Grant Crawford Director of lllf11115111111511liil This is 11111 of those questions which Institute of Local Government at Quppnsllltttl 1111121 lls lli1l1tl lt popped up lLillll tib Council and Councillor in Ontario he stat es The only powers which council may legally exercise are those which are given to the municipal corporation by the legisla ture and it has no authority to exercise powers which have not been so given There has been some suggestion that when the council goes into committee of the whole that such meetings are not open to the public But this procedure is not followed to exclude the public but rather to permit member to speak more than once on any issue The same procedure is followed in oth er townshand cities in Ontario in Simcoc County Council in the Ontario Legislature and in the House of Commons at Ottawa The Simcoc County Council committee of the whole discussions are open to the public and the Ontario Legislature com mittee of the whole discussions are open to the public Discussions in the House of Com mons committee of the whole are not only open to the public they are officially record ed in Hansard Committee of the whole discussions in other cities and towns in Ontario are open to the public It is the custom in some centres for the ratepayers to attend council sessions just as naturally as they would visit the lib rary or theatre Without doubt there are special occasions when it might be necessary for the Town Council ofBarrie to hold caucus to discuss some particular matter But the ratepayers Would like to feel free commend the regular Monday night meetings of the council There are subjects which bring about discussion that would be interesting and enlightening to the citizens as whole Many of the tax payers wouldappreciate being taken into the confidence of the council Early thisyear special request was made by one organization seeking permission to have certain of their officials attend the tings The request was not con clusively answeredby council But such re questshould not be necessary Every citizen of Barrie should be permitted to attend the Monday night council sessions without being asked to leave as soou asthe discussion is 1111111 day 111 University In his volume The Municipal discussion some 11f 111 were Marlin about 1111in Lil111flllt1lt And now that 1111 cam pi11 suisoii is

What are the facts it is true of course that many people who receive benefits from government pro grams or who come to private social agencies for 111131 are 1Lt11c time unable to carry on 11111110 Home of them are widows or orphans some are 11111 or blind or disabled others are 11110111ploycd and in time 111 employment didnt Cillll sufficient to lay anything by for rainy day All of them are dependent but this surely provides no ground 111 the argument that children apart they relish 1111 1111111 11f being supported by outside sources lndecd the extent to which the exact opposite is true may be liscovcrediby 111y one who makes enquiry of good casework agency At the some time it must be admitted that part 111 the group dealt with by social workers does con Slst of persons 11111111111111ordinalily be ltgilldttlr as lmprovidcnt and irresponsible They are small percentage of the total group but 111p111lic11111r times notably in depression their 1111111b1 may be 1111 and sale estimate would be an sidcrable What are we to say of such pcoplc For one thing we need to recognize that they too are the victims of circtm1siance It is not through wil Janitor scrv1cc fulncss usually that folks become l12vor shiftless nor through choice that they are dependent on oth ers Everyone would like to bc selfconfident and resourceful but sometimes life works out 111 such way that there isvno opportunity for these qualities to develop either that or they are gradually crush ed out under the pressure of worries frustrations or economic need We need to remind ourselves that what wo so readily labellaziness and irresponsibility is to large extent an expression of discouragement and defeat Moreover the fundamental aim of social work is to restore even such persons so far as pos sible to condition of selfrespect and independence It is amazing in how many cases often hopeless 11 the beginning the objective is finally achieved Likely as not discussion will veer to what is too much security which is 11 limiter of opinion But the main argument has been won Wherever the security line is drawn no one can seriously main lly lixcciiliie 11111111111 t11111l1111 lrlfulc L1111111l1

becoming constantly more intense This raises an etaions question could Ont ario have got the priorities necessary to proceed then with big project like Des Joachlms Like so much of the Hydro story the answer is not clearcut Hydro projects in general stopd at the topeoLQIL laviIas wartime priority lists but eaCH project had to be justified individually Thejirnportant fact is that at no time did Ontario Hydro make any specific application for priorities for Des oachims Why was not application made Was it because immediate wardemands seemed more urgent Was it becauseIof political controversy over the developI mentuftheOttawa river was it because officials thought there wusIlikelIy to be postwar depression Allthese considerations had weight No one today can say clearlywhich was the more implortant fac tor But th liver wasbeginning toturn in our favor by 1944 And Hydrofs longterm vulnerability was well kilowii yet theaqtuai contracts for Des Joach ims were not placed until
