Pioneer speeds toward record Free transportation offered to polling stations

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Pioneer Log Homes is hoping to set a world record while raising funds for veterans groups with the creation of a log car.

For two years now, the Williams Lakebased company has been planning the project, said founder and owner Bryan Reid Sr. “It’s the first of its kind to our knowledge.

We got a hold of Guinness and they said we would be eligible for the world record and they would create a category for log cars.”

The car’s body is made from one giant cedar tree harvested near Bella Bella and powered by two Buffalo turbines, made by one of Pioneer’s customers in Buffalo, New York.

“It is exciting,” Reid said of the project.

“There’s already a standing bid on it and it is very substantial.

All proceeds will go to-

Independent candidate Sheldon Clare I am a firm believer that governments don’t grow the economy, people do. But in order for people to grow their local economies, they must have the tools to do it.

Individually, our best tool at hand is our education combined with our experience. As I’ve stated before, we need to allocate more resources to helping people access education so they can increase their skills for today’s fast changing economy. As well we need to ensure that they have opportunities where they live to use their educations to add value to the economy.

But in a rural, Northern community, a serious problem arises when governments continue to download responsibilities but not the funding needed to meet them.

Most municipalities do not have the tax base to properly meet these challenges, and so regional economies continue to shrink as costs go up and working age populations move elsewhere.

Rural economies continued

Weather

Continued From Page A4 Liberal Party candidate Tracy Calogheros The primary barrier to our collective economic success is that we are operating in silos: Cultural, geographic, industrial, ecological, and governmental.

For the past decade the federal government has approached issues with a narrow, ideological focus and has ignored all other considerations. This is the 21st century. We must embrace a “triple bottom line” (social, environmental, fiscal) as we consider and proceed with responsible development. We need to work together to find common goals to further our collective interests. One of the MP’s jobs is to facilitate those conversations.

Industry and ecology are not bound by geopolitical boundaries.

Neither can political ideologies or cultural differences be allowed to create barriers to effective collaboration.

Liberal Party candidate Tracy Calogheros

Conservative Party candidate Todd Doherty

Green Party candidate Richard Jaques

Apolitical candidate Gordon Campbell

Rural communities are the economic engine of our country. We provide the resources and the food. We provide the wilderness that defines us in international tourism. We are an integral part of what Canada is. Our concerns must be heard.

Our issues must be addressed. We must have a seat at the table where policies are being written. By enhancing understanding, by building trust, and by providing federal funding where it’s appropriate and needed, a Liberal government will be a partner and a catalyst for community development.

candidate Todd Doherty

resource development creates jobs while benefiting small business. I want to ensure that our regional partners are aware of all opportunities and that they can take advantage of them, and I plan on being a member.

tating to the local farm economies in much the same way the Canadian Wheat Board’s demise hurt prairie grain producers. My personal philosophy of “Buy Canadian and buy local” will be my plan moving forward to safe guard the local Williams Lake producers.

Conservative Party

As a Member of Parliament, I can support a plan that looks to invest in rural infrastructure to help our communities access and create opportunities.

Early on, our Party announced that it would invest an additional $200,000 in rural high speed internet to help our communities connect to the rest of the world. The digital economy offers all our businesses, big and small, access to new markets and new opportunities. Rural communities also benefit from the development of our natural resources. Responsible

Green Party candidate Richard Jaques I would be the first the reject the Trans Pacific Trade deal being currently negotiated, it places our small/large farm producers in direct competition with multi-national corporations with little or no protection from the Canadian Government.

This would be devas-

Apolitical candidate Gordon Campbell It is too bad but a federal MP has little if any authority and zero spending power to improve or make any sort of deal about almost anything, let alone a rural economy such as Williams Lake’s and area.

First things first. Negotiate your own handto-mouth financial recipe because things cannot remain any longer as they stand today.

Your accumulated prosperity, which was and is dependent no longer on the 700 tonnes of gold they master-minded in a global recall of world currency, has been turned from a monetary system into a decimal point system.

The market is regulated to pay huge dividends based on tax scams, manipulations, rebates, AirMiles, points, gift cards, free stuff, etc. etc. etc.

Freedom of thought and association is what is at risk here in the Cariboo-Prince George riding and there is nothing your MP can do.

What is my apolitical mandate? It is deal or no deal that is the question being asked here on Oct. 19.

Unless there is full illumination and transparency of the “heathen” bar code then it’s no deal for us and yet the effect on all of us is negative.

Get out to vote

Canadians will head to the polls Monday to cast their ballots in the federal election.

It’s been a long haul. In fact, this election has been the longest campaign in recent history with Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper asking Gov. Gen David Johnston to dissolve Parliament Aug. 2 for a Monday.

Oct. 19 election.

In that time since, it has been an eventful campaign with voter support ebbing and flowing across the country between the Conservatives, Liberals and NDP, according to pollsters.

Facebook quotes and Twitter tweets have played dominant roles throughout the campaign, with all three leading parties experiencing candidate turmoil through their own missteps and blunders online.

Issues arising during the election have included, but are not limited to, such controversial topics as the Mike Duffy trial, the niqab, Canada’s stand on terrorism, the Syrian refugee crisis and, most recently, Canada’s role in the Trans-Pacific Partnership — a trade agreement between 12 Pacific Rim countries concerning

a variety of matters of economic policy five years in the making.

Child care, the legalization of marijuana, tough on crime legislation, taxes, climate change and defence spending are a few of the other hot topics that have dominated the election news headlines.

In our area, we have seven candidates vying for the CaribooPrince George riding who have taken part in various all-candidate forums throughout the region, the final being last night in Williams Lake.

Candidates have also weighed in on some of the issues throughout the last five publications of The Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

Some area residents already flexed their right to vote during advanced polling which took place on the Thanksgiving weekend while students across School District 27 have also been learning about the election this week.

Whether you are leaning left, right, centre or somewhere in between, there are many candidates to choose from in this election – most importantly just get out and vote.

VOTING DAY

Primary students from Alexis Creek School had an opportunity to vote this week. Students were very excited to participate in the process of voting, staff said.

- Williams Lake Tribune

Election routine instilled at a young age Students attending K-12 schools in Canada have the opportunity to participate in mock elections and have their votes tallied in a larger student vote tally.

The program has been going on for several years and in our district many schools participated in the student elections this week.

On Thursday morning I watched as students at Marie Sharpe elementary participated.

They registered to vote and then were given an official ballot marked “Student Vote” that listed all seven Cariboo-Prince George riding candidates.

To mark the candidate of their

the

weekend

choice, the students went behind an official Elections Canada cardboard screen.

Then as student officials observed them, the voters dropped their ballots in one of two officially marked election boxes.

Principal Calvin Dubray said he’s run the election program in schools for eight years.

He likes the idea because it is a good way to familiarize students with the process.

All vote results have to be sent in online by Friday, Oct. 16.

I agree with Mr. Dubray.

It is a great way to introduce students to voting.

When I was growing up my parents never told me who they voted for, but our home was not void of political discussions.

There were always plenty of debates.

Throughout the years our children have asked me who I was voting for and before I began working at a newspaper I would tell them without hesitating.

Now I keep that a secret because I believe that I am supposed to be neutral if I am covering politics.

Last month our 22-year-old son attended the all-candidates forum at TRU with me and said it was interesting.

He also told his dad and I we should watch CBC’s Peter Mansbridge’s one-on-one interviews with the federal leaders because he’d learned a lot from viewing them.

While the pages of this edition of the Weekend Advisor are rolling off the presses Thursday night I am hoping many of us are attending the all-candidates fo-

rum at the Pioneer Complex.

It will be the first time all seven of the candidates in our riding will have been together in Williams Lake.

By this time next week, I’ll have either Tracy Calogheros, Sheldon Clare, Gordon Campbell, Adam De Kroon, Trent Derrick, Todd Doherty or Richard Jaques on my list of contacts as our new MP. Judging from the promises made during the campaign, I am hoping to hear from our new MP on a regular basis.

Seeing the forest and the trees There was a flurry of excitement in the B.C. legislature last week, as Delta South independent MLA Vicki Huntington released documents suggesting that a multinational manufacturing company continued to buy up B.C. farms for carbon offsets after they said last June they would stop.

False alarm, as it turns out. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick clarified that three more farms in the Peace and Cariboo region had indeed been bought, but the company was merely following legal advice to close deals on farms that it had already agreed to purchase.

The company, British-based cleaning product and pharmaceutical maker Reckitt Benckiser (RB) confirmed this. A company official reiterated that its program to buy farms and replant them with trees is suspended.

By the time the B.C. government became aware of this global public relations scheme, thanks to the work of NDP MLA Lana Popham and others, about 10,000 hectares of farmland was already planted with seedlings. RB initially said they were buying up abandoned and unproductive farms, but local government officials disputed that.

RB soon realized that undermining already precarious farming communities was going to provide the opposite of the green publicity they sought, at least in B.C. The company told me it is now looking to switch its carbon offset program to replanting forest areas depleted by pine beetle and fire.

B.C. Views

with Tom Fletcher

I’ll believe that when I see it, but on the face of it, this sounds almost as questionable as converting farmland back to forests. Pine forests need fire to regenerate, so fires have been part of the regeneration of the ecosystem since the retreat of the last Ice Age. Beetle-kill areas are already coming back, and they were never completely denuded in any case, so the notion of manual planting these areas seems impractical.

Most are now criss-crossed with deadfall and all but impassible.

Another situation that received little public attention was a report issued late this summer by the B.C. Forest Practices Board about forest stewardship plans.

The board reviewed 43 stewardship plans from all regions of B.C., prepared as required under provincial law by forest tenure holders on Crown land. They are supposed to deal with things like where roads go and how streams are protected.

This is the management system put in place in 2003, when the B.C. Liberal government changed its

approach to forest management.

Gone was the NDP’s infamous seven-volume “Forest Practices Code,” which attempted to micromanage every detail of a timber licence, right down to inspecting for litter left at a logging site.

In came “results-based” forest management, where licence holders had to produce a plan showing stream protection and other values. The Forest Practices Board has found these plans often aren’t good for much, although results are generally good when they follow up with on-the-ground audits

of actual timber harvest areas.

The investigation found that many of the plans cover “vast and overlapping areas of the province, and were written using legal language that makes them very difficult for public understanding or review.” Little has changed since a similar finding in 2006.

During that time, the forests ministry was turned into Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, with greatly increased responsibility over wildlife, mining, gas drilling and so on.

Columbia River-Revelstoke

MLA Norm Macdonald, who traveled the province as NDP forests critic in recent years, says the problem now is there just aren’t enough people on the ground to assess what’s going on in our huge expanse of Crown land.

Meanwhile the city media covers professional protesters issuing demands about the Walbran Valley.

BUS LANE NEARING COMPLETION

Finishing touches are being added to the new bus loop on Third Avenue North adjacent to Marie Sharpe Elementary School.

Thanksgiving weekend all about gratitude Like most of you, we recently had a Thanksgiving dinner at one of our son’s and daughterin-law’s home.

I have memories of my dad’s siblings and their families gathering for such occasions when they all lived at 150 Mile House and Beaver Valley.

No family fighting, just good times and good food. And we would toast those absent.

This year our family enjoyed the company of friends (neighbours) and visitors from Britain and Australia. Thanksgiving was new to them, which reminded me that it is a North American celebration. Celebrating the harvest and giving thanks to the Creator for the bounty of the land was the original purpose of the holiday.

Ranch Musings

with David Zirnhelt

Frequently at dinner time, our grandchildren are encouraged to say what they are grateful for.

We all participate. It is a moment for reflection.

We read about this practice and it hit a chord. Yes, often young children are grateful for

things and treats, like ice cream, but they also are thankful for special people around them.

This year as the dinner hosts formally welcomed their guests, everyone around the table was invited to say a few words. Invariably, everyone was grateful for the company and the beautiful place we share.

Many foreign guests here remark about the special place, Beaver Valley. Many around the table were thankful for the food: bread, chicken, salads and vegetable dishes, pumpkins pies, all from our gardens and farmyard. One guest brought wild Lingonberry handpicked from the Yukon for the chicken. We didn’t get to pick wild cranberries. Next year!

Of particular note this year

was the homemade bread made from grains we grew. Threshing and cleaning the grain was a major weekend activity.

The leader of this activity was a daughter-in–law and son from Alberta, who grew the grain here, and experimented with some traditional varieties in order to learn what will grow on the ranch for human consumption. We grow a few acres of barley and peas to graze pigs on as a substitute for commercial organic feed, which is extremely expensive.

The trials this year were for human consumption.

How great tasting is bread from grain ground the same day the bread is baked! This experiment was a learning process for a beginning farmer. In a later

article I will report more on this.

I expressed my gratitude for all the food grown by the family.

Closing here, I am grateful for a partner and family who all believe in feeding the healthiest food to our grandchildren and ourselves.

Susan, my partner, is a great food producer, preserver and cook. She even canned tomatoes over the campfire when we lived in a tent in the early days. We are grateful for pristine farmland on which to grow the food.

David Zirnhelt is a member of the Cariboo Cattlemen’s Association and chair of the advisory committee for the Applied Sustainable Ranching program which is starting at Thompson Rivers University in Williams Lake this January.

Canadian Mental Health Cariboo Chilcotin Branch’s manager of family solutions program Bettina Egert (left) and manager of crisis and counselling Janice Breck (right) accept a donation in the amount of $20,000 from Keitha Fadenrecht, manager of the Source on behalf of Bell Let’s Talk Community Fund.

Mental health cared for through Bell Let’s Talk Community Fund Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Businesses and organizations in Williams Lake will be able to offer free mental health workshops through the Canadian Mental Health Association thanks to a $20,000 donation from the Bell Let’s Talk Community Fund.

“It will be unique,” said Bettina Egert, manager of the family solutions program at the Canadian Mental Health Association Cariboo Chilcotin Branch.

“The programs objective is that employees will be be allowed to participate in the workshops

during work hours. We can cover depression, anxiety and suicide prevention. We are open to any mental health topic.”

Egert credited stakeholders involved with Community Mental Health in the South and Central Cariboo for identifying mental health as a key factor in the region and assigning her and staff at CMHA South Cariboo to write the proposal.

“Cariboo Regional District directors Joan Sorley and Margo Wagner started the whole group and helped with the proposal,” she said.

Once the program is offered at a workplace, the

hope is employers will continue offering workshops and fund them.

“If people have good mental health they will be better at work,” Egert said, noting healthy employees benefit the entire community.

This year the Bell Let’s Talk community fund is supporting 55 organizations across Canada.

During the last five years, the fund has invested more than $5 million in hundreds of community programs and services that improve access to mental health care.

Last month Bell extended its commitment to the program for another five years.

Human trafficking session Oct. 20 Williams Lake Community Policing and the Williams Lake RCMP are pleased to announce that they will be hosting a Human Trafficking information session from 7 to 8:30 p.m., Tuesday Oct. 20 at the cafeteria of Thompson Rivers University in Williams Lake.

Guest presenters, Cpl. Jassy Bindra and Cst. Sharon Peters of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police will be the keynote speakers, giving an update on activities that have been happening in our province

as well as our community.

Human Trafficking involves the recruitment, transportation or harbouring of persons for the purpose of exploitation (typically in the sex industry or for forced labour).

Traffickers use various methods to maintain control over their victims, including force, sexual assault, threats of violence and physical or emotional abuse.

Human trafficking may occur across or within borders, may involve extensive organized crime networks,

and is clearly a violation of the basic human rights of its victims. The relationship between the trafficker and the victim is continuous and extends beyond the border crossing.

Victims may be forced into labour, prostitution or some other form of servitude.

Victims may suffer abuse from their traffickers and may face severe consequences if they attempt to escape.

BOOKS

Your Preschooler and… Books Helping your child learn to enjoy books is crucial.

There is a strong link between what preschoolers know about books, words, sounds and letters and their readiness for school. At three years old, your child will typically have an increasing interest in books and the written word. Preschoolers need to be encouraged to love books. You should enjoy sharing books with your child, but don’t try to teach reading at age three.

Some children will learn naturally on their own, but most children won’t start actual reading until they are in Kindergarten or Grade 1. Make sure your child doesn’t get frustrated. Encourage questions and use humour. Over time, encourage your preschooler to help tell the stories in books, particularly with favourite ones. Read for fun, with your child and on your own.

Try some of these with your preschooler: 1. Set aside a special time each day to read to your child. Pick a special spot in your home where it is quiet and you and your preschooler are comfortable.

2. When sharing books, ask questions about the pictures: “Where do you think the woman is going?”

Pause to discuss the meanings of new words.

3. Snuggle with your preschooler while you read. By feeling safe and nurtured, your child will learn more easily.

4. Encourage your child to select and look at books on their own. Sit down beside your child and read your own book to show that books are enjoyable.

5. Encourage repetition. There will be favourite books your child will want to look at over and over again.

Being familiar with words and letters helps children learn.

6. Get your preschooler a library card. Go to the library regularly and explore the children’s section together. Encourage your child to choose books to take out.

7. Plan a book exchange party. Invite your child’s friends and their parents over and ask them to bring fi ve books they want to trade. It’s a good way to have different books at home without spending too much.

8. Introduce books into your day-to-day activities.

Have a reading picnic, play dress up and act out a book, or read your recipe out loud as you cook or prepare food with your child.

9. Share books that show people of different cultures, genders, ages and abilities.

A Message to Apolitical Canadians

5

QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF BEFORE VOTING ON MONDAY

1 2 3 4 5

Can we be the only modern nation to turn our backs on progress - and shut out the international, poor world around us?

What group, other than an Apolitical x can effectively represent Canada in the world? I say a small group of politicians should not be making important decisions for so many people without having x consulted them as individuals first.

Who, aside from YOU and your family’s circulation of points and Air Miles has the competence, the team of x , the will, and the plan to maintain the prosperity YOU, as an Apolitical Canadian have not enjoyed since 1984?

Which party and team do you trust to handle your Nation’s finances responsibly? You might be Apolitical, or one of us, if you think you can spend it better by doing it yourself.

Can any politician or political party match the experiences and the emotional roller coaster ride of men, women, and children of all walks of life standing proud as PC - Poor Canadians without that extra option? The ‘beef’ of the issue is “there is no choice”, so NO DEAL.

TO HELP BUILD A STRONGER CANADA THERE IS ONLY ONE CHOICE

She says many people in the community are struggling with some form of mental illness and need the help and support of the community.

Nurse and mental health care worker Colleen Crossley says the event will raise awareness about mental illness, local resources and efforts to co-ordinate services for clients.

“I know how very important family support is, working in mental health for 25 years, and the importance of a team approach rather than anyone trying to handle it all alone,” Crossley says.

Latin says vendors will include yoga instructors, essential oils providers, and more.

The event Sunday kicks off a week-long semicolon tattoo fundraiser Latin is hosting at her Exposed Expressions Tattoo Studio in the Delainey’s Centre Mall on Oliver Street.

She and her vol-

unteer helper, Lacey Ranger, are designing small and large semicolon tattoos that people can have done to show their support for people with mental illness. The tattoos will range in price from $60 to $120.

Fifty per cent of the

funds raised will be donated to local mental health helping agencies in the community.

“It is an issue near and dear to my heart and why I really wanted to do it,” Latin says.

“For the week to follow I will be doing semicolon tattoos all week long.”

The semicolon fundraising campaign runs from Monday, Oct. 19 through Saturday, Oct. 24. For more information call Latin at 778412-2863.

Project Semicolon was founded in the spring of 2013, by Amy Bleuel who wanted to honour her father who she lost to suicide.

Through the semicolon symbol many people related to the struggle of depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide and their will to continue on.

The title, Project Semicolon, and the semicolon itself represent a goal to believe that a mental illness doesn’t have to be the end but a new beginning.

book with an illustrated slide show and talk about the painter.

Solloum says the owner of the Westbridge Fine Art Gallery in Vancouver which carries work suggested that she write a book about the artist but it wasn’t until she attended a wedding at Little Lake near Likely that she was convinced to do so.

She met David and Susan Zirnhelt at the wedding who had great praise for Sonia and her work. Then she was fortunate to be able to spend some time at Jones Lake Ranch where Sonia lived and see for herself the scenes that inspired her work.

Unfortunately she says she never had the opportunity to meet the artist who passed away in 2006.

“I think she is one of the most important early artists from the Interior,” Solloum says.

Independent and driven, rancher and artist Sonia Cornwall developed a distinct style that captured the nuances of B.C.’s rugged interior in oils,

The Honourable Judith Guichon, Lieutenant-Governor of B.C., describes Sonia’s paintings as “very real, warm, alive.”

After Sonia Cornwall’s father died in 1939, her mother inherited the Onward Ranch and a huge debt.

To make the ranch viable, a 19-year-old

Dipnetting with Dad nets Moonbean Awards gold medal Dipnetting with Dad, written by Willie Sellars and illustrated

by Kevin Easthope, has won the Gold Medal for Moonbeam Award’s Best First Picture Book.

The Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards are an international award for children’s books published

in English or Spanish.

The awards are intended to bring increased recognition to exemplary children’s books and their creators, and to celebrate children’s books and life-long reading.

Dipnetting with Dad, a B.C. Bestseller, continues to reach young readers and was also a

2014 Ontario Library Association “Best Bet” and was shortlisted for a Shining Willow Award and a Chocolate Lily Award.

In his first book, Williams Lake Indian Band councillor Sellars tells the story of dip net fishing with his dad and uncles. and their visits to a sweat lodge.

Debut artist Kevin Easthope’s contemporary and dynamic illustrations bring the characters to life as they jump off the page and pull you into their world.

Illustrator Easthope was born and raised in Williams Lake and attended UBC Okanagan where he gradu-

Sonia traded paintbrush for pitchfork, labouring alongside the male ranch hands. But after marrying Hugh Cornwall in 1947, Sonia had time for painting once again.

She learned techniques from some of Canada’s most celebrated artists who came to visit the Onward Ranch, and later her home at the Jones Lake Ranch, such as Peter Aspell, Molly Bobak, Jack Hardman, Herbert Siebner, Group of Seven member A.Y. Jackson, Joe Plaskett, Cliff Robinson and Zeljko Kujundic.

Tales from renowned Cariboo Chilcotin personalities bring Sonia’s story to life.

Joseph Plaskett said of artist Sonia Cornwall that she “goes beyond landscape and draws inspiration from human activity on the land ... Sonia, by the strength of her feelings, has created a powerful art.”

Salloum was born and raised in B.C. and for 10 years called the Cariboo home. She graduated from Simon

Fraser University and taught in the public school and college systems. A freelance writer for more than 25 years, she has published articles in several Canadian magazines and is the author of three books, including The Life and Art of Mildred Valley Thornton (Mother Tongue, 2011), Underlying Vibrations: The Photography and Life of John Vanderpant (Horsdal & Schubart, 1995) and Malcolm Lowry: Vancouver Days (Harbour Publishing, 1987).

She has been a finalist for two BC Book Prizes: the Hubert Evans Non-Fiction Prize and the Roderick Haig-Brown Regional Prize.

LOCAL COMMUNITY

Dwarfism awareness raised by Horsefly resident Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Riley Windeler doesn’t let his small stature stand in his way.

The 25-year-old Horsefly resident, who has a form of shortlimbed dwarfism called Hypochondroplasia, wants to share the challenges and opportunities he’s faced in his life growing up and living in the Cariboo as part of October’s Dwarfism Awareness Month.

“The main thing is we may be smaller and not physically the same but we can still do the same things with adaptations as everyone else, and we want to be treated the same as everyone else,” Windeler said.

Growing up going to school in Horsefly was an enjoyable experience, he said, noting everyone in the small town knew each other, accepted him for who he was and was friendly.

It wasn’t until he moved on to high school in Williams Lake when Windeler began getting picked on by his peers.

“There was lots of bullying,” he said.

“Mostly the term ‘midget,’ which we consider

Since high school, Windeler has gone on to obtain a human services diploma from Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops and now works as an educational assistant at Horsefly Elementary/Junior Secondary School.

As an adult, however, the looks, the stares and the discrimination still creep their way into his life on a daily basis.

“It’s an every day thing,” he said. “But af-

ter a while you learn to ignore it.”

Finding work is also a struggle many little people face, he said.

“As I got older obtaining work and jobs became a challenge,” he said.

“Employers don’t always see you as being able, they see you as being different and think you won’t be able to fulfill the job to its description.”

But with adaptations, like the ones Windeler

uses on his brake, gas pedal and seat to drive a vehicle, most jobs and tasks can be easily accomplished, he said.

His size has granted him the opportunity to travel around North America and to educate people about dwarfism.

Windeler is an avid sports fan, the president of the Little People of BC and the vicepresident of the Dwarf Athletic Association of Canada.

He attends the Little

People of America National Conference every summer — the most recent in St. Louis last year — alongside roughly 3,000 other little people.

He also competes as a member of Team Canada and on various teams in Dwarf Athletic Association of America events playing volleyball and soccer, among other sports.

Windeler is a member of Little People Big World star and friend

Zach Roloff’s soccer team and appeared on the TV show in 2007 and 2008. He credited the program with bringing awareness about dwarfism to the forefront of mainstream media.

He also worked with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) legend Mick Foley (Mankind, Cactus Jack) during his comedy show in Salmon Arm last year as a referee in a skit involving Hulk Hogan.

His experiences, his friends and those who accept him have allowed him to continue to keep a positive outlook and he continues to be an advocate for people with dwarfism in his day-to-day life.

“We’re all the same,” he said.

“That’s the biggest thing. We may look different but inside we’re the same as everyone else.”

Celebrating 85 years of The Tribune

Old Tribune building burns The Williams Lake Fire Department is still investigating the cause of a blaze discovered in the old Tribune building at 282 Oliver Street on Tuesday evening.

The entire 34-man volunteer fire department fought the fire for over an hour before extinguishing it. A janitor leaving an adjacent building reported the blaze after noticing smoke escaping from the doors and windows of the structure.

The fire alarm sounded at 8:20 p.m., Tuesday, and was the second fire call to reach the firemen already at the fire hall for their regular Tuesday night

practice.

Firemen earlier answered a call from the A & W where a car was reported to be on fire. That proved

to be a false alarm.

Firemen reported “a fair amount of structural damage” to the elderly structure, vacant since

early August and scheduled for demolition.

Mill layoffs Cutbacks at Merrill & Wagner Ltd., effective next week, will affect 100 employees to some extent, president Bob Smith told The Tribune Monday.

The veneer plant will drop to one shift, five days a week, resulting in layoffs of about 40 workers. The sawmill will run two shifts four days a week, which will mean one less day of work each week for 60 employees, Smith said. The situation will be assessed every two weeks, so as soon as market, conditions improve the mill can return to normal production, he said.

• PUBLISHED IN THE WILLIAMS LAKE TRIBUNE 1970s •

Cariboo Park Home plans personal care unit Plans have been approved and all is ready to go on a proposed 47 bed personal and intermediate care unit planned by the Cariboo park Home Society.

The present 22 unit home on Fourth Avenue is self-contained and residents are on their own for cooking laundry and other services At the present time, when senior citizens cannot cope on their own any longer there is nowhere in the immediate area for them to go.

The proposed addition to the home will provide room and board for those that need it as well as personal care and special services for the handicapped.

The society has approved plans which incorporate three levels of care in one centralized location.

“When people who have been living at the home can no longer look after themselves, they can move across the lobby into the new unit and no one will have to leave their friends and relatives,” says building committee chairman Terry lssigonis.

The addition will include five double units, five special units for the handicapped (those in

wheelchairs) and there will be an elevator between floors. On the lower level, a sauna, large recreation room and hobby rooms are planned.

The dining room, a large lounge opening onto a patio, the manager’s suite and some bedroom units will be on the main level with the remainder of the bedroom units occupying the top floor.

The proposed unit will have the services of a registered nurse and aides to provide personal care, and there will be a nursing station on each of the two upper levels.

The cost of the new home, estimated as of September, 1974, is $854,392. The provincial government provides one third of the amount through a grant, and the balance will have to be picked up by mortgaging through CMHC. Cariboo Park Home Society, with the help of the community, will be responsible for all furnishings, and the society will be looking to all service clubs in the area for fund raising assistance.

Working with Issigonis on the building are Ray Woods, Pat Bass,

Goaltender Griffen Outhouse, 17, of Likely joins the Western Hockey League’s Victoria Royals this season after leading the BC Major Midget League’s Cariboo Cougars to a remarkable season last year.

SPORTS NOTEBOOK Saturday, Oct. 17

Stampeders host Tomahawks The Williams Lake Stampeders host the Lac La Hache Tomahawks this Saturday, Oct. 17 at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.

In three outings this season the Stamps have two wins and a loss and sit in first place in the Central Interior Hockey League’s East Division.

Puck drop is 7:30 p.m.

Outhouse cracks WHL’s Victoria Royals roster Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Griffen Outhouse wants to prove himself in the Western Hockey League.

That’s after the 17-yearold goaltender from Likely recently found out he’d made the WHL’s Victoria Royals’ roster and will be staying for the team’s 2015/16 campaign.

“It was exciting to find out I was going to stick there for the year,” Outhouse said.

“Now there’s a bigger challenge ahead of me and that’s showing that I can play in this league.”

Last January Outhouse helped lead the BC Major Midget League’s Prince George-based Cariboo Cougars to a Mac’s Midget AAA World Invitational Tournament championship.

He finished the regular season with 15 wins, five losses and two ties, with a 2.04 goals against average.

Just three months prior, he had been signed by the Royals.

“It’s definitely a big jump from the BCMML and the coaches I had there pre-

pared me well,” Outhouse said, noting he’s settling in nicely with his new teammates.

“The guys here are great.

All the staff are the best in the league at what they do.”

Royals’ head coach Dave Lowry said there’s no denying Outhouse is a very good goalie and worthy of an opportunity to play in the WHL. “He’s a good kid and he’s a student of the game,” Lowry said. “He wants to get better and that’s what we’re looking for in players we keep. We want guys that want to come to work every day and work on their game and try to get better.”

Outhouse will be playing behind Royals’ starting goaltender Coleman Vollrath, a 20-year-old, fouryear veteran of the WHL. Vollrath’s experience will be a valuable tool in Outhouse’s development.

“Coleman is a great guy,” Outhouse said. “He helps me both on and off the ice every day.”

Lowry agrees, noting Vollrath is a consumate professional.

Thursday, Oct. 22 and Friday, Oct. 23 Monster Mash Pool Bash

The Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex is hosting two spooky swims — a Monster Mash Pool Bash — Thursday evening, Oct. 22, and during the Pro D Day on Friday, Oct. 23.

Thursday between 7 and 9 p.m. will be a Tween Night.

Friday is an everyone welcome swim from 7:30 to 8 p.m.

Regular admission rates apply.

Sunday, Oct. 25 Snow Quest

“The big thing with Griff here with Coleman is he’s going to see how it’s done the right way in terms of preparation and work ethic,” Lowry said. “Not only how you work in practice but how you prepare on game days … he’s a very good mentor for a young goalie.”

Outhouse has yet to see a start this season during the team’s blazing 7-1 start the campaign, however, Lowry said he will get a chance to display his skills this season.

“The guys and coaches are happy about the 7-1 start but we can’t take our foot off the pedal,” Outhouse said.

“We need to keep moving on every game and bring our best out every night.

“Right now I can’t worry about when I’ll get my first start. Coleman has been hot and the team has been good in front of him. I just need to be patient and make sure I’m prepared when the time comes.”

The Williams Lake Powder Kings Snowmobile Club is hosting a Snow Quest Snow Show and Sign Up Sunday, Oct. 25 at the Ramada Convention Centre.

Door prizes, bucket draws, dealer displays and the exclusive screening of Braap 15 are among the festivities planned.

There will be a cash bar and snacks after 6 p.m.

Snow Quest runs from noon until 5:30 p.m.

-Youth week for their first car.

-Students wait for graduation.

-Gals wait to meet Mr. Right.

-Couples wait for their first child.

There are harder waits that we are faced with, too: -Waiting for surgery date.

-Waiting for cancer test result.

Junior archery program aims at teaching all levels Greg Sabatino Staff Writer

Young archers in Williams Lake have an opportunity to learn from some of the country’s best.

Now in its third week of the season, the Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association’s Junior Olympic Archery Program (JOAP) has opportunities for all ability levels.

Instructed by Al Campsall — a member of Team Canada and multi-time national compound bow champion — and longtime recurve bow specialist Ed Oliver, students meet at the WLSA clubhouse once a week.

JOAP classes are broken down into two sessions every Thursday evening — one from 5 to 6:30 p.m. and

another from 6:30 until 8 p.m. Participants can choose which class they wish to attend.

And as Campsall can attest to, learning archery can lead to a lifelong passion for the sport.

“Archery is a lifelong sport,” Campsall said.

“You can be a competitor, or you can be someone who enjoys shooting for your own enjoyment. You don’t have to compete.”

One of the key elements Campsall said the JOAP focuses on is archery safety.

“We teach archery skills, how to do it safely, how to shoot a bow for accuracy and how to shoot a bow for enjoyment,” he said.

“We’ve got kids who are Canadian champions, we’ve got kids who are Canadian record holders and also

Last year 55 archers took part in the JOAP. Campsall expects to reach similar numbers this season.

The JOAP, ran through the B.C. Archery Association by the WLSA, goes for six months from now until the end of March.

The cost, meanwhile, is relatively inexpensive, Campsall said.

“We have archery gear for the kids to start with,” he said.

“You don’t have to show up and spend a bunch of money.

“I’d say it’s one of the cheapest sports in town.”

Anyone interested in signing up for the JOAP can simply show up at the WLSA clubhouse on Bond Lake Road during either of the two sessions Thursdays.

Campsall and Oliver have been running the program for the past five years after resurrecting it following several years of inactivity.

into the middle of the empty net at the far end and some 479 fans rose and cheered the last nail being hammered into the coffin of the Columbia Valley Rockies at the South Cariboo Rec. Centre on Oct. 10.

The empty net goal was the final exclamation point in an exciting 5-2 win by the 100 Mile House Wranglers, the local club’s second at home in as many nights, having clipped the Sicamous Eagles 5-1 on Oct. 9.

Zane Steeves was a wall, the offence found ways and the defence barely budged.

The play was “greasy” at times though, especially against Sicamous, says 100 Mile House coach Dale Hladun, which was a concern.

But for the most part the local club showed a good balance between the ruggedness it’s known for and the unnecessary stick-involved penalties it’s trying to get away from, easing

We do have a reputation out there. Teams know [about our will to win.]”

- 100 Mile Wranglers head coach Dale Hladun off some on the number of bad penalties that were driving the coach nuts two weeks ago.

“I don’t mind penalties of battle,” Hladun makes clear. “If you’re part of the battle, and it’s a [roughing penalty], if it’s a charge, that kind of stuff, I get. It’s the penalties away from the play — a misconduct, a trip, a behind the play thing [I don’t get].”

Hladun adds he’s really impressed with the boys’ will to win.

“We do have a reputation out there. Teams know.”

The Wranglers host

the Osoyoos Coyotes on Oct. 16 and travel to Sicamous on Oct. 17.

Hladun mentions a few roster moves ahead of the weekend, including the return of thirdyear Kootenay International Junior Hockey League veteran Michael Lynch.

The Smithers talent scored 14 goals and 21 assists in 49 regular season games in 2014-15 and added 13 points in the playoffs. Defenceman Mason Palaga was moved to Chase for future considerations and the Wranglers expect to sign goalie Adam Dero-

In Search Of......

Pictures of your friends and loved ones who served Canada during war times, or are currently serving in the Canadian Armed Forces.

The Tribune will honour all of our War Heroes who served to defend our land, Canada.

Our freedoms and rights that we cherish, we owe to them.

In recognition of them we will publish their pictures in a Remembrance Day Supplement in our November 6, 2015 edition.

Deadline for submission of pictures is October 23rd, 2015.

Photos must be submitted each year to ensure room for new submissions.

We urge you to dig through those old photo albums and bring your pictures and a brief 20 word history along with years of service to The Tribune 188 N 1st Avenue, Williams Lake, BC V2G 1Y8. or e-mail: gaylene@wltribune.com We can reproduce black and white or colour photos up to 8 ½” x 11”.

Please write name and phone number on back of each picture.

Pictures can be picked up after November 11, 2015.

chie, a six-foot Maple Ridge talent who played with the Vancouver North East Chiefs last season in the British Columbia Major Midget League.

Tavis Roch won star of the game against the Rockies. Brady Ward, Tate Page, Roch and Bond (2) scored goals.

Assists went to Cole Zimmerman, Stephen Egan, Brett Harris (2), Ryan Friesen, Williams Lake’s Tyler Povelofskie and Nick McCabe.

Five hundred and seventeen fans were in attendance when the Wranglers beat the Eagles on Oct. 9. Liam Cumberbirch won star of the game for the Wranglers. Jaydon Gilding, Bond, Alex Meeker, Cumberbirch and Friesen scored. McCabe, Bond, Meeker (2), Kyle Lindstrom and Egan got assists. Steeves turned away 32 shots.

Veteran forward Brett Harris, a 100 Mile talent, is currently tied for eighth in the league in points per game (1.8).

He’s working in Kamloops full time so his practice and conditioning time during the week is limited. But the 20-year-old is confident and comfortable in his fourth KIJHL season, being “the old guy in the league”, having played six of the team’s 10 games so far.

Harris is finding teammates with the puck and they’re burying it and giving him great looks, too. A knee injury from last season isn’t hindering him.

The team’s chemistry is good early in the season, he says, and he likes the direction of the club.

“We have four lines we can roll every night.

We have solid goaltending and a solid D-core.

I can’t see too many weaknesses with this team.”

LOCAL NEWS

New dock improves angling access to area lake Williams Lake anglers will be able to enjoy fishing more easily and more often thanks to the installation of a new fishing dock at Reservoir Lake.

Now everyone — from avid anglers who wish to fit in a quick hour of fishing to new anglers who don’t have access to a boat — will be able to enjoy fishing on the lake.

Accessed from the small Cariboo Highway rest stop four and a half kilometres from Williams Lake, the dock installation coincides with fall fishing season when fish are more catchable from a dock as trout move on to the shoals to feed. The Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC (FFSSBC) Society annually stocks Reservoir Lake with 3,000 fingerling rainbow trout.

“Adding dock access to Reservoir Lake is an exciting step for us in removing barriers for people wishing to enjoy the angling experience,” said Dana Atagi, vice-president of the FFSBC. “A dock allows people to be catching fish in less time and with less expense and we hope more people will give it a try.”

As of April 1, 2015, under a new agreement with the provincial government, the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC receives 100 per cent of fishing licence revenue to invest in infrastructure and services to support freshwater fishing in B.C. With the increased revenue, the Society is investing in additional research and infrastructure projects across the province, including new docks to make access to angling easier.

Easier access to popular fishing spots and

stocked lakes supports the Society’s goal to reduce barriers to the sport of angling, resulting in greater angler participation.

To further reduce barriers to the sport, rods and gear are available to borrow for free from the Williams Lake Visitor Centre.

Jointly sponsored by the FFSBC, Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation and Rapala, the Rod Loan Program gives interested

individuals or groups an opportunity to try angling before investing in rods and tackle.

It also makes angling available to visi-
