minister of transport he said mart Price While final statistics are not yet available there appears to have been little or no growth in Torontos air traf fic during 1975 but this in itself is not sufficient reason to throw away for all time the option for the people of the Toronto area ultimately to establish airport facilities at the Pickering site He continued We have reason to believe that the 1975 air traffic pattern is just that short term fluctuation in what would still ap ar to be an overall upwar trend at least in the foreseeable future He concluded 0n the like ly basis then that traffic will increase again it remains the view of the federal govern ment that second airport may well be needed in the Toronto area It is our inten cushiony ch tion to retain the option for the ple of Toronto of pro viding needed airport facilities at some time in the future Whether facilities are needed in 1980 or 1985 does not alter the long term need RENT FARM LAND There was no comment concerning the frozen lands surrounding the Pickering site was pleased to learn that the expropriated pro ties are being put to pro ucv tive use At present some 14000 acres have been rented out and are being devoted to farming Costs with respect to Pickering continue however In answer to written ques tion Mr Goodale stated that up to last March 3lst they had spent $119230000 on the site and they spent further $18255000 since with $56 million being for land and related costs and $12651000 for headquarters charges in cluding loan interest and fr inge benefits This $1375 million is ap
