xhausted marathon curler Trevor McClung said it best after 62 hours, 15 minutes and 25 seconds: “I’m going have a beer and then I’m going to go home and lie down for a very long time.”
Just after 10 p.m. Saturday, McClung and his nine Campbell River Curling Club compatriots secured a place in history after a marathon match which saw the curlers play 228 ends and rock their way into the Guinness Book of World Records. McClung, along with Cody Hall, Andrew Veldhuis, Paul Mansueto, Rhys Mansueto,
Ed Mullen, Mike Fowler, Paul Miller, Cliff Carr-Hilton and John LaPointe began their game Thursday at 8 a.m. with the goal of beating the standing record held by the Dumfries Curling Club in Scotland at 61 hours, 39 minutes and 33 seconds. “It was a blast,” McClung said. “We had a few hurdles to
get over. My sanity snapped at about 57 hours into the game. We all rose to the occasion. We were doing it for the community to raise money for charity and to raise awareness for the club.” For LaPointe, at 56 the “token senior,” it was just another day at the rink even though he Continued on A3
Strathcona Regional District director Jim Abram is forging ahead with a sewer system on Quadra Island that was shot down by residents in the spring. Abram said the project, which would extend sewer service to 53 properties in Quathiaski Cove (near the ferry terminal), needs to go ahead. “This has gone on for far too long,” Abram said at regional district Committee of the Whole meeting last week. “The expansion is the only thing that will save the sewer system.” The project was prompted by several requests from Quadra property owners who have been dealing with ongoing septic failure. However, only 30 per cent of affected properties voted in favour of the project via a public petition process in May which required at least 50 per cent approval to go ahead. At the time, the project was expected to cost each property owner an $18,400 one-time payment or a $1,400-$1,600 parcel tax for 20 years. However, the $975,200 project could be subsidized with Gas Tax Funds to lower the price tag for home owners. “Unlike the previous petition process, the use of Gas Tax Funds is being considered for any substantial extension of the sewer system,” said Russ Hotsenpiller, community services manager for Continued on A2

Quadra: Sewer proposal rejected by residents
Soggy volunteers clean up Merecroft neighbourhood More than 30 volunteers braved unrelentingly soggy weather Saturday to do their part to remove refuse from the parks and green spaces around Merecroft Village. The Community Cleanup was sponsored by Tim Hortons and organized by the Greenways Land Trust. In the space of about three hours the dripping volunteers had filled a dumpster with refuse from Robron Park, Pinecrest Park and a park off Quadra Avenue. Their reward was Tim Hortons T-shirts, Tim Bits and lots of hot coffee. Tim Hortons’ owner Dave Paquin said: “We’ve been doing this environmental awareness program for four years now. We’re trying to keep the community and the beaches and the green spaces clean and educate people in conjunction with Greenways Land Trust.” Greenways Land Trust operations manager Erin Nowak

the regional district, in a letter to regional district directors. “This will likely fundamentally lower the individual cost to the landowner to expand the system and may engender a positive response from the community. The petition process completed in May 2012 did not include a subsidy of this nature.” But regional district director Ted Lewis, representing Zeballos, said he didn’t understand why the regional district is pushing something Quadra Islanders made clear they don’t want. “If they don’t support it, they don’t support it,” Lewis said. “I’m really perplexed.

This is an issue that needs to be addressed.” Hotsenpiller said further action will have to wait until 2013, as there’s no money left in the 2012 budget. “The project as a whole can’t advance until a new budget cycle and money is added to it,” he said. In the end, directors recommended that any further work plan or budget items associated with the project be directed towards the 2013 budget. That recommendation will need to go in front of the regional district board in order to be fully endorsed. The regional district may still consider putting the project to a referendum; establishing individualized extensions to the sewer service area to include landowners close to the current sewer infrastructure; or concluding the project for the time being.

we’re enticing people with Gas Tax rebates.” Abram said the petition didn’t tell the whole story. “Two people advertised heavily and lobbied against it because they own two large properties there,” he said. “And they were successful, it was defeated. They clearly didn’t understand that the more people that joined us, the lower the costs would be. If we had a referendum then we’d know what’s really going on.” Abram said as it is, people are not happy with the high sewage system costs and the Quadra Sewer project needs to be a priority for the regional district. “The last one, two or three projects we added (can) wait,” Abram said. “This was here first.

When they were going through their highs and lows they picked each other up … they were all leaders out there.” Co-chair Al Wall said the club had been in contact with Guinness since February. “We had to be precise with everything. We
had to make sure the event went by the book. That included appointing timekeepers and stewards who are not involved with the club.” Each player was allowed a two-hour break every eight hours and, because they were not permitted to leave, had to bunk down in a makeshift dorm with a view of the ice.

Province doesn’t know difference Greyhound reduces between city and regional district service to Campbell River KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Strathcona Regional District had applied in February for a $400,000 grant from the one-time $30 million Community Recreation Fund, only be turned down one month later. In a letter from former Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development Ida Chong, it seems the root of the problem was that the city submitted a letter of support for the arena project as well as its own application for grant funding for Robron Park improvements.

Greyhound Canada plans to reduce bus service to and from Campbell River after the company lost several million dollars last year. Greyhound recently filed an application with the B.C. Passenger Transportation Board to reduce service on 15 routes across the province. Service between Nanaimo and Campbell River is one of those routes expected to take a hit. “Greyhound Canada Transportation ULC proposed to eliminate schedules 5110 and 5118 northbound and schedules 5107 and 5117 southbound between Nanaimo and Campbell River,” said Greyhound in a report explaining its decision. In other words, the company wants to go from a minimum of two trips per day in each direction to one trip a day leaving from Campbell River and one leaving from Nanaimo. The 5110 out of Campbell River has an average passenger load of 20 and generates $6.70 of revenue for Greyhound per passenger mile. The 5118 leaving from Campbell River sees an average of 10.15 riders and generates $3.38 of revenue per passenger mile. Greyhound said it was left with

no choice but to eliminate service on certain routes after losing $1.4 million on scheduled passenger operations in B.C. last year. “These losses are unsustainable,” wrote the company in its report. “GCTU attributes its fiscal 2011/12 B.C. passenger services operating loss to a number of factors including higher costs for fuel and maintenance, reduced ridership, (and) an inflexible provincial regulatory regime that does not allow the company to respond quickly to market and economic changes.” Greyhound hopes to eliminate about 2.2 million operating miles across the province and save approximately $6.75 million in operating costs annually. If Greyhound is not able to achieve those operating savings, the bus company has advised the province it is prepared to stop scheduled bus service in B.C. As of now, Greyhound has plans to abandon one route – seasonal ski service between Victoria and Mount Washington. Last year Greyhound ran one bus per day each way. The northbound bus out of Victoria averaged 2.79 riders and brought in just $0.34 per passenger mile. The bus heading from Mount Washington to Victoria averaged 4.55 passengers and generated $0.56 in revenue per passenger mile.

perate need of repairs; there is concern the concrete slab under the ice will fail, which will make it impossible to keep ice in the rink. Coun. Andy Adams, chair of the Strathcona Gardens Commission, wrote a letter to Chong April 5 describing the importance of the repairs in an appeal of the province’s decision. “The one project that the regional district applied for is a vitally important project to the community as the arena floor and brine lines are on the brink of failure,” Adams wrote. “When we review the list of projects that were approved around the province, the number of regions that had multiple projects approved, and the fact that nearby regions received over $1 million in grant approvals, it leaves us wondering why our application wasn’t given favourable consideration.”

Proposed KFC would complete fast food row However, city staff concerned KRISTEN DOUGLAS
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The city is preparing to bring in more business to complete the Island Highway restaurant complex across from Discovery Harbour mall. The owner of the property is planning
to construct a two-unit building in between Boston Pizza and Wendy’s on the gravel lot that is typically used for parking. “The applicant is requesting a development permit for a commercial building to accommodate a KFC restaurant and a retail unit,” said city planner Chris Osborne in a report to council. “The proposal follows an earlier development permit for the wider site known as Discovery Crescent under which four separate
buildings were permitted but only three developed.” The site was constructed more than 10 years ago and Boston Pizza, Wendy’s, Tim Hortons, and White Spot moved in. T he development was always destined for another building – known as building B. But Osbor ne said staff have some concerns regarding the proposal including the amount of traffic and congestion within a tight space. With the building in
place, there will also be a loss of parking spots, although Osborne said there will still be more spots than are required in the city’s zoning bylaw. There are also concerns regarding the drive-thru for KFC, which will likely be entered at the back of the building and exited perpendicular at the front. “Site accesses would remain as existing, with anticlockwise circulation from the drive-thru,” Osborne said.
“There would be some potential conflict with pedestrians accessing the site, but walkways are clearly marked and due to constrained turning radii around the building, vehicle speeds would be very slow. Further conflict would arise with the egress (comings and goings) from the adjacent Wendy’s drive-thru.” The KFC drive-thru is expected to have a wood trellis alongside it to provide separation from the drivethru lane and the rest
of the complex. It would also provide screening for diners inside Boston Pizza from the glare of headlights sweeping through the drivethru. Despite staff ’s concerns with the proposal, Osborne recommended council approve the proposal at Tuesday’s council meeting, after the Mirror went to press. “Given that the siting of the building and drive-thru has already been established by a previous development

permit and that very limited scope exists to address potential traffic and access issues, the exterior design and landscaping are consistent with the guidelines of the Official Community Plan,” Osborne said. “T he appearance seeks to reflect the maritime location through incorporation of a gable feature in the style of a canning shed, but remaining complementary to the corporate branding of the adjoining KFC unit.”

City wants community input into parks plan Have you completed the Parks Plan survey? Your opinion counts – and there’s still time to share your thoughts. The City of Campbell River’s public survey runs from Oct. 10-22, asking for feedback on the Parks Strategic Plan. Access the survey online on the city’s h o m e p a g e ( w w w. campbellriver.ca) or pick up a paper copy at the Community Centre, Sportsplex or the Parks Office at 385 South Dogwood St. Campbell River’s 10-year Strategic Parks Plan was completed in 2006, and the city is conducting a mid-point check-in. “Through the full public consultation process at that time, citizens made it clear that parks and greenspaces were important to them and that they would be willing to invest more public funds into the system to fund improvements,” says Lynn
The new splash park is just one of several city parks projects that the city wants you to speak up about. The splash park is scheduled to open in time for next summer.
Wark, the City’s parks project supervisor. “Input then brought about a $50 Parks Parcel Tax to direct towards parks improvements.” In the first five years
of the plan, parcel tax funds allowed the parks department to attract partner funding from senior gover nment grants and community groups. “More than 55 per
cent of the funding that went into Campbell River parks improvements under this plan came from partner funding, and that let us complete many improvements sooner,”
Wark adds. “Many of these improvements have been done in partnership with community groups who have contributed labour.” Campbell River parks improvements since
2006 were based on community priorities and have included: sportsfield upgrades such as improved infields and replacement of bleachers, playground replacements, trail development, more washrooms and litter bins in parks, tennis court improvements, and the addition of an outdoor lacrosse box, splash park and community garden to name a few. Have these improvements enhanced our parks and community? Do you visit parks more as a result? These are some of the questions the city would like answered in the public survey. The next five years of the plan calls for additional improvements such as completion of undeveloped water-

Our View
No simple answer to stop cyber-bullying The Amanda Todd story has captured tremendous public and media attention. It’s good that the issue of bullying, and in particular cyber-bullying, has again captured many peoples attention, because it is a pervasive one. It is not confined to children and We say: Rude and teens, as much of the storyline in the abusive behaviour media seems to indicate. There are instances of bullying on very is widespread in many important stages. It happens in Parour society liament, in the provincial legislature, at many council tables and at many, many workplaces. Hostile, insulting and demeaning behaviour is a way of life for many people — and there are thousands of victims.
One venue where bullying is available on an hourly basis is the television screen. Many shows, particularly reality shows, feature rude and abusive words and actions towards others. It sets a very bad example for impressionable people who watch it. Cyber-bullying has become pervasive with the rise of the internet. Young people in particular seem to not fully understand how the words and photos they post go viral and cause damage on a much greater scale than in earlier generations. This is certainly what Amanda Todd was feeling, as cyber-bullying aimed at her simply intensified, even after she changed schools. There are no simple answers. The internet isn’t going away. Rude and abusive behaviour is often learned, but when someone engages in this type of behaviour, it is
very difficult for that person to change. While bullying curricula are now standard at schools, bullying behaviour is best dealt with at home. From the time children are small, parents need to model good behaviour to them — in words and actions. They need to show them that it is unacceptable to call people names, make fun of their looks and post rude things about them online. They also need to offer unconditional love and acceptance to their kids. Those who are bullied need to have immediate and ongoing support. It is difficult to stand up to bullies in schools — even with support from principals and teachers. Leadership on many fronts is needed to help curb bullying. – Black Press
Letters
P3 plan is alarming I am very alarmed that VIHA is contemplating the privatization of some service delivery (i.e. hospital housekeeping) in our new hospital. My primary concern is that the corporate agenda will ensure profits will be more important than healthcare standards and patients’ needs. Our healthcare system is not there (and has never been) to generate profit. The goal is, and should always be, to take care of patients in an efficient, caring manner. Private companies will never be satisfied with a break-even scenario (as the public healthcare system is designed to be). Profit, after all, is the sole purpose and reason for their existence. Another concern that I have is about the incorrect argument that we cannot afford the current system, and that privatization would be more cost effective. Although it is true that via privatization qualified personnel would face significant job losses and/or wage decreases, this does not equal money saved for tax payers. In fact, as the corporate model demonstrates again and again, the difference in wages would go towards Continued on A9

Fantasies won’t keep B.C.’s ferries afloat
Tom Fletcher B.C. Views
It was a sunny Thanksgiving weekend when I took my first all-transit trip from Victoria to Vancouver for a B.C. Lions football game. Despite all the doomsaying about people shunning ferries because of some media-determined “tipping point” in fares, you wouldn’t have guessed it that weekend. Articulated buses were jammed coming and going from the Tsawwassen terminal to the Canada Line. Returning to Vancouver Island on Sunday, I was struck by the crowds, and the low cost: SkyTrain, express bus, walk-on passenger fare and express bus to Victoria totalled about $20. This explains the surge in walk-on traffic.
BC Ferries issued bulletins advising first that Tsawwassen’s parking lot and then Swartz Bay’s were full. The Tsawwassen First Nation’s shuttle parking next door was overflowing, with cars tucked into every level space. And even with hourly sailings, the major route had plenty of vehicle traffic, with all available vessels running. Now the long, late summer is gone, and the political theatre resumes. Transportation Minister Mary Polak picked up where the retiring Blair Lekstrom left off, reminding people that BC Ferries is going to deal with rising costs primarily by ceasing the practice of running vessels a third full or less.
This comes as “consultation” begins with smaller ferry communities on where and when these sailings will be cut. And it follows the first major price-cap decision by the newly empowered B.C. Ferry Commissioner, Gord Macatee. He now can determine service levels as well as fares, which are permitted to rise about four per cent in each of the next three years. The NDP’s ferry critic, North Coast MLA Garry Coons, has also decided to transition to his government pensions next year. But before he sails away, he has doubled his repertoire of outraged sound bites to two. Along with every coffee-shop know-
it-all on the coast, Coons perpetually reminds us that ferries are “part of our highway system.” He remains convinced that this financially illiterate cliché somehow deals with the fact that even a subsidy approaching $200 million this year can’t keep all those boats afloat forever. A family of four on a long driving trip faces similar price increases, when you factor in tolls, insurance, food and other costs beyond the fuel tank. But for some reason the “government” is supposed to provide special relief to those who choose the most inaccessible places to live. tfletcher@ blackpress.ca

Hospital project: Health care is not about profit over people Continued from A8 the six-digit salaries and bonuses of CEOs of transnational companies and their shareholders instead of towards improving our healthcare. The instability of private incorporated companies is an additional worry that I hope the Regional District will consider. These companies can cease to exist at any time, leaving the hospital scrambling to keep services going. An example of this can be seen with the Por t Mann Bridge project in Vancouver, where a P3’s consortium went bankrupt in mid-construction, and it was the taxpayers who ended up with the bill. Another example of this is the Royal Jubi-
lee Hospital in Victoria. They once had a fine cafeteria, where even people from the neighborhood would visit to purchase good, nutritious meals. It was replaced with a private company under the Compass Group Canada name. T he Hospital was very unhappy about the services Compass provided, and when the contract came up for renewal, VIHA hired another company named Marquise which was soon bought out by Compass, and VIHA could do nothing about it. On a personal note, a family health crisis brought me to both the Nanaimo General Hospital Emergency department and the Campbell River Emer-
gency department two weeks ago. The difference in the standard of cleanliness in the two facilities was striking and upsetting. The floors of the Nanaimo Emergency department were filthy, compared to the Campbell R iv e r E m e r g e n c y department, which was so much cleaner. I discovered afterwards that the housekeeping services in Nanaimo General Hospital are provided by a private company via the Compass Group Canada. It is important to note that due to unsatisfactory services, VIHA is opting out of its contract with Compass and seeking new Hospital Housekeeping and Cleaning Services. Please keep in mind that VIHA (BC taxpay-
ers), pay huge sums of money for negotiating every new contract with private companies, (i.e. the new P3 hospital in Abbotsford faced a total cost of $24.3 million in lawyer fees alone for all the negotiations with private companies). All of the money used for negotiations is taken out of our healthcare dollars and should ideally be used for healthcare instead. In the case of the Nanaimo Regional Hospital, the cost of negotiating with a new housekeeping company will not be nearly as high, but high never the less. These are just few examples of the problems that privatization of our hospital will create. The list can go
on. I appeal to you, the elected officials, that you seriously consider all the issues involved in VIHA’s attempt to privatize services in the new Campbell River Regional Hospital. Your decision today will affect our generations to come… your children and grandchildren. Healthcare is not about profit. Our tax dollars pay for it and our tax dollars shouldn’t be a source of income for private companies. When we (or our loved ones) are faced with an illness and need hospital care, cleanliness and nutritious meals are corners that should never be cut for corporate gain. Anna Kubacki Campbell River

Phoenix students reach out The Thanksgiving Food Bank Drive was a big success this year with the Phoenix Middle School Community donating hundreds of cans and packages of nonperishable food to the Campbell River Food Bank. Lynn Nash, former school district superintendent (pictured far right) and Mayor Walter Jakeway were on hand to help the Grade 8 leadership students pack up and deliver the food to the Food Bank in hopes of helping support families in need. Leadership students were also busy raising money in the month of September for the Terry Fox Foundation through a school wide BBQ as well as responding to the call of help for towels for the Second Chance Recovery House.

Unique art project commemorates Community Living Month
A
s the province celebrates Community Living Month, Greg Hill, executive director of the Campbell River and District Association for Community Living, was looking for a unique way to mark the occasion. Hill was impressed with Campbell River artist John Bailey’s intricate drawings of local landmarks, so approached him about creating some special pieces to capture the Association’s many and varied properties in works of art. Members of the public may have noticed Bailey working away outside the Association’s 10 buildings in recent weeks. He’s been at Nifty Thrifty, Ironwood Place, Our Place,

in the computer, but it’s never the same as someone sitting there working.” The Association has 10 buildings, but Bailey estimates he’ll have done more than 100 sketches by the time the project is done. He does a quick sketch upon arrival, then builds on what he sees. Bailey is an accomplished artist with a long history in a variety of styles, including work in film and theatre, prop building, scenic art, wearable art and much more. For years he loved doing pen and ink drawings, but when he discovered the joy of working with felt pens, he knew he was onto something. “You can do so much more with a felt pen,”
he said. “I just love them.” He loves creating works of art based on local scenes and said he’s enjoying helping the Association create something they can keep forever as a record of their success. The Association celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2011 and its history is long and truly amazing. Fifty-one years ago, a group of parents gathered together to form a society to provide services for their children with developmental disabilities. They had no budget and no experience, but they built the foundation of what would become today’s C.R. Association for Community Living – a large non-profit organization that provides
a huge variety of programs and is one of Campbell River’s biggest employers. The Association services include, but are not limited to, supported employment, a beloved downtown centre called Our Place, an employment program called Skyline Productions, group homes, Sunrise Resources for Early Childhood Development and Ironwood Place, which is an assisted living facility in downtown Campbell River. They offer services to people in every age group in Campbell River. In 1961, the Association had a budget of just hundreds of dollars. Today, their annual budget is more than $8 million and Continued on A13

Art project.... Continued from A11 their services are continually growing. Hill said it’s wonderful to see the Association growing by leaps and bounds and he’s thrilled that Bailey’s art will capture this moment in time. “It’s been an exciting time for the Association, after celebrating our 50th anniversary last year and opening Palmer Place this year, so we’re really pleased to be doing something special and unique to mark Community Living Month this year,” Hill said. Every year in October the province of B.C. and the B.C. Association for Community Living celebrate the gifts that people with developmental disabilities bring to our communities. “Community Living Month reminds us of the abilities and strengths that exist within all of us - as individuals, families, schools, workplaces, communities,” says Faith Bodnar, Executive Director of the BC Association for Community Living. “It reminds us that together we are vibrant, diverse and hopeful. We are far more than a reflection of the supports and services we may receive.” BCACL is also hosting a video contest to celebrate the month. Visit: www.bcacl.org/ lights-camera-inclusion for more.

Member’s daughter sparks Altrusa donation
T
he KidStart Volunteer Mentoring Program received a $750 donation from the Campbell River Chapter of Altrusa International. Edie Wilcox, Altrusa member, said the club was inspired by her daughter to donate to KidStart. “The Altrusa Club first learned about KidStart from my daughter who was a mentor of a little girl for a few years. It is a program that is very needed in our community because it provides children with support. Children are our future and we need to help them with our time and friendship.”

brought up watching her family volunteer their time and give back to the community. Now volunteering to make a difference has become a part of her life too. “Although her mentee is no longer in KidStart, they’ve developed a lifelong friendship and continue to see each other. My daughter has experienced a lot of joy and positive feedback about the difference she’s made, and had an opportunity to make a positive impact on a young woman’s life. Hopefully her mentee will grow up and carry it forward as well,” Edie said. KidStart welcomes
community contributions. If you have three or more hours a week to spare and would like to volunteer, consider becoming a KidStart mentor. If you’d like to make a donation or can provide a discount on recreational activities, get in touch. Interested in signing up as a regular supporter?

Recycling nets cash for two local schools Two Campbell River schools have earned more than $1,700 in recycling income that will be used to fund student activities and purchasen much neede equipment. Southgate Middle School students and teachers collected 18,444 beverage containers and ear ned $966.97 in de posit refunds earning an Honourable Mention (fourth place) in their enrollment category of 501 to 750 students during the 2011/2012 Encorp B.C. School Recycling Program. Ecole Phoenix Middle School was hot on the heelsnof Southgate collecting 15,521 containers and receiving $783.25 in deposit refunds. Sandy Sigmund, Vice President Development of Encorp Pacific (Canada), praised the schools’ efforts. “Campbell River students, teachers and parents are putting in a
strong effort diverting beverage containers from landfills. All the money stays with the school that earned it going towards enhancing student activities and the purchasing of equipment.” Encorp Pacific (Canada) BC School Recycling Program provides schools with the tools and resources to make recycling easy, convenient and profitable. Since the program’s inception in 2000, more than 40 million containers have been recycled and B.C. schools have been refunded more than $2.4 million. Schools keep 100 per cent of the deposit refunds for each container collected and the program is free of charge. T he schools are grouped into categories, based on student enrollment, and the schools that collect the most containers in each category win
cash prizes of $1,000, $750 and $500 for first, second and third. For more information of how to participate in the program go to www.return-it.ca/ youthcentre. Encorp Pacific (Canada) is a federally incorporated not-forprofit stewardship corporation with beverage container management as its core business. T he company is committed to developing and managing a consumer-friendly and cost-effective system to recover beverage containers from consumers and ensure that they are recycled and not incinerated or land filled. Encorp also provides stewardship services on a contract basis to the electronics industry for the collection and recycling of regulated products, as well as the dairy industry to manage voluntary milk recycling program.

Exchange project celebrates diversity The Cultural Exchanges project, hosted by the Immigrant Welcome Centre starting this fall through summer 2013, is showcasing eight ethnic groups. The project will share artsbased customs such as traditional food, dance, crafts, stories and music. One in 10 Campbell River citizens is foreign born according to BC Stats. This means there are many ethnic groups to learn from right here in the community. Exchange workshops are free and open to the public. To learn more or become part of the project you can contact Diversity Projects Coordina-
tor Shannon Briggs at 250-8300171. Taking part is the Filipino Association, Italian Cultural Association¸ Guru Nanak Sikh Society, Laichwiltach Learning Program, the Cree and Dené community and the Syrian community. Video clips of the workshops will be shown during Multicultural Week this November, the Winter Festival, Lunar New Year and Canada Day 2013. “Community interest in learning about unfamiliar cultures is growing,” says Rachel Blaney, Executive Director of the Immigrant Welcome Centre. “We are happy to facilitate
these exchanges to increase awareness and understanding of the diversity that lives in Campbell River.” A past project, “Stories of Campbell River through Graphic Recording”, was recently chosen to present “best practices” in Vancouver this October to funders and other multicultural and antiracism organizations. “I am honoured that the province sees Campbell River’s commitment to be inclusive and end discrimination. “We are excited our project was chosen as a positive example for other communities in British Columbia” says Briggs.
Managing Your Money Incorporation consideration 4x10 If you’re a small unincorporated business owner or a professional whose regulatory body allows incorporation, you’ve probably given the potential bene¿ts of incorporating a great deal of thought. The most often cited bene¿ts of incorporation are a more advantageous tax structure and creditor-proo¿ng personal ¿nances. But there can be drawbacks. Here are some of the issues to consider when making your ‘incorporate or not’ decision. Cash Flow If you need all of the pro¿ts from your business to support your personal cash Àow needs, incorporation may not be for you because the cost of setting up and maintaining the corporation could outweigh any tax bene¿ts. On the other hand, if you are ¿nancially able to retain some pro¿ts inside the company, you could derive signi¿cant tax savings. Taxation Vexation If you are just starting your business, incorporation should probably wait because losses incurred by an incorporated business can’t Àow through to shareholders. In the early stages of your business, you’re likely better off using losses personally against other income. Once your business begins earning ‘active business income’ (income earned from your business operation, not, for example, from other corporate investments) you may gain an immediate tax break (in some provinces) and the opportunity to defer part of your tax payment. Creditor-proo¿ng Personal Assets Corporate creditors can only

go after assets owned by the corporation, but banks and other suppliers often require small business owners to personally guarantee corporate liabilities and corporate directors may be liable for many types of unpaid debts such as outstanding income tax, HST, GST and employee source deductions. Incorporation may provide some creditor protection, but only if properly structured, so speak to an advisor to ensure you are protected. Other Potential Advantages of incorporation • Income-splitting to reduce taxes by making your spouse or adult children shareholders – dividends will be taxed in their hands – or employing them as long as the remuneration is reasonable for the work performed. • Deferring certain expenses. For example, you can report employee bonuses for tax purposes before yearend but actually pay out the bonus money after year-end. • Leaving assets in the corporation where they will continue to grow on a taxdeferred basis until you choose
the withdraw them. • Creating a registered pension plan and taxdeductible group health and life insurance plan for you and your employees (which could include family members). • Choosing a ¿scal year spanning any 12-month period. Select a ¿scal year that coincides with business or cash Àow peaks or when corporate expenses are higher (potentially reducing your tax bite). Incorporating a business comes with costs – from initial setup and legal costs to ongoing requirements for tax returns and corporate resolutions – and other legal requirements. But if you think incorporation may be right for you, speak with your legal and tax advisor and professional advisor before you do.

Turn that economic frown updside down C
anadian humourist, storyteller, musician and playwright Lorne Elliott is bringing The Upside Of The Downturn, his show of comedy and music theatre to the Quadra Community Centre on Friday, Nov. 2 at 8 p.m. Elliott’s always comically-insightful concert performance is a selection of his current monologues and songs dealing with life experience. Creating new stage material about having to redefine priorities in view of life events is a welcome challenge to this writer and stage performer who enjoys shaking the perceived wisdom of the world around him. His one-man show concert presentation is delightfully foolish, witty and thoughtprovoking. Combining dry humour with musical parodies and skits, Elliott is a shrewd observer of the human animal. Often self-deprecating, always silly and never profane, Elliott’s funny is family friendly. Canadian born, Elliott has performed from Newfoundland to New York City, from Los Angeles to Australia and points in between. Elliott started performing in 1974 as a folk musician in Eastern Canada. At the same time he kept writing fiction as well as songs, monologues and one-liners. The outcome of such training is a very special show of comedy and music, totally original, entertaining, up-lifting and humorous enough to make everybody laugh. Along with his unique and wacky performance style, it is the timelessness of his material, joined with keen observations of today’s trends that make Elliott’s work so special. For the past 26 years, Elliott has been touring and performing in concert theatres and arts centres across Canada, the U.S. and Australia. Regularly featured on TV on such programs as The Just For Laughs Comedy Festival and Comedy Variety Specials in Canada and the US, his own weekly CBC Radio Comedy Series, Madly Off In All Directions started airing in January 1996 and continued for 11 seasons. Critics praise Elliott’s work as an antidote to today’s sometimes depressing current events: “Fast, foolish and lots of laughs! […] a most enjoyable evening of genuine wit and humour.” - The Evening Telegram (St. John’s, Nfld.) Advance tickets for Lorne Elliott’s performance on Quadra are $17 ($20 at the door) and are available at the Music Plant in Campbell River, and on Quadra at Hummingbird Office and Art Supply in Quathiaski Cove and at Works of H’Art in Heriot Bay. For more information, please call 250285-2580 or visit www.lorne-elliott.com.

Comedian Lorne Elliott will provide an antidote to today’s sometimes depressing current events in his show The Upside of the Downturn.
Fall for the big yellow hall By Crackey! It’s October already and it’s time for the first Community Contra Dance at the almost famous Big Yellow Merville Hall. On Saturday, Oct. 20, bring your pigsney partner and whoop it up to the Contra Dance tunes of the Funtime Fiddlers. These musical maestros will be playing the fiddle tunes for your dancing pleasure while our dance caller, June Cannon, keeps everyone prancing merrily along. As usual, there will be a Contra Dance workshop right before the dance. From 6:45-7:15 p.m., June will introduce the dancers to new moves as well as teach the basic moves. This workshop is free of charge so plan to come early. At 7:30 p.m., the Funtime Fiddlers start the music and the dancing begins. Single dancers are most welcome as they can pair up with anyone during the Contras and our Contra sets last about 15-20 minutes per dance. In between the called Contra dances, we’ll play waltzes, foxtrots, polkas and even a Spot Dance for your enjoyment. This way, there is a dance for everyone and everyone gets a good workout. Doors open at 7 p.m, dance starts at 7:30 p.m. Cost is $10/adults, $5/youth and you can come as a family for $22.

DROP-IN OPEN HOUSES
The Vancouver Island Health Authority is hosting drop-in open houses for the North Island Hospitals Project. These open houses will focus on the design guidelines for the new hospitals, such as building scale and form, landscaping, safety and security, among many others. Find out more about the project’s design guidelines and how the North Island Hospitals Project will support you and your family’s health care needs when these new state-of-the-art acute care facilities open in spring 2017.

Remembrance Day, Sunday November 11, will once again be honoured in words and song by Island Voices Chamber Choir, under the direction of JoAnne Preston. The Remembrance Day concert seeks to acknowledge those who make and have made sacrifices in war-time and to celebrate those who use their lives in the service of peace. The power of music to access our deepest feeling is revealed in the range and beauty of songs written for occasions of remembrance. In their 2012 offering, the reality of soldiering is echoed in
the poignancy of such songs as Canadian Soldier and In Flanders Fields; faith is expressed in Prayer of St Francis, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms and Oseh Shalom; friendship is honoured in Stand Together, and hope for peace is sung in Dona Nobis Pacem and Earth Song. T hese and other songs will be interwoven with a selection of readings by community members which underline the theme
of remembrance. Voices In Remembrance will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 11 in Christ the King Catholic Church in Courtenay, and at 7 p.m. in St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Campbell River. Admission will be by donation, with partial proceeds to the Royal Canadian Legion. For more information call 250-338-1439, 250-287-4236, or visit w w w. i s l a n dvo i c e s chamberchoir.bc.ca.

Downs, David Anthony
With great sadness, the family of David Downs announce his passing at home in Victoria BC on October 7, 2012 after an extended battle with cancer. Predeceased by his father James Downs and his mother Matty Downs, David is survived by his daughter Carrie-Lynn McInnes (Dean) of Campbell River, his son Travis Downs (Carolina) of Vancouver and his grandson Cody Cahill of Campbell River. David is also survived by his sisters Anita Joyce (Hugh), Victoria and Marguerite Downs, Duncan; his brother Jim Downs, Duncan; his uncle Charles Downs (Mary), Port Coquitlam; and his nephews Dustin Downs (Melissa), Victoria, Joel Downs, Duncan, and Adam Downs, Duncan. Lovingly remembered by his close friend MaryAnn Routh of Campbell River. Growing up in Campbell River, Dave had many friends but the adventures always started and ended with Trevor and AJ. Back then they were inseparable and lifelong friends. Some of the stories about his bike trips and mishaps should be in a book but you had to hear Dave tell them to really appreciate the experience. Did I ever tell you about the time ....? Working for Sea Span for many years as a Cook/Deckhand, Dave loved the life and the companionship. And of course, if you ever wanted to get hold of Dave but couldn’t - you could be sure he was at ‘Church’ or at the ‘OfďŹ ce’. The family wishes to thank MaryAnn Routh for the loving care she provided to David in her home in the weeks prior to his move to Victoria. We welcome you to join us in a Celebration of David’s Life at the ‘OfďŹ ce’ (the Quinsam Hotel) on Sunday, October 21, 2012 from 1:30 - 4:00 PM.

BRIAN KIERAN/THE MIRROR
The Timberline Wolves’ offence lines up during Saturday’s 38-0 victory against Edward Milne (Sooke).
Wolves keep rolling along Ryan Toporowski has been named new head coach of the Campbell River Storm.
“Live your life and play the game so that when you need a friend, you can always count on your teammates.”
The famous quote by Jim Brown – named as the greatest professional football player ever – was written on the game program last Saturday and illustrates the heart of the Timberline Wolves football team. The team stepped up, they
depended on each other and they demonstrated to their supporters, their appreciation for the opportunity to play football, said team spokesperson Karen Chickite. It was cloudy outside, but the Timberline Football Team worked hard to shine, winning 38 – 0 against Edward Milne, putting them at 3 and 0. Brenda Leigh, Area Dr
regional district director, was part of the crowd at Saturday’s game, cheering on the home team, and took center field at half-time, presenting each one of the grade 12 players who are playing their last year of Timberline football, with an engraved keepsake. She also donated $4,000 to keep the team going. And the Wolves give back, too. With the help of Save-
On-Foods, after the game, the Wolves provided complimentary hot dogs and pop to the visiting team and their coaches before they got back on their bus to head home to Sooke. In response to the gesture, their coach said, “You are such great hosts. We really enjoyed being here. Thank you.” The next home game is Saturday, Oct. 27.
The No. 1 Autobody Bantam A Tyees travelled to Port Moody over the Thanksgiving long weekend for a tournament. They played a total of five games over four days while some parents managed to incorporate a little retail therapy that included a trip to a large Scandinavian store known for home furnishings and flat-box packages that you assemble yourself. T he first g ame was against Cloverdale. Right off of the drop of the puck, Dawson Frank scored, assisted by
Sage Lim, to give the Tyees a lead after only five seconds. Cloverdale was still breaking the smelling salts open when Frank scored again twenty-one second later, assisted by Lim and Lukas Lund. The Tyee forecheck was tenacious and generated turnovers which resulted in scoring chances. While on the power play, Josh Coblenz buried the rebound from Brendan Hoff ’s howitzer of a point-shot to extend the Tyees’ lead. Later, while short-handed, Coblenz won the race to the puck and fed
a perfect pass over to Cory Bukauskas which resulted in the Tyees first short-handed goal of the season. Cloverdale was able to get on the board late in the game but Dominik Bellefleur made some key saves along the way as the Tyees won 4-1. Game MVP was Bellefleur. Game two had the Tyees squaring off against North Shore Winter Club (NSWC) 2. The Tyees showed that they can more than hold their own against NSWC as they dominated play when it was five skaters on five
skaters. Unfortunately one of their favourite weapons, the power play, seemed to be caught in a many-sailingswait at Departure Bay and wasn’t with them for this game. NSWC took a 1-0 lead in the first period while on the power play and extended it in the second on another power play. Kyle Franceschini was keeping the game within reach and giving the Tyees a chance in fine Grant Fuhr fashion. NSWC scored again late in the second period to make it a 3-0 game. Continued on A34
Campell River Storm coaching staff gets clean sweep Bantam A Tyees hit the road to Port Moody The Campbell River Storm will have a new bench boss for their next game vs the Peninsula Panthers this Friday in Victoria. The Storm have parted ways with head coach Rob Voltera as well as assistant coach, Dave Wing and goalie coach, Tyson Hicks. Taking over the helm and steering the team in a new direction will be former assistant coach Ryan Toporowski, a member of the Storm alumni and a previous assistant coach with the Saanich Braves. Toporowski is also the Head Instructor of the Storm Hockey Academy in conjunction with SD72. The 3-6-1 (W-L-OTL) Storm have seven points and are in last place in the northern division of the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League. The Campbell River Storm ownership thanked Voltera, Wing and Hicks for their service to this club and community and wished them continued success.

Tyees: Lose heartbreaker in double OT Continued from A33 The Tyees broke the goose-egg as Coblenz buried the rebound from a Hoff point-shot after Bukauskas got the puck to him. Midway through the third period, Olivia Knowles put the puck down low to Coblenz and he slid it to Frank for a wide-open goal from inside the right hash mark. Now trailing 3-2, the Tyees poured on the pressure but NSWC withstood it to win the game. Franceschini was selected the Tyees MVP for this game. Game three against Vancouver was almost a case of everything going the Tyees’ way. Everyone was contributing with either body-checks on the forecheck or backchecking to neutralize the counterattack. Passes were tape-totape, hard and crisp. The Tyees kept their foot on the gas and put Vancouver away with a complete team effort; final score 9-2. Game MVP was Darian Swift as he showed why there are many
who believe he is a complete power-forward and someone to keep an eye on down the line. The semi-final game had the Tyees matched against the host team from Port Moody. Some players seemed nervous but a few shifts of end-to-end action helped settle those nerves, especially when the forechecking resulted in a couple of good scoring chances. Despite controlling most of the play, the first period ended with Port Moody ahead by a score of 2-1. The Tyees were able to tie the score late in the second when Coblenz fired a shot that the goalie got most of but not all of‌and Lim was able to put the loose puck behind the goalie into the empty net. The third period was entertaining as the Tyee forecheck kept pressure on Port Moody. Their efforts were rewarded as Coblenz fed the puck to Lim at the Port Moody blueline. Lim beat the
defenceman wide and as he cut to the net to what appeared to be his forehand, he put the puck into the net on his backhand for a great highlight reel goal. The Tyees were able to kill off a late penalty and win by a score of 3-2. Game MVP was awarded to Coblenz. The final game gave the Tyees a rematch against NSWC‌and this one didn’t disappoint anyone who saw it as it went to doubleovertime. The Tyees started slowly and NSWC made them pay dearly for their lethargy as they jumped out to a 2-0 lead at the end of the first period. The paint may have been blistered slightly as the coaches reminded the players that the period had not been up to the same standard as earlier and they needed to re-focus on the task at hand. The pep talk seemed to have some effect as Coblenz received a pass from Lim and wired a shot from twenty feet out to get

the Tyees on the scoreboard. A brief loss of focus allowed NSWC to make a tap-in goal of their own. Coblenz got the puck to Bukauskas as they worked their magic again while short-handed for a tapin goal to bring it to 3-2. NSWC got one more before the end of the second to extend their lead to 4-2. Cue the theme from “Rocky� as the Tyees kept working in the third period. With eleven minutes left to play in regulation, Coblenz brought the Tyees within one goal as he fired the puck high on the blocker side. About six minutes later, Swift let loose with a howitzer of his own to bring the Tyees even with NSWC, 4-4. The first five minute overtime period had four skaters against four skaters. The Tyees put some pressure on NSWC but couldn’t seem to put the biscuit in the basket. Matt Barker and Dustin Kew were launching bombs from the point but the score
remained tied. The second overtime period was three-onthree. Knowles jumped low from the point but had the puck jump on her. T h e T ye e s ke p t forechecking and were putting everything they could on the net. With just over a minute left and a shootout looming, NSWC were able to find an open defenceman and he stepped into a shot that Franceschini had no chance on. F i n a l s c o re w a s NSWC 5, Tyees 4 with Lim ear ning game MVP honours. Aggregate scoring for the tour nament was Coblenz (8 goals, 10 assists); Lim (4G, 5A); Hoff (1G; 5A); Frank and Swift (3G); Bukauskas (2G, 1A); Tyler Dickson (1G; 2A); Barker, Kew and Knowles (2A); Lund and Liam Rivett (1A). Although they weren’t on the scoring summaries, Doug Campbell, Maddison Devlin, Will McLean and Marcellus Wilson also contributed to the team’s results.

mall and mediumsized businesses have become the cornerstone of Campbell River’s evolving economy. And, there is no better time to celebrate the contributions of those businesses than during Small Business Week. For the third year the Campbell River Mirror is proud to publish “Profiles of Excellence,” an annual small business supplement that showcases the services of a cross section of the city’s bedrock businesses. In the supplement, which will be delivered with your regular Friday edition of the
Mirror, you will find profiles of more than 25 businesses from tire stores to cabinet makers, from chiropractors to flower shops. “There are a couple of themes that emerge as common to all these businesses,” says Mirror publisher Zena Williams, “and they are a dedication to quality customer service, product excellence and pride in people.”
“Our small business leaders and their teams exemplify entrepreneurial spirit and risk taking. Their ideas and innovation are helping shape a prosperous business climate and define a brightening future for Campbell River. We are pleased to be able to showcase their business, their products and their people in the Profiles of Excellence edition,” Williams says.
