(1 Unemployment rate here drops THE NORTHWEST no longer has the dubious honour of having the highest unemployment rate in the province. That distinction now goes to the Cariboo which registered an unemployment rate of 10.4 per cent in April, edging out the northwest which had a 10.1 per cent unemployment rate. I!’s the first time in months that two regions of B.C. have had double-digit rates in an otherwise healthy provincial employment picture. The northwest rate was a drop from March’s 11.5 per cent. Federal Human Resources Development Canada Ter- race-based analyst Patrick Blaine McIntyre said the new

northwest jobs were being filled by young people. ~ “lt’s in ages 20-24, that’s where the increase is t&ng place,” he said. April statistics for the area from Vanderhoof to the Queen Charlotte Islands indicate that 45,400 people were working in April compared to 44,700 in March. Part time employment held steady at 13,200 from March to April but full time employment jumped from 31,500 jobs !o 32,200 jobs. “The data bodes well for next month as well. We could drop even further,” said McIntyre. . There were also just 20,900 people not in the labour force, a figure that hasn’t been that low since 2003, he added. “At least we’re getting some of what’s been happening elsewhere in B.C.,” McInytre said. ” As to where the new jobs are located, McIntyre said the regional picture is still brighter in the eastern end of this region than in the western end leading toward the coast.

Terrace, B.C. IB Learn about logs An open letter to: Robin Austin, NDP Candidate

Dear Sir: Your concept of preventing log export will not r&rn our domestic forestry industry to what it once was. The forest industry here is far more complex than you believe. Approximately 800,000 m3 of annual allowable cut was available to New Skeena and due to the policies of the day, they could not make the economics of running the sawmill work. Throughout the period following the collapse of New Skeena, jobs have been provided in the northwest through log export that otherwise would not been available. Log export increases the stand value of timber. Although the export percentage of our timber profile is small, it is far from insignificant. This small increase in stand value means the difference between going to work and not. This formula enables the timber profile to be harvested economically and allows the local sawmills to purchase sawlogs at an affordable price. It is vital to the economics of the logging compo- nent of the industry. It is important to me as a voter that the Skeena riding be represented by someone who fully understands the complex- ity of the resource based economy of the northwest. Dave Martin, Director, Northwest Logger’s Association, Terrace, B.C.

They don.”tget it ’ Dear Sir: I am struck by the NDP’s continued inability to make the link between a strong economy and increased social spending. Both Carole James and local candidate Robin Austin have no trouble promising us all kinds of new funds for social programs, but when it comes to funding their promises, they don’t have a clue. Neither Carole nor Robin understand (or will admit) that thFEeSt w%jTto-pay--For’iricre&ed‘so^ciiil-speridingiS thrhugh the power of a strong economy. Without a strong economy producing more revenue there is only one other way the NDP can pay for their lofty spending goals: increased taxation. Mr. Austin tells us he wants to top up social spending. But how does he expect to pay for that? Since he and the VDP have no economic plan for British Columbia, we can assume they would naturally start to raise our taxes -just as Harcourt and Glen Clark did during the 1990’s. Steve Alvey, Terrace, B.C. He was wrong Dear Sir: Roger Harris, in a campaign letter, misleads the constituents on the very important issue of expanding Alcan power sales. His comment that “we are the first provincial government in the history of British Columbia to sit down with Alcan and have discussions where the direct goal is re-investment in a new smelter for Kitimat” is wrong. As a past president of the union at Alcan I know we have facilitated meetings between the previous government and Alcan and discussed the very issue Mr. Harris professes to being unique and historical to his party, the Liberals. He has not been forthright to our union or the constituents of Skeena. He continues to flip flop on the issue without taking a firm stand on either side. The only historical legacy his government will leave is the devastation have caused in attacking the rights of the I ight ill-andthe mentally ill wi poor, oppressed and working class of this province.

Our $DOLLAR$ section< c1 Why Not to Vote Liberal is a fantastic hit! 1. A vote for the Liberals is a vote for fish farms.

Fish farms fund the Liberal Party.

The Liberal government has approved 2 fish farms at the mouth of the Skeena River. They are considering 16.

The government is ignoring mounting research that salmon farms contribute to the collapse of wild salmon runs.

In threatening the Skeena salmon runs, the government is threatening sports fisheries, commercial fisheries, aboriginal food fisheries, and tourism.

2. A vote for the Liberals is a vote for inequality. The average tax cut in Terrace was $503; in the Greater Vancouver it was $634. The North Coast took public service cuts of 28% under the Liberals; the Lower Mainland and Victoria suffered cuts of 15%.The Lower Mainland lost 5.7% of its teaching

positions; the rest of BC lost 11 %. 1 The Northern Health Authority lost 19.9% of its residential carehssisted living/acute care beds. Vancouver Coastal Health Authority cut 7%.

I Northerners have received less and lost more under the Liberals.
