[edit] Other meaning of Kelowna Accord needs article

This phrase is more commonly known in BC history as the denouement to the aborted General Strike of the fall of 1983, in reference to a purported agreement between Premier Bill Bennett and IWA boss Jack Munro. It will eventually have an article as part of a series needed to cover the Solidarity Crisis of that year, and it is the prior as well as major association of the term "Kelowna Accord"; maybe not outside BC, but certainly inside it, at least for those of us that were here in '83 (on either side).

[edit] Provisions of the accord(s)

This article really should outline the specific provisions of the accord. As it stands the article doesn't mention how those who drafted the accord intended for it to improve the conditions of Aboriginal peoples. This is important as it would enable the reader to understand why it was so important to Aboriginals. 206.210.17.33 12:49, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
