Lack of permanent marine pilot a concern for mayor

Mayor Jack Mussallem is concerned there are no marine pilots living in Prince Rupert and has asked City staff to write a letter to the Pacific Pilotage Authority requesting that a marine pilot be permanently based in Prince Rupert.

Hey Jack

Maybe if you concentrated on dealing with lowering taxes and dealing with the many social issues that face Prince Rupert, someone with a Pilot’s license may in fact be interested in moving to the community. I understand that convenient access to recycling facilities on weekends is a must have for many Pilots.

Might be an idea there to maybe try and attract some industrial development that will create a larger number of jobs for the lists of the unemployed in town, rather than concentrating on a couple of high paying jobs in a rather select industry.

Just saying Jack!

Jack marine pilots cant afford you property taxes in Prince Rupert !!!

Uh yes they can … haha!
