QUEENS PARK BY JACK RIDDELL, The. report of the Emergency Task Force of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, has now been made public and concluded that fanners in this province are facing an "emergncy economic situation primari- ly as a result of lhigh interest rates." This message seems evi- dent to everyone concerned about the agriculture in- dustry except to the Minister of Agriculture and Food. Even his Deputy Minister last we stated that Ontario lacks an agriculture policy and. that we stand to lose a lot of our most efficie' farmers m the next year if nothing is done by the prp- vince to help them. This report confirmed what we in the Metal Party have been advocating for some time now. In my sub- mission to this Task Force, I poiliteid out that Ontario Farmers are at a disadvan- tage when the financial assistance provided to the agriculture industry by other provinces and other countries are examined. It is no ,accident that Quebec's net fannincome last year in- creased by 12.7 per cent wee Ontario's income decreased by 29.5 percent. The Task Force report has confirmed this situation and has recommended that the government introduce assistance programs to en- sure that (Mario farmers are not disadvantaged through parochial policies of other provinces. Immediate assistance must be given to farmers on the verge t bankruptcy. An emergency interest subsidy program for Ontario's farmers' operating emenses isrequired. If we are to save our young, aggresive, in- novative and efficient fairmers„. we Must subsidire hgerest rates. Whge die Minister of Agricultme, Lorne Hnder- son, leads as to believe that only a small number of farmers are in financial dif- flatRY and by pbythg the 'Ilirmber game" states that only one percent of our farmers are m trouble, the Task Force reports "the number of fanners in h-on- ble is much greater than ad- mitted by government and the banks." I reminded the 'Treasurer, in the Legislature during discusSions g the ,Task Force moat., that last June he and the Iftenrier met with a group of farmers from eau% the province and mo- ralised them that the govern- ment had 1199 maim to than :rl Ifl ithEilr. pro- blems. Of that, SsZo has been spent to the beef industry Its is the rest of the money? At the OFA haterm„ tusoler again preanised that a.-.ictarvir. would prior to the closing of the session.
