STUDENTS FOUND 222 jobs
with the local Canada Employ-
_ ment office this summer, accord-
ing to student employment officer
Nicki Karlash,
While that number is up slightly
“from last year’s total of 219, less
than one-third of the 222 jobs
were full-time.
’_ Most of ‘these full-time posi-
tions, said Karlash, went to post-
secondary students.

Fourty-three of the positions
were part-time while 117 were
casual work lasting five days or
less,

‘A lot of high school students
couldn’t find work or could only

nd casual work,’’ Karlash said.
“But most post-secondary stu-
dents found work eventually.”

She said the majority of jobs for
post-secondary students were

. Companies with only ane oper-
ating mine will pet a tax break
under a new provincial govern-
ment plan,

They'll be allowed tax deduc-
tions on trust funds set up to
handle reclamation cosis when
the mine closes.

“The provincial Mines Act has
allowed companies to set up these
reclamation trust funds for some
time,”’ said mines minister Anne
Edwards. ‘‘But because of the tax
implications of funding them,
mining companies were reluctant
lo put money inte them.’’

Companies with more than one
mine also had an advantage be-

cause they could draw income
from other sources to finance
reclamation projects.
