But there is some fear that what the government has done to the BCTF that it’s possible that they might consider doing the same thing to us down the road,” said Howard.

Ina newsletter, the College-Institute Educator's Association of B.C. says the new labor legislation “makes free collective bargaining impossible and in effect deprives most unions — par- ticularly those in the public sector — of the right to strike.”

It adds that Bill 19 voids many collective agreement provisions con- cerning the recognition and support of other unions.

“Bill 19 removes the restrictions on employers communication directly with individual union members during certification, decertification and bar. gaining processes. Non-union members will now be able to participate in ratification votes,” says the newsletter.

It adds that because the new labor legislation allows the provincial gov ernment to override collective agree ments, the provincial government is trying to “erode contracts in the public sector, in particular where most em- ployers are created by statute.”

The newsletter says that the “broad disciplinary powers” that Bill 19 appears to give to employers can be used to “intimidate and penalize both rank-and-file union members and their

elected officials.”

“It is not surprising that the employer is given authority and dis- cretion for enforcing the dispute resol- ution provisions of Bill 19 because the process is clearly in place to benefit the employer. There is no corresponding enforcement provision in case of a violation by the employer,” the CIEA newsletter states.

It adds that the position of the industrial relations commissioner “ap- pears designed to give the provincial government full control of the collec- tive bargaining process, but without the political accountability of having to suspend or remove the right to strike in a particular dispute by a vote of the legislature.”

loaf of bread — at least as far as the Castlegar Hospital Ladies Auxiliary and the nurses in the Extended Care Unit are concerned.

As reported in Sunday's CasNews, the Auxiliary and nurses sponsored a bake sale to help raise money for Rick Hansen's Man jn Motion world tour. The bake sale was set for Thursday, so organizers arranged to pick up donated baked goods Wednesday evening.

‘Teena Leitch, an auxiliary member, contacted Anna

to say she would drop by her home to pick up a Russian loaf.

But when Leitch went to the home, a teenage boy answered the door and said he didn't know anything about a Russian loaf for a bake sale. However, he said his mother had just baked several loaves and suggested Leitch go ahead and take one.

Leitch picked up the loaf and headed home. The next morning Gattinger called to ask why Leitch hadn't stopped by to pick up the Russian loaf. It seems Leitch got the houses mixed up and had picked up a loaf from Florence Kravski — who knew nothing about a hospital bake sale.

By the time Leitch tracked down Kravski's loaf, it had been sold.

But Kravski didn't mind at all, knowing the proceeds went to spinal cord research. Oh yes, the sale netted $250 for Rick Hansen.

CASTLEGAR NEWS advertising manager Gary Fleming prevented a potential catastrophy last week outside the newspaper office.

“The car would have rolled right onto Columbia,” said Fleming.

The woman said she left her car running because it was hard to start.

NAKUSP IS actively pursuing First Canadian Specialty Automotive Ltd., the Trail-based firm that plans to manufacture vintage automobiles. First Canadian President John Wizinsky told Nakusp Mayor Stan Fellows he will make a tour of the Westar Timber property in Nakusp in about six weeks.

Westar Timber has reportedly made an offer to sell its Nakusp site.

Fellows said First Canadian has also indicated that it wants to build glass boats at its fi ing plant.

NELSON'S David Thompson College, the private high school operating in the former David Thompson University Centre campus, is getting ready to open this

ber. , a school spok said is only about half what officials had projected by this time.

The school had expected to have 50 students signed up by now, but only have about 25 students. The school now anticipates it will have about 50 students enrolled when its doors open in the fall. About six or seven teachers are expected to be hired for the first year. though officials can’t set staffing levels until enrolment figures are firmer.

NELSON HAS a new photofinishing place. It is called Horizon 1 Hour Photo and is located in Chahko-Mika Mall.

Refund slated for utility customers

By CasNews Staff

West Kootenay Power and Light customers will receive a slight refund on their bills over the next few weeks.

The B.C. Utilities Commis. sion has ordered the utility company to grant its custom ers a refund of $709,000, or about $4 to $6 per residential customer, depending on con- sumption.

The commission allowed a 4.9 per cent rate hike fol lowing public hearings held in Rossland last December. This compares to six per cent

which the company was authorized to add to cus- tomers’ bills from January 1, 1986 on an interim refund- able basis.

West Kootenay Power and Light had asked the utilities commission for a 14.3 per cent return on investment for 1986. The commission said that amount was too high and rolled it back to 13.75 per cent.

A spokesman for the utility company said that the refund ordered will not affect its operations.
