Williams Lake RCMP pursue Quesnel robbery suspects ANGIE MINDUS Williams Lake Tribune

For the second time in a year, police in Williams Lake were able to stop robbery suspects fleeing Quesnel.

This time the drama unfolded at the Chemo RV dealership in Quesnel at around 6:30 a.m.

Wednesday, with two suspects making off with items stolen from a trailer unit.

Staff Sgt. Del Byron said immediately following the robbery Williams Lake officers received a description of the suspect vehicle, an older model white Dodge diesel, and headed north on Highway 97 to intercept.

“Our officers became engaged with a suspect vehicle,” Byron said, adding the suspects sped off and eventually ended up in a residential area of the city.

As the matter is still being actively investigated, Byron said he would not release further details of the incident.

He noted, however, that police were able to recover the vehicle and have seized it for further investigation. Police also recovered the stolen items inside the truck.

The two suspects involved in the crime fled the scene and escaped into the Dairy Fields off of 12th Avenue North, however, police are continuing their efforts in the investigation and are asking anyone with information regarding the incident to contact the detachment at 250-3926211 or CrimeStoppers.

On March 28, a crime spree suspect fleeing Quesnel was taken down by police in dramatic fashion along Highway 97 near 11th Avenue.

That suspect was arrested and charged.

NEWS HEAT STRESS RISKS

WorkSafeBC warns of heat stress symptoms with rising temperatures With temperatures in the high twenties to low thirties forecasted to continue, WorkSafeBC is alerting employers and workers of the increased risk of developing symptoms of heat stress and heat stroke.

“Workers in the forestry, construction and transportation industries made up the majority of the 27 time-loss claims we had in B.C. last year,” WorkSafeBC’s Regional Prevention Manager, Prince George, Bruce Clarke said.

“But it’s important to keep in mind that anyone working outdoors is

potentially at risk.”

Heat stress occurs when your internal temperature increases faster than the body can cool itself.

Symptoms include excess sweating, dizziness and nausea.

If not addressed quickly, additional symptoms such as heat cramps, or potentially lethal heat stroke can rapidly develop.

Prevention of Heat Stress: • Drink plenty of water (one glass every 20 minutes); • Wear light-coloured, loose fitting clothing made of breathable fabric; • Take rest breaks in

a cool well ventilated area; • Allow your body to cool down before restarting your work; • Do the hardest physical work during the coolest part of the day; • Know your personal risk factors: medications, skin disorders, sleep deprivation, poor physical fitness, pre-existing medical conditions; • Know the signs and symptoms.

WorkSafeBC requires employers to conduct heat stress assessments.

As appropriate, employers must have a heat stress mitigation plan

Bob & Linda Zimmerman

and are required to provide personal protective equipment, education and training in recognizing the symptoms of heat stress and heat stroke.

Workers are required to participate in monitoring conditions

and checking co-workers for symptoms.

Employers and workers can go to: Preventing Heat Stress at Work or contact the WorkSafeBC Prevention Line with questions or concerns, 1-888-621-7233.

Consequences to actions S

o many things to consider – do we pay enough attention? Are we even aware of all the issues?

The environment and recycling are touted as being critical – how many times actions made are because we don’t consider or know the consequences of them.

Whether throwing garbage on roadways, sidewalks, waterways, etc.

I certainly never considered that flushable wipes could be a problem. They are great and so convenient.

Yet apparently they aren’t disintegrating, someone mentioned they are constipating our sewage systems, interesting to say the least. The list of disposables is growing, so if they aren’t disintegrating when flushed – what needs to be done?

Millions of dollars are being flushed but not the way we think –these wipes are causing serious issues in sewage systems, which we as taxpayers have to pay for at the end of the day, I understand it cost approximately $250 million per year so far, no doubt will become more if

Mary Glassford

GUEST VIEWS something isn’t done.

Someone somewhere needs to define exactly what is safe to flush, manufacturers, governments, exactly whom? Flushable wipes just happen to be an annual $6 billion dollar US industry, not small change, hey. To be on the safe side, if we don’t know it is safe to flush – then don’t do it.

One other problem is cooking oil and grease being flushed into sewage and septic systems. So these wipes partially disintegrate and adhere to the grease in the lines, this combination creates fatbergs, or a fat balls, back east one such fatberg weighed 15 tons and took municipal workers three weeks to clear. I read about one even bigger.

Personally I try very hard not to flush grease or the many other things that cause pollution in our water systems and aquafer and maybe

plug my septic system.

Plastic micro beads are normally found in face wash, shower gel and toothpaste.

I wasn’t even aware of micro beads, nor the fact they are apparently a global contaminant in the world’s most polluted oceans, yet these beads are now showing up in fresh water systems.

A study was done

by McGill University and the Quebec Government on a 320 km stretch of the St. Lawrence River.

They were amazed at what they found.

Samples collected rivalled those of the world’s most contaminated oceans.

These beads don’t disintegrate. Some cosmetic companies are pledging to phase

them out over the next three years now that they are aware of the issue. Perhaps it is time governments respond with legislation sooner rather than later to phase them out now, not three years from now. Illinois has become the first US State to ban micro beads in cosmetics.

A flush puts everything out of sight – out of mind – but should it be?

Public awareness is important, because if we don’t know, what we can do.

FUN! $1.00

BC Wildfire Service

Fire suppression help arrives TOM FLETCHER Black Press Firefighters and aircraft from Ontario arrived in B.C. Tuesday to help deal with the growing wildfire threat and more reinforcements are on their way from Australia.

Ontario sent 70 firefighters and specialists to Abbotsford and Cranbrook for deployment in the Coastal and Southeast fire centres, with two skimming aircraft, a “birddog” plane and an air attack officer arriving at the Kamloops Fire Centre.

Forests Minister Steve Thomson said he expects further help to arrive from Australia, with more personnel coming from New Zealand to assist fire crews in Alberta.

More assistance has been requested through the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre, which sent B.C. crews to Alaska, Alberta and Yukon earlier in the season.

The B.C. Wildfire Service recorded 23 new fires Monday, with 184 active fires in the province. As of Tuesday there were 40 homes under evacuation order and another 920 on alert.

Smoke advisories continued Tuesday for Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, the Sea to Sky corridor, with new advisories for south and eastern Vancouver Island from Campbell River to Victoria, including

the Port Alberni area where the Dog Mountain fire continued to grow.

The Hawaii Mars water bomber based at Sproat Lake was undergoing testing and crew training, expected to be ready for service by Thursday.

Dr. James Lu of Vancouver Coastal Health said air condi-

tions have improved in southwestern B.C., but smoke advisories remain in place. Very young, elderly and those with chronic lung and heart conditions or diabetes are advised to stay indoors and reduce physical activity, with air conditioning or filtering if available.

A province-wide

outdoor fire ban was extended to include the western strip of Vancouver Island known as the “fog zone” as the forecast of hot and dry weather continued.

Kurtis Isfeld of the BC Wildfire Service said he is expecting about 30 new fire starts a day for the “foreseeable future.”

Developing a conservation attitude

T

o paraphrase Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz … water and power and fire, oh my!

Unlike Dorothy’s fears of walking through the unknown — and creepy — forest, the fear of forest fires, of power outages and water shortages are only too real this summer for citizens across B.C. Hot dry weather, arriving about two weeks earlier than usual, has many districts raising a flag on water usage, B.C. Hydro expressing concern about power usage across the province and the Cariboo Fire Centre declaring a region-wide ban on campfires, a move that was also declared by Penticton and Kamloops.

Taken together, it all sounds a little bit apocalyptic. But we haven’t reached the end of times just yet – these are necessary precautions being taken by those in positions of authority.

Human-caused fires eat up resources that could be used fighting naturally-caused fires and air conditioners and fans add to the load on an already stressed electrical grid.

Each year global water consumption rises by two to three per cent, while the total supply of fresh water remains relatively constant.

So perhaps it is time to take notice of these times, when our systems are being pressed to the limit and wonder what it might be like in years to come, when severe restrictions are placed on power and water as a daily measure.

Sure, conserving a few drops of water here and there might not seem like a lot, but those drops add up fast. And developing a conservationist attitude now, both as individuals and as a community, is the path to ensuring there will be resources available for our grandchildren.

–BP

Learning self-first isn’t selfish I’ve developed a bad habit of putting other people’s needs ahead of my own.

Actually, I’ve had this habit my entire life, but lately it’s been getting worse.

I know. What mother doesn’t do that? The smart ones, that’s who.

There’s a great analogy about being in an emergency on an airplane and placing the oxygen mask on yourself first so you’re able to help those around you. It makes perfect sense. But do I typically help myself before others? Not usually. And I’m especially not doing it now.

I’m writing this article in the wee hours of the morning, not because I’ve woken up early or stayed up late, but because I didn’t go to bed at all. I’ve been pulling a lot of all-nighters recently and only getting three to five hours of sleep the rest of the time. That

Lori Welbourne

On A Brighter Note lack of sleep is catching up with me.

I’m more forgetful, less productive and absolutely exhausted. And when it comes time for column writing, I often feel empty, like I have nothing to offer.

“You need some me-time,” my 12-year-old daughter, Daisy said yesterday. I agree. I do.

For many months I’ve been putting myself on the back burner while concentrating on helping other people. I haven’t been taking care of myself physically or mentally, and nodding off at the computer

I’m going to make taking care of myself a top priority again.

Spending at least 10 minutes a day to write in a gratitude journal will be part of that plan. Every time I get into the daily routine of reminding myself of the things in life I’m thankful for, I become a more focused and positive thinker. And that mindset always helps me realize that I should be as loving and respectful to myself as I am with the people I cherish.

It also helps me understand that putting myself first isn’t selfish or bad like I grew up believing it was, it’s actually vital to the way I want to live the second half of my life.

By becoming stronger and healthier, I will have much more to give my family, my friends and the world in general.

while in an upright position has become a common occurrence.

This time last year I was doing far better. Despite being extremely busy, I still managed to hike daily, eat healthy and get plenty of sleep. I was also making time to do things I enjoyed.

I felt happier and more creative then; I want to feel like that again.

But with work, volunteering and family obligations, where do I find the time?

“Just do it Mom,” Daisy said.

“Go away for a day and only do things for yourself to get used to it. After that, put yourself on the schedule like you did before. We’ll all be fine.”

I knew she was right. I also knew my family would benefit if I followed her advice. We are far more effective at helping others when we are at our best, so

Editor: Thank you so much for bringing your passion to the 14th annual Quesnel Relay For Life held May 30 this year. Fourteen years is a phenomenal amount of time to stand committed to funding cancer prevention, research and support programs. Your efforts are impacting the cancer cause. Incidence rates are declining for many cancers and survival rates are on the rise. From a community perspective, Quesnel citizens have a ‘home away from home’ in the Kordyban Lodge and health promotion initiatives are creating tobacco bylaws to protect the health of all community members. This is good work. In order to make the greatest impact possible, you may look forward to some exciting changes for Relay 2016: a new venue, a six-hour event window and a music festival theme, whilst keeping the treasured ‘Celebrate Survivors and Remember Lost loved ones’ components of Relay. Your support is key to the success of Quesnel’s Relay – won’t you join us next year to blow the doors off this event. In the meantime, your suggestions are welcome and please don’t hesitate to contact Erin at ereynolds@bc.cancer.ca with your Relay ideas.

Helmet’s off to you Editor: Touche. Love the Friday, June 26 editorial cartoon under Opinions on p. A8. It uses the Conservative (?) attack ad that criticizes Justin Trudeau’s perceived lack of experience and gives ‘a taste of one’s own medicine’ in a humourous way.

Probably the best part is it clarifies Conservative policy moves that impact the middle and lower income majority – federal debt which jeopardizes health subsidies, destruction of gun registry records retroactively. One could have added forcing through controversial Bill C-51 limiting everyone’s civil rights. Thanks, IRICE. My helmet’s off to you.

Shakespeare comes to Sunset Theatre

After six weeks of rehearsal and to the fulfillment of years of hard-work and dreams, William Shakespeare’s Hamlet and the world premiere of Godhead by award-winning Canadian Playwright Michaela Jeffery, are opening July 10 – 11 at the Sunset Theatre in Wells B.C. The old adage necessity is the mother of invention certainly holds true in this inventive rendition of Hamlet

David MacKinnon in Hamlet.

starring Devin MacKinnon from the National Theatre School of Canada in Montreal. Interspersing film clips of the original Laurence Olivier version, the Sunset Theatre is melding multi-media elements to enhance the most famous of Shakespeare’s plays in an imaginative and ground-breaking way. It is a very exciting project. Everyday has been filled with delightful surprises and creative discoveries that keep the sometimes dense and wordy text of Shakespeare accessible and nimble. This is a version that will appeal to all ages. Although true to the original, the script has been modified for both stage and screen without losing its historical, literary or theatrical significance. The size of the theatre, the size of the town, the size of the cast and the remoteness have actually added to the creative process, not hindered it.

Godhead is directed by long time Barkerville favourite Tim Sutherland (Judge Begbie).

Set in rural Canada, Godhead is about a backwoods televangelist, a bull rider and a secret exorcism.

This explosively powerful new work marries the wild charisma of the iconic West with the visceral allure of contemporary fanatical evangelism as found in snake churches of the deep south.

The cast includes Andrew Hamilton, another Barkerville favourite, Michelle Lieffertz and Devin MacKinnon.

Rehearsing, mounting and running two plays in rep has its challenges.

Hamlet and Godhead run throughout the summer at the Sunset Theatre along with a healthy offering of music, variety and dance. Godhead opens on Friday July 10 and Hamlet opens July 11.

Tickets can be purchased in advance online at www.sunset-theatre.com or at the door – $15 for adults and $5 for youth 13 and under. Anyone coming to both shows will receive $5 off their second play ticket.

Local boy flying high For being just 15 years old, Jackson Nickolet has accomplished leaps and bounds in motocross racing. He started riding dirt bikes when he was only four years old and started racing when he was 11.

With help and support from many people, he now has reached National recognition. Jackson raced in the Western Canadian Amateur Nationals (WCAN) on July 2 – 4 in Lethbridge, Alberta. He placed second in the highest amateur classes in both 250cc (MX2 intermediate) and 450cc (MX1 intermediate) classes.

WCAN is a three-day race event where the competitors travel from all over Western Canada. There is one race for each class per day and the total points for all three days determines the overall champion.

In his MX2 races Jackson went second, seventh and second. In his MX1 races he went second, second, third. He led most of the final MX1 race and would have taken the championship with the win, but with a five-second lead and three laps left, Jackson went down over a double jump. He quickly got up and made up much of the lost time, but did not have enough to regain the lead.

He had to settle for second overall. It was tough to swallow when he had the championship in sight, but that’s racing.

Jackson would like to thank his parents, his grandparents and local businesses for their sponsorship.

You can come watch Jackson (nickname: The Jackhammer) and many other Quesnel riders race during Billy Barker Days at the Quesnel Motocross Track on Oval Road. The race is round 1 of 3 for the BC Provincial Championship. Practice is on Saturday, racing starts at 9 a.m. Sunday. Come watch the high-flying jumps, feel the excitement and cheer on your local riders. For more information, check out the Quesnel Motocross Association on Facebook.

TRAVEL

Liz-Ann Eyford photo

The lowly pedestrian I have the good fortune to know some Turks who love to travel and share their culture. Each trip has afforded new sights and delightful cultural differences. Snippets from Turkey are just a few of my observations from this amazing historical world that tries to blend modernity with tradition. ou’ve read about motorcycles, scooters, cars, busses and driving. Can you imagine why those topics came before this one? Yes, the pedestrian is a lowly being. As with driving, there are rules, well sort of rules.

There are crosswalks but…

In smaller towns, like in Quesnel, there is a lax attitude towards where you cross the street. Think safety, don’t unduly delay traffic, cross at your own peril and most Canadian drivers will defer to the pedestrian when able. The OWN peril is the key element to being a pedestrian in Turkey. The first rule is to never get in the way of a driver. Any kind of driver!

Anything with wheels takes precedence wherever you are. That means that the crosswalk is not a guaranteed safe place. Street lights indicate when a walker may cross but they don’t seem to really coordinate with the flow of traffic so most people will just wait for a break in stream and make their way to the central divider and then negotiate the next portion of road as able. I’ve watched mothers with toddlers and noted that their rapid reaction to speeding cars means the training begins early.

Horns might be a factor of your crossing experience.

Sidewalks are not guaranteed safe places either. There might be a bicycle or scooter zipping along the sidewalk. It is the duty of the pedestrian to get out of the way. There might be cars parked on the sidewalk that force the walker to take to the street to get by. There may be stacks of goods and wares that impede your way so watch out and give way to all that is around you. By extension, a mall parking lot provides a similar experience. If you walk so as to impede the traffic, you will be greeted with loud and persistent honks. The town of Golbasi is sprucing up its main street for the summer influx and most of the sidewalks have been dismantled. Small wooden plank bridges allow passage from the street to the stores but otherwise, there is little place to walk. For a time, the safest haven on my

Y

return trip from Bim, was along the tiled central divider. Though the cars were passing quickly by, I and another woman progressed for several blocks before finding a safe walking area on the side.

Add families, high school students, Friday mosque attendees and shop keepers to the mix and the road was very chaotic. The idea that seniors should be revered fades when it comes to the pedestrian.

Older walkers who do not cross with speed are often the target of impatient drivers and it seems that stray dogs crossing are allowed more latitude than seniors.

But whatever the situation, survival instincts take over so that pedestrians know that they are the only ones responsible for their safety.

The most demeaning episode of dodge the driver came in a little town on the Aegean coast. Typically, there was little traffic and much of it was horse and cart or tractor. But, walking along a narrow street one night I heard a buzz and thinking that it was a scooter, I had to get out of the way. Out of the way means you go on to the street or into a doorway. This time, I watched from a doorway as a boy of about five wobbled by in his mini motorized car. His path, not straight by any means, caused other walkers and several cats to move out of his way while his dad, laughing, supervised from behind. Close to that event is the time I had to dodge the floor cleaner in a super market. He seemed to be deliberately following me – get the tourist! Or, the time with the road sweepers that clean the parks every morning. My attempt to amble down the trail was thwarted by these noisy beasts.

Tips I have learnt: there is more but not guaranteed safety in numbers, never underestimate the speed of an approaching car, check to see if parked cars have drivers and might move unexpectedly and learn to be hyper aware of every vehicle around you. Walkers soon realize that sidewalks are rarely flat, rarely without obstacles and rarely at a consistent height above the road. Just remember that you, as a pedestrian, are the lowest lifeform in the scheme of Turkish life but with a little practice, you will move from frantic dash to controlled but cautious aggression as you make your way along the sidewalk or across a road.

Skyfest welcomes the P-51 Mustang Warbird ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter Aviation is about the aircraft and the people who fly them.

And many believe the aircraft created and perfected for action during the Second World War are truly the most romantic, high-flying airships in the sky. One of the most successful is the P-51 Mustang which is considered to be the best piston aircraft of the Second World War and became one of the world’s aviation elite.

Jack Erickson has devoted his life to establishing the Erickson Aircraft Collection in Madras, Oregon and the promotion of Second World War aircraft.

Together with his general manager Mike Oliver and mechanic and pilot as well as director of maintenance, Jim Martinelli, the Erickson Aircraft Collection makes regular appearances at air shows and flight programs.

At their Madras location they also offer the Soaring with the Warbirds, which allows the public to purchase rides in vintage aircraft and experience the thrill

and the history of a Second World War pilot. Another program gets photographers up close and personal with various aircraft, in the air, for spectacular pictures.

Skyfest 2015 welcomes the Warbird, the P-51 Mustang to this year’s lineup.

The P-51 Mustang is an American longrange, single-seat fighter and fighter bomber plane used during the Second World War, the Korean War and other conflicts.

In the Second World War American Mustangs destroyed 4,950 enemy aircraft making them the highest scoring US fighter in the Europe Theatre of Operations. They were used as divebombers, bomber escorts, ground-attackers, interceptors, for photo-recon missions,

trainers, transports (with a jump seat) and after the war high performance racers.

The Erickson Collection’s P-51D Mustang N-551D, was built under license to North America in 1944 by Australia’s Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation in Melbourne, Australia.

The aircraft participated in Atomic Bomb testing by the Australians after the Second World War and served 10 years as a target tow plane

MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS To the Graduates of Correlieu Secondary And McNaughton Centre

On behalf of the staff of the Quesnel School District, I offer congratulation to all the 2015 graduates. You have achieved an important milestone on your education journey. As you plan for your future I offer a few thoughts to consider: • Build on your strengths – do what excites you and what comes naturally.

• Be curious - this will lead you to adventure, new learning and help you adapt to change • Be engaged – work hard and make things happen in your work place, in your community or in the world • Be kind - people will remember not what you did but how you made them feel and most importantly….

• Be yourself – you get to define who you want to be and what success will be for you So remember you are a work in progress; you will get there a little at a time, not all at once.

I wish you success and happiness in all you do!

Thank you to your families and guardians for the encouragement and support they have provided; and to your teachers, much gratitude for their excellent instruction.

Sue-Ellen Miller Superintendent of Schools

Valedictory Address Sonny Cervienka

From Flower Pot Days to...

“The sky is the limit”

High School Graduation!

Greetings fellow graduates.

It is truly an honour to speak before you. Tonight I address you, as we all prepare to take the next step in our lives together. I am going to make this simple; tonight I am only going to talk about two things, just two points.

My first point is that nothing in life is handed to us. In the world beyond tonight, nobody is responsible for our success but ourselves.

If we want anything in life we must put ourselves out there and achieve it, because nobody will do it for us. As we cross the threshold of graduation, we assume more responsibility over our lives than ever before. Now is the time when any dreams we

have become plans, for if we are to achieve them we must act. There are seven billion people on this planet, and they are not going to wait up or make allowances for us.

Do not allow our dreams to stay dreams, instead put in the effort necessary to make them reality. This brings me to my second point, which is do not be afraid of making mistakes. We are stepping into a vast world with more opportunity and adventure than we have ever experienced before and we are going to make mistakes; nobody could possibly get everything right the first time. The key is not in how many times we get knocked down, however, but in how

quickly we get back up. Do not be afraid of failure and do not hold back for fear of making a mistake, for every failure is a chance to learn, and a chance to improve and better ourselves. After all, how can one know success without experiencing the feeling of failure? So get out there and achieve something meaningful to you. Let us put all we have into this pursuit as we alone can determine our future. Life will give us nothing for free, so earn your dreams, and when we make a mistake along the way, may we get right back up and succeed using what we have learned in the process.

- Sonny Cervienka

Begin, live, aspire, realize the best ideal of the moment and reach for the stars. Remember, destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

All our love always, Mom, Dad, Cody, Grandma, Ma & Pa

Tavis Roch

Principal Dennis Hawkins-Bogle message

Eagle Building Supplies Ltd. “YOUR DOWNTOWN BUILDING SUPPLIES CENTRE”

“Proud supporter of our community” 172 Reid St

Good evening families and friends, invited guests, chiefs, school district staff and trustees, and most importantly, the 2015 graduating class of Correlieu Secondary School and McNaughton Centre.

It certainly is my pleasure to address you this evening as your principal in the second to last event of your Kindergarten to grade 12 journey. First and foremost, congratulations graduates, for you have made it.

You made it through the doors as you entered your very first kindergarten classroom; you made it through your times tables, finding the lowest common denominator, sounding out words; you made it through quizzes and tests and the writing process; you made it through grade 6 immunizations and the science fair; you made it through the scientific method, rate, ratio and percent; you have made it through Correlieu, where you accumulated at least 80 credits; until finally, you made it to this evening, the second to last event of your K to 12 journey: Congratulations; for you have made it.

There are two important messages that I would like to impart upon you this evening. The first one has to do with your report card and the new curriculum, and the second has to do with facebook.

Next week we will have your final report card in the office. This will be the last time that teachers in the K to 12 system will collect evidence of your learning, assess it, make an evaluation and provide a report to you. It will also be the last time that teachers in the K to 12 system will judge your work habits and give you a rating of unsatisfactory, satisfactory or good.

From this day forward you will not receive another report card from us. In the last 13 years you have developed your thinking skills; you have learned to read and write; you have learned critical analysis, reason, judgement, and creativity. You have learned to compare, contrast, and juxtapose ideas; and you have learned to assess and evaluate arguments and points of view. And in the last 13 years you have learned a whole lot of facts, theories, and ideas about yourself, our community, our nation and our world.

From this day forward you will not receive another report card from us. From this day forward you will prepare your own report card. It is up to you to use what you have learned and the thinking processes you have developed to decide if something is right or wrong; it is up to you to decide if your achievement, growth and capacity to take on life’s challenges deserve an A, or a B, or a C, or a D, or an F. It is up to you to decide if your work ethic is excellent, good, satisfactory or unsatisfactory. You even get to decide the curriculum. Your curriculum, from this day forward, will be as unique and diverse as there are number of graduates in this class. You decide what you will do, where you will go, and who you will be with.

If you want to be successful at something it will only come from hard work. That reminds me of these three young people, recent Correlieu graduates, who were sailing a small boat across Dragon Lake. They were cruising along nicely until the wind direction changed. The pessimist complained bitterly and blamed other people, the optimist put on more sun screen, stretched out and waited for the wind to change, and the realist, well, she changed the position of the sails. This story teaches us that it is your work habits that will lead to success.

And now, about facebook, or snapchat or ask FM or whatever social media platform happens to be popular at the time, learn to put it down. Life is not meant to be lived in a virtual reality. Pictures and comments on facebook are not meant to replace real human to human contact and heart felt relationships. These tools may feed your ego but they do very little for your soul. I encourage you to feed your soul through authentic and meaningful relationships with people. It is through these relationships that you can share your dreams, your wishes, your aspirations, and ultimately yourselves. And it is through these relationships that you will fulfill your dreams, your wishes, your aspirations and ultimately, yourselves.

Life is a beautiful journey graduates and as you prepare to celebrate please be thoughtful and responsible. Take care of yourself and take care of each other.

Graduates of 2015, it has been my pleasure to have been your principal in the last year of your K to 12 journey. As you go forward work hard as you create your life; shoot for the stars, dream big, and go places. Know right from wrong; connect with people in real and meaningful ways. And most importantly, be truthful to yourself.

I wish to congratulate each and every one of you from Correlieu Secondary School and from McNaughton Centre for completing your K to 12 journey and I wish you all success and happiness as you set your sails on bigger and better things.
