Before we look at this challenge
more specifically, we must
assess our present situation in
or.tario. The major problem in
• Ontario today is related to Urban
growth in prime agricultural
areas.
The most important industrial
and urban area in Canada
parallels the lower Gr sat Lake
(Erie and On'ario and the St.
Lawrence River. A map shows
that a relatively straight line. may -
be drawn from .Quebec city
through Moutreal, Kingston, Tor-
onto, London, to Windsor,
approximately 700 miles long, If
one visualizes a belt 50 miles
wide running Its entire length, the
corridor would be 35,001/' square'
miles in area. Although this com-
prises less than 1 percent of the
total area of Canada, this belt is
an extrem'ely important part of
the country, representing one-
third of Canada's prime
agricultural land. The cdrridor
of Canada's population, four fifths
of her industrial- activity as
measured by the value of
manufatitured goods, and one-
third of the commercial
agriculture as 'measured by the
value of products sold off
the farm.
Since 1945 most of the
' has been concentrated 4 -) the
metropolitan areas of Trzonto;
and Montreal. However, in the
last decade Hamilton, Windsor,
Quebec City, and London have
showed signs of expansion. The
Macdonald-Cartier Freeway
(401) serves as the main street
of the Grand Trunk Corridor.
Industrial location is based on
the geography of costs in which
accessibility to both sources of
materiels and the marketplace Is
important, The Grand Trunk
Corridor "is a bundle of acces-
sibility with railways, telecom-
munications, oil and as pipe-
lines, electrical trahsmission,
and water supply systems: In-
dustrial activity can be t,ixpected
to spread from established
centres along the bundles of ac-
cessibility eventually forming

Man's needs from his environ-
ment include many legitimate
land uses: space for houses, in-
dustries, water supply, roads,
hospitals,' shopping centres,
cemeteries, parks, schools,
farms, mines, grazing land,
'clocks, television towers, canals,
airports, forests, electrical
energy installations, hotels,
libraries, theatres, recreational
areas, wilderness, scenic vistas,
sewers, and at least a score of
other major land uses.•All these
are legitimate; all are needed.

Legends Honor
St. Nicholas
He's the Otron saint of
pawnbrokers. He watches
over mariners. Since the
fourth ,century, he has
been remembered for his•
generosity.
'Many of the legends
linked with' St. Nicholas,
real-life ancestor of to-
day's Santa Claus.
But his most enduring
connection is with youth
and gifts. In Europe, his
feast day, December 6th,
has traditionally been an
nreasinn fnr merriment
and gifting.
'Hanging Stockings
St. Nicholas, so legend says,
secretly gave Kilts of gold for
the dowries of poor spinsters.
He tossed the gold down a
chimney on Christmas Eve,
and on one occasion the gift
landeb in a stocking hung by
the fireplace to dry.
A tangerine or an orange
in the toe of a stocking has
come to be symbolic of the
gifts of gold.

a solid strip 'of industrial
dernination.
Ontario must begin to think
regionally and to planregionally.
Dramatic development that is
regional in its impact cannot be
handled by individual tiny units
of local government. It is es-
sential that a regional plan re-
cogni,e6 the actual and potential
values of good agricultural land
Ontario is already a fold deficient
area and has been so for many
years. We must reeegniee eerie,
culture as a major industry. For
example the value of agriculture
in the counties of Middlesex and
Elgin is greater than that for
the four Atlantic pro4inces corn-
Weed. Surely this is an irifistry
that deserves careful planning for
its continued suc,:ess.
More regulation of develop-
ment is necessary There are

that °major highways such as
401, 402 or 403 must cross good
agricultural land but' the amount
should be kept a minimum. Cities '

ning, and development • ol there
towns would be a great but ex-
citing regional responsibility.
These towns would supplement,
and augment the established
urban centres and therefore it
would be essential that' they be
part of the total regional plan.
Obviously regional government
would oe necessary to handle
regional assessment and tax-
ation. It is possible that regional
government in time may require
.larger operative areas than I
have suggested. Careful study
must be given to the possibility
of Regional Development groups
such as Norfolk, Oxford,
,Elgin and Middlesex forming a..
basic unit. The tread, 'in line
with the pressures of the time,
efs toward larger units, Regional
governments can be made more
inclusive as cOnchtions demand.
To conclude:
Excessive urban sprawl can
destroy' this region in the long
run. On the other hand we, if
we are truly civilized, can use
these great forces to develops a
pattern of land 'use of meaningful
purpose.
We can have industrial de-
ve lop na ent and its urban
expansion at the same time that
a prosperous agriculture is
encpuraged to grow.
The fact that many European
and American cities have failed
to meet the challenge of urban
expansion does not give us a
readymade excuse here in
Ontario.
Everyone in this region must
become aware of these problems
so that he may take a sigui'l.;ant
part in working out the solutions
that are necessary.
