COPS focus on local school zones L

abour Day weekend signaled the return of children to school. Drivers need to refocus particularly as it relates to driving with care in school zones. “We all want our children to be safe from harm,” said RCMP Insp. Lyle Gelinas. He added drivers sometimes become complacent during the summer months and develop bad driving habits. “With children returning to school it becomes extremely important to adhere to posted speed limits, coming to full stops at intersections, remembering that pedestrians have priority

at crosswalks, remaining alert and watchful,” said Insp. Gelinas. Campbell River Citizens on Patrol assist the RCMP in Speed Watch and Cell Watch activities. Their involvement enhances public safety awareness. It also raises driver’s awareness by presenting a visual display of their respective speeds. Reading the display board acts as reinforcement for drivers who adhere to posted speed limits and can also act as a wake up call for drivers who exceed the speed limit. In addition motorists talking on their cell phones while driving are reminded that doing so

is not only unlawful but also contributes significantly to pedestrian and motor vehicle accidents. Campbell River Citizens on Patrol Speed Watch members will be focusing their efforts on school zones over the next few weeks. When you see them set up and are passing by why not give them a wave or a thumbs up for their dedication and commitment to public safety. Anyone interested in joining Campbell River Citizens on Patrol is encouraged to contact President Dave Jackson at 250-923-8362 or call your local RCMP Detachment at 250-2866221.

entire generating station and build a 1.8 kilometre tunnel to carry water from John Hart Lake down General Hill to the generators. The Station View Trail was built as a detour around the construction zone and is expected to be decommissioned when the work is completed. But not so fast, say some hikers who really enjoy the new walk and views. It’s also very accessible, in spite of Cardiac Climb. A blind man walked the trail with a friend and so did Colin Bus who uses a walker. “I’m getting there, just hang on,” said Bus with a smile as caught up to the group. Trail Notes: n The total amount of fill material for the 1.7-kilometre Station View Trail was 570 metric tonnes – about 40 dump truck loads. n The Canyon View Trail and Millennium Trail are well-used trail systems with about 75,000 user days of traffic per year. n Since 2007, BC Hydro has been engaging the community to better understand the issues, concerns and recommendations around trail use. In 2008, about 1,700 trail users filled out a comprehensive survey. n The newly named Station View Trail will go inland from the river and around the surge towers to connect back up with the Millennium Trail/Canyon View Trail.

Family Services one-stop-shop for homeless Kristen Douglas

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Campbell River Family Services Society will be tasked with sheltering the homeless this season. The city’s Homelessness Coalition sought out qualified agencies to provide housing services to the city’s homeless and Family Services’ proposal was chosen. Mayor Walter Jakeway said it was a difficult choice for the coalition, which he sits on as a non-voting member. “They received four very good proposals back and of course we can only choose one,”

Jakeway told council at last week’s council meeting. “The members of the coalition research each of the proposals really well and they made a really good choice.” Jakeway said the advantage Family Services had over the others is that “it’s a one-stop shop.” Not only can Family Services provide for an extreme weather shelter but there are services available for the homeless to take advantage of. “The people on the street only need to go to one place and they get deal with whatever issue they’ve got going on,” Jakeway said. “It makes it

very simple for the people on the street – they’ve got a tough enough time in life so to be able to go to one place and get help, I really believe it’s going to work.” Council released to Family Services the $191,600 it received from the Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA) via the Strathcona Regional District which is earmarked for homelessness initiatives. Jakeway said Family Services is looking at a $75,000 just to set up the extreme weather shelter, which needs to start moving forward as soon as possible.

Head-on collision injures two Two drivers were injured in a head-on collision Monday morning in the 3700 block of South Island Highway. The accident occurred around 8:30 a.m., on the bend near Heard Road, just south of the Ocean Grove area. According to Campbell River Fire Chief Ian Baikie, a black pickup truck and an SUV collided head-on, causing extensive damage to both vehicles. Firefighters from both halls responded to the accident and used jaws of life

“We’re at a time crunch, the Extreme Weather Shelter will start October 1 this year if the money’s approved,” Jakeway said. Wendy Tyrer, chair of

the Homelessness Coalition, said the VIHA funds will be enough to set up and operate “the numerous programs” for just over one year.

“In the meantime, Campbell River Family Services Society will be actively applying for additional funding from senior governments and

others, to allow sustained and expanded operation of local homeless services into the future,” Tyrer wrote in a letter to council.

Walk and talk art C

alling all travel, photography and ceramics enthusiasts. Don’t miss the chance to enjoy an artist’s lecture by exhibiting photographer, Jeremy Fokkens, and a walk ‘n’ talk exhibition tour with multi-media artist, Karlie King, on Thursday, Sept. 12 at 7:20 p.m. at the Campbell River Art Gallery. Hailing from Calgary and Mervin, Saskatchewan, these two artists will be on hand in the gallery to give personal insight into their artistic processes and subject matter, and answer any other questions the viewing public may have. As a classically-trained dancer turned professional photographer, Jeremy Fokkens’ photographs focus on human subjects and the natural aesthetics of the body and its surroundings. Having traveled the world in over 55 coun-

tries to date, Fokkens uses his camera as a tool to create a bond with each individual that he photographs. This bond is evident in the striking black and white photographs of the people of Nepal and Bangladesh. “I am curious as to how my subjects live and where they come from,” says Fokkens. This curiosity extends to the imperfections and hardships of life, allowing Fokkens to communicate human stories in a truthful form. Using sharp, stimulating imagery with texture, depth and natural light, Fokkens shares captivating stories that inspire viewers on a social and personal level, while raising awareness of social issues, globalization, and world culture. He uses photography to allow viewers to experience a place and time they might not otherwise encounter. Inspiration, gives visi-

tors a glimpse into the lives and environments of the people of Nepal and Bangladesh, focusing on individual stories that inspire. Meanwhile, Around Home, an exhibition by Saskatchewan artist Karlie King, is a combination of two bodies of ceramic work, Buttons, Baking & the Back Yard and Gatherings. King’s work is determined and inspired by her situation in life, which currently centres around motherhood. The tile pieces reflect the artist’s daily activities – baking, gardening and childcare. King takes the everyday items that surround her – whether they are plants from the garden, baking utensils, or buttons to amuse a busy toddler – to create ceramic tiles which become layered impressions of her life. Complementing the ceramic tiles, King’s other body of work finds

by its current director, Céline Ouellette. Under various directors it has continued a tradition of concerts and competitions, including the National Music Festival. This fall the band will be preparing for a late November concert on the theme of As the River

Flows. New members of any age with some band experience are always welcome, and should contact Céline Ouellette at 923-6844 in advance so she can prepare a folder. There is no audition, and committed players with a wide range of ability and experience enjoy playing in the band.

inspiration in naturallycrafted art forms – the birds’ nests that she observes on her daily walks. King found herself drawn to the perfection of their construction and imagined her own ceramic eggs nestled in the twigs. Gradually, she collected abandoned nests, using them as a foundation for her creative ideas. Beautiful porcelain eggs shine from amidst the natural textures of the nests, combining King’s artistic endeavors with the natural rhythms and textures of everyday life. Be sure to attend Fokkens’s illustrated artist lecture at 7:20 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 12. Follow this informative talk with a walk ‘n’ talk tour with Discovery Gallery artist, Karlie King. Don’t miss the opportunity to meet these visiting artists, hear their stories, and learn their artistic secrets.

Our View

Another year, another dispute With all the busyness of the summer months now over, September is a great time to fall back into a routine. And the provincial government and unions representing teachers and school support staff appear to have their annual routines down pat by now. September, especially since their We say: Province labour disputes seem to be neverand its teachers ending in recent years, is when both sides of the bargaining table argue that need to find a the other party is unco-operative and compromise doesn’t truly have students’ interests at heart. This annual back-and-forth of finger-pointing just tells us neither side truly believes it’s all about the children.

Accusatory bargaining in a public forum does nothing to help the situation we’re faced with, a situation where the kids truly should be the priority. We agree with both sides when they say a deal needs to be reached soon. We agree when they both say that deal has to happen without disrupting students in the classroom. And we agree that education is essential to our kids’ futures, and is essential in growing our economy. But we can’t be teaching our kids to play nice and do good when we aren’t walking the talk ourselves. It’s the worst-kept secret that labour relations of any kind – essential service or not – are self-serving to some extent. The province and the teachers both need to quit

pretending that they’re only fighting for the kids. They need to honestly acknowledge their differences and what they’re fighting for, and find a compromise that isn’t going to negatively impact the goings on in the classroom. Back-to-school season should be a happy, positive experience for everyone. That hasn’t been the case for many years now, and we need to get resolutions soon for the teachers’ and support staff ’s contracts. Otherwise, we’re going to have yet another negative school year that could be severely impacted by two massive labour disputes. Let’s do this for the kids. – Black Press

Sani-station needed

Re: Sani-Station on 17th Ave. We are writing to ask Council to reconsider the closure of the 17th Ave. sani-station. Councillor Kerr stated “I think we’ve heard from the community and they want it shut down”. Council has not heard from the many RV owners in the community who want it to remain open. We commend Coun. Storry as she was the lone opposition and realizes the need for a sani-station. We have used the sani-station for years and have not smelled any odours when we have been there, however, it is obviously a problem for the residents who live near. Christine O’Connor stated, “Every Sunday during the summer the traffic is backed up down the street and a constant rolling of RVs and buses continuously dump their refuse right in front of my home.” That statement indicates there is a need for a sani-station. There must be a solution to satisfy the RVs and buses in keeping a sani-station and also satisfy the residents who are experiencing problems with it. The sani-station could be moved to the airport or to the Norm Wood sewage treatment centre. Coun. Kerr said there are other options but can you imagine the constant RVs lined up on the high-

Mechanical ingenuity of bygone ages on display

Alistair Taylor

Out On A Limb @AlstrT

editor@campbellrivermirror.com

It was a weekend for celebrating bygone ages. On Saturday and Sunday, downtown streets were crawling with old classic cars and on Monday, the museum fired up its old Steam Donkey. Museum publicist Ken Blackburn wonders if people will ever get tired of coming to see the Steam Donkey get turned over for what’s become a Labour Day tradition in Campbell River. but it doesn’t seem they are yet. The museum has to let the donkey run for a while about three times a year in order to keep its steam licence current. The donkey was built in 1913 to be used hauling logs out of clearcuts in logging operations on the coast. It was eventually replaced by larger, more modern

long-line hauling equipment powered by diesel engines. Later, helicopters even came into to play. There’s something about steam engines that gets people all misty-eyed and nostalgic. Goodness knows, steam trains never seem to lose their appeal. The Steam Donkey seems to have some of that magic too. Maybe because it’s a process that’s less mysterious than modern equipment. It’s pretty straightforward: you boil water and force the steam that comes off it into narrow pipes and it pushes wheels, gears and cogs into motion. Once those wheels start turning, you can pretty well push, pull or haul nearly anything. On the Steam Donkey – and I just love that name, by the way – a pulley winds

up a cable which is strung from tall trees or spars cleared of branches. Attached to the cable is a log, freshly cut down and cleared of branches. The donkey hauls away and does the work of tens of men. Maybe they have a mystique because steam engines were the first engines to operate as standalone workhorse – non animal-powered machinery. The steam engine was followed by the gas engine (although, if memory serves me right, electric engines might have come at the same time or even before). And they worked the same way except it was gasoline-fired explosions that forced cogs, wheels and pistons to move. And the classic cars we saw on the weekend bridged the age of steam to the modern engines we see today that are

so complicated you need a computer to diagnose them. A lot of the cars in the North Island Cruisers’ Show ‘n’ Shine on the weekend were vehicles the amateur could still work on. I was never much of a mechanic but when I was young I had friends who liked to take apart engines. Do young people still do that any more? Car engines are so electronic and complicated now. But there’s nothing like polished chrome and shiny metal bodies. My favourite cars were the old ‘55 chevy Bel Air and that kind of car, although I’m also partial to the ‘59 corvette. One of the cooler vehicles at the Show ‘n’ Shine for me was the 1931 BC Forest Service truck. I don’t know why, it’s just something about old classics.

Then there is the facility at Quinsam Crossing which would be suitable but could they handle all the RVs and buses from residents and tourists, being the only suitable facility for many miles? There is one at the Quinsam Campground but in order to use it you must be a camper there and it is closed through the winter.

Web site showcases cultural performers

On Aug. 24, over 300 people enjoyed free music and cultural displays at Campbell River’s All the World Lives Here event at the Spirit Square. A dozen booths showcased different cultures for Campbell Riverites and included nearly every continent. “I was at the Mythbusters booth asking

people to vote for the next ad to go on one of our local city transit buses. With great participation, the winning ad was a photo and quote by Lucilla Grotto, owner of Facile Web & Graphic, stating ‘Immigrants are Campbell River’s window to the larger world, connecting us to global markets.’ Lucilla makes a great point and although immigrants can help connect us to the larger world, the Immigrant Welcome Centre helps connect immigrants within our community,” said Vienna Yeung, Projects Coordinator at the

Immigrant Welcome Centre. The event helped kick off a new database of cultural performers and groups designed to help connect them with the public. As there is currently no online listing outlet for local performers and cultural groups, the Campbell River Community Foundation funded the Immigrant Welcome Centre to start up the database. If your group or performance has a cultural history, whether you are a band, dancer, puppeteer, martial artist, teach tai chi or choir, you can be

a part of this one-stopshop so the public is able to access your group and your services. The listing will be found at www.ImmigrantWelcome.ca which is currently undergoing an extreme makeover and should be ready in the upcoming months. “The community demonstrated the need for this listing as we often get phone calls asking about entertainers. We thought, why not gather ever yone’s information together and put it online in one convenient spot to promote diversity and showcase what our

community has to offer? There is quite an array of entertainers and cultures here, they just need an outlet to promote themselves. We thank the Campbell River Community Foundation for supporting us in this endeavor,” said Rachel Blaney, Executive Director of the Immigrant Welcome Centre. If you would like to sign up, visit www. ImmigrantWelcome.ca for more information or contact Shannon Briggs at 250-830-0171 ext. 810 or email Shannon. Briggs@ImmigrantWelcome.ca.

Have you ever met an ‘average person’? Neither have I. But, for the sake of argument, let’s say you’re the ‘average Canadian’ and you’re getting an inheritance. If so, that inheritance is not likely to be large, to help you make the most of that inheritance, here are some suggestions you may ﬁnd helpful:

Top it up If you have investments held within RRSPs or TFSAs with unused carryforward room, ﬁll it up.

Know Your Relationship Rules In many provinces, gifts and inheritances are exempt in the case of separation or divorce. But – if you invest your inheritance in joint names with your partner or in a family home or cottage, or use the funds to pay down debt on jointly held property and then separate, the assets may become fully sharable. You may want to keep property and other investments separate from other family investments/assets.

Send Your Inheritance To School Contribute to investments held within RESPs to pay for your children’s expensive (and necessary) post-secondary education.

What you do with your inheritance is up to you, but to be sure your decisions ﬁt your unique situation, talk to your legal and professional advisor ﬁrst.

Invest In Your Retirement/Estate Look carefully at such taxadvantage wealth accumulation vehicles such as Corporate Class Mutual Funds (that allow you to switch between different investments without triggering capital gains at the time of the switch) and Permanent Life Insurance (if you need it) which could provide tax-free funds at a critical time or a source of investment income to replace an income that is no longer there.

This column, written and published by Investors Group Financial Services Inc. (in Québec – a Financial Services Firm), presents general information only and is not a solicitation to buy or sell any investments.

should you need the funds before the ‘locked-in’ period expires. Repay Non-Deductible Debt Use some or all of your inheritance to repay debt on which the loan interest is not tax deductible. Start with debt that carries the highest loan interest rate.

MANAGING YOUR MONEY

Understand What You’re Getting Is your inheritance in cash or investments that are liquid? Maybe you’ll be receiving tangible assets such as land, buildings or art that may take time to sell or that you will want to retain. Has the inheritance been bequeathed directly to you or will it be held in a trust that you do not control? Stop And Take Stock Draw up a budget of your immediate income needs and your future income and capital needs based on your goals and dreams. Ensure proper asset allocation – meaning that money you need in the near future should not be placed in an investment that locks it in for a long time or that would be subject to redemption fees

Thomas Jefferson Harris, 19292013, passed away peacefully on the evening of August 27th, in the company of his devoted wife of 62 years, Dorthea, of complications from dementia. Tommy Harris was a homesteader, a farm boy, a lineman, a union man, a husband, a father, a grandfather, a great-grandfather, and, always, a gentleman. Born on August 14, in Tees, Alberta, to Sephas and Gladys Harris, Tommy helped his family forge a homestead and build a community in BCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Peace River County. The little town of Groundbirch still has the log from the Community Hall he helped build with his father and older brothers, and has a Harris Road named after the family. His brothers Stan and Wayne still have farms on Harris Road. His other siblings in the bustling family are Walter (d. 1942), Melvin (d. 1976), Elsie (d. 2011), Catherine, and Kenny (d. 1992). He grew up in the Depression and left the farm early, working his way across BC in logging camps and road crews, wherever he could pick up work, and became a stevedore on the docks of Vancouver, before moving up the coast to Ocean Falls in 1948, where he met the love of his life, Dorthea. They had two children there, Jeff (b. 1953) and Debbie (b. 1955), but an opportunity arose to take up a trade in Kitimat. The new family moved there and had a third child, Randy (b. 1956), and Tommy apprenticed as a lineman, a profession he served to perfection for the rest of his working life, whether it was hiking the lines from Kitimat to Kemano, splicing wires twenty feet up in the teeth of a Southeaster, or just connecting someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s power. In 1968, the family moved to Campbell River, when Tommy took up a job with BC Hydro, retiring after 35 years. Thomas Jefferson Harris was as honest as the day is long, until he had a story to tell. He was a hard worker, a voracious reader, a serious thinker. Blessed with a sweet voice, a deep love of fun, and a fierce competitive drive, even when playing lawn darts, he will be treasured in the hearts of all who knew him. He leaves behind Dorthea, Jeff (wife, Verginia), Debby (husband, Jerry), and Randy (wife, Indira), along with 11 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.

Smashing Canucks demolish Americans in the final go-around After Mother Nature washed away the previous race card, nothing was stopping this past weekend’s annual Canadian American Demolition Derby at Saratoga Speedway. Saturday’s night of the derby saw Team USA take an early lead from qualifying, taking a 208192 point lead into the tire changing competition, which team USA also won, beating team Canada by 13.998 seconds to extend their lead to 228-192 going into the backwards race. Again, it was another victory for Team USA to increase its lead to 253-

20-minute derby saw dead cars everywhere

with extreme hits on every lap, but, once

again, Team USA edged out Canada, beating us

by 12 points going into Sunday. Just the Demolition Derby was scheduled for Sunday, and going into it Canada was at a 73-point disadvantage. After about 10 minutes of demolition, Team Canada was declared the winner of the demolition, and after all the points were added up, Team Canada made an amazing comeback to win by 32 points, re-claiming the title of CanadianAmerican Demolition Derby champions!

Shelagh Germyn will be joined by Bob Wall as the two marathoners run from Nanaimo to Campbell River to support Women For Women.

Shelagh Germyn has put a lot of miles on her running shoes. The Campbell River resident has raced every distance from 5-100 kilometres, including many marathons. She’s run to Victoria for charity. This year, at age 56, she ran the West Coast Trail, but she’s never run 100 miles straight. That will change on Friday, when she and her running partner, Bob Wall of Campbell River,

will complete a non-stop run from Nanaimo to Campbell River. They will start at the Nanaimo Women’s Centre and run all the way to the Carihi Secondary School field in Campbell River to make Saturday’s 9:30 a.m. start for the 10th annual “Women For Women Run.” This trail mix challenge includes 5 km, 10 km and kids’ run in support of the Women for Women Bursary Foundation.

For the past decade, this foundation has helped single mothers attend North Island College. This year the foundation has broadened its support to include the Campbell River Women’s Centre and the New Dawn House. Raised by a single mother herself, Germyn has a deep appreciation of the services these organizations provide to women in need. Germyn and Wall will

Heads-up, drag racing will also be making its last appearance of the year on Saturday, which pleased the fans on its first appearance. Due to the Aug. 24 rain out, the motorcycles have been added on to the racing card on the weekend, which will be their double points championship night. The IMCA Modifieds and the Bomber cars will round out the night of racing.
