Natural gas rates drop

boats gather at river’s edge to take searchers to area where two mushroom pickers are missing.

Huge search mounted By JOSH MASSEY THE LARGEST search and rescue operation undertaken in the area in decades took place over the weekend with more than 100 volunteers showing up to help experts find two lost men. Ike Murray, 26, and Michael Devlin Sabo, 32, who did not return to an agreed upon meeting point in the Lorne Creek area on the north side of the Skeena River Sunday afternoon, Sept. 22. No emergency fires or other signals had been spotted all last week as searching efforts intensified daily. The area the lost men were traversing was bordered by natural boundaries, so volunteers were told to keep in mind that the men might be injured and hidden from easy view. “We are looking for someone lying down or covered up,” said Terrace Search and Rescue’s Dave Jephson, speaking to volunteers in an early morning briefing Sept. 28. In rainy weather described by one volunteer as “wet and miserable,” teams of 7-10 volunteers with a leader assigned to each combed various pre-mapped locations on the north side of the Skeena, 53

kilometres east of Terrace. “At this point they could be hypothermic and too cold to call out for help,” said crew leader Wendy Harder, who was one of several emergency response experts flown in from Vancouver and Kamloops to reinforce the search efforts Sept. 27. Vehicles which shuttled volunteers from Terrace Search and Rescue headquarters on Greig Ave. were parked in a long line down Hwy 16 near the mission’s marshalling site at Princess Lake on property owned by Louise and Hugh Ormerod. From there the groups boarded boats that ferried them across the Skeena to their search areas between Lorne Creek and Fiddler Creek. Swift water rescue crews hiked up the sides of the creeks, sometimes crossing over to check the other side, though with difficulty, with one crew member noting that Lorne Creek had dangerous banks and fast flowing water. There were also reports earlier last week of a mother bear spotted nearby, though by the weekend it had moved out of the area. According to volunteer Dave Mason, the size of the area where the missing pickers had been searching at the time of

their disappearance was daunting. “We had a few dozen volunteers and some big country,” Mason said. “You Google Earth it and it’s just a tiny little part you covered.” Searching began at daylight Sept. 23, and the numbers of volunteers, including friends and family members of the missing men, expanded each day, with 40 volunteers coming out Sept. 26 and 50 on Sept. 27. With the influx of twice that on Saturday, Sept. 28, the challenge became how to organize the huge group safely and efficiently. Crews with the most experience were dispatched first and it took most of the morning to get everyone across. “I just feel that the more people the better and if it was my children I would sure like the help,” said volunteer Christine Malaka that morning. And 20 members of the local Canadian Rangers patrol, volunteers who are part of the Canadian Armed Forces, were charged with searching the perimeter of the grid. Volunteer Michael Bruce said that the searching the woods was challenging in the lower areas because of fallen trees, but that the higher area further up the hill from the waterfront was easier.

NORTHWEST natural gas users are now benefitting from lower rates thanks to a continuing glut of the fuel in North America. Pacific Northern Gas (PNG) dropped the rate it charges for gas as of Oct. 1 as well as the rate it charges to deliver the product. The combined commodity and delivery residential charge is now $14.464 a gigagjoule (GJ), a drop of nearly 10 per cent from the previous combined charge of $16.035 a GJ. The new residential rate applies to the area from Vanderhoof to the coast. There are also price reductions for small commercial customers of PNG. A drop in the price of the gas itself amounting to just over 82 cents a GJ makes up more than half of the overall decrease. But nearly 75 cents a GJ of the combined drop comes from a decision by its regulator, the BC Utilities Commission, to roll back what Pacific Northern Gas is allowed to charge customers to deliver the commodity. The gas utility was permitted an interim rate increase as of Jan. 1 while the utilities commission studied its request for a permanent increase. The roll back applies to the delivery rate from Jan. 1 onward and means Pacific Northern Gas customers will get a credit on their bills between now and the end of October. Pacific Northern Gas official Janet Kennedy said the new delivery charge as of Oct. 1 means a savings to the average residential customer of $18.41 for the last three months of the year. “Based on the expected average consumption of a residential customer of 22.8 GJs for the last quarter of 2013, [the new commodity rate] would result in a decrease in commodity charges of approximately $17 on average per residential customer,” she added. Kennedy also said the new delivery rate as of Oct. 1 is still considered an interim one by the utilities commission and that it continues to study information leading to a permanent rate. “A decision on this proceeding is expected in the first or second quarter of 2014,” she said. By that time, PNG is also expected to have filed information leading to its request for a 2014 delivery rate. PNG passes along the amount it pays for gas from suppliers to its customers. It’s not permitted to any charge to what it pays. Depending upon the price of natural gas being purchased by PNG, the utility applies quarterly to the utilities commission for rate adjustments. On Jan. 1 of this year, for example, the commodity rate being charged by PNG was $3.375 a GJ, less than the rate is now. The new combined rate of $14.464 a GJ does not include PNG’s basic charge applied to customers nor a series of taxes. The provincial Liberal carbon tax alone amounts to an extra $1.49 a GJ. In addition to northwestern B.C., PNG delivers natural gas in the northeastern area of B.C. and propane in the Granisle area.

An rcmp helicopter was used last week in the search for two missing mushroom pickers.

RCMP helicopter joined in on search THE RCMP helicopter that joined the search last week for two missing mushroom pickers came equipped with a device that can pick up heat signatures. It’s called a forward looking infrared (FLIR) camera and can detect infrared radiation, typically called a heat source. The helicopter spent more than eight hours over the search area early in the week and was called back up north where it had been based in the latter part of the week. A civilian helicopter from Lakelse Air was used the first day of the search on Sept. 23.

On the weekend, Focus, a consulting company working on a Trans Canada Pipeline planned natural gas pipeline in the area donated the use of a Lakelse Air helicopter and two of its employees, reported Dave Jephson of Terrace Search and Rescue. The RCMP have had a helicopter up north since late August, part of its presence connected to Tahltan protests of a planned coal mine in the Klappan area. It had already been used this month to fly out an earlier lost mushroom picker and an injured hunter, both up north.

What’s happening at Chances Terrace in October...

DUANE STEELE OCTOBER 17-19 7:30 & 9:00 PM

I have lived and worked a very long time in Terrace. Terrace has something about it like no other place in the world; I believe that wholeheartedly. I see the things people donate to make others lives better, I see the goodness of the community with every donation, with the story yesterday I saw on a friend’s Facebook page about how some gentlemen paid for a young mother’s purchases. In my work I work for others, it’s just what I do I don’t think about it, it’s just me. I light fires under others feet and sometimes under other portions of their anatomy. I do it because I believe in this town, I believe in the people. Not everyone was handed the same playbook when they were born. I try and even the playing field. Thirty some odd years ago they handed me a baby in the hospital – it didn’t come with a manual so I did the best I could, given what I had to work with at the time. At some point I told myself I did a pretty darn good job and I felt good about the child

I raised. Then something happens and everything I’ve done has just shattered. I have never been in this position before. Helpless. There is nothing I can do, nobody I can go to and say fix it, it’s wrong and it needs to be fixed – I am totally and utterly helpless and to say I am a basket case would be an understatement. I’ve been following the stories in the Standard – how many people have been out traipsing through wet underbrush looking for not just my son but Nova’s as well. Some know us, some don’t. This is exactly what I mean about Terrace. It is community. It’s about people. People aren’t doing it for me, they aren’t doing it for my son – they are doing it because it’s the right thing to do. I salute you all as peers. We do what we do in different ways, but we do it for the same reason – because it needs to be done. Win, lose or draw – you were a success. You tried. And for that, I thank you. Carol Sabo is the mother of Michael Devlin Sabo, one of the missing pickers.

■■ Coming down demolition began last week on the front of the Speedee Printers building on Lazelle in preparation for a new look for manager Steve Owens, in photo, and the staff. This year is also the 50th anniversary year for the business.

The DownTown Drive Thru will be closeD Thursday, October 3rd 10:00 a.m. - 10:00 p.m.

Airport totals climb Jazz and Hawkair had the same flight schedules both months. He attributed the increase to a quickened pace of work at Rio Tinto Alcan’s aluminum smelter reconstruction project at Kitimat and to ongoing Northwest Transmission Line work and mine development to the north. Hendry’s predicting September’s passenger number to be even higher because the instrument landing system at the Prince Rupert airport is temporarily out of order. “When they get fog, we get their aircraft,” said Hendry.

The airport doesn’t count passengers arriving on flights diverted from other airports but does count – and charge – those passengers when they leave again. Airlines are now experiencing load factors in the 73 per cent range meaning that for every 100 seats, 73 are filled. “There’s still plenty of room,” said Hendry although noting passengers may not necessarily be able to book on the flights they want. Particularly busy are early morning or late night flights appealing to business travellers. “With the schedules the way they are now,

it’s possible to fly in from the east [to Vancouver] and then up in one day without having to stay [in Vancouver] overnight,” said Hendry. Also proving popular is the Hawkair/Central Mountain service from Terrace to Calgary via Prince George. In the meantime, Hendry says luggage handling and other equipment belonging to WestJet is starting to arrive as that airline prepares to offer Terrace to Vancouver service the latter part of November. It’ll be flying the route twice a day using new Q 400 aircraft.

Hotel, vet zoning passed City council has adopted zoning amendments helping clear the way for the construction of a hotel and for renovations for a new veterinary clinic. The hotel would belong to the regional Sunshine Inn and Suites network owned by Smithers developer Kim Tran. Tran has already received a zoning amendment allowing him to build more floors than normally permitted

under C3 zoning and detailing how he’ll be able to add apartment/ condominiums to the planned 90-100 hotel rooms. “The latest floor plans show 13 apartments with 11 on the fifth floor and two on the fourth,” Block said. Tran’s other hotels are in Smithers, Burns Lake and Houston and he has said he hopes to begin construction of the $12-14 million project this fall.

Block said that the next step will be that Tran applies for a development permit, and that Tran’s goal of building a foundation this fall would be “weather dependent and based on Mr. Tran’s willingness to work through the winter weather on this project.” The highways ministry has also issued a permit that will allow the development to go through after studying the effect on traffic flow

on the highway outside the proposed location. As for the veterinary clinic, a zoning amendment was need for the All West mall at the corner of Keith and Tetrault. Renovations in an empty location at the mall can now start for Dr. Jatinder Kang of Vancouver. The clinic will be for small animals, and the name, if approved by the veterinary medical association, is The Terrace Animal Hospital.

The restaurant is open as usual, or visit our other Drive Thru location at 4603 Keith Ave.

Miners leave Klappan but do plan to return In response to what it called “disruptive and damaging protests,” Fortune Minerals Ltd., the company that wants to build a coal mine in the Klappan Valley against the wishes of local Tahltan First Nation, began taking down its camp located in the valley last week. “Fortune will voluntarily cease its summer field program activities and withdraw from the project site for several months to allow the Tahltan and B.C. governments to continue their talks,” Fortune said in a press release last week. Fortune had completed most of the clean-up by last Friday. The announcement came after a series of protests staged by Tahltan members and environmentalists in mid-August escalated in intensity until they finally entered the Fortune camp and blockaded access on Sept. 22. Fortune had set up its camp in early July to collect data and samples for an environmental review to be used in an application to the BC Environmental Assessment Office for approval to develop its mine. Provincial mines minister Bill Bennett visited the valley on Sept. 21 and apologized for sending out a news release announcing the appointment of a mediator to work with both the Tahltan and

Annita McPhee Fortune earlier than first planned. The Tahltan objected to the appointment, saying the mediator’s position was designed to find a way to allow Fortune’s mine to go ahead. “They told him they were willing to be arrested if that is what it took,” said Tahltan Central Council president Annita McPhee in a statement regarding the protestors. RCMP Constable Lesley Smith said that the police, who have had their own camp set up between the protestors and Fortune since mid August, allowed the protests to unfold peacefully without making arrests. “This is how things should be done,” she said of the process which involved negotiating with both sides. Fortune Minerals, based in London, Ont., said earlier this month that its work wouldn’t go beyond the end of September anyway,

and that it plans to return next year to gather enough data to apply for an environmental review sometime late 2014 or the beginning of 2015. “There’s work that has to be done, and the important thing is we did complete a portion of the required work,” said Fortune official Troy Nazarewicz. Tahltan president McPhee said that Beauty Camp, set up by the Tahltan near Fortune’s camp, would remain set up as a hunting and culture camp for the foreseeable future. Earlier this month, a committee of senior government and Tahltan officials was formed to recommend ways to protect all or some of the Klappan Valley. Its recommendations are to be studied by the provincial cabinet early next year. That follows on statements made by the provincial Liberals during the May provincial election campaign. Fortune has made it clear it will pursue its coal mine plan and that any settlement with the government would be costly because it has already sunk millions of dollars into the project. “While the company has made the decision to give the time and space needed for discussions, there is still a full commitment on the part of both Fortune and its [South Korean]

partner to move forward with the environmental assessment and the project,” said Fortune CEO Robin Goad in a release. Fortune has been relying on a 2000 regional land and resource use management (LRMP) plan that set aside certain areas from development. The Klappan was not one of those areas. “The B.C. government and various parties, including the Tahltan, reached consensus in a process to set aside lands to be protected (26 per cent of the LRMP’s 5.2 million hectares). The protected areas total well over 1 million hectares, compared to our total mine development area of approximately 4000 hectares,” said Fortune’s Nazarewicz. Skeena NDP MP Nathan Cullen said last week that mixed messages from the provincial government contributed to bad feelings. “The province is trying to have it both ways, issuing permits on one hand while the political leader of the province says its going to be different,” he said. Cullen added that “the company is in a sense caught in the middle, yet if you want to have leadership that should be coming from the premier’s office. “It’s in the provincial governments interest. The Tahltan are very determined people.

EDITORIAL

Just ask MENTION traffic to any local resident in conversation and within seconds the Sande Overpass or rather, lack of a second unimpeded crossing of CN’s tracks will spill out. The topic has consumed Terrace city council for years. Teased, as it were, with the promise of federal and CN money in the last decade for the construction of another crossing only to have that hope dashed when CN decided the amount of train traffic didn’t warrant its construction. With no money of its own, Terrace council found itself out of luck with no effective strategy to guide it to success. Until now – and we can thank Toronto mayor Rob Ford who, despite his public persona of being slightly goofy, has turned out to be one sharp guy. That’s because he’s getting a cheque from the federal government for $662 million to help build a new subway system. When asked at a press conference how the federal government so easily wrote out the cheque, finance minister Jim Flaherty replied: “Because the mayor wrote to us and asked.” Who knew it could be so easy? And that should be enough for city council to place fingers on keyboard beginning with: The Honourable Jim Flaherty, Minister of Finance Dear Sir: We were watching the TV news ...

She won’t take another of her courses

goofed again. I registered for another on-line writing course with an instructor who disappointed me years ago. She offered few corrections, let us muddle through thinking we were geniuses, repeated the titles of her published books until I concluded she saw us mainly as a potential market for her books. I promised myself that was my last course with her. But I forgot that course, and paid for this one, looking forward to a lively interplay with other students, reading their often witty reminiscences and swapping ideas for improvements or application of writing rules. Without that interplay, why would one student read another’s essays? What could one student learn from another, unless an instructor identifies shortcomings and offers corrections? She does, but niggardly. Her teaching style has not improved. In the best online course I ever took (for humour) written assignments were 750 words, twice the length of this column. The instructor spent about an hour critiquing each student’s assign-

Reading each other’s essays took time; appreciating each essay and suggesting improvements took more time; studying the instructor’s critique took longer. But our time was enjoyably and most importantly, well spent. Twelve lessons comprise this course. But not until lesson six, when she “knows pretty much how experienced a writer is” does she “begin to help them achieve

a higher level of writing.” For me that’s five lessons too late. In exchange for tuition, isn’t the instructor obligated to guide the student in every way possible? Why else register for the course? Reading an assignment on how to write conversation that ran to 559 words when our limit was 100, I jumped in. Not only was the piece 449 words too long, it was one solid block of print, as inviting as a government document on foreign investment. Did the instructor note the word overrun? Nope. She even overlooked the title word, “chocoholates” – which peppered the piece – was misspelled and copied it in her critique. The student couldn’t count? Had no Spellcheck? No dictionary? No matter if the student wrote this for grandchildren, don’t they deserve Grandpa’s best writing, even if it is “simplistic”, the instructor’s definition of writing that ignores grammar, spelling, even word length restrictions. With my critique already posted, I asked the instructor for an itemized list of the sort of critiques we’re expected to offer each other, as noted

S TANDARD

in the course outline where it reads, “All comments must be supportive and helpful.” Apparently my critique was neither. “My best advice to everyone”, she replied, “is to focus on polishing their own work. When I’m critiquing a writer’s work, I am only concentrating on that one student. I never compare and I nudge when I need to. I offer tricks and tips that are geared to that person’s ability level.” But shouldn’t help begin at Lesson One? In response to my critique of the 559 word piece, she wrote, “I have just reviewed your LONG critique (my critique ran to nine lines, three of them complimenting the writer.) Do you really have enough time to do that? It was lovely of you, but totally unnecessary. As I mentioned above, it might be considered too much information or perhaps even unwanted.” Since her “tweaks” to others’ assignments are too minimal to benefit any serious student, I will access the course site only twice a week when a new lesson arrives or when I post an assignment. And I’ll never register in another of her classes.

Going back to CP Air’s days Dear Sir: WestJet is coming, the sky is not falling. The runway was lengthened at some cost for the advent of WestJet. WestJet is the modern version of CP Air or Queen Charlotte Air 50 years ago. You don’t know about that? Jim Spils-

bury wrote an excellent book on that called The Accidental Airline. He detailed the contest between him and Grant McConagie of CP Air for the exclusive right to fly the VancouverTerrace-Prince Rupert route. At that time and place all routes were

designated routes. You flew them, no one else could, you could rip off the passengers, no one else could. Prime Minister Mulroney changed that, not for the better. McConagie of CP wanted that route, so did Spilsbury of QCI. My connection with this – I was writing my

ground school exam in the old Riverside school. Enter a lot of gentlemen in downtown Vancouver suits. One of them walked down my isle and proceeded to help with some questions on the exam. “You see Sonny, the answer is ‘c’.” I looked at him and said, “I won’t mark

that just because you say so.” I later learned that this was the Grant, World War air vet, king of Canada’s pioneers of the air. Oh yes, I passed the exam. He won the right for CP to overcharge passengers on the Terrace-Vancouver route.

Dear Sir: The RCMP in our community are often broadbrushed as an entity of collusion and conspiracy. Sure. There may be officers who need to leave the force, but for the rest of the hard working men and women who sincerely strive to serve their communities, it is harsh to broad-brush the lot. This act of broad-brushing is harmful to the integrity of a group. Most work extremely unselfishly hard to take their jobs so seriously that they are willing to put their lives on the line. And yes, even for the less desirable members in our community. Credits to Dave Carroll for a video he posted. His lyrics remind us of how we neglect to appreciate the rescue heroes in our midst: “Cuz they made a promise and here they come. Someone hurting called 911 and the sirens saying hope is on the way. There’s a hero racing to help a stranger today. Saturday night in the city. The cruiser gets a dispatched call. Little girl says her daddy’s mad and drank a bunch of alcohol and so they head away into trouble again. People at the house are screaming. Someone yells he’s got a gun. A little girl full of panic cries out “Daddy don’t you shoot my mom.” That’s when the cops come in. These women and men. When people in the world need saving, the saviors who answer the call don’t get paid anymore for danger, or get to pick the ones they want. They just go to where the few will go and maybe lay it all on the line, as they do their job. Do it one more time.” They pull volunteer work in our communities. They work through natural disasters, floods, earthquakes when they wish they were home. Those who dishonor the force may leave. The rest of the hard working men and women who strive to pull off an awesome job while putting their lives on the line every shift may stay. I am proud to have the RCMP in our community.

Offshore customers push for lower LNG rates

oshimitsu Motegi is not a happy camper these days. Neither is Veerappa

Moily. The Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Indian energy minister respectively, they and their governments are ticked off by the price they are having to pay for their LNG (liquefied natural gas) imports. And they forcefully expressed their displeasure at an LNG producer-consumer conference held in Tokyo early last month. What’s driving them really crazy is they are having to cough up around $16 per million British Thermal Units (mmbtu) while natural gas is freely available in the United States at dirt cheap prices – around $3.70/mmbtu at Henry Hub at the time of writing. Henry Hub is a major distribution point in Louisiana and its name is applied to natural gas futures contracts. By the way,

Canadian natural gas is even cheaper. The problem of course is that Asian LNG prices are traditionally linked to the price of oil via an index with the wonderful name Japanese Crude Cocktail. The buyers argue that with North American prices where they are and a lot more LNG production expected to come on line around the world in the coming years, it is time to de-link from oil and establish a global commodity market for LNG. They’ve sung this song before, of course. But what was new this time is Japan and India have agreed to form a buyers’ group – which other Asian countries are encouraged to join – with the goal of bringing pressure to bear on suppliers and ending what they call “the Asian premium”. And they point to the fact that some Asian buyers have already signed long term contracts with US producers-to-be based on

GUEST COMMENT

MALCOLM BAXTER Henry Hub’s cheaper prices. One such US outfit is Freeport LNG which announced last month it had signed 20-year deals with Toshiba of Japan and SK of South Korea at a price of Henry Hub plus $7/mmbtu. In other words, based on today’s Hub price and rounding up,

only $11/mmbtu. However, producers both existing and proposed are unimpressed. Qatar is the largest producer of LNG in the world and supplies both Asian and European customers. At that same conference its oil minister, Mohammad Bin Saleh al-Sada, essentially said what is happening to prices in a “remote market” (read North America) was irrelevant to the Asian market. In other words Qatar is not likely to buckle to pressure any time soon. Appearing just as unyielding is Chevron, the lead partner in the proposed Kitimat LNG project. In a conference call to announce the company’s second quarter results, CEO George Kirkland left no doubt: “We do not plan to have Henry Hub linkage.” This was consistent with the company’s oft-repeated position

that it needed oil-indexed prices to justify spending billions of dollars to build the Kitimat LNG plant and pipeline to supply it. But he also threw out an interesting idea. If Asian customers bought equity in the project, in the long term they might do as well, if not better, than Henry Hub-based contracts. Basically his argument is that if a customer buys into the project, what they lose on the swings (oil-indexed prices) they gain on the roundabouts (a share of the revenues from the project). And they get a guaranteed price whereas the cost of contracts tied to lower-price Henry Hub rates will likely increase over time, thus eroding any supposed benefit. It will be fascinating to see how this plays out. Malcolm Baxter was the editor of The Northern Sentinel in Kitimat and has now retired and is living in Terrace, B.C.

River Kings fall flat at Challenge Cup By SHAUN THOMAS The Terrace River Kings traveled to Prince Rupert for the Challenge Cup on Sept. 20 and 21, and came away without a win after being outscored 10-2 in two games. The Kings opened the tournament against the host Prince Rupert Rampage on Friday night. The Rampage wasted no time when they took to home ice. After a disallowed goal just 28 seconds in, captain Jared Meers picked up a loose rebound and put it into the open net past a down Garret Muir to put the Rampage up just 5:18 in. Less than a minute later, Craig Munro put another rebound through the pads to make it 2-0 Rupert. Despite chances on both sides, that would be all the scoring in the first. The early second featured back-and-forth play, with the only goal coming with 9:42 on the clock as Kory Movold dropped the puck for Meers who wristed it ove the glove of Muir. Terrace had plenty of opportunities in the frame, but Warren Hanson seemed unbeatable in the Rupert net to the delight of the fans, and the period ended

3-0 for the Rampage. The River Kings finally got on the board in the third when captain Steve Cullis put a slapshot five hole 6:25 into the period, but it was too little too late. Joey Hidber's shot from the blue line found the back of the net with 5:11 to play, and Gavin Harburn put one past a downed Muir with 4:20 to play to give the Rampage the 5-1 win. On Saturday, playing

in the consolation game, the River Kings fell to the Ice Demons in a game that included 130 minutes in penalties. Ben Rumley opened the scoring just 2:14 into the game, though the Kings Chris Brown put one past Tom Mildenberger less than three minutes later to tie things up. But from there the Demons would shut down the Terrace offence. Kyle Boudreautt deked out Dawson

Kluss and found the back of the net with 6:26 to play to pull Kitimat ahead, and with just one second left on the clock Joel Findlay put home a breakaway gloveside wrister to put the Demons up 3-1. The second saw plenty of penalties and no scoring, but the Demons put the game out of reach early in the third when Ian Coleman put away a glove-side backhander with 16:20 on the clock and, less than a minute later, Wade Masch found a loose puck in front and put it past Kluss to give Kitimat the 5-1 win. “Tough losses but as they play together more and learn to stay out of the box things will improve,” said River Kings general manager Ray Hallock. The defending CIHL champions the Smithers Steelheads ultimately took the top spot in the tournament with their win against the Rampage. And the Kings will face off against the Demons again, when Kitimat hosts them for the season opener Oct. 5.

Volleyball play day sets up season Caledonia secondary school hosted its first tournament of the girls’ volleyball season two weekends ago, with teams from Smithers and Houston going up against the Caledonia Kermodes and the Skeena Middle School Grade 9’s. “My girls got off to a slow start, losing two straight to Smithers Secondary,” said Caledonia coach Adri MacKay. But the team bounced back defeating Bulkley Valley Christian School in two straight games, then meeting Houston in the final, beating them handily in two straight games. Skeena saw two losses and one win, but coach Frank Marrelli said that for both Terrace teams the tournament was a warm up to the season, a chance to try new players and switch up roles. “They were all close games, very close, and could’ve went either way,” he said of the games. “We (both him

and MacKay) summed it up with the words ‘inconsistent play’. “It sort of went up and down all day. And I think part of it was the obvious – being new, nerves, trying things that they hadn’t done before, that sort of thing,” he said, referencing the new players. “We’re hoping they get more comfortable in their roles and then we’ll have a more consistent result, that’s the goal.” The tournament was a soft opening to the rest of the season. “It was an icebreaker for most teams to try new systems, try new players in different roles, and the results may not be a thermometer of how the kids are doing yet because we’re working in the regard of increasing participation and experimentation rather than being severely competitive,” he said. “That’s not really our goal in these in these initial games.” Anna Killen PHOTOs

im and I bump gingerly up the haul road that spans the distance between the Clore River and Kitnayakwa Creek. There are nine productive runs in that stretch. Every one has at least one truck parked next to it. Approximately half those vehicles are rentals. We head back. I’m being generous when I say there are roughly a dozen good pieces of steelheading water from the Clore to Madsen Creek Canyon. There’s a truck at every run. Every productive run from Madsen Creek to the lower Canyon has some fishers on it. There are only a handful of anglers below that. Our final tally is 67 sports fishers. It’s a conservative number, since there were probably some anglers floating the river we missed. Others may have come and gone while we were counting salmon on Thomas Creek. Sixty-seven anglers fishing 29 runs generates a figure of two anglers and part of an angler per run on a day when the water conditions are poor and the prime time to fish the Zymoetz is still several weeks away. When you consider this figure, you must also take into account the fact that most of these fishermen were working the same dozen runs. Steelhead can still be found in the lower section of the river below the first Canyon late in the year, but they are few. As the season progresses, the fish become more concentrated in the upper section of the river creating the unsatisfactory situation where the angling pressure increases as the area with the most productive wa-

anglers, most of whom hailed from Washington and Oregon principally because industrial and urban development, dams, and the proliferation of hatcheries there had dramatically decreased the opportunity to angle for wild steelhead there. To curb this growth the Ministry wisely implemented a lottery system that remains in force today. This measure was successful largely because the Dean is a remote river accessible only by air or by salt water, a factor that greatly limits local participation in the fishery, and circumscribes where those locals can fish. The only boats on the Dean are those of the two guide outfits who were operating highly successful commercial enterprises on the river before a significant number of resident anglers began making their way to the river. The number of spots in Stewart and Hodgson’s Dean River Lodges was limited because guides are limited to a few clients. When the non resident alien lottery was imposed by the government, their numbers were capped too. Remoteness, logistical difficulties, and the availability to decent steelhead fisheries for lower mainland steelheaders restricted the resident demand on the Dean. This is not so anymore. Crowding and the consequent reduction of angling quality is once again an issue on the Dean. What now? Perhaps the government will have to adopt the plan implemented on the salmon river of Quebec by a chain smoking foe of Pierre Trudeau, many years ago. (More next week.)

The story of how the movies came to Terrace, B.C. By VERONIKA KURZ

redit for bringing the silver screen to Terrace goes to George Minchin who, in the late 1910s, put on Saturday evening movies in the Progress Club, a communityowned hall on Lakelse Ave., across from where Urban Colour is today. Not much has been recorded or remembered about Minchin. The theatre operator that old-timers fondly reminisce about was a “florid-faced,” enterprising man named Fred Bishop who ran a theatre in the Oddfellows Hall, located in the same building as the Progress Club, from 1923 to 1933. Bishop also maintained the first powergenerating plant in Terrace, which powered the theatre, a small, ad hoc system of an old Ferguson tractor and a beltdriven generator. “Sometimes the power plant would die in the middle of the movie,” Charles Houlden recalled, “and we’d have to wait till Fred got it working again.” Throughout the ‘20s, audiences enjoyed black and white silent films, often accompanied by a live musician or band. Bishop’s daughter Mabel played a gramophone at the front of the theatre. It only cost 25 cents to see a film and afterward young people would head over to Flossie Lambly’s Corner Snack Bar for a milkshake or piece of ‘Ma’ Lambly’s famous Boston cream pie. Located on the southwest corner of Lakelse Ave. and Atwood St., the Corner Snack Bar had the first soft ice cream machine in town. It was open until midnight every evening, so movie-goers had somewhere to talk about the latest film stars. In June of 1931, Bishop’s power plant caught fire, threatening to curtail Terrace’s enjoyment of the silver screen. Within half an hour of the outbreak of the fire, according to the

staff PHOTO

By the fall of 1931, Bishop had built a new and improved theatre next door to his downtown residence. “While silent pictures are being used at present,” the Omineca Herald reported, “arrangements have been made for the accommodation of talkies and it is hoped these pictures will be shown before long.” Bishop’s new theatre had the capacity to seat 100. It had a sloping concrete floor facing the screen and was furnished with an electrical gramophone, an improvement over the hand-cranked gramophone (especially for Mabel). Its construction, after the Depression had begun, was recognized in the Omineca Herald’s message congratulating Bishop for his “enterprise in going ahead with the project at a time when so many are

looking on the dark side of things.” It is unclear what happened to Bishop’s theatre: some old-timers recall Bishop not doing well financially, despite being popular with the locals. The Great Depression of the 1930s and the accompanying economic slump in the region were certainly factors. In 1933, Bishop left Terrace to join his brother in the theatre business in Victoria. Ten years later, in 1943, Charlie Adam, a businessman formerly of Stewart, constructed a theatre on the 4600 block of Lakelse Ave. Not coincidentally, 1943 was also the year that saw 6,000 soldiers and highway workers flood into Terrace for ‘Home Defence.’ According to his stepsons Rob and Ed Hiensch, Adam “saw a need for entertainment for the troops.” This theatre was poorly insulated with hot water radiators—in winter, moviegoers would crowd

around a large barrel stove—and had hard, uncomfortable benches. Adam eventually purchased surplus army projecting equipment, allowing him to show 35 mm film—rather than the older 16 mm film. The picture produced on 35 mm is sharper and less grainy, but slightly more flammable. Due to the higher risk, the fire chief required Adam to fireproof his projection room. Adam spent weeks scavenging tin cans and oil drums, which he cut into flat strips and nailed to the walls of the projection room, thereby reaching a measure of fireproofing. Adam built the thenTillicum Theatre in its present location on Lakelse Ave. in 1954. The new, Quonsetshaped theatre was warmly welcomed: it featured proper heaters, more comfortable seats, a large concession, and even a double-glazed

‘cry room’ for babies. Movies were shown every evening, with a matinee on Saturdays. Marianne Brandis recalled working for Adam at the theatre: she sold tickets, orange juice, chewing gum, and popcorn (for 10 cents!), Newsreels and promotions for upcoming films began at 8 p.m. The newsreels, Brandis recalled, were “always months out of date, one election or revolution merging into another.” In 1958, Adam opened Tillicum Drivein on the southwest corner of Keith Ave. and Braun St. The 40X80 foot screen showed movies on Fridays and Saturday nights throughout the summer and early fall, and operated into the late 1970s. During intermission between the two feature films, Rob and Ed Hiensch remember the concession becoming “a circus.” There was enough business to employ seven people behind the counter. The Tillicum Theatre and the Tillicum Drivein were both taken over in 1967 by Bill Young, who still owns the Lakelse Ave. theatre today. As part of his previous catering business, Young often showed movies during catering jobs in logging camps. When in Terrace to bid on a Nass Camp catering job, Young bumped into a friend, who introduced him to Adam, who was looking to sell the theatre. Young added a second theatre in 1974, changing the name to Tillicum Twin Theatres. It is now capable of 3-D projection and continues to screen blockbuster Hollywood films, continuing a long Terrace tradition. Veronika Kurz loves film, and spent the summer learning about local history as Heritage Park Museum’s community programmer. She is now back at the motion picture arts program at Capilano University. Kurz intends to become a filmmaker, and has recently launched her own film company, Dead Tree Film.

Final words from Pieter Weeber NOT many people have the opportunity to provide their last words before passing away. That wasn’t the case with District of New Hazelton councillor Peter Wieber Sr. who passed away in the early morning hours of Sept. 18. Here are his words as written down by son Peter Pieter Weeber Sr. Weeber. h e n y o u are about to die you find yourself reflecting on the things that are important to you. As a person who likes to have the final word I am pleased to take this opportunity to stand at the podium one last time. I have met many people during my days in the northwest and have been blessed with an amazing family and many good friends. It would take months to say goodbye to everyone I call a friend so consider this my final farewell to you all. When I arrived in New Hazelton 35 years ago, I quickly felt a connection to the community and knew I would spend my life here. I had the great honour of serving the District of New Hazelton as mayor and councillor for over 33 years. I am very proud of the work that our elected officials and staff have done to ensure our community made it through the difficult times. I loved my life in the Hazeltons and had many great adventures exploring the back country, hunting for mushrooms, cutting firewood, picking berries and working in the garden. I have faced many challenges in life but none bigger than my battle with cancer. I would never have made it as far as I did without the immeasurable support of my children. I took great joy in my final years doing all of my favourite activities and spending time with my children and grandchildren. I have lived life on my own terms with no regrets and died surrounded by the ones I love. My advice to you all (if you have the stones) is to stand up for what you believe in, get involved in your community, don’t hold a grudge and support your children because they will be running the place when us old folks are gone. Pieter Weeber Sr., AKA Mushroom Pete, New Hazelton, B.C.

Born May 13, 1936 in Holland, Weeber was 77 when he died of cancer. He was liberated by Canadian soldiers during the Second World War, something that he appreciated ever after, says friend Gail Lowry who is the mayor of New Hazelton. “He was just so proud to be a Canadian,” she said. Weeber moved to New Hazelton in the late 1970s to work in the forest industry and soon became involved in civic life. When New Hazelton became a district municipality in 1980, Weeber sat on its first council and continued to sit on its council up until his death, a period of more than 33 years. For more than half of that time, Weeber served as mayor of New Hazelton.

From Page A9

Airline history includes CP Air The route proposed by him was to be serviced by a DC 3 twin engine aircraft with seating for 20 passengers. For the small volume of traffic at that time the plane was more than adequate. When the pulp mill in Prince Rupert was being built the need for more seats became necessary and in about 1951 some DC4s and North Stars were brought in. These worked well. A new sleek and fast comfortable plane was brought in, the Convair. It was twin engine, big radials that produced big horsepower and a speedy flight. They were comfortable and a popular aircraft. The flight pattern than was from Vancouver to Terrace, then across to Rupert, pick up more passengers and return to Vancouver Now came the jet age. In B.C. all were Boeing 727s or 737s. In most opinions the finest passenger planes built, and a one-hour flight time to Vancouver. The jets worked well, they could carry payloads, they were comfortable and fast and they still used the triangle route for servicing us. When things are going well get politics involved and that will all stop. City councils made the decision that the cities needed direct flights from their cities to Vancouver, never mind going to Rupert first. They made the case that the Terrace-Rupert leg never made money. It was not supposed to. The aircraft was up north anyway – slide over to Rupert, fill the seats, go back to Vancouver with a full load, utilized what the aircraft could do. The air companies bought into this idea, then knew that the jets were too inefficient to do direct flights and big aircraft just did not do it. So they all went to small planes, none much bigger than DC3s, Quieter, but not much bigger. More comfy but not much faster. And that has become the norm. WestJet, with its addiction to jet air-

craft, will not be using jets here. They will conform to the accepted standard, smaller turbo prop machines. In all this time ma-

chine there were, at our airport, two flying schools, one in 1955 run by Jerry Spiney where I trained, along with Ray Sande, the Hulls, Joe

Schutzic, John Sarich, Lloyd Johnston. And some forgotten names. There was a second school in 2000 run by Al Larson, that trained

Trevor Reynolds. Both of these revered gentleman now fly the big jets for WestJet, travelling the world, doing very well.

Ray Sande of my class ran his very successful charter business out of Watson Lake. Les Watmough, Terrace, B.C.

Share mental health stories to end stigma PEOPLE AROUND the world are more similar than we think, and when it comes to mental illness, current treatments are effective and can help people all over the world who need them. And people need to learn to have empathy and compassion toward others with mental illness as we aren’t naturally empathetic toward those who are different, says Delaney Ruston, a doctor and filmmaker, whose latest movie Hidden Pictures, which looks at people with mental illness in five countries, will be shown globally on Mental Health Day, Oct. 10, including here in Terrace. “One of the best, most effective ways to decrease stigma is to get to know people with mental illness and to see them do better with treatment,” said Ruston. Ruston, whose father was diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenic before she was born, went through many years of shame, frustration and fear, and ended up hiding from him. After a decade, her dad was more stable on a new medication, and given her experiences as a doctor and mother, she decided to connect with him again. “Once I started to reconnect with him, I realized how powerful it is to share stories, particularly because it helps us get people

to the right treatment and services they may not know about or that are hard to access,” she said by phone from her home in Seattle, Washington. After her first two films – Crisis in Control: A new type of living will about her dad, his disease and her struggle to understand forms which would allow her father to indicate his choices of treatment and who should be the decision maker if he had a mental crisis and Unlisted: A Story of Schizophrenia, about her attempt to reconnect with him and understand him – she wanted to try to tell people’s stories from abroad, in India, South Africa, China, France and the U.S. The World Health Organization estimates that 450 million people around the world suffer from a mental disorder, including learning disabilities, dementia, depression and epilepsy, to name a few. She chose France as it has been ranked as number one in the world for health care so she wanted to see if that was true for mental health care. There she met Steven Geiger, who tells his story in which, despite being honest about being in hospital, doors were slammed on him as he tried to get work as a teacher. What hit home from his story is that we

should be farther along in understanding and having empathy for those with mental illness, she said. It was difficult to get anyone to talk to her in China or India. She thought an advocacy group would be a good place to find subjects because people there would be open about mental illness but China had no advocacy groups, she said. India had very few non-governmental organizations dedicated to global mental health. She had heard that people in India do better with schizophrenia because they’re more included in the family and are allowed to farm and live in the community. However, when she was in India, the reality was quite different. People believed that someone with mental illness was demon possessed and the community would separate itself from that family, she said. It’s often thought that you can’t change these types of beliefs but when members of a community talk about the biology of mental illness in their community and the community sees the person get better with treatment, they can change. “When an organization came in and educated the community and got this wonderful 25-year-old treatment, then it became a much more inclusive community,” she said.

While the belief has been that other countries have different ways of dealing with mental illness, the fact is that the treatments we use here are good to use all over the world. “What’s most exciting in both high and low income countries is that simple interventions with not that much training have a significant impact,” she said, referring to how the same techniques we use here can help those with mental illness and their families in other countries. And while many other countries don’t talk about mental illness, that barrier has been coming down in the U.S. and Canada in recent years, said Ruston. “People want to talk about it (mental illness). They want to get support and not live alone and be isolated and if we can get that barrier to come down, it’s going to make a huge impact internationally,” she said. Telling people’s stories also empowers them. “My goal is really to get all of us at the grassroots level to continue to share our own mental health stories,” said Ruston, adding she hopes that the film will instill in people a little bit of compassion and a lot of curiosity to learn more.
