Close Canada Employment Centre in Chetwynd prompts reader plea
Pauline Laidman of Chetwynd urges keeping the Canada Employment Centre open, arguing its personal service and job re entry programs boost employment. She notes 254 local employers and 1,500 workers, with 10.7 percent unemployment, warning closure would push residents to travel to Dawson Creek and harm the community.

Vehicle inspection expansion and costs under BC policy
Premier Clark is urged to cut government size by targeting private vehicle inspection. Jackie Pement oversaw a 300 percent enforcement rise, with 30 000 vehicles yearly selected for inspection and possible repairs or removal. A mandatory V S program for moves from other regions drew criticism amid 32 pages of rules despite a Peat Marwick Thorne study showing no impact on accidents.
