27,1987 Helpless pawns no longer Letters to the Editor If the threat to close is a bargaining ploy, the company's commitment to its employees and to the County must be questioned.The employees have worked hard for this sawmill, they have contributed to its profitability in the past, and they have very few alternatives for work.Using them as pawns in a game to force the government to back down, would be reprehensible.People's lives are at stake The closing of a mill is always a tragedy for the town in which it is located, especially when it is the major employer in the area.The closure of the J.E.Boyle sawmill in Davidson, threatened by its owners, E.B.Eddy Forest Products, could well turn out to be such a disaster.Dear Editor: There are several misleading statements in Mr McGuinty's last letter.First, the Ministry of Environment's preliminary agreement in principle does not say that the rock walls of the pit meet specifications.It speaks about waterproofing of fractures.Second, all leachate will not be pumped out of the pit, since all the water will not reach the bottom, where the pump will be located.Water simply cannot seep through several feet of compacted garbage containing lots of compressed plastic bags and other impermeable materials.Some will saturate the garbage and under pressure, make its way throught he fractures in the walls of the pit, contaiminating ground water, wells and the Ottawa River.The hydrogeological study on Hilton Mine, made for Sanitech Lamarche by a division of Lavalin, clearly states on page 27 that \"the leachate from the dump, will migrate into the local water table.\" All hy-rogeologists and research scientists in the federal government consulted by Concerned Citizens Committee confirmed this fact.Either Mr McGuinty is purposedly hiding the facts to confuse the people of Bristol, or he has not read the hydrogeological study himself.In that case who is the misinformed individual?If this dump becomes a reality, it is certain that water pollution will occur.This is a fact and no puppet working committee will change it.The CCC is devoted to opposing the proposed giant dump at Hilton Mine.It is ludicrous to expect its members to cooperate in a working committee promoting this dump.Editorial rates.Most Canadian lumber is in demand despite the fifteen percent surtax the Americans forced the federal government to apply on softwood exports.The exporters of expensive softwoods (red and white pine) are finding that they have to absorb some of the surtax, thus reducing their profits.A recent reduction in the exchange rate has also cut into these profits to the extent that right now the export of red and white pine has been converted from a profitable to a borderline or losing proposition.Several hundred men will be thrown out of work directly.They have already received their lay-off notices.Hundreds more, working in small businesses in Mansfield and in Fort-Coulonge or cutting wood in the forests, will also be adversely affected.The effect on this community, already burdened with high unemployment will be terrible.Several years ago, in Temisca-mingue, after a pulp mill was closed by its owners, the employees took it over and re-opened it.Today Tembec is a successful pulp mill.It is even considering expanding into the Pontiac.The same thing may be possible at the mill in Davidson.E.B.Eddy is now involved in negotiating the stumpage charges with the MER.Considering what they have to lose it is difficult to see their threat to close as anything more than an attempt to pressure the government into reversing its position.If E.B.Eddy does not cut its annual allotment, it will be given to another mill, and there are many, located outside the County who want it.E.B.Eddy claims that the sawmill must close because the cost of wood is too high.Much of its wood comes from crown land forests in Pontiac County, administered by the provincial government through the Ministry of Energy and Resources (MER).The government has recently changed its policy for managing these forests.The changes include a major increase in the stump-age fees charged to the forestry indus- If the employees really do want to keep the sawmill running, Tembec could be a useful model.There would doubtless be a lot of government assistance available, and there are many people in the County who would be willing to help.Pontiac has forever been at the mercy of Canada's large forestry companies.Quite often, what has been good for them has benefited the County as well.Now though, it seems this is not necessarily so.Pontiac must be prepared to take control of its destiny should the opportunity present itself.Sincerely yours, Maria Aniskowicz Bristol Dear Editor: An association of Bristol residents, homeowners and taxpayers is now formed in complete support of the Sanitech-Lamarche landfill.This means that we will promote the development of this new industry in accordance with the stipulations of the Québec Ministry of the Environment and other recognized bodies.Our aim as an association is to see progress; this entails safeguarding the environment.This is why we recently attended a conference on waste management and our research liaison has hard evidence supporting and demonstrating the safety of this industry.It has proven unhealthy to have stood alone for this landfill; loss of friends and threats to one's job are simply not fair.Together we will be counted, and our range of influence to make Bristol a better place is going to be far greater than approving individually.We are excited about the opportunity now before us but only responsible actions and good constructive dialogue from all parties is going to give to us the benefits we need.try.The reason for this increase is to encourage the forestry companies to become more involved in the management and reforestation of their allocation.Most of the money spent by each company on management will be reimbursed by the government from the stumpage fees.Rustic Rhetoric iillllliipMilMpifaillMia Missing ingredient Canadian Author# by Amelia Br|||loff A few years ago I spent and businesses in Pontiac many evenings with

Religion, seems to me dependent on the awakening of our faith in the Future,\" writes Teillhard de Chardin.\"Faith in progress.\" Divided into three sections The Fragile Lights of Earth is a collection of Gabrielle Roy's articles, stories and essays, written over a period of thirty-years - a moving reflection on her life and work.Revealing G.R.as a writer, philosopher and poet they are grouped according to theme, and span the observations of a lifetime.The book begins with a series of articles exploring the remote settlements of Hutterites, Doukhobors, Mennonites, Jews and other immigrant groups across the Canadian prairies.For three reasons her facts about these ethnic groups are very authentic.She visited each of the settlements and usually stayed overnight.Then her father, a civil servant, was assigned to settling immigrants \"on the virgin lands\" of the prairies.When he came home from his long expeditions among the settlers, he always brough fresh news about the unruly Doukhobors, the quiet Ruthenians, the devout Mennonites and others.And because her mother's fascination for these groups was stronger than her mistrust, she often took her children to visit them.\"The Arabian Nights of my childhood were made up of these excursions into Little Wallonia, Little Ukraine, Little Auvergne, Little Scotland, Little Brittany, wherever they were in Man- Sincerely Alain Côté Coordinator Canada-Quebec agri -food agreement Dear Editor: I have been following the battle of the Hilton Mine with interest and increasing excitement.For it seems to me that what's playing here is a mini-saga that is the pulse of our perceptions of garbage.On the one side, we have Mr Lamarche, a sincere, intelligent businessman, who is using tried and true methods of launching a successful business - providing jobs, removing an eyesore and doing something socially beneficial.On the other side is a new consciousness represented by the Concerned Citizens Committee.They have the awareness and foresight to realize that the deadly poisons so casually tossed in our garbage these days, tend to turn up in unexpected areas, despite conscientious efforts to anticipate and control them.Set this against the international backdrop of the New York City garbage barge wandering the seas in search of a dumping spot, and it's easy to see garbage is a hot issue.A new player on the stage is the proposed incinerator in Gloucester, Ontario.Incinerated garbage has been successful in Europe.In reduces the mass, recycles a good percentage of glass and metal, and provides heat as a source of energy.While this is a mqjor step, which may, thankfully, take the pressure off Bristol, I personally hope that the pointers raised by the Concerned Citizens Committee aren't lost.First, that a group of individuals steadfastly saying \"No\" have enormous power.Second, that it's time to take stock of our role as consumer, and realize the inherent responsibility to deal with the resulting 'garbage'.Landfill definitely fails as a viable option.Incinerating garbage, while reducing the amount, brings its own problems of emissions.The most effective way of reducing our garbage is by reducing our intake, and recognizing anything left for what it is: a valuable resource.Thanks for the thought-provoking show.dustry from moving into Pontiac.We have and have had many business
