Teachers are in for the long, long haul By Anna Killen
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - Teachers in Terrace say they will picket throughout the summer, as long as the ongoing dispute between the province and teacher’s union remains unsettled. “We’re going to be picketing wherever we can and whenever we can,” said veteran teacher Frances Gosse, speaking outside the Coast Mountains School District office July 4. “We’re off work, we don’t have pay at the moment and we’re having a picket rotation.” After months of job action and lockouts, the BC Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) and the provincial bargaining arm BC Pub-
lic Service Employees’ Association (BCPSEA) wanted to reach an agreement on a new teacher contract by June 30. That date now passed, the two sides last week did agree on a mediator, BC Supreme Court Justice Stephen Kelleher. But after meeting with both sides, Kelleher concluded mediation “is not indicated at this time,” read a joint statement released July 2. In some school districts where limited summer school is going ahead, teachers will be picketing those locations, indicated BCTF president Jim Iker in a news conference last week. But in Terrace, where summer school is not offered, teachers will be doing shift rotations in
front of the school board office and at various schools throughout the district. “The shifts are three hours and we’ll be told what to do on an ongoing basis,” said Gosse. “Some people have prior engagements and commitments that they can’t get out of but those of us who are here want to see this through.” As long as picketers are in front of school district buildings, maintenance and other workers represented by Canadian Union of Public Employees are not able to enter, which is delaying routine summer maintenance work, confirmed school board chair Art Erasmus. He said it’s too early to talk about contingency plans for

work on schools which needs to be done, saying that the district is going to see what happens between the two sides over the next few of weeks. The BCTF has said it will make negotiators available throughout the summer to work towards an agreement, but the two sides continue to remain far apart on wages, benefits and class size and composition costs. The BC Supreme Court has twice ruled that the provincial government violated teachers’ constitutional rights when it removed class size and composition language from the teachers’ contract. The province has appealed that ruling, and the BC Court of Appeals is expected to rule on that this fall.

Edmonton cyclists gather for group photo on Haida Gwaii at the start of a lengthy trip which would take them back to Alberta. The group also raised thousands of dollars for health care and it delivered a totem pole being donated to an Edmonton health care facility.
Group raises thousands and also delivered a totem pole By Martina Perry THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - After cycling for just under 2,000 km and raising more than $400,000 for the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Haida Gwaii Totem Tour wrapped up in Edmonton on Canada Day. Thirty-six people rode throughout the 1,760 km tour, a number who were over 70 years old, that started on June 16 in Masset at the Yellowhead Highway Mile 0 sign and ended in Edmonton on Canada Day. The purpose of the journey was to raise funds for the Stollery Children’s Hospital in Edmonton and deliver a totem pole carved by Haida artist Ben Davidson to be donated to the facility. Nick Lees, who is an Edmonton Journal columnist, organized the Haida Gwaii Totem Tour after visiting his friend Dr. Peter Lake in Haida Gwaii a number of years ago. While the pair was visiting the north end of Haida Gwaii, Lees was inspired to donate a totem pole to the Stollery Children’s Hospital.
Finning is pleased to announce that Roger Hladun has joined our team as a Customer Account Manager. Roger was born and raised in Houston and grew up working on the family ranch and in the family logging business. He started in the forest industry at a very early age and eventually took over ownership of the business. After 25 years in the industry, Roger moved into equipment sales for several years before joining us at Finning. We’re thrilled to add Roger to our Northwest Team and invite you to call or stop by and see him at any time.

Davidson asked the parents of three children who died prematurely from different illnesses to create butterflies, with the parents donating some of their ashes to be mixed in the paint used on the totem pole. Anchoring the totem pole, Davidson carved a bison to tie in the prairie First Nations people. The 10 ft, 900 pound totem pole was transported by truck along with the riders, one of
which was Davidson. Participants rode for as much as 165 km in one day, finishing nearly three weeks later in Churchill Square on Canada Day, where the Works Art and Design Festival was taking place. “We arrived at an arts festival with a 10-ft piece of art,” said Lees. The group raised $402,000, and Lees said donations are still coming in. The top fundraiser, a 13-year-old named Alex Webb, raised $40,000 alone.
The owners of MacCarthy GM would like to thank Leon Schulte and recognize his 30 years of GM service at this dealership. Leon was born and raised in Terrace and graduated from the automotive program at Caledonia Senior Secondary in 1984. From there he immediately came to work at McEwan GM with Jim McEwan. As the years passed he continued to work at the dealership and train through GM’s Goodwrench certified programs. When the MacCarthy’s took over in 2002 Leon continued to excel as a GM Certified technician. 30 years after he’s started as a young graduate Leon continues to uphold a high standard of quality with his work.
Thank you Leon, and we look forward to many great years to come.

Group builds knowledge of Kitimat infrastructure to encourage walking By Cameron Orr THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - In a follow-up to a recent council meeting presentation on Kitimat’s walkways, council and the Kitimat Heritage Group donned walking shoes rather than business shoes for a quasi-committee of the whole meeting on June 30. Quasi in the sense that instead of sitting indoors they toured Kitimat’s sidewalks and walkways both down the hill and up in a review of the current state of the infrastructure. Peter Ponter with the Kitimat Heritage Group said it was a productive tour. Among their concerns were portions of a walkway near Albatross Street that involves a flight of steps. “The concern was that anybody on a scooter...they could not realize that situation, so the idea was we suggest they put up some caution signs,” he said. Among the group’s overall priorities is to make sure walkways aren’t lost in community expansion. “What we’re concerned about is trying to maintain the current system and also as new developments go in bring them up to a similar standard,” he said. There’s no existing plans to decommission any walkways at the mo-
JonesBo y s Boats
ment but other plans about maintanence couldn’t be answered during the tour as no representatives of District of Kitimat’s engineering department was on the tour. That said Ponter is happy with the turnout of the tour, which included all but one councillor, which he sees as indicative of a focus on the group’s goals. “It was good to see so many councillors,” he said. “We seem to be getting more attention.” Mayor Joanne Monaghan, who was on part of the tour, said the walkways will continue to be an important part of Kitimat, especially as the community ages. “As we’re an aging community I think we have to take that [mobility] in to consideration,” she said. “When people can get around on their scooters and things they don’t feel so confined, and I think it’s wonderful and if we can keep that going it’s going to be good.” She said she appreciates the heritage committee for keeping the sidewalks a priority for Kitimat’s heritage and hopes they continue to do so. Many communities now have active transportation committees aimed at boosting the ability for people to get around their community on foot or by other means, including cycling. Walking is good exercise and it also reduces the carbon footprint.

Agencies warn boaters to stay safe on the water By Kevin Campbell
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - Northern Health, in connection with the RCMP’s marine division are reminding boaters and recreational swimmers in B.C. about safe boating practices, now that the summer months are in full swing. An emphasis on the harmful effects that alcohol has on the body comprises their main message. “Adding alcohol in the mix is not only dangerous but can also be fatal,” said Northern Health regional lead for men’s health Holly Christian. “According to the B.C. Coroners Service, between 2009 and 2012 there were 12 deaths related to recreational boating (power-boating, canoeing, kayaking and row-boating) in northern B.C. and ... 11 of those deaths were the result of drowning, alcohol and/ or drugs were determined to be factors in half (six) of those deaths.” Christian and Northern Health’s Andrew Burton along with the Prince Rupert RCMP’s marine division Robert Pikola led a teleconference on the results of improper and unsafe boating practices last week with Pikola stressing that operating a motorized vehicle of any kind while under the influence will not be tolerated. “When it comes to impaired boating, it goes un-
der the criminal code. Just like a motor accident or a vehicle incident where there’s an impaired driver, you would treat boating the same way. You can be looking at criminal charges, a criminal record and you can be looking at jail time,” said Pikola. The officer added that an open boat with no accommodations is prohibited for alcohol to be consumed on, as the open water is considered a public place. If the boat has cabins with sleeping arrangements, the alcohol must be consumed while the boat is anchored to a dock. An alarming 82 per cent of all recreational deaths were male within that three-year time frame while 18 per cent were women. “More males are hospitalized due to unintentional injury. We also know that men participate more often in those high risk recreational activities and they’re less likely to wear protective gear such as life jackets and helmets,” said Christian. “Alcohol is a depressant which means it’s trying to put you to sleep most of the time but your body responds to that depressant by overproducing adrenaline so that you don’t fall asleep and that creates this emotional experience that’s pretty challenging to live with,” said Burton, adding that a person’s ability to recognize dangerous situations is reduced when consuming alcohol, as well as their
judgement, reaction time and ability to control their level of awareness. Pikola noted that in Prince Rupert, both the RCMP and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans conducts boat-checks before they depart. “More for safety equipment ... but at the same time we’re looking for signs of impairment or if we see anybody with a large amount of liquor, we’ll be telling them about the consequences of what could happen,” said Pikola.

SFU’s Beedie School prepares Prince Rupert for global trade opportunity
A
s the Prince Rupert region continues to show signs of growing into a major trade centre operating as an important part of global trade networks, more opportunities in business will present themselves to residents. Conversely, as the region grows into this global trade hub, competition for the best jobs will increase and expectations for performance and qualifications will rise. While there will be many shorter term opportunities – especially in trades related to the construction of major facilities – there will be relatively smaller numbers of long-term career opportunities. LNG liquefaction facilities employ about 10 times as many people during the peak of the construction phase as they do in the steady state of operations, for example. To compete successfully for the smaller number of long-term career opportunities that are opening up will require skills and credentials that have not previously been readily available in communities such as Prince Rupert. The Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University is responding to this emerging need by offering to deliver its widely recognized Master of Business Administration (MBA) in Prince Rupert, in collaboration with Northwest Community College. “As northern regions in B.C. experience unprecedented growth, it is important for business schools to work with communities to prepare their residents for the opportunities coming their
way,” says Mark Selman, Director of Corporate Programs and Advisor to the Dean at the Beedie School of Business. “The Beedie School of Business MBA program responds to the changing face of B.C.’s business environment, and will ensure that Prince Rupert residents possess the advanced business skills required to benefit from the increasing level of investment in the region.” SFU has experience delivering similar programs in the region, having previously offered a well-received MBA in Kitimat in partnership with Alcan and other local organizations. Over the course of 2014, the Beedie School of Business will be assessing the level of interest in the communities with the intention of starting the program in April 2015. The school will be working with progressive employers who see the need to help their employees grow into the new opportunities forthcoming within their organization. The MBA program will also be open to individuals who wish to enroll individually, and the school is seeking to establish an awards program that would help offset the cost of the program for well qualified individuals who lack the financial support of their employers. For more information about this program, please attend the information session on July 16 at 5:30 pm at the Prince Rupert Northwest Community College campus on 353 5th St. or call 778-782-9698.
Regional Executive MBA Northwestern BC The Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University is pleased to offer a regional Executive MBA focusing on northwestern British Columbia. The program is designed to provide the knowledge, skill and recognition required by experienced leaders who have to make tough decisions in a competitive environment.

SQCRD looking for input on Rupert recycling By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - When recycling in Prince Rupert, residents bear a little more responsibility than most in other areas of B.C. and as Amanda Ding points out, that can be both a good and a bad thing. Ding, a Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District (SQCRD) team member, has created a survey asking residents in both Prince Rupert and Port Edward for their thoughts about the recycling process as it exists, and where it might be headed in the future. “We’re trying to get feedback from the public about ... the importance of proximity of their home in relation to drop-off locations and in general ... how important it is to for them to talk about sustainability in their house, how important it is for them to buy less packaging,” said Ding. The survey outlines a possible future where curbside recycling is a possibility, but it will most likely come at a cost to the taxpayer. The district is trying to figure out how much people would be willing to spend to make that happen. Though, curbside pick-up does have its drawbacks, said Ding.
“It gets rid of that extra responsibility to drop it off because residents here are very aware of sustainability and they want to recycle as much as possible. They take that extra step to drop it off which is very unique in that the whole city’s doing it, minus the people without cars or maybe some of the senior residents.” For many, the benefits might outweigh the drawbacks, especially since the SQCRD Depot lies outside the city’s perimeter. “We had curbside 25 Amanda Ding years ago and right now residents are dropping it off but there’s no real incentive to dropping it off and it’s actually inconvenient because they have to take their time to drive [to the depot],” said Ding. The findings will be analyzed in August and presented to the public after a district board meeting. British Columbian corporations that supply packaging and printed paper to B.C. residents are also responsible for collecting and managing their materials to be recycled under the non-profit organization, Multi-Material BC (MMBC)’s mandate. MMBC is one of many stewardship agencies introduced in B.C. over the past 20 years. Prince Rupert and Port Edward residents can take the survey at sqcrdrecycling.blogspot.ca.

Terrace Public Library head librarian Margo Schiller has returned to Kamloops for a position as head librarian of a branch there.
Librarian returns south By Margaret Speirs THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - The Terrace Public Library board will be looking for a new head librarian as the one who’s been here for six years is moving back down south. Margo Schiller will take over as branch head at the same library in Kamloops where she worked for threeand-a-half years before moving here to take over as head librarian from Ed Curell, who retired after 29 years at the library in 2008. She decided to take the new job to be closer to family, she said. “It seemed like a good opportunity and Jason, my partner, has family in Kamloops,” she said. Most of the projects she’s been working on for the library are almost wrapped up with the last one being the finish of the Ed Curell Lounge, which was also the last big project that the library board had in its strategic plan, said Schiller.
“I’m really proud of a lot of things,” said Schiller about what she’s accomplished in her time here. “I’m really proud of the Ed Curell Lounge and elevator and accessible washrooms.” “I think the local history stuff we did a couple of years ago was pretty important.” In 2012, the library hired a history librarian for four months to organize various historical items the library had stashed away. An open house held that October gave the public to see the items, which included pioneers’ belongings. Schiller said she’s learned a ton of new skills here. “This position has taught me so much about government so many more skills and knowledge than when I started,” she said, adding these new skills will help her in the future. She will miss Terrace and her work at the library. Her job has been posted and applications will be reviewed by the hiring committee.
TWO BEDROOM RECREATION HOME woodwork in the gables and brick accents on the wood pilas-
This two-bedroom recreation home, with a sloping metal roof to shed snow, includes room for expansion on the main, or upper, floor in the form of a future bedroom and roughed-in bathroom. A covered entry, always welcome in inclement weather, is located next to the two-car garage and leads into a foyer. A coat closet is to the left, with the staircase to the basement directly ahead. Upstairs, the great room features a lofty vaulted ceiling, and looks out through dramatically configured windows to the front garden. A gas fireplace will make this room a magnet for family activities in the cooler months, while the covered deck, with access from the dining area, will be ideal for outdoor gatherings and meals in summertime. The dining-room ceiling is also vaulted, lending the area an airy aspect. The kitchen enjoys access to a partly covered deck at the back of the home, also with a vaulted ceiling. With its prep island, generous counter space and two-door pantry, the kitchen will be a pleasure to cook in. The two large bedrooms share a four-piece bath. One looks out to the sundeck and back garden, while the other has windows on two sides. Downstairs, the unfinished basement area has access to a covered patio. Exterior finishes include horizontal siding with decorative
ters. Contrasting painted trim matches the metal roof. This home measures 57 feet wide and 42 feet deep, for a total of 1,302 square feet, not counting the unfinished area and future bedroom on the main floor. Plans for design 10-2-225 are available for $595 (set of 5), $680(set of 8) and $748 for a super set of 10. Also add $30.00 for Priority charges within B.C. or $55.00 outside of B.C.

As a result, the judges are looking for wellspoken, well-rounded, intelligent and outgoing women,” explains Storsley. “I knew the moment I met Jordi that she would be an incredible representative for her town - and now, for the entire northern region of BC.”

Ronald McDonald House has helped out families in Kitimat By Cameron Orr THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - It may be hard to picture why a housing resource in Vancouver may be at all important to a family in Kitimat. But when the facility is a place to house sick children undergoing treatment at the BC Children’s Hospital, that resource suddenly makes a whole lot of sense to people in the north. The Marleau family of Alex, 17, older sister Jocelyn and parents Lorna and Terry, know very well the advantages of the Ronald McDonald House. When Alex was seven a curious downturn in his health during a camping trip prompted his family to get in checked out at the Kitimat hospital. They quickly learned that Alex had acute lymphoblastic leukemia and needed to get to Vancouver immediately to receive treatment. The diagnosis set off a frantic scramble to get to Vancouver and get Alex in to treatment.
Until the family figured out more long-term arrangements Lorna and Terry stayed in a hotel before finally moving in to the Ronald McDonald House with Alex while he was receiving treatment. The experience of staying there — which they still do during Alex’s annual check-ups in Vancouver — shaped the entire experience of having a sick child, said Lorna. “Our experience would have been completely different, or mine personally, not having been at the house,” said Lorna. “It wouldn’t have been as endurable.” Alex said he doesn’t remember too much of those early days of his illness. He has small memories or going to Vancouver but being more excited about the trip, not quite understanding at the time what was happening. “I remember being really excited about going to Vancouver,” he said. A regime of pills and needles that followed broke down that excitement and Terry said he had to
use Alex’s Gameboy as an incentive sometimes to get him to take medicine. But as far as treatments go he went through with flying colours. Today Terry calls his son the “poster boy” for leukemia because of how smoothly the treatment went for him. “Praise to God, he’s gone through it and went through it well without a lot of setbacks,” he said. In the background to his illness though was their accomodation at the house, and the co-residents quickly became good friends of the Marleau’s. That’s not to mention the staff and volunteers that keep the place running. “The staff there are amazing. Absolutely amazing,” said Lorna. “Anyone who’s truly involved in cancer treatment for adults but especially children are amazing anyway.” As ‘residents’ of the house the place has a way of making people pay it forward for support. When they arrived they re-

Northwest soccer players ready for Games By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - They may not have the financial backing of the Vancouver Whitecaps, but the Northwest boys’ under-12 soccer squad will be in Nanaimo to win, just like any Lower Mainland team at the upcoming BC Summer Games in Nanaimo next week. With the players picked and positions all set, all the boys have to do is show up ready to play, but it may be a tough assignment medalling in the eight-team field. “They’re going to be in tough, but the kids from Rupert will do well,” said Prince Rupert soccer developmental coach Gordan Armstrong. Those kids will be Kaito Zatylny, Sherangad Sahai, Jarred McMeekin and Brendan Eshom, and between the four of them, they form a complete starting lineup. Zatylny, the youngest of the bunch at only 10-years-old has seen praise heaped on him already for his natural instincts and ability. “Kaito’s a great young player. He distributes the ball really well and he’s got a great shot,” said Armstrong. Team Northwest’s coach, Richard Velho, also thinks Zatylny’s the real deal. “He is one of the most skilled

The Northwest boys’ under-12 soccer team is heading to Nanaimo to compete at the BC Summer Games. players on the field. He has a great understanding of the game and coupled with his amazing ball control, he has the ability to make plays on the fly,” said Velho. The coach has slotted Zatylny at the forward position. Sahai, the player who can be identified by his big, wide grin, will be a midfielder for Northwest.
“Sean [Sahai] can dance, is his big thing. He’s not the fastest in the world but he’s got I’d say probably some of the best skill in the north,” said Armstrong. “With Sean, he spent some time down south [in B.C. tournaments] but he obviously spends a lot of time in the yard, kicking a ball, juggling. I’ve watched him get trapped by
two guys, start juggling the ball and flip it over their heads, doing a 360 off them and running away and I think he was even laughing a couple times doing it.” “He holds the team together in centre-mid by being able to take control of the ball and set his fellow teammates up for new plays,” added Velho.
McMeekin is the speedy one. He’ll try and be a rock on defence for Northwest as he attempts to control wave after wave of highlyskilled opponents at the Games. “Jarred is a feisty defenceman,” said Velho. “He has a never-give-up attitude when it comes to protecting his end of the field. I believe he has picked up this attitude from being on the Prince Rupert swim club which always challenges him to better himself.” As for Eshom, the lanky defenceman sure isn’t timid when it comes to his compete level, and that drive led Velho to name the young Rupertite captain. “Brendan has a positive attitude and the ability to bring intensity to the game,” said Velho. “He’s a very physical presence on the field,” added Armstrong. Velho tempers his expectations for the tourney, but also adds the team has a real opportunity to do some damage against the more popular squads. “I think if we were a team in the World Cup, we would definitely be Costa Rica. They are an underdog who have come together to play the game they love and show the world they too can stand up to more wellknown teams,” said Velho. “I believe our players ... will make Northern B.C. proud.”
Whittington muscles her way to third in the province By Anna Killen

Annual Hill Climb sees success Contributed

KITIMAT - The annual Dave Saunders Memorial Hill Climb was another great success, kicking off July 1 festivities in Kitimat. The results are:
A class 1st Arron Baverstock 2nd Harley Bell 3rd Pierre Amado B class 1st Randy Sarell 2nd Doug Ribeiro 3rd Karri Nelson Snobike
1st James Gaidner 2nd Peter Walsh 3rd Robin Aurther Juniors 1st Delaney Ribeiro 2nd Lou Ribeiro 3rd Quinn Amado King of the Hill James Gairdner
TERRACE - A day in the life of Terrace body builder Charis Whittington during the months leading up to competition is intense. She gets up at 4 a.m. to do her first hour of cardio, makes breakfast with her family, goes to work at the local gym she owns with her husband where she trains clients all day and fits her own workout in between clients, and then does another round of cardio before picking up her daughter and going home – and she does it all while following a strict diet, a diet that gets stricter as she gets closer to competition day. But all of that hard work is worth it with Whittington recently placing third in the province at provincial championships after placing first at qualifiers in Fort St. John weeks earlier. “I went in there feeling pretty confident especially since it was three weeks after the last show,” she said. At
CHARIS WHITTINGTON that tournament, she came in first in her class, physique, setting her up for her first provincial show the last weekend in June in Vancouver, where she ultimately came home with third. Whittington says her class, physique, is for women who are in the middle – not totally big and bulky but not tiny either. To excel, judges are looking for the “whole package,” she said. “Nice muscle tonage, nice lines, muscle fullness” and things like femininity, hair, nails, and skin tone and texture. “Everything,” she said. She now has a two year
window to take a shot at nationals, a competition she declined to attend this year but might attend next year. “It’s a hobby,” she said. “You do it for yourself, you have to enjoy the process and enjoy how training and eating can change your body.” And the competitions are a chance for her to interact with and support fellow bodybuilders from around the province – and it’s a surreal feeling being up on stage after preparing for so long, she said. “It all comes down to those few minutes on stage,” she said. “It’s kind of crazy, it goes so fast. Before you know it you’re on stage, before you know it, you’re finished. “It’s neat because you get this connection with these people. In Terrace, we’re a small town ... You go to these [provincial] events and you see ‘I’m not the only crazy one, there’s two, three hundred people who are also doing this’,” she said. “It’s a neat feeling.”
