Discuss Regional
Plans At Zurich
(continued from page 1)
would pay for them and that
such matters could be resolved
under the system of government
suggested.
Bayfield Reeve Ed Oddleifson
learned that John Pearson fav-
ored a two-tier system of govern-
ment as a way to "grow leader-
ship locally."
Charles Thomas, reeve of
Grey, said the local govern rents
have more problems and less
money every year. He compl-
ained that senior government
was not giving the municipal-
ities a broad enough tax base
and stated that tax reform should
go hand in hand with govern-
ment reform.
Pearson explained that the
machanics for tax reform are
underway.
Will this give us more money?
asked Thomas.
Pearson indicated that it could
provide more money but that
the Ontario government would
continue to look at the way
money is being spent locally as
well as to suggest ways money
could be saved.
Anson McKinley, deputy -
reeve of Stanley said it was
"none of their (Toronto's) bus-
iness how money is spent locally
He said if we are going to elect
people toovern affairs locally
they should also be given the
responsibility to dispense their
own financial affairs.
"And that's what you'should
be saying to the people as you
travel around the province,
McKinley told Pearson.
Pearson reminded McKinley
that first, the local structure
must be a workable one.
Walker indicated that he
could support a system whereby
some of the authority now the
responsibility of Queen's Park
would be delegated locally. He
suggested this transfer of power
could prevent the local govern-
ments from being "second gues-
sed by Toronto.'
In his remarks, Zurich Reeve
Gordon Hess said he detested
the term Regional Government
and preferred to call it govern-
ment reform. He said we must
be concerned not about what
exists today, but what will exist
in the future.
Warden Roy Westcott said he
had mixed feelings on govern-
ment reforal. He commended
the Chamber of Commerce for
their interest in the matter, but
suggested the Chamber of Com-
merce members should follow
this through by getting more in-
volved in local politics, perhaps
attending nomination meetings,
etc., more faithfully.
