On dloser ently. scrutinv. dîscovered that tbis pes on plant had already received the settle- -go ahead" as early as 1971 )veral (and perhaps before) at wbicb time a hearing was considered unnecessary. It seems strange to me, and makes me rather suspicious, tbat the public in this area have not been better informed and that little dis- cussion bas taken place. Building another nuclear power plant, in this area, and right ln our own back yard -without considering al l the implications for our commun- ity seems irresponsible. By allowing the building of this plant we are making a decision about the size and composition of our commun- ity. I have found that the more I learn about nuclear power the more it scares me. The major problem is the radioactive waste material produced by nuclear fission. The by-product, plutonium is extremely barmful genetic- ally. Even tiny, unmeasurable amounts can cause cancer. Plutonium is an entirely man-made substance, tbe ef- fects of which last for thous- ands of years. How will it be stored? What are the possibil- ities for extremist groups misusing it? Do we want to leave such dangerous, radio- active material to our children and countless future genera N11EW at Exclusive hand made I: A beautiful assortmer Christmas gift ideas.

Haven't we learned from the Port Hope disaster? (What about Port Granby?) I believe that the residents of this area should kniow the answers to some of these basic questions. I suggest that indeed THERE BE A PUBLIC HEARING before the final go- ahead is given. (We have until the middle of December). The information that Ontario Hy- dro used to decide to build the plant does flot come from independent researchers. An the past 5-10 years much new information about nuclear reactorsbas come to, light. Let us examine the facts before we allow this potentially dangerous project to be built in our community. Concerned and frightened, Henry Lise Newcastle, Ontario November 26, 1976 Animal Control Officer, Town of Newcastle,,, Bowmanville, Ontario Dear Editor: I wish to make a formai complaint against Councillor Ken Lyall regarding his dogs running loose in both the Newcastle -Public School grounds, and the park on King Street East. Almost every day this man brings his two dogs to these grounds and permits them to run freely defecating on the grounds. A large number of children play in both these parks, and I feel this is a definite health hazard which should not be permitted to continue.' For myself, and aIl the other parents who have ,had the unfortunate experience of their children stepping in these droppings, it would be appreciated if you did some- thing about this situation.
