For Mayor Audrey Moore of Castlegar, it was amalgamation of the for- mer town of Kinnaird with Castlegar that drew her into the municipal arena. “Here we had two small towns, separated only by a railway track with separ- ate councils and differen- ces in services. One council would vote for something and the other against it.” That was 1973, when she first came to council. She backed amalgamation and acessible level of govern- ment. Ordinary people can have a direct infli r lobbying the municipality over a development issue. “The lity was Mayor Marilyn Baker of North Vancouver District first got involved when she became concerned about the condition of a local road. “We had to carry peti- planning for a high density moved there,” says Baker.

Disagrees with tactics OTTAWA (CP) — Barbara McDougall, minister respon- sible for the status of women, says she disagrees with the protest tactics used earlier this week by Canada’s lar- gest women's group. “I do not agree with the kind of tactics that we saw over the last two days,” she told a Commons committee Tuesday. But she acknowledged it took a lot of yelling and screaming in years past to get politicians to take wom- en’s issues seriously. McDougall was referring to protests by the National Action Committee on the Status of Women against the government's decision to hold a special debate on the Constitution at the same time NAC members were sched- uled to be lobbying MPs. The lobbies, involving hun- dreds of women from across the country, are planned six months ahead and are con- sidered the highlight of the group's annual meeting. McDougall told reporters the debate hadn't comprom- ised the lobbies. Eight cab- inet ministers and 24 back- benchers showed up at the meeting with Conservatives MPs. CHANGED PLANS But NAC president Louise Dulude said the government changed at the last minute plans that had been made six months ago. en's League meets chambault; Community Life — Pat Paul and Marge Snei- der; — Anne Gal lo; Communications — maa erine Stadler; Funeral Receptions Beasie Schia- Convenors are: Spiritual Development —- Mila Rich- ards; .o7 Kay MeGalley and “Marge Snei- new executive is; der; Christian Family Life — ent —.
