INQUIRING REPORTER

THE SOCIAL CREDIT leadership race was the focus of
local news reports over the weekend, ending weeks of
speculation and attention regarding who will lead the
party in the next election. Premier Rita Johnston won a
close vote over Grace McCarthy, who recent polls claim
was the only candidate that could lead the Socreds to

victory in the next provincial election. Johnston must
call a provincial election this year. And when that voting
date is set, residents who dislike politics will have to en-
dure more pre-ciection ‘‘hype’’ and coverage which will
likely involve at least the same amount of attention
given to the Socred leadership race.

Did you follow the Socred race?

turn it off due to amendments
made (to regulations governing the
operation of the SeaBus). It won't
affect safety. It does aot pose a
danger,”’ said MacFarlane.

The man, who asked not to be
identified for fear of losing his
job, said the blue light is the only
way he and others who work in
Burrard Inlet can see the SeaBus
at night.

“An accident is going to hap-

There is no other way we can see
the SeaBus at night without that
