Home My WebLink AboutThe Lucknow Sentinel, 1989-01-04, Page 5`Tis the season to be jolly and thuunkfull. We at the Holyrood Play 'School are very appreciative of sill the support we have received during the pastyear. Our youngsters 'have 'been busy:playing, going on fieldirips, making crafts, having parties and enjoying each others' com- pany. A few new faces joined us this year and we gladly welcomed then. We would like at this time to thank the Dinettes for graciously offering us the op- portunity to participate in their craft and bake sale. It was- a worthwhile day as the proceeds from our table will help to defray our ongoing costs. As well, our Christmas Raffle was a =great success. The lucky win- ner was Stuart Eadie, R. 3, Holyrood. Thank you to all who supported our bake table and participated in our raffle. Without the moms, dads, grandparents and of course, the thildren, there would be no play school. But withoutthe generous support of our community the experience would not be as rewarding for our children. Season's greetings to all. Holyrood Play School To the editor : Please find enclosed a cheque for $17.00. I wouldn't want to be without the Sentinel. I enjoyed the tribute to Aunt Myrtle Mo- Quiliin. She was a wonderful person, and always worked hard. Myrtle M. was my dad's sister. Richard McQuillin certainly paid tribute to his grandmother. Mrs. Len Craig, melon.

John Martin, Chief Executive Officer, USC Canada, 56 Sparks Street, Ottawa, Ontario KIP 8B1 Dear Editor: There has been considerable confusion in the community about compensation for those affected by the default of the Brussels stockyard. The Beef Financial Protection Fundpro- gram is designed to provide compensation in cases such as this and has been ex- tremely efficient and effective in dealing with the claims of those who met the criteria. The program, which was established in 1982 after extensive consultations with the industry, is designed to ° protect Ontario producers, but not those from other provinces. -As a result, out of total claims of $800,000 which have beenproeessed so far, -$2.57,000 have not beenacceptedforpayment bythe Beef Financial Protection Fund .Board because the transactions took place out- side the province. The board is made .up of representatives of the beef industry. The remaining $543,000 in claims pro- cessed to date came from Ontario. Since the program is designed to cover 90 per- cent of the losses, Ontario producers could have received payments of. about$489,000. Payments of; 369;000 have already been made to 77 Ontario producers todate. This includesthe four4-H members whose cat - . at. tie were affected by the Brussels default. Another 21 claims have been rejected because the board ruled.theyndid not meet the criteria of the program. Any .person -who. has bad a :claim rejected canappeal directly tothe.board. The largest number were rejected because the applicant had not cashed the cheque from *Brussels stockyards within .five days of receiving it.This frveYday-rule has beenin effectethea began in 1982and.is designed .to a the pro- ducerfollows good business practices and does not extend credit. ° I :have been .impressed with the speed, fairness and efficiency of those who ad- -minister4he program. It can often be dif- ficult to det�erminewhois.aleetimate prro- ducer :thing that is -nece ary to preserve the :integrity of the program. After all, it is producers' money :in .the fund. Early in the new year,•theboard:will be considering another four: applicantswhich were late in :being submitted. The Brussels Situation shows the value of this program, which has paid outalmost $1.9: million to producers since 1942. For -77 producers affected by the .Brussels default, the .program has 'made all the difference in •the: world. Sincerely yours, , Jack .Riddell,,Minister of Agriculturee and Food.
