At least one pet store in Greater Vancouver is taking orders for pur- chase of Vietnamese pot belly pigs. The pigs are being bred by the Hatch family in suburban Langley and the first litter for the B.C. market is expec ted in late November or early Decem- ber The pot belly pigs are of the miniature variety and come with a $1,000 to $3,000 price-tag. One store owner, Marjorie MacKay, says she expects the steep price won't deter people from buying them. “People who want a pet that is unique without being exotic will love these pigs,” said Mackay. ‘They're small, carry no odor, are clean, easy to care for, affectionate and smart. They can be housebroken and will eat anything, from dog food to fruit."

(CP) — Voters in the sprawling riding of Cariboo will go to the polls on Sept. 20 in a byelection to name a successor to the late Alex Fraser, premier Bill Van- der Zalm said today. Bill Vander Zalm, flanked by Social Credit candidate Joe Wark at a down. town hotel, called the byelection shor. tly after announcing that 100 Mile House will be home to a new $60- million wood-products plant Fraser, a tongtime Socred member who trounced his opponents in every election since he was first elected in 1969, died of throat cancer May 9 in his home town of Quesnel.

The government holds the copyright Perry, the NDP member for Van couver-Point Grey who acquired a copy of the one-minute video, said the video should not be shelved because of the premier’s moral beliefs. He has given the video to Festival bilms, a Canadian film distribution company, torrelease later this week “The government, for purely ar bitrary reasons, has censored this film in the most repugnant possible way and it’s about time British Columbians started getting some value for the $100,000 they spent on this film,’* said Perry “I feel this film belongs to the people of B.C., in particular it belongs to the young people of B.C., and it’s time to get it out in the theatres.” Leonard Schein, vice-president of Festival Films, said the video would be aired in Vancouver on Thursday or Friday.

Much of the attack acerbic _ interventions moderator Jack Webster, the onetime Oatmeal Savage of B.C. open-line radio — centred on federal law passed last year allowing police and prosecutors to seize money and property from suspected drug traf fickers and organized crime figures as soonas they are charged If they are eventually acquitted, the goods are returned. But the bar has long objected that pre-trail seizure violates the rights of the accused — as well as stripping defendants of money they might otherwise use to pay their lawyers. “Asa lawyer, they can seize my trust fund,’ complained Glen Orris, a high profile criminal lawyer from Van “There is no presumption of innocence. There is a presumption of guilt.” Brian Greenspan of Toronto, who defended the Canadian branch of a Panamanian bank accused of laun dering drug profits, said the threat of seizure puts enormous pressure on ac cused persons or companies to plead guilty enlivened by from panel couver FREEZE ASSETS Police in collaborating with U.S. authorities. recently froze some $100 million. in assety of the Banco de Ovcidente ot several countries, The Ministry position is to carry on construction until work is stopped, Rocky Valerberg, ministry project manager, said Tuesday Ministry"officials were at the site this morning and project is delayed.

Some $1.2 million of that fine will go to Canada, where prosecutors had originally frozen nearly $16 million in the bank's Toronto branch. Harry Rankin, a longtime maverick in the Vancouver tegal community, Communist member of city and former mayoralty candidate, suggested the emphasis on organized crime figures is hypocritcal “Corporations pay for their lawyers out of the proceeds of crime every day,” said Rankin. “‘Why get so moralistic about the drug trafficker?” The complaints were summarily rejected by a pair of panelists — Van. couver police chief Bob Stewart and former B.C. attorney general Brian Smith. Both pointed out that accused people can appeal to the courts to have the freeze orders rescinded And there are provisions for courts to pay legitimate expenses to defence lawyers out of frozen funds. Matthew Pavone, head of a U.S federal drug task force in San Fra cisco, said the American experien shows there would be no hope of seizing ill-gotten gains if prosecutors had to wait for conviction “These proceeds are not likely to be around after several months of pre trial proceedings,” he said Orris, who was among the defence lawyers for the Squamish Five on charges of terrorist bombings of a Lit ton Industries defence plant and B.C Hydro facilities, suggested the problem of presumed guilt extends far beyond politically sensitive cases.
