Both interruptions were blamed on gale- force winds which ripped through central Ontario. In both cases at Balm Beach, broken branches and a tree that was knocked down by the high winds cut power. Firefighters were called out at 2:15 p.m. and again at 11:05 p.m. after small fires were ignited from broken power lines. Breaches in Act? Dear Editor: This letter is in regards to persons wholesaling and trafficking of fluid milk products in the Province of Ontario, illegally, outside the regulations of the Ontario Milk Act. This situation was brought to the attention of the Milk Commission of Ontario a number of years ago. Information was given to the Milk Com- mission, and the Milk Industry Branch regarding these breaches of the Milk Act. Following this information a letter was sent to all processors and non-processors on July 25, 1980, from the Milk Commission. It indicated that only the processors or non-processor distributors could legally wholesale fluid products. Following that letter and after conferring with Ontario Dairy Council, the Licensed Independant Dairy Distributors of Ontario took the position that at least some of these "agents" might be licensed in some way. L..1.D.D.O. presented three briefs in that regard to the Milk Commission, Aug. 16, 1980, March 2, 1981, and July 15, 1981. Viewing the agent question, and the continuing breaches of the Milk Act, in hind sight, we are now of the opinion that L.I.D.D.0O. took the wrong route. In fact L.1.D.D.O., in accepting any kind of legalising of these so called "agents'"' and, of course the Milk Commission in condoning the continuing appointments of these illegal people was, and is, atrocious. The Milk Commission should make sure the Milk Act is being upheld. It is their responsibility to see that the Milk Industry Branch police the act. They must prosecute people who knowingly are breaking the law. There are firms supplying fluid milk products to people who have no licence, and those people are wholesaling that product. Some people are traf- ficking in fluid milk products to larger house accounts. They do not have a licence to buy and sell that product, via the Milk Act, nor do they have a P.C.V. licence from the Province to traffic or haul that product. It is our opinion that people who sell fluid milk products to the ultimate consumer (caterers, home service, etc.) are deemed to have a shopkeeper licence and, do not require a processor or non-processor licence, from the Milk Com- mission. Each non-processor has to make assurances to the Milk Commission, the Health Board, the Department of Agriculture to able him or her to have and keep a licence to distribute fluid Milk Products. How long will the Province of Ontario allow the law to be broken before it acts against illegal agents? Regulation 629-- 104--No person shall supply for resale fluid Milk Products to, or pasturized Milk for, any other person who is, (a) not a holder of a licence under this regulation; or (b) not exempt from the act or this regulation.
