A deal has been reached with a drug company to fund expensive medication for people with a unique form of cystic fibrosis.

Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc., which makes the drug Kalydeco, announced late Monday that it had officially reached an agreement with provincial and territorial governments to enable public drug plans to cover the cost of the drug.

The medication received attention in the Yukon after a local teen, Larissa Rueckenbach, went public with her need for the drug.

Rueckenbach has an extremely rare variant of cystic fibrosis called the G551D strain. The genetic disorder causes mucus build up in her lungs, painful arthritis aches and cystic fibrosis diabetes.

The medication has been called a miracle drug for this specific type of cystic fibrosis. It can’t reverse the damage already done, but studies

Veale said. “There is clear evidence of past retaliation in this small community where violence has become common-place and is fuelled by alcohol and a long-standing family feud.�

Veale said it is important to balance the community interest and convenience of having a trial in Burwash Landing and the safety of the accused and their witnesses. “But I am satisfied that the evidence of actual retaliation in this case and the small size of this violently divided community tip the balance in favour of holding this trial in Whitehorse, where the preliminary hearing was held.�

The case was scheduled for October in Burwash Landing in front of a judge alone.

Highways department defends Minto rock Ashley Joannou News Reporter

T

he Department of Highways and Public Works is standing behind its decision to use rock from Minto mine to work on a salmon-spawning creek.

Earlier this month, the Yukon Water Board halted bridge reconstruction work at Tatchun Creek after the Little Salmon Carmacks First Nation raised concerns about rock being used from the copper mine.

A recent study has found even trace amounts of copper in salmon habitat can affect the fish’s ability to navigate and detect predators.

The water board ordered Minto waste rock not be used in Yukon government construction projects while it continues to deliberate.

The order added additional conditions to the licence, including more testing and the development of a management plan for monitoring conditions.

The management and monitoring plan was approved on Friday but the order remains in place while more testing is done on the rock which was supposed to be used to fortify the shoreline.

Allan Nixon, assistant deputy minister of Highways and Public Works, said samples were collected over the weekend. When the results come back – likely by early next week at the latest – they will be submitted to the board.

“We’re hopeful that they will lift the interim order and let us go back to work.”

Nixon said his department is

“The thing that’s kind of troubling to us is that we’re getting painted with this cowboy brush and we’ve been very careful, we’ve

been very professional,” he said.

“We’ve done our due diligence on this. We’re not going to do something that’s going to potentially harm a very important stream like Tatchun.”

Nixon said the department has been up front since 2012 about

“We were issued a licence and we legally went to work.”

“If they would have given us those additional conditions back in February 2013 when they issued the licence, we would have been fine with it. We would have been happy with it. We’re fine with it now.”

Reconstruction of the Tatchun Creek Bridge, just north of Carmacks on the Klondike Highway, began this spring.

Nixon said there is a very small “fish window” when work can be done in the water. That’s the period when there isn’t any fish in the stream, the fry have migrated out and the adults haven’t come back yet.

The window opened on June 10 and closes four weeks later, he said.

“If you talk to the contractor he’ll tell you that we should have been working on the 10th and it will take four weeks to do this. I mean we can do anything with more manpower and equipment.”

The longer work is stopped, the more likely it is that the plans will have to be split over two years, he said.

For now, the critical piece is the area directly under the bridge.

“We have to get that done before the girders go in, because it will be difficult to put the rock in once the new bridge is in place,” Nixon said.

“We’re going to continue working on the bridge. The riprap in question that’s protecting that structure, that’s the challenge for us right now.”

tionally.

Additional charges included five 24-hour vehicle suspensions for alcohol or drug use while operating a motor vehicle, six drug seizures, including three from commercial transport trucks.

Three liquor act tickets were issued and one driver was charged with driving while suspended.

“The main purpose is just to keep the roads safer,” said Pollard, adding that these stops are routine and occur intermittently.

The “M” Division Traffic Services will continue to rollout checkpoints through the summer in various locations across the territory.

“Our goal is to make Yukon roads the safest in the country,” said Pollard.

One motorist, whose truck was pulled off the road due to a faulty emergency break, complained of the location of the checkpoint. Beyond cell phone range, he wasn’t about to get home to Whitehorse until five in the morning, after a co-worker drove out to pick him up.

Pollard said there were pay phones within walking distance of the checkpoint and phones are also provided by the police when needed.

Yukon’s bishop heads south called homosexuality a “disorder” and homosexual acts an “intrinsic moral evil.”

It led to more than 120 protesters packing the lobby of the Yukon legislature in protest, demanding the publicly funded school be allowed to form a gaystraight alliance.

Eventually, Scott Kent, then the Yukon’s education minister, overturned the bishop’s proposed policy and replaced it with a department-wide one that allowed gay-straight alliances to form at Catholic schools.

Gordon referred to the situation as “challenging,” and said that the job of any bishop anywhere is to strengthen Catholic institutions.

“It’s unfolding and it’s a work in process,” he said. “Evangelizing doesn’t happen overnight.”

At a Vanier school council meeting in March 2013 Val Royle, deputy minister of education, said that a new memorandum of understanding would be drafted to clarify exactly what roles and powers the bishop has at a pubMike Thomas/Yukon News licly funded Catholic school.

everend Gary Gordon is moving on.

On Saturday the bishop of Whitehorse received word from Pope Francis, in an apostolic letter, that he had been appointed bishop of Victoria.

Gordon is expecting to relocate in August. It’s not clear who will replace him.

In an interview on Monday morning, Gordon said he was surprised to learn about the change and a bit saddened to be leaving the Whitehorse community.

He has served as the bishop since 2006, after being elected by Pope Benedict XVI. “Being out in all the communities, in all four seasons, was a pretty special thing,” Gordon said. “There are some beautiful churches and wonderful people here.”

Gordon has spent the last year embroiled in the controversy involving Vanier Catholic Secondary School’s same-sex policy, which, on the school’s website,

policy for the Catholic Education Association of Yukon would be reviewed for the 2013-2014 school year.

The minutes state that “a more comprehensive review will happen over the coming months for the 2014-15 school year and beyond. The working group will be looking at expectations of teachers in the Catholic school and possible flexibility in the hiring policy.”

Previously, the Education Department said these measures had been slowed by the bishop. With his exit, however, no changes appear imminent.

Mark Hill, spokesman for the department, confirmed that an MOU had been drafted by Val Royle and sent to the episcopal corporation. As for changes to the hiring policy, that’s up to the CEAY or the episcopal corporation, not to the Department of Education, he said.

Gordon called the memories he created in Whitehorse an “enormous treasure” that he will carry with him.

Petition calls for more mental illness resources He will be on the road until November 20, when he will end his journey in Ottawa, his petition in hand.

Whitehorse was the 12th community he’s visited, and so far, he said, the most limited in mental health resources.

Yukon’s rate of self-injury hospitalization was also higher than the Canadian rate – at 175 hospitalizations per 100,000 population compared to 67 nationally.

After three days in Whitehorse, Forry, who had been standing in front of the legislative building, had collected 12 signatures.

In Dawson Creek, he collected two pages of signatures in two days. In Kamloops he collected 12 pages in three days.

“I’ve got a handful of signatures and that’s it,” he said. “It’s unfortunate. I’m just trying to help the community. That’s all.”

Forry mentioned the recent visit to Whitehorse by Olympic speedskater and cyclist Clara Hughes, who stopped in town during the Big Ride Across Canada, promoting a more open discussion about mental health.

He had hoped that would help

stimulate the discussion further.

To his mind, it hasn’t.

“What I’m trying to do is create an after-hours and weekend program and safe places beside a hospital,” Forry said.

During his time in Whitehorse, Forry stayed at the Salvation Army Shelter, and called it an “experience.”

“I’m grateful for the bed and hot shower and a meal, but it’s a drop-in centre for alcoholics.”

Forry, who will be in Alberta shortly as a guest speaker for a youth suicide prevention conference, was diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder at age 12.

He will be traveling to 11 legislative buildings over the next six months, visiting 32 communities in total.

He’s left his petition at the Second Option Society, Yukon Council for Disabilities, Yukon Learning, Bridges, and Salvation Army.

“They’ll all got the petition so hopefully it will make some noise in this town. You guys are part of Canada and Canada’s voice needs to be heard so it’s worth it. Even it’s only 12 signatures.”

Construction continues on the new seniors residence at 207 Alexander Street.

“There simply isn’t that much land anymore. So that’s changed, I suspect, for everyone who’s doing large-scale construction like this,” Hale said.

In the request for proposals, the housing corporation lays out preferences for where it would like to build.

The downtown core is listed as the top priority, followed by Riverdale and then the rest of

the city.

The cost of rent for these units will be linked to a person’s income.

To live in Yukon social housing, a person pays 25 per cent of gross income as rent.

As of May 31, there were 133 seniors on the waiting list for social housing. Of those, 64 people have been allocated a spot and are in the process of moving, officials say.

At the end of May, part of this latest tender was accidentally emailed to a company that may bid on the project.

To keep everything fair, those pages, that are now part of the larger package, were made public early.

The tender closes on July 9.

According to the document, the building is scheduled to be completed in October 2015.

In the latest territorial budget, $12 million was set aside for the project.

Meanwhile, the seniors housing complex at 207 Alexander is nearly ready to be occupied. Hale said everything should be done by September.

The 34-unit complex has 21 more apartments than it did in an earlier incarnation.

The territory had previously planned to use the older building as supportive housing for people with disabilities.

After residents moved to a new property at Waterfront Place, officials discovered it would cost more to renovate the building than tear it down and rebuild from scratch.

by a proposed measure. There are measures of redress set out for the instances where consent has not been obtained.

Although our Canadian constitutional law enshrines the duty to consult with First Nations in good faith when their rights are to be affected, the declaration takes this a step further. The declaration aims not only to address the harm previously done, but it seeks to level the playing field that has been slanted in favour of the state for so long. It aims to transform the relationship between states and indigenous peoples from one based on oppression and racism to one that is based on mutual respect, equality and fairness.

On National Aboriginal Day on Saturday, June 21, the commission will be part of a celebration in Whitehorse at Kwanlin Dun Cultural Centre.

There will be a photo booth where members of the public can have photos taken holding up one of the articles of the declaration. There will also be a reading of the declaration around the sacred fire. All Yukoners are invited to attend.

Combining bus services is a good idea of two full-length-bus systems in a town of 28,000 always seemed

by Graham like a needless doubling up of service – especially since the math Lang concerning city transit is always reported as grim news.

That our city transit program loses money year over year is not a secret. The 2013-2015 City of Whitehorse operating budget shows 2012 transit revenues of $1.4 million dollars with expenses or the 2013/2014 school year during that time of $3.4 million, the Department of Educafor a loss of approximately $2 tion ran a trial program million on the 2012 transit year. called the Student Transit Pilot The draft operations budgets for Project which gave certain high school students the option to ap- 2013, 2014 and 2015 assume simiply for free bus passes.

transportation for those with disabilities or are otherwise unable to drive. We just need to think of a way to provide that service in a way that makes sense for our small jurisdiction.

As a territory I think we sometimes get distracted by what other jurisdictions are doing, rather than looking at what will work for the Yukon. We see that B.C. has a residential tenancy department, so we create one here. We see that Alberta has a human rights commission, so we import that mechanism here.

For better or worse, we simply don’t have the populations of Alberta or B.C. that necessitates many of the same solutions and mechanisms. We only have 34,000 people spread across the entire territory. That is one-third of the amount of people who live in Red Deer alone. We have some of the same issues as those bigger jurisdictions, but nowhere near the same volume.

Busing is a good example of this maxim at work, as we have the same need to move people around town, but nowhere near

the same amount of people to move.

That is why the Student Transit Pilot Project is a step in the right direction. It identifies that Whitehorse really has two public busing systems, one for kids and one for adults, with the adult bus service operating at a steep loss. When faced with such a duplication of services we should sit down as a community and think of ways to combine territorial and municipal efforts so as to harness efficiencies and save some money.

I think the Student Transit Pilot Project is on the right track in this regard. The first step is to remove all kids in Grade 10 and up from the school busing system and give them all bus passes, paid for by the Yukon government.

This will, of course, only apply to kids who live within a certain distance from a bus stop, but the key is to make the switch mandatory.

This will fill up seats on city transit, bring much needed revenue into transit coffers, and allow the Yukon government to cut back on its own busing service. The high school kids also

come out ahead, as they now have a way to get to after-school activities, work or downtown on the weekends. And if they miss the first bus, they can always catch the next one.

Of course, the above only works if the Yukon government can use the city system to reduce the cost of their school-busing system. If the Yukon government continues to run the same size buses after the switch, or sees no savings, then the double-system still exists, which defeats the purpose of putting kids on city buses in the first place.

In fact, if both systems remain entirely intact, and the Yukon government has to kick money into the city transit system along with bearing the full cost of the school busing system, the program will actually end up costing more, rather than less, money.

That being said, the pilot project is a good step to addressing the city transit issues with a made-in-Yukon approach, an approach we should be taking to more issues in the territory.

“We are committed to doing that work.”

Enbridge president Al Monaco said the company will pursue dialogue with detractors but is prepared for “the eventuality” of legal challenges.

“Our advice is that this is not necessarily an endless process, as some are suggesting,” he said.

“There is a definitive process for Federal Court matters so I think there is a definitive timeline. This won’t go on forever in terms of endless legal battles.”

The decision already faces legal challenges. Several First Nations and environmental groups have filed applications with the Federal Court for judicial review of the federal panel report that recommended approval.

And the Gitxaala and Coastal First Nations have said they are preparing broader lawsuits.

The Sierra Club B.C. called the decision a “slap in the face” for British Columbians and environmentalist David Suzuki penned an open letter deriding the Conservative cabinet for “pushing an unwanted project on an unwilling public.”

“We are deeply disappointed, but you need to look no further than the spate of legal challenges filed against this project to know that cabinet’s approval is by no means a guarantee that this project will ever be built,” said Barry Robinson, a staff lawyer for the group Ecojustice.

The project was always going to be controversial.

The 1,200-kilometre pipeline would link Alberta’s Athabasca oilsands to a marine terminal on the northern edge of British Columbia’s Great Bear Rainforest.

To do so, it would cross the territories of more than 50 First Nations. Most of those are in B.C., where aboriginal bands never signed treaties with the Crown and where many land claims remain unresolved.

The pipeline will deliver bitumen – the heavy, molasses-like oil product from the oilsands – to oil tankers that are seven times the length of an NHL hockey rink.

Those oil tankers will then transport that product around the small islands that dot the narrow Douglas Channel and past the Haida Gwaii archipelago and a UNESCO world heritage site.

The economics are compel-

ling. Billions of dollars in revenues and GDP are at stake and groups including the B.C. Construction Association and the Chamber of Shipping both lauded the decision.

The joint federal review panel recommended approval in December, with the 209 conditions, and the Conservative government has made it clear for some time that finding new markets for Canadian oil is an economic priority.

The B.C. government, which officially opposed the project at federal review hearings, will now face increasing pressure.

The province has set out five conditions for B.C.’s support and on Tuesday Environment Minister Mary Polak said with the final approval from Ottawa, one of those conditions has now been met.

Polak said the project will need dozens of permits from the province, which won’t be issued to a project that has adverse environmental effects.

“Obviously if they are not meeting the five conditions, then they won’t be able to show in a permit application that they don’t have adverse environmental affects and therefore those permits wouldn’t be granted.”

Between a rock and pipeline: Feds distance themselves from Gateway Jennifer Ditchburn Canadian Press

OTTAWA nly two years ago, Prime Minister Stephen Harper described the Northern Gateway pipeline project as in Canada’s “vital interest.” His natural resources minister called opponents “radicals.”

But on the day that his government gave its sanction to the project – as long as Enbridge Inc. meets 209 conditions – nary a Conservative minister or MP was there to announce it.

The news came, instead, via a colourless release with the bureaucratic title “Government of Canada Accepts Recommendation to Impose 209 Conditions on Northern Gateway Proposal.” The usual prefix, “Harper Government,” was absent.

The surgical gloves approach speaks volumes on the tough position the Conservative government find itself in on the project.

On the one hand, it cannot distance itself entirely from a project and a review process that is has backed, nor abandon its support for the Canadian resource sector and the push to get Alberta oil to tidewater.

On the other hand, Northern Gateway is no done deal, and continuing to hitch a political wagon

O

to something that might never see the light of day doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Harper, who responded in question period to the issue before the announcement, focused squarely on the review process.

“This government has approved some projects, not approved others, and conditionally approved some, based on the findings of panels, based on the finding of fact,” Harper said.

The NDP and the Liberals immediately jumped on the announcement as an opportunity to make political hay. The New Democrats already have a website entitled “Take Back our Coasts,” with lines such as “Stephen Harper will do anything to push his big oil agenda. Don’t let him risk our coast, too.”

NDP Leader Tom Mulcair vowed to set aside the decision should he win office in 2015, and predicted it would be a ballot box question during the next campaign. He addressed reporters flanked by members of his BC caucus.

“It already is an election issue in British Columbia, that’s why the more than 20 Conservative MPs (from the province) are hiding under their desks right now,” Mulcair said.

The Liberals, meanwhile, take a slightly different tack – they are

opposed to Northern Gateway but not to the Keystone XL pipeline project into the United States.

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau says the main issue is that the Conservatives have made a mess of the natural resources file.

“This government has actually hindered our ability to get our resources to market by not doing its homework, by not standing up for long-term environmental sustainability and not building the right kind of partnerships with communities including First Nations communities,” said Trudeau.

Still, pipeline politics might not be as cut and dry as the NDP or the Liberals might hope in British Columbia. Former B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix drew fire when he suddenly opposed the twinning Kinder Morgan pipeline.

And while polls suggest a majority of British Columbians are opposed to the Northern Gateway project, that still leaves large numbers of voters who aren’t – leaving the Conservatives to brand themselves as the only choice of citizens who support natural resource development and the jobs it might bring.

engraved knives 207 Main St. 668-3447

Former Conservative cabinet minister Stockwell Day, who represented a B.C. riding, says there’s no way the government could have said no to the Northern Gateway project. He also doesn’t envision a major threat to Conservatives seeking re-election in the province.

“If they were seen to abandon this project just for political reasons, and in spite of the significant environmental go

ahead that it’s been given, the level of cynicism would be extremely high,” said Day, who is a supporter of the pipeline.

“If they cancelled a project of this nature just for political reasons, it would outstrip anything that (former Ontario premier) Dalton McGuinty and Premier Wynne will continue to face on the cancellation of their gas plants projects to the tune of about a billion dollars.”

Keep the tent flap open, federal parties learn after Ontario election Jennifer Ditchburn Canadian Press

OTTAWA f there’s an overarching lesson from the Ontario election being drawn around Parliament Hill, it’s to keep the party tent flaps open to all comers.

Liberal Leader Kathleen Wynne appeared to secure her majority victory by encroaching on conservative territory, while Tim Hudak’s Progressive Conservatives seemed to scare potential supporters away with a plan simply too right-wing and austere.

In Hudak’s case, some federal Conservatives wonder why his team didn’t follow the ecumenical model laid out by Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Where Harper has eschewed big, bold moves, Hudak promised to cut 100,000 public jobs to get a grip on the deficit – even suggesting school class sizes should be increased. Where Harper seemed to campaign from the middle of the road, Hudak stuck to the right lane.

Lisa Samson, a longtime Conservative strategist, says a major lesson to be learned is that policies must resonate with a wide cross-section of regular folks – such as Harper’s 2006 promises to cut the GST and to implement the $100-per-month childcare benefit.

“These were measures that were applicable to the vast amount of voters and so they know what they’re voting for and how it will impact them and their own pocketbook issues,” said Samson, a managing partner with consulting firm StrategyCorp.

“That’s something for the federal Liberals to keep in mind as they formulate their own campaign platform.”

Ontario Independent MP Dean Del Mastro says the Ontario PCs will need to go through the same process as the federal

Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne smiles as she speaks to reporters after winning a majority government at Queen’s Park in Toronto last Friday.

Tories did, emphasizing they’re for all Ontarians through a rebranding exercise.

“We’ve gone through four elections where (former premier) Mike Harris is still being attacked – Mike Harris hasn’t been premier for 12 years,” said Del Mastro, who stepped out of the Conservative caucus pending a court case.

“If they want to get past that, they have to demonstrate they’re a different party, with different people with different ideas and they’ve got to be more broadly

appealing.”

The NDP and the Liberals, meanwhile, are busy analysing the vote breakdown and what it could mean for building support federally.

Liberal strategist John Duffy, currently working on the Toronto mayoralty campaign of John Tory, said the Ontario election results suggest the federal party has opportunities not just with NDP supporters but also with Conservatives.

“It showed that the paradigm that suggests that the only op-

portunity for the Liberals is to consolidate support among New Democrats and Greens – that’s not true,” said Duffy.

“If the Conservatives actually run on ‘’cut to grow,“ as they did here in Ontario, the biggest province in the country, they’re not going to win. So it’s an expansion of strategic opportunity for the Liberals.”

Anne McGrath, national director of the NDP, said the Ontario election was another test of the tactic of trying to consolidate progressive voters behind

one party in order to stave off a Conservative win.

She argues Wynne was unsuccessful at collapsing the overall NDP vote, which actually went up, in the same way that former federal Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff also failed.

What does this mean for Tom Mulcair’s NDP? McGrath says it’s time for her party to turn the dialogue on its head, and argue for making the NDP the only choice for progressives.

“The building blocks are there – we’ve got the leader, we’ve got the caucus, we’ve got the cabinet ready, a team of people, we’ve got the organization, and I think a solid basis of support right across the country,” said McGrath.

Samson said there’s one more key message that all parties should consider, not just after the Ontario vote, but also after the British Columbia, Alberta and Quebec campaigns that foiled predictions: don’t take anything for granted.

“I’m seeing already in Ottawa people who think the 2015 election is a slam dunk. … What you do and don’t say in a campaign actually does matter.”

Allen told the Daily Sitka Sentinel.

The bear got a paw inside the kitchen, grabbed the spray hose off the sink and chewed off the nozzle.

cracking the bedroom door, and she ventured out once to get her elderly dachshund, Oscar, who slept through the ordeal – first on the sofa and then on the bed when Allen returned to the bedroom.

By the time police arrived, the bear was gone. Wildlife officials tracked and killed it for exhibiting bad behaviour.

State wildlife biologist Phil Mooney said the bear prowling in the afternoon and breaking into an occupied residence made it a danger to the public.

In midtown Anchorage, KTVA reports a black bear and cubs have been seen repeatedly this week between the adjoining campuses of the University of Alaska Anchorage and Alaska Pacific University.

Anchorage Police Chief Mark Mew said he ran into the bears on trails this week. The cubs were putting on a show, but people who

gathered to watch were respectful of the bears, he said.

“Everybody I saw was doing just the right thing,” Mew said. “A couple people just turned around and left, others stayed way back.

Nobody is going to approach a sow with cubs. They knew to stay back.”

The bears also went to Goose Lake, a popular beach near the campuses. Lifeguards cleared the beach without incident.

University police say the bears are well-known to them. Lt. Mike Beckner tells the Anchorage television station that the mother bear doesn’t seem aggressive.

“But you don’t want to go pet it. It’s one of those things. You have to use good common sense. We are in Alaska. There’s wildlife everywhere. But it’s got two cubs, so it could become aggressive if it needs to protect its children,” he said.

Michele Genest celebrates the bounty of the North with new book

Sam Riches News Reporter

R

ecently, while skate-skiing on Fish Lake, Michele Genest rested under a spruce tree and looked at the life around her: she was sitting on cranberry leaves, labrador tea was growing at her feet and a patch of juniper berries rose up next to it.

The seemingly endless bounty of the North, and the recipes that can be created with it, are captured in the local author’s second cookbook, The Boreal Feast: A Culinary Journey Through the North.

“The boreal forest is incredibly diverse and has so much to offer us,” she later says, moving through her home kitchen, tending to two pots of boiling berries and flat bread baking in the oven.

“Over the last 20 years since I’ve been here, I’ve very slowly gotten to know the environment and the area. It’s a constant process, and I’m learning how fragile it is, and important it is that we learn to love it and conserve it.”

Genest’s first book, The Boreal Gourmet, was a national bestseller and won silver in Taste Canada’s Food Writing Awards in 2011.

She’s followed it up with The Boreal Feast, which dives into different cultures across the North, from the Yukon to Scandinavia, and uses wild and cultivated ingredients from the boreal forest.

Chapter eight of The Boreal Gourmet included several recipes with ingredients from Scandinavia that served as a launching pad for The Boreal Feast.

“I thought why not go to those parts of the world and see what they do with those ingredients?”

In 2012, Genest travelled to Scandinavia for eight weeks, visiting Sweden, Norway and Finland, where she was taken by the traditions that had been passed down so fervently from generation to generation. Some recipes were more than 150 years old and continued to endure, almost unchanged.

The first four chapters of the The Boreal Feast are broken down by season – spring, summer, fall, winter – with the final chapter called The Boreal Pantry, which ranges from jams and jellies to

infused oils, flavored breads and liqueurs and aquavits, among other recipes.

As a timer beeps in the kitchen, Genest removes three pieces of flat bread from the oven, which she will be serving at her book launch on June 19 at

the Old Fire Hall from 5 to 7 p.m.

She tried the bread during her first night in Sweden, baked by her friend Hakan Sarnaker.

The crackers are made with corn flour, four different types of seeds and flavoured with anise, fennel and crushed juniper berries.

With the bread resting on the counter, she moves back to the stove, steam rising above the pots, high bush cranberries boiling in one, red currants in the other. She stirs a wooden ladle around the pot, the juice of the berries coating the spoon. As

the mixture thickens, the water slowly turns syrupy. Droplets that once fell individually begin to congeal, slipping from the spoon in a sheet of red.

“Almost there,’’ she says eagerly, as if she’s doing this for the first time.

Genest’s passion for cooking is evident not only in her writing but in her mannerisms in the kitchen. She cooks with love, which is good news for those attending her book launch and feasting on the samples provided.

After the official launch in Whitehorse, Genest will be on tour for the next several months, including a luncheon at the Swedish Embassy in Toronto later this month. It’s an event that she hopes will help her access the Scandinavian market.

She will travel across Canada, into Alaska and then back over to Europe, sharing some of the same recipes she learned during her last trip in 2012.

In a recent visit to Toronto see her brother, Genest taught him how to make a red pepper jelly, an experience that made him a “total convert.” Three days later he bought more ingredients to make it again, after giving the first batch away to friends.

The sharing of knowledge is part of what drives Genest forward, of what can be created, what can shaped and flavoured with the natural ingredients of the North. Self-sufficiency is part of that.

“More people are interested, are learning about cooking for themselves and controlling the ingredients,” she says. “There’s a desire for more intimate, handson knowledge of food and a desire to support local farmers.”

She speaks as she drains the syrup into glass jars. The aroma of the berries still floats through the kitchen.

Genest gently screws on the lid and waits for the seal to pop shut.

She watches with the same care as someone keeping a keen eye on a roast – every step matters, each leading to a final product made with care.

When the seal locks, she smiles. “This is going to be good,” she says, handing the jar away.

in that city’s pride parade. “It was a different feeling down there,” she said. “It didn’t really feel welcoming at all.”

At that parade, one of marchers walking alongside her attempted to offer some reassurance. “It’s still better than the year they threw tomatoes at us,” she was told.

Across the street from the parking lot, as the parade prepares to start, spectators in the neighbouring apartments lean over their balconies, while others

gather outside in lawn chairs.

As the parade rolls down Main Street, people rush outside from businesses, snapping photos and cheering the group on.

In the middle of the crowd, marchers hold up three-metre long pieces of fabric, each piece a swath of colour. It ripples above their heads with each step, forming a living pride flag.

The parade turns onto Front Street and eventually hops onto the Yukon River Trail before finishing at Rotary Park.

There, the crowd gathers again for a barbecue hosted by the PSAC Pride committee. Parade participants lie the strips of fabric down on the ground, forming another flag.

Harvey sits next to them, his decisions about moving to Whitehorse now sounding firm as he speaks with Hammond.

“Maybe next year I can be involved,” he says. “It’s been a great day.”

ment with what works best for their ailments.

Everything from Swedish massage to reflexology is offered at massage clinics.

Because massage involves being partially or completely undressed and having a massage therapist touch various areas of the body, it is important to find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable. Make sure that the therapist is fully certified and qualified.

It also helps if he or she is properly vetted by the spa or clinic. Therapists will heed a person’s preferences with regard to the massage, only concentrating on the areas specified. If anything feels uncomfortable or a client prefers not to have an area of the body touched, he or she simply needs to address that with the therapist at the beginning of the session.

The many benefits of massage therapy dvertisements for vacation destinations often paint couplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; massages as the premier romantic activity.

But massages arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just sultry oils and New Age music.

The Mayo Clinic notes that while more research is needed to confirm the benefits of massage, it may be helpful for a variety of health ailments. In addition to easing sore muscles, reducing joint pain and helping soft tissue strains or injuries, massage can promote relaxation, reduce anxiety and calm feelings of stress.

Massage reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol. This helps to lift spirits and can often lower blood pressure. Massage also may help to boost the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, which are associated with depression.

According to Health magazine, massage also can help promote healthy sleep. It has something to do with the effect of massage on delta waves, which are the brain waves connected to deep sleep. There is some evidence that massage can also increase white blood cell counts, promoting improved immunity.

Many people rely on massages to relieve pain. According to a report published in 2011 in the American College of Physiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Annals of Internal Medicine, massage helps people in pain feel and function better than those who do not receive treatment.

Massage can alleviate stiffness and pain and promote a better range of motion. And pain relief is not just for the back, arms and legs. Massage can reduce risk for migraines and decrease pain from tension headaches.

Massage even has beauty benefits. Rubbing the face and scalp can promote blood flow and encourage lymphatic drainage.

This can add vitality to the complexion and plump up the skin.

Just in time for World Cup: Canadian cowboy completes horseback ride to Brazil from Calgary Bill Graveland

most gratifying years of my life,” Leite said.

“I hope my journey inspires others to follow their dreams, no matter how hard or crazy it may seem.”

Leite’s family returned to Sao Paolo, Brazil, nine years ago and is to meet him at the end of his journey.

The inspiration for the trip was a similar quest in 1925 by Aime Tschiffely, a Swiss school teacher who rode 16,000 kilometres alone from Buenos Aires to New York City.

The young cowboy, who has a journalism degree from Ryerson

Canadian Press

University in Toronto, has been documenting his travels.

His goal was to draw attention to the illegal drug war in Latin America. He said a lot of innocent people are dying and 80 per cent of the drugs are ending up on U.S. streets.

He may have reached Brazil, but Leite’s trek isn’t quite over.

He still has 2,000 kilometres remaining to his home in Sao Paulo.

The timing of the trip sits well with him.

“I love soccer and left in 2012 from Canada just so I could arrive in Brazil for the World Cup.”

CALGARY Canadian cowboy can truly call himself a long rider as he has reached his destination country in an epic horseback journey to Brazil from Calgary.

Filipe Masetti Leite, 27, who immigrated to Canada from the South American country when he was a teenager, rode out of the Calgary Stampede grounds in July 2012 along with his two horses, Bruiser and Frenchie.

Bill Graveland/The Canadian Press He added a third horse to his Filipe Masetti Leite speaks to a reporter before riding out of team, Dude, from a ranch in New the Stampede grounds in Calgary Mexico.

Leite says his ride took him through 10 countries and covpresented by ered 14,000 kilometres in North, Central and South America.

“Setting out from Canada’s largest rodeo and one of the best in the world was a huge honour,” he said in an email.

“I feel like I’m dreaming,” he wrote as he crossed the border from Puerto Kijaro, Bolivia, into Corumba, Brazil.

Leite said he and his horses for the benefit of Special Olympics crossed Yellowstone National Park, encountered a grizzly in Montana and rode through the FRIDAY, JULY 4TH Chihuahua Desert in Mexico.

Declining an invitation doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require a lecture

is pleased to return the courtesy by solving your problem, though not by herself relieving you of the door.

Wait for a person who can be expected to hold a door, and take a half step in front of him before he

comes through. The movement will bring him up short, at which point you can catch his eye and then slowly release the door, eventually letting go.

This maneuver must be so

Preston Blackie crowned three-time champ Sam Riches News Reporter

W

hen Preston Blackie won last year’s Tour de Whitehorse, the victory was accompanied by an asterisk.

Blackie was sitting in second place over the first two stages of the three stage event, trailing Elijah Buffalo by 16 seconds. When family obligations prevented Buffalo from competing in the final race, Blackie emerged the winner.

“That’s not how I want to win,” he said afterwards. “If I’m going to win something, I want to beat my competitors on their best day.”

This year, he was able to do that.

Blackie, Buffalo and Ian Parker were neck-and-neck over the twoday Tour de Whitehorse, hosted

by Velonorth Cycling Club and made possible by volunteers from Autism Yukon.

In total, 20 cyclists took part in each stage, with more coming out on Saturday to ride in the road race.

The event began on Friday with a five kilometre hill climb, followed by a 17 km time trial, before finishing with a 70 km road race on Saturday.

Blackie maintained his winning streak in Friday’s first event, the hill climb, finishing with a time of seven minutes and 23 seconds. Just 13 seconds behind him was Parker, followed by Buffalo. In total, just 15 seconds separated the three

Riders in the Tour de Whitehorse Race last Saturday.

cyclists.

For the rest of the day, the three cyclists continued their back-andforth battle.

In the time trial, Buffalo rose from the back of the field to the top, finishing with a time of 24:21, a 35 second victory over Blackie.

Buffalo has had a strong season on his wheels. In June he led the field in a time trail hosted by U Kon Echelon Cycling Club. In that race, a 22.5 km stretch along the Alaska Highway, he battled strong winds to maintain a near

four-minute lead over his closest competitor, finishing with a time of 31:36.

Wind would once again be a factor in Saturday’s final event, with cyclists riding into a headwind of nearly 25 km/hr.

Trena Irving, who placed first overall in the expert women category, described the wind as “incredible.”

Despite the strength of the gusts, however, Blackie, Buffalo and Parker, continued their back and forth. By the time the trio had all crossed the finish line, they were separated by little more than a minute. Blackie led the field with a time of 1:22:41.

In total, 11 cyclists came out to compete in the expert men’s road race, with many commenting it was the best road race the event had seen in years, said Irving.

“To have 11 guys come out and compete in that race was great,” she said.

With all three events in the books, Blackie’s total time was 1:54:20. Buffalo was less than a minute behind.

Irving believes the finish bodes well for Blackie in the upcoming Kluane International Chilkoot Bike Relay, just days away, calling him a favourite for a top finish, if not first place overall in the solo category.

Irving, who says road cycling’s The new Yukon home of

popularity has declined in recent years, was optimistic about the future after the strong showing at Tour de Whitehorse.

“I’m trying to build the community back,” she said. “It was encouraging to see this much interest.”

Kakuro

By The Mepham Group

Sudoku Like puzzles? Then you’ll love sudoku.

This mind-bending puzzle will have you hooked from the moment you square off, so sharpen your pencil and put your sudoku savvy to the test!

Complete the grid so each row, column and 3-by-3 box (in bold borders) contains every digit 1 to 9. For strategies on how to solve Sudoku, visit www.sudoku.org.uk.

WEDNESDAY CROSSWORD PUZZLE

To solve Kakuro, you must enter a number between 1 and 9 in the empty squares. The clues are the numbers in the white circles that give the sum of the solution numbers: above the line are across clues and below the line are down clues and below the line are down clues.

Thus, a clue of 3 will produce a solution of 2 and 1 and a 5 will produce 4 and 1, or 2 and 3, but of course, which squares they go in will depend on the solution of a clue in the other direction.

No difit can be repeated in a solution, so a 4 can only produce 1 and 3, never 2 and 2. © 2013 The Mepham Group. Distributed by Tribune Content Agency. All rights reserved.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Opportunity in a time of change Let the magic of the midnight sun and the northern lights entice you towards an exciting professional opportunity. The Yukon Registered Nurses Association (YRNA)â&#x20AC;&#x201C;the regulatory body and professional voice for Registered Nurses and Nurse Practitioners in the Yukonâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;is seeking a dynamic individual to serve as our new Executive Director, working in one of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last frontiers.

The Yukonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s updated Registered Nurses Profession Act was enacted in 2012 and the Standards for Practice in 2013. A new territorial Clinical Services Plan was just released in 2014. These legislative enhancements provide the opportunity for a courageous leader to guide the development of a renewed vision for the role of nursing at a time of transformation in the delivery of healthcare, using a collaborative approach.

Significant and relevant experience and education in governance and management will be key assets in supporting this policy-driven, Board-led operation. The YRNA enjoys an ongoing, mutually beneficial relationship with the Canadian Nurses Association where the Executive Director serves in an advisory role. The Executive Director also serves on the Board of the Canadian Council of Registered Nurse Regulators.

The ability to partner with stakeholders on health policy is integral to this role, as is an understanding of legislative and regulatory issues. The successful candidate will be expected to possess the capability for highlevel thinking, attention to detail and the ability to motivate others to strive towards nursing excellence.

Applicants need to excel at creating strong inter-personal and interprofessional relationships, to be competent leading independent projects, to actively serve on committees and to utilize a team approach.

RĂŠsumĂŠs with cover letters, addressed to the President of YRNA, must be received by June 20, 2014. Please submit by mail, email, or fax.
