As per invitation, two women, Huron -Middlesex NDP candidate Gwen Pemberton and her cam- paign manager Moira Couper, both of Bayfield, showed up at the Seaforth Legion last week to attend the Brotherhood Night banquet. The event was sponsored by the Oddfellows Lodge, and attended by members of the Lions Club, Masonic Lodge, Knights of Columbus, Optimists, Legion, Foresters and Orange Lodge. Shortly after the women arrived and during the social hour, a delegation of men asked them to leave since the event was for men only. Mrs. Pemberton later commented, "I've ;never been treated with such inhospitality and discour- tesy. „ Invitations to the Brotherhood Night banquet were forwarded to the three political parties in the area. Neither of Mrs. Pemberton's opponents in the riding, Tory Jim Britnell or Liberal Jack Riddell were able to attend. However, Mrs. Pemberton accepted the invitation and Mrs. Couper called IOOF member Ross Sillery of Seaforth and reported, "I told him quite plainly who the candidate was." Mr. Ribey told her that it was an all men's event, but Mrs. Couper told him the two women didn't mind. Mr. Ribey confirmed he .diad... forewarn ._Mrs. _Couper. about the men -only natureof the banquet, but said that events at the evening were an "unfortunate" misun- derstanding on both parts. Mr. Ribey didn't wish to comment further on the mix - Both Mrs. Couper and Mrs. Pemberton were told by one man, "we like to have something once in awhile without women (present)." The dinner was catered by members of the Legion Ladies Auxiliary, but they did not site down with banquet guests. Since the women's ejec- tion, Seaforth's Brotherhood Night has received national coverage, with stories in the Metro edition of The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star and in London, Kitchener and Windsor papers. An editorial in The Sunday Star noted, "When (Mrs.) Pemberton showed up, she was promptly shown the door.
