Senator meets wit
BY
• JACK IHDDFJ
M.P.P.
Senator Hazen Argue met
with the Liberal Caucus last
week and discussed matters
of an agricultural nature, in-
cluding the compensation to
farmers for losses resulting
from the. 1980 partial em-
bargo en grain sales to the
USSR,.
In support of the US par-
tial embargo, Canada,
agreed not to sell. more than
3.8 million tonnes of wheat
and other grain to the USSR
in 'the 1979-1980 crop year:
That promise was kept,
Senator Argue said, and the
Governinent decided last Ju-
ly, not to limit grain exports
in this crop year which
helped strengthen grain
prices. The United States
lifted its partial grain' em-
bargo on April 24, 1981 and
the Canadian Government
has now calculated . the
--amount of producer losses
for which compensation will
be paid. Compensation will
be paid on wheat, oats,
barley and corn, covering
the period' from January 4 to
July 31, 1980.
Ontario winter wheat pro-
ducers will be paid directly
using delivery records of the
Ontario Wheat Producers
Marketing Board. However,
corn growers and others not
covered by • these direct
payments will be required to

Electrical power
• transmission expansiorr,
OntarioHydro has been
studying alterative plans
for expanding the bulk
power transmission system
for Southwestern Ontario.
From the fall of 1976 through
to the summer of 1977,
Citizen committees in
Southwestern Ontario, met
and discussed environmen-
tal constraints to the location
of future bulk power
transmission faCilities' in
Southwestern Ontario. In
1977 the Committees concur-
red that Ontario Hydro
should proceed to .develop
electrical system plans that
would be suitable for
Southwestern Ontario.
In the meantime the Royal
Commission on electric
power planning held 'hear-
ings on the need for addi-
tional power facilities in
J._ 2,
' r
Li
eral Caucus
Southwestern Ontario.
Public involvement on this
study was -postponed .until
the Commission had submit-
ted its report. The final
report was subMitted in
February, 1980.
On the basis of the Com-
mission's findings the
Goverranent has requested
Ontario Hydro -to. proceed
with the next. stag$ of the
planning and app -: pro-
cess. Ontario Hydro
prepared a document which
describes six system plans
and it will conduct public
discussion of the alter-
natives. The plans will be
distributed• widely
throughout' Southwestern
Ontario and will provide an
opportunity for the public to
respond prior to Ontario
Hydro subrnitting an en-
vironmental assessment
document for review under .
the Environmental Assess-
ment Act.
Ontario Hydro will be con-
ducting an extensive public
participation program
throughout Southwestern
Ontario to ensure that the
citizens are aware of the pro-
posals and have .oppor-
tunities to become involved
in the study of the alter-
natives. The proposed
schedule includes about
three years for planning and
public involvement running
parallel with about two
years of government review
and public hearings.
It will likely take an addi-
tional four years for land ac-
quisition and construction of
the transmission line once

Dioxin in fish
The Minister of the En-
vironment, Keith Norton,
has stated that he was
mistaken when he said
recently that a form of diox-
in has been found in -fish in
the Great Lakes. Only fish
from Lake Ontario have
been found to contain TCDD,
the most toxic of the 75
member family of dioxin
chemicals.
