INTERIM MILLS Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop manager Marg Petrick is asking people to not leave donations outside when the Lazelle Ave. shop is closed.
Can’t you read the sign? Donations left outside charity shop ruined, thrown out DONATING ITEMS to various local charity shops for resale is much needed and appreciated but one manager of one shop is letting the public know that items left outside during closed hours are ruined by inclement weather and are just thrown out. “It's discouraging to the volunteer staff to have to clean this up every day,” said Mills Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop interim manager Marg Petrick. “We have just thrown three gar-
bage bags full of wet clothes out that were strewn in the snow last night,” Petrick said recently of items dropped off overnight. The volunteer-operated thrift store on Lazelle Ave. raises money for Mills Memorial Hospital and Terraceview Lodge. Donated appliances, clothing, dishes and other items are processed and then sold. But Petrick said about a quarter of the donations aren't used because of
the condition they are in if dropped off when the thrift store isn't open and the weather is bad. She said homeless folks will pick through the items outside and use it as bedding to sleep behind the store. “We're open 10-4 Tuesday through Saturday. It might be challenging for some people but it still doesn't serve any purpose dropping it here because it ends up in our garbage.”

Housing surge continues
THE PAST year was another big one for the Terrace and area real estate market with the total value of all the houses sold through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) mirroring 2013, a year which saw home prices swell to levels unseen since the 1990s. According to the BC Northern Real Estate Board's annual report, a total of 351 Terrace and area properties of all kinds through MLS changed hands in 2014 worth $87.3 million, 177 of them being single detached homes with an average selling price of $302,000. The median price for the 177 single detached homes sold was $294,000, meaning that half sold for less than that amount and half sold for more than that. In 2013, there were 384 properties of all kinds worth $87.8 million sold and the average selling price of a single detached home was $251,477. In 2012, there were 190 units sold averaging $215,778. Local director of the BC Northern Real Estate Board John Evans says the surge in home purchases which drove prices up is a result of the low rental vacancy rates which made buying a preferable option for people living in Terrace. Large construction projects like BC Hydro's now-finished Northwest Transmission Line and the Rio Tinto Alcan Kitimat Modernization Project in Kitimat, which saw many workers come to the area, drove up rental prices which in turn spurred housing purchases, he said. “If you're taking a look at rent for $1,500 a month and you have a mortgage rate at three per cent, you are better off to buy,” said Evans, explaining the buy-not-rent logic of the past couple years. Another factor in driving up demand is people moving to the area because of all the talk of a resource awaking, specifically the prospect of a regional liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry, in the area, Evans added. It meant people who might not normally consider settling down here now desire to do so, he said. While the pre-work for LNG as well as the speculation of an LNG boom was part of the buying surge, Evans said current housing prices have dampened the speculation market. Evans notes that the real estate board numbers of the past several years show that those who invested back in 2011 and 2012 in speculation on LNG saw a good return on their investments. “They are risk takers, and their bet paid off because if you take a look at what the average price [of a single family home] was Jan. 1, 2011 compared to today, it's increased by over $100,000,” he said. This year will see more of a mixture of single family homes and condos and townhouses, projects which got their start last year, coming on the market.

Cell service improving Feature prices are in effect until February 7, 2014 at participating STIHL Dealers.
THE PROVINCIAL government says it has spent more than $6.7 million expanding cell service along northern and central highways and boosting internet service. It’s part of a provincial contract undertaken by Telus to better connect rural and northern communities and facilities within those communities. Expanded cell service along high-
ways means safer travel for drivers and others on northern and rural roads, faster reporting of road accidents and better response times by emergency workers. Along Hwy16, $2.3 million was spent to build three new wireless sites bringing service to about 40 kilometers of Highway 16 between Terrace and Burns Lake.

Closed school has new purpose for trades training IT MAY look closed from the outside but Thornhill Junior Secondary School, which was shuttered several years ago as a result of a declining student population, is now the home to a private training college. With a campus first in Kitimat and one now in Thornhill just outside Terrace, the UA Piping Industry College of B.C. runs specific classes and courses aimed at preparing participants for the early stages of careers in plumbing, sprinkler-fitting, steamfitting and welding. Terrace-based coordinators Carolyn Barkman and Randy Chalifoux say the common area, two classrooms, meeting room and shop space being rented at the former junior secondary school are wellsuited to the college’s needs. “We rented temporarily at first and a yearand-a-half later, we’re still here,” explains Chalifoux. “We can talk about what to do in the class in the morning and actually do it hands on in the afternoon in the shop.” The college was started 25 years ago by piping industry unions as a way of training people for careers in those skilled trades. “There’s an expectation of a shortage of skilled employees and in the north and in B.C.,” says Chalifoux. “Here, there’s the opportunity to get people trained in the first level of apprenticeship.” It also has a satel-
lite campus in Kitimat for similar training and an added advantage is having the space for the college’s union sponsors to hold training programs when and as needed for their members employed on the several industrial projects underway in that community. “Let’s say a union needs to hold a safety course. They can do it there,” says Chalifoux. In Thornhill the college offers upgrading so, for instance, participants first improve their math skills, an essential requirement for trades employment. It also offers a wideranging introduction to trades construction program and a foundation program tied to a specific trade. Participants also receive life skills coaching and tips on preparation for employment. Employment preparation takes in sessions on conflict resolution, group learning and safety. “You may not like the guy on the other end of the pipe, but you need to learn how to work with him,” notes Chalifoux. Instructors are brought in as and when needed depending upon the specific type of training program underway. The great majority of program participants are First Nations from surrounding communities which, in the current housing shortage climate in Terrace and Thornhill presents a challenge, says Chali-
foux. The New Aiyansh village government in the Nass Valley found a solution to the housing problem by renting a house in which 12 students from the village live, he adds. The college does provide basic financial assistance – bus passes, for example, work boots and safety gear. But participants also benefit from other agencies who provide living allowances and other assistance for the duration of their time with the college. Aside from its presence in Thornhill and in Kitimat, the UA Piping Industry College has had a branch campus in Fort St. John, complete with a fully equipped welding facility for the past 10 years. Its main campus is on Annacis Island in Delta in the Lower Mainland, a 70,000 square foot facility of 10 classrooms. A crucial partner of the UA Piping Industry College of B.C. is the Industry Training Authority (ITA), the provincial agency which not only sets and maintains standards, qualifications and certifications for trades training but also provides those undergoing training with financial assistance. “They’ve been very progressive at looking at the requirements for the piping industry and are doing an excellent job,” says ITA chief executive officer Gary Herman. “What they do is look at where the opportunities are for the trades they teach.”
Herman said the UA Piping Industry College of B.C. is one of 14 public institutions and 29 private training colleges connected to the training authority. By being focused on specific trades, the training college can efficiently move in equipment and instructors when a demand exists, said Herman. And having the college set up facilities in more remote areas increases the opportunities for local residents to begin training for new careers, he said.

Mental help
Working together gives police and healthcare an advantage to assisting people By Margaret Speirs POLICE ARE dealing with more and more people with mental health issues – but at least they have a strong ally when it comes to helping these individuals. Terrace RCMP and Northern Health work together by way of monthly meetings, sharing information and keeping communication open between them.
The numbers On average, Terrace RCMP officers spend two to three hours at hospital when they bring someone there for a mental health issue. Police don’t arrest a person with mental health issues, instead they apprehend the individual, according to the Mental Health Act. The person is then detained under the Mental Health Act, which is part of B.C. law. When a patient admitted for mental issues goes missing from hospital, a director’s warrant is issued for that person’s apprehension. The director is the person in charge of the facility in which the person has been admitted. And the calls police receive and the number of people they assist with mental health issues is increasing. In 2012, police had 358 calls regarding mental health issues compared to 394 in 2013. Of those, 68 were taken to the hospital in 2012 and 57 were returned because of a director’s warrant. And in 2013, that was 95 to hospital and 86 were director’s warrants. “We’re definitely trending in the wrong direction,” said Terrace RCMP media relations and community policing Const. Angela Rabut, adding that the increase is a common
theme in many places and not just here. The increase can’t be attributed to an increase in population, said Terrace RCMP operations NCO Staff Sgt. Sydney Lecky. It can be a few people or even one person causing trouble in many ways, he explained. For example, one person came to town and had a job, was evicted from several places and several calls were placed to 911 because of her, he said.
Working together Mills Memorial Hospital is one of the few hospitals that can take clients from other places, so much of the increase in people that police come into contact with for mental issues is possibly due to that, said Lecky. The psychiatry unit at the hospital is secured but there is a patio where patients can go out to get fresh air and people do get out. Others may not return when let out on a pass and then the police are called to find an AWOL individual. When police bring a person to the hospital, they will stay with that person until a physician can check that person over, determine if a mental illness is the problem and admit the person. For each person that can mean police spend two to three hours waiting with the person due to hospital staff being busy. “The working relationship is pretty awesome,” said Lecky about working with hospital staff. “It’s the best I’ve seen it.” The healthcare community team leaders meet with RCMP monthly to discuss concerns and that includes leaders from the hospital, Seven Sisters and community mental health and addictions. Quarterly meetings take place between Terrace RCMP inspector Dana Hart and
Chris Sims, health services administrator for Northern Health. It all goes together with one of the policing priorities for the RCMP E Division, which includes the whole province: to find ways to work collaboratively with other agencies. “We have a strong working relationship with the RCMP and they do come and provide assistance,” said Davey MacLennan, Mills Memorial Hospital area manager for Mental Health and Addictions. People go AWOL from the hospital sometimes when they’re taken to emergency and they have been assessed and they’ve left. “They may have to be taken back or if the person manages to leave before being seen by the physician,” he said. MacLennan added, “We provide a wide range of services for mental health and addictions and within the area, not just in emergency.” In emergency is the Community Response Personnel, who assess people in the emergency room and do have the opportunity to contact inpatient staff for advice as well and at the time will support them for assessments, he said. The personnel can provide a brief intake assessment and do a crisis assessment of patients’ behaviour. They can connect to mental health or addiction issues short-term or consult and give therapeutic interventions and make recommendations to being followed up in the community, he said. The team can do this work in police cells and in a variety of places as needed. The community service team has been around for 10 years and MacLellan was one of its first crew members here. In the time he’s been here, he believes that
the number of those accessing mental health services at the hospital hasn’t increased but has been steady, The demographics and dynamics of the population have changed but that doesn’t seem to have much more of an impact than there ever was, he said.
Always room for improvement Privacy laws can get in the way of agencies working together with agencies being able to only give out certain information, which can get in the way of getting enough information that police need about a person. “At the end of the day, we’re trying to help people and agencies all have their own privacy legislation,” says Lecky, adding the different privacy policies can be one big obstacle to sharing information. Agencies have to be cautious with the information they share, even with police. And we do have to respect people’s rights and privacy especially when it comes to mental health as it can have impacts on people’s lives, said Lecky. All the agencies have the same goal and they try to share what they can. For example, police can’t call up to ask about details on a person with schizophrenia or if that person does have a mental illness, but if the person is in police custody showing signs consistent with the illness, then an agency can share a little more and might say that somebody needs to see the person or the person needs to be redirected to them. “I understand the need for it but at the end of the day, if the goal is to try to help and keep (a person) out of trouble, there’s got to be something done with the legislation.”

EDITORIAL
Promise WITH EFFORTS nowadays mostly directed at plowing and sanding roads, bridges and the like instead of building or improving them, it may be a bit early to talk about the latter. Except, of course, when it comes to the Sande Overpass, that section of Hwy16 which can mystify and terrify even the most experienced of drivers. It’s been a couple of months now since provincial transportation minister Todd Stone dropped in on city council to invite people to take part in his ministry’s gathering of opinion leading to the next decade or so of transportation projects throughout the province. Mr. Stone then sweetened his appearance with a promise of something to ease the traffic congestion and pattern that now marks the Sande Overpass. A promise is somewhat different than a commitment as the latter is usually taken as something more substantial. Regardless, Mr. Stone’s promise was the most encouraging word to come out of the provincial government since it was unsuccessful in bringing along CN on a plan to construct a second overpass in the latter part of the last decade. But now, with a new year just starting and the transportation ministry no doubt starting to work on budgets for the province’s next budget year beginning April 1, a reminder letter from city council to Mr. Stone might be justifiably in order.

She’s rational about storm rations
his is my third day cocooned at home by a blizzard which has at times limited visibility to two neighbours on either side. Meanwhile though my feet cannot roam my thoughts do. Shovelling a footpath to the mailbox and on to the snowplowed street this forenoon I realized this is perfect weather for finding a new address if one were inclined to move. Instead of selecting a property in summer for its leafy trees and sunny lawn, it would be more useful to view the lot following a midwinter storm that levels not only the driveway but much of the yard in knee deep snow packed by wind to resemble concrete. We found this lot in May lumpy with rocks from fist size up. We bulldozed and hauled the rocks away. They never returned. But snow never misses a season. The kicker is probably by January 16 our first monsoon of the year will melt all the snow and my driveway will be a shallow sea navigable only by waterproof Wellingtons.

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI I could restock groceries in several ways – a trip to town by taxi, by bus, with friends. But I refuse to bend to a three-day storm. I’ve weathered worse storms longer. So it’s “storm rations’ for a day or two: milk frozen months ago for just such an occasion. Defrosted, it’s smooth in coffee and the taste is perfect. But when hot oatmeal touches the milk, it curdles. My tongue tells me it’s fine; my eyes say otherwise. Because I’ve run out of fresh berries, I’m down to oranges and apples, just as when I was a prairie farm kid.
Online I’ve put a hold on several library books I’ll pick up when next in town. Currently I’m reading “Rurally Screwed” by Jessie Knadler, a Montana born New York journalist who wrote articles for women’s magazines before marrying a Baltimore horseman and moving to 80 acres in Lexington, Virginia. Her husband used a skid steer to trench a waterline to their barn, plant fruit trees, and build fences for neighbours. From the Internet I learned a skid steer was first designed in 1958, perfected through the years, and now everyone calls it a Bobcat. Another library book I enjoyed reading from cover to cover was “The Urban Hermit”, a humorously written memoir by Sam Macdonald. An unemployed Yale graduate living in Boston, Macdonald was weighed down by massive debts – student loans, income taxes, credit cards as well as thousands borrowed from his parents for car repairs – and 340 pounds. To save all the money he could he limited himself to 800 calories per day, spending no more than $8 weekly
S TANDARD
for groceries. He bought lentils, eggs, canned tuna, bread, and rice. A year into his diet, he added black beans for variety. He boiled the lentils, beans and eggs adding only salt. Sometimes he went several days without realizing he hadn’t eaten. To take his mind off hunger pains he walked miles daily, exercise that cost only shoe repairs. At 169 pounds he had no more debts. He concluded lentils are tasteless. But he proved lentils have as much protein as steak. A half cup of uncooked lentils has 340 calories, the energy equivalent of an average meal along with a glass of milk and a piece of fruit like an apple; there is no reason for families on social assistance to go to bed hungry and malnourished if someone will only cook the lentils and serve them. A 900 gram package of red split lentils costs $2.99 at the Wholesale Club. Cooked and added to soups or main dishes, they economically satisfy hunger and nutritional needs.

The Mail Bag City quick to help fix library door Dear Sir: In The Terrace Standard on Wednesday, January 7 Claudette Sandecki’s weekly opinion piece, Through Bifocals, titled “The Act of Vandalism We Keep Paying For” set to outline that the tax payers of Terrace should be horrified by the library having to pay an exorbitant heating bill (with tax payers dollars) due to a prior instance of vandalism to the door as well as the City of Terrace having to pay staff time to fix the door periodically (with taxpayers dollars). While some of the things mentioned in her article are true there are a few things that need to be stated and clarified. It is true that the door has had some issues in closing properly and thus was being left open. However, it has never been for a large extended period of time as Sandecki states “the doors had been constantly open that way for several days…” If at all, it has only ever been for a few hours. When this problem arose, the city staff, which are always quick to respond to our needs in times of emergency, came to fix the door. With the exception of one particular instance, over the holidays, the door has only needed its track cleaned as it is the time of year where dirt, salt, and other debris find itself getting lodged and slowing or stopping the door. The one exception, during the holidays, was due to the door opening and closing too fast and thus jammed itself open. The city staff member came on the weekend during holiday hours (when he was actually on vacation) to fix the door so it would close for the night keeping the library and art gallery safe from any potential harm.

STEAM RISING from the Nesjavellir Geothermal Power Station in Iceland.
Why not warm to geothermal? Dear Sir: The sudden drop in the price for oil presents an opportunity to take advantage and invest in a trillion dollar industry. That opportunity is geothermal energy. Oil and gas are finite resources. They may last one, three or even 10 more generations but geothermal, as well as wind and solar power, are infinite resources. Geothermal energy is more abundant in all three Western
provinces; BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan. All provinces of Canada have experience with wind farms and solar energy but much less with geothermal. With the now much lower world oil prices there may soon be some idle oil and gas drilling rigs. The equipment, man power and engineering skills of this industry could quickly be adapted to drilling for and establishing geothermal en-
ergy plants ensuring continued employment and economic growth. Piping, control systems and much more, though sometimes in smaller scales, could be distributed throughout the provinces. These new geothermal power plants could then assist in providing the base power load required for the integration of wind and solar power facilities to feed into, along with the present power production facilities and
electrical grid. Some of these geothermal systems could be installed in a matter of months, not several years as conventional power plants require. The current $1.4 billion subsidy and tax credits for the oil and gas sector could go towards the development of this industry and would provide a better Return on Investment (ROI).

ineral exploration and development has safely provided opportunity to generations of northwest residents and it will continue to do so. Our world-renowned deposits of gold, silver, copper, and other critical metals such as zinc and molybdenum, not only provide a source of much needed commodities the world needs but also local family-sustaining jobs and tax revenues to government – revenue which builds schools and hospitals and roads throughout every community in British Columbia. As British Columbians, we all care deeply about our province and its environment. Studies show resource extraction is viewed as a positive and necessary undertaking, but B.C. residents from all areas demand sustainable practices and strong regulatory oversight. Responsible mineral exploration and development requires a permitting and environmental as-
sessment system that is detailed and flexible enough to protect our shared environment, yet straightforward and reliable enough to attract investment and provide certainty for the industry to invest hundreds of millions of dollars annually into our economy and people. British Columbia has a robust environmental assessment process. Project proponents commit to years of effort and multiple studies in order to complete an environmental application. The environment is not the only thing protected, accommodation and negotiation with First and Treaty Nations as well as local communities are mandatory components of every application. Further, at each stage, input from the public is requested and taken into account. The completed environmental assessment is a very comprehensive document – for major projects it can run to tens of thousands of pages long. Because of this robust system and our passionate citizens, B.C.
GUEST COMMENT
GAVIN DIROM is sometimes viewed as a difficult jurisdiction to explore and develop mineral resources. Results, however, speak otherwise. In 2014, northern B.C. saw major projects, like Seabridge Gold’s KSM project near Stewart and Alloycorp’s Kitsault molybdenum project, successfully complete the environmental assessment process and 2015 will
see several more mine projects move forward, such as Kemess Underground, Blackwater and Brucejack. Government, in partnership with industry advocacy organizations like the Association for Mineral Exploration BC AME BC (AME BC), is also constantly looking for improvements. In 2012, duplicate environmental assessment processes between federal and provincial governments were removed, creating a significant time and cost savings for both government and industry without sacrificing rigour. Also, between 2011 and 2014, the B.C. government halved exploration and mining Notice of Work permitting processing times, meaning companies can plan and undertake work more efficiently. In 2015, AME BC will release a top policy and recommendations document to help governments continue to provide world-class environmental protection as well as increased certainty for industry.
Though commodity prices are currently not at their peaks, British Columbia is in an enviable position worldwide. We have the proven mineral development potential, the infrastructure, the skilled work force, the stable government, and the comprehensive permitting and environmental assessment processes to continue attracting investors, explorers, and developers. Our locally grown exploration and development companies are innovative, determined, and experienced, constantly finding ways to work more efficiently and creatively. In 2015, and beyond, the mineral exploration and development industry, which has provided the world much needed commodities and sustained so many of northwest B.C.’s towns and communities for generations, will continue to do so with pride. Gavin C. Dirom is President & CEO of the Association for Mineral Exploration BC which will host its Mineral Exploration Roundup 2015 conference in Vancouver Jan. 26-29, 2015.

Garbage dumping on Crown land results in a fine ONE PERSON has been fined for the dumping of two mattresses in Thornhill last month. The fine for dumping garbage on crown land is $115, which this person has to pay, but can be higher depending on the severity, said conservation officer Ryan Gordon. To get a heftier fine, the conservation officer would have to take the case to court, he said. This person, who will not be named until he pays the fine at which time he is declared guilty, has 30 days to pay the fine or it goes to a collection agency, he added. “We can also compel people to pick up the garbage they dumped after they’ve paid,” said Gordon. In this case, the regional district works and services staff cleaned up the refuse. It was up to the conservation office to issue a fine because the items dumped were on crown land, which falls under the provincial government’s jurisdiction. The person was caught due to evidence with the mattresses and other garbage left with it, he said, adding he wasn’t sure what that evidence was, but that usually it is receipts.
Ted Ramsey On Dec. 12, a resident sent an email to The Terrace Standard, the regional district and Terrace RCMP saying that a pair of queen sized mattresses had been dumped on the west side of Celgar Road, south of JK’s gravel pit, and expressing anger about “these impromptu landfills.” “I tire of reporting these incidents especially when little to nothing improves,” said the email writer. If people see someone dumping garbage, they are asked to call the Report all Poachers and Polluters hotline (1877-952-7277 or on cell #7277) and report it and to gather evidence if it’s safe to do so, such as getting a licence plate number, or photos, said Gordon. On the ministry of
environment website, there is also a link to report violators online on the conservation officer service page. Since last year, the conservation officer service received 20 calls about littering, said Gordon. “A lot goes unreported so it does not show the whole [story],” he said. “For every one that gets reported, there’s probably three others that don’t.” Also a lot of vehicles are dumped, probably five or six a year, he added. Individuals are usually the ones dumping garbage and not businesses, said Gordon. And they can go out of their way by a long distance to dump it. For example, there are several dump sites up the Copper Forest Service Road about 15 kilometres up, which is way further than any dump, he said. “So it’s folks deliberately going out and dumping, not just your campers going out with a little bit of garbage, it’s a whole pickup truck full,” said Gordon, adding he’s seen things like televisions and dishwashers which were dropped off the side of the road into the river.
He said maybe it’s a misunderstanding people have that their garbage is going to cost them to take to the dump but usually household waste doesn’t have a cost. “I just dropped off a dishwasher the other day and it was free,” he said. Ted Ramsey, regional district director for Thornhill, said something needs to be done about illegal dumping. “We’ve got several of those areas that need to be dealt with and not just with a new dump,” said Ramsey. “People have been dumping in there for years. I’ve had my fill.” Thornhill bylaw enforcement officer Murray Daly said other problem dumping areas in Thornhill include CanCel Road near Sharples between Crescent and Thornhill Frontage Road; near the Copper River bridge down to the Skeena River and the backroads near Chindemash and other rivers. These are spots that often gather garbage after someone dumps some and then others follow, said Daly. “Some blows you away. It’s way more effort and farther away than to go to the transfer station,” he said.
City ponders methods to involve residents BY ANNA KILLEN
CITY COUNCIL is expected Jan. 26 to confirm the list of city committee appointments to be taken on by councillors. The list is being developed by mayor Carol Leclerc after asking individual councillors for their committee preferences ranging from finance to the public library to recreation to the Riverboat Days committee. Leclerc, who was sworn into office in early December, has also asked councillors for their opinions on how the current committee structure has worked over the past several years. That means there could be some changes as to which community groups receive city liai-
sons and which don’t, with staff indicating they would be in communication with various groups in the coming weeks. One of the major discussion points of a council session in December was laying out to community groups the role of a city council appointee to those groups. For instance, there was consensus that a city council appointee should not be expected to attend every committee or group meeting. Council members also discussed the challenge of communicating with city residents and councillors appeared keen on town-hall style meetings or community forums. “That’s something I heard a
lot about during the campaign,” said first-term councillor Michael Prevost. “A lot of people wanting opportunities to discuss topics of concern with council.” Prevost added that the topics would have to be specific in order for the meetings to stay on track and that the city should consider ways to engage people where they’re at, outside of council chambers. Leclerc said that the public would probably appreciate further information on the Skeena Industrial Development Park. “When we finish our strategic planning … it would be nice to do some shoulder tapping in the community and tell them this is what are plans are going forward,” she said.

Geothermal worth a look Studies have shown return on investment is up to 400 per cent for every dollar invested in energy efficiencies. One can look to Ontario and Quebec for examples of substantial creation of full time, well paying employment due to incentives and subsidies. The greater the re-
turn on investment from renewable energy is the reason people like Warren Buffet invests billions in such systems. Countries like China, India and the USA create greater employment and lower their costs by reducing their import costs of oil, gas and coal while reducing their carbon emissions
at the same time. Sixty percent of Canada’s electrical power production is currently developed by hydro power, which is water being pushed through turbines. If we were able to produce the remaining 40 per cent through the development of geothermal with wind and
solar as supplemental sources, Canada could become a 100 per cent renewable energy powerhouse. As a footnote Canada has the unique opportunity to take advantage of having the longest shoreline of all countries in the world. The Bay of Fundy’s tidal action and water

Library doors were repaired
The beginning of the next work week, Monday, the All West Glass automatic door repair staff came and inspected the door and found out that the door needed a new part, which has since been ordered. The City of Terrace has had a great history of meeting the library’s needs and this is seen on a regular basis when we need something fixed, our walkways cleared, our grounds tended to, or in partnering together on an initiative to name a few. I know Claudette Sandecki is only looking out for the library and the taxpayer, however, I felt it needed to be clarified that the door was not open for several days on end and the city was more than diligent in this instance.

Bear Creek Group expands business BEAR CREEK Group, which owns Lakelse Air, has purchased Pacific Western Helicopters, in what is being called a strategic move. “The main reason we wanted it is to get the Dease Lake base,” said company official Bill Hesse about the deal which was completed Dec. 17 for Pacific Western which has bases in northern B.C. and Alberta. “We have a pretty good presence all the way up Hwy 37 in the northwest and we’ve always worked well with Pacific Western up in that area. We have the same aboriginal agreement with the Tahltan Nation up there so it’s just a real great fit for us to do that.” He added that with the deal comes a hangar in Prince George, which is a good fit for doing heavy maintenance and more centralized. Bear Creek already does maintenance here but as the fleet of helicopters grows, the new hangar will provide more space, said Hesse. The sale took place now because the owners of Pacific Western wanted to sell, he added. The deal is for most of the company but not all of it. “We ended up buying probably over half of the company but some remaining assets did stay with the previous owners: one hangar in McKenzie, Grande Cache and downtown Prince George and some helicopters but the bulk of the business was bought,” said Hesse. Those weren’t included in the deal but that doesn’t keep Bear Creek from doing business in those places if it wants, he said. “They’re not part of the nuts and bolts of it. What we got was what we wanted,” Hesse said. Hesse wouldn’t give the exact amount paid but said it was a fair market value price so it was fair for both parties. Lakelse Air has 12 helicopters and now is adding five from Pacific Western. “What it allows us to do is provide a cohesive network and improve our service to people in the northwest,” Hesse said.

New Year’s baby carries on name tradition TERRACE’S NEW year’s baby shares a middle name with her sisters, mom and great-grandmas. Mariah Rose Gurney was born at 8 p.m. Jan. 2, weighing nine pounds and three ounces, to mom Allison at Mills Memorial Hospital, seven days after her expected birth date of Dec. 26. She was also welcomed by her three older siblings: Bryson, 7; Keishia, 3 and Jazlyn, 2. Allison, 24, says her mom named her Allison Rose – her middle name is her grandmother’s name – and she liked it so much she also gave it to all three of her daughters as their middle name. It’s also Mariah’s great-grandmother’s name on her dad’s side. “My son wanted to name my daughter ‘cupcake,’” said Allison, adding when everyone went to the store, Bryson wanted to get his baby sister something so he chose a little undershirt with cupcakes on it. He really wanted a brother but is happy to have three sisters, she added. Mariah and her family live in New Aiyansh. Northern Health announced that the first baby of the new year born in the region was a boy in Fort St. John on New Year’s Day. The new year’s babies born in Prince Rupert, Smithers and Kitimat were all girls born on Jan. 2, 3 and 4, respectively.

MARIAH ROSE Gurney is the city’s first baby of 2015. Here she is with her mother Allison.
Being crafty means saving money WITH CHRISTMAS over and people low on cash even though birthdays and other giftgiving days are coming up, being crafty can come in handy for having gifts ready and can even help out when bills are due. Kelsey Lockhart has been crafting most of her life, having learned crocheting and scrapbooking from her grandmas, and is passing it onto her children too. The first thing she remembers making herself was a tiny little neon coloured crochet Barbie blanket. “I keep crafting because for one I like making things but I also like giving my family members gifts I’ve made that are more personal than bought ones, like the picture pillows I made for my sister. “I’ve made a bit of everything when it comes to crafts, I’ve crocheted hats and slippers, made candles, sewed baby car seat bunting bags, and made a ton of reusable sandwich bags I’ve sold at numerous crafts fairs and farmers markets and on Facebook. She said she can look at things and see that she can make them. She will attempt to make just about anything. “I’m super cheap so if I want something I just make it. I’ve painted my lake boat with camo flames. I’ve reupholstered vehicle seats. I’ve sewn everything from curtains to cushions to prom dresses!” She believes children should know how to craft and they do learn it in daycare but it’s great when parents craft with their children

In fact most of everything my family gets from my daughter and I are homemade gifts! And she’s found that besides giving the homemade items away or selling on Facebook or at the farmers market, that they do come in handy when money’s a bit tight. “For a while there, I was sewing every day after work to get pin up aprons done to sell for extra cash but it’s worth it in the end when you can pay your bills with creativity!” Her reusable bags have done the best for her. “I’ve managed to pay my rent many times when in a pinch by selling those!” She started making the reusable sandwich bags so her daughter Brooke could take her lunch in “a cool unique bag.” “I remember when I first started selling them and she told me one day after school that at lunchtime, some kids were talking about their bags and she was stoked because I made them.” She is always working on something or has an idea in mind for her next project and says the best part is being able to make something you once had in mind and sharing it with those you care about. And she also loves receiving homemade gifts. And in future, she’d like to have a little shop full of homemade crafts or a place to

I
miss Bonus, my first cat. He was a ginger cat and he took naps with me when I was five years old. He was called “Bonus” because when my mom’s brother gave him to us he came with a box of cat food. I miss Nelson, he was a wild cat, a barn cat that my dad’s brother gave to me when I was 25. He was a black and white cat, a Tuxedo, and I named her Nellie, after the famous Manitoba suffragette. I took the cat, I mean I captured it in my apartment in Winnipeg, to take to the vet. “Oh, “ the vet said, “there are his little testicles,” so I renamed him Nelson. It is difficult to describe my relationship with Nelson, because he was such a very bad kitten who turned out to be such a great pet. For example, I was at a meeting involving social services practitioners in Winnipeg, drinking coffee out of a Styrofoam cup, and this guy says to me, “Got a new kitten?” I said, “Yeah, how did you know?” and he gestured at my thoroughly scratched arms. For years later, I took photos of Nelson reclining calmly on a sofa or snuggling sweetly with my baby and sent them to my uncle at Christmas. He and my aunt were sorely amazed. These were the best things about Nelson: he lived a very long time, 18 years; he had a voice-activated purr: you could look at him and say, “What a good cat!” from across the room and he would purr; he was a jump-up cat; you could pat your lap and say “Jump up!” and he would. I really don’t know anything better

I miss my cat than a jump-up cat. Then, like cats do, he died. That’s what you get for loving a cat! Sorrow. I feel I am not being a proper Stoic: I know that getting attached to things brings unhappiness. I miss Grey Cat, an almost-nameless stray who wandered onto our back porch one day, skinny and mangy, who would NOT come in, but who would partake of food and drink served En plein air. He liked to sit 10 feet away from Nelson on the back porch where together they would survey their savanna. He did NOT like it when we captured him and took him to the vet where they diagnosed him with Feline Leukemia, a disease which meant he was not able to absorb nutrients from food.
I miss Hercule, a stray kitten who appeared from under our shed and a week later gave birth to Kip, a mighty hunter. Herc disappeared one fine day, soon after I brought a baby home, and after she had taught Kip to run up a tree and hide and hunt. Kip would hunt ravens in the backyard, even though I WARNED HER, saying, “Who is zooming who?!” We suspect she got hunted by the eagles she was hunting. That’s it! we said, No more cats! They always lead to heartbreak. Then the neighbour-boy brought a small grey tabby in an uncovered cardboard box to our front door and said, “Is this your cat?” I said No, but by then she had jumped out of the box into our house and into my heart. I miss Katey, also known as Not Now Kato! because she enjoyed employing sudden sneak attacks to keep us on our guard. I miss Dusty, who I let into my house only because he matched the description of a missing cat from Thornhill. I phoned the young woman and said I spotted a large Maine Coon in my backyard and she asked, “Does he have blue eyes?” I said, “No, I am pretty sure they are grey.” “Can you check?” she asked. I have seen the disappointment of a young woman coming to the house to see a stray only to realize, No, it’s not mine, several times. Well, once I let him in, he ate of the Kato food, and soon we realized he was a jump-up cat. During the last snow, I saw cat footy-prints on the back porch. I am hoping for a voice-activated purr.

Kitselas continues water search FRESH WATER is coming to the Kitselas First Nation’s community of Gitaus. The community, located east of Terrace just off of Hwy16 and one of two Kitselas residential areas, has been trucking in potable water from Thornhill for more than two years after the community’s main well suddenly dried up. That had been predicted by the designers of the original water systems when it was built in the 1990s. Residents have grown weary of the added chlorine and water restrictions during heat waves, said Kitselas chief councillor Joe Bevan. Luckily, the search that began in 2014 has located two aquifers which Bear Creek Contracting is currently fitting with pipes that will
connect to the Gitaus water system. “We are getting some work done on it right now. We found aquifers out there and we are starting to tap into them now. We have a drilling
programming and area swinging out some new pipe to the water tower,” said Bevan. The crew was originally looking at spots in the Kleanza Creek park area but drilling
revealed water closer to the boundaries with Gitaus. Bevan said that it’s good having two aquifers at the disposal of the Kitselas “so if this one doesn’t work we
can use the other.” He said he is confident that the $3 million water system will be in place within months but he hopes that hooking both up isn’t prolonged. “I just hope it gets
done all at once and not piecemeal, section by section,” he said. The money comes from a government program that aims to provide aboriginal communities with a cleaner
water supply. He said that last summer it appeared that Gitaus residents were using a huge amount of water, but they discovered that there were in fact leaks in the system.

Petrick said there is also a metal drop box for donations but admits that sometimes it gets full despite being emptied daily. “There are big signs on the door that say please don't drop your stuff off unless the store is open,” she added. Overall Petrick said that the store “very much appreciates everyone's donations that are usable” but that the process could be improved if people didn't drop off items that were damaged and dirty and refrained from leaving items outside. In 2013 the auxiliary raised just over $106,000 for health care equipment and bursaries for health care employees. Last year, the auxiliary set a goal of $80,000 with specific goal of establishing eight bursaries of $1,000 each for students born and raised here who are now pursuing a health care field in postsecondary education.

Rental market cooling Their cost will be higher than what has been the standard in the area – homes of approximately 40 years old – because of higher land and construction costs. The average price of a new home in Terrace is $450,000, Evans notes. He says there were about 25 to 30 new housing starts in the city last year. Depending upon location and size and finishings, a new condo could cost in the neighbourhood of $375,000 with older ones, again depending upon size, selling for less, Evans continued. With the rental market cooling, there are now more homes on the market with 70 currently available, said Evans. In addition to single family house construction, some properties now in development mode are in line for townhouse or similar construction in line with the city's official community plan. One of those properties, the Kerby property at the top of Lanfear Hill which was sold last year to a numbered company from Vancouver, came up for rezoning at the city council meeting two nights ago. Sold for just under its $1.5 million asking price, the 5.2 acre property had been zoned R1 single family but the new owners now want it to be zone R3 to permit multi-family construction.

Pipeline conversion banned by province By JOSH MASSEY
THOSE CRITICAL of the planned LNG industry have one less argument in their toolbox. Or so it would seem now that the B.C. government has introduced a new regulation to prevent LNG (liquefied natural gas) pipelines from being converted for oil transport, a concern expressed by several groups since 2013. A release from the Ministry of Natural Gas Development last week says the new regulation will ease worries “expressed during environmental assessments and by First Nations about the long-term pipeline use.” Diluted bitumen is considered more hazardous in the case of a spill than gas which disperses into the air and some feared that acceptance of gas pipelines could be parlayed into a thumbs up to bitumen pipelines down the road. Attached to the Oil and Gas Activities Act, the new regulation “prohibits the BC Oil and Gas Commission from permitting any conversion of a natural gas pipeline supplying an LNG facility,” says the government release. But concerned groups say this new regulation falls short. A more permanent measure would be to actually legislate the new rule within the Oil and Gas Activities Act, says Greg Knox of SkeenaWild Conservation Trust. Knox points to a May 2014 letter from Natural Gas Development Minister Rich Coleman saying the government was examining this option. Addressed to the Office of the Wet’suwet’en First Nation, Coleman wrote that “we are working on potential preferred legal mechanism, including through legislation, to prohibit potential pipeline conversions.”
Knox said First Nations and organizations such as his see the new regulation as backing down from stronger, longer term measures hinted at in the letter. He said government should make the regulation law if it wants to fully ease the concerns of those worried about oil coming through the lines in the long term. “It was easy for the Greg Knox government to put in this regulation, therefore it is easy to undo,” said Knox. “There are several natural gas pipelines in North America that have been converted to oil pipelines in the past so it is feasible and done sometimes.” The regulation applies to all six of the major pipelines proposed for transporting natural gas from shale deposits in the northeast to planned export facilities on the coast. “If there are new, additional pipelines proposed for LNG projects, they can be added to the regulation,” the gas development ministry said in a statement. One of the larger conversions of a natural gas pipeline in Canada to an oil-carrying one is called Energy East and is being planned by TransCanada. The conversion would be part of a 4,600km pipeline project to carry oil from Alberta and Saskatchewan to refineries in Eastern Canada. This project would also feature new pipelines to carry oil and associated facilities.

Search for man in Police Briefs river to continue Woman out in cold for four hours
TERRACE RCMP responded to approximately 25 calls for service from January 8th, 8 a.m. till January 9th, 8 a.m. Here are some of those calls. A dark-coloured Dodge Dakota almost struck a pedestrian in a wheelchair on Tetrault St., went down Tetrault St., ran the stop sign at Graham Ave., then turned left onto Sparks St. Checks were done but more details could not be obtained. In Thornhill, a landlord/tenant dispute fueled by intoxication at a residence on Pine Ave. brought out police as BC Ambulance requested their assistance due to an intoxicated man causing problems. Police spoke with the people involved. A man was transported to Mills Memorial Hospital by paramedics due to a medical issue. An intoxicated man left the residence. And police responding to a report of screaming in the area of River Dr. led to officers finding a disoriented 20-year-old woman wearing minimal clothing in a state of partial undress. It was determined that she had been exposed to the elements for about four hours. She was taken to hospital. Under investigation. In a rural area, a black 2013 Dodge Ram attempted to pass a bulldozer. The bulldozer attempted to make a turn, right into the passing vehicle. No injuries. The truck sustained major damage. And in Kitsumkalum, a tool box on a snowplow was vandalized sometime during the night of January 8/9 while parked in the works yard at Gyiik Rd./Kwinitsa Ave.
THE WEATHER may have plunged into winter full-on but local search and rescue volunteers are still watching conditions to see when they can continue their search for a Red Deer man who went missing in the Skeena River in November. “We want to search a log jam and adjacent pools about 1 km below where the truck entered the water,” said Dwayne Sheppard of Terrace Search and Rescue last week. “We will drill holes in the ice and search under the log jam and adjacent pools using underwater cameras.” Dustin Steele, 23, was last seen on November 1 at approximately 9 p.m. in the Copper Flats area, when a truck he and two friends were in was driven into the river and became caught in the current, reported Terrace RCMP Nov. 3. Two of the men made it to shore and Dustin was last seen in the back of the floating truck heading down-

stream on the Skeena River, said police at that time. Search and rescue volunteers and many individuals went out for many days afterward looking for Steele. On Dec. 14, 13 volunteers conducted five different search assignments on the Skeena River, focussing on searching the shoreline and shallow water areas, said Sheppard at that time. Sheppard said some clues were found several hundred metres below where the truck was recovered; a child seat, boot and other miscellaneous items. White River Helicopters also donated flying time to the search effort, which allowed a team to search from the air and access more isolated areas, said Sheppard. “Some of the ob-

Kermodes battle Rainmakers
TERRACE RIVER KINGS PHOTO
YOU CAN’T win ‘em all. Terrace fell to Smithers last month, their second loss of the season, but bounced back to take two back-to-back wins against Prince Rupert two weekends ago.
Kings nab back-to-back wins against Rampage That’s after a streak-ending loss to Smithers late last month THE TERRACE River Kings closed out 2014 with a 3-0 loss to the Smithers Steelheads – one which ended the Kings’ months-long winning streak – but opened 2015 with two back-to-back wins against the Prince Rupert Rampage to reassert their dominance of the 2014/2015 CIHL season. That puts the Kings at 12-2 with 24 points going into this weekends’ games, the final games of the regular season. That’s a rematch in Rupert on Friday, where the Rampage will surely be looking for blood. The Kings took the Ram-
page 6-5 Friday, Jan. 2 in Terrace and 6-2 on Rupert’s ice Jan. 3. The Kings are back in Terrace this Saturday, where the Kings host the Quesnel Kangaroos, who are sitting at 6-6 in the east with 13 points at the time of this writing. That’ll be the first and only time they face off against the ‘Roos. The Williams Lake Stampeders are on top of the CIHL standings with 26 points. Terrace took its one and only regular season game against them 9-6 back in November.
CIHL playoffs start Jan. 31, with Terrace facing off against rivals the Smithers Steelheads in the first round. This should be a heated series as the Steelheads (8-4) are the only team that’s been able to beat Terrace this year, handing them both of their losses – a 5-3 loss in October in Smithers and December’s defeat, also in Smithers. And Terrace has been able to find Smithers’ number twice, a 9-4 win in Terrace on Oct. 4 and a 5-4 win in Terrace on Nov. 8. Home ice is still to be determined.
CALEDONIA KERMODE Sr. Boys travelled to Prince Rupert to challenge the #3 provincially ranked AAA Charles Hays Rainmakers in two separate games Jan. 3. Both teams were a little rusty after the Christmas layoff but the crowd was entertained as the young Kermodes battled the more experienced and deep bench of the Rainmakers. The Kermodes held their own against the Rainmakers, down 17 - 14 at the first quarter and 32 - 29 at the half. Terrace’s team then came out strong in the second half, taking the lead but by the end of the three quarters were down 46 - 42. The experienced and polished Rainmakers took over from there as they held off the gritty Kermodes for a 59 - 52 victory. Kermodes were led in scoring by Tristan Walker and Gabe Johnson with 13 each and Ryan Kunar with 11. Gavin Anderson, Trysten Derrick and Clark Mathews were warriors on the defensive end. Game 2 of the day started out much the same but as the game went on, the deep and experienced bench of the Rainmakers took over as the much shorter bench of the Kermodes ran out of gas. The Kermodes hung in in the first quarter, down 18 - 14 thanks to the hot shooting of Walker, who nailed four straight three-pointers to aid the Kermode cause. Kermode defence held strong in the first, holding the Rainmakers to 28 points and were only able to counter with 22 of their own. In the second half, the Rainmakers took over as the fresh bench took advantage of the tired Kermodes to coast to a 66 - 45 victory. Kermodes were led in scoring by Gabe Johnson with 18 and Tristan Walker with 12. Kermodes’ next home game is Friday January 16 against the Mount Elizabeth Eagles. ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ MEANWHILE, CALEDONIA’S Sr. Girls are on a roll, winning against the Charles Hays Rainmakers Jan. 3 in Prince Rupert 69-28. High scorers for that game were Khali Pelletier with 19 and Anke de Witt, Carly Davies, and Hannah Jay, all with 12. Next, the team heads to Vanderhoof for a tough tournament.
Red stuns competition at house tournament TERRACE’S RED Peewee House team, aka Dediluke Land Surveying, went undefeated at this month’s tournament, upsetting Northwest Fuels in the championship final 6-2. This was an unlikely win for the team, as they’d only won two games all season but rattled off five straight victories to win the tournament, explained coach Brian Jones in an email last week. Those wins were against Kitimat, Prince Rupert, Smithers and Hazelton. Seven teams attended the tournament, held the first weekend of the month at the Terrace Sportsplex, with three teams hailing from Terrace.
Jones said things came together for the team in a number of ways. Strong defensive play by Brett Jones, Emily Korving and Sasha Haldane made a difference. As did great goaltending by an underage goalie, Brody Goodall. Incredible hustle by forwards Liam Gudmunson, Thomas Gagnon and Jackson Hamel helped drive up points. And a timely penalty shot goal by Travis Frank played crucial. Strong team play, a great work ethic and discipline by the whole team also proved key to the win, added coach Jones.

Bantams punch above their weight IN TRUE Terrace fashion, Terrace’s Bantam Reps went into the Kamloops International Bantam Ice Hockey Tournament as the tournament underdogs – and emerged with the B championship title. The 47th annual invite-only tournament, held the first weekend in January, attracts over 30 teams from as far away as Seattle and Alaska, as well as academies and clubs from B.C. Terrace, typically a tier 3 team, competed in the tier 2 side of the tournament and won four out of six very close games – two of those in OT and two in a shootout. The team won two of their three round robin games to make it to the quarter final, where they lost 4-3 to the Vancouver Thunderbirds. That put them in the relegation pool where they won both games, including the final. “We weren’t expected to do well down there,” said assistant coach Kevin Kennedy. “We’re a small town, certainly the smallest town represented at this tournament.”

TERRACE’S BANTAM Reps after their B championship win at the 47th annual Kamloops International Bantam Ice Hockey Tournament earlier this month. And a couple of injuries and family commitments meant the bench was shorthanded. “We had defence playing for-
ward, forward playing defence,” he said. But solid goaltending from Josh Fernandes and Payton Fekete –
“they were cool as cucumbers in there” – a tight defensive core and an offence that knew how to attack when necessary helped the team
stand out. “Every kid stepped up, played exceptionally well, probably better than they’ve played all year,” said Kennedy, who coaches alongside head coach Doug Richie, Mike Lewis and Gary Lindsay. “It showed us that kids could play through [an] adversary and were able to accept and play well with whatever role we asked them to.” Mason Richey played particularly well – getting a nod on the tournament’s all-star line and the distinction of being the second highest scorer on Terrace’s side of the tournament. “Mason Richey was exceptional in overtime in the shootout,” said Kennedy. “He was instrumental in most of our OT and shootout wins. He’s a heck of an athlete.” The tournament helped Terrace see where they’re at compared to the rest of the province. “It really showed us that going into the rest of the season and into zones, that we’re able to compete. And we’re able to compete with all 16 kids on our roster,” he said. “Pretty good to know we can compete at that level.”
Avalanche Awareness Day this weekend ANYTIME YOU duck under a rope while skiing, you’re technically in the backcountry – so it only makes sense that you should have some basic backcountry skills when you’re out there. To that end, the Mount Remo Backcountry Society (MRBS) is hosting its annual Avalanche Awareness Day this Sunday, January 18 at Shames Mountain in conjunction with National Avalanche Awareness weekend. The idea is to “get people involved and engaged to raise the
A
local level of backcountry and avalanche awareness, increase people’s safety while they’re out there and get people excited about backcountry skiing as well,” said MRBS president Jupiter MacDonald. “Ideally we’d like to see people brand new or just starting out because they have the most to learn, but there’s also aspects that do get into the more complex, in depth ideas or discussions or topics so there is a broad range for all types of levels. From zero experience right up to a professional
fter a decade of fishing together every weekend and on most holidays, Mike began dating Jacquie. I’ve got a new fishing partner, he told me one crisp spring day when we were fishing the Kalum. I completely understand, I told him. And I did. During the time they were an item, Mike’s fishing was unaltered; he simply built her into his angling schedule and pursued steelhead with the same unrelenting drive. This was completely in character. Mike was passionate about the outdoors and loved to share it with his loves and his friends. One May day, Mike took Jacquie to the Gitnadoix. They cruised the slow water to Alastair Lake under a clear sky accompanied by the distant roar of avalanches. Late in the day, Mike set up camp on a flat spot suitable for that purpose. Neither of them took note of the slide chute across the river. The next morning they woke up late and enjoyed a leisurely breakfast in the morning sun before breaking camp and embarking. They stopped to fish the pool above Dog Tag Creek that Mike called the Tally Whacker, and had only just wet a line when the river dropped dramatically. After a quarter of an hour, it began to rise again but now it was choked with chunks of ice. Mike told his date how the avalanches that crossed the river forming ice dams
level, there’s always something to learn.” The all-day event’s home base will be an information tent with various materials and presentations from avalanche professionals. There will also be demonstrations at the top T-bar. There’ll be a basic and advanced beacon search plots so that people can test out avalanche gear, with volunteers demonstrating the proper procedures to use a probe, transceiver and shovel. “It’s pretty straightforward but
there are really efficient ways that have been developed over time,” said MacDonald. And efficiency is important in the rare chance there is an accident. “It all starts by trying to prevent any accidents, but if an accident does happen then people are informed and have the right knowledge to use their equipment,” he said. Backcountry skiing doesn’t have to be an “elaborate or complex trip,” he said, noting that particular attention is being paid this

year to helping everyday skiers become more aware. “There’s lots of places to go backcountry skiing where you’re in very low risk situations and then you can go all the way up into really high risk areas.” But once you go under a rope, a patroller isn’t going to come get you so increasing your knowledge is key – and that’s where this event can help. “Just some simple things that you can learn about, carry with you and practise can maybe one day – if you need it – help you or help a friend,” he said.
Another time, Mike, on one of the many days when he was exploring alone, spotted a herd of mountain goats atop one of the many rocky promontories overlooking the slow winding upper Gitnadoix. He brought his Zodiac ashore, slung his camera and tripod over his shoulder and started up the wet and icy ramparts toward the goats. Reaching a favourable location for a good shooting demanded a slow and cautious approach over perilous terrain. After a long time, Mike was close enough to his quarry to get a good shot with his longest lens. He set up carefully, almost silently. That done, he glanced down. Hundreds of feet below him was the Zodiac. It looked the size of a Tonka Toy and there was a black bear in it. The cooler in the boat was full of grub, Mike said as he related the episode to me over a game of backgammon we were playing on a board set up on the coffee table at the Fish Tales Tackle Shop when Dave Elkins was running the place. Bear claws and rubber boats don’t go well together, he added. If you wanted to see a fat man get down off a mountain in record time, you should’ve been there. As he rolled the die and slid the blots around the board, Mike told of scattering goats and bellowing from on high on his descent, finally shooing the bear before it could do any harm. Final chapter, next week…

suspension but the S model does run on 20-inch wheels and tires making it feel very connected to the road. This will not be the choice of traditional luxury buyers; they will like the more upscale 300C for grand touring. Verdict Starting at $37,395 and maxing out at $45,295 for an AWD platinum V6 model, there are many trims to choose (V8 equipped cars run roughly $2,000 more). The base is the value leader, the S is the sporty model, with standard 20-inch wheels, and the 300C Platinum is the one featuring the opulent interior. Chrysler believes that the S model will be the volume leader thanks to the aggressive black trim and chunky wheels. This is a surprise because the Dodge Charger is based on the same platform and has the whole “bad boy” attitude in spades, something the 300 looks to be mimicking. The top Platinum would be my choice because it’s interior is so different from the Dodge, something that truly separates the two cars plus it has all the latest safety features including the autonomous braking system when a crash is detected. Much has changed in 10 years for the 300 but the same goodness that was in the 2005 model is still here; it is the refinement that makes this a modern sedan.

NHTSA 5-STAR OVERALL VEHICLE SCORE FOR SAFETY*
By Bob McHugh
“Take me home Super Cruise� could be a command that future Cadillac owners may be saying to their automobile, in the not too distant future. GM’s luxury brand seems likely to be first automaker to offer a fully automated driving feature in a production vehicle. Super Cruise is one of three entries vying for the 2015 AJAC Best New Auto Safety Technology Award. A similar entry from Honda called AcuraWatch takes us to the brink of automation and another GM entry will be of interest to those who like to cruise the internet.
INCLUDES:
GM - Super Cruise: Super Cruise is the working name that GM has given a yet to be released automated driving technology that will (or can) allow hands-off-the-wheel lane following, braking and speed control, in certain highway driving situations. The goal of this technology is to increase the comfort of an attentive driver on freeways, both in bumper-to-bumper traffic and on long road trips. The claimed safety value of Super Cruise is that it could mitigate many traffic collisions and improve traffic congestion. The system sends and receives basic safety information such as location, speed and direction of travel between vehicles that are approach-

ing each other. It will warn drivers and can supplement active safety features, such as forward collision warning, already available on many production cars. Super Cruise will also add a new lanecentering technology that relies on forward-looking cameras and other sensors to detect markings, curves and other road characteristics. It will also use a series of alerts to communicate with the driver based on human factor research conducted on test tracks. A simulator is also being used to measure driver eye glance behavior and control interactions in computer-generated automated driving situations.

Keep your hands off the steering wheel the Technology and Elite editions of the new Acura TLX. An interesting new tech included in this package is the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with LowSpeed Follow (LSF). Unlike other systems of this ilk, it uses both grille-mounted (millimeter-wave) radar and a windshield mounted camera to monitor and maintain a preset vehicle speed and following distance interval to the vehicle directly ahead. The Low-Speed Follow feature is designed primarily for use in stop and go traffic. If the vehicle ahead slows to a stop, the TLX will also come to a stop. If the vehicle ahead then moves within 3 seconds, the TLX will automatically resume Low-Speed Follow mode. If the vehicle ahead does not move within 3 seconds, then the driver can resume Low Speed Follow by pressing the “RES” switch up or down, or by taping the gas pedal. Other systems included in the AcuraWatch package include Multi-Angle Rearview Camera and Cross Traffic Monitor, Forward Collision Warning, Collision
Mitigation Braking System, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Road Departure Mitigation and Blind Spot Information. GM - 10th Generation OnStar: A 10th generation of GM’s OnStar telematics system with 4G LTE has been rolled out in most of its 2015 model year vehicles. It basically turns the vehicle into a WiFi hotspot that allows occupants to connect up to seven personal devices (smartphones, laptops, tablets etc.) and have them work just like they do at home. The 4GLTE feature also enhances OnStar’s array of safety and security services and provides a more personal experience as the OnStar agent can stay on the line as they manage the vehicle data interface. A new addition is remote diagnostic, which provides a customer with a monthly health status on their vehicle and it can also assist with arranging a maintenance appointment. A clever smartphone app, called OnStar RemoteLink Key Fob Services, allows an owner to lock or unlock doors, activate the horn and lights, and remotely start a properly-equipped vehicle.
