The demand for land and other resources also runs high, so it is very important that special high-use wildlife lands be set aside or pur chased Purdy delivered an address to 450 wildlife enthusiasts at Kootenay Big Game Ba Trail on March 4, Purdy called on all present to direct their efforts towards protecting the land base for integrated resource use and not to dwell on the emotional issues, but to beware of the dammers, ditchers and real estate developers: “They are the real threat to our wildlife resource,” he said Present The media often focus on the har vesting off wildlife, while at the same time, marshes are being drained, new herbicides—and- pesticides are being used, rivers are being dammed, range lands are being over used, prime farm land is being converted to still more |highways, housing developments and ‘shopping centres, Purdy said: The Kootenay Wildlife Heritage Fund reflects the commitment which local sportsmen have made towards securing the wildlife resource base, he said. The fund is now in its ninth year of activity. It is the outcome of a long debate among wildlife users who have decided on a course which will extend benefits to other resource users, as well astheirown. The Heritage fund has been involved in the acquisition of some 8,000 acres of wildlife habitat in the Kootenays and has enhanced more than 5,300 acres of wintering r involved in several wildlife tran slocation projects, Purdy said. The bighorn sheep project near Castlegar is one such example. ' “The Kootenay Wildlife Heritage fund is a part of a major step toward and has been achieving better overall resource use in one of the most productive wildlife areas in North America, ”’ Purdy said Our ovjective is secure the future for wildlife, he said “We must continue to show com mitment and leadership, the kind of commitment shown by the Castlegar and_District Wildlife Association will ensure the continued success of our Kootenay Wildlife Heritage Fund and our wildlife resources,"” Purdy said ALL TYPES OF COMMERCIAL PRINTING * Letterheads * Envelopes * Brochures ® Raffle Tickets Castlegar News 197 Columbia Ave. — 365-7266 (FALCON PAINTING & DECORATING AVENUE 2649 FOURTH Squadron offers course The Castlegar branch of the Canadian Power and Sail Squadron is planning to hold workshops of two or three sessions on the proper and cour- teous use of VHF radio and to prepare students for their tificate. If enough interest is shown in the workshops, they will be offered at the end of April, said Gwilym Hughes, training officer for the Castlegar Squadron. The CB radio, and the VHF radio, are both commonly used as a means of keeping in touch, and of getting in- formation, and each has its own par ticular qualities. The lower-powered CB is useful operator's cer- over short distances, and does not requirean operator's ‘certificate, but does require a station licence issued by the federal Ministry of Com- munications Since it-ean-be-tsed-om land or over water, it is popular with sportsmen and with anyone travelling the highway The higher-powered 25 watt VHF has a much greater range and is not subject to interference. A VHP land-use station licence is issued with a specific frequency However, VHF marine radios have a number of frequencies assigned by the MOC. An operator requires a radio: telephone operator's restricted . cer tificate, which is issued only after an examination by the MOC The marine radio has an assigned listening and calling channel (No. 16). Because there is also the emergency channel, there must be a. corrgct procedure for further conversatifn The illegal use of a VHF marine radio is subject to a stiff fine and confiscation of the radio.
