Cardiff outlines PC policies
In a speech to the executive
committee of the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture, in
Stratford, Murray Cardiff,
Member of Parliament for
Huron -Bruce assured
farmers that "agricultural
issues are, have been, and
will continue to be, a top
priority in the Conservative
Party."
In response to what they
feel has been "unacceptable"
economic hardship with
which farmers have been fac-
ed, the P.C.'s are committed
to the preservation of the
family farm, fair returns to
producers, and fair prices for
consumers.
Cardiff said that the* goals
can be achieved through cost
reduction programs such as
the Agribond program, the
creation of Farm Finance
Review Boards, the elimina-
tion of the federal tax on farm
fuels and the abolition of the
current gasoline excise tax
which would cut the price of
fuel to farmers by 20 cents a
gallon.
He said that the party also
remains committed to a Tri -
Partite Meat Stabilization
scheme. "We will not break
our promise to the red meat
producers," he said.
In addition, the Conser-
vatives will change Section 31
of the Income Tax Act, "to
reflect the reality of farm life.
