The provincial government wants to reduce that eure Dy by $800,000, Anu- However, he declined to be specific about the ramifi- cations of the projected bud- get cut because he said it is possible that figure could change. “It's very hard for us to- make decisions until we know where we stand,” Anutoosh- kin commented. But the school board chair- man admitted that the prov- incial government's proposed: legislation will reduce the autonomy of school boards by setting limits on the amouft of money each district can spend on operating costs. VANCOUVER (CP) — One | of B.C.’s three major forest unions is calling for a formal common front té take on the industry at the bargaining table. : “We need a real show,” Canadian Paperworkers Union leader Art Gruntman said Tuesday. “We have to Show the companies that we ‘mean business.” If -an ar- rangement is reached with the other two unions, Grunt- man said the move could mean a co-ordinated, ‘prov- ince-wide strike against tthe industry. Negotiations stall- which bargains for the indus- ty, offered the province's 70,000 forest workers a three-year contract with no wage increase in the first year and 6.5 per cent over the next two years.
