"The CFFO is concerned
that the will to control quota
values does not exist in _the

Another area of concern to WANT. ADS
the CFFO is lack of planning
for agriculture and the sub-
sequent disappearance of
prime food land in Ontario..
The same brief to the Min-
ister states,: "We believe
that every scrap of food land
must' be kept available for
tood production - not just,
preserved". The brief con-
tinueS, "We are willing to
give up our (so-called) right
to a retirement lot. We do not
need a special status in'
Ontario,

with the tractor demonstration, The tractors
plan to leave Wednesday from Brockford,
travelling to Durham, Mount Forest and
Arthui with plans to spend the night in
Orangeville where the Chamber of Com-
merce is arranging accommodation. The
demonstration will have an Ontario Prov-
incial Police and Toronto City Police escort
on their way.
'*Buses and cars will leave Thursday to take
farmers who cannot join the tractor demon-
stration.
Clark says farmers have decided to act
now to show support for McKessock's bill
and to show that young farmers are
committed. The tractor demonstration will
dramatize the situation. Farmers want to
show the media and city people that they are
desperate, that they are not just interested
in handouts.
