corners and then'Fairy Ring. We ..

by the .wolves. whileour shepherds
sitidly .by and do notfiing`to help
us survive.
Mother Nature has dealt thous-
ands of farmers a• hard, blow, this
fall. ,It is heartbreaking enough to,
see your crops, totting in the fields;
and not being • able to doanything
about them:. . .
It is a shameful thing when, we
farmers must be humiliated into
•begging for the very food that . we
produce in plenty foreveryone else
and are -denied the paltry amount.
of assistance that it would take to•
Pee ;us through until the Pun shines
again;•0
If we had our rightful share of
our:. booming economy in the past,
•we`wouldn't be;in the;position
where, we ,have to stoop to begging'.
with our,hat inourhand. • •.
.
I ask you. Mr. Minister, you are
supposed to be our leader, have you
evergone' out in' the country and
seen the plight of'the people who
are ,depending upon' you for leader-
ship?? Unless some'type of .help is
given to the farmers, very soon,
they will be forced to organize
in great numbers or get off the
land and leave behind all the hopes
and dreams of any kind of.a future.
And so in the days ahead, we
will hope and pray that you will.
reconsider your decision on your •
"FlatRefusal for farm'aid", and
that the 'Good Lord will give you
the wisdom to deal with this prob-
seta with "intelligence, integrity
and ;courage" . On behalf of the '
fanners of ,Ontario; 1 hope that
the coming year will make you• a'
better shepherd for your sheep.
