New fencing for Aguasabon Generating Station Anyone who has re- cently visited the Hydro Generating Station at Aguasabon has pro- bably seen or else been made aware of the new fencing which was just erected by Ontario Hydro employees. The reason behind the fencing may be quest- ionable and Assistant Corporate Relations Of- ficer for the Northwest- ern Region, Linda Ash- by, was in Terrace Bay this week, to explain why. The property was fenced due to an influx of trespassers, 'fisher- men and what-have-you. Signs have been posted around the 'tailrace' on several occasions, warn- ing the people of the dangerous water condi- Mainstream Canada For Canadians, it's not all bad news by W. ROGER WORTH With depressing news about everything from unemployment to bank- ruptcies cluttering our daily lives, it is perhaps time to reiterate just how fantastically lucky we Canadians really are. First, let's consider the basics: Food - Thanks to our hardworking farmers and fishermen, the country has no shortage of foodstuffs. What's more, the prices (com- pared to most other countries) are among the lowest in the world. The Japanese, for ex- ample, spend about 40 per cent of take home pay on food products, and the West Germans about 30 per cent. Cana- dians lay out a lowly 22 per cent, which is not bad at all. Energy - We may complain about the high price of oil, gas and electricity, but at least we have an adequate supply. In fact, Canada: is now a net exporter of energy. . Shelter - Canadians are among the best housed people in the world and, compared to people in other nations, the cost is reasonable. One need only consider the tiny size of apart- ments in Japan or even Europe to understand how well off we are. Wealth - On a per capita basis, Canadians are among the wealthi- est people anywhere. We have such an abun- dance of land, water, minerals and other re- sources that people in other countries have dif- -ficulty understanding why we haven't de- veloped them to a great- er degree. Support Systems - Through such programs as unemployment in- surance and social as- sistance, Canadians are guaranteed that they won't starve and that they will have a roof over their heads. Medi- cal care and education is available to all, virtually anyone can re- ceive a university or technical school educa- tion at bargain base- ment prices. The support system may not be as elaborate as some would like, but it surely provides all needy Canadians with the basic necessities. Lifestyle - With a rela- tively low crime rate and few racial problems, Canadians live in a peaceful environment that impresses most visitors to the country. In addition, we have a democratic system of government that pro- vides the freedoms de- nied to a great propor- tion of the world's popu- lation. Canadians, it seems, are introspective. We complain about our seemingly horrendous day-to-day problems, giving little thought to the hundreds of millions of people who go to bed hungry. So perhaps it is again time to take stock. No matter what the news headlines may suggest, Canadians are very well off indeed. '*He busted his reading glasses." and . tions, but to no avail. The water around the tailrace area is push- ed through at such an extreme speed, that ac- cidents could very easily occur. The signs, as men- tioned before have not intimidated the tres- passers in the least. Therefore, Ontario Hydro had to use stricter methods to curtail this problem.
