Quesnel News - May 29th edition

1) North Cariboo seniors' raise alarm bell over Seniors Services in Quesnel - read here

Editor's Note - interesting to see this.  On Senior Services - you hear more of this in Central/South Cariboo with Interior Health.  

2) Quesnel Councillor Sushil Thapar protests Microbrewery in Quesnel - read here

Editor's Note - I don't share Councillor Thapar's logic here.  As Quesnel Staff note - the Microbrewery would use the same or less water than an restaurant.  If you are going to look at the issue seriously on the basis on volume of water used then the most fairest test is water metering and a rate structure based on water volume consumed.  If water metering is off the table in Quesnel, then a fair water rate comparison based on sectoral water use is the only fair thing to do
