Although he expects change in
the system will be opposed by
those not paying residential taxes,
he says increased public awareness
will force reform.

‘“*There’s no way anyone can
argue against it. People will see

it’s unfair. The system is anti-.

quated and should be thrown out.”

Larrington started advocating
tax reform in 1974 and now sees
signs his long battle may be pro-
ducing results.

The Union of B.C. Municipalit-
ies is revicwing property tax
reform and tax reform is backed by
high-profile Socred MLA Grace
McCarthy. A recent protest meet-

people.

“The global village is more apt
today than every before,” said Sav-
age. ‘‘We have become one

‘another’s neighbors and cannot

continue to treat the oceans as an
endless food supply and garbage
disposal.

‘““We see the North Pacific as a
lake and we as global villagers
living on its borders.”

The conference, attended by 50
delegates from Canada, Alaska

and Washington State, was a first
step in joint international manage-
ment of North Pacific resources,
Savage said.

July 18, outlining recent federal

A byelection is necessary
because of the recent resigna-
‘tion from council of Ald. Ron
Kubek, effective Sept.:30.
