Community groups relieved by province’s backtrack KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A backlash from local non-profits over having their tax exemptions revoked has the provincial government backpedaling. Six charitable groups received a letter from the city Sept. 21 informing them that their property tax exemption was being revoked because of a new interpretation of the provincial Community Charter. The city’s translation was that non-profit groups could no longer receive a permissive tax exemption unless they own or have a capital lease on their property. That did not sit well with Campbell River and Family Services Society executive director Camille Lagueux, who was preparing to celebrate the society’s Family Services Day today. She described the move as a “devastating blow” to an organization that struggles to maintain the same level of service for more than 2,500 people each year. “The city needs to become a full partner in providing these essential services to its citizens and we are asking that they honour their agreement with the society,” Continued on A3

Tax: Province backtracks on groups’ exemption KRISTEN DOUGLAS/THE MIRROR

Snip, snip, Baikie Island is open Above from left, Allister McLean of BC Hydro, Garth Sheane from the Nature Conservancy, Coun. Larry Samson, and Jim Van Tine, Baikie Island project lead, cut the ribbon to officially open Baikie Island. Below, forest technician Robin Williams speaks to guests at Sunday’s Baikie Island grand opening about her collection of animal skulls and plants native to Baikie Island. Baikie Island, which was purchased by the Nature Conservancy of Canada in 2000, has been restored to its natural state after decades of industrial use. Native plants, two backwater marshes and a waterside forest zone have been recreated on the island.

Continued from A1 Lagueux said last week. It seems that message was heard. “Based on new information from the province, the city’s Community Partnership Committee will recommend that the bylaw on permissive tax exemption be amended to reinstate previously revoked properties leased by charitable/non-profit groups,” said a news release issued by the city last Friday morning. “Following (the Sept. 18) council meeting, the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development received calls questioning their interpretation of permissive tax exemption eligibility.” Barry Watchorn, the chair of the city’s Community Partnership Committee, which recommended council revoke tax breaks to the local charities, apologized for the mix up. “The committee’s previous recommendation was based on our best understanding of the provincial legislation at the time, and we are very sorry for the difficulty community groups experienced as a result of that recommendation.” Now the ministry says it has broadened its interpretation of the Community Charter. After receiving legal advice, the city confirmed there is no basis in the legislation that the lease must be a capital lease, therefore operating leases held by non-profits qualify for the tax break. Natalie Aalderink, the city’s finance manager, said the city’s legal counsel believes the city was given “incorrect advice by the ministry” which it is now trying to correct.

“In light of this new information the committee met Sept. 28 to consider the ministry’s most recent response and the opinion from our legal counsel, and they recommend that we amend the bylaw to reinstate previously revoked properties and to add (three) new ones,” said Barry Watchorn, chair of the Community Partnership Committee. The groups that will have their tax exemption reinstated are: Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore, Total Change Ministries’ 88.7 Spirit FM Christian Music radio, Campbell River Family Services, Canadian Red Cross, Campbell River Seniors Society, and River City Players. The three new tax breaks will be given to the Willow Point Supportive Living Society, Campbell River Dragon Boat Society, and the Strathcona Regional District. That was welcome news for Lagueux, who was informed of the change by the city last Friday morning. “Very relieved to hear that,” she said. “This past week has been a rollercoaster ride for us. Now we can move ahead with Family Services Day on October 3 and focus on providing needed services to the community.” The city’s Community Partnership Committee was expected to have a report before council at its meeting Oct. 2, after the Mirror went to press, recommending council rescind third reading of the bylaw that revoked the tax exemptions. Based on 2012 tax rates, the city will provide 70 organizations tax breaks worth $637,737 in 2013. The permissive tax exemption bylaw must be adopted by Oct. 31.

to Henry Road (including properties fronting Henry Road). The proposal would allow 2,400 of the total 4,300 Area D population to hook up to the city’s sewer service and get off septic tanks, some of which are failing and creating health and environmental concerns. But the proposal can only proceed if residents give their support through a referendum. “A boundary adjustment would only go ahead if both city and Area D residents in the proposed area support the idea,” Coun. Andy Adams said. “Development in the proposed adjustment area is very similar to residential neighbourhoods inside city boundaries, and the lack of community sewer in this area poses the most risk to public health and the environment.” Leigh said the city is acting too quickly. “Based on information provided by the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, Campbell River council seems to have skipped crucial steps in the process required in any proposed boundary extension,” Leigh said. “Any annexation application will require a comprehensive and independent consultation process in Electoral Area D that would take considerContinued on A5

Sewer: Proposal a surprise Continued from A4 able time and effort to complete.” Leigh said the city’s proposal was unexpected. “I actually had no idea that this annexation question would come up,” Leigh said. “Although this proposal by Campbell River has caught me by surprise, I was able to obtain the necessary answers (from Community, Sport and Cultural Minister Bill Bennett) for the people of Area D and they can rest assured that nothing is going to be forced upon them and it may take a few years before the province could complete the required process.” The city and the Strathcona Regional District have been working for several years to reach an agreement on sewer services for Area D. In 2006, Area D residents voted in a referendum to support the regional district borrowing up to $9,350 for the collection and disposal of sewage. Leigh said the city’s most recent proposal, in Oct. 2011, was more than double

what was approved in the referendum and the city pulled out of negotiations after the regional district turned it down. Meanwhile, Brian Reardon, chief administrative officer for the regional district, was not impressed with how the city has handled the most recent situation. “It is unfortunate that Campbell River has taken the approach that they have in that a full process of consultation has not occurred,” he said. But the city says it will consult with affected residents. “Council agreed that involving the public in the discussion at this time was the right thing to do,” Coun. Mary Stor ry said. “Whether this idea proceeds or not is really up to the broader community as we recognize and respect the fact that the residents will need to decide whether a boundary adjustment makes sense for them.” The city says it plans to provide information for Campbell River and Area D residents.

Campbell River resident Nick Facey, a 25-year-old PhD student, has been acclaimed the provincial Liberal candidate for North Island. He will face NDP incumbent Claire Trevena in an uphill battle in May 2013. Facey knows the hill he must climb is steep. “I don’t think we campaigned properly last time. I won’t limit my campaign to Campbell River by any means. We have not campaigned on the north island properly nor have we campaigned on Quadra and Cortes effectively. We lost Port Alice terribly (in 2009). We can’t do that again. I have to get out there and be part of the conversation.” Facey has taken a leave from his doctoral studies in business at Simon Fraser University to challenge Trevena. His acclamation came Tuesday evening at his party’s nomination meeting at the Maritime Heritage Centre. Education Minister Don McCrea (Comox Valley) was there to cheer him on. Today, Facey is setting up his campaign office in Georgia Quay, #102-901 Island Highway.

“I want to ensure that young people come to the North Island to seek a living, and parents move here because it’s an ideal place to raise their kids,” Facey said. “The key to that is ensuring that there are jobs in our region, and Premier Christy Clark has made jobs her number one focus. That’s why I’m standing with the premier to help keep British Columbia’s economy moving forward.” The last Liberal to hold North Island was Rod Visser who lost the seat in 2005 even though he outspent Trevena two to one. Trevena held the riding in 2009 polling about 3,000 votes more than her Liberal challenger Marion Wright. Even though the overlapping federal riding of Vancouver Island North is held by the Conservatives, the party has no provincial profile here. BC Conservative leader John Cummins was attempting to change that earlier this week with a twoday North Island tour that included Campbell River and Gold River. On his arm was Campbell River’s Bob Bray, to date the only candidate for the party’s North Island nomination.

Two-car crash closes Dogwood Dogwood Street was closed for an hour and a half Monday as rescue crews freed a 66-year-old Campbell River woman from her car after a collision sent a second vehicle careening through the school yard fence at Ecole Phoenix. Fortunately, there were no children nearby when the crash occurred. At approximately 12:15 p.m. RCMP, fire rescue and ambulance crews responded to the collision at Dogwood and 7th Avenue. A northbound Buick operated by a 58-yearold Campbell River man collided with the woman’s Pontiac which was making a left hand turn from 7th onto Dogwood. RCMP Staff Sergeant Troy Beauregard said the force of the crash sent the Pontiac spinning through the intersection. It came to rest against a stopped taxi. The driver of the Buick lost control and went through a fence before coming to a stop in the school sports field. “The female driver of the Pontiac was trapped in the vehicle and had to be extricated by Fire Rescue before being transported by BC Ambulance to Campbell River Hospital. The drivers of the Buick and the taxi were not injured,” Beauregard said. Neither drugs nor alcohol are suspected in the crash. Speed and failing to stop for a traffic control device are being investigated. The RCMP investigation is continuing, Beauregard said.

Fortunately, many people who value both drinking water and recreaƟon promote responsible use. “We hope all can work together so access is not lost,” said a parƟcipant from this group. The people of Campbell River value the forests and lakes in the watershed for recreaƟon and the clean drinking water they provide. Keeping recreaƟon clean in the watershed will help us delay the need to invest in expensive water treatment methods like ĮltraƟon. How does one compare the value of recreaƟon and access against the risk to drinking water? Of the Įve lakes in the watershed, water in John Hart Lake is closest to the drinking water intake. Disease causing microorganisms introduced into this lake can easily slip into the drinking water supply. The water in John Hart Lake is at the highest risk and requires the most protecƟon.

Our View

Catalyst fails the test of corporate citizenship A few weeks ago the Campbell River Chamber of Commerce held its Awards of Distinction, an opportunity for the community to celebrate and appreciate the high standards of corporate citizenship that define our business community. It is a pity someone from Catalyst We say: Alarm Paper wasn’t in the audience to learn bells are ringing by example. Since August when Catalyst announced the sale of the Elk fover the sale of Falls mill site the company has envelElk Falls Mill oped itself in a shroud of troubling silence. Campbell River is not even on the radar when it comes to communicating details about the faltering progress of the sale. It took prodding by the Mirror to discover that the

first sale deadline, Sept. 5, had been missed. When the second deadline Sept. 19 approached, came and went Catalyst’s vice-president of corporate “responsibility” refused to answer repeated calls from the Mirror. This studied indifference to its duty of accountability is shoddy. And, considering the economic and social pain Catalyst has caused this community since it bailed in 2010, its current behavior simply adds insult to injury. The $8.6 million sale of the Elk Falls site to Edmonton developer Harold Jahn, owner of Pacifica Deep Sea Terminals Inc., was announced with great fanfare Aug. 16. 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.” This left the impression that Catalyst had done its due diligence when Jahn offered to purchase. But, the company’s bunker mentality for the past month leads us to question just how much corporate elbow grease went into the vetting of Jahn. It only took two hours of phone calling to Alberta by the Mirror to learn that Jahn has been party to two similar development proposals in the Athabasca region that never got off the drawing board. Huge questions persist about environmental remediation of the contaminated site. Jahn has said he will assume full liability, but that assurance has a hollow ring after a month of silence. What should be ringing are our alarm bells.

Letters

Public controls land base I am writing in response to your Sept. 25 article, North Island MLA outlines NDP’s forestry plan. On Northern Vancouver Island, the public, not forest companies control the Crown land base. Through the 2003 Forestry Revitalization Plan, we redistributed tenure from the largest licensees in order to create more opportunities for smaller operators and First Nations. As a result, 17 North Island First Nations have had the opportunity to participate in the forest sector. As well a strategic engagement agreement and reconciliation protocol with member bands of the Nanwakolas Tribal Council are bringing certainty to forestry operations in the area. Clarity also needs to be provided around definition of log exports, since in some cases log exports from Tahsis are just to mills in Port Alberni or Nanaimo. Because of concerns raised around log exports, I have asked for a review of log export policy and expect to be able to announce the results later this fall. I know the last few years have been challenging Continued on A9 We welcome your opinions on stories and issues published in our pages as well as issues of broader concern encountered elsewhere.

The otherwordly landscape of Baikie Island

Alistair Taylor Out On A Limb @AlstrT editor@campbellrivermirror.com

The landscaping in the interior of Baikie Island is surreal. Straight logs stick out of the ground like bare pillars. An upside-down root mass looks like witches hair waving in the wind. Frail, spindly alder shoots are protected from the ravages of rapacious deer by fishing nets and the ground is pitted with deep holes. It looks a bit odd – like a newly-landscaped garden that has yet to fill in as the fresh plantings establish themselves. Which, of course, is what it is. The last time I had crossed the little bridge at the end of Coulter Road, it was with “shovels and rakes and implements of destruction” to quote Arlo Guthrie. We were going to hack

and pull at the evil Scotch broom that had established itself on the island like it has on many places on Vancouver Island. By the way, I wish the common name for Cytisus scoparius was not Scotch broom. Being “Scotch,” I don’t like being associated with this noxious plant. Its prolific spores choke allergy sufferers and allow the plant to take over acres of native landscape which has no indigenous predator to beat it back. The central clearing in Baikie Island that used to house a logging operation, was quickly taken over by broom and the equally dominating alien blackberry. Once Baikie Island was purchased by the Nature Conservancy of Canada and given to

the City of Campbell River (i.e., you and me), all out war was declared on the vile broom and other invasive species. Jim van Tine and volunteers from numerous community groups whacked and hacked and pulled at the bushes to remove them. Others planted trees and shrubs. I was there one recent spring hacking away. But even though we put in a good day’s work, the area was still covered in broom and I thought, ‘My goodness, they’re going to have scrape this clean if they really want to get rid of this stuff.’ Well, guess what, that’s what they did. Scraped it clear and replanted with native species. They did that last year and already the native plants

have established themselves. The logs and root masses sticking out of the ground I mentioned before are there to replicate wildlife trees which are trees that have died naturally but which are quickly colonized by bugs. That, of course, attracts woodpeckers and flickers which bore into the trunks. The holes they leave provide nesting habitat for birds and a natural habitat returns. The Baikie Island Restoration project held its official open house on Sunday and it was an opportunity to applaud the broad-based community effort to restore the whole Baikie Island area. Just consider the feathers of birds recolonizing the area as feathers in Campbell River’s cap.

They may be portraits of veterans in uniform during their time of service or casual photos of comrades at arms, families, etc. This is an opportunity to honour the men and women who made a contribution to or survived the war effort in whatever capacity you’d like to remember. This includes civilians and people on the home front. E-mail your digital photos and a couple of explanatory paragraphs to editor@campbellrivermirror.com. Alternatively, you can bring your photos in to be scanned to the Mirror office at 104 - 250 Dogwood Street. Please include a contact phone number.

I was horrified by letter demeaning Claire Trevena Re: “Why is this allowed?” - Sept. 12 edition of Campbell River Mirror I’d like to submit this response to the abovementioned article. In response to “Why is this allowed?” by Judy Campbell, I wish first of all to let Campbell River readers know that there are a few Judy Campbells in town. I was horrified to see my name attached to a letter demeaning Claire Trevana, our hard-working MLA. There’s a good explanation of the policy

of our gover nment by Dan MacLennan in the September 7th edition of the Courier Islander. It seems that it’s common practice for spouses to attend certain conferences on trips arranged by the Speaker’s Office. Ms. Trevana isn’t a member of the party in power in Victoria and I’ve certainly never noticed any “sense of entitlement” in the manner in which she conducts herself as our MLA. She’s usually busy being responsive to the needs and con-

cerns of her constituents. I consider “the other Judy Campbell” to be playing party politics here and would assume she’s not a member of the NDP Party. By the way Ms. Campbell, Claire Trevana has explained this issue thoroughly a number of times. Maybe it’s time for you to write to the Speaker’s Office with your complaint and outrage. Somehow I don’t see that happening.

because of the global economic depression. Our focus on Asian markets has been most helpful, because despite Darrell Wong’s optimism, most econo-

mists aren’t predicting U.S. housing starts to reach 2006 levels until at least 2016. The forest policies this government has put in place have helped B.C.’s forest sector weather the storm

The award was presented to Davis at the annual Tourism Vancouver Island ceremonies to showcase the best of Vancouver Island tourism representatives and businesses. The awards ceremony was held at the Best Western Premier Prestige Oceanfront Resort in Sooke. Dave Petryk, President and CEO of Tourism Vancouver Island

said: “The MVP Award recognizes an individual or a tourism business that has demonstrated a commitment to the growth of tourism through outstanding contributions to Tourism Vancouver Island. Davis has worked for Tourism Campbell River for 12 years and has sat on the association’s marketing board for as long as she can remember. She said she was “excited and humbled” to be selected for the award. “Locally we have wonderful tourism operators and we are doing an excellent job of rais-

Vancouver Island’s initiatives and contributes an amazing amount of energy and ideas to Tourism Vancouver Island meetings and programs. She is committed to the industry and seeing it grow not only in Campbell River, but throughout Vancouver Island,” Petryk said. Tourism Vancouver Island is one of six regional destination management organizations in British Columbia that represent Tourism British Columbia through the delivery of co-operative marketing and community development programs.

Thursday dedicated to protests against smart meters KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A group of local residents opposed to BC Hydro’s controversial smart meters are taking their message to the streets this week. This Thursday has been declared International Day of Action to Stop Smart Meters in order to demand an immediate ban on further smart meter installation across B.C.

In Campbell River, smart meter critics plan to congregate in front of the BC Hydro building on Evergreen Road in the early morning, and then move on to city hall. Tim Benoit, spokesperson for the Campbell River branch of the Stop Smart Meters Coalition said the demonstration is “to protest the continuing installations and to demand our rights.” Smart meters have

already been installed outside the majority of Campbell River homes, but the coalition hopes to stop BC Hydro from replacing the old meters with smart meters. The group insists smart meters, which are wireless and run on Wi-fi, pose security and health risks. There has been ongoing research into potential health and environmental effects related to radio frequency sig-

4x6

nals emitted from the smart meters. The World Health Organization has classified those radio frequency electromagnetic fields as a Class 2B – a possible human carcinogen, which has been known to cause cancer. Karle and Laurie Granlund, who own Granlund Firearms in Campbell River, worry the smart meters could lead to security breaches.

“Given that BC Hydro will allow your information to be accessed online, the meters pose a significant security risk as hackers could easily get access to this information and determine when a house was vacant, thus when it would be easy to break

in and steal,” said the Granlunds in a letter to city council. BC Hydro has spent much of the past couple of years defending the devices, saying they pose less of a health threat than cellphones or Wi-fi in public places.

WIN $500

The smart meters have also been touted by BC Hydro for getting the lights back on quickly in the event of a power outage because the devices will send a signal to BC Hydro indicating when and where an outage has occurred.

Area D will be feeling flush Home Hardware finds fall inspiration in the first week of November The Strathcona Regional District will be conducting hydrant servicing and watermain flushing throughout the Electoral Area D and Craig Road water systems beginning the first week of October 2012 and continuing until the first week of November 2012. Watermain flushing will take place mainly between the hours of 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday. During these times, customers may experience the following: ■ Intermittent drops

in water pressure ■ Some discolouration of water Water remains safe to use and drink during watermain flushing. To avoid laundry staining or sediment accumulation in household piping, water use should be minimized if discoloured water is noticed. If water is found to be discoloured, run an outside tap after 4 p.m. until the water runs clear. Watermain flushing is an important preventative maintenance

Free energy efficiency assessments for local businesses Interested in reducing your business electricity bill? Local businesses that spend less than $50,000 a year on electricity are eligible for free energy efficiency assessments under the Provincial LiveSmart BC Program. The free assessments are valued at $150 and include an easy to follow report provided by a professional energy advisor, as well as assistance

activity that ensures the integrity of the water system including the fire hydrants and valves. Flushing is also undertaken to remove sediment from the system and to maintain water clarity and quality. Additional information, including frequently asked questions, is available on the Regional District website (www. strathconard.ca). The Strathcona Regional District apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

with accessing incentives through LiveSmart BC, BC Hydro and Fortis BC. The City of Campbell River encourages eligible businesses to book a time to work directly with the energy advisor to identify potential energy and money-saving opportunities, ranging from lighting, hot water, heating, ventilation and to a lesser extent building envelope and water savings. The program including available energy upgrade incentives through LiveSmart BC runs until March 31, 2013.

Gary Thulin and Allison Kilby, dealer-owner along with Leanne Monks of Pioneer Hardware Ltd., joined more than 10,000 Home Hardware Dealers, suppliers and staff from across Canada at Home’s annual Fall Market last month. The Market was held at the company’s expansive Distribution Centre in St. Jacobs, Ontario. Featuring over 100,000 quality brand name and private label products, the Fall Market is a vital part of the spring and summer buying season for Pioneer Hardware and enables them to leverage the collective buying power of over 1,080 stores to purchase product at competitive prices. The Mar-

ket also offers seminars, presentations and hands-on training – covering everything from housewares to power tools – to further enhance the expert advice dealers already provide to their customers. The Fall Market also provided dealers with the unique opportunity to preview BeautiTone Paint’s Simon Chang Oh Canada! Trend Colour Collection, launched at an exclusive fashion show event. The collection, a collaboration between Beauti-Tone, Home Hardware’s paint division, and Chang, a leading Canadian fashion designer, celebrates the country’s distinctive regional charms and proud heritage. “We continue to be inspired

by the new ideas and products shared at the Fall Market,” said Gary Thulin, Dealer-Owner of Pioneer Hardware. “We’ve seen some exciting new products that will be available in the coming months and we’re looking forward to making them available to our customers in Campbell River.” Home’s Kitchen Expert, Anna Olson, and Gardening Expert, Mark Cullen, were also on hand throughout the Market, with Olson hosting a holiday entertaining seminar and Cullen offering insight into lawn and garden trends.

According to Statistics Canada, 5.7 million Canadians reported making a charitable donation in 2010 for a total of just under $8.3 billion.1 The simplest giving strategy is a cash donation but that may not be the best strategy for you. One that can not only help the charitable organization, but also help the donor to save on taxes, is the gifting strategy of donating publicly-traded securities.

will create a tax liability of $16,100 (based on the $70,000 increase in the securities’ value times the 50% capital gains inclusion rate times your 46% marginal tax rate). However, if you make what is known as an ‘in-kind’ gift by donating the securities directly to the charity, your tax liability for the capital gain would be zero. Your charitable donation receipt would be for the fair market value of the securities on the date that the ownership of the securities was transferred to the charity. The special capital gains inclusion rate applies to ‘in-kind’ gifts to registered charitable organizations as well as public and private foundations. The charity/ foundation must have a broker account into which the shares or units can be transferred. Charities typically have special forms to smooth the transfer

the required form. Check out your charity’s website for information about ‘inkind’ transfers, or call them directly.

Donating publicly-traded securities (such as shares or mutual fund units) directly to a charity is more tax-ef¿cient than selling the securities and donating the cash proceeds. If you sell shares or mutual fund units to make a cash donation you’ll have to include 50% of the realized capital gains as taxable income when you dispose of the shares or units. However, if you donate the shares or units directly to the charity there is no capital gains and accordingly no income tax payable. Here’s an example: You have $100,000 of securities that originally cost you $30,000 (the “cost base” of that asset). You sell the securities and donate the $100,000 to your charity.

You are required to report all gifts of publiclytraded securities by including CRA form T1170, Capital Gains and Gifts of Certain Property with your tax return. Your best approach to increasing your lifetime donations and potential tax bene¿ts begins with talking to your professional advisor and developing a plan the ¿ts your overall ¿nancial strategy. 1 Statistics Canada, The Daily, Monday, December 5, 2011

| CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR | WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2012

Youth Action Committee: time for teens to have their say Who cares? You do? We want to hear from you! The City of Campbell Riverâ€™s Youth Action Committee is looking for openminded, innovative and motivated youth (14-18 years old) who want their say on community issues. The Youth Action Committee provides a youth perspective for staff and City Council on community issues like art, recreation, safety, transportation, culture, parks and the environment. The committee also shapes Campbell Riverâ€™s Youth Engagement Strategy to involve youth in City projects and planning.

Last year, the Youth Action Committee began researching options for a Campbell River Youth Centre, participated in the annual Christmas Food Bank drive, fundraised and helped organize the Earth Week Film Festival, and provided advice on youth recreation, the Tidemark Theatre, Spirit Square, the heritage value of Big Rock and watershed planning. The committee also developed a Youth Charter, a vision for the future for Campbell River that was endorsed by City Council, School District 72 and the RCMP in June 2012.

â€œThe Youth Action Committee is a place where your opinion not only matters, it can ignite ideas for change in the city that we live in,â€? says Mariah Carpenter, Youth Action Committee Chair for 2012. â€œAs youth, often times we feel as though we have no control over how things are done and as though our voices donâ€™t hold much power. By joining a committee like YAC that is specifically for youth, you not only have the opportunity to let your voice be heard, but you have a group of your peers coming together, also bringing their ideas which can lead to

changes that we, as youth, want to see. Weâ€™re a real committee of real teenagers, creating real plans and making a difference for the present and future youth of Campbell River,â€? Mariah continues. â€œYouth should consider joining YAC to not only to help give more of a youth perspective within the city but for the chance

to meet and converse with other involved and locally-aware teens. YAC provides the opportunities to express opinions and learn more about our local government system,â€? adds Paige Derouin, YAC Member from 2012. Another bonus: YAC participants develop valuable leadership and communications skills, and gain great

work experience. The committee launches again this fall with a workshop on Friday, Oct. 20 and will then meet twice per month on Tuesdays from 3:30-5 p.m. to discuss topics important to youth in Campbell River. Application forms for the Youth Action Committee are available at Timberline and Carihi school offices,

HOROSCOPES

CROSSWORD 7x14

CROSSWORD

The week of Sept. 30 â€“ Oct. 6, 2012

ARIES

LIBRA

No matter what type of negotiation youâ€™re involved in, take care to rely on exact information. Relying on your impressions will cause you more confusion than anything else.

You might witness an unfair remark that causes a bit of a stir around you. You will have an important role to play in restoring harmony.

You may get involved in some kind of sports activity. Your competitive spirit will take over and coming in second will be out of the question. You will enjoy all the glory you worked for.

GEMINI If youâ€™re feeling overtired, it means, paradoxically, that you need to get more exercise. Adopting a new lifestyle will give you a lot more energy.

CANCER Stress isnâ€™t necessarily a negative thing. It could provide you with the necessary motivation to achieve some brilliant exploits. Schedule some time away from work so you can balance out the diďŹ€erent areas of your life.

LEO

VIRGO A vacation looms on the horizon. Even if it doesnâ€™t take place for a few months, nowâ€™s the time to start preparing â€” perhaps by getting a new passport. ANSWER TO CROSSWORD

You ďŹ nd it hard to tolerate any kind of injustice and you tend to try and resolve unjust situations by yourself. While you play the parts of policeman and judge in one such situation this week, a bit of tact will allow you to manage things more successfully.

GAMES

SAGITTARIUS You will work with a great deal of energy and thoroughness to come to an agreement or sign a contract. Even if you suďŹ€er a lot of anxiety and sleeplessness, you will be extremely successful in the end.

CAPRICORN You may be given a position of authority at work. For the sake of your health it is important to learn how to control your emotions and to express them appropriately when you need to.

AQUARIUS You will see some almost instantaneous results with a new diet. Youâ€™ll ďŹ nd this very satisfying and youâ€™ll be very proud of yourself.

PISCES Youâ€™ll be able to express your feelings with tact and integrity to family members with whom you have something to settle. There will be a bit of nostalgia in the air.

Veteran folkie, children’s performer releases folk tale opus On Saturday, Oct 13 at 2 p.m., awardwinning family entertainer Rick Scott will give a musical reading at the Campbell River Library, to celebrate the release of his new 4-CD musical audio novel The Great Gazzoon – A Tall Tale with Tunes & Turbulence. This is a folk tale told by a veteran folkie: for over 35 years Rick has performed in nine countries and released 18 recordings including seven award-winning children’s CDs. The Great Gazzoon is the epic tale of how one boy’s love of music overcomes his fear and transforms his community. Over four hours and 60 chapters, through narration, dialogue, poetry and music, Scott and 25 actors, singers and musicians embrace themes of literacy, friendship, discovering creative process, overcoming

fear and trusting what you love. CD four, Gazzoon Tunes, contains full and embellished versions of songs from the story, and is also available as a standalone CD. The CDs will be available at the library program, Coho Books and from www. gazzoon.com. Like his ancestors before him, Gazoon Wazoo is supposed to be practicing to walk the wire between the towering peaks of Mount Lanadoon. Instead he’s been playing music and making up songs with a poetrywriting Princess, two thieving friends and his special ekko. Can one boy’s love of music outsmart the angry Winds, defeat wily Lord Grot and bring balance and safety to the Kingdom? Scott was inspired to write Gazzoon after facing his fear learning to walk tightrope to play the title role

in the musical Barnum. He scored the story with folk melodies performed on all manner of dulcimers: strummed, plucked, bowed, E-Bowed, hammered and slide, accompanied by violin, cello, guitar, bass, hang, didgeridoo, percussion, kora, tama, kalimba, shakuhachi, thunder drum, horns, dishwasher and human beat box. Valley Hennell rewrote and adapted the story for sound recording and produced it as audio cinema with a cast including actor/ singers Joelle Rabu, Saffron Henderson and Andrea L’Heureux and musicians, including Doug Edwards, David Essig, Kinobe Herbert, Trish Clair and Kyle Shepard. Scottk and Hennell’s seven previous children’s CDs have been honored with three Ju n o n o m i n at i o n s and Parents’ Choice,

Veteran children’s performer and former folkie Rick Scott has released an ambitious four-CD project featuring dialogue, poetry and music. He will perform it in a free show at the Campbell River library Oct. 13.

NAPPA Gold, iParenting Media & Canadian Folk Music Awards. This free performance at the Campbell River Library will be approximately one hour long, and is most suitable for children aged eight and older. The Campbell River Library is located at 1240 Shoppers Row.

Fawlty crew is back up to their old Antics Antics Theatre is back with another Fawlty Towers’ episode – this time it’s The Builders. How can doors disappear and walls replace them? Only Mr. O’Reilly and his workers can explain it. O’Reilly is played by none other than Antics Theatre’s resident Irishman, Paul Mason, joined by his able crew Kevin McHady and Lee Pollack. Sybil and Basil are leaving the hotel for a golf weekend. Marg Branscombe and Dan Russell pair up as the Fawltys. Manuel (Tim Myerscough) appoints himself the boss of the hotel while Basil and Sybil are away. Don Young, as Major Gowen, is his delightful self not really knowing what’s going on anywhere. Allison Camp has a special delivery for 16 Elwood Place. Fawlty favorite, Deirdre Hartwell falls asleep and causes a problem. Antics Dinner Theatre’s Fawlty Towers - The Builders will be performed at the Willow point Hall Nov. 7-10. Tickets will be on sale Oct. 5 at the Flower Shop in Willow Point. Tickets are $38 (hst included). When your ticket is purchased your seat is reserved.

The 2012/13 Royal LePAGE Midget Tyees p l a c e m e n t ro u n d schedule brought the Tyees to Powell River for a Saturday afternoon match up against the Kings. The game started with the Tyees still looking for their land legs as Powell River came at them hard and physical, outshooting and outplaying the Tyees. Goalie Riley Mathieson was sharp, keeping the Kings off the scoreboard and in spite of a number of power play opportunities, the Tyees didn’t create much in the way of scoring chances in the first. Early in the second, on a Kings roughing penalty, Gavin Rauser scored off a nice feed to put the Tyees on the board. Even though Powell River continued with their aggressive play and gave Campbell River several power p l ay s, t h e T ye e s couldn’t make them pay. As it often happens, a call went the other way and Powell River made no mistake tying the game at one after the second. Again in the third, against the flow of penalties, Powell

River got another chance on the powerplay and a nice deflection from a point shot put the Kings up 2-1. The Tyees made a good push for the last half of the third but in spite of some good opportunities they could not get the equalizer, leaving the final score 2-1 Kings. Sunday the Tyees were at home hosting the Juan de Fuca Grizzlies. Both teams started the game tentatively feeling each other out until the 10 minute mark when a Grizzly came quickly off the bench on a line change to create a two-on-one. A quick shot and the visitors were up one nil. A minute into the second, on a quick pass out from behind the net, third year player Tyler Clark

knotted the score at one apiece. However Juan de Fuca quickly replied on a turnover in the slot, putting the Grizzlies ahead again. Penalty shots are somewhat rare but both teams were awarded one in the second period. The Juan de Fuca goalie turned aside the Tyee shooter. And then later in the period Tyee goalie Colton Thompson made a great stick save to hold the deficit to one.

Young rugby team goes undefeated Tyees: happy with the effort

C a m p b e l l R ive r ’s youngest rugby players visited Comox on Sunday for the Vancouver Island fall season’s first Mini Rugby Jamboree and crossed the try line many times to go undefeated against an assortment of players from the Comox Kickers and the Cowichan Piggies. Speed, determination, and a lot of heart were the difference in their successful morning of rugby. Coaches George Cossenas and Erin Young noted that one player in particular, Haley Wingert, 10, probably made half the team’s tags, resulting in turnovers and many offensive opportunities for herself and her teammates. T ries were made by Winger t, Aidan Lund, Kayla Lund, Tyler Miller and Riory Young. “As these players

to see the gaps in the opposition’s defence and run through them, or put a teammate in a position to use those g aps. Every single player has a humble confidence and trust in their teammates that is true to the nature of the sport. Rugby is so good

for kids both mentally and physically. Play is continuous - once there is a whistle, the kids automatically realign themselves and the ball keeps moving. There is no time to be standing around.” The fall Youth Rugby season runs until the

last part of November, then continues in spring from early March to early May. New players, both boys and girls ages 8-17 are always welcome to join. Call Erin Young at 250-202-7642 or check out the website, www. campbellriver rugby. webs.com

Kurtis Scriba, Scriba made a quick pass out to a wide open Rauser who made no mistake burying the puck to tie the score. The third period had the Tyees pushing hard and on a power play Rauser notched his second of the game, with the lone assist going to Cole Rennie, putting the Tyees ahead. However Juan de Fuca got it back on a breakaway tying the game at three. When the final buzzer sounded the Tyees outshot the Grizzlies 39-15, the score tied at three. Coach Aaron Robertson was pleased with the bounce back effort Sunday after the lackluster game in Powell

River the previous day. “The boys realize that if we bring the effort to every game we play, the results will be there,” Robertson said. “It was tough to end that game with a tie, but we were happy with the effort.” The last placement game is Oct. 13, 4 p.m. at Rod Brind’Amour Arena against Victoria Racquet Club. The Royal LePAGE Midget Tyees will be participating in the Comox Thanksgiving Invitational tournament this weekend and face teams from the Island and Lower Mainland.
