crowd here tonight well said a voice from the back of the hall don t be too pleased we ain t all dense stan hall mpp joining in the budget debate in the ontario legis lature last week spoke strongly against allowing foreign vegetable oil or any other material to enter canada free of duty in competition with domestic agricultural products mr hall though he did not spec- ifically name the dairy industry was obviously referring to threatened competition from synthetics which are already being used in the states in the manufacture of ice cream and which it is feared may invade the cheese market as well following is a verbatim report of mr hall s speech mr speaker in rising in this as sembly to apeak on thb budget de bate and in my humble way to try and contribute something to the welfare of my fellow men and also to this wonderful country that it is my privilege to live in first i would like to say that i am cana- idan born a citizenship that i am proud of and i would say that 1 have a right to be but with that i have a great responsibility as a citizen mr speaker the subject that i wish to speak on is the greatest way of life and the greatest basic industry of our country agricul ture my ancestry helped grow the aar24 first agricultural products of this great country and we have farmed in this country for six generations my people came to this country be cause they had faith in it faith in what this new country held in store for them and also faith in what they could bring with them to a new land and they with other pi oncers of this land established thtose things that they had faith in those british institutions of free dom that have laid the foundations of ou western christian civhiza tion our christian homes snd churches where everyone can wor ship god according to the dictates of his own conscience our schools and the right of the use of a free franchise where the people have the right to elect whatever form of government they so desire mr speaker today one branch of agriculture is asking some form of protection from foreign materials that are coming on our markets in competition to certain animal pro ducts produced by that line of agriculture i expect that during this session we will hear jrom many other honourable members on this subject mr speaker we farmers believe in free enterprise we believe in a competitive market where qual ity and services should determine the prices we should pay for those articles that are necessary in our viy of making t living for our selves and our families mr speikci have we n compe mr speaker is it fair to- the farmers of this province that for eign vegetable oil or any othet material should be allowed to come into this country free of duty in competition to any agricultural pro duct and especially if they are to displace any product that is produ ced from animal products mr speaker when you allow anything to happen that upsets the balance of nature then you are causing a very great injustice to our country our forests the wild life that live in our forests the fish in our streams and lakes domestic animals- and the soil of our coun try all exist on the balance of nat urc that was so arranged by the great creator of all things it is the top six inches of the soil that any country exists on and if there is not a balance of livestock to return to the soil those things necessary to keep that soli in a fertile condition then it will soon become useless and will develop into a desert if we want an exam pie go to egypt once the granary of the then known world mr spea ker i would urge that the farmers of canada be given the same protection that is given to all other producers and especially on those products that are necessary for the production of food wednesday evening feb 25 10o3 the
