Water, sewer connection to Oyster Bay complete Lindsay Chung THE CHRONICLE

Last August, MP John Duncan came to Stz’uminus First Nation to announce nearly $1.5 million in federal funding from Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) to extend water and sewer services from Ladysmith. Last week, Duncan was back in the area, this time to celebrate the completion of that work. Duncan, Stz’uminus First Nation Chief John Elliott and Ladysmith Mayor Rob Hutchins stood on the Stz’uminus Oyster Bay Reserve at Oyster Sto’Lo Road beside the Ivy Green Husky Wednesday, Oct. 9 and cut a ribbon to celebrate the completion of water and sewer infrastructure for Oyster Bay. “Your communities have much to be proud of,” said Duncan. Water and sewer services at Oyster Bay

will make way for proposed development in the area, and will also secure a safe water source for the Stz’uminus community currently residing at Oyster Bay. Elliott expressed gratitude to everyone who has worked together on this project and explained that the completion of water and sewer “will help make an economy and build the local area.” “It’s all about working together and making sure that we do this building of the local area together,” he said, calling this “the start of where we are going for our future.” Calling the day of the ribbon cutting “a significant milestone between those two communities,” Hutchins noted that the Town of Ladysmith and Stz’uminus First Nation signed a renewed Community Accord in May 2012 and followed that up with a Memorandum of Understanding. “Today, we’re actually celebrating the first real physical manifestation of that

work,” he said. “We’re actually physically, the infrastructure in place, development finally, connecting our two communities of Oyster Bay can begin, according to a together in a meaningful way through press release. water and sewer.

In brief New Harbour Heritage Centre

Stolen bee pollen returned to Fredrich’s Honey

shares stories and legends from the industries that built Ladysmith Lindsay Chung

Stolen bee pollen has been returned to Fredrich’s Honey farm in Cedar. Nanaimo police continue to search for the thief involved in a bee-pollen heist in late September, but they say at least half the stock has been returned. Almost 225 kilograms of unprocessed bee pollen was stolen from an outbuilding on Fredrich’s Honey farm between Sept. 28 and 29. On Oct. 4, someone who heard about the theft on the news returned close to 112 kilograms of the pollen. Police are not saying how the person came into possession of the stolen pollen because of an ongoing investigation, but they say the individual is not the thief and no charges are expected to be laid.

Chemainus Rotary Club’s Oct. 19 garage sale will raise money for Guatemala

Finally, a chance to visit a garage sale and not feel a twinge of buyer’s remorse once you get home. The Rotary Club of Chemainus is sending nine of its members to Guatemala in February to help fix roofs, build bed frames, dig latrines and whatever else is needed to help the citizens of the impoverished Central American country. The Rotarians will pay they own travel expenses — including lodging and meals — so club members are raising money to take along to buy everyday necessities and toys for families in Guatemala. One way they’re hoping to raise cash is through a garage sale taking place Oct. 19, from 9 a.m. to noon, on Chemainus Road at Mill Street, right across the road from the Royal Canadian Legion. — Mike D’Amour

THE CHRONICLE

Ladysmith Maritime Society volunteers Shirley Blackstaff (left) and Marnie Craig stand on the dock inside the new Harbour Heritage Centre on Oyster Bay Drive. The centre oficially opened Sept. 27. LINDSAY CHUNG

At the end of September, the Ladysmith Maritime Society (LMS) celebrated the official opening of its new Harbour Heritage Centre — and the valuable contributions of the many volunteers who made this possible. The Harbour Heritage Centre officially opened Sept. 27 in the blue Expo Legacy Building on Oyster Bay Drive. It’s an exploratory, interactive centre where visitors can discover the early way of life of the Ladysmith Harbour. When you walk in, a bright, beautiful harbour mural painted by local artist Kath Stroman is the first thing you’ll see. “This is the pristine harbour before anybody got to making good or bad changes to it,” explained Marnie Craig of LMS. The harbour mural, meant to be the beginning of the section exploring the history of the oyster industry, depicts Walter Jones, a pioneer in oyster farming. Curator Shirley Blackstaff says he was called “the oyster king.” “He was the first person to introduce the Japanese oyster,” she said. “Some of the other people, like Timothy’s, learned from him.” Walter Jones’s daughter, took over the business, and her daughter, Myfanwy Plecas, still lives here. “She gave us all the artifacts

and told us all the stories,” said Blackstaff. The LMS volunteers have built a small room to show where oysters would be washed, shucked and packaged — complete with running water in the sink and a model woman at the sink. “This little room’s exactly like [Myfanwy’s] was,” said Blackstaff. “The model is Myfanwy’s mom, and it’s their original sink for washing the oysters. We’ve made it so you can sort of feel like you’re part of it, like you’re interacting with it.” “The people part of it is interesting,” added Craig. “Myfanwy said ‘we used to look out the window to the ocean,’ so we made the window looking at the mural. The thing that’s neat about it is the little bits of memory and story that make it real.” Next, visitors can learn about the fishing industry. This exhibit features a restored Porlier Pass troller and a dock that people can walk up onto. “We’re very lucky to have this boat,” said Blackstaff. “It was built in Saltair by Carter Boat Works, and no other exists. We set the boat up so you can see how it works.” Inside the boat, there is an old tackle box used by someone on Porlier Pass in the 1930s, and visitors can see the troller’s original engine. “We designed it so you feel like you’re part of it,” said Blackstaff. “We hope eventually to have technology at each setting,

to give the opportunity to interact, play a game, listen to a story about each topic,” added Craig. There’s a bit of information about the Ladysmith Smelter, which processed copper ore from Mount Sicker around 1902. “A lot of people don’t know there was a smelter here,” said Craig. “It’s responsible for a lot of pollution in our harbour. It wasn’t here long, but long enough. We weren’t going to put something in, but people were saying ‘where’s the smelter?’” For coal mining, a diorama is being created to depict the history of the industry, and it is expected to be finished in the spring. The logging industry is represented by a diorama about the Ladysmith Log Dump, which was created by Guy Brooke, and a variety of artifacts, such as log stamps and a hand faller’s double-faced axe. Many, many volunteers helped make the opening of the Harbour Heritage Centre possible. The building housing the Harbour Heritage Centre was previously used for storage, and it was a lot of work to get it ready for a museum. A big part of the floor had to be replaced, and volunteers had to paint, grind off beams and build the different areas, like a dock beside the Porlier Pass troller, and the oyster room. “There was a lot of work to See Volunteers Page 5

In the section exploring the history of the oyster industry in Ladysmith, there is a small room depicting where Walter Jones’s family worked at the Ladysmith Oyster Company. Here, at left, a model stands at the sink, ready to wash oysters. At right is a mural depicting the pristine Ladysmith Harbour. Painted by local artist Kath Stroman, the mural features a portrait of Jones, known as “the oyster king.” LINDSAY CHUNG

Brush with cougar at Saltair Mill carries public warning

officer. The incident happened at the Saltair Mill in Ladysmith on Sept. 22 at about 8 a.m. when the watchman spotted the cat eyeing him from some lumber piles in the mill yard about 100 metres away. “It was coming towards him, so he runs to his guard shack,” said conservation officer Stuart Bates. “He had to cover about 10 metres, and when he got to the guard shack and closed the door, the cougar was behind him outside the door, which means that cougar covered 100 metres in the time it took him to cover 10 — which is why we tell people, ‘Don’t run.’” Because the cougar stayed near the mill, located on Ludlow Road on the Ladysmith waterfront, following the incident, the time of day it oc-

curred and that the animal had no qualms about chasing a fullgrown man, Bates responded to the scene with a houndsman. Within 10 minutes of arriving, the dog

the guard shack. “[It was] 10 metres behind that building; it was still sitting there,” Bates said. “A young male about three years old, and yes it was put down, unfortunately. When they start showing that kind of behaviour in that kind of location … Transfer Beach is right there if it wants to keep going.” It’s the second incident in the mid-Island where conservation officers shot a cougar — earlier in September, officers killed a cougar in north Nanaimo. They also killed a small bear south of the city in the same week. Incidents between cougars and humans are still rare, but the numbers of calls about cougar sightings have risen sharply since the 2010-11 province’s fiscal year (April 1 to March 31) when people reported 640 sightings on Vancouver Island. For 2011-12, complaints leapt to 1,861, and 2012-13 tallied 1,712 calls. “So far this year, we’re at 1,411,” Bates said. “It’s been a very, very, very busy year for cougars for us.” The reason for the sharp rise in numbers is simple, Bates said. Deer populations are rising rapidly in urban and semi-urban areas,

and more deer draw more cougars following their food source. “Cougar attacks do happen,” Bates said. “They’re more common on Vancouver Island than other places, but they’re still not that common.” Vancouver Island has a large cougar population, Bates said, and sub-adult cougars recently separated from their mothers will seek out easy meals and are the most common cougars conservation officers deal with. “The best advice I can give people is don’t feed deer and don’t feed raccoons in your yard because you will attract cougars,” Bates said. Pets are at risk too. House cats and small dogs should be kept indoors at night. When cougars take down a deer, house cats will be drawn to the smell. A cougar will kill a cat just for showing up at its kill. Bates said people need to be aware cougars are around and to be vigilant and remember two things if they encounter a cat. “Don’t run and don’t scream,” Bates said. “You do one of those two things and you can cause an attack. It’s a predator. If you run from a predator, he assumes you’re edible.”

Cleaning up Transfer Beach

Employees from MNP LLP recently cleaned up 499 kilograms (or 1,101 pounds) of garbage from Transfer Beach during the firm’s first Community Service Day. For its Community Service Day, MNP decided to participate in the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup, and staff members donated an entire work day to cleaning up five different shorelines sites across the Island. In Ladysmith, staff members covered approximately two to three kilometres during the cleanup on Sept. 23. The most unusual item they found was a marine locator. In total, more than 80 MNP employees participated in the Great Shoreline Cleanup, picking up 1,979 kilograms of trash in the Comox Valley, Nanoose Bay, Nanaimo, Ladysmith and Mill Bay. Staff members collected 11,019 pieces of litter, including 5,700 cigarette butts. “We wanted to do something to help the communities we live in, and all the communities we have offices in have shoreline,” explained Janna Olynyk, MNP’s co-ordinator for the Transfer Beach cleanup, who grew up in Yellow Point, went to high school in Ladysmith and works in the Nanaimo office. “When we heard about [the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup], we thought it was great.” Lindsay Chung

Opinion

Time right for leadership in education

YOUR WORDS

“What may have been written in the 20s, 30s or 40s is timeless in a way.” Zandra Burns, Page 12

e can see some logic in one of the overarching principles of the B.C. Liberal approach to education. It is true the province cannot afford to bankroll the system in complete disregard for declining enrollment numbers; some form of consolidation is more than prudent, it’s necessary. What is completely asinine, however, is the way the government has handed communities across the province a brand-new expense without giving them the proper tools to deal with it. We are referring, of course, to the deal the provincial bargaining agent for B.C.’s school districts just struck with support staff workers. The deal — which calls for raises of 3.5 per cent over two years — is hardly ridiculous, given the cost of living is likely to go up four per cent during that same period. Yet the province has left it up to the local school districts — which rely almost entirely on government per-student grants to operate — to find that money. And the money will be found in the same places it has always been found under the Liberal tenure: school closures, program cutbacks, decreased maintenance and layoffs. It’s time the province stopped treating school districts like prodigal sons on fixed allowances. It’s time it started taking some responsibility and provided some leadership. Part of that is providing some direction on where school districts should be headed and the resources necessary to pay for what has happened and what has to happen. The cycle has been spiralling downward for more than a decade. Step up and help turn this thing around. —Cowichan News Leader Pictorial

This is my Christian journey

o s t people I know w h o a r e n ’t churchgoing folks have a very resolute attitude toward Christianity and church itself. The adjective hypocritical is used the most often. This is not to say they don’t believe in Jesus as taught to them as children; loving and being loved by Jesus was always the easy part. In fact, during the Canadian government’s Royal Commission on First Nations throughout Canada in 1995, one native reminisced on how good it might have been if European colonizers had just brought Jesus to them and left the church behind!

Points to Ponder Gloria Cope-Munro Chemainus United Church Nowadays, the “Father God” I was taught about is seen by many as one’s higher power and definitely not as being of male gender, a descriptive term that most now see as having contributed toward discrimination against women in the past and in many societies still does today. Questions like, is Jesus God? How could Jesus be the son of a virgin? Metaphors and miracles became unexplained beliefs such as doctrinal statements that claim “Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins”… And what is this thing called “Holy Spirit”

(Holy Ghost) all about? I was one who grew up in what is now referred to as a mainstream Protestant church during the 1940s and 1950s. Like many, I left the church during my late teens, not because I began to question its theology (not then) but because it just didn’t interest me anymore. However, while I may have left the building behind, I carried God with me, and at age 23, as I began to raise a family, the desire to understand why this separation from the church building did not affect my belief in God. Further to this, I had

to find out who was this man named Jesus and what did He and God have in common. Upon reflection, there is one sure thing I would have said to that young woman: “If you choose, faith can be a journey of discovery that will carry you through all things, good and bad for the rest of your life.” As time goes on, I will continue to share with you more about my faith journey and how becoming a member of Chemainus United Church continues to shape my life. At this time, I can only say that my home church has come a long way in answering the questions so many of us used to have and many may still have about Christianity today.

Editor: On Oct. 16, tentatively, the planning department of the Municipality of North Cowichan is presenting council with the latest plan to develop up to 20 per cent of the Echo Heights Forest in Chemainus with 45-55 singlefamily houses. On or after Friday, Oct. 11, you can phone the municipality at 250-746-3100 to confirm the Oct. 16 date. I encourage you to come to the council meeting, which begins at 3 p.m. Their previous plan was to develop 40 per cent of the 54-acre forest with a variety of housing, including multi-family and affordable. I know there are some people who were in favour of the previous plan because it was not just single-family houses. That is no longer the case. Along with hundreds of others, I want to see all of the Echo Heights Forest preserved as a park forever. Ninety-two per cent of the correspondence the municipality has received about the Echo Heights Forest also want 100 per cent of it saved as a park. There are many reasons to preserve this treasured forest, including the wonderful network of easy walking trails which are enjoyed by people and dogs alike on a daily basis. There are maps in the forest at the trail intersections. The forest is used by locals, as well as out-of-towners from as far away as Texas and Japan. The forest has beautiful spring wildflowers, including trillium, tiger lily, blue camas lily, fawn lily and fairy slipper orchid. There are Western Red Cedars, Coastal Douglas Firs, Grand Firs, big Big Leaf Maples, Arbutus and Western Hemlock. It is an explosion of biodiversity. The forest provides habitat for many plants and animals that in turn provide great joy to those who enjoy the forest. It is chalk full of traditional medicines and

The forest absorbs huge quantities of water, preventing flooding below. School children take an easy walk from Chemainus Elementary School to come to learn about nature. Students also come to the forest from Tamagawa University and the University of Victoria. The forest acts as a buffer for the community from the noise and pollution from the Trans Canada Highway and the smell from nearby farms. There is a geocache in the forest. North Cowichan recently joined the Partners for Climate Protection Program, a network of Canadian municipal governments committed to reducing greenhouse gases and acting on climate change. They have just received an award for achieving the first three milestones: creating a greenhouse gas emissions inventory, setting an emissions reduction target, and developing a local action plan.

Now they are tackling milestone No. 4, implementing their Climate Action and Energy Plan (CAEP). They will be eligible for grants and low-interest loans for projects that reduce both energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions through the Green Municipal Fund and other programs. The Echo Heights forest falls right in line with the above because of all the carbon the trees and plants absorb. The benefits of the Echo Heights forest are many. By not putting housing at this site, the municipality will help to keep Chemainus a small town, which is what the residents of Chemainus enjoy. Chris Clements, a local developer, already has the zoning he needs to develop the “Artisan’s Village” between Chemainus Road, Elm Street and River Road. His plan is to put in 500700 residential units mixed with commercial buildings. Housing

in Echo Heights simply is not needed. If you would like a guided tour of the Echo Heights Forest, please call me, Diana, at 250246-4463 or Kathy at 250-4160382. Visit YouTube to see wonderful images of the Echo Heights Forest. Please consider writing to mayor and council of the Municipality of North Cowichan, Box 278, Duncan, BC, V9L 3X4 or e-mailing council@northcowichan.ca to express your opinion on this topic. I hope to see you at the council meeting and/or in the forest. Soothe your soul with a walk through the Echo Heights Forest soon. “No one ever made a mistake by deciding to not develop a piece of land,” Nancy Turner, ethnobiologist. Diana Hardacker Chemainus

Chemainus River Bridge

Peter W. Rusland Chemainus River Bridge’s reopening will take at least five more weeks after earlier hiccups started a domino effect, the project’s contractor explained. North Cowichan council announced last week that the $5-million rural span between Chemainus and Crofton won’t be ready until Nov. 25 — a five-and-a-halfweek delay beyond the previous Oct. 17 opening date. Paul Simpson of Jacob Brothers Construction signalled the later wait was basically started back in June. “The main reason the job is delayed was delays in getting the hydro lines moved,” he told the Cowichan News Leader Pictorial. “That created a snowball effect, with some other changes. It’s basically due to relocation of hydro lines.” That work stalled the start of bridge work for about a week after the project was to have begun June 11. Another snag occurred when a bridge worker was electrocuted June 18. He survived. Details about exactly how the near-tragedy happened have not been released. Brass at the nearby Halalt First Nation band office were

taking the bridge’s completion gap in stride — while already dealing with chronic speeders. “At this point (the bridge delay) isn’t a big deal,” said Lonnie Norris, Halalt’s assistant manager. The longer bridge completion just means more traffic, from the Crofton Ferry and mill, for a longer period on Chemainus Road, where the Halalt erected a speed reader board to slow bad drivers, including scofflaws who pass school buses. Norris said the speed readers aren’t working “as well as we hoped.” The band has taken its road concerns to B.C. highways’ agents, police, and North Cowichan council. Mayor John Lefebure explained the bridge project is on budget, but delays can happen as timelines are basically a calculated guess. “You estimate how long it will take; it’s impossible to know exactly how long (a job) will take.” Lefebure sympathized with the longer inconvenience to people using the bridge but indicated the span is a unique engineering animal that can pose glitches. “I have no indication if (another delay) will happen, and I don’t expect it, but I can’t guarantee it.”

NOTICE OF INTENT TO ADOPT INTER-COMMUNITY BUSINESS LICENCE BYLAW 2013, No. 1839 The Town of Ladysmith wishes to establish an Inter-Community Business Licence in conjunction with neighbouring communities. The intent is to create one business licence (and one business licence fee) for qualified mobile businesses doing business in one or more participating municipality. This would eliminate the need for businesses to hold separate business licences for each municipality in which they operate. As an example, a Ladysmith-based contract is required to have a Ladysmith Business Licence; currently, in order to do business in Parksville, Qualicum or Port Alberni, the contractor would also need to purchase business licences in each of these municipalities. Under the proposed bylaw, the contractor would still purchase a Ladysmith Business Licence, but would only have to purchase one additional licence at a cost of $150.00 which would licence the contractor to work in all participating municipalities. Ladysmith Council has given the first three readings to Inter-Community Business Licence Bylaw 2013, No. 1839. In accordance with section 59 of the Community Charter, the Town of Ladysmith is providing an opportunity for citizens and businesses to make representation to Council about Inter-Community Business Licence Bylaw 2013, No. 1839. The proposed bylaw is scheduled to be considered for adoption at the Regular Council Meeting to be held at Ladysmith City Hall on Monday, October 22 at 7:00 p.m. If you wish to speak to “Inter-Community Business Licence Bylaw 2013, No. 1839 Council Meeting, please submit a written request to the Corporate Services Department by noon on Wednesday, October 16. Applications to appear as a Delegation can be found on the Town website at www.ladysmith.ca. The proposed bylaw can be read on the Town’s website (www.ladysmith.ca) and is available for viewing in person at City Hall, corner of Roberts Street and Trans Canada Highway (9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding statutory holidays).eanderson@ ladysmith.ca For more information about the proposed “Inter-Community Business Licence Bylaw 2013 No. 1839” please contact Erin Anderson, Director of Financial Services 250.246.6402 eanderson@ladysmith.ca

Zandra Burns inspired by Ella Lindsay Chung THE CHRONICLE

Zandra Burns of Chemainus thinks of herself as an old soul. She jokes that she would wear 1950s dresses most days of the week if it were practical. But it’s her choice of music that perhaps most exemplifies her love for days gone by. Burns is a jazz singer who loves the melodies and lyrics of songs sung decades ago by legends like Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme. Burns received classical voice training as a young girl in Winnipeg, but she discovered a love for jazz, soon after hearing Ella Fitzgerald sing. Burns feels that jazz

It’s a plethora of music history. Cole Porter and George and Ira Gershwin thought of such clever ways to get a point across or tell a story. My biggest pleasure is seeing a woman who could be my grandmother mouth along the words. Maybe it’s not for the masses and not for Top 40 radio, but I think I need to stay with what’s authentic to me. People still like

those melodies; they admire the lyric, and I think there is an audience for these tunes that are as classic as a black blazer in a woman’s wardrobe. What may have been written in the 20s, 30s or 40s is timeless in a way.” Burns moved to the Cowichan Valley from Winnipeg five years ago. After working as a nanny on Thetis Island, she moved to Chemainus, and she has lived here for over a year. Burns says she loves the sense of community in Chemainus and the people she meets walking her dog in the early mornings. “My spirit is happier,” she said. “The music part, it is something

But she stopped singing for a decade and began again after moving to B.C. “When I stopped singing, I needed to stop,” she said. “When I came out here, it wasn’t the plan. I guess I got the bug, and the passion is back, immensely. I discovered being quiet for 10 years changes your voice. I have a different instrument.” Burns is learning how to develop and See Burns Page 14

Shows support music therapy Staff Writer the chronicle

A few years ago, Ladysmith residents took part in the filming of Megan McNeil’s “The Will To Survive” video and became part of her fight against childhood cancer. The song raises money for the James Fund for Neuroblastoma Research and the British Columbia Childhood Cancer Parents Association and carries on McNeil’s fight after she lost her battle with cancer at the age of 20. And it wouldn’t have gotten far if it weren’t for music therapy. Ryan McMahon, who helped McNeil arrange and record “The Will to Survive” in 2010, saw first-hand the importance of music therapy, and now he and his new band, the lion the bear the fox, are raising awareness and money to support music therapy on Vancouver Island. “Megan’s ‘Will to Survive’ song, video and entire campaign wouldn’t have seen the light if not for music

Ryan McMahon, Cory Woodward and Christopher Arruda are raising money to support music therapy programs on Vancouver Island. Photo Submitted therapy,” says McMahon. “So there’s the first-hand relation for me. I can only imagine what having music at one’s fingertips would mean to someone suffering from an illness of some kind. Music heals the soul … it’s been proven.” When the lion the bear the fox performs on Vancouver Island as part of its We’d Be Good Men EP Release Tour in support of Music Heals this week, the band will donate partial proceeds from each show toward its Bandwagon Project. Bandwagon is the world’s first mobile recording studio de-

signed specifically for use by music therapists, and it contains microphones, instruments, a computer, recording software and more to aid therapists to work with patients. Currently, there is one stationary Bandwagon at BC Children’s Hospital and one that travels around Greater Vancouver for sixweek residencies. The lion the bear the fox wants to raise $10,000 to bring Bandwagon to Vancouver Island hospitals and care centres for the first time. The band launched the Bandwagon Project in early September

Application No. PA 106894

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION NOTICE Application for a Permit under the Provisions of the Environmental Management Act We, FortisBC Energy (Vancouver Island) Inc. (3951 Ninatti Road, Ladysmith, BC, V9G IK3, Attention: Dave Nicolson) intend to submit this application to the Director to authorize the discharge of water from the Mt. Hayes Liquefied Natural Gas Storage Facility. The source of the water discharge is from the Reverse Osmosis (RO) Tiger Purification Systems Inc. which is used to treat the natural run off water from the onsite holding pond. The land upon which the RO water treatment system is situated and the discharge will occur is at 3951 Ninatti Road Mt. Hayes (Bright Land District, Electoral Area H Cowichan Valley Regional District), BC, V9G 1K3 (49° 00’ 44.3” N, 123° 55’ 08.2” W), located approximately 8 km from the Nanaimo Regional Airport. The maximum rate of water discharge from the RO water treatment system will be 2.2m3/h. The operating period for this facility will be variable throughout the year, as required. The characteristics of the water discharge will have more concentrated metals and salts than the intake water but it will meet the Canadian Environmental Quality Guidelines for the Protection of Aquatic Life at the property boundary. The type of treatment to be applied to the surface water discharge is the RO Tiger Purification System which is used to remove dissolved material and organics from the surface water collected in the holding pond. Additionally, an estimated 0.52 tonnes/year of NOx (NO + NO2) will be emitted from the onsite generator and fire water pump from normal operations at the facility. Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed discharge of waste and wishes to provide relevant information may, within 30 days after the last date of posting, publishing, service or display, send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the Regional Manager, Environmental Protection at Bag 2, Fort St. John, B.C.

because there is a lot I want to learn, and that is the place for me to do it.” Burns started singing when she was very young. “My parents were not musical,” she said with a laugh. “I liked watching The Sound of Music, or the Pavarotti Christmas specials that would come on TV. “I begged and begged for lessons. I really wanted to be in musical theatre. My stepmom did a lot of research, and chose classical. I am very grateful for that base of training.” Burns has a lot of opportunities coming up this fall in the Cowichan Valley. She will perform with other VIU jazz students Sunday afternoons at the Horseshoe Bay Inn Pub in Chemainus from 2-4 p.m. Oct. 27 and Nov. 10 and 24.

DEATHS

RULLO, Anna

In Loving Memory

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

Anna was born in 1921 in Isokyro, Finland, and passed away quietly on October 9, 2013, after an accidental fall a week earlier. Anna came to Canada in the postwar wave of immigrants from Europe, as a young mother with two children and her husband, Vaino (Vic) Rullo. Three more children were born in B.C. and the family settled near Ladysmith, on a poultry farm that has operated over 50 years. Anna had her own style, a generous heart, and enormous energy and determination. She was truly the hub of the family. Her sharp powers of observation were mostly clothed in Finnish reserve, but she had a vivid sense of humour too. Renowned for her hospitality, her guests raved about her meals, but she claimed she didn’t know how to cook. The coffee pot was always on and her Finnish coffee bread (pulla) was fabulous. Anna was keen on handicrafts and weaving, although she rarely had time to spare as a farm wife. In 1968, she experienced the tragic loss of her son, Martti, an event she never spoke of willingly for the rest of her life. She passed away precisely on the 45th anniversary of Martti’s death. Her beloved Vaino passed away in 2002 and she missed him every single day since then. Anna is survived by four children: Liisa (Bob), Jussi (Jane), George (Jane), and Paula (Bill), as well as grandchildren and great-grandchildren: Mark (Cory; Avery and Holden), Brent, Aaron, Lindsay, Elizabeth, Matthew and Michael. The family wishes to thank sincerely Dr. Schulson, Dr. Francis, and the caring staff at Nanaimo Travellers Lodge and Nanaimo Regional General Hospital for their kindness and skill. Service at Ladysmith United Church, High Street & 3rd. Ave., Tuesday, October 15, 10:00am; burial at Cedar Cemetary and refreshments at Cedar Hall to follow.

MILLS, Eunice Claire (nee Rae) Born April 29, 1924, died peacefully surrounded by her children on September 17, 2013 in the Duncan hospital after suffering a massive stroke. She leaves behind her daughters Shelley Prelusky (Allen) and Laurie Reilly (Bob) and her son Mark (Christine); grandchildren David, Stefanie, Nathan, Nick, Danika, Jenna, Brian and Aran. Predeceased by her husband Ronald in 1994, her oldest daughter Darlene Steele in 1995, and her remaining siblings Harold, Merlin, Vaughn, Eileen and Walter. Eunice was one of six children born in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, raised in the Prairie Depression and migrated to Victoria in 1944. Although having a nursing background, Eunice decided to help the war effort out and became a welder at the VMD in Victoria, welding merchant ships for the duration of the war. She met her husband Ronald Mills who had just returned from serving for his country in Europe. They moved to Thetis Island where Eunice helped pioneer the tiny Gulf Island. She peeled power poles, helped build her house, became the janitor for the one room school house and whatever else was needed of her. Ron and Eunice raised four children there and in 1980, moved to Chemainus. She will be remembered for riding her scooter around Chemainus until she was 80 and her generosity, from helping at the Chemainus Bingo Hall, baking matrimonial cakes and making cushions to growing tomatoes for her neighbours in the Channel View Estates subdivision. A special thanks goes out to Dr. Manhas and the nurses and caregivers on the second floor at the Duncan hospital. You gave our mom the best care – the dignity and respect she deserved in her final days. We truly thank you from the bottom of our hearts. “Although a flower’s life may end, it’s beauty will never be forgotten” “Sweet freedom whispered in my ear. You’re a butterfly and butterflies are free to fly. Fly away, high away, bye bye” You will be missed, never ever forgotten. A Celebration of Eunice’s Life will be held on Sunday, October 20th at 1:00 p.m. at the Chemainus Senior’s Drop-In Centre, 9824 Willow St., Chemainus, B.C.

IRVING, John R September 9, 1920 – October 7, 2013 John passed away peacefully on October 7th, 2013 in Chemainus, British Columbia. He was 93, the last survivor of a large Calgary family of 5 girls and 3 boys. He is survived by his childhood sweetheart and loving wife of 67 years, Trudy (Gertrude Macmillan), and children Joan (Jim), Kathy (Rob), Barbara (Tim), John (Mary) and Doug (Wendy) as well as 13 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren. John graduated from Western Canada High School, Calgary, and attended the University of Washington but left in 1942 to join the Royal Canadian Navy. He served on a mine sweeper and a destroyer, and was aboard ship in Northern Ireland when World War II ended. His naval career was the start of a lifelong love of boating and coastal exploration. John co-founded and managed successful businesses in Calgary and later on Vancouver Island, where he and Trudy moved their young family in 1967. After an early retirement, he took up painting, working first in oils and later in watercolours. He befriended mural painters and totem pole sculptors, among others young and old. Known for his generosity and openness to strangers, John volunteered for many organizations. He especially enjoyed his years as a Cub leader but was also active in the Rotary Club (Calgary), Naval Officers’ Association of Vancouver Island, the Chemainus Sketch Club, and Chemainus United Church, which he attended for more than 40 years. It is at this church on October 19th at 2:00 pm that the family will welcome friends to celebrate John’s memory and sing a song for a life well lived. In lieu of flowers, you are invited to make a donation to the Salvation Army or the charity of your choice. Trudy and the rest of the family wish to thank the caring staff at the Chemainus Health Care Centre for their smiles and gentle attentiveness with John.
