Government Employees Union. Shields met with government officials in Vancouver Friday, including David Pool, Premier Bill Vander Zalm's principal secretary, to discuss the privatization scheme. Shields said government employee contracts will not necessarily be honored by private companies that may take over certain government enterprises. He said the govern. ment is using the privatization scheme to lay off workers. Last week Vander Zalm announced plans to sell off a number of ed or i including the natural gas division of B.C. Hydro and parts of the Ministry of Highways. Vander Zalm said almost every government service was a candidate for privatization. The union estimated 7,000 of its members would be affected by the first round of privatization, with as many as 14,000 of the union's 44,000 members ultimately affected. Poole had a more positive view of the meeting. He said the government is doing everything possible to minimize the affect of privatization on public servants and their jobs. But the union remained unconvinced. “We expect to see a lot of people unemployed,” union spokesman Sheila Fruman said. Shields went to the meeting to find out how privatiza- tion would affect the union's contract. “We got no specific answers,” said Fruman. Shields tabled a set of questions which the government said it would answer on Tuesday, Fruman said. The union also rejected a request that it participate in consultions on the selloff./ “We have absolutely no reason to participate in the process which will see elimination of our members’ jobs or the elimination of services,” said Fruman. “It became clear in the course of the meeting this government is committed to getting out of the business of providing services and will do so it’s antees that safe, p ‘when the highways maintenanee operations are sold.

A review committee established by Labor Canada is to develop special regulations on smoking in the workplace. “The Government intents to ban smoking in all public service workplaces by Jan. 1, 1988.” said Brisco. With over 200,000 employees, the federal public service is the largest employer to be affected by the legislation, he said in the Commons debate. With the way the legislation is currently worded, it, “would appear to exclude a large segment of employers. All banks would be excluded. Certain airlines, bus companies, ferries and so on would also be excluded,” he said. He went on to question the fairness of, “providing health protection to only some employees . . . and not to others.” A section of the proposed legislation stated the Act did not apply to employees and employers who had written agreements stating it did not apply. Brisco expressed concern, saying, “If that were indeed permissible under this Act, it would defeat the whole purpose of enacting such a piece of legislation.” Brisco, himself a smoker, said: “Bill C-209 is intended to protect the health of smokers and those non-smokers who are forced to inhale the second-hand or sidestream smoke produced by smokers. Clearly, the best way of protecting smokers is to either kill or cure them.” He finished discussion by commenting on the subject of airlines, which had been addressed by two speakers in the debate. “If smoking were banned entirely on our major carriers, on long-distance flights across this nation, it really would not bother me one iota.” No NDP endorsements By CasNews Staff The Rossland-Trail New Demo cratic Party has decided to not to said in a prepared release. The decision followed a special executive meeting this week in which tee oT formally endorse id in this year’s municipal and school board elections. “In the face of a number of races being decided by acclamation, we will not be looking at endorsements, as we had originally intended,” Rick Pon gracz, vice-president of the Rossland Trail NDP Constituency Association, TEACHERS continued from front poge d, superi P of financial institutions.

But Pongracz said this doesn't mean the NDP will not be involved in the Nov. 21 elections “With fewer races to look at, we will now be able to give greater practical support in a more flexible way,” he said. The NDP announced just two weeks ago that it would officially en- dorse one candidate for school board and one for council in Castlegar, Trail, Rossland and Beaver Valley. Pongracz said the New Democrats haven't dropped the idea of fielding candidates in local municipal and school board elections. “The announcement of official New Democrat involvement in local munici- pal elections created a great deal of interest,” he said. “As a result, we have established a standing committee which will now be looking at the needs of candidates in their particular con- stituencies.” As well, he hinted that the NDP may establish a civic party to enter municipal elections. “Given the response we've had, future directions will possibly include an electoral organization specifically directed at the municipal arena.” ordered OTTAWA (CP) — Mounties appearing before an RCMP board of inquiry must be allowed to have a lawyer, call witnesses and have access to any evi- dence against them, the Federal Court of Appeal said in a ruling madepublic this week.

Then Young quit last month when he was transferred to Vancouver. “We're looking to provide some stability to the cham- ber.

He added that the most important change Premier Bill Vander Zalm has in mind is the creation of economic regions throughout B.C. Risdon said chambers of commerce can play a large role in the new economic zones by nominating their own people to sit on the boards of the new zones. Elsewhere, chamber mem- bers voted to increase mem- bership fees — the first in- crease since 1982. Private members will be required to pay a fee of $50 a year.

KBS eyeing repeater signal By CasNews Staff The Kootenay Broadcast- ing System, which has radio stations in Trail, Nelson and Creston, now is hoping to attract an additional 4,000 listeners around the Koot- enay Lake area. Four Seasons Radio, owners of KBS, filed an application this week with the Canadian Radio-Televis- ion and Telecommunications Commission for a license to nnd operate an FM radio repeater signal at Crawford Bay on Kootenay Lake. The proposed new signal, would cover the Nelson, North Shore, Kaslo, Ains- worth, Balfour, Riondel. Procter, Gray Creek and Boswell. KBS general man ager Dennis Gerein, said in a press release that the area has a potential audience of more than 4,000.

The signal will be relayed by microwave from Nelson to Crawford Bay by way of Elephant Mountain. Accord ing to the press release, an agreement has been reached with the CBC on co-siting. “Since coming to the Koot- enays in 1981 Four Seasons Radio has placed a heavy emphasis on local news and sports coverage, as well as on community involvement. That same involvement will now be taken to the com- munities of Kootenay Lake,” Gerein. Weather Cloudy with showers today with highs near 10°. Lows tonight will be bet- ween 4° and 7°.

The militants’ protests were dwarfed by huge turnouts at peaceful campaign rallies of the three main presidential candidates. Canadians OTTAWA (CP) — Private prosecutions and suits against chemical manufacturers should be allowed in Canada in order to enforce i of pesticide r ions, says a study by the Law Reform Commission of Canada. The study also recommends that the public have access to information used by government departments to register pesticides. The study said Canadians are locked out of pesticide regulation but, “in light of some surprising breakdowns” in the regulatory process, they should be allowed to play a a much greater part. Currently only chemical companies who have registered a pesticide or are trying to register one may ask for a review of chemical registrations. Many pesticides still on the market were registered as a result of invalid tests done by Industrial Bio-Test Ldb- oratories, Inc., an Illinois-based commercial testing labor atory, the study notes. The Canadian government refused to take the pesti. cides off the market until retesting could be done and argued that removing the pesticides from use would sharply disrupt the agricultural sector of the economy. “The policy suggests that over the past 20 to 30 years, Canadian agriculture has become so independent on chemical pesticides to.produce food that once some chemi- cals are registered and used for a period of time, they develop a virtual immunity to remedial regulatory action.” The study says it’s doubtful that Parliament passed the locked out pest control laws in 1969 simply to protect agriculture. It also says the Illinois scandal, which resulted in charges against four executives, doesn’t appear to be an isolated event, although officials insist it was. “United States agencies apparently cannot answer this question to anyone's satisfaction because they appear to have some serious problems in their laboratory audit programs,” the study says. ‘The U.S. Environment Protection Agency has only one full-time professional monitoring the laboratories that do the tests. “Some groups in Canada have suggested the need for an independent ‘testing facility, such as a Crown corporation, financed from a tax on pesticide registrants or the general chemical industry,” the study says. When a chemical company applies to have a pesticide registered for use in Canada, the report says, the public isn’t told the application has been made and isn’t given access to the safety tests used to support the application. “While a pesticide company is guaranteed an ad ministrative appeal if a pesticide registration application is denied, no such right is provided to the public when a registration application is granted.” However, federa| and provincial politicians showed little interest in giving the public a stronger role, the study says. “The need for law reform, especially federal law reform, has become evident, if not acute.

TORONTO (CP) — Canada is being blanketed by a layer of toxic pesticide residues that are threatening the country’s animal life, a senior wildlife researcher said. environment, politicians and scientists are doing little to either comprehend or combat them, said Monte Hummel, president of the World Wild- life Fund Canada. Insect and weed killers along with various industrial chemicals are polluting the entire planet, from industrial centres to such remote areas as the Arctic, he said. “You cannot run away from it.” Hummel’s comments came during the release of the report of the Wildlife Toxi- cology Fund. The World Wildlife Fund operates the program with funding from Environment Canada, provincial govern- ments and industry. It was created after large cuts in toxic chemical re- search by the federal gov- ernment in 1964, ‘but now only provides enough money to study “the tip of the ice- berg,” Hummel said. For years, all levels of government have been re- luctant to face the serious- ness of chemical pollution, he said. One environment minister after another, “dearly hopes they are not the one who is going to have to tell it like it is and commit the amounts of money nécessary” to correct the situation, he said.

Dock crews in the Saudi port city turned their backs on the shipment of 30,000 board feet of lumber because its wrapping had a picture of Noella Herod, the company’s employee of the month.
