upheld in January ruling CEMAs jurisdiction to impose levies and regulate the marketing of eggs Peter Hoggs counsel for group of Ontario egg producers opposing the legislation told the court the Farm Products Marketing Agencies Act the second piece of federal legislation governing the operations of marketing boar ds is unconstitutional for two reasons The act purported to regulate the marketing of

third day and threatens to force can cellation of St Jean Baptiste Day festivities scheduled to start early Friday But the governments margin for manoeuvre was cut Wednes day when 10 regional associ ations of bulktrucking com panies which traditionally compete with the independents for government business urged Lessard to stand his ground They announced full support for new regulation that would change the system of work allo cation in the industry and abol ish the distinction between per mits granted to companies and those granted to the independ ents who own and operate their own trucks Lessard emerged from heated emergency debate in the national assembly and firmly refused to yield to the independ ents who claim the regulation will destroy their association by opening the door to cut throat competition from com panies The main opposition par ties the Liberals and Union Nationalehounded Lessard and reiterated their support for the independent associations demand for legislative hearings on theissue To add to the governments problem organizers of St Jean Baptiste Day celebrations told reporters the mass of trucks which now virtually surround the old walled section of town will prevent the June 24 festivi tliles from taking place on sched Many of the trucks are block ing the narrow roads leading to and running across the Plains of Abraham the hub of the out door festival to honor the pa tron saint of French Canadians While clogged streets im patient celebration organizers king feud and opposition hounding has created considerable pressure on the government Lessard has refused to break the deadlock Spokesmen for the trucking companies say they are keeping close eye on the situation and do not rule out the possibility of bringing their own cavalcade of rigs into town if the government gives in The dispute appears to re volve around the prospect of more trucks than bulkhauling jobs Many of the jobs are done on contract with the govern ment After meeting here com pany spokesmen said the inde pendent truckers currently ex ercise monopoly because they have the right to 75 per cent of government work Lessard says his regulation would lead to
