NOVEMBER 24th. 1938 No. 26 liM "WWW GARIBALDI The opening to traffic of the Lions' Gate Bridge has ohce"* more brought to the fore the auestion.of a road to Garibaldi, and the reservation , and development of th a t area as a park. I'Yom every angle it is entirely desirable that such ,a road should be constructed, and the sooner the better. In the first place it would help to i^lieve unemployment, AvJiichJsAhe*most-serious-<iueation"faeing-Ganadal-today--That ̂ the unemployed m ust be fed and clothed and" hpuscid goes without saying, a'nd it is better both for them *and the country as a whole th a t they should be occupied a t work which will pve th^ni a living and the Goverjiment some return. On this Pacific Coast 1 the unemployment Situation tends to be particularly-acute-during-the- colder--weather,-chiiefly-~on~ac-~- coLint of the mildness of the temperatures and the fact that British Columbia is so largely undeveloped. Outside Greater Vancouver and other towns there is little work to be found in the winter, and men who are horheless and hungry cannot, be blamed for seeking a mild climate. Therefore, it would be well if work on the road could be started this ivinter. Secondl})', the tourist industry is one of Canada's la rg e s t ' sources of revehue. Moreover, it is doubly profitable, because most of the money is not our own but tha t of the American, tourist. For Canada has more to offer in the way of beauty and grandeur of scenery than have our neighbors to the south, and, as it JiappenS, .the mbSt beautiful and the grandest of that scenery is to be found within the confines of our own province. . • • .......... - * , Speaking from a.purely utilitarian standpoint, the chief difference^ between"British'Columbia~iand"the"prairie'provinces*"' is tha t we are long on scenery and short on arable land,'while the reverse is true of them. Consequently, it is up to us to capitalize on the.'advantages with which we have been endowed by nature. -- .-That means-roads and more roads.--Unfortunately, as in. all mountainous cqun̂ ^̂ ̂ buildingas very expensive with At-the.sam e. time,"*t6^^^ ̂ are not coming to enjoy and ANNUAL MEETING HORTICULTURAL ASS'N ,us view our scenery, unless' they can travel, to it on first c l^ s roads.
