BLACK FRIDAY STARTS EARLY
Williams Lake has never seen more snow fall in a 24-hour period than it did last Friday between Nov. 15 and Nov. 16. — at least since Environment Canada started recording snowfall back in 1961. “You were the top of the list as the winter storm’s centre went right through Williams Lake,” Environment Canada meteorologist Doug Lundquist said Tuesday. “Now we are into Arctic air.” The Williams Lake Airport received 51 cm, with the next highest being the Coquihalla Summit where they received 35 cm, and Allison Pass which received 32 cm. Transit buses were cancelled on Friday because of the snow and all flights into the airport were unable to land, because of a low visibility ceiling. “It was that coastal snow, heavy and wet, not that normal Cariboo dry snow that provides reasonable traction,” said Kevin Goldfuss, director of municipal services. “Who would have thought that we’d get such a major snow fall on Nov. 15.” The large snowfall took the city by surprise, Goldfuss said.

RCMP launch wandering alert program Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer After the Williams Lake RCMP helped locate a missing senior last year, his wife suggested the local detachment needed to develop a system to help locate people who are vulnerable and at risk of becoming lost. In response to her request and the large number of calls they receive to help locate people, the Williams Lake RCMP has launched a ‘Wandering Alert’ program, community safety co-ordinator Dave Dickson said Friday. “We’ve crafted a form that if you as the caregiver have concerns about the person you are looking after being a wanderer, you can give us a current photo, and important information notes on the person.” Say a person has retired from West Fraser sawmill, and likes to walk down and look in the yard, Dickson used as an example.
“We would want you to list any medical conditions, things police should know when they find them and approach them. They might liked to be called Mr. Jones versus George.” Once the form is completed, it is placed in a confidential electronic database that will be managed by security cleared volunteers. “If they are registered at the police office and someone calls us in a panic, we can quickly go to that database and immediately get it out to RCMP members, search and rescue if we need to call them in, and to all media,” Dickson said. A few years ago in Williams Lake a man went missing on a cold day. “He didn’t have dementia, but was elderly. Within four minutes of us releasing his photo we got a call saying he just got in a cab and is returning to his place of residence.”
www.wltribune.com A3
And if the family or caregiver fills out the form with a current photograph, then the police have permission to release the photo. The volunteers managing the database will update it annually and contact the person who has filled out the form. Dickson also said family living out of town can correspond electronically with the Wandering Alert program. Contact information of health care providers is valuable and provides an opportunity for further consultation and support, Dickson added. Dickson, along with Harriet Hird from Victim Services and Const. Larry Brady of the Williams Lake RCMP have developed the program. The three of them, along with half a dozen RCMP members and Cariboo Search and Rescue received some training in Williams Lake from a member of the Alzheimer Society from Kamloops.
“We’ve partnered with Interior Health, Retirement Concepts, Seniors Activity Centre and the Cariboo Friendship Society,” Dickson said, adding the forms will be available at all of those places as well as the RCMP detachment after Nov. 16. Dickson said he knows a woman who goes wandering and he’d be heartbroken if she got cold, lay down in the snow, and the RCMP didn’t have the details to try and identify her. “This way our guys can be so much more savvy in what they do,” he said, adding privacy is the big thing. The program can’t be mandated or forced upon anyone, but it will give a person who is suffering dementia or mental illness a better chance of being found quicker. For information on the program contact Dickson at david.dickson@rcmp-grc.gc.ca or 250 392-8701.

Massive snowfall prompts city and BC Hydro response Continued From Page A1 “Thursday night when the night shift left at 11 o’clock there was no snow,” Goldfuss said. “Our day shift arrived at 5 a.m. to find eight to 10 inches of snow on the ground.” More than 7,000 homes in the Williams Lake area were also impacted by power outages due to the heavy snowfall, said BC Hydro community relations co-ordinator
Dave Mosure. The last homes to have their power restored were on Hodgson Road on Monday morning. “It was 100 Mile House, Williams Lake, the whole corridor,” Mosure said. “We were calling in guys on days off, contractor crews were being used, we used everybody we could get our hands on. We definitely got tested.” Because it was the first big storm of the season, any trees that were in a weakened
We do ask the public for their patience and help ... we cannot clear the area if there are cars or carts in the way.” - Kevin Goldfuss state showed themselves, he said. To deal with the record snow Friday, Goldfuss said day crews worked steadily and all through the
weekend. “We cleaned up the downtown and trucked all the snow away Sunday,” he said. Crews began residential snow removal
on Monday, and will follow the garbage and recycling pick up schedule, which means clearing streets the night before those areas have their gar-
bage and recycling retrieved. On Wednesday the city will be working on Thursday’s route and on Thursday will be working on Friday’s route, and Friday they will be working on Monday’s route. “We do ask the public for their patience and help,” Goldfuss said. “Where they are able, to park on their own property or driveway and don’t put garbage cans out until the street is cleaned because that creates
challenges because we cannot clear the area if there are cars or carts in the way.” In fact the city is hoping to permanently align snow removal with garbage pick up and will hold a public forum on the proposed changes on Thursday, Nov. 28 in council chambers at city hall, beginning at 6 p.m. According to Environment Canada, the highest recorded snow fall for Williams Lake to date had been 42.7 cm on Jan. 7, 1961.

POLICE: Report
Vehicle thefts continue to plague city The Williams Lake RCMP continue to tackle stolen vehicles. Of the 80 calls for service they responded to during the weekend, the RCMP highlighted vehicle thefts and a break and enter. On Friday, Nov. 15 at 4:46 a.m. police responded to a report of a truck stolen from Hodgson Road. The owner said he came out to put something in his truck and discovered it was gone. The truck was locked and had three-quarters of a tank of gas. Also stolen from the truck was personal information and identification belonging to the
owner. The matter is still under investigation. *** At 10:03 a.m. on Nov. 15, police responded to Cattle Drive to a report from IRL Trucking that someone tried to steal one of the company pickup trucks overnight. There was damage to the driver’s side door handle and the ignition to the truck and the steering column was smashed. It appeared that someone pried off the driver’s side door handle to gain access to the cab and had then tried unsuccessfully to force the ignition.
No suspects have been identified. *** On Saturday, Nov. 16 at approximately 7:52 a.m. police responded to a report of a break and enter to Gordon Sceptic and Water located on Mackenzie Avenue North. The break in is reported to have happened between 3:30 p.m. Nov. 15 and 7 a.m. Saturday morning. A company representative said the front door had been pried open, that two laptops had been stolen plus a satellite radio and some tools. The matter is still under investigation. Anyone with informa-
tion is asked to contact the Williams Lake RCMP or Crimestoppers. *** RCMP responded to a report on Sunday, Nov. 17 that a Ford F-350 was stolen from the parking lot of 3036 Cariboo Hwy 97, 150 Mile House. The vehicle is described as having black fender flares, rims, 35inch oversized tires and a six-inch lift. The truck was last seen on Nov. 13. No suspects have been identified. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Williams Lake RCMP or call Crimestoppers.

Free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad. - Albert Camus
Irresponsible to ignore sunshine
Great ideas at summit
ecause I expected to be in Vancouver last weekend, this week’s column was written last Thursday. It was a collection of headlines from various news sources that, IMO, should have gotten more attention than they did. None of them concerned any of our current crop of corrupt politicians but nonetheless they were depressing — our world really is going to hell in a handbasket. Then it snowed Friday morning. That not only limited my mobility in town, it meant no trip to Vancouver. Friday night I was home alone, French watching TV, feeling sorry Connection for myself, Diana French when I accidentally came upon the musical Oklahoma on PBS with Hugh Jackman as Curly. The mobility issue persisted on Saturday with icy streets and sidewalks, but having Oh What a Beautiful Morning and other songs running through my head did wonders for my psyche. That evening I went to the Cowboy Christmas concert with Ed Wahl, Ed Peekeekoot and our own Frank Gleeson, another plus in the happy department. It would be irresponsible to ignore the rain clouds threatening the world (most recently in the form of typhoons and tornadoes) but maybe it’s just as irresponsible to ignore the sunshine. We need a balance. The women garment workers who went on strike in 1911 for better working condition had the right idea, they said they needed bread AND and roses. We all do. I have room for two headlines. “BC Ferries changes executive bonus plan to save $900,000 annually’ (Times Colonist) — but they’ll get back most of it through a salary hold back plan and raises (Province). “New warships to cost more than $100 billion Ottawa says.” (Globe and Mail) Canadian taxpayers will pay millions of dollars more for the warships than the federal government originally disclosed. No wonder there’s no money for benefits for the Afghanistan war veterans. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.
ast week, I represented Williams Lake at the BC Business Summit, featuring leaders from the province’s business community. I was part of a panel with Minister of Environment Mary Polak, Mining Association of BC CEO Karina Brino, and Pacific Oil and Gas President Ratnesh Bedi discussing the opportunities and challenges for future natural resource development in the province. The Summit had more than 600 attendees from across the province, From the the country, and the world, Mayor’s and was atChair tended by the premier and Kerry Cook provincial and federal cabinet ministers. This was an unprecedented opportunity to build a stronger economy for B.C. The major themes of the summit parallel the Williams Lake example of community collaboration and First Nations relations. We need resource development and it’s a not matter of if but how. We need to innovate and to move away from polarized positions. The importance of social license was stressed throughout the conference. Times have changed. Sgt. Ken Brissard and safer community co-ordinator Dave Dickson presented the RCMP’s third quarter statistics to Council Tuesday night, and they are encouraging. Property crime is less than half of what it was in 2008, down an average of 30 per cent from last year, and very near the 10-year low we saw in 2011. False alarms, which use up valuable RCMP and fire department resources, are also down dramatically, 29 per cent from last year, and 49 per cent from 2008. As always, there is still work to do, as domestic violence rates are increasing slightly. We are always looking at ways of improving service and efficiency. The City is proposing to restrict on-street parking on the day before your garbage and recycling collection, to help City crews make their snow removal operations quicker and more thorough. I encourage everyone to attend the forum on the proposal on Nov. 28, 6 p.m. at City Hall. Please come and share your thoughts! You can also e-mail your comments to bylawenforcement@williamslake. ca. Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.

Our Viewpoint
BC Ferries cuts disappoint Transportation minister Todd Stone delivered a huge blow to the Bella Coola Valley, and in fact the entire Cariboo Chilcotin this week with the announcement that BC Ferries is cancelling its Discovery Coast Passage sailing. The Discovery Coast Passage has been a critical piece of tourism for the Valley marketed as the “Circle Route,” which would see travellers come from all reaches to drive scenic Highway 20 through the Chilcotin and into the beautiful valley where they then caught the ferry to Port Hardy on Vancouver Island. The cut is just one of many in the ministry’s bid to save about $19 million for the beleaguered BC Ferries. While the government is cancelling the Bella Coola to Port Hardy route completely, BC Ferries is also trying to save money on the backs of seniors by instituting a 50 per cent fare on all routes where previously seniors could ride for free between Monday and Thursday. It is also reducing several sailings and considering a pilot project to consider adding lucrative gaming machines on some of the major routes between Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland. The massive cuts to all these BC Ferries routes, to take effect in April, would likely be a little bit easier to swallow if
the BC Ferries board had done the right thing and cut the exorbitant wages and bonuses given to senior management. As it is, the board instituted a twoyear wage freeze and rolled the bonuses into the regular salaries paid to executives. A small portion will be held back, to be earned if performance targets are met. Had the BC Ferries board really grasped the nettle and made some substantial cuts to the wages of its top managers, a significant amount of money would be saved (it would amount to millions) without a single sailing being cut. The real challenge that the provincial government faces is rooting out the members of the boards who run its Crown corporations, and in the case of BC Ferries, a private corporation owned 100 per cent by the province. It needs board members ready to challenge the CEOs and top managers they are supposed to be keeping watch on. It needs board members who do not blindly accept the status quo, and will look out for taxpayers and consumers. Then the public will be much better served. - with files from the Langley Times

More Viewpoints Seepage claim doesn’t Question of the week hold water
Editor: Regarding seepage rates from proposed tailings pond at Fish Lake; Nov. 8, 2013, Tribune. Taseko claims the seepage estimates done by Natural Resources Canada for the Environmental Assessment process calls the panel’s findings into question. I attended the hearing on tailings pond seepage and my notes indicate; 1.) Taseko and their consultants met face to face with Natural Resources Canada before the hearings began to address differing opinions on how
to model the seepage losses from the 12 km squared tailings pond. Knight Piesold, the consultant with the new information, attended the hearing. 2.) Taseko’s model suggested 70 liters/second of seepage would occur with 55 liters/ second seeping through the tailings embankments and 15 liters/ second seeping out the bottom of the tailings pond. The evidence presented suggested that embankment seepage is relatively easy to collect. Seepage through the “foundation” or the bottom of the pond is very difficult to manage. 3.) Dr. Smith, the indepen-
dent expert retained by the panel, stated “… foundation seepage estimates from 20 - 100 l/s is reasonable” (CEAA Document 751, Exhibit 22, p.18). 4.) The modelling work done by Natural Resources Canada suggested 100 liters/ second of foundation seepage would occur. I am not an expert but Taseko’s claim that errors around estimating seepage rates somehow draws the panel findings into question does not hold water. Rodger Hamilton Williams Lake
Time for a referendum? Editor: Re: Oct. 30/13 editorial: “Carson Drive to Fox Mountain Road project.” I believe that your statement: “The fact is Williams Lake is set to receive a $20 million plus reno to our local infrastructure
on the province’s tab,” is factually incomplete. For clarity, my understanding is that the city is preparing to budget $4 million in the current budgeting process (this is no freebie) to cover what will be the local taxpayers’ (city) share of the costs of this road
project. Please: Let’s stop the cheerleading and engage in open and constructive dialogue. Shouldn’t the city be planning a referendum on this issue?
Of 11 top wealthiest powerful corporations, eight are dominant fossil-fuel corporate players. The roots of global warming/ climate change are, above/below all, private interest profits.

Perhaps, we can all expand our imaginations to try to understand the experience of being a woman who experiences and recognizes prejudice, objectification, dehumanization and victimization. Every woman has
been there. All of your mothers and sisters and wives and daughters have experienced being women. They have all been treated as less intelligent than men, they have all watched images of sexualized girls and women swim before their eyes on calendars, television and magazines. Most of them have been harassed for being female and many of them have been assaulted for being fe-

Feminism is astronomically misunderstood and it is in all of our best interest to have everything to fit us “feminist types” imaginations. Nicole Keyes Hanceville, B.C.
Don’t change Carson Drive lights Editor: I attended the public meeting to discuss the proposal to change Highway 97 configuration at the intersections of Carson and Toop. The Ministry of Highways personnel were there to explain the two options — both of which will remove the lights at Carson and move the lights to Toop. The intersection at Toop and Highway 97 is a very dangerous intersection and many accidents occur here. I believe if we move the lights to this intersection we will be moving the
problem of an uncontrolled intersection to Carson and many more accidents will happen there. So in essence we are just moving the problem! I propose that the lights remain at Carson and a left turn light be installed — the intersection should be widened to make it safer and the left turn lane lengthened. The intersection at Toop should have a meridian along the middle of the Highway to prevent left turns and driving across the highway. It should also be widened and im-

proved. By preventing left turns and driving across the highway we will eliminate most accidents. The speed of drivers coming into our city from the north is also an issue and I would like to see the speed limit of 60 km extended further north so that drivers, entering our city, are going at city speeds as they enter our community. I am very concerned that if the Ministry of Transportation and the city go ahead with the proposal to remove the lights at Carson that our citizens will be at risk making left
turns — especially our new drivers who go to school at the Williams Lake campus on Carson. If the proposal goes through and Johnson Road is punched through to become a main artery in the city it will bring more traffic into a residential area. I felt that the Ministry of Transportation was more concerned about the grade in the highway and challenges for truck drivers stopping at the Carson intersection. These are professional drivers who have been navigating this highway successfully for years. Is that
more important than the safety of our citizens, especially our youth? I hope that the city council will make a decision based on public input and what would be the safest solution for our community! Sharon Smith Williams Lake

Mother holds out hope in son’s disappearance disappearance. Desruisseaux said it’s amazing how time can go by so fast and slow at the same time. “Another year has passed, but yet it’s been four long years of missing my son.” Fighting back the tears, she admitted she often feels guilty that she isn’t looking harder to find him. “All I can do is reach out to the media and ask people to keep looking for Tyler,” she said. “We don’t know what happened to him.” In January 2013, the RCMP launched a website with information about Tyler, asking for the public’s assistance. They confirmed he was involved in the drug trade at a “very low” level. “Given the inherent risks associated to that lifestyle, police cannot
Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer As she marked the fourth anniversary of her son, Tyler Walton’s, disappearance, Chantal Desruisseaux said the family has no new information. “There have been some leads, but they haven’t led anywhere,” Desruisseaux said from her home in Williams Lake. “There have been a couple of unidentified bodies. One was even in Australia.” Walton’s family reported his disappearance from his home in Williams Lake on Nov. 18, 2009. They had last seen him on Nov. 10, when he stopped by to visit his father, Ken Walton, at his home in Williams Lake. Tyler was 24 years old at the time of his
We (still) don’t know what happened to him.” - Chantal Desruisseaux discount the possibility that involvement in the drug trade played a role in Tyler’s disappearance,” the website noted. Police also said a number of witnesses saw Tyler in the presence of two males on more than one occasion in the days leading up to his disappearance. “One male is reported to have gone by the first name of “Mike” but that is all that is known about these two individuals at this time,” the RCMP said. “Obviously, these two individuals may have information that
would assist in the investigation and police would like to speak to them.” Tyler was Desruisseaux’s only child and they had a great relationship, she said. “Some people have suggested he left on his own accord, which at one point I would have believed, too, but I still believe he’s alive. I cannot think of any other alternative until I know any different.” He was somebody who said he wanted to go and live off the grid, yet he wouldn’t have disappeared without letting someone know
where he was going, she said. “On the other side of the coin is the nagging question that I may not want to look at the fact that he is gone, gone. That’s the hardest part, I keep going back and forth.” Closure is a weird word, she added. “No matter what we learn, it’s not going to close the situation. I think closure is overrated.” In December 2012, Desruisseaux’s sister passed away and left two granddaughters in her care. They are aged six and eight, and Desruisseaux said even though it’s been grief heaped upon grief, with the disappearance of her son, raising them is her saving grace. “They are the good thing in my life,” she said of her grand nieces.

Bella Coola to lose Discovery Coast route Caitlin Thompson Coast Mountain News Bella Coola is losing its direct summer ferry service. The Discovery Coast Passage sailing, known as the ‘Circle Route,’ which normally runs from May to September, is a crucial piece of the tourism industry in the Valley. The loss is expected to be a devastating blow for the industry. The current winter connector service by the Nimpkish will be extended year-round, connecting Ocean Falls, Shearwater and Bella Coola to Bella Bella and the north-south Prince Rupert to Port Hardy service. However, details of the service have yet to be announced. “It is sad news that BC Ferries has decided to cut the summer service,” said CCRD CAO Darla Blake. “While BC Ferries has stated they wish
to protect basic service to coastal communities for future generations, the reality is their decision will no doubt have a significant negative impact on our Central Coast tourism, economic sustainability, and opportunities for getting across to the island.” The government is insisting the cuts are necessary to keep the ferry system sustainable. In a news release, the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure declared, “the government of B.C. is charting a new course for our coastal ferries’ future. The guiding principles behind all future decisions to affect the coastal ferry service will be based on an affordable, efficient and sustainable system which protects basic service to coastal communities for future generations.” While the Bella Coola — Port Hardy route

BC Ferries is preparing to reduce its total sailings by eight per cent, in response to rising costs and declining passenger levels. Impacting our area, the Queen of Chilliwack will no longer be servicing Bella Coola as the Discovery Coast Passage Route has been cancelled. is the only route to be effectively cancelled other routes will see a reduction in service, especially those in the north and minor routes around Vancouver Island. “The first phase is service reductions to lower-use round trip sailings on the minor routes, and on the higher-cost northern routes, accounting for $14 million in net savings,” said
When it comes to Christmas, it’s all about family!
Transportation Minister Todd Stone. “These service adjustments will be implemented in April 2014.” Stone also announced seniors discounts on the routes will be cut. “As of April
1, 2014, the current 100 per cent passenger fare discount received by B.C. seniors (65 and older) travelling Monday to Thursday will be reduced to 50 per cent on major and minor routes.”
He also announced BC Ferries may add slot machines to its main routes, starting with a pilot project on sailings between Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay. Slot machines will added to vessels sailing between Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay as part of a test project by BC Ferries and the B.C. Lottery Corporation. “The government of B.C. is also considering the introduction of a pilot project to assess the viability of gaming, and is seeking feedback on introducing gaming as a permanent revenuegenerating program on major routes between Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland,” said Stone. “The pilot project would be implemented on BC Ferries’ busiest route between
Swartz Bay and Tsawwassen. If successful, gaming revenue would help reduce the pressure on fares with net revenues reinvested into the ferry system to support general fares.” Stone did not estimate how much revenue the government expected to make from the gaming proposal. BCLC will be responsible for running the slot machines, and BC Ferries employees will be trained for the dayto-day operation. While the decision to cut the service has already been made, there is a Community Engagement Meeting on Friday, Nov. 22 at Lobelco Hall at 5:30. Community members are encouraged to attend and state their views.

NEWS Town Hall meeting discusses ways to advance TRU Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer People shared ideas at the first of a series of town halls being hosted by Thompson Rivers University’s strategic priorities advisory committee in Williams Lake last Friday. “We deliberately hosted our first town hall in Williams Lake,” said TRU’s associate vice-president of marketing and communications Lucille Gnanasihamany. “In the interest of diversity, we wanted to say we embrace our regional centres, Williams Lake being one of them.” Participants jotted down ideas at stations around the room, responded to suggestions from others, and
shared in a large group. Some of the suggestions from the floor included more programming, diversity of students and knowledge of technology. If TRU is going to offer distance education it’s important for students and faculty to be able to work well together through the Internet, one person suggested. Williams Lake city councillor Laurie Walters said she likes what’s happening as far as growth of the university goes and connecting the community with the university is crucial to keep that growth continuing. “Having the youth stay in our community longer and having that energy of youth being resurgent in the community will help Wil-

TRU’s president Alan Shaver said the university is trying to
offer something for everyone and it’s important to determine what are the most important programs to offer for each community.
Bylaw could give more funds Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer If accepted, a new bylaw could give the Williams Lake Central Business Improvement Area more funds to work with, said WLCBIA president Sheila Mortenson Thursday. “Over the past five years, we have had no money to leverage grants for things like signage directing visitors to our downtown or banners for our streets,” Mortenson said. “With the renewal the BIA will have money to put toward things like a public washroom in the downtown core and alleyway lighting.”
In the proposed new bylaw, the owners of 203 parcels of property in the downtown would be charged a slight increase in the tax levy monies collected from class five and class six assessed properties. The increase would and help grow the organization’s budget by increments during the next five years. Currently the tax levy rate is to collect no more than $1.25 per $1,000 of assessed value of land and improvements or the amount of $79,650, whichever, is less. Notices have gone out to property owners and in newspaper ads and unless city
council receives a petition against the levy containing more than half of the landowners representing at least 50 per cent of the assessed value of land improvements, the bylaw will be adopted. The deadline for receiving petitions against is Dec. 13. “Most businesses are paying $400 and under,” Martenson said of the present rate. With the increase the rate would go up about 14 cents per $1,000 of assessment. Mortenson said the value of a strong vibrant downtown cannot be measured until it’s lost.

Technology makes it possible for campuses to link up with stateof-the art facilities at other campuses, Shaver added.
Sharon Taylor works with immigrants who arrive in Canada, often with univeristy degrees, but need to gain English language skills. “The university no longer offers those bridging language courses,” Taylor said. Dr. Ray Sanders, executive director of Community U and Williams Lake Campus, said he was pleased Williams Lake was the first location for the town hall meeting. “I always enjoy seeing the strong support for our campus and the community,” Sanders said, “We had a great turnout and are pleased that so many braved the inclement weather to attend.” The next steps are to continue to host a series of town hall
meetings throughout the TRU region, continue to receive input through a variety of media, consolidate the input and begin to move forward on making recommendations, Sanders explained. Dr. Robert J. Higgins Assistant Professor sits on the committee from Williams Lake. The committee is comprised of 10 students, 10 faculty and 10 community members. “Considering we held the meeting at 9 a.m. on a day when even staff and faculty at TRU were not sure they would be able to get to work because of the heavy snow, it was a huge success,” Higgins said. “We had around 37 people in attendance with diverse interests and active feedback.”

Giving the gift of Christmas With all the snow on the ground, it’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. It’s hard to believe that November is already winding down and the holiday season is almost here. Christmas time is all about family. For many of us, the holidays mean getting together for a big dinner, and opening presents on Christmas morning. For many people, however, the Christmas holidays can be a stressful time. For those on a fixed income or working parttime, it may be difficult to get by at this time of the year. Parents may worry about how to provide the joys of Christmas for their kids, while still making their bill payments. Everyone should have the chance to enjoy the holidays on a full
MLA Musings Coralee Oakes
stomach, and without worrying about how to make ends meet. After all, while Christmas is a time for getting together as a family, it is also a time for coming together as a community. It’s the time to give a helping hand, and make sure everyone can share in the holiday cheer. Every year around this time, the Salvation Army kicks off its annual kettle campaign, to raise money to help those in need. Bell ringers and red kettles become a familiar sight around the country, as one of Canada’s biggest and most recognizable charitable events gets underway. The annual
kettle campaign supports a wide range of Salvation Army programs, and has been going strong for more than a century. But volunteers and donations are needed to make it possible.
This year, let’s all take the time to give back to the community. Volunteer with or donate to the Salvation Army’s kettle campaign or any of the other great chari-
ties here in Williams Lake, and help give the gift of Christmas. Coralee Oakes is the MLA for Cariboo North and is the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

Life & Legacy Pre-Planning a Funeral Death is not a topic many people prefer to discuss. However, discussing funeral planning and making arrangements can be a smart financial move and one that limits large decisions at a time of heightened emotions. Every year millions of people make the decision to pre-plan a funeral. The process is also known as pre-need planning. Individuals can even take out insurance policies that direct benefits to funeral expenses. The main purpose of pre-need planning is to alleviate the financial burden and decision making during times of grief and stress. Well executed plans can make the funeral process run like a well-oiled machine. It’s never too early to begin pre-planning a funeral. Making a list of information that will go to a trusted family member, executor of one’s estate or a funeral director is one way to start. Here are some items to include: name, date of birth, place of birth, social security member, location of will, military service, cemetery or crematorium, organ donation preferences, funeral and/or wake preferences, name of funeral home and director, copies of receipts and contracts for any services purchased, any other important information, such as location of safety deposit box information, attorney names, etc. There are very good reasons for pre-need planning. All arrangements can be thoroughly considered and spelled out so they meet a person’s desires. If he or she has a preference in cemetery or prefers to be interred at a mausoleum, these requests can be expressed and not assumed by family members. Pre-planning also enables a person to shop around for the most affordable services, caskets and funeral homes. Because the average cost of a funeral is between $10,000 to $15,000, it is important to spend money wisely. Preplanning also helps avoid inflation of costs later on, enabling a person to lock in the cost of services now. Stress and grief can make family members unable to cope with decisions during the time of death. As a result, one of the most important reasons for pre-need planning is to make the process one in which close friends and family members can come to grips with the death, rather than having to run around for a few days and make arrangements in haste. This way loved ones can simply remember a person how he or she was instead of choosing clothing, disposition places, service wording, and the like. A funeral director can walk a person through the process of pre-planning a funeral. He or she is often licensed to sell cemetery plots and can take much of the work out of the process. A community or family-owned business may have a rapport in the area and offer the best deals or the desired level of personalized service. It is an honour for our staff to care for the families of the Williams Lake and Cariboo-Chilcotin areas. Alternative Funeral Services

Singing through the noise Tuesday at the nature centre Singing Through the Noise: How birds compensate for the effects of urbanization on their communication is the topic of an evening program at Scout Island Nature Centre next week with Stefanie LaZerte. LaZerte, a fourthyear PhD candidate at the University of Northern BC who has completed biology degrees with a focus on animal behaviour at University
of Toronto (BSc) and McGill (MSc) will give the presentation on Tuesday, Nov. 26, starting at 7 p.m. She has been interested in animal behaviour ever since she was little and read classics such as Konrad Lorenz’s King Solomon’s Ring, Jane Goodall’s In the Shadow of Man, and, Hugh Lofting’s Doctor Doolittle. She is accustomed to dealing with copi-
ous amounts of noise from the three lively budgies who share her home. In the summary of her presentation LaZerte says bird song is an important form of communication and is used in territory defence and mate attraction. However, urbanization may interfere with bird communication.
Urbanization results in habitat changes which can alter habitat acoustics, as well as increased noise levels. “We know that some birds can compensate for these changes, but we know little about which species are capable of doing so or how,” LaZerte says. “In this presenta-
tion, we will explore some of the ways birds are affected by noise and how they can ch ange the way they sin g to compensate, including a look at my research comparing the relative abilities two species of chickadee (black-capped and mountain) to vocally adjust to urbanization.”

Free swim, stories, music at the recreation complex LeRae Haynes Special to Tribune/Advisor Making family fun free and accessible in Williams Lake is the focus of National Child Day on Nov. 20 and 23. Families and kids can enjoy a free swim at Cariboo Memorial Complex thanks to members of the Early Children Development Network (ECDN) in Williams Lake. On Wednesday, Nov. 20 the wading pool is open from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. and the pool is open from 5:30 to 8 p.m. for the event, which includes a pajama story time and a snack after swimming. “What’s so fun about this is seeing families spending time together,” says Joan Lozier, School District 27 early years co-ordinator. “It represents what it means to look at the whole child — the physical part, the literacy connection and the social aspect. It’s great to see young children sitting on mom and dad’s lap reading a story together after a swim. It’s the whole
What’s so fun about this is seeing families spending time together.”
picture.” Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex, Children First, Cariboo Regional District library and Success by 6 are behind the family swim sessions, and children’s services manager at Women’s Contact Society Beaulah Munson said that at this second annual event they have extended the hours to accommodate families with younger children. “The purpose is to make us aware of our amazing kids and celebrate their awesomeness. What’s so fun is that kids can get out of the pool, have a shower and enjoy an interactive story time in their pajamas with their parents and a group of new friends. Last year we sent a book and a toothbrush home with the kids,” Munson explained. “It was a wonderful
bonding opportunity for parents and kids to enjoy a story read by somebody else. Parents hold their kids on their lap or sit beside them, and the children are so excited to have mom or dad beside them listening to the story.” Another part of the event ‘expansion’ is holding second free family swim on Saturday, Nov. 23 from 1:30 to 4 p.m. for parents who find weekend afternoons more convenient. The second free family swim also includes a snack, a gift bag and fun with music with Success by 6. “It’s such a privilege to be part of a coalition working together for families in our communities,” Munson continued. “I’m really looking forward to these fun swims. Children are unspeakably delighted to have that
experience with their parents. Last year the children were so tickled to see the other kids they’d been in the pool with, sitting on the carpet and sharing stories.” Speech and language pathologist Alys Wardlaw said that celebrating National Child Day is a great way to focus on our most precious resource – our young children. “These free family swims, with story time and music for little ones are accessible to the whole community. This is for everyone,” she said. “These are our future leaders and we want them to be wellrounded from childhood; our support of children and families is so important.” For more information about the free family swim sessions, contact the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex at 250-3987665.

White in top four at Canadian rodeo finals LeRae Haynes Special to Tribune/Advisor Former Williams Lake resident Kirsty White competed in barrel racing at the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association finals in Edmonton, Alta., winning nearly $24,000 and qualifying for the Calgary Stampede next summer. This was her first time competing in the finals, held at Rexall Place, and she came in fourth overall in Canada. She also won Cowgirl of the Year last year in the Canadian Pro Rodeo Association. She has competed seven times at the Calgary Stampede. “It’s hard to get in there now because they changed the format about four years ago and only take four or five of the top girls in Canada,” she explained, adding that she is the only Canadian in the top four. Barrel racing is a true team effort, according to White, who said that she raised and trained her seven-year-old horse Racey herself. She added that Racey was the youngest horse at the finals. “Besides athleticism, a good race horse needs to have a lot of ‘try,’ a big heart, willingness and grit,” she said. “I share that with her.” There were no ‘nerves’ for her this time around; she said she felt very excited and fortunate to be running for that kind of money. “I was feeling very blessed. When you work very hard and when it works out, you just really appreciate all the effort that went into it,” she explained. “I knew Racey had a good chance of doing very well, and that it was up to me to set her up to win.” She said that Racey is a complicated, intuitive horse and was difficult to train. She also stated that her more than 25 year experience as a trainer and rider really came into play. “It really prepared me for this one,” she noted. “A lot of people would have gotten frustrated with her. She’s ‘electric,’ and when you ask her for an inch she gives you a mile. “She doesn’t know how to do anything halfway, and puts everything she has into everything she does,” White continued.

“She’ll lay down her life for me.” Racey knows when she’s done well, according to White. “She’s very sensitive: when you raise your voice to her she knows you’re upset. When she does well I hug her and I think she knows,” she said. “She tries so hard and is so

made her a good luck beaded pouch to put on her saddle. “My sister Alison put a photo of my mom inside,” she said. “So, I might have had a little help on this one — an angel beside me.” White is currently headed to Arizona where she rides and trains during the winter.

Williams Lake Blue Fins swim club head coach Chad Webb said despite a smaller turnout from his club than expected due to Friday’s snow storm, the team put forth one of its best efforts over the weekend in Prince George at its first big meet of the year. “[We] had 30 swimmers that entered the Prince George swim meet and with the bad weather conditions only 22 managed to make the whole trek to compete,” Webb said. “It was unfortunate timing for the large dump of snow.” With a slightly smaller group arriving at the pool than expected the team still made a big splash. “There were so many great performances that it was hard to pick a swimmer of the meet from our club,” he said, adding the club’s older swimmers had just come off a hard week of training because of their week off school. “We added some hard dry-land [training] last week and extended morning swims for a pretty tough week of training that they handled extremely well with some fast swimming to finish the week at the meet. “All of the swimmers had significant improvements but Madison Blusson, notably, swam seven out of eight best times extending her great season so far.” Trayden Stewart was swimmer of the meet

Minor hockey hopes to fill trucks with food Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Karen Chabot, vicepresident of the Williams Lake Minor Hockey Association, says for years the community has helped support the local youth sports organization. Now, she says it’s their turn to give back. This year, for the first time ever, the WLMHA
has launched a Christmas Food Drive involving all of the association’s players and teams. “The community is a generous supporter of WLMHA and you get looking at how much they give to the kids, not just in hockey, but in all the sports associations,” she says. “We appreciate them, so organizing a food drive to support our local food bank and
Salvation Army makes sense.” The Williams Lake Salvation Army will supply more than 250 families with Christmas hampers this holiday season, along with their regular food bank services and breakfast and lunch programs. “As an association we would like to help them fill the shelves,” she says. “It’s their busy sea-

son and we’re a winter sport so it seems like a good fit.” Between now and Dec. 1 players and teams within the WLMHA will be collecting as much food as possible for the local food bank. With 35 teams participating Chabot says the food drive challenge is the first of what she hopes will become an annual event. “If we had truckloads when this was all done, that would be a great thing to have,” she says. “It touches a lot of families in our town so hopefully we can help as many people as we can.” As an added incentive players will be competing amongst one another during the food drive. The team that collects the most food (per player) in both the junior and senior divisions will be awarded a team party. Novice, atom and atom development play-
ers will compete in the junior division and peewee, bantam, midget, peewee rep, bantam rep and midget rep players will compete in the senior division. “The winning teams will have their choice of a team party at Boston Pizza or a night at the movies for the team,” she says. Donations will all be compiled and collected Sunday, Dec. 1, at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. Chabot says while the food drive is a WLMHA initiative they won’t turn anyone away who wants to help donate. “If people want to help us out, or if they know someone attached with minor hockey, get in touch with them,” she says. “Or if they don’t know where to go they can drop items off at the minor hockey office [Cariboo Memorial Complex].”

Forum on Proposed Residential Parking Changes Nov. 28 In order to increase the effectiveness of snow removal in residential areas, the City of Williams Lake is proposing to align snow removal with the garbage and recycling pickup schedule, and restrict parking streets for a 24 hour period the day preceding the scheduled garbage pickup (i.e. if an area has garbage pickup on a Tuesday, street parking is not permitted on Monday.) Vehicles parked on the street interfere with the proper cleanup of snow, and those found doing so will be towed. This change would limit the impact on most residential areas to only one set day a week, and allow snow removal crews to have these areas completely cleaned so that the garbage containers can be placed on the street for the day of their pickup. Snow plowing will continue to be done as needed. A public forum on the proposed changes will take place at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 28 in Council Chambers at City Hall, 450 Mart Street. All residents are encouraged to attend to learn about the proposed change and to provide feedback. The City welcomes all comments on the proposed change. Comments can be e-mailed to bylawenforcement@williamslake.ca, or written comments can be dropped off at City Hall, 450 Mart Street.

T-wolves narrowly miss semifinal in Salmon Arm The Williams Lake Bantam Rep Timberwolves finished a tournament in Salmon Arm over the weekend with a threewin, one-loss record. The T-wolves de-
feated Quesnel, 6-3, in the consolation final Sunday to wrap up its tournament. Dylan Derose posted the win in goal for Williams Lake, with William Payn-
ton leading all scorers with four points (3-14). Corey Loring (11-2), Dylen McNeill (0-2-2) also chipped in. Williams Lake was in a four-way tie
for first place after the round robin but failed to advance to the semifinals after a mathematical tiebreaker was used. One more goal for, or one less against, dur-
60-centimetres fresh
ing the three roundrobin games would have advanced the T-wolves to the semifinal. The lakecity squad opened its tournament against West Kelowna with a 3-2 win. Hayden Lyons picked up the win in goal, while Paynton (0-3-3), Daine Dubois (2-0-2), McNeill (10-0) and Cody Swan (0-0-2) provided Williams Lake’s scoring. Williams Lake later beat Salmon Arm, 4-2, before dropping a hard-fought battle to Kelowna’s Pursuit of Excellence, 6-4, leaving them on the outside looking in of Sunday’s semifinal.

corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a governmentenforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one
of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he’s had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, URINETOWN is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very
notion of what a musical could be, URINETOWN catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter, states the musical’s promotion.

Question
Cadillac in the rear-view mirror of the European premium brands 2014 Cadillac CTS One auto trend that shows little sign of waning is the move towards more luxury or premium cars by manufacturers and consumers alike. As baby boomers age, they have earned the nicer things in life, and the offspring of baby boomers are getting used to the finer things in life, so more automakers are moving upscale. The Europeans do luxury and performance better than most and the Japanese luxury brands have been putting in their time to becoming a real force. But long before the Japanese, there have always been the American luxury brands, with many firsts in features and technology. Established in 1902, Cadillac is one of the oldest, along with Mercedes-Benz, and continues to be General Motors’ flagship in terms of refinement and technology. Looks The smaller Cadillac ATS was released a year ago and went on to win the North American Car of the Year award. General Motors has taken that platform and elongated it to produce the lightest mid-sized car in its class. It’s a full 173kg lighter than the benchmark BMW 5-Series it competes against, and 34kg lighter than the outgoing car. A lighter car, made of

Verdict The price of the CTS ranges from about $51,000 for the base model to $66,000 for the top premium trim level. The Vsport, high performance model is priced at almost $75,000. The Cadillac CTS is not an inexpensive car, but it offers many features like standard heated and vented leather seats, Bose stereo and push button start even on the base model. Compared to some of the other mid-sized luxury sedans it is less expensive, plus it is a worthy car for any driving enthusiast.

Perpetual Driving Self-Betterment: Because You’re Worth It By Alexandra Straub
B.C. race car driver Cherie Storms told me she was taking an advanced driver training course to appease her father’s wishes. She’d been putting it off since teenagedom. That said, her father is an accomplished racecar driver and a proficient motorist, so you could argue it was an inevitability. But she had to find the desire in herself first. What followed, even she didn’t think would happen. She recently took home the championship title for the B Spec series in her Mazda2 for the 2013 race season. She grew up in a motorsports household but it wasn’t until she actually got behind the wheel at the driving course that her mindset changed. “I was just overwhelmed

with all of the technical aspects that it takes to be a good driver,” she stated. It’s like what my grade 12 math teacher always said, “Math is not a spectator sport.” There was even a poster on the cubicle wall to remind us. The same thing goes for driving. Except there’s no
poster in the cubicle for that! We need to be an active participant, not a wallflower. Anyone who has taken advanced driving courses will know exactly what Cherie is talking about. It’s not just about knowing how to shift gears on a manual transmission without jerking the car, or parallel parking your sedan without curbing the rims. Driving is so much more. I understand that this mode of transportation is a necessity for many. And it’s something done out of convenience rather than love. Kind of like laundry or grouting the bathroom floor tiles. Then again, for others, it’s a passion. Myself included. Taking a specialized course, whether it’s a track day or a race school isn’t just for wannabe racers. It’s for everyone. And we can all

Every time you get behind the wheel of a vehicle, there’s a possibility you can change your life or the lives of others. We might not think too much about it, but operating a vehicle is a huge responsibility. Poor driving habits, not shoulder checking, not using your signals, driving
in the left lane when you’re not passing are minor details in the grand scheme of things, but have a large impact. It’s never too late to refresh the basics and then pick up a few new good habits. For example, if you look at any of the top athletes in their sport, they’re training

Merc E-Class is a class of its own By Bob McHugh
Mercedes-Benz E-Class 2010 to 2012 An all-new 2010-model year E-Class Coupe beat its sedan counterpart into Canadian Mercedes-Benz dealerships, in mid-2009. Style, safety and comfort are fundamental characteristics of an E-Class, which is considered to be one of the safest cars in the world. This generation E-Class came with ten air bags and a new Pre-Safe system that readies all on-board safety systems, when it detects that a collision may be about to happen. A car to savour on a long road trip, this E-Class came with a new “Intelligent” body structure that’s 30 per cent more rigid than its predecessor, incredibly comfortable seating and a newly developed suspension with shock absorbers that automatically adjust to a driving situation. An optional air suspension was also available with an electronic damping system. The E350 (coupe or sedan) is powered by a 3.5 litre V6 with 268 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. The E550 (coupe or sedan) has a 5.5 litre V8 that can generate 382 hp and 391 lb-ft of torque. The sedan also comes in a high-performance AMG 63 edition with a 6.2-litre V8 that makes 518 horsepower and 465 lb.-ft. of torque. All three engines are mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission and drive goes to the rear wheels of the Coupe and to all four wheels of the Sedan. The

rear-drive 3.5L V6 gets best fuel economy at 11.9 L/100/km in the city and 7.6 L/100/km on the highway. The 6.2L V8 is the gas guzzler, with a city/highway rating of 16.5/10.2 L/100/ km. All three engines also
prefer premium fuel. A standard Dynamic Handling package also allows the driver choose a sporty-set-up at the touch of a button. This changes the continuously variable damping, the speed-sensitive power steering (with variable centering), ESP/ASR (traction control), accelerator response, and speed of automatic gear changes. New active safety innovations included Attention Assist, which is a driver drowsiness monitor, PreSafe, which is preventative occupant protection system, Adaptive High Beam Assist, which automatically dims headlight high beams, and an automatic emergency braking system called Distronic Plus. Attention Assist is a warning system that can sense
a drop in driver attention level. It continuously monitors more than 70 different driver performance parameters, such as erratic steering behaviour, and will signal when it’s time for the driver to take a break. Four new E-Class models were added for the 2011 model year: an E350 4MATIC station wagon, E350 BlueTEC diesel sedan, and two convertibles, the E350 cabriolet and E550 cabriolet. At highway cruising speeds you can barely hear the E350 BlueTEC diesel engine, throttle response is fast (for a diesel) and pulling power (398 lb ft of torque from 1600 to 2400 rpm) is phenomenal. Engine upgrades followed in 2012. The E350 4MATIC got a direct-injection 3.5-litre V6. The E550 4MATIC got
Sure, he gets a break, but he’s constantly training to be faster and stronger. In another interview, I chatted with Izod Indy racecar driver Simona de Silvestro. She tells me that there’s really no such thing as an “off-season.” She says she trains all year long. In fact, she trains harder when she’s not always behind the wheel of a car to prepare for the upcoming races. If the pros do it, we should to. Some of the most fun I’ve
a 4.6-litre bi-turbo V8 and the E63 AMG got a 5.5-litre bi-turbo V8. All models also receive a revised transmission, electric power steering and LED license plates. Even though owner costs
tend to be higher than average, the E-Class made Consumer Reports’ ‘Recommended list of cars to buy and the E350 BlueTEC was singled out for special praise. If style, comfort
and safety top your auto “wish list”, and you’ve got the money, consider the remarkable Mercedes-Benz E-Class. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc. ca

Truck tires tread lightly in the snow By Ian Harwood
The temperature is starting to drop, the leaves are clogging up the streets and snow is beginning to fall in parts in parts of B.C. Driving in the winter season brings challenges no matter which part of the province you call home. My remarks are aimed chiefly at truck owners but the message is common for all: driver and vehicles must be equally prepared. In winter, braking and stopping vehicles of all kinds is perhaps where most of us get into trouble. The tires play a critical role in stopping the vehicle, and so they need even more care and attention than in the other seasons. Most SUVs have a passenger car tire classification with M+S stamped on the sidewall, for Mud and Snow and are considered all- season tires. If it is not, your vehicle must be fitted with tires suitable for any type of climate, even the most severe ones. In winter the pressure

’’
of the tire must also be controlled more frequently. This is because a reduction of the outside temperature causes a contraction of the air inside the tire, accelerating the normal and gradual pressure loss process by a value around 1-2 PSI for each 5° C decrease in temperature. Contrary to popular opinion, a lower inflation pressure than normal does not improve tire traction on snow. It makes them much more prone to damage. Always remember
that in any season and with any temperature, insufficient pressure is always the main cause of tire damage. Use brakes carefully. Brake early. Brake correctly. It takes more time and distance to stop in icy conditions. Watch for slippery bridge decks, even when the rest of the pavement is in good condition. Bridge decks will ice up sooner than the pavement. Do not use the cruise control in winter conditions. Even roads that appear clear can have sudden slippery spots and the short touch of your brakes to deactivate the cruise control feature can cause you to lose control of your vehicle. Don’t get overconfident in your 4x4 vehicle. Remember that your four-wheel drive vehicle may help you get going quicker than other vehicles but it won’t help you stop any faster. Besides, many 4x4 vehicles are heavier than passenger vehicles and actually may take longer to stop. And don’t bank on your 4x4’s

Last laugh on hydro bill with electric car People point and laugh at Jim Knowles when he drives his Smart Fortwo Electric Drive through downtown Campbell River. But he and his wife Tina have the last laugh when they open up their hydro bill. “I think the last bill was just a few dollars more than the one we got before we bought the car in July so
that’s inexpensive driving,” said Knowles. “I work out at the airport and so I travel about 10 kilometres each way every day. I never let the battery go below 20 percent but I still find I can sometimes go four days before I plug it in overnight.” In the summer, Knowles said he can easily get up to the 160 km range on a
single charge but knows the Vancouver Island winter will take that down to around 120 as the wipers and heater take their energy toll. “We moved from Ladner three-and-half years ago with our Smart Diesel. I think people here thought we would by something a little bigger – this is the truck capital of the Island after all.”
But they came back from a car-shopping jaunt from Richmond with the little electric car, which set them back around $26,990 less a generous BC government rebate of $5,000. “We stopped in Qualicum Beach to charge it for a couple of hours and made it back here easily.” The car charges on what is called a level one (basic)

charger but with rebates now offered on fast chargers, they are contemplating investing in one. Knowles got in touch with Driveway to tell of his experiences with the smart car, following our launch piece on the BMWi3 electric car a few weeks ago. We would like to hear from others, who are driving pure electric vehicles in rural
Yes, trucks, larger cars and SUVs will always dominate in parts of the province where are harsh winters are commonplace and distances travelled are greater. But cars like the Smart and i3 maybe have a role to play as a family’s second vehicle in those locations. What do you think? keith.morgan@drivewaybc. ca

Jason and Pharis Romero perform at the Limelight in June in a concert of songs from their second album Long Gone Out West Blues that won the Canadian Country Folk Awards Traditional Singer of the Year Award this month.
Romero: traditional singer of the year Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer With a brand new baby at home Pharis and Jason Romero weren’t able to attend the Canadian Country Folk Awards banquet in Calgary last week, but they are thrilled with their two nominations and a win. Their duet album Long Gone Out West Blues released in February was nominated for Traditional Album of the Year Award and Traditional Singer of the Year/The Sue Goldberg Award. Pharis won for Traditional Singer of the Year/The Sue Goldberg Award. Unfortunately, Pharis says the rules only let them put one name forward in the traditional singer of the year category. They chose to put her name forward, but she says the award is really for both of them. “I was totally shocked to win,” Pharis says. “In our minds the award is for both of us even if my name is on it. “We are a team. It wouldn’t be the album that it is without both of us on it. We help each other to be better singers.” Seventy artists and groups were nominated in 19 categories of the Canadian Country Folk Awards held at the University of
Calgary Theatre Nov. 8-10 and hosted by CBC’s Shelagh Rogers and musician Benoit Bourque. Other nominees in the Traditional Singer of the Year/The Sue Goldberg Award category were Natalie Edelson of The Blue Warblers for Birds; Ian Bell for Forget Me Not, When Far Away; Ken Whiteley for The Light of Christmas; and Mary Jane Lamond for Seinn. In addition to Pharis and Jason’s Long Gone Out West Blues album, nominees in the Traditional Album of the Year category included Lume, Lume by Lemon Bucket Orkestra; Mosaik by Vishten; Tune Tramp by Erynn Marshall; and the category winner Seinn by Mary Jane Lamond and Wendy MacIsaac. These days Pharis and Jason are sticking close to their Horsefly home with their first baby, Indigo Hope Romero, born Oct. 31 at home with her two sisters, mother and a mid-wife by her side. The baby’s middle name, Hope, is a family tradition shared by Pharis, her mother, and her grandmother. Pharis says she and Jason are already writing songs inspired by their first child. “I think Jason has already written a few new banjo songs
and I sing to her quite a bit so new little songs are coming out all the time,” Pharis says. “She’s pretty fun to sing to.” Pharis is on the schedule to sing at the Medieval Market this Saturday with her sister, Marin Patenaude, but whether she is actually able to make it to the event will depend on the baby. If she can’t be there to sing, people will still be able to get copies of their albums at the market. In June Pharis and Jason were special guest performers at the live Prairie Home Companion radio show in Seattle. There they were invited to join the show in New York this December. But with the new baby they have rescheduled that appearance for next April. Based in St. Paul Minnesota, she says the Prairie Home Companion is a travelling musical radio show with a 40-year history and more than four million listeners. She says they have scheduled a short tour to Alberta in February to see how travelling with the baby goes and already have bookings set up for next summer at a pace they hope will be manageable with their new baby. “It’s pretty neat,” Pharis says
of motherhood. Pharis and her siblings have been playing music together as a family with their father Geoff Patenaude since they were young. While earning a degree in biology at the University of Victoria Pharis played with a number of groups and after university teamed up with the band Outlaw Social. Her degree is in biology which took her around the province for a few years For a number of years she worked as a biologist on mountain pine beetle studies and silviculture studies. She also taught marine biology to students on sail boats and environmental education in classrooms across B.C. before settling into her musical career. In addition to making music together Pharis and Jason make banjos together at their home in Horsefly. “We are avid nature people,” Pharis says. “There are a lot of animals and birds on the migration path where we live and it gives us a lot of pleasure knowing they are there.” Earlier this year, the Romero’s first album A Passing Glimpse won the Canadian Folk Music Association’s New/Emerging Artists of the Year Award.

John Allan Roberts (Oct. 27, 1922 – Nov. 6, 2013)
Flying veterinarian and historian will be missed Sage Birchwater Special to Tribune/Advisor The Cariboo lost a great link to the past with the passing of Dr. John Roberts on Nov. 6, 2013. He died quietly at home sitting in his favourite chair, 10 days after celebrating his 91st birthday. John was born in Melbourne, Australia on Oct. 27, 1922. He left high school with a Grade 10 education to join the Australian Armed Forces when the Second World War erupted. After two years at the Royal Australian Military College he joined the air force and learned to fly de Havilland Tiger Moths and twin engine Avro Anson bombers over the Indian Ocean. He was deployed to England towards the end of the war, arriving a week after D-Day in mid-June 1944, and spent his military career flying about a dozen different planes as they came out of the factory. After the war he returned to Australia, but saw no future for himself there. In 1952 he immigrated to Canada, and managed to finish three years of high school in 16 weeks. He then enrolled in the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph and supported
himself as a student on weekends by training pilots for the Royal Canadian Air Force flying Chipmunk airplanes. He also worked part time for a local veterinarian. John met Anna Brown on a blind date while still a student. Anna was doing research in plant pathology for the federal government in Ottawa, and when John graduated in 1958, they were married. On their honeymoon the couple headed west to British Columbia to look for a place where John could set up a veterinary practice. On Anna’s insistence they drove north to the Cariboo to have a look at the migratory birds she heard often stop near Williams Lake. When John learned there was no veterinary service north of Kamloops, he decided to set up his practice in Williams Lake and try it out for a year. The couple rented two rooms on North Lakeside – one room to live in and the other for a veterinary clinic – and John literally hung up his shingle along Highway 97. When they bought some property at the end of South Lakeside, John began building their house and veterinary clinic there. He would paddle his

If a customer came by Anna would hang up a white sheet, and John would paddle back across the lake to perform his veterinary duties. John was paid by the government to inoculate cattle for brucellosis
UNBC South-Central Region
and test for tuberculosis on ranches across the region from Clinton to Quesnel, and Horsefly to Anahim Lake. He quickly learned that the easiest way to get around the vast Cariboo Chilcotin was by plane. In 1959 he bought a Piper Super Cub and used skis, floats or wheels as the seasons
determined to make his house calls, and John became known as the flying veterinarian. It was while visiting the ranching families across the region that John gained a passion for local history. While administering to the veterinary needs of the ranches, John spent many hours asking questions and learning
the family legacies of the early settlers. In the course of his 55 years in the region, he amassed an extensive resource of documents, photographs, historical records, books and knowledge. Besides his own personal collection, John spearheaded the creation of the Williams Lake Archives in the
local library and wrote two books on the history of the region. In 1999 he self-published the limited edition book Cariboo: An Historical Narrative, after researching several months in the London archives and reading the journals and diaries of people who had come to British Columbia. Prior to that he published a small booklet in 1979, Cariboo Chronicles, to commemorate Williams Lake’s golden jubilee. In 1977 John was appointed coroner for the Cariboo Chilcotin region, and served in this capacity until 1987. He ended his veterinary practice in 1982 and this allowed him more time to pursue his love of history. John was well known for his wry wit and dry humour, and delighted in telling stories with a play on words that often left the listener wondering whether the story was fact or fiction. He was an avid reader and took special delight in finding bargains in the Salvation Army thrift store. John is survived by his wife, Anna, of 55 years, and three children, son, Kim, and daughters Naomi and Gina. He was also extremely proud of his six grandchildren, Ian, Alison, Graham, Tamias, Elliot and Hillary.

CRD to study street lighting for Alexis Creek The Cariboo Regional District board of directors authorized $3,000 for a feasibility study to have street lighting provided in the community of Alexis Creek, during their Nov. 7 meeting. The CRD will undertake an initial review and develop a public discussion and assent process as first steps. CCRHD 2014 TAX RATE During the Nov. 6 Cariboo Chilcotin Regional Hospital District meeting, the board endorsed a proposed resolution to raise the current tax rate for 2014 from $62/$100,000 to $70/$100,000 of residential assessment. This decision was based partly on town hall meeting feedback and that two significant capital projects are in the planning stages including the redevelopment of the Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake and the G.R. Baker Hospital in Quesnel. This increase will help minimize borrowing costs by building capital reserves. In 2000, the CCRHD adopted a 10-year capital plan to avoid borrowing for projects. During this timeframe, the Regional Hospital District was able to save approximately $1.5 million per year in financing costs. Each of these projects is roughly estimated at $150,000,000. Based on the traditional 60/40 per cent split between the Province and the Regional Hospital District, the CCRHD share of each project would be $60,000,000 for a total estimated expenditure of $120,000,000 for the two projects. If the Regional Hospital District was to borrow this amount rather than using capital reserves, the financing costs alone would be in excess of $5 million. DRAFT WATER ACT REVIEWED The Cariboo Regional District will be
submitting comments and feedback on the draft legislative pro-
posal for a new Water Sustainability Act (WSA) which was re-
cently circulated to all local governments in the province. In April
of 2010 the Board considered the Water Act Modernization discus-
sion paper, Living Water Smart (LWS), and provided comments
and suggestions to the Ministry of Environment.
