"protests Gordon Hill, President, Ontario Fed- eration of Agriculture. "This is one more threat showing the need for farmers to be deeply involved in long-term land use planning. We will not tolerate highways, in- dustry. or decaying garbage that unnecessarily waste our land." Metro Toronto politicians are planning to freight 400,000 tons of the city's garbage yearly to rural areas. The garbage is to be buried in trenches and cove- red with loose fill. Govern- ment sources have leaked that four out of the five dump sites being considered are in Wellington county. "These cities must not be allowed to ravage good productive soil, simply to hide their refuse. It is their garbage, let them dispose of it -- on their own land. "We do not want their vermin, disease, or the risk to our water table." Metro officials have suggested dig- ging *trenches to five feet from the water table. Peter Hannam, Wellington Fed- eration of Agriculture presi- dent says, "The water table shifts dramatically with sea- sons, here. Dumping will not be safe. If there is no risk, why are they going to this great expédnse to get the garbage out of Toronto?"

Regulations covering temporary shelters are now being developed by the Ontario Government. While licensing of these shelters under the new regulations will not be required until the winter of 1973-74, the Ministry of the Environment, in co-operation with the Ministry of Natural Resources will launch an intensive inspection program during the coming winter. This program is intended to ensure that waste materials generated by activities on frozen lakes and rivers are adequately collected and deposited at appropriate land-based disposal sites, and, farmer. maintains cities temporary shelters are removed from the ice in must eventually pay the sufficient time before the spring break-up. price for efficient regen- With a concentrated program of education and eration or compacting sy- stems.

The services industry continues to be a source of high employment opportun- ity. It is anticipated that there will be a demand for dayworkers, housekeepers, and babysitters but with the end of the holiday season there may be fewer require- ments for restaurant help during the winter months. The construction industry is beginning to show a slow down although activity in residential construction is 'still holding its own. Local labour requirements have been easily filled. The number .of job vac- ancies for office workers remained steady with most of the openings being for qualified and experienced secretaries and accounting clerks. There were very few openings for bookkeepers, clerk typists and general office clerks. A continuing demand ex- ists for manager trainees and registered nursing assistants. 'Other occupa- tions in demand are social workers with qualifications and accountants.
