Riddell will lead Liberals again
BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE
No election had been called yet the
Liberals and Progressive Conservatives in
Huron -Middlesex are already challenging
one another.
Both MPP Jack Riddell of Huron -
Middlesex and MPP Sean Conway of Ren-
frew North took verbal swipes at the PC's in
response to earlier comments.
MPP Conway, the provincial Liberal op-
position's deputy house leader, was the
guest speaker at the nomination meeting in
Exeter, Mr. Riddell was acclaimed as the
Liberal candidate.
Both speeches referred to comments
made the previous week at the PC nomina-
tionmeeting in the same location - South
Huron District High School in Exeter.
In one remark, MPP Riddell said a PC
lawyer who had criticized the Huron -
Middlesex Liberals has sent clients to his
office for help.
The opposition's deputy -house leader said
Huron -Middlesex PC's,"caboose" is "at-
tached to the provincial Tory gravy train".
Mr. Conway poked fun at many of the pro-
vincial cabinet ministers and referred to the
government back benchers as a "collection
of pussycats". Carrying on the cat theme,
MPP Conway said Premier Bill Davis is like
a cat laying in a bay window - it only needs
to be turned over every once in a while and
tickled.
Mr. Riddell spoke on his record as a
member of provincial parliament. He noted
his efforts in the area of school bus safety
and the occupational health and safety act.
The MPP took exception to comments
made by the local PC's that indicated his
vote majority has increasingly declined
since first elected in 1973.
Mr. Riddell said his majority increased in

$2.1 million needed
dor renovations
county council learns
WE HONOUR
VISA & MASTER CARD
Ph: 524-2822
BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE -
Renovations of $2.1 million for the Huron
County Pioneer Museum have been recom-
mended to Huron County Council by
Museums Programmes Collaborative, a
museum consulting firm from Toronto.
County council heard the proposal as
presented by architect Christopher Borgal
of Blyth and Bruce County museum
curator Claus Breede of Southampton at
its October session.
The collaborative was commissioned
earlier this year to study the location of the
museum and its operating and manage-
ment policies and to project future direc-
tions.
County council made no decision at its
recent session regarding the museum. It is -
expected that the report will be referred to
its agriculture and property committee at
a special meeting on Oct. 11.
Chairman of that committee, Bayfield
Reeve Dave Johnston, said his committee
would have to know the feelings of county
council members regarding the future of
the museum.
He noted the $2.1 million figure is in 1984
dollars. The reeve roughly calculated that
at $500,000 a year over four years, the pro-
ject would cost Goderich $55,000 a year and
Exeter $26,000. These estimates were bas-
ed on 45 per cent of the total cost being
covered by grants.
Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle said a
breakdown of costs per municipality
should be prepared by the agriculture and
property committee and presented to the
respective municipalities. He added that
residents should know the mill increase.
The report does not recommend either
moving the museum or completely
rebuilding it.
"We recommend that the Huron County
Pioneer Museum proceed with option
three - the phased implementation of a
plan including the restoration of the Cen-
tral School building, the replacement of
the additions to the school, the addition of a
service wing, renovation of the workshop
building and the conservation of the log
cabin," states the report.
Besides changes in the physical
building, the report suggests a reorganiza-
tion of the staff and improvements to the
program.
The phased -in renovations start with the
construction of a storage area at the back
of the existing area.
The lack of storage space is one of the
major failings of the current 42,000 square
foot facility.
Constructing the storage area first, said
Mr. Borgal, will allow a portion of the
displays to be stored while other areas are
under construction. Also, once the building
is completed, the artifacts could be rotated
between storage and display.
Environmental control was another ma-
jor concern noted in the report. Mr. Breede
commented that whatever the weather is
like outside, it's practically the same in the
museum.
Hay Deputy Reeve Tony Bedard wanted
to know how many people had attended the
two public meetings held in the summer.
He was told there was a total of about 160.
Mr. Bedard wanted to know where the peo-
ple are who are interested in the museum.
A large crowd anticipated at the county
council session never materialized. The
spectator section was filled with represen-
tatives from two municipal councils, the
ministry of correctional services,
members of the committee which
prepared the terms of reference for the
collaborative and a handful of individuals.
