GISS graduating class given $25,000 in scholarship aid

The heat was stifling inside the Gulf Islands Secondary School gym at last Saturday's graduation ceremony. But in spite of some dis­comfort the gala event was an im­pressive display of the stellar achievements of the Class of 1989.

Almost half (26) of the 54 graduating students will go on to university and other post-secon­dary institutions, with the remainder going off to work or travel.

Many grads will continue their education with help from $25,000 in scholarships provided by local trade unions, service clubs, in­dividuals and other groups.

Presenting an award from his school, Dr. Abe Unran of Simon Fraser University noted competi­tion for SFU scholarships was tough this year. There were 240 scholarships awarded and the remainder of the 1,040 applicants were mostly straight A students.

Kurt Sadler won the S8.000 SFU award for academic excellence while Eva Lam was presented with a generous UBC bursary by GISS principal John Wellingham.

Ian Jukes, a former Salt Spring elementary teacher, was a lively and dynamic guest speaker. He recalled, in his outrageously funny way, giving another grad speech to these same students in 1984 when they graduated from Grade Seven.

In Canada and the United States

Lower interest rates 'appear inevitable' By BOB AUSTIN

In last month's column, I predicted an imminent end to the high interest rate policy of the Bank of Canada and a con­tinued decline in current Treasury Bill, GIC and bond yields.

Lower interest rates appear inevitable in both the USA and Canada as inflationary momentum in both countries ap­pears to have topped out along with decreases in the gross domestic production. Additionally, in face of the fear that a continued high interest rate policy will lead to a recession,

both the minister of finance and the governor of the Bank of Canada are facing strong business and political pressure to reduce rates.

How can you, the investor take advantage of this situa­tion? Be aware that there is risk in investing your money in short-term investments. While six-month Treasury Bills offer attractive yields of nearly 12 per cent there exists the very real possibility of having to reinvest these funds in six to 12 months at rates under nine per cent. While rates remain quite

attractive, consider longer-term investments which extend your yield past the upcoming year or two of lower rates.

I believe that the window of opportunity is closing rapidly on the opportunities associated with high interest rates and suggest that those investors who have not yet taken ad­vantage of them, give consideration to doing so.

Energy sector investments becoming more interesting By RICK SALES and PETER ROBSON

One sector of the Canadian stock market which is becoming more interesting is energy. The oil and gas index peaked out in 1981 with the introduction of the National Energy Program and subsequent collapse in oil prices.

At that time, energy stocks were the dominant market group and comprised roughly one-quarter of the TSE 300. Takeovers, but primarily lack of interest, have seen this percentage shrink by more than two thirds, to seven.

However interest is again building. The oil and gas index has been one of the best performing groups since the beginning of the year. And for good reason.

OPEC has stabilized the price of oil at a high level and world demand has been increasing.

While oil remains the primary worldwide energy commodity, the changing market for natural gas, par­ticularly in North America, is becoming more evident. With oil prices stabilized at higher levels gas consump­tion is once again increasing. Residential demand in­creased seven per cent over 1987 and 1988 and

according to the American Gas Association (AGA) residential gas installations, for the first time, now out­number electric installation and conversion from oil and electricity continues to accelerate.

The environment will play a greater and greater role in the demand for natural gas as emissions from fossil fuels must be curtailed. The AGA sees a strong outlook for gas-fuelled electricity generation and also for use in co-firing to reduce the emissions from coal-fired electric generation facilities.

The outlook for gas prices is improving and they are already moving higher much earlier this year than last in anticipation of expected power shortages in parts of the U.S. this summer.

Increased demand through growing markets to the south and better prices to come auger well for Canadian companies with gas reserves and production and marketing ability.

Offer advice if parents ask By BRUCE FOERSTER

Aging parents sometimes need help managing their financial af­fairs. If the task falls to you, the best advice you can remember is to handle things the way they think best They may want your opinion but probably don't want you to make all the decisions. It's crucial to try and understand their perspec­tive, which may be different from yours and, for their circumstances, possibly more appropriate.

Safety and simplicity are impor­tant to seniors. They know that if something goes wrong and they lose some of their savings, they can't replace it from earned in­come. They want to sleep nights knowing their income is safe and not lie awake worrying about risky decisions.

Lower earnings and less flexibility — that's usually the price we pay to reduce risk. But that's often a price well worth paying. For example, annuities that pay a monthly amount your parents can count on for the rest of their lives may be more attractive than registered retirement income funds, which might provide them with greater financial control but less certainty and more worry. And if your parents live as long as you hope they will, annuities could last longer and pay more.

Other ways you might help your parents financially include:

Obtaining power of attorney so that if it ever becomes essential, you really can take over without delay. Seniors are sometimes reluc-

Tennis trophy winner

Anniversary marked Henry and Louisa Adshead of Salt Spring Island, pictured above

on their wedding day, celebrated their 60th anniversary on June 10. Joining them in marking the occasion were many friends and rela­tives.

Grey skies and intermittent rain did not dampen the spirits of the players in the Salt Spring Tennis Association's annual 90+ tournament.

Winning prizes for their top scores were the doubles combina­tions of Barnie Cowan and Pat Lee, and Ruth and Paul Wright.

Completing the event was a pot luck dinner hosted by Mar­garet and Jack Fisher. All eyes were drawn to a large silver trophy, centrepiece for the din­ner table.

The cup, recently found, was for the Gulf Islands ladies' singles champion.

It was presented to the winner in the 1930s when the champion­ships were held on the clay courts at the Harbour House Hotel.

Among the names engraved on the cup are Caroline Deakin, a Canadian singles champion who subsequently competed at Wimbledon, representing Canada.

From 1964 until her death in 1978, Deakin lived on Salt Spring with Lou Rowan.

This trophy will once again be presented to the winner of the ladies singles competition of the Gulf Islands championships, which is held annually in August.

The Tennis Association would be grateful for information regarding the whereabouts of other Gulf Islands tennis cham­pionship trophies.

Almost half of island graduates plan to continue to university

WORK WANTED

SORRY TO HAVE BORED you with the same ad for so long.

I start building another house on Dover Place in early July. This one will have a nice view and lake frontage. I've got a great rustic contempor­ary passive solar family home in the mid 150's range in the works.

If someone wants to buy it, great. If not, I'll move into it. My family doesn't like the idea of a tee pee in the winter.

The new house will keep me pretty well occupied until end of August. The crew and I will be looking for work then, so do consider us.

Taxing more letters In your article on 1989 proper­

ty taxes (June 7), you quote the acting surveyor of taxes, Carl Youngblood, who downplays the Salt Spring assessment increases by referring to those in Van­couver. The pertinent points are the amount of taxes payable and the services those taxes provide.

Our residential Salt Spring taxes increased 39 per cent this year. Although the Salt Spring "actual value" was $37,000 lower than the "actual value" of a property on Vancouver's west side, the taxes payable were iden­tical.

The Salt Spring tax rate is ob­viously much higher than Vancouver's although the latter provides water, garbage pickup, sewers, sidewalks, parks and library services.

Why have the operating costs of this area skyrocketed and where are our tax dollars going? MARGARET HALVORSON, Ganges.

Unknown Why, you ask, do I feel so

depressed when I look out my window to the west of Stewart Road? Why does it upset me to see a widening and lengthening swath of brown on ground so steep. I can imagine the precarious position of the log loader, the sun­light glints sharply toward my binoculars. Questions barrage my brain. What does "private" land mean anyway? That we can do anything we want to it? What about our neighbours; don't we have to think of them? Will anyone really plant little trees back there? If they don't, how will new seeds get there before the thistles and nettles.

I see the ruts from heavy machinery running brown with fall rain, mixed here and there with hydraulic oil. What will live there now? I see the wind carry topsoil in dusty clouds. Will that wind blow down the neighbouring trees? Does feeling this way mean I am anti-economic growth? Is there another way to bring economic prosperity to the families of the owners who feel they must log off their large tracts of private lands on Salt Spring to keep themselves in food, shelter and 4x4's?

I guess I will find out some of the answers in the next year. With the laissez-faire attitude of the current government toward destruction of forest habitat, some answers remain unknown. There must be a better way. WENDY WICKL AND, Fulford Harbour.

Do nothing Editor's note: The following is

an open letter to environment min­ister Bruce Strachan, filed with this newspaper for publication.

Come on, Bruce Strachan! Get off your duff and start levying some fines against this Crofton pulp mill. You are the man in a position of power to close this mill down for the terrible pollut­ing that they are doing.

I deeply resent a do-nothing minister of the environment, while I watch helplessly from my home in Vesuvius, directly across from the mill. It pours fly ash, carbon and sulphur compounds, mercap-

tons, furans, and dioxins into the air and into our water supply in St. Mary Lake. I watch barges bring tanks of bleach, which after use is then dumped in the form of chlorinated compounds (including dioxins) from the outfall, killing our seals, fish, crab, oysters, birds, etc., or making them too dangerous to eat.

I see whole forests going by in

both directions drawn by tugs, and wonder how much of that mur­dered forest is going to be wasted. Large freighters move in and out, taking our wood to many different foreign ports. Out of the million-dollar profit that goes to the mill, how much goes back to the Canadian people to pay for their annihilated forests?

I spend sleepless nights listen­

ing to the terrible noise being emitted from the mill. Experts have told me that the noise is coming from the huge machines that are grinding up our trees into pulp to make white paper with. The noise is so terrible, it shakes the house sometimes, especially at night, making sleep anywhere in the house impossible.

And please explain what per­

mit the mill has to discharge at night the terrible black crap I see pouring trom me stacKs (orcuant you know about that?) — I have a photograph taken at dusk if you'd care to see it.

Why is nothing done? Are you afraid of these corporate bullies, that seem to have you dangling on a string? Can it be that their politi­cal power is greater than your own?

I am your sleepy-eyed, irritable and angry constituent. P.L. MAY, Vesuvius.

Do self-serve gas stations bum you out? They sure do me. You drive up to the island, get out, pump your gas, then walk to the pillbox where a bored teenager with a Walkman booming in his ear takes your credit card through a slit at the bottom of a sheet of (presumably) assault-proof glass. While he checks the card electronically to make sure you're not Baby Face Nelson, you get to read the charming notices on the wall:

BELL DENOMINATIONS OVER $20 NOT ACCEPTED NOTICE: TILL CONTAINS A MAXIMUM OF $20

ATTENDANT CANNOT OPEN SAFE Eventually, some computer in Dallas decided that you're good

for $12 worm of regular unleaded. Your card and a voucher are disgorged from the slit. You sign, scribble your licence plate num­ber and you're on your way. No fuss, no muss, no bother.

And minimal human contact. I tell ya, for a cold and heartless way to spend a few minutes, the old self serve is hard to beat.

Destined to disappear The bad news is that if the big oil companies have their way

that last tiny ember of person-to-person contact — you know, where the attendant slips you your card and says "Have a nice day" — is destined to disappear.

Down in Texas the oil barons are test-marketing fully automated stations. You drive up to the pump, get out and stick your credit card right into the gas pump. This activates the pump and releases the nozzle. You pump your gas, take your card out and drive away. Some computer in Dallas sees to it that some computer in your bank takes the appropriate nibble out of your balance.

The oil barons are very big on the fully automated gas station. "Full automation means not having to wait in line or deal with an intermediary who handles the money" carols an industry spokes­man.

What he doesn't mention is that the oil barons make more money from fully automated stations by eliminating the attendant's paycheck and forcing shmoes like you and me to act as unpaid employees.

There are some other "benefits" the industry spokesman doesn't mention when he talks about the impending brave new world of fully automated gas stations — such as where will we go if we run out of gas or have a flat or need directions or a wash­room?

It's a curious byproduct of some forms of progress that as things get more sophisticated they also get more primitive.

Chilly self-serve experience I can remember not so many years ago when we paid less for a

gallon of gasoline than we now pay for a litre. Driving into one of those old-fashioned, inefficient service stations wasn't anything like the chilly self serve experience. Two, sometimes three people would swarm your car. One would come to the driver's window and take your gasoline order while the other or others would check your oil, top up your battery, clean the windows — even debug your headlights and buff up the chrome on your bumpers if there wasn't a line of cars waiting.

The gas station was more like a corner store. It was a place you could take your lawn mower to be fixed, where kids could fill up the tires on their bikes or inflate their inner tubes for a trip to the beach.

There are still stations that provide free air, clean rest rooms and a licensed mechanic, but their numbers are shrivelling. Ten years ago, 75 per cent of all service stations had repair bays. Today, fewer than half of them do.

Donald Anglin is a writer who specializes in automotive mat­ters. He says that full automation personifies the gas station of the future. "The return on an investment is simply much higher" he writes. "The concept of the service station as a neighbourhood-oriented close family friend is just not there anymore."

Well, I didn't kill it. Did you?

Reasonable doubt about readings leads to impaired charge acquittal

A part-time Salt Spring Island resident was acquitted of impaired driving when he appeared in Gan­ges provincial court two weeks ago.

In handing down the decision, Judge A.E. Filmer said he had reasonable doubt whether 57-year-old Linden Sayer was as impaired as his breathalyzer samples indi­cated.

Breathalyzer samples taken from Sayer, who was stopped on North End Road last October by Ganges RCMP Const. Gary Styles, indicated he had more than three times the amount of alcohol al­lowed in his blood while operating a vehicle.

Judge Filmer decided the ac­cused did not show symptoms of impairment associated with a read­ing that high.

As a witness for the Crown's case, Styles admitted he was surprised at the high reading. He noted when he stopped Sayer, the accused had an open bottle of gin, with approximately one ounce of liquor missing, in a brown paper bag beside him. He noted a "faint" odour of liquor. He said Sayer had bloodshot eyes and fumbled with his wallet; he described his speech as "slow and deliberate."

Styles said Sayer leaned against his vehicle and had to be pulled off the road, when he started walking into the path of oncoming traffic.

Taking the stand in his own defence, Sayer told the court he began dr inking beer at ap­proximately 11 am that morning, as he mowed the lawn. He estimated he consumed four beer throughout the day, to a maximum of six. He also said he took a drink of gin in his vehicle, just prior to being stopped by police.

Expert Zenon Samila told the court a man of Sayer's height and weight, having consumed six beer by 6 pm when he was stopped by police, would blow about 75 mil­ligrams of alcohol per 100 mil-lilitres of blood — or just below the legal limit. Samila further said that although the gin may have pushed his reading up to 90 mg, the hard liquor would not have gone into his system by the time he was pulled over.

Judge Filmer questioned S amila on the abi l i ty of "seasoned drinkers" to mask impairment.

While Samila agreed heavy drinkers will show fewer symptoms

of impairment, he said only about 10 per cent of drinkers could have a reading that high without appear­ing severely impaired.

Judge Filmer said he had no evidence before him to indicate if the accused might be in that 10 per

cent of drinkers. Furthermore, he said, it would be difficult for an individual that drunk to mask his impairment during an extended period of time.

He found S ayer not guilty of the impaired driving charge.

About 75 people jammed into the Gulf Islands Secondary School music room last Tuesday night to hear a review of Is­land Watch activities for the past year, and to elect five new members to the board of directors for the coming year.

Reports were presented by Lisa Lloyd, John Lammers, Kathy Scarfo, Bob Andrew, Maureen Milburn, Meg Arteaga and Uri Cog an.

New directors elected to the board were Gary Lundy, Ron Brunette, Heather Martin, David Borrowman and Chuck Alsberg.

Continuing for a second year as directors are Deborah Carriere, Lisa Lloyd, Meg Arteaga, Kathy Scarfo and Bob Andrew.

Following the treasurer's report delivered by Lisa Lloyd, outgoing director John Lammers reviewed the forum on in-

Watch Society names directors

corporation held by the Watch earlier this year. He then dis­cussed the philosophical underpinnings of the society.

Kathy Scarfo described the accomplishments of the mini­ng task force, which helped stall Falconbridge's plans for mineral exploration on Salt Spring.

Bob Andrew discussed the society's initiatives in the areas of forestry and transportation.

Maureen Milburn outlined the progress of the public land

use task force. The Islands Trust intends to apply for licence of occupation for a trail system on Salt Spring's 1,900 acres of vacant Crown lands. The Watch has been working with the Trust towards that goal. The society has also formed a coalition with other community groups to produce a CRD-funded study of community-based usage of the Crown lands in the future.

Meg Arteaga indicated that the water resources task force would be working in concert with the Salt Spring Island Water Preservation Society in the future.

Uri Cogan discussed future directions for the Tideline, the society's newsletter.

Speaking from the floor, Hank Schubart stressed the need to plan for the future pro-actively, rather than simply reacting to perceived threats as they appeared.

down the years

Thirty Years Ago A motion to purchase four acres

of the Vic Jackson property on Scott Road, for use as a Rod and Gun shooting range, was over­whelmingly endorsed by a 28 to one vote. However, a forum was not present, so the club planned on mailing ballots to absent members. The property, which had an es­timated value of $400 per acre, had been offered to the club for $100 per acre by Jackson.

A Chamber of Commerce meet­ing revealed a provincial cabinet meeting would be held in July on Salt Spring Island. Premier W. A.C. Bennet and at least eight cabinet members were scheduled to meet July 14 at an undetermined area on the island.

F. Anderchek had a narrow es­cape from an explosion on his 32-foot boat Little Beaver at the Ganges public wharf. A small fire started below the engine, but quick action employed by Anderchek and members aboard the RCMP patrol boat doused the fire before an ex­plosion could occur. Anderchek suffered singed hair, but there was little damage done to the boat.

Twenty Five Years Ago

Gulf Island voters approved the high school construction referen­dum by a 71 per cent majority. The vote also included a request to build a teacherage on Galiano Island. The referendum had been turned down twice by islanders before receiving approval in the latest vote. School board officials expected the Ganges high school construction to begin shortly.

A Centennial Committee was established to plan Salt Spring celebrations of Canada ' s 100 birthday. Col. M.F. Peiler would head the committee, with W. Thor-burn as vice-chairman. The com­mittee would have approximately $8,000 to spend on a project and called for ideas from island resi­dents.

The Gulf Islands School Board issued a financial statement for the previous year. Trustees had spent $263,581 on education in the is­lands and showed a surplus of $3,729.

Lady Minto Gulf Islands Hospi­tal joined three other hospitals in the area to form the Cowichan, Newcastle and the Islands Health Council. The council was or­ganized to co-ordinate hospital ac­tivity and planning on a regional basis.

Twenty Years Ago The Salt Spring Chamber of

Commerce said the Fulford ferry

wharf should be transferred to Isabella Point. The highways department planned to repair the facility, but the chamber urged relocation. Opinion indicated the usefulness of the wharf at Fulford was limited.

The flags in Centennial Park had been stolen again. In the previous two years, the flags had gone miss­ing five times.

Mouat's Trading Company was planning to fill a section of fore­shore near their store in Ganges. R.M. Toynbee explained that the area located between the store and the bank towards Lower Ganges Road north of the restaurant, would be developed for commercial use and a parking lot

The road from Fulford to Vesuvius on Salt Spring Island would be reconstructed. The province had allocated up to $200,000 to bring the highway up to standard, following a severe winter which had damaged it.

The Galiano Ladies Service Club ended another season of providing community service. The final meeting of the season was to be held at the home of Mrs. Flo Bellhouse.

Fifteen Years Ago The proposed international

park, which would include the Gulf Islands in Canada and the San Juan Islands and Point Roberts in the U.S., was put on hold by the Canadian government. British Columbia was in the process of creating the Islands Trust for the Gulf Islands and the international park was premature, according to the Prime Minister's office.

Two young men lost their lives while swimming in Cusheon Lake. A third youth was pulled from the water and rushed to Lady Minto Hospital for treatment. One of the victims was from Vancouver, while the other had travelled to the island from Toronto.

The Mayne Island Wine-Arts Club held a seasonal wind-up party at the home of Joan and Al Drum-mond. Chairman Roy Crispin or­ganized a smorgasbord committee to feed the members who attended.

An all-candidates meeting in Ganges drew the four candidates in the federal election. New Democrat Tommy Douglas, Liberal Ray Kane, P.C. Don Taylor and Ernie Knott of the Communist Party ad­dressed a meeting of about 75 is­landers. Each was seeking a seat for Nanaimo-Cowichan-The Islands in the July 8 federal vote.

Ten Years Ago A Salt Spring couple was taken

to Lady Minto Hospital suffering from burns after their 22-foot boat exploded and burned in Vesuvius Bay. Mr. and Mrs. Art Hanson had their boat Rambler tied to the dock as they attempted to correct engine problems. After they cast off and travelled some 100 yards from shore, fire broke out. Rescuers were Carl Scott and Doug Wilson, both of Crofton, who untied their boat from the wharf and hurried to the burning vessel.

B.C. Ferries apologized for delays and schedule foul-ups on the S wartz Bay to Fulford Harbour run. The Bowen Queen and the Mayne Queen had been stretched to in­crease capacity, but were ex­pe r i enc ing p rob l ems . Ferry spokesman Bill Bouchard said many of the problems had been sorted out and things would be back to normal as soon as possible.

Five Years Ago A B.C. Ferry spokesman said

the corporation faces a particularly difficult decision on making cuts in service to the Gulf Islands. No decisions would be made until July, said Mike Young, but the run most l ikely to be effected by the corporation's cost-saving cuts would be the Tsawwassen/Gulf Is­lands route.

The contract between the Gulf Islands school board and the sup­port staff union had finally been signed. Both sides had been dis­cussing the contract since the fall of 1982, and the support staff had been working with out a contract since January, 1983.

The Ganges Sewer Implementa­tion Committee had scheduled a series of activities leading up to the construction of the sewer in Gan­ges. The committee, formed after the disbanding of the Ganges Citizens' Committee, consisted of major users of the proposed sewer system.

Site search In this week's Driftwood, there

is a statement on recycling and the Salt Spring solid waste plan, signed by the chairman of this very diligent solid waste and recy­cling committee. The following are a few comments that I have discussed with the chairman and feel compelled to make. These comments refer to the reaction from some Fulford area residents who have objected vociferously to the location of a "dump" near Ful­ford.

First of all, the above men­tioned committee has been work­ing for almost five years. It has considered numerous options and after the community appeared to prefer a transfer station for solid waste, and after the CRD solid waste study confirmed it as been the best solution, and after that decision was supported by the en­vironment minister, the local com­mittee worked to find a suitable transfer station site.

This search has gone on for several months, and a site that is ideal was located at a former high­ways gravel pit, just off Musgrave Road in the Fulford area. Please note that it was selected because it was the best and most suitable site on Salt Spring Island; it just hap­pened to be at the south end.

There have been references by some Fulford area residents to a transfer station as a "dump." this whole subject has been discussed for years, and there surely shouldn't be many who have not long since learned the difference between the two. Rather than at­tempt a comparison at this time, we will be arranging a meeting for the Fulford area residents, prior to any general meeting, that will fully explain what is involved. Please bear with us until that time.

However, when that meeting takes place, objectors to the site should come prepared with an ac­ceptable and realistic alternative that can be processed and put into operation within months. We are going to have this matter con­cluded, one way or another, this year. I know it took 20 years to finally settle the Ganges sewage problem, but five years will have to suffice for solving the island's solid waste problem. HUGH BORSMAN, M.D. Capital Regional Director.

Lose-lose On May 25, there was a rally in

Victoria supporting the logging of the Carmanah Valley. I empathize with the logger who perceives that his livelihood is being jeopardized by smug, urban environmentalists. I sympathize with the environ­mentalist who feels powerless to stop the destruction of our great forests.

I have worked for over 10 years in the forest industry, as both a logger and a log scaler. I feel much sadness when I see fingers pointed at one another. Ul­timately, we are all fighting for the same goal: the thoughtful, sus­tainable harvesting of our forests.

While those most concerned with preserving jobs and the forests for our children are bat­tling it out, the liquidation of our forests continues unabated. In­stead of polarizing one another by derisive characterization, those on the front lines could be studying the following issues together:

• The poor return that we are presently getting from your forest resource. "The American

more letters

forest products industry generates more than three times as many jobs and almost three times the unit value from comparative volumes of wood." (Victoria Times-Colonist, May 3, 1989). A November 1988 study showed that the B.C. lumber industry could add more than $1.7 bil­lion to its revenue by produc­ing more specialty wood products! Have you never been struck by the absurdity of buying charcoal briquets from Atlanta, Georgia?

• Second growth timber will be producing a high ratio of qualitatively inferior juvenile wood lumber. This drop in lumber quality means that we will be receiving substantially less revenue than we are cur­rently getting for our mature wood lumber. To smooth the transition to the new realities of juvenile wood, we need a comprehensive sustained yield policy of old growth harvest­ing.

• Selective logging of uneven-aged old growth forests will provide sustained yield of ma­ture wood timber. It will re­quire much more manpower to set up longline skylines. Selec­tive logging will tap one of our greatest resources in B.C. — the skill and expertise of generations of B.C. loggers. There will be no windfall profits, but there will be suffi­cient revenues to keep the in­dustry cost-competitive over the long run.

• We cannot rely on our present reforestation practices to safeguard our future. "Young trees on as much as 20 per cent of B.C.'s coastal forest land are showing severe signs of stress . . . " according to a UBC re­search team. (Vancouver Sun, 22/10/88). The next time that you drive by a replanted site, get out of your vehicle and note the number of young trees with distorted growth. Problems such as "off site" planting, abnormal leader growth, lammas growth branching, deer browsing and sinuosity are having a devastat­ing effect on the young planta­tion sites. We need sustained old-growth harvesting, not clear-cutting, until we can replace our forests competent-

iy. • The raison d'etre of multina­

tional resource companies is to return the greatest investment to the shareholder. Professor Colin Clark of UBC writes in

his essay Clear-Cut Economies of the effect of real interest rates on resource management "If dollars in banks are grow­ing faster than a timber company's forests, it is more profitable (indeed more economical) to chop down the trees, sell them, and invest the proceeds elsewhere. The reason for this is clear: unlike other capital assets — a steel factory, say, or a skyscraper — natural resources provide no return until they are har­vested."

• By the year 2005, it is es­timated that mechanical feller-bunchers will be harvesting 39 per cent of the trees in the South Zone of the Coast of B.C. (FRDA Report 027). As we decimate our old growth by clear-cutting we are moving ir­revocably towards increased mechanization in the harvest­ing of the much smaller second-growth timber. This trend will see massive layoffs in the forest industry.

• "Tourism is the fastest-grow­ing sector of the B.C. economy." (J. Doswell, Assis­tant Deputy, Ministry of Tourism). In 1988, wilderness tourism was a $20.4 million business in Tofino and Ucluelet. In Tofino, tourism supported 95 businesses and created 371 person years of employment, equal to 52 per cent of total community employment (Tofino Regional Tourism Study). Clear-cut log­ging and wilderness tourism are completely incompatible, only sensitive, selective log­ging can co-exist.

• "Soil degradation created by forestry practices over the 10-year period of 1976 to 1985-86 is presently causing an annual loss to the provincial govern­ment of approximately $80 million, and that is increasing by $10 million per year. By the year 2000, soil degradation could be creating a loss of over $200 million annually (FRDA report 038).

• In 1986, UBC's Forest Economics and Policy Analysis Project, headed by Dr. David Pearse, concluded that we would run out of economically viable virgin tim­ber on the Coast in 17 years. In 1920, 9.9 million cubic

metres of wood were harvested in B.C. In 1930 the figure was 12.7, in 1940 . . . 17.6, in 1950... 22.0, in 1960 . . . 34.0, in 1970... 54.7, in 1980 . . . 72.6, in 1987 . . . 92 million cubic metres of wood!

This is not sustainable develop­ment, it is a trajectory to disaster.

Unless loggers and environ­mentalists can sit on the same side of the table and discuss these is­sues of common concern, we are in a lose-lose situation. JAMES R. PINE, Victoria, B.C.

Liability A number of hard-working and

dedicated parents have been col­lecting funds to improve the playground facilities at Centennial Park. They call themselves Parents for Playgrounds.

Recently they have been ex­pressing concern about the pos­sible risks to children on the proposed Ganges seawalk; they speak in terms of "childproofing" the facility. The following com­ments are therefore relevant:

First of all they should be care­ful not to confuse the seawalk, which will be a public through-fare, with playgrounds. Secondly, the seawalk will not be completed until possibly late this year, and discussions concerning what added safety measures are ap­propriate, if any, can be decided at, or nearer, that time.

My particular interest is that upon completion of the seawalk, the CRD will be asked to take possession, including respon­sibility for care and maintenance, and also, the CRD would accept responsibility for liability. Prior to that time, what is done at similar facilities throughout the country will be explored, and appropriate legal opinions sought.

Until that time the CRD, and of course the Parks and Recreation Commission, have absolutely no responsibility for the seawalk. They will, inevitably, be con­cerned that the construction is such that maintenance will be at a minimum. HUGH BORSMAN, Regional Director.

Can we beat it? On Monday June 12,1 attended

a meeting of the Salt Spring Island Transportation Task Force at which the resident-only vehicles policy suggestion was discussed.

Aside from the legal questions, some people thought it would be too much of an inconvenience for visiting families. Some believed that tourists who couldn't drive here would simply go elsewhere, leaving us empty-handed (separat­ing North Americans from their cars is the challenge of the 1990s). Another opinion was that 50 per cent of island businesses would be devastated by such a policy.

From the discussions that took place there, the sense I got is: Isabella Point is a fait accompli.

Since the impact on business of a restricted vehicle policy is stated as a reason to forget it, perhaps we should look more closely at the implications of the Isabella Point terminal. For example, its impact on Ganges is certainly worth con­sidering.

Wishful thinking notwithstand­ing, it will be impossible to save the Long Harbour ferry, which is the reason for building Isabella Point in the first place. Even with commitments from B.C. Ferries to continue it, eventually it must atrophy and die. So Ganges will lose the income it derives from the Long Harbour ferry "industry" and the families it supports.

Ganges will also be shut out of the future growth on the island. With Sidney only 20 minutes away, certainly more people will do their shopping in Sidney and Victoria. (A recent poll showed some real interest here on Salt Spring for the Isabella Point ferry terminal. If I were a business per­son, I'd be asking myself why.).

Finally, the Ganges business community will lose out on the myriad and substantial oppor­tunities presented by a more for­ward-looking restricted-vehicle approach of some sort. Remem­ber, the object is not to restrict tourists, just vehicles. Some meaningful and lucrative oppor­tunities would derive from such a policy, if it were implemented in a rational and gradual fashion — let us say, over the same four-year period it will take Ferries to im­plement the Isabella Point ter­minal.

Those who wish to prevent the Isabella Point terminal — both Ganges business people and ordi­nary residents — would be wise to contact their Island Trustees and CRD Director now, because I believe time is short. My sense is they are definitely leaning in that direction.

Eric Donnelly at the Mobile Market — who is all in favour of restricted vehicle traffic to the is­land •— warned me that nobody ever beat the automobile. Will Salt Spring Island be the first? At the moment, it doesn't look like it. SAM LIGHTMAN, Fulford Harbour.

Too late for PR MacMillan Bloedel's Jana

Kumi has reared her head once more.

How flattering that she took time out from her busy work to respond to my article in Driftwood's guest column.

Ms. Kumi indeed was at the forum held in the Carmanah Val­ley May 8, a forum designed to in­form the artists present of the pertinent issues. Artists from many parts of British Columbia attended the two sessions or-

more letters

ganized by the Western Canada Wilderness Committee, including artists from Port Alberni, Duncan, and the Cowichan Valley.

A number of mistaken and misleading statements were made by Ms. Kumi in her article. A small number of media crews did arrive by helicopter, land, leave their crews and then return to pick them up. This did not account for the frequent buzz of helicopters overhead throughout our stay in the valley.

Ms. Kumi failed to mention that when the accelerated plan to log the whole Carmanah Valley was discovered by WCWC in spring, 1988, MacMillan Bloedel locked them out of the valley with gates and chains. In a landmark court case in the summer of 1988, a Vancouver judge decided that the people of this province do have a right to access to Crown land, and even though MacMillan Bloedel holds the tree farm licence to the valley it does not have the right to bar people from entry.

The Wilderness Committee, with the help of volunteers, proceeded to establish the majority of the beautiful hiking trails providing public access to the wondrous sights of Carmanah Valley.

Jana Kumi's description of MB's "liberal" plans for the Car­manah Valley have only come about because of pressure from groups like the Wilderness Com­mittee and the Sierra Club. The valley would have had the same "cut and run" treatment of many other areas on Vancouver Island if environmental groups had not brought the issue into the courts and to the public's attention.

It's too late, Ms. Kumi, for the public relations campaign. Anyone driving into Carmanah can see that MacMillan Bloedel has had its "share" of the public forest and more. People in this province are finally standing up and saying,"we've had enough of the destruction." LYNDA LAUSHWAY, Ganges.

Comfortable? Peace House at Nanoose Bay

reports Knox class frigates (U.S., nuclear-weapons capable) in Esquimalt Harbour and Nanoose Bay during the week of 12 June. Are you comfortable, knowing that?

Nanoose Bay is located be­tween Nanaimo and Parksville, and is home to one of the world's largest underwater weapons test­ing facilities. (Yes, it's Canadian, but is under long-term use agree­ment with the U.S.)

Several years ago a group of concerned adults began camping on the shores of the bay and set up a watch, noting arrivals and depar­tures of all military vessels. As time passed group members estab­lished an organization dedicated to returning the bay to public use, converting it from military off-limits use.

The Nanoose Conversion Cam­paign now has a permanent home on the bay. The Peace House is staffed by volunteers, and is a treasure trove of peace, justice, and environmental materials.

Interested persons should con­tact NCC at RR2 Arlington Rd, Box 6, Nanoose Bay, B.C., VOR 2R0, or call 468-7335. RAY NEWMAN, Ganges

More secure We're parents concerned about

the safety of the waterfront boardwalk. There is enough space for a child to accidentally fall be­tween the boardwalk rails to the rocks or water below. To invite people to the shoreline with an en­ticing walkway and then put them at risk seems to defeat the good intentions of the planner.

Peace of mind by way of a roll of wire (as on the Centennial Park section) or another vertical board or two seems simple enough. It would, of course, still only give partial protection as there would still be areas that wouldn't be "kid-proofed" — i.e., the federal wharf. Parental supervision is es­sential in any potentially hazard­ous public area such as the Stanley Park Seawall, Mount Maxwell Park or even just walk­ing down the street.

We are aware that the people responsible for the boardwalk are genuinely interested and sensitive to community concerns and are considering building a ladder or ramp for emergency access to the foreshore area, and we appreciate them addressing that point but we feel that the walkway could be en­joyed more with a more secure railing.

A fast one A small, last-place paragraph

in Dr. Borsman's column in last week's paper mentioned a request for tenders for a solid waste trans­fer station and recycle depot. Someone out-there is trying to pull fast one on us.

There is a notice at the entrance to a gravel pit on Musgrave Road that announces it is an application for dispensation of Crown Land for the transfer station, to be built there.

I had always thought things like this were supposed to go to a referendum, I was told five sites were being considered; who decided on Musgrave Road? The public certainly did not. Will we be presented with a referendum that says, no garbage service on Salt Spring or a dump on Musgrave Road only?

Assurances have been made that leak-proof containers would be used; if that is true, why can't the present dump site be used? There would be no further con­tamination, and if there was a leak, at least a whole new site wouldn't be affected.

I know that no one wants a dump in their back yard, but this site IS my backyard, and my neighbours and I all get our water from an open pond that is right next to the site.

I think Dr. Borsman and S. Jocelyn of the CRD should open up and inform the public of all aspects of this issue.

Also, with everyone being urged to recycle, wouldn't a more central and convenient recycle depot near Ganges be more ap­propriate? Who would drive from Southey Point to Musgrave to drop off some cans and bottles?
