sautxbnotapplytokchasesmadiportofroa liberals dismiss tory farm plan challenge bymikeadler staff writer tory mpps dared liberal colleagues in markham this week to produce a farm support plan before pass ing a provincial greenbelt bill an allparty committee examining the bill defeated the surprise motion with liberal mpps dismissing it as a delaying tactic by a party that failed to help farmers while in office the greenbelt which would restrict develop ment on one million acres of greater toronto includ ing most of york regions remaining rural areas may become law next month the government says its necessary to curb urban sprawl and save natural areas and farms the greenbelt which would restrict development on one million acres of greater toronto including most of york regions remaining rural areas may become law next month tory mpp tim hudak erielincoln called on the liberals to adopt an agri cultural support strategy acceptable to ontario farmers before passing the bill reminding them the province has yet to respond to the recommendations of a panel it appointed last year on helping agriculture survive around urban areas they should at least have an agricultural policy that allows farmers to make a living by farming oak ridges mpp frank klees said mr hudak pointed repeatedly to markham mpp tony wongs com- ments in this newspaper in november indicating his government would have to make payments to farmers for the environmental serv ices they provide or quebecstyle price subsi dies liberals responded the tories had eight years to address viability of farming and did nothing a liberal caucus news release said the tories gutted the agriculture ministry cut ting 1000 employees while they were in power politicians of all stripes expressed their desire to help farmers in some way frank klees progressive conservative mpp for oak ridges says liberals are not allowing farmers to make a living mr wong said hes on record as opposing com pensation for greenbelt farmers based on specula tive land values but i do believe we should consider other support mecha nisms what these mechanisms should be was not suggest ed by the mpps at the hear ing or even york federation of agriculture president terry oconnor who told the committee he would leave that to government experts but mr oconnor did say a rural development commission is needed to direct private investment into farming the ontario govern ment could also learn from quebec programs that encourage farming and from british columbia and united states where gov ernment has set aside land to remain in agriculture with a suitable compensa tion package to keep the land productive he added vaughan developer silvio de gasperis com plained about greenbelts inclusion of the former duffin rouge agricultural preserve in pickering and of part of rural vaughan known as block 41 protecting the vaughan parcel west of hwy 400 and between kirby and teston roads as countryside does nt make sense because it is a growth area with 300- million infrastructure in place or promised he said this is not smart growth similarly developing the pickering preserve a farming area where mr de gasperis and a partner control most land and where he financed a city study favouring develop ment is a logical extension of growth in pickering he argued four days of committee hearings end today and may produce amendments to the greenbelt legislation bill 135
