Your Opinion The News went out onto the street this week to ask several residents of Terrace Bay whether they want an A&W. Jeanette Fournier and Melanie Levesque want the A&W really bad. "I just want the french fries and good food,"} said Jeanette. "It will show off our town," said Melanie, right. Birchwood's Helene Ballard- "Surely there's room for anoth- er business in town. I don't know what all the hoopla is about. I would like to see it come in. I cant' walk to My Fries.." Page 3, News, Wednesday, February 17, 1988 Kim Murray, man- ager of Robinson's in Terrace Bay, said, "Yes, it would be good business for the town. We need something to draw the tourists here. I can't think of any- thing bad about it." Terry's Sound owner Terry Sight & Korzinski told the News, "Yes, why not?" Korzinski likes the idea of fast food ser- vice and a franchise. "They have good food; good and cheap."

It took an hour for the officer to finally get some information. In another instance, it was found that an individual was an armed robber who had served 32 years in prison, Kidder said police handled this and the other situations without knowing all the facts; a potential- ly dangerous situation. Police would be aware of per- sons like this and their history with CPIC. Kidder informed council there would be no cost to the communi- ty to obtain CPIC; the only cost would be the manning of it. _The installation is even paid for by CPIC. All costs of CPIC, including the monthly line rental, repairs and format changes are-all cost free. Kidder said the RCMP is the landlord of CPIC, but in fact not the bosses. Each police force in Canada has access and availability to all information in CPIC. CPIC provides protection to the officers and safety to the com- munity. "Your officers and the commu- nity are better protected by having CPIC on location," Kidder said.
