Dairy producers were granted a 504 per hundredweight increase in the price of milk which amounted to 1 1/3 cents per quart. The dairies, maintaining that their costs have risem since their last increase on January 1st, respOnded by raising the price of milk to the 'consuiner by two to three cents a quart. Moat prices reached an all time high and apparently provoked the consumers into boycotting meat products at the retail level. Bell Canada's price 'increases sanc- tioned by the Canadian Transport Commission, met with disap- proval by other segments of so- ciety and enacted opposition members into calling on the Government to use the powers it has under the law to rescind the decision of the Canadian Trans- port Commission. In connection with food costs, I listened to comments by con- sumers about the rising prices for which the farmer was being blamed and I asked the Minister of Agriculture in the Legisla- tures question and answer period, if he would assume the responsi- bilities of his ministry and use every means possible to dissem- inate information to the public revealing the farmers cost of production. I indicated to him it was time consumers realized that the farmer was barely making a satisfactory standard or living even at the prices he receives today for his products, for the price which he must pay for grains and more particularly for protein supplements has more than doubled in the last' six months. In all 'due respect to the Mini- ster of Agriculture and Food, I. was disappointed with his answer for it did not pertain to my ques-' tion in any way. Rather he con- dem led the Federal Government for 'allov/ing the importation of beef' from U.S.A. into Canada at a time when consumer boycotts were having a very definite effect on meat prices in the States. He also condernaed the Federal Gov- ernment fore allowing beef which har;V§in f erdiethylVilbeStral to WiinpartONrortlitie States into dabada:. particularly when the use of ;such a drug was banned in Canada. I agree with Mr. Stewart on both matters, but 'I was disgruntled with his evasive answer of my original question. HOwever, this is supposedly pol- ished politics and when given the chance, you simply reword your question, and hope for a more suitable reply. Premier Davis also showed his concern about rising prices, and spent most of the week in ,Alberta attempting to prevent a rapid escalationof energy costs which inevitably would hurt many of Ontario's industries. He pro- ' posed a National Conference on energy involving Ottawa and the Provincial GovernMent, but it doe't appear that he convinced Alberta Premier, Peter Lougheed. Meanwhile back on the home front, Opposition pressure on the Health M1nister, Dr. Potter, continued, and . as a result the Minister is introducing programs to bring the health costs under control.. He plans to cut the administrative role df his tie- partrpents medical doctors and rely more heavily on professional adrpinistrators. He outlined two ministry groups which will divide medical and administrative res- ponsibilities. The Health Stand- ards Group would be responsible for the development of criteria and guidelines for the health care program, the evaluation of ser- vices, and the provision of ad- visory and technical services. . The Health Services Group will be responsible for the day- to-day administration of services provided by the ministry. Minis- • try personnel with medical quali- fications will not be involved with ongoing administration, .for ac- cording to Dr. Potter, doctors are poor administrators. Dr. Potter, under constant pressure by Rob on and Stephen Le s, studied the test figures' a liable on the cos of OHIP an now realizes that t medicare program has been abuse and has been bilked for untol millions by doctors. As a r the Minister of Health has d - vised a form which will be mailed out and which must be filled out outlining the services rendered and the date and amount billed and paid. As speeches in response to the speech from the throne con .- tinued, Dr. Morton Shulman, N. D.P. member of the Ontario Leg- islature 'said that a Mafia ring 'operates in Toronto and provides illegd1 iminigrants 'for work in the .43/4,7 Fork construction indus- try. An ihvestfgation has started, to determine whether such a Mafia ring is centred in Toronto and is smuggling young Italian men into the U.S.- Eddie Sargeant, Liberal M.P.P.,put the government under attack and charged them with misusing the tax payers money. He even threatened to get a court order, if necessary, to find out how Ontario Cabinet Ministers have been using Government air- craft. He accused the government Of foul play in connection with the construction of the building for the workmen Compensation Board (Fidinam Report) and indi- cated this was only one of the many such under-the-tableprac- tices that the Government has been using to replenish its cof- fers. Sargeant informed the Government that the Opposition would continue to apply pressure until the members• became em- barrassed by their own arro- gance and malfunctions, and some day realize that their constituents want accountability brought back to Government. Several ammendmants to bills passed the third reading and re- ceived Royal As sent by the Lieutenant Governor. This is rather ,an interesting traditional practice •whereby the Lieutenant Governor is ushered into the Chambers and seated in the speakers chair. Here he listens to the speaker confirm the ,pass- leg of the bills voted on pre- viously by the members of the House after the third reading, The Lieutenant Governor gives his consent, leaves the Chambers, and the bills are proclaimed and ready to be gazetted.
