Ontario declined by an average of over M.PO per year. Walter Miller, NFU Vice president, who made the pre*, potation ' was accompanied by ether union directors in Ontario, Region. 3. Mr. Miller said that past, and present goverment formulae for farmers have been far from sat-. 1sfactory. Froin the brief he stated, "governments at, both provincial and federal levels must accept responsibility for the loss of realized net income to farmers....a cheap food policy at the farm level has been pursued at both provincial and federal levels. He said the brief urged the Provincial Governm,ent to ,rec- ognize the weakness of provin- cial marketing jurisdictions, and the only effective alternative being the transfer of marketing authority to federal jurisdiction for development of effective nat- ional marketing plans. However, he said, where ade- quate national plans are not avail- able the brief called for Pro- Vincial Crown Marketing Agen- cies to replace present provin- cial marketing boards. "This would remove the myththat pres- ent marketing boards perform a bargaining function, and are pro, ducer-controlled."
