If we didn't take any of the three offers, we were on the street. White River, where most of us wanted to live, was not one of those three choices. Our jobs were declared redundant." The bad news spread quick- ly through town. The munici- pality, then organized only as an Improvement District, was devastated. Rod Olsson, a for- mer Reeve, told me "White River lost a lot more than just 30 or 32 jobs. We had a brain drain, mainly because the majority of the people who worked for the Ministry were young, vibrant, family people who were well educated. And they were involved in every- thing in the community, from their voluntary organizations, churches, everything. And now in' these organizations when you look around for someone, Fred is not there, or Lome is not here....." Bud Wildman is the NDP member of the legislature rep- resenting White River. Back in 1979, when he was in the opposition, he fought against the closure. "I argued that it wasn't appropriate to be mov- ing district staff away from the district to Wawa, and combin- ing the two districts, and then requiring district staff who would be responsible for Ministry programs in the White River area to commute back and forth. I said that that was a waste of money, and I also argued on the basis it wasn't good for the town of White River, that MNR was a major employer in the commu- nity, and to have them moved out would drastically affect the economic prospects of a small community like White River." The Improvement District council took the same view. Tom Bagdon was on that council. He remembers the community organizing a peti- tion, and a brief, which was eventually taken to Toronto, and presented to the Conservative Minister of Natural Resources of the day, James Auld. "We had a sub- committee organized. And we did a study of the MNR situa- tion in White River, and we presented a brief in defence of leaving the station in White River. We also worked on the financial costs that would be involved in moving, and we put up real god case proving that by staying in White River, the Ministry could save funds." But Bagdon said the community's efforts were ignored in Toronto. "We had a hearing with the Minister, however it appeared that minds were made up and the move was a foregone conclu- sion." The last of the MNR staff moved out of the White River buildings by the end of March; 1980. The buildings were then turned over to the province's landlord, the Ministry of Government Services. There they've languished in bureau- cratic limbo, heated and empty, ever since. Next week, I'll explain why. War in prime time continued from page 5 Baghdad bunker at a huge cost of human lives?
