Local PSAC workers back on job

Thomas Bink
NEWS REPORTER

About 10 members of the Pub-
lic Service Alliance of Canada
picketed the Castlegar airport
Monday in hopes of raising local

Monday said they were reluctant
to go back to work without an
agreement, and said they would
not work at regular high levels.
“They get back what they're
giving us,” said Greg Patterson, a

awareness of their ‘de-
mands.

The strike action came just two
days before PSAC and the federal
government agreed there will be
no further strikes while negotia-
tions were underway.

The government had threat-
ened to pass legislation forcing
strikers back to work before the
two sides hammered out a deal
late Tuesday.

However, strikers at the airport

@ New housing couldn't
have come at a better time

The building of a 100-unit stu-
dent residence complex at Selkirk
College’s Castlegar campus
couldn't come at a better time be-
cause of an increase in registra-
tion this year, Selkirk information
officer Joe Lintz said Tuesday.

Lintz said enrolment at the col-
lege is up to 1,661 full- and part-
time students, with 1,141 at the

campus alone.

He said enrolment should sur-
pass the 1,749 total recorded last
year by the end of October. Lintz
said enrolment is higher although
there are fewer programs.

“We've really done well consid-
ering we lost three or four pro-
grams,” Lintz said.

Selkirk’s one-year graphic de-
sign program and its first-year
electronics program were among

gator in Nelson. “Ifthey give noth-
ing, they get nothing.”

But West Kootenay area strike
coordinator Sheila said
employees will go back to work
without incident.

“The government has now said
they are willing to begin negotiat-

ithout any

But Shortridge said if negotia-
tions should break down, workers
will strike again.

About 110,000 federal employ-
ees nationwide went on strike last
week, although they have been
without a contract since June.

The government wants the
union to accept its proposal to
freeze public sector salaries this
year and limit increases to three
per cent in 1992 and 1993. The
union says that isn't acceptable.

“We are challenging the gov-
hanpreced because they are not will-

ing

Shortridge said. ” ePhat's what we
wanted. We're going back to work
willingly.”

The graphic arts program was
dropped in hopes of having a two-
year graphic communications pro-
gram by the fall of 1992, Lintz

He added that a proposed $3.8
million school expansion, which
recently 1 received Treasury Board

pproval, would help Tew the
growing enrolment.

The proposed wing would con-
sist of seven , a lecture
theater and much needed office
and locker space.

“Students are-currently dou-
bling up in lockers,” Lintz said.
“We could really use the extra

Meanwhile, construction on the
$1.95 million student residence
continues at the Castlegar cam-

pus.

“Construction is moving very
rapidly,” Lintz said..“We antici-
pate moving some students in by
the end of January.”

jate a fair and equi-

tania contract,” Shortridge said.
Although the national civil ser-
vants strike had delayed flights

and cross-border traffic across the
country, only Castlegar Airport
and the Environment Canada of-
fice there were affected by the dis-
pute.

But the government has
deemed services in those areas as
essential, and employees were
therefore unable to strike.

Kootenay West-Revelstoke MP
Lyle Kristiansen joined the strik-
ers on the picket line at the airport
Monday.

“It was a great show of sup-
port,” said Wenda Plant, local
president of the Canadian Em-
pl and Immigrati
Union, which is a unit of the
PSAC.

Looking good: The 100-unit student residence complex at
Selkirk College has started to take shape. School officials
expect students to start moving in by January.

Proposed
RCMP deal
‘excellent’

Donna Bertrand
NEWS REPORTER

An agreement proposing a
20-year contract for RCMP ser-
vices should be ratified without
any hitches, Ald. Lawrence
Chernoff said ‘Tuesday.

“I don’t have any doubts
about it at all,” he said.

‘I think for the community
it’s excellent. And from what the
government was negotiating be-
fore, this i is a far cry from that
for sure.”

The federal government
shares RCMP costs with munic-
ipalities based on population.
Negotiations after the previ
10-year contract expired on
March 31 failed mostly because
the federal government was
proposing an increase in the
municipal

In the meantime, the federal
government signed an interim,
one-year contract with the same
terms as the expired contract.

A federal government news
release says the cost-share ra-
tios in the existing agreement
will stay the same for the full 20
years of the proposed contract.

It also offers a review of cost-

But Reiner Augustine, opera-

Audrey Moore is out of town,
said that will allow municipali-

costs that come with increasing

and children.

“The courts are not the place to
discuss these issues,” she said.

The group hopes to monitor
SFP’s logging of the area with rep-
