First Nation’s chief found in breach of oath J.R. RARDON CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

We Wai Kai (Cape Mudge) First Nation Chief Ralph Dick has been found in breach of his

fiduciary duty after accepting a $12,000 share option from a business venture controlled by the band, an external investigation has found.

The investigation, by Ratcliff

& Company LLP of North Vancouver, was requested by We Wai Kai Council after a review of computer files of former band accountant Maurice Magowan.

The report was delivered anon-

ymously to the Mirror this week.

We Wai Kai Administrator Brian Kelly said council is planning to call a general membership meeting to share the findings of the report, but had not done so

Conservative signs targeted by vandals J.R. RARDON CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

In what Conservative party campaign managers see as a troubling trend, campaign posters for their federal election candidates in mid- and north Island ridings have been defaced, destroyed or taken, while those of their federal election counterparts remain untouched.

“I put up one of the signs at my house and they dumped it in Wood Creek,” said Jamie Wood of Campbell River, who organized a sign-placing drive for North IslandPowell River candidate Laura Smith along the Old Island Highway through Area D south of town. “I found out later it was happening in Nanaimo and all the way up the highway to Campbell River. Pretty well consistently the Conservatives’ signs are being slaughtered the whole way.”

A volunteer answering the phones at the Nanimo headquarters of Conservative candidate Mark MacDonald confirmed Wood’s claim.

“We’ve definitely had a large amount of signs defaced, spray-painted with profanities, broken or taken,” she said.

“We’re finding crews are just burning up their time repairing, replacing and picking up signs that have been damaged.”

Nob o dy has b een caught in the act, which can carry criminal penalties ranging from vandalism to mischief to theft.

And members of the Conservative campaigns have offered varying theories as to who might be behind it.

But they are agreed on one point.

“The NDP and Green signs right next to ours at the intersections aren’t being touched,” said Glen McPherson, MacDonald’s Nanaimo campaign manager. “It’s hard to believe it’s weather-related. Or that it’s a coincidence.”

In Campbell River, Wood allowed that one or two of the smaller

signs might have blown over in last weekend’s storm. But he said the damage began showing up almost immediately after Smith’s signs began going up a week earlier.

Particularly targeted are the larger, heavier signs, which have been cut out of their sturdy two-byfour frames.

“In some cases they took a knife and slashed them off,” said Wood.

“We secure those on there with screws and washers; they’re not blowing away.”

At the corner of South Island Highway and Jubilee Parkway, a support stands at the side of the road, with the screws still holding a strip of a Smith sign that was cut away.

Just around the corner at the same intersection, a sign touting Liberal candidate Peter Schwarzhoff stands untouched. Wood believes dirt-bikers who commonly ride near the beach may have caused some of the trouble. He

A large campaign sign of federal Conservative candidate Laura Smith lies in the grass of a yard alongside South Island Highway.

said several of the smaller signs that were flattened at the side of the road bore a single tread mark running over them.

“It’s criminal mischief and criminal theft if you take them and knock them down,” he said. “If it’s kids, they don’t want to mess up the rest of their life by getting a record for something like this.”

Section 325 of the Canada Elections Act states that, “No person shall prevent or impair the transmission to the public of an election advertising message without

the consent of a person with authority to authorize its transmission.”

McPherson promised there would be no retaliation against the other candidates’ signs, at least not from any volunteers

working from MacDonald’s office.

“I’ve put out the word to all the volunteers in our campaign, ‘Please don’t touch anyone’s signs,” he said. “And they wouldn’t, because they’re nice people.”

Wood said he’s seen this sort of activity in the past, and has noted that it usually flares up early in the campaign before settling down as the election draws closer. The federal election is scheduled for Oct. 19.

“Hopefully nobody’s gonna take down the other guys’ signs,” he said.

“Or any more of ours.”

with Kelly, who confirmed Magowan had been terminated in the summer of 2014, in part because of “his refusal to desist participating in the affairs of MPHLP.” The report says a We Wai Kai band member initially raised the potential conflict of interest. Following Magowan’s departure, We Wai Kai staff reviewed the hard drive of his computer and found a number of documents they considered questionable.

Kelly confirmed neither the option agreement nor the resolution authorizing the $12,000 payment to the numbered company were brought before band council, and that band administration was unaware of either transaction before gaining access to the hard drive.

In May, 2015 Rich interviewed Dick, who said he was unaware of the option until April 8, 2015, when he was provided a copy of the agreement by his son.

He did acknowledge signing the resolution authorizing the $12,000 payment, and further acknowledged the payment was to come to him, an admission that

9 TH AVE

Kelly said the $12,000 has “been recovered” from the Chief, and “that’s not an issue.”

The Chief could be sanctioned by the band, under its Election Code, through a petition signed by at least 60 members. But it is an unprecedented process for the Nation.

“There’s a process in there,” Kelly said. “We’re finding out what that policy is, but it doesn’t say what happens if you make a mistake, what to do about it.”

Chief Dick could not be reached for comment at press time.

In his written investigation report, John R. Rich wrote that one of the transactions discovered in the computer records involved an option for a numbered company, whose directors were the Chief ’s wife and son, to purchase partnership agreements in the band-controlled Middle Point Harbour Limited Partnership.

Another transaction was a payment of $12,000 to the same numbered company.

“These transactions appeared inconsistent with the usual business practices of MPHLP, and were not previously known to the We Wai Kai administration or council,” the report stated.

The $12,000 payment to the numbered company was then transferred to Chief Dick, who believed he was entitled to the $12,000 for services rendered to MPHLP. The We Wai Kai hold 51 per cent of the partnerships in the Middle Point Harbour Limited Partnership, with Pacific Rim Harbour Developments (Tommy and Derek Pallan)

owning the other 49 per cent. Chief Dick had been the We Wai Kai representative in the management of MPHLP when, in 2013, Magowan proposed there was an opportunity to acquire partnership units in MPHLP from Pacific Rim “that would lead to a profit.”

The Chief declined on the grounds it would be a conflict of interest, but suggested to Cowan that his son, Robbie Dick, might be interested in the opportunity.

Robbie and Lynne Dick, the Chief ’s wife, then formed a numbered company that entered into an option agreement to acquire partnership units in Pacific Rim. “At this point,” the report states, “the option has not been exercised and the numbered company has made no profits.”

But in February 2014, Chief Dick — acting as representative of the We Wai Kai — signed a resolution of partnership to pay $12,000 each to Pacific Rim and to the numbered company of which the directors were his wife and son.

Rich’s investigation included an interview

Letters n Re: Mike’s Musings, August 28 Mike Davies hits the mark when he states “We, as a society, don’t put nearly enough effort into funding programs and services – and creating public policy…”

His use of the Band-Aid analogy in describing the present approach is exactly right and is exactly the opposite of what is needed to solve the social problems that plague our society.

In April, the Campbell River City Council voted to endorse the establishment of a Social Policy Framework for the province.

Robron field: benefit or blunder?

The machines are tearing up the field, the new artificial turf is on order and soon Campbell River will have a centrally-located all-weather field for various organizations to book for use.

It seems everyone in town falls into one of two camps on the whole affair.

The first is that this endeavour is a waste of taxpayers’ money.

The $2.27-million project is seen by many as taking funds away from other, more urgently-needed projects, and that many people will see no benefit from the project.

The “Waste of Money” camp also cites the 2008 referendum – which shot down council’s plan to borrow $20 million for a variety of projects, one of which was the Robron field – as proof that the community doesn’t want this expense.

The other camp is the “Hooray for infrastructure improvements and investment in our children’s future!” group.

This group is the people who

It may appear that the winter rains are upon us. But, it’s not winter although it is almost the end of summer. All summer long we have been basking in the sunshine, heading to the campgrounds and onto the water.

Along with this blissfully sunny summer there comes a huge price tag. The province has spent countless millions on fighting fires, many of them humancaused. Not to forget the human cost through the loss of homes and animals. It is heart-breaking to hear the losses suffered by so many because of the actions of a few. No matter how many times you tell people to butt out safely, they don’t.

Perhaps now with the rains, the fires will die down and the firefighters will get some respite. The rains are something to be appreciated right now, and the sun will come out again give us a spectacular We say: Thankful and autumn. for the rain in the It is expected to be midst of drought rainy for the next while with some sun predicted.

We are thankful for the rain, the trees and plants seem to be drinking in the moisture and the creeks and waterways are seeing some relief from the summer-long drought.

And drought it has been. We hope this is not a sign of things to come, but some say it is. The last thing we want is to be in a position like California is now. We need to be mindful of our water usage whether it is raining or not. It seems we cannot count on the snow pack as we have in years past because this dry climate may become the norm rather than the rare. The wet coast isn’t so wet these days.

The weekend before school begins is supposed to be sunny with temperatures in the 20s.

It is usually a time when families go camping and traveling on the last long weekend of the summer. The campfire bans have been lifted in most areas, but caution is still required.

Let’s enjoy these days whether it is raining or not, because both sun and rain are needed. Be careful on the highways and bring everyone back safe.

of the main pillars of his platform during the most recent municipal election.

Coun. Larry Samson’s reelection platform was almost entirely advocating for more family-friendly activities and facilities, by my recollection.

Coun. Michele Babchuk pledged her support for the project if elected and won a seat on council in her first attempt – with the second most votes of any candidate for council.

Don’t we want our elected officials to do the things they say there were going to do when they asked us to vote for them?

I certainly do.

If we don’t like the decisions they make on how to spend our money, we tell them that by voting them out next time we get the chance.

For now I’ll wait and see how the new field works out before I rail against its installation, because the people we elected to govern us said it was something they were going to do before we did so.

Canadian values could be distant memory I’ll be 75-years-old this Christmas, and as long as I can remember, Canadians have been respected around the world.

I recall an air force friend of mine who was stationed in France some years ago, telling me how the Americans used to put little Canadian flags on their backpacks, because the Europeans held Canadians in such high esteem.

We have a history of trustworthiness and fair play, something we’ve been pretty proud of.

I have six grandchildren, and as I look forward to what kind of country we may be leaving to them, I’m concerned.

We don’t expect to always agree with what our leaders do, but we have always, or perhaps until recently, expected them to be guided by Canadian values, and practice Canadian standards of behaviour.

Homeless: solution must be grass roots Continued from Pg. 6

Briefly, a social policy framework is a tool that can be used to guide decision-making, set future directions, identify important connections and support the alignment of policy and practice. It’s a blue print to be followed to build a sharing community.

In the fall, the Union of British Columbia Municipalities convention subsequently endorsed a request for that same Social Policy Framework from the provincial government. To date the government has not acted on the recommendation of the mayors and councils of B.C. It is clear to me, and I assume to Mr. Davies, that pressure to have the provincial government formulate and adopt a social policy framework must come from the grass roots, from us. Campbell River and all communities deserve social policy that benefits all our citizens.

-T. L. Moist, Black Creek

Prime Minister Harper and his team, evidently hoping to gain an advantage from all their big money supporters and well stuffed ‘war chest’, pulled a fast one on the other parties, and dropped the writ earlier than usual... so much earlier, that it is predicted to cost us, (the Canadian taxpayers whose interests our government is supposed to protect), about $141 million dollars extra this time around.

We will evidently be paying, not just for the increased administration costs of the election, but millions more in election expenditure reimbursements to the parties.

Imagine what those millions could have done for needy Canadians.

I saw Prime Minister Harper and his team on the news the other night, climbing onto their big airplane, as

one of the other parties was shown leaving in a bus. It saddens me, and I couldn’t help but wonder if it’s possible for a party with such an obvious advantage in funding, to actually buy a federal election. It sure wouldn’t be very ‘Canadian’.

I guess in this modern world, some folks will be laughing and congratulating the Conservative planning committee for that ‘early writ drop move’.

It just makes me sad, and worried that by the next election or the one after that, Canadian values of honesty and fair play could be a distant memory.

As we sit down to our dinner tonight, these politicians, these people that we have trusted to keep our country strong, have already begun to dismantle our public healthcare system, and to use Bill C-51 to legalize unprec-

edented powers of intrusion and confinement, on the pretense of protecting us.

We might not notice because we might be busy, listening to the news about how a Conservative Senator (one of our trusted holders of the ‘power of sober second thought’ in our government), is on trial for ‘questionable’ financial activities and breech of trust.

It seems there is an issue as well, regarding an apparent attempt at a coverup by the right hand of our prime minister.

This is a crucial election for our country.

Our government has already begun abandoning its responsibility to adequately fund our public health in favour of a ‘healthcare for profit’ policy. Privatization of our hospitals and seniors’ care facilities is already well underway.

Adding in other cuts to the CBC, Canada Post,veterans, scientists, coast guard, environmental controls and Destination Canada etc., makes me wonder where all that money is going, and how much impact its loss has had on all of these crucial Canadian services.

Let’s go to the polls in greater numbers than ever before, and when we do, let’s remember that no country can stay strong if its government abandons responsibility for the health of its citizens, fails to protect us from theft and dishonesty from within its own ranks, and places our all important trust in our government at risk.

n Lightkeepers prove invaluable Re: Kristen’s Comment (Lightkeepers prove their worth) We were out on the water that day during a sail training course and listened to the distress call and ultimately about the rescue on channel 16. Lightkeepers proved invaluable over time. While from a navigational point of view an argument can be made that lightkeepers are no longer

needed, there is still much value in having lightkeepers on station.

There is a reason why light houses are where they are. Often these are challenging waters and pose a risk to mariners. Having search and rescue capacity at a light house station only makes sense. There is a great book about the light houses on our coast called “Keepers of the Light” by Donald Graham.

-Christof Marti

n Shame on the Coast Guard The fact that the lightkeeper had to swim in frigid waters ove r 3 0 0 m e t re s because the CCG continually takes away station boats that can be used for just this purpose.

What is wrong with our CCG buraucracy that they just cannot see the benefit that the Senate managed to relate so well in their

Report to Govt. in 2010.

What is wrong with these people! Congratualtions to the lightkeeper for his selfless deed in throwing himself in the water to save two souls just because it was the right thing to do.

Shame on the Victoria base of CCG. Get that boat back on station!

New footbridge built over Nunn’s Creek MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

While the hot, dry summer this year wasn’t great for many waterways, at least one group of volunteers found a way to make use of the weather to help them.

Members of the Nunn’s Creek Stewards, Greenways Land Trust, one retired Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) community advi-

sor, and a few random passersby came together recently to build a bridge over Nunn’s Creek while they could.

“We’d built a similar bridge further down the creek four or five years ago, and we’d always wanted to get back and do this one. We actually had planned to do it last year, but we were rained out,” said Barry Peters, the retired DFO member, who helped coordinate

the effort.

“Rain wasn’t a problem this year, obviously, until recently,” he laughed, “and we’d already gotten out in front of it.”

Over a period of three days, Peters said, the group of volunteers lowered the old bridge on the trail just off of McPhedran near 2nd Avenue, into the creek bed to use as a working platform, built the new span, and then removed the old

structure from below.

“It wasn’t in very good shape,” Peters said of the old bridge, “and our worry was that people would either get hurt using it or start to create their own makeshift bridges on their own,” which could cause environmental problems and safety hazards down the line. The bridge, while intended for hikers and students coming and going from school on

foot, was designed to take much more weight than necessary.

“We’d like for it to just be a footbridge,” Peters said, “but we have to deal with the reality of people on ATVs and horses wanting to use it, so we made it to be able to support that. Honestly, we’d rather have them using the bridge than crossing through the stream and damaging it.”

While the bridge

itself is complete, they now need to repair the approaches to it – with the help of some Carihi forestry students.

The eastern approach to the creek, especially, tends to flood and get very messy during periods of high water.

“They’ll be building an elevated walkway to the bridge that will allow the floodwaters to run underneath and preserve the surrounding eco-

system from additional damage,” Peters said.

“We really need to find some younger people to take up these causes. The people involved have great ideas and expertise, but eventually they just simply won’t be physically able to carry out projects like this.”

Weekend storm causes worst outage in Hydro’s history KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Hydro crews from around the province – including Campbell River – have been helping the Lower Mainland recover from the largest power outage ever recorded in BC Hydro’s history.

Ted Olynyk, spokesperson for BC Hydro, said two Hydro workers from Campbell River

assisted with assessing the damage and with some repair work wreaked on the south coast by last Saturday’s rain and wind storm.

“Usually they send the cre ws to us,” Olynyk said. “It was nice to help them for a change. It was the least we could do.”

BC Hydro estimates that 710,000 or 50 per cent of its 1.4 million

customers on Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland lost power due to Saturday’s windstorm which is believed to be the single largest outage event in BC Hydro’s history.

Olynyk said that at the peak of Saturday’s storm, 135 customers in the Campbell River area lost power.

“The Campbell River area was basically

spared the wrath of the storm,” Olynyk said.

But not everyone was as fortunate.

Much of the Lower Mainland and on the Island, the Victoria and Cowichan areas, felt the brunt of the storm which triggered 1,800 trouble calls related to the event.

That’s compared to the 2,000 trouble calls BC Hydro crews typically

respond to in the span of a month across the entire province.

As of 2 p.m. Tuesday afternoon, 3,500 Hydro customers, primarily in the Surrey and Coquitlam remained without power.

In addition to Campbell River, BC Hydro also called in personnel from Kamloops, Vernon, Prince George, Smithers, Terrace, Wil-

crews to bring in heavy equipment for repairs.

By the numbers n Peak number of customers without power-400,000 n Number of customers out after 24 hours-227,000 n Number of customers out after 72 hours-4,900 n Number of damaged circuits-25

liams Lake, Fort St. John, 100 Mile House, Courtenay, Nanaimo, Victoria, Port Alberni, Duncan and Qualicum to assist with the outages. Restoration efforts, however, were made all the more difficult due to the continuing rain and wind.

Hydro said saturated soil in certain areas has made it unsafe for

It may be that ‘child’ of yours is getting married or that you simply want to pass along some of the wealth you have worked so hard to accumulate during your lifetime. Either way, you want to help them buy a home. So, your first thought is to give your child money – perhaps tens of thousands of dollars – for the down payment on his or her new home. But there is a downside to giving your child cash for a down payment.

When your child marries, the assets brought to the marriage or acquired afterward usually become shareable – so if your son or daughter later separates from their spouse, the cash down payment you provided is included in the total valuation of the house, which becomes a shared asset.

through a promissory note that includes and loan agreement and security, usually in the form of a mortgage on the home.

In many cases, your child will not be expected to make payments against the loan during your lifetime, but the amount of the loan can then be offset against the amount to be inherited by that child. And as long as the loan is in place, you will have a much stronger argument that those funds must be repaid before any remaining equity in the home is divided between spouses (or commonlaw couples, in some jurisdictions).

It is vital that this type of arrangement is properly documented and signed by all parties to minimize the possibility of someone denying the existence of the loan at a later date. If your child is not making regular payments of

to ‘refresh’ the loan from time to time to ensure it does not become statutebarred (that is, when a lent sum cannot be recovered by a creditor through legal action because of a time limit imposed by federal or provincial limitations acts).

Be sure to speak to a lawyer to be sure the funds will be treated as a loan and everything is documented. And to be sure your ‘gift’ is in line with your financial and estate plans, also discuss it with your professional advisor.

The Silk Pajamas, who play the old jazz classics, will be at the Coachman Pub Sept. 20.

Kick back with the Silk Pajamas This is a group of seasoned performers who love to take their listeners back to the less complex days of great jazz standards.

Spiced with blues, country, latin and even some rock n roll, the

Silk Pajams are a mustsee.

Accomplished vocalist Ann Johnstone is backed up by Danny Bereza on electric guitar and Ian Parsons on valve trombone.Pick your favourite beverage,

sit back and remember where you were and what you were doing when that song was at the top of the charts.

Drop in to the Coachman between 1 and 4 p.m. on Sept. 20 to see the Silk Pajamas.

The Philosopher’s Cafe series is back for another season.

The series kicks off next Wednesday, Sept. 9 in the community room at Berwick by the Sea from 7 to 8 p.m.

The discussion will centre around multiculturalism and whether it has failed our country.

In 1971 Pierre Trudeau adopted multiculturalism as official policy.

From that point on, Canada would recognize and respect that its society included diversity in languages, customs, religions, and more. In 1982, multiculturalism was recognized in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Immigrants could become Canadians by integrating into our culture without abandoning their own.

This stood in contrast to American assimilation (the melting pot).

The vision of cultures from around the world living in harmony is a

Stewart Goodings will lead a discussion on multiculturalism at the next Philosopher’s Cafe session.

wonderful vision. But has the policy worked?

Is there harmony or is there increased isolation between Canadians?

Stewart Goodings’ early work led to the multiculturalism policy, and then as director general for the secretary of state department, he

guided the implementation of the policy.

More recently, he spent five years on the Board of MOSAIC, the immigrant settlement organization in Vancouver, so has followed the evolution of multiculturalism over 40 years.

Learn to drip, splatter, fling and smear The Campbell River Art Gallery invites the public to register for “Abstract Painting with Mary Deveau,” a painting workshop designed to free your mind and just have fun with paint.

“Abstract Painting with Mary Deveau” will run Wednesdays, Sept.

23, Sept. 30, Oct. 7 and Oct. 21 from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at the Campbell River Art Gallery studio.

Deveau says the class is simply about painting, which includes creative mark making, abstracting forms, colour theory and more. A series of exercises will encourage

painting intuitively, letting go of outcome and being open to change and surprise. Participants will be using techniques that will introduce spontaneity – like painting to music, dripping, splattering, flinging and smearing – all to free up the mind to make

at next week’s Philosopher’s Cafe and lead a discussion on the past and future of multiculturalism.

Mo d e r a t o r Pe t e r Schwarzhoff will then open the floor for what looks to be a very engaging topic for a lively discussion at Philosophers’ Cafe.

Once a month a speaker will introduce a theme to the Café, and then all who attend can join in respectful, nonpartisan conversation, or just sit back and listen.

Participants are welcome to propose topics and introduce them at future Cafés. Themes should be of broad interest and national significance, and have an element of controversy to them.

As with each Café, Goodings will have just 10 minutes to introduce the topic, and then the floor is open for 50 minutes of moderated discussion.

New resource soon to help non-profits

BC FERRY SCHEDULES

MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Thanks to their recent grant from Campbell River Community Foundations, Volunteer Campbell River is currently putting the finishing touches on a project they’ve been thinking about for a long time.

“What we’re doing is creating resource templates and samples,” says Louise Howes, executive director of Volunteer Campbell River.

Thanks to the $2,500 grant from Community Foundations, Volunteer Campbell River took their recent website redesign one step further in response to what they had been hearing from their membership.

“The survey that we did showed that many organizations think this kind of thing would be helpful,” Howes says, and they want to do whatever they can to make things easier for people, share their expertise in the nonprofit sector and streamline systems that can be complex at times for people without a background in it.

“Non-profits have change,” she says. “They have rotating boards, staff that comes and goes, and it seems a lot of the time, when someone new comes in, they have great ideas, but it’s almost like they’re reinventing the wheel over and over again.”

The resource library will contain things like job descriptions, codes of ethics, board position responsibilities, and other standard forms and documents that can be customized by individual organizations to fit their purposes, but have a standardized structure.

“It should save organizations time, help with board development, board policies, staff policies and hours – there’s so many different things we’re pulling together for them.”

One of the struggles with preparing such a database, Howes says, is just the nature of nonprofits themselves. “’Non-profits’ is such a huge compass – it’s so diverse. There are so many types of organizations and varying missions and visions,” she says, so to simplify the template for organizational structure is difficult.

“It’s hard to get a ‘best

practice’ in place. We need to look at what we’ve done, and what other organizations need, and for some things we need multiple examples of how things work,” she says.

“Non-profits go from everything from two volunteers running an organization to someone like the Canadian Cancer Society, who has a multi-million-dollar budget and lots of staff and volunteers.”

Howes is hoping

the resource database should be ready around the end of September or early in October, but their attention has been pulled away from the project temporarily as they prepared for their upcoming annual volunteer fair, which happens next weekend (Sept. 12) in Spirit Square.

“It’s for our member organizations to come network, build their networking stream, learn about other organizations and what they

It’s also an opportunity for the public to directly interact with different organizations they may be interested in volunteering with and find out a bit more about what they do and what

We have a great day planned for the participants and spectators alike. .

We expect many new entries… an incredible line up of antiques, hot rods, muscle cars, race cars, sports cars, exotics and motorcycles… definitely something for everyone.

Couple this with the participants who travel from far and wide to show there beautiful pieces of rolling art while experiencing our awesome scenery, and you have a weekend to remember.

We really want to encourage the younger crowd to participate, so a special “Young Guns” trophy will be awarded to an entry owned by someone under 30 years of age.

Our Saturday evening cruise is on again, but starts at 6:30pm this year.

See the details in this pullout. Set up your lawn chairs and watch the cars cruise by. Our participants love to cruise and it gives us a chance to show off our great city to our visitors.

Once again we had generous support from the local business community.

The Downtown BIA has organized a shopping tour for our participants.

Campbell River businesses also donate “door prizes” that are given

to participants. Room for parking all these neat machines is courtesy the City of Campbell River, for Shopper’s Row and Spirit Square, and Tyee Plaza for their parking area.

Our “Top Pick” trophies are award to the “picks” of the sponsors, our members, and we even have a “RCMP Pick”. We don’t judge… we just pick cars we see as special in one way or another. We appreciate every entrant and “Thank You” for participating.

north island cruisers show 'n' shine A Message from the President of the

campbell river 2015

North Island Cruisers Thank you to all participants, vendors, the visiting public and members of the North Island Cruisers for your support of our Annual Labour Day car show in Campbell River.

Our ‘Cruisers’ have organized this show for the last 23 years and the event has become a highlight of our year. The Car Show has grown to one of the largest on the Island and two years ago we added a Saturday night cruise through town. This year we drive back to the Discovery Mall A&W where we follow up with a street dance and live entertainment.

In 1992 the original 5 members incorporated a ‘not for profit society’ and these are the purposes of our society as defined in our Constitution: To promote and encourage the restoration, modification and upgrading of motor vehicles with a primary focus on vehicles thirty (30) years old or older, but also including sports cars, muscle cars, race cars, exotics and special interest vehicles.

To share knowledge of the members of the Society on the area of restoring, modifying and upgrading of motor vehicles.

To hold meetings and arrange for social events, competitions and rod runs for its members and others sharing the same interests.

To arrange for insurance, periodicals and publicity for the benefit of its members and to promote motor vehicle safety and courtesy and foster public understanding of its objectives.

As you can see we appeal to a large section of the public who are interested in many aspects of special interest autos. We meet on the first Tuesday of each month at the Seniors Centre in Campbell River Common mall at 7:00 PM. You might also find us at the A&W at Merecroft Mall most weekday mornings.

We also publish a Website (www.nicruisers.ca) where you can contact us and find out more about us.

You will not meet a finer group of people who are eager to help fellow members with their projects and their enjoyment of their special interest cars.

Enjoy the Show n Shine and our Saturday night cruise and join our North Island Cruisers – you will have fun!

Rick Johnson, President North Island Cruisers

NANAIMO BUCCANNERS Campbell River’s Valerie Doyon (front left on the right podium) and her Team Canada teammates took home bronze medals in the 18-21 kumite at the Pan-Am Karate Championships in Bolivia last weekend.

Karate kid bound for worlds Campbell River athlete nets bronze in tuneup for 2015 championships J.R. RARDON CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Campbell River’s Valerie Doyon added to her growing collection of hardware last weekend when she brought back a bronze medal from the Panamerican Karate Federation’s Junior and Cadet championships in Santa Cruz, Bolivia.

But she came out of the competition much more excited about qualifying to compete for Team Canada in the World Karate Championships in Jakarta, Indonesia, this November.

“I was No. 1 in points in Canada, but was waiting for after the PanAms to see how Hana (Furumoto-Deshaies) would do,” said Doyon,

of Campbell River’s Shito-Ryu Seiko-Kai Karate Club. “I’m still ahead, therefore I was the one selected to go to the world championships, which is very exciting.”

The PKF competition was Doyon’s first in the adult division after turning 18 this summer.

She already has a silver medal from the Canadian Nationals and a gold from the North America Cup in Las Vegas in the 17-year-old division on her resume this year, and won bronze with Canada’s U21 female kumite team last weekend.

She was an alternate on the four-member team with Camelie Boisvenue, Trysten Deveau and Furumoto-Deshaies, and did not actually fight.

“I was honoured to be selected, and I still had to be warmed up and ready to go into a fight,” Doyon said. “But I don’t feel like I put in as much effort as the other girls, so it’s kind of bittersweet.

“I would have loved to

have fought.”

After dropping its opening match against Chile, the U21 Canada team went on to defeat USA and Mexico to claim bronze — as well as the unofficial top spot among North American teams.

The gold medal was won by Venezuela, with Chile claiming silver.

In individual competi■ ■ ■ ■

tion, Doyon got only one fight in the U21 under61 kg class. After scoring the first point against Argentina’s Melina Martinez, a two-time veteran of the Pan American Games, Doyon finished the match in a 1-1 draw. Martinez was then awarded the win by a 3-2 in hantei, a judges’ decision.

“It was really unfortu-

nate; I was really mad,” Doyon said of the loss.

“I thought I was OK because I had more flags go to me, 6-2. I attacked more.”

C omp e t itors m ay return to the bracket after a loss through repêchage if their opponent advances into the medal round. But Martinez lost her next bout, ending Doyon’s chances to rejoin the competition.

The weight class drew 15 entrants, with Venezuela’s Oriana Rodriguez claiming the gold medal.

“Whenever it goes to a judges’ decision it’s not the best situation,” she said. “But I was just happy to be there.

I was probably one of the youngest, if not the youngest, people in the competition.”

It was the second consecutive trip for Doyon to the PKF Championships in South America.

She departs this week to study at the University of Ottawa and train for the world championships.

Mt. Washington cuts pass prices

Mo u n t Wa s h i n g ton Alpine Resort has announced lowered prices on the Alpine and Gold Season Pass products for the upcoming 2015-16 season. Skiers and riders can see savings as much as $300 over last year.

“We did an extensive review of all of our Season Pass products. By simplifying our lineup, we have been able to reduce our rates and increase benefits for our Pass Holders,” said Don Sharpe, Director of Business Operations at Mount Washington Alpine Resort. “With our new rate structure,

more people than ever can enjoy the excitement of the mountain.”

Families will also benefit from a new family discount program.

“Mount Washington’s foundation is families,” continues Sharpe.” That is why we have simplified the family discounts to offer greater value. On average alpine families will save hundreds over last year’s rates.”

In addition to lowered prices, the resort’s annual Early Bird Season Pass Sale is now on.

“We’re offering up to 36 per cent off regular season rates when you purchase your pass in

September,“ said Season Pass Coordinator, Maureen Thompson. “Don’t wait, the Early Bird sale ends at midnight, Sept.

30.”

Included in the Early Bird Sale is Mount Washington’s flagship product, the Gold Pass. This pass offers unlimited sevenday-a-week skiing/riding, night skiing, Nordic skiing, and snowshoeing. “The Gold Pass is the best value out there; your break-even is less than 10 visits,” Thompson adds. “It provides avid skiers with a sense of freedom, to come and go when they want, versus the sense of urgency

sometimes felt when skiing on a day ticket.

New this year, we have entered into a reciprocal partnership with Revelstoke Mountain, Apex, Manning Park, and Mt. Seymour, to provide our Gold Season Pass Holders with two free lift tickets at each resort – it’s huge value.”

And the 100-day Winter Guarantee returns for the 2015-16 winter season. This program provides Season Pass Holders at Mount Washington a guaranteed 100-day season. If not, the resort credits Pass Holders towards a pass for the following year. “It

provides our Pass Holders with peace of mind in their purchase,” said Thompson.

Season Passes can be purchased during the September Island-wide road shows, on- mountain, or online at www. mountwashington.ca.

Rediscover the joy of mud SPIN MY

RIDE James Durand

After such an amazing Summer I have to admit that a weekend of rain, as much as we needed it, was not welcomed by me.

I was on Hornby Island and really looking forward to riding some smooth dry trails. Dry wasn’t an option though, as it rained pretty hard over the weekend. Part of me wanted to hide out in the trailer, eat junk food and avoid the mud, but I don’t get to ride new trails very often so I headed out and made the best of it for two days.

I actually ended up having a couple awesome rides. The trails had hardly any water on them and the canopy of trees managed to keep me fairly dry. As the weekend came to a close, there were signs of sunshine to the North and we headed toward home and the Monday night Swicked ride.

After dealing with packing up the camp site, managing a fouryear-old who hates the end of holidays and waiting in multiple ferry line ups, I made

it home just in time for the group ride. I quickly got dressed in whatever clean bike clothes I could find and pedalled down my driveway.

That’s when the skies opened up and tried to drown me. So much for

sunshine. Sadly, I was not prepared for this weather and short of an old torn rain jacket, all my wet weather gear was in my washing machine.

So I squinted into the rain and tried to avoid the biggest puddles on my way to meet the group. I was covered in mud and felt like I was wearing a wet diaper, but surprisingly happy about it all. Its been so long since I rode in the mud I think I forgot how much fun it can be. By the end of the night the 15 riders with me had mud covered faces, dirty bikes and big smiles. It was a tough start to the night, but once we were all a little muddy, it was

Carmageddon back on track

Saratoga Speedway suffered another rainout last Saturday, but the action returns this weekend — rain or shine — with the first-ever school bus races to mark back-to-school weekend.

Saturday’s show begins at 7 p.m. and features the second Carmageddon stunt show of the season.

Also on the card are the Crash to Pass, Road Runners, Bomber cars, Hornet Cars and Figure 8 racers.

Gates open at 5:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults, $12 for students with I.D. and $5 for children. More info at www.saratogaracing.ca.

just another great ride.

No matter how fun it was in the mud, I am still hoping for another month or two of dry, warm weather. But, it was a nice reminder that winter on the west coast is pretty mild and with the right gear, a tiny bit of prep and a helmet light, when most of the country is snowed in, we get to ride our mountain bikes all winter long.

So rather than hanging your bike on the hook in the garage when the rains come, why not join a bunch of other wing nuts and come out for the Monday night group ride, its lots of fun!

From August 21 to the 31 there has been plenty of action in the Campbell River Tyee Pool but the king or queen of the biggest spring in 2015 has yet to be crowned.

With the rain we had at the beginning of the week and when the weather clears, expect the fishing action to heat up. If you drive to the end of the spit there is lots of parking and there are many oceanside places to sit on Angler and rower in the Campbell Riv er Tyee Pool the shore to watch the viewed through the camera len s of Skip Sponek boats coming and going along the stretch of water in front of the clubhouse.

Both fish caught were brought in between 7:30 and 8 p.m.

The next day saw Sally Rickert come in with a 32 pound Tyee with rower R.D. Berger.

At 6 a.m. on August 23, Bill Tomicki got a 37.5 Tyee with rower Ross Spiers.

Angler Rick Gunn got his 31 pound Tyee on August 25 with rower Peter Winter using a plug.

Ginny Harrington got to the Tyee scale on August 28 with a 34 pound Tyee using a plug and rowed by Randy Killoran who has been the Go To Guy for catching a Tyee.

At any given moment, but especially during the evening hours, up to 60 boats can be seen fishing the pool.

Corvalis, Oregon had the fish of the year in Campbell River with a Tyee of 71 pounds.

In the early morning hours and late evening hours, anglers have taken their boats out and the bell has rang six times at the clubhouse, with a total of 10 Tyees being registered this year.

On August 21, two Tyee were caught and both were 31.5 pounds, caught by James Newman rowed by Rick Janzen and Jules Lacroix, who rowed by himself.

MORTGAGES

Now is the Time?

Volatility in the bond market is pushing fixed term rates higher. Adjustable rate mortgages are a great option as the Bank of Canada doesn’t seem inclined to move the overnight rate anytime soon. Now is a great time to buy or remortgage.

The bonus room is really just a bedroom without a closet so the option for a 3rd bedroom is yours.

Located approximately 10-12 minutes from Willow Point with loads of RV parking and a massive 12x24 deck in the backyard. Quick possession available and open to offers.

MIKE DAVIES

I

t all began in 2007.

A group of friends, sitting around having lunch at the Quadra Island Community Centre, were talking about the services offered on their little island – or lack thereof.

That was the informal start of the Quadra Circle Community Connections Society.

“Yeah, it’s quite a mouthful,” laughs Maureen McDowell, president of the society – as I fumble their name while asking about their organization as we sit in the group’s small office located between the bookstore and the library in Quathiaski Cove. “Just call us Quadra Circle.”

Quadra Circle began with small meetings in their members’ own homes – as a sub-committee of the Quadra Island Recreation Society – but they soon realized they needed more visibility within the community in order to broaden their reach and decided to become their own registered society, which happened last year.

“I guess what drew us together was the wish to have services (on Quadra) rather than be forced to go to a larger community,” says McDowell.

“It was going not too badly, but as we got busier and developed more services, we also felt it would be better to have a bit more of a physical presence. We

3x1.5

wanted to be a resource and information place for people to drop into and get their questions answered.”

Thanks to a New Horizons grant from Island Health through the Strathcona Regional District, they found the funds to move into their current space in Quathiaski Cove.

Their overarching goal is to increase the quality of life for those in the community. But with approximately onequarter of the approximately 2,400 residents qualifying as “senior,” and those members of MIKE DAVIES/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR the community natu- Thanks to a New Horizons grant last year, the rally needing a bit of Quadra Circle Community Connections Sociextra support, seniors ety was able to move into an office in Quathitend to garner the most aski Cove. attention from the orga“Some of our seniors Gair, director and treanization.

volunteers like Gair, McDowell and outreach worker Marie Sheran, the organization has been able to secure various grants to keep them afloat, but are hoping to one day be able to employ an actual paid coordinator.

“There are eight directors on the board and we all kind of take our own little area that we’re interested in, but it would be nice to find the money to have a fulltime person,” Gair says.

“We’re all getting to the stage where we can’t do it full time. It would be nice to have someone on full-time and carry on (these initiatives), and for all the work we’ve done to be able to continue.

“But so far we’ve been able to scrape by and keep going,” she says.

And they have numerous initiatives and programs in the planning stages that are what would be classified as “long-term,” so don’t expect them to give up on that anytime soon.

“We’ve calculated that we’ve probably done about $194,000 worth of volunteer hours this year,” McDowell says.

“We’re proud of that, because it shows how many people are willing to pitch in,” says Gair.

“We enjoy it. It’s nice to be doing something you enjoy. I feel sorry for people that are stuck in jobs that they don’t enjoy.”

A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis.

Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells� are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet sounds are no longer naturally

ho are we?

This fundamental question about human nature has puzzled many thinkers for many centuries — probably yielding as many opinions as thinkers. We certainly expect to find a range of individual differences within the human community.

But the question pertains to our collective behaviour.

Who are we as a species? We can make generalized descriptive statements about the character of bears, salmon, ants, eagles and deer.

But what is humanity’s collective character? The answer has huge implications for understanding virtually everything we have done, are doing and may do.

An interesting insight is provided by Yuval Noah Harari, a professor of macro-history and the author of Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind.

Since his specialty is broad historical ques-

Having so recently been one of the underdogs of the savannah, we are full of fears and anxieties over our position, which makes us doubly cruel and dangerous.

Many historical calamities, from deadly wars to ecological catastrophes, have resulted from this over-hasty jump.”

Does Harari answer the question of who we are?

He certainly provides an interesting insight.

For all our apparent

Quest breaking through dead ends Long weekend prompts A the box and following avenues of investigation not previously pursued.

Normally, the team unveils its results at the June meeting, but this year unforeseen circumstances postponed the reveal until September.

It is an event not to be missed. The Quest Team took on my brick wall a couple of years ago, and what they found blew me away. They opened a door that took me all the way back to the seventeenth century, and put me in touch with family in England and Australia. How cool is that?

So, if you’ve been thinking you might like to try tracing your family’s roots, but you don’t know how to go about it, join us for an evening of fun and enlightenment to see if genealogy is for you. (It’s always entertaining to poke through someone else’s closet.)

weekends pose a higher risk for serious crashes so, on behalf of police officers everywhere, I ask drivers to focus on simple actions that make everyone safer on the road,” said chief constable Neil Dubord, chair of the B.C. Association of Police Traffic Safety Committee in the release. “This long weekend, I urge you to become a driving role model by making a commitment to your family and friends to buckle up, slow down, leave your phone alone, and drive sober. For those who continue to take unnecessary driving risks, police will be out in force.”

As many people get ready to go on road trips and camping trips this Labour Day long weekend, the B.C. government is encouraging everyone to be road smart on their journeys.

The Labour Day weekend is one of the busiest travel weekends of the year, according to a recent government release. Drivers are encouraged to stay alert, pay attention to the increased traffic levels, use caution and always drive to the road conditions, which can change quickly.

This is also the peak of highway construction season, the release says, and while most construction activities are put on hold for the long weekend, safety in work zones depends on drivers being alert and following the directions, road signs and workers who may be present.

ere on the West Coast we tend to be complacent about the wide selection of wines available to us from California.

And while there’s no shortage of white wines, the variety of rich red wines – from what would be the world’s fourth largest producer, if it were a separate country – is astonishing.

In France there is a long tradition of négociants – wineries who have few if any of their own vineyards but acquire grapes or even partially finished wines from independent growers, as well as commercial wineries.

Sebastiani & Sons have evolved into one of California’s most dependable négociants.

Pepperwood Grove Old Vine Zinfandel (406132) $11.55 comes from Don Sebastiani &

100 per cent varietal wine.

Blackstone Winemaker’s Select Merlot (103242) $14.20 is a mouth filling blend of 82 per cent merlot, four per cent petite sirah, 10 per cent syrah, two per cent cabernet sauvignon, one per cent cabernet franc and one per cent rubired – a hybrid of Portugal’s tinta cão and alicante ganzin.

This exceptionally complex merlot oozes rich blackberry, plum, and raspberry flavours over vanilla and toast and truffles.

Genetically identical to Croatia’s crljenak kaštelanski and tribidrag, as well as primitivo grown in Italy’s Apulia, red zinfandel wines have been taken to new heights in California.

The Association of Zinfandel Advocates & Producers was founded in 1991 to promote

American zinfandel and its unique place in California’s culture and history.

Zinphomania is tongue-in-cheek-ishly defined as an excessive and uncontrollable desire for zinfandel brought on by the titillating aromas and decadent flavours of big red zins. Zin-phomaniac (925958) $23.25 is a seductive blend of 95 per cent lodi zinfandel and five per cent mendocino Syrah.

Jammy strawberry, raspberry, blackberry and black cherry aromas and flavours slide into spicy tea and black pepper in the finish.

Every year some of California’s best-known wineries drain their tanks to bring in grapes from the newest vintage.

disclosure agreement to protect the integrity of their brands) Cameron Hughes brings wines of exceptional quality to the market at astonishingly affordable prices.

Cameron Hughes Lot 304 Napa Valley Meritage (3335) $24.30 California Lot 304 Napa Valley Meritage is a blend of 64 per cent cabernet franc, 23 per cent merlot, nine per cent cabernet sauvignon and four per cent petite verdot.

The main grapes come from an unnamed winery in the Napa Valley that specializes in cabernet franc.

More elegant than jammy, it showcases the peppery spiced blackberry character of that variety with classic Napa Valley hints of mint and eucalyptus.

Bringing a variety of different wine grapes together from an assortment of regions almost guarantees a

richer and more complex red wine.

Obviously, California`s best winemakers have realized just that.

Blended from 91 per cent cabernet sauvignon five per cent merlot, two per cent malbec, one per cent cabernet franc and one per cent petit verdot, Black Stallion Cabernet Sauvignon (583617) $36.90 is made from a combination of grapes primarily from the Napa Valley with contributions from vineyards in the Oak Knoll district, St.Helena, Rutherford and Mt.Veeder.

Outrageously concentrated flavours of black cherry, blackberry, spice and French and American oak segue into cappuccino and caramel with notes of mint, olives and earthy mushrooms.

Quadra Circle secretary treasurer Karen Gair says they were thrilled to find out they had received the Community Foundation grant.

She didn't hold out much hope that their application would be approved, and was stunned when it did.

"It felt so nice to think that they felt we were doing a good job and were willing to help," Gair says. "Everything seems to go to Campbell River, and it was nice to see they recognized our value over here."

The Senior Outreach Program, according Quadra Circle president Maureen McDowell, is essentially a way to increase the services offered to members of their community that wish to remain over on the island more, and enable them to remain in their homes as long as possible while giving them the supports they need to do so.

"As people get older, it gets harder and harder for them to get motivated enough to go across to Campbell River to get the care they need," McDowell. "I guess what drew us together was the wish to have services on our

island rather than be forced to go to a larger community."

And so they started creating those services themselves, one of which is the Senior Outreach program, headed by senior outreach worker Marie Sheran.

"I used to be a public health nurse," Sheran says, "so I'm familiar with problems with people at home. Our aim is to keep people at home as long as possible and provide them access to any services that we can offer them, both on the Island and let them know what services are available in Campbell River and elsewhere."

One facet of the outreach program is their Home Meals program, which sees nutritious meals prepared by Gowland Harbour Resort delivered to those who need them at the low cost of $5 each.

"It's a real asset," Sheran says, "because then the family doesn't have to worry about (the senior) not getting a meal when they're not there, and the people know that they can just heat it up and not have to wait for someone to come help."

McDowell says there is a misconception about the residents on the outer islands – that if they're wealthy enough to live in paradise, they can afford what they need to do so.

"There's quite an economic diversity over here on the Island," McDowell says.

"There's a myth that all the older people who live on the Islands are all wealthy retirees, 'snowbirds,' etc. and it's far from it. A lot of them are retired fishermen or farmers, or people with marginal incomes.

"Many of them are just getting by and don't have the money for social activities. We have great cultural events and things over here, and you can be as busy as you want to be in various things here, but if you don't have the extra $20 or whatever to go see a concert or whatever, it's a problem."

One of the most important support services offered by the outreach program is something that many people take for granted – companionship.

Sheran says 12 of the organizations' volunteers have taken a "senior peer counselling" course over in Campbell River, and it's proven itself to be of great benefit to their program.

"Many of our seniors are very isolated – and by isolation I don't mean they don't have family around, but sometimes their family is working or away from the home quite a bit – and they're quite lonely. Well, a senior peer councillor can go and visit them once a week,

take them for a walk, go for coffee, just have a visit at their home – whatever it takes to relieve that isolation."

75th Anniversary of the 1940 Ford

Beautiful Survivor!

2015 is the 75th Anniversary of the ’40 Ford. The ’40 has been called one of Henry Ford’s mostbeautiful designs ever, and ranks up there with the ‘32 Ford as a very popular base for a Hot Rod.

1980 Chevrolet Corvette coupe with a 350 CI L81 V8 motor and automatic transmission. It is a original all stock survivor car. Its nicely equipped with power steering, brakes, and windows, air conditioning, and Gymkhana suspension. I have had the car four years and got from a fellow who owned it for 27 years. The car spent its life in a garage and only driven during the summer months. It’s a ton of fun to drive and I show it at car shows, also take it to car club events, and especially enjoy touring.

Bob Davidsen

Since Jim & Patti Johnson moved to Campbell River ten years ago, their ’40 Ford Deluxe Tudorhas been seen on the streets regularly every summer. The car is a great daily driver. Jim is oftenasked if it’s all original, since the body is completely original, but modern components lurk underthat 1940 look.

Well, maybe not that modern… the stock chassis has been upgraded withindependent suspension using the popular Mustang II design up front, with C2 Corvette supplying the independent rear, including power disc brakes all around. The engine is a 1965 425 cubic inch “Nailhead Buick” coupled to a ST400 transmission.

Jim & Patti Johnson’s 1940 Ford Tudor well until 2014 when Jim decided the ’40 deserved a facelift. With the help of fellow club members and painter Dan LeBlanc a new coat of 1940 Ford Mandarin Maroon was applied in E&B Helicopter’s paint booth.

With regular maintenance and upgrading Jim expects the ’40 to make it to the ’40 Ford’s 100th anniversary.

It also has power steering, so it drives and rides much like a new car.

The interior is completely redone with a traditional look, but includes Volvo bucket seats, air-conditioning and a modern stereo.

Jim & Patti Johnson

In 1989 the car received a temporary paint job so it could take part to the 50th Anniversary celebrations, and that temporary paint job served it

A THING FOR ‘36 FORDS

John Davis has a thing for 1936 Fords, and after taking a look at the five window coupe in today’s column, I completely understand the attraction.

Flathead V8.

In 1962, Davis was 18 and working at Burger’s B&A in Ladysmith when he purchased a 1936 two-door sedan for $100.

Davis didn’t mind making the trip down island, but he would come back to Campbell River empty handed. It was sitting in a car port, full of leaves and it wasn’t running” says Davis of the 57-year-old Ford.

“The guy wanted $6,000 and I thought it was too much money.”

He eventually sold that car for $150, but as any gearhead knows your first car tends to stick in your memory and haunt your dreams long after it’s gone.

Davis owned a string of other hot rod or custom Fords over the years, including a 1940 Ford and a few Model A Fords.

The last Model A he purchased was sold before it was finished so Davis could concentrate on raising a family and building his business.

But in the spring of 1991, Davis started thinking it was time he picked up another project.

A classified ad in a Vancouver newspaper led him to the car you see in today’s feature.

It was a “not quite stock” 1936 Ford 5-window coupe with a rumble seat and a flathead V8. Mechanically, the car still had stock suspension and a stock three-speed transmission, which was hooked up to a 1940

Reprinted from June 2004 Alberni Valley Times

The car was in Victoria and its owner, Les Crombie, was still somewhat attached to the car after almost 20 years of ownership.

Apparently Crombie thought so too.

“He called me two weeks later and asked me what I could afford to pay,” says Davis. “There was another few weeks of dickering back and forth but I ended up paying $4,000.”

Davis finally had the 1936 Ford he had wanted for almost 40 years and by the summer of ‘91 he had it running.

With the help Russ Schoenfelder, who performed the body work, painted the car in PPG Black and reassembled the car, Davis ended up with a show-winning street rod.

leather for the interior and carpet which was installed by Dave Tabish at Cass A Interior in Campbell River. The ‘used sparingly” rumble seat is upholstered in the same red leather as the front seatsans door panels. Classic Instruments gauges take the place of stock units and, keeping with the no compromises theme, the outer rim of all six gauges received the 14-carat gold treatment.

Davis says he built the car without compromise and you can tell by the coupe’s interior..

steel units (stock are chrome) while the stock sideview mirrors remain.

The car was back on the road in 1997 and it made a big impression in its first outing – winning Best in Show at the Qualicum Beach Father’s Day Show ‘N Shine.

“It was sort of a dream car.” says Davis of the restoration.

FROM THE GROUND UP

This 1969 Camaro was purchased from a co-worker 12 years ago. The pictures show the transformation from a well worn white car to what it is now a finished (almost) vehicle. It was stripped inside and out to bare metal then placed on a rotisserie to better access all sides of the car.

The car was relatively rust free which is unusual for a 30 plus year old car. The only panel replaced was the door skin which wasn’t rusty but worn thin from previous body work. It was then coated with more modern products like epoxy primers then worked out from there.

Stan Cook’s 1969 Camero

While the body remains in stock form the running gear was extensively modified. The engine has most of the internals replaced with tougher parts.

The valve train is completely rollerized then the short block is topped off with aluminum heads, AIR-Gap intake, and the carburetor has been replaced with F.A.S.T. fuel injection. The accessory drive kit is a late model GM serpentine system.

MSD ignition puts things in to motion. The transmission is a 700R4 overdrive unit and the later model 8.5” corporate rear end contains 3.42 gears, Auburn posi. and Moser axles. The car rides on 17” Foose Legend wheels and Nitto 555 tires.

The whole interior was covered with a sound deadener (Dynamat). The interior is all new, original black carpet, upholstery and headliner. Auto Meter gauges are fitted to the stock console and the shifter adapted to control the 4 speed automatic. Music is supplied through a Custom Auto Sound 630NA unit and Kenwood speakers. The body work and initial prep was done at home. Special thanks to Henry and #1 Autobody for the final blocking and application of the water borne 2012 GM “Ashen Grey” paint and clear coat.

WESTERN STYLE For the whole family...

Plans for this Winter include installation of new front bolstered seat foams with stock appearing covers and 4 wheel Wilwood disc brakes.

They say there is a reason They say that time will heal But neither time nor reason Will change the way we feel

July 17, 1934-Sept. 4, 2013 I cried when you passed away I still cry today Although I loved you dearly I couldn’t make you stay A golden heart stopped beating Hard working hands at rest As Husband, Dad, Gramp and Gpa You were simply the best.

I still miss you as the years pass I still miss you as new memories are made I still miss you today and Every day.

For no one knows the heartache That lies behind our smiles No one knows how many times We have broken down and cried

FOR

KEN HUNTER

We want to tell you something So there won’t be any doubt You’re so wonderful to think of But so hard to be without.

We miss you.

DID YOU KNOW? Criminal record checks for volunteers working with children and vulnerable people are available free of charge from the BC Ministry of Justice (accessible online).

The Ministry also provides a reduced fee (currently $28) for criminal record checks related to employment.

The online provincial ministry service is available for organizations registered with the ministry. People applying for the criminal record check must use a code provided by the registered organization.

City Council recognizes the immense contribution of volunteers in Campbell River – and the City and Volunteer Campbell River are working together to try to improve access to free criminal record checks for volunteers in our community.

Each week, the Campbell River RCMP detachment receives an average of 12 employment and 22 volunteer applications for police information checks.

Questions? Please contact Ross Milnthorp, General Manager of Parks, Recreation and Culture at 250-286-5797 or the Campbell River Volunteer Centre at 250-287-8111.

The seasons, they are a changing!

You can help reduce the chance of flooding by keeping leaves, snow and other debris from blocking catch basins near your home. More than 3,300 catch basins let stormwater flow off the streets in our community – any help keeping them clear is appreciated. For more information, contact Dogwood Operations Centre at 250-286-4033.

He was kind enough to loan a few stand-up paddle boards and kayaks to the Campbell River Search and Rescue family camping weekend.

The fun these provided to the kids and adults alike made the weekend a spectacular success.

It was fun to watch the 6-year-old kids figure out stand-up paddle boarding and definitely helped wear them out so they would fall asleep easier in the evening (not to mention everyone else). Thank you so much for helping to make our weekend a little more adventurous and a lot more fun!!

Paws for a Cause to help fight animal cruelty

Some animals never know kindness.

The good news is, you can fight animal cruelty in your community by registering and fundraising for the 2015 Scotiabank and BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk, held in September to raise funds for abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals throughout B.C. This year, participants in more than 30 communities throughout the province will walk

to raise funds to help animals in need across British Columbia.

The Paws for a Cause walk benefitting the Campbell River SPCA branch, will be held at Nunn’s Creek Park on Sunday, Sept. 13 beginning at 9:30 a.m. with the walk starting at 11 a.m.

Participants will be able to enjoy fantastic entertainment and activities, including a bouncy castle and face-painting

for the kids, games for all ages, contests, prizes and a barbecue with delicious food.

Generously supported by local sponsors, 2DayFM 99.7, Campbell River Mirror, Great Canadian Oil Change, Mactavish Welding, Strathcona Toyota, Seymour Pacific Developments, Associated Tire and Auto, Marine Harvest, Dogwood Pet Mart, RH Printing and Design, Campbell River

Pet Centre, and SharKare, the event brings animal lovers and their furry friends from all walks of life together for a great time as well as a fantastic cause.

“This is the largest single event to help fight animal cruelty in British Columbia,” says Krista C onstantineau, B C SPCA manager of fundraising events.

“We are overwhelmed by the participation each year – it’s so great to see

thousands of people come together across the province to help B.C.’s most vulnerable animals – and the great news is, this year, registration numbers are up.

Our amazing supporters not only raise essential funds, the events are so much fun for two-legged and four-legged participants.”

MARS launches wildlife tote bag fundraiser

Mountainaire Avian R e s c u e S o c i e t y ’s (MARS) brand new fundraiser launches Saturday, Sept.12 at the Black Creek Fall Fair.

“R aptors. Turtles.

Bears. Fawns. Sockeye.

“Put wildlife on a functional and fashionable tote bag and you have a fashion statement like no

other,” says Dianne Pollock, volunteer coordinator with MARS. The bags are available in a variety of sizes from a versatile shopping, travel carryall or beach bag, to a dressy bag for a night out, down to the smallest bag for an iPhone.

coated fibreglass mesh, decorated with fabric images of native animals, birds, and aquatic life and then topped off with some dazzling bling, they are strong, functional and designed for use.

They are competitively priced from $10 to $40 for the largest bag and any size would make a unique and useful gift.

All the bags are made locally in the Comox Valley and Campbell River by dedicated volunteers who saw the need and stepped in with their artistic skills.

“Without these volunteers, this project simply couldn’t have gotten off the ground,” said Pollock.

In fact, MARS would still like to hear from sewers who have a little time to devote to this fundraiser as feedback has been very positive and the group expects strong interest.

MARS has attracted attention recently for being at the centre of caring for a number of abandoned and orphaned fawns – 16 and counting – that they have successfully rehabilitated.

Being a volunteer with Hospice, Murray visits people in the hospital and facilitates workshops. Through his passion for the well-being of others he is always willing to go the extra mile, taking on extra shifts for other volunteers. He represents Hospice in a very professional and caring way, connecting with individuals and helping them to be strong during their journey.

PROCESS

Sandy Royer models tote bags, big and small, which are the Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society’s latest fundraiser. The bags will be on sale at the Black Creek Fall Fair Sept. 12.

The fawns will be released back to their natural habitat by November.

While MARS staff and volunteers are extremely pleased with their success, feeding 16 hungry fawns depleted MARS funds and their care is an ongoing cost.

Fundraising is crucial to keeping the doors open at MARS and like many charities, they are getting creative in ways to attract donations.

Maj Birch, founder and manager of MARS says, “It is part of our philosophy that where possible, we want to give back to the donors

in some way and the tote bag fundraiser does that.”

MARS wildlife rehabilitation and caregiver volunteer Sandy Royer, who has no trouble getting down and dirty tending to the many casualties who arrive at MARS, is helping sell these bags by doing double duty as its very presentable model.

MARS hints that a fashion show will soon be seen on its Facebook page.

The tote bags will also be available at the Black Creek Fall Fair Sept. 12 on 2001 Black Creek Road from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Labour Day 2015

Honouring our workforce happy labour day!

Olga is one of 46,000 HEU members united around your care.

Today, and every day.

On Labour Day, we salute the men and women whose hard work keeps our nation moving in the right direction.

Their expertise, dedication, innovation and industry are the lifeblood of Canada’s economy, and it’s the combined effort of so many hands, hearts and minds working together as a team that keeps our country strong and vibrant.

As we celebrate Labour Day, we recognize with gratitude all of the workers who uphold and embody the robust work ethic that makes us so proud to be Canadians.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2015 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR | 69

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Origins of Labour Day rooted in a workers’ strike Though many Canadians now see Labour Day as little more than a summer holiday, its origins trace back to a significant time in Canadian history.

such protestations were easily replaced, so many simply accepted what their employers had to offer, regardless of how poor that offer was.

By the second half of the 19th century, Canadian cities were experiencing an influx of immigrants that caused populations to grow considerably.

This coincided with a changing workplace that was relying more and more on machines, putting workers in an unenviable position.

Workers’ oncespecial skills were now being handled by machines, leaving the working class with little leverage and no recourse to protest low wages, long hours or poor working conditions.

Workers who made

Such was the reality in Toronto in 1872, when the Toronto Printers Union began to lobby its employers for a shorter work week. When their demands were ignored, workers went on strike in late March.

The strike proved a blow to Toronto’s publishing industry, which had to sit by and watch as a group of 2,000 workers marched through the streets of Toronto in mid-April. As the protesters marched, they garnered more and more support, and eventually the

workers from neighboring towns were brought in.

crowd of marchers had expanded to 10,000, or 10 percent of the city’s population.

Though the published industry might have been dealt a significant blow, the response from industry leaders, including Toronto Globe founder George Brown, was less than pleasant.

Legal action was taken against the leaders of the strike, and replacement

But Prime Minister John A. Macdonald, a political adversary of Brown’s, supported the workers, eventually passing the Trade Union Act that decriminalized unions and led to the strike leaders’ release from jail.

Despite support from the Prime Minister, many workers still lost their jobs, and the goal of a shorter work week was not immediately achieved.

But the strike was a significant moment in Canadian history, showing workers they were not powerless.

In addition, an annual

parade was held in honor of the workers who went on strike, and this celebration soon spread to cities throughout Canada. By 1894, these parades were officially recognized when then-Prime Minister Sir John Thompson declared Labour Day a national holiday.

Scrap Metal Challenge cares for newborns It was close right to the very end, however, Marine Harvest Canada pulled out a win for the coveted Scrap Metal Cup with $5,127.04 in scrap metal.

“In four years the Campbell River Hospital Foundation Scrap Metal Challenge has raised more than $58,000 for vital medical equipment for our hospital,” says Stacey Marsh, executive director of the Hospital Foundation. “It is because of the commitment and support of companies like Finning, AJ Forsyth, Western Forest Products, T-Mar, Marine Harvest Canada, Shaw, Seawor-

thy Marine, Coastline Towing, ABC Recycling, Marine Link Transportation, City of Campbell River, the Mirror and the many, many people who donated at the public bin, that we can make a positive difference in health care for our community.

Thank you.”

There are roughly 400 babies born in Campbell River Hospital each year and the money raised from the Challenge will go towards helping the hospital’s smallest patients. The donation is going towards the purchase of bili-lights which are used to help treat babies with jaundice.

lenge, Marine Harvest, was pleased to be able to help the hospital while at the same time clear out its warehouse.

“The greatest bulk of the Marine Harvest donation was made up of old electrical cable. We have since moved to LED style lighting and all the older heavy cable was brought into our land based warehouses to repurpose, sell or recycle,” said Rick Adams, warehouse and logistics manager.

“The Scrap Metal Challenge became the perfect opportunity to put some of the original value of the wire back into the community.”

Jaundice is a common, temporary and usually harmless condition in newborns. It affects both full-term and premature babies, usually appearing during the first week of life. However, high levels of bilirubin can occur in the blood called hyperbilirubinemia. These high levels can be dangerous to a baby. Phototherapy is the most common treatment of jaundice and that is exactly what bili-lights are used for. The lights are suspended at a distance from the baby and help to eliminate bilirubin in the blood.

The winner of this year’s Scrap Metal Chal-
