way, for "top-notch jobs.” Through their.
• efforts, adequate funding for.colleges and
universities has been restored and an in-
crease in spending on new schools and
renovations to older schools has been look-
. ed 'after, he said.
For the economic side, Mr. Riddell' used
• 'the latest budget as an example.
"Our last provincial budget responds to
the individuals, regions and industries that
need immediate help and provides for the'
' long-term needs in, Ontario's social
programs."
In the employment • area, 153,000 jcibs
were created in 1986 .with 139,000 of that
• figure falling into the full time category.
As' well, "Ontario ' has the lowest.
- 'seasonally adjusted unemployment rate of
all provinces in January at 6.6 per cent. By
comparison, the rate for the rest of •
Canada, excluding Ontario, was' 11.6 per
' cent," said Mr. Riddell. • ' •
•Citing examples of improvements the
Liberals will be making in the health care
area, Mr. Riddell pointed out the 7A per
cent increase on hospital spending and the
' ' .6.8 per cent increase on funding to health
. units es examples.
AGRICULTURAL HELP •
As Minister . of Agriculture and Food,
Mr. Riddell's main interest was looking
after the farmers. -
' "My number one priority has been •the
• current difficult financial situation that
farmers have faced since the beginning of
this decade," he said.
To help,aileviate these problems, the
laiberal government has increased spen-
ding on agriculture by 61 per cent in two
-years.
According to Mr. Riddell, "`c'hat's a big-
gerincrease than any other ministry by
far."
At this point, Mr. Riddell expressed
• displeasure with the leader of the opposi- •
• tion, Larry Grossman. •
"I find it incredible that Larry
Grossman has the nerve to stand up and
• criticize our expenditures on agriculture
as being too little," commented Mr.
Riddell.
Citing examples as to how the govern-
ment has assisted the agriculture sector,
Mr. Riddell said the Ontario Family Farm
Interest Rate Reduction Program (OP-
' mart) paid out $46 -million to over 9.500

Drain reporf, '
(Continued from Page A3)
used to determine the crop damage and .the
benefits to be received. John Van •Miltenburg
questioned the engineer as to whether any
consideration had been given to the alfalfa
crop, whirl' is a three-year crop rather than'
just one year loss and Mr, Wallace said' he
was ,also concerned about- losing an alfalfa
crop for three years rather than the normal
one year loss. Vern and Gary Alderdice, who
were also present, asked about the -benefit to
two properties
The Court • of Revision denied the appeals
tsy th Vatr-Miltenbprg•-and-the : Wallace
families.
-Six tenders • on the Alderdice • Drainage
single, le n4 re were -opened -',and -referred -to -the, -municipal
engineer for his recommendation,
in other business • council established a fine
of $50 per owner, will be made for any stray
Cdogslinidelivered to the Seaforth Veterinary
c,.
Road. Superintendent, Douglas Poulton is
authorized, to attend the '1.987 T.J. Maloney
Road School at Guelph Uniyersityfrom May 3
to May 6.
The Seaforth Optimist Club is granted
permission to use. the Tuckersmith Township
shed for their anodal canoe race.on April 5.
Council granted permission to Ron Broome
to relocate the Dapple Drainage Works on Lot
11, Pian 232, to the edge of the property and
then connect to the existing storm drainage
on Water Street. .
Council established a policy of paying
spouses registrations at conventions. As well
the township will establish. ' a $25 food
allowance per day to be paid to delegates
attending a convention to a maximum of five
families in Ontario. Locally, 807 farmers in
Huron County were given a total amount of
$4 -million. -
"If agriculture is .depressed, the , local
farm equipment dealer feels the pinch, so
do the feed and seed dealers, the truckers,
the sales barn operators and so on.
"Employees of these operations also•feel
the pinch and May even lose their jobs.
This in turn 'affects all other local
businesses. It impacts on the food stores,.
the Clothing stores,. the furniture and ap-
pliance outlets and so on. ' And when the
whole community is affected economical-
ly, then the social, recreational and
religious institutions are also affected. •
"So.you can see the health of agriculture
very much affects communities such as
Clinton, Wingham, Goderich, Seaforth and
Exeter," explained Mr. Riddell.
ASSISTING HURON COUNTY
Mr. Riddell told' the full house audience
that he believes Huron County residents
have benefited from the Liberal's being in
power.
"Let megive you a few examples;" he
said. "$184,722 to the Huron County ,
Library Board for the creation of a
database of the library holdings;
$1.2 -million to the Huron County Pioneer
Museum; $33,000 to Stanley Township for
culvert replacement; $770,000 to Hay
Township for a major water works pro-
ject; $13,134 for improvements to the
Stephen Township Arena and $112,000 to
'the •Ausable-Bayfield Conservation
Authority for a rural beaches study."
Mr. Riddell went on further to say the
Liberal Party values the many community
hospitals, adding the Seaforth hospital
received $1.2 -million to expand"its
emergency department and the Alexandra
Marine 'and General Hospital received
$110,550 to expand the psychiatric out-
patient
utpatient facilities.
"And the Clinton hospital, which the
Tories tried to close,.received $400,000 for
a new obstetrical wing," he added.
Everyone is expecting an election in the
near future so preparations are now under-
way, and Mr. Riddell warna that if the
• Huron riding wants to continue receiving
the type of financial support it has enjoyed
recently, the Liberals must win this riding.
"It would be extremely dangerous to sit
back en aur laurels at this time and expect
that we have some sort of Ovine right to
hold this riding. ; , • -
. "Nothing can be further from the truth.
We,must continually work to earn the right
to represent the people of this riding," said
Mr. Riddell: "We are now on ' election
footing..I,don't know, when an election will
be called, but we have to be -ready."
• ELECTION OF DELEGATES
• Twelve delegates, with no alternates will
attend the annual meeting to be held in
'April. They are Maude •,Hoffman,
Dashwood; Margaret McClure, Crediton;
