that one day “in ‘the future, all
of the Gulf Islands and Vancouv-

reclamation of land and bridges.

the area, and use a little ima-

together. like a gigantic jigsaw

puzzie. There are two in-.

stances of this land reclamation.

possibility to our attention... --
On Salt Spring Island, land has

been reclaimed for the cause-
“way and a parking area, and in

Campbell River, the second Jand
reclamation is now in progress.

the manager of Discovery Inn,
and saw out of my window. on
the fourth floor the massive pro-
ject going on.twenty- -four hours
a day. .

«Then I realized that the whole

area where this’ modern hotel.
“now stands is on reclaimed land?!
My “host; William. Schammann,

told me that Discovery Inn was

built five. years ago, the second
