HURON-BRUCE This week the Throne Speech Debate hat been the highlight of the session with Opposition Leader Robert Nixo.n taking part. Mr. Nixon 'said there were dev- elopers who, were getting extrem- ely,rich at the expense Of the Ontario taxpayer and. singled out G. W ..• Moog, Presid- ent of Canada Square Corpora• - tion Ltd. "who is know to be a close personal. friend of the Prem7, ier's". In the speech Mr . Nixon was critical of.the inadequacies of a system where builder proposals are accepted as against competit- ive bidding 'with the contract going to the lowest bidder every- thing else being equal. 'Mr. Nixon cited three cases of Companies headed by Mr. Moog working for the Government (1) Canada Square which is building a new $40 million office-com- plex for Ontario Hydro (2) Swiss Granada Holdings which built facilities for the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, and (3) Transamerica Realty which built the TransameriCa Building hold- ing the Ontario Educational Com- munications Authority. Each of these contracts was obtained through the proposal method. • In the case of the Hydro office building which is under construc tion, Mr. Nikon said Hydro was leasing land valued at $7 million to Canada Square for 30 years at . $1 per year. • • "During the construction period of 3 years Canada square,will in- vest, by way of interest on con- struction loans a total of about $6 million. • "In return Canada Square is re- warded by a rental income .of almost $6.1 million every year. for 30 years. That's almost $183 Million in total." Oh medicare Mr. Nixon propos- ed changes. He said that doctors should he allowed to bill the Prov7 ince on a fee-for-service basis but there would'be a yearly limit to the amount the Province, would SEVEN STEPS TO HEALTH 1.

He continued that instead of pla placing all *doctors on salary, the fee-for-service principle of pay- ment would be continued but with constraints.' Premier William 'Davis, also taking part in .the Throne Debate, claimed that Mr. Nixon's figures were not accurate and claimed. Canada Square would make a - net profit of approximately $5 • million out of the Hydro deal. • However, Mr. Nixon issued a rebuttal claiming that many of the expenses of running the new build- ing, would be assumed by Ontario. Hydro and not Canada Square as Mr. Davis had said. The Ontarip Government will finance the world's largest diai-a- bus network in .North York as a , 3 year experiment to lure suburb- anites out of their cars and Onto public transit vehicles.
