Lois Elliott of Clinton was named a provincial board member. Producers not convinced levy helpful Continued from page 14 national concensus in the hog industry and in recent years had seen the elements of a united national pork industry coming into place. With the Canadian Pork Council recommending the levy program, the Ontario board felt a uniform national program was the best one. He warned that if Ontario didn’t take part in the program it would, as the largest consumer market other than the U.S. market, see a flow of pork into the province from other provinces. The board members are them­ selves farmers and no one wanted to pay the extra $2, he said but “as much as we respect the wisdom of the producers and the councilmen, there are times when the marketing board must assess the wide reality of the situation.’’ He pointed out the vote was 12 for and two against, the two being Ron Douglas from Huron and Ross Small from Well­ ington. Mr. Small spoke at the Londes- boro meeting, presenting statistics showing Ontario’s place among the producers and exporters of hogs and the trends which seemed to show more production shifting away from Ontario and toward Quebec and the Prairie provinces. He called the levy a good deal for Quebec which accounts for 44 per cent of Canadian exports, but questioned if it was a good deal for Ontario. He called the $2 levy only a short term gain and called for exploration of other possible long­ term solutions to try to stabilize the market for pork. Should farmer- owned co-ops start packing plants, he wondered? Should the pork industry be looking at supply management? Should the market­ ing budget for pork be increased to try to increase consumption of pork in Canada and mean less depend­ ance on the U.S. market? Mr. Douglas explained that after he had voted no to the $2 levy and lost at the OPPMB come back to Huron the local executive, the six counties in represents are against the levy, he said, the other four are for it. Most of the questions from the floor showed the skepticism of Huron producers about the levy. Many of the questioners worried level, he had and spoke to While two of the zone he that the levy itself might not be called a countervailable subsidy by the Americans. Mr. McDonald said experts in Canada and Washington had been called in for their advice and they felt the program was safe because the U.S. assesses only against government subsidies, not subsidies from producers. But another questionner pointed out the Board had also felt the tripar­ tite stabilization program wasn’t countervailable either and that is the program the U.S. producers are basing their case against. Another argued that even if the U.S. loses this case it will be back with another to harrass Canadian ex­ ports and he wondered when support for the packers would end. Mr. Smith said that before the Pork Council became involved in the trust fund it asked for assur­ ances from the packers that they would get more involved in devel­ oping offshare markets, something the Council has been pushing for for years without co-operation. Now the promised co-operation has come. But the arguments failed to convince the producers who still voted 3-1 against the levy. CALL CITIZEN CLASSIFIED AT 523-4792 OR 887-9114 24 HOURS A DAY
