A News/Mirror Pre-Election Feature bf continued from Page C2 { “Phil Brooks is taking the qld motherhood issue of respon- give government and Chris D‘Arcy's taken the same ap- proach. All I'm saying is let's get back to more specifics right here in the constituency.” =: Of the 10 points already Jaid out in the Drown platform Gnly one or two have even been reflected by Chris D'Arcy and Phil Brooks “has yet to even make mention of them,”. the Tory candidate said. He expects his image as a relative newcomer to the area will be outweighed by the familiarity with Rossland-Trail issues he gained in his coverage of the riding since December, 1977, “I think I've gone to more meetings in the past year in this constituency than Phil Brooks will attend in a life- time," he says, Drown proposes to use his media expertise at Rossland- Trail to bring such issues as uranium exploration and con- flict between the Doukhobor. and Freedomite sects “to the attention of the rest of the province in the fastest method possible. He cites the B.C. tourism ministry film Valley of 1,000 Peaks, which deleted any reference to the Kootenays and Tourism Minister Elwood Veitch was not prepared to spend $6,000 to correct, as another example. “Chris D'Arcy should have got on the bit right then and brought that to the attention not only of the government but also through the media,” he says. “The media are there in Victoria. They should be used’ to the fullest extent." It comes back trying to intimidat: Maintaining closer contact with the riding and meeting conatituents on a more regular basis is, he says, also crucial to better representatiun, “I noticed the other day Chris D'Arcy was saying he would have to start doing some door-knocking,” he says. “This should be taking place when you're an MLA. You don't start doing that*just when election time comes around, “You get out and meet your people all the time.

Kootenay Man Atiends Ontario Winter Camp Kootenay Boundary: -! Visitors’ Asa'n. Release A Kootenay resident and member of the Kootenay Boun- dary Visitors’ Association, was Kandalore, north of Toronto, where the Winter Woodsman. ship Pilot Project was held March 7 to 12, chosen as one of two British Columbians to attend the re- cent Winter Camping vonfer- ence, held in Ontario. Zan Mautner, director of Camp Kootenai at Argenta, B.C., was one of British Colum- bia’s two delegates to Camp ity-three persons rep- resenting the majority of Cana- dian provinces met there to discuss and to promote winter camping and to encourage year- round outdoor programs.

Things like: “perhaps the second move- ment is a bit subducd;"* or, “Yes, that’s holding together nicely,” or, ‘*don’t you think the andante allegro is a bit turgid?” When you don’t know an andante from an allegro, if one were to crawl out of your soup, it seems to do the trick. : That worked pretty well when the old girl had twenty- odd students.

She'd be satisfied that 1 was listening and +, would:.go. right ahead and have the kid play the piece the way she knew it should be . played. But this time around, she doesn’t have the same old confidence, ‘because she's been away from it so long. She makes me actually listen, instead of just appearing to. When I question the speed of a piece, she plays it at four different speeds, and forces me to make a judgment.

"Many of the items and issues that have come out to me travelling around in this cam- paign’ point to. the. fact that those things have not been handled by anyone, : “The actual input from people .in the area to the government hasn't taken place, ‘They've been relying on dealing directly with the civil servant or the paid person and there- fore their political input is not there.” + In the absence of a third candidate to disrupt the solid Polarization of NDP and Socred votes, he’ says, there exists “only a very.small percentage of people who are sitting on the fence — probably 10 to 15 per cent.” : A significant portion of the Social Credit gains expected Jin Nelson will be from labor union members, he predicts. “Though ‘they wouldn't openly come out and say they're supporting Social Cred- it I think that when they get to the ballot box there will be some who will change. I have found a much softer approach from even the hard-line NDP than was in the last election.

The job is obvious, it has to be done.” ‘ His qualifications for the job, in addition to six years experience as a City of Nelson alderman, two years’ experi- ence as chairman of the Region- al District of Central Kootenay board and his present member- ship on the Municipal Financing Authority, include'a reputation for being “definite and to the Credit governme: lived in the community most of my life," says Coleman, who describes himself as a “free- lance businessman.” “I have built a business from hard work and a tool box and. $65 to a fairly reasonable asset which I sold to my employees, I think I would say I'm able. to spend the free time that's necessary to do it” + “Naturally when you're in municipal governments you must have connections and relations with more. senior governments, and I've been involved with many of the departments. of. government particularly because I'm an alderman. q “Icertainly d the nt, That reinforces the position of any candidate." : there's been no representation, They're not getting their mes- “sage in there.” Aside from representation, Coleman says, the main election issue is the B.C. economy and how the Social Credit govern- ment has affected it in the past three years, a “I think people have to look at the performance.
