Farmers
receive
more aid
BY JACK R1DDF.I J
MPP
In a speech to the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture
Convention, the Minister of
Agriculture and Food, Den-.
nis Timbrell, pledged
another $20 million to aid
financially troubled
farmers.
The money will go on top of
$60 million the province is
making available to about
4,000 farmers this year.
Timbrell said the one year
extension of the Ontario
Farm Adjustment
Assistance program will aid
an additional 2000 farmers in
1983 with a system of loan
guarantees and rebates on
interest paid to financial in-
stitutions.
Timbrell also announced
that, starting in 1984. the
farmers will be rebated all
municipal taxes on
farmland. The land and pro-
pertyon which the house sits
will be assessed and taxed
sirniliar to houses and pro-
perties in residential areas.
That move will increase
property tax rebates to
farmers to $85 million from
$65 million.
The Hydro Empire
The Conservative majori-
ty voted down a Private
Member's Bill presented by
Pat Reid (Liberal Finance
Critic), aimed at bringing
Ontario Hydro under con-
trot Speaking on the Bill,
Mr. Reid indicated that
"staff numbers, salaries and
megaprojects are escalating
astronomically - far outpac-
ing the demand on the cor--
porationforpower."
"Star Wars must surely
have been inspired by On-
tario Hydro. I can think of no
other Empire with the abili •
• ty ,to `strike back' at the
public with ' m►P h' uni
... The
people must strike back at
the Empire or face the in-
creased burden of mounting
costs through their
household • and industrial
electrical bills: , \`\
Here ' are some alarming '
facts: almost half of On-
tario's $28 billion debt is at-
tributable to Hydro; some 40
percent of Ontario
customers' electrical bills go
to cover the interest charges
on that debt; planners have
consistently over -forecast
1 demand and continue' to
waste billions to support the
superstructure; if control is
not exercised, electrical
capacity will exceed, peak
demands in 1990 by more -
than 50 percent; while elec-
trical rical demand has
moderated, Ontario Hydro
• staff numbers have soared
by almost 30 percent - by
almost.40 percent at head of-
fice alone, with the staff
complement reaching
almost 25;000, the average •
base salary' at $31,118
($40,112 including benefits),
and the head of the Empire,
Hugh Macaulay, paid
between $61,100 and $77,375.
Ontario Jobs ;- •
• In addition to the $100
million . pledged by the On-
tario Government for
employment creation under
a recent federal -provincial
agreement, there will be
another $50 million made
available to stimulate the
provincial job market this
winter, according to the Pro-
vincial Treasurer. The
three-month winter spending •
program is intended to show ..
results by December, and to
create 7,500 new jobs, form-
ing "an important bridge"
between the joint action of.
the federal -provincial
governments, andthe job-
•—creatien schemes initiated in --
the provincial budget last
spring..
Opposition Leader David

would do little to staunch the
loss of jobs in Ontario - about
60,000 in 'the 'past two mon-
tht.
Suncor
David Peterson has
pointed out that the Ontario
Government's investment in'
Suncor has already cost the
provincial taxpayer more
than $50 million - and the loss
is rising. Through the first
nine months of 1982, interest
