HURON.BRUCE In the. Speech from the Throne, opening a new session of, the Legislature this ,week, the Ontario Government promised to appoint an ombudsman to protect citizens from arbitrary ,decisions by the provincial bureaucracy.. , The Government also proinised increased aid for the elderly and for those trying .to buy homes. The Speech also said it ' would 'seek the co-operation of law enforcement agencies" to curb rising crime, ,so that our cities and streets will remain the safest' arid most 'secure in . North America". Most of the 'speech, read by Lieutenant Governor 'Pauline Mc- Gibbon, dealt with the tough economic times , the government „expects in the near future. Other than the appointment of an ombudsman, there are few details of the Government's plang for the Session which is expected to be the last before an election. Measures to provide Ontario , farmers with reaSonable assurance of maintaining a• profitable: and vital ' enterprise were promised, although there were no specifics spelled out. Environment Minister, Mr. Wil- liam Newman this week gave the Ontario soft drink industry 12 months to start using More refillable pop containers or face legislation because throw-away pop cans and brittles are environment- ally damaging. He said they cause more' energy consumption, More litter and more garbage. The Minister demanded th-at retailers offer in reusable -bottles all sizes and brands they stock. He also asked for a price structure to reflect the desirability of refillable betties such as a higher price for throw-aways, .convenient return system for refillables • and promotion of refillables by the industry itself. • -' Arthur Porter, Chairman of the Canadian Environmental Advisory Council, and ' a Professor of Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto was named this week to' head a special Royal Commission into the long range planning for Ontario's power needs. The Commission, which antici- WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 1975 pates two years of public hearings . across the Province, will ,emphasize public participation in planning the expansion ,of Ontario Hydro for 1983-93. By 1983, if Hydro's plans go ahead as proposed, the assets of the ,Crown Corporation would increase from their value in 1972 of about $5.5 billion to more than $30 billion. Mr. Grossman said the conse- quences of these policy' decisions are, so far reaching and so , directly affect the lives Of Ontario citizens that we cannot .make them hastily or arbitrarily.
