JEWELLER
In debating the Bill which
would provide assistance to
Ontario pensioners both
Opposition parties in the Ontario
Legislature pushed vigorously
for $200 guaranteed monthly
incomes for the elderly rather
than an insulting $50,00 Christ-
mas bonus to pensioners.
They said their proposal would
cost $50 million a year which
Ontario could afford. Premier
William Davis said in response to
questions that the Province has
the money and is assessing
possible increases.
Pensioners receive $105.30
from the Federal Government
and up to $73.86 as a supplement.
If the Federal Government paid
half the costs of increased
benefits under the Canada
Assistance Plan,$24 million would
provide a monthly $209.00 pension
for 340,000 pensioners until
March 31 and retroactive to
October 1.
Treasurer John White and Mr.
Brunelle were left with little
Government support to face the
barrage of criticism when the
debate began. Attendance on the
Government side varied between
9 and 20. Mr. Brunelle, Minister
of Community and Social Ser-
vices made no statement. Mr.
White who must answer for
Government spending priorities
in the House had trouble getting
through a fifteen minute
statement because of in-
terruptions. The House sat until
1:30 a.m. Thursday debating this

pockets of publishers at the ex-
pense of the school system are
not the solution to the troubles the
Canadian textbook industry
faces, Premier William Davis
intimated in the Legislature.
Answering questions from the
Opposition and criticism as
voiced by the Independent
Publishers Association, the
Premier defended his response to
the Royal Commission on book
publishing and his recom-
mendation that 02 percent of the
approved school textbooks be
written by Ontario or Canadian
authors.
The Canadian publishers who
depend on school books as their
main profit line are feeling the
pinch of changing trends in
policies and cannot compete with
stronger United States owned
subsidiary firms in Ontario, Mr.
Davis said the Royal Commission
had recommended a special
grant structure for text book
development, but he said if all
that did was put more funds in the
publishers hands with lesser
economies to the school system
then a better solution has to be
found.
Schools no longer rely as
heavily on textbooks and the
Ministry of Education has moved
away from conditional grants.
Students are also taking greater
care of their books and selling
them to following classes.
Attorney General Dalton Bales
introduced legislation this week
to abolish Grand Juries and
shorten the list of exempted
occupations on jurors' lists. He
told the Legislature that the Bills
will not be proceeded with until
next year. Mr, Bales said he
wanted to give Membes of the
Legislature and the public the
opportunity to discuss the
legislation.
One Bill also provides for
modernizing selection
procedures and another provides
for inspection of public in-
stitutions by a panel selected
from the Jury roll to replace the
public inspection function of the
abolished Grand Juries.
Energy Minister Darcy
MCKeough feels Ontario will get
through this winter without any
dislocations in fuel oil supplies
due to the enthusiastic public
response to the Provincial
Government's energy con-
servation campaign. Mr.
McKeough believes that man-
datory allocations at the
wholesale level will have to
remain.
He, said the unrestricted
ddving habits of individual car
owners as they affect energy
conservation are coming under
the scrutiny of Governments. He
hinted there could be government
intervention that could make it,
more practicable to leave cars at
home and /use public transit
services.
Margaret Birch, the Ontario
Minister in charge of Youth
Secretariat said this week, there
was a need for a trilevel advisory
committee on grants to youth.
Previously Mrs. Birch had been
critical of most opportunities for
youth and LIP programs, She
said that these programs had
created numerous "non-jobs" by
postponing the employment
problem and not providing any
work experience.
There has been a $360 million
recalculation of the cost of the
Ontario Government's Western
Parkway Belt and the Niagara
Escarpment Land Acquisition
programs. The Province unveiled
its' plans for the Parkway Belt
and escarpment on June 4,
followed up with planning and
development control legislation,
Part of the plan was to buy about
20 percent of the 200 mile long
escarpment's 1,3 million acres at
a cost when formerly introduced
between $250 to $500 million,
Latest figures put the price at a
firm half a billion dollars.
The Honourable John White
moved first reading of a bill
entitled an Act to amend the Gift
Tax Act. The purpose Of the Gift
TaxAmendment Act is tabling in
legislation the 1973 budget
proposal for a once in a life time
tax free gift for farm property of
$50,000. The objective of the
proposal is to encourage and
facilitate the continued operation
of family farms which form an
important part of the social and
economic fabric of the Province.
Under existing legislation any
person may make individual gifts
of up to $2,000.00 each,tax free, in
any one year with the yearly total
not to exceed $10,000, As designed
the proposed amendments will
allow a gift of up to $50,000 tax
free once in a lifetime of farm
property to a child. For purposes
of the amendment the farm
property is defined to include
land, buildings and machinery
necessary for the operation of the
farm.
In addition the term "once in a
life time" has been defined as
any one taxation year. This
means that the gift may be made
in stages over a taxation year but
any exemption claimed under
this section may apply only in
respect of the amount given in a
taxation year,
In addition succession duty
legislation has been modified to
prevent recapture of the gift in an
estate where the donor has not
survived the gift by more than
five years. The spending
estimates are almost completed
and the session is rapidly
drawing to a close. It appears as
though the house will recess next
week for the Xmas break. The
budget this year for the Province
was the highest in history, over 7
billion dollars.
