Day ceremony. Council had considered legally changing the name from 11th Avenue to Veterans Way but city staff suggested council go with the honourary name to avoid change of address costs for the Legion, Uptown Willie’s, Britches and Hose Vintage Clothing, and the Community Centre. Legally changing the name would have also required the city create a new legal plan for the block and would have presented mapping issues for emergency responders, utility companies, and GPS devices. Hadfield told council last month that the honourary name change would be far simpler. “The process of making an honourary name change would be limited to the cost of the signage; and would not create a small segment of an existing road being legally known under a different name,” Hadfield said. “Sign blades could be custom designed to provide the prominence of this honourary section of 11th Avenue.” The name blades cost the city approximately $500.

trail leads from the parking area to the new bridge which spans the three pipelines, and that connects with the current trail system. As well, BC Hydro and Parks have decided to permanently keep the new parking area because of the new suspension bridge. “This parking area was key for us in getting approval for the suspension bridge,” said Rotarian Lorrie Bewza, chair of the Elk Falls Suspension Bridge Project. The 90-metre bridge is expected to open in June 2014. It will hang 60 metres above the canyon floor and provide spectacular views of the 25-metre falls. “ This project will showcase one of Campbell River’s most spectacular natural wonders,” Bewza said during a previous interview.

in Ontario for Caliber Bridge and Design Ltd. of Campbell River. “We wanted three B.C. firms to bid on the bridge, but they were all too busy so we had to go elsewhere. I guess that means the economy is doing well,” said Mark McCarthy, a Caliber engineer.
There were several challenges in getting the bridge in place. First and foremost was to shore up both sides so that a potential disaster wouldn’t allow the bridge to damage the pipelines. There were also considerations given to fibre optics, power lines, roads and more.
Finally, two cranes were brought in to lower the bridge into place. “The bridge went were it was supposed to go!” said BC Hydro spokesman Stephen Watson, who added that the trail leading to the new bridge is wheelchair accessible with no more than a five per cent grade.

One bridge will lead to another. That’s the plan at Elk Falls Provincial Park where a new BC Hydrofunded bridge just opened and that will lead to the building of a suspension bridge by the Campbell River Rotary Club. “Hydro does listen. They pulled all the people together and collaborated over the last five to six year,” said city councillor Andy Adams. Adams and Coun. Ron Kerr joined members of the BC Hydro community liaison committee, BC Parks and contractors last Wednesday for a first walk across the 120foot bridge that spans the woodstave pipelines. But first some background: Starting next year, BC Hydro will begin a nearly $1 billion project to replace the woodstave pipelines – that transfer water from John Hart Lake to the generating station – with a 2.1-kilometre tunnel that will run down General Hill to a brand new generat-
ing station. That’s required some rerouting of two popular hiking trails, the Canyon View and the one leading to the falls itself. In September, the Station View bypass trail opened on the Canyon View. It takes hikers up and around the generating station construction site, and will be open for the five-year project period. Also this fall, BC Hydro built a new and improved parking lot for Elk Falls sightseers, and that sits beside a new interpretive centre. The parking lot replaces the current parking lot which will no longer be accessible when Brewster Lake closes by John Hart Dam. And the centre features the history of power generation and includes current project updates. On Tuesday, another key component to the new Elk Falls route officially opened. A short

Changes coming to corner www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRivermirror.com
Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
The city says it will make changes to the corner at St. Ann’s and Shoppers Row after witnessing bus drivers trying to navigate the narrow turn. In early October, shortly after St. Ann’s was re-opened to traffic, the Mirror reported that transit drivers often have to turn into the oncoming traffic’s left turn lane on St. Ann’s in order to make the right-hand turn onto St. Ann’s from Shoppers Row. At the time, Ron Neufeld, the city’s general manager of operations, said the city was interested to hear concerns and feedback and that the St. Ann’s intersection was still under construction. Nearly a month later, Neufeld said he sees that changes could be made. “In response to some of the comments we were hearing about the intersection of Shoppers Row and St. Ann’s, we did some field testing with our city transit buses to determine if
“

minor adjustments to the curbing could be made to improve turning movements,” Neufeld said. “This process helped identify a few simple adjustments that we will be making to the curb at the intersection while the project is still under construction.” Construction crews are still looking at how best to improve the corner but options include shaving or reducing the curb angle where it juts out at the bottom of St. Ann’s. St. Ann’s was closed to traffic from July to early October while the city dug up the road to make improvements to underground infrastructure such as storm pipes,
water mains, and sewer pipes. During construction, Mayor Walter Jakeway sent an e-mail to council on Sept. 11 suggesting the layout of the curbs and islands may need to be adjusted before paving began. But Jakeway said nothing was done, paving went ahead and the road was subsequently reopened. It wasn’t long before Jakeway started receiving complaints from the public. “Council needs to make a big noise and the public needs to make a big noise,” Jakeway stressed in early October. “It’s foolishness. So they should yell and scream and maybe they’ll make the roads wider.” Now it seems Jakeway is getting his wish. But while improvements appear to be on the horizon, Neufeld said it will still be awhile. “We have asked the contractor to include these adjustments in their work plan, but of course, we are still giving priority to getting the roadwork completed

on Alder, Beech and Dubeau,” Neufeld said. “Once these roads are reopened to traffic, we will have the opportunity to go back to the intersection of Shoppers Row and St. Ann’s to make the adjustments to the curb.” Alder Street is currently closed to traffic between St. Ann’s and 10th Avenue while Beech and Dubeau also remain closed. Paving, however, is mostly complete on the Dubeau alley behind CIBC. The $4.05 million project is expected to last into the New Year.

Our View
Online voting on the horizon Our municipalities and province likely won’t be using Internet voting to help determine election results anytime soon. That doesn’t mean we won’t eventually be using such a method to cast our ballots in future. We say: There An independent panel tasked by is no reason to Elections B.C. to study Internet voting stop investigating recommended that any such system not be implemented in time for the online voting upcoming municipal election, nor the next B.C. vote. But it did suggest that a technical committee be struck to look into the matter further and that the legislature
should support jurisdictions that wish to pursue the option in future. The preliminary report offered less than lukewarm support for the idea. It confirmed that making voting easier for people in this way – those who are incapacitated, can’t work a trip to their local polling station into their schedule, or are too lazy to do so come to mind – has not been shown in other jurisdictions to significantly increase voter turnout. Increasing voter turnout at any level still comes down to individuals and parties doing the legwork and convincing non-voters of the importance of getting engaged in their communities, and potentially making a
difference through casting their ballot. That said, the world is fast becoming an all-digital environment, where computers and cellphones can be used for virtually any transaction. While the report states the current system of voting is trusted by those who vote, that factor will become less meaningful as time goes on and generations that have grown up with technology become our communities’ core voters. We may not have the most efficient or system-improving Internet voting experiences to draw from yet, but now is the best time to begin investigating this option, to be ready for when it is the best alternative. – Black Press
Letters
Helping seniors’ independence Did you know, falls account for 85 per cent of all injuries among seniors in B.C. and are the main reason why older adults lose their independence? When seniors fall, the consequences can be serious. In fact, falls were the leading cause of injury deaths among B.C. seniors in 2010. Increased fall risk can occur for a variety of reasons, usually from a lack of balance or inability to recover balance due to age-related physical or mental health problems, impaired mobility or vision, a reaction to medication(s), or slip and trip hazards. Falls usually happen at home, and women over 65 years are 2.3 times more likely to be hospitalized for a fall-related injury then men—many of these involve hip fractures. Nearly 1-in-10 hospitalizations among B.C. seniors were due to a fall last year and 40 percent of fall-related hospitalizations involved a hip fracture. Approximately one quarter of older adults who live independently prior to a hip fracture may need to live in a facility for a period of time following a fall-related fracture. A contributing factor is that seniors may become afraid of falling, so they restrict their activities and this can lead to weak muscles, stiff joints and poor balance, resulting in more falls. The good news is that most falls are predictable and can be prevented by taking simple steps to reduce fall risk. To raise awareness about the importance of reducing falls and related injuries among B.C.’s aging population and to encourage leadership and collaboration across the province, BC supports seniors’ fall prevention by proclaiming the first week in November as Seniors’ Fall Prevention Awareness Week.
Untangling the mess of oil pipeline politics
Tom Fletcher B.C. Views
Reaction was swift and scattered after the “framework agreement” on new oil pipelines announced last week by B.C. Premier Christy Clark and Alberta Premier Alison Redford. First, here’s what it doesn’t mean. “B.C. blinked,” according to one Toronto commentator, based on the popular notion that B.C. gave up its claim to a share of Alberta’s resource royalties from heavy oil. Clark never made such a claim, so it would be difficult to give it up. Her often-repeated condition of a “fair share” of revenues from any new oil pipelines is purposely vague, but after repeated protests from Alberta, Clark clarified as far back as last June that provincial royalties are not on the table. There is no constitutional way to
make such a demand, a point Redford has made several times. NDP leader Adrian Dix and the usual chorus of professional protesters claimed that Clark flip-flopped, opposing the Enbridge Northern Gateway proposal before the election and then embracing it once she was re-elected. This is also inaccurate. Clark’s five conditions were set out before the May election, demanding approval by a federal environmental review, “worldleading” spill prevention and response capability on land and at sea, meeting legal requirements to consult and share benefits with aboriginal communities, and the undefined “fair share” for B.C. Clark said numerous times during the campaign that the conditions have not been met, and made pessimistic noises
about Northern Gateway, but she very carefully did not campaign against it. The B.C. Liberal platform also endorsed a Kitimat-area oil refinery proposed by this newspaper’s owner, and Clark repeatedly referred to that sort of industrial expansion as one of the potential “fair share” components for B.C. The B.C. Liberal government made its opposition to Northern Gateway “as currently proposed” official on May 31, two weeks after the election, in its final submission to the federal review panel. If Clark had wanted to jump on the antipipeline bandwagon for political gain, that move could have been made earlier. NDP environment critic Spencer Chandra Herbert said the B.C. government has taken the position that more oil will reach the West Coast, by rail if
not by pipeline. I’m not sure if or when that claim was made, but it’s true that rail shipments are already permitted. Here’s what Redford and Clark agreed on. Redford accepts B.C.’s five conditions, provincial royalties excluded, and Clark endorsed Redford’s proposed “Canadian Energy Strategy,” which B.C. rejected last year. A draft of the strategy released last summer contains no specifics on how it would facilitate a pipeline project from Alberta to B.C. It talks about developing Canada’s energy reserves and at the same time somehow reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promises a final version next spring. Oh, and Quebec refuses to participate.

City could compost biosolids Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
An organic compost facility in Campbell River could save the city millions of dollars in improvement costs, says the city’s general manager of operations. A compost centre could accommodate the city’s biosolids, which are digested at the city’s Norm Wood Environmental Centre. If the city continues with its current practise, however, the centre’s biosolids treatment plant will need to be expanded long-term. A solution is to process the biosolids at the proposed compost centre. “If we put the compost facility here it would allow us to alter or eliminate the expansion of the waste treatment plant,” said Ron Neufeld on
Thursday afternoon during a tour of the Norm Wood Environmental Centre grounds. Neufeld said an organics facility could save the city $2.5 million in capital costs to upgrade the biosolids treatment plant. The city is looking to site the treatment plant on 10 hectares of land available at the Norm Wood Environmental Centre. The plan is to build the facility large enough to accommodate organics from the entire region – including the Comox Valley, Gold River, Tahsis and Zeballos. The initiative is part of the Comox Strathcona Solid Waste Management Plan. Campbell River was chosen as the best location for the regionalwide centre for efficiency reasons.
With waste to be trucked from the Campbell River dump’s transfer station to the Comox Valley landfill, it wouldn’t make sense to have empty trucks returning to Campbell River, according to Neufeld. With the compost centre here, trucks could take their load of waste from the Campbell River transfer station to the Cumberland landfill, pick-up organics in the Comox Valley and truck them back to Campbell River for drop-off at the compost centre. Wit h t h e C amp bell River landfill near capacity, the compost facility will play a role in expanding its life span. Amber Zirnhelt, the city’s sustainability manager, estimates organics make up 35 per cent of our household waste. “If we divert it all,
it would make a huge impact with the landfill near capacity,” Zirnhelt said. Waste that would be accommodated by the compost centre would include food scraps from households and restaurants, yard waste and possibly some industrial organic waste. The city estimates the amount of material going into the compost facility could be up to 11,000 tonnes per year, depending on regional participation. The city is preparing to issue a Request for Proposals in early 2014 to seek out a company to build the facility. The city is looking for a public-private partnership and has not ruled out allowing a private company to not only build, but finance, operate and own the facility.

Neufeld said once the Request for Proposals is issued and answered, the city will have a better idea as to the size and logistics of the proposed facility. “We have not prescribed a particular model,” Neufeld said. “What role the private partner will play is still to be determined. They could be the operator, they could be the operator and financer.” Neufeld said the City of Campbell River could enter into an agreement similar to the Community Centre, which was privately built and financed and then leased to the city for 10 years after which time the city took ownership. The city expects to select a company to take on the compost facility sometime in the first few months of 2014.

CEREC ( CEramic REConstruction) crowns are restorations that allow a dentist to construct an all ceramic (no metal) crown in only one visit using the latest CAD/CAM 3D technology. This incredible process takes about one hour and twenty minutes using Computer Aided Design resulting in a very strong Dr. Lathange and very aesthetic crown, onlay, Dentist veneer, or inlay. The process is extremely interesting! First, a blue antireflective powder is applied to your tooth. Next, a 3D imaging camera takes pictures of your tooth which then gets uploaded to the CEREC software. This software superimposes your existing tooth onto the preparation by the dentist. The software then sends the information to a special milling chamber which uses a solid block of ceramic or composite to build your tooth in anywhere from 4 to 20 minutes - depending on the complexity of the tooth - right before your eyes! The final product is a beautiful fully functional crown whose 9 year survival rate is 95.5%. The anterior aesthetics of CEREC crowns is amazing due to the materials very natural appearance. For more information on CEREC crowns please contact Dogwood Dental at 250-287-7343.

The Temperature of the grow room should be adjusted according to the types of plants you are raising. For example, summer vegetables and most flowers grow best between Christa Fernau 60º and 80º F. Winter vegetables like spinach and lettuce prefer temperatures of between 50º and 70º. Also, keep in mind that many crops prefer a lower temperature at night, often as much as 10º. Temperature is sometimes an easy basic to overlook. But if the temperatures in your grow room are either too low or too high, you’ll end up with abnormal development and reduced production.

Orthopedic surgeons can work wonders on injured knees in the operating room but the road to recovery doesn’t end with surgery. It’s only the first step of what can sometimes be a difficult journey without the guidance of a rehabilitation specialist like a Physiotherapist. LISSA HEINZ Post-operative rehabilitation is a Physiotherapist huge factor in determining how well people recover from surgery.

Quick, someone get me $60,000! Over the 30 years from 1982 to 2012 the average sale price of single family homes in Campbell River has increased by $212,835 or 284%. If history were to repeat itself and you bought a single family home Jenna Nichol REALTOR® here today for the average sale price of $310,313 hypothetically you could expect the value in 30 years to be $881,288.92. Now imagine if you only actually had to come up with a 20% down payment on an investment property of that value today and you let a tenant pay the mortgage off for you. That initial investment of $62,063 has the potential to become $881,288 over 30 years. Not without some risk along the way of course, but what good investment doesn’t come with that?

During cold winter months it is common for pets to get the winter blues, and they may develop behavior problems as a result of boredom or frustration.These undesired behaviors can become permanent habits if they are not interrupted quickly. If your pet suddenly develops an undesirable behavior such as house soiling, destructive chewing, or restlessness, it Dr. Peter Woodward is important to visit your veterinarian to rule out any medical issues. Toxic winter chemicals are abundant: antifreeze, windshield deicer and salt. When out for those brisk winter walks keep a watchful eye on your dogs & cats and keep on a leash or limit their outdoor time. Make sure your four legged companion has clean drinking water and that it hasn’t frozen over (if the water is outside). Last winter tip: continue brushing your pet’s coat regularly - the old undercoat needs to be constantly brushed and removed to ensure their skin is naturally moisturized or skin irritation and infection can occur.

Stories Beach ‘prefers’ the natural look 12 12 || CAMPBELL CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR | WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2013

hose aren’t totem poles lined up at Stories Beach. Rather, they’ll become bird houses and natural storm breaks as part of an innovative pilot project by the Ministry of Transportation. “We’re not building a big, high wall to keep the ocean in – this is definitely more of a green shore,” said Sean Wong, a senior biologist with the ministry. Wong, along with a team of three people and one equipment operator, began work last week
to stabilize about 200 metres of beachfront that borders the Island Highway. The original plan was to spend about $100,000 to put in riprap and create a more level beach which could help mitigate storm damage to the highway. But as Wong points out, that usually means the effects of damaging storms are pushed further along the beach, typically in the direction of the prevailing wind and tide. In this case, that would be north there’s a stream, property and homes. The rip-rap look is also so 1970s when
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
the engineering rule of thumb was “controlling nature” with as much concrete as possible. But Stories Beach will be different, says Wong, who adds the project has the approval of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. With a budget of approximately $25,000 – one-quarter of the original plan – he’s brought in logs and stumps from forestry burn piles, and has used existing driftwood, to stabilize the beach while maintaing a far more natural look. “Our goal is to mimic the natural beachfront – we’re trying to avoid a sterile, non-natural look,” he says.

attention to aesthetics. Natural plants and grasses have been planted throughout the work zone along with some trees. As for the standing timber, not only will they help block flying driftwood during the big winter storms, they also have cutouts to provide homes for nesting birds. Another contractor, from the Oyster River Enhancement Society, is also making bird houses for purple mar-
tins whose numbers are rebounding on the coast thanks to conservation efforts. “In the 1980s they were down to like five breeding pairs. Now they’re up to 950!” Wong points out as he surveys the beach work. “We want to mimic the natural features and promote stability. Artificial solutions typically transfer the problem down the line – and harder treatments, like concrete walls and riprap, have
more impact on the environment and native species.” This is a pilot project for the ministry on Vancouver Island, and Wong hopes there are more opportunities to do the same type of work elsewhere. He does have one request though for wood stove owners: Please do not cut any more logs or driftwood on Stories Beach. “That would just destabilize things,” he says.

A basic Buy-Sell Agreement should dictate what would happen if either Darlene Garat partner was to die, become disabled, Financial Advisor or seriously ill. However, often the agreement will just say one party will buy out the other (or his/her estate) if the other dies. Agreements rarely say how the continuing partner will finance the buy-out. It is unlikely that half of the company’s market value will be sitting around in cash, and credit under these situations is very hard to get, so the alternative may be a new partner you may not want (as the shares typically pass to a spouse or family members). You can avoid these issues by funding your Buy-Sell with cross-cross life insurance including disability contracts with buy-out provisions. A well-crafted insurance strategy will give you the cash you need when you need it by funding your business Buy-Sell Agreement.

The process is relatively simple: They first drill through large rocks; loop steel cable through the holes; use the excavator to embed the rocks as much as possible in the beach; and then secure the stumps and woody debris to the cables. After that, nature takes over. Waves will drive smaller debris and gravel up behind the secured wood, to create backfill and a far more stable beach. Wong is also paying
Think of what you’d like your dog to do instead of jumping up…..we suggest having your dog “sit” instead. Dogs will typically jump up to solicit attention, in the form of touch or verbal contact, and the more people try to push them away or scold them, the more the dog thinks his jumping up is working. Catch your dog before he leaps by Cathy Merrithew taking a step towards him, effectively taking away the space he needs to jump, asking him for a “Sit”, rewarding with a treat to stop him in his tracks. Ask your other family members to do the same, and when you have company over be sure to have your dog on a leash to prevent him from “practicing” the bad behavior. Ask your friends to help train him by having them give your dog the treat when he sits instead of leaping up. Having your dog learn to sit for everything he wants will speed up the process, he’ll quickly learn that in order to get attention, he’ll have to sit. You can also have him sit every time before you open the door to let him out, or put on his collar and leash for a walk. Pretty much everything he wants will come to him, if he sits first.

Man vows to fight cemetery rules Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
A Campbell River man is taking aim at the city’s “nonsensical” cemetery rules. Brien Dolan disagrees with the city’s prohibition of upright markers on grave sites and warned council that it’s policy may violate freedom of expression. “Not allowing grieving relatives the right to erect a tombstone to honour and remember their loved ones is short sighted, cruel and nonsensical,” Dolan wrote in a letter to city council. “There is a reason why no other village, town or city anywhere in Canada has enacted similar legislation. It’s because the policy doesn’t make sense.” Dolan pointed out that banning tombstones may conflict with some religions which prescribe above ground memorials. “Many of the five major religions also mandate their members to place tombstones on the graves of their relatives,” Dolan wrote. “Alarmingly, it just might be that this bylaw violates citizen’s religious beliefs and their rights of religious expression.” Beyond that, Dolan said he believes upright markers provide “an emotional and reflective reminder of who we are and where we come from.” At Tuesday’s council meeting, Coun. Ron Kerr thanked Dolan for his letter and attempted to get council to take another look at cemeteries. “I think it’s appropriate in light of some of the decisions we’ve made on the cemeteries recently and as some of the things that Mr. Dolan brings to our attention in his letter, that the community… enter into some conversation on how we can expect to see our cemeteries and memorial locations in the future,” Kerr said. “I think by doing this it may alleviate some

of the pain and frustration that I see occurring over some of these decisions we made.” Last month council implemented a cleanup plan to remove all mementos, other than flowers, from the graves in both cityy cemeteries. The city’s reasoning is some of the objects blow off the graves and become tripping hazards. Upright markers were already banned from the cemetery because they make it difficult for maintenance workers to cut grass around graves. Coun. Kerr wanted council to direct the city’s Community Services, Recreation and Culture Commission to set up a sub-committee with members of the public to discuss opening a new cemetery and the feasibility of creating alternative memorial options. City Manager Andy Laidlaw, however, told council that it went against policy to direct the commission to set up a sub-committee and that it is up to the commission to form its own sub-committees if it sees fit. Mayor Walter Jakeway suggested that council instead forward Dolan’s letter to the commission and that councillors Larry Samson, Mary Storry, and Kerr, who sit on the Community Services Commission, explain council’s interest.

Adding more beds to the new Campbell River Hospital will provide better health care and would be more cost effective, according to the local MLA and three doctors who spoke out last Thursday. “Let’s get this right and not build a hospital where, two years later down the road, we wish we had done it right,” said North Island MLA Claire Trevena. The NDP MLA was joined by a trio of vet-
eran local doctors: Dr. Bob Gordon, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Deke Botsford, and former chief of staff Dr. Peter Olesen. They gathered in Botsford’s Willow Point office to publicly express their concern that the new $266-million, 95-bed hospital will not provide adequate space to meet current or future patients’ needs. Construction on the new hospital is slated to begin next year. Just two weeks ago, Campbell River Hospital had 103 patients and over-crowding is a con-

stant issue. “We compromise care every day by not admitting patients we should be admitting,” said Dr. Oleson. He added that health professionals due their best to keep people out of hospital and to provide quality home care, but some patients, “do better in hospital from an acute care perspective.” Another issue doctors see is Campbell River’s aging population. “We’re quickly turning from a resource community into a retirement community,” said Dr.
Botsford, who’s doing far more hip replacement surgeries that he’s ever done before. According to Dr. Gordon, the official health care term for too many patients is “over-census,” which he calls a euphemism for “bed shortage.” This leads, he said, to surgery cancellations which aren’t quickly rescheduled because everything is over-booked. Just as worse, said Dr. Botsford, is when surgeries are cancelled because there aren’t enough beds available. The other aspect of
MANAGING YOUR MONEY 4X10 Today’s decisions4X10 could cost tomorrow
Every day, Canadians are faced with spend versus save decisions that will have an eventual impact on their future financial life and the quality of their retirement years. Here’s the dilemma in a nutshell: “I know I should save for my retirement but that new big screen LED TV is on sale for a great price and it would be a terrific upgrade for our family room.”
earlier you start saving, the better – especially within a tax-reducing, tax-sheltered RRSP where the magic of compounding will enhance your investment growth over time – the first thing you need to know is what you are saving for. In other words, you can’t measure a future need without knowing what that need will be. So start by carefully defining your objectives – some are straightforward, like your desire to buy a larger home at some future date; others require much more thought, like looking at your retirement from every angle and defining the level and duration of finances you will eventually need to achieve your dreams.
Sure, it’s difficult to think about a distant future plan (something intangible that is way down the road) when you can get something you want today, this is why many people don’t set realistic goals. But, in this case the solution seems obvious: Stay with the perfectly serviceable TV you’ve already paid for and put the money you would have spent on the new one into a retirement fund (or some other investment).
Once you’ve made your calculations, it’s time to decide on how and how much you should invest to reach your objectives. And now things become even more complex: • What happens if the amount you think is adequate gets eaten up by an inflation level that escalates some time in the future? • What if your choices of investments do not provide the levels of returns you will

Consultant
one day need – because the returns have been reduced by market volatility or an unexpected economic downturn? • What if your income – and thus, your ability to save – is affected by ill health, a workplace accident, a sudden unexpected expense, or even job loss?
over-crowding is where to put the extra patients? They need somewhere safe, where they can be monitored and have access to other amenities, such as bathrooms. “It’s not like we’re not going to care for sick people, but they need to be safe,” said Dr. Oleson. “A lot of credit goes to the staff and nurses for going above and beyond their duty.” The doctors said 10-15 more beds in the new hospital would make a significant difference and the time to include these new beds in the plans is now, before construction begins. Too build or renovate later, or to find other safe places to house patients, is far more costly, they said. And the number of beds for the new hospi-
tal, 95, was devised by the Ministry of Health, not the Island Health authority. “It’s a Ministry of Health decision,” Dr. Botsford said. The doctors and Trev-

ena all said the new hospital is much-needed. However, they believe the ministry should revisit the demographics and revise the bed number so over-crowding isn’t an issue for the next 50 years. “Right now we have a bed meeting every morning…and most of the time (staff) is tearing out their hair, wondering where they (patients) will all go,” said Dr. Botsford. “There’s no give in the system – and it’s only going to get worse.” paulr@campbellrivermirror.com

The Bra Lady Is Coming 2x6 to Size You Up

Are you tired of feeling saggy, lumpy, pinched or strained? Well you’re not alone. As you’ve probably seen on Oprah or read in women’s magazines, over 80 per cent of all women wear the wrong size bra. Here’s where Barb Chapman, the Bra Lady, comes in.

CRIB Elders hosts their annual
and a Grammy nomination under their belt, Glass Tiger was invited as the “Special Guests” for Tina Turner’s 1987 European tour. Outside of a short hiatus during the mid 90’s,
Chapman is coming to CAMPBELL RIVER ON THURSDAY NOV. 28TH to outfit you with the best possible bra for your body.
Chapman said she will be seeing clients on a one-on-one basis, explaining the benefits of good bras and measuring their bodies properly. “Most women just want to find a good-fitting bra that’s not uncomfortable,” Chapman said. “What they don’t realize is that a good support bra is also important for blood circulation and enhanced lymph drainage.” Chapman has over 200 bra sizes available for ordering, ranging from 30AA to 52KK. It’s likely that you’ll fit somewhere between those sizes. She offers these questions for women to ask themselves: • Do you have a drawer full of bras but none that fit comfortably? • Does your bust line “bounce” when you walk while wearing your “everyday” bra? • Do you overflow the cup of your bra? • Do your bra straps slip off your shoulders or dig into your shoulders leaving red and painful marks? • Does your bra ride up in the back because you tighten the straps to give you added support? • Have you ever begun an exercise class only to drop out because your breasts ached from lack of support while jumping or running? If you answer yes to any of these you are in need of a new bra, and a custom one could be the way to go.

Me (When I’m Gone)” yielded a #2 spot on Billboard that was followed by “Someday” which reached #5. Both songs also made Canadian history when Glass Tiger won successive Juno’s a year apart for Single of the Year from the same album. With five Juno awards
Staff and volunteers at the Campbell River Art Gallery have decked the halls for the 13th Annual Christmas Arts and Crafts Market. The Christmas Market, sponsored by Chan Nowosad Boates Chartered Accountants, opened Nov. 7. With more than 15 new artisans featured, the Market is bigger and better than ever and will provide Christmas shoppers with the opportunity to purchase quality handcrafts, support local artisans and support the Campbell River Art Gallery. The Market will be open from Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. until Christmas Eve. The Gallery will be open late Friday, Nov. 29 to coincide with the Downtown BIA’s Starlight Shopping. The Market will be open until 8 p.m. and volunteers will be on hand from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. making Christmas cards with members of the public. Shoppers will be able to choose from a huge selection of amazing work this season. There will be everything from fine jewellery to handmade soaps, beautiful woodwork, stunning pottery, beautiful glass and much more.

Discovered in the summer of 1984 when a band from Newmarket, Ontario called Tokyo spent two evenings performing before capacity crowds at Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens opening for Boy George and Culture Club. Their dynamic original sound captured the moment, and the race to sign them was on. Tokyo, which had become a major force in suburban high schools and the Ontario club circuit, officially became Glass Tiger early the following year when a record deal was finally signed with Capitol Records. With Jim Vallance (Bryan Adams; Aerosmith; Ozzy Osbourne) behind the boards, Glass Tiger was immediately introduced to the recording studio to work on their first album. “Thin Red Line” set a record for being the fastest selling debut recording in Canadian history, going gold within weeks of its release. To date, this album has received four Platinum records in Canada and went Gold in the United States. One of Glass Tiger’s many hit singles “Don’t Forget

OPEN HOUSE SEEKS FEEDBACK ON SHIPPING CONTAINER USE Members of the business community are invited to provide their input on the use of shipping containers in the community.
The next step in the City’s downtown waterfront charrette re: vacant land near Roberts Reach Road and Highway #19A takes place this month.
DATE: November 13 TIME: 6:30 to 8 PM WHERE: Enterprise Center (next to City Hall)
Members of the public are invited to observe and share their feedback.

WHERE:
Discovery Harbour Shopping Centre, unit 84 (next to Subway, facing the highway)
Key background information and the “realtime” efforts of the charrette participants will be shared, including results from the recent “precharrette” open houses and ideas from the Youth Action Committee. Help fine-tune the community vision for this area that was established through the Sustainable Official Community Plan process. A charrette is a collaborative design and planning session that combines the interests of a diverse group of people to generate a land use and urban design concept that serves a range of community interests. Questions? Contact Land Use Services Manager Ross Blackwell at 250-203-1144.
WHY AN OPEN HOUSE? • In response to an increasing number of community complaints about the look of the shipping containers, Council is considering a proposed bylaw to restrict their use in certain parts of the community, particularly in residential and more prominent commercial areas such as the downtown core.
CITY CURRENTS CLASS SLOP / PUZZLE PAGE
• The City’s proposed bylaw restricts the use of containers to industrial zones, with exceptions in some instances. With a written request, the proposed bylaw would allow temporary use for between 30 and 90 days to accommodate construction or for stores bringing in stock, for example. • The proposed bylaw also includes an opportunity for exemptions for future installations through the City’s variance application process. Exemptions for existing containers would also be considered on a case-by-case basis through a formal variance application to the City.

severe winter storms we have experienced in the last few weeks may have delayed many of the swans as they often have to land until the storm has abated. Leaving the Arctic area as soon as the first frosts arrive they have to start their migration whie there is still open water. Being such large birds they need a water “runway” to take off, they will run along on top of the water until they can become airborne.
The southern migration is particularly gruelling for the family, especially the young, they need to be in top flying condition and carry sufficient fat supplies to last them until they can make a stop to refuel. Sadly many first year swans do not survive the rigors of the migration and perish en route, others arrive weak and starving these are usually the swans that arrive for care at our center. Trumpeter swans have

a mixed diet depending on the season. In the spring their arrival coincides with the explosion of thousands of insects which they consume together with newly emerging aquatic vegetation. In the winter their diet consists of natural aquatic vegetation and insects found in the estuaries together with roots – especially potatoes – and grasses that are provided for them thanks to the local farmers and their flooded fields. As the swans return to their winter feeding grounds they gather in large social flocks in the fields; most of the daylight hours are spent in the estuaries or shallow shore lines. At night, they seek the safety of the inland fields. Flocks of swans can been seen in various parts of the Comox Valley. One of the most visible areas is the Comox Valley Farm fields between the 5th and 17th Street bridges; please do not stop in this area, the swans can panic and attempt flight before they are fully prepared. Each year, a group of naturalists and volunteers monitor the swans with a weekly count throughout the Comox Valley. The data collected is critical to the future well-being of the swans and their habitat. In celebration of these magnificent birds M.A.R.S. will hold a Swan Fest on Saturday, Nov. 23 at the K’omox First Nations Hall on the Dyke Road in Comox. Learn more about the swans and enter our photo contest and meet the M.A.R.S. ambassador birds. Visit www.wingtips.org for more details. To report injured or orphaned wildlife, call 250-3372021.

Crossfit comes naturally to Dean New sport Takes hold in Campbell River
Leigha Dean, a local up and coming crossfit athlete and member of the local crossfit box, Crossfit O’Twelve, made an extraordinary showing in the Taranis Titan Challenge in the Victoria area Nov. 2-3. Dean’s success emerged early in the challenge, as she earned second place in the second of nine rounds. This event consisted of 20-15-10-5 rep rounds for time: toes to bar, hand release push ups, burpees, box jumps 24”/20”. Over the two days, Dean ranked 10th of 36 women competitors....a notable accomplishment for an athlete new to crossfit competition.
Dean has only been involved in the crossfit community for under 10 months. Dean says, “It was about three months ago I started pounding it down, readying myself for competition. “It was an amazing experience to be competing with women who had so much more experience in the world of crossfit competitions. The first event happened to be in my area of comfort, and that helped to settle my nerves and give me confidence that I would be able to make a strong showing.” Coach Kaiya McNeillPayeur says, “Crossfit O’Twelve has been open for just over a year. Having one of our athletes work so hard and achieve such success in such a short time is wonderful. “C oaching her to achieve this success is inspiring, and drives us to continue to help

all our clients reach their athletic potential.” The Taranis Winter Challenge has been running since 2009. It is an individual and team competition that takes from 80-100 individual competitors and 20-24 teams. Competitors come from all over western Canada and the U.S. Pacific Northwest United States. For those new to this emerging sport, crossfit is many things. Primarily, it’s a fitness regimen developed by coach Greg Glassman over several decades. Crossfit itself is defined as that which optimizes fitness (constantly varied functional movements performed at relatively high intensity). The top awards in crossfit are earned at the International Crossfit Games, where the Fittest Man and Woman on Earth are crowned.

Salvation Army seeks Kettle campaign volunteers The 2013 Christmas Kettle Campaign will run from Nov. 22 to Dec. 24 and The Salvation Army is in need of more kettle volunteers to ring those bells. The Salvation Army Christmas Kettle Campaign is one of Canada’s largest and most recognizable annual charitable events with all dollars donated staying in the community where the donation was made. In Campbell River, the Kettle funds are directed to the community work at the Lighthouse Centre located at 1381 Cedar Street. On average, Lighthouse Centre assists 1,800 individuals/families every month. During the winter season (and over Christmas) this demand increases. The Lighthouse Centre serves lunch Monday to Friday, providing access to emergency assistance for food, clothing, shelter, advocacy, community referrals, showers, personal hygiene supplies, and Adopt-A-Family Christmas Hampers. “The Lighthouse Centre serves our community with an ‘everyone welcome’ philosophy. Our primary focus is on support services for clients encountering a variety of barriers including low income, unemployment, addictions, social isolation, homelessness and mental illness,” says Sean Junglas, Community Ministries Director. Junglas added, “This level of outreach is only possible because of the generous support from our community and dollars raised through the Christmas Kettle Campaign.” The Salvation Army is going to kick-off the kettle fundraising campaign Friday, Nov. 22 at the Campbell River Storm home game. “We will have kettles at the game, and our brass group will be leading the audience in some Christmas Carols during one of the period breaks,” said Tami Ness, Christmas Kettle Coordinator. Kettle shifts run 2-4
hours each, Monday ‐ Saturday from 10 a.m. ‐ 6 p.m. Kettles are located around the community in 10 locations so there is sure to be a Kettle in your neighbourhood or near your workplace making
volunteering very flexible. If you are able to volunteer, contact Tami Ness, Kettle Coordinator at 250-287-1440. About The Salvation Army in Camp-
