One of the comments that I have been hearing " while travelling around the constituency, taking part in the ,campaign for the federal election, is, that not enough emphasis' is being placed on government policies ifor labour. I will let the federal candidates speak for themselves • on this matter but I do want to draw to the attention of the workers a project initiated by the Liberal Party of Ontario. Liberal Labour Critic, . Ron Van Horne (London North)„, will head a Labour Task Force for the Ontario Liberal Party. He will be assisted by Liberal Members Ray, Haggerty (Erie) and Mr. Jim - Bradley (St. Catharines), plus local membersin, each com- munity in which hearings are held. The purpose of this Task -Foree---is. to get.... grass-roots input to assist the Liberal Party in• and presenting , a Liberal Labour Policy Paper. ' The Task Force will seek briefs on and will - hold public hearings on _ various aspects of labour - management relations - such as: labour legislation; union security and - union responsibility; rights of unorganized workers; management rights and responsibilities; man- power management programs; women in the workplace. Hearings will be held in -e f—Onta r o Centres, both large and small. The first set of hea,rings will be held in late February in Wind- sor, London, Kitchener and Hamilton. The Conference Board in Canada is a widely respected) independent body supported by in- dustry, labour and government. A little over a week ago, the Board released its most recent report on the economic situation in this country, including its forecasts for the months that lie ahead. The Board predicted that more than 80 percent, - of Canada's economic growth this - year will come from the Western provinces, while Ontario and Quebec together will contribute less than 10 percent. Real growth in Ontario is predicted to be only .2 percent, compared with 4.5 percent in Alberta and four percent in Saskat- chewan.

Part of the explanation for the poor performance of. Ontario and Quebec is the anticipated dismal year for manufacturing interests, which are, largely concentrated" in those two provinces.. Production of manufactured goods is expected to decline by almost three percent nationally, but by almost four percent in Ontario. , Of course, the •decline in manufacturing will also have an adverse effect on related fields - utilities, transportation, communication, storage, wholesaling and finance. In addition, ,reduced consumer spending will damage the retailing, personal service and housing markets. The Conference Board also predicts a stormy year of industrial- strife, with anticipated decline in corporate profiti setting the stage for bitter confrontations between management and unions representing Turn to page 7A PRICES EFFECTIVE THRI.1 SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16th, 1980 WE REDEEM ALL FOOD STORE COUPONS!
