Justice Collier said the label on the product clearly indicates that the beer has a four-per-cent alcohol content. There can be no mistake, he said, that the product is beer, not “light” beer which by law may contain --no--more-rthan 2.6-per-cent alcoho! content.

Labatt’s began marketing the beer last Dec. 15th but investigators with the federal’ consumer and corporation af- fairs department placed an “embargo on the beer the next day. .

Mayor Chuck Lakes of Trail has issued a strong . defence of his stand in favor of

‘i “pultding a $1.8 million parkade

in the city's downtown,

In a lengthy letter pub- lished last week in the Trail Times, the mayor said a park- ade is virtually the key to a healthy commercial area, He warned of the impact on business‘of the under-construc- tion Waneta Mall shopping centre and said yet a second mall may soon come to the city.

“As the mayor of our city, I am concerned about the effects of the shopping mall on the downtown core and I believe it is important that we preserve

the downtown core as the heart of the city and keep it alive and healthy,” Lakes wrote. .

Lakes outlined the city contribution toward the park- ade, including a donation of $200,000 worth of land and a $70,000 fund built up from parking meter collections, And when the parkade is operating, the city council has promised an annual $25,000 donation will be made to support it,

Wide support for the pro- posed parkade has also been claimed by Lakes, He said 90 per cent of those responding to a chamber of commerce ques- tionnaire have said they favor a parkade and would be willing to pay tax’ to support such a project.
