Emergency planning

The federal Liberal cabinet
has put into law, by order-
in-council, an emergency
planning order which has
farreaching consequences
says Bob Brisco president of
the Kootenay West Progres-
sive Conservative Associ-
ation Monday.

He feels the issue is so
important he has invited
Benno Friesen MP for Sur-
rey-White Rock, who has
been a leading critic on the
Emergency Planning Order
since it first became known,
to speak at public meetings.
The meetings are to be held
this evening (Wednesday) at
eight in the Bosun Hall, in
New Denver and Thursday
at 8 p.m. at the Warfield
Community Centre.

In explaining his concerns
Brisco said, “For example,
the minister of emp

for Canada's shame —'the in-
ternment of the Japanese,”
the cabinet was making pro-
visions for the release of
prisoners from jails in order
to provide for the establish-
ment of internment camps.

“The spectre of internment
camps should mean some-
thing to the people of New
Denver,” Brisco said. “The
idea of releasing certain pris-
oners from jail in order to
make room for civilians is
mind-boggling. When Solici-
tor-General Kaplan was
asked which type of prisoner
was to be released, Kaplan

didn’t know.” “Will it be the .

petty thieves and small time
crooks, or drug pushers, or
rapists, or murderers?”
asked Brisco,

Brisco said that the docu-
ment became law by Order-
in-Council (a cabinet order
without reference to parlia-
ment). “I can understand the
need for many of the pro-
visions in time of war but the
majority of the provisions

apply in what the govern- ~

ment describes as ‘an ab-
normal situation,’ and not in
time of war" said Brisco.

VANCOUVER (CP) — The

That condition was ob-
tained by lawyer Jack Giles,
representing the Vancouver
archdiocese and Ian Charles
Stuart, principal of St. Thom-
as Aquinas High School.

Caldwell taught at the
school for five years but her
teaching contact was not re-
newed at the end of 1978
after she had married a div-

were rejected.

Caldwell then went to the
B.C. Supreme Court, where
Justice Martin Toy ruled that
her complaint was justified
and ordered the boards to
reconsider the case.

He said the board was
wrong in finding that religion
or marital status was a bona
fide qualification.

The archdiocese and Stu-
art appealed and the B.C.
Court of Appeal found Cald-
well was not dismissed for
religious. grounds but for
“cause based on religion.”

The B.C. Court of Appeal
allowed the appeal to the Su-

preme Court of Canada but
Giles argued that it is a test
case and because the only
justification is public inter-
est, the appeal should not be
conducted at the expense of
the church,

He obtained an under-
taking that the Human
Rights Board woild pay all
costs on a “solicitor and
client” basis, the highest
legal cost tariff which means
that the’ expenses of the
church will be completely de-
frayed on a win or lose basis.

The board agrees that the
case raises questions of pub-
lic interest under the code.

Castro interviewed

Haig’s views differ

.WASHINGTON — Cuban
President Fidel Castro says
President Reagan's Carib-
bean Basin initiative is an at-
tempt to turn that entire
region into another Puerto
Rico, where American-spon-
sored development efforts
have “failed totally and ab-
‘solutely.”

In a previously unpub-
lished interview on March 26,
a partial text of which was
released Saturday, Castro
said the countries of Central
America and the Caribbean
would be better off if they
followed the Cuban model
rather than relying on the
Reagan program.

Castro's glowing account of
the achievements of his rev-
olution, particularly in health
and education, contrasted
sharply with State Secretary
Alexander Haig’s-statement
last week that’ Cuba is an
“economic shambles.”

Haig said Cuba's economic
problems are such that Cas-
tro is “anguishing” over
whether he should align him-
self more with the West at
the expense of his close ties
with the Soviet Union.

In the interview, Castro
indicated his 28-year experi-
ment has worked well.

“Cuba, without any Alli-
ance for Progress, without
any Caribbean Basin imiti-
ative, has a better social

on the stage of the school

told to return to classes at
Grandview Elementary
School today even though
officials have not discovered
the source of carbon mono-
xide which made students
sick last week.

Mel Graves, superinten-
dent of the Grandview school
division, Tuesday said the
Grandview school board has
decided to reopen the school
in this town about 870 kil-
ometres northwest of Win-
nipeg.

Graves had earlier said
students’ would stay home
until the source of the carbon
monoxide was found. About
100 students were taken to
hospital from a school festival
last week suffering from
headaches, dizziness, nausea
and faintness.

MONTREAL (CP) —
dio-Canada and‘ the news-
paper Le Devoir reported
today that Quebec Liberal
Leader Claude Ryan plans to
resign before the end of the
current session of the Quebec
national assembly.

The report said Ryan will

Liberal member for Vaudre-

Although blood tests taken
Thursday showed three stu-
dents had traces of carbon
monoxide in their blood, new
tests Monday and Tuesday
-showed no abnormal levels of
the gas, Graves said.

Dr. Eric Sigurdson, re-
gional medical health officer,
said additional tests of the
school's heating and ventil-
ation systems have confirm-
ed there is no carbon monox-
ide left in the building.

He said it is safe for the
children to return, but the air
in the building will be moni-
tored for some time.

Sigurdson said officials be-
Neve exhaust fumes . from
cars and buses outside the
school might have been fun-
neled into one of the school's
main air intake vents and
into the auditorium.

Another possible source of
the gas might be furnace ex-
haust fumes sucked back into
the building, he said.

Carbon monoxide: poison-
ing was ruled out-as the
cause of the illness initially —
health officials thought the
students had been overcome
by heat stroke — until the
first blood tests showed
traces of the gas.
