Liquor ads to be, restricted.
THE BRUSSELS POST, APRIL 5, 1978 — 9
By Murray Gaunt
The Minister of Consumer and
Commercial Relations has
annoucned revised Advertising
Directives for Producers of
Alcoholic Beverages, which are
more comprehensive and more
restrictive than existing guide-
lines.
New restrictions have been
added oh ' lifestyle advertising,
For example, beer, wine and
dder advertisers must take into
account. _the likelihood of minors
and adult non-users being
exposed to their advertising. The
probable audience...for an
advertisement must consist
primarily of drinking age adults.
Advertisers are required to
prepare...an annual report...
containing data on the ages of
those exposed to their advertising
the previous one-year period,
based upon independent qualified
sources, such as the Bureau of
Br oadcast Measurement and the
Print Measurement Bureau.
The advertisements are to
emphasize the nature and quality
of the product, and not to imply
that social acceptance, personal
success, business or athletic
achievement may result form the
use of the advertised product.
Advertisements should be
directed to promoting the merits
of the particular brand, to
promote brand preference, and
should not suggest that the
consumption of alcoholic
beverages is a significant factorin
the realization of the enjoyment of
any activity.
Advertiserhents must not
*.suggest that participants in work,
sports, hobby, recreation ,and
other similar activities should
consume alcoholic beverages
=`.whilst engaging in their work or
other activity. Nor may
advertising suggest that
consumption of alcohol in any way
enhances performance or enjoy-
ment of these activities.
Most important, advertise-
ments must not appear to suggest
or recommend the consumption of
beer, wine or cider prior to the
driving of a motorized vehicle, or
participation in any sort of activity
in which the participants' safety
is dependent upon normal levels
of alertness, physical coordin-
ation or speed of response,' except
in authorized messages of
'moderation. Nor should any
advertisement depict or suggest
any activity which is a breach of
the Liquor Licence Actor any other
Provincial Statute.
Frequency of broadcast
advertising has been reduced,
and the' new Directives specify
that no company may advertise
more than 75 minutes a week in
any calendar year, and that the
weekly _average is not to exceed
55 minutes. For TV, the weekly

maximum per station: is 35
minutes, the weekly average not
to exceed 30 minutes.
Messages suggesting under-
age drinking will not 'be
permitted, not will advertising in
publications having a readership
predominantly under the drinking
age, or during broadcast time
with a predominantly under age
audience.
Liberal Leader Stuart Smith has
confronted the Provincia:
Treasurer with his own words
from the 1976 Provincial Budget
in connection with the Province's
OHIP premiums. At that time the
Treasurer said that the 1976
proposed premium increases
would mean that about 28% of
OHIP costs would be met ,by
premiums Hemaintained that this
percentage would be a more
appropriate level than the 23%
raised in 1975-76 and was a
suitable "long-run norm to
maintain as health care costs
increase in future years."
Stuart Smith has poiiited out
that the 37.5% increase in
premiums proposed in the 1978
Provincial Budget will, in fact,
raise $199 million more than the
Treasurer claimed in 1976 was an
appropriate percentage of health
costs. It would seem that the
Treasurer's "long-run norm"
was only aplicabfe until this
March 7. The currently proposed
increases mean that premiums
would cover 34% of health care
costs.' Had the Treasurer
maintained his own percentage
*figure of ;28% he would have
needed $199 million less. The
Treasurer said he had changed
his mind since.1976. The Liberal
Leader chatged that the
Treasurer was simply looking for
a place to raise about $200 million
mere in revenue "and picked on
the OHIP premiums to do it,
because he knows that people are
worried about health, and because
it is a high-profile ministry behind
which he can hide the fiscal
irresponsibility which put him in
this box in the first place."
This week the Ministry of the
Environment Estimates came
befcrethe Resources Development
Committee for consideration. In
leading off for the Liberal Party, I
stated that in my view the
Ministry of theEnvironment was
indeed a very important Ministry,
in that it could set new directions
for the province in the next few
years with respect to how we
handle our garbage and whether
cr not we make some major
thrusts into the areas of recycling
of waste and the whole field of
resource recovery. I pointed out
that something will have to be
done, because we cannot continue
to use landfill sites indefinitely 'to
dspose of municipal garbage and
waste, as well as industrial waste,
simply, because of the volumes
involved.
Metropolitan Toronto
produces 1.7 million tons of
rbage every year, and at
current trends will 'likely double
hi the next ten to twelve years.
Re cycling has major implications
in terms of conserving resources,
saving money as well as energy.
For instance, the recycling of
paper alone can save substantial
natural resources. Recycling
eleven million tons of paper could
