Irvine and fellow fire wrangler Karina Strong made up a fraction of the entertainment on hand at the 50th Anniversary Old-Time Family Picnic Party and BBQ Extraordinaire at the school. Children took part in juggling clinics and potato-sac races, sent friends and teachers plunging into a dunk tank, had their faces painted and feasted on barbecued hot dogs and hamburgers.

This map shows the location of the potential boundary extension. town’s Official Community Plan (OCP) and the property’s zoning designation, Limshue said, before confirming that there is “still a lot more discussion to be had with the community.”

The TimberWest property in question is currently located in CVRD Electoral Areas G and H where it is zoned primarily as F-1 with a northern section zoned A-1.

TimberWest will pay $4,700 in taxes to Area H and an additional $760 in taxes to Area G for 2013, Limshue added.

Beyond a review of the current OCP and zoning revisions, Couverdon and TimberWest will have to abide by a number of other rules moving forward, including new

viewscape protection guidelines and “smart growth practices.”

TimberWest will be forbidden from future harvesting on “key viewscapes” visible from town, Limshue added, including lands adjacent to Stanton Peak.

Couverdon, meanwhile, will have to abide by a smart-growth protocol that will include “well-designed communities promoting mixed land uses — residential, commercial and recreational — which encourage diverse housing opportunities, green infrastructure, and [development that] is respectful to the natural landscape,” Limshue said, adding that Couverdon intends to work “with Ladysmith to further define smart growth prac-

tices.”

Over the course of the next three decades, Couverdon aims to develop “approximately 1,500 units,” Limshue said.

“Ultimately, the number of units and other details of the development would be determined in cooperation with the Town of Ladysmith,” Limshue added.

Ladysmith Mayor Rob Hutchins said the assessment of Couverdon’s application once it’s received has been identified by council as a “strategic priority,” adding that it’s “difficult to say at this time how long the Town’s assessment would take.”

“As we have done with other boundary extension requests, the Town requires that significant work takes place prior to council’s consideration of a formal boundary extension request so that we can determine if this proposal is consistent with the community’s Sustainability Vision and strategic directions,” Hutchins added.

Hutchins envisions a future Couverdon development as one that includes “well-designed compact neighbourhoods [where] residents can choose to live, work, shop and play in close proximity.”

The village-style development is expected to house approximately 2,500 residents according to Couverdon’s projections, Hutchins said, adding that it will take decades to build up.

Hutchins confirmed that Couverdon would cover the cost of connecting Couverdon with Ladysmith’s existing water and sewer infrastructure.

Coffee drinkers helped Tim Hortons in Ladysmith raise money on Camp Day (Wednesday, June 5) to send two local children to summer camp for 10 days in July, at no charge to the family. Ladysmith Tim Hortons owner Dave Milne was impressed with the community support for Camp Day once again this year. “It’s a great event and has a strong following,” he said. “We get such tremendous support from the community. There’s a lady from Campbell River who drives from Campbell River to Victoria every year and stops at each Tim Hortons because her nephew went to camp. It’s a dynamic day right across the country.” Across the country, Camp Day raised a record $11.8 million for the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation — enough to send 16,000 children in Canada and the U.S. to camp. Pictured here are, from left, Shelley Maasanen, Ladysmith Tim Hortons owner Dave Milne, Coun. Duck Paterson and manager Andy Milne.

Ladysmith dancer headed to Canada’s National Ballet School Lindsay Chung

the chronicle

Canada’s National Ball School has been providing elite dance training to students from around the world for more than 50 years, and this summer, Ladysmith’s Meghan Henry will get a chance to learn from some of this country’s top teachers at the school.

Henry, who recently turned 13, will be taking part in a threeweek Canada’s National Ballet School Summer Intensive in Toronto this July.

Henry says this is the second step of the audition process for the National Ballet School’s full-year program. The first step was a workshop and audition in Victoria this past October.

“It was really good because we got to have a feel for what the summer school is going to be like,” said Henry. “A teacher from National Ballet who is going to be teaching at summer school came, and we got to meet her.”

Henry leaves for Toronto June 30, and the program runs from July 2-22. She says she will be dancing five days a week and will spend the weekends doing excursions, such as visiting Niagara Falls.

“I’m really excited because it’s really close,” she said. “I’m excited about the classes we’re going to take and what we’re going to do on the weekends.

I’m going with one of my friends, so we’re always talking about it.”

Henry says the classes will be mainly ballet, including a repertoire and pointe classes, as well as modern and jazz. She doesn’t think there will be a final show, but parents are invited to come watch

I’ve learned to trust myself more.”

Henry feels it takes many long, hard hours and a lot of practice to become a successful dancer.

“It takes passion because you can find pretty feet anywhere in the world, but you can’t always find someone who has passion also,” she added.

Kirkwood Academy owner Carolé Martyn taught Henry at the Frank Jameson Community Centre through Ladysmith Parks, Recreation and Culture when she was “just a tot” and has seen her progress through the years at Kirkwood.

“Meghan always practises her dance by herself, and this extra work and dedication has led to her doing really well on stage and in exams,” she said.

“She has a dancer’s body, and with that, she works hard, is willing to learn and is passionate about dance.

Being accepted to the National Ballet School for the summer is a special honour, and I know Meghan will make the very most of the opportunity.”

Henry’s current teacher, Chantelle Norris, is also very proud of her.

“Meghan is a true joy to teach and a dedicated, quiet-mannered young lady bound for the stage,” she said.

“Born with the rare gift of an all-around physique for classical ballet, Meghan possesses the ability to look like a swan with little exertion. Her legs just go, her body just turns — she looks effortless at times. Meghan’s progress within the studio walls of Kirkwood Academy has been praiseworthy, and we are all very excited for her and this momentous opportunity she has been given.”

The Ukuladies perform at one of last year’s ArtBeat festivities. The Chemainus street festival is back for a second year, starting Friday, June 28.

Hat Night will kick off ArtBeat Nick Bekolay

the chronicle

ArtBeat returns to downtown Chemainus for a second year beginning Friday, June 28.

Friday night festivities debut for summer 2013 with a “Hat Night” where visitors are encouraged to “don their most outlandish headgear,” states an ArtBeat press release.

Hat Night kicks off ArtBeat’s 10-week summer run, returning every Friday night from late June through to the end of August.

ArtBeat’s Phil Mavis said that organizers “were thrilled with the response to last year’s ArtBeat, so we’re just going to tighten up a few things and build on the success of what was a much-talkedabout event that Chemainiacs and visitors seemed to really enjoy.”

One small change for this year’s iteration of ArtBeat includes a later start to Fridaynight entertainment showcases. ArtBeat’s feature entertainment will take to the stage at 8:15 p.m. to allow visitors more time to “check out the artwork, listen to the buskers,

do some shopping and then sit back and relax for a few minutes,” Mavis explained.

Painters, sculptors, potters and photographers who participated in last year’s event were pleased with the public’s response to ArtBeat and many are returning for a second year to take part in a an event that showcases Island talent.

ArtBeat has signed up a talented cast of artists for year two, but they’ve yet to fill their roster.

Local artists are invited to participate for the 2013 season, ArtBeat’s Peggy Grigor said, and anyone interested in signing up should visit www.art beatchemainus.com for more details.

Last year’s ArtBeat “brought the south block of Willow Street to life last summer,” said Mavis. “It was great to see people grooving to the music, dancing in the street and marvelling at all the talents. We know it’s going to be bigger and better in 2013.”

For more information on ArtBeat contact Phil Mavis at 250-246-2434 or Peggy Grigor at 250-416-1411.

LSS valedictorians both eyeing medical careers Nick Bekolay the chronicle

Ladysmith Secondary chose a pair of scientifically minded, engaged students as valedictorians for its graduating class of 2013.

Hahlay Buck and Ben Cawthra were scheduled to deliver a pair of valedictory speeches at Friday’s commencement ceremony and Saturday’s graduation banquet, preparing their presentations by exchanging additions and revisions via email while Cawthra was competing in the BC Provincial High School AA Rugby Championships in Abbotsford.

Buck said their speech would focus on “who we are as a grad class and how we’ve grown more in the past five years than in our seven years in elementary school.”

Buck and Cawthra were surprised by the news of their nomina-

tions — both students received so many nominations that LSS chose to skip a vote — and both admitted to experiencing mild cases of stage fright.

“I was in shock when I first find out,” Cawthra added, “but it was kind of cool.”

Buck, meanwhile, said she considered her nomination to be “an honour.”

“I just hope we don’t mess up,” Cawthra added.

Buck and Cawthra both credited their involvement in studentrun volunteer organizations as the primary reason why they were nominated.

Buck, meanwhile, will relocate to Kelowna to study general sciences at the University of British Columbia’s Okanagan campus. After completing a bachelor of sciences, Buck said she plans to pursue medicine.

Assuming academic inclinations are any indication of future prospects, all signs point to success for both students; Buck’s favourite classes at LSS were chemistry and biology, while Cawthra admitted to fostering a love-hate relationship with physics, crediting his teacher Bob Boyko with keeping things interesting.

Buck summed up her outlook on gaining entrance to the world at large by sharing her earnest enthusiasm regarding university life.

Cities need more support

YOUR WORDS

“I think I’ve learned to be more open through dance.”

Meghan Henry, Page 5

M

unicipal politicians from across the country flooded into Vancouver recently for the Federation of Canadian Municipalities’ convention. And while their backgrounds were diverse, their message was strikingly similar: fix the funding.

It’s not a new complaint. For decades, Canada’s municipalities have been telling Ottawa they need more money if they are to do the things they are increasingly expected to do. The complaints began in the 1990s when the federal government cut funding as it dealt with a ballooning deficit and public debt. As transfer payments to provincial governments shrank, so too did many of the services the federal government traditionally provided (like low-cost housing).

Today, cities are faced with providing services they never did in the past, particularly in the realm of social services, transportation and policing.

They’ve done this because they’ve had little choice.

There is no one left to download the cuts to.

Instead, they must find new revenue from a taxpayer pool that is shallow and offers little flexibility. Deferring expenses is an option, but as roads and bridges deteriorate, it leads to an infrastructure deficit.

That’s left municipalities calling for a change in the way cities are funded.

According to a report released at the convention, municipalities only receive eight cents of every tax dollar raised, despite their expanding responsibilities.

There were promises of new money at the convention, but that’s not enough. What is needed is a change in the way the funding flows.

Enbridge pipeline isn’t dead yet BC Views

O

ne of Premier Christy Clark’s first tasks of the new term will be to resume trade talks with Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Several daunting tasks await. Clark must repair relations with Alberta Premier Alison Redford after B.C.’s theatrics over oil pipelines before the election, and prepare for the results of a federal environmental review of the Enbridge Northern Gateway proposal in the fall.

Some people were surprised May 31 when the B.C. government released its final written submission to the federal environmental review panel on Northern Gateway. It was widely interpreted as B.C.’s outright rejection of the project, but it’s not as simple as that.

Clark and B.C. Environment Minister Terry Lake signalled several times before the election that they were not getting the answers they wanted from Enbridge. But they stuck to

the principle that the hearings must be completed.

The NDP repeated for months that the B.C. Liberal government had forfeited its own review and handed jurisdiction over the environmental assessment to Ottawa. In fact, a pipeline that runs across two provinces is by definition a matter of federal jurisdiction. B.C. could have held its own parallel set of hearings, which was the NDP’s stated preference, but in no circumstance does the province have a veto. And both the B.C. Liberal government and Enbridge were careful to leave the door open for further talks.

A closer reading of their comments shows that the key difference at this stage is one of timing.

“The panel must determine if it is appropriate to grant a certificate for the project as currently proposed on the basis of a promise to do more study and planning after the certificate is granted,” Lake said. “Our government does not believe that a certificate should be granted

We acknowledge the financial support of the Government of Canada, through the Canada Periodical Fund (CPF) for our publishing activities.

aboriginal opposition in B.C., the Enbridge pipeline is unlikely to be imposed, and Conservative cabinet minister James Moore clearly ruled that out. The B.C. government has consistently maintained that the current project does not meet Clark’s oftenrepeated five conditions, including the vaguely defined “fair share” of revenues, and Moore said the federal government agrees with those conditions.

The B.C. government has to face some other uncomfortable realities as well.

If heavy oil pipelines are such a risk, how does B.C. manage the one that has stretched across remote and populated areas for 60 years? Does the government take a stand against new pipelines, and then watch as rail cars full of heavy oil cross those same rivers? No permit is required for that, and in fact there are more hazardous materials than oil moving by rail and road across the province today.

before these important questions are answered.”

According to Enbridge executive Janet Holder, those important questions can’t all be answered until the hearings are over. The company maintains that every river crossing and spill response plan can’t be done in detail during the two-year hearings.

B.C.’s final submission runs to nearly 100 pages.

It goes into detail on the inconsistencies and unanswered questions on such vital topics as whether diluted bitumen can sink in water. In short, the province argues that it can sink if the oil is in fresh water, or if it is exposed to weathering so lighter fractions evaporate, or if it is mixed with sediments that increase its density.

These are pertinent conditions if heavy oil were to leak into a river in springtime, when water runs fast and cold and brown with sediment. Then there are the obstacles presented by responding to a spill in remote wilderness and heavy snow.

Would we stop in Ladysmith with our RV? Probably not.

Your View

Editor: Re: Don Harrison’s letter about an RV park in the June 4, 2013, paper Mr. Don Harrison has quoted some interesting misnomers about RV owners and RV parks.

RV owners and boaters do not necessarily have “deep” pockets. I am happy to say my husband and I are proud owners of an older motorhome, which we saved for; we continue to budget our trips.

As motorhome owners, we do not normally shop in the towns we stay in. Why? Because we usually carry as much food and things as we need. If we shop, we usually stop at big box stores, because they have large parking lots that can accommodate a 34foot motorhome that is hauling our car (Mr. Harrison, you cannot back up a motorhome that is hauling a car) and they have known brands we are used to at the best possible prices — yes, we watch what we spend.

We plan our trips, and we stop at interesting and unusual towns that offer unique shops, interesting sights, restaurants that have local fare, such as seafood/fish since we’re on an island. Yes, Ladysmith has a waterfront; so do most of the towns on Vancouver Island.

After travelling the entire East Coast of the U.S. and Canada last year, we always found some kind of fresh fish/seafood restaurants from clam/shrimp shacks and lobster pounds to more elaborate menus. What does Ladysmith offer that is unusual or different?

We also belong to two RV clubs that offer 10 to 50 per cent off nightly rates at certain RV parks; if not, then we boondock (free) where we can, as we are totally self-contained.

Mr. Harrison, you state that this town has been studied to death; well, I disagree with you.

If there had been some kind of study done on RV parks, you and council would realize that

Duck Paterson sent us this photo of Ladysmith Ambassadors Kristy DeClark, Sydney Jordan and Kira Mauriks, as well as Ladysmith BC Ambassador candidate Kelly Wallace (on the back of the truck) in the Lake Cowichan Days parade. “The girls got an opportunity to have a ride on the Maple Bay Fire Department’s antique Land Rover fire truck,” he said. “The Ambassadors participated in the Lady of the Lake pageant on the Friday night and also were present for the crowning of this year’s Lake Cowichan Ambassador. Kelly, Sydney, Kristy and Kira rode in the parade in a convertible donated by Harmina Richmond from 49th Parallel Grocery.” If you have any photos you’d like to share with us, please send them to editor@ladysmithchronicle.com. in order to sustain this type of business, you’d have to operate it year round to make any kind of profit, unless the owner is in it as a hobby and doesn’t care about profit. There is nothing in this town to stay and do for more than two nights, and if we could find something to do for more than one day, we’d probably camp up closer to Nanaimo and drive back to Ladysmith for the day. Having an RV park doesn’t necessarily mean people would actually stop here, let alone shop here.

Ladysmith did not do any kind of transit study and look what’s happened to the trolley, one big albatross.

We love living here, but would we stop with our RV? Probably not.

Be careful with the new ‘plastic’ money Editor: Be very careful with the new plastic money.

I recently made a deposit at my bank at the bank machine. Two of the $50 plastic bills stuck together without me knowing.

Fortunately, the bank caught my error.

Another time, I counted a pile of plastic bills four times because the bills kept sticking to each other.

Winemakers win medals Lindsay Chung

They’ll need to find more display space on the walls at Art of Brewing and Winemaking after winemakers Art Lindala and Dave Lamontagne won seven medals at the recent WineMaker International Amateur Wine Competition.

Lindala and Lamontagne make their award-winning wines at the Ladysmith onpremise wine- and beer-making shop, owned by Lindala.

Lindala has entered the WineMaker International Amateur Wine Competition every year since 2008 and has brought home medals each year.

This year, Lamontagne won two gold medals and two silvers, and Lindala won three silver medals.

Entering his first WineMaker International Amateur Wine Competition, Lamontagne won gold for a plum wine he made from plums from his own backyard and to which he added strawberries and kiwis. His second gold medal came for an espresso coffee port.

Lamontagne won a silver medal for an apple tatin port and a silver for a strawberry hazelnut port.

Lindala won a silver medal for an urban spiced mead made with honey from Fredrich’s Honey, as well as a silver medal for a Lodi California zinfandel and a silver for a chocolate orange port.

“I’m really pleased with what Dave did,” said Lindala. “It’s the first time he’s entered, and to see him win two golds is fabulous.

Celebrating our maritime heritage

Photos by Lindsay Chung

Boating enthusiasts flocked to the Ladysmith Maritime Society Community Marina for Ladysmith Maritime Heritage Days Friday, June 7 and Saturday, June 8. Some of Saturday’s sights and sounds included, clockwise from top left: Miss Molly saying hello from Pull Toy, an old fire boat owned by Ed Hendee of Victoria; Robert Lawson explaining all the work he’s done on this 32-foot motor cutter that was built for the Canadian Navy in 1945 and is now being used by Yellow Point Lodge owner Richard Hill to take guests on tours; Ingrid James of the Printingdun Beanery cooking oyster burgers during the seafood lunch; Callum Epp-Evans getting a little help from his father Nick to captain the MV Deerleap, a 1929 85-foot Hoffar Beeching owned by Richard and Carolyn Gardner of Port Orchard, Wash.; Walter Adams of Cassidy telling stories about his antique equipment; and the MV Deerleap making an impressive sight at the marina.

The drive to serve you better.

When visiting an auto body shop, you want to feel confident knowing you’ve brought your vehicle to a place you can trust. That’s why every year ICBC independently surveys approximately 60,000 customers who visit ICBC-accredited c.a.r. shop VALET facilities for repairs to find out which shops are delivering customers, like you, with top-quality service and repairs.

This year, 15 top-performing shops in BC earned the AutocheX Award for achieving customer satisfaction scores in the top five percent of auto body shops in North America. These shops provided on-time deliveries, high standards for repairs, and kept customers informed throughout the repair process.

Congratulations to the winner in your area: Little Valley Restorations Ltd.

LSS 49ers captain Cam Hall, seen here in a game earlier this season, earned one of 15 spots on the B.C. Rugby Commissioner’s Honorary All-Star Team.

49ers are seconddivision champs

Nick Bekolay THE CHRONICLE

The 49ers capped off their provincial high school AA Rugby season as second-division champions Saturday, June 1 at Rotary Stadium in Abbotsford.

Ladysmith Secondary School’s boys’ rugby team entered the tournament Wednesday, May 29, as a second-division team following a “Top Eight-Bottom Eight” match versus third-place St. Michaels University School Saturday, May 25.

Ranked 14th going into their St. Michaels matchup, LSS held their rivals, referred to by coach Gord McGeachy as a “longtime AAA provincial powerhouse who switched to AA this year,” to a 14-6 lead in the first half.

Following halftime, though, St. Michaels “started to put it on,” senior 49er Ben Cawthra said, leading to a final score of 42-14.

“In the last 10 minutes, they scored on nearly every run,” Cawthra added. “At that point, we knew we were done and we knew we were going to lose.”

Once they arrived in Abbotsford, though, the tides turned in their favour and LSS parlayed a trio of wins into a Second-Division Championship.

The 49ers squared off first against 11th-ranked GlenlyonNorfolk Wednesday, May 29, earning themselves a “well-earned”

12-5 victory through the efforts of Everrett Beleksy, Mike Needham and Cam Hall.

Game two saw LSS butt heads with Vernon’s seventh-seeded Clarence Fulton School Thursday, May 30.

“In an incredibly physical and tight match the boys dug in defensively and pulled off a 14-10 upset,” McGeachy said, crediting the 49ers’ victory over Clarence Fulton to Jade Cambran’s lone try and a trio of penalty kicks by Hall.

The 49ers wrapped up the tournament Saturday, May 31 in a game versus Vernon Secondary School.

The LSS-VSS matchup began with “a few tense moments at the end of the first half,” McGeachy said, but the 49ers managed to “get back on track early in the second half to secure a 27-17 victory.”

McGeachy credited tries by Cawthra, Hall, Cambran and Antonio Corbin alongside a pair of converts and a penalty kick scored

by Hall with locking up their final victory.

Hall capped off his fifth and final year with the 49ers as captain, earning himself one of 15 spots on the B.C. Rugby Commissioner’s Honorary All-Star Team, Cawthra said.

McGeachy congratulated Hall and his fellow Grade 12 players for having completed “a remarkable five years with the LSS rugby program” and he thanked them for their hard work.

DEATHS

PELTER, Irene Ruth October 13, 1927 - June 3, 2013

Irene remained strong willed to the end, dying with family by her side.

Predeceased by her husband, Lou (1999); grandson, Nathan Pelter (2000), and other family members. Survived and lovingly remembered by sons: Wayne, Lyle; daughter, Diane (Gerald) Burt; grandsons, Casey Pelter, Owen and Colton Burt; sister, Miriam Scott; brother, Don (Irene) Leischner; brother-inlaw, Al Pelter, and numerous nieces and nephews.

Irene was born in Piapot, Sask, moving to Vancouver Island where she met and married her loving husband, Lou in 1948. They raised their family and resided in Cassidy until 1993, when they relocated to Nanaimo. Irene was a wonderful wife, mother, friend and caregiver to all. She created a home where family and friends were always welcome to enjoy a meal, a drink AND conversation. Irene’s positive and upbeat personality reected in her many involvements in the home and community.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Nanaimo Sands Funeral Chapel, 1 Newcastle Avenue, Friday, June 14, 2013 at 2p.m.

The family wish to thank Dr. Forrester and the staff in Cottage #2 Wexford Creek for the care and compassion that was given to Irene.
