B.C.’s logging
not like Brazil's

Dear Editor:

Mr. Hunter’s recent column on
the Carmanah is a perfect example
of the unrealistic aspirations of
the environmentalists in their
quest to preserve everything.

Sure, logging practices could
have been improved in the past
but the logging industry learns
from its mistakes and through

meaningful dialogue with its
critics.

To subtly compare what is hap-
pening in Brazil to the present sit-
uation in B.C. is just not true.

What is wrong with sustainable
development?

No turbans for
RCMP uniform

Open letter to Prime Minister
Brian Mulroney:

I totally disagree with you to
allow turbans to be worn in the
uniform of the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police.

The formation of the RCMP is

part of the history of Canada as a
country. I don’t feel the design of
their uniform should be changed

at all.

Immigration to Canada has
been on a large scale during the
last 15 to 20 years but, except the
Indians of America, each Cana-
dian citizen is part of the structure
of Canada as a country.

Yellow pages pose problem

Dear Editor:

Coincidental with Earth Day,
Yellow Page telephone directories
were being left at the doorways of
B.C. Telephone Company
subscribers, and shortly thereafter
discarded copies began appearing
for disposal.

At this point, I called the

recycling hotline and was disap-
pointed to be informed that none
of the North Shore communities
have any provision for recycling
these publications. I would have
to take mine to Vancouver's
recycling depot if it were not to
become part of the garbage prob-
lem.

One ray argue that the

publishers of the Yellow Pages
have the primary responsibility for
disposal of their discards.

The fact that the company
shirks this task, however, is no
excuse for local bodies charged
with garbage control be®aving in a
similar fashion.

NOW OPEN

For improved claim service, a second ICBC claim
centre is now open in North Vancouver, across

Fanon Rroseras

The bad news is that auto

insurance claims continue to
increase throughout B.C. The
good news is that now North
Shore residents have two
claim centres to choose from
for fast, efficient service.
