Wolves hot topic of local presentation Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Wolves are becoming the scapegoats while the biggest threat to all wildlife around the world is habitat loss, said Sadie Parr of Wolf Awareness who made a presentation in front of

a full house at the Scout Island Nature Centre Wednesday.

Responding to the B.C. government’s plan to shoot up to 184 wolves by helicopter to protect dwindling caribou herds in the East Selkirks and South Peace, Parr said many biologists have told her if wolves are

killed, none of the caribou are going to recover because they don’t have the habitat that’s required.

“Caribou need old growth forests and are at risk of becoming extinct because of what we have done, not because of what wolves have done,” she said.

What has been protected for caribou is small and fragmented, while climate change, logging, recreation and new roads have also had huge impacts, she continued.

Ranchers share frustration in land management Continued From Page A1 For more than a decade Parr has being researching wolves and is dismayed that in Canada they can still be hunted, baited and trapped in most jurisdictions.

“B.C. has no bag limits, you can kill as many as you like, and only three regions have mandatory reporting,” she said. “Our management of wolves has not kept up with our understanding of them.”

Several ranchers affected by wolf predation on livestock took the time to attend the presentation, including Cariboo Cattlemen’s Association president Cuyler Huffman.

Echoing some of Parr’s frustrations, Huffman said deforestation in the Cariboo Chilcotin has opened up the country so that wolves can get ungulates.

“The ungulate populations have crashed where wolf populations have exploded so that’s where a lot of conflict is

Cuyler Huffman coming with ranchers in the area with predation on our cows.”

Huffman said he can’t think of one rancher who isn’t a conservationist.

“None of us want to have this problem. It’s economic, plus none of us really have the time or really want to put the effort in to kill these wolves,” he said. “I see a collaborative effort as well, but finding the answers soon enough so that we can stay in business is the challenge.”

Parr told the crowd that wolf populations increase when there’s indiscriminate killing of them.

One of the greatest

After giving a presentation to a packed house at Scout Island Nature Centre Wednesday, Wolf researcher Sadie Parr (left) speaks with Lone Butte rancher Ann Armann about various measures some ranchers are taking to co-exist on the landscape with wolves.

“When we have a stable family with one breeding pair that gets disrupted and separates, the pack goes from one breeding pair to potentially seven or eight wolves that are now looking to breed.”

The population is skewed down to teenagers who don’t necessarily know the rules and are not sufficient hunt-

“They might start taking advantage of livestock if it’s in an area they overlap with.”

Evidence during the last 25 years has shown that killing wolves results in higher numbers of wolves and more livestock losses the following year.

Parr shared a guide for ranchers on wolf

management that includes the use of putting fladry — red ribbons — on fencing to deter wolves.

The ribbons dangle at a certain height above the ground.

Originally fladry was used as a tool to funnel wolves to trap them, now they are using it to keep wolves away from livestock, she said.

AN APPLE A DAY...

St. John’s Wort is an herbal medication often suggested for mild depression. It’s very important to remember that it does have an effect on brain chemicals. If your doctor prescribes a prescription antidepressant, be sure to discontinue the St. John’s Wort.

The duplication could have serious side effects.

Breast milk is sometimes called liquid gold, the best food for newborns and recommended for at least the first six months of life. Breast milk boosts immunity and protects against many childhood infections, Now, Harvard researchers are suggesting that breastfeeding will produce better language skills by the age of three and a higher IQ by the age of seven.

All good recommendations for breastfeeding.

There are many health scams out there. Be wary of the use of words like natural (doesn’t equate with safe), or miracle or the phrases: “It’s so easy” or “It worked for me”. There’s even a weight-loss program that promises you’ll lose weight while you sleep. Check carefully before you buy. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist to get some rational perspective on these claims.

When a company releases a generic drug, every effort is made to have it look very similar to the original brand name drug. This will reduce confusion and help the patient continue to take the drug as the doctor ordered. Generics are very common in Canada. If you have any questions about generics, talk to us.

We answer questions all day every day in our pharmacy. It’s part of our job as your pharmacist and one we really enjoy.

Talk to us soon.

Another method is using range riding to ensure a human presence on the landscape two times a day.

“One place in the U.S. has tourists paying to ride the horses in the chance that they might see a wolf and at the same time protect livestock.”

Huffman told Parr a lot of range riding

already goes on in the region.

“We move our cattle on vast ranges, that’s one of the things that’s unique about this area,” Huffman said. “I can see things like flandry working in a confined area, but it’s not feasible on hundreds of thousands of acres.”

Recently Parr has been examining the dietary habits of wolves in the Brittany Triangle region of the Chilcotin for the Xeni Gwet’in, Friends of Nemiah Valley and the Valhalla Wilderness Society.

Using scat collection, remote cameras, tracking, hair collection and working with communities, she said she hopes to determine what wolves are eating.

So far she’s only been able to gather 26 scat samples and said she needs 300 scat samples for proper research.

“Wolves are spread out a lot more in that region and I’m finding less scat than I am used to, but I can tell you they are eating wild horses.”

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Operation Red Nose has come a long way in seven years, said Dave Dickson, RCMP community safety coordinator, as he thanked volunteers during an appreciation lunch hosted by the Williams Lake Rotary Club last Wednesday.

“In 2008 we gave 206 rides and raised $4,000,” Dickson smiled. “In 2014 we gave 365 rides and raised $10,000 plus.”

The number of volunteers helping provide safe rides during the Christmas season has increased from 100 to 188, he added.

Youth in the community benefit from the program, evident by the fact Rotary president Karen Eden presented cheques in the amount of $2,500 each to the Gymnastics Club, Williams Lake Skate Club, Blue Fins and Cariboo Chilcotin Youth Fiddlers during the luncheon.

In return, each club is expected to provide volunteers for each of the nights Operation Red Nose is offered.

Angie Johnson from the Gymnastics Club said she was so impressed with the young adults who used the service.

“They were 19 to 24 years olds, all so polite and they thanked us,”

Williams Lake Rotary Club president Karen Eden (left) and retired RCMP Bob McIntosh (right) of community policing present Citzens on Patrol volunteer Chris Dow with a certificate of appreciation. she said.

Eden praised Dickson for co-ordinating the program, saying without him Operation Red Nose wouldn’t be what it is.

“I want to say a huge thanks to [all of the sponsors],” he said.

Dickson also presented a certificate of appreciation to community policing volunteer Chris Dow for his dedication.

The 19-year-old has been volunteering regularly after he was recruited in 2012 by retired RCMP officer Bob McIntosh who runs the Citizens on Patrol program.

Itcha-Ilgachuz caribou in decline Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer

It’s clear for the last decade we’ve had a negative influence on recruitment ... We also know the caribou are continuing to use the stands that have been killed by mountain pine beetle”

Eastern caribou

- Rodger Stewart, Cariboo Region manager for the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations about their influence.

“We’re seeking recommendations from the experts on cost-effective means to build knowledge about wolf density, pack sizes and pack distributions in critical caribou habitat,” he said.

The ministry will need that information, which is due at the end of March 2015, to determine whether predator management is justified and to what extent.

In 2007 ministry counts revealed 1,780 caribou in the ItchaIlgachuz herd, while back in the early 70s there were as few as 400.

During the 80s and 90s the numbers steadily increased,

Effective February 10, 2015, I, Don Brown of Don Brown & Son Plumbing & Heating Inc. am retiring from the company.

At this time I would like to thank the people of Williams Lake and surrounding areas including the Chilcotin for their years of support.

It has been a pleasure working for you.

I moved to Williams Lake in 1984 and worked for Burgess Plumbing & Heating until the fall of 1997.

I left Burgess to start my own company in 1997 and added my son, Jim, as a partner to the business in 1999.

The business will continue to be a part of this community and run by my son Jim Brown and his capable staff.

Again I thank you for your support.

Sincerely, Don Brown

peaking in 2003 with 2,800 animals.

“At that time when the population was being examined by caribou experts in North America they considered that number to be at or near peak population target given the extent of the habitat that was there,” Stewart said.

June’s aerial count also showed that only eight to 10 per cent of the total population is calves, that adult female mortality is at 24 per cent and male mortality is about 15 per cent.

“It’s clear for the

last decade we’ve had a negative influence on recruitment,” Stewart said, pointing out in the past the calf percentage didn’t go below 16 per cent and had gone as high as 24 calves per hundred cows.

Core high value habitat in the Itcha and Ilgachuz is protected by parks and wildlife habitat areas that were established by the Cariboo Chilcotin Land Use Management Plan, however, during the last few winters most of the habitat use has been outside of those

Stewart said there are plans to count caribou in the eastern part of the Cariboo region this coming March.

Since the death of wildlife biologist Randy Wright in 2012, who focused his efforts on the herd, there haven’t been the resources to continue his work, Stewart said.

Before Wright became ill, the wolf population had been reduced to less than five wolves per 1,000 square kilometres, a target that was expected to provide a foundation for recovery in that area.

“We had the habitat, we had reduced the disturbances and we had reduced the

wolves,” Stewart said.

“We have not had the resources to monitor the wolf pack since then.”

With the count, the ministry expects to determine if there are any influences despite having lost track of the wolf packs.

“There were 14 wolf packs that were preying on the caribou in that area,” Stewart recalled.

An external expert, Dr. Bob Hayes, who examined the work Wright was doing, concluded the work should continue because it would allow for examining the effect of predation reduction on caribou population dynamics.

“It’s just that we would never have secured the resources to be able to give that project the same kind of monitoring and treatment scenarios as what’s being done in the Kootenays and the Peace,” Stewart said.

While there are presently no plans to kill wolves in the Cariboo-Chilcotin region a research project is underway to determine if wolf predation is impacting the Itcha-Ilgachuz mountain caribou.

“The latest aerial count shows an evident decline,” said Rodger Stewart, Cariboo Region manager for the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

“We counted 1,350 caribou in work we did this past June.”

Earlier this month ecologist Dr. Scott McNay of Wildlife Infometrics in Mackenzie and a team of experts began examining the caribou population dynamics to assess the influence of predation on the Itcha-Igachuz caribou population.

The team will also study the element of wolves, Stewart told the Tribune, adding available data on wolves is too weak at this time to draw definitive conclusions

The people on the stairs Recent reports in mainstream media announcing that prolonged sitting can kill you has gotten a lot of traction here at the Tribune/Weekend Advisor office –– literally.

As the editorial department, we have what we feel is the enviable position of being the only department on the second floor of our building.

Being removed from the rest of staff helps us foster teamwork and keeps our focus when we are concentrating on writing, which in turn helps us meet our everpresent deadlines.

In the past week, however, our department has been getting disturbed by hourly walk-bys up and down the stairs from other department staff as they move their way to better health.

What is moving them?

Well, according to the latest study in which Canadian researchers compiled information from 41 international studies, sitting too long throughout the day can apparently kill you.

They found the amount of time a person sits during the day is directly associated with a higher risk of heart disease, diabetes,

cancer and death, even if you get regular daily exercise.

According to the study, people who sit all day have a 15 to 20 per cent higher risk of death from any cause; a 15 to 20 per cent higher risk of heart disease, death from heart disease, cancer, death from cancer; and as much as a 90 per cent increased risk of developing diabetes –– and that was after adjusting for the effects of regular exercise.

For those of us who spend hours working at our desks in front of a computer, the study suggests we should aim to decrease the amount of time we are sedentary by two to three hours over the course of a 12-hour day.

The researchers suggest people set an alarm to remind themselves to stand up at work and move around for one to three minutes every half hour or consider a standing work station.

We suspect we’ll be hearing the sounds of footsteps up and down the stairs for some time to come.

Now you’ll have to excuse us.

Our timer’s just gone off.

Restructuring comes with the good and the bad It is never an easy job when employers have to tell employees they no longer have a job.

There have been thousands of jobs lost in our country in the last 10 days, many of them related to restructuring because of the economy. Gibraltar Mine is an example as they also dropped jobs.

Here in Williams Lake, city council eliminated eight positions because they are attempting to achieve a zero per cent tax increase. It is too bad employees had to go and it certainly will affect them.

Contemplating Ken

I believe council has to manage what is best, in their opinion, and cutting jobs will save

the community $4 million dollars over the next five years.

Often when new mayors and councillors are elected they do the tough stuff first because in a couple of years a lot of people will forget about it anyhow.

Provincial and Federal governments do the same.

In Williams Lake there are no further recommendations for restructuring, says mayor Cobb, and as he has stated for some time council will be re-instating the city’s Economic Development Corporation. Good move council, get people on the

board, then rock n’ roll.

Apparently one councillor voted against the economic move. Don’t know who cast the negative vote, but I think I know.

It sure is nice to see volunteerism working so well by so many in Williams Lake and area. One of the younger members of Walt Cobb’s campaign for mayor has put together a real nice weekend for good ole Willy’s Puddle. Darrick Boyes and many other volunteers are holding the First Annual Winter Carnival Jan. 31 and Feb 1,

and it looks like there are great events for everyone of all ages.

Of course there will be food booths and a chilli cook-off, that could help things warm up a bit. The organizing group of volunteers has been helped by Cariboo GM, many other businesses and the BCGEU, as they have sponsored different events.

Take some time Saturday or Sunday to take in the 1st annual Williams Lake Winter Carnival.

Hippy science is easy, and wrong B.C. Views

with Tom Fletcher

Did you do a “cleanse” to start the year? A diet or supplements to, you know, “detox” your body?

Please, if you did, I don’t want the details. I’m here to discuss the underlying assumptions of this fad. TV presenter Dr. Oz is a promoter of various schemes, soup diets and the like, but there are many books and consumer products being flogged.

“Supplements, tea, homeopathy, coffee enemas, ear candles and foot baths promise you a detoxified body,” writes Ontario pharmacist Scott Gavura, who treats cancer patients with medicine’s most potent drugs.

Frustrated by the pharmacy industry’s willingness to cash in on fake cures for nonexistent conditions, Gavura began contributing to ScienceBasedMedicine.org, where you can search “detox” find his takedown of this notion.

He traces the roots of purification rituals in religious and medical history, such as when patients were bled with leeches.

Actual “detox” is administered in hospital for those with dangerous levels of drugs, alcohol or other poisons. Credible physicians abandoned theories of “autointoxication” in the 19th century.

“Today’s version of autointoxication argues that some combination of food additives, salt, meat, fluoride, prescription drugs, smog, vaccine ingredients, GMOs and perhaps last night’s bottle of wine are causing a buildup of ‘toxins’ in the body,” Gavura writes. “And don’t forget gluten. Gluten is the new evil and therefore, is now a toxin.”

Gluten-free products now occupy whole sections of grocery stores, not far from the pricey “organic” produce that may or may not be tested for synthetic pesticides.

Living in the Lower Mainland 20 years ago, I noticed people lugging big plastic jugs to the grocery store to fill with water. Metro Vancouver is a rainforest, with some of the best tap water in the world, so I wondered what they were trying to avoid.

Discreet inquiries yielded similar answers. Aside from the odd superstition about chlorine or fluoride, they had no idea at all. They didn’t know about the Coquitlam reservoir, or ozonation, or what they were buying, which was essentially municipal water run through a filter. They had been convinced to pay $2 for water in plastic bottles, and this somehow led to the conclusion that their tap water is only fit for washing clothes and driveways.

Vaccinations? Don’t get me started. In the past year I have had an argument with a registered nurse at a blood donor clinic, annoyed that the health ministry denied her imagined “right” to infect frail patients with influenza, and with a veteran politician who only recently overcame a vague taboo against putting vaccines in her body.

It’s no wonder people constantly fall for enviro-scares like toxins from the Alberta oil sands that are actually concentrated in cities

where all that fuel is burned, or the threat of genetically modified canola oil, or smart meters. The media are frequently part of the problem, lacking scientific literacy and preferring conflict over common sense.

Take Vancouver (please). The mayor rose to fame with a company that sold overpriced imported tropical fruit juice in single-serving plastic bottles. Calling it “Happy Planet” convinced a new generation of urban rubes that they’re doing something for the environ-

ment. Plus, there are “no chemicals” in it, to cite the central myth of hippy science. At the risk of giving you too much information, I did a cleanse last year. It was for a screening colonoscopy, one of many that have taxed the B.C. health care system since a new test was added to the standard medical checkup.

Try that one if you’re over 50.

The evolution of the forest industry in the Interior In his book Tie Hackers and Timber Harvesters, Ken Druska reviews the ways that the industry has tried to cope with the volatile prices of lumber and chips.

This is a good resource for anyone interested in the history of logging in the Interior of this province. In the introduction, Druska mentions how the history of the Interior differs from the Coast. The Interior developed through local entrepreneurs and family owned business.

The author takes us from axes and cross cut saws to sophisticated and expensive harvesters and milling operations which produce lumber at an astonishing rate but apparently puts us in a less competitive position in the global market.

I will compress the information to help us understand how the present system evolved and hopefully assist in trying to understand how we have arrived at the sorry state that we are in according to Druska.

The author starts in the 1800s with steam-powered mills produc-

Forest Ink Jim Hilton ing lumber for the railroads, early settlements and the mining industry. In the early 1900s logs were being moved by rivers and wood flumes. Gas-powered crawler tractors replaced horses for long skidding distances and trucks were used for hauling logs and lumber.

The strength and resourcefulness of the railroad tie makers was legendary and was an important job for many locals.

At the end of the Second World War chain saws started replacing axes and cross cut saws, forklifts, and some surplus war vehicles along with larger capacity logging trucks were replacing the older systems. As the timber was being used near the local mills, portable bush

mills were showing up all over the Interior.

The rough cut lumber was transported to the planer mills located in the larger towns. Many families that became major tenure holders started with these portable bush mills.

The 1960s saw the government come up with a new form of tenure, “Pulp Harvesting Agreement,” which provided the assurance of a timber supply for the financing of the new pulp mills. Handling the increasing amount of logs necessitated the development of new specialized equipment including rubber tired skidders, huge lifters to quickly unload logging trucks and load trains. Mechanized shears and feller bunchers started replacing the chain saws.

The 1970s saw even more technological transformations with the development of the “chip-n- saws” which were able to quickly process the ever increasing smaller diameter logs.

The logs had to be debarked before they were turned into square

cants which were easily sawn into lumber by thin curf blades. In this way the sawdust was reduced by 25 per cent and 60 to 79 per cent of the logs ended up as lumber and the remainder was turned into high quality chips for the pulp mills.

The processing improved the sawing of logs from 20 feet per minute to over 300 feet per minute with some of the later models.

These saws were so successful that most mills changed over to chip-nsaws and the saying goes that owners could become millionaires in five months with the introduction of these upgrades.

The logging had to also modernize with the ever increasing demand for logs.

As a result the chain saw and line skidder were replaced with feller bunchers, grapple skidders and log processors.

Small independent owners of logging equipment were replaced by multiphase owners who often had logging trucks, modern skidders or forwarders and loaders, processors etc. that totalled in the

millions of dollars.

These new operators could produce and deliver over 25 loads per day compared to five loads with the old equipment.

The mill owners preferred the large logging operators since they could reduce the number of contractors to deal with plus a greater likelihood of getting the quality and quantity of logs they needed.

Unfortunately many jobs were lost and the jobs pre cubic meter of logs moved was reduced considerably.

While many of the old jobs were very demanding and physical with high turnovers it also meant older workers could not compete with the younger less experienced who where more suited to the computerized and complex operating systems.

The Royal Purple has donated a mobility bike for handicapped children to the Child Development Centre in Williams Lake. The bike will be used by a four-year-old child with cerebral palsy, and will give the child independence and better mobility. The bike can be driven by any part of the body — including knees, legs, arms or even their forehead — and can be adapted to any other child in the future when this child has outgrown it. With more mobility and independence the child can join in more activities, even outdoors, with other kids, and will help the child to grow and interact. Here, the CDC’s Colleen Onofrechuk accepts the donation from Royal Purple’s Maurene Lepart-Cudlipp.

Robbie Burns Night celebrations set With all the charm of Scottish heritage, the annual Robbie Burns Night celebration is set to take place at the legion Saturday night.

“I love it. It’s just so much fun,” said the legion’s head bartender, Chrissy Folland, who will have worked Robbie Burns night 10 years in a row after this weekend’s event.

“It’s a blast. Everybody has a good, oldfashioned time.”

Cocktails are at 5 p.m. and dinner is at 7 p.m. with the traditional Scottish fare of roast Black Angus beef, neeps (turnips), bashed tatties (mashed potatoes),

peas, and, of course, haggis.

Dessert is traditional Scottish trifle and short bread.

There will be several entertainers during the evening including the Williams Lake Pipe Band, as well as toasts, songs and the piping in of the haggis. A dance will follow with Perfect Match.

Tickets are available at the legion, however, there are only a few left.

“It’s always a sellout,” said Folland.

Burns was a Scottish poet and lyricist who continues to be celebrated worldwide for his work. He lived from 1759 to 1796.

Find a Church...

...Sponsored by the Williams Lake Minister’s Fellowship

Mr. Smith Why do Christians wear crosses or crucifixes (with the body of Christ on the cross)? It seems so negative, even brutal. We, perhaps, have been de-sensitized over the years. Why not wear electrical chairs as necklaces instead of the crosses? What would be the difference?

Perhaps a story may help us clarify the situation. A man had a dream. In the dream he saw everyone walking in the same direction, each carrying a cross.

Some people had small crosses, some heavy, some light, and some small. As the dream continued, the man saw some people complaining about their cross. Some people started to chisel and shave pieces of the wood off the cross to make it lighter. Others started to cut blocks off the crosses to make them lighter. And some people got rid of their crosses totally.As the dream continued, the ones who had gotten rid of their crosses, reached the end first. The end was a towering cliff which overlooked a huge canyon with a bottomless abyss. On the other side of the cliff was Heaven. No one knew how to get to the other side.

As time went on, more and more people crowded around the same cliff. Then, finally the last people with the heaviest crosses arrived.

Among them was Mr. Smith.

PARSONS PEN

BY Father Derrick Everyone knew Mr. Smith. He had cancer severely and had suffered much in his life. During the last three years of his life, even though he was practically bedridden, Mr. Smith never complained.

Everyone made room for Mr. Smith as he made his way to the edge of the cliff. They soon saw that he knew exactly what to do.

He flipped his cross down over the cliff and made a perfect bridge to Heaven. He walked across his cross, stepped into Heaven, and his cross vanished. He turned around, smiled and waved to everyone still standing on the other side of the canyon.

The crowd looked at each other.

Thinking alike, they realized they had cut out their own losses to the degree that they cut their own cross off. Immediately they started scrambling to find the lost remains of their cross.

The moral of the story: you need the full cross to get across.

Why not wear electrical chairs on our necklaces? Because electrical chairs do not indicate ultimate victory. The cross is our victory over sin, suffering, and ultimately death. Jesus Christ, who is God, shared in our humanity. He freely embraced the cross and brought us new life in his Resurrection from the dead three days later (Easter Sunday).

Jesus has allowed us to share in his works over sin and death, by allowing us to freely unite our crosses with his cross. Together we are victorious over sin and death.

This is a mystery that cannot be fully understood by the naked human mind alone. We need to trust in God’s loving providential plan for us.

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9)

LOCAL NEWS

Cow moose campaign brings back memories of old days Bruce MacLeod Special to Tribune/Advisor The recent article featuring the posters to protect the cow moose which was started by a letter Dan Simmons wrote to the editor about the poaching of cow moose by hunters, and the relation to the dwindling moose population, reminded me of when our family first came to the Cariboo in 1949, and settled at the Quesnel Station Hatchery situated on Horsefly Lake where the Provincial campground is now located.

There had been a serious burn in 1948.

The hills surrounding the hatchery had pretty well been burned off and were already starting to reforest itself with young growth which is perfect feed for moose to winter on.

In the morning

when we got up early to go to school, we could look up in the hills and see all these black moose standing out against the snow.

When I was about eight years old, right around Christmas time, I overheard my dad being angry about something, and I asked what was wrong.

He made one of his remarks that went way over my head in a brusque manner, and I got upset. I decided to run away from home, so armed with a six inch rubber knife Santa had put in my stocking, and wearing my new hat with the earflaps and rubber boots with insoles, and probably a new sweater and old jacket, I ventured out on the frozen Horsefly Lake thinking it would be a short cut to where ever I thought I was going. There was no real plan, so I changed

direction and climbed up Dillabough Bluff from the lake side.

Once at the top, I had a panoramic view of the hills surrounding the bluff.

The whole area was alive with moose. Fascinated, I set about counting them. This was made difficult, because they were constantly moving from one point to another.

I was up on the bluff for probably three or four hours and dusk was approaching before my father tracked me down and climbed

up and took me home.

I finally settled on 89 as the number of moose I counted that day. I say 89 although a couple of times I came up with 87, but 89s were in the majority, so for the sake of this narrative, 89 is the number.

This was 63 years ago, and times have sure changed. Moose are a matriarchal society; the bull comes and mating takes place during the rut, and from that point on, the cow takes care of herself and her new

born calf, for a year or more, teaching it how to take care of itself until she bears another calf the next year.

It stands to reason that to kill cow moose is to kill off the moose population.

By 1951, there were enough children from the Hatchery, and Gardner’s sawmill, and the Caswell families to justify a school bus run which was contracted by George and Louis Niquidet.

Angry moose curtails fishing season Continued From Page A13 The road ran through Jack and Owen Wynstra’s ranch, and there was a fairly sharp curve around a swampy area. Some time in March a cow moose and her calf were feeding in the swamp and the calf got highcentered between some willows. All attempts to rescue the calf were met with charges from poor old Momma moose.

Coming and going from school the driver had to speed up so the moose wouldn’t run into the bus. The calf eventually died, and the moose moved on.

In 1954, our fam-

ily was living in the town of Horsefly, having moved to the house now owned by the folks operating the Horsefly Service Station in 1953. My best friend Joe Thygasen and I rode our bikes to China Cabin corner and were fishing the creek for trout just up from the bridge that existed then when we heard a strange kind of cry coming from the willow thicket across the road.

The thicket was about 150 feet long and 50 feet wide.

We crossed the road and entered the willows. When we were about five feet into the thicket, we discovered a well beaten path about two feet wide.

Dillabough Bluff in 1951 near Horsefly was plentiful with moose. peeked back at the field where the moose was. She ran out of the willows at full speed; her hackles were raised in a black ridge from head to tail, and without a glance either right or left, continued up a trail leading off towards Gravel Creek at roughly 35 miles per hour. As soon as she was out of sight, Joe and I raced madly back to our bicycles, leaped aboard, and pedaled frantically back to town. That was the end of our fishing in that area for the year.

I have never hunted

moose. I made a remark once while riding in the jeep with my Dad about killing a moose, and my father, who had been overseas from 1941 to ’46 made a negative remark regarding the term “kill,” which has clouded my judgment regarding moose all my life. I think they are a magnificent animal, and I’m perfectly happy not to be a moose hunter, although I respect the right and desire of people who do. Of the many animals in the area, I respect the moose most of all.

came from our right, so we proceed along the path until we came upon the cutest little calf moose.

When he saw us, the hair on his back rose in a ridge, and he let out another cry. I was patting his back when the ground started vibrating under us, and we could hear some snapping branches. The cow!

Before we panicked completely, I noticed another trail about a foot through the willows running parallel to the one we were on. We dived through the wall of willows, and raced back opposite the direction the moose was coming. About three or four seconds or sooner we passed the cow going in the opposite direction. Adrenalin pumping, feet flying, we reached the end of the willows, and turned toward Beaver Valley Road, raced across the field, squeezed through the rustle fence, rolled into the ditch alongside the road, and

Dress red for Heart and Stroke month ~ January Specials ~ Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer

When Lyndsey Wilks sees red it’s a good thing.

That’s because the 34-year-old enjoys inspiring locals to Dress Red for the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

A relative newcomer to Williams Lake Wilks moved here last February from Merritt where she’s organized fundraising events for Heart and Stroke for three years in a row.

“We always had lots of fun there and I’m hoping that will

Lyndsey Wilks happen here too,” she said.

Within two weeks of starting to contact local businesses, nine have already signed up and because Val-

entine’s Day falls on a Saturday, Wilks and her team of judges will visit participating business on Friday, Feb. 13.

“I’ve also heard from a few businesses who don’t want to dress up in red, but are happy to fundraise. February is Heart and Stroke Month.”

Marking Heart and Stroke month has also had a great buy-in from the Seniors Village where an afternoon tea is planned for Wednesday, Feb. 11.

Residents and visitors will enjoy

tea time with heart healthy snacks, take some quizzes and sing some songs about healthy hearts.

“When I engaged the seniors in Merritt with events they had a lot of fun,” Wilks smiled.

When she was in Merritt, businesses helped raised $10,000 one year, an amount Wilks is hoping Williams Lake can match.

And you know, she’s already half way there thanks to a generous kickstart from the Williams Lake Truckers Association.

“I was telling one of my clients about Heart and Stroke, he left and returned 20 minutes later with a cheque for $5,000,” Wilks said.

“I just wanted to cry.”

Dress Red is about raising awareness, she added.

“We all have aunts, uncles, moms, dads or friends who have had heart attacks or diseases and strokes.”

For more information on how to participate call Wilks at 250-392-6565 or email her at Lyndsey. wilks@hubinternational.com.

Financial literacy an important life skill Kirsten Stark Special to Tribune/Advisor With roughly two thirds of adults in Canada living from pay cheque to pay cheque,

financial literacy training is in demand. Without these skills it means many people are not spending their money wisely, over spending and taking on too

much debt. When this happens it is easy to become stressed, even depressed and trapped by your current financial situation.

If this sounds familiar, why not invest a little time in learning how to manage your money better.

There are lots of financial literacy resources available, from games, quizzes and videos to budgeting apps for your hand held device. Here are links to some of the best resources that will help you on your finan-

cial literacy learning journey: It doesn’t matter if you are 8 or 80, a great website from Visa: http://www.practicalmoneyskills.ca/.

Bursaries honour late Cariboo ranchers The BC Cattlemen’s Association is pleased to continue to help students from rural areas further their education after graduation. The BCCA directors have long been involved in delivering a variety of bursaries to worthy students, and this year the total available is $18,000.

BCCA President, Lary Fossum said: “We are always impressed with the high quality of the applications and the students’ contribution to their communities. What a privilege to be able to announce two new awards that have been established by the ranching industry to recognize the volunteerism and historic contributions of the cattle industry to B.C.” Last year, the ranching community was saddened at the loss of their colleague and friend, rancher, Rob Starr from Miocene in the Cariboo. Family and friends have come together to support a bursary of $1,000 named for Rob to recognize his commitment to 4-H and the ranching industry as a volunteer in many areas.

Another new award has been announced by the establishment of the Bostock and Fallis Families of Monte Creek Heritage Fund.

This fund on deposit at the BC Interior Community Foundation will provide two, $2,000 bursaries on an

annual basis for students who come from the Interior of B.C. Also available are several other bursaries. Every year at the BCCA annual meeting, an auction of items and services generates funds to support six BCCA bursaries, and two Martin Riedemann bursaries – eight awards of $1,000 each are available to students who come from BCCA member fami-

lies.

Martin Riedemann, a rancher from Alkali Lake, was vice-president of BCCA when he died in an accident.

The award was named to honour his memory and has continued for forty years — during the last year, a special financial donation was received when an antique buggy from Alkali Lake Ranch was sold.

The Criterion Capi-

tal Group at RBC Dominion Securities has been sponsoring a bursary $1,000 through BCCA for several years, and the Gung Loy Jim Memorial Scholarships (two, $2,000) provided by the Jim Family of Little Fort Herefords are also continuing this year.

The BCCA Public Affairs and Education Committee will be reviewing the ap-

10:00 am 11:00 am 2:00 pm 7:00 pm

plications in early May; sixteen awards are available this year.

Application forms can be printed, or students can apply online at http://www.cattlemen. bc.ca/bursarygrant. htm.

Deadline for applications is April 15.

Watch for Ready, Set, Learn beginning next month at your local elementary school.

Ready, Set, Learn is an opportunity for preschoolers and their parent/caregiver to visit their future school for fun activities and tips on early learning. Starting in February, guest speakers will attend StrongStart Centres and playgroups to discuss early childhood development. For details contact the school, call 250-398-3839 or go to www.sd27.bc.ca.

The Williams Lake Powder Kings Snowmobile Club is hosting a meeting Wednesday, Jan. 28 at CJ’S Southwestern Grill to discuss club activities and happenings. The Powder Kings are looking for public input from any and all snowmobilers.

The meeting gets underway at 7 p.m.

Saturday, Jan. 31 Kangaroos host Stampeders in playoffs

Thomas Gustafson photo

Williams Lake’s Conley Pinette was in Lima, Peru, Jan. 8-15 representing Team Canada at the International Waterski and Wakeboard Federation Junior World Championships. Pinette, 15, in the 17-and-under division, finished 11th in the world as one of close to 100 competing athletes.

Pinette competes on world stage Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Soaring roughly two times the length of the Sam Ketcham Memorial Pool, Williams Lake’s Conley Pinette, 15, showcased his skills while representing Team Canada Jan. 8-15 in Lima, Peru, at the International Waterski and Wakeboard Federation World Junior Championships.

Pinette was one of five athletes from Canada to attend the championships, who combined to finish second overall in the team competition at the event.

Overall, in the individual portion at the worlds, Pinette placed 11th after participating in three events against athletes from 21 countries throughout the world.

Pinette placed ninth in tricks, 10th in jump and 28th in slalom. He said his jumping scores were the most impressive.

After the preliminary rounds, Pinette reached the finals in both trick and jump.

“That [jump] was probably my best,” he said. “I scored a personal best in my prelim at 162 feet (49.4 metres). Before that [my best] was 154 feet.”

The junior world championships, held on a private lake called Lake Bujana, are held every second year.

It was Pinette’s first time attending the competition.

“I was really happy in jump,” he said. “I skied really well in trick but didn’t get the score I was aiming for.”

But at just 15 years old,

Pinette will likely have another chance to attend the next junior world championships in 2017 in Chile — this time, however, as one of the older competitors.

“That could make a big difference,” he said.

Prior to the event Pinette travelled to Florida to train with Canadian coach Matt Rini, and was joined by teammates Dominique Allard of Quebec, Neilly Ross of Ontario, Paige Rini of Ontario and Geneva Roach of Alberta at the event.

He added a fundraising dinner and auction hosted

by Richard Kohlen at the Laughing Loon before leaving was a great help in supporting his trip. Close to 50 people attended.

“I very much appreciate it,” he said. “That was pretty cool.”

The Williams Lake Stampeders, after an 11-4 road win against the Lac La Hache Tomahawks last Saturday in its last regular season game, will begin playoffs Jan. 31 in Quesnel against the Quesnel Kangaroos.

The Stampeders finished first in the East Division and first in the Central Interior Hockey League with 15 wins and one loss, while the Kangaroos amassed an eight-win, seven-loss and oneovertime-loss record for second in the East.

The best-of-three series will finish in Williams Lake at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex with game two on Feb. 7 at 7:30 p.m. and with game three, if needed, on Feb. 8 at 1:30 p.m.

As zone championships approach, the Lake City Falcons senior girls basketball team picked up some much-needed wins during the weekend at the Pioneer/Panago Falcons Classic in Williams Lake.

Following two wins the Falcons finished second in the tournament after facing a tough Caledonia Secondary School squad from Terrace in a lopsided 67-12 final.

“We have had to travel a lot this season and have met some very strong teams outside of our zone,” said Falcons head coach Brigette Peel. “It was reassuring to come home and win meaningful games against teams in the north zone.

“This group of girls is very dedicated to improving the way we play basketball every weekend. We’ve worked extensively on creating a defensive identity that definitely helped us in our wins this weekend.”

Playing in front of their peers at the LCSS Williams Lake Campus on Friday, the Falcons swooped to a 68-60 victory over the Prince

Next, in a too-closefor-comfort affair on Saturday morning, the Falcons edged Fort St. James, 34-33, to land a berth in the tournament final, with Inderroop Randhawa picking up the player of the game nod.

Pioneer/Panago Classic all-stars for Williams Lake went to Laura and Randhawa,

The Falcons will now prepare to host the North Zone Championships coming up Feb. 19-21 with teams slated to compete from Fort St. John secondary, Dawson Creek secondary, Prince George secondary and Correlieu secondary of Quesnel.

“We hope to make a strong showing at zones this year and

beating another ‘AAA’ team in PGSS is a good start,” Peel said.

Final placings in the tournament were as follows: First: Caledonia Second: Lake City secondary Third: Cedars (Prince George) Fourth: Fort St. James Fifth: Kelly Road (Prince George) Sixth: Prince George secondary Seventh: Acwsalcta (Bella Coola)

LICENCE TO THRILL O N E

T-wolves take two in Penticton After two wins in Penticton during the weekend the Williams Lake Midget Female Timberwolves improved to 16 wins, three losses and three ties in its regular season.

The T-wolves shutout the Penticton Vees, 2-0, on Saturday, before edging them by a goal the next day, 4-3.

Cassie Hogman and Callissa Broomfield tallied for the lakecity Saturday, while Grace Outhouse, Shian Re-

menante, Faith Outhouse and Broomfield, with her second of the weekend, scored Sunday.

Williams Lake netminder Tamara William earned the shutout during game one, with Raylea Garland picking up the win in game two.

Head coach Pete Montana said it was great to get a good look and some ice time at the Penticton Memorial Arena — the

rink the majority of the provincial championships will be played at.

“The Memorial Arena is a great old barn in Penticton with so much rich hockey history,” Montana said.

“But, the ice surface is very odd. The bluelines are so close to the top of the faceoff circles in your offensive and defensive zones they’re almost touching.

“That means things happen in those zones

much faster with very little time to react.

There are a few other quirky things about it, too, so it was very good for our players to get some time there. Of course, we have some work to do first.”

The T-wolves hope to return to Penticton in March for provincials, but will have to get past the Prince George Female Cougars during playdowns, which start Feb. 13 in Williams Lake.

Al Campsall, after an impressive year in the sport, was notified he was selected during the weekend while competing at the Abbotsford Indoor 3D Shoot.

On top of winning provincial and national archery competitions, Campsall is a dedicated volunteer.

He currently coaches roughly 60 children in the B.C. Archery Association’s Junior Olympic Archery Program and coaches 15 women in a ladies only archery program.
