This week saw the Hydro
hearings get into full swing with
the first witness called being
George Gathercole, Ontario
Hydro Chairman,
• Mr. Gathercole put his job
on the line demanding complete
exoneration of Hydro in its deal-
ings with a private develoner for
construction of a$45 million head
office building.
Mr. Gathercole's statement
and later questioning included a
number of disclosures.
Hydro architect Ken Candy
attended a meeting with Gerhard
Moog, President of Canada
Square Corporation
'
on the 10th
June, 1971, more than a year
before Hydro approved entering
into a contract with the firm.
During the meeting a leaseback
proposition was discussed.
Mr. Candy sent Mr. Moog
copies of architectural, elec-
trical, mechanicall, structural
and plumbing drawings of an
earlier design for a head office
building two months after another
developer's request for the
drawings was refused.
Henry Sissons, Hydro's
assistant general manager for
services and, as such, the of-
ficial in charge of the head
office project, had warned in a'
memorandum dated the 15th
•August, 1969, that a leaseback
arrangement of the sort even-
tually entered into would involve
a "much higher cost" to Hydro.
Later on in the hearings, a
Confidential memo from Mr. Sis-
sons to Mr. Gathercole urged
the job be steered to the Moog
firm.
The memorandum dated
November 1971 recommended
that the job of building a new
Hydro head officke go to "the
developer in whom we have com-
plete confidence."
. Mr. Gathercole finally agreed
that anyone who read the memo
would have to conclude that the
reference was to Canada Square
Corporation, the eventual
builder.
The note was written three
months after Canada Square was
supplied with drawings of a
shelved design for the project
and well before an invitation went
out to four other developers to
submit competing proposals.
0 n other matters, the use
of Government planes raised
its head again.
Premier William Davis de-
fended his winter vacation flights
to Florida in a Government leased
executive jet..
Mr. Davis said because of '4'
security reasons he had been
advised not 'to use commercial
airlines.
The Premier said he had de-
cided two years ago to use
Government aircraft for other
than Government business, and
added that he made no apologies
for it. Government business,
however, remains tye criteria
for use of Government aircraft
by other Cabinet Ministers.
Mr. Davis said he is 'setting
aside for the Ontario Treasury
the equivalent of first class
fares for himself and his wife
and economy fares for his child-
ren and guests.
The Estimates of the various
Ministries are receiving atten-
tion and scrutiny by the Members.
At the moment, the spending pro-
grammes for the Solicitor
General and the Ministry of the
Environment are receiving con-
sideration.

way or Mrs. H. Thomas.

club was "Brussels Senior
Friendship Club".
