Speaking at the Associat- ion's 54th annual convention in Toronto, Periard said that the Associatjon.has informed the Superintendent of Insur- ance for Ontario that it approves, in concept, the no-fault vari-plan proposed by the Insurance Bureau of Canada. The Association's approv- al is subject to two basic conditions, says Periard. "One, there must be a mini- mum form of collision cover- age to replace the loss of tort for vehicle-to-vehicle dam- age. This must not be elective or optional. Two, medical and rehabilitation coverage must be primary over all other types of insur- ance, government plans or schemes excepted." Periard stressed that the public feels strongly that no uninsured vehicles should be allowed on the road. Too, he said, "We believe the public demands fast, effective sett- lement of vehicle damage claims along with reimbur- sement for travel expense during vehicle tie-ups from . an insured peril." Periard reported that the Association's . board of directors has concluded that the constructive and continu- ing modification and improvement of the no-fault vari-plan has resulted in a concept and product which will benefit the majority of people in Ontario, and penal- ize few, if any. In the Association's opinion, the plan will be acceptable to and in the best interests of consumers. "We feel that if vari-plan is introduced, as we have out- lined to government, and if the recommendations that we have suggested to the Insurance Bureau of Canada are incorporated, we will have a better plan of insur- ance in Ontario in which claims will be paid faster and on a more equitable basis," said Periard. He called for a major industry and public educa- tional program to acquaint insurance buyers, claims- personnel and other insur- ance people with no-fault insurance. The Ontario Insurance Agents" and Brokers' Assoc- iation represents 2,200 indepentent insurance agents and brokers in the province.

Ifit = doesn t . you pay for it, regulations: 1 \ i OF CANADA Almost everyone can tell you what a newspaper is. In Canada it is either a daily or weekly. Nearly 80 per cent of all Canadians read a newspaper every week. They contain news about you and your town. But there are newspapers and in many places there are "shoppers" or '"throwaways." Some contain some news, they serve a purpose, but their primary purpose is advertising. And, they do not legally qualify under the definition of a newspaper. But what is the legal definition of a newspaper? The most common definition under postal "The primary purpose of such \ publication is to inform the public, and it must have a paid following of readers." Your local newspaper's prime function is to present the news . . . honestly and fully. That's all. They offer maximum local identification with your community. Ard their paid circulations are positive proof of their merit, their influence and their being wanted in your community. NEWSPAPERS DELIVER THE LOCAL STORY.
