and the schools have already been built.
Housing priees are already sliding, and
Hydro recently agreed to purchase the
homes of about 25 former employees when
they couldn't find buyers at appraised
market values.
The effect on businesses will be
dramatic: Hydro estimates its annual
payroll in Bruce County will drop from $215
million in 1983 to $118" million (in 1983
dollars) in 1988.
The Ontario government hopes to
counter the decline by trying to stimulate
jobs in such sectors as agriculture and
tourism, "where there would be a better
future," says David Grant, executive
assistant to' energy minister Phil Andrew -
es.
For several years there have been hopes
an industrial park drawing surplus, low
cost steam from the nuclear plants would
be in operation to, help employment. Hydro
has started construction of a steam line on
the promise of $3.5 million in- provincial
funds.
