will mean a: reduction of his
“discretionary power” to visit
the riding when the house is in
session “on a day when -you,
say. have an invitation to speak
to a Rotary: Club.” :

According to Nicolson, who
has_ represented ; Nelson-Cres-
ton since 1972, B.C.° voters
probably would have been the

‘winners no matter who had
won the close-run race.

“I said’ earlier in the
evening when both sides seem-
ed to be running neck and neck
that whoever was going ‘to be
elected it was going to be witha
strong opposition,” said’ the

‘ Nelson-Creston MLA, re-elect-

ed with a 1,848-vote margin
over Socred challenger, Hank
Coleman.

“It is going to be very hard
on the members on both sides
of the house but; it might be
better for the people of B.C.”

Both parties, he said, “are
going.to have to be very
disciplined in terms of their
attendance.” ‘s

“#1 think -.with .a., larger

number of NDP members and

with maybe a few backbenchers |

feeling ‘the ropes it might be
possible that on certain impor-
tant questions the opposition
will have more effect in the
house,” Nicolson said. }

-"You always find the gov-
ernment ‘bringing \in certain

pieces of legislation that some ©:

‘of the, backbenchers on the
government side ‘aren't too
crazy about. So it would only
take maybe two or three people
to break ranks on a certain
issue and it could put the
government in.a very tough
position.”

Regardless of the extra

demands which will be placed .

on his role as Nelson-Creston
MLA, he said, he still expects
to spend a considerable amount
of time in his riding while the
legislature is sitting.

“Even when we are in
session I'll try to: get home
every weekend, and also maybe
even take a few days to come
up and attend special events,"
Nicolson said. “It's what I've

done inthe past and I hope. we ..

éan do-it in the future.’

think we've come a long
way in the last three or four
months from a party that was
really non-existent in the riding
when I first tried to get a
membership to what we were
able to muster together in such
a short period of time,” said the
Social Credit candidate, who
topped D'Arcy 161 to 159 in the
Trail advance poll and 86 to 34
in the Trail hospital poll.

“It shows the people are
very interested in Social Credit
principles.”

“We're willing to continue
to.-work as a party until the

- next election and get stronger

-and more organized,” he said.

“We're’ optimistic that if we ~

give it another try next time we
may be able to convert enough
people in: the riding to our
philosophy.”

“.. Brooks, who describes him-
self as “middle-of-the-rozd” poli,
tically, said the provincial elec-
tion results will probably en-
éourage the Social Credit party
*to:-be more involved with a
etoss-section of the -people of
the province.” He agreed with
Premier Bill Bennett's state-
ments after the election that
the government should work to
improve labor relations in B.C, _

‘=> Meanwhile, he said, Ross-
land-Trail Socreds will work
steadily until the next election
on trying to reduce the un-
decided vote.

"Of those undecided, 90’

per cent of them would decide if

somebody approached them
sometime during the next three
years to get involved with the
party and ask them to join the
party,” Brooks said.

Drown, a 24-year-old Cas-
tlegar radio newsman, admit-
ted his at “com:

“With in excess of 800

totem pole.”

“But looking on the optj-
mistic side of things, first of all
1 was the first candidate in 16
years to..run in Rossland-
Trail for the PCs," he added.
“And. for the first. time the
people had what I considered to
be a viable -third alternative
and they gave me roughly six
per cent of the popular vote.”

Six per cent, Drown noted,
was approximately one per cent
above the overall provincial
vote for the Tories, “indicatil

that 800. or
more people in this riding are

dissatisfied with the
right and the left.”

“I'm saddened by certain
polling stations in. the ‘results,
but ‘a number of factors could
be involved there,” Drown said.
“Maybe I didn't put enough
effort-into that specific area or
maybe they were so polarized
that it couldn't’ have helped’
anyway.” s ‘

Although he said Bennett's

were more polarized, he said
Rossland-Trail “would certainly
rank in the top five.” ,

Contacted onelection night,
D'Arcy described his bid for
re-election as.“a challenging
and exciting campaign but a bit
of a gruelling one too.”

Commenting on the failure
of Drown and other PC candi-
dates to attract strong support,
he agreed there were only two
major parties in B.C. in the
election, but indicated that it
did not necessarily reflect
polarization.

“-“I've always ‘said. there’s
not nearly as much difference :
between the two major’ parties
in B.C. as the more zealous
adherents of the party would
have us believe,” he said.

Out of 22,402 eligible vot-
ers 15,746 showed up at the
polls, representing a -70.28-per-

cent turnout — down about two -

per cent from the 1975 election.
