notification, when he had asked:
about compensIkt:Ion . earlier ^--
"when .there were,four times as
Many here as there are 'no'w"
Noting that the mblem was
one which he hadn't thought of,
Mr., Fraser urged farmers; to
write about it to Ontario Hydro,
He also apologised or not telling
about the notification period, "I
misunderstood your question
earlier," be said "It certainly
wasn't a' political decision .on my
part and I apologize."
The same point was raised ear*
Herby John Verbeek of RR 1, *
towel, a Wallace Township far-
mer who said even crop logic of
one season because of construe-.
tion could force him'to sell some
of his valuable ' breeding stock.
Saying that Hydra was willing
to pay a "reasonable" a Xloijnt. in
compensation, Mr. Mosher, said,
`You can't expect' us' to be• more
than reasonable.
"Alright," ,replied ,lair. Arm -0

his farm, Ha'rrywinkel wanted. to
know if Hydro would. help him:,to
tile land on that farm Which be
was Ow planning to do,. if he sold
the land to Hydro and then :lic-
enced it back. •
"No," replied Mr. Fraser, "we ..
don't compensate, nor do we pay
you to tile. You would have to ob-
tain your own financial help
through the normal loan or grant
procedure- We would allow you to
tile drain the land and we would
work with you to See' those 'tile.
went in where we wouldn't have
to disturb them too much if we
had to go: in to' repair a line." '
Another farmer said this
W .0 enough- `N9140 11! t
lvl:e'haY. gel a
loan now you :tell n e, v a , at
place is going to lend him money
to tile land he doesn't own?" Still
another farmer said, he didn't
think tile drainage grants were
available to farmers in this.situa-
tion either.
"If this is true, then about all I
can say is that I will recommend
to my department that we strong-
ly urge the act be changed'," Mr.
Fraser said.
Power Greed
" A number of farmers along
with,George Adams of RR 2,
Wroeter and Lloyd Moore of RR
1, Listowel, chairmen of the How -
ick and Wallace corridor groups
respectively, .criticized Hydro 'for
trying to get more land than.
needed for the power for which
they had received approval.
"From the information you
have given, for power from Wing -
ham east for the next 20 years,
you only now have approval for
one 230 kV and two 500 kV lines,
so why do you want land for .an
extra 500 kV line for 1990?" Mr.
Moore questioned. "You are ask-
ing for twice the' energy needed
all the way down the line. Your
present approvals will, cover
energy needs out of Bruce for the
next 20 years and 20 years is far
enough ahead to plan."
Dr. Bob Walker, a senior ecol-
ogist with Ontario Hydro, said at
present Hydro favors the most
southerly route, following High-
way 86 east for the right-of-way to
a station site at the corner of
Woolwich and Peel Townships.
But since the lines must event-
ually hook up with Milton, the
final route will be determined to
some extent by the selection of
the route across the Niagara
escarpment. He said a .separate
study is now being made and a
decision regarding the escarp-
ment crossing is expected short-
ly,
Mr. Mosher said a single line
now going through the city of Kit-
chener will be replaced by three
lines.,"So farmers aren't the only
ones being inconvenienced... We
know you pea jlWdon't want this
line, but it would be irresponsible
for us to throw up our hands ahhd
say it's impossible."
In response to another farmer's
concern over how his farm would
depreciate because of the con-
struction of a tower line through
it, Mr. Fraser said Hydro was
now waiting to fearn the findings
of a real estate study on that sub-
ject.
Fences, Trees
Farmers also asked questions
regarding the safety of the lines,
their effect on such things
electric fences and Hydro's pol,s
icy concerning the cutting of
hardwood trees.

Harry Gibson, dispelled thegdea
that farmers today are "old .far-
mers". In a survey taken of How-
ick Township, he said, the cwi-
mittee found . there were only 15'
farmers .over the age of 40, 37
farmers betweerithe :ages of 35,40
and 26 farmers were under; '35'•
years of age. •
"You're talking about disrupt-
ing the lives of a lot of young, fat-
mers," he said.
In order to cut down on soil dis-
ruption during the, construction,
Mr. Walker said Hydro was now,
instructing its sub -contractors to
take off the top soil first and store -
it to be put on last, thus causing a
minimum of disturbance.
Farmers also criticized Hydro
officials for "not telling us about
the station planned for Goderich
last fall" and were especially
angry about the fact the Hydro
team had shown up without its
agriculture specialist.
Members of the team admitted
that "perhaps we made a mis-
take" in not having the agricul-
ture specialist present.
Pat Daunt of RR 2, Gorrie
charged that Hydro had not fol-
lowed the recommendations of
"our Ag. reps one iota".
A survey of Wallace Township
showed, said Mr. Daunt, thaf93:7
per cent of the township was class
one farmland, the very land Hy-
dro planned to cross.
"'Now you can't tell me you
were concerned about agricul-
tural land and get around that,"
he declared.
