Ryan encourages delay for PC election promisesGerry Ryan, co-founder of HuronEast Against Turbines (HEAT), is
encouraging Huron East Council to
stall the St. Columban wind project
for as long as possible, at least until
after the October 6 election.
At the July 19 meeting of Huron
East Council Ryan cited a recent
meeting where a member of the
Conservative Party said should they
get elected, they would attempt to
halt all wind turbine projects that
don’t have a notice to proceed,which is an essential step in theapproval process.Ryan stated that if Huron EastCouncil could delay the approval of
the St. Columban wind project until
after the election, and the
Conservatives were to gain power in
Ontario, there would be a possibility
the project could be stopped before it
begins.
While the project has a contract
with Ontario Hydro to produce
power, Ryan said, a notice to
proceed has yet to procured, which,
could prove to be a determiningfactor should the Conservative Partywith the October election.Ryan also cited the recent IanHanna decision where the court
sided with the wind turbine
developers. The judge in the case did
state that there was the potential for
problems with wind turbines, Ryan
said.
He considered this a minor victory
for opponents of wind turbines and
said this was a foundation on which
HEAT and other groups could build
their case.
Ryan also claimed Huron East’sscheduled meeting with the PristinePower Corporation about potentialfuture development on August 5 wasinappropriate. Council had no
grounds to meet with the company,
he said.
“What you’re negotiating, you
have no grounds to negotiate,” Ryan
said. “You’re negotiating our health.
You have no more grounds to
negotiate these finances than you do
to negotiate with our health.”
Ryan said that despite the alleged
population decline in Huron County,
St. Columban is growing and youngfamilies are moving into thecommunity, but they’re being put inharm’s way due to wind turbines.“You’re negotiating with our
lives,” he said. “Put yourselves
in our shoes. Slow this process
down.”
After Ryan’s presentation, council
decided it would proceed with its
meeting as scheduled.
Several councillors stated it was
essential to hear both sides and keep
their options open in regards to wind
turbines.

Central Huron receives first quarter OLG revenue
The Municipality of Central
Huron received $162,884 for hosting
OLG Slots at Clinton Raceway.
The payment was for the host
municipality’s first-quarter share of
slots revenue (April to June 2011).
To date, Central Huron has received
more than $6.3 million in non-tax
gaming revenue. Payments are made
on a quarterly basis according to the
government fiscal year, which runs
April to March. OLG Slots at
Clinton Raceway opened on August
24, 2000. Since opening, the facility
has attracted more than 2 million
visitors.
“OLG Slots at Clinton Raceway
has been a strong community partner
and economic force in the
Municipality of Central Huron since
2000,” says Huron-Bruce MPP
Carol Mitchell. “Through this
partnership with OLG, the
Municipality of Central Huron has
received more than $6.3 million
in gaming revenue, which allows
us to continually invest in this
community and support important
local programs and initiatives.”
In total, OLG issued more than
$18.4 million in first quarter non-tax
gaming revenue payments to 23
municipalities that host OLG
Casinos and OLG Slots-at-racetrack
facilities. To date, OLG has
distributed $778.1 million to these
host municipalities.
Each municipality hosting an
OLG Slots-at-racetrack facility
receives five per cent of the gaming
facility’s gross slot machine revenue
from the first 450 slot machines and
two per cent from any additional
machines over that number. Funds
are used at the discretion of the
municipality.
Tracks and their horse people also
share the revenue generated by the
slots program, with 20 per cent of
gross slot machine revenue split
evenly between the two groups.
Since the launch of the program in
1998, more than $3.50 billion has
been shared between racetrack
owners and their horse people.
In 2011/2012, the province will
allocate $120 million in gaming
revenue to support charities through
the Ontario Trillium Foundation
(OTF).
Every year, the Government of
Ontario allocates two per cent of
gross revenue from slot machines at
OLG Casinos and OLG Slots-at-
racetrack facilities to the province’s
problem gambling program for
research, treatment and prevention
programs. The amount for fiscal
2011/2012 is estimated at $41
million.
Just over 50 years ago, on August
5, Margaret Anne Jamieson and
John Keith Moffatt were wed in
Port Elgin.
Margaret, daughter of Moffatt and
Ruth Jamieson of Port Elgin, and
Keith, son of Burns and Ethel
Moffatt of Bluevale, were wed by
Rev. J.H. Slade and then
honeymooned in Nashville,
Tennessee.
After their marriage they lived in
Wingham where Keith worked at the
Dairy and Poultry Co-op in
Wingham as an engineer before
becoming a plumber. Keith retired
from his position as the Huron
County Plumbing Inspector in 2005.
Margaret was a teacher at
Wingham Public School.
The couple has two children;
Sandra Schmidt and Greg Moffatt,
and seven grandchildren.
They celebrated their anniversary
at the Bluevale Community Hall on
August 3.
To keep busy the couple are
members of the Huron Pioneer
Thresher and Hobby Association,
the Wingham Sportsmen Club as
well as the Bluevale Presbyterian
Church.
