Swimmers dive into renewed Gorge swim fest Tough task to convince public the Gorge Waterway is clean and safe Edward Hill News staff
Salty but without the biting chill of the open ocean, murky but deceptively clean, the Gorge Waterway is unlike any other swimming spot in Greater Victoria. A watery playground of the city a century ago, ushering the inlet back to its glory days has been easier said than done. Community groups and municipalities lining the waterway are helping launch the second Gorge Swim Fest in August, a revival of a revival from a decade ago, itself a revival from the early 1900s. “There was a Gorge swim fest 100 years ago. There were no pools, people didn’t have cars to get to lakes,” said Jack Meredith, one of the swim fest organizers. “The first time I went in it was a shock. I knew it was salty but I was surprised how salty it was. I was also surprised how warm it was. And I asked the question everyone asks – how safe is it to swim? I talked to (the health authority) and found out it was the cleanest water around. For me it was a wake-up call. I had lived here for 15 years and hadn’t taken advantage of this. “ Meredith, with the Vic West Community Association, and area resident John Sanderson launched the latest incarnation
of the swim festival last year, to great success – thousands came out and more than 600 hit the water in Banfield Park in Vic West, Gorge Park (Curtis Point) in Saanich and Esquimalt Gorge Park in Esquimalt. “It’s cleaned up now. When I was growing up, you came down here to get polio,” Sanderson said joking. “It was polluted. It was the back end of the world.” Environmental advocate John Roe helped prompt the cleanup of the toilet bowl of a waterway in the 1990s and organized swim fests in the opening years of the new millennium, including a 10-kilometre open water swim into the Inner Harbour. “John Roe was a carpenter from Ontario who came out here and canoed to his job at Capital Iron. He got mad and said ‘God damn it I’m going to clean this up by 2000.’ That was 1996,” Sanderson recalled. People still occasionally abandon junk in the Gorge, but long gone are the days of leaky septic systems, floating trash and stormwater flushing metals and oil into the water. As the swim fest organizers are quick to point out, the waterway tends to be cleaner than any popular swimming hole in the city, including Thetis and Elk lakes. Remove most of the urban run-

Meredith is helping organize this year’s Gorge Swimfest, which aims to encourage people to use the Gorge Waterway as a swimming recreation area, as it was a century ago. off and the flushing action of the tides keeps pollution levels low. “When you talk to people about swimming in the Gorge, usually the response at first is ‘yuck.’ And then it’s ‘can you?’” Meredith said. Unfortunately, the Gorge’s enduring reputation for pollution, and the assumption the water is a hypothermia risk drives swim fest. The event is also about connecting with the city’s past, the early 1900s when recreational swimming and races were commonplace in the Gorge. “The more people swimming in here the more will be concerned about taking care of the Gorge. It’s about taking care of our backyard,” Meredith said. “If people aren’t concerned it will go downhill again. If they are concerned, they’ll take care of it.”

run down after the 1940s. “I think its neat this was the resort spot of Victoria. I’d love to see it brought back as a resort again,” Meredith remarked. Despite the men insisting it’s the “warmest water in Victoria,” when this reporter jumped in on a sunny afternoon, the Gorge carried an invigorating salty chill. For someone accustomed to the cool fresh water of Thetis or Langford lakes, swimming in the same water as passing harbour ferries is a novelty, as is feeling the pull of the tide. “When I get in, I forget it’s salty,” remarked Lori Garcia-Meredith, wife of Jack Meredith. “It looks like a river, but its easier to swim and float.” PlEASE SEE: Island Swimming, Page A8

Saanich leads region in tree canopy loss 1,037 hectares of forest lost in Greater Victoria within six years Kyle Slavin News staff
While aerial maps on Google are a fun tool to use to explore a city from above, the Habitat Acquisition Trust is using aerial photos to highlight a rapidly growing problem in Greater Victoria. Between 2005 and 2011, Greater Victoria lost 1,037 hectares worth of tree canopy – enough mature trees to cover every square inch of the Town of Sidney twice. “It’s just stunning to think about the pace at which it happening,” said Adam Taylor, HAT’s executive director. “It appears like our tree loss is increasing in speed over the course of these years.” HAT pored over aerial photos of Greater Victoria taken in 1986, 2005 and 2011 with a fine-tooth comb to measure tree loss.
Taylor says while he expected to see big changes between 1986 and 2005, he was shocked by the drastic loss in the six years from 2005 to 2011. “Some of the areas suffered a nine per cent loss of total tree cover in just six years. This trend can’t continue forever – we’ll literally run out of trees in 50 years,” he said. HAT singled out Saanich as being the municipality that saw some of the biggest changes. Between 2005 and 2011, Saanich lost 378 hectares of tree cover, and simultaneously gained 532.8 hectares of impervious surfaces like roads and buildings. Langford came in second, losing 118 hectares of tree cover. “It’s not just a Saanich issue, it’s not just a Langford issue. Ultimately trees don’t care much about municipal boundaries. They’re all part of watersheds that start higher up. The trees higher up in those municipalities will have impacts in the municipalities below them, so we need to be engaging in this at a regional level,” Taylor said. He credited Saanich and Victoria for each
CRD tree loss 2005-11 n Saanich lost 378 hectares of tree cover and gained 532.8 ha of impervious surfaces n Langford lost 118 ha of tree cover and gained 183 ha of impervious surfaces n Metchosin lost 1.3 per cent or 66 ha of its tree cover, the lowest percentage of any municipality. Highlands was next best, losing only 1.4 per cent or 46 ha n The municipality of Victoria is the most “paved” – 55 per cent is covered with impervious surfaces
passing ambitious urban forestry strategies in recent years in an effort to curb tree loss. Saanich is also currently going through a public process to update its tree preservation bylaw to protect more trees and enhance the urban forest.
“We know we’re losing tree canopy on private, public, rural and urban lands. We’re losing a percentage across the board inside and outside the urban containment boundary,” said Cory Manton, Saanich’s manager of urban forestry, horticulture and natural areas. “It reinforces the proposed amendments to the tree preservation bylaw so we can stop or reverse this trend.” Taylor hopes other municipalities will follow Saanich and Victoria’s leads. “They need to think how they can protect tree cover and grow trees in areas that are currently untreed,” he said. “And the vast majority of trees in our region occur on private properties. “I hope we begin to realize trees have a value to our community and to our own property. Trees do need to come down for various reasons, but we need to look at our backyards and plant more to steward our landscape as private landowners.” For more information on the tree canopy study or to see the aerial photos, visit hat. bc.ca. kslavin@saanichnews.com
From a dusty court basement to the B.C. Archives Original documents found from significant, notorious court cases Edward Hill News staff
The old court records, handwritten and bound in thick dusty binders, belie the stories they tell – B.C.’s early cases of murder, celebrity intrigue and the aboriginal fight for rights. The B.C. Archives at the Royal B.C. Museum officially took possession Thursday of B.C.’s earliest legal history in the form of ledgers spanning cases from 1897 to 1987. Sixty boxes of documents had been lost in time until a curious court records officer found them in the basement of the Vancouver Law Courts last year. Christine Gergich started her new job as the appellate court records officer in February 2012, and fortunately for the historical record of B.C., she was already a trained archivist when she came across the trove. “When I opened the boxes I noticed the vintage,” Gergich said at the handover ceremony at the museum. “I started looking at the index cards. There are some interesting cases in there. There was a famous murder case – it gave me chills looking at the records.” When found, the books were coated in dust and grime, but much of the tidy pen-

B.C. Archive paper conservator Jean Topham demonstrates a preservation method for aging leather-bound ledgers, in this case 100-year-old court records rescued from the basement of the Vancouver Law Courts. The archive, housed at the Royal B.C. Museum, accepted 60 boxes of documents spanning 1897 to 1987. manship is as clear as the day it was written. Suzanne Anton, Minister of Justice and attorney general of B.C., and Frank Kraemer, executive director of the superior court judiciary, praised Gergich’s efforts to preserve the documents. “It took the keen eye of Christine Gergich to recognize their significance. It was her
initiative to take them out of the basement and have them restored to the archive,” Kraemer said. The 38-year-old Vancouver resident called it “a collaborative effort.” “I’m pleased to be involved with the ministry and the B.C. museum and archives,” she said. “It’s really important the citizens of B.C. have access to this. The volume of
material is significant.” The ledgers emerged from the predecessor of the B.C. Supreme Court, called the “Full Court,” circa 1897 and from the B.C. Court of Appeals which started in 1910. Perhaps the most intriguing documents are “cause books,” which include names of plaintiffs and defendants, summaries of the lawsuit or criminal trial and the judgment handed down. Among the cause books is the delightfully scandalous case of then B.C. premier James Dunsmuir (and builder of Hatley Castle) being sued by his brother’s mistress and his own mother, Joan Dunsmuir, in 1903, over his brother Alexander’s will. On the more legally significant end of the scale, the books outline a B.C. Court of Appeal decision in 1964, which upheld an acquittal of four aboriginal men accused of hunting deer outside hunting season. The acquittal was based on a 1854 agreement between the Nanaimo First Nation and the Hudson’s Bay Co. under James Douglas, and was the first time a B.C. court recognized a Douglas treaty as protecting aboriginal rights. Anton said the sum total of the donation further solidifies that the rule of law closely followed the settlement of B.C. “As the attourney general and a lawyer and former Crown prosecutor I find B.C. legal history fascinating,” Anton said. “What I find most compelling is that B.C. was settled by the rule of law, not by arms, not by force.” editor@saanichnews.com

Hotrodders find a home in Langford Kyle Wells News staff
Langford may soon become the destination of choice for classic car enthusiasts looking for a place to gather on summer Saturday nights. Recently, a casual group of classic car and hotrod owners who had been meeting at Royal Oak Shopping Centre for years on Saturday nights were handed parking tickets by mall management. A News story on the conflict resulted in scores of letters and online protests from readers. Langford Mayor Stew Young, owner of a 1962 Lincoln convertible, offered an open invitation to any car enthusiasts who wanted to come to the West Shore on a Saturday night for an impromptu car show. “We don’t have parking metres. It’s free, come on out,” Young said. “Hopefully it turns into something, that Langford gets a bit known on a Saturday night to come cruise by, find a parking spot and talk to people. Do a bit of an old car social.” This past Saturday (July 27) a few classic car owners returned to Royal Oak plaza, while others decided to take up Young’s offer to find a new home in Langford. Young said about 20 to 30 cars parked along Goldstream Avenue. Larry Zilinsky, owner of a 1932 Ford roadster, said they are once again welcome at Royal Oak but the situation has put a sour taste in some
mouths. Zilinsky said he’ll likely join the others in Langford this coming Saturday. “From the feedback I’m hearing, I’m tending to think more people are just going to start going out to Langford,” Zilinsky said. “I think they’re just fed up with the people here. … Management in general. You sort of figure, if they don’t want us here then why be here?” Royal Oak property manager Victoria Shannon said the mall has received a lot of feedback about the issue, some helpful and some hurtful. Discussions are ongoing with some car clubs, and she is optimistic an agreement will be reached. “Regardless of the negative stuff we’re seeing on Facebook, I think we are actually moving forward and moving towards a resolution,” she said. For now, as long as car owners are respectful and are not parking near Country Grocer, they are being allowed to meet at the mall on Saturdays. “For the most part these are just nice retired guys who are into cars. And those are the demographic that we want at our shopping centres,” Shannon said. “This is a really tough thing and it’s a learning experience, completely, for us. We could have done things better, totally, in hindsight. But there’s trouble on both sides and we’re working really hard to fix that.” kwells@goldstreamgazette.com

CRD seeks alternative to sludge plant at Hartland Landfill option to go to public consultation phase Kyle Wells News staff
Capital Regional District staff will need the rest of the summer to report back on alternatives to a sewage sludge facility at Hartland landfill after a last-minute vote by directors last week. As chair Denise Blackwell tried to wrap up a core area management committee meeting July 24, a late push led by Esquimalt Mayor Barb Desjardins resulted in a significant change to the CRD’s direction. Staff are still moving towards public consultation for the use of the landfill in Saanich as the location for a biosolids energy centre, but Desjardins’ motion means staff will again be required to look for alternative sites. This comes after the CRD abandoned a proposal earlier this month to build the plant on Viewfield Road in Esquimalt. “There likely won’t be anything new to report until September,” said CRD spokesman Andy Orr. “Nothing imminent or urgent is happening on the file until then.” At the committee meeting, Blackwell tried to rule the motion out of order due to time concerns, but enough committee members rallied in its favour to have it brought forward and carried. “I wasn’t trying to block anybody
from speaking,” Blackwell said afterward. “Although as the chair, I have to be conscious of the time and the fact that another meeting is about to take place.” Blackwell disagrees with prolonging the process with another search for an alternative site. “Given what happened in Esquimalt, even if we did find another site that was closer in, I think we would have the same difficulties,” she said. “The plan is the plan. We need to get on with it.” For her part, Desjardins said there was “considerable discomfort” with the committee endorsing Hartland. “The sentiment around the table was quite strong that Hartland is really not an ideal site,” she said. Moving forward with public consultation over Hartland is not the issue, Desjardins added, but having it as the only option is. Desjardins’ concerns with Hartland stem from its distance from the proposed wastewater treatment facility at McLoughlin Point and the potential dangers associated with pumping materials the 18 kilometres to the Saanich site. “There’s a significant risk,” she said. “The whole idea of having two sites so far away is probably not the best use of taxpayers’ money.” Saanich councillor and committee member Judy Brownoff said enough is enough and it’s time to move forward with a plan that has been in the works since 2006. “We had looked at over 16 sites in the region. So it’s not like we weren’t looking,” Brownoff said. “Tell me
If energy is spent looking into anything, she said, it should be gasification – developing technology to use organic waste to produce energy. Hartland was an industry leader for doing a similar process with garbage. reporter@vicnews.com
where a site is. I want a municipality to put up its hand and say ‘You know what? We’ll take that site.’ And that’s just not going to happen.” Issues such as the distance to pump to Hartland have been thoroughly investigated and resolved, Brownoff said.

Communication key in hot rod tiff N
ews readers have flooded our Facebook channels with comments supporting classic car buffs from around the region, who for years have gathered for a regular Saturday social at the Royal Oak Shopping Centre. The fact Robbins Parking specifically ticketed hotrods at the mall led vehicle owners – and most of those who read about the situation – to voice calls of discrimination against a well-behaved group whose presence actually attracted people to the suburban centre on a quiet shopping night. The dispute over parking space came to a head smack in the middle of Greater Victoria’s wildly successful Northwest Deuce Days event, an unfortunate coincidence. But the timing of the ticketing made for terrible optics for the mall’s operators. As with every situation like this, however, there is more than one side to the story. The centre’s property manager pointed out that the “car show,” despite being an informal gathering, has never been an authorized event at the mall and has been a source of concern for some time, from a parking and safety perspective. To us, it sounds like a classic lack of communication between the mall operators and the vehicle owners, many of whom shop regularly at the centre on Saturday evenings and otherwise. In any relationship, when two sides don’t communicate well, assumptions are often made that can dissolve into resentment. In this situation, unwitting merchants at the centre stand to lose business over a dispute in which they have no involvement, and that makes no sense. If they hope to avoid a deterioration in their relationship with certain tenants and customers, the mall’s property managers need to find a way to make this otherwise very positive event work. The car owners – unorganized as they claim to be – need to acknowledge their collective impact on the centre and work with property managers on a compromise solution if they plan to continue gathering there.

The most likely bidder for this work is Seaspan, with shipyards in Esquimalt and North Vancouver. Seaspan is hiring almost 2,000 people to build ships for the Royal Canadian Navy and Coast Guard. It will be flat out to get that done, and the company president can’t yet say if it has the capacity and skilled labour to bid on B.C. Ferries ships too. Seaspan has to operate in the real world of limited resources. So does the NDP, but it’s not clear if they can find a way out of their thicket of special interests and stale economic notions.

Canadian veteran John Radley and Angus Stanfield, president of the Legion’s B.C./ Yukon command, share a laugh at the Lodge at Broadmead in Saanich last Friday after a ceremony marking the first Korean War Veterans Day and the 60th anniversary of the signing of the armistice (which fell on Saturday). Radley, 91, served in the Canadian navy in the Second World War and the Korean War.

Benefits to ferry construction in B.C. Re: Tread carefully with ship contract (Our View, July 26) The good logic regarding B.C. shipbuilding that has been followed by left- and right-wing administrations for decades seems to have been forgotten. All governments would look at foreign bids, then local bids. From the local bids they would subtract the immediate income tax received from shipyard workers, the sales taxes they paid, income taxes paid, etc. While the local bid would often be higher, it was clear that the local bid was the right thing for taxpayers. A recent example of foolishness illustrates well. A new seabus for Vancouver will be built by a Dutch company, because their bid was $25 million. The local bid was $27 million.

Homeowners need awareness of invasives Re: A slow, steady battle against invaders (News, July 19) I would like to acknowledge and thank all of the volunteers and Saanich staff who work to “stem the tide” of invasive plant species in our parks. Despite the generous efforts of many, it needs to be dealt with at its source, namely residents’ backyards and gardens which contain the seed source of many invasive species such as English ivy, English holly, spurge laurel, English hawthorne and Himalayan blackberry. The berries of these invasive species are eaten by birds and distributed into our parks and natural areas. We can all contribute to reducing the presence of invasive species by learning about them and removing them from our gardens. Saanich has a very good brochure online called “Controlling Invasive Species on Your Property.” Without stopping the source of invasive plant seeds, there will continue to be invasive species in our parks and native species will struggle to grow in the understory.

LETTERS Re: Hotrodders furious after targeted ticketing (News, July 26) Twice last year, my wife and I took our classic cars (1969 Cougar and 1974 Fiat) out for a drive. We ended up at Royal Oak Shopping Centre where we met some other auto enthusiasts and spent about two hours there. While we were there, we went into Shopper’s Drug Mart and ended up spending $180. A few weeks later we were there again. We opted to buy a few necessities at Country Grocer to the tune of $140. We perused slowly through every single store in the mall as well. By my receipts, we spent $340 in the fours hours we were there. That’s $85 per hour, while we egregiously hogged a parking space. I hear that $85/hr is not enough, and the Royal Oak mall issues tickets to those attending to their mall in any car prettier than a late model beater. We can easily go elsewhere to spend our money. I just know there’s a group of businesses somewhere that would love to use this opportunity to publicly open their arms to a well behaved group with a high level of disposable income. The new centrally located Uptown maybe? There’s tons of parking there, Kevin and Nicole Beaton Saanich

Consistently voted Best of the City Japanese Village
Family continues the Japanese Village tradition After growing up in the family business, there was little doubt that when the time came, Jessica Sogai would be the one to see Chef the Japanese Village Warren through its next years welcomes as one of Victoria’s you to the favourite restaurants. Japanese That she could share that with her husband, Warren, Village who has been the restaurant’s chef for 12 years, makes it all the sweeter. On its opening in 1975, Jessica’s father first managed, then owned, the Japanese Village, quickly establishing the restaurant as one of the premier establishments of the city’s dining scene. From the start, the Teppan-style steakhouse has delighted diners not only with the delicious Japanese cuisine, but also with the theatrical efforts of each table’s personal chef who cooks and serves the meal right in front of their eyes. For those who prefer a more intimate dining experience, a quiet lunch or dinner is as close as the dining room, or pull up a stool to watch the expert sushi chefs in action at the sushi bar. “We are very passionate about our work here,” Warren says, noting that the freshest fish arrives regularly directly from Japan. Jessica agrees. “We have families who have been coming here since the restaurant opened and are now bringing second and thirdgenerations to experience the creative talents of our chefs, both those working the grill and those behind the sushi bar.” Of course, newcomers are always welcome, and will find much to tempt their palates, whether it’s shrimp or steak grilled to perfection or the restaurant’s famed Tuna Tataki, served with the house special Ponzu sauce. Building on these long-standing favourites, Warren keeps the menu fresh and ready to suit today’s diners as well, Jessica says, pointing to items such as the soy paper-wrapped sushi options for those sensitive to iodine in the seaweed. “I love being able to put new flavours and textures together and see people’s reactions as they find a new favourite,” Warren reflects. Consistently voted Best of the City for Japanese food by the Victoria News readers, the Japanese Village welcomes guests weekdays for lunch and daily for dinner, when steakhouse guests enjoy an expanded show from the talented teppanyaki chefs. And if you’re marking a birthday or other milestone, be sure to ask about their special samurai or geisha celebration, complete with photo!

Pattison donates $5M to Vic hospital Donation for equipment at Jubilee hosptial Daniel Palmer News staff
One of B.C.’s best-known businessmen has pledged the largest donation ever received by the Victoria Hospitals Foundation. On Tuesday, philanthropist Jim Pattison revealed he’ll provide up to $5 million to be used for state-of-the-art equipment
and training at the Royal Jubilee Hospital’s Patient Care Centre. The 500-bed facility serves about 10,000 people every year. “The Patient Care Centre is a health care centerpiece in this community, a model for other facilities around the world and one that I am very proud to support,” Pattison said. To recognize the donation, the facility’s atrium and concourse will be christened with Pattison’s name. “We are deeply grateful for Jim Pattison’s incredible generosity,” said Leslee Farrell, Victoria Hos-
pitals Foundation’s Building Care Together campaign co-chair. The funding campaign now sits at $18 million of its $25-million goal, Farrell said. More than 2,500 people have donated to the Patient Care Centre since the campaign kicked off in 2011. “Now it’s up to all of us in the community to give what we can and match this wonderful gift,” Farrell added.

Island Swimming hits 100 at swim fest Continued from Page A1
Swim fest volunteer Bernard Von Schulmann swims in the Gorge near Tillicum Bridge, an area with few boats. Rocks near the bridge create the phenomenon of a “reverse waterfall” in the middle of the inlet, he said, when the tide is flowing out. “A couple times per year there are massive water outflows. It ramps up to 20 km/h going out, about 7 km/h surging in,” von Schulmann said. “You could swim against it, but I don’t think you’d want to.” During swim fest, organizations like TriStars Training will show their support. The Saanich-based triathlon club doesn’t
“We’re just trying to help change people’s perceptions that the Gorge can’t be swam in.” – Carolyn Gebbie TriStars Training plan to swap Thetis for the Gorge for open water swims, but co-owner Carolyn Gebbie said the waterway gives Victorians another recreation choice. “We’re just trying to help change people’s perceptions that the Gorge can’t be swam in,” she said. Island Swimming will be on hand to celebrate its 100th anniversary – it was born in the
Gorge Waterway during the heyday of 1913. Joanne Forsythe, general manager of Island Swimming, said most of their elite athletes are competing in Spain or Russia, but the young swimmers will take the saltwater plunge, many for the first time. “Most of our swimmers are younger,” Forsythe said. “Our oldest is probably (Olympian) Ryan Cochrane at 25. It’s about making them more aware of the Gorge.” The Gorge Swim Fest is Aug. 11, noon to 4 p.m. at Banfield Park, Gorge Park (Curtis Point) and Esquimalt Gorge Park.

Admirals Road landscaped with marijuana plants Edward Hill News staff
Somebody with a sense of humour and a few marijuana plants to spare engaged in some guerrilla landscaping on Admirals Road over the weekend. Monday morning, crews working on the Saanich portion of Admirals found 26 small, neatly planted marijuana stalks in the earth of a new sidewalk boulevard, between Inlet and Rockwell roads. Saanich parks manager Rae Roer said the pot plants were in paper bags, spaced about one metre apart. Saanich police did some reverse landscaping and seized the plants.

Someone planted 26 marijuana stalks along the boulevard of Admirals Road. Saanich police removed the plants Monday morning. “It is very odd,” Roer said. “I never seen or heard of anything like this before ... I guess it’s someone wanting to make a statement.”
Police aren’t sure when the pot was planted, although one reader told the News via Facebook he noticed them at 10 a.m. Sunday. Saanich police Sgt. Steve Eassie said an officer confirmed the plants were indeed immature marijuana plants, between 12 and 16 inches high. If grown to maturity and sold at the gram level, each plant could have fetched about $900. It wasn’t clear if any stalks had been poached by the public between the weekend and Monday. “The environmental conditions right now are ideal to grow (marijuana), although I certainly haven’t seen it along a public roadway, not in my expe-

A SPLASH of music in the Inner Harbour

ictoria’s Inner Harbour is a busy one. Ferries, airplanes, kayaks, barges and yachts are all familiar sightings on a daily basis. But each summer for the last 24 years, a special barge pulls up, loaded with the Victoria Symphony and plays host to one of North America’s largest outdoor orchestra concerts — the Victoria Symphony Splash. It’s become a tradition. More than 45,000 people flock to the Inner Harbour with their lawn chairs and picnic blankets, scoping out the best vantage point to view the spectacle of music and light, Sunday, Aug. 4. “Symphony Splash speaks more than anything about the sense of spirit and community that we all have, when we have that feeling of joining together with one of the iconic beauties of Victoria, our harbour, to be surrounded by people, by the water, and the music itself expresses that really special atmosphere,” says Victoria Symphony maestra Tania Miller. “The tradition of where everybody sits, the lawn chairs, the food, there’s all these things that you do year after year. I’m most touched by the people. I go out into the audience well before the concert starts and I always meet with the same people who are virtually in the same spot, who have come for the last 20 years since the early days of Symphony Splash and would never consider missing it. It’s those people who are so dedicated to the special weekend, that special concert and people coming together, that really inspires me. It’s for them that this concert is most meaningful.” Miller will conduct the Victoria Symphony in what is sure to be a crowd-pleasing program, with songs by Tchaikovsky, Strauss, Chopin and even one from a young
Symphony SplaSh - Local composer Jared Richardson’s piece Duel of Champions is part of the program for the 24th-annual Victoria Symphony Splash. The event that draws more than 45,000 spectators to the Inner Harbour is Sunday, Aug. 4. Photo by Hugo Wong. Richardson is a graduate of the Victoria Symphony’s Young Composer Program and Spectrum Community school and has had three pieces performed by the Victoria Symphony. Duel of Champions was first performed in a workshop setting in the spring. “It’s great to see my music played by professionals who’ve been studying their instrument for years, who know what they’re doing and to see what they’ll do with my music when you put it in front of them,” says Richardson. “It’s exciting to see something that originated in my brain spread out to a large ensemble of musicians and then distributed to such a large audience. It’s a great honour.” Richardson wrote the piece in January and says it “captures the spirit, excitement and tension of a competitive event.” The Victoria Symphony Splash Family Zone features activities and music for the entire family in the Inner Harbour from 1-4 p.m. The concert Pick up your dog’s droppings so it does not leave starts at 7:30 p.m., and finishes with behind harmful health and environmental impacts.

local composer, Jared Richardson, 19, whose piece Winds of Kananaskis was part of the 2011 Splash program. “His music is so directly exciting and well orchestrated,” says Miller. “From the first read, you get grabbed by his music and it’s really accessible to the Splash audience. He’s a really creative guy.” Richardson’s piece Duel of Champions will be played in the first half of the program.

ADVERTORIAL
If you think serious injuries just “happen,” have a word with yourself. B
ecause they don’t. Often, they’re the direct result of choices we make—or choices we don’t make.
In fact, preventable injuries are the leading cause of death for British Columbians between the ages of one and 44, and claim the lives of more children in the province than all other causes combined.
We want to get you thinking about risk and consequences. Every day, more than 1,100 British Columbians are injured seriously enough by predictable and preventable injuries to
require medical attention. Of these, four die, 90 are hospitalized and some 26 are left partially or totally disabled. These injuries devastate lives. They also place an enormous burden on our health care system: at over $4 billion a year, the care and rehabilitation of victims of preventable injuries is one of the most significant costs to our province. —It’s time for this to change—
Who we are The Community Against Preventable Injuries Association (Preventable) is a community of companies, organizations and individuals that have come together to address this ongoing tragedy, and the incredible
physical, emotional and financial toll it takes on our province. We are a registered non-profit organization, governed by a board of directors that represents organizations including TELUS, Pacific Blue Cross, London Drugs, Justice Institute of BC, WorkSafeBC and the BC Ministry of Labour. Our work is made possible through the financial and in-kind support of over 80 companies and organizations.
What we’re doing We’ve invested considerable resources to develop a provincewide, multi-year strategy. Guided by research and best practices, we’ve developed an approach that we hope will help British Columbians connect the dots between their current attitudes and their current behaviour; between their understanding of the inherent risks and the burden of preventable injuries in the province.
By staging provocative, unexOur goal is simple: to change pected events in unexpected the way British Columbians think about preventable inju- places, we want to cut through ries. By raising awareness, the noise and get British starting dialogue, and trans- Columbians thinking about risk and consequences. We forming social attitudes, we want to challenge the idea that want to significantly reduce serious injuries only happen to both the number and severity of preventable injuries in BC. “other people.” We want to speak
to that little part of you—that little voice inside your head— that knows that sometimes, bad things do happen.
We need your help The individuals, corporations and organizations that have joined our community share a concern about this growing epidemic. They also share a conviction that the situation can and must change. We invite all British Columbians to join Preventable and work with us to create a culture where we all look out for each other. Together we can reduce the burden of preventable injuries in BC. Join us. Visit preventable.ca.

Eagles walk off as B.C. champions Sixth-place Victoria Eagles surge to BCPBL championship Travis Paterson News staff
Vinny Martin’s clutch hit won the Victoria Eagles its first B.C. Premier Baseball League championship on Sunday, 3-2 over the Nanaimo Pirates in Abbotsford. It was the moment kids dream about. The Eagles were down 2-1, the bases were loaded and there were two out. Martin stepped into the batters box to face Pirates closer Luke Skingle in the bottom of the seventh, the final inning. “We were really nervous but I knew (Martin) was going to get a hit,” said Brandon Feldman, who pitched the top of the seventh. “Martin is a great curveball hitter and (Skingle) throws a good curveball. Once Martin had two strikes on him, I knew the curveball was coming and he hit it to left field (to win the game).” Mitch Hawkins, Ben Goertzen and Kyle Murai singled ahead of Mar-
tin. Feldman had a pretty good view as he watched from the on-deck circle. He would have batted next if Martin had reached but only scored one, but Goertzen wheeled in from second base to win the game. The championship win was still sinking in for Feldman when he woke up on Monday, only to find out he had been voted by the BCPBL coaches as the regular season MVP for hitting .439 with 54 hits, three home runs, 35 runs batted in and a .507 on base percentage (OBP). “I had no idea I was MVP until I woke up today,” he said Monday. It’s the latest of Feldman’s trophy haul, which includes the B.C. championship as well as the top hitter award from the BCPBL playoffs, where he led with nine hits for a .429 average, five RBI and a .500 OBP. Feldman also hit one of the only two home runs in the playoffs, a solo shot which spurred the Eagles to a four-run rally in the third

the win. The Eagles were shutout by Vancouver Cannons pitcher Brandon Marklund in Game 2 on Saturday, but
bounced back later that day to win Game 3 over the host Abbotsford Cardinals on the shoulders of Riley Edwards’ complete-game shutout with seven strikeouts. It set up an unthinkable all-Island final, with the sixth-place Eagles facing the seventh-place Pirates. “It was kind of expected of ourselves to be in the top four (of the regular season) but we missed it with a bad stretch for the last six games,” said first-year Eagles manager Anthony Pluta. Pitcher Riley Edmonds was named top pitcher of the playoffs and Martin was named MVP of the final for hitting in all three Eagles runs. Martin allowed Zane Takhar to score in the sixth inning on a sacrifice fly. “This is a team which is only four years old. It had never won a playoff game and only made it to the playoffs for the first time last year,” Pluta said. “The turning point” was the opening round, when the Eagles took down the second-place North Shore Twins in the best-of-three series, Pluta said. The Eagles shocked the
Twins with an eight-run rally in the second inning of the first game and won 12-7. The Twins took Game Two 8-2 and went up 6-1 in the first inning against Edmunds in Game 3. “I told Edmunds even big leaguers give up five-spots in the first inning then settle down to pitch a complete game. He went four scoreless innings and we scored runs every inning until the seventh to hang on for the (9-7) win,” Pluta said. Feldman and Eagles pitcher Brett Hull are headed to Otero Junior College in Colorado in three weeks, while Martin will join Eagles teammate Eric Hegadoren at the University of B.C., as seven Eagles in all are graduating on to play college baseball this year. Feldman and Martin were both named to the BCPBL all-conference first team as infielders, with Victoria Mariners pitcher Colton Wood. Mariners Jesse Mycock (outfield) and Chris Fouger (utility) were named to the all-conference second team. Mariners pitcher Dan Philips was honoured for throwing a no-hitter this year. sports@vicnews.com

They’ve won it before and now Lanny Burrows and Sean Murphy would like to taste the B.C., and national championship, one more time. The two are part of the Victoria Gorilla Mortgage Mavericks hosting the B.C. men’s senior A baseball championships at Lambrick Park from Friday (Aug. 2) to Monday. “The provinicials, and nationals, are the ultimate tournaments and are what we play for,” said Burrows, the second baseman from the 2008 national champion Victoria Mavericks. After 15 years in the league Burrows would like another go at nationals. Burrows was part of the 2011 provincial champion Mavericks that came up short at the 2012

Longtime Mavericks league baseball players Sean Murphy and Lanny Burrows are chasing another provincial senior A men’s baseball championship with the Mavericks at Lambrick Park this weekend. nationals in Prince George. “If we can win provincials this weekend we can take a trip to nationals in Newfoundland (for 2014), and we’re pretty excited about that.” The Mavericks are entering two teams to this weekend’s
provincials, all of them made up from players in the fiveteam summer league. Don’t worry about the hunger level, these guys have all played college and/or pro ball, Burrows said. “We’ve got a lot of new
blood this time around from previous provincial winners.” Amongst the new guys are coach Aaron Bonner, a veteran catcher of the league who will lead the Mavericks 1, while another Mavericks league veteran, Kevin Seginowich, will coach the Mavericks 2. One of the most welcome additions is pitcher Jason Gibson, a left-hander home from Louisana’s McNeese State University. “Gibson will be a welcome addition, you need to have great pitc,” Burrows said. The Yates St. Taphouse Beer Garden will be open Friday afternoon and all weekend between the two Lambrick Park fields. Admission to the games is free. Mavericks 2 play Friday and Saturday at 3 p.m. and Sunday at noon. The Mavericks 1 play Friday and Saturday at 6 p.m., and Sunday at3 p.m. Semifinals are 6 p.m. Sunday. The final is 9:30 a.m. on Monday.

Maple Leafs off to World Games

Tigers on the floor Ryan Sheridan, left, Nolan Dalep and Angus Connorton of the pee wee A1 Saanich Tigers were selected to Team B.C. and will represent at the 2013 Pee Wee National box lacrosse Championships in Whitby, Ont., Aug. 4 to 10. Over the weekend, Juan de Fuca’s A1 and A2 teams lost in the bronze medal games of the midget provincials in Port Coquitlam.
It’s been a busy summer for Justin Douglas and Lucas Hammond. The two youngsters have been named to the Canadian Maple Leafs for the World Games in Columbia, July 25 to Aug. 4. The tournament, which started in 1981 for sports events formerly or never having been part of the Olympics, includes rugby sevens for now, though it obviously won’t when the sport debuts in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for the 2016 Summer Olympics. Canada’s entry is the Maple Leafs, a development roster with a mix of new and veteran players from the Canadian RWC sevens squad, which won the plate trophy (ninth overall) at the 2013 Rugby World Cup Sevens tournament in Moscow last month. Douglas and Hammond are two
of the three returning players from the RWC sevens and are also part of six Maple Leafs who helped Canada’s men’s under-20 to second at the Junior World Trophy Championship in Chile two months ago. Hammond moved to Victoria from Ontario to play for the Castaway Wanderers while Justin Douglas is part of the upstart Abbotsford Rugby club. The other returning player from the RWC sevens is centre Mike Fuailefau of CW. The Maple Leafs warmed up over the weekend by winning the Burnaby Lake Sevens tournament, defeating Burnaby 12-7 in the final. The World Games rugby tournament runs today (Aug. 1) through Friday as Canada face Group A opponents Hong Kong, Colombia and South Africa. sports@vicnews.com

B.C. Ferries has received approval to construct three new medium-sized vessels, and the B.C. government is leaving it up to the corporation to decide where they are built. “Certainly we’d be very supportive of the ships being built in British Columbia,” Transportation Minister Todd Stone said last Tuesday. “Government does not have the purview to dictate to B.C. Ferries who can and cannot participate in their procurement process. That’s internal to B.C. Ferries.” B.C. Ferry Commissioner Gord Macatee announced approval Tuesday to replace two old ferries scheduled for retirement in 2016. The 48-year-old Queen of Burnaby serves the Comox-to-Powell River run, and the 49-year-old Queen of Nanaimo sails on the Tsawwassen-Gulf Islands circuit. B.C. Ferries announced Tuesday it will invite qualified bids for two replacement ships with capacity for up to 145 vehicles and 600 passengers. A third with room for 125 vehicles and 600 passengers will be used for peak-season service on the Gulf Islands run and replacement duty when the other two are undergoing maintenance. Brian Carter, president of Seaspan Shipyards, which operates Victoria Shipyards in Esquimalt and two facilities in North Vancouver, called the announcement “great news for B.C. Ferries and great news for the overall marine industry in the region.” Seaspan is currently five months into design work, with construction due to start next spring or summer, on a contract to build vessels for the
Royal Canadian Navy and Canadian Coast Guard. The company will assess its capacity to take on such a B.C. Ferries contract once it determines the specifics of the request, Carter said. In terms of competing against foreign firms, he said the federal shipbuilding program is giving the company and the B.C. industry in general more competitive capabilities every day. “True efficiencies [will be] gained once we start constructing vessels.” Qualified Canadian and international shipyards will be invited to bid, with a contract to be awarded by January 2014. B.C. Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan said the focus is on cost savings and
standardization of vessels, many of which now have different deck heights and dock requirements. The last major contract was for three Coastal-class ferries, completed by a German shipyard in 2007 and 2008. They now serve the main Vancouver Island runs. Corrigan said B.C. Ferries will examine whether new ships can be run on liquefied natural gas instead of diesel. That increases the construction cost, but fuel savings are projected to pay for themselves in as little as eight years. While Seaspan has never built an LNG powered vessel, Carter said the manufacture of LNG equipment would likely take place off site. – with files from Don Descoteau

Steel shortage not hitting Blue Bridge replacement - yet A North American steel shortage affecting the completion date of the Craigflower Bridge isn't causing delays on the Johnson Street Bridge replacement project, according to city officials. PCL Constructors is sourcing steel for its $10-million lift span from China, having locked in a price at the end of 2012, said Katie Josephson, City of Victoria spokeswoman. However, PCL still needs to find steel for the pile caissons, reinforcing and other elements from a North American producer. The Johnson Street bridge is being replaced at a cost of $92.8 million and is scheduled for completion in late 2015. dpalmer@vicnews.com
