' At the same time, it is intended to provide a stimulus to the Canadian economy by directing tax reductions to those people who will spend the money on basic Canadian produced goods and services such as food and shelter. As my colleague, Monique Begin. Minister of National Health and Welfare, said when she announced the changes, this type of program design is now possible because experiencewith many of our social programs, gained over the last several years, has taught government how to ensure that more of the money goes where it is needed most. The refundable credit will provide full benefits even to families who do not pay income taxt _ Thus, a one-child family would receive a $200 credit at $18,000, $100 at $20,000, and would cease to receive the credit as the family income rose above $22,000. Here the objective is to ensure both that the 1.5 million children who currently live in poor families receive a better start in life and that middle income families are assisted in providing for their children. The basic amount of the refundable tax credit is $200 per year for each child under the age of 18. By BARNEY DANSON 4 MP â€" York North Changes in the system of Family Allowances and the new refundable Child Tax Credits are now in effect and are worthy of careful con- sideration as you make out your tax returns.

Forhan seeks co-operation in disposing area garbage Regional councillor Gord Rowe said the chairman’s suggestion was “the most con- structive thing he had heard all day.“ But the trend is to recycling and he could not understand why a Vaughan town engineer Dick Kraft says the evidence from previous hearings is that sanitary landfill sites will continue to be needed. Engineering committee chairman Ron Moran warned that the first thing Metro would want was to open up a sanitary landfill site in York, but the chairman said he was thinking more of Watts for Waste, the project to burn garbage and use the energy created to heat downtown buildings. A hearing before the Environmental Appeal Board on a decision not to make the Maple pits the main repository for Metro garbage over the next 20 years, will resume next month. It has run into funding problems but regional representatives find the idea preferable to Metro garbage being hauled to the Maple pits. Regional chairman Bob Forhan last week called for co-operation with Metropolitan Toronto and other regional municipalities in disposing of the area’s garbage. get a taste of our newest .

Mayor Garnet Williams and Councillor Dario DiGiannantonio comp- lained about the condition at regional council last week. The region included a condition for each sub- division in the Thornhill- Vaughan plan that Vaughan come up with a plan for the disposal of garbage. Vaughan has opposed this because of the Maple site, but if it is inevitable, the council has suggested legislation similar to Ottawa-Carleton’s where the area and regional councils share respon- sibility. - At the same time, the region is trying to get control of garbage disposal from area municipalities with new legislation.
