Council, mayor to clash over critical comments

Precarious rescue saves bald eagle

KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

PAUL RUDAN CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

After dangling in a tree overnight, it didn’t look like the bald eagle was still alive. Entangled in what appeared to be a thick kite line, the distressed eagle had flown to a fir tree by the beach in Royston where it had become further entwined in the rope. On Tuesday night, a nearby resident contacted the Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society in Merville to let them know, but with darkness approaching there was little anyone could do. Help arrived Wednesday morning after another call was made to Campbell River tree specialist Steve Harding. Harding, the owner of Timberwolf Tree Service, helped people save their homes from fallen trees during the big storm in March and he’s rescued umpteen cats who have climbed into tall trees and can’t get down. He’s also developing a fine reputation for saving eagles. “He’s a great guy,” says Maj Birch, the long-time manager at Mountainaire. But this rescue would be difficult and it appeared doubtful the Continued on A3

The mayor who incited rebellion against his own city council has now aroused rebellion from city councillors. Coun. Mary Storry took Mayor Walter Jakeway to task at Tuesday night’s council meeting for comments he made at a Rotary lunch reported in the Mirror on May 25. “Council is aware of the public comments made by the mayor at the Rotary meeting on May 23 and the subsequent news reports,” Storry said. “Council wishes to review and discuss the mayor’s role as council spokesperson and whether these recent comments accurately or appropriately reflect the will and view of council.” Storry took exception to the keynote address Jakeway delivered at the Rotary meeting at the Coast Discovery Inn. The outspoken mayor lambasted city staff and labelled the atmosphere at city hall as “toxic.” “The senior staff don’t get it, they really don’t,” Jakeway said in front of the noon hour Rotarians. “They don’t have the skill set, they cling to their policy documents.” Jakeway also waded back into city budget deliberations, which produced a 4-3 split on council

with councillors Ryan Mennie, Claire Moglove, Larry Samson and Storry voting in favour of the budget and councillors Andy Adams, Ron Kerr and the mayor in opposition. Jakeway accused city staffers of playing “a game of divide and conquer” which “council fell for.” Jakeway’s comments re-ignited the flame that council tried to snuff out just weeks ago. When budget deliberations wrapped up one month ago, councillors were saying all the right things and agreed they have to work together. “There was concern about a fractured council,” Storry said at a council meeting April 24. “I want to put these concerns to Continued on A3

Eagle: early morning action rescues bird dangling from branch overnight Continued from A1

bird was still alive. “This one was pretty sketchy,� says Birch, who brought along animal technician Reg Westcott to assist in the rescue. By morning the line was wrapped around the eagle’s talons and one wing, and the bird was hanging upside down. “He was in a bad way,� says Harding. But Westcott managed to get the bird’s

attention and when it stated squawking, it was time for Harding to start climbing. The big problem though was the tree leaned to one side and the eagle was dangling from an extended branch. In order to get at it, Harding climbed above the branch, secured himself to the trunk, and then rappelled to the eagle. “Once I got up close, I had to contemplate what to do,� explains Harding, who spent

many years volunteering for Campbell River Search and Rescue. With dexterity and gentleness, Harding secured the distressed eagle with one of his ropes, cut around the kite line to free the bird, and then slowly lowered it into Westcott’s awaiting arms. “He had some trauma, a few scratches, but his wing wasn’t broken, and then he was full of piss and vinegar!� says Harding with a chuckle.

LESLIE KAARDAL/SPECIAL TO THE MIRROR

Maj Birch of the Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society works to free the entangled talons and wing of the bald eagle.

It was the sixth time Harding has rescued a bald eagle and the animal lover was glad everything worked out. “I was up all night worrying,â€? he says. “We were up at five o’clock and there by six‌it was really rewarding‌a good ending.â€? Back at the Mountainaire recovery centre, the mature male bird was further examined and appears to be okay. “ H e ’s d e f i n i t e l y stressed out – but he has good weight and he’s definitely feisty,â€? says Birch, who let the bird mellow out in a dark and quiet holding pen. The plan is to further examine the eagle to see if it suffered any ligament or tendon damage, and if everything is A-ok, he will be good to go. “Hopefully we can release him soon,â€? says Birch, who’s grateful for Harding’s expertise and reliability. “He did an amazing job.â€?

Another lesson for city’s bad parkers PAUL RUDAN CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Joan Knowler tries her best to be nice. But when able-bodied drivers park in spots reserved for people with disabilities, well… “I get a little agitated and I call them out,” she says. Knowler, 45, requires the use of a wheelchair due to a neck/back injury she suffered as a teenager which resulted in paralysis of her lower body. For 28 years she’s handily managed to get around the city in her wheelchair as well as hauling it in and out of her car. Those things are no trouble for her, but the problems occur when the “handicap parking” space is occupied by someone who can clearly get around on two feet. “Oh my goodness, people need some education…I try to be polite,” says the usually affable mom. This is Access Aware-

ness Week across North America and Knowler thought it was a good time for another lesson for Campbell River’s less-than-courteous motorists. And a perfect example of what she often faces occurred Tuesday afternoon as she was heading out of work from Uniglobe River City Travel at the Tyee Plaza. Her car was already parked in one of the wider handicap spots, but there was little room for her to manoeuvre due to a mid-sized work truck that was straddling the dividing line and parked too close to her driver’s side door. “My husband Ed called me, because he had noticed it, and said, ‘you’re not going to be able to get into your car,’” she says. So instead of getting mad, or even, the couple decided it was perfect opportunity to educate the public. Ed took photographs of his wife attempting

I had called in the afternoon and the truck was still there when I went to leave,” she says. Access Awareness Week ends on Saturday, but Knowler is hopeful motorists demonstrate awareness, and good manners, year-round. “The city is really good about ticketing vehicles parked in designated spots, but they can’t do it on the private lots,” she points out.

Sound abatement still won’t muffle residents KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The owner of a controversial pole peeler on Duncan Bay Road will attempt to reduce the operating noise by today. The city received plant modification

plans last week to reduce noise coming from Northern Pressure Treated Wood and owner Mike McCollough was hopeful to have the work completed this week. “This will allow the company to install noise-reducing

improvements as soon as possible,� said Ross Blackwell, the city’s land use manager. In March, McCollough said he would i m p l e m e n t re c o m mendations from a sound consultant in an attempt to lower the volume on the peeler,

which emits a highpitch buzzing sound when running. N e a r by r e s i d e n t Corinne Matheson compares the noise to “Chinese water torture.� She is one of about 20 area residents exasperated by the noise and

is doubtful the sound abatement measures won’t solve anything. “The fact the pole plant is doing the noise abatement – after four months – is distressing to us,� said Tracey Deller, co-owner of Blue Spruce Home Park, located next door

to the operation. “The city is looking at only one issue, the noise from the peeler. We have been complaining about all the other noise from this business as well – the crashing and banging and thundering sounds of the long poles drop-

A Campbell River man’s name will be written into the Guinness Book of World Records. Travis Dashkewytch, 34, was one of 40 men who took part in the longest hockey game now on record at 246 hours and two minutes – a total of 10-anda-half days. The game began at noon on May 6 and wrapped up at 6 p.m. on May 16 But there was more to the game than breaking records. The men had a greater purpose – to raise money for the Alberta Children’s Hospital and cancer research. The goal was $1.5 million and the players – through their families, friends and communities – came through with $1.539 million. Dashkewytch got involved following an invite from his brother who lives in Calgary. The game, held at the Chestermere Rec Centre (20 minutes east of Calgary), was organized by a group of oil workers wanting to raise money for cancer research. They were inspired by Diamond Marshall, age six, who is battling a rare form of cancer and whose mother died of cancer four years ago. “I wanted to do something for cancer research so I jumped at the opportunity right away,” said Dashkewytch whose wife Carrie Davison was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 at the age of 33.

She’s now cancer-free, but is undergoing a “maintenance” surgery next week. Dashkewytch played in honour of his wife and had ‘Carrie’ written on the back of his jersey. His number was <3 which, when flipped around forms the shape of a heart. With two teams of 20 players, split into 10-man rosters, each group played four-hour shifts, with a four-hour break in-between ice times. The players had to be at the arena 24/7 and slept on makeshift beds. By the time their shifts were over and they got out of their gear, showered and ate, they only had about two-and-a-half hours to sleep. “Your body would break down,” Dashkewytch said. “Guys feet swelled up to sizes

Dashkewytch, latrer diagnosed with pneumonia, was taken by ambulance to the hospital where doctors gave him medication and put him on three different inhalers to clear his lungs. “They quarantined me and I slept in my own dressing room for two days,” said Dashkewytch, who missed only a couple of his four-hour shifts despite the ordeal. “I was worried because I couldn’t breathe. It was like holding your breath until they gave me treatment on the bench.” The players were treated like celebrities throughout the game with several media

The highest scorer notched 522 goals. “I was completely exhausted,” he said by the time the marathon game came to an end. “I still feel tired and I’m still trying to catch up on my sleep.” He’s also feeling other side effects. “I still can’t feel parts of my feet,” Dashkewytch said. “The balls of my feet and the tops feel frozen like I’ve been to the dentist.” Still, he would do it again in a heartbeat. “It was very different being in that environment for 10 days. When you leave you feel like you’re missing something. I’d do it again.” Dashkewytch, who raised $7,000, would like to thank all the people in the community who helped him in his fundraising efforts.

EDITOR: Alistair Taylor editor@campbellrivermirror.com

Our View

The Grinches who tried to steal Family Day The B.C. Conservatives can officially change their name to the B.C. Scrooge Party, if they want to. Yes, these political Grinches don’t want you to have a new statutory holiday in February because it allegedly hurts the We say: The B.C. economy. Our intrepid independent MLAs stood up proudly in the Conservatives Legislature and voted boldly against claim it will hurt the B.C. Liberals’ plan (supported by the NDP) to implement Family Day the economy on the second Monday of February, beginning next year on Feb. 11. A gaggle of independent MLAs, led by B.C.

Conservative Party member John Van Dongen and party leader John Cummins, said an extra holiday in the long, dark stretch between New Year’s and Easter will cost businesses – more than $1,100 on average to pay employees to stay home or to pay overtime to come into work. While we’re sympathetic to the challenges of small businesses in this tough economy, sometimes the greater good takes priority. Plus, these kinds of comparisons are often “six of one, half a dozen of another” situations. Some businesses may incur costs but others will surely benefit from consumers being out and about shaking off the winter

doldrums. Ski resorts are already anticipating a bonus day of business. In fact, they requested a change to the actual day so they won’t be overloaded because the original proposal coincided with a popular American holiday. Family Day brings B.C. into line with most other provinces now and it allows Premier Christy Clark to fulfill a promise she made before becoming premier. The Conservative-led independents can grouse all they want about a burdensome new holiday but most British Columbians will be spending the day out and about or with their families come Feb. 11, 2013 and saying thanks.

Letters

Misconceptions beggar belief In the Campbell River Mirror, dated May 23, Eric Becherer wrote a letter that is so full of misconceptions, it beggars belief. Mr. Becherer states “I tend to be leery of BCTF statements, having been a student during a teachers strike, and a parent during the most recent illegal strike...” Which illegal strike would that be? Is he aware that in 2011 a judge of the British Columbia Supreme Court deemed that teachers’ had been working without a contract for ten years, therefore, they were in a legal position to strike? A decision that was upheld by the Labour Relations Board of British Columbia. Teachers in British Columbia have been working in a toxic environment for many years. Frankly, it isn’t necessary to tell the teachers to “use some self-reflection please...” Their self-reflection led them to fight the government over the insidious bill being foisted upon them. A fight that goes to the very heart of education in B.C. Not until you find your children in a classroom with no student limit, with not enough text books will you Continued on A9 We welcome your opinions on stories and issues published in our pages as well as issues of broader concern encountered elsewhere.

A month of bus riding reduces my carbon footprint

Morgan Ostler Urban Gardener

There Are Plusses For Taking The Busses. Winning a BCTransit bus pass for a 30-day trial period created a doorway to a brave new world. That personal pledge at the April Earth Day event, when I acquired the card, was a serious undertaking. Firstly, how was I to lug home groceries? That was quickly solved by discovering that most markets do home deliveries. What about heavy bags of my beloved chicken manure and ocean soil? That was a set back as the stores don’t load manures into the same trucks that haul food. Relying on a friend that was going downtown quickly solved that problem. Attending my many meetings, especially evening events, was tricky as the last

busses depart the Community Centre at 9:15 p.m. My appreciation for the trials of a Quadra Islander deepened. My fall-back position was to use the car for meetings. The plusses outweigh the strategic planning that goes into taking a simple bus ride. The frustrations that are a daily part of using public transportation are the same things that make taking the bus actually pleasant. The act of sharing space with a stranger, maybe having a bit of a chat with passengers or the driver, connects us to our community in a broader way. Despite having to use my car several times during the month when my “strategic” plans collapsed, I still contributed greatly to the car-

bon footprint reduction. $130 which equates to two tanks of gas was saved by not having to fill up. The monthly bus pass, at $35 for seniors is a bonus. I just can’t pass up a good pass so I’m renewing my card for the month of June! A Group of Food Garden Fanatics including agricultural plan supporters and city hall staffers visited a most unusual farm last week. Hans Rhenisch and his wife Dorothy moved from the Okanagan to land near the old UBC farm and have spent the last four years transforming it into a model site. Essentially they practice a form of agriculture which is comparable to the permaculture system. After the surface weeds are cleared and the top soil gently loos-

ened seeds are sown on the surface and covered over with a topping of finely ground bark mulch, sand and aged animal manure. The land is not deeply cultivated and as Rhenisch, a retired plant pathologist, explained to us, “Digging down into the soil disturbs the micro organisms. They become disconnected from each other. It is like a symphony orchestra. It does not work in harmony when you change the players around.” Standing there surrounded by strong, healthy insect free vegetables and fruit trees was certainly a confirmation of his system. Rhenisch’s farm is an adaptation of the ancient Asian farming system and is a most inspiring place to visit.

No single-use plastic beverage containers – including bottled water – contain BPA I read with interest the column written by Ingrid Pincott that appeared in the May 15, 2012, edition of North Island Midweek entitled, “Three awareness weeks have the same gluten tag.” In the piece, Ms.

Pincott writes that she doesn’t recommend buying bottled water “as you don’t know how long the water has been stored in plastic or if the plastic is free of BPA (bisphenol A)...” Both statements are

incorrect. Most singleuse bottled water products sold to Canadian consumers have a date stamp on them with a two-year expiry. However, when stored in a dark, cool place, bottled water will easily keep for up to 10 years.

With respect to BPA, no single-use plastic beverage containers, including those used to package bottled water, contain this compound as it simply isn’t used in the manufacture of PET. For further infor-

mation about bottled water, Midweek readers are encouraged to visit Health Canada’s web site at www.hc-scgc.ca. John B. Challinor II APR, Director of Corporate Affairs, Nestlé Waters Canada

B.C. teachers are undervalued that does not qualify us to become teachers nor does it give us the right to make judgement calls. Perhaps, I should state that as a mother of a B.C. teacher, not in SD 72, I can speak firsthand to how much of her life, my daughter, has spent studying to become a teacher, not to mention the costs incurred. As a qualified teacher she continues, on her own time and out of

Continued from A8 understand the ramifications of what this government has done, and continues to do to public education. Believe it or not, teachers’ have gained very little considering their level of education and qualifications. In my mind, the general public sees them as nothing more than glorified baby-sitters. We have all attended school at some point in our lives, however,

her own pocket, to add to her skills to better help her students. Given her skill set and qualifications she is more valuable in Ontario than she is in British Columbia? Although, I agree with Mr. Becherer, the BCTF has not handled the current situation very well, I feel the need to point out to him that the government, also, needs to be held to account. This is a very com-

plex situation, that cannot be resolved by “armchair pundits.” I could go on “ad infinitum.” Suffice to say, that as you chastise all those lazy, greedy teachers, keep in mind the ones who provide a hot breakfast to children who arrive at school, tired, hung ry and unkempt. Kudos to the Campbell River teachers who used the newspapers to keep parents informed during the

“work to rule.” Personally, I feel that B.C. teachers are undervalued, and, if, as this government states they are an essential service, why is it that Mr. Abbott appears to have difficulty fostering a sense of trust and coming to the table in mutual understanding? After all, teachers are a professional body and ought to be treated accordingly. M. V. Young Campbell River

City councillor supports proposal for a new, or improved, library KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

C o u n . Ro n Ke r r would like to see the city get a new library. At Tuesday’s council meeting, Kerr directed city staff to try and make that happen fol-

lowing a presentation from Vancouver Island Regional Library staff two weeks ago. Campbell River is sixth on a list of 13 urban libraries to be either renovated or rebuilt but the city could get bumped up.

Adrian Maas, director of finance for Vancouver Island Regional Library, told council at a May 15 meeting the process could be fast-tracked if the city could donated land for a new library. Kerr took that to

heart and this week, asked staff to prepare a report with options for a new or expanded library. He also asked the report include any available city-owned lands that could be offered.

“I think this is a real opportunity here,” Kerr said. “Unfortunately council in the past hasn’t seen fit to move on it.” At 9,683 square feet, the Campbell River library is undersized for the population and

is old. The branch has operated out of its Shoppers Row location since 1987. “Based on the population in 2009...the library should be 21,000 square feet,” Maas said. “If you take a look into the next few

years, we should really be looking at 31,000 square feet.” New standards set by Vancouver Island Regional Library in 2010 require library facilities to be .6 square feet based on per capita population.

COMMUNITY

FRIDAY, JUNE 1, 2012 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR |

NIC Foundation donor goes the extra mile for Campbell River moms Since its beginning in 2004, Shelagh Germyn, founder and organizer of the Women for Women (W4W) Trail Mix Challenge, has raised $20,000 to support 40 Campbell River mothers as they return to school to continue their education at North Island College. At age 21 Germyn fell in love with running and over the years, she has volunteered for many running events and clinics that have raised funds for the community. Germyn saw an opportunity to combine her passion for running with her personal desire to help single moms and the Women for Women Trail Mix Challenge was born. Inspired by the Campbell River Young Parent’s Program (CRYPP) that supports young parents as they work towards high school graduation, Germyn wanted her event to take that concept one step farther. “We wanted the event to be a continuation of what the CRYPP was doing for young moms,” says Germyn. “We wanted

to raise awareness through education; to help our Campbell River single mothers who have finished Grade 12 know they also have an opportunity to continue their post-secondary education with the help of a bursary. “And these moms are also setting an example for their own children. It’s amazing.” Each year, the race begins at the Carihi Secondary School field in Campbell River. There are five and ten km trail runs as well as a shorter run for children, and participants may walk or run. All funds raised goes directly towards the bursary program for Campbell River single moms. Julie Snowdon was selected as a recipient of a W4W bursary by the NIC Foundation

in 2006. She writes, “When I chose to go back to school, I never imagined the impact it would have on me personally. I have become even more confident and stronger intellectually and spiritually. “Having the opportunity to go back to school, yet still balance my life as a single mother of two little boys was a transition that very easily fell into place. It makes me very happy that I am showing my little boys that education is the key to success.” Germyn is a small woman with giant ambition and an even bigger heart. The child of a single parent home, Germyn never pursued her own post-secondary education. She chose to focus her energy on her own children and their

education, and now on the mothers and children in her community. “Knowing that we’re giving hope to single moms and helping them to continue their education, what could be better?” says Germyn. “That’s what the Women for

Women Trail Mix Challenge does!” This year’s race will take place on Saturday, Sept. 8. For updates, running tips and more information visit them on facebook at Women-For-Women5k10k-Trail-Mix-Challenge-and-Kids-Run.

Planning for Life Changes What type of ‘Living Will’ can I 2X14 make in B.C.? In B.C., there is no such thing as a living Will. There are other documents that cover the same issues Gurdeep Sidhu typically covered by a living Will. In B.C., Advanced Health Care Directive is the document that closely resembles a Living Will. It outlines your PLANNING preference of the kind of medical procedure you do not wish to LIFE be administeredFOR on you. You can specify that in the event of a terminal illness, you do not want to receive life prolonging treatments, such as CPR or tube feeding, Kidney Dialysis etc.. However, it is important to update the Health Care Directive periodically because due to the advances in medical ¿eld; there may be new medicines or new procedures available. The dif¿cult treatments that you may not have wished to receive a number of years ago; now may have become easier. Relying on an old Health Care Directive, the health care providers may withhold the treatment that you may have consented to if you were informed about the new medical discoveries. I usually recommend my clients to make a Representation Agreement. In a Representation Agreement you can appoint someone to make medical decisions on your behalf. To make sure that your representative makes the right decisions; you can leave the instructions that you normally include in a Health Care Directive. You can change these directions as needed. This option may also be a preferred option if you wish only a speci¿c individual to make the health care decisions for you. “Planning for life changes” is a not-for-profit group made of local professionals who will be providing free seminars that will cover various aspects of life including retirement planning, income taxes, Wills and Power of Attorney, real estate matters, and funeral planning.

C.R. Chamber wins accolades for its work The Campbell River Chamber of Commerce has received an Honourable Mention as BC Chamber of the Year. Business leaders and Chamber of Commerce executives from communities across BC gathered in Penticton from May 24-26 for the BC Chamber of Commerce Annual General Meeting & Conference to set the policy agenda for the coming year. As part of the conference, the BC Chamber of Commerce recognizes Chambers of Commerce which have made exceptional contributions to their business community with the Chamber of the Year Award, the most prestigious distinction presented to a member Chamber. The winners are: Chamber of the Year 2012 The BC Chamber of Commerce gave the 2012 Chamber of the Year Award to the North Vancouver Chamber of Commerce (www.nvchamber.ca) for the leadership role they played in ensuring that their business community has flourished. As an advocate for their members, this Chamber has been at the front of some key issues with all levels of government. After working tirelessly, they were instrumental in securing a 20-year, $8 billion federal shipbuilding program for Seaspan Shipyards. This project will have an economic impact, not only in their region, but throughout the province. The benefits will extend to other BC shipyards which will participate with Seaspan, and to suppliers of everything from construction to professional services.

The Chamber has initiated a number of projects to help drive economic development in their area, such as a Major Project Portal to showcase local businesses to potential contractors and project bid proponents seeking local services. BC Hydro has already adopted the portal as their major project model for community involvement going forward.

In the month of April, the Team at the Willow Point 7-11 held a used book, DVD and VHS sale to raise money for the Campbell River Women’s Centre. They raised a total of $650. Presenting the cheque to Ellen Latta (Women’s Centre board member – second from left) is: Debbie Hunter (store manager), Janice Sewell (7-11 field consultant), Christina Swift and Jessie Speedie (7-11 employees).

Safety comes first at third annual conference Homer Simpson once said, “Donuts, is there anything they can’t do?” Well, donuts were hard to find at the third annual Upper Island Safety Conference – there were plenty of healthy snacks and, okay, some muffins – but Simpsons’ references came in handy for Hugh Pelmore’s presentation. The president of Arete Safety and Protection was the keynote speaker to open the two-day conference held Monday and Tuesday at Strathcona Gardens. Pelmore used images and references from the hit cartoon show to highlight his entertaining and interactive lecture on “Are Your Co-Workers Driving You Crazy?” More than 180 people, many from out-of-town, attended the conference presented by the Strathcona Regional District. They took part in a variety of workshops including on-the-job safety, new workplace regulations, managing workplace stress, the facts and foibles of an aging workforce, and keeping your brain healthy. Participants also took in the trade show.

Are You

Prepared? 7x14

In the event of an emergency, such as an earthquake, local agencies come together to provide assistance. Vancouver Island is located in the northeastern quadrant of the Ring of Fire. In the past couple of years, it is the only quadrant that hasn’t had a major earthquake. We have all watched scenes of devastation in the other three quadrants in Japan, New Zealand and Chile. The largest earthquake to hit Vancouver Island was the 7.3 one in 1946 and the epicentre was just west of Courtenay and Campbell River. The next largest one was the 6.4 quake that was felt in our area in September of 2011. There are also many other types of potential hazards. These include flooding, marine emergencies involving hazardous materials, wildfires, storms, neighborhood gas leaks, extreme weather conditions and blackouts. Many first responder groups are trained and prepared for major disasters. However they will be responding to the most critical situations first.

Emergency Preparedness STRATHCONA GARDENS

At the time of an emergency situation, the Campbell River Emergency Support Services Team (CRESST) under the direction of local authorities will open a reception centre for those who have had to leave their homes in the event of an emergency or a disaster. Assistance may include food, lodging, clothing, emotional support, family reunification, and child and pet care. CRESST also provides a similar service for the evacuation of only one or two families (or up to 10 people), without the activation of a Reception Centre. If you would like to become a volunteer with CRESST, email your name and phone number to essvolunteer@ gmail.com People of all ages and skill levels are welcomed. There are jobs and roles for everyone. Meetings are held on the third Monday of the month and focus on education and training. Pictured above are some members of CRESST Campbell River Emergency reviewing procedures. Support Services Team

At a recent workshop on Quadra Island, agencies such as Emergency Management BC, Campbell FACING SCENE & HEARD River Emergency Support Services, Search and Rescue, the Red Cross, PROCESS Salvation Army, and BC Housing talked about the resources that they have available on Vancouver Island. The question is what can we do as individuals to protect ourselves and our families? The answer, we need to be prepared as well!

The Quadra Fire Department, RCMP and Ambulance personnel took part in a full scale mock emergency exercise at the Quadra workshop after a simulated car crash. There were wounded on the ground enacting a variety of types of injuries. Emergency service workers from Vancouver Island witnessed the order of arrival of first responders, a demonstration of traffic and crowd control, an extrication of a victim from a vehicle, and the assessment and colour coded tagging process to determine treatment priorities. A triage centre was set up to treat the injured and a live commentary of events simulated emergency services calls and communication.

Do you have a household plan in case of a disaster? This could include being prepared with exit plans from your home, prepared documentation about each family member, any special needs such as medications, and a ‘grab and go’ bag. ‘Grab and Go’ bags will include essential supplies such as food, water, toiletries, radio, flashlight, first aid kit, whistle etc. to last for 72 hours to a few days. If your group would like to learn more about how to make these preparations contact Diana Dingwall, Director of CRESST and she In an information and demonstration filled three days, will organize a speaker for you. Email her at campbellriveress@gmail.com volunteers from Vancouver Island, and smaller remote islands participated in emergency preparedness sessions. The 162 volunteers in attendance learned from the experts on a variety of topics related to training and preparedness for emergency situations and catastrophes. These included the setting up of a complete reception, rapid planning assessment training, and recovery planning which emphasized the need for early identification of individual and community needs in the aftermath of a disaster. In addition, Campbell The Provincial Emergency Program • Toll Free: 1 – 888 – 811 - 6233 • www.pep.bc.ca River’s Search and Rescue volunteers did a presentation Natural Resources Canada • www.pgc.nrcan.gc.ca/seismo/table.htm about types of response resources and training available through SARs on Vancouver Island.

Taylor, Nancy Patricia Elizabeth (nee Wilson) died peacefully at Yucalta Lodge nursing home in Campbell River, British Columbia after a lengthy illness on Saturday, May 26, 2012. As a young graduate nurse she joined the staff of Toronto's Sick Children's Hospital forming friendships that lasted a lifetime. She remained in contact with this dedicated group throughout her life attending reunions when possible and even returned to nursing for a brief time after her children had grown and left home. Fate had her visiting friends in Montreal for a ski trip when she met her future husband, Graham Taylor. They were married in 1949 and celebrated 44 years of marriage before she became a widow in 1993. During that time they raised 5 children, moving many times and living throughout Quebec and Ontario before settling in Oakville, Ontario at their home "Seldoon House" on the Esplanade. Arriving there with a new baby, number ďŹ ve; the children all remember Seldoon House as the family home perched on the shores of Lake Ontario where they grew up. Upon becoming a widow, NanPat once again packed up and fulďŹ lled a dream that she and Graham had of retiring to Vancouver Island. Victoria was a new adventure and no one was better at promoting the Island's wonderful sights and attractions than Nana as she hosted her visiting children and grandchildren. In her late 70s, she could still hike at a faster pace than the rest of us as she showed us the wonder of places such as Botanical Beach, Ogden Point and Beacon Hill Park. NanPat and Graham shared a belief in donating many of their personal hours to a great deal of community and church groups throughout their lives. They did this with a quiet dedication that resulted in making a true difference in many other lives that they touched both here in Canada and many other parts of the world. It is our belief that after being separated for the last 19 years they are now once again together. The children: Kent (Jane), Tim (Joanne), Dean, Joanne, Su (Larry). The grandchildren: Laren, Kendra, Trevor, Desiree, Michael, Vincent, Nick, Lian. Cremation services were held in Campbell River, BC at Island Funeral Services at 11:00am, Wednesday, may May 30th. Memorial service to follow at Mount Pleasant Cemetery (Toronto) on a date to be announced in the fall.

Entry Deadline: June 28, 2012

Not much has changed since this law dictated what drivers passing emergency vehicles on the shoulder of the road must do in 2009. Drivers still fail to slow down and move over when possible, putting the safety of emergency workers at unnecessary risk. Our provincial Learn to Drive Smart guide speaks of the See, Think, Do method, and that’s exactly what is needed in these situations. TYEE CHEV You have to see the lights of the emergency vehicles, think that an action may be required of you and do plan for and then take the required action. It is not something that you do alone either. When the road is busy, all drivers in the vicinity of stopped emergency vehicles have to co-ordinate and co-operate in order to be successful. It’s not easy to do either. I watched a police vehicle light up and disappear from view ahead of me. I was in the right hand lane of the two northbound lanes so I slowed and anticipated that I might find them stopped ahead. Sure enough, I found them stopped in a corner within a short distance. No one else slowed and no one would make room, despite my signalled request, to make room to allow me to move over. I couldn’t stop as it would likely mean being hit from behind by someone driving at 90+ km/h. So, I slowed right down, moved as close as I dared to my left and crossed my fingers. Thankfully, it all worked out! The author is a retired constable with many years of traffic enforcement experience. To comment or learn more, please visit www.drivesmartbc.ca. Cst.

Campbell River Living Michele’s hooked on the cycling commute M

ichele Fitzgerald has been using her bike as one mode of transport to get herself to and from work for six years. Fitzgerald lives on Quadra Island, and after a workplace move in September 2006, she realized commuting by car on a daily basis would be an expensive undertaking. Instead, she chose to drive to the ferry terminal on Quadra, walk on the

ferry with her bike, and then bike to work – and she’s done this year round and in all weather conditions ever since. Now she’s completely hooked on cycling to work. She always feels great after her morning and afternoon commute. On the few occasions when she has to use her car to commute, “the whole day just feels wrong,” she says. Fitzgerald is full of enthusiasm about the benefits she got

from biking to work. She calls cycling “her morning coffee,” that pumps oxygen to the brain, and provides a wakeup call for her body, along with time for reflection. Fitzgerald has a number of tips for new cyclists. She was lucky when she started commuting that it didn’t rain a single day for two months. So, she was hooked before the rain came. She recommends starting in the nicer weather,

and then sticking to it. Some days, she admits, it’s a wet ride, but she always brings a complete change of clothes, socks and all, and it’s all good. She also suggests working it into a daily routine so that commuting by bike becomes the norm. Finally, she suggests getting decent gear so you’re prepared to be comfortable no matter what the weather. “You don’t even have to spend very much,” she says.

Michele Fitzgerald (right) and Carol Woolsey enjoy a bike commute.

doe who is often very close by, but you may also attract unwanted predators to the fawn’s location. It is a myth that a doe will not take back a fawn that has been handled by humans, we successfully reunited a fawn and doe after the fawn had been in captivity for two days. Fawns must be fed every few hours throughout the day and are unable to travel very far during the first two months after birth. This time is also critical for the fawn’s future survival, the mother passes on not only foraging and survival skills but her precious antibodies which will help the fawn fend off certain diseases which can attack the deer causing diarrhea, dehydration and eventually death. It is against the Wildlife Act to keep any species in captivity and before assuming that an animal

Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society is once again having to care for fawns people thing are abandoned.

or bird is injured or orphaned please call our emergency line at 1-800-304-9968 and we can advise you on how to proceed if necessary. During the time I have volunteered at MARS. I have seen the results of people interfering with wildlife trying to raise baby fawns, racoons, birds, ducklings or other species, but often they end up killing them with kindness. Proper diet and

understanding on how to administer the food is often very difficult. We cannot begin to replicate the methods used by the parents, many birds are fed regurgitated food, others allow the baby to help themselves from inside their mouth or crop, and a doe will lick the fawn to stimulate them to suckle, none of which I would want to do. We are hoping to raise funds to build a permanent fawn

barn to house the fawns which can be very time consuming and their special milk formula is also very expensive. On average, one fawn consumes 1.2 liters of milk a day. We are all very aware of fawns in our areas and some think they are a nuisance, but it is our impact from continually encroaching into their habitat and pushing them into ever-shrinking areas which encourages them to dine in our gardens and occasionally become aggressive with pets and humans. What can you do to help? If you find a fawn watch, wait and call us for advice, if it is on the road carefully move it into the bush if safe to do so. If you see deer at the side of the road slow down expect the deer to jump out, keep your eyes out for them especially when travelling at dawn and dusk. Obey the “deer

crossing” signs, they really do cross there. If you find a dead deer on the road please where possible move it to the side of the road as this will then attract other animals and birds, especially eagles, who may also get hit feeding on the carcass.

New public art installed at Community Centre A new public art piece has been installed at the Community Centre. A partnership between the Campbell River Arts Council, John Howard Society, the Coastal Community Credit Union and the City created the program that brought

together artist Jill Banting and the youth of John Howard to create a vibrant piece of public art. Working together, Banting and a number of youth representatives from John Howard designed a window art transfer intended to bring vibrancy and

energy to a popular, yet otherwise dull and colourless, part of the city. The public artwork sends a positive message that local youth are taking pride in their city and using art to revitalize our collective downtown space. The process is an

example of how partnerships between local business, social services, the Arts Council, youth groups and the City can combine to envision projects that make our downtown core a more attractive place. Epic Design did the print job on the window.

Motorcycles thrill at Speedway The motorcycles lit up the race track at Saratoga Speedway last weekend. The Motorcycles were up in bikes on Saturday, with a field of six taking to the track. Bruce Moran (#68) dominated the motorcycle division on Saturday, setting fast time in qualifying with a time of 23.120. From that point on, Moran had no competition, taking home wins in the dash, heat and leading all but four laps in the main event to win every race in the motorcycle division. So far this season, Moran has won six of seven races, proving that you’re going to have to bring your best to beat him. Daryl Cahill (#02) dominated the 35-lap feature for the hornet cars, leading all but four laps and taking home his secondstraight main event

win, inching his way closer to catching his brother Daryn Cahill (#08) for first overall in the points race. The I.M.C.A modifieds, bomber cars and the motorcycles were also all on the racing card on Saturday. The I.M.C.A Modi-

fieds were making their second appearance of the year. Bart Smith (#00) once again set fast time with a time of 15.312. Smith took home the win in the dash, with a hard fought win in the heat going to Kevin Noble (#53). Seven cars took

to the track for their 30 lap feature race. Tim Openshaw (#44) battled Smith, Noble and others to hold his lead for the first 20 laps. A lap car on lap 20 caused Openshaw, Pat Brown (#98) and Smith to go four wide down the back stretch, Continued on A29

Ravens welcome relegation KRISTEN DOUGLAS/THE MIRROR

Pitch and release The peewee Mets pitcher tries to keep the Yankee runner at first base honest during Campbell River Minor Baseball action at Nunns Creek Park on Saturday afternoon.

Literally moments before taking the floor on Sunday May 27 for the game against Oceanside Bantam B, the Windsor Plywood Bantam Ravens were officially notified by Va n c o u ve r I s l a n d Minor Lacrosse that they had been relegated from B to C division. If the standard for B

division is a minimum of 35 years of experience (total team experience after removing the highest and lowest values), the Ravens are around 25. The relegation of the Ravens plus two other teams from B to C should result in closer, more competitive games to the end of the regular season.

The players reacted to this news as if a weight had been lifted off of their shoulders. Their relaxed state didn’t mean they were going to let Oceanside run over them‌far from it! Nolan Morrison opened the scoring with a wicked shot to the goalie’s stickside.

He came to the bench and shared with everyone “he gave me that whole side‌it’s wideopen!â€? To help illustrate his point, Morrison scored the first three goals for the Ravens and their final one as well. He finished with four goals Continued on A29

Bantam Ravens unravel in the final frame Continued from A28 in the game – three to the same spot. Greatly improved positioning on defence and commitment to each other

helped the Ravens avoid panic and frustration as they finished the first period trailing by a score of 5-4. The second period

belonged to the Ravens. Nolan Fair was rewarded for playing tight defence as he earned a few loose

balls that he either converted into breakaways for himself or used to send others on runs of their own. Fair led all Raven scorers with one goal and four assists. Goalie Will McLean was solid between the pipes, sometimes stopping three or four shots within a five or 10 second span. After one flurry, McLean scooped the ball into his goalie stick and looked towards midcourt for the usual outlet pass. Ross Rickman

was there with his stick up, basket high, giving McLean an excellent target. Despite light pressure from Oceanside, McLean stepped into his pass. Rickman caught the ball cleanly and quickly turned up the floor. Like Wayne G re t z k y o r M a r i o Lemieux putting a move on a defenceman at the blueline, Rickman slipped through the Oceanside defenders and took the ball to the net with a great burst of speed. Remember-

ing Morrison’s words, Rickman fired a rocket on net to the stick-side and scored his first goal of the season to give the Ravens a lead of 7-6 at the end of the second. The third period saw Oceanside respond with a vengeance. They let it all hang out in an effort to score. The Ravens focused on controlling the ball, steering the ball-carrier into the corner and containing them. Oceanside scored six goals in the third period while the

Ravensonly added two more of their own. Final score was 12-9 in favour of Oceanside. Additional Raven scoring came from Zach Lontayao (two goals), Connor Ludvigson (two assists), Reilly Doney (1G), Daniel Gilson (1A), David Lavigne (1A) and Jasper Osterhout-Code (1A). The schedule-makers are still working on the revised schedule for the Bantam C Ravens so stay tuned for their next game.

with Smith coming out of it in first place, dropping Openshaw into third place. Smith would pull away from the pack from there, taking home his second main event win of the year. The bomber cars were also making their second appearance of the year on Saturday. In the 30-lap feature, Darren

Larson (#5) got out to an early lead and held onto it for the first 10 laps until Stewart Lee (#72) fought his way around the outside of Larson coming out of turn four to take the lead. Lee had no competition from there, stretching his lead over Gilles Cyr to over half a lap and eventually taking home the win. The hor net cars were racing for the

second weekend in a row on Saturday. The 35-lap feature main event was dominated by Daryl Cahill (#02). Daryl took the lead on lap four and stretched his lead from there, lapping several cars in his path. Kevin and Jennifer Lawrenuk would battle for second and third with brother Kevin eventually taking home second, and third going to Jenni-

fer. Extra laps Next weekend features crash to pass, roadrunners and the hornet cars. June 16 is the annual Car Toss Competition. The record for the competition is 64 feet, six inches set in 2008; crash to pass, hornets and roadrunners will also be on the racing card.
