45 dogs seized by the SPCA Brentwood Bay man had been hoarding the dogs Steven Heywood News staff

Concerned for the welfare of dogs under the care of a single person in Brentwood Bay, the B.C. SPCA this week seized 45 poodle-bichon frise cross dogs, including 35 adults, nine puppies and one that had died. On Jan. 9, B.C. SPCA constables executed a warrant to seize the animals. Lorie Chortyk, general manager of community relations for the B.C. SPCA says it is a case of hoarding and where breeding was going unchecked in the home. The agency, she said, felt they had to act as the situation met the B.C. SPCA photo definition of disTwo of the poodle-bichon tress under the anifrise puppies seized. mal cruelty act. “There were so many dogs in there that there was no way the man could have taken care of them,” she said. In this case, Chortyk explained, the environment in which the 45 dogs were living did not provide adequate food and shelter and led to physical and emotional distress. She said the SPCA had concerns about the man and his dogs and had met with him before with limited success in getting him to give some of the dogs to a local rescue group or to other homes.

NDP ready for election challenge Riding chair says Saanich North and the Islands is up for grabs Steven Heywood News staff

There are now two candidates in Saanich North and the Islands in the May 14 B.C. election. Adam Olsen was this week acclaimed as the Green Party’s candidate and has said he will resign his District of Central

Saanich council seat in order to run. Olsen is, so far, the second candidate in the riding. New Democratic Party candidate Gary Holman is the other — and first, having been acclaimed to the position more than a year ago. Holman came within 245 votes of reaching current B.C. Liberal MLA Murray Coell in the 2009 provincial election.

fter 11 years as Principal of Keating Elementary School, Mark Notte checked into retirement this past month. At the end of December Notte hung up his principal hat and according to friends, staff, students and community members his contributions to the school and the community will be missed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mark was always very hands on and he was very passionate about the school and the community,â&#x20AC;? explained Mary Lynn Heron, who worked with Notte as vice-principal of Keating. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Until the day he left you could just tell that he was enjoying what he did.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;And Mark always made sure no matter what, that the kids came first,â&#x20AC;? added Teacher Librarian Sarah Windle, who worked with Notte for eight years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was never afraid to get involved.â&#x20AC;? Windle and Heron noted that over his time at Keating, Notte worked on many projects including involving the school with the Peninsula Streams Society and the salmon in the classroom program. The interest, Heron added, came from Notteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early career as a fisherman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He would never hesitate to take the kids

Principal of Keating Elementary, Mark Notte, accepts personalized paper fish with goodbye messages written by students and staff during his last day at the school. Notte officially retired Dec. 31, after 11 years at Keating Elementary. on field trips to Shady Creek to learn about our local waterways and he would get local First Nations groups to speak to the kids about the importance of fish in their culture,â&#x20AC;? she said. Notteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love for fishing was clear during his retirement ceremony at the school in mid-December. The students and teachers decorated large paper cutouts of salmon and wrote farewell messages on them for him which he then had to catch in a large net. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The last 11 years

here have been very special,â&#x20AC;? Notte said during the ceremony. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will miss everyoneâ&#x20AC;?

Prior to taking the job as principal at Keating, Notte spent time at the secondary and

middle school levels in the district as well as in administrative jobs. His career took him

through North Saanich Middle School, Stellyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Secondary and Bayside Middle School before

he took on the role of principal at Keating. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a great pleasure working with him for as many years as I did,â&#x20AC;? said Windle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His support for his colleagues never wavered.â&#x20AC;? Corporal Pat Bryant of the Central Saanich Police worked with Notte for many years through his position as school liaison officer and said he was an important figure to everyone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mark is a mentor figure, not only to me, but also to many others and especially the students he taught over the years.â&#x20AC;? reporter@peninsula newsreview.com

Administration changes at Keating Elementary After working alongside Mark Notte as vice-principal of Keating Elementary, Mary Lynn Heron is stepping into the role of term principal for the school. Stepping into Heronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s VP position as term vice-principal is Sarah Windle who previously worked as a teacher, teacher librarian and reading mentor for the school. The pair taught together previously and are looking forward to working together again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We already know we work well together as a team so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really looking forward to working on new goals for the school together,â&#x20AC;? said Heron who added that the school has two main goals for the foreseeable future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working hard on our connections within the community and extending those branches Mary Lynn Heron and â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Devon MacKenzie Sarah Windle. as well as focusing on reading and literacy with our students.

Holman close second in ‘09 Continued from page 1

B.C. SPCA photo

Forty-five dogs are being held by the B.C. SPCA in Victoria.

Owner can apply for custody Continued from page 1

“We did try to befriend this individual and have him cooperate, but he was very, very resistant.” When the situation of hoarding and breeding did not change after previous visits and discussions, the SPCA took action, she said. “He did not want to give up his dogs. We try to be compassionate, but it was too much.” The SPCA did have the police on hand in case of a confrontation. Chortyk said hoarding animals is a common occurrence, adding that often the owners don’t see it as an unhealthy situation for themselves or the animals. The dogs are in the care of the Victoria branch of the B.C. SPCA, where Chortyk said they are being examined, groomed, treated for any health

issues and the females examined to determine how many are pregnant. Chortyk said the owner had bred and sold some of the dogs in the past. The dogs are currently not up for adoption. The owner, said Chortyk, has 14 days to apply to the B.C. SPCA to get the dogs back. If he does so, she said the agency will pursue further legal avenues to ensure he can adequately care for the animals that he might get back. If the owner does not apply, the dogs would then be put up for adoption. Chortyk said they have a 90 per cent “live release” rate and chances are good that if these dogs were put up for adoption, they would find new homes. Chortyk said it’s too early to say what the outcome might be, adding the SPCA continues to investigate and care for the 45 dogs. editor@peninsulanewsreview.com

“We feel we have more volunteers and more funds,” he continued, “so we’re better prepared.” Having come so close in the last election, Collier said the NDP are poised for a change in the riding — and doing so would be a first for the party. “There has never been an NDP MLA here,” he confirmed, adding Coell has been a strong candidate in the area since he was elected MLA in 1996. Saanich North and the Islands has been held by the B.C. Liberals since 1991 (Clive Tanner, MLA) and when it was known as Saanich and the Islands (pre1991), it was held by the Social Credit Party or, in 1972, the Progressive Conservatives. The Green Party placed a distant second to Coell in 2001, but had not made gains after that. Collier said this year, the Greens will fare better than in years past. “Personally, I’m not sure how the Green Party will do, but if Adam Olsen is the candidate, he has roots in the community. He will be a good candidate.” Collier admitted the race will be tight and will be won by whoever can show themselves to be the best choice for local voters. He said Holman is a strong candidate in Saanich North and

No other candidates announced - yet • The B.C. Liberal Party has not yet named a replacement for outgoing Saanich North and the Islands MLA Murray Coell. Coell announced last year that he would be retiring from politics in 2013, after spending the last 16 years as MLA. File photo

Saanich North and the Islands NDP candidate Gary Holman. the Islands and is looking to make gains on his last election result. In a media release, Holman said the party is focussed on “preparing the strongest campaign the NDP has ever seen in Saanich North and the Islands.” “This time, I am confident we can win this constituency and change the government of B.C.,” he said. The NDP riding association held its annual general meeting Sunday, Jan. 13 at St. Andrew’s Church Hall on Fourth Street in Sidney. Local NDP members were to vote in planned riding executive elections.

• The B.C. Conservative Party has also not yet named a candidate for the riding. Last week, they named three candidates on the Island in the ridings of North Island (Campbell River), Parksville-Qualicum and Nanaimo-North Cowichan. A spokesperson told the Peninsula News Review they plan to run candidates in 84 of 85 B.C. ridings this year‚ including Saanich North and the Islands. They will not run one in Delta South, as the incumbent there is an independent and a conservative, according to the spokesperson.

Cash, drugs nabbed in raid VICTORIA — Victoria and Saanich police arrested a 40-year-old Victoria man and simultaneously raided five locations Jan. 9, seizing $40,000 in cash and drugs. The Greater Victoria Emergency Response Team was involved in the midday arrest of the suspect at Finlayson and Douglas streets, while more than 40 officers raided two businesses, two residences and a 33-foot boat. The months-long investigation included covert surveillance throughout the Capital Region. Charges were not released as the suspect has yet to formally appear in court. Another 40-year-old man and three women in their late-20s were also arrested at the residences. — News staff

Elder College on the grow Programming at Greenglade has seen jump in members Steven Heywood News staff

In one year, membership at the Elder College at the Greenglade Community Centre has gone from 60 people to 150, marking great success for a program that caters to area seniors. Elder College, run by Panorama Recreation, started at Greenglade in Sidney in January, 2011 and has seen an explosion of people taking advantage of its $15 membership fee. For that fee, says Panorama’s community recreation co-ordinator Dustin Ray-Wilks, people in the 50-plus age range can take advantage of low-cost programs, from pottery and fitness to education and more. Throughout January, they are offering two memberships for the price of one. The facility also recently was upgraded and held an open house Jan. 9. Thanks to a Service Canada New Horizons grant, Ray-Wilks said they expanded and improved the Elder College lounge space, added more programs and brought in more volunteer instructors. They also hired a part-time assistant. “We’ve probably doubled the number of courses on offer,” he said. Birgit Larsen, who calls herself a new senior at 65, was at the open house to see what programs are to her liking. “I’ve seen Elder College advertised at Panorama and now, at 65, I am interested in taking some of the programs. It’s pretty interesting when you turn 65 and are a senior — you start to receive your pension cheques.” Larsen said she saw a few programs she might be interested in taking, especially one on writing down memories. “The stories that people have

In the pottery studio, students Glynne Turner and Deb Hewat were busy working on new and ongoing artwork. Turner said she started it last year after having no experience and after two lessons, was hooked. “I tried it and I just fell in love with it,” she said. Hewat added she and many others have been in the program since it started and have created a great community, built around

making pottery. “It’s such a great mix,” she said. “You can share successes, learn something new and it’s time for yourself.” The Greenglade Community Centre itself has added new programs and spaces for all ages — from a weight room and new teen centre, to gym space and a preschool program. Ray-Wilks called it an inter-generational community centre, as they try to build a hub for children, adults and seniors to interact.

Push for Change slated for Sidney Motivational speaker Joe Roberts coming to Mary Winspear Centre Devon MacKenzie News staff

An inspiring rags to riches story is coming to Sidney next week thanks to the Saanich Peninsula chapter of the Canadian Federation of University Women. Joe Roberts, a former addict and resident of Vancouver’s Downtown East Side who transformed himself into a company CEO and now a motivational speaker,

is coming to the Bodine Hall at the Mary Winspear Centre on Jan. 22. Recently, Roberts has taken on the huge challenge of a trek across Canada this spring from Newfoundland to Vancouver. Prior to coming to Sidney he will have completed a walk from Calgary to Edmonton in preparation for the trek which is promoting his Push for Change initiative. The initiative is

designed to create a dialogue in communities across the nation about poverty and addiction and create initiatives to ensure young people do not end up on the streets. “The provincial organization of University Women wanted to focus on addressing the high level of young people living in poverty in our province,” explained CFUW Saanich Peninsula President

Donna Miller. “Hosting of this event is just one way to get the message out that B.C. has the second highest rate of children in poverty of any province in Canada, second only to Manitoba. We hope to see lots of young people from the community attend Joe’s talk as well as adults.” Miller went on to explain that the provincial association of CFUW asked all their clubs to focus on family poverty in their own communities, and the Saanich Peninsula chapter as well as others in Greater Victoria have been doing just that. “We spent the fall learning about the issues through speakers from Beacon Community Services, the Saanich School District and the Salvation Army,” she said. “Both the Victoria and Saanich clubs have been working together and the intent of all this is to get organizations working together to address the issue of youth poverty.” She noted that the Victoria chapter of CFUW will be hosting an all candidates meeting in April prior to the provincial election asking questions of the candidates regarding their ideas on addressing the issue. “We all need to

This isn’t the first time Roberts will be spreading his message on the Peninsula. A couple years ago the Royal Oak Rotary Club organized an event called Harvesting Hope for Woodwynn Farms at which Roberts was the keynote speaker. The event raised $20,000 for an irrigation system for the therapeutic community.

Vision Matters Dr. Paul Neumann

Healthy Eyes. Doctor Delivered.

How to get the most out of your eye exam Ah yes, a New Year and all those resolutions you don’t keep. Attending to your eye health is one resolution you should keep. A complete eye examination is your most valuable tool in ensuring a lifetime of healthy eyes and clear vision. To provide you with the best eye and vision care, your Optometrist needs to know a few things about your health, how you use your eyes, and any unusual symptoms you may be experiencing. Make it clear what you want or what is bothering you at the beginning of the exam. Some people wait until the very end of the exam to mention what is really worrying them. Perhaps this is from embarrassment or the feeling that the complaint is trivial, but the Optometrist will be better able to give the problem the time and attention it requires if it is mentioned early. Few complaints are silly and even minor symptoms can be important. Know your medications or, even better, bring a list. Knowledge of your family history of eye disorders is extremely helpful. If you have a complaint like a headache, try to describe it as accurately as possible: time of onset, duration, frequency etc. Be able to describe your work environment. Knowing the distance to your computer or desk makes it much easier to prescribe and design the appropriate spectacle lens. Consider the hobbies and sports in which you participate. You may use your eyes differently for recreational activities than you do for your job, or you may require suitable eye protection. Don’t forget to bring the glasses that you wear every day along with any old ones that you still may use. Any other old glasses may be brought in and donated for use in third world countries. Do not wear a lot of eye makeup. If you wear contact lenses, inquire if the optometrist will want you to wear them to the exam. This varies from one optometrist to another and with the purpose of the visit. Ask if your eyes will be dilated. If the answer is “yes”, avoid driving yourself to the examination and consider bringing sunglasses. And ﬁnally, relax! Eye examinations are not painful, and can even be fun.

OUR VIEW

Flexing your mental muscles If anything proves the old adage that you’re never too old to learn new things, it’s the Elder College programs on offer at the Greenglade Community Centre in Sidney. Run by Panorama Recreation Services, Elder College is based on a similar program operated by Nanaimo’s Vancouver Island University, which has satellite Elder College campuses on the is a good, mid-Island. The programs at inexpensive way Elder College are to stay healthy many and varied — from computer literacy offerings and writing workshops, to arts and crafts classes. They appeal to a broad variety of people — those folks who subscribe to life-long learning. Inspirational words came from selfdescribed “new senior” Birgit Larsen, who recently turned 65. She was at a recent open house for Elder College and Greenglade, looking forward to taking advantage of the low-cost programs. For her, writing about her life seemed a good fit, as she hopes to create a bit of a history of her family for future generations. It sounds like she has some great stories to tell. Learning how to put words to paper is only a small part of the opportunities at Elder College — opportunities people are taking more and more advantage of. According to the operators, membership has more than doubled in a year. This could be due to the Baby Boomers entering retirement. The added interest could also be indicative of a healthier elder generation — one that values mental health as well as physical, and has no problem exercising their mental muscles. As more and more people stay working, and as the retirement age is moved back a couple years, there will continue to be a need for education programs for those still-active minds. Elder College is a good, inexpensive way to stay healthy. What do you think? Give us your comments by e-mail: editor@peninsulanewsreview.com or fax 250-656-5526.

I argued that this PAH study mirrors the true picture of carbon dioxide emissions, which is that nearly 70 per cent of CO2 from all petroleum comes when you burn the final product in engines and furnaces. In B.C., which doesn’t burn coal for electricity, fully 40 per cent of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are from transportation. Other sources include home heating and industry. Berman insisted I was wrong and claimed 70 per cent of Canada’s greenhouse gases come from “heavy industry.” I asked for her source. No response. A 2010 report by a Royal Society of Canada expert panel calculated that 27 per cent of our country’s fossil fuel emissions come from transportation. Another 16 per cent is from fuels burned for electricity. Five per cent is from oil sands operations. Berman’s figure is conveniently untrue. Greenpeace and the rest of the environmental scare industry want you to believe that stopping Alberta’s oil sands and pipelines would save the planet. Also wrong. It would drive oil demand from the U.S., Venezuela’s oil sands and elsewhere, with little net effect on the climate or pollution.

LETTERS Big ideas means there are more big risks

essee now, someone thought big and erected the money-losing Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre in Sidney in such a way that it cannot physically expand. So they want to try something different — in reality just more bigness, in the form of some organization using the cutesy Salish Sea buzzword but lacking a solid mission. But hey! It’ll keep some people occupied, perhaps even providing a salary, especially if they can suck money out of others to cover their losses.

Readers respond: Spirit of goodwill needed on the Peninsula Now that another Christmas has passed, my hope is that the spirit of goodwill toward man will continue to be in our hearts and minds in the year to come. I especially hope that those of us who enjoy one of the most beautiful locations in the world will be able to adopt the spirit of sharing and sharing the pleasures of living on the Saanich Peninsula. With prudent decisions and careful planning, I believe that we can allow more families to move here and provide affordable housing and still keep the beauty and ambiance of the area. Barbara Nedzelski North Saanich

Thanks to our local hospital The week before Christmas I had to spend 96 hours in our Saanich Peninsula Hospital having a battery of tests and during that stay it made me realize how fortunate we on the Peninsula are in having that wonderful hospital and it’s hard working staff. I was able to watch a

nursing station and the nurses were continually on the go for their entire 12-hour shift. My care was excellent and the doctors who carried out the tests were informative and reassuring. Back in September when my wife passed away in the palliative care, my daughter and I arrived at 6:30 a.m. to pay our last respects and someone had laid a large rose bud on my wife’s chest and that small gesture meant a lot to us and made us realize how lucky we are to have that institution here. Rest assured my contribution to the Saanich Peninsula Hospital trust fund will be increased this year. Thank you Saan Pen Hospital staff. P. Fane Saanichton

Why are people drinking more? I am always amazed how people can rally for any cause, regardless whether it is worthwhile or not, but don’t seem too concerned about drunk drivers. Why are British Columbians drinking more? The answer is easy. Our esteemed MLA Rich Coleman has made it so easy to

One source being their collective business funding scheme, which will not help businesses who aren’t unique — grocery stores for example. They’d be better off marketing themselves to residents on the big city side of Sidney, though they might try advertising on the ferries: “Wheel into that big Safeway parking lot to shop instead of dealing with the mad rush on the freeway.” I will note the Sidney conference centre, which deserves promotion. Why are even aviation-oriented conferences held in

costly downtown Victoria? Perhaps because that’s all the expense account crowd think of, but Sidney has ocean water too. Of course conference centres are a favourite moneywaster for politicians (does Nanaimo yet have its desired centre and enough hotels for it?). People get grand ideas when they do not have to take the risk themselves. Keith Sketchley Saanich

Holiday spirit carryover, hospital praise, drinking and driving drink when ever and where ever you want. How many provinces allow booze to be served in pubs until 4 a.m.? Or at a sports event, a movie theatre or BYOB to a restaurant with your family. The laws need to be even tougher. This very Liberal B.C. government is more interested in the bucks the booze makes for them. It would appear people’s lives don’t count. Change is needed now. Eileen Nattrass Saanichton

Questionable facts Re: Rhetoric needs to be challenged (Nov. 9, 2012 PNR). Mr. Harrison’s opening comments are virtually identical to those of Ms. Greene. The astounding similarity of these two letters suggests to me a coordinated attack. Their letters criticize a letter written by Parkland student Ryan Trelford as being “rife with unfounded assumptions and fact free rhetoric.” The only fact in either letter is a discernible hostility to Mr. Trelford’s linking the adjectives “fresh and lively” with “new

developments.” Mr. Harrison challenges Mr. Trelford that his own “fresh and vibrant, is more likely to include a rural ambiance, farm market shopping and quiet streets.” Clearly this is an opinion which sounds more like a Norman Rockwell postcard than reality. He then muddles up his imagery by telling us that he lives in a subdivision (not, in fact, a rural area) which he claims includes an abundance of young families. A subdivision full of young families would not be particularly quiet for long, but would be vibrant and alive with children playing. As to Mr. Harrison’s facts, in his letter he claims that proportionately, youths 10-19 are more abundant in North Saanich than in the CRD as a whole. Really? Here are some facts: The total enrollment at Parkland high school is 563, of which 34 per cent (191) live in North Saanich and 58 per cent (327) live in Sidney. Total enrollment at North Saanich Middle School is 433 of which 31 per cent (134) live in North Saanich and 58 per cent (255) live in Sidney. The numbers are pretty clear and if you’ll notice, they suggest

declining enrollment as the current generation of NS Middle School students move on to high school. Mr. Harrison concludes with a demand that Mr. Trelford’s letter be dismissed as “election-style rhetoric.”

Based on the above evidence, we conclude that Mr. Harrison’s letter must be dismissed as negative, electionstyle rhetoric, devoid of tangible fact. We suspect the strength of the rebukes of those letter-writers is

provoked by fear that the coming generation wants inclusion in the future of North Saanich and will shortly be shaking up the status quo. John Upward and Nancy Eaton North Saanich

New ID cards rolled out by the province to help prevent fraud Tom Fletcher Black Press

The B.C. government is rolling out its new medical services cards starting Feb. 15, in an effort to phase out millions of CareCards in the hands of non-residents.

The new cards will be combined with the B.C. driver’s licence, with a similar B.C. Services Card available to those who don’t drive. Residents will be required to re-enrol to renew the card every five years, whether they drive or not. Qualified residents can enrol

in the Medical Services Plan at any provincial office that issues driver’s licences. There is no fee for the health services card only. The current $75 fee for a five-year driver’s licence renewal will apply to the new combined cards, discounted to $17 for seniors.

There is no requirement to get the new card until your driver’s licence needs to be renewed. The government’s plan is to change over all eligible B.C. residents between the ages of 19 and 74 to the new cards over the next five years.

To be eligible for MSP coverage, you must be a citizen or approved permanent resident of Canada, living in B.C. at least six months of the year. Dependents must also be residents to be eligible for coverage. — Black Press

Rotary Awareness Month The Rotary Club Of

Brentwood Bay

Rotary Club of Brentwood Bay volunteers staff the Sugar Shack at the Saanich Fair each fall.

Members of the Rotary Club of Brentwood Bay.

he Rotary Club of Brentwood Bay was chartered on Oct. 3rd, 1981. Originally the club met at the old Brentwood Bay Inn but over the past 31 years the club has been hosted by several establishments in the Central Saanich area. Now the club enjoys the amazing meals and comfortable ambiance of Zanzibar Café, where meetings are held every Tuesday at noon. Being a small club at just 20 members, we all know each other and the meetings are relaxed and fun. We are also fortunate to attract a variety of speakers and presenters who make our meetings educational and informative. The Rotary Club of Brentwood Bay carries out fundraising activities throughout the year. Our major fundraising event happens at the Saanich Fair each fall where the club runs a concession booth, affectionately named The Sugar Shack. During the fair all of our members, along with their spouses, family and friends, pitch in to sell candy Àoss, snow cones, hot dogs and our ever popular soft ice cream. In April we team up with The Centre for Active Living 50+ in Brentwood Bay to host Antiques Revisited. This popular event offers attendees the opportunity to bring in their antiques to be valued by professional appraisers.

Don’t let hearing loss become a big problem...

Donna M. Stewart

Audiologist/Rotarian

This year the club will be partnering with the MS Society of Southern Vancouver Island to hold a Gala Nite Out at the Church and State Winery on May 4. The event promises to be an exciting evening with an auction, entertainment, a plated gourmet dinner and wine. Local media personality Ed Bain will be on hand as emcee. Funds raised at all Brentwood Rotary functions go to support international and local projects. The club uses some of these funds to support the African Community Project which sees rural communities across Zambia educated about the importance of the environment that surrounds them through the establishment of tree nurseries. In previous years the club has completed a clean water and educational project in Orit, la Villa de San Antonia, Honduras. This involved constructing a reservoir and gravity feed pipeline, to provide the village with clean, safe drinking water. The Club Rotario Comayagua in Honduras assisted us by overseeing and monitoring the project. Prior to this project, we had partnered with the Harbourside Rotary Club to provide water to the village of El Espino, in Honduras. The club has also funded water wells in Kitogata, Uganda, and Northern India, a girls dormitory in Katesh,

Tanzania, provided an emergency generator for Mengo Hospital, in Kampala, Uganda, as well as supporting National Immunisation Days worldwide to eradicate Polio. A recent book drive initiated by a member produced 1500 new and gently used books to be shipped to countries in need to start libraries for children. Locally, the club provides manpower and ¿nancial support for the Terry Fox Run and the MS Carnation Fund raiser, as well as awarding the Darcy Lazarz Scholarship at Stelly’s Secondary School annually. The club has also contributed funds for new equipment to the Saanich Peninsula Hospital Palliative Care Unit and to the Mount Newton Centre. Sluggett House received an emergency generator to help provide comfort and safety of the residents during power outages and we have enabled a hoop court to be built in Chatterton Park so the local teens have a place to shoot hoops. A donation to Sea Change, a local environmental group, also planted eelgrass in the Saanich Inlet. If you are interested in presenting to our club or becoming a member you are welcome to contact our president Gary Nason at 250-658-0672.

When the solution can be this small.

A portion of the profit of every hearing aid sold is donated to local and international charities through Rotary.

he Rotary Club of Sidney was chartered Aug. 14, 1946. Since it was formed, the club has sponsored the formation of three other clubs, the Salt Spring Island Rotary Club, the Brentwood Rotary Club and the Sidney by the Sea Rotary Club. The Sidney Rotary Club is a dinner club, which meets at the Glen Meadows Golf Course every Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. The club has been involved in many local and international projects, along with providing scholarships and youth training opportunities for the youth in the area. The following are some examples of our participation in both the community and abroad. On the international front, the Rotary Club of Sidney has provided funds for clean water projects in many Central and South American towns and villages. Recently, we have also provided funds to build latrines in Kakuma, Kenya for children. We have also purchased over 100 EcoKalan stoves for a Habitat for Humanity project near Dumageti City in the Philippines. At home, the Rotary Club of Sidney has been very active in the community. The Saanich Fair has been operating for more than 130 years. Our club has been involved with the fair since 1953. We brought the ¿rst children’s rides to the fair along with establishing the children’s games and games of chance for the adults. We are also present at Sidney’s Canada Day Celebrations with our children’s games. The operation of the children’s games and games of chance is the major fundraiser for the club each year. The club donates to the Admiral Budge Sea Cadets for their participation in helping run the games at the Fall Fair. These funds have allowed the Rotary Club of Sidney to help our community in many ways. Our club helped build the non-pro¿t Wake¿eld Manor, the Rotary Baseball Park, adjacent to the Victoria Airport and the original bandstand at the end of Beacon Avenue. The club has provided the Town of Sidney with a town clock on Beacon Avenue, established the Heart Smart Walk along the Sidney waterfront and purchased a de¿brillator for the Mary Winspear Centre. We have also assisted the North Saanich Fire Department purchase two thermal imaging cameras for ¿re¿ghting safety, purchased the ¿rst set of jaws of life for the Sidney Fire Department, paid for the printing of a fundraising cookbook to assist Jeneece Endroff in her goal to raise funds for B.C. children with special needs and assisted at the Shoal Centre by

rebuilding a fence. Our club collaborated with the Brentwood and Sidney by the Sea Rotary clubs to provide furnishings for the palliative care unit at the Saanich Peninsula Hospital and contributed to the purchase of laparoscopic equipment for their new operating room. Sidney Rotary also operated the most successful blood donor clinic in the province for more than 40 years. Recently we have provided funds to the Haliburton Community Organic Farm Society to construct a building to house a large freezer. Other recent fundraisers held by the Sidney Rotary Club include “Blush – A Taste of the Peninsula” held at the Mary Winspear Centre, the Swap & Shop held at the Panorama Recreation Centre as well as a Road Rally. With funds raised from these events, we have been able to assist the Mt. Newton Centre to support ongoing programs bene¿ting seniors in our community, a donation to the Parkland Grads, Kakuma Kids educational supplies, Extreme Teen events at Bayside School and the Panorama Recreation Centre. We also helped to support the Grade 3 water safety and swim program for all children on the peninsula. Sidney Rotarians have also been involved in staf¿ng the Salvation Army Kettles during the Christmas Season. The youth in our community hold the key to our future, and the Rotary Club of Sidney has been very active in this area. We provide two $1,000 scholarships each year for graduating students from Parkland and Stelly’s secondary schools to further their education in British Columbia. Each year we send a student to Ottawa as part of Rotary’s Adventures in Citizenship and we send a student to the Rotary Youth Leadership Assembly in Tacoma, WA. In recent years, we have sent students to Adventures in Technology in Saskatchewan to learn about careers in the technical ¿eld of science and industry. Along with the Sidney by the Sea and Brentwood Rotary Clubs, our members also assisted in presenting the Junior Achievement program at Parkland school in 2009 and have donated library books to the local elementary schools. This year, The Rotary Club of Sidney sent two Rotary Youth Exchange Students out for a one year cultural exchange; one to Sweden and the second to Thailand. We are also currently hosting a Rotary Youth Exchange Student from Denmark in our community who is attending Parkland Secondary.

otary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional and community leaders. Members of Rotary clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations and help build goodwill and peace in the world. Rotary believes in service activities and projects in a broad range of humanitarian, intercultural and educational activities, designed to improve human conditions among communities worldwide. The motto that drives Rotarians is a simple formula — Service above Self. Sidney by the Sea Rotary Club is a great mix of people, projects, and provides an easy and fantastic opportunity to meet people who want to make a difference to our local and international community. Our forty members, their families and over 100 local companies, raise in excess of $50,000 each year to support local projects, student exchanges and worldwide international peace and health initiatives. Over this past year our club has supported such diverse local projects such as Jeneece Place, the North Saanich Free Ride Bike Park, the Victoria Disabled Riding Association and various Panorama Recreation Centre youth programs. Last July saw the culmination of almost six years of effort by our club to raise the funds for the refurbishment of Iroquois Park and the grand opening of the Rotary Water Spray Park. On an international front PolioPlus — the campaign to eradicate Polio — is a key focus. We have shipped medical supplies to Africa, supported a fantastic program called Sleeping Children Around the World and this year we will be partnering with Mercy Ships and a number of other Rotary Clubs throughout the world to enhance a surgical program

Thank You Rotarians.

‘Watch & Jewellery Repairs’ aboard the ship in the Republic of Guinea. Fundraising projects are as diverse as our funding programs. The Monte Carlo event has become our signature event, which is an evening of music, casino, food and auctions which gives every member a chance to participate. The event draws in 500-plus guests and scores of businesses. The Saanich Fall Fair is spent working with the other Peninsula Rotary clubs and is a lot of fun. In between concerts, Àower sales, car washes and other programs in conjunction with fantastic support from the business community, our club generates the income to support these important community needs. We are proud to support an international student exchange each year as well, by hosting a student for a year in our homes and supporting a student from our community to go abroad and experience a new culture. But, the Sidney By the Sea Rotary Club is not all about work. Our meetings feature great speakers and we hold socials throughout the year to provide opportunities to exchange ideas and laughs over drinks and food. Club members can take on as much or as little as they can and men and women from all backgrounds, vocations and age groups are the key to a successful club. Please consider coming as our guest to a meeting to see what Rotary and the Sidney by the Sea club is all about. We meet every Thursday morning at 7 a.m. at the Shoal Centre in Sidney. Please visit www.sidneybythesearotary.ca or email heinmoes@ invis.ca for more information. Come and help us make a difference in your community while having some fun along the way!

The Peninsula Panthers made three big player moves last Thursday and then captured a 3-2 shootout win on Friday night in front of a large crowd at the Panorama Recreation Centre. Thursday morning, the loss of defenceman Spencer Loverock was the first change as he was scooped by the Salmon Arm Silverbacks of the BCHL, a move which will allow the 17-year-old to move up to the Junior A level and continue his goal of getting an NCAA scholarship. Defenceman Patrick Croome was moved to the Comox Valley Glacier Kings and forward Cole Golka was sent to the Saanich Braves. Despite the moves less than 24-hours earlier, the Panthers outshot the Kerry Park Islanders 55-28 during Friday night’s game. The score was tied after regulation time and five minutes of overtime. Will Finlay and Nathan Looysen scored in the shootout while Panthers’ net-

Peninsula’s Cole Glover gets in close to the net during game action last Friday night against the Kerry Park Islanders. minder Stephen Heslop stopped all three Islander shooters to give the squad the win. Forward Ben Meek scored both regulation time goals for Peninsula. “This was a huge win for our club,” said head coach Brian Passmore after Friday’s game. “There will be lots of wins ahead but tonight it was important to

move on from the three moves and now we can.” The Panthers host the Saanich Braves Friday evening and then again next Tuesday night, Jan. 22, in a makeup game that was cancelled Dec. 9. Both games will see the puck drop at 7:30 p.m. reporter@peninsula newsreview.com

ISLANDS TRUST NORTH PENDER ISLAND LOCAL TRUST COMMITTEE NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE is hereby given that the North Pender Island Local Trust Committee will hold a community information meeting and a public hearing within a Local Trust Committee Special Meeting on: • Proposed Bylaw No. 187 – cited as “North Pender Associated Islands Land Use Bylaw 148, 2003, Amendment No. 1, 2011”; and • Proposed Bylaw No. 189 – cited as “North Pender Associated Islands Ofﬁcial Community Plan Bylaw No. 147, 2002, Amendment No. 1, 2011” for the purpose of allowing the public to make representations to the Local Trust Committee respecting matters contained in the proposed bylaw at 11:00 a.m., Saturday, January 26, 2013, at Mary Winspear Cultural Centre at Sanscha, Activity Room 2A, 2243 Beacon Avenue, Sidney, BC At the public hearing all persons who believe that their interest in property is affected by the proposed bylaws shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard or to present written submissions respecting matters contained in the proposed bylaws. Proposed Bylaw No. 187 – cited as “North Pender Associated Islands Land Use Bylaw 148, 2003, Amendment No. 1, 2011” In general terms, the purpose of Proposed Bylaw No. 187 is to amend the Land Use Bylaw as it pertains to Sidney Island only. The substantive amendments include: permitting a storage building on a lot without a residence (with restrictions), allowing a second care-taker residence on common property, restricting the maximum ﬂoor area of a dwelling, restricting the storage of recreation vehicles, and changing the zoning for the covenant areas on the common property to ‘Conservation’. The bylaw would also update the permitted density in the Sidney Island Comprehensive Development zone after subdivision has been completed. Throughout the Land Use Bylaw there are also many numeric cross references to be corrected. The covenant areas to be zoned as conservation are shown on the maps below.

Proposed Bylaw No. 189 – cited as “North Pender Associated Islands Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 147, 2002, Amendment No. 1, 2011” s de ed In general terms, the purpose of Proposed Bylaw No. 189 is to amend the Official Community Plan by introducing two new Development Permit Areas that would be applicable to Sidney Island only. One development permit area relates to geotechnical hazard areas and is based on an existing covenant; the lands affected are shown on the map below. The second development permit area applies to land within 15 metres of the natural boundary of the sea and development along the shoreline. The covenant areas shown above would also be designated as ‘Resource Conservation’ in the OCP. General amendments also include a new policy about regulating floor area would be introduced, updating the temporary use permit section to reflect recent changes to the Local Government Act, and designating and referring to the Development Approval Information Bylaw which outlines the information required for applications to be considered. A copy of the proposed bylaws and any background material that may be considered by the Trust Committee in respect of the proposed bylaws may be inspected at the Islands Trust Office, #200 - 1627 Fort Street, Victoria, B.C. between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, inclusive, excluding statutory holidays, commencing January 11, 2013 and up to and including January 24, 2013. For the convenience of the public only, and not to satisfy Section 892(2) (e) of the Local Government Act, additional copies of the proposed bylaws may be inspected at various Notice Boards on North Pender Island, B.C., commencing January 11, 2013. The proposed bylaws can also be viewed on the internet at www.islandstrust.bc.ca and selecting www.islandstrust.bc.ca/ltc/np/bylaws.cfm

Curling challenge every five years Continued from page 15

Glen Meadows Curling Club event coordinator Dan Eakins said the hosts plan to greet the five Scottish teams (four who will be playing and one in reserve) with bagpipes and a ceremonial guard bearing curling brooms at around 12:30 p.m. on Jan. 16 (today). That time, he added, depends on how soon the visitors finish games at the Victoria Curling Club earlier that morning. The five Scottish curling teams are part of a 15-team contingent in Canada right now, competing in the west, central Canada and the east coast. It’s the 105th Strathcona Cup — named for Lord Strathcona who donated the trophy as the president of the Royal Caledonia Curling Club back on the early 1900s. The international event started in 1902-03, when curlers from the Royal Caledonia Club toured the U.S. and Canada. This set in motion reciprocal visits every five years. Eakins said Canadians took the cup five years ago in Scotland. Those players included Glen Meadows players such as David Giles, who was on the last Canadian tour in 2009. “This is an international event coming to our club,” Eakins said. Scottish curlers apply as teams and individuals to be on the touring group — as do Canadians when its this country’s turn to travel abroad. The visitors’ trip into North Saanich today is early in their western tour. After playing at Glen Meadows, they travel to Calgary, Edmonton and Red Deer before continuing east as far as the Manitoba border with Saskatchewan. To win back the cup from Canada, Eakins explained the Scots will have to earn the most points overall, win or lose. “The scores comes down to all of the ends,” he said. “It’s the total of all points scored.” Eakins agreed that this rule could lead to teams running up the scores — much like curling skins games. Games at Glen Meadows are scheduled to start at 1 p.m.

I can hardly wait for the next growing season

oday it is sunny with lovely, fat white clouds drifting across the sky. What a wonderful change from the recent dull, rainy days. It gives a body some hope that spring can’t be far away! I know it is January, but please don’t spoil my dream by reminding me of that. Actually I can back up my lovely thoughts by telling you that there are snowdrops in bloom in some gardens, including our former place on Melissa Street. They are a sweet promise of all the lovely things to come (in the garden, of course. I can’t promise anything else, although I wish I could!). I remember the Staples garden on Amherst Street was full of snowdrops right beside the sidewalk, showing everyone passing by that spring was almost here. Actually the other day, while out walking, I saw two brave calendula plants displaying bright orange flowers despite several nights of frost. Calendula may not be everyone’s favourite, but they have enough hardiness and cheeky brightness to impress us when winter strikes down almost every other flowering plant. Obviously, I am one of their admirers. One thing that I’ve noticed is that some of the ornamental grasses are still looking pretty spry, the ones with small heads standing up the best. They are not really much of a stand-out during the summer, when they

Helen Lang Over the Garden Fence have to compete with all the vivid colours of the flowering plants but now, when there are few of these, they come into their own, their long stems with their attractive seed heads wafting about in every breeze. I wish there was room on my

balcony for one or two of these, but there isn’t if I am to have room to move around out there at all. I think I mentioned I plan to plant several sunflowers from the seed given out by the office of Elizabeth May. That will pretty well take care of any vacant space. It may not look like a well-planned garden, but hopefully, although it won’t win any prizes for beauty, it will supply me with both food and pleasure during our next growing season. Oh boy! I can hardly wait! Helen Lang has been the Peninsula News Review’s garden columnist for more than 30 years.

FAMILY ANNOUNCEMENTS

DEATHS

Rod (Roderick) Charles Pringle Born in Vancouver, BC, February 26, 1929. Rod passed away in Victoria, January 3, 2013 in the loving presence of his daughter and grandchildren, who were greatly supported by his nephew Dan. Rod is survived by his much loved wife Colleen, son Rod, daughter Kealey and grandchildren Emerald and Kelt. He will also be missed by his sister-in-law Mary, nephews Dan (Jill, Erin and Annie) and Eric (Sandy and Owen) and niece Lisa Kerr (Doug, Geoff and Iain). He was, and taught others to be: kind, loving, compassionate, gentle, sweet, accepting, forgiving, patient, honourable, generous, selfless, respectful, true, humble, stoic, stalwart, polite, passionate, determined, faithful, dependable, and constant. Rod loved to spend time with his family and we loved being with him. He had many lifetime friendships. Rod had a quiet, charming, clever wit. He enjoyed gardening, sailing, playing bridge and being outdoors. Rod loved being in the woods and on the coast, especially in any boat. He built a nutshell pram (row/sail boat). Rod lived with his mother, father and brother Geoff (predeceased) in Vancouver. He attended schools in Vancouver, White Rock and New Westminster. Rod worked for the BC Forest Service and while stationed in Squirrel Cove, courted the local Lund school teacher. Rod and Colleen (nee Kealey) married in 1952 (60 years). They lived in Squirrel Cove, Alert Bay, Vancouver, Nanaimo, Britannia Beach, Burnaby, Vernon, Sidney and Victoria. Rod was Class President of the UBC BSF Class of 1957. Rod received his Registered Professional Forester status in 1970, retired in 1988 and was awarded a lifetime membership for his contribution to the forestry profession. Rod worked for several forestry companies, as well as his own consulting firm, in various places in BC, including Vancouver, Nanaimo, Britannia Beach and Vernon. After retirement and the family grown, Colleen and Rod left the family home on the lake in Vernon and moved to Sidney where Rod could be by the salt chuck again and close to his grandkids. Rod was a person who believed in being involved in the community. Notably, he was a School Board Trustee in Vernon, the president of the BC Schizophrenia Society, and a councillor with the Association of BC Forest Professionals. Rod and Colleen were also members of a Unitarian Fellowship in Vernon. Rod wrote, “I leave with gratitude for my life, loved ones and friends”. The family sends much gratitude to the VIHA paramedics and the nurses in the Intensive Care Unit at the Royal Jubilee Hospital. A service will be held in the spring. Donations can be made to the Forestry Class of 57, University of British Columbia Alumni Fund. Condolences can be given at earthsoption.com.

McConnell, Edie September 22, 1918 - January 1, 2013 On January 1, 2013, Edie passed on peacefully in her sleep surrounded by family. She will be dearly missed by daughter, Colleen McConnell of Victoria, BC and son, John McConnell of Wetaskiwin, AB and their spouses; her grandchildren, Shane, Corinna Mary and spouses, plus 5 great-grandchildren, as well as step-grandchildren, Nick and Misha, their spouses and 3 children. Predeceased by 10 siblings, she is mourned by brother, Len Rattai and sister, Annie Gilmour of Calgary and many nieces and nephews. A much loved Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother, Sister, Aunt and Friend, Edie is remembered for her generous heart and her love of home, garden and music. Her eternal courage, optimism and openness to the challenges life presented are an example few could match. Born on a homestead farm in Mannville, Alberta, she developed a strong work ethic in a life fraught with many challenges but always preferred to give rather than receive and never complained, even in her last painful year. She retired at 72 and moved at age 80 from Edmonton to Summergate Village in Sidney, BC and in her later years she enjoyed much happiness. Love, kindness, generosity, courage, creativity and honesty are a just few words that define Edie. She loved family, friends, strangers and animals unconditionally and her acts of kindness extended to many, putting others before herself. She had the courage to fight the battles before her and for others and would never back down in the face of adversity. Right to the end, her music entertained all and her exceptionally beautiful flower garden gave her and others great happiness. In her last years, she enjoyed the company of fellow musicians as she played her self-taught accordion, violin and harmonicas with the Sidney Acoustic Jam Group, Victoria Bluegrass Jammers, the Victoria Fiddle Club, and the Victoria Accordion Club. She played music regularly with beloved son-in-law David and during her last 15 months they entertained the residents and staff at Mt. Tolmie Hospital, where she endeared herself to many and is known for greeting others with “I love you.” Ninety-four years of love, laughter, helping, caring, sharing, going the extra mile, of making life better for others. Words fail to express her good deeds and love and time will not diminish them. Fond memories of her are left for us to celebrate.

B.C. auditor-general John Doyle out in May New financial watchdog to replace long-serving AG Tom Fletcher Black Press

After shaking up the B.C. government’s financial affairs, Auditor General John Doyle will be replaced by a new financial watchdog when his six-year term expires at the end of May. Rules for the fivemember MLA committee that appoints auditors require them to maintain secrecy on who didn’t support Doyle’s reappointment, which required unani-

mous support. NDP leader Adrian Dix said it’s clear it was one or more B.C. Liberal MLAs who voted against Doyle’s reappointment. “This is clearly a bad decision, not one that the NDP supports, not one that I support,” Dix said Monday. Opposition MLAs cite Doyle’s reports criticizing the recent buildup of BC Hydro debt and the state of B.C.’s forest inventory in the wake of a devastating pine beetle epidemic as likely reasons

Sidney company moves offices to Langford SIDNEY— In roadway emergencies, traffic control will now arrive on scene sooner around the West Shore and on the Malahat. Saanich Peninsula Rentals, now under the umbrella of the Mainroad Group in Surrey, has been re-branded as SPR Traffic Services and moved its offices from Sidney to Langford. “We can now get up the Malahat with a quicker response time,” said Darren Ell, SPR general manager. Langford provides a more central location for emergency responses around the West Shore and areas around Victoria, he added. The company provided traffic control services after recent rock slides on the Malahat Drive, as well as for car crashes in the area. “We used to rent out small tools, but now we are just going to focus on traffic control,” Ell said. — News staff

why Doyle wasn’t reappointed. Doyle is also leading a court action seeking release of detailed defence lawyer billings for former ministerial aides Dave Basi and Bobby Virk, whose $6 million in legal costs were covered by the province after they pleaded guilty to breach of trust in the 2002 sale

of B.C. Rail operations. Dix called Monday for Premier Christy Clark to intervene and ask the MLA committee to reconsider its decision to hire a new auditor. A spokesman for the premier quickly ruled that option out. Ben Chin, Clark’s communications director, said Clark has maintained a policy of not

interfering in legislative committees, such as a cosmetic pesticide committee that disagreed with her call for a ban. “You can’t send the committee back to work because you don’t like the conclusion they reach,” Chin said. Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster, who chairs the selection
