Report from Queen's Park
Queen's Park started its end -of -
the -session ritual of 15 hour days
last week in an endeavour to wind
up the sitting for the summer.
The buildup of government bills
has been under way for two
weeks, several carryingan
element of urgency.
The province wants to send out,
within a week, the cheques under
its Guaranteed Annual Income
Program for those 65 years of age
and over, and 16 increased
Workmen's Compensation Board
pensions.
In the last 10 days there have
been 28 government bills intro-
. A total of 47 piecesf pro-
posed legislation were
during Marth and with
about 70 during ►y and the first,
three weeks of hoe.
The motion to sit unlimited
hours plus the great rah of
don, in closing days
of the session brought objections
from the opptioot who branded
„- is "",a Comity of ps lis mri tart'
WSW
'dpi ovin.ee is considolog
centralizing the administration of
its new 50 per cent land specu-
lation tax. Revenue Minister
Arthur Meen said he was looking
at such centres as Windsor, Lon-
don, lfamil+on and Ottawa to
handle tax clearances. There
have been complaints that it is
taking up to six weeks to obtain
clearance from the ministry
where no tax is payable on
property transactions.
Until -now the province has
been accepting affidavits from
people dealing . with property
values, but within two weeks it
will be in a position to use assets-
ment data to run its own checks
on values.
The provincial government is
imposing "a series of little
Queen's Parks on Ontario muni-
cipalities in the guise of
restructuring local government",
Liberal Leader Robert Nixon
charged during debate on second
reading of a government bill
r'e*trueturing the County of
Oxford. Ile said that regionaliza-
tion is rnaldtig local government
insensitive and remote to area
residents.
"We've got big government in
Ottawa, we've got big govern-
ment here with a budget of over
$8 billion in the Province of On-
tario and 70,000 employees and
now you are moving down into
the municipal level," Mr. Nixon
continued.
Mr. Nixon said the costs of
local government have risen
sharply in . all parts of the
avince where restructuring has.
n place.
In Ottawa -Carleton, expendi-
tures went up 81 per cent in the
first four years after regionaliza-
tion. The rise in Niagara region
was 61 per cent in three years. In
Muskoka spending had gone up 76
per cent in one year.
Copper was first located in
Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, in
the summer of 1897 by miners on
their way to the Klondike gold
fields, but no claims were staked
at that time.
