They had to have 314 million more than the budget limit just to hold body and soul together, they said. At the same time, they didn’t want to make their own tax- payers pay for it. Pauline Weinstein & Co. counted on Victoria collapsing. They counted wrong. The sad part is thai, aided and abetted by the media, their propaganda has _per- suaded too many people that their cause is just. The fact is that the VSB patted and padded the system until the silly thing finally burst. And the majority socialists On the board were us close to the B.C.

Here are some of the things it showed: © The 1985/86 school budget provided for 500 teachers who either didn’t do any teaching or provided ‘special services’’ like English as a se- cond language. {1 have been railing against the latter abomination for years. If the feds want to import all those immigrants, let them pay the school costs instead of dump- ing them on the local tax- payer. Weinstein, however, couldn’! spend enough on that stuff. She's Mrs. Multicult.) ® Cutbacks in the bloated administration could save up to $6 million. Cutting out vice-principals in the elemen- tary schools could alone save $640,000. The VSB had refused to hear of it. © The education ministry recommendation for the cost of each trustee was $8,200. In fact, Weinstein & Co. were spending over five times that because they felt they had to have a ‘*communications function’ (for which read public relations unit) that other schoo! districts do not have. ; ‘Do you want more out of life More friends, more happiness, more money, more fun, freedom of choice is cur right and we think we practise it... the results are vague feeling’s of uncertainty, frustration, feelings of helplessness.

In April of this year, our overall delivery efficiency across the North Shore reached 98% — equailing our 98% achievement in March. In the British Proj, orties area, the average was only a bit lower, f 96.8%. To reach the 98% plateau the / first time was extremely gratifying, and now our aim is for consistency. My entire Circulation Depart- ment staff, our 24 Zene Managers, and 1,000 newspaper carriers intend to do everything possible to maintain this outstanding delivery to our readers in North and West Vancouver.

Nothing daunted, it was going to hike the budget by 4.5 per cent. Then there was the joke that a full-time dispatcher was employed to work with a grand total of {4 trucks and vans. Heinrich had to do what he did. One thing that is not understood, for instance, is that if a school district doesn’t pass a tax-rate by- law, which was what Weins- tein and the other comrades were refusing to do, a municipality cannot collect the taxes. No taxes, no schools, And these people say they favor education. I say good riddance to the bolshies, and hello to Al Stables, the former Delbrook man. eee Error department: in my fascinating piece on the loonies of London, Eng.; who are introducing ‘‘non- racist math” into the school curriculum, I referred to the London County Council.
