Council heads ‘back to school’ on container issue www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRivermirror.com
City plans to consult local businesses Kristen Douglas
Campbell RiveR miRRoR
Shipping containers are here to stay – for now. Council held off on making a decision Tuesday night on a proposed bylaw that would ban the long-term use of shipping containers on commercial and residential properties. On July 23, Coun. Ron
Kerr told a packed public hearing that he felt the bylaw was crafted by city staff without consulting business owners, many of whom use the containers on their property for storage. Kerr proposed at Tuesday’s council meeting, that council refer the bylaw to the city’s two public commissions and invite the business community to attend to get their input. Kerr’s motion was unanimously passed by council. “I believe we need more education on this issue, more community
input,” Kerr said. “The reason I’m recommending it be put forward to both committees is it affects the whole community.” Coun. Claire Moglove agreed. “With an issue like this that is somewhat divisive in the community, it would be very wise to get the business community involved,” she said. The proposed bylaw, which would restrict shipping containers to industrial zoned properties only, has been controversial since it was first unveiled by city
staff in response to complaints about the aesthetics of the containers. At a public hearing, 17 people spoke against the bylaw and one spoke in favour. Several business owners said they use the containers because it’s cheaper and faster than building a storage shed. Kermit Dahl, owner of Associated Tire in Campbellton, has his container hidden behind his shop on Highway 19A, out of view of the street and uses it store customers’ tires because space is tight.
Rose Harbour: Meeting needs Continued from Pg. 1
Each suite comes with a living room area, a kitchen, and a bed. Tenants fill the suites with their own furniture and purchase and cook their own food. They also pay rent, based on their income. Most of the residents are low-income or on social assistance so to help make ends meet, staff at Rose Habour have instituted a barter program. How it works is if residents volunteer to clean or do other chores around the facility, they receive a chip which can be used to pay for the Community Kitchen program. Typically, a fee is charged to participate in Community Kitchen – a group cooking session which provides food for participating tenants to take home with them. Rose Harbour also offers walking and stretching groups, morning meditation, yoga and exercise classes as well as social programs like playing cards. There are also support workers for the residents to work with to help them overcome their struggles and to teach them how to become good tenants. “For the tenants for Rose Harbour we have three support workers who provide support services individually,” Puetz said. “Each woman who lives here works with one support worker and they work out a plan as to what they want to achieve here.” Each resident starts with a six-month contract and once the period is up, residents can choose to renew their
tenancy or leave Rose Harbour to pursue more long-term housing. Beyond the Transition Society support, administrative, and outreach staff, Rose Harbour also houses the offices of the Women’s Centre on the main floor. The residential units are on the top floors. On the roof are panels for a solar-powered
water heating system. “It’s an energy-efficient building,” Puetz said. “We’ve applied for LEED certification. It’s built with excellent insulation. As well, it was built with products that are environmentally friendly. I think it’s really quite exciting to have something like that.” Rose Harbour, a $6.4 million facility, is a joint
project between BC Housing and the city. The province provided $6 million for construction and will provide an annual operating subsidy. The city donated the land, valued at $431,072. An official grand opening is scheduled for midOctober. See a slideshow of Rose Harbour at www.campbellrivermirror.com

Steve Daigle of Daigle Welding and Marine uses sea cans to store dangerous goods, including flammable materials that he’s not legally permitted to store inside his shop. Coun. Andy Adams recommended Tuesday that the city engage the business community through a series of meeting or open houses to try to find a solution. That
was also approved by council. Adams said that while the proposed bylaw may not be popular with everybody, it was a solution to a problem city staff were facing. “I want to acknowledge that staff aren’t just making things up,” he said. “They’re responding to complaints they’ve received and trying to
proactively come up with a solution.” The proposed bylaw will go before the city’s Community Services, Recreation and Culture Commission as well as the Advisory Planning and Environment Commission. Each commission is made up of nine members of the public and three councillors.

Drive Smart BC Haven’t You Got Anything Better To Do? “Haven’t you got anything better to do?” This was a question that I was asked often during my service as a constable in traffic law enforcement. I’m sure some of the drivers were just trying to needle me a bit in return for the ticket but most of them appeared to feel that sliding through a stop sign or doing a few kilometers per hour over the speed limit was trivial and should be ignored.
2x14 Tyee Chev Drive Safe When you disobey the traffic rules over and over again and nothing bad happens it is easy to believe that there is no risk in those actions. If there is no risk then it is acceptable behaviour and may be considered normal. Some drivers leave it at that and some push their boundaries until they have pushed too far. The result in both cases is an increased risk of collision.
Spending any amount of time in traffic law enforcement soon teaches you that what drivers often consider to be a trivial violation will eventually result in some horrendous consequences. You experience this directly with every serious collision that you are called on to investigate. There is no doubt in my mind that this experience caused me to write a ticket when the driver was expecting a warning. My job was to change the behaviour of the motoring public to conform to the traffic rules. I used many tools to attempt this including a web site, newspaper articles, radio spots, group talks and yes, warnings and tickets. After this if you still chose to go your own way then my response to this query should be “No, I’ve already tried by other means and haven’t gotten through to you. Sign here please.” The author is a retired constable with many years of traffic law enforcement experience. To comment or learn more please visit www. drivesmartbc.ca. Cst. Tim Schewe (Rtd.)

Summer Clean Up Car or Truck Package from
Frasher sockeye run, water levels still low Tom FleTcher BLACk PRESS
Commercial and sport sockeye fishing remained closed on the Fraser River system this week, as the Pacific Salmon Commission reported a lower than expected return of fish in what was already expected to be a poor return year. Based on the latest test fisheries, the commission’s Fraser River Panel upgraded its forecast of early summer-run sockeye from 400,000 to 452,000 fish. The following summer run “is either lower than forecast or their migration timing is much later than expected,” the joint Canada-U.S. panel reported this week. The proportion of late-
run sockeye through ocean approach areas has increased in recent days. The late run is expected to be dominated by Birkinhead, Weaver and Late Shuswap sockeye, with some from the Portage and Cultus Lake systems. Water level and temperature in the Fraser system is another concern, after a dry early summer. As of Aug. 5, Fraser River water discharge at Hope was 26 per cent lower than average for that date. The temperature was 20.5 degrees, 2.8 degrees higher than average, a condition that would risk high prespawning death if it continues. The 2013 run is the next in the four-year
sockeye life cycle after the disastrous 2009 run, which was expected to see 10 million return. After only one million came back, the federal government appointed Justice Bruce Cohen to head a commission of inquiry on the state of Fraser sockeye. As the inquiry was hearing testimony, the 2010 run came in at an unusually high 35 million fish, reflecting the complexity of the system that sustains Pacific salmon. The C ohen commission found overall declines in most west coast rivers starting in the late 1980s, from Washington state to the Fraser, Skeena and Nass in B.C., Yukon’s Klukshu and Alaska’s Alsek River.

Killers lose their appeal www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
Man died after being stomped on Paul Rudan
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The B.C. Court of Appeal has upheld manslaughter convictions against two Campbell River men who beat and kicked another man to death. On Tuesday, the court ruled against Tyler Pastuck, 26, and Derek Crowther, 23, who were convicted in December 2011 in the death of Christopher Smythe, a 28-year-old fish farmer. “The trial judge made no error in her analysis of the arrests or her analysis of whether to
exclude evidence under. The trial judge’s verdict is reasonable and supported by the evidence,” wrote Justice Elizabeth Bennett of the appellant court. A third man, Jacob L awrence, 20, was charged in connection with Smythe’s death, but he was killed in a June 2011 motorbike accident. On Feb. 27, 2010, Smythe attended a house party at a Rockland Road townhouse which Pastuck was renting. In the early morning hours, neighbours called police after seeing a man being dragged by his ankles and then being “stomped on” by two or three other men. RCMP arrived within minutes of of the call and found Smythe behind the complex, still alive, but
badly beaten. He died three days later from blunt force head injuries. Constable Rob Munroe then spotted Crowther and other party goers standing at an open townhouse window. The Mountie recognized Crowther from past dealings and told him to go to the front door so the officer could speak to him. But Crowther didn’t respond and shut the window. Const. Munro e su r m i s e d t h at Crowther was involved in the assault and moved quickly to the entrance. He then kicked in the front door and, with gun drawn, went upstairs where the partiers had congregated. Crowther was found hiding under a mattress while Pastuck was found

hiding in a closet. Both were covered in mud – it was wet outside – and blood found on both of them was later identified, through DNA analysis, to have belonged to the victim. “The trial judge did not base her decision on identity on the description of the parties in the backyard,” wrote Justice Bennett. “She based her decision primarily on the fact that Mr. Crowther and Mr. Pastuck were covered in Mr. Smythe’s blood.” In January 2012, Pastuck was sentenced to seven years in a federal prison while Crowther received a six-year term. However, their sentences were both reduced by 27 months due to time already served behind bars.

You don't have to have passed out to have suffered a concussion. 3x4 Some people will have obvious symptoms of a concussion, such as passing out or forgetting what happened right before the injury. Others will only experience brief gaps in memory or disorientation. Minor concussions can cause serious problems. Repeated concussions or a severe concussion may lead to long-lasting problems with movement, learning or speech. Because of the small chance of permanent brain problems, it is important to get the right diagnosis and treatment. We can act on your behalf to get you the best medical specialist possible.

Phoenix gets sesismic upgrade As students return to class this September to advance their academic skills, Ecole Phoenix Middle school will also be improving, as construction begins on a seismic upgrade. The upgrade is part of the government’s Seismic Mitigation Program. Originally constructed in 1949, École Phoenix was almost completely rebuilt in 1979 after a fire left only the library intact. In 1999, an addition was constructed. The school is divided into eight blocks, six of which require seismic upgrad-
ing. The Ministry of Education and the Campbell River board of education (SD72) have signed a project agreement to deliver the project at a cost of just under $9 million. Included in the budget is $430,000 provided by the school district to upgrade to a metal roof. “I’m delighted the seismic upgrade will begin at Phoenix,” said board chair Michele Babchuck. “Once completed, the facility will be ready to welcome students for generations to come.” Improvements will
include the removal of hazardous materials, installing exterior concrete shear walls, and inserting reinforcing steel into concrete blocks. With the agreement in hand, the district plans to begin construction this year, with completion expected in December 2014. Construction will be phased, with students accommodated in five portable classrooms.

Our View
These phones aren’t really so smart They’re called smartphones but the way some people use them is anything but smart, giving us all legitimate cause for concern about public safety. A new poll that shows that 64 per cent of adults in B.C. own a smartphone also We say: Smart reveals, more disturbingly, that about 18 phones can per cent of those who do consider themselves “strongly addicted to the device.” control our Predictably, the majority who placed every-day lives themselves in that particular category describe their addiction as “manageable.” It’s a rare addict, after all, who acknowledges his or her addiction — whatever it is — is galloping out of control. That all
changes, of course, when the addict is faced with incontrovertible evidence — usually some severe crisis or tragedy — that calls for an immediate change in behaviour. The question is, should we, as a society, be expected to pay the price of such a crisis or tragedy? Particularly when it’s something like an accident caused by driving without due care and attention? Smartphones offer entertainment and information through a multitude of apps, and they have very practical uses in terms of communication, particularly in emergencies, that have, so far, merely scratched the surface of their potential. But it’s no news they also function as a distraction. According to the recent poll, those who describe themselves as
addicted estimate they spend an average of 2.5 of their waking hours staring at their diminutive keypads and screens. If that 2.5 hours were spent in one block of time, it might be a different matter but it’s spread throughout the day, usually while the users are multi-tasking in some way. We should all be more aware of the imminent dangers such devices present and to make sure that we are actually controlling them — not the other way around. The human animal is flawed and there is always the temptation to make just one short call, or glance at that incoming message. A quick look, a few more words, just this once — who could it hurt? The answer is not only ourselves but many others, too.

SPCA needs to find another space After reading of the SPCA’s hopes of opening an adoption center within the Maritime Heritage Centre, I am angered! This city building in arguably one of the nicest halls to have a gathering take place in, such as a wedding, yet the SPCA wants to ruin this by having barking dogs within the building. I support the SPCA by donating and adopting, and feel that the city should work with them to find a new building to open the adoption centre. I personally have a wedding booked at the museum a year from now and would not be a happy bride if my first dance, father/daughter dance or even just my dinner for that fact was interrupted by continuous barking. I feel in this case the SPCA is being selfish, hopefully the city doesn’t get sucked into this idea. Find a different building!

Government to blame for looming BC Hydro rate hikes Marvin Shaffer
BC Hydro rates are going up. In its rate application hearing before the BC Utilities Commission last year, BC Hydro forecast increases of some 10 per cent a year for five years or more. In 10 years time, rates could be double current levels. That hearing took place prior to the May election and, needless to say, talk of such increases, let alone their implementation, was not allowed. The government capped BC Hydro’s rate increases and the hearing abruptly terminated. Now, post-election, BC Hydro is back to square one: it still has to increase its rates to match its growing expenditures, as well as recover costs that were deferred inappropri-
ately in the past. While the government looked to BC Hydro management and even the NDP administration in the 1990s to blame for the current predicament, the nature and scope of the Liberal government’s intervention in the affairs of BC Hydro over the past decade were unprecedented. First, the government directed BC Hydro to be self-sufficient. BC Hydro could no longer rely on any imports of electricity, even the seasonal surplus hydro and wind routinely available in the Pacific Northwest, to meet its requirements. Nor could BC Hydro recognize the Burrard natural gas-fired thermal plant or the electricity that the province receives under the Columbia River Treaty as sources of energy
that it could use in case of drought or other contingencies. It was widely recognized that self-sufficiency has simply forced BC Hydro to buy or develop more sources of new supply than it needs or could otherwise justify. At the same time, the government severely restricted the sources of supply that BC Hydro could itself develop, directing that new sources be purchased under long term contract with independent power producers (IPPs). The government later legislated that BC Hydro plan to buy IPP power for export, and provide the transmission, back-up and other services needed to create marketable products. BC Hydro’s mandate was no longer to meet its customer needs in a reliable, cost-effective and responsible way. It was to be a vehicle for
the development of a new IPP industry. BC Hydro was also directed to make billions of dollars of new investments, all exempt from the BC Utilities Commission or other independent review, including the now infamous smart meter and Northwest transmission line projects. BC Hydro was told to rush ahead with those projects despite the lack of well-developed business cases or public interest justification, and despite the large amount of priority investments that BC Hydro had to make at the same time to maintain and refurbish its existing facilities. These major changes in direction and arguably the basic mandate of the corporation, contributed greatly to the upward pressure on Continued on 9

blight was turned into a jewel in the crown of the City of Campbell River. Coupled with the Discovery Pier, the Maritime Heritage Centre is one of the centrepieces of downtown Campbell River, something to be
envied by other communities. This is not the place for the SPCA. Through dedication, vision and hard work, we have taken a site of high value, low use and turned it into a site of high value and high use.
Locating the SPCA here, in my view, would not only be regressive, but an affront to those who dedicated themselves to building it. My suggestion is that the SPCA find a more suitable location. I noticed there is a

NEW ARRIVALS FALL VEGGIE STARTERS
Hydro: Changes need to be made losses of over $250 million on BC Hydro in 2014 and over $1 billion in losses over the next four years, based on BC Hydro’s own estimate of the average price of the energy it was forced to purchase and its forecast value in the export market. We cannot undo what has already been done. But changes can and should be made going forward to reduce further pressure on hydro rates. The requirement for self-sufficiency needs
to be completely eliminated. Government should restore BC Hydro’s traditional mandate: to ensure reliable supply in a costeffective and responsible manner. BC Hydro should again be allowed to recognize Burrard as a back-up resource in the event of drought as long as that plant remains in operation. Major new investments, including Site C dam, need to be subject to BC Utilities Commission or other independent review of the ben-

efits and costs they entail. Government must resist exempting them from benefit-cost assessment and independent review. Most importantly, right now, government must ensure there are no major subsidies to LNG plants for BC Hydro energy or services, or to the supply and pricing of electricity for major new mining
and oil and gas loads. The low rates BC Hydro customers have enjoyed are due to the benefit we all share in the low-cost hydro generation BC Hydro developed in the 1960s and ‘70s – its so-called “heritage resources.” A limit must be placed on each customer’s sharing of the benefits of

Late Enrolling Students

Priority will be determined by the date and time the application was received at the school’s main office. If the school is not able to accommodate the student, they will be required to attend a nearby school. Late transfer applicants will not have their application reviewed until September enrolments are confirmed.
Cross-Boundary Transfers
Students with approved cross-boundary requests are to attend their approved school, starting the first week of school. Those who have requested a transfer, but have not yet been approved or are on a wait list, are to attend their present school until they receive information on their request (the latest date of notification is September 6). Late requests may be submitted, in writing with the proper form, but students will be added to the wait list and are to attend their present school until notified. Parents are responsible for providing transportation to and from the school they are applying to.
Returning Late from Vacation?
Students already registered, but returning late from summer vacation must advise their school, in writing, by August 30 to ensure that they are included in the school’s enrolment count. Students not in attendance the first week of school will be withdrawn unless there has been contact with the school.

Kindergarten Students: Gradual Entry
Gradual entry sets students up for success for the rest of their school years as it is designed to ease children into school and allows the teacher opportunity to gather important information about each student to help develop their instructional plan. Schools will advise the parents/ guardians of registered students of their dates and times for their gradual entry days. All Kindergarten students will come to school with their parents for at least one hour on September 3. After the first day of school, Kindergarten students will then come to school in small groups, based on a schedule developed by the teacher. All Kindergarten students will be in regular daily attendance no later than Friday, September 13. Should a family wish a longer gradual entry for their child, parents are encouraged to meet with the child’s teacher and the school principal to discuss required adaptations.
There will be no regularly scheduled classes for kindergarten to grade 12 students from September 3 to 6. However, the Continuing Education classroom will be open starting September 3. School-age students and guardians already attending Robron Centre Alternate Programs or the eBlend Home Learning Program will be contacted September 3 to 6 to create their learning plans. Classes for all students in the Alternate Programs (8-12) will begin the following week on September 9. To register for any of the following programs, phone (250) 923-4918 starting August 26.

Wanted: school supplies Council wants SPCA to find a different spot The Campbell River Women’s Centre is accepting donations for the 13th annual School Supply Drive. The project is organized by centre staff and involves the distribution of basic school supplies to children in need. Last year over 400 bags of supplies for students from Kindergar-
ten to Grade 12 were collected and distributed. The drive’s success is due to outstanding support from local businesses, individuals and community organizations, in particular the Altrusa Club, as well as corporate sponsors such as Wal-Mart, Campbell River Common and the
Coastal Community Credit Union. This year supplies will be given out at Campbell River Common mall instead of the Women’s Centre. Anyone wishing to drop off donations should drop them off at the Women’s Centre’s new location in Rose Harbour, at the foot of
the Dogwood Hill. A charitable tax receipt will be made out to all donations in excess of $20. Donations of cash and new school supplies can be dropped off at the Women’s Centre between 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday to Thursday. For more information, call 250-287-3044.

It looks like the SPCA won’t be moving into the Maritime Heritage Centre – its desired location for a new adoption centre – any-
time soon. C ouncil Tues day night passed a motion from Coun. Claire Moglove to have city staff work with the BC SPCA to find a suitable location for an animal adoption centre.

“Implicit in my motion, is that I do not believe the Maritime Heritage Centre is an appropriate location for an animal education and or adoption centre,” Moglove said. “Howe ve r, I d o believe it would be wonderful to have the SPCA back in Campbell River. I would hope the BC SPCA would continue to work with our staff to find a suitable location for such an operation.” Council unanimously p a s s e d Mo g l o v e’s motion, which leaves the SPCA in a difficult spot. Lorie Chortyk, spokesperson for the BC SPCA, said last week that the Maritime Heritage Centre is a good spot because it’s a venue that attracts tourists and potential homes for the animals. But the city thinks otherwise. Dave Morris, the city’s general manager of facilities and supply, said the existing zoning and facility use agreement for the Maritime Heritage Centre do not permit an animal adoption centre. While council did not consider a re-zoning to permit a shelter, councillors did, however, make changes to its bylaw for animal control – a service which was awarded to Coastal Animal Control over the BC SPCA and which prompted the BC SPCA’s departure from Campbell River. Highlights of the bylaw n Allow the Animal Control Officer to follow up with the owner of a barking dog after receiving a complaint or evidence from just one neighbour. n Allow an Animal Control Officer to designate a dog as vicious. n Reduce the time (and cost) required to keep an impounded animal from five days to three days. n Combine the daily $7.50 impound fee and daily $8 feeding fee into one daily all-inclusive maintenance fee of $15 per day.
It’s all about finding the right bike
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
What kind of bike do I want? The answer depends on what you want to do with the bike. What’s a road bike, mountain bike, hard tail, commuter, hybrid, cyclocross, touring, cruiser, or city bike? I know this is stepping into muddy territory and many people will disagree with me, but here’s my quick summary of the differences. n Road bike: Built and designed primarily for speed. Narrow, smooth large wheels and high-pressure tires, drop handlebars, two or sometimes three front chain rings, and usually 9 or 10 speed rear cogs. Road bikes have a fairly aggressive riding position and can be uncomfortable for people with lower back/ shoulder problems. They are designed only for the smooth road and are usually very light and responsive, mainly built from aluminum and/or carbon fibre. Use for fitness training, racing and serious road riding. n Mountain Bike: A bike designed for offroad. There are many sub-types of mountain bikes. A more upright riding position, big wide knobbly tires for superior grip off road, usually 26” or 29” diameter. Front suspension fork, usually disc brakes on the better bikes and optional rear suspension (dual suspension) with adjustable shock distinguish mountain bikes. Mountain bikes come in various suspension designs and configurations (hard tail, dual suspension) for cross countr y riding, all mountain riding, dirt jumping or downhill riding. Use for off road

recreation and racing. n Hybrid bike: As the name implies, this is a blend of both road and mountain bikes. Again, there are many subtypes of hybrid: commuter, cross, touring and trekking. Usually road-designed frames with 700c tires, but wider and more aggressive tread than road bike tires, designed to withstand rougher and littered surfaces as found in most bike lanes.

Stephen Turple and manager Matt Bruiningwill be tackling the RBC Whistler Granfondo. They have been busy training to take on the 122 kilometre event which takes them from downtown Vancouver to Whistler. The total elevation gain is 1,700 metres which is 100 metre more
than climbing Mount Washington from sea level to the peak. The race is now in its fourth year. There are 7,000 riders with the fastest rider expected to finish in roughly three hours 15 minutes and the slowest in just over nine hours. Mulder and Bruining both come from the Netherlands where cycling is a way of life, and have done this Granfondo several times. Mulder even fractured

her elbow one month ago, but is still determined to ride. As for Applin and Williams, they just started cycling in January. “I started on an indoor trainer and then in April I started cycling on the road,” says Williams. So what makes them want to take on the 122 km ride? They are looking for a challenge, it’s great for fitness and team work, and Applin wants to increase awareness of the RBC Blue Water
Project. RBC has committed to donate $50 million over five years to protect watersheds worldwide. The riders expect to take from 5-7 hours and at the end will be looking forward to a hot shower, a leg massage, hugs from their families and a cold beer, but not necessarily in that order.

Wearing just about everything Maxine Matilpi is “Hygieia and the Circle of Life,” which captured Best Artistic Concept.
Used dryer sheets, wood, plastic bags and even video tape were among the materials stitched, woven and transformed into cool designs at the fourth annual Wearable Fashion Show. The Campbell River Art Gallery was packed Saturday night for the event that featured appies, local wines, the juried fashion show and then a stunning performance by flamenco dancer Maria Christina Guzman who received a standing ovation – her daughter was pretty good too on the dance floor. There were 12 amazing works of art created for the human body in the Wearable Art Show, co-sponsored by Sandy Baker of Re/Max Check Realty and the Gallery. The Best in Show award, sponsored by Something Special Gifts, was voted on by the audience. The award went to Courtenay artist Roberta Ling for her piece “Where’s Art?,” performed by her daughter Tamara Ling. Alert Bay artist Kari Glass and her team of Carole Vosburgh and Sara Burr, won the Best Artistic Concept award, sponsored by Headquarters Hair Studio and Day Spa, for the piece “Hygieia and the Circle of Life,” performed by Maxine Matilpi of Denman Island. The Best Performance Award, sponsored by Mothership Adventures, went to Campbell River’s Beth Miller for her ren-
dition of “Ocean Warrior Princess,” created by artist Jane Ellerington of Hagersville, Ontario. Lastly, the Best Use of Recycled Materials Award, sponsored by the
City of Campbell River and Comox Strathcona Waste Management, went to Courtenay’s Jeff Hartbower for his piece “Venus Probe,” performed by Tessa Tancon
of Campbell River. The show is a fundraiser for the Art Gallery. Look for an upcoming display of Wearable Art pieces in the satellite cases in the lobby.

Actors take over Spirit Square tonight
Spirit Square presents its second annual “Theatre in the Square” show tonight. It’s a night of comedy, melodrama and music, with three productions, all new to the downtown Spirit Square. The big tent will be up with seating for 150, but there’ll still be lots of room for the “lawn chair” folks. All of Campbell River’s talented thespian groups will perform, including Antics Theatre, Shoreline Musical Theatre Society, Raincoast Creative Arts Studio and Rivercity Players. The show begins at 7 p.m. and, thanks to Strathcona Toyota, this great production is free to the public!

Travel With Your Pet the Smart Way Individuals often view their pets as extended members of the family. People want to bring their pets along on vacations or while traveling to visit family and friends. Until recently, it was more difficult to travel with dogs and cats. But as more and more hotel chains recognize the strong connection between people and pets, those chains are growing increasingly flexible in hosting four-legged guests. For those who will be traveling with pets, there is a right and wrong way to do so. Having a plan of action is essential to safeguard the safety and comfort of all involved. Follow these tips to ensure everyone enjoys their R&R as much as possible.
Stock up on supplies.
Establish the travel method and route in advance.

Go online or scour travel maps to determine the best route to your destination.Depending on the length of travel, layovers may be needed to sleep, refuel and simply stretch the legs. Determine which areas will be safe for walking a dog roadside, and look for rest stops with areas to exercise pets. Experimenting with different routes virtually also enables travelers to choose the most direct, most scenic or another route that fits with their travel plans. Some GPS devices can also alert to lodging and traffic conditions.
Much as parents would bring along essentials while traveling with children, the same concept should be applied when traveling with a pet. Be sure to pack food, treats, toys, bedding, and any of the other creature comforts from home. It also may be a Obedience Classes good idea to bring along start September a recent copy of the pet’s immunization records to ensure that he or she is up to date on all shots. Bringing records can also serve as a safeguard if the pet needs to be seen by a veterinarian while away from home.
Contact pet-friendly hotels.

Purchase bottled water.
While on the road, take the time to give pets the opportunity to drink water to stay hydrated. Keep in mind that once a pet grows acclimated to a certain type of water at home, a change in that water may cause temporary digestive upset. To avoid accidents or discomfort, travelers may want to bring water from home or purchase bottled water.

Many hotels allow guests to bring along a pet, provided a security deposit is given. Some may have requirements, such as the dog must be caged at night or when left alone in the room. Some pet-friendly hotels can also recommend restaurants that allow leashed dogs.

Travel safely.
When a cat or dog is riding along in a car, it is always best to have the pet restrained. This protects the animal in the event of an accident and also protects the other occupants of the car from injury. Pet
seatbelts or harnesses can be used. For motorists with SUVs there are pet gates that can be installed to keep the animal secure in the back part of the vehicle. Traveling with pets can be an enjoyable experience if proper
precautions and planning go into the trip. Be sure to heed the requirements of the establishment where the family will be residing, and inquire as to the pet laws of cities, towns and provinces to act in a responsible manner when out exploring.

Competitors will crawl, climb, swim, carry and drag themselves up, over, under, through and around hill and dale. And just when they think there can’t be another hill to climb or pit to drag themselves through…The event runs from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Question: Why is fluoride so important?
Sarah Kenedy 2x4
Congratulations
Sarah Kennedy
on receiving your Bachelor of Science in Nursing Degree.
Chamber china trip Chamber 4x5
Answer: Fluoride has long been a topic of debate and although fluoride use has its critics, the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention consider the introduction of fluoride to improve oral health one of the top 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century.
Dr. Kevin Lathangue
Fluoride has a very unique property in that it can replace Calcium in our enamel. So when our teeth are exposed to acid (which is how decay starts) the acid leaches (pulls) calcium out of our enamel thereby weakening our teeth. Fluoride, when available, replaces the calcium in our enamel and makes our teeth more resistant to acid. So, in essence, fluoride makes our teeth stronger because acid from bacteria won’t be as effective at decaying our teeth. It’s still very important to brush and floss because, even with fluoride replacing our calcium, our teeth are still susceptible to decay. So 2-3 minutes twice a day for brushing and flossing every day is still the Canadian Dental Association recommendation.

Oh, those delightful whiskey jacks The Strathcona Wilderness Institute offers amazing hikes through the alpine.
It has been an amazing summer for hiking in Strathcona Park. The guided hikes and nature programs continue at the Strathcona Park Wilderness Centre at Paradise Meadows. The centre, operated by the non-profit Strathcona Wilderness Institute, is adjacent to Mt. Washington Resort’s Raven Lodge. New this year at the Wilderness Centre is the lecture, “What Happened to the Tsolum?” by Jack Minard of the Tsolum River Restoration Society. The lecture happens this Saturday at 1 p.m. This is a timely topic given the possibilities of increased mining in
the Comox Valley area. Pre-registration is not required for this talk but be aware that there is limited space for the indoor presentation. On Sunday, Julian Brooks guides a hike to Johnston and Panther Lakes. Meet at 8 a.m. at the Wilderness Centre for this strenuous 20-kilometre, eight-hour hike. Pre-registration is required by e-mailing coordinator@strathconapark.org Also on Sunday, at 1 p.m., the institute hosts the return of Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society with presentations on whiskey jacks and owls.
Learn about one of the mountains’ most charismatic residents, the whiskey jack. These inquisitive, year-round birds are fast learners and have a reputation for begging food from
people. Come and learn about what makes these birds so special and how you can help them thrive. Nature walks and hikes will continue into September. For the full schedule visit www.
strathconapark.org For all activities: dress for the weather, wear proper footwear, bring lunch or snacks, water, bug spray and sun protection. No pets unless otherwise noted.

any interest in financing or partnering on the refinery but Black said that’s no surprise. Oil extraction is traditionally more profitable than refining, he said, and the biggest energy firms may not want a new refinery competing against ones they already own. “I understand all that and decided early on I just had to find a way around that and I think I’ve found it.” The $25-billion cost includes roughly $16 billion for the refinery
Besides securing financing, Black said he must secure sites for the refinery and the marine terminal with the Kitselas and Haisla first nations, determine if inland first nations along the proposed pipeline corridor can come on board and to button down formal supply agreements with Canadian oil companies. He said an engineering firm from Calgary has endorsed the alternative refining process. Black reiterated his position that he could build the refinery even if
– more than initially estimated due to a new refining process that promises to emit half as much greenhouse gas – with the rest covering a natural gas pipeline, a fleet of tankers and the cost of the oil pipeline, if necessary.
the Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline project is rejected and instead bring oil via train, but he emphasized pipelines are safer. “I really hope it doesn’t come to that – I really hope we can do the pipeline.”
A pipeline would bring money and benefits for first nations and local communities that wouldn’t come with rail shipments, he added. Oil-on-rail shipments have been growing quickly as a way to get Alberta oil to market, but a pall was cast over the method last month when a runaway train carrying light crude oil exploded and destroyed the heart of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec. Black it’s not clear to him whether there would be a risk of explosion with the rail shipment of diluted oil sands bitumen, but said he would welcome research to address that question. Sending the required oil by rail would add 12 trains per day on the CN Rail line across northern B.C. and Black said that would mean a significant increase in noise and traffic disruption in northern towns.

Jerry Ross
November 3, 1949August 7, 2013 We sadly announce the passing of Jerry Scott of Campbell River General Hospital. He leaves behind his mother Aileen, brother Dan and sister-in-law Teresa. He will be remembered and missed by his good buddies and workmates; Danny, Charlie and Jimmy, along with numerous cousins and friends. In his early years, Jerry enjoyed travels to Mexico and Central America. Jerry worked as a carpenter, fisherman and logger, spending time on Galiano Island and Vancouver before returning to Campbell River to live in 1992. Jerry was an armchair philosopher, original thinker and good story teller; he provided many unique ideas for discussion. He also provided us with many laughs for which we will always be grateful. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

Better late than never as Mood swings for good
Mood Disorder Society of Canada. Their website was not really clear about
that so we did not realize that when we took this on.”
Swanston was disappointed to find out only 10 per cent of the funds
raised through the walk would stay in Campbell River.
But thanks to the big hearts of staff at the Mood Disorders Society,
the group gave 62 per cent of the money raised back to the community. “We finally got the cheque – our delay, not theirs,” Swanston said. “As the Beacon Club assisted us from the start, helping get the word out, provided us with tables, chairs and volunteers and they are a fantastic organization that does so much [helping adults cope with mental or brain health issues], we are giving $3,500 to them and keeping some funds to use for next year’s walk and possibly other initiatives to raise awareness for mental illness and suicide and eliminate the stigma.” Next year’s walk is already scheduled for May 25 and Swanston hopes to double this year’s turnout of 175. Swanston, who’s son Terry took his own life in August, 2010, said she was “grateful so many people showed up and supported the Defeat Depression walk,” having no idea how many people who turn out. Prior to the walk, Swanston had said she would be thrilled if even 50 people showed up.
The new Quadra Island library branch, which opened its doors at Quathiaski Cove just over a year ago, raised a few eyebrows when its first year activity report was reviewed by Rosemary
Bonanno, executive director of Vancouver Island Regional Library. “Quadra’s library usage is almost off the charts,” said Bonanno. “The new branch is a phenomenal hit! Figures
show that the number of library visitors has almost doubled, membership has risen 24 per cent, participation rates in programs have close to tripled, and computers have seen a 175 per cent
increase in use.” Jim Abram, regional director for Quadra Island, expressed his gratitude to the Vancouver Island Regional Library Board for the new library
branch. “We love our new library,” he said. The 3,009 square foot library is more than three times the size of the old branch at Heriot Bay. The library features
an airy and bright, fully accessible community space with large windows and room for more books, CDs, DVDs, newspapers, magazines, and computers. There is also a space for local art.
KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Thwarted temporarily by a technicality, the organizers of the Walk to Defeat Depression recently presented the Campbell River Beacon Club with a cheque from the walk which took place in May. Four local women, Swanston, Barb Kozeletski, Josie Laslo and Lillian Woods – who bonded over the loss of their children – organized the event, which took place in communities across Canada. Campbell River’s event was unique in that it was taken on by individuals rather than an organized non-profit organization, was is the case in most communities. And that’s where the complication lay, Swanston said. “When we decided to organize the walk, we thought most of the funds would stay in Campbell River,” Swanston said. “However, because we were individuals rather than a nonprofit society, the funds we raised were mainly supposed to go to the
New Quadra Island Library gets some rave reviews

Children’s Health has given to Delaware. Delaware is a dropin program that offers young people ages 13-24 a healthy start to the morning, a nutritious breakfast, literacy and pre-employment skill building, and connections to health programs and other services. The program is available five mornings a week and is located in John Howard’s Activity Centre in the Campbell River Community Centre. Laurie Fisher, Children’s Health Community Relations Representative for the North Island, said the foundation is pleased to donate to this program that helps young people who can benefit from the support. “When I met some of the youth they told me about the importance of belonging and having a place to connect. A lot of youth have been able to reengage through this program, learn life skills, and get better connected with services that can help them,” she said. After an initial pilot project and more than one year of solid operation for Delaware, participants are reporting many successes, including a decrease in substance use and improved relationships with family and friends. Respect for each other, respect for the program space, and attending sober are project cornerstones the youth have decided on. A young man who is a regular attendee said he recently resolved a difficult personal issue with the help of the program. He is now living by a quote inspired by this experience: “Commitment is a promise transformed into reality.” Wendy Richardson, John Howard’s executive director, said this grant will make a difference in the lives of many youth. “Delaware helps youth meet basic needs,” she said. “With a nutritious meal to start the day and support with job searches and other needs, young people who attend Delaware have the opportunity to take positive steps in their lives.” John Howard operates Delaware in partnership with many other local organizations that support youth.

Known as one of the best eating salmon in the world, these fish thrive in the cold, pristine waters of Nootka Sound, north of Tofino. The result is a fish that has a healthy store of fats and oils, that cooks up both firm and tender and is prized for its rich, full bodied taste.
