Tuckersmith Reeve Bill
Camochan, recently returned
by acclamation, said his next
term will be a challenge
when he gave his "state of
the union" speech to town-
ship ratepayers at the all -can-
didates meeting at Brucefield
United Church last Tuesday
night.
He says the highlight of his
just -completed term was
council's continued delivery
of service with no increase in
the municipal mill rate.
Whether this situation can
continue depends on amalga-
mation negotiations with
neighbours and whatever
Teachers coming to Seaforth
Whatever it is, illegal
strike or political protest,
Huron's disgruntled teach-
ers are coming our way.
From 300 to 400 striking
teachers, representing public
and separate school and
womens' teachers unions,
are scheduled to be in
Seaforth today (Wednesday)
protesting the Ontario gov-
ernment's educational
reforms.
They call themselves the

Huron Education Coalition,
and they had a public infor-
mation session at Seaforth
Branch 156 of the Royal
Canadian Legion on
Monday night.
Their protest march in
downtown Seaforth today
was scheduled from 8 a.m.
until 3 p.m., the same sort of
thing they've been doing
mostly in Exeter around
MPP Helen Jobt4 s office
lately.
Spokesman Terry Craig
said Friday that teachers
don't feel they are getting
their message across on the
government's education -
reform Bill 160, and people
need proper information to
make the right decision.
"Teachers are behind our
union leaders," the well-
known local educator from
St. Anne's Catholic
Secondary School in
Clinton says. "If we
weren't, we wouldn't be out
here."
Teachers across the
province haven't been in
schools for the past two
weeks, although the vast
majority of them are under
contract.
`SMOKE WILL CLEAR'
The reeve said Tuckersmith
stands to lose about $342,000
in grants from the province
this year. He said the town-
ship's reserve now stands at
about $900,000, and this fig-
ure has risen by somewhere
between $195,000 and
$200,000 since the last local
elections.
"Sooner or later the smoke
will clear but in the interim
it's going to be a challenge,"
he said.
In many cases, when it
comes to government pro-
grams "they (the province)
get the saying and we get the
paying," he commented.
