romance The Free Press Wednesday April By Hartley Cotes It looks like the Ontano provincial government and the municipalities have kissed and made up Attending the first municipal conference at the ultra modem Ontano Science Centre in last week it wasnt difficult to see that the first steps in the scheme by the government to establish a new rapport with the municipalities have been a success Now they are holding hands Premier Jphn Robarts set the keynote by telling the municipal representatives from across the province that his government recognizes the need to find meaningful and workable solutions to the needs of the urban dweller while preserving the essential qualities of rural and small town Ontario What he was saying in effect was that the province found the job of trying to keep the peace a bit too much for his government so it was proposed to give the municipalities a bigger voice in their own affairs If they can straighten out their problems then it will take a tremendous load off the government shoulders Delegates to the conference once they got over their initial surprise at the government s decision to listen to their complaints and suggestions- took the opportunity to bend the premiers ears and those of his cabinet with considerable glee Hardest hitting speech of the two day conference was delivered by Mayor Newman of Whitby who called a spade a spade in the Friday session this reporter attended An businessman Mr Newman the conference that this was a point dc depart from which the municipalities of Ontario undertook to move in a direction of self responsibility I believe that there now exists in this province an of the need for change and the municipalities will demonstrate they have reached a level of sophistication in government which challenges that of the province Mr Newman suggested it was time to find solutions to those vexing problems that have upset the proposed reforms of local government and seriously influenced reaction to the program for regional government 20 AUCTION SALES CLEARING AUCTION SALE For JAMES BASS Line Caledon Lot 11 milt from SATURDAY MAY At 1 following Ford tractor with lender furrow plow excellent shape

cudgels to beat the education dog admitting he found no quarrel with the motives of the new county boards of education but took exception to the manner of implementation and the unruly financial results that have followed and caused us all to rebel They and not the municipalities arc now setting priorities that affect land use in the region he charged by virtue of their absolute control over where and when their available capital dollars will be spent in a region Where regional councils do not now exist Mr Newman said the municipalities want legislation enacted to provide for mumcipal control over the capital expenditures of county boards of education It was a popular point wilh delegates They applauded heartily He aimed another shaft at the assessment department warning the deferment of reassessment until will postpone needed reform of municipal government He said reassessment was the cornerstone arriving at an DENTAL DR LEONARD Dental Surgeon Suite No Hlnton I7A Mill St

CHIROPRACTIC equitable level of taxation for both urban and rural people and felt the job should be done on a county rather than a local bases Education and assessment have conditioned the municipalities reaction to regional government he said His biggest stick was wielded on behalf of neighboring municipalities when Mr Newman opposed the expansion of Metro Toronto Expansion of the Metro boundaries Mr Newman charged could destroy the economic base of neighboring counties and produce a political power lint would challenge the authority of the provincial government The Toronto bugaboo was challenged by Metro representatives who claimed the city expanded by 50 000 people yearly and needs space for urban expansion Mr Newman buttressed his case with statistics far too numerous to list here but suggested if the quality of life in the province was going to be compatible with needs there was a case for more intervention by the government a suggestion Mr Robarts advanced in Ins opening remarks on the fust night of the conference Metro representatives scoffed at this claiming they had no special privileges from the Ontario cabinet and t expect to get any no matter how growth developed Municipal representatives from smaller centres pointed out however that the bulk of the present government support emanates in the smaller Ontario communities and a larger more powerful Metro Toronto could present problems Mr Newman compared the cost of government at all levels to the rise of the gross national product and found some startling figures Cost of government increased by some 144 per cent the period from to l7 while incomes rose only 104 percent and the GNP went up only per cent He pointed out thai the increase in federal spending was almost identical with the increase in the gross national product the rate of increase for provincial and municipal spending was more llun twice the rate of growth of the His speech which received a standing ovation concluded with six proposals including suggestions that a comprehensive program of regional government be proceeded with supported by access to new forms taxation and in the immediate future by unconditional provincial grants Larlicr in the conference Darcy McKcough the Chatham cartographer who remaking Ontario face outlined where the stood on regional plans and called for strong local governments strong enough to exercise real power He referred to the postponement of the Peel region because of the lack of a consensus but admitted development pressures have not diminished On the contrary said I am convinced reform is needed and needed soon He warned municipalities in the two counties the was not cotng to stand by as a passive bystander the lace his need There was a hint that the government be
