nl a Ae 0 \ - > J) a a ~ dt A » Al ¥ 1 IN J | A PORT PERRY STAR, habs andiinnibaw dais Thursday, May 13th, 1965 Report From Parliament By Michael Starr, M.D. The Government has been adamant in their refusal to ex- tend an increase to the old age pensioners of this country in spite of the serious situation in which most of them find them- selves in their effort to live on $76 a month, and in spite of the pleas of the Members of the Opposition on their behalf. It was felt that some action to be taken might have been in- dicated in the Budget. A feel- ing of disappointment amongst our senior citizens has resulted. There ig no doubt in my mind that Members of Parliament in the Opposition will continue to fight on their behalf until such time as the Government takes this much needed action. Many written questions plac- ed on the Order Paper are being answered by various depart- ments, One of the questions that has been prevalent in the House of Commons in recent days has been about the stated intention of the Government to buy cars direct from the manu- facturer, Since these cars will not, be purchased from fran- chised dealers of the automobile industty, queries have been made as to what disposal will be made of these cars when they are no longer serviceable. The Government has not given any specific answer on this matter. During the oral question period, the Members take ad- vantage of this opportunity to put questions to various Min- sters on matters that are purely local, as well as national in im- portance. In many instances they get direct and reasonable answers from certain Ministers, whereas in some cases they are in the evasive category. A few days ago a question was asked by one of the Mem- bers of the Conservative Party regarding the adoption of "0 Canada" as the National An-! them. It was suggested by this Member that the Prime Minis- ter give serious consideration to the launching of a national contest to provide "O Canada" with new and modern words which would be acceptable to all Canadians The Prime Minister replied that during this session of Parliament he hoped that we would be able to adopt "O Can- ada" officially but he expressed some doubts as to the desira- bility of holding a contest to provide new words. He quali- fied this by stating that he would be glad to give congidera- tion to the suggestion. Another Member followed by asking that when such a Bill was brought forward the word- ing of "O Canada" would have one version which would be applicable to all Canadians. This was a very interesting suggestion to the Prime Minis- ter and he felt that it had a good deal to commend it. Many of these questions which are put forward to the Government on the Orders of the Day as suggestions for fu- ture policy are adopted in one form or another.

May/6b " 47 ". =v a CH RARE TL EA A SE ~M the members of the Government | when they are in the process of forming legislation, The Minister of Finance made an announcement recently con- cerning the present situation of the Mint with regard to the production of mint sets of un- circulated coins. He advised the public that this year the Mint was confronted with an enormous wave of orders for these coins, They were estim- ated at some six million sets. 19 YRS OLD? When you turn 19 you're no longer cov- ered by your parents' Hospital Insurance. To keep insured, you must take out indi- vidual membership within 30 days. Get your application form at a bank, a hospital, or from the Commis- sion. NEWLY WED? The 'family' Hospital Insurance premium must now be paid to cover husband and wife. Notify your 'group' without de- lay OR, if you both pay premiums direct, noti- fy the Commission. NEW JOB? To keep insured follow the instructions on the Hospital Insurance Certificate of Payment 'Form 104' that your present employer is required to give you on leaving. Your ONTARIO HOSPITAL INSURANCE Plan It was decided at that time that the Mint would accept all orders received on the first day, which happened to be January 2nd, and would ship the coins there- after as and when the sets could be produced. These orders iuvolved some two million sets. The remaining orders, covering another four million sets, had to be returned to the senders, Since then the facilities of the Mint have been expanded and up to a few days ago some 1,100,000 sets had been shipped out to collectors. The balance of the two million sets will be produced and shipped out before the end of July. As of Thursday, April 29th of this year, the Mint will resume accepting orders for the 1966 gets of uncirculated coins from all who want them and whose requirements are not already met. The production of these sets will be continued until all legitimate orders have been tilled, even if it takes the te- mainder of 1965 and part of 1966 to finish the job, They are priced at $4.00 per set and each orden for a seb or a maxi- mum of five sets per person should be accompanied by a re- mittance and be in the name of a single individual. The Minister gave an assur- ance that the Mint will be able to provide everyone with his or her full entitlement and thliere should be no need for ordinary cellectors to pay high specula- tive prices for these coin sets, Everyone will be able to obtain their requirement of up to five sets at the issue price of $4.00 per set.
