Box 333, Maple Ridge 463-3333 ww Stop cuts, victorious Ghiz tells Ottawa CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) — Liber. al Premier Joe Ghiz isn't willing to share any credit with: Ottawa for his huge election win, but neither is he opposed to using the decisive victory to fight federal spending cuts. “T would like to think that the federal government will look at the results in Princé Edward Island and say to themselves that what they're doing is not in the best interests of Canada,"’ said Ghiz, who led the — WANTED — CLEAN COTTON RAGS Castlégar 197 Columbia Ave; Castlegar News Liberals to a landslide win, capturing 30 of 32 seats in the legislature in Monday's election The people in the have-not parts of this country are going to rise up and stand tall for their rights and say what is happening in. Ottawa is simply unacceptable to the have-not parts of this country.’ Ghiz, 44, said in an interview Tuesday he doubted that federal budget cuts, including plans to close Canadian Forces Base summerside, made a difference in the clection results But he acknowledged that the level of popular support for the Liberals — roughly 60 per cent compared to 36 per cent for the Tories and four per cent for the NDP — was probably a message to Ottawa, which has also changed unemployment insurance ru les and cut regional development spending.

MAIN ENTRANCE 1st FEDERAL FINANCIAL CORP. — LICENSED AND CONTRACTED AUCTIONEER — The Liberals took nine more seats than in the 1986 election that brought them to power, making it the largest majority on the Island since 1935 when the party swept all the seats. The Tories won two seats and the New Democratic Party was shut out again, having never won an Island seat federally or provincially LITTLE CRITICISM Since becoming premier, Ghiz, a lawyer, has faced relatively little criticism apart from farmers’ compla- ints about policies affecting potatoes and hogs He got an unexpected boost from the federal budget, released days before the election call. A plan to close the Island's only military base, eliminating up to 1,300 jobs and removing $60 million from the prov incial economy, dogged provincial Tories on the campaign trail The Conservatives, led by former MP Mel Gass, were all but wiped out of the house. Gass, 50, spent almost 10 years in the Commons but won't get to sit in the provincial house after losing his bid by nearly 1,200 votes. Gass said he is committed to leading the party for years ahead ‘I don't like to lay blame on anybody's shoulders but the budget certainly was one of the major problems that we had,”" said Gass Briefly Criminals to pay, Smith says VICTORIA (CP) — Legislation will be introduced soon to allow the proceeds of crime to be. used for improved law enforcement, Attorney General Bud Smith said. He told a i meeting in Esqui Port Renfrew the legislation, expected in two weeks, will allow the money to be dsed directly by police forces for law enforcement rather than go into general revenue. “*Take the bounty of the criminal and direct it back to the police so they can catch more criminals with their own money,"" he said “Take the proceeds of crime and use it for more law. enforcement and more policing and target it to that purpose.”’ The attorney general said the legislation will be an innovative companion bill to federal legislation introduced last year and will help create a greater system of law and order in British Columbia Smith said the revenue would come from crimes involving drugs, fraud and organized theft rings. Animal carcasses piling up ANCHORAGE (AP) — Dead animals are piling up in refrigerated trailers on the coast as officials collect evidence of the vast damage caused by the oil spilled from the tanker Exxon Valdez. The carcasses of 22,818 migratory birds, 733 sea ottets and SI birds of prey — most of them bald eagles — had been collected, tagged and stored at four coastal cities. “It's a morbid milestone we have reached this week,"’ said Walter Stieglitz, Alaska regional director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. ‘More than two months after the oil spill from the Exxon Valdez, we are still counting its victims."’ Boundary process criticized VICTORIA (CP) — Members of the legislature were critical Tuesday of electoral officials who say it will take nine months to draw new riding boundaries. “‘It's like being held hostage by HAL,"’ New Democrat Grodon Hansen said in a reference to the mad computer in the film 2001, A Space Odyssey. “I can’t believe it takes as long as it does to create a human being to change the boundaries."* Former B.C. Supreme Court Justice Beverly McLachlin ruled in April the electoral boundaries were unfair and should be changed as soon as possible, Asteroid said not dangerous GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — An asteroid will pass by Earth about 13 million kilometres away this Saturday, but it presents no danger to the planet, astronomers say The asteroid, estimated to be 1.6 to 3.2 kilometres across, may be visible as a faint star and will grow brighter as it approaches at 32 kilometres per second, astronomer Billy Cooke said in a statement from the University of Florida It will be the closest approach since March 23 when an asteroid came within 720,000 kilometres of Earth — considered a near miss in astronomical terms Indiana Jones beats record HOLLYWOOD (AP) — Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade bushwhacked moviegoers in its first weekend, selling a record $46.9 million US worth of tickets in six days in the United States.
