County of Huron. 1987 Scale I 100 inion rou aims for res 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 age effective- onsi ile uor laws LETTERS lairmassaaaiii 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 ( age 29 is not the measure ). This same student Peer Pressure is resulting in alcohol consumption at the public school age level. Our Community is only une 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 C'or- oner's Jury reconunended 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 ( November 25, 1985) passed three resolutions, 1 legal drinking age be raised to age 21, 2) 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 dollars are spent in prevention programmes for students and adults alike (VIP, SADD, t l,:ohpl 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. Terry Tucker President' 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 whore have never been active with Humane Societies anywhere in the province. Before surrendering to their appeal for money, lodal 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 world imagine, is what has precipitated her plea tor 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 is a vast difference between animal rights and animal welfare. • The 'Ontario Trappers Association supports and en-• courag.es Humane Societies that operate on ' an animal welfare basis and solidly believes that they need our support. Leadershi'p, as Miller has displayed, is not the standard for the respectable Humane Societies of our province. I urge your 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 Jimrriy and •Tammy Bakker, The details of their misdemeanor will not be necessary because.Big'Broth'er, the press, has discuss- . •ed this upside down, 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 Sun- day, or take charge of their homily? Maybe,. they might be 'morejust than the clergy. I would not attempt such an effort, because I - 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 Aroup 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 any forest ranger knows. Their profession is not exempt from criticism. "Sincerely,, N.J.
