WARREN 1450 McTavish Road, Sidney. : ‘OUR CHILDREN WILL PAY, : Recent news items in your pa- per: seem to pose. another threat to our ‘democratic way of life. I refer to the Central Saanich ‘sewer program. os -Fram. these items. it. would seem that the Municipality . of Central Saanich has lost some of its autonomy to the regional board. Unless I misinterpret, itseems that the main trunk lines and the so Called treatment plant are to be installed before any referen- dum is put to the people ofCentral Saanich df this is. the case, then any. the taxpayers money, since we will already be committed through the regional boards is- suing of cebentures. ‘AS a taxpayer I resent having my taxes raised in the amount necessary to provide these sew- ers without having any say in the matier. As a taxpayer I resent paying taxes to have my own private efiluent transported to a treat- ment plant, I should muchprefer to pay a lump sum for this dis- posal and leave my taxes alone. I believe that f should continue to own my share of any disposal system, amt I am willing to pay for my share of a proper system of dispusal, but I resent paying four or five times as much as the present system costs, which is exactly what happens when such things afe paid for on taxés, As 1 have pointed out in the past there is another way to pay for sewers. f have stodied this, and have convinced many focal people tht the idea is sound. There setms to be one stumbling block that stalis cowm- cil flat.: Becagse it is net per- . missable ‘under “the municipal act; they” ‘seem reluctant to even examine this method.

I may say that it is quite untrue that (1) the Rector of St. Stephens, one of the mar- : kers, is alleged to have enquired '.of each approachingrunner, whe~ ther he were an Anglican; if © ‘Yes’ he pointed them on the right course; if ‘No’ he pointed up hill the other way, and (2) that Dr. Groves handed out a list of his visiting hours. for sore feet or (3) that Commander Clayard, the alderman, passed — out bills ‘Vote for the sewer’, The work of all the officials - and recorders was excellent - - led by Mr. Bryan Rudgard of Gienlyon School, Mr. Bowhea of the Victoria Track and Field, while the bagpipes of Mr. Alf Pink and the hunting horn of Mr. Tony Yonge were most ap- preciated. Finally i wish to thank the Directors of N, & S. Saa« nich Agricultural Board for their facilities and help. in all + it was a community effort which made the run fun and a success, I congratulate all the runners, aged 12 tw over 40 for their spirit and determination.
