The Pohle Lumber - operation is now cutting lumber and rather - than mature trees has turned __ off its dry propane and oil... we use principally natural gas under more normal cir- cumstances," he said during ‘evening meeting in the Lakelse Hotel. CanCel is still able to keep up its supply of chips and said ~ -pullplogs to its mill in Prince Rupert, he said, Watson said that 1978 has been a year of some problems and change for CanCel, There was a world surplus of marxet pulp at the ginning o year. “in the first half, the demand for pulp picked up, prices held at a level ich made it very hard for on «sits ~~ «market = pulp operations.

The start-up is well underway in Prince Rupert and “we anticipate that that in the future this operation should be con- sistently producing about 1,100 metric tons a day at a time when market demand and prices are both clim- bing," he sald. “I know that the new kraft mill employs a few less’ people (in Prince Rupert), but it will be efficient and profititable, which the ald sulphite mill was not...these changes guarantee con- tinued employment for many hundred area residents for many years ahead,” Watson “We're also making’ changes in the Terrace area to make our Pohle Lumber operations more efficient and we have just installed a $1.7 million electronic lumber sorter as part of that commitment,” he sald. "T think you should also know that we are not stop- ping our financial com- mitment to improve the mill with the modifications we've made, We are looking for ways to make the operation - even more efficient and economical, and one of the ways to do that is to increase Energy tour hits Terrace Are you interested in : 43, \we!

Watson said that “we Canadians are all extremely knowledgeable about our Tights, but somehow fall shorton the knowledge of our responsibilities’. Noting that increased productivity is the key to Canada’s suc- cessful competition in world markets, he said there is an immediate need for in- dialogue and un- derstanding between government, labour and industry. Watson said that part of the blame must lie with the leadership of Canadian in- dustry and that all to often business problems and shortfalls are written off as “labour troubles”, “1 have never yet seen an ex- planation to shareholders diagonosed as management Watson called on business to develop a cconsullation style of management saying, “there can be no comparisen between the morale of the team that consults on the field at the point of action and the morale of a team which is told what to do”. Watson also questioned the often paradoxical behaviour of Canadian businesses toward profits, which he said are often “soft-pedalled” so as not to whet the appetite of labour, ‘'Then, they are caught in a dilemma,” said Watson. “If they don't an- nounce their profits, they can't attract investment capital, If industry an- nounced not only profits, but also its plans for reinvesting them in dividends to ‘shareholders so as to allract more capital, in plants and facilities to create more jobs —- they need not and would not be embarrassed.” Watson remarked that The Herald, Monday, November 20, 1978.

When amine like Endako profits, B.C. benefits. When the Endako Mine opened in 1965, the nearby community of Fraser Lake was revitalized. Formerly a tiny village, Fraser Lake today is a modern town of 1,500 peopie...and it's happening because the mine is a well-run, profitable operation. "Profit" is a key word when assessing a mine. When an operation is profitable, there's money for expansion, for replacing worn-out equipment ..and of course, for repaying the shareholders whose investment made the mine possible. Profits also aid the environment, by helping to pay for the reclamation work carried out by a mine like Endako, Equaily important, protits help to finance exploration, which leads to new mines and new jobs. The most uuvious benefits from a profitable mine are found in towns which desend virectly on mining. Tovens such as Fraser Lake, Trail, Kimberley, Granss!-: and Peachiand. In every case, the proximity of a viable mining ope-ation f.:« kd to growth and prosperity. But apart from the people who benefit direct, through jobs in mining, there's a iremendous indirect benefit in rn any riore People. That's because for every job in mining, there ar» ..9 estimated three more jobs in i: ~ “at depend on mining—jobs in services industries and supply companies Considering the enormous capital investment needed to put a mine into operation, realizing a profit is no simple task. It requires sound planning, efficient management and a skilled work force. Dedicated people have helped Endako become Canada's largest producer ci molybdenum, pro: viding direct employment for nearly 650 people and indirectly supporting roughly three times that number. Endako is one of many B.C. mines utilizing a natural resource in a way that benefits our whole provinca. MINING “B.C’s second largest industry” The Mining Association of British Columbia
