More than 600 teams are registered, representing thousands of commuters who are choosing to cycle to work instead of drive.
Federal government cuts extend to Victoria immigration department Erin McCracken News staff
The closure of the Victoria office of Citizenship and Immigration Canada to the public on Friday (June 1) may discourage future immigrants from settling in the Capital Region. Immigrants won’t have the convenience of applying in person for temporary and permanent residency or changing their visa status, for example, said James Fultanum, who manages a program at the Victoria Immigrant and Refugee Centre Society that helps skilled newcomers ■ Citizenship and gain employment.

If you don’t make Victoria attractive on different levels, people will not come to Victoria.” After Friday, the nine affected Victoria employees will no longer meet with people applying for temporary and permanent residency, landed immigrant status and permanent residency cards. The office will be staffed until June 29. Regional offices in Victoria, Nanaimo, Prince George and Kelowna are among 19 offices being closed across Canada.

Reduction in park traffic sought New plan sees scaled-down changes to Beacon Hill roadways Roszan Holmen News staff
After initial public outcry over proposed plans to close some roads to vehicles in Beacon Hill Park, more modest changes are in the works. People were fearful of the unknown, said Coun. Charlayne Thornton Joe. After reading the original plans, people thought ‘I can’t go here now,’ she said Thursday at a city environment and infrastructure committee meeting.
“We’re saying ‘yes you can.’” Last year, staff recommended permanent closures of some sections of roads that run through the park. Those closures have now been scaled back and instead, cheaper, temporary measures such as bollards and signage are now being proposed. The main changes now proposed entail removing parallel parking along Arbutus Road – starting at the foot of Quadra Street – except for evenings and weekends; closing Bridge Way at

the washrooms, but adding 15-minute parking stalls for seniors and young families; and closing Heywood Way between the cricket field and Circle Drive. The road closures are mainly intended to prevent drivers from cutting through the park. “This is meeting the concerns halfway,” said Doug DeMarzo, manager of parks planning and design.

Foster Miracle Weekend raises millions Fundraisers will help support the families of children in need of organ transplants With some corporate donations still to be tallied, the David Foster Foundation’s Miracle Weekend has brought in $4.6 million for the locally raised musical star’s charity. “Victoria proved once again it is a hometown like no other,” said foundation CEO Mike Ravenhill. “A weekend event that was just 12 months in the making, kicked off by (Oak Bay Beach Hotel owners) Kevin and Shawna Walker, has set the stage for another 25 years of our foundation.” Money raised will go toward providing financial support to Canadian families with children in need of life-saving organ transplants. The Miracle Weekend, held at the Fairmont Empress and Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre, saw 29 people purchase the full $10,000 weekend package and thousands buy tickets to individual events. On Friday night, 300 people walked up the purple carpet – matching the colour scheme for the weekend – at the Empress to have dinner and enjoy an intimate concert with Foster, where tickets sold for $500. Premium tickets for Saturday night’s arena performance – which included a gala dinner and a live auction – went for $1,000. The event attracted 700 people. Another 4,130 people attended the concert, shelling out between $75 and $250 per seat. Onlookers hoping to get a glimpse of the stars and perhaps an autograph or two crowded around the entranceways to both venues. The event was also supported by 150 volunteers. rholmen@vicnews.com

The weekend festivities, which brought in $4.6-million as of Monday, included two star-studded dinners, an auction and two concerts. RCMP Corp.

Singer Michael Bublé, left, smiles after helping David Foster and Mayor Dean Fortin unveil a street sign in Foster’s honour on Friday. The city named its Inner Harbour waterfront pathway David Foster Way in honour of the Greater Victoria native. Bublé was instrumental in arranging the recognition for his friend, Foster.
Now that Victoria’s Inner Harbour walkway belongs to David Foster, at least in name, the Saanich-raised star intends to wield his influence. “The city deserves a beautiful performing arts centre right on the water,” Foster said, at a surprise, star-studded announcement in front of the Fairmont Empress Hotel on Friday afternoon. “Mayor, I’m going to be on your ass for the next 10 years,” he said, turning to Dean Fortin. Foster was joined by Michael Bublé, Pamela Anderson, Rick
Hansen and other celebrities from B.C. to unveil a pathway sign in his name. The newly-named David Foster Way runs from Ogden Point to the Johnson Street Bridge. Eventually, the city plans to extend the walkway to Rock Bay. The idea for the naming came from Bublé. “Mayor Dean Fortin, I drove him nuts,” said Bublé. “I called him about a year and a half ago and told him that I believe David represented this city so well and he’d made a huge impact on culture and I said that it was about time that Mr. Foster had a street named after him.” Foster called the honour much
bigger than a Grammy. “This is right up there, honestly, with the birth of my children,” he said. With a little prompting, three of the four Canadian Tenors on hand for the unveiling gave an impromptu performance of Hallelujah for the crowd. In the audience were Foster’s extended family, including sisters, kids and grandkids. Foster said he plans to retire in Victoria. He concluded with this thought: “Thank you again to all of Victoria. I wave the Victoria flag every day of my life, I promise you I do. You can hold me to task on that.” rholmen@vicnews.com

Police, coroner investigate sudden death Erin McCracken News staff
The B.C. Coroners Service is hoping the results of an autopsy will give a grieving family some answers following the sudden, unexplained death of a Victoria woman. Jasmine Kellington, 23, was found dead in her apartment in the 1300-block of Hillside Ave. on Tuesday (May 22), around 5:30 p.m. The woman’s father made the discovery. Victoria police detectives called in the Vancouver Island Integrated Major Crime Unit for assistance, “as they are the experts in unexplained deaths,” said Victoria police spokesperson Const. Mike Russell. Kellington’s apartment had not been broken into, and there was “no signs of trauma” to the body, he said. The B.C. Coroners Service has ordered an autopsy that will be conducted by a pathologist on the Lower Mainland, “just in case there turns out to be anything suspicious about (the death),” said Barb McClintock, spokesperson for the B.C. Coroners Service. For now, the coroner’s office is not ruling out any possible causes. McClintock confirmed the woman had not suffered from a long-term chronic illness. With the autopsy results, she said, “... hopefully, we’ll be able to give this poor family some closure as to what happened.” emccracken@ vicnews.com

Council nixes smoking ban idea Roszan Holmen News staff
An idea to ban smoking in Centennial Square didn’t find the support required to move forward. Coun. Shellie Gudgeon put forward a motion to impose the ban on a sixmonth trial basis. She proposed extending the ban to all outdoor public spaces where people congregate, if the test ban proved successful. “It’s the right thing to do,” she said. “It’s encouraging people to quit, but it’s creating a healthy and welcoming environment.” Council, however, didn’t support her motion. “Given these times of fiscal restraint, we
don’t need to add more things for the city staff to do … when we’re already looking for things to cut,” said Coun. Lisa Helps. She also opposed the motion on socialjustice grounds and the policing of poverty. “I can already see
it that someone who is living on the street or homeless or has nowhere else to have a cigarette … and the bylaw officer comes and moves them along for no other reason than they are smoking.” In the Capital Region,
North Saanich has prohibited smoking in parks and along trails. Sidney is also considering a ban on smoking in outdoor public spaces and is encouraging the Capital Regional District to do the same. rholmen@vicnews.com

It is stepping up the pace of modernizing the way it works, reducing overhead costs and continuing to streamline programs and operations.” But Fultanum noted that not all immigrants have access to a computer. Those services requiring face-toface contact, such as citizenship ceremonies and language testing, will be “part of the itinerant services offered to communities in which an office was closed,” Gagné said. The union representing affected employees worries the job cuts, in addition to an upcoming pilot project through which permanent resident cards will be mailed directly to applicants, will compromise the integrity of the application process. A Public Service Alliance of Canada spokesperson said employees at the regional offices are trained to spot fraudulent paperwork, such as passports, for example. But Citizenship and Immigration Canada said wait times will be reduced by four weeks for online applicants who normally would have picked up their cards in person. Employees whose positions are being terminated will receive a new offer of employment, or, if that isn’t possible, be offered exit options. Gagné couldn’t say how much money will be saved through the closure of the Victoria office, with budget figures “still in flux.” emccracken@ vicnews.com

Map shows proposed changes for roads through Beacon Hill Park. Dotted lines show proposed closures – Bridge Way and Heywood Way, the extension of Heywood Avenue near the cricket pitch – while Arbutus Way and Chestnut Road will connect to carry one-way southbound traffic.
It keeps the spirit of the original plan, to make the park as friendly as possible to pedestrians, while maintaining vehicle access to all the park’s major amenities. In March, council directed staff to cut the project’s budget from $530,000 to $25,000. The new “bare bones” plan has nixed a proposed perimeter trail, upgrades to the parking lots and other esthetic improvements. Pending final approval by council, the parks department hopes to get started in July. From July through November, parks staff will survey the public about the changes. The results will determine whether the changes are reversed or maintained, and whether the project proceeds to the next phase. rholmen@vicnews.com

Stars shine for Foster charity W
hile the event was supposed to help celebrate the grand reopening of the Oak Bay Beach Hotel, the David Foster Foundation 25th Anniversary Miracle Weekend went off without a hitch otherwise and raised more than $4.6 million for the foundation, which supports families with children in need of organ transplants. And if that was not enough, Kevin Walker, owner of the Oak Bay Beach Hotel and his wife, Shawna, have pledged to raise $2 million over the next 10 years for the foundation through proceeds from ticket sales to the David Foster Foundation Theatre, to be located in the new hotel. Greater Victoria played host to a smorgasbord of stars and icons during the weekend, including Wayne Gretzky, Rick Hansen, Michael Bublé, Sarah McLaughlin, Sinbad, Ruben Studdard, Josh Groban, Muhammad Ali and the Canadian Tenors. The weekend included two star studded dinners, an auction and a concert, giving Greater Victoria locals plenty of opportunity to, if not rub shoulders with, see their favourite singers and stars. On Friday, Foster was honoured with a little bit of real estate as a pathway running from Ogden Point to the Johnson Street Bridge, and eventually to Rock Bay, was dubbed David Foster Way. Bublé, a longtime friend of Foster, who referred to him as a “father-figure” was the impetus behind the naming project, and claimed to have driven Victoria Mayor Dean Fortin nuts with his enthusiasm for the project. In his acceptance speech, however, Foster attempted to one-up Bublé by telling Fortin, in front of the crowd, that “the city deserves a beautiful performing arts centre right on the water.” He followed that up with the statement: “Mayor, I’m going to be on your ass for the next 10 years.” Give the guy a pathway and he wants a performing arts centre. Which, of course would be great, if not for the fact that the residents of Victoria likely aren’t in a position to foot the bill for a performing arts centre located on the waterfront. Foster and friends are quick to put their money where their mouths are when it comes to charity, but would they do the same for the arts in Victoria?

McRae and Paul Kitching, B.C.’s chief veterinarian, pleaded for the public to understand that any farm reporting system must rely on voluntary compliance by farmers. When the B.C. government took the advice of B.C. Information and Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham and began releasing fish farm inspection data in 2010, the operators stopped providing samples voluntarily. The fish farmers’ position was that you can have a co-operative system of farm inspections or one that’s imposed, but not both. Imposing inspections on land farms across B.C.’s vast area is even less practical. Former Alberta premier Ralph Klein famously observed that the next rancher to find a possible mad cow should have “shot, shoveled and shut up” rather than file a report and devastate the industry. Denham, the NDP and others appear to operate under an assumption that there should be sufficient government resources to sample and inspect every farm across B.C. for reportable contagious illnesses. This is similar to the fashionable notion that we should have enough park rangers to guard every cedar tree. tfletcher@blackpress.ca —Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com.

There was no fence to separate the public, therefore the produce may have been picked before maturity by passersby on an ad-hoc, first-come, first-served basis.

Permitting even one vegetable patch in a park would set an undesirable precedent. Betty Gibbens Victoria
I have some serious concerns about a proposal for a community garden in Cecelia Ravine Park, a $1 per year rental agreement that would last three years, starting June 1. Given the fast upcoming date for the occupation, little time exists for the city to issue statutory notices, as required under the Community Charter. As well, no measurements are given, nor is there information given as to whether the boundaries of the garden could be extended later. The proposal would be described more accurately as an allotment garden.

environmental mistakes ever made. After the order for the construction was given, 91 scientists, medical health officers and others wrote the minister of environment, saying that he did not have the evidence to justify it. Not a single scientist or medical health officer involved in a generation of monitoring believes it is needed. There are no exceptions to that. The order was based on a sentence in a report by others that was not taken from its conclusions. Indeed, that report does not recommend treatment and states “the benefits of treatment cannot be described with any precision,” but then they are not described at all. The environmental health and safety costs of building and operating the plants – which can be estimated with precision – are ignored. At about a billion dollars, including plant maintenance, it outmatches the Gomery affair by a wide margin. Ted Dew-Jones Victoria

Cosmetic Advantages If you’ve been thinking about changing from glasses to contact lenses, it is probably for the cosmetic advantages. They fit closely to your eyes so that few people notice that you are wearing corrective lenses. However, this is just one of several advantages of wearing contact lenses. Contacts permit a wider field of vision than eyeglasses. There is no frame to get in your line of sight when you look to the left, right, up or down. The close fit presents a less distorted and more realistic view of the world around us. A tendency to allow for more efficient eye coordination is still another advantage, particularly in sports. They do require more conscientious care than glasses, because they must be kept clean, free of irritants and harmful bacteria. If you think you would like to wear contacts, ask your Optometrist if he or she would recommend them for you.

Gun scare a hoax at Empress
These Will Go Fast!
A report that a man had a gun in a suite at the Fairmont Empress hotel Sunday morning is the work of a prankster, police say. A gun threat called in to the front counter of the hotel around 10 a.m. was quickly deemed a hoax. “The suites involved were checked and none were associated with anyone attending the David Foster Foundation celebration this weekend,” Mike Tucker, Victoria police spokesperson, said in a statement. “The call seems to be unrelated.” emccracken@ vicnews.com

Pumping out surprises Travis Paterson News staff
If you’re thinking polkas, you’re thinking wrong. There will always be a time and a place for the Central European genre of music so closely associated with the accordion. But it’s the wrong association to make to the B.C. Accordion Orchestra, says conductor Aleksandar Milojevic. “Our shows are a lot of fun and our musicians are some of the best in the world, it’s something people who haven’t seen us won’t realize.” The Victoria-based orchestra, which draws on musicians from the Island and beyond, is holding its annual concert in the Alix Goolden Hall on Thursday (May 31). The performance is full of surprises as it moves through the classical, tango, jazz, ethnic and pop genres, the latter being the only type of music to start with a ‘P.’ “We have returning members of our audience, who know what to expect, which means they don’t know what to expect, except for great music,” Milojevic said.
B.C. Accordion Society
World-class accordionist Jelena Milojevic leads the B.C. Accordion Orchestra at the Alix Goolden Hall. A former player himself, Milojevic will lead a dozen accordions through the various arrangements. Thursday is also the accordion society’s campaign kickoff for the Coupe Mondiale in August 2013, when the world’s biggest accordion event comes to Victoria. “It’s going to be a major event, bringing hundreds of the world’s top accordionists and thousands of spectators to Victoria.” It’s the first time the Coupe Mondiale, the most prestigious accordion competition of inter-
national scope which takes place each year, will come to Canada. Last year it was in China and this year it’s set for Italy. Milojevic is hard at work netting major sponsors for the event, and is in meetings with the ministry of community, sport and cultural development in planning for the event. Even sooner, however, is the Victoria Accordion Festival from July 19 to 22. Also an international event, though not to the same scale as the Coupe Mondiale, the accordion festival showcases a series of popular bands that feature an accordion. For those who have not experienced the range of what a group of accordions can accomplish in concert, tomorrow night’s show is for you. sports@vicnews.com

Author speaks on author British historian Peter Clarke will be at Fairfield United Church, 1303 Fairfield Rd., 7:30 p.m. on June 5 to read from his new book Mr. Churchillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Profession. Although much was written about Sir Winston Churchill as a statesman and world leader, surprisingly little attention has been given to Churchillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life as a writer. Writing was, in fact, his primary means of earning a living and earned him the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953. Clarkeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s narrative gives particular attention to the making of his four-volume History of the English-Speaking Peoples, showing the themes that shaped
Churchillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s philosophy and world view. Clarke was formerly Professor of Modern British history and Master of Trinity Hall at Cambridge. His many books include The Last Thousand Days of the British Empire, The Keynesian Revolution in the Making, 1924â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1936, and the widely admired final volume of the Penguin History of Britain, Hope and Glory, Britain 1900â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2000. He lives with his wife, the Canadian writer Maria Tippett, in Suffolk, England, and Pender Island, B.C. Tickets, $5, are available at Munroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Books, 1108 Government St.

PROMOTIONAL FEATURE
Sunnyside Café a local favourite
Jennifer Blyth News Staff
One of Esquimalt’s favourite eateries welcomed new owners this winter and while diners are enjoying all their Sunnyside Café favourites, a few new items are also tempting. The Eggs Benny has always been a star on the Sunnyside menu and Mark Herring, owner of the café with his wife, Stephanie, has kept the perfectly poached eggs coming. Favourites among the café’s many regulars include the Admirals Benny, with ham and avocado. Come lunch time, the home-made soups are always hot, including the delicious bacon corn chowder. While the friendly service and delicious, fresh-cooked food hasn’t changed with the new ownership, among the new elements Herring has brought in is the local 2% Jazz Coffee. “Everyone has been awesome,” Herring says of the community’s welcoming reaction to Sunnyside’s new owners. “There’s been an awesome response.” Find Sunnyside Café at 1234 Esquimalt Rd. and as the summer weather arrives, don’t miss the chance to relax on the sunny patio!
Swing into Esquimalt’s centennial with annual mayor’s golf tourney

Erin McCracken News staff
When golfers soon take to the links to mark Esquimalt’s 100th birthday, they’ll put down their modern-day clubs and golf balls and try their hand at swinging a traditional hickory club and mesh ball. Esquimalt’s mayors have hosted a spring golf tourney every year since the early 1990s. But this year there is a twist. “This year it’s been transformed into a golf tournament held to help celebrate the centennial, and that’s why it has a historical flavour to it,” said Greg Evans, Esquimalt’s municipal archivist, who has been organizing the event with a small team of volunteers. The event, held at the Gorge Vale Golf Club on June 21, will help highlight Esquimalt’s rich golfing past, Evans said. “I think most residents of Esquimalt don’t know our golf history goes back to the 1890s.” The game was brought to Canada by military members and British expats, and Esquimalt was actually home to one of the country’s first golf courses. Links at Macaulay Point were laid out in 1890, and Royal Army marines then oversaw construction of the nine-hole, par-35 course. Before the federal government repurposed the property in 1941, the United Services Golf Club had a solid reputation among golfers: “There is ground which lends itself readily to a long drive, but there is also ground which presents difficulties in every shape and form,” noted an article published in 1900 in The Navy and Army Illustrated magazine. During the tourney next month, golfers will be able to take a swing with hickory clubs and mesh balls on the No. 4 hole. “Everyone will have to put down their modern clubs, and use hickory clubs, irons and putters,” Evans said. Historical re-enactor Marc Vermette will also be on the links, playing the part of a prominent golfer from the former United Services Golf Club.

Prior plays at the United Services Golf Club at Macaulay Point in 1900. “He’ll be the ghost from the past,” Evans said. “He’ll be parading around the course probably telling the modern-day golfer how it was in his day...just to bring some levity and some fun to it.” Golfers can also compete for some serious prizes. The golfer who sinks a hole-in-one at hole No. 5 will win $10,000, courtesy of the Royal Bank of Canada. A banquet dinner will feature the kind of food served in the late Edwardian period, such as assorted jellies and aspics, meat pies, marinated beet salads, parslied potatoes and Yorkshire pudding. At the banquet, a historian from Vancouver’s B.C. Golf Museum will discuss the history of golf in B.C.

Then on Saturday, Hesjedal once again completed the demanding final stretch while having to pace the maglia rosa pack, with his rivals drafting his slipstream up the steep climb.

The Victoria Shamocks (2-0) didn’t dominate the visiting Maple Ridge Burrards (0-2) on Friday, but they nearly did, winning 8-4. Rookie head coach Bob Heyes wants to see more from his offensive group, starting with a home game against the Nanaimo Timbermen (2-1) Friday night (June 1), at 7:45 p.m. at Bear Mountain Arena. “With the group we have, we should be more effective offensively,” Heyes said. “We scored goals when we needed to (Friday) but we made it hard on ourselves.” The ’Rocks controlled the first and third periods against the Burrards, but a let down in the second period allowed the Burrards to take a 4-3 lead.

He also got into a fight at the final buzzer sounded, with Kevin Reid. “First (fight) of my life, don’t even know how it started,” Pires said. “I think we were good (on Friday), and the other team will have their pushes, but we don’t want to get in that situation.” Corey Small was also key up front with a natural hat trick that tied the game 4-4 and put the ’Rocks up 6-4. “We have a good mix of kids and vets,” Heyes said. “The kids have lots of energy, and instead of a few guys doing it all it’s everybody.

SPORTS NEWS IN BRIEF
Diver McCormick Olympic-bound Saanich diver Riley McCormick is going to the Olympics. McCormick closed the book on his winter struggles with a first place effort on the men’s 10 metre tower at the Diving Canada Olympic trials in Montreal on Sunday. The Claremont secondary grad completed an incredible fifth-round reverse dive, which earned perfect 10s from four of the judges, and clinched McCormick’s second-consecutive trip to the Olympics. McCormick ended the competition with 979.80 points. Eric Sehn (Edmonton) was second with 863.65. “I knew I had the potential to put it all together. This was one of my best career perfor-
who did what they could. But my rivals put the pressure on … as we approached the last part of the Stelvio, my rivals weren’t willing to work because they felt it was my race to lose. It’s tactics and situation, and I had to save my own Giro in the last five kms, and that makes it that much sweeter.” Also sweetening it was multiple kisses with wife Ashley Hofer, and seeing his father, as well as Tour de Victoria organizer Seamus McGrath at the Stelvio summit. As for Hesjedal’s status in July’s Tour de France and this summer’s London Olympics, the Giro champ said he’ll begin putting a plan together soon. “Once I have started to see my name with the previous winners who’ve accomplished this, it will sink in, but I’m just enjoying it right now.” Earlier this year Hesjedal’s seventh-place finish at the 2010 Tour de France was bumped to sixth after that year’s winner, Alberto Contador, was disqualfied for doping. sports@vicnews.com
■ Since 1931, the Giro leaders jersey, known as the maglia rosa, has been pink to reflect the colour of La Gazzetta Dello Sport. Like the Tour de France, the Giro, which started in 1909, was created to increase the readership of newspapers.
Ryder ready for Olympics ■ Asked repeatedly on Sunday about competing for Canada at the upcoming Olympics, Hesjedal responded: “It’s the last thing on my mind right now, I don’t even know the selection date to be honest. But I’ve said all along I want to do it. I don’t see why I shouldn’t be in London, but we’ll see.” Hesjedal represented Canada as a mountain biker in the 2004 Olympics and road cyclist at the 2008 Olympics.

Comox to hold Cyclone Taylor Cup
Adam O’Meara tops at Shawnigan Lake
The Comox Valley Glacier Kings have won the bid to host the 2013 Cyclone Taylor Cup. The junior B provincial championship rotates between all three leagues in B.C., the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League, Pacific International Junior Hockey League, and Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League. The Glacier Kings will face the respective winner of each league from April 11 to 14.
Victoria long-distance triathlete Adam O’Meara repeated as the Shawnigan Lake HalfIron triathlon champion on Sunday. O’Meara’s time of four hours, four minutes and 54 seconds was more than a minute slower on the rejigged 2012 course than his 2011 winning time of 4:03:36. Wade Carlson (Penticton) and Nathan Killiam (Surrey) finished second and third overall, respectively, on the 1.9-kilometre swim, 88-km bike and 21.1-km run of the Half Iron. Vancouver’s Rachel Kiers overtook Stephanie Ossenbrink (Richmond) in the swim to finish as the top woman with a time of 4:24:41. Shawnigan is the first race of the Subaru Western Triathlon Series, which continues June 17 at Elk Lake.
Correction The May 25 issue of the News incorrectly referred to Lambrick Park coach Chris Lubinich as complying with a vote by the Saanich district teachers. Lambrick Park is part of the Greater Victoria School District 61. The News regrets the error.
