May vote proposed to replace Adrian Dix
TALL DRINK OF WATER
By Tom Fletcher Black Press
The provincial executive of the British Columbia NDP has proposed May 25, 2014 for a leadership vote to select a replacement for Adrian Dix. The party executive picked the date, almost exactly three years before the next scheduled B.C. election, to avoid municipal elections set for next fall and a federal election expected in 2015. That is to make it more practical for municipal politicians and MPs to consider whether they want to jump to provincial politics. In September, Dix announced he would stay on as leader until a successor is chosen, and at the time he said that would take place before the middle of next year. The May vote was picked after discussions with the party’s current MLAs and local constituency presidents, but it still must be approved by the NDP provincial council. No candidate has formally announced, but several are thinking about taking a run. They include veteran Port Coquitlam MLA Mike Farnworth, who finished second to Dix in 2011, and caucus newcomers Judy Darcy, George Heyman and David Eby, all of whom represent Vancouver constituencies. Vancouver Island MLA Rob Fleming and SkeenaBulkley Valley MP Nathan Cullen have also said they are weighing their chances. Juan de Fuca MLA John Horgan, who finished third behind Dix in the 2011 vote, announced last week he will not make another run for the top job. Horgan said he wants to see a new generation of leadership get the attention of members after the party’s upset loss in the May 2013 election. The B.C. NDP’s next party convention is set for Nov. 15-17 in Vancouver.

Lac la Hache goes 1-3 on season
Gaven Crites Free Press
Teams in the Central Interior Hockey League continue to produce at the offensive end. Unfortunately for the Lac la Hache Tomahawks, the output wasn’t enough last weekend and the senior men’s hockey team dropped back-to-back games on the road. In a face-off with the Smithers Steelheads on Oct. 19, Lac la Hache scored five goals but gave up nine. Smithers peppered Tomahawks goalie William Sellars with 53 shots, scoring four goals in the first, one in the second and four in the third. Kyle Crump netted three goals for Lac la Hache, while Sheldon Paul and Antoine Sargeant added one a piece. Assists on the

Integration focus for developmentally disabled
By Tom Fletcher Black Press
One of Christy Clark’s first crises as premier was a 2011 revolt by parents and caregivers over money-saving changes to the British Columbia government agency responsible for developmentally disabled people. The chief executive officer of Community Living BC (CLBC) was fired after reports of people being moved from group homes into contracted homesharing arrangements without consent. Waiting lists swelled as 65 group homes were closed, with disabled people living longer than ever before. A government MLA, Randy Hawes, joined Opposition critics calling for relief. A work program at a Maple Ridge recycling facility had its operating funds cut, a decision hastily reversed as the B.C. Liberal government found an extra $40 million for CLBC’s budget to assist 13,000 developmentally disabled clients. Clark promised a re-organization. Two years later, Comox Valley MLA Don McRae is the new Minister of Social Development and
Social Innovation. He is touring the province during October, looking for ways to deliver that innovation, with an emphasis on finding jobs and homes for as many developmentally disabled people as possible. Money is still a big pressure, with the government beginning a “core review” to squeeze more savings from all ministries. McRae has already faced criticism from contracted service agencies after their budgets had to absorb a three per cent wage hike for unionized employees. McRae said in an interview last week he has yet to meet a service agency that has been unable to work through the new budget with
help from CLBC. And the agency continues to pursue home-sharing arrangements where practical. “Society is evolving, and I’ve had the opportunity to visit individuals who want to live in an inclusive environment, in a neighbourhood,” McRae said, adding there is “no push” to move people away from group homes. McRae is reaching out to employer groups to build on successful work placements in grocery stores and other workplaces. “For a person with a disability or not, having a job, and it could be full time or part time, allows you to have a role in society that gives something back,
and increases your selfworth. I think there’s huge value in that.” McRae recalled segregated classes from his own childhood. As a high school teacher until his election in 2009, he worked with integrated classrooms. Work and retirement are the next phases. That step begins with new oversight. Effective in October, Representative for Children and Youth Mary Ellen TurpelLafond’s mandate is extended to people moving from youth services to CLBC responsibility, continuing until age 24. In a pilot project, the ministry has hired four “navigators” to guide developmentally dis-

abled people leaving school to make sure they don’t fall through the cracks and have the welfare and health support they need. Another pilot begins in Burnaby next year, with a navigator assigned to help developmentally disabled people adjust to their senior years.

Waste Reduction Week Oct. 21-27
British Columbians are asked to rethink how they consume and what they throw away during Waste Reduction Week in Canada. Across the nation from Oct. 21 to 27, schools, businesses, governments and individuals are challenged to change their habits to reduce waste. “British Columbia has a long history of recycling and waste diversion, but individually we still sent almost 600 kilograms of garbage to landfills last year. Nova Scotians sent under 400 kg each, so we can do better,” says Brock Macdonald, Recycling Council of British Columbia chief executive officer. “Waste Reduction Week is a campaign that asks British Columbians to rethink what we buy, how we buy, and consider what we individually dispose of and where we can make a difference.” Waste Reduction Week inspires Canadians to take action and reduce their waste in their own creative and effective ways. For example, schools are holding waste-free

lunches; communities are conducting special recycling collection activities; and one school has even created a video for the BC Green Games competition and will be holding an inschool waste audit. “It’s great to see all these initiatives happening across the province,” says B.C.’s Minister of Environment Mary Polak. “British Columbians are doing their part to make zero waste a priority.” Waste Reduction Week’s national sponsor, Recycle My Cell, is hosting a contest for schools and postsecondary institutions
to collect and recycle as many old wireless devices as possible. “Waste Reduction Week is a perfect opportunity for all British Columbians to make simple changes in their lives. Some of these actions could include refilling your morning coffee mug, refusing a shopping bag at the checkout, or buying in bulk to reduce packaging,” says Macdonald. “As Canadians, we already understand the importance of a healthy environment, but sometimes we forget that our everyday actions are a statement of those

Being FireSmart requires information, awareness Step-by-step instructions • Gather and pile brush in an open area away from overhanging branches. • In the fall, cover the brush pile with a tarp. Keep the pile covered for at least two months before you burn. • Before you burn, check what prohibitions are in place by visiting www.bcwildfire.ca. • Those burning must review and comply with the Environmental Management Act and the Open Burning Smoke Control Regulations found at www.bcairquality.ca/index.html. • Check the local venting index at the above website. • Ideally, burn when there is a thin layer of snow on the ground, or there has been recent rainfall. • Construct a fuel break around the fire. • Make sure that you have enough supplies (water, hand tools) near-
Now that fall has arrived, there may be a rising interest to burn those piles of branches, grass or brush that have accumulated over the summer months. However, waiting until the late fall or even burning in the winter can make pile burning safer and more manageable. Part of being FireSmart with your property or business area is to get rid of those dead fuels, when conditions are right. Here are some tips so that when you burn, you burn it right: Category 2 (backyard/ industrial) open fires An open fire, excluding a campfire, that burns piled material no larger than two metres high and three metres wide, or grass over an area less than 0.2 hectares (2,000 square metres) in size. More information is available at bcwildfire.ca/Restrictions/ BackyardBurning.pdf.
by to extinguish the fire. • When you are ready to burn, light the fire in a safe way that ensures the fire will quickly build from smouldering to a hot, clean burn. • Do not leave the fire unattended. Make sure that the person patrolling the fire has a hand tool to ensure that the fire does not escape. • As the pile burns down, use a rake or shovel to re-pile all the material in the centre. This keeps the heat concentrated to maximize the amount of material that is consumed by

l
the fire. • Enjoy a safer, cleaner burn with very little smoke. If you are burning a Category 3 (industrial/ resource management) open fire – one that is larger than two metres high and three metres wide or grass over an area larger than 0.2 hectares (2,000 square metres) in size – you must obtain a burn registration number at 1-800-797-1717.

GEMINI - May 22/June 21 Cooperate with others this week, Gemini. This works best when you embrace compromise. Listen to what others have to say and always keep an open mind. CANCER - June 22/July 22 Cancer, a desire to get organized has been on your mind for some time. Now is the ideal time to do something about it. Start by clearing out clutter and go from there. LEO - July 23/Aug 23 Enjoy a short vacation, Leo. Maybe a jaunt to a weekend hideaway or something off the beaten path, but enjoy this well-deserved escape from the daily grind. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, you are feeling domestic this week, so enjoy puttering around the house these next several days. You can catch up on decorating or renovating the home. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, you feel a strong need to communicate with others this week. Share some truths with your loved ones, but try not to come across as if you have an agenda. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you may have a desire to travel and seek adventure, but right now finances won’t allow it. If you can keep expenses down, you may have the opportunity soon.

Vavenby man still missing After more than two weeks, the search continues for missing Vavenby resident Laverne (Vern) Boettger, age 78. Police are asking drivers in the North Thompson area to be on the lookout for the elderly man and his pickup truck. He was last seen Oct. 6 driving his 1997 Ford Ranger, B.C. licence plate8769HB, heading north from Vavenby on Highway 5. Close to 50 search and rescue members and non-member volunteers, supported by helicopters, concentrated on searching the numerous area back roads, which family members say Boettger enjoys exploring. Search and Rescue crews have now stood down, and RCMP report that all local roads and back roads in the Valemount/Mt. Robson area have now been checked.

Outdoor FortisBC offers an
online energy calculator that will help you compare the cost of fuel sources and their energy efficiency, demonstrating that natural gas is the most affordable choice for homeowners. Find it at www.fortisbc. com/energycalculator. FortisBC natural gas customers are continuing to benefit from some of the lowest prices in a decade. As of Oct. 1, customers will see a decrease for the cost of natural gas to just over $3 per gigajoule. More information can be found at www. fortisbc.com/rates. Other outdoor options that Malhas and Doise have seen lately have been fire tables and full outdoor fireplaces. “People are looking for an indoor-outdoor life,” says Malhas. “You can install a fire table that looks just like a coffee table and can be used as a coffee table outside, with a linear burner in the middle.” She’s also seen fire pits within an outdoor dining table. “Natural gas brings warmth. It obviously brings physical warmth but also a warm ambiance.” This is especially important in the living areas, where you want to gather with friends

and family. “There’s a lot of flexibility when it comes to gas fireplaces,” says Malhas. “You can convert an old woodburning fireplace, customize how it looks, whatever you want to suit your style, space and budget.” Doise agrees, saying, “A fireplace in the living room becomes a focal point. You want to place everything around it.” Installing natural gas in your home will also increase the resale value. FortisBC has partnered with Black Press on the Reno Me! with FortisBC contest, which began Oct. 7. Readers are encouraged to submit a photo by Oct. 31 of their great room, kitchen or outdoor space and explain why
they want a makeover using natural gas. One finalist from each category will be chosen to receive a consultation with an interior designer and a rendering of their space. Then, one winner will be chosen by readers to receive $10,000 towards their renovation, with the second and third place homeowners receiving $2,000. Voters will also get a chance to win a $500 gift card towards the purchase of a natural gas appliance. To enter the Reno Me! with FortisBC contest, visit your local Black Press paper’s website and click on the Contests link. For more information about natural gas in your home, visit www.fortisbc.com/ goodforhomes.

HELP the HUNGRY! The need in our community is
CRITICAL and YOU CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. There’s a FOOD CRISIS in 100 Mile House. The South Cariboo Food Security Committee has put out a plea for food donations to support the hungry families and individuals in need this summer. Local gardeners with extra produce in their plots, and the general public through non-perishable donations, are being asked to help with this food crisis. Children, youth and families are challenged daily in having enough to eat, especially nutritious food.
