A group of protestors takes to the streets of Metchosin on Saturday. The non-partisan group included representatives from a diverse range of organizations and voiced their frustration with the Conservative government led by Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Prime minister no-show for his own party ABC protestors take to the streets and fields of Metchosin Katherine Engqvist News Gazette staff

A field full of sheep graze around a giant ABC, spelled out in their pasture in hopes that Stephen Harper might see it from the air.

But the sheep don’t seem to mind as the sound of guitars and voices singing carry over their domain.

While this Metchosin field is quiet most days, Saturday was different. A few Metcho-

sin friends got wind that the prime minister was supposed to be appearing at a Conservative fundraiser just down the road from those sheep, and thoughts of a peaceful protest began to form.

It all started with the idea of painting the sheep orange and snowballed from there, said organizer Shannon Carman. “We thought we’d gather Metchosin and have a little rally.”

While this was an ABC – anyone but Conservatives – rally, it did not look to promote one specific political party but wanted to be inclusive, while encouraging Canadians to get out and vote for change on election day, Carman said.

“The idea was to keep it fun and light-

hearted,” she said as she bounced a fussy baby.

“We didn’t want to be angry, we wanted to be taunting.”

The group of protestors included a wide demographic, ranging from raging grannies to those wanting more support for veterans, and even a few clowns donning signage demanding more services for children. In total, roughly 150 assembled for the demonstration. Unfortunately for the group, the prime minister was not one of them. He wasn’t even on the Island Saturday.

However, among those parading down William Head Road, was none other than Tony Turner, a former Environment Canada scientist who was suspended due to his

viral YouTube protest song called “Harperman,” a rendition of which he led the crowd in.

“It showed me how it struck a chord with Canadians,” Turner said of his song, which was inspired by the ways he felt the current federal government undermined democracy.

Turner announced his resignation last week, hopped on a plane and landed in B.C. to rally protestors over the weekend. “I felt I had to do something,” he said. “I think this is the most important election of my adult life.”

Public have their say in Colwood Majority of speakers against proposed development Arnold Lim News Gazette staff

One by one, more than a dozen Colwood residents walked up to the microphone and said their piece.

Approximately 60 people were at Colwood Pentecostal Church last week for a public hearing on a proposed development that would introduce nine single-family homes and two apartment complexes onto properties at 3320 Metchosin Rd. and 3319 Painter Rd., the former site of the Pilgrim United Church. The church’s atmosphere was anything but dull.

“The scale of the development is mismatched with the scale of the existing community,” 11-year Colwood resident Ken Gray said. “My primary concerns are traffic and parking, (and) I have concerns about the density, because it is quite a leap from single-family housing.”

His views were well represented at the meeting, with those speaking against the development outnumbering those for by approximately four to one. Some vocal residents chimed in by asking for clarity on Colwood’s future development plans, while others implored council for less density to curb traffic safety.

Still others challenged mayor and council to keep the interests of the

closest neighbours in mind before supporting developers who would be “parachuting into the community” for financial gain.

“I don’t think increasing the density, especially at Painter and Metchosin, is wise given that within the next five years there will be extensive construction at Royal Bay,” Gray said. “Doing that at this time, I would use the word ‘reckless.’”

While many in attendance agreed, some painted a different picture of the potential of the area. Jeff Anderson said if the neighbourhood accepted the density, it could open the door to future amenities.

“I live on Farview Road, so I am right there and I think we need to start building and investing,” he said. “If we have more people in the neighbourhood then we will get more services like the bus and things like that.”

With traffic already bad, he added, additional traffic from the proposed development would not be a big factor. The addition of a sidewalk in the area, and the raised pathway through the development, could actually help increase safety for children in the area, said Anderson, whose three children walk to Sangster elementary across Metchosin Road. “(The developers) put a lot of effort into listening to us – they came around door to door and telephoned – they have been engaged,” he said. “The real letdown is there

isn’t enough people here tonight who don’t mind the development … it’s easier to not come and support something that is good for the neighbourhood.”

Colwood Coun. Gordie Logan, who has a child attending Dunsmuir middle school nearby on Painter Road, said council and the City have done their due diligence by asking developers for amendments, gaining concessions, including lowering the number of driveways from 10 to seven, moving the pathway through the property away from the parking lot, and raising it to make it safer for pedestrians.

Despite the controversial nature of the dialogue, Logan said he was heartened to see the large turnout and the enthusiasm of residents, calling it a demonstration of love for community.

“I think the residents who are in the neighbourhood have been there for a long time and are facing the reality there is going to be some change in their neighbourhood. And with change comes some additional pressures, like traffic,” he said. “But with change comes the opportunity to improve the situation. We realize this is a change, but we are also looking at what the community will look like 10, 15, 20 years down the road. We are not looking short term, we are looking long term.”

The proposal must still pass third reading at council, which is schedule for Oct. 13 at 7 p.m. alim@goldstreamgazette.com

Tony Turner, former Environment Canada scientist, leads a group of protestors through the streets of Metchosin on Saturday, singing his viral Youtube protest song.

‘Harperman’ songwriter rallies Metchosin voters Continued from Page A1

Instrumental in getting Turner to the Island was Crystal Sawyer. She organized Victoria’s Harperman sing-along on Sept. 17, which saw roughly 350 show up for the event. She heard about last weekend’s Conservative fundraiser about three days before the event and instead of pursuing her own rally, joined forces with Carman for one big demonstration.

“And here we are,” she said with a smile. That smile vanished as she added, “In my

lifetime I have never seen one issue unite so many Canadians. I’m downright embarrassed and shocked by the direction our government has taken.”

Sawyer wants her son to grow up in a country he could be proud of. “It feels like this country is at a crossroads in its history and it could go very well or very bad.”

She urged Canadians to get out and vote on election day Oct. 19. “The most important thing is that we vote together,” she said. katie@goldstreamgazette.com

RCMP investigating string of mailbox break-ins Katherine Engqvist News Gazette staff

Katherine Engqvist/ News Gazette staff

Several community mailboxes like this one just off of Sooke Road in Langford on the corner of Asworth Road and Yorkshire Place have been broken into.

“I still wonder if mail is missing,” she said, adding they had no way of knowing what might have been taken.

She said Canada Post told her they had held her mother’s mail from the time the break-in was reported, but when she went to pick it up, there only

seemed to be about a day’s worth. “Mom usually receives a lot more mail than that,” Brunckhurst said.

She was also disappointed with the new box, which was installed at the same location even though residents wanted it moved to a safer area.

Anick Losier, a spokesperson for Canada Post, said in an emailed statement that criminals are determined regardless of the target and Canada Post is

committed to doing everything possible to support police in their efforts to catch those individuals.

Losier couldn’t go into specifics on what actions Canada Post was taking to deter and stop property crimes due to the fact that exposing

them would aid those committing the crimes.

But promised efforts include everything from equipment to monitoring.

Berube said RCMP are “working closely with Canada Post investigators.” katie@goldstream gazette.com

While Canada Post is busy transitioning neighbourhoods to community mailboxes, the West Shore RCMP has been preoccupied investigating a string break-ins and thefts from existing multi-unit mailboxes in Langford and Highlands.

Between the end of August and late September, seven incidents of community mailboxes being broken into and the contents stolen.

According to West Shore RCMP, the mailboxes were forced open in overnight break-ins. Police are investigating the possibility that the incidents are related due to their proximity to each other.

While stolen mail is a serious issue, detachment spokesperson Const.

Alex Berube said police are also looking into possible identity theft.

“There’s always a risk,” he said.

Berube said identity theft techniques often include “dumpster diving” and mail theft.

The goal of these acts is to obtain key pieces of personal information about a potential victim, found on such items as bank or credit card statements.

RCMP are encouraging residents to pick up their mail daily and not leave anything inside the boxes overnight.

Anita Brunckhurst’s mother was a victim of one of these breakins. Brunckhurst picks up her mother’s mail from the community mailbox near Humpback and Irwin roads in Langford. It was broken into at the end of August and it took Canada Post about a month to replace the box, she said.

“The whole front swung open like a door, you could see everything,” she said, noting it looked like the box had been pried open with a crowbar.

Brunckhurst said identity theft was their biggest concern.

“The metal doesn’t feel as thick,” she said, adding that it also featured larger compartments for packages, making it more appealing to thieves. “I check frequently now just to make sure the box is empty.” She said she never knows when the mail will be dropped off as the times often fluctuate.

One of her other concerns was how hard it was to track down someone at Canada Post to notify them. “I checked a number of phone books and I was surprised.”

Brunckhurst said she thought the number would have been included with other government services, but couldn’t find it anywhere. “It is alarming; we have a lot more community boxes going in.”

“The cutbacks are really harming basic service,” she said, but she didn’t blame local employees. “I believe the post office employees are trying

OUR VIEW

Being choosy an iffy strategy Voters on the West Shore, whether your home falls in the Cowchan-Malahat-Langford riding or Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke, have had a number of opportunities to hear your candidates for member of parliament speak on all manner of subjects in group settings.

And more all-candidates meetings are scheduled on the West Shore ahead of election day Oct. 19.

But experience tells us that not every allcandidates meeting provides equal value for the voter. While some provide residents with a great chance to hear in-depth answers to questions that may be on voters’ minds, others devolve into a spouting of party line, if the candidates are not forced to think on their feet by alert moderators and audience members.

Attending one of these meetings is an investment in education on the part of residents. With so many people unsure of which candidate and party best fits their own values and hopes for their riding and country, hearing MP hopefuls in person, perhaps looking them in the eye, can go a long way toward building confidence in one’s voting decision.

It’s unfortunate that the organizers of some of these non-partisan meetings have seen certain candidates turn down their invitation to participate. More often than not it’s been Conservative candidates who have taken a pass on getting in front of larger numbers of their prospective supporters at one time.

While we understand that candidates and their handlers must make tough decisions on where best to spend their time, we wonder how giving your opponents more chances to sell voters on themselves and their party in your absence can pay off at the ballot box.

We believe voters are more likely to connect with newcomers to the federal political stage by getting in front of them. And with our ridings drawn differently and comprised of a different group of eligible voters, missing an opportunity to connect with more people would seem like a good investment in a candidate’s time.

Those strategy questions will be answered for candidates come Oct. 19.

A brief history of health spending Paul Martin rose briefly to the top The federal budget document job. began with an ominous warning In 2004, Martin staged meetings about deep cuts.

It’s from the Jean Chretien of the new plan. (I was there, and budget of 1995, more than 20 years the joke was that this was as far ago. That’s the last time anyone from Ottawa as Flaherty could get actually cut health care spending. without leaving Canada.)

In B.C., then-finance minister Kevin Falcon praised the long-term approach, acknowledging that health spending was ballooning to half of the provincial budget and had to be brought under control as baby boomers start to retire. B.C. has largely accomplished that, with spending increases below three per cent and health care outcomes that continue to lead the country.

As the current election campaign turns into the home stretch, Statistics Canada has announced a milestone. For the first time in history, the number of seniors exceeds number of children. This demographic shift is inexorable, predictable and must be addressed by whoever wins the Oct. 19 federal election.

NDP leader Thomas Mulcair is on record that he will scrap the Conservative formula for growthbased increases that he pretends are cuts, returning to six per cent every year while balancing the budget. Little detail has been provided on how this would be done.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau announced in Surrey last week that he will ante up an extra $3 billion over four years for health care, and “sit down with the provinces immediately” to renegotiate, a rerun of Paul Martin’s political theatre.

LETTERS Municipal democracy suffering Following the recent public hearing around the proposed development proximate to Metchosin and Painter roads, I have some suggestions and concerns with the process of community engagement.

This should interest all Colwood residents, as other neighbourhoods can and will face the same dilemma: How do councillors make decisions which balance the needs, rights and experience of existing residents with a desire to develop our community to a highest and best possible use condition? What is “best” and for whom?

I cannot point to a single change in perspective or design on the part of the land-use subcommittee, council or staff

Time to rein in government spending Our politicians spend millions of dollars on unnecessary things that the vast majority of us do not want our money spent on. What benefit is there for the majority of Canadians? As taxpayers, we have some obligation to help some of the Crown corporation companies.

The problem we have is the wages being paid out to certain management.

Why are we being stuck with paying so much for the CEOs? Who makes the decisions to pay out such wages using taxpayers’ money?

That being said, it’s time to end this exploitation, corruption and greed by senior public servants. It is time to take control of these overpaid, underworked employees.

Come to think of it, perhaps it’s a good thing that these people aren’t putting in 100 per cent each day.

If they worked any harder, they probably wouldn’t need half the employees.There you go, I just saved us a couple billion dollars.

I hope that one of these new election candidates will have much better control and knowledge of our spending.

Look at the departing federal politicians leaving behind those who

since I have been following the proceedings. A staff member and council member have each told me that they “like this sort of thing in their home neighbourhood.” Well good for you, but this is our neighbourhood.

On one occasion I attempted to convene public meetings where some real conversation could occur. My proposal was refused by all parties except local residents. Staff said they were legally restricted by municipal legislation and the B.C. Community Charter. Only two councillors actually met with residents and only one in a meaningful way. Is this truly the state of municipal democracy?

I think council needs to commence a review of the

I further invite councillors to state publicly their approach to development in Colwood.

One year into your mandate is a great time to tell residents what you see and believe. Otherwise I can only assume that intensive development along Latoria, Wishart, Metchosin and Lagoon roads, among others, is the new norm and the only way forward.

Anticipating this, I applied to vote by mail from my Ottawa address before leaving.

My application got lost.

But, I followed up.

My older brother also had problems. He moved temporarily from Toronto to Montreal and picked up a sublet. He has a Canadian passport, a valid drivers license and a valid medicare card, but no proof of address. He’s been jumping through loops to get registered.

Elections Canada

asked him to pay to get a letter notarized.

My younger brother has no fixed address.

He is back in Canada in between living in Seoul and taking off for an internship in the Philippines. He’s waiting to hear from Elections Canada what he has to do.

That is the reality for my generation.

We move around.

Getting registered is a nuisance. Despite this, on Oct. 19, let’s get out in record numbers to vote for a Canada we believe in.

A new fitness and supplement store is opening on Goldstream Avenue. House of Grains will offer supplements and nutrition products, feature a smoothie bar and a full clothing line at the front of the store, with the rear of the space dedicated to fitness instruction and classes geared to all fitness levels.

Tomorrow evening (Oct. 8), an all-candidates’ debate for the riding of Esquimalt-SaanichSooke takes place at Church of the Advent, 510 Mount View Ave. in Colwood. This event

Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

GOLDSTREAM NEWS GAZETTE - Wednesday, October 7, 2015

Rebels put a wrap on 2015 season Five players wind up their West Shore junior football career Don Descoteau News Gazette staff

Even after a 35-23 loss to Langley ended their season with a 2-8 record for the third straight year, the Westshore Rebels found reason to celebrate.

Do-everything player Hunter Lake, one of five Rebels who played their last junior football game Saturday at Westhills Stadium, had a big smile pasted on his face.

With a number of family members gathered round, including his dad, Ryan, who drove down from Clinton in the B.C. Interior earlier in the day, Lake said he felt a combination of “happiness and heartbreak” knowing his time with the B.C. Football Conference club had drawn to a close.

“It’s heartbreaking to know you’re not going to pull on a Rebels jersey again, but I couldn’t have done it with a better group of guys,” said Lake, who played most of the game at quarterback in place of starter Talyn Davies.

Lake connected on 16 of 26 pass attempts for 258 yards, with the three touchdowns. He also rushed nine times for a team-high 44 yards, including an impressive 25-yard run in the second half that set up a TD pass to fellow graduating veteran Nick Spindor.

“The level of commitment we’ve had this year is unlike anything I’ve ever played with,” Lake said.

“You can tell this team is going to be one to deal with; the level of no-quit, nothing but just pure fight and heart out of every single guy on this team.”

He enjoyed how teammates went all out to make sure veteran guys like Spindor and fellow receiver Joe Barkhouse got the ball.

Spindor, injured for much of this season with ailments ranging from a torn hamstring and broken hand to torn ligaments in his ankle, made the most of his last game in a Rebels jersey, catching four passes for 84 yards.

While the ankle was still tender, he wasn’t about to sit this one out. “This was my last game, so I thought I’d push through (the pain),” he said. He plans to heal up, start training again and try for a walk-on spot in the B.C. Lions’ camp next summer.

Barkhouse had seven catches for 80 yards, while Michael Peverelle added 69 yards on two catches, one of which went for 67 yards.

The Rebels led 8-7 after one quarter with Lake finding Davies with an eight-yard pass for a touchdown. Langley picked up the tempo and scored a pair of TDs and a field goal in the second quarter to take a 24-8 lead into the locker room. The teams went back and forth in the third period, with the

Rams’ Wayne Palmer connecting on a 35-yard field goal, but the Rebels showed in the final quarter they weren’t done.

As well as the TD pass to Spindor, Lake hit Darcy Cherneff in the end zone and found Noah Rogers for a two-point convert.

Despite the loss, Rebels head coach J.C. Boice was thrilled with the effort of his players.

“At the end of this game you saw graduate players compete to the bitter end, making great plays and setting a tremendous example for the young guys coming up,” he said.

“Hunter Lake, Nick Spindor, Joe Barkhouse, Cohen Sassaman, those guys set a great example making plays. And then you saw the young guys – and we had to play a lot of young guys – you saw them out-experienced, out-physicaled a little bit, yet they didn’t stop, they kept competing. The thing for the Rebels is we have to compete and we’re starting to do that.”

Among the priorities for the club this off-season, Boice said, will be to find a dedicated Rebels weight room in the community to be able to add strength training to their running regime.

“We need to get bigger, faster, stronger,” he said. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Five-game win streak carried into tonight’s home contest With a couple of big weekend wins under their belt and a five-game winning streak intact, the Westshore Wolves host the front-running Victoria

Cougars tonight (Oct. 7), starting at 7 p.m. at The Q Centre.

The Wolves (5-4-0-0), who dropped a 10-1 decision to the Cougars (6-1-1-0) in Esquimalt back on Sept. 17, are coming off a 6-2 win Saturday in Mill Bay over the Kerry Park Islanders.

Cory Hatcher paced the visitors with a three-goal performance.

Also scoring in the win were Jesse Nixon, Marshall Brown and Kayden Peck, who added an assist. Tomba Huddlestan and Branden Tangney had two assists each for the Wolves, who led 3-2 after two periods.

Chris Smith made 22 stops for the win in goal.

Westshore also won on the road Friday in Saanich, where Leighton Williams kicked out

all 27 shots he faced in a 3-0 Wolves victory. Tangney led the attack with a goal and two helpers, while Jacob Malloch and Peck also scored.

The Wolves began their game week last Wednesday with a 4-2 home win over Peninsula. Hatcher, Huddlestan, Cameron Kinsman and Tyson Malloch scored in the win. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Mixed results for Westshore RFC Rugby sides have time to regroup The Westshore RFC Valhallians elite men’s team is still looking for their first win under the new banner.

The former Velox club team valiantly battled against James Bay in B.C. Premier League qualification play at the Juan de Fuca field Saturday, but lost a 43-31 decision.

With Thanksgiving weekend off, the Valhallians have plenty

of time to tee up for their next match, Oct. 17 against CastawayWanderers at Windsor Park.

Earlier Saturday, Westshore RFC Island Division 1 men’s team also fell to 0-3 with a 27-14 loss to James Bay. The Div. 1 Valhallians are tentatively playing Port Alberni Black Sheep at JdF this Saturday (Oct. 10) at 1 p.m., but the match had yet to be confirmed at Gazette press time.

The defending B.C. champion Westshore Valkyries continued their dominance in Island wom-

en’s elite/Div. 1 play, humbling visiting Comox 53-0 in the opening match last Saturday at the Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre.

The Valkyries have this weekend off then head to Nanaimo for a morning match at May Bennett Pioneer Park against the Hornets.

The Westshore Under-18 side next sees action Oct. 25 in Duncan against Cowichan. Westshore played Bayside on the mainland on Sunday, but no result was available. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Grizzlies look to take bite out of Bulldogs

Don Descoteau/News Gazette staff

Victoria Grizzlies captain P.J. Conlon lets a shot go against Vernon Vipers goalie Andrew Shortridge, with Vipers’ defenceman Austin Cho providing some distraction. Shortridge stopped the shot, one of 30 saves he made in being named the game’s first star Sunday, as the visitors beat Victoria 4-1 at The Q Centre in Colwood.

The Victoria Grizzlies hung with the Vernon Vipers for the majority of Sunday’s B.C. Hockey League game in Colwood, but got snakebit in the third to lose 4-1.

The Vipers’ Riley Brandt was sprung with a long lead pass midway through the final period and scored the eventual winner. A nifty threeway passing play and resulting goal

by Liam Finlay made it 3-1 with about three minutes to go before an empty net shorthanded goal iced the game.

Nick Guiney opened scoring in the first for the Grizzlies with his team-leading fourth goal of the season.

Goalie Matthew Galajda was strong in net, stopping 29 of 32 shots, including 16 in the second period alone.

The loss was the Grizzlies’ third in a row and leaves them tied for last place in the BCHL with a 1-61-0 record. They’ll be looking to turn things around when they host Alberni Valley Buldogs tomorrow night (7 p.m. start) at The Q Centre.

The host Bulldogs

spoiled a two-goal effort by Guiney on Friday with a 4-2 win.

The Grizzlies gave their fans late thrills in Thursday’s home opener, only to lose 5-4 in overtime to Coquitlam. Down 4-2 in the third, the Grizzlies’ Corey Iapalucci made it 4-3 with 1:20 to play, then Chuck Bennis tied it up with one second remaining.

Guiney and Jake Stevens also scored for Victoria. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

How not to read When reading, you should be seated at a desk or in a comfortable chair, not lying on your stomach or on your side. Your back should have a normal curve and not be scrunched or propped up with one arm. If used for a long time the horizontal reading position can seem normal, even though it causes eyestrain. The visual system gets used to a distorted perspective, but the muscles which coordinate the eyes have to work hard to prevent double vision.

Once you decide to be in a comfortable chair, you need to consider what kind it will be. It should permit the feet to be flat on the floor. If the feet do not reach, try a phone book under them. The lower back should be supported, and the desk or table should be at waist level when the person is seated.

Working at a surface that is too high gives a similar distortion to viewing a movie from the front row, far side. You know how uncomfortable that can be, not only on your neck but on your eyes as well. A rule of thumb is that the reading distance should be no shorter than the length of your forearm. Be good to your eyes, they are the only two you will ever have.

Colwood resident Doug Morris managed to catch a shot of this little northern saw-whet owl in Colwood just off of Latoria Road.

The owl had just caught its dinner, what Morris thought was a mouse.

He notes that we have barred owls, great horned owls and screech owls, but this is the first northern saw-whet owl he’s seen and the smallest of the lot at about eight inches in height.

He was quite amazed at his luck in being able to catch a glimpse of this tiny bird.
