Elsewhere on this page. letter writer Norman Gunn disputes this principle, calling it a "soeialist's red herring being drawn across the free- enterprise trail." Mr. MacDonald points out (using DBS figures) that of the billion dol- lars in mineral wealth produced in Ontario last year, just $9 million, or less than one p.c.. was returned to the government in the form of royalties and Mining taxes. ' Here then is an enormous source of _ income which clearly srhourd be used to reduce income and sales taxes and yet it unjustly escapes provincial taxation. In Ontario, because of the shame.. fully small royalty charged for pri- vate control of very promising are Natural Resources & School Taxes When the party's over a Cascade 40 electric water heater can have its finest hour “Whiz 31161118 Telephone CH 1-5211 Authorized as Second Clue Mail, Post Office Dept.

By levying a stiff royalties tax. the holding corporations would either begin production immediately or get off the property so someone else can start mining it. As the system now operates, it is comparable to _the On- tario government renting a mansion to a rich man for a dollar. If this is socialism the Weston Times is completely for it. Mr. MacDonald suggested that if the enormous revenue that could be obtained by charging "rent" for use of Ontario's natural resources is ob- tained, crushing homeowner real es- tate taxes devoted to education costs could be greatly reduced. s---r-oarsoeisrtts.aov-v--d of leaving more than I gift at a party: on: boon stuck with a tutti-fnstti. topped tablecloth?

They follow my friend Walter Gordon and talk about economic autonomy.
