While these delicate symbols are fully appropriate to the image of Mother, equally fitting is the depic- tion of her as ‘‘the greatest source of the country’s strength and inspiration’’, offered by U.S. President Woodrow Wilson 65 years ago. For indeed Mother is the original ‘‘one-woman band"’, .embodying and adapting to a myriad of rare qualities and challenging roles. In addition to 24 hours of special pampering, Mother’s Day in Canada is celebrated by sclecting gifts and greet- ing cards for these special ladics.

When the Endako Mine opened in 1965, the nearby community of Fraser Lake was revitalized. Formerly a tiny village, Fraser Lake today is a modern town of 1,500 people...and it’s happening because the mine is a well-run, profitabie operation. “Profit” is a key word when assessing a mine. When an operation is profitable, there’s money for expansion, for replacing worn-out equipment ..and of course, for repaying the shareholders whose investment made the mine possible. Profits also aid the environment, by helping to pay for the reclamation work carried out by a mine like Endako, Equally important, profits help to finance exploration, which leads to new mines and new jobs. The most obvious benefits from a profitable mine are found in towns which depend directly on mining. Towns such as Fraser Lake, Trail, Kimberley, Granisle and Peachiand. In every case, the proximity of a viable mining operation has led to growth and prosperity. But apart from the people who benefit directly through jobs in mining, there’s a tremendous indirect benefit to many more people. That’s because for every job in mining, there are an estimated three more jobs in B.C. that depend on mining—jobs in service industries and supply companies. Considering the enormous capital investment needed to put a mine into operation, realizing a profit is no simple task. It requires sound planning, efficient management and a skilled work force. Dedicated people have helped Endako become Canada’s largest producer of molybdenum, pro- viding direct employment for nearly 650 people and indirectly supporting roughly three times that number. Endako is one of many B.C. mines utilizing a natural resource in a way that benefits our whole province.
