In our case this was the dairy industry as well as beef, hogs, cash crops, poultry and general farming. I'm sure many of our farmers will be interested in MP Alex Shepherd's suggestion that labor is only needed on a seasonal basis. There is no question that our day work demands are higher in the summer periods, particu- larly with haying, but otherwise jobs occur year- round.

We also place a large number of permanent workers (102 last year) and our system is recognized across Canada as an access to information leading to jobs. I could fill this newspa- per with information in respect to various contri- butions that have been made in respect to area programs and services now taken for granted. Perhaps its time to be reminded who first intro- duced area hoof trimmers, relief milkers, dairy train- ing courses (some of these people now have their own farms), farm co-op educa- tion in schools etc. Who fought to get Port Perry 'the local job bank kiosk, information centre, jobs- Ontario and Durham College, and even more important, who will in the future? We are particularly con- cerned about the "Dur- rd Whe Eka an 197 Queen Street, Port Perry Hours: Mon. to Sat. 9:30 to 5:30, Fri. until 8:00 & Sun. 12 noon to 5:00 A Special Thank You to our customers for their patiente during our renovations! ham Farm and Rural Family Resources" pro- gram sponsored by the Bethesda Women's Institute, which provides flexible on-farm quality care for children. We sup- port and accommodate this program extensively from this office and it's innovation is now rec- ognized across Canada with many locations copy- ing its success. All these points aside, the greatest loss is going to be to farmers in need of help and those people without employment, par- ticularly young people who depended on getting some work through our office. What is particularly annoying is that there has been no attempt for dis- cussion as to either possi- ble alternates or efficien- cies. One has to wonder what concern there really is for the many people in "need of assistance and work in this area.

Mr. Clayton Connell's letter was more of an attack on the NDP position on freedom of choice, rather than a defence of the doctors' mass shutdown on their offic- es. The doctors of Canada have been opposed to any kind of government-regulated health care system since its inception by the Saskatchewan CCF govern- ment of Tommy Douglas 50 years ago. They have gone on strike in different provinces, vilified and ha- rassed governments of all political stripes, and con- tinue to do so to this very day. The mass shutdown of doctors' offices was recom- mended by the doctors' union, Ontario Medical Asso- ciation, and supported by the Port Perry level of that union, Ontario Medical Association, and supported by the Port Perry level of that union. I do not believe that the doctors of Ontario will be satisfied until they blackmail Ontarians into having a two-tier medical system or abolish the system completely. That is why so many of them are moving or threatening to move to the USA. Re Lori Kay of Bowmanville: I would say that all MPPs get the same allotment of funds to operate their constituency offices and that Gord Mills never spends his full allotment and returns the unspent amount to the Provincial Treasurer. By comparison, Lyn McLeod overspent the 1993 Liberal operating budget by 10 per cent or $336,000. If she can't man- age her Liberal operating budget of $3.9 million, how is she going to manage a $57 billion Ontario budget? And she wants to be premier. As for Llewellyn Jones of Nestleton, may I say that the doctors do have the right to close their offices, but they did so as a protest against the Social.Contract. Their moral obligation to serve the people of this area was secondary to their objection on average in this province would like to shift their share of the depres- sion onto others.
