Despite the Ontario government's presently per - ..missive ;attitude toward restructuring, :- tort .past experiences one 'can be, assured thatu.the movo•is-toward change El& iftAggressive municipal. councillors don't accept the challenge, the job ,wili be done for them That is the style of the Davis govern- merit. The game is to lull the people into • e sense of non -urgency, then .hit them with.: arr'�edit -which proves, there, was. urgency after all: That's one way to' in- sure that government .approvedmethods are -used. After all, the government has 'left the choice"with the people. It isn't government's fault then, if the people, don't respond voluntarily. " Huron County. �citizens must bb satisfied that county council has opted to do °the study themselves. Who -knows Huron. . Gounty better than. the people who live here?
