Funding crux of school transit concerns Oak Bay council narrowly approves letter endorsing controversial pilot co-ordinator position Christine van Reeuwyk News staff
Coun. Michelle Kirby is bound and determined to change the travel patterns of students in Oak Bay. More questions than answers left her fellow council members unsure and narrowly supporting her motion to write a letter to the Capital Regional District endorsing a school travel planning co-ordinator position. It was a direct response to a query from Victoria Mayor Dean Fortin whose council did pen an endorsement of the project to the CRD. “This is putting your energy and support behind kids and their well being,” said Kirby. “We really have to be assertive.” That letter of support came after Kirby spearheaded a meeting at Oak Bay municipal hall inviting approximately 40 potential partners.

Kirby emphasized that at this “You can’t do this without point she only wants council to some co-ordinated effort,” she voice support, and that she’s added. “I’d really like to have my hopeful grants could fund the own council’s support for this project. initiative.” “We’re not there yet.

Marine group donation floats sea rescue’s boat Christine van Reeuwyk News staff
Oak Bay Sea Rescue and its many volunteers celebrated a secure and safe new boathouse – still bearing a fresh-wood smell, last Friday. Rescue staff with the volunteer organization ferried guests around the Oak Bay Marina to the boathouse where they could lean over the mezzanine rail and watch the vessel lift in action. But before the water tours, Oak Bay Marine Group had a surprise announcement for the society that supports Oak Bay’s Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue Station 33. “This is a great day for the community. They work tirelessly and they give their energy and their time their volunteer hours to making our world and our waters this recreational playground, a much safer place for us to
be part of and enjoy,” said Peter Ciceri, CEO of OBMG. “We’re very, very grateful to the contribution you make to us, and to the community as a whole.” To resounding cheers and applause, he handed the giant cheque made out for $30,000 to Oak Bay Sea Rescue society president Terry Calveley. “I’m not usually speechless but today I am,” she said. “This support from the Oak Bay Marine Group has gone way beyond our expectations and we truly are humbled and grateful.” Ciceri said the marine group is grateful for the partnership. The rescue organization, which started in 1977, was out to celebrate replacing the old boathouse after a major fundraising push for the shiny new building now gracing the marina. “We simply outgrew our

last boathouse,” said Calveley. “Between break and enters and thefts, equipment being stored off site at members’ homes – mine – and our training meetings being held away from where our vessels are, it was just not sustainable to carry on operations with our old facility.” The Oak Bay Sea Rescue Society supports RCMSAR 33, one of more than 45 RCMSAR stations in the province, their mandate includes promoting boating safety and education. They were the first Marine SAR station to develop and maintain a junior program and they also support the Kids Don’t Float initiative.

like this.” Mayor Nils Jensen however, felt that the place to get some of those answers would be the CRD. “We do not have the capacity to answer (those questions) at our staff level,” he said, also hoping not to “open another can of worms.” Oak Bay will send a letter of endorsement to the CRD; Murdoch, Green and Herbert opposed. Herbert was the most vehemently opposed to the idea. “This is the parents responsibility,” he said, pondering aloud the number of paid staff at the CRD who started as pilot positions. “It’s going to be a pilot, but then it never goes away. … I question the logic of this.” cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

Oak Bay High school students won’t let kids with cancer down Laura Lavin
$ #CA84403
Oak Bay High Cops for Cancer 2014 campaign leaders Jessica Manness, Taylor Chan and Claire Wood.
Despite limited access to their school and more limited means of communication between students due to the teacher’s strike, some 50 Oak Bay High students turned out at an organizational meeting to raise money for kids with cancer. “Social media is key definitely,” said Jessica Manness, 17, one of this year’s campaign leaders. “We had a few meetings with key members then we had a big group meeting and we decided to go forward.” Oak Bay High is well-known for its large annual donation to the Canadian Cancer Society’s Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock, a long distance bike ride which raises money for pediatric cancer research and programs for children with a history of cancer. The Tour de Rock team cycles from one end of Vancouver Island to the other, over 14 days, covering 1,000 kilometres. “Normally, for Cops for Cancer, there is 15 different things going on at the school. But we’re not in school this year so we’ve brought it down to about five main events,” said Taylor Chan, 17, another campaign leader.
Along with Claire Wood, 17, the three campaign leaders are doing their best to keep the energy going in the campaign and doing what they can to make sure when the Tour de Rock riders arrive in Oak Bay on Oct. 2, Oak Bay High students will be on hand with a big cheque to donate. “We’ve amped up the online (campaign). People can donate through the website,” added Wood. Oak Bay High vice principal Murray Allen is helping the students stay “pumped up” said Manness. “He really came through for us,” she said. The students have already held a three-day bake sale and car wash to raise money and this weekend will hold one of their biggest money makers, a bottle drive. “We have an account set up at the bottle depot, so people can go directly there and donate to the Oak Bay High Cops for Cancer account,” said Wood. Residents are also invited to leave bottles by the curb before 9 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20 for students to collect. Students will also be collecting bottles at the school, 2151 Cranmore Rd., between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. this Saturday. New this year is a community
fair which will be held at Willows Park on Sunday, Sept. 28 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event includes face painting, obstacle courses, entertainment, prizes and a barbecue. All money raised at the event goes toward Cops for Cancer. “When I first started at Oak Bay High, Cops for Cancer (fundraising) started as soon as school began,” said Chan. “For me, at the time, I thought, ‘it’s just a fundraiser, what’s everybody so excited about?’ Then they show you a video about Camp Goodtimes, the campaign leaders talk to you about it – it’s so amazing, everyone is so invested in this cause, it really helps bring everyone together.” Last year, the school donated in excess of $56,000 to the Tour de Rock, this year, the students say, they are aiming just as high. “This year, it’s about showing what OB Nation can still do,” said Manness. “There’s no reason they should have to tell kids they don’t get to go to camp this year.” Donate to the Oak Bay High Cops for Cancer campaign online at oakbay.sd61.bc.ca, click on the link at the top of the page. editor@oakbaynews.com

Our VIEW
Elections should be inclusive The race is on. Candidates are beginning to come forward for our consideration in the municipal election Nov. 15. On that date, Oak Bay residents – along with residents around the province – will be entrusted to elect a mayor, city councillors and school trustees who will represent us for the next four years. Some people have indicated their intentions to seek office and many have yet to go Diversity public. creates a Candidates can’t broader officially register until the end of the month, Sept. perspective 30 at 9 a.m. and they in our political have another 10 days after that (Oct. 10) before system the deadline to hand in nomination packages. We hope there will be strong candidates, but we hope also that there will be a variety of candidates. At the moment, four out of six city council members are women and there are seven out of nine on the Greater Victoria school district. Beyond gender, there can be a place at the council table for candidates of any age, ethnic background, sexual orientation, social standing or political leaning. Rather than categorize and divide us, these diversities can create a broader perspective. Compromise and co-operation are a part of democracy. Of course we realize that counting councillors by gender – or any classification – is an oversimplification. Candidates will be judged on their merit, character, priorities and promises, their strength and smarts, their motivation and intentions. We hope that this fall, voters will have the chance to elect just the sort of representatives we’re looking for, both men and women.

It’s the kind of minor Monday morning event at Winchester Gallery that sums up the expectations for 20/20: A Celebratory Exhibition that opens tomorrow. The show runs the gamut from Oak Bay’s most widely known, to our most easily accessed artists. “You’re surrounded by museum-quality masterworks by two of Canada’s most prominent artists,” said spokesperson Elizabeth Levinson, seated before the trio of Carr paintings, gesturing to David Blackwood’s Ephram Kelloway’s Door. “One of Canada’s most important painters, (Carr) used to come from James Bay every summer … she would summer in Oak Bay in a cottage on Foul Bay,” said Levinson. She expects Carr will garner “significant increase to her international reputation” with 100 works on display in London (Nov. 1 to March 22 at Dulwich Picture Gallery) next month, followed by an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. As we sit enjoying the two Canadian classics, Rasmussen, an active and highly visible Oak Bay artist comes through the front door. She is artist-in-residence at Oak Bay Beach Hotel this month. She paints en plein air in the seaside gardens there on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
n A 96-page catalogue published to accompany the exhibition is available through Winchester Galleries and Winchester Modern. Visit winchestergalleriesltd.com for more details.

Elizabeth Levinson of Winchester Modern, left, owner Gunter Heinrich and Linda M. Hensellek of Winchester Galleries in front of a trio of early Emily Carr works on display in Oak Bay. Many of the Oak Bay artists whose works will be part of the show – Elsa Mayhew, Manish Om Prakash, Adam Noonan, Shushan Egoyan and Rasmussen – have been part of the Winchester stable for those 20 years. “The relationships run deep with artists but also with artists estates,” said Levinson. Specializing in Canadian, American and international
fine art, Winchester Galleries and Winchester Modern have established a reputation for representing many of Canada’s world-class established and emerging artists. Gunter Heinrich and Anthony Sam, of Winchester Galleries and Winchester Modern first opened a small venue at the Oak Bay junction 20 years ago and now includes the gallery on Oak Bay
Avenue and one in downtown Victoria. “We are honoured to be marking the occasion of our 20th anniversary with a show of masterworks,” said Heinrich. 20/20: A Celebratory Exhibition includes 110 masterworks curated by Heinrich and his staff. Of note are AC-96-004 by William Perehudoff; Andy Warhol’s 1967 Portraits of the
Artists; Écran chromatique by Claude Tousignant; La Malbaie, Quebec by A.Y. Jackson; Emily Carr’s 1936 Tangle; and the large 1964 mixed media, Sans titre by Jean Paul Riopelle. Other featured artists in the exhibition are Jack Shadbolt, Robert Motherwell, Helen Frankenthaler, David Milne, Joseph Plaskett and Blackwood. It also includes a handful of emerging artists they’re being watchful of, such as Oak Bay’s Tristram Lansdowne, and Abe Murley (one of his works also hangs opposite the trio of Carr’s). A special preview of the exhibition will be held on Saturday, Sept. 20 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. “That’s an opportunity for clients to come through and see the work … often collectors like the opportunity to see the work without the party atmosphere,” Levinson said. The official opening and celebration are from 6 to 9 p.m. at both galleries: Winchester Galleries, 2260 Oak Bay Ave. and Winchester Modern, 758 Humboldt St. 20/20: A Celebratory Exhibition runs now through Oct. 25. cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

Cigarette butts are the constant winner in terms of big numbers during the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup. That’s true for anywhere, even the shores of McNeill Bay says Joe Blake, of the Community Association of Oak Bay. “It’s a pretty clean beach. People in Oak Bay are pretty good,” he says. The association hosts the cleanup each year, along with volunteers from the community, which

The Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup starts around 9 a.m. on Sept. 20 at McNeill Bay. Other areas are still seeking volunteers.

Because the new transmission reduces weight and friction, the fuel economy has improved by 16 per cent, which is an amazing accomplishment in such a small car. Rated at 7.0L/100km in the city and 5.7L on the highway, using the much tougher 2015 fuel standards, this represents fuel number buyers will actually be able to achieve. In addition, the suspension has been improved for more responsiveness but I found the ride a bit choppy over bumpy roads.

There is also the $19,195 EX trim with alloy wheels, paddle shifter and moon roof, but the big news is the inclusion of the $21,295 EX-L Navi trim. This is the EX trim with leather and navigation, making the fit downright opulent. This isn’t the least expensive car in this class but on the whole it offers so much more than just a price point.

Every one-hundredth of a second can mean the difference between a win and loss. Shortly before leaving, we stand by a windowless wall.

The race simulator is out of bounds but we learn new part profiles are fed in and tested virtually by the drivers on any of the F1 circuits programmed into the machine. It was likely overworked this year as the old V8 engines were replaced with turbo-powered 1.6-litre V6 hybrid powerplants. There are no underground tunnels between the four buildings so when a secret race-winning part is produced what happens? – Silvia laughs: “Well, then we put it on a tea trolley, cover it with a towel and wheel it across the road.” By the time the chuckling had died down, we were all peering through the windows of a huge gym. “The race team has to keep fit,” said

Milton Keynes, England – The security here seemingly rivals that of the most top-secret government institutions. “Without the proper finger you can’t get in,” says Silvia Halfar, grinning while prodding the fingerprint scanner. The door clicks open to the Infiniti-Red Bull Racing factory, where we would observe the hi-tech production techniques behind the success of four-time world F1 champion driver Sebastian Vettel and the four Constructors’ Championship titles earned by the team. The design genius is indisputably Adrian Newey. With ten Constructors’ Championships under his belt, won with three different teams – Williams F1, McLaren and now Infiniti-Red Bull – he has no rival. “Adrian draws up to 100 designs (car parts and components) a week and I mean draws, literally,” informs Silvia. His work is scanned and 3D printers generate models for testing. It’s not a one-man show: more than 600 people design, test, build and assemble the hundreds of thousands of parts required for the race cars driven by Vettel and Daniel Ricciardo. Every season, the 110-strong design team produces a new car that conforms to the strict F1 regulations. A super computer tests every part virtually, before a new model hits the former Concorde jet wind tunnel in nearby Bedford. Its processing power is a closely guarded

Milton Keynes, England: As we climbed into a gleaming Infiniti Q50 sports sedan, one killjoy warned the road to the Belgian Grand Prix would be like a dance – quick, quick, slow. The tour of the Infiniti-Red Bull Racing factory had us pumped and ready to roar Sebastian Vettel-like, along the UK’s motorway network to Folkestone, Kent. There we would take Le Shuttle train beneath the waves of the English Channel to France and on to Spa, Belgium. It would be a
600-kilometre drive (374 miles) and take less than six hours. The doomsayer was right, try ten hours! The aforementioned four-time F1 champ influenced the production of this car so it was a neat idea to take the sharp-looking Q50 on an extended spin to a race weekend. However, plain sailing it was not as we encountered motorway chaos to the EuroTunnel. It was equal parts low-gear slow crawl, near-posted speed limit bursts – enabling a few paddle-flipping-gear changes – and parking pauses

’’
later, we were enjoying the French countryside, travelling for extended periods at the construction zone speed of 30 klicks. Darkness enveloped the road ahead but our way through Belgium was lit by the most spectacular electric storm. Ah yes, the windshield wipers performed efficiently in a downpour of Biblical proportions. We finally reached Spa, birthplace of Agatha Christie’s fictional detective Hercule Poirot, and famous for its therapeutic cold springs. By the time we arrived, we’d had enough of the cold springs from above. The inclement weather didn’t dampen our spirits as we rubbed shoulders for the next two days with the fast and the fashionable in the Formula One Paddock Club at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. Champers was the breakfast of champions at the 2014 Belgian Grand Prix, if you had the admission price of $3,500 burning a hole in your jeans.

The navigation system ‘lady’ suggested we take the M25 the opposite way around London. Whoops. Should have ignored her. Nevertheless, this was all a blessing because the car was forced to perform in adverse conditions and its mettle/metal was truly tested. Extended time at the wheel of a 328-horsepower 3.7-litre V6 version (starts at $37,500) and a Hybrid ($10,000 more) with a 3.5-litre engine left me scratching my head about which would be my choice. Both provide a quiet, comfortable drive, not averse to a sprint when necessary, all aided by a seven-speed auto transmission that is as a smooth as a baby’s youknow-what. All-wheel-drive would be an option I would choose on either model. Interestingly, the constantly changing speed limits flashing above helped show off the predictive forward collision technology. If you trust the car ahead, the radar-controlled gizmo will govern your speed and braking automatically. In addition, lane control keeps you on the straight and narrow should you drift into that passing car you were alerted to by another warning system. Thanks to the $320 flexi pass, we rolled with ease onto the train and smirked at the lineup with the $120 tickets. About 40 minutes

exchange. “People in our office had a few books kicking around that they would lend to clients and we thought we’d ask clients to bring in their old books, pick up a new one and keep it rolling.” Their library is limited at this time, so if you have any unwanted travel books you would like to donate, drop by their office and help Athlone Travel fill its bookcase. editor@oakbaynews.com

Preventing gang activity in BC ▾ MYTH: The public is powerless against gangs. Reality: Be engaged and part of the solution. If you see something suspicious, whether it’s in a restaurant, mall parking lot, or in an isolated place, please phone 9-1-1 immediately so the police can investigate. Only with a community that cares and stands up to gangs and gang violence will we make a difference so our communities are safer.

Christine van Reeuwyk News staff
Dorothy Gale reminds us, “There’s no place like home” and likely the latest spate of Oak Bay resident actors would love to play such a classic Disney role as they dish out their own hometown tales at an open house billed as “Spend a Day at CCPA.” The Canadian College of Performing Arts, not quite a block from Oak Bay village is home to the three-year program that draws young performers from across the nation and their open house on Sept. 20 is designed to inspire, inform, and launch the 17th season. The day will feature a society meeting and demonstrations. “You can take a tour of learning. If you want you can even participate,” said Darold Roles, artistic and education director. Classes of stage combat to oneon-one singing instruction will be on display while popcorn and chocolate fondue keep things classy. “We’re showcasing our students and where their homes are,” added Roles, of a display offered by students. That evening, the yearthree students that make up Company C will host a familyfriendly cabaret fundraiser at the campus, 1701 Elgin Rd. “They learn how to run their own company in third year,” Roles explained. It’s the start of a year where third year students host their own shows, learning all about business, props and more as they get set to cap their student career. Company C also hosts Spring
Awakening in association with The Belfry Theatre at the Belfry from Oct. 21 to Nov. 2. The Tony Award–Winning Broadway rock musical tells the story of teenagers discovering the inner and outer turmoil of life and sexuality.
“We would like to stay in Oak Bay. It’s not our only option, but we have strong ties here.” – Steven Seltzer
Second year students promise to create and direct a provocative and engaging showcase for the TD Festival of New Works Dec. 10 to 13 at CCPA. “Students present their own original works,” Roles said. “It’s all fresh, new work. They are the future leaders of the Canadian cultural mosaic, so it’s an inspiring show.” Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility runs from Dec. 3 to 7 at a location yet to be found. Six Characters in Search of an Author is slated for Jan. 29 to Feb. 1, 2015 at the CCPA performance hall, 1701 Elgin Rd. Casino Royale 006 Never Say Never Again is Feb. 5. The fundraiser once voted Favourite Artsy Fundraiser by Monday Magazine’s M Awards is again held at at the glamorous Oak Bay Beach Hotel, 1175 Beach Dr. “It’s a sparkly evening where people get to dress up and there’s sassy entertainment by our students,” Roles said. Feb. 19 to 21, the CCPA performance hall will transform to an airport waiting lounge for Cities & Girls, a world premier of the dramatic music theatre event adapted
for the stage from the works of internationally renowned Canadian spoken word writer/performer Myra Davies. Broadway Lights, a performance with the Victoria Symphony runs March 20 to 22 at the Royal Theatre. Tickets and information are available at victoriasymphony.ca. The season wraps with Smokey Joe’s Café from April 16 to 25. CCPA presents the Grammy Award-winning Broadway review, directed and choreographed by Roles, at the performance hall on Elgin Road. Roles expects the longer runs at the Elgin Road hall will inspire residents to want the growing arts college to stay in the community. “We give a lot to the community,” he said, citing carolling at Christmas and visits to seniors homes. “A lot of people don’t realize the footprint we have,” said Steven Seltzer, communications and marketing manager. “We would like to stay in Oak Bay. It’s not our only option, but we have strong ties here.” The private college is owned by the non-profit Canadian Heritage Arts Society that will hold its annual general meeting Sept. 20 and discussion will include options for growth as the school has overfilled the church space for a couple of years now. “We need support, vocal support and funding,” said Roles, in hopes of hearing ideas from the art-loving public. Visit ccpacanada.com for details on upcoming performances or about the ongoing plan for CCPA to stay in Oak Bay. cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

eye infections. All of the care is free, and is meant for homeless or lowincome people and their pets. Vermeulen came up with the idea after seeing other nonprofit groups running a similar clinic on sporadic occasions. “There’s a need to do it once a month, regular consistent veterinary care,” she said. “These pets interact with a lot of household pets, so it keeps the disease population low.” The veterinarians see 60 to 65 pets in the two-hour time period, although normally about 80 people come, so vets are unable to help everyone. “We’re always looking for more veterinarians,” said Vermeulen. “That’s probably our biggest challenge.” New to this month’s Vets for Pets, held last week, was the presence

Q: WHAT cAn I do To creATe curb AppeAl for A fAll sAle? There are a number of ways to enhance the look of your home for sale as summer moves into fall. Extra moisture in the air helps green up your lawns. Keep the grass neatly mowed and clear of leaves. There are also plenty of fall flowers available to plant to keep your gardens colourful. Consider painting your front door a vivid colour and hanging some fall foliage on it as an accent. Speaking of paint, your home’s exterior would likely benefit from a power wash or fresh coat of paint in certain areas. Also, keep your windows clean. Clearing out the gutters of leaves and other debris shows potential buyers you care enough to maintain the home. And while mid-fall is often the time to break out seasonal decorations for things like Halloween, avoid the ghouls and scarecrows and keep the decorating to a modest level, so as not to detract from the home itself. Do you have a house-hunting story you’d like to share with us? Email: editor@ oakbaynews.com To advertise in HomeFinder, contact the Oak Bay News at Email: dianne@ oakbaynews.com

seller’s TIP | First-time home sellers should hire a Realtor who is familiar with your neighbourhood
Real estate market has summer sizzle Busy seasons shift so far in 2014 Laura Lavin News staff
Some Oak Bay real estate agents were a little concerned when the typical post-winter housing market upswing took a while to materialize. Patience has paid off for buyers, sellers and realtors alike, however, as the market showed better than expected results for a typically slower period of the year, summer holiday time. “It was an interesting spring,” said realtor Cassie Kangas of DFH Realty. “Winter was kind of busy right out of the gate, then spring took a long time to take off – then suddenly at the beginning of summer there were a whole lot of listings.” Figures released by the Victoria Real Estate Board last week showed significant improvement over the previous year. Last month 609 properties were sold, a 12-per-cent increase over the 540 sold in August 2013. It’s not just a summer blip: year-to-date sales for the region are running at a 10.5-per-cent better clip than by this time in 2013. “We are seeing a trend and I hope the momentum carries us through to the end of the year,” said
Christine van Reeuwyk/News staff
This Cadboro Bay Road 1,600 square foot rancher is a good example of the type of home many buyers are looking for when they are ready to downsize. Kangas. September, usually after school begins in earnest, is when things typically kick into gear again after the late-summer lull. While it’s uncertain whether the teacher’s strike has affected the decisions of some people to buy or sell their home all indications are that the market will continue to be brisk. “There are a couple of different factors. If the school strike gets resolved that might change things. I have a listing right now in Rockland and a few families have come through but they’re reluctant to make
a decision right now,” said Kangas. The word balanced continues to come up in descriptions of the market, a scenario in which neither buyers nor sellers have a distinct advantage. The absence of pricing pressures caused by a lack of supply – which caused bidding wars in past – coupled with still-low mortgage rates, has been key to maintaining that trend. “Interest rates are still really good. All the signs are that this will go on in a good, stable way,” said Kangas.
of ranchers, we need good family homes, and surprisingly there’s not a lot of condos listing in certain areas of Oak Bay.” With that said, she added, now is a good time to list your house. “If somebody is sitting on the fence, now’s the time to sell,” she said. “A lot of people think spring is the best time to sell your house. Now we have fewer homes, but we have just as many buyers as we did in the spring. The fall market here – with our milder weather – goes through right to December.” - with files from Don Descoteau
While specific figures for Oak Bay are not available, the Home Price Index benchmark price for a typical single family home in Greater Victoria was $491,500, $4,600 more than last year. Despite a temporary glut of supply in the local condominium market as development projects have come on stream, the benchmark prices for condos and townhouses have both risen by about 2.5 per cent in the past year. Kangas said the inventory for some types of housing in Oak Bay is currently low. “There are not a lot
