FERRY RUMORS

HERE is: little doubt but that rumors to the effect that
4 the C.P. Sidney-Steveston Ferry will be discontinued
and a broader, speedier service inaugurated from Swartz
Bay to Vancouver will become a reality in the next few
years. The trend is undoubtedly a vast trek of settlers
from the eastern part of Canada to the West. Vancouver
Island, the Gulf Islands and the Saanich Peninsula will all
become heavily populated in the next few years. A faster,
-more efficient service to the mainland will become impera-
.tive. The Gulf Islands, long neglected in ferry facilities,
will also need better ferry facilities. Unless an adequate
breakwater is built at Sidney, there is little chance of
transportation companies allowing larger vessels to berth
‘here overnight on an all-year-round service.

With the expansion of the Airport at Patricia Bay, the
cutting of the East Saanich Road and the rerouting through
Sidney. there is every indication that retail business will
not suffer ‘here.

What -is needed is unity of thought and co-operative
-aetion on the part of those interested. Too long have
Sidney and district merchants remained isolationists. If
“local self-government in the form of some sort of incorpora-
‘tion can not be affected, then the creation of a central
Board of Trade, with affiliations with other similar bodies
. should be immediately inaugurated. The Sidney Business-
men’s Association has done a magnificent task thus far.
It is time now: when others should have the right to assist
in planning for the future.

If, and it now appears that it is extremely. likely, the
‘Canadian Pacific company do operate from the Swartz
'. Bay. wharf in the next-few years, Sidney must prepare for
-the future. Ever ything isin its favor to develop into one
» of the most promising business centres on Vancouver

Island.
ae. } west modern airport at its very door, a speedy,.daily —
year-round ferry bringing passengers and tourists to its
~- outskirts, a well-settled and beautiful countryside on all

_. »-Planning, ‘progressive planning, onthe part of the
~pesidents and’ merchants of the area is the answer. A
‘spirit of broad understanding, of willingness to help other
“neighboring districts in their local problems, a_ unity of
oa thought, and. a_unity of spirit will create a central stopping

when we lived there in 1916, Anna Louise Strong verified my findings
and she is a communist—A Russian communist, and generally they
do not lie. But a comparison of the wagés then in Russia with those
before the revolution showed a surprising increase, greater than for
the same period in Canada!

Aren't we a lot more than a little illogical in blaming Russia
because in 40 years, many of them years of war, Russia has not achieved
as much in Democracy as we did in 900 years of our history, and be it
remembered that it is only recently that anywhere in Britain or the
dominions,-more than half the people had the sufferage. Any demo-
cracy which did not include women was only a half democracy.

The contributions we can make to democracy is by using it more
right here in Canada, where so many think it is a mattress on which
they can go to sleep instead of a weapon for the conquest of new vic-
tories for the common good, new horizons and new goals for humanity.
