Mainstream had sued Staniford regarding his anti-salmon farming campaign “Global Alliance Against Industrial Aquaculture.” In it, he compared eating farmed salmon with smoking cigarettes and claimed that “salmon farming kills.”

to appeal his case to the Supreme Court of Canada. He didn’t say when he intends to return to B.C. He also offered this reaction to Monday’s decision on his blog: “This shocking judgment will have a chilling effect on all campaigners speaking out on environmental and social justice issues.”

A Campbell River father received a four-year jail term on Monday for repeatedly sexually assaulting his young daughter. The name of the 53-year-old cannot be published in order to protect the identity of the victim who was just three-and-ahalf years old when the assaults began. He sexually assaulted her for seven years before it finally stopped. The girl is now a teenager.
The girl was spared from testifying when her father pleaded guilty to sex assault and sexual exploitation. As well as jail, he is on the sex offenders registry and is banned from attending places where people under age 16 may be. Judge Brian Saunderson accepted the joint sentencing submission and called the man’s crimes “despicable,” that create “a sense of revulsion in right-minded people.”

Drunk driver swerves at cop car Comox Valley RCMP were called to a report of a suspected impaired driver on Williams Beach Road in Merville on Friday. When officers arrived, they spotted the suspect vehicle, but the driver also spotted the cruiser and sped away. The suspect vehicle then drove at a second police cruiser, but swerved at the last second, went into the ditch and then over turned. The driver, a Courtenay man, was apprehended and charged with dangerous driving, impaired operation of a motor vehicle, assault with a weapon, causing a pursuit and escaping lawful custody. The man will be appearing in court at a future date.
A Hanson Island man charged with killing his wife says he doesn’t want a lawyer. Traigo Andretti, 37, is charged with first degree murder and committing an indignity to a human body. He appeared in Campbell River provincial court on Monday for what was supposed to be a bail hearing, but instead his lawyer asked to be removed from the case. “ The rel at ionship between us…has broken down,” Roxanne Helme told Judge Brian Saunderson. Helme appeared by video with Andretti from cells in Victoria. He’s been there since early May following the arrest of his wife, 41-year-old Jennifer McPherson. She was last seen April 29 on Hanson Island where the two worked as caretakers at Pacific Outback Resort. Her remains were found on the island – located about eight kilometres northeast
of Telegraph Cove – on May 6. Andretti was arrested shortly after her remains were found and has been in custody since then. He’s also been investigated in Manitoba in connection with the death of a former girlfriend, Myrna Letandre, whose remains were found May 9 in a Winnipeg rooming house where they apparently lived together. She was last seen in October 2006. During a court appearance in June, Judge Saunderson urged Andretti to get a lawyer. “You’re accused of murder! You understand that?” the judge asked. Andretti wound up getting Helme to represent him, but on Monday she was removed from
the case following her request. During questioning by Judge Saunderson, Andretti said he understood what he was doing. “Do you want to be represented by a lawyer?” he asked. Andretti replied, “No.” “You need a lawyer whether you want one or not. Do you understand
that?” the judge asked. “Yes,” Andretti said. Finally, Judge Saunderson asked, “You still don’t want a lawyer.” And Andretti responded, “That’s right.” Judge Saunders on replied that no one facing a murder charge, or any other serious charge, should be unrepresented in court. He asked Helme

to contact Legal Aid in order to get Andretti another lawyer, if only to sit in and assist him during future court proceedings. “I want Legal Services to act quickly so we can get his matter back on track,” the judge stated. Andretti is due to back in court again, by video, on Aug. 12.

New development would require motel parking || CAMPBELL 24,2013 2013 CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR | WEDNESDAY, JULY July 24,
Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
A developer wants to move forward with plans to build an apartment building with a liquor store on the ground floor along the South Island Highway. Derik Pallan, the owner of 1054 S. Island Hwy. where he is proposing to develop the facility, was granted re-zoning by council in May, but needs approval for a major development permit in order to proceed with the building. The proposed five-storey apartment would have a unique design and layout because of the challenging character of the lot. City planner Chris Osborne said a large part of the relatively deep lot cannot be developed because of the steep slope at the back of the
property. To avoid the slope, the developer is focusing on the flat, eastern part of the property. In order to accommodate parking, Pallan needs to use a portion of the next door Big Rock Motel site which is also owned by Pallan. “Normally developments of this nature with a storefront at ground level would be expected to be located towards the front of the lot to address the highway, with parking hidden behind,” Osborne said in a report to council. “However, due both to the narrow width and geotechnical constraints of the lot, it is preferable to use the building itself as a retaining structure at the toe of the slope, rather than locate a parking area here. “The remainder of the site leaves insufficient space for
the required parking for 20 apartments,” Osborne continued. “However, the applicant has proposed locating the parking at the adjacent Big Rock Motel site. The proposal to locate additional parking within the frontage relies upon suitable landscape screening to soften the visual impact.” The entrance to the liquor store would face Highway 19 and parking for the store would be at the front of the property. Access to the residential units would be via the side and back of the building. The small size of the lot had some councillors and nearby neighbours questioning the development during the rezoning phase, which included a public hearing. Cou. Ron Kerr was one of those who had concerns about the size of the property.
“I think the site has got severe limitations,” Kerr said at a council meeting in May. “I think it’s too small a property for the intended use. I’m usually pro-development but I just can’t see this succeeding.” Resident John Lewis wrote that “the proposal as outlined fits a building too large to provide on-property parking, requiring an agreement with the Big Rock Motel to provide parking for the apartments above the liquor store.” Grant Currie, who lives across the street from the property, said Campbell River doesn’t need another liquor store. “The concept does nothing to enhance the development, services or appeal to the gateway to Campbell River,” Currie said. “There are certainly more than enough liquor stores in the vicinity of my
neighbourhood. I can drive for approximately 90 seconds and be at four different liquor stores. As three of these liquor outlets are on the Island Highway the addition of another liquor store only adds competition to an already saturated market.” Currie was also concerned about increased traffic in an already busy area. Osborne in his report to council addressed the issue of traffic. “With no new access to Island Highway proposed (the complex would use the Big Rock Motel entrance), the development would not have significant implications for traffic in this location,” Osborne said. “Additional traffic to and from the site would remain small when compared to high background levels of traffic along this busy

stretch of highway.” City staff were recommending before Tuesday’s council meeting, which took place after the Mirror went to press, that council approve the development despite its shortcomings. “The proposed development concept represents an intensive use of a constrained site, and requires locating parking at an adjacent lot, which must be secured by legal covenant (to ensure the space is left open for parking),” Osborne said. “However, the design concept is sound, integrated with good quality architecture and landscaping, and consistent with OCP (Official Community Plan) aims for increased residential density and commercial provision within the waterfront designation. Staff supports this application.”

Campbell River search and rescue one of the busiest in B.C. AlistAir tAylor Campbell RiveR miRRoR
Campbell River Search and Rescue is the 11th busiest Search and Rescue (SAR) team in the province, according to Michael Coyle, a SAR volunteer and blogger. Coyle wrote an item entitled “SAR Team call volumes in B.C.” for his blog, Oplopanax Horridus, Friday. “The goal of today’s analysis is to try to track which teams respond to the highest number of incidents,” Coyle writes. Coyle downloaded and converted all of the Emergency Management BC incident summaries into a format suited to analysis. The data covers the years 2003-2012 giving him a full decade of data. Out of 80 SAR groups in B.C., Coyle developed a chart for the top 10 which are, in order (including their average
number of calls per year), North Shore Rescue (82.7), Chilliwack SAR (66.7), Kent-Harrison SAR (44.5), Squamish SAR (43.8), Golden SAR (38.7), Coquitlam SAR (35), Nelson SAR (33.9), Vernon SAR (33.1), Penticton SAR (32.6) and Central Fraser Valley SAR (31.3). “North Shore Rescue, with three ski hills and adjacent to the (third) largest city in Canada is the obvious choice for the busiest SAR team in B.C.,” Coyle says. Their average is 82.7 incidents per year averaged out from a high of 105 in 2005 and a low of 64 in 2004. “Of the top 10, six are in the southwest region of the province,” Coyle says, “divided between the BCSARA Fraser Valley region and the Seato-Sky region. This is not surprising since 36 per cent of all incidents in B.C. are in this area.”
Nelson, Vernon, Penticton and Golden are clear hotbeds of backcountry activity, all of them having rivers, lakes, mountains, glaciers and a recreation profile that includes mountain biking, hiking, climbing, mountaineering, backcountry skiing and sledding among other sports, Coyle says. “It is worth noting that Campbell River, Comox and Hope are numbers 11, 12 and 13 in call volume, followed closely by Kamloops, Whistler and Ridge Meadows,” Coyle says. C a m p b e l l R i v e r, Comox and Hope can be included in the cluster of teams between #3 and #20 who have a call volume between 25 and 35 calls per year, and are similar in that they also compete for top spot in that cluster, Coyle says. Notable that two of these are on Vancouver Island.

An open house held by Campbell River Search and Rescue last year demonstrated the skills and professionalism of one of the province’s busiest search and rescue squads.
Coyle said in an e-mail to the Mirror that “there are many SAR groups with larger areas in B.C. (than Campbell River) but with very low call volumes. think that call volume is strictly based on number of people recreating or living in an area. Some of the huge remote areas of BC will see very few people. Campbell River is clearly a recreational hub (as is Comox).” Visit Coyle’s blog at: http://blog.oplopanax. ca/2013/07/sar-teamcall-volumes-in-bc/

Minister wanted by regional district Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
Strathcona Regional District directors are inviting a B.C. cabinet minister to the community. Cariboo North MLA Coralee Oakes, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, wrote a letter to local B.C. governments extending an opportunity to schedule a meeting during the Union of B.C. Municipalities (UBCM) convention in Vancouver Sept. 16-20. At a regional district board meeting on July 10, Area D Director Brenda Leigh said she was putting a request in to discuss water rates in Area D as well as the city’s boundary extension proposal which, if approved, would join a portion of Area D with the City of Campbell River. The board decided to have regional district board Chair Ted Lewis as well as the regional district’s chief administrative officer join Leigh in her meeting with Oakes. Lewis also thought the board should invite Oakes up to Campbell River to meet with the directors on their own turf – and before the UBCM convention. While Mayor Walter Jakeway, also a director on the board, warned that it would be highly unlikely Oakes would have the time to take the board up on its invitation, directors went ahead with endorsing the invite. The board also voted to have the chair and vicechair of the regional district board put in a request to meet with Oakes at the Union of B.C. Municipalities conference. Oakes was appointed as Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development on June 10, 2013 by Premier Christy Clark following the May provincial election. The Community, Sport and Cultural Development Ministry is charged with working with communities to help them prepare for investment and growth.

Data supports the case for a Barlow Road crosswalk Kristen Douglas
Campbell RiveR miRRoR
Staff at city hall agree with a group of residents concerned for the safety of pedestrians – the corner of Barlow Road and Highway 19A deserves a crosswalk. Drew Hadfield, the city’s transportation manager, said the city conducted an updated pedestrian count in the Barlow area to see if it met the threshold for a pedestrian crossing. “The counts were used to evaluate the warrant for a pedestrian crossing,” Hadfield said in a report to council. “The warrant supports the installation of a painted crossing and the associated pedestrian crossing signage.” Hadfield said while a good case can be made for a crosswalk, there is not enough foot traffic to support other controls, such as flashing pedestrian lights or a pedestrian-activated traffic signal. Concerned residents in the area presented city council July 9 with a letter, signed by 11 differ-
WE ARE
ent people, asking council to put in a crosswalk with flashing pedestrian lights. They said the biggest problem is that a large number of motorists are travelling over the posted 50 kilometre/per hour speed limit. “The traffic seldom slows down or stops for families with children or people wanting to walk their dogs, crossing to reach the Sea Walk or the beach, mostly because there is no crosswalk,” wrote the residents. “We are requesting a crosswalk, preferably with a flashing light, as soon as possible, before we end up with a fatality on our hands.” Council in response asked city staff to come back with a report outlining council’s options. Those options are: install the signage and road markings on the south leg of the intersection of Barlow and Highway 19A (which is near Rona) or take no action at this time. Council was expected to make a decision at Tuesday’s city council meeting after the Mirror went to press.
The cost of putting in the crosswalk is expected to cost between $750 and $1,000 which would have to come out of the roads department’s operational budget as the 2013 budget was already set in January. Hadfield noted that Barlow is one of the few streets that does not have a crossing for pedestrians. “The majority of the intersections north of Erickson Road have either a crosswalk, pedestrian assisted flashing lit crosswalk or traffic lights,” he said. “The intersections south of Erickson Road have crosswalk and flashing pedestrian lights installed at selected local and collector roadways – Dahl, Maryland and Colorado).” Hadfield said that according to collision records from ICBC from 2008-2012, there has been one accident in five years and it was not involving a pedestrian. But, Hadfield noted, speeds are “quite high” – 52 kilometres per hour and 85th percentile speeds are 65 kilometres per hour.

Our View
Korean veterans earned respect We were heartened recently upon hearing Canadian veterans of the Korean War were finally to be recognized with their own day of remembrance. The Year of the Korean War Veteran We say: We was proclaimed by the federal should never take government in January to coincide with 60th anniversary of the armistice their sacrifice for the signed in 1953. But the enactment of granted a special day, July 27, to be marked in perpetuity to honour the sacrifices and efforts of Canadian soldiers, sailors and air force personnel, has more long-term significance.
In all, 516 Canadians died and another 1,558 were wounded in the three-year conflict, a battle between the Soviet and China-supported north, and the south Koreans, supported by the United Nations, some of the member countries of which waged war against the Nazis just a handful of years previous. Media of the day largely ignored the conflict, to the point where many Canadians didn’t realize their country was playing a role in the war-torn region. Luckily, things have changed in 50 years, including the treatment of veterans and the value we place on their role in maintaining peace and reducing chaos in the world.
Most wars in which Canada has been involved have aimed to achieve a political end for the greater good. The people on the front lines working to accomplish that aim – some of whom paid the ultimate price – deserve to be recognized for their efforts, which in the vast majority of cases are honest, true and patriotic. Regardless how one feels about war, the Canadians who have fought them have, at the end of the day, worked to protect the rights and freedoms we should never take for granted. For that, they deserve our thanks. – Black Press
Letters
Thanks for speaking out
Re: Mark Treacy’s Letter about Area D and the lack of leadership. I agree totally with Mark’s comments about the total lack of leadership for area D. It appears that the director will not act on the wishes of this area. Seven years of stalling has now resulted in the need for annexation by Campbell River if we are ever to get sewer to this area. The area in question is not rural as Ms Leigh insists when in fact we live in subdivisions like Campbell River. There is an environmental and health issue that Mark alluded to as well. It is time to get on with getting this project done. Thanks Mark for speaking out about how things really are! Charles Alford
St. Ann’s should be a greenway
May I add my voice to those who believe that the construction zone on Saint Ann’s street should become a pedestrian greenway and not just another piece of pavement. Put in the underground pipes and communications stuff thats required. Its not too late to do this until the pavement goes down.

Here’s hoping the container debate will fade away
Alistair Taylor
Out On A Limb @AlstrT
editor@campbellrivermirror.com
Well, you know you sit in the editor’s chair for years and the issues come and issues go. People get up in arms over one and others are ignored. Some public hearings have to be held in the Tidemark Theatre there’s so much interest and with others, the only noncity people attending are bored media reporters trying to stay awake. But one of the stranger issues that’s come across my plate is the proposed prohibition on metal shipping containers. It’s one of those issues that at first blush you’re inclined to make fun of because you don’t realize how prevalent they are. Consequently, you’re surprised when the story proves to “have legs” as they say in journalistic parlance; meaning there’s more to it than you realize
and it generates a lot of debate. I probably wouldn’t have paid these containers any mind, even though, thinking back, I can remember seeing them in various places but didn’t think enough about them to make any kind of comment. But now that the issue has been brought to the public agenda thanks to a city proposal to ban them, I see them everywhere. Which is the point city staff are making, of course. But if they hadn’t pointed it out, I wouldn’t have paid no never mind to them at all. Sure, there’s a fellow on Hilchey Road who’s got one on his residential lot. And I remember seeing one being used at the motocross track. Oh, and there’s that one that was moved onto the lot behind the
Mirror by the company constructing an apartment building. See, you start thinking about them and you realize there’s no shortage of them anywhere. And why not, they’re sturdy, they’re bullet-proof and they’re cheap. As Ken Fear said in Paul Rudan’s story “Welcome to shipping container central” on Friday, “They’re everywhere.” And the proposal to restrict their use has come under fire. Council is considering a bylaw to restrict the containers to industrial-zoned areas only and ban them from residential and commercial properties. The problem is, people are using them instead of building proper buildings built to code and denying the city development permits and development cost
charges. I’d hope that this not simply a cash grab by the city and that the real issue is esthetics and safety. The trouble is, banning the containers might also deprive some businesses of income from renting them out. And speaking of safety, I’m hoping Ted Arbour wasn’t serious when, in defending the containers’ use, he used as a rationalization the possibility of the containers being an affordable housing option. That was a joke, right? Still, it’s a valid point that on smaller, residential lots, the containers are unsightly and inappropriate. On a larger commercial lot, they could be tucked away out of sight and perhaps kept in good condition. Then they can fade into the background again.

Real estate is on the move
Campbell River is on the move and the first quarter MLS figures indicate it’s upwards and onwards. May saw 56 homes sold, only 4 short of April’s record breaking 60. Which is a big improvement from April 2012 which saw 41 homes sold and May 2012 which saw 43 homes sold. June’s sales were 37, which continues to be better than June 2012 which saw 33 homes sold. Inventory of single family homes in June 2012 ballooned to 345, compared to 255 in June 2013. That is almost 100 less single family homes for buyers to choose

ery. KLP Construction is rumoured to have purchased 30 lots in Discovery Plateau which is now sold out for the time being (phase 6 scheduled for release in 2014). Desolution Land Corp and NVH Homes are snapping up lots like hot cakes in Jubilee Estates (phase 4 is rumoured for release in a matter of weeks). Earlier this year, Ted Maxwell was selling Parkway Estates lots for $85,000 upwards; however in June the minimum price was $118,900. In a nutshell, if you have a spare $25,000 and access to financing, buy a lot today.

Women cycling for the children of Africa Arelene Lihala and Jennifer Olsen will be embarking on a Bike for the Children Tour from Spirit Square in Campbell River to Victoria’s Inner Harbour Aug. 3-4 to support the children at Chikondi One Heart Angles Orphanage in Malawi, Africa. Lihala is the founder of the orphanage which opened in July 2012. She travels to Africa to work directly with the children at the orphanage who would not have survived without the critical personal care and love that she unconditionally provides. “When I a m working at the orphanage, words cannot describe the feelings I experience every day when spending time with the children playing, giving love, joy and peace in my heart,” Lihala said. Olsen’s passion lies with connecting with

Jessica Revoy (left), has been looking forward to this day for two years. She heard about the charity “Locks of Love” that provides wigs for children experiencing hair loss due to various illnesses or treatments and wanted to help. She has been growing her hair out in order to donate it ever since. Her wish has finally come true...Mandy Neil at Headquarters recently cut 12 inches off Revoy’s mane and gave her a fabulous summer style. Revoy doesn’t miss her long hair at all and is happy someone else will make use of it. Her mom is just happy she spends less time in the bathroom combing it.

Dr. K K Lathangue Lathangue Dr. Question: At what age should children 3x5 first see a dentist? 3x5 Answer:
The Canadian Dental Association recommends the first visit to a dentist before your child’s first birthday. The general rule is six months after the eruption of the first tooth. The reasoning is to catch any issues in their earliest stages. It also helps to educate parents on tooth Dr. Kevin Lathangue decay, how to clean your child’s teeth, what to put into a sippy cup and how much toothpaste to apply to the toothbrush. The major tenet here is to start your child off with a lifetime of good oral care habits as well as to acclimate him/her to the dental office which, ultimately, will reduce fear and anxiety. Don’t be surprised or upset if your child is fussy or non-cooperative - this is a very common scenario and can be gradually addressed with short successive visits designed to instill trust and familiarity with both the dentist as well as staff and environment. Children tend to exhibit a greater sense of comfort when they are exposed to familiar environments and familiar people so dental visits which, at first, appear to be rather traumatic can, over time, become increasingly comfortable for all involved.

COMMUNITY COMMUNITY
Campbell River benefits from Pacific Salmon Foundation grants and community outreach CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR | WEDNESDAY, JULY July 24, || CAMPBELL 24,2013 2013
Campbell River salmon restoration and conservation groups are among the most active of regional volunteers that benefit from Pacific Salmon Foundation funding. Since 1992 the Foundation has invested nearly $600,000 in Campbell River projects with a total value of $4.7 million. Part of Campbell River’s success is a heavy investment in commu-
nity outreach and education Most recently, Campbell River has received $13,500 in support from the Pacific Salmon Foundation to help build awareness and environmental stewardship in the community. The funding is part of more than $464,000 in grants this spring and summer to support 57 projects in 45 communities across B.C.
The grant funding included $13,000 to the Discovery Passage SeaLife Society for a salmon display tank and educational salmon life cycle signage at the new aquarium at the Fishing Pier. The BC Centre for Aquatic Health Sciences also received $500 for its Ocean’s Day celebration. “The funding allowed us to increase education and awareness around the ocean and salmon,”
said Elan Downey of the BC Centre for Aquatic Health Sciences. On Saturday, July 27 the Foundation will hold a Pink Salmon Festival in Campbell River thanks to the hard work of Campbell River local and Foundation volunteer Larry E. Stefanyk. Proceeds from the festival will benefit the Foundation’s efforts in the Campbell River area. “Pink salmon are
MANAGING YOUR MONEY Graduating into life–and Managing Yourreal MOney your 4x10 first job Ken Garraway CFP
Senior Financial Consultant
Convocation is over and you throw your cap into the air in celebration … and it falls to the ground. That’s gravity and the gravity of your new situation hits you–time to get your first real job, time to face up to the financial realities of the multiple stages of your life that are inevitable after graduation. For new grads, the period just after graduation can be financially overwhelming. Here are a few things to consider to help you get past those worrisome days and get launched into a financially secure future:. Repaying student loans It’s possible that you have as many as four different loans from four different lenders, including both provincial and federal lenders. Repayment will require separate payments to each lender. Manage the process by: • Assessing whether or not loan consolidation– which allows for one simple payment–is best for you. It could cost you more in the long run because student loans often offer a lower interest rate than standard
bank loans. • Consider taking advantage of the grace period of six months to a year offered by federal and provincial student loan programs before repayment is required. • During repayment, you can claim a non-refundable federal tax credit of 16% of the interest paid each year on your student loans. But you can’t claim this credit if your student loan was combined with another kind of loan. Building a credit rating Establishing and keeping a good credit rating is imperative: • Your credit rating is based on your credit history– that includes every time you borrow money from a bank, lease company, or department store–and lists how often you’ve been late with payments and exactly how late you were. • Remember: Your student loan repayment history, good or bad, becomes a part of your personal credit rating. Budgeting and cash flow management Bills and expenses can eat up your paycheck fast! • Set up an effective
budget. • Establish good spending habits and a solid savings plan. Take care of the financial details There will be a lot of demands on you and your money–but take the time to: • Save early and often by committing a portion of each paycheck to savings and investments–especially an RRSP. • Join your company pension plan or set up an individual plan. • Make a will and get insured. When you establish good financial habits now, you’ll graduate to longterm financial success. A professional adviser can be the mentor you need to do just that.

the smallest and most abundant of the Pacific salmon, and are at a record high in the North Pacific, but they are sometimes overlooked by the public as a desirable food source,” said Stefanyk. “We’re trying to educate the public that by considering pinks as a seafood choice, you are making an environmentally sustainable purchase. Campbell River is a thriving fishing community and it benefits us to help people make the connection between stewardship of the resource and being able to enjoy it.” Many people in Campbell River don’t realize they are already supporting the Foundation. When Campbell River anglers purchase a Salmon Conservation Stamp, they are also helping to fund salmon conservation and restoration projects. Significant funding for community grants are generated through proceeds from sales of the Salmon Conservation Stamp, the decal that must be purchased annually by anglers if they wish to keep Pacific salmon caught in saltwater off of Canada’s West Coast.
Since 1989, the Foundation has received $6.5 million in Salmon Conservation Stamp funds. Earlier this year, the Foundation successfully campaigned to return 100 per cent of Salmon Conservation Stamp user fees to B.C. “The success of our community partners provided a strong case for returning all of the Salmon Conservation Stamp funds to B.C.,” said Dr. Brian Riddell, president and CEO of the Foundation. “The new stamp money has the potential to generate an additional $1 million for future community grants, which we believe will help us adequately meet the needs of our community partners,” Riddell said Campbell River’s representative in parliament, MP John Duncan (Vancouver Island North) was a vocal proponent in Ottawa for the Foundation’s Salmon Conservation Stamp proposal. Riddell also said Foundation grants in 2013 marked a key expansion as community streamkeeping groups extend their work into nearshore marine habitats. “Salmon science is increasingly indicating that the freshwater and marine habitats are equally critical to salmon survival,” said Riddell. “It was exciting to be able to fund several projects taking place in saltwater as well as freshwater this year.” In addition to funds generated by the Salmon Conservation Stamp,
the Foundation raises roughly another $1 million annually through 11 community fundraising dinners, corporate and private donations, and contributions made through B.C. sport fishing lodges. Since 1987, the Foundation has invested $37.5 million into 2,073 projects for salmon conser vation across B.C. The projects were largely the work of more than 35,000 volunteer streamkeepers across. The results have been significant, including 11 million juvenile salmon produced through community hatcheries and 1.1 million square meters of streams and estuaries and plant habitat rehabilitated. Combined with volunteer labor and local donations of goods, services and money, the total value of the projects has been $136 million during the last 26 years. About the Pacific Salmon Foundation: The Pacific Salmon Foundation was created in 1987 as an independent, non-governmental, charitable organization to protect, conserve and rebuild Pacific Salmon populations in British Columbia and the Yukon. The Foundation’s mission is to be the trusted voice for conservation and restoration of wild Pacific salmon and their ecosystems and works to bring salmon back stream by stream through the strategic use of resources and local communities.

September 2, 1953-July 25, 2011 It’s been two years since we’ve lost you, But your memory will never fade. A husband, grandpa and father, A friend you just can’t trade. So many thing you’ve taught us, A bond no one could take. Contagious smiles and wisdom, A love we won’t forsake. And as the time goes past us, Your presence will still remain. And the memories of the good times Will take away the pain.

The festival is the largest free outdoor art exhibition on the North Island and provides an excellent venue for artists and art admirers to connect and interact. Artists working in a wide variety of mediums will share their inspirations with the public creating an exciting cross-section of the arts on the North Island, including painting, carving, pottery, jewelry and so much more. The concept of the festival is to keep the registration fees low, making it easily affordable for local artists, while offering free public admission to create a spectacular event that will surely entertain and inspire. The festival is growing and is poised to become a landmark event for the city of Campbell River with the addition this year of a performance stage and a theatrical performance by the Black Crow Theater Company, as well as musicians dispersed throughout the grounds. The exhibition will be accompanied by The Pink Salmon Festival happening just down the street at The Robert Osler Park which will also have its own array of entertainment and family fun creating a truly unique day in Campbell River. Since its inception the River City Arts Fest has been gaining momentum and the ultimate goal is to create a festival that will become a cornerstone for arts and entertainment on Vancouver Island. Another addition to this year festival will be a culinary arts component which will feature food specials from own our local, downtown restauranteurs. The menus will include: Misty Fins: Pulled Pork Sandwich $6 & Italian Soda’s $3 On Line Gourmet: Poutine $7 Banners: 24 Flavors of Hard Ice-cream Whether you’re interested in buying art, being inspired, or simply just having a fun time with the kids while enjoying the educational qualities of the festival, it will be a great opportunity to get out and experience the amazing artistic talent of the North Island and surrounding communities.

Campbell River’s River Spirit dragon boat team lets its hair down for a performance of Kelly Clarkson’s Stronger during a Dragon Boat regatta in Nanaimo.
Winning hearts over races River Spirit, Campbell River’s breast cancer dragon boat team, recently competed in the Nanaimo dragon boat festival. Although the team didn’t win any medals they came home with the admiration and support of hundreds of fellow paddlers. It all started at the Campbell River Relay for Life, when team member, Sally Feast was joined by other members to lead the crowd in a warm-up. Feast chose the song “Stronger” by Kelly Clarkson and worked with some of the paddlers to choreograph the moves. When the team discovered that the theme for the
Nanaimo festival was “So You Think You Can Dance”, members knew they could do something special. Warmups before dragon boat practices became “dance practices” as the team worked to perfect their moves. Costumes were considered and an urban hip-hop theme decided on. The results - on the Friday of the festival the team attended the breast cancer survivor dinner and performed with seven other teams. The crowd was asked to pick their favourite, the applause was deafening, and River Spirit was the resounding winner. Saturday morning, the team received personal
invitations to attend the major paddlers’ dinner and perform in the dance-off that night. There the team danced with about a dozen other teams and were placed in the top three by a panel of judges. Again the crowd picked their favourite, River Spirit. As hundreds of paddlers joined them for an encore of “Stronger”, there were tears in many eyes as well as words of love and admiration. A f re e e nt r y to next year’s festival in Nanaimo was a special gift. On the water, the ladies paddled to a respectable fourth in the Diamond A division. The following week
saw the team at a work bee, creating pillows for breast surgery patients at Campbell River Hospital and squeeze balls to use for rehabilitation. On July 22, in recognition of the team’s 10th anniversary, a cheque for $1,000 was presented to the Hospital Foundation toward the purchase of a new mammography monitor. This donation recognizes the founders of the team, its sponsors and all the support that the community has given over the last 10 years. For more information about the team go to www.riverspirit.ca or call Val Larson at 250923-5844.

More local art covers city pressure valve box The Campbell River Arts Council wrapped another artist’s image around a city PRV (Pressure Reducing Valve) box. Artist Nanci Cook has had her image wrapped onto the third PRV box in the city. This box is on Orange Road at the north end of Campbell River. Of the image Cook says, “When I saw the photo of the box that needed artwork, I thought of the landscape it would be in — forested acreage, perhaps dry in the summer, when
more people would be using the trails. I thought it would be a great experience to be hiking and encounter a large seascape, in all the blues of the distant islands. This painting was started above Hyacinth Bay on Quadra, plein air, then finished in the studio. I wanted to show the grandeur and serenity that I felt there – recreating it for a few moments for others.” Cook’s image was selected after the Public Art call that the Arts Council administered on behalf of the City of Campbell River.
