Mr. MacGregor said Thursday night after the results were in, that Mr. Gaunt would resign after this term. Mr. Gaunt said that Mr. NiacGregor 'was probably referring to a conversation the two men had last fall when he said his next term could possibly be his last. Mr. Gaunt said he resisted pressure from- sone of his supporters to change the style of his campaign, Instead he stuck to the basics by mainstreeting and shaking hands. His dampaign was a con- trast to the PC'effort which was geared more to media eitposure. Mr. Gaunt said he didn't want to analyse the PC ••41, . 4; " • • • • • • • • • from page 1 - • during the day and at night," said Sheardown. MacMillan said -he didn't want to appear picky but wanted to point out that he felt he had been misquoted in the story about the commission's attendance at the convention. He said in the tory, it had appeared as though he had said the Canadian vdrsion of the American Waterworks Association was way behind its American counterpart, when he really had said the American association was much larger and the displays at the convention are much more elaborate than any thing in Canada. , Worsen said he didn't feel the commission would make,,a firm decision about the petition's requests at that meeting and said if it could wait until the July meeting, a decision would be made then.

"I didn't expect to win as big as I did," he said. . He termed Mr. MacGregor's campaign aa "intense" and that worried him when the campaign first started. "It was the big blue _machine textbook style ..steMpuign," Mr. Gaunt said of his neareat rival. He said he was sorry that many Conservative iup- porters in the riding believed . he had something to do with the tour of the riding by federal Liberals during the ,campaign. He said he had nothing to do with the tour and regretted the bitterness it caused. As forJhe NDP campaign which included agricultural heavyweights Walter Miller and Gordon Hill, he noted that they didn't help the NDP get much of the rural Votes."'. z "partners • are free em. terprisers. - They feeL no kinship +with the NDP despite the two renowned farm leaders, " Mr. Gaunt said. Mr. Miller and Mr. Hill both ran third in their respective ridings. The election' that vaulted the LiberalS ahead of the NDP by one seat to make them the official opposition proved that Stuart Smith "belongs in the big leagues," Mr. Gaunt said. - Progressive Conservatives were predictably gloomy after their defeat. "That's a tough one;" Mr. MacGregor said. He told his supporters that the election results were an example of democracy. But he said that there are a lot of problems in the riding and the province that people don't understand. People in the riding, especially farmers have 4,1 A )16- „ , ' , ;AA-, 'A' . grievances and 'felt the would rather act in electing a member of the opposition, he said:* About the minority goernment the province elected,. he said that the "dimwits" leading the Liberals and NDP would hold up needed,legislation. `This is my last shot," Mr: MacGregor said. • He praised his campaign workers for the hard work they put forth in the high- powered PC effort. "We're in trouble," he said of the province. "I gave it my best shot. You helped me," Mr. MacGregor earlier admitted that. he probably would lose the election. Mr. Zyluk also,felt he had no chance of winning. He said in an interview that towards the end of the campaign he discounted most of the union support at the Bruce Nuclear Power Development. 911,0_,- union even circulatepi ptimphlettp stating that if tlie NDP-- was elected as ,the government, the union members would lose ,•"Eheir r jobs'. Mr. Zyluk said workers at BNPD don't understand NDP energy policies which include use of nuclear power as a bridge until new energy sources are found. Mr. Zyluk is prepared to run again in the next election. if the riding association nominates him. He said one of his biggest problems this time was his lac,k of knowledge about the issues in this ayea and the lack of time he had to prepare. , He added, however, that the campaign taught him a great deal. He would encourage the riding association to' become more active between elec- tions. He praised his campaign Goderich, , „, man hurt, ., A ' k. in mi0,1.ap „, , ,,, A Goderich youtil receiv ,:m, .

He believes that many people voted Liberal instead of NDP because they didn't want to see a Conservative elected. Another issue that hurt his campaign was the $4 per hour minimum wage proposed by the NDP. "It was difficult to defend to small businessmen," he said. Mr. Zyluk predicted the NDP would continue to grow as long as it 'retains good leadership. If Murray Gaunt does nut run in the next election, he said, the riding will be wide open. "An amazing number of people vote for Gaunt the man". 1 • 4,4 -WA .„ 4 4i 10,11" ",7 •1' ^J.ttNtO "SEtliOt • in • THE TOWN OF GODERICII IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE AFORESAID RESOLUTION, 1 Hereby Prociiihn June 19 to 25, 1977 "SENIOR CITIZENS' WEEK" in THE TOWN OF GODERICH 04.(00) Shevifelt Mayor ••••':J We would like to express our appreciation to all those who worked so hard in so many ways.
