Phone 983-5301 nhe Legisbature ef Ontario opened at Queen's Park this (week and this segssion coui be one whicih Will show some change. The governnent (has, rightly or wrongly, been buffeted with consicerable criticism during the past number ofîmonths and tWts attitude by the eiectorate could well sheve sonie inte'nded action whieh miglit becof a controver- eial nature. The formation of further areas into regional areas-wth regional governments could ibe one iphase ,,,here the brakes ýwiIlI e applied. The Rob>arts governsnent ini the last year lhas on1 a numnber o c 'ionk~s appeared to hauve passed legi4ation without kn'owing the. full ijnpUioatîo ns. This was -apparent with the formatin f the County Boar-ds of Education. The, principa;l aff 4I1tisnove to the larger areas was a sound one, we believe, but the fact remains that the govermuent was unaware of al-1 implications and werc »ne able to first in- forn the electorate -on these iinplïdeations. We refer to the condition whic{h arose when th.eL Côunty Boards 4evied their first tax rate ion a new bIais. Tfhis levy was governed by leg- lalation £rom the Province and Ïhad various effeets nt the municipal level. 8ome centres liac a decrease -in taxation whqle others ihad a conâideraMe juimp. Surely the govern- ment should have been aWare of thhs problem and couki havp informed the electorate on -the change or at laast in- formed the elected parties to the nqimerous boards. The government Was flot aware of this change and as ia result it was shown as inept in its knDwledge of its own legislation. Another area in wvhch the government lias not been sineere must Ibe that,,area relating to mediciare. The Prem- ier of Ontfarjo 'and bis coihiagues denouneed the federal 'hpdinare foia most vigorously as unsound, unwanted, un- timnely and one in vOhieh Orit"Io ru1 rot enter. Yet with- in days cf the last denouncement the government announced their entrance into the plin and that' OHSIP wüuld be one of the best. This is an affront to the intelhligence of the ei- ectorate tuho deserve much better than this, Agan there was ýa laek cf information to the public andation by the Minister of iieaIth sliowed he did not have .ul knvivledge of his own legisiatioti. 1 These are but two incidents where the govertmellt bas beCoqme cauelit in their own legisl1tion. Being a senior level of governartett the electorate expeets more coinpe- te'vce than bas been recentiy shovn.
