The recent election has given rise to a vastly different government here in Ontario. Minority government augurs well for greater accountabili- ty and responsibility but all too often such government is short lived. For it to work there has to be give and take, compromise and most impor- tantly co-operation and a desire to govern in the best interests of On- tario. Hopefully this will be the goal of all members. i want to take this opportunity to thank the electorate of Huron - Middlesex for the vote of confidence that I received to represent your in- terests in the Ontario Legislature and 1 offer my assurance that I will con- tinue to work hard for all the people -of this great Riding. It is my intention to once again sub- mit a column to the weekly papers, apprizing my constituents of the hap- penings here at Queen's Park and the concerns which confront the govern- ment for its consideration. One of those concerns which must be immediately addressed is the fu ure of rural Ontario. ''he province is undergoing great change. The recent recession had an impact on every part of the province and every segment of our societ and Times -Advocate. May 22 1985 Page 5 4aei' Plinf Goal of co-operation has left us all in a period of transition Perhaps nowhere has this transt lion been more steeply felt than in rural Ontario. aural conununabes are threatened by increased urbanization and an exodus of young people to the cities. The problems (aced by rural no, Mario multiply and take on a lite of their own. As jobs disappear, young people move to the cities. As young people move out the tax base declines As the tax base declines, tax rates go up and services deteriorates. Rising taxes and deteriorating services drive away industry and eliminate .jobs The vicious cycle is threatening the very existence ot lite in rural not and its contribution to like in this Province. For the last two years 1 have been serving as a member of the rural (ht tario task force and although a varie- ty of issues emerged at the hearings, the concerns of rural representatives disturbed by the threat of their com- munity -survival were united by a common theme: the ( )ntario Govern men( is not listening to rural ( ►ntario. At every hearing without exception the,task force was told over and over that decisions were being made at Queen's Park with 00 effort to consult rural municipalities. There is a sense that rural per:spec- live is not being heard at the cabinet table; rural issues are not getting the priority they deserve Many rural municipal leaders feel the- govern- ment is charting a course -for ()Mario with little regard for the future of rural Ontario.
