Kitimat Takes Alcan Power Sale Fight to BC Court
Kitimat council and business leaders petition BC Supreme Court to review 1949 water and power agreements with Alcan. They argue the pot of electricity was meant for aluminum making near the Kemano works, not for large profits from selling surplus power. Mayor Richard Wozney frames the case as life and death for Kitimat.
