by Gord Mills, M.P.P, Durham East Section Two • The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Wednesday, February 10,1993 3 Opinion and Comments Concern Over Home Health Care *! The big news last week, down at £ the "Park", was of course the cabinet shuffle. My analysis in last week's col- e umn proved to be correct. And I wasn't \ privy to any "insiders" knowledge ei- £ thcr! " One newspaper reporter described '.• the shuffle as re-arranging the deck-chairs deck-chairs on the Titanic. Our government, jf right from the beginning, has been sub- ' 'jeeted to the most vicious sniping any ; Ontario government has ever faced. Oil's like listening to a broken record. ! The critics want to have it both ways. '--If we cut government spending - as we " have done dramatically in every ministry ministry - the reaction is outrage, "How cold . hearted can the NDP be," wail extremists. extremists. But when the government creates ..jobs through spending on social housing, housing, capital works, and infrastructure, /the line suddenly changes. "Spendthrifts!" "Spendthrifts!" Naive fools!" Beverly hillbil- v lies!" - they can't run a peanut stand cry the columnists. We have come through, in difficult times too, on rent control. Employment equity. Social housing. Restructuring of the health care system. Wage protection protection for workers whose companies fold. Sustainable forestry. Environmentally Environmentally sound planning policy. Nonprofit Nonprofit child care. But never satisfied, when we t^ke this leadership, the skeptics skeptics call it, "ideologically driven." Of course we have had our problems. problems. What government hasn't? It shouldn't be any great news that many NDP activists, in addition to Peter Kor- mos and Dennis Drainville, have strongly disgreed with government actions. actions. Perfect harmony and solidarity do not reign within the NDP or its caucus. caucus. I can assure you that the Liberals at Queen's Park, are not blessed with perfectharmony and solidarity either. The NDP have made some mistakes. mistakes. Some individual "bone headed" >: ■ '.A : ■ One of my major interests since be- 'ing elected an M.P. is how federal spending is shared between Ontario and other provinces. I'm concerned ' about the well-being of my home province. province. Also, from several years as a member of the Legislature with some experience as a provincial cabinet min- 'ister, I believe I've a pretty good un- • (lefstanding of the Ontario government's government's operations and requirements. One thing I have found since coming coming to Ottawa is that, like many others, I'd been harbouring some misunderstanding misunderstanding about what parts of Canada get the greatest benefits from Confederation. Confederation. This was learned from examin- ' ing not only federal government statistics, statistics, but also studies done by ' independent groups such as the Fraser ' Institute and at the University of Calgary- Calgary- Contrary to what many seem to 'think, Quebec has not been the biggest ' beneficiary of Ottawa's grants and spending. On a dollars-per-person basis basis -- the fairest measurement - Manitoba Manitoba has done better. But in the overall, 'picture portion of Ottawa money has been going to Atlantic Canada. ' ' That shouldn't be surprising, when one considers the comparatively poor î"é'coriômic conditions on the east coast. |! Presumably we all, as Canadians, ac- ' cept the basic premise of Confedera- -fion that the wealthier provinces should help those less fortunate ■ religions. religions. In one of these columns recently, I "wrote about the money problems facing facing all levels of governments and its ' impact on Ottawa and Queen's Park. '■This brought a rather surprising response response from Durham Centre MPP - Drummond White. In claiming I : wasn't protecting the interests of Onta- ' rio and the Durham Region, he staled "that' of every federal dollar, 46 cents 'Iconic from Ontario, and only 30 cents arc ' spent here. (According to my I sources, the correct figures are 47 J cents and 39 cents, respectively.) Mr. White continued with a rather •amazing statement: "Ask tiny businessmen businessmen how long their business would survive at that rate of return." One has to assume he's arguing that Ontario should get back at least as much as, or even more than, its taxpayers taxpayers contribute to Ottawa. Carrying such logic to its conclusion, he then presumably presumably is talking about Ontario separating separating itself economically (and politically?) politically?) from the rest of Canada. That would mean substantially slashing federal federal aid to Atlantic Canada and other poorer areas. I'd be very surprised of Mr. White's federal NDP leader agrees with that. His criticism of me stems from the Ontario NDP government's contention that Ottawa owes it another $4 billion in annual transfer payments.'As I said in the previous column, all gdvem- ments right now are extremely tight for money, and they're all leaning on the same taxpayers. If Ottawa were to give the province such an amount, while it might help the Ontario government financially, financially, it also would mean a whopping whopping increase in federal taxes for Ontario Ontario residents. So, who gains? I'm satisfied Ottawa is being as generous to Ontario as currently is possible. possible. For example, aside from grants and transfers, more than half of all federal federal contract spending is done in this province. : (Quebec gets about 20 per cent.) And while not denying the recession's recession's impact locally, it is a fact that just over 40 percent of the total national national economy is made up of businesses and industries located in Ontario. Recent Recent figures on inter-provincial trade show that during the second half of the last decade, Ontario enjoyed a $12.5 billion annual surplus in sales to other parts of Canada. All the other provinces provinces had significant trade deficits, except for Quebec with a $2.5 billion surplus. Whatever its present problems, Ontario Ontario still is doing considerably better than most of the rest of Canada. It's encouraging to see that the Ontario Ontario NDP government, after its earlier profligacy, now is striving to control spending - as the current federal government government has done since taking office in 1984. I wish Mr. White and his colleagues colleagues every success in that regard. behaviour by cabinet ministers I have deplored as much as our harshest crit- ' ic. Blit we have implemented reforms that no other government has dared to do. Despite constant criticism and fiscal fiscal attack, we have gone to the wall time and again for the vulnerable and the marginalized. With the budget looming, the headlines headlines will once again scream that the deficit has, "ballooned," "soared," and "skyrocketed." All the while, ' when Mulroney misses his budget by almost $10 billion, the story sleeps on Page 3 of the business section. The federal government has cut billions billions in transfer payments, forcing the unemployed off federal programs and on to provincial ones. We will be faced with even further costs through the denial denial of unemployment benefits to those, who' for one reason or another, 'decide to leave their job "without cause!" Getting back to local issues. Trees for spring planting are now available at the Orono Forest Station. They have a good selection of stock but there are some restrictions. You must have at least five acres to plant on, the.trees are 10 cents each, the minimum order is 100, and there is an administration fee of $10. Once again, the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and the Ministry of Culture, Culture, are providing non-profit organizations organizations with an opportunity to bring the names and achievements of their volunteer volunteer staff to the forefront of the public's public's attention by nominating them for a Volunteer Service Award or an Outstanding Outstanding Achievement Award. If you wish to nominate an adult volunteer for 5, 10, or 15 consecutive years of service, service, and youth volunteers who are at least 18 years or under for two or more years of service, please contact my office office in Bowmanville for details. Until next week - remember, we all have a choice, to plough new ground or just let the weeds grow. We, the office staff representing the Commercial Agencies providing Community based Health Care in Durham Durham Region, are very concerned about the future direction in Home Health Care. If the proposals put forth by Minister of Health, Frances Lankin, and the NDP. government arc passed, our Home Health Care support system and client care will suffer drastically. The proposals would dictate that 90% of all in home support assistance, (i.c. homemakers) would be directed to "Not-For-Profit" organizations. A government should create a monopoly only when it is in the best interest of' the public. In this case, we, the Commercial Commercial Providers of Community based health care, feel that it would not be in the best interest of the public. public. It is beneficial to have competition and client freedom of choice when providing health care in the home. This maintains the quality and high standards that we are presently providing. providing. We believe that it should be brought to the attention of the public that "Not-For-Profit" does not mean the same as free. Not-For-Profit depends depends on government funding through taxpayers' charitable dollars as well as the fees charged to the public for their Home Support Services. Through this government funding they are able to provide, continuing education to their Staff, however, Commercial providers do not have access to these government government monies. Commercial Providers are committed to pay for their staff's continuing education via their profits, yet our services are available at éxact- ly the same cost to government programs programs as not for profit. With our aging population, and shortage of long term care beds, and ,the future expansion need for quality ' 'in-home care', there will be a greater need for 'in-home' support, and therefore, therefore, certainly enough employment opportunities for all health care providers. providers. If the NDP government passes these proposals, without direction from their task force or without listen ing to the voice of the informed Ontario Ontario public directly involved with these issues, approximately 20,000 jobs will be lost across the province. Can we afford afford yet another large influx of unemployment! unemployment! This would be directed to our mature women, single working mothers, and families depending on two incomes, who would experience a great deal of difficulty finding suitable, suitable, new employment centred around their family commitments. In closing, Commercial Agencies are not, nor have any desire to put the Not-For-Profit Agencies out of business. business. We firmly believe in a system that provides a balanced, mixed care provision of service. There is definitely definitely sufficient need in the community to keep all agencies viable. ; Please contact your MPP to voice your opinion. By Elinor Tureck "Comcare Ltd." Liberal Candidate Offers Solutions To the Editor: The economic situation in Canada is becoming a crisis. We citizens look, around and ask "where are all our leaders and problem solvers?" Bigger government that taxes and spends more is not the answer. We need quality, quality, not quantity government and representatives representatives who listen and then act on the majority view. As a candidate for the Liberal nomination in Durham Riding, I believe believe the focus of the next federal government government must be: 1. Effective leadership that will get our economy working again to create jobs. I think that the Free Trade Agreement must be changed to a negotiated negotiated Fair Trade Agreement and our economic focus changed to one that benefits Canadians. 2. Hope must.be restored to Canadians Canadians by returning to a smaller and more efficient Government that taxes less, is responsive to citizens' concerns concerns and administers programs that work well and without time delays. 3. Our social safety net programs must be adjusted to fit the 90's in a way that achieves their objectives but are still affordable. I believe that, today, people are tired of hearing promises by politicians politicians and are waiting instead for solutions. solutions. I have been tempered by the "heat of politics" and enjoy being in the public eye. I believe in the "politics of consensus" whereby the prevailing constituency view is the proper view for a Member of Parliament to represent represent on issues in our democratic society. society.

In some ways, it just might. Then, residents would not be as worried about the impact of the landfill site on the lives of themselves themselves or their children on a daily basis. basis. The dump site is not something that the Town of Newcastle will accept accept gracefully. At least that is what people arc led to believe in a document document written by the town's Planning Department. ' ' But approval of the landfill site is not up to the municipality. - The town's planning department stated in its report that since the Interim Interim Waste Authority is a Crown agency, agency, it is only subject to "those provincial provincial acts and by-laws ' passed thereunder which contain a specific provision binding the Crown. Therefore, Therefore, as a strict legal matter, the IWA is not required to comply with the Municipal Municipal Act, the Planning Act, the Re- Know the Warning Signs of Stroke !

That means the IWA can do anything anything it dam well wants to do, without consulting anyone. That is like giving a kid a free rein in a candy store, wouldn't you think? The Town of Newcastle, like Pickering, Pickering, already shoulders the responsibility responsibility for hosting a dump site and a nuclear power plant. Neither municipalities want the dump site, However, one site of the five potential potential sites will bo chosen. Mayor Diane Hamrc is continually saying that she and her council do not want to sec another dump here, But, not much has been said to the IWA about the KK2 site by the politicians, politicians, front the sounds of things. All the sites in Pickering arc owiicd by the Ontario government, whereas the KK2 site is owned by private private citizens. That, in itself, looks rather quirky to me. Add to this, the fact that the IWA considers the KK2 site to be within an "urban shadow" which it describes as being land in "transitional use." (This land has been used as a farm for the last 142 years and there arc no plans for it to be otherwise, That's Transitional, eh?) Even the 1991 Durham Region Official Official Plan docs not envision urban development development anywhere in the vicinity of the KK2 site. But, with the coming of a dump site,' dçvelopmcnt would be there for everyone to sec, hear and smell. It certainly would be a sad sight if the piles of garbage grew while the lovely hill is diminished to cover the waste, It would certainly be the death of Ncwcaslle/Clarington, It would also be the death of dreams over 142 years old.
