MPP says spring election is realistic the looming,provincial elec- tion and when it would take place. The member cited the advertising blitz that the in- cumbent party is promoting, which asks the public to preserve and ' conserve On- tario. Riddell said that this would indicate that the On- tario government has already hit the hustings, and therefore the province could expect-a fall election. However, he also said that because the premier has no election issues. and because the premier has committed his minority government to a "full term", it is more realistic to expect a spring '81 election. Another question from the floor concerned the number of years that students spend in school withOut ever lear- ning a , trade. Mr. Riddell suggested that, in the distant future, one could expect to see the Honours High School Diploma (grade 13) awarded after four years of secon- dary school, He said also that less emphasis should be placed on a university degree and more emphasis accented on Bill 82. Bill 82, a proposal outlined by a committee on which Riddell sits, would show more consideration for Special Education. meaning abnormally slow learners as well as those who are brighter than average would be given the opportunity to work at their own pace. When asked why Canada charges a 20 per cent tax to American investors, Mr, Riddell countered that, too often, Canadians pay a penalty because a U.S. parent company will ex-. perience financial difficulty, causing it to close down its Canadian subsidiary instead of an "at home" plant or of- fice. In addition, many American firms apply for an Ontario status and are able to circumvent many applicable taxes in this way. The MPP closed by saying that foreign ownership has been one of his greatest con- cerns. sidewalk some merchants . actually own. He said his employer, A&H Food Market, had been advised they were displaying produce some four inches onto town property and he questioned how that could be determined. Wright accused some members of nit-picking. • Councillor Don Cameron finally ended the discussion when he suggested council get a legal opinion on their position and clerk Liz 'Bell was instructed to do so and report to the next meeting. In another matter in- volving downtown mer- chants, council deferred any action on a suggestion that the recent costs involved in the annual sidewalk sale be written off. Councillor Al Epp, who made the suggestion at the Jack Riddell, the Member of Provincial Parliament for Huron-Middlesex. spoke to the Goderich Rotary Club recently. After speaking to the groan on two of the country's more salient issues, the chairman of the meeting opened the floor for any questions that the audience might have. One question dealt with Following Helen, was third runner up Karen. Neukann of Aylmer and East Elgin and fourth runner up was Kendra MacPherson of Cambridge. Helen said she made several friends during the competition. Some had met in Februrary, when CNE officials had invited them to Toronto to get an idea of what was involved in the fair queen contest. Helen says she has corresponded with some of the girls since then. The girls themselves voted on Miss Congeniality, and the award went to Cathy Macewko of Walkerton. Helen recently acted in a production of The Sunshine, Boys at Huron Country Playhouse. She is employed at the Junction, in Exeter. This week she is taking some time off from her job to get a start in a modelling career. She is travelling to Calgary with Agripress to pose for photpgraphs for the Uniroyal , Chemical • company'.
