Dear Editor, Verne Prior, the gas company relations man, is a gentleman with humour. If ever he gets fired, or vacates his position, he would have a bright future telling jokes Saturday nights in some beer parlors. Prior said consumers pay a higher gas rate in the winter than the summer to promote conservation, but Lower Mainland consumers pay the same rate year round. This indicates we are penalized. If conservation is needed, why are we encouraged to burn more gas in summer. In the name of conservation, Canadian producers can't ship gas to the US because pipelines are full. The problem isn't solved until new pipelines come on stream in 1997. A $3 billion pipeline linking the Peace country to Chicago is in planning. The goal of companies is profit for owners and shareholders, while consumers worry about conservation and depletion. Pierre Bernard
