Jack's
Jottings
BY JACK RIDDELL
M.P.P.
The Treasurer of
Ontario, Frank Miller,
has conceded that the
effect of Alberta's action
in providing tax breaks to
oil compapies may not be
in the best interests of all
the Provinces, but said
the federal government
was mostly to blame.
He maintained that
Alberta's move is the
result of its fight with
Ottawa over the
allowance of royalties
charged against
operating costs. The
Federal Government has
refused to permit com-
panies to deduct from
federal taxes royalties
paid to Alberta, and that
province has responded
by allowing companies
based in Alberta to
deduct royalty payments
on oil and gas productions
from the income on which
they pay provincial
taxes.
The Treasurer has
stated that Ontario is not
in a position to grant such
an incentive.
Shell Canada Ltd. and
Imperial Oil Ltd. of
Toronto have established
Calgary -based sub-
sidiaries which will
handle their natural
resources activities.
General administration,
refining and marketing
will continue to be the
responsibility of
theToronto head office.
Gulf Oil Canada Ltd. is
also considering whether
it will consolidate some of
its operations in Calgary
to take advantage of the
incentives.
When Liberal Leader
Stuart Smith asked the
Treasurer to protect
Ontario against what he
called Alberta's
"somewhat un -Canadian
attitude'," in enticing
away Toronto based oil
companies, the
Treasurer said he should
look to Ottawa.
"I would suggest that
the Federal Government
is trying; perhaps un-
successfully, to interfere
with the resource
ownership the provinces
currently have."
He told the Legislature
the by-product of
Alberta's action is that it
become profitable for oil
companies to move
(sometimes mostly on
paper) their operation
from Ontario.
The Treasurer in-
dicated that he is sym-
pathetic to the oil com-
panies, and "if I was a
president I'd do the same
thing."
However, estimates of
revenue lost in cor-
poration taxes because of
the move range from $25
million to $50 million.
CONTROVERSIAL
PHONE CALL
Government and op-
position members of the
Ontario ' Legislature's
justice committee
disagreed sharply on
whether former
Ombudsman Arthur
Maloney should be
allowed to cross-examine
witnesses during an in-
vestigation into the
controversial phone call
made by former Solicitor -
General George Kerr to a
Crown prosecutor.
The committee has
adjourned until next
week without making a
decision.
Mr. Maloney is
representing Mr. Kerr,
the former Solicitor -
General, in the com-
mittee's inquiry in the
propriety of the call to an
assistant Crown attorney
about a court case in-
volving a constituent.
The Attorney General,
Roy McMurtry, told the
Committee that to grant
Mr. Kerr the right to
counsel without allowing.
the counsel to cross-
examine witnesses Is
unfair.
"This is a very serious
matter and to suggest
that this is not in the
nature of a trial is ab-
solutely ludicrous", he
said.
However, Liberal
Margaret Campbell and
NOP's Patrick Lawlor
argued that giving a
lawyer the right to cross-
examination in 443m-
rittee would in effect
