    Plan 2014 (High Lake Levels)

    "We are at the mercy of the weather" What is not clear nor explained well enough in the article below, is why the IJC is allowing the largest discharge from Lake Ontario which is a record for this time of the year. Don't get me wrong, I am for getting the lake level down fast in preparation...

    Plan 2014 (High Lake Levels)

    It easy to pick apart predictions once made and are on-going as is the case for the graph below. Came across a news article yesterday that made me post the graph and today more news outlets continue to repeat the same news, but no one is checking the accuracy of the news? I only say this...

    Plan 2014 (High Lake Levels)

    Cheer leaders, where are they. This is just one of the questions that go through my mind as I read the news articles on Lake Ontario. One thing that stands out is the lack of support for Plan 2014 prior to its implementation. I have found bits and pieces concerning the IJC held hearings...

    Plan 2014 (High Lake Levels)

    Written today from the Globe and Mail This article tends to lean more on the IJC's side but still needs to be seen, as it touches on most events last year during the floods.

    Plan 2014 (High Lake Levels)

    The gains and losses do not add up for Plan 2014. As I look out over the lake this morning admiring the steam fog over the lake, I cannot but think that with the recent snowfall that the IJC may blame this week's snow we received on next year's flooding. Hold on, they have already stated we...
