"Unless the political parties • are prepared to address themselves • to • the basic environmental issues, they will be perpetrating a gross disservice on the people of Ontario.

Agnew said, in the view of the groups, the basic issues include: Pickering Airport recycling 0 programs, energy programs, noise .. pollution and short- shightedness in planning parks.

"Despite recent expansiono Ontario's parklands continue to be overcrowded Yet, funding for the acquisition of new parks is being slashed year by year. Short-sighted expeshence often prevails in the parks we do have. We still see such totally inappropriate activities as intensive logging in Algonquin and Lake Superior Parks." "There is not a municipality in Ontario that does not have a waste disposal problem. Yet where are real provincial incentives to bolster recycling programs? Where is an end to such ridiculous waste as non- returnable cans and bottles?" "The need for energy conservation is blatantly obvious. Where are the amended building codes, the new transit schemes, the innovative programs, which would ease the problem?" "The province for years, has been waffling on the question of noise control. First it promised regulations. Now it appears to have shunted the problem to the municipalities. We would like to know when this problem is going to be solved by real action." "We have seen some excellent progress here, the Environmental Assessment Act being an example. Yet, major problems must still be overcome.
