The first step in a total ban of any type of pipeline across Wet’suwet’en territory took place March 20, when a feast was hosted by the Tsayu (Beaver) clan, one of five Wet’suwet’en clans. Namoks (John Ridsdale) is the head chief of the Tsayu and he spoke at length about the feast and what it means to the crowd gathered at the Rock the North benefit event in Hazelton May 19. “We didn’t come to this decision lightly,” Namoks said to the assembled crowd. “These pipeline projects threaten everything we as Wet’suwet’en are bound to stand for.” Namoks went on to explain the intricacies and importance of the feast held on March 20. “Now that the Tsayu have stepped forward and held a pipeline banning feast, the other four clans must follow suit,” he said. It is the hope of the Wet’suwet’en that companies like Enbridge, who are proposing a bitumen transportation pipeline to traverse Wet’suwet’en territory from east to west, finally get the message. “Everything we’ve tried so far has not reached their ears,” Namoks said. The Wet’suwet’en have employed several methods to be heard by Enbridge especially.
see page A-28
They have been granted the ability to speak on proxy votes, nominated by organizations that own shares in Enbridge stock, and have, for the past few years let their position be known to the Enbridge executive council. “Unless you own at least one share you have no right to speak at their AGM,” Namoks said. “This is my fourth time speaking at one of those meetings and the security Enbridge had there was much more than we’ve seen before.” Namoks also spoke at Enbridge’s last AGM nearly a year previous at the company’s Toronto headquarters. “We had between four and five thousand people there and blocked off Bay Street during that meeting,” he said, which was part of the two-week Freedom Train that travelled from the westcoast to the meeting. Namoks and the rest of the Wet’suwet’en have made this latest decision based on the government of Canada’s activity in recent years. “They change the environmental standards so drastically that we had to ban all pipelines,” Namoks said. “The omnibus bills that were pushed through would potentially allow all pipelines through if one was approved. “Enbridge was the initial focus, but there’s so many proposals we felt we had to make where we stand absolutely clear.”

Downtown merchants make changes

Smithers/Interior News
Smithers downtown merchants have taken it upon themselves to improve the local business climate. Last week, the group met with Mayor and councillors, Tourism Smithers, the Bulkley Valley Economic Development Association and Smithers District Chamber of Commerce to discuss strategies for bringing more traffic into the downtown core. One area where the Downtown Merchants Association has made some changes is to their member’s business hours. Starting June 7, businesses will remain open until 8 p.m. on Friday nights and most will maintain regular hours of at least 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. during the rest of the week.

Smithers and filming a video tour of the area. DMA coordinator Kelly Ehalt said they also would like to develop a marketing plan to target people living between Prince George and Prince Rupert. “We believe there are many people that come to Smithers not
just to enjoy the great outdoor activities but also come specifically for the unique boutique shopping Smithers has and takes pride in,” Ehalt said. The organization represents almost 50 Smithers businesses, located between King and Queen streets and from Alfred Ave. to
Highway 16. Retail stores and service providers make up the group’s membership. Also coming up for the DMA is the Main St. Festival June 15. Activities will include entertainment, food, pony rides and a petting zoo and a sidewalk sale.

Cullen: Social license a must Smithers/Interior News
Skeena-Bulkley Valley MP Nathan Cullen had much to say during his biweekly teleconference with media, including Enbridge and pipelines in general and the need for social licenses. Over the last several months, Cullen has travelled northern B.C. as part of the Renewal Northwest tour, listening to what constituents had to say on a variety of topics. A common topic at the various town halls was the need for resource companies to obtain social license from the communities they work in, Cullen said. “What kind of values do we want companies to approach us with and how to appeal [to communities],” Cullen said was a hot topic throughout the northwest of the province. Obtaining a social license, Cullen said, would provide certainty for investors and job creators, as well as defend the interests of the communities. Cullen said he was happy to hear B.C. Premier Christy Clark affirm Enbridge has yet to meet the five conditions the Liberal government established for

also came up for discussion and Cullen said even Conservative M.P.s were having a hard time towing the party line. “It hurts them [MP’s] so badly with their base in the west that they don’t want to go home,” Cullen said. “They don’t want to be around the people that put them into office to be accountable. “They’re really, really reeling from this.” Reform of the senate is no longer an option, Cullen said. He noted the Conservatives wanted to reform the senate seven years ago, but that has not happened yet. Cullen was asked if he would consider taking over the provincial NDP should Adrain Dix step down. In response, Cullen said he contemplated the move a few years ago, but for the moment the possibility was not on his radar.
“If Mr. Harper’s plan is to ram this [Northern Gateway]down our throats he’s in for a rude awakening.” Nathan Cullen Skeena-Bulkley Valley MP
Enbridge before their proposed Northern Gateway pipeline received the go ahead. Industry, Cullen said, has also shown an interest in his Renewal Northwest tour. “They are desperate to understand how to work with us and whether or not their project fits before they go and spend a lot of money trying to develop it if it fundamentally doesn’t fit the value-set of the region,” Cullen said. “It [Renewal Northwest] takes us away from this black and white brutal idea that all things are good or all things are bad, that’s not the real world.

“In my world we need jobs and we need jobs that fit who we are.” The comment, Cullen said, puts the federal Conservative government in a tight spot because Prime Minister Stephen Harper has promised tar sands oil would make its way to China. “They [federal Conservative government] were hoping for an NDP government [in B.C.] to blame for stopping the project,” he said. “If Mr. Harper’s plan is to ram this down our throats he’s in for a rude awakening.” The current problems in the senate

Huckleberry Mine rescue team preparing
By Ryan Jensen Smithers/Interior News
The Huckleberry Mine rescue team is training hard to ensure they remain one of the top teams in B.C. at the upcoming Provincial Mine Rescue and First Aid Competition. While first place has eluded the team, they have come very close to reaching the top spot in the last two years. Lee O’Hara, a Huckleberry Mine rescue team member for the last six years, is captain this time around. Besides himself, there are two other members with experience, he said, so maintaining focus and remembering what was learned during training will be key. The event is broken up into a zone final first, then the top two teams in each zone advance on to the provincial competition. It’s hosted annually by the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Natural Gas and is now in its 57th year. Teams compete in underground mine rescue, three-person first aid

and mine rescue coach Dwayne Allen said they just need to refine their
craft. “They need to sharpen their skills and develop
that flow where they don’t have to stop the task at hand, it’s just second nature,” Allen said. First aid will be a major focus and is typically the deciding factor in the event, O’Hara said. “First aid is a big point getter,” he said. “We need to be thorough and not over or under treat. “The tendency is to do too much when you’re missing obvious points in another direction.” At the end of the day, win or lose, the competition is about education, O’Hara said. “It should be a learning experience first,” he said. The Provincial Mine Rescue and First Aid Competition zone final is June 6 and provincials are June 8. Both take place in Revelstoke. Allen has been lobbying for Smithers to host the 2014 event. This will be announced on June 8.

A look back
Government slow and forgetful
W
e can no longer sit back without commenting on the urgent needs of the local telephone and telegraph office operated by the Dominion Government. Local business people and residents have a right to expect a little better service than what they are getting at present, and by rights should have a lot better service in return for the large number of new telephone subscribers obtained in the past few years. We’ve been silent this long time because the local manager has been expecting some action in regard to his requests for relief to the present setup, totally inadequate to handle the large volume of business now going through the antiquated equipment isntalled here. We don’t pretend to know why the head office of the Dominion Telephone and Telegraph Co. at Vancouver has not done something long before this, certainly they are acquainted with the facts of the case. The first and most urgent need is for a new modern telephone office suitable to handle the business and house some modern equipment, which it is understood is now on hand. The present building is entirely inadequate to provde the space needed for expansion of the business and for office facilities. Let’s have some action. While we’re at it we might as well take a rap at the provincial government, as far as we’re concerned in this part of the Skeena riding we might as well be in Pakistan for all the attention we get. Another year is rapidly drawing to a close and one has to rack their brain to find any projects worthy of note hereabouts. It isn’t for lack of watning or need, for the community through one organization or another has begged for highway improvements for a long time without results. The government apparently thinks it is making a big showing by voting sums of money each year for highway projects which are never started, or if started are allowed to drag on like the project to provide proper approaches to the new Bulkley Bridge. The awakeneing will be nonetheless sudden and rude than has been seen already in southern parts of the province when elections roll around. The Interior News, July 1948
Polarized politics a costly system O
ne benefit of the surprising fourth term for the B.C. Liberal Party is that the provincial government won’t be subjected to another big, expensive ideological remake. Taxpayers are spared a bill of millions in severance pay for deputy ministers and other senior staff who would be purged in large numbers in the leftright lurch that has defined B.C. politics for a generation. BC Ferries will continue as an armslength operation, with ferry commissioner Gord Macatee in charge of service levels as well as fare caps. The service rationalization that the government set out in the past year will continue.
The NDP platform vowed to “position BC Ferries as an integral part of B.C.’s transportation infrastructure.” Freely translated, that means “suck BC Ferries back into government,” as one of their strident supporters likes to say. That would conceal the growth of the subsidy and facilitate the kind of political and union interference that resulted in the current structure. There will be no $10 million rehash of the BC Rail sale and subsequent seven-year trial, to enrich elite lawyers once again. The NDP promised an inquiry for strictly political reasons, to drag their opponents through the scandal one more time. It was not a prelude to “nationalizing”

power contracts has also been avoided. The B.C. Liberals are caught by a sudden shift in power markets caused by cheap, abundant natural gas, but the billions in commitments to independent power producers isn’t the fiasco critics have described. If all those privately developed run-of-river hydro projects were owned and operated by BC Hydro, the Crown corporation would have to staff them and maintain them all for the next 40 years. There are differing views about the future demand for electricity in B.C., but it can only rise with industry and population growth. A decade of federal and provincial work to end duplication of environmental
assessment won’t be undone. NDP leader Adrian Dix’s promise for “made in B.C.” reviews was a strategy to choke resource projects to death under endless procedure, which may yet be the fate of the Jumbo resort. There will be many arguments about the failure of the NDP to win against an unpopular B.C. Liberal government still weighed down by the harmonized sales tax and other heavy baggage. This election could be the beginning of the end for the old leftright model for B.C. politics.

Comment gave wrong impression Editor: (re: Mayor’s comments not so business friendly, Interior News, May 15, 2013) Although I can see in hindsight that my March 28 comment on Twitter gives the impression I was taking a shot at the local paper, that wasn’t my intent. It was meant as a lighthearted reflection on the irony of sharing an article that most of my Twitter followers -- many of whom live out of town -wouldn’t be able to read because of the paywall. I’m a big supporter of local newspapers, including ours, and I’m sympathetic to the challenges they face in adapting to the online media age. The paywall is an understandable response to this

Advertising should be local Editor: (re: Mayor’s comments not so business friendly, Interior News, May 15, 2013) In his editorial “Mayor’s Comments not so business friendly” from May 15, 2013, the editor of The Interior News calls into question whether the Mayor of Smithers, Taylor Bachrach, truly supports local businesses.

BROOKE UTZ
First, let’s ignore that the “recent Twitter posting” was actually 6 weeks old and the editor inflated the Mayor’s twitter followers by over 400 per cent. Rather, let’s looks at the issue of supporting local businesses. In his editorial, the editor asked, “Are there other products the mayor tells residents they should be buying elsewhere than in Smithers?” This is a good question, one that should be asked directly of his employer, The Interior News. Every week the paper includes flyers from a variety of out of town businesses, including but not limited to, Staples, Future Shop, and
Rona. None of these stores are located within the Bulkley Valley and the majority of the products sold by these stores are available within the Bulkley Valley. The Interior News also promotes the out of town stores with ads, such as the ad on page A18 of this week’s paper. By including and promoting the flyers and out of town stores, The Interior News is directly promoting residents to shop elsewhere. If the editor is going to openly call into question peoples support of local businesses, maybe it is time he stepped up and started to do the same to his employer.

TWEET from A7 He used an emoticon with an apology that people on social media would not get to see it. You clearly missed his point to compliment your article and stretched it to be negative somehow! Perhaps you could look at ways to make your web site more easily shared with social media. It was also surprising to hear someone’s two cents criticizing your paywall. I recognize your business model and I am quite certain the mayor has a subscription to both your online and print editions. As far as the CBC comment, if you asked him for a lead on someone to interview I am sure he would try and help you too, and to suggest the CBC as not local is unCanadian. One last point about all this antibusiness sentiment: from my perspective managing a local tech shop, business has been robust and and healthy here in Smithers. The negativity on your front page (paid for by local business advertising) may turn out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy for our
economy. Then who will be to blame? Mark Edwards Smithers

On Ebenezer Flats the problem was the same until the river and back channels became too high to cross. I actually phoned the conservation officer at the time, and was told, that indeed, it is illegal, and the persons responsible could be subject to fines. I was advised, to call the conservation officers when the deed is in progress, so they could come here immediately, and try to speak to the perpetrators. I was also instructed to observe, record, and report, and specifically, try to obtain the licence
plate numbers, and take a photo if possible. The other option was to speak to the individuals. I actually did this, and after I spoke to them, expressing my concerns, they agreed about the risks and stated that they would no longer take part in such an exercise. All involved were quite accommodating. Here, there is another issue as well. Beaver Island, the access point to the back channel, is not only private property, but it is a refuge for the pregnant cow moose. The island, generally inaccessible during the flooding season of the Bulkley River, offers them a safe haven from such insults as All Terrain Vehicles. Their calves are born at the end of May, so they tend to hang out there before and after their delivery. When the river goes down they move on. I think people care, and are aware of the ecosystems that we share, in the Bulkley Valley, but I don’t think they realize how fragile they are, and how quickly they can be destroyed by seemingly harmless recreation.

Your Valley Dairies Evelyn Mountain View Farm In August 1956, with 8 children, Dirk & Minke Adema moved 12 miles west of Smithers to a small plot of land. For the kids it was quite the adventure as things were pretty primitive; there was no indoor plumbing, no running water and no electricity. The family had to wait for several months before electricity was installed.
Jess in the Milking Parlour
The first cows arrived at the farm and no one was quite ready for them. The cows were a royal nuisance without fences
and were continuously wandering away. It became the older children’s responsibility of finding the cows and bringing them home for every milking. Until 1968 there were 12 cows being milked by hand, and the land was slowly being cleared by Dirk and his children. While trying to build up the farm, Dirk worked full time at the Smithers’ planer. This allowed him to care for his family financially as well as save funds to purchase more land. In 1969 a modern dairy and barn was built to house 44 cows and a bulk cooling tank was installed to follow the requirements for all dairies. This was the same year that Dairyland bought out Lake Else Dairy near Kitimat, and the change in prices made it possible for Dirk to quit work at the Smithers planer and rely on full time farming. In 1974 a free stall barn and double four herring bone parlour were built and the number of cows increased. Then in 2007 the barn and parlour
A Project of your Bulkley Valley Dairy Association and the Interior News were remodeled to accommodate the continually growing herd. Before Dirk passed away in late 2007, he was able to see the latest upgrades on the farm and see the growth of the farm since 1956. Hard work and determination were the two main ingredients to start, which is now known, as Evelyn Mountain View Farm. Dirk and Minke’s work ethics and faith continue to inspire the next generations.
Madyson, Erica, Aaron, Dori the cow, Jess, Mikayla and Clifff Adema(3rd generation farmers)
Henry, Anne, Marian and Dick Adema (2nd generation farmers)
In 1979 it came time for the second generation to run the farm, and so Dirk & Minke passed it on to two of their sons and wives;

Dirk & Marian, and Henry & Anne. The farm is now in transition again as the third generation prepares to make it theirs. Cousins and spouses; Aaron & Erica, Clifff & Mikayla, and Jess have been well trained and eager to continue and improve the dairy herd that was started almost 6 decades ago.
As we celebrate 100 years of mithers being a community, our wish is that the Dairy industry will carry on and that someday, we again, will have a milk plant in the Bulkley Valley. We would love to keep our milk local and fresh.

Public Notice 2012 Annual Report
Telkwa fire chief off to Elkford By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News
Corey J. Kortmeyer couldn’t resist the opportunity to chase his dream and so this Friday, May 31, marks his last day as chief of the Telkwa Volunteer Fire Department. Kortmeyer is headed to Elkford, B.C. where he assumes the position of fulltime Deputy Fire Chief. “My dream is to be a full-time fire chief,” Kortmeyer said. “This is the first step.” Kortmeyer first slipped into firefighter boots in Telkwa in 2006, then in 2008 he took over as fire chief. Looking back, Kortmeyer points to additional training he’s been able to secure for the TVFD as one of his most important accomplishments, together with being able to maintain a core group of volunteers. “I’ve rubbed shoulders with some great people,” Kortmeyer said referring to the volunteer firefighters. In those years of service, Kortmeyer
Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 99(3) of the Community Charter that Council will consider the 2012 Annual Report at its June 11, 2013 Regular Meeting of Council to be held at 7:30 pm in Council Chambers at 1027 Aldous Street. The Annual Report will be available for public review at the Town Hall and on the Town’s website (www.smithers.ca) beginning Monday, May 27, 2013 at noon. Written submissions regarding the Annual Report will be accepted until 4:00 pm, June 10, 2013 for inclusion on the agenda and members of the public are welcome to attend the Regular Meeting on June 11, 2013. Any submissions should be addressed to: Susan Bassett Director of Corporate Services Town of Smithers 1027 Aldous Street, Smithers BC V0J 2N0 Phone: (250) 847-1600
Smithers Lions Club Club 222 Raffle 2013 After close to seven years of service, five as chief, Corey Kortmeyer is leaving the Telkwa Volunteer Fire Department to take a position as Deputy Fire Chief in Elkford, B.C. Percy N. Hébert photo
points to one incident as the best and toughest event of his time in Telkwa. He recalls, still with some emotion in his voice, a close call a few summers ago when a two-year-old boy fell into Tyhee Lake. “He drowned and was resuscitated,” Kortmeyer said. “The highest point in my career and the lowest up until when we found out he was going to be okay.”
Although he’s excited about his new adventure, Kortmeyer said it is difficult to leave Telkwa and the fire hall. “The volunteers in the fire hall are a close-knit group,” he said. “It’s going to be really hard to say good-bye to the valley and Telkwa especially.” Kortmeyer is succeeded by current deputy chief Randy Cunningham.

According to event coordinator, Melissa Sawatsky, the event is so unique because the expositions to transcend the walls of the museum. Shops, cafes, and municipal centres will have panels and certain artifacts on display, with to goal to encourage people to walk and explore Smithers. A big highlight of the crawl
is the heritage home tour. Between 1908 and 1940, major department stores such as Eatons and Aladdin sold kit homes, which were self assembly home kits. Most kit homes were built in Smithers around 1920, and would arrive in town via the railroad. Four kit homes have been identified by the Bulkley Valley Museum, and are included in the Culture Crawl. The firehall will also be showcasing the history of firefighting from 1914 up to now every Friday night in June from 6-9 p.m.

Canada’s most trusted stain since 1938.
Shortcuts to a lush lawn There are one million acres of lawn across the country. Many homeowners aspire to having a lush, green lawn as the showcase of their properties. The front lawn can make a statement and indicate to passersby the property owners’ personalities and design preferences. Lawn care takes some dedication and hard work, but there are certain ways to cut down on the amount of effort required to maintain a landscape. By employing a few different shortcuts, you can have a healthy, lush lawn without spending all of your free time cutting the grass or pruning the trees. * Stop weeds at the start. Weeding is one of the most timeconsuming parts of maintaining a lawn. Weeds can prolifer-
ate throughout the lawn if not addressed in a timely manner. Once weeds take root they can become a nuisance, so it’s best to treat weeds before they even have a chance to sprout. Apply a preemergent weed control product as soon as possible in the spring and then reapply it about three months later to ensure weeds are eradicated. That equates to much less tedious lawn maintenance during the season. * Plant a urine-resistant grass. Having a dog and maintaining a lush lawn has always been a particular conundrum for homeowners. Dog urine is high in nitrogen. While nitrogen, when applied in the correct ratio, can be a lawngrowth stimulant, in the large concentration that occurs in pet
urine, it causes the grass to dry up and burn, resulting in bare spots. Replanting with urine-resistant grasses can help cut down on the level of damage to the lawn from your own pet or pets that happen to make potty stops on your property. The grasses most resistant to urine tend to be perennial ryegrasses and fescues. * Wake up and water. Watering in the early mornings saves time and energy in the long run by fostering a tougher, more drought-resistant lawn. If you water early in the day, less water will be lost to evaporation. Limit watering to a few times per week, and less if you have had adequate rain. Avoid watering at night, which can expose the lawn to bacteria and attract insects.

Congratulates U18 boys share gold in Kamloops Ted Brand
By Ryan Jensen Smithers/Interior News
Despite facing strong competition, the Bulkley Valley U18 boys soccer team claimed top spot at a May long weekend tournament in Kamloops. The team actually shared first place with the European Football School, who they faced off against in the final after their last game finished in a tie and time and scheduling did not allow for overtime. The boys went undefeated during the round robin, beating teams from Campbell River, North Vancouver and Prince George before advancing to the final. Only one goal, in the game against Campbell River, was allowed by netminder Rylan Deacon-Rogers. Bill Price, U18 assistant coach and team manager said the team has been able to practice indoors at Smithers secondary school, which has allowed them to make up for their lack of on-field time. The players have also shown their ability to push themselves late in the game, Price said. “One reason for our success has been the energy and discipline of the players even when they are tired,” Price said. “Another reason has been the steady improvement in the basic skills of passing, chipping, shooting and running with the ball. “Winning was a pleasant surprise as the only other time this group of boys played in the tournament two years ago, they lost every game.” Deacon-Rogers said

their ability to keep the ball away from their opponents led to the strong finish. “Our team played our game and didn’t let the other teams have many chances,” he said. “The team’s defence was strong and we did well in not allowing the other team’s
players to have too much time with the ball.” The team is made up of players from Houston to Hazleton. Price mentioned especially strong performances from Evan Kenzle from Houston, Ryan Wright of Hazleton, Derek Forbes from Smithers
and Tim Harris from Quick. The leading scorer for the team was Eric Faion. The team is now preparing for the zone tournament on June 16. In preparation, the U18 Boys are playing in the Smithers mens’ soccer league.

Bodychecking eliminated from pee wee By Ryan Jensen Smithers/Interior News
A pee wee bodychecking ban approved by the Hockey Canada board on Saturday is fully supported by the Smithers Minor Hockey Association. The decision came at Hockey Canada’s AGM in Charlottetown and comes into effect for the 2014-2015 hockey season. Only Saskatchewan voted against the ban.
The vote reflected a concern too many injuries and concussions were being experienced by young hockey players, Hockey Canada spokesperson Andre Brin said. The issue has been on the SMHA radar for a few years, president Dave Turko said, and last year at the BC Hockey AGM a motion was narrowly defeated to ban bodychecking in pee wee. SMHA voted in favour of the motion.

“I personally don’t think kids will not be lacking by not having checking at that age,” Turko said. “I don’t think they will be delayed in their hockey development whatsoever. “I think they will probably end up being better hockey players. “It will be safer for the kids.” Additionally, Terrace Minor Hockey decided last year to take bodychecking out of all of their houseleague levels.
Some concern has been raised about the ban, in the belief that when kids are older and bigger and playing bantam hockey, they will not know how to bodycheck properly. Turko said he agrees this is an area that needs improvement. “I think we’ve kind of fallen apart a bit on teaching checking to kids,” Turko admitted. To deal with this scenario, the Hockey Canada board of

directors also decided to develop a body checking standard for coaching that will also be implemented during the 2014-2015 hockey season.

Painful experiences happen in our world every day and I’m quite certain that there is not a person reading this article that has not experienced at least some degree of pain their life and for many of you it has been severe. Sometimes people feel the pain someone faces is deserved because of foolish choices but many times it seems very unfair and hard to understand. Our middle son was diagnosed with cancer when he was only eight years old and died from that disease when he was thirteen. One day in Vancouver Children’s Hospital Jason said, “Dad, this isn’t fair.” I agreed with him and said, “There are many things in this world that are not fair.” There are people who do very bad things and seem to get away with it and then there are children and young adults who are struck
down in the prime of life with disease or life changing tragedies. Ever since Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden this world has been plagued by the effects of sin. Then I told Jason, “Someday God is going to make it all right and when He does, there will no longer be injustice.” The Bible tells us that God is good and that He works all things together for good to those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). The Bible also tells us that God is love, for God so loved the world that He gave his own son that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). In the midst of the unfairness and tragedy in this world I hold on to these truths together with my wife and children and grandchildren. God is good.

Relay for Life: Remembering Family By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News
Travis Giddings was only four when his father Alfred succumbed to cancer in 1993. He does have memories of visiting his father in the hospital and attending his funeral, but admits he was too young at the time to understand the implications of what happened to his father, or to have detailed memories. “I was a little too young to understand how drastic it was,” Travis said. “I’m sure it had more of an impact on my mother and my older sisters, Kristie and Roxane, who were seven and nine at the time.” Nonetheless, Travis, 24, has made it a point to take part in every Relay for Life in Smithers, since its inception in 2003. “For as long as I can remember I’ve participated in Relay for Life,” Travis said. “It’s the least I can do, just to show my support. “I know a lot of people who have been touched by cancer.” An avid sports enthusiast, Giddings does remember with fondness the passion his father had for fishing, something he promised to share with Travis when he turned seven. It would never be. Today, like his father, Travis is an avid fisherman, in addition to biking and hiking. Although he never had the opportunity to fish with his father, his father is with him every time he dips his line. “I use a lot of his fishing gear,” Travis said. Spending time fishing, Travis said, also offers him occasion to think about his father and to enjoy nature. Some of those memories, although not very detailed, are from when Alfred, who owned Al’s Custom Autobody, would come home from work, whether it was at lunchtime
or at the end of the day and spend time playing with Travis in the living room, a little roughhousing or with the toys already laid out on the floor. Participating in Relay for Life, Travis said, is another way for him to honour the memory of his father and his grandmother who died from cancer in 2010 as well as others in the community. “It’s comforting,” he said. Part of the comfort, Travis said, is meeting with family and friends, which makes the Relay for Life a social event, a time to catchup with family and friends, while at the same time paying his respects to other families that have been touched by cancer. In addition to the support and social aspect of Relay for
Life, Travis said the lighting of the luminaries is also a special moment of the Relay for Life. “It’s something I really look forward to and doing the Memory Lap,” he said. “To see the many other names out there, to pay your respects to them and their families.” As for the future, Travis said he sees himself participating in the Relay for Life for many years to come and hopes other Smithereens will take part. “It’s a really good experience,” Travis said. “It’s a good cause and it helps you realize how many people have been touched by cancer.” The Smithers Relay for Life runs June 8, from 1 p.m. - 1 a.m. For information contact smithersrelay@bc.cancer.ca.

Pedalling for fun, service and employment By Percy N. Hébert Smithers/Interior News
Thomas Buth uses his bike everyday, for pleasure as well as to deliver food baskets and collect and deliver recyclables.

Opening soon in the Hudson Bay Lodge, Smithers
For many, Bike to Work Week is an opportunity to dust off the old bike and get some exercise. For Thomas Buth, Bike to Work Week is just another week of fun, service to community and employment. “I ride my bike every day,” Buth said. Buth, 27, who also enjoys writing poetry and short stories, has been a member of The Grendel Group for more than five years. The Grendel Group provides programs for skill development to those community members who face cognitive and physical disabilities. The Grendel Group runs three programs including GrendeLivery, a catering service, GrendelGrow, a gardening program and the Grendel Players, a theatre arts program. Among his responsibilities, Buth lists, food delivery, picking up the mail, watering the Grendel garden every weekend and other tasks requiring the use of his bike. “It keeps me busy
and it gets me out of the house,” Buth said were the main reasons he enjoyed working with the Grendel Group. Buth, a bike rider since his childhood, said he’s never had much interest in owning a car and so using his bike to get his errands done suits him just fine. In addition, Buth has begun a small recycling service. “I’ve always wanted to work for myself,” he said. “Just to be doing something and this opportunity just sort of came up.” Buth cycles to Alpine Estates twice a week to collect paper, cardboard and plastics. After sorting
through the material, Buth then hops on his bike and pedals out to the Smithers recycling depot. “It can be tiring, it’s just the climb up the hill,” he said. In addition to the exercise and the contentment he derives from working with the Grendel Group, Buth said he is also aware using a bike reduces his impact on the environment. “It means I’m not using fuel,” he said. The Grendel Group places a strong emphasis on reducing emissions by biking whenever possible. For example, a second-hand bike was recently purchased for the Support Worker to
bike to the community gardens. Vegetables used in the catering business are grown in gardens and greenhouses located next door to the Grendel building on Second Avenue, on property owned by Ellen Hansen, as well as at the community garden at Elks Park. In addition to using the produce in their catering business, the Grendel Group also supply produce to Groundbreakers Harvest Boxes and Nature’s Pantry Health Food Store. The Grendel catering business got a shot in the arm last year with the installation of a wheelchair-accessible kitchen.

Local nurse receives provincial award By Amara Janssens Smithers/Interior News
Shelley Irvine received the Award of Excellence in Nursing Practice by the College of Registered Nurses of B.C. this past April. Irvine said she was caught off guard when she received the nomination last summer. Irvine was travelling in Europe when she was tracked down by phone to confirm whether or not she would accept the nomination. She accepted, and then says she completely forgot about the award nomination as she didn’t hear anything until months later. It wasn’t until December, when she received flowers at work. She called back the sender, who was a colleague, and explained that she thought the flowers were sent to the wrong Shelley. That’s when she was told she had won the award of Excellence in Nursing Practice, and would later find the official notification from the College of Registered Nurses of B.C. arrive in the mail. “It was a surprise and wonderful,” Irvine said. Irvine is a diabetes nurse educator who
started the local Healthy Living Centre in 1990. The centre is dedicated to providing services and support to individuals with diabetes in Smithers, Houston, and Moricetown. Irvine was nominated for the award by fellow diabetes nurse educators from Terrace, Kitimat, Haida Gwaii and Smithers. Each of these communities have one diabetes nurse educator, and much like colleagues from one office work together, these nurses collaborate and grow professionally from one another. Together, they make up The Diabetes Educator Sector Northwest. Every year they take it upon themselves to convene to have their own professional development workshops. “You are only as good as your team,” Irvine said. Irvine is usually asked to lead these workshops, as she’s been here the longest, she said. Six awards were up for grabs at the annual nursing excellence award ceremony held at the Fairmont Hotel in Vancouver. Three categories were judged to determine award winners,
including general criteria, professional standards as well as the criteria for specific awards. Professionalism, innovation, leadership, and interpersonal skills were the main emphasis for general and professional criteria. The award of Excellence in Nursing Practice was based on nursing knowledge, clinical decisionmaking, professional accountability, responsibility, and application of research. Irvine graduated as a registered nurse in 1982 from the British Columbia Institute of Technology. Prior to moving to northern B.C., Irvine travelled and practiced nursing internationally. Looking for adventure, she went to New Zealand shortly after graduation and worked at a hospital for a few months. She travelled to Nepal where she also practiced nursing. In the late 1980s, Irvine met her husband and together they made Quick, B.C., their home for them and their four children. When Irvine retires she plans to pick up travelling again. First on her list is to nurse in India.

Education key to bike safety By Ryan Jensen Smithers/Interior News
Dr. Clare Moisey has seen it all. In his more than 40 years as a pediatrician, Moisey has seen cyclists’ lives changed forever because they weren’t obeying the law. Whether it was not wearing a helmet or failing to follow the rules of the road, Moisey said he doesn’t feel the issue is being taken seriously enough. “It’s getting worse,” Moisey said. “We have a bicycle helmet law in B.C. that is not being followed and I’ve seen parents with children going straight through stop signs when making right hand turns and I’ve seen adults and children going up and down Main St. going through stop signs.” Moisey said he is tired of seeing what he called preventable injuries. “My main concern is that somebody is going to get terminally injured and the person that hits the individual is going to be emotionally scarred for life,” he said. While Town of Smithers Prevention and Community Safety Officer Matt Davey agrees there is a lot of
room for improvement in this area, he said he believes people in town are starting to get the overall bike safety message. “It used to be the kids always had their helmets on and the two parents didn’t,” he said. “Lately, I’ve been seeing entire families wearing helmets. “I’ve actually noticed a shift.” The Town of Smithers, along with ICBC, hosted a bike rodeo this week, looking to teach Bulkley Valley youth the ins and outs of cycling. “The bike rodeo is aimed at education,” Davey said. “I think there’s a lot of people riding around who aren’t aware of the rules of the road.” When riding a bicycle, the rules are simple, he said. “All the same rules apply to cyclists as motor vehicles.” Children in Grade 3 and 4 were taught competent bike handling, how to signal and pedestrian safety. The Town of Smithers also provided 40 brand new helmets for kids who are deemed not to have proper headgear. Earlier in May a bike rodeo was held
in Telkwa for students too, Davey said. The RCMP also play a pivotal role in ensuring cyclists stay safe. Smithers Staff Sgt. Kirsten Marshall said the RCMP’s bike patrols focus on both education and enforcement. Positive tickets, usually donated items from Bulkley Valley businesses, are given to those found following the rules and bylaw or violation tickets are handed out when people fail to obey the law, she said.

Need to Balance your Career and Family?
There are currently four regular RCMP members and two auxiliary officers trained for the bike patrol, who generally go out in pairs. “We do not have enough resources to have a full-time bike patrol unit,” Staff Sgt. Marshall said. “[The bike patrol members] primarily target the downtown core and focus on road safety on bikes, helmet usage, riding on sidewalks, failing to obey stop signs, as well as drug and alcohol offences.”

C OMMUNITY Mixed seed a favourite of several Bulkley Valley birds
I
was trying to decide if I should mention the snowfall warning for Fort Nelson. I guess it is OK since I see from the long range forecast that the weather will be sunny and quite warm for a few days. The northwest is having some rain which maybe is a good thing when you consider how dry things have been. A good rain seems to bring along a number of birds. Some had mentioned that fewer spring birds were around, but today a lot of reports came in. The first American redstart for this region was seen by Barb in Topley. Some in the Prince George area as well. I must share with all of you the excitement here today. My 20 year old crow Eddy laid an egg.
She seemed quite pleased with herself. The egg broke so I gave it to the wild crows. Doesn’t seem to take much to amuse Eddy and I. Sharon from Smithers said she saw a kestrel sitting on the telephone wires leading to Babine area. Alison from Fort Nelson who had seen the Eurasian Collared dove says it is not there now but she will try for a picture. That would be good. Proof positive. I still have the black backed woodpeckers here. I did have them a few years ago . They are having a go at some of the pine beetles. The red-breasted sap sucker is out and about. Three reports today. Still have a couple
Sparrows and juncos like that stuff but it seems too much is spilled on the ground. The pigeons and pheasants eat it as well. It just might be better to go for a better product. For those in the Bulkley Valley check out the Smithers feed store. They have a mixed seed product that is a good mixture. Maybe a bit expensive but since you are using more of the seed it might be a good buy. Some have asked if the morel mushrooms are up. I have seen a couple and that is it. I think it might have been a bit too dry. Maybe after this bit of rain we might see more of them. Another tasty food offered by mother
FOR THE BIRDS Brenda Mallory here making holes in my birch trees. In all these years there seems to be little damage to the trees. Cindy from Fort Nelson has three redbreasted grosbeaks at her feeder, a first for her. She is feeding black oil sunflower seed. Talking about seed. I bought a big bag of the mixed seed the other day. Way too much millet in the bag.
nature is fireweed. When it is still young the green bits can be cooked like spinach. Has a lot of the same vitamins. etc. Wild strawberry flowers are out as well as high bush cranberry, gooseberry and raspberry. Lots of wild flowers to come on when warmer days come our way. While walking in the field today another dog walker asked me what that strange sound was. It is the common
snipe who insists on making that pulsating who-who sound. The noise is made when air rushes through the parted tail feathers. All in aide of the mating process. Good thing I am not a snipe. I’ll be darned if I can ever see those birds. Not that it matters of course. Has anyone seen a western tanager yet? Let me know when you do. The rain is still falling so I will check the hummingbird
feeders. By the way if you are the one who dumped the lovely black cat in my property I have to tell you I cannot find her. Maybe she went home. Just the same look after your animals . I have enough to do. Glad I got that off my chest. The plan is , another stick of wood in the wood stove, and I will wait for your calls to 250-846-5095 or those e-mail notes to mallory@bulkley. net.

Victoria Day commemorates the birthday of Queen Victoria, the British sovereign, in 1819. After Victoria’s death in 1901, an act of the Canadian Parliament established Victoria Day as a legal holiday, to be celebrated on the Monday before May 24. It has now become a day for Canadians to celebrate all British sovereigns’ birthdays I am sure that all of you ladies who
have reached the glorious age of 50 are encouraged by your doctor to have a mammogram. A very few minutes of discomfort to keep you safe, but after reaching 70 you are usually no longer advised to have one, unless you have had problems in the past. Why is this? Because after 70 you have the wonderful chance of being more likely to die of a heart attack or stroke than breast cancer. Usually women over 70 do not live with the notion they could have a heart or stroke and how it could profoundly change their lives. But they do fear cancer. Talk to your doctor, get it sorted out so you know your risks. Food Secure Canada has their May newsletter out and look at the definition of the word “local” when it comes to food labelling.

It was a busy week on the local stages last Thursday with students at Smithers secondary school performing MacBeth at the Della Herman Theatre (top). The play was the culmination of work which began in October and attracted the assistance of Mike Stack, a Lower Mainland teacher, director and actor. “I am impressed with this school’s drama program,” Stack, who met Heather Lyttle and Hans Saefkow at the Bard on the Beach festival in Vancouver, said. “This play isn’t possible without a lord and lady MacBeth and those roles were filled wonderfully here.” Meanwhile, Rachelle van Zanten shared new and old songs with a full house at Glenwood Hall. The Racket, took the stage after van Zanten for a short set. Percy N. Hébert and Jerome Turner photos

Moricetown raises over $4,100 for cancer research By Jerome Turner Hazelton/Interior News
More than a dozen people from the Wet’suwet’en community donated their hair to help raise money for the 2013 Relay for Life campaign. Relay for Life, a national event that raised more than $51 million in 2012, is a combined fundraising effort and celebration for those who have survived or are fighting the various forms of the disease. Elaine Stevens, Moricetown health centre nurse, took the lead in organizing the event after requests from the community. “It’s amazing the community came together in this way,” Stevens said. “I didn’t think it would be this big.” A packed transitstyle bus from Hagwilget arrived before the event. In all the Wet’suwet’en raised more than $4,100 toward cancer research, which included a gift basket auction. But the most surprising part of the event was that it was happening at all, Stevens said. “First Nations people usually don’t donate their hair for any cause because it hasn’t been our way,” Stevens said. With that considered the event was started by a prayer for the donors and recipients of the
locks shed during the ceremony. “Another thing was the amount of men who gave hair,” Stevens said. “There were quite a few first happening that day.” One of the firsts was Stevens’ son Cam, who was the inaugural cut of the afternoon. It was his first ever hair cut and he did so in honour of Marlaine Skulsh, who was like a mother to his father Cam Sr. and passed away last year. “He was very emotional while in the chair,” Stevens said. “But that was just the beginning of a very emotional day.” Another young donor, Jada Dominic, only participated if her hair went to another young girl, which she was assured it would be attempted by the B.C. Cancer Society. All hair donated will go to the regional cancer office in Prince George, where recipients will be determined based on need. To donate hair it had to be all natural, meaning never dyed and one participant had been unknowingly preparing for quite some time. Trina Alfred stood out as the donor giving up the most, as her hair measured slightly more than 60 centimetres long segments. Now that an event where a First Nations community in northwestern B.C. has begun to donate hair,

Stevens hopes a trend has started. “Our First Nations communities are being hit pretty hard by cancer,” Stevens said. “It doesn’t matter who you are you can get this disease.” Moricetown has also started a proactive approach in the hopes of detecting cancer early in susceptible individuals. “We’ve been taking ladies 10 at a time for breast exams in Smithers,” Stevens said. “Three women have been called back and we lost one of them because it was too late. “The other two are undergoing treatment.” But now the early detection exams can be done at the Moricetown health centre and every Wednesday a doctor visits to conduct prostate exams for concerned men. Two teams are uniting for the Relay for Life event under the Sargent Rock and the Rebels banner, which includes several RCMP officers and Wet’suwet’en community members. Stevens encourages any and all who wish to take part in the Relay for Life in Smithers June 8, which is a 12-hour walk around the track at Smithers secondary school.

As of May 6 the Northwest Fire Centre has been at full fire crew capacity. Initial Attack crews, three member crews, are situated two apiece in Terrace, Hazelton, Telkwa and Burns Lake. Unit crews, which consist of 20 members and normally battle medium to large fires, are also at the above bases. Suzanne Pearce, Ministry of Forest media representative for the northwest zone, said crews are nearing full
encounter in the field. There have been 26 total fires in the northwest zone, which stretches from south of Kitimat, east of Burns Lake and north to the Yukon/ B.C. border, since April 1, 2013. “We currently have one Initial Attack crew on stand-by at the Dease Lake base,” Pearce said on May 24. “That is the hottest and driest area within
our zone right now. “And there’s an Initial Attack crew on stand-by at each base over the weekend.” The northern portion of the zone is expected to be the most active over the next couple of weeks, where potential for fire is concerned, Pearce said. “Temperatures have dropped in the last little while,” she said. “But we haven’t got a lot of rain yet. “So people shouldn’t take the low temperatures for granted.” To report a wildfire call 1-800-6635555 or text *5555.

New artist a shut in, but not at all by choice By Jerome Turner Hazelton/Interior News
Cindy Heske, formerly of Kitimat, now lives near South Hazelton and has an arts and crafts show at the Misty River Art Gallery. Heske, under the direction of Kitimat doctors, chose the Hazelton area for her relocation because of her ailment. For more than 18 years she has dealt with what is known as Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, which is a hyper-sensitivity to a plethora of airborne and chemical agents. “If ever I go to a hospital I usually end up in the emergency room because of all the chemicals involved in a hospital,” Heske said. “So I pretty much stay as close to home as possible.” Heske has to carry an epi-pen wherever she goes because she never knows when she’ll encounter a chemical that will trigger a reaction. One specific reason led to Heske’s relocation. “The air quality in Kitimat was the major reason I had to move,” she said. “I’m highly allergic to diesel and chlorine, so I have to stay away from most major centres. The only real difficulty Heske has now is when her neighbors burn wood stoves, but that is more easily dealt with

than keeping adequate drinking water for herself. “I can’t drink the tap water here,” she said. Even if I boil it more than once I have to throw it out, so I basically drink spring water.” However, all the environmental limitations have fostered an artistic side. “I paint a lot now,” Heske said, adding that she started dabbling in art around 2005. “I do a bit of everything from abstract,
to landscapes and still life.” Heske gets by on full-time disability stemming from MCS, but is hoping to get a few sales from her creative ventures. “The Grand Cache, Best Western hotel actually bought one of my paintings a while back,” Heske said. “But the first painting I sold was to an art gallery in Alberta and I was kinda like, ‘I can do that?’ “And have been painting ever since.” Along with painting, she crochets and makes beaded ostrich eggs.
“They’re really unique pieces of work,” she said. “I haven’t even been able to find anything like them on the Internet. “I make stands for them to sit on as well.” Although Heske hasn’t made one sale at Misty River, she is undaunted. “I have a pretty good life here,” she said about her house, which is made of recycled wooden palettes. “I have a gorgeous view of the Seven Sisters.”

Egenolf family makes sunny business venture By Jerome Turner Hazelton/Interior News
A renewable energy business has sprouted in the Bulkley Valley and the owners are also clients. John and Angelika Egenolf own Green Biomass and Solar Energy Solutions and operate from an off-grid farm near Smithers. The couple, along with sons, Michael and Markus, moved from Germany to Canada in 2007 and the family hopes people and businesses realize there are options to conventional power sources. “We are relatively new to the area but the technology we’re promoting isn’t new at all,” Egenolf said while looking at both his biomass and oil generators. “We power our
entire farm with a mixture of solar power and a vegetable oil generator and that power is stored in batteries.” Egenolf actually brought a more than 100-year-old proven method to the area. In 1900, inventor Rudolf Diesel showed a diesel engine could run on peanut oil, according to centreforenergy.com. Egenolf wonders why people haven’t made the switch, which he says is a fairly simple process. “There is only a hand-full of renewable energy homes in the northwest that I know of,” Egenolf said. “Once we set up panels and the generator all we had to do was cut the power lines.” A branch of his business that is under development is the biomass power manufacturing
system, which turns wood chips into gaseous fuel and can also provide heat. “This was popular in the 1980s, especially in Europe,” Egenolf said. “Since the early 2000s these gasification systems have risen in popularity, but mostly for large-scale operations.” The wood chipbiomass system is fairly complex, but Egenolf is confident anyone can run it, once installed. “In the old days these biomass systems required a knowledgable operator,” he said. “Now it is mainly regulated by computer.” What sets Egenolf biomass systems apart is the ability to run completely off-grid, should a client require that option. “This will be for

remote homesteads,” he said. “The machine would run 24/7, but we are still in the development stages on this.” An available
facet of GBSES is a portable solar panelbiofuel system. This, Egenolf hopes, will become preferable to the diesel generators used by remote power sources
used currently by industry. “We are working on a lightweight version that will be helicopter transportable,” Egenolf said.
“We have to make sure the structure is sound first and then we will market those to industry.” For more information visit biomassenergies.net.

Brant Guido Holenstein Oct. 29, 1992 to May 8, 2013
Brant was born in Smithers, BC on October 29, 1992. He was a chubby little toddler with his mom’s beautiful brown eyes; he brought spice and spunk into our family. Brant was an amazing young man with a big heart and big smile for whoever needed it. He was relentless and passionate in all he pursued, whether it was snowboarding, dirt biking, hunting, kickboxing, soccer, drawing or spending time with his friends. Well known for his BIG bear hug, his wisdom, his generosity, his quick wit or even his in-the-moment attitude. Brant was NEVER scared of anything; he lived with no fear; he loved life and was full of it. He had life at his fingertips with so much to offer and was taken away way too soon. Brant died doing what he loved; and was taken home in a tragic work accident on May 8, 2013. Brant’s passion for snowboarding will be a long lasting legacy throughout the North. His abilities were well known by many. He won lots of rail jams, spent many winters up on the hill, and seized the opportunity to take in “Camp of Champions” in Whistler. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the “Boarding 4 Brant Fund” set up for kids in our community who would otherwise be unable to go boarding. For simplicity, please make cheques payable to Rayz Board Shop. (Charitable donation receipts will be available). Brant leaves behind parents, Guido & Tanya Holenstein, brother Blake & Ashley & Titus Holenstein, sister Amanda & Ryan Recina, sister Brooke Holenstein & fiance Nick Bandstra, Krista Cline and countless family and friends. Brant gave a lot of love and received a lot of love. Our hearts are crushed, but our Anchor holds. Brant you will be greatly missed beyond words. We will hold you in our hearts forever. Until we meet again Bruizer... we love YOU!! ‘Every single second that you live you are never going to get take back. You are never going to get to change what you said, didn’t say, did, or didn’t do. Live how you want to live. Act how you want to be remembered, because you never know how long or short you are going to be here.’ A quote that Brant lived by, posted on his Facebook page on March 6, 2013.

A tale of two tourneys
“We can pull together or we can pull apart.” - John Steinbeck, Grapes of Wrath
F
or as long as I can remember there has been a May long-weekend soccer tournament in the Hazelton area. I have played for my village team, Gitanmaax Strikers, for 22 years and am always excited to take the field to represent the Gitxsan Nation and compete against other villages in the area. I also remember teams from other provinces and parts of B.C. coming to our tournaments regularly, which only happens sparingly now. Being able to play against as many different teams as possible on any given weekend is a luxury that seems to have disappeared lately. In the 1990s, tournaments were filled with teams loaded with players who were as skilled as they were fit. Now I’m not saying there has been a big dropoff in skill, but fitness has decreased considerably across the region. I realize it is early in the season. But, there are fewer athletic opportunities aside from the few basketball, volleyball and drop-in hockey league for those who are beyond high-school age enabling people to compete and maintain a high level of fitness. It is great that Kitwanga holds a scrub tournament and soccer for children. But I have a problem that I feel needs to be addressed before 2014. There should be one tournament over the May long-weekend. Here is a possible solution. May 17 to May 20 there were two tournaments: one in Gitsegukla and one in Kitwanga. This is absurd to me. Each tournament boasted eight teams and lasted four days. Nass Valley teams went to the Kitwanga competition, while a teams from Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Prince Rupert went to Gitsegukla. I will avoid sorting through the reasons why there seems to be a rift between the two host villages. But, and this is directed at the organizers of both tournaments, think about the potential of a 16 team tournament for a second. Ideally, there would be four groups of four teams, which would compete in a round-robin format and guarantee each team three games apiece. Weekend and day pass profits could be split down the middle as games would be held in both villages and alternate hosting the final game each year. Both existing tournaments are good as is, but would be amazing if forces were joined. The ability to attract teams from across Canada would be bolstered and a certain amount of co-operaiton would only strengthen ties within the Gitxsan community, as well. It would give those that may lack motivation over the winter months something to train for specifically. Gitxsan Invitational has a nice ring to it. Again, it is just an idea. Personally I see great potential in creating something that brings people together and spreads the work-load over more people, as many hands make light work. What the dickens are you waiting for - an invitation? Jerome Turner/Interior News

The female was unable to provide a licence plate and described the vehicle as a blue car. On May 13, 2013, A break-and-enter occurred at the Kispiox School.
