‘more feasible, said Stewart.

'’ . ‘TEDA officials have been lobbying Premier Gordon. Campbell and, economic development minister Colin Hansen to open a trade de- velopment office in Terrace.

They last met with Han- sen Nov. 7 when he was ona —

Hansen said he liked the idea, but wants more infor- mation from TEDA before fully considering what might be possible. |

“We would have to free up the resources to make that happen,” said Hansen.
