The program will be ad- ministered by the Ontario Farm Machinery Board, which has members representing farmers, manufacturers, dealers, wholesalers and the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The program centres on a certification program. Certification 'of distributors and dealers will be granted by the Farm Machinery Board in accordance with standards which the Board is in the process of im- plementing. Certified companies will offer a new equipment warranty which will meet or exceed the minimum standards set by the Board. They will guarantee to provide repairs and replacement parts in a reasonable time. They will also provide sales agreements with stan- dardized conditions of sale. The Minister of Energy, Robert Welch, has an- nounced that many homeowners wishing to convert from heating oil to natural gas may have to wait until next spring or summer, due to an overwhelming demand for conversions. By the end of September this year, the three major natural gas utilities had converted 19,650 homes to natural gas, compared to 8,600 last year. The change from heating based on uncertain oil supplies to more plentiful and cheaper natural gas has left manufacturers of fur- nace conversion kits unable to meet the demand. The Opposition Party By MRS. RENA CALDWELL Miss Kisyk assistant KHIPoPme eN Economist for Huron County, gave a topic on The Colonel's Boys and Girls with *ducky fried are coming SOON to Exeter Critic, criticized the Minister for stating that the Govern- ment's conservation and renewable energy programs are "deeply rooted in the Government's total ap- proach to energy." He said this was a hollow statement when you consider, for in- stance, that the windows in the Legislature Buildings are only single-pane and Cebinet Ministers continue to ride in gas guzzlers. The Minister of Health, Dennis Timbrell, has stated that he'll use public money to respond to people iden- tifiable on the 274,852-name petition presented by the NDP which denounce the Province's health-care system. He was unable to estimate how much it would cost to send letters to these people but stated it wouldn't ome from government funds for the operation of hospitals or the Ontario Health Insurance Plan, but from his Ministry's administrative budget, The Minister suggested that vague wording on the petitions might have per- suaded many people to sign even though they might not believe the health-care system was being threatened. "They were worded in such a way that nobody could refuse to sign. There's some I could have signed", he said. "I am going to tell them the fact that since 1972 the per capita spending on health-care has gone up from $205 to $500 and even when one allows for inflation that's a big in- crease...I think it is in the interests of public in- formation and the democratic system that the people have the information. About 50 per cent of the manufacturers who an- swered a survey by the Ontario Labour Ministry are having trouble filling jobs in skilled trades. the positions which employers are trying to fill are for machine operators, machinists, tool, die and mold makers, engineers, welders and electricians.

Liberal leader Stuart Smith is introducing a Private Member's Bill which amounts to an eh- vironmental rights bill. The proposed legislation would permit citizens to go to the Supreme Court of Ontario to protect, their environment. People could take action to safeguard the environment without "first having to prove that they themselves have been • personally damaged or injured." Stuart Smith stated, in the connection with the bill, that reform of existing legislation is long overdue, largely because there have been numerous' violations of environmental laws. He cited mercury con- tamination of the English- Wabigoon River system ig northwestern Ontario and Lake St. Clair, and stated that sulphur dioxide em- missions continue to pollute the air and thousands of lakes and streams. The Legislature Com- mittee on Hydro Affairs is recommending that no more construction contracts be awarded for the Darlington nuclear site until Hydro presents the Legislature with a new construction program based on drastically lowered projections for electricity demand.
