As it turns out, the church operates a drop-in centre for the homeless on Sunday and accepted the coats. "When we delivered them last year, there was this one guy there and he was a homeless person," said McGavin. "He helped us take them in and he was kind of happy." "So I thought I'd do it again this year so he could be happy," McGavin said. In November, the St. James Grade 4 student again asked friends, family and the members of her church if they could help her collect some winter gear for the homeless. McGavin said the she hopes that by doing this she can motivate more people to give to local fundraisers like Coats for Kids and the Huron Christmas Bureau. "We realize there's an issue around home here but she was concerned about Toronto. So that's why we took them there," said McGavin's father, Brian.

Cherri DiNovo, minister of the Howard Park United Church, said that McGavin's mission is a "sweet thing." "I wish she could have been there to see the expressions on their faces when the coats came in because it was like a fashion show," said DiNovo. "All afternoon they would come in try on coats, walk up and down, look in the mirror and ask if it fit," said DiNovo. "It was very sweet." DiNovo, who ministered in this area previously, explained that winter coats are invaluable at this time of the year because some people don't have the money to buy one. "So for many of our•folk, these are the nicest article of clothing they would receive all year and certainly the most practical because it's cold," DiNovo said. "A coat can make a lifesaving difference," said. If you are interested in donating winter clothing to help the homeless contact McGavin at 519-527-2394. Councillors hope to avoid costs of pipeline, filtration From Page 1 Seaforth, it will cost approximately $1.5 million to build a pumphouse and pipe the water into town. "But, first you've got to find that well - it can't be GUDI and it can't have radionucleides and that's still only one source," he said. The town needs a back-up source of water along with a primary source. Local councillors continued to speak against the pipeline project on Monday. "If it's going to bankrupt the ward of Seaforth, I'm not interested one little bit," said Seaforth Coun. Joe Steffler. "Maybe we'll have to bite the bullet and go with the pipeline but it's still $10 million if there's 50 per cent funding (from the province) and that's still pretty damned expensive," he said. "Nothing that's been said here today convinces me that the pipeline is the answer. Water three miles away is still cheaper," added Tuckersmith Coun. Larry McGrath. But, Seili said he doesn't want to spend $4 million upgrading local wells, only to discover that the water is still not meeting provincial standards. "I just don't want to have to go back to South Huron in two years and we still run that risk very heavily," he said. Burns said that Huron East building its own pipeline to Lake Huron could double the current projections of $20 million. South Huron council has asked both Huron East and Bluewater councils to let them know if they will join the pipeline project by the end of January. Huron East Clerk -Administrator Jack McLachlan told those at the meeting that after a Monday morning meeting with Bluewater, he learned that Bluewater will not be making a decision until spring. Hensall, which is part of Bluewater, is facing problems with high nitrate levels in its water. McLachlan added if Hensall does not join the pipeline project, that choice could eliminate Seaforth since it would add to the costs of the project for Huron East. Seili said after Monday's meeting that he is hoping to be able to give South Huron an answer by the end of March. Steckle says he'll vote against same sex marriage By Cheryl Heath Clinton News -Record Editor Huron -Bruce residents should expect MP Paul Steckle to vote in opposition to a planned free vote in the House of Commons on the proposed legalization of same-sex marriage. The vote, which doesn't require Members of Parliament -- with the exception of Liberal cabinet members and parliamentary secretaries to Justice Minister Irwin Cotler — to cast a ballot in favour of the plan, is expected to be held in February. "This is not just a Christian issue," says Steckle, an outspoken opponent of same-sex marriage. He says many religions, as well as a number of clergy, are strongly against being compelled to officiate over same- sex unions. Steckle says same- sex couples are free to live together i n committed relationships, but believes the unions should not be consecrated. "Don't call it marriage," says Steckle. "There are some things that have stood the test of time." Steckle says there is a possibility the House of Commons will vote against the idea of opening the door to same -sept marriage. " , is ..i -t, not a fait acc . w he says. Quoted `This is not just a Christian issue,'— Huron-Bruce MP Paul Steckle
