Zurich Citizens News, 1974-03-28, Page 10PAGE 10 ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1974 County Council wants information (by Shirley J. Keller) At a session of Huron County Council last Thursday, memb- ers once more reiterated their belief that if Ontario Hydro would make known their intent- ions concerning possible nuclear expansion in Huron, the county could use the information to the advantage of all. In a brief but somewhat frust- rating discussion, it was learned that since last month's council meeting there has been no fur- ther communication from Hydro regarding the unofficial annou- ncement that a nuclear plant is planned within 20 or 30 miles of Goderich. Reeve Everett McIlwain admi- tted he got "a little carried away" while speaking to council last Thursday. "There is no point of just objecting for objections sake, " said Mcllwain. "Farmers don't want to go back to pumping water by windmill. We're using more hydro all the time. It is a necessary item. It is needed by all industry." Mcllwain said there was a lot of talk about loss of farm land when "in actual fact, land was not lost." He advocat- ed knowing more about Hydro's plans as well as co-operation between Hydro and the people of the area. Warden Bill Elston said that Letter to editor Lions Head, Ontario, March 22, 1974. Zurich Citizens News, Zurich, Ontario. Dear Sir; Producers generally want to promote the sales of their prod- ucts. The liquor industry along with the others desires to prom- ote the sale of its wares. This desire has led to what many consider to be a dangerous half- truth. The liquor industry continu- ally presents a picture of att- ractive, well-dressed young people enjoying a moment of relaxation along with the use of its product. We'll grant that there is an element of truth here --in that this is the mann- er in which many of the youth of our day do enjoy a moment of relaxation. But this is not the whole truth. The use of alcoholic bev- erages is associated with other situations. It is associated with drunkeness, highway accidents, death, broken homes, impover- ishment etc. This is one side of the picture that is rarely if ever brought to the attention of the general public. I understand that in the prov- ince of British Columbia all liquor advertising has been ban- ned. In this province youth and thepublic generally are allowed to make an open, unbiased dec- ision about the use of this prod- uct. Would this not be a saner position for our province to take? I for one would be much hap- pier to live in a province where my children were not constantly and persistently, and right in their own living room, dinned with this dangerous half-truth. Liquor advertising s.hould be banned in Ontario so that our children could make an open, unbiased responsible decision apart from this daily, and sometimes hourly barrage of a dangerous half-truth. Rev. Bill Wilkinson Lion's Head, Ontario. Many women would be more spfc if they had less span. in his opinion, the main probl- em was that farmers are not receiving enough financial consideration from Hydro when lines cross their land.
