The way the province intends to manage B.C.’s grey wolf is the subject of a newly released wolf management plan.

The 48-page report, released Thursday, outlines several recommended management actions and also proposes a two-zone management strategy approach.

Management actions include; improving the accuracy of provincial and regional wolf population assessments, consider a more structured approach to determining when management changes are necessary and to consider policy changes to include the option of wolf control where wildlife populations or livestock are threatened by wolf predation.

The two-zone management strategy would recognize the objectives for wildlife populations threatened by wolf predation, such as cattle or mountain caribou, in one area while managing wolves elsewhere in the province to maintain naturally regulated predator/prey systems.

The report indicates wolf populations are likely stable or

increasing throughout the province with a current population of about 8,500 wolves, though those numbers are estimates.

In the Cariboo region, as in most areas of the province, wolf removal more than doubled in 2009 and 2010, according to the report.

About 200 wolves were reported to have been trapped or hunted in 2010 in the Cariboo.

Band celebrates initial tribunal victory Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The Williams Lake Indian Band celebrated its specific claims tribunal victory in Sugar Cane last week with a community dinner and powwow.

WLIB Chief Ann Louie said even though the federal government filed a judicial review against the ruling, and the court has reserved its decision for the time being, the community felt it was necessary to celebrate the tribunal ruling.

On Friday, Feb. 28, the Specific Claims Tribunal released its decision finding the Williams Lake Band was wrongfully dispossessed of its village lands in Williams Lake in the late 19th century.

Judge Harry Slade held Canada accountable for the Crown’s failure to protect the village lands from non-Indian settlement.

“It’s imperative we celebrate,” Chief Ann Louie said. “If we just sit back then we’re not honouring the work that we and our forefathers did.”

For more than 150 years Chiefs and Elders have been al-

leging First Nations were pushed off their village lands.

The tribunal decision clearly stated the dispossession from the lands was wrong, Louie said.

On April 7 and 8, WLIB members and supporters, along with the Kitselas Band from the Northwest B.C., spent two days in court because the federal government has filed judicial reviews against both bands’ specific claims tribunal rulings.

Louie said one of the statements made by the federal government’s lawyers in the court was insulting.

“He stated that oral history was inconsistent with reliable evidence. In other words our people are liars or made up the evidence we provided.”

The Tribunal argued the government needs to allow the Tribunal to make the final decisions for all specific claims to come to an end as an alternative to going to court.

Louie said WLIB will be waiting for the outcome of the court ruling because it will impact the case and the tribunal overall.

Denisiqi improves services Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer About once a week staff at Denisiqi Services Society hear through the grapevine the society is getting money and not doing anything.

However, staff at the helm in Williams Lake say those allegations are not true.

Executive director Dwayne Emerson and voluntary services supervisor Nadine Adam said the society is very busy servicing Tsilhqot’in and Ulkatcho communities.

“We have 10 program streams that are contracted through the Ministry of Children and Family Development,” Emerson said.

If the society wasn’t providing services they would have lost all contracts a long time ago, Adam added.

Criticisms about the society emerged in November after the Representative for Children And Youth released a report titled When Talk Trumped Service: A Decade of Lost Opportunity for Aboriginal Children and Youth in B.C. In the 85-page report, Denisiqi was listed as a Delegated Aboriginal Agency that received $975,807 in 2012/13 but had not opened any files.

Delegated means an Aboriginal agency can deliver child welfare ser-

www.wltribune.com A3

vices to First Nations children, youth and families.

“The report compiled the information in March 2013 and released it in November,” Emerson said. “We were not a delegated agency until April 2013, so we wouldn’t have been anything but zero.”

Representative for Children and Youth Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond said since she released the report, Denisiqi has put a lot more focus in recent months on having a delegation agreement, on how it delivers services, and on its relationship with the Ministry of Children and Family Development.

For some years Denisiqi was delegated and then it wasn’t, TurpelLafond said.

“You have to be an organization that has a delegation agreement with the ministry and the federal government and meet certain standards before you can take a file and open that file.”

Turpel-Lafond investigated Denisiqi for an interval of 10 years and found there was an interval, about five years, where the agency was delegated to do work, but had no files and there was no record of what was done.

That doesn’t mean they weren’t doing other things, Turpel-Lafond

explained.

In response to the report, MCFD said it has created an Aboriginal Service Innovations program.

The new program invites Aboriginal services providers to apply for funding by submitting business plans clearly outlining measurable targets for providing services to children.

“We’re currently engaged with our Aboriginal partners on developing an Aboriginal Practice Framework to help guide policy and practice in Aboriginal service regardless if they are provided through the ministry or a delegated Aboriginal agency,” the MCFD said in an e-mailed response.

Turpel-Lafond, however, said what work will be done for children is still unknown.

“They have retooled it a bit,” she said. “I’m glad they have and I’m monitoring that very closely.”

Agencies will have to apply, say what they are going to do, fill out paper work, file back and the work will have to be consistent with what the ministry is supposed to be doing, she continued.

“People won’t be able to get money to just have meetings and talk. From my view as the representative, it’s only progress when programs are in place.”

Emerson said 100 per cent of the funds identified in the report were used for prevention and support programs on and off reserve.

For example, Denisiqi delivers an Aboriginal Family Group Conferencing (AFGC) program and contractually has to resolve 24 family group conferences in a year.

Those conferences take anywhere from three to five days with active participation from families that are involved and the numbers are 16 to 20 people sometimes.

One community of the seven, had 65 people participate in the AFGCs from July last year until today, Emerson said.

Two clinicians work for the society, funded through Child Youth and Mental Health, with one contract worth 1.5 full time equivalents to provide service to a the entire region.

One of the clinicians is dedicated to one-onone clinical work and the other does more capacity building and community development work so most of her work is with groups.

“She does the assist suicide intervention training, she does the schizophrenia workshop, she does the circle of courage event with families,” Emerson said. of the second clinician.

The Rose Lake/Miocene 4-H Club’s annual Easter petting zoo and cake-walk fundraiser in Boitanio Mall is always a popular event with families. The young 4-H Club members had a goat, a miniature horse, sheep, a crowing rooster, a ferret, dog, kittens, and rabbits (small and large) for the kids to visit with including this giant Easter bunny handing out chocolates to Makena Petruk, 7, and her sister Ashton, 5. Cakes were also great.

Police report: Off-roading results in rural vehicle parts theft During the Easter weekend RCMP were kept busy with the usual occurrences such as drinking and driving, intoxication, assaults and traffic complaints, responding to approximately 100 calls for service. In its roundup of reports the RCMP

highlighted the following incidents.

Sunday, April 20 At 11:18 a.m. RCMP responded to a complaint of a break and enter at a residence on Third Avenue. The home owner returned and found the residence had been broken into

and a 55” television, Acer computer laptop and PS3 system had been stolen. The matter is still under investigation and the police are following up with potential suspects.

Monday, April 21 At approximately 8:15 a.m. RCMP re-

ceived a complaint of a theft from a vehicle parked on Settlers Place between 5 p.m. on April 20 and 7:45 a.m. on April 21.

During this time suspect(s) made off with a black 40” Nightrider LED light bar that was attached to the

front of the truck. The light bar is valued at approximately $1,000.

At 5:18 p.m. police received a report that several vehicle parts were stolen from a truck on April 20.

The owner of the vehicle stated he was out Saturday night off-

roading with his truck, just off of West Coast Road, Wildwood, by the pipeline when his truck went into a big puddle of water which caused his vehicle to quit.

The owner left his vehicle there for the night and came back Sunday at 1 p.m. to get the

battery out and take it home to recharge it.

When he returned around 7 p.m. he noticed the following missing: red tail gate, rear tail lights, hitch and ball, jack, axe, and the fuel door cap, with a total value of approximately $1150.

Arctic Air star joins 13th Walk of Hope Caitlin Thompson Black Press Celebrating their 13th year, the Nuxalk Nation’s Snxlhh Transition House’s annual Walk of Hope last week featured an impressive turnout and a special guest: Hollywood movie star Adam Beach.

The Transition House has been operational since 1998 in Bella Coola, offering safe shelter to women experiencing abuse and various counselling and educational outreach programs aimed at stopping family violence.

The Walk of Hope is their annual event intended to raise awareness around violence, in particular violence against women.

Successful First Nations actor Adam Beach was brought in as a motivational speaker to coincide with the Walk of Hope and the first local students’ completion of the Chemical Addictions Worker Certificate Program, known as CHAD. Thirteen students have completed the first portion of the certificate program, offered by the Nicola Valley Institute of Technology, through Lip’alhayc College. Beach’s presence, aimed mainly at the youth, was part of the celebration of these achievements.

The CHAD program’s community presentation included booths from Bella Coola Community Support Society, Bella Coola Home and Community Care, the Snxlhh Transition House, RCMP, Tsow-Tun- Le Lum, Lip’alhayc College,

“I think the most important thing we learned is that the healing needs to take place here,” said graduate Nola Mack. “We need to do it together, in our territory, in our home.”

It was within that spirit of healing that Beach, who spent three days in Bella Coola, shared his personal story of childhood trauma, loss, and abuse, and how he overcame these challenges to enjoy a successful Hollywood career as an actor.

Born on the Dog Creek First Nation in Manitoba, Beach lost both his parents within months of each other. His mother, eight months pregnant at the time, was hit by a drunk driver outside his home.

His grief-stricken father drowned eight weeks later.

“Losing my parents, the people I loved most in the world, changed everything,” Beach shared. “I lost all my fear because I had

nothing left to lose; it had already been taken from me.”

Beach and his two brothers were initially sent to live with their grandparents, and later on with their aunt and uncle in Winnipeg. It was during his teen years that Beach began using alcohol and drugs and hanging out in gangs. It all could have gone very differently if he hadn’t found his culture.

“The Anishinabe spiritual teachings are what give me my strength,” said Beach, sharing his sacred cultural items with the crowd. “I carry them with me wherever I go.”

Beach went on to pursue acting, landing his first major role at age 16.

He never looked back, going on to star in independent indigenous films (Smoke Signals) and massive Hollywood blockbusters (Cowboys and Aliens).

Most recently, Beach starred as Bobby Martin in CBC’s popular

series, Arctic Air. “Acting was my way out,” Beach explained.

“There is a world out there: challenge yourself and let your passion motivate you and go seek it out.”

Beach is now taking his passion across Canada. His new project, Bandwidth, aims to bring first-run and independent movies to reserves across the country through the concept of ‘pop-up cinema.’

Beach premiered the first theatre two weeks ago in the community of Brokenhead First Nation about 65 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg.

But there are plans to bring pop-up theatres to other communities, including Norway House First Nation and back to Bella Coola.

“This is something that can bring people together,” Beach said.

“And now we have an

opportunity to share more aboriginal films, so we’re basically creating a bigger market for native film. But also, we are now being able to bring the world to these communities.”

The Nuxalk community celebrated Beach’s presence with a potluck supper and an evening of cultural celebration and dancing, with a strong focus on honouring the youth. Beach was showered with traditional gifts and honoured with a Nuxalk name: Micmiklh kulhuuts (literal translation: Star Beach). Hundreds of star-struck fans flocked to Beach to get their photo taken or an autograph.

Dorothy Pootlass, who spearheaded the initiative to bring in Beach with her husband, Archie, said she was inspired by his story and felt he could relate to the community.

“I was taken in by his ability to accomplish what he was doing,” Pootlass said. “I felt our community would benefit from bringing someone in from outside who is doing something so positive.”

Alongside the Nuxalk Nation, Beach’s expenses were heavily sponsored with community donations from Pacific Coastal, the Bella Coola Valley Inn, the Nuxalk Nation, WLDCU, Tru Value, the Hagensborg Shop Easy, Lip’alhayc College, Barton Insurance, and the RCMP.

“

The Right to Food,” a recent report to the United Nations Human Rights Council, takes a long term view for the planning and developing of farmland. It calls for a more democratic control. That means making big changes in the way food is produced and distributed on a global scale.

At the moment, the world’s food system is controlled by large (mostly U.S.) corporations. The report calls for less control by these giant agribusinesses, more food grown locally and sustainably.

What does this French have to do with Connection us?

Diana French Well, “Feeding the World,” a feature story in the Vancouver Sun’s weekend business section, tells about “reshaping” our agri-food sector to “exploit the export opportunities.”

The provincial government is doing a great job in leading the parade to this goal, according to the story, especially in the Asian markets. Good news economically.

The Sun story notes “massive markets” will benefit our fish farms as will global craving for our blueberries, although the latter will “gobble up Fraser Valley farmland.”

The story doesn’t mention the B.C. government is messing around with the Agricultural Land Reserve; planning on Site C which would wipe out farmland that could feed a million people; and encouraging fish farms despite the potential damage to wild fish stock.

Oh, and that farmland going to blueberries for export once grew produce for local consumption.

While the Clark government is encouraging global markets, many B.C. communities, including ours, are leaning the opposite way, focusing on community gardens and markets selling locally grown produce and meat.

However, Bill Bennett, the cabinet minister in charge of rewriting the agricultural land legislation, was quoted as saying if he relied on locally grown food in his constituency, he’d have to eat hay.

If we keep losing our farmland and exporting what food we do produce, maybe we’ll all be eating hay a few years down the road.

Our Viewpoint

Not enough consultation on ALR changes Changing with the times can be a good thing.

But, the debate surrounding the B.C. Liberal government’s plans to amend the Agricultural Land Reserve, indicates this change is meeting with some opposition.

The ALR covers about 4.7 million hectares, or about three per cent of the provincial land base.

Given the changes are targeted especially to lands in Zone 2, anything outside of the Lower Mainland, the Okanagan and Vancouver Island, then the regulations apply to much less than three per cent of B.C.’s land base.

Bill Bennett, minister for core review, has offered up some explanations, but they seem too facile, and leave other questions unanswered.

Why did the government not consult with farmers? Why is the government wanting to especially loosen the restrictions on how ALR land in Zone 2 can be used?

Why is the government wanting a piece of such a small pie?

Scientists from B.C.’s universities are against the changes for a variety of reasons.

But why listen to them? Remember the cod fishery? Exactly.

Between 1976, when the ALR was introduced, and 2011, the population of British Columbia jumped a whopping 84 per cent, to about 4.6 million from 2.5 million. Over that same time period the amount of land in the ALR remained essentially the same. Almost double the number of mouths to feed, but the same amount of land.

Climate change is already lapping on our shores, exactly what that will do to food production around the world is unknown.

Are we really ready to roll the dice on food security? Changing the rules to allow alternative uses on ALR land just doesn’t add up, unless we are missing a part of the equation.

udget discussions continued April 22 as council deliberated the 2014 budget and the five-year financial plan. As always, we are taking a multipronged approach, including finding efficiencies, as we balance our infrastructure needs with keeping taxes low. Stay tuned for more information about the budget in the coming weeks.

This Thursday, you will see a brand new website at williamslake.ca. We’ve created an informative, user-friendly site that offers an opportunity for residents to cusFrom the tomize how they Mayor’s interact online with the city. You Chair can choose how to Kerry Cook be notified about a number of city topics, including news, initiatives, and job opportunities. There is even an option for text message or e-mail updates.

Council wants to hear from you! The website now features a Community Voice module, where registered users can participate in discussion about city initiatives, and share ideas for Williams Lake’s future. We’re excited to have the ability for vibrant online dialogue through the website. Everyone who registers for the website in the first month after its launch will be entered in a draw for some prizes, including a six-month pass to the complex.

Make sure you check it out — I’m sure you’ll be impressed!

Do you know that Williams Lake is home to the TRU Health Centre, the only one of its kind in the province? This nurse practitioner-run centre got a boost last week with a generous $20,000 donation from the Robert L. Conconi Foundation.

The Health Centre gives patients an additional option for health care and complements the emergency service at the hospital.

Other than the emergency department at the hospital, it is the only place in Williams Lake that offers drop-in services.

I hope everyone enjoyed the Easter long weekend with family and loved ones. I had fun in the kitchen with my grandchildren making goodies and lots of memories.

It was a busy weekend, with the Indoor Rodeo providing excitement for the whole family. A big thank you to the organizers and volunteers of the Indoor Rodeo. By all accounts, it was a great success!

Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.

Economic projects pave way for better health care Editor: In these days of medical marvels, most of us are ever so thankful that doctors using modern technology can know exactly what our inner body looks like. What is amazing about this technology, doctors don’t need to cut us apart any more, as they once might have.

Whatever our hidden ailment, doctors can actually get a three dimensional accurate look at our every organ or even a developing cancer.

Not exactly the same kind of methods that mining companies may use to determine the dimensions of a hidden mineral deposit, however, the result is virtually the same. By drilling hundreds of holes, and extracting samples, of an ore body, mining companies can determine what is hidden to the eye.

Before Taseko got to where the New Prosperity Mine now is, millions of dollars had been spent to

find out not only what is underground but, as well, what exact minerals the ore body contained.

Prior to developing the proposal and, at this point in history, damning above ground infrastructure, similar to the medical profession, all hidden information is established.

At the New Prosperity location, as our doctors before an operation, Taseko knows what is underground, what will be required to extract those minerals, and exactly what those minerals will be worth once extracted. Taseko has at great expense, already bought and paid for this valuable information.

In Canada’s world of enterprising opportunities, thankfully, it is corporations like Taseko investing millions of dollars in the New Prosperity Project that actually drives Canada’s economy, an economy that allows Canada to have a medical system as we have today, a system where only a few short

years ago, with some issues, some survivals might have been extremely questionable.

Next time we, or a member of our family visit a doctor with a disconcerting health ailment, in ours, or a loved one’s body, take a few minutes to think about the financial resources of this country. If Canada did not have corporations developing industries, such as the New Prosperity Mine Project and those dreaded pipelines, each and every one of us might be medically far worse off, and for our generations ahead, even possibly suffer significantly shorter lives.

For those who relentlessly drive hard against all economic development, while continuing to demand services and health care, we could be constructing a steep drop off on this country’s unforgiving road ahead.

Community support appreciated Editor: In today’s day and age when negativity tends to be the main focus, I would like to take the time to recognize and thank the people of our local hospital, especially the crew that was working in the emergency, X-ray and O/R rooms Saturday afternoon to early Sunday morning.

As any parent can relate to, when your child is injured and you have to take her or him to emergency, you are on an emotional roller coaster and your entire being is tested.

www.wltribune.com A7

I feel the old saying “It takes a community to raise a child,” really came to light over the weekend.

Our daughter was injured Saturday playing rugby and had to be taken into a typically full weekend emergency room. The caring staff did their best to accommodate us right away and treated my daughter with nothing but extreme professionalism and a loving and caring heart. I apologize that I don’t remember all the staff’s names that were on the two shifts but I would like to name a few that I do. Karen Straza, Jamie-Lynn Purdy from O/R,

Bev Straza from X-ray, Colleen Patenaude, Tanya Taschuk, Emanuel, and Chealsey all from the emergency room. They all did an amazing job that did not go unnoticed.

I would also like to take the time to thank Pat and Tracey Whitford for taking such good care of her when we were not there.

I feel lucky to have our daughter surrounded by such a wonderful community.

Canada needs to help reduce global greenhouse gas emissions Editor: The elite seek to maximize global consumption of Canadian fossil-fuels. They have no interest/concern in helping cut global GHG production by 12 per cent in 2020.

Brian Mulroney (Canada 2020 4/8/14) wants it prioritized ... fossil-fuel energy development. He wants a Resource Development Office with special powers to streamline regulatory reviews for oil, gas and mineral development.

tion or building pipelines for maximized global Canadian fossil-fuel consumption helps global temperatures pass 2C. It helps triple Canada’s tar-sand industry. Global carbon output will not fall with elite-ruled summons/support for Canada’s energy policy based on maximizing fossil-fuel production for global consumption.

Current and future temperatures of .8C to 1C are unacceptably dangerous.

Without a global agreement, 3C to 4C (or higher) will likely be the irreversible predicament/leg-

acy for future generations. Very likely, 2015 will be the last chance to stay below 2C. Canada’s help is needed for global common goals of reducing/binding global consumption of fossil-fuels by 2020.

Global GHGs must be cut — beginning by 12 percent in 2020 to escape global temperatures going past 2C. 194 envoys will meet for this challenging crucial global climate summit in Paris 2015.

Canada’s policy makers won’t plan for what the world needs now, never by 2020, in view of

IPCC’s latest report to the world (3/31/14).

Virtually certain children are inhumanly trapped by Canada’s twisted policy, herded into an inescapable hotter life-sacrificing dangerous planet.

Canada’s resources bubble blocks global climate agreement.

Canada urgently needs a 2014 National Non-Carbon Energy Plan, with secure, decent livingwage jobs aimed at universal human well-being, aimed at stopping global temperatures from rising past 2C. With duly recognized univer-

sal democratic human rights, common people can plan their children’s, grandchildren’s, greatgrandchildren’s essential/sustainable climate future with appropriate/relevant/impartial scientific climate knowledge, with crucial/ indispensable personal and collective democratic participation — planned while we still can.

Fulfilling humanity’s common dreams, common people can democratically evolve, except for the privileged-elite.

More Viewpoints/NEWS Being a parent and really liking it My son was a hero when he had his tonsils out.

I did my best to make it more interesting than traumatic and even got him an early Halloween Superman costume to wear when he came back from the recovery room.

He was actually looking forward to the surgery (first and last time I was ever able to use that ruse!) He knew what a hero was because he watched Superman on TV. The doctor and nurse who came to talk to me after his surgery were laughing so hard as they approached that they could only choke out their story.

Apparently, it went this way in the operat-

Corner Stories

with Colleen Crossley

ing room as the gas mask was lowered onto my son’s face. He reached up, sedated and bleary-eyed, and gently pushed the mask and anaesthetist’s hand aside. He was so very clear and serious, they reported, when he said, brow furrowed deeply, “do we have to do this … today?” and that was all before the medications took effect and “out” he went … He came home that day flying … in his Superman

costume and his heart.

In another story of my son’s struggle for understanding, I got a frantic call at work one day from his daycare worker asking “what in Heaven’s name” he might want — he was running around so concerned and asking to have a “B.M.”!

He was only three and no one really thought such a term would be used properly by him and they have no idea to what extent he had, apparently, absorbed my health care jargon in his short little life.

In any case, poor guy, I had not taught him any other term except B.M. for toilet events of that type (a bowel movement) — he did not know any of the

more frequently-used references like “No. 2” and “poo” and the workers did not recognize his term.

Yes, he was a dangerous combination of adult language skills and an excellent understanding of medical terms!

My son was (and is) always comfortable talking to anyone, of any age, at any time.

He was in French Immersion in most of his school years and, to my delight one day, he started talking in French to a couple of teenagers sitting near us in a restaurant.

They reported afterward that his French was very good and more Parisian than French Canadian. That

was interesting.

Oh, and another splash he made in his youth was to call 911 from a pay phone as he had been instructed to do if he has a serious problem and/or feels scared.

The problem was ... his problem — “well, it’s raining hard and my mom said she would be here to pick me up and she isn’t and I’m scared so will you come and get me?”

It was a problem, indeed, when the RCMP showed up at the cub camp he had called from looking for an abandoned child!

“That’s my boy!”

MORE VIEWPOINTS Risks of bitumen spill too costly to society David Black Black Press My name is David Black. I am the majority owner of Black Press, the company that owns this newspaper. This is the first of two columns addressing what I see as the greatest threat to the B.C. environment in our lifetime.

I am a reasonably sensible and conservative businessman, not an alarmist. All of the information in this column can be confirmed from public sources.

The oil industry wants to export Alberta bitumen to Asia via tankers. Under no circumstances should we allow that to happen. A bitumen spill at sea could destroy our coastline, together with the fish and wildlife that depend on it, for hundreds of

David Black years.

Bitumen, even if it is diluted, does not float in sea water if there is sediment present. This has been proven many times, most recently in a thorough Environment Canada study published on Nov. 30, 2013. Page 51 of the study provides graphic evidence of sunken bitumen. Given that there is an abundance of sediment along the B.C. coast, the bitumen will sink rapidly

14-073.4_RenoNation_10.3125x7_FBC-P1.indd 1

and there will be little chance of recovering any of it if there is a spill. By Northern Gateway’s own admission the likelihood of a bitumen spill at sea is more than 10 per cent over the next 50 years. Others say that it is much higher.

We are in agreement with the position taken by the Coastal First Nations that even the slightest risk of a spill of bitumen at sea is unacceptable.

The grounding of the Exxon Valdez in Alaska in 1989 is often held up as an example of how bad an oil spill at sea can be, however, a spill of bitumen at sea would be much worse. The Exxon Valdez carried light crude and lost 250,000 barrels, one eighth of a tanker load. The light oil floated and

could be removed from the beaches.

Even so, after four years of work with up to 11,000 workers and 1,400 boats involved, less than 10 per cent of it was recovered. Roughly 200,000 birds and many kinds of other wildlife were killed.

Approximately 1,300 miles of shoreline were affected and the fishery has yet to fully recover. Bitumen is very different. It would harden up on shore and much of it would sink to the bottom, making it unrecoverable and killing virtually everything with which it came in contact. Imagine if we lost a full tanker load.

Some say that, with GPS-based navigation and double hulls, spills such as Exxon Valdez are not possible today. They are

wrong. Double hulls do not prevent hull fractures if there is a collision at speed, only if there is a gentle scrape. As for the GPS claim, most marine accidents are caused by human inattention, not by a lack of knowledge about position. All ships carried systems to indicate their location before GPS came along.

The Exxon Valdez crew could have glanced at their instruments to determine their location but they didn’t, neither did the crew on the Queen of the North. Marine disasters regularly occur and a quick search of the internet shows human error is most often the problem.

Undoubtedly there will be many more marine accidents in future. Our grandchildren will not

thank us if we willingly risk the destruction of the B.C. coast on our watch.

Fortunately there is a solution that is beneficial for all concerned: all we have to do is build a refinery at Kitimat. The refinery will convert the bitumen to gasoline, diesel and jet fuel which float and evaporate if they are spilled. Often little or no spill remediation is required. These refined fuels simply do not cause the habitat destruction of conventional or synthetic crude oil, or anywhere near the devastation caused by bitumen.

The second part of this opinion piece will run in the next issue. It will discuss the enormous value-added benefits and environmental advantages of a modern, green refinery. The pipeline

from Alberta and the tanker fleet to export the refined fuels will also be considered.

Let me declare my biases.

I am for creating thousands of good permanent jobs in B.C. I am for creating billions of new tax dollars for government coffers. I am for reducing the planet’s greenhouse gas emissions. I am for building an oil pipeline that will never leak. I am for building a modern tanker fleet that carries only refined fuels that float and evaporate if spilled. I am against shipping bitumen in tankers.

If you agree that we should not put bitumen in tankers please contact your local MP and say so. The Canadian government makes a decision on this next month.

Sense and Sensibility on stage next week Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer The Studio Theatre has been hard at work preparing to bring Jane Austen’s popular story Sense and Sensibility to the lakecity stage.

“The cast of 14 actors which include a blend of seasoned actors and ones who are relatively new to the stage, have worked together, growing and rising to the challenges of the script,” says director Becky Strickland.

“Preparing for this play has included a great deal of analyzing not only the words, but also the emotions and underlying intent of the script.

“This has allowed the actors to dive into the world of Jane Austen, in 1805, and truly bring the story alive.”

She says the play is quite unique in style as it is made up of a number of short vignettes which tie together to tell the story.

She says set changes and minor costume changes are done in full light, in full view of the audience and

Cariboo chilcotin genealogy group

are incorporated into the story being told.

“The costumes, created by Christa Obergfell have truly brought the Regency era to life.

The men’s dress coats with tails, and ladies empire waist gowns highlight a time of elegance and grace,” Strickland says.

The cast and crew of this classic story are excited to bring the play to the stage for their three week run, beginning April 30.

Sense and Sensibility will also be part of the Central Interior Zone Drama Festival taking place in Williams Lake the week of May 28 to 31.

Strickland is producing the play with Stacey Poirier who is also the stage manager and in charge of hair and makeup design.

Curt Sprickerhoff is designing the set; John Walsh is in charge of lighting; Jazmyn Doulliard is in charge of welcoming the audience and poster design.

Sense and Sensibility will be on stage at the Studio Theatre April 30 to May 3, May 7 to 10, and May 14 to 17.

French, to snowboard bum, to artist: Kendra Smith designs collector coins Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer At first she thought the voice message she received was a practical joke being played on her by a friend, but listening closer she realized the invitation was real.

The invitation had come from the Royal Canadian Mint asking Kendra (Smith) Dixson to submit designs for the minting of collectible silver coins.

Just to be on the safe side, Kendra sent five different designs for the mint to choose from and was thrilled when two of her designs featuring alpine skiers in wooded winter settings had been chosen.

Ironically she says neither of the selections were the one she expected to win.

Two of her scenes were engraved for the 2014 Fine Silver Coins O Canada collection. One design appears on the one-ounce $25 silver coin and the other appears on the half-ounce $10 silver coin.

“The call came out of the blue.

I am so honoured,” Kendra says.

“It has been very exciting to design collector’s coins for Canada.”

Growing up in the Williams Lake area, Kendra says that in high school she might have been voted the least likely to become a snowboard bum, but that choice in life is exactly what led her to become an artist and ultimately being invited by the Royal Canadian Mint to submit designs for the coins. The transformation, however, took a few years.

After high school Kendra headed off to the University of Victoria to earn a degree in French which she felt would be the best route for indulging her passion for travel.

She had spent a year as an exchange student in Belgium and after university spent a year working in Quebec teaching conversational English to students whose first language was French.

“I was asked to pretend I only spoke English but that didn’t work for long,” Kendra says.

In high school she didn’t go on school ski trips because she was afraid of the sport, but in Quebec she took her first snowboarding lessons on ski trips with her students.

But she didn’t become hooked on the sport until moving back to B.C. and taking a job in Kamloops with Sun Peaks Resort photographing and making season’s passes for people.

Photos submitted

Kendra Dixson, now an artist living in Kelowna, grew up in Williams Lake and was asked last year by the Royal Canadian Mint to submit designs for a collector’s silver coin. Two of her designs below were chosen. Kendra has family in Williams Lake and visits periodically. She has shown her work at the Medieval Market and will teach a sold-out water-colour painting workshop at the Station House Gallery next month. She specializes in winter scenes which she sells at ski resorts.

That winter she was offered a job on the Sun Peaks hill itself.

Her brother left his snowboarding equipment with her when he went travelling in Australia and that was the start of her snowboarding bum days.

She was waitressing to make money for travel and snowboard-

ing on the weekends.

“I loved it,” Kendra says.

The art evolved organically.

She and her roommates didn’t have money to buy art for their home so they decided to create their own paintings. She took a watercolour workshop and started painting winter scenes in her

spare time.

She worked at Sun Peaks for two winters, then moved to Fernie where she worked on the ski hill for six winters. Summers she travelled, and worked, and travelled, taking jobs in Jasper, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, and for one season a ski hill in Australia.

“To live doing what you love is more important than the money,” Kendra says.

Through her travels she continued to paint and slowly but surely painting became her new passion.

“I knew my passion changed from snowboarding to painting when I stayed home from the hill one day to frame some of my pictures,” Kendra says.

In 2005 Kendra moved to Kelowna to study at the Centre for Arts and Technology.

“I wanted to learn how to make my own website and ended up taking every class they offered and earning a diploma in digital media design,” Kendra says.

She spent two years earning the diploma and after graduating taught at the centre for a yearand-a-half before branching out on her own again.

Today, Kendra continues to live in Kelowna with her husband, Clinton, and their 16-month-old son, Ryland.

Clinton traded his geotechnical engineering career in for selfemployment as a website designer and on-line marketing service.

While busy with their young son these days, Kendra continues to paint, teach painting workshops, and works as a graphic designer.

Kendra and Clinton are also involved in dragon boat racing and with recreational hockey in Kelowna. They play co-ed hockey in the summer and she plays with a women’s team in the winter. She started playing defence and now plays left wing and manages her team, while Clinton is their coach.

Kendra learned to play hockey in Williams Lake. She played with a girls league for a year but when that league folded, she played with the boys league. At age 17 she played on a team with 12 and 13 year old boys.

“I wasn’t very good,” Kendra says. “But I remember being named the most sportsmanlike player in the whole league.”

Kendra is teaching a painting workshop in Williams Lake in May which is already sold out, but may hold a second workshop if there is enough interest.

Cowboy Carnival well attended Dozens of volunteers did an amazing job Friday morning kicking off the Wil-

liams Lake Indoor Rodeo with a children’s Cowboy Carnival.

Hundreds of chil-

dren and their families were treated to an introduction to rodeo to rival the rodeo itself.

Right in the dirt of the Cariboo Memorial Complex arena where the cowboys rode in three shows during the weekend, children were riding a bucking barrel, roping hay bale calves, petting and grooming a live miniature pony, and throwing horseshoes.

They were riding hobby horses around a barrel racing track, tossing beanbags into cowboy cutouts, colouring cowboy images, having little moustaches painted

on their lips (girls and boys) and other images painted on their faces, and climbing aboard tractors and other ranch equipment.

As parents, grandparents, cousins and friends snapped pictures and videos here and there it seemed the older family members were having just as much fun as the kids.

Stampede Royalty, past and present were there to help out the many other volunteers and help teach the little ones cowboy skills.

Horsefly 4-H wins video contests Linda Bartsch Special to Tribune/Advisor The Horsefly 4-H Club earned dual honours this spring by winning two major video contest awards promoting agriculture.

In early January this year, Horsefly 4-H Club members were asked if they wanted to participate in 4-H Canada’s Shout Out for AG! national video contest. The kids showed great interest and wanted to participate, making it the first time the club had entered this competition.

The photography club volunteered to do the project, with leader Victor Khong managing the project.

The challenge was to create videos that showcased agricultural themes not exceeding 45 seconds in length.

The Horsefly 4-H members decided to submit for two categories: “I Joined 4-H because...” and “I want

The first category would go on to have 24 submissions from across the nation, making it the most contested category in the competition.

For the first video, the club decided on having different members share their reasons for joining 4-H

with live animals and farm scenery in the background.

The second video was inspired by Anna Best’s idea, “My dream is to have a ranch. My dream is to take over my Grandma and Grandpa’s ranch.”

Using this concept, a video called For Generations was rapidly sketched out.

The first video shoot happened on Jan. 11 at the Best Ranch. The following Saturday and Sunday, production occurred at Woodjam Ranch and Jen and Ty’s Ranch along Black Creek Road.

On Jan. 25 additional video was shot at Doug Best’s ranch featuring Garrett Best in the role of the next

SPORTS Archers reach podium at nationals Plenty of arrows are flying around the Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse these days as the Cariboo Archers are putting the finishing touches on the indoor archery season.

A group of Cariboo Archers — Jessie Mobbs, Dan Mobbs, Fred Streleoff and Al Campsall — recently returned home from the Canadian Indoor 3D Archery Championships in Lethbridge.

All four athletes reached the podium at the championships, held April 18-20, putting themselves in position to earn a spot on Team Canada for the 2015 World Championships.

Jessie, in her first ever Canadian championship, finished with a silver medal in the ladies longbow category.

Streleoff, meanwhile, started the tournament leading by quite a large margin, and continued that pace throughout the competition to win his third Canadian Championship in the men’s recurve division.

After winning the compound bow category at the 2004 Canadian Outdoor 3D Championships hosted in Prince George Dan, Jessie’s dad, switched to recurve to

give Streleoff a run for his money, picking up the silver medal.

Campsall also led from start to finish in the men’s compound class at the championships to claim his 11th Canadian title.

All four Cariboo Archers are vying for a spot on Team Canada for the 2015 worlds.

Earlier in the month several other local archers shot their ways to top finishes at the Kamloops Outdoor 3D Shoot.

Cameron Brockel, in the youth compound class, finished second.

Lee Jackman, in the men’s open division, fired a fifth-place result.

Streleoff, (first), Dan (second), Ernie Schmid (third) and Campsall (sixth) — trying his hand in an unfamiliar division — all placed.

In the men’s compound division Johnny Walker shot to third, while Jessie, in the women’s longbow class, finished first.

Coming up the Cariboo Archers will be piercing the start of the Williams Lake outdoor archery season as the Cariboo Archers Outdoor 3D Fun Shoot takes place May 3-4 at the Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse on Bond Lake Road.

McDonald’s third annual Fun Run and Walk goes May 4 Williams Lake residents and members of local youth sports associations are getting ready to rally

behind McDonald’s Third Annual Fun Run/Walk.

The run takes place Sunday, May 4 at 9

a.m., with registration beginning at noon.

Last year teams from the Williams Lake Youth Soccer

Slo pitch league ready to swing The Williams Lake Slo-Pitch League is growing.

That’s the message from Linda Barbondy, president of the league, which is set to begin its regular season April 29 at the Esler Sports Complex.

“We’ve decided to have five new teams this year,” Barbondy said, adding there will now be five divisions in the WLSPL — an A, B, C, D and E division, for the newly registered teams.

Depending on results, teams will move up or down a division following the slopitch season.

Barbondy said the WLSPL is still looking for one more team, as the league is currently sitting at 29 teams.

The WLSPL Icebreaker Tournament will follow April’s regular season games from May 24-25 at the Esler Sports Complex.

After that, the Overlander Pub Fundraiser Tournament goes from June 21-22.

Barbondy added there will be a work bee in preparation of the season from April 26-27 at the ball fields for all teams.

For more information, or to register a team for the upcoming season, contact Barbondy at 250392-6643 or at crazyrowdy22@yahoo. com.

Association and the Williams Lake Minor Hockey Association participated.

This year, both hope to

have multiple teams taking part in the run, which supports McHappy Day and Williams Lake Kid-

Sport.

The entry fee is $5 or $20 per family.

Participants will receive a free McMuffin

breakfast sandwich.

Money raised will go toward McHappy Day on Wednesday, May 7.

You don’t have to start on the road Many of the top road racers in the world didn’t start on the pavement. They started in the dirt.

Why? Because it teaches you how to control a bike in less than ideal traction environments.

Also, if you fall, it doesn’t hurt as much!

You can certainly get your feet wet when it comes to learning clutch and brake control on a “softer” surface, too.

Furthermore, you don’t need a learner’s permit if you are riding off road.

When and if you want to transition to the street riding, you’ll need it for that.

Another perk to starting to build your bike confidence on the dirt, training programs aren’t as expensive.

So, this is me, the little white angel on your shoulder whispering, “Go on, get on two wheels!” But remember, safety is paramount.

Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel competes on performance at a price

’’

Zack Spencer

By Zack Spencer

The introduction of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee showcased the direction of the new Fiat-Chrysler partnership.

It went on to win more awards that any other SUV; in fact, I chose it as one of my favourite vehicles that year. Sales have been strong for not only Jeep but the entire Chrysler group. Freshness has been into each new vehicle and this latest 2014 EcoDiesel version is another example. For this model year, the Grand Cherokee gets a refreshed front and rear, plus interior tweaks and a thrifty diesel under the hood.

Looks The most noticeable updates for 2014 include a thinner front grille, narrower front headlights with LED accents.

This really makes the latest model pop; especially when you compare it to the last model. The EcoDiesel option is only available in two trim levels, and this an expensive vehicle. The Overland is the cheapest diesel and it starts at roughly $58,000, $3000 more than a V6 model but the same price as the V8. The top of range Summit diesel starts at $62,000.

In comparison, the base VW Touareg diesel starts at $55,000 but most of the other German mid-sized SUVs with a diesel, like the ML from Mercedes or the X5 from BMW also start in the low $60,000 range.

Inside One of the biggest changes at Chrysler has been the attention to detail now placed on interior design and refinement. The latest U-connect computer interface is one of the best in the business; many high-end makers could learn a thing or two from

versions are less expensive and come with all the regular Grand Cherokee goodness. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

The already capable and luxurious gasoline versions are less expensive and come with all the regular Grand Cherokee goodness.

Chrysler. The large 8.4-inch screen is one of the biggest on the market and it is very quick to the touch, going from one function to the next is logical and responsive. Pairing a smartphone takes under 30 seconds and the best feature is the map screen, which enables the embedding of a picture in the same way as picture-in-picture TV does. The dash is covered in stitched leather and the cabin overall is simple and elegant. All EcoDiesel models come with leather seats and the back seats can even be heated.

Drive The biggest change for 2014 is the introduction of an all-new 3.0-litre direct inject turbocharged V6 diesel engine along with an 8-speed automatic. With 420 lb.-ft. of torque, this engine just rockets away from a light and cruises effortlessly on the highway. There is a big premium to get this engine over a V6, or lower trim level V8 gasoline versions, but there are some compelling reasons to choose it. Fuel economy is number one. This heavy truck is rated at 9.8 L/100km in the city and only 7.0L on the highway. With aggressive driving and mostly city, I averaged 12L. I did notice on highway runs that the fuel economy improved radically and quickly.

The towing capacity of the EcoDiesel is the same as the 5.7-litre Hemi V8 at 7200 lbs, but this truck gets substantially better fuel economy. For those that drive a lot without a trailer, the improvement in fuel economy is something to factor in. If you don’t drive a lot each year, the diesel option might not be worth the added cost.

Verdict Chrysler considers the Jeep Grand Cherokee a premium offering but I would not put this on a par with the Mercedes ML, BMW X5, Audi Q5 or a very nicely equipped VW Touareg.

It is a very nice truck with as much diesel power and efficiency as the competition but the German brands have been at the whole diesel thing a lot longer and are a known entity in the market.

The Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel would be a very easy choice if it were about $50,000, not $58,000. If you drive a lot or tow, the diesel might be worth it, but as it stands now the already capable and luxurious gasoline

Confessions of a Curber I guess you could say I was addicted. Only my drug of choice wasn’t coke or meth. No - it was the thrill of getting away with it all.

And the easy cash, of course.

Throwing the camper into that last deal was a great marketing idea.

And, like last time, I decided to branch out again. There’s so much more than just cars!

This time I decided to go with a motorcycle.

I purchased it off the internet – I guess you could call it a curber-to-curber transaction.

Oh, of course I knew every trick in the book by now. The seller gave me my old story and said that he was the real owner.

Did I care? Not a chance. It was a nice Harley. And, it was a steal. I knew I could flip it for more.

Why? Because I was a better marketer.

But I needed to do it fast. And, I had to make sure I had a buyer that was naive enough not to do a lien check through carproof.com, or the province (bcregistryservices. gov.bc.ca).

As usual, I put up a generic, one-line Craigslist ad. With a price like mine, I had a buyer within an hour.

I made sure the Harley looked its best. I polished it until it sparkled and filled it with gas. Hey, what’s a few bucks?

Then I ran into a small problem. I found out that my seller was the real owner. Wow. But he sold me a vehicle that was about to be repossessed.

Fortunately, he was in such a hurry that he didn’t make me do the transfer – so it was still in his name.

No big deal. Bridging* was my friend.

I just used his name and hoped my buyer would never ask me for ID. And I was right. The buyer smelled a bargain and took the bait like fish. He thought I was the fool!

No lien check, no ID check. Just cash.

I was home free, again.

And the best part? When the bailiff came for the motorcycle, he didn’t even know my name.

*Bridging – A trick that curbers use to keep their identity secret. Curbers will pay more for a vehicle from an unscrupulous wholesaler or broker if they are not required to immediately put the vehicle in their name.

This keeps their name out of the vehicle registry and makes them impossible to locate when deals go bad.

Breaking the law is never a concern for them.

Nagy

Wednesday Issue 3:00 p.m. on the preceding Friday

It is with great sadness that the family of Eleanore Catherine Nagy announces her sudden passing on Saturday, April 12, 2014.

Eleanore was born in Melville, Saskatchewan in March 1936, one of thirteen children born to Anthony and Catherine Macala. After growing up in Melville, Eleanore moved to Vancouver, BC where she worked for a short time before moving to Williams Lake. It was here that she met and married Andy and raised her two children, Jodie and Ryan. Eleanore enjoyed reading, was an avid gardener, and could always be found working on her latest knitting project. She was a good friend to many, volunteer at the Red Cross, and a dedicated Lioness member for many years, serving multiple terms as President. She will be sadly missed by family and friends. Eleanore was predeceased by her husband Andy just seven months ago. She is survived by her children Jodie and Ryan, her grandson Riley, step-children Barb Mickey, and Evan, and two sisters and one brother.

A combined Celebration of Life for both Eleanore and Andy will be held on Saturday, April 26, 2014 at the Williams Lake Seniors Centre at 3:30 pm. Cremation took place at the Cariboo Crematorium.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be greatly appreciated.
