• Seaforth ti's only a :event ,diseovery ftv use. .ft's
unfortunate it tot* that long. For 4 tong time, because I
wasn't intiolved in affaiis in the conimunity other than as
a reporter. I will have to admit, that I wasn't the town's
greatest ambassador. I wasn't mean, ,I just didnt sing its
praises, In the past short while. activities with a couple of
organizations in the town have put me in contact with
good people • members of the ball team come first to
mind - and those appealing things people have continued
to say about this town begin to come to light; Good
people. very good times, outstanding memories, and all
dote to thefact that I managed to get involved.
' In a sense.' too. ene's good feeling about a place can
sneak up on you, and at once catch you by surprise. This
is a result not so much of active involvement as it is of
passive immersion. Over time, one grows accustomed.
and things that once concerned the reporter begin to
trouble one as a member of the community.
Seaforth council, and the recent problems at the arena
illustrated that to me. Generally. I think I've managed a
reasonably , respectable 'working relationship with our
town government. As in any case of government and
journalism meeting. thereis inclined to be some form of an
adverserial relationship established. Comments about
inaccuracy, misquotes, but never any formal challenges
from council's side, have been muttered. I. too, have
questions about some of the steps council has taken
which seen a direct challen,ge . te the media„,„,le, my
position there is alWays a glimmer of distrust with the
elected officials. One wonders, for instance, after a
meeting has ended. why councillors are not leaving. First
question is 'Are they going to discuss something in
private without announcing it?'
Nevertheless, one needs to keep in mind these people
have chosen to represent their community, to defend. it
help it grow 'and hopefully make Seaforth a better place to
live. None of them is going, to get. rich doing that, so they
aren't in it for the money.
The sincerity was evident the evening the engineer
from London showed up to tell council the town's arena.
perhaps the most important facility in the community,
was unsafe and should be condemned.

A 1.81TILE TACKY?
This may be a little tacky, but i've bitten my tongue
over this since last September. It was a bad experience
for me, because it was the first time I'd been exposed to
it in this profession. The angry interview subject.
After a certain incident, the subject gave several
comments, including one answer to a direct. question.
Because it was a direct, separate question, the answer,
too, was specific and direct. It was also a stupid answer.
Well, after the story ran, that person called me Uri and
procedded to dismantle any semblance of professional
-pride- -Fd-- managed lo." acritintilate: -sway- journalism,.
trash, out-of-context. garbage. can't get your facts point out that these veterans
straight, and on it went. My editor saw me descend the are ,permanent residents at
stairs in trembling.anger and some form of retribution was - Westminister hospital. That
on my mind. But I've held off till now, but I have this for
that person's information.'
• It has to do with his final comment he made before
slamming the phone in my ear. His point, in telling me
couldn1 get my facts straight. was I couldn't write about
Bayfield, and couldn't write about theatre in Grand Bend.
Well, just so he can get his facts straight, I have never
written about Bayfield, nor have I ever attended a play in
Grand Bend. He had the wrong writer.
Thanks, though. because you taught me something.
