"Even the published medicare} program costs in the province of Saskatchewan, the home of med-! icare, do not agree with their Ontario counterpart's proposal,"| he said.

The NDP program would be introduced in stages, he argued, and in the first stage there was "no reference to a drug plan or dental program' and "there is no indication as to how long the first stage may take". Under the NDP program, he went on, the industrial workers "'would achieve the right to pay a six per cent surcharge on in- come 'tax, where they now pay nothing. In my area this would amount to an average of $25 to $35 a year". There would also have to be an increase in other taxes to help cover the costs. He realized, he said, that the industrial workers covered by union agreements do not "'com- prise all the people of our prov- ince, I am also aware there are pocket areas where medical health coverage, with a modest premium, is needed, but on the other hand this bill provides free proximately one million of our people." He felt, that. for the family man in. the $3,000 to $4,300 in- come bracket, there should have been a larger measure of assis- tance, but concluded that "'re- gardiess of what point the assis- tance was cut off, there would also be a considerable hardship, and the program which is now before us is as far as the gov- ernment felt they could go un- less federal financial assistance was forthcoming."
