A Voice of the People,

- Letter Misleading

Editor, Castlegar News:

A letter was printed in
your paper of May 3, 1979
under the Voice of People
column. The letter was very
misleading to the average read-
er of your paper.

The article was ‘entitled
“Where's the Logic?” and was
signed ."A Concerned Citizen” -
‘unidentified. Tho writer ex-
pressed concern about a poli-
tical party having identification
signs on the BCGEU head-

‘quarters in Nelson, B.C.

I wish to set the record
straight to the writer, and to
your readers. 101 Baker St.,
Nelson, is a multi-tenant build-

ing. The building is called West.

Kootenay, Labor Centre not

* BCGEU Headquarters.

The building is in the
process of being purchased by
three major shareholders — the

‘W.A., Nelson-Trail Labor

Council and B.C. Government

Union, Indeed an

‘member of the

wa:
Castlegar Kiwanis Club with president Malcolm Scott presen-
ting him with a club button. He was also given a hat which

club members wear while taking part in wor

parties.

Recreation System Established

> Agreement has beenreach-

éd with B.C. Hydro to provide a

gystem of provincial parks,

tharine access areas and boat

launches on the Arrow reser-
ir.

+, This statement was re-
_ leased jointly during the latter
part of April by Lands, Parks
and Housing Minister James R.
Chabot and Mrs. Pat Jordon,
MLA for North Okanagan.

The establishment of this

ensive and important ree- .

gation system on the Arrow

reservoir has been made pos-
sible through the co-operation
of B.C. Hydro, as part of its
development program under
the Columbia River Treaty.

Funding for development
and some maintenance of these
facilities is being provided by
B.C. Hydro as part of mitiga-
tion and compensation for the
“flooding of the Arrow reser-
voir, and it is expected that full
development of the park -sys-
tem will be completed during
the next five years.

The provisions of the set-

tlement contain the following
major thrusts:

e Four small parks to be
established at Burton, Fau-
quier, Edgewood and Shelter
Bay to provide modern boat
launch facilities. Construction
of these facilities by B.C. Hydro
is underway and will be com-
pleted this year;

e Improvement of ‘facili-
ties at two existing provincial
parks — Blanket Creek at the
north end and Syringa Creek at
the south end of the reservoir;

The terms of the settle-
ment allocate over $800,000 by
Hydro for the capital develop-
ment on an as required basis
until 1985. The operation of
these facilities will be the
ly of the provincial
Parks Branch.

added, will be of significant

to exercise freedom of right-to- |

The present. government

this includes any union. mem-

I have been a BCGEU

trying to mislead your readers,
His’ lack of ideritification is
