From the years 1953-1958, Mike Kinnear took photos during his school years, until graduation, while working for Fred Ryan Ltd. after school and holidays. Photos for him was a hobby, and he took many photos of the smelter and townsite as it grew around him. Mike also took a number of photos for the Kitimat Northern Sentinel, during the Ken Brumley and Pixie Meldrum years as editors. Mike and his family left Kitimat in 1958, but he spent the best part of 40 years in the photographic field, mainly in the retail/wholesale part of the photo industry.

Photograph of the Haisla overpass was officially opened Friday by the first person to use it, Mrs.D. Linton. 87 Swan, who pushed a pram across the elevated walkway the first day the ramp was completed. At the ceremony Friday, Reeve Matt Gooding asked Mrs. Linton to cute the ribbon to make the opening of the structure. After snipping the big red bow, Mrs. Linton said she was sure it would be a boon to all pedestrians but particularly mothers with small children.
