Idle No More takes hold in Campbell River KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The grassroots Idle No More movement is not just about First Nations, but protecting every Canadian’s right to healthy waterways and lands, said local organizer Shawn Decaire. That was the message as Idle No More hit the streets of Campbell River Saturday morning, with a march from the Big House to the ferry terminal. A group of 10 police officers and several RCMP cruisers briefly blocked traffic along the way to allow the rally to move safely. The march was one of several held by First Nations across Canada in response to the federal government’s omnibus Bill C-45 which First Nations fear will radically change the Indian Act and the Navigation Protection Act (formerly the Navigable Waters Protection Act). Decaire said although the movement has been spearheaded by First Nations, it affects everybody. “This is not a matter of First Nations people, this is a matter of our lands, our waters,” he said. “It was once said if man killed the water, he would kill the lands and would therefore kill us. It’s time we put a stop to this action.
It is time we stand up for what we all want.” Bill C-45 proposes to change the Indian Act to allow First Nations to hold a simple majority vote on leasing out their reserve lands and the majority would rule, no matter how many people actually participated in the vote. Currently, the majority only wins if it represents the majority of eligible voters. The bill also seeks to change the Navigation Protection Act to make it easier for major pipeline and power line projects to advance by not requiring the proponents to prove their project won’t destroy or damage a waterway. Finally, Bill C-45 would change the Environmental Assessment Act by cutting down on the number of projects that require an Environmental Assessment and speeding up the approval process for those that do. Four women – Nina Wilson, Sylvia McAdam, Jessica Gordon, and Sheelah McLean – were the first to hold rallies in protest of the bill and on Dec. 10, 2012 a National Day of Solidarity and Resurgence was called. The event has taken off from there and marches have been held nation-wide. In Campbell River, protesters Continued on A2

Idle: Hoping to educate Continued from A1 gathered last Friday – the day Prime Minister Stephen Harper met with the Assembly of First Nations to address resolution of land claims and other aboriginal issues – on the lawn in front of city hall and on Saturday the movement continued. Participants stood in the middle of the road and handed out informational leaflets to motorists along the Island Highway at the traffic lights by the ferry terminal. Decaire said it was not to inconvenience drivers but to educate them. “Look at those mountains,” said Decaire, pointing towards Quadra Island.

“Twenty years from now they will be bare. They will look to the fish in the oceans – they will be no more. That is why we are here today to pass that word to the public. Not to stop the public but to pass that message on, to please understand that we’re doing this to help protect our country.” James Quatell, Campbell River Indian Band elder, said he hopes that message gets through. “We’re going to move this, and this is what we are continuously going to do,” Quatell said. “Those three words, ‘idle no more’, we are going to idle no more. That is what we want the community of Campbell River to understand.
“We are not being forceful against anything. They need to understand out there when we make the biggest move they’re going to be behind us, they have to. They know it, you know it, I know it.” Meanwhile, First Nations across the rest of the country are planning to ramp up Idle No More protests today, as activists are calling it a day of protest. Demonstrators plan to continue circulati n g i n fo r m at i o n a l pamphlets to educate Canadians. In Campbell River, the next Idle No More rally takes place Saturday, at 11:30 a.m. at the Campbell River Big House.

Embezzlement case will be heard by judge alone KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Century celebration Edna Hewitt blows out her birthday candle to celebrate her 100th anniversary last Thursday at the Adult Care Society in Willow Point. Hewitt lived most of her life in Saskatchewan and helped re-roof her own home at the age of 90.
The former chair of Discovery Passage school’s Parent Advisory Council and her husband, who are both charged with embezzling funds raised for the school, made their first court appearance Monday. Jessica Taylor, 35, and husband Neil Taylor, 35, stood before Justice of the Peace Christine Ballman as Neil’s defence lawyer, James Hormoth, and Brian Dybwad (agent for Doug Marion, Jessica’s defence lawyer) said they had elected to go to trial before a judge alone. Dybwad said Marion “estimates four days (for the trial) – three days for a preliminary inquiry.” The Taylors are expected back in court on Monday. Both Jessica and Neil have plead not guilty to one count of fraud over $5,000 and one count of theft over $5,000. The pair allegedly stole the money from the small elementary school’s Parent Advisory Council between Dec. 1, 2010 and Jan. 31, 2012. During that time, Jessica served as the chair for part of the 2011/12 school year and as treasurer in 2011, while Neil filled the role of treasurer in 2011-12. RCMP Staff Sgt. Troy Beaure-
gard said police received a complaint from the Parent Advisory Council last January, and after a lengthy investigation, the Taylors were charged on Nov. 9 with one count each of theft and fraud. Jessica was the driving force behind a campaign to raise money for the school to fund a new playground throughout 2011 and the early part of 2012. She was concerned after the school district tore down the old wooden climber that the students would have nothing to play on, particularly the influx of young students who were about to start all-day kindergarten that fall. The Mirror covered Jessica’s – and the rest of the Parent Advisory Council’s – rigourous fundraising efforts over a span of a year and a half. Over that time, the parent group raised about $8,000 through a fun fair, magazine sales, a student’s pledges collected for completing the Great Walk from Tahsis to Gold River, plus a $10,000 reimbursement grant from the province to cover an addition added to the original playground. The school finally did get its playground after Jessica was no longer on the Parent Advisory Council, thanks to a $50,000 provincial grant it received in June 2012.

MLA: Loss of citizenship ceremony will deter immigration to Campbell River KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The federal government’s move to cut local citizenship ceremonies and testing will likely hurt Campbell River’s chances at attracting immigrants,
says North Island MLA Claire Trevena. Trevena said it’s a concern that government services for immigrants are so far from home. Citizenship and Immigration offices in Nanaimo and Victoria were shut down in May

due to budget cuts, now the closest office is in Vancouver. “You want to encourage immigrants to settle here but if you make it hard to take the citizenship test here and you make it hard to settle here, they’re not
going to want to move here,” Trevena said. For more than 40 years, Campbell River has hosted its own citizenship ceremonies for immigrants being sworn in as new Canadians at the the Maritime Heritage Centre.
But last week, Campbell River’s Immigrant Welcome Centre raised the flag that there are no further plans for local ceremonies. Philippe Couvrette, spokesperson for Citizenship and Immigration Canada, told the

Gun conviction earns three-year jail sentence Handgun, drugs and man covered in blood found in car PAUL RUDAN Bob Bray (left) was nominated as the BC Conservatives candidate for the upcoming provincial election. Party leader John Cummins (right) addressed the meeting at the Campbell River Seniors Centre on Friday.
Cummins wants more jobs for B.C. ALISTAIR TAYLOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The B.C. Conservatives want to stem the flow of workers and jobs pouring out of the province. “Job creation has to be a priority,” said party leader John Cummins at a North Island constituency association nomination meeting held at the Campbell River Seniors Centre on Friday. Cummins was the featured speaker at a meeting that saw Bob Bray nominated as the BC Conservatives candidate for the spring election. While seniors centre members enjoyed their weekly lunch and a couple shot some pool, the Conservatives held their nomination meeting. After announcing Bray’s appoint-
ment, Cummins addressed the lunching seniors. His message was one of restoring opportunities to the province with the aim of keeping families together in their communities and stopping the exodus of workers to Alberta. “More people have left British Columbia than have come here,” Cummins said. “The opportunities are simply not here.” And Cummins is not talking about people leaving here to go work in Fort MacMurray for a two weeks and returning to their homes in B.C. for two weeks. He’s referring to workers “actually picking up and leaving the province.” We need those high paying jobs so they can maintain the taxes and support health care in B.C.
Health care was another theme of the meeting and the questions from the audience. Not surprising, given that this was an audience that makes use of the health care system. One audience member asked Cummins why health care premiums are rising. Alberta and Ontario don’t pay health care premiums, Cummins pointed out. The thing that bothers him about the premium increase is that a lot of that money goes to administration and not into service. He believes the system should be simplified – and removing premiums would contribute to that – to reduce the cost of administration. “I am quite sympathetic to the notion that we should be paying for that as part of our income tax,” Cummins said.

MIN OF HEALTH
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
In the early morning hours of July 27, 2012, three men, all wellknown to police, were riding together in a car when the driver went through the red light at Jubilee Parkway and the Inland Island Highway. Problem was, the only other vehicle coming their way was a police cruiser, driven by a veteran officer who stopped the car and immediately recognized the occupants. Devin Clark, 31, was behind the wheel, Charles Ryan Lafleur, 29, was a passenger and Lucas Makoseij, 31, was in the back seat “covered in blood.” Clark, who was sweating profusely, had a speck of blood on him while Makoseij said he didn’t know why he was covered in blood. That was enough for the officer to further investigate. He found two bags containing small amounts of cocaine and heroin, and then a loaded handgun under the front seat. The .38 special contained two live rounds and the serial number had been filed off. As a result, all three men were arrested, but

at the RCMP detachment, Lafleur confessed. “I want to tell you something,” Lafleur told the officer guarding his cell. “The guys didn’ t know what I had…they’ re my beef.” Clark and Makoseij were later released from custody while Lafleur was charged with five firearms offences and two more counts for possession of a controlled substance. On Jan. 8, in B.C. Supreme Cour t in Campbell River, Lafleur pleaded guilty to possessing a restricted firearm with ammunition and possessing a firearm contrary to court order. The order stems from a previous conviction for assault causing bodily harm. With the guilty pleas, Lafleur automatically received a three-year jail sentence for breaching the court order. He received another two months for possessing the gun and, earlier in provincial court, he had received a 30-day sentence after being found with drugs in Victoria. “Mr. Lafleur (understood) the minimum three-year sentence right from the beginning,” said defence lawyer Martin Allen.
“From the time of his arrest, he took full responsibility. He needed to do the right thing.” However, Allen took issue with the minimum mandatory sentence of three years. He argued that Lafleur should be given additional credit for pre-trial custody and for entering an early guilty plea, thereby avoiding a costly trial. Allen also noted that Lafleur has been in custody at the Vancouver Island Regional Correctional Centre in Victoria which is “staggering overcrowded.” He suggested that the judge take at least two months off the sentence for time served. However, Justice T. Armstrong said crimes involving guns and drugs are “extremely worrisome” and the minimum sentence of three years “clearly reflects Parliament’s concern.” “This community has a right to be free of this type of activity,” the judge said, who also urged Lafluer to think about his children in future circumstances that could lead to trouble. In addition to the jail time, the judge ordered the forfeiture of the weapon, two cell phones and $235 in cash, also found in the car. Lafleur also received a lifetime firearms ban.
this spring,” Couvrette said. “The frequency of our itinerant service will depend on the number of people who require ceremonies or other services.” However, on the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website, services are only scheduled to come to Nanaimo, which will serve Campbell River, C o u r t e n ay, Q u a l i cum Beach and Port Alberni listed as the areas served. The services listed as coming to Nanaimo are citizenship tests, hearings and ceremonies. Citizenship and Immigration is scheduled to be in Nanaimo in June 2013.
Trevena said making local residents travel to another city takes away from the experience. “T he ceremonies were quite lovely,” she said. “It’s a great setting and there’s a real sense of community – there are representatives from council there – a cake. A real sense of ‘you are here, you are part of the community.’ It will take something away from the ceremony (to have it in Nanaimo). It will make it harder for friends and neighbours to come.” Trevena said immigrants will also be burdened with the cost of transportation and the cost of taking time off work to access ser-
vices. Rachel Blaney, executive director of the Immigrant Welcome Centre, said she has already had at least one client forced to travel out of town. “The client drove to Nanaimo and wrote the exam,” Blaney said. “Following the test she was told that she would receive the results by mail from CIC (Citizenship and Immigration Canada). There was no judge or ceremony, only a promise that a citizenship ceremony will be held at a future date, probably in Vancouver.” Trevena said the loss of local celebrations will “hurt the community” and make the ceremonies “much more isolating for people.”

A s i n g l e - ve h i c l e accident on the Island Highway Monday afternoon caused a fire hydrant to erupt. Staff Sgt. Troy Beauregard of the Campbell River RCMP said an 18-year-old female driver went off the road just north of Engles Road around noon, crashing into a ditch and hitting a fire hydrant. “It appears the driver may have fallen asleep,” Beauregard said. “There were no

Newspaper to blame for residents’ petition, Mayor says KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
City council took some heat for wanting to change the name of Spirit Square – something council never intended to do, says Mayor Walter Jakeway. A g roup of concerned residents presented council with a petition signed by 50 people asking council to reconsider renaming Spirit Square. But Jakeway said council has never had
any plans to rename the downtown meeting place, which hosts several outdoor concerts and community events throughout the year. “We’ve been presented with a petition in reference to a motion I made in November,” Jakeway said at last week’s Tuesday council meeting. “The motion was to re-name 11th Avenue from Cedar Street to the cenotaph to Veteran’s Way to honour our vets.”
Jakeway said the confusion was related to an editorial published in the Courier Islander after Jakeway put forward his motion, which was approved by council and is currently being worked on by city staff. “In one of our local papers the person writing the paper e x t r ap o l at e d t h at idea to include Spirit Square and I believe this petition is in response to that article in the paper,” Jakeway

Square’s name will remain the same. “I brought it up for clarity,” he said. “I just want to make clear to people who aren’t watching our activities too closely that the motion being worked on by staff only includes re-naming 11th Avenue.” The pending name change was supported by council just after Remembrance Day.

Our View
Need to limit omnibus bills If the federal Conservative government hasn’t already thought about its penchant for omnibus bills in Parliament, it needs to. The Idle No More movement has focused some of its attention on changes to federal legislation like the Navigable Waters We say: They Protection Act and Environmental Assessment Act, which are rolled can do serious into an omnibus bill. These bills, damage to the often part of a budget, give MPs economy little chance to debate important issues because there are so many items jammed together. The Conservatives did not invent this strategy, but they have honed it to a fine art. Omnibus bills began appearing regularly
during the five years the Conservatives governed with a minority, and were often crafted in such a way as to keep at least one opposition party from voting against the government. While this was an understandable legislative strategy, the need for such omnibus bills does not exist when there is a majority government. But the government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper likes the approach, because it limits the usefulness of Parliament and the ability of its critics to draw much public attention. That worked fine when the critics were solely from the opposition parties. But when they are from outside Parliament and are energized by a variety of causes, as is Idle No More, omnibus bills have the potential to do a great deal of harm. The harm
comes from emasculating legitimate opposition in Parliament, where differences within a democracy need to be discussed. If too many people believe Parliament doesn’t work any more, and this leads them to do serious damage to Canada’s economy because of their frustrations, omnibus bills become very dangerous. The Conservative government has nothing to fear from its opponents in Parliament. It has a majority, and it should be ready and willing to hear criticism of its plans within an elected assembly. The prime minister would serve the interests of all Canadians if he pledged to restrict or even eliminate omnibus bills for the remainder of this Parliament’s term. – Black Press

Guide’s rep tarnished Re: ‘High probability’ of disturbing whales in Discovery Passage enough to convict boater I am writing to you regarding your article about Mr. Carl Peterson being fined for harassing killer whales. To say this recent case of whale harassment is disturbing is a total understatement. And when I say disturbing I am not talking about the supposed harassment of the killer whales by Mr. Carl Peterson, but the wrongful prosecution of someone based on loose guidelines at best, inconsistent testimony from the Fisheries Officers involved and input from an expert on Orcas that basically said that whales “may” be disturbed if harassed. What a joke. Mr. Peterson, his father and his father before him, have been guiding the waters of Campbell River for over 70 years and have shown tens of thousands of tourists from around the world the beauty of Discovery Passage and all those marine species that live there. He has been a mariner in Discovery Passage all his life and was a huge part of many salmon enhanceContinued on A9 We welcome your opinions on stories and issues published in our pages as well as issues of broader concern encountered elsewhere.

An inconvenient truth of oil pollution
Tom Fletcher B.C. Views
A study of six northern Alberta lakes conducted by Environment Canada and other scientists was published last week, generating headlines around the world. “Oil sands toxins ‘accumulate in freshwater systems,’” the BBC announced. The headline in The New York Times declared: “Oil sands industry in Canada tied to higher carcinogen level.” The study was reported with similar alarm across Canada. It looked at levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in lakebed sediment, and found levels measurably higher than natural sources since oil sands extraction began 50 years ago. Most news reports I saw made little
or no effort to put this information into context, in terms of the actual risk to humans, fish and other organisms. Some quoted people they knew would scream bloody murder, because as we in the media are taught, conflict and fear attract an audience. As expected, U.S. environmental groups and their Canadian branch offices ramped up the rhetoric to battle their favourite villain. At least one major Canadian newspaper, The Globe and Mail, did a responsible job. Its report on the study stated “PAH pollution level remains low – on par, at worst, with an urban lake – but is rising.” In fact, five of six lakes tested were far below average contamination of
urban lakes. PAH fallout is a daily constant of urban life, from vehicles, industry, and particularly where coal is burned for electricity. To be clear, there are dozens of different forms of PAH. Some have been shown to increase cancer risk, and some have been linked to (but not proven to cause) infertility, immune disorders and fish mutations. So when you drive your kids to school, stand at the bus stop, or drink a glass of water from Coquitlam Lake or any urban reservoir, you are exposed to PAH pollution from human and natural sources. The risk from this is an ongoing focus of research, but this study confirms one thing: your exposure is likely greater
in any urban area than it is downwind of the Alberta oil sands. I argued this point with B.C.’s celebrity environmentalist Tzeporah Berman, who has shuttled back and forth from ForestEthics to Greenpeace in recent years. She took to her Facebook page to publicize a dramatic call to action from 350.org, one of the most strident climate change advocacy groups in the U.S., selectively using a quote and picture from The New York Times. Our debate turned to greenhouse gas emissions. I argued that this PAH study mirrors the true picture of carbon dioxide emissions, which is that nearly 70 per cent of CO2 Continued on A9

Continued from A8 ment projects aimed at bringing Chinook salmon (whale food) back to the area. So let me get this straight – a 40 plus year fishing guide/ expert mariner who has no guests in his boat is going out and harassing whales? I think not. Did Mr. Peterson get close to the whales that happened by his boat that day? Maybe but that is conjecture at best.
Were the whales harassed or injured to the point where they acted other than in their normal dive and surface patterns while travelling? Obviously not. I think Mr. Peterson was simply used as a wrong place, wrong time scapegoat for a couple of overzealous fisheries officers looking to use the new “Species at Risk” legislation in their arsenal. Sad thing is that while many fishing
guides and other tour operators actually do harass whales, Mr. Peterson has now had his good name and reputation dragged through the media and the court of public opinion let alone a criminal conviction for a possible momentary lapse of judgment that could have been easily remedied with a simple warning. Why don’t fisheries officers Askey and Paramio go out and spent some time catch-

Fletcher: Environmental scare industry at it again Continued from A8 from all petroleum comes when you burn the final product in engines and furnaces. In B.C., which doesn’t burn coal for electricity, fully 40 per cent of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are from transporta-
tion. Other sources include home heating and industry. Berman insisted I was wrong, and claimed 70 per cent of Canada’s greenhouse gases come from “heavy industry.” I asked for her source. No response. A 2010 report by a
Royal Society of Canada expert panel calculated that 27 per cent of our country’s fossil fuel emissions come from transportation. Another 16 per cent is from fuels burned for electricity. Five per cent is from oil sands operations. Berman’s
figure is conveniently untrue. Greenpeace and the rest of the environmental scare industry want you to believe that stopping Alberta’s oil sands and pipelines would save the planet. Also wrong. It would drive oil demand from
the U.S., Venezuela’s oil sands and elsewhere, with little net effect on the climate or pollution. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher @blackpress.ca

Environmental committee wants Cohen implemented Filed for publication with the Mirror Prime Minister Stephen Harper: After the expenditure of 26 million of taxpayer dollars, the Cohen Commission recommendations need to be acted upon immediately. We especially refer to recommendations 3, 12 and 13. Cohen Commission Report, Volume 3, pg 12: 3. “The Government of Canada should r e m ove f r o m t h e
Department of Fisheries and Oceans’ mandate the promotion of salmon farming as an industry and farmed salmon as a product.” Cohen Commission Report, Volume 3, pg 19 & 20: 12. “For research p u r p o s e s b e yo n d routine monitoring, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans should require, as a condition of licence, that the operator of a salmon farm provide, on reasonable demand
by DFO, fish samples, including live fish or fresh silvers (recently deceased fish), in a quantity and according to a protocol specified by DFO.” 13. “The De par tment of Fisheries and Oceans should give non-government scientific researchers timely access to primary fish health data collected through DFO’s routine monitoring programs, including data that relate to farmed or wild salmon.”
“Also in relation to DFO’s collection of fish samples from salmon farms, I note that, beyond routine auditing, DFO has not accounted for the need for fish samples for research. This gap became apparent in the testimony of DFO research scientist Dr. Kristina Miller about her difficulty accessing samples of farmed Atlantic salmon to test for a mortality-related signature, or parvovirus (see description
of mortality-related signature in Volume 2, Chapter 4, Declinere l at e d ev i d e n c e ) . The ability of DFO researchers to request and promptly receive fish samples – either live fish or fresh silvers (recently deceased fish) – from salmon far ms is crucial to support a proactive
research agenda that meets DFO’s conservation mandate for wild stocks.” “The privilege of being allowed to conduct a business that poses risk to wild stocks should carry a concomitant requirement to provide access to gover nment scientists for research

Question: I’ve recently been diagnosed
with uncontrolled diabetes and my doctor suggested I see my DR.LATHANGUE dentist. Why?
Answer: Diabetes affects many Canadians each year ~ it can lower your resistance to infection & can slow the healing process. The most common oral health problems associated Dr. Kevin Lathangue with diabetes are tooth decay and periodontal (gum) disease which leads to tooth loss. When diabetes is not controlled properly, high sugar levels in saliva may help bacteria thrive. Plaque that is not removed can eventually harden (calcify) into calculus. When calculus collects above the gumline, it cannot be removed by brushing. This can create conditions that lead to chronic inflammation and infection in the mouth. Periodontal disease often is linked to the control of diabetes. For example, patients with inadequate blood sugar control appear to develop periodontal disease more often and more severely, and they lose more teeth than do people who have good control of their diabetes. Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning once a day between your teeth with floss and seeing your dentist regularly for an exam will help you to maintain your overall health.

Picturing Campbell River businesses
Folk theme Saturday is food and drink Gardeners Green Folk Music Club will be hosting our first folk club of the new year on Saturday at 7 p.m. in Merville. As usual, they will have a theme for the evening, which this month will be food and drink. Those who would like to perform a couple of songs or tunes with direct, or even the most tenuous, connexions to the theme are invited to do so, and all styles and genres of acoustic music are welcome. Or if you’d prefer to just be part of the friendly, informal and appreciative audience, they’d love to have you join us. What could be a better way to spend a dreary January evening than in the entertaining company of good friends and good music? Admission is free, or by donation to the Ursula Joy Trust Fund. Give us a ring at 250337-5337 for location and further details.

Managing Your Money Understand RRSP 4x10carry-forward to pay yourself forward Chris Nagle B.Comm, MBA Division Director
Mortgage Specialist

When retirement time rolls around, your RRSP eligible investments may be a signi¿cant source of your income – and you can make it even more signi¿cant by understanding – and taking full advantage of – its carry-forward potential. Available RRSP contribution room may be carried forward to future years if the deduction is not claimed on the current year’s tax return. Add a few simple strategies and you can ¿ll that carry-forward room in ways that will pay off for you now and later: • Make a contribution now, take part of the deduction now Use a portion your contribution for this tax year to reduce your taxable income to the next marginal tax bracket. • Make a contribution now, take the deduction later Make your maximum contribution to RRSP eligible investments in the current tax year but save the deduction for a later year when you know you’ll be in a higher tax bracket. • Take an RRSP loan to
¿ll your carry-forward room This strategy works when the interest rate is low enough and you repay the loan as quickly as possible, preferably in one year or two at the most. You can use your tax refund to repay part of the INVESTORS GROUP GROUP loan. INVESTORS • Know your agerelated options If you’re turning 71 this year and don’t have a spouse who is younger than 71, this is your last opportunity to make a contribution to your RRSP eligible investments, although any undeducted contributions can be carried-forward until the year of death. If you’re 72, have carry-forward room, and a spouse 71 or younger, you can make a contribution to a spousal RRSP eligible investments with your spouse as the annuitant. • Shelter the noneligible portion of a severance/retiring allowance You can do this by using some or all of the allowance to ¿ll RRSP contribution carry-forward room. • Shelter a commuted pension paid out in cash If you commute your
pension and have received an excess – and taxable – amount in cash, you can use your RRSP carryforward room to shelter at least a portion of the excess. • Decrease withholding tax When an employer makes direct contributions to your RRSP eligible investments, the employer need not apply withholding tax if the employee provides evidence that they have suf¿cient contribution room. The employee’s most recent Notice of Assessment from the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA) is considered suf¿cient evidence of contribution room. Make the most of your RRSP eligible investments and pay yourself forward in the most advantageous ways by talking over your life goals with your professional advisor.

Mervyn Davis
January 12, 1920-December 31, 2012 It is with a sense of sadness tinged with wonder at being part of a life so amazingly well lived that we, the sons and daughters of Mervyn Davis, announce that our dear father quietly left this world on New Years Eve. With typical self-effacement he waited until the last member of his clamorous family had left his bedside before he took the ďŹ nal breath that would forever reunite 1943 him with his beloved wife Joan. Merv was born in Hyderabad, India (now Pakistan) January 12, 1920 to Dr. Leonard Samarasinha and Joyce Hislop an adventuresome and plucky young Scottish gal from Edinburgh. When his father died of typhoid treating an epidemic in Calcutta, Mervyn just a toddler and his mother immigrated to Canada where he was eventually adopted 2008 by Edgar Davis his mother’s new husband. Edgar was a man of great principal and dad greatly loved and admired him. In 1943 his university education at UBC was interrupted when he left for England and joined the RAF. Flying sorties as a Navigator his plane was shot down over Germany and dad’s war was concluded at the notorious Stalag Luft III prisoner of war camp where he was interned for a year and a half. The rest of dad’s life was almost as daunting. He completed as much education at UBC and Queen’s University as he felt necessary for his greater passions and over the next four decades plunged tirelessly into his work in the ďŹ eld of social work and corrections. Most of his professional life was spent as Executive Director of the John Howard Society and later as head of Human Resources Social Services Department under Dave Barrett’s NDP government. Mervyn’s dedication to his committee work was only equaled by his devotion to his rapidly expanding family. Actively involved and instrumental in the creation of Big Brothers, Halfway Houses, Legal Aid, Victims of Violence, Cool Aid, and the Crisis Center amongst others. His children Deborah, Hal, Richmond, Cynthia, Daphne, Bradley, Christopher, and Alisa as well as 19 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren are left to mourn his passing and ready to celebrate his incredible life. A memorial service for friends and family will be held early in the spring and a notice as to date and time will be sent out.

Rosa Maria Specogna
February 1, 1936-January 10, 2013 Maria passed away on Thursday, January, 10th, 2013. She was born in a small community in North Eastern Italy, and from the ages of three to nine she lived through the hardships of the Second World War. Her husband Joe was from the same part of Italy and she married him in 1954. They immigrated to Canada and ended up in the Village of Sayward, British Columbia. Maria enjoyed life in Sayward and she lived there for the rest of her life. During the 1970’s she balanced a busy life of raising two daughters and being employed as a cook at the Sayward hotel while her husband worked in the woods for Macmillan Bloedel. She was a helpful and very generous person that often used her sewing skills to help out her many friends in Sayward, Campbell River and the Comox Valley. She loved to cook food for people and she was known for her pies, butter tarts and sausage rolls. Maria was predeceased by her parents, her brother Luigi and her husband Joe. She is survived by her daughters Mirella Matthews (Pat) and Gloria Moat (Ian) and extended family in Italy. Prayers will be held at 7:00pm, Wednesday, January 16, 2013 with a Funeral Service to follow at 10:00am, Thursday, January17 January 17atatSt. St.Patrick’s Patrick’s Roman Roman Catholic Catholic Church, Church, 34 S.

Experience Greece and Turkey with North Island College this spring Immerse yourself in the culture and mythology of Greece and Turkey with North Island College (NIC) students and instructors in a oneof-a-kind travel opportunity. The In Search of the Trojan War Field School features a May 16 - June 15, 2013 tour abroad. Limited public space is still available. “It is possible, on a trip like this, to lose yourself in time,� said NIC anthropology instructor Jim Anderson, who joins English instructor Anne Cumming and history instructor Dan Hinman-Smith for the trip. “Past participants really transported themselves in time and experienced what it must have been like to be there.� Tour the National Archeological Museum in Athens,
discover Ithaca, wander the Peloponnesian palace remains at Mycenae and Pylos, stay at Helen’s Sparta, rest on the beaches of the island of Lesbos, stand on the plains of Troy itself; and explore the streets, bazaar and mosques of Istanbul. The field school consists of three secondyear courses in Travel Writing (English 216), Travels in Time (History 205), and Third Rock Archeology (Anthropology 293) and includes a series of pre-trip seminars. Throughout the trip, you’ll also discover why the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley wrote “We are all Greeks.� From athletics, biology, philosophy, ethics, politics, and democracy to how we define the nature of good in society, Greek ideas profoundly shape modern traditions
and permeate Western culture. For more information, trip itineraries, and resources attend the free information session at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 17 in Tyee Hall, room 113 at NIC’s Comox Valley campus. You may also review NIC’s In Search of the Trojan War Field School information sheet on the NIC website at www.nic.bc.ca, where you will also find links to Dan HinmanSmith’s detailed field school site and the In Search of the Trojan War Facebook page. Interested participants should apply by completing the online NIC International Study Abroad Application and Self-Assessment and submitting it to the NICI office in Puntledge 108 on the Comox Valley campus.

Fitness and skill propel girls to U16 Island squad PAUL RUDAN
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Just call ‘em the “Three Rink Amigas.” Campbell River’s Lisa Lloyd, 14, her cousin Olivia Knowles, 13, and Maddy Devlin, 14, all worked hard to earn spots on the girls U16 Vancouver Island Team. “I’m excited. It’s going to be a good experience and I’ve never played girls hockey before,” says Knowles. Knowles and Devlin are the only two girls on the Campbell River bantam A Tyees squad while Lloyd plays for the Hurricanes bantam girls team. The trio came together on Jan. 5-6, in Nanaimo, to try out for the Island team. What they demonstrated to the coaches – in addition to their skating, shooting and passing skills – was a very high level of fitness. The trio scored some of the best fitness scores among the 45 girls trying out for the team, with Devlin scoring the highest in the challenging BEEP test. The left winger has the most hockey experience of the trio – 10 years – and for the last three years she’s played on Team Pacific, a spring time team which has travelled to Minnesota, Toronto and Montreal. This year the team will be heading to Chicago and Boston. Knowles is a stalwart defender with good offensive skills. She was among the top players at the tryout camp and chipped in with a beauty goal in one of the scrimmages. Lloyd, a right winger, gives up a couple inches in height to her teammates, but makes up for it with grit and hustle. All three are thrilled to be part of the Island squad which will play other zone teams from Continued on Page 30

around the province at the B.C. Cup, to be held in Duncan, April 4-7. “I know most of my teammates from spring hockey and I’m looking forward to meeting other players,” said Devlin. Hockey is foremost in their hearts, but it’s not the only sports played by these three young ladies. Knowles competes in track and field and also plays basketball and volleyball, Devlin runs cross country, and Lloyd plays basketball, volleyball and soccer. More importantly, they devote as much time to sport as they do to school. All three are straight-A students; Knowles is in Grade 8 at Phoenix School, while Devlin and Lloyd are in Grade 9 at Timberline and Carihi respectively. And just when you thought her young life couldn’t get any busier, Lloyd also volunteers coaching the young girls at the Rod Brind’Amour Arena. “You see more and more girls trying it out. There’s a lot more younger girls liking the sport,” she says. In addition to the trio making the team, both forward Cassidy Bellavance and goalie Jadylin Spooner were named as alternates to the Island squad. Both girls play for the Campbell River Hurricanes.

Campbell River Peewee Hurricanes fell 4-2 on Saturday after noon at Westhills Arena to the Juan de Fuca Grizzlies. The Hur ricanes opened the scoring with a power play goal from Jennifer Hampton at 13 minute mark of the first period. Lauren Martynyk assisted. The Grizzlies countered with a power play goal of their own to tie it up. In the second frame, the Grizzlies added three more goals to stretch their lead to 4-1. In the third period, Hampton picked up her second power play goal. T he unassisted marker came midway through the period, but that proved to be all the scoring for the local girls. The Hurricanes sit with four wins and five losses. Their next game is against the Victoria Ice Hawks on Jan. 20, 1:15 p.m., at Strathcona Gardens.
