LOOKING FOR WORK?

Ten years of providing supports for families on the West Shore Centre on Wale Road celebrating a decade of successes Arnold Lim News Gazette staff

In October of 2005 the West Shore Child, Youth and Family Centre was born. Built with funds from the Children’s Health Foundation of Vancouver Island, the multi-use facility in Colwood is home to key support programming for children and families living on the West Shore. Its partners include the Pacific Centre Family Services Association, the Ministry of Children and Family Development the Boys and Girls Club and others. “Our goal (then) was to create a centre servicing kids all together,” said foundation CEO Linda Hughes, “so a family could come to one place to see different professionals, or have their needs met in a well-planned, wel-

coming place. I’ve heard it (has become) a real hub.” The foundation was looking to invest in a growing child and family focused community, Hughes said, when it chose to invest $7.5 million in a 38,000-square-foot facility a decade ago. Funds were raised by community partners, individuals and businesses. They charge virtually no rent to tenants – Pacific Centre Family Services pays just a dollar a year. “It has made a real difference to be able to offer quality service in a quality environment,” said the association’s executive director, Mitzi Dean. “It’s important to have consistency of space as well. They make it affordable for agencies whatever (their) size. They have increased our capacity, and the more resources we have to staff, the more we can offer to community.”

All the centre’s partners invite the public to join them Sept. 21 for a celebration of a decade of helping West Shore families. The organizations, which collectively employ 125 staff, will each contribute to the event. There will be a free barbecue lunch, face painting, a children’s dance group and other entertainment for the whole family. “Really it’s a celebration … Hopefully families who have occasion to go there will join us (alongside) people who have donated. It is going to be a really fun family- and child-friendly event,” Hughes said. “I can’t believe it has been 10 years and it was time to reflect on that.” The event runs from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at 345 Wale Rd.

Gallery space allotted in hotel “We saw that as a real positive (with) similar interests to what Westridge is trying to do, so in that way it is a very good fit,” he added. With a new artisan market coming to the facility on Wednesday and Sunday evenings, Wansbrough said the partnership could also be a fruitful one for Colwood, where he and his family have lived for more than 40 years. “Here is an opportunity to contribute back to community. There is no other art centre in the West Shore, so I didn’t want to see them move out of the (area) or essentially die a slow death where they are,” he said. “It’s good for the community; it’s way better for Coast, because they will get so much more exposure just based on location. I think as a family we are interested in getting arts and culture into the Western Communities. Here is a way we can do that.” alim@goldstream gazette.com

Climate change, sustainability among upcoming debate topics Candidates from South Island ridings to square off over next few weeks Don Descoteau News Gazette staff

The B.C. Sustainable Energy Association wants to hear what Greater Victoria federal election candidates have to say about topics relating to climate change and sustainability. The organization’s Victoria chapter, which undertook a speakers series last fall entitled Energy and the Next Federal Election, begins a series of candidate debates this week under the theme Energy, Climate and Our Future. Held in partnership with the Dogwood Initiative, the debates Tom Hackney get underway tonight (Sept. 16) at Edward Milne Community School in Sooke and involves candidates for the EsquimaltSaanich-Sooke riding, which includes most of the West Shore except Langford. “We had talks themed on various things, from behaviour change and transportation to carbon tax and building a viable economy,” said debates co-organizer Tom Hackney of the speakers series. “We all conceived this leading to a candidate’s debate. When we finished the planning, we figured we should spread the good news to all the ridings on the South Island.” Among the pre-arranged topics to be discussed by Conservatives, Liberal, NDP and Green candidates are renewable energy, oil tankers and pipe-

line expansion, green jobs, greenhouse gas emission reduction and impacts on future generations. “We spent a lot of time crafting questions that we feel cover the area fairly well, and we’ll be raising the questions neutrally,” Hackney said. “Our thought is that these issues are just so important and their importance is becoming increasingly clear as we hear news of wildfires, and droughts and the progress that is being made in sustainable energy.” Attendees will also be encouraged to ask their own questions during a Q&A section. Subsequent debates will happen Sept. 24 at First Metropolitan United Church in Victoria (for the Victoria riding), Sept. 24 at Our Lady of the Rosary Church in Langford (Cowichan-Malahat-Langford), Sept. 29 at Esquimalt United Church (EsquimaltSaanich-Sooke) and Oct. 2 at St. Paul’s United Church in Sidney (Saanich-Gulf Islands). All of the debates are scheduled for 6:30 to 9 p.m. For people with children who might otherwise be unable to attend, child care will be provided on site. Registration for the service is required; visit bcsea.org/victoria to sign up or to find more debate information. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Jazz lovers mark your calendars, the opening performance of the Church of the Advent’s 11th annual Jazz Vespers Series is coming soon. Leading off the popular musical series this Sunday (Sept. 20) is award-winning jazz and blues singer Maureen Washington. The Victoria songstress, named best jazz and soul artist in the 2014 Black Canadian Awards, will be backed by fellow musical notables Karel Roessingh on piano, Joey Smith on bass and Damian Graham on drums. “She’s a great way to start off,” says the church’s pastor, Rev. Ken Gray, of Washington. “We don’t generally include vocalists, but I think it’ll be a singing, swinging time.” Church of the Advent music director David Enns is responsible for charting the course for the popular series. He’s a musician himself who has connections around the jazz community and has, for some time now, routinely landed nationally and internationally known musicians to play at Jazz Vespers, Gray says. The reverend notes that the Vespers services are the “only regular jazz gig on the West Shore.” He estimates that of the 80 to 150 people who usually attend these monthly Sunday night combinations of music and subtle biblical messages, three-quarters are not “church people.” “We’re talking more about the

Award-winning vocalist Maureen Washington is the opening performer this Sunday (Sept. 20) for this season’s Jazz Vespers series at the Church of the Advent in Colwood. transitions and the themes of life,” he says. “Generally people feel engaged because we meet them where they are.” Similar to how musicians improvise their performances, Gray says he often switches up his original plan for the accompanying reading for Vespers. “I usually pick a scripture passage ahead of time, but nine times out of 10, I change whatever plan I

had because something strikes me. I improvise using words, they improvise using music.” The Jazz Vespers services happen the third Sunday of the month at 7 p.m., except during December. Church of the Advent is at 510 Mount View Ave., off Sooke Road in Colwood. Admission is a free will offering, as with any other church service. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Amalgamation rethink forum goes Thursday An Esquimalt councillor wants the public to better understand what amalgamation might look like in Greater Victoria. “I believe the public hasn’t had fair and equitable access to opposing (views),” said Beth Burton-Krahn, one of the organizers of tomorrow’s (Sept. 17) forum, Rethinking Amalgamation, at Camosun College Lansdowne campus. The issue of amalgamating the region’s 13 municipalities in some form has been ongoing for years. In the 2014 election, Langford and seven other municipalities had questions on the ballot about reducing the number of municipalities in Greater Victoria through amalgamation. Only Langford and Victoria asked citizens directly if they were interested in amalgamating, and the vote here passed narrowly. The forum happens at 7 p.m. Thursday. Guest speakers include University of Victoria professor Robert Bish, and Metchosin resident Johnny Carline, former chief administrative officer of Metro Vancouver.

OUR VIEW

Are you prepared for a disaster? If disaster struck tomorrow, would you be ready? If recent storms have taught us one thing, it is that residents are woefully unprepared for any sort of natural disaster. Examples of 9-1-1 operators being inundated with phone calls from residents demanding to know when their power would be back on, and insisting someone pay for the contents lost in freezers, is exactly what not to do in the event of a storm. That phone line is only supposed to be used in the event of a real emergency or when someone’s life is in danger. Some soggy hamburger and the Internet being down, in our books, does not classify as an emergency. While the West Shore seemed to miss the brunt of Mother’s Nature fury and didn’t see the record-breaking power outages the lower mainland had to contend with, next time we may not be so lucky. People’s expectations for immediate service leave us shaking our heads. Quite frankly, it is an embarrassment when compared to other events going on around the world. In the event of a natural disaster, or an Act of God as insurance companies like to call them, the government expects you to be on your own for a minimum of 72 hours. Yes, that is three days you are expected to be on your own and during that time you are expected to have clothing, food and water for every member of your household, including your furry companions. In the event of a major earthquake, help will not be knocking on everyone’s door at that 72-hour mark. The limited services available through local municipalities and agencies will be overrun with demand. And if you think that big box store will supply you with fresh bread and eggs, think again. No one will be working in the rubble of those buildings. So as winter approaches, bringing more powerful storms to an area that is already deemed to be at high risk for serious earthquakes, it’s a reminder for residents to become prepared. Talk to your families, friends, and neighbours. Have a plan if disaster strikes, because you will be on your own. What do you think?

Haisla Nation Chief Councillor Ellis Ross has no time for crude oil projects, but he has been working towards gas-related development as long as anyone. Ross spoke out in support of the elected Wet’suwet’en chiefs in their efforts to resolve the dispute with Unist’ot’en members. “Opposition is the easiest job in the world,” he said. “What is difficult is finding an answer when a First Nations mother has concerns about her child’s future. “Politicians are quick to shout out sound bites and get into camera shots, but where are the cameras when another First Nations member takes their own life or when they pass away from highway/alcohol related deaths?” Ross noted that recent court decisions have put B.C. aboriginal leaders in the best position they have ever had, with governments and development project proponents coming to them “with inclusion in mind” after decades of resource development that has passed them by. You wouldn’t know it most days, but First Nations along both the Coastal GasLink and Pacific Trails gas pipelines have agreed to them. More aboriginal leaders are getting tired of managing poverty, and misguided protesters. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Entitlement mentality pervasive in our culture

Letters to the Editor

The rabid callers that Tom Fletcher describes are an example of ignorance combined with the entitlement mentality. The old joke about city dwellers thinking that chocolate milk comes from brown cows may have a ring of truth about it. Are B.C. schools not teaching people that milk and eggs have to be produced and transported by someone, who should not be expected to work for nothing. Oh, right. That’s the school system that hasn’t stopped bullying despite decades of effort – the collectivist bureaucracies of the BC government and BCTF are not doing a proper job of education. The entitlement mentality drives dangerously, cheats, robs, riots, rapes, and murders. Not new – Vancouver has a riot every decade or so – but seems to be increasing (or is it just there are more outlets for idiots, such as the twit service and media who are not smarter?). And we are now in for weeks of politicians pandering to the mentality by promising what they can’t deliver – such as Liberal leader Justin Trudeau promising better roads,

Re: Urban society slides into helplessness (B.C. Views, Sept. 9) Thanks for the article on the way society cannot handle any small upsets to the status quo. I remember the big windstorm of 2006, which incidentally was in December. I was a 60-plus senior at the time, and my power was out in a residential area of Colwood for five and a half days, as our two-house power line was not a high priority in the queue. I watched the Hydro trucks go by day after day, waiting my turn for reconnection. Fortunately I have a wood stove that can heat my house, boil water and cook food. It does get tiresome living by candlelight but I had my disaster radio nearby to listen to the local station give updates on how Hydro was doing. Most of my freezer contents were moved to friends’ homes, and my garden shed became my refrigerator. Anyone with common sense can understand that the repair crews work tirelessly to restore power as quickly as possible, and perhaps the media could help by reminding people that they need to fend for themselves for several days if the major earthquake ever occurs. Calling 911 just clogs up the lines and can stop people from getting through with real emergencies.

United Way campaign benefits local programs Bridges for Women, with Langford and Victoria locations, among those agencies helped by donations Kendra Wong Black Press

Stacy made one of the best choices of her life by going to a transition home in Duncan last year. It was there that a worker told her about Bridges for Women Society, a community agency offering employment training and supportive programs for women impacted by violence or abuse. “They helped me in so many ways,” said Stacy, who did not want to give her last name for

safety reasons. “They helped me with my own self-image and my own self-esteem and made me feel that I was actually worthwhile.” The program helped Stacy put together a cover letter and resume and gave her the knowledge to keep a job once hired. After six months in the program, Stacy graduated from Bridges for Women’s West Shore program in Langford and within a month she found full-time employment. “I now have another family. Bridges for Women is like another family. I have a home. The support

Victoria,” said Victoria Pruden, executive director of Bridges for Women. “We don’t turn anyone away, but as you know, there’s a cost to supporting people in need. It really helps us be the best community resource that we can be.” Today (Sept. 16), United Way Greater Victoria launches its annual community campaign, under its 2015 theme The Power of You. Its aim is to encourage residents, workplaces and community leaders to become donors and participate with the organization. CEO Patricia Jelinski said even

is the big thing. There’s things that tend to happen in real life that baffle people,” she said. “As someone who has gone through stuff and needed counselling and training, there’s things that happen that set you back. It’s being able to come to some place and be welcomed and talk about it.” Bridges for Women is one of more than 100 programs in the Capital Regional District that receives funding from United Way Greater Victoria. “It helps us make sure that we can keep our doors open in

the smallest donations can make a difference. “When you become part of this large collective, which is what makes United Way unique, you’re part of a movement of people that when we come together, have a huge impact in our community,” she said. This year, the organization hopes to see 2,000 new donors and raise roughly $6 million. Last year, they helped 80,000 kids, youth, families and seniors in the local community. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Capital Regional District Notice of

Public Hearing

Notice is hereby given that pursuant to Sections 890, 891 and 892 of the Local Government Act, that a Public Hearing: Will be held at: Located at: On:

Langford resident Harry Prior was a familiar face at United Way Greater Victoria events over the years, especially those on the West Shore. He continued to support the charitable organization until his passing last month.

Juan de Fuca Local Area Services Building 3-7450 Butler Road, Otter Point, BC Monday, September 21, 2015, starting at 7 p.m.

To consider adoption of: Bylaw No. 3941 - cited as “Juan de Fuca Soil Removal or Deposit Bylaw No. 1, 2015”. The purpose of Bylaw No. 3941 is to regulate the removal and deposit of soil within the Juan de Fuca Electoral Area as shown on the map below. This bylaw replaces Bylaw No. 3297, “Juan de Fuca Electoral Area Soil Removal and Deposit Bylaw No. 1, 2006”. The actual Bylaw should be reviewed to determine specifically how particular lands may be affected. All persons who believe that their interest in property is affected by the proposed Bylaw will be provided an opportunity to be heard, or to present written submissions, on matters contained in the proposed Bylaw.

Proud philanthropist passes; United Way was his cause Arnold Lim News Gazette staff

If Harry Prior got a feather in his cap for every good deed, his cap would have overflowed long ago. Sadly, the West Shore philanthropist’s days of goodwill came to an end Aug. 27, when he passed away at Selkirk Place at age 95, after spending decades involved in community giving. “Harry is a guy who proved that ongoing support is key for any organization and his commitment shows his exception need in this community,” United Way Greater Victoria campaign chair Bruce Williams said. “He stuck with it; he never withdrew

from that because he knew the difference he was making. We need more Harrys in the world.” Williams had the “pleasure” of introducing Prior to the crowd at a number of United Way events, where he was always smiling and happy. Prior was one of the donors who helped push the 2014 United Way campaign to approximately $6 million, money that supports programming and services for approximately 80,000 people in Greater Victoria. Prior had supported the United Way from the organization’s first years as the Red Feather Appeal and continued every year of his life until he died. alim@goldstreamgazette.com

Wildfire victims helped by liquor store customers, staff Donations from customers and staff of B.C. Liquor Stores on the West Shore, along with those from around the province, helped provide residents forced from their homes by raging wildfires with some comfort in a time of need. Donations received here and

at stores elsewhere in B.C. supported Canadian Red Cross relief efforts for victims of the recent Rock Creek and Oliver wildfires in the south Okanagan to the tune of almost $102,000. To help support residents of those communities who were

forced to start from nothing after their homes were destroyed by fire, customers made donations of $2 or $5 – or multiples thereof – at checkouts at 196 B.C. Liquor Stores throughout the province. These donations, collected from Aug. 18 to Sept. 6, helped

the Red Cross provide assistance to victims of the fires to reunite family members, provide necessities such as blankets, food and water and assist victims with longer-term needs such as replacing equipment to return to work and helping with rent.

B.C. Liquor Stores’ customers and staff have aided Red Cross disaster relief for humanitarian crises at home and abroad since 2003, when stores first collected donations to support victims affected by wildfires burning that summer in the province.

Longtime Langford resident Ellie Dmytriw rings in her 100th birthday with a cake and a party at the Langford Legion earlier this month.

NSP-TBYB-GLDS

Visitors came from as far as Smithers and Edmonton this month to help a longtime Langford resident ring in her second century on the planet. Eleanor Dmytriw, known affectionately as “Ellie” to her friends, was celebrated on her 100th birthday on Sept. 6 with a gathering at the Royal Canadian Legion’s branch 91. Roughly 50 people joined the Sunday night party for the avid bridge player, who still heads out weekly to play the game she loves. For years Dmytriw joined fellow aficianados for bridge games at the Royal Colwood Golf Club. It was only fitting that the Legion was decorated with playing cards during the party. Ellie’s only child, retired Victoria police officer Don Milton of Sooke, was part of a special birthday chorus at the evening festivities. He’s part of the Greater Victoria Police Chorus, some members of which gathered to

sing Happy Birthday. Among those on hand for the celebration was Dmytriw’s longtime friend, Hector Brassard, who travelled all the way from Smithers to wish her well. After moving to Langford from Edmonton 45 years ago, Ellie and her late husband lived on Florence Lake Road for many years. More recently she moved in to the Alexander Mackie Lodge on Station Avenue, next door to the Legion. Staff and fellow residents at the Mackie Lodge celebrated Dmytriw’s big day with a luncheon earlier in the day. While she just has one son (and a daughter-in-law, Irene), Ellie is blessed with three grandchildren, Vern, Tara (Yves), Bruce (Dawn), six great-grandchildren and five greatgreat-grandchildren. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Vision Matters Healthy Eyes. Doctor Delivered.

Dr. Brent Morrison, Dr. Jeffrey Thompson, Dr. Amanda Tawadros, Dr. Ann-Marie Stewart, and Dr. Chris Snow

Changes in Your Vision You may find it disturbing if you are not seeing things as clearly and sharply as you used to, but as people get older, certain changes in their vision will occur. For example, the pupils of the eyes tend to become smaller, and the crystalline lenses inside the eyes become less clear. You may need more light to see and read comfortably. The decrease in clarity of the crystalline lenses tends to scatter the light entering the eye. This can sometimes cause a fogging of vision or a decreased tolerance to bright headlight glare. As people age the eyes’ focusing ability decreases and it may become more difficult to change focus from distant to near objects and vice versa. These are just a few of the changes in your eyes that may be interfering with your ability to see well and comfortably. If you are experiencing any of these changes in your eyes or if you have other vision problems you feel need attention, have your eyes examined by your Optometrist.

City of Colwood

Notice of Revitalization Tax Exemption Bylaw Amendment Notice of Intention to Adopt Revitalization Tax Exemption Bylaw (Hotels) Amendment #1, Bylaw No. 1596, 2015 The City of Colwood wishes to amend an existing revitalization tax exemption program that encourages the development of hotels, motels and lodges to improve upon the inventory of quality rooms available to the traveling public. Council has the following objectives for the program which are established by the existing bylaw: • to encourage new hotel, motel and lodge investment in the City of Colwood; • to promote a higher standard of overnight accommodations and enrich the visitor’s experience while staying in the City of Colwood; and • to generally reinforce the City’s commitment to long-term development of the tourism industry in Colwood. Owners will be eligible for tax exemptions if they have completed construction of a new hotel, motel or lodge within the City where the value of construction is $2,000,000 or greater. The program is intended to accomplish these objectives by providing a tax exemption to eligible projects. This tax exemption will provide tax certainty to the property owner and reduce the municipal property tax burden on eligible hotel, motel and lodge projects for a period of up to 10 years. The tax exemption will apply to that increased portion of municipal property tax imposed on the improvements as a result of the British Columbia Assessment Authority increasing the assessed value of the improvements on the land following construction. The amount of an annual tax exemption will be calculated by deducting the baseline assessment (value of improvements before commencement of the project) from the current assessed value of improvements and applying the difference to the current municipal tax rate. For example, the City estimates that the value of the tax exemption for the hotel project at Wale Road under this program would be approximately $100,000 per year for 2016 and the following two years. The proposed changes to the program in the amendment bylaw are: • to clarify that if multiple building permits are issued in respect of a property that will have a new hotel, motel ,or lodge project, that the tax exemption will not include the value of improvements existing at the time of the tax exemption application or the value any improvements to be built before the new hotel, motel ,or lodge project; • to allow interior shops and conference rooms for the new hotel, motel ,or lodge project to form part of the improvements exempted for tax purposes; and • by requiring the revitalization tax exemption agreement for a successful project to be signed before issuance of an occupancy permit for the new hotel, motel ,or lodge project. A Council meeting has been scheduled September 28th, 2015, at 7 p.m. to receive public comment. For more information about the Revitalization Tax Exemption Program and the amendment bylaw, please contact Andrea deBucy, Acting Director of Finance at adebucy@colwood.ca This notice is given in accordance with section 227 of the Community Charter.

Mann, oh Mann: ’Rocks regain Cup Role players, stars gel well in Shamrocks’ lacrosse victory Don Descoteau News Gazette staff

With hundreds of fans still lingering around The Q Centre, drinking in the jubilation of the Victoria Shamrocks’ ninth Mann Cup lacrosse win and first since 2005, Karsen Leung gave a shoutout to his team’s supporters. “We fought so hard through the series; we’re exhausted; but just having these guys here getting loud it helps out so much,” he said after scoring twice in the Rocks’ seriesclinching 12-6 win over the Peterborough Lakers in game six Friday. “We look forward to playing in front of these guys all the time. It’s a special feeling right now.” Leung, one of a number of Shamrocks players who learned the game as kids in Greater Victoria, dedicated the win to the whole Victoria community. “Ever since we were in Mann Cup 2013 (in Colwood), everyone’s been pushing me, pushing our team to keep going, keep going. And this is it, we finally did it.” The Lakers didn’t plan to go quietly: they trailed 4-0 after one and 5-1 in the second Friday but pulled within two, 6-4, by the end of that period. But the fired-up Shamrocks came out guns blazing in the third. Jesse King scored his seventh and eighth goals of the series, 30 seconds in and at the 4:45 mark to make it 8-4. Captain Scott Ranger added to the lead 32 seconds later. While the Lakers’ Turner Evans returned the favour less than a minute afterward to cut the gap to 9-5, Peterborough never really recovered from the early onslaught and the Shamrocks’ defenders and transition players clamped

Don Descoteau/News Gazette staff

Dan Dawson’s four-month-old son, Theo, joins the celebration after the Shamrocks captured the Mann Cup. down further. “Our defence has really been the core of our team, I think, throughout the whole year, King said after receiving a huge hug from his dad, Lorne. “Seeing them battle is just amazing and I like to return the favour once in a while. I think they enjoy that

as well so I just try to feed off them.” Fellow attacker Dan Dawson, who earned his sixth Mann Cup title and piled up a Cup record-tying eight assists on the night quarterbacking the offence, said the Shamrocks responded well to the Lakers’ mid-game threat.

The building of a champion

The management and coaching staff of the Victoria Shamrocks set themselves a goal last fall after losing a second straight Mann Cup final. They looked at what past Cup winners had in common, what their team already had going for it and what it was missing, with the idea of building a roster that could not just compete for the Cup, but go all the way. They accomplished that in spades this season, winning the Western Lacrosse Association regular season and playoff crowns and downing the Peterborough Lakers 4-2 in this year’s Mann Cup. Along the way they went 12-2 in the post-season, outscoring their opponents 151-96. “We brought guys in who could help show us the way, Dan Dawson, Rory Smith, Matt Roik; those are guys that have been there and they can show us the intricate parts of what it takes,” head coach Bob Heyes said Friday after his players captured the club’s ninth Cup. “You bring in guys who are hungry: a Steve Priolo, a Daryl Veltman; guys who played their whole careers probably never ever thought they’d get a chance to be here and they’ve done it. Then you take a Jesse King, who was a star two years ago for two games in the Mann Cup, and then couldn’t play last year for us. This year he made the sacrifice and the commitment to come and play here for the whole year. He had offers to do other things, but he wanted to win a Mann Cup. “All these guys committed; sacrificed the time to be here … It takes a lot to put this team together, but I think there’s going to be a focus to be a repeat and to do it, but it’s a long road to go, a long road.” editor@goldstreamgazette.com

“They were answering -they got within three goals, and then got it within two, it was a scary thing,” he said. “So our transition, our defence won us that Mann Cup, no doubt.” Dawson, who heads to New York this week to captain Team Canada at the World Indoor Lacrosse Championships, had a huge smile on his face as he cradled four-monthold son, Theo, and watched his teammates share Cup time with each other and their families. “It’s a young group we’ve got. (I’m) reflecting; when they grab the Cup over their heads, that’s what it’s all about. Seeing the joy and the excitement in the guys raising the Cup for the first time, it never gets old.” While the Rocks appeared to have more energy than the Lakers down the stretch Friday, Peterborough head coach Mike Hasen didn’t make excuses for his team. “Our guys were ready for this tonight … That’s what the Mann Cup is, it’s a grind and both teams have to go through it,” he said. “(The Shamrocks) came out with a purpose and a pop in their step and we did our best to match it, and at the end of the day we came a little bit short.” Corey Small scored a gamehigh three goals, added an assist and was awarded the Mike Kelly Memorial Trophy for his efforts as Mann Cup most valuable player. He led all players with 25 points (10 goals, 15 assists) in six games. Also scoring for the winners were Daryl Veltman and Rhys Duch, and defenders Bradley Kri and Tyler Hass. Other goal scorers for Peterborough were Curtis Dickson, Brad Self, Mark Farthing, Scott Evans and Chad Tutton. Victoria outshot the Lakers 45-37, with the Rocks’ Aaron Bold and Peterborough’s Matt Vinc going the distance. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

‘Firefighting’ JdF Grizzlies alum closer to his hockey roots West Shore hockey product Cracknell signs with Canucks Black Press

It’s not uncommon for junior B hockey players to end up as firefighters. There’s certainly at least a few around Greater Victoria. It’s less common, however, that such players make the National Hockey League. But it happens. Rare, if ever, does an NHL player jump in to fight a full-on wildfire. It’s been that kind of summer for Adam Cracknell. The former Saanich Brave and Belmont secondary student has one of the most curious cases leading to the start of hockey season. Last month the 30-year-old signed a one-year contract to play for the Vancouver Canucks. And on Aug. 31 he found himself throwing dirt on the flames of a wildfire in Moyie, a Kootenay town near Cranbrook. “It was pretty intense; the flames were eight to 10 feet tall and it was really windy, about 40 kilometres per hour,” Cracknell said. Untrained as a firefighter, it was his first experience. The whole event lasted only about an hour, but it was one Cracknell won’t forget. He was in the area to skate with his WHL alma mater, the Kootenay Ice, where he played from 2002 to 2006. He was watching the flames with a neighbour when the fire became increasingly threatening. “My neighbour and I looked at each other and you could see the flames, and just knowing how dry it is and what’s going on around here, we figured let’s grab some shovels and go help it out and try to contain it.” The two threw dirt into the flames and other strategic areas, following the instruction of a retired fireman, until a helicopter showed up to tackle it from the air. “We were in good hands. Guys were spotting us and making sure we were okay, watching out for other flames,” Cracknell said. “Looking back on it, it was dangerous, but we had a lot of help. Anything to help out around here – it could have been worse.” Cracknell was in Greater Victoria for 12 days earlier this summer for his annual pilgrimage (as many NHL players do) to train with Jeff Compton. Cracknell has been working with the highly regarded Victoria Royals strength and conditioning coach since graduating from Belmont secondary in 2003. Lately Cracknell has been acquainting himself with his new team during informal skates. Players don’t officially report to the Canucks until Sept. 17. It’s another leg in the long journey for the kid from Prince Albert, Sask., who moved to Langford and played with Juan de Fuca minor hockey before joining the Braves, later joining the WHL’s Ice partway through the 2001-02 season. “My days with the Braves were a great time and helped (make that) step before the WHL,” Cracknell said. “I still have friends from that team.” He was drafted in 2004 by the Calgary Flames and in the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons played a regular role as an energy player with the St. Louis Blues. He was so impactful against the Los Angeles Kings during the first round of the 2014 playoffs that the Kings signed him shortly after they won the 2014 Stanley Cup. But the Kings waived him before he played a single game. After spending the better parts of two seasons with the Blues, he played 17 games with the Columbus Blue Jackets, only to be traded back to the Blues where he finished the season playing 22 games for their AHL affiliate, the Chicago Wolves. If the Canucks are looking for a disciplined, sizeable energy player they’ve found one in Cracknell. For a hard-working, hard-hitting fourth liner, he’s managed to draw just 14 minutes in penalties in 82 regular season games and one minor in 10 playoff games. “It’s an exciting time, an opportunity to play a (type of) game that I like to play. I feel like I have a good chance and opportunity, I have to try to stand out from the rest of the guys.” Coming into a new team and competing for one of only a couple spots is always hard, but there’s

Did you know? n Adam Cracknell’s NHL playoff experience reaches far beyond the 10 games on his stat sheet. In 2013, he was part of the Blues’ hardhitting first round series against the Chicago Blackhawks. n In 2014, it was another highly physical first round exit to the Kings. In both cases, the opponent went on to win the Stanley Cup. n Cracknell played for longtime Saanich Braves coaches Dick Crowder and Bob Clark.

Former Saanich Braves junior B player and Belmont secondary alumnus Adam Cracknell is coming back to B.C. as he signed a one-year contract with the Vancouver Canucks.

a reason they sign you and you have to remember that, Cracknell said. “It’s always competitive when you get there, but I shouldn’t have any nerves. It’s great to be back in B.C.” editor@goldstreamgazette.com

On the road again, and again and again

Grizzlies start five-game road trip with a loss in Duncan

Arnold Lim News Gazette staff

The first of five straight road games didn’t go quite as planned. Sharing a home with the Mann Cup-hosting Victoria Shamrocks and the Kraft Hockeyville exhibition game between the Vancouver Canucks and San Jose Sharks have pushed the Victoria Grizzlies onto the road for the entire month of September. Despite this and a season opening loss to the Cowichan Capitals 3-2, team general manager Jim Swanson said there is reason for hope. “I thought it was a great rivalry game to start for both teams,” he said. “I think the edge in that game could have easily gone the other way. We

know they have a tough team and we have a tough team and it’s going to be a great thing to watch us come together.” West Shore resident Cole Pickup opened the scoring in the season opener at the Island Savings Centre in Duncan with a power play marker 2:02 minutes in. However, Cowichan, which boasts 15 returning players in the lineup, volleyed back with two straight from Matthew Hude and Ayden MacDonald to pull ahead. A second Pickup goal to square it up was not enough as Kade Kehoe’s short-handed tally late into the third sealed the Grizzlies’ fate. Despite the loss, Swanson said he liked the team’s resolve for a team with 15 new faces. “(It’s great) to be able to get some team bonding in on a

road trip early,” he said. “If we get out of this at break even, we know we will be in good shape when we get (home). Having an imbalanced schedule off the top is a blessing in disguise.” The Grizzlies next game is Sept. 18 in Nanaimo, before heading to Alberni Valley, and then Chilliwack. Their first home game at The Q Centre is Oct. 1. “We are excited to see the community embrace this team the way they have, it has been a fun buzz… Oct. 1 is a date for us to introduce so many things we will try and bring a new entertainment level and new excitement to The Q Centre,” Swanson said. “We are really looking forward to the Grizzlies being a rallying point, especially in the West Shore.” alim@goldstreamgazette.com
