The Minister of Agriculture, when introducing the Resolutions stated that one of the major problems of the Canadian Dairy Industry is the. cyclical nature' of production pat- terns and with it price instability. The cycles have common character istics - a period of high,production coupled .with falling prices then a period of re -adjustment which.often results in excessive curtailment of production and subsequent high prices. • Under .our:constitution the••respon- sibility For agricultural production .and 'for ,marketing contro1s°lies'., largely with the province. Howeve When agricultural commoditites' cross inter provincial or internation 41 boundaries, Federal authority is involved.. Bill C 205 will estab r1'ish, a Cornmisssion with 'a, primary function of co-ordinating such marketing matters, . . 'This Commission will also have authority to administer the Dairy' Support Program, to engage' in 'the•. promotion of dairy .products and in general to take such action as will result` in 'the development of a dairy industry best suited.to thea• needs of the country. The Commission will consist of three.. •Members appointed by the •Gov ernor in Council and ' will have available the services of a' consultative'Committee of nine Members. • It i the intention. that •Members will be reP resentative of. the various segments ,of the dairy industry in Canada. • • ' Although the .Minister' stated that the duties of the Commission are to act in an advisory capacity and in liaison with provincial.

Hansard : saying that it isnot possible at this time toindicate otherthan in a ' broad way the manner in wht,ch the Commission will operate, The Dairy Industry is a complex and ever changing entity and with these changes different 'approaches, will: doubtless be needed on the part of the- Comm.issiOn. One of ,the purposes of the legislation W. ' the .recognition of'the'Canadian Dairy Industry. Conference which. recommended that a co-ordinating and advisory committee called Canadian Dairy Advisory,. Comm- ittee be.established with repres- entation from the various groups. A basic .recornmendation.was that a National dairy authority. be.' developed.. Its objects,' I believe, were that recommendations were.. '** IM R to come from the industry for the benefit of the primary producers,. Section 11 of, the Bill states that in exercising itspowers under this Act or --the regulations in relation to,the importation or exportation 'of any dairy product the Commiss- ion shall comply with any direct- ions from time to time given to it by the, Governor in Council .or the Minister. A nother duty of the Commission is the administering of funds'pro- vided by the Stabilization Board.' It is a recognized fact that with: the delays which have been exper- ienced in the past in spbsidy pay- , ments that there would only, be less. efficiency in the establishment ,of one more Department.

As a nation •half;frozen; after a long; weary winter and a.. told, wetspring, we still greet: it with rapture and incredulity It is the celebration' of the. season . that has •been transformed. Thirty years ago, summer was a • quiet . time. The pace Was lei- surely.. The- -mood was. • oneof peace.: Today, it's just the oppo- site. It is the noisiest. time of the year, the pace is frantic, and the mood is jazzy. In those days; summer. •pleas uses, for the working staff, were simple.. And for couple of good reasons. He worked nine or 10 hours •a day; and he didn't have any' money. When he got home,' he was • • whacked. After supper, he Might water the lawn, or " do ' a little, .veeding, 'or just sit on the front porch until dark• • Occa , signally, • he'd take. in • a ball am or ma b e • •drive the'fam- game, Ye;f . .: ily • around for a while, and 'buy everybody an ice-cream .cone. •When his holidays rolled around; •he didn't do 'much. Put. tered• around, paintingthe trim on the hoarse, or worked in the garden: Maybe took the family to visit relatives for a`few days. In those days, summer cot- tages, and power boats, and re- sort hotels and golf were for the .. wealthy. ' . '• What a 'difference . today! .The working stiff gets home, and his day 'has lust .begun: He has a golf date. Or the family Wants' to' go out in the boat. Or the kids demand he drive them for a swim. Or his wife has asked somebody over for drinks and a barbecue and he `must don the apron and get to work. n When his. holidays come around; the pate. triples, No •put- tering about the house for hint. No sitting i,n the back yard, un- der a shade tree;. and restoring himself: ' . it doesn't matter what has been planned for his holidays. Whether it'sa mad motor trip What's happened in three dec- ades? Cars, affluence, desirefor status, and .women. • : Cars, . •. and the subsequent 'highways to'accommodate. them, have opened up the hinterland. Beach . areas that. used ' to . be quiet, little summer settlements at the end of .a rugged gravel • . road . are now roaring, raucous neon.jungles by night, flesh strips and screaming motors by day. Virgin lakes, not long ago ac- cessible- only bycanoe and por- tage, are now laid bare by de- velopers, and the bulldozers are at •work, and; everybody wants to own\ his own plot, though prices : have sky -rocketed, Affluence, .combined with the never -never -land of the .finance company, has made its inroads. Today; theworking man owns his owncottage, or cruiser, and belongs to the golf club. The big resorts have been taken over by the moderately well-to-do. The Crich, in disgust, fly to Europe;• • The• eternal, pursuit of status in our society. ' has played its part. If that crumb .next' door. can afford .a cottage for two wreeks; Joe can afford a flight to the West .Coast, If he has' q 50 horse . motor, Joe needs •a . 75- horse. If his 'kids are going to camp for . two weeks, Joe's are going for the. whole of August. And women? Ah,how they have helped change the• face of Canada's summer! They used to 'be content to stay home, look after their gardens and putup preserves :in the summer. They used to be happy with a' family picnic on Sundays. They used to enjoy making a pitcher of cold '' lemonade• on a hot' summer eve- ning, .and bringing it out to the porch. . Now they want a cottage £or two months, or, a new and big- ger boat, or a second car, plus a membership at the golf. club, plus a new patio, plus a couple' of weeks at a swank resort. It's no wonder poor loe is a whimpering shell at the end of the summer, exhausted, broke and frazzled. E,. .01 id•A.:•'i,h _.a�:a�.ar.r,••r:.n. 7
