The Ontario govern- ment adopted an emergency interest relief program proposed by the Ontario Liberal Party, and made the an- nouncement at the end of last week. • For farmers who qualify for the_:. Ontario Farm Interest Assistance Program, . the govern- ment will subsidize in- terest rates up to a maximum of three percent on short-term working capital, borrowed at above 12 percent. The maximum amount of borrowed capital on which the subsidy is payable is $50,000 and the time period is nine months, extending from April 1, 1980 to December 31, 1980. The subsidy is available to farmers who are engaged in food production. Program criteria are being ' developed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food in co-operation with the Ort,Iario Federation of Agriculture, 1 Financial institutions are also in- vited to take part in developing the criteria. A broad outline of the program has the following scenario. Farmers will take out loans from institutions in the usual way. When their short-term financial dealings are complete, or when the nine-month program period ends, the farmer will send in an application for the subsidy to the Ministry of Agriculture . and Food. The 'application must be countersigned by the ' lending 'stitution, and must st to the interest rate, the mount of short- term capital borrowed and the interest paid. • An information leaflet describing. the program and setting -out -rhe criteria will be available in the near future from .the • agricultural 'representatives' offices and from financial in- stitutions. Application forms will be available -from the same sources, It is to be hoped that the federal government' will pespond positively to the program,and render similar ssistance to farmers. I know the federal minister of agriculture is concerned about the problems that high interest rates are causing in the farming community. 114 THE CONFEDERATION DEBATE As most Ontarians are well aware, the Legislature held a unique five-day debate last week on the subject of Canadian Confederation. As both a member of the Legislature and a strong supporter of Confederation, I was extremely proud . and gratified by the sen- timents expressed by members on both sides of the House, and by the general tone of the debate. While both opposition parties have consistently questioned the policies of the Ontario Government regarding French language services and the rights of Franco- Ontarians, the entire Legislature agrees that we want the Province of Quebec 'to remain a part of our great country. In fact, the Legislature's debate gave many MPPs. a welcome opportunity to deliver highly personal and often eloquent messages to the people of Ontario and Canada as a whole. (And for the first time ever, the entire proceedings were broadcast throughout the province through the Ontario Educational Television Network). A wide variety of subject areas were discussed - historical, economic,. multicultural, etc. - but the overall message was basically the sameThat is, we must stay together, because we share a common heritage and a tremendous potential together. Here are some excerpts from a number of members' addresses including my own: "Quebec and Ontario have had 200 years of political co-operation and personal friendships. There have been serious misunderstandings and injustices on both sides, but never a lack of goodwill and good in- Tentionamong the people St. Georges Anglican Church, Thursday. Following the service they were treated to tea and snacks in the parish hall. (photo by Dave Sykes) t helps farmers and their leaders." - Robert Nixon L. - Brant - Oxford -Norfolk ' "As Canadians, we are allowed to share a richness that can't be measured in dollars and cents. I am speaking of our cultures, our languages, our unique view of the world. These have been nourished by •7aek.Riddell our history and guaranteed by our national will and our economic strength as a nation. Break us apart and we all lose." - Frank Miller, Treasurer of ontario. "I think that on the northern half of this continent we can build a country that is boh singular and truly Brea\ I think that in some ways, in many ways, we can he an example to the rest of the world. I hope that one day other people in the world can look at Canada and say, 'Yes, yes it is possible. Oui, c'est possible'." - Michael Davison, NDP - Hamilton Centre "It would seem to me that those who look at our country from. a distance, who find the country with the tremendous agricultural basis we have, the tremendous base of natural resour- ces, the enormously skilled. work force, the access „_ to._ _market-_ s...would find the current debate in a country so rich in all of these things rather shocking and startling." - Larry Grossman, Ministry of Industry and Tourism • l.. "Agriculture is a common heritage shared by • all Canadians, regardless of,,where one lives in this great country. We all know that Alberta has oil, Saskatchewan has potash and Ontario and Quebec have industry: but agriculture has no provincial boundaries. If spans the country and as such, it represents one very basic and essential thread upon which our nation was -not only founded and settled but continues to grow. The Canadian farmer, perhaps is the most unifying common force throughout this land. It was the farmers who first settled this country. Agriculture and the agricultural way of life have provided a stabilizing and con- structive force in society. Canadian farmers and Canadian agriculture make up a vital part of the fabric of what we call Canada. We have practically every Nationality represented. We have the Ir'fth, the Scots, the English, and' the French, the Germans, the Dutch, the Ukranians, the Jewish people and most other nationalities. And all of them speak one language and that language is foods_ ,,No _matter. wile thet•__SLou are _._ talking to a Quebec farmer, an Ontario farmer or an Albertan farmer.' They all have similar concerns. They are worried about the bad weather at harvest"time; about rising inflation; high input costs, low. prices and the increasing 'difficulty of making farm ing a profitable business. No matter how tough times may be, however, the farmer will fight to keep his farm because it is still the best way of life." - Jack Riddell L. Huron Mid- dlesex. In all, more than 70 Members spoke in the Debate. The question, 4, course, remains as to wht effect, if any, our efforts had or will have on the final result in the Referendum on May 20. Naturally, we all hope that our words have not fallen on deaf eahs;' that those who might be considering a "Yes" vote have not made up their minds completely. , One problem that may overshadow the message and good intent of oul;,,, ,.
