Page A10 — Terrace Standard, Wednesday, May 27, 1992 Kitselas leaders defy protesters TERRACE -- ‘We're not going to resign.”’ That was Kitselas band admin- istrator Brian Seymour’s terse Statement May 20 in the basc- ment of the Salvation Army hall as band members protested out- side. *"T feel it's in the better interests of the people that elected me in to carry out my full two-year term,’’ Seymour said. He was there to meet with Can- ada Mortgage and Housing Cor- poration officials and band mem- bers about the progress of the band’s subsidized housing devel- opment east of town at Kitselas Canyon, | Drum-beating band members showed up only ‘to baycott the meeting, saying they no longer recognize Seymour and the rest of the current band council. They've been calling for the resignations of Seymour and band chief Ralph Wright for more than a month, They accuse the council of incompetence in losing about $3 million worth of pre-approved federal grants for the housing project. . ‘Ron Nyce, spokesman for the protesters, said his people are angry about delays in the con- struction of 20 new houses at the Gitaus subdivision that were completed this spring, ‘Originally to be ‘finished last December, the first families didn’t move in until last month. And Nyce accuses the council Sak ' KITSELAS BAND members once again called for the resignation of band chief Ralph Wright and administrator Brian Seymour last Wednesday, boycotting a meeting with CMHC officials. of reneging on an earlier deal that would have seen band members rent-to-buy the units. The council now plans to rent out the units, he said. Scymour said the delays were partly the result of difficulties ec- nountered installing the subdivi- .Sion’s water reservoir. Culture grant given TERRACE -- Work should be- gin this year on developing a na- tive culture program for local schools, says Kermode Friend- ship Society executive director Dorothy Davidson. ‘The society has received a $25,000 grant from the education ministry as part of Victoria*’s lan- guage and culture curriculum in- itiative. mo Davidson said the money will be used to hire a ‘researcher: for ae road," five months to find material for the program. Although there are ‘already ad- vanced language and culture pro- grams set up by the Nisga’a in the Nass Valley and the Gitksan in the Hazeltons, Davidson says the plan is to develop material with a loca] flavour. ; "At this point we’re just talking culture,” she said, "We may look at language sometime down the fe - tee, bs Shag es ‘‘Progress of the subdivision is, based on how fast the contractors move,”’ he explained, ‘TE it lakes longer, it takes longer.’’ But that doesn’t wash with Gertie Bryant, who lived with her family in a truck for two wecks before she finally moved into her new home. She said her family gave notice they were moving out of their Port Simpson house at the begin- ning of January, ““We managed to hang in there until March,” Bryant said. After living in a truck for two weeks, “we forced our way into that - house.’ Bryant said she blames Wright and the band council for the un- certainty surrounding the housing development. ‘Who else can you blame? They’re in charge,’’ she said. “‘T. can’t sleep at nights wondering what's going to happen.” “JULY 6-24 — “FOR ADULTS & YOUTHS Ss umm er arts. $ ¢ Vv Qurara- hoaooil.
