2-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, August 23rd, 1978 Orono Weekly Times SAME GAME BUT DIFFERENT ARENA Prime Minister Trudeau's constitutional proposais~ for change to the constitution is running into opposition from many quarters and especially from a recent meeting of the Provincial Premiers ini Regina. The Premiers want to be sure they have a def inite say in the preparation of any change * and want no part of the federal governinent 'proceeding on * the matter unilaterally. Its the same game that was played in the area of the present Region of Durham some years ago. Local politicians met for a number of years to come forth with a form of regional government for the area but nothing really happened until the provincial government assembled the municipal- representatives in an Oshawa Collegiate and outlined the plan and brought about Regional government passed t hrough the legisiature of the Province. It was the same game in Northumberland County when the province recommended a form of government similar to the regional system. Some four years was spent in studies being prepared, reports filed and a multitude of meetings held wth municipal leaders. Agreement was neyer reached between the municipal representatives and in a vote restructuring was turned down. Constitutional change at the federal level is the same, game but in a different arena. Ail the aspects are somewhat similar and it could well be pointedout that the provinces have been given the opportunity to agree upon constitutional * change but neyer have they been able to corne forth with a formula of change from ail parties involved. As in Ontario and the regional systems nothing wil * ever be accomplished in constitutional change until the federal government takes action on its own to bring it about. As the senior level of government having representation across the country it is only logical that they should have the right to make change within the present limitations of the present constitution. *THEYRE ON THEIR WAY Just before going to press Tuesday evening two young men were asking the direction to Mosport. No doubt they will be one of the first arrivais for the Saturday Canada Jam festival being held north of this Village. Although ther~e is some apprehension being expressed by some over the festival it does appear that organization bas been quite extensive. There is also littie doubt that there wil be some fine music at the festival which even this.writer could take. The outcome, of this festival could well determine others for the future. ISAM AT QUEEN'S PARK Report from Queen's Park Sam Cureatz, M.P.P., Durham East The Ontario Ministry of Energy, in co-operation with the Ministries of Agriculture and Food, Natural Resources, Industry and Tourism and Ontario Hydro, has been evaluating the feasibility of using warm (4o degrees Ceius) water for agricul- tarai and agricultural pur- poses. The water, would be made available from Ontario Hydro nuclear powër sta- tions. , Although the Darllngton nuclear generating station is not yet completed, I arn confident that it wiil provide additional energy at a rela- tively low cost. Based on the positive fincl- ings of an engineering study, I was pleased to see that a public cail bas been made to potential users and, investors to submit plans for the development of greenhouses and f ish farm fadilities. Future investors wiil be utilizing the warm water which is part of the moderat- ion cooling system in Ontario Hydro's Nulear Power Dev- elopments. Along s imilar lines of conserving energy Ontario Hydro has emb arked on a $2.5 million project, that may eventuaily see load manage- ment put into effect in Ontario. Sanctioned by the Association of Municipal Ele- ctric Association, I believe that tis project could reduce the long term cost of electri- City to consumers. The pro- jeact wiil involve about 150 Scarborough homes, apart- Sthg ahrpeast most pancake breaktasts.

Volunteer customers will have a two- way communication system installed to allow the utility to cut off power to selected appliances during peak hours. Three new experimen- tal furnaces, with built-in heat storage capacity, and which will only draw power in off-peak hours, will also be installed in three ail-electric homes. In Oshawa, parallel tests on the experimental furnaces and the special large capacity water heaters will be conduc- ted. These field trial wiil find out the customer's reaction to load management. Hopefuily the reaction will be positive. However, if' it isn't it is important that we know why s0 that changes can be made which are more acceptable to the customer. The project wil take about 2 years. We are ail too aware of the many roles which our police are taxed with while' on patrol. As a result a "Law Enforcement Driver Train- ing" programn bas been insti- tuted by the Durham Region- ai Police Force and the Durham College of Applied Arts and Technology. The programn will stress defensive driving in hope to aid the officers in their approach to these roles. The course now in progress will continue until the end of October, and may lead to an ongoing program. Mîght I also say congratul- ations to President Jim Ric- kard and other members of the Bowmanville Lions Club for again putting on a woniderful carnival at Bow- manville Memorial Park. In conjuncton with these activities, I would like at this time to congratulate His Honour Richard Donald, Q.C., for being appointed Family Court Judge in the City of Oshawa. At the swearing-in ceremony, the President of the Durham Law Association, Bob Alexander, very eloquently reflected the feelings of ail Durham law- yers on His Honour's appoint- ment.
