Cone of silence over mill sale No word on deal that was expected to be concluded today BRIAN KIERAN CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
ALISTAIR TAYLOR/THE MIRROR
Hair today, gone...Sept. 25 Francesca Einaudi will donate her locks for love in support of childhood cancer when the Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock arrives at Campbell River Common at 4 p.m. Sept. 25. There will be head shaves, Bounce-a-rama, Thrifty Foods hamburgers and hot dogs and other fun family activities to support the Tour de Rock 1,000 km bike ride by Vancouver Island police officers. Ready to shave heads, will be Carol Chapman’s staff from A Cut Above.
With just hours to go before the scheduled closure of the $8.6 million sale of the Catalyst Paper Elk Falls site, a cone of silence smothers efforts to confirm the status of the deal. Calls Monday and Tuesday to Catalyst Vice President of Marketing and Corporate Responsibility Lyn Brown went unanswered. Calls to the purchaser, Edmonton developer Harold Jahn, owner of Pacifica Deep Sea Terminals Inc., also reached a dead end with his automated answering service declaring that there was “no more room” for voice mail. At Campbell River city hall there was also no information to be had. City Manager Andy Laidlaw said both he and Rivercorp CEO Vic Goodman “have our ears to the ground, but haven’t heard anything.” The sale was announced Aug. 16 and was first scheduled to complete by Sept. 5, however, the date came and went with Catalyst scrambling to clear the property of valuable leftovers. At that time, Brown told the Mirror the closing date for the sale had been extended to Sept. 19. “The Sept. 5 date was very
aggressive, more optimistic than time allowed to complete site preparation work,” Brown said. “This should in no way suggest the sale process won’t be completed,” she added. In August, Catalyst CEO Kevin J. Clarke described Jahn as “an experienced developer with the capacity and an industrial concept that will fully utilize the site’s infrastructure and bring new business and jobs to the region.” Jahn said: “The site is strategically located to serve a variety of marine, light manufacturing, clean energy and distribution uses and we intend to transform it into a dynamic industrial park and port facility with the goal of creating 400 full time jobs in the Campbell River region over the next three years.” The former pulp and paper plant was closed permanently in 2010. Since then, equipment has been decommissioned and demolition work has proceeded to prepare the site for sale. The Elk Falls mill began operation in 1952, and at its peak, produced 784,000 tonnes of pulp, paper and kraft paper annually. For updates on this story, visit www.campbellrivermirror.com

Judge sentences Darcy Kozak to life in prison KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A well-known Campbell River killer gets life in prison with no chance of parole for 23 years for the seconddegree murders of two men. Darcy Kozak was sentenced by Justice
James Williams in Victoria B.C. Supreme Court on Friday for killing Kenneth Robinson, a 45-year-old homeless man from Nanaimo and Kenneth Allan Leask, 44, from Powell River. Kozak was also handed an 11-year concurrent sentence
for the murder of Campbell River’s Luc Dulude whom Kozak met while in jail. Kozak, 40, had already plead guilty Aug. 30 to two counts of second degree murder and one count of manslaughter in Dulude’s death. He was originally
facing three counts of first degree murder. A three-month long trial in B.C. Supreme Court was avoided with Kozak’s guilty pleas. During sentencing, the court heard how Kozak tortured his victims before killing them. Kozak confined, stabbed, burned and

beat Robinson in a trailer near Shawnigan Lake in May 2007. Robinson was then left to die under a tarp, as revenge for allegedly stealing Kozak’s truck. One year later, Kozak, who was angered by Leask spending $5,000 he was given to start a marijuana grow-op, hung Leask upside down and beat him over a period of several days before smothering him with a plastic bag. His body was dumped in the ocean off of Campbell River. Dulude’s body was found in December 2008 in an abandoned commercial building
– a former bakery – in Willow Point. Dulude was a career criminal who moved to Campbell River from Kamloops in August 2008 after being released from prison following his sixth robbery conviction. In the fall of 2008, Dulude was shot in the abdomen by a friend of Kozak’s in a garage in Campbell River. He was wrapped in plastic still alive and his body was put into the back of a pickup truck. His body was found in December 2008 in the abandoned building which was owned

by a company of Janice Bridges – Kozak’s wealthy girlfriend. One week after Dulude’s body was found, Kozak was discovered in a Campbell River motel room in possession of a loaded handgun. He was arrested, charged with weapons offences and later served 30 days in jail after coming up with a plea agreement. In June 2007, Kozak led police on a wild chase near Victoria which resulted in eight accidents. Kozak pleaded guilty to several charges stemming from that incident and received one year in jail, but was given credit for pre-trial custody of seven-and-a-half months. In Friday’s sentencing, Justice Williams set parole at 23 years because he took into account Kozak’s guilty pleas which allowed the families to avoid testifying during a court case. – With files from Paul Rudan

Pay parking meter snag delays Airport revenue KRISTEN DOUGLAS
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The Campbell River airport has lost out on more than two months of extra revenue because of a snag with new pay parking meters. Coun. Andy Adams brought the issue to everyone’s attention at a city council meeting Sept. 11. “I was at the airport this past weekend and they’re (meters) still not functioning,” Adams said. “I’m wondering if we
need to provide some assistance to the Airport Authority to get that going considering that is potential lost revenue.” Paid parking was approved by council in May as a way to generate revenue. The parking meters were expected to go into effect on July 9 but there were problems. “Due to several software malfunctions during the start-up phase, a decision was made to replace the entire machine,” said Tyler Massee, airport
manager, on Monday. “Working with the vendor and airport staff we have resolved the outstanding programming issues.” Massee said the lone meter, located in the parking lot across from the main doors of the airport, was put back into service Monday morning. Adams had been concerned the airport authority was missing out during the twomonth period. “It’s been a long time coming,” he said. “I think every day
they’re missing opportunities.” Daily parking (up to 12 hours) at the airport is $5 while to park for up to 24 hours costs $8. Weekly parking is $40 while monthly parking costs $100 and yearly parking is $600. The first hour, for vehicles dropping off or picking up passengers, is free. Drew Hadfield, the city’s transportation manager, said the prices are in line with other airports. “The changes reflect discussions of the Air-

Debt-elimination strategies Debt is the stealth bomb that erodes ¿nancial stability and even relationships. Debt piles up a little bit at a time and one day you wake up to ¿nd that most of your money is going to servicing debt instead of funding an enjoyable life today and a comfortable retirement tomorrow. To get control of your debt, you need to uncover the real reasons for your debt issues by identifying the behaviour that sunk you deep in debt and take the steps that will keep you from sinking even deeper. The ¿rst two steps to debtelimination are these: stop helplessly watching your debt mount and get proactive; stop spending too much. Here are more basic debtelimination strategies: • Complete a detailed ¿nancial review Agree on ¿nancial life goals that both of you share, understand. Get serious about reducing your debt load by targeting bad debt like high interest credit or retail cards and setting up a debt consolidation/ monthly debt reduction

plan. • Look long-term Establish a realistic ¿nancial strategy for realizing the things that matter to you: saving for your kids’ education and your retirement; paying down your mortgage; and other important life goals. • Apply your Financial plan Your strategies could include: - Establishing an emergency reserve using investments held within a Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs). - Protecting your family with life, critical illness and disability insurance. - Funding your children’s education with Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) eligible investments. - Funding your retirement (and/or your
partner’s retirement) with Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) eligible investments. These are general debt-reduction and money-saving strategies but your situation is unique to you and there will be others that can help relieve your debt burden and enhance your ¿nancial security. So here’s one more strategy that will work for you: talk to your professional advisor who has the expertise and perspective to develop the perfect plan for you.

Garbage dump closure approved KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A plan that will see Campbell River’s landfill shutdown and the Comox Valley’s dump expanded was approved by the Comox Strathcona Waste Management Board last Thursday. The new Solid Waste Management Plan, which will gover n waste management for the next 10 years, will be forwarded to local governments and First Nations for support before it’s sent to the Ministry of Environment for final approval by Nov. 30. Under the plan, the Comox Strathcona area will be served by one landfill – in Cumberland. That option was one of three shortlisted but proved to be the cheapest choice at just more
than $175 million over 30 years. The cost to taxpayers is expected to be $41 per year. Expanding just the Campbell River dump would cost almost $190 million over the same period while expanding both facilities would be more than $185 million. Campbell River’s landfill will go through the closure process within the next five years, but it will still function as a transfer station once it’s closed, meaning people can still drop their garbage off at the dump. That waste will then be trucked to the Cumberland landfill as per the current procedure. Tom Boatman, the Comox Strathcona solid waste manager, said a few 20-tonne truckloads of waste as well as two trucks a month carrying yard
waste have been sent to Cumberland since the transfer station opened in Campbell River this spring. Boatman said the closure process will begin in Campbell River next year. “For Campbell River we plan on partially closing the landfill in 2013,� Boatman said. “We’ll be installing a gas extraction in 2013, improving the storm water management system, and improving our leachate plan.� The entire envelope of the waste will be capped off and the site closed off, but Boatman stressed that doesn’t mean the end for the Campbell River dump. Under the new waste mana g ement plan, there is some flexibility. The plan allows the solid waste board to assess the area adja-

is a big part of studying the orcas and their movements in the region.� In the 1980s, Paul Spong and Helena Symonds, founders of Orcalab, developed a remote hydrophone network which enabled orcas to be tracked throughout approximately 50 square kilometres of what has become known as the “core habitat� of the Northern Resident community.

hydrophones twenty-four hours a day, year round. To reserve a seat on this fundraiser, call 1-800-665-3066 or visit www.stubbsisland.com.

ProtecĆ&#x;ng Our Drinking Water Source A watershed is: a) A shed that holds water b) An area of land where water, dissolved and suspended materials Ňow towards the nearest stream, river, lake or ocean c) A concept that’s hard to describe without sweeping hand gestures Most of you will have correctly picked b), although some may think c) comes a close second! Our home may lie in the watershed of a smaller, urban stream, but our drinking water comes from “the big oneâ€? – the second largest watershed on Vancouver Island, the Campbell River Watershed. This watershed consists of Crown land, highways, BC Parks, tenured leases, BC Hydro property, industrial and residenĆ&#x;al areas. Uses include mining, logging, energy generaĆ&#x;on, residenĆ&#x;al properĆ&#x;es, recreaĆ&#x;onal pursuits and also the drinking water source for the City of Campbell River. Only one percent of the watershed lies within the City of Campbell River jurisdicĆ&#x;on. How does a city go about protecĆ&#x;ng a drinking water source that encompasses such a large area, with many diÄŤerent uses and government jurisdicĆ&#x;ons? Fortunately, there is well-deÄŽned framework in BC for water system operaĆ&#x;on, water quality monitoring and water system source protecĆ&#x;on. This framework evolved from many previous studies. Source water protecĆ&#x;on using a mulĆ&#x;-barrier approach was added to the framework aĹŒer at least two serious disease outbreaks in 2000 (Walkerton, Ont) and 2001 (North BaĆŠleford, SK). MulĆ&#x;-barrier protecĆ&#x;on includes monitoring, tesĆ&#x;ng, stakeholder collaboraĆ&#x;on, access and educaĆ&#x;on. In 2001, the City of Campbell River developed a Watershed Management Plan, a document that evaluated risks to drinking water of all acĆ&#x;viĆ&#x;es and natural processes in the watershed and made recommendaĆ&#x;ons to reduce the risks. Successes included: • Comprehensive water quality sampling and tesĆ&#x;ng • Emergency response plan • Technical Watershed CommiĆŠee • Restricted motorized boat access to John Hart Lake • ReducĆ&#x;on in swimming and camping around John Hart Lake • DesignaĆ&#x;on of the John Hart Lake as a “Community Watershedâ€? under the Forest PracĆ&#x;ces Code • Public outreach program and signs • Community events promoĆ&#x;ng stewardship: watershed clean-up (2006 – 2011) and Waterfest (2010 – 2011). AĹŒer eleven years, and changes in legislaĆ&#x;on, the City’s water department is updaĆ&#x;ng its drinking water source protecĆ&#x;on plan. Get informed at www.sustainablecampbellriver.ca (follow the link to Watershed Management Plan); provide input via 250-203-2316 or water.wise@campbellriver.ca.

plan has been a lengthy process. It’s been three years since a consultant was hired to help create the plan, which still requires approval from the province to be enacted. While the plan has been focused on landfill location, its goal is to reduce waste and increase diversion rates from the current 51 per cent to 70 per cent, by diverting waste from the landfill through recycling and composting. The plan suggests a new curbside food waste composting program, increased recycling services for multi-family complexes and possibly introducing waste-toenergy technologies, although there are no definite plans yet.

Murdered, Joshua Hogarth’s life to be remembered on Oct. 13
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2012
A second-year journalism student at Vancouver Island University, stabbed to death in Calgary, will be remembered in a celebration of his life at the Willow Point Hall Oct. 13. Joshua Hogarth, 18, a graduate of Timberline Secondary, lived in Campbell River from
2009 to 2011. He bled to death on his mother’s doorstep in Calgary Aug. 21. Police allege he was beaten and stabbed by his friend Byron Blanchard, 20, who has been charged with second-degree murder. “It is just so very tragic,� said Torie Hog-
arth, his aunt. “He was a bright young man who just wanted everybody to get along.� Emily Dyke, a paramedic who met Hogarth at school last year, said: “He was probably the nicest guy I met there. “All he could talk about were his plans
in life and what he wanted to do.� VIU jour nalism instructor Richard Dunstan taught Hogarth and described him as “a bright spot in the class, very cheerful and very eager.� The Hogarths moved from Calgary to Campbell River in 2009.

When the family returned to Calgary in 2011, Josh stayed behind to pursue a bachelor of arts program in creative writing and journalism at Vancouver Island University. Calgary police said Hogarth and Blanchard had been involved in a
A7
dispute. “They were friends. It is my understanding they had known each other since 2007,� Staff Sgt. Doug Andrus said. The Oct. 13 Celebration of Life, the day Joshua would have celebrated his 19th birthday, begins at 10 a.m.

Our View
Liberals have opportunity to close the gap The BC Liberals may be far behind the opposition NDP in the polls, but there are a few factors bubbling along — mostly under the surface — that may change their fortunes for the better by election day next May. The Liberals still face an uphill battle in getting re-elected. The NDP We say: is polling well, getting roughly twice the support that the Liberals are getConservatives’ ting in recent polls. However, the most loss could be recent poll, which was published last Liberals’ gain week, showed the Liberals gaining a small amount of support, with the NDP slipping slightly. This is simply one poll, and polling results are becoming less and less reliable, as the Alberta and Quebec
elections this year have illustrated. However, the Liberals will do even better if the BC Conservatives, who have taken a significant amount of support away from them, falter. The Conservatives are holding a meeting this Saturday in Langley, and one item on the agenda is a confidence vote on John Cummins’ leadership. Should he not receive the backing of almost all the membership, the Conservatives will be thrown into chaos. While such a scenario seems unlikely, the Conservatives have a history of internal revolts and leadership dissatisfaction. If there is a significant split at the meeting, the Liberals will only gain. A third factor is Premier Christy Clark herself. While Clark has taken plenty of heat, she showed on Sunday
at Rich Coleman’s annual barbecue that she has a good ability to campaign and communicate. This is something Coleman and others have said — Clark is a good campaigner, and is an effective match for NDP leader Adrian Dix. This will be a significant factor as people make their minds up. Another factor is that Dix and his party have been in the lead (in the polls) for a long period. The NDP is releasing almost no policy information, and this gap in information is causing more and more questions to be asked about the party’s actual agenda. Should this lack of information about what an NDP government would do continue into the winter, the Liberals may see their fortunes rise even more. Six months is a long time in politics, and next May’s election is even further away.
Letters
Transit: Doesn’t add up The following is an open letter to city hall filed for publication in the Mirror. We recently enjoyed reading some encouraging numbers on the success of Campbell River Transit over the past years. Apparently Campbell River residents are using Campbell River’s transit system like never before, and we are well ahead of usage and costs of others in our peer group, such as Vernon and Penticton. The figures provided imply that every resident of Campbell River uses Campbell River Transit with 17.92 rides per person. I know quite a few residents, including myself, have never used local buses (I prefer my bike). Now, whenever a Transit bus cruises by, I can’t help but notice one to four people on board. How are the usage numbers calculated? Let’s compare the numbers provided by Campbell River Transit. (Population figures from the 2011 census). Continued on A9 We welcome your opinions on stories and issues published in our pages as well as issues of broader concern encountered elsewhere. Please keep your letters brief. We reserve the right to edit for length and liability. E-mail them to editor@ campbellrivermirror.com
Send my mail to ‘Alistair’s house, Campbell River’
Alistair Taylor Out On A Limb
SPECIAL DELIVERY...Whenever we send a snail mail letter these days, we still are never completely confident it’s going to get there. It may be unfair, a remnant of days when volume and technology restricted the reliability of mail delivery. Letters went missing in those sorting machines, maybe flung out onto the floor by a glitch in the roller. Sometimes, they were diverted to Mississauga. Then there was geographic ignorance. When I lived up north, letters intended for Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, often went to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Because they’re kind of the same place, right? But despite that history, there are
times when letters get delivered against all odds and you just wonder how. I got one the other day from Denman Island. It was addressed to ‘Editor, Campbell River Mirror, Campbell River B.C. V9W 2B2.’ Who needs a street address? And forget about the postal code – our postal code is V9W 1X9. But it got here. Of course, everybody knows where the Campbell River Mirror is, right? So who needs an address? Any mail for me can be addressed to ‘Alistair’s house, Campbell River.’ HOLIDAYS REVISITED...You think Campbell River is off the beaten track sometimes but it is still a fairly wellknown place. I checked into a hotel
in Golden, B.C. and the manager informed me she was going to be in Campbell River in the fall for a wedding. A Banff Park ranger had worked at Strathcona Park Lodge. An American we chatted with in Glacier National Park had a cousin in Nanaimo, so knew about Campbell River. And as usual, whenever Campbell River was mentioned, some reference was made to the fishing. I’m always unsure of how to describe where I’m from whenever I’m in the U.S. One old guy asked me where I was from last year and I said ‘Canada.’ To which, he replied dryly, ‘Canada’s a big place.’ On a Park Ranger-guided nature walk, we all were asked to
introduce ourselves and where we’re from. About eight of the 11 or so of us were from Wisconsin or somewhere. The ranger looked at me and said, ‘Please tell me you’re from somewhere different.’ I didn’t disappoint. Sometimes when you get into a conversation, people will ask where you’re from and you brace yourself to explain because there’s some Americans who are familiar with Canada and there are others who don’t know there’s another country above them on the map. They think that map of the U.S. on the classroom wall showing a disembodied Lower 48 with Alaska and Hawaii floating off to the side like satellites is how the world actually is.

bell River could enjoy the revenue success enjoyed by Penticton and see revenues of $9.975 million instead? In turn, Penticton could look at reducing their operating expenses by following Campbell River’s
e x a m p l e. Wi t h growth like this, city hall really wouldn’t need to subsidize this surface in the future. With Councillor (Andy) Adams planning a service review, this might be a good area to look at as well.

Stakes go up in B.C. gas gamble
Tom Fletcher B.C. Views
Mike de Jong’s debut as B.C. finance minister was a grim one. The first financial update for this election year projects a $1.4 billion decline in natural resource revenues from Kevin Falcon’s one and only budget in February. Most of that is from declining natural gas revenues in the next three years. And it’s not just the price of gas
that’s lower than the finance ministry’s array of private sector experts had forecast. The volume of B.C. gas sold is down as well, as abundant new sources of shale gas come onstream in the U.S. with oil, currently the only market Canada has. De Jong’s response shows how serious this problem is for any B.C. government. He inher-

its Falcon’s political commitment to present a balanced budget next spring. How he will do that, and be believed in a heated post-HST election campaign, remains a mystery. De Jong announced a hiring freeze for government staff, and a management salary freeze across health care, universities and Crown corporations as well as government

Camp Homewood gets helping hand ent location on Mine Lake. In 1979 the main lodge opened enhancing year round programming. Since then other buildings have been added including the bunkhouse, a guest house, uphill and downhill wash houses, three uphill cabins, bus barn and indoor riding arena. Stevens says, “Changes have been continually taking place but the most important changes have been in people’s lives.”
BRIAN KIERAN CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
“Camp Homewood on Quadra Island has been contributing to our community since the 1940s and now it’s time to give back,” says camp supporter Kim Stevens. The camp lost $50,000 in revenue this spring because of the government dispute with teachers and “the crunch” has hit home this fall, says Camp General Director Irwin Harder. A group of Camp Homewood fans are gathering Saturday, Sept. 22 from 8:30 a.m. - noon at the Church on the Way on 7th Avenue across from Phoenix School to do their best to help out. The fundraising event will be both festival and garage sale. There will be several families participating in the garage sale which will include everything from an antique bed to sports equipment and household items. All the proceeds will go to help Camp Homewood meet its obligations.

Mark Donaldson, VP of the Campbell River Shrine Club and William Stephens, Treasurer pose with Stacey Marsh, Executive Director, Campbell River Hospital Foundation and Debbie Arkwright, Clinical Coordinator of the CRH Maternity Department with a wireless Fetal Monitor. With over 400 births annually in the Campbell River Hospital, this piece of equipment will be well used and is very much appreciated!
Above, Marg and Alf Bayne founded Camp Homewood in 1948. Below, Camp Homewood has been entertaining families for decades on Quadra Island. Stevens says, “Homewood has found itself in a financial shortfall this year, due in part to the unexpected and regrettable cancellations from the teachers’ job action this past spring.” School District 72 has always been a great user of the facility but was forced to cancel many bookings, Stevens says. Harder says the camp refuses to go into debt to finance operations and is currently having difficulty with its program of offering $1,000
schooling bursaries to its camp volunteers. Camp founders Alf and Margaret Bayne started the Pacific Coast Children’s Mission in 1944. A permanent base was established in 1948 when the Baynes moved onto a portion of the present Homewood property on
Quadra. Over the years the camp prog ram has expanded involving more campers and reaching out to more people every year. The Woodsman Camp was started in 1965 on the freshwater Village Bay Lakes. The site was later moved to its pres-

Kidz Talk radio launches A new radio station for students is coming to Campbell River. “Kidz Talk Radio, a program representing a new approach to literacy for all ages, is tentatively set to launch October 19 in Campbell River,” says Diana Camerin, one of a few local individuals working to put together this progressive and fun approach to literacy education. “Being literate refers to the ability to read for knowledge, write coherently, communicate effectively and think critically. What I love about Kidz Talk Radio is that it brings all of these elements into a classroom, after school or workshop experience that is educational, interactive and uses youth’s natural love of technology as the vehicle to deliver the message.” The program is delivered by trained facilitators and brings all the technology needed to complete the program. Local radio personalities have provided the expertise around such topics as clear vocal communication skills, creative writing, the need for news and sports stories and responsible and effective on-air announcing. “At the end of
the day kidz will have written and voiced an advertisement for a product they actually tasted or researched, given voice to local topics that are important to them and learned the vital elements of good communication,” Camerin says. Anyone interested in Kidz Talk Radio or would like more information can contact Camerin at kidztalkradio@gmail. com or 250-205-1078

You are invited to tour the province’s Mobile Medical Unit and learn how this high-tech hospital-on-wheels will help medical staff cope in an emergency or large-scale disaster.
• The Mobile Medical Unit (MMU) is housed in a 16metre tractor-trailer that expands to a 90-squaremetre (1000 square feet) flexible facility with up to eight-10 patient treatment bays, depending on level of care required. • The MMU can accommodate several patients with minor illnesses/injuries and can also be set up to provide a higher level of care such as critical care and emergency surgery. • Recently, the MMU has also been deployed to support planned hospital renovations and outpatient clinics. • A support trailer is stocked with 72 hours worth of medical supplies, consumables, and other equipment. • The MMU can be connected to a hospital’s shore power, city water and waste systems, but also has its own power, oxygen, water, and waste systems for self-sufficiency when required. • We look forward to seeing you there!

October 31, 1930 – September 12, 2012 “Geneâ€? passed away peacefully in the Campbell River Hospital with the love of his family surrounding him. Gene has always possessed the ability to build anything and everything. Being a welder as a young man, he began by building his own motorcycle (attached with a great story of course), and moved on to building all of his own homes with great care and precision. This meant climbing mountains to chip rock for the walls, and collecting wood blocks from the bush to cut shakes for the roof. Gene didn’t stop at houses, as he was a ďŹ ne boat builder as well, which led him into a career as a commercial ďŹ sherman. He continued on from there into construction, before retiring in Black Creek to pursue his passion of “Extreme Gardeningâ€?. For all who has had the pleasure of experiencing his owers, vegetables and fruit, they will remember him for his love of growing. Eugene is survived by his son, Robin, daughter, Joanne Menagh (David), predeceased by daughter, Debra Jean, predeceased by son, Terrance Dale, predeceased by his dog and best friend, Kubie. Grandchildren, Mike, Tyler, Stevi, Arin, Rheanna, Melanie, Sara and 6 great grand children whom he loved with all his heart. The family would like to extend their gratitude to Dr. Robert Ramsey and nurse Carman for their compassion they gave to Gene on his ďŹ nal days.

erty assessment value of the defunct Catalyst mill site. The BC Assessment Authority announced early last month that Catalyst no longer meets the requirements of a major industrial property, and
has been reclassified as business/ other, which means a significant reduction in Catalyst’s property taxes. That decision results in a loss of $1.8 million in tax revenue for

The city is forecasting a $3.6 million budget shortfall for 2012, according to preliminary fig-
2012. Included in the deficit is a $1.1 million tax shortfall carried over from 2011, plus a $1.3 million increase in costs related to contract commitments and inflationary increases, said Laura Ciarniello, the city’s general manager of corporate services. If the city were to maintain the current level of services it provides to citizens, the tax rate would have to increase by 24 per cent in order to make up the $3.6 million.
The loss of $1.8 million from Catalyst alone, equates to a 12 per cent residential tax increase. To put that into perspective, Ciarniello said a one per cent residential tax increase would bring in $150,000 in revenue for the city. That one per cent increase would mean roughly $12 more per year in property taxes for the average homeowner. The city’s operating budget is approximately $37 million which Continued on A3

Homalco Nation will not join bear hunt ban A unilateral First Nations declaration that a bear hunting ban will be “enforced� in the Great Bear Rainforest should have little or no impact in the Bute Inlet region of the central coast adjacent to Campbell River. Last week Kitasoo/ Xaixais Chief Doug Neasloss, a bear-watching guide, said, “Despite years of effort by the Coastal First Nations to find a resolution to this issue with the province this senseless
and brutal trophy hunt continues. We will now assume the authority to monitor and enforce a closure of this senseless trophy hunt.� The area included in this ban extends from Haida Gwaii down the central coast. The most southern limits of the Great Bear Rainforest touch on Bute Inlet, traditional territory of the Campbell River-based Homalco Nation. But, Homalco band manager Alison Trenholm has told the Mirror, “We are not part of the bear hunting ban.� The Homalco operate a
very successful “Bears of Bute� bear watching excursion program. The announcement that First Nations individuals were prepared to take the law into their own hands has raised alarms that there could be potentially dangerous confrontations this hunting season. “Our concern is that people without jurisdiction are unilaterally deciding something like this,� said Scott Ellis, executive director of the Guide Outfitters Association of B.C. Forests and Lands
Minister Steve Thomson said, “I’m disappointed in the declaration that they’ve taken.� He added that it is not clear how First Nations intend to enforce the ban, and “it’s too soon to say exactly how we’re going to respond without more specifics on the actions that they might take.� Karl Granlund, owner of Granlund Firearms here in Campbell River, said, “I deal strictly with hunters and it is a concern to me what will happen if we end up with a bear hunt-
ing ban. What’s next? Everything? That’s what the natives want ... everything.� While Granlund anticipates that the First Nations ban will end up as “a protracted legal battle in the courts,� he is not concerned about a confrontation on the ground. “The reality is that everyone involved in hunting and guiding adheres to very high standards of integrity and gun safety and they would not engage in any confrontation.� There was also news following the ban that
environmental groups are accelerating their efforts to purchase hunting rights to protect bears and defuse conflicts. The Raincoast Conservation Foundation now controls hunting in 28,000 square kilometres of the central coast and its latest acquisition of 3,500 square kilometres includes key areas around Princess Royal Island where there is the highest concentration of Kermode or spirit bears. The certificate purchase, which gives hunting rights in perp
petuity, cost about $320,000. A similar purchase in 2005 of 25,000 square kilometres cost about $1.3 million. B.C.’s unique Kermode – a black bear that is as white as a polar bear because of a recessive gene – is found only in the Great Bear Rainforest. Although Kermode bears are protected and cannot legally be shot, it is impossible for hunters to know if a black-coloured black bear has the recessive gene that could produce white offspring.

ing and we really surprised the rest of the Island. Our kids ran hard, defended relentlessly, ran creative plays, always caught kickoffs. It was a very promising start. At one Jamboree, we went 3-0 and it wasn’t until I checked my notes at the end of the day did I realize that every player scored at least one try,” says Erin Young, coach and coordinator. The next age level up involves separating the genders for competition, and contact (tackling, scrums, rucks, line outs) is intro-
duced. Young points out that although having enough players to form an entire sevenor 15-a side team would be great, it’s not necessary as other clubs will welcome new players on their squads come game time.

Mikey Markland drives to the net during Friday’s game against the Nanaimo Buccaneers.
Storm split weekend games against Kings, Buccaneers A seven-goal outburst in the second period blew Friday’s Campbell River Storm game against the Nanaimo Buccaneers wide open. Going into the second frame at Rod Brind’Amour Arena, the score was tied 0-0 but Nanaimo scored four times and the Stor m replied with three in the second period. The Stor m goat two from Tyson
Rennie and one from Alex Benjestorf in the second. Alex Grupe tied it up quickly in the third for the Storm at 43 seconds before giving up the lead at 10:24 on the power play. Pulling the goaltender allowed the Storm to press in the dying moments but the Buccaneers held fast, winning the game 5-4. The Storm put that game behind them,
though, coming out the next night to take on the winless Comox Valley Glacier Kings in Courtenay. After the first period ended tied 1-1 on goals by the Storm’s Curtis Bagnall and the Kings’ Jordan Kamprath, the Glacier Kings took the lead at 6:01 in the second. The Stor m came back with a goal from Mikey Markland on the power play at 14:04 on assists from
Ryan White and Alex Grupe and then James Severs scored a shorthanded tally at 16:23 on an assist from Jesse Spooner. The Kings tied it up again at 16:14 in the third but Alex Benjestorf scored the winner at 17:05 on assists from Severs and Spooner.

Aquaculture Week on Vancouver Island BCSALMONFACTS Salmon are Incredibly Efficient Eaters Salmon farmers in BC can currently achieve a ratio of about 1.2 kgs of feed to 1 kg of salmon: which makes us very close to being a net producer of protein. This is great when we talk about the importance of feeding the world: for example, chickens convert feed at a 2:1 ration, while pigs are closer to 6:1. Salmon feed is designed specifically to conserve wild fish stocks and ensure healthy fish. With a limited amount of fish meal and fish oil available in the world, feed companies have focused on using it as efficiently as possible: and made great strides in that work.

Why an Aquaculture Awareness Week? Each year, salmon farmers from Campbell River join the egg, apple, chicken, beef and grain farmers (among many more) at the PNE Kids Farm to talk about raising fish. It’s always a busy time as kids gobble up the activity in the excitement of the fair – but there’s one question that is common among the young people and their parents: How DO you raise fish on a farm? We would say it’s quite simple, but it’s not. In BC, our salmon are raised right from the egg, collected from broodstock raised by our farmers. Fertilized eggs are incubated in hatcheries and raised there for the first year of their lives. These hatcheries are on land and use recirculating technology to manage the amount of water they use. This is a critical stage in the fish’s growth. Once the fish are big enough, they will be transferred to their ocean farms, first by truck from the hatchery and then by boat. Each farm has between eight

and 12 enclosures, each, holding around 50,000 fish. It seems like a big number, but the salmon only take up about two per cent of the farm space. Because our farms are in remote areas, the staff will need to take water taxis in for their shifts caring for the fish. They will stay on site for multiple days, in a
MEET OUR FARMERS For Jacob Koomen Bike to Work Week is much more than a week’s challenge; it’s training for the hundreds of kilometres he will ride this year to raise money for cancer research. “I love cycling,” says Koomen who works as maintenance manager at Marine Harvest Canada’s Sayward North hatchery, simply. He loves it so much that he’s happy to make the 70-km-each-way (2.5 hours a piece) commitment each year for Bike to Work Week. Each month, we highlight someone working in the salmon farming industry who is going above and beyond in their after-work hours. To read the full post, visit www.bcsfabeyondexpectations.wordpress.com

floating residence attached to the farm. At the farm, the salmon will be raised for up to two years, until they’re between five and six kilograms, when they are harvested. Once harvested, they’re taken by boat to a processing plant, and then shipped to your local store. Along the way, there are many details that have to be attended to: regular fish health monitoring, sampling and testing, ongoing environmental testing (water quality and ocean bottom conditions), site safety and biosecurity, maintenance of nets and structures are among the many procedures farmers must undertake to ensure success. They are busy days on the farms: lovely in the summer sun and harrowing in the winter storms. While the process is complex, the real answer to the question of how we raise fish on a farm is actually quite simple: passionately and carefully.
