Two MEN. were arrested on May .13 in connection with j
‘a-string of break-ins at a West. Vancouver apartment in

for a letter outlining North Vancouver City’s opposi-
tion to the possibly pro-graffiti message contained in
the ad to be sent to various partics including Molson
Breweries,

Councillors Darrell Mussatto and Bill Bell present-

ed council with another point of view.

“Some may think this is art.” said Mussatto.

Meanwhile, Coun. Barbara Sharp found herself
more at odds with yet another aspect of the ad.

“I have a bigger problem with the issue of the ad
and youth and drinking,” said Sharp.

The motion was subsequently amended to include
council's concern over the possible promotion of
drinking by youths in addition to its original concern
with the promotion of graffiti.

Council approved the final motion by a vote of 5-1.

For its part. Molson Breweries responded by stating
that the ad “is not intended-to condone or encourage
the defacement property; simply to portray a new and
legitimate art form which is rather unique...

“This series. of ads has run its course and been
replaced by a new campaign,”
Molson’s vice president of public affairs.
