foot wide swath north south hydro lines is a cruel blow to the new town of Hills The high towers five abreast will likely be towering over some of the most picturesque and best farm land in Ontario when they march up the Fifth Concession middle and further into Erin township However few people who have read the full text of Doctor Solandt s report can dis agree with his decisions based on the evidence presented at various hearings across the length and breadth of the study area Those in this area especially men such as Lee Symmes and John Schneider and Goi don Kidd took the commission at its word that it wanted public They spent considerable time and effort in assisting it at arriving at a decision although some of it has been a dis appointment Hydro originally called for locating the corridor through a middle belt which ran through Terra Cotta crossing the south end of Erin and Eramosa townships before going diagonally across the northern half of Nassa All that has changed since the com mission took over its study and Ontario Hydro s methods of bulldozing lines through challenged Now the east west line will likely follow the proposed Parkway Belt which Queen Park had suggested should take all communications and utilities anyway It makes one wonder course if the Government did not have this in mind from the start and used oblique methods to deal Bill SMILEY Canadians weary of winter arc taking advantage the school wmlcr break in everincreasing numbers Id get away from the true north strong and fretting Colleagues mention that they re oft to the Caribbean or Mexico or Canary Islands or some such exotica Its considered passe these days to merely to Florida with Ontario Hydro except for the fact the north south line marches right through Halton Hills infant son of Queens Park hardly baptized and called Illegitimate by some The frustrating fact about all this power is that it will flow into Toronto to attract more industry and business to a city which planners say is already too large for its own good Some of that power should be going to parts of On where Queens Park has insisted should be developed One only has to go back 100 years when the pioneers settled Upper Canada They built mills and homes where power existed Power was the magnet which attracted them albeit water rather than electrical current It is easy to draw a modern analogy If Hydro planned their system to spread power out instead of filtering it into the already crowded parts of Ontario in the socalled Golden Horseshoe then industry and business would follow In that way perhaps some of the objectives of the Torontocentred region plan would be much simpler to implement Why aren the enormous amounts of power being used to decentralize and spread of that Toronto based wealth across the province Is Hydro not working hand in hand with Queen s Park Since we in Halton Hills will likely have to suffer the visual impact of the corridor now it would be interesting to know Is Hydro planning to put all its electrical might into growth for Toronto and Hamilton while the province tries to slow it down Chief reason Is that air ravel is no longer for the rich only Package deals and charier flights put a midwinter break within reach of us Joes Islands those tiny bits between England and France Air fare is only each return And do you know what they re paying for a hotel
