NDP playing at municipal politics

Dear Editor:

Recent rambling remarks
by NDP Schreck about local
elections contain so many
imaccuracies regarding the
Taxpayers Association for
Good Government (TAGG)

that I must request the
opportunity to set the record
straight.

1.TAGG endorsed my

candidacy for school board
after my nomination papers
were signed by two
prominent North Shore

residents who are not
aligned with a _ political
ar

2.TAGG was formed to
encourage well qualified
individuals to run for public
office and had nothing to do

with “fear” of any other
group.

3.TAGG is an in-
dependent group of

residents and does not have
a “vast amount” of support
from Social Credit; in fact,

‘out of their executive of 15

OPEN LETTER TO
PREMIER BENNETT

I find it deplorable that
the leader of the Social
Credit party, a political party
which you stated during the
last election was dedicated
to the principles of free
enterprise, has not done
more to further the cause of
healthy competition § in
business. A case in point —
allowing more freedom in
the auto insurance field.

Let me illustrate further.
If when procuring home or
life insurance, a person feels
that the premiums charged
are too expensive, or the
service wasn't up to standard
then we have the freedom to
choose another company
with which to do business.
However, when it comes to
the matter of auto insurance,
we do not have that choice.
We either do business with
the Insurance Corporation

of British Columbia or we

Bennett, why do we not have
the same freedom of choice,
with regard to auto in-
surance, that all the other
provinces of this country,
except one, enjoy?

I urge you to fulfill your
election promises to the
people of British Columbia,
and bring private auto in-
surance, for both basic and
optional coverage, back to
this province.

\
people,

only one has any
connection with a Social
Credit Constituency.

4.TAGG is comprised of
people who support in-
dividual enterprise and they
want responsible people to
represent them.

5.TAGG does not have

“party” line or policies

that I must follow; contrast
this with NoVVA_ which
provides 21 policy
statements on education to
“guide” its candidates.

Frankly, I was surprised to
see the prominence that the
North Shore News accorded
to this misinformation about
TAGG when the facts are so

Over many years, the NDP
have pushed party politics in
B.C. firstly at the municipal
level, then the school board
level, and recently with
Vancouver City Savings
Credit Union elections. If
Schreck has a probelm with
party pohtics at the local
level, I suggest that he take
the issue up with the NDP

School boards’ autonomy
has always been limited by
provincial rules and
responsible people recognize
the need for restraint at this
time. My concern has always
been that increased spending
by the school board requires
more money from local
taxpayers. Quality education
must be maintained but
there is a limit to the
financial resources of our
community.
