Supreme Court Justice Al- bert Mackoff. The libel was contained in a constituency newsletter written by Stupich, in which the Nanaimo member of the legislature alleged Bonnett had appeared drunk in the house. 4A simple apology and ad- mission of wrong would have been sufficient,” Bennett said. “Prior to this matter damage going to trial I would have accepted such an apology and the ordeal of the trail would have been avoided.” “I was fighting for a prin- ciple and there can be no peice tag on that. There comes a time when one has to say enough, to stand up and fight for what you know to be true and decent.” Stupich won't comment on the decision until he has read the judge's decision and con- sulted with his lawyer, Alex MacDonald, the Vancouver East MLA and former at- torney-general. The events leading up to the trial began last July when Bennett told a reporter that night sittings of the leg- islature were’ cancelicd be- cause “MLAs don't pour scotch on their cornflakes.” The premier told the court during the four-day trial in May that the remark was in- CROWD DRAWER at this year’s Castlegar SunFest is the RCMP Musical Ride which did not have seating room for f the termendous crowd lit attracted lost night.
