Alberta opposition leaders criticized the 1980-81 Heritage Savings Trust Fund report as a mismanaged pool with weak returns. Grant Notley said Canada Savings Bonds yield 19 percent while the fund nears 23 percent prime rate, calling 11.6 percent unacceptable. He urged better Albertan investment and greater use of Alberta Opportunity Company and ADC funding.

A national marketing board to fix prices and quotas could mirror the wheat board while other ideas include income stabilization with market sharing, import quotas, and a producer run supply management plan. Projections show many cattlemen earn little, prompting renewed calls for reform despite resistance from producers.
