“We are ready to negotiate the final details of the world-class National KAON particle physics
research project. It’s time to get on with the job. We are prepared to do our part, where is Ottawa?”

Honourable Gten Clark, Minister Responsible

HE National KAON Project
will bring the leading edge of
science to British Columbia to

discover ihe secrets of the smallest
particles in the universe.

@ The Government of B.C. this week
increased its commitment to the
National SAON Project and will
now fund one-third of the facility’s
capital costs and wiil share a
portion of the annual electricity
costs, which could reach $13
million a year.

e The U.S., Japan, Germaivy, italy,
France, Korea and Great Britain
have all committed funds.

e The Federal Government pledged
its support to the National KAON
Project six months ago, but has not
moved forward.

B.C. needs KAON.

The project will generate
17,000 person years of employment in
B.C. during its construction and once
operational will employ 1,900 people.

It will help secure our province’s position in the
world of scientific and medical research and
provide an estimated $243 million per year
boost to B.C.’s high technoiogy industry.

The world is waiting. It’s an opportu-
nity B.C. and Canada can’t afford to miss. But
time is running out.

The Federal Government spends only
$24.23 per capita in B.C. each year on research
and development. The national average is
$44.63. The average for the Ottawa/Hull
region is $579.21. Federal support for the
KAON project will help improve the balance.
