WHEN Grade & students at Skeena finished their assigned dance instruc- tion ahead of schedule recently, teachers decided a little recreation was in order, And that lead to a disco atmosphere in the gym for part of one afternoon. Katy Morrison, left, and Sonia Hundal perfect their moves. Air fare won’t decline despite security shift AIR CANADA passengers can’t expect a price break now that security screening has been taken over by a new federal agency. The new agency began its work April 1 and passengers are being charged $12 was included in tickets. But Dennis Erickson, an official of the newly-named Air Canada Jazz regional carrier, says the airline has new addition- al security measures which cost money over and above metal detectors and hand- baggage searches. “There is new security on cockpit doors and enhancements behind the scenes that quite frankly I can’t discuss which have new costs,” he said. “We are working with Transport Cana- da on those new enhancements.” The new $12 tax and the new Cana- dian Air Transport Security Agency is being heavily criticized by smaller car- riers such as Terrace’s Hawkair because -it'is a set rate regardless of distance Senate pitch on tax falls short SENATORS listened intently to Haw- kair’s Dave Menzies in Ottawa March 25 but ultimately approved the contentious federal air security surcharge. “They all lined up like good soldiers and did their duty,” said Menzies, one of eight expert industry witnesses who testi- fied before the Senate finance committee The $12 surcharge — $24 for a round- trip flight — took effect April 1. “It’s very disappointing that they’ve ignored all the evidence and they’re just doing it anyway,” Menzies said on his re- flown or ticket cost. As well, Hawkair passengers don’t go through traditional screening when leay- ing Terrace or when departing from the south terminal at the Vancouver airport. But while Vancouver airport officials station at the airport here are either al- ready working directly for the new federal security agency or will be soon, says a Transport Canada official. Jacqueline Roy said the new security agency did not take over ali screening at every airport automatically on April 1. “In some cases, those people will still be paid by the airlines for now and the airlines will be reimbursed,” she said. The new agency is also developing certification requirements for screeners, Roy added. Meanwhile, local airport society presi- dent Frank Hamilton said new screening equipment has arrived and is awaiting in- stallation once screeners have been trained in its use. turn to Terrace. “It’s a mindless tax grab is what it is.” “The government’s done an amazing job of ignoring the expert testimony from industry groups on this.” Menzies said the security fee will col- lect more money from passengers al the Terrace airport than the entire budget for the airport’s operations. “The airport operation budget is $1.1 million here,” he said. “The security fee by our calculation is going to collect $1.2 million here.” ho “ack SPRING CLEAN-UP WEEK rénnace) APRIL 16-APRIL 19, 2002 The City of Terrace's Public Works Department will pick up extra Earbage and refuse, free of charge, during the week of April 16 - April 19, 2002.
