BEWARE OF FRAUDS
Many frauds are attempted and a
small number of those are reported
to the police.
Over the fall period of 1994 there
were 10 attempted frauds reported
to the Goderich OPP, four to
Wingham OPP and four to Exeter
OPP as well as those to the
Goderich, Clinton and Wingham
Police Services.
There have been four cases
where these frauds resulted in local
area residents losing large sums of
money and having little hope of
recovering any of it. These scams
are done over the phone in the
majority of cases and except for
one, there is no personal contact as
the perpetrator cons the victim into
sending money to a remote
location, usually in Quebec, on the
pretext that they have won a car,
money or other prizes. An amount
of money is required as a good
faith gesture.
If you have information about
these or any other crimes call
Crime Stoppers of Huron County,
1-800-265-1777 and you could
receive a reward of up to $1,000.
Remember crime doesn't pay
Crime Stoppers does.
The Wingham Area office of the
Ontario Ministry of Natural
Resources announced June 2
funding of $30,000 for 10 fisheries
improvement and six wildlife
improvement projects within Huron
and Perth Counties. These projects
will help to improve and protect
habitat for fish and wildlife,
increase public knowledge and the
appreciation of the resources, teach
the values of stewardship, and
increase recreational opportunities.
Projects being funded under the
Community Fisheries Involvement
Program (CFIP) include the
rehabilitation of the Blyth Brook
with several local partners
including the Maitland Valley
Anglers Club (MVA) from
Goderich, the Blyth Optimist Club
and the Elliott family from Blyth.
The Nine Mile Steelheaders from
Port Albert will be involved in
stream rehabilitation, construction
and installation of two fish ladders
on Anderson Creek near Lucknow,
and in the transfer of adult rainbow
trout.
The Bayfield Anglers
Association (BAA) will be
involved with instream habitat
improvements to Middleton's Creek
within the Bayfield River
watershed. Both the BAA and the
MVA have also been successful in
obtaining funds for a rainbow trout
egg collection program for stocking
and rehabilitation of coldwater
streams.
Projects that are being funded
under the Community Wildlife
Involvement Program (CWIP)
include schoolyard habitat
improvement and the development
of learning grounds on school
properties at the Grey Central
Public School and the Upper
Thames Elementary School.
Initiatives at the Hullett
Provincial Wildlife Area near
Clinton were also funded. These
included habitat enhancement and
pruning work initiated by the
Clinton Public School, a wood
duck monitoring program spon-
sored by F.E. Madill Secondary
School at Wingham, and an erasion
control program supporter. by
