Interesting promises...

The election is over and it’s time for
voters and politicians alike to review some
of the promises made during the heat of
the fray.

Many of those promises were just so
much chaff in the wind but many of them
bear close investigation and might produce
some very worthwhile changes in the over-
all development of the north.

For example, we like the idea of a full
time Minister of Lebour — something
promised by the N.D.P. contingent. Our
Member, Mr. Little would do well to look
into this suggestion with careful. scrutiny.
We also like the idea of an ombudsman,
and above all, we think a verbatim record
of proceedings in the Legislature (provin-
cial Hansard) is an absolute must and long
overdue.

The Liberal approach to school financ-

Hop to it...

Congratulations Mr. Dudley G. Little!
You fought a goed fight, you won it fairly
ond you put a great deal of effort and zest
into your election campaign.

Your new term of office will probably .

be one of the most difficult you'll ever
hove to face. The lower mainland repre-

tives plan to make things hot for the
-s Legitiature and they may want to consume
“the north in their flames.

ing is one that shows — possibilities . and
should certainly be given consideration.
As for the condition of Highway 16 —
unless there's another election before 1970
— we've prpobobly heard the fast of it.
Highway 16 will be finished before then.
(it says here!) Oh yes ~~ and there'll be
a new bridge across the Skeena at Terrace,
and the Stewart-Cassiar Road should be
finished also. In fact by the time the next

_ election rolls around we won't have any

issues left for the politicians to fight over.
Of course there are a few items such
as Municipal aid and high insurance rates

- which may or may not receive some atten-

tion before the Socreds head for the
hustings again.

In any case, here in Skeena, the people
have proven once more that they do take
their politics seriously, Now we'll find out if

politics holds people in the same esteem.

‘In fact it wouldn’t hurt if you strapped
on q back-pack pump when you head for
Victoria — you may need it.

This time we'd like to see the northern
constituencies come first in everyone's
deliberations. We're convinced you have
our interests at heart ~— now ail that re-
mains, is for you to instill those interests in

' the hearts of your colleagues.

Best of luck!
