Little support for public garden at Commonwealth Survey outcomes mixed for expanded allotment gardens Kyle Slavin News staff
Saanich may have its work cut out for itself after open houses found mixed public reaction to two proposed community allotment gardens in the municipality. The first, planned for Gorge Park, received 77.3 per cent support, according to survey results. While 116 of the 151 respondents said they supported a garden in Gorge Park, 134 respondents backed Saanich’s plan to put more allotment gardens in the municipality. The second proposed garden, currently slated for a parcel of grass behind Saanich Commonwealth Place, received far less support. Out of 340 survey respondents, 201 – or 59 per cent – opposed the location. Earlier this year, residents living near the Commonwealth plot of land expressed concern about losing part of a large field that is regularly used by sports and fitness groups to a small number of gardeners. Doug Henderson, Saanich’s director of parks and recreation, said the land, since it was donated to Saanich in 2002, was always identified as being transformed into something other than a grass field. “Certainly, we can be optimistic about the Gorge Park proposal,” said Mayor Frank Leonard, acknowledging the garden proposals will have to come through advisory committee and committee of the whole meetings. “Maybe there’s a compromise at Royal Oak, I don’t know. But it’s either no or compromise – I don’t think (a community garden is) going to fly there the way it is now.” kslavin@saanichnews.com

Pets in Saanich now a little safer Charity group donates animal oxygen masks to Saanich FD Kyle Slavin News staff
Saving the lives of every member of the family got a little easier this week for Saanich firefighters, who were given sets of oxygen masks designed to help resuscitate Fido and Fluffy. The six oxygen masks fit over the snout, nose or beak of pets of all sizes, and can
be hooked up to an oxygen tank like a mask designed for humans. “Over the years we have come across dogs, cats, birds, after a house fire, and we’ve tried to utilize equipment that’s designed for people to help resuscitate the animals,” said deputy fire chief Frank Macdonald. “This gives us the ability to provide a higher level of care to any animal that we come across.” Glenn Sergius, president of Canine Benefactors Society, which gifted the oxygen masks, says the devices are identical to the ones used by veterinarians when an animal goes in for surgery. “Our organization tries to raise money
to buy these veterinary oxygen masks and we hope to be able to equip all fire and rescue departments, so they can use them to rescue all animals: dogs, cats, birds, snakes, gerbils.” Even before putting the masks into practice, Macdonald said the department will buy another couple sets, as they will be a valuable tool on the job. Saanich is believed to be the first fire department in Greater Victoria to be using the animal oxygen masks.

SAANICH May 24, 2013 SAANICH NEWS NEWS -- Friday, Friday, May 24, 2013
Elderly man injured in home invasion An 85-year-old Saanich man and his 59-year-old daughter were both injured in a random home invasion Monday night. Around 10:20 p.m. a man forced his way through the front door of a home in the 3500block of James Heights, on the west side of the Cedar Hill golf course. Sgt. Steve Eassie says the intruder – described as being in his late 20s or early 30s – physically assaulted the elderly man and his daughter. The woman was able to escape to a neighbour’s house to call police. Both victims were injured in the attack. The 89-year-old man remains hospitalized with serious head injuries, police say. Eassie says investigators haven’t been able to determine a motive for home invasion, adding “there are no indications that the victims of this crime were involved in any activities that could have led them to be targets of such an attack.” Police say the victims didn’t know their attacker. The suspect remains at large. He is described as being a six-foot-tall white male with a heavy build. He was wearing a white T-shirt and dark pants. Eassie says a 1999 brown Toyota Camry with B.C. licence plate HWM 644 was stolen from the home. Anyone with information on this attack or the vehicle can call police at 250-475-4356 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. kslavin@saanichnews. com
A sealed home, a new high in energy efficiency ‘Passive house’ built in Saanich aims to cut heating costs by 90% Edward Hill News staff
With more windows than walls peering on towering oak trees in the backyard, Mark Bernhardt’s house doesn’t look like a hermetically sealed vault. Yet in terms of heat retention, this is one of the most air-tight and energy efficient residential buildings in North America. Windows and windowed exterior doors are triplepaned, gasket sealed and insulated. Its walls are twice as thick as a conventional house. “This is our furnace here,” says Mark, pointing to the oversized south-facing windows that allow sunlight to stream in for most of the day. “That is the first thing you’ll notice – big windows on the south side and small on the north. The doors are more like vault doors – a tight seal with no draft,” adds Rob Bernhardt, the project manager and Mark’s father. “There is high solar heat gain. It lets the sun in and the heat can’t get out.” Mark, 30, and Rob, 60, have designed and built Greater Victoria and Vancouver Island’s first “passive house.” It’s a building they hope will meet the standard of the International Passive House Association. It should cut heating costs by 90 per cent, primarily through its design, orientation and insulation. “I needed a house. Rather than do the ordinary thing, I came across (passive homes),” says Mark, a commercial building general contractor. “This made sense from an economic standpoint. It’s not a more expensive house to build.” A critical element alongside the highly insulated, nearly air-tight building envelope is its high-performance air ventilation system, which warms incoming fresh air with outgoing used air through a heat exchange. “Modelled heating costs for this house come in at $168 per year,” Mark says. “My current house I paid $400 in December alone with a highefficiency gas furnace.” In June, the Bernhardt clan will move into the 3,800-square-foot home at 1535 Oak Crest Dr. in Saa-
Mark, left, and Rob Bernhardt designed and built Vancouver Island’s first “passive house,” an ultraefficient home in Saanich that seals in heat and uses ventilation to keep rooms at comfortable temperatures, while using almost no power. Here, Mark holds a prop that shows the triplepaned windows used in the house. Edward Hill/News staff
nich – Mark and his family upstairs and his parents in the legal lower suite – after appliances are installed and tours are finished. The original home on the property was trucked to a new location in Langford. The Bernhardts have given civic leaders, property developers, engineers and real estate agents home tours to show that innovative “green” houses aren’t difficult to build and can be done for about the same price as a modern home. The passive house cost about $740,000 versus about $710,000 for a comparable wood frame building, according to the Bernhardt’s cost breakdown. Framing, insulation and windows cost more, but savings came with heating and air management systems, instead of a furnace or baseboard electric. Far lower monthly energy costs are expected to offset the higher mortgage cost. “With high-quality windows and doors, there’s no draft and even temperatures through the house,” Rob says. “You spend more on windows and doors, you spend less on the heating system.” The house is plumbed for solar panels, photovoltaics and solar hot water, although Mark says the energy cost savings at this point would be negligible. A 100-squarefeet of solar panels would take the
“house off the grid,” he says. Green City Solutions, a non-profit firm that worked with the Bernhardts on energy modelling, expects the Saanich home to easily exceed the International Passive Home standards.
“This house is significantly more efficient than new homes built to code. This is a new breed of super-efficient homes.” – Peter Sundberg Green City Solutions Torsten Ely, Green City’s building energy analyst, expects to finish efficiency testing on the house this week or next. Ely oversaw “blower” testing on the building before the drywall went up, which over and under-pressurizes the home to gauge air leakage. A typical post-Second World War house in Victoria has enough cumulative leaks and cracks to form a hole 45 centimetres in diameter. A modern house would have a hole on the order of 30 to 35 cm. Ely said the Bernardt’s house had the equivalent leakage of a 5.5 cm hole. “This would make the house
the second most air-tight in North America,” Ely said. The most airtight is in New Brunswick. “There is good reason to believe the final tests will be better.” Peter Sundberg, the executive director of Green City Solutions, said in terms of other “green” building standards, such as BuiltGreen and LEED for homes, passive home design is about as good as it gets. “Each program has its place ... but passive homes are among the pinnacle of energy efficient homes. It’s great to see this happening,” Sundberg said. “This house is significantly more efficient than new homes built to code. This is a new breed of superefficient homes.” Sundberg also noted that the passive house construction process is well within the ability of most developers and trades in Greater Victoria. There’s been a general assumption from developers and the homebuying public that high efficiency homes are extremely expensive and technically difficult, he said. “Passive home is a high standard, but its definitely an achievable standard that many developers in Victoria could build, if there was a demand.” See bernhardtpassive.com. editor@saanichnews.com

Wi-Fi debate rages on School board trustees defeat motion to purchase RF meter Natalie North News staff
Greater Victoria board of education trustees have once again heard impassioned arguments on the safety of Wi-Fi, and the debate isn’t likely to end any time soon. Trustee Deborah Nohr, during an operations, policy and planning meeting on May 13, brought forward a motion to purchase a radiofrequency (RF) meter to regularly monitor electromagnetic radiation levels and ensure all are within limits set to a precautionary level of 1,000 microwatts per squaremetre. While the motion went unsupported by the committee on May 13, despite commentary from invited guests speaking to electromagnetic exposure and RF meters, the loss by no means marks an end to the questions around wireless Internet use in elementary schools. “While we’re getting all these (Internet) access points in our schools, we have no idea if we’re meeting Health Canada’s standards,” said Nohr. Nohr would like to see a meter brought to schools for testing, similar to how air

Wireless Internet had been installed in every high school and one elementary prior to the committee’s formation. The issue lay untouched for some time before last November when the board passed a motion to review documentation from the Vancouver Island Health Authority, the provincial health officer, Health Canada and the

World Health Organization, as well as written submissions from the public with regard to the use of Wi-Fi in schools. The Victoria Confederation of Parent Advisory Councils is currently drafting a survey for all parents to weigh in this spring before the board makes any final decisions on Wi-Fi use. “There’s been a fairly strong lobby from parents who are opposed and there hasn’t been a lot from other parents,” said John Bird, president of VCPAC. “It’s safety on the one hand and educational opportunity on the other: those are really the two sides of the issue,” Bird said. Board chair Peg Orcherton said those opposed to the use of wireless technology in schools belong to a small but vocal group and the discussion could benefit from the balance offered by a broader parent survey. The issue is further muddied by experts arguing all sides of Wi-Fi use. “It’s difficult,” Orcherton said. “I look at their CVs and they look very professional and very knowledgable, then I look at the other side and I see the same thing. I’m not a scientist, but I am interested in kids’ safety, so we’ll see where it goes.”

Laura Sawchuk and Olivia Belcher-Coward are ready for the real world. The two St. Margaret's School students have spent the last four years gathering the skills and know-how to ensure life doesn't pass them by. The 17-year-olds, who are preparing to graduate in June, last week earned their gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award, for having committed the time and effort into becoming well-rounded, globally minded citizens. “It's kept us on a good path throughout high school, which is a time when many people get lost,” Sawchuk said of the Award. “This has given us confidence within ourselves that we have the ability – if we want to do something and we put our mind to it, we can.” The two Grade 12 students, along with St. Margaret's classmate Lily Li, were among 100 young British Columbians who received the gold award last Saturday in a ceremony at Government House. Nathan How, 17, a Grade 12 Mount Douglas secondary student, also picked up an award for his work raising money for projects in Africa, volunteering with the B.C. Cancer Agency at the Jubilee Hospital on breast cancer research, and for his piano skills at the Royal Conservatory of Music. His Royal Highness, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, handed out the awards. The Duke of Edinburgh's Awards is a program for young Canadians that provide them with skills and experiences that help build character and selfconfidence and prepare them for life.

Laura Sawchuk, left, and Olivia Belcher-Coward, both Grade 12 students at St. Margaret’s School, earned their gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award last week. To satisfy the criteria, the girls travelled to Mexico and Costa Rica for humanitarian work.
Nathan How In the last four years, while working to earn the Gold award, Sawchuk has pushed herself out of her comfort zone to help build a school in Mexico. She's also maintained an active life, balancing schoolwork with interests in figure skating and singing. Belcher-Coward travelled to Costa Rica and helped do renovations at a school. She's been a regular volunteer at a soup kitchen in Sidney, while also focusing on hobbies such as ballet and piano. “You have to log all your hours,” she said of one of the requirements to earn the award.

From her volunteer hours to the time she committed to piano, it all adds up as she worked towards exploring her potential. “When I look back at my log book, it's pretty surprising to see how much I've actually done; how many hours I've put into my community and myself in the past four years,” BelcherCoward said. “It's been a huge commitment to do it, but it's going to pay off.” Victoria-area students Shane Jagdis, Tamara Post, Genevieve Penny, Harrison Duncan, Kate Bourne, Katherine Fretz, Cameron Rice-Gural, and Katherine Adams also received awards from Prince Andrew last weekend.

Meeting for clay courts at Cedar Hill A plan to build eight clay tennis courts behind Cedar Hill Recreation Centre is expected to come before Saanich council later this summer. But residents are invited to a meeting Tuesday (May 28) to take a look at changes to the original proposal. Members from the Cedar Hill Clay Court Tennis Society will speak on plans to build eight clay courts, a 1,000-square-foot tennis pavilion and public seating atop the two existing ball diamonds and grass field. John Miller, on behalf of the tennis society, told the News ear-
lier this year its members “will put up the money to build and operate the facility and then give Saanich court time to the community for lessons.” He equates the plan for a private facility to a community partnership model Saanich takes advantage of with soccer, lawn bowling and squash groups. In a fall 2012 survey of Cedar Hill park users, the biggest piece of research done to date, 698 of the 901 respondents said they were in favour of a non-profit society to manage a clay court tennis facility with public access, at the Cedar Hill rec centre.
The survey did demonstrate that not everybody is in favour of more tennis courts. John Schmuck, president of the Quadra-Cedar Hill Community Association, acknowledged there remains a lot of opposition in the community to the proposal. The association has acted as a facilitator in the consultation process between residents and the tennis society. The meeting takes place on Tuesday at 7 p.m. on the senior’s wing of the Cedar Hill rec centre (3220 Cedar Hill Rd.). –with files from Travis Paterson kslavin@saanichnews.com

say he continued southbound and struck the concrete highway median. A set of golf clubs and parts of his truck were left strewn along the highway. Police caught up with the man and stopped him on Royal Oak Drive near Elk Lake Drive. A 29-year-old man was arrested for impaired driving. His blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit. A secondary crash occurred as a result of the impaired driver, when a vehicle struck the downed lamppost near Elk Lake. Police are asking anyone who may have witnessed other minor incidents involving the black Ford F150 Saturday morning to call investigators at 250-475-4321.

OUR VIEW
Entering the era of efficient homes V
ictoria has come a long way from the days of big drafty homes with thin single-pane windows, no insulation in the walls and heated by large inefficient furnaces. These days new homes come with lowflush toilets and double panes, energy efficient appliances and better overall construction to keep indoor environments comfortable for as low a cost as possible. In reality, this is the tip of the iceberg in terms of home energy efficiency. Heating through oil or natural gas or electric isn’t getting cheaper and huge strides can still be made in terms of “normal” efficiency for the average home. Provincial and federal governments need to fund continuous and much more aggressive incentive programs to actually make a dent in terms of energy savings for homeowners. Successful provincial subsidy programs such as LiveSmart B.C., according to its website, invested $110 million into home energy upgrades and has helped homeowners cut their heating bills from 15 to 28 per cent. Despite this, LiveSmart ended on March 31 this year (FortisBC and BC Hydro have extended aspects of the program for another year). Programs to improve homes shouldn’t be a passing fad – it’s one of the most direct ways governments can help its residents save money. From the passive home recently built in Saanich that will likely have a heating bill 90 per cent less than an equivalent conventional home, its clear that there is a lot of room for improvement in home design, and for a price that demands a little more up front in return for utility bill savings each month. The Eco-Sense house in Highlands too – a house made of cob, that generates its own power from photovoltaics and solar panels, and recycles its grey water and wastewater – demonstrates that homes don’t have to be outrageously wasteful and damaging entities on the landscape. B.C. is looking to upgrade its building code for better minimum efficiency standards. This can’t come quick enough. The technology to build affordable, highly energy efficient homes is here. Developers need to provide it, and home buyers need to demand it. What do you think? Give us your comments by e-mail: editor@saanichnews.com or fax 250-386-2624.

may be higher priority calls but we do believe that we can’t ask you to be our partner in crime and then not have the time to attend to your home when trouble occurs. Community policing does not mean everything is dealt with locally though. There are several support and specialized services that are integrated with other municipal departments and the RCMP, such as dispatch, the emergency response team and detective units. These are effective and valuable so I’m proud to say Saanich is now a member of all integrated units. All of this comes at a price. It would indeed be cheaper to eliminate our “no call too small” policy. And like some of our neighbours, we could reduce costs from withdrawing from some of the integrated police units. Yet we believe that public safety is a priority and that we can keep Saanich safe by providing the best of both worlds: excellent quality community policing backed up by integrated regional units for specialized and support services. So what do you think? Are you willing to pay for the cost of this community policing model? Would you be willing to give up our “no call too small” policy? Do you support paying more to join integrated units within the region? We’d welcome your feedback. Comment on the Saanich News website or on Twitter @frank_leonard with the hashtag #mayorsview.

LETTERS
Self-righteous NDP lost election on their own Re: Electors in B.C. fooled by Liberals (Letters, May 17) I suggest that it is the lack of comprehension of the real reason for the NDP failure and non mea culpa attitudes of the likes of Mr. Perkins that may well keep the NDP out of office for some considerable time. The election was lost by the NDP, rather than won by the Liberals. Simply put, the majority
of the electorate had three main issues the NDP inadequately addressed. The first, second and third were concern about the economy. With the current world financial uncertainty, it is natural that thoughtful voters would be uneasy with a party which has traditionally focused on redistribution of wealth, rather than creation of wealth. The
NDP put forward an election platform which called for spending on a plethora of social programs before knowing if they were affordable or how they could be financed, other than simply by increasing taxes to corporations and the rich. I would also suggest that the NDP’s self-righteous view, that all of B.C. is against oil pipelines and more tankers in the straits of
Juan de Fuca, is off the mark and cost them crucial votes. It would be wonderful to have a government that would simultaneously champion economic growth and have rewards shared more equitably; one that increased spending on social programs and education, commensurate with financial resources, and reviewed key environmental issues with the
objective rationale of risk versus economic benefit, rather than driven by political dogma. Alas, I fear that neither of the two main parties in B.C. have the will or the ability to deliver what may be viewed as a utopian wish. Oh, for a middle of the road party for middle of the road voters. Hope springs eternal. James McMillan Victoria
Readers respond: Election time columnist, sewage plant, native place names, parking beef Better background check was needed Re: Poor choice for B.C. pre-election piece (Letters, May 17) I found John Palmer’s letter interesting. I, too, thought that the preelection article by Gwyn Morgan (Think hard about B.C.’s future before voting May 14; Opinion, May 10) sounded like a Liberal advertisement. Now we learn more about the elusive Mr. Morgan. He is on the board of the Fraser Institute, but more importantly he recently retired as board chairman of SNC Lavelin, which is presently involved in court proceedings. Black Press rightfully highlighted Mr. Palmer’s letter, which told us of this behaviour, but it would have been better if Black Press had done proper background checks on Mr. Morgan prior to the election, not after. Ginny Gareau Victoria
No sewage plant in my backyard Re: Don’t pass sewage buck (Our View, May 15) I have a suggestion for
anyone who would suggest that locating a biosolids treatment facility on Viewfield Road is “probably the best of a hard situation:” Let’s build this facility right next to your house, and less than two blocks from where your children go to school. Esquimalt Mayor Barb Desjardins’ suggestion of a site on Burnside Road farmland may not be an ideal option. But let’s be clear about two things: Locating this facility on Viewfield Road is completely inappropriate, and it is totally unacceptable to those who live, work and attend school in the communities surrounding this site. Jeff Lukovich Esquimalt
Native place names need verification Re: First Nations to reclaim name of Mount Doug (News, May 17) I am in favour of restoring aboriginal placenames. Ethnographer Wilson Duff also had an interest in seeing them preserved, and devoted much of his career to ensuring these traditional designations not be lost.
Parking lot mishap produces a beef A beef to the person who scraped the back bumper of our black truck between 12:15 and 1:15 p.m. in the Sidney Thrifty Foods parking lot on May 20. The least you could have done was leave a note with your phone number or say you were sorry. Elizabeth Favelle Victoria
Letters Edward Hill/News staff
Tsawout First Nation chief Eric Pelkey, shown here atop Mount Douglas, hopes to see the rocky outcropping renamed Pkols, its traditional First Nations name. One reader agrees with the idea of restoring aboriginal names to local landmarks. He regarded his native informants as friends, and believed that documenting pre-colonial place names could help B.C.’s First Nations establish aboriginal title. In the 1960s, Duff consulted three Songhees elders who volunteered information about a site called Pkaals or Pkols. Two of them told Duff it was “the name of Mount Tolmie,” while the third
said it referred to a “beach outside Cadboro Bay.” I respect the efforts to restore the name Pkols, but would like to know to which place does it refer: Mount Douglas, Mount Tolmie, a beach near Cadboro Bay, all three? I question the likelihood that Gov. James Douglas and his clerks embarked on a day’s ride through the bush and up a mountain (which had no road to
its peak in 1852) to sign a treaty, when he could have the signatories visit him at Fort Victoria, as others had done, and where they frequently came to trade. I understand this contradicts oral history, but no other sources suggest that Douglas (or any colonial officer) would have been so accommodating. K. Dussault Saanich

Island Montessori school in Saanich is hosting its second Island Children’s Festival on Saturday, once again headlined by children’s music star Fred Penner. Last year, 1,000 kids and parents had a day of entertainment and fun and helped raise money for the school. Tyl Van Toorn, a board member of the school, said Island Montessori accepts all special needs students, especially from low-income families, despite the budget pressures. “There is an amazing group of teachers and therapists who donate their time to the school,” he said. “The teachers accept the hardest cases.” With Penner, singer and songwriter Shé will perform, along with Fire and Ice dance troupe. Van Toorn said they also plan to launch a small rocket. The Island Children’s Festival is, May 25, noon to 5 p.m. at Island Montessori, 5575 West Saanich Rd.

More than 1,500 athletes ran in the Oak Bay half marathon last year. This year’s race is this Sunday, starting on Oak Bay Avenue.
OFF
More than 1,000 people have registered to hit the streets in the Oak Bay halfmarathon May 26, with 30 runners committed to taking on a new 10-kilometre race. For the first time a 10.73-km race has been added to the morning’s 5-km, relay and kids’ 2-km challenge and 400-metre fun run festivities The event, sponsored by 107.3 Kool FM, will have 10.73 km runners pass a timing mat at the 10-km mark to allow participants to record their time for a standard distance. “It’ll give a bunch of people a new challenge,” said Dave Milne, race director and owner of Peninsula Runners. Racers true to the half-marathon distance won’t have to worry their course will be marginally lengthened come race day. “It’s the one everybody likes, so we don’t fiddle with it,” said Milne. The course will once again weave through south Oak Bay and culminate in a grind up Newport Avenue before the big finish in Oak Bay Village. Catch the first finishers crossing the line just after 9 a.m. Last year, organizers focused on recouping some of the funds lost in the 2011 event to ensure the races could continue. Although charity wasn’t the focus, they were able to donate $2,000 to breast cancer research and $1,000 to the Help Fill a Dream Foundation. With the books now balanced, proceeds from this year’s event are earmarked for C-FAX Santas Anonymous. Then there’s nothing left to do, but to lace up their sneakers. For the newbies, Milne offers a sole piece of advice: pace yourself. Volunteers are needed on the route as road marshals. To get involved, to register or to print a pledge form, visit oakbayhalf.com.

Mclaren shines a light on energy efficiency Grant program offers bright incentive to try efficient, attractive LED lighting
O
ne of Victoria’s premier lighting showrooms has joined with BC Hydro and the lighting manufacturer Standard Products to provide residents a chance to try out the latest lighting technology at a great price. While similar programs have in the past happened at “big box” retailers, Victoria’s Mclaren Lighting is one of three lighting showrooms in the province to be selected to take part in the pilot project. The state-of-the-art bulbs come with a $5 instant rebate, while the ceiling-mount LEDs offer a $13 instant rebate. The store was able to bring in a large inventory to make the program work, and offer customers a good opportunity to try the product. “They lowered their price and we lowered our price – we wanted to make this price very, very attractive and provide a better quality bulb,” explains McLaren’s general manager Dave Finnigan. “They knew we could promote it properly and we could make it happen,” says Finnigan, pointing out that the initiative is a great opportunity to show customers how much LED lighting has evolved in a very short time. While early years brought a number of dramatic technological changes, today LED lights are enjoying more subtle refinements to make them more user-friendly. “If you buy a bulb today, you’ll keep it for many years and be very happy with it; if you bought it a year ago, you’re now going to be looking at the newer technology,” Finnigan says. While people were concerned initially about the blue tone of the light, for example, the new bulbs offer the same warm tone as a traditional lightbulb, he says. Compared to a traditional lightbulb, however, where 80 per cent of the energy is wasted in heat production versus the production of light, LEDs distribute 80 per cent of
their energy to lighting and just 20 per cent to heat. That offers far greater efficiency – and energy savings. “People want all the benefits of LED but they don’t want to know it’s LED – now they can have both,” Finnigan says. At the showroom, customers can ask the questions and feel confident knowing that the Mclaren team has done the research on the products and technology, and has the knowledge and experience to back it. “When you buy from us, we have done the homework.” And that’s important with a Dave Finnigan technology that has evolved so rapidly. “Never before in the lighting industry has technology changed so quickly,” Finnigan says. The question of quality is key. BC Hydro notes that there’s a huge range in bulb quality and people who may have bought a lesser quality bulb in the past may not have been pleased with the lighting or longevity. These bulbs, however, come with a five-year warranty and are EnergyStar rated – two key points for homeowners looking to find an attractive and efficient lighting solution.
“EnergyStar-qualified LED bulbs use 75 per cent less energy that standard incandescents.” –

Mclaren Lighting is a family-owned and operated showroom celebrating more than 50 years in business, with showrooms in both Victoria and Nanaimo. With the Island’s largest in-stock inventory, the showroom features more than 5,000 items on display. As members of Western Canada’s largest buying group, Mclaren is also able to provide excellent pricing. According to BC Hydro PowerSmart, “LED (LightEmitting Diode) lighting is an emerging technology that holds great promise to revolutionize home lighting over the next decade.” In choosing an LED bulb, look for those with the EnergyStar label, “awarded to select LED products that meet strict efficiency, quality and lifetime criteria,” PowerSmart notes. Energy Star-qualified LED lights use 75-per-cent-less energy than standard incandescents. They last a minimum of 25,000 hours, or 25 years based on average household use, and contain no mercury.

Extent of damage to warship still unknown: CFB Esquimalt Daniel Palmer News staff
The extent of the damage to a Canadian Navy warship at CFB Esquimalt won’t be known for months, but officials are beginning tests on the fishing vessel responsible for the collision. On April 23, the fishing trawler American Dynasty slammed into HMCS Winnipeg at “C’ Jetty at CFB Esquimalt, damaging both ships and the jetty where the Winnipeg was docked. Early reports indicated the Dynasty’s throttle may have become stuck as it approached the drydock, sending its bow directly into the port side of the frigate, said Raymond Mathew, regional manager for Transportation Safety Board Pacific
marine investigations. While the navy is conducting its own investigation into the collision, TSB officials are working to replicate the reported glitch. “There are further tests that will be carried out on the engines of the fishing vessel,” Mathew said. “Investigators have completed the dry-docking procedure (on the Dynasty) and will now conduct tests to attempt to replicate the engine failure.” The Winnipeg was set to begin sea trials at the end of 2013 after a multi-million-dollar overhaul, but was not expected for fleet operations until at least 2014, said Lt.-Cmdr. Desmond James, navy public affairs officer. “Winnipeg was in extended
readiness when all this happened,” he said. “There is no immediate impact to (coastal defence) operations … but to give a timeline for the investigation, it’s impossible to do that right now.” The Winnipeg is one of 12 Canadian naval frigates that has undergone or are scheduled to undergo technology retrofits as part of a program projected to cost $3.1 billion (2007 estimate). dpalmer@vicnews.com

Gzowski’s legacy continues Long-running literacy fundraiser takes Belfry stage Natalie North News staff
If you asked Mike Stevens where the heart of the country resides, he’d say, the North – where the struggles of some of our most vulnerable aren’t so different from those closer to the 49th parallel. Canadian harmonica virtuoso, Stevens, has taken time away from his own charity, ArtsCan Circle – a group of musicians and artists who travel to remote Canadian Indigenous communities to link creative artists with youth at risk – to come to Victoria for Literacy Victoria’s largest annual fundraiser, the Peter Gzowski Invitational, May 28 at the Belfry. Working with aboriginal youth in remote communities and funding accessible literacy programs for adults share the common bond of empowering the
often most disenfranchised and vulnerable members of society. And Gzowski, Stevens said, is not only the founder of the PGI golf tournament and subsequent fundraisers in support of literacy, but the late CBC broadcaster remains a true legend in the North. “If you go into an arctic community and talk about Gzowski, people really know him,” Stevens said. “He knew that the heart and the soul of the country was out there. He was championing literacy as a way to give these people a voice. … These communities really have something to say to the rest of Canada.” Stevens has recorded nine studio albums and spent the better part of the last 30 years travelling the world with his harmonica. He now splits his time between touring and ArtsCan, which he founded shortly after meeting youth who were solvent sniffing in Goose Bay, Labrador in 1999. Stevens broke into bluegrass circles by criss-crossing the
country, passing the hat, at a time when he was considered a musical outcast for his instrument choice. “Early on bluegrass didn’t want harmonica. Some people are so strict about what they’ll accept into the fold and call ‘real bluegrass,’” he said. “There was mandolin and guitar and acoustic bass, sometimes dobro, but there wasn’t harmonica. I’d face people who turned their backs to me while I played, or retune their instruments, so I couldn’t play with them.” He persevered through the rejection for years before eventually finding acceptance and greatness in the genre. “Every time it happened, I just got more pissed off and I wanted it to work even more.” Now, he has taken the stage at the Grand Ole Opry more than 300 times. Despite a prolific career, the 55-year-old from Brights Grove, Ont. will play Victoria for the first time ever this month. His set list is undetermined, as always, as Stevens doesn’t know from one

Russell deCarle of Juno award-winning country roots group Prairie Oyster is also on the bill for the evening and they will be performing together. “I’m doing something that I really love and believe in and it’s
absolutely honest for me to do it. There are no smoke and mirrors, no schtick involved. Stevens’ no-holds-barred, impassioned performances have resulted in seven hernias – and zero softening of his style. PLEASE SEE: Literacy, Page A11

Literacy Victoria welcomes Stevens along with fellow bluegrass, folk and roots performers for their biggest fundraising event of the year. Funds support a variety of workshops and equipment used to teach oft-stigmatized adult learners a range of literacy skills including communications and technology training. “Some people are still quite embarrassed about (seeking literacy training), but a lot of people are saying: ‘OK, enough of this hiding it; time
to get at it,’” said Ruth Derrick, executive director of Literacy Victoria. “It’s great, because the confidence that they instantly receive from achieving the things they thought they’d never achieve – it’s incredible.” Clients often face chronic health or family issues that make it hard for them to complete their education, or are further weighed down by a sense of worthlessness, Derrick said. Her message: “Everyone can learn at any point in their life.” See Stevens, deCarle, Steve Briggs and Denis Keldie, as
well as humourist Arthur Black and host Shelagh Rogers, this Tuesday, May 28 at 6 p.m. at the Belfry for PGI Plays the Belfry (1291 Gladstone Ave.) Tickets are $45 for the show, and include pre-show appetizers, or $100 for the VIP package, which comes with a post-show party with the artists and a $50 tax receipt. Tickets are on sale at the Belfry box office: 250-385-6815 or online at belfry.bc.ca. Since its inception in 1986, the PGI events have raised more than $12.5 million for literacy. nnorth@saanichnews.com

Christine Willes in Kaleidoscope Theatre's production of War of the Eagles, talks to Eagle, played here by Valerie Sing Turner.
Good things come to those who wait.
Kaleidoscope Theatre brings history to life at Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Sites for its adaptation of War of the Eagles, starting tomorrow (May 25). Adapted from Eric Walter’s book War of the Eagles, the play tells the story of two youth, Jed and Tadashi, living on a military base near Prince Rupert during the Second World War. As Japanese internment becomes policy, the two boys are forced to confront the racism and confusion of war. “With this story, it’s set in the environment that it reflects,” said artistic director Roderick Glanville. “Once I approached Fort Rodd and said ‘this is our idea,’ it was a perfect marriage, because they’re looking to expand into more family and youth to get access to the park.” Two actors play the titular eagle, which is shot by soldiers and then nursed to health by the boys. Valerie Sing Turner, plays both the eagle and Naomi Blackburn, Jed’s mother, a First Nations woman married to a white Canadian fighter pilot. Turner, although not First Nations herself, said she is loving the chance to play such a strong character. “So often we see First Nations in kind of victim’s or exploited roles out there,” Turner said. “So I thought it was really great to put forward a different kind of role model.” The play is appropriate for all ages. It runs Saturday and Sunday at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m See rmts. bc.ca for ticket info, or purchase at the gate.

New to the event this year is the addition of the Angels Chopper Bike Club, founded by Mike and Annabelle Harrington with the idea of giving children and youth from five to 15 the opportunity to design and build their own bicycles under supervision. Operating for seven years, under the theme “changing lives one bike at a time,” the group also has a dance group component that will be performing during the car show on Saturday and Sunday. RuKus will also play from 12 to 3 p.m., with additional performances by a local dance troupe representing Dansko Studios. Sunday is family day, with sponsorship from Island Savings Credit Union, featuring facepainting and the BC Hazmat Tom Thumb safety pedal cars which young visitors can guide around a pint-sized course. Throughout the weekend, kids will also receive a special “build-yourown” race car model kit to take home.

Tickets to the dance are $20 per person, while car show admission is by donation. All proceeds from the event will benefit Children’s Health Foundation’s Bear Essentials Program, which provides funding for families to cover unexpected or extraordinary expenses related to their child’s health and special needs. “This is such a worthwhile cause – we have so many families benefitting from this,” Przybysz says, encouraging everyone to come out, join the fun and “bring a kid to a car show.”

Rotary celebrates 100 years Greater Victoria is celebrating a century of “Service above Self.” As Rotarians throughout B.C. mark 100 years of Rotary in the province, the Rotary Club of Victoria also celebrates this significant milestone. The Victoria club was established Nov. 14, 1913 as the 90th club in the world. Forty-one charter members joined Frank Higgins as the first president for the inaugural banquet at the Empress hotel. Over the years, club presidents included Victoria-area mayors and several MLAs and cabinet ministers. Hockey legend Lester Patrick was president in 1921-22. Over the decades, the Victoria club has contributed to numerous community services and amenities. In 1947 it raised $15,000 to construct the tourism publicity bureau that is now Tourism Victoria. The Island Highway, Crystal Gardens, Willows Fair Ground, United Way Victoria, YMCA, Royal Roads University and the Salvation Army are a few of the institutions that have been supported by the Victoria Rotary Club. In the past decade alone the club has provided more than $1 million to community groups and organizations touching every demographic, including Read Victoria, Mustard Seed Food Bank, Rainbow Kitchen, the CNIB, Victoria Police Victim’s Services, Esquimalt Neighbourhood House, Our Place, Victoria AIDS resource centre, Sooke Family Resource Centre, and the Mount St. Mary Foundation. The club has supported Rotary International’s efforts to eradicate polio, and through Operation Eyesight to help people in developing countries, as well as helping communities in rural Kenya with literacy, education, training and clean water. For more than three decades Victoria was the only Rotary Club in the region, established just 10 years after businessman Paul Harris founded the organization in Chicago. There are now 11 Rotary Clubs from Sidney to Sooke with 600 members in total. Rotarians are men and women from nearly every walk of life, who meet weekly for fellowship and to work on projects and community fundraising activities. At the Rotary Club of WestShore, for example, initiatives range from providing volunteers to read with First Nations children in Metchosin to helping found a successful girls’ school in Malawi, Africa. Other projects include water wells and children’s hygiene boxes in Africa and a play park for young
