Jack Riddell MPP The second session of the thirty-third parliament resumed at Queen's Park last week with a heavy legislative agenda facing all members. The government opened the session with a pledge to continue to strive to niake minori- ty government work, with the co-operation of the opposition parties. Several key pieces of legislation com- mand immediate attention. In housing, the Residential Rent Regulations Act (Bill 51) is before the Resources Development Commit- tee at Queen's Park. As Housing Minister Alvin Curling has said, this bill is significant in that it provides the tenants of Ontario with real and universal protection from un- fair rent increases, it provides for the revitalization of rental housing construction in this province and it creates a system of a_s en`.Pitu S:i1 1 s fair and equitable. The coming session will see progress tn„ comprehensive study of health care in the province, under the direction of Dr. John Evans.

The purpose of the program review would be to make recommendations for changed or improvements to the Crop Insurance Pro- gram - if required or deemed desirable. Crop Insurance, which was initiated 20 years ago and has served farmers well, has had strainsi,placed on it by shifting farmer demands and the current economic conditions.

The next meeting will be on November 6 Soya -bean growers encouraged Representatives of the Ontario Soya -Bean Growers' Marketing Board were very en- couraged by meetings with Agriculture Minister John Wise and Wheat Board Minister Charles Mayer on October 15 and 16. The meetings were held to discuss the $1 billion in Federal Government assistance which has been promised to Canadian farmers and how a- portion of it may be allocated to soybean growers. Mr. Wise clarified a number of concerns regarding the promised assistance stating that it will be in the form of cash assistance to all oilseed and grain producers in Canada. It will not be in the form of repayable loans. The purpose of the pay- ment will be to assist farmers who have seen the prices of their commodities drop sharply to unprofitable levels, due to the ef- fects of the agricultural trade war between the United States and the European Economic Community. Maurice Waddick, Chairman of the On- tario Soya -Bean Growers' Marketing Board stated that the promised aid was "a sign that the Federal Government is aware of the to Fletcher's Meat market. financial problems facing farmers."
