Mr. Van Reers said local federation, members ha 1 sent Mr. Henderson . a letter ' outlining their concerns about the increasing foreign ownership in the county. When MPP Jack Riddell raised the issued in the 'legislative assembly, Mr. Henderson told the house Huron County federatioe had "sent him a nice apology". in Mr. Van Beer's words. The -federation &rector said_ "neither Merle or 1 had sent him an apology." Mr. Van Beers said the minister told the farmers his figures showed 0;ifi; 5,000 acres of Ontario farmland is owned by foreign investors. Mr. Van Beers said a Rural Development Outreach Project (RDOP) study done by the University of Guelph has found there are over 7,000 acres of farmland owned by absentee owners. , Mr. Van Beers said concern about foreign ownership is now causing an uproar in Mr. Henderson's home riding in Lambton County where 900 acres was sold to a non-resident. Mr. Van Beers said concern over non-resident ownership is "snowballing now", and he said federation members will be keeping up the pressure on the, minister to take action on the issue. Mr. Van Beers said Mr. Henderson can use a ministerial order to put a freeze on non-resident pur- chases of farmland while registration of these pur- chases takes place. Mr. Van Beers said the four farmers who met with the agriculture minister gave up a "beautiful day" when they could have been harvesting crops on their farm. He said in addition to the Huron County Federation's resolution. they tilso presented the minister with resolutiops from the Women's Institute • and Colborne Township council which expressed concern over non-resident ownership of farmland, Following their meeting with Henderson, the Huron delegation met with Jack Riddell, Huron MPP and Liberal agricultural critic in the legislature and Murray Gaunt, MPP for Huron - Bruce; They also met with the New Democratic Party's agricultural csitic, Donald MacDonald. Mr. Riddell and Mr. Gaurit told the delegation the minister is not, prevented from taking action by the bill now before the legislature.lt is very simple ttler'Said/to attach an anktiament to the bill placing a freeze on the purchase of Ontario farmland by foreign non-resident interests for the time period covered by the bill.. TENTATIVE PLANS Huron Federation of Agriculture president, Merle Gunby, said there are tentative plans to take a resolution to the Ontario Federation of Agriculture asking the OFA to request a freeze on the sale of Ontario farmland to foreign absentee owners. The Huron federation hopes the clout of a resolution from the pro- vincial organization may have a greater effect on the minister. Mr. Gunby said the Ontario agriculture minister finally admitted at the Thursday meeting there is a problem with foreign absentee ownership in Huron at least. Last month the Huron Federation called for the resignation of the minister unless he took immediate action to curb the sale of Ontario's farmland to foreign absentee interests. Mr. Hendersons reponse to the call for his resignation was to quote yet again, the results of a ministry of agriculture study which says land belonging to foreign absentee owners in the WORRIED ABOUT SMOKING?
