Boat: Mayday call responded to by several vessels Continued from Pg. 1

“It’s fortunate no one was injured or killed.”

According to Coast Guard spokesman Dan Bates, they received report at 4:20 a.m. Monday of a fishing boat that had run aground just south of Kelsey Bay in Johnstone Strait.

The 58-foot American vessel Arline was heading south when it ran aground and the two remaining crew members apparently tried to abandon ship. Conditions may have been foggy at the time.

There was also a third crew member, but he got off the boat the previous night in Port Hardy due to illness. Bates said Coast Guard was called

to assist in that incident as well, but would not elaborate on the details.

After the Mayday call went out early Monday, several boats in the immediate area came to assist, followed later by the Coast Guard lifeboat Cape Palmerston out of Campbell River.

The two remaining crew were safely evacuated and the captain was escorted to Campbell River while Coast Guard towed his boat.

Awaiting the captain at the docks in Campbell River were Mounties, Canadian Border Services, Transport Canada, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Police arrested the captain on suspicion of impaired operation of

a motor vessel and dangerous operation of a motor vessel.

The 60-year-old skipper from Washington State was later released from custody and delivered into the hands of Border Services. Transport Canada was there to investigate the grounding while a Fisheries officer inspected the vessel’s hold.

“There was a catch issue,” said Staff Sgt. Beauregard.

The skipper’s name was not released.

BIA gets the big picture

Huge bronze frame erected in foreshore park Paul Rudan

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Picture yourself in the park by the foreshore with green islands, snowcapped peaks, dark-blue ocean and rugged fishing boats as your background.

And now, you even get your own frame.

Thanks to the Downtown BIA, families, friends and visitors can pose in the “white space” of a 9x9-foot picture frame. The large dark

bronze frame – scripted with “Campbell River” – was installed Tuesday afternoon in Robert Ostler Park and was celebrated with the opening pop of sparkling brut.

“This is great, cheers everyone!” said Jan Tees of the Downtown BIA as she raised a toast.

As concrete workers smoothed out the final pour to the cement pad surrounding the frame, Tees finished off her glass and then prepared to spend the night hunkered down by the installation.

“No one is going to spoil this. It’s taken too long to do!” she said, as others teased her about drawing their initials in the fresh concrete.

Tees explained the idea

came from local resident Wendy Baker who saw a similar frame on a trip to Europe. Baker thought it was something the Downtown BIA could add to the community.

That was two years ago.

Since then, Tees has been busy co-ordinating the project.

First, RBC and Royal LePage Advance Realty stepped up and agreed to help sponsor the construction. The city came next, granting permission for the frame and contributing by doing the concrete work and adding benches.

The “shadow box” bronze frame was made

by S out h Har b ou r Marine and then Grant Signs took it to their shop to have it reinforced,

sanded and painted, and then the crane truck brought it the park to be erected.

Other sponsors that contributed to the project included the Royal Court Businesses, the Foreshore building businesses, Granite Works, Upland Ready Mix, Island Fever Travel, Tangles Hair Salon & Day Spa, Olive Me Accessories and Jane Super.

“Talk about community effort!” said a superhappy Tees. “This will be an attraction not only for visitors to our city, but our residents as well.

Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, family and high school reunions are just a few of the special events that could be captured.”

Man caught between mental health and justice systems

Tyler Steinthorson, 23, becomes violent when he’s off his medications Paul Rudan Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Within 48 hours of his release from jail, a young man with a history of mental health issues was in a hospital intensive care unit after drinking several bottles of cough syrup.

Tyler Steinthorson, 23, almost died last Saturday, according to his mother Rhonda Johnson. As of Thursday, he was still under care at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Comox, but Johnson fears it won’t be for long.

“St. Joe’s is notorious for letting him go,” she says.

Johnson advocates for mental health issues in B.C., mostly due to the her son’s experiences caught between two systems which don’t seem to offer the help he needs.

Steinthorson grew up in Campbell River and is a paranoid schizophrenic with drug addiction problems.

Crown prosecutor David Fitzsimmons put it another way earlier this summer when Steinthorson appeared in court on charges of theft, assault with a weapon, assaulting a police officer, resisting arrest and breaching probation.

“The intersection of the justice and mental health systems is not a good place to be,” Fitzsim-

mons said in Campbell River provincial court on July 22.

The charges are nothing new. Since 2010, Steinthorson has been charged several times with violent assaults, theft and breaching court orders.

Every time he’s given a psychiatric evaluation ranging from six to 30 days, and usually, at the end, he’s sent back to jail or, when he’s released, it’s not long before he’s arrested again.

Johnson can no longer take care of him and won’t because she fears for her safety and that of her younger son.

She would like to see Steinthorson receive longer term care, preferably at the Colony Farm forensic psychiatric hospital in Port Coquitlam.

But Colony Farm is just another institution where Steinthorson comes and goes, and his mother wonders where it will end.

“Somebody is going to end up dead if not my son,” she told Judge Brian Saunderson at the same court appearance in July.

Johnson also predicted that her son would be arrested within 2-3 days of his release from custody.

That didn’t quite happen, instead he’s back in hospital.

Tyler Steinthorson opens a gift on one of his good days. The 23-year-old is caught under the “intersection” of the justice and mental health care systems.

in late June, Steinthorson was released from jail on Aug. 29, after being found criminally not responsible on the

charges. But he had nowhere to go, other than a shelter, said Johnson.

Steinthorson is safe for now, said his mother, but when he’s released again he still doesn’t have a home, it’s unlikely he will take his medications, and he’s liable to consume drugs or more cough syrup. Meaning, of course, he will wind up back in some form of custody which he usually spends in segregation due to his violent behaviour.

Johnson has written letters to politicians of all stripes, asking for better care for people with mental health issues, particularly her son. But the help isn’t coming and she wants the public to know her son’s story.

“I’m so exhausted... don’t know what to do now...who to go to...I need to try to rest for a couple of days but I need this story to go to the media asap,” she said. paulr@campbellrivermirror.com

Our View

At the U.S. border, do not ask, do not tell Will the words of Cathy McLeod and Justin Trudeau come back to burn them the next time they try to enter the United States?

Much was made of the federal Liberal leader’s admission that he had smoked We say: Actions pot while serving as an MP — a practise at the border will that remains illegal in Canada and the U.S. Shortly thereafter, during an result in people interview with Black Press, McLeod, the Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo hiding the truth Conservative MP, admitted to smoking marijuana while in university.

On the Labour Day weekend, the omnipotence of

border guards was again on full display as news outlets reported on the experience of Jessica Goldstein, a 30-year-old White Rock student. She managed to get herself banned from Uncle Sam’s land when she replied to a question at the border.

Goldstein was asked: Have you ever smoked marijuana?

She replied she had, just the week before, in fact. She also admitted taking magic mushrooms and ecstasy and now finds herself on the outside looking into the United States.

The question is: Will McLeod, Trudeau, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford and the many other politicians who have admitted smoking a joint be subject to the same

Draconian response from the United States?

Probably not, simply because of who they are and what they do. If you are a simple student going to a concert in the U.S., admitting to smoking a joint can change your life for the worse.

If you are an MP going to a conference in the U.S., sharing an identical admission at the border will result in you getting to that meeting.

Why? Because life is not fair and because not all people are subject to the same punishment when breaking the law. Goldstein’s greatest crime was not smoking pot — it was being foolish enough to admit as much at the border.

Time to call the bluff

So much for the disfunctional family at Campbell River City Hall.

One member of council seems to think a land-swap is on the same level as borrowing $15 million? The prime reason for government existence is to provide basic services, yet locally, there seems to be a focus on soccer fields over providing sewer /water services? IF this borrowing proposal goes to Referendum, we must make sure the $5 million soccer field budget gets the same scrutiny as the sewer upgrades. Again, we might see it get defeated by the taxpayer, despite council’s wishes. It’s time to call the bluff on the other levels of government we are feeding. So the money was ear-marked for a playing field? Spend that money on the sewer upgrades, then get the media cameras in the faces of any regional /federal /provincial bureaucrats stating playing fields are more important than sewer systems.

Governments all over the world are struggling to maintain infrastructure or warm-and-fuzzy projects implemented back in the days when money was free and easy. Our mayor seems to understand this problem. In 14 months, the most logical thing he could do is run a slate of logical people who can make city hall accountable and functional.

No-one can out-yell Logger Mike in traffic gridlock

Conversations with Mike

By Paul Rudan

It was practically gridlock in downtown Campbell River and few were happy.

Twas Friday afternoon, just a few hours before knocking-off time and the unofficial start to the Labour Day weekend.

Long weekends always create panic as fun-seekers load up on weenies, buns, booze and just enough ‘smores supplies to gooey up an entire campsite.

Getting out of “Dodge” on these days requires real focus.

Errand boy, or girl, must compete for the last narrow spaces in the gauntlet of chaotic plaza parking lots. Then there are the painful waits in slow-moving check-out lines. Finally, you try to make it back to home base and that’s where it goes to Fort Mac in a hand basket.

Shopper’s Row jams up with vehicles oozing from every side street and then you have the pedestrians who dawdle in the crosswalks as they giggle at another “lol message” on their crackberries.

Add in the downtown construction that’s closed St. Ann’s Road and there you have it, all the makings for bedlam!

So there I was, stuck in “gridlock” as if I were driving in downtown Vancouver.

Well, it’s never that bad and “real traffic” in Campbell River typically means you get home five minutes later – big deal.

Others though, aren’t so patient.

Take, for instance, the cabbie waiting at the four-way stop at Shopper’s and 11th Avenue. I had arrived at the intersection first, but wasn’t going anywhere because traffic was backed right up to the cross-

walk due to the new four-way stop just up Shopper’s at 10th Ave. As I waited for a pedestrian to first cross and the traffic to clear, the frustrated cabbie tried to drive through first.

Not to be outdone, I proceeded into the intersection with my hand firmly planted on the horn.

It was at the height of craziness when Big Logger Mike suddenly jumped down from his spar pole.

“EVERYBODY STOP!” he bellowed, as his voice bounced off the Strathcona mountains and everyone came to a halt.

“Geez Louise, I’ve had enough of this madness,” he went on. “It’s bad enough I’m smack dab in the middle of this mess, but it’s even worse when guys like you and you [he was pointing at me and

the cabbie] can’t behave decently!”

I looked sheepish while the cabbie looked over his shoulder as if Big Mike was yelling at someone else.

He shook a scolding finger at us, then grabbed an oversized stop sign and started directing traffic like an honestto-goodness cop.

“You proceed, you SLOW DOWN, and you, stop putting on make-up while you’re driving,” Logger Mike ordered.

Suddenly, everything was moving smoothly again, but Big Mike wasn’t finished.

“You, yes YOU, get the heck off that skateboard or yer gettin’ a paddlin’ with this stop sign!” paulr@campbellrivermirror.com

Councillors need to pander less to technology fearmongers Publisher Publisher

In the 80’s, as a soldier, I spent a lot of time in the field, communicating on various types of radios.

Back in the early 90’s I got my first cell phone, as part of my work in the Army.

Had it with me all the time and used it almost every day. In the late 90’s, I was installing and using Wireless routers and wireless computers and was on my 4th cell phone. When I retired from the Army, I started my own IT company and spent a lot of time installing and using a variety of WiFi devices and appliances. By this time, I was on my 7th cell phone. Today, I have several wireless transmitters in my home, several iPhones, iPads and other wireless receiving devices. I use WiFi and cell service virtually everywhere I go.

According to Mrs. Latchford, I should be dead. No one can possibly survive that much EMF. With over 20 years of technology experience and use, I think I can call myself knowledgable about WiFi. I was using wireless services before there was an Internet connection that EMF fear mongers could use to educate themselves on.

I have only one real question for those Google educated “experts”: Do you really understand how much wireless signal and/or radiation is already around you?

Did you use a cordless phone today? Did you walk by a satellite dish or use a microwave oven?

Did you sit in front of a computer to send those e-mails or search the Web? Did you listen to the radio in your car?

Sales SalesRep Rep

Did you stand outside in the sun, today?

If you picked up a phone when you were a teenager, did you know anything about the magnet you were putting next to your ear? Did you cringe every time you had to drive under high tension power lines? Did you ever think of the cosmic radiation we are exposed to every day?

I have read all the reports from organizations like the WHO and it frustrates me that the anti-WiFi crowd cherry picks the information out of these documents.

No words like “inconclusive” and comments such as “To date, no adverse health effects have been established as being caused by mobile

The fact is, the reason that some schools and governments have limited or eliminated WiFi is not because of science.

It’s because of the pressure created by a public being educated by the bits and pieces of data that serves a particular agenda from a particular group. If you were to run a digital spectrum analysis in any community, with or without cell towers and WiFi, you would find all kinds of signals flying around.

Mobile business licences in the works Local businesses can look forward to setting up shop in Campbell River and being able to do business throughout central Vancouver Island, with a one-stop mobile business license program.

At its August 27 meeting, City Council approved in principal a program that would license businesses to operate across 12 central Vancouver Island jurisdictions. Once in place, the new program will set up businesses applying for a local license to purchase an additional permit that allows them to operate in any of the participating communities.

Central Vancouver Island communities within the partnership region that would be covered by one additional $150 business license include: Campbell River, Comox, Courtenay, Cumberland, Duncan, Ladysmith, Lake Cowichan, Nanaimo, North Cowichan, Parksville, Port Alberni and Qualicum Beach. In British Columbia, a business license is

required in the municipality where the business operates. To operate a business across multiple municipalities, a separate license is required for each jurisdiction. A mobile or inter-municipal business license allows businesses, such as contractors, to operate in multiple municipalities and regional districts. Typically, the multi-jurisdiction approach streamlines the licensing process and reduces the cost for business owners.

“The Campbell River Chamber of Commerce and City staff have been working closely and collaboratively to build a more business-friendly environment, and the concept of an inter-community business license program arose as a key initiative to pursue together,” says Ron Neufeld, the City’s deputy city manager and general manager of operations. “This is an opportunity to support our local business community and another way to market Campbell River as a great place to do business.”

The Government of Canada will invest in harbour projects at Campbell River, Gorge Harbour, and Heriot Bay as part of a $7.9 million program of maintenance, repair, construction and dredging projects at small craft harbours across British Columbia.

“Our Government recognizes that small craft harbours play a vital role for the fishing industry and local communities,” said John Duncan, Minister of State, Chief Government Whip and Member of Parliament for Vancouver Island North. “The investment

announced today demonstrates this Government’s commitment to providing safe and functional harbours. It will support local economies, create jobs and benefit commercial fishers and their communities for years to come.”

The major projects announced include: n Maintenance and repair Replacement of existing electrical transformers and receptacle cabinets at Campbell River (Discovery Harbour); and Reconstruction of the launching and loading ramp at Gorge Har-

bour. n Dredging Dredging to modify the harbour entrance at Heriot Bay Harbour.

Fisheries and Oceans Canada undertakes these projects in cooperation with the local harbour authorities that manage and operate facilities for local users. Close cooperation between the Department and harbour authorities allows the federal government to continue to provide an operable system of harbours and facilities throughout Canada in support of the commercial fishing industry.

Drive Smart BC Child Restraint in Taxis I haven’t been a grandpa for long, but little children are suddenly interesting for me again. They seem to catch my attention more easily and this was the case a few days ago while I was driving in Nanaimo. The little boy involved was sitting on his mother’s lap while they rode in the back seat of a taxi.

Down, but not out

2X14

Firefighters and ambulance paramedics attend to a female cyclist who fell while crossing Maple Street in Campbellton on Wednesday morning.

After being checked out, the woman appeared to be okay.

I couldn’t see below his shoulders but he was either unrestrained or worse still, belted into the lap belt with his mother. She was belted in, evidenced by the shoulder belt across her torso.

Why wasn’t he in a seatbelt or child restraint? Even though he is exempted from having to use child restraint or a seatbelt while riding in a taxi it would still be smart to do so.

chev

I contacted the taxi services and asked if they had a child restraint that I could use if I brought a small child along on a taxi ride. No, we don’t provide these was the response, but you are welcome to bring your own. I suspect that the company is concerned, and rightly so, about legal liability if they provided the restraint and something happened because of it.

However I do feel strongly that the parent or caregiver should be prepared to provide their own restraint. If not, then the child should at least be secured with a lap belt. Never, ever, under any circumstances put a child in the seatbelt with you!

Be part of the Rivercity Revival Rivercity Players will be raising the curtain on their new 80-seat venue on Saturday, Sept. 14.

The new venue will be called Rivercity Stage and will be housed in the Michelle Nelson Woodrow Studio at 1080 Hemlock Street.

“Rivercity Revival” is the name of the celebratory event which will mark the finish of the extensive renovations which have been made to bring their old premises up to scratch as a performance venue.

Linda von Zuben, president of Rivercity Players, says “We have had an extremely lucky year.

First of all our landlady, Michelle Nelson

Woodrow, donated the building to us and then with generous grants from the City of Campbell River and Artsvest, together with huge donations of time and labour from members and local craftsmen, we were able to complete the job. “ Un f o r t u n a t e l y, Michelle died as renovations were in progress, so we are calling the building after her to commemorate her marvelous gift.”

Rivercity Revival will be a fun event for everyone. Starting at one o’clock, there will be conducted tours of the new premises led by club members in full costume.

Refreshments will

be available and lots of entertainment for children will be provided – music, face painting, audition tent, fairy tale photo portraits, jugglers – everything to make the opening of the new venue a memorable occasion.

And all of Campbell River is invited to come and share the fun.

“Our membership is very proud of what we have achieved,” says von Zuben. “We are only waiting for the final building inspetion before we have our first show in the renovated theatre, a comedy called Sin, Sex, and the CIA, which is sure to be a Campbell River crowd pleaser.”

Members of Rivercity Players’ building crew put on the finishing touches on the theatre group’s renovated performance studio. To mark the project completion, the group is holding a celebration called Rivercity Revival on Sept. 14 at the facility at 1080 Hemlock Street.

Natasha Farrant

SD72 announces Governor General’s Medallion recipients Carihi Secondary graduate, Talise Lindenbach, and Timberline Secondary graduate, Natasha Farrant are School District 72’s 2013 recipients of the prestigious Governor General’s Medallion.

Each secondary school in the province is given a medallion to annually recognize the graduate who has achieved the highest, combined academic grade point average from their grade 11 and 12 years.

Carihi Secondary’s top academic student, Talise Lindenbach, is heading to the University of Victoria this September where she plans to pursue a Bachelor of Science degree. In addition to being an outstanding academic student, Talise has been actively involved in the Carihi Rotary Interact Club volunteering for the Salvation Army Kettles, the Campbell River Food Bank’s Christmas food drive, Relay for Life, and the Shoreline Beach Clean-Up. She has also generously donated her time with the Campbell River Multicultural Society’s Walk Away From Racism event and annual health fair, as well as been an assistant coach for a house league soccer team in the U12 age division.

Natasha Farrant, Timberline’s top academic student, is currently enrolled at the University of British Columbia where she is also going to be working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. Her dream is to ultimately attend medical school and pursue a career as a pediatrician. During her years at Timberline, Natasha contributed to the community through her involvement with the school’s leadership, International Co-Op, Rotary Interact, and Global Issues clubs.

“We wish Talise and Natasha bright futures and are extremely proud of all they have accomplished,” says Tom Longridge, superintendent for School District 72. “These two outstanding students have greatly contributed to their school and community, as well as shown excellence and dedication in their studies.”

Hair-owing experience

Tammy Yurkiw of T & T Hair Design (right) shaves Linda Penman’s head at the Seniors’ Centre at Radiant Life Church Thursday afternoon. Yurkiw was joined by fellow Seniors’ Society member Sharon Harper who also had her head shaved. Penman came up with the idea as a way to raise awareness of the Seniors’ Centre and to raise money for the senior’s building fund to purchase or lease its own building. The women together raised $1,000.

For the record The Aug. 30 story “Seniors have a home until New Year” contained an error.

The seniors group is able to use the Sportsplex and the Community Centre indefinitely for its activities.

SUCCESS MATTERS!!!

96% Graduate Employment Rate* *2012

Your Career Starts Here “I was very nervous going back to school and wondered if I had what it took to be successful. My amazing instructor saw my strengths and pushed me to achieve beyond my expectations.

They sharpened my soft skills while giving me the hard skills I needed to succeed as a Community Support Worker. Discovery Community College has been my catalyst for success!”

Lisa H., Community Support Worker

“I had gone to another school previously.

What a difference! My education at Discovery was superlative. I had top notch instructors who were committed to my success. At every corner I was empowered to succeed. As a graduate of the Licensed Practical Nursing program I have the confidence and skills needed to be an outstanding nurse.

That’s a good thing, because, I was hired shortly after graduation in my dream job, working as a floor nurse.”

James M., Licensed Practical Nurse

“Discovery Community College changed my life!

After 11 years in a dead end job I knew I needed a change.

I had always enjoyed working with the elderly, so the Health Care Assistant program was a perfect fit. At first I was nervous because I was the oldest person in my class. That did not last long! The program is amazing! Everyone, from my instructors to the Campus Manager, cared about my success, even after I graduated. I was eased into the learning and, before I knew it, I was doing things I had only dreamed of. Discovery gave me the confidence and the skills to succeed. And I have the new job to prove it!“ Betty A., Health Care Assistant

City gets a hand ! d e v Late addition i r r A t with wave of Jus 3x5 building permits Chocolate Orange Port & PROCESS

The City of Campbell River has found help from nearby local governments to ride the rising local building wave.

“With the number of commercial projects occurring in Campbell River, and the interest from the development community to discuss potential plans with City staff, we’ve made temporary arrangements with the Strathcona Regional District and Comox Valley Regional District to help us keep up with rising demand to process building permits,” says Ron Neufeld, the City’s General Manager Operations. In addition to the short-term assistance from the Strathcona Regional District and the Comox Valley Regional District, the city currently is currently working to recruit a building inspector.

Neufeld emphasizes that streamlining the process for permits is in place for all applicants, but efficiency depends on builders and developers having the required details available to process applications.

“Larger building projects often rely on a certified registered professional to sign off on aspects of the job, which often helps these projects run more smoothly,” Neufeld explains. “Once all the required paperwork is submitted to the City, then the permit process is expedited.”

To support the local building and development sector, the City of Campbell River’s Land Use Department offers a series of regular lunch-

time forums that highlight different aspects of the permitting process and provide an opportunity for industry representatives and City staff to discuss the steps required to keep the permitting system moving forward.

Campbell River’s interaction with property owners and builders and the city’s fees and speedy turnaround time for building permits were recently praised by Building Links, a publication that released second quarter statistics comparing Campbell River and the Comox Valley in July.

Beacon leads to injured man Campbell River Search and Rescue airlifted an injured adventurer from a remote spot on the mainland coast Wednesday evening.

When the call came for assistance from Port McNeill RCMP, three search volunteers, trained in swift-water rescue and advance First Aid, flew 40 minutes by helicopter to the emergency beacon signal.

With darkness setting in, two men in their 40s,

one with a badly sprained ankle, were found along the Wakeman River, located northwest of Kingcome Inlet.

“The two men had been dropped off by helicopter a couple of days earlier some distance upstream with a canoe and supplies,” said search manager Grant Cromer.

“They were skilled canoeists and successfully negotiated a difficult canyon upstream of the accident. They were

well-prepared and experienced in wilderness travel.”

They also took full advantage of their emergency beacon. Cromer said the condition of the injured man would have likely worsened if they had continued on their journey and credited them for using the beacon at the right time.

“The spot beacon coordinates in this case were very accurate and we found them within

200 metres of where the beacon had put them,” he said.

“We encourage all back country users that are on extended remote wilderness trips to carry a locater beacon or satellite phone of some kind.”

The searchers were also on high alert for grizzly bears on the mainland coast, especially this time of year when salmon are spawning in the rivers.

The two men were airlifted to Port McNeill.

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Wanted: A few good volunteer searchers

Campbell River Search and Rescue (SAR) is looking for a few good men and women to join the group.

There’s room for a limited number of applicants this fall. Applicants must be 19 years or older, submit to a criminal and driver’s record check, take a First Aid course, and attend an orientation meeting and personal interview.

Those selected will participate in the Justice Institute of B.C. ground SAR education program which is roughly 80 hours of field and classroom education.

After passing, new members can expect to take part in ground, water and alpine rescues, provide First Aid as well as medical evacuations.

Campbell River has a very busy group and covers a large territory – the whole North Island and the mainland coast.

Application forms can be downloaded from www.crsar.ca or pick one up in person from the Campbell River Volunteer Centre located in the basement at city hall.

Get your applications in well before the Oct. 10 orientation session.

Regional District and Storm Hockey Club finalize contract The Strathcona Regional District and the Campbell River Storm Hockey Club have signed off a new agreement covering the use of the Strathcona Gardens recreation facility by the Storm.

The agreement is the result of a lengthy process of discussion and negotiation which commenced late last year.

The agreement provides the Storm with a combination of exclusive and non-exclusive uses at the Strathcona Gardens and, in particular: n provides for up to 140 games and practices during each regular hockey season; n confers specific advertising and signage

rights for the Storm; n grants exclusive use of dedicated office space for the Storm; n allows for shared use of the Fitness Studio, Pinecrest Room, Dogwood Room, VIP North Room and common areas.

In exchange, the Storm will pay $2,750 per month for its use of the Strathcona Gardens.

“The Regional District is pleased to have been able to accommodate the Storm at the Strathcona Gardens without compromising the needs of other users” said Ted Lewis, Chair of the Regional District Board of Directors. This sentiment was echoed by Andy Adams, Chair of

the Strathcona Gardens Commission, who stated “the agreement recognizes the Storm Hockey Club as the largest single user of the Strathcona Gardens. Campbell River is a ‘Hockey Town’ and this creates an environment for success by the Storm while maintaining public accountability over the next 19 months”.

The Strathcona Regional District is a partnership of four electoral areas and five municipalities providing approximately 43,000 residents with 72 services including parks, liquid and solid waste systems, fire protection, emergency preparedness programs and a full-service sports facility.

Renewed search for a new home

but the SPCA looks forward to its future in Campbell River and is excited about the Scotiabank & BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk on Sept. 8 at Nunn’s Creek Park and other events to support the new centre.

The SPCA in Campbell River's search for a new home continues.

In late July, the B.C. SPCA announced it had found a suitable location and would set up its animal shelter at the cityowned Maritime Heritage Centre.

While the BC SPCA is disappointed by the City of Campbell River’s Aug. 13 decision not to approve the rezoning required for a proposed new SPCA Education & Adoption Centre at the Maritime Heritage Centre, the SPCA remains deeply committed to helping animals in Campbell River and looks forward to partnering with the city in a renewed search for an appropriate space.

Between March and July, the Maritime Centre was the only leasehold space the SPCA was able to identify which met their specific requirements. To assist them opening as soon as possible, they are hoping that the community will come forward if they are aware of any leasehold space that meets the following requirements: • 1600-2100 square feet at $ 7 - 15 dollars/ sq ft • Water, sewer and natural gas in the leasehold property itself • Zoned for kennelling • Access near to park or walkway to walk dogs • Good parking • Access to public transit The rezoning decision will unfortunately delay the opening of a new centre as they seek appropriate leasehold space,

Centre because it fit the animal society’s needs.

“In our search between March and July, 2013, the Maritime Centre was the only leasehold space the SPCA was able to identify which met our specific requirements,” according to the BC SPCA. Suggestions have already been making the rounds on the Campbell River SPCA’s Facebook page.

One day later, the city said it had never been approached by the SPCA to use its facility and further, the zoning of the site did not allow for the SPCA’s intended use.

Possible options floated include the former Lite Shop on 13th Avenue, Campbell River Common, Sunrise Plaza in Willow Point as well as the former Canada Trust building in Merecroft Village, though the former bank site was ruled out as the rent is out of the SPCA’s price range.

So, on Aug. 13, council did not approve the SPCA’s relocation to the Maritime Heritage Centre which now has prompted the SPCA to start over.

The SPCA's great support in the community will ensure that a new home will be found. With dedicated friends like Tom Burton, a former volunteer dog walker, and corporate support in the community from companies like Save-OnFoods,the SPCA can't help but be successful.

The SPCA’s decision to look elsewhere was also a blow to the Maritime Heritage Society which lobbied council to agree to have the SPCA as a tenant.

M.J. (Marv) Everett, president of the Maritime Heritage Society, wrote a letter to council stressing the importance of finding a long-term renter.

Burton organized a fundraising program with the help of Save-On-Foods.

“It is essential to the on-going operation of the MHS and the on-going fulfilment of our operating mandate that we find a secure and reliable tenant for the vacant MHC space,” said Everett who claimed council has had “continued indifference and apathy to our numerous pleas over the past several years for a fair, non-oppressive contract.”

Everett also said that if a re-zoning was necessary to accommodate the SPCA, the Maritime Heritage Society was prepared to do whatever it took to make the zoning changes happen.

Meanwhile, the BC SPCA said it chose the Maritime Heritage

“Save-On-Foods jumped on the bandwagon immediately,” Burton said. “Save-On-Foods got back to me in three days.

They’re terrific, absolutely terrific.”

What the store is doing to help is allowing customers who are a part of the Save-On More rewards program to redeem their points in 1,000 point increments towards the SPCA’s building fund.

Burton said Save-On-Foods will continue with the fundraising program as long as there’s activity in the account.

It's that kind of support that is the SPCA's strength in the community.

A message from your local SPCA I would like to thank our donors, supporters, volunteers and especially the staff of the Campbell Branch for their support, caring, and devotion to “speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves”. With all of your help, we have been able to provide the highest quality of animal care to the animals in Campbell River and surrounding communities. Throughout the years a lot of relationships have developed, with businesses, veterinarians, but especially my team, I am proud to have been part of the BC SPCA for 27 years and to have been able to work with you, and for the animals.

I would like to ask our donors and supporters to continue to support the BC SPCA ,now as we continue with our transition period, and to promise you that the Cruelty Investigation Department will still be available to address any concerns pertaining to the care of animals in their homes.

Together and as a Team we DID make a difference in animals lives.

Without all of your help, we would not have been able to do so.

Fish’n Canada bears down on Campbell River AlistAir tAylor

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

I

t’s no surprise that the pink salmon in the Campbell River were the stars when the hosts of The Fish’n Canada Show came to town last week.

But a special guest crashed the show and stole some of the limelight while Fish’n Canada hosts Angelo Viola and Pete Bowman were filming in the river.

“We had a mother bear come right out of the forest,” said Jamie Turko, owner of Destiny River Adventures, who invited the hosts of the longest-running fishing show on Canadian television to come to town Aug. 27-30.

It was the first of a number of appearances put in by Campbell River black bears during the show’s filming.

At one point Viola and Bowman watched and filmed a bear snatch a fish out of the river.

“The bears performed for us,” Turko said.

“There was lots of bear action.”

The Fish’n Canada Show appearance in Campbell River came about after Turko pitched an idea to Viola and Bowman last winter. He suggested to

the iconic fishing show producers that they’ve shown lots of fish being caught but would they like to show the ones that got away?

Turko’s Destiny River Adventures is wellknown for its swimming with the salmon excursions in which people don wet suits, masks and snorkels and float down the river right into schools of salmon heading upriver to spawning beds.

It’s put Campbell River on the map with outdoor adventure travellers, those who might not know the area for its famous salmon fishing.

Destiny River Adventures scored a publicity coup for Campbell River a couple of years ago when they lured Canadian political satirist and T.V. personality Rick Mercer to town do a show.

The Fish’n Canada Show took the bait from Turko as well and agreed to do an episode from Campbell River. Turko worked with Tourism Campbell River and Hello B.C. to secure flights and accommodation at the Best Western Austrian Chalet for the show hosts and two camera men for four nights. When Viola and Bowman said they

wanted to eat seafood when they got here, Turko took them to Quay West Kitchen and Catering who pulled out all the stops and filled them up with West Coast fare all from a reserved window seat overlooking Discovery Passage.

With great fishing on the river, bear sightings, feasting on seafood, seeing Elk Falls and even visiting Haig-Brown House, there was only one more thing that would complete Fish’n Canada’s trip to Campbell River.

Yep, you guessed it, Tyee fishing.

Viola and Bowman

were given the full Tyee Club experience. They were guided by Dave Hadden in his cedarstrip rowboat on the Tyee Pool and when they came ashore, they were fed barbecued salmon. The show also filmed a segment on the history of the Tyee Club and they were able to film three qualifying Tyee landings: a 30.5, 31.5 and a 41-pounder.

“They saw these fish being caught and being weighed and the bell dinging and everything,” Turko said.

All-in-all, it turned out to be a successful visit by the popular show hosts.

“Everything went

so well, except for the weather,” Turko said.

After a month of sunshine, Fish’n Canada’s visit coincided with a return of rain. But despite that, the visit

couldn’t have gone better. Turko said the hosts were amazed that all of this great fishing and these experiences were available right in the middle of town.

“They were blown away,” he said. “This is all going to be on national television.

“It’s going to promote this area and it’s going to make it look like a wildlife preserve or Mecca. They were really impressed.”

And that’s what Turko was hoping for. Born and raised in Campbell River, Turko wants to promote the city as much as possible. Sure, he says, it benefits his business but the exposure also benefits Campbell River.

“It’s not just about me, it’s about Campbell River and trying to keep

the people here and sharing what we have to offer,” Turko said.

He was able to pull the visit off with the help of other local businesses, particularly the Best Western Austrian Chalet, Quay West Kitchen, Ryan’s Pizza, Dave Hadden and the Tyee Club, Tourism Campbell River, Hello B.C., and Coastal Wilderness Adventure who provided the licensed fishing guide.

Fish’n Canada is broadcast in 12 countries and in six languages. In Canada it is shown on Sportsnet on Saturday mornings.

Turko said the Campbell River segment will be shown before Christmas in a date to be determined and will be re-broadcast four times in 2014.
