"For too long our nation's
farmers have had to carry the
cost of a cheap food policy while
everyone else involved in the food
industry make a profit once food
left the farm gate.
"We wish to reiterate our views
expressed to this Committee
previously.
"In the interest of Huron
County retaining a rural
predominance, we believe any
future plans to build a hydro
generating station must be
blocked.
"Any planning authority
existing in Huron County should
exercise every clause possible in
the Planning Act to prohibit
hydro from building a proposed
generating station,
"In the first place, if rural
municipalities do have the
control, as the provincial
government claims, and if the
area for such a station is zoned
agriculture, such a development
would require a zone change to
industrial -or whatever. Secondly,
severances would probably be
required.
"We are saying Huron County
should persistently refuse to yield
to a development that will only
facilitate the destruction of rural
Huron.
"The Huron County Plan is
really a form of regional'
government on a much smaller
scale than the Provincial
Government would prefer to
shove down our throats. For
purposes of health care we
strongly recommend this is the
way it should remain.
"Again, we wish to reiterate
our views expressed to this
Committee last year on coor-
dination of hospital boards.
"-that a District Health Council
be made up of one member from
each of the existing hospital
boards and one nurse from each
hospital.
"-that each hospital should not
try to be proficient in every
specialized function, but that
each should specialize in certain
services that will best serve the
public efficiently.
-that active treatment beds not
be used for non-active treatment,
and that other facilities be found
to accommodate these patients
awaiting treatment in other
centres,
-that Huron County should
establish a District Health Council

to coordinate the various hospital
boards in the county.
-Huron County, having an of-
ficial plan, is in a position to
incorporate hospital
management on a county -wide
basis that could result in efficient
health care."
