Obituary Tribute

Michael John Anatooshkin May 27, 1927 ~ November 7,2015

Car vs. building RCMP were called to the scene of a motor vehicle incident on the 200 Block of Reid Street at 12:34 p.m.

Thursday for a report that a car had struck the front of a building. The investigation revealed the driver was parking the vehicle and accidentally pressed the gas pedal, causing the vehicle to jump the curb and strike the building, causing considerable damage. Nobody was injured in the building and the driver and two passengers were checked by B.C. Ambulance personnel and released at the scene. The investigation continues.

RCMP capture McLean Thursday around 9 a.m. Quesnel RCMP officers attended a call for service in the South Hills area of the city.

While on scene, one of the officers noticed a man matching Gerald McLean’s description approach the area and immediately upon seeing police, changed directions and headed back into a wooded area behind Cody

Dale Road.

Officers set up a perimeter in the area and called upon other Detachment resources to assist in the search.

Officers converged on the wooded area and were able to locate and arrest McLean without incident.

“I would like to thank all our media partners and citizens of Quesnel for their assistance and trust in the RCMP during

the time McLean was at large in our community,” Sgt. Darren Dodge, who supervised the capture, said.

It is expected that McLean will be transported to PGRCC later today by the BC Sheriffs Services. The Quesnel GIS are investigating several files that may have involved McLean, including thefts and break

Remembering And Supporting All Veterans In 1974, as an eighteen-year-old Navy signalman, I was shocked when we were informed our ship, the HMCS MacKenzie, was going to slip lines and leave Japan despite the fact that a major typhoon was set to hit the country’s coastline. We were told that sailing into the stormy waters would be good experience for us. It was a brutal and frightening “experience;” one that resulted in damage to our ship and lots of bumps and bruises among the crew.

So, it was with some relief that I got a satellite phone call from my son a few weeks ago during which he assured us that his ship, the HMCS Calgary, had stayed north of Hurricane Patricia. He’s on extended sea duty somewhere in the Pacific off San Diego and I’d been having visions of a gung-ho Captain deciding it would be great to take the ship and its crew into the strongest storm ever recorded -- for the “experience.”

This Remembrance Day I’m conscious of how fortunate am I that during my time in the Navy the only thing I had to worry about was riding out storms at sea. I hope that’s the only thing I have to concern myself with during the remainder of my son’s time in the Navy as well.

But, for too many generations, too many parents, spouses and children of service men and women have had more serious things to worry about as their loved ones were put in harms way by the powers that be to serve some greater public good. Today, we pause to reflect and remember these individuals and the debt we owe to them and to their families.

Quesnel should be particularly thoughtful and proud this Remembrance Day as one of our local veterans, Paul Nichols, and his wife Terry have just completed an incredible journey across our nation on horseback to raise awareness of veterans issues. Over six thousand kilometers and 150 days, Paul and Terry made community after community aware of our contemporary veterans and of the need to improve services for all those who have served our nation in uniform.

On behalf of Quesnel City Council, I want to express how proud we all are of the efforts of Paul and Terry and the incredible support crew that accompanied them on the road and supported them from home. It is our sincere hope that the new government in Ottawa will listen carefully to the stories and messages that the Communities For Veterans Ride Across Canada heard in community after community.

Our veterans of all wars deserve more than mere remembrance, they also deserve more deliberate and long lasting support from the government and nation that they served.

Honouring our veterans

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall gets his annual flu shot.

B.C. government photo

Influenza vaccine now available TOM FLETCHER Black Press This year’s influenza vaccine is available at doctors’ offices, public health clinics and pharmacies across B.C. Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall said the main flu season runs from late November through to next April, and cases of H3N2 influenza are

already showing up.

That strain affects mainly older people, while influenza B is expected to show up by February and spread among children.

The vaccine is is free for children between six months and five years, seniors aged 65 and older, pregnant women, aboriginal people and those with chronic health conditions, as well as

caregivers and others who expect to be in close contact with higher-risk groups.

About 3,500 people die in Canada each winter from influenza and its complications, with hospital and residential care patients the most vulnerable. Kendall said influenza causes more deaths than all other vaccinepreventable illnesses combined.

Three B.C. ministers in cabinet Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has appointed three rookie B.C. MPs to his new cabinet, all from the Lower Mainland.

Vancouver South MP Harjit Sajjan, a former Lieutenant-Colonel in the Canadian Forces who served three tours in Afghanistan, is the new Minister of Defence. He was a Vancouver Police officer for 11 years before running for Parliament in the Oct. 19 election.

Vancouver-Granville MP Jody Wilson-Raybould, another firsttime candidate elected to the new riding of Vancouver-Granville, is appointed Justice Minister. WilsonRaybould is a former Crown prosecutor and served as B.C. regional chief for the Assembly of First Nations before running for national office. Delta MP Carla Qualtrough is appointed minister for Sport and Persons with Disabilities. A lawyer

and specialist in disabilities who is visually impaired, Qualtrough won three medals in swimming at the 1988 and 1992 Paralympic Games.

B.C. Premier Christy Clark congratulated the new B.C. MPs, part of a contingent of 17 elected with the Liberal majority in Ottawa.

“I am pleased to see British Columbia will be well represented at the cabinet table,” Clark said in a statement Wednesday. “I know ministers Jody Wilson-Raybould, Harjit Sajjan and Carla Qualtrough will be strong, passionate advocates not just for our province, but for our shared priorities, like renewing the Softwood Lumber Agreement, LNG development, increasing support for international trade, investing in infrastructure and immigration, as well as fully including First Nations in our diverse economy.”

This year’s vaccine is expected to provide 40 to 60 per cent protection against H3N2 and 65 per cent protection against various strains of influenza B. “The annual flu vaccine is still the best tool we have to protect against getting the flu,” said Dr. Charles Webb, president of the Doctors of B.C. “Combined

with regular hand washing, you are also protecting those around you who may be more vulnerable to serious flu complications.”

To find the nearest flu shot clinic, call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1 or use the online influenza clinic finder at www. immunizebc.ca/ clinics/flu.

Have you been following the Ride Across Canada? There is no greater example of the work of today’s veterans than The Communities For Veterans - Ride Across Canada campaign initiated by our very own veteran Paul Nichols and his wife Terry. In April, I was honoured to be part of their step-off from the Legislature grounds in Victoria. For the past eight months these two, their daughter Kirsten, and their team have been leading a band of veterans across the country to help raise awareness about the physical and mental health challenges veterans can face when they return from battle.

To date, Paul has rode 18-year-old Zoe more than 6,000 kilometers and has reached in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

During their journey over 320 veterans have joined the ride and they have connected with thousands more.

They have had more than 320 veterans ride with them so far and have connected with thousands more. They have spoken with tens of thousands of civilians and serving members of the Canadian military along the way. There is no doubt in my mind that the work of Paul and Terry and their crew is not only reshaping the profile of today’s veteran, but also influencing how the nation can better support veterans in transitioning from military life to civilian life.

This Remembrance Day, we have so much to be grateful for. We have the Canada we love because of the men and women who serve and sacrifice for us.

I encourage you to reflect on their sacrifice and and remember those who have served and those who continue to serve.

The next time you see veterans out in our community, thank them for their service.

The community is hosting a homecoming for Paul and his wife Terry Nichols at the Quesnel Seniors’ Centre on December 10. Tickets are $25 each at Circle S Western Wear and the Kersley Store.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and dinner starts at 6 p.m. I hope to see you there!

Lest we forget

A

s war has changed in indescribable ways over the last century, the face of our Remembrance Day ceremonies is changing too.

Gone are the veterans of the First World War and ever dwindling are those Second World War and Korean War veterans whose stories are so entrenched in our collective Canadian consciousness.

Yet we must continue to honour and recognize – to remember – those sacrifices that helped define and shape our history and culture.

At the same time, we recognize the tremendous contributions of those who have stepped forward to serve their country and have given much in recent conflicts, in addition to those men and women – husbands, fathers, mothers and daughters – who have helped bring peace to war-ravaged countries around the world.

Our commemoration on Nov. 11 is not about glorifying war; far from it. There is no question that the world would be a far better place were soldiers and armies no longer needed.

However, the reality is that at present, the world is not that place.

And so this Remembrance Day we give thanks to those who have laid down their lives, to those who have left loved ones in Canada to try to do some good a world away, and to those who fought and returned, forever changed.

To those here on the homefront, from Second World War victory gardeners to parents and children who wave good-bye from the dock to today’s Armed Forces members, you too deserve our thanks for what is, too often, a thankless job.

We take a moment today to remember all of those sacrifices and the many more besides.

Thank you.

Conservation officers a thin green line

T

he B.C. government declared the first Conservation Officer Day on Nov. 4, to recognize the 110-year history of the service that started out as mostly volunteer “game wardens.”

This is overdue recognition for what is essentially a police force that only receives public notice when a bear or cougar has to be killed to protect people.

The ceremony at the B.C. legislature included awards.

Chief Conservation Officer Doug Forsdick presented long-service medals and two commendations for lifesaving.

One was to CO Jason Hawkes, who rescued a family of four from their sinking boat on Kootenay Lake last June. He reached them in rough, windy conditions when they were waist-deep in water, far from shore.

The other went to CO Andrew Anaka, for rescuing an angler from an overturned boat, whom he found “extremely hypothermic” at the base of a cliff at a lake near Powell River on Jan. 22. A second angler didn’t make it to shore.

An exemplary service

Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views medal went to CO Micah Kneller, who caught up with Fort Nelson RCMP officers and paramedics on Sept.

6, as they treated a hunter who had been attacked by a grizzly in a remote area. As darkness fell, Kneller found a second injured hunter, got the group together, built a fire and assisted until a rescue helicopter from CFB Comox lifted the hunters out at 3 a.m.

NDP environment critic Spencer Chandra Herbert had a couple of things on his mind at the event.

He relayed a report from the B.C. Government Employees’ Union that there has been a 10 per cent cut in CO staff since 2002.

Not so, replied Environment Minister Mary Polak. The number has “hovered around 148” in that time, she said, including seasonal staff for peak

of what Bennett called “religious zeal” for privatization.

The society spends most of its budget restocking lakes with trout and promoting responsible angling, but its new 30-year service contract also calls on it to contribute to enforcement.

This is the first year that has happened, and Polak said the extra fishing violation tickets indicate it is working.

The CO service also works on cases such as the Mount Polley mine breach. It has a commercial environmental enforcement unit, a special investigations unit to deal with smuggling and organized crime and an intelligence analyst.

In short, they’re real cops, working with a group of about 150 compliance officers at the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

They don’t get much respect from an urban public informed by celebrity wildlife protesters such as Pamela Anderson, Miley Cyrus and Ricky Gervais.

hunting and fishing periods.

Polak said extra investment has gone into trucks that serve as mobile command centres, so people aren’t sitting in offices waiting for the phone to ring.

They patrol more and respond faster, which can be vital.

Chandra Herbert also blasted the government for a “donation” of $100,000 from the Freshwater Fishing Society of B.C. to increase angling enforcement this summer, adding more seasonal CO days. “What’s next, bake sales?” he said.

The real story is a bit more complicated.

In March I reported that the B.C. Liberal government finally made good on a decade-old promise to turn over all revenue from freshwater fishing licence sales to the society.

Its revenue went from $7 million to $10 million once the government finally ended the practice of skimming some off for the general treasury.

Energy Minister Bill Bennett recalled that the society was established during the first years of Gordon Campbell’s government, a period

ICBC launches campaign Last week ICBC launched its annual pedestrian safety campaign with the B.C. Coroners Service, B.C. government and police to urge pedestrians and drivers to do their part to stay safe as crashes involving pedestrians spike at this time of year.

Almost two times more pedestrians are injured in crashes from November to January compared to June to August as the weather changes and daylight hours decrease.

The top contributing factors attributed to drivers in crashes with pedestrians are: distraction, failure to yield the right of way and weather.

Drivers should take extra time to look for pedestrians before turning, avoid distractions and be ready to yield.

Pedestrians can help stay safe by making eye contact, wearing bright and reflective clothing and staying focused on the road.

ICBC is distributing free safety reflectors and tips to pedestrians with the help of community policing volunteers and other local partners throughout B.C. ICBC’s campaign will feature new radio advertising aimed at drivers and transit advertising aimed at pedestrians in the highest pedestrian crash areas of the province, along with online digital advertising.

Learn more stats and facts in ICBC’s infographic and get more tips and see the advertising on icbc.com.

“It’s the fall, and that means the evenings get darker quicker and we can expect more bad weather such as rain and fog and more treacherous road conditions, such as ice and snow,” Todd Stone, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, said.

“These are all good reasons to be especially cautious and look out for pedestrians.

As drivers, we need to quit making excuses for not seeing pedestrians by staying focused.”

Brianna Kinnear’s mother, along with her daughter’s dog Ferdinand, sit on a memorial bench dedicated to her daughter’s brutal gang murder in 2009.

Brianna’s murder remains unsolved.

Statistics In B.C., nearly one in five (18 per cent) people killed in car crashes are pedestrians.

In the Lower Mainland, 33 pedestrians are killed and 1,700 injured in crashes every year.

On Vancouver Island, 10 pedestrians are killed and 330 pedestrians are injured in crashes every year.

In the Southern Interior, 12 pedestrians are killed and 240 pedestrians are injured in crashes every year.

In Northern B.C., 90 pedestrians are injured and four pedestrians are killed in crashes every year on our roads.

As pedestrians, it’s critical that we do what we can to be seen by drivers.

WEST FRASER ROAD – AREA I

PUBLIC HEARING

Communities for Veterans/The Ride Across Canada’s Paul Nichols sits astride his best friend and trusty steed Zoe as he consults a map on his journey.

Contributed photo

This is the last of Paul Nichols writings from the road. This covers the last days of the Ride Across Canada.

Paul and Terry were guests of the Canadian Finals Rodeo in Edmonton, Alta. for Remembrance Day and then returned to Ottawa to rejoin the road crew to bring it home.

W

e’re coming into our last week of the Ride Across Canada and what a ride it’s been.

Eight months away from home and just over 6,000 km in the saddle has seen us connect with communities right across our country.

I set a goal to include our contemporary veterans on this ride with me and to create discussion in their communities. I had no idea how far we would reach or how many lives we would touch. Three hundred and thirty five veterans have completed Terry’s program and joined me on the trail with our horses.

Thousands of others have

met us on the road and rallied around us in support of the ride. We have met and exceeded our goal and we have spoken with tens of thousands of Canadians.

We have created community and we have shed tears and shared hugs. We have seen hard exteriors melt and have witnessed rooms go quiet. We have helped the Canadian people lift their heads and really notice the veterans living among them and see them with new eyes.

I have confirmed what I have always known to be the truth. As soldiers we are people who have a desire

to serve and that desire does not diminish when we choose to transition out of the military. Through the Ride Across Canada we have witnessed communities embrace their veterans and we have watched our veterans step forward with new energy and their heads held high eager to contribute.

By reintroducing the Canadian people to their contemporary veterans, we have also created bridges for the ones that are struggling as a result of their service.

The terrible symptoms that can accompany post traumatic stress or operational

stress injury can hunt us and haunt us.

When we live in isolation, we are forced to face the demons alone.

With my crew and my horses we have created discussion. We are still creating awareness and I feel the quiet peace and the warming pride of a hard job well done.

St. John’s Newfoundland is a few days away.

When we stepped off from Victoria last April the Honourable Judith Guichon, Lt. Governor of British Columbia, hosted our send off from the steps of the provincial legislature.

We are wrapping up the Ride Across Canada on the Atlantic coast at a reception to be hosted by His Honour Frank F. Fagan, Lt. Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador.

We are gathering on Nov. 9 at the Mount Pearl Legion at noon and making our way to the Newfoundland National Memorial in St. John’s at 2 p.m.

CAPSULE COMMENTS With Jessica Joly B.Sc. (Pharm)

World Diabetes Day is held every year on November 14. This year’s focus is the importance of starting the day with a healthy breakfast. It will improve your concentration, mental performance and your mood. Make a good breakfast part of your day, every day. (Also, skipping breakfast will not help you lose weight).

Research on e-cigarettes is lacking when we try to see whether the ingredients when burnt are harmful to the body and longterm-use problems are yet to be determined. Then there is the still the possibility of nicotine addiction. Let’s hope the dangers of e-cigarettes are know more quickly than those of tobacco.

It’s a difficult job to decide which strains of flu virus to include in each year’s flu vaccine. Decisions were made as early as February about the content of the vaccine for 2015-16. Last year’s vaccine was not the best match however for this flu season, the vaccine will contain strains that will give recipients much better protection. It’s important that we all get a flu shot each year. Are you going to?

Grapefruit juice contains substances than can inactivate enzymes involved in the breakdown of certain drugs in the body. When that happens, it can result in higher levels of the drug which can lead to side effects. Our pharmacists will tell you when this might be a problem.

Counselling our customers on the proper use of their medications is a major part of our job as your pharmacist. It’s a job we take seriously. We are happy to answer all your questions about your medications.

Quesnel begins first field lacrosse season RYAN GRAHAM Observer Reporter The field lacrosse season for the Quesnel Minor Lacrosse Association is underway.

This is the first year that Quesnel has had their own field team, as it was previously in Prince George.

“In the past, Prince George has ran a zone team, but we’ve had enough interest here that we went ahead and decided we’re going to do it,” Lisa Scott, President of the Quesnel Minor Lacrose Association said.

“Prince George ended up not having enough interest and ended up folding and now Quesnel is the zone team.”

Field lacrosse was a desire in the community, as the players wanted to have a local team.

“The group of kids that are out there are the one’s that wanted us to do this,” Scott said.

“It’s hard to say no when they’re the one’s that are wanting to come out and play and wanting to be here.”

With that, Scott successfully applied for a grant through Via Sport and the government of B.C. to start a field lacrosse program in Quesnel. Scott says that lacrosse allows players huge prospects in and outside the sport.

“There’s huge opportunities in the lacrosse world for scholarships to get an education,” Scott said.

“Lacrosse isn’t the sport where you’re going to make millions of dollars like the NHL, but it’s the sport where a scholarship is actually attainable.

Give pause on Remembrance Day A field of poppies has come to symbolize the soldiers who lost their lives while fighting in battle.

Throughout history, millions of soldiers have marched into wars to protect the freedoms of their countries. Remembrance Day is a solemn time to commemorate those soldiers’ achievements and sacrifices, and to pay respects to soldiers who died in battle.

In the United States, people honor their present and past military on Veterans’ Day. In British commonwealth countries and territories, including Canada, November 11 is known as Remembrance Day. Since the end of World War I, memorials to remember those of the armed forces who fought in battle and perished in the line of duty have been dedicated on this day.

Armistice Day origins Remembrance Day was once known as Armistice Day because it marks the signing of the armistice that put an end to the hostilities of World War I. On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of the year, guns fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare between the Germans and Allied troops. The armistice agreement was signed in a French train carriage at 11 a.m. Later, the carriage where the historic event took place was placed in a specially constructed building to serve as a monument to the defeat of Germany. Although it was moved by German forces and later destroyed during World War II, after that war ended a replacement carriage, correct in every detail, was rededicated on Armistice Day in 1950.

Remembrance Day evolution Armistice Day was renamed Remembrance Day after World War II to commemorate soldiers from both world wars.

It is now used as a way to pay hommage to any fallen soldier.

Each year a national ceremony takes place at the Cenotaph in Whitehall, London, a monument erected as a memorial to soldiers buried elsewhere. The Queen will lay the first wreath at the Cenotaph,

while others will leave wreaths and small wooden crosses.

In Canada, Remembrance Day is a statutory holiday in many provinces and territories. Official national ceremonies are held at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. Events begin with the tolling of the Carillon in the Peace Tower, during which members of the Canadian Forces participate and congregate at Confederation Square. Similar ceremonies take place in provincial capitals across the country. Very often moments of silence are offered for lost lives.

What about the poppies?

One of the unifying symbols of Remembrance Day is the poppy that is worn to honor lost soldiers. The bold, red color of the flower has become an enduring symbol of those who died in order that others may be free.

The poppy became a symbol for a specific reason. Some of the most concentrated and bloody fighting of World War I took place in Flanders, a region in western Belgium. As a result of the fighting, most signs of natural life had been obliterated from the region, leaving behind mud and not much else. The only living thing to survive was the poppy flower, which bloomed with the coming of the warm weather the year after fighting in the region had ceased. Poppies grow in disturbed soil and can lie dormant in the

ground without germinating. Without the war, they may have never come to the surface.

John McCrae, a doctor serving with the Canadian Armed Forces, was moved by the vision of poppies flowering in Flanders and wrote a poem, titled “In Flanders Fields.” After the poem was published, it received international acclaim and the poppy became a popular symbol of those lost in battle.

Men traditionally wear the poppy on the left side of the chest, where a military medal would be placed. Women wear it on the right side, because that is where a widow would wear her husband’s medals.

Remembrance Day is celebrated every year, providing people humbled by the sacrifices of soldiers an opportunity to remember those soldiers’ efforts to secure freedom.

ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter As the custodian of many veteran stories, I assume that role with much humility and admiration for the contributions, big and small, made by these veterans.

Two such veterans are Jean and Reg Muir. t the age of 18, in 1943, Reg was desperate to sign up and tried to enlist in the Airforce, Navy or the Merchant Marine but finally enlisted in the Army in the Armoured Tank Core in Vancouver.

After basic training in Vernon, B.C., Reg was posted to Camp Borden where he took courses in wireless and gunnery and just before Christmas 1943 he finally got his posting overseas to somewhere in England where he was to take more courses in wireless and gunnery.

“In his letters he could tell me some details but never where he was or what he was doing,” Jean said.

Jean and Reg had dated as teenagers in Williams Lake, she was at boarding school and he lived nearby. Before he shipped overseas, Reg made the journey to Victoria to see Jean, she was going to school there at the time.

Through his letters, Jean pieced together a sketch of Reg’s life at that time. He wrote of the big trench dug in their tent so when the air raid signal sounded during the enemy bombing of London and area, the men would dive into the trench. After one bombing when their tent was spared they emerged to find the church next to them was demolished and an unexploded bomb was just behind their tent. Jean remarked their guardian angel was looking after

bat, his knee was so bad he was sent home with a pension. By this time Jean had enlisted and the letters between them became less and less until finally they stopped. It was more because of the difficulty of keeping in touch, than any other reason.

For Jean her adventure was just beginning. She enlisted in the navy in 1944 at HMCS Esquimalt.

“Everyone worked for the war effort in whatever job they could do,” Jean said.

“My sister Kay worked Womens Royal Canadian in the Boeing aircraft Naval Services factory in Victoria, my W5731 - Wren Jean E.

and overseas. The women lived in former sailor barracks and things such as double decker bunk beds, no doors on either the showers or the toilets, bells to wake you, ironing uniforms, responding with yes ma’am and no ma’am and of course the lack of communication (other than letters) with family and loved ones took some getting used to.

With only one furlough a year and a four-day train ride to get home, Jean and several of her western enlistees, for the two years she was in the Navy, allowed the local girls to go home for Christmas and the others would take their furlough at New Years and go to New York City, Time Square and all. On one of those trips, Jean dropped into an American Service Club to find a huge surprise.

“It was the shock of my life. My older brother was sitting there. I thought he was still overseas,” Jean said.

“That was so good.”

For the WRCNS you had to be 21 to be posted overseas. Jean remembered the excitement when one of the women received their overseas posting.

When the war was over, Jean had hoped to remain in the Navy but in 1946 they were advised

WRCNS was being demobilized and in August of that year she was discharged and returned to B.C. A chance meeting in the Quesnel bus stop brought Jean and Reg back together. The couple were married in 1949 in Kamloops then moved to Quesnel. They raised eight children.

“Reg and I were very proud to have served our country, in some small way,” Jean said.

“To help keep our freedom and keep our country safe.”
