The Residential Premises
Rent Review Act, was in-
troduced by the Honourable
John Rhodes, minister of
housing, in the Legislature
this week. Mr. Rhodes said
that the introduction of rent
control in Ontario, at this
time is in keeping with the
Government's undertaking
during the last election, and
that it should be viewed in the
context of the federal
government's anti-inflation
measures which it is designed
to complement, The minister
indicated that he was con-
cerned that the possibility of
rent control could; have an
adverse effect on the
development of • rental ac-
commodation which is
already scarce in a number of
communities. However, Mr.
Rhodes said that at a time
when rents have been,
climbing, wages limited and,
'prices subject to review, rent
levies must be legislated for
the common good.
The general principles of
the Legislation are:
+ Leases commencing
between July 29, 1975 and
• January • 1, 1976, will be
limited to a maximum rental
increase of eight percent of
the rent paid in July, 1975.
During this period the
allowable increase cannot be
appealed by either party.
Appeals will be allowed either
party for the balance of the
term after January I, 1976.,

either landlord or tenant.

with a right of appeal by

the purpose of, the Act will
either be a dwelling unit that
contains bathroom and kit=

which were occupied for
residential purposes be°fore
January 1, 1976.
Any person who knowingly
contravenes the Act, is liable
to a fine not exceeding $2,000.
The Attorney General, The
Honourable Roy McMurtry,
informed the Legislature that
in view of the introduction of
the Residential Rent Review
Act, further legislation to
ensure security of tenure, is
required. Therefore, he in-
tends to introduce amend-
ments to the Landlord and
Tenant Act, to:protect tenants
who becom,e involved in rent
disputes.
Last Tuesday evening,
some 3,000 Metro Toronto
high school teachers staged a
mass demonstration at
Queen's Park "to urge the
Government to take a more
responsible stand on the
handover of provincial
control of education to the
federal government",
because the Anti-inflation
Board in Ottawa is to have the
final say in settling the

it has --been signed. This
means that negotiations are
at a stalemate, and the
teachers have now voted
overwhelmingly to go on
strike, which will affect some
140,000 high school students.
In reply to a question by
Vernon Singer, Liberal
Member for Wilson Heights,
as to what progress the
'Attorney General made in
tightening up or staving the
federal authorities tighten up
the drinking and driving
laws, Mr. McMurtry in-
dicated that he attended a
federal -provincial meeting of
Attorneys=General in Halifax
recently and made
representations`'to his federal
counterpart with respect to a
proposed amendment to the
Criminal Code.
The proposed amendment
dealt with removing from the
Criminal Code the power of a
judge, in most instances it
would be a trial judge, to
make order or prohibition
arising as a result of a
drinking and driving. offence.
Mr. McMurtry ' said he in-
dicated that in his view this
was not in the best interest of
controlling or reducing the
very serious problem relating
Ito drinking and driving on our
provincial highways and
requested the amendment be
changed and that trial judges
be given the power to make
driving prohibitions up to a
period of a lifetime for the
appropriate case.
Mrs. Margaret Campbell,
Liberal member for St.
George, asked the ,minister rof
community and social ser-
vices, whether he has given
consideration to redefining
disability for the purposes of
GAINS. Mr. Taylor, the
minister of community and
social services, said that a
great deal of consideraticin
has been given but that it is a
difficult problem as there is
supposedly a difference
between the permanently
unemployable and the per-
manently disabled. Therehas
been a review of .everyone
from 60 to 65 years and there

Mrs, Sandeman, NDP.

asked the minister of con-

fairs -whether he was aware of
the different . requirements
made for married women

opposed to those made for
married men, She asked
whether tk,, r'linkktor• was
fl
going to bring in legislation to
end discrimination in credit
rules.
Mr. Handleman replied
that he was aware of the
discriminatory aspects of
credit granting practices on
the part of certain in-
stitutions, but that a set of
guidelines have just been
completed which will be put
to industry for comment. The
minister said he hopes to
have an announcement to
correct the situation before
