History, heritage, and honour – a Remembrance Day like no other SIMON SCHOPMAN On Saturday July 6, 40 Bella Coolan’s, ranging from small children to seniors, gathered at the wharf at 7am to take the Clowhom Spirit to nearby Shearwater. On a beautiful sunny morning, Dall’s porpoises playing in our wake, and eagles overhead, we shared in the camaraderie of being “The Bella Coola Contingent” for the unveiling of the Warrior Pole carved by Heiltsuk Carver/Artist, Nusi Yakuudlas ‘Ian’ Reid, the new Cenotaph, the Replica Stranraer Flying Boat weathervane, built by the Canadian
Museum of Flight in Langley, and the “Bella Bella – United in History” mural by acclaimed artist Paul Ygartua. We arrived at the dock to the smell of salmon smoking by a huge fire pit, tended by the famed artist himself Nusi Yakuudlas Reid. “Locals, aside from just First Nations, locals period, died to protect us. The Warrior pole is dedicated to all the descendents, as much as it is to all those who served. It is an honour to pay homage to all of our ancestors who fought and died for what we have today.” Hereditary Chiefs from the Heiltsuk Nation opened the
ceremonies with a traditional dance and blessing, while the Heiltsuk Youth provided the drumming and chanting. The stunning Warrior Pole, with a proud Raven at its crest, was blessed with Eagle Down and imbued with the spirit of friendship and pride through a traditional Paddle Song. The 125ft x 22ft mural, when unveiled, received a similar blessing of Eagle Down, although on a much larger scale, and any descendents of those whose portraits were unveiled had time to speak at the podium about their ancestors’ accomplishments, and to share the stories of
those who influenced the development of the Denny Island area. With almost four months to go until Remembrance Day, the bugle sounded “The Last Post,” the colours were lowered and raised, the poppies; as bright red as the maple leaf behind them, were pinned to the fluttering flag draped over the soon to be unveiled cenotaph, and a welcome summer breeze cooled the crowd of over 200. “Being here today means a lot to me, the significance of what all the vets did over the years, who fought and what they gave up for our country,” said Ron Richards,
President of Bella Coola Legion Branch #262. “This area has a lot of military history, and today brings that history back into focus.” Twelve First Nations Veterans had been identified, and researched. Craig Widsten, President of Shearwater Resort and Marina, read the names of the Native War Veterans of the Central Coast after the unveiling and dedication of the Warrior Pole.

Bella Coola Bear Aware now known as WildSafe BC The Bear Aware program that has been offered in the Bella Coola Valley since 2009 has now evolved into the WildSafeBC program and although our name has changed we still have the same basic mandate, which is to reduce human-wildlife conflict through education, innovation and cooperation. WildSafeBC is a program owned and operated by the BC Conservation Foundation (BCCF) and exists because of cooperation and funding from the provincial government, the BCCF, local and regional governments and through the support of individuals and private organizations. I am now in my third year with the program, and it is the community
who directs the coordinator on how they would like this program run, and how best to serve its mandate. This year with the name change, the focus is not only on bears, but on all forms of wildlife that come into conflict with people. While bears will always be our primary focus here in the valley, we now have information to share on animals such as coyotes, cougars and deer. We have found that there are many ways to deal with things that draw wildlife on to properties here in the Valley, and the coordinator’s job is to help find solutions to these ongoing issues. One solution that has proven to be very effective in other agricultural based commu-
nities in B.C. is the implementation of electric fencing. A good and common example of its use in these communities would be in the electric fencing of a fruit tree. With the correct fence and strategy, this tool has proven to work very well not only in keeping the trees safe from bears, but also keeping bears safe from conflict. Because of the effectiveness of this tool, recently electric fencing clinics, run by the Bella Coola Bear Working Group, have been brought in to the Valley. A measurable result has been the new implementation of several electric fences, and many more planned. As a tried and tested strategy when it
comes to protecting a property owner’s garden and fruit trees as well as the wildlife that surrounds it, we look forward to more electric fence installations going up this year, along with other means that promote a healthy co-existence with the wildlife in our community. If anyone needs help or further information on this program please call me (Ellie 250 957 8445) and I will come over with some ideas. Thank you community members of the Bella Coola Valley, for the opportunity to serve you once again this year through the use of a Bella Coola styled WildSafeBC program! Have a great summer!

Centennial Pool staff work hard to keep pool closures to a minimum Janice Newkirk Many Valley residents have been enjoying the pool this summer. We have seen a great start with attendance for our Red Cross swimming lessons, and a number of youth in the valley have been participating in Lifesaving awards such as Bronze Star and Bronze Cross. These young people will hopefully be our future lifeguards and instructors! However, the recent weeks have also seen some frustrations in regards to unscheduled pool closures. As we all know Centennial Pool is aging, built in 1967 it is in its 46th year! Much of the infrastructure has been pieced together over the years with the help of the CCRD and funding as it becomes available. Each year we do our best to make improvements, this year saw the creation of a new undercover viewing area, smoother and safer cement decking as well as a new pump.
However new challenges seem to arise with every coming year as well and replacement parts can be very costly and take time to arrive in the valley. Staff have been working hard to maintain the pool and to keep closures to a minimum. Any closures that are made are necessary in maintaining proper pool chemistry and a high level of safety for our pool users. We realize that unplanned closures can be both inconvenient and irritating to members of the public and apologize for this however we are doing the very best we can with the funding we have. It is always a good idea to give the pool a call (250982-2488) prior to coming to confirm our hours. We hope that the Valley residents and visitors continue to enjoy and use this wonderful service that is available to our community. The Centennial Pool is now almost 50 years old and still being enjoyed by Valley residents.

Bella Coola was our first choice.” Having visited the Valley several years ago with his family, they fell in love with the place. “We absolutely loved it here,” said Van Wieringen. “My family and I spent a week camping and enjoyed every minute.” With hobbies like fishing and outdoor sports, the Valley seemed to be
the perfect fit. Although Van Wieringen is tasked to general duty, he says one of his main passions on the job is stopping impaired drivers. Last year, he was awarded a certificate from the family of four yearold Alexa Middelear, who was killed by a drunk driver in Delta in 2010. “If you stop 13 or

Kurt Edgar and family were on hand for the unveiling. I asked him about the relationships during this time, as historically it was well known as being bad between the government and the Native People. “The relationship between
Herb Sr. and the air force crew was really good. We seven children were named after his fellow servicemen, and the army was good to our family,” said Edgar. “When our father passed away in 2008, the army reimbursed the Squamish Band for all the transportation and accommodation costs they had provided for our family, and the costs to transport our father home. They really stood behind us and our family.” The Edgar family had a photograph of Herb Sr. in uniform, a young man, no more than 18, smiling and proud to
be of service to the country. (The Edgar family would like to gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Cheryl Billy of the Squamish Nation for facilitating the Army reimbursement) Vera Robson and family were there representing the four surviving generations of the Clayton family, with three generations attending. John Clayton (1842-1910), one of the 17 portraits chosen to be on the new mural, is Bill Robson’s great-grandfather. Clayton was the first immigrant landowner and businessmen in Bella Coola and agent

had heard growing up of the fearsome courage of the First Nations in WWI. Duka’aisla ‘William’ Housty, whose grandfather, Ray Humchitt, was the oldest hereditary chief there and is the only surviving First Nations veteran of the 12 that were honoured that day. Humchitt is the son of Chief Harry Humchitt (18651925), who was one of the original founding Chiefs of the Heiltsuk Nation, and one of four Chiefs to be depicted on the mural. Humchitt received a standing ovation when he rose to place his poppy on the Canada Flag. “Craig had heard me at a potlatch in the past, and had called me to assist with the mural’s cultural history. He also asked me if I would do the ceremonies and the blessings,” said Housty. “Craig felt
that it was really important to include the whole community, and today is about the whole community living side by side, to bridge and acknowledge the relationships that we have.” Of his grandfather’s role in the day, “I’m really happy to have him here, and happy to have a lot of the Heiltsuk youth participating in much of today’s ceremonies, it feels like it has come full circle.” Steve Carpenter, a descendent of Captain Richard Carpenter (18411931) who spoke for his family in a short, but very well spoken, speech said, “No matter the colour of your skin, your tribe, your creed, this mural portrays the legacy that we are ALL Coastal Peoples!” This garnered a huge round of applause and many wiped away tears. Captain Carpenter was the most famous carver,

artist, canoe/boat builder in his era, and the first lighthouse keeper at Dryad Point. Hilistis ‘Pauline’ Waterfall, 2010 Order of BC recipient, educator and founding member of the Indigineous Adult and Higher Learning Association, “Keeper of the Knowledge” of the Heiltsuk Nation, was an instrumental part of making this day possible. “What endeared me most was Paul’s openness to culture, his openness to learning and his willingness to capture the spirit and essence of our ancestors,” she said. “In the old days, our people believed that if you could capture the spirit of someone in a photograph, or a painting, then it was an eternal treasure that kept us connected to them. When he started, he felt the ancestral and spiritual energy. I call him, my ‘Mural miracle maker.’” Housty acknowledged and thanked Ygartua for the deep respect he showed when dealing with their ancestors. He presented Widsten and Ygartua with Beaded eagle feathers, “Which represent the strength, unity, and power that comes from the wings of the Great Eagle,” said Housty. “It comes from all of our people, in recognizing your foresight, drive, and

determination, to make sure this project was completed. Thank you for making sure that both of our communities were working together and included in this great day.” Hilistis went on to conclude, “We wanted Paul to come and paint a mural about our history on our new longhouse in Bella Bella. When we realized the cost involved… we struck a deal… a lifetime supply of seafood,” said Hilistis to a large round of applause and laughter from the audience. “Not only is this a visual reminder of who and where we all come from, but we will also be developing a curriculum so that we can teach local community history to all the schools.”

to the Heiltsuk First Nation. There were concerns that three large fuel tanks below the Band store, which provides the community with fuel for home heating, boats and cars, would catch fire and explode. Residents said people located in the potential fuel tank blast radius were evacuated from their homes early this morning. “The fire is still smoldering as there could be a false wall inside the building, which is making the fire harder to put out completely,” says Bella Bella Fire Chief Sunny Hunt.
The small community of Bella Bella, B.C. has been left reeling last Friday morning after a fire destroyed their only grocery store which contained a post office, cafe and liquor store. The local fire crew and volunteers worked hard at keeping the fire contained, says Bella Bella RCMP Sargent Glen Caston. Bella Bella is an isolated community on the central coast north of Queen Charlotte Strait and is home
Hunt says plans have been put in place to get food to the community with a barge set to arrive at Bella Bella on Sunday; which will be bringing two times the amount of food. A temporary store will be set up in the community hall and the community of Shearwater; which is across the sound does have some food to help Bella Bella. A community planning meeting is in place and Bella Bella RCMP say the investigation into how the fire started is ongoing.

I could not leave knowing these faces and feelings would still exist, even though I would be set free from mine.” The people who look for the possibilities in an impossible task often make the difference, and Terry Fox was one of those people. It was Terry’s determination towards his ultimate goal – to outrun cancer – that exemplifies the importance of leading by example.

PUBLIC NOTICE
RECALL AND INITIATIVE ACT
This notice is published pursuant to section 4 of the Recall and Initiative Act. Approval in principle has been granted on an application for an initiative petition. The petition will be issued to proponent Dana Larsen on Monday, September 9, 2013 and signature sheets must be submitted to the Chief Electoral Officer by Monday, December 9, 2013. The Title of the Initiative is: An initiative to amend the Police Act. Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act” proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make non-lawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.
Initiative Advertising: Individuals or organizations who sponsor initiative advertising, other than the proponent and registered opponents, must register with the Chief Electoral Officer before they conduct or publish initiative advertising. Registration applications are available from Elections BC. Who May Sign the Petition: Registered voters as of Monday, September 9, 2013 may sign the initiative petition.

Sugar and the obesity problem Dr. Paul Martiquet Medical Health Officer Obesity is a very serious and ongoing health issue but while we concern ourselves with the fact of obesity, we sometimes overlook the history of the problem. A BBC report from the United Kingdom identifies the 1960s as the turning point for what has become an epidemic. Its measure is reflected in the fact
The Central Coast Regional District is pleased to be a sponsor of the 14th Annual Bella Coola Music Festival
that today, British people are on average nearly 19 kg heavier than 50 years ago. During two world wars and a depression, food shortages led to reduced consumption because of food shortages. By the 1960s that was a problem of the past and obesity began to rise. Initially this was limited to rich countries, but it had soon spread to middle-income countries as well. The blame, accord-
ing to the BBC report, is the increase in the amounts of sugar we ingest. And in particular, the amount of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS). This product is a very sweet by-product of waste corn, and in the 1970s, it was incredibly cheap. This led to substituting HFCS for traditional sugars as a sweetener in processed foods. In turn, this led to a massive increase in the quantities of cheaper food showing up in supermarkets. The result was bigger portions and more ‘sugar’ in more places. The sweetener found its way into pizzas, meat, bread, cakes and more. By the mid80s, corn syrup had replaced sugar in fizzy soft drinks. And consumption kept rising. Why the concern over one type of sweetener over another? After all, what’s the difference between them? Sucrose is the sugar we know as basic table sugar — it contains both glucose and fructose. The first of these, glucose is found in fruits in small amounts. Glucose syrup is made from corn starch. The other component, fructose, is the main sugar occurring naturally in all fruits. It also occurs in high-fructose corn syrup. Fructose is easily converted to fat in the body. It acts to suppress the action of a vital hormone called leptin which is the mechanism that tells
your brain that you have had enough, that you don’t really need that second sugary drink or pastry. When the liver is overloaded with sugars, leptin simply stops working… and you have that second serving. Too much sugar; the wrong kind of sugar; too many choices. All of these contribute to obesity, but the fundamental problem remains that when one consumes too many calories to balance out with exercise, the result is weight gain. Of course, eating less sugar is linked with weight loss, and eating more is linked with weight gain. A new review of published studies (New Zealand) lends support to the idea that advising people to limit the sugar in their diets may help lessen excess weight and obesity. In the 1970s we became concerned that fat was causing heart disease other chronic health problems. The solution, of course, was to introduce low-fat products in all food categories. Of course, no one asked if it was a good idea to replace fat with sugar as was happening. Now to find something to replace all that sugar. Dr. Paul Martiquet is the Medical Health Officer for Rural Vancouver Coastal Health including Powell River, the Sunshine Coast, Seato-Sky, Bella Bella and Bella Coola.
