations of the Ontario Advisory Com-
mittee on Liquor Regulation released
March 3, 1987 at Queens Park.
We too, would aim for "individual respon-
sibility and moderation in the consumption
of beverage alcohol". However, we believe
that liberalization of liquor laws, specifical-
ly, extension of hours for licenced premises,
patrons being allowed to bring their own
beverage alcohol to restuarants, 24-hour
room service and de -regulation of some
Special Occasion Permits IS NOT
. RESPONSIBLE. Our area in Eastern On-
tario spends its share of the estimated half
billion dollars cost of alcohol abuse in the
Health Care, Social Welfare, Law Enforce-
ment and reduced productivity problems;
The legislation to reduce the drinking age
from 21 to 18 to 19 a few years ago effective -
r resnsi
ile >r laws

ly put legal consumption of alcohol into the
high school age group. In that age group,
Peer Pressure dictates that if friends do it,
it's o.k..for me i age 19 is not.the measure).
This same student Peer Pressure is
resulting in alcohol consumption at the
public school age level.
Our Community is only one of many
which is suffering from the epidemic of
underage drinking. In October, 1985, we lost
three students in an alcohol related car
crash.
At. the Inquest of' these deaths, the Cor-
, oner's Jur'' recommended that the drinking
age be raised to 21 and that there be stricter
controls on the sale of alcohol. The Leeds &
Grenville Board of Education 1 November
25, 1985) passed three resolutions, 11 legal
drinking age be raised to age 21, 21 the sale
of beer and wine should not be permitted in
grocery stores, 3) Government review
lifestyle advertising of beer and wine.
In this Province now, millions of dollar
are spent in prevention programmes for
students and adults alike (VIP, SADD,
Al,:ohol and Drug education, etc.). Many
groups such as ours, have formed to find the
ways to protect our children and ourselves
from further pain and cost brought about by
alcohol.
We believe that liberalized liqour laws do
NOT "reflect the attitudes and expectations
of the public" as Mr. Offer believes they do.
We feel so committed to opposing
liberalization of liquor laws that we are also
sending this letter to 240 weekly newspapers
across Ontario. We will also address the
Gananoque Town Council with the hopes of
seeing a resolution sent to the Association of
Municipalities of Ontario.

Beware campaign for Humane, Society members
Dear Editor,
Ontario Residents Beware!
It has recently come to our attention that
the Toronto Humane Society has initiated a
campaign to solicit new members outside
the Toronto area. This campaign is targeted
at Ontario residents, some of whom have
never been active with Humane Societies
anywhere in the province. • -
Before surrendering to their appeal for•
money, local residents should be aware of
the facts. The Toronto Humane Society has
recently taken a new direction ... that of the
Animal Rights Movement. '
The radical movement began with the re-
cent election of Vicki Miller as president of
the society.. Miller, also founder and na-
tional co-ordinator of the activist group
ARK II, has been the cause of much con-
troversy within the Humane Society
Federation of the province.
Her unorthodox beliefs and tactics have
sprouted the recent. dramatic decline in
public support for the organization. This, I
would imagine, is what has precipitated her
.plea for support from unsuspecting
residents outside of the Toronto area.
However, it is presumptuous of Miller to ex-
pect our support for her society when our
local organizations are equally in need of
such funding.
• There isavast difference between animal
rights and animal. w,elfa're, The Ontario
Trappers Association supports and. en-
courages Humane Societies that operate on
an anin3al welfare basis and solidly believes
that they need our support.
Leadership, as Miller has displayed,is not
the standard for the respectable Humane
Societies of our province. I urge you - donate
rather to your local Humane Societies. Well
established, reputable local organizations
deserve your support and will do much more
to promote animal welfare on,your behalf.
Sincerely,
James J. Donnelly
General Manager
Ontario Trappers Association
Reader raps press for. casting stones
Dear Editor:
There has been a skunk discovered in the
electronic , media, across the border of
television evangelism. =
The ones who are playing the leading role
are Jimmy and Tammy Bakker. The details
of their misdemeanor will not be necessary
because Big Brother, the press, has discuss-
ed this upside doyen, inside out, and upside
over. I imagine there will be a, period of
quarantine to see that this disease doesn't
spread.
Apparently the only ones without sin are
the'Big Brothers. Should the local clergy,in-
vite them in to preach a sermon. this ,S in -
day, or.take charge of their homily? Maybe,
they might be more just than the 'clergy. I
would not attempt such an effort, because 1
am not in this category. I notice -the press
doesn't over -publicize or make an issue of
• the times they are sued for libel. Maybe the
evangelists should engage a group to watch
Big Brother and publicize the times they are
sued for libel. They have the media to do it.
Sometimes it is necessary to fight fire
. with fire, as tiny forest ranger knows. Their
profession is not 'exempt from criticism.
Sincerely,
N.J. Minaker
