accompanied by a 'certificate

area where the Progressive Vert-

Root crops horseradish, car-

come into the country, unless
they're coming from the U.S.

To help make travellers aware
of the plant import regulations,
Agriculture Canada has produced
explanatory pamphlets to be is-

REPORT FROM
QUEEN'S PARK
BY MURRAY GAUNT
M.P.P. HURON - BRUCE -
The Ontario Medical Associa-
tion misrepresented scientific
evidence in ,an attempt to 'prove
optometrists should not be allowed
to administer diagnostic drugs,
Albert Roy - Liberal Health
Critic, said this week.
Mr. Roy said he was appalled
that the medical association would
resort to misrepresentation and
scare tactics to keep diagnostic
drugs, solely in the domain Of eye
doctors.
He explained that last month
the association sent a brief to all
Members of the Legislature
attempting to show that optical
anesthetics and dilating drugs
could have serious side effects
and that optothetrists should not be
allowed to use them.
Mr. Roy, P P . for Ottawa
East, said there is overwhelming
evidence that optometrists, with
the proper care, can use diagnos -
tic drugs in the same way as eye
doctors.

again.
The cost Of the experiment has
increased from the estirnated.$16
to over $25 million and that is ex-
cluding the main station, site

costs.
The Goverhment has argued
that inflation is the villain. The
opposition has rejected that by
saying , the cost of building the
North Yonge Subway increased
only by 20% in eight years while
the Krauss-Maffei experiment has
increased 100% in-12 months in re-
gard to the civil engineering
costs alone.

Following my weekly report on
the 11th April I haVe received a
number of inquiries about the
guaranteed annual income system
as it applies to seniorcitizens,
which comes into effect on July
1st, 1974.
By way of clarification I submit
the folloWing,example. A single,
old age pensioner who has no out-
side income receives a maximum
old age security and guaranteed
income supplement of $191.06
will receive from the Province
$25.61 per month to bring the
pension total to $216.67. The
Province is guaranteeing an in-
come of $216.67 per month to
each single pensioner. 'If the out-
side income, plus the old age
security and guaranteed income
supplement equal, or exceed,
$216.67 then the Province will
not make any further payment.
1-lowever, if those three sources
of income do not exceed $216.67
.the ProvinCe will make up the
difference. To calculate a
pensioner couple's new "guaran-
teed income the same procedure
as set out above is followed.
Their new guaranteed, income is
$433.33 per month. At the
moment, a couple that have no
outside ,income receive a maxi-
mum old age security pension plus
the , guaranteed income supple-
ment of $364.49. To this will
be added $68,84 to make the
$433.33. As long as, the outside
income, plus the O.A.S. and the
G.I.S. do not exceed $433.33 the
PrOvince will make up the differ-
ence to that point,
