Char s is Hvolvoc Nit uron Ric ing
He doesn't want to stand on a ribbon cutting, hand shaking, flag
waving campaign — that's for the birds. Charlie wants a better
Huron Riding and he means it. He's a digger not a scratcher. He'll
discover those area problems and he'll meet the people concerned
face to face to discuss them. And he's not afraid of getting his
boots dirty if its going to promote Huron and Middlesex.
He's a member of the Tax Review Committee of County Council
and a member of the Social Services Committee. He belongs to
many. Federal and Procincial animal breeding associations. He's
served on the Regional Development Council for eight years —
latterly as vice-president and he's served on the Huron Planning
Board — last year as chairman.
Charlie is a farmer and understands farming problems. He's
convinced that the sugar beet industry could be revived in Huron
and Middlesex. He feels there are better ways of marketing corn
in peak periods and he'd like to encourage more Canadian farmers
to become involved in livestock breeding.
And Charlie will fight for other benefits, too.. For instance, he'd
like more area' development, he believes in Goderich Harbor as a
potential Great Lakes port, he feels that Sky Harbor airport
should be maintained and would fight fora subsidy, if necessary.
Stimulation of local industry is anothef key issue Charlie believes
in. He wants to give incentives to light industry to boost local
economy. And he wants to make sure the 'brains' of Huron and
Middlesex stay in Huron Riding instead of heading south or to
the cities.
A better Huron Riding is worth fighting for. Charlie Thomas is a
fighter.
