Foresters weigh in on timber report Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Tolko’s woodlands manager in Williams Lake says the timber supply report submitted by the legislative special committee last week is a start. “I look forward to seeing where we go from here and how the government and communities will move forward with these recommendations,” Tom Hoffman says. “From a forest health and community sustainability stance, the committee’s work was extremely important.” Hoffman insists there will be a contraction in the industry. “It’s important that we don’t exacerbate that, but that we plan in an organized, structured fashion and wherever possible mitigate those impacts,” he says. The recommendations captured much of what Hoffman had expressed in his presentation to the committee during the hearings in 100 Mile House. “I expressed that one size does

not fit all, that there are different issues and different opportunities in different regions within the province with regards to the mid-term timber supply.” He says he is pleased the report recommends the resurrection of local management committees. When it comes to operating in marginally economic stands, he says that’s something already taking place in the Cariboo. “That’s not the same in other jurisdictions, but in the Cariboo we are already doing that. We need to ensure that we do access and harvest the dead pine stands now to preserve the mid-term timber supply, not to be forced into the green stands that contribute to the midterm but to focus more right now in the Cariboo.” There is a “whole bunch” of dead pine out there that needs to be addressed both from an economic and a forest health perspective, he adds. “We need to get the land base back, growing young revitalized forests and the recommendations

talk about that; however, this a report that’s written for the province and we really need to drive down to what is possible, what is important, and what are the opportunities locally.” Dave Lehane, West Fraser Timber’s vice president for the company’s Woodlands division, prefaced his reaction stating the beetle epidemic in Williams Lake is not new. “The first step was to salvage as much as possible of beetle-killed timber for as long as possible. The companies in Williams Lake have done a very good job of that. Those companies, Tolko and ourselves, are manufacturing logs that have been dead up to 10 years, “ Lehane says. The report is encouraging because it highlights that options exist. Each timber-supply area or community will have different solutions, he suggests. “From our view we’re eager to work with government and folks like the Beetle Action Coalition to try and develop those options.” It is important, he adds, that what-

ever options are considered high environmental standards and globally recognized forest management practices are maintained. “That has to be the underpinning of any review of options,” Lehane emphasizes. In his assessment of the report, registered professional forester Bill Bourgeois from Healthy ForestsHealthy Communities notes the recommendations raise the profile of forest management, but do not push the envelope and are focused on short-term economic actions and include only a minor amount of long-term sustainability. Bourgeois outlines deficiencies in the recommendations including the lack of a timeline and the cost of implementation. “The committee should make it clear whether the expectation is for government to provide funding and resourcing, if the the overall timber supply objective is to be achieved.

“Without additional resources, the tendency will be for government to pay lip service to the recommendations and say they are advancing forest management and community adaptation,” he notes. Bourgeois also supports the committee’s recommendation to re-establish land-use implementation committees and says the recognition of the committee of the importance of more involvement by communities in forest management is encouraging. He is, however, concerned the government will consider the report as a blueprint, along with the Roundtable on Forestry report to revitalize forestry. “This would be totally incorrect as key issues have not been addressed. A comprehensive strategic action plan is being prepared by the Healthy ForestsHealthy Communities initiative that will pro-

vide recommendations on all the identified priority issues of communities and forest management experts,” he adds. In a press release Independent MLA Cariboo North Bob Simpson says the reports confirms there will be a dramatic timber reduction soon. “Up to this point the government’s mountain pine beetle strategy has been to log as much as possible. This report essentially recommends continuing on that path in order to support the status quo. What we need instead is a bold, long-term provincial forest strategy that takes into account climate change and a changing economy. Unfortunately, you won’t find it in this report.” Simpson lists five points about the report that require attention: • Reforestation programs must be directed at growing healthy forests that will be adaptable to climate change. “I am pleased to see the committee high-

lighted silviculture as an area that needs more attention, but the focus needs to be on managing for healthy, resilient forest ecosystems, rather than simply growing more timber.” • A thorough review of the Beetle Action Coalitions (BACs) is necessary. “Before there is any more investment in these BACs, they need to be completely audited for effectiveness and restructured.” • The government should act on the recommendations of the Future Forest Ecosystems Scientific Council. The FFESC report recommends looking at all aspects of forestry and land-use planning through the lens of climate change. • Their recommendations must be implemented immediately, including promoting resilient forests and developing hardwood management strategies. “Minister Thomson has said that utilizing bio-energy and biomass will be an impor-

tant part of mitigating the upcoming economic impacts. What we really need is for the minister or someone in cabinet or even in the Opposition to lead and be a champion for an aggressive bio-economy strategy,” Simpson says. “The government has several reports sitting in front of them outlining progressive strategies, but they haven’t acted on them.” • Finally Simpson advocates not to rebuild the Babine Forest Products mill. “From everything I’ve seen and heard, that mill cannot be rebuilt without sacrificing forest health and putting other communities at risk.” The report and background documents indicate that half of the fibre that Hampton needs to rebuild is not currently available and must be sourced from marginal volume stands, old-growth management areas, and areas set aside for visual quality objectives, Simpson adds.

Seven new wildfires started over weekend Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Seven new small fires required fire crew response in the Cariboo over the weekend. “These ones are mostly concentrated west of Alexis Creek and the northwest portion of our region,” Cariboo Fire Centre information officer Jenny Fremlin said Monday. “Thanks to fast initial attacks by crews and aircraft all of these new fires have remained small, with the largest being one hectare in size. Three of the new fires have been fully extinguished and crews will continue suppression efforts on remaining fires today.” Lightning storms occurred in the areas affected and it is suspected that all but one of the new fires were sparked by lightning. Most of the fires are in remote areas. In anticipation of new fire starts because of forecasted hotter weather and the chance of thunder storms, 21 firefighters and one agency representative arrived at the Williams Lake airport from Yukon at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. “Other resources are being brought in for any new starts we might have and to provide rest for crews that are in need of it at this time,” Fremlin said, adding three threeperson initial attack crews presently remain in the Cariboo region — all others have been deployed to areas with higher fire activity. Friday afternoon the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations sent out a press release announcing a total of 79 firefighting personnel

would be coming to B.C. from Yukon, Saskatchewan and Ontario. Aside from Williams Lake, crews arrived in Kamloops and Surrey. Fremlin continues to urge people to remain vigilant with fire use and to be careful in the outdoors. “Human-caused fires can divert resources away from naturally occurring ones.” Campfires must be kept to half a metre by half a metre in size, and as of yet, a campfire ban has not been imposed in the Cariboo region at this time. “It’s been status quo since April 2,” Fremlin said. The Fire Danger Rating for the province is mostly “high,” with some areas of “moderate” and many patches of “extreme.” “While out enjoying the backcountry this weekend, make sure you respect local campfire bans,” says Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Steve Thomson. “In areas where campfires are allowed, never leave it unattended. Keep water and hand tools nearby in case you need to put the fire out quickly. Also make sure the fire is completely extinguished and cold to the touch before you leave the area.” Throughout the province, anyone found in violation of an open fire ban, including campfires, may be issued a ticket for up to $345. Report smoke or flames by calling 1-800663-5555 toll-free or *5555 on a cellphone. For the latest information on fire activity, conditions and prohibitions in B.C., visit www. bcwildfire.ca.

Mischief, thefts Saturday, Sunday Police responded to a number of calls for service over the weekend, including mischief, fires, and thefts. • At about 9 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 18, the Williams Lake RCMP received a complaint of a quad moved from a residence overnight on Mann Road. It was located in a neighbour’s driveway. There was no damage to the quad; however, it appears that suspects attempting to steal it had moved it to this location. • Police responded to a report of a break and enter at Lagerquist Road in McLeese Lake. Police attended and found the front door kicked in. Nothing was taken and no suspects were identified. • At 5:11 p.m. on Aug. 18 the Williams Lake Fire Department requested assistance at 83

Second Ave. South for a small fire in the parking lot. Police attended and found four individuals sitting in the parking lot with a burnt pizza box. They all claim that they found the box on fire and put it out. All parties left the area without incident and no damage was done. • At 1:42 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 19 the RCMP were dispatched to 845 11th Ave. North, the old Poplar Glade School site, for a report of a mischief in progress. Upon police arrival no one was in the area, but police could see the intermittent flash of lights as they used them to light the wall. Police observed a considerable amount of graffiti to the concrete wall on the old school site. Patrols didn’t reveal any results. The School District 27 office was notified of the mischief.

Anyone in the area who may have observed any possible suspects is asked to contact the Williams Lake RCMP or Crimestoppers. • At 4:45 a.m. on Sunday, police received a request for assistance from the Williams Lake Fire Department. A motor home had caught fire at Hen Ingram Lake Recreation Site. Police attended and confirmed that no one had been injured in the fire. The owners of the motor home were in the area on holidays from Washington. The fire started in the fridge and spread quickly, engulfing the entire unit. The occupants made it out of the vehicle with no injuries. The RV was a 2000 ITSCA RV. The motor home was completely destroyed. Forestry was advised as some nearby trees had been scorched and the ground was still

smoldering. • Shortly after 7 a.m. on Sunday, the Williams Lake RCMP received a complaint of a theft of a vehicle. A white Dodge pickup was missing from the owner’s yard. There was glass in the driveway and a neighbour stated he heard glass breaking at about 5 a.m. While investigating this theft, police located and recovered another stolen vehicle across the street. That truck, a 2001 white Dodge Ram 1500 pick-up, had been stolen overnight and recovered on Paxton Road. The truck had its passenger window broken and steering column destroyed. The theft is still under investigation. Both thefts are under investigation. • At 8:20 a.m., on Aug. 19, the Williams Lake RCMP received a complaint of a possible break and enter at To-

tal Pet. Police attended and observed the wall to the left of the doors to be caved in one to two feet from a vehicle ramming it and a broken window. Police say it did not appear that the suspects actually entered the store. At 11:27 a.m., police responded to a report of a stolen vehicle. A 1994 Dodge Pick up was stolen from Richland Drive between 1 and 10:30 a.m. The truck had an aluminum boat on top and was later recovered behind the long house in the Stampede Grounds. It is believed to have been used in a break in at Total Pet Store in Williams Lake. The rear of the vehicle had damage consistent to hitting the wall at Total Pet. The aluminum boat was missing from the top of the vehicle. The theft is still under investigation.

Each runner received a certificate of appreciation from the city. what can happen,” he told the runners as they sat in front of the park stage, alongside huge thank-you cards listing dozens of supporters who helped them with their efforts. Unlike the children Forgacs had taken a plane, he said, adding the runners told him he’d have to run a few kilometres while he was visiting Williams Lake. Mayor Kerry Cook acknowledged the

youths and their parents. “You’ve planted seeds of inspiration, not only in these kids, but for the community as a whole,” Cook said. “There are so many positive stories coming out of Williams Lake because of your efforts. You are true ambassadors, unique and inspiring individuals.” Cariboo Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett reminded the runners when she met with them

on July 1 before they left Williams Lake to make the trek to Vancouver that she was proud of the $56,000 they’d raised at that point. “Look what you’ve got now,” she chimed. “You will be helping special kids with the money you’ve raised for the hospital, but I want to tell you that you are all special kids. You’re our future leaders and I encourage you never to give up.”

Cook and Forgacs presented every runner with a certificate of appreciation, personally congratulating them for their efforts, while city council members, community policing and city staff served up a free barbecue.

Cabinet wrap installation underway Schickworks Signs and Stitches has installed the first of 10 vinyl wraps for City utility cabinets. A Laureen Carruthers photo of an old Chevrolet truck is now installed at the Corner of 2nd and Oliver Street on the larger of the two utility cabinets. This utility cabinet is one of the more complicated cabinets to wrap, due to the dimensions and tricky box layout. In the coming weeks, the remaining nine wraps will be installed on cabinets around the city, weather permitting. On June 27th a Selection Committee, consisting of three City Council members and three Board members from the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society, went through the tough process of selecting ten photos out of 120. The ten photos will be printed on vinyl and wrapped around ten City-owned utility cabinets within Williams Lake this month. “It is a priority for the City of Williams Lake to take proactive measures to manage graffiti and beautifying our community,” says Mayor Kerry Cook. “Programs such as the Cabinet Wrap Initiative for City owned infrastructure is a great start, but we need to work in collaboration with the private sector and other levels of government to implement further successful results in other areas of our community.” The City hopes to continue this project as partnerships arise.

David Black proposes $13-billion refinery Tom Fletcher Black Press A Victoria businessman is heading up a proposal to build a $13billion oil refinery in Kitimat. David Black, chairman and owner of Black Press, announced Friday he wants to build a world scale oil refinery at Kitimat, B.C. Black told media in Vancouver he is submitting an environmental assessment application to build a “world scale” oil refinery on behalf of Kitimat Clean Ltd., a company owned by Black. The application to the B.C. government’s environmental assessment office is expected within a month. Meantime, a politician in Northern B.C. reacted with skepticism, calling Black’s refinery plan “ridiculous.” Black has local roots in Williams Lake — the Williams Lake Tribune (owned by Black Press)

is where David Black began his newspaper career. He bought it from his father Alan Black in 1975 and started building what is now Black Press. The proposed refinery would be big enough to process all the diluted bitumen carried by Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway pipeline. Black said he has had extensive discussions with Enbridge and other players in the Canadian oil industry, but none has so far offered to back the project. Black said he will use his own money to finance the proposal through the B.C. environmental assessment, which he expects to cost several million dollars. After that, he said investors would be needed to complete it, assuming both the refinery and the pipeline receive approval. “I see myself as a catalyst to make this happen,” said Black, who first proposed the idea to the province and the industry

www.wltribune.com A5

seven years ago when he was chairman of the B.C. Progress Board. Black is joined in the venture by Glenn McGinnis, a consulting engineer and former manager of the Ioco oil refinery in Port Moody. “We want it [the Kitimat refinery] to be the cleanest and greenest upgrading and refining site in the world,” he said. The refinery is expected to produce 240,000 barrels per day of diesel, 100,000 barrels per day of gasoline and 50,000 barrels per day of kerosene or aviation fuel, refined from heavy oil. Among those attending a packed news conference at a downtown Vancouver hotel was Art Sterritt, executive director of the Coastal First Nations, a group in the Kitimat area that has strongly opposed the pipeline proposal. Sterritt disputed Black’s assertion that a B.C. refinery “solves half of the problem” with the export

of oil by shipping refined gasoline, jet fuel and diesel in tankers instead of heavy crude. Those products have their own risks, he said. Black pointed out that without marine shipments of those fuels, the remote coastal communities Sterritt represents would not be able to function. The lighter fuel products are still an environmental hazard, but they dissipate much more quickly and do not persist for many years like spilled heavy crude, he said. Black said the refinery will mean nearly 6,000 construction jobs over a five-year period, 3,000 permanent jobs at the refinery and tax revenue for various levels of government. Kitimat Clean Ltd. proposes to build on 3,000 hectares 25 km north of Kitimat – Crown land zoned for industrial use. — With files from the Williams Lake Tribune

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about priorities, or is it?

Plan coming

f my understanding is correct (and someone will surely tell me if it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t) the dog park came about because some people wanted it. Coun. Laurie Walters French took up Connection the cause, an ad hoc Diana French committee found a spot for it, the city found money for it, and ta da, we have a dog park.Â Once upon a time when groups wanted something (ball park, whatever) they raised money first, then approached council, either directly or through advisory committees. Remember advisory committees? They were standing committees, composed of citizens from different walks of life appointed by council to consider issues like health, sustainability, downtown parking, etc.Â The members would discuss the pros and cons ofÂ proposals, then make recommendations to council.Â Â It could be a slow process, butÂ committee members generally reflected public opinion.Â The city now has a number of ad hoc committees but only three standing advisory committees:Â heritage (new), accessibility, and water.Â When councillors dumpedÂ the long-standing Advisory Planning Committee for lack of attendance, some of usÂ wonderedÂ if that was an excuse for council toÂ move forwardÂ fasterÂ by â&#x20AC;&#x153;streamliningâ&#x20AC;? the planning process,Â copying the senior governments.Â Â Â Â Â In its early days the Cook council put a lot of effort into getting public input into planning the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future. However, if I understandÂ Coun. Walters correctly,Â things deemed a priority then donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily take priority now. Smaller projects (i.e. dog park) will move the community forward and have been identified as being a good thing. It would seem all you need now to get something going is a councillor to champion your cause. I wonder which one of them willÂ move the community forward by seeing thatÂ city staff,Â not volunteers,Â scoop the bird poop from the Scout Island beach to make that facility a good thing for the community.

Support artists and 4-Hers The 2012 Art Walk continues this week, and if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had the opportunity to participate, get out and about in our community soon â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to miss this. Though you still have until Sept. 8 before this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s walk wraps up, it will take you a while to get to all of the participating businesses â&#x20AC;&#x201D; there are 45 of them â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and spend an appropriate amount of time taking a look at all of the various pieces of art, ranging from paintings and sculptures to carvings and photographs. This Art Walk not only supports local artists, but it also helps support local businesses, too, making it a well-rounded, beneficial, annual event in our city. And, as an extra incentive, by participating you will have a chance to win $300-, $200-, or $100-downtown Williams Lake gift certificates! And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget another important community event taking place this week: the 54th annual Williams Lake & District 4-H Show and Sale. It takes place at the stockyards on Cattle Drive and

finishes up on Aug. 22. The 4-H program aims to provide leadership, knowledge, citizenship, and personal development skills through achieving projects set out by the program. 4-H includes livestock projects such as beef, sheep, swine, and poultry; non-livestock projects such as horse and dog; and non-animal projects, such as clothing, crafts, gardening, small engines, and photography, to name a few. The annual show and sale is what all 4-Hers look forward to every year, as they get to show off the projects they have worked diligently on and to learn how the agri-business world works, as they try to sell some of their projects to interested buyers. To see a full schedule of events, pick up a copy of our 4-H supplement, presented by the Tribune and 100 Mile Free Press at our office on First Avenue. The 2012 Art Walk and Sale programs can also be picked up at the Tribune and other participating merchants.

â&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure most readers are well aware that B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s central Interior has been hit very hard by the mountain pine beetle epidemic.Â Over the past 13 years, MLA the outMusings break has affected Donna Barnett about 18.1 million hectares of B.C. forests. This has created a great number of challenges for the forest industry, with many unanswered questions still lingering. On May 16, B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Legislative Assembly appointed the Special Committee on Timber Supply to examine and make recommendations to address the mid-term timber supply loss in the central interior. MLA John Rustad chaired the committee and I, too, had the pleasure of being a member, along with a number of MLAs. We toured 15 different stops in the central Interior, holding public hearings to get feedback on this critical issue from residents, First Nations, stakeholders and local government. Last week, Rustad released the committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report, Growing Fibre, Growing Value. The report outlines 22 recommendations to increase the supply and value of mid-term timber and to strengthen future forest management in B.C. The reportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations focus on engaging local communities and First Nations in future plans; finding ways to grow more fibre and maximize its value by utilizing marginally economic stands and/or investing in fertilization; and increasing the type and form of area-based tenures to support enhanced levels of forest stewardship and private sector forest investment. By the end of September, the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations will present an action plan to deal with those recommendations already not addressed by the ministry. This is a critical issue for residents and families in the Cariboo-Chilcotin. Forestry has become an integral part of life for us. In 2011, our forest sector employed 53,000 people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a number thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expected to grow. With evolving forest practices and technological advances within the sector continuing to change the game, we know B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forests have a future as a vital part of our economy. With skill and educational requirements increasing for forestry workers, we also know there will be new well-paying career options for young British Columbians. It just takes a little bit of foresight, a little bit of planning, and a lot of listening to make sure we excel in forest management practices and keep B.C. forestry jobs for B.C. families. Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for the Cariboo-Chilcotin.

LETTERS ALWAYS WELCOME

I am responding to Valerie Thiessenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s letter in support of the new Williams Lake dog park. I am glad to see that a small group of individuals got together to work on establishing a dog park. Groups such as this play a key role in developing good projects in our community. I applaud the people on the Dog Park Committee for letting city council know that they want a dog park. However, the planning and implementation of such a project is critical to ensuring that the project is well used and enjoyed by the community.

Ms. Thiessen is right that there are various groups utilizing city parks and financial resources. This is precisely the reason that council, city staff and volunteers spend significant amounts of time developing community plans and park use plans. The Boitanio dog park that has been built is outside of these plans and was not identified as a priority for the very limited parks and recreation funding that the city has available. Given the realities of our cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budgets, is it not in our best interest to ensure that every dime spent on any project is backed by a well thought out plan? Coun. Laurie

Walters could not produce any research to back the dog park design that was built, and the design and location of the dog park was not even reviewed by our city planner. Were safety concerns considered in the design and location of the dog park, and if yes what has been put in place to mitigate these concerns? While it is admirable that the Dog Park Committee is fundraising to further develop the dog park, I find it unusual that the city put up the fencing in advance of seeing any fundraised money. I have a dog and enjoy seeing people and their dogs around town and in the parks of our

city, but I want to see my tax dollars used on well-planned projects. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still looking for an explanation from Coun. Walters, who has championed the dog park, as to why this project was deemed a priority despite three City of Williams Lake council reports suggesting otherwise, as well as, why it was built so quickly without thorough planning. Other taxpayers may also want to ask Coun. Walters this same question considering that she has stated that she is already thinking about developing another dog park. David Reedman Williams Lake

Appalling how Barnett blindly agrees Editor: Good day, Mrs. Donna Barnett: Recently I was listening to Cariboo Radio and heard your comments concerning the privatization/sale of the Liquor Distribution warehouses. I was totally dismayed that you would come out and say you have not seen the documents but â&#x20AC;&#x153;trustâ&#x20AC;? that cabinet is doing it in the best in-

terests of British Columbians. As a taxpayer, I will let the history of this Liberal government speak for itself and do not â&#x20AC;&#x153;trustâ&#x20AC;? a thing it says or does. HST, B.C. Rail, Basi/Virk to the tune of $6 million of our tax dollars and the list goes on. I find it appalling that our local Liberal representative can stand by and blindly and silently agree to ev-

erything the government says and does. Does the word puppet mean anything to you? For you to come out and say you agree with the Liquor Distribution sale and not care enough to know that facts tells me you are just putting in time and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care, or the whole process is another very questionable and secret deal put together by this government. Why

can it/you not show us some kind of business plan so we can judge for ourselves if this is in the taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best interest? There are way too many secret deals going on with this government at the expense of us taxpayers and I, for one, am very tired of it. A very concerned taxpayer, Richard Broomfield Williams Lake

How would New Prosperity generate 71K jobs? Editor: In an Aug. 14 advertisement, Taseko Mines stated that the New Prosperity project will generate 71,000 jobs. This number is so large that it cries out for either clarification or retraction. For example, if we assume that a city has one-third as many full-time jobs as its population, this implies that New Prosperity would provide the basis for more

economic activity than the cities of Prince George and Kamloops combined. Their combined population is 163,000, and 163,000 divided by three would equal an estimated 54,000 full-time jobs. Tasekoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aug. 14 ad says there would be more than 1,000 workers during the construction phase, and its August 2011 New Prosperity project description (available on its website) says that there would be 550 permanent jobs. If you add

Letters must include name, phone number, and hometown in order to be considered. Those without are filed here

1,000 jobs for three years and 550 jobs for another 17 years you get 12,350 person years of direct employment and 37,050 person years of indirect employment, assuming three indirect jobs for every direct job. The sum of these two numbers is 49,400 total person years of employment. Based on my educated guesses, it seems to me that when Taseko Mines says it will generate 71,000 jobs, it is being quite misleading. Tasekoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own project description

says that New Prosperity would actually create 550 â&#x20AC;&#x153;permanentâ&#x20AC;? direct jobs that would last about 20 years, after which we would be left with an environmental liability that would last for thousands of years. Â Dear Taseko Mines, could you please clarify your claim that New Prosperity would generate 71,000 jobs? Â Pat Teti Williams Lake

sports Registration underway for female hockey camp Registration is underway for a BC Hockey U14 female identification camp in Williams Lake coming up this September at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. The camp, part of the BC Hockey Female High Performance Program, is held in four districts throughout the province. Williams Lake’s district camp, North Central, runs Sept. 8-9. The cost of the camp is $150. Players from anywhere north of 100 Mile House are eligible to attend. The purpose of the program is to introduce eligible athletes to high performance hockey focusing on both on- and off-ice aspects of the game. The camp also helps prepare players for the challenges should they

advance to U16 and U18 levels. Kelly Call, female co-ordinator with the Williams Lake Minor Hockey Association, said the camp will be a good opportunity to get evaluated by some top-notch coaches. “It’s an opportunity to be evaluated to see where you are with other girls in the north,” Call said. “There is no team being formed, there are no cuts. It’s just more of a chance for the girls from the north to all get together to start the process of the high performance program.” Players will be exposed to sport science principles in the areas of nutrition, mental training and physical preparation. “At the completion on Sunday the girls

will get a report card on things they were strong at and things

they need to improve at,” Call said. Players born in

1999, 2000 and 2001 are eligible to attend the camp.

Rees excited for Games Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Former Williams Lake resident Tim Rees hopes to bring home a medal for Canada when he competes in judo at the London 2012 Paralympic Games. Rees, 31, who grew up in Williams Lake and whose parents, Kathy and Walter, still live in the community, will arrive in London this Friday, Aug. 24 to prepare for the competition, which takes place Sept. 1. “There’s not much time left now,” Rees said with a chuckle. “I’m feeling pretty good. I’ve been working pretty hard doing a lot of judo.” Rees will be competing in the under-100 kilogram weight class as one of 12 of the best visuallyimpaired judo players in his weight class in the world.

He said knowing some of the Canadians who competed at the London Olympics in judo helped set the stage for what he hopes to achieve. “It was exciting [the Olympics] but it makes you nervous to see the venue where it’s taking place,” he said. “I know some of the guys who were fighting in the Olympics and it was inspiring.” When he arrives in London Friday he and fellow Canadian teammates will be put through an orientation before getting down to some light daily training leading up to the event. Rees’s event starts at 11 a.m. Sept. 1 and wraps up around 5 p.m. with the bronze- and gold-medal matches. Judo features an elimination-style format. Rees said winning his first match is key to advancing in the tourna-

ment. “Losing the first match is a pretty sure way to get knocked out of the tournament,” he said. “If you lose that the only way you can get back in the tournament is if the person who beats you makes it to the final. Then you have an opportunity to fight for bronze if you win all your next matches.” He said the competition should be tightly contested but thinks he’s capable of getting on the podium. “I’ll have to have a really good day to do that because the top four or five guys in the division are very, very tough,” he said. “But I think it’s realistic [to medal]. All the guys in the top are capable of winning. I don’t want to sound overconfident but I think if I get in there and have a good day then I can contend

Victoria-based artist Jenn Robins was in Williams Lake giving a print-making workshop to members of the Cariboo Arts Society and two out-of-town guests. Here Robins talks about colours and ways of achieving different hues and textures Thursday morning at the Central Cariboo Arts & Cultural Centre.

Printmaking a revived tradition Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer When it comes to printmaking there are an infinite number of things a person can do says artist and freelance instructor Jenn Robins. The Victoria-based artist eagerly shares her knowledge during a week-long workshop held in Williams Lake. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The print world is expanding so much now and it seems as if thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost a bit of a revival happening. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still very traditional techniques, with ways and rules that have to be honoured, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also people wanting to stretch the boundaries.â&#x20AC;? Robins makes prints on metal and embossing on metal too. She also does waterless lithography â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a technique created by Nik Seminoff from Saskatoon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a Canadian invention. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always ways in which we keep stretching what we do with process and materials.â&#x20AC;? Seminoff was involved in making the photo lithography plate originally, which Japan purchased, and then went into the process of waterless lithography. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In each case, what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to do, is get rid of all the toxins in our repertoire. That man is now in his 80s and often I speak with him. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never met him, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always so gracious. You find that in the print making community. People are really willing to share their stuff.â&#x20AC;? Originally a music teacher, with a university degree that also encom-

Examples of pieces workshop participants had created by Thursday morning during a week-long print-making workshop held at the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Centre. passed courses in English, history and geography, a health incident changed Robinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; life and resulted in her return to university, at Okanagan University College. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d try two dimensional art. My grandmother was a wonderful artist, she really was. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really know what would happen when I enrolled, but I met Mary McCullough. She was my instructor for one course, and I asked if I could come and work in her print studio.â&#x20AC;? McCullough agreed and told Robins by the end of her stint she would know what a print was so when she

went into a gallery sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d know what something was. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was in the class for about five weeks and I never left. I do other things as well. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll paint with water colours or every so often go into another medium usually to teach me something more about colour, and then go back into the printmaking again. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been doing for 25 years. I adore it. You never get bored,â&#x20AC;? she says. Robins kicked the course off with a lecture at Thompson Rivers University Williams Lake campus Aug. 10 and since then 11 women,

including one from Prince George and one from Alexandria, have been busy at the Central Cariboo Arts & Cultural Society centre. As she shows off some of the prints people have made in the workshop, Robins points out different types of prints theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tackled, such as embossed collagraphs and four-day photo etching, which is very complex and detailed, she adds. Picking up once piece she explains itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s completely done by hand. Another piece was taken home and colour was added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything varies on how you actually cook the plate,â&#x20AC;? suggests. As the participants mill around viewing each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work, Robins looks around and describes them as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;wonderfulâ&#x20AC;? group. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the third time sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been in Williams Lake to give a workshop and each time the Cariboo Arts Society has had more equipment in place, including a printmaker purchased five years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is lovely about the group is that once it was decided the workshop was going to take place, there was a tremendous amount of work put in to prepare. One personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband made the light box, another did the electric for the light box. A few of them worked as a team to make it happen.â&#x20AC;? Funding for the workshop came from the City of Williams Lake and the Cariboo Regional District through the Central Cariboo Arts & Cultural Society.

4-H Show and Sale The 54th annual Williams Lake & District 4-H Show and Sale started on Friday. It runs until Wednesday, Aug. 22 at the Williams Lake Stockyards. The 4-H supplement, presented by the Williams Lake Tribune and 100 Mile Free Press, details a schedule of events and some of the projects 4-H kids have been working on.

Saturday, Aug. 25 to Sunday, Aug. 26 Fish Lake gathering Tsilhqotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;in chiefs and youths are preparing to host a gathering at Fish Lake Aug. 25 to 26. It will be an opportunity to meet chiefs, elders and community members, try horse-back riding, fishing, great food and witness a talent show, music, tournaments and more. The gathering will provide the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supporters with the chance to learn more about Tsilhqotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;in culture and territory and why protection of other water bodies in the area such as Nabas (Little Fish Lake), nearby Yanah Biny and the Dasiqox (Taseko River) are vital to First Nations communities. Fish Lake is located three hours southwest of Williams Lake. For more information contact TNG mining, oil and gas manager J.P. Laplante at 250-267-3759 or organizing youth at 250-394-7020.

David Alan Cail, known as Al

David Alan Cail and would have all the details memorized. Al never ceased to amaze me with his memory for details. Karen became his best friend and companion for the past five years of his life. They travelled in the back roads of B.C.,

had picnics in the middle of winter and enjoyed life to the fullest. Al went on one final moose hunt with his youngest brother Stan in October 2011. They came back with two moose but Al was in pain. He fought a brave

battle with cancer; however, he was unable to win. He passed away quietly with his daughter-inlawAngela by his side. There was no service held for Al in accordance to his wishes. Al leaves to mourn his companion Karen, his son Steve (Angela), their daughters Ashley and Megan, his daughter Kim (Kevin) and his grandson Boden, his grandchildren from Jim’s family, Collin and Julie, brothers Richard (Joy) and family, brother Stan (Kathy) and family as well as numerous friends from all parts of B.C. Al was never shy about striking up a conversation with anyone, anywhere, so he made many friends wherever he went. Our heartfelt thanks go to friends and family for their huge support — Dr. Scrooby for his kindness and compassion throughout Al’s illness, Rhoda and Chris for their care and understanding, Dick Poole and Steve Cail for building a ramp to make it possible for Al to get outside, home care nursing, home support, the Red Cross and Hospice — you all made it possible for me to care

Liz Twan’s work

— Jan. 19, 1940 – June 22, 2012 — Alan, the eldest of three sons, was born to Jim and Hazel Cail in Mission City, B.C. He was raised and schooled in Mission where he graduated from Mission Jr/Sr High School in 1958. In 1961 Al married Charlotte Kimola and they had a family of two sons, Jim and Steve, and a daughter, Kim. They moved north to find work, as their family grew. Al worked at many different jobs, but his love for the outdoors led him to the forestry industry as his main choice of employment. In March 1981, Al was in a horrific logging accident, which nearly ended his life. A huge tree crushed him but through pure guts and determination he overcame the odds and managed to survive. He used the clutch pedal of his pickup truck to exercise his leg to regain his strength. His leg had been so badly crushed that he was told it would need to be amputated. Throughout the years, Al and his family lived in many areas of B.C. but the Cariboo was always his favourite. He especially loved the Farwell Canyon area. He and his family spent many hours on trail bikes, camping, hunting and fishing. Family was very important to Al. He was extremely proud of his children and grandchildren. Alan was pre-deceased by his son Jim and his wife of 42 years, Charlotte. Al developed a love for anything with wheels and a motor. He raced dragsters, did hill climbs, and owned several motorbikes, cars, trucks, quads and trail bikes. He could be out in the woods and not hear the birds singing but he could hear a truck coming from miles away before anyone else would hear it. He also had a fantastic memory for directions, names, local history and stories. He seldom packed a map but would “study” a map before leaving on a trip

for Al at home as long as was possible. Thank you to the paramedics and fire chief for their compassion on Al’s final trip to the hospital. A huge thank you goes to Donna for being there for me. Last but not least; thank you to the staff at Deni House for making Al’s final days as comfortable as possible. Without all of you, I could not have provided the care for him that I did. A special thank you to Sheena and her staff at Little Moccasins Learning Centre. Your moral support and kindness has meant so much to me. — Karen Fairclough and the Cail family.

Painter finds inspiration in love for horses Erin Hitchcock Tribune Staff Writer Randi Evans paints her passion and what she loves — horses. Nine of her paintings, depicting mostly horses but also other ranch themes, are up at city hall for viewing during this year’s Art Walk. This year is Randi’s first time in the Art Walk. She works out of her studio at her log house where she lives with her husband Sam on 14 acres in Springhouse. When she is not painting she is likely out with her horses, who provide her with loving inspiration, particularly Legacy, a 4.5-year quarterhorsepalomino. “He’s my inspiration in a lot of things,” says Randi, who grew up in the Fraser Valley. Her love of painting and of horses developed from a very early age, so for Randi, the two have always been a big part of her life.

“I can’t remember when I didn’t love horses and when I didn’t love art, so the two were just a natural marry up.” She says most of the horses shown in her artwork are hers. For example, Randi’s colt Legacy, a foundation quarter-horse palomino, is featured in one of the paintings at city hall. “He’s my baby,” she says. “He’s a third generation. His grandfather’s name was Colonel and when I found this foal, his name was Colonel’s Legacy — that was my old horse. He (Legacy) is just like him. He is my inspiration in a lot of things. “I am riding him like crazy now and just loving him. I started him this year, so I got him four and half years ago.” She also has an older, feral mare from Grand Cache. “She really was a wild horse and she is very special to me, but she is getting older now, and I have another quarter

horses called Keeper and a donkey,” she says. As a teenager, Randi was mentored by the late Rein Leigh before going on to study fine arts under European artists Merco and Jeannine Jacabo at the University of the Fraser Valley. There, she majored in fine arts, studying life drawing, painting in all medias, etching, graphics, and sculpture. Though she paints mostly horses these days, she can work in other medias and subjects, she notes. “It’s just that I think it makes your work stronger if you do what your heart says. It’s just such a flow for me because I love it so much.” When she met her husband Sam, he had a hunting cabin in Meldrum Creek on the old Moon Ranch. “I was the first girl that got to go to that hunting cabin,” Randi says. “He brought me and my horse, and that made him pretty big in my eyes.”

They then moved to Alberta, where she continued to pursue art while also being involved in rodeo, including the Calgary Stampede and Calgary Log Show, as well as helping out wellknown rodeo family — the Daines. Randi and Sam returned to the Cariboo two years ago. Randi says their Springhouse home suits her passions. “I don’t know why they built it this way, but it worked for me,” she says, explaining the home has a large dining room, big living room, and another large room, which serves as a perfect studio. Randi’s artwork can be viewed at city hall from Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
