6 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville, June 19,1985 Hi Baseball Fans! I'm Daniel Gordon Allison and I turned one year old on April 21st, 1985. My parents are David and Shirley (nee Allin) Allison of Peterborough, Ont. I have a big brother Benjamin. My grandparents are Jean and Glenn Allin of Newcastle, Ont. and Elinor Allison of Thornhill, Ont. My great-grandparents are Ervan Rainey of Orono, Marjorie Dixon of Toronto and Beryl Allison of Brantford, Ont. Seniors Tighten Belts When asked to comment on the Budget, Yhetta Gold, President President of the National Advisory Advisory Council on aging (NACA) stated "I am pleased that, after a decade of discussion, the Government is finally moving ahead with pension reforms which will benefit future retirees. However, I am very unhappy with the fact that senior Canadians are being asked to tighten their belt once more to make a substantive substantive contribution to reducing the deficit. This is most unfair." Mrs. Gold explained that the amendments to the 'Pension Benefits Standard Act' proposed proposed by Mr. Wilson will establish establish improved standards for federally-regulated pension plans. Also, the more generous limits on tax-assisted tax-assisted savings for retirement will enable many Canadians to pun their retirement. "NACA," she stated, "would have hoped for a stronger commitment to inflation inflation protection and employee participation on pension management committees. Also, some indication of the Government's willingness to correct the inequity in the income tax system would have been welcome. The current system gives a clear disadvantage disadvantage to low income earners in planning their retirement." The President of NACA went on to say that "Unfortunately, many seniors will have the impression that the Government Government has broken its promises to redirect savings from program program changes to those most in need and not apply these to a reduction of the deficit." The partial de-indexing of OAS is expected to cost older Canadians $1.6 billion by the year 1990-91. This means that seniors receiving OAS and the supplement, many of whom are already below the poverty line, will be contributing $100 in 1986-87 to reduce the deficit and over $500 a year by 1990- 91. Add to this the partial de-indexing of personal exemptions, the elimination of the $50 federal personal tax reduction, the increases in federal sales and excise taxes and the reduction of $2 billion in transfer payments to the Provinces will have a dramatic dramatic effect on the purchasing power of seniors. "This is definitely a tough Budget, but not a fair one to seniors." According to Mrs. Gold, "Older Canadians, particularly those on a fixed income, are being asked to bear more than a fair share of the reductions proposed by Mr. Wilson." The Council has written to the Honorable Jake Epp to advise him that the proposed de-indexing of OAS will undermine undermine over time, the very concept concept of universality. Mrs. Gold concluded, "I have, therefore, urged the Minister to propose to his colleagues that low- income seniors should have their benefits fully protected. These benefits should continue to be fully indexed, OAS as well as GIS, in accordance with the Government's recognition recognition that the deficit should not be the responsibility of those in greatest need."
