It’s A Grind Precision Concrete Cutting crews were in Hope on Oct. 21 to remove the 0.5-1.5 inch lip on about 25 sidewalk/wheelchair letdowns. Money raised from banner sales during Rick Hansen’s 2012 visit funded the project. Sidewalk trip hazards are also being addressed in town, which is being financed through the district’s annual maintenance budget.

Municipal campaign gets under way There will be some new faces around the council chamber in the District of Hope this year.

But who those people will be won’t be known until after Nov. 15.

As nominations for the upcoming civic election closed on Friday, Oct. 10, there were 17 people letting their name stand: four for mayor, 13 for council.

Change will certainly come in the mayor’s chair following the decision by Susan Johnston not to seek re-election (you can read her comments on page 5).

Hoping to replace her are four people: Lloyd Forman, Glen Ogren, Wilfried Vicktor and Cindy Young.

The race for council is a bit more crowded. But with only three incumbents seeking re-election, there is certain to be change there as well.

Gerry Dyble, Donna Kropp and Scott Medlock are all hoping for another term.

At Tuesday’s SD 78 school board meeting, held at Agassiz elementary secondary school, Trustee Rose Tustian brought forward a discussion regarding reducing the number of trustees in Fraser Cascade in the future from seven to five, and changing from the current ward system (where each trustee has a specific geographic area to represent) to an at-large system.

The idea didn’t sit well with the rest of the board.

“We are not overpaid,” said Trustee Al Fraser. “If it was going to save a million dollars, yes. We are the cheapest part of

the school system, sitting here around the table.”

Trustees in the Fraser Cascade are given a remuneration of $11,041.96 per year, with the chair receiving $13,250.31. The school district has just over 1,800 students attending nine schools and three Strong Start Centres.

Tom Hendrickson said that with fewer trustees and no dedicated area trustee for the Canyon area, those students, parents and teachers would go without representation.

Tustian did not put forward a motion on the matter, but she did for a motion to have the standing

committee meetings held in both Agassiz/Harrison and Hope, for a one year period. She believes that moving the committees to communities other than Hope will encourage more parent participation. Standing committees used to travel to meet at different schools in the district, however, it was too cumbersome to move large binders from place to place.

Tustian suggested that since the district now uses technology instead of papers and binders, travel wouldn’t be so hard.

Her motion did not receive a seconder, so it was not voted on.

Two all-candidates forums planned Continued from front stone and Rose Tustian. The rest of the field includes Fiona Delcourt , Cindy Ferguson, Leah Ochoa and Marilyn Warren In the Canyon electoral area Tom

Louis De Jaeger was acclaimed Monday night in Chilliwack as the federal Liberal candidate for the new Chilliwack-Hope riding.

“What I see before me is hope,” De Jaeger told the crowd, as he stood at the podium to thank supporters and friends at the candidate nomination meeting at his restaurant, Bravo Restaurant and Lounge, on Yale Road.

De Jaeger is a longtime business owner in Downtown Chilliwack, with 35 years in the hospitality industry.

“My friends of political change, together we know something is happening,” he said.

“What we see in Justin Trudeau is what I see before me: hope.”

He accepted the nomination to run as a candidate on the Liberal Party roster, but stressed his motivation was not for self-aggrandizing reasons or self interest.

“I accept this nomination on behalf of my community because we want better representation, better involvement, and a better outcome in decisions which directly impact our environment and the land we leave our children,” De Jaeger said.

De Jaeger’s platform includes restoring Canada to be an “inclusive” society that cares about seniors, youth, veterans, as well one that cares about the thousands of missing and murdered aboriginal women.

“Canadians want a government that restores Canada to being the socially progressive leader the world looks up to,” he said. “Canadi-

ans want a government that is transparent and accountable working for the betterment of our society not for just corporate interests, but fostering entrepreneurship, and helps small businesses succeed.”

He is active in the Sto:lo community, and served last summer as corporate liaison for the Spirit of the People Pow Wow. De Jaeger’s speech gave a nod to the wisdom of elders.

“We create balance

and harmony by treating one another with kindness and respect, and we must make the effort to learn to live together in a good way,” he said. “We have not experienced this with the current government.”

He ended his speech quoting Pierre Elliott Trudeau, who said: “The essential ingredient of politics is timing.”

“Well my friends, I think it’s time,” he said.

These can be herbal-based, like garcinia or fad diets where you cut out certain foods and eat only others. The secret to weight-loss is to eat regular foods in smaller amounts (except your veggies), choose sensibly when eating out in restaurants and choose daily exercising which is fun for you. It’s no magic!

It’s well-known that diabetes is on the increase in North America.

Some ethnic groups seem to be more susceptible to getting diabetes than others. These

Reasons for this include more urban lifestyles, dietary changes and to some extent obesity is the cause.

B.C. hospitals ‘not ready’ for Ebola, nurses warn Jeff Nagel Black Press

with Neil England “Ideal Protein” representative

and Ronda Cushnie Weight Loss Coach

Fraser Canyon Hospital Conference Room

THURSDAY OCT. 16TH, 2014 7:30 PM ALL WELCOME co-sponsored by the Hope Branch Canadian Diabetes Association 10/14H_PS16

B.C.’s nurses are “legitimately scared” about Ebola but haven’t been adequately trained to safely treat patients and avoid risking themselves or spreading the deadly virus to the broader population, according to their union president.

B.C. Nurses Union president Gayle Duteil detailed her concerns Tuesday in a letter to regional health authorities after three suspected Ebola cases turned up in Lower Mainland hospitals but were ultimately ruled out.

Duteil said Fraser Health and other health regions are “not ready” to respond to the arrival

of an Ebola case.

A union survey found nurses in units designated to isolate and treat Ebola patients haven’t yet been sufficiently trained in using protective gear to avoid infection.

Duteil is calling for immediate action to plug gaps in Ebola response planning, along with detailed simulations for front line staff.

“This cannot wait until there is another suspected case in an ER within the province,” she said. “If the health system wants our members to put themselves at risk of exposure to a deadly disease we expect that every reasonable precaution be put in place on a priority

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall.

basis.”

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall acknowledged more must be done and said he will co-chair a committee to review protocols and coordinate efforts by the health authorities.

“Our first priority will

KNOW THE NEW RULES

be on establishing the processes to familiarize or refamiliarize health care workers with personal protective equipment so if they have to use it they can use it safely and confidently,” Kendall told reporters.

He said health authorities may disagree with the BCNU assessment that they are unprepared.

But Kendall said the handling of each of the three recent suspect cases – two of which were

hospitalized in Surrey and Vancouver before being ruled out – turned up some issues in need of improvement. He described those cases as low to medium risk.

North American anxiety about the disease outbreak that has killed thousands in West Africa soared after a patient arrived in Texas with the virus and later died.

A nurse there subsequently tested positive for the virus although it’s unclear how she was exposed.

“Given the concern over the breakdown of infection control we heard from Texas It is really appropriate for us to double up on that and make sure people who are going to be on the front lines are confident and competent and comfortable putting the equipment on and particularly in taking it off,” Kendall said.

Opinion

Mayor offers parting comments I want to address the Hope taxpayers, residents and friends and would like to share some thoughts with you as I make my exit as mayor of the District of Hope.

I have very much enjoyed being your mayor, although the journey has not been without its challenges.

We, on council have accomplished a lot for you over the last three years and I hear from many of you that myself and council have served you well. I want to thank you for providing me with the opportunity to serve by electing me as your mayor and I want you to know I have appreciated your support. I have loved my job and I shall miss it.

As a council and a community we have accomplished so much. For me, the highlights have included the building of the Flying J and bringing the Hope Landfill into compliance and closing. We have saved the tax payers of Hope approximately $8 million dollars over the next few years by opening a new Transfer Station; infrastructure in the district was repaired and future planning has been undertaken to keep us in good stead. We now have an inventory of our assets and are making progress in our plans for a Public Safety Building. We are also working with Barrack Gold on the plan for a ski resort that will change the face of Hope forever. These are only a few of many significant accomplishments that were started and some that are now complete. I feel very proud and honoured to have been a part of it.

Hope is very similar to other like size communities in B.C. in its challenges; yet, at the same time it is like no where else on earth. I love Hope and believe that we benefit here simply because of the good fortune of our location. We are blessed through little effort of our own as we are able to enjoy the unique beauty this place has to offer.

There is always a place for feedback in the work of a public servant and elected official. Both compliments and complaints serve to make improvements in the quality of life for the residents of our town. The majority of people have been supportive of the work that this council and I have accomplished. I would like to take this opportunity to share some words of caution for those who have not. As a council we have had to make some difficult and unpopular decisions in an effort to improve living conditions for the resi-

dents of Hope. We may not always share with you the painstaking process we have undertaken in making these decisions, however, they have never been taken lightly or been made with haste. I encourage you to gather all the facts from reliable sources and be wary of gossip and hearsay. Just because someone said something on Facebook doesn’t make it the truth.

I encourage those who have in the past chosen to remain silent to step forward into Susan Johnston the forefront and openly show their support. We need your support as much you need ours. I would like you to know that we have one of the best groups of staff anywhere. They continually work hard with limited resources to keep the operations of this town running smoothly. We are fortunate to have this group of dedicated, hardworking, and reliable people.

The culture here is unique and different and our expectations are very high. Unfortunately, our budget is very low. Every dollar spent has been done so with great care and attention to the ever evolving needs of this community. It was an unpopular decision, however, a necessary one to raise taxes in order to continue to meet those needs. We cannot grow a community on 0% tax increases. It is your right as tax payers to vote in the election. It is of the utmost importance to choose people that you trust to make the difficult decisions that will continue to strengthen our community.

It has been an honour and a privilege to have been able to serve the residents and taxpayers of Hope for 12 years; nine as a councillor and the last three as mayor. I am not seeking re election for a number of reasons. One of the biggest reasons being that as a result of George’s heart attack last September; we as a family have had to seriously evaluate how we will spend what healthy time that we have ahead. It has became clear that although we hate to admit it there are more years behind us then there are ahead of us; so, we will spend them enjoying some leisure time together.

OMG! It’s already October... but there’s still time to put on wine before Christmas!

I want you all to know what the roll of the mayor of a community entails. It is to chair the meetings of council and most importantly to declare a state of emergency when necessary. That, by law is the roll of the mayor. As mayor and council we are the governance in a community.

We make the laws and change the laws, we govern, and we lead. The staff enforce those laws and carry out the wishes of council in maintaining the order and operation of the community. If you don’t know the answers to a question or questions, please ask someone who does.

I encourage you to call District Hall and ask our well qualified staff.

In closing, I want to wish the next mayor and council the very best. It has been my experience that the politics in this town are not all around the council table. I encourage the new council to always ask yourselves if it is in the best interest of all residents and taxpayers, to take nothing personally and above all be honest and morally correct.

You will not always agree; therefore, do try to be kind and respectful to each other.

Hope is on the cusp. It is ready to burst forth. We are on the map and growing daily. Dare to dream and then get involved in moving us forward with the positive energy and enthusiasm that I know and feel and witness everyday. I’m hearing that things are happening in Hope! Yes, yes they are!

Here is an interesting quote that I find befitting, it is by Theodore Roosevelt“It’s not the critic who counts. It’s not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit goes to the man who’s actually in the arena whose face is marred with dust and sweat and blood who strives valiantly and who errs and fails and is sometimes victorious - but when he fails at least he does so daring greatly.” I wish to personally thank all of you! All of our amazing volunteers and district staff and council members for all of their hard work, it means a great deal to me and to Hope. Most importantly, to your future.

Endeavour to stay positive!

I trust you will Fair well as I bid you Farewell!

Susan Johnston, Mayor District of Hope

A6 Hope Standard Thursday, October 16, 2014

Published at Hope, Boston Bar, Yale and surrounding area by Black Press

Helping families get fit The federal Conservatives deserve credit for recognizing that childhood fitness is an issue and that sports activities are expensive. (See story, page 22) But let’s face it, the doubling of the tax credit for kids under 16 from $500 to $1,000 is just a drop in the bucket when it comes to getting kids active and fit.

Now, parents can get back up to 15 per cent of their children’s registration or membership fees at tax time but it’s really just a gesture and an acknowledgement that the original $500 tax credit was far too low, especially if you have more than one child in more than one sport.

What sweetens the pot slightly is that the maximum credit actually works as a refund of $150, meaning that families whose incomes are too low to benefit will get some help, although they have to spend a lot to benefit a little. Cynics will argue that the Tories are just buying votes — with voters’ own money — in advance of a federal election a year from now. But people’s memories aren’t that long and the refund or tax credit isn’t worth that much.

What would make a difference would be a national fitness strategy to encourage families to make health and fitness a priority.

What’s missing is a culture of active living because everybody is so strapped for time, people drive everywhere and sitting in front of a screen all day is seen as the most-productive way of getting things done.

Could a pan-national strategy address more issues over a long time-frame? Absolutely, and it’s not just kids who could benefit from incentives to employers and agencies to get everyone moving and being healthy..

Time for truth in B.C. treaty talks B.C. VIEWS Tom Fletcher VICTORIA – Three years ago, long-time chief and band administrator Sophie Pierre sought an extension of her term leading the B.C. Treaty Commission and gave a warning. The federal and provincial government should start taking this long and costly effort seriously or “shut ’er down.”

Last week Pierre wound up her sixth and final year as chief commissioner on a slightly more hopeful note. This year, the Tla’amin Nation in the Powell River area and the Yale First Nation in the Fraser Canyon had their treaties proclaimed by Ottawa.

They join the Maa-nulth First Nations on Vancouver Island and the Tsawwassen First Nation in

leaving behind the Indian Act and the courts to get on with self-government. Tsawwassen in particular has moved ahead aggressively. Its shopping centre development near the ferry terminal is one of the largest commercial projects in the province right now.

All of these treaties were negotiated despite multiple overlapping territorial claims around them, and similar progress has been made with the Tsimshian First Nations on the North Coast and elsewhere.

The need for aboriginal people to work out their overlapping claim issues between themselves was the focus of the commission’s 22nd annual report. In it, former chief commissioners Miles Richardson of the Haida Nation and Steven Point of the Sto:lo Nation added their influential voices, urging aboriginal communities to consider them shared territo-

ries, rather than clinging to ancient tribal rivalries.

Another hopeful sign is that after seven years of commissions and studies, the federal government has finally given its negotiators a mandate to negotiate fisheries. This is the main reason why the Tla’amin waited five long years for Ottawa’s blessing after their treaty had been hammered out.

This year’s landmark decision of the Supreme Court of Canada, recognizing Tsilhqot’in Nation title in the remote Nemiah Valley, has also got the attention of Victoria and Ottawa. Pierre noted the “flurry of activity” by Premier Christy Clark in seeking reconciliation, which will culminate this month with a formal apology for the hanging of Tsilhqot’in chiefs 150 years ago.

Pierre said this court ruling “should destroy any lingering thoughts that this issue is not of

Standard

the utmost importance, and provide the necessary investment, both financial and time commitment, to reach satisfactory conclusions.”

That’s the good news for B.C.’s thorniest historical problem, the lack of treaties across most of the province.

It’s also becoming clearer that the Tsilhqot’in ruling is unique.

It’s unlikely to be repeated by most other First Nations, even if they are willing and able to spend the years and millions to enrich lawyers in pursuit of it.

Here’s the bad news. As of this year, the B.C. Treaty Commission has paid out $627 million to First Nations to support treaty negotiations. Most of that is in the form of loans, which are to be repaid out of the cash settlements that Ottawa contributes to settle modern treaties.

Pierre acknowledges that some communities are close to com-

pleting treaties, but their debt has climbed to near what Ottawa is offering. This would leave them free but broke.

Others are just “spinning their wheels” with no real hope of achieving a treaty, Pierre said.

The commission is calling for an “exit strategy” for these communities, starting with loan forgiveness that would allow them to pursue economic activity.

There are First Nations, Westbank and Osoyoos prominent among them, which are thriving without treaties. Haida and Klahoose have developed successful forest products businesses as they move toward self-government.

Federal and provincial governments must recognize the successes, and the failures.

of the ongoing Integrity Management Program.

Mr. O’Keefe also incorrectly states that the minimum pipeline wall thickness specified in the CSA Z662 code is ½ inch (12.7mm) as numerous factors are considered in the design of a pipeline river crossing.

Mr. O’Keefe also mentions tax revenues associated with our proposed expansion. We are proud of the economic impact our proposed project will have.

The Trans Mountain Expansion Project is a $5.4 billion construction project. That is all private sector risk capital, not taxpayer dollars.

At the peak of construction, some 4,500 people will be working on the pipeline expansion. We estimate there will be more than 4,000 worker months of employment in the Hope area, and workers on the proposed project will spend more than $28 million in the local community on items such as accommoda-

A.G.M.

tions and meals. The expansion will also create approximately 3,000 direct, indirect and induced jobs per year in B.C. and Alberta for at least 20 years of operations.

The Project will generate $4.3B in tax revenues from construction and 20 years of operation, accruing to all levels of government.

Local governments and Reserves crossed by the Project will accrue aggregate property tax increases of more than $23 million annually in BC, more than doubling what we already contribute. In Hope, we estimate over 20 years, an expanded pipeline will pay more than $25M in property taxes alone.

More broadly speaking, the purpose of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project is to unlock access to better-paying world markets for Canadian oil. In recent years, Canada has left billions of dollars on the table selling our oil into a U.S. market where a

domestic production boom is well under way.

The Trans Mountain Project will enable our customers to capture an additional $45B in revenues over 20 years. This will yield at least $14.7 billion in additional taxes and royalties – a sizeable economic legacy that will benefit both Hope and all of Canada.

We understand and expect that people have questions and concerns about the pipeline. We are always happy to answer questions and hear your feedback about the current line or our

proposed expansion.

We hope that interested Hope and area residents will take the time to learn more and provide

their views at www. transmountain.com.

FLUSHING OF WATER MAINS NOTICE The Utilities Department will perform its annual program of hydrant maintenance and water main flushing from October 6th through October 24th, 2014.

As a result of this flushing, you may notice changes in water pressure and there may be some discoloration or sediment in the water. This is a temporary condition and is not a health hazard. To avoid inconvenience, check your water before doing laundry. You may wish to keep water in the refrigerator for drinking and cooking.

Any concerns should be directed to: Mr. Vince Coles, Utilities Foreman at 604-869-2333.

Safety is a primary consideration for the proposed Trans Mountain Expansion Project as well. The Project team is committed to an open and responsive approach to sharing information and ongoing engagement. Project plans include installation of automated block valves at locations based on results of spill modelling and formalized risk assessment, the ability to isolate the pipeline in the event of an emergency.

Mr. O’Keefe correctly notes that there is not currently a plan for additional valves to be placed in Hope, nor are there plans to increase the pipeline wall thickness or decommission the existing pipeline in Hope. However it should be noted that the current pipeline materials and their thickness (9.52 mm at the Coquihalla River crossing) are fully compliant with the Canadian Standards Association’s Oil and Gas Pipeline Systems Z662-11 standard. We can also confirm that the pipeline design and pipe wall thickness satisfy the NEB requirements for the licensed operating pressure. To this regard, much of the Coquihalla Canyon was hydrostatically pressure tested in 2013 at pressures greater than operating pressures as part

Dennis O’Keefe (“Safety of current pipeline questioned”) writes that he is concerned about potential safety risks on the existing Trans Mountain Pipeline.

We can reassure readers of the Hope Standard that safety is a top priority for Kinder Morgan and all of its employees.

As we’ve stated in previous communications with Mr. O’Keefe, we take a proactive approach to pipeline protection all along our existing route, including through the Hope area.

The Trans Mountain Pipeline system has been successfully operating for more than 60 years as a result of ongoing proactive maintenance and our wellestablished pipeline integrity and pipeline protection programs.

This includes safely shipping diluted bitumen since the 1980s.

For example there are seven block valves located on the existing pipeline between the Kingsvale and Hope stations. The majority of these block valve locations were selected during the original design of the pipeline and are located at pump stations and in strategic locations, with two of the valves installed in 2013 as part of system upgrades. The valves enable us to section off portions of the pipeline to allow maintenance work and to respond effectively in the event of an emergency.

We continually reassess valve locations and system protection as part of our Integrity Management Program as indicated by the two new valves added on each side of the Coquihalla Canyon in the

Letters Teamwork key to successful council Due to upcoming surgery, I will likely be unable to attend upcoming events to meet our candidates and get a sense for their views so I can make an informed choice. Nevertheless I would like to make some points that may be considered worthy of consideration for those putting their names forward.

Running for office is the highest expression of interest there is for a functioning democratic society and I thank all those putting themselves forward to take on the task. I also wish to thank Peter Robb, Tim Hudie, Ron Smith and Susan Johnston for their service in previous councils. Having served as a senior executive for several large private and public organizations, I retired to Hope and agreed to serve as town manager on a transitional basis with the council led by Mayor Laurie French after working to assist with the planning efforts in economic development. That council was responsible for the successful completion of the Kawkawa Lake Bridge, the renovation of the Sucker’s Creek Bridge (all under budget at completion), attracting the Flying J to build their facility, and the initiation of the park renovations between the bridge and the Rec Centre. Most important of all was the decision to close the landfill site and to add a transfer station which opened recently. The savings generated by this

project alone amount to $735,000 per year and ended the decades long pollution of the Fraser River. The outgoing council continued and / or finalized these initiatives among many others.

None of the above would have been able to be accomplished without a team effort of the elected officials and the staff they work with.

This requires an ongoing trust, good communications and an understanding of respective roles. When I came to the position of town manager in Hope, the pool of qualified candidates for senior staff had dried up because of unconstructive council/staff relationships.

As one would expect, the turnover of senior staff had become a serious problem in getting anything done as few wanted to work in Hope’s senior jobs.

I congratulate the last two councils under Mayor French and Mayor Johnston on working to repair this relationship which I believe has been a big factor in the impressive achievements of the last six years.

Councils need to understand that their role is to decide what needs to be done within the stringent Provincial municipal law environment, communicate those goals effectively to gain citizen support and generally oversee staff efforts in moving the plan forward. It is staff ’s role to execute the plan within the budget

allocated by council. When these roles are misunderstood or when the parties don’t develop trust relationships, everyone loses.

Because staff and elected officials are human, mistakes can and will be made from time to time and there will be those who are disappointed with any Council decision. I hope all the candidates thoughtfully do their homework on the nature of the job, study the limitations on their powers and don’t make silly promises they can’t keep. Day to day operation of a municipality is a staff responsibility. Elected members meet infrequently to approve or amend staff recommendations and to vote on key priorities, policy and budget.

A colleague of mine reminded me from time to time when he thought I was getting too fancy that “there is sometimes more virtue in doing the common, uncommonly well.”

Running a municipality is not that dissimilar and understanding and respect for the respective roles will be a great start to the next term.

I wish each candidate good luck and thanks, and hope that the successful ones bring a sense of team and goodwill to further extend the stability and good government of the last six years.

No booze for big box stores

By Tom Fletcher Black Press

VICTORIA – Large grocery stores are the only retailers eligible to add a separate liquor store under new B.C. government regulations set to take effect in the spring of 2015.

To qualify for a space to sell alcoholic beverages, stores must have at least 929 square metres (10,000 square feet) of floor space and groceries as 75 per cent of their sales, Justice Minister Suzanne Anton announced Friday.

The restrictions are designed to exclude general merchandise and “big box� stores

as well as convenience stores, according to a ministry statement. Eligible stores will be permitted to create a “store within a store� with separate cash registers and staff, or “co-brand� with liquor stores outside their existing facilities.

The government plans to maintain its cap on the number of liquor stores, with 670 private stores now in operation. Liquor stores are currently restricted to relocating no more than five km from their original location, but that restriction is being lifted so a licence can be sold or moved anywhere in the province.

That would allow existing government

or private liquor stores to relocate in partnership with grocery stores, while maintaining the regulation that no two liquor outlets can be closer together than one kilometre.

Licensing to sell B.C. wine directly from grocery store shelves, a second recommendation from a province-wide consultation on liquor policy reform conducted earlier this year, is still being studied. Anton said the system “strikes a balance of added convenience for consumers and support for B.C.’s business sector, while at the same time respecting health and public safety considerations.�

Province will review protocols, step up training for staff in wake of Ebola scare Continued from page 4 The risk from Ebola to the general public in B.C. is “vanishingly small, if not zero,� he added.

Kendall praised the past bravery of health care workers in dealing with outbreaks such as SARS and pointed to HIV as a precedent where fear of exposure at times threatened to hinder treatment.

Unlike airborne viruses, Ebola can only be caught through

direct contact with bodily fluids of a patient who has symptoms.

Fraser Health’s head of infection control previously predicted the region would successfully isolate and contain any Ebola patient arriving in the region at its designated hospital – Surrey Memorial.

Vancouver Coastal Health Authority hasn’t identified a primary hospital to take suspect cases, instead expecting

all sites to be ready.

Although suspect patients in B.C. to date have turned out not to have Ebola, public health officials expect health workers here will be confronted with the real thing.

More suspect cases are also likely since about 40 people a month arrive here from West Africa and some are likely to display flu-like symptoms – two factors that trigger isolation pending further assess-

ment.

The BCNU letter warns the union has advised members to only care for suspected Ebola patients if they’ve been provided proper equipment and training.

It also urges improved procedures on cleaning and handling garbage, protocols on handling the deceased and asks what contingency plans will be in place when ERs are already full.

B.C. wood moves up China’s value chain

By Tom Fletcher Black Press

When B.C.’s wood products trade mission visited Nanjing, China five years ago, government and industry representatives watched lumber being hauled by labourers with ropes onto the roofs of a vast expanse of concrete apartment buildings.

Trusses were built using hammers and handsaws, to replace thousands of roofs damaged by the deadly 2008 Sichuan earthquake. Builders were pleased with the new method, which replaced angle iron pulled up to the roofs and welded into trusses.

When B.C.’s annual delegation returned

to Nanjing this Thanksgiving weekend for its annual Asia sales trip, Forests Minister Steve Thomson said the roof reconstruction work continues. But now wood construction has become more sophisticated in Jiangsu Province, a centre of electronics and other industries whose gross domestic product is half as much as all of Canada. “They’re doing residential properties, they’re also doing recreational properties, the villas, planned communities,� Thomson said in a phone interview from Nanjing Oct. 11.

Thomson also met with executives of Sinar Mas, the Indonesian conglomerate that has invested heavily in B.C.’s wood pulp industry through its Richmond-

based subsidiary Paper Excellence.

The B.C. delegation toured the world’s largest paper mill, which uses all of the production from Mackenzie Pulp in northern B.C. and most of Howe Sound Pulp and Paper. Paper Excellence also owns the pulp mill in Skookumchuck in the Kootenays, and this spring it purchased the former Tembec pulp mill in Chetwynd that has been shut down since 2012.

The annual lumber trade mission is required by B.C. legislation. Thomson said the next stop in Beijing is for his first meetings with national-level Chinese officials, before the group heads to Tokyo and Seoul, South Korea.

Permits approved for Site C hydro dam

www.chilliwackchiefs.net

VICTORIA – Both the federal and provincial governments have issued environmental assessment certificates for BC Hydro’s Site C dam, the proposed third hydroelectric project on the Peace River in northeastern B.C. The approvals include dozens of legally binding conditions, including a $20 million farmland enhancement fund to offset river bottom land that would be flooded, and compensation for local aboriginal groups whose historic treaty rights to hunting, fishing and trapping would be affected.

Cost of the project, last estimated by BC Hydro at $7.9 billion, will factor into a final decision by the B.C. cabinet whether to go ahead with the dam. Energy Minister Bill Bennett has indicated he expects the final investment decision to be made by the end of 2014, and if it’s approved, work would begin immediately.

Among the 77 B.C. conditions is an aboriginal business participation strategy to share the estimated 10,000 person-years of construction work the dam proj-

Site C dam project design has been changed to eliminate a separate bridge across the Peace River, and confine construction camp to one side of the river.

Two temporary dams would have to be built to divert the river and allow construction of the main dam.

ect would generate.

Seven aboriginal communities affected by the proposal have been offered cash and Crown land to compensate for land lost by construction of the dam. All are signatories to Treaty 8, which ensures their rights to hunt, trap and fish as they did before the treaty was signed in 1899. Officials say five of the seven are currently in negotiations.

Situated near Fort St. John and downstream of the W.A.C. Bennett and Peace Canyon dams, Site C’s 1,050-metre-long earthfill

dam would create a reservoir 83 km long and two to three times the current width of the river.

It requires two power lines built in the same corridor as the existing line, and six water turbine generators that would produce enough electricity to power about 450,000 homes.

BC Hydro estimates that because Site C would use water held back in the existing Williston Lake reservoir, it would generate 35 per cent of the energy as the Bennett dam with only five per cent of the reservoir area.

Shine a light on domestic violence Purple Light campaign aims to raise awareness More than 100 people gathered at Hope Memorial Park Oct. 1 to highlight the need for greater understanding and awareness of issues surrounding domestic violence, and learn how to help those who may be in need.

The event was the official kick off of this year’s Purple Lights Nights: shine the light on domestic violence campaign.

“It was a great to see members of the community coming together to acknowledge a socially taboo topic, that’s been traditionally swept under the rug. It adds strength to the community by acknowledging the cause together,” said community member Larissa Dyble.

The Purple Lights Campaign, which originated in Covington, WA, began just before dusk, as community members gathered to show their support and take a stance against domestic violence. The kick-off opened with a community blessing by Pastor Jeff Kuhn, and was followed by a series of speakers including local domestic violence statistics read by RCMP Corporal Darryl Peppler; a poetry reading of I Will Rise, by Maya Angelou, and a drum circle and blessing by Gracie Kelly.

The tree will remain lit throughout the month of October, and community members are encouraged to continue wearing purple and shining purple lights on businesses or homes.

Domestic violence has many faces including: physical, emotional

When parents go to prison, their children often suffer.

That is one of the main conclusions of In the Best Interests of The Child – Strategies for Recognizing and Supporting Canada’s At-Risk Population of Children with Incarcerated Parents, a study conducted by faculty in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice and School of Social Work, in collaboration with the Centre for Safe Schools and Communities at the University of the Fraser Valley. The study examines policies and practices that address the needs of children with incarcerated parents, who were found to be an invisible and vulnerable group.

The majority of men and women in Canada’s jails and prisons have children, many of whom are dependants. When a parent is incarcerated the whole family is often negatively affected from the moment of the parent’s arrest, through their incarceration, and even following their release and reintegration back into the community, the study found.

During this cycle, children often face disruption, stigmatization, and shame through no fault of their own, placing them at risk for developing emotional, physiological, and behavioural problems, including the prospect of inter-generational criminality, the study notes. Despite these risks, Canadian policies do not recognize the vulnerability of these

children. Very little data and research is available to guide the development of targeted and culturally responsive programs and services to better support these children and build their resilience.

“When people are sentenced to custody, there is no protocol for considering whether they have dependent children and what effect the parent’s sentence will have on the child. Yet, it is important to consider

a child’s parent and are therefore unable to offer appropriate supports. As well, geographical distance, strict prison visitation policies, the high costs of prison visitation and communications, among other barriers, can make it difficult for incarcerated parents to maintain a meaningful relationship with their children who remain on the ‘outside’.

The Centre for Safe Schools and Communities, led by Annette

“Canada should follow other countries in shifting to a more child-friendly criminal justice system” Amanda McCormick the best interests of a child because maintaining family relationships can be an extremely important factor in reducing parents’ chances of reoffending, as well as preventing a child’s future anti-social behaviour,” observes UFV criminology professor Amanda McCormick, the lead author of the report.

In fact, children of incarcerated parents often show up in the child welfare system. When they do, the fact that one of their parents is incarcerated may not necessarily be disclosed because of the fear of social stigma associated with this form of parental separation. Educators — who typically play an important support role when children experience life challenges such as parental divorce or separation — are usually unaware of the ‘criminal’ status of

Vogt, held a one-day expert working group session to discuss the report findings with national and provincial practitioners, researchers, and policy-makers.

The meeting revealed that practitioners are well aware that the needs of these children and the challenges they face.

“Ideally, supportive programs and services should activate immediately upon the arrest and remand of a parent, and should continue into post-release,” McCormick says. “Canada should follow other countries in shifting to a more child-friendly criminal justice system, one which considers the effects of parental incarceration on a child and utilizes alternatives to incarceration whenever possible.”

The study concludes that more support is needed for these children who find them-

selves in such vulnerable situations.

However, improving responses to these situations will require more information about their specific needs, the development of specific programs and interventions, training for support providers, and improvements to inter-agency information exchange and collaboration. The authors also note that Canada may be falling short of its international legal obligations under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, in particular the obligation to ensure that the best interests of the child are considered in all decisions that affect a child. In this regard, the study recommends the creation of a national commissioner or advocate for children’s rights, with a mandate similar to those found in the UK and Australia, who can advocate on behalf of vulnerable groups of Canadian children.

In the meantime, further work is occurring. To better support the best interests and distinct needs of children with incarcerated parents, UFV faculty members Hayli Millar and Yvon Dandurand are developing a criminal justice decisionmaking series exploring international legal standards and promising state practices on how the ‘best interests of the child’ are considered in relation to adult criminal justice decision-making from the point of parental arrest through to release and reintegration.

FINANCING AVAILABLE:

The federal government is going to double the Child Fitness Tax Credit (CFTC) and make it refundable delivering on a promise made to parents said Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon MP, Mark Strahl.

“I’m happy that our Conservative government is moving forward on a commitment to further help families with the cost of enrolling their children in activities that promote physical fitness. I’m especially pleased that these enhancements will bring new benefits to low-income families,” said Strahl.

For the 2014 tax year the maximum amount that may be claimed under the credit will be doubled to $1,000 per child. The credit will become refundable for the 2015 tax year.

The original non-re- Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon MP, fundable CFTC could Mark Strahl only be used to reduce taxing owing. By making the CFTC refundable, eligible families whose income was too low for them to have a net tax liability in 2015 tax year, can receive up to $150 per child.

To be eligible, children must be under 16 years of age (or under 18 years of age if eligible for the disability amount) and be enrolled in strenuous activities such as hockey, soccer or gymnastics.

The CFTC was introduced in Budget 2006 by the Honourable Jim Flaherty, who was Minister of Finance at the time. The credit became effective in 2007, and was designed according to the recommendations of the Expert Panel for the Children’s Fitness Tax Credit. In 2011, the Government committed, upon return to budget balance, to doubling the maximum amount that can be claimed under the credit and to making the credit refundable.

Sports Mustangs show talent in tight games Local squad will be on the road for playoff game Barry Stewart

The Hope Standard

Hope soccer fans were treated to two great first-half efforts by the Hope Secondary Mustang boys’ senior team, last Thursday and this Tuesday. In fact, in both home games, the outcome was still up in the air until the final 10 or 15 minutes.

Against Abbotsford’s MEI last Thursday, Mustang keeper Nik Gauthier let an early shot get past him — then shut the door with outstanding saves, aided by speedy and timely defensive support from Kyle Feltren, Jeremiah Steberl, Jacob Chisholm and Dustin Wutzke.

The midfield also helped in core defence and feeding the offence.

“Our captain, Blake Deschenes, is a great leader,” said community coach Andrew Tarrant. “He and Marcus Aubin have been solid in central midfield, which has often been lacking in the teams I’ve coached before.”

Aubin injured his knee in the second half and his absence was notable in the final minutes and in Tuesday’s game.

With 10 minutes to go in the first half, Owen Tunnicliffe set up Quentin Jones who took a quick, low shot with his left foot from high in the box, putting it just inside the post. HSS held off the relentless MEI attacks to carry a 1-1 score into half time.

The quick-footed visitors were keen on sending their strikers in for breakaways, though more than 10 were called back for being offside. Gauthier kept up his aggressive challenges to clean up any chances that made it through. Offtarget shots and a few posts kept the score tied until MEI notched the go-ahead goal with 20 minutes to go. They went on to score four more in the closing nine minutes.

Aldergrove Secondary brought a talented squad to town on Tuesday, with lots of speed and firepower. They scored three minutes into the game, then Gauthier and crew clamped down and kept the ball out of the Hope net for the rest of the half.

At the other end, Quentin Jones and Austin Cadano used their speed to pressure the Aldergrove keeper, who hurried his clearing kick and bounced it off Jones to

Cadano, who had an easy tap-in.

Once again, it was 1-1 at half time.

Aldergrove made good on a penalty kick, five minutes into the second half and scored three more in the final 15 minutes — one of them on another PK, that Gauthier almost got his hands on.

The final play of the game may have given a glimpse of the talent that is developing in the grade 8s. Tunnicliffe used his speed to get around a defender and put a strong pass across the box to fellow grade 8 teammate Vincent Pellegrino, who couldn’t quite find the target.

A Mustangs’ win would have

seen Aldergrove come back for a playoff game next week but the visitors’ victory puts Hope on the bus for an away game.

Due to the protracted school labour dispute, Tarrant missed three weeks of practice with his team.

“The season is normally too short — and this season it’s even shorter,” he said. “I’d love to have a five-month season or more, rather than just one month, so that we have time to build on the early lessons.

“We could do with a few more grade 10,11 and 12s, especially some of the ones that have played with us before — but I am grateful for the grade 8s and 9s. They

bring a great spirit of enthusiasm to the team, which makes up for their lack of size.”

Hope Minor Soccer president Bruce Becker said he felt the school closures had an effect on registrations for his group, which were at historic lows this fall.

“We have a small but enthusiastic and dedicated group,” said Becker, principal of Silver Creek Elementary. “The numbers are the lowest they have been since I have been running the program, probably due to the hockey season and the teachers’ strike. The schools are a great way to get information out and to encourage participation.

The 91 players are distributed in four groups.

• Grades K/1: 21 players • 2/3/4: 31 • 5/6/7: 19 • 8-11: 21 “I believe 12 of the players play high school soccer as well,” added Becker.

“We started on September 13 and end on November 15. On the last day, we play our annual parents versus kids game. This year, the parents are hoping for their first-ever win!

“The spring season registration will be on Thursday, March 19 at Silver Creek between 6-8pm, with the first games on April 11th. The cost is $40, with special family rates.”
