Paul Klopp, M.P.P. for Huron
has announced that a number of
projects have been funded by the
Government of Ontario to fight the
effects of the recession.
Clinton is to receive $842,000 for
replacement of the water tower,
Goderich will receive $65,000 for
zebra mussel control. Landfill
facilities will be upgraded at Wing
ham and in Howick and Stanley
townships. These projects plus
others in Ashfield and Tuckersmith
will be funded by the Ministry of
the Environment.
Recreational facilities will be
upgraded through grants from the
Ministry of Tourism and Recrea
tion. East Wawanosh will receive
$117,600 for the Belgrave Arena.
Goderich will receive $57,867 for an
elevator and washrooms at the
arena. Funds for lights and fencing
at Dungannon, lights at the pool at
Vanastra and lighting at the Steph
en arena will be provided under the
program. Renovations at the Kirk-
ton-Woodham Community Centre
will also be funded.
More than $2 million has been
allocated for renovations at Huron
Industrial Park at Centralia. Nor
man Jamison who is Parliamentary
Assistant to the Minister of Indus
try. Trade and Technology said,
"This capital project will translate
into immediate benefits for the
community, through short-term job
creation and new work for local
contractors and suppliers.
Mr. Klopp said, "The ARP
funding is certainly good news for
this community. The economy of
this area has been hard hit by the
recent recession."
Town and Country Homemakers
is holding a lottery on a new car to
raise money for the contingency
fund.
In 1990, Town and Country
Homemakers spent approximately
$64,000 to subsidize its programs
for about 2,000 clients. The projec
ted cost for this year is estimated to
rise to $73,000. A number of
fundraising campaigns have been
implemented to meet this need,
and it is hoped that this raffle will
offset the costs incurred.
Registered as a Canadian charity
in 1978, Town and Country Home
makers is a non-profit health and
social service agency. For those in
need of its services, Homemakers
assist with personal care, house
keeping, laundry, shopping and
meal preparation. They also pro
vide home support, offer senior’s
dining and community programs,
help with home and yard mainten
ance. They also offer support
through telephone reassurance,
visits and in two areas of the county
support the Meals-on-Wheels pro
gram.
Each year people purchase thou
sands of homemaking hours direct
Letter to the Editor
Klopp talks on topics
THE EDITOR,
The Legislature is now back in
session and I spend most of the
week in Toronto. During the recess
I have had the opportunity to meet
and talk with many people in the
county. Concern has been express
ed in the media that the govern
ment is not acting quickly enough.
My wish is to consult first then act.
To be effective a program must
work at the grassroots level. The
anti-recession program is action.
Money is being directed to where
local government sees the need.
This will help solve some local
needs and provide work. Repairing
aging facilities before they need to
be replaced makes good sense.
Doing repairs to school roofs,
upgrading sewage works, and fix
ing roads will provide local con
struction jobs. This will help the
entire local economy not only the
contractors.
The new Agriculture office has
been long overdue. Agriculture is
the key business in Huron County
yet there has not been an adequate
bujlding for the work done by the
OMAF staff. Hopefully, the new
building will increase public aware
ness of agriculture.
Bd. wants a better system
The Ontario Egg Producers’
Marketing Board is making chan
ges for the better. That was the
message at the Egg Board’s 26th
annual meeting. Chairman Gerald
Morden told an audience of over
400 egg producers and industry
representatives, that the Ontario
Board has taken important steps
over the past year to improve the
marketing and production of eggs
in Ontario. "And we are working
towards changes in the coming
months that will make even further
improvements.”
A streamlining of administrative
producers and changes to quota
policies which reflect the realities
of the current market, plus a
proactive and successful adverti
sing campaign, and a closer work
ing relationship with all of the
many stake-holders in the Ontario
egg business were listed as some of
ly from Town and Country Home
makers in order to remain living in
their home. Government programs
purchase, on behalf of consumers,
who meet the criteria, a high
percentage of the hours home-
makers carry out weekly in 600
Huron homes. However, these are
limited and many often need to
purchase additional hours of ser
vice. Others may not qualify for
government help and must pay
directly for the service.
The home support services,
which are partially funded by the
province, are subsidized by Town
and Country and are carried out by
its staff of 170 trained homemakers
and home support workers and 400
volunteers. There is supervised
support from professional health
and social services.
Many can not pay the full cost, so
it is necessary for Town and
Country to raise funds over and
above their normal revenue to meet
these costs. Town and Country is
trying to provide quality service to
its clients and hopes to be able to
continue to keep "a good home
going.”
Many of you have expressed
concern about the proposed Envir
onmental Bill of Rights. It was a big
topic at the Huron Federation of
Agriculture dinner on March 16.
There is fear that normal farming
practises might be curbed or
subject to frivolous lawsuits. Farm
ers operate in full public view and
thus feel more vulnerable to com
plaints. The Minister of Agricul
ture and I are well aware of these
concerns and they will not be
ignored. The proposed Bill will be
examined closely by us.
Rural problems are not being
ignored. I am a member of the
Rural Advisory committee which is
composed of two dozen NDP
MPP’s. The aim is to bring rural
and farm issues to the attention of
the Premier and Cabinet.
Reconstruction of Highway 4
between Blyth and Belgrave is
proceeding under the Ministry of
Transport’s five-year program.
Some design work has been com
pleted. The next stage of work will
be announced by the Minister
when the year’s program is an
nounced in the coming months.
PAUL KLOPP
MPP, HURON
the Board’s achievements over the
past year. Morden explained that
"the aim of these efforts has been
to operate the Ontario Egg Board in
a more business-like manner and to
improve the marketing system for
eggs so it is not only viable but also
acceptable to producers, con
sumers, and government alike.”
While the Board is proud of these
accomplishments, he told the meet
ing "we can not and must not stop
there.”
Morden pointed out that the
supply management marketing
system in general and the egg
system in particular is facing
increasing criticism and growing
pressures for change. "These criti
cisms and pressures are not only
coming from those outside our
industry, nor are they entirely,
unfounded or unreasonable."
