But the misuse about
which area dairymen are
concerned is not related to
“whether they're growing
corn on it or milking cows on
it,” he said. Misuse arises
mostly from owners treating
the farmland as only an
investment, he said.

The show inspired Kauf-
man to organize a WARP

all she'd heard at bridge

were “complaints about food
prices, money, money,

meeting, dubbing it the

As Kaufman sat alone in
the church hall again, almost
ready to give up, Trail resi-
dent Eileen Pedersen poked
her head through the door.
She wanted to do something
about food prices, even if no-
body else did. She wanted to
get involved. Welcome to

Pedersen told her

friends, until WARP’s wob-

varying degrees of involve-
ment and enthusiasm.

Ontario's boycott list until
they finally decided to strike
out on their own, boycotting

Largely.due to the pub-

receiving, WARP chapters
began in the Okanagan, on
the Island, and on the Lower
Mainland, but of the dozen or

80 groups around the prov-
ince, the Trail-Rossland-Cas-

most vocal.

At her own expense,
Kaufman ordered 1,000
bright orange WARP but-
tons she was sure area resi-
dents would wear. Wrong,
again. Today, Kaufman ad-
mits she’s still got “bagfuls,”
although she has unloaded
several hundred.

You might think all this
means WARP is a flop. Quite
the contrary.

Twice monthly, the 7

plucky band of women meet
at coordinator Jo Wild's
house in Rossland, venting
steam and bashing about
ideas for their next boycott
list. From there, they pro-
ceed to Trail’s Cable 10
studio, perching on lawn
chairs in front of the cam-
eras, carting a coffee table
and plant from Wild's living
room to make the set more
comfortable.
