Alberta eyed coal boom with research drive and policy push
Norbert Berkowitz of the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board told a resource conference that Alberta must foster a coal development climate akin to oil and gas. He urged intensified research in mining, handling, transport and land reclamation, noting coal research funding lags oil sands support. He warned of limited industry effort to publicize coal's potential and projected Alberta coal could rise to 27.3 million tonnes by 2000, powering electricity.

Regional Cable Debate Over CHAN TV Access at Cancom
The Canadian communications commission may require approvals for 5440 Cable Ltd to carry CHAN TV Vancouver via Cancom. A pass through charge to subscribers is likely if the proposal proceeds. The department suggested the Anik B experiment offered free transponder use, with BCTV distributing signals at no charge within its footprint. Normal sat transponder rentals run about 1.2 million annually, costs that Concom would recover through customer charges. The commission notes CHAN is optional and not mandatory to provide, though it has encouraged exploring such services. Local retransmitters in Fort St John and Dawson Creek carry CFRN Edmonton’s CTV to cover gaps. The overall situation shows a lack of BC originated CTV service in the area.
