TERRACE - Sunshine was the order of the day June 23 as Heritage Park in Terrace joined up with the Association des francophones et francophiles du Nord-Ouest to celebrate St. Jean Baptiste Day. In addition to sack races, there was balloon art, face painting, music and food which, of course, included poutine.

Pipeline plan now up to review panel By Josh Massey

THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - The federal joint review hearings into the Enbridge Northern Gateway project wrapped up for good early June 24 but not before a few heated moments. Art Sterritt from Coastal First Nations accused the panel of allowing presenters who supported the project more leniency with the rules of conduct. And Enbridge representative Richard Neufeld spoke sharply against the opinions presented by the Alberta Federation of Labour (AFL) and MP Nathan Cullen who Neufeld said downplayed the importance of the projected 62,000 person years of temporary labour that would be created

during the pipeline construction phase. Neufeld also said that the AFL’s statement that only 300 permanent jobs would be created downplayed the benefit of the employment created during the construction phase. “It was surprising and, I suggest, a bit disappointing to hear a labour organization and a Member of Parliament speak in such terms in dismissing the importance of those jobs,” Neufeld said, adding that Enbridge has already received approximately 2,100 résumés. The review process spanned 18 months and saw 1,200 oral statements made by individuals, and the involvement of 215 intervenors representing individuals and groups.

over 50 hd channels

The panel now has until the end of 2013 to prepare its final report to present to the federal government who will then make the final decision whether to approve the project and on what conditions. It took five-and-a-half of the allotted 10 days to finish up in Terrace, with the concluding statements made in the early afternoon of June 24. Fifteen of the original 34 speakers (representing 40 groups) participated in the concluding segment that day. In what was called the bottom-up segment, presenters had a chance to respond to those who had come after them in the first round. Of the 15 who participated in the second segment, five were physically present in Terrace. These included Enbridge,

The fine print: this deal applies to new digital TV customers only.

Douglas Channel Watch, The Government of Canada, C.J. Peter Associates Engineering and environmental steward Josette Wier—the others all gave their responses through teleconferencing. Because the proposal calls for a twin pipeline, one to transport thinning agents collectively called condensate from tankers at Kitimat to Alberta where it would then be mixed with heavy oil, making it easier to transport through the second pipeline back to Kitimat for export through a marine terminal. The Northern Gateway pipeline would connect the Alberta oil sands at an outlet north of Edmonton to a proposed tanker terminal in Kitimat, a length of 1,170 kilometres.

Rupert police close in on second bong-selling shop By Martina Perry THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Shortly after seizing thousands of pipes, bongs and grinders from The Chad Smoke Shop, another Prince Rupert business has been warned it could face punishment for selling similar products. Krish, the manager of Prince Rupert’s Express News who asked his last name not be used, confirmed RCMP came into Express News in the Rupert Square Mall on June 17 to inform staff it is illegal to sell pipes and bongs in the country. “It’s unfortunate we can’t sell it, but we don’t want to break any laws or get into any kind of trouble,” Krish said. Shelving at Express News that was once filled with glass pipes and bongs now sit empty, with Krish saying he

is unaware if other products will ever fill up the shelves.. Under Section 462.2 of the Criminal Code of Canada, “everyone who knowingly imports into Canada, exports from Canada, manufactures, promotes or sells instruments of literature for illicit drug use is guilty of an offence”. “If we do sell them, like at [The Chad Smoke Shop] they could be seized, and we could face an offence. Right now, our franchiser has asked us to take them off the shelves,” he said. Krish said it’s another blow to the business. When Express News opened its doors a year ago it planned on selling lottery tickets, but were unable to. Krish said now that Express New isn’t allowed to sell these items, the store’s inventory has been narrowed. Krish and his family moved from Van-

couver, with his parents investing money to open the business. With the restrictions Prince Rupert’s Express News has come across, the family is fearful they will not get their investment back. “Every other store in Canada is getting to sell these items. It’s unfair that we can’t,” Krish said. No other Express News store in British Columbia is being warned about selling the smoking devices. “We’re a tobacco store that sold them for tobacco use only ... our intention was for the items to be used for tobacco,” Krish said. The warning comes after Prince Rupert RCMP executed a search warrant on The Chad Smoke Shop earlier this month after a six-month investigation into the business, which has now closed its doors. RCMP said Chad Wen-

tworth, the owner of four other smoke shops in B.C., could be facing criminal charges. Dana Larsen of Sensible BC, a group working toward decriminalizing possession of marijuana and stopping police from spending time or resources on possession cases, said he believes there are more pressing issues Prince Rupert RCMP could be investigating. “This kind of selective enforcement is really not where the RCMP should be focusing their resources. Policing costs are skyrocketing in B.C ... yet they were able to do a six-month investigation into this store selling bongs and pipes. I think the people of Prince Rupert would rather see their RCMP force spending that amount of investigative time and effort on going after real crimes,” he said.

Empty shelves at the Express News in the Rupert Square Mall in Prince Rupert represent evidence of another visit by members of the Prince Rupert RCMP to a store they consider to have been selling drug-use products. The store removed the items from its shelves.

companies are set to go ahead with any construction or even a decision on actually moving forward to build anything. “It will help us in our continuing engagement with First Nations, regulators, potential customers, potential pipeline companies,” he said. “We’re probably years away from a final investment decision.” He said so far the company is looking at sites both in Prince Ru-

pert and Kitimat. Investigative permits were received for both communities last year. Rolheiser also said that the site in Prince Rupert being explored is called Grassy Point. The B.C. government asked for expressions of interest on the Grassy Point land earlier this year and Imperial Oil responded to that. He didn’t say which land was being pursued in Kitimat.

The application for 30 million tonnes of LNG export a year compares to the other largest LNG proposal for the Kitimat area, LNG Canada, which is the Shell Canada-led project. They already have an export application in place, theirs for 24 million tonnes a year. Imperial Oil with ExxonMobil’s possible proposal joins a wealth of other possible projects on the north coast.

Kitimat LNG also has an export licence for 10 million tonnes a year. That’s a proposal from Apache Canada and Chevron Canada. Douglas Channel Energy, a co-op of various groups including the Haisla, also have a 20 year export licence. While preliminary work has been going on in the Kitimat area, final investment decisions on the proposals have not been made.

KITIMAT - Imperial Oil Canada and ExxonMobil Canada have filed with the National Energy Board an application for an export permit for a potential new liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility. The jointly-owned entity, named WCC LNG — which stands for West Coast Canada — is for a possible terminal either in Kitimat or Prince Rupert. “Basically what that is, is an application for permission to potentially export up to 30 million tonnes a year of liquefied natural gas for a period of 25 years,” said Imperial Oil spokesperson Pius Rolheiser. But he emphasized that filing for this permit does not mean the

Nisga’a museum curator excited about new position By Josh Massey

THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

LAKALZAP - Darrin Martens arrived in the Nass Valley on June 30 to start his new position as curator of the Nisga’a museum here. Marten’s credentials are extensive including an MA in Art History from UBC and experience as curator at the Burnaby Art Gallery and West Vancouver Museum. Here are answers to some questions. What are your first impressions? The people have been so incredible – so very warm, generous, and supportive of my role here at the museum. The collection itself is outstanding and I’m looking forward to learning more about it and ways in which to provide deeper engagement with these works not only for myself but for visitors and members of the Nisga’a nation. Are you planning any events/activities for this summer? Yes. We really want to develop quality engagements here at the museum that go be-

yond the traditional tour (which are excellent already). The staff and I are currently investigating potential programs at this time. One thing I can tell you is that we will be having an ongoing education program throughout the summer related to one of the works in the collection – a button blanket. Fran Johnson will be creating a replica of this important blanket (that dates back to the early 20th Century) to be used in our developing education collection. The original blanket is currently at the Canadian Conservation Institute (CCI) and will be returning to Nisga’a territory, we hope, later this year. Any plans to expand or change the exhibit? Yes. We have been brainstorming exhibit ideas for the past few days and trying to determine what to do and when. The spaces on the sides of the long-house definitely need to be developed. Given my start here and with opening day a few days away we won’t have anything “up” for June 17. The ancestors collection

JOSH MASSEY / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

New curator of the Nisga’a Museum Darrin Martens stands with museum manager Fran Johnson. will remain the same at the moment. What we would like to do is enhance the experience with some new text and develop a walking guide through the exhibition. What are one or

two of your favourite pieces? That is a very difficult question to answer. For me the objects that have a dynamic quality to them interest me at the moment – the

masks with mouths and eyes that open/close, the squirrel headdress, the eagle figure and the puppet. Because they could be animated provides me with an interest in how they were utilized

and what that would have looked like in ceremonies. Not only were the dancers animated but their regalia was also – that fascinates me. There are many artifacts on display that were repatriated from museums in both Ottawa and Victoria. Are there more artifacts currently being tracked down? Currently we are helping to tell a very small portion of the Nisga’a story. Over the next weeks and months I will be looking at what Nisga’a objects are in other collections and determining (with the guidance and assistance of the elders) if there are things that we should have back in the community. What does it mean for the communities to have had these artifacts returned? From what I have learned in my brief time here it means a great deal. The Nisga’a see these artifacts as symbolic of the return of elders. I understand and respect that. If we can repatriate

other elders home I believe that is a good thing for this community and for the museum community as well. What about the gift shop and the movie room—when will these be up and running? If you were to recommend a perfect trip to the Nass to visit the museum, what would that include? That is a tough one given my limited experience so far in the Nass Valley…what I’d have to say is that the museum is part of a matrix of wonders that the Nass has. From the lava beds to the memorial park to the artisans that exist within the four communities each is unique and special. The self-guided driving tour provides a great mix of outdoor environmental and cultural experiences. The museum experience that we currently provide (through a personal tour) is one which highlights the Nisga’a people, their culture, and creativity . I believe this is an important component to understanding this amazing place.

MP launches campaign to save three northwest rivers By Shaun Thomas THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Skeena – Bulkley Valley MP Nathan Cullen was in Prince Rupert on Tuesday to kick off a campaign in support of legislatively protecting the Nass, Skeena and Stikine rivers. Cullen introduced a Private Member’s Bill that would grant the three rivers protection under the Navigable Waters Act, which were among those removed from the Act as part of the omnibus budget bill introduced last year, and will spend the coming months building his case by collecting as many signatures as possible. “I’ll be going with petitions door-to-door across the northwest this summer, going to farmers’ markets and fish halls, going on the docks and on ferries talking to British Columbi-

ans and northwesterners. I’ll be asking them to send a message back to the Conservative Government that it is just absolutely not right and not fair to say our rivers are disposable and can be dumped in,” he said on June 25, noting his impression was rivers were removed from protection by the Conservative government to allow pipelines to be pushed through. “This isn’t a left or a right issue, this isn’t Conservative or NDP, this is about right and wrong. It is wrong to say that these rivers should be held up and sacrificed for any one industrial project to go through.” While the program begins with the three major rivers in the region, Cullen is also turning to his constituents to extend protection to other lakes and rivers in the riding. “I have launched an initiative

on the website that allows people to go in and add other bodies of water they want protected. I introduced one bill to protect these three major rivers and in the fall will take the suggestions of other rivers and lakes people think are important and introduce complimentary legislation to protect them,” he said. Cullen was joined at the announcement by North Coast MLA Jennifer Rice, who pledged to offer assistance on the provincial level. “I really support this initiative because our rivers are so important to us economically here in the northwest, particularly the Skeena and Nass rivers in the North Coast riding,” she said. “Fishing employs hundreds of people in the summer at fish plants, and our fishing industry is not dying despite what people are saying.”

Fires fought

Kitimat’s Legion calling out for new members By Cameron Orr The Northern connector

Cameron Orr / the NORTHERN CONNECTOR

Legion bar manager Deborah Veenboer, with a sign encouraging new members to the Legion.

SMITHERS - Fire crews responded to eight new wildfires earlier this week, all the result of lightning that moved through northern B.C. Five of the fires are in the Cassiar Fire Zone and three are in the Skeena Fire Zone. All eight fires are less than one hectare in size and did not threaten any communities or infrastructure. Two of the fires ignited near the Telegraph Creek airstrip. Air tankers and a helicopter were used to help control them until fire crews arrived onsite. Three initial attack crews, forest protection officers and helicopters responded. The Fire Danger Rating in the northern half of the Northwest Fire Centre has been “moderate” to “high” over the past week and people are urged to be cautious and watchful in the woods as the summer continues.

CELEBRATING CELEBRATING

KITIMAT - There’s as much new with the Kitimat branch (#250) of the Royal Canadian Legion as is old. Their building is a Pan-Abode structure, just barely visible from motorists passing by on Haisla Boulevard. It’s an old building in Kitimat, and an even older group. This Legion branch, 250, according to one of the Legion’s directors Bill Whitty, is Kitimat’s oldest club. The general public no doubts sees the group most visibly on Remembrance Day. Certainly it’s what the Legion stands for, in remembrance of people who have served in the armed forces and to serve those veterans. Yet what began as a group to connect veterans is no longer the exclusive domain it once was. The Legion, if it had one message it could share with the public, is they’d like you to join their ranks, and anyone may apply. To join their club you just have to be Canadian, and over 19. Even just stopping by to support their facility requires no connection. Simply sign your name in their ledger — a requirement for their liquor licence — and you’re all set. The local branch is looking to

grow with the times and renew its membership. In addition to having their bar open seven days a week, they hold events such as a karaoke night on the second and fourth Saturday of the month. A regular meat draw also seeks to draw in patrons. Bar manager Deborah Veenboer said she’s really pushing for more entertainment at their hall to help bring people in. Whitty says he hopes people will take advantage of joining the Legion as a member, and not just a user, for the benefits of supporting a local good cause. The Legion, he said, supports a number of community groups each year, from the Sea Cadets, to the Hospice Society, Relay for Life and the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) program, among many others, including minor sports. They can hand out up to $10,000 in a year to community groups. That’s one of the reasons keeping the group alive is so important. The number of actual veterans in Kitimat is shrinking — closing in on zero — but to see the Legion disappear would certainly hurt everyone who looks to the organization for support. That’s something to remember as all this week is Legion Week, June 24 to 28.

Group wows Victoria audience By Susan McLean

The Northern connector

VICTORIA - Overlooking Victoria’s picturesque Inner Harbour with the majestic Parliament Buildings and the ivy-clad Empress Hotel as a backdrop, almost 60 members of the Gitlaxdax Nisga’a Dancers performed to an enthusiastic and appreciative audience at the June 23 First Peoples Festival, celebrating National Aboriginal Day in the Capital. Originally formed by Keane Tait in 1996, the Terrace-based dance group meets twice a week to practice songs and dance steps. “We have all ages from babies to elders,” says member Brigitte Watts. “Everyone is welcome in our group but we sing the songs of the Nisga’a people.” Born in Prince Rupert, Watts

moved to Terrace and has been part of the Gitlaxdax Dancers for three years. “Being involved in the Nisga’a culture is about reclaiming our identity,” she said. “It keeps our culture strong and allows us to share it with others.” That commitment to share was gratifying for Ron Rice, organizer of Victoria’s largest National Aboriginal Day celebrations. When contacted several months ago by the dance group asking if members could perform at the annual event, Rice says he was honoured but concerned that travel costs to bring the Gitlaxdax Dancers to Victoria would be prohibitive. “When they told me they had been fundraising all year and were prepared to make the trip on their own to share their culture, I quickly said yes.” The group used 10 cars and

a bus to transport the 58 members, saving accommodation costs by sleeping on floors of native friendship centers along the route. “They brought diversity to the event in sharing the Nisga’a songs,” Rice said. “In particular, I loved the little boys singing so loud. It was heartwarming. Rick Crosby, chief executive officer for the Provincial Capital Commission which is a long-time major sponsor of National Aboriginal Day celebrations in Victoria, agreed. “The commission’s mandate is to connect and celebrate the Capital with all British Columbians, and having the Terrace group go to extraordinary lengths to fundraise and travel that distance made this special event even more outstanding,” said Crosby of the effort involved.

Prince Rupert LNG Project Public Comments Invited As part of the strengthened and modernized Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 (CEAA 2012) put in place to support the government's Responsible Resource Development Initiative, the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency commenced a federal environmental assessment for the proposed Prince Rupert LNG Project, located in British Columbia. The Agency invites the public to comment on which aspects of the environment may be affected by this project and what should be examined during the environmental assessment. The public can review and comment on the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Guidelines, a document that identifies the potential environmental effects to be taken into consideration and the information and analysis that needs to be included in the proponent’s EIS. Written comments must be submitted by July 21, 2013 to: Prince Rupert LNG Project Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency 410-701 West Georgia Street Vancouver, BC V7Y 1C6 Telephone: 604-666-2431 Fax: 604-666-6990 PrinceRupertLNG@ceaa-acee.gc.ca To view the draft EIS Guidelines or for more information, visit the Agency’s website at www.ceaa-acee.gc.ca (registry reference number 80042). All comments received will be considered public. Copies of the draft EIS Guidelines are also available for viewing at the following locations: Prince Rupert Port Authority 200 - 215 Cow Bay Rd. Prince Rupert BC

Prince Rupert Library 101 6th Avenue West Prince Rupert BC

Port Edward District Office 770 Pacific Avenue Port Edward BC

Consistent with the transparency and public engagement elements of CEAA 2012, this is the second of four opportunities for Canadians to comment on this project. Following this comment period, the Agency will finalize and issue the EIS Guidelines to the proponent. An application period for participant funding and a future public comment period related to the EIS will be announced at a later date. Projects subject to CEAA 2012 are assessed using a science-based approach. If the project is permitted to proceed to the next phase, it will continue to be subject to Canada’s strong environmental laws, rigorous enforcement and follow-up, and increased fines. The proposed project Prince Rupert LNG Limited proposes to develop a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility on Ridley Island at the Port of Prince Rupert in British Columbia. The proposed project includes the construction of a natural gas liquefaction plant and associated port and infrastructure facilities to export liquefied natural gas to international markets. The LNG facility would be developed in two phases, reaching a nominal capacity of up to 21 million tonnes per annum. photograph courtesy of the provincial capital commission

B.C. budget back for debate this summer The Northern connector

The government plans no new legislation in the summer session, or reintroduction of provisions for an election for B.C. senators and other bills that were left unpassed when the Legislature adjourned for the election. After a series of deficits since 2009, the February budget projected a surplus of $197 million for the fiscal year ending in March 2014. That is to be reached with an increase in the corporate income tax rate from 10 to 11 per cent, a temporary 2.1 per cent increase in personal income tax above $150,000 a year, and a $2 per carton increase in tobacco taxes effective in October.

VICTORIA - The B.C. legislature resumed with a brief throne speech on Wednesday and an updated budget Thursday that will be the focus of opposition critics in a month-long summer session. NDP house leader John Horgan said the government’s plan is to push a “bogus” budget through “while people are at the beach,” and then continue the B.C. Liberal tradition of skipping scheduled fall sessions in October and November.

German lucrative territory for northwest moly miners in securing Kitsault deals The Northern connector

TERRACE - Avanti has signed a deal to sell half of the production from its planned Kitsault molybdenum mine north of here. The deal with steelmaker ThyssenKrupp Metallurgical Products GMBH (TKMetPro) of Germany could be worth a potential (US) $2.7 billion over the projected 16-year life of the mine, the company said in a June 20 news release. Called an offtake agreement, the deal also paves the way for two German lenders to lend Avanti $300 million and have 95 per cent of that amount guaranteed by the German government, says Avanti president Craig Nelsen. “The unrelated party offtake agreement with TKMetPro ... will result in the importation and use of our product in Germany which is a benefit to the German government,” said Nelsen. “Based upon this import contract, we qualify

for a debt guarantee program supported by the government. This provides our lenders with assurance that their debt is protected. The offtake agreement also provides our lenders with assurance that the product will be sold.” Molybdenum is prized by steelmakers for its strengthening properties. Nelsen said the $300 million in German loans represents half of the $600 million debt Avanti wants to take on to finance its $1 billion project. It then expects to raise a portion of the remaining $400 million by selling a part interest in the mine to what Nelsen calls an Asian strategic partner. “Avanti will commit the proceeds of this sale to its share of equity. The partners will then have the obligation to each provide cash in the pro rata ownership for any remaining equity and Avanti would go to the capital markets to help raise that share,” he said.

This spring Avanti received provincial environmental approval for its project, provided it meets more than 30 conditions, and is now working on permitting with provincial officials. Federal approval is also required and Nelsen expects a final report to be released for public comment in mid-July. To date, Avanti has spent approximately $70 million advancing its project which, if all goes according to plan, could open as early as 2016 with upwards of 300 employees. The Kitsault area has already been the location for two earlier molybdenum mining operations with the second closing down because of market conditions shortly after it opened in the early 1980s. That closure resulted in the virtual abandonment of a purpose-built town at Kitsault. The township is now under private hands and is being marketed as a base for liquefied natural gas operations because of its proximity

to planned natural gas pipelines. Avanti, however, will be building a camp for its workers. Although the project has received approval from the province and the company is waiting for a federal response to its plans, the Nisga’a Lisims Government is opposing the project. Kitsault is not part of the core Nisga’a lands as outlined in a land claims treaty but the Nisga’a do have an influence through treaty provisions on development there. The Nisga’a say elements of the project put the surrounding environment at risk.

TERRACE - The number of people working in the northwest increased in May from April, says Statistics Canada in its latest employment release. There were 39,700 people working in May in the area from the north coast to just west of Vanderhoof, an increase of 500 from April’s figure of 39,200 people. The May increase comes close to the 39,500 people who were working in March.

NOTICE TO THE RESIDENTS OF NEW AIYANSH RE: PROPOSED ESTABLISHMENT OF RURAL AGENCY STORE The Liquor Distribution Branch invites community input on a request to establish a Rural Agency Store (RAS) at the New Aiyansh Gas Bar/ Convenience Store in the community of New Aiyansh. The intent of a RAS is to provide liquor service in rural communities and tourist destination resorts, in order to give people in these communities better, more convenient access to beverage alcohol products. RAS’s are established in rural communities where it is too small to operate a Government Liquor Store. RAS’s will be established, where there is a suitable business i.e. an existing independently-owned full service general grocery store. Only one Rural Agency Store authorization in a community is permitted. Written comments will be accepted until July 28, 2013. Your submissions may be used by the LDB in the decision process.

TERRACE - The Lakelse Dragon Boat Society held a successful paddling clinic June 8- 9. Twenty paddlers learned about the best way to paddle from coach Don Mulhall who flew up from Penticton. Classroom time was held at Parkside School with paddling practice in the afternoon at Waterlily Bay. Sunday saw five steerspersons learn how to steer the 40-foot dragon boat – and appreciate the skills of the team’s experienced steersman, Bob Marcellin.

Holkestads sweep Vic Marion Seniors open By Todd Hamilton

THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The party was on at the Holkestad’s on Sunday. Brian Holkestad defended his Vic Marion Senior Open title while his wife Rose captured her first senior women’s title on Sunday on the Centennial Course at the Prince Rupert Golf Club. Brian held off a late charge by Cu Phan to fire a 77 in the final round to post a 36-hole total of 151, one stroke better than Phan. The pair were deadlocked heading into the back nine on Sunday but Phan’s bogey and Holkestad’s par on the 425-yard, Par 4 10th put Holkestad in the lead, a lead he stubbornly defended until the 16th. Holkestad moved to three-up taking advantage of consistent pars on 13 and 14, but despite taking a bogey himself, Phan made it interesting when Holkestad double-bogeyed 16. “When I got to 18, I knew I was two-up but I pushed it right. I was thinking about going up over a tree, but I decided to play it smart. I laid up ... I figured even if I took a bogey there, I would still have him by one,” Brian Holkestad said. “I didn’t gamble ... I just played it safe.” Although Holkestad took his lumps for

TODD HAMILTON / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

Brian and Rose Holkestad celebrate their victories on the 18th hole. the poor drive and laid up hoping for bogey, there still was a tense moment for the fourtime champion. “I had a two-and-a-half-foot downhill

putt ... it was really slick,” he said. “But when it went in [Phan] knew it was over ... he had been keeping track.” Phan was unable to birdie the final hole giving Holkestad a one-stroke victory. Ravi Baidwan took third carding rounds of 81 and 87 for a 36-hole total of 158, seven strokes behind Holkestad. Ron Vandriel of Smithers, a 14-handicapper, captured the low net firing a 76 and an 81 for a net total of 129, six strokes clear of runner-up Roy Cage of Terrace. Dennis Oberreiter stormed back in the second round carding a 77 after an opening round 91 to win on a countback over Terry Sawka who posted rounds of 88 and 80 for the same two-day total of 168. Oberreiter’s birdie on 17 turned out to be the deciding factor to win the Low Gross title in the First Flight. Wade Johnson finished one stroke back at 169 after carding rounds of 86 and 83 but was good enough for the 16-handicapper to claim the Low Net title at 137. Larry Hope captured the Second Flight Low Gross with rounds of 90 and 91, one stroke better than Kitimat’s Paul Voykin who posted rounds of 92 and 90. Eric Hand was third finishing with rounds of 94 and 95. Jim McGregor of Smithers, a 29-handicap, signed off on rounds of 97 and 93 for a 36-hole net total of 132 to take the Second

Flight Low Net over Byron Gordon at 141 and David Mio, also of Smithers, at 147. Rose Holkestad completed the family sweep and captured her first Vic Marion Senior Women’s Open with a dominating performance on Sunday. Holkestad went into the final round tied with Janet Sheppard but, after a close front nine where Holkestad pulled ahead to a twostroke lead, the Prince Rupert golfer in her first seniors tournament hammered the competition on the back nine to win by eight strokes. “I was able to keep it together today,” Rose said. “Janet and I were neck-and-neck really until 16 when she got into a little trouble. After that, I just tried to keep it together.” Sheppard bounced back after that difficult 16 where she posted a 10 to still finish second with a 36-hole total of 186, eight back of Holkestad’s 178. Karin Williamson turned in rounds of 94 and 98 to capture third. Carol Bryant, a 37 handicap, fired rounds of her life to capture the Overall Low Net. Bryant signed off on rounds of 110 and 101 which worked out to net rounds of 73 and 64.

Field, be the kickstart they need to return to respectability? The Bombers are coming off a season where they missed the playoffs and had by far the worst point differential (minus 155) in the league. In Regina, though, the fans have Grey Cup fever, and it’s only July. So what else is new? Riders’ fans always think their team is going all the way, and this year, they hope they’ll get to see it unfold right before their eyes on Nov. 24. • Snipped from Ian Hamilton’s column in the Regina Leader-Post: “Several U.S. senators sent a letter to the Washington Redskins, asking them to change their name. “In a perfect world,” scribbled comedy writer Alex Kaseberg, “the Redskins write back: ‘You’re right, it is an awful and disgraceful name we should be horribly humiliated by and ashamed; it conjures up memories of a truly criminal history. From now on we are the District of Columbia Redskins.’ “ • AP golf writer Doug Ferguson on final day fashion at the U.S. open: “(Billy) Horschel wore pants with octopus prints, and he putted like he had eight arms.“ • Golf writer Dan Jenkins on Twitter, as reported on golfworldmonday.com: “Charl has made three bogeys and a double in his last four holes. In South Africa, that’s known as Schwartzeling your pants.” • Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “Tim Tebow signed with the

It will be cold and it will be festive and a lot of booze-filled fans will be feeling neither pain nor a chill on Nov. 24 when the two best teams collide in the Grey Cup Game on the Mosaic Stadium turf at Taylor Field, but the big question is: What colour uniforms will the players on the field be wearing? People from Carlyle to Lloydminster, from Hudson Bay to Cadillac will be hoping that at least one of the teams is wearing green, because that would mean their beloved Roughriders are in the annual Canadian Football League classic in their own back yard. That’s one of the story lines as the 2013 CFL season kicks off this week: The Grey Cup will be held in Regina for only the third time in the league’s 101year history and if the Green Riders are in the big game, they will have pulled an upset or two along the way. Riders’ fans, of course, always think every year is their year, but if the Western representative in the Grey Cup is not the B.C. Lions, then there will be many surprised fans in the other nine provinces. In a quarterbacks’ league, the Lions have, in Travis Lulay, the league’s best pivot. He was recently ranked as the second-best player in the league in a poll of football writers and broadcasters, and was joined by eight of his team-mates on that Top50 list. (No. 1 was Chad Owens of the defending Grey Cup champion Toronto Argonauts.) Only Montreal Alouettes, led by QB Anthony Calvillo, had more on that Top 50 list (10). A couple of other interesting story lines as the CFL season gets under way involve the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. One of the questions about the Bombers is this: Are they as bad as their pre-season record would indicate (246 and 52-0 losses)? And will their fancy new stadium, Investors Group

Patriots. ‘Belichick owed me a favor,’ explained Jesus.” • The Sports Curmudgeon: “Absent a situation whereby Tom Brady undergoes multiple amputation surgeries, there is no way Tebow is going to ‘compete for’ the starting QB role (with New England).” • Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle: “Pablo Sandoval is too short. His weight of about 270 would be fine if he were seven feet tall. So he needs to grow 13 inches or lose 50 pounds.” • Comedy writer Jim Barach: “Joe Torre’s daughter caught a baby that fell from a second-floor fire escape in Brooklyn. Major League Baseball will issue a statement congratulating her just as soon as she is tested for PEDs.” • R.J. Currie of sportsdeke.com: “Kobe Bryant of the Lakers isn’t sure he’ll be ready for the start of next season. He’s recovering from a ruptured Achilles tendon and a strained coaching relationship.” • Another one from Currie: “Hayley Wickenheiser says the University of Calgary helped her get a degree by planning exams around her hockey schedule. In response, NCAA athletes have said, ‘Exams’?” • Brad Dickson of the Omaha (Neb.) World-Herald, not impressed with Louisville’s uniforms at the College World Series: “Players look like they came from a garage sale at Lady Gaga’s house.” • Headline at SportsPickle.com: “Tiger Woods back to not being back.” • Blogger TC Chong, on Ottawa’s new CFL team, the RedBlacks: “Their logo will be a checkerboard.” • Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel, on the poor play in the finals by Miami’s Chris Bosh: “Does Bosh actually get a championship ring or just a participatory ribbon?” Care to comment?

SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT A24 www.bclocalnews.com /bc_north Friday, June 28, 2013 The Northern Connector

The detail and scope of our application is matched only by our determination to do it right. WRITTEN BY JANET HOLDER

Janet Holder Janet Holder is a proud Britsh Columbian and the senior executive responsible for the Northern Gateway

Project. Janet lives and works in Prince George.

After a decade of careful planning, our application is now before the regulatory authorities. But that doesn’t mean we are finished in making the case for Northern Gateway to British Columbians and all Canadians. The Northern Gateway Project Joint Review Panel (JRP) deadline for Final Argument has come and gone, and we believe we made the best case for an energy pipeline application ever in Canada’s history. Critical questions, affirmative answers. It all boils down to two questions the JRP must address in their report to the Governorin-Council. One is whether Gateway is in the Canadian public interest, and the second

Joint Review Process. BY THE NUMBERS

Our application to the National Energy Board (NEB) was one of the largest and most comprehensive submissions ever presented in Canada.

Participants is the Project’s likelihood of causing significant adverse environmental impacts. The answers are clear. Gateway is urgently needed, meets all requirements for approval under the National Energy Board Act and is definitely in Canada’s interest. Given the commitments and safety measures we have proposed, the Project is not likely to cause significant adverse effects on the environment. Backed by independent experts in their fields. Northern Gateway’s written and oral JPR evidence was prepared and presented by many of Canada’s and the world’s foremost experts on the related subjects. Each had thorough knowledge of the Project and the relevant scientific and engineering studies completed in support of the Project. Their evidence in favour of Gateway was comprehensive, conclusive and compelling. Unprecedented in scope, detail and potential. Our application was defended by answering thousands of Information Requests and presenting a series of nine witness panels. Together with our partners, we will have spent approximately $500 million on this Project, before receiving approval, including environmental assessments, traditional land use studies, detailed engineering and consultation with communities and First Nations—all over the course of a decade.

Our application details the enormous value of connecting Canadian resources to markets that need those resources for their own economic and social development. We are completely confident that Gateway can be designed, constructed and operated in a safe and responsible manner— first and foremost. Flowing from this, there are the enormous benefits in terms of jobs and dollars to support schools, hospitals and social programs that define this country and this province.
