He moved his wife and three children to Manitouwadge, a min. ing and logging town of 24.000 that was well isolated, stuck as it was north of Lake Superior halfway between the larger centres of Thunder Bay and Sault Ste Marie. It took 4 1/4 hours to drive to either one and an hour to get to the small- er towns of Marathon on the west and White River on the east. For two years he enjoyed this job in the wilds of northern Ontario until there was a change in manage- ment that brought in a new person- nel manager.

In the meantime, Morgan's unemployment insurance payments stopped after 10 months and, since then, "it's been a struggle" to meet the expenses entailed in running a household with three teenaged chil- dren in it. His income, combined with that of his wife, Elsie, who works part-time as a health care aide, comes to a little over $1,000 a month. That includes a small social assistance stipend, he said.
