REPRESENTATION Insure your future and that Ontario Is there any place youd rather be Ontarians are the kind of people who wouldnt be here if there was any place better are people who came from a hundred lands and stayed to build People with backbone and brawn and a hunger to succeed Men and women whove created a stan dard of living in decades that other lands worked centuries to build If we have a flaw its our chronic modesty may be proud to be Ontarians and Canadians they Just seldom tell anyone From an economic point of view thats wrong The more people we have boosting Ontario and Canada the better it is And weve got a lot to boost with At a time when the dollar is having many demands made on it can note that provincial taxes have held the tine in 1970 And wc had a surplus to boot Yet needed programs have not been neglected The Ontario Housing Corporation for example has housed 120000 people to date and currently has almost a billion dollars worth of programs active in nearly 200 Ontario Communities We need a vigorous economy of course to support these important programs And thats where you come in Though our productivity has doubled in ten years and our incomes in twelve Ontarians dont sit on their successes Theres a demanding decade ahead full of challenges and opportunities to make the quality of our lives better yet To meet these challenges weve got to believe in ourselves Which when you think about it isnt such a bad idea you boost Ontario Ontario and Canada get a little stronger Government of Ontario John Prime
