P.O.Box 4300 Shawville, Quebec J0X 2Y0 Or e-mail: prepress DEADLINE MONDAY 5 p.m.Dear Editor: This year so far a lot of properties have changed hands in the Pontiac.Seniors have retired from farms and new people have taken over.Many building lots were sold and new construction of homes are in progress.In the past our youth moved to the city, never to return, the trend now seems to be to try to find something affordable within a half an hour driving distance from the city.Seniors with two to three years left to work or about to retire this year are looking to the Pontiac.They are buying or restoring their cottages for future retirement homes or buying lots to build their dream home.The key to keeping this trend moving and the building of the tax base in Pontiac is affordability.The costs have to be reasonable and kept low enough to attract new builders and buyers.Our communities need young families to support our school systems.The creation of jobs and the promotion of new industries should be in any vision plans for our area.When we see the number of seniors who come to the Jam Feat or the Shawville Fair in campers and who love the area, is there any doubt that a campsite in Quyon would not be successful?To draw the tourist, you have to invest in the tourist attractions.To invest tax dollars in all kinds of studies, then not follow through with the creation of jobs that would have been created makes no sense.\ti ¦ Communities need a mix of young families and seniors.For the young families we need affordable housing, be it rental units or starter homes.For our seniors we need senior housing.Many seniors would like to sell their farms or two storey homes as they can not care for them like they used to but have no place else to go.They want to stay in the Shawville, Quyon area but there aren't any small affordable bungalows for them in the area at this time, if they want to go into a seniors\u2019 apartment they are told there is a long waiting list.What we need: \u2022\tYear around transportation in Quyon, from Quyon to Fitzroy Harbour \u2022\tJobs, jobs, jobs for youth, be it in tourism, industry, farming, construction, trades \u2022\tAffordable housing, rental or starter home \u2022\tMunicipal money invested into the community into sports and recreation and community events \u2022\tSenior citizen housing, apartments or small bungalows \u2022\tA day car centre \u2022\tGood water \u2022\tA bakery \u2022\tAn industrial park that will attract industry into the area \u2022\tA camp site\t* \u2022\tDeveloping the tourist attractions eg.park along the Quyon River \u2022\tBus tours of historical sites \u2022\tShops and restaurants \u2022\tFarm tourist rides \u2022\tTo keep our history alive and as a tourist attraction a historical section to the library with all the different family histories in a family binder \u2022\tAn arts centre for the artists in the area.This could be the unused classrooms in our schools.It takes the whole community working together to build a community.There are good things happening in the area.New people moving in, new businesses being created.We need to move forward and be prepared.There is no better place to live than in the Pontiac.L OUR OPINION I Opponents prove hard work pays off The Voice of the Pontiac since 1883 It\u2019s almost impossible to take a stand on the
