district formed to tackle sewer, water issues in area. By Jenn M c garrigle ThE NEwS BULLETiN
The District of Lantzville is 10 years old and the milestone will be celebrated with an open house on Tuesday (June 25). Traditionally a coal mining area, Lantzville was part of the Regional District of Nanaimo, with its own director on the RDN board, until 2003, when the community decided to incorporate, with six councillors and a mayor as the governing body. Mayor Jack de Jong, who has lived in the community for 20 years, said residents felt at the time that there were some issues that could be addressed better as an incorporated community, such as access to sewer
systems and water. The district is not completely autonomous; due to the community’s small size, the RDN still handles bylaw enforcement and building inspections and permits, he added. The population of Lantzville is about 3,650 and includes about 1,550 homes. De Jong describes the district as a bedroom community for Nanaimo, with a large number of working professionals living there and 98 per cent of the tax base coming from residential. He said over the past decade, the population has remained relatively stable, with the population actually decreasing about two per cent between 2005 and 2010. Some key accomplishments from de Jong’s perspective over the past decade include adding a sewer system about five years ago for 550 residences in lower Lantzville – prior to that, everybody
in that high-density area was on septic systems – and adding trails, the most significant of which is the trail along the E&N railway track, completed in 2011. “Our biggest challenge was to find water,” he said. Nanaimo city council decided Monday to proceed with finalizing a water supply agreement with the district. “It allows us to provide some relief, we have some hardship cases,” said de Jong. “This allows us to move forward.” Of the city’s 1,500 homes, 900 are on the community’s water system, which is at capacity, while the remaining homes are on private wells. Other accomplishments include the establishment of a farmers’ market in the community last year – de Jong joked that if it grows much more, the district will have to find a bigger venue. u See ‘LANTZVILLE’ /4
Delegation hopes economic opportunities take flight with WestJet service to Calgary By ToBy gorMan ThE NEwS BULLETiN
New economic opportunities for Nanaimo will officially take flight Monday (June 24) as WestJet begins regional direct flight service to Calgary from Nanaimo Airport. On board the inaugural flight – after a brief ceremony at Nanaimo Airport – will be Nanaimo Mayor John Ruttan and a delegation of mid-Island dignitaries, travelling to Calgary to use the occasion as an opportunity to pitch Nanaimo to the Alberta business community and enhance interprovincial economic development. Ruttan will be accompanied by several
Island representatives, though the number was reduced from the original 30 delegates due to severe flooding in Calgary’s downtown core, which has closed many of the areas the group intended to visit. Southern Alberta was struck with heavy flooding due to torrential rains late this week. At least 12 communities have declared a state of emergency as rivers flood their banks. The mission is expected to continue in a reduced capacity in a bid to support WestJet and forge new economic opportunities. “We feel, with reason, that there is a fairly strong interest in Alberta but specifically in Calgary for the business community there in looking at Nanaimo,”
said Ruttan. “There are already a number of investments that are Calgarybased in the Nanaimo area but there are also more and more people who want to live on central Vancouver Island and commute to the oil sands ... all in all it’s a great opportunity.” The cost to send each delegate for the two-day trip – Team Nanaimo is expected back on June 26 – is about $1,200, which includes $440 for the return flight and $438 for two nights at Calgary’s Delta Bow Valley Hotel. Sasha Angus, CEO of NEDC, said despite the challenges posed by the flooding, there remains a great interest on both sides to pursue business interests.
“A lot of our meetings were with Calgary Stampede, Calgary Tourism. Stampede is the week after so a lot of those guys are going to have their hands full,” said Angus. “Despite that, since this service has been announced I can’t even count the number of local companies that have approached us and mentioned how much business they do in Calgary and how much this will benefit them.” WestJet announced its new NanaimoCalgary service in February. Initially, the air carrier will operate one flight a day from each city, leaving Calgary at 11 a.m. (MST) and arriving in Nanaimo at 11:43 a.m. (PST) before departing again for Calgary at 12:30 p.m. (PST). u See ‘YCD’ /4

Motoring mishap
Nanaimo Fire Rescue members Colin Dickie, left, and Dan Newstone collect the keys from a Toyota Matrix Thursday around noon near the parking lot of Hammond Bay Elementary School. Nanaimo Fire Rescue and RCMP were called to assist a driver who, while attempting to park her vehicle, accidentally accelerated over a berm, dropping about seven metres down a steep, wooded embankment before coming to a stop. The driver was uninjured in the mishap. No charges are anticipated.
Charity work nets national award
I
KENNEDy BaKER earns money for 7-10 Club program. By Jenn M c GarriGle The News BulleTiN
A Nanaimo student can add winning a national award and being featured in a popular magazine to her list of accomplishments. Dover Bay Secondary School senior Kennedy Baker recently learned that she won a Me to We award in the community category for her volunteer work in Nanaimo. The Me to We Awards, sponsored by Canadian Living and AOL/Huffington Post Impact Canada, shine the spotlight on Canadians making a difference in local communities and abroad. Baker was nominated for her work with the 7-10 Club, where she volunteers two or three times a week, and for starting her own non-profit group last fall called STAND (Strength,
Togetherness, Action, NonJudgmental and Determination). The group held a food drive in October that provided 60 families with bags of non-perishable goods, hosted a benefit concert in February that raised $1,600 and handed out food and hot beverages to the homeless and less fortunate in Maffeo Sutton Park in April, feeding more than 150 people. Besides national recognition, winning the Me to We award means Baker will be featured in the October Canadian Living issue and she gets $5,000 to donate to her charity of choice, which is going to the 7-10 Club. Upon learning she was a finalist for the award, Baker never thought she would win because she was up against older women from larger cities and the winner was determined through online voting. “It’s amazing,” she said. “I’ve been recognized in Nanaimo, but to be recognized on a bigger scale is cool. I think it will contribute to what I’m trying to do with STAND, get the word

out about things I care about like mental health and poverty issues.” Gord Fuller, 7-10 Club chairman, said the money represents about half the organization’s monthly budget and is welcome at this time of year, when donations are typically down. “It’s a considerable amount of money for our budget,” he said. “It’s definitely a huge help.” Fuller said Baker, who is now on the club’s board of directors, is having a huge impact on the community through her volunteerism and she is doing it for the right reasons – because she can, not for what she might get out of it. “She’s doing it because she truly cares,” he said. “And when you see that in someone so young, you know they’re going to go far. It gives one hope for the future.” For more information on Baker and STAND, please go to http://kennedycbaker.word press.com.
More than 280 women who claim they were harassed or discriminated against during their tenure with the RCMP have come forward to join a class action lawsuit filed against the RCMP by a former Nanaimo Mountie. Janet Merlo, who served as an RCMP constable in Nanaimo from September 1991 to March 2010, filed the suit in B.C. Supreme Court in March 2012. Merlo, the plaintiff acting on behalf of female RCMP members in the proposed class action, alleges she and fellow female members, civilian members and public service employees of the RCMP were subject to genderbased discrimination, bullying and harassment. The claim, describing numerous incidents of sexist comments, sexual pranks and derogatory remarks, also alleges the RCMP failed to ensure women in the force could work in an environment free of harassment. Earlier this month, a case manager with Klein Lyons, one of two firms representing Merlo, filed an

affidavit in B.C. Supreme Court stating that Klein Lyons and cocounsel, Watkins Law of Thunder Bay, Ont., had so far been contacted by 282 women from across the country who claim they were harassed or discriminated against during their time with the RCMP and 100 of those women are current members, civilian members or public service employees with the RCMP. Jason Murray, a lawyer with Klein Lyons, said these are women who have reached out after hearing about the suit by word-of-mouth or through the media. “We get calls every week,” he said. Murray said lawyers were in court earlier this month to seek direction from the case management judge as to how to proceed with the case. He said the firm has applied to have the case certified as a class action and the federal government has applied to have parts of Merlo’s claim dismissed and now both parties are awaiting directions from the judge as to which application goes first.

chosen out of more than 30 by WestJet for the launch of its new regional service. Fort St. John will now be connected to Vancouver and Calgary by Encore. M i k e H o o p e r, Nanaimo Airpor t CEO, said the airport has been enjoying record years for passenger numbers and the additional service will only serve to boost those numbers. “As we go forward and have more services available through Air Canada Express and WestJet Encore we’ll see the ability of the airport to offer the appropriate services to the community,” said Hooper.
“We already have an excellent skybridge to YVR, a key hub, through our current carriers and this new service will open up another hub in Calgary so people have a growing list of options to go further in Canada or to head south.” Monday’s itinerary at YCD includes a reception prior to the flight. Once in Calgary, Team Nanaimo will host an evening reception with a West-Coast theme. On Tuesday, delegates will meet with their Calgarybased counterparts to drum up business interest for the midIsland area before flying home Wednesday. reporter2@nanaimobulletin.com

Man suffers minor injuries after oxygen tank ignites By Chris Bush The News BulleTiN
Firefighters raced to an apartment complex in Nanaimo’s hospital district Thursday after an emergency call came in reporting a tenant’s oxygen
tank had exploded. The incident happened at Waverley Manor on the 1600 block of Boundary Crescent, shortly before 9 a.m. when a passerby saw a bright flash and pulled the building’s fire alarm. Firefighters arrived to find
the building’s residents in full evacuation, but no fire and no damage to the building. “It turned out the oxygen tank hadn’t exploded,” said Karen Lindsay, Nanaimo Emergency Services coordinator. The flash witnessed by the
passerby was instead the result of a man’s decision to light up a cigarette while wearing a nasal oxygen cannula, which he had apparently forgotten to remove before lighting up. “Whoever witnessed it
thought it had exploded, but what happens is the oxygen makes the cigarette burn more intensely,” Lindsay said. The victim was taken to hospital with reportedly minor burns to his mouth and nose. photos@nanaimobulletin.com

EDITORIAL
Media display doesn’t cut it
When police and B.C’s anti-gang squad busted two of Greater Victoria’s “top-level” suspected drug traffickers recently, they held a press conference and laid out a large quantity of drugs and paraphernalia for photographers and news media to record. Police were proud to display their bounty, saying it “dismantled (the suspect’s) ability to make money and create crime.” But much like a fishing expedition, the suspects were caught and released back to society. The reason, police say, is to allow investigators time to establish a maximum number of criminal charges. Police further stated they are “concerned” that both ammunition and gun holsters were found, but no weapons. Can we surmise from this then, that these two “highest priority targets on Vancouver Island,” who supposedly operated their grow-op/drug storage operations in heavily populated neighbourhoods filled with families and children, are now out and about with weapons? Police admit the two suspects have a history of violent crime, drug trafficking and connections to organized drug crime in the Lower Mainland. How can the public have any confidence in our justice system if suspected criminals are allowed to walk away – even if only temporarily and under a close watch? The police may have made a dent in their operations, but there is no doubt these two highly-organized, apparently successful drug dealers will be able to pick up where they left off with the help of lesser-known and less-watched associates. The arrest of suspects at that level needs to be more than simply a photo-op for police. The public deserves to know that along with taking the drugs off the street, the people behind the drugs are off the street as well.

A satisfying part of my job was building relationships with the people on my beats. Knowing that Clippers coach Bill Bestwick, Mayor Gary Korpan, RCMP Insp.

Not all the stories about them, or the people working under them, were flattering, but we had, I believe, a mutual respect. But the brightest spot in my career has to be my co-workers.

Tories’ relief evident That sound of escaping air emanating from back East on June 18 was unmistakably the collective sigh from about 164 MPs and 60 Senators who make up the Conservative caucus. All are delighted to flee the constant grilling from the Opposition during Parliament’s question period, and from those in the national media. Instead, the 224 torrid Tories are insanely happy to face the constant grilling on the rubber chicken circuit at their summer fundraising barbecues. The seamy, sordid Senate scandal leaves many Canadians with a nasty taste in their mouths over how the nation’s business is carried out. During the past few weeks there have been many lows in Ottawa, with revelations that only got worse on a daily basis. The lowest low came on May 21 when just prior to jetting off for somewhat meaningless junkets to Peru and Colombia, the Prime Minister invited the media to the opening of a special Tory caucus meeting to hear his statement concerning the abrupt resignation of his chief-of-staff. It turned out to be a pathetic nonstatement, so media members attempted to do their job of questioning the PM, and obtain answers for a bewildered populace. Totally ignoring the cogent questioners, the PM sat tightlipped and members
of his caucus turned toward the media assembled at the back of the room, and clapped ever so loudly in unison to drown out any more questions. Would these Conservatives ever again be respected as representatives of the people of Canada, or simply as knuckle-draggingforelock-tuggingtoadies for the PM ? I seldom quote catholic priests, but make the exception with Erasmus of Rotterdam who about 600 years ago said, “In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.”
Bernie Smith Parksville
A 5-4 council vote far from mandate To the Editor,
Re: Mayor, councillors disregard viable offer, Letters, June 15 I couldn’t agree more with Ilan Goldenblatt. Why on earth would our divided 5-4 council choose to ignore CANbuild Solutions’s reasonable offer? They didn’t even discuss it. It ticks all the boxes – the water level is reduced during winter and extreme weather events reducing the risk, and the removal and replacement of the dams is ensured without cost overruns or contingency risks to the taxpayer. It’s a no-brainer. I also found Goldenblatt’s description of our elected council’s demeanor during the meeting as “condescending, patronizing and paternal” tactful. If council, with all
the facts in front of them, is still so divided on this, then we need to go back to the drawing board. A 5-4 vote is not a mandate to proceed.
Sue Oakley Nanaimo
Force the answer when sense fails To the Editor,
Re: Rebuild trust, then deal with dams, Opinion, June 18. It is amazing how Toby Gorman can see the true story of the Colliery Dam Park issue, yet, the mayor and four councillors cannot. I guess they just don’t have ears to hear with, eyes to see with or a heart to care with. When good sense fails, all that is left for the public to do is resort to force. For the 40 or so who still
have the need to talk this out, there are five to 10 of us who have quit talking and are thinking of what action we will be taking. I wonder if council is really going to use an already busy police force to take old ladies, babies and children to jail, or just waste their time giving us fines we will not pay. The public has decided what it wants. Leave the dams alone. The public has decided what they are going to do about it, but I wonder if council has a clear picture of what it is going to do? The politics of this country must change before we no longer have a piece of dirt to stand on.
Agency changes threaten programs To the Editor,
Canadians can point with pride to our great success in saving millions of lives through programs such as the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB and malaria, and the Global Alliance for vaccines and immunizations. These kinds of initiatives are simple, transparent and cost effective, and show that foreign aid can work wonders. But this year we learned that the Conservative government plans to roll the Canadian International Development Agency into the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. This is happening at the same time as the agency’s new emphasis in promoting the development of foreign resources by
Canadian mining companies. These changes increase my worry that CIDA will lose its way. Will we throw away immunization programs to bolster corporate returns? Will maternal and child aid be reduced in the name of CEO bonuses? Are these changes intended to help the world’s poor – or Canadian shareholders? In government there is always room for new approaches and improvement, but through these changes it is imperative that Minister John Baird and Minister Julian Fantino maintain CIDA’s core mandate of poverty reduction and assistance to the world’s poorest.

training key to patient survival By Rachel SteRn The News BulleTiN
St. John Ambulance
is helping community members save lives with medical training. The organization
offers a variety of first aid courses including bystander first aid, medical first respond-
ers training, emergency response and preparedness and more.
TThe Nanaimo & District Hospital
Foundation needs your help to Vpurchase Vital Monitors for the New Emergency Department Expansion. A Vital Signs Monitor is used to Atrack blood pressure, pulse and temperature. Vital Signs Monitor are used on every patient who enters the emergency.

Training and equipment can mean the difference between life and death. During an emergency situation such as a heart attack minutes are crucial for patient survival. Merv Unger, chairman of the St. John Foundation for B.C. and the Yukon, said the first four minutes are the most important to ensure a patient’s survival during a heart attack and after 15 minutes the chance of survival decreases significantly. “If you have the training and a defibrillator on hand the chance of survival is tremendous,” he said. Many facilities such as municipal recreation centres and shopping malls are now purchasing defibrillators, which can cost about $1,500. “One life saved is worth all of it,” said Unger. Companies are using St. John Ambulance to train employees in first aid, including a major grocery store chain – employees

used their training to save a customer who suffered a heart attack and collapsed. “It’s great to hear stories like that,” said Unger, who was recently appointed chairman of the foundation after serving as a director of the foundation and the St. John Ambulance Society for B.C. and Yukon. Nanaimo’s Doug Slowski was also recently elected as a director on the provincial council. Unger joined the organization in 2000 when the Nanaimo branch reached out to news organizations and other community groups to help raise
money for its building. As the new chairman Unger is trying to build partnerships with corporations to purchase equipment for training and for use in the field. In 2012 3,665 students, 20 first responders, 21 youth volunteers and 17 therapy dog handlers were trained at the Nanaimo branch. Members volunteered at 75 community events during the year for a total of 9,500 hours and treated 249 injured patients. For more information, please call 250729-8889.
As proud community supporters, Thrifty Foods would like to recognize the contributions and community support provided by St. John’s Abmulance for the past 100 years and counting.

LOGAN, Earl Oliver Peacefully, on June 17th, 2013 Earl Oliver Logan passed away in the comfort of his own home. Earl Logan was born February 25th 1941 in the city of Lethbridge, Alberta to Ruby and Earl Logan. He was their second child and first born son. Earl Logan was a strongly loved man with, truly, a heart of gold. Many looked up to Earl because of his giving soul, caring heart and eagerness to help anyone who needs it. Anyone that knew Earl would say the same. He loved baseball, golfing, hockey, and a good game of crib but most of all Earl loved his family, friends, and customers. Earl has always been a people person. He would do anything from making someone smile to making a baby laugh. He always made time for the little things like that. Earl left behind a beautiful family who loves and misses him dearly. There will be a service held for Earl Oliver Logan, on June 22nd at Telford's Funeral Home located at 595 Townsite Road. The service will begin at 1:00 pm; doors will be open at 12:00 pm.
