Nuclear's contribution rose to 32.3 billion kilowatt hours, up 11.6 percent over 1978, moving it well ahead of coal, which produced 28.5 billion kilowatt hours; up only 5.4 percent.

The report r DOW that Hydro continued during 1979. to operate with no occupational or public fatalities or. injuries occurring due to ex- posure to radiation in the nuclear power program. Such emissions were generally within the target of one percent of the federal Atomic Energy Control Board's° limits. Ontario is increasing its dependence°op nuclear power because "we really don't have, at this time, any alternative," Mr. Macaulaysai.d. Only small scale hydraulic sites are left, fossil fuels are in- creas ingly uneconomical, and alternate energy sources such as -solar and wind "seem a long, long way from practical ap- plication en a major scale." Hence, nuclear power, "until something better comes along, is where the° emphasis is going to be." Among the report's other. highlights was an increase in the sale of electrical energy to the United States, to a record 11.7 billion kilowatt hours compared to 10.4 billion in 1978, a growth of 12.4 percent and yielding a net benefit to Hydro's• customers of $154 million. Mr. Macaulay said Hydro is eekingkfurther sales to the United States to offset the roughly 20 percent surplusin generating capacity after reserves. The year's financial results showed an overall improvement, and, for the first time since 1966, Hydro's debt -equity ratio improved in comparison with the previous year, to .848 from .853.

Previously meetings, have been held in London, Kitchener, Hamilton and Windsor. The Task Force, which has been formed to obtain grassroots' participation in the preparation of a Liberal labour policy ' paper, received briefs from a wide range of organizations including the Ontario Federation of Labour, the Canadian Manufacturers Associatign, the Ontarlb Public Service Employees Union, the Ontario Mining Association, Professor Harry Waisglass, the Diredtor of the Labour Studies Program at McMaster University. While there was a considerable variation in the opinions expressed by the different groups, the major areas discussed were necessary amen- dments to the 'Labour Relations Act, the question of union security and union responsibility, management, rights and responsibilities and concerns about good faith bargaining. Task Force hearings are scheduled for mid- May in Thunder Bay, Sault Ste Marie and Sudbury. A day -trip. to Ottawa is planned for early June.
