DEFECT.
Canada could be caught in the
centre of the energy crisis even
though she has succeeded in
cushioning the blow in the
meantime, Larry Higgins
economist and load production
supervisor at Ontario Hydro's
Toronto office said in Clinton
recently -
Mr. Higgins was speaking to
about 100 contractors, . builders,
and electricians from Huron,
Perth, and Lamb -ton Counties who
had gathered for the special
information and equipment
display night put on by the
Clinton Region of Ontario Hydro
at the Clinton Legion.
Mr. Higgins said the energy
crunch would be felt in the next
ten years or so when demand,
especially in the United States,
would far outstrip supplies. Oil
and gas reserves,would be low for
the United StateF, in 1985 and
could be low in Canada at that
time, depending on how much of
her supplies Canada sells to the
U.S.
.Mr. Higgins told the
contractors that much of the short
fallwould be met with electrical
power, which would come either
from coal or nuclear powered
generators. Canada .he•said has a
large source of uranium to power
her nuclear power plants if it
"doesn't do something stupid .
and sell it all," he said.
. There could come the day, Mr.
Higgins said, when the use of gas
and oil as a primary energy
source could be banned by, law
because they would be more
valuable in the petro-chemical
industry. He cited the case of
natural gas, which is a prime
ingredient in fertilizers.
He also said that the energy
crisis was still a.very serious thing

even though the media and the
public had passed over it like, a
fad. The energy crisis, he said,
could be even more serious in the
next ten years or so.
He said that Canada and the
U.S. have had totally opposite oil
policies. He said the U.S. has,
been obsessed with* considering
national security, while the
Canadian policy has shown a total
lack of regard for national
security.
