This corner is usually one of few yokes crying in t h e
wilderness in support of farmers.
' In fa 1, I have been :chastized on a number oroccasions
for -supporting farmers "'even, whenthey are wrong in their
requests. I make no apologies about my affinity for farm- '
ers. They have been left sucking,the hind. teat too long in
the economic pressures of thi's country.
But sometimes they are wrong.
They cannot have it both ways. Agriculturalists are the
first to scream load -and long about good farmland beigg
gobbled up.by towns and cities, by power corridors and ex-
pressway,9, by rows and rows of ticky-tacky houses and as-
phalt-ct&ered plazas and shopping centres: ..
I support them in this hue and cry. ,Only about five or six
per cent of•this great land mass called Canada is fit for agii-
' cultture and the preservation of prime farm land should be,
at the top of the list for forward -thinking people. . '
i� But let any developerr•come along with his pockets jin-
gling and most farmers are wait{ at the, farm' gats for
H them with their hands out.
Bill Tifompson is an outspoken planner. He is presently
chief planner for the Regional Municipality of Waterloo,
in Ontario that has distinct problems for tanners
Each case must/be dealt with on its own merits, especially
when o farmer wants a glee of land on which to retire or a
farrher's son or daughter wa is a piece of land on the home
farm to build upon, especially-t�f someone in the new home
is going to help on the farm,
But too often the sale to a son -or a father is just an excuse
to build in the country' Which is just what brings about the
measles development along rural roads and exactly what
Mr. Thompson was talking'about.
So, farmers cannot have it both ways. Either they are sin-
cere. in their cries about presbrvigg farm land or they are -
hypocrites. Any hypocrisy is not•'needed in farm circles
these days.
To be brutally frank, I do not know what 1 would do if
someone came .along tomorrow and offered me a big pile of
cash for my couple of acres in the country: At the moment,
we are producing only one crop of poor hay annually to feed
our horses so the land would not betaken out of production.
But it would bring about that measles development de,
plored by Mr. Thompson.
And I,.do,not believe that 26 acres of arable land is being'
lost every hour.of every day throughout every year, the cry
pu� forth by the New Democrats during the recent provin-
