Remembering Alex e was a man who, in his retirement, gave more of himself and his accumulated wealth than anyone could have expected. But Alex A. Campbell Sr.’s body gave out on him too soon. The Thrifty Foods co-founder, community booster and philanthropist died early Tuesday morning at age 70, after a lengthy illness. His wife, Jo, remembered her husband of 49 years as an “amazing man who loved life.” “He constantly gave of himself to improve the lives of others,” she stated in a release. “He believed strongly in the importance of paying it forward – giving back in gratitude of what you have received. His dedication to outstanding community service stands as an example to us all, and he will be dearly missed.” The Victoria-born Campbell worked to help various charities on the Island after retiring from the grocery business, both in a leadership role and as a face for fundraising efforts. Campbell contributed more than $2 million in personal and corporate donations to the Victoria Hospitals Foundation, but gave much more in terms of his time. “He was one of those people that made you want to be your best whenever you were around him,” said Melanie McKenzie, the foundation’s executive director. Campbell received numerous awards in the later stages of his career, as well as in retirement, including the Order of British Columbia in 1999 and a 2011 Leadership Victoria award.

“Fake” or “imaginary” money used by the world’s banks is making it hard for families to survive, according to the organizers of Victoria’s version of Occupy Wall Street. Occupy Victoria, like its New York City counterpart, aims to bring to light the intrinsic problems with banks lending and reporting money they don’t actually have, said organizer Greg Hill. “The fiat-issued money – fake money – put forward by the federal reserve bank in the U.S. has caused the hidden tax of inflation to cause the cost of food to skyrocket,” said Hill, a Saanich resident. “We can’t fix the current system using the same line of thinking we used to create it.” Hill and Esquimalt resident Josh Steffler have organized Occupy Victoria, which happens at the B.C. legislature tomorrow (Oct. 15). They hope people will come out to listen to speeches that touch on why fiat money and fractional reserve banking are spreading the gap between the rich and the rest of the population. Steffler linked the issues to Victoria-area families asking for a mortgage from a bank. “Now (the banks) have a hold on people’s real assets and they have to pay back the banks with real money, real work,” he said. “If you or I tried to do that, we’d be indicted for fraud because we’re not allowed to lend money we don’t have.” Occupy Wall Street started in New York on Sept. 17 and the concept has spread to cities all over the world. Budd Hall from the University of Victoria’s faculty of human and social development attended the first meeting of the local event’s organizers. “Ten days ago we had the first meeting here in Victoria,” Hall said. “I’m a student of social movements and I have not seen a social movement spread this quickly, ever.” The event runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and is open to the public. ecardone@vicnews.com

Refreshing our walks Fundraiser launched to add water fountains along regional trails Edward Hill News staff

espite being lined by thick forest and brush, and occasionally farm fields, Greater Victoria’s two regional trails are a bit barren when it comes to water. In past years, volunteer marathon coach Tom MacDonald had water jugs dropped off by car for 70 or so people struggling through epic 30-plus kilometre training runs. It would be easier, he thought, if there were a few drinking fountains along the way. Within the next few years he may get his wish. Capital Regional District parks, stewards of the Galloping Goose and Lochside regional trails, agreed to install a series of fountains – if MacDonald raises the money. Last week he launched A Drop in the Bucket, a fundraising campaign with the modest goal of raising $54,000 to cover the cost of installation and maintenance of nine drinking fountains – three per year for the next three years. “The trail system is fantastic. Two million people use it each year for running or biking or walking,” said MacDonald, who works as the executive director of the Local Government Management Association. “People love the trail system. We just want to work to enhance it.” So far, so good. Even with relatively little publicity, he’s raised $8,400, the majority of that from one family who sponsored the cost of an entire fountain. People who donate $1,000 or more will earn a commemorative plaque. A former municipal staffer for Oak Bay, MacDonald knew pitching an idea to the Capital Region with no money likely wouldn’t work. CRD parks was enthusiastic about the project, but it wasn’t going to vault to the top of the priority list. “We agreed on a budget that I would fundraise. There won’t be a shovel in the ground until I deliver the cheque,” MacDonald said. “And it’s not like we’re ask-

ing for millions. It’s $54,000 over all, nine fountains at $6,000 each.” That relatively low cost inspired the A Drop in the Bucket campaign name – due to the link with water and tits impact on taxpayers. “There is almost no cost (to taxpayers),” he said. “There will be some (CRD) staff time, but it’s a drop in the bucket for taxpayers.” CRD parks is still working on potential water fountain locations on the Galloping Goose and Lochside trails, but it wants them to mesh with future rest stations, similar to one built at Atkins Road. TD Bank has sponsored a series of rest stops. Lorraine Brewster, manager for visitor services at CRD parks, said they plan to spread the fountains along the trail as

best as possible, but there needs to be an existing waterline nearby. “We really support this initiative,” Brewster said. “This will really enhance the trail system for runners, walkers and bikers.” MacDonald said the fountains will be designed so people can easily fill water bottles and have a ground-level water dish for pets. “Everybody I talk to says this is a great idea,” he said. “People love the trail system and support from folks is gratifying. Anyone who loves the trail system – runners, dog walkers – can help make this project work.” See www.adropinthebucket.ca for more information or to donate. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

Chris Riddell is in the process of filling out paperwork he feels he has no choice but to do if the Mustard Seed Street Church hopes to continue serving people in need. For the first time in the non-profit society’s history, the executive director is taking out a collateral mortgage on the Mustard Seed’s Hope Farm Healing Centre north of Duncan, where drug addicts go to recover. “That’s something I’d never thought I’d see,” Riddell said of mortgaging the property. “The coffers are bare. We’re doing that as a backup.” The Mustard Seed, which also operates a food bank in Victoria, has seen the worst decline in monetary donations in six years. And since it receives no government funding, the society’s Brent Palmer already tight $2.2-million annual operating budget may have to be further trimmed. To make matters worse, the society has exhausted its $100,000 rainy-day fund to cover operational expenses, such as heating and lighting bills and putting gas in vans used to pick up food donations at grocery stores. “Food-wise we’re holding our own, but at the same time you can’t take a turnip and put it in the gas tank of a vehicle and expect the trucks to run,” said Brent Palmer, Mustard Seed food bank director. “I guess, long run, if we don’t get the finances in then we’ll seriously have to look at making cutbacks.” Every month, the food bank feeds an average of 6,800 people a month who come from across Greater Victoria. Times are tough for everyone. People are being more frugal with their financial donations, but Riddell hopes the community will help in the coming months, just as it did by contributing about $1 million in donations late last year. The food bank just launched the beginning of its Christmas campaign yesterday (Oct. 13) with the third annual 48-hour Great Canadian Food Fight, a food-drive challenge that involves Halifax, Regina and Victoria. Every dollar generated and non-perishable food item collected will help bolster the bank balance and top up the shelves. Food Fight donations can be dropped off at all major grocery stores.

Government red tape could stall sewage program Sam Van Schie News staff

The Capital Regional District may need an extension on building its sewage treatment plant, with the province yet to give a firm funding commitment. In 2006, the province gave the region 10 years to establish secondary sewage treatment, ending the current practice of pumping liquid waste into the ocean. Then-premier Gordon Campbell said his government would fund one-third of the cost.

But the deal has yet to be put in writing. “It’s going to be impossible to meet the current deadline,” said Denise Blackwell, a Langford councillor who chairs the CRD sewage treatment committee. “It’s a frustration for sure. We’ve had no indication of when they’ll come forward with the funding.” Ida Chong, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, said the project proposal is working its way through regular government process and is currently being reviewed by the treasury

board. “This is a large project and unfortunately it does take this long to go through,” Chong said. “We need to know exactly how we are going to roll it out, and over how many fiscal years, before any funding announcement.” Chong and Blackwell both stressed that the sewage project will still go ahead. “If the CRD wants to extend the deadline, that’s something that can be considered by the minister of Environment,” Chong said. Blackwell said it’s hard

to know how a delay would impact the overall project cost, estimated at $782 million. However, if the province delays too long, Blackwell said a federal grant secured to cover 25 per cent of the project will expire. “Our biggest question right now is: when? When will we get the funding? When can we move forward?” Blackwell said. Chong wouldn’t speculate on the answers: “Even I don’t know that.” news@goldstreamgazette.com

Municipal candidates line up As the work day closes today, so too does the 10-day window to file nomination papers for candidacy in the November civic election. By the News deadline on Wednesday morning, four candiates had officially filed in the Victoria race for mayor or council. Among them, newcomer Sean Murray. Other early birds to file include mayor Dean Fortin, and councillors Lynn Hunter and Marianne Alto. The remaining six city councillors are expected to run for another term. Also expect filing from prospective mayoral candidate Paul Brown and council candidates Shellie Gudgeon, Saul Andersen, Lisa Helps, Rose Henry, Ben Isitt, John Turner, Aaron Hall, Linda McGrew, and Sukhi Lalli. Steve Filipovic has yet to announce in which race he intends to run. ■ Seven Esquimalt council candidates have officially hit the election campaign trail. Four newcomers to council – Dave Hodgins, Bob McKie, Tim Morrison and Josh Steffler – declared their intent in May. Mayor Barbara Desjardins is seeking her second mayoral term. To date, no one has declared they will run against her. Coun. Meagan Brame is campaigning to secure her second term, and Coun. Lynda Hundleby has announced she will vie for a fourth council term. ■ As the window for nominations closes, three new names have been added to the hat in the contest for the Greater Victoria board of education. David Bratzer, Deborah Nohr, Richard Stern and Edith Loring-Kuhanga filed nomination papers with the school district this week, bringing the total number of candidates to 13. On Nov. 19, nine board of education trustees will be elected for the school district, on the same ballot as municipal elections for councillors. Oak Bay resident Nohr, 60, confirmed her candidacy for trustee as did Saanich resident Loring-Kuhanga, 53. Bratzer, 34, a Victoria police officer is also in the running, along with

Saanich resident Stern. None of the four ran in the last trustee election, in 2008. All nine current trust-

ees have also filed their nominations papers. They include board chair Tom Ferris, vice-chair Dave Pitre and trustees

Catherine Alpha, Jim Holland, Bev Horsman, Elaine Leonard, Michael McEvoy, Peg Orcherton and John Young.

OUR VIEW

A promise made should be kept It seems a little hypocritical to tell the Capital Regional District it must begin treating its sewage with a near-billion-dollar project, then backtrack on your commitment to pay for one third of it. That’s what the province appears to be doing, as we now hear their contribution is contingent on Ottawa being the first to show us the money. And as the CRD passes the five-year mark since studies on implementation of sewage treatment began, we have to ask why the funding still hasn’t been committed to the project by the senior levels of government. The regional district has already invested a huge amount of taxpayer dollars, abiding by what the province asked of them. The feasibility of building a facility has been investigated, a thorough plan was created and McLoughlin Point in Esquimalt was selected as the future home of a treatment plant. While all three levels of government are expected to pay an even share of the cost, it seems that only one level is truly walking the walk and trying to move forward on the project. We regularly hear that the cost of upgrading or building infrastructure rises the longer doing so is dragged out. The foot-dragging in this case is being done by the senior levels of government. If the B.C. Liberals and federal Conservatives are waiting on each other to act before progress can be made, it looks like we may be here a while. But if either level is truly committed to this project, discussions need to begin to allow the CRD to move ahead on this regionally significant project. The promise to work together with the federal government and the CRD to make the project happen – made by then-premier Gordon Campbell in 2006 – hasn’t been kept yet and is hindering progress. Our regional government shouldn’t move further on such an expensive project until it gets assurances that we won’t be left holding the bag on sewage treatment. What do you think?

But anyone fortunate enough to ride with the Tour knows it’s impossible to fully describe what it really is or means other than to say it’s the most rewarding two weeks they will likely ever experience. One thing for certain, there’s nothing quite like the Tour de Rock. Its life, energy and response from the public comes from and, I believe, is unique to Vancouver Island. And the Tour changes everyone who takes part in it. Chris Bush writes for the Nanaimo News Bulletin. photos@nanaimobulletin.com

Technology has become more important than art Judging by the plethora of “RIP Steve Jobs” that have gushed into my news feeds, it seems many of my Facebook friends have replaced art with technology in their lives. Or rather, have replaced adoration of the creative artist with adoration of the technological avatar. Today, that miraculous mandarin is Steve Jobs. Whether this cultural shift from passive consumption of art to passive participation in digital social media is really a significant sociological event remains to be seen, but this altered paradigm has definitely created new heroes and new has-beens. Beatles versus Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson versus Prince, or Lady Gaga versus Beyonce – passive popular culture has always responded to a dualistic manufactured consumer choice. No Coke, Pepsi. But the new digital age – with its fundamental binary electrons – demands it. In this case, Steve Jobs was the underdog challenger to the poor little rich computer magnate everyone loves to hate, Bill

Gates. Gates is arguably more important in the democratic shift to self-absorbed self-expression via accessible digital technology, but Jobs made it pseudo-sexy, and he also put a bit of good oldfashioned elitism back into the mix of this new, egalitarian digital age – a vestigial reaction derived from the olden days when the artist was king, and the medium his minion. This is obviously no longer the case. The medium is no longer simply the message, it’s also the text, the email, the post and the twit [sic]. The people have spoken, and they value technology supreme. Authors, post your musings on Facebook like the rest of us proletariats! Composers, anyone can record a classic techno-punk requiem with Pro Tools! Visual artists, our high-speed, high-def digital photos look better than your hand-developed prints and clumsy paintings! And the poetry of the digital future, like haiku, will be based on strict structural rules, or rather, ONE unhackable dogma –

Marathoners were inspiring I’ve never been more inspired. As I watched last weekend’s marathon, it wasn’t the so-called elite athletes that impressed me, but those who slogged it out mile after mile. The professional marathoners are expected to be good – and they were – but those runners who ran for the pure joy of running, through sweat and tears were the ones that left me in awe. I only wish I could run and be so happy doing it. P.M. Peterson Victoria

Arrogance is no substitute for ignorance Re: Dumb leaders attack smart meters (B.C. Views, Oct. 5) Ignorance and arrogance usually go hand in hand and Tom Fletcher seems to have more than his share of both. His latest column is yet another confirmation of that. In fact, it is quite obvious to any knowledgeable reader that he doesn’t have a clue of what he is talking about – specifically electromagnetic fields and how they work. A fifth grader would do a better job – and yet, he is allowed to write offensive articles and has the gall to ridicule a responsible informed decision made by a majority of local leaders on the basis of sound facts in order to protect the unsuspecting citizens.

Of course, not everyone can be knowledgeable in all fields of arts and science, however there is a place for everybody in our society. If Fletcher was an honest potato grower minding his own business and not harming anybody, I would have nothing against him – in fact I would respect his work. Instead, he somehow manages to write regular opinion columns for a newspaper chain which thousands of people read, trust and rely on.

The damage done to the public through misleading information and a totally biased attitude is immeasurable and inexcusable. I have no respect whatsoever for this type of behaviour. The very least that the public can demand from a journalist who has no knowledge of the subject he is writing about is to do his homework diligently which Tom Fletcher, in his infinite arrogance, certainly did not bother to do.

The money will be used to set up a permanent endowment fund that will fuel scholarships and financial awards, as well as international projects, teaching and research. In return, the graduate business program at UVic will be renamed the Sardul S. Gill Graduate School – another first. No similar Canadian institution has been named after an Indo-Ca-

He laboured all his life and encouraged me to pursue my education at a time when there were significant barriers to people of Indian descent in this country.” As he paid his own way through higher education, Gill worked in some of the same Island sawmills as his father before him.

Motel conversion rejected Micro rental units for low-wage single people got voted down by Victoria councillors last week. The new owner of the old Traveller’s Inn at 3025 Douglas St. proposed to convert the motel into warehouse storage and 45 studio apartments with rent ranging from $650 to $725 including utilities, cable, phone and Internet. Owner Mike Kelly proposed units be sized between 226 and 387 square feet. While the Burnside Neighbourhood Plan supports the development of rental housing, the area along Douglas Street has been reserved for wholesale, retail and service. The residential proposal doesn’t accommodate families or offer residents adequate open space. For these reasons, Victoria’s planning department recommended against the application. The city’s planning and land use committee voted against the application Oct. 6. The motel is one of several purchased since the former owner of the motel chain declared bankruptcy in 2009. rholmen@vicnews.com

In a continued effort to encourage higher rates of recovery, BCUOMA has built a strong support network across the province. Today, participation includes 207 brand-owner members, 37 collectors and processors, 480+ return collection facilities and more than 4,000 generators. In addition, BCUOMA is reprising its successful ambassador program this summer – with two ambassadors touring the province to educate and raise awareness of the importance of used oil and antifreeze recycling.

Although it’s commonly accepted that oil and antifreeze are not household garbage we can simply throw out, more than 1.3 million litres of used oil ends up in BC landfills every year. When you consider that it only takes one drop of oil to contaminate a million drops of water, the problem is clear: there’s just too many drops to count, too many to ignore. BCUOMA is a non-for-profit organization that encourages British Columbians to responsibly recycle used oil, oil filters, oil containers, used antifreeze and antifreeze containers. Since the launch of the program in 2003, British Columbians have done an exceptional job of recycling their used oil materials.

Protecting our province from the harmful effects of used oil and antifreeze must be a responsibility we all share, together. So please, next time you look to dispose of used oil or antifreeze materials, find a collection facility near you. Here are three easy ways to do so:

on Sea View Road in Saanich has sold for $6.1 million, the most expensive home sold so far this year in Greater Victoria. The 8,035-squarefoot West Coast Tudor mansion known as Miramar was designed by Percy L. James in 1928. It sits on a 2.25acres, has 500 feet of waterfront and was purchased by an Alberta couple. It was listed for $7.59 million in December 2010. Listing agent Georgia Wiggins of Remax Camosun closed the deal Sept. 20. The four-bedroom house had recently been completely renovated, with a master bedroom wing added. Wiggins said woodworkers were brought from Vancouver to work on the interior renovation. “The designers (Vancouver-based Richard Salter Interiors) had the woodworkers stay in the house for a few weeks before work began to get the flavour of the house,” she said. Sales of luxury homes have decreased slightly in 2011. There have been 147 sales over $1 million in the region so far this year, down from 161 for the same period in 2010. “If you look at this year over last we’re down about 10 per cent in terms of the number of (luxury) properties sold, but we’re kind of down 10 per cent overall.” said Dennis Fimrite, president of the Greater Victoria Real Estate Board. “Certainly the highend market moves a little slower when there are fewer purchasers around. Starter homes – those listed under $500,000 – are the hot commodity these days,” he added. “Builders on the West Shore are building them as fast as they can.” editor@vicnews.com

William Head actors break out of ‘same-old’ mould Latest production kicks off tonight on the prison stage Sam Van Schie News staff

In an isolated old castle where nothing changes, a young man longs to break free from the tired structure. It’s a situation inmates-turnedactors at William Head Institution can surely relate to as they get into character for their production of Gormenghast, opening tonight at the penitentiary. The fantasy classic, based on a trilogy of novels by Mervyn Peake and adapted for stage by John Constable, follows Titus Groan, a young king who secretly wants to leave Gormenghast castle, and a kitchen boy named Steerpike, who would gladly overthrow him. Intrepid Theatre’s Ian Case is directing the cast of nine inmates and three local actresses. He’d been holding onto a copy of the script, which a co-worker found for him in a bargain bin, eager for

a chance to use it. “The guys got right into it. We did casting and they got their lines in August, and when we started rehearsals in September they were completely off book,” said Case, who in previous years directed Elephant Man, Macbeth and Waiting for Godot at the prison. Ingrid Hansen directed and acted in CHALK at William Head last year and returns to the prison stage in the role of Fuchsia Groan, Titus’s wild sister and Steerpike’s lover. “I kept telling the guys they’re making us (actresses) look bad because we were still reading off the page and we’re supposed to be the professionals,” Hansen laughed. Indeed, the William Head on Stage theatre company has much to boast about. Run completely by inmates, it’s in its 30th year and on its 50th production – the company used to put on shows twice a year, back when offenders were bused downtown for performances. Still, the group runs without the support of any grants or external funding. The company relies on

Ingrid Hansen, as Fuschia, reacts in a scene from Gormenghast, as a Willam Head on Stage inmate performer cavorts with skeletons. The play opens tonight (Oct. 14) at the prison in Metchosin. its box office sales to fund future productions. Case says theatre fits well with the prison’s role of rehabilitating offenders to function in society.

“It teaches them to work together and trust each other,” he said. “It’s inspiring to see how they do that throughout the course of rehearsals.”

Hansen, who keeps in touch with some of last year’s actors who have since been released, said she was told by one man that before acting, he never thought he could be good at anything besides crime. “When people come up to them after the show and tell them they did a great job night after night, they slowly start to believe it, and their barriers come down,” Hansen said. Gormenghast opens tonight with a 7:30 p.m. show. Subsequent performances are Fridays and Saturdays through Nov. 12, with Thursday shows Nov. 3 and 10 at William Head Institution, 6000 William Head Rd. in Metchosin. Tickets are $20 and must be purchased in advance at My Chosen Cafe, 4480 Happy Valley Rd., online through www.ticketrocket. org or by phone at 250-383-2663.

Author Hodgins, illustrator Bridgeman capture book prizes The Master of Happy Endings, Uirapuru lauded by jurors A Victoria-area man’s tale of a widower’s quest to quell his malaise has earned the author this year’s Butler Book Prize. Jack Hodgins’ novel The Master of Happy Endings was acclaimed by the prize’s jurors as “an exuberant novel about the power of narrative to serve as a compass for human odysseys. “Hodgins’ story is as much about the terrain of the heart and spirit as it is about the phys-

ical world, and he moves confidently from one to the other, his literary skill in service to his rich imagination.” Also honoured during a gala ceremony Wednesday night at the Union Club of British Columbia was illustrator Kristi Bridgeman of Saanich, who won the Bolen Books Children’s Book Prize, for her artistic interpretation of the late P.K. Page’s book, Uirapuru. “Kristi Bridgeman’s extraordinary accomplishment in Uirapuru is to tell a story with illustrations so richly layered and complex, so warm with colour, humour and detail so as to draw the reader back into its haunt-

ing magic and back again, each rereading a discovery,” jurors wrote. “P.K. Page’s telling of a Brazilian legend is timelessly captured.” Both Bridgeman and Hodgins won $5,000 for their efforts. The City of Victoria Butler Book Prize was established by the city and Brian Butler, of Butler Brothers Supplies, in 2004. The Bolen prize was first awarded in 2008. The other four finalists for the Butler prize included Carla Funk, Stephen Hume, Sylvia Olsen and John Schreiber. Sarah N.

he was going to have to expand it if he kept going at that rate.” Only a few close friends and family members were privy to Campbell’s private side. “He could take a joke even if it was directed at him, which I made sure, in a lot of cases, it was,” Skinner

said chuckling. “That was my duty as his partner.” Campbell was highly regarded for his people skills and business prowess. “I think his business can be defined by his approach to people – the good, the warmhearted, engaged in community,” said

Victoria Mayor Dean Fortin. With Campbell as CEO, Thrifty Foods, which grew to 20 stores on Vancouver Island, Salt Spring Island and the Lower Mainland, was named one of Canada’s 50 Best-Managed companies four years running. Among his many accolades, Campbell was presented an honourary doctorate of laws by the University of Victoria in 2009. And given his generosity, leadership, unique customer service approach and humble personality, it was an easy decision for the business faculty to recognize him as its 2010 Distinguished Entrepreneur of the Year, said Ali Dastmalchian, dean of UVic’s Peter B. Gustavson School of Business. “He really represented what this business school, in many ways, stands for,” Dastmalchian said. “His thinking around service has always been ahead of his time.” Campbell was soft-spoken and humble, but he was a very competitive businessman, said Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard. “He had the huggable-bear image in the general community,” said Leonard, recalling times when he would receive a call from Campbell whenever he spotted fish being sold from a truck parked on the roadside. Campbell would remind Leonard that the business didn’t have a licence and wasn’t paying taxes. “He did everything by the book,” Leonard said fondly. “He was one of a kind.” Campbell was also a champion of the B.C. Cancer Foundation. He chaired its $10-million Inspire the World fundraising campaign and with his wife, donated $1 million to the campaign. The B.C. Cancer Agency’s Vancouver Island Centre’s new patient and family support centre was named in their honour. Details of a service are due to be announced in the coming days. emccracken@vicnews.com

Vic Marathon: the big picture Despite Toronto’s major cash prizes, Victoria still matters Travis Paterson News staff

Runners of all ages and levels capitalized on the perfect conditions of the 2011 GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon on Sunday with a pair of elites netting serious cash. Kenyan Thomas Omwenga led the day with a first-place time of two hours, 14 minutes and 33 seconds, breaking Steve Osaduik’s 2006 record of 2:16:49. Omwenga pulled away with $7,000 in prize money, making it well worth his trip. Were he Canadian he would have scored a course record bonus of $5,000 more. As it was, Omwenga won $4,000 for finishing under two hours and 15 minutes and $3,000 for being first overall. Lucy Njeri also banked $3,000 for first in the marathon, plus a $3,000 incentive for running under 2:38. That we’re seeing course records fall is part of an upswing in Canadian marathon running right now, said Brent Fougner, coach of the University of Victoria Vikes cross country and track running teams. Omwenga, for example, owns a marathon best of 2:10:44. Victoria was his second marathon in two weeks, having finished second at the Montréal Oasis Marathon on Sept. 26 with a nearly identical time of 2:14:35. “You have to think he’s capable of going a bit faster,” Fougner said, of Omwenga’s quick turnaround.

The finishers ■ A total of 9,961 runners finished out of 11,417 registered in all four events: 1,623 of 1,968 in the marathon; 5,076 of 5,918 in the half-marathon; 2,430 of 2,699 in the 8-km.

Despite acting as the B.C. championship (with local Ryan Day taking that honour in third place, 2:26:42), the Victoria marathon is best known as a destination event for long-distance runners and is shadowed on the national scene by this weekend’s Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon. “(Victoria’s) is a beautiful course and there’s always some quality athletes so people can witness a top runner, even if it’s not their top time. “(But Victoria) hasn’t attracted our top Canadians because you can only do so many in a year and the Toronto marathon has gone after top Canadians and internationals, making sure it’s a fast race,” Fougner said. Buzz around Toronto this week is about breaking Jerome Drayton’s Canadian marathon record of 2:10:09, which he set in Japan in 1975. At $36,000, the prize to do so is considerable. Organizers of the Toronto marathon have put up $1,000 for every year the record has stood. One of the runners who could do it is Vancouver’s Dylan Wykes, who warmed up by winning last month’s McNeill Bay Half Marathon in Oak Bay. Runners also prefer Toronto’s flat course to the inclines of Victoria. Weather conditions were perfect on Sunday, however, helping Port Moody’s Natasha Wodak join Owmenga and Njeri in the money group by setting the women’s halfmarathon course record. Wodak won an extra $1,000 on top of the $1,000 half-marathon prize when she broke Marilyn Arsenault’s 2009 course record by 12 seconds, with 1:15:27. Arsenault finished third in the half (1:18:03) and was the top masters runner in that event with another former Vike, Craig Odermatt, who was fifth overall (1:10:43).

Royals jerseys, Rockets hit Victoria this week

The Victoria Royals open a two-game set with the Kelowna Rockets tonight (Oct. 14) and Saturday, 7:05 p.m. at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre. This week also marks the release of Royals’ official replica hockey jerseys for purchase. Jerseys go on sale prior to tonight’s matchup beginning at 5:30 p.m. in the Royals’ Court merchandise store at Gate 1. Youth ($90) and adult size ($115) jerseys are available in both the road white and home blue colours. The Royals are coming off a rough weekend having lost three of four. During the stint the Royals were victimized by last week’s CHL player of the week Emerson Etem, who led the Medicine Hat Tigers with five goals during the Tigers’ two game visit to Victoria, Oct. 6 and 7. Etem, an Anaheim Ducks prospect from Long Beach, Calif., added another goal on Oct. 8 as the Tigers beat the Vancouver Giants, 5-4. The Royals are third in the B.C. Division with four wins in nine games.

It’s been called the silent killer, and it’s a major contributing factor for serious health problems such as heart disease. Yet many people still don’t know they have high blood pressure. That’s why the Heart and Stroke Foundation of B.C. and Yukon has hit the road with its preventative action program. Through the use of mobile blood-pressure clinics around the Capital Region, part of its Take the Pressure Down program, the foundation is giving people at risk of more serious health conditions a chance to

nip them in the bud. “We’ve seen some very good results,” program manager Caroline Macey said of the Greater Victoria campaign. “Last year we took about 4,500 blood pressures. We’ve been able to screen people, many of whom didn’t know they had hypertension (high blood pressure).

Besides setting up at permanent locations around the region, volunteers specially trained to interpret test results make stops at special events and jobsites – anywhere people aged 40 to 65 might gather. “We’re just trying to be everywhere,” Macey said. “It’s all about screening, monitoring and education. It’s really important that everybody over 40 has their blood pressure checked regularly. The good news is if people are willing to make lifestyle changes, they can see results and help lower their own blood pressure.” While such factors as ethnicity, gender and genetics are uncontrollable in relation to blood pressure, quitting smoking, lowering one’s alcohol intake, getting regular exercise and eating more healthy foods can help keep the numbers at an acceptable level.

VICTORIA NEWS - Friday, October 14, 2011 2011

Maestro’s garden garners national attention Standing in his backyard oasis, Peter McCoppin flips through photos of the yard taken before its transformation. He points to a picture of a typical grass lawn that surrounded his Saxe Point home in Esquimalt, that is, until he decided a makeover was in order and the grass had to go after he purchased the property in 2006. “It was pretty neglected and overgrown,” said McCoppin. “Lawn gives nothing to nature.” The decision to go lawn-free raised some eyebrows in the neighbourhood, but McCoppin and View Royal resident Lorraine Locherty, owner of Urban Habitats Gardening Services and the yard’s designer, are used to pushing creative boundaries. McCoppin has conducted symphony orchestras on four continents, founded the Victoria Symphony Splash and is now a leadership coach. Locherty was an award-winning investigative reporter and deputy news editor at the Calgary Herald. Now their landscaped work of art is gaining national attention. It drew a news team from Canadian Gardening magazine in late September, which is profiling McCoppin’s garden in print next year. A Gardens West magazine team is planning to come next spring to take photos for publication next summer. Visitors to McCoppin’s backyard marvel over a charming pathway that weaves past ornamental grasses, flowers and bushes and under an apple tree. Artichokes, strawberries, figs and red currants grow alongside flowers and other perennials. “You’ll see a rose and then zucchini and beside that, evergreen huckleberry,” Locherty said. “To be self-sustaining in this world, that’s forwardthinking, and it works with nature,” McCoppin said. “We talk about the 100-mile diet. What about the one-mile diet?” They are hoping the national attention will generate interest in one-hour online gardening classes that Locherty hopes to begin teaching this fall from McCoppin’s backyard. The goal is to inspire and show others how to create their own habitats. “It’s creating a living space,” Locherty said of her preference for going lawn-free. “This is better,” McCoppin added. “This is paradise.” emccracken@vicnews.com
