No. 8-1965-0 Accidents down 18 per cent By SIMON BIRCH jor Stepped up weatfi enforcement by the RCMP may be the reason for an 18-per-cent decrease in overall traffic accidents in’ the East and West Kootenays this year, the commanding officer of the Nelson RCMP. sub: division said Saturday Speaking at a meeting of the Regional District of Central Kootenay board of directors, Supt. Jim Druchet said the RCMP over the last 18 months has increased road checks, ‘*Coun terAttacks”” against drinking drivers and ‘‘quasi-roadblocks"’ in which police check vehicles fot safety violations He called the drop in accidents *‘a fairly significant decrease.”" “Whether it’s a result of the traffic checks remains to be seen,’ Druchet told regional district directors He said the RCMP is carrying out a practice galling “zoning” in which police concentrate on areas of heavy traffic flow such as from Castlegar to Trail or Castlegar to Grand Forks. “We will zero in on those areas, Druchet said, increasing the RCMP’s visibility and its members awareness of the problems in the areas Primary targets of police are speeders and drinking drivers, Druchet said He said deaths from vehicle acciden ts were “much fewer" this year up un til June 15 at which time 10 people had died from traffic accidents. However, an additional seven people have died since June 15, possibly as a result of in creased traffic during the summer vacation period Five of the seven people who died since Druchet said In other police news, Druchet said the RCMP’s increased visibility in the Slocan Valley has resulted in a $0-per cent decrease in the number of com plaints about crime in the area And the RCMP’s ‘‘success rate’’ in the cases it has handled during the first six months of this year is 92 per cent, he added. Druchet said meetings with valley residents and elected officials, as well as the RCMP’s zoning policy in the area and programs with valley schools have all contributed to the decrease in volumes June 15 were tourists, crime The RCMP also appear poised to contribute to a minor construction boc m in some of the West Kootenay’s small towns. Druchet said the federal government is in the process of securing property in Nakusp for a planned new building for its Nakusp RCMP detachment and is considering building a permanent housing for RCMP members stationed there. The government will also purchase existing residences in New Denver for RCMP members or will build new housing there if suitable quarters can’t be found, Druchet said. He added that the government is also looking for land around Kaslo to build residences for members. nment'’s film agency. Telefilm has strict Canadian content regulations he said, so he assembled an all-Canadian cast and secured Canadian director Charles Jarrott The film was slated to be shot partially in the Kootenays around Castlegar But Telefilm is probably not going to be involved now, Stark said, and since the film is to be backed by an American company it will no longer be a Canadian production anyway. Filming in Yugoslavia would cost $3.5 million less than filming in Canada, he noted As well, Gary Farmer — one of the actors cast for the picture — gave Stark an ultimatum and as of Friday is no longer exclusively bound to the film, Stark said If Farmer takes another part in the next few days, Stark said he will likely cast an American or British actor for the part because he said there are no other actors of Farmer's calibre in Canada Several British and American actors were interested in the part when the film was cast, Stark said, but he reser- ved the role for a Canadian. Stark had been concerned his con- tract with Hemdale — the American company set to distribute the film in the U.S. — would be cancelled if any of the actors, who are in demand for other roles, pulled out of the project. But Stark said Hemdale only expects actors of similar stature to be cast in continued on poge A2 Celgar told to treat water By CasNews Staff Celgar Pulp Co. has advised its em ployees not to drink untreated water at the mill and is looking into a water decontamination system five months after receiving this year’s water safety guidelines from the Central Kootenay Health Unit. In a bulletin to its employees dated July 14, 1989, the company advises that “‘the Ministry of Health has recommended that all surface water used for drinking be treated (or boiled) prior to use.” Coolers of drinking water will be available ‘‘as a temporary measure’* while the company is ‘‘actively in- vestigating alternatives to provide mill drinking water that meets Ministry of Health standards, ’’ the bulletinsays.

The conference’s theme emphasized that schools can’t be everyone's answer to social problems and some of the burden of dealing with changes in our society must be given back to the community,” said Kinakin who atténded the Saskatoon meeting Otherwise, schools become “‘places of social change and stop being places of education,” he said. ‘*Schools can’t be surrogate parents.”” One of the motions advocated the creation of a childrén’s department under Health and Welfare Canada, essentially to bring children who are having problems in school together with organizations such as the Boy Scouts that can provide help and support, Kinakin said He said he is in favor of the idea in principle because no one speaks for children nationally But such a program would be better implemented at the local level because individual boards know their studen tsandtheir-community.organizations best, Kinakin said He added that the West Kootenay Education Commit tee — made up of education committee chairmen of the area school districts — is considering jointly hiring a social worker todo that job in this area The CSTA also passed motions asking for thé'federal government to fund multicultural workers and English-as a-second-language students, Kinakin said Both motions recognize the impact on schools by the recent influx of immigrants, especially from Asia, Kinakin said, adding that Ontario and B.C. are being affected most strongly right now but it’s likely to affect all of Canada eventually Multicultural workers would work with immigrant families, helping them adjust to a new culture and providing a means for them to understand and become in volved in their community and the school system, ding to background material on the motion accor Funding for ESL students would make the federal government acknowledge it has a responsibility to all im migrants, not just adults, Kinakin said “Phe government needs to realize it's not only the per son coming to Canada but the children of that person,”” he said Castlegar currently has 25 ESL students, assistant superintendent Lach Farrell said. They range non-English-speaking children to those who have been in Canada for several years ahd require only periodic assistan: ce from ESL instructor Sally Williams, he said The CSTA also passed a motion requesting the assoc iation set up a task force to develop guidelines for school from boards, and principals in interpreting the legality of child custody orders. Schools are caught in the middle when divorééd or estranged parents ask to take a child from school, putting the principal in the position of saying yes or no, Kinakin said Other motions passed at the meeting included a request of Ottawa that copyright laws be waived when an artist’s material is being used strictly for classroom pur- poses, acall for an in-depth study of truancy, and a request that schaol boards do their part for the environment and consider buying paper products from companies that use unbleached and dioxin-free paper, Kinakin said. The motion on paper products shows ‘‘the real depth of feeling’’ for the environment by trustees who tend to be conservative, Kinakin said. He added that he could see courses on the environment and the teaching of respect for nature being integrated into the core curriculum in the next few years. All the motions passed at the conference will become policies of the CSTA and will eventually be taken up with the various government departments involved, Kinakin said The motions on truancy, multicultural workers and a school’s position in custody matters are all likely to see some action by Ottawa, he said, but the copyright motion is “doubtful."” continued on page A2 Local reps tout equality By CLAUDETTESANDECKI Staff Writer Policy changes to hiring practices may be in order for the Castlegar school district, school board chairman Gordon Turner said after attending a workshop on sexual equality at the administrative level during the Canadian School Trustees Association conference earlier this month in Saskatoon Castlegar has no women in administration and Deb ‘Chmara, a teacher at Kinnaird Junior secondary school, is the first woman administrative trainee in the history of the school district, said Castlegar school trustee Mickey Kinakin who also attended the CSTA conference, Turner said the workshop instructor pointed out that there are men and women teachers but principals are usually men — and are the people with the ultimate authority ““What are young people to assume? That men lead and women will never be leaders?"’ Turner said. Both Turner and Kinakin said they plan to bring up the subject of encouraging more women to aspire to administration at a fall board meeting Turner also attended a workshop on French im- mersion and said he was told 2,000 immersion teachers continued on poge AZ
