REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN
to the
15TH ANNUAL MEETING
of
THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY
January-29-197l
It is again my pleasure to present to you the
Chairman's Annual Report this time for the year 1970.
This will be the first annual meeting held in the
new Administrative Office of the Authority, located on
a beautiful site on Shoreham Drive, near the Pioneer
Village. This handsome building will enable the Authority
to operate more efficiently in its ever-widening sphere
of responsibilities.
The present year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary
of the founding of the Conservation Authorities movement
which was brought about by the passing of the Conservation
Authorities Act in 1946. The passing of this Act was
a very important step in starting a movement which has
grown and thrived through the years, The number of Auth-
orities has increased to 38 in Ontario with 561 municipalities
represented and many hundreds of citizens actively working
on Authorities and having jurisdiction over 30,000 square
miles. As I have previously pointed out, over 4,600,000
people, or roughly 75 per cent of the total population
of the province, live in watersheds covered by Authorities.
Our Authority, having over 2,000,000 people, has one-third
of the population of Ontario in its domain.
This year also marks the fifteenth anniversary of
the formation of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Con-
servation Authority. While the four former Authorities
(Humber, Etobicoke-Mimico, Don and R.D.H.P.) had been in
existence,for various_periods. before 1957, it was not until
A-12
- 2 -
the Metro Authority came into being that significant progress
began to take place. During the year over 21,000 acres
of conservation lands have been acquired, a flood control
plan undertaken, hundreds of thousands of trees planted,
conservation areas developed, a Pioneer Vi11age~bui1t and
many educational programmes carried forward. This has been
done through the financial backing of the Provinc e and
municipalities, and in the case of flood control, by the
Federal Government. - , -

FINANCES
1 . , ,_ I
, '
In its first year of operation, in 1957, the Auth-
\,' -
ority spent $787,000 on all projects und this figure had
grown to $7,800,000 in 1970, or an increase of ten times
in the budget. This indicates the increased responsibilities
of the Authority in flood control and other projects in
the inter~ening years. The assumption of the development
of the waterfront by the Authority will require an i~cre,~~!3
in Authority budget to carry out the work. Increasingly
the region served by the Authority will requ1re an expansion
of funds to carry out the conservation measures necessary
to provide f~ood control, lakeshore developments, open
space and oth~r conservation needs for 1tS rapidly expanding
population. \
As C~airman, I wish again to ~xpress our deep
" '
appreciation for tpe solid financial support provided by
} ,(
our partners, t~~ m~nifipa1ities and the Provincial Govern-
ment. As is generally well known, the Provincial Government
supplies 50% of our .,funds and the mu~icipalities an equal
amount. For cer~a~n parts of our flood control plan the
I, I' r J.. I
Government of Canada a~sq enters a~ a par~~cipating p~rtne~: ,

FLOOD CONTROL
,
In 1961 the Authority began ~~ extensive flood ':
control development which was to c'ost $38,000,000 and require
A-13
- 3 -
ten years to complete. Due to rising construction costs
and the enormous increase in land costs, the project is not
completed as planned. The Authority has proposed a five
year extension of the plan and is at present attempting
to work out details with the Provincial Government. The
municipalities of the region have agreed to support this
plan.
CANADA WATER ACT
The new Canada Water Act of the Federal Government
has recently come into force. In just the last month the
Honourable 3.3. Greene, the Federal Minister, informed the
Honourable George Kerr, the Provincial Minister, that this
Act terminates the Canada Water Conservation Assistance Act,
which was the act under which the Federal Government supported
flood control projects such as those of the Metro Authority.
Mr. Greene went on to say that from this point
forward, available federal resources would be diverted to
achieve the objectives and the purposes of the Canada
Water Act. The priorities fixed, as presently viewed,
would be the Great Lakes, Ottawa and St. Lawrence River
Basins.
This decision means that the Federal Government
will not be participating in further flood control projects
in our Authority and we must be dependent upon the Provincial
Government for aid. It is to be hoped that the Provincial
Government will undertake to assume 75 per cent of the cost
of future projects. Without such support conservation
authorities in Ontario will find it almost impossible to
build new flood control structures. Flood control has a
greater priority to-day than ever before with the projected
population of bver eight million people within a ninety- .:
mile radius 'or:' M~'t;bpo1'i:tan:b"T6'rotrt.:o' by' ~h~: I f~'aF '26'00 ~ ' .., . "

INFORMATION AND EDUCATION DIVISION
The Authority has always taken a keen interest
in conservation education. It is through such education
that the younger generation is taught to appreciate conser-
vation values. The Authority has operated conservation field
centres at Albion Hills and Cold Creek Areas for several
years. Both of these centres have been very successful.
The new residential Claremont Conservation Field Centre came
into operation on March 31, 1970, and was officially
opened by Mr. ^lbert Campbell, the Metro Chairman, on June
5, 1970. All of the centres have been filled to capacity.
during the year, with nearly 7,500 students in classes
spending a day at the Cold Creek Conservation Field Centre
and over 2,000 students in residence weekly at the Albion
Hills Conservation Field Centre and the Claremont Conservation
Field Centre. Almost 2,200 students participated in the week-
end and summer programmes at Albion Hills and Claremont.
The Information and Education Division has also
had a successful seminar in education at the Claremont
Centre, People from other Authorities as well as from the
Department of Education took part. It was very encouraging
to note the great increase in interest and in educational
programmes since the last seminar which was held two years
ago.
The Authority enjoyed its usual excellent publicity
through the press, radio and television, and we again thank
our friends in these media for their enthusiastic cooper-
ation.
CONSERVATION AREAS
The Conservation Areas of the Authority continue
to attract visitors in ever-increasing numbers. On June
20, the new large C1airevi1le Area was officially opened
by the Honourable George Kerr, Q.C., Minister of Energy
and Resources Management. This large area comprising 1200
A-15
- 5 -
acres and including the C1airevi11e Dam is already attracting
thousands of people each week. When fully developed, it
will provide week-end accommodation for over twenty
thousand people. Plans are now underway to provide a
tourist camping site in the C1airevi11e Area which, when
completed will provide facilities which are sadly lacking
in the Metro area.
The attendance at the Conservation Areas in 1970
was as follows:
Albion Hills 238,124
Black Creek 240,505
Boyd 291,700
BruceY s Mill 241,096
C1airevi11e 121,249
Claremont 22,594
Cold Creek 44,075
Glen Haffy 58,159
Greenwood 70,875
Heart Lake 193,108
Humber Trails 5,010
Lower Rouge 40,563
Palgrave 10,461
Woodbridge 31,377
1,608,896
This constitutes an increase in attendance of
110,000 over the year 1969.
LAND
The open space being provided by the Authority
will prove to be one of the greatest assets to the region
in years to corne, The forecasts for population growth
are phenomenal and the new Toronto Centred Reg10n study
speaks of eight million people by the year 2000. rorecasts
such as this begin to make one realize that our estimate
of 40,000 acres of required conservation lands is modest
indeed.
During 1970 over forty new properties were added
and the present acreage stands at 2D,736 comprising 1,166
individual properties. There are a number of expropriations
outstanding but these are rapidly being finalized either
by negotiation or by arbitration. The Property Division
A-16 - 6 -
has been very busy during the year in carrying out the
routine administration management required in connection
with Authority owned lands involving agreements, easements,
taxes, leases, rentals and insurance. I am often surprised
when people ask me whether the Authority pays taxes, The
answer is that we do pay taxes on all of our lands.
PIONEEE VILLAGE
The Pioneer Village has had a very successful
year. The attendance increased by 54,000 over last year
to a total of over 250,000 people. This indicates the
interest in the Village which had an attendance of just
8,000 in its opening year in 1957. Since that time
1,838,000 persons have passed through this replica of a
typical Ontario cross-roads village of the period 1832 to
1867. The Village now has 31 buildings and will add to
these as suitable structures become available.
A highlight of the Village season was the opening
of the Town Hall which had been used formerly by the
Township of Wilmot. On this occasion, the present Wilmot
Township Council came over and held a meeting infue old
Town Hall. Reeve Alfred Richardson and his Council
officially turned over the Hall to the Pioneer Village,
The Honourable W. Darcy McKeough, Minister of Municipal
Affairs for Ontario, presented the main address and
officially opened the Town Hall,
The Village is also used as an educational facility.
The Information and Education Division of the Authority
arranges conducted tours and a Pioneer Life Programme for
school children and there are several classes with their
teachers present each day. Some 73,000 children were
taken through the Village during the year and a number of
classes each spent one week in the Village school.
A successful Pioneer Festival was held at the
Village with an attendance of 6,500, At these festivals,
A-17
- 7 -
the public has an opportunity to view the pioneer arts of
spinning and weaving and the making of such items as
sausages, apple butter and other pioneer items.
As with most of the other areas of the Authority,
the Village area is being used more and more during the
winter for sleigh rides and other winter ~astimes, Over
18,000 people took advantage of the winter activities
during the year.
THE FOUNDATION
The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation
Foundation has had a very successful year. This charitable
foundation, constituted to raise money for Authority
projects which could not ordinarily be financed through the
regular budgets, has reached a goal of $600,000. It
raised the AuthorityYs share of the cost of the Claremont
Field Centre which was opened in 1970.
The Foundation has been successful in develop-
ing an excellent conservation exhibit to be placed in the
Canadian National Sportsmen9s Show. The exhibit is being
financed by a magnificent gift of the Royal Bank of
Canada and the SportsmenYs Show is donating the large
space required.
The Foundation is now setting its plans to raise
funds to finance a very extensive environmental centre to
be located adjacent to the Grant Glassco property in the
Boyd Conservation Area. While the plans for this centre
are still in the planning stage, it should provide a new
concept of environmental education for young and old.
The Foundation plans to commence soliciting funds for
this purpose in 1971.
At the end of August, Mr. Charles Sauriol
resigned as Executive Director of the Foundation to take
up his new duties with the Nature Conservancy of Canada,
A,.. 1 8

The Foundation and the Authority wish to record their sincere
thanks to Mr. Sauriol for his great contribution to conser-
vation during the past many years. Mr. H.R. Ledingham has
been appointed to carryon the work as Administrative
Director of the Foundation. He has already indicated his
keen interest and we wish him success in this worthwhile
work. To Mr. Elgin Card and all the members of the
Foundation we express our thanks and deep appreciation
for their time and energy given to carry forward the plans
of this successful organization, Through their efforts
many thousands of children have enjoyed outdoor education
in the Albion Hills, Claremont and Cold Creek Centres and
many buildings in the Pioneer Village have been restored,
POLLUTION CONTROL
The subj ect of pollution control is a very popular
one at the present time. It creates a lot of public
discussion and a great deal of government concern. In
a wider sense, what we are talking about is the matter of
environmental control and the setting of standards for
acceptable environmental conditions.
It often seems to me that many of the advocates
of pollution control pursue a somewhat negative approach
or, perhaps stated in a broader sense, a rather narrow
view of the field of environmental control. It is my
view that the Conservation Authority has made a great
co~tribution to this field in a very positive way. It
has built reservoirs to conserve water and provide flood
control. These reservoirs form a positive source of river
flow and provide open space and human environments which
contribute to the well-being of people, Valley lands have
been purchased which provide recreation areas with
- ,
vegetatior- and natural amenities. Many houses have been
removed from the valleys with their polluting septic tanks.
A-19
- 9 -
Thousands of acres of conservation lands have provided
pollution free open space for people. On these lands
hundreds of thousands of trees have been planted, adding
their contribution of oxygen to 'the atmosphere. Many
channel improvements have served to reduce silting of
the rivers which is definitely a form of pollution.
The Authority has also carried out a very extensive
study on bank stabilization and erosion control on the main
branches of the streams within its jurisdiction. This
engineering study provides computerized information on
erosion and stability of banks, giving priorities and
other information which will provide a long-term plan for
the Authority and municipalities for the next fifteen
years,
DEVELOPMENT OF THE WATERFRONT
The designation of the Authority in November,
1970, as the implementing agency for the Metropolitan Toronto
Waterfront Plan marked the culmination of a study lasting
from 1962 to 1969. This study commissioned by the
Metropolitan Toronto Planning Board involved the intensive
efforts of a number of government agencies, both provincial
and municipal, together with citizen groups, Consultants
were also engaged to consider certain phases of the study.
The main interest in the planning process was the preparation
of a Waterfront Plan for the Metropolitan Toronto Planning
area. Two committees were formed, one an advisory, or
policy committee, and the other a technical committee,
All agencies of government involved in the area bordering
Lake Ontario between Clarkson and Ajax were represented on
these committees which devised the Waterfront Plan which
was presented to the Metvopolitan Toronto Planning Board,
The plan was approved by the Planning Board, sent on to the
Metro Council, and approved in principle.
A... 20 - 10 -
The Toronto region has three major land features
whic~ are of great conservation value and worthy of
preservation for public use, These are -
A, The River Va1l~vs which have been formed over many
hundreds of years and form natural run-off systems for the
densely developed areas in times of flood. In addition,
the acquisition and preservation of the valleys has added
thousands of acres of valuable park1ands to the Metro
region parks system. At the points where these valleys
open to the lake, the Authority has been able to develop
1akeshore conservation areas such as on the Rouge,
Petticoat Creek and Frencbman9s Bay, These park1ands on
the lake form an integral part of the Waterfront Plan,
B. The Niagara Escarpment Plan. This plan, which was
recently announced by the province, will ultimately produce
a beautiful stretch of park lands from Niagara Falls to the
top of the Bruce Peninsula. Ultimately, through purchase,
lease or other arrangement the public will have access to
these lands along the escarpment and the Bruce9s Trail will
be continuous for over four hundred miles. The Government
of Ontario has invited Conservation Authorities to take
part in this development and our own Authority is planning
to make land acquisitions starting this year.
C. The Waterfront, The fifty miles of shoreline
stretching from Clarkson to Ajax is one of the greatest
natural assets available to any large city in the world,
and with the implementation of the Waterfront Plan this
part of the Metro scene will develop into areas of much
needed recreation space,
It is not intended here to dwell at length on
the plans for the development of the central core of the
waterfront which will be the area bet~een Dufferin Street
and Coxwell Avenue. This section falls outside the portion
which will be developed by the Authority. However, the
plans for further development of the harbour, the new
A-21
- 11 -
Harbour City and all of the other features are magnificent
in conception.
D. Metropolitan TorontoVs development of the Toronto
Islands has provided areas of great recreational value and
has shown how waterfront sites can be developed for high
quality recreational experiences.
E. Ontario .P1ace which is being completed by the Pro-
vincial Government will be a very significant addition
to Exhibition Park. With its one hundred acres of is lands
apd lagoons taking advantage of a waterfront site to make
available in a most imaginative way a wide array of recrea-
tional and cultural opportunities,
F. The Toronto Harbour. This already famous international
harbour is having its eastern section redeveloped by a
1andfi11ed foreshore stretching two miles out into the
lake, This will create an eastern or outer harbour
permitting redevelopment and recreational and indu~trial
uses in the western end of the present harbour. The Harbour
Commission has had extensive experience in these operations
and undoubtedly its landfill techniques, both on the
eastern foreshore and at Ontario Place, will provide a
valuable technology for '. waterfront development over the
whole fifty mile stretch of the Waterfront Plan,
G. The Authoritv Work on the Waterfront. The AuthorityVs
jurisdiction will extend east from Coxwell Avenue to Ajax
and west from Dufferin Street to the Etobicoke Creek, In
the area beyond the Etobicoke watershed, development will
take place in co-operation with the Credit Valley Conser-
vation Authority.
In broad terms, the objective of the Waterfront
Plan is to create a handsome waterfront! balanced in its
land uses which will comp~e~~nt adja<?e!t~ r,areas, taking
\' ,
cognizance of existing residential cevelopment and making
A-22
- 12 -
accessible wherever possible features which warrant public
use.
The entire fifty miles of waterfront was divided
into seven sectors for study and analysis. It will be the
responsibility of the Authority to co-ordinate and administer
the development of six of these, the central sector being
excluded. Very briefly, these sectors and the prospective
developments are as follows:
(1 ) The Mississauga Sector. Here the objectives of the
plan, to be carried out by the Credit Valley Conservation
Authority, are to provide public open space on the water-
front for a variety of recreational facilities. This
sector is expected to serve an estimated 250,000 people
by 1980, There is substantial existing development in the
sector, particularly in the vicinity of Port Credit. The
plan provides for new access roads to avoid traffic
conflicts with competing uses; preservation of established
neighbourhoods and the provision of more parkland to serve
them. There will be a marina and boat launching ramps
and the reclamation of a limited amount of land to extend
the few opportunities for public access to the waterfront
which exist in the area,
(2 ) The Etobicoke Sector. This sector will be characterized
by major landfill projects to provide space for a wide
range of water-oriented activities to meet the growing
needs of western Metropolitan Toronto. Detailed studies
carried out by the Metropolitan Toronto Planning Board have
stressed the preservation of existing stable residential
neighbourhoods, provision of park space for areas now
inadequately served, and redevelopment where high-rise
apartments are to be encouraged. The new waterfront in
the Etobicoke sector will largely be made land in the lake
with a minimum of interference with existing riparian
rights,
.
A-23
- 13 -
(3) The Western Beaches Sector. This is an existing
major park area and plans here call for improvements to
the sewer system to control algae propagation, New boat
launching facilities are proposed and improved pedestrian
access from the south Parkda1e district as well as a safe
pedestrian access to the lower Humber Valley,
(4 ) The Eastern Beaches, Here, a limited fill programme
will create land to relocate the present marina facilities
at Ashbridge's Bay and also permit the extension of the
existing sewage treatment plant.
(5 ) The Scarborough Sector. The major objective in
this sector is to create 1akefront park areas which will
be metropolitan in size, function and attraction. Limited
fill is proposed to provide space for water-oriented re-
creation. In another detailed study commissioned by the
Metropolitan Toronto Planning Board, a means of maintaining
the rugged grand'eur of the Scarborough Bluffs is proposed.
It is proposed to control erosion and at the same time
create a small boat harbour. It is intended to preserve
the viability of relatively new and stable neighbourhoods
which adjoin the bluffs and retain the long ,term potential
for higher density residential buildings where this exists.
(6 ) The Pickering Sector. This is the sector in which
the Authority has been extremely active. Since 1966 we
have been working toward the principal objective of developing
a natural recreation potential which is unequalled along
the entire Metropolitan waterfront, in the form of sandy
beaches adjoining undeveloped valley lands. Important
purchases have already been made at -
a. The Lower Rouge
b. Petticoat Creek
c . Frenchman's Bay
d. Duffin's Creek
The plan recommends linking these areas by an
extension of Lawrence Avenue which would give good access
to all.
.. .~ '"' .

The development of the Waterfront Plan is a
challenge to the whole community, It can add a new and
exciting dimension to life in a community already leading
t~e continent in progressive resource development. With
the leadership being given by the government of the Province
of Ontario working hand in hand with the municipalities
which make up The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conser-
vation Authority,a' 1!laterfront for the whole community seems
assured,
ACTION ON THE WATERFRONT
Although the Authority was only designated on
November 23, 1970, as the ~plementing agency for the
development of the waterfront, it has already taken action
to further this important work, A Waterfront Advisory
Board has been set up with Mr. Albert Campbell as its
first Chairman. This Board has already had two meetings
to consider plans for pro~ects to be carried out in 1971.
A Waterfront Task Force, consisting of Authority
personnel and technical people from other inte~ested
boards and agencies has been created, It will be the
responsibility of this Task Force to carry out studies
and make recommendations to the Waterfront Advisory Board
concerning proposed developments on the waterfront. Their
task is to propose a ten year development plan and to select
works from this plan to form a five year project. The
project will specify and cover in detail the works to be
unde~taken in the five year period, As with all other
projects, this one will require approval by the Authority
and the Province and will be presented to the municipalities.
It is hoped to have these plans ready early in 1971 so that
some projects can be undertaken this year,
I again wish to acknowledge the strong support
of the Government of Ontario through the Department of
Energy and Resources Management. The Minis t er , the
A-25
- 15 -
Honourable George Kerr, Q.C, , has at all times given
sympathetic consideration to our problems. His efficient
staff in the Conservation Branch has given us strong
support and sound advice.
I would be remiss if I did not pay tribute at
this time to the Honourable John Robarts, Prime Minister
of the Province of Ontario. Mr. Robarts has not only
provided this Province with outstanding leadership but
has made a great contribution to Canada. The management
of the natural resources of this great province for the
uses of its people has been a matter of high priority
with Mr. Robarts. I am sure you will join with me in
expressing our best wishes to him in the future.
The twenty three municipalities including the
large Metropolitan Toronto have shown confidence in our
work, both through financial support and by participation
of individuals on our boards.
I am deeply indebted to the individual members
of the Authority, the Executive Committee and other Boards
for the many hours of concentrated effort they have con-
tributed to the problems of the Authority. Without such
dedicated help our plans for the year could not have
succeeded. Mr. F.A. Wade, Vice Chairman of the Authority,
merits special thanks for all of the duties he has so
cheerfully performed on our behalf.
It continues to amaze me how a staff of the modest
size of this Authority can continue to carryon the many
operational and planning processes required in our work.
With the assumption of the Waterfront Plan, the staff duties
will be greatly increased. We are very proud of our staff
and tender them our sincere thanks for excellent performance
during the year 1970,
THE FUTURE
I have recently stated that the big problem of
A-26
- 16 -
the seventies is that of attempting to improve and control
our human environment. The Authority has been placed in
a strategic position to participate in this worthwhile
venture. With the rapid growth in population of the
greater Metropolitan area in the next twenty years, life
will become increasingly intolerable unless heroic efforts
are put forth to enhance the environment.
The Authority has in its programme many projects
which should have a great influence on the outcome of the
struggle for better living conditions. Our flood control
plan is only 51% completed because of serious increases
in land and construction costs. However, means must be
found to continue the plan to completion since it is just
as viable today as when it was first conceived in 1961.
We need the flood control structures, with their water
conservation features as well as the conservation lands
surrounding the permanent lakes. The remaining channel
improvements and erosion control projects must be undertaken
within the next few years.
We must find means to acquire the remainder
of the river valleys both for flood control purposes and
to preserv~ them as parkland for the growing propu1ation,
The Authority now owns 21,000 acres of conservation
lands which make available open space to the public.
There is an urgency to increase these holdings to at
least 40,000 acres as quickly as funds can be made available.
Perhaps the greatest boon to future generations provided
by this Authority will be its open space spread over the
entire 1000 square mile area of its jurisdiction.
The Niagara Escarpment plan, recently announced
by the Government of Ontario, provides the Authority
with a further opportunity to participate in a grand scheme
to open a belt of public parkland from Niagara Falls to
the tip of the Bruce Peninsula. While our share of these
A-27
- 17 -
lands will not be large, we do intend to participate,commencing
in 1971.
The addition of the Waterfront Plan to the
Authority's responsibility has added a great new dimension
to our work. I have previously said that the waterfront
of Lake Ontario was one of the greatest undeveloped as~ets
of the region. Now that we have been given the job of
developing this asset, the Authority must show by its actions
that is possesses the energy and vision to produce facilities
along the 1akefront which will not only provide recreational
features for thousands of people but will bring an order
and beauty to the entrance to the great Metropolitan area.
This job is a challenging one and will require many years
to fulfil. It will also require increased finances in
keeping with the task.
