Report from Que
By Morey daunt, MPP for Huron -Bruce
people !entering the work force,
the seasonally adjusted unem-
ployed rate is now at 7.3 per cent,,
up .3 per cent over the previous
month. TheTreasurer said he ex-
pected to sign an agreement with
Ottawa in the near future, which
would cover heavily hit areas Of
Eastern Ontario, and he
promised a "complete package”
of job creation measures to com-
bat unemployment.
Beginning in January, single
elderly people in this province
who receive guaranteed income
supplements will get $20 morea
month. The Minister of Revenue
also told the Legislature that
elderly married couples who
ceive the supplement will receive
$10 extra a month. The increase
in the guaranteed income level
ensures that Ontario residents
who are 65 or older will benefit
fully from recently announced
federal . payments. With effect
January 1st, the guaranteed in-
come level will be $343 a month
for single people, and $666 a
month for married couples, if
both spouses qualify for the
guaranteed income supplement,
These increases will affect about
244,000 elderly residents of On -
November 1977 and last month, ^tario. Some 2,500 additional sen -
but due to the large number of for citizens who do not qualify for
the federal pension and supple-
ment will receive a monthly in-
crease equivalent to the federal
increase. The Minister said this -
will cost Ontario about $600,000 a
year.
Liberal Leader Stuart Smith
has stated that the fluctuating
foreign exchange rate could cost
Ontario Hydro customers an un-
expected $1 billion for money
borrowed abroad. He indicated
that Hydro has been forced to
borrow in foreign markets be-
cause available provincial pens-
ion funds have been used up to
pay for years of provincial defic-
its. Dr. Smith cited figures con-
tained in Hydro''s November 15
prospectus, which show that the
corporation owes $617. million to
the end of June on its foreign
bonds and notes because of the

Ontario Treasurer Frank Mill-
er said this week that he strongly
favours a report calling for mas-
sive grants and tax breaks to
entice pulp and paper companies
to modernize their mills and live
up to pollution control orders
often ignored in the past.
The report recommends giving
out more than $100 million in pub-
lic money over- five years to the
industry, which it said is unable
to compete with U.S. companies
except whbn the Canadian dollar
is ata low level, as it is now...
The Treasurer this week told
the Legislature that unemploy-
ment in the province rose
marginally from 6.1 per cent to
6.6 per cent of the labour force
between October and November.
Latest unemployment figures
show, an overall increase, bring-
ing the total unemployment to
312,000.This is despite the fact
that Ontario was the only
province to increase its work
force during the period in ques-
tion. The Treasurer described the
rise in the number of unemployed
as "regrettable", ,but entirely
due to the increase in the work
force. Some 154,000 new jobs
were created in Ontario between
