KITIMAT - Judy McHale is warning the public about a problem bear after her dog was killed June 6. McHale and a friend were horseback riding in the Cablecar area with her eight-year-old lab when they encountered a black bear who then followed them. McHale and her friend trotted away faster on their horses and the dog followed behind. “He chased us for 200-to-300 yards down that trail at a full gallop.� She then heard a yelp and a scream and that was the last she heard anything from her dog. McHale’s husband went looking for the dog the following morning but no remains were found. “I asked them to let me know whether they trap the bear or not. I can’t go in the area until the bear is out of there.� The Conservation Officer Service (COS, which did set a trap for the bear, issued a release in the days following this incident, saying that the incident could have been avoided. “The interview with the complainant revealed that their reaction might have triggered a predator-prey response by the bear. The bear pursued the horses and dog when they started to run away,� the statement, released by conservation officer Dale Kluivers, said. “Had the women taken the necessary precautions ... the bear might have simply turned and disappeared,� the release continued. COS did three searches for the dog and bear but officers could find neither. They did identify that there were several bears in the area, but that meant the change of catching an innocent bear was high so they decided to remove their trap last Friday, June 8. The COS advised the public that when encountering a bear to remain calm, make yourself seem as big as possible, stay together in a group, and face the bear while walking away slowly. “Never look a bear straight in the eyes as the bear can interpret this as a sign of aggression,� the COS said. “Of course in this incident the individuals involved were on horseback and could not have backed away easily.� When travelling with a dog, it is advised to keep your pet on a leash, as incidents in the past have involved off-leash pets being chased by bears straight to their owners.

Second phase of Rupert port should constructed and finished by 2015 By Shaun Thomas THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT Prince Rupert Port Authority president and CEO Don Krusel says he expects Phase 2 expansion to bring additional capacity to Fairview Terminal “before 2015”. Krusel made the comments while addressing the BC Chamber of Commerce Transportation Summit 2012 earlier this week, and came on the heels of a discussion about the road/rail/utility corridor being developed at Ridley Island. “Integrated with this development, Phase 2 expansion of Fairview Container Terminal is expected to bring an additional 500,000 TEUs of container capacity online before 2015,” Kru-
sel told those gathered in Vancouver on June 5. Both the phase 2 expansion and the road/ rail/utility corridor are part of the Prince Rupert Port Authority’s 20/20 Gateway Development Plan, which Krusel said would further vault Prince Rupert onto the national and international shipping stage. “The full build-out and realization of this plan would make Prince Rupert the second largest port in the country. It would expand the Port’s annual throughput capacity to well over a 100 million tonnes to support Canadian trade. It represents over $10 billion in capital expansion. It would also provide in excess of 4,000 new, permanent, fulltime jobs. Those are exciting prospects and de-

our natural resources is increasing year over year Huge private-sector investments are planned and well underway in Western Canada’s natural resources, including potash, coal, minerals, forest products, and biofuels—to name just a few. These investments, and the thousands of new jobs associated with them, are depending on the availability of new West Coast export capacity,” said Krusel. “Although the U.S.
will always be a critical market for Canada, the spotlight now is clearly on China and the emerging Asian markets, which are now driving global economic growth.” The scale of emerging cargo traffic with Asian markets is evident by the number of trainings containing doubledecker cars now being seen along the CN route. That number is growing as the Prince Rupert becomes busier still.

NEW AIYANSH – A joint operation involving Nisga’a Fisheries & Wildlife Enforcement, BC Conservation Service and the RCMP June 9-10 had officers patrolling the backcountry, highways and villages of the Nass Valley. Sgt. Donovan Tait of the RCMP detachment in New Aiyansh said officers seized drugs and paraphernalia from a vehicle and issued a 24 driving prohibition to an impaired driver on the Cranberry Connector. One motorist who was being investigated for a Wildlife Act offence on Highway #113 was served with a 4 month driving prohibition, he added. “Officers take this as an opportunity to gather information on activities occurring in the backcountry, identify who is spending time out there and with whom, he said. More patrols are planned as the summer progresses in the area.

Industrial park businesses hit with a major tax increase By Alan S. Hale THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - Despite efforts by the city to soften the blow, many owners of light-industry businesses in the Prince Rupert industrial park along Kaien say they are feeling the pinch now that their property tax bills have arrived. Trina Stegavig from Progressive Steele says that her business’ property tax bill is 54 per cent higher than it was last year, and says its a common story for many of the other business in the industrial park. “With my business here in the industrial park, I can’t be having my tax rate doubled every year, or I won’t be in business,” says Stegavig.
“Business certainly hasn’t doubled, not a chance.” The reason why so many businesses property taxes have increased by such a large amount in one year is because of this year’s property assessments in the industrial park. Early this year, BC Assessment, sent out letters to the same business owners informing some of them that their properties were worth almost double what they were last year. One land owner at the time provided a copy of their letter from BC Assessment which says that assessed value of their property will be going up from $106,500 in 2011 to $250,600. With a price jump like that, you would
think that means properties in the industrial park are in high demand, but they’re not. Before January – when the owners got their assessments – there had been only three sales in the park since 2008, and only one sale in 2011. BC Assessment explained that the decision to raise the property values so high was, that with industrial property prices across north on the rise, the properties in the industrial park had become undervalued for several years. The jump in values in just the industrial park was simply bringing them back up to par with similar properties in the region. The jump in price of lightindustrial properties in one area while not in others is ensuring that
It’s
Grizzly Bear Season
some businesses are still getting much larger tax bills this year. The city tries to adjust its property tax rates so that people don’t have to pay more taxes simply because market pushed the price of the property up. They do this by taking the average increase of different kinds of properties and adjust their tax rate so that most people won’t see a difference on their tax bill even though it was assessed higher than last year. The problem is that the p[rice increases in the industrial park were so high, while many other light-industry properties didn’t get any price increase at all. So the average price increase this year was about 21 percent, any business that
got an increase more than that has to pay more property taxes. When you consider that some businesses got increases of almost 100 per cent, its not hard to see they’re still paying more even though their tax rate is lower than last year –about $6 less per $1000 of assessed value. The only way to fix that would be lower taxes below the average price change, which would be problematic for the cashstrapped City. “Then we wouldn’t get as much taxes as we would have the previous year,” explains the City’s chief financial officer, Dan Rodin. When the assessments letters went out a number of business owners decided to band together to form the Prince
Rupert Taxpayers’ Federation, and even discussed getting a lawyer with experience in property assessments to fight the increases. None of these plans came together in time
for this year’s budget, but they are planning to continue working on it this year because they’re worried that prices in the industrial park will continue to climb.

TERRACE - Social workers gathered at the George Little Park band shell June 11 to sign letters to Prime Minister Stephen Harper asking him not to cut the budgets of national aboriginal organizations. Those organizations are a key part of repairing the effects of residential schools, says Rob Hart, the president of the BC Association of Social Workers’ northwest branch and the organizer of the letter signings. “The Harper government has apologized for residential schools but they have not worked with aboriginal people to address the tremendous personal
and social damage created by them,” he said. Hart said it will take generations to deal with the effects of residential schools. “The Harper government is making this work far more difficult by cutting funding to the national aboriginal organizations that support local work,” he added. Hart said the cuts worsen an already large gap between health care, education and other spending on aboriginal children compared to spending on other Canadian children. “There isn’t the equity. It’s not adequate for schools and it’s not adequate for health care,” said Hart of spending on aboriginal children.

TERRACE - RCMP are investigating the June 12 death of a 31-year-old man in Thornhill after he was run over by a van. Police say they were called out at approximately 1:45 am to an incident in front of the Costa Lessa Motel. “A grey 2001 Chevrolet Venture van driven by a 46- year- old man ran over a 31- year- old man,” police said in a releated. “The man died at the scene as a result of injuries he sustained,” the release continued. Conditions at the time were dark and wet and the pedestrian was lying in the middle of the access road in front of the motel, said police. “The Integrated Collision Analyst Reconstruction Services are assisting Terrace General Duty members with the investigation. The driver of the van was sober,” says Cst. Angela Rabut, media relations officer of the Terrace RCMP regarding the incident.

TransCanada tasked with pipeline to Kitimat By Cameron Orr THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - TransCanada has been selected by Shell Canada and its partners to develop a $4 billion natural gas pipeline to Kitimat for the LNG Canada project. The pipeline, called the Coastal Gaslink project, will run from near Dawson Creek and transport gas produced in the Montney, Horn River and Cordova basins. “Our team has the expertise to design, build and safely operate pipeline systems,” said TransCanada president Russ Girling in a statement. “We look forward to having open and meaningful discussions with Aboriginal communities and key stakeholder groups, including local residents, elected officials and the Government of British Columbia, where we will listen to feedback, build on the positive and seek to address any potential concerns.” TransCanada has approximately 24,000 km of pipelines in western Canada, which includes 240 km in Northeast B.C. The company said that they esti-

mate between 2,000 and 2,500 jobs for construction over a three year period. The initial capacity will be above 1.7 billion cubic feet of gas a day. The in-service date is currently expected by the end of the decade with construction starting in 2015, based on the company receiving all their approvals by early 2014. Haisla Chief Councillor Ellis Ross said that while no official referral relating to the project has come to the Haisla from the Crown yet, TransCanada has had an open line of communication with them. The Haisla do have questions relating to the project that they look forward to having addressed as the process proceeds. “The pipeline route is going to be a big deal for us. There’s a lot of different issues and questions we have to answer,” said Ross, notably relating to environmental issues, particularly as the scale of the project is so large. Following the TransCanada announcement, the company has committed to being available to local governments and the company will be meeting with the District of Kitimat in the near future.

Celebrates National Aboriginal Day
NATIONAL ABORGINAL DAY A SPECIAL DAY Proclaimed by the Governor General in 1996, National Aboriginal Day provides an opportunity to acknowledge the unique achievements of First Nations, MĂŠtis and Inuit in fields as diverse as agriculture, the environment, business and the arts. In cooperation with aboriginal organizations, the Government of Canada chose June 21st for National Aboriginal Day because it is also the summer solstice, the longest day of the year. For generations, many aboriginal
peoples have celebrated their culture and heritage on or near this day. The Canadian Constitution recognizes three groups of Aboriginal peoples: Indians (First Nations), Inuit and MĂŠtis. Although these groups share many similarities, they each have their own distinct heritage, language, cultural practices and spiritual beliefs. On June 21st or on other days depending upon local tradition, thousands of Canadians across the country will
celebrate National Aboriginal Day. This is a special day to celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding achievements of First Nations, Inuit and MĂŠtis peoples in Canada. A truly nationwide celebration, National Aboriginal Day is part of the “Celebrate Canada!â€? program, which also includes Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day (June 24), Canadian Multiculturalism Day (June 27) and Canada Day (July 1).

Thousands of jobs... Over 3,000 direct construction jobs will be created in British Columbia at the peak of construction. As well, 560 new long-term jobs will be generated in BC.
Millions of dollars for community projects... Over 30 years, more than $1.2 billion in tax revenue for BC can be used to strengthen public services. Enbridge will also provide $100 million to support communities near the pipeline.
World-class safety standards... Carefully planned and built to respect the terrain and wildlife, the pipeline will be monitored 24/7. To protect the waters and coastline of BC, marine facilities will adopt additional navigation aids, increase emergency response capabilities, and implement new land-based radar so that Canada’s Northwest Coast is safer for all marine traffic.
A stronger BC economy with new trade partners... There will be more opportunities and towns will prosper. It will open up global markets for our energy exports and increase Canada’s Gross Domestic Product by $270 billion.

DEASE LAKE - Join me in my 2012 mountain bike ride from Dease Lake to Telegraph Creek, leaving Dease Lake at 9 am June 29 and arriving in Telegraph Creek around 6 pm for a BBQ. The past two years this ride has produced over $20,000 to help many families from the north with added costs in medical travel. It is my goal this year to raise $30,000. The health system we have only provides a subsidy and when travelling from the north the burden of added cost is quickly accumulated. As the Tahltan Band does not receive funds from the federal government for added requests, we are reliant on fundraisers such as the bike ride to meet the community needs. The bike I use was locally made in BC by 78 Bike Co. and de-

Drag racing continues this weekend By Ed Evans THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - If you drive by the Terrace Regional Airport this weekend and see smoke rising, don’t worry and call the fire department. It’s not a plane fire, a forest fire, it’s not even a controlled burn. It’s the second of four drag races scheduled for the Terrace Regional Airport this summer. If you haven’t been able to catch any drag racing this year, this is the perfect opportunity. Unlike other forms of racing, the pits are open for you to walk around and check out, up close, the cars that are racing down the track. There are bleachers for you sit in to watch the 1/8 mile side by side racing. As you sit in the bleachers, the track announcer will keep you informed of whats happening on the track and there are big reader boards so you can see the reaction times, elapsed times and dial-in
ED EVANS / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
Prince Rupert’s Gord Hidber tests out the new ride at the Season opener Terrace Drags in May times of each car. There are vendors on the site so you can get a snack or even have lunch. Drag racing starts out daily at 10 a.m. with time trials and eliminations starting at one p.m. Saturday June 16 will be “King of the YXT” and “Gamblers”. Sunday June 17 will be class racing with the “Jr. Dragster”, “Sportsman”, “Pro” and “Super Pro” classes racing in the year long “Points series”. The The Skeena Val-
ley Cruisers Father’s Day Show & Shine will be running at Canadian Tire Sunday June 17, from 10 a.m. to three p.m., with registration starting at nine a.m. After the big show, the cars will be cruising to the drag race for another Show & Shine and to watch drag racing. So don’t miss out on the great racing and car shows this weekend, and ladies, take the husband or boyfriend out for a ride and bring him to the

School and the police combine for successful bicycle safety campaign By Staff Writer THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
GITWINKSIHLKW - The Lisims/ Nass Valley RCMP and Gitwinksihlkw Elementary School (GES) partnered up to promote bicycle and road safety with their students in celebration of Bike to Work Week the end of May. Division 2 students at GES created bike safety posters and winners of each grade were selected by members of the RCMP detachment. The RCMP detachment donated three brand new bicycle helmets for the winning students.
The winning students were: Grade 5 : Mary Angus Grade 4: Queenie Wesley Grade 3: Ruby Azak “All of the students all winners as far as we are concerned .... all the detachment’s officers assisted with the judging of the posters and they were all very good, “ said RCMP Sgt. Donovan Tait, the officer in charge of the Lisims/Nass Valley RCMP detachment in New Aiyansh. “The safety of our Nation’s youth is of our utmost priority. The time spent in the classroom and engaging these young people on bicycle and road safety is time well spent.”

FirstCanada can no longer sustain the cost of running a service between Kitimat and the Terrace Airport. While many people believed that the service was subsidized, it was not. With the rising cost of providing the service and the lack of ridership, FirstCanada had to make a business decision on what to do with the service. Therefore Saturday June 16 2012, will be the last service to the Airport as FirstCanada has decided to discontinue the Airport Shuttle Service between Kitimat and Terrace Airport. We would like to thank all our loyal customers for their patronage over all the past years.
