Central Cariboo Search and Rescue’s chief of operations Rick White installed a Canadian flag and bouquet of roses on one of the organization’s trucks Monday to honour North Shore Rescue’s Tim Jones who died suddenly Sunday evening. along the North Shore and area,” 1 White said.

Jones requested 35 cell phones but White told him this wasn’t going to happen because there was no cell phone coverage in the Red Stone area at the time.

“He looked at me and asked where the heck he was going so I tried to explain that to him midflight in the chopper.”

That search lasted four days, and Jones adapted very well and did a great job, White said.

“Tim was involved with Search and Rescue for more than 20 years and was a B.C. paramedic for a long time,” White said. “He was always on the news looking for funding, making sure to look after the SARs people, always advocating for radios and creating networks.”

On Monday Premier Christy Clark issued a statement, saying she was saddened to hear the tragic news about Jones.

“Tim represented the North

Shore and B.C. at our absolute best,” Clark said. “He dedicated the best part of his life to helping people in the worst moment of theirs.”

Clark said Jones built one of North America’s most innovative and successful search-and-rescue teams, to date finding more than 1,000 people and saving dozens of lives.

Clark presented Jones with the Order of British Columbia in 2011.

NEWS Rescued Horsefly Lake loon makes full recovery Angie Mindus Staff Writer It’s the happy ending everyone was hoping for.

An injured loon rescued in December after being trapped in the ice at Horsefly Lake is now fully recovered and enjoying a taste of the city life off the coast of Vancouver.

According to the Wildlife Rescue Association of BC (WRABC), the loon was released back into the wild last weekend after spending four weeks in the care of the association where it received treatment for a puncture wound in its neck that penetrated its esophagus and caused an infectious mass the size of a golf ball.

“It was a very delicate rehabilitation — quite difficult,” said Yolanda Brooks, com-

munications co-ordinator for WRABC. Brooks said volunteers typically release rehabilitated birds back into the wild, but the Horsefly loon release was special.

Excited staff at the facility kept the Horsefly loon for themselves to release Sunday afternoon.

“One of the staff was doing the happy dance,” said Brooks.

“They were really pleased.”

Brooks said it was touch and go when the loon first arrived.

“Once it had settled into its new surroundings, rehabilitation staff removed the mass and sutured the wound,” said Brooks.

“It took four weeks for the wounds to heal, its feathers to grow back and for it to regain its strength.”

Staff suspect the bird was injured by a

The common loon rescued from the icy waters of Horsefly Lake last month recovered at the Wildlife Rescue Association of BC facility in Burnaby before being released into the wild last weekend. fishing hook, which is a common injury seen in loons and geese.

Brooks said the loon was given the all clear this past weekend and released off the coast near Vancouver, where it will likely hang out in the Indian Arm or Burrard Inlet before migrating in the spring.

Last month, Horse-

fly residents, South Cariboo Search and Rescue, Animal Care Hospital and Pacific Coastal Airlines were all involved in the Christmas rescue after locals spotted the immature loon and another one trapped in a small patch of water that was about to freeze over.

The immmature loon rescued last month at Horsefly Lake is now fully recovered and living free off the coast of Vancouver.

Rescue crews were able to capture the one loon in a salmon net and wrap it in a blanket, then fly it down to the facility courtesy of Pacific Coastal Airlines.

“I understand the rescue was quite dangerous — it is an amazing thing they did. But

the effort was worthwhile and we definitely appreciate it.”

The Wildlife Rescue Assoc. is located on the south shore of Burnaby Lake and last year cared for 4,131 injured birds and animals.

Brooks said a handful of birds come from

the Cariboo every year, transported for free by Pacific Coastal Airlines.

The association runs entirely on public donations.

Minister of Justice visits with lakecity leaders Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Minister of Justice and Attorney General Suzanne Anton was in Williams Lake Monday to talk about crime.

She met with RCMP members from a number of detachments as well as Anaham Chief Joe Alphonse, Williams Lake Indian Band Chief Anne Louie and Mayor Kerry Cook.

“I’m very impressed with the level of community involvement and community interest because fundamentally these are community issues,” Anton said after the meetings.

“The provincial government can help in a number of different

ways, but the true resolutions of issues like crime come from the community. There’s a lot of engagement and thinking about how to solve those problems.”

Anton said RCMP members from 100 Mile House, Williams Lake, Alexis Creek and Prince George met with her to discuss policing challenges.

“Williams Lake has had a fairly high crime rate and it’s really the issue of how to reduce that. It’s actually been reduced already, but they talked about how to bring that down.

It’s not a statistic that people enjoy.”

They talked about the right kind of policing, how police service should best be deployed, and how

Minister of Justice Suzanne Anton visits in Williams Lake. police and community services should be marshalled in the most effective way, she said.

Police told Anton prolific offenders continue to be a problem and the existing pro-

lific offender program could use some help.

“I will be meeting to determine how the province might be able to help out with the program,” Anton said of the prolific offender program.

Since becoming the minister of justice and attorney general, there have been ongoing discussions about the need to increase legal aid, however, Anton said not all justice is delivered through legal aid.

“There is a lot of justice we do through alternative dispute resolution through one kind or another. We are looking at innovative ways for people to achieve justice.”

A recent report by the chief judge of the

provincial court indicated court times have gone down and courts are freeing up, she said.

The appointment of judges has helped with the backlog, but also the fact many impaired driving cases don’t go through criminal court anymore because of the immediate roadside suspension program.

Aside from helping with the backlog in the courts, the program is also saving lives, she said.

“We just got the latest stats and I think it’s 190 lives that have been saved as a result of the program. People don’t like to drink and drive anymore, it’s been extremely effective.”

Clayton Pecknold,

assistant deputy minister and director of police services with the policing and security programs branch, also attended the meetings.

Anton said she will go back and meet with Pecknold and Cariboo Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett to see what they can do to help make sure the right people are always in the room when discussions about crime and policing are taking place.

“I can hear about something for a long time, but until I actually come and see it and visit, it’s obviously much more meaningful once I’ve been here,” Anton said.

Anton also met with people in Quesnel on Monday afternoon.

Community policing active Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Community policing received 3,000 volunteer hours in 2013. “Of that 1,800 was spent out in the community so that’s a lot of extra eyes and ears our members who were on patrol,� safer community co-ordinator Dave Dickson told city council during an update.

Restorative Justice’s 40 volunteers and trainers put in more than 1,000 hours and did 40 plus cases. “Our annual grant that we apply to just came through from the government so that’s

a boost in the arm for 2014,� Dickson said.

The newly-launched Wandering Program is going well and people are encouraged to get involved, Dickson said. “If you have a person under your care who has dementia or Alzheimer’s it’s a program where you can give us basic information and a current photograph to the detachment.�

The community policing team will manage it so that if a person goes missing officers will immediately have accurate data and a current colour photo that they can share with social media.

In 2013 Speed Watch

volunteers put in excess of 140 hours and checked more than 6,000 vehicles.

They looked at speeding vehicles and at driver distraction. “Cell phones are all too common and Heaven forbid we would have somebody injured by someone paying attention to their cell while driving,� he said.

Insp. Warren Brown said Williams Lake has 15 community policing programs involving more than 300 volunteers. “I would boast that against any other community our size or larger,� Brown said.

Dryer fire mobilizes firefighters The Williams Lake fire department responded to a house fire on Foster Way Sunday night around 11 p.m. “The fire started in a clothes dryer and spread to the washer and part of the room as well,� Fire

Chief Des Webster said Monday. “The fire damage was contained to the laundry room, however, there was smoke damage to the rest of the basement.�

Webster said once

again it was a working smoke alarm that alerted the residents to the fire. “The resident tried to extinguish the fire with a fire extinguisher, but was unable. Not sure of the cause or the cost of the damage.�

Luckily Maggie was okay, but this isn’t always the case. The chemical theobromine, found in chocolate, can cause vomiting, diarrhea, hyperactivity, seizures and in severe cases, death.

Although Maggie was quite shaken by the turn of events, there’s no guarantee that she learned her lesson‌ one can only hope her owners did!

Free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad. - Albert Camus

Cumulative impacts

B.C. property assessment

nvironmentalists are constantly accused of being “against everything.” Some are, but it’s easy to discredit what you don’t want to hear, and actually few Greenies oppose resource extraction, what they don’t like is the extracting processes.

Given the wonders of today’s technology, industries should be able to find ways to dig up, cut down and drill for stuff without causing significant environmental or social damage.

They don’t do it because they don’t have to. Instead of setting high standards and enforcFrench ing them, governConnection ments generally Diana French aid and abet the destruction. No one is really looking at the big picture, no one is adding up all the parts. It’s like the world is a big apple, everyone is taking bites with no concern for the end results. *** Two events in Prince George this month focussed on B.C.’s northern resources, forestry, mining (coal, metals and minerals), oil and gas, and the proposed Site C dam.

The first event, hosted by UNBC with funding from BC’s Oil and Gas Commission, dealt with the cumulative effects of resource development. The point was to show that unless planned for, or mitigated in some way, the effects and impacts of resource developments (bites) can cause irreversible changes to the land and all that live on it.

The solution is to have governments and the different industries working together with researchers and communities to take a holistic approach to minimize unanticipated outcomes and learn from past mistakes.

Tomorrow the provincial government is hosting a Natural Resources forum with Premier Clark as the main attraction.

I believe Mayor Cook is attending. This event promotes the development of resource industries. MLA Mike Morris is quoted as saying resource sectors can no longer work in silos by themselves, they need to collaborate and work together, looking at jobs and trades, and the skills that are needed. And perhaps take a peek at cumulative impacts?

Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

any of you have already received your BC Assessment notice in the mail.

This annual process conducted by BC Assessment is completed in order to provide local governments across the province the most up-to-date assessment base for property taxation.

The process of determining your property assessment value is objective and independent. Appraisers determine individual property values based on local real estate sales and several other characteristics of your home.

The Cariboo MLA Regional District Musings and the City of Williams Lake Donna Barnett use this information to determine the total tax base for the upcoming year in preparation of the annual budget. Of course, your property taxes fund many local-level programs such as parks and recreational services, fire, police, and transit services.

These are services we use every single day and improve the quality of life in the Cariboo. Whether you live in a rural or urban subdivision, we all pay our fair share of property taxes to ensure that local services are well funded and can continue to meet the needs for residents.

In our region, most property assessment changes were between minus five per cent and plus five per cent showing that property values were relatively stable. However, at the end of the day our local governments will make the final determination of property tax rates payable this year.

If you have specific questions regarding your assessment notice, contact BC Assessment directly by calling toll-free at 1-866-valueBC (1-866-825-8322) or visit their website at bcassessment.ca.

You can also visit the Cariboo BC Assessment office at Suite 202 – 350 Barnard Street in Williams Lake.

On a final note, I would like to personally congratulate Pioneer Log Homes on their new reality TV show Timber Kings on HGTV. It is so great to see Williams Lake and one of our local businesses showcased nationwide!

Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

Our Viewpoint

Measures of kindness No amount of kindness offered is too small.

I don’t know where I saw that, but it must have been on a poster somewhere in my travels around town, or in between school and the arena recently.

I’m not one to surround myself with positive mantras but this one seems to have really stuck with me.

Wouldn’t the world be a better place if we were all a little kinder –– not letting ourselves be led around by our egos and insecurities?

North Shore Search and Rescue lost a man last weekend who seemed to lived his life while spring boarding from one act of kindness after another.

Tim Jones died Sunday after collapsing while hiking down from a rescue cabin on Mt. Seymour. His passing is being felt around the province, even here in Williams Lake.

He was the spokesperson for most search and rescue operations at the coast and it was apparent through his time in the media spotlight that he cared deeply for those he helped.

Reporters cried while reporting on his death this week and Premier Christy Clark issued a press release marking his passing.

It’s fair to say I think we’d all love a send off like that when it’s our time to go.

But we can’t all live our lives so grand, and I personally know many individuals deserving of praise for their acts of kindness in our community.

Like the residents of Horsefly Lake, members of the South Cariboo Search and Rescue, staff at the Animal Care Hospital and Pacific Coast Airlines who all worked together in December to save the life of one injured juvenile loon.

Or, the staff at the Wildlife Rescue Association at the coast who nursed the fragile bird back to health over several weeks.

We heard yesterday that Interior Roads offered up a huge act of kindness in recent days by plowing several kilometres of packed snow to help out the Peter family who have been snowed in for some time.

The Tribune’s own reporter Monica Lamb-Yorski went the extra mile and offered up her own act of kindness by listening to the troubles of the Peter family, when many others wouldn’t, myself included.

So, I guess it’s true — no act of kindness is too small.

Let’s continue to test that theory, shall we?

MORE VIEWPOINTS ‘Thinking’ letter stirs the pot Question of the week Editor: This is in response to the letter `New Thinking in the New Year.’

The comment that everyone should take off their `Horse Blinders’ could well describe the author.

Get properly informed.

Anyone can write fantastic stories to scare the common folk into thinking that mining will destroy the country.

In reality, a very small amount of mineral is removed, and everything else is put back.

The original top soil is landscaped with natural wildlife plant material common to that area.

Great care is taken with the tailings and expert (key word here being expert) environmentalists are the stewards of the finished process.

I think the most terrifying weapon in the world is the person who’s scare tactics warn of great disaster again and again.

Freedom of speech allows uneducated people to stir the pot. Williams Lake would not be the place it is today, without the responsible mining we are accustomed to.

Remember when one of the mines closed for a while?

Mortgages weren’t paid, homes were for sale but no buyers, and

businesses were closing and going under.

One year later, people lost their homes to the bank.

There were no jobs here.

In our community, mining is keeping you in the lifestyle you enjoy today.

Maybe you are the problem, and everyone else is fine.

There is a safe way to remove resources and at the same time maintain the air, water, soil, plant and animal values important to everyone.

Sharon Vinje Williams Lake

Predictions for 2014 and beyond Editor: As it is customary to look ahead at this time of year, here are my predictions for 2014 and a bit beyond: 1.) Minister of the Environment, Leona Aglukkaq, despite her predilections, will turn down Taseko Mines Ltd.’s New Prosperity Mine.

She will recognize not only that this is a very bad proposal environmentally, but that its much hyped economic benefits are not all that great and that approval will alienate First Nations irrevocably.

This is an expendable project for her.

2.) She will, however, ap-

prove the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline despite overwhelming public opposition, both from the B.C. public at large and First Nations.

Years of court challenges will follow, delaying the pipeline until other routes out have been established for the flow of Alberta tar sands dilbit.

Ultimately, this project will die a much deserved death.

3.) The Roger William case for rights and title will be decided by the Supreme Court of Canada with a judgement that finally declares Aboriginal title over a body of land.

A first for B.C. and Canada, this decision will have far reaching implications for the ‘Settler

Question’ throughout the country, the Commonwealth and beyond.

4.) Following the foregoing, the Tsihlqot’in Nation will move to establish control over much of their Caretaker Areas in ways which will renew culture, establish sovereignty, enable the development of local economies in a sustainable fashion, and that will ultimately bring significant benefit, both economic and social, to the entire region.

Happy New Year.

Thank you one and all for the many donations of food for Sandy Price. Thank you to Bev Spence Atkins and Tanya Meldrum for organizing the food and kitchen which they took upon themselves. Our family is very grateful.

Anna Price and family *** To all my family and friends, a huge thank you to each and every one of you for all the cards, visits, e-mails, phone calls, flowers, plants, goodies, fruit and especially the meals you sent while I was recovering from back surgery.

A special thank you to my sister-in-law, Adele, for going the extra “mile.” To my husband Karl, you have been terrific. With love and appreciation.

REACH A READER: 2014

Books for Babies instills love for reading Lil Mack Special to Tribune/Advisor Books for Babies is based on the philosophy that since children spend the first (and most critical) five or six years at home, parents need support in becoming effective “first” teachers.

Babies love to hear their parents’ voices.

Reading a story over and over is soothing and comforting both for baby and parent.

It can take a lot of patience to get through even a short picture book with a baby, but you’ll be rewarded with a child who’s received an excellent start to literacy — and life.

And, if infants and children are read to

often with joy, excitement, and closeness, they begin to associate books with happiness — and budding readers are created.

To this end the Kiwanis Books for Babies project has been giving a bag of four books to new parents since 2001.

Volunteer community partnerships are at the heart of the

program with Kiwanis providing funding, the maternity nurses at Cariboo Memorial Hospital delivering the book bags to parents of newborns, and the Cariboo Regional District Library giving out an extra book when parents register at the library. The Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy coordinates the pro-

gram.

Literacy supports lifelong learning, personal and cultural development, and contributes to healthy individuals and strong communities.

The earlier we start, the stronger our children become.

That’s why Books for Babies is so important and is one of our core programs.

Take a book home from Bright Red Bookshelf Claire Schreiner Special to Tribune/Advisor The Bright Red Bookshelf Program is a project of the Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy (CCPL).

We collect used children’s books for the bookshelves.

Volunteers with the Community Living Association clean and label these books.

Then they deliver

the books to the bookshelves every week.

There are thirteen Bright Red Bookshelves in public places in Williams Lake.

Children may read a book there or take a book home to enjoy.

These books are free to children and their families.

The bookshelves first came to the city in 2009.

Since then the number of books circu-

lated has grown each year to more than 4,000 books per year.

CCPL always needs more gently used children’s books for the bookshelves.

In April, we run a large Book Drive with the help of the elementary schools, the Public Library, Heartland Toyota and The Salt Jar. You can donate books at any of the bookshelves or phone

Claire at 398-4173.

The Bright Red Bookshelves are located at Yorston Clinic, Barton Insurance, Cariboo Eyecare Clinic, Boitanio Mall, Child Development Centre, Community Services Co-Op on 4th Ave, Immigration and Multicultural Services on First Ave., Ministry of Children and Family Development on Mackenzie Ave, Court Services (sec-

ond floor), the arena and the pool, CC Gymnastics Club, and Heartland Toyota.

Help CCPL bring books and children together.

Share a book with a child from one of the Bright Red Bookshelves.

Donate some children’s books that may be in need of a child.

Reading teaches empathy and expands the imagination.

Public asked to report unusual bat behaviour A disease that has killed millions of bats in eastern North America may arrive in British Columbia during the next five to 10 years.

White Nose Syndrome is a fungal disease that kills bats during their winter hibernation period. In order to improve the understanding of bat biology in B.C. and potentially increase their survival rate from the disease, provincial wildlife officials are urging the public to report any bats observed flying during daylight hours this winter, or sites where they are known or thought to hibernate.

Bats provide tremendous benefits because they are such effective consumers of pest insects, and their loss could lead to significant ecological and economic impacts.

White Nose Syndrome is named for the fuzzy white fungal growth on the nose, ears and wings of hibernating bats. First discovered in New York State in 2007, the disease has killed millions of bats in 22 states and five Canadian provinces.

The fungus is thought to have been introduced to North America and is primarily spread by batto-bat contact, although human spread by contaminated clothing and gear cannot be ruled out. It is currently not known to exist in bat colonies west of the Rockies.

Scientists in B.C. are working to understand what bats need, how to protect them from White Nose Syndrome and how to help populations survive should the disease arrive. One of the first steps is to better understand bat behaviour and habitat use in the winter.

British Columbians are urged to contact provincial government biologists at 250-3879500 if they see bats in the winter.

Information of particular importance is the location of winter bat roosting sites, unusual behaviour such as flying during the

day, and observation of dead or dying bats.

tion on how to help protect British Columbia’s bats, consult the

“Current Issues” section of the B.C. Wildlife Health webpage:

Timber king visits CRD directors Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Peter Arnold of Pioneer Log Homes admitted it’s made a difference.

Ever since the weekly HGTV series Timber Kings featuring his work place first aired on Jan. 5 people are recognizing him.

“I didn’t think that would happen, but it is,” Arnold laughed.

Arnold shared his Pioneer Log Homes story with the Cariboo Regional District board Friday and started off by saying he is not a celebrity.

“Yes we are on national TV, but at the end of the day we are just simple log home builders who have a passion for something.”

That passion transfers into making sure customers visit Williams Lake to see firsthand how Pioneer Log Homes operates, Ar-

Cariboo Regional District board Chair Al Richmond thanks Peter Arnold of Pioneer Log Homes for helping promote the Cariboo after Arnold talks to the board about the television series Timber Kings, featuring his work place. nold said.

“You get to meet them and that’s a big thing.

“You get a sense of what they like and from there it takes about a year before you would see them again.”

Something the show hasn’t shown so far, Arnold said, is the fact the company builds small homes and cabins too.

“We’re not just here for the rich and famous. We can work for anybody.”

A native of Switzerland, Arnold was building timber frame homes there when he decided to follow his dream to see Alaska’s Mount McKinley in 1993.

He ventured to Alaska, didn’t see much of

McKinley because of the fog.

On his way back, however, he came into Williams Lake and saw Pioneer Log Homes on the side of the road.

“Wow, those guys work with wood. This is wood. The rest is history,” Arnold recalled, adding every year the company takes in young apprentices from Switzerland.

One of the traditions Arnold brought from Switzerland is the roof speech.

“Whoever was the boss of the build talks about the history of the house, how he met the customer, how tough it was, how cold it was and how dirty it was,” Arnold explained.

“Sometimes it’s a bit emotional. There’s so much passion and love behind it and those people shed tears.

“You take that back to Williams Lake and it makes you work harder.”

BARNETT: Presents at CRD

SEE WHAT’S NEW FOR HOT WEATHER HOLIDAYS

Finding ways to grow the economy Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer In her latest to-do list from government, Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett said she’s been given the impossible dream.

“I’m supposed to go out and find ways to reverse the population decline in rural communities by growing economic opportunities and allowing people to remain and thrive in the communities where they have chosen to live,” Barnett told the Cariboo Regional District board Friday.

“It’s a huge task but not impossible. If we think of new innovative ideas and we’re not scared to share them, instead of saying no, we need to take a look at the long term ramifications on the positive side.”

Barnett said the long term impacts of the pine beetle infestation

Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett made a presentation to the CRD board last Friday about the need to grow the economy in rural B.C. have to be resolved.

“We know what’s happening in some of

our communities, especially Quesnel,” she said. “We know we all have to work together to resolve some of the impacts that will still happen two, five, 15 years from now.”

Last week she attended the Truck Loggers Association AGM and said it was the best attendance they have ever had and the most positive in many years.

“The industry feels positive that there are great opportunities out there with the dollar going down, with the price of lumber, with the technology they have,” Barnett said.

“One thing they are all concerned about is the fact that there are not many young people going into the forest industry, whether it’s to become a professional forester or a truck logger.”

It’s important to get the message out there, she said.

“We need to get these people trained younger, get forestry into our schools earlier, and get our youth into an industry that we know is always going to be there and is going to change.”

In relation to the Discovery Coast Ferry cancellation, Barnett said she continues to insist Route 40 remain in place for 2014.

“It is very difficult for our operators who already have bookings with people who are coming from all over the world to utilize that particular route,” she said.

The Tourism Industry of Canada has done an economic impact document and will be meeting with the Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure.

“The minister has not closed the door, I had a meeting with him yesterday,” she said. “He is listening and talking to people and all I can do

is say minister let’s keep it for 2014, let’s talk and work together to try and find a solution for 2015.”

Barnett said everyone knows the costs associated with ferries but that the bottom line is still the most important issue.

“Right now, however, we need to look at the cumulative economic impact that ferry cancellation is going to have. Your letters and your resolutions help,” Barnett said to the board. “There’s very strong opposition to that route being cancelled.”

Responding to concerns about the Agricultural Land Reserve raised by the CRD board, Barnett said the province has no intention of getting rid of the ALR, but needs to find ways to be more efficient, and more effective, while preserving agricultural land.

Non-Smoking Week National

January 19th to 25th, 2014

B.C. teens support ban on flavoured tobacco products

The Canadian Cancer Society, BC and Yukon, is calling for a ban on flavoured tobacco products in BC after a new poll showed overwhelming support from British Columbians.

The Angus Reid poll revealed that 81 per cent of BC teens between 15 and 18 years of age agree that the BC government should adopt legislation to ban all tobacco products with fruit and candy flavours as a measure to reduce tobacco use among youth. In addition, 74 per cent of British Columbians over the age of 18 support a ban. The survey of more than 1,100 teens and adults was conducted in December.

In the Northern Region, 84 per cent of teens support a ban.

“These numbers speak loud and clear: British Columbians want a ban in BC on flavoured tobacco products,” says Megan Klitch, Health Promotion Coordinator, Canadian Cancer Society, Northern Region. “We are urging the BC government to protect children from the predatory marketing practices of the tobacco industry and the products which, through their packaging and appearance, are aggressively targeted to youth.

It’s time, now during National Non-Smoking Week, to commit to a ban.”

In Canada, many types of tobacco products are heavily flavoured, including cigarillos (little cigars), water pipe tobacco, smokeless tobacco and

menthol cigarettes. Flavours include chocolate, mint, cherry, peach, strawberry, and other fruit and candy flavours that are appealing to youth. These flavours reduce the harsh effects of cigarette smoke, making it easier for youth who may be experimenting with smoking to become addicted to tobacco.

A national Youth Smoking Survey released last fall by the Propel Centre for Population Health Impact at the University of Waterloo found more than half (53%) of youth tobacco users in BC had used flavoured tobacco products. This equates to approximately 30,500 BC students.

“This is a real issue in BC

and we can make an equally real impact by implementing a ban,” explains Klitch. “We believe the BC government has made great strides to help reduce smoking rates in our province but we need to do more and be leaders in protecting youth from these deceptive products.”

Smoking rates in British Columbia are the lowest in the country at 13 per cent.

However, Tobacco use is still the leading cause of death and disease in BC, killing more than 6,000 British Columbians each year. Second-hand smoke is linked to the death of more than 100 British Columbians each year. In total, tobacco use costs the BC economy $2.3

Choosing to smoke is a life-or-death decision Get the facts: The truth about smoking 1. Tobacco kills about 37,000 Canadians a year.

2. There are over 4,000 dangerous chemicals in cigarettes, cigars and pipes smoke. Many of these chemicals are cancer-causing (carcinogen).

3. Smokers are at very high risk for many diseases: • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis) • Lung cancer • Cancer of the mouth, lip, throat and voice box • Cancer of the pancreas • Breast cancer • Cervical cancer • Stomach cancer • Liver cancer • Kidney cancer • Bladder cancer • Leukemia

• Coronary heart disease (e.g., heart attacks) • Circulatory problems • High blood pressure • High cholesterol (LDL) • Pneumonia • Influenza (the “flu”) • The common cold • Peptic ulcers • Tooth decay (cavities) • Gum disease • Osteoporosis • Sleep problems • Cataracts 4. Second-hand smoke causes most of the serious health listed above, and more. Physicians for a Smoke-Free Canada estimate that every year, second-hand smoke kills from 1100 - 7800 Canadians.

What’s in cigarettes Cigarettes are made from tobacco, a tall leafy plant that is grown almost everywhere in the world. The tobacco plant contains a drug called nicotine.

Thinking of quitting smoking?

Congratulations!

Nicotine is a deadly poison - it can kill a person in less than an hour if even a small amount is injected into the blood-stream.

Tobacco smoke contains very tiny amounts of nicotine that aren’t deadly, but are still very bad for your health.

Tobacco smoke also contains over 4,000 chemicals, many of which are known causes of cancer. Just a few of these chemicals are: • Carbon Monoxide (found in car exhaust) • Arsenic (rat poison) • Ammonia (found in window cleaner) • Acetone (found in nail polish remover) • Hydrogen Cyanide (gas chamber poison) • Napthalene (found in mothballs) • Sulphur Compounds (found in matches) • Lead

Of the 4.5 million Canadian Smokers, 16% are between the age of 15-19.

We DO NOT carry any tobacco products.

Becoming a non-smoker will improve your overall health and add years to your life.

Cariboo-Chilcotin Teachers’ Association Local 27 - B.C. Teachers’ Federation

• Volatile Alcohol • Formaldehyde (used as embalming fluid) • Butane (lighter fluid) When you smoke, all of these chemicals mix together and form a sticky tar. The tar sticks to clothing, skin, and to the cilia (tiny hairs) that line the insides of your lungs. The cilia help to clean out dirt and germs from your lungs. If the cilia are covered in tar, they can’t do their job properly, and germs, chemicals and dirt can stay in your lungs and cause diseases.

Second-hand smoke is also dangerous Even if you yourself don’t smoke, you can still get sick or die from tobacco. When you breathe the smoke from another person’s cigarette, it can be as bad as smoking cigarettes yourself. Learn more about what second-hand smoke does to your lungs.

billion annually.

The majority of new tobacco users are under the age of 18. Tobacco has no safe level of consumption, is highly addictive and is the only legal product that kills when used exactly as intended by its manufacturers. One-half of long-term regular smokers will die because of their smoking.

cancer and enhance the quality of life of people living with cancer. Thanks to our donors and volunteers, the Society has the most impact, against the most cancers, in the most communities in Canada.

Contest promotes multiculturalism Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Watery and uncertain on the outside and strong and brilliant as a sapphire on the inside, is the feeling evoked by the new logo that will grace the lakecity’s multiculturalism program brochure.

Grade 10 GROW student Mekayla McNeil won the lakecity’s Multiculturalism Program logo contest and was presented with her prize last week along with runner up Jeremy Kelly.

The contest was sponsored by the Canadian Mental Health Association Cariboo Chilcotin Branch with the support of the Cariboo Regional District and City of Williams Lake via the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society.

Mekayla’s logo will go on to compete in the CMHA’s regional multiculturalism logo contest in February with the winning logos from 100 Mile House and Prince George which are also holding contests.

Invitations to participate in the new logo contest were sent out to the Boys and Girls Club, all School District 27 schools as well as the alternative schools and band schools in the district, says Marilyn Livingston, who co-ordinates the CMHA Multiculturalism Program in Williams Lake with Tom Salley and Mar-

Nine senior students from the GROW program responded to the call for entries and participated in a workshop with games and discussions around judgements and assumptions.

“This diverse group gave an in-depth perspective to the issues on inclusion, belonging and anti-racism,” Livingston says.

The multiculturalism logo contest was held at Central Cariboo Arts and Culture

Centre on Nov. 26, 2013.

She says the room became surprisingly quiet as the enthusiastic artists started working on their logos, resulting in nine thoughtful entries that were judged on Jan. 17 by Mark Savard from Red Shreds and Scott Gordon from the Barking Spider, both youth focused businesses that donated prizes for the winners, Livingston says.

She says Mekayla’s logo will grace the local multiculturalism program brochure and other correspondence.

Magnets will also be made to promote multiculturalism.

the logo.

Mekayla says she chose the sapphire at the centre of her design because it is a symbol of internal energy and strength.

The sapphire is also historically recognized as the stone of wisdom, learning, spiritual truth and an ability to see beneath surface appearances to underlying truths and to utilize that knowledge.

The sapphire sits in the middle of an unconventional undulating earth image which gives the impression of a world in flux.

She chose to make the earth image framing the sapphire in an undulating, softer shape, rather than the hard round sphere that it appears from space.

“I was thinking of water,” Mekayla says.

“I just didn’t want to make the earth round because the diamond shape is already so straight edge.”

The Winter Market in Boitanio Mall isn’t as active as it was before Christmas, but there are still a few vendors holding the fort until spring and a busy little walking group trying to burn up calories after the holidays.

The mall walking group meets at 10:15 a.m. on Fridays and walks around the mall until 11 a.m. and then has coffee at the Dancing Goat, says walk leader Chris Hornby.

She says Brenda Norquay and Lori Wilson lead the warm up exercises then the group walks around the upper level of the mall three and a half times, which includes a few stairs or ramp between the upper levels.

The group then takes the elevator down to the lower level and does another three laps around that portion of the mall.

“Bring your running shoes for the walk,” Hornby says. “That is a safety factor.”

The group has about five regular mall walkers so far who encourage others who may feel more confident walking indoors out of the winter elements to join them, Hornby says.

normally participating include people selling homemade and hand crafted items such as baking, canning, dried

herbs, specialty foods such as First Nations icecream, pottery, jewellery, knitted and crochet items and more.

Mall walking a safer exercise alternative for many people “It takes about 40 minutes to do the walk.

Then for about $1 we can get two minutes in the massage chairs before we have coffee.”

About 18 vendors participated in the Winter Market between October and December.

That number is down to about eight regulars, but participation is expected to pick up again toward the end of February and March leading into spring.

The Winter Market runs in the mall until the end of May when the farmer’s markets resume in lakecity, Hornby says.

Vendors currently maintaining venues include Lori Wilson of Annie’s Attic collectibles; Daydrian Young from the Dancing Goat Coffee Shop and rabbitry; Vera Lehar from Natural Organic Skin Care products; and Kay Titford and Brenda Norquay from the mall walking group.

The Winter Market happens on Fridays in Boitanio Mall between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. on the second level of the mall outside the former Zellers store.

Each vendor pays $10 a day to set up their wares in the market.

Cariboo Festival banner flying Michelle Erlandson Special to Tribune/Advisor

Michelle Erlandson photo

Laura Zimmerman the Cariboo Festival’s creative writing director has no problem dressing up to promote the joy of reading and writing. The directors encourage people who enjoy the arts to participate in the festival this spring.

Have you driven past the mall on Oliver Street and noticed the Cariboo Festival banner?

Have you wondered why it is up the month of January?

The banner is up to remind the community to enter the local festival.

The Cariboo Festival committee is gearing up for another season of great performances and writing.

All the adjudicators have been lined up for band/instrumental, speech arts, creative writing, vocal/choral and piano.

The committee is encouraging the community to enter as it is such an awesome

opportunity to gather critique and have input from professionals in various disciplines.

Often, our committee hires adjudicators who have studied their art for years while achieving masters and doctorate degrees.

Yet, with all the knowledge that these adjudicators have gathered they also do not forget that they too were brought up in their art also participating in their own local festivals.

So, check out the syllabus which is available at the Open Book.

The deadline for entries is Feb. 11.

Entry forms are included in the syllabus with all the various dates listed for each discipline.

The final Honours

Glengarry Glen Ross on stage next week The Pulitzer Prize-winning and Tony Award-winning play, Glengarry Glen Ross, is coming to the Williams Lake Studio Theatre stage this month.

Revolving around four desperate real estate salesmen in 1980s era Chicago, Glengarry

Glen Ross follows the triumphs and debacles of its characters as they drag each other through deception, betrayal, catastrophe…and a burglary.

The play will be on the Studio Theatre stage Jan. 29 to Feb. 1, and Feb. 5 to 8.

Ladies only archery

Chess star returns from worlds Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Ten-year-old Cariboo chess prodigy Kai Richardson is now the second-ranked under-12 player in the province after a solid showing last month representing Team Canada at the World Youth Chess Championships.

Kai, who was the top-ranked under-10 Canadian player heading into the tournament — hosted this year in the United Arab Emirates and showcasing close to 2,000 players from around the world — finished 79th out of 198 competitors in his age group after posting a four-win, two-draw and fiveloss record.

“It was a good experience.

I’m satisfied [with the way I

played],” said Kai, who put in six hours a day studying chess books by grandmasters, watching matches and studying videos leading up to the two-week long event that began Dec. 18 and wrapped up Dec. 28.

“I could’ve played better, though. We didn’t quite get the time difference down. It was a 12-hour time difference from UAE time to Canada time, so that messes you up and makes you tired when you’re playing.”

And in a game where matches can last anywhere from three to five hours, Kai said staying mentally and physically sharp is of the utmost importance.

“Playing that many rounds takes a lot of stamina so you always have to prepare,” he said.

“You have to prepare not only mentally, but physically, just

like a sport.”

Kai, who travelled to the event with his mother, Aki Yamamoto, played 11 rounds of chess over the 10-day event. Aki added if he does qualify and decides to compete at another World Youth Chess Championship he’ll be better prepared.

“It’s a great experience even if he doesn’t do chess anymore just to be able to say he competed on that level and went through the whole process,” Aki said.

During the tournament Kai faced opponents from Canada, Bulgaria, China, France, Russia and Germany.

“Only two of my opponents spoke English,” Kai said. “But you don’t talk to them, so it doesn’t matter.

“After a while you both know what each other is thinking

beachcomber HOT TUBS

and you also know what you’re thinking, and you both try to prevent what you think the other person is going to do. There are openings you look for. You theorize them, and you’ve studied them before so you know what to do.”

Kai, as of Jan. 1, is now in the 12-and-under division — up from the 10-and-under age group he competed in at the WYCC. His World Chess Federation rating is currently 1,740.

After a bit of time off he said he plans to continue to play chess and will compete at the B.C. Open in Richmond this February.

“It’s going to be funny because all the players on Team Canada, pretty soon they’re going to be enemies,” he joked.

“We’ll be back here playing.”

Williams Lake archer Al Campsall is beginning a free, four-week introduction to archery for adult ladies, 18 and older, at the Bond Lake Road Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse.

It will run for four straight Tuesdays (Jan. 14, Jan. 21, Jan. 28 and Feb. 4). There is no registration fee. Interested participants just need to show up and instructors will provide the necessary archery gear. No experience is required.

Campsall said if you can’t attend one week, just attend the next.

Falcons swoop to second in Quesnel Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer The Lake City Falcons senior girls’ basketball team took second place over the weekend in a tournament at Quesnel’s Correlieu secondary.

After defeating Prince George’s Kelly Road Roadrunners and Northside of Vanderhoof, the Falcons set up a tilt with Prince George’s Cedars in the tournament final.

There, Montana Reid dropped 11 points, while Shaelyn Wintjes and Erika Weber each chipped in four, however, fell 59-32 to last year’s single-A provincial championship runner up.

Reid was named player of the game for the Falcons, along

with collecting a team all-star for the tournament.

“We found them [Cedars] to be a very strong team again this year,” said Falcons coach Brigette Peel.

“They just played a very strong defensive game. They created a lot of turnovers for us and quickly capitalized with a quick long pass to a fast break, and they just didn’t seem to miss on the fast breaks.”

Against Kelly Road in their tournament opener Reid scored 12 points while Annie Blois added 10 as the Falcons took a 63-27 win. Kaylee Billyboy was named player of the game by the opposing team’s coach for her outstanding rebounding in the contest.

Next, Lake City

downed Northside, 7432. Reid, again, was the game-high scorer with 20 points, while Weber potted 18 and Blois tallied 12. Blois was named player of the game for the Falcons.

“We now have 10 wins and six losses on record,” Peel said.

“We’re about twothirds of the way through the season and are still working hard to find each other’s strengths. We saw a lot more teamwork this weekend as every girl on the team scored in the first two games and it’s nice to see we are still improving that way.”

The Falcons now have a weekend off before heading to Maple Ridge from Jan. 31 to Feb. 1 for a tournament.

Northern Cougars second The Northland Dodge Northern Female Midget AAA Cougars completed a successful league weekend of home games in Prince George Jan. 1719.

The Northern Cougars played the West Coast Avalanche three times, winning all three and taking six out of six possible points.

Both teams were in a battle for second place in the league, however, the results now place the Northern Cougars

decisively in second place in the six-team B.C. Hockey Female Major Midget League standings.

Friday the Cougars beat the Avalanche, 4-1, with Williams Lake players defenceman Chantelle Beadman-Rolph and assistant captain Tessa Hare scoring in the winning effort.

Saturday the Cougars downed the Avalanche, 3-1, in a close game, before edging the team once more, 4-3, Sunday morning with

Hare, again, tallying in the win.

Coaches Mario Desjardins and Stew Malgunas said they were pleased with the team’s performance in all three games.

“The Avalanche brought their ‘A’ game for the weekend and we responded effectively,” Desjardins said.

The Northern Cougars now have a twoweek break before travelling to a showcase tournament in Langley from Feb. 7-10.

I tried everything and finally after taking a specially processed shark cartilage I was pain free in 2 weeks. After this experience I realised I could #1 help many of those 5 million Canadian that suffer every day and night and I started to sell this same type of shark cartilage and helped hundreds of thousands of men and women to have less pain or no pain at all. Nick A. Jerch, President of Bell Lifestyle Products. <Many people on our website write: “Can walk again for hours”;”Can climb stairs without hanging on to railing”;”First time in 15 years can sleep at night” Rheumatoid pain in joints down 90%, same for my sister…hundreds of testimonials all with full names and towns.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

This hi new Q50 llooks k great, has a wonderful interior, power to spare and solid handling dynamics.

Zack Spencer

Visit the Q50 photo gallery at DrivewayBC.ca

2014 Infiniti Q50 challenges the old order Infiniti has had a bit of an identity crisis over the past year with a wholesale change in the way it names its products.

Gone is the JX crossover, it’s called the QX60 now and the G 37 sedan has been replaced with the Q50 sedan. Q signifies for cars and QX for crossovers or SUVs. The outgoing G37 was already a very worthy on-road performer but a bit too simplistic in the inside. Now, Infiniti has taken things up a notch with the Q50, adding a dynamic look, sumptuous interior and class leading technology.

Looks It could be argued that the current BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class are a bit conservative, while this Q50 and the major competitor, Lexus IS, are much edgier. This is especially true with the front grille. The rest of the Q50 is nicely sculpted, with flowing lines and an almost elegant rear end. Sold as a base model, sport trim, all wheel drive (AWD), premium, and even a hybrid, there is a broad market for this sedan.

Starting at $37,500 and ramping up to the AWD sport model at $49,950, there is a substantial discount with the Q50 when you compare it to a similarly equipped BMW. The base model comes with 17-inch wheels but most of the higher trim levels are equipped with 19-inch wheels. The car seen here is the AWD premium model starting at $43,400.

Inside The Q50 centre console is very attractive with two screens placed for radio functions and the second for the

navigation ($1,400 option) opt for the AWD model, and backup camera. The which is a good choice way the lower screen is due to the higher level incorporated is first rate; of interior amenities. it looks like a high quality In addition, the Q50 is iPad that sits flush with the first car to have a the dash, while the higher steer-by-wire system screen is recessed for easier that is customizable and use in bright light. this system is optional Direct Adaptive The only problem with on the AWD models and Steering has its this system is the time it standard on the sport takes to boot-up when critics but for me, the versions of the Q50. you start the car over 30 Direct Adaptive Steering Q50 feels like it is seconds to access the radio has its critics but for an extension of the and other features.

The transmission is a 7-speed automatic that puts the power to either the rear wheels, or all wheels, depending on the trim selected. Most Canadians will

Verdict The benchmark in the premium compact sedan market has been the BMW 3 Series but the gap is narrowing. This new Q50 looks great, has a wonderful interior, power to spare and solid

handling dynamics.

On price, the BMW 328i AWD is the closest and starts at $46,200 but is equipped with a 241hp 4-cylinder. The direct competitor on power is the much more expensive 335is AWD. The Lexus IS350 AWD is another premium offering from Japan, and it starts at a very competitive $44,000. As much as the Japanese automakers like to challenge the German makers, they really end up competing with each other.

Yes, this is a worthy car but the one thing you cannot factor into the buying decision is the badge appeal that storied brands like Mercedes, BMW and Audi provide.

What is your favourite brand of car and what model specifically do you like?

Please explain why you have made that decision.

Safety Tip: When extreme winter road conditions hit, it’s a good idea to think about whether you even need to get behind the wheel.

If you have the option, consider public transit or carpool with some who has a vehicle prepared for the conditions. Also consider leaving for work just a little later to allow crews to clear the roads.

Five fun coupes to cruise in for singles

By Alexandra Straub

So, you’re not married.

That’s okay!

You don’t have kids? No worries.

You pretty much have the pick of the litter when it comes to buying a car.

Why? Because you don’t necessarily have specific requirements that need to be met when selecting a vehicle.

Meaning, you don’t need to consider having a large enough backseat to fit car seats, unless you want a big back seat for other reasons. Like, you have a dog that weighs as much as an adult. Or you don’t need four doors because you’re pretty much the only one going to be inside the cabin at any given time.

Unless your profession requires you to haul around equipment or gear, you don’t have to buy a crossover, minivan, sedan or SUV if you don’t want to.

That said, many singles I know decide to get something a little less “practical” in the grand scheme of things. Less practicality is usually spelled with five letters: coupe.

So, to those individuals who are the alpha of their one-person wolf pack, here are a few coupes under $30K to consider.

Honda Accord Coupe: Base MSRP $26,400

I’m starting off with the Accord because it’s a cool car. The current generation

has so much going for it and definitely has developed more personality in the redesign. You have the option of two engines: a more economical 2.4L 4-cylinder or a more powerful 3.5L V6. Either way, you can get them equipped with a 6-speed manual or a CVT transmission. Only the EX-L Navi trim with the V6 has the option of a 6-speed automatic transmission.

No matter how you slice it, you’re getting a great car.

Better yet, it has a decent cargo capacity of 379L so you could easily dump your hockey gear inside.

The interior is spacious and comfortable, and heck, it looks good.

MINI Coupe/Roadster: Base MSRP $25,950/$28,900

With room for two, even the base model of MINI Coupe or Roadster is a hoot. Specs-wise, it has the least impressive engine of the lot (only putting out 121 horsepower,) but that can be overlooked because

of via driving dynamics. It has one of the best manual gearboxes for a car of its size and has an abundance of pep.

They’re not cheap, though.

So it has that working against it in some regards.

And you could argue that a Mazda MX-5 is a better value (you won’t be wrong) but it’s still loads of fun.

Dodge Challenger: Base MSRP $26,995

If you’re driving a Dodge Challenger, you’re getting noticed. You don’t even need to have the grunt and roar of the SRT’s 6.4L V8 HEMI to turn heads. Inside and out, this two-door has style and power. The base SXT trim comes equipped with a 3.6L V6 and 305 horsepower.

Kia Forte Koup: Base MSRP $20,550

For just over $20K, the Kia Forte Koup is a solid value.

And it’s not a bad looking car either. Inside, the

Honda Accord Coupe. interior is well finished and isn’t cheap.

Furthermore, you have many great standard amenities that come with the base model like 16-inch alloy wheels, fog lights,

heated front seats, remote keyless entry, air conditioning and more.

VW GTI: Base MSRP $29,375 The 3-door VW GTI is one of my favourite cars.

The front-wheel, German engineered bundle of excitement has poise and

pizzazz, along with a fabulous interior and a tried and tested engine. What’s great about the GTI is that it works for all ages. You could be 16 and driving it, or 60, and you’d still look good. You wouldn’t look out of place and people would give you nods of

approval. Granted, the current generation is on its way out and the seventh generation (2014 model year) is coming soon. So if you want a killer deal on a 2013, now’s about as good of a time as any. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

Off-road performance with on-road comforts

By Ian Harwood The 2014 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid is on a quest, to get your family where you need to go on as little fuel as possible.

Looks: One of the biggest changes last year was the switch from body-on-frame to a unibody construction.

This reduced the overall weight, which makes a big difference on the fuel economy.

The shape and design characteristics of this truck have changed, much smoother lines, and more aerodynamic.

I remember the first Pathfinder introduced in 1986 and aimed at capturing some of the Toyota 4runner buyers.

It looked promising but never completely took off.

I think the focus was more on the off-road when it should have been more on-road with the ability to travel off-road.

This version has done this, taking design cues and comfort from the Nissan Rogue and creating a larger crossover capable of transporting seven.

In The Cab: My tester was the Platinum edition.

It came equipped with leather seats with 8 way power adjustability, 4 way power for the front passenger, EZ flex seating system with 2nd row 60/40 split fold-flat bench

Drives-UCrazy Curb Lane Crazies Did somebody change the curb lane into the fast lane and not tell me?

A day never passes when I don’t see drivers zipping down major drags in the curb lane, cutting in at the last second to avoid piling into a parked car. As soon as they’re past the obstacle they’re back in the gutter lane, spraying every poor pedestrian along the way.

What drives-u-crazy. kmorgan@blackpress.ca

It has the ability to drive down a gravel road or up to the ski hill but Nissan has made sure it is also as comfortable as a road car and is fuel-efficient as it can be.

seat, and 3rd row 50/50 split fold flat reclining bench seat.

The leather wrapped steering wheel is heated and is a nice feature.

There is plenty of wood tone trim but it is not overdone, giving it a rich feel.

Bose audio system with 13 speakers, AM/FM/CD, SiriusXM, auxiliary audio input jack, USB connection, streaming audio via Bluetooth, steering wheel mounted audio controls and speed sensitive volume control and just some of the comforts you will find in the Pathfinder Platinum.

The around view monitor uses four cameras to create a composite image from above and displays it on the touch screen monitor.

This helps show the vehicle’s position relative to the lines around the parking space and guides you in easily.

Safety first: Nissan’s advanced airbag

system include, dual stage front airbags, driver and front passenger seat mounted side impact, and roof mounted curtain side impact airbags with rollover sensor.

Traction control (TSC) and vehicle dynamic control (VDC) are standard on all models.

Power: The engine is a 2.5-litre 4 cylinder with a 15kw, power regenerating electric motor, powered by lithium-ion cells and a dual clutch system that transfers power from the electric motor and the engine. This system generates 250 hp.

The transmission is Xtronic CVT (continuously variable transmission) The Allmode 4x4 I-system allows

select ability between 2WD, Auto, or 4WD lock.

An independent front strut and multi-link rear gives the vehicle a comfortable ride.

Pump frequency: 7.8/7.1 L/100 km (city/ highway) as tested Warranty support: Basic coverage 3 year/ 60,000 kms Powertrain 5 years/100,000 kms Corrosion surface 3 years/ 60,000 kms Roadworthy: This vehicle does remind me of the Nissan Rogue.

It is larger but feels very similar and that’s a good thing. I think Nissan is heading in the right direction with this vehicle.

If studies show limited use off-road, then why spend

money making this an off-road vehicle?

It has the ability to drive down a gravel road or up to the ski hill but Nissan has made sure it is also as comfortable as a road car and as fuel-efficient as it can be.

Verdict: I think Nissan thought outside of the box on this one and was not afraid to start fresh and create something new.

A concept sedan worthy of a Formula One race track Infiniti has revealed its Q50 Eau Rouge concept at the 2014 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. It’s a high-performance design concept based on Infiniti’s Q50 premium sports sedan, that draws inspiration for aerodynamic design from the technical collaboration between Infiniti and four-time Formula One World Champions Infiniti Red Bull Racing. Major bodywork components have been redesigned with aerodynamics in mind and manufactured carbon fibre. Q50 Eau Rouge is lower and wider – only the roof and door profiles remain unchanged from the production Q50.

The Infinity Q50 Eau Rouge concept. the aerodynamic styling approach taken by their colleagues at Infiniti Red Bull Racing.

“From our shared passion for performance with Infiniti Red Bull Racing grew a collective desire to produce a vision of what a high-performance Infiniti Q50 could look like,” said Albaisa.

“The design has a num-

ber of distinctive Formula One inspired touches. In particular, the sculpted front wing assembly and the rear aerodynamic packaging take their cues from the RB9 race car,” added Albaisa.

The Driveway team is at the show and will report on the highlights next week. keith.morgan@drivewaybc. ca

Prenatal classes begin at TRU Angie Mindus Tribune Staff Writer Two local childbirth educators are teaming up to offer prenatal and childbirth preparation classes to women and their families in the coming weeks.

Beginning this Saturday, Jan. 25 with a prenatal-in-a-day course, Karen Irvine and Jordan Davis are offering the classes through Thompson Rivers University, Williams Lake Campus.

“Education is the key to navigating your childbirth experience in a positive way, and we want families here to have the best possible outcomes,” says Davis, whose training includes childbirth and breastfeeding education.

Irvine, herself a former maternity nurse and prenatal instructor, adds she is looking forward to sharing the

Childbirth educators Karen Irvine (left) and Jordan Davis are teaming up to deliver prenatal classes to expectant families starting this weekend at Thompson Rivers University in Williams Lake. most current, researchbased information on the healthy, natural process of birth.

“We want families to be excited about the childbirth experience,” says Irvine.

The women are offering one-day, prenatal-in-a-day classes as

well as a more in-depth childbirth preparation series, which takes place over four evening sessions.

The one-day sessions are available Jan. 25, March 24 and March 29.

The series is being offered twice; Feb. 12

to March 5 and again April 8 to 29.

Prenatal-in-a-day is a one-day workshop for expectant parents to get a general understanding of the process of healthy pregnancy and birth. The workshop will cover labour and delivery as well as teach

breastfeeding basics.

The childbirth preparation series is a fourweek evening series that will cover everything discussed in the prenatal-in-a-day course, but with more time for added information and class participation plus a virtual tour of the hospital and a visit from a family physician who will be available for questions.

Davis says prenatal classes not only educate and prepare families for a new baby, but also offer the added bonus of allowing expectant families to meet other families in the same stage of life.

“It’s so important to have that support from peers,” Davis says.
