RCMP look for man
Proudly serving Williams Lake and the Cariboo-Chilcotin since 1930
VOL. 82. No. 74
Strike action Monica Lamb-Yorski photo
United Steelworkers Local 1-425 Union member Pearson Armstrong joined his wife, COPE 378 union member Heidi Armstrong on the picket line Tuesday morning at the ICBC Claim Centre in Williams Lake on Broadway Avenue North. COPE 378 members picketed 55 ICBC centres across the province for a one-day strike, while offices remained open because some employees were deemed essential. The union has been without a contract for more than two years. A leaflet distributed by the picketers says COPE 378’s research shows ICBC could easily reduce optional insurance policies by $35 and still give employees a cost-of-living increase.
The Langley RCMP are seeking the public’s assistance in locating a man believed to be living in the Cariboo. Mario Guy Martel — who is wanted on outstanding warrants for dangerous driving causing bodily harm and fail to stop at the scene of an accident — is believed to be living in the 100 Mile House/Williams Lake area and failed to attend his last court date. These warrants originate from an injury collision, which took place in Langley on Aug. 3, 2007 in the 21000 block of 77A Avenue. Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Martel is asked to call their local RCMP detachment or, to remain anonymous, Crimestoppers.

Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Taseko Mines Ltd. plans to submit its Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to the federal review panel by the end of the week, said Taseko’s vice president of corporate affairs Brian Battison. Battison, during a presentation to city council Sept. 18, said the EIS is presently being printed. “The EIS is a couple of thousand pages of science and engineering, which describes how New Prosperity will be built and particularly how the water issue will be managed,” Battison said, adding the company would spend $300 million more on this proposal to mitigate environmental impacts, including the preservation of Fish Lake, and address the concerns expressed by the previous federal assessment. The EIS also “helps alleviate concerns of First Nations and reduces impact on grizzly bears,” Battison said, adding the area is not prime or moderate grizzly bear habitat. “The only impact on bears is
thought to be the increase of traffic on roads out to the region and we have plans for mitigating that. The conclusion of the EIS is that there will be no adverse environmental effect from this project.” No changes have been made to several aspects of the mine proposal, he said. The location, method of mill processing, mill operations, ancillary facilities, transmission line, access road and concentrate rail load out facility have not changed. “That’s important because this environmental assessment is about what is new and what has changed and the impact that those changes may have on the previous findings of the Prosperity project.” Listing off the economical benefits of the project for B.C. and Canada, Battison suggested it will have a bigger economic impact than the entire B.C. fishery. “We believe New Prosperity will dramatically benefit First Nations. There’s a lot of stuff in the media contrary to that, but when you see this new design and understand what it does, you will see it dramatically benefits First Nations
communities.” Battison said Taseko continues to work with the Tsilhqot’in. He referenced the recent restoration work at the Puntzi Creek watershed, where Taseko funded the work, collaborating with the provincial government and Ervin Charleyboy, along with some young First Nations employees. He also highlighted exploration work at the New Prosperity site in the winter, and that the exploration work is being done by Xeni Gwet’in Enterprises. Taseko has an agreement with the Tsay Keh Dene for road construction for at its Aley Niobium Project, north of Mackenzie, B.C. “What’s interesting is the Tsay Keh Dene were instrumental with other First Nations, in stopping the Kemess Mine from happening, but in our case they’re working with us to see that hopefully this project can ultimately be a mine again,” Battison said, adding Taseko understands the value of working with First Nations and is trying to make the New Prosperity Mine work for everybody. If the panel accepts Taseko’s
EIS, then it will hold public hearings, and then submit a final report to the federal environment minister and cabinet. Battison said Taseko has an existing approval for the project from the provincial government. “We have an existing EA (environmental assessment) certificate. Because of the new design, which is essentially moving the tailings facility a couple of kilometres upstream from the lake, that existing approval requires an amendment. There needs to be an amendment process that the provincial government will embark upon to grant that amendment. The province needs to get its house in order and get ready with what we need to have in place,” Battison said. City council, following Battison’s presentation, passed a resolution supporting the New Prosperity mine development, provided that provincial and federal environmental standards are met and affected First Nations are adequately consulted.

Bear warnings could lead to fines Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer If bear complaints lead to the discovery that people are not taking responsibility for keeping bear attractants out of their property in the Cariboo region, the Conservation Officer Service may start issuing warnings that could lead to fines. The officers have a couple of options, says Sgt. Len Butler. The first is called a Dangerous Wildlife Protection Order (DWPO). If an officer goes to a residence to respond to a complaint about a bear or any other predator and there’s any type of attractant like garbage, fruit not picked up, and bird feeders, they will issue a DWPO. Residents will have a certain amount of time to remove the attractant.
If they do not follow the order, the officers will return and issue a $575 violation ticket. Bear complaints continue to flow into the conservation office, but as of Sunday evening officers have not had to put any more down. There’ve been a sow and four cubs seen on Richard and Hodgson roads, one on South Lakeside and a little one at Scout Island that don’t seem to be causing problems. “This is where we live. If a bear is not feeding on attractants, they are not a problem, but for the most part every call we get people are reporting the bears are into garbage and into fruit,” Butler says, adding problems grow when bears stick around and become more than habituated — they start claiming spots and be-
come more aggressive. Butler has been in Williams Lake since June, but says his coworker, Ken Owens, told him more bears were killed locally three years ago than there have been in 2012. “There have been some comments made that Ken never had to kill any bears, but that’s not true. He says the bears come in a threeyear cycle and three years ago they had a big influx of bears.” Bears are always going to be something the community will have to deal with, and Butler says not having the Bear Aware program in town baffles him. “Bear Aware can do some really good work on public education and in the schools. I don’t know why we don’t have it here — that’s a good question,” Butler
says, adding there’s a really good Bear Aware program in place in Bella Coola. “They will do the door-to-door. They will be persistent. We need that help.” At the end of the season, Butler is going to contact the city and the head of Bear Aware and the Cariboo Regional District to see if there’s interest in establishing a program locally. Aside from bear complaints, the conservation office is busy with hunting violation complaints and shot and left dead moose. “We’re really busy,” Butler says. Presently there are only two conservation officers working in the Williams Lake office; however, a third one will be arriving to fill one of the vacancies on Oct. 1.
Council supports mine Continued From Page A1 It also called on the province to ensure all necessary provincial approvals for the project are granted in a timely manner. “We’ve never been prodevelopment at all costs, but we’ve always been in support of a responsible project and looked at all the environmental standard issues to make sure that they’re met and we’ve always supported special relations with our First Nations neighbours as well, and that’s what we’re stating in this resolution,” Mayor Kerry Cook said, adding council is also suggesting the resolution be passed onto the Cariboo Regional District. Cook added that the resolution should also be presented at the Union of B.C. Municipalities

convention in Victoria next week. Chief Administrative Office Brian Carruthers confirmed council has a meeting at the UBCM with the premier, the Minister of Energy and Mines and the Minister of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations at the same time. Coun. Sue Zacharias recommended the resolution be passed onto 100 Mile House and Quesnel city councils as well. Coun. Ivan Bonnell said local MLAs and MPs should be advised of the city’s position as well. Tsilhqot’in National Government Chair and Anaham Chief Joe Alphonse is disappointed the city has passed the resolution without asking for input from the TNG. “At the end of the day
if they choose to endorse such a company, it’s entirely up to them, but I would hope that all the parties would be heard.” Charleyboy does not represent the TNG, Alphonse said, adding he resents Battison saying Taseko is working with the Tsilhqot’in. “Xeni Gwet’in Enter-
prises are there doing the exploration drilling because we want to ensure there’s minimum damage done to the area. The information that’s going to be gathered there, as far as we’re concerned, is going to be of more benefit and use to us in our opposition to the project,” Alphonse said.

School district plans public consultation meetings Gaeil Farrar Tribune Staff Writer There was only one person from the public attending the School District 27 board’s first meeting of the 2012/13 school year Tuesday evening. However, several directors commented that more people from the public will likely be in attendance for the special board meeting coming up this Tuesday, Sept. 25. In that meeting the board is slated to release its report on planning options proposed for the school district. Given falling student enrollment and ongoing financial difficulties, the board’s report is expected to include cost cutting and greater efficiency options. During Tuesday’s meeting the trustees voted to cancel all of their committee meetings until the public consultation process on the report has been completed. Committee meetings will only be called to deal with urgent or emergent issues. While times have not yet been finalized, consultation meetings to gather input from the public on proposals in the report have been scheduled for the Williams Lake Secondary School gymnasium on Oct. 2 and at the 100 Mile House Junior Secondary gymnasium on Oct. 4. Subsequent public meetings are scheduled

NEWS Ready to Roll
to be held at the Alexis Creek School on Oct. 16, at Peter Skene Ogden secondary in 100 Mile House on Oct. 23, and at Columneetza secondary gymnasium on Oct. 25. The trustees gave no hint of what might be included in the report to be released Tuesday. The board meetings start at 6:30 p.m. Chair Will Van Osch said the public consultation process is expected to be concluded by the end of December and the board is expected to make decisions on proposals in the report by the end of January. Superintendent of Schools Mark Thiessen also reported that initial enrollment figures are better than expected. On opening day he said the district was projecting a drop in enrollment of 200 students, but only had 150 students fewer than expected. Final enrollment figures won’t be tabulated and released until some time in October. During Tuesday’s meeting, Van Osch also introduced Lac La Hache area trustee Tanya Guenther as the new vice-chair to replace Patricia Baker who resigned last week to take a job in another province. Secretary-treasurer Bonnie Roller said she will be working with the District of 100 Mile House to arrange for a by-election in Zone 3 to replace Baker.

Council to start budget discussions earlier Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Building on last year’s efforts to engage the public in budget discussions, city council is hoping to start budget discussions earlier and engage more people this time around. There’ll be a half hour set aside at the beginning of each budget meeting for the public to make comments, the city’s website will provide constant updates on budget information, and there’ll be a
spot on the website for people to give feedback. “We’re inviting the public to come out and share their thoughts,” Mayor Kerry Cook said. “The online tool will help keep residents informed and up to date, as well as providing a convenient way to submit comments.” Council passed a motion asking staff to bring forward a status-quo budget with supplementals based on the strategic goals and priorities of council; however, Cook
said she couldn’t endorse the motion. “I am not in favour of a status-quo budget with additional items. The direction I wanted to give when we had our budget meeting on Sept. 5 was if we were going to look at any increased levels of supplementals that that would come off the current budget.” During that meeting Cook made a motion that there be no new staffing increases resulting in an increase in the budget,
but the motion was defeated. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor said by asking staff to bring forward a status-quo budget with supplementals it does not mean he’s going to approve everything that comes before him. “Staff will have to bring its report before council and council will have to make its decision.” Staff will also be asked to submit different 2013 budget scenarios, includ-
ing a zero per cent,1.5 per cent, and three per cent tax increase. “I want to congratulate my colleagues. No one agreed with me to bring a zero per cent increase option last year. Bringing a zero increase forward will let people see what kind of impact it will have,” Rathor said. The link to the budget tab is at the bottom of the city’s homepage, or can be accessed directly at http://www.williamslake. ca/index.asp?p=2238
Woodland Dr. resident may pay for his water hook-up Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Council has authorized a Woodland Drive resident to hook up to the city’s water on the condition he pay all costs and the hook-up plan meets engineering standards. In a letter dated Aug. 8, Troy Weil of Woodland Drive requested the city permit the connection of his parcel of land to the city water system. His home is located approximately 54 metres from the Zone 2 Woodland Drive reservoir. “This would, of course, be at my own expense
and none to the city,” Weil stated in his letter. Weil told the Tribune his family moved into their new home a month ago, and he decided it didn’t hurt to ask. He does not have any idea of the cost. The topic first came up at the Sept. 11 committee of the whole meeting, where council and staff discussed a recommendation from staff that Weil’s request be denied until a solution for all of Woodland Drive was finalized. A report from engineering technologist Jeff Bernardy noted the city’s current water bylaw has
provisions for connections of parcels of land that are within 20 metres of the nearest water main. General Manager of Planning and Operations Geoff Goodall explained if a property exceeds 20 metres from the water main, the city has no obligation to allow property owners to connect to the water main. Coun. Sue Zacharias asked if there are any other properties that are as close to the water main that could ask for the same thing, and heard there is one other property. Bernardy’s report ad-
vised while the connection of Weil’s property may be technically feasible, if council were to grant permission, the system should be designed by a professional engineer to the satisfaction of the city. Goodall said the city would want to make sure that it would work and not create a problem on the water main. “We think it’s probably feasible, but we would want an engineer to be involved,” he said. Bernardy also noted it’s a sensitive issue because the city is engaged with residents from Woodland
Drive about planning a service area there. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor honed in on Weil’s willingness to cover the cost as a reason to support it. “We had a good system and if someone else wants to come on board and pay for the utility I don’t have a problem with that. If he needs a booster pump or whatever, he should be fully responsible, not the city. As long as he is in agreement to pay the full cost, then I have no problem with it,” he said.

Rotary, Lt.-Gov open library in Stone The community of Yunesit’in (Stone) has a new library thanks to the efforts of the Rotary Club of Williams Lake. Last week Lieutenant Governor Steven Point joined the community to officially open the library. “The opening of the Yunestin’in Community Library is the culmination of a shared vision to provide access to literacy materials to all British Columbians in all parts of our province,” Point says. “It is a shining example of what can be accomplished when we work together toward a
common goal. We must learn from each other, understand and respect each other, to reach our fullest potential as people. We have a shared history and together we can make a great difference in the lives of our fellow citizens.” Britco donated a 10x40-foot trailer that was used during the 2010 Olympics by the media, and its transportation. The Rotary Club purchased a second trailer. “We turned one side into a library and the other side is the cultural centre and then we closed it in,” club president elect Nancy Giesbrecht says. In January 2011, the club made the decision to

pursue the project. “It involved some meetings with the community out at Stone because we really wanted them to tell us what they wanted. We wanted it to be their vision, not ours,” Giesbrecht explains. Originally the project centred on a library and then progressed to including a cultural centre. Books for the library came from several sources, including a $15,000 grant from the Rotary Club of Sechelt.
“When the president came up for the opening, he brought 100 boxes of books from the library there. We’ve got some clubs in Colorado that have been collecting books for the Daybreak Rotary’s Toosey library project and now us,” Giesbrecht says, adding the Salvation Army Corps in Williams Lake has been putting books aside to donate. “When the Daybreak Rotary did their book sale they picked out a few books

for us as well.” Four computers were also donated by the Colorado clubs. Yunesit’in chief Russell Myers-Ross is happy to see the facility added to the community. “It’s good to have something supplementary for the kids in the school,” he says. Excited about the cultural centre, Myers-Ross explains the community still needs to organize that aspect of the new facility and how it will be run.

Positive partnerships
End the ‘sick’ culture
t was incredible to have Lieutenant Governor Steven Point back in Williams Lake and the Cariboo for the third time in as many years, as he headed to Stone recently to open a new library in the community. Through partnerships and leadership From the between our RoMayor’s t a r y Chair clubs, Kerry Cook c o m munities and Government House, they are putting Williams Lake on the map. Thank you all. Brian Battison of Taseko Mines gave an informative presentation to council Tuesday night and introduced Christy Smith, manager of community and aboriginal affairs. Taseko plans to submit its Environmental Impact Statement to the federal government this week. I encourage everyone to get informed and participate in the review hearings. Council affirmed its support for the project Tuesday, conditional on First Nations and environmental concerns being addressed. I was honoured to be part of the unveiling of an Art in the Alley masterpiece earlier this month at Deana’s Studio and the Cariboo Friendship Society. These incredible murals, painted by students Jamie Moore and Miranda Fontaine under the mentorship of Dwayne Davis, are amazing additions to our downtown. Congratulations to the artists, the Williams Lake Central Business Improvement Area Association, and all who made this happen. I look forward to seeing even more beautiful art downtown in the future. During a visit to one of the city’s new businesses recently, I heard again how Community Futures is having a positive impact on our community, helping people turn their ideas and their dreams into real brick and mortar businesses, with the skills and resources they need to be successful. I want to recognize Community Futures and all it does to help potential business owners turn their plans into reality. Keep up the great work! I was unexpectedly called away last week to join my husband in New Brunswick. We honoured the life of my amazing father-in-law. It’s another reminder how important it is to live each day to the fullest. Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.
t’s Democracy Week in Canada, so it’s fitting that British Columbians have been debating the premier’s decision not to recall the legislature MLA this fall. Musings M y b l o g Bob Simpson post earlier this week was entitled “The Legislature shouldn’t be recalled until it’s reformed� to get people thinking about the changes we need to make B.C.’s legislature more effective when it does sit, rather than simply demanding we sit during October and November. A story in the National Post this week revealed the premier’s disdain for the workings of the legislature and gave some insight as to why she may have chosen not to have a fall session. She referred to the culture of the legislature as “sick,� and said she wasn’t going back but would instead tour the province talking to “real,� ordinary voters. I can empathize with the premier’s sentiments about how surreal it can be within the legislative precinct, and with her conclusion that the people advising her (and the NDP) all too often have a distorted view of reality that sees the world through a partisan lens. However, the premier is in the best position to lead the process of change that would reconnect what happens in B.C.’s capital to the needs of the people we’re supposed to serve. Instead of running away from this challenge, the premier should choose instead to stand and fight the battle for democratic reform she claimed she would champion when she ran for the leadership of the BC Liberal Party. Rather than being given an opportunity to join the premier at a contrived photo-op somewhere outside Victoria, “real� voters would be better served if the premier chose to radically reform our legislative democracy and legitimize the role of every MLA in the legislature. After all, real governance can only occur in the legislature, so the premier will have to return to that “sick� culture before the end of her term. If she’s serious about wanting a second term, she might as well try to diagnose that sickness now and start treating it immediately. Bob Simpson is the Independent MLA for Cariboo North.

Our Viewpoint
Help prevent more bears from being killed With the influx in recent bear encounters and the animals being put down as a result, the Conservation Officer Service may start issuing warnings — and fines — to those who aren’t doing their due diligence in removing attractants (see story, page A2). Between Sept. 14 and 16, 17 bears were destroyed in the Williams Lake and Quesnel areas, and while such measures are certainly open to debate, the fact remains that we all need to do our part to prevent bears from becoming habituated and developing a taste for garbage, bird food, fruit, and the like. We need to also remember that we are not the only residents of the Cariboo-Chilcotin, an area rich with wildlife and wild places that many of us
appreciate and enjoy. Animals, such as bears, are part of the countryside that us humans share with them. In order to preserve wildlife such as bears, we need to help protect those that, at times, cross paths with us. The best way to do that is to adhere to conservation officers’ advice to keep attractants away from bears. While no more bears have been killed since Sept. 16, they have been seen in residential areas, including Scout Island, South Lakeside, and Richard and Hodgson roads. Please keep your distance, as trying to interact with them not only gets them used to people, but it is also incredibly dangerous. Be bear aware and part of the solution.

Senseless bear killing must stop Editor:
there are no full-time Conservation Officers in the Great Bear Rainforest region. Our government bases its trophy hunt using what is called “ghost� estimate numbers for bear populations, which are extracted from decade-old population studies. Why are we so complacent in this province? Even though surveys indicate the majority of our citizens is against the hunt, only a hand full of First Nations, Pacific Wild and BC Coastal Bear and Wolf Patrol are willing to stand up against a so-called sport that caters solely to a group of elitist sociopaths that want a trophy for their wall. And because of that we
I applaud the Coastal First Nation communities for again standing up to our money-grubbing provincial government over the issue of trophy hunting grizzly bears. It seems our Liberal government can justify any disgusting practice, so long as it generates money. The government underfunds the Conservation Officer Service and bear biologists but clearly supports the hunt despite the fact they have no way of obtaining “accurate and current� bear population numbers or have any method in place to properly enforce the “legal harvesting� of bears since

all lose. The same resources currently used by these hunters could be used by sustainable eco-bear tourism. The same bush planes, guides and outfitter camps would remain in business. This would generate equal millions, perhaps even more, but it would require forward thinking which our government clearly lacks. The time is now for us all to stand together and stop the senseless killing of one of BC’s most majestic creatures. Dale Bakken Williams Lake

Politicos weigh in on Internet voting Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Cariboo Regional District Chair Al Richmond is glad to see someone from a regional district sitting on the Independent Panel on Internet Voting, announced by Chief Electoral Officer Keith Archer Monday. “I know Lee-Ann Crane, CEO for East Kootenay Regional District, professionally. It’s good to see some local government folks appointed on the panel to see how this is actually going to work.� Paramount, Richmond says, is how the integrity of the voting pro-
LETTERS ALWAYS WELCOME
cess can be maintained if Internet voting is introduced. “The idea is to encourage more people to get out and participate in the voting. No matter what we think of it, it will be up to those appointed people to muster, to sort through this. I think it will be difficult, although I haven’t heard too many people being opposed to it, but there will have to be a system ensuring people have free voting rights and then no one is unduly interfering with them.� When people go to the polls, he points out, they are by themselves in an election booth. No one else is there dictating it.
“That’s the highest level of concern I’ve heard voiced by people. It’s the privacy of the vote.� Other members of the panel are Chief Electoral Officer Keith Archer; Elections BC Chair Dr. Konstantin Beznosov, associate professor at the department of electrical and computer engineering, University of British Columbia; Dr. Valerie King, professor at the department of computer science, University of Victoria; and George Morfitt, former auditor general of British Columbia. Independent Cariboo North MLA Bob Simpson says it’s important to explore every opportuni-
ty to engage more people with the electoral process. “Security is an issue that can be overcome; however, the critical factor is to make sure we don’t do either/or because there are still lots of British Columbians that don’t have access to a computer or that can’t afford one.� More importantly, Simpson notes, is democratic reform. “I was meeting with Fair Vote Canada and Fair Voting BC. I still think we need to regard the single transferrable vote referendums we’ve had as an unfinished conversation.� Internet voting needs to be ex-
plored, he adds, but weaknesses in the existing system need to be addressed. “As we saw most recently in Quebec, a one percentage vote difference determined who got government, but at the end of the day, not one of those political parties had a majority support from the electorate.� Cariboo Chilcotin Liberal MLA Donna Barnett is confident the panel will delve into the security concerns. “It looks like a group of professionals that understand the complexity. It looks like a good mix,� she said.

Ilnicki wins breakaway roping title The B.C. Rodeo Association wrapped up its 2012 season in Quesnel last weekend with its Championship Finals featuring three days of jam-packed rodeo. The BCRA hosted 20 rodeos throughout the province this year with the top 10 in each event converging in Quesnel for the prestigious title of the BCRA Finals Champion. When the dust settled on Sunday the total points from all three go-rounds and the average were accumulated showing a tie in three events — breakaway roping, team roping and junior breakaway roping. To determine a champion the two tied competitors competed in a rope-off. For Williams Lake and area athletes, it was also a chance to secure several top finishes. Katrina Ilnicki proved to be in the most fine form of all, winning the breakaway roping championship buckle with a very speedy time in the tie-breaking rope-off over Richard Glassford of Quesnel. Prior to that she took second in the secondgo and first in the third go. Several others came close to
claiming buckles, but finished just on the outside looking in. In bull riding Riske Creek’s Ryan Jasper secured a second-place finish in round one with an 82-point ride, but failed to hang on in either of the next two rounds. Jasper, competing in tie-down roping in round two, finished second in 12.9 seconds. Tie-down roper Willee Twan took second in round one with a 13.6-second time, following that up with another second-place performance (7.3 seconds) in the team roping event with partner Jeff Wills of Quesnel. Twan went on to finish third in round three in 17.3 seconds. In steer wrestling Wade McNolty started off his run for a championship buckle in strong form capturing second in round one with a 4.9-second run. In round three McNolty took second, besting his first-round time in 4.8 seconds. In round two’s steer wrestling event 150 Mile House’s Rob Everett finished third with a 5.5-second time. Junior breakaway roper Micole Myers took third in round one with a 6.4-second time. In breakaway roping Denise Swampy finished third in round two with a 4.5-second run,

Close to 90 golfers showed their support to six-year-old Chase Lamont Saturday at Bell-EAcres during the Superhero’s Golf Tournament. Chase was recently diagnosed with liver cancer, and is currently
battling the disease at Vancouver’s Children’s Hospital. Kyla Wejr, Chase’s cousin and organizer of the tournament, said all of the proceeds will go into the “Chase Lamont Fundraiser” account at
the Williams Lake and District Credit Union. “The tournament went very well,” Wejr said. “We had a great turnout. “Thanks to all the businesses and the community in helping making the event a huge success.”

Eighty take to Likely for Paddlefest Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer The 21st installment of the Unlikely Paddlefest kayaking adventure is in the books, and organizer Mark Savard couldn’t be happier with how things went. The annual festival saw kayakers and paddlers from around the province — even some from as far away as France — converge in Likely over the weekend to paddle the rivers in the region. “Things were awesome,� said Unlikely Paddlefest organizer Mark Savard. “The sun and paddling were perfect. “River levels were
bang on and there was some unreal surf going down.� Savard said about 80 boaters paddled the upper and lower Cariboo River, the Quesnel River and the Chilko River, a number he noted was a solid turnout. “One thing an outof-towner said, though, was: ‘Where is everybody?’ I said, ‘Huh?’ I thought we had a great turnout. Likely was buzzing with paddlers. But he said with the weather and rivers of this quality there should be thousands of boaters out. We laughed and figured that the locals really don’t get it. It’s like living on a golf course and never even

Williams Lake crowned Ryder Cup champs Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Every two years a heated two-team battle takes place between the best professional golfers in the U.S. and Europe known as the Ryder Cup. Last weekend at the Williams Lake Golf and Tennis Club Quesnel, 108 Mile House, Prince
George and Williams Lake played their own version of the tournament complete with its own “Ryder Cup” on the line. Williams Lake and players from the WLGTC emerged the champions. Players played two rounds of golf Saturday and one round on Sunday paired against one anoth-
er in match play format for points to determine the winning team. “Points were one point for the front nine, one point for the back nine and ties were half a point,” said WLGTC head pro Peter Stellato, who played for Williams Lake in the tournament. The final score breakdown saw Williams Lake upend Prince George by
14 points, winning 48 to 34. In third place was 108 Mile House with 23.5 points, while Quesnel finished fourth with 20.5 points.
Stellato said it was a fun tournament, but added it will be difficult to defend the championship next year when the Ryder Cup shifts locations to
the 108 Golf Resort. “It’s usually the home team that wins most of the time,” he said. “The home-course advantage is big, but it was a nice
win for us.” He said the weather was fantastic and the course was in great condition, adding to the success of the weekend.

Artists make generous gift to gallery Gaeil Farrar Tribune Staff Writer The art work presented at the Station House Gallery this month by Ed and Marta Deak has extra special meaning for the gallery. Except for three paintings, which will be donated to the Museum of the Cariboo Chilcotin, this generous artistic couple is donating all proceeds from the sale of their work to the gallery. Marta’s paintings are delicate reflections of flowers, birds, and landscapes and Ed’s paintings are more dramatic reflections of landscapes and the nude human form. Both Ed and Marta have had a lifelong affair with various forms of arts and crafts but are featuring their oil paintings in this show. Marta has been specializing in and teaching a number of crafts for many years, while also working on her creative arts. After settling in Big Lake Marta taught small groups of women in various crafts of making something creative from whatever was on hand — Christmas ornaments from egg shells, painted wooden hangers, quilting, and sharing skills in gift wrapping, bow making, and flower arranging she learned while working for Birks and Woodwards in Vancouver. “Painting came later,� Marta says. “Whatever I do it comes from the heart. I love to work with water colours as well.� Ed started taking professional art lessons in 1942, at the age of 15, while growing up in Hungary. At 17, while still in high school, he was already working as an animator on cartoon movies. Ed and Marta met in Obertraun, Austria in 1945, when Ed was an 18-year-old prisoner of war recuperating in a military hospital from a leg wound he sustained in Poland. Marta was a 17-year-old Hungarian refugee from Romania who was helping her parents with the task of cleaning the hospital. She says they worked only for food because money had absolutely no value in those days.

Ed and Marta Deak have had a love affair with art all of their lives and have shared that love for art with each other since falling in love at first sight more than 67 years ago. Now they are sharing their love for art with the public by donating proceeds from the sale of their paintings in their show to the Station House Gallery.
“It was just to keep us alive,� Marta says. “When I wrote my story, what I could remember, it was a tremendously emotional experience for me.� Despite the difficult times it was love at first sight for Ed and Marta. They were married in Cambridge, England March 30, 1951 and moved to Vancouver in 1955, then to their ranch at Big Lake in 1979. In Vancouver Ed had his own cabinet making company and in his spare time was a car rally enthusiast. He was the navigator for the Nissan team and says it was a rally through the interior of B.C. that eventually
resulted in the couple moving to the Cariboo. “As a kid I was always dreaming about forests and lakes, which is completely different from the environment I lived in,� Ed says. “... Just past Clinton I felt that I had come home. It’s a different world all together.� They first bought a cabin at Hawkins Lake. Then after taking a camping trip to Barkerville and Likely area, they found and bought their ranch at Big Lake. They each have an art studio but continue to work seven days a week, ranching, building and mak-
ing furniture for themselves and on their respective artwork. They have three grown children living in Armstrong, Oliver and Vancouver, four grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren. Ed also writes a weekly column on economics and politics for the Gold River Record. He doesn’t have much use for the current governments in power. “Governments are giving everything away and we are paying for it,� Ed says. He says they have been members of the Station House Gallery Society for 30 years and decided to donate the proceeds from the sale of their paintings in efforts to help sustain the gallery in the face of recent government funding cuts. “We thought we would contribute what we can,� Ed says. Although they rarely exhibit their work, Ed and Marta’s paintings can be found in collections all over the world. Their show at the Station House Gallery runs until Sept. 29 and is aptly called The Gift.

Film Club shows Starbuck Krista Liebe Special to The Tribune The Williams Lake Film Club will show Starbuck next Tuesday, Sept. 25, at the Gibraltar Room. Screening time is 7 p.m., and back doors will open at 6:30 p.m. The film stars Patrick Huard, Julie LeBreton and Antoine Bertrand, and is directed by Ken Scott. It runs 110 minutes in French with English subtitles. This film has been one of the most popular ever in Québec, so popular that Steven Spielberg picked up on it and has decided to make an English version of the film. The film is about David Wozniak, 42, whose life is coming to a screeching halt. His girlfriend is pregnant,

Some thugs keep dropping by unexpectedly and nearly drown him in the hope of collecting on an overdue $80,000 debt. Plus, the middle-aged slacker is a constant screw-up at the family butcher shop, regularly making deliveries late. The soccer jerseys he promises to fetch for a team photo — you
guessed it — don’t get picked up on time. These turn out to be the least of his worries because, about 20 years earlier, David regularly contributed to a local sperm bank. He was so prolific that he was given the code name Starbuck, after a particularly willing and able Canadian bull who sired more than 2,000 offspring. “It is like paying us
to breathe,” one buddy comments. David learns the clinic has used his contributions to sire 533 children, 142 of whom have launched a classaction suit to learn the name of their father. With the help of his lawyer friend, David files suit against the clinic to keep his identity secret and for much-needed cash. But David can’t leave well enough alone. He can’t help wondering about the children he has fathered and begins to track them down, randomly and one by one. With such a fertile concept in play, it is no surprise that what unfolds is a wonderfully sweet and poignant comedy that goes in all kinds of unexpected directions.
Sosua collection dates coming up Two special events are coming up at Canadian Tire in Williams Lake to collect donations for Sosua, Dominican Republic, Williams Lake’s sister city since 2007. Collection days will be held at Canadian Tire this Saturday, Sept. 22 and again on Saturday, Oct. 6 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, says event organizer Glen Lahey. The goal is to fill a container with help for Sosua’s poorest people. Medical equipment donated earlier by two lakecity dentists to establish a dental clinic in Sosua and other used medical equipment donated by Deni House will fill about a third of the container, Lahey says. He is looking for donations from the community to fill the rest of the container. Suggested donations include the following new or gently used items.

MORTGAGE MESSAGE Look Beyond the Rate! With interest rates as low as they are these days it’s easy to get caught up in the idea that rate is the only thing that matters. You want the best bang for your mortgage buck and that’s got you comparing mortgage rates day and night! But also consider the following: What’s your long term plan?
WE’LL BE IN BELLA COOLA, EXCHANGING THE OLD BC HYDRO METER ON YOUR HOME WITH A NEW SMART METER.
Are you purchasing a home that you plan to stay in for 5 or more years? Or do you want a ‘project house’ that you can renovate and sell in 2 years? If you’re in it for the long haul then a 5-10 year term makes sense for you. However, if you choose a 5 year term but are planning on selling in 2 years, you’re going to pay a hefty penalty to the lender to get out 3 years early. Ouch!
BC Hydro is upgrading homes and businesses with new smart meters. Moving to a more efďŹ cient, modernized grid will help us meet the growing demand for electricity while continuing to deliver safe, reliable power throughout the province.
Will you make extra mortgage payments throughout the term? Are you hoping to pay off your mortgage as fast as possible?
Here’s what you can expect: ã 7\SLFDOO\ PHWHU LQVWDOODWLRQ ZLOO WDNH SODFH Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. PST.
It’s very important to find out what pre-payment privileges are included in your mortgage. For example, some lenders allow you to make extra lump sum payments. Some lenders allow you to increase your monthly payments. And some lenders don’t allow for any of this!

“They call the Cariboo home” George and Gloria Atamanenko share everlasting love Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Things come full circle in people’s lives and there are various ways people circumvent those circles. For George and Gloria Atamanenko, the Cariboo-Chilcotin has always been a draw — a place they came and went to. That was up until a couple of decades ago when they purchased Tuffy’s Spring Ranch on Valley Road, above 150 Mile House. They were en route to their cabin on Horn Lake in the Chilcotin, when they stopped in to visit Tuffy and Velma Derrick at the ranch and learned the couple wanted to sell. “We looked at each other, went out to the Chilcotin, came back and had a visit and said we were interested. We agreed and shook hands on a price, and told them it might take us a year,” George recalls. In less than a year they made the move. Gloria, now 80, was one of eight children born into a Ukrainian family in Northern Alberta. The Chomiaks were farming between High Level and Fort Vermillion. The area saw seven months of snow and two more of hard sledding, Gloria says, chuckling. Correspondence school only went to Grade 10, so on the invitation to go live with an uncle in the U.S., she attended Wilmington High School, in Wilmington, Delaware. After high school, she won a scholarship to attend a Quaker College. Upon graduation, she began working in social work, but after her uncle’s death decided to leave the U.S. “I appreciated America, but it wasn’t home country to me and I wanted to go back to Canada. I wrote to Mom and Dad and said I wanted to come back to Fort Vermillion and they were

George and Gloria Atamanenko are long-time supporters of the Station House Gallery and regularly attend gallery openings. Here they attend the opening for the September show featuring the paintings of Ed and Marta Deak. happy to have me back.” Meanwhile George, who Gloria’s family called the “handsome land inspector,” visited the farm on a regular basis. He often came for dinner on Friday evenings and stayed the weekend to help them on their farm. “I was in Alberta working with the Department of Lands in the settlement of agricultural land,” George says. Gloria and her sister Alice, who was a teacher, were both home that summer. “Mother looked us over and she pointed her finger at Alice and said ‘you sit beside Daddy tonight. She gets to sit beside that land inspector,’ pointing to me,” Gloria says. After dinner George suggested they take a walk. He wanted to go down by the river and had a plan to see how well Gloria’s balance was. “Half way down he asked if I could stand on one leg. I
thought, ‘This man is funny. What am I doing here?’ but then said ‘sure why not?’ Once he saw I could he said, ‘Great, I could teach you to ski.” Even funnier is the fact Gloria never did take up skiing. George, however, continues to ski every Friday at Mt. Timothy. George, now 83, was born in New Westminster, one of two children. His brother Adam is the NDP MP in the Southern Interior. Their father, who was from the Ukraine, and their mother, who was from Siberia, met, married and raised their sons in the Queensborough area of New Westminster. George and Gloria were married in 1953 and eventually had two sons — Boris and Peter. The family began coming to the Cariboo Chilcotin when there was an opening for a land inspector in the Clinton, Kamloops area and then eventually
in Williams Lake. “We were looking at Crown Land and its leasing arrangements, subdivision, and attending cattlemen’s meetings. There was a fellow here at the time named Jack Esler and he worked east of the Fraser and I was west of the Fraser,” George remembers, adding to this day he knows more about the Chilcotin than the Cariboo. They left to return to university, and then lived and worked in Edmonton for a few years, followed by a couple decades in Victoria. Looking out toward the little lake behind their home, Gloria explains that it was once a wet meadow. “Valley Creek flows through our ranch and the beavers put in a super dam over the years.” The Atamanenkos have built up the lake and done some riparian repair along the creek to keep the trees and shrubs intact.
The pond and marsh, George insists, are part of a series of marshes that form a network, inviting to herons, geese, ducks, and sandhill cranes. Owls and deer are regular visitors as well. “People have asked if we’ve ever thought of moving to town, but we tell them we’re going to be here until we’re 100. It’s still an agricultural land reserve, which is what we want. We’ve worked with Duck’s Unlimited to help bring the bird life here.” A few years ago they sold their cattle herd, and these days rent out grazing land. They’ll raise one or two cows a year to feed themselves and another family. Both are involved with the Council of Canadians and the Seniors Advisory Council; the latter gives seniors a fair shake in the community, George suggests. He’s also involved with the Cariboo Regional District Heritage Committee, is the chair of the CRD Advisory Planning Commission and has been a director of the Williams Lake & District Credit Union for a decade. Gloria has helped put together local history books, in particular Gumption and Grit, and translated other people’s writing. She says getting people’s life stories is important. Agreeing, George suggests those stories help tell the world about the region and the people who have helped shape it. As they serve up homemade peach pie after a scrumptious dinner of locally prepared pork sausage from 153 Mile House, Soda Creek corn they picked recently, homemade bread and a salad made with vegetables from their garden, it’s evident they’re following the hospitality tradition of their parents, who both say always offered a cup of tea and something to eat to visitors.
