Clinton News-Record, 1983-04-13, Page 2PAGE 2—CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 1 C ntrov Approximately 100 farmers from Perth and the surrounding counties attend- ed an information meeting on Liberal MP, Ralph Ferguson's controversial farm b' I 10-653, in Mitchell April 5. Brigid Pyke, an ex- ecutive member of the On- tario Federation of Agriculture, ( OFA 1 was on hand to help explain the con- tents of the bill, now before a Commons sub -committee on agriculture. The bill has passed second reading in the house. "'There is a lot of con- troversy and dissension about this bill," Mrs. Pyke told farmers. She explained that much of the controversy stems from confusion about the bill's contents and a fear among farmers that if it is passed, banking institutions will re- evaluate criteria for lending to farmers. She also told the group that the OFA supports the concept, however they are continuing to monitor amendments to the bill. rs 1 far Mrs. Pyke feels that if the bill is passed it will not affect lending practices. -Any changes in the law should not jeopardize fanner and banker relationships," she added. She also told the group that they should voice their opi- nions to local federation directors and offer input to the UFA. "If there is something you don't like, tell your direc- tors," she urged. The present bill is an amendment of the Farmers' Creditors Arrangement Act of 1935 and includes a system in which a farmer, unable to meet his debts can file a written proposal with the court for a composition, ex- tension of time or a scheme of arrangement either before or after an assign- ment of property has been filed under the Bankruptcy Act. Mrs. Pyke told the fanners that at the time of filing a proposal, an official receiver would be appointed iseusse to act as trustee of the farm o ration. She exped float this would protect both the interests of the farmer and the creditor. The bill goes on to explain the rights of the farmer, creditors and the court dur- ing proposal proceedings. in She told farmers that infor- mation on the bill and copies of it can obtained from the federal government. Mrs. Pyke told the farmers that a similar bill, C-12, introduced in I:, • •a, is similar to C-653 and takes precedence over the farm land tax ince The Huron County t' ederatton of Agriculture, has planned a special meeting to deal with the Farm Land Tax issue.
