he political candidates’ debate on women’s issues has drawn mixed reviews by both men and women. Turner has promised millions for part-time training courses for women. Broadbent pro- mised $50 million for shelters for battered wives. Mulroney promised help for rape-crisis centres, and so on. Today’s question is:

‘“‘Do you think whoever wins the election will do much for women?”

Jeri Griffiths Kitsilano

We hate made some headway in women’s issues. We definitely need equal pay for equal work. It is still a man’s world and it will take some time for women to reach equality. It is also up to the business sector to help women. | am very tm- pressed by Judy Erola, Minister in charge of Status for Women.

Chris Perreira North Vancouver

Although the can- didates are promising help for women, | feel that there ts still a long way to go. I would like to see business do more for women

Rain doesn't mean end to restrictions

SUMMER HAS cooled off a litthe — and even gotten a little wetter — but that doesn’t mean an

end to burning Shore. Fire prevention officials

say the small amounts of rain received over the past week or so, are not enough to have had an effect on the fire potential and the restric- uons will continue.

North Vancouver City has banned burning and North Vancouver District has restricted access tO some Outdoors area as well as

restrictions across

the North

banning fires.

Despite that, brush and grass fires continue to plague the fire departments, although none of the blazes have so far caused major problems.

Fire officials say the restrictions On burning won't likely be lifted until the area receives a substantial amount of rain or a= long, cool penod.

Sikh charged with mischief
