Following extensive study, the Department of Labour in response to , .the , recommendations of ,,the Coirirnittee on manpower,' . is strearaiining its ' apprenticeship programme: Skilledworkers are already in short ' supply and the demand for them can be expected to ';grow considerably as Ontario's industrialeconomy continues to ad= vance at . an increasingly ; acceler- ated pace. An active apprentice- ship programme has been in op- eration for . many years. This •pro- gramme .is going to be extended to meet today's technological, changes and challenges more ade- quately. In . this ' connectionthe government . intends , to extend compulsory certification to the fol- lowing additional'.. trades: ' • Refrigeration and air condition- ang,' electrical,' including domestic, commercial- and industrial; plumb- iing: steam fitting, sheet metal ,and watch .repair. Apprenticeship train- ingprogrammes have been in ex-. istence for a, number of ' years : in the case of all these trades except watch' , repair' • which is , covered under the new programme.. • . : Anyone practising. any one . of these trades at " the time , the new system goes into operation, will • have . two years to obtain his cer- tificate , of qualification: Certifi cites will be granted automat- ically to' those, who are: able . to • show wProof of , experience in ,the e. trade fora period equalling, or ex- ceeding the apprenticeship period prescribed for that particular trade.:...Anyone_ Anyone., unable_to_ resent- ` such proof will. be required' to un- ' dertake an examination to . estab- lish his proficiency in . the trade and qualify for certification. In - this way, with experience and. knowledge' verified either by proof of time or by . testing, everyone al - en ed: incon ,. ,ready Y` engaged. thet ec trades co cerned 'will be able to obtain his certificate . of ualification, In the ;case of ,newcomers • to these trades all' will be required to' go through the ° establishment aprrenticeship training programme ' for . their trade, attending a provincial insti- x. Lute' .of trades for the prescribed' courses.' • This P w.: 'Past week a great deal of. • time, was spent discussing` conser- vation and its - effect on' G water Vineial governments for ,aproject levels' in the province, .Man. of which would take n J .. n another ten years these remarks were' prompted by I to Complete ata cost of $10,00,0,000,.

There. is • no 'doubt that rainfall has, not been as great during the 'last 5' or 6 years and has' therefore con- tributed to -this situation. In the London area over a 54 year period the annual rainfall Was 38.17. • In 1963 therainfallin. the London area was only '21.02 . inches ,or 17,15 inch- es ' below average. The average' rainfall' in London area. for the 4 year period. 'between ;1960 -63 -:-was 29.48 or 8.69 inches below normal. Indeed the ;average rainfall: across the province • has 'been consider- ably below normal in the last 4 .or 5 years: However, ....it . has, been pointed. out that every , inch. of rain- fall . amounts to . 14.5 'million gal- lons 'of water per square ;mile or' approximately 23,000gallons per acre and so the, effect of reduced precipitation. is rather 'obvious.' Theo G vernment apparently feels that' if. the ` cgnservation measures are developed to . the point , 'that most, if not all, .rainfall 'is con- served,' supplies would , be ade- quate to .meet the „need. -For ex - envie, ' in Ontario the annual' -run-' off in. inches. is 11.2 which is equal° to 160 million gallons of 'water per- square mile, 'The `go'vernment has indicated thatif this were conserv- ed through proper conservation methods it would be a . tremendous 'asset to the economy of the•'pro= Vince, This'. undoubtedly. is so but. the catch lies in the length of time it will taketo' develop pr. oiler conservation methods to catch and hold an adequate • amount of this runoff.' This could involve 15-20 or •'even '30 , years, if past exper- ience is' any indication.
