Receivers shut down Central Saanich plant Moses Point mansion now

Not enough chickens was one of
several reasons Island Poultry
Processors on Kirkpatrick Cres-
cent in Central Saanich was put
into receivership last week forcing
about 65 employees out of work.

Plant manager Ali Hemani said
the company was trying to put
some refinancing strategy together
when the bank appointed receiver
Emst and Young, who closed the
plant.

“We're looking at bids from
different people interested in pur-
chasing the facility,’ Hemani said.
“We're trying to find a person to

optimistic

After a successful inaugural

~ year, 2598 Sidney Signal RCACC

corps is looking forward to its
second year of operation, spokes-
man Capt. John Hungar said
recently.

“The unit is optimistic it will be
an even better year than its first,”
he said.

Marking the end of its first year
of existence, the 30-member corps
will parade tomorrow night at the
Admiral Budge Building, which is
near the airport he said.

As part of the parade, 741 Com-

munications Squadron will sup-

port the cadets with radio vans,
radio sets, rifles, various vehicles
and instructors, he said.

Hungar also said from Septem-
ber through to June of next year a
weekend training will be held once
a month for the cadets.

The camps will incorporate sur-
vival skills, map and compass
orientation, archery, downhill ski-
ing, search and rescue and radio
and field telephone training, he
said.

Target shooting, rappelling and
cross country skiing will also be
included in the training, he added.

A summer program is also pres-
ently under way for army, navy and
air cadets, Hungar said.

Marine engineer cadets will take
part in an exercise at HTS Colum-
bia CFB Naden tomorrow, while a
sports meet for cadets at Cadet
Camp Pat Bay will be held from 1
p.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday, he said.

A Smallbore Lifeguard Cadet
Graduation will be held at the Pat
Bay camp at 2:30 p.m., Aug. 17, he
said.

Hangar said a pilot graduation
will also be held at the same time
of day at Cadet Camp on Aug. 24.

Youngsters between the ages of
12 and 18 are welcome to join
2598 Sidney Signal RCACC, he
said.

buy it and rehire the same num-
bers we had.”

Hemani said that a number of
things contributed to the compa-
ny’s problems, including problems
getting enough volume, competi-
tor’s pricing, high interest rates
and budget over-runs.

Recently, the plant was losing an
average of about $30,000 a month,
although in peak summer months
it would tum a $10,000 profit.

“It goes up and down in a
volatile marketplace,’” Hemani
said. “We needed the volume to

down fluctuations doesn’t affect
us too much.”

The plant has hard assets of
about $3.5 million in the state-of
the-art plant, which cost $4.5 mil-
lion to build in the spring of 1988.

Hemani said management didn’t
agree with the receiver’s decision
to close the plant.

“We've had calls from clientele
who see prices jumping because of
the monopoly on competition.”

a bed and breakfast home

The former home of a convicted
North Saanich drug smuggler is
now operating as a bed and break-
fast while authorities prepare for a
forfeiture hearing in January.

Crown prosecutor Martha
MeNeely said the former water-
front mansion of cocaine kingpin
Ray Joubert is on a list of assets
the Crown wants to seize.

“There will be proceedings in

involved smuggling millions of
dollars worth of cocaine into Can-
ada.

The much-publicized 10-week
trial ended in April with Joubert’s
conviction.

His wife Helen Radok was

conspiring to import cocaine.

acquitted on the same charge of

January regarding the assets of
Joubert. Nothing is being done
until then,” she said.

Police allege the home was pur-

chased with the profits form Jou-
bert’s criminal activities.
The house, at 380 Moses Point
Road, is currently being touted in
an advertising brochure as “The
Courtyard By the Sea” and an
“Exclusive Bed and Breakfast.”

The brochure lists the accom-
modation as starting at $125 per
night. Facility operator Joy Nan
Maxham refused to comment
when contacted Tuesday. Appar-
ently, Maxham is now the regis-
tered owner of the house.
