Ambulance attendants were unable to revive a man who fell into the water at Discovery Harbour Marina Wednesday morning. At approximately 2:30 a.m. the Campbell River RCMP and BC Ambulance Service responded to a report of a male who had fallen in the water at the Discovery Harbour Marina. The male was located in the water by his companions and pulled out onto the dock. Medical intervention was unsuccessful at reviving him and he was pronounced deceased at the scene. “Alcohol was believed to be a factor in this unfortunate incident,” said Staff Sgt. Troy Beauregard of the Campbell River RCMP. The deceased was not a Campbell River or area resident. His name is not being released at the request of the family. Police along with the BC Coroner’s service continue to investigate.

Aerial magnetic survey to begin Geo Data Solutions GDS Inc. has been selected to fly the airborne magnetic survey for the 2012 Northern Vancouver Island (NVI) Exploration Geoscience Project. The survey will be flown along northeastsouthwest lines spaced 250 m apart. The survey is expected to start this month and Geoscience BC anticipates being able to release this new data set in early 2013. The NVI Exploration Geoscience project was recently announced by Geoscience BC and the Island Coastal Eco-
nomic Trust (ICET), with up to $530,000 in funding from Geoscience BC, and up to $400,000 from ICET for a total project budget of $930,000. In addition, the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation has provided generous support for stakeholder engagement in the project development phase, through the Campbell River Regional Economic Pilot initiative. “In Canada Starts Here: The BC Jobs Plan, we made a commitment to capitalize on our natural advan-

tages and increase regional investment and job creation,” said Pat Bell, B.C. Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation. “The Campbell River re gional economic investment pilot has made it clear that collecting and sharing this survey data is crucial and Geoscience BC and the Island Coastal Economic Trust continue to take the necessary steps toward attracting investment and family-supporting jobs to northern Vancouver Island.” The NVI Exploration
Geoscience project is designed to generate new geoscience data for northern Vancouver Island, including the communities of Campbell River, Port Hardy, Port McNeill, Alert Bay, Port Alice and Zeballos. This new regional information will help attract mineral exploration interest and investment, increase the understanding of the mineral potential, and provide local First Nations and communities with more information on the geology in their area.

City council gave the green light to the repair and maintenance of the Simms Creek culvert under Galerno Road but not before getting an earful from a former road construction supervisor. Mike Gage kicked off Tuesday night’s council meeting and lambasted city staff for its “incompetence.” Gage, who supervised road construction for 25 years, had his own thoughts on the Simms Creek culvert, which city staff say is deteriorating and needs replacing as soon as possible. “In my opinion, the culvert over Simms Creek is not about to fail and collapse as some city staff have suggested,” Gage said. “I’ve dealt with similar projects many times. The integrity of the culvert is good and should last 25 years before being replaced, and then it should be replaced by an open bottom, gravel-lined arch type structure.” Instead, Mayor Walter Jakeway said the city will put a liner inside the culvert and install grout at either end, in between the two pipes. At Tuesday’s meeting, council awarded the project to McElhanney Consulting Services Ltd. at a price tag of $193,455 to come from the city’s Storm Water Parcel. The culvert was not scheduled for repair until next year, but an evaluation in June by a city consultant determined the culvert has broken down to the point it can no longer carry the applied loads – vehicles, a water main, a gravity
sanitary sewer, a concrete encased Telus duct bank and a natural gas main. Speed bumps, a concrete divider and a 30 kilometre per hour speed zone were installed in an attempt to slow down traffic and prevent further deterioration of the culvert. Gage said those measures are ineffective and only serve to annoy motorists. “The present concrete divider and speed bumps only serve to aggravate the users of Galerno road,” Gage said. “I would have thought speed bumps would be the last thing to be installed there, they should just leave it the way it is and rather than travel across that area if it so fragile, it (should not have vehicles on it period), not just slow down and have the impact of 35 to 40 tonne loads on it.” Gage continued calling out city hall. “There never was so little done, with so many staff,” Gage said. “And to council, you should been seen as being concerned about the expenditures that support your constituents and not so much in favour of any tenure for any incompetent staff.” Later in the meeting, Coun. Claire Moglove took exception to Gage’s comments and his “denigration” of staff. “For someone from the public to come to this meeting and call our staff incompetent is inappropriate,” Moglove said. “You might disagree with staff, I might disagree with staff, but to call them incompetent is totally inappropriate and I would hope that next time the chair (mayor) would say something.”

Tower’s radiation levels worry city councillor Also seen as a threat to green space KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Te l u s w a n t s t o improve cellphone service around Willow Point but one councillor is concerned the equipment needed could pose a cancer risk to the community. Telus made a presentation to city council Tuesday night, proposing to put up a cell phone tower in Willow Point Park, near the baseball field off of Parkway Road. “Telus is proposing to build a 30-metre mono pole at Willow Point park adjacent to the Sportsplex, in an area where the current cellular coverage is very poor – we get a lot of complaints,” said Brent Shannon, of Medallion Land Services on behalf of Telus. “The
BECOME A CAMPBELL RIVER FILLER MIRROR CARRIER
feedback is that it will be an improvement to the area.” City staff, working with Telus, recommended the phone company install its free-standing tower off the side of the baseball diamond and the allweather field, adjacent to the treed area near the back nine of the disc golf course. That set off alarm bells for Coun. Larry Samson. “I think this is the wrong site,” Samson said. “The last thing I think we want to do, with the uncertainty around radiation levels, is put a tower site in our parks so the city can collect a certain amount of revenue. I think we have to be very careful. There’s been studies done for the last decade and longer on the harmful effects of radiation that have been affiliated with or linked to these cell towers. To put it in our parks is just wrong.” According to the Canadian Cancer Society, the World Health
Organization organized a workshop in 2005 on cell phone towers and wireless networks to review health risks associated with radiofrequency energy. According to the Cancer Society’s website, it determined “that current evidence doesn’t show any short-term or long-term health effects from the signals produced by cell phone towers. However, ongoing research is still looking at the relationship between cancer and radiofrequency exposure from all sources.” Coun. Mary Storry was also concerned about the location, and wondered if the tower would take away from the park. “The tower itself is quite small and innocuous but the 10 meter x 10 metre fence (that would surround the tower) and the access road or pathway, I’m just wondering if we’re going to lose too much of our park space,” she said. “I’d really like to walk out there in the park and just pace it

out. I’d just like to go out and have a look at it. I’m not opposed to putting up the tower, I just need to go out and have a peek.” Shannon said Telus is not set on the location that went before council, but that it was a spot recommended by city staff. “This wasn’t even Telus’ preferred loca-
tion the reality is we’re pretty open to this location,” he said. “It will provide coverage for the people who are currently screaming for it. It’s one option, it doesn’t have to be there.” The spot Telus liked “was right in the same approximate area but this one is more tucked away into the trees,” Shannon
said. “These types of towers are in parks all across Canada but that doesn’t mean it has to be in a park in Campbell River. “We were working with city staff (in the hopes) it would be a positive installation that would benefit the community.” Coun. Andy Adams said in consideration
of Samson’s concerns about the tower location and Storry’s comments, he would like to refer the issue back to city staff for a report on possible locations and impacts. Stor ry made the motion to put off any decision on the cell tower pending the staff report, which was passed by council.

Extreme fire hazard rating in local woods ALISTAIR TAYLOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Conditions are kindling dry in the woods around Campbell River. Wildfire BC listed the forest fire hazard for the area west of Campbell River as extreme yesterday. “We haven’t had any
appreciable, steady precipitation in that area,” said fire information officer Donna MacPherson. What’s more, the nights have been dry as well, as evidenced by no dew on the ground in the mornings. Overnight condensation allows the forest to recover somewhat but
with dryness persisting into the night, the forest is not recovering. An extreme rating means extremely dry forest fuels and the fire risk is very serious. New fires will start easily, spread rapidly, and challenge fire suppression efforts. General forest activi-
ties may be restricted, including open burning, industrial activities and campfires. So far, there has been no significant fires in the area and part of the reason for that has been the absence of lightning strikes in the North Island, unlike the south Island and the Lower Mainland.
CRYSA Development Program Police busy 3X4 3X4 In the last week FALL 2012 police responded to 302 calls for
Any fire activity there is has been caused by people. “The more careful people are, the less chance we have of having (a fire),” MacPherson said. MacPherson said that despite the extreme fire hazard rating, things are about normal for this time of the
year. There usually is a 6-8 week period in late summer where conditions get tinder dry. “It’s about average for this time of year,” MacPherson said. So far, no campfire bans have been put in place and people can help in preventing the need for one. Any fire activity there is has
not been caused by campfires so as long as people are proving to be careful with their fires, the fire centre can hold off longer before placing a ban. Hot dry weather is expected to continue today with temperatures of 29 degrees predicted into the weekend.

Council makes another exception KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Council got tied up trying to smooth things over with a building developer for the second meeting in a row Tuesday night. This time around council found itself making an exception to a city bylaw in order to keep applicant Brett Giese’s four-storey, 4 7 - u n i t ap a r t m e n t project on the corner of Dogwood and Merecroft, on track. At the council meeting prior, on July 24, council scratched a clause in Seymour Pacific’s development permit to appease the developer. In Giese’s case, there was a difference of opinion between the developer and city staff centred around underground power lines and who should be responsible for picking up the tab. Giese had already been granted a development permit by council last month but when he got to the building permit stage, he was informed by city staff that a bylaw requires he pay for the installation of underground wiring – a project that could cost Giese up to $77,150. “The Subdivision
and Development Servicing Bylaw No. 3419, 2010 outlines various off-site works and services that are required through a subdivision or at a building permit stage,” said Ross Blackwell, city land use manager. “The reason for the bylaw is to achieve the broader community objective whereby the developer, as opposed to the taxpayer, pays for the infrastructure improvements associated with development.” M o n e y f ro m t h e developers then goes into a city account set aside for major infrastructure projects. In this case, the city wants to bank funds to move power lines underground in order to expand the Dogwood and Merecroft intersection to allow for dedicated left-turn lanes. But Giese said that’s a huge financial burden, as he’s expected to put up a 125 per cent bond to the city to ensure the landscaping plans match with the work that’s actually done, plus 100 per cent of the costs to do the actual landscaping. G i e s e, w h o h a s applied for three other development permits in Campbell River said he has never had to pay for underground wir-
ing before and wonders why now. “The representation has been made repeatedly that staff is trying to create a level playing field for all developments,” Giese said. “There hasn’t been a level playing field since the bylaw was passed two years ago, and I do not understand how can staff decide that the next development per mit that walks through the door will be the one to set an example for all of the others.” Giese said he’s being treated unfairly and the bylaw has not been applied to other recent projects in the city including the new Tyee Chevrolet showroom, Shar-Kare Mini Storage, Rose Harbour transition shelter on Dogwood, and a new car wash on Ironwood Road. “I am merely requesting that I be included on the level playing field and treated fairly by having local bylaws applied to me the same as they have been to other developers and land owners,” said Giese, who was left to wonder whether he should move forward with his apartment project at all. Blackwell said the Shar-Kare developer
did not pay for underground wiring because overhead lines were already located on the opposite side of the street. As for Rose Harbour, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the city and BC Housing, which included a commitment by the city to cover site servicing and development costs. With the car wash, a portion of the frontage was dedicated to the city, which brought the development below the thresholds to trigger the bylaw. And in the case of Tyee Chevrolet, Blackwell admitted underground wiring should have been required, but it got missed in the building planning stage, an omission by city staff. Staff recommended Giese be exempt from paying for underground wiring on the Merecroft portion of his property which cuts in and around Telus’ property which includes a statutory right-of-way and 68.8 metres of combined frontage along Merecroft and Dogwood. But Giese wanted council to make an exception for his entire property, including the 77.9 metres his proposed building will run along Dogwood Street.
Chris Osbourne, planner for the city, said in a report to council that an argument could be made to not consider the Telus right-of-way on the site and to waive underground wiring costs along that length but warned that relieving Giese from the entire bylaw could be precedent setting. Council, however, s y m p at h i z e d w i t h Giese. “I’ve sat on various renditions of various commissions, committees, and task forces and the one thing that has been consistent is fairness, consistency, certainty and that it’s realistic,” Coun. Andy Adams said. “And what I’m seeing here, while I appreciate what staff is doing, I don’t think this is any fault of staff with the interpretation, I think it’s the bylaw itself and while the bylaw was well-intended, I don’t think it really is realistic in certain portions. When you drive down the Dogwood corridor... from 9th Avenue all the way to Robron, there isn’t a single business or developer that has had to do this contribution.” Council exempted Giese from paying for the underground wiring costs.

Our View
Splitting the Comox Valley not the end of the world In changes stemming from new population statistics in the most recent census, a proposed new federal riding boundary would bisect Courtenay along Highway 19A. While Comox and east Courtenay would remain in Vancouver Island We say: Dividing North, the other half of Courtenay communities up in and Cumberland would be part of a new-look Nanaimo-Alberni riding. electoral ridings While it’s unsettling to think is not a new thing people on one side of the Fifth Street Bridge would have one MP and those across the Courtenay River would be represented by another (possibly from a different political party), it would not be the end of the world.
There’s plenty of precedent in Canada for this type of arrangement. Prince George has, for example, been divided into three federal ridings for years. One concern here would be that a Nanaimo-based MP might not understand or appreciate Comox Valley issues and concerns. Nanaimo residents might feel the same way if a Comox Valley candidate is elected to represent the riding. This is nothing new. John Duncan and Catherine Bell in recent years have had to represent constituents from Fanny Bay to Port Hardy in sprawling Vancouver Island North. Suspicious minds might wonder, though, if shifting left-of-centre voters in Cumberland and the islands might give a Tory in Vancouver Island North a better
chance to win. Under the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act, ridings are regularly redrawn to ensure they are as close to the average population as reasonably possible. As part of the current proposals, B.C. would gain six electoral districts due to population increases. For details, visit www.federalredistribution.ca. You can share your opinion at a public hearing Oct. 15 at 7 p.m. at Crown Isle in Courtenay.

Let’s get going on Raven Filed for publication with the Mirror Dear Premier Christy Clark, As you know, recently Geoscience BC and Island Coastal Economic Trust have provided $930,000 of funding to generate new, leading edge, technical geoscience data for northern Vancouver Island. While speaking to people in Campbell River, Minister of Jobs, Tourism, & Innovation, Pat Bell has been quoted saying “This initiative by itself, could be a major driver for your economy.” I fully agree with Minister Bell, and I am ardently waiting for this to come to fruition. I strongly believe that Campbell River could be a mining hub for the north island. We have the resources and the expertise to explore and mine these resources under strict environmental regulations. Providing $930,000 in funding is wonderful, but if the data collected goes nowhere in terms of developing the resources because of environmentalist nonsense, it will be a complete waste for the taxpayers of B.C. Premier, I request and encourage you to show your loyal constituents and all the people of Vancouver Continued on A9

Just say no to the Northern Gateway Pipeline
Alistair Taylor Out On A Limb
The Northern Gateway Pipeline issue could potentially be a psychological watershed moment for livability in British Columbia. Polls indicate that support for the pipeline, on condition that it brings economic benefit to the province, is somewhere around 50 per cent. The number surprises me, I think it’s less. But there’s potential that this issue could redefine this province from an environmental point of view. The reason being, that opposition to the pipeline is pretty strong and pretty pervasive. Even a person I know as a staunch political conservative is against it. B.C. Premier Christy Clark is hedg-
ing her bets on it. Sure, her government’s position is on approving the pipeline if five conditions are met – one of them being a greater share in the financial benefits – but anything that doesn’t involve the Liberals falling all over themselves to accommodate a major development is a surprise. What’s so universally obvious in this proposal is the realization that one of the most beautiful corners of the world is in danger here. The Yellowhead Highway cuts across the province following roughly the route this pipeline would take. I’ve driven this route many times and having in-laws in Prince Rupert, I know that the drive from that port town to Ter-
race, B.C. along the Skeena River is one of the most spectacular drives in the province and, therefore, the world. This region also forms the core of the Y2Y – Yellowhead to Yukon – conservation initiative which “seeks to preserve and maintain the wildlife, native plants, wilderness and natural processes of the mountainous region from Yellowstone National Park to the Yukon Territory.” The province of British Columbia has also implemented a complex conservation/land use management plan in the Muskwa-Kechika region of the province, just north of the pipeline route. This is spectacular wilderness of
which, as we all know, there is less and less in the world. And that’s why I think this is a watershed moment. An analogy that illustrates my point on this is what the voters in the City of Vancouver did in the 1960s. Residents opposed a freeway cutting through the centre of the city, which virtually every North American city was doing at the time. It forever changed the way Vancouver evolved and is in no small part responsible for it being continually judged one of the world’s most liveable cities. Now, the Northern Gateway issue is on a much larger scale but the psychological moment is no less defining. I think people in this province Continued on A9

Coal: Show investors they’re welcome
Continued from A8 Island that your government is not just paying us lip service. Please show us that you are serious about making exploration and mining a priority and reality by pushing through the approval
of the Raven Underground Coal Project once you have received t h e E nv i r o n m e n t Assessment Application. Let’s get going. We need a major boost to our economy. We need to show investors that they are welcome
here in B.C. We need to ensure the process is thorough, but not arduous. Right now investors are extremely cautious to invest in B.C., as all the red tape is extremely costly and cumbersome.
Minister Bell conservatively estimates exploration could provide 200-300 jobs by Spring 2013. The Raven Underground Coal Project estimates it would provide 800 local jobs. We need these jobs,
and the economy of B.C. needs this investment. This will only occur with the full assistance and support of our B.C. government. Please show your support. Sandra Karason

Taylor: Appreciate what’s at stake Continued from A8 want to say no to this project. And that will send a huge message to the country and the world that for once, people get it that sometimes natural values outweigh developmental benefits. It’s a huge statement made loud and clear. Already there are demonstrations going on in the region stating opposition to the project. If it looks like it’s going to go ahead, those demonstrations will get louder, clearer and, perhaps, uglier.
The response from Alberta premier Alison Redford to Clark’s conditions has been typical of the arrogance of big oil and its supporters. They dismissively say, of course there will be environmental safeguards on the project and of course there will be community consultation. That’s easy for them to give lip service. But the demand that British Columbia get a larger share of the economic benefits than they’re entitled to is really sticking in their
craw. And it may be the deal breaker. Which, of course, for many of us, is just fine. Break the deal. Clark is not likely a closet environmentalist so I don’t know if she is actually playing both sides of the fence by approving the plan by imposing a potentially deal-breaking condition. Then at the end she can tell the business community she tried to make it work while the softer environmentalist constituency (i.e., mainstream residents of
B.C.) can be appeased with the fact that the project just died. If you’ve still got summer holidays coming to you, I suggest you take the ferry to Rupert, drive along the Skeena River then head up the Alaska Highway to the Yukon and see just what’s at stake. The cliche “so-and-so’s Serengeti” is used far
too much these days but the northern half of this province is as wild as it gets in this world and to spew oil all over it would be a disgrace. You don’t have to be an environmentalist to appreciate this region’s natural values. And appreciate them over potential industrial revenue.

Mayor’s attempt at fairness moot Staff’s control over design at issue KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
An attempt by the mayor to achieve fairness between developers was shot down at a council meeting Tuesday night. Mayor Walter Jakeway re-introduced a development permit – approved by council on July 24 – for the owner of the former Willow Point Mazda building. Jakeway wanted to scratch a paragraph approved by council that gave approval to the permit but also allowed the city’s general manager of operations the authority to approve building colour, materials and lighting. Jakeway said he
wanted to remove that clause in order to make the development per mit conditions match with Seymour Pacific’s, which was approved by council that same night. “We ended up removing the second paragraph. So if we could make the two texts the same...,” Jakeway said, imploring one of the councillors to make that motion. “To make it fair for the two projects.” Coun. Andy Adams did make a motion to remove the paragraph from the former Mazda development permit, but it wound up being withdrawn. Ross Blackwell, the
city’s land use manager, explained that the clause was only in applicant Orla Jensen’s development permit because the city had not yet received information pertaining to colour, materials, and lighting before it went before council. Blackwell brought the development permit forward without that information in order to fast-track the process for Jensen. Blackwell said the information required was brought to the city the day after the meeting, making it unnecessary for the city’s general manager of operations to make any decisions around colour, building mate-

rials, and lighting, as was laid out in the paragraph Jakeway wanted removed. “So if I understand correctly, this motion is moot and all the material under this controversial paragraph has been supplied?” Moglove asked. “ T h a t ’s e n t i r e l y correct,” Blackwell replied. City Manager Andy Laidlaw recommended council withdraw its motion, which it did. “To expedite this and not put up any obstacles, my recommendation would be to remove the motion,” Laidlaw said. Jensen’s development per mit was
issued by council last month to redevelop the former Coastline Mazda building into a mixed commercial, retail and office complex. Coastline Mazda is now located across the bridge at the north end of Campbell River, along the Island highway.

Flu shots save lives, protect patients; B.C. offers them for free DR. PERRY KENDALL PROVINCIAL HEALTH OFFICER
As summer vacations come to an end, and we begin to look forward to the fall, it is a good time to start thinking about how to best protect ourselves and our loved ones from illnesses like influenza. The Public Health Agency of Canada estimates that between 2,000 and 8,000 Canadians die every year from influenza and its complications. B.C. provides the flu shot for free each year to those considered at higher risk of developing influenza complications, or those who care for them. That list includes: ■ People over age 65 and their caregivers. ■ Children and adults with chronic health conditions and their household contacts. ■ Health-care workers. ■ Emerg ency responders. ■ Healthy children aged six months-five years. ■ Household contacts and caregivers of children aged zero-five years. ■ Pregnant women who will be in their third trimester during the influenza season. ■ Residents of nursing homes and other chronic-care facilities. ■ Aboriginal peoples. ■ People who are very obese Even if you are not considered a person of high risk, if you regularly interact with or work around someone who is, I strongly encourage you to get vaccinated for their sake. High-risk populations can suffer severe consequences from influenza, including death. Bacterial pneumonia, an infection of the lungs, is the most common complication from influenza, especially in elderly people. It can also lead to more complications for people who have heart,

lung or other health conditions. For these reasons, it is especially important that health-care workers get their flu shot each year, and I would like to acknowl-
edge and thank those health-care workers who do get vaccinated. As a physician myself, I know how important it is to protect patients. All of the major professional health care bod-
ies, such as the College of Registered Nurses of British Columbia, support vaccination of health-care workers. Unfortunately, each year throughout B.C., fewer than 50 per cent
of health-care workers get immunized against influenza. This rate is too low – patients deserve better. Some jurisdictions in the United States have managed to achieve 95
per cent coverage of health-care workers. There is significant evidence in long-term care facilities that high health-care worker influenza vaccine coverage results in dimin-
ished illness and fewer deaths. Getting the flu shot should be considered standard patient safety practice for all health-care workers who come into contact with patients.

Habitat for Humanity looking to form a women’s build team RENÉE ANDOR BLACK PRESS
Habitat for Humanity Vancouver Island North is looking for Campbell River women to form the city’s first ever Women Build team. The pro g ram has already begun in the Comox Valley and the Women Build team there has just launched a new fundraising initiative — and it’s a ‘wonky’ one. Some members of the Comox Valley womenonly team built a children’s playhouse to raffle off, which it very aptly dubbed Wonky House.
“It’s called a Wonky House because every wall, window, roof, everything is off-kilter on purpose,” explained Women Build coordinator Cristi Sacht with a grin, adding Habitat for Humanity Vancouver Island North’s (VIN) build co-ordinator Peter Sanderson gave the women a hand because they didn’t have building experience. “It was a nightmare to try to build because nothing’s square and so we literally were flying by the seat of our pants and of course, none of us have technically built anything, so it was a really great exercise for us to
kind of get in there, use the tools.” The carpentry practice will come in handy because not only are these women responsible for raising $100,000, but they are also responsible for building half of one of three duplexes in Habitat for Humanity VIN’s housing project to help local families obtain their own homes. The Wonky House is not gender specific, and features strange angles with the windows, walls and roofline set askew. Local artist Kelly Sart painted butterflies, flowers and bees on the walls on the inside with

Members of the Women’s Build team in the Comox Valley are proud to show off their Wonky House, a playhouse for children that will be raffled off to support a Habitat for Humanity build to benefit a low-income family. a chalkboard painted blue sky background so kids can draw on the walls with chalk. Raffle tickets for the
house are a minimum $5 donation and people can check out the house at various community events around the Val-
ley. According to Sacht, tickets will be available until the Women Build team dedicates its house to the new homeowner, which will likely be next Mother’s Day. Five sub-teams of
women have signed up for the Women Build team, and about $22,000 has been raised. Sacht said the teams are doing well, but she would like to see a total of 10 teams on board with a total of 200 women. Teams should be about 10 or more women, but some are bigger; right now about 100 women are involved in the project, and Sacht wants to get that number to 200. She’s looking for women from Campbell River to participate in Habitat for Humanity projects here and she’s also looking for more corporate teams.

Missing from the photo was Kariann Alcorn, Timberline (Camosun College Arts & Science). Funds for the Bursaries come from the Campbell River Rotary Club Foundation, The fund has grown to six figures - mostly due to donations from club members and fundraisers within the club. Interest from the funds, augmented by bingo funds, now allow the club to award up to nine Bursaries per year. Approximately two hundred Campbell River area grads have benefited from Bursaries from the club.

With the arrival of warmer weather across the South Coast, RCMP are once again renewing their appeal to the community to be vigilant when it comes to basic crime prevention. Police across B.C. have noticed a significant number of insecure premises which present themselves as crimes of opportunity for burgeoning thieves. A common method of entry for residential break and enters during the summer is through open doors, windows, or garages. “Please take the necessary simple steps to prevent your summer holidays for being memorable for the wrong reasons,” says Surrey RCMP Sgt. Drew Grainger. “Protect your property to avoid falling victim to an opportunistic thief.” Last summer, RCMP in Surrey nabbed a pair of prolific property crime offenders that were targeting homes in that city. Many of the homes were ransacked during the day when homeowners were either at work or away on vacation. To ensure a “Safer Summer”, RCMP recommend making sure door and window locks are working and in use, locking the door while working in the yard, closing and locking all windows each time you leave your home, and arranging for a caretaker when on vacation.

Drive Smart BC Your Courtesy is Appreciated I watched a 2X14 commercial truck begin to leave the brake check as I approached the summit of Highway 4 outside of Port Alberni today. I knew that if the driver accelerated as he was entitled to I would have to follow him for a few kilometers of downhill grade at speeds significantly lower than the 80 km/h speed limit. I wasn’t in a hurry, but I wasn’t looking forward to this either. TYEE CHEV This driver was watching his mirrors and saw me approach. Instead of continuing to accelerate he maintained his speed instead and let me by before pulling into the through lane. I waved my thanks as I got close to the cab and received a wave in return. This driver was a true gentleman and put my convenience ahead of his right of way. The incident was a small one in the great scheme of things, but I appreciated the gesture and felt good that this driver would care enough to do something nice for a stranger. It is definitely a stark contrast to the usual selfish driving behaviours that I see going on around me every day as I drive. Why can’t we all be like this man? Driver psychology is very difficult to influence. Traffic tickets, advertising campaigns and learning from the experience of others may not have a strong effect as we are all better than average drivers and can easily blame others as the source of the problem. However, if we could all try to follow this fellow’s example our highways could be a better and safer place to be. The author is a retired constable with many years of traffic enforcement experience.

Registration for New Students All new students must register by Friday, August 31 to be enrolled in their neighbourhood school (provided the appropriate program, space and resources are available). This includes students entering kindergarten or the public school system for the ¿rst time; students who have moved from another school district; and students who have moved to a new school catchment area from a previous Campbell River school.
Elementary Schools (Gr. K - 5) Elementary schools will be open for registration starting on Monday, August 27. For speci¿c hours of operation, please contact the school directly. To register for kindergarten, you must provide your child’s birth certi¿cate.
Middle Schools (Gr. 6 - 8) Counsellors will be available from Monday, August 27 to Friday, August 31 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for new registrations. To schedule an appointment, please contact the school directly.
Carihi Secondary (Gr. 9 - 12) Counsellors will be available from Monday, August 27 to Friday, August 31 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for new registrations. To schedule an appointment, phone the school at (250) 2866282.

To schedule an appointment, phone the school at (250) 9239500.
Late Enrolling Students In accordance with policy J-19, students who register after Wednesday, August 29 will have their name placed on the school assignment list, with priority of enrolment dependent on the order in which the application was received at the school’s main of¿ce. If the school is not able to accommodate the student, they will be required to attend a nearby school. Late transfer applicants will not have their application reviewed until September enrolments are con¿rmed.
Cross-Boundary Transfers Students with approved cross-boundary requests are to attend their approved school, starting the ¿rst week that school is back in session. Those who have requested a transfer, but have not yet been approved, or are on a wait list, are to attend their present school until they receive information on their request (the latest date of noti¿cation is September 7). Late requests may be submitted, in writing with the proper form, but students will be added to the wait list and are to attend their present school until noti¿ed.
Returning Late from Vacation? Students already registered, but who will be returning late from summer vacation must advise their school, in writing, by August 31 to ensure that they are included in the school’s enrolment count. Students who are not in attendance the ¿rst week of school will be withdrawn unless there has been contact with the school.
Class Lists It is unlikely that class lists and school organization will be ¿nalized before September 7. We ask for your support and patience while this very complex process is completed.
School Supplies Supply lists are available from local retailers.

The River City Cycle Club (RCCC), Campbell River is once again looking to award money to an aspiring young cyclist. The money can be used for training, clinics, workshops, equipment or travel to and from an event. This award applies to all cycling disciplines; road, mountain, cyclocross or BMX. Last year’s recipient was Nicolas Manders who was in grade 12 at Carihi. In 2011 he participated in the BC Cup cross country race series but wanted to improve his performance. Manders used the money to obtain a formalized training program and to support travel to and from the races that take place across B.C. As a result Manders placed third in the first race in Surrey; second in the next race at Bear Mountain and currently holds first place in the overall standings in his age group. There is $500 available this year to an eligible applicant who is: ■ 25 years of age or younger as of Dec. 31, 2012. ■ They must either be a member in good standing of the River City Cycling club or of Cycling BC. ■ They must reside in the City of Campbell River or the Strathcona Regional District ■ They must have demonstrated a commitment to the sport of cycling. The application deadline is Sept. 28, 2011. Application forms can be downloaded from the River City Cycle Club web site at www.rivercitycycle.ca (Downloads).

Planning for Life Changes Thinking of Buying a Second Home? 2X14 If you have been thinking of buying a second home then you need to know the options available. The good news is that you can purchase a second home with 5% down using the same set of qualifications and Mike Parkinson requirements as your primary residence. And as long as you and the property qualify you can still get the same great interest rates as well. A second home is classified as a second residence and not a rental – this is very important. In order to qualify as a second home there are some requirements that need to be met. You or a relative of yours must intend to occupy the property at some point during the year on a rent free basis. If you plan to rent the property out then it is not considered a second home and is therefore subject to different qualification rules – this would be classified as a rental property and would require more down payment. Your income would be required to service the new mortgage and no income from the property would be considered. If you need rental income to help service the debt then you would need to treat the property as a rental. While there are great options to help you buy a second home, it is important to know the information up front in to make sure you and the property qualify. Please call me any time if you have any questions or need any financing assistance.
PLANNING FOR LIFE
Deas dominates motorcycles First Insurance sponsored a beautiful night of racing at Saratoga Speedway. The Bomber cars, Old Timers, I.M.C.A Modifieds and the Motorcycles were all on the racing card on Saturday Jim Deas had a great night in the Motorcycle division, dominating the field to win all three races featured on Saturday. Tim Openshaw and Dano Bryant were involved in a big accident in the I.M.C.A
Modifieds, breaking Bryant’s rear axle. Openshaw managed to get his car back together for the main event and dominated it, leading all 15 laps of the feature race. Eight Old Timers showed up for their first appearance of the 2012 season. James Miller was having an average night up until the main event. Miller found himself in first on lap 7 and he never looked back from there. Duane Zeinstra was chasing
him but he randomly pulled off the track on lap 14 due to mechanical issues, giving the win to Miller. Stewart came into Saturday with a 162 point lead in the Bomber car division. Lee qualified the fastest, won the reverse heat. Lee and Travis Stevenson battled for first and second in the 30 lap main event, but Lee would eventually get around Stevenson and he wouldn’t look back from there, spreading
his points lead even farther. Extra laps...Next weekend marks Saratoga Speedway’s fourth annual bikini contest. This year they are expecting 20-30 girls to compete for the $1,000 grand prize. First runner-up will receive $500, and the second runner-up will receive $250. Next weekend also marks the second Crash to Pass boat race of the 2012 season. The Hornet cars, figure 8’s and the

Hacky sack diplomacy During their trip to Guatemala, Campbell River highschools students in International Co-op program visited the small community that makes the Timberline grad hacky sacks each year. And they took the Mirror’s Canada Day flag cover with them. The students’ support of the hacky sack production helped build a school and church for the community. These ladies work every Saturday all year to make the hacky sacks and the money is donated to the school and church building.
