Envisions Canal Between Lake Simcoe And Ontario Ottawa (Special) -- De- spite criticism of his proposal for a commercial » ship. canal from Georgian Bay to Lake On- tario, Liberal Member of Par- liament Perry Ryan is still con- vinced that the scheme is worth investigating. An outline of his proposal, published in December, brought criticism from Heber S mith, MP for Simcoe North, and oth- ers, who declared it was im- practical, impossible and un- economical. "TI have never said the propo- sal is economically feasible at the present time," Mr. Ryan said in an interview here. 'But I am convinced the canal could be built and that it would pre- sent many advantages, both for Great Lakes shipping and for the area through which it passes." NO RECORD OF STUDY He placed a question on the House of Commons' order paper seeking information as to whether there is a record of any study of a canal between the vicinities of Pefferlaw and Oshawa and between Barrie and Collingwood. He was told there was no record of a study of the Pefferlaw to Oshawa canal but that a reconnaiss- ance survey of a canal between Barrie and Collingwood was made in January, 1906. Mr, Ryan said he is im touch with Ontario authorities about the present hydro plants on the Trent, Severn and Black waterways and will be making efforts to get copies of the 1906 report and any old studies of a canal between Cook's Bay on Lake Simce and Torcnto. He envisages a north canal running from Barrie to Notta- wasaga Bay near Collingwood, a distance of about 22 miles with a drop of only 137 feet, requir- ing few locks. He does not be- lieve the flow of water from Lake Simcoe would be exhorbi- tant to supply this section as flow would take place only when the locks were opened. At the same time there is no possibil- ity. of any hydro development on this section. The southern section presents more problems because of the height of land south of Lake Simcoe which would require Citizenship Is Stressed SECOND SECTION OSHAWA, ONTARIO, SATURDAY, JANUARY 26, 1963 Cap Nurses Here Sunday The capping ceremony for the Branson School of Nursing Class of 1965 will be held in the College Park Seventh-day Ad- ventist Church, Oshawa, at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 27.

NEED MORE WATER Mr. Ryan agrees with the criticism that Lake Simcoe would have to provide enough water for the canals in both directions. But he believes the |water problem could be over- come by a complete reorienta- tion of the entire drainage sys- tem of the area. More water could be diverted from Balsam lake and from By Kiwanis The Kiwanis Clubs of Oshawa and Westmount (Oshawa) today issued a call to all citizens of the community to give sober consideration to their respon- sibilities as citizens in a free society.
