O.M.E.A. President,
Ronald K. Walker of
Milssrssauga, -- impressed- --
delegates with the fact
that the ultimate strength
of the Association lies
with local com-
missioners, people who
are liked and respected in
their home communities
and' whose collective
advice carries a lot of
weight with the people of
Ontario at grassroots
level.
He stated, "While we
have this strength, any
government will listen to
us, without it even the
best of executives would
be useless. We must be
very careful that we don't
end up with a beautiful
tree without any roots".
"The commissioner
cannot afford to be
parochial.• ' The com-
missioners cannot leave
the broader matters to
the association officers
only. Everyone has a job
to do, to understand the
issues and to speak to
those issues, particularly
in this forum and with
your local MLAs and with
your 'community, all, of
your community, which
you can do best."
