Province forgives Shames’ debt THE LARGEST financial obstacle to My Mountain Co-op’s purchase of the Shames Mountain ski facility has been removed. The provincial government late last week approved two measures to deal with hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt and interest owed to it by the facility’s current owner, the Shames Mountain Ski Corporation, and by the co-op. The largest amount is debt totaling $429,010.97 plus interest for a tourism development loan taken out by the ski corporation in 1988. A proposal made by Shames Mountain to pay $125,000 for a full settlement of the loan and interest has been accepted by the province. Shames Mountain must pay the money

by Dec. 31, 2012 for the province to forgive $304,010.97 in debt plus interest. A further $130,000 that wasn’t paid by Shames Mountain Ski Corporation in royalties for the use of Shames Mountain itself will be dealt with by a combination of forgiveness and debt restructuring. The province will forgive the interest portion of the royalty debt which is $46,767 and the co-op has agreed to pay the remaining $88,579 spread out over the next 10 years. Royalties paid by ski facility owners to the provincial government amount to two per cent of chairlift revenues each year as a form of rent to use the land on which the facility operates. Shames Mountain and the co-op struck a sales deal last year in which the co-op took

on responsibility for the unpaid royalties. But the overall sales deal could not be completed until the debt owed to the province had been dealt with. The co-op operated the mountain last year under a lease deal with the ski corporation, and was prepared to do the same this season. News of the financial deal came out at the co-op’s Nov. 26 annual general meeting. Provincial forests and natural resources minister Steve Thomson, the minister responsible for Crown land, said the deal enables the co-op to buy the ski hill assets, allowing it to offer a recreational outlet for the region. “We are satisfied they have the ability to make this work.” said Thomson of the co-

op. “They lined up corporate sponsors and they’re using their own resources and ideas.” He said the province agreeing to forgive interest and write off a portion of the decades-old tourism development loan was the only realistic option it could make given the alternative. “If the purchase agreement didn’t go through, the ski corporation would have gone into bankruptcy. There would be jobs lost and an impact on the community,” said Thomson. The province would have ended up with the ski hill assets in its possession and would have to face any and all costs associated with their disposal, he said.

Sawmill buys power line logs

RECENTLY-REOPENED Skeena Sawmills says it wants to buy all of the trees it can from those that have been cut down to make room for BC Hydro’s Northwest Transmission Line. The mill took delivery Nov. 22 of 14 truckloads of logs, purchased from the Kitsumkalum First Nation’s Kalum Ventures forestry arm which has the contract to clear 68 kilometres of the 344km power line right-of-way from BC Hydro’s Skeena Substation just south of Terrace to Bob Quinn on Hwy37 North. “We’d love to have access to that wood, we can use more wood,” said Gian Sandhu, who consults for Skeena Sawmills owner Roc Holdings Ltd., about wood that will be cut along the route farther north. “Our people have been talking to First Nations bands,” said Sandhu about getting more NTL right-of-way logs for the mill. “They’re continuing to negotiate.” Skeena Sawmills opened its doors Nov. 5, starting by running one full shift of workers. It wants to get the mill up to two shifts but that would require an additional 450,000 cubic metres of wood, LAuren Benn PHOTO according to Sandhu. Skeena Sawmill’s log buyer, Brendan Wilson says he is speaking with First Nations further north Skeena Sawmills, which does who have clearing contracts along BC Hydro’s Northwest Transmission Line. have markets for what it can pro-

duce, has for months been saying that a shortage of logs is one of its biggest challenges. Last week, it shipped its first order. Save for specific work such as chipping, the sawmill has been closed since the fall of 2007 and the sale to Roc Holdings of the equipment and wood licences was welcomed in the area. Sandhu said the potential to use much of the 490,000 cubic metres of wood being logged off for the transmission line right of way is attractive. Mill log buyer Brendan Wilson is now speaking with First Nations further north who have clearing contracts. He said that because Skeena Sawmills opened in late fall, much of the Kitsumkalum wood had already been accounted for. “If Skeena Sawmills wasn’t around we would have probably shipped that wood down to Prince Rupert like we have with everything else,” said Lyle Bolton of Kalum Ventures of the purchase and delivery made last week. “All the saw logs and the pulp logs have been separated,” Bolton said. “All that is getting burned … (are) tree tops and brush.”

Shames’ directors to pay $125,000 settlement to province Still, Thomson said forgiving debt and interest should not be taken as a sign that other entities who owe money to the province can expect the same kind of treatment. “This only forgives the interest. The [ski] corporation has agreed to a settlement amount and the co-op

has a repayment plan,” he said. Shames Mountain Ski Corporation president Gerry Martin said the corporation has no assets and that he and its five directors will pay the $125,000 from their own pockets. “All of the paperwork’s been

done and the approvals have been given. We’re just waiting for the [Order in Council] to be done,” he said. An Order in Council is a document signed by cabinet ministers authorizing a specific action or activity.

Shames Mountain Ski Corporation has for years been looking for new owners for the facility located off of Hwy16 west of Terrace. Citing continuing losses and the desire of board members, after more than 20 years of operating the facility, to retire, the corpora-

tion had been contemplating closure. That prompted the formation of Friends of Shames to investigate ownership alternatives, resulting in the formation of the non-profit entity My Recreational Mountain Co-op last year.

Sawmill buys hydro line logs BC Hydro has been under fire recently for allowing large amounts of wood to be burned along the right-of-way of its $561 million project to deliver dependable power up Hwy 37 North. Critics have said the wood should more properly be used in sawmills and other wood-processing facilities. BC Hydro has deflected the criticism, saying that it signed contracts with First Nations along the route to handle all aspects of tree clearing. One of the factors that has been cited as affecting moving wood is the high cost of transportation from where it is cut to where it could be processed. “Nobody wants to move the wood at a loss,” said local forester Rick Brouwer. But he noted that the highest cost of northwestern logging is actually getting into the forest. “It’s a sunk cost already,” said Brouwer of money spent falling trees, meaning that it would have been spent regardless. In economic terms, it needn’t be factored into the sale price of a log, he added.

Area loses oldest vet of Second World War

Wednesday, November 28, 2012

THE CITY’S oldest veteran passed away suddenly last week. Otto Lindstrom, 96, died in Mills Memorial Hospital Nov. 23. Longtime friend and legion member Charlie Meek said Lindstrom was in hospital for a few days as he wasn’t feeling well and Meek would visit him two or three times a day. “It was quite a shock,” said Meek about Lindstrom’s death. “He was a real darling I can assure you. I’m just heartbroken, I really am.” Lindstrom was well-known and wellrespected at Branch 13 of the Royal Canadian Legion here, said Meek. He said Lindstrom would phone him up and they’d go for coffee. Lindstrom was born in Prince Rupert and grew up on the family’s homestead at Remo. He walked to school, which was Kalum

School. His first job came at 10-years-old: going out with his father to work in the bush skidding cedar poles. In 1938, during the late, lean years of the Depression, Lindstrom jumped a boxcar bound for a construction job in Prince Rupert building Fort Barrett. There was a catch; you had to join the army. He was 22. When war was declared the following year, he stayed in the army. Nobody knew the war would take so long. “We were going to go over and blow the Germans away in 24 hours and pack it up and go home,” Lindstrom said in an interview in 2004. “Five years, six years later, we finally did the job.” Lindstrom was initially stationed at Manitoba’s Camp Shiloh as an artillery instructor. In early 1942, he was drafted to an artillery

training centre in Aldershot, England. He was 25 or so – practically an old man compared to the teenaged recruits he taught. He exchanged the relative calm of England for the sun and dust, rain and mud of Italy. Italy is called The Forgotten Campaign because it’s overshadowed by Normandy, even though it held 20 German divisions at bay as the Allies stormed the beaches in France. “We are classed as a forgotten army – period,” Lindstrom said without self-pity in 2004. “Our attitude as far as accomplishment is concerned, if it hadn’t been for the army in Italy, D-Day would have failed.” In Italy, Lindstrom was a mechanic and driver, doing forward observation with his commanding officer. In 1945, the Canadians in Italy joined the

Allied forces in northwest Europe. Lindstrom’s regiment ended up in Belgium for a rest and new equipment. Then they took part in the liberation of Holland, where Canadian troops were to open up a supply route. Lindstrom finally returned home in 1946. His occupations included everything from lighthouse keeping to working at the airport.

He maintained his trapline for more than 75 years. He met his wife, Fran, at Ma Lambly’s Cafe in 1948 when Fran came to town to work at the old Red Cross Hospital. They were married in 1949. Even though Lindstrom travelled the world, he said he never found any place better than Terrace.

Moly mine approval decision approaching THE PROVINCIAL cabinet ministers who will either say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to a $850 million molybdenum mine northwest of here should be in a position to do so just before Christmas. That’s when energy, mines and natural gas minister Rich Coleman and environment minister Terry Lake are scheduled to receive the results of a review of Avanti Mining’s plans for an open pit operation at Kitsault, approximately 200 kilometres by road from Terrace. Avanti filed its plans with the BC Environmental Assessment Office at the end of April, starting a review of thousands of pages of information for a mine project that would deliver hundreds of jobs for approximately 20 years. The review was to last 180 days until the

end of October but was extended for three weeks to give officials more time. A preliminary assessment report from the review is then to be examined by Avanti, government officials and First Nations before a final document is prepared. It’s this document that goes to the two cabinet ministers who then have 45 days to make a decision. That final assessment should be ready before Dec. 21, Avanti said in a press release last week. Company officials earlier said they are confident the mine project will be approved. Avanti has so far spent $70 million on the Kitsault project, including approximately $15 million on environmental studies. Also underway is a federal review which Avanti estimates will be finished within two

months of the provincial one. A decision by the federal environment minister would follow within three months, Avanti added. Molybdenum has a number of uses, including as a hardening agent in steel alloys. Avanti officials earlier said they had focussed on preserving water quality at the mine location. Access to Kitsault from Terrace runs through the Nass Valley and while the mine location is not within the Nisga’a Nation lands that are part of the Nisga’a Final Agreement land claims treaty, it is within traditional Nisga’a territory. In its filings, Avanti outline plans for local training and hiring a construction workforce and then an operating workforce. Avanti plans to truck out its ore concentrate using the east-west Cranberry Connec-

tor route that runs approximately 30km from the Nass Valley to Hwy37 north of Kitwanga. From there trucks will continue south to Hwy16 and then to Vancouver where the concentrate will be loaded onto freighters for delivery overseas. The Cranberry is designated as a forest service road and is not a highway and is not normally maintained during the winter. Avanti would maintain the road meaning it could also be used by others. While Avanti has been pursuing environmental approval for its project, it has also been lining up financing. That includes a preliminary deal to borrow money from a financial subsidiary of Caterpillar to buy Caterpillar equipment and a similar deal with a German state-owned bank to buy German equipment.

Zombies strike back Canada’s largest military mutiny happened in Terrace By Kelsey Wiebe

T WAS, as described later, an “unusual parade” that formed in Terrace on the Saturday morning of Nov. 25, 1944. Waving banners proclaiming “Down with conscription”, and “The zombies strike back”, the soldiers refused regular duty and were instead reacting to news the government was going to send 16,000 Home Defence soldiers to Europe at a crucial stage of the Second World War. The conscripted Home Defence men were referred to sneeringly as “Zombies.” Borrowed from movies popular during the 1930s, the term suggested that conscripted men lacked the will of their own to volunteer for overseas duty. On the evening of Friday, Nov. 24, three battalions of these embittered soldiers stockpiled 50,000 rounds of rifle ammunition, 15,000 rounds of Sten gun ammunition, and four boxes of hand grenades. All that day they had angrily discussed the announcement of an overseas deployment. Most of the men in Terrace had not volunteered for military service. Rather, they had been conscripted into protecting Canada’s national borders as part of the Home Defence. In 1942, as reinforcements in Europe became increasingly urgent, a reluctant Prime Minister Mackenzie King implemented conscription. He maintained that these men would only be forced into compulsory service within Canada, which was a more palatable political option. When the news of the deployment broke on the radio, many of the soldiers in Terrace (and elsewhere) felt betrayed. They were restless and angry after months of fruitless training in an isolated community for the defence of a coast that they didn’t believe was in danger. According to military scholar Reginald Roy, Terrace was likely the most remote military camp of its size in Canada. Before the Second World War, the town itself numbered under 400 people, with several hundred more residing in the outlying areas. There were almost no amenities for the approximately 3000 soldiers and 3000

construction workers who flooded into the area in 1942. There was not enough fuel in the winter camps to keep warm, fresh food was extremely limited, and an enormous gender gap—perhaps 300 women to 6000 men— led to friction between soldiers and workers, especially during dances. “You wouldn’t sit out a dance even after spending your teen years as a wallflower,” recalled Mary Harris in a 1978 oral history. Because of all of these factors, the fear of being sent to Terrace was used to threaten soldiers into obedience. Those who were posted here were often miserable, adding to the anger exhibited on that Saturday morning of Nov. 25. Les Fusiliers du St. Laurent, a mainly French Canadian battalion stationed on the Birch Bench, “came charging down the hill, whooping and shouting like a swarm of angry wasps,” remembered Floyd Frank, who witnessed the parade while delivering milk. Frank noted that the men carried rifles and had filled the gas masks hanging around their necks with grenades. The well-organized men next marched toward what is now the Royal Canadian Legion, where they met with the Prince Edward Island Highlanders, a battalion camped at Riverside Park. Together, the group picked up more recruits at the Hall St. camp of the Prince Albert Volunteers. Several hundred soldiers marched in the two-hour-long parade. People gathered along the streets to watch. Some found it exciting. Others, especially those with family in the military, were furious: they saw the men as shirking their duty to protect their country. Mary Harris remembered that “a sweet little old lady” with several sons overseas “cussed them up one side and down the other.” Similarly disillusioned soldiers rioted over conscription in Vernon, Prince George, Courtenay, Chilliwack, Nanaimo, and Port Alberni. Though violence and injury occurred elsewhere, the Terrace protest was peaceful and remarkably orderly. In the report of the court of inquiry order afterward, Major-General George R.

Pearkes writes: “It is worthy of note that the discipline of the dissidents within their own ranks was well maintained and their parades and guards were well organized.” On Nov. 26, the Fusiliers – who were later charged with inciting the protest – composed a message to military officials explaining the protest. “The recruits are not in favour of conscription,” the telegram read. Given that “all danger of invasion on the Pacific Coast is passed,” in their opinion, they demanded to return, unmolested, to Quebec. They marched again, this time gathering more than over 1,600 supporters. Incidentally, many of the senior officers stationed in Terrace were in Vancouver for a conference about the conscription crisis when the protest broke out. The commander of the Mountain Warfare School, acting command of the brigade, instructed juniorranking officers not to do anything, unless the protest became violent. Very quickly, all non-commissioned officers were stripped of their ranks. “You’re Zombies, just like us,” the protesters jeered. Men who had been threatened and hackled by their officers in the hopes that they would eventually cave and volunteer for active service were again bullied, but this time by their fellow soldiers. “There [are] a number of boys that are definitely opposed to this sort of thing,” a war diarist for one of the regiments recorded, “but [they] are practically forced or threatened to tag along.” On Monday, Nov. 27, the troops still had not returned to regular duty. Protests elsewhere had long since wrapped up, but the Terrace movement gained momentum. Threats to blow up the Skeena Bridge (now known as the Old Bridge) circulated, and no one knew how everything would unfold. Many men, according to military records, were given drugs to calm their overextended nerves. An advance group of Prince Albert Volunteers attempted to leave Terrace by train, and were prevented from doing so at gunpoint. By Monday evening, senior officers had

arrived back in Terrace. The next morning, Nov. 28, one unit agreed to surrender their arms to a guard. Commanding officers threatened the men with the legal consequences of mutiny and sedition but failed to convince them to return to normal duty. The situation was officially declared a mutiny on Tuesday night, Nov. 29. Concerned about the ramifications of such a declaration, the Prime Minister belatedly organized media censorship. On the same evening, most of the mutineers gave up, apparently with little resolution of their issues or concerns. All of the rifles were relinquished – many with relief – and all of the pilfered ammunition was dumped in the Skeena River. By Sunday, Dec. 3, all three battalions had been shipped out of Terrace. While charges were laid, there was limited political will to follow through with them. Apparently, many men jumped off the train that was bringing them home to face charges, while their superior officers turned a blind eye. Charges were dropped for those mutineers who agreed to serve overseas. In the end, only a limited number of people were sentenced. For the most part, the government was happy to let the whole affair fade away quietly. “It all seems like a bad dream,” war diarist Lt. Col. Costin mused. Indeed, we know little, 68 years later, about the longest lasting mutiny in Canadian history. It transformed conscription – a predominantly political issue – into a cultural, economic, and ethical issue. It makes us think, once again, about Terrace’s place within Canada.

EDITORIAL

The big one FOLLOWING October’s earthquake, many cities in B.C. began talking about the Next Big One, an expected earthquake of such a size as to be devastating in its impact and after effects. City hall, however, has another version of the Next Big One brewing – the next big budget civic project. So far, it looks as if that’s to be the aquatic centre thanks to a report outlining a combination of serious deficiencies in the current structure and potential for recreational improvements. The cost? Northwards of $5 million. But that’s just an estimate. Yet for those keeping count, an extensive aquatic centre reno would make for two multi-million sportsassociated city projects in a row, the first being the addition of a second sheet of ice and other improvements to the main arena building. Granted, a rejuvenated aquatic centre would build on the provision of low-cost recreation – not everyone can afford to ski or skate. But wait. There are those in the cultural and arts community rightfully wondering when it might be their turn. The city, for instance, desperately requires a museum building. No one wants to throw out the baby with the bath water (or pool water, in this case). City council would be wise to draw up two aquatic centre to-do lists. One necessary for health and safety and the other of things that would be nice to have but aren’t necessary in order to have a proper debate about what to do next. ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

This cockroach could save your life

niffer dogs may soon be replaced by cockroaches as first responders searching for survivors in the rubble of earthquakes, tsunamis and tornadoes. The State University of Raleigh, North Carolina is testing Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches for searching crevices too confined for dogs. North Carolina State’s Electrical and Computer Engineering Department is saddling adult “Hissers” with electrical devices that look like backpacks. Each backpack includes a thin, rigid, printed circuit board with a micro controller, a wireless signal receiver, miniature plugs for connecting stimulation electrodes and a tiny lithium-ion polymer battery. “What we do is similar to riding a horse,” lead experimenter Alper Bozkurt says. “The cockroach walks naturally, and we simulate barriers by sending pulses to its antenna. They use their antenna as touch sensors, so stimulation on one side makes them think they are about to bump into a barrier, and directs these insects towards the opposite direction.” The greater the electri-

Pulses have to be strong enough to steer the insect without tasering their tissues until they become insensitive and no longer respond to gee or haw. As the insect beetles along a path, a tiny light on its rear end winks like the light under an aircraft’s wing. Bozkurt’s next step is to miniaturize the backpack even further and gain more precise control of movement. The goal is to outfit the insects to transmit audio or low grade video from their underground searches. I would wager one thing: If a disaster survivor – especial-

way. They prefer humid higher temperatures which makes them perfect for searching through the destruction left by tropical disasters. They have been featured in movies such as Bug, Damnation Alley, and Starship Troopers, according to Wikipedia, where their hissing sound makes them seem menacing. If North Carolina’s miniaturizing of the backpacks works out and experiments prove successful, the adoption of Hissers as a regular component of search and rescue could open a lucrative form of small animal husbandry. An empty fish tank smeared around the top with a four inch vaseline barrier, a nursery of cardboard egg cartons, a dish of ground dog food and another of water, and half a dozen Hissers including one female, and you could be in business. Manufacturing the teeny saddles could keep child labourers busy during lulls in electronics sales.

ly a survivor unable to move – suddenly finds himself face to face with a Hisser, amplified audio won’t be necessary for his scream to be clearly heard above ground. The researchers see remote-control cockroaches as an alternative to small-scale robots. Designing robots at that scale is very challenging and cockroaches are experts at navigating hostile environments, according to Bozkurt. The Hisser’s natural habitat is rotten logs; they eat decomposing vegetation and smaller insects; thus they would be able to feed themselves while spelunking in pitch black tangles of lumber and other wooden debris. Their nickname Hisser derives from the snake-like hissing sound adults make by expelling air through breathing openings in their thorax and abdomen. Males, primarily, hiss when disturbed, as a female luring mechanism, or to warn off other males encroaching on their harem or territory. Hisser cockroaches are sold in pet stores to feed iguanas and tarantulas. Wingless, they can’t fly. They stay calm, are easy to handle, and don’t bite or injure people in any

The Mail Bag Don’t give up our resources

Truly, a human’s best friend Dear Sir: Unless you’ve had it happen to you, you haven’t experienced the agony of suddenly having to give up your dog. It’s happening much more than people realize. In fact, it’s fast becoming a phenomena. Suddenly, you have to move — and just as suddenly there’s a problem with four legs and a wagging tail. It’s your dog. Many landlords today, renting and otherwise, do not want your beloved buddy. They don’t want noise, they don’t want someone’s head ripped off, or they don’t want ‘yellow sprinkles’ on their lawn.

And then you find out if someone wants your dog, they would like it ‘appraised’ by a Vet. The dog must have a clean bill of health for anything from rabies to distemper, clean teeth, and be unable to have puppies. The check-ups can cost up to $800. All you want is a good home for your dog, people who will love and care for it as you do. How do you find them, or vice versa? I found the best way is an ad in The Terrace Standard. I ran an ad and I’m still getting calls, mainly from lonely people who want a small companion they can fit into their purse.

Sometimes, fate can intervene like an act of God, even before you’ve watered the garden with tears. I’ll ever be grateful to a friend who thought she could find a home for our dog. She knew our pet could even sing like a wolf, gradually climbing to the top of an operatic scale. Before that, I had even considered entering our pal in a comedy show. She took the dog with her, and chanced to meet a wonderful couple with a farm. They didn’t have a dog, but they had a cat, lots of acreage, and some horses.

Dear Sir: It is hard to get excited about Enbridge’s controversial $6 billion dollar pipeline proposal in Northern British Columbia. Are a few short term jobs in the construction phase really worth the huge environmental impact for a life time? On the other hand, the large multinational energy companies and state-owned petroleum companies such as Chinas three oil enterprises (CNOOC), (CNPC), Petro-Chine, Norways Stanoil, Koreas KOGAS, Japans JACOS, and others that have invested heavily into Canada’s oil and gas industry, need this pipeline. Oddly, Alberta lobbied relentlessly to abandon Canadian Petro-Can’s Canadian oil investments, to do a complete turnaround, and sell their oil fields and tar sands to other countries and American oil companies. Clearly, there are too many foreign investors involved in Western Canada’s natural gas and heavy crude oil extractions. And, more foreign nations want in, because it has the potential to create many jobs back home by securing raw product for their huge refineries. To be blunt, countries become deeply in debt, such as Canada and Untied States, when they sell complete control of their oil and gas reserves to large companies or to, incredibly enough, other countries. The small oil and natural gas royalties are nothing compared to the huge amount of money to be made in selling and processing fossil fuels. Norway, for example, recently became the world’s richest country, and the country Russia, owns the largest oil company in the world, by simply keeping ownership of their undeveloped oil that everyone wants. Ottawa is finally stepping in to stop the free for all, and probably the priciest law in Canada’s political history was the abolition of the Foreign Investment Review Agency 25 years ago.

Government spending drives up deficit

anada’s credibility as a money manager took a beating recently when federal finance minister Jim Flaherty cried poor and forecast four years of bigger-than-expected deficits, with no balanced budget until the 2016-17 fiscal year. It took another pounding three days later when the Prime Minister announced he intends to balance the budget before the next election. If the election goes ahead as planned in May 2015, Stephen Harper is basically saying he intends to balance the books by the end of the 2014-15 fiscal year. This is two years sooner than his finance minister expects and the same year Flaherty is forecasting a deficit of $8.6 billion. “These things aren’t written in stone,” Flaherty explained to Bloomberg News. “The numbers will change.” Certainly Flaherty’s balanced-budget target isn’t set in stone: it’s been moved from next year to 2015 and now to 2017. And if the date’s not set in stone, Flaherty’s actual deficit

forecast is set in quicksand: from a modest shortfall of $300 million in 2015, predicted in the June budget right after last year’s election, to the gaping $8.6 billion hole revealed in mid-November. The only number that is set in stone is $124.5 billion – the amount Flaherty has added to the federal debt in the last four years. And if the minister and the finance department are to be believed, that number will balloon to $177.4 billion by 2017. The Prime Minister inexplicably blamed a shortfall in taxation. He told reporters “revenue is obviously somewhat down in recent months because of the recent slowing of the global economy.” And the PM’s analysis has echoed around the globe: “sinking federal revenues,” “global economic weakness that has cut into tax revenues,” “lower tax revenues for Ottawa,” “falling revenues slowing deficit reduction” – you get the picture. Those darned inadequate tax revenues. When tax revenues plunge unexpectedly – as they did in 2008 and 2009 – fiscal trouble follows:

g u e s t c o mm e n t GREGORY THOMAS government needs to make payroll, mail out Old Age Security cheques, keep the navy afloat and cover the interest payments on our massive debt. Federal revenue fell $6.4 billion in 2008 and $14.5 billion in 2009. With not enough surplus to cushion the fall and rising spending, Ottawa’s deficit in just those two years ballooned to $61.3 billion. But here’s the problem with

Mr. Harper’s story: revenues jumped $18.5 billion in 2010 and $8.1 billion last year, hitting a record of $245.2 billion. And in recent months? Revenues have continued to rise, up $3.4 billion in just the five months between April and August of 2012. Income taxes? Up. Business taxes? Up. GST? Gas taxes? Employment Insurance taxes? Excise taxes? Up, up, up and up. So if revenues are going up and not going down, why is the deficit going up and not going down? The answer, of course, is that spending is skyrocketing. The same week that Jim Flaherty was raising his deficit forecast, Conservative MPs were fanning out across Canada, handing out cheques with that borrowed money: money to pay for new snowmobile trail grooming equipment, new municipal tennis courts and curling rinks, money for corporate welfare for a gluten-free bakery and money to support Canada’s pet-food industry. In fact, if Jim Flaherty’s newest fiscal forecast turns out to be correct, federal revenues will

shatter last year’s record and set a new one of $254.4 billion this year. If Ottawa had simply managed to freeze spending where it was before the financial meltdown in 2008, instead of embarking on a massive spending spree, we would be sitting on a $25 billion surplus this year, not bracing for a $27.2 billion deficit. No cuts, no layoffs, no austerity measures: just a request to forego annual increases in wages, benefits and pension entitlements, a pause in the growth of the porkbarreling and the corporate handouts, until Canadians and the Canadian economy could get on their feet again. It’s time for the Prime Minister and his finance minister to stop searching for lost revenue and do some soul-searching instead. Gregory Thomas is a director with the Canadian Taxpayers Federation which describes itself as “a federally incorporated, not-for-profit citizen’s group dedicated to lower taxes, less waste and accountable government.” He lives in Ontario.

Pipeline holds no appeal to voters within B.C. Apparently, British Columbia’s biggest reward from Enbridge’s pipeline might come from media mogul Dave Black’s multi-billion dollar Northern Gateway refinery proposal on the West Coast just north of Kitimat. Black has no oil experience, no personal money, and no investors. However, he nevertheless, still wants to build a very expensive plant worth at least $13 billion. It would compete in a highly competitive oil

refinery industry, far away from any oil industrial hub. Black’s refinery will be competing against the richest countries and companies in the world is unbelievable to put it politely. As for Enbridge’s proposal obviously this pipeline is far more important to Alberta, foreign nations, oil companies, than to the vast majority of British Columbia voters.

Dear Sir: Upon waking to the news one recent Tuesday morning I heard a story being reported that really makes me question the level of intelligence we have walking among us. The person being quoted was amongst a group of protestors in Hazelton that were upset with the conduct of the RCMP with one of their friends when she was out in the community while publicly

intoxicated. Her complaint was the “unacceptable and unaccountable” behaviour of the RCMP officer. I would like to offer this incensed person some good sound accountable and acceptable advice they can pass on to the rest of their friends. And that is, when you are intoxicated, stay home.

College getting $3M to bolster trades NORTHWEST COMMUNITY College is getting $3 million to help revive its various trades training programs. The money was announced Nov. 20 at the college and is part of a province-wide $17 million trades training equipment purchase announcement made by the province earlier this year. A good portion of the $3 million will be spent on equipment to revive the college’s heavy duty mechanics program which was suspended this fall when student enrolment dropped because of the program’s outdated equipment. “We’re talking about some really big ticket items,” said provincial advanced education minister John Yap about what equipment will be purchased, including a bulldozer, grader and diesel engine trainer for the heavy duty mechanics program. Yap also said the college will take a lead role in trades training for the mining industry. “(It will) serve as a hub for

other mining schools in B.C.,” he said. The college already has a program in Smithers where students are trained to work on jobs connected to minerals exploration. “This is such a blessing for NWCC,” added college president Denise Henning, who thanked college staff who worked to secure the money. She also honoured recently deceased trades dean Margo Van der Touw for her work in developing the college’s trades program. Assurances were given at the Nov. 20 announcement that the heavy duty mechanics program will be offered once again next spring. This spring the college received a one-time $839,000 grant from the province for trades training. It will be using that money on a program intended to introduce trades to high school students. In late spring, the college also received $573,380 from the fed-

eral government to buy a series of heavy duty equipment operator simulators and a 32-foot trailer to take them around the region to offer training where and when needed. And this fall, the college began lobbying for $45 million for a new trades building. The emphasis on trades training at the college comes at a time when governments and industries are predicting the need for thousands of skilled employees to work on planned mines, liquefied natural gas plants, pipelines, electrical transmission lines and other projects in the region. Estimates place the number of needed skilled employees at more than 10,000. The trades emphasis also comes at a time when the college reduced its program offerings in other areas and laid off employees to deal with an operating deficit that was approaching $2 million at the end of the college’s 2011-2012 fiscal year.

Cal gets more gym storage STUDENTS, TEACHERS and employees at Caledonia Secondary School are going to have a little more room to manoeuvre thanks to a new storage container set to house gym equipment at the school. The Coast Mountains School District voted to buy a storage container after hearing that the need for one was not included when Grade 10 students were added to the Grade 11 and 12 school this fall. Extra gym equipment was sent over from Thornhill Junior Secondary School when the district closed it this spring, but there was no provision made to store it, said school district facilities director John Garossino. The container is 10’x20’ and will be purchased secondhand at a cost of $6,040 plus taxes. It is por-

table and can be removed if it is no longer needed. A new one would cost approximately 50 per cent more, according to the school board. The school bought a similar container, used to store small engines and equipment for the Grade 10 technology programs, this summer. Right now, gym equipment is spread out in different locations throughout the school, said Caledonia athletics director Keith Axelson. “We’ve got it stored in various places. Most of our big items are taking up space in the equipment room and in the hallways down by the change rooms,” he said. The upcoming purchase has good timing, coinciding with the opening of Cal’s new climbing gym, which happened Nov. 23.

Black continues refinery pursuit By Cameron Orr Kitimat Clean President David Black says the response to his Kitimat-based refinery proposal in Japan and China has been positive, while his critics in the oil sands have been growing more silent. Black, also the chairman of Black Press, the newspaper chain which owns The Terrace Standard and other northwestern B.C. newspapers, spent his Halloween, and the days after, travelling to Tokyo then to Beijing to pitch his refinery plan to about a dozen companies. Each company he spoke with has asked for more information, he said, while at least one is planning a trip to Canada in December to speak to him further. “It was all pretty positive. Everybody was interested, everybody wanted more information and not one of them said ‘well, no, we’re not interested.’,” said Black. In addition he said each company also inquired about their ability to potentially invest in the proposed refinery. Black said there is the opportunity for minority stakes but he would want to keep the company controlled in Canada. Black said he’s baffled by early critics to the plan who had suggested Asian markets did not want to import refined fuels.

David Black “I never understood that. That’s what [John] Horgan and others said. I never understood where they got that information from,” he said. “There’s a big market in refined fuel. In fact it was the single biggest export from the United States last year. They sold $88 billion in refined fuel.” While Black has plans to visit other countries, including Korea, he said Japan and China both have strong reasons for getting behind a Kitimat refinery. In China the reason is fairly straight-forward; they need more oil each year, said Black, and their option is to build their own refineries or get it from Canada. Getting it from us would be cheaper, Black argues, and better for the environment. China’s main source of power source for refineries would be burning coal. “So if they let us build a refinery instead, they don’t have the same pollution issue.”

Four reasons for a refinery

David Black’s four key points for why a Canadian facility could refine fuel cheaply: 1) The feed stock of oil to supply the refinery can be provided to a Kitimat refinery more cheaply than it would be for other countries requiring to import it. 2) It takes a lot of natural gas to run a refinery — it costs more than the labour, he said — and North America has a natural gas supply which is four to five times cheaper than in Asia. 3) The economies of scale work for a Kitimat refinery as it would be larger than anything that currently exists in China. 4) The cost to deliver refined fuel to Japan or China is far lower than shipping the crude product to a country.

The situation in Japan is a bit more unique. Black said that they’re actually at over capacity for refinery production, but the changing supply of oil means they have serious investments to make in the future. “The world is moving to heavier oil. The supplies of light oil have been going down about three per cent a year so more and more refineries are having to put in coking equipment so they can handle heavier oil,” he said. “In Japan’s case, they’re going to have to put a lot of money into their refineries… why not come over here, buy into a new Kitimat refinery, and bring the refined product back to Japan and land it there cheaper than they could produce it?” He also said Japan’s tight energy infrastructure could be loosened by shutting down some of their existing refineries, shifting their supply from a Kitimat refinery. “Sure enough there was a lot of interest [for that],” he said. Interest continued to grow, not just from

Asia. He said he had a recent meeting from a North American company interested in the refinery to supply diesel. Meanwhile he said the plan’s critics have for the most part been coming around. He noted criticism which said that the oil could just be refined off the Gulf of Mexico in Houston, Texas, but Black countered that a cost analysis showed that incorporating all the extra transport costs meant the product would cost an extra $20 per barrel. “They’re in the wrong ocean,” he said. Black plans to stick with Kitimat Clean as chairman for as long as it takes to get the job done properly and to ensure it’s environmentally sensitive, but doesn’t expect he’d be in charge long after the project comes to reality. “I wouldn’t think my time as chairman would be very long,” he said, pointing out that if it takes eight years he’ll be 74 when it’s done. But he does feel the time crunch to see the

project done. “I would rather there wasn’t too big a gap in time between when the refinery’s finished and the pipeline’s finished,” he said. “The quicker I

can get the refinery on stream the less pressure there will be to start shipping bitumen.” He does have ambitions to speak in other northwestern commu-

nies as he has done recently in Prince Rupert at a town hall-style meeting. Cameron Orr is the editor of The Northern Sentinel in Kitimat, B.C.

Museum seeks artifacts A SMALL museum at Cedarvale east of Terrace says CN won’t provide it with aboriginal artifacts found while adding sections of siding. Mary Dalen of the Meanskinisht Village Historical Association which runs the museum at Cedarvale says she understands material uncovered during track construction includes arrowheads, flint and cooking bowls. Cedarvale is located alongside of Hwy16 on the south side of the Skeena River, approximately 75km from Terrace, just across the river from the siding work on the north side of the river. Dalen said she and a son were even denied an opportunity to examine what had been found when they went to the construction site. “When we went there, they wouldn’t let us down to where the work was going on,” said Dalen. She said subsequent conversations with CN officials about the artifacts have proved fruitless. But CN deliver to the historical association what Dalen calls “boxes of twisted wires and metal” taken from the construction location. The four cardboard boxes also contain one insulator with Grand Trunk Pacific stamped on it, and other unmarked insulators. Grand Trunk Pacific, which finished the rail line to Prince Rupert in

Mary Dalen 1914, is the predecessor company to CN. Dalen says any item with Grand Trunk Pacific does have historical relevance but doesn’t make up for not receiving any aboriginal artifacts. “They’ve promised us a showcase for this material but we haven’t seen that either,” Dalen adds. She’s now worried about rumours the artifacts may instead be headed for the Ksan Historical Village and Museum in Hazelton or to the Museum of Northern BC in Prince Rupert. Dalen’s connection to the artifacts CN found during track construction goes deeper than simply wanting them placed in the Meanskinisht museum. Dalen’s Gitxsan fore bearers, living at a place called Gitlusec, were among to the first to greet Robert Tomlinson, an Irish doctor and missionary, when he arrived in 1888 to establish a Christian village there. Tomlinson called it

Meanskinisht (translated as “under the pitch pines”) and buildings were erected on both sides of the Skeena. First Tomlinson and then his son, Robert Tomlinson Jr., took up land grants on both sides of the Skeena River. The land was first leased and then some parcels were sold to aboriginal people, including Dalen’s family members, she says. Since CN’s project is going through some of the land first taken up by the Tomlinsons and then leased and sold to Gitxsan people living in the area, Dalen says there’s a strong connection to the artifacts the company found. “These are artifacts which are part of our history,” said Dahlen. She said buying leased land from the Tomlinsons was one way of establishing aboriginal title at a time of settlement when aboriginal title wasn’t being respected elsewhere. Still, Dalen notes, it amounted to “having to pay for the land we [already] lived on.” CN’s siding project is part of a multi-million construction project aimed at improving its ability to move goods and freight to and from the expanding port at Prince Rupert and at other facilities near that coastal city. The artifacts are being evaluated by archaeologists. The community of Meanskinisht, which at one time consisted

of homes, churches, a school and a sawmill, no longer exists as an entity. The name was replaced by Cedarvale, chosen when a post office was placed beside

the rail tracks on the north side of the river. Today Cedarvale is accepted to be the small settlement on the south side of the Skeena alongside Highway 16.

Community news your way.

CN says it has artifacts agreement in place WHILE CN may not be willing to provide aboriginal artifacts found during construction work this year to a local museum that’s asked for them, it says it does have an agreement to safely house them. That agreement, says CN official Warren Chandler, is with a Gitxsan chief from the area called Arthur Matthews. When CN began planning to extend its sidings in the Cedarvale area, it contacted Gitxsan authorities and established that Matthews was the right chief based on traditional clan territory, said Chandler.

“It was well-defined that this was the clan territory for Arthur Matthews,” he said. “The agreement calls for the artifacts to be housed in a facility that’s owned and managed by the Gitxsan chiefs,” Chandler added. Archaeologists were hired to be at the construction site and have possession of artifacts which include arrowheads and cutting tools. Still to be determined is when the artifacts are to be turned over to the Gitxsan. Mary Dalen, who lives at Cedarvale and has developed a small

museum under the auspices of the Meanskinisht Village Historical Association, questions CN’s agreement with Matthews. The area where the artifacts were found is not part of his traditional territory, she says. “The land belongs to my grandmother’s people. There’s a direct link,” said Dalen. Chandler says he’s not aware of any mechanism to deal with conflicting claims to artifacts and that as far as CN is concerned, it is dealing with the right person in Matthews. “We’ll be honouring our agreement,” he said.

Once the scene is stabilized, they can work on stabilizing the people in the vehicles and extricating them. All these steps help keep firefighters and vehicle occupants safe.

Parade entry deadline nears

ORGANIZERS ARE hard at work on the Kermode Festival of Lights, which is set to go Saturday, Dec. 1 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at George Little Park. Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce is planning a Kermode mini parade through the park, free family activities, music, hayrides and a Parade of Lights down Lakelse Ave. “We had thought we had another group that was going to organize the parade, but at the last minute we discovered that they had opted not do the parade due to the complications of the logistics,” wrote Carol Fielding in an email calling for parade entries. Last year’s parade was cancelled because of poor participation numbers, and this year the call for entries is late, so Fielding is asking interested participants to contact her as soon as possible. “In order to make the closures viable we need at least 15-plus entries,” she said. Nechako Northcoast’s traffic control crew that work for their Billa-Bong division will be providing support with street closures and traffic control. And a float isn’t neccessary. It could be the company van or a walking group entry. “Anything goes as long as it is about the holiday season,” she said. “Make sure you plan for the cold and wet...although I have sent a request to Mother Nature to help us out this year,” Fielding continued.

ON THE ROAD ACROSS THE NORTHWEST The Seabridge Gold team attended 13 events in 37 days this fall to talk about the KSM Project in local communities across the northwest. First stop was Smithers on September 11, to provide Mayor and Council with a KSM Project update and opportunity for questions. That same night, Seabridge hosted an Open House at the Northwest Community College for the public to come and learn about KSM and – if it’s approved – what it will mean for Smithers and its surrounding communities. A few days later (following a two-day technical working group meeting in Smithers with Provincial, Federal, First Nations and Nisga’a representatives), it was like déjà vu as the team rolled into Terrace to meet with Terrace’s Mayor and Council, followed by an evening Open House at the Waap Galts’ap Community House at Northwest Community College’s Terrace campus. “One of the things we like about meetings like these is they give us an opportunity to hear directly from communities about what residents think about the KSM Project,” says Elizabeth Miller, Seabridge’s Manager, Environmental Affairs, who works in the KSM Project ofﬁce in Smithers. “The most frequent comments we hear at every event relate to jobs and training, and how people can prepare for employment opportunities if mining projects like KSM are approved.” Miller continues, “There are more than 120 different occupations to choose from in mining which means jobs to suit many, at every skill level. If KSM gets approved, we’ll be able to start hiring people.

But that’s still at least a couple of years down the road, so we’ve created information about jobs in mining to help people understand what’s involved in the work, and what skills training they’ll need to do in order to be prepared when the opportunities come up.” On October 14, Miller and her colleagues headed north for two days of community information sessions in Telegraph Creek, Dease Lake and Iskut. Then, on October 17 back in Smithers, Brent Murphy, Seabridge’s VP, Environmental Affairs was part of a panel discussion on mining development at the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako Business Forum. The next day, Murphy headed to Stewart to meet with the Mayor and Chief Financial Ofﬁcer, while Miller presented at the Annual Gitxsan Summit in Hazelton and then hopped in the car to drive to Stewart to meet up with her colleagues for an evening Open House at the Rec Centre. “It was a tiring few weeks and a lot of driving, but was very worthwhile,” says Miller. “Many people across northwestern BC have some kind of connection to mining – because they work or have worked on projects, or because their friends and family are involved with the industry in some way. On the road, we get to share our stories about working in the industry, as well as information about KSM, and we get to hear other people’s stories too.” To access information about careers in mining, visit www.ksmproject.com/project/working-at-ksm/.

Stevens returns as Nisga’a president SWEARING IN ceremonies have been held for members of the Nisga’a Lisims Government who were elected in the Nisga’a Nation’s general elections held Nov. 7. Mitchell Stevens defeated two challengers in winning the election to be president of the Nisga’a Lisims Government for the next four years. Stevens received 741 votes compared to Eva Clayton who received 557 and Charles Morven, who received 414 votes. General voting day was Nov. 7 but results weren’t released until Nov. 10 when elections officials collected tallies from the four Nisga’a villages in the Nass Valley and from urban voting stations in Terrace, Prince Rupert, Vancouver and Prince George. Stevens, from Laxgalts’ap in the Nass Valley, was first elected president in a 2010 byelection made necessary by the death of Nelson Leeson. He had been regarded as an establishment candidate with Clayton and Morven promising more involvement by Nisga’a citizens and more openness. The Nov. 7 elections also saw national government positions filled for chairman of the

council of elders and secretary-treasurer. Village chief councillor and village council positions were also filled as were positions for the three urban Nisga’a locals of Terrace, Prince Rupert and

Vancouver. The surprise result of the elections was the defeat of Edmond Wright in a bid to continue being secretarytreasurer of the Nisga’a Lisims Government. Corinne McKay won

that job with 886 votes compared to 618 for Wright and 186 for Curt Johnson. Wright was among a core of Nisga’a leaders involved in the negotiations leading to the Nisga’a Final Agree-

ment of 2000 and held elected office since then as the Lisims government established itself. Kevin McKay retained his position as chairman of the Lisims government by acclamation.

Nisga’a national and local elections are held every four years. The Nisga’a national assembly, which holds sessions in New Aiyansh, is made up of members from Nass Valley villages and urban locals.

Winter arrives

THE SEASON’S first major winter storm Nov. 22 brought snow, high winds, cancelled airline flights and made driving tricky. Air Canada Jazz cancelled inbound flights from Vancouver that day to Terrace as well as to Prince Rupert and to Smithers. Lights flickered in the area the afternoon of Nov. 22 but no major power outages were reported. But high winds did bring down one tree at the Ksan Society’s Hall St. shelter. It damaged a vehicle. Total precipitation on Nov. 22 was 12mm with snow falling overnight into Nov. 23, amounting to 32.4mm for that day.

Candidate passes away

IN LIEU of flowers do what Mike would do: a random act of kindness. Those words speak volumes about the life of Mike Ross, 60, a retired armed forces veteran, who ran unsuccessfully for city council last year and died Nov. 7 after a long battle with cancer. “That’s Mike,” said Freda, his wife Mike Ross of 14 years. “In fact, since he passed away, people have flooded me with stories of him doing things that I never knew about.” She knew that, at his job at Greyhound, when the bus would come in really late that he would drive everybody home afterward when the weather was bad. Being civic minded, Freda said Mike always wanted to run for city council. He was diagnosed with lung cancer in January – he smoked for 42 years – and took seven months of chemotherapy, and responded very well, said Freda. He returned to work but the cancer returned.

Major road projects city staff have slated for years to come include Graham from Kalum to Eby, Loen from Munroe to Eby, Munroe Hwy16 to Walsh and Munroe from Straume to McConnell. Without an industrial tax base to increase municipal tax revenues, the city has mainly residential and business tax revenue to rely upon, a factor that can limit its ability to undertake capital projects such as road rebuilding.

The Douglas Channel is one of the widest and deepest inland waterways on North America’s west coast. Government research had already determined Kitimat to be among the safest ports in B.C., and about 1,500 tankers carrying petrochemicals have docked safely at Kitimat over the past quarter-century.

Also, the city has been eyeing a rebuild on Park Ave. for sometime. “Park was on our list two years ago and we moved it back,” said councillor Brian Downie. The difference between a road rebuild and paving is work on the infrastructure that lies beneath it, a new road base and drainage as well as pavement on top. Road paving, for which the draft budget has $1.3 million slated for 2013, can be patchpaving work or involve the removal of the road surface either by crushing it into new road base

Kitimat: A safe option I’d like to set the record straight on why we chose Kitimat, at the head of the Douglas Channel, as the site for Gateway’s marine terminal.

But the simple reason is . . . safety, all the way.

SERVICES WERE held Nov. 22 for Murdoch (Doch) Robertson who passed away Nov. 18 at the age of 86. A lawyer, Robertson practised law in Terrace for nearly 50 years. Robertson obtained his law degree while attending university in Vancouver and came up to northwestern B.C. to live in Prince Rupert where he articled with the firm of Brown and Harvey. He met his future wife Marion who was also attending school in Vancouver and they were married on Nov. 3, 1951 in Nanaimo. They had just celebrated their 61st wedding anniversary this past Nov. 3. After living and working in Prince Rupert, Robertson’s law firm advised him to move to Smithers and that’s what he and Marion did. A law school classmate, Lawrence Perry, had served the town as its sole lawyer for some years. Doch and Marion enjoyed Smithers very much, liked the people and found lots of things to do. Early in 1957, they decided to leave Smithers and move to Terrace because a collapse in the wood industry there affected Robertson’s ability to make a living. They thought Terrace would prove to have more activity and after coming to take a look, decided to move here. The town was booming and rental accommodation was at a premium in the late 1950s. They managed to find an apartment on Davis Avenue, near MacKay’s Funeral Home, which was in a

Romance and redemption take the stage in Carousel CAL DRAMA students take a shot at romance and redemption in Carousel. Billy, a carnival barker, and Julie fall in love at first sight at the amusement park and go for a walk together. Despite warnings from others about Billy, and at risk of losing her job at the cotton mill, Julie won’t leave him. Billy’s boss Mrs. Mullin fires him and after he packs his things, he learns that Julie lives at a boarding house and works at the cotton mill. The couple tells each other their feelings and are married soon afterward. The story takes a several twists and turns from there. Graeme Linton is Billy and Brielle Dorais Fleming plays Julie. Erika Loggin is Mrs. Mullin, Billy’s boss. Greg Van Horne is “unsavoury” sailor Jigger, who turns Billy’s and Julie’s lives upside down. Katie Hollett is Carrie, Julie’s friend and Rheann Armes is Net-

Book features local Punjabis LOCALS ARE featured in a new book about the northwest that was years in the making. Kamala Elizabeth Nayar, professor of Asian Studies at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, recently had her first book published: The Punjabis in British Columbia, Location, Labour, First Nations and Multiculturalism. It took four years to research and two years to complete a draft of the whole book, said Nayar by email. “I hope that readers find a greater appreciation for the rich multicultural history of First Nations and immigrants in B.C.’s north coast, which tends to be overshadowed by Canadian metropolises like Vancouver. And, a better understanding of the process of adaptation and the impact of multiculturalism, both of which are influenced by geographic location,” she said. She interviewed 150 people, including Terrace’s own Mo Takhar and even visited the Terrace Lumber Company here in 2006. She noticed the shrinking of the Punjabi community of the Skeena Region as the forest industry took a downturn, she said. Her interest in the topic began after moving from Montreal to the Lower Mainland for a post-doctoral fellowship, which involved a research project on the Vancouver Sikh community, where she noticed differences between Sikhs raised there and those from small B.C. towns. When she began teaching in Surrey, which has a large Punjabi population, she could easily spot Punjabi students from small B.C. towns. “Subsequently, I wanted to investigate their greater sense of belonging to both the region and the country, as well as their greater awareness of the First Nations.” After visiting the northwest in 2003, she wanted to do a research project in Prince Rupert and Terrace. “It was disheartening to see people struggling because of the economic downturn, but even so I appreciated the friendly atmosphere of the region and the resilience of the people.”

Shoebox drive ‘amazing’ OPERATION CHRISTMAS Child Shoebox Campaign in the northwest took off and filled more boxes than expected. “It’s been an amazing response and not just here,” said Louise Freeman, who coordinates the campaign here. “Prince Rupert phoned me and needed another 200 [boxes]. Kitimat had 16 boxes left. I’ve just ordered another 300 coming in now,” she said early last week. She was in the Dollar Store one day when she overheard a little girl telling her dad they had to get a shoebox. Her dad had no idea what she was talking about. “This child was maybe eight or nine so not a little, little child but wow she was so excited,” said Freeman. “A child wanting to give to another child is exciting to see.” Freeman had 900 shoeboxes, not counting all the other plastic shoebox-sized containers that people might use if they can’t get an official shoebox. “If people bring them back, then I would think we’ll hit a record this year,” she said.

Freeman was able to get an extension from Greyhound, which ships the boxes for free, up to the end of this month, an extra seven days or so. Freeman thanked Greyhound and the community for its overwhelming response this year. “It’s really exciting,” she said. “People seem to have decided this is a real positive thing.” Operation Christmas Child started in 1990 and is part of Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian organization run by Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham. Shoeboxes are collected year round but the official collection week is usually in November and then they’re shipped out around the world. They are filled with hygiene items, school supplies, toys and candy for children of both genders and a variety of ages. This year, it’s expected that the 100 millionth shoebox will be collected. Shoeboxes collected from Canada this year will be distributed to Costa Rica, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Haiti, Ivory Coast, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Uruguay and Venezuela.

Wednesday, November 28, 2012

friend wrote me a note the other day, part of which read, “ . . . It only reminded me that I used to write and that I don’t anymore and that is only one thing in a long list that I have lost along the way.” Her words came back to me this Saturday as I considered the stark landscape of the depleted Skeena beneath the old bridge. Rocks, bare. Trees—no, trunks. Severed. Separated. Set apart. Stripped of bark and branch and leaf. Rootless. They looked like ivory bones on the earth’s silty guts. She needs to get back to the creative things she let go of, I thought. She needs to. Fall is an introspective season. Perhaps it’s because the weather forces a physical slow down and a turn to inward contemplation. Or perhaps it’s more primal: as nature goes dormant or dies, thoughts tune to the occurrence of the same in other parts of our lives. Or maybe, for me, it’s more personal. My parents both passed away in October, and fall seems indelibly linked to my own mortality. Whatever the reason, this time of year I find myself thinking about how I live and what I put my energy into. I had a hard week. Month. Year. If it wasn’t for my writing, I don’t know what I would’ve done. Sounds melodramatic—and maybe it is, but I don’t care. I look at our world, at the things that go on in it, and I don’t know how— without music, without art, without poetry and stories—people stay sane. Most people loved some creative

JUST A THOUGHT

EV BISHOP

November’s River pursuit, I hate to say it, when they were young. What is it about adult life that makes so many of us forsake the things we enjoy most? Sometimes it’s because dreams and desires honestly change, but a lot of time (maybe even most of the time) we give up those passions, those unique activities that make us us, out of fear, out of misplaced feelings of obligation, out of pressure from people who don’t get it (and don’t get us even if they love us). I’ve long battled feeling selfish. I spend hours by myself—and I need more than I get. I don’t keep a tidy house. I tune my family out sometimes. (I also love them sincerely and passionately, and try really hard to know them, respect them and give them space to be who they need to be, etc.—though

that’s a whole other column). I can be distracted—and unapologetically disinterested in some things, like small talk. Yet my writing has made me a better wife, mom, person. I think. I hope. It is good for people to pursue their passions—and as a parent it’s critical. We have to model what we value: thoughtfulness, a pursuit of things with intrinsic value—things with cultural, emotional, mental, or spiritual significance. Society will do all it can to sway our children (and us!) to a life of materialism, vapid pleasures, and looks-based self-worth. We need to counteract that influence the best we can, and I think the best way to do that is to show the rightness of thinking, learning, and expressing. Letting ourselves sing, play an instrument, carve, write, garden, fish, quilt, sew, work in a shop—the list could go on and on—is crucial in so many ways. It helps us deal with stress, with sadness, with anger. It reminds us that joy can co-exist with sadness, beauty can survive hard times, and one can find peace even amidst inner storms. The Skeena is lonely in November, but there’s beauty in her sharp greyon-black-on-white lines and something inspiring in her resolute journey onward. If you have regrets about things undone or neglected, make this the year you take up that dropped course, cause, art, or hobby. Live as you feel you’re supposed to. That’s the thing about things that get lost along the way. They can be stumbled upon later. Found. Reclaimed.

Cara Anne Morton Cara Anne Morton, born June 25, 1968 in Scarborough Ont., died peacefully after a lengthy and courageous battle with cancer on November 18, 2012 in Terrace, B.C. Cara leaves behind: her children, Aila Morton and Adrian La Haie; husband Bruce La Haie; mother Anna Morton; and brothers Greg and Derek Morton. Predeceased by her father Ronald Morton. Cara was passionate about sharing her experience as an artist and experimental filmmaker with local community members, and advocated a do-it-yourself approach to creating art, with particular interest in the creative process, over final products. She will be missed by all who had the good fortune to meet her, whether at a Shutter to Think screening, laughter yoga, or out and about around town. Her family is grateful to friends and community, who have helped so much over the last while. Service was held at Terrace Pentecostal Assembly on Nov. 23, 2012. Donations in memoriam can be sent to Inspire Health.

Nightmares on track for success The Northcoast Nightmares roller derby team is coasting towards the future and looking to add some financial padding to their upcoming season with a gender-bending fundraiser this weekend at the Thornhill Community Centre. As a sport, roller derby has been gaining serious traction and respect over the last few years. Games, called “bouts”, feature all-female five-on-five play with players skating in circles as a pack and one player, the jammer, earning points by lapping the group. It’s a fast-paced contact sport with players encouraged to have major personality. The Nightmares’ team is still in its formative years, and the women are always looking for new players, volunteers, and cash to help cover costs. This is just one of the reasons they are hosting their fundraiser on Dec. 1 starting at 6 p.m., that will feature dinner, dancing, and an all-male beauty pageant and auction where the contestants will auction off tasks like “shovel driveway” or “walk dog.” Proceeds from the auction portion will go to the Salvation Army, while the rest of the event’s proceeds will go towards financing the team. “Until we have more teams closer to home, the costs for the games will remain high,” said Tarea “Dream Warrior” Roberge, whose team travels for away games regularly to Prince George to face-off and train with the team there, the Rated PG Girls. “We have to bring trained refs in from out of town, which means covering their travel costs as well as lodging,” she said of home games, noting they also give money to the teams who travel here to help them out. “The distance becomes costly.” This is one reason the team is pushing to get Prince Rupert, Kitimat, and Smithers registered, bench-marked leagues running. “With our four communities, we could hold our own tournaments and travel far less,” she said, noting that the lack of ven-

taste of what the hype is about and see some amazing more experienced players in action,” she said. Aside from the cost, in order to host more home games the team needs volunteers for all of the supporting positions. “Penalty trackers, announcers, security, jam timers, score trackers, a head non-skating official,” she said. “We’d also really love to have trained local refs, which for the right person with the right dedication we will help get the training by covering travel and train-

ing costs.” And even though the team is asking for support from the community, they’ve always made a point to give back. “The Northcoast Nightmares have raised $5,000 for the Canucks Autism Network, $1,200 for United Way in the fire truck pull, and with our kids we also participated in the Kidney Walk this summer,” she said. “We are proud of the contributions we have made in our community and plan to always be involved and give back.”

Zebras roam in Terrace

A pack of nine young referees from across northern B.C. attended the annual North West Development Camp weekend here in Terrace on the weekend of Nov. 17, taking part in officiating seminars, reffing games during the Bantam tournament, and playing some of their own. Officials from Vanderhoof, Fraser Lake, Smithers, Kitimat and Hazelton were represented, as well as four from Terrace. The northwest district runs from Vanderhoof to Kitimat/Prince Rupert. “It’s a large district and these events take a lot of coordinating from many people,” said Dan Nickel, BC Hockey’s northwest district referee committee member. But the effort pays off, as the annual event, which has been held in other northwest towns previously, makes a difference. “I notice a difference game to game [in the young refs],” he said. “Even in terms of positioning.” The camp helps to get all of the officials on the same level, and develop their abilities and confidence level, so that they can ref any number Anna KIllen PHOTO of games, by pairing younger refs with more exYoung Officials from across the northwest came to Terrace Nov. 16 - 18 perienced refs for about a handful of games over the weekend. for the annual development camp weekend.

“It’s about learning in a fun environment,” he said, giving the example of a game of hockey jeopardy the group played. “If the young kids are not enjoying it, then learning decreases and mistakes will be made.” And the vibe in their conference room at the Sportsplex on the Saturday night was certainly fun, with the guys eating pizza and poking fun at each other — and their superiors, who included Kevin Kennedy and Terrace’s minor hockey head referee, Cam MacBean. Peter Nicholson, from Terrace, said the camp has helped him to “become a better ref in general” and taught him about the three-man system of reffing, something he hadn’t experienced yet. About a third of the guys said they’d like to pursue officiating as a steady career in the future, with dreams of reffing in the NHL. The camp also helped to give them the tools to deal with abuse from parents and coaches, a reason many officials across Canada leave the game. “This has to stop,” said Nickel. “Part of this weekend is giving these kids the tools to deal with this.” Some of those tools include staying calm, and leaving heated situations, the group said.

Teams volley to provincials

Both Senior volleyball teams from Caledonia Secondary School are travelling to provincials this week. The girls team is in Vancouver and will play their first game tomorrow. The boys are in Kelowna, where the home team is ranked 2nd in the province. The Cal “AAA” boys team is ranked 17th going into the tournament and will face off against Mount Baker in their first game today. Centennial Christian School’s Grade 8 “A” team is also in Kelowna for provincials. At zones here in Terrace earlier this month, Centennial Christian went undefeated in the round robin with a 4-0 record and met Bulkley Valley Christian School in the final, defeating them in two straight sets. They’ll face off against Richmond Christian first thing this morning, and Vernon Christian later this morning. Full results here next week.

s carbon fibre or graphite a better material for building fly rods than glass fibre or fibreglass? The jury is out and may never come in with the verdict given that the difference in weight between the best of both materials is negligible, and so much depends on the personal preference and casting style of the user. Their manufacturers made much of the light weight of graphite rods in their advertising campaigns, and many inexperienced and inept fly casters quickly used that feature to judge rod quality. When they first hit the North American market, graphite rods were stiff in comparison to those of fibre glass and bamboo. The purveyors of graphite rods pointed to this feature and claimed it enabled the user to cast tighter loops, which, because of its aerodynamic efficiency, is the back bone of a well executed cast. Any skilled caster who has experience casting rods of graphite, glass, and bamboo, knows that weight is of almost no importance to good casting. Balance is the key. A fly rod is a lever. The caster’s arm is the fulcrum. If the reel and the portion of the single handed rod behind the hand of an angler is approximately equal to the weight of the rest of the rod, the rod is balanced and, as such will can be cast with less effort, greater efficiency, and will cause less wear and tear on the shoulder, arm, and back.

Midget reps first in Prince George Tier 2 tournament Terrace Totem Ford Midget Reps travelled to Prince George over the Nov. 16-18 weekend and left taking first place in their Tier 2 annual tournament. Terrace dominated almost all of their games, first playing Prince Rupert Friday morning and beating them 3-0, with goals from Rhett Munson, Curtis Hull and Ryan Roseboom and the shut-out for Brandon Thandi. Later that day, Terrace spanked Williams Lake 7-1 with goals from Nikita Desjarlais, Colin Bell, Colten Braid, Devon Poulin, Tanner Braid, Austin Turner and Ryan Roseboom. In goal was Dion Johnston. Saturday’s first game against longtime rival Quesnel, was another satisfying defeat, 7-1, with goals from Rhett Munson, Chris Allison, Curtis Hull and four goals from Austin Turner with Brandon Thandi between the pipes. Saturday’s second game was against the hometown team Prince George, in which Terrace was feeling the effects of their early morning game and lost 4-2. Goals from Ryan Roseboom and Chris Allison. But Terrace was still in the top spot and advanced to the finals, only to play the home town team once again on Sunday. But this time Terrace was well-rested and came out strong. They still didn’t score any goals until the second period when they took a lead of

Some ten years back, my friend, rod builder Bob Clay, and I fished the Skeena’s Panorama Run together. I was using a 15-foot graphite two hander, while Bob was giving a 16-foot bamboo rod of Sharpe’s manufacture that he’d recently acquired on eBay. Because of the considerable torque spey casting cane rods puts on their joints, their makers favoured splices to metal ferrules. The Sharpe’s rod was of these. Bob lashed the sections together with tape, then began casting. The line went out well enough, but after a few casts it appeared that Bob was straining. I took the rod when he offered and quickly realized where that strain was coming from. The pole weighed as much as a fence post. The anglers who cast rods of this heft had a system of casting that involved balance points on the caster’s body and employed as little movement of the arms and body as possible. The technique is well described in John Lynde’s superb primer Thirty-Four Ways to Cast a Fly. Bob and I weren’t familiar with this approach then. I know it now, but even so, using a rod as heavy as that with the best technique would be more work than pleasure. ...continued next week...
