Wins .TripTo Jamaica', • Jack's Jottings. Last place ay JACK RIDPELL hAPP Huron-Middlesex Last week I wrote about the economic situation in this country as reported by the Conference Board in Canada. I'm sure it came as a surprise to those who read the article that Ontario has dropped to'last place of all the provinces from the standpoint of economic growth, The Board predicted that more than 80 percent of Canada's economic growth this year will come from the Western provinces and even the chronically poorer Maritime provinces will outperform this province in 1980. I would like to conclude this article by saying that we in Ontario, for a very long time, have prided ourselves on being more successful, more financially secure than our sister provinces. This is no longer the case. Some time in late 1977 or early 197a, Ontario became "have-not" Province, within the meaning applied to the national equalization for- mula. Alberta and British Columbia have never qualified for equalization entitlements under this formula which is, based on the national average and Came into effect in 196768. We little dreamed at that time that within a decade Ontario would qualify for equalization payments, In the early 1970's, Ontario's contribution to federal revenues, based on personal income tax and corporation tax, was about 45 per cent, By 1977, the latest date for which official figures are available, our contribution in personal income tax had dropped to approximately 40 per cent of federal revenues and to about 36.4 per cent in cor- poration tax. This strong downward tax, and the 40 per cent figure should be ap- plicable now. The trend in corporation tax is difficult to predict, but at best it should be about the same (36-37 per cent). Therefore, 38-39 per cent is a realistic figure to use as Ontario's current contribution to federal revenue. The Provincial Treasurer has acknowledged that Ontario has become a have- not province and therefore, entitled to almost $500 million in equalization payments over the past three years. David Peterson, the Liberal Finance Critic, has demanded to know why Ontario has not taken this money, and whether it is a question of pride, The Treasurer has taken the attitude that Ontario eligibility for the payments only shows how out of date the formula has become. He argues that to give this Province equalization payments would violate the principle of equalization. , It's interesting to note that if all oil revenues were taken into account 'in the equalization formula rather than the present level of 50 per cent, Ontario would be entitled to something like $1,032 billion. It's easy to see, Of course, why the Government of the day are reluctant to put out their hands for this money, why they are fighting so haid for an alternative approach, such as a -national fund to be set up from oil revenues, They want the money, but they don't want, what they consider to be the stigma of entitlement under the present equalization for- mule. Will history, books show Oiktari0 as becoming otie of the "Have-not" provinces in the 1980's. Only time will tell. Agriculture and Food Minister Lorne C. Henderson announced that additional funds are being made available for, drainage grants to cover the backlog of projects which have been completed and inspected, but for which no funds were previously available. The additional money will apply only to the March 1980 tile drainage debentures. To qualify, municipalities must have their completed debentures, dated March 1, 1980, in the Ministry office in; Toronto by. February 29, 1980. Loans to individuals from this increased funding must not exceed 75 per cent of the cost of the project. In ad- dition, there is a limit of $20,000 to any one individual. Funding is available, however, for the entire backlog of completed and inspected projects. Mr. Henderson urged municipalities to, make every effort to get their documentation into the ministry in time to take advantage of this extra money. •,:411d* By MISS'JEAN COPELAND Mrs. Rena Morphy, London and Mrs. Cecil Murray, Exeter were Sunday visitors with Mrs. George Morphy.
