Summary World Blizzard conditions will persist across northwestern Ontario and southern Manitoba as the combination of snow and strong winds will make travel very difficult, if not impossible. Total snow accumulations will exceed 30 centimetres in some locations, and winds will gust above 60 kmh. Showers will affect the remainder of Ontario as southerly winds bring mild air into that region. Meanwhile, nice weather will be found at both sides of the storm.

Much of the eastern part of the country will be dry and mild. Alberta will have some sunshine, with temperatures near 5 degrees, although a change to colder weather is likely later this week.

Regional government was seen as a way of providing a united approach to these problems and expanding services, such as roads and sewers, without imposing sudden tax increases on ratepayers. But other politicians, such as Nepean Mayor Ben Franklin, say a one-tier system would erode local autonomy, replacing responsive local governments with a huge bureaucratic monster that might eat even more tax dollars. Franklin called the plebiscite "a smokescreen" created by Ottawa politicians to cover the city's mounting debt and deteriorating sewers and roads.

fire services, recreation and day-to-day planning, as well as collecting municipal, regional and school taxes. The upper tier or regional government is responsible for things such as social services, major roads, water, sewage disposal and transit. Under the super-city concept, the regional government would be abandoned and the region's rural municipalities would then form their own region. The two-tier system was established in 1969 the first in Ontario as a way to co-ordinate planning and development between Ottawa, which was seeing capital expenses increase rapidly because of growth, and the sur one, predicts it will never come to be. "They (Ottawa councillors) can go ahead and pursue it if they wish, but it will be a frosty Friday before you see that change in the region," he said Monday night.

Supporters of the one-tier system, such as Ottawa Mayor Jim Durrell, argue the current system of 11 local governments is inefficient, redundant and a waste of taxpayers' money. He and other super-city supporters want to see Ottawa, Ne-pean, Gloucester, Kanata, Cumberland and Rockcliffe Park formed into a single municipality of about 600,000 people. Under the current system, the lower tier or local governments take care of police and Super-city is a hit. Ottawans indicated by a margin of more than four to one in Monday's balloting they want the region's cumbersome two-tier form of government remodeled into a one-tier, super-city system. In a plebiscite, 63,950 voters supported the concept, while only 14,749 voted against.

The plebiscite which was held only in Ottawa and is not binding asked residents if they favored their city working toward one level of municipal government for the region's urban area. The concept is far from becoming a sure thing. Kanata Mayor Des Adam, for Quality Has Its Price and no Ws on ae The Audio Shop is renovating but before we do you have the opportunity to save. You'll find generous reductions seldom seen on the world's finest audio and video products such as Bang Olufsen, NAD, Nakamichi, Energy plus many more in-store specials. Don't delay! Quantities are limited so come early for best selection at the Audio Shop's "Spectacular Pre-Renovation Sale." The renovations start soon! The savings start now! overshadowed the municipal one.

The low turnout seemed to favor the incumbent mayors in the region. All 11, including the five acclaimed earlier in the race, will return to regional council. Even in Kanata, where a close race was forecast, Mayor Des Adam easily beat former mayor Marianne Wilkinson. Vanier Mayor Gisele Lalonde won the other rematch from 1985, outdistancing former mayor Wilfrid Champagne. In the rural municipalities, Goulbourn Mayor Anton Wyten-burg, Osgoode Township Mayor Albert Bouwers and Rideau Township Mayor Glenn Brooks were given new terms.

Incumbent mayors acclaimed in Ottawa-Carleton include: Nepean's Ben Franklin, Gloucester's Harry Allen, Rockcliffe Park's Patrick Murray, Cumberland's Peter Clark, and West Carleton's Eric Craig. In contrast, 10 newcomers were elected to Ottawa's 16-member council in 1985. Recounts are expected in the Dalhousie ward where Janigan squeezed by Peter Harris by only 13 votes and in the Britannia ward, where Jones beat the incumbent Ruth Wildgen by only 12 votes. It was an up and down night for Wildgen who was first declared the winner by four votes at about midnight by electoral officials. This margin was cut to two votes and then finally Jones was announced the winner.

Ottawa experienced vote reporting problems all evening and officials were counting one more poll than existed when they closed down for the night. Officials were blaming it on computer foul-ups this morning. Defeated Ottawa Council members and councillors from other municipalities who served on the region can take some solace in the severance pay they voted themselves earlier this year. They will receive one month's salary for every year served on each council with a maximum of six months salary. An Ottawa alderman is eligible to collect up to $21,000 in severance pay.

Even the addition of a plebiscite on overhauling the region's two-tier government and fairly mild weather failed to generate interest in Ottawa. Ottawa residents voted about four to one to give its council the go-ahead to seek a one-tier government. Durrell said his council will take the issue to regional council and ask them to study it. He said the concept is one of "common sense" and residents in the region need to be informed about the benefits. One position on regional council will remain uncertain for a few more weeks.

The most powerful position in the region, the regional chairman, is appointed by council's 32 members and is expected to be filled by incumbent Andy Haydon. The Ontario government has promised regional reforms, which are expected to include an elected chairman, for the 1991 election. In the Ottawa Valley, one of the most dramatic races was in Augusta Township, where a slate of candidates angry about a proposed toxic waste incinerator was swept into office. In what amounted to a referendum on the controversial proposal, voters defeated all four incumbents seeking re-election. In Pembroke, a lawyer who is suing the city was elected its new mayor.

Terry McCann defeated four challengers, beating his closest rival by an 851-vote margin. McCann, 50, will take over from veteran Angus Campbell, who stepped down this year after holding the post intermittently for 17 years. McCann has promised to drop his lawsuit if elected. He is suing the city for selling a piece of waterfront land to a town employee. In Cornwall, what was expected to be a hot contest between five challengers turned into a surprisingly easy victory for businessman Phil Poirier.

Poirier succeeds Mayor Brian Lynch, who did not seek re-election. It wasn't a good night for candidates challenging mayors in Lanark, Leeds and Grenville counties. Four of the five incumbents were re-elected or appeared to be heading back for another three-year term. Sandra Lawn was re-elected mayor of Prescott, while 27-year-old Steven Clark coasted to an easy victory in Brockville. The only upset was in Kempt-ville, where incumbent Ralph Raina lost to newcomer Jean Sommerville, a real estate broker.

In Smiths Falls, incumbent Laurence Lee won by more than 300 votes and Carleton Place Mayor Melba Barker won by more than 1,430. Warrants issued for Carbide officials BHOPAL, India (UPI) A judge issued arrest warrants today for two officials of Union Carbide Corp. and the American company's former chairman, Warren Anderson, to face charges of "culpable homicide" of nearly 3,000 Bhopal gas victims. In a separate civil case being heard in the Bhopal District Court, India is suing Union Carbide for $3 billion, alleging the corporation's negligence caused the disaster.
