The first three proposal calls have gone out, and Terrace is not among them. Regional highways manager John Buckle said Friday he expects the Terrace contract to be called around the beginning of July. Three years ago the Terrace contract went to North Coast Road Maintenance, a division of Kentron Construction of Kitimat at the time. It is not known _ at this point is North Coast has decided to enter a proposal. According the district highways office, the value of the three-year contract is $11.7 million, not including the Nisga’a Highway and the Shames Mountain access road. North Coast is receiving $1.5 million over 20 months for maintaining the Nisga’a Highway and $100,000 over 13 months for the Shames road. _ The district, including the Nisga’a Highway and the Shames road, consists of 1,144 lane-kilometres of road and 106 bridges. A ministry public affairs official in Victoria said several changes will be made in the contract terms this year. The Quality Assurance Program, a performance monitoring system used by minisiry personnel to evaluate contractors, will be improved, Emily Gillis said. Contractors who perform above standard may be eligible for a two-year extension LC | J on their three-year contracts. Talks begin between Kalum Kabs and union Representatives of recently unionized employees at Kalum Kabs met with company manage- ment last week. "Initially, things appear to be going well," said Wiho Papenbrock of the Terrace B.C. Government Employces office. The BCGEU has signed up about 28 employees of the company, including mechanics, drivers and dispatchers. Papenbrock said the union is currently in the process of drafting a tentative agreement that will probably be ready to present to the company by next week. It is unusual for a union to repre- sent the entire workforce of a taxi ~ company because the drivers are normally paid by individual taxi owners rather than the company. With the Terrace taxi operation, however, all cars are company- owned. "In some ways we're breaking new ground," Papenbrock commented. “It’s unique." He is optimistic about progress to date. "We've mei with the management. They were sincere and honest, there seems to be no animosity." International Women’s Day to be celebrated The Terrace’s Women’s Resource Centre will screen two films, one today and one Friday in honour of International Women’s Day. Five Feminist Minutes will be shown starting at 1 p.m. this after- noon at the women’s centre on Park Ave., and The Best Time of My Life will be shown at 1 p.m. Friday. Everyone is invited to come out and celebrate the occa- sion. Intemational Women’s Day was established in Copenhagen al a 1910 conference attended by 100 women from 17 countries. March 8 was chosen to commemorate the date in 1908 on which women garment workers in New York took to the streets to demand better working conditions in their fac- tories. The demonstration was prompted by the deaths of 125 women in the Triangle Shirtwaist factory, a notorious sweatshop that was destroyed by fire. Recognition of Intemational Women’s Day in Canada began in the 1970's.
