And based on the recommendations made by the Tetrahedron Local Resource Use Plan (LRUP) Water sub-committee, heads may indeed begin a series of dizzying rotations. Quite simply, the lengthy report, four years in the making, recommends the end of logging in the Tetrahedron area east of Gibsons and Sechelt. In addition, the report, tabled at a Jan. 25 LRUP meeting at the Sunshine Coast Forest District office, recommends \"logging operations cease in the Chapman and Gray Creek Watersheds\" which flow down from the Tetrahedron. Sub-committee chairman Chuck Weath- erill makes no bones about it; the entire watershed has to be protected. \"You have to have a _____ cheap and potable water supply and Chapman Creek is the best supply we've got. I'm not just talking about this (Tetrahedron); I'm talking about the whole nine yards.\" ��������� Weatherill said the Tetrahedron \"isn't the only forest in British Columbia\" and that the area's prime importance isn't the stands of highly valuable yellow cedar or its beauty. Its prime importance is the watershed that feeds water to the majority Watershed restoration must be now recognized as the primary goal' -Chuck Weatherill of the population of the Sunshine Coast. \"Exploitation of timber resources has compromised water quality, quantity and ___^_ timing of flows. \"Watershed restoration must be now recognized as the primary goal,\" the first recommendation in the Water sub-committee report ^tites. The water report ������������ includes a special report, written by scientist Dr. Erwin Diener, outlining potential hazards to the public water supply from timber harvesting. \"Logging in the Tetrahedron-Chapman- Gray Creek Watershed may impair the year-round sustained communal water sup- Sunshine Coast carpenters are asking the Sunshine Coast school board to hire construction workers locally rather than import people from Vancouver. Joel Johnstone pholo Locals ask for first crack at school construction by Darah Hansen Hire locally. That was the message delivered by the B.C. provincial council of carpenters to Sunshine Coast school board trustees Tuesday night. Gil Arnold, an organizer with the carpenters' union, appealed to the board, saying the economic advantages of localizing construction were \"identical to Ihe 'Shop Locally' campaigns undertaken by most of our communities.\" He asked the board to establish a policy that would ensure \"local preference in tendering\" in school district projects, tendered at several million dollars. Arnold further suggested Coast carpenters tout economic benefits of hiring at home instructing bidders to include the number of local worker hours, the quantity of local materials, services, and sub-contractors they intend to use when submitting a proposal. The board can indicate in its instructions that it intends to provide employment to \"bonafide local residents and businesses, and that the figures provided by the bidder, along wilh the proposed schedules and company track records, will be used by the board lo make its decision,\" he said. Outside the meeting, Arnold said he was not calling for a school board policy to hire only union workers. \"If you hire local, qualified carpenters, you will be hiring union.\" School board treasurer Tim Anderson said it was unlikely the cash-strapped education ministry would approve a \"hire- locally\" policy. Currently, Ihe district awards school projects to the lowest bidder. The only stipulation is the bidding company must be a \"qualified\" contractor and have a performance bond, providing solid financial backing, Anderson said. The board does suggest contractors hire from the local work pool but board members have no control on whether the suggestion is followed through, he said. Of the two school projects currently underway on Ihe coast, al Roberts Creek and Halfmoon Bay elementary schools, both companies are from Vancouver. But according to Anderson, the contractors have employed \"a fair amount of local work- ply and may aggravate the problems encountered by the lower Sunshine Coast Regional District concerning water quality,\" Diener says In his conclusion. Diener also agrees with the 1974 Chapman Creek Integrated Management Study Report in that \"these basins should be reserved for the use as watershed areas and any access to them be limited to recreational, non-vehicular use.\" \"An area of 2.5 miles has been clearcut in locations 7.5 miles above the mouth on a southeasterly facing side of the Chapman Valley. \"Considerable mass wastage has since degraded the water quality in the creek to a significant degree,\" he writes. turn to page 2 Sechelt chamber confronts economic challenges by Don Anderson If the Sunshine Coast is to compete with its neighbors in attracting tourists, economic redevelopment is a must. That was the message from Sechelt Mayor Earl Basse, in his address to Sechelt Chamber of Commerce members at the annual general meeting last Thursday. Economic development is \"sadly, sadly lacking,\" Basse said, adding that \"the chamber is the number one instrument\" in ensuring thai changes are made, to the vitality of the Coast, particularly Sechelt. Basse said the objectives of economic development must be identified by the various governments on the Coast. Of particular concern is the Sunshine Coast Regional District's economic development council, which he believes is faltering and requires restructuring. If the Sunshine Coast wants to capture tourism markets, the various governments must focus special attention on the state of its highways. \"The key to economic development is transportation,\" Basse said, \"and it's not just the ferries, it's the highways.\" Convincing the Ministry of Highways that an upgrade of the existing roads and the development of a second highway is necessary will be a chore, Basse said, but one that must be addressed immediately. \"We are the third-fastest growing community in Canada and we have to make sure they know that,\" he said, adding that the second \"highway must go up.\" The Chamber recently named Gordon L. Wilson to succeed Patrick Hobbs as president. Hobbs will stay on as a director. Like Basse, Wilson said economic development \"will be the focus\" of his term as president. Economic development is essential if local businesses are to be successful and the Sunshine Coast is going to become a tourist destination, he said. In his brief address to the chamber membership, Wilson outlined his plan for promoting economic development, which will include developing new products, expanding the business information centre to include counselling and financial programs, and furthering the promotion of the Coast. Tlie chamber recorded 1,306 business inquiries during the winter and summer of 1993. \"I see the benefit of maintaining a healthy tourism (component) on the Coast,\" he said. The chamber is continuing to work on a feasibility study to determine if a central organization can be established to operate the four tourist information centres on the Coast. ������������������������������������ M tit 1 Wit pj ft ��� ���.. -���* Maritime history society members breathe new life into �� old boat HALFMOON BAY: Enjoying the tranquil beauty of Sargent's Q Pigs pounded Into submission by Meralomas 4 A ,��\\f p Soccer leagues heading through jj winter Exposing erotic ]$ art ^m Coast News, lanuary 31, 1994 It's Trull!!

Sm 10-4 from page I The alteration of drainage patterns in the area, mostly due to logging roads and inadequate drainage, has created a \"proneness\" in the area for slope failure. During the rainy season of 1990-91, a major landslide occured \"due lo logging activities,\" Diener states. \"Nobody on the face of Ihe earth owes anyone a living,\" Weatherill said, referring to logging in the area during the Jan. 25 meeting. \"There is a cost for everything and it's time society got out of Disneyland and faced that,\" he said. Diener says in his special report that logging of old-growth forests would effectively remove a natural filtration system. \"Tree cover and the water-absorptive capacity of undisturbed, forest-covered soil protect from erosion, and hence siltation of the water supply at high rainfall intensities during the winter months.\" In addition, he says the thick forest canopy also acts as a relardant for the penetration of water into the soil \"at a rate lhat favours optimal retention and discourages flooding and runoff.\" 'Nobody on the face of the earth owes anyone a living' -Chuck Wmlhetill Without the forest acting as a filtration system, Weatherill said, the SCRD would be faced with the enormous cost of installing nitration systems and subscribers would be faced with \"$ 1,000- $ 1,500 surcharges a year\" to cover the cost of keeping them going. Health problems will also result if \"turbidity\" (clarity of water) problems persist and such problems are becoming more and more common in the province, the report notes. For example, it cites how boil water advisories have increased in the province from 20 in 1986 to 110 in 1992. After reviewing the 50-plus page report, LRUP chair and SCFD resource planning officer Barry Miller said, \"It is a very well written and researched report.\" The Chapman basin or bowl \"is vital to the retention of water. If we destroy that retention, we'll be in trouble,\" he said. The report also recommends that: Ihe Ministry of Forests' role be limited to \"the restoration and reclamation projects that will be necessary;\" the chief forester ensure that requirements for watershed protection are included in the Sunshine Coast Timber Supply Analysis; an alternative form of authority concerned with the watershed be formed; recreational activities in the area be limited and monitored; and the province should re-evaluate \"the assumption, inherent in the philosophy of integrated use, that logging in community watersheds is in the public interest.\" History of Tetrahedron debate highlighted When the water sub-committee handed ils report into the Tetrahedron Local Resource Use Plan (LRUP) core committee Jan. 25, it was seen as a major step in the long (four-year) process, set up to determine if the' Tetrahedron should become a protected area under the provincial Protected Areas Strategy.

A summary appears below \"The Tetrahedron Sludy Area has been the subject of a land use debate on the Sunshine Coast since the early '60s when the first of a number of park proposals for the area was submitted to the Ministry of Parks. The original park proposal was rejected, based on uncertainty regarding future allocation of Chapman Creek as the primary source of domestic water for the Sunshine Coast.\" In 1%8 another park proposal was submitted and in 1969 an evaluation of the Chapman Creek Watershed was commissioned to determine its capacity to provide potable water to Sunshine Coast residents ��� then numbering about 5,000. A water reserve was established on Chapman Creek in 1970 by the Sunshine Coast Regional District, establishing water provision as Chapman's primary use. In 1972 the SCRD \"outlined setting It straight concerns regarding a 1971 Foresl Service Engineering study\" in which Jackson Bros. Logging \"was compromising water quality within the Chapman drainage.\" ' In 1973 a special Chapman Creek meeling recommended the upper creek area be set aside as a watershed and access be limited to non-vehicular recreational use. The next year an Integrated Resource Management Study of the Chapman drainage concluded that past logging activities were \"primarily responsible for most water quality deterioration\" and that forest capability was low. In I97S Chapman Creek was designated a Section 12 Watershed Reserve for community water supply under the Land Act. In 1979, sediment problems were ongoing and another park proposal was submitted. In 1982, a Ministry of Forests hiking trail system was reserved around Tannis, Mayne, Bachelor, Edwards and Gilbert Lakes. \"It was subsequently abandoned when logging substantially altered the landscapes associated with the trail system,\" the history notes. In 1987 a wilderness recreation system was created, \"in the unlogged area that remained of the 1968 park proposal, by communily volunteers with donations from Ihe Ministry of Forests, industry, local businesses and a federal government grant.\" As a result of that, 35 kilometres of trails and four all-weather cabins accomodate about 3,000 people every year. In 1989, the origins of the LRUP process began with the Tetrahedron Wilderness Proposal submitted to the SCRD. In 1990 \"it became apparent that the concerns of the community, regarding wilderness designation, recreation and employment impacts would not be adequately addressed by the Integrated Watershed Management Plan,\" initiated the previous year, and in October 1990 the LRUP was initiated. As of Jan. 25, all sub-committee reports for the LRUP have been tabled and preparation of a final report is proceeding. In the Jan. 27 issue of the Coast News Weekender, environmentalist Terry Jacks was quoted as saying the pulp mills should stop using chlorine and chlorine-dioxide \"and stop burning ii.\" It was not clear in the article that Jacks comment referred lo the burning of toxic sludge left over from the secondary treatment of pulp mill effluents. Dioxins and furans, commonly produced as a by-product of Ihe chlorine bleaching process, among other chemicals, are often contained in the sludge. Chlorine and chlorine-dioxides are not burned directly. The Coast News regrets any inconvenience this may have caused.

Davit lay SSS-72SS _ mam Coast News, January 31, 1994 news MP's speech defines Reform Native policy The following is an excerpt from the maiden speech in the House of Commons of John Duncan, Member of Parliament for the riding of North Island-Powell River. Duncan, who is also the Reform Parly's spokesperson on Aboriginal affairs, also spoke of matters affecting this riding, including the Aboriginal Fishing Strategy (AFS). Within the riding we have a diversity of progressive Aboriginal groups with a living culture. The Sechelt Indian Band took the initiative to negotiate unique legislation to replace the Indian Act for their band alone and as a result they have been operating under a municipal-style model of self-government since 1986. The primary focus of my speech loday is Aboriginal affairs. As the Reform Party spokesperson for Aboriginal affairs, I want to discuss the current direction of federal policy in respect to Canada's indigenous peoples, with a BC perspective. British Columbia is in a unique situation with only IS existing treaties, including 14 on southern Vancouver Island and one in northeast BC. We have a predominantly non-treaty Aboriginal situation and a very significant portion of Ihe nation's Aboriginal population. In general there is a spirit of good will between the Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal populations. We all want Aboriginal people lo enjoy a standard of living and quality of life and opportunity equal to other Canadians. There is a consensus that a self-government model is essential to create a climate of certainty for investment and to bring together the population at large. The government has pledged to wind down the Department of Indian Affairs at a pace agreed upon by First Nations. There is a consensus that a wind-down is called for, replacing the current outmoded and outdated department with a system of accountability provided ,by self-government. Fpderally-chartered municipal Statuyitrreserves, such 'as the Sechelt arrangement, is a good way to go, giving the bands autonomy lo run their affairs. I believe it is time for some new points of view. Some recent federal initiatives have been divisive, not uniting and I would like to offer a new perspective. Native Fishing Strategy The Aboriginal Fishing Strategy of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) is one area that needs overhauling. The commercial fishing industry in BC, until 1992, was a colour-blind industry, wilh 30 per cenl Aboriginal participation. There is a long-standing Aboriginal food MP John Duncan fishery which is unaffected. The federal AFS policy implemented two years ago has created a separate Aboriginal commercial fishery based on race. This is a two-year pilot project with agreements under the AFS umbrella expiring March 31, 1994. Implementation of the AFS agreements has been very divisive within the industry and socially. Also, it has not been con- ducive to conservation management. In 1993 several BC Court of Appeal decisions served to reject the necessity of a separate Aboriginal commercial fish- _^__ ery. The promised DFO review...this spring must be carried out with transparency and sensitivity to the conflicts that Ihe agreements have created. We recommend avoidance of Ihis conflict and new direction for our important fishery by orienting AFS to the recreational fishery and lo fisheries enhancement. No new commercial fishing agreements should be negotiated under the AFS umbrella. Self-government There has been a great deal of recent discussion about the terminology \"inherent right to self- government.\" According to my understanding, the term \"inherent\" can mean that federal and provincial legislation would not apply to Aboriginal people without their agreement. 1 alyo understand that it could be the basis for claims to international sovereignty, which could signal Aboriginal government _____ immunity from all federal and provincial laws. This is unacceptable to most Canadians. , We believe that Aboriginal self-government means a mix of federal, provincial and Aboriginal laws to be worked out through negotiations. Regardless of the framework, it must work within the structure of Canadian society as a whole. Land claims British Columbia residents want to resolve the issue of unsettled land claims so that investment climate is improved and so that individuals, business, government and Aboriginal groups can go forward with certainty. The recently formed trilat- / believe it is time for some new points of view -John Duncan eral BC Treaty Commission (fed- eral/provincial/First Nations) is up and running, having already received 38 proposals from bands in BC. The commissions will be a positive influence on negotiations, bul there are major shortcomings. To overcome these shortcomings, I have recommendations related to interim measures, third-party interests and transparency. Recent resource-related interim measures negotiated between the province and Aboriginal ���groups are eroding federal Aboriginal jurisdiction and the urgency of Ihe negotiating process. It is in the federal government's interest to question the mandate of the province's negotiation of these interim agreements without federal participation. ��� Third-party interests are not at the negotiating table. Philosophical objection to having them at the table is unfounded as they also want to remove the current impasse. By involving third parties at the front end, the process could be expedited rather than delayed. The whole question of government mandate would be much more clear if third parties were represented. This means third parties would be in attendance but would not have decision-making authority. Third parties would tend to keep the decisions on track and moving forward. This initiative is a bold step for the current players but it is an essential step in order to build consensus. In terms of transparency, the population at large is increasingly suspicious of the entire negotiating process. The current situation involves third parties only in a consultative process and not at the negotiation table. By having third parties present, much of this concern would be alleviated and the public interest would be better served. It is well known that both levels of government are in a fiduciary relationship with the Aboriginal population. Philosophically I question, and a body of legal opinion suggests, that because of the fiduciary relationship, the federal and provincial governments are in a \"conflict of interest\" in negotiations with the First Nations unless third parties are at the table. Litigation is the likely result of current third party involvement In conclusion...! am calling for new directions regarding Aboriginal affairs. British Columbians want to end the climate of uncertainty, secrecy, and divisiveness. This requires adoption of the measures I have outlined. Success in BC suggests that the same recommended approaches will work in other provincial jurisdictions as well. Federal housing renovation program revived The federal government will provide $100 million over the next two years in the form of loans or grants for home renovation to low-income Canadians, including Aboriginals, to bring iheir houses up to health and safely standards and to assist Ihose in rural and remote areas to deal wilh emergency repairs. \"This is in keeping with the government's pledge to reinstate the Homeowner and Disabled Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Programs (RRAP),\" said David Dingwall, the federal minister responsible for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corpora tion. \"Not only will this improve housing and living conditions of low-income Canadians, but thousands of badly-needed jobs will be created, directly and indirectly.\" Dingwall also urged the provinces to consider \"partnership arrangements\" to finance the program. \"Provincial and territorial participation would increase the number of homeowners who would receive subsidies and further create jobs.\" Dingwall said he expects tr have the program operating \"in a matter of a few weeks.\" t& SUNSHINE COAST HOME SUPPORT SOCIETY CAREGIVERS Do you need a break from constant care of a family member?

Basse's support of improved roadways and Ihe development of Block 7 near Trail Bay Mall is no more logical than chamber president-elect Gordon L. Wilson's decision to push for increased tourism promotion on the Coast. It's time to make Block 7 the centre of Sechelt, Basse said, and whether it will be via development of recreational amenities, a library, tourisi-relaled or public service buildings, it is up to the communily to decide. If economic development and diversification is the future of Sechelt, the inclusion of a combined police station/municipal hall on Block 7 may not be the route to go. There is a certain need for a station and municipal hall in downtown Sechelt but it is certainly nol something that will attract the tourists. Tourism, after all, is the number one industry in the world and number two in B.C., marginally behind forestry. Aside from a lack of economic development, the most significant obstacle facing Ihe Coasl, and its numerous businesses, is its/their relative anonymity in respect to the rest of the province. Apparently, there is little being done to promote this area effectively and encourage tourists lo choose the Sunshine Coast over trips to the Okanagan Valley or Whistler. One solution may be to join forces with the proponents of Ihe promotion of the Circle Tour from Vancouver to Lillooet. Granted, the Coast will never be a winter destination like many of its competitors, but with enough planning and promotion of existing and future amenities ��� like the proposed ferry to ferry bike path ��� it may become a three-season destination running from spring to fall. It will be up to the residents of this waterfront community to decide if they want to see more tourists plugging up their highways and storefronts. With economic development comes the obvious need to change or alter priorities. The question remains whether this community is prepared for or has the courage to accept change. Has anyone seen a robin yet? Ah, lord, the sun's out again, and the air has that little extra nectar-like heaviness to it, the heaviness that makes everything and everybody seem to move by just a little bit slower. Already, the buds that have peeked out prematurely, heedless of the mild chill, seem to be poised to make a grow of it. And there are stirrings and rustlings in the trees and forests that were previously chilled into silence. This is the time of year that those who toil outdoors have the advantage. Sunshine lightens even the heaviest tasks. For those who work indoors, however, weather like this makes the business of business so difficult. No matter how conscientious the employer or employee, the weather beckons so seductively. Even when they resist the temptation, though, the sun still has its way with them; it leaves them heavy-lidded and sluggish.

His plan is to run a path between the two towns on lands situated underneath hydro lines.\" A word to Mr. Tkachuk. Much of the land underneath the hydro lien is privately owned. Property owners might not appreciate strangers, bikes, dirt bikes, ATVs, horses, hunters, et al, trekking through their property. Perhaps you should consult with these owners before your plan is finalized. Have you told BC Hydro oj this planned (raffle trespass on their right-of-way?

Now 1 call that a pretty good solution; at least it is from my point of view. t Thank you. GORD PEATTIE Gibsons Tree ring argument a circular dispute Thanks to James R. Thomson. His letter of Jan. 17 made some accurate corrections lo a recent article on the Caren Range old growth, but it still did not bring out the main point. Mr. Thomson spotted the article's misprint about counting \"10 rings in one centimetre.\" Expert Marion Parker (not Porter) did use a microscope to count rings, because the old cedar's average ring is fingernail thickness, 0.53 centimetre. The slow-growing trees of the Caren often pack 100 rings into one inch of wood. Mr. Thomson also pointed out quite rightly that there are older trees in southwestern US than those on the Caren Range. As it happens, our local Mr. Parker worked on that Bristlecone Pine project with Drs. Shulman ad Ferguson, helping build a den- drochronological record which goes back over 8,000 yeans. However, to tlie friends of our remaining old growth, knowing those southern trees are over 4,000 years old doesn't lessen the significance of an 1,800-year-old tree in Canada There is a lot that our ancient trees can give us, scientifically, economically, emotionally. The important point is: when we find an 1,800-year-old stump it means they're cutting 1,800-year-old trees.

Well, at least it might be if you had no imagination and nerves of steel. Perhaps Quayle's most memorable moment before he was consigned to the left-luggage office of political history came when he emerged briefly from the dwindling shadow of George Bush during the last American presidential election to speak up in ringing tones, well perhaps tinkling tones is more fitting for Dan the Quayle, in praise of the American family. Fearlessly, this paragon of virtue denounced Murphy Brown, a television character who had borne an offspring without noticeable presence on the scene of the offspring's sire. Here was an issue that this Republican toy bull dog could get his teeth into and worry savagely. Nailing his colours to the mast. Captain Quayle went to war on behalf of motherhood, fatherhood and apple pie. What a devastating effect Murphy Brown's fatherless offspring was going to have on the moral fibre of the American people. Never mind that legions of single-parent fami- musings lies in America existed before Murphy's momentous decision to become a mother. Never mind that most observers and commentators see the collapse of conventional family set-ups in the United States of America to be the result of social decay, not the . cause of it. Issues such as social justice and economic democracy are too complex for Danny Boy to wrap his straightshooter's little mind around. It is intellectual bankruptcy and real spiritual exhaustion which sends politicians groping in the linen closet for a comfortable moral towel to wipe the soap of daily challenges from their sensitive eyes. When you run out of ideas, preach morality. Worn out administrations are never original. All that they have left vibrant within the burnt-oul husk of their political philosophy is the will to power. lt should be no surprise, therefore, to see another aging administration pick up Danny's unsuccessful clarion call; nail, in the absence of any coherent ideas, the same tattered morality colours John burnside to the masthead where their policy should hang. Early last fall Prime Minister John Major had limped through a disastrous year. Surrounded by cabinet ministers still fiercely loyal to the deposed Thatcher, trapped in a suit of sober decency which did little to replace the Iron Lady in the affections of the English Tory, prone to misstep and mispro- nouncements, Major faced a Conservative convention in September which most knowlegeable commentators confidently predicted would be an absolute blood bath. Ah, but no! Johnny Boy stole a leaf from Danny Boy's book. Major announced a \"back to basics' campaign which was going to put England back on her feet Yes, good old family values were going to do the trick. Down with welfare cheats and single mothers and all Ihose other dastards who were causing social chaos. Encouraged by their leader's clutching for some kind of respectability, the dinosaurs paraded. Chief among them was Home Secretary Michael Howard, a balding, bespectacled, deranged intensity of a man one could imagine conducting medical experiments in a Nazi concentration camp. He is one of the aspiring leaders of the Tory Blue. Man, was he fearless in his condemnation of single mothers. They were, he asserted, breeders of criminals. He was for law and order. He would build more prisons ��� there is already a higher percentage of people in prison in England than in any other country in Europe without noticeable lowering of criminality ��� and he was going to push for changes so that teenage girls wouldn't get pregnant just for the heaven-sent privilege of getting a government housing project flat He meant business, by God. I hope your skepticism is polished because by this time you should be getting ready for the pratfall. A junior married minister in the environment department has just been forced to resign by his true-blue constituency because it has been revealed that at about the same time his colleagues were exploding with moralistic fervour at convention, this minister's mistress, an unmarried lady, was giving birth to his child. It was the second child fathered out of wedlock by this representative of Tory moral zeal. Now, poor old Major is making the rounds of TV talk shows explaining what he did and did not mean by 'back to basics.' May there ever be a ready trip-wire for such political hypocrisy and expediency.

How different, and how significant we might ask. Our attitudes across the longest undefended border have actually been from the start at least ambiguous. We have been at war, which we won with a little help from our friends; but we have been unquestioningly at peace ever since; and meanwhile our two vast sea-to-sea expanses of the planet have developed side by side in apparently full friendly accord, yet in many ways quite differently, and this is not at all the way things have gone elsewhere in our world. But how much of the different ways we have grown is really appreciated on either side the border can still be a question, and Ihe president's annual Sate of the Union address, and the debates about it that follow almost indecently fast upon it on television, can be perhaps the best single event through which to get a slant on what they are up to, or at least what their government would like to be up to. So, as expected of course, it was an all-inclusive health plan, improved welfare, maintenance of the world's most powerful in a nutshell armed forces, and a tougher stance to crime in the streets, and not necessarily in that order. In fact a clear attempt was made not to have these elements in any order at all. They were all needed in 1994 and they were critically needed now. Outside of the armed forces (we aim I think at the 'most efficient') these are all problems that we also certainly have on our plate, though many Americans seems to believe that, like the British before us, we have had national health licked since the early '60s. What we know, and what the British certainly know, is that it takes more than an Act of Parliament; it takes paying for. President Clinton, who had been strongly affirming that in his term only the top 1.2 percent of Americans had been asked to pay higher taxes, did mention in relation to paying for the health plan that people who smoked cigarettes should be prepared to 'pay for it,', stuart nutter but we, with far the highest tobacco taxes in the world, are nonetheless seeing hospitals close. Was anything really surprising then? It was, I thought, a remarkably good speech, strong and confident and clear and persuasive; but it did occur to me that I, for one, was simply going to have to take his figures, telling and significant as they were , as for real. This the more so perhaps as he many times interjected \"And this is the truth\". Immediately following the speech, though, on came the leader of the opposition, Senator Dole, with an obviously pre- filmed rebuttal (well, we had just seen him a minute before sitting in his place in the Capitol, and deciding when he and his mates might join in the applause). Dole had a big elaborate flow chart behind him and spent most of his considerable allowed time flatly denying most of the president's figures and I thought this a bit odd. I mean, didn't these people really know what the facts were? Then, of course, as the night wore on and there were interviews with senior senators, bona fide analysts, think tank cushies, ex-advisors to ex-presidents etc., these same figures were again challenged over and over again, and not necessarily from Senator Dole's point of view. Nobody as far as 1 recall actually called anybody else a liar; it just seemed taken for granted that 'fact' today is not necessarily as defined in the dictionary. ,', The image that emerged was of a country which puts its faith, more than perhaps any other, in statistics, but where no one believes in anybody else's figures. Well, we have our own 'creative' accountants. Generally the mood at the end seemed quite genuinely upbeat despite the truly distressing dimensions of the domestic problems he has to try to do something about. Correspondents who seem to find it embarrassing to say anything good about an incumbent government were saying that he was much stronger than he had been at the start (meaning then they had thought he had been at the start). Unfortunately he is certainly going to have to be, and on the basis of his program I think we can only follow his progress from the view up here and cheer him on. letters Rockwood thanks We would like to take this opportunity to lhank all those members of the community who supported Rockwood Society's position to maintain an artistic, cultural and educational facility in Sechelt. Plans are being made for the expansion of Rockwood's facilities on adjacent property purchased by the Rockwood Society with, the gracious assistance of Spani Developments. Rockwood Centre is Well dn its way to expanding the facilities currently used for the Festival of the Written Ails, the Story Telling Festival, the Children's Fair, the Healing Arts Fair, Light the Lights, Soundworks and the many and varied courses and programs offered al the centre. The Rockwood Lodge Society Board would also like to acknowledge the growing number of volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to making Rockwood's programs a success. DAVE ALLEN, President Suncoast Rockwood Lodge Society Aiding volunteers As the government continues to search for budgets to cut, there is no doubt that the foreign aid allocation is a tempting target. In the lighl of the upcoming foreign policy review members of the international voluntary sector, also called the NGO community, welcome a review of Canada's aid programs and priorities. After 25 years of top-down planning by governments and United Nations Organizations, it is painfully clear that most of the funds official paid out for development stay near the top. In spite of this, there have been some striking accomplishments in human developmeni including longer life, improved health and more access lo education. Indeed, it would be a tragedy al this important socio-economic and political juncture, if foreign aid were seriously curtailed. Going Away on Vacation? Your Secret's Safe With Us.

Voluntary organizations staffed by their own nationals have now achieved a significant place in most developing countries, thanks to the support of Canadians. Canadian voluntary organizations with the support of thousands of Canadians have established links with grass roots organizations and village people in developing countries throughout the world. This has been done with a great deal of help from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). .

Owned and maintained at considerable cost by Chevron Canada, we are extremely fortunate to have it at our disposal. It provides a meeting place for local people as well as visitors, is the hub of the Brookman Fishing Derby held every August, the home of the polar ..bear swim and is a safe haven in a storm to tugboats and pleasure craft alike. Generations of kids have swum off the dock and many a summer romance has blossomed along those railings. A few years ago you could always net a crab for dinner by simply anchoring your trap to a piling. Scuba divers like to use it as a guide in their search for sunken treasure such as Ashing rods, buzz bombs and crab traps. I even hooked a deck chair one day. The dock attracts tourists from all over the Sunshine Coast and indeed, there are scores of people who vacation in Davis Bay every year so they can fish off the dock and not have lo go out in a boat. On a warm summer night you are apt to meet people on the dock from all over Canada and the US and always they remark on how lucky we are to have such a friendly place to meet people. A lot of activity revolves around this favourite place and we owe Chevron a great deal of thanks for making this available to us. 1 am looking for some history on the beginnings of the dock, so if you can help please give me a call.

Perhaps next time the Lions can reach their goal of $500 to bring back into the community or realize that Pender Harbour is not interested. It's up to all of you. Here is a condensed list of what was needed and spent last year: Locally: bursaries $500; T. Telethon, $400; Elves Club $200; Sen. Cit. Housing $1,000; Serendipity $50; Elementary School trip, $180; Girl Guides $50; Make-a-wish $190, etc. etc. They sponsored the Scouts, Cubs and Beavers. The keep up, repair, replace, add lo and rebuild the Lions Community Park ��� your park ��� to an annual worth of at least $5,000. Last year was over $15,000. On the international scene which benefits somehow all of us, the following donations were made: CNIB $250; CARE $200; LC1F $200; Youth Exchange $100; Sight $100 and Hearing $400. I'm sure each and every one of you can put a circle around one of the above figures and say: \"Yes, 1 or my family, benefitted from that.\" So, let them know what you think in your letter and I'm sure they won't mind if they find the odd one with a donation. by Maureen Parrott, 883-2434 The land mass of Egmont probably rose a bit this week (as did our coefficient of beauty) as old vehicles were pulled from woods and driveways, crushed by a front-end loader, and trucked away on flaldecks. About 50 carcasses went out in four lo:pls. Thanks to Verne Bullock, Kerry Vaughan, Richmond Recycling and all who helped to recycle this old material inlo new resources. Tremors More substantial earth movements affected John Griffith at his winter computer job near LA. The earthquake knocked over his guitar stand and broke some dishes, but did him no real harm. The week before, John mentioned a series of minor quakes, only one of which he felt. The vibration and low rumble were \"exactly like riding the carriage down the (marine) ways.\" Lynn Mees' mother in Palm Springs felt the big quake distantly. For a moment it was like being out on the boat. News blues E2, phone home! Rural viewers are pining for the Canadian satellite which wandered off into space a couple of weeks ago.

Some people can receive Channel 6 or 12 broadcasts in good weather, but that did little to console viewers whose favourite programs had disappeared or moved.

BCAA Senior Public Affairs Officer Palti Bacchus says BCAA will donate a BCAA family membership to each secondary school holding a dry grad celebration that is attended by at least 50 percent of the school's graduating students. \"In the last couple of years we've been hearing about student groups holding alcohol-free graduation celebrations. These celebrations can go on all night long and include lots of entertainment and fun without alcohol or drugs. BCAA hopes this trend will continue to catch on throughout the province,\" says Bacchus. To receive a BCAA membership which can be used as a door prize at the celebration, students must submit their dry-grad plans to BCAA by April 15, 1994 by writing to BCAA Dry Grad, c/o Public Affairs, 4567 Canada Way, Burnaby, BC V5G4TI. Dry grad plans must include names and phone numbers of dry grad committee members, date and location of event and a list of event activities. \"Wouldn't it be great if we never read another news report about a car crash involving alcohol, high school students, injuries and deaths?\" said Bacchus. Last year, 101 schools responded to BCAA's Dry Grad Challenge. ir you have to walk your pet in the rain, there are few places prettier than Sarcents Bay Provincial Park. ioel Johnstone photo hallmoon happenings by Ruth Forrester, 885-2418 There is still a real need for volunteers to cover the Halfmoon Bay area in the annual fundraising event for the Heart Foundation. If you have some time to spare for this good cause, please call Fay al 885- 3575 or Marly at 885-2229.

Come along and get together with this hard-working group who help make life more pleasant for patients in our hospital. There can't be too many members, so if you still haven't joined, this will be a good opportunity to find out what it's all aboul. At school Things have nol improved regarding the running dogs situation at Halfmoon Bay school. Just last week one little fellow slipped on dog mess in Ihe school yard and his clothing was in such a disgusting state that the staff had lo go through the lost and found box to get him a change of clothing. It would seem lhat tasks like this are above and beyond Ihe duties of school teachers, but if the need arises ihey have to do what Ihey can to help Ihe child. It would help even more if dog owners would keep their animals at home and not leave Ihem lo wander about and annoy other people. But this is something that goes on and on and nothing gets done about it. The Halfmoon Bay school recently received a grant towards the drug and alcohol program. The money will be spent towards hiring of speakers who are experts on this subject who will address the students and hopefully get their message across.

Gas prices Have you noticed the price of gas has started to slowly creep up again, or are we not supposed to be aware of such lac- tics. It was brought down to a more realistic 50.9 per litre and we were reasonably satisfied with Ihis. Now it is 51.9, while one can still nil up the tank for 47.9 at Squamish and 49.9 in Vancouver. There is still no reasonable explanation for being , thus penalized for living on Ihe Sunshine Coast.

A recent announcement by Coast Cable Vision Ltd. details the arrival of fibre-optics ��� a much more advanced system of signal sending and receiving ��� to Ihe Coast. \"During January, 1994, fibre-optic cable will be installed from antenna site located at Davis Bay and ending at Hopkins Landing. Specially trained crews from BC Tel will place 26.9 kilometres of cable to service seven distribution hubs along the route,\" said Coast Cable district manager Kenneth Hughes. Work on this phase of fibre-optic installation is expected to end in April and the second phase, running to Halfmoon Bay, will be completed next year. The fibre-optic cable will replace Coast Cable's coaxial cable system. Some of the benefits of the installation of a fibre-optic network are an increase in channel capacity along wilh better quality of reception thanks to fewer amplifiers, less interference, smaller areas experiencing signal outages and, as well, fewer outages. While crews install the fibre-optic system, cable subscribers will experience temporary interruptions of service. 'Five hundred channels is not unrealistic' -Kenneth Hughs \"It's unavoidable because we have to disconnect the signals to the homes,\" he said. Most interruptions will be Iwo to three minutes although some may stretch to IO or IS minutes. In addition to quality, the fibre-optic system will increase system capacity, Hughes said. \"Five hundred channels is not unrealistic,\" he said. In the near future, this will allow cable customers to receive a pay-per-view system where the same movie will begin every six minutes, thereby making pay-per-view more convenient for subscribers. Also, fibre-optics will allow a file server system to be implemented and \"the electronic highway will also come.\" Thanks to the fibre-optics, subscribers' home computers can be connected \"to the world,\" Hughes said. Coast Cable also plans to install a cable to Elphinstone Secondary School \"which will facilitate the carriage of live and taped community programing for the studio at the school.\" The cost of installing the fibre-optic system will be about $660,000 and will be added to Coast Cable's capital expenditures. If a capital expenditure is used for the upgrading of services, costs may be taken up by increased cable fees, as approved by the Canadian Radio-Televison and Communications Convnission. Hughes noted that other capital expenditures, not part of increasing services, aren't used for bill increases. Cable subscribers bills went up 14 cents a month on /an. 1.

Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs) Td figure out how much you can contribute to a 1993 RRSP, there are different guidelines for members and non-members of Registered Pension and Deferred Profit Sharing Plans.

Joel Johnstone photo Pigs pushed off pedestal of perfection by Ian Cobb Even Pigs get full sometime. The Gibsons Pigs Rugby Club of the Vancouver Rugby Union re-discovered what il's like to lose Jan. 22 at Connaught Park in Vancouver. Buoyed by having to lose a game to the Pigs by default a few weeks earlier and by some late player additions, the Meralomas Rugby Club trounced the Sunshine Coast side 23-7. \"This should be a good wake-up call for us. We should probably do better now we've lost one,\" said Pigs spokesman Ray Dow following the defeat. The team was getting a little too comfortable on the field, expecting victory, he said. The defeat should remind team members that it takes eveiy game to be as successful as they have been this season and the latter part of last season. Counting the Pigs 13-game winning streak dating back to the start of this season, a December exhibition win over the Powell River Otagos and four wins in a row at the end of last season, the Pigs' winning streak was halted at 18 games. The Meralomas opened up an 11-0 lead by half time, thanks to two three-point penalty kicks and an unconverted try. They continued to chase the ungreased Pigs into the second half and jumped inlo an 18-0 lead when a Meralomas defender intercepted a Pigs toss and scampered down field unhindered for a try. After getting a wake-up call with IS minutes remaining, the Pigs managed to dig down and show why they're atop the VRU with a 13-win, one-loss record. Displaying good support and pursuit, the Pigs got the ball to Slu Frizzell who made into the Meralomas end zone for a try. Kicker Dave Strom made the kick to pull the Pigs within 11. However, destiny meant for the Meralomas to knock the Pigs off their pedestal and they hung on for the 23-7 win. \"We had our chances but we just didn't capitalize like we normally do,\" Dow said. The Meralomas \"fielded the best team we've seen in years\" for the contest, Dow said. However, he added that if the Pigs played like they can, they could still knock the Vancouver side off. In spite of the defeat, the Pigs are still atop the VSU standings, one win ahead of the 12-1 Capilanos and well up on the 8-5 Kats. And it will be a battle of first and third Saturday at 11:30 a.m. behind Langdale Elementary School when the Kats hop the Sound. The Pigs regular home field behind Elphinstone Secondary School is temporarily closed while the field is being re-seeded.

Over those years we've watched the world change around us while we've remained steady as a rock, providing a safe, reliable institution for your advertising dollar. The first issue of the Coast News rolled off the presses on July 11, 1945, providing in-depth coverage for the Coast's little more than 500 residents. Today, we're still covering the Coast for its 25,000-plus residents, faithfully marking the passage of every week in history. Life is too variable to predict what the next 50 years will hold, but with your support the constant will be the COAST^NEWS Trumpeting return of Classic tourney The Elphinstone Secondary School basketball programs may be in limbo right now as students write their provincial exams, but action will resume with gusto Feb. 11, when the annual Elphinstone Classic Tournament starts. A total of 16 junior and senior boys teams from the Lower Mainland, North Shore and Pemberton will converge on the Sunshine Coast for a two- day tourney to be held at Elphinstone and at Chatalech Secondary School in Sechelt. Sporting a 10-win and three- loss record heading into the tourney, the Elphinstone Cougars senior team stands a good chance of playing the greedy host by winning its own classic. \"I'm pretty sure we'll get to the finals,\" mused Cougars coach Bill Sluis, veering into Dallas Cowboys' coach Jimmy Johnson���confidence���country, but Sluis, bum shoulder and all, steered back inlo the straight and narrow and added, \"But you never know.\" One thing is for sure and was so declared with absolute confidence by the coach ��� the quality of basketball lo be played at the tourney will be more than worthy of watching. \"You'll be surprised if you come out to see them; they're a good bunch of players.\" The first game of the tourney features the junior Cougars, currently playing it about .500, when they take on Howe Sound at 9 am Friday, Feb. 11 at Elphinstone. The senior Cougars take to the court next with a match-up against Collingwood. There is no charge lo get in to cheer on your local teams, which also include the Chatalech junior and senior Eagles and Pender Harbour Secondary School junior Sakinaws. Eagles eat salmon but falter against Cougars The Chatalech Secondary School Grade 8 Eagles boys' basketball team has found something its members don't want to keep. \"We seem to have a knack of losing leads in the last few minutes of the game,\" said coach Dave Diether. The Grade 8 Eagles, considered a training/proving ground for junior and senior programs, have lost to their counterparts al Elphinstone Secondary School (Cougars) four times Ihis year. However, the point margin is only about 14 points in the Cougars' favour. The squad lost lo the Cougars by four points Jan. 26 and before then, it lost a game by a single poinl. All those losing points have come courtesy of late-game rallies by the Cougars. The only other game the Eagles have played so far Ihis season was against Pender Harbour Secondary School Sakinaws. However, the Fighting Salmon weren't in much of a fighting mood and the Eagles scooped them from the water and ate Ihem to the tune of 23 points. \"We've got lots of players out and we've got some tall players,\" Diether said. \"We're playing as many of the kids as often as we can so we can get them ready for juniors and seniors. In seniors action, the Chatalech Eagles dropped another contest to the powerful Cougars squad last week. This time, however, the winning margin was about 50 points for the Cougars. \"They have a pretty strong team this year,\" Diether assessed. Happy Birthday, TERRY my favourite Aquarius bud.

Both musicians have long and storied pasts. If Coast residents can remember a show at Roberts Creek Hall in 1992, featuring the band Gypsalero, then they'll remember Dun- away. \"He's a diversely talented musician,\" said cafe co-owner Mark Safioles who, along with partner Natasha Gellatly, is trying to make the music night at the Roberts Creek Road location a monthly event. A West Coaster, Dunaway has also played with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, the Tommy Banks Orchestra and Vancouver Ensemble of Jazz. He has also been across the boards playing with the likes of blues legend John Lee Hooker, Steven Fearing, the Waterpoets and Joe Henderson. Mah, originally from Ottawa, has recorded several recitals for CBC Radio and has produced five cassettes. The immensely talented guitarist has also studied in Spain under Jose Tomas, himself a student of the late, great Andres Segovia. Both musicians are recipients of numerous awards. 'This promises to be an exciting concert,\" Safioles said. The first set, scheduled to begin about 7:30 p.m., will be mostly classical pieces and as the evening progresses, jazz numbers will appear. A casual dinner will be served from 5 to 6:30 p.m. before the show. Tickets are $8 and seating is limited. Visual delight The Sunshine Coast Arts Centre In Sechelt Is currently showing the photographic collage of Bob Sherrln. Bob Sherrin photo Unfinished work completes string quartet by Allan Crane They're coming from New York Feb. 8. Alexander Korcha- gin's bringing his wife, Tatiana Zhelegnikova. He's the Shostakovich String Quartet's cellist. (She's a pianist in her own right.) The quartet is here to play two concerts and enjoy Sunshine Coast hospitality, the musicians will stay with local families for three days. Their first concert will be at the Pender Harbour Community Centre at 1:30 pm Wednesday, Feb. 9. The second is at the Twilight Theatre Feb. 10,7:30 pm. Alexander Korchagin (cello), Andrei Shislov (violin) and Alexander Galkovsky (viola)' were all born in Moscow. Violinist Sergei Pishchugin was born in Tchilla, East Siberia. As a child he moved to Moscow where one of his teachers was the legendary Russian violinist David Oistrakh. All of the players are graduates of Moscow Conservatory. The quartet has more than 40 LPs and CDs to its credit. The Sunshine Coast is in for a rare treat with the two performances here. Music of the Romantic period is tellingly represented by Brahms' (1833- 1897) Quartet No. 2. Many local music lovers will know this superb masterpiece. None are likely to know Rach- maninov's (1873-1943) unfin-_ ished string quartets, only discovered after his death. We will hear the second of these. The program will be completed in a more contemporary Vein by Shostakovich's (1906-1975) Quarter No. 12. Tickets are available at bookstores in Gibsons and Sechelt ���and from the Roberts Creek General Store. For the Pender Harbour conceit only, tickets are at Miss Sunny's Hair Boutique. The newly formed Coast Recital Society (CRS) is presenting these concerts. Future CRS activities include a series of three, spring concerts following the conclusion of Countryside Concerts' current series. More information will be available, shortly. Roberts Creek offers fair cure for winter blues Roberts Creek residents know how to blow the mid-winter blues away. For the fourth consecutive year, residents of that out-of- the-way yet rarely overlooked community will host the Roberts Creek Blues Fair Feb. 6. According to organizer Jeanelle Moen, the fair has nothing with the musical style of blues which some people may be led to believe judging by the name of Ihe annual event. \"Winter blues means the 'blues-dom' that you feel during the winter,\" explained Moen. \"So, il has absolutely nothing to do with the music.\" What il does have to do with is an elaborate setup of craft tables and \"exquisite meals,\" Moen said, in addition to performances by a plethora of local musicians _______ and entertainers. This year's fair will include the talents of 11 performers, including Larry Wahl, the Hot Winter blues means the \"blues-dom' that you feel during the winter -Jeanelle Moen Potatoes, Clark Steabner, Silver Dagger, Straight from the Kitchen, Richard Price, Jane and , - Boyd, and the Piglets of Joy. Gordo the Clown will be on hand for children. Moen said it is the most extravagant list of performers assembled to date, which will complement the variety of jams and jellies, larot card readings, crafts, woodwork and jewelry offered at the fair. \"An exquisite arrangement\" of East African foods is planned, she said, courtesy of Anar Kanji. The fair has become an annual fundraiser for the Roberts Creek Hall Restoration Committee. Moen would like to raise $500 to be put toward any necessary spring repairs and maintenance of the hall. The festivities run from 10 am to 3 pm. Admission is $1 for adults while children are admitted free of charge.

Alice, 8882769 09 Gibsons' Quay Works Gallery offers peek at local erotic art by Dun Anderson There's nothing shocking aboul Erotica, a 23-piece display of erotic art currently showing at the Quay Works Gallery in Gibsons. At least that is the opinion of artist Donna Balma, co-juror of some 45 pieces of art submitted lo the gallery in preparation for Ihe month-long show. \"It's hopelessly heterosexual,\" Balma said. \"We didn't get anything from Ihe other sexual persuasions. \"I've been in the art world for many years now and I've seen shocking...To my mind, there is nothing thai is outrageously shocking (in this show).\" Balma and fellow artist Maurice Spira selected what they believe is the best interpretation of erotic art by Sunshine Coast and Lower Mainland artists. Works submitted covered virtually all media, including sculptures made from wood and Plexiglass, black and white photographs, pencil drawings and acrylic paintings. \"Some (submissions) we found incredibly banal and trite and others we found that people had imaginatively expressed the theme of the show,\" Balma said, prior to Saturday's show opening. North Vancouver artist Leo Peterka has submitted two wood sculptures, while local artist Roger Handling's slightly eclectic painting/sculpture of a naked form managed to capture the appreciation of the jurors and Quay Works co-owner Lionel Trudel. Other works accepted into the show include Elizabeth Simpson's acrylic painting entitled \"Evolution,\" a tapestry on natural fibres courtesy of Lois Kennedy, and a 15-second tape recording involving some form ^jjjj^ > ^Uli ____$<'''��* ____% Bw 'Jfnpm !��� A tai.-'' i '���' ;4ts? 0 ^f ^__ A- *\"^B #~\\m t \" '\"' *^m\\ f; <*��� C' * et.

Balma and Trudel would not offer detailed descriptions of the recording prior to Ihe show's opening, preferring to leave il up to gallery gazers to discover it themselves. \"The experience is within the experience,\" Trudel said. Despite initial fears that the show would spawn criticism and possible outrage from the community, Erotica has generally received favorable response, he said. \"It's all been pretty light- hearted. There's been a lol of talk in the community and it's all been positive. \"We expected it to be popular... I was expecting to get 30 (submissions) and to see 45 come in is indicative of the popularity of this subject on the Coast.\" The show runs until March 1. Rockwood set for one-woman show Local writer/performer Caitlin Hicks will debul her latest play, Singing The Bones, at Rockwood Centre in March Hicks performed last fall at Rockwood's Story- Telling Festival and saw the creative potential for theatre at Rockwood. \"Hicks approached us about a production and we thought it was a great idea,\" says Rockwood director Sandy McBride. Hicks' performance offers a fine combination of original music and presentation with creative use of the Rockwood facilities. The north wing will be turned into a 120-seat theatre for the performance. Directed by Gordon Halloran, Singing The Bones will be staged with unique approaches to light, sound and set. \"It's a non-traditional setting for theatre and that's what 1 like about it,\" said Halloran, \"The north wing is not your typical theatre space, but with Rockwood's technical assistance we are going lo try some unexpected things with staging and set.\" Singing The Bones is a modern version of the story of La Loba, the woman in the desert who breathes life into the bones of wolves. Caitlin Hicks' play explores the mystery between life and death by following a midwife's mystical journey. The audience is guided on a passage through the heart of darkness towards the healing light of birth. Performances will take place on Friday, March 18 and Saturday, March 19 at 8 pm. Tickets must be purchased in advance and will go on sale Feb. 14. For information conlact Rockwood Centre at 885-2522.
