Impaired charge follows crash

TCO MUCH noise and
some unorthodox driving
methods may have done in a
driver suspected of having a
little too much to drink early
Thursday.

North Vancouver RCMP
said they were alerted to a
possible impaired driver at
1:30 a.m. Thursday after a

citizen reported that the
driver of a pickup truck had
knocked over two. street
signs in the vicinity of Keith
Road and St. Georges
Avenue.

When police responded to
the call, they located the
truck in the 100 block East
6th Street. The only problem

was police arrived too late to
prevent the driver of the
pickup from backing into a
Volkswagen parked on the
street.

Charges are pending
against the driver of. the
pickup truck, a 28-year-old
North Vancouver man who
was arrested at the scene.

Mathin was speaking to a
large crowd of North Shore
dignitaries and community
residents at a Town Hall
testimonial for Cupilano
College, Wednesday night.

But while Matkin praised
Capilano College as one of
the best community colleges
in the nation, he made it
clear that the provincial
government didn't have any
more money,

“Rapid change in industry
can only be successfully met
through education...
Capilano has a very good
reputation and it has been
suggesied as one of the best
in Canada,"” Matkin said.

“But that perspective and
good work does not change
the fact that we are facing a
very difficult problem...
something has swept through
B.C. and the western worid
that is like a plague affecting
our well being.”’

Matkin told the audience
that tax money is ‘not
there,"’ but he challenged
Capilano College to provide
services for the business
community and then he
would put pressure on the
business community to fund
Capilano College.

“We all have a challenge
and as you have said we
‘must invest in tomorrow's
solutions today’.””

Matkin warned the col-
lege, that they are dealing
with a ‘‘glass half empty.”

“Achieve more with less
may sound contradictory,
but we must give emphasis
on education and we must
do more with less,"’ Matkin
said.

Despite Matkin'’s promise
of support for colleges from
the business community,
Capilano College President
Paul Gallagher told the au-
dience the college needed
more money now.

“Within B.C. Capilano
College is a fiesty institution,
it exudes energy and it pro-
duces and I say it does more!
And it has been doing more
with less,*’ Gallagher told
the enthusiastic audience.

The principal warned the
audience that the future of
Capilano ‘‘is hardly cer-
tain,’’ despite being at the

Matkin challenges Cap
College to raise funds

cutting edge.”

“We need you to stand up
for us because things are not
okay at Capilano, we have a
long way to go,’’ Gallagher
said.

According to the Faculty
Association the proposed cut
of $1,000,000 or cight per
cent of Capilano College's
budget will translate mtu
cuts of up to 300 courses
from the present 1,480 sec-
tions.

The college’s preliminary

budget from the provincial
government is $10,950,800.

It would also mean the
layoff of 37 faculty from the
present 200 full-time
equivalentg faculties.

“We want to share our
alarm over the crippling of
Capilano College by cuts to
courses and services resulting
from the inadequate provin-
cial funding of the College
