We're all in this
together.
On October 21st, more than four million Ontario citizens will select,
from among themselves,117,pcople to represent them. And, at the same
time, they will select one man as their Premier.
Bill Davis has said to the people of Ontario: "You have no need
to judge us on our promises. We are asking you to support us for our
performance...fl r the decisions we have made, for the policies we have
introduced, for the more than 130 items of legislation we have imple-
mented:'
Consider that record.
The establishment of a Department okthe Environment, and assis-
tance to firms investing in pollution control equipment. The banning
of logging in Quetico and Kiilarncy Provincial Parks. Summer employ-
ment for students in clean-up operations (Project SWEEP). The Endan-
gered Species Act. A tougher line with corporate polluters. With clear
decisions and vigorous action like this, Ontario can breathe a little easier.
The Davis government's decision to halt the Spadina Expressway.
coupled with a pledge to provide greatly expanded assistance to mass
public transit. has brought us closer to a rational solution of our trans-
portation problems.
The Provincial conference on economic and cultural nationalism
reflects and also contributes to an expanding awareness of the potential
of our country and our people.
Davis decisions have helped the Canadian publishing industry:
special provisions have been written into Ontario Development Cor-
poration loans to encourage Canadian effort, to preserve and enhance
what is distinctive about our society.
And there have been a great many other Davis government deci-
sions...good decisions: No-fault car insurance. The task force for off-
track betting. Expanded grants to day-care centres. Detoxification
centres. Expanded housing on a rent -geared -to -income basis. Free
medicare for the needy. and for people 65 and over. And lowering
the age of majority.
Which brings us hack to our decision. at the ballot box.
For democracy to succeed, it's not enough to talk about change.
Change must he made to happen. That's why Bill Davis is doing things.
And doing things—for people ---is surely what leadership is all about.
In his first seven months as Premier, Bill Davis has demonstrated
the kind of leadership and government Ontario needs. With your sup-
port on October 2Ist, he will continue.
He can do much more.
