Mill deserves

Dear Editor:

As a longtime reader of the North Shore News and
a lifetime resident of the North Shore, fam amazed at
the credence and column inches you give Mr. Terry
Jacks, self-appointed environmentalist, for his attacks
on the pollution produced by the Port Mellon pulp
mill of Canadian Forest Products.

He sets his sights on the pollution produced by the
Canfor mill at Port Mellon. Does he have any facts to
back up his statements? Any air photos, dates, con-
centrations, durations, wind directions, barometric
readings, analysis, assessment of property or physical
damage to himself or his neighbors, or any other
direct proof that his problem if it exists, is indeed the

result of Port Mellon’s operation? None is forthcom-
ing.

f have known West Howe Sound intimately for the
last 60 years during all of which time Port Mellon has
been running as the mainstay of a fragile economy.
The company has worked, in good economy and bad,
to improve the operation of the mill as it is running,
much more difficult and costly than to build a new
mill with all pollution controls installed as the mill is
built. The improvement of air and sea water over the
years is steady and noticeable, they deserve commen-
dation for their efforts, not a kick.

They never let you down...

because we never let up.

Certainly, we start with the finest quality beef. But thereason
we're able to guarantee you will enjoy our steaks time after
time, is the result of ournatural aging. A steak thatis properly
aged will be beautifully tender, and taste rich and delicious.
All of our steaks are aged...a full 21 days. Most of the
others’ aren't.

You'll like the convenience too!

After the aging, we vacuum-seal each steak. Individually.
Then they're flash-frozen, suspended at this peak of
perfection until you're ready to enjoy them. Steak after steak.
