"It's our way of saying we're still pro- testing and the fight's not over." Walkerton will be staging a similar pro- test and other activities will be going on all across the province, Mrs. Bailey said. The protest is against provincial plans to phase out the indirect subsidies which have enabled day care centres to keep their fees affordable. Elimination of the subsidy, which is set for the end of this year, would force centres like Wingham and Tuckersmith to virtually double their fees to over $20 per day per child and it is feared that the resulting drop in enrolment would force small centres to close. •O} course you want to keep more 'of the money you work hard tor.
