A grocery store employee escaped injury, after trying to apprehend three shoplifters at the Wholesale Club in Williams Lake. At approximately 6 p.m. June 18, the Williams Lake RCMP were called to the Wholesale Club. A store employee attempted to apprehend three females for shoplifting. Upon apprehending one female, she attempted to escape by attacking the employee with a knife, report police. The employee was not harmed but all three females escaped.

Roy Mulvahill, who was among wagon masters taking seniors on wagon rides around the city from the Seniors’ Village on Monday will be joining the fifth annual Xeni Gwet’in Youth Wagon Trip from Nemiah Valley to the 87th annual Williams Lake Stampede this week. The wagon trip with youth outriders leaves Nemiah on Friday and will arrive in Williams Lake for the start of Stampede on Friday, June 28. Pictured are Marg Hansen (left), Lillian Hains, Alice Marchuk, Roy Mulvahill, Art Jackson, and Pat Moortele.
Nemiah youth ride to Stampede starts Friday The Fifth Annual Xeni Gwet’in Youth Wagon Trip from Nemiah Valley to the Stampede in Williams Lake will be on the road this Friday. The organizers would like to remind people travelling Highway 20 and backroads between Nemiah and Williams Lake to be aware that the riders will be on the road and to take care while passing them. “We would like to extend our gratitude each year for the logging trucks who take time to slow down and pass our group safely as we travel the back roads from Big Creek logging roads up past Farwell Canyon and onto Highway 20 at the Toosey Road/ Highway 20 junction,” says event spokesperson Gailene William. The ride runs June 21 to 28 with the following dates. Day 1: Depart from Nemiah Valley and camp at Seymour Draw. Day 2: Seymour Draw to Ve-
dan Ranch. Day 3: Vedan Ranch to Big Creek. Day 4: One Day rest at Big Creek. Day 5: Big Creek to Sugar Cane Jacks. Day 6: Sugar Cane Jacks to Farwell Canyon. Day 7: Farwell Canyon to Meldrum Creek. Day 8: Meldrum Creek to Williams Lake Stampede Grounds. The horse and wagon teams will include Roy and Gwen Mulvahill, Wilfred and Betty Anderson, Al Peteman and Jason and Lynn. Trail cooks are Seraphine William and Kim Gillespie. The cook applicants submit a budget to cook for a maximum number of 80 people and have a portable kitchen that they bring to each camping and lunch spot. They cook all three meals and provide snacks for road and trails. Randy Saugstad is hauling
the horses back to Nemiah after Stampede. Youth group workers Jimmy and June Lulua started the youth ride five years ago with the help of grants, donations and fundraising and it has grown every year since then. This year the Lulua’s are handing the reins to 2013 Wagon Trip President Annie S. William so that they can concentrate on their education goals for the next few years. Fundraising mainly consists of donations and community events such as loonie and toonie auctions and supper sales . This year youth from outside the Xeni Gwet’in First Nations community were also welcome to participate for a daily fee. Last year Roy and Gwen Mulvahill donated a horse to be raffled off at the Williams Lake Stampede to raise money for the wagon trip. Sonny Lulua won the horse
named Dolly. This year Roy and Gwen Mulvahill have donated another eight-year-old mare to be raffled off for first place. Second place is an all expense paid three-day wagon ride between June 21 - 28 this year. Third prize is a shoe farrier treatment for one horse by Jimmy Lulua. Tickets are $2 each or $3 for $5. Participants can also buy jackets to celebrate their participation. This year the organizers are also asking for someone to document the ride in a video. By the end of April the donations of food and loonie/toonie auction items totalled more than $2,000. The Xeni Gwet’in Youth Wagon Trip has a Facebook page for anyone wanting to join the group Xeni Gwet’in Wagon Trip. The 87th annual Williams Lake Stampede runs June 28, 29, 30 and July 1.

Acting mayor Ivan Bonnell said the airport rate increases approved in January have yet to be realized. Goodall agreed saying there will be a shortfall in 2013, but that should not be the case in the future.

Public encouraged to view three property proposals Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer While summer may be fast approaching, things are not slowing down at city hall. At Tuesday’s regular meeting three property files were on the agenda and acting mayor Ivan Bonnell said he hopes the public will weigh in on them. The first hovers around a development variance permit from Westridge Ventures Ltd. for an empty parcel of land located at 199 Eagle Crescent. Proponents are asking that the Single Family Residential (R-) Zone Front Lot Line Setback for principal buildings be reduced from 5.5 metres to two metres, while there’s a minor request for garage or accessory building setbacks to be reduced from 5.5 metres to 5.15 meters. Under Single Family Residential 2 (R-1) Zone Front Lot Line Setback, the proponent is asking for it to be reduced from 6.1 metres to two metres for the principal building. City planning tech-
nician Chris Hutton reported there could be up to 34 lots developed on the parcel, if approved. The applicant is requesting the reductions to accommodate the city’s slope requirements and still provide yard space, Hutton said. “The applicant also indicates that this setback will provide a great buffer and privacy from neighbouring parcels backing onto these homes.” A similar application was made in 2011 to address issues relating to slope on Foster Way. That application was eventually successful, but not before a number of issues were worked out to ensure good neighbourhood design and streetscaping. Staff will be alerting surrounding property owners and tenants within a 100-metre radius of the subject property and any comments or recommendations will be brought back to council for further consideration at the July 2 regular meeting. “We recognize the
WLIB holding drop-in The Williams Lake Indian Band and City of Williams Lake are holding a drop-in session for interested public to view and ask questions about the Williams Lake Community Forest application and business plan. Chief Ann Louie of the Williams Lake Indian Band said; “We appreciated receiving input from all those who attended the Open House on April 22 at the 150 Mile Volunteer Fire Hall. “Since the Open House, the band and city reviewed all the
input and updated and amended our application package.” “We hope those who are interested in the community forest will stop by,” said acting Williams Lake Mayor Sue Zacharias. “City representatives will be in attendance to explain the revised application and answer questions.” The drop-in session will be held on June 24 from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Soccer clubhouse in Dave Means Park, just off Hodgson Road. Everyone is welcome to attend the session.

Owners of the property at 1148 Broadway Ave. South and the lot directly behind it have asked the city to make zoning amendments so they can develop a new electronics store. dates are quick here, but people need to be aware of that it will all unfold over the next 30 days,” Bonnell said. A development permit, official community plan and zoning amendment have been requested for a proposed new electronics business offering retail and installation and repair of home and car equipment and appliances to be located in the 1100 block of Broadway Avenue South. Blanleil Cranbrook Holdings Ltd. of Kelowna and Victor
and Lyda Sharman of 150 Mile House are asking the city to allow them to use 1148 Broadway Ave. South and the property behind it at 1137 Lakeview Crescent to develop the electronics business and an accessory residential use above. They are also requesting that the property at 1148 Broadway Ave. South be changed from Commercial Highway to Mixed-Use and the lot at 1137 Lakeview Crescent be changed from Single Family Residential to service commercial.
Both of those changes would also require approval from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. A public consultation meeting about the project will be held Monday June 26 at 7 p.m. in the Rick Hansen Boardroom of city hall. Again staff will notify all property owners and tenants within a 100 metre radius. The third and final property request centres on a one-acre property located at 907 Proctor Street, east of Highway 97. Shirley Cameron
requested that the official community plan and zoning bylaw be changed from MixedUse to Residential Single Family and rezoned from service commercial zone to single family residential zone. In her application Cameron noted the property has always been used as residential and that she wanted it to be legally designated as such. Originally staff had recommended council reject the request, but council voted against the recommendation and passed a motion
that Cameron’s request be considered. “This property was brought into the city a number of years ago and for years has been sitting vacant,” Coun. Surinderpal Rathor said. “I think the time has come for the council and community to move forward and get the area developed.” Bonnell recalled that when all of the outlying areas were brought into the city limits the properties were blended in with the official community plan of the day. “It was determined that this property should be zoned as mixed use and our recent official community plan process in 2010 reaffirmed that, but the timeline has been 30 years and there’s been no change on this property,” Bonnell said, adding if there was a demand for it commercially it would have happened within that timeframe. Coun. Danica Hughes excused herself from the discussion about 907 Proctor St., declaring a conflict of interest. Her family owns property nearby.

Liberals talk restraint but fall flat on the walk
Congrats to the class of 2013
I
t’s hard to believe it’s the middle of June and that graduation season is already
I
t takes a certain political chutzpah to pick the pockets of B.C. seniors at the same time as you’re handing out political payoffs to your pals, but that’s exactly what the B.C. Liberal government did this month when it imposed a $25 monthly wheelchair maintenance fee on seniors in public extended-care facilities while awarding pay increases of as much as 36 per cent for its political staff at the legislature. Those pay raises — approved by the outgoing cabinet in one of its last political acts — are far in excess of what most British Columbians will see on their paycheques this year and in some cases have staff earning more than the base salary of an MLA and more than the premier herself. Michele Cadario, who was named deputy chief of staff to the premier, will see her salary jump by almost 36 per cent to $195,148, an increase of $50,000. Cadario now has the dubious distinction of earning more than the chief of staff to President Barack Obama and $25,000 more than her counterparts in Ontario, a province three times the size of B.C. Looked at it another way: a British Columbian earning the minimum wage of $10.25 an hour would have to work 94 hours a week just to gross the increase in salary that Cadario will take home. In a vain attempt to try and justify the unjustifiable, a spokesperson for the premier’s office claimed that despite the raises the total budget for political staff would fall by $30,000 from $5.741 million to $5.711 million. But those are budget forecasts, not end-of-the-year actuals and newly elected governments are often prone to “staff creep” when ministers realize they need far more staff than they were originally assigned. Even more worrisome though was the fact that the government was entirely tone deaf to the bigger message that these raises sent. When you campaign on restraint, you lead by example.

A victory for tolerance It’s good news that saner heads prevailed and the Quebec Soccer Federation reversed its earlier decision to ban Sikh religious headwear from the pitch. The province’s soccer czars said players wearing patkas, keskis and turbans during practices and games presented a safety hazard to themselves and other players. Canadians who value our standing in the world as a country welcoming to everyone denounced the decision as racism. That it would come from a province that has fought long and hard to preserve its own cultural identity made it especially galling. The Canadian Soccer Association said the safety concerns were balderdash. Turbans are soft. Sikh children around the world play soccer and their headwear has never before been a safety issue. Even FIFA, the sport’s global governing organization that likes to micromanage every aspect of the game to ensure its integrity and accessibility to ev-

eryone is mute on the matter. Soccer players aren’t allowed to wear jewelry, but there are no rules regarding religious headwear. In a post-9/11 world where fear and paranoia drive so many expressions of intolerance, religious headwear has become an easy target. A religious medallion can be discreetly tucked into a shirt or behind a blazer. A ring or other jewelry is small, often only noticed close up. But a head covered in a turban, scarf or burka stands out in a crowd. Countries like France, Egypt and Turkey have banned the wearing of burkas in public for a variety of reasons, from concerns about security to the idea that they repress women. But really it’s about fear. The Quebec Soccer Federation’s turban ban was a step down that road. Its reversal is a victory for tolerance. - Black Press

here. For this year’s graduates of Williams Lake secondary, Columneetza secondary, and the other schools throughout the Cariboo, it has been a long journey. The K-12 years are the period of life when we grow the most, not just physically but also emotionally. It is only towards the end of this period that we begin to discover who we really are, as we gain the skills MLA that will Musings serve us for the Donna Barnett rest of our lives. To the class of 2013, congratulations. Graduation is the end of one journey, but a new one is waiting just around the corner. Having met many of you and the teachers who have prepared you for this moment, I’m confident you’ll do well. Wherever your next journey takes you, I wish you the best. I’d also like to thank the Williams Lake Dry Grad Committee, who work hard every year to make sure that our grads enjoy a fantastic celebration while ensuring that they stay safe. It takes a lot of time and effort to set up dry grad events, and the months of hard work you put in are greatly appreciated. Summer is not just graduation season, but also road work season, and road crews are hard at work maintaining and upgrading our roads. While these workers are out there to ensure that we all benefit from safer, better roads, let’s keep their safety in mind as well. Remember to slow down and drive safely around work sites, and to obey signs and directions from traffic controllers. Speaking of road work, next Wednesday the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure and the City of Williams Lake are inviting everyone to attend a Project Development Open House for the Cariboo Connector Program at City Hall from 4 to 8 p.m. The meeting will focus on plans for the four-laning of Highway 97 between Carson Drive and Fox Mountain Road. It is a great chance to learn more, have your questions answered, and provide input on this project. Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

Plaque to recognize generosity would be appreciated Editor: The McLeese Lake Community Hall and area have really been enhanced by the many improvements that have taken place. Over the years I have seen many “thank yous” in the Williams Lake Tribune to a number of people for their time and work spent at the community hall and area. I very much agree with a “thank you” and “appreciation” when it is due.
However, over many years I have yet to see any mention of Mrs. Robertson, Don Robertson or my late husband, Billy, who very kindly donated this beautiful, valuable piece of lake shore property to the McLeese Lake Community for everyone to use and enjoy. They also very graciously donated a beef — money received would help to purchase the tables and chairs. Don and Billy spent many hours with their large machinery clearing and preparing the
area for the building of the community hall. I am very disappointed that a plaque has not been displayed in the community hall to show appreciation and recognition for their great generosity. I sincerely look forward in having a plaque that can be displayed in the community hall in the near future. Bonnie Robertson Forglen Ranch, McLeese Lake
Celebrate National Paddling Week Editor: Here you will find a short, fun poem to promote National Paddling Week, June 15-23. National Paddling Week is a celebration of Canada’s paddling heritage. It is an opportunity to provide awareness and education for safety and skill improvement on the water, and a chance for novices and experts alike to make beginning and connections in their local paddling community. Many associations, clubs and operators are putting on special events and offering free safety courses. B.C. is a coastal province with lots of lakes and rivers throughout. Paddling makes up a large part of our outdoor activities. Learning how to do these sports skillfully and safely make them so

much more fun and enjoyable, and avoids preventable tragedy. For more information visit our website at www.nationalpaddlingweek.ca. Mike Gilbert Director for B.C. Paddle Canada National Paddling Week By Sophie Kaufmanis I am writing to share A clarion call to your readers out there: Calling all mothers and fathers and sons, Daughters and lawyers and especially nuns, Get your paddles at the ready and your wet suits looking chic, For it’s soon to be National Paddle Week! The next time the blue sky lights
up a day Or the clouds, with their rain, weep the morning away You can be there to watch it all from your canoe, Your kayak, or even your standup paddleboard too! It’s your bonding time with nature, an activity with your kids, A time for profound life reflection, overwhelming bliss, And in a lake or ocean you can watch your bad days Dissolving like raindrops in your paddleboard’s wake But don’t forget your whistle too when you head out to sea And always make sure to securely fasten up your PFD. Those are only two examples of safety at its best — But join a paddle club in town and you can learn the rest! Happy National Paddling Week!

Lakecity dynasty rolls through Revy The Williams Lake Lightning won an unprecedented fifth consecutive title at the 22nd annual Big Bear Classic Soccer Tournament in Revelstoke on the weekend. Not to be outdone, a Williams Lake ladies team, along with a few pickups from Kamloops — We Kam and We Will — captured its first ever championship at the tournament. On the men’s side tournament organizers described this year’s 14-team field as the toughest and deepest they’d seen in the history of the event and the Lightning definitely had their work cut out for them. “Every year the tournament gets tougher to win and everybody badly wants to be the team that ends our streak,” said Lightning forward Ryan Glanville. “All four of our games this year were close but we always seem to find that big goal when we need it and our team defense always comes up huge.” The Lightning opened the tournament with a 2-2 draw against Vernon Saturday morning. After falling behind 1-0 Williams Lake answered back with two quick goals from Reimo Paivenen and Hee Young Chung to take a 2-1 lead at half time. Vernon would score late in the game to earn the 2-2 draw. In game two Williams Lake defeated Cranbrook 1-0 with Dale Latin scoring the winning goal earning the Lightning a spot in Sunday’s semifinal. In the finals Ryan found some space and laced a shot into the bottom corner about 20 minutes into the contest to put Williams Lake ahead 1-0, which proved to be the final score. The defensive line of Jason Burrows, Casey Cullen, Sean Glanville and Luke Mojer took care of the rest as they were at their stingy best recording their third consecutive clean sheet. Goalkeeper Mike Norris made a huge fingertip save early on in the final to help earn his third shutout in a row. Other members of the winning Lighting squad including Geoff Buchanan, Owen Parrot, JeanMarc Moncion and Craig Latin. The Big Bear tournament comes on the heels of another Lightning win in Penticton over the May long weekend. On the ladies side We Kam and We Will defeated the Okanagan Wolfpack of Kelowna in a penalty shootout to win the championship. We Kam and We Will opened its round robin against Vernon and cruised to an 8-0 win with goals from multiple players. Keepers Niki Siddall of Kelowna and

Williams Lake’s Ryan Glanville, middle, battles for the ball against a pair of Vernon defenders during the final of the Revelstoke Big Bear Classic Soccer tournament Sunday. Glanville scored the winning goal in a 1-0 victory for Williams Lake to capture their fifth consecutive title. Kamloops’ Alyse Fitzpatrick were awarded the shutout. In game two the ladies fell 2-1 to the Okanagan Wolfpack after giving up two goals in the second half — the winner coming late on a penalty kick. Chelann Davis scored the lone goal for We Kam and We Will. Next, after finishing second in its pool, the ladies faced off against Kamloops World Masters in the semifinal. Williams Lake, on the strength of a solid midfield performance from Katie McMahen, Ashley Callander, Jaimie Bourdon, Kelsey Callander, Lauren Pilszek and Kristin Tilbury, defeated Kamloops 4-0. Fiona Jamin of Nelson was also a force on the forward line. In the final Williams Lake once again met the Okanagan Wolfpack — the only team to put a blemish on its record at the tournament. “The game was one of few chances for either team and the majority of the play was in the midfield,” said We Kam and We Will defender Andrea Latin. When the Wolfpack did generate chances Andrea, Leah Watt, Marina Campsall, Christy Dejmek and Sidall kept the door closed as time wound down in regulation. The game went to a shootout with Williams Lake winning 5-4 on goals from Andrea, Ashley, Alyse, Christy and Haylie Shoults. Top goal scorers of the tourney for the ladies were Davis and Shoults.

Hundreds of participants will gather this Sunday, June 23 in Boitanio Park for this year’s KidSport Classic half marathon, relay and 10-kilometre walk and run. But, don’t let the name fool you, the event is not just for kids. Everyone is invited to take part to help raise money for the Williams Lake and District KidSport Chapter. KidSport chairperson Denise Skarra, secretary Deb Radolla, communications director Brian Stefan and treasurer Mike Franklin spoke to reporters Tuesday morning about the importance KidSport plays in the community in helping cover the costs of sports registration for kids who might not otherwise get the chance to play sports. In 2012 110 kids were assisted in registering for a sporting activity in Williams Lake. Of those, 79 were boys and 31 were girls and kids were given the chance to register with 11 different sports organizations in nine different sports. In total, the Wil-

year,” Franklin said. “That’s pretty consistent. There are a few kids that repeat but there are some we only see once.” “People see it as an alternative,” Stefan added. “Rather than having to say no to their children they can say yes.” KidSport applications are available on the City of Williams Lake website, the provincial KidSport website, the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex and at various schools throughout the district. The KidSport Classic begins Sunday at 8 a.m. in Boitanio Park and includes both individual, relay and team categories.

New soccer program trains Future Stars Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer
The team meets at Marie Sharpe elementary once a week for a its practice session. Riplinger said Future Stars is tiered for abilities so players can achieve success learning the fundamentals of the game. “As a house coach you’re trying to run a practice with kids of all different skill levels and it can be frustrating because some kids need more basics and some kids need some more challenges and if you’re a new coach that’s really difficult,” she said. “What we do here is divide by ability so each kid can get success at the station they’re at.” See COACHES Page A13

A new youth soccer program in Williams Lake is aiming to shape the future stars of tomorrow. Williams Lake soccer coach Nara Riplinger spearheaded the program, Future Stars, after attending a coaching clinic in Prince George last year. “I was up there for a coaching clinic and I was so impressed with the level of the coaches at this clinic and they were all saying ‘I’m a Future Stars U12 coach, or I’m a Future Stars U10 coach,’ and I had no idea what it was.” Future Stars is a totally inclusive soccer development program for kids created by
former Prince George Soccer Association technical director Joel MacDonald. MacDonald has since moved on to work for the Ontario Soccer Association but the program is still running strong in Prince George. “Basically he [MacDonald] had this brainchild of running a totally inclusive development program,” Riplinger said. “There’s no cuts. Everybody of every level is welcome. We have under-9 and under-10 boys and girls playing together and we have everybody from firstyear soccer players to sort of on their road to rep players, which is really neat.” In its inaugural season Future Stars has 58 players.

Each station has drill modifications as well as progressions so each coach can tailor their exercise to its specific group. In addition, Riplinger has enlisted the help of 15 volunteer community soccer coaches to help manage the players. “The thing I really like about it is we’ve made a coaching team and the coaches are all working together,” she said. “This is a great way for different coaches to work together and to pickup different styles.” The coaches also range in level from newcomer to experienced. “Right now everyone runs off my session plan but as the season goes we have some really experienced coaches that are going to be able to run their own sessions,” she said. “Most of these coaches coach one, if not
two, teams already and when I said ‘Do you want to be a part of this?’ they were all over it. To me that speaks volumes about the level of coaching and commitment we have.” Coaches include: Mike Franklin, Curt Levens, Rya Enns, Chris Nowotny, Colby Silver, Grant Gustafson, Lisa Kerley,

Sandy Fehr honourary Stampede Parade marshal Tara Sprickerhoff Tribune Staff Writer This year’s Daybreak Rotary Stampede Parade honourary marshal Sandy Fehr will be wearing something different than the traditional cowboy hat. The owner of Wiseowl Toys plans on keeping to the spirit of this year’s parade theme — Fun N’ Games — by wearing a pink princess hat with a long flowing veil out the back as she heads the parade. She was chosen to head the parade because her and her husband’s toy store is “the fun and games store in town,” she said. She’ll be running back and forth after the parade between her duties as parade marshal during the parade and at the Stampede later that day, as well as helping her staff run children’s activities at the street
Sandy Fehr is been declared the honourary Daybreak Rotary Stampede Parade Marshal. party. “I’m somewhat overwhelmed, but I’m totally honoured” she
said. Parade organizers want people to “take the theme, think about how it applies to each group and go with that,” said Erik Zwiers, one of five parade marshals organizing the parade this year. “Just play with it.” The parade this year will start at 10 a.m. with contestants assembling at 7 a.m. The parade route will be the same as last year, travelling down Fourth from Proctor Street, turning left on Borland until Boitanio Mall and then heading straight down Oliver until it turns right on First Avenue, ending on the corner of Proctor and First. Prizes will be given out in equine, float, band, youth, automotive and mascot categories, with $500 going to the best theme entry. New this year will be a $250
prize for the best dressed animal, excluding horses. “We wanted to try something different and see if people wanted to bring some of their pets along,” said Zwiers. “We are hoping that people can have some fun with it.” Right now there are only about 20 entries in the parade so far, but Zwiers said they’re just starting to “roll in” now. “We usually end up with 100 to 120 entries every year,” he said. Those interested in putting an entry into the parade can pick up registration forms at Papyrus Printing or at the WIlliams Lake Tourism Discovery Centre, as well as download them from the parade’s website: www.stampedeparade.com. Those who are interested in volunteering are asked to call Nancy Gail at the Child Development Centre.

and sounded just like Elvis and built his musical career as an Elvis tribute artist. He travelled the world with his show and had the longest one-man show in Las Vegas, other than Wayne Newton, before his voice gave out due to being overworked. He went on to become a social worker
in Vancouver, write his own story and work to inspire First Nations youth to be all they can be. Bates will be in concert at the Gibraltar Room, Saturday, June 29 starting at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at Margett’s Meats and Audio Video Unlimited.

Documentary screening at arts centre Friday The Cariboo Regional District Library will screen the National Film Board documentary We Were Children in the Gibraltar Room Friday, June 21 starting at 7 p.m. The evening will start with a selection of short videos created as part of the St. Joseph’s Mission Residential School Commemoration project, including Tiffany Boston’s What is Reconciliation and Sadie Johnson’s Survivors of Alkali Lake. Maisie Wright will be
speaking on behalf of the Indian Residential School Survivors Society, and Marilyn Charleyboy from Denisiqi Services Society will also speak. The feature documentary, We Were Children, directed by Tim Wolochatiuk, focuses on the impact of residential schools on its survivors. For more than 130 years until 1996, more than 100,000 of Canada’s First Nations children were required to attend one of 80 government
funded schools across the country run by various Christian faiths. There were 80 residential schools across the country. Most children were sent to faraway schools that separated them from their families and traditional land. Told through their own voices, We Were Children is the true story of two such children: Glen Anaquod and Lyna Hart. Due to the emotional nature of the documentary, parental discretion is strongly advised.

“They call the Cariboo home” Marie Carrier enjoys knitting for church bazaars Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer
THANK YOU
Marie Carrier has what most people would want if they were her age. At 93, her health is good and her mind and memories are still going strong. “Sometimes when things happen to your kids it makes you think way back,” Marie said. “When I first got married, oh man, it was such a beautiful day.” Her husband Alphonse was good and nice, she said. Touching her temple, she said “he’s in there.” “I will lose him for a moment, but then I think about him and all the things he did for me so that I wouldn’t work so hard.” She and Alphonse were married for 68 years until his death in 2008. For many years they were poor too, she added. “I had to have an operation when our kids were all small and my husband hired a girl to help in the house. There was no money. The wages were going up a little bit, but it took years.” Born in the French-Canadian village, Zenon Park, Sask., to parents Isaiah and Clara Chabot, Marie was the fifth of nine children. The family lived on a farm and the children worked hard. “We milked cows before we went to school. If kids had to do that today there would be no violence because they’d be too busy.” Life on the farm was good though. There was always lots of food and no chemicals like there are in some foods today, she insisted. Marie’s mom, however, had a hard life. The family home burnt down after the wood stove chimney caught on fire,

In her livingroom at Glen Arbor, Marie Carrier, 93, enjoys knitting items for the a church bazaar. and at 35 years of age, Clara was widowed when Isaiah was killed in a hunting accident. Marie and Alphonse grew up in the same town and were married on Nov. 6, 1939. They arrived in the Cariboo in 1953 with their four children — Jules, Dennis, Paulette and Laurier — and at that time began to learn how to speak English. “In Saskatchewan we were supposed to speak English, but we never did,” Marie whispered. “During recess I had some friends and we were supposed to talk English, but it was too hard.” There’s another “Frenchman” living in Glen Arbor who she met at the elevator. “We talk in French. He does speak English, but he came from Quebec and in here he never talked to anyone until he met me because he could speak French.”
Marie said she and Alphonse loved the Cariboo instantly. There was always work and the weather was good. “In those days they called Williams Lake a banana belt. It was warm all summer. We liked that,” she recalled. Winters were good too, she insisted. “We came from Northern Saskatchewan where it was 30 below all winter, 40 sometimes.” At first they lived at Enterprise, 37 km south of Williams Lake, because there was work for Alphonse there. Then they moved to 147 Mile and lived in a shack until Alphonse built a “nice little” house. They did not own a car and had to rely on friends to take them to town to buy groceries. “That was until we made enough money here to buy a
car,” Marie said, adding a car was a luxury. Their first new car was a Pontiac, and Marie remembered it well. “We bought it in Williams Lake at a time when there was hardly anything in the town. It was so marvellous to watch Williams Lake grow over the years.” On Sundays they’d go for a drive to watch small planes land near 11th Avenue when there was little airstrip there. In the beginning, Alphonse worked in various sawmills, and in between regular shifts, worked as a carpenter. As a Jack-of-all-trades he could do everything, Marie said. Eventually they moved into Williams Lake to the Green Acres trailer park and Alphonse was hired as a custodian at Marie Sharpe elementary school, where he stayed and worked for 21 years. Marie worked as a seamstress, sewing many graduation, wedding, and bridesmaids dresses. Several of her customers were teachers at Marie Sharpe. These days she still knits, often making items for the Catholic Women’s League bazaars at Sacred Heart Catholic Church. And she still drives, but not at night because she doesn’t like the lights. “I’m not ever worried because I’m a safe driver. I know the rules and follow them.” She has never been stopped by the “cops,” she said, adding she has been driving since 1956. “When my husband bought me a new car he told me I had to learn to drive.” Marie is planning to move into Seniors Village in the
Marie was born in rural Saskatchewan and moved to WIlliams Lake in 1953. near future, which she referred to as “the concept,” and said she doesn’t know if she’ll drive anymore, “Not because I can’t drive, but because I don’t want to anymore,” she shrugged. “I’m 93 so why should I drive? The kids said they’d come and get me.” Looking out her living room window at Glen Arbor during one of the recent June afternoon thundershowers, Marie admitted her only regret. “I wanted to become a meteorologist, but my mom could never have afforded to send me to school. In those days most of us only went to Grade 10,” she said. Smiling she explained how she has always loved to observe the weather and watch changes in the sky. “I just thank God for giving us so much to look at,” she smiled.
Williams Lake Seniors Village Residents, Staff and Management would like to THANK the Cariboo Driving and Draft Horse Club. Special thanks to the teamsters: Karen Sepkowski, Roy Mulvahill, Bud Weir and Merv Furlong.
