The Boss Is Always Right
We start with two simple facts. First, that supervisors are legally obligated to ensure their workers' safety and to know the BC Workers' Compensation Act and the regulations that cover the work being supervised. Given the human and financial costs of injuries, we also see this as a moral obligation and a business imperative. second, that satisfying those obligations isn't as hard as it seems. Pretty much everything you need to know is spelled out in WorkSafeBC forest safety regulations. They're the guts of the Council's supervisor training. Here's another example for faller supervisors, who face the broad requirement of \"ensuring the faller's well-being at least every 30 minutes.\" The training gives practical ways of conducting individual faller man-checks across often widely spread falling sites. Information like this is potentially life saving, and at the very least is a starting point for getting clarification. You're always better off asking a hypothetical \"how to\" question than you are explaining \"what happened\" after an jury. We don't know anyone who can argue with that.

Parkway a masterpiece
Only 24.79 per cent of eligible voters said No. Protest voters usually make an extra effort to exercise their franchise so everyone not wanting the Parkway, unhappy with the route chosen, or not wanting a tax increase, etc. would have voted. In other words, 75 per cent of eligible voters are probably not opposed to the original Parkway. The Parkway and related issues have taken an inordinate amount of council and staff time over the years, not to mention the inconvenience and extra costs for developers, such as Activa. So after spending excessive amounts on consultants studies, only to find out The Parkway is by far the best route, why not just build it? Council meetings may then be over by 10 o'clock.

The Parkway: Yes
The anti-Parkway group claim that The Parkway will only save one kilometre and 72 seconds in driving time. I understand it costs 46 cents per kilometre to drive a car. A reasonable estimate of cars using the extended Parkway would be 15,000 per day. That would mean the travelling public could save 15,000 km and 300 hours of driving time each day. This amounts to $6,900 in car costs and approximately 1,500 litres of fuel. Over 25 years the total savings would be 13,687,500 litres of fuel and $62,962,500 in car costs. Unnecessary traffic signals and entrances onto The Parkway were probably allowed in hopes of killing The Parkway project. Apartment buildings and schools were built with full knowledge of the roadway location. We cannot afford to give those abutting The Parkway a $10- million gift.

Move factory, not street
The Erskine Avenue and Ford Street intersection could be realigned to create a continuous north/south street from Crawford Drive to Clonsilla Avenue. Railway crossing problems could be eliminated by using newly acquired land. This would provide better access than High Street or Goodfellow Road because they only extend from Lansdowne Street to Sherbrooke Street. The Goodfellow/ Clonsilla intersection is extremely dangerous. High Street ends at the top of a steep hill on Sherbrooke Street, creating another dangerous intersection. The north half of High Street is very narrow and does not have curbs or gutters.
