The B.C. government has adjusted its plan to give guide outfitters and their non-resident clients a greater share of big-game hunting permits, after protests from resident hunters around the province.

When the plan was announced in December, the government calculated that it represented a shift of 168 animals in limited-entry hunt areas from resident hunters to guide outfitters.

After listening to the protests, Forests Minister Steve Thomson announced Friday that is being adjusted to a shift of about 60 animals to guide outfitters.

The changes affect bull elk and either-sex elk permits on Vancouver Island, moose in the Thompson and Omineca regions, bison in the Peace region and bighorn sheep and grizzly bear in the Kootenays.

“I made slight revisions to the hunts for moose, bighorn sheep, grizzly bear, Roosevelt elk and bison to address the concerns I heard after the decision was released,” Thomson said.

When asked why there were no changes to permit allocations in the Cariboo Region, MLA Donna Barnett told the Tribune Thomson heard all concerns and asked his staff to do some more analysis.

Pigeon Avenue home destroyed by fire Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The Williams Lake volunteer fire dept., RCMP and BC Ambulance Service responded to a house fire at 925 Pigeon Avenue just after 1 p.m. Friday.

Homeowner Edgar Preeper, 83, was at home with his daughter Heather Preeper and granddaughter Katrina when the fire started.

Daughter-in-law Tiki Preeper was the first to arrive on the scene.

“I had just done a bank deposit for work when Heather called me and told me there was a fire at the house,” said Tiki as she watched the fire department working at the scene.

“We haven’t got a number but they are happening,” French told the Tribune.

“They are laying off trades that would

The union had anticipated the layoffs

and was informed Thursday they would be happening, French said.

Imperial Metals said the layoffs were necessary.

“It’s a lot of expense

to keep 300 people on staff,” said Steve Robertson, Imperial Metals vice-president of corporate affairs. “We did that for a while to keep everybody productively busy,

for resident hunters will drop from 67 to 65.

According to the Ministry of Forests, there are more than 102,000 resident hunters in the province; up from 82,000 only 10 years ago, and there are approximately 245 licensed guide outfitters in the province employing over 2,000 people.

“I look forward to working with the BC Wildlife Federation and Guide Outfitters Association of B.C. on ways we can all work more effectively together on wildlife management,” Thomson said Friday.

Hunting allocation remains unchanged in Cariboo Continued From Page A1 “The changes are made to the hunts that the BC Wildlife Federation expressed the most concern about,” Barnett said. “There were no concerns expressed about any of the wildlife allocations splits in the Cariboo.”

Barnett said one of the reasons changes were made in December was because previous allocations had rendered some guide outfitters’ businesses unviable.

“While there are still some slight reductions to resident hunters for the most the allocation splits are consistent

with historic harvest levels by both groups,” Barnett said. “I still support the hunters and the guide outfitters.”

There are 34 limitedentry hunts in the province that are divided between resident hunters and guide outfitters, who typically guide clients from the U.S.

and Europe. Resident hunters enter a regional lottery for the available opportunities.

In December the ministry confirmed that the changes for Region 5 in the Cariboo would result in some losses of hunting allocations going from resident hunters to guide-outfitters.

For 2015 the ministry

predicted the number of grizzly bear LEH authorizations for resident hunters will drop from 138 to 114, with 24 going to guide-outfitters.

For moose it will drop from 2,447 to 2,400, with 47 going to guide-outfitters and for mountain goat, the LEH authorizations

TALKING

Your Preschooler and… Talking Language development is a cornerstone for being ready to learn in school. Language is the main way that your child will communicate with the world around them, expressing their needs and wishes.

Generally, between the ages of three and five your child’s vocabulary will almost double to about 1,500 words. Around age three, a child can use four-tofive-word sentences beginning with words like “I” and “you”. Most three-year-olds will begin using “what”, “where” and “how” to ask many questions, and will know social words like “hello”, “please”, and “thank you”. The best way to support speech is simply to talk with your child and listen to them.

Most preschoolers have the language skills to be part of family and play groups. Take advantage of opportunities that arise in everyday living to talk with each other.

Try some of these with your preschooler: 1. Talk with your preschooler about the day’s activities or about plans for the following day. Discuss the day’s events at bedtime.

2. Point out names of things to your child as you ride in the car or walk to the store.

3. Listen carefully to your child. Show that you are interested in your child’s ideas and ask questions about what you hear from him or her.

4. Use rhymes to increase interest in language. Play rhyming games and read rhyming stories and poetry.

5. Sing songs. Make up simple songs about everyday activities like having lunch and sing them together with your child.

6. Have fun with tongue twisters. Help your child learn to say, “Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.”

7. Expand your child’s sentences. If your child says, “Daddy cook soup,” respond with, “Yes, Daddy is cooking vegetable soup for lunch.”

8. Ask your child to tell you a story about a picture he or she has drawn.

9. Talk about colours: “Look at that blue car”, “Are you going to wear your red dress?”

10. Play word and sound games: “How many words do you know that start with the same sound as your name?”

11. Make up stories together.

Contact your local school or 250-398-3839 for more information on this program for preschoolers & their parent/caregiver.

SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 27 (CARIBOO-CHILCOTIN)

Fee changes to ensure long-term water protection The provincial government is imposing a new fee and rental schedule to ensure B.C.’s water resources will be safely and effectively managed, states a press release.

The new rates will only recover the costs of implementing the new Water Sustainability Act (WSA) including, for the first time, groundwater regulation. Unlike surface water, groundwater use has not required

permission or payment of fees and rentals.

Regulating and charging for groundwater use will correct this imbalance and further government’s ability to sustainably manage water for future generations.

Users of groundwater will require a water licence and will be required to pay water fees and rentals. The exception is that individual household wells throughout the province

will not be licensed or charged.

Users of groundwater will also have the same access rights and responsibilities as individuals who obtain their water from surface sources.

This includes assurance their rights are considered should any conflict over water uses arise.

This is the first update to the water fee and rental structure since 2006.

Across Canada water rental rates vary considerably, for example, up to $70 per 1,000m3 in Quebec and more than $140 in Nova Scotia for some purposes. B.C.’s new rental rates range from two cents to $2.25 per 1,000m3 and will continue to be among the lowest in the country, taking effect in 2016 when the new WSA comes into force.

Highlights of the new rate structure include:

• Homeowners with wells will be exempt from licensing and fees.

• Households supplied by municipal water systems may pay $1 to $2 more per year for their water.

• Surface and groundwater users will pay the same fees.

• Other examples of the new rate structure include: • The water required to irrigate 40 acres of hay in Kamloops will increase annually from about $90 to $128.

• An Abbotsford farmer with 100 cows will see an annual licence fee change from $25 to $50.

• A Langley 10 acre nursery farm currently paying $44 annually will increase to approximately $62.

• Water bottling will be charged at the industrial rate of $2.25 per 1000m3 — the highest rental rate in the new

schedule.

Extensive public consultation, including with user groups, helped to determine the new rate structure. In March 2014, the Ministry of Environment released a discussion paper, Pricing B.C.’s Water, which generated more than 130 submissions and comments from the public and user groups. A consistent message from British Columbians was that water is undervalued.

The union representing workers at Taseko Ltd.’s Gibraltar Mine north of Williams Lake said the layoffs announced last month have resulted in a total of 22 unionized employees being laid off.

“It’s been up and down,” said Ken Lewins, president of Unifor Local 3018 that represents 550 hourly employees at the mine.

“At this point 17 people were laid off and five opted for lay-offs.”

When the lay-offs were announced at the mine on Jan. 19, the company said it was laying off 36 people, but

because there were 14 job postings, some people were able to move into those vacant positions, Lewins said.

Taseko Ltd.’s vicepresident Brian Battison confirmed last month the company was reducing its workforce by seven percent as a direct result of falling copper prices being at a five-and-a-half year low.

The company also laid off 21 management positions and about 20 contractors, Battison said.

EDC a good start

SIGNS OF SPRING?

hank heavens city council re-instated the Economic Development Commission.

By the look of things the commissioners will have their work cut out for them. Both Gibraltar and Mount Polley Mines have announced employee layoffs, and there is fear more will come. Both mines have been closed in the past and the world didn’t end, but there was always ranching, forestry, and government jobs to keep things humming along.

However, forestry isn’t what it once was.

And both provincial and federal governments have French cut many services Connection along with the Diana French people who provided them.

School closings have had an impact on employment and even the city is cutting jobs.

The city does have an ever-growing number of old folks, but speaking as one of that bunch, the rung we occupy on the economic ladder depends on our circumstances, like our wealth and health. While there may be plenty of jobs for anyone who wants to work, many of those jobs are part-time minimum wage, or short term.

Decent paying long-term jobs are the engines that keep the economy going and they are getting harder to come by.

The Cariboo hasn’t seen much in the way of diversification or innovation when it comes to using our resources, hopefully the EDC will be looking “out of the box” for answers. City councillors have been busy finding ways to keep taxes down, and there is nothing wrong with that, but there needs to be ways to keep the city’s current taxpayers thriving as well as attracting new ones.

Re-instating the EDC is a good start. *** In December, I asked Santa to bring snow for Christmas, but to make it the instant kind. Like we’d had earlier that month, that would disappear by Dec. 27.

He obviously listened. We’ve had two more bouts of snow followed by balmy weather that melts it. Any guesses how many of these pseudo springs we will have before the real thing comes along?

Unseasonably warm temperatures have prompted the return of a handful of geese to Scout Island and opened the waters of Williams Creek where it flows under Highway 20. Temperatures in the Cariboo were above normal throughout the weekend, while Kitimat in the northwest endured a record snowfall of about five-and-a-half feet of snow in a 24 hour period.

Our Viewpoint

Misplaced fears It was just about a year ago that B.C. had to deal with an outbreak of measles, with about 100 cases popping up in the Fraser Valley, and a few more scattered around the province.

This year, it’s Ontario’s turn.

Though it’s still a common disease in many areas of the Third World, the once common childhood ailment is rarely seen in Canada these days.

There is one reason for that: Vaccinations.

Complications from measles include ear or respiratory infections like pneumonia, and in extreme cases, brain inflammation, blindness and deafness or, rarely, death.

Measles accounted for 500,000 deaths worldwide in the year 2000. Mass immunizations have drastically reduced that figure.

By 2012, the number of measles deaths had been reduced by 80 per cent.

But the number of children that are being vaccinated is shrinking — many parents willing to risk their children’s health, and that of others, by refusing to have their kids vaccinated.

The Williams Lake Tribune is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry. The council considers complaints from the public about the conduct of member newspapers. Directors oversee the mediation of complaints, with input from both the newspaper and the complaint holder.

If talking with the editor or publisher does not resolve your complaint about coverage or story treatment, you may contact the B.C. Press Council. Your written concern, with documentation, should be sent within 45 days to B.C. Press Council, 201 Selby Street, Nanaimo, B.C., V9R 2R2. For information, phone 888-687-2213 or go to www.bc.presscouncil.org

More than 15 years ago, a British doctor, Andrew Wakefield, suggested the measles vaccine, long proven safe, might cause autism. His study has since been found not only inaccurate, but fraudulent.

Yet, with the help of the Internet, the scare has been perpetuated and more. Experts are concerned that people who refuse one vaccine may be spurning others, setting communities up for outbreaks of other dangerous diseases that are slower to propagate like diphtheria and whooping cough.

The typical course for common measles, especially with modern medicines, is relatively mild. But why put your child through even that, and put others at risk, for misplaced fear of a simple vaccination?

While we don’t advocate mandatory vaccination, we do advocate relying on the advice of doctors and other reliable sources rather than misplaced faith in the veracity of the Internet.

Remember, you don’t have to be an expert in anything to set up a website.

he Cariboo region is a vibrant and growing community with a resource-rich landscape full of much potential. Our Chamber of Commerce plays a vital role by helping our local economy grow and prosper by helping small businesses succeed.

Next week is Chamber of Commerce Week in B.C. — a time to celebrate the impact of local Chambers throughout our province.

Small businesses and the ChamMLA bers that represent Musings them make our communities betDonna Barnett ter. From creating family-supporting jobs to sponsoring local events, they improve our region’s economic and social health.

Last year the Williams Lake and District Chamber of Commerce won the top award at the annual meeting of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce. They won for providing a comprehensive range of services including promoting member businesses to the public, advocating for specific member interests and hosting hands-on seminars. As a result, the chamber remains a strong voice for business when important decisions are taken by government to grow and develop our local economy.

I personally have had the pleasure of working with the chamber and their members as they continue to advocate for business and economic development in our region. Consultation with communities, businesses and other key partners has spurred our government into action to continue to explore and expand new markets while removing barriers that prevent job creation.

As our government resumes the sitting of the Legislature this week in Victoria, one thing is clear to me -our government is going to keep working hard to reduce red tape that often inhibits job creation and economic growth.

I look forward to continuing to work with the businesses and the community throughout the year to continue to create more jobs and strengthen our economy.

Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

MORE VIEWPOINTS Words of advice on skating Question of the week Editor: As a young girl growing up in Alberta skating was a special recreation. Almost as soon as I walked, I had bob skates, little metal double blades, attached to my winter boots. Then the fun began.

My dad often took us skating to the arena in Calgary. He also created an outdoor skating rink at home.

I remember my brothers having long hours of hockey playing time and many a Christmas when our cousins, with us, skated the afternoon away before a yummy dinner was served.

It was every girl’s dream to own figure skates but one Christmas, at 12 years old, I received a beautiful pair of ordinary white blade skates. I do remember being a little disappointed.

However, those skates were used for a very long time. Moving to B.C. when I was 14 somehow skating did not happen as often.

Years later, in 100 Mile House, I started teaching my daughter how to skate and my son, too, as he became old enough.

We skated at the arena, on outdoor skating rinks and even up and down the Willow River in Wells, B.C., during a winter of little snow.

As the children grew older my husband made a little outdoor rink for them in our backyard.

Many a child skated on that rink especially at birthday parties for our January birthday girl.

One Christmas, this time in 100 Mile House, I had at last received a pair of white figure skates.

Years later I am still using these skates which were wonderful while I was younger.

On Dec. 22, 2014 I went skating at the arena in Williams Lake with my family.

I was very cautious as I hadn’t been skating for a few years.

Also, at my age (in my 70s) I have issues with mobility and

osteoarthritis.

As I became more confident I tried to skate to the music the way I once did.

I caught the right toe pick and down I went, breaking my right humerus and chipping the shoulder bone.

I am now on the mend from a very nasty break. Since then I have heard about two serious accidents involving figure skates.

So if, like me, you are older and not so limber anymore by all means have fun, even skate.

However, my advice is get those picks ground off or purchase a pair of ordinary blade skates.

In closing, I wish to thank Kelly and Leah for their kindness and expertise in getting me off the ice.

Also, many thanks to Denise Skarra for making her thoughtful phone call to our home the following day.

Global warming the biggest scam Editor: I am responding to the letter, Carbon fee and dividend offers a global warming solution by Keith McNeill.

Mr. McNeill’s solution to global warming would carry a lot more weight if there actually was global warming.

There has been no appreciable change in global temperature for the last 18-plus years.

Even the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been forced to change the label to Climate Change, since none of their models predicted the 18-year pause in temperature change.

The solar cycle is mostly responsible for climate change, yet, it is not factored into any of the IPCC analyses. Is that because you can’t get money from the sun?

The IPCC has stated the reason for all this climate hysteria is to redistribute wealth from developed nations to the developing world.

Global warming/climate

Letters aLways weLcome

change is a scam.

Unfortunately, governments in the developed world have fallen for the con and it’s high time they got off that fraudulent bandwagon.

Since some judge in the U.S. allowed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to label carbon dioxide (CO2) a pollutant, billions of dollars have been wasted to “reduce carbon footprints.”

School districts, municipalities, and hospitals have had to devote some of their scarce resources to “become carbon neutral.”

This is insanity. And you and I, the hapless taxpayers, are footing the bill.

CO2 levels have been rising — with nary a change in global temperature.

The science is not rock solid. You don’t hear opposing voices because they are being silenced.

Science shows CO2 levels follow temperature rise, not the other way around.

CO2 is essential to plant growth. It is a complete system

— we exhale carbon dioxide, the plants absorb it and give us oxygen in return.

Reduce drastically the CO2 levels and you affect crop yield.

It’s that simple.

Al Gore, the major player in this scam, stated that, by 2014, all Antarctic and Arctic ice would have vanished.

The fact is that ice in both polar regions has vastly increased. So much for settled science.

So, we reduce carbon dioxide levels, essential to plant growth, we spend trillions of dollars fighting a made-up threat, we reduce our standard of living, for what?

Mr. McNeill would implement a system of carbon tax and dividend that would essentially return to the people the tax money extorted from them.

I say we forget such a scheme in favour of keeping our money in the first place.

Rural revival vowed in throne speech

Friday Edition!

Papers need to be delivered by 5:00 pm

Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government presented a cautious preview of the coming year with its speech from the throne Tuesday, predicting a rural revival through industrial growth while lowering earlier aggressive expectations for mining and natural gas exports.

Read by Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon to begin the spring legislature session, the speech announced the formation of a rural advisory committee to “provide independent and impartial advice on helping rural B.C. increase opportunities, manage growth and meet its full potential in communities big and small.”

As the government continues to await investment decisions for liquefied natural gas facilities, the speech noted that LNG “could create 100,000 jobs and the revenues to eliminate our debt,” adding that exports are needed to maintain a gas industry that already employs 13,000

The speech referred to five new mines opening since 2011, but avoided mention of northeast coal mines that have closed due to low commodity prices that also threaten the continued operation of metal mines in B.C. Much of the speech touts earlier achievements, including the carbon tax on fuels and a settlement with B.C. public school teachers after a bitter strike last year.

The government confirmed it is about to table a third straight balanced budget on

Feb. 17, and hinted at new spending aimed at expanding the economy.

“This year in transportation, your government is working in partnership with Alberta and Saskatchewan through the New West Partnership to add capacity and resolve bottlenecks to strengthen our AsiaPacific gateway,” the speech said.

The government also plans to launch a new “medal of good citizenship” to recognize those who donate their time and money to improve their communities.

Stampede Dinner and Dance

Teachers learn life-saving skills Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Williams Lake and 100 Mile House Grade 10 students will learn how to use an Automated External Defibrillator now that six teachers in School District 27 have received training from BC Emergency Health Services to augment regular CPR training.

Last Friday four teachers from Lake City Secondary and two from Peter Skene Ogden (PSO) Secondary took an eight hour course at the Williams Lake Secondary campus with Laine Smith, an education officer with BC Emergency Health Services, BC Ambulance stationed in Prince George.

“It’s really important for students to have these skills because most cardiac arrest events occur in the home and it takes time for the ambulance to get there,” Smith said as the teachers practiced with the defibrillators. “We’ve learned that good CPR for good cardiac arrest management and timely AED are the most important thing for these patients.”

Smith has been a paramedic since 1987 and normally trains paramedics.

This is his fifth year doing the training with teachers and he loves how far reaching the training is because it then goes

“You know that old Faberge commercial where it starts out with two ladies and their picture and they told two friends and how eventually the whole screen was filled up, that’s what this is to me,” he said.

Things have changed when it comes to CPR and the most important part is learning how to do it effectively, he said.

In the old days people had to measure up the chest, now they are taught to put the hand between the chest.

“It’s not the big measurement it used to be, it’s not the forced

acting breaths, there’s no pulse check,” Smith explained. “If somebody isn’t breathing and they are not responding you start chest compressions.”

The teacher training has been made possible through the ACT Foundation and RBC and has resulted in the purchase of class sets of 30 Annie CPR dolls for each school that receives the training.

Williams Lake Secondary phys-ed teacher Denise Beauchamp said they’ve picked Grade 10 to be the target group.

Whether it gets taught to any other grades other than that,

all Grade 10s pass through the phys-ed department because it’s still a mandatory program.

“The program is being promoted so that kids can be more up-to-date with resuscitation,” Beauchamp said. “After today we’re certified to teach our kids.”

Teacher Chris Drouillard has taught at PSO for 22 years and said the idea of the CPR training is to give kids a real life experience.

“If someone does go down at an arena or an airport they will have an idea of how the defibrillators work,” he said.

Appreciative of how the method of CPR has become less technical, Drouillard said the challenge is to teach kids that compressions two inches or more are most effective.

“It is substantial energy your pushing into a person,” he said, adding the cracking and popping sounds people hear with the deep compressions can be scary, so people are trained to know what they can expect.

He already teaches first aid awareness, avalanche awareness, and cold water survival and said the new training will be another way to teach students about saving and protecting lives.

On Friday the teachers were given new CPR mannequins and teaching defibrillators for use in the classroom.

The 2015 Williams Lake Stampede Dinner, Auction and Dance is coming up on Saturday, Feb. 14 at the Elks Hall.

Godin and three other 100 Mile Area artists have a joint exhibit at the Station House Gallery entitled 4 from 100.

At the show’s opening Thursday, Godin said he came up with the idea for the show

about a year ago.

“When I saw their work I thought we all come out punching.

It’s not like we’re learning to draw a tree, we’re drawing a tree,” he chuckled.

The four artists are all part of an artist’s guild in 100 Mile House, although Heales said she is not heavily involved because of work and family commitments.

Heales said she was amazed at how well it had come together.

“All of our styles complimented and our colours worked together. I think we were all pretty surprised when we walked in here tonight.”

Before moving to 108 Mile, Heales and her family lived in Anahim Lake and Nemiah Valley where her husband was teaching.

Originally from the Fraser Valley, Heales went to art school, focusing on graphic design.

After taking a break from art while raising small children, she began painting acrylic landscapes five years ago.

“I’d always done highly realistic work, a lot of portraits, things like that,” Heales said.

Kruse also loves the Cariboo.

She her husband retired here from Summerland three years ago to have better access to fishing, camping, kayaking, skiing, snowshoeing and to get out of the Okanagan.

“Here we can get out in the sunshine and actually have winter around our house,” Kruse said. “We love it.”

In the summer she sketches and takes lots of photographs to inspire her to paint in the winter when she has more time.

Pointing to “A Winter Walk at 108,” depicting a hike around the 108 Lake on the trail, she recalled being fascinated by the shadows and the deciduous trees.

Her first oil painting ever, “Grace’s Garden “was all done with different sized palette knives, not a single brush stroke.

“That was done two summers ago and since then I’ve done more paintings with a palette knife only,” she said.

Her style tends to be quite tight, so she’s had fun exploring the difference, she smiled.

Crawshay said. “So when I retired nine years ago I picked up a paint brush, put down my chalk and started to paint.”

As a teacher she painted and taught art and drawing to children and said teaching’s very creative.

“This was my next creative outlet,” she smiled. “I paint quite a bit. I paint a lot of art cards to give to family and friends and donate to a lot of fundraisers.”

Godin said when people look at a piece of art, one of the questions they ask is what the artist is trying to communicate.

To paint a huge piece featuring a marmot that is part of the show, Godin said he went out in the fields when the marmots were emerging in the spring, made some notes, and then went home and painted.

“My best paintings are the ones I just start and finish,” he said. “I’m in the zone and communicating with something that seems to already be in my body.”

is a little vague and has a notchy engagement feel, but I did like the cue ball style shift leaver.

While official fuel economy numbers were not available, Jeep is expecting a combined fuel rating of about 8.1 L/100km, which would be excellent. The 4x4 versions of Renegade also feature a unique disconnecting rear axle feature that should provide fuel economy numbers that are close to the 4x2 versions.

Tek-Tonic is what Jeep designers dubbed the Renegade’s funky yet functional interior. The Wrangler theme is also evident inside and includes the requisite passenger grab handle. It’s a softer, more comfortable Jeep people place with practical features such as the fold-forward front-passenger seat and a removable, reversible and height-adjustable cargo floor panel.

Renegade is also tall folk friendly with oodles of headroom, so they could even wear a hat. A minor tall-roof drawback was noted, however, when I tried to reach for a distant sun visor above the upright windshield.

Jeep claims Renegade has up to 70 standard and available safety and security features. There are seven standard air bags, including a driver’s knee air bag. On top of that you can layer an impressive list of optional active safety features that includes Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking, Lane Departure Warning, Blind-spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path detection, ParkView and a Rear Backup Camera.

The all-new 2015 Jeep Renegade is in a word…how you say…Stupendo!

Not your average Corvette Stingray

By Zack Spencer

Nevada is nice this time of year, especially when it includes thundering around Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch in the all-new 650hp Corvette Z06.

For those that are not aware, the Z06 factory order code was a secret code available, on a word of mouth basis, back in 1963 for pure driving enthusiasts to get a faster and more capable race-ready car. The Z06 factory spec was resurrected in 2001 and has evolved ever since to now represent a separate line in the Corvette Stingray family. In fact the Z06 has separate badging and an entirely different look. To confuse things, there is even a more aggressive model or sub-model called the Z07 but it is sold as a Z06. Confusing I know.

Looks As great as it is getting to drive a potent, rear wheel drive rocket on the track, the chance to rub shoulders with the people who make the car is just as exciting. Tadge Juechter is the Chief Engineer of the new Corvette Stingray and he told me that the already capable, 450hp base Stingray was intentionally designed to handle the more powerful Z06 package but the look of the Z06 is different and functional. As Juechter explains, “you get the wider body work, you get the custom quarter air inlet duck with fifty percent more air flow.” He went on to say “that’s the main

‘‘

It is understood that a Z06 Corvette should be fast but this new model is also very precise and rewards even the average driver with a level of confidence and ability to go fast, that defies belief.

’’

secret with this car, you’ve got a lot of energy going in, how do you get that thermal energy out? So you’ve got bigger coolers everywhere, more flow, the aerodynamics are much more intense”. So all the parts that make the Z06 and Z07 more menacing, from the wider body to the additional spoilers and air intakes are functional.

Inside Along with getting to drive as fast as my skills would allow, there were also a few hours on the street getting to test the livability of the Z06. This was a big part of the design challenge. Juechter states “You can use them as daily drivers, you can use them as a long distance tourer, the seat comfort is good over long periods of time and you can also hammer it on the racetrack everyday.”

The new Z06 really is a

car without compromising comfort. The manual transmission is easy to shift, the clutch is light and the car is very easy to use, even in stop-and-go traffic.

The secret is the magnetic ride control that makes adjustments to the shocks to smooth out larger bumps.

The seats are supportive and the dash is futuristic. The previous buyers of the Z06 told Chevrolet that, yes they wanted a fast car but also the modern comforts, and this car has everything from navigation to a standard removable Targa top, even an available automatic transmission.

Drive It is understood that a Z06 Corvette should be fast but this new model is also very precise and rewards even the average driver with a level of confidence and ability to go fast, that defies belief. Juechter explains how this was achieved. “We use the technology, either in the tire construction, or the electronic differential, magnetic selective ride, it all comes together in the performance envelope but make it very accessible to normal driver’s, so people of average talent can go very fast”. And fast I went. Driving both the Z06 with a manual or the new 8-speed automatic is a jolt of adrenaline that should be bottled and sold. The howl from the 650hp 6.2L supercharged V8 is a sweet sound from inside the car and even more threatening outside the car. The traction is un-

canny and the cornering grip unshaken due to massive Michelin tires and race ready Michelin Cup tires on the Z07 trim. The brakes are very surefooted even lap after lap. What is fun is using the manual transmission with re-matching, letting the car automatically blip the throttle of downshifts.

Verdict The top dog is the Z07 package that includes ceramic brakes, the competition tires, more aerodynamic effects and a forty percent stiffer ride. This is the car to get if

you are a track rat or take part in weekend club events.

But with roughly eighty five percent of Corvette buyers driving exclusively on the road, the Z06 offers the perfect balance of on-road livability with the extra punch for a little fun, the styling is also a major plus.

The automatic is very quick on the track and opens up the Z06 to a new set of buyers but the 7-speed manual is so easy to live with, I’d stick with the stick.

The price isn’t cheap but it is a bargain in the supercar

world. Starting at $85,095 and topping out at $96,915 for the Z06, or an additional $8795 for the Z07 package. zack.spencer@drivewaybc. ca

Cariboo Amateur Hockey Association Playoffs

Stamps advance to CIHL final

The CAHA Tier 2 Playoffs are underway for the Williams Lake peewee, bantam, midget, midget female and bantam female rep teams. Saturday, Feb. 14, game three of the peewee series versus Prince George (if necessary) takes place from 8:45 to 11:15 a.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.

The bantam T-wolves play Feb. 15 (if required), also against Prince George, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the CMRC. In the midget division the Timberwolves play at the CMRC Feb. 14 from 4:15 to 7:15 p.m., then again on Sunday morning for game two from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Game three may be the same day or moved to the following weekend depending on the bantam game result. The midget female Timberwolves host Prince George Feb. 13 from 6:15 to 9:15 p.m., then play again Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. The bantam female Timberwolves’ playoffs start the following weekend, Feb. 20-22, at the CMRC. Game one goes 5:45 to 8:45 p.m., while game two starts at 1:15 p.m., with game three (if needed) going from 8 to 11 a.m. on Feb. 22.

Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The Williams Lake Stampeders advanced to the Central Interior Hockey League Final Sunday after a gruelling threegame series with the Quesnel Kangaroos.

Matt Lees deflected a shot from Nathan Zurak on a power play to score the series winner in a 6-5 overtime victory Sunday afternoon at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.

Game one went to the Kangaroos, 6-5, on Jan. 31, before the series shifted to Williams Lake.

Game two on Saturday in the lakecity also went to overtime — a 4-3 win with Dylan Richardson providing the heroics.

“It was a little closer than we’d liked it,” said Stampeders general manager Marko Zurak.

“But you’ve got to give them [Quesnel] credit. That was probably the best hockey they’ve played all year.”

Lees (2-0-2), Nathan (1-2-3), Travis Sanderson (1-0-1) and David Gore (2-0-2) provided scoring in Sunday’s contest for the Stampeders, while Curtis Gassoff (1-1-2), Ryan Hanes (20-2), Justin Fulton (1-0-1) and Joey MacDonald (1-0-1) tallied for the Kangaroos.

Stampeders captain Aaron Zurak noted nothing came easy in the series for either team.

“It was two hard, fast-paced games,” Aaron said. “Both teams came to play hockey and it was right down to the end.

Neither team really let up. Their goalie played awesome and the whole team played well. We didn’t get any easy goals and neither did they.”

Now, in the CIHL final, Williams Lake will square off with the Terrace River Kings, who dispatched the Smithers Steelheads, 5-4, on Sunday to advance in a close three-game series.

Williams Lake’s only loss in a 15-1 regular season came versus the River Kings.

“We had an off game but they’re a really good team,” Aaron said. “I’ve been saying this for a couple of years — they keep getting better and better and this year they’ve got a couple new guys who are really going to help them out and have a big impact. Their goalie’s (Patrick Leal) also one of the top in the league, so it’s not going to be easy to score.”

Game one of the series goes this Saturday in Terrace, before the series moves to Williams Lake for game two and, if necessary game three, on Feb. 2122.

Puck drop for game two in the lakecity goes at 7:30 p.m., before Sunday’s tilt begins at 1:30 p.m. if required.

Both teams came to play hockey and it was right down to the end. Neither team really let up.”

George, will allow us to celebrate the athletes and showcase our region’s northern story to the nation.”

The Lheidli T’enneh, the official First Nation host of the Games, will play a prominent role in the ceremony and B.C.’s own Dear Rouge and Prince George bands Bright City Heights and Black Spruce Bog will rock the CN Centre.

Other highlights will include the contemporary dance talents of Tristan Ghostkeeper and special appearances by high-ranking government officials, as well as notable Canada Games alumni.

“We want to harness the youthful energy of the athletes and celebrate the

northern story of the region,” said producer Patrick Roberge.

“Athletes, artists, performers and spectators alike all follow unique tracks to join us for the opening ceremony; together, we will celebrate their journey.”

Prince George Mayor Lyn Hall added he’s excited for the start of the Games.

“I would like to thank the Regional District of Fraser Fort George for presenting these Opening Ceremonies, which will be a fantastic highlight not only for the Games, but for a truly exceptional year in the City of Prince George,’’ Hall said.

“It is fitting that the event is being held at this loca-

tion during Prince George’s 100th Anniversary year. The CN Centre has been the site of so many memorable events and performances in the history of our city and, just next door, is the redesigned Kin 1 Arena, one of the many lasting legacies of these Games.

“I am truly excited to officially welcome the nation to Prince George and to show the country everything this great city and region have to offer.”

Tickets for the opening ceremony are available at the Ticketmaster Prince George box office in the CN Centre, or online at www.ticketmaster.ca, or by phone at 1-855-9855000.
