the equivalent .resources that
were brought to ' bear on
developing nuclear energy had
been applied. • '
"Through the discussions of
these alternatives I would' like
to point to the fact that other
forms of • energy rather'' than
nuclear fusion are within the
limits of-, man's present
technical knowledge. However,
both federal and provincial
governments in -Canada curren-
tly appear tci be particularly
unresponsive -to .corrsderation
of unconventional energy sour-
ces, All•that is required is the
decisirsn of government agen-
cies 'to provide the much-
needed funds.".,he said.
The farmer politician then
'pointed out that while"Ontario
Hydtb: forges ahead with its
plan for nuclear generators the
Huron County ::farmers are
losing their land in mangy cases
against their wishes.
"I am also greatly concerned
with the use of prime
agricultural lands for the
establishment of' Hydro 'slants,
power corridors and pipelines.
When one considers the rate at
which Ontario's limited. far-
ming land is disappearing from
agricultural use, the risk of any
further losses brought about by
Hydro lines being routed
through areas specifically
designated for future farming is
a serious one. The province is
losing '26 acres of prime
agricultural land' per hour to
development," he said.
"Since there is a limited sup=
ply of class 1 and • class, 2
agricultural land, in this
province, and with demands
being placed on these areas for
non-agricultural uses such as.
residential 'and industrial
development, recreational
areas, etc. any intrusions
these lands ,for Hydro power
lines and corridors, should be
minimal. Rather they should be
located through low grade
agricultural productive lands.
Ontario Hydro, however, does
not 'seem to take these ideas

The -MPP, then referred' the

He then turned on Ontario,
Hydro, tearing their land ap-
propriation scheme apart. "In
methods of negotiation, Hydro
merely offers the farmer a sum
of money. 'If this is turned
down, they are threatened with.
expropriation. --Moreover if a

onus is on him"for initiation of
the defence action, he ac-
cused.
"Often a farmer's land is dd-
versely divided by sorne Hydro
project, This division in torn
has very serious effects on his
operation. Hydro says there is
no problem; since it will license
the land hack to the farmer for
a nominal fee so that he can

However, ..this is not the case
since work will be greatly ham-

. t.ained,' Moreover, :with 'such. -a

responsible for any damage

result of his routine work with

problems which
the farmer
must face point to the fact that
Ontario Hydro lacks sufficient

on dere the government 'of their

He went on to say, "The

however, is questionable, since

- Most are now self-sufficient
