Man arrested for Revelstoke snowmobiles theft after RCMP chase After late-night stop and chase, Sicamous RCMP catch, charge Enderby man with theft of truck, trailer and sleds stolen in Revelstoke.

Police believe an accomplice successfully fled the scene.

Aaron Orlando

editor@revelstoketimesreview.com

Sicamous RCMP have arrested and charged a 32-year-old Enderby man following a police chase early Sunday morning involving a stolen truck, trailer and the two snowmobiles it was hauling. The vehicle had been stolen from a motel parking lot in Revelstoke just hours earlier.

An officer on a late night patrol in Sicamous set up specifically to target sled thefts noticed the truck on the move eastbound at about 3:20 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 23.

When he attempted to pull the truck over, the truck sped off, eventually taking a dead-end side road where it slid into a ditch.

The man fled, but was tracked by a police dog to a nearby prop-

erty where he was found hiding in a motorhome.

Sgt. Dave Dubnyk of the Sicamous RCMP detachment said the man “is known to the police.”

The man remains in custody until a B.C. Provincial Court appearance in Salmon Arm. The truck and trailers were registered to an owner from Saskatchewan.

Dubnyk said the intervention was the result of a police strategy that focused on information-sharing between local RCMP detachments and beefed up late-night patrols.

In the Sicamous area, police are targeting any vehicles hauling snowmobiles in the hours between sunset and sunrise.

“Everybody gets checked,” Dubnyk said, adding the response

from the sledding community has been positive.

He estimated police have checked “hundreds” of trucks and trailers in the initiative this snow season and will continue until the snow melts.

Dubnyk said it was his feeling the individual was delivering the sled to someone else, and didn’t feel he was directly involved in chopping up sleds. He added that RCMP criminal analysts continue to investigate.

Dubnyk said police also believe an accomplice was trailing the stolen truck in a “small car.” However, when the chase started, the small car disappeared en route towards the Enderby area; the man who was apprehended denied there was another vehicle involved in the case, police said.

“That’s part of our investigation for sure,” Dubnyk said. “We are looking to determine where this particular sled and trailer were going.”

Dubnyk vowed continued enforcement this season, including the ongoing bait sled initiative. So far, police haven’t had any attempted thefts of the bait sled unit – a surveillance equipped trailer designed to lure in and catch thieves. It’s modelled after the bait car program.

Police remind snowmobile owners to take precautions like parking your vehicle in a well-lit place, using wheel locks, using alarms and disabling your vehicle’s motor.

The identity of the man and the exact charges against him were unknown by press time. He was originally scheduled to appear in Provincial Court in Salmon Arm on Feb. 25, but that appearance was delated until March 4, which is after the Times Review press

time.

(Coincidentally, another man appeared in Salmon Arm court on Feb. 25 facing an almost identical series of charges, but Sicamous RCMP confirmed it wasn’t the individual in question.)

Sicamous RCMP are seeking charges of breach of probation, theft of a motor vehicle over $5,000 and possession of stolen property over $5,000. The Crown prosecutor has not yet decided on approval of the charges. Police are not yet releasing the man’s name.

None of the police allegations against him have been proven in court.

Despite ongoing security partnerships between Revelstoke police and snowmobile stakeholders like accommodation providers, snowmobile thefts have continued to trouble the community. The expensive machines are often stolen along with valuable trucks and trailers.

Roadside suspensions credited for cut in alcohol deaths Tom Fletcher Black Press

VICTORIA – Roadside suspensions and vehicle seizures for drivers blowing as low as 0.05 per cent blood alcohol have helped cut B.C. drinking and driving deaths by half, Attorney General

Suzanne Anton said Monday.

Government statistics show average fatalities from drinking and driving have fallen to 54 a year from a previous fiveyear average of 112, since the law took effect in September 2010. Anton said the program is so successful that other provinces are moving in the same direction.

Anton wouldn’t comment on court challenges to the program, which imposes penalties on people who test in the “warn” range below 0.08, where they are subject to impaired driving charges.

“If there have to be changes made to it, we will be making those, but the program is good, it saves lives and that’s

what’s important,” Anton said.

The “immediate roadside prohibition” program replaced most impaired driving charges with administrative penalties, including a three-day driving ban and a $200 administrative fee for those who blow between 0.05 and 0.08, if the police officer has reason to believe the

driver is impaired.

For those who blow in the “impaired” range of 0.08 or higher, police have the option of imposing a 90-day driving ban, a $500 penalty and impounding the vehicle for 30 days instead of laying a charge. Towing and impounding a vehicle can result in a $700 bill, and a $1,400 mandatory “responsible driver program” may also be required before the driver’s licence is returned.

The government terms the measure “Alexa’s Law,” after four-year-old Alexa Middelaer, who was feeding horses at the roadside in Delta when she was struck by an impaired driver and killed in 2008.

“After decades of stagnant progress on reducing the number of preventable deaths caused by drinking and driving, as a community we’ve made significant and sustained changes,” said Laurel Middelaer, Alexa’s mother, who has been an advocate on the issue since the tragedy.

Anecdotally, there has been a dramatic drop in the number of drunk driving cases before the court in Revelstoke.

Defendants facing impaired driving cases were once the most common criminal matters before the Provincial Court here, but – based on observations by our court reporter – the number of cases on the weekly docket have dried up significantly since 2010.

While those facing discipline under the new roadside prohibition scheme face a flurry of administrative charges, a criminal charge under the old system also incurred significant costs, such as lawyer fees and time off work for the typically several appearances required to settle the matter.

In a background conversation, at least one local lawyer admitted the change has had a significant impact on their business.

New Arrow Lakes ferry taking shape, scheduled for May maiden voyage Alex Cooper Black Press

At some point this month, there will be a new sight on the Arrow Lakes. The new Galena-Shelter Bay ferry, which is scheduled to go for its first test drive at some point in the coming weeks.

It was amazing to think that was the case when I took a tour of the ferry last Sunday, Feb 23. near Nakusp The deck was crowded with storage bins, which hold loads of piping waiting to be laid. The bathrooms still needed to be installed and there were no walls in the staff areas.

At the control deck, the windows still needed to be cut out of the metal framing and the glass installed. The control panels weren’t in place either, nor was the ship’s mast, which sat freshly painted in a large building on site.

Down below the deck, big 700metre spools of wire were stacked together waiting to be installed — adding to the countless of kilometres that had already been laid. Sparks flew as welders worked away. The watertight doors that prevent flooding from one room to the next still needed to be installed. Everything still needed to be painted white.

A pirate flag stood aloft where the mast will be — waiting to be replaced by the B.C. flag when it goes in service.

From my untrained eyes, it looked like there was still lots left to do, but for John Harding, the owner of WaterBridge Steel, the company contracted to build the new ship, these are all details and it will all come together pretty quickly now.

Quick enough that pretty soon the 80-vehicle ferry will be plying the waters around Nakusp on a regular basis as they get everything ready for its maiden voyage on Friday, May 16 — just in time for the first long weekend of summer.

Work on the ferry has been proceeding seven days a week since the summer, except for a 10-day break for Christmas.

I visited the ferry on a Sunday afternoon, when only about 25 employees were on site; on a busy weekday there are 50 workers — a mix of electricians, mechanics, welders, pipe fitters and more.

They work 10 days straight, enjoy four days off, and then get back to it. Unless you’re John Harding, in which case days off are a luxury — as is time to go see your family in Prince George.

The ferry has come a long way since July, when the hull was launched. Since then the superstructure has been built on top of the vessel’s deck and almost all the mechanical and electrical work has been done. The two giant engines that operate the propeller units that drive the ship have been installed; one at each end of the ferry. They’re both functional, Harding told me.

The tour started in the old mill building that was transformed into a giant shop space. Four massive steel wedges lay on sliding platforms, awaiting transportation to the Shelter Bay and Galena Bay landings, where they will replace the existing ramps. Four more smaller ones still need to be constructed.

On the ferry, the deck has been turned into a makeshift storage space, dominated by a crane that sits in the middle. Harding showed me the various rooms that will turn into bathrooms and storage space.

He pointed out the giant mufflers that extend from the engine rooms below to about four metres above the deck.

We walked inside the crew quarters, where a small kitchen space and sitting area will be set up. The crew will be able to enjoy their meals while gazing out at the view, but for now the windows were boarded up.

We walked to the upper level where the control room will be.

Right now it was just an empty, windowless shell. A welder was up there getting ready to begin cutting out the window frames. The control panel still needed to be installed. It will be pretty simple for the captain

once it’s in place — face one way when heading to Shelter Bay, then turn around and steer the ship back to Galena Bay. The real interesting part of the tour was below deck — an area most people will never see. Here, rows and rows of cables extended from control panels in the electrical room and ran through the ceiling, spreading like tentacles throughout the ship.

How many miles of wiring are on the ship, Harding asked an electrician.

The best he could do was guess.

Each spool contained 700 metres of wire and there were several of them sitting around. The wires ran all over the ship and up to the control room four stories above. There was a dozen cables lying side-by-side, and that was just directly above us.

We walked into one of the engine rooms, where a water-tight door lay on the ground waiting to be installed. The engine was in place and working; pipes that transfer

heat from the engine throughout the ship were being insulated. One more room down lay the propeller motor. It was a similar sight at the other end of the ship, where a second engine was installed.

The spaces were cramped, with piping snaking around the rooms.

“Watch your feet,” I was warned, as I scrambled over some chains lying on the ground. Harding pointed out escape hatches that led to the deck above for crews to use to get out of danger.

With launch day approaching, inspectors have been visiting the new ferry on a regular basis. That will be the case for the next few months until the ferry does its first

run on May 16. Until then, the ferry will be taken up and down the lake for test drives and the crew will be trained. Most systems are automated and crew levels will remain the same with the new ferry as with the old ones, Harding told me.

Starting in April they’ll begin training the crews on the new boat.

It will be painted white and the pirate flag that adorns the ship will be replaced with a B.C. flag.

On May 16, the new landing decks will be put in place and the ferry service is expected to make a seamless transition from the old to the new.

There’s no ribbon cutting planned, yet.

VICTORIA – Winners of next November’s local elections will serve four years on councils and school boards.

Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development Coralee Oakes said Tuesday she will introduce legislation shortly to extend local government terms from three years to four. The change is to take effect in time for elections next fall.

Oakes said the change comes after the Union of B.C. Municipalities supported it at their convention last September. The issue has been debated many times and

has been divisive over the years, with some rural politicians arguing against extending the commitment for jobs with little pay.

Oakes, who served two terms on Quesnel city council before being elected to the B.C. legislature last year, said she had her own doubts about it when it was debated during that time. But she has made up her mind.

“The reason why provinces across Canada have moved to four years is it provides greater certainty in communities to move those very important projects forward, things such as infrastructure improvements,” Oakes said. “It provides opportunities for local government officials to

understand their projects and to carry them through.”

The change would mean the next municipal election would be held in 2018, on a schedule that follows provincial elections by one year. Oakes said there was no intent to avoid having both elections at the same time, and she is acting in response to the UBCM’s vote to go ahead.

Asked if the legislation would include a “Rob Ford clause” to remove politicians who misbehave while in office, Oakes said the ministry is examining changes to the oath of office to “provide more tools” to deal with such situations.

A two-month RCMP investigation has culminated in the arrest of a Revelstoke man for the Dec. 19, 2013 robbery of the Revelstoke Shell gas station.

RCMP executed a search warrant on a local residence on Feb. 25, where they arrested a 28-yearold man.

Police spokesperson Cpl. Thomas Blakney said the man was taken into custody without incident. He described the arrest as “co-operative.”

A Crown prosecutor has approved a charge of robbery.

Police allege the man is the individual who entered the Shell station just before midnight on Dec. 19 and demanded money from the attendant, who obliged. No weapon was involved, although the attendant was concerned the man had a concealed weapon.

Cpl. Blakney said RCMP made the arrest thanks to public tips to police and to Crimestoppers. The day after the robbery, police appealed for public help and circulated a security camera image of the robber.

This led to a number of anonymous tips.

The man has been released from custody on conditions. He is due to appear in Revelstoke court on May 14, 2014.

Regarding his release from custody, Cpl. Blakney commented: “We don’t see this person as a concern to public safety.”

Bed & breakfast changes draw pause for clarification Aaron Orlando

editor@revelstoketimesreview.com

Changes to zoning rules that will allow bed & breakfasts in residential neighbourhoods in Revelstoke took a step forward following a public hearing last week. However, city staff will be responding to questions from stakeholders in the coming weeks before the change is adopted.

The changes introduced in January were triggered by a bylaw review that found almost all existing bed & breakfasts were legally non-conforming due to a past oversight in the bylaw.

Proposed new rules include new parking requirements, allowing more rooms per bed & breakfast, and disallowing secondary

suites in homes that have bed & breakfast operations.

Revelstoke Chamber of Commerce executive director Judy Goodman was one five members of the public who commented before council on Feb. 25.

She felt clarifying the rules is “a good thing.”

“I don’t thing it’s that drastic of a change,” Goodman told the Times Review.

The Chamber represents businesses including bed & breakfasts, as well as accommodations businesses like hotels and motels that pay commercial taxation rates.

She said clarifying the situation would aid both.

City development services

manager Dean Strachan said he’ll be responding to questions raised at the hearing and council meeting in a report to city council on Mar. 11.

There was some confusion regarding the distinction between bed & breakfast operations and vacation rentals.

The former requires the owner to live in the residence and provide breakfast.

The City of Revelstoke is planning to review vacation rental policies this spring. In April of 2013, the city floated the idea of ‘tourist home’ zones in Revelstoke, but the idea fell to the wayside with the departure of the former planning director later last year.

Should CSRD politicians vote themselves a pay raise?

TRACY HUGHES Black Press

The Columbia Shuswap Regional district directors are wading into the political minefield that involves their own paycheques.

The board has unanimously agreed to review the current remuneration bylaw, including the method of payment to the elected directors.

Rhona Martin, area E (Rural

Sicamous) director, said there was significant discussion at the committee level about the issue and how remuneration rates compare with other regional districts.

Currently CSRD directors are paid in a variety of ways. The CSRD chair earns $23,114 per year in addition to the $11,128 which is the remuneration collected by all the directors of the board. Electoral area directors are also compensated $4,576 per year for travel costs.

Directors are also paid to attend a variety of meetings, including CSRD board meetings, at a rate of $188 per meeting. Other more localized meetings are paid out at a rate of $59 per meeting.

Directors are also paid to attend conventions like the Union of BC Municipalities at a rate of $188 per day including travel time to and from the event. Mileage costs are also paid out at a rate of 15 cents per kilometre.

New container recycling system starts Jeff Nagel Black Press

A new container recycling plant will be built in the Lower Mainland this year as industry stewardship group Multi-Material B.C. takes over responsibility for an expanded blue box recycling program.

MMBC on Thursday named Green By Nature EPR, a firm formed by three recycling industry partners, to handle the processing of packaging and printed paper province-wide.

Cascades Recovery, Emterra Environmental and Merlin Plastics are the three companies that have joined forces to invest $32 million building the new container recycling plant, a new material recovery facility in Nanaimo, as well as other infrastructure.

Green By Nature won’t handle the curbside collection of packaging – that will still be done mostly by local municipalities, except for a few locations where new collectors are yet to be named.

Besides new plants, existing

operations will also be used.

A material recovery facility in Surrey run by Emterra will help sort materials, and the plastics recovered are expected to be processed at Merlin Plastics’ plant in Delta.

A site for the new container plant hasn’t yet been revealed.

“The entire system is designed to shift everything into two streams,” said MMBC managing director Allen Langdon. “One is for fibres – newspapers, cardboard and printed papers – and the other for containers.”

Green By Nature expects to employ 570 workers in all.

The new system – slated to launch May 19 – promises to add 10 new types of containers or other materials to what households can place in blue boxes.

The new categories include milk cartons, foam packaging, plant pots, aluminum foil packages, plastic clamshell containers and drink cups.

Langdon said a public education campaign will launch in late April.

In most communities, glass bottles and jars will be directed to depots, instead of curbside pickup, but Langdon said there are exceptions, as some municipalities have opted to continue segregated glass pickup.

MMBC says it needs to keep glass separate from paper and other recyclables to avoid contamination that slashes the value of materials.

“There will be a much better chance of it being recycled,” Langdon said, noting 90 per cent of glass going into blue boxes actually now ends up going to landfills.

MMBC’s operations are expected to cost $85 million per year and be fully funded by its member businesses, which include major retailers and consumer product makers.

The stewardship group is targeting a 75 per cent recycling rate, up from 50 per cent province-wide now.

A tax by any other name is still a tax

MLA REPORT

BY NORM MACDONALD Whether it is a fee, a rate or a service charge, if you are paying it to fund a government program, you might as well call it what it is: a tax. Premier Clark might claim that her budget didn’t raise taxes, but we all know that costs to taxpayers for government services are still rising.

For instance, BC Hydro rates are

going up by 28% over the next 5 years.

While the Minister of Energy will tell you that the reason for the rate increase is to repair aging infrastructure, the truth is that much of that increase is going directly to provincial revenue.

Here’s how it works. In order to ‘balance’ the budget, the BC Liberals simply require crown corporations such as BC Hydro to pay a specific ‘dividend’ to the province as the corporation’s only shareholder. It does not matter whether or not the corporation actually has enough profit to pay the dividend; the dividend must simply be paid.

The only way for BC Hydro to make this payment to government’s coffers is to raise your hydro rates. That’s a tax.

We all know that we have to contribute in order to fund government programs; we don’t like paying taxes, but we know we have to work together to make society function. And we agree that those

who are most able to pay should pay more than those who are struggling.

But the BC Hydro rate ‘tax’ hits hardest those who can least afford to pay.

Every person, regardless of income, will pay the same rate increase, and for many in our communities this is just too much to bear.

So when you hear Premier Clark and her Minister of Finance claim that there are no new taxes and we have a balanced budget, keep in mind the path we are taking to get there.

In the case of BC Hydro, we are heavily taxing individuals who have no other option to heat and light their homes.

And we are throwing away our established principles of tax fairness just to serve the Premier’s political agenda.

Norm Macdonald is the MLA for Columbia River–Revelstoke |

Farnworth first in for B.C. NDP leadership TOM FLETCHER Black Press

After finishing a close second to Adrian Dix in 2011, Mike Farnworth says he is running for NDP leader to correct the party’s mistakes of 2013.

Offering “a progressive alternative that can win an election,” the longtime Port Coquitlam MLA referred Sunday to the NDP campaign choice to run mostly upbeat advertising to promote a platform with few specifics.

“Under my watch, the B.C. NDP will never fight an election with one

N EWS hand tied behind its back,” Farnworth said in an opening statement released by his campaign. “We’ll be tough on the issues and hold the B.C. Liberals to account for their disastrous record, while being clear about what we would do differently.”

Farnworth also gave a hint of a more pro-development stance for the party, which has opposed oil pipelines and offered lukewarm support to liquefied natural gas development.

“Under my leadership, the B.C.

NDP will stand firmly for a strong and diversified economy that provides family-supporting jobs and builds shared prosperity,” Farnworth said.

Dix won the leadership by a narrow margin in 2011, after several rounds of voting left Farnworth with 48% of participating party members.

After a string of newly elected MLAs bowed out, Juan de Fuca MLA John Horgan has been reconsidering his decision not to run again. He finished third in 2011, and both he and Farnworth had leading roles in the NDP governments of the 1990s.

Photo showdown evolves into Hot Lapse Aaron Orlando

editor@revelstoketimesreview.com

Hot Lapse Photo competition at the Roxy Theatre this Friday kicks off the Freeride World Tour party weekend Clockwise from bottom: Photographers participating in the Revelstoke Hot Lapse 72-hour photo competition are Jim Harris, Park City, Utah; Zoya Lynch, Revelstoke; Todd Easterbrook, Whistler; Steve Shannon, Revelstoke; Reuben Krabbe, Whistler; John Antoniuk, Revelstoke.

Photos contributed by Hot Lapse

Revelstoke’s third annual action sports photographer showcase has grown significantly this year, taking on bigger names, way bigger prizes and a bigger showcase venue.

Sarah ‘Red’ Peterson has organized the event since its start as the Revelstoke Photographer Showdown, when it was a volunteer-driven event with modest prizes.

Now called Hot Lapse, the event has picked up lots of sponsors, including key partnerships with RMR, Powder Magazine, Salomon, the Swatch Freeride World Tour, Arc’teryx, Dissent Labs and Tourism Revelstoke.

Peterson explains that means free RMR season passes for participating photographers, and a cash prize of $3,000 for first, $1,500 for second and $700 for third.

The event moves to the Roxy Theatre, Revelstoke’s traditional home to raucous ski and shred flik premieres.

The local and visiting photographers – Jim Harris, John Antoniuk, Reuben Krabbe, Steve Shannon, Todd Easterbrook and Zoya Lynch – have 72 hours this week to shoot and edit a slideshow of outdoor action sports images.

The images will be shared and featured in upcoming Revelstoke and Revelstoke Mountain Resort promotions, and a Revelstoke calendar.

“My hope is they’re coming up with unique and creative ways to showcase Revelstoke,” Peterson explains. “This whole competition is designed to push adventure tourism in Revelstoke with them having creative freedom to run with it.”

Although Revelstoke has made a big splash in ski and snowboard media since Revelstoke Mountain Resort opened, Peterson explains the resulting imagery will be a way to put forward a more in-depth view of the community through the action sports lens, something that showcases more than just deep powder and perfect lighting.

(There will be lots of that, too.)

“I want to expose Revelstoke for being wicked,” Peterson puts it. The slide galleries will be featured online with lots of exposure via sponsors.

There are a whole bunch of social media tieins – including chances for you to win an Instagram contest this week – check out hotlapse.com for more.

The competition culminates in a 19+ licensed event at the Roxy Theatre this Friday, March 7 (Doors 6:30 p.m., show 7:30) – with drink proceeds to Revelstoke Canine Search & Rescue Society.

Past winners have been Mickey Ross and Royce Sihlis. Natalie Harris and Zoya Lynch have earned second place finishes.

Tickets are $10 in advance at Valhalla Pure Outfitters, $15 at the door.

The event is hosted by Scott Duke and Katie Burrell.

For more, see hotlapse.com.

Spring forward, tax back.

Timothy Wisdom & Slynk anchor FWT Friday night Touring turntablists set off freeride week with fun & funk ANA POLLO

Special to the Revelstoke Times Review

Prepare your booty bones, this Friday, March 7 Traverse night club has the pleasure of hosting not one but two ghetto funk phenomenons – Timothy Wisdom and Slynk.

A night of breaks, hip-hop, glitchhop, drum and bass, dub step and more all under funk’s roof. Ghetto funk is a cross pollination of made for grooving contemporary genres.

If you feel like getting smooth AND crunchy this weekend then this is a bite of funky butter you don’t want to miss.

Known as ‘the voice of ghetto funk,’ M.C Timothy Wisdom is a multi-talented DJ uniquely blending MCing, singing, turntablism and heart pumping hyping ability. Headlining many well-known festivals including Bass Coast, Shambhala, Burning Man and Vancouver international Folk Festival he is “at the forefront of west coast bass music.”

Number one is his ability to hype a crowd to the next level of party consciousness. A true storyteller and artist his sets always leave room for spontaneous content and a vibe that never ceases to be stoked.

Hailing from Brisbane, Vancouverbased DJ Slynk is a man of jolly mashups (combining samples of songs and electronic music) of funky breaks, classic hip-hop and wicked turntable ways. The current product of his lifelong love affair with music including several classical instruments. Gaining much respect for his “rare and rhythmically savvy grooves” he caught the attention of the international bass music scene as one of “Australia’s leading funky breakbeat DJs and producers.” After throwing down freakaliciously uplifting sets at Shambhala, Bass Coast and many other west coast bass festivals he is becoming a household name for break junkies in western Canada.

“Basically, my only rule is to only make and play music that makes you smile and for me that usually means funky.” Get ready to have your cheeks worked by this sweetie slinger, his top-shelf breaks and a bit of humour will bring on the burn.

Preview Slynk, Wisdom and their epic collaborations on SoundCloud, they even have some free downloads on Facebook to promote their show. I found Dance with you especially delicious.

Play Dissolve confronts sexual assault issues

Emmelia Gordon morphs fluidly between a flurry of 16 characters as part of play Dissolve, which tackles photo contributed the topic of drink spiking and sexual assaults.

Vancouver playwright Meghan Gardiner wants folks to work at putting her production Dissolve out of business.

As odd as it sounds, it’s something Gardiner’s been striving for since she wrote the play in 2003 that’s centred around drink spiking and drug-facilitated sexual assault.

“I dream of the day where the play is irrelevant,” she has said.

“Or maybe even when it’s viewed as a period piece, something historical. Where we can look back and say, ‘Wow, remember the time when sexual assault statistics were on the rise? Sure glad we curbed that.’

“Sadly, it doesn’t look like that dream of mine is happening anytime soon.”

In 2009, roughly 2,700 sexual assaults were reported in B.C. out of more than 20,000 across the country, according to Stats Canada. Thanks to national and international data collection we know GHB, one of three main date rape pills, was one of the top three drugs seized by Canadian border guards between 2007 and 2012.

Dissolve was part of the Fringe Festival circuit in 2013 and staff saw it and raved about the play. Shameless Hussy is a well-known, award-winning the-

RECRUITMENT

atre company from Vancouver and trusted for high-quality productions.

The acclaimed one-woman, 16-character “hilarious and heartbreaking theatrical tour de force” confronts the topic of drink spiking and sexual assaults.

It stars Jessie Richardson played by actress Emmelia Gordon.

“I know all these characters,” Gordon said in an interview.

“Some are an exaggeration, a characterization, but I have met some of these people.”

Gordon and Gardiner have each found themselves in a similar situation as their character — having had their drinks spiked before.

“It’s my way of connecting to people,” the 29-year-old Courtenay native (now Vancouverite) Gordon said. “I became very excited about being able to talk about this, and to be an advocate and just sort of someone who is very independent and a strong woman.

“And it’s about letting people know this happens, we can talk about it and the more we acknowledge it, the less crazy it will be.”

Director Iaci’s quite thrilled with Gordon’s ability to convey the story’s many faces.

“Emmelia is fantastic. She’s a very talented actress,” Iaci said.

“She auditioned ... she, by far,

was the best. She’s magic.”

The play follows Richardson on a night out and the people she encounters, with Gordon morphing fluidly between a flurry of characters.

Dissolve proposes to transform potential bystanders into ‘upstanders.’

“The show isn’t about the victim or perpetrator, the show really focuses on the bystanders, all the people that could have stepped in and didn’t,” Iaci said. “What about his guy friends, what about the adults in apartment building, or the bartender or bouncer?

“They laugh, grab their phones, get pictures, they might post them online, but they don’t do anything. We’ve become this society that is so afraid of stepping in.”

Dissolve toured the Fringe circuit for many years and is now gearing towards high schools, colleges and universities.

But Iaci stresses it’s not a lecture or a safety lesson.

“I’m not a teacher, although I like to provoke thought, but I’m not an educator. First and foremost, I want to entertain people,” she said.

Dissolve plays at the Revelstoke Performing Arts Centre on Saturday, March 8 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets ($15) are available at the Revelstoke Chamber of Commerce, ArtFirst!, or online through the RPAC website.

Pee Wees head to B.C. championships Contributed

The Revelstoke Minor Hockey Pee Wee Rep Team is going to the B.C. provincial championships.

The team has won the OMAHA (Okanagan Mainline Amateur Hockey Association) Pee Wee Tier 4 playoff series winning a berth at the Provincial Championships in Richmond March 15-19.

After a regular season in which they landed third in the division standings, the Revelstoke team went into playoffs and took Chase best two of three games.

They moved on to play Kelowna in the semi-finals and swept them in two games. The team remained focused and under their head coach Stephen Bull they only gained momentum.

The team went on to play in the finals against North Okanagan, the top ranked team in the division who were undefeated all season.

Fan of the Week!

After two great games where our team played hard and determined hockey, they swept the title from under North Okanagan’s skates in a 7-6 win in Enderby last weekend and a 10-5 home ice victory on March 1. \The support from the fans in the stands

on Saturday was tremendous and the team will take this memory onward as they head to Richmond.

Revelstoke Nordic Ski Club

This past weekend, the Revelstoke Nordic Ski Team took to the trails at Telemark Nordic in Kelowna for the 2014 Teck BC Championships. 598 competitors took part in the three-day event, including skiers from Alberta, Ontario and five US states.

Revelstoke Nordic was well represented with 29 skiers gracing the start line, helping the club finish sixth place out of the 14 B.C. clubs vying for the B.C. Championships Club Trophy.

The event began with Friday’s Mass Start Free technique on Telemark’s notoriously hilly courses.

The following Revelstoke skiers earned top results: Lillian Vickers, 4th Atom Girls 3

Natalia Morrone, 4th, Atom Girls 2 Alexandra Luxmoore, 4th Pee Wee Girls 2 Nelson Luxmoore, 4th Bantam Boys 1 Elizabeth Elliott, 3rd Midget Girls 2 Alana Brittin, 4th Midget Girls 2 *** On Saturday, skiers participated in an Interval Start Classic technique race. Alana Brittin led the way for Revelstoke, earning a B.C. Championship with a commanding 29-second victory in the Midget Girls 5.4-kilometre race. Here are some highlights from local skiers: Lillian Vickers, 5th Atom Girls 3

Revelstoke ski-mountaineer Greg Hill’s latest challenge is an attempt at 100 vertical kilometres during his March Madness campaign, which will feature ascents and descents in Revelstoke-area mountains.

©zooom.at/Markus Berger

Attention service groups, community and non-profit organizations, Kevin & Cathy Blakely of the Revelstoke McDonald's are pleased to sponsor this spot to present your message. Please call Mavis Cann at the Times Review with your information at 250-837-4667.

During our 11-minute Sunday afternoon interview, Greg Hill cranks out 450 vertical feet towards his goal of skiing 100 vertical kilometres in one month – all self-propelled.

And the uncanny part of the interview is he’s not even breathing heavily – if he didn’t tell me he was on his third ascent of the Macpherson Fingers for the day, I’d have guessed he was out walking down to La Baguette for a latte and chatting on his handsfree headphone.

The Revelstoke resident and mountain guide is sponsored by big name mountain manufacturers like Salomon and Arc’teryx, and has embarked on the social media-promoted journey into Revelstoke-area mountains.

Why 100 kilometres in a month?

“I’ve got my daily and I know my yearly. It’s fun to just see what I can do when I focus singularly on something,” Hill said.

“It’s just very simple. It’s mountains and ski touring.”

For the next month he’ll tour the Revelstoke-area mountains, aiming for about 30 peaks in his attempt.

Mostly, it’ll be the Selkirks and Monashees, and he won’t be repeating the same mountain

twice during the month.

Hill’s attempt will put the spotlight on the Revelstoke area, and he hopes it’ll make people realize just how blessed the region is with many, many skiable summits to be had. He says in some famous backcountry regions in the States, you’d start to run out of new summits before the month was up. Hill’s been in Revelstoke for 14 years, and there are still areas he hasn’t explored.

So far, the opening weekend was a warm-up. He took his family to the peak of Mount Mackenzie, a first summit for his children (aged 7 and 9). He pounded out some laps in Kokanee Bowl, then headed to Mount Macpherson on Sunday. He’ll venture further from his home base in the coming days.

Hill feels his record-setting two-million vertical feet in a year in 2010 is a more difficult accomplishment, but skiing 100 vertical kilometres in a month will take all he’s got.

The marketing wings of his sponsors have spread the word about his challenge far and wide, including media releases in my inbox. A couple days into his journey, Hill was ready to talk about it. “I hate talking about things before I’ve done them,” Hill said. “The reality is I am a professional athlete.” Nowadays,

that means maintaining a social media presence, which he’ll be doing on standard SM platforms and through a blog.

The March Madness attempt is a convenient way to reward his sponsors; it’s a packageable achievement that dovetails with social media promotion (all the Twitter, Instagram and Facebook links are easily found on the Arc’teryx website, and there are prizes to be won).

Several locals will be helping out on his attempt. Photographer Bruno Long is helping with images, and Aaron Chance, Mark Hartley and Andrew McNab will help with touring. And of course, family. In addition to family support, Hill estimates he’ll consume about 7,000–8,000 calories a day, including lots of Clif bars, gels, candies, sandwiches, pizza and avocados, in addition to regular family meals.

Before we hang up, Greg thanks me for keeping him company for a while. “It’s almost like a mouse in a treadmill,” he jokes of the time spent hammering out the miles solo. I’ve helped him while away part of his solo, Sunday afternoon mission.

I wish him luck and remind him to stay safe and sane.

“Safe for sure; sane, that’s perspective,” he jokes. “Normal to a crazy person seems insane.”

Jennie Cameron It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing on the 26th of February of our mother, grandmother and great grandmother.

Jennie Josephine (Vigue) Cameron was born in Sidmouth, B.C. on August 11, 1926, where she attended school.

She later moved to Revelstoke. On April 20th, 1946 she married the love of her life, Malcolm. Jennie is survived by her son, Clarence of Vernon, other sons Bob (Carol), Alex (Doreen) all of Revelstoke, daughter, Marlene (Don) Quail of Radium; also seven grandchildren; Lynda, Roberta, Donna, Lee, Cory, Jason and Allen, along with the joy of eight great-grandchildren; Andrew, Daryin, Paige, Justus, Austin, Kayser, Austin C. and Kylie; her brother Neil, numerous nieces and nephews along with many lifelong loving friends. She was predeceased by her husband, Mac in 2003 and daughter Peggy in 2005, her parents, three brothers and three sisters.

Jennie’s pleasures in life were camping and fishing with family; Bingo, cooking, baking knitting and crocheting. Her family and friends have many of her handmade crafts to treasure. She also participated and volunteered on community functions. If and when anyone dropped by to visit, they were sure to be welcomed and well fed.

By request there will be no formal funeral service, cremation to follow. A private family graveside service will be held later in the spring.

Messages of condolence may be sent to the family by visiting Jennie’s obituary notice at www.brandonbowersfuneralhome.com Cremation arrangements are in the care of Brandon Bowers Funeral Home, Revelstoke
