Terms' of reference of the committee called for an ex- amination of several areas ,of Hydro's . planning •strategy,- _including _ _the various merits of large, small, remote and urban area generating stations, the ratio.of new nuclear plants to fossil f celled stations and the' economics of nuclear power in 'comparison with generation fromother fuer.

Hydro, Hugh Macaulay conceded that . "the process of public discussion of what Hydro is doing has served the people well." YOU'LL DO BET'T'ER AT A&P Interest rates Because of the serious situation with the high in- terest rates, I have again raised the matter in the House and asked the Minister of Agriculture and Food, Lorne Henderson, if he was aware of the tactics be- ing employed by some , bankers whereby . farmers, instead of receiving an ex- tension xtension to their operating loans, are being compelled to'extend their mortgages in order to obtain the money to operate their farms from one year to the next. - I asked the Minister if there was anything the government can do to check the tremendous power of the banks. I suggested that a review agency be set up to look at what is going .on within . the lending in- stitutions and the way they are treating the fanners, so that we can stop any further foreclosures and bankrupt- cies, until the cases are studied further. I told the Minister that should interest rates go to 22 percent or even 25 percent as predicted, we are going to see a lot of farms come on the market for sale. It was because of these reasons among others, that I called for an Emergency Debate in the Legislature on April 23, but this was re- jectedby the government. Therefore, it was en- couraging that the Minister of Agriculture and Food, this week agreed, to meet his Federal counterpart to -ask for assistance for farmers. Henderson asked for relief for farmers hit by high in- terest cost and low hog and beef prices. He also an- nounced the establishment of a committee to review the operations of Ontario farmers whose creditors are about to call loans. Hydro rates This week in the Legislature I also questioned the Minister of Energy, Robert Welch, about the rugal -urban hydro rate dif- ferential and whether it should be eliminated as an- nounced by the Premier last year, now that Ontario Hydro has proposed an 8.6 percent average increase in its 1982 wholesale power rate. I wanted to know whether the urban -rural rates would be equalized or would they merely be reduc- ed to 15 percent above the ur- ban rate, as Ontario Hydro has recommended in the report to the government of November 1980. Welch replied that there Turn to page 5A e YOU'LL D� BETTER AT A&P YOU'LL DO BETTER AT A&P Prices effective thru Saturday, May 30th, 1981 We reserve the right to limit quantities to normal family requirements) Soper Saving` Week Sweet, Juicy Great in Salads or Dips Canada.
