THE BRUSSELS POST, DECEMBER 9, 1981 A7
Brussels afternoon unit
has Christmas meeting
Farmers must
organize, Gaunt
BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE
The 1980s and 1990s are
the decades of the market
place, former MPP Murray
Gaunt of Wingham told the
Huron County Federation of
Agriculture.
Speaking at the December
meeting in Blyth Mr. Gaunt
said farmers have to orga-
nize, especially in the pro-
duction of red meat. Mr.
Gaunt was a member of the
OFA's emergency task force
and he talked about some of
his impressions he received
from sitting on it.
He said the 1960s and 70s
were geared to production
and improving efficiency.
Farmers have been too busy
producing while others are
reaping the benefits.
He referred to an 1878
federal policy, which stressed
the importance of industry.
Mr. Gaunt said nothing in
production touches the
amount of production time
Canadian farmers put in.
Mr. Gaunt said farmers are
not supported by those who
should be supporting them.
He indicated the 1981 Ontario
budget has only 1.2 per cent
devoted to agriculture. He
compared this to countries in
Europe which devote 75 per
cent of their budgets to
agriculture. He noted Euro-
pean farmgate prices are
double those of Canadian
farmers.
The former MPP expressed
dismay about economic re-
searchers from the University
of Guelph. He said they have
the capacity to fight for
farmers, but a recent' study
giving farmer's weekly salar-
ies, was biased and outdated.
Reciting figures, Mr. Gaunt
said the study showed the
very bottom figure of $174.90
per week.
Telling the federation, that
now is the time to be
effective, he suggested they
talk to "key" government
people. Mr. Gaunt said the
finance minister and the
industry, trade and com-
merce minister have powerful
influence in federal and pro-
vincial governments.
In the business portion of
the meeting, Huron OFA
president Gerry Fortune said
representative of Huron
County Council will be meet-
ing with the directors on Dec.
17 to discuss council's sup-
port of the M1 transmission
line from Bruce Nuclear Pow-
er Development through
Huron County to London.
