Why examine the grassroots? Because they're the basic of so much of the culture and custom that makes us what we are today. Some capsule glimpses of change: farming today is going in two directions .bigger or more specialized. It's changing from labor-inten- sive to capital -intensive with fewer, bigger, more expensive farm operations. On Lake Erie, the fish are getting smaller: about half of the total commercial product- ion today is smelt. On Lake Huron, the catches are becom- ing more exotic: they're landing salmon, but they throw back pickerel. The film crew travelled over much of Western Ontario - Palmerston, Innerkip, Port Dover, Point Edward but specif- y ically the documentary exam- ines two small towns that face an uncertain future... or possibly no future at all. One is in grave danger of disappearing inside its urban neighbor; the other cannot grow until it solves a currently insoluble problem. Both towns grew up because of the railroads and underwent wrenching changes when rail- roading changed. They survived once... can they do it again? The treatment of these places and people and occupations in "Change in the Grassroots, is incisive but affectionate.
