Wanted: New gas pipeline to Elk Falls Paul Rudan Campbell RiveR miRRoR
A new pipeline to Campbell River is needed before the former Elk Falls mill site can be converted into a liquified natural gas (LNG) plant. This week the new owners, Quicksilver Resources Canada Inc., launched a website (www.discoverylng.com) outlying its comprehensive plans for the former pulp and paper mill site, located just north of the city. According to the website: Continued on A5

Paul Rudan/The MiRRoR
We asked: Should volunteers be allowed to clean up city parks?
Work is well underway on the new downtown Seymour Pacific Developments office. In the coming weeks, the city will also begin replacing downtown underground utilities, so commuters can expect delays and detours by month’s end.
Expect detours and delays with big downtown project Paul Rudan Campbell RiveR miRRoR
It’s a big project with an ambitious completion time. The Downtown Revitalization Project begins this month and
is expected to be completed by December. It will create traffic delays and detours, but the shortterm headaches will be worth the long-term gains, according the city’s capital works manager. “It’s going to look very differ-
ent downtown – it’s going to look good,” says Jason Hartley, who admits it won’t be easy. “This is a really complicated logistical project – a lot has to get done in a short period of time.” The $4.7-million project was

Handyman Challenge
Aspiring carpenters put the hammer to the nail last weekend during the annual Handyman Challenge in support of the Campbell River Head Injury Society. Seven teams took part in the challenge which began Saturday morning and wrapped up on Sunday afternoon. The sheds will be auctioned off this Saturday, June 15, 1 p.m. at Robert Ostler Park. Pictured clockwise from right are: James Kay who works on the siding at the front of his shed. A team from Shaw got in on the building action. Peter Trumbley, left, and his brother Wyatt Trumbley built a shed in support of their mom who suffered a brain injury. Boards and planks were hauled all around the Robert Ostler Park parking lot as teams raced to finish their sheds and playhouses. Kristen Douglas/the Mirror

a greener and more contemporary look. The area, known as the St. Ann’s Block, surrounds the new office for Seymour Pacific Developments which is just under construction. The city’s revitalization project is occurring at the same time in order to minimize disruptions to commuters and businesses. The city’s project goes from St. Ann’s Road to 10th Avenue, and also incorporates Alder, B eech and Dubeau streets. Hartley says there will be a significant difference along Beech and Dubeau which will feature wider sidewalks, more trees and plants, and the new black lamp street lights. Hartley says the vision is to create a cohesive flow from the city hall park to the downtown core that incorporates more greenery with as much parking as they could fit in. It’s about balance,

he says, that takes into account drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, businesses and visitors. “I compare it to Granville Island – there are trees that are spaced sensibly and it creates a park-like setting,” says Hartley. There are many challenges to the project and the main one is cost constraint. There’s work that could be done, but won’t because there’s not enough money in the budget. However, Hartley says provisions will be taken to allow for future expansion of services which tie into the new infrastruc-
ture. The biggest short-term problem will be traffic flow. Drivers who commute north and south along Alder Street will be the most impacted. You can expect road closures for thru traffic, but there will still be access to area businesses, especially for delivery vehicles. And the one advantage of Campbell River’s tentacle-like downtown streets is there are several detour options. Traffic disruptions could very well begin before the big Canada Day events downtown and Hartley says the one
of the main project goals is to get the roads open to traffic as soon as possible. Following that, work can begin on the streetscaping. Some of this is weather-permitting and final plantings of trees and shrubs may not occur until next spring in order to ensure they survive. The city intends to provide the public with regular updates on construction and detours. Learn more about the project at www.campbellriver.ca or e-mail questions and comments to capitalprojects@campbellriver.ca
Quick facts: n Quicksilver bought the Elk Falls site for $8.6 million from Catalyst Paper in May. n Just a small portion of the 400acre industrial site would be needed to build an LNG plant. n The site already has a deep water port. n As Discovery LNG moves forward with its potential reclamation and remediation, it will investigate opportunities to enhance eel grass on former booming grounds and methods to support the nearby Quinsam River hatchery. n An LNG plant cools natural gas to -162 degrees Celsius.

The Staff of RE/MAX Check Realty are very pleased to announce Milton Senft has joined their office. Milton has been successful in the Campbell River real estate profession since commencing his career in 2007. Prior to being licensed as a Realtor®, Milton was the owner and principal of Discovery Harbour Yacht Sales.
REMAX
Milton first came to Campbell River as a mining surveyor. He took a short holiday to Australia that lasted 18 years but it was the beauty of Campbell River and his great fishing memories that finally ended Milton’s holiday and brought him back home to Campbell River.
“The potential project will undergo a feasibility study and once complete, and upon regulatory approval, Quicksilver would construct a facility that would convert produced natural gas, primarily from British Columbia, into LNG for export to Pacific Rim markets in Asia.” Discovery LNG is the new name for the Elk Falls site and is potentially a multi-billion dollar project. Quicksilver says Campbell River is a “highly suitable location for LNG export,” but the key will be getting the gas here because the existing pipeline isn’t large enough. Quicksilver, a Calgary-based oil and gas exploration company, produces processed natural gas at sites in the Horn River Basin, located in northeastern B.C. The plan is to move that gas through existing pipelines to the Lower Mainland and then find a third party to build a new pipeline to Vancouver Island and Campbell River. Quicksilver is planning to begin the regulatory process for the project before year’s end. Pending regulatory approvals and permits, construction
for the first phase of the potential project is expected to take approximately four years, with the plant anticipated to be operational by 2019. The company also said it intends to hold “significant” consultations with the public and First Nations, and would do site remediation at Elk Falls following a thorough environmental review. The potential project would also go through the environmental assessment process.

h2X5 Alder Street residents fed up 25t2X5 Kristen Douglas
Campbell RiveR miRRoR
The fallout from the reconfiguration of the Dogwood Street traffic lights continued Tuesday night as an Alder Street resident came before council to express concerns that his residential street has become a freeway. Ted Haylow said the citizens who live along Alder Street are fed up with the way motorists drive down the street and the city has done nothing about it. “Ever since the reconfiguration to the lights on Dogwood and the modifications to the roadways on Murphy Street and Highway 19A, Alder Street has become a freeway for speeders and heavy traffic,� Haylow said. “We have wait-
ing patiently for the city to work on our behalf to slow the traffic on Alder before someone is killed. After all, it was the city that redirected the traffic from Dogwood.� A group of frustrated Alder residents banded together to form the Alder Street Coalition in 2010 in response to reckless drivers moving over to Alder Street, prompted by the new lights on Dog wood and construction along Highway 19A. The coalition appeared in front of council and in response the city took speed readings of the traffic along Alder but determined vehicle speed wasn’t overly excessive. Residents at the time complained that traffic often travelled over the posted 50 km/hr speed limit and reported see-
ing several near misses of people nearly being hit at crosswalks. Three years later, Haylow said those problems still persist. He said the biggest problem is there is nothing to slow down the traffic along Alder between Rockland Road and 2nd Avenue. He said the four-way stop at 2nd and Alder is working well in his opinion and he requested council install the same traffic pattern at Merecroft and Alder which he said has become one of the worst intersections in town. “The city has made the situation worse by installing left-hand turn lanes at Alder and Merecroft,� Haylow said. “The residents of this street see near misses almost regularly. They have almost been hit while walking
in crosswalks, they have almost been hit while walking along the road, they’ve almost been hit while taking out the garbage, they’ve almost been hit while pulling out of their driveways. “Cars constantly speed, tail gate and most of all, drive without due care and attention,� Haylow added. Coun. Andy Adams asked Ron Neufeld, the city’s general manager of operations, what the cost would be to install two more stop signs at the Merecroft and Alder street intersection. Neufeld responded that it would cost the city between $100,000 and $200,000. Neufeld added that $25,000 is in this year’s budget to complete a study on the Alder Street corridor – from
one end to the other. A further $300,000 is tentatively targeted for 2014 to implement the improvements recommended in the study. Coun. Mary Storry wanted to further investigate improving Alder and made a motion to have staff report back on the feasibility and costs of converting the intersection at Alder and Merecroft into a fourway stop with flashing lights. Haylow said those improvements would fit with the city’s plan for the street and are just common sense. “Our patience has run out, they use stop signs to slow traffic on four-lane roads in Palm Springs,� Haylow said. “Let’s learn something to save our roads and our lives.�

What is the amount of the grant available? For 2013, the maximum: BASIC Home Owner Grant is $770
ADDITIONAL Home Owner Grant is $1,045 ($570 + $275) Note: The Home Owner Grant amount is reduced or eliminated based on property value and minimum property tax payable. What are my payment options? Payment methods accepted by the City of Campbell River: • Online banking through your bank • Interac (ensure your daily and/or transaction limit will cover the amount of your payment) • Cheque • Cash What happens if property taxes go unpaid? The City of Campbell River is governed by the Community Charter which legislates a 10 per cent penalty be imposed on any property taxes that remain outstanding after the July due date. This legislation does not give authority to the City to waive late penalty charges and is applied consistently to all taxpayers. Your payment and Home Owner Grant (if eligible) must be received by the City of Campbell River on or before the due date to avoid penalty charges. Grants not claimed or incomplete are considered unpaid taxes and will result in penalty charges.

Not the ideal place, one would think, to locate a facility to burn garbage, We say: We let alone import the stuff from Metro Vancouver. offer our early The topic came up at the Strathcona and strident Regional District board meeting on Wednesday. It’s not an imminent thing, opposition but clearly the trial balloon has been floated and it caught the attention of some regional district officials up and down the Island. Metro Vancouver needs a place to dump its garbage.
Burning that garbage to create energy sounds like a reasonable goal. Just not here, thank you very much. To be clear, there is no specific deal or site named for Vancouver’s trash. And this could end up being much ado about nothing, at least for Island residents. But a shortlist of 10 companies bidding to build a new waste-to-energy plant was announced last week. A potential site for the incinerator could be Duke Point in the industrial heartland of Nanaimo. That’s a little too close to home and scary. We aren’t concerned about the fact these are early days in this discussion. We don’t care if there really is no plan to barge Vancouver’s garbage to the Island. We offer our early and strident opposition to this idea right now,
even if it was just a trial balloon. The up sides? Some will say jobs, some will say the creation of a renewable energy system, some may even say that if the garbage was trucked rather than barged, and used our ferry system, it could boost the bottom line and save B.C. Ferries. All of that is rubbish, pun fully intended. It would be rude to identify specific communities and regions of the province here and now, but if anyone is asking, we could easily provide a long list of B.C. locations for Vancouver’s garbage, places which are less environmentally sensitive, less reliant on tourism dollars, less beautiful. Hey Vancouver – don’t even start looking in a westerly direction for your garbage solutions. -Black Press

Twice in 70 years Senate has proved its worth
Your editorial to abolish the Senate is both short sighted and arrogant! In the 70-plus years that I have lived in Canada I have known the Senate to twice hold up the passing of legislation as they found it would be detrimental to the majority of Canadian citizens. In one case it needed some word changes in the other clarification. They saved the public a great deal of time, money and anguish. Let me explain in words that you may be able to understand. The Senate is like having house insurance, you hope that you never have to make a claim against it but if you cancel it and your house burns you will wish that you had continued the payments. That is what the Senate is all about, insurance against detrimental legislation being passed. I fully agree the Senate needs to be brought into the 21st century and members be more accountable but abolishing it is not the answer.

Lots happening on Campbell River’s waterfront

GORGEOUS VIEW...Wasn’t that a lovely sight seeing all those sailboats blowing into Discovery Passage Monday? Kristen Douglas’ front page shot of the main pack of sailboats in the Black Press Van Isle 360 yacht race captured the beauty of blue waters, azure skies and colourful sails as the racers battled a sudden drop in wind by unfurling every inch of sail they could. It made for a picturesque moment. There were a few people who made it down to the Discovery Pier and the foreshore to watch the boats come in. Campbell River is lucky in that we are one point in the round-Vancouver Island race that has a grandstand-like view of the race as the boats complete the third leg.
TANKS FOR THE AQUARIUM... Another great addition to the community opened last Saturday. The Discovery Passage Aquarium opened on Oceans Day and was an instant hit. People lined up to be the first through the small but informative aquarium. The Discovery Passage Sea Life Society, which operates the aquarium, has hit on a good idea by showing the fascinating sea life that lives in the very waters just a few feet away. After a season of exhibiting, the sea stars, rockfish and anemones will be released back into the local ocean. And while a lot of the animals in the tank will be deeper water denizens, our intertidal zone is very accessible in the Campbell River area. The Willow Point Reef in the very low tides of spring is
always a fascinating place to visit. There you can see many of these animals “in the wild.” I always love seeing the bed of purple sea urchins towards the end of the reef. TheDiscovery Passage Sea Life Society will also use the facility to educate people about their local oceans. The first of a series of presentations begins June 20 with a talk about cetaceans or whales, dolphins and the like. See the story on page A15. WHAT’S GOING ON AT THE MILL?...Meanwhile, the question on everybody’s mind these days is what is going to be done with the Elk Falls Mill site that was bought by Quicksilver Resources of Canada Ltd. for $8.5 million? Well, the company has put together a
website (www.discoverylng.com) that at least shows what they’re thinking about. The website says “upon regulatory approval, Quicksilver would construct a facility that would convert produced natural gas primarily from British Columbia into LNG for export to Pacific Rim markets in Asia.” “Processed natural gas would arrive at Discovery LNG through a yet to-be determined transmission method from Quicksilver’s sites in the Horn River Basin in Northeastern B.C. Once arrived at Discovery LNG, the gas would be converted from a gaseous form to a liquid form through refrigeration to allow for efficient offshore transportation. In liquid form, the gas would travel by highly advanced, specially designed LNG carriers to LNG receiving terminals in Asia.”

Feds to step up farm fish inspection The Canadian Food In s p e c t i on Ag e n c y (CFIA) intends to step up monitoring of farmed salmon for potential disease. This week the federal agency released its results after sampling 4,175 wild
salmon caught throughout the B.C. coast in 2012. In a news release, the agency said all samples tested negative for infectious salmon anaemia (ISA). The samples were also tested for either infectious haematopoietic necrosis or infectious
pancreatic necrosis and these tests were also negative. However, biologist Alexandra Morton, a well-known opponent of netpen salmon farming, wondered why the agency only sampled wild fish? “If I could ask one question it would be:
Why is the CFIA not looking for this Atlantic (ISA) virus in the millions of Atlantic salmon in feedlots in B.C.? Wouldn’t that be the first place to look?” she asked in a news release. According to Morton, ISA in in the influenza family and has appeared in every other region of

the world where Atlantic salmon are raised in netpens. She said it has killed more salmon than any other virus known, causing $2 billion in damages in Chile. However, regular provincial and federal testing of farmed Atlantic salmon does occur in B.C. According to November 2012 news release from the CFIA, in recent years, more than 5,000 wild and farmed salmon in B.C. have been tested by the federal government and the province and none have ever tested positive for the ISA disease. Still, the federal agency said it intends to step up monitoring of fish farms. “The CFIA is…finalizing an evaluation of on-going farmed salmon testing activities in B.C. The next steps for onfarm surveillance will be communicated in the fall of 2013,” said spokesman Rod Lister, in response to questions from the Mirror. And that’s just fine with Mary Ellen Walling, executive director of the BC Salmon Farmers Association. “This is work we’d like to see them continue to do,” she said.

Willow Point a challenge for Telus to cover Kristen Douglas
Campbell RiveR miRRoR
Telus considered locations other than Willow Point Park to put up a new cell phone tower, but they were all turned down. Brent Shannon, on behalf of Telus, was explaining to council at its Tuesday night meeting why Telus chose the spot near the bocce ball court and baseball diamond for a monopole to enhance spotty cell phone coverage in Willow Point. “We know there are no other locations, we exhausted our search,” Shannon said. “We were unable to move forward with the college on an agreement – it was close to moving forward but it got turned down. We also approached the (Church of) Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints but that didn’t work out.” Shannon noted that the area around Willow Point Park is a hard area to work. “It’s a very difficult area to cover because of the terrain,” Shannon said. “It’s heavily treed in the park and in and around
the college (NIC). It’s also very residential, so there’s few areas to pursue to enhance coverage in the area.” Shannon said the location in Willow Point Park is a good location from Telus’ point of view and it’s a spot that was recommended by city staff. “The bottom line is what options are available if we don’t go here? And I’m saying there aren’t any. We tried really hard not to go into the houses. This spot puts the monopole at least 100 metres away from any one house,” Shannon added. But for Nan Latchford, an outspoken critic of the cell tower, that’s not good enough. She presented council with a 125-signature petition full of names that feel the same. “People expressed health concerns and don’t believe cell towers should be in parks and playgrounds,” Latchford said. “If the tower is there, there will be other antennas going up, this has happened in other communities. There are concerns about the increase in electrical equipment emitting
radio frequencies. We need to balance the benefits this technology has on our health.” Latchford’s main concern is radiation exposure and the health affects she’s been researching such as cancer and autism. Latchford asked council Tuesday night to deny Telus’ application for the cell tower. She also urged council to adopt its own cell tower protocol to identify areas that should be protected from radio frequencies, to improve information requirements of the proponent to the community, including a mandatory public meeting which did not happen with Telus’ proposal. While Latchford said there’s been a lack of transparency in the current process, Telus disagrees. Shannon said Telus has actually gone above and beyond. “On March 8 we mailed 22 information packages to residents who may have line of sight to the proposed tower,” Shannon said. “We’re not required to by Industry Canada but we did it to exceed expectations and notify people who would
FRIDAY, JUNE JUNE 14, 14, 2013 2013 || CAMPBELL CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || FRIDAY,
be most concerned out of proximity to their homes.” Shannon said Telus again exceeded expectations by advertising the public consultation period in two local papers and he noted there was additional attention on the cell tower as a result of newspaper articles that appeared after council meetings in which the tower was on the agenda. Shannon summed up the public feedback process for council, noting that of the 22 packages sent out by Telus, the company received five or six responses and three responded favourably. Shannon also acknowledged the petition sent around by Latchford that was received by Telus as well as 14 people who contacted Telus directly with concerns. Shannon said the top concerns were: the location in the park, health and safety, aesthetics, lighting, and property value. Shannon said the monopole will be tucked into the trees and, at 30 metres high, will likely be hidden from view. Telus also plans to paint
the tower green to blend in with the surrounding nature. Council is expected to make a decision on the tower at its June 25 council meeting. The city, if
the tower is approved, will receive an annual licence fee of $15,000 from Telus. Telus could be approached by other carriers such as Rogers and Mobilicity to use
A11 A11
Telus’ tower to improve their cell coverage. Telus can also extend the height of the tower by 25 per cent without applying to Industry Canada for the modification.

Eco-conscious ways to tend to your lawn
GARDENING GARDENING
Many homeowners are constantly on the lookout for ways to make their homes more environmentally friendly. Such a pursuit is both noble because it helps the environment and practical because it often saves money. While there are many eco-friendly improvements home owners make inside their homes, it’s important to note that there are several ways for men and women to be more environmentally conscious outside of their homes as well. Lawn care can be done in a way that’s conscious of the environment, and the results can be just as appealing as if the lawn were tended to without regard for the planet. The following are just a few of the many ways homeowners can adopt more eco-friendly practices when tending to their lawns.
l Be conscientious when watering. Overwatering a lawn is pretty common, especially during the dog days of summer, when homeowners try to overcompensate for hot days with excessive watering. The growth of moss on sidewalks or the driveway is a telltale sign that you’re watering too much, as is a standing pool of water on the grass. Homeowners who find it difficult to determine when their lawns have gotten enough water can purchase an intelligent irrigation control system that adapts your watering to a lawn’s needs as well as the weather. l Turn back the clock on your tools. Before gas mowers became the standard, man-powered push mowers were used to cut the grass. Such mowers still exist, and they require no fuel, making them a more eco-friendly
option than their gaspowered counterparts. Along those same lines, leaf blowers are a far less friendly way to rake leaves in the fall or clean the yard after a long winter. While there’s no denying their effectiveness, leaf blowers need gas to operate, while a rake just requires some elbow grease and a little extra time out in the yard. l Stay local. If you need to plant new grass or you’re beginning a garden, then stick with local plants, flowers and grasses rather than more exotic options that are not native to your area. Plants, flowers and grasses that aren’t native to your region will require more maintenance and often more watering. That added maintenance mig ht prove to be a headache, and that excessive watering will not be benefi-
A push mower that does not rely on gas to work is one way homeowners can take a more ecofriendly approach to lawn care.
cial to the environment. Native plants, flowers and grasses have already
A freshly sodded lawn Sod, sometimes called turf, can quickly turn a barren landscape into a rich, thick carpet of green. Homeowners hoping to revive their lawns commonly turn to sod as the quickest means to do just that. However, once the sod has been laid down, few homeowners may know how to keep it looking its best. Sod is real grass that is grown on special farms. It is generally grown locally to avoid long transport
times that could dry out the product. Sod is typically sold in squares or rolls of grass that come with the roots and soil already attached. There may be some sort of thin backing material on the sod to keep the grass blades together. Many homeowners turn to sod when growing lawn from seed becomes problematic or too timeconsuming. Seeds can be blown around in the wind or be eaten by birds and
A
nd
other animals before they have a chance to germinate. Sodding a lawn is a major investment, costing as much as $1 per two-foot square. Depending on the size of your lawn, this can be a costly job even before adding the cost of additional supplies, such as soil, fertilizer and tilling equipment. Many homeowners who install sod want to ensure their investment lasts.

adapted to your climate, and they can be provide just as much aesthetic appeal as more exotic alternatives. l Avoid pesticides whenever possible. Many homeowners treat their lawns with pesticides, which can make a lawn look beautiful. But that beauty typically comes at a steep price, impacting local wildlife and perhaps even the local water
supply. When pesticides are applied to a lawn, the chemicals within may run off into your local water supply. If you can’t avoid pesticides entirely, then do your best to minimize how often you use them. l Don’t let rain water go to waste. Rain barrels are a great way to make good use of rain. Rain barrels can be placed beneath a gutter’s down-
spout, where they will collect water that can be reused throughout your property to water the lawn and garden. Rain barrels can be relatively expensive, but over time they will pay for themselves as you save money on your water bill. Lawn care can be conducted in a way that benefits the environment as well as your bottom line.

Drive Smart BC Right Turns Over Cycle Lanes
2X14
It seems appropriate to write an article on cycling as we are in the middle of May 27 to 31, 2013 which is Bike to Work Week. A topic in the DriveSmartBC Forum this week highlights a dangerous situation that is well worth discussing, vehicles making right turns across cycle lanes. Drivers may not understand the duties required of them by the lines painted on the roadway.
TYEE CHEV
In the situation described in the forum, the bicycle lane is marked with a single solid white line right up to the intersection. This requires drivers to approach the intersection for a right turn remaining to the left of the bicycle lane at all times. The turn is initiated after entering the intersection and making sure that no cyclists are affected. Beware! Cyclists in the bicycle lane have lawful authority to pass by on the right of an overtaken or waiting vehicle because there is a clear lane on the right of the vehicle for the cyclist to use. The use of mirrors and shoulder checks by the motorist cannot be emphasized enough in this situation! Where there is a broken line marking the cycle lane at the approach to the intersection the driver may move over to the curb into the cycle lane prior to making the right turn in the way that most people are used to. Drivers doing so are making a lane change and must yield to cycle traffic in the bicycle lane before moving over! In this situation, the cyclist must wait behind the vehicle until after the turn is made to clear the cycle lane.

Keeping an eye on the whales of the west coast H ave a whale of a time on Thursday, June 20 when the Discovery Passage Aquarium and the Sierra Club of Quadra Island will be hosting an event led by Caitlin Birdsall, Coordinator of the BC Cetaceans Sighting Network. A total of 23 species of whales, dolphins and porpoises can be found in our waters, six of which are endangered or threatened. Information about their movements and activities can help scientists to inform conservation and recovery decisions. “With such a large coastline, collecting
information can be very expensive and challenging,” says Birdsall. “Observations made by the public can be so important to add to our knowledge. The BC Cetacean Sighting Network allows the public to participate by reporting their sightings online or by calling 1-866-I-SAW-ONE.” Deb Cowper, Aquarium Manager, says, “Education is a primary goal of the Discovery Passage Aquarium and we are very happy to host this opportunity to share information about these amazing creatures.

Public observers may include ferry personnel, recreational and charter boaters, and coastal residents. “Information from remote locations is particularly interesting as we may have little or no data from these isolated places; we know Campbell River and area residents love to be on the water and we would be very appreciative to learn of their observations,” says Birdsall.

The Discovery Passage Aquarium is holding its first educational event since opening its doors June 8, a look at what’s happening with whales on the west coast.
The event will start at 6 p.m. when the aquarium will open for those attending the talk. The one to one and a half hour presentation will start at 7 p.m. in the Thulin Room of the Maritime Heritage Centre. The interactive presentation includes video clips, whale vocalizations, and take-home

One last big run. At age 55, Shelagh Germyn figures she has the energy and the stamina for one more ultra marathon: To run 160 kilometres (100 miles) from Campbell River to Nanaimo in a fundraiser to support women and children. “I just have to go-girl. It’s my last big goal,” she says. This year marks Germyn’s 10th anniversary of running and fundraising in Campbell River for Women For Women. Over that decade, she and her supporters raised almost $30,000 for bursaries which support single mothers going back to school at North Island College.
This year will be different. On Saturday, Sept. 7, Germyn will be running for the Campbell River Perinatal Society and the Campbell River Women’s Centre. “The support is needed,” says Marine McLachlan, volunteer co-ordinator at the women’s centre. The small centre on Ironwood Road opens its doors 20 hours a week and hosts 500600 drop-in visitors a month. It provides support services for women, along with clothing and hygiene supplies. McLachlan says they used to provide diapers and formula to single moms, but no longer can due to a lack of money. “We couldn’t keep up with the demand,” she
says. The perinatal society is also fundraising to build New Dawn House, a maternity home to, “provide a safe environment where a mother and baby can grow and learn together.” Dawn Pomponio is spearheading the fundraising effort to open New Dawn House and explains it will provide a secure and nurturing environment for women who need a safe home and have no where else to go. The moms, along with their babes, will be able to stay anywhere from a year to two years while they learn parenting, social and work skills. A house mother/mentor will also live on site. Pomponio says it’s great Germyn is running in support of the mater-
nity home, but the yoga fan doesn’t share her long-time friend’s passion for long-distance running. “I think she’s nuts!” says Pomponio laughing. Germyn has done plenty of ultra-marathons in the past and figures the run to Nanaimo will take 25-30 hours. She’s also hoping some fellow runners will join in to support her. “I need some help to get through the first 50 miles!” says Germyn. She’s also looking for sponsors and supporters. Call Germyn at 250-203-2845 and look for pledge sheets at Associated Tire, Vancouver Island Insurance Centres, Save On Foods, Ocean Mountain Yoga and the Campbell River Women’s Centre.

North Island students can gain work experience Students in Vancouver Island North will gain valuable work experience this summer, as a result of the Government of Canada’s Canada Summer Jobs initiative. John Duncan, Member of Parliament for Vancouver Island North, made the announcement today on behalf of the Honourable Diane Finley, Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development. “Creating summer jobs for students benefits not only youth and employers, but also local economies across the country,” said Duncan. “Canada Summer Jobs is yet another excellent example of how our government is creating jobs and economic growth.” This year on the North Island, approximately 74 agreements will be signed with employers and 92 student summer jobs will be created. The Vancouver Island North constituency will receive nearly $400,000 in Canada Summer Jobs funding. Canada Summer Jobs is an important part of the Government of Canada’s Youth Employment Strategy (YES), which also includes the Skills Link and Career Focus programs. With an annual budget of more than $300 million, YES helps youth obtain career information, develop employment skills, find jobs and stay employed. Economic Action Plan (EAP) 2013 proposes an additional investment of $70 million over three years in YES to support 5,000 more paid internships. This is further to the extra $50 million that was invested through EAP 2012 to enhance YES with a new initiative that connects young Canadians with jobs.

MAE WINNIFRED STEWART MAY 5, 1925 – JUNE 6, 2013
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our Mom, Grandma, and Great-Grandma. Mae was born in Comox, B.C. on May 5, 1925 to Matilda and Herb Muschamp. She was predeceased by her husband, Desmond Joseph Stewart. She is survived by her four children, Monty, Clifford (Paulette), Leona, and Graham (Jan); her grandchildren, Sean, Gary, Cameron, Leanne and Heather; great-grandson, Dexter. Mae spent her early years growing up in Union Bay. She moved to Victoria in her early twenties to work. She came back to Union Bay and married the love of her life. They were married for 60 years. They started a family in Union Bay, then moved into Gold River in 1961. Then later moved to Campbell River. The last couple of years for Mae have been at Cumberland Lodge. Mae was a kind and caring person. She was known for always having her door open for everyone. She would always have baking on the counter and could whip up a batch of scones in a flash. She was loved by all who knew her and influenced many. She had a strong personality, knew her mind, and was very much involved with her community in many capacities. She will be missed very much by her family and friends. The Family would like to thank all the wonderful and caring staff and Dr Helmer at Cumberland Lodge who have taken such good care of our Mom. A celebration of Life will be announced at a later date.

Many thanks also go out to the beautiful 3rd Floor nursing staff at St. Joseph’s Hospital, the amazing staff at the Cancer clinic as well as Dr. Ingrey , Dr. Kopt & Dr. Camacho for their amazing compassion and care.

Failure to compromise â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;an example of the worst politicsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t accept the July 6 date. It was a little disappointing to see that without consulting us.â&#x20AC;? Delorme said Klahoose staff are unavailable on July 6 and would not be able to make the meeting. He also noted that typically public hearings are held in the location of the proposed re-zoning.. To move the public hearing out of the affected area would be going against precedent, said Delorme who added that the meeting should be held in the area that will be most affected by the proposal. The marine resort is expected to be located in front of Tork Reserve in Squirrel Cove and is expected to include 69 berths and 46 single point moorings along with a fuel dock, waste pump-out facility, power and water provision, a laundry and float plane and water taxi docks covering an area of 16 hectares. More importantly, it will be an economic driver for the Klahoose. Delorme asked the board Wednesday to reconsider its prior decision and hold the public hearing at the Klahoose multi-purpose centre. Delorme assured the board that the Klahoose have â&#x20AC;&#x153;no intentions to make anyone feel perverse or uncomfortable
Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
A stalemate between Strathcona Regional District directors at Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board meeting over where to hold a public hearing took nearly one-and-a-half hours to break. The difference of opinion between the four rural area directors (the only directors who had a vote on the issue) came down to precedent versus intimidation with directors split between the two camps. Klahoose First Nation Chief James Delorme was disappointed the board didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t consult with the Klahoose before deciding on a July 6 public hearing date for the re-zoning of property in Squirrel Cove on Cortes Island to accommodate a proposed marina development. Delorme had requested the regional district hold the meeting in June at the Klahoose multi-purpose centre in Squirrel Cove â&#x20AC;&#x201C; traditional Klahoose territory. The board instead voted May 23, for the July 6 public hearing date and picked a neutral location on Cortes Island â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mansonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Landing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in response to letters from some members of public who said they would be uncomfortable speaking against the proposal while on the applicantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grounds. Delorme said Wednesday he was disappointed in that decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very happy and very proud of our relationship with the regional district,â&#x20AC;? Delorme began. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We came to the regional district in good faith. We were supposed to have a public hearing in June in Squirrel Cove â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that
could find a compromise,â&#x20AC;? Kerr said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is really an example of the worst politics, to see this process. I would like to see you work out a compromise rather than banging heads, please.â&#x20AC;? The four directors left the table for a 10 minute recess. When they returned, Whalley put a proposal on the table to hold one public hearing on July 24 at 1:30 p.m. at the Gorge Hall. Abram reluctantly relaxed his stance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like it (but) itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely a compromise (as opposed to the July 6 date which the Klahoose canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make) and Gerald (Whalley) is definitely against any other proposal,â&#x20AC;? Abram said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know Klahoose want it on Klahoose land. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at such an impasse on this, I cannot in good conscience allow us to walk away from this table and watch this go down in flames. So letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s do it on July 24 at the Gorge and hope and pray and beg and plead the Klahoose to join us on that date.â&#x20AC;? The b o ard vote d in favour of holding the public hearing on Wednesday, July 24 at the Gorge Hall.

director Noba Anderson and Quadra Island director Jim Abram were equally adamant in their stance for holding the public hearing in the Klahoose community. Anderson, who was not at the last board meeting when directors voted to hold the public hearing at Mansonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hall, said the board made a â&#x20AC;&#x153;misstepâ&#x20AC;? and tried to rescind that motion at Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting. However, that was subsequently defeated by directors in a 2-2 vote. Director and Campbell River councillor Ron Kerr tried to come up with a solution and proposed holding two public hearings on the same day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; July 24 (to try and accommodate Klahoose) with a morning meeting at Klahoose and an afternoon meeting at Gorge Hall, a neutral location to replace the alreadybooked Mansonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hall. But that motion was also defeated and Kerr begged the directors to come up with a solution. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like to say to the four electoral directors, out of respect to the Klahoose First Nation and this board, I would really appreciate if you

A new apartment building was approved by council Tuesday night. Council endorsed, without any hesitation, a proposed 4-unit rental apartment complex at 680 2nd Avenue. The site is hidden away from the street, and tucked in behind residential homes along McPhedran Road to the west and behind the Dogwood Street commercial plaza to the east. The apartment building would be located behind Fusilli Grill and neighbouring businesses. The building itself would not be built along the road but the complex would be accessed via a strip of land that stretches from 2nd Avenue into the apartment complex and which would be used as
a driveway and a walkway. “The applicant has revised the scheme to show a clearlydelineated pedestrian walkway connecting the sidewalk to the closest part of the main building, which then links to the front door,” said Chris Osborne, the city’s planner. “This same walkway would be used to access an ancillary storage locker building and garbage/ recycling enclosure.” Osborne noted the building would be surrounded by a large expanse of parking, but the applicant, Ben Kunz, on behalf of Tri Shur Holdings Ltd., has made considerable efforts to break up the parking areas with pods of landscaping. Coun. Ron Kerr was happy to see Kunz get involved in another project in Campbell River. “It’s good to see Ben doing
another project,” Kerr said. “He’s done some of the best projects in Campbell River that I’m familiar with.” Kerr was also impressed that Kunz took on a project on a difficult piece of land. “The project is land-locked – I applaud you for taking a property like that and doing a project,” Kerr added. While the apartment building itself will not be readily visible from the street, the entranceway on 2nd Avenue will be. Osborne said the applicant is proposing to landscape that area with Japanese maples, and to line both sides of the driveway/sidewalk with mountain ash trees. “The overall effect of landscaping in the wide panhandle would be to create a sense of entry and effectively screen parking and buildings,” Osborne said.
