It is possible to keep your

cheaper than alr condition-

manually or by thermostat.
‘You might check with a local
building ‘contractor or elec

mechanics of installation. Do
make sure the fan is placed
high on the roof to give you
its full benefit.

Facts About

Dear Sir:

Some facts about Premier
Barrett's financial priorities
may be of interest to your
readers in the Castlegar area,

During the Spring Session
of the Legislature, the official
opposition strongly critleized
Premler Barrett's $3.2 billion
budget because it-represented
a decline in spending ‘for
services to people as a per-
centage of the total spending
pieture.

In that budget, there are
many examples of Prémier

i Barrett's mistaken spending

priorities:

In short, many British
Columbians are feeling the very
real consequences of the reck:
less spending and extravagance
of the Barrett government
since it came into office. Money
which should have been’re-
served for the economic rainy
day British Columbia ‘is now
suffering through, has-been
spent—mueh-of it'on frivolous
items.

Now, the government is
faced with two options, neither
of which is acceptable to'me.

| With the provincial treasury
depleted, Premier Barrett must °

elther cut back on services or
face a deficit budget.

'¥' commitment, to’ the
people of British Columbia is to
form a government which ‘will
not only’ establish the ‘highest
and finest level of services for

‘people, but to provide sound

‘and stable management ‘of our
province's resources 0:that

‘these services can be fully

maintained in both good. and
bad-eeonomic times. -

| On top-of Premier Bar-
rett's' mismanagement and
waste, the provincial treasury
is being drained empty by
massive overruns by govern-

corporations. ICBC, $36 million,
B.G.R., $32 million. Hydro
transit $17 million, B.C. Fer-

parts of British Columbia this
summer, I have seen hard
evidence that the NDP govern-

but'a spokesman for the
teachers said it is likely: most
district teacher associations
will opt out of zonal bargaining.,
‘The provision for zonal
bargaining éstablished in legis-
lation during the'last session
was termed futile by both the
B.C, School ‘Trustees, Associa
tion (BCSTA) and the B.C.
Teachers Federation (BCTF).
‘The whole thing could be
complete nonsense,” says Peter

.

Bunn, vice-presidert of the *
BCSTA.

President of the BCTF, Bill ;

Broadley, has stated that with
the exception of “a few districts
in the Okanagan,” most of the
teacher associations will proba-
bly opt out of zonal bargaining.

Both the teachers “and »
school boards have until Sept. ~

25 to decide whether or. not tp
participate.
