He went on to question the plan of the Task Force and the serious effect it would have on all farmers. He wished that more farmers had the opportunity to read the book on The Task Force Plan. Another threat to the progress of farmers is Bill C 176, Mr. Miller said. It is being urged to legislate it as quick as possible with the processor and the consumer interests first and the producer, the farmer, of the least concern to them, Manitoba farmers have launched a program of withholding of municipal taxes, as the NFU battle against the present method of financing education continues to spread across Canada. Leading a delegation last week, Walter Miller, Vice President of the National Farmers Union and Phil Schwarz, Regional Co- ordinator for Region 5, (Manitoba) met with two cabinet ministers of the Manitoba government, the Hon. Samuel Uskiw, Minister of Agriculture, and the Hon. Howard R. Pawley, Minister of Municipal Affairs, and placed the NFU position on this matter before them. The NFU has argued, since commencing this project in Ontario, in the fall of 1969, that education tax should be related to one's ability to pay and not on the amount of property they pay tax on. The NFU, in attempting to get Mr. Miller outlined the necessary changes that would have to be made in Bill C1.76. Therefore it is a choice of the N.F.U. policy statement or the enforcement of the Task Force Plan. The wealth of farm production is gradually being transferred to already wealthy multi-national corporations. The N.F,U. has the power to implement their farm policy with the support of its members plus increased membership in the N.F.U. a complete change in the tax structure asked the Manitoba government in the meantime, to reduce the inequities now, by refunding 40 percent of the 1970 taxes. Walter Miller said following the meeting that "Provincial governments' fear of raising this additional money from income tax seems to be that for one province to apply it would en- courage industry or business to locate in some other part of Canada." "This," he said, " is why the restructuring must be on a national basis." With both Ontario and Manitoba farmers withholding taxes, and interest and support spreading throughout other regions, the NFU, following a directive from its December convention is optimistic that considerable headway can be made this year." He said it was hoped that politicians at every level, in every part of Canada would undertake to cooperate in bringing an end to the unfair, discriminatory method of raising money to finance education. Mr. Miller said Ontario NFU members voted at their regional meeting to continue withholding municipal taxes, in an attempt to have a commitment from the Ontario government that restructuring of the education tax system would be undertaken.
