Larry Sherman
new Sales Manager

Jim McEwan, President
of McEwan GM, has an-
nounced the appointment of

‘Larry Sherman as Sales
Manager of the firm,
replacing Stu Crouse who
has accepted a position in
Powell River.

Larry has been a resident
of Terrace for the past eight
_years and has been with the
- GM dealership for the past
‘two. He came to Terrace
‘from Hope where he was
‘involved in logging. He
worked here as a grapple-
yarder operator for Twin
River. He later went into the
insuranee business with
Prudential Insurance.

Larry is married to Judy
-and they have four children.
Both he and his wife are
active in the community.
Larry was External Vice
President of the Jaycees
and was chairman of the
Jaycee Trades Fair. Judy is
currently Vice President of
the Jaycettes.

Larry looks to the future
with optimism and he
makes it quite clear that he
is still a part of the McEwan
sales team. He looks for-
ward to seeing old
eustomers and welcomes
any new ones. He mentioned
that the dealership is getting
into the general line of

heavy trucks and in this
connection he is almost
through a correspondence
course from the Truck
Marketing Institute which is
designed to enable him to
properly assess what is
required from a particular
truck ta best perform a
specific job. ;

In addition to the general
truck lines Larry is looking
forward to the coming of
spring as he anticipates a
record year for the firm in
recreation vehicles. He has
arranged for complete lines
of trailers and campers as
well as mobile and motor
homes.

Jim McEwan was en-
thusiastic about the future
with his new sales manager.
He said that he was very
sorry to see Stu Crouse
leave but as it was a step up
in Stu’s career he did not
feel that he should try to
disuade him in his decision.
It makes the transition easy
he noted, having a young
man on the go like Larry to
step into the breach. He said
that Larry is a_ sales-
oriented man who will still
be a big part of the sales
team. Larry himself agrees
that he will be out on the Jot
more than at his desk.

- Shelter Aid for Elderly

The “Shelter Aid for
Elderly Renters Act’’
represents a landmark in
Canadian housing policy.
Nowhere in Canada has a
provincial government
made such a strong com-
mitment to meetin
shelter needs of the elderly.

Many senior citizens are
seeing a steady increase in
the portion of their income
required for shelter — some
are paying as high as 50 and
60 percent of their income on
rent, This legislation
provides the minister with
the power to make direct
cash payments to those
elderly renters in need. For
the purposes of this Act,
“elderly” is defined as a
person 65 years of age or
older and “in need” is
defined as a person paying
in excess of 30 percent of
income on rent. Single
elderly renters in need will

receive up to $70 per month |

$25,000 question unanswered

Municipal Affairs
Minister Hugh Curtis has
refused to answer ‘a
question of morality” about
a $25,000 gift being given to a
group of northern B.C.
municipalities by an oil-
pipeline company.

Two days after he first
asked the question, Graham
Lea, New Democratic

ML.L.A. for Prince Rupert, ~

was ruled out of order in the

- Terrace

Legislature when he asked:
“Whatis the minister’s idea
of morality in-terms of a
private company giving
$25,000 to a municipal
government convention.”

The gift was given to the
North Central Municipal
Association to insure that
their convention would be
held in part on the vessel
Princess Patricia which
would carry delegates along

to have

its own dollar

Mayor Gordon Rowland
has proclaimed a trade
-dollar initiated by the
British Columbia
Yellowhead 16 Travel
Association as negotiable
currency in Terrace bet-
ween July 1 and September
5, 1977.

The association intends to
run a trade dollar in this
tourist region for a period of
ten years commemorating a

different place or event each”

year. The first in this series
will be struck com-
memorating the fiftieth
anniversary of the District
of Terrace. It will bear the
district’s Coat of Arms on
one side with reference to

. the 50th anniversary. On the

YES

other side will be the,

Yellowhead route.

The trade dollar will be
beautifully minted coins in
ure nickel with a value of
1.00 and will be available
for use by ali businesses.
The B.C. Yellowhead
Association will be
receiving a percentage of
the profits of the retained
coins, ‘possibly in the
vicinity of seven or eight

‘thousand dollars, depending
on the success’ of the

program.

The trade dollar coins will
be negotiable currency
which could be used
anywhere in the region for
goods or service. The banks
in the region will be ac-
cepting them as currency.

the route of
travelling to the proposed
Kitimat pipeline. The gift
came from the company
that is seeking to build the
pipeline.

Earlier Mr. Lea was ruled
out of order when he asked
the same minister if the
government would give a

$25,000 grant to en-
vironmental groups so that
they could labby the

under the proposed program
and couples will receive up
to $50 per month, It Is
estimated that some 26,000
senior citizens households
will qualify for assistance
under the proposed Shelter
Aid for Elderly Renters
Program (8.A.F.E.R.).

The ‘Shelter Aid for
Elderly Renters Act’ also
amends the provincial

“Income Tax Act’ to
facilitate a meshing of the
Renter's Tax Credit
Program with the Shelter
Aid for Elderly Renters
Program. Effective
January 1, 1978, elderly
renters will have the option
of participating under one or
the other, but not both, of
these programs. Greatly
increased benefits will be
available under the Shelter
Aid for Elderly Renters
Program for those in need.
Also effective January i,
1978, the guaranteed 40
minimum Renter's Tax
Credit for elderly renters
will be discontinued. The
resulting saving allows us to
provide greater assistance
to those truly in need of help.

‘The Act also allows for the
administrative details
relating to Shelter Aid for
Elderly Renters Program to
be determined
regulation. The
ministrative details covered
by regulation are:

a, the formula on which
Shelter Aid payments are
based, including maximum
assistance levels and
maximum claimable rent
levels, and

ad.

b. the rules for deter-
mining whether or not a
rson is eligible to receive
elter Aid payments.
Handling these items by
regulation will allow us to
react quickly as the needs of
the elderly change over
me.

There is no need for senior
citizens to phone or write for
information regarding the
Shelter Aid for Elderly
Renters Program.
Arrangements are being
made to mail an application
form and. information
brochure to all persons in
receipt of the Old Age
Security Pension. This
mailing will take place
during May 1977.

Many senior citizens have

become apprehensive and -

fearful of what the future
holds for them.
