Mr. Brunelle refused to say whether families on welfare or mothers' allowance would receive reduced government assistance to eliminate the increase. He also told the Legialature that the ,Government plans to in- crease benefits on January 1st, to those under 65 years of age and "in need" such as disabled people. It will help reduce inequities in the current system of welfare benefits, he said, John White, Minister of Treasury, economics and Governmental Affairs, told the Legislature that Ontario is preparing plans to scale down the land planning area for the proposed North Pickering com- munity by as much as 40 per- cent, if Ottawa decides to scrap the new International Airport proposed for the site. About 25,000 acres were originally designated but the Urban Plan- ning Consultants are working on alternatives to accom- modate a cut-off of up to 10,000 acres from the area. Ontario has decided that because the economy is buoyant the Province will not finance its own job creating programs to ease unemployment this winter. Treasurer John White told the House that predictions are that unemployment this winter will level off between 4.5 and 5 per- cent of the labour force com- pared with almost 7 percent last winter. If economic con- ditions deteriorate the Govern- ment is ready to step in with job creating incentives, Mr. White said. Federal programs will still be available to On- tario Municipalities, Ontario is spending an estimated $300,000.00 to adver- tise the Government's Transit program. The large adver- tisements stress that the pegrare„rp,ms a choice for everyone. It discusses the, types of transit systems, the merits of staggered work hours and sub- sidies that are available to Municipalities to encourage modern transit, Gordon Car- ton, Minister of Transportation and Communications told the Legislature that the purpose of the advertising campaign is to let the people know just what is happening in connection with Government finance and sub- sidized transit. During the discussion of the estimates • of the Ministry of Community and Social Ser- vices, Ian Deans, NDP, Went- worth charged that the Ontario Government's Social policy is driving some women to prestitution, He told Rene Brunelle, Community and Social Services Minister, that immediate measures are required to increase financial assistance to mothers with dependant children, Ontario Labour Minister, Fern Guindon, told the Legislature that the Govern- ment is considering an increase in the $1.80 an hour minimum wage but refuse to say what it would be. The current minimum wage in Quebec is $2.00 and the proposed minimum wage which will take effect next year in British Columbia is $2.50. Debate opened up on the Hydro report this week with Opposition Leader, Robert Nixon, urging the Ontario Government to expropriate On- tario Hydra's new headquar- ters at the first opportunity, severing all Hydro links with developer Gerard Moog and his Company Canada Square. Mr. Nixon said that Mr. Moog was obviously an attrac- tive person and businessman but he had acted with deceit and misused the friendship of Premier William Davis on his way to winning the lease pur- chase contract for the building. In participating in the debate, Murray Gaunt, MPP Huron Bruce, said that Hydro had shown that it is not the in- fallible monolith everyone had thought it to be. Mr. Gaunt made the point that Hydro wanted a super-duper monumental headquarters and wanted it whatever the cost. They were prepared to do almost anything to get it. Solicitor General John Yaremko, has asked infer a meeting with National Defence Minister James Richardson, to review the effects of the Federal Government's decision to cut in half its support of the Emergency Measures Organization. Ontario now receives a little more than One Million Dollars of Ottawa's three million dollar annual contribution to the Provinces. The decision was based on the fact that EMO is mainly con- cerned with natural disasters rather than a possible nuclear attack and the matter of natural disasters is primarily a Provincial responsibility. Ontario's present con- tribution to EMO is $415,000 with a further $106,000 coming from the Municipalities.
