By JACK RIDDELL
MPP Huron-Middlesex
No doubt you will all have
heard of the mysterious “M.
Shultz” who wrote to Liberal
MPP Eddie Sargent com
paring failures at Ontario
Hydro’s Bruce Generating
Station to those that led to
the recent nuclear accident
at the Three Mile Island
power plant near
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
He said that “the
possibility of all these events
happening simultaneously in
a Candu reactor are remote,
but no more remote than the
sequence of events at TMI”.
The letter in question and
seven accompanying
Significant Event Reports
were released by Liberal
Leader Stuart Smith. Tur
ning the documents over to
the Legislature’s select
committee on Hydro affairs,
Stuart Smith said "These
documents must speak for
themselves ... I think
members of the committee
will see that Mr. Shultz is a
responsible person and the
concern he expresses in his
letter is a legitimate one.”
Subsequently, a man
identifying himself as Mr.
Shultz telephoned a Toronto
radio station with deails of
an incident over the weekend
of 28,29 April in which two

received radiation doses far
.in excess of the permissible
level while working to free a
trapped fuel bundle in a
reactor at Bruce.
One worker received a
dose of 5.5 rems, the other
received an eight-rem dose,
according to Hydro officials.
(Five rems is the per
missible level of exposure
for an entire year).
Ontario Hydro shut down
its 10-day-old operation to
retrieve the trapped fuel
bundle and has launched an
investigation into the over
exposure incident. Officials
of Hydro, nuclear plant
operators and health
specialists will participate in
the inquiry, the results of
which will be made public as
soon as possible,
Hydro will be given an
opportunity to rebut
allegations that failures at
Bruce seriously jeopardized
safety. Representatives of
all parties have agreed to
meet with officials to give an
opportunity for Hydro to
respond to the letter from
"Mr. Shultz” and the ac
companying reports.
In the latest in a series of
relevations by New York
State health officials, it has
been announced that the
world’s deadliest man-made
poison, dioxin, has been
found in Lake Ontario fish.
People, especially pregnant
women and children, have
been warned not to eat fish
from the lake, although
officials maintained the
discovery poses no threat to
Metro’s water.
An environment ministry
official has stated that the
poison could not be in the
lake water because it gets
into the fish through the food
chain. “It’s not in the
water”, he said. “It’s in
something the fish eats."
Answering a question from
Liberal Leader Stuart Smith
about the seriousness of the
problem, the Minister Harry
Parrott, compared the
concentrations of dioxin to
"one shot of vermouth in a 28
million ton of martini”.
Dr. Smith was not
reassured by the Minister’s
response, and angrily
commented “he is saying
everything is fine and they
don’t even test for dioxin. He
shouldn’t say everything is
fine until the water and fish
have been tested.”
The Liberal Leader also
questioned the Minister in
the House about delays in
carrying out tests for dioxin.
Almost two-and-a-half years
ago the Ministry of the
Environment announced it
was preparing to test for this
poison in its own
laboratories.
However, officials have
recently admitted that
ministry laboratories are at
least three to six months
away from setting up a
program to test for dioxin in
water and fish.
Drums of caustic chemical
have been discovered in a
Fort Erie dump which was
described as hazardous in a
five year old report which
only came to light this past
week, when Liberal MPP
Ray Haggerty brought it to
the attention of the govern
ment. Following receipt of
the report by the Ministry
this week samples were
taken at the site to ascertain
if toxic chemicals from the
site were leaking into a
drainage ditch.
The dump in question is
about 4.5 miles from the
Niagara River. It is about
three miles from the nearest
large residential area,
although some scattered
houses are a few hundred
yards away. The dump is
surrounded on all sides by
open fields and bush. Mr Mr.
Haggerty pointed out that
the Fort Erie site is the only
dump marked as hazardous
out of 25 listed in the report.
He expressed the belief that
the town should tighten its
control of the dump.
However, town
management has no idea
what kind of chemicals
might have been deposited
there in the past since
waybills have been kept for
only a few years. The type of
industry located in Fort Erie
does not generate the type of
waste normally associated
with a hazardous label.
Both Opposition Parties
have expressed concern
about the Minister of
Health’s flip-flop on the
question of allowing Ontario
doctors to accept payment
by credit card for their
services.
The fear is that allowing
the use of credit cards would
remove what the Minister
has himself described as one
of the main incentives to
doctors to remain within the
Ontario Health Insurance
Plan — guaranteed payment
and almost no bad debts.
Possibly if doctors are
sure they will be paid, as
they now are under OHIP,
they may see little incentive
to stay in the plan, charging
lower fees than they could
command if they opted out.
