Harcourt and NDP turn at the plate Sun Reporter Mike Harcourt and the New Democrat Party could easily be compared to baseball players awaiting the big game. “We are the guys warming up in the batting cage,” said Har- court during a visit to Castlegar on Tuesday. “Only every time we step up to the batter’s box the other team calls the game on account of rain.” To say that Harcourt and his crew are anxiously awaiting an election call from Premier Rita Johnston would be an understate- ment of the greatest magnitude. But that isn’t to say that they don’t believe it will be a difficult battle. “We have a lot of work to do to make sure that people in this elec- basic, simple, clear election. And it boils down to choices,” said Harcourt. “The choice is whether or not you want four more years of a Bill VanderZalm/Rita John- ston administration that has really lost it’s way and isn’t listening to people.” Not only is Harcourt ready to drop the gloves and start duking it out with the Socreds in an election campaign but he fecls good about the support his party has received around the province to date, “The majority of the British Columbians that I have talked to are ready for a change, and they know the difference that the New Democrats can make.

Wormsworth, the Literacy Symbol for the British Columbia Library Association, made its way from the Castlegar and District Pub- lic Library to City Hall. The journey was made as a final round-up for the ‘Reading Adventurers’ reading program for children ages 11 and under and as promotion for World Literacy Day, Sept. 8. Celgar and PPWC reach agreement for end of lockout Sun Reporter * (The Pulp, Paper and Wosdworest of Canada have voted ovei- in favor of accep ffer from Celgar Pulp Co., paving the way for close to 750 cuales ne back to work. The PPWC held a vote on Sunday afternoon after Celgar put an ini- tial offer on the table Thursday. Some minor changes were made to tht offer on Friday before being approved by the membership in a vote on Sunday. ‘Aves ptinee of the deal by about 300 PPWC workers ended an ie. day-old lockout of Celgar’ ’s inside workers, which also shut dowa Progress on the company’s $700 million Ssransion and modemization Project. 350 on the Project honored the PPWC’s picket line since the first day of the lock- out, in defiance of a back to work order issued by the B.C. Supreme Court to the site’s major compacts because of picketing by the PPWC., Doug Cargill, S lations for Celgar, said that the inside mill workers soa be called back to the job over the next couple of weeks as preparations are ongoing for a regular mainte- nance shutdown. “What we are doing is we are spending this week preparing fora maintenance shut down next week, everything should be back running close to normal after that,” he said. Celgar representatives refused to disclose the details of the agreement which brought an end to the 18-day lockout, only saying that the, local issues have been settled and Celgar Pulp Co. and the PPWC local will join Frommnee wide negotiations which begin next week. oh Cal Him was i for .City-water supply to . be shut down Monday The City of Castlegar is notify- Barry Comin, Superintendent ing residents that extreme mea- sures will be needed on Monday, September 2, in order to preserve adequate water supply in the city. On Monday, Celgar Pulp Co. will be shutting down the City of Castlegar’s water supply for a 24 hour period forcing the City to take extreme measures in order to ensure enough water for house- hold usage and firefighting demand. As such, the City is asking res- idents to limit usage of water on Monday to essential d Canada’s future depends on fundamentals: Sun Reporter said Wilson. ‘As Ian Mavety of Southview Farms has said: ‘Production of fine wine in B.C. has a good future. We're getting good very fast and free trade was the impetus."” That is not to say that every- thing is rosy for Canada on the trade front, Wilson noted that Canada has ranked fifth for the last two years running in the World Economic Forum's survey of competitiveness of the 23 OECD nations. That was up from 11th place five years ago but it is By Leigh Rubin ‘Y'9-29 wigny y697 16619 Duy “aERpUkS svO;eaT ) also down from fourth place two years ago. “We are rated near the top for our natural endowments, our human resources, our transporta- tion and health services infras- our market ori and research and development, hold the keys to Canada’s future competitiveness, “We have a | Challenging situa- tion before us in this country, we spend more per capita on higher and the dynamism of our econo- my but there are also strong waming signals on the horizon,” he said. “In terms of the respon- siveness of our school system to meet the demands of a competi- tive economy, we ranked 11th, in the middle of the pack. And in terms of the Seton of than any country in the world except Sweden, and we have the world’s second highest Post secondary enrollment after the United States,” said Wilson. “And yet we are facing a critical shortage of scientists and engi- neers. Japan graduates nearly nine times as many engineers on a per capita basis as we do. Mexi- co gradi four times as many trainin, we ranked 20th, at the back of the pack.” Wilson believes that education, in absolute terms.” In the Speech from the Throne, the government set out three top a leaming culture in this decade: to cut adult illiteracy in half by the year 2000; to achieve a 90 per cent high school graduation rate or equivalency; and to double the ‘number of math, science and All of these initiatives will ‘help improve Canada’s competi- { tiveness on the world market.

While the water supply is shut off, to facilitate work within the Celgar expansion and moderiza- tion project, the City will draw water from it's 2.5 million gallon reservoir and two supply wells. “What we are hoping to avoid is one of those extremely hot days where water usage rises dra: matically,” says Comin. “On a very hot, hot day we can use any- where from six to seven million gallons of water during a 24 hour iod.” ‘SUN STAFF PHOTO / Brendan Halper ~ z Getting their greens!
