Available in the archival database, CRAD, the following day. More than 100 Canyon residents are going to keep trying for natural gas service in their community despite an earlier failure a few years ago. Grace Gilmour, who instigated a petition asking for natural gas service, managed to collect 100 signatures in six days at the Canyon Country Store. According to Gilmour, the petition with its 100 signatures was forwarded to the RDCK at the end of Sept-ember. However, Masuch has not seen anything on it.
Natural gas is an energy source used to heat homes and cook food, among other uses.
Steve Weatherbe, a communications officer with the Forests Ministry in Victoria, said some areas of the province have had success fighting the pine beetle by spraying trees with pheremone. The chemical mimicks the effects of the pine beetle and attracts a large number of beetles to one tree, thereby minimizing damage to large areas of forest.
