ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, APRIL l4th, 1971 Seeoad Clasa Mail Regis~alion Number 0368 Pubiiahed every Thursday at the office of publieatioii Main Street., Orîno, Gnt*aio. Phone 983-5301 DISCONTENT BUILDING Discontent over theestablishment of Regional Goverament in the Oshawa area appears to be growingf and a recent survey of the Oshawa Coun- cil members seems to point out that the mai ority of the members wish to, have Osbawa wash its Lands of any Regional aspect in this area. 'th' city of Oshawva fears the loss of representa- tion açý wel), as, carryng ai) ad(Ed d -uïdn in re- gards the financial aspect. Both the,,.e fears could v eIl be warranted as one rends of discontent la the Niagara region where St. Catherines, the largest centre, is not favoured with representation by pop- ulation nor protected from supplying the financial basis for the whole region. With Oshawa's discontent and reluctant attitude along with other centres, especially la the rural areas, denoting the same frame of mind, the issue of Regional goverament la the Oshawa area may well be placcd on the sheif. We have always questioned the expendîture of one million odd dollars for the Oshawa Regional Area study. To our way of thinking the study has neyer spelled out la clear layman terms the con- ditions and financial asp~ects of the proposed region. Surely it would have cýeea much more reasonable to study the few conditions such as representation and financing to a point of some agreement before a full scale study was initiated. It certainly has been a waste of money and tinte and this is especi- ally so when the largest centre now recognizes the loss of representation as well as providing the fia- ancial basis for the area. Both these items could well have been considered ini the beginning with- out a year and a haîf study. The Provincial Government has a lot to bear in the study as the Province funded Most of the cost and was pushing Regional Goverament. Surely, if the Provincial Goverament wants and supports Regional Government throughout the populated sectors of the -Province, they must have reasons and proposais to put forth. <Withý the Government of Ontario promoting Rekional Governmnent there must have been a basis on which to establish such a form of government and thîs should be consistant throughout the Prov- ince. There was and is no need to establish million dollar studies la every area of the Province. Surely a souind basis can be/ý'set up by the Province on whîch to build a regional area. The bungle may flot bc at the local level but at all and we suspect that the Province bears inost of the blame again A MULTITUDE 0F CAUSES Over the past year and a haîf înuch has been w,,ritteni about unemployment la Canada and a host of writers and economists have expressed their views as solutions te the problem, which neyer looms too great until you become involvcd person- alIy It has been claimed by som e that the lowering of interest rates will set the economy advancing again whiie others wa~nmore housing to improve of import restrictions which would place our la- dustry in a most compettîve field on the home market wher e they are now protected. No doubt the latter would cause more unempioyment initi- ally but they dlaim over the long, haul Canada would gain. Others would seek more secondarlinl- dustry to use our natural resources rather than ex- po--rt the raw materiats. There is no doubt that most suagestions have somte good factors as -well as direrse factors. No one suggestirqg is going to eliminate unemploymtent for we are faced with a wide scope of-problems which no one body eau control, Our high standard of living increases the cost of exports and leaves littie roomt to operate within the material field within the country. 110ow many TVs can one watch or how many cars can une drive, It is flot likely that Japan will buy finished prod- ucts fromn Canada when she can produce these it- ems mach cheaper. Here we must wait until Jap- an's standards reach those of Canada and costs of production la that country increase. Certainly we are affected by the financial con- dition la the U.S. and other major countries. Over thesec we fiave no control. The list could well continue and antil a majority of these ills correct themselves Canada may con- tinue to face a high percentage of un'employmeht. It is a cycle and at the present time Canada ap- pears at a low ebb. ADULT- The effect of gamma.
