Starlee Speers-Vernon 107.5 SUNFM:
A snowfall warning didn't seem to dilute the turnout for a rally calling for better water protection in the North Okanagan. Forty people braved the weather in Vernon on Friday to send a message to governments to take full responsibility for water quality. The concern is that effluent is being dumped at the headwaters of Coldstream and Vance creeks at Silver Star Provincial Park, which then flow into Kalamalka Lake. Okanagan-Shuswap Green party candidate Huguette Allen says the group is urging government to stop putting things in the water supply that can't be removed.
