your Onini We asked our readers how they felt about the transportation of hazardous Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, April 24, 1985, page 3 goods through our area, by highway and railroads. Rose Garriock I think the situation in Kenora and Freda Boucher "I'd like to know the precautions Mary-Jo Fisher I don't feel safe with these chemicals Dan Hnatuk I don't think the highways or area is an awful thing. These'trucks and cargo must be labelled properly. There should be extra precautions taken in populated areas. taken to transport these dangerous chemicals. I know it has to be done, just how I don't know. The chemicals and trucks or railway cars must be marked properly, to minimize the dangers to the environment. Police Report Two thefts. over $200 were reported to police in the past two weeks; one theft of an ATC was resolved after the vehicle was found several hours later in a ditch. Another theft of wood is still under investigation. Police responded to a call to assist in a Landlord- Tenant dispute and all was settled with no mishaps. After attending to a call for assistance from the Hospital, police removed two suspicious persons from the premises. A records check showed one subject as Wanted in Thunder Bay and Police had him transported to the City where the Arrest War- rant would be executed. Constables attended a fight in the Red Dog park- ing lot which resulted in one local male being bar- red from the premises. As a result of a com- plaint received by Police a person who was injured and required assistance was transported to the hospital for treatment. One hit and run motor vehicle accident was in- vestigated by Police. No charges laid to date. A constable on checking a vehicle passing through the Township, learned it was a stolen auto. Occur- rence settled without charges being laid at the re- quest of the complainant. Several tickets were laid under the Highway Traffic Act,- also for parking violations. One break and enter in- to a private residence was reported to police and is still under investigation. Correction On the 17th of April we at the NEWS made a mistake. We would like to apologize to Kodila's Home Hardware and to all the people who went out for the big sale which is not to. run until May Ist through to May 4th. Please accept our apologies. Transportation co-ordinator to A second transportation co-ordinator will be assign- ed to counsel northern On- tario businesses on goods distribution methods, Transportation and Com- munications Minister George McCague said today. Based in Thunder Bay, the new officer will be able to draw on the support of MTC's Goods Distribution Systems Office to provide practical advice on the ef- fective movement of raw materials and finished products. The decision to expand the program to nor- thwestern Ontario was bas- ed on the success of MTC's first northern co-ordinator, W. Howe Wilcox, who set up an office in Timmins last August. "We have received a great deal of positive feed- back for our efforts at pro- viding tangible assistance to small business," coming through Terrace Bay. I think there should be more pull-ins off the highway and inspection stations should be open 24 hours a day. possible. locate in Thunder Bay McCague said. "Not only has Wilcox been invaluable when it comes to solving specific problems ... he has given us first-hand insight into the goods transporta- tion enviroriment in Nor- thern Ontario."' Since its establishment seven months ago, the Timmins office has been contacted by a large 'We must take charge of forestry' says Pouliot Saying that it was time to put an end to too many years of empty promises from the Conservative government, NDP can- didate Gilles Pouliot spell- ed out his own plans to save the forest industry last Wednesday. "If we continue the policies that are in place now, we will be sounding the death knell for the 42 northern communities that depend almost totally on our ability to produce wood fibre of a species and quali- ty that our existing mills needed to continue their operations."' Saying that over 75 per cent of the jobs in Nor- thwestern Ontario depend on the forest industry, the NDP's candidate called for a comprehensive inventory of standing timber. '"'How can we responsibly manage our woodlands when we don't even know what's out there. We need to know the species we have, their age, how accessible they are, and whether or not it's economical to cut them. When we know this we can put money into regenera- tion and reforestation in the areas where it is going to do the most good."' Pouliot also called for an continued on page 6 number of northern businesses. More than 90 per cent of the firms re- questing assistance have reported improved results in goods distribution and market penetration. MTC will take steps to establish the Thunder Bay railways should be used to transport, it is too dangerous, but if they have to the process should -be as safe as office as soon as possible, beginning with a search to fill the co-ordinator's posi- tion. The successful can- didate will work closely with the Ministries of Nor- thern Affairs, Industry and Trade and_ Natural Resources.
