Oyster River elementary schools at the end of last school year, but thanks to the effort put in by district staff, it all came together in time for opening.

“There was an extra effort this year because we also had the transition of two school communities, and that was not without herculean effort,” Longridge said, “not only on the part of the facilities workers and staff to get the building ready, but and I’d like to say to the administrators of those schools who worked tirelessly throughout the summer – not just by being present but also by doing everything right down to actually physically moving boxes – to make sure everything was ready by the time the kids walked through the door.”

As with every school year, however, this one also had a few transportation issues.

“There were some timing issues and some logistical shifts that needed to happen, such as whether a bus was going up one side of the street or coming down the other,” Longridge said. “We just sort of sort those out as we hear about them.

“That’s actually why Steve (Hrybko, head bus driver) went out and physically ran some of the routes so he could see exactly what was going on. We even stood outside of bus stops and drop-offs to see when kids were being dropped off.”

One thing in particular that they were hearing

was a timing problem to the south, where parents were adjusting to new schedules now that their kids were boarding buses into town now that Oyster River is closed.

“Parents from Oyster River were concerned about the start time at Ocean Grove, so we tried to adjust both with the pick-up times coming from the south and the drop off times, coordinating at the school, which has an effect on the start times at the school, so we got that all ironed out.”

Longridge says they expect a few transportation glitches at the start of each school year while everyone gets back into their routine, and would like to thank the public for making the district aware of any issues they encounter so they can address them quickly.

“We know that transportation is a big thing in people’s day in regard to the kids getting to and from school, so we just want to make sure that any elements that

come up that need to be addressed, we want to make sure we’re on it. We try to plan ahead as much as possible and then quickly catch those things that somehow didn’t get sorted out as you were prepping,” Longridge says.

“Sometimes it’s just a matter of new drivers doing the routes and buses back up because there’s two minutes here and an extra minute there and it adds up.

It’s really just a logistical tightening of what’s going on and making sure there’s nothing we’re missing in regard to where kids need to be picked up and dropped off.”

One pleasant surprise, Longridge told the board Tuesday in discussing schools going back in session, is the fact that it looks like the overall student population in the district may have increased this year.

“These are early days, and I’m always very hesitant to give specific numbers (this early) because

you don’t know by the end of the month exactly what you’re looking at – particularly in secondary while kids choose courses and you have FTE as well as headcount to deal with.”

It’s not the growth itself that is a surprise – the district projections were that there would be a decrease in secondary students this year with an elementary increase more than offsetting that decrease, leading to an overall increase of about 15 students.

But the current headcount, “is up about 85 to 90 students,” Longridge says, “but we’ll have to see how that all settles as we discover that maybe some kids didn’t tell us they weren’t showing up or maybe we get a few more families that are continuing to move into the community.”

The board certainly hopes the estimates hold up – or even increase – when the final numbers are in, as the funding they receive from the provincial government is

directly tied to the number of students in their classrooms.

Dave Jackson, president of Citizens on Patrol, and Norm McGill, director of the organization’s “Speed Watch” and “Cell Watch” programs, put in a shift on the side of Merecroft Road Wednesday.

MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Dave Jackson and his crews of volunteers have been visible since school went back in session after Labour Day. Jackson is the president of Citizens on Patrol (COP), a group dedicated to monitoring and encouraging behaviour in our community to make it a safer place to live. When school’s back in session, they’re out there with the orange cones, radar guns, speed signs and clipboards you’ve been seeing all over town, reminding people to slow down and focus on what they’re doing.

The program is called “Speed Watch,” and it has the backing and support of the RCMP. Sure, COP can’t pull people over and issue tickets, Jackson says, but they do “kind of give people a wake-up call and get them back into a head space they may have gotten out of over the summer and remind them to slow down, especially in certain areas where there are more kids around or extra pedestrian traffic, that sort of thing.”

They also have a direct line of communication with the RCMP, Jackson says, as yet another officer drives by and they exchange waves, so they can instantly call in anything especially egregious.

“If there are flagrant problems, we have direct line to them. We can give them the make, model – usually a license plate – and the vehicle’s speed and behaviour, and they’ll follow that up, you can be sure of that,” Jackson says.

“They’re definitely floating around supporting what we’re doing.”

And the community, it seems, appreciates what they’re doing, as well.

“For the most part, we get waves and thumbsups from probably 99 per cent of the people we see.

There are some of them, sure, who maybe see it as a bit of an inconvenience, but most people appreciate the reminder and see that we’re just trying to keep everyone safe,” Jackson says, waving at another passer-by.

COP compiles all the data they collect and creates a report for the RCMP and ICBC, and those organizations can use those statistics to

create new programs, enhance existing programs, adjust signage or traffic control lights, or make whatever changes they feel will make the community safer.

And while the first two weeks after school gets back in session are focused on the “Speed Watch” program, next week they will be shifting gears and taking on distracted driving.

“Cell Watch,” as that program is called, is similar in its goals – to keep people focused on safety – but the approach is a bit different.

“It’s a totally different discipline,” says Norm McGill, director of both the “Speed Watch” and “Cell Watch” programs.

While “Speed Watch” happens where traffic is moving fastest, “Cell Watch” happens at intersections, where people tend to take their eyes off the road and move them down to their laps, where they keep their phones.

“We’ll be looking for people who are driving distracted, documenting as much information as we can about them and what they’re doing, radioing ahead to the police who are just up the block, and they’ll

watch for them doing it and jump out and pull them over.”

McGill says the additional eyes out there – and in court, should it come to that – alerting the RCMP to distracted drivers helps get a significant hazard off the road.

“Nobody has the right to endanger another person like that,” McGill says, clearly passionate about this particular issue. “Not ever. You don’t have that right, and we need to make sure we do our part to make sure that’s not a thing that happens in our community.”

So why do they put all this time in? Jackson says they have over 60 volunteers and put in hundreds of hours each over the course of a year when all their programs are taken into account.

“Most of the people in the program are… let’s call them ‘midlife,’” Jackson says with a smile, “and they’ve had very interesting and diverse careers right here in this community, so this is our way of giving back to that community that gave so much to all of us, and we just want that community to be as safe as it can be.”

School District keen to dispose of excess properties, begin Phase 2 of Facility Plan MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The school board has decided what its top priorities are when it comes to the second phase of its 10-Year Facility Plan.

Among the seven recommendations adopted

by School District 72 in their recent 10-Year Facility Plan, five were slated for Phase 2, which began this month.

These recommendations were the disposal of surplus properties, reviewing rural school facility use, reviewing and addressing the district’s technology needs going forward, changing the district’s elementary school catchment areas and addressing what to do about Cedar Elementary, which consistently has one of the district’s highest enrolments, but is aging significantly.

And the Board of Education decided at this week’s public meeting in which order those will occur.

From now until June, the board will undertake a review of their technology needs, explore the sale and/or leasing of properties they are not using and redraw their elementary school catchment lines.

Rural school use and addressing Cedar School will happen the year after.

When the Facility Plan

was completed, there were many inquires and much input from various community stakeholders as to which initiatives would or should happen when, secretary-treasurer Kevin Patrick told the board Tuesday, “so we thought it would be a good idea for the board to support a formal plan as to how we would approach Phase 2.”

The recommendation of splitting this phase of the plan into two distinct sections was made by staff and accepted by the board Tuesday night.

Because the review of technology has already begun, it is natural for it to continue through this year, Patrick told the board, to which a few questions were raised in regards to whether it was just the physical equipment that was being reviewed and invested in, or also people’s ability and familiarity with that technology.

“If we do invest in this technology, we need to also invest in making sure that the children are getting the best use out of it,” said Trustee John Kerr. “Just as there’s a wide variety in terms of how our children learn and their abilities to learn in different ways, the same holds true of teachers in how they implement their instruction … I think we need to address how the teach-

Kevin Patrick

ers are going to learn to do what the government – and I guess what we, as proxies of the government in this respect – are asking them to do.”

Patrick responded to say that he hopes training and investment in the people operating the technology is included in the plan.

“One of the discussions was an openness to realize that the importance of people and training as far as the use of technology is just as important as the device itself, so we do hope that’s a component of the review,” Patrick said.

The disposal of the district’s surplus property, “was probably the one we got the most phone calls on, asking whether the board would like to keep, lease or dispose of properties, so we’re proposing that we look

at this one immediately,” Patrick said.

And because of last year’s Oyster River and Discovery Passage Elementary closures, it’s probably good to address the district catchment areas sooner rather than later, as well, Patrick told the board.

The rural school facility use review is being put on the back burner while the government itself conducts their review of rural schools, expected to be complete this spring, “which may have some good policy in it which will help the board make decisions or help support these schools, so I think it’s a good idea to wait for that report to come out before we begin ours.

It will actually be very good timing,” Patrick said.

And the Cedar Elementary decisions may be impacted by the possible revenue generated by the disposal of excess properties, Patrick said, so it’s best to wait on decisions surrounding that facility, as well.

The provincial government has made $316,000 available for the school district to improve the transportation of students, but it hasn’t given them very long to figure out how they’ll use that money so they can actually receive it.

The government’s $14 million Student Transportation Fund, “to make transportation more affordable and accessible for B.C. families,” was announced Aug. 10.

“The purpose of the fund was to eliminate bus fees, but since we don’t have bus fees, they have provided the opportunity for our district to use our share to enhance transportation services or safety for our students,” SD72 secretary-treasurer Kevin Patrick told the board of education Tuesday.

The government has allotted the district $316,860 of the $14.7 million fund, but has said they need to specify exactly how it will be used and apply for that funding before the end of September. Patrick made it clear that this funding will not be a one-time

lump sum, but rather ongoing funding to support transportation within the district.

“It’s not likely to increase, but they do commit to an ongoing fund,” Patrick said, adding that while the money from this funding needs to be used exclusively for transportation, they can find current expenses within the transportation budget for this funding to replace, freeing up the money that has been budgeted for those expenses to be used on other things.

“Our ideas have been focused on new initiatives, but in the press release – which is an official government document – it does say that we can fund existing transportation services and investing the savings in enhanced student learning, and that would indicate to me that we could use some of that funding to pay for existing services, allowing for the funds saved to be used elsewhere.”

Patrick said staff will consider the options and prepare the district’s application by the end of the month so they will qualify for the funding and report back to the board once the ministry has assessed the application.

The Justin Trudeau government has declared a pension crisis, and is imposing its solution.

After the Ontario government threatened to press ahead with its own Quebec-style provincial pension plan, the Ottawa head office of the Liberal Party stepped in. Finance Minister Bill Morneau called a meeting of provincial ministers in June, and they lined up to support his intention to expand the Canada Pension Plan starting in 2019.

Perhaps still haunted by the leap to the harmonized sales tax, B.C. Finance Minister Mike de Jong broke from the herd ever so slightly, declaring a consultation period first.

Premier Christy Clark hinted that this was a formality, since she is focused on cordial relations with Ottawa. B.C.’s rubber stamp could come any day.

Morneau’s CPP expansion plan sounds quite modest.

Employer and employee payroll contributions are to go up from the current 4.95 per cent of earnings to 5.95 per cent by 2023. For each employee earning $54,900, the employer contribution goes up $7 to $8 per

month in each of the first five years of the phase-in.

The goal is that by 2025, CPP will cover a third of earnings rather than a quarter as it does today.

Mo r n e a u i s concerned about the decline in private pension plans, and sees it as the state’s job to step in. The days of bond investments earning seven per cent interest are gone, and even public sector employers are starting to look at definedcontribution pension plans where the payout depends on investment returns.

(See the horrified response of the post office union to the idea that a guaranteed pension isn’t their God-given right.)

For private sector employees, defined-benefit pensions are mostly a distant memory, if they have an employer pension at all. Many join self-employed people who are expected to manage their own RRSPs and

tax-free savings accounts, which were curtailed by the incoming Trudeau government.

The Liberal philosophy is to discourB.C. age individual responsibility and increase state control.

De Jong gave an upbeat assessment of B.C.’s publ i c s e c tor pensions in his re cent rep or t on the public accounts. Unlike basket-case provinces such as Quebec (50 per cent unfunded li abi lit y) and Alberta (76 per cent unfunded), B.C. is 97 per cent funded.

The B.C. teachers’ pension plan has an unfunded liability of $244 million, which is projected to be covered by 2019 through increased employee and employer contributions.

Of course the employers are school districts, funded by taxpayers. B.C.’s municipal pension plan also has an unfunded

Getting the word out

The state rescues your retirement VIEWS

Premier Christy Clark is just having a nice chat around a kitchen table with four or five folks. Everyone clutches a teacup, and as Clark talks about jobs and economy, they all nod.

But they don’t say anything.

It’s the latest broadcast ad from the B.C. Liberals, and it marks the start of a long, miserable, Americanstyle election season here in B.C. Our objection is not that the ads are insanely We say: Premier early – though they are, with almost nine months needs to start to go before next spring’s coming forward provincial vote.

It’s that we’re already with specifics being bombarded with the worst clichés of political advertising.

The ad is ostensibly about two things: controlling government spending, and job growth.

Clark tells us that we’ve got to “keep our eyes on the ball” and “stay focused.”

“We have to create jobs!” she says, with such force that the sugar bowl is almost rattled.

Okay, yes. Those are fairly uncontroversial ideals.

I’m pretty sure the NDP, Greens, B.C. Conservatives, and independents would all agree that those are sound policies.

So, with fall, winter, and spring to inform us of the Liberals’ intentions, why not start telling us how you’re going to do that?

How are the Liberals (or NDP) going to keep spending under control while funding health care for an aging population?

How are they going to deal with a rapidly growing Lower Mainland that needs new schools, roads, and hospitals while rural areas of the province see population decline?

How will they help young people afford housing, without crashing the market and wiping out construction jobs?

Please, politicians, don’t tell us what you want to do.

Tell us how you’re going to do it.

liability. So if you are a selfemployed person trying to sock away retirement funds on your own, you can be comforted by the fact that you’ll be chipping in a bit extra for teachers and municipal employees to maintain their guaranteed pensions.

And if you’re a small business owner, you’re looking at an extra $40 a month for each employee for CPP. According to a survey released last week by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, some employers will have to forgo other benefits. Some expect to freeze or even cut wages. Some expect layoffs.

The CFIB survey found low public awareness of all of this.

Polling company Ipsos found almost 40 per cent of Canadians think the government pays for part of CPP. More than 70 per cent are unaware that current retirees get nothing from the CPP expansion.

The Fraser Institute ran the numbers on CPP deductions compared to Morneau’s middle class tax cut. When the CPP expansion is done, that $54,900-a-year employee will see a net decrease of $374 in take-home pay.

What is National Forest Week?

National Forest Week is sponsored across Canada by many individuals and diverse governmental and non-governmental organizations across Canada.

Established circa 1920 as Forest Fire Prevention Week, the intention was to encourage greater public awareness towards Canada’s forests. At the time, there was no apparent shortage of trees for industrial expansion – the greatest threat came from forest fires, due mainly to human causes. Since then National Forest Week, as it was renamed in 1967, has evolved to encompass the many and varied human and environmental aspects of Canada’s forest resources – past, present and future. Although special activities are promoted across Canada, National Forest Week remains first and foremost a challenge to individual Canadians to learn more about their forest heritage and support greater recognition of this valuable resource. www.cif-ifc.org

During National Forest Week, Canadians are invited to learn more about Canada’s forest heritage and to raise awareness about this valuable and renewable resource.

Forests are fundamental to our economy, culture, traditions and history – and to our future. Communities, families and individuals depend on forests for their livelihood and way of life.

This years theme is “True North, Strong and Green: Celebrating Canada’s Forests”.

We pride ourselves on our Service, and building trusting service relationships.

Steep Slope Human Fallers Ian MacNeill

photo: Graham Schaefer

Do the rapid advances in mechanized steep-slope harvesting technology spell the end of the hand faller in the history of forestry in British Columbia?

No. Not by a long shot.

The machines are coming, make no mistake about it. Although they have yet to demonstrate an ability to offer improvements in terms of productivity, it is in terms of promoting safety that they excel, says Rob Moonen Director, SAFE Companies of the BC Forest Safety Council. He reports that the injury rate for fallers in British Columbia in 2014 was a “staggering” 28.9 per cent—roughly three in 10. By contrast, the injury rate for mechanized falling was less than two per cent.

However, despite the ability of the machines to tackle ever steeper slopes, they simply can’t do it all, and the trees

they can’t get to are still going to be brought down by hand fallers. In fact, says Dave Weimer, Chair of the Western Fallers Association, we may even be facing a shortage of fallers in the coming years because the average age of working fallers today is 59. Many of them will retire out over the next few years and because an insufficient number of young

people are currently engaged in faller training to replace them—fewer than 100 a year are coming into the business according to Weimer— those left still standing are going to be in high demand.

Here and there, but not everywhere The view that the machines can’t do it all and that there is now and always

will be a place for hand fallers is widely held, up to and including at the academic level. According to Kevin Lyons, an associate professor in Forest Operations at UBC, and a man who worked in the woods and felled trees as a young man and has done extensive research at the academic level on falling, today’s mechanized fallers are 30 to 40-ton

He says he views with skepticism the claims that machines are certified to operate on 100 per cent slopes.

“Anything over 70 tends to get a little bit crazy.” Anchored machines can, of course, work more difficult terrain, “but then you’re only working below the road, and we have a lot of wood that’s above the road.” And finally, BC’s topography is more challenging in many ways than jurisdictions where the machines have had greater success, particularly Oregon.

“We have U-shaped valleys with steep sides, whereas Oregon has more gentle ridges and deeply incised valleys, so it’s not as simple saying a machine certified to 100 per cent can go anywhere.”

None of this comes as revelation to Ted Beutler of Aggressive Timber Falling, a TLA member based in Nanaimo. A lifelong logger who started out cutting shake blocks at the age of 17 before turning to falling, Beutler now runs a company that employs as many as 40 fallers

at any given time, and work is never hard to find. “As far as I’m concerned the impact of machine harvesting has already happened, and the equipment being developed to attack steep slopes will only be applicable in very specific situations,” he says. “These machines will never be able to harvest old growth.

The wood is too big and heavy; the only way to do it is with hand fallers.” Helilogging is another area where fallers will continue to be in high demand, he adds.

Rather than fear the rise of the machines, he thinks now is the perfect time for young people to consider falling as a career. “Fallers are going to be in greater demand than ever,” he says. “Numbers are declining due to attrition, mostly as a result of aging, and anyone who comes in can have a bright future. The only reason they’re turning to these machines in the first place is because there aren’t enough fallers to go around anymore. It isn’t a matter of if there is going to be a shortage of fallers, there already is.”

Jordan Nicolussi, president of Sibola Mountain Falling, a TLA member based in Prince George is another whose bullish on the future of hand falling. “We absolutely believe that there is going to be a place for us in the future,” he says

machines whose operational abilities are restricted by both slope and tree size, including diameter and height. “So even with a grapple saw there’s a limitation on what you can do safely, especially when you consider the importance of retaining value in the tree and not just smashing it down,” he says.

confidently. “Machines won’t ever be able to do it all; I’ve yet to see one that could come into the kind of terrain we’re working in, and I’ve definitely never seen one that can go down a rock bluff.”

He adds that flexibility and adaptability are keys to survival. “We’ll fell trees wherever they need to be felled. Our main business is logging, but we do it for mining companies, oil and gas,

He also says he gets at least a call a week, sometimes from overseas, from men wanting to break into the business.

“As far as I’m concerned, the fallers out there now have nothing to worry about when it comes to getting work.” What does concern him though, is that many already in the business are hearing about the new machines and getting increasingly concerned about their own futures, despite evidence that there will always be a place for hand fallers in the logging equation. “If the goal is safety then it’s not a good idea to be putting men who already have a stressful enough job in the position of having to worry about their future, especially when they don’t need to be.”

it is safe to say that hand fallers are going to remain an integral and important component of the business, and that many are going to be working in what is likely to be the most difficult ground— the terrain even the most aggressive

concern. “As this new technology gets deployed we need to ensure that we are ahead of the curve and are able to supply industry with methods to reduce the risk of fallers being pushed into increasingly dangerous terrain,” says Rob Moonen.

steep-slope machines won’t tackle.

Making that environment as safe as possible is going to be of paramount

It’s also worth noting that in situations where hand fallers are replaced by machines, good jobs will open up in the cabs for operators. In fact, says UBC Kevin Lyons, the future may hold some combination of both man and machine, a not implausible notion in a world of rapidly advancing technologies. “It’s not inconceivable that technologies will emerge that will allow fallers to do their job more safely. The question, I suppose, is will we call them fallers or machine operators. It’s hard to say.” photo: Graham Schaefer

construction, hydro, anything,” he says, adding that his company is “perfectly situated” to deliver if the much-promised LNG projects move forward.

Rumors that the days of hand falling are numbered can also have the effect of discouraging young people from considering it as a career, an unintended consequence that could lead to an even greater shortage of qualified fallers in the future.

No one can see into the future or predict what kind of advances will be made when it comes to falling. However,

Proud Supporter of National Forest Week

If fallers all became machine operators it would be a sad day for men like Ted Beutler. “There’s a lot of chatter in the industry—particularly from the mechanical manufacturers—about how we have to get fallers out of the bush because the work we do is dangerous.

However, as fallers, we know our work is dangerous and we knew it when we signed on, but we don’t want to be told by non-fallers we can’t do our job because of it. We fallers choose to be fallers and often times feel drawn to the career in the first place.

“There have been great strides within the industry over the past number of years to improve overall hand faller safety,” said Beutler. “There are improved training standards, certifications for both fallers and managers, as well as a stringent professional auditing process.

None of this was in place only a few years ago. The next generation of hand fallers will be better trained and better managed and they’ll have greater support from an improving safety culture within the industry. More than ever before, they’ll perform their daily work as safely as possible.”

Built for the job There isn’t much about falling that

Graham Schaefer doesn’t like. He loves the smell of sawdust as it swirls around him and the exquisite feeling of satisfaction he gets when he drops a tree exactly where he wants it. He loves being a skilled practitioner of an historic BC trade, one that helped build the province.

“I hate breaking wood though,” he says.

“Some of it is more than 500 years old and I figure the least I can do is maximize its value as much as possible.”

A small-town boy from Lumby, BC, Schaefer certified in 2009 and has been a production faller with Sibola Mountain Falling for the past two years. He brings to his job the professionalism of a surgeon.

“Our day is full of situations you have to learn how to manage—snags, blowdown, shot rock, fog, rain and a million other things—and managing it gives me great satisfaction,” he says, adding that he finds he works with applied physics every day, including monumental forces and enormous weight. “It’s kind of funny because I failed physics in high school.”

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

He says he has no concerns about mechanical fallers putting him out of work. “I’d have to see it to believe it,” he says. “We deal with sensitive areas, large amounts of rainfall, grades of up to 70 per cent, rock and bluffs, all areas where I question a machine’s ability. At this point I’m not too worried.”

Arrange a tree planting: www.treecanada.ca

And that’s a good thing, because working as a production faller has been, quite simply, “one of the best experiences of my life, and I plan to keep on doing it until I’m too old to pull a saw.”

A married man of 32 he says the hardest part is being away from his wife of seven years. “But she’s very supportive; I couldn’t imagine life without her.”

Coming Together: Tourism, FirstNations and Forestry Brenda Martin

At the mouth of Orford River, the brilliant hue of glacier-fed, turquoise coloured fresh water contrasts with darker sea water of Bute Inlet. But the mixing of the fresh and salt waters are not the only contrasting thing at Orford these days. There is also an unlikely triad working together—forestry, First Nations and tourism.

Drew Blaney is one of the Homalco youth cultural tour guides. His grandpa was born at Orford 79 years ago when the Homalco still had a village there.

Now, First Nations working in forestry is not unusual these days. And neither is First Nations working in tourism. But forestry and tourism are still unfamiliar partners. That said there’s a new age dawning in Campbell River and indeed along the coast between BC’s two most famous industries.

Back in 2011, the Homalco First Nation, led by then Chief Richard Harry, was in the process

of treaty negotiations and was looking to the future. With tenure negotiations underway, they decided it was a good time to start a forestry program and bought a logging company, now called Homalco Forestry LP, based out of Campbell River.

Today Homalco Forestry, a TLA member company, has 20-25 employees and is in its fourth year of harvesting 175,000 m3 per year on Interfor and TimberWest tenure.

Originally, the Homalco planned to harvest on their own tenure but treaty negotiations have been slower than planned. “We hadn’t intended to compete with other logging contractors in the Campbell River area but we have managed to stay afloat without having our own Homalco tenure,” said Gordie Atkinson, General Manager for Homalco Forestry. In the long-term, Atkinson says, “We’d like to manage a fair share of the Homalco traditional territory and also harvest timber for Interfor and TimberWest.”

One of the few 100 per cent band-owned companies, Homalco Forestry is also working hard to build up its First Nations workforce. Derek Ferguson, Woods Foreman for Homalco Forestry and Metis himself, is proud to say that 50 per cent of the workforce is First Nations. “I usually mentor people I think have promise and then get them to shadow another First Nations or Metis employee,” said Ferguson. “I believe

it’s part of my job to build capacity within the Homalco First Nation.”

“From my point of view it is happening very fast,” said Atkinson. “I never would have thought we’d have half First Nations employment in four years.” And he acknowledges that logging is hard work.

Nation has run grizzly bear tours at Orford for 20 odd years. Every year the bears come down to the river estuary to feed on the salmon returning to spawn. While they are focused on filling their bellies with salmon, it’s easy to watch the bears in their natural element from one of the Homalco’s four bear viewing towers.

Development Officer and General Manager of Orford River Operations. “80 per cent of the business was coming from 20 per cent of the customers so we focused on them.”

They also focused on infrastructure— building an presentation centre and two more bear viewing towers—and the professional development of their guides.

The business continued to grow.

Then, in the summer of 2014, the inevitable happened. The two Homalco businesses overlapped. Homalco Forestry would be harvesting in Orford while Homalco Wildlife Tours ran their bear tours.

Were people worried?

“Logging and tourism? I embraced it,” said Atkinson. “We like to show off our natural resource planning.”

“It’s not for everybody. Camp life can be isolating and the days are long—up at 4 am and not back until 6 pm.”

The Homalco already attend tourism/ forestry meetings hosted by the provincial government in Campbell River. “The kayakers and the fishing tour people attend as well,” said Atkinson. “These are the other people who use the Discovery Islands and Bute Inlet for their businesses.” The group has worked hard to work together rather than get bogged down in their own needs. “It’s easy to get single-minded about managing for your own resource—be it tourism, fishing or forestry. I think that’s where the Homalco can offer a fresh perspective. They

manage many resources—hydro, forestry, wilderness tours and a fish hatchery and this gives us a broader perspective.”

O’Connor also explains that an action plan was created to help things go smoothly.

“We developed a protocol for driving on the roads—logging trucks would hang up at at 6 km mark so tour busses could get up the road and the turn at 5.5 km.” They also bought another vehicle so they could shuttle tourists away to a safe viewing point when the log dump was in use.

But the key was talking to the tour providers and guides and making sure they knew about the sustainable forestry practices being used. Tour guides also informed tourists that while new cutblocks can be unappealing, they’d point out one year, two year and five-year-old cutblocks on the way up to Orford so tourists would know that it is just a matter of time before a cutblock greens up.. “The key is to deemphasize and explain,” said O’Connor.

“We didn’t have one complaint. In fact, some tourists thought it was cool.”

“There was discussion with the tourists at Orford River,” said Atkinson. The displays at the new presentation center explained the Homalco’s sustainable resource development and got the conversation started. “Most of the tourists are interested in how we manage our resources—

Anyone who plays this wonderful game knows it’s hard.

It’s not only difficult in terms of getting that stupid little ball in that stupid little hole, but it’s also physically hard on a person’s body.

It doesn’t look it to those who don’t play, though. I mean, for those not intimately familiar with the sport, it just looks like we’re just hitting a ball with a stick, so we certainly aren’t ATHLETES, right?

I’m going to have to disagree.

Sports Fitness Advisor, a website dedicated to “scientifically-backed fitness advice for sport and life,” says it beautifully, I think.

“Make no mistake,” they write, “golfers, at any level, ARE athletes and the golf swing DOES require a great deal of athleticism.

“Strength, power, flexibility, balance, core stability, body awareness, even endurance... they’re all physical traits that every consistent golfer (even the fair-weather players) must possess.”

Even NFL football Hall-of-Famer Emmitt Smith, who many think of as the greatest running back of all time, recently told golf journalist David Feherty that he couldn’t golf during the football season because of the physical demands of the sport.

Not the demands of football – the demands of golf.

So if one of the most fit human beings on the planet says he couldn’t, even back in his prime, play both his sport and golf during the same period of the year, can we get a little recognition for how much physical effort we put in when we’re out there?

And for those who don’t play, and don’t think it’s that physically taxing, I would like to issue a challenge: pick up a cheap golf club from a thrift store (or borrow one from a friend, who will gladly lend you one if you tell them what you’re doing with it) and just go outside and swing it 80 times as if you were playing golf – while you walk about 8 km. If you only want to simulate a round with a power cart, maybe only walk 2 or 3 km while making your swings.

But keep in mind many of us are usually swinging those clubs as hard as we can, because we’re not smart and take less club than we should because we want to convince ourselves we’re stronger than we actually are. Our egos are complicated.

Also keep in mind that the worse you are at this game, the more you effort you exert because you’re taking more swings, and the more mileage you put on when you’re out there – because you’re not just walking up and down fairways but also trudging around in the trees.

And most of us aren’t very good.

mothers to Grandmothers campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

The Foundation uses the funds to provide needed assistance to AIDSaffected African grandmothers who have stepped forward to raise their orphaned grandchildren while grieving the loss of their own children.

Eight Island grandmother groups prepare meals and refreshments and cheer the riders along the route.

Here in Campbell River, the local chapter of Grandmothers to Grandmothers organized a potluck dinner on Thursday evening before the tour to give the riders a good send-off.

The Victoria Grandmothers for Africa organized the tour and Sunday’s welcome event at the Legislature.

Many have pulled out their boats and the fishing season is over. If you compared this summer to last year, the fish numbers are down. Even at the beginning of June, early reports were okay. Fishing then tapered off during July and August. Throughout the summer, many anglers who had little success for salmon leaned more toward going after halibut or bottomfish.

Large wild coho are in the area and those who fished at Kelsey Bay in Sayward saw the action. Some side shows were Blondie the sea lion goggling up their catch.

From now until late October, trout fishing can be very good in local lakes and Echo Lake will be restocked in early October with catchable size rainbows. Shore anglers are catching trout on power baits, gulp eggs or worms fished on the bottom. Trollers are catching fish on gang trolls and wedding bands.

Lee Cadwallader and Bob Sallis enjoy another great day of fishing off Winter Harbour July 2016 are various green fly patterns that work on the Campbell River and blue is a popular colour fished on the Eve River.

The number of anglers fishing for pinks on the Campbell River was down as the run was very weak compared to the large run we had last year. The best action on fly was in the fly fishing zone by the dam and lots of fish were caught and released.

The Campbell River Tyee Club has wrapped up the season and on Sept.

13 at 6:55 a.m., Fred Gerl got to the scale weighing in a 31.5 pound Tyee caught on a plug and Paula Davis got a 32.5 and Tim Samuels a 31.5 pound Tyee.

A fishing club from Victoria fished in Port Hardy and south of Campbell River and the action was slow for those casting out fly patterns. There

Discovery Pier anglers had a great summer casting out lures and last week the size of salmon tapered off but throughout the summer, great

On the fly, I changed from leech pattern and woolly bugger patterns to a hare’s ear nymph that proved to be a very hot fly fished on Tuesday.

I will be taking registrations at the Roberts Lake Family Fun Trout Derby this Saturday at 6 a.m. The derby is free and will wrap up at 5 in the afternoon. The water temperature should be around 62 degrees and those fishing in the morning usually come back to the cabin to weigh in their fish. Some of the bigger trout are caught between 2 and 4 p.m. and the biggest trout I have seen is 5.1 pounds and lots of trout 1 to 2 pounds will be caught. I will be at weigh in cabin just down from the restaurant and host Lorna Duncan supplies all the prizes that will be awarded.

See you at Roberts Lake Saturday.

Record year for Hospital Foundation golf tournament MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Storey Creek Golf Club was once again host to one of our region’s largest charity golf tournaments Sept.

10 as the Campbell River Hospital Foundation put on their annual “Golf. Because You Care” fundraising tournament.

“The support we get from everyone involved every year is

just outstanding,” says Stacey Marsh, executive director of the Hospital Foundation. “People start planning for the following year’s event at the conclusion of each one, that’s how into it they are, and we really appreciate how much effort everyone puts into it, knowing that it’s for a really good cause.”

The cause this year was raising funds for a new transesophageal echocariography (TEE)

imaging probe for the new hospital.

TEE probes are an alternative way to perform an echocardiogram (ECG), which uses sound waves to map out the size and shape of a heart, allowing doctors to map that vital organ and look for abnormalities in its valves or chambers. The TEE probe has an ultrasound transducer at its tip and is passed through a patient’s esophagus.

Traditional ECGs are performed using sensors on the patient’s skin, so TEE probes enable clearer images due to the esophagus being much closer to the heart itself. Marsh says people currently have to travel to Victoria to get TEE tests done, so the acquisition of this equipment in the new hospital will further one of the foundation’s key goals, which is to allow more patients to be diagnosed and

treated closer to home.

While there isn’t an exact total from this year’s tournament yet, Carly Pisterzi, event and communications director of the founda-

tion says the total will be over $40,000, making it the most successful tournament they’ve ever held. Which should just about cover the cost of the $44,000 TEE probe

all by itself, allowing the foundation to turn its attention to their next goal as they continue their work improving Campbell River’s healthcare capacity.

COMMUNITY UPDATE SEPTEMBER 16, 2016

KEEP KIDS SAFE BACK TO SCHOOL TIPS FOR EVERYONE With children heading back to school, the City, the school district and RCMP are asking drivers, cyclists and parents to watch out for kids along roadways.

Safety tips for sharing the road with children cycling: • When passing someone riding a bicycle, proceed in the same direction slowly, and leave at least one metre between your car and the cyclist.

• When turning left and a cyclist is approaching in the opposite direction, wait for the rider to pass.

• If you’re turning right, shoulder check for cyclists and let the rider go through the intersection first.

• Be prepared in case children on bicycles turn in front of you without looking or signaling • Be extra vigilant in school zones and residential neighbourhoods.

• Watch for bikes coming from driveways, alleys and parking lots or behind parked cars.

• Check your side mirrors before opening your door.

Find more information on school zone safety at http://www.icbc.com/roadsafety/teaching/Documents/teach-your-child-to-be-a-safe-pedestrian.pdf

seconds before the system pines for the touch of your warm hands. If you fail to respond to its advances, then the car will flip on the emergency lights and grind to a controlled stop. I’m probably being a little too flippant when one ponders the thoughts of drivers suffering a heart attack or stroke.

I should save my frivolous remarks for the options category. The Air Balance package, which offers four choices of fragrances to sweeten the interior to “your preference and mood”. Worry not, you can control the intensity of the pong. The system increases oxygen ionization to improve air quality and reduce the number of viruses, bacteria and spores in the cabin.

The optional Parking Pilot is super, with some reservations. You pick from the choice of suitable spaces detected by the system, then select forward or backwards parking and away it goes. My two reservations: I don’t like forward parking and I do hope we all continue to teach new drivers how to park properly – manually!

I like the optional Drive Pilot for city driving; it really pulls all the standard features together and adds the ability to let the car ease the negotiation of slow traffic.

For me this launch was about the technology innovations, but it can also be revealed that the E-Class offers no surprises in the drive – it gets an A! First up in Canada is the E300 4Matic with a turbo charged four-cylinder 1.9-litre gas engine, mated to a 9-speed auto transmission. The E400 4Matic with a 2.9-litre V6 biturbo power plant and same transmission will follow – details later. I suspect the four-banger, if I can be so crude, will likely satisfy most needs.

Starting sticker price for the E300 is $61,200. You can soon boost that by another $10,000 with optional packages but the base model is hardly basic.

Question of the week…

The semi-autonomous drive technology featured in the 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan is among the most advanced in the world. Would you be tempted to add such safety features to your car or do you prefer to remain control of your car at all times?

Safety Tip: Need directions to your end of summer getaway?

Avoid distractions while driving and remember to program your GPS in your car or on your phone before you start your road trip.

There’s no safe time to do it in traffic.

Fighting back against childhood cancer Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR

When Iona Wharton’s close friend lost her daughter to cancer last year, she was desperate to do something to help.

Wharton quickly realized the most meaningful thing she could do was to help her friends in their crusade to fight back against pediatric cancer.

“For them it’s about how do we help and stop other families from having to go through this,” Wharton says.

Her friends lost their 17-year-old daughter Robyn Boytinck in July of 2015, 13 months after being diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. Miraculously, Robyn battled back and after some quick treatment and intervention, her cancer went into remission.

But three months later, Robyn was diagnosed with a new cancer, Acute Myel oi d L e u ke m i a .

Despite putting up a valiant fight, Robyn succumbed to the disease.

Robyn’s mom, Marina Boytinck, turned her grief into determination.

Wanting to raise awareness of the devastating and all-too-real impacts of pediatric cancer, Marina got in touch with Unravel Pediatric Cancer, an American non-profit organization working to spread knowledge about pediatric cancer and boost the amount of funding directed towards pediatric cancer research.

“She started bugging them, asking if she could be their organizer in Canada because she felt so lost after she lost Robyn and wanted to do something,” Wharton says.

Her determination paid off and the organization unveiled its Fluttering campaign in Canada for the first time this September –Childhood Cancer Awareness month which is marked with a gold ribbon. Wharton, eager to do her part, set up a Fluttering fundraiser page in Robyn’s memory. Her goal is to raise $500 by Sept. 30 to go towards pediatric cancer

Iona Wharton, left, and pal Levy are raising money to fight childhood cancer in honour of a family friend.

research, which according to Unravel Pediatric Cancer is underfunded.

The organization says that in the United States, the federal government allots less than four per cent of that nation’s tax dollars set aside for cancer research to pediatric cancer.

Wharton says that’s unacceptable.

“To me, these are our future,” Wharton says.

“I just want to throw this out to the town because I know our town has a big heart. It’s putting yourself in these parents’ shoes. It was heartbreaking to see my friends go through

this.”

And, she says, childhood cancer seems to sadly be becoming more and more common.

“When I was growing up, I hardly ever heard of kids getting cancer. Now it seems almost everyone knows of a kid going through cancer,” Wharton says. “I know of two people in town who have a child with cancer and I’m sure other people do too.”

Which is what makes the Fluttering campaign all the more important.

Wharton says even if she doesn’t reach her fundraising goal, she hopes

that through telling her friend’s story, it will help increase awareness that Childhood Cancer Awareness month exists and that childhood cancer is a reality for millions of parents.

“I have a son the same age as Robyn and to watch my friends’ journey through this; feeling overwhelmed, horrified, angry, desperate and so sad has been beyond hard - a parent’s worse nightmare,” Wharton says. “Now I watch them in their quest to find better funding for pediatric cancer, awareness in hopes for a cure so no other child and parents need to go through this.”

Through the Fluttering campaign, anyone who gives a suggested donation of $25 gets to ‘flutter’ a friend, family member, or whomever they choose. The ‘flutter’ recipient will get a dozen plastic dragonflies in their yard for a day, along with a sign and an envelope challenging the recipient to consider making a donation.

Wharton stresses, however, that it’s all in good fun and donors don’t have to send the dragonflies.

Anyone who would like to make a donation online can visit her Fluttering page at: give.unravelcancer.org/ fundraise?fcid=746219 or call Iona at 250-2870647 to send some dragonflies and challenge someone to fundraise.

Ralph Weckstrom Ralph Weckstrom, aged 73, passed away on August 25, 2016 in Langley, BC. Ralph was born in Vancouver, BC, to Odin and Gladys Weckstrom of Port Mellon, BC. Ralph grew up in Honeymoon Bay. After high school, Ralph joined the Royal Canadian Navy and spent the next seven years traveling the globe. Upon discharge, he married Shirley Smith, and then they moved back to Vancouver Island.

Ralph eventually ended up in Campbell River working as a mill wright at Elk Falls pulp mill, where he would work until retirement. Ralph enjoyed music, and lead the Sea Cadet Band for a number of years, earning a reputation as a tough, but fair, leader. He then moved on to several years of active participation as Drum Major in the Legion Pipe Band, thoroughly enjoying the travel, camaraderie, and competition (and a few Blues!). Ralph was also committed to the Royal Canadian Legion, where he eventually was elected to Zone Commander. During all this time, if you wanted to find Ralph on some down time, it was on his beloved boat, the Freja. Just a few years after early retirement he was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimers leading to him moving to the Lower Mainland in 2012 to be near family. Predeceased by his father Odin, and mother Gladys (2015). Ralph is survived by his children, Shanda (Craig), Steven (Sue), Sheryl, Shane (Sarah) and 7 grandchildren: Alexandra, Anika, Alaina, Easton, Eli, Ben, and Blake. Memorial Service will be held at 2 PM, Saturday, September 24, at the Royal Canadian Legion Hall, 301 11 Avenue, Campbell River.

ISLAND FUNERAL SERVICES ELK FALLS CREMATORIUM

MATE DRAZENOVIC

June 4, 1939 - September 13, 2016 It is with profound sadness that we announce that Mate has lost his battle with cancer after a long and courageous fight.

He leaves behind his loving and devoted wife of 53 years, Katica; his son Davor and daughter-inlaw Brenda and their children Ashley(James), Chaley (Dean) and Nicholas (Billie).

His daughters: Visnja and son-inlaw Mark and their children, Matthew, Christopher, Katie and Lukas; and Mary and son-inlaw Bill and their children, Liam, Ryan and Emma. As well he leaves behind 3 great grandchildren, Durnin, Keen and Leni with Baby Drazenovic on the way. Also mourning his loss are his sister, Anka and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins in Canada and Croatia.

Mate lived life to the fullest. He loved to work and play hard.

He immigrated to Prince George in 1971 and became a logger until his forced retirement 30 years later due to a back injury. He then changed his focus to his many wood projects.

He and Katica moved to Campbell River in 2005 and he made it his mission to meet as many people as possible on his long walks. Papa loved his family more than anything else and was so proud of all their accomplishments. He loved to cheer on his grandkids. The stands will be one amazing spectator short this season.

Many thanks to Dr. Lebeuf for his compassionate care right to the very end. Dad said you were the best! Thanks also to Dr. Prinsloo and to all the nurses especially Tammy, Fay and Rebecca at the Cancer Clinic.

In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society would be greatly appreciated.

Volimo te puno!

Prayers will be at 7:00 pm on Friday and funeral mass at 12:45 on Saturday September 17, 2016 at St. Patrick's Parish.

Interment and reception to follow.

Ian Robert Lawson December 20, 1992 - September 11, 2016

DYCHUK, ĔēĆ ĔėėĆĎēĊ JUNE 20, 1929 – SEPTEMBER 13, 2016

It is with disbelief and immense sorrow that we have to announce the sudden death of our wonderful son Ian Robert Lawson. Ian died tragically on Sunday, September 11th while at work doing what he loved – falling trees!

Ian was an amazing son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend.

He was our big boy (born Dec.20/92 at 9lb 10 oz and a length of 23 inches and eventually size 14 feet!).

From day one he always did his very best at all he tackled whether it be his studies, playing his guitars, Lego and model building when little, soccer, skiing, drawing, reading incessantly, working on wood work projects, boating, fishing and hunting with his family and friends, spending time with his grandparents, bugging his brother and loving his special dog Sasha.

Ian always enjoyed spending time with his family and grandparents.

Ian was a compassionate and thoughtful son, brother and friend who always took the time to help others. He touched many lives and had many wonderful friends. Ian loved to spend as much time as possible outside and especially loved going to our cabin at Ruxton Island. He had planned to get more time out there now that he had his own boat.

He was proud of his career as a faller and took his work very seriously (and talked about it incessantly to anyone who would listen as “the world isn’t going to log itself�!) His main wardrobe staple was becoming increasingly “flannel-like!�

Ian is and always will be our beloved bubballoo boy. He leaves behind his mum and dad (Fiona and Gary Lawson), his younger brother (Evan), Granny and Grandad in Victoria (Ian and Josie Young), his favorite furry friend Sasha and many aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family all over the world and many good friends of all ages. He was predeceased by his Nana and Grumps (Bob and Mary Lawson from Ladysmith).

Ian would have been 24 on Dec. 20, 2016. We will miss you, never forget you and love you forever our wonderful boy xxxxxxxxxxx Oh Ian, how can we live without you??????????

There will be a Celebration of Life for Ian for those close to him on Sunday, Sept. 18 at Painter’s Lodge from 2 to 5 pm in the Granny Painter’s Room. Please bring memories of Ian to share.

It is with heartfelt sorrow that we announce the passing of Nona Dychuk. Nona passed peacefully on September 13, 2016 at Yucalta Lodge after a lengthy illness. Nona is predeceased by her son Guy McDonald. She is survived by her husband Ralph Dychuk, her long time family friend Gordie Lee, grandchildren Steven McDonald, De-Anna McPherson and Chase McDonald, great-grandchildren Declan and Arthur McDonald and Bryce and Abbi McPherson. Nona will be remembered always by all the people she touched throughout her life and all who loved her.

In her early years she hunted and fished, then enjoyed boating and gardening. Her life long passion was art.

Many of Nona’s dear friends are fortunate enough to have some of her paintings. She was a strong willed, meticulous woman who enjoyed music and a glass of wine with her many good friends.

In lieu of flowers please make a donation to Nona’s name to the Canadian Cancer Foundation. As per Nona’s wishes there will be no formal service.

DEATHS

Rosemarie (Rose) Elizabeth Dick (Pearce, Hedley) June 14, 1939 to September 6, 2016 As Heaven celebrates her arrival, left to mourn her loss and count their blessings for the time spent with Rose are: Rose’s Husband of 59 years Tiny (Elmer Timothy) Dick; Daughter Tammy (Al); Son Michael; Grandson Spencer; Granddaughter Tanille (Guy); Grandkids Dad Ken Johnston (all of Campbell River); Brother Bill Pearce (Port Alberni); Uncle Ted L’heureux (Victoria); 4 Sister in-laws; 4 Brother in-laws; 21 Nieces and Nephews; Great Nieces and Nephews; Great Great Nieces and Nephews, along with many longtime friends and further extended family Rosemarie was born in Hamiota, Manitoba and moved to Campbell River to live with her Mother Mavis and new Father Mickey Pearce in 1948 (parents predeceased). This is where she attended school; went on to work in each of the family businesses; Mickey’s 77 Taxi and then the Quinsam Hotel; meet and marry the love of her life and raise her family.

Rose loved cooking, as many will attest her Baking, Cabbage rolls and Chinese food were the best! She also loved gardening and traveling, especially to San Francisco. However, her greatest love was family (which included everyone, blood or not) and of course her pride and joy were her grandchildren.

She was the keeper of family details with many reaching out to find out dates and family connections as she always knew the answers.

Rose always put family first, right to her last hours on this earth she worried about her family and only took her last breath after she was assured they would all be okay.

wwwcrvineyard.ca 250-286-3372

Rose requested no service be held and her family will honor this, at the same time honor her “Love of Family� at a celebratory gathering on a later date.

Sunday School begins @ 10:30 am

In lieu of flowers please consider donating to the Hospice Society, Cancer Foundation through Bill’s Kids Memorial Ball Tournament or a charity of your choice.

School District 72 (Campbell River)

August 13, 1956 - August 30, 2016

John was born and raised in Quesnel BC, until moving with the family to Campbell River in 1975. John left Campbell River for a short time in order to attend and graduate from BCIT. After graduation, John moved back to what had become home, Campbell River, where he went to work for Island Airlines in Tahsis for a year before moving on to a job with Westmin Mine Operation at Myra Falls where he stayed for 30 years.

John was predeceased by his father Peter in December of 2015 and is survived by his mother Mary; brothers Edward (Linda), Peter (Tina) Paul and sister Cilka (Mark) as well as nieces and nephews and close friends.

One of John’s greatest joys in life was golf. He loved the game and along with his brothers and Dad, they would make numerous trips over the years to golf courses near and far, all over the province. From beautiful high-end courses like Predator Ridge and Crown Royal to courses like Molly Hills where you had to shoot between cow pies, John was in his element. When John wasn’t golfing or hunting with his brothers and Dad in the Kootneys, or out fishing on the Topper III, you always knew where you could find him..at least on Sundays during football season…at home with the game on with a close group of friends, door always open to whoever wanted to stop by and join in the football fun.

John touched many lives and left an indelible mark on those he worked with and on those who were lucky enough to call him a friend. John will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

A Celebration of Life will be help October 15th at 1:00pm at the ballroom at the Anchor Inn. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation the Campbell River Hospice Society.

A

s the new generating station at the John Hart comes together, what used to be a 40 metre deep hole in the ground is slowly being filled with the supporting platforms made of rebar, wooden frames and concrete.

The cavern that is as tall as a 10 storey building and as long as a football field, according to Stephen Watson stakeholder engagement

advisor with BC Hydro, was completed in May. The primary access tunnel was completed in August, but the work is nowhere near over.

It took 13 months and 485 blasts to fully excavate the cavern, Watson said. 60,000 cubic metres of rock was removed from the site.

“It takes a long time to do everything when it is underground,” said Paul Sawyer, CEO of InPower BC the contractor for the project.

For example, getting concrete down into

Platforms are being built and cement is being poured for the new John Hart Generating Station.

the cavern is a multistep process. Sawyer said that the cement is unloaded into buckets, and lowered to the work site with the crane. The empty buckets are sent back up and the process begins all over again.

But one of the most time consuming parts of the project is the construction of the tunnels. Sawyer said they can only be built five or six metres at a time, as

The exits are clearly marked and safety is priority while onsite.

the equipment operators are not allowed to progress into areas that are not secured. The crew drilled into the rock and inserted explosives. The rubble would be removed, shotcrete applied and reinforcements added, and then the workers and equipment could advance and start the process all over again.

Sawyer said one five or six metre section can be completed a day.

Considering there is a 1,575 metre power tunnel from the reservoir to the powerhouse, a 520 metre tailrace tunnel, a 384 metre main access tunnel and a 116 metre service tunnel, it is no wonder the project is expectded to take four years and cost $1.093 billion.

Watson said there are around 350 people working on the project in Campbell River.

Everyone working and visiting the underground facilities carries a self-rescuer.

If there is ever an event underground that produces carbon monoxide, workers can breathe through the rescuer while they head to the surface. The device converts dangerous carbon monoxide to breathable carbon dioxide.

Everyone entering the tunnels also wears a tracker that indicates when entering and leaving the project site instead of physically signing in and out. Ear plugs are also required as the air ventilation system is quite loud.

Daigle Welding Boat builder finds smooth sailing in the Campbell River market since 1985

“

aigle Welding and Marine has been building custom aluminum boats in Campbell River since 1985.

After relocating from Prince Rupert, where he built and designed boats and worked in marine and general fabrication, Steve Daigle opened up a welding and separate rigging shop in Campbell River and hired three tradesmen.

“Prince Rupert didn’t have the clientele and the resource base to keep a boat manufacturer busy but Campbell River seemed to be a good place to start with the forest industry and the aquaculture industry was just starting back in 1985,” Daigle said.

Three years later

Daigle’s company had outgrown the old facility and he built a larger plant with a marine store.

The business grew and expanded so much over the next 17 years that they again built a new plant and marine store in 2004.

The building has overhead bridge cranes and new modern equipment making it much more efficient.

The store is also four times the size of the previous one.

Daigle has a naval architect as well as welders, mechanics, cabinet makers, finishers, and office and support staff under his employ. They add up to 34 in total.

As well as building custom boats, Daigle Welding and Marine does restorations as well as refurbishments

to bring existing crafts up to Transportation Canada’s regulations.

In the beginning

Daigle was building sport fishing lodge boats, passenger vessels, work boats and patrol

boats. When the new decade rolled around a new market emerged for well built commercial

As Mount Washington Alpine Resort puts the finishing touches on more than $2,000,000 of improvements, the resort has put their season’s passes on sale for the upcoming winter.

The season pass offerings will include a Gold Pass for both alpine and Nordic skiing, a Nordic only pass, and the return of a pass for midweek use only. Also returning this season will be the popular “six-pack” of alpine lift tickets which can be shared among family and friends.

The resort improve-

ments include the installation of 10 new snowmaking guns plus a new restaurant, a new retail store, a new demo center, 500 new pairs of rental skis and snowboards, and three new snow cat grooming machines to bring the total groomer fleet to eight.

Peter Gibson, the General Manager at Mount Washington said in a press release, “The resort is going through a resurgence, and all of the changes are designed to improve or augment the guest experience. For example, with the pur-

chase of three new snow cats, our pass holders will see more consistency on our groomed runs.

One of the machines is a winch cat which will allow us to get to some of those spots that are hard to reach on steeper terrain with a regular groomer.”

Don Sharpe, Director of Business Operations explained that there is a pass to suit almost every need, “The Gold Pass is the highest level of membership we offer. It gets you downhill skiing and boarding day and night, access to all of our Nor-

dic terrain, and numerous other perks such as two free days at three other BC ski areas. In addition, most other ski areas in BC offer 25% off of their day tickets to Mount Washington Gold Pass holders. If you want it all, then the Gold Pass is for you.”

Sharpe announced the return of two popular passes to Mount Washington’s product line, “We are very pleased to be able to reintroduce the Midweek pass to the lineup this winter. We heard from some of our guests, especially retir-

ees, who told us they only want to ski and ride Monday to Friday, so I guess you could say we brought it back by popular demand. The same could be said of our sixpack of tickets which lots of people buy at Thrifty Foods, and will be available at the beginning of November.”

Mount Washington has a varied season pass lineup with products to suit most schedules and audiences. Nordic season passes are very affordable for crosscountry skiers and snow shoeing, and a regular

He says there is no difference between the construction of the rug-

ged commercial hulls and the finely finished pleasure vessels as both are constructed to deal with harsh weather and stand up in emergency situations.

Daigle chooses to construct aluminum boats because of their strength, seaworthiness, durability and ease of maintenance.

He said that designing and constructing boats fell into place because he has been in the marine industry his entire life.

In his spare time, Daigle travels the world on his motorcycle. So far he has seen North America, Vietnam and Europe.

your companion.

The fear of punishment can have side-effects such as redirected aggression or lack of trust by the dog. Also, dogs who might ordinarily be friendly but have endured negative experiences related to their collars may react aggressively if someone touches them around the neck area.

Further, punishment devices actually inhibit learning.

Repetitive corrections can lead to a fear response from the dog. While on leash they live in constant fear they may be punished, yet may not understand what exactly the behaviour is that is causing the correction.

The BC SPCA supports and promotes force-free training methods.

Training should focus on positively reinforcing desired behaviours. A trainer that applies force-free methods and positive reinforcement can help identify ways to redirect your dog’s focus so he no longer pulls. She will also help identify if you are actually inadvertently contributing to the

pulling through unintended reinforcement.

The dog may be getting mixed messages from being allowed to pull sometimes but not others. As well, guardians have to evaluate the emotional state of their dogs which may be contributing to pulling. If your dog is only getting occasional walks the dog might be pulling to extend the walk or he may be pulling to get to a desired place, like the off-leash park.

Lastly, there are lots of humane collars that your trainer or knowledgeable pet supply store staff can recommend and help fit to help you as part of an overall training program for your dog.

Paws & Claws For people who

Question: I have heard of so many household hazards that affect the safety of my pets. How can I keep my pets safe?

Many of us have “pet-proofed” our homes at some point, stashing medications in locked cabinets, tucking away electrical cords and storing cleaning products high up on shelves but despite our vigilance, household dangers may still lurk in unexpected places.

The following are some common but harmful items that may surprise you: Dryer sheets contain corrosive substances

known as cationic detergents. Cationic detergents can cause eye, skin and gastrointestinal irritation. Unused dryer sheets are particularly harmful.

“Some cats like to roll in and play with the sheets,” says Meghann Cant, animal welfare educator for the BC SPCA. “Unfortunately, cats are especially sensitive to cationic detergents.” Effects of exposure include eye ulcers, skin rashes, drooling and loss of appetite, as well as burns to the mouth and throat.

Ornamental bulbs, such as those from lilies, daffodils and tulips, contain a variety of toxic chemicals. “Dogs have been known

their pets.

ASK THE SPCA diarrhea and muscle tremors.

“Compared to other pets, cats may be more at risk of poisoning

to get into bags of unplanted bulbs,” says Cant. “They may also dig up and eat freshly planted bulbs, especially when tasty blood or bone meal fertilizers have been used.”

Symptoms range from vomiting and diarrhea to seizures.

In severe cases, ingestion can lead to death.

because potpourri containers are often kept in areas where they like to hang out, such as on countertops,” says Cant. Cats may lap the liquid up directly. Exposure can also occur when cats groom

Liquid potpourris are made from essential oils.

Ingestion can cause loss of appetite, vomiting,

themselves after a spill or leak.

Sugar-free gum contains xylitol, an artificial sweetener toxic to dogs.

“Xylitol has a wide margin of safety in humans,” says Cant. “In dogs, however, ingestion can be fatal.” Xylitol is absorbed more rapidly in dogs than in people, leading to hypoglycemia and acute liver failure.

Signs of poisoning include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, loss of muscle coordination, collapse and seizures.

Should you suspect your pet has had contact with something potentially poisonous, call your veterinarian or an emergency veterinary clinic immediately. “Time is of the essence in poisoning cases,” says Cant. “How quickly treatment is started can mean the difference between life and death.”

Spot-on flea control products sold over-the-counter for use in dogs contain permethrin, an insecticide that can cause life-threatening seizure activity in cats. “Some people mistakenly use these products on their cats,” says Cant. “Others just ignore the ‘dogonly’ warning on the label.” Cats may also be exposed when they come into contact – by sleeping, grooming or playing – with recently-treated dogs.

he dictionary defines an heirloom as a valuable object that has belonged to a family for several generations.

Of course, its value need not be interpreted strictly in monetary terms.

Your great-great grandmother’s rolling pin could be an heirloom, because it has sentimental value.

Most families have many heirlooms, and there is a reason they have been kept and passed along.

asked if I wanted gold.

I said that I did not.

Having white fillings and crowns allows me to pretend my teeth are as perfect as when they first sprouted in my mouth.

After relating this story to my husband, he informed me that he has two gold crowns. How could I be married to the man for 46 years and not know this? Anyway, I didn’t, and he does.

Laughing, he said that perhaps he should leave one to each of our children.

I told him that was gross, which only encouraged him to start

thinking about the idea more seriously.

So he texted the kids and asked them if they were interested.

The replies came back almost immediately.

“Um ... okay.”

And, “Hell, yeah!”

Clearly, they are their father’s children. I’m not sure how they’re going to go about getting the teeth. All I know is that I won’t be having any part of it.

Still, a hundred years from now, when these teeth are passed along to our great-great grandchildren, the accompanying stories will definitely be worth hearing.

The annual Island Challenge/Fall Tour brought classic old cars to Campbell River this past weekend.

Drivers make a coffee stop at Elk Portal at the entrance to Strathcona Park on the Island Challenge/Fall tour last weekend.

enry Ford’s famous Model T was well represented this weekend, along with an early Overland, Hudson, Studebaker, Franklin, Buick and a couple of Packards as the North Island Chapter of the Vintage Car Club of Canada hosted the

Tin Lizzies took to the local highway last weekend H Unique exhibit opens Everyone is welcome at the Campbell River Art Gallery Thursday, Sept.

22 at 6:30 p.m. for the opening of an exciting new exhibition by renowned artist Samuel Roy-Bois.

Roy-Bois’s exhibition, Steam Donkey, will be unlike anything seen

Nearly 30 cars, some as old as 1912, took to our area roads and will be tested on the tour to Gold River on Saturday.

The Island Challenge began as the Malahat Challenge over 42 years ago, with Brass Era cars from 1916 and earlier

forging there way up the Malahat Highway from Victoria to Cowichan.

18 years ago it was decided that the Malahat was getting too busy for these old cars and it was time for a change.

So the name was changed to the Island Challenge, participation was opened up to

include any car from 1927 or earlier and hosting of the event would be rotated through all the VCCC chapters on the Island.

Two years ago it was decided to open registration up to any vintage car 25 years old or older and the name would change to the Island

at the Gallery before.

Roy-Bois will use found and constructed objects to create a once-in-alifetime exhibition. Steam Donkey, sponsored by Broadstreet Properties Ltd, questions the value of material goods in relation to their orientation in space. Roy-Bois was born in Quebec City in 1973 and is currently based in Vancouver. He

builds environments that evoke complex notions of presence, absence, denial and longing.

His art provokes questions about divisions between institutional, artistic and exhibition spaces.

Roy-Bois is an assistant professor in the Department of Creative Studies at UBC Okanagan.

Roy-Bois has been invited to create Steam Donkey at the Campbell River Art Gallery thanks to funding from the Canada Council for the Arts.

The public is also invited to a special artist talk Saturday, Oct. 22 to learn more about the exhibition. Steam Donkey will be at the Gallery until Oct. 27.

Challenge/Fall Tour.

Campbell River’s own Dave Proctor was once again on the tour, as he has been for every one

of the 43 previous tours, and is the only person to have done so.

Proctor has also been on every one of

the VCCC’s 58 annual province wide May Tours, one of just two people to have been on all of the tours.

Take back the night in Campbell River Campbell River will hold its Take Back the Night on Wednesday, Oct. 5.

In doing so, the community will join with dozens of countries and thousands of communities around the world that hold Take Back the Night marches to bring awareness of violence against women, children and families.

One of the first Take Back the Night marches was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in October 1975, after the murder of a microbiologist, Susan Alexander Speeth, who was stabbed to death while walking home alone.

Early marches were often deliberately women-only in order to symbolize women’s individual walk through darkness and to demonstrate that women united can resist fear and violence. Most marches in the present day include men; activists argued that male allies and sexual assault survivors should be allowed to march in support of women and male victims of sexual violence.

People have the right to

move freely in their communities at day and night without harassment, violence and sexual assault.

Meet in the Rose Harbour Common Room at 5 p.m., 1116 Dogwood St. You will march a

3x7

short walk with placards and return to Rose Harbour for a guest speaker and refreshments.

especially the Europeans,” said Atkinson.

“They ask how we replant and what the size the cutblocks are—the whole bundle.

Europeans have been having these conversations for a long time.”

“Forestry at the end of the day is about relationships,” said Rhiannon Poupard, Manager of First Nations & Forestry Partnerships with Interfor. There are a lot of people involved in the Orford forestry operation. Interfor has the tenure and does the planning. They’ve signed a memorandum of understanding with Homalco First Nation because the tenure is within the Homalco’s traditional territory.

Ponting Logging & Grade, another TLA member, is the road building contractor and Homalco Forestry is harvesting the trees. “Success on the ground means good relationships with all parties,” said Poupard.

Mark Ponting agrees. “Over the last 11 years, we’ve built most of the road in this area. We value the good working relationship we have with the Homalco First Nations, Homalco Forestry and Interfor.”

And further to the point of demonstrating the cross-over of the two, once juxtaposed industries, Ponting is also part owner of Coastal Water Taxi & Transport—a company that brings tourists up to Orford for bear tours. So he’s a stakeholder in both industries.

Looking at it from a wholisticangle, Shawn O’Connor is even more pragmatic. “The bottom line was there were a lot of bears in 2014 because three sets of triplets were born at Orford that spring.” In other words, when the estuary is swarming with bears contentedly eating salmon tourists are less likely to assume logging is negatively affecting wildlife.

“A few years earlier there were no cubs,” said O’Connor. “That year there was a very small amount of logging going on compared to last year but people blamed the logging for the lack of bears. I tracked the days of the logging and the days the bears were in the estuary and there was no correlation.”

The problem was there were very few fish in the river that year and there are other foods for bears to eat in the forests. “They only come down to the river for the fish,” said O’Connor. “No fish, no bears.”

Sonora Resort, located on Sonora Island not far from Orford River, is rated by Forbes as one of the ten top, upscale, allinclusive resorts. It offers guests a five star experience in an area surrounded by young second growth forests and wildlife. “For the most part, we don’t get a lot of comment about the logging,” said Sean Ross, General Manager of Sonora Resort. “That’s one of the good things about working handin-hand with the forest companies. That

desire to work toward that goal of taking trees out while still maintaining those great visual viewpoints for the guests.”

Ross understands that both tourism and harvesting trees are big players in BC’s provincial economy. “Forestry feeds a lot of families. I think when forest companies and tourism companies have open and honest dialogue with each other—they’re completely transparent—great things can be done.”

A cultural tour includes a traditional greeting from the Homalco youth tour guides and a chance to paddle a traditional canoe across the estuary to see pictographs made by the Homalco who lived at Orford thousands of years ago. Everyone also gets to weave their own cedar bracelet and take a turn in the wildlife viewing towers to see early bears and the other wildlife that lives in the estuary. The tour ends with a salmon and crab feast and traditional dances performed by the guides.

And great things continue to happen at Orford. This year Homalco Wildlife Tours Inc. offered cultural tours in June, July and early August. While cultural tours were offered to extend the tour season—bears are only in the estuary from mid-August to late October—the mission statement was to “turn culture into cool in the eyes of the Homalco youth,” said O’Connor. “It’s been a wonderful thing and a big success.”

There’s much happening in Orford these days—all of it good. The forest resource and tourism industries are operating injunction with one another, in plain view. Mark Ponting confirms that this forestry/tourism partnership is long term. “This year we’re building road and harvesting near South Gate at the top of Bute Inlet. But we’ll be back at Orford next spring.” And so will the bears, the tourists and the Homalco youth.

A call was made for Homalco youth who had completed grade 12. The selected youth completed a two week cultural boot camp where they learned about cedar bark weaving and stripping, traditional dances and the Homalco language. “The group also went to Haida Gwaii to meet the Chief and Elders there and to see how the Haida are doing cultural tourism,” explained O’Connor.

Provincial Reforestation efforts began in the Beaver Lodge Lands and West Thurlow Island Museum at Campbell River

The first reforestation efforts in BC took place in 1931 right here in Campbell River. What is today known as the Beaver Lodge Lands was then a tract of logged off land owned by the Elk River Timber Company. This 1000 acre tract of land was donated to the British Columbia Forest Service for experiments in reforestation.

In the spring and summer of 1931 seventeen acres were planted with 15,000 Douglas-fir seedlings grown at the Green Timbers Nursery. Green Timbers Nursery was opened in 1930 in Surrey, British Columbia and was the first large-scale experimental nursery to be opened by the BC Forest Service. It was the primary forestry nursery in the province until the spring of 1939 when it closed because of the Second World War. At about the same time, another nursery was started in Campbell River to address the reforestation needs after the Great Sayward Fire.

The second reforestation efforts in BC took place in 1932 on West Thurlow Island. This was an experimental planting in order to figure out how to efficiently re-forest the province. The area had been logged between 1917 and 1929; the slash had been burned in 1922. Some natural reforestation had occurred in the area with fir, hemlock, cedar and some spruce and balsam, but it was not considered enough to be commercially viable.

The crew of 10-17 men planted two-

year old seedlings from Green Timbers Nursery using six-foot spacing. They primarily planted Douglas-fir, but they also planted some Sitka Spruce and Yellow Pine. Some recommendations to come out of the experiment were to have bigger bags for holding the seedlings, and to wait no more than three years after burning the slash to re-plant the area so that the undergrowth wouldn`t block the seedlings development.

The 10-17 man planting crew on West Thurlow was made up of relief workers. The relief worker program was an effort to minimize unemployment caused by the Great Depression. The men planted using grub hoes and mattocks. Each bag held about 100-150 seedlings and the bags were packed with moss to keep the seedlings from drying out.

The bags had both shoulder straps and belt attachments; however, the Museum of Campbell River Presents

Heather Soo As you know, it’s National Forestry Week, which just so happens to coincide with the beginning of mushroom season! Mushrooms – in all of their picturesque, often tasty, and always fascinating glory – are emerging vigorously in our area this year. Prolonged heat followed by rain have made for ideal conditions for mushrooms all over BC. Common forage species like Chanterelles (Cantharellus spp.), Matsutake (Pines; Tricholoma magnivelare), Boletes (Boletus spp.), Shrimp Russulas (my personal favourite; Russula xerampelina), and so many more make for a varied feast this time of year. Especially as the sun begins to fade, mushrooms are an excellent source of vitamin D and other essential nutrients. Not to mention: delicious!

Mushrooms also have a myriad of other uses from medicinal to dyes for cloth and as a canvas in the case of the Artist’s Conk.

Mushrooms are, however, only the figurative tip of a massive underground fungal iceberg hiding beneath the forest duff. The next time you’re in a

forest, gently peel back a bit of the mossy layer to reveal the decaying needles below (the duff). Often in this layer, you’ll be able to see many fine white filaments or threads snaking through the soil, especially in Douglas fir forests. These are part of huge networks of fungal masses that interact with trees, plants, and other fungi to make up an unseen network that supports our lush forests. A mushroom is the fruiting body of this massive subsurface mycorrhizae made up of many thin, root-like structures.

Research shows that some fungi via the mycorrhizae will exchange their nutrients for carbon of neighboring trees in a sort of resource economy.

The mycorrhizae can connect trees to other trees including other tree species and plants to participate in resource exchange that supports the plants as a community. The knowledge of how plant communities interact can aid us in better management of our forest resources, helping to determine how we harvest and what we replant for prolonged sustainability through encouraging these extensive subterranean plant-fungi networks.

Willow Point residents want ‘R1 only’ MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Lions Hall was overflowing Thursday night as Willow Point residents got their first say on a proposed development and rezoning application for three lots along Penfield Road between Goodwin and Holm.

The meeting was organized by McElhanney Consulting on behalf of Kent Laverdure of KLP Construction, who has purchased and would like to develop the three properties. Mark Degagne of McElhanney opened by telling the crowd of approximately 200 that they want to explore all options and address everyone’s concerns in developing their proposal for the city. The development application is currently on hold while they do so.

The property at 2500 Penfield Road, Degagne said, “is an oddly shaped property, and we didn’t

really know how to best configure that lot.”

So the architect created a design that would see four separate, twostorey, eight-apartment units. Across the street at 2405 Penfield, the initial design was to have three apartment units, along with two triplexes and two duplexes. At 2400 Penfield, the initial design was to turn the 14 lots into “a mix of single-family residences and duplexes.”

That plan was presented to the city. The city, Degagne said, recommended they apply to have the land rezoned RM-2. The sign then went up at the corner of Goodwin and Penfield announcing the developer’s plans, “and it seems all hell broke loose in the neighbourhood,” Degagne said, but he understands why neighbours reacted the way they did.

“RM-2 allows for 50 units per hectare, with up to 10 more units per

T h at d e s i g n at i on wasn’t reflective of what kind of development they had in mind anyway, so they’re perfectly okay with not continuing to follow that course. He

told the crowd that the RM-2 designation “is now off the table,” but he is hoping, through this series of consultations, to find some middle ground that everyone can be happy with and develop a plan that has the support of the neighbours so they can get the project underway.

Pacific Timber Supply Area (TSA) Members of the public are invited to review and provide comments on the timber supply analysis for the Pacific TSA until Tuesday, Nov. 15, 2016. The Pacific TSA, established July 15, 2009, covers approximately 698,000 hectares (ha) and comprises 30 blocks on Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast, the mainland coast and the Douglas Channel. Blocks range in size from 76 ha to 405,000 ha.

The timber supply analysis provides the chief forester with the information required to determine the allowable annual cut (AAC) – the maximum volume of timber to be harvested from the TSA each year – for the next 10 years.

“If there were three duplexes behind my house when I bought it, I would have paid $8,000 less for that house,” Beatty said. “I probably wouldn’t have bought it at all, actually.”

Discussions will continue as the developer and consultants try to find a way to “get enough families into that area to make the development pay for itself,” There was some concern that not everyone will be able to speak before council once the application gets to the approval stage, but Mayor Andy Adams said that would not be the case.

“We have had public meetings that have lasted three nights,” he said, assuring residents that everyone who wants to have a say will be heard by council.

don’t think we’re going to get our development passed, so it’s probably not even worth pursuing unless we change some things,” Degagne said, to which he received raucous applause.

Many in the room were wearing red stickers reading “R1 ONLY,” which was the overwhelming response Degagne and KLP Construction received when the floor opened for

feedback.

The consensus seemed to be that everyone knew those properties would be developed eventually, but they were under the impression – and many claim they were expressly told by the city – that those lots could only ever be developed as single family homes.

“My personal view is that the only acceptable development there would be R1, as has been planned by the existing zoning and the mayors and councils that have gone before us,” said Burk Quintrell, who called for a show of hands from those who agreed – a call to which most hands went up in agreement. Mike Beatty, who lives on nearby Joanne Drive, summed up the views of the crowd.

add to those efforts.

“With the pier screen we want to expand on these opportunities through innovative and user-friendly technology for sharing stores and enabling live underwater observation in a free, year-round accessible installation,” Wunsch said.

He added that the whole system would be waterproof and vandalresistant and visitors would be sheltered from inclement weather by an open rain shelter around the kiosk.

The project is worth $ 1 1 2 , 0 0 0 ( i n - k i nd and cash). Funding of $40,000 has already been confirmed, includ-

ing $20,000 from the Rotary Club of Campbell River, $15,000 from Fortis BC and $5,000 from Ocean Networks Canada.

The society has asked the City of Campbell River for $12,000.

Whether or not the society will receive that money still remains to be seen as at last week’s Tuesday meeting council put off making a decision.

Council voted to defer the item to 2017 financial planning sessions that are coming up in early December.

The item will be up for discussion as a Service Level Change Request for next year’s budget.

The Discovery Passage Sealife Society, the group behind the Aquarium, is hoping to make that a reality – as early as next spring.

The society is trying to secure funding to install an outdoor touch screen kiosk at the pier that will highlight the local marine world, as well as local ocean science projects and technology.

A remotely controlled underwater video camera would stream live images to the pier screen to give viewers a glimpse into what’s happening below the surface.

The kiosk would be accessible year-round and tell the stories surrounding the pier and Dis cover y Pass age through short highquality video documentaries, images, graphics, text and animations and wildlife guides.

Odour bylaw wafts its way through approval process

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

City council is moving forward with bylaw amendments that, if approved, will crackdown on nuis ance odours.

Council, at last week’s meeting, gave first and second reading to regulations that seek to ban commercial and industrial business owners from discharging or emitting offensive odours, as determined by the city bylaw officer.

The move was prompted by a homeowner’s complaint in April concerning the deep fr yer exhaust odours emanating from a restaurant on the Island Highway. City Clerk Peter Wipper said in a report to council last month that fumes from the restaurant are vented through a flue at the back of the building which is at a similar height to the complainant’s outdoor patio roughly 30 feet away.

Coun. Larry Samson said at last week’s council meeting that he could

sympathize with what the homeowners were going through.

“I do support the motion. It is our basic right to enjoy our home and home includes the yards and everything else,” said Samson, adding that the city needs to be proactive in heading off conflict before it happens, particularly in light of the city’s push to bring residential into the downtown core. “As we develop downtown and we’re trying to bring in commercial as well as residential, I think it’s important we have clear guidelines on the commercial component which is the restaurants; that they do have the onus on them to control the odour.”

Under t he by l aw amendments council is considering, nuisance odour deemed unlawful would include any odour in the air that is “harmful, poisonous, disgusting, repulsive, very unpleasant, offensive or interferes with the use or enjoyment of property, endangers personal health or safety, or

The bylaw would not apply to permitted combustion such as wood stoves and vehicle emissions. Wipper said that in the event a business was found to be out of compliance with the bylaw, the owner would be required to hire an independent odour specialist to recommend mitigation measures.

Mayor Andy Adams questioned, however, whether it was necessary to go so far as to require a business owner to hire a professional engineer licensed in odour control, as is laid out in the bylaw. Adams said engineers certified in HVACs, and other infiltration systems are “more than adequate to provide services and meet the majority of conditions we’re likely to be presented with.”

But Coun. Marlene Wright said she didn’t feel comfortable altering the original wording in the bylaw.

“I feel we’re playing with words here and that can be very dangerous,” Wright said. “This is a very serious matter and I know other municipalities have had problems with this kind of issue so I think we need to do our due diligence and be as careful as we can when we set a bylaw.”

Coun. Ron Kerr added that he “would hate” for the city to be challenged if the designation was loosened, and he urged council to get moving on the bylaw.

“It’s pleasant to debate this issue in chambers but it’s not pleasant to be held hostage in your own home by odour like these residents are, so let’s move ahead with this bylaw,” Kerr said.

In the end, council approved first and second reading of the bylaw, with Adams opposed. If the bylaw – which does not require a public hearing to pass – is approved, city staff will identify areas in the city where the potential for conflict with respect to nuisance odour exists and zone them appropriately.

News Storm Program When I played, it was unheard of for a player to go on to college hockey out of Junior B. It was Jungle B, 2 or 3 fights per game. Let’s put it this way, college scouts weren’t coming out to watch.”

Coach of the Campbell River Storm Junior Hockey Club, as he spoke to Rotarians two weeks before the start of a new season.

That’s no longer the case.

In the last two seasons, 10 Storm players moved onto college while 10 moved onto

higher tiered Junior levels.

Lee Stone was one of those Junior B players that had to pound the pavement to get to college landing in Arizona State in 2008.

“It’s my 4th year here.

In 3 seasons, he turned the franchise around capturing a league title, two medals including Gold at the BC’s and a Western Canadian Championship, outcompeting 138 other teams for the highest honour a Western Canadian team can achieve.

“This town cares about this team (average attendance 925 in a 1,000 seat arena), so what we do off the ice is important but I think, at the end of the day,

that’s what translate into success on the ice.”

‘Leave a Legacy’ is what the Storm coaching staff focus upon with all their players.

“The big thing for me is to make sure we have character people, like Kobe (Oishi) and Carter (Hikichi), who enjoy giving back and not just taking from the community for themselves. With what we have in CR, there are a lot of benefits for the players but they have to put in a little extra work.

Stone talked about the Storm scholarship fund,

On the ice, I could market myself as a success if I have one player in my career that makes it to the NHL but there’s future police officers, future firefighters, future lawyers and future school

Stone was joined by veteran players Kobe Oishi and Carter Hikichi.

TV Auction Canvass Kick-off Ian Baikie and David Heath have been the keys to our successful TV Auctions for many years now, and now have some help in the form of Susie Moscovich, who has taken up the challenge of chairing the Auction Canvass, and Matt Irwin, who has taken over the technical side of the project - things like upgrading and modernizing the Auction website.

The Canvas Team Captains have now handed out

the canvas sheets to club members and both Ian and Susie stressed the importance of getting out and doing the canvassing as soon as possible. We are a little

late getting the sheets out this year, and the Auction is a week earlier than in the past, so there is even less time to get all the data input into the system, proof read it, get all the photos taken etc.

Susie also urged us to “upsell” the donors - if they gave us items with a value of $50 last year, try and get them up to $75 or more. It’s the only way we can increase our fundraising so that we can do even more good

Wendy Mayers

Community Relations Manager

Most retirement communities offer activities and events that will appeal to a wide array of interests and most will be included in the package; on occasion there may be some that are additional.

Activities and Events are planned and facilitated by the staff and often involve speakers, educators and entertainers. Entertainment can be anything from movies to musicians, choirs and dancers. Popular games may include bingo, crib, bridge, scrabble and puzzles of all kinds. Intellectual or spiritual growth activities might include travelogues, educational seminars, chapel services and bible study.

An active, vibrant community will offer fitness classes such as yoga, fit for life and weight room orientation which will contribute to your overall health and wellness. Painting classes, craft projects and knitting groups will appeal to the creatively minded individuals.

Duck Dip Sales Continue.

Yvonne Pelletier-Paul, Duck Chair Dave Bazowski and Ron Fisher out selling tickets for the Duck Dip at Spirit Square.

Sales are going very well this year with all monies raised going to worthwhile community projects right here in the Campbell River area.

It is very important to many seniors to remain active and social with their long time friends and contacts outside of their Retirement Community. Transportation is available at most retirement communities and in many cases is included in the rental package. Medical appointments as well as shopping trips are often accommodated. Some communities offer special outings and excursions to local events and attractions. Bus outings often will go a little further afield to places like Sayward, Qualicum or Nanaimo. In nicer weather, trips may include walks at the Tyee Spit or picnics at any number of different sites. Local restaurants can also be popular outings for lunch or dinner; even a trip to a theatre performance could be on the roster. It could be that theatre tickets or the cost of a restaurant meal may be additional to your rental package but most other activities are part of the rent.

You can fight city hall; but be brief KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

City council has cut in half the amount of time presenters from the community are allotted after council approved a list of changes to how it conducts its meetings.

At last week’s Tuesday meeting, council adopted a set of bylaw amendments that will alter how long and when public delegations appear.

Delegations will now be afforded just five minutes instead of 10.

In addition, council

has also re-structured how presentations will be heard.

The practise has been to have all delegations at the start of the council meeting. Under the new rules, council will set aside 30 minutes at the beginning of its meetings to listen to as many delegations as possible and, if at the end of that half hour there are delegates still left to present, they will be moved to the end of the meeting.

City staff first presented the changes to city council over one year ago, in June, 2015 after the city

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

clerk began noticing that several presenters were coming forward to speak to council on the same night, making it challenging for staff to try and limit the amount of meeting time delegations were occupying.

“On evenings when several delegations are presenting, it can sometimes take more than an hour for them to be heard which reduces the amount of time that council has to address its own business,” City Clerk Peter Wipper said at the time. “Many councils across the province

place restrictions on presentations so that they are left with sufficient time to address their priority issues.”

Wipper said that by tweaking the system in Campbell River’s council chambers, it will give council more time to focus on its own pressing issues.

“A fundamental tenet of any meeting agenda should be to debate priority issues first,” Wipper said. “This way council has sufficient time to devote to its strategic priorities. Council should not be in a position of

having to rush important decisions at the end of a meeting because of the time taken by delegations at the beginning of a meeting.”

Wipper added that city staff reviewed past presentations to council and came to the conclusion that almost all could easily present and make their requests in less than five minutes.

He added that council always has the option of extending the time limit by majority vote.

In addition to the new time allotment, anyone who wants to appear

before council will now have to complete an application form with their name, the name of the organization they’re representing and their position in the organization (if applicable), as well as their topic and discussion points, and the action requested of council.

Council is also attempting to reduce the number of people who have to address council by no longer requiring every person who applies for a development permit to present.

Instead, development

applicants and/or their representative will only be allowed to address council if city staff is recommending that council deny their land use development application, or it has received some other negative recommendation.

Council’s new procedure amendments are based on the Ministry of Community Services Best Practices Guide and procedure bylaws from other communities including Burnaby, Kelowna, Nanaimo, Prince George, Saanich, Surrey and Victoria.
