Man wants cops charged By MARGARET SPEIRS A MAN already in a legal battle to reclaim more than $20,000 he says was illegally seized during a raid on his house here in April now wants the officers involved charged. Darrell Genaille says officers used excessive force in executing a search warrant he also says had expired by the time officers entered his 4600 Block Davis Ave. home on April 10. “I would like the RCMP members to face the same charges as everyone. Being on the job does not give them the right to ignore laws that they are to uphold,” says Genaille in a complaint filed with the Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP. In his complaint, Genaille said RCMP came in through the back door of his residence “yelling search warrant and entered with firearms drawn.” He said both he and his girlfriend, Desiree Bolton, complied with orders to lay on the floor. “The RCMP proceeded into the living room pointing their firearms at our children and yelling at our 15-yearold to lay down, at that point Desiree yelled that they were children, and then the male RCMP officer stepped on Desiree's back...” Genaille says in his complaint. It adds that Bolton suffered a sore back as a result. Genaille and Bolton were arrested and taken to the RCMP detachment. Genaille alleges the search warrant was supposed to have been executed between 8:55 pm and 10 pm on April 10 but that officers entered at 10:10

pm, 10 minutes after it expired. The local RCMP detachment has acknowledged Genaille's complaint and has told him it will be reviewed. Information regarding the complaint forms part of court filings by Genaille to reclaim $21,380 in Canadian currency and $100 in American currency seized during the raid. The filings are tied to a court action being undertaken by the provincial government's Civil Forfeiture Office to keep the money authorities believe is connected to the narcotics trade. Terrace RCMP in a release following the April raid on Genaille's house said officers seized drugs, drug paraphernalia, weapons, cell phones, and an amount of money. It said charge recommendations for possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking against a 35-year-old woman from Gitaus and a 40-year-old man from Terrace were forwarded to federal prosecutors. Prosecutors did not approve the charges and provided no specific explanation of their decision. Police then asked the forfeiture office to seize money. The office began a supreme court action to follow through. The forfeiture office is a provincial agency empowered to seize assets including money, cars and houses believed to have been obtained through illegal means. The forfeiture office has applied to the court for the money to be held by the court until it's decided whether the money will be forfeited, which is standard procedure.

Parents asked to pony up for bussing By ANNA KILLEN PARENTS of children enrolled in schools outside of their designated neighbourhood received an unwelcome surprise among the usual notices that came home on the first day of school last week – a letter from the school district demanding $20 a month or $200 a year in or-

der for their child to take a bus. Particularly affected were parents with children attending Ecole Mountainview and Uplands, both located on the bench. The fee, said Coast Mountains School District (CMSD) school superintendent Nancy Wells, is to help balance the school district's budget. Nearly $2.2 million this

year is marked for student transportation costs. “All over the province now there's all sorts of things happening with the cost of bussing because it's so expensive and all of our budgets are so tight,” said Wells. “Some districts have instituted what you call a total fee for service, so if you ride a bus you pay

to ride the bus, period.” She said the school board “did not want to go there,” but decided on implementing a fee for students enrolled outside of their neighbourhood schools instead. “We have kids in the horseshoe that go to Uplands, and we have French immersion students from all over everywhere that go to

Ecole Mountainview,” said Wells. The notice indicates the fee is for “students enrolled in schools outside of their catchment areas,” leading parents of students at Ecole Mountainview, which is French immersion, to argue the school is not a neighbourhood school and that its catchment area is the entire city and surrounding area.

A 93-YEAR-OLD woman in Terrace, B.C. was attempting to help a stranger when she was robbed by the very same stranger. On Thursday, August 29th, at approximately noon, the elderly woman was sitting in the passenger seat of a white Subaru in the parking lot of Service BC on Eby St. when she was approached by a woman asking for two dollars. When she opened her wallet to give her some money, the woman saw cash and reached out to grab it. The elderly woman struggled with her and managed to keep her wallet but not before the thief made off with an amount of cash in $20 bills. The thief is described as a woman of medium build with silvery bushy hair. Anyone with information

Parents asked to pony up But the district regards Ecole Mountainview as a “school of choice”, meaning it is subject to the fee. “The point is we have to pay to take those kids up there,” said Wells. “It gets down to numbers.” And while some criticism has been levelled at the timing of the notice – the first day of school – Wells explained that traditionally all notices regarding fees are issued that day. “We always send out the fee schedules, and anything people are going to have to pay, the day that school starts,” said Wells. “It's a hard one. As I said, there are districts in the province where you pay for any kind of bussing. Our board didn't want to go there, but it's a budget decision and it's tough,” she said. “This board needed to balance the budget. “Every little bit has to add up to the balanced budget. We all

wish we had money enough to balance without doing these kinds of cuts, but the point is that we don't,” said Wells. There's no indication that a student will be left without a bus ride to school if their parents are unable to pay the fee. Wells is urging parents to contact school principals if they have a specific issue. The school district already charges a bus fee for students attend-

ing private schools or schools outside of its jurisdiction. The board bills private schools and post secondary students $250 for part time and $500 for full time students. The provincial francophone school district, which runs Jack Cook school on Terrace’s southside, was billed $1,142 per rider last year because the CMSD provides additional bus for its students.

Gas boss pumped about LNG A4

www.terracestandard.com

NATURAL GAS minister Rich Coleman says he’s approaching the promise of liquefied natural gas (LNG) development in BC with the same optimism that saw him through to a BC Liberal win when others had written off the party during the May provincial election. “I really do think there’s at least three or four, maybe five [LNG plants] that are really dead serious and they are looking at this long term,” Coleman said after making a speech Sept. 5 to nearly 90 people at a Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce luncheon. “There’s three others that if they can find the land base they want they will come through.” Three LNG proposals have surfaced in Kitimat and two in Prince Rupert. Two of the Kitimat ones have

received environmental approval but no project has revealed any signed up customers. But it may not be until the middle of next year and even early in 2015 before northwest businesses hear if energy companies make final investment decisions to proceed with approved projects, said Coleman. “Our message must be that we support that industry,” Coleman told the luncheon attendees at the Bavarian Inn, calling it a “generational opportunity.” “I’ve never seen a better leader to have on a file like this,” he added of premier Christy Clark, who is chair of the cabinet working group on LNG. Coleman said the government is working land use plans for plants and will continue to promote regional training through colleges. He was firm, however, that the province

would itself not commit any money to public infrastructure or construction projects in the region based on speculation.

“Did someone put a shovel in the ground that I didn’t hear about?” he said in reference to requests coming from municipalities

EMPLOYEES HAVE started moving into the Kitsumkalum First Nation’s new health centre. Keys were officially turned over to the first nation Sept. 6 after a final inspection was held with the project management company. “It’s a very nice building,” says Kitsumkalum chief councillor Don Roberts of the structure located just past the village’s administration building. Project management of the 4,423 square foot one-storey facility fell to Vancouver-based Unitech Construction Management with Lu-

bor Trubka Associates Architects handling design and other project responsibilities. Roberts said the new building is badly needed as health centre and other workers are now housed in trailers which have long ago outlived their usefulness. “And they were old when we started using them,” he said of the trailers used for accommodation. In addition to regular health unit staffers, there’ll be space for a visiting dentist and eye specialist. And there will also be office space for the

RCMP’s community policing office. “Right now they’re in the fire hall,” said Roberts of community policing. He said the first nation has been lobbying for a new health centre for years because of the inadequate facilities now in use and the growing Kitsumkalum population. A planned Sept. 18 grand opening has now been postponed so key participants in the building’s construction can be present. The gentle swooping nature of the roof line is meant to resemble a ce-

dar bridge which once spanned the Kalum River Canyon, said Roberts. The building isn’t the first Unitech-managed project in the region, says company construction director Brian Parker. “We are Lower Mainland-based but work all over,” he said listing off the new Kitimat aquatic centre and Northwest Community College’s new Smithers campus building as examples of its northwest presence.

for everything from new pools to museums based on anticipated LNG taxation revenues. Still, Coleman did say local governments

should look at ways of increasing housing options in anticipation of a flood of LNG employment should the industry ever take hold. Coach housing, in which small homes are built on lots already containing large homes, as well as container housing should be considered, he said. He said that B.C. already supplies about 1.8 trillion cubic feet per year to North American markets, and that running at maximum output provincial gas reserves could provide 6 trillion additional cubic feet to the rest of the world for the next 84 years. “That’s the opportunity we face,” said Coleman. He spoke of the negotiations underway between industry and government designed to keep companies interested while at the same time securing the promised benefits for British

Columbians through appropriate taxation. Keystones of the BC Liberal platform during the election campaign were a $100 billion Prosperity Fund and the elimination of government debt. “I can’t tell you what the sweet spot is, even though I do have an idea,” said Coleman, explaining that it has to do with the confidential matter of tax regimes. Canada’s main advantage, Coleman said, is a climate that is 30 per cent cooler than other major competing countries such as Africa, Australia, and the US. This means less energy needs to be expended to further cool the gas to a liquefied state for transportation overseas. “Which is why we have the cleanest and most environmentally friendly LNG industry in the world,” Coleman said.

CHILDREN ARE welcome to take a free book from the ones left at the sharing spot at the Terrace landfill site.

Trash to treasure

Unwanted items can be dropped off at landfills at sharing spot for others who want them By MARGARET SPEIRS IF YOU’VE been to the city landfill recently, you’ll have noticed the assortment of items near the attendant’s hut that have been saved from being discarded. Furniture, sports equipment, toys and books are some of the items that people can leave at no charge for others to take home. Dennis Beaudette, whose company Beaudette Contracting has the contract to take care of the city and Thornhill landfills, says the items are free to anyone who wants them. “If you got some good stuff (unwanted items), put it there and it’s free [for someone else],” he said. There’s also a place to drop

off items at the Thornhill landfill too. There’s plans for a shed there with a roof to protect the items from the rain as couches and chairs can get wet and then be damaged beyond use, he added. Just this month someone dropped off an air compressor. Someone else saw it and started it up. “I said ‘you can have it if you want it’ and he was speechless,” said Beaudette. People drop off the items often because they’re moving and don’t have room for them, he said. And they’re all items that are left at the attendant’s hut – none are salvaged from the dumping area itself. “It it gets into the dump, that’s where it

stays,” said Beaudette. The items can be surprising ones. After Beaudette bought a new drill, someone brought in one that was working but had no battery. “This one is one step higher than the one I bought so I put the other one [at the attendant’s hut],” he said. Some items have been fixed up, for example, a black iron lattice has been painted so its leaves are now orange and red and stand out, making it look brand new. The Beaudettes and their employees have even fixed up the entrance to the Terrace landfill by putting up iron lattice work. It’s been painted blue and is just underneath the landfill hours sign. There’s also a spot

just inside the gate with a bench and planter where everything is recycled except for the mortar. While children are not allowed out of the vehicle once their parents are throwing away garbage, they can be dropped off at the sharing spot and look at the books and any toys that might be there. People even drop off plants that seem to be on their last legs and with a little fertilizer and water, they’re soon looking good as ever. Planters no longer wanted have been dropped off too, including a working fountain that sits dry for now. However, these items are not available and will remain at the attendant’s hut to beautify it.

EDITORIAL

Rising tide IT WAS only natural for Terrace city council members to reel off a wish list (new hospital, new aquatic centre, etc.) when they met with energy minister Bill Bennett last month to discuss potential revenue sharing benefits should a liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry ever take hold in the region. After all, Premier Christy Clark led that charge during the May election campaign with talk of a debtfree B.C. bolstered by a $100 billion prosperity fund. But after listening to council’s wish list, Mr. Bennett was bang on in his assessment. Better to first develop a regional framework involving all local governments so there’s a coherent approach. No one will get everything they want, he added, so it is then a matter of determining what will benefit as many people as possible. That’s easier said than done given the multitude of competing differences among local governments who naturally and correctly have the job of representing their own taxpayers and residents. And creating a cooperative structure that takes in three regional districts and a score of municipal governments (not to mention First Nations who are arguably ahead of local governments in this regard) would be complicated. But if LNG is to be the rising tide that floats all boats, there’s really no choice but to start working on this issue right away. After all, no one wants to be in the boat that swamps.

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI their cube van. Other years, I’ve loaded recycling into my pickup and taken it to the depot by myself, but this year in addition to being four months late I had cleared many years’ worth of outdated reading material. Paper products like books and magazines are especially heavy. In addition, the bulk would never have fitted into my pickup nor would I have had the stamina to load it by myself. Teaming up, I delivered the bundles two at a time to the doorstep, where Kasey dropped several bundles into each of 16 big garbage bags before stowing them neatly

in her van. In 40 minutes we had cleared 80 square feet of floor space I hadn’t seen in months. All of it went except for the items Do Your Part doesn’t accept – dog food bags; glass jars; hardcovers that took muscle to cut off bound books (the covers are not cardboard, but rather some composite material); and big plastic spools from industrial thread. The spools have no recycling code on them. The spools, when screwed to a wall, make excellent tool holders , particularly for electric drills, staple guns, or anything with an electrical cord. The one inch diameter spools protect the cords from injury. Cans needn’t have their ends removed, as I did previous Aprils. Sorting what to keep, what to toss out, and what to pass on to someone who might be able to use it is never easy, quick, or without pangs. By comparison, sorting potatoes is a lark. What looks like just old magazines may hide a gem, perhaps a file folder or note enlivening family history. In my case a heap of Enquirers turned out to be hid-

The VCR awaits delivery to an electronics recycling depot. But delivering castoffs to a recycling depot, landfill, Goodwill, or secondhand store isn’t all seniors may want help with. There’s reaching to fetch things down from high shelves, and equally difficult for some of us, kneeling on the floor to access lowest storage areas; packing small items in boxes or bags for efficient removal; carrying everything to the front door; dusting empty shelves; and tidying up the room afterwards. Not everyone has ample space to safely collect boxes or bundles. Leaving something where it can snag a passing toe can lead to an emergency room visit, or worse, surgery to stabilize a compound fracture. Having extra free space in the house is as exhilarating as I imagine an Oprah spa day to be. I’ll bet my kids are equally relieved so much junk has left the building.

MPs’ wage talks remain secret Dear Sir: This is in response to Andre Carrel’s August 27, 2013 column in The Terrace Standard, “MP Nathan Cullen silent about his wages.” Carrel’s piece bears some timely wisdom about public disclosure of expenses for parliamentarians, and I was pleased to read it in The Terrace Standard. While expense scandals haunt Senators in the red chamber, many

Canadians are rightfully wondering if their MPs in the House are abusing the public purse as well. Canadians are, by now, familiar with the scandals surrounding Senators like Pamela Wallin and Mike Duffy. They’ve also heard about the secretive oversight bodies like the Senate Board of Internal Economy (BOIE), a committee made up of Senators that are sup-

posed to prevent such abuses. However, the Senate board, like its counterpart in the House of which I am currently a member, sits behind closed doors, and it’s these kinds of environments of secrecy where conflicts of interest and systemic abuses are able to thrive. The Senate BOIE’s recent whitewashing of a damning report about Mike Duffy’s abuses of

public money is a perfect example. Under the current system, once they leave the room, members of the BOIE legally cannot comment on what happened inside – not with their colleagues, their staff, or even their own families. When it comes to sensitive legal matters or the security of the Prime Minister, there is good reason for this. But when it comes

to how parliamentarians use public money for travel and housing expenses, the public has every right to know. I think Mr. Carrel expressed the dismay of many Canadians when he asked, “Why can’t discussions and votes on compensation and expense entitlements for parliamentarians proceed in the open?” I fully believe that they should.

Dear Sir: Nine times out of ten, there are dogs running around off leash when I take my children to George Little Park. Owners are unabashedly throwing frisbees and balls for their dogs to fetch, and no one seems to mind. The bylaws state that all dogs must be on leash within the city, with the exception of Ferry Island, so what’s the deal? Each time I approach the owners, I am met with anger and belligerence, as though I am in the wrong for reminding them of the bylaws. I am tired of the “but he’s friendly” excuse. Everyone thinks their dog is friendly until the dog suddenly turns and bites an unsuspecting child. My nephew, in a different town, was bitten in the face by a dog everyone thought was “friendly.” I do not feel comfortable taking my children to the park and will not do so anymore. This situation is ridiculous. I have lived in many different cities and never had to contend with such ignorance. Such backward and uncivilized behaviour is making me question our decision to make Terrace our home. Melina Jacques, Terrace, BC

LNG success depends upon First Nations

iquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is big news in B.C. Premier Christy Clark pretty much brought every media question in the recent election campaign somehow back to LNG as a purported solution to B.C.’s high rates of child poverty, the need for jobs, and, of course, the economy. And while scepticism across the political spectrum in the province greeted Clark’s LNG projections, oil and gas companies and, most crucially, First Nations communities in B.C. are still showing an active interest in prospective LNG projects. The impacts of the LNG projects have both “upstream” impacts – pipelines and the extraction of natural gas by hydraulic fracturing, known as “fracking” – and “downstream” considerations – tankers – that will require effective engagement with First Nations. “Fracking,” especially, is widely opposed by both the general public and First Nations within B.C.

Make no mistake about it: the success of bringing LNG to market is largely in the hands of aboriginal communities. Legal precedent from the Supreme Court of Canada has defined the need for meaningful consultation and engagement with First Nations for resource projects on their traditional territory. And while aboriginal groups, such as the Yinka Dene Alliance, which represents Nadleh Whut’en, Nak’azdli, Takla Lake, Saik’uz, Wet’suwet’en, and Tl’azt’en First Nations, have made their opposition to Enbridge’s Northern Gateway Pipeline clear, these same communities have not made the same definitive statement when it comes to natural gas pipelines and LNG. “If companies engage from an Indigenous values perspective, then there are possibilities for partnerships for LNG,” according to Wayne Drury of Lax Kw’alaams First Nation central to prospective LNG plants in the

g u e s t c o mm e n t

LEE WHITE northwest. Drury made reference to a report on the possible positive and negative impacts of a LNG plant in Timor-Leste to process gas from the offshore Greater Sunrise field for export (Sunrise LNG in Timor-Leste: Dreams, Realities and Challenges by La’o Hamutuk) to illustrate a key point relevant to LNG development. “The [LNG] facility could become an enclave, physically

situated on the coast of TimorLeste, but with few or no jobs for Timorese citizens, no money going into the local community, and indeed no integration at all with the rest of society – neither economically, socially or in terms of infrastructure such as road connections. In short, it could be ‘in’ Timor-Leste, but not ‘for’ TimorLeste. “The worst case scenario is a plant that displaces the local population, impinges on their sacred places and harms the natural environment, and is staffed by foreigners who live in self-contained living quarters near the plant, without any positive interaction with the rest of the country. “It is easy to see that this would cause deep grievances and frustrations in a population that is already struggling with poverty and a history of colonialism and violence.” The litmus for oil and gas companies looking to develop LNG projects in B.C. comes down to how effectively they engage and ultimately partner with

First Nations to create prosperity that goes beyond the lifecycle of a project. LNG projects will have to be developed “for B.C.” and, more specifically, for the aboriginal communities that are directly impacted. The success of the various proposed projects depends on how effectively oil and gas companies engage and partner with Aboriginal stakeholders. Will it be LNG in B.C. or LNG for B.C. and the First Nations? Proper and appropriate consultation and accommodation with First Nations will go a long way to making the projects for B.C., and for the First Nations directly involved.

Coal buyout would cost, warns company vice-president By JOSH MASSEY THE COMPANY that wants to develop a coal mine in an area of northwestern B.C. prized by the Tahltan First Nation for its cultural and food-gathering values is for the first time talking openly about a buyout of its project. But Fortune Minerals vice president Julian Kemp remains convinced the province will allow it to continue collecting environmental and other data in the Klappan area that will lead to an official assessment and eventual approval for its Arctos Anthracite project. “That would have to be a very serious negotiation that would have to be carried out,” Kemp continued, “there has been over a hundred million invested and it’s an asset that a Korean company is now invested in.” Members of the Tahltan First Nation have for years opposed Fortune’s plans and have consistently wanted the area protected from development. That position gained momentum nearly a year ago when another company, Shell, gave up its rights to explore for natural gas in the area in return for $20 million in royal credits from the province to be applied against a water treatment plant the company plans to build in a gas field near Dawson Creek. But Kemp said his company’s proposed coal operation is unlike Shell’s proposal in

terms of cost and risk to the company and that Fortune would “look for significant compensation, if it ever came to that.” The area has cultural and other significance to Tahltan and members of the First Nation have long opposed any development there. What is called the Shared Decision-Making Agreement was signed last March, and Tahltan Central Council president Annita McPhee said last week that communication with provincial government has sought to renew the spirit of the agreement. “They have a team that’s instructed to work on the Klappan and that’s what we did, we signed the Terms of Reference to work together,” McPhee said, adding that the group “has agreed to look at options moving forward for protecting the Klappan.” Last week a blockade was also set up on Ealue Lake Road that leads from Hwy37 North near Iskut into the Klappan Valley where both Fortune and the Tahltan have camps. “This road was repaired so that our people can get to their hunting grounds and go to culture camp and then these guys started their trucks up there,” said McPhee of vehicles headed out to the Fortune camp. “Finally yesterday one of our members blocked the road and said ‘no’,” said McPhee Sept. 4.

Annita McPhee The RCMP set up their own camp between those of the Tahltan and Fortune last month and officers have now moved to the site of the blockade which is closer to Iskut. RCMP media relations officer Lesley Smith said officers have been speaking with both parties and that despite the blockade there have been no arrests. Fortune has been using helicopters to do its work so far, so the blockade has not stopped the environmental work, though it did register an official complaint with the RCMP. In August Tahltan elders and other activists gave Fortune what they called an eviction notice, shortly after which they had a meeting in the valley with Fortune CEO Robin Goad, but no resolution was struck. Soon after that the Tahltan protestors went on drumming marches into the Fortune camp. The blockade is their most recent strategy, and the situation is be-

ginning to look like a repeat of the 2004 blockade where RCMP intervened as a result of court orders and arrested several Tahltan elders. Fortune has held rights to coal deposits in the Klappan for more than a dozen years and last year signed a deal with a South Korean company to advance the project. “The loss of Klappan to us as a company would be devastating. This is our flagship asset,” Kemp said. Shell’s agreement to leave the Klappan didn’t affect it overall as it’s a very large company with multiple projects elsewhere, he added. He said Fortune currently values its Klappan project at more than

$600 million and that during the environmental assessment stage the government will look at the economic forecasts Fortune has made. The company estimates there will be $900 million in federal and provincial tax revenue and $10 billion total revenue over the project’s 20 year lifespan. Kemp said the province will look at those figures and decide that it isn’t feasible to protect the area from all development and that the coal project fits in with a resource extraction strategy for the area. Fortune’s work in the Klappan area is due to wind up at the end of the month. It has hired Tahltan and Gitxsan people to work at its camp location.

SLASH pile at logging site west of Terrace will cure for a year before it is burned.

City-owned company logs just west of town TWO FRESHLY-CUT and visible logging sites west of Terrace, right beside Hwy16 approximately 20 kilometres toward Prince Rupert will be replanted next year. “They’re still a work in progress,” said Kim Haworth, the general manager of the cityowned Terrace Community Forest which had the two blocks logged. He did acknowledge that the two sites, logging on which began last month, are noticeable but said the areas will green up as newly-planted trees begin to take hold. “What you’re going to see is a brand-new forest,” said Haworth in listing the fir, spruce and cedar species that will be planted.

Hemlock will grow there naturally. And there is a slash pile at one location that’s visible that will cure over the next year when it will then be burned, he said. “The visual quality objectives were more than met,” Haworth said of regulations outlining how much of an area can be cut so as to minimize visual impact. In regulatory terms, the visual quality objective for the logging was considered “modification” which means that a maximum 17 per cent of the area can be altered or changed for clear cut harvesting. “At 60 miles an hour, you’re not going to see it for a long time,” said Haworth. One of the blocks runs more

parallel to the highway than the other and a screen was left between the road and the block. In relative terms, the blocks are small – one is 5.2ha and the other 3.7ha. “For the two blocks that’s about 2,500 cubic metres (of wood). About 50 logging trucks, perhaps 60,” he said. “The wood quality is decent. Not a lot of pulp.” One attribute of the two blocks is their closeness to town, making the sale of the wood to Skeena Sawmills attractive. Haworth said an original plan to train Northwest Community College heavy duty equipment operator students at the location did not pan out because the college could not find the money.

NDP MLA off on northeast gas tour SKEENA NDP MLA Robin Austin is on his way to northeastern BC later this month for a first-hand look at that region’s oil and gas industry. Named his party’s natural gas critic following the spring provincial election, Austin said he needs a better understanding of what’s at stake for the province’s potential liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry and its impact on the northwest. “I’m particularly interested in fracking,” said Austin of the use of large amounts of water and chemicals pumped underground to free up natural gas once considered unreachable. It’s this technique, officially called hydraulic fracturing, which has resulted in massive amounts of recoverable natural gas leading to the possibility of a lucrative LNG industry in BC. Austin said he’s looking forward to meeting with industry and other officials as well as farmers concerned with water use. The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, an industry group representing energy companies, is setting up site visits for Austin. And he’s also going to be toured around by Mike Bernier, a former mayor of Dawson Creek, retired Pacific Northern Gas official and newly-elected Liberal MLA for the Peace River South riding. Austin said he appreciates Bernier’s touring offer, saying it represents “cross-party assistance.” “We’re going to need more than partisan politics,” said Austin of the complex issues surrounding the development of an LNG industry. Topping the issues list is the amount of greenhouse gas emissions in the Kitimat area that can be expected by the anticipated construction of at least one small LNG plant and two larger ones. The emissions will come from companies burning their own natural gas to provide the power to freeze or liquefy natural gas bound for Asian markets. “How will the government deal with these

emissions?” asks Austin. What’s need is a study to determine what the Kitimat airshed area can absorb, he said. Austin’s also waiting for the province to come

up with its long-awaited taxation regime, the heart of the government’s plan to create its Prosperity Fund. “[Natural gas minister] Rich Coleman tells us it’s in the works.

Don’t forget the government has also promised a community development fund, a regional resource fund – it was in the [Liberal election] platform. The government’s has a lot of balls

in the air it’s juggling.” Energy companies have said they need to know sooner rather than later what kind of tax the province is contemplating as only then can they factor it into their

investment decisions. One large financial unknown, Austin continued, is the eventual sales price of LNG. Asian customers no longer want to pay a rate that’s tied to the price of

oil – LNG prices in Asia have been four times the rate of what it sells for in North America. Going with Austin is the NDP environment critic, Spencer Chandra Herbert.

Student finds her passion for French THE CITY has its own ambassador for bilingualism who will promote its importance and awareness of it during the next year. Jorden Hendry, 16, went to a forum for bilingualism as one of 30 young people from across the country in Vancouver for a week at the end of August. The forum was put on by the non-profit organization French for the Future and included workshops on the significance of bilingualism, leadership, communication and how the French language affects each of the ambassadors’ communities. “Everyone was excited to be there. I was just proud to be there,” she said. Hendry, who’s been in French immersion since kindergarten, heard about the forum from her French teacher, who suggested she enter so she did just on a whim, she said, adding she was surprised to be chosen from among the thousands of applicants. Two other students were from B.C. but she was the only one from northern B.C., she said. “It was amazing. I had a great time,” she said, adding she found her passion for French while at the forum. It was five days jam-packed with activities and events without a second to spare, she said. The students did a scavenger hunt and stayed on Jericho Beach, which was really beautiful, she said. Close to where they were staying was Maillardville, the first bilingual community, where they were treated to a traditional French dinner and dancing. They discussed how French was used in each person’s community and she learned that

down east, it’s used every day whereas here, she only speaks French in school. “In the east, they use it everyday, with their families, at school and with their friends and here in the west, it’s rare to hear people speak French here,” said Hendry. She said she felt like a bit of an underdog to the places who spoke French a lot. “There’s not the opportunity here to speak French. The only place for me is in class,” she said. “Honestly it was the first time I’ve spoken French five days in a row,” she said about the forum, adding that after she came home, she kept thinking in French. “Right now, I want to get more awareness out of the two official languages,” she said. Bilingualism is important as English and French are the two official languages of Canada and it would be great if people could speak and hear French all across Canada and not just down east, she said. While there, the students were asked where they found their passion for French and Hendry couldn’t think of a time but then during the course of the forum, realized that’s where she found it. One of her ideas to do that is to hold a French connections workshop and inspire people and help them find their passion for French, she said. She’s also planning to hold a coffee house with French music, culture and snacks. No dates are set yet but she’s thinking of the workshop in October and the coffee house in the new year. After she’s done high school and university, Hendry would like to live in a bilingual community.

For the love of BBQ

TERRACE’S REDNECK Kitchen poses with their ribbons at the BBQ on the Bow in Calgary, Alberta.

A LOCAL family took on the barbecue competition in Calgary and finished in third place overall. Local barbecue pit master Bevan Sweeney travelled to Calgary, Alberta to participate in the 21st annual barbecue competition, BBQ on the Bow, which is Canada’s oldest barbecue competition, at the end of August. “The truly great part of this event was that it was all about family, right from Bevan’s mom, to his children, and his brother,” said his partner Laura Letourneau. Bevan and his brother Colby brought humour, enthusiasm and entertainment to the event in their crazy Nova Scotia style. Bevan received the honour of be-

ing asked to cook for the judging class on Aug. 30. Then Bevan and Laura entered chef’s choice, and his brother Colby entered the sauce competition Aug. 31. Bevan and his team entered the competition meats that included brisket, pork butt, ribs, and chicken Sept. 1. The process included being on site overnight and sleeping on a cot for a couple of hours while his brother watched the barbecue. Out of 26 teams, Redneck Kitchen placed third overall, Bevan got third on his pulled pork, fourth on his chicken, sixth for chef’s choice and Colby placed fourth for his sauce.

CHARLYNN TOEWS

Let’s get together we do? We crowd into the staff room, the coffee shop, the smoke hut. Some of us social animals spit, we swear or sweat, yet it seems we just can’t get enough of each other. Then, break over, we are constantly communicating. Talking and emailing and texting and faxing and phoning and facebooking. And any spare time we’ll chat in the hallway, lean on the door-sill, perch on a co-workers’ desk, “How was your weekend? What did you do? Who was there?” At lunch break, mostly I prefer to go home and read a magazine. Sometimes I can’t help going along with the gang if we’re all going to meet at Mr Mikes or BP or if it’s someone’s birthday or anniversary or any reason, really, to all eat together. First we need to discuss if we’re going, where we might go, what

time we should meet. Then, as we arrive, we are greeted: “Hello! You’re here, sit here!” Then we discuss what we’re thinking of ordering, depending on what everyone else might be ordering, and then we talk until the food comes, then we talk about the food, then we talk about leaving, then we all say “Hello!” when we get back to work. Then, workday done, you can go home and read a book, a solitary thing, right? But no! We must join book clubs and talk about the book, maybe after we have discussed where to meet, what to bring, depending on what others are bringing, and then all gather and say, “Hello! You’re here, sit here!” Or kid’s soccer or cub scouts or swimming, and car-pooling and fundraising and raffle sales and, of course, the meetings about fundraising and carpooling and raffle sales. On our free time, people! Bowling teams! Choir practice! Or you talk to some friends about whether you should audition for a play, then you audition, and are accepted, and so you rehearse, first for a few hours not so often with a few people, then more hours and more people, then the whole cast and crew, then more hours spent together, then you invite the whole dang town and 700 people show up all at the same time and say to each other, “Hello! How are you? Where are you sitting?” In the “isolated” farmsteads of southern Manitoba, where I grew up, there was always a hall built in the middle of them. It was for gatherings we simply called “Socials.” Are you going to the Social? Who are you going with? Let’s sit together.

K, everybody back from gallivanting about the countryside? Back from the Lower Mainland, the States, the prairies, overseas, the weddings and family gatherings? Visits vacated, vacations exhausted, holidays over and home again? Good! Let’s get together. We’re such social animals, eh? Modern mothers arrange playdates for infants and toddlers. Parent ‘n’ tot programs are all the rage. When I was a kid, it wasn’t so much a playdate for the children as a kaffee-klatch for the moms. We children would sit under a kitchen table looking at our mothers’ high-heeled clad feet as they stained coffee cups and cigarettes with their red lipstick. They talked, we fought over toys and shared germs. And nowadays, going to work in the mornings, skimming by each other at 30 or 40 or 50km of speed, mere inches away, we gather on highways and streets at about the same time every weekday. We do not veer into each other insanely, we watch out for each other through rear-view mirrors and shoulder checks. We might wave as we pass, or even signal to allow a fellow-motorist to merge in front of us. We patiently wait for a bus then line up to get on and choose our seats in an orderly manner. We bike or walk and do not deliberately knock each other down. I am amazed at how civilized we are. We are all in a hurry to get to our office or shop or worksite, where we gather together for a safety meeting or a training session or a departmental cluster. We make eye contact, we smile, we say, “Good morning!” Then, when it’s break time, what do

First derby bout a smash hit Nightmares may have lost inaugural home game, but say the show of support by the community left them feeling like winners By ANNA KILLEN The North Coast Nightmares’ first home bout was anything but a nightmare. The team may have lost 230133 to Dawson Creek’s Mile Zero Mercy, but Terrace’s roller derby team says the huge outpouring of support from the community had them feeling like winners at the end of the game. “Even though we lost, we didn’t leave the arena feeling down,” said Nightmare Tarea “Dream Warrior” Roberge. “We felt like we won. The turnout and support from Terrace was amazing and blew our minds. It really meant a lot to us to see so many people come out to watch our first home game.”

Ticket sales to Saturday, Aug. 31’s Night of the Living Derby, were close to 1,000 – with the team selling out of tickets early in the night during the team’s warm-up. “We walked out of the dressing room at game time and I remember thinking... Holy crap,” said Roberge, of the crowd. “It was amazing. If I wasn’t in Derby Girl mode, I might have cried!” And while the team may have been at the mercy of Mile Zero Mercy on the scoreboard, first-time players showed noted improvement as the game went on, and the team had a number of standout moments. “One of my favourite moments in the game was Mala Noche’s (aka Leah Malo) 25 point jam, and the grin on her face and the roar

of the crowd,” said Roberge. “We had a few girls on our roster where this was their first game – they did amazing and it was great to see the confidence they gained as skaters. “Our entire team played hard,” she said. “We’ve got the aches to prove it.” And it was Dawson Creek’s first bout – but Roberge said the team benefited from more experienced players hailing from Fort St. John and Prince George. Officials needed to come from abroad, and the team is hoping this high-profile match will help draw more local refs, who the team would train, out of the woodwork and help ensure more frequent games. “We were short two of the required refs to play, but got approv-

al from the head ref Flip the Bird (Tim Bird) to move forward with the game, so we were grateful for that, and their hard work,” she said. “Some of the confusion, missed calls, or ‘bad calls’ were not really their fault, as they did amazing with the ‘man power’ they had … it is difficult to find refs available to travel this far – and also expensive as we pay their travel and lodging.” For spectators unclear of the rules of roller derby, a breakdown of rules, ref signals, player positions, etc. was provided in the event program. “We also did a brief ‘Derby 101’ before the first whistle, where our MC Sam Harling explained things as the girls demo’d a slow motion jam,” she said. But on the off chance the rules

are still hazy, the success of this game means the team will host another bout in the spring, once the ice is off the arena. Until then, team members will be travelling to Prince George in November for the Annual Sk8FEST boot camp and scrimmage and hosting a ‘fresh meet program’ here in Terrace that will run for eight weeks this fall to introduce interested recruits to the sport. “There seems to be a spike in interest since the game and we hope to see a lot of women come out for the program,” she said. And the team is still looking for a practice location heading into the winter, using the tennis courts by the arena weather permitting andhoping to secure a space indoors.

Terrace Mountain bike race returns Sunday After a year-long hiatus, the Terrace Mountain bike race on Flathead is back this Sunday, September 15, and organizers are encouraging riders of all skill levels and ages to take to the loop. Organized by Terrace Off Road Cycling Association (TORCA) and sponsored by McBike, the race travels the Terrace Mountain

bike loop, also known as Flathead, which is the same route the King of the Mountain trail race started using last year. “The trail is admittedly not a ‘ride in the park’,” said TORCA’s Tara Irwin. “It is a challenging loop to race, but great as a ‘ride’, hence the attempt to attract more folks that

might just want to make their way around the trail.” The race is set up as a time trial format with everyone starting two minutes apart, with the faster more experienced racers going last so that everyone can finish around the same time. There will be traditional prizes for first, second and third – but

more colourful prize categories like best costume, heaviest bike, oldest bike, youngest and oldest participant, biggest showing from a family, and even slowest time around the mountain combined with a couple of refurbished cruiser bikes to give away should bring more bodies to the event. “Really we just want to get

people out to ride and have fun and take part in the barbecue to follow,” said Irwin. “Even if folks want to walk parts or just do the first section of the trail, that is fine. If we have enough interest on the day of we can organize a short under age 10 or so race,” she said.

Northmen celebrated, gear up for Gobbler The Terrace Northmen Rugby Club’s season is drawing to a close, with the team hosting its annual awards night two weekends ago and getting set for their final tournament of the year Thanksgiving weekend. At the awards night, and as voted by their teammates, Most Valuable Player went to Jamie Mckinstrie, Most Valuable Back to Tyson Stoochnoff, and Most Valuable Forward to Adam Linteris. Team dedication award went to Ben Soucie, while Rookie of the Year awards went to back John Warcup and forward Josh Dodds. And Most Improved Player went to Mark Scollon. It’s now crunch time heading into the final tournament of the year, the Gobbler tournament in Abbotsford over Thanksgiving weekend. “The tournament is mostly made up of Div. 2 and 3 teams from the Lower Mainland competing so we are planning on making the drive down and seeing how we do. It should be a lot of fun,” said Northmen Evan van Dyk.

Terrace Mountain bike race returns Sunday TORCA didn’t hold the race last year because they wanted to focus their efforts on trail building, but the group is looking forward to its return and anticipates a solid turnout. Other bike races in the area have experienced high numbers this year, and there have been a few changes and new additions to the race circuit.

■■ Sixth Warriors The Sixth Warrior goalie camp was back in Terrace last month, as it has been for the last few years. Coach Justin Foote and his assistant coaches helped 11 aspiring goalies of various levels master the art of netminding during the weeklong course.

im wants to count the number of Chinook salmon in Thomas Creek. Not all of Thomas Creek. Where the logging road crosses it, roughly a kilometre above its confluence with the Clore, there are falls the salmon can’t pass. We pull on our waders. I put a bear banger in the chest pocket of my shirt and hand another to Jim. When he has finished attaching his plastic horn to his vest, I command Oona to come and the three of us walk the short trail to the creek. Three there, says Jim, pointing to the pool immediately upstream. Three large crimson fish hover for a moment in the milky blue water then, when they sense our coming, disappear like souls in fog. It’s high, I observe, looking downstream to where the water clatters over a riffle and piles up against a rock wall to which is pinned a tangle of tree bits. We push our way through the riffle, leaning against our staffs in the knee high water. Many of the rocks under our feet aren’t big enough to withstand disturbance. We kick some free. They clatter downstream. We stop on a shingle mid stream. We both stare downstream. We’re thinking the same thing. I voice it first. If we continue on, we’re going to be forced to travel through the bush. Maybe we should head back and take the Gordie’s

Although it appears there are far fewer fish than that this year, we agree that the height and turbidity of the water affords little more than a glimpse into the current state of affairs. All we can do is give the creek a week to drop and clear, but no more than week. After that the window into the end of their lives will be closed. We push across the creek then make our way past the remnants of Gordie’s cabin. He’d had some bad luck with his cabins. He built his first high above the Copper River overlooking it’s confluence with the Clore and the long glide below it that soon was dubbed the Trapper’s Run, easily the most magnificent steelhead run in the Zymoetz watershed – until the fall flood of 1978 took it out along with the 100-foot high bank that presided over it, and Gordie’s cabin. Gordie sacrificed the view and built his new cabin well above the flood plain. It was more modest than the first, set it in a grove of hemlock, one of which came crashing down smashing the new cabin in two and pinning the unfortunate trapper down until a couple of friends came for a visit several days later.
