District brings back former school names Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Names of the Lake City Secondary School campuses were changed back to their former secondary school names after considerable debate by school trustees Tuesday evening. The Western Campus name will be changed to Columneetza Campus. The Carson Campus will become the Williams Lake Campus. The school names were
changed in May when the Columneetza and Williams Lake grades 8 to 12 secondary schools were amalgamated into one grades 7 to 12 school on two campuses. The Columneetza campus is primarily for grades 7 to 9 while the W.L. campus is primarily for Grades 10 to 12. The trustees made the decision to revert back to the former names after being lobbied by the public to do so, but it was not a unanimous decision.
Before voting Tuesday the trustees debated Roberts Rules of Order surrounding the original bylaw made in May that established the new names, in particular a point of order which implies that the name bylaw can’t be revisited for a year. Lac La Hache Trustee Tanya Guenther made a resolution to put the question to a parliamentarian but it was defeated. The trustees debated whether to give notice of motion to change the names back at the

Forest Grove Trustee Will Van Osch abstained. 100 Mile Trustee Chris Pettman was absent. 150 Mile Trustee Jackie Austin, Williams Lake fringe Trustee Sheila Boehm, Williams Lake Trustee Doug Neufeld, and Chilcotin Trustee and Chair Joyce Cooper voted in favour of the motion.

McLeese Lake man in hospital after house fire Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A McLeese Lake man is in hospital in Vancouver with very significant burns to his body after his one-storey home on Lagerquist Road was completely destroyed by fire Tuesday evening, said Corp. Greg Stromm of the Williams Lake RCMP. Mike Dickson, one of five local men who helped fight the fire, said the 50-somethingyear-old man managed to break a window and jump out of his burning house. He was the only person in the home at the time of the fire. “He was in shock and went and sat in that chair,” Dickson said Wednesday morning, pointing to a chair situated outside the tire shop located next door. Dickson and Greg Foster, who along with McLeese Lake residents Ian Harris, Al Hamm and Robert Hamm make up the newly-formed McLeese

Dickson lives nearby and at first heard a loud bang, he said. His four dogs began
barking and when he looked outside, he saw flames throughout the one-storey house. He contacted the fire society members, they marshalled up a pumper fire truck and arrived on scene to fight the blaze. Dickson went into the house with fire extinguishers, but all they did was slow the fire

cracked from the intense heat of the blaze. “Mike aimed a hose at the roof to keep it cool,” Foster said. Residents in McLeese Lake are presently without fire protection, but Foster said their society is the “initial attack team.” “We will be a classified as a pirate volunteer department for the
AN APPLE A DAY... Endemic, epidemic, pandemic.... words we hear more often during the flu season. Flu is endemic because it is present continually during the winter months. If the number of flu cases is higher than expected, the flu is epidemic. It becomes pandemic when it occurs over a wide geographical area or even worldwide. Flu has a short incubation period, about 2-3 days. The symptoms can range from mild to severe but one symptom you should not ignore is shortness of breath. If you experience this, see a doctor right away because it could signal a sign of a complication like pneumonia. Some tablets release the medication slowly in the instestinal tract leaving only an empty, unabsorbable shell which you may see in your feces. Don’t be alarmed. It’s just the way the tablet was designed to release the medication. We’ll let you know if we dispense this type of medication for you. Social media, TV, radio and newspapers are full of stories about the latest weight-reducing product or aids to improving your health. It’s important to see where these stories come from and when they cite “clinical studies”, find out who paid for these studies. Often it’s the people who are selling the product.

Dickson said. One of the neat things in McLeese Lake is the neighbourhood feeling, Foster added. “It’s like telephone tag. Somebody gets on the phone and we all get there with what we have to get there with.” As they continued to inspect the fire damage, both men said the man injured in the fire and his brother, who lives above the tire shop, just moved to McLeese Lake last January. “They were hoping to expand the business to include antiques and other things,” Foster said of the tire shop. Williams Lake RCMP responded to the fire and said the cause of the fire is still under investigation. “There is nothing to suggest at this time that there is any criminality involved,” Strom said. “If you have any information about this incident please contact the Williams Lake RCMP at 250-3926211.”

Pot petition circulates in area Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer So far the Sensible Policing Act petition to decriminalize possession of cannabis has gathered 50 signatures in Williams Lake, said Samantha Carter. It’s a far cry from the 32,000 needed from Cariboo North and Cariboo-Chilcotin. Carter and Melissa Kalogerakos, both of Williams Lake, picked up the ball about a month ago when they
discovered no one was gathering signatures in Williams Lake, Carter said, adding she knows many people who have benefited health-wise from marijuana. “It’s not as bad as people think,” Carter added. From Oct. 26 until the end of November, the two women will be at Hall’s Organics on Highway 97 South from noon to 5 p.m. with petitions. “We are a month behind,” Carter said. Provincially the col-
lection of signatures is a team effort, and if one electoral district fails everyone will fail, Carter said. “I would hate to be the one that failed,” she added. Carter has heard there may be other people collecting signatures in the region, but has not been able to determine who they are. “Maybe when they find out we’re collecting signatures they will contact us,” she said hopefully.

MADD to educate students on impaired driving
New Members Welcome
With a realistic story line in which most young people could imagine themselves, and personal stories showing the heartache and grief caused by impaired driving, MADD Canada’s 2013/14 School Assembly Program challenges students to consider their perceptions and choices when it comes to mixing alcohol and/or drugs with driving. “Reaching teens and young adults with the sober driving message is one of our most important priorities,” said MADD Williams Lake community leader, Pam Herman. “Each year, MADD Canada produces a new School Assembly Program designed to get students thinking about the risks of impaired driving and make them understand that trag-

edy occurs when people make wrong choices.” Impaired driving takes a huge toll on Canadian youth. Nearly 50 per cent of all road crash deaths involving 15- to 24-year -olds are alcohol-related. In 2009, approximately 350 young people were killed and 41,000 were injured in impairment-related crashes. Also in 2009, 16-25year-olds constituted just 13.7 per cent of the population, but accounted for nearly 31.1 per cent of all alcoholrelated crash deaths. Smashed will be presented to students on Oct. 29 at Lake City Secondary Williams Lake Campus at 12:30 p.m. We also encourage parents to come out and view the presentation.

The Chief and Council, and most of all, the people of the Williams Lake Indian Band would like to extend their sincerest appreciation and gratitude to all the businesses in Williams Lake who contributed to the construction of the gazebo and washroom for the newly restored Sugar Cane Church of the Immaculate Conception. The Gazebo will be named the Anna Crucil Gazebo, in honour of mother of the Reid and Chevigny family. The church has been in continuous use for one hundred and eighteen years (since 1895) without the amenity of a washroom facility. Anyone who has attended the Sugar Cane Church can attest to this fact. Now this has changed mainly through the efforts and coordination of Bryan Reid and Peter Arnold of Pioneer Log Homes of BC. The following businesses from Williams Lake contributed toward the success of this amazing project which was started and completed in one week.
Our greatest appreciation goes out to the following generous contributors: Pioneer Log Homes of BC United Concrete & Gravel Mainline Roofing Co. Ltd. • Brandt Tractor Ltd.

Proposed gov’t act to keep tabs on water Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A proposed Water Sustainability Act would give government the teeth to deal with groundwater the same way it deals with surface water, said B.C.’s Minister of Environment Mary Polak while visiting the 141 Mile Ranch Wednesday afternoon. “We want to focus on making sure we have the right framework in place so we have good control over who is using what so it’s fair,” Polak said while sitting around the kitchen table with ranch owners Cliff and Jo Hinsche and their son Garrett. “We want to make sure we’re not causing people, who have been responsible, to suddenly have a cost or have something that doesn’t work on the ground,” Polak said of the act. Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett, who had arranged the meeting, also invited Mayor Kerry Cook and city CAO Darrell Garceau to attend. “The minister wanted to speak with a longtime rancher who uses
water and who understands the issues,” Barnett said of the reason for arranging the meeting with the Hinsches. Cliff said he’s been ranching for more than 65 years and the water license for his ranch was established in 1863. The ranch has a big water storage system. They turn it on when they need water, and shut it off when they don’t, he said. Jo insisted the government must listen to the agricultural community. “We are not going to use more water than we need because we need it in the fall, we need it in the spring, so we don’t just let it run away,” she said. Polak said specifically the new act will try to protect stream health and aquatic environments. It will consider water in land-use decisions, regulate and protect groundwater, regulate water use during times of scarcity and improve security, water use efficiency and conservation. It will also aim to measure and report large scale water use and provide a range of

There is no authority to investigate how much water exists and that’s a huge issue, she added. The agricultural community has told government it’s fine with reporting water use, but is not willing to metre it because it’s too expensive, Polak said. Polak also said the act would help when there are conflicts over who gets what water and that First Nations wouldn’t be treated any differently under that act, unless they are in

the coffee table conversations which she thinks are the best forum, the ministry met with the B.C. Agriculture Council and the B.C. Cattlemen’s Association. In rural B.C. there’s a big problem with water in subdivisions, Barnett said. “The approving officer says, you have to go prove water on that subdivision,” Barnett said. “They may say they’ll approve that subdivision as long as there is a well on every single lot.”
treaty negotiations. And local governments could set up their own rules around water consumption, government wouldn’t stop that, she added. “We’ve been to a few towns where people want to metre their water and charge for it. We won’t affect any of that.” The focus of the act is to make sure the water is being managed properly so everyone gets the share they are entitled to and that if there’s an emergency situation the right priorities are in place and can be implemented, Polak said. In the new year, once the regulations are finalized, the government will tour the province to discuss water fees and rates. “Up until now the charges have all been based on helping us administer what we do,” Polak said. “It hasn’t been intended to bring in money. It only brings in about $7 million a year. It’s peanuts for government.” Public can weigh in on the proposed act by going to http://engage. gov.bc.ca/watersustainabilityact/.

Debacle continues in Canadian Senate
A
lthough at times entertaining, it really is sad to watch the effects of greed and power on the human race. Case in point: the current sorry state of the Canadian Senate. Embattled senators Mike Duffy, Patrick Brazeau and Pamela Wallin are appearing desperate in their fight to hang on to their Senate seats. The three senators were all caught with their pants down in an audit of their expense claims earlier this year. Since then, the story has snowballed into finger-pointing, schoolyard-worthy, he said-she said fights. These appear to be coming to a boiling point this week as fellow senators are debating whether or not to suspend the three without pay. All three are fighting back, with Duffy letting loose an ex-
plosive tirade throwing both the Prime Minister’s office staff and Prime Minister Stephen Harper himself under the bus. Wallin also took to the podium this week bitterly complaining that she was the victim of “backroom politics,” and that it’s a worry as a cancer-survivor to have her benefits cut off. We not sure about Brazeau, but it’s hard to believe either Duffy or Wallin need their Senate jobs for income. Just when it looked like the Senate would oust their colleagues yesterday, there seemed again to be some hesitation to take action — likely because none of those senators want to lose a good thing either. Let’s face it, at the end of the day what most Canadians really want is for the entire Senate to be abolished. - Williams Lake Tribune/Advisor

Ambitious chili dinner turns into plenty of comedic relief “Dinner is off!” Carmen has announced. She has gone on strike. Can’t be for higher wages as I’m paying her nothing. No, it has to do with her need for a break, time off from cooking and housekeeping. So I most graciously volunteered to cook dinner. She eyed me with some suspicion, wondering no doubt, what I was going to try to pull off. I decided to make my chili supremo but ran into some difficulty trying to do too many things at once, not keeping an eye on the stove and wincing after setting fire to my lips with tobasco sauce. Carmen asked from the other room how I was doing but I had a hard time talking. With much cursing and banging of pots coming from the kitchen, Carmen went into high

alert, stuck her nose in and asked if I was contemplating Uncle Bob’s Reality show. Finally, after some serious effort on my part, the meal hit the table. It was, in my opinion, a tour de force (force being the operative word here.) Although I had overheated my body and was starting to sweat
and downing the chili added a nicely flushed face. “Next time,” said Carmen, “ask for some help. You could use it.” Apparently. Once I set the heat too high and the oil in the stir fry mix caught fire. A two-foot flame headed toward the ceiling. I moved with alacrity, (not a chronic condition of mine), and grabbed a fire extinguisher blasting the dinner to oblivion. But it worked, it was out in two seconds flat. Mind you, it took me hours to clean up the mess, while Carmen casually remarked: “All you had to do was put a lid on it!” OK I admit I’m rather casual when it comes to cooking. The other day, Carmen asked me to keep an eye on the chicken in the oven as she was off to volunteer at SMAC (Seventy Mile Access
Center for those not aware of this local treasure). Finally she shut the oven off prior to leaving, figuring I’d forget. A good bet on her part. The dogs hang around the kitchen a lot when I’m cooking hoping to have some food fall on their heads. They are rarely disappointed. I can image their little doggy brains working; ‘if they can distract me by jumping up and showing undue affection’, I’m likely to flip some tidbit on the floor. They know too, that if I make a mess of it, it turns into doggy dinner, a welcome departure from their usual fare. Cooking for me is a divine pleasure, not just for eating but to share with friends and to maintain a healthy diet. Hereto much will soon be
made of living within one’s means and coming up with delicious meals that serve all these needs, while on a budget. For me also, an unprepared meal is a creative challenge and to which, I always rise to the occasion. To cap all this off, I made jelly from red currents we grew, only to put in a dark brown sugar instead of white so it now has a nice molasses flavour. Then when the instructions read ‘bring to a quick boil,’ I did, only to have it boil over on the stove top, staining everything within a five foot circle red. “At least,” said Carmen, “as a cook, you provide some comic relief.” Robert Nichol is a freelance columnist with the Tribune/Advisor.

B.C. government oil spill study misinterpreted The release of the B.C. government’s detailed study into oil spill response capability off the West Coast created the usual brief wave of media shock and horror. This just in! If crude oil spilled in the Dixon Entrance, the stormtossed sea lane north of Haida Gwaii, the combined resources of Canadian and U.S. containment and collection response could only recover an estimated four per cent of it. And that’s in the summer! The winter recovery rate would be more like three per cent. Talk radio and website headlines set the narrative in minutes. How could anyone even consider running oil tankers through that pristine B.C. coastal area? It’s crazy! Here’s the big fact clearly stated in the study by U.S.-based Nuka Research and Planning Group, and ignored by most of the media and public. There are hundreds of tankers filled with crude oil sailing through these stormy seas every year. It’s been going on since Alaska North Slope crude was developed in the 1970s. Six of the seven oil spill simulations run by Nuka are based on Alaska crude, because that’s overwhelmingly what has been shipped along B.C.’s North Coast for 40 years. This lack of crude oil spill response capability has existed the entire time, without a whisper of protest or media attention, even after the 1989
B.C. Views
with Tom Fletcher
Exxon Valdez disaster near the oil’s point of origin. The current narrative, hammered home by U.S.-controlled environmental groups and their aboriginal partners in the “Great Bear Rainforest,” is that only Canadian oil is a threat. How much Alaska crude is shipped down the B.C. coast? According to Nuka’s analysis, it’s currently about 38 million cubic metres each year. That’s enough to fill B.C. Place stadium to the roof – 15 times. The Sierra-Greenpeace-ForestEthics-Dogwood gang, a sort of billionaire-bankrolled green Team America, has worked hard to promote the falsehood that “tar sands” oil is vastly worse than that nice fair-trade Alaska stuff. Their claims about acidity and abrasiveness of diluted bitumen didn’t hold up, and it’s still hotly contested whether the heavy oil in diluted bitumen would float, emulsify or sink in actual sea conditions. When the federal government
announced a study to determine what spilled bitumen would do in North Coast waters, that too was attacked by the Green Party as a secret scheme to prop up Enbridge’s pipeline proposal. So it’s a scandal when you don’t know the answers, and it’s a scandal when you try to find them. Another question that gets little attention is whether it’s better for spilled oil to sink rather than wash up on beaches. Crude oil is, if you’ll pardon the expression, organic. Spills produce a huge spike in oil-eating bacteria that leads to an increase
in fish populations at a certain stage. This was documented in a 1994 book called Degrees of Disaster, written by an expert who stayed on in Valdez for four years, long after the TV cameras and grandstanding politicians went home. Victoria-based Dogwood seized on a 2012 Nuka study done for the Haisla Nation at Kitimat, which found that in ocean conditions that are present more than half of the time, there would be no immediate way to respond to a spill at sea. Dogwood’s “no tankers cam-
paign director” hinted that this information was intentionally left out of the B.C. government study, and the media ate it up. No tankers? Better check again. Dogwood’s mission is clearly not to protect the B.C. coast from oil spills. If it were, they would be protesting the ongoing risk from Alaska tankers.

Member of Parliament not sleepwalking in Ottawa Here is part of a letter I sent to our Member of Parliament, Dick Harris. It appears as though the only prosperity, that will come to our region of Canada in the next while, will be the new Prosperity Mine Project. Approval for the mine would provide 60,000 person years of employment and the taxes in the neighborhood of $1.7 billion would come into the federal coffers, while $3.4 billion would be paid to the Province of B.C. If this mine is not approved, it will send a strong message to potential investors that B.C. and Canada are not open for mining investment. Dollars and jobs will go elsewhere, if this mine is not granted the right to open. I have been a supporter of the
Contemplating Ken
with Ken Wilson
Conservative party since 1958 and I don’t want to loose my faith in a government that has always stood up for business. Thank you, Dick, for your strong support, and now I sincerely hope your colleagues will be as positive as you are regarding a vote of approval for Prosperity, in the Cariboo Chilcotin
of Beautiful British Columbia. That was the basis of my letter regarding the New Prosperity Mine. In a note to a constituent a few days ago, Mr. Harris said he is working to promote the mine. “I am not exactly sleepwalking over here in Ottawa, and in fact have been non-stop in our advocacy of the New Prosperity Mine. It has and is a huge priority for us and we will be front and centre on it here until the decision is made. Keep on plugging the New Prosperity for the Cariboo Chilcotin.” This week, Ervin Charleyboy was visiting the MP in Ottawa. Keep up the good work, Ervin. Still with federal politics, I was glad to see last week’s signing in principle of the Canada-European Union free trade deal, Cana-
da’s largest trade agreement was a real highlight for the prime minster. There will be more business competition in Canada as a result of the agreement and it will certainly help small business in BC who have goods they could sell in Europe. I think this might be one of Prime Minister Harper’s best deals since he has led the Canadian Government. This is perhaps one more reason to celebrate Small Business Week in B.C. Over onemillion are employed in small business across our province and the Chamber of Commerce throughout the province are holding seminars and other events to celebrate businesses in British Columbia. The Williams Lake Chamber is holding special events related
to Small Business Week. *** Those who set the bridge on fire at the 900 logging road should make an appointment with the stupid clinic. What a dumb, senseless thing to do. What do these people think they are accomplishing? The RCMP suspect the rash of crime in Alexis Creek area is perpetrated by prolific offenders. If they are caught I wish the judges had the authority to boot them out of this area for some time. Do you think these people would continue their stupidity if they were not around friends or dummies of the same ilk? Do you think these people feel real good about their crimes and the bridge fire?

Riding on after a battle with cancer Angie Mindus Staff Writer Like all cowboys, Len LeBlanc has enjoyed a physical, outdoor lifestyle with little room left for nonsense or complaint. So when a series of surgeries to fight lifethreatening bladder cancer left LeBlanc adapting to an external bladder bag he admits he really wondered what kind of quality of life he would have moving forward. “I got to feeling down in the dumps for awhile,” LeBlanc admits. Those feelings couldn’t have lasted long though, because while he still had the bandages around his torso where doctors were forced to remove one of his kidneys, LeBlanc, with the help of nursing student
Jenny Vike, made a video for other cancer patients like himself in the hopes of lessening their worries. “I can still do anything I want,” LeBlanc says while grooming a horse outside a barn in the video. “Some things not as fast, but I’m happy to be doing them and I’m still on the right side of the dirt.” LeBlanc’s fight with cancer came in July 2007 when doctors found a tumour in his bladder after LeBlanc complained of pain and of blood in his urine following a long ride on the range. “That horse probably saved my life being so rough,” LeBlanc says of how he discovered the cancer. LeBlance was devastated by the news.

“But the hardest part was telling my 17-yearold daughter I had cancer. Her friend’s father and a friend had just died from cancer. I figured that I better fight it.” LeBlanc was immediately booked for surgery to remove the tumour from his bladder, and worried whether he could still rope and ride, as he had done all his life. “I wanted to know whether I could be by myself after. I was really stressed out.” In the end the doctors had to remove LeBlanc’s bladder, his prostate and a kidney over six months before he was in the clear. But with a new lease on life, LeBlanc got used to his new external bladder bag and even figured
out how to adapt it by fastening it to his leg so he can ride his horse, and compete in roping competitions in B.C. and Arizona, where he winters. “You can lay down and die or you can live,” LeBlanc says of the adjustment. As for why he made the video, LeBlanc says he just felt compelled to tell his story to other patients like himself who may end up in the same situation. He’s hoping his example will ease the worries of others and encourage them to be themselves, just like him. “I feel like I can whip the world.” LeBlanc is heading down to Arizona soon with Darlene, his wife of 40 years, this week to escape the cold Canadian winter and to

Wednesday Edition!
B.C. seeks to diversify wood exports
Papers need to be delivered by 5:00 pm
Tom Fletcher Black Press B.C.’s annual forest products trade mission to Asia is finding slower growth in the Chinese market, but increasing use of higher-value products such as oriented strandboard. Forests Minister Stevte Thomson and 25 B.C. forest products executives are visiting Shanghai and Beijing this week, after a stop in Japan to meet with government and industry officials. Thomson signed letter of intent with China’s Zhejiang province to develop wood frame building, in a rapidly urbanizing country that has traditionally used concrete.
In a phone interview from Shanghai, Thomson said while economic growth in China has slowed, it is still far ahead of North American rates, and Zhejiang province expects a 12.5 per cent increase in wood construction in the coming year. China still imports mostly lower-grade B.C. lumber to use for concrete forms and interior walls of its sprawling urban apartment blocks, but new construction techniques are catching on. The group toured a resort project using foam-insulated panels made from oriented strandboard and lumber supplied by B.C. producers Ainsworth Lumber, Tolko Indus-
tries and Weyerhaueser. “That’s a building system that was pioneered in Canada,” said Rick Jeffery, CEO of the Coast Forest Products Association. “Not only were they using our technology, they were using our OSB and our dimension lumber.” Jeffery said Chinese builders and furniture manufacturers are also using more coastal products, including red cedar and higher-grade hemlock. In Japan, Thomson spoke to an industry conference to assure delegates that B.C.’s pine beetle epidemic has not led to a shortage of high-grade lumber that has been long
favoured by Japanese buyers. Japan has adopted a “wood first” construction policy similar to B.C.’s, which has led to increased wood construction in a country still recovering from the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in the Fukushima region. Thomson said Japan has 420,000 seniors waiting for spaces in elder care facilities, and wood construction is being offered as a faster and greener way to meet that demand. He expects B.C. export sales to Japan this year to match or exceed the $700 million total for 2012, and also an increase in the $1.1 billion total sales to China recorded last
Just for the HEALTH of it!
year. The Canadian and provincial governments have been financing demonstration wood projects for several years in both countries, sharing the cost with industry to showcase the benefits. In Japan, the B.C. delegation visited a public market and library built near the Fukushima earthquake zone, and signed an agreement for a third facility for people left disabled by the disaster.

Halloween fun in the Cari-boo! Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Don’t be too frightened of all the ghosts, ghouls and gobblins on Halloween night.

FIRE WORKS: The City of Williams Lake is hosting its 34th annual Halloween fireworks display in the Stampede Grounds on Halloween night, Oct. 31, just down the hill from the Haunted Long-

Trick or treaters are welcomed with animated puppets and live characters meandering through graveyard and haunted pathways earning the home the nickname Nightmare on Ninth. Spooky as the house becomes on Halloween, early afternoon displays are set up so they don’t send little children running for cover. “We start early afternoon so that it is not

Doe attacks 108 Mile Ranch teen Gaven Crites 100 Mile Free Press Before stepping off the bus on a recent visit to 108 Mile Ranch, Emmett Collens spotted four deer outside and made a comment the driver thought was funny. “I hope I don’t get attacked by a deer.” On the way to his grandparents’ home on Chintu Drive on Oct. 8, Collens says he walked up to a fawn on the side of the road and pulled out his iPhone to take a photo when he heard “clack-clackclack” on the road behind him. “I turned around and there was this doe staring me down,” explains the 15-year-old from Horse Lake. “It had its ears all the way back, its hair was all standing up. I thought, ‘This isn’t good.’ I started to back away and it took a couple steps, jumped up on its hind legs and hit me on the chest with its two feet and knocked me
It started hitting me in the face with its feet ... It was kind of just stomping all wild.” - Emmett Collens down. “It started hitting me in the face with its feet.” Collens estimates the attack, which bloodied his nose and left some deep bruising and scratches on his face, lasted between 12 and 15 seconds. “It hit me a couple times pretty good on the chin. It scraped my face up with its hooves because it was kind of just stomping all wild.” When the animal finally stopped, Collens stood up and headed for his grandparents’ home nearby. After a few steps he turned and was surprised to find the same animal
trailing him about 10 yards back. He says even after he entered the home, the doe stuck around. “It was really ticked off.” Sgt. Len Butler of the Cariboo-Chilcotin Conservation Service says aggressive deer complaints are on the rise, especially in the spring when does have their fawns. “In our zone, we have so many deer populating towns and rural areas, it’s a real tough one. “It’s becoming more of a problem in a lot of these areas. Some of the bigger cities are to the point now they’re doing a cull to try to remove
some of the deer that are staying in the cities.” Collens didn’t report the Oct. 8 attack, but Butler advises people do so by calling 1-877-952-7277. “[We’re the ones that] remove an aggressive deer if that deer has attacked somebody. It’s pretty important if we’re in a town setting because of a discharge of firearms or possibly a tranquilizer or something along those lines. “If something’s attacked somebody, it has probably happened before or will happen again.” Anyone looking for more information

about reducing human-wildlife encounters can visit www. wildsafebc.com, he adds. Collens, an experienced hunter, says he thinks he was probably to blame for the attack since he got between the doe and its fawn. “I should have known not too get too close. I’ve seen lots of people get attacked by moose and seen lots of dogs get trampled by deer on YouTube.” The experience hasn’t really changed the way he thinks about deer, he adds. But he agrees there’s a moral to the story. “Don’t get in between a doe and its fawn,” he says. “Lesson learned.”

“WE WILL REMEMBER THEM” The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 139, Williams Lake, B.C. , wish to remind you of the Annual Poppy Campaign, Wreath and Cross sponsorship, and Remembrance Day celebration upcoming in early November 2013. The poppy Campaign enjoyed a gross donation income of $17,932.75, and a gross donation in of $13,107.90, all attributed to the generosity of the businesses and individuals operating and residing in the greater Williams Lake area, including the numerous communities of Central Cariboo. The net proceeds of these funds were used to provide services to our past war veterans and their families, assisting in areas where other programs do not provide funding. Bursaries, youth programs related to Remembrance Day, Veterans programs relating to “New” Veterans of todays military, and our B.C. Yukon Central Poppy Fund all received assistance throughout the past 2 years. Most of these expenses are sustained through public support for which Branch 139 praises the goodwill of the population of the Central Cariboo. We ask that you will continue with your support for our 2013 Campaign: Businesses will display trays of poppies through the period October 28 - November 11. The Cadets assist in the selling of the poppies by canvassing throughout business areas. Remembrance Day service will be held in the Gibraltar Room at the Memorial Complex on Monday, November 11th, 2013 from 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM, then move to the Cenotaph at City Hall at 10:50 AM, on completion, the parade will return to the ‘ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION’ for pot luck and entertainment. Your participation is requested. WL Legion Branch 139, President, Joyce Norberg

Gold Rush Trail advocates seek funding Photo submitted
Carole Rooney 100 Mile Free Press The South Cariboo Joint Committee (SCJC) recently received a presentation by Gold Rush Snowmobile Trail (GRST) proponents, in support of a request for funding assistance. The presentation was jointly made by GRST representative Steve Law and project partner New Pathways to Gold (NPTG) executive director Gord Rattray. Law said the NPTG is involved in this trails project under its mandate – and government funding – for economic development and investment in heritage. The presentation began with a summary of the project’s long history, which he explained began with the extensive work of the late Jack Barnett around 2000. It covered past and recent successes with funding initiatives (including approximately $600,000 in 2009/10), Law added, what the money funded, and its progress with trail grooming, marketing and capital carried out by volunteers. District of 100 Mile House council has supported the past work performed by these groups for more than a decade, including securing funds for the project in 2009, he noted. “The District had applied to Western Economic Diversification, Northern Development Initiative Trust and a couple of other parties to basically clear the trail
Significant work has been done to extend the Gold Rush Snowmobile Trail for more than a decade, including clearing existing trails of pine beetle deadfall, such as these men did last year. The project focus is now expanding to accommodate ATVs and other users on these trails. again after the pine beetle epidemic. Dead pine was falling on the trails, and made them essentially impassable. “And, [NPTG] also jumped on board and threw in a bunch of money.” This year’s goal targets trail improvements from 70 Mile House to Spout Lake, Law added, of the total of 463 kilometres of Gold Rush Snowmobile Trails spanning from Clinton to Wells. An ongoing issue is adding to and replacing current signage, he noted. “Virtually every year, some of the directional signage gets shot, taken down or disappears. And, signage is a really key thing to making a safe, enjoyable trail for the public. They need to know where they are and the fact that they are on the trail.” In addition to trail clearing and improvements for snowmobiles, Law said these trail groups also plan to open them up for other users to enjoy. “The business plan identified the need to move this to an allseasons trail. To make it economically viable, we have to do that because the ATV usage
t n e m n r e v o G
is really, really significant in terms of the economics, and it is already being used [for that].” He explained the GRST board is working with ATV/BC on this, but the main issue is the current lack of off-road vehicle legislation – to allow for connections and road crossings along the trails – which is moving slowly through the government approval process. Now, the group has a business plan for the whole trail project, Law added, and a GRST Regional Management Committee (RMC) charged with implementing it. The current project estimate is $110,000 for 2013/14 trail work, and how they plan to raise that amount is detailed in the background documents provided to the Cariboo Regional District’s SCJC. See www.cariboord. bc.ca under What’s New-Agendas, SCJCSept. 9, item 3.2 for the NPTG presentation. Law noted that this spring, the RMC laid out groundwork and plans for requesting financial support from numerous funding or-

ganizations, as many require similar contributions from other groups. “With the Cariboo Chilcotin Beetle Action Coalition [CCBAC], that was their main reason for deferring our application. They said they want to see some private commitment before they will consider it.” The group approached the District of 100 Mile House a couple of months ago, when he noted they were redirected to the SCJC for a grant-inaid request, which effectively splits its grant funding with the CRD. After a summer break, Law said the RMC is back at work pursuing the dollars to get the project going again and complete these trails, and get them into a sustainable condition. “The maintenance we want to do now is, we have to make sure that sections are wide enough to run a groomer down there.” He noted the planned trail will one day link the communities of Clinton, 70 Mile House, Likely, Wells and Barkerville.

Youth fiddlers in concert with top Canadian fiddlers Saturday The Youth Fiddle Society is hosting a public concert Saturday at the Longhouse. The concert wraps up a two-day workshop the young fiddlers have been taking this week with Ivonne Hernandez, reigning five-time Grand North American Fiddle Champion, and noted Canadian fiddle player/musical director, Calvin Cairns. There are about 30 youth participating in the workshop who will be in concert with their teachers Hernandez and Cairns.
In addition to her own shows Hernandez performs with her award-winning band Fretless with Jeremy Walsh and Mark O’Connor. An instructor at the annual Gavin Lake Fiddle Camp Hernandez and her band have toured in North America, Europe and down to South America. With her award-winning band The Fretless, Ivonne continues touring, teaching, collaborating and recording around the world, including at the Gavin Lake Fiddle Camp.
Cairns is a well known Canadian fiddler, teacher and musical entertainer who is best known for his band the Romaniacs. He has performed in Russia, Europe, Japan, Australia, United Kingdom, USA and across Canada. He has been in demand by some of this country’s most popular Celtic and Canadiana folk artists, performing and recording with Stringband, Connie Kaldor, Humphrey and the Dumptrucks, Don Freed, Spirit of the West, The Bill
Hilly Band and Stuart Mclean’s Vinyl Cafe Orchestra. The concert takes place Saturday, Oct. 26 at the Longhouse, starting at 7:30 pm. This is a family event and admission is by donation at the door which goes toward expenses to bring great instructors to Williams Lake throughout the year, says club spokesperson Angela Manning. She says snacks, water and hot chocolate will be for sale in the concession for this non-alcohol event.

As the sun shines into my window and I watch the last of the leaves ever so softly drift off the trees to the ground, I realize what an amazing fall we have had this year. Fall is one of the seasons I love the most! We have all had a wonderful fall out here so far, lots of hunters staying at the motel and the other places. It is great to have the extra people around to keep our economy growing. At the end of September we had our Salmon Festival, it was a great event! Lots of fun stuff happened at the Anvil in September as well. The Horsefly Fire Department looks like it is almost all complete now. The volunteers have spent countless hours since early June to get it to where it is now. The old building is now gone and it looks just amazing. (Job well done to all you volunteers!) I look forward to the grand opening, I will let you know if I can, when that will be, I have heard possibly in November. We have had some sad news in our community with the Cornerhouse Café closing down ( hope someone will come along and buy it!) The rest of this wonderful community has kicked into gear to provide some of the services that the café had done. The Saws is having a drop in coffee on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in the mornings (for the coffee goers). Clarkes has Nadine Duitschaever making homemade

LCSS volleyball clubs make most of short season Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The Lake City Falcons junior girls’ volleyball teams are making the most of a short season, said both the grades 9 and 10 coaches following the regional championships in Williams Lake Tuesday. Two teams from Quesnel and a team from 100 Mile House travelled to Williams Lake to join Lake City Secondary School’s grade 9 and 10 teams in the round robin tournament. The team with the most wins following the round robin was set to advance to the zone championships this weekend in Prince George. Quesnel Junior secondary, also with both a Grade 9 and 10 team, took the top spot and captured the berth to the zone championships after its Grade 10 squad went unbeaten in three matches. Quesnel downed LCSS Williams Lake Campus (grade 10s) 29-27, 25-15 and beat LCSS Columneetza Campus (grade 9s) 25-20, 25-10 before knocking off 100 Mile House’s Peter Skene Ogden Eagles, 25-14, 25-11. LCSS Williams Lake, mean-
while, defeated its Columneetza campus teammates (24-26, 25-11 and 15-10) and Quesnel’s grade 9 club (25-15, 25-14) to finish in second place. LCSS Columneetza, taking third in the tournament, picked up two wins over Quesnel’s grade 9s (25-21, 22-25, 15-10) and PSO (25-21, 25-14). Raj Lalli, coach of LCSS Williams Lake, said despite her club finishing second in the tournament they may still be participating at zones this weekend. “Quesnel qualified for zones but if they decide not to go, a notion they indicated, we will replace them,” Lalli said, adding she’s seen steady improvement to her team’s play during the short one-month volleyball season. “We had a late start, gym space issues, but our Grade 10 team will play about 20 games within a month which is a good experience for this inexperienced team.” Additionally, LCSS Columneetza coach Lacey Tomlinson said a few Grade 9 players will join the Grade 10 squad should they play at zones this weekend.

considerable margin but could not slip one past the Prince George netminder, who was stellar in the game. Despite the setback the T-wolves said they were pleased with their first tournament of the year and second-place result. Prior to Sunday’s final Williams Lake opened its tournament Friday

Birks chosen to Canada West selection camp Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Williams Lake’s Dane Birks will attend Hockey Canada’s team Canada West selection camp in preparation for the 2013 World Junior A Challenge. The Pittsburgh Penguins draft pick, currently a member of the British Columbia Hockey League’s Merritt Centennials, was among 66 players selected. Just 19 were chosen from B.C. The former Williams Lake midget Timberwolf was drafted this past summer in the sixth round (164th overall) of the 2013 NHL Draft. Players named to the Canada West selection camp roster were
Dane Birks chosen from the Canadian Junior Hockey League’s five western junior A leagues. The camp takes place Oct. 26-30 at the Markin MacPhail Centre in Calgary, Alta. Players will be divided into four teams and will play six intrasquad games in addition to daily practices.
The 2013 World Junior A Challenge will be held Nov. 4-10 at the Mariners Centre in Yarmouth, NS. Canada West will play in Group B with the Czech Republic and Switzerland. Group A will include Canada East, Russia and the U.S. Canada has appeared in six of the seven gold medal games at the World Junior A Challenges winning gold in 2006, 2007 and 2011. It settled for silver in 2008, 2009, 2012. For more information on the 2013 World Junior A Challenge visit www.hockeycanada.ca/wjac or follow along via social media at www.facebook.com/ wjrac or at www.twitter.com/hc_wjac.
Penguins feature Birks in ‘Getting to Know’ section The Pittsburgh Penguins recently added Williams Lake draft pick Dane Birks to its ‘Getting to Know’ feature section on its website. Birks, 18, was drafted in the sixth round (164th overall) of the 2013 NHL Draft. “It was an unreal day,” Birks said of the draft. “I was nervous, excited and then once I saw my name come up I was overwhelmed. To get drafted by a team like the Penguins and to have the opportunity to one day play in the NHL is a dream come true. Lots of very hard work is ahead of me to complete my dream.” Meanwhile Penguins codirector of amateur scouting, Randy Sexton, said he likes the upside of Birks’ game. “He’s a little bit of a late
I was nervous, excited and then once I saw my name come up I was overwhelmed.”
- Dane Birks bloomer, but he skates well, moves the puck well and is physical in his own way,” Sexton said. “He is one of those players that needs a little bit more time but obviously going the college route, he’ll get it.” Birks, who has committed to the NCAA division one’s Michi-
gan Tech Huskies, said his biggest strength is his ability to feel comfortable on the ice. “It would probably be my skating, just natural ability,” Birks said. “The way I see the ice is just natural to me. I’m not the biggest guy so I try to move around and use the ice a lot, see the ice very well, try to make big plays and make people better.” The six-foot-three, 190-pound defenseman was shot into NHL Draft discussions after beginning the 2012/13 year without being listed on NHL Central Scouting’s early players to watch list, however, a strong five-goal, 15-assist campaign with the Centennials earned him BCHL Rookie of the Year honours. So far in 17 games with the Centennials this season Birks has a goal and nine assists.

Special to Tribune/Advisor What a treat is waiting for you on Oct. 29. That is when the Williams Lake Film Club will show its next film, Unfinished Song. Unfinished Song is an English/German coproduction, no subtitles, rated PG 13, and runs for 93 minutes. Without the incredible actors Unfinished Song could have been a sappy, run-of-themill movie, but Vanessa Redgrave, Terence Stamp and Gemma Arterton, and many of the other old or not-so-old characters, elevate this film to a complete treat. It is sad, very sad in parts, but ultimately full of life and real laughter. If you liked the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, you will absolutely love this film. Unfinished Song is based on a play from London, Song for Marion. Terence Stamp plays Arthur, a shy and very grumpy old man who truly only loves one person, his wife Marion, played by Redgrave. The depth of their love is palpable, it speaks through their gestures but even more so through their eyes. It is a wonder to watch this in a film. Marion is battling cancer, but she is a great spirit, she wants to enjoy all what

The Williams Lake Film Club shows Unfinished Song Tuesday. is left in life, and one of the big joys she finds in her singing choir. What a wonderful group of characters that is, held together by young and charming Elizabeth, played by Arterton. As in real life you find that everyone is carrying their own burden, even the beautiful and young Elizabeth, but they also know how to take the joys in life and deeply appreciate them. Yes, there are some predictable parts in the film, again just like in real life, but the way
they are treated and dealt with is wonderful. You will cry, do bring your hankie, and you also will laugh tears. I cannot stop thinking about the choir singing “Let’s talk about Sex…” — what a complete hoot! Don’t listen to the critics who try to pan this film, they are just grumpy themselves. They do not understand what real love can do to you. Too bad — you certainly don’t want to miss it. As Marion says: What makes a song beautiful is not always

Down’s syndrome. Sandra was institutionalized in Creston for several years but was often home for extended visits. Like a barometer, Sandra continuously muttered a running commentary about what was happening in and around her. “June and Tom are

Tommy’s drinking again.” And she always talked about herself in the third person. “Sandra’s going on a trip?” she’d ask and, just in case, she always had a packed suitcase placed at the front door so she wouldn’t be left behind.

her Down’s syndrome daughter. Patricia was mauled by a grizzly bear in Alberta. She lost one of her eyes, had extensive surgeries and often suffered severe depression. During one of her depressed states, she withdrew herself from her husband and children to an upstairs room in the family home. One day her Down’s syndrome daughter came upstairs for a visit. Patricia told the
BULK FUEL
daughter she was too dark to be around the rest of the family. Without hesitating the daughter told her mom that wasn’t true. “I can see a big bright light all around you,” she told her mom. It was a scene that made me wonder if Down’s syndrome people can see us for who we really are. Is theirs a less tainted view, free of prejudice and preconceived notions? I believe so.

Find a Church... ...Sponsored by the Williams Lake Minister’s Fellowship
Well done thou good and faithful servant I have discovered that I am not able to do the things I use to do. Having purchased a little recreational lot on Quesnel Lake we have decided to make room on it for a retirement home. However it has entered into a person’s mind that the rest of the lot should look like a well groomed park, thus I am doing stuff that I once did when much younger. In my opinion, this is a job best left to younger people; or at least to someone really fit. In Scripture there is a story of a man who was really fit, a man who lived most of his life working hard. Deuteronomy 34: 1, 4, and 7 (New King James) Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah…4 Then the Lord said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ …7 Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim nor his natural vigor diminished. Here is a brief rundown of Moses’ life: 0 to 40 lived a life of relative ease, 40 to 80 life as a shepherd, 80 to 120 lead people of Israel. If you know anything about his story you may agree with me that the last 40 years of his life were the most difficult. (If you are not familiar with the story watch the
PARSONS PEN
BY Captain RandY movie Prince of Egypt or read Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy). Moses was healthy and fit to the day he died. Many of us today are striving to have that perfect body, not out of vanity but to live as long as possible. So, how did Moses do it? First Moses learnt how to do his job properly, forty years were spent taking care of sheep and raising a family. Isaiah compares us to sheep: We all, like sheep, have gone astray. Jesus also refers to people as sheep; sheep without a shepherd. He is our Shepherd reminding us that we need to know His voice. Moses
knew God’s voice and learned to follow His directive. During his years as a shepherd he also became well prepared to deal with foolish and stubborn people. Moses listened to some sound advice from his father-in-law. Our troubles begin when we think we are the only ones who can do the job right and then we get upset when no one helps. Moses gladly let others share the load, relieving him of much stress. It would seem that Moses did not worry, he trusted God. A burning bush would make me sit up and notice. Destroying a nation with plagues would make my mouth drop. Walking between walls of water on a dry seabed and seeing a solid rock pouring out water after hitting it with only my staff would all help me to understand God’s powerful leading. Moses had learned life’s lesson that in time of crisis man can call on the All Powerful God who could, and would, help him. Our trust in God may not help us to live to the ripe old age of 120, or die with perfect eye sight and natural vigor like Moses did. Trust in God will enable us to live a life worthy of receiving that desired compliment from Christ Himself; “Well done thou good and faithful servant”.

Through a haze of smoke Williams Lake Boys and Girls Club volunteers (from left) Jessica Morris, Shel Myers, Serena Petrin and Tiffany Boston show off a few props for their upcoming haunted house this Saturday and Sunday.
Zombies theme of haunted house Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The dead will walk once more this Saturday and Sunday at the Williams Lake Boys and Girls Club when the local non-profit hosts its seventh annual haunted house. Shel Myers, haunted house director with the
WLBGC, said this year’s haunted house will run Saturday and Sunday from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Admission will be by either monetary or food donation. “This year’s theme is zombies and our theme is chosen by the youth every year,” Myers said. “It was overwhelmingly zombies this year.”
Volunteers, staff and youth all come together to help design and build the haunted house, too, he added. “It’s anywhere between 12 to 20 people behind the scenes making it work,” he said. “A large number of our youth here turn out. Every year it grows a little bit.”
Meyers said what makes the WLBGC haunted house unique is that they make use of the entire building, from the inside, to the shed, to the basketball court. “The scene is the entire collection,” he said, adding he’d like to invite everyone in the community to stop by the haunted house for a visit.
Hospital shares trick-or-treating safety tips Halloween is just around the corner and the experts at BC Children’s Hospital are offering some tips to keep the parties and trick-ortreating safe. With a little planning, parents and caregivers can help prevent Halloween-related injuries: Be seen: Costume shopping — Help kids pick out costumes that fit properly, keep them warm and are bright. You want your children to be comfortable and visible to other trick-or-treaters and drivers on Halloween night. Be safe: Supervised trick-or• • • • • •
treating — Make sure your children have a responsible adult to accompany them on their trick-or-treating adventure. Skip houses that don’t have lights on and don’t approach unfamiliar animals. Be creative: Pumpkin art – Encourage young children to decorate or draw on their Halloween pumpkins. Young children shouldn’t use knives or sharp tools. Use a flashlight or other battery light instead of candles. Be cautious: Candy checks — Children get excited about their candy hauls;

keep them happy hauls by checking their treats before they eat them. If your child brings home fruit, make sure to wash and cut before eating. Avoid choking hazards for children under five by removing treats like hard candy, popcorn, and nuts. Be vigilant: Halloween driving — watch for children at crosswalks and for trickor-treaters darting into the road.

sage for drivers: “If you’re driving a vehicle — slow down — particularly when it gets dark, because it can be more difficult to see kids stepping from crosswalks or darting across a street,” Singhal said. BC Children’s Hospital is part of the Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA), a specialist in prevention. PHSA is committed to sharing expertise and knowledge to promote health and prevent illness and injury, manage chronic conditions, and lessen the burden of disease in high risk populations.

Be adventurous with a salmon ceviche Have you ever cooked a meal, only to find out the pork loin you cooked with a nut coating would make one of the guests ill, a reaction to the nuts. I was told about this prior to cooking but I suspect my one-track mind was bent on doing this nut coating, so consequently one of the guests was not able to enjoy the main course. The only good news in this, is the other six courses alone would make the average person full. This was the annual dinner I cook for the Williams Lake and District Chamber of Commerce, and we would like to thank Mike and Jackie Austin for purchasing the dinner at the last Business Excellence Awards evening, hosted by the Chamber. Much thanks to the great staff at Save-OnFoods for helping me in my two and one-half hour shopping trip for

I think this is about ten years for Save-On-foods to help sponsor Ken’s Country Kitchen dinner auctioned at the Business Excellence Awards evening. Mucho gracias. There are so many thanks I need to pass along for this dinner, however I would be certainly amiss if I did not thank my very able partner for these feasts, Taylor McGinnis. This personable young lady does the serving, helps me plate, and basically keeps me on track
— and that is a tough job. Two more years, Taylor. She works for the Chamber at the Tourism Discover Centre as one of the most able hostesses and purveyor of local tourism information.

The Legion Ladies Night events are a great way for women to get together for a little fun. Evenings such as the one Wednesday evening include dinner, a fashion show, and some lively entertainment, usually with a theme. These volunteers got into the spirit of the evening dressing the part for the 50s rock ‘n’ roll theme. Top left: Legion member Sandra Abbott wears an authentic 1957 flocked-taffeta skirt that she wore at 15 and couldn’t UTDOOR part with. The only LIVING thing missing is the crinolin. She wears it with trendy pearls, black sweater, white gloves and little purse. Top M right: sweater girl, Cathy Harris, sports bobby socks and a big bow in her hair. “I got into the 50s grove, it was fun,” Harris says. Below left: Ken Wilson, who cut the roast for the dinner wears a 50s white sport coat with a pink carnation and his wife Cynthia was among the fashion models. Bottom right: Legion servers Stephanie Bergeron (left) and Jean Lambert sport pony tails tied with bows, poodle dog skirts with cincher belts and little white shirts typical of 50s fashion fun.

REALTOR TIPS ALLERGIES IN YOUR HOME Some quick tips to help minimize allergy symptoms that may be caused from irritants in your home. • Dust and dust mites - To help minimize the spread of dust and dust wash bedding in very hot water change your vacuum filter often, and change furnace filters and clean air vents. • Pet dander, fur or hair from animals cause many allergy suffers, to react. Vacuuming once or twice a week will reduce airborne dander in your home. • Mould and Mildew are common in places like showers, tubs, walls and floors especially in the bathroom areas. Use of a mildew remover after showering and by keeping the humidity low in the bathroom (open window) will help control mold.
