Dr. G. Ross Lord F.L. Lunn Chairman Secretary- Treasurer A -10 SCHEDULE erAse REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN to the 14TH ANNUAL MEETING of' THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY January -30 -1970 I. It is again my pleasure to bring you the Chairman9s Report - this time, for the year 1969 - the thirteenth year of operation of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Con - servation'Authority. Thirteen years is not a long time in the life of any organization. Yet, as one considers-the progress that has been made and the tangible achievements, such as flood control, conservation education and''coriser'vat- ion areas, - a certain amount of quiet pride is justifiable. The success of the Authority has been due to the foresight of the Provincial Government in setting up the Conservation Authorities Act in 1946 and in its agreement to help finance Authorities. However, success could not have been achieved without two further important'ingredients. These were the support and active participation, both financially and, in many ways, of the twenty -three municipalities - comprising the Metro Conservation Region,-and perhaps'the most important factor, the citizens who believed so firmly in the principles of conservation'that they were willing to give unstintingly of their time, abilities and effort while acting on the Authority, its Boards and Committees. This citizen involvement is the real secret of the deep - rooted concern and strong and healthy development'of' conservation in Ontario. It is interesting to note: that, since 1946, 3$ Authorities have been formed in'Ontarb' -' 33 in,Southern Ontario an 5 in Northern Ontario. These. Authorities embrace 561 municipalities and have jurisdict ion over 29,061 square miles. In other words, 4,500,000 people, or 75 per cent. of the total population of the province live in watersheds covered by Authorities. The Metro Authority, having some 2,000,000 people in its 1,000 -2- A -11 square mile area, has roughly 30 per cent. of the population of Ontario within its borders. I make this comparison because it has very serious implications for the future and merits some later discussion. II. LAND It has often been said that one of the greatest assets of a Conservation Authority is open space. During the year, some 1,571 acres of land were added to our holdings and we now own 1,125 individual properties, comprising some 20,000 acres. This is a very valuable asset, worth many millions of .dollars, and it will increase in value in the future. With the development of reservoir areas, flood plain and Conservation Areas, the Authority is able, in large measure, to control floods, protect valleys and source areas, work toward pollution control and other objectives. I am often asked if the Authority will ever be satisfied with the amount of land it owns. My reply is always somewhat as follows: The total region is not large just 1,000 square miles; where 2 million people live - one -third of the population of Ontario. The other two - thirds have' 56,000 square miles of conservation authorities. At the rate of growth of the Metropolitan Region, 60,000 per -year, it is not exaggerating to predict that the population of the region will be around 4 millions.by the year 2000 - regardless of regional municipal boundaries. The importance of open space, in the form of conservation lands, is,now generally recognized by most informed citizens. The necessity for such space will become more and more urgent as the population grows. The-concluding remarks in my annual report last year were: ?In this report I have tried to suggest that there are some important conservation objectives which can be achieved or lost - depending upon the strength of our desires. The Metro region :A-12, -3- is developing fast - faster than almost any other place on the continent . It is within our power to determine the sort of place this will be in the year 2000. It could easily become another colossus of slums and cramped living, such as several cities below the border. On the other hand, it can become the finest city in the world, with ample parklands, controlled pollution, exciting architecture and a place where children can grow "in wisdom and stature and in favour with God and man". ' I rewrite this because I wish to state most strongly that the acquisition of the necessary open space is the most important objective in assuring that Greater Metro will survive as a living community in the future. The Authority must press on in its land acquisition to bring , the total to 40, 000 acres as quickly as possible. III . PEOPLE (a) Room to Breathe The Authority has continued to make open space , available to the people of the Region. The total attendance at conservation areas was 1,426,296 during 1969 - an increase of 8% - with an encouraging winter use for skiing, skating, tobogganing and snowmobiling. The Pioneer Village had over 180,000 visitors ; and four Areas - namely Albion Hills, Boyd, Bruce's Mill and Heart Lake - each had over 200,000. No new areas were opened during the year, but a ' significant contribution to the Authority's land holdings was received as a result of a grant through the will of the late Mr. Grant Glassco. Mr . Glassco left his land, adjoining the Boyd Conservation Area, to the people of Ontario, to, be developed as conservation land. This land has been made available to the Conservation Authority on - -4- A -13 a long term basis through the Ontario Heritage Foundation. Consisting of over 450 acres of beautiful rolling hills and forest adjacent to the Boyd Area, it will permit wonderful development for future use of the people. The Authority is most happy to have this splendid acquisition and expresses its sincere appreciation to Mrs. Grant Glassco and her family. This beautiful ' Glassco Park' will ever remain as a living memorial to the great Canadian whose name it will bear. (b) Our Heritage There is a tendency these days to hurry so quickly through the present and into the future that we forget our past. Canadians, above all others, should be proud of their pioneer heritage and cherish its traditions and artifacts. The Authority is proud to share the task of preserving a small oasis of pioneer days in the Black Creek Pioneer Village. Developed as a living village, with eighteen buildings restored and three more in process, and having horses, oxen, sheep, ducks and other animals on 'its 'farm, it presents a never - ending place of interest to young and old. Over 54,000 school children were taken through tb.et buildings on educational tours and 180,000 adults browsed through ,the settings reminiscent of the days of their great - grandparents. The major new construction during .,the ;year was the .completion of a restaurant in the basement of the Half Way House, which will be open in the 1970 season. The area in and around the Village has received extensive landscaping, through the generous support of The Gardenlp.ub of Toronto, which has subscribed over $20,000.00 for this,purpose. We express our deep appreciation for this gift, which will develop and beautify with the years. (c) Educating the Young One of the better definitions of conservation which' comes to hand is one which appeared recently in The Royal` A -14 -5- Bank of Canada Monthly Letter: 'Conservation is the planned management and wise use of nature's resources. It aims, in co- operation with science and nature, to increase their quality, quantity and availability through the years. Con- servation is not merely a subject for a school curriculum or for the attention of conservation officers and departments of government; it is a way of life for all people., f This definition in, its last words suggests that for conservation to succeed, people must think and act con- servation. In order to think and act conservation, people must know and understand conservation and certainly must believe in its precepts. This requires education. It has been said that if the young are educated to appreciate and believe in conservation, the future of sound conservation practices will be assured. It is for this basic reason that the Authority has developed outdoor education; first at its Albion Hills Conservation Field Centre, then at the Cold Creek Conservation Field Centre and, in the coming, year, at the new Claremont Conservation Field Centre. The Albion Hills Centre had 2,931 students and 369 student teachers during the year, operating fifty weeks of the year. Cold Creek Centre, operating on a daily basis, looked after 6,560 students. When the Claremont Centre is completed in March, 1970, it will be ready to take its share of ,classes and teachers living in for five days each week. These educational Centres, coupled with hikes, Pioneer Village tours and other, events, have given conservation instruction to 14$,412 young people in 1969. (d) The Foundation The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation has made its main enterprise of the year the raising of funds to build the new Claremont Conservation Field Centre. They mounted a most successful campaign and -6- A -15 and the Centre is now nearing completion. Sited in a beautiful location - overlooking the Claremont Conservation Area,-the building is constructed of cedar logs and will soon be ready to provide classrooms,' laboratory, lounge and dormitory accommodation for a school class of 45 students and six student teachers. This Centre adds to the tremendous debt we all owe to Mr. Elgin Card, Chairman, Mr. Charles Sauriol, Executive Director, and members of the Foundation for the time, energy and deep interest they have contributed to make the Foundation effort a success. The Foundation has now raised over $500,`000.00 in contributions towards projects which could not have been achieved without such support. (e) The Workers Like any other project demanding action, conservation must have its workers. In the policy area, members of the Executive Committee, the Authority and its Committees have given.of their time and abilities to the consideration and solving of the myriad of problems that arose during the year. I wish to again thank Mr. Fred A. Wade, Vice - Chairman, for his strong support during the year. The day -to -day work of the Authority is carried out by our Staff: From the leaders in head office to the superintendents of Areas and the field staff, it would be hard to find a more effective team. They show by their achievements that conservation to them is more than just - a-job. It is 'a way of life9 and' an opportunity to create and contribute. Enter any one of our Areas and you will sense that the superintendent and his staff are proud of' their domain. They take pride in its development and in maintaining it to the highest'standards. We are very fortunate indeed to have attracted an efficient and talented staff and to have had most of them stay with us for many years. A -16 -7- (f) The Governments The Authority has continued to receive strong technical and financial support from The Government of Ontario. The Honourable George Kerr, Q.C.; Minister of Energy and Resources Management, and his most capable staff, have encouraged us by their leadership to press forward during 1969. We acknowledge the financial support of the Federal Government in flood control and express the fervent hope that our temporary difficulties in this field will be ironed out to-the satisfaction of all - concerned. A proper solution will be an advantage to all levels of government because it will affect ten -per cent. of, the people in Canada. The Authority also appreciates the continued encourage- ment of Metropolitan Toronto and the constituent municipalities who, through their representatives, have guided our course. IV. SOME PROBLEMS Mr. Frederick G. Gardiner has suggested that the boundaries of Metropolitan Toronto should be extended from Steeles Avenue (the present limits) to the height of land between Lake Simcoe and Lake Ontario. This would increase the area of Metro from its present 210 square miles to 700 square miles. Mr. Gardiner gives many reasons why this should be done, but basically his argument is that a single government would be able to develop the larger region in an economical and orderly manner by planning proper subdivision of land, supply of sewers, water and roads. He says that Metro needs more land for natural population growth and any artificial barrier at Steeles Avenue would be wrong. Mr. Clark Muirhead, in reply to Mr. Gardiner, makes a case for containing Metro within its present limits. He points to large cities below the border, such as Los Angeles and New York, which have grown to the point where the quality of • living has deteriorated to a level very hard to improve. A -1.7 Mr. Muirhead suggests a plan which has often been advocated, the building of new cities, spaced across Ontario and planned from the ?ground up4. This idea is not new and has often been advocated. It has never been proven as completely -• obtainable and, in my view, would not solve the Metro problem. I believe that no matter how many new cities are created and no matter where the 'boundaries of Metro are ,finally placed, the Metro region will continue to grow in ,population and in industrial strength. By the Metr,d' region, I mean an area of somewhere in the neighbourhood of 1,000 square miles. So, rather than enter'into a political argument xrel.ative) to the precise boundaries of The Munibipality of Metropolitan. Toronto, I propose to discuss some of the problems, challenges and future developments of the Greater Metropolitan Region. (a) The Value of a Watershed Ideal The Metro Region has a number of small streams running through it which have, over the years, developed many beautiful valleys. The river valley system imposes some restraints and many advantages on a region. The rivers and their valleys compose a natural storm run -off system which must be considered, especially in times of flood. This feature has been studied by the Conservation Authority and a comprehensive plan conceived. Rising costs of land and construction have retarded the completion of the flood control plan. In order to contain the floods, river valleys must be kept open and, to avoid serious erosion and bank failures, valley slopes must be preserved. The preservation of the valleys has added many thousands of acres of parklands which would not otherwise be available to the people. Ways must be found to finish the flood control plan. This is an urgent objective. Another large flood will occur some day and, unless we are prepared, will cause great damage. -9- _(b') The Lakefront Plan One of the most imaginative schemes now before Metro is the plan to develop the lakefront from Oakville to Pickering. The Lake Ontario shoreline along Metro is one of the greatest natural assets possessed by any large city. It should provide an excellent harbour as well as ample recreational land on one of the largest fresh water lakes in the world. We have-the harbour, but have taken very little advantage of the natural assets for recreation. The ,waterfront plan as presently conceived offers a ,challenge for development second. to none. It' will provide the people of the greater Metropolitan area with parkland, marinas, swimming pools, playgrounds, scenic views with - beaches and miles of.pleasant walkways. The importance of the waterfront development goes far beyond the City of Toronto and the people near it. It has a provincial and a federal impact. As the front door of the provincial capital, it would set off the provincial parliament buildings and give suitable prestige and beauty to Ontario's capital city. Because of the harbour with its developments, it must also be a federal problem. Also, in a larger way, the lakefront development is part of a national problem. Isl. Pollution In speaking of Metropolitan Toronto, people often deplore the growing problems of pollution of air, water pollution, noise and transportation difficulties. However, the challenge is that Metro has not yet reached the point of 'no return'. Mrs. Jane Jacobs, well known urbanologist, in a recent television interview, said that, in her opinion, Metro Toronto is still a healthy city - one of the - healthiest on the North American continent. This should not make us complacent, because there are many things developing to bring about a deterioration of the living environment in Metro. -10- A -19 While we deplore many environmental conditions in a ,large city, most cities are infinitely, better places to live than they were a, century ago. It is probably true that London and Paris in 1$50, with open sewers, •diseases such as typhoid very common. and poverty so rampant that some people starved, were not.,des .rable for a large part of their populations. Mr. Robert Kaplan, M.P., in a recent address, stated that the big difference today is that ALL people know what proper living in a city should be and the people will not condone conditions that make living unhealthy, degraded and intolerable.. It has been the objectiveof the Authority to cooperate with all agencies to bring about -, pollution control and. environmental development to enhance the .- livingr enjoyment of all citizens. V. THE FUTURE You may wonder why the Chairman of a Conservation Authority should address himself to a survey of so many problems - open space, recreation, pollution of air and water, flood control, land use, noise abatement and many other things. The answer is that conservation - the New Conservation? is the science of control of human environment. Your Authority must now raise its sights to encompass the entire field of environmental enhancement and control. We have obtained and developed 20,000 acres of open space. We have worked on a flood control plan - which we must complete. We have planted millions of trees, worked toward water pollution control and proper use of land. We must continue these efforts. But also we must take part in a much larger scheme to include the elimination of air pollution, thoughtful beautification of our entire environment through such things as roadside plantings, encouragement of botanical gardens, development of the Bruce Trail, the Lake Ontario Waterfront, the Zoological Garden and many other things. A -20 -11- The time is ripe for action. The people are with us and they want these things. In my opinion the public expects from us intelligent and forward - looking action. G.

REPORT #3/70 - REFORESTATION & LAND USE ADVISORY BOARD Item #2 of Report #3/70 of the Reforestation and Land Use Advisory Board, as set forth herein, be adopted: Recommendation 2:7 in the Report of the Committee on Farm Assessment and Taxation - Ontario, which reads: 'Forest land be assessed on the basis of a soil capability schedule which reflects the value of land for forestry purposes as soon as such a schedule can be developed and that the resultant tax base be the maximum tax base for forest land. Implicit in all our recommendations respecting the assessment of farm land is the presumption that all property is assessed at market value. The Committee is aware that market value assessments for all properties in the Province may be as much as five years away. Until the assessments at market value are made it could be inequitable in the extreme to implement our recommendations respecting farm assess- ments if they served to raise farm assessments without corresponding increases in non -farm assessments. There are, however, a number of municipalities in which non -farm assessments are based on market value and the farm assessments on section 35(3) of The Assessment Act. It would be feasible to implement the assessment recommendations in such reassessed municipalities in 1970.' - be endorsed. 2.
