Report from Queen's Park
MURRAY ELSTON, MLA
Ontario Lieutenant
Governor John Black Aird
drove to Queen's Park April
21 to open the first session of
the 32nd Legislature, amid
the usual pomp and
pageantry associated with
these occasions.
With the election of a
number of new members in
the recent provincial elec-
tion it will he particularly
interesting to watch develop-
ments, since many members
in the new House have no
previous experience of
majority government.
The throne speech read by
the lieutenant governor
stated the government's
intentions for the upcoming
session. The short, 17 -page
speech did little more than
restate promises made -'by
the government during the
election. In fact most of it
was outlined in January in
the five-year economic blue-
print known as the BILD
(Board of Industrial Leader-
ship and Development)
program.
Emphasis was given to the
premier's call for a first
ministers' conference on the
economy to deal with the
problem of inflation. Other
highlights included:
creation of an office to
