BC currently has the lowest unemployment rate in the country and is the only province in Canada with a triple-A credit rating from the 3 major international rating agencies. BC led all provinces by having the lowest unemployment rate for 2 years — one of the longest periods in more than a decade. Letter to the editor Re: Random Spartan facts In the column Random Spartan Facts the author Mike Bhangu claims that Spartans where vegetarians. In fact Spartans were anything but vegetarians. There are sever- al accounts from Roman author Aelian and Greek writer Herodotus, among others from that time, who state that Spartans not only ate meat, and lots of it, but that part of their warrior salary was paid in meat rations. Paying warriors and soldiers in part with meat rations was a common custom in ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt. Per- haps Mike Bhangu fell victim to one of the many vegetarian organizations who make the historically erroneous claim that Spartans were “vegan” to promote their agenda of the “perfect” vegan. To relate history as it really happened it is important to remain factual. — Othmar Vohringer MERRITT PICKLEBALL CLUB Playing Monday, Wednesday and Friday 8:30-11:00 am CMS Gym Tuesday 6:30-8:30 pm Merritt Civic Centre and Thursday 6:30-8:30 pm CMS Gym Demo paddles and instructions available.
