DURING the salmon spawning season, fish-
ing in the Capilano River is restricted, only
allowing native Indians to fish the river. But
the native people can only use the fish for
| personal consumption — selling the fish is

prohibited. Recently,

individuals — both

native and non-Indian — have been charged
with selling the fish. Today’s question is:

Should all be allowed
to fish | the Cap river?

Robert Stewart .

I don’t agree with it.
There are lots of dead
fish laying there that have
been gaffed and left lying
on the shore. 1 think it’s
disgusting. The Indians
are the same as us — the
same rules should apply
to everyone.

Lauren Evanow

North Vancouver

I ‘don’t believe anyone
should fish it, if you base
it on the reason why the
white people aren’t
allowed to fish it — to
preserve the fish.

Jeff Newson

North Vancouver
Everyone should be
allowed to fish it. I like
fishing myself and I don’t
see who has the right to
say who owns the fish.

John Rush

Kamloops

I+ think native people
Should fish the river
because they have for so
long. It's their way.
Anyone else who fishes in
there should have a
licence.

Earl Clark

Burnaby

There shouldn’t be fish-
ing allowed at all. If the
Indians are abusing the
system, then they should
be cut off. Taxpayers will
have to clean up the
mess.

CBC butts out

ICBC WILL be accepting no
butts from employees as of
October 1, :

The insurance corporation
has joined a growing number
of businesses that have in-
stituted non-smoking
policies in their offices.

As a result of an ICBC
employee survey conducted
in March, which showed
nearly half of the 1600
respondents were bothered
by second-hand smoke and
80 per cent were in favor of
a corporate smoking policy,
all work stations, private of-
fices, and meeting rooms
within ICBC offices will be
declared smoke-free zones as
of the first of the month.

Smoking employees and
other smoke-dependent
visitors to ICBC wiil be rele-
gated to designated areas of
ICBC buildings. Approx-
imately 2,300 ICBC staff in
over 50 locations throughout
the province will be affected
by the new policy.

Counselling
Centre
turned down

A REQUEST for a donation
te the North Shore Counsell-
ing Centre’s October 9 Chari-
ty Auction was turned dewn
by West Vancouver Council
Monday night.

By BILL BELL

Despite showing sympathy
toward the centre’s financial
plight due to provincial cuts
in funding, council decided
that it could not give the cen-
tre the requested season’s pass
at the municipal golf course
Gleneagles,

That would-have given the —

centre an item worth $650 for
its auction which will be held
at Irwin Park Schoo).
“They are doing great
work,” said Ald. Diana Hut-

_chinson, “‘but if we give them

a donation we will have to
start giving them to other wor-
thy causes and we just can’t do
that.’

Alderman David Finlay
agreed, but sai.j that the North
Shore Counselling Centre,
when asking for a grant
(which council gives to them
on an annual basis) next year,
‘*should include a request to
help alleviate the funding
shortage’’ caused by the
provincial government's
reduction.

“At that time I assumed this

request was for one year only

and would not be repeated,”’
Kurucz said.

“The North Shore Counsell-
ing Centre already receive an
annual grant from municipa!
council, and for that reason I
would like to recommend that
the counselling centre be in-
formed that yearly donations
from the municipality for their
auctions cannot be con-
tinued,’’ Kurucz said.
