Premier Bill Vander Zalm appears to have some under. standing of the West Kootenay unemployment situation. Too bad Stan Hagen, Minister of Advanced Education and Job Training, doesn't. Vander Zalm was given a rude reception during his visit to this area last week (which I think ac. curately reflects growing disen chantment with the man and his policies). But one thing that would have surprised even his worst critics is his apparent awareness of the region’s jobless. picture. “We presently have too much unemployment in this area,” he told a mayor's meeting in Trail. “We've got to get every project going we possibly can in order to get as many people working as quickly as possible.” For someone who showed an amazing lack of knowledge on other issues (such as JobTrac funding and the cost of the Keenleyside dam project), Vander Zalm seemed to be in touch with the Kootenay economic situation. That's more than we can say for Prime Minister Brian Mulroney who last week re. fused to believe the jobless rate in Kamloops is more than 20 per cent While the Lower Mainland is going through a mini-boom of sorts, and some other areas in the province are seeing their jobless rolls shrink, unemployment in the West Kootenay is on the rise. In fact, it is among the worst in Canada. Even Newfoundland has a better rate. But if you listen to Hagen, you'd think we were awash in jobs. Hagen defended shelving the prov ince's much-publicized JobTrac em ployment program because of de clining. unemployment “It was felt that with the decrease in the unemployment rate — dropping by three to five per cent around the province — that gov ernment assistance programs like this were not needed this year.” Say what? Hagen must be kid ding, either that or he's confused Mission with Mississauga. The Lower Mainland is the only region in B.C. that has an unemployment rate lower than 10 per cent. The rest of the province is still in double digits Here in the West Kootenay we're looking at a level of unemployment matching the very depths of the re- cession years of the mid-1980s. Take last month, for example. March recorded a 21.1 per cent unem ployment rate in the area that en compasses the Regional District of Central Kootenay and the Columbia Shuswap Regional District (Nelson, Castlegar, Creston, Revelstoke, Golden and Salmon Arm). That is marginally higher than the 21.0 per cent rate in March 1986 and a whopping five points higher than last March. Newfoundland’s rate is around 17 per cent. Shocked? So was I when I first saw those totals. It means one of every five employable persons in this area is unemployed Now, it should be pointed out that unemployment levels always jump in the first three months of each year, so we will likely see a drop in the unemployment rate as the year progresses. Still, it's significant that the rates for January, February and March are as high or higher than the very worst years of the recession. The reason the figures are so startling is that things looked like they were pickifg up around here. It was commonly thought that the hard times were gone. And to some extent they are. Celgar Pulp Co. is modernizing its pulp mill, Westar Timber is completing a major upgrading and Cominco is going full speed ahead with its new lead smelter. Even the people at Trails Canada Employment Centre say the high jobless rate is something of a mystery. They say nothing of any significance has happened in any of the region’s centres that would make the unemployment rates rise so dramatically. Certainly, Cominco laid off hun dreds of employees with its belt tightening — but that was more than a year ago. And since then the company has hired hundreds of workers for its smelter project. It's true Westar Timber's mill modernization will mean about 50 fewer full-time positions, but that won't be until later this year. Regardless of what was respon sible for the increase in unemploy ment, the latest figures clearly show we have not emerged from the shadow of the recession. And this brings us: back to Vander Zalm and Hagen. The premier says we've got to get some projects going here as quickly as possible. At the same time, his minister in charge of job training scraps an $81-million-a-year pro gram that helped the unemployed and those on social assistance Perhaps the JobTrac program isn't necessary in Vancouver or Victoria, but it seemed to be pretty valuable in the Castlegar area — just ask anyone who benefitted from it It would seem logical, then, that the provincial government target particular high unemployment areas such as the Kootenays and the Shuswap and pump much-needed job creation funds into those areas. If Vander Zalm truly recognizes there is an unemployment problem in this region then it's time for him to get that message across to his ministers so they can put into action some programs to help solve the problem, cee Time Air responds I wish to respond to an article in your March 30 paper concerning the withdrawal of Canadian Airlines from Castlegar on May 1, 1988. My concern is that. Time Air will be taking over the services of Canadian Airlines and Time Air's position on the changeover was not sought by your newspaper. Only the position of the Transport Communications Union, representing airport employees of Canadian Airlines, was sought. Time Air salaries are very com- petitive with the salaries of airlines its size throughout Canada and the U.S. In addition to paying competitive salaries and benefits, we also provided for em- ployees to receive profit sharing which, in 1987, amounted to $421,000 shared between 549 employees. The positions we had available at Castlegar Airport were advertised internally at Time Air, as well as advising Canadian’s employees at Castlegar that they could also apply for Letter disturbing We, the initiating committee of the Dove Hill Park, are disturbed at the contents of a letter from members of Selkirk College's Department of En ir Sciences and Tech i published in your last Sunday's paper. The rhetoric by department mem. bers that our proposed cairn outline of a dove “will serve not as a symbol of peace but as a further emblem of man's propensity to destroy his environment” lacks knowledge of our committee's objectives. It is our intent to develop the hill in concert with the public-at-large. Experts in a variety of Ids are welcome to join our open committee to help plan and nurture a better natural site. Specifically speaking about the department's concern for a deer habi tat, presently the browse for deer can be much improved so as to sustain a larger winter population by pruning, controlled burning and brush planting activities. The site offers an exciting labor. atory for developing public education ina variety of awareness levels, and we invite all interested groups and indivi duals to join of committee to work toward this end It is not oulhature to function ina confrontationa] style; rather, we work with people toward a consentient plan of action. We welcome members of the college's Environmental Sciences to phone 365-8068 to arrange a meeting to limi: any mutual ‘stand. ing in regard to the Dove Hill Park. Colin Pryce On behalf of the initiating committee Conroy supported We express our support for Ed Conroy for his willingness to walk the picket line of the postal workers to back their struggle to protect collective bargaining rights which working people had come to accept as part of our democratic tradition. It is ironic, even a travesty, that Ed Conroy faces court charges It would be more appropriate as far as we are concerned that Canada Post Corporation face court charges for its use of strikebreakers — 4 pro vocative violation of the dignity of workers like ourselves. Bud and Ann Godderis Castlegar the positions if they so wished. Most of the Canadian employees did elect to do so and received full-time employment from Time Air. We have also offered the man- ager's position at the Castlegar Airport to Barry Ehman, who was previously the manager for Canadian Airlines. Barry has recently experienced health problems but we are hoping that he will recover soon and can resume his managerial role at the airport by May 1, Finally, the service we will pro- vide to the citizens of Castlegar will be the safe, economic and dependable type they have been used to from Canadian Airlines International but with an improved level of frequency. Glenn E. Pickard vice-president Marketing and Commercial Services Editor's note: In fact, the Castlegar News did contact Time Air for its Position. Castlegar acting station man- ager Ron Armburster, a Time Air representative, is quoted in the March 30 article mentioned above. Mr. Arm- burster was asked about the fact Canadian Airlines workers at Castle- gar Airport would have to take pay cuts of as much as 50 per cent if they decided to remain and work for Time a » he declined to If the Castlegar News was remiss in its: coverage of the Time Air-Can- adian Airlines switchover, it was not in the March 30 report, but in the initial Feb. 3 article. In that article only Time Air and Canadian Airlines represent- atives were quoted. The newspaper did not seek the opinion of the Transport Communications Unions, or the em- ployees affected by the change. Castlegar hospital asset to community T would like to taKé*this opportun ity to commend the Castlegar and District Hospital for its friendly atmosphere and quality of care, which I recently had occasion to sample during one stressful week in February, due to a brief but depressing run-in with pneumonia. It was a light dose to be sure; but one trembles to think of those who get a heavy one. In particular, I would like to express appreciation for those modern. day Florence Nightingales who dwell therein, plying the skills of their much-needed profession — pleasant but efficient, no-nonsense “mothers” — professionals who ensure with clock work regularity that one gets the prescribed dosages of pills along with installments of oxygen bubbled through saline solution and other judi cious treatments. Those of us who normally take no pills or medication of any sort must admit having to resist the temptation at times to dedicate some of those interminable pills to the welfare of the flower arrangements. But then I remembered the feeling of helplessness that winter in the 1940s when we almost lost our only sister as she lay for days, gasping for breath with a severe dose of pneumonia — before the days of penicillin and the sulfa drugs. So I took my pink modernized versions of these wonder drugs without any fuss and waited (not in vain) for them to eradicate the pulmonary invaders bent upon my destruction. In my sister's case it was only through a drastic life-saving measure at the Rossland hospital that she survived — removal of one rib and insertion of a tube to clear her lungs. We sometimes refer to pneumonia as the “old man's friend” — it puts us out of our misery at the very last when life becomes impossible to sustain any longer. But after my little standoff with the “grim reaper” I am convinced that this powerful bug likes to put younger men and women in the “pine box” too. So I offer this bouquet of thanks and appreciation to the doctors, nurses and other dedicated people of the tlegar and District Hospital who daily eare for those of us who become afflicted from time to time with illness or injury — of every imaginable kind — and bring us back to health — when this is reasonably possible. I was impressed with the friendly atmos- phere, the spacious and spotlessly clean wards, the clean and tidy condition of the patients — neatness which the nurses insisted upon, espec ially before visiting hours. At times it seemed like we were getting ready for a visit from the Queen. But cleanliness and health and positive mental ai ide no doubt all go hand in hand. The meals seemed a bit meagre at first, but improved consider. ably as one regained one’s mental faculties sufficiently to attend to circling the desired items on the menu sheets — thus selecting to some extent one’s own made-to-order meals. Those “angels of mercy” with the welcome bedside manner which we all need so much when we are feeling low represent quite a change from the days when hospitals were dark, crowded places and nurses — though well meaning enough — were often strict and severe like sergeant majors in the army. For this welcome change a great tribute is surely due to modern day nursing psychology — with its much more human approach. Those of us who have done shift-work at industrial plants — and know what a drastic effect the “graveyard” shift has upon one's life schedule — marvel that these charming but efficient ladies can still come up with a smile and even a little sense of humor after a 12-hour all-night shift. Although I try to patronize hospitals as rarely as possible (as a patient), I was very grateful — on the night of my admission — for the kind, reassuring, competent nurses with their gentié bedside manner, and for the clean, friendly hospital in which they carry out their good works — great assets to our community. Harry F. Killough Castlegar Boycott media I think the media should be ashamed of themselves and people should wake up and boycott the totally biased garbage the media have been promoting. On one hand they take everything our hard-working, clean- living premier (who has high moral values) is trying to do to make B.C. a better place for everyone and try to turn it against him, while on the other hand they put someone like Svend Robinson up on a pedestal ‘and seem to worship every deviant thought he has. They crucify a man like Peter Toigo whose terrible crime is wanting to invest money in our province while they ery big crocodile tears for the rights of those who have committed real crimes. Is the public really so gullible it will believe the poppycock it is being fed?

Apri 1980 CastlégarNews as ar News 4s Semester system better I am a Grade 11, first-class honor-roll student at Stanley Hump- hries secondary school and this letter is concerning the changes being made to the school timetable. In the newsletter that was given to students informing us of the decision to change our timetable several reasons were given. One of these was to provide more time for students to master academic concepts and subject matter. Another was to provide a wide selection of courses. This academic year 1987-88, the courses that I chose were Social Studies, French, Chemistry and Earth Science in the first semester and English, Algebra, Physics and Biology this semester. My plans are to pursue a career in the sciences and I have been able to maintain a first class standing in all my subjects except for French which I averaged 81 per cent. My course selecti was ici for and Physics, two related subjects, I can devote a full half of my study time and energy to these major disciplines. Last semester, I took Social Studies and French at the same time. These two subjects were ones that I wanted to get out of the way since they were not a major part of my future plans. In other words, the semester system allows me to study more intensely in particular discipline areas, It has been my experience that with the linear system, teachers have more time to complete the course and the temptation is for some to relax and be less organized. They can dwell on shorter and it is easier to recall material first covered. The review process becomes a major problem at this time of year with the linear system. It is now in April and May when the material covered in September must be given attention once again to bring into focus the material taken at that time, When a rush to cover new material is going on at the same time, the work load with eight subjects can become overwhelm. ing. So tl i system in fact reduces the overall time available to the student. For students who have failed sub- areas in the course that are i: 4 to them and near the end of the Program, in April or May, they accelerate the coverage of the remain- ing material that’s required, placing a large burden on the student and still they do not have time for review. With providing me with all the courses that I required, If I were required to take these eight courses concurrently, I would find it very difficult indeed. Presently, while taking Algebra the fi th course it is easier for both the teacher and the student to systematically lay out the course material within the time required. Less jects, the system is much more convenient for them since if a subject if failed in the first semester, the students’ schedule can be moved around and the course picked up again in the second semester. I have had the experience of the two separate course plans and I personally think that the semester system is better suited to my study habits and high grade expectations. review is required in the system since the length of the course is Grads voice concern Re: SHSS 1988 Graduation. The Brilliant Cultural Centre's main floor seating capacity is around 700. Why is it that Grant Lenarduzzi and his committee refuse: to hold the cere- monies in the much pacious and traditional Community Complex, in- stead of crowding 1,200 people plus 166 graduates into the smaller cultural centre? With people needing many more tickets and undergraduates wishing to see their friends graduate, the up to 2,500 seating capacity of the Commun- ity Complex is far more suitable. It has also been approved by the fire mar- shall. Is our school and the cultural centre's insurance void if we hold the grad ceremonies in the Brilliant Cultural Centre without the fire mar- shall's approval? Who is going to make sure only the approved number of people get into the hall? As we understand the situation, Mr. Lenarduzzi and his committee are saying that the graduation ceremonies are being held at the cultural centre no matter what. These are just some of the con- cerns that we, the graduates of 1988, have. . 22 concerned grads seven Grade 11 students + I would not be against the introduction of a new system if — and only if — the proposal was explained to all the students and teachers, and a vote was held and the result was in favor of the change. This vote would give one vote per person, students and teachers alike. The students of this school are soon going to be on their own, voting and having to make responsible decisions on their own. Isn't it reasonable to give students a chance to give their input and feelings on a subject concerning themselves instead of the decision being made for them? My feeling is that many students are not only angry by this, but feel let down also by an unreasonable decision being made and labled as something “good for the students.” These stu- dents are capable of making decisions by themselves if only given the chance.

It has been suggested that instead of taking every case to court, a sharpening of negotiating skills would be in order.
