it did,” he said.
Ginn was miffed, however, by Van
Diepenbeek’s disappointment over
something Ginn felt he had helped
create. He was also concerned aboutthe timing and he didn’t know whythe lawsuit began nearly a year afterthe election.
“It took five to six months to get it
to the point where you could take it
to court,” Van Diepenbeek said.
Stewart, however, was confused as
to why it took that long, but said hecouldn’t comment fairly, as it wasnot him who was doing the filing.“I can’t explain the timing,”
Stewart said. “I’m not going to
comment on how another lawyer
does his work.”
Ginn then stated a “fact” about the
population numbers provided by
MPAC, saying that it was a fact that
they are flawed.
Goderich Mayor Deb Shewfelt,
however, took exception to that fact,
saying that it wasn’t actually a fact.“That’s your opinion,” Shewfeltsaid. “I don’t know why we’rediscussing this. There’s been a
decision made by the court.”
Shortly after speaking, Shewfelt
stormed out of the room and
Bluewater’s Bill Dowson urged
Warden Neil Vincent to take control
of the situation as it was gravitating
towards being out of order.
Vincent said the last time the
composition of Huron County
Council was discussed by councilwas in January at a Committee of theWhole meeting. He said moreinformation was supposed to come
back, at which time council would
debate it once again. It was never
brought back up.
“I do not want debate going back
and forth across the floor,” Vincent
said.
Vincent said if anyone was feeling
the crunch, it was him and the
Representatives disappointed with proceedings

they may be interested in once they get to high school.
