PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW - Wednesday, June 13, 2012

More art to come Gallery by the Sea on the iconic fish market will open a bit late this season. The annual gallery of nine works put on by the Community Arts Council of the Saanich Peninsula will be pushed back due to construction on the Beacon wharf. With work expected to be complete in early July, the hope is to have the gallery up for public viewing and voting by mid July. It will run right through October, coinciding with the ArtSea Festival and Sidney Fine Art Show.

The crowd that came out for the sculpture walk launch listens to speeches while a woman examines the piece called Muse. See the sculpture walk map, with de descriptions of each piece of art, on page A15.

Walk the walk

Christine van Reeuwyk N News staff

lready known for its fish market Gallery by the Sea, Sidney’s long, meandering gallery of art opened officially Friday morning. Twelve works of art will dot the Sidney Seaside Sculpture Walk, two kilometres of seaside walkway starting at the f foot of Beacon Avenue. “Cities gain value through pu public art, cultural, social and ec economic value. Public art can be seen as a defining aspect of our evolving culture. It reflects our society, adds meaning to our citie and uniqueness to our comcities mu munities,” said J.C. Scott of the s sculpture selection committee. “ “Public art humanizes the built e environment and invigorates pu public spaces. It provides an intersection between the past, present and future; between people and between ideas. Public art is f freely accessible.”” An acceptance committee, including Diane Thorpe, Larry Hanlon, J.C. Scott, Erin Bremner and Sidney Coun. Marilyn Loveless reviewed 29 submissions to settle on the 12 that start the walkway gallery.

“These amazing works of art bring a special experience to our already beautiful seaside,” said Sidney Mayor Larry Cross. “The Sidney seaside walk is one of the most popular on the Island and these exhibits will only enhance the quality of that walk.” When complete, the walk will follow the 2.5 km Heart Smart Walk along Sidney’s waterfront. It starts this year with works by Armando Barbon, Ronald Crawford, Fred Dobbs, Lyle Hamer, Paul Harder, Deryk and Samuel Houston, David Hunwick, Jack Kreutzer, Philip Organ, Michael Robb, Louis-Marc Simard and Lyman Whitaker. Cross figures the works of these local artists can only boost the community. “The sculpture walk is good for the town. This is a great example of how the arts and business can coexist and support each other,” he said. “People will be drawn to our downtown core as a result of the sculpture walk and are apt to do a bit of shopping and grab a bite to eat in one of our fine restaurants while they’re here. They will also go home and tell their friends and family about this special attraction and our friendly community.” The artwork will stay in place, on loan to the town and up for sale by each artist, for two years. The town plans to replace the artwork on an ongoing basis, changing up the outdoor art gallery. “What better gallery could an artist ask for in which to show and sell their work?” Cross asked. “Each year new pieces will be added to the exhibit until the entire two kilometre walk is complete.” Learn how to submit artwork at sculpturewalk. ca. reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

The old tennis courts and temporary skate park in Centennial Park are slated for removal as part of the revitalization of the Central Saanich park. Work is slated to start in the fall of 2013. Left: image courtesy of the District of Central Saanich

Provincial grant aids Centennial Park upgrade Bike lanes, fitness area could be in store for park Christine van Reeuwyk News staff

Central Saanich will get the bulk of the work it wants to do in Centennial Park at a basement budget after getting some provincial funds. The district applied last fall for grant funding for the Centennial Park revitalization project through the Community Recreation Program. They were awarded $300,000.

“It’s 80 per cent funding by the province and 20 per cent from the municipality,” said Mayor Alastair Bryson. That means the cost to the district is $75,000 over three years. The 2012-16 financial plan provides for upgrades to the core portion of the park – the tennis court, playground and skate park (which was intended to be temporary). To stay within the $375,000 budget, the district had to alter the plan for Centennial. “It’s quite good value for the community,” Bryson said. “We can scale back the project and still check most of the significant boxes, so we’re being fiscally

responsible.” All the major components are there, he said. That includes decommissioning the old tennis courts, relocation and upgrade of the playground, adding a multi-purpose sport court and putting in benches, bike racks and garbage bins. The components left for future consideration include cycling and pedestrian improvements to Wallace Drive between Prosser Road and Blossom Park and a multi-station fitness area. They anticipate phase one of construction to begin in the fall of 2013 with phase two to follow the next year. reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

Despite losing a $26,000 grant for Internet service, the Greater Victoria Public Library will not be cutting any of the coveted computer stations at its branches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because we are a larger system, it does impact our operating budget, but we are in the fortunate position that we can absorb the reduction,â&#x20AC;? said Maureen Sawa, CEO of GVPL. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But [for] many of our colleagues on the Island, in some of the smaller library systems on Vancouver Island, this is really going to be a blow.â&#x20AC;? Sawa was speaking out in solidarity with these smaller libraries, which stand to lose their only public computer stations. On March 31, the federal government cut its Community Access Program, which has helped to fund computers and Internet technologies in libraries since 1995. According to Industry Canada, the program met its objective to make Internet accessible. It launched in an age when only 10 per cent of Canadian households

â&#x2013; The Central Saanich branch is the smallest of the Greater Victoria public libraries and has five public computers. Each month, an average of 650 people log on for a session at one of these computers. â&#x2013; The Central branch in downtown Victoria is the largest in the system. It has 60 public computers, which are used 10,000 a month.

had Internet service at home. As of 2010, that proportion had grown to 79 per cent. But from the perspective of GVPLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manager of public service, the need for computers at the library has not changed over time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We see no sign of that diminishing, in spite of statistics that say that a huge number of Canadians have access to Internet in their own home,â&#x20AC;? said Patricia Eaton. The computer stations are well used

and often have a queue, she said. A wide cross-section of people use the stations, including those of limited means, students and seniors without the knowledge to set up a home computer. The issue of the cut came to the attention of Victoria city council last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All Canadians, regardless of economic status or location, should have the ability to access information and services through broadband connection to the Internet,â&#x20AC;? Coun. Pam Madoff wrote in a report. She recommended council write to local MPs requesting their support in reinstating the federal program. GVPLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s management are now looking at ways to absorb the $26,000 cut without affecting service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of the funding that we received helped to do the upgrades to our computers,â&#x20AC;? Sawa said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will mean that in some of our locations, that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen as quickly.â&#x20AC;? Whether the library will ask area municipalities for an increase in its annual budget request to compensate for the cut is yet to be seen. rholmen@vicnews.com

Arkestyne said. In a prominent corner of the Beacon Avenue museum sits a special display to commemorate the Peninsula News Reviewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 100 years of bringing news to the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were no paved roads or electric lights in the area, but that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop the group of businessmen who met in 1912 from seeing a very different future,â&#x20AC;? writes former PNR editor Judy Reimche as part of the display. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The foresighted group realized they needed a public voice if the area was ever going to be taken seriously as its own entity.â&#x20AC;? The News Review â&#x20AC;&#x201C; then the Sidney and Islands Review â&#x20AC;&#x201C; published its first issue Dec. 13, 1912. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the decades a succession of editors and reporters has continued that vision, covering the news of the Peninsula â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at first called North Saanich â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the Gulf Islands through world wars, struggling economic times, successes and celebrations.â&#x20AC;? That work is marked with a series of 10 front pages on display, marking the decades and showing the dramatic changes to information and production over the past century.

Students reflected their sentiments in writing after their experience at the learning centre set up in the library at Stelly’s secondary school last week. It taught students about residential schools and other issues. Students at Stelly’s can soon be even more submersed in First Nations culture when the school offers a 4&/Æ0Ħ&/ language course. Christine van Reeuwyk/News staff

New course builds relationships Continued from page A1

“It’s been powerful but also positive,” said Terry Steele, First Nations support teacher at Stelly’s. It was just one portion of ሆ 4 /&Æ week at Stelly’s honouring the four First Nation communities on the Saanich Peninsula. Other events included talks from local chiefs, traditional food and nature walks. “It’s a start of a new beginning and a new relationship, not just here on the Peninsula, but beyond,” said Philip Tom, cultural education assistant at Stelly’s. “Students and teachers had open minds … This week has been overwhelming with the aboriginal learning opportunities.” Monday they launched the cherry on top – a new introductory 4&/Æ0Ħ&/ program in true ሆ 4 /&Æ style with a feast for elders, staff, administration and chiefs. “The foundation comes from the tribal school, John Elliot, the elders group and the apprentice group.

Without them we couldn’t offer this program,” Tom said. “I believe [the language] is starting to make a comeback and a lot of pride is coming back to our people with the language coming back.” Elliott is a language teacher at - 6 8&-/&8 and strong 4&/Æ0Ħ&/ advocate working to reestablish the language. The introductory 4&/Æ0Ħ&/, while designated a Grade 11 course, will be open to all students. “Offering it just demonstrates an inherent level of respect for the 4&/Æ0Ħ&/ language and ሆ 4 /&Æ culture,” Steele said. Forty one students have already registered and the school expects to expand the course to cover other grades in the future. Stelly’s follows the footsteps of - 6 8&-/&8 Tribal School on West Saanich Road which already uses the Education Ministry and locally developed 4&/Æ0Ħ&/ language and culture curriculum. reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

OUR VIEW

A relationship still in doubt Like a photo op in the Peninsula News Review mid May, Thursday night showed no sign of the speedbumps on the road to this year’s summer market. The May photo showed Sidney Mayor Larry Cross shaking hands with Edward Connor, then-president of the Sidney Business Association, which runs the market. It was a clear sign that the two groups had kissed and A breakup and made up after a nasty a makeup later, breakup over the prior months. the relationship Thursday night remains tense was something like showing up at a dinner party and seeing your formerly broken up pals chatting and laughing like nothing had happened. It felt a bit shaky, given the history but there was hope there, too. The market seemed to have gone ahead quite well. There was no shortage of vendor stalls to browse, despite the concession to include fewer stalls this year to allow more sightlines to Beacon Avenue businesses. The vendors were all smiles, as were the hundreds of shoppers who roamed the street. It could be said this summer’s market wasn’t a sure thing at one point. When the town cancelled the SBA’s contract to run it just six weeks before the opening date, the future looked rather grim. But with all affected parties – the town, SBA, vendors, Beacon Avenue merchants and most importantly, the public – adamant the market had to go ahead, it did. While the rockiest road appears to be behind us, we can’t be certain no further changes will come to the market. After Thursday’s season opener, some merchants have still complained of business lost and the SBA worries about lost revenue due to fewer vendors. Hence, there’s no better time to support Sidney’s market and show all players how much we want it in our community. What do you think?

Goodbye, greenhouse gas goals In February this column asked B.C. is losing gas market share in the question: “Are B.C.’s greenhouse the U.S., its only export customer gas reduction targets history?” for heating fuel and electricity use. The answer is contained in a new Former premier Gordon draft plan from B.C. Hydro Campbell’s climate goals on how to meet future officially remain in place: power demand. And while 33 per cent greenhouse it’s not explicitly stated, gas reduction by 2020 and the answer is yes. a whopping 80 per cent The draft plan was by 2050. released in May for If the gas boom discussion purposes, but proceeds as planned, so far there hasn’t been B.C. domestic emissions much discussion. This is will not be down, but up surprising given some of considerably by 2020. the recommendations, Premier Christy Clark Tom Fletcher has a new target for 2020: such as firing up the B.C.

Despite that low price,

gas producers in B.C. are going flat out to develop the Horn River and Montney shale gas deposits in northeast B.C. I asked David Pryce, vicepresident of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, why so much gas is being developed now. He said producers have made huge investments in B.C. shale gas drilling rights, and are in an international race to supply LNG to Asian countries where the price is currently four times higher than in North America. Whatever the domestic price, B.C. gas producers have to show LNG investors such as Mitsubishi and Korea Gas that they can fill a steady procession of LNG tankers at a competitive rate. If LNG doesn’t fly here, B.C.’s gas export market soon evaporates. Currently gas producers pay about $400 million a year in royalties, and that much again to buy up shale gas drilling rights. The industry already employs about 12,000 workers in B.C. The B.C. government has little choice but to redefine its climate targets. Instead of cutting domestic emissions, it will try to take credit for displacing coal power in Asia. Fortunately, B.C.’s main coal exports are for high-grade coal used in steel-making.

LETTERS Sculpture walk process great for artists I congratulate the organizers of the Sidney Seaside Sculpture Walk. I am one of the artists and I have shown my work in the former Soviet Union, Scotland, Iraq and the U.S. The process for this event was handled in a professional manner in every way and I give them top marks. We thank everyone for this opportunity to show our work. My son Samuel and I designed and constructed “Sanctuary of Peace.” The world is full of conflict and our sculpture that perhaps looks like a blade of grass, represents new growth, new hope.

Zoning changes raise resident questions Re: Serious effects of Sidney zoning bylaw loom: resident (Letters, June 6) and Owners dispair zoning change (News, June 1) I am sad to hear what the Town of Sidney has planned for my neighbourhood by rezoning properties. I am worried how it will affect me and my neighbours. Am I correct in understanding the town is not legally required to inform the homeowners, in writing, that their land is to be rezoned and their homes will become non-conforming? Could this lack of action, on the town’s behalf towards its property owners, be considered legally right but morally wrong? Is this how the town treats property owners and taxpayers? Some have lived in their homes more than 20 years and are now elderly or not in the best of health. Will a sophisticated developer buy one house and rent it to bad tenants, causing neighbouring home values to plummet? Will this be a developer’s gain and our loss? When an owner decides to sell his home, will a buyer be able to get a mortgage if the house is deemed non-conforming? If a home is destroyed by fire or earthquake, will the owner be allowed to rebuild another single family dwelling, as it will be nonconforming? Will an insurance company

insure a home that is nonconforming? If an elderly resident leaves his or her home to a son or daughter, will that person be able to add on to the old home or build another in its place, as it will be nonconforming? Will the town refuse to give me a building permit for a garage, a sunroom or a deck? Lu Ann Fraser Sidney

Three road jobs aren’t better than one I would like to put some perspective on the latest Frost Avenue road work. As a resident of Frost Avenue, I certainly am not ungrateful for the new sidewalk, nor am I necessarily against the improvements to the curbs and repaving of this street. Rather, I am frustrated to be in the midst of a third road work project since 2009. As a taxpayer I am angry that we all will be paying triple for projects or portions thereof that could have and should have been rolled into one. I appreciate that the first job was unplanned and became necessary after it was discovered the storm drains were failing. Fair enough. Surely that was the time to look into the upcoming project books and take note that sewer line replacement, new curbs, a sidewalk and the repaving of Frost were planned for 2010 and 2012. Wasn’t that the time for planners to find a way to finance the entire project into one job? For the third spring season the north side of the street is dug up, three times it is filled, driveways, landscaping patched and roadway patched. Somehow this just seems to be a blatant waste of money. Apparently there isn’t enough money to repair or replace the winter storm damaged seawall, though. Different budgets, I guess. Barbara Fallot Sidney

Sidney beacon was last lit in Commonweath The first of 4,200 beacons to celebrate the Queen’s diamond jubilee was lit in in the town of Blenheim on the northernmost tip of New Zealand’s south island. The chain of flares could have reached the beacon at the east end of Beacon Avenue

We are living in a strange and rapidly changing world, where major economies are on the brink of default on their huge debts. In Canada, anti-federal government voices are in the media almost daily even though we are on track to hopefully avoid the kind of Greek-style tragedy unfolding in Europe. Our natural resources will be our saviour in a world where the saviour options are few and far between. Our resource sector is the economic engine keeping Canada afloat. Canadians are being force fed the (Opposition fabricated) idea that Canada will now have no environmental watchdogs or safeguards. All that with a minor reduction in government spending. That seems a little odd to me. I also do not think Stephen Harper, who has been vilified by so many, has instructed the various government agencies where they should make cuts. I believe many environmental

regulations may have been too restrictive and cumbersome before the proposed budget bill changes and were causing legitimate resource development to be indefinitely stalled or reviewed out of existence by those who make it their business to oppose. The stakes are high. Because of our natural resources and energy reserves, Canada has the unique ability to survive in a world where manufacturing is being sucked into. If Canada can survive with our standard of living mostly intact, we will be one of the few developed countries that will. Years more high deficits added to our large national debt and we will sink, like much of Europe. Canada can be a society that has the financial resources to care for our rapidly aging population and have some significant influence internationally, or we can fade into economic obscurity, adrift and unable to finance our social programs, health care and educational systems.

From CO2 to melting ice caps – it’s all good Thank you to Fred Langford for his letter regarding the production of carbon dioxide – “We need more carbon dioxide to stimulate more crop growth” (Letters, May 11) Understanding how earth changes are really about Mother Earth re-balancing herself are so important with the numerous frightening reports that imply other views. I have one for you Fred – the melting of the ice cap is providing for the necessary diluting of the saline content of the ocean waters so that life in the sea can more soundly sustain itself for millennia to come.

This week in history ■ 1916: The fire brigade is reorganized and 12 volunteers are called for to constitute the new brigade. Those spaces were quickly filled and the new chief is W. Cowell and deputy is A. Critchley. It is also decided the brigade will host weekly practices, each Wednesday evening. ■ 1949: Provincial election results are in. Arthur J.B. Ash, Coalition candidate, more than triples his majority in the district. Also victorious is George S. Pearson of the Gulf Islands. ■ 1995: Peninsula Co-op wants to relocate and expand its grocery store, but its concept plan and rezoning application have been in the works for 13 months already, due to a moratorium on development in Central Saanich. Mayor Arlene Box said council has to deal with the local area plan, the Hagan Creek drainage study and development cost charges before it can be dealt with.

in Sidney. The last time I saw Sidney’s beacon flare up was to mark the start of the millennium and as far as I am aware, it was the last beacon to be lit in the Commonwealth. However, because it is powered by natural gas, I was told it was too expensive to light for the jubilee. What price is required to mark the second time in history that a reigning monarch has achieved a diamond jubilee? Whether one is for the monarchy or not, the Queen is the head of the 54 countries that make up the Commonwealth of Nations, including Canada, and the lighting of the beacon would have been so appropriate and in keeping with our sister nations. As part of the diamond jubilee celebrations, the Royal Commonwealth Society is putting together a time capsule as a gift which will be given to the Queen. Members of the Commonwealth are invited to write a story about a particular event or personal memory that took place somewhere in Commonwealth during the past 60 years which they would like to share with the Queen. The story can include photographs, videos, songs and poems to illustrate that special moment. Stories can be entered through the website at www. jubileetimecapsule.org until Sept. 30.

Tanning beds and your eyes As a means to achieve the perfect bronzed glow, tanning beds have become the latest craze over the last few years. What people may not factor in is the tanning devices, just like the sun, emit harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Besides the risk of skin cancer, these rays, after prolonged exposure, can damage your cornea and may cause cataracts or macular degeneration. For optimal tanning bed eye safety, make sure you wear protective goggles that cover and ﬁt snugly over your eyes. If you use the salon’s goggles, be sure they have been sterilized to prevent infection. Also, be sure to remove contact lenses before tanning. Remember closing your eyes, wearing sunglasses, or using cotton pads to cover your eyelids will not prevent harmful UV rays from ﬁltering through and causing damage to your eyes. A great tan is not worth the risk of ruining your eyesight.

multitudes of irises. And a lovely visit it was, too. Besides the spectacular irises, the pure red geum and two-tone pink clematis (Nelly Moser?) were also greatly admired, while the impeccable astilbes and hostas were noted with envy. It is so useful to visit other gardens. I learn so much and become inspired to attempt more in my own garden. Post Cathy, I shall give leftover tea to my future lilacs and try, despite my timid ways, to be a bit more daring in colours, forms and textures. Previously, Heide R. inspired me to grow more climbing things like golden hops and especially honeysuckles. I love the scent of honeysuckles. Why not plant many and have more and longer aromatic pleasures? Mary is another gardening role model, who encourages me to get outside, place more meaningful garden art throughout and to keep up with the weeding. And in Helen’s company, I learn again and again to look closely, appreciating everything in its turn.

The Parkland Panthers senior girls co-captains Amanda Pomphrey and Katie Kraeutner accept the seventh place plaque at provincials. submitted photo

Panthers score seventh in B.C. After a second place finish on the Island the Parkland senior girls soccer team scored seventh place in the province during B.C. Senior AA girls high school soccer championship in Kamloops. The Parkland girls finished second in their pool during round robin play. They crossed over in the quarter-finals and

lost to Burnsview, who were the defending provincial champions. They then beat L.V. Rogers to capture seventh place, which was the best placing in Parkland girls soccer history. In four of the five games at provincials June 1 to 3, the girls were awarded the Referee’s Top Player of the game. Kristy Gallagher, Amanda Pom-

phrey, Kate Service and Katie Kraeutner were game MVPs. Gallagher was also selected for the Commissioner 11 award. The coaches commended the Panthers team on its competitive spirit and camaraderie. The team will travel to Ottawa June 26 to July 3. sports@peninsulanewsreview.com

■ The Peninsula Track and Field club athletes will hit Duncan for a meet this weekend. They’ll have a lot riding on their scores as it will be the trials for the B.C. Summer Games.

It is no easy task to tackle the pentathlon, where you have to compete in five different events all in one day. But athletes from across the Island battled it out at the Blue Heron track last weekend to prove they were worthy of the challenge. For nine-year-old Julia Peterson in her first season of track, it proved to be the highlight of her year with the Pen Track club. Following a winning throw in the shot put at the recent Nanaimo meet, she triumphed in each of the hurdles, high jump, long jump, shot and 800m events to take the overall title in her age group. Following her example, Amelia Casciola, 15, took her category with a winning total of 1,789 points, with Jacqueline Gaby, 15, filling second place with 1,476 points. For Julie Irwin, it was an agonizing one point that robbed her of a silver medal, when she had to settle for third place behind Lindsey Frederikson’s (unaffiliated) 1,739 points. On the boys’ side, Connor McCullough, 12, continued his successful season, amassing 1,962 points to take the title ahead of Finn Battersby with

Masters athlete Sandy Anderson (W70) led the way with her 3,055 points, while Les East (M70) scored 2,833 points and Phil Brodeur, showing that being 92 is no bar to having fun at the track, recorded 1,914 points. Further down the age scale, Courtney Neville-Rutherford, 16, tallied 2,963 points to take her category. Of note at the earlier Nanaimo meet, Jennifer Liu, 15, registered wins in both the discus (27.27m) and the hammer (29.04m), while Jaqueline Gaby again took the 1500m race walk event and Annina Lorenzo, 16, won the 800m race with a 2:30.65 personal best. sports@peninsulanewsreview.com

Sidney’s The Town of Sidney officially opened the Seaside Sculpture Walk on Friday, June 8. Twelve sculptures will stand along Sidney’s 2.5 kilometre waterfront in a

public art display on loan for two years. The town hopes to replace the sculptures to provide a rotating outdoor gallery for walkers. This citizen-led initiative could

eventually include dozens more sculptures, said Richard Paquette, a member of the sculpture walk committee, with more art added every year. Each piece is for sale by

the artist. Use this map to find each sculpture and read information from the artist about each piece.

Eye of the Ocean David Hunwick Casts of two whale rib bones connect to form an eye, through which people can look at the views off Sidney. The shape of the bones also represent the whale’s eye looking back to shore.

Beacon Park Sea Otter Plaque Fred Dobbs The plaque shows the balance in the relationship between three living things. When sea otters eat sea urchins, this minimizes the latter’s ability to eat kelp, which helps the aquatic plant thrive and maintain an underwater habitat for the otters.

The Muse captures movement, seduction, lyricism in its form. It is a visual story with missing clues, just as nature was never planned, but is a clear representation of intelligent design.

The centaur called Chiron was not destructive like his counterparts and acted as a beacon of hope for others to follow and change their destructive course.

The Keeper Ronald T. Crawford

This North Saanich artist’s appreciation of nature is reflected in his bronze sculptures of animals which aim to capture motion.

The artist’s signature piece stands 16 feet tall. The very movement of kinetic art draws people to it.

Carved from Salt Spring Island sandstone, the Keeper is a representation of strength as its form leans into the winds that whip the Sidney shoreline during storms.

Black bear spotted near VGH Bear season officially began on Sunday, June 10, when a black bear was spotted just before 8 a.m. in the 1900 block of Burnside Road West. Residents in the area just north of the Victoria General Hospital called Saanich police when they saw what they described as a large bear in their backyard. The bear, believed to be moving in the general direction of the Highland Pacific Golf Course, was no longer on site by the time police arrived. Police remind residents to be vigilant with the storage of household refuse, compost and other items which may attract wildlife to their property.

It is an important part of caring for people at the end of life,” said Karen Morgan, executive director of the foundation. “Peninsula Singers’ wonderful concerts are a heartfelt and particularly appropriate way to support this program in the palliative care unit at the Saanich Peninsula Hospital.” reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

NEWS REVIEW

It’s open season for market goers

Shoppers take to Beacon Avenue on Thursday, June 7 for the first day of the 2012 Sidney summer market season.

Erin Cardone News staff

Though the weather threatened the town all day, the sun shone just in time for the opening of the 2012 summer market. Hundreds of people flocked to Beacon Avenue on Thursday, June 7 for the first market of the season. The event went off without a hiccup. Food carts tickled the nostrils while piles of vegetables, cheese, baking, arts and crafts provided an outdoor shopping experience at 165 vendor stalls. Sidney Mayor Larry Cross made an official address to honour the opening of the market. This, despite some turmoil around the market’s management in past months. Citing breach of trust, the Town of Sidney ousted the Sidney Business Association from the position of manager of the market and issued a request for proposals for new management. After a presentation from the SBA’s lawyer, Sidney council reversed its decision and re-instated the SBA. The market continues every Thursday night, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Beacon Avenue until August. editor@peninsulanewsreview.com

PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW - Wednesday, June 13, 2012

HEALTHY LIFESTYLES Eating more vegetables means better health It’s not always easy to make sure our meals include the recommended number of vegetable servings on a daily basis. Here are a few simple tips from professional chef Jérôme Ferrer that will help you add veggies to your diet when meal planning: • Keep the water left over from cooking your vegetables to make broths or to add to your soups and sauces. • The simplest way, and certainly the easiest, is to make a beautiful green salad. A drizzle of olive oil and a few drops of balsamic vinegar and voilà: it’s fully dressed. Add a few cherry tomatoes for colour and to increase your vegetable value even more. • Fill half your plate with vegetables at lunch and dinner. This practice will make counting your vegetable servings so much easier. • Count your servings. Sometimes you may not be aware of how you’re tracking. To assist with tallying, a leading juice brand offers incentives for you to track your fruit and vegetable servings

online at www.facebook.com/mottsgardencocktail. • If you’re short on time, try using frozen vegetables. Freezing immediately after harvesting preserves their vitamins and essential minerals. They’re the perfect solution for busy weeknights. • When you’re on-the-go, take single-serve juice along. Read the labels when shopping for nutrition information. The single-serve Mott’s Garden Cocktail Original, for example, is 100 per cent vegetable juice with 35 per cent less sodium. It gives you two full servings of vegetables in every 250 mL serving. • If you crave a little nibble before a meal, snack on a few raw crunchy veggies with your favourite dip. Canada’s Food Guide recommends adults between the ages of 19 and 50 should get seven to 10 servings of vegetables and fruit every day. Do it to up the ante for a healthier you.

Adults need seven to 10 servings of veggies and fruits every day.

NEWS REVIEW

HEALTHY LIFESTYLES Revive the healing response A single celled organism acts independently to do what it needs to do to survive. It will move away from danger, move towards food and reproduce when necessary. Our body began as a single cell upon conception, but then it divided exponentially to an estimated 70 trillion cells. Each one of our cells wants to survive and they have exchanged their independence for information. Indeed, after the ﬁrst week of conception, we begin to grow the nervous system to provide the necessary information as we become more complex. This is the central organizing authority connected to each cell designed to deliver and receive information so that each cell can produce the required response ensuring whole body survival. When functioning without interference, the clear communication pathways of the nervous system permits the innate intelligence of the body to regulate and selfheal with ease. Physical, emotional and chemical stress can overload your nervous system creating dis-ease. Compromised nerve signals may be exaggerated, reduced, or distorted in some way. We know these symptoms as pain, headaches, numbness and tingling, loss of energy, weakness, inﬂammation, etcetera. When this happens, your cells relying on correct information will begin to elicit unfavorable responses such as stiffness, muscle spasms or worse. Chiropractic care is a natural, drug-free approach to better health that works to ensure your nervous system functions at optimum performance so you can express your full health potential. Revive your healing response with a chiropractic visit and get well and stay well.

Seeing a stroke in the making Stroke causes about six per cent of all deaths in Canada, making it the third-leading cause of death. According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, nearly 14,000 Canadians die from stroke each year. A stroke is a sudden loss of brain function predominantly caused by the interruption of blood flow to the brain (ischemic stroke). The interruption of blood flow causes brain cells in the affected area to die. The impact of a stroke depends on the area of the brain that has been injured and how much damage occurred. Strokes can lead to physical and behavioural impairment, significant disability, or even death. Prevention You have the power to manage some of the major risks of stroke. It’s important to be aware of the risk factors that you can control such as obesity, diet, stress level, smoking, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. It’s also a good time to learn about conditions such as atrial fibrillation (AF) and its impact on stroke. AF is the most common form of cardiac

arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat, which affects an estimated 350,000 Canadians. People who have AF have a three-to-five times greater risk for stroke than those without AF. The risk for stroke increases with age as after age 60, one-third of all strokes are caused by AF. It’s an exciting time in the research and treatment of stroke prevention in AF. Until recently, Canadians with AF had one oral anticoagulant treatment option for the prevention of stroke. This treatment requires regular international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring (blood tests) and dose adjustments. New treatment options have become available in recent years, including once-daily and twice-daily oral anticoagulants now available for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with AF that do not require INR monitoring (blood tests) or dose adjustments. As with any condition, patients should always speak to their healthcare professional about the best treatment option for their needs.

Experienced a stroke… A stroke can severely impact a person’s normal, daily functions, as well as their family, friends and workplace. While no stroke is exactly the same, here are some of the many changes a patient may experience: Cognitive disabilities ■ Impact on memory and ability to think and learn ■ Difficulty understanding sensory information such as vision, hearing, touch, taste and smell, which can affect how stroke survivors process what their senses are telling them ■ Feelings of depression due to fear, anxiety, frustration, anger, sadness and/or a sense of grief caused by the physical and mental losses associated with stroke Physical impairment ■ Loss of strength, feeling and co-ordination that may impact mobility and balance ■ Problems eating and swallowing ■ Inability to physically express thoughts and feelings, and understand others ■ Fatigue and reduced energy levels ■ Pain and stiffness in joints and limbs Visit www.heartandstroke.com for more information.

Parkland students discovered a lot about 18 different charities in the Greater Victoria area while working in groups to advocate for a local, grassroots, social charity as part of the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative. “It really bridges that gap between school and community and it shows the community what our students are capable of,” said teacher Heidi Hackman. “We looked at their values and what was important to them.” The Planning 10 students broke into groups to look at social issues that were important them, then researched charities that aligned with those issues. “From that they’ve made contact with the charity, some students have started volunteering with their organization and now they’ve created a presentation.” Those were judged by a panel at Parkland secondary school on May 23. “Once the students made con-

COVER-TO-COVER

The B.C. government is plugging a loophole that has prompted hundreds of people to claim they are giving away vehicles to friends or “acquaintances” rather than pay sales tax on the transaction. When it adopted the harmonized sales tax in 2010, the B.C. government increased its separate tax on private sales of cars, boats and other vehicles from seven per cent to 12. The federal goods and services tax doesn’t apply to private sales and the B.C. government said it wanted to level the playing field between private sales and used cars purchased from dealers. The jump in the tax rate appears to have made a chronic tax evasion problem worse, as sales of even high-end cars have become popular to give away, at least on paper. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon said the new provincial sales tax legislation specifies that vehicle gifts can only be given to a genuine relative or a

registered charity. “Clearly we’ve had a situation in British Columbia where there has been an enormous effort underway for the public to avoid paying tax owing when they sell vehicles,” Falcon said. “Either you accept that explanation or you just believe that people have become extraordinarily generous in British Columbia in giving away their high-end vehicles, including Mercedes, Porsches and BMWs, to individuals who they are not acquainted with but they are describing as friends or best friends or acquaintances.” Falcon estimated the tax dodge has been costing the B.C. treasury “tens of millions” each year. An effort to tighten up the gift process last year by replacing a letter declaring the vehicle is a gift with a detailed form for buyers and sellers didn’t relieve the problem, he said. The B.C. sales tax on privately sold vehicles is called the “Tax on Designated Property,” and it applies to aircraft and boats as well as cars and trucks. editor@peninsulanewsreview.com

Fairway Market gives back to families in need Thanks to the support of customers, suppliers and staff, Fairway Market presented a cheque last Friday to the David Foster Foundation for $86,817. The cheque represents the culmination of the local grocery’s successful three-week fundraising campaign for the foundation, which provides financial support to Canadian families with children in need of life-saving organ transplants. “It all goes to a great cause,” said Fairway Market vice-president Robert Jay. “Fairway is always involved in the

community and wants to give back. Families are a good fit for us as we see generations coming to our stores.” Mel Cooper, David Foster Foundation’s honourary director and special advisor, said the fact Fairway is nearing its 50th anniversary in Victoria is timely. “It shows the importance of local support. This is where we began as the David Foster Foundation 25 years ago (and) now, as a national foundation, our need for support is greater than ever before.”

B.C. Transit rolls out Transit TV New initiative is about making ‘connections’ Erin McCracken News staff

B.C. Transit television is just a mouse click away. The bus company recently rolled out its inaugural broadcast series, known as Transit TV, on its website. New initiatives, employee profiles and other transit news will be the focus of stories filmed, edited and told by Victoriabased B.C. Transit spokesperson, Meribeth Burton, who worked for almost 24 years as a television journalist. “For me it’s about complete openness and great communication,” said Burton,

who took on the agency’s spokesperson role earlier this year. “I think Transit TV is just one small component.” Though the concept was not developed in response to an independent review of B.C. Transit that the province ordered, after several mayors complained about issues such as faulty communications, Burton said Transit TV will bolster communications. She is using an iPad to tape interviews with B.C. Transit employees and editing them into short segments. Burton will also appear on camera. “Once I feel like I’ve got his or her voice, and I’m reflecting it, I try to add a little Meribeth to it,” she said. She felt it only natural to bring her broadcast skills to her new communications career.

“I do people-style communications, because I like people. I’m a storyteller and my colleagues think it’s wonderful, because I think everything they tell me is a story. “I probably hear three great story ideas a day.” In addition to viewing online videos and podcasts, visitors to the site can also click links that take them to mainstream media stories featuring B.C. Transit, the bus company’s live Twitter feed and Facebook page, among other features. “I think the more stories, the more points of view, the better our ridership will understand some of the issues,” Burton said.

The federal government is finally moving to modernize its alcohol transportation rules, amending a 1928 law that prevents people from buying wine across provincial borders. The House of Commons unanimously supported a private members’ bill from Okanagan-Coquihalla MP Dan Albas that provides for a personal exemption from a law

created during the Prohibition era to stop smuggling and tax evasion. The wine industry and B.C. politicians have argued that individuals should be able to buy or order a case of wine they enjoyed while on vacation. The bill still has to pass the Senate. Once the federal law is changed, provinces would need to establish a personal exemption to allow personal purchase and shipment of alcoholic beverages across provincial borders.

into the province for personal use. B.C. residents can now bring back up to one standard case of wine (nine litres), four bottles of spirits (three litres) and a combined total of six dozen beer, cider and coolers (25.6 litres) from each trip to another province, without paying B.C. tax on it. Those limits are similar to those permitted by Ontario, Nova Scotia and Yukon and are among the highest in Canada, said Rich Coleman, minister responsible for B.C. liquor and gambling policy. He added that the federal change will particularly help B.C. and Ontario, which have

well-developed wine industries. Canada’s archaic wine laws have long been a target of industry and politicians. Premier Christy Clark, former premier Gordon Campbell and B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix have all campaigned for the federal change. In May 2011, broadcaster Terry David Mulligan took up the cause. He notified police and liquor control officials before carrying a case each of B.C. and Ontario wine in the trunk of his car from Penticton into Alberta, hoping to be charged under the 1928 law. editor@peninsulanewsreview.com
