Cousins, Manager Listowel, Ontario VICTORIA and GREY TRUST COMPANY SINCE 1889 Special commission will examine Ontario's long-term power needs Allan Grossman, provincial secretary for Resources Development announced the creation of an independent com- mission of inquiry into the long range planning of Ontario's power needs. The Commissi ' n will be chaired by Dr. Arthur Porter, a University of Toronto professor of industrial engineering and chairman of the Canadian En- vironmental Advisory Council. Mr. Grossman told the Legis- lature that the Commission will hold public hearings throughout Ontario. "It is possible these open discussions could take as long as two years to complete," he noted. The Minister also announced that, for the first time, Ontario will provide funding for potential participants at the hearings. Mr. Grossman described this funding as purely experimental. "Quite frankly, We do not know at this time how the Commission will handle the delicate judge- ments as to which groups should receive financial assistance in preparing and making their presentations. This will be dis- cussed in greater detail with the Commission chairman." Mr. Grossman said the public hearings "may well be the most important in ' this decade. The sheer scope of factors and values embraced in a public debate on long-term planning should in- volve all aspects of Ontario's future—economic, sociaR ah* vironmental, agricultural, orhaln planning, industrial growtlyilld se forth." "The hearings should also bring into public focus bhp philosophies about much Of the kind of life we want for thenekt century and what price we ere prepared to pay for its achieve, ment," he said. The Commission will foe=s on the broad conceptual conse- quences of alternative ways of supplying sufficient electrical power during the period 1885* 1993. (Much of Qp trio Hydro's planning until 19sr has already been approved.) The Commission, will consider a wide range of social and econ- omic factors such as provincial planning policies, the impact of possible new generating stations and transmission corridors on the environment and farm lands, the economic base of, and social effects on, adjacent communi- ties, commercial and residential energy requirements, industrial development, energy conserva- tion. The Commission will also examine more technical matters, including electrical load growth, system reliability, power pooling and linkages with neighboring utilities, the management of heat discharge from generating sta- tions, technology and the security of fuel supplies. Mr. Grossman stressed that the Coming Events ESCORTED TOURS Fettes Tours, 184 Main St., Mount Forest, phone 519-323-1545 have space available on the fol- lowing , tours.

Commission will be vied more with broad plural! ciples and concepts than with narrow technical details. "The public needs to knew what demands for electricty will be placed upon 0041 19 Hydro 'Q in the long-term, hew the,, needs should be set, and what irn.r..ct a� ca+,.�y.vr this would have on Ontario's way of life and its physical environ- ment," he said, The Commission will hold, pre- liminary public hearings to define the issues that will sub- sequently be discussed in greater depth at the main hearings. The preliminary hearings will also establish procedures to be fol- lowed during the main hearings. Mr. Grossman pointed out that Ontario Hydro is one of the world's largest electrical power utilities. Its current assets of about $5.5 billion would exceed $30 billion by 1983. if Ontario Hydro's present plans are ap- proved. "A potential public investment of this magnitude and im- portance alone warrants wide- spread public involvement in directing its future growth," he said. The Commission's chairman, Dr. Arthur Porter, is an eminent international engineer and scien- tific scholar. Educated at the University of Manchester, he completed his post -doctorate work at the Massachusetts Insti- tute of Technology. He has time included.

Your federal income Tax Guide explains therm thoroughly. Let's take the Interest Income Deduction as an example. This year for the first time, if you received and reported on your income tax form interest income from many legitimate Canadian sources, including bank deposits, bonds, mortgages and notes, you are allowed to claim as a deduction the total of the amounts up to. $1,000. Your Tax Guide explains it in detail. Check Item 35. Increased Personal Exemptions is another item that has changed from last year. All it means is that the Federal Government has increased your. personal exemptions to coincide with the rise in the • . Consumer Price Index. The new personal .exemptions are printed on your income tax form. Guide Item 41 tells you more about it. Well, those are just some of the areas where it pays to follow your Tax Guide and, of course, there are others. The Federal Political Contribution Tax Credit is new as well.

Sob • Today higher education is more important than ever before this is What Ontario is doing to help- mike it available to everyone. Ontario is the best place in Canada to get a higher education. Why? First, the range and diversity of programs our institutions offer. Second, the Ontario Government programs that help students finance their education. Already, 2 out of 5 students at Ontario colleges and universities are receiving financial aid through the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP). OSAP assists full-time post -secondary students with govemment-financed loans and -grants based- on need, not on academic achieve- ment. h Now, starting with the 1675-76 academic year, there will be two new programs. The Ontario Student Loans Plan is de- signed to help students who are ineligible for aid from OSAP. It will benefit part-time students, some students enrolled in up- grading programs and those taking pro- grams which are shorter, or have different Kitty Standards than required by OSAP reigulations. The Ontario Special Bursary Program gives non -repayable grants to people in serious financial need, particularly those who can improve their financial situation by taking one or more courses. It's designed for part-time students who receive social assistance, are unemployed, or who have a low family income. If you would like to know what financial assistance is available to you, and how to apply for it, contact the Student Awards Officer at the institution of your choice.
