Calls hydro rate hike outrageous "A 5,7% increase in rural hydro rates is outrageous", said Peter Hannam, President of the Ontario Pederation of Agriculture, in response to the new Ontario Hydro rate struc- ture going into effect on January 1, 1978. Hannam added, "Urban and in- dustrial rates are already much lower. The increase in their rates is estimated at under 5% and so the gap will become wider, "This is nothing but blantent discrimination against the farmer and the small town resi- dent. The cities and the big in- dustrial users have big lobbies and lots of political clout. On- tario Hydro gives in to them and penalizes rural people. "If we need a hydro rate in- crease, so be it. But it should apply to everyone equally. On- tario Hydro is a public utility and it should act in the public in- terest. It should not just give in to the big lobbies. "What makes this so ex- asperating is that there is no forum for reviewing these rates. This is the only segment of socie- ty for which such a review forum does not exist and so Ontario Hydro increases are unilateral decrees, "I hope rural people will not take this arrogant and insensitive way of doing business lying down. Farmers and small town people should let their M.P.P.'s know what they think about this unfair treatment", concluded Hannam. Huron-Perth Presbytery of the United Church of Canada met in the United Church at Grand Bend on Tuesday, November 22 with chairman Rev, John Oestereicher of Clinton in the chair. A highlight of the meeting was the reception 'of one candidate and one intended candidate for the ministry of the United Church. The candidate is Mr. Robert Wittmer who has been serving with his wife in Japan. He is now a student at Emmanual College in Toronto. The intended candidate is Peter Snell, Mr. Snell is a mature person with experience as a teacher. He is the son of the Rev. Harold Snell of Exeter and is now attending Western University. The Presbytery heard the Rev. Raoul Quammie of Florence, Ontario speak about the work of the church in the Caribbean. Mr. Quammie is himself from that area. He pointed out that the United Church purpose in world mission is "to share in Christ Jesus" and he continued that we have no mission in tradional terms now, He was referring to the fact that in all instances people are sent by the United Church in response to requests from the local areas and they are to work with and often under . the guidance of the local people. Mr, Quammie gave a review of. the history of the islands of the' Caribbean , and the diverse cultures and religious traditions there. The United Church is in- volved in Haiti, Jamaica, Trinidad and Cayman Island. He pointed out that the Church in the Caribbean is growing and the general trend is quite different from the experiences in North America where many churches are having some struggles. The Presbytery heard a report from the seminar on "New directions for the rural church" which was held in Cedar Glenn November 7th - 9th. The attitude was one of great enthusiasm and a new range of possibilities for the churches of small mem- bership. Among the possibilities were the clustering of small churches with some shared leadership; "tent maker" ministry - in which the minister works part time at a secular occupation; and the additional Delegates to the annual con- vention of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture approved in principle a proposed levy plan which would require all farmers in the Province to support the farm organization of their choice. This proposal, which would require an amendment to the Municipal Act, would. have each Municipality collect the levy, based on assessment value of the farm, when they collect the year's property tax. There would be a suggested minimum of $15.00 and a suggested maximum of $100, so that an undue burden would not be put on anyone. As an example, if the levy were set at Va mill, on a 100 acre faun with a $400/acre assessment, the amount raised would be $20. Mery Smith, a Huron County delegate, said that at present only one-third of Ontario farmers now belong to O.F.A. and each pays an annual membership fee of $35.00. Therefore, less than half ' of Ontario farmers con- tribute to the support of any farm organization, yet everyone reaps the benefits. If all farmers in Ontario contribute to a farm organization (of their choice), then agriculture would have a much stronger voice. More ef- fective lobbying could take place with the provincial and federal governments. Gerry Fortune, Regional Director for N. E. Huron said that .more money is needed LO do a good job for farmers, more than can he raised by .yearly membership drives. The staff of O.F,A. could be better employed by working for far- mers, than conducting mem- bership drive. anumnituutininenunni.mimMiisiMila ADAMS ▪ Heating & Cooling • Heating Systems INSTALLED, MODERNIZED and MAINTAINED F. • General Sheet Metal Work ▪ • Air Conditioning! • Humidifiers ;----, • Ventilation ..1 235-2187 .„..-.: ii 133 Huron St„ East, Exeter it. 5nninninnimionininnininniminnowE drive for M&S at the time of their White Gift Service.
