‘Perhaps, contrary to popular
belief, the South Moresby situa-

tion was not put to rest with the

signing week before last of the

"agreement between the province

and Ottawa.

Creating a national park on
South Moresby was a serious
mistake. Doing so without
Haida participation was even

more of a blunder. The Haida,

as do all Queen Charlotte Island
residents, need economic
development to maintain’ and.
create reasonable livelihoods..
Setting aside the whole of South
Moresby as an area never to be
logged, eliminates a way to-
create badly needed jobs. Had
we listened to all of the people of
the Islands, including the Haida,
we would have realized that.
Those who believe an economic
base can be established by
substituting taxpayer-subsidized
tourism development, don’t
know the area in question.
Certainly the Haida needed to
