Beer’s Not ‘Light’
| But Legally Ali Rite

Mr. Justice Frank Collier
of the Federal Court of Canada
tuled Monday that Labatt
Breweries can: sell its new
“Lite” beer without fear of
prosecution.

Justice Collier said the
label on the product clearly
indicates that the beer has a
four-per-cent alcohol content.
There can be no mistake, he
said, that the product is beer,
not “light” beer which by law
may contain --no--more-rthan
2.6-per-cent alcoho! content.

Labatt’s began marketing
the beer last Dec. 15th but
investigators with the federal’
consumer and corporation af-
fairs department placed an
“embargo on the beer the next
day. .

Production was halted but

Mayor Defends

$1.3 Million Parkade.

Mayor Chuck Lakes of
Trail has issued a strong
. defence of his stand in favor of

‘i “pultding a $1.8 million parkade

in the city's downtown,

In a lengthy letter pub-
lished last week in the Trail
Times, the mayor said a park-
ade is virtually the key to a
healthy commercial area, He
warned of the impact on
business‘of the under-construc-
tion Waneta Mall shopping
centre and said yet a second
mall may soon come to the city.

“As the mayor of our city, I
am concerned about the effects
of the shopping mall on the
downtown core and I believe it
is important that we preserve

the downtown core as the heart
of the city and keep it alive and
healthy,” Lakes wrote. .

Lakes outlined the city
contribution toward the park-
ade, including a donation of
$200,000 worth of land and a
$70,000 fund built up from
parking meter collections, And
when the parkade is operating,
the city council has promised an
annual $25,000 donation will be
made to support it,

Wide support for the pro-
posed parkade has also been
claimed by Lakes, He said 90
per cent of those responding to
a chamber of commerce ques-
tionnaire have said they favor a
parkade and would be willing to
pay tax’ to support such a
project.
