TO THE ELECTORS
OF TUCKERSMITH
It was at the insistence of many friends and neighbours and
after much thought that I decided to seek nomination for the
position of councillor. As a resident of Tuckersmith Township I
am concerned about the quality and quantity of government
that I receive. I think that in spite of what was said to the -con-
trary after the last provincial election, regional government is
still planned for all Ontario. I feel that the recent Property
Tax Revision Proposals are the first step toward that end. I am
opposed to regional government because I feel that it will
cater to more urbanization and industrial growth because of
the resulting broader tax base and that rural and agricultural
needs will be neglected. I also think that a regional govern-
ment will lose contact with the people. Just because it is
bigger doesn't mean it is better.
I have had no experience at municipal government but I feel
that my background will be of benefit. I am a graduate of
Centralia College of Agricultural Technology, class of '69. I
farm 350 acres and for five years I hove been a director of
the Hensall District Cooperative, this past year as 'Vice presi-
dent. If ydu are as concerned about the future of Tuckifsmith
Township as I am, on December 6 for councillor vote
