Council, pawns in Hydro's program
Dear Editor,
I was appalled and deeply
concerned when I read the
headlines in the Goderich
Signal -Star last week:
"Council supports Hydro
transmission line." For
Huron Council to take a posi-
tion on the controversial and
still highly disputed proposal
of Ontario Hydro at this
pointFlin time leads a person
to think there must have
been some pressure ' put
somewhere'
The county has been
represented by Reeve Tom
Cunningham (Hullett
Township) at the Listowel
Working Group meetings
thus far. The meetings are
far from complete and
LETTERS
many questions as to the real
need, and methodology used
in determining their propos-
ed plan (MI) still need to be
answered. (They were on the
agenda for upcoming
meetings).
The proposed plan is under
review by the Ministry of
Environment. Do we care
what they have to say?
The review is 'then
presented to hearings in
front of the Consolidated
Hearings Board to allow for
public participation in the
procedures. The hearings
are not scheduled to begin
until January 26, 1982 in
Stratford. Again, what is
council's rush to take a posi-
tion?
What could it benefit
Huron County to be dissected
by a 500 KW. transmission
line from Bruce to London?
Do we expect a great boost in
industrial expansion as a.
result?

Clip nuclear news reports
To the Editor
'there are many Cana-
dians who are very concern-
ed about our nuclear in-
dustry and its failure to find
a solution to many of its pro-
blems.
Searching, but failing to
find a safe method of nuclear
waste disposal, our govern-
ment continues to pile up
more and more millions of
tons of this almost - forever
poison.
What are they doing'
Or do they know what
they're doing? Serious ac-
cidents are blamed on "the
hu=man factor". Radio -active
waste is spilled into our
.drinking water. Old Mother
Earth breathes nuclear dust
There are many who want
to have a conscience -clear
answer when the next
generation asks '"Did you try
to stop the nuclear mess that
we have inherited?"
An inexpensive way to
show vour concern is to
make a habit of clipping
from newspapers or
magazines each news report
dealing with the nuclear in-
dustry, then sending each.
clipping (no postage stamp
required) to either: Marc
Lalonde, Minister of
Energy, House of Commons
Ottawa; Pierre Trudeau,
Prime Minister, House of
Commons. Ottawa; or Moni-
que Begin, ' Minister of
Health, House of Commons
Ottawa.
We know that nuclear
spells disaster, but does the
government KNOW we
know?
They will if you and I
"'Keep on clipping".

Lake Huron is becoming

should have suggested an
alternative route.
The agricultural com-
munity, farm organizations,
etc., will take a dim view on
county council's action. We
are busy taking part in the
discussions, as yet, in the
working groups, and in the
hearings to come.
And Huron County Coun-
