Youth will be served

The Young Professionals of Campbell River (YPCR) presented $3,500 to the Rotary Club of Campbell River which helps fund projects like the City of Campbell River’s Splash Park which has been a big success this year. On hand for the presentation at the park were (from left) Ross Milnthorp, city parks, recreation and culture manager, Lorrie Bewza, Rotary, Elise Gregg, Alana Caldwell and Colin Holdener of the YPCR. The money was raised through the YPCR’s annual gala which is coming up this year on Oct. 25 at the Maritime Heritage Centre.

on the SRD’s conduct to date. In present circumstances we are compelled to advise that we do not view the SRD’s conduct and decision to be legally acceptable, or respectful of our people and rights, and we will take action to address these issues.”

Francis said the Klahoose got the impression that its project was being singled out by the regional district since the beginning when the regional district turned down the Klahoose’s offer to hold the public hearing in the applicant’s community. Instead, directors chose to hold the meeting in what some called a “neutral” location – the Gorge Hall.

“The SRD has repeatedly taken procedural steps that reflected a bias against KRLP, and a tendency to favour interests opposed to our application,” Francis writes in a letter to the regional district board.

Regional directors Brenda Leigh (Area D) and Gerald Whalley (Area A) both voted in favour of not holding the public hearing in the Klahoose community after receiving e-mails from people wishing to speak but who felt intimidated to speak out against the project in the applicant’s community.

Francis said that was insulting to the Klahoose and matters were made worse for the First Nation when the regional district removed Cortes director Noba Anderson (who supported the Klahoose) as chair of the hearing to avoid a perception of bias.

“This was remarkable as it shows that the SRD is prepared to publicly question the competence

and objectivity of one of its own representatives,” Francis wrote.

The Klahoose were further disappointed by the board’s decision to not approve the marina project.

Whalley rejected the proposal, saying that he felt it was the boating community that would be most affected by the project and the BC Yacht Club opposed the

project. Director Leigh thought the area should be protected.

While the majority of Cortes Islanders who spoke at the public hearing were in favour of the marina project, Leigh and Whalley did have support for their positions from the BC Yacht Club and some islanders.

Francis said the project would have been a boon to the community.

Taggers leaving their mark

www.CampbellRivermirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Graffiti complaints are on the rise, according to Campbell River RCMP. Over the past few months, taggers have targeted local businesses, schools, the public washrooms at Ken Forde Park, trail signs at both the Myrt Thompson trail and Haig Brown trail, as well as at the Sportsplex, Strathcona Gardens and Centennial Pool.

Insp. Lyle Gelinas said it’s a problem that affects the entire community.

“It’s not out of control (but) graffiti is one of those things when you drive into a community and see it, it’s disturbing,” Gelinas told council Tuesday. “These people who commit these acts like to show off their tags and others will paint over it to out do them.”

Gelinas said the local detachment’s crime analyst has been cataloging the images to compare similarities in the tags.

“Analysis of these incidents revealed several small groups of graffiti offenders were responsible for a vast majority of reported incidents throughout the city,” Gelinas said. “Comparisons between recent incidents with known samples previously left behind helped to connect several established graffiti offenders to multiple recent acts of graffiti.”

G el i nas s ai d one offender, with no known previous ties to Campbell River, had been tagging in several communities on the Island, and

was suspected of having tagged multiple prominent locations in the city with large graffiti script.

Other young offenders over the summer have also since admitted responsibility and have been required to clean up and/or pay for the damage they caused.

Gelinas said there are still several graffiti incidents under investigation by the RCMP and anyone who witnesses these crimes or comes across any graffiti should call the Campbell River RCMP detachment at 250-286-6221 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or text anonymously 274637 (CRIMES).

Police dog Over the last four months, the RCMP’s police dog Rex and his handler, Cst. England assisted in several incidents. These included: a home invasion involving firearms, numerous drug investigations, break and enters, a missing twoyear-old child, suspicious

deaths, weapons/stolen vehicle investigation, several assaults including an assault on a police officer, and an assault with a weapon.

Gelinas said the police dog provides a service that cannot be duplicated by officers.

“Human scent left behind by missing children, subjects with medical issues and criminal suspects is unseen by human eyes and undetectable by any type of machine,” Gelinas said. “Rex is able to do task that may take large groups of people significant time and effort in a more efficient manner.”

Restorative Justice Sixteen offenders went through the restorative justice program over the last quarter, with offenders between the ages of 42-years-old to 13-yearsold.

Offences included ICBC fraud, break and enter, theft under $5,000, assault, mischief under $5,000 and a noise bylaw infraction.

“Agreements with the offenders and the victims consisted of apology letters, volunteer hours and financial reimbursement,” Gelinas said. “The program continues to flourish with the completion of a three-day training course, volunteer training and assisting with RJ’s (Restorative Justice programs) on the reserve.”

Council split over Centennial Park upgrade www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRivermirror.com

Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Imp r ov e m e nt s t o Centennial Park will go ahead despite objections from nearly half of council and from neighbours in the area.

C ouncil approved awarding the project to Milestone Equipment Contracting, though cost estimates came in over budget.

Tot a l c o s t s we re expected to be $572,298 w h i l e c ou n c i l h a s $461,000 set aside for Centennial Park.

Ross Milnthorp, the city’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture, told council at Tuesday’s meeting that city staff can do the project for $451,104 by taking out concrete benches for an amphitheatre, not installing lighting and scrapping a gazebo at the entrance to the park.

Milnthorp said the last two items could still be installed at a later date.

Coun. Larry Samson was in favour of going forward with the reduced scope of work so that the city can take advantage of a $225,000 federal grant that expires if it’s not spent before March 31, 2014.

“It’s a great project for one of our inner city parks,” Samson said.

“This park means a lot to the kids who can’t make it down to the Sportsplex or who can’t make it down to Nunns Creek Park. This is an opportunity to spruce up this park.”

Everyone is invited to:

the people all the time.

You’re always going to get some people who do not agree,” Moglove said. “The consultation process on this particular park, in my view, was extensive.

THEY SAID IT: “i don’t believe what we’re doing meets the neighbourhood’s needs.”

– Mayor Walter Jakeway

But Mayor Walter Jakeway said he’s received feedback from park users that the improvements the city is planning aren’t what they want.

“I’ve had several people from the neighbourhood contact me that don’t agree with what’s being done and I haven’t had anybody who says they agree so I don’t believe what we’re doing meets the neighbourhood’s needs,” Jakeway said.

The city did carry out a consultation period before deciding on the designs. The city hosted two public open houses, and consulted with several park user groups.

The result is designs for a park that will include improvements to the two tennis courts, a multisport court, and basketball hoops. The playground will be replaced with a natural playscape area that will feature a large wooden eagle nest structure, wooden cookie stepping stones, boulders for climbing, a water hand pump, and a cobblestone water channel with movable walls for building dams.

But Coun. Ron Kerr said despite the consul-

tations, he too has been hearing negative feedback.

“I think something got messed up in this whole process and I think the traditional model of going through open houses and getting input from the neighbourhood, broke down somewhere along the line because what I’m hearing from the neighbourhood is this isn’t what they want and to me that is the goal,” Kerr said. “It’s not a community-wide park like the splash park, this is a park for that neighbourhood.”

Coun. Claire Moglove asked Milnthorp just how extensive the consultation process was.

Milthorp replied that the city gathered input through sur veys at city facilities and from neighbourhood kids, stakeholders, child care providers, Success by 6, Grade 6 students from Phoenix middle school, the Rotary Club, the tennis club, and Friends of Centennial Park.

That was good enough for Moglove.

USED CARS TO BE SOLD AT $77.00 AND UP

The number one volume dealer in Campbell River is overstocked again with used car inventory and will be selling used cars and trucks for as low as seventy-seven dollars and up Saturday, September 14, 2013.

Rain or shine.

Steve Somerset, General Sales Manager for Bill Howich Chrysler, announced plans to hold the 23rd Annual used car and truck event with used vehicles starting at seventyseven dollars and up Saturday, September 14, 2013. According to Mr. Somerset, sales from the last few months have resulted in an extra amount of used cars and trucks. “In the last few months we have increased our used inventory at a tremendous rate. Now we need to reduce the number of cars and trucks on our lot. During this seventyseven dollar sale every used car and truck will be sold for hundreds to thousands below the original price.” Mr. Somerset said, “Our customers should find these prices as low as auction prices in many cases.”

This is the 23rd $77 Sale at our dealership and we have

sold over 750 vehicles into the Campbell River North Island region.

Here, every used car and truck is on sale. FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED AND NO BIDDING. It’s the perfect opportunity to get a good quality used product at the lowest price possible, including cars for only seventy-seven dollars. All cars and trucks will be on display at 2777 North Island Highway, Campbell River. At 8:30 a.m. all vehicles will be opened so that buyers may inspect the vehicles for one hour before the sale begins at 9:30 a.m. Whomever is sitting behind the wheel at 9:30 a.m. when the prices are DRASTICALLY REDUCED on the windshield will be given first opportunity to purchase the vehicle at the DRASTICALLY REDUCED price. This innovative approach to selling used vehicles will make it easy and quick for anybody in the market to own a good used car or truck at a very low price with no hassle.

“We have business managers who will help buyers arrange

low-cost financing, as well as bank representatives that will be present. We’ve got over 3 million dollars in used inventory to choose from. Our total inventory will be over 200 used cars and trucks, including our X-lease inventory. We want to remind everybody that this is a one-day sale only! When our inventory has been reduced, we will remove the sale prices and return to normal operations.

“Since we are a local business, we would like to give back to the community,” Mr. Somerset said. “We would rather allow local people to buy these vehicles than wholesale them at an auction.”

Any questions can be directed-to 1-866-787-9514 1-877-280-9555 or 250287-9555. Bill Howich Chrysler opens at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, September 14, 2013, and the sale starts at 9:30 a.m. SHARP! Buyers must be 19 years or older with a valid driver’s license.

Just a reminder that all new cars and trucks will also be on sale for this event with savings up to $11,750 off MSRP on some models!

Our View

Quebec government picks on ‘ethnics’ If you are a minority government with a goal of removing your province from the country, and you want to avoid talking about your bad economic record — well, it must be time to pick on “the ethnics.”

It’s hard to come to any other conclusion about the motivation behind We say: Voters the xenophobic Charter of Quebec Values, unveiled on Tuesday by the will hopefully minority Parti Quebecois government see the political in Quebec. The term “the ethnics” was used by former PQ premier Jacques trickery at play Parizeau, when the province came very close to approving separation in 1995. A 50.6 per cent margin approved staying in Canada. Parizeau blamed “money and the ethnic vote” for the narrow loss.

His successors haven’t forgotten. The Quebec charter is a thinly-disguised attack on non-Caucasian, non“pure laine” Quebecois. These include those not from a Catholic background, those with a different skin colour, those who practise a religion other than Christianity (with a special aim at Jews and Muslims) and those who somehow look different, such as wearing a head covering or a symbol of their religion. Ever since news of such a charter was leaked, likely by the PQ, there has been a lot of reaction. Much of it has come from outside Quebec, which suits the PQ agenda perfectly, as it can then claim that Quebec is “different” from the rest of Canada.

However, it is heartening to see strong reaction from the federal government and the two federal party leaders who represent Quebec seats — Thomas Mulcair of the

NDP and Justin Trudeau of the Liberals. Mulcair, in particular, has something to lose as his large Quebec caucus includes some soft PQ supporters, and his party gained much of the “nationalist” vote in the 2011 federal election, when it won 59 Quebec seats. The Quebec Liberals and the second provincial opposition party, the CAQ, also oppose the charter, as it was detailed on Tuesday. Unfortunately, the CAQ seems likely to support some elements of it, likely trying to appeal to some of the voters the PQ is targeting. Quebeckers should think back to when premier Maurice Duplessis targeted Jehovah’s Witnesses 70 years ago. Most Quebeckers are fairminded people. Hopefully they will see political trickery for what it is, and reject an attack on their neighbours.

Study skills failing I think one of the tragedies of the public school system is they don’t teach study skills to students of all ages.

I struggled through public school and university and it wasn’t 'till I enrolled in graduate school at Western Washington University for an M.Ed in Art Education that I took a course in study skills. Study skills is a simple system of programming the super computer, the human brain. However it does require hard work but, once done, is a very efficient system. You take the text book and condense the chaff down to the seeds. You reread that core information (the seeds) over and over until you have almost 100 per cent retention. Suddenly to my great delight I went from a struggling student to straight As! Another trick to the system is you keep ahead of the teacher. Since you have done your research on the course you already know the days lesson.

Rather than being another drone in the classroom you get the teachers attention. You know all the answers ahead of time.

Years ago I wanted to take a course on the Renaissance in Florence. Rather than listen to a Professor for 3 months and pay a lot of money I went to the UBC books store and Continued on Pg. 9

Curing a community cash crunch

Tom Fletcher B.C. Views

Local politicians from across B.C. are in Vancouver Sept. 16 to 20 to take part in the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention.

There will be trivia reported as news, such as the cost of hotels. Suggestions to license mobility scooters or lower speed limits to 40 km/h, dreamed up in Vancouver Island retirement locales, will be rejected by delegates from the rest of the province.

Serious discussion will revolve around a report by a UBCM executive committee to reshape the financial relationship between the province and local governments. If this proposal gets the support it deserves, Premier Christy Clark’s government will be asked to undo a couple of decades of political meddling in that relationship.

One problem for local governments is that they depend on property tax, a stable source of revenue but one that has no relationship to the property owner’s ability to pay. It tends to load costs onto lower-income groups such as seniors and renters.

Economic growth results mainly in increased corporate and personal income tax revenues as well as sales taxes, which aren’t shared with local governments.

One key proposal is to return to a system of revenue sharing grants introduced by the Social Credit government in the 1980s. They were funded by one point each from personal and corporate income tax and six per cent of sales, fuel and resource tax revenues, thus increasing in years when provincial revenues were strong.

The UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastructure bank, to be distributed by the organization on a more stable basis.

Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the authors of the report, uses a basketball analogy to describe the current system of federal-provincial grants for road and bridge projects. It’s a “jump ball,” where communities have to apply to a fund when it’s offered and then see who gets it.

Even if a community wins the jump ball, they may find themselves with costs inflated by a hot construction market and an arbitrary deadline to get the job done. Then there are new regulations imposed by senior governments. The most dramatic example these days is a 2020 federal deadline for Greater Victo-

ria to construct land-based sewage treatment. Even with federal and provincial cost sharing, this project is going to land heavily on property tax bills, including those of pensioners and poor renters who will have it passed on to them.

Leonard points to another arbitrary system, provincial facilities that pay grants in lieu of property taxes. Saanich is home to the University of Victoria, a community of 25,000 people that needs water and sewer service, as well as police and fire protection. Saanich gets an annual grant in lieu of property taxes of $120,000 for UVic, enough to cover wages and benefits for one cop and maybe some gas money.

His district and others like it have thousands of kilometres of riverfront, with relatively few property owners. Interior communities also want BC Hydro to pay something for power lines, as is now being done with some aboriginal territories.

Local politicians will be expecting a sympathetic ear from the new version of the B.C. Liberal government.

Former Quesnel councillor Coralee Oakes is the new community, sport and cultural development minister, with direct responsibility for local government issues.

The annual springtime concert at the Tidemark was started in 2011, coinciding with the 65th anniversary of Rotary in Campbell River and was billed as a “Gift to the City.” The purpose of the concert was to honour Campbell River’s exceptionally talented young people, along with their teachers and families, by providing a venue for them to showcase their talents to the community. With this donation from Shaw, the event will now be billed as the Rotary Honours Concert Sponsored by Shaw.

College art teachers get chance to strut their stuff Art lovers – mark your calendars for Friday, Sept. 20 at 7:20 p.m. for the grand opening of the North Island College Faculty Exhibition at the Campbell River Art Gallery.

This group exhibition features work created by 10 Fine Arts faculty members from North Island College.

Working in a range of media from painting to video, this exhibition provides the opportunity for these talented artists to exhibit current work and projects never before seen in Campbell River.

Sponsored by CR Fitness, this exhibition will encompass both the Main and Discovery Galleries, allowing space for each artist to exhibit work they are excited about.

The Discovery Gallery will be transformed into a screening room to showcase the video projections of two faculty members.

Other art forms included in the exhibition are: photography, printmaking, painting, sculpture, and ceramics.

As accomplished artists who focus a majority of the academic year on fostering their students’ artwork, the opportunity to exhibit their own creations has sparked creativity and empowered

Council leaves Carbon Trust alone Kristen Douglas

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

City council Tuesday voted to hold off on asking the province to repeal the Pacific Carbon Trust – a provincial emissions reduction program – despite objections from one councillor and the mayor.

Coun. Andy Adams called the program a “tax grab” and had put forward a motion asking council to endorse writing a letter to Premier Christy Clark requesting the immediate repeal of the Carbon Trust. City staff, however, recommended council leave any future decisions up to the province.

Adam said his issue with the Carbon Trust is that only public institu-

tions are having to pay to purchase carbon offsets to counter their greenhouse gas emissions.

“The problem I have with the Pacific Carbon Trust is the inequity in that only public sector institutions are having to contribute to this trust,” Adams said. “As it stands right now, the city of Campbell River is paying $40,000 into a trust and some of the much larger producers of what they’re trying to eliminate are not having to contribute at all.

“So it’s just a public sector grab that is having an adverse effect on the operating budgets of local governments, health care institutions and other public entities,” Adams added.

agreed, saying he doesn’t like the Pacific Carbon Trust or the Carbon Tax which were introduced by the B.C. government in 2008 in an effort to become carbon neutral.

But Amber Zirnhelt, the city’s sustainability manager, said the city is not directly affected by the Carbon Trust because it does not purchase offsets from the program.

Instead, the city allocates equivalent dollars that would go toward purchasing offsets to a Carbon Neutral Reserve fund for Campbell Riverbased greenhouse reduction projects.

Zirnhelt said in a report to council that because the city is not directly involved and because the province is reviewing the program, the city should

wait before making any recommendations to the province regarding the Trust.

The rest of council agreed and voted to hold off on making any recommendations.

Coun. Larry Samson said he thinks the Carbon Trust is a worthwhile program and it is already starting to pay dividends.

He pointed to the 55,000 hectare Darkwoods Carbon Pilot project in the Nelson/Creston area, which is harnessing carbon from the forest to further large-scale conservation in B.C. “While there may have been some hiccups when this program first started, there are success stories,” Samson said. “I think it is a good program and we’re starting to see some divi-

dends. I think we should help the province tweak it to make it work even better.”

This is not the first time the Carbon Trust has been under fire. Former B.C. Auditor General John Doyle released a report this spring claiming the province was not meeting its carbon neutral objectives and that the tens of millions of dollars contributed by local governments, hospitals, and schools to buy the carbon offsets weren’t being properly spent. The province rejected Doyle’s findings, with Environment Minister Terry Lake saying B.C. was the first government in North America to become carbon neutral by 2010 and he stood by the government’s achievements.

Drive Smart BC Stupid in a No Stupid Zone Now and again you hear about something so stupid that you shake your head and wonder what the heck was that driver thinking? Yesterday’s case in point was an older female who stopped in the fast lane on the opposite side of a divided highway to take a picture of a fatal collision. All the traffic behind had to screech to a halt to avoid colliding with her.

2X14

I’m sorry, but this is really a selfish, totally thoughtless act committed by someone who is old enough to know better. It is not an inadvertant mistake that any one of us might make. This is the type of driver who comes to mind when I hear arguments for raising speed limits, backing off on the Immediate Roadside Prohibition and the impoundment of vehicles for driving at exessive speeds.

TYEE CHEV

They deserve to get “spanked” and in some cases spanked hard. They are thinking only of themselves, or not thinking at all. There is no concern shown for anyone else on the highway and you and I are paying for it with our taxes and insurance premiums. We also pay for it with injury and death.

What to do? Ticket them, prohibit them, require taking driver training or reexamine them before they are able to renew their driver’s licence? Instances of thoughtless behaviour are becoming far too commonplace on our highways and we need to foster an attitude of co-operation and respect. Those that don’t or won’t should be invited to become a passenger instead of a driver.

Hydro to release water

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Changes to BC Hydro’s Campbell River hydroelectric operations kick into gear this month and next as part of its new water use plan.

This includes a oneday doubling of the river flow to prepare for the anticipated fall rains and to provide salmon with good accessibility to spawning habitat within the Campbell River, and a new series of fish migration flows down Elk Falls Canyon to facilitate chinook and coho access to spawning habitat up to Elk Falls.

“BC Hydro asks recreation users to please be cautious with the upcoming higher river flows,” said BC Hydro spokesperson Stephen Watson.

Since the 1990s, on Sept. 15, BC Hydro would begin to increase the discharge out of the John Hart Generating Station from about 40 cubic metres per second (m3/s) to about 100 m3/s over a two-week period.

The new licence allows the increase to occur over one day and BC Hydro will move from the current river flow of 37 m3/s to about 80 m3/s on Sept. 22. The river flow will begin to increase that day at 11 p.m. and reach the targeted higher flow by the morning of Sept. 23. The riverbed is fully covered with water at 79 m3/s so this will provide for good chinook spawning.

Pushing out the higher river flows by a week

provides an added period of excellent river accessibility for the pink salmon fishery.

BC Hydro is not yet going to the full 100 m3/s range out of consideration for the dry weather forecast. It is likely the higher river flow will be achieved in October.

The Upper Campbell Reservoir/Buttle Lake is currently at 218.4 metres and is currently forecast to be around 217.6 metres by the end of the month should the weather forecast hold.

BC Hydro will adjust operations as needed by the weather conditions.

“We typically like the reservoir below 218 metres by October,” Watson said.

BC Hydro’s focus this

fall will be on flood risk management and a close watch for any incoming large storm systems.

Beginning each Tuesday and Wednesday, starting Sept. 17 and 18, for nine consecutive weeks ending Nov. 13, BC Hydro will increase the water release down Elk Falls Canyon from 4 m3/s to 7 m3/s. The water increase will happen overnight, and river safety advisory signage will be placed upstream of Elk Falls.

The migration flows down the canyon earlier this year targeted steelhead, and this flow release is targeting spawning salmon to access holding pools and gravel beds below the falls.

‘Community-friendly forestry’ the focus of woodlot foresters Woodlot licensees and owners from around the province will be holding their annual general meeting Sept. 19-22, on Quadra Island and in Campbell River.

The North Island Woodlot Association is host to this three-day meeting where they will showcase “Woodlots – The Island Way - Community Friendly Forestry” through workshops, meetings and fieldtrips on Quadra Island.

Woodlotters include private forest land owners, called woodlot owners and Woodlot Licencees, managers of an alternative tenure to managing Crown forest lands in the province.

Woodlot Licences are B.C.’s smallest Crown tenure managed for timber being anywhere from 400 to 1,200 hectares in size and are often combined with private forest land. The people managing these forest lands are the stewards of the land employing foresters and contractors in their local community to ensure

the forest lands are well managed.

There are 74 woodlot licences and many woodlots on Vancouver Island from Victoria to Port Hardy. Many are close to urban communities, rural subdivisions and sensitive forest areas.

Wolfram Wollenheit professional forester and president of the North Island Woodlot Association says, “The woodlot program connects people and forests. Through woodlots, local communities experience the direct benefits of their adjacent forests.”

Steve Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations will be speaking to

a full house Friday night at April Point Lodge.

“This is a great way for woodlotters to pool their considerable knowledge on responsible forest stewardship. It is encouraging to see local communities embrace this program and subsequently benefit from the jobs it creates,” said Minister Thomson.

O t h e r p r e s e nt e r s include: n Judi Cunningham – UBC Sauder Business School, “Family Forests” n Rick Monchak, – Timberwest, “Woodlot Forestry on a TFL n Bill Markvoort, & Terry Basso, – Probyn Log Group, “Log Markets: Opportunities &

Planning for Future Cycles”.

The FB CWA was founded in 1988. The F B C WA re pre s e nt s 23 woodlot associations, whose membership includes woodlot licensees and small private woodland owners from throughout British Columbia, united in an effort to demonstrate exemplary forest and natural resource management.

The NIWA is a member of the FBCWA and represents 32 woodlot licensees and more than 20 woodlots.

Did You Know...

AWG MANAGEMENT 3X4 In law, the plaintiff (injured party) has an obligation to mitigate his or her losses.

Following a rehabilitation program is very important to your legal case.

This means the plaintiff must take reasonable steps to minimize the losses he or she suffers by following the doctor’s advice regarding treatment and getting back to work as quickly as possible. By following a coordinated rehabilitation program, the client will be able to show the court he or she has made best efforts to improve injuries and function. Rehabilitation programs often involve the input of your family doctor, an occupational therapist or physiotherapist. Your personal injury lawyer must work with your doctor or physiotherapist (as well as other medical treators) to identify a reasonable rehabilitation program for your situation.

On the Wednesday prior to the walk, Campbell River’s Gerry Suffolk had his beard shaved off for the first time in 50 years to help raise money for Parkinson’s research.

Since 1990, the Parkinson SuperWalk has raised more than $22.8 million nationally to fund vital research, education, support services and advocacy to more than 100,000 Canadians living with Parkinson’s disease and their families.

Parkinson’s disease is a neurological disorder that is life threatening. It affects more than 11,000

Beginning Wednesday, Sept. 18, Lucas Stiefvater – owner/operator of Ocean Resort, Vancouver Island’s Wellness Centre and Spa will offer an evening of meditation for men only.

Stiefvater began a regular meditation practice after a visit to India in 2004.

“It wasn’t something I was looking for, but once I discovered meditation I was hooked,” says Stiefvater.

“I now experience an all encompassing sense of wellbeing that has a direct impact on my emotional and physical health, as well as my relationships with people. I am a very content man because of meditation.”

Science supports Stiefvater’s experience. There is significant research that shows individuals who meditate regularly experience improvement in cognitive processing, stress management, energy and libido, beneficial cardiovascular effects and an overall improvement in quality of life.

For five consecutive Wednesdays beginning September 18, Stiefvater will offer a combination of guided and self-directed meditation to support the creation of an ongoing practice, tailored to the unique needs of men.

The one-hour meditation begins at 7 p.m. and will be followed by questions and discussion. No pre-registration is required and you can drop-in for one or all five of the evenings.

Regular Tuesday night drop-in meditation continues as usual. Both evenings are available by donation with all proceeds going to the Food Bank.

For more information call Lucas at 250 792-3165.

Youths train with the best

Campbell River’s Kyle Watson attempts to score as Tyler Miler has other ideas during a youth rugby player clinic at the UVic.

Seven Campbell River youth rugby players had the chance to learn from two of the world’s best rugby 7s players – England’s Ben Gollings, and Fiji’s Waisale Serevi – at a youth clinic last weekend at the University of Victoria held in conjunction with the Victoria International 7s Tournament.

They were put through

their paces with three hours of high-tempo drills that emphasized quick decision making, communication, fitness, and perfecting their technical skills.

“This was a great way to kick-start our season,” says club president Erin Young. “We are very lucky to live and play rugby here on the Island where exposure to high

level coaches and players like these former internationals is possible, though not to be taken for granted.

“The skill level and expectations were high at this event, but the emphasis was on fun, improving skills and giving your best effort, which is how we run our club here in Campbell River.”

This Sunday, sees Junior athletes getting their first taste of competition as they head to Shawnigan Lake School to compete in the Vancouver Island Rugby Union Junior 7s Tournament, where Campbell River has partnered with the Comox Kickers to enter both Junior Men and Junior Women teams. Players ages

7-13 will be training at Southgate Middle School on Sunday and the club welcomes all interested players to join in. That age group will be competing in the Strathcona Investors Group Jamboree in Cumberland on Sept.

Eagles flying again

The Campbell River Eagles football season is underway again with the Junior Bantam playing Courtenay last weekend. Unfortunately, they succumbed to the Courtenay Raider 27-6. The Eagles touchdown was scored by Hayden Robinson and the game feature an Isaac Shillito interception.

Black Creek Community Fair adds some excitement to the silent auction different and more exciting, some of those items, 36 to be exact, can be bought by buying at their Pegboard Surprise, where you are guaranteed to get something worth over $5, but it’s a surprise as to what it is.

Top prizes are gift certificates at Black Creek Farm & Feed and Discovery Foods.

Then to make it even more exciting some of the auction items are not just silent but blind as well.

You won’t know what the other bids are when you place yours. Of course, the top bid wins the item.

SILEnT AuCTIOn COORDInATOR

The Community Fair at the Black Creek Community Centre on this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. is the biggest fundraiser annually for the Black Creek Community Association (BCCA).

The biggest component of the fundraiser is the Silent Auction. But, it’s a Silent Auction that is more than a Silent Auction.

At the time of writing this article, the BCCA has 116 items and counting. To make the Silent Auction a little

Then add a Guessing Game, Mystery Boxes and a Bucket Raffle, and you have more than a Silent Auction.

The Bucket Raffle will be a $1 per ticket to win a night at the Seaview Yurt situated on the ocean, proudly donated by Seaview Farms.

But I’d also like to mention directly some of the Silent Auction items as our donors have been more than generous AND we have some items that are truly unique.

How about a Snow Shoe Tour at Mt Washington, or a crafting weekend at Wyldflower B&B in Qualicum

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Beach, or perhaps a Cord of Firewood from Black Creek Shadow Ranch, or a trip on the MV Uchuck out of Gold River.

Then there’s fuel from Black Creek Country Market, a visit to the Bison Farm, an acoustic guitar from Long & McQuade, a Bikram yoga card….but the list is endless?

Check out www.bccaonline. com for the full list and come to fair this weekend in Black Creek at 2001 Black Creek Road. As parking is limited at the BCCA, park at the Mennonite Church on the highway; follow the signs.

Pole raised in honour of grandmother Local First Nations carver Junior Henderson raised a totem pole in honour of his grandmother Aug. 31.

Raised in honour of Dorothy Drake, the pole is the first of it’s kind and includes some unique features said abalone shells as earrings.

Henderson carved the pole with the help of his cousins and it was raised and unveiled in a Potlatch held in honour of the occasion.

The pole was carved in her likeliness, with her smile, her love of purple and her stance as well.

“She was a beautiful lady that taught many young children so many things,” said Audrey Hunt. “She was a Great Aunty Dorothy too!”

A backyard fire in the 800 block of Kit Crescent (right) remains a mystery.

Fire Chief Ian Baikie said other than the dry conditions, there was no obvious cause for the fire that started in a single cedar tree.

Baikie said no one was injured in the small fire and there was only minimal damage to a nearby fence.

A residential gas line on Ash Street was hit by an excavator on Tuesday morning.

Fire Chief Ian Baikie said the excavator was digging in a homeowner’s yard when the line was hit, which prompted a response from fire crews. No one was injured but Baikie said

Federal gas tax enhancing local environment CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || FRIDAY, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 13, 13, 2013 2013 24 || CAMPBELL

The City of Campbell River recently added two new hybrid vehicles to the city’s fleet.

As well, important remediation work has been performed along the shoreline between the 50th Parallel Marker and Discovery Harbour to repair extensive damage from past storms.

“Providing communities with predictable, long-term funding for their local priorities is at the heart of the federal Gas Tax Fund,” said the John Duncan, Member of Parliament for Vancouver Island North.

“Our government is pleased to invest in infrastructure projects that are important to Canadians, and contribute to a healthier, more sustainable environment.”

One new hybrid vehicle will serve as the Land Use Department’s field vehicle while the other will be put to good use as the Fire Department’s command vehicle. In addition to fulfilling these important roles, these locally-purchased vehicles will reduce

The City of Campbell River has acquired two hybrid vehicles, one of them being this field car to be used by the Land Use Department. The vehicles were acquired with federal Gas Tax funds which were also used to rehabilitate Campbell River shoreline.

greenhouse gas emissions from the city’s fleet and also reduce operating costs.

The purchase of these vehicles was made possible thanks to an $86,000 contribution from the federal Gas Tax Fund transfer.

A further $40,000 contribution from the federal Gas Tax Fund transfer was used to rehabilitate a section of

the city’s shoreline and reduce the possibility of future erosion. The city used gravel and logs that were clogging boat ramps to nourish starved beaches at key locations.

This approach was recommended in the city’s Marine Foreshore Habitat Assessment and Restoration Plan and complies with the federal Fisheries Act and

the City’s Memorandum of Understanding with the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans.

“Projects that protect and promote a sustainable environment enrich our communities,” said Coralee Oakes, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development. “These Gas Tax funds are supporting projects that help Campbell River achieve its

Climate Action Charter goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as well as foster healthy and sustainable surroundings for the enjoyment of all residents.”

“We are pleased to have received funding from the federal Gas Tax Fund for these two projects,” said Campbell River Councillor Larry Samson, who holds the environment portfolio

for City Council. “The purchase of hybrid vehicles will help keep our fleet and emergency equipment up to standard. And the restored, natural shoreline will also help slow erosion, improve foreshore habitat, provide easier public access to the beach, and protect nearby City infrastructure–including roadways, sewer lines and the popular seawalk, from powerful wind and waves.”

“In order to support the range of services delivered by local governments, we need infrastructure programs with broad criteria and local determination,” said Union of BC Municipalities President Mary Sjostrom. “Campbell River’s recent projects are a good demonstration of how the Gas Tax Fund is adaptable to local needs.”

The federal Gas Tax Fund transfer provides long-term funding to municipalities across the country to build and revitalize their local infrastructure. The Government of Canada

has invested over $10 billion to date in municipal infrastructure through this program, and passed legislation to make it a permanent transfer of $2 billion per year.

As part of Economic Action Plan 2013, the Government committed to index the Gas Tax Fund to provide additional funding for communities, starting in 2014. Between 2006 and 2014, British Columbia will receive more than $1.56 billion from the Gas Tax Fund transfer to improve local infrastructure.

The Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) administers the Gas Tax Fund in BC, in collaboration with Canada and British Columbia.

Tidemark Theatre re-opens with a renovated box office and online ticketing system The Tidemark Theatre re-opened on Aug. 27 after the annual summer shutdown, showcasing a renovated Box Office and a brand new ticketing system.

These improvements to the facility are part of the T25 Capital Upgrade Project. The project, which features the modernization of the existing historical Tidemark Theatre with new seating, state-of-the-art computerized lighting, in house projection equipment, monitor system, and an online ticketing system, is funded by the City of Campbell River ($250,000), Island Coast Sustainability Trust ($153,000), Coast Sustainability Trust ($153,000), and the Tidemark Theatre’s own fundraising efforts, which

have raised just over $125,000 since the start of the T25 Capital Campaign in January 2012.

The total budget for the T25 Capital Upgrade Project is estimated to be just over $600,000.

In Janu ar y 2013, the Tidemark Theatre installed a brand new inhouse projection system, featuring a state-of-theart projector and screen.

Over the past month, the Tidemark Theatre’s new ticketing system, Theatre Manager, was installed and the Box Office was completely renovated.

The new ticketing system will help the facility better serve their patrons. Previously, the theatre had a paperbased system for selling tickets.

With the installation of

the new ticketing system, the Tidemark Theatre joins the ranks of the Sid Williams Theatre, The Port Theatre, and the Cowichan Theatre – all of whom have had an online ticketing system for several years now.

Key features of the system include: n Tickets to events can now be purchased online; n Patrons can select their own seats online; n Lost tickets can easily be replaced; n Patrons can have their tickets mailed; n Tidemark Theatre can utilize the technology to ticket events for other local organizations.

Kim Emsle y-L eik, Managing Director of the Tidemark Theatre Society, says, “These upgrades are not only

going to help us streamline and enhance the efficiency of our operations, they are going to have a direct economic impact on the community. Event hosting is a viable economic development activity, and we recognize that.

“Every day we host events at the Tidemark Theatre that have direct economic spinoffs that positively impact the community of Campbell River – we do business with local media outlets, hotels, printers, restaurants, suppliers, numerous contractors, the list goes on and on. The capital upgrades are already generating economic spinoffs as we begin to contract the services of several local companies to help us execute the T25 Capital Upgrade Project.”

“In the coming year the public is going to see lots of change here at the Tidemark Theatre,” says Marlene Wray, President of the Tidemark Theatre Society. “But it’s good change – change that leads to bigger and better things. We are tremendously appreciative of the community support we have received to date for the T25 Capital Upgrade Project.”

Over the next year, the Tidemark Theatre Society will continue to fundraise for the T25 Capital Upgrade Project, and efforts will be focused on the seating project, which will see the replacement of the seats in the auditorium.

Project start date for the seating installation is tentatively proposed to be July 1, 2013.

Haig-Brown fest this month Lecture honours

The popular HaigBrown Festival takes place on Sunday, Sept.

29, from noon to 4 p.m.

The festival is held each year on World River’s Day at the HaigBrown house property at 2250 Campbell River Rd. (on the Gold River Hwy).

“The festival is a great family event with lots to see and do,” says festival organizer Cynthia Bendickson.

“If you’ve never been to the Haig-Brown property, the festival offers a great chance to explore the house and the grounds, and to find out more about some of our local community groups that work to fulfill the Haig-Browns’ legacy.”

The festival explores the themes of fishing, literature and conservation, with the addition of outdoor recreation and safety, and recognition is also given to Ann (Elmore) Haig-Brown who assisted vulnerable women.

Fly tying demos, fly fishing lessons, children’s games and crafts, good food, readings from Haig-Brown writings, great displays and property tours are all part of the festival which also serves to showcase local artistic and musical talent.

Located on the banks of the Campbell River, adjacent to the Kingfisher Creek conservation area and surrounded by woods, the site’s location by the river is a focal point for the celebration.

house on the property will be open and visitors can peruse the study with its treasure trove of classic literature.

The City of Campbell River will again present stewardship awards on stage to individuals, groups or businesses in recognition of their contribution in areas of conservation like habitat awareness, waste

reduction, energy and water conservation, and air quality protection.

Roderick Haig-Brown was a fly fisherman, lay judge, and author, who became famous through his writings, some of which are considered to be classics today.

Haig-Brown was an avid conservationist, and spoke of preserving the natural environ-

ment long before environmentalism became a popular issue.

He is credited with creating a positive impact on the future of Campbell River through his foresight.

Admission is free, and appeals to all ages.

For more information about the festival call the Museum at 250287-3103.

The Campbell River Arts Council, the HaigBrown Institute, the Museum at Campbell River and School District 72 are partnering this year to present the 2013 Haig-Brown Memorial Lecture.

The lecture takes place on Saturday evening, Sept.28, from 6:30-8:30 p.m., at the newly renovated Rivercity Stage Theatre, 1080 Hemlock Street. This year’s lecture, entitled “Land For The People: A New Environmental Language for British Columbia”, will be delivered by noted Canadian author Harold Rhenisch.

Rhenisch wrote ‘Motherstone: British Columbia’s Volcanic Plateau’ and edited ‘Spirit in the Grass’ with the photographer Chris Harris. Along with these two large format environmental photographic books about Central British Columbia, he is the author of ‘Winging Home’, an ecological book about British Columbia birds. Rhenisch has written 25 other books of history, literature and poetry. For 22 months, he has been working on two environmental projects: one about the salmon of the Okanagan and their link to the Manhattan Project, and one about developing new green technologies to harness the power of earth and sun to cap-

ture, store and move energy. His research and photographs for those projects are documented on his blog, www.okanaganokanogan.com From 2007 to 2011 he lived in Campbell River, where he wrote a play about Roderick Haig- Brown, and started the Roderick Haig-Brown Memorial Lectures working with Ken Blackburn of the Arts Council.

T he Hai g - Brow n Me mor i a l L e c tu re Series was created by the Arts Council in 2009. The intention is to honour the legacy of both Roderick HaigBrown and Ann HaigBrown (nee Elmore).

Roderick Haig-Brown (1908-1976) applied his passion equally to fishing, writing, conservation, and public

service and left behind a strong legacy of literary excellence, centered on the rivers of British Columbia. Ann Elmore was a major force for social justice issues in Campbell River, notably around the challenges facing women. The Ann Elmore Transition House is named in her honour. The Haig-Brown Memorial Lectures were created to provide an annual forum for writers to inspire a new generation with their vision for the environment, social issues and literary excellence.

A signed and numbered collectable chapbook of the 2013 lecture will be available at the Rivercity Stage Theatre. Call the Arts Council at 250-9230213 to reserve a seat for this historic event.

(Margaret) Dale Merrithew July 1, 1930 – Sept 5, 2013

NOTICE TO CREDITORS AND OTHERS

January 18, 1926 - September 7, 2013

Dale passed peacefully at her home several months after suffering a heart attack. She was born in Vancouver BC the youngest daughter of Thomas and Phyllis Stewart (Edgell).

Dale is survived by her husband of 59 years Bruce, daughters Ann (Kent Allen) and Cathy (Gordon McColl), Granddaughter Maranda Allen (Qing Song Li) and Grandson Garrett Allen (Campbell River BC). Sister Ann Mary Franzen, nephews Mark Franzen (Karen) and Scott Franzen (Julie) (Washington State). Cousin Alison Currie (Australia). Her walking partner “Kaos.� Also long time friend & “Sistah� Bunny Meikle (Vancouver BC).

Mom grew up in both Vancouver and Point Roberts (Boundary Bay) Washington. A graduate of Magee High School she also attended Crofton House School and Sprott Shaw College which was owned by her Grandparents RJ and Anna Sprott. They introduced her to boating aboard their boat the Cleodoxa. She worked in Vancouver as a stenographer in the Marine Building before marrying Bruce in 1954 and moving to Comox BC. In 1961 they settled in Campbell River. Mom began work as a Kindergarten Teachers Assistant spending many years at the little school house on Larwood Road. Mom also worked at Discovery Press in the printing division.

Always on the go Mom was a member of the Ripple Rock Power Squadron, the Campbell River Yacht Club and an Honorary Life Member of the Campbell River Dog Fanciers. She so enjoyed walking her dogs on the seawalk.

Dale loved salt water fishing, having aced Mike Rippingale’s fishing course (more than once) and camping travelling across Canada and the USA. She and Bruce also travelled to Alaska in their camper van. They cruised up and down the inside passage and neighboring islands aboard their boat the Merrilee ll sharing many “happy hours� with their fellow boaters. She had a quick wit and loved to laugh. Being of Scotch/Irish descent she tackled everything head on including her health challenges.

Special thanks to the Campbell River Home Care nurses (especially Barb and Marlene) for the exceptional care. Dr Sullivan, Dr Booth, Dr Hargraves, Dr Phillips, Nanaimo Kidney Care staff, Jackie (Diabetes Education Center) and all the Home Support workers who helped us keep Mom comfortable.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to: The Canadian Diabetes Association or The Kidney Foundation of Canada or The Heart & Stroke Foundation.

At Dale’s request there will be no service. We will be having a get together at a later date.

Lillian loved her family and friends and lived life to the fullest. From Humboltd, Saskatewan to the B.C. coast, a little lady with a lot of spunk. Ocean Falls was a big part of her life where she met many of her lifelong friends. Her passions were gardening, cards and spending time with her extended families.

Predeceased by husbands Lorne Chase, and Wilbur Drew and her son George Chase. Remembered and loved by son Ron (Patsy) Chase, stepsons; Rochne Drew, Douglas (Kerri) Drew, stepdaughter Barbara Drew and their families, Her grandchildren and great grandchildren will also miss her dearly.

Thinking of her special laugh will put a smile on your face.

Everyone she knew was treated like family.

We wish to thank all her many friends for all their help; it is greatly appreciated. Donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

A Celebration of Life will be held at the Oyster Bay Resort on Saturday, Sept.14, 2013 at 1p.m.

Alma Ileen Kasdorf (nee Myrol) May 14, 1924-August 23, 2013

Alma passed away at 89 years of age after a battle with cancer. Predeceased by her husband John in 1994, she is survived by her children Tim (Audrey), Cheryl (Wayne), Barry (Diane) and Darlene (Peter); her grandchildren Sean, Tara, Kristin, Cory, Devon, Ryan, Rachel, Tessa, Brian, and Austin and her great-grandchildren Lena, Ben and Claire.

Alma was a woman of many talents, most brought forth by sheer determination. In Saskatchewan where she was born and raised, she taught school in a 2 room schoolhouse where she met her future husband John.

Alma never did anything halfway, from dance recital costume design to getting a golf course built when she took up the sport in Davidson, SK where they lived for 16 years.

When the family moved to Campbell River, she became active in the Curling Club and the Ladies Golf Club, and served as president of both. She was immensely proud of her family, her multitude of trophies and her creative endeavours.

Due to two new great-grandbabies arriving soon, a service will be held at a later date when all can attend.

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Canadian Cancer Society.

New program won’t let kids go to class hungry N

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

o child deserves to go to school hungry, yet as the new school year begins, a number of children in the community will arrive in their classrooms without having eaten a nutritious breakfast.

Children who don’t eat breakfast have difficulty concentrating in school.

Memory, behaviour and school attendance are also affected. In fact, studies show that not eating breakfast as a child can have a long term impact on health and academic achievement.

The Campbell River United Church, in cooperation with Pinecrest Elementary School, hopes to remedy this situation for the children in their neighbourhood.

The church started a breakfast program on Wednesday, Sept. 4, that will continue each school day throughout the 2013-14 school year.

Breakfast will be served in the Fellow-

ship Hall (accessed from the upper parking lot) every morning from 8-8:30. This community outreach project will help ensure that all neighbourhood school children have access to

a delicious and nourishing breakfast served in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Any child attending Pinecrest is welcome to participate.

Funding for this program has been pro-

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 13, 13, 2013 2013 || CAMPBELL CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || 33 33 FRIDAY,

vided by a grant from the Comox-Nanaimo Presbytery ProVision Fund, donations from the United Church congregation and from Pinecrest School. A coordinator for the pro-

gram has been hired and volunteers are ready to begin making and serving breakfast starting the second day of the school year.

Financial donations are welcome from indi-

viduals and from community groups. Parents and any other individuals who are interested in volunteering can pick up a form from the church office – criminal record checks are also required

from all volunteers.

For further information please call 250286-0431 or stop by the church office on Wednesday to Friday between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.
