Totem raised

Tla-o-qui-aht presence celebrated in Tofino ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

Tofino joined the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation at Anchor Park on Friday to celebrate the raising of a totem pole carved by master carver Joe David.

David carved the totem pole to honour the Tla-o-qui-aht’s hereditary chiefs, Ha’wiih, and gifted it to Tofino to be erected in the community as a celebration of the West Coast’s First Nations presence.

After the totem pole was in place, David told the Westerly News he was pleased and thankful to see such a large turnout show their support.

“Today was an incredJoe David ible day,” said Tla-o-quiaht councillor Terry Dorward. “It was a day that will go down in Tla-o-qui-aht history when master carver Joe David gifted the chiefs this beautiful totem pole that represents our traditional laws and teachings as Tla-o-qui-aht people and recognizes Tla-o-qui-aht sovereignty here in the Tofino area. Our hereditary chiefs need to be upheld. Our teachings and laws need to be in place and this is a reminder of it.”

About 100 youth ranging from 5-17 years old braved stormy conditions to hit the waves at Cox Bay over the weekend to celebrate the seventh annual Surf’s Up for Autism event.

Surf’s Up for children on autism spectrum ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

A blustery wind and heavy rainfall could not dampen the inspiring spirit of Tofino’s seventh annual Surf’s Up for Autism event at Cox Bay over the weekend.

“You can just hear the stoke,” the event’s founder Dennis Nerpio told the Westerly News from the beach on Sunday. “You can hear ‘Woo’s’ and the high fives and you can see the smiles just beaming and lighting up the beach…Regardless of the weather, we’re happy and we’re stoked and our families are happy to be out here enjoying Tofino and the ocean and the waves.”

Nerpio launched the event in 2012 after a life-changing surf-vacation with his son, who had been diagnosed with ASD and he has been ecstatic to share that “stoke” he experienced with a growing list of families.

“We’ve put that vocabulary in them, that word stoke, in each family that comes,” he said. “This is like a supportive vacation for them. They know they’re in good hands when they’re out here and they can just relax and be a family and that’s what’s important.”

The two-day event involves each young surfer hitting the waves alongside a surf instructor and behavioural interventionist as their families cheer from the beach.

Brandi Merrie of Langley B.C. was thrilled to watch her 11-year-old son enjoy the waves.

“Every single minute is just breathtaking,” she said. “Autism is a barrier almost everyday and today it’s not.”

Vancouver’s Tracy Schjelderup has been delighted to be a part of the event for all seven years and watch her kids participate.

“Every time I get to come to this beach it’s a normalizing experience in a world of chaos in autism,” she said.

“We get to be ourselves. No one’s judging.

Everybody is warm and welcoming and it’s just a really beautiful experience.”

Nerpio said the West Coast’s hospitality shines in abundance during the event.

“I love Tofino and the support that just comes out,” he said.

“We’ve been so appreciative of this town and the whole West Coast about how they’ve taken in these kids. No one blinks an eye no matter what happens…Everyone here is supportive of it all. It’s awesome. It’s just awesome.”

A large crowd braved Friday afternoon’s downpour to help erect a totem pole carved by Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation master carver Joe David.

From A1

Dorward added that the totem pole will serve as an important symbol of the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation’s presence.

“We are here. In 2018, we are still here. We have been displaced.

We’ve been dislocated. We’ve been marginalized in our own traditional territories and today we’re stepping out of these small little Indian Reserves that they put us in through the Indian Act and we’re saying, ‘No. We’re still here. We’re in all of Tofino and we’re in all of our traditional territory and we’re going to make our presence known.’”

“Our teachings and laws need to be in place and this is a reminder of it.”

– Terry Dorward Tofino mayor Josie Osborne called the event a “once in a lifetime experience.”

“We’ve been given an incredible gift by the Ha’wiih, the chiefs, of the Tla-o-qui-aht Nation,” she said. “I don’t think words can express how I feel and what a tremendous thing this is for the community of Tofino.”

She said David’s totem pole would help educate residents and visitors about the traditional territory they’re living in or visiting.

“I think this is the first time that the community has really come together this way and honoured the Ha’wiih,” she said.

“The Ha’wiih are the ones who have the responsibility for these lands, the ocean, this territory, the people and all living things in it.”

Courtenay-Alberni MP Gord Johns heralded the totem pole and raising ceremony as an important and significant step towards reconciliation.

“It’s a huge honour to be here and to witness really a historic event in Canada…I can’t think of another municipality or city throughout Canada that has taken this step towards reconciliation of actually officially recognizing that they are under the responsibility of the hereditary chiefs,” he said.

“Today the district of Tofino and the people of Tofino have come together to acknowledge that this is the traditional territory of the Tlao-qui-aht and that the Ha’wiih, the hereditary chiefs, are the ones who are responsible for these lands.”

No plans to kill wolves that attacked dog Conservation Officer says animals are not a threat to public safety

ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

The B.C. Conservation Officer Service does not plan to shoot the wolves responsible for killing an off-leash dog at Chesterman Beach on Sept. 1.

“The behaviour of killing a dog at large would not automatically make a wolf a candidate for destruction,” said Sgt. Stuart Bates of the COS. “If wolves need to be removed then we will make a plan then but, at this point, no plans are in place.”

Bates said conservation officers did not attend the scene of the attack, but worked with WildSafe-

BC’s Pacific Rim Coordinator Bob Hansen to investigate and, based on the information and photos they received, concluded that the dog had been killed by two wolves.

He said the wolves’ behaviour did not suggest that they are habituated or a threat to humans as the dog was not on a leash and was not accompanied by a person at the time of the attack.

“They’re not coming near people to attack pets,” he said adding all dog owners must keep their pets on a leash.

“Wolves will not tolerate other dogs in their territory. They will attack coyotes, other wolves and

dogs. They see them as competition and as a food source.”

He said this was the West Coast’s first reported wolf attack on a dog in 2018 and advised all West Coast residents to educate themselves on co-existing with wildlife.

“Ucluelet and Tofino is one of those few areas of the province where we actually have wolves around residences,” he said.

“It’s very rare that wolves will come anywhere near residences…Wolves do not want to be anywhere near people.”

Anyone who spots a wolf is encouraged to contact the COS at 1-877-952-7277.

“Sightings of wolves are always good because it lets us track the wolves behaviour,” Bates said.

“We’re not going to jump to any conclusions just over a sighting, but we can track the wolves’ behaviour and their travel patterns and, if we do need to intercede, we’ll have a pretty good idea where to start.”

WildSafeBC is hosting a weekend’s worth of events to help residents brush up on their wildlife knowledge from Sept. 15-16, including Wild Pacific Trail walks events at Thornton Creek Hatchery. For more information about these events, visit WildSafeBC Pacific Rim’s Facebook page.

B.C. VIEWS

Canada’s carbon tax house of cards is falling down If you filled up at the Shell station on Sumas Way in Abbotsford last week, you paid $1.38 per litre of regular gasoline. The Husky station on Quadra Street in Victoria was charging $1.44, the same price as in 100 Mile House, and a penny a litre more than in Cranbrook. In Langley, Surrey and other locations within the Metro Vancouver transit tax area, prices were as high as $1.47.

That’s drifting towards the all-time North American record set in Metro Vancouver this past April, where $1.62 per litre beat the record set in Los Angeles in 2008.

April 1 was the date of the latest increase in B.C.’s carbon tax on fuels, already the highest in Canada. It now sits at $35 per tonne of carbon dioxide emissions. That’s about 8.5 cents per litre of gasoline or 10 cents for diesel, once you add

the GST that is charged on top of bates. Campbell’s government even it in the Canadian tradition. To fill mailed everyone a nice cheque to help the medicine go down. up a full-sized pickup truck, it’s an extra $10 or so for carbon tax.

Another sham: in May, the B.C. government announced $1.5 million to help my alma mater Langara College “reduce its carbon footprint.”

The money is to replace worn-out ventilation fans.

That’s right, old electric motors that run on carbon-free hydro power are replaced with new ones.

Tickets for Tofino’s inaugural Folk Festival on Thanksgiving weekend are selling fast, so be sure to get yours before they’re gone, says event organizer Jess Brickell.

An extensive lineup of local talent and high quality headliners like Jesse Roper and Jon and Roy are confirmed.

The festival will span across three venues: the Tofino Legion, the Maq Pub, and the Maq Lounge. Folk Fest artistic director and musician Steve Bick said the new event was unofficially organized by a budding non-profit called the Arts Incubator.

“We are bringing all these venues together to work on one festival with a common goal: creating unity in the arts,” Bick said, adding that The Maq Hotel is essentially putting the event on.

“The owners of the hotel [John and Denise Hooks] have been really generous to help fund it,” he said.

Jesse Roper is scheduled to play at the Legion on the Friday night and Jon and Roy will play at the Legion on Saturday. The Maq Pub will have shows all night long and The Maq Lounge will feature pop-up shows in the afternoons.

“All the artists that have agreed to join the bill will be making an appearance to do a short acoustic set,” notes Bick.

“There is always going to be something on,” echoes Brickell. “From the early afternoon until the middle of the night.”

She went on to say that The Maq Lounge will boast a kid-friendly atmosphere for the early afternoon performances.

Folk artist Oliver Swain and Vancouver duo Old Soul Rebel are coming out too.

“And a lot of local acts who live here [in Tofino] and Ukee,” said Bick.

Tickets to the Tofino Folk Festival can be purchased at The Maq Hotel or online at: tofinofolkfestival.com.

The $50 early bird all-access festival ticket price has been extended, and, to sweeten the deal, Folk Fest ticket holders will be entered in a draw to win a surfboard donated by Storm.

“The first 200 people to buy tickets will be entered in a draw to win [the surfboard]. It’s a super nice board,” said Brickell.

Field School instructors Carrie Harbidge, far left, and Ariane Batic, far right, took students through a scavenger hunt at the UCC on Friday night during a barbecue held to celebrate the program’s arrival at Ucluelet Elementary School.

Field School set to inspire future stewards

ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

The Raincoast Education Society’s Field School program has officially arrived in Ucluelet.

The program offers hands-on educational experiences to students from Kindergarten to Grade 7. Field school instructors work with each class’ teacher to connect field trip experiences to the school’s curriculum. Field School has been a popular success at Tofino’s Wickaninnish Community School, where it is entering its fourth year, and Raincoast Education Society’s executive director Mark Maftei said he is “thrilled” to be offering it to every

student at Ucluelet Elementary School for the first time.

“They’re going to muck around in the bog.

They’re going to do beach seines...They’re going to do a tonne of cool stuff,” he said. “Every week is going to be something fresh.”

The RES hosted a barbecue at the Ucluelet Community Centre on Friday where Ucluelet’s first-ever Field School instructor Carrie Harbidge told the Westerly News that she is eager to help students explore their surroundings.

“I’m excited to get outside with the kids and get them learning more about their local environment in a hands-on setting; getting them out of the classroom and into the bogs, into the ocean and into the forests,” she said.

She added the program will help raise the next generation of environmental stewards.

“For us to protect our environment we need to know about our environment. If we don’t know about it, we don’t value it,” she said. “We have to feel a connection to it, otherwise kids won’t grow up to preserve it.”

Tofino’s Field School instructor Ariane Batic said she has seen the program help students understand.

“Their faces light up on issues or topics that maybe they didn’t fully grasp,” she said. “When they’re in it and they’re a part of it and they’re experiencing it for themselves, they can really understand a concept that’s really important.”

The program costs approximately $42,000

to operate and is made possible thanks to donations from community members and local businesses, including a $30,000 donation from Jamie’s Whaling Station.

“It’s a perfect spot because of the communities that we operate in. They are small enough that we can offer the program to every single kid and we have support from people who really value this,” Maftei said. “The fact that we’re able to do this is a testament to the level of support we get from individuals and from businesses as well. It’s huge. It’s really a perfect situation where you’ve got a small town that really cares about this kind of stuff that also happens to be in a beautiful area of pristine wilderness.”

Healing one day at a time Success with changing lifestyle habits to ‘heal what ails you’ increases when a written plan is devised that is personalized, meaningful and timely.

Every person’s body is unique and therefore lifestyle change plans need to be unique; one size does not fit all. Attempting to change multiple habits quickly is not only challenging but may leave you feeling stressed and unwell. A plan should include adding a variety of items and taking others away as health is not achieved by diet and exercise alone. Optimal diet goals are those that are based on consuming high quality foods such Tracy as organic meats and dairy, fresh vegetables and fruit and non-GMO whole grains without preservatives. Fats should be mostly organic olive, coconut and nut oils purchased in glass bottles. Physical activity reduces stress but needs to be enjoyable. Include plans for relaxation; don’t underestimate the healing powers of laughter. Quality sleep is vital to healing.

Start with the easiest habits as success will build confidence to tackle the difficult ones.

Include small achievable goals and the actions needed to achieve those goals followed by organizing the goals in the order you want to work on each.

Keep your plans fluid so that it can be modified as goals are achieved or circumstances change.

ONE LEVEL RANCHER!

After you have developed your plan the next step is prepare. Purge your kitchen of processed foods containing sugar, MSG, high fructose corn syrup and white starches replacing these with grass fed beef, free range chickens and eggs, wild fish, non-GMO whole grains and organic fruits and vegetables. When organic meats and poultry are not available purchase low fat options as toxins have an affinity for fat.

Beware of dairy as ice cream, butter and cream are high in fat and therefore toxins. Organize your exercise and relaxation spaces or plan your route and time for walking in nature. Create a bedroom space that Lister will provide the best sleep setting times for going to bed and walking up. Quality sleep happens between 10 pm and 6 am as this is our natural melatonin and cortisol cycle.

Connecting with people is vital to health and fostering positive relationships with loved ones reduces stress. Hugs release oxytocin which is a natural antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and wound healer. We have oxytocin receptors in our backs and when we are hugged they are released into the blood stream contributing to the healing process.

Ucluelet mayor will not run for reelection

Harbour master, municipal councillor and former mayor put their names on the ballot ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

Ucluelet’s mayor Dianne St. Jacques will not seek re-election this fall.

St. Jacques served as Ucluelet’s mayor from 1999-2008 and took a break from municipal politics before returning to the mayor’s seat in 2014 when she defeated incumbent mayor Bill Irving by nine Dianne St. Jacques votes, 303-294.

She told the Westerly News that she had contemplated running for another term, but ultimately decided that it’s time for Ucluelet to have new leadership.

“I really feel that it’s time for somebody younger and fresh who knows the community and has great ideas and lots of energy for it. It’s time to hand it over,” she said. “I will miss it unbelievably because I really enjoyed it. Obviously it’s a great community and I think we’ve gotten some good things done…I love representing Ucluelet and I’m proud to do that; I always have been.”

St. Jacques pointed to Ucluelet’s Official Community Plan update as a top highlight of her last four years as she believes it will give incoming developers a clear vision of the direction Ucluelet’s community wants to go. She also cited partnering with the Toquaht First Nation to launch the Barkley Community Forest Corporation, which netted a surplus of $1 million split between the partners in 2017, its first year of operation, and

“I will miss it unbelievably because I really enjoyed it.”

– Dianne St. Jacques securing Ucluelet’s former Coast Guard lands for the district as key victories she will remember from her final term.

She said Ucluelet is well set up for success and advises whoever replaces her to stay enthusiastic.

“You’re the face of the community,” she said. “Have a great positive energy, keep your sense of humour and have fun with it because there’s a lot of really great things that can be accomplished.”

With St. Jacques out of the running, Ucluelet will select a new mayor on Oct. 20 and the ballot is filling up with at least three candidates vying for the position.

Former mayor Bill Irving and current councillor Randy Oliwa have both announced they will be running and they will be joined in the race

by Ucluelet’s harbour master Kevin Cortes .

Cortes announced his candidacy for mayor last week and told the Westerly News he will provide an energetic and transparent voice to Ucluelet’s government.

“At this point in time, the village is moving forward and I think it needs direction. I believe I can give it direction,” he said. “I believe it needs open, honest and transparent governance and that’s who I am…What you see is what you get with me.”

Cortes said he plans to build a more transparent government where decisions made during in camera meet-

“If you are voting a certain way, you should be able to stand up and say, ‘This is why I voted that way,’” he said. “When things go in camera, I don’t think it all gets out, how it was voted and who voted and why they voted the way they did. I think that information should be public to people because it’s a public decision.”

Kevin Cortes The lifelong Ucluelet local said he has volunteered through Ucluelet’s school system and with the RCMP as an Auxiliary Constable and enjoys giving back to the community he loves.

“I have the energy. I have the focus.

I have the time to be able to do this at this stage in my life and I think it’s a positive move,” he said.

Municipal councillor Randy Oliwa told the Westerly News in April that he planned to run for mayor and he made that decision official by announcing his candidacy last week.

He told the Westerly on Monday that the feedback he’s received about his candidacy so far has been “amazing,” with encouragement coming from longtime and new community members as well as officials throughout the region.

Oliwa has served under three mayors during his three terms on council and said he has learned from each of them over that 10-year period.

“The electric bikes are a blast!! Must try!! Fun! Fun! Fun!”

I’ve been given and apply them to this next four years. There will be no downtime. It’s out of the gate, it’s ready to go,” he said. “I believe the community has invested in me by electing me three consecutive terms.

They’ve invested in me, not just financially, but also I’ve gained some intellectual and intricate knowledge of the operations of the municipality. For me, it’s payback time. I’ve got plans in Randy Oliwa place. I’ve got innovative ideas, pen put to paper, ready to go. They’re ready to launch.”

He said one of those ideas is to implement a two-day workshop immediately after the election for Ucluelet’s new council to meet with district staff and be brought up to speed and onto the same page around municipal policies, bylaws and plans.

He added that he is not surprised to see an influx of mayoral candidates in the race this year.

“I think Ucluelet has a very high percentage of community leaders and champions and they’re willing to step forward and pick up the challenge to represent their community,” he said. “It really is an incredible position to be in, so I understand why it would be attractive to those people that I’ve worked with for years in the community.”

Bill Irving announced his candidacy in July and told the Westerly on Monday that he’s been listening to feedback from the community and affordable housing is at the top of

BLACK ROCK OCEANFRONT RESORT www.blackrockresort.com Tel: (250) 726-4800

local minds. He added that he lived through housing struggles when he moved to Ucluelet 40 years ago.

“When I first moved Ucluelet, housing was an issue quite frankly.

I lived in a trailer, on people’s couches and in subsidized housing for a while and I know exactly what that means to young families and young individuals,” he said.

“It’s such an important thing to recognize that there’s people when you Bill Irving talk about affordable housing. You’re not just talking about a building, you’re talking about people.

So, that’s a huge issue for the West Coast.”

Irving believes there is a lot of momentum coming into this election and is excited to see a large lineup of candidates running for mayor and council.

“There are huge issues that Ucluelet is facing and to have that kind of energy and public discussion is enormous,” he said He suggested Ucluelet’s new mayor and council will need to be aggressive out of the gate.

“Ucluelet was really quite a powerful spokesperson for West Coast issues like fishing, forestry, tourism development et cetera and I think the new energy from council needs to be able to hit the ground running on those issues,” he said. “Otherwise we tend to fall behind fairly quickly because Port Alberni and Tofino are being very active on those fronts, so we have to be very aggressive.”

Pipeline decision puts spill response plan in limbo KATYA SLEPIAN Black Press

Plans to build six new spill response bases along B.C.’s coast are up in the air after last week’s court decision to halt the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.

The six locations were part of a $150-million funding injection for marine safety that also included about 120 new hires and 43 new vessels.

The money was to be collected by Western Canada Marine Response Corp. from an impending toll on the expanded pipeline.

The corporation is an industry-funded organization tasked with responding to and cleaning up spills along B.C.’s coast.

But all of those plans are on hold now, according to its communications director Michael Lowry.

“We started working with Trans Mountain about five years ago on proposed enhancements for spill response on the coast,” said Lowry.

“So these enhancements have always been tied to the pipeline” by the National Energy Board.

Last Thursday, the Federal Court of Appeal shot down Ottawa’s approval of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion on the grounds of environmental risk and Indigenous consultation.

The decision found that the National Energy Board “unjustifiably defined the scope of the project under review not to include project-related tanker traffic.”

This allowed the board to ignore any harm increased tanker traffic could cause to Southern resident killer whales along the B.C. coast.

The court’s ruling means that the National Energy Board will have to redo its review of the Trans Mountain

Western Canada Marine Response Corp. launched the first of 40 vessels for the Trans Mountain expansion project on June 12 in Prince Rupert. pipeline and the feds will have to reengage with Indigenous groups.

Its decision effectively put the $150 million in spill response improvements on hold.

The proposed spill response enhancements, Lowery said, were meant to reduce response time from six hours to two hours for Vancouver Harbour and down from 18-72 hours to six hours for the rest of the coast.

“But based on the ruling last week, there’s some uncertainty on what the next steps are,” said Lowry.

“We’ve put a pause on the work on our bases.”

The six bases would have been built in Vancouver Harbour, near Annacis Island in the Fraser River, in Nanaimo, Port Alberni, the Saanich Peninsula and Beecher Bay near Sooke.

The problem, Lowry said, is that several 25-year leases have already been signed.

“We’ve got leases in place with Port Metro Vancouver, the Fraser River, Nanaimo Port Authority and the Port

Alberni Port Authority,” said Lowry.

“The next step for us was to proceed to issuing construction tenders. That’s paused right now.”

Lowry said that currently, the corporation won’t try to make any changes to those leases.

Instead, they’ll wait and see what happens with the pipeline expansion.

Some work has already started on the shipbuilding side.

“We have vessels being built in Prince Rupert, we have some being built down in Washington and we have some being built overseas,” he said.

“We can’t stop that work.”

Some of the new 120 planned employees have already been hired, Lowry said, but noted that they’ll keep their jobs because of the corporations phased-in hiring process.

“We’re bringing employees on based on the arrival of vessels so that we always have crew to man the new vessels,” he said.

“It’s certainly a bit of a balancing act.”

Multiple thefts at Toquaht Bay ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

Police are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying the thief, or thieves, who broke into approximately nine parked vehicles and a shed at Toquaht Bay’s Secret Beach Campground sometime overnight between Sept. 2-3.

Sgt. Steve Mancini Ucluelet RCMP detachment commander Sgt. Steve Mancini said a red and black Honda EU3000iS inverter

“Windows were smashed out in order to gain access to the vehicles.”

– Sgt. Steve Mancini generator was taken from the shed and that the vehicles were rummaged through while the owners were out kayaking.

“Windows were smashed out in order to gain access to the vehicles,” he said.

Anyone who has any information regarding the thefts should immediately call the Ucluelet RCMP at 250-726-7773 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

“It’s a big detachment area and we can’t be everywhere at once,” he said. “Having

the locals assist us reduces the amount [of crime] that happens in the future.”

Naked pedestrian apprehended Ucluelet police apprehended a naked pedestrian near Howler’s Family Restaurant around 11:45 a.m. on Sept. 5.

“We had multiple calls received in a short amount of time of a naked male walking on the sidewalk through town,” said Ucluelet RCMP detachment commander Sgt. Steve Mancini. “There were lots of reports and people put us to his location pretty quick.”

He said the naked man was seen walking into town from the Co-op Gas Bar and was apprehended by police without incident. The man, a local resident in his 40’s, is not facing criminal charges.
