McClure remembers
office fire n 1979
during her 28 years and
remarks thatpoliticians in
McKillop Township are more
often acclaimed than elected
to their positions on township
council.
"We must have a very
satisfied bunch 'in McKillop
Township because therle's
very rarely an elec�tiQn.
During the last election' in
1997, we didn't receive one
enquiry about running for
council." she says.
McClure says that even
though she doesn't always
agree with township council,
she's enjoyedworking with
all the councillors and doing
the work of carrying out their
