Parlour client tattooed by gift certificates By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News

April Gibson had been looking forward to getting a special half-sleeve tattoo on her upper arm and was counting on $250 in gift certificates to help cover the cost. Gibson, however, alleges Uwe and Mel Vullings, owners of Prophecy Tattoo and Piercing on Second Street in Smithers, tattooed her verbally with profanity and refused to honour the gift certificates. The certificates were gifts from her brother and her husband, purchased from Prophecy Tattoo and Piercing. “I was really looking forward to getting the tattoo started, Gibson said. The problem is the gift certificates had expiry dates and by the time Gibson went to have the tattoo done, the gift certificates had expired. See TATTOO on p. A2

Smithers leads in supporting small business By Dan Mesec Smithers / Interior News

Last week Smithers was named one of the best communities in British Columbia to support small business owners, and received an award from the provincial government at this year’s Union of British Columbian Municipalities convention

in Victoria, B.C. Smithers, along with five other communities in the province, accepted the B.C.’s Most Small Business Friendly Community award recognizing local policies, projects and programs that support small business within the community. Kamloops, Nanaimo, Nelson,

North Vancouver District and Prince George also won the award. “These awards are a great way to recognize communities that go the extra

mile to improve their business environment,” Minister of State for Small Business, Naomi Yamamoto said in a press release. “Small business

is a huge economic driver in this province, and the more successful each community is, the more successful the province is as a whole.” In B.C., 98 per

cent of businesses are small businesses and contribute more than 29 per cent of the provinces gross domestic product. See UBCM on Page 3

Complaint goes to Consumer Protection BC TATTOO from A1 However, B.C. legislation states gift certificates, unless issued for a specific good or service such as a haircut, are not to carry expiry dates. “The Consumer Protection Act, with some exceptions, says gift certificates are valid until used,” lawyer Kelly Pollock said. “They [issuer of gift certificate] have received payment for the gift certificate.” But the Vullings don’t see it that way. According to Gibson, Mel Vullings took $200 worth of gift certificates from her, ripped them up and claimed they were expired. Gibson has filed a complaint with Consumer Protection

BC. and is seeking a refund for the full value of the three gift certificates. In her complaint, Gibson alleges the Vullings called the police when she refused to leave without the ripped gift certificates. According to Gibson the RCMP agreed the certificates had expired and said there was nothing that could be done. Because Prophecy Tattoo and Piercing is a cash-only business, receipts were not issued for the gift certificates and without the gift certificates in hand, Gibson doesn’t have proof of purchase for the $200 in gift certificates. Phone calls and e-mails to Prophecy Tattoo were not returned.

For Smithers council the award represents a dedicated effort to provide new opportunities and the proper economic environment for small businesses to flourish. “It was wonderful to receive the award,” Mayor Taylor Bachrach said. “It’s a real recognition of the vibrance of our small business community and their success, as well as the role council has played in terms of listening to small business and helping facilitate the development of independent business in Smithers.” The convention hosted more than 1,500 delegates from all over the province as well as from other regions of the country. UBCM accepts several resolutions from B.C. municipalities every year and selected 200 resolutions to be debated by delegates during the convention. Resolutions that were front and center this year included a vote to recommend the decriminalization of Marijuana, a resolution to reduce

oil tanker traffic off the B.C. coast and support for a Canada European trade agreement. The Highway of Tears resolution brought forward by Smithers council, which was recommended to be received by NCGLA in the spring, was indeed received by delegates with overwhelming support. “Going into the convention I wasn’t optimistic the resolution would make it to the floor for a vote because it was buried

in the C Block, which are resolutions that don’t automatically come to the floor,” Bachrach said. “But, I felt we owed it to the families of people who have gone missing to at least try and bring the issue forward at the convention.” As the convention was winding down, Bachrach had an opportunity to forward the motion and bring the resolution to the floor and was pleasantly surprised to see it was strongly supported by the

OUT OF THEE

delegates. “Not only were we able to bring it to the floor for debate, but the response from the delegates was entirely positive.” “There were no arguments in opposition to the motion and it passed with a very strong majority.” This clearly sends a message to the province that this project is overdue and rural northern communities deserve a safe and reliable form of transportation along the High-

way 16 corridor. Bachrach said he’s looking forward to council working with the province and BC Transit to make the Highway 16 corridor much safer for those who travel across it.

The Telkwa community stage, built specifically for the 100th anniversary of the Telkwa BBQ received a Wood WORKS! BC Community Recognition Award at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention last week. Dan Mesec photo

Telkwa stage receives WoodFirst Award By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News

It was a costsaving decision that eventually turned out to be an awardwinning decision for the Bulkley Valley Kinsmen and the Village of Telkwa. The new community stage at the Telkwa barbecue grounds earned the Wood WORKS! BC Community Recognition Award for the region served by the North Central Local Government Association. “It’s rewarding to receive recognition from the Canadian Wood Council for this marvelous community structure,” Village of Telkwa Councillor Rimas Zitkauskas said of the award. “There is even a greater satisfaction in knowing this project was accomplished by community volunteers partnering with private business and the Village for the enjoyment of all.” The announcement was made at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Victoria last week. “We’re excited

the village could get recognition for the Bulkley Valley Kinsmen project,” Bulkley Valley Kinsman Sean Mitchell said of the award. “We’re quite happy with the final product.” The stage was designed and built by Nathan Murdoch of Soko Construction. Murdoch offered three designs to the Kinsmen, all of which had wood as a main structure and the Kinsmen selected the one which they felt was the most esthetically pleasing. “The natural feel of the wood goes with the local environment,”

Mitchell said for the initial decision to require the stage designs have wood as the main structural component. Nonetheless, another important consideration for the Kinsmen, was the availability of local timbers and Dean Daly stepped up to donate more than 50 logs to build the stage. Each log was milled off-site to specifications from shop drawings. With the skilled help of Dave Jones and Morgan Widen, the pieces were assembled atop the concrete slab poured by Mulder Concrete and everything fell into place.

“It was pretty stressful until we got it all together,” Murdoch admitted. The supporting beams posed the biggest challenge for Murdoch and his crew, not the assembly, but rather their weight. The beams were 8,500 pounds, just under the 10,000 pound capacity of the biggest lift they could find in the region. Murdoch tipped his hat to Blair Andrews

who’s skill as a lift operator made the job go smoothly. The award is all the more rewarding for Murdoch who took up designing structures as a hobby several years ago, but never had the opportunity to design a structure of the size of the Telkwa community stage. “Everything worked out,” he said. “It’s really great, it’s an honour for sure.”

In accordance with Section 224 and 227 (1) of the Community Charter, The Village of Telkwa is proposing to adopt the 2013 Property Tax Exemption Bylaw 625, 2012. The impact of this exemption can be viewed on the Village of Telkwa Website (www. telkwa.com) or at 1415 Hankin Avenue. The 2013 Property Tax Exemption Bylaw No. 615, 2012 will be on the Council agenda for third reading October 9, 2012 with final reading set for October 22, 2012. Any questions or concerns should be addressed in writing before October 4, 2012 for the October 9, 2012 Regular meeting of Council.

Double standard T

o say Ronalee ‘Rona’ Ambrose has had a difficult career as a federal politician would be an understatement. Ambrose began her career as Minister for the Environment, although she had no formal training in matters relating to the environment, other than breathing and consuming resources like the rest of us. She apparently isn’t good at math either. With a population of just 17 individuals in British Columbia in 2006, Ambrose didn’t think the northern spotted owl merited special protection under the Species at Risk Act. Would she say the same thing if there were only 17 people left in B.C? Things looked up for Ambrose in 2010 with her appointment as Minister of State for Status of Women. She’s a woman, so she comes to the portfolio with plenty of experience and would fight the good fight on women’s issues. Right? Depends on your point of view. Last week, Ambrose stood in the House of Commons to side with the yea side on a private member’s bill to re-examine at what point human life begins, a motion some argued could lead to the criminalization of abortion. The outcry was predictable and immediate. Pro-choice groups decried her decision to side with the motion and called for her resignation. But what about this notion of pro-choice? Does it apply only to certain values? Despite her lack of political savvy, Ambrose has represented the riding of Edmonton-Spruce Grove since 2004. Her constituents had the choice of electing her or not. If women’s groups and pro-choice groups are unhappy with Ambrose they can mount a campaign during the next election to make sure she isn’t re-elected. They can do that, Canada has free speech. Ambrose exercised her right to free speech and like it or not, she had every right to do so, however misguided. - Percy N. Hébert/Interior News

B.C. government’s misguided spending priority

T

he Union of BC

Municipalities annual convention held last week in Victoria provides an important venue for face-to-face meetings between northern local governments and BC cabinet ministers. It is a chance for rural mayors, councillors and regional district directors to make their case regarding fiscal needs, policies and programs. I attended more than a dozen of these meetings at the invitation of municipalities and regional districts in Stikine.

The needs are great, especially when it comes to infrastructure. The ice arena in Hazelton, a water tower in Telkwa and a new hospital in Smithers to name a few. Inevitably the answers received from ministers had much to do with the tight fiscal times the provincial government is facing. Local governments and the Official Opposition understand this. Yet an event that transpired earlier in the week brought into focus a shocking lack of spending priorities by this government. At the Select

GUEST VIEW Doug Donaldson Standing Committee on Finance, government and Official Opposition MLAs considered a request by B.C.’s chief electoral officer for an extra $1 million in spending this year. The reason? To hold a vote

at the same time as our May 14, 2013 provincial election to put forward a name for a vacant senate seat for B.C. That process requires a change in legislation. There was a Bill introduced in the spring session of the legislature but it didn’t get debated as the government ran out of time due to the avalanche of lastminute legislation they brought forward in late May. So instead of dealing with the Bill in the fall session, and a full debate on the $1 million cost of holding this special election, the government

cancelled that sitting. Hence the finance committee had to deal with the request to support legislation that hasn’t even been debated or passed. $1 million dollars could be used on many other priorities and the Official Opposition MLAs on the finance committee made that clear. They were out-voted by the government majority on the committee. After listening to local government presentations at UBCM it makes you wonder where this government’s spending priorities lie – with the senate or the needs of small communities?

Kinsmen deserve tip of the hat Editor : As a resident of the Village of Telkwa for the past fourteen years I would like to express my gratitude and impression with the Bulkley Valley Kinsmen Club and their volunteers for their remarkable effort and success with the 100th Annual Demolition Derby during the Labor Day weekend this year. I attended the Saturday night music concert featuring “Trooper” and day time demolition events with my children. As a member of the public, I observed the weekend events unfold during day time as well as night time and together with hundreds, perhaps even thousands of

people, appreciated the scale and success of the entire event. Thousands of people attended and enjoyed the family entertainment of the weekend, which ended without any major setbacks or concerns. In discussions with Telkwa residents after the weekend it became clear how many people approved of the weekend activities with only a few minor incidents reported. With repeated large crowds every day and night throughout the weekend, there were predictable concerns with crowd control, security, excessive alcohol consumption, traffic control and camping facilities, to name a few areas. From feedback I received there were some unforeseen situations and

unexpected developments but in reality the community experienced a well organized event, of such magnitude rarely seen in the Bulkley Valley. I, and many others not as vocal as me, tip our hats to the Kinsmen and their helpers for the resounding success

of this weekend, socially and certainly financially as well, judging by the attendance numbers. You gained an improved reputation of success and community mindedness and have so much to draw from for future improvements and modifications.

In closing, thank you for the extraordinary effort and commitment in building a permanent bandstand on time for this event. A bandstand none as good in all of BC northwest, at the ready, to add to the potential and appeal of Telkwa as a home community.

Your work in plain view and behind the scene did not go unnoticed. Media relations can be improved to ensure better media coverage of the event before and after the weekend. All the best in planning next year’s much anticipated event. I hope you guys can do it all over again. Louis Moolman Telkwa

Enbridge not worth the risk Editor: In my opinion the proposed Enbridge pipeline isn’t worth the risk. Take the time to think about it. Do you really trust an oil company when they screw us at the gas pumps? Look at what we

pay per litre, way over priced. It’s pocket padding in it’s purest form. Now they want us in northern British Columbia to put our environment at high risk just so they can ship Alberta oil to the East. Enbridge are nothing less than straight out liars and cheats who’ve been screwing us at the gas pumps for years, making stories on why they are always jacking up the price of gas. It’s one made up lie after another and now they want us to trust them. I say to Enbridge and other huge oil companies take your pipeline, your bucket’s of money and your untruths and stick them where the sun don’t shine. Fred Romanov Topley

Smithers house receives SAFERhomes certification Accessibility must remain at forefront of issues across northern BC By Percy N. HĂŠbert Smithers/Interior News

Most of us pay not attention to the lip at the entrance of a store, or stepping up onto a curb, but for some these little steps can pose serious problems. In Smithers, a group of volunteers called Measuring Up the North are trying to eliminate barriers, large and small, to make Smithers and other communities in the north as accessible as possible, with the goal of reaching 100 per cent accessibility. Thus far, the group has painted yellow stripes along the edges of 32 business entrances that pose a challenge for some members of the community. “This will help shoppers and visitors with vision impairments to be aware of these tripping hazards,� MUTN committee member Monika Mueller, said. Rather than regarding the stripe as a proverbial scarlet letter, the businesses recognized the importance of having the barriers to accessibility identified. “I believe they were grateful it was done,� Mueller, said. “ Subway treated us with a big cookie each.� MUTN also sponsored improvements to the Chicken

Creek section of the Perimeter Trail to make it wheelchair accessible. The Town of Smithers assisted with the project, as did LB Paving, with a donation of gravel, C.G. Brooks Contracting. The Northern Health Authority also chipped in with a grant to help MUTN level out the trail. Last Friday MUTN held an open house at one of Smithers’ first SAFERhomes certified houses. To receive a SAFERhome certification, a house must meet several criteria, including exterior and interior threshold standards, light switch positioning, size of doors and hallways and reinforcements in strategic locations, Mueller said. Despite these ventures, Mueller said accessibility for all citizens must remain at the forefront of community planning.

SVFD for fire prevention week

Off the wire

If you wake up to fire in your home, how much time do you think you would have to get to safety? According to the non-profit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), onethird of Americans households who made an estimate though they would have at least six minutes before a fire in their home would become life threatening. Unfortunately, the time available is often less. That’s why Smithers Fire Department is teaming up with NFPA during Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 7-13, 2012, to urge residents to “ Have Two Ways Out.” This year’s theme focuses on the importance of fire escapes planning and practice. “Fire is unpredictable and moves faster than most people realize. Having a tried and true escape plan with two ways out is essential to ensuring your family’s safety, should fire break out in your home,” Smithers Fire Department, Fire Chief Keith Stecko said. Smithers Fire Department recommends the following tips for planning you family’s escape: – Make a map of your home. Mark a door and window that can be used to get out of every room.

– Choose a meeting place outside in front of your home. This is where everyone can meet once they’ve escaped. Draw a picture of your outside meeting place on your escape plan. – Write the emergency telephone number for the fire department on your escape plan. – Sound the smoke alarm and practice your escape plan with everyone living in your home. – Keep your escape plan on the refrigerator and have your family practice the plan twice a year or whenever anyone in your home celebrates a birthday. On Oct. 6, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at McDonald’s Restaurant, the Smithers Fire Department in partnership with McDonald’s, will be hosting Fire Prevention Tips, during Fire Prevention Week to promote “Have Two Ways Out!” Through these educational, family-oriented activities, residents can learn more about the importance of fire escape planning and practice, as well as the power of prevention. To find out more about Fire Prevention Week programs and activities in Smithers please contact the Smithers Fire Department at 250-847-2015 Ext. 2.

Steelheads set to play Vanderhoof in doubleheader New season, same goal the Steelheads are close to finalizing their roster which could prove to be as effective as last year’s. “Jody Peterson has played hockey at a high level and knows how to bring his game to the rink every time,” Smith said of the recently acquired Peterson. “We’re a young team so just their presence is going to help the younger guys a lot.” As the core of the Steelheads squad return for another season, other than a couple of exceptions, the roster is going to remain relatively the same. However, with the addition of Jody Peterson and Mike Wall back between the pipes, both two highcaliber, experienced hockey players, the Steelheads are so far looking pretty tight to begin the season this weekend. “I think the depth this year will be there,” DeVries said. “A few guys are a bit skeptical at the moment with work issues, but once we get that sorted out we’ll be back with five lines, so I think it’s going to look as strong as last year.” Coming off a huge win at the annual preseason Challenge

By Dan Mesec Smithers / Interior News

The Smithers Steelheads are going head-to-head this weekend against the Vanderhoof Omineca, to kick off the 2012/13 CIHL regular season at the Smithers Civic Arena. Sweeping last years standings with an 18-0 record and 6-1 record in the post-season, the Steelheads are definitely hoping to continue their dominance. However, after holding such a dominate position within the standings, the Omineca are sure to be gunning for a win over the defending CIHL champions. “We’re expecting them to be physical, intense and I think they’re coming for four points and we have to be ready and be on our game, not taking them lightly and not live off last year’s success,” Steelheads assistant captain, Ian Smith said. Last season’s success was rooted in the Steelheads depth. They had five full lines which gave head coach, Tom DeVries peace of mind whenever he needed to fill a gap. But after losing a couple of key players this summer,

Cup tournament in Terrace last weekend, beating Kitimat 11-1 on Friday night and Terrace 7-2 Saturday, the Steelheads are brushing off the dust and looking hungry to defend their Lightning Cup victory from last season. But as far as the Steelheads are concerned, said Smith, they’re looking at a fresh season and won’t be taking anyone lightly. “I don’t think there’s anything we have to change,” Smith said. “I think we need to realize this is a new season and last year means nothing.” “We set the bar last year and teams aren’t going to stop, every team is going to be gunning for us.”

“A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN OUR REGION”

Smithers holds district tryouts for midget girls team By Dan Mesec Smithers / Interior News

The northwest district will soon be home to a midget girls hockey team, after the first round of tryouts last weekend at the Smithers Civic Arena. Athletes from across the northwest were on hand hoping to catch the eye of four coaches leading the new midget girls team in the region. Looking for talent and skill, coach Troy Larden said the tryouts couldn’t have gone better, noting the amount of quality athletes here in the north are impressive. “The tryouts went really great, notification went out three weeks ago and it’s been nonstop communication between communities from as far as Fort St. James to Prince Rupert,” Larden said. Following the end of last year’s season, Larden and a couple of other coaches for the region looked at the stats from last year and realized many midget girls would be graduating this year,” Larden said. “So we thought if there was a year to have a midget girls team this year would be the year to do it.” Girls hockey in B.C.’s central interior has been gaining a lot of ground as of late. Two years ago, Smithers formed a bantam girls team that played in a tournament in 100 Mile House and faired quite well. Looking to build the strongest team possible Larden said finding a core group of girls with skill is not the only thing he and the other coaches are looking for. They also want to see a strong team dynamic that will grow as the team gets closer to finalizing their roster.

Hanna Groot, Jenna and Cassidy Elliot and Anna Larden are just some of the local names that were on the ice this weekend looking for a spot on the team. With a tier-one tournament already in the works for the girls to play in Kamloops, Larden said just from the first two tryouts, they are going to have a strong team that will reflect the talent of the northwest. “I think the girls division in minor hockey is a bit static right now, so we want to generate some opportunity for them,” Larden said. “There aren’t many places for them to play and I think by starting this rep team, if we are successful and have an opportunity to grow, it might create some incentive for other players to join up and put in more effort to become better hockey players.” This weekend the girls midget rep team will be holding tryouts again, Saturday and Sunday night at the Smithers Civic Arena.

Smithers Sustainable Resiliency Plan

4-H sets out for the Prairies By Dan Mesec Smithers / Interior News

Members from the local 4-H Club participated in a youth exchange program this past summer that took them from B.C.’s mountainous northwest to Saskatchewan’s flat wheat fields and back again. Dave and Steve Dieleman were among the two of the Smithers group who first visited the 4-H club in Saskatchewan. “It was a great trip,” Steve said. “We went zip-lining the first day we were there and then the host family I stayed with went to the Calgary Stampede, that was definitely a highlight.” Every year the 4-H club organizes a trip across the west, to introduce its younger members to the different cultures and industries that have been part of Canada for hundreds of years. Dieleman said taking

a tour of a museum and an old grain elevator sowed him the different kinds of resources they have in the prairies as opposed the B.C. “There were lots of people doing oil, not like how we have a lot of logging here,” he said. “I know more about the culture of oil and the wheat and gain that they

have there now.” After seeing a few more sights during his visit, including the West Edmonton Mall, Dieleman flew home to await his new friends from Saskatchewan to visit his 4-H club here in Smithers. “We took our new friends to the Halifax Camp on Babine Lake,”

Dieleman said. “We also took them on a tour of the Canfor Mill in Houston and one night we held a 4-H dance for everyone into the wee hours of the night.” Dieleman said he enjoyed showing his new friends around the different places here in the northwest and

Sports Smithers Secondary Gryphons come up big in Fort St. James By Dan Mesec Smithers / Interior News

Fall soccer is taking over the northwest, with the Smithers Secondary School Gryphons placing first at a tournament in Fort St. James last weekend. “I think we did great,” Gryphons forward, Marcel Barralon said. “Teams were pretty competitive out there but overall it was pretty good.” “We had some good positioning down and a few key goals, so it was a good tournament.” The SSS Gryphons came out flying Kicking off the first a several tournaments to determine the northwest zone provincial contender. The Gryphons quickly overwhelmed the much less experienced team from Quesnel, taking a 8-0 sweep of game one. Going up against their Fort St. James rivals in the second match of the tournament, the Gryphons fell behind early in

the first half, but managed to tie it up at one before the half. To start the second half, Fort St. James again put a quick one passed the Gryphons keeper to take the lead. But the Gryphons were nowhere near finished. Taking possession of the ball as the clock drove into the final quarter of the half, the Gryphons broke through the Fort St. James defense and scored two unanswered goals to squeak out their second victory 3-2. The Gryphons third game was a display of dominance, as they destroyed Westside High from Prince George, 12-0, putting the Gryphons in the lead heading into the final game against Burns Lake. The Gryphons came out hard, pinning Burns Lake in their own territory for most of the game, slamming the goalkeeper with numerous attempts. Despite some fantastic saves by the

Burns Lake keeper, the Gryphons pushed through to a 3-0 victory, with Barralon scoring back-to-back goals and Sylvio Luther picking up the third. “I think we have a good chance at making provincials for sure,” Barralon said. “If we keep playing the way we are now I think we’ll be in there.” “In our zone right now, there aren’t any other teams currently practicing as much as us, so it’s looking good.” After taking a couple of years to rebuild much of their team the Gryphons squad is as strong as ever and with talents like Tim Harris and Matt Fowler producing on a regular basis there’s a lot of optimism to see a berth at the 2012 provincials later this year. But still, Barralon said, the Gryphons need to tighten up their game if they hope to see zone championships and provincials anytime soon.

“I think we definitely have to work on our passing,” he said. “Make sure we calm down and get back to being our team.” “Slow the game down and go back to basics if we have to.”

GATEWAY perspectives

BC will benefit In recent months, there’s been plenty of economic discussion surrounding our Gateway Project. As a British Columbian, you want to know: What’s in it for B.C.? From one British Columbian to another, I feel strongly that you’ve got every right to know. And a recent independent report makes it abundantly clear that Gateway will provide significant economic benefits for our province. The Canadian Energy Research Institute is an independent, notfor-profit research establishment, and it recently released a report on the economic impact of exporting our oil/resources to countries in Asia. In pretty clear terms, CERI’s calculations suggest that we will be Canada’s biggest beneficiary of the Northern Gateway pipeline through the next 25 years — in key categories such as gross domestic product (GDP) impact, employment impact, employee compensation, and tax revenue generation. According to the report, over the next quarter-century, construction and operation of the Northern Gateway pipeline itself will create an additional $8.9 billion in GDP

Join the conversation at

to the Canadian economy — with $4.7 billion of that amount, or 53 per cent, heading to B.C. Our province also stands to benefit the most in terms of employment impact, since 70,000 person-years of construction and operations employment will be created in British Columbia, compared to 37,000 for Alberta and 8,000 in Ontario. In addition, we would see 55 per cent of the total $5.1 billion in Canada-wide Northern Gateway employee compensation, or just under $2.9 billion. I’m proud of the economic value that Gateway will bring to Canada. I believe our province should receive its fair share. And as these reputable numbers clearly demonstrate, we will.

Moms gather to raise awareness Despite benefits breast feeding still a social issue By Jerome Turner Smithers/Interior News

Last Saturday, moms in Smithers and Hazelton took part in the World Breastfeeding Challenge (WBC) in an ongoing effort to raise awareness of the health benefits of a mother’s milk. One of those moms is Jennifer Matthews. “I knew it was a good thing to breast feed Grace,” she said. “The first five months were painful, but I persevered because of the benefits.” “One of its major purposes is to coat the infant’s gut lining with a protection and that protection helps the baby to absorb needed nutrition and get rid of waste,” Judi Calhoun, Hazelton’s Starting Smart program co-ordinator, said. An infant is less likely to develop allergies, intestinal problems or become obese when their own mothers feed them naturally. The colostrum or first milk is reported to have pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor (PSTI) which is very important, according to Judi Calhoun,. The delicate stage of a newborn’s digestive system needs a low fat, condensed,

small volume dose of immune system developers and growth regulators, which is all provided by first milk, according to Science Daily. Babies have three growth spurts in their first six weeks and if a mother is healthy there is no need to give a baby formula, Calhoun said. She added, misinformation is the most detrimental to preventing a new mother from breastfeeding and one of the most confusing times is during a growth spurt. “It’s really common for someone in the family, at that point, to say ‘you don’t have enough milk so switch to formula’,” Calhoun said. The World Health Organization lists infant formula as the last choice of nutrientattaining options to newborns behind: suckling their own mother, bottled breast milk from their own mother and another woman’s breast milk. Starting Smart is Hazeltonís source for information about the risks associated with feeding newborns formula and educating local professionals, such as nurses and community health workers, but the program also provides

a social atmosphere that is useful to new residents. Robyn Zazula and her husband, Chris, moved to Hazelton and Robyn was finding it hard to get out and meet people and Starting Smart was a perfect fit. “I donít have any family here and I wouldnít have left the house otherwise,” Zazula said, about using Starting Smart while she was pregnant over a year ago. Zazulaís daughter, Olivia, is eight months old and just beginning to eat solid food, due to some complications with food allergies, which Starting Smart helped to figure out. The WHO recommends a baby consume only a motherís milk for six months exclusively, then begin to introduce solid foods with no defined limit to halt breast feeding altogether. The Quintessence Foundation, a Vancouver based breastfeeding education group, began the WBC in 2001 with 701 total babies abreast in 30 Canadian sites, both Hazelton and Smithers among them. Nearly 3 million babies latched on around the world this year in five countries.

Community FAITH MATTERS Foresters celebrate with local students Main St. Christian Fellowship Rick Apperson 250.847.1059

By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News

Without question, forestry is an important component of the British Columbia and Canadian economy and landscape. “It’s the largest industry in B.C.,” forester with the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Bruce Hutchinson said. “That’s a good reason for it to be named the forest capital of Canada.” Last week, National Forest Week celebrated the forest industry across Canada as well as marking the 100th anniversary of the B.C. Forestry Service. The theme for this year’s national Forest Week was, Healthy Forests – Healthy Communities, chosen specifically to reflect on people and the communities they live in are connected to forests, Hutchinson explained. To that end, Hutchinson and other foresters of various stripes, including forest firefighters, tree planters and aboriginal foresters set up stations at the Bulkley Valley Nordic Centre where students from local schools could learn this and that about forests and the people that work in them. The week-long presentations were sponsored by the Wetzin’Kwa Community Forest

Corporation with contributions from local businesses including Summit Reforestation, Woodmere Nurseries and NewPro. Besides the various stations at the community forest, some students also took tours of the West Fraser sawmill, Hutchinson said. “When all is said and done, more than 700 students will have participated in our

program,” Hutchinson said. Although National Forest Week is over, elementary school students still have an opportunity to win a helicopter ride as part of a poster competition. “The best poster from each school wins a helicopter ride with Canadian Helicopter,” Hutchinson said. The deadline for the poster competition is Oct. 11.

Life is filled with incredible highs and discouraging lows. One moment we seem to be having the best day ever, but the next minute we can come crashing down to earth. The ups and downs of life are enough to give us emotional whiplash. This, to me, is why faith matters. I personally need the steadying influence that only Jesus Christ can offer. Jesus has this to say in Matthew 11:28, “Come to me, all who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest.” Who doesn’t crave rest? We run around to and fro, trying to get more and more done each day, yet it seems we never catch up. In fact, we seem to slip further behind. Everyone seems tired and exhausted and a day “off” seems to be more of a myth than a reality. In Psalm 46:10 we are encouraged to be still and know that He is God. How can we be still? Well, if we look at

the example of Jesus in the New Testament, we see that He would go away to the mountains. He would go off by Himself to pray and rest. I believe we need to intentionally retreat at times. It might mean going for a hike, a walk or a bike ride. We might need a stroll by the river, or just to lay down on the couch and veg! It is possible to prioritize rest. The second part of that Scripture is to know that He is God! To know something is to understand it with clarity and certainty. How do we know God? Scripture says, “Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.” (Psalm 34:8) Why not stop for a moment, read the Bible and pray to the Lord? Maybe you too will see that faith matters.

Community Muheim students and parents tip recycling scale By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News

Students at Muheim Memorial Elementary took recycling to heart last year, collecting 46,759 beverage containers. The feat earned the Smithers school an honourable mention and a fifth-place finish in Encorp Pacific (Canada)’s BC School Recycling Program. “It’s fantastic,” coorganizer of recycling at Muheim, Natasha Tessier said. Since the 2008 - 2009 school year, Muheim students have recycled 126,402 beverage containers. “Hats off to the work students, teachers and parents are doing to enhance environmental youth leadership in BC schools,” Sandy Sigmund, vicepresident development and CMO, Encorp Pacific (Canada), said in a press release. The money raised through the recycling program helps cover costs of various school projects, a breakfast program, a life skills program and tools for the school garden, Tessier said. The current funds are accumulating, for an as yet identified project. Tessier said, she and co-organizer Leslie Thomas, have no problem motivating students to participate. At the beginning of each year, older students in the school give a presentation at

a general assembly. The presentation shows the younger students what items can go in each of the recycling bins. Even parents get into the recycling act, bringing in their recycling receipts from home. “It’s just something we’ve done for years,” Tessier said. Schools across B.C. are encouraged to participate with the tools and resources for recycling provided by Encorp Pacific (Canada) BC School Recycling Program. The program, now in its 12th year has recycled more than 400 million containers and raised more than $2.4 million for participating schools. Nechako Valley secondary school in Vanderhoof finished in top spot in northern B.C. earning $4,450 from 68,110 recycled containers. As top recyclers in northern B.C., NVSS also received $1,000 from Encorp Pacific (Canada) for having the best score in their enrollment category. “They now have a total of $5,450.40 to go towards school activities and equipment purchases,” Sigmund said. As a federally incorporated not-forprofit stewardship corporation, Encorp Pacific (Canada) has as its core business the recycling of beverage containers to minimize the number of containers finding their way into landfills.

STUDENTS RUN FOR TERRY Last week, Students at Muheim Memorial elementary school took time out from school work to run and walk to raise funds for the Terry Fox Foundation. Clockwise from bottom, teacher Christian Gagnon leads his students around the schoolyard; Clara Pesch brought her water bottle just in case; Odin Vetsch and Elias Joseph encouraged each other through the run.

Beef cutters of Telkwa Telkwa BBQ’s heart and soul is in the beef. The beef cutters of the Telkwa BBQ are a rare breed, rooted in tradition these fine carvers and caretakers of the beef embody the heart and soul of what the Telkwa BBQ is all about. 40 years ago Geoffrey Hutchinson carved his first piece of beef, fresh out of the pit. Since then he’s seen countless Telkwa BBQ’s and carved hundreds of beef hips and still is as quick with the knife as he ever was. “I try to get the pieces down to five pounds each so they can cut it up a lot easier,” he said. Like everyone else, Hutchinson began by cutting smaller pieces and packing them into buns, down a long table like he was on a production line. Soon he worked his way up to lead carver. “Not a lot has changed over the

years, the pit has changed a bit that’s about it,” Hutchinson recalls. “I have a really good knife that I found years ago at a garage sale, and this is just about all I use it for.” Of course this could never be a one man show. Dale Giebrosn, the caretaker of the meat, and pit coordinator, makes sure everything runs smoothly. From the cleaning and preparation of the pit itself, to the chopping of logs for the fire and the marinading of the beef, Giebrosn is the man you want to talk to when the beef is ready to go in. “Even though I’ve been doing this for 8 years, I was very proud to be helping prepare the beef for the 100th anniversary,” Giebrosn said. Lake many of the BV Kinsmen, Giebrosn volunteered to do the job and he does it well. Just as the sun

was going down, with George Canyon about to step into the limelight, Giebrosn and his fellow Kinsmen gathered around a picnic table keeping close watch on the fire that would burn straight through the night, cooking what is arguably the best beef ever. “There’s nothing really special about it, some dry mustard,

to up the bar a little bit.” The dedication to making the Telkwa BBQ a success is easy to understand when you hang around the beef pit long enough. These guys are serious about their meat, and no matter how many years go by, how many hips go in and come out, they still take pride in making it the best

beef-on-a-bun anyone has ever had. “I actually started carving meat here 42 years ago and I’ve only missed two years in the last 40,” Hutchinson explained. “I cut for the buns for a while, I don’t know why but eventually I managed to make my way to this table and I very much enjoy it every year.”

Radio and books for me - never mind TV

T

oday I paid my satellite TV bill. What did I get for my money? Not much I tell you. I know there are those of you who will tell me about the shows you watch on TV. The Emmy awards have come and gone and they had great praise for certain shows. I have to tell you I didn’t watch the Emmy awards. When I heard about the shows and actors who walked away with some kind of trophy I realized I hadn’t seen any of the most popular shows. More often than not I didn’t even know who the actors were. Are you like that? This is the time of

the year little snippets of the new shows are given to entice us to flop in front of the TV and enjoy. I would think they would want to show the very best. Am I wrong?

Does it seem just silly stuff comes my way ? I suppose I could take the time to watch more TV so I could be up on all the wonderful things that are happening. For instance all those reality shows and talk shows should make my life much better. If the truth be known, I don’t have the time or the inclination to watch much TV. I usually find a show I might like and watch a bit of TV after 9 p.m. Don’t have to watch for long as I’ll most often fall asleep. That’s OK since they repeat programs so often that I’ll catch the ending one day. I don’t like shows

with commercials so my choices are limited to classic movies, PBS, Knowledge Network and a few others. Of course one of the best things I get is radio. Many radio stations are there for me to listen to. Most are commercial free. If you were to ask me about my feelings about TV I will go with what I am told. Content and language may offend viewers, of course I’m offended for all the wrong reasons. Thank goodness I like the political scene around the world. I get all the drama I need.

Eric Walters makes a visit Smithers’ schools By Dan Mesec Smithers / Interior News

Eric Walters, the acclaimed Canadian author paid a visit to several of Smithers’ schools last week during his northwest B.C. tour. He talked to students about his award winning books and helping to celebrate the 31st Terry Fox Run. Speaking about the universal message of kindness and responsibility that his books hold and that of his foundations, Walters spoke to leadership students at SSS about what they can do to make their voice heard. “I think the most important thing he said was to be educated, informed and ask questions,” Youth For a Better World member Artica Cunningham said. “You can make a difference no matter how much you give.” “He mentioned the 45 kids they have at his orphanage in Kenya, there are only 45 children but the difference they’re

making in the lives of those 45 children is incredible. “So I think it was inspirational on how to be more focused with our goals here.” Walters has written over 80 novels over the past 20 years after realizing his grade 5 students were reluctant to read and write. Walters started writing novels that dealt with subjects his students could relate to, attempting to encourage them to do the same. Soon Walters became one of the biggest children’s literary names in country. He’s also the founder of numerous foundations including the Creation of Hope, an organization that cares for orphans in Kenya and the National School Run Day program where all schools across Canada participate in the Terry Fox Run simultaneously. Still speaking to students is Walters first joy. Talking to students at SSS, Walters echoed the

message often seen in his books, to help others in need. “I have so much faith in young people,” he said. “These kids have an awareness that they should be trying to do something.” “What I want them to do is be aware consumers of trying to do something not just randomly trying to help.” Walters explained the idea of being informed advocates, knowing where you help and money is going. Not only to look nationally and internationally about what you can do but also looking at what you can do in your own backyard and after speaking with the leadership students at SSS, Walters left with even more faith in the students here in Smithers. “I’ve seen this mentality blossoming in schools across North America, I think there is something different happening in this generation,” Walters said.

“These kids believe social justice matters, they’re much better informed than we ever were and they’re much better global citizens than we ever were.” Telling stories of his adventures that always seem to show the triumphs in life,

St. Joe’s Elementary students were hanging on to his every word. Asking questions about his books and how they can tell their own stories, the message Walters brings to schools always seemed to revert back to the common

idea’s in most of his books. What can I do to bring about change? “I want these kids to be aware that they live in the greatest country on earth,” Walters said. “Not just my opinion, that’s fact.” “They have an

obligation to keep this country great and that’s by caring for their neighbors, working together being decent, honest bright consumers that are aware about what is around them and what they can do to keep their community great.”

Chaplin looks to expand smallest book ever By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News

Robert Chaplin, formerly of Smithers, is in the Guinness Book of Records. Unfortunately you can’t see what put him in the record book, but Chaplin wants to change that. Chaplin holds the record for producing the smallest book ever. The book, entitled Teeny Ted From Turnip Town measures a whopping 70 x 100 microns and is written on a silicone chip. The period at the end of this sentence measures about 610 microns. If you want to read

the 30-page book written by Robert’s brother Malcom, you need a scanning electron microscope. Chaplin created the book in 2007 with the help of a sophisticated focused ion beam in the Nano-Imaging Facility at Simon Fraser University. The text in the book is carved to a resolution of 42 nanometres, Chaplin said. “A nanometre is one millionth of a millimetre,” he said to express just how small a nanometre is. With the Guinness record tucked into his pocket, Chaplin now wants to share the book with the world. Chaplin, a graduate

of Smithers secondary school, launched a kickstarter campaign to raise funds to cover the cost of publishing a normal-sized version of the book. With four children’s books under his belt, Chaplin hopes his tiny book will see the bookshelves. Contributors to Chaplin’s kickstart campaign receive special rewards, including signed first-edition copies of Teeny Ted From Turnip Town, when the book is published. The kickstart campaign ends Oct. 17, 2012. For information visit www.kickstarter.com/ projects/721409234.

An excerpt from Teeny Ted From Turnip Town, page 22 reads, “Turnips turnips turnips, they’re a tasty treat for me, raw or cooked or even brewed into a cup of tea.” Contributed photo

Harrison nets Coast Capital award By Jerome Turner Hazelton/Interior News

Former Hazelton Secondary (HSS) student Alana Harrison earned a $2000 citizenship award from Coast Capital Savings (CCS) to put towards her post-secondary education at Ontario’s Guelph University. Harrison, now pursuing a degree in International development, managed to balance school work, community involvement and her social life, all of which caught the eyes of the CCS award judges. Community projects like helping the local food bank, volunteering in the Terry Fox Run and co-founding the Hazelton Secondary’s Social Justice Club were at the forefront of her many

activities, but it’s her steady participation in science fairs that weighed heavily in the decision, according to Harrison. “I always did a project involving the social sciences,” Harrison said. “My last couple of years I moved onto literary gestalts.” A literary gestalt is where a word has the first and last letters remain in place with the middle letters mixed. Harrison recorded factors that inhibited a readers ability to read once the letters were switched. Harrison was a leader in HSS from early on, while in grade 10 she coached the grade eight volleyball team. “I didn’t have time to play because of all the other things I was doing,” Harrison said.

“But, I thought coaching would be more fun.” Harrison participated in several science fairs over the years, but is most proud of her work with the HSS Social Justice Club (SJC). “I was able to accomplish many incredible things and realized I really could make a difference in the world,” she said. “The [SJC] allowed anyone with a cause to have an immediate support group and the means to take their campaigns to the next level.” Through the SJC, Harrison and others created workshops for teachers to present to their classes and a special-needs gardening project with the Senden Agricultural Resource Centre that gave students a plot of land to tend.

Progress? he Gitxsan Summit on October 17, 18 and 19 will be a good indicator if that is really the case, we can observe the reporting and the corporate activity on the 18. About Friday, I will visit the high school and local College to ask for a one page essay from Gitxsan students with these broad questions;

T

1)Who they are? 2)Information on background and family? 3)What they aspire to do in life? 4)What it means to be Gitxsan? 5)Why they are proud of their heritage? We are hoping that our local hero Carol Huynh will be a speaker at the Oct. 18th banquet where an Elders committee will have reviewed these essays and award 5 nice prizes.

based on the Delgamuukxw trial decision. We want to leave the Gitxsan Corporation as part of that legacy, where our next generation of leaders will have something positive to work with. There are so many broad principles we follow in wanting to remain “being Gitxsan”. As we move forward to make our operations more transparent and so forth, we will all be better for it. We wish everyone the best post Summit. Getting past rough sailing is what we all want, so lets all work towards that.

Early next week, I will put a call out to the Hazelton Secondary School and the Northwest Community College. We expect that there will be a healthy supply of activity in Gitxsan country and want to start to emanate a certain awareness of things to come. When it comes down to it, young people are what our economic future is all about. I welcome your comments on Just as those who went before us left a legacy this or any other article.

Any questions? Call the above or awilson@gitxsan.com

T HREE R IVERS R EPORT InteriorNEWS Hunger and literacy key for Harrison THE

AWARD from B1 “Many didn’t know the vegetables they saw packaged in the store originally came from the ground,” Harrison said. “The [SJC] gave me the opportunity to empower many community members to start their own campaigns.” Harrison’s main focus in the SJC was literacy, but it seems she is partial to ensuring those needing food get enough to eat.

A program called Trick or Eat, through the Hazelton’s Salvation Army Food Bank, provides non-perishable goods by going door-to-door asking for donations, which Harrison enjoyed immensely. “It’s ridiculous amounts of fun,” Harrison said, but it was just one of several food gathering endeavors. Through the SJC she helped with food drives and HSS competitions, where groups would compete to raise collect the most food.

Now at Guelph, Harrison remains active in social justice events. Last week she participated in the campuswide Take Back the Night. “We marched to city hall to bring light to sexual assault,” she said. Harrison is currently looking for more opportunities to be part of her new surroundings at Guelph University and although she knows what got her there, she doesn’t

know where she’ll end up. As part of her degree Harrison has to take a year in a foreign country and she hopes to work in a place like Ecuador or Peru, but that is a long way down the road, she said. “Everything I was inspired to do through the [SJC] is what got me the award,” Harrison said. “So many people helped get me started and carry out my goals and a lot of the thanks goes to them.”

Bulkley Valley

Red Apple fills void By Jerome Turner Hazelton/Interior News

After six weeks of preparation, the Red Apple opened its doors officially on Sept. 14 at the grand opening in New Hazelton, but customers have lined the aisles since the Sept. 7 soft opening. Twelve locations across Canada opened Sept. 14 including Gimli, Manitoba. The Hazelton store is part of a chain that is a branch of The Bargain! Shop (TB!S) franchise To ease the transition Ed Olson, manager of The Bargain! Shop in Smithers, was called upon. “I started at 8 a.m. yesterday and finalized the needed paperwork at around midnight,” Olson said from the new store on opening day. “Then I crashed out, got back up and came here to finish prep.” The Red Apple is located where Fields used to be and the transformation from Aug. 1, when the Red Apple set-up began, to opening day was arduous, according to

I love working here because I’ve never worked in a place that sells clothing before. Ange Harris, Red Apple Employee

Olson. “There was nothing in here when we took possession,” Olson said. “We brought in our own counters, products and food and were ready in six weeks.” During set-up staff became familiarized with the new systems, as some had worked at Fields. “All new employees must read our training manual, learn cashier responsibilities and skills and customer service expectations of Red Apple,” Olson said. “Mostly, we use the lead by example model.” Some employees were tasked with going to TB!S in Smithers to see exactly how their recent training was applied in a functioning store,

one was new clerk Ange Harris, who previously worked at Gitanmaax Food and Fuel. “I love working here because I’ve never worked in a place that sells clothing before,” said Harris. “I learned a lot during the training.” The training is paying off, according to Olson. “They’re all catching on quickly and I can’t see any signs they’ll have difficulty in the future,” Olson said. The Red Apple is part of a long history of Canadianowned success that began in 1993, when its originator, Woolworth’s, changed over 100 stores with

its namesake to TB!S. As of Sept. 14 there are 12 Red Apple retailers in Canada with nearly two dozen more opening by the end of September. Dave Johnson, district supervisor with TB!S, was at the Hazelton Red Apple during its grand opening and had no complaints, Olson said. “He was very pleased with the staff and appreciated all the work that went into getting this store operational,” Olson explained. Customers seem thrilled as well. “It’s awesome,” Wendy Davis, Gitanmaax Band office education department, said. “I really like the variety.” The Red Apple store is located behind the Bulkley Valley Credit union. Store hours are 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday; 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays. For more information call 250842-5310.

Spartans work for the future By Jerome Turner Hazelton/Interior News

The Hazelton secondary school Spartans senior boys soccer team is building for the future with every game and there is a bright future in store for them and growing pains like last Saturdays 8-1 loss to Smithers. It’s all part of the process, according to head coach Simon Dodd. At a tournament last weekend two teams backed out last minute, leaving the Spartans to play the Smithers secondary school Gryphons, the strongest team in the zone. “That last game isn’t an indication of what our team can do,” Dodd said. “We played Bulkley Valley on Thursday and beat them 3-1.” The Bulkley Valley Christian School (BVCS) is the only other team in the Spartans’ A-division this year. The team played much more as a unit against BVCS,

according to Dodd, and one of the bright spots was goalkeeper Sean Wilson. “Sean made some nice stops and kept us competitive,” Dodd said. Jarret Denny, a defender on the team, can see the value of a game like last Saturdays’. “We’re getting time to improve,” Denny said. “That’s one of the reasons why I wanted to play soccer.” Saturday’s game was a contested match, despite the score, says coach Dodd. Smithers capitalized on nearly every one of their scoring opportunities and the half-time score was 5-0. Dodd gave his team some direction. “There’s no reason to hang your heads, boys,” he said. “We need to play with heart to the end, now let’s see if we can create a goal.” Near the end of the game that is exactly what happened. From 25 yards out Sean Howard lobbed a high-arching shot that crossed the sun and fooled the Smithers goalie.

Thirty players, from all grades continue to attend practices for the Spartans and the junior team is looking good, according to Dodd. “There are so many players coming to practice that our guys will get better at a steady rate,” he said. “We have a junior game against Smithers at home Wednesday and we hope to do well.” If the Spartans were to advance to provincials this year they would have difficulty raising enough money to go to the year-end tournament. Nonetheless Dodd is focusing on the basics. “This year will be generally skill development,” Dodd said. “The team is genuinely disappointed, but it is a funding problem at this point.” Win or lose, provincials or not, Dodd has one goal for the season. “To me this year is not about winning or losing,” he said. “It’s getting these kids some games and the opportunity to progress.”

HIV is a real concern within our communities. You can contract HIV primarily through unprotected sex and by sharing needles. HIV can live in your body for years without you knowing and all the while you can be passing it to others. At least 25 per cent of people who are HIV+ do not know and these 25 per cent are estimated to be responsible for 75 per cent of new infections. Northern Health, in collaboration with its community partners, is working with the Province of BC to prevent the spread of HIV by expanding HIV testing, treatment, and support services to British Columbians.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mary Isla Anderson. Isla passed away peacefully on September 22, 2012 in Vancouver with her family by her side after a short illness. Isla is survived by her loving husband of 44 years Jim and sons John and Robin (Charleen) Anderson, sister Norma Egar, Niece Shelley (Bob), Nephew Kevin (Shannon). Isla also has 4 grandchildren that she cherished – Lyric, Shelby, Gavin and Brooke. Isla was born in Maidstone, Saskatchewan on February 6, 1947 and moved to Smithers in 1965. Isla began working as a flagperson when she first came to town and in 1966 she became a hairdresser and worked at Clip & Curl Hair Salon for many years. On July 20, 1987 Isla began working at the Bulkley Lodge as a Care Worker until she retired in August of this year. She extended her compassion and huge heart to her work and touched all the residents in her care. Isla will be fondly remembered as a caring wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, niece and friend. She was a great cook and loved to entertain with family and friends. Isla will be greatly missed by all who loved her. Through her laughs, tears and celebrations, she was a loyal and loving friend. Isla was instrumental in the fundraising for the Smithers Golf Course clubhouse that opened in 1991 and the family is asking that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Isla Anderson Memorial account at the Bulkley Valley Credit Union in Smithers. The money donated will be used to purchase a bench in honour of Isla’s contributions to the club. As per Isla’s wishes, there will not be a service. The family would like to thank everyone for their love and support during this difficult time. Letter from Heaven When tomorrow starts without me, and I’m not here to see, if the sun should rise and find your eyes, filled with tears for me. I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, the way you did today, while thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say. I know how much you love me, as much as I love you, and each time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too. When tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart, for every time you think of me, I’m right there in your heart

Three Rivers Report FIELD OF PLENTY

Off the Wire

This trio of bears, a sow and her two cubs have been frequent visitors to a field west of the airport as they prepare for winter. Percy N. Hébert photo

New law allows province to sell seized goods A new law came into force today that blocks yet another avenue for criminals to profit from crime. The Criminal Asset Management Act - officially in effect Sept. 30, 2012 -helps reduce the financial incentives associated with crime, deterring criminals and enhancing public safety in B.C. The law gives government the explicit authority to manage and dispose of property forfeited as a result of criminal prosecutions, or seized during an investigation in anticipation of forfeiture. Proceeds obtained from the forfeiture of assets that were used as instruments to commit crime or were proceeds of crime can be used to compensate eligible victims and to help communities through the funding of crime prevention and remediation projects. The Criminal Asset Management Act dovetails with the B.C. government’s justice reform agenda. The new law enables prosecutors to pursue criminal forfeiture more frequently, as it allows for more effective management of assets that are restrained, seized or forfeited under the Criminal Code and other criminal statutes.
