Conduct Unbecoming

Moore: You're out of order, Ald. Embree.
Embree: Well, so are you.
Moore: No, you are out of order.
, Embree: You are out of order.
eivie

It was not clty council’s finest hour.

After what was probably its uallest
confrontation In the council chamber In
recent memory, council proceeded fast
Tuesday to pass what was probably its
sillleat motion,

Following some childish bickering be-
tween Mayor Audrey Moore and Ald. Len
Embree, council decided the mayor should
always be addressed as ‘‘your worship” and
then amended the motion to Include the
censure of Embree for behavior which ‘‘is
‘unbecoming to a member of Castlegar city
council, Is contrary to city tradition and
tends to bring the whole council! inta
disrepute.’

As If In response to the abrasive and
bullying manner In which Embree has
conducted himself In discussion of city
planning Issues since Di Moore

polnis of order or throughout the meeting?

‘Was it his normal manner In debate or

his apparel at council meetings council
je

was neither too: vague to accomplish

’ anything or so wide-sweeping as to violate

his rights as an elected official.

Coupled with the ambigulty of the
amendment was the absurd suggestion, that
Embree apologize for his conduct In order to
avoid the censure vote. It is not reasonable
to expect any member of council, even under
threat of ejection from a council meeting, to
admit to an accusation of such sweeping
scope.

In response to Embree’s charge that
Moore was abusing her privilege as meeting
chairman and stifling his participation In
debate, Ald. Jim Gouk pointed out—quite
carrectly—that Embree also had Interrupted
other council members and abused the chair
while chairing meetings.

But neither Gouk nor any other council
member proposed a‘motion setting new

used a minor procedural point as an
opportunity to brandish a readily-avallable
copy of the city’s procedural bylaw and
{hreaten him with removal from the
meeting.

The silliness of the motion and its
amendment was inherent in thelr sheer
Irrelavance. Intreduced by Ald. Albert
Calderbank after one of several arguments
between Moore and Embree over minor
points of order, the motion that the mayor be
addressed as ‘‘your worship’? was of
questionable significance. It did not accord
any further courtesles other than that
salutation to the mayor.

And although It Is difficult to imagine
anything more vindictive and petty than the
confrontation between the mayor and Em-
bree, Ald. Heather Hallett’s motion to
censure his conduct succeeded In surpassing
that standard.

Althqugh Sean Ei almed at Em-
e's

bree’:
In debate, the ‘améndment ‘amounted toa
blanket condemnation of his conduct in
genezal. It did not specify on what point of
order or at what time council found his
behavior unacceptable. Did council object to
his conduct In that first argument over

or reattirming existing ones for
conduct in the council. chambers. Rather
than passing a specific new procedural
motion even Embree might not have
resisted, council members chose Instead to
carry a meaningless one which brought
them into even greater disrepute than that
cited in the Hallett amendment.

Hallett amendment. .

Clearly, Moore's arbitrary threats with
the city’s procedural bylaw and council's
Spontaneous, clumsy attempt at Embree-
bashing rule out the cherge that the move
was ‘premeditated and planned."’ Unfortu-
nately, they do not rule out a trend toward
the bickering, spiteful manner In which a
number of other municipal councils In B.C.
conduct their business.

Nor has council’s performance last
week ruled out further shouting matches of
the same -nature. Jf anything, It has
generated more than enough bitterness and
anger to give birth to another confromtations *..

It Is difficult to see how such! vier-
by ‘a group of elected offictals set i the *
cause of responsible local government. All
council members came out losers In those
decisions.

And.so did the taxpayers who voted
them Into office.

MeVean was telling me a sad
story the other day. It seems a
friend of his was on a: trip
recently and the airline lost his
luggage.

MeVean's friend wound up
in Toronto, but his suitcase
went to Bora Bora. Yes, the
tropic paradise in the south
Pacific.

Isn't that always the way?

luggage? Why should our two-
suiters, overnighters and split-
grain valises have better vaca-
tions than us?

“Buckle your seatbells. We'll be

minutes?”

THE ANSWER IS NE-
ver.

When you and I head for
Saint John, Hamilton (Ont.) or
Grande Prairie, we get there.

But, meanwhile, our lug-
gage is winging across vast
oceans and over magnificent
mountain ranges to Hong Kong,
Buenos Aires, Vienna, Istanbul,
and other places we can never
hope to see, let alone buy a
ticket for.

Surely if the regular car-

London, Ontario, they can do
the same for us.

lives. But the Royal Canadian
Legion was found to be 15 per
cent responsible and ordered to
pay $58,000 into the court for
the children.

“The jury was told that the

is the court decision that the
