THE PET OF THE WEEK this week is a five-week old black
Labrador cross puppy, found as a stray in the 4600 block Soucie
Ave. Shelter staff say he’s friendly and lively and will grow up to
be a medium-size dog. He's avallable to make friends at the
Terrace Animal Shelter on Haugland St.

The resignation of Environment
Minister John Reynolds Monday
has left unanswered the question of
whether there will be public hear-

ings into the environmental impact

of Alcan’s “Kemano Completion
Project.

'» Reynolds, who cited lack ‘of

support from Premier Bill Vander
Zalm for tough new environmental
legislation in announcing his resig-
nation, told a: parliamentary com-
mittee in Ottawa Dec. 4 that there
would be public hearings into

Kemano II’s environmental impact.

Two days later he publicly denied
having promised the hearings,
saying he may have used "incor-
rect terminology". Both Alcan and
the group fighting Kemano II, the

‘Rivers . Defense Coalition, were

taken by surprise when notified
that Reynolds had mentioned pub-
lic hearings.

The Alcan project had originally

passed government inspection and [i

gone ahead on the strength of
environmental studies done by a
contractor commissioned by Alcan.
