Powerline work charges forth THE GOAL of making hydro power more available farther north of here continues with work just beginning on an extension to BC Hydro's Northwest Transmission Line. The extension runs north of the transmission line's current end at a new substation at Bob Quinn along
Hwy37 North to the Red Chris copper and gold mine now being built by Imperial Metals. It will have the same capacity as the Northwest Transmission Line – 287 kilovolts – and will run approximately 95 kilometres north of Bob Quinn to Tatogga Lake. From there, a shorter branch line runs
about 20km east to the Red Chris site. Based on construction schedules, the extension work and the mine will be finished by late May of next year to fit with the planned completion of the Northwest Transmission Line, says Imperial Metals official Steve Robertson. The timeline fulfills Imperial's
longstanding objective of being the first customer to accept power from the $746 million Northwest Transmission Line, which itself is 344 kilometres long. “We are on schedule for commissioning by the beginning of June,” said Robertson of the start of Red Chris operations.
Imperial has chosen a Western Canada-based company called Rokstad Power to construct its line from Bob Quinn to Tatogga Lake. Valard, the company chosen by BC Hydro to build the Northwest Transmission Line, was also in the running for the work.

Public school enrolment numbers down By ANNA KILLEN

■■ Little helper KIPLIN STAINTON with her parents’ donation jar to raise money for Typhoon Haiyan relief in the Philippines at the Kawrner Store on Kalum St. Nov. 21. They will send away what they’ve collected from now to next month to get in on the federal government’s pledge to double the money, and will keep the jar, which has been out since Nov. 15, out until next year.
ENROLMENT NUMBERS for the Coast Mountains School District (CMSD) are down from last year, with district officials saying that it’s difficult to predict how an improving economy is affecting the public school population. Full-time enrolment for kindergarten through Grade 12, excluding home school students, in the CMSD taken at the end of September stood at 4,714. That's down from 4,851 in September 2012. CMSD superintendent Nancy Wells says this overall drop in students wasn't necessarily what the district was anticipating. “We like our projections to be accurate,” Wells said. “In our area, there's a lot of unknowns happening right now because of the economic development. Some people think that's going to drive more students, and, actually, it doesn't necessarily. It's been very hard to project this year because of things happening in our communities.” One example Wells gives of this instability is the rent increases that have been happening in the Terrace area. “Particularly in the downtown, Horseshoe core, we've lost families to other communities who can no longer afford to rent in Terrace. “That's impacted our overall numbers – and we didn't expect that,” she said.
“We're really sorry to lose those families because for a lot of our schools, those kids were an important part of our schools, they're doing really well, they know their teachers, and then they have to move.” For the two downtown elementary schools, overall enrolment has dropped, with 209 students at Cassie Hall last year, and 197 students this year. Suwilaawks Community school has 221 students this year compared with 252 last year. Terrace's French immersion school, Ecole Mountainview, has a higher number of overall students – 171 compared with 151, in part because of extra kindergarten spaces added this year. Uplands' enrolment has also increased, with 309 students enrolled last year and 315 this year. Thornhill Elementary saw 159 students last year, comparable to the 154 enrolled this year. Thornhill Primary saw 225 students last year, which this year increased to 244. And at Skeena Middle School this year, the school's second year with Grade 7 through Grade 9, there are 585 students, down from last year's 628. Parkside Secondary had 133 spaces filled last year, with 120 this year. Caledonia Secondary has 661 students for 2013/2014, down from 720 last year.

A NEW bear has appeared on a rock bluff overlooking the old bridge.
New bear on display
By ANNA KILLEN DESPITE blustery winter weather, a new white bear appears to have been painted back in its original spot on the rock bluff looking over the old Skeena bridge in Terrace B.C. This new Kermode, placed two weekends ago, faces the opposite direction of the old one and is smaller and more defined.
It’s not yet confirmed who the artist is, what materials were used, or whether the work is finished. Several weeks ago residents cried foul when it was discovered the original Terrace icon had been painted over with what appeared to be black or rock-coloured paint.

fence Systems (KIDS) claimed responsibility for the act. Calling it an “unsightly piece of vandalism,” the KIDS “have done this to draw attention to the impending disappearance of Moksgm’ol (spirit bear),” reads an undated and unsigned handwritten letter dropped off at The Terrace Standard late one night. “Too many industrial
projects threaten fish and game habitat in our region,” the statement continues. The first bear, painted approximately 20 years ago, had become a viewing attraction for locals and tourists. On social media some Terrace residents called for the bear to be painted back as it was, with others saying a new painting should be put in its place.

Where their children venture, parents need to follow
P
ARENTS NEED to be far more aware of what their children are doing online, a social media expert told an audience of parents and others here two weeks ago. That’s because young people don’t understand the consequences of displaying their lives and personal information, says Merlyn Horton from the Safe Online Outreach Society based in Mission, B.C. “They don’t have a filter and they don’t think,” Horton told approximately 200 people at the REM Lee Theatre Nov. 12. “Young people don’t have the ability to assess risks. Yes, there’s fun, but there’s also risk [in the cyber world].” The challenge for parents in trying to understand what their children are doing, Horton told the audience, is the rapid development of online communications methods. Facebook, she said, may be extremely well used worldwide but younger people are tending to use other social media applications. And, Horton continued, parents may be the first generation to know less than their children when it comes to technology. “Ninety-eight per cent of Canadian youth use technology every day,” she said. “The difference is that adults aren’t up on the technology.” Horton described the online world as a large mall, one in which parents should walk their children through rather than letting them wander around once inside the front door. Startling, said Horton, is research showing that 40 per cent of young people think that whatever they post online can be kept private. “No. It is public and permanent,” said Horton, emphasizing that post secondary institutions and employers will routinely search for information on people applying for programs and jobs. One popular program is Snapchat, billed as a service allowing people to send photos which then, allegedly, disappear. “Not so. Nothing is ever instantly gone and nothing is temporary,” said Horton. “Technology has changed the consequences of their behaviour,” she said of photos and information posted now which can be retrieved years from now. Parents may have been able to leave their juvenile history

STUDIES SHOW teenagers are using Facebook less frequently, instead moving on to other social media applications which their parents may know less about.
behind, but technology now means that behaviour will follow children forever, Horton added. Anyone adept at computer usage can uncover incredible amounts of information about people, including images, and use them to their own advantage, she said. Also disturbing, Horton continued, is the willingness of young people to divulge user names and passwords. Up to one quarter of 18-year-old girls will share user names and passwords, she said. “You need to treat your username and password like a toothbrush – don’t share,” Horton emphasized. Horton also advised parents to hold out as long as possible before letting their children enter the online world. And she encouraged parents to establish guidelines regarding the use of mobile devices. That could mean restrictions as to when they can be used each day to whether they can be taken into bedrooms at night. “A webcam is like leaving a chainsaw under your the bed.
It’s a powerful tool,” said Horton. Horton also spoke about cyberbullying and sexting, which is the sending of sexual images, as two of the most disturbing aspects of youth and social media. Social media makes bullying, defined as unwelcome or aggressive behaviour designed to hurt others, easier to accomplish. “Cyberbullying is rooted in ignorance and discrimination,” said Horton. Young people may say comments or images are meant to entertain and not to harm, she added. “Online dynamism makes bully/victims roles fluid and changing. The little geek kids have lots of power online,” said Horton. Above all, Horton said parents need to remain calm and rational if their children come to them with a problem. What children fear most, she said, is that their parents will take away their mobile devices, something that will then cut off contact with their friends. Horton spoke about sexting in the context of the natural
curiousity children have about sexuality. “Exhibitionism is a developmental stage. The difference is today it’s digitized,” she said. Half of children regard sending images as normal, Horton said. “And this is the standard we need to challenge.” Conversations with children not only have to emphasize what they do but also what their friends might do with information and images sent to them. “One-third [of children] who receive an image, pass it along to someone else,” said Horton. The foundation statement to provide young people is “don’t take or allow sexual images of yourself to be taken,” said Horton. Horton and another expert on social media and young people were first scheduled to speak to school district employees as part of an on-going training program. But an ongoing police investigation in Terrace concerning sexting among young people prompted the REM Lee session for parents.

Wednesday, November 27, 2013 Terrace Standard
EDITORIAL
Pipelines HATS off to the provincial legislature’s finance committee for putting on paper an issue that’s been on the minds of many northwesterners. And that’s asking the provincial government to consider establishing a common liquefied natural gas (LNG) energy corridor. Think of this corridor as being a highway with pipelines branching off to separate LNG plants as needed and you get the idea. As Skeena NDP MLA Robin Austin points out, it would save companies time and money from having to have separate routes surveyed and approved and ease overall environmental impacts. But it would also, as Mr. Austin further points out, stand in the way of the competitive nature of business in pursuing the ultimate gold medal – being the first project to the coast consisting of a pipeline, plant and customers. In practical terms, there would have to be consideration for perhaps two corridors, one to serve Kitimat area plants and the other for Prince Rupert projects. And there’d be that other project – Northern Gateway – to consider. While LNG companies might be persuaded a common corridor has merits, even the slightest suggestion a common corridor could also apply to that project would have their public relations advisors shrinking back in horror. Still, it’s an idea worth exploring and a response from the province is awaited. ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

Almost daily the mayor runs face first into a news camera, is caught in a new lie revealed by the cops’ undercover surveillance of his former part-time driver, or is forced to utter another meaningless apology. Like movies on Channel 54, each newscast should be preceded by the warning, “Program may contain coarse language. Viewer discretion is advised.” But even that disclaimer would not have adequately warned viewers about Rob Ford’s vulgar remarks involving a hooker and his wife, nor would it have prepared viewers they were about to witness the mayor peeing behind a shrub along a public street like a teenage drunk after a prom.

Although now cancelled, some suggestions were The Big Bong Theory, The Biggest User, and Parks and Recreational Drug Use. Now that Ford has been stripped of many of his mayoral powers and duties, he could write verses for Hallmark apology cards. Few people have had Mayor Ford’s practice uttering the words “I apologize.” He might even write the lyrics for a new Justin Bieber hit to supercede Baby, Baby, Baby. Currently TV lineups include Undercover Boss; Bar Saviour; a Type A genius who coaches failing hotels back to life; and the newest, Bakery Boss. I’m expecting a public relations guru to launch an advice show geared to the Ford brothers. Until then, he could help himself by avoiding the public eye (not likely, given his hefty ego) parking only where it’s legal to do so, treating his wife and co-workers respectfully, and moving under the radar.

PREMIER CHRISTY Clark is in Asia on a trade mission promoting BC’s liquefied natural gas potential.
LNG a chancy proposition Dear Sir: After watching television last night I had this dream. B.C.’s premier was on the Dragons’ Den TV show asking for billions for natural gas projects. She made a good pitch, the same that got her elected, pointing out how natural liquid gas would assure the
I
province’s economic wellbeing. Restore all that has been destroyed by her government, eliminate poverty of thousands of children, provide permanent well-paying jobs for all people, white or brown, etc. The dragons then asked their usual questions; have you got sole distribution rights for this! Our competitors are
USA, Australia (who is currently cutting back production because of a glut worldwide). Russia with direct pipelines to China and China itself developing a shale gas industry that will provide 150 billion cubic metric of natural gas, about two-thirds of the projected consumption by 2020. A dragon asks “have you
done cost and return analyses? “Oh yes, it is predicted that the only way to get into this market is to lower prices.” How about the environment. Is the fracking process not depleting the freshwater and poisoning the rest of the ground water?
Dear Sir: In recent weeks, there have been letters to the editor regarding TransCanada’s proposed Prince Rupert Gas Transmission project. We are writing this letter to respond to some of the comments that have been made and to correct some inaccuracies that have been published. TransCanada has, as your readers are aware, been evaluating various routes for our proposed project. We are very careful to make sure that we conduct these evaluations legally and safely. We recognize that there are some concerns about the prospect of a new natural gas pipeline in your area. We always strive to conduct our work in a courteous and professional manner and we take special care to ensure that all of the work for the project is carried out legally and with the necessary permits that are required before commencing that work. Discussions with all those who may be affected by the proposed pipeline is an important part of the pipeline project for us. While engaging stakeholders is part of the provincial review process, we also believe it’s the right thing to do. So we regularly visit local communities to talk with local officials, landowners, Aboriginal groups and others who have an interest in our project. We have had one round of open houses in the spring along the proposed route and there will be another round of open houses in early December.

Research, technology key to woods industry
n late October, northwest B.C. was hit with the news that sawmills in Houston and Moricetown would be closing. Kyahwood Forest Products – Moricetown’s sole employer – closed in October while the West Fraser sawmill in Houston will shut its doors in May 2014. Let’s look at what happened. There are two large mills in Houston – one operated by West Fraser, the other by Canfor – and each have access to a portion of the surrounding forest resources (Timber Supply Areas or TSAs). However, the wood in their TSAs is increasingly rotting because of Mountain Pine Beetles. Realizing that eventually the TSAs wouldn’t support two mills, it appears Canfor and West Fraser struck a deal. West Fraser and Canfor essentially traded forest resources in Houston and Quesnel, where they both operate, and each closed one mill. So in Houston, the Canfor mill gains forestry resources and will continue to operate, while the West Fraser mill closes. And in Quesnel, the West Fraser mill
gains resources and will continue to operate, while the Canfor mill closes. A simple switcheroo that helps the remaining mills cope with the coming reduction in timber supply. This makes good business sense, but it will still be hard on the communities. The Kyahwood closure is a little different. The mill is owned and operated by the Moricetown Band and produces finger joint studs for the North American housing market. Reportedly, the mill closed due to debt resulting from high transportation costs, both for source wood from Houston and to get products to market. But unlike Houston, which has another mill in town that will continue to employ residents, Kyahwood is the only employer in Moricetown. So closing the mill, which employed 71 community members, dramatically affects this First Nation community. Kyahwood is apparently exploring whether it could make additional products, presumably in the hopes of serving Northwest BC buyers, and lowering product transportation costs.
GUEST COMMENT
TANIA MILLEN Two towns in northwest B.C., two closures. What’s next? A few thoughts come to mind. Companies continue to take advantage of the natural resources that Canada is blessed with. We’re good at exporting raw materials. It’s easy. We’re also good at manufacturing fairly simple products. However, the real value is in creating specialty products which utilize the skills of a variety of people and can be made in
many communities. Yes, the ‘value-added drum’ has been beaten to death. So the trick in this new economy is to add innovation and technology – that’s where there’s high value. Simply one valueadded solution won’t work – we need industry players to collaborate and form a cohesive network of complementary products. Maintaining the status quo isn’t keeping people working. So let’s focus on innovative ideas in the forest sector. Related to that is the need – now more than ever – for research that builds knowledge about our forest assets. New information will allow future entrepreneurs to thrive, thereby increasing the sustainability and resilience of communities. To that end, Skeena-Nass Centre for Innovation in Resource Economics (SNCIRE) is working with FPInnovations – a large private Canadian nonprofit forestry research centre – to research challenges specific to northwest B.C. forest resources. But perhaps most importantly, we need to support businesses which already operate in north-
west B.C. To that end, Northern Development Initiative Trust (NDIT) has created an online Supply Chain Connector database (www.supplychainconnector.ca). This easily searchable online database allows major industry, communities and government to quickly locate northern B.C.-based businesses to help build major projects, thereby ensuring regional residents benefit from proposed development projects. SNCIRE is working with NDIT and existing forest product suppliers in northwest B.C. to ensure they are properly profiled on the Supply Chain Connector. None of these activities will magically replace the jobs lost in Houston or Moricetown. However, they will assist in developing the northwest B.C. forest industry over the long-term. And for residents committed to northwest B.C., the long-term matters. Tania Millen is an environmental consultant, writer and community agitator who works for Skeena-Nass Centre for Innovation in Resource Economics (SNCIRE) in Terrace, B.C.

Nisga’a budget battle headed to the courts THE NISGA’A Lisims Government and Nisga’a living in Terrace are headed to court over the control of money meant for services to Nisga’a citizens in this area. The Terrace Nisga’a Society, created to be an urban component of the Lisims government which is headquartered in the Nisga’a homeland of the Nass Valley, split off from the Nisga’a Lisims Government this year following several years of differences over financing and operations. But what the society did not do, says the Nisga’a government, is return monies to it after the split occurred in the summer. It’s this money the Nisga’a government is now asking for via a BC Supreme Court injunction application. “We are obligated to seek an injunction from the court to protect these funds,” stated Nisga’a president Mitchell Stevens.

THE TERRACE Nisga’a Society has moved to new offices following a dispute with the Nisga’a government, but parking spot signs remain in place at the old location. Although local Nisga’a, who have now set up their own office in Terrace, haven’t been filing financial information with the Lisims government since the end of March, Stevens said information it filed for the 12 months before that, indicated it spent just over $113,000 on legal fees. “The Nisga’a Nation is trying to get these funds back, so we can actually use the funds to continue providing
programs and services through the Nisga’a Lisims Government-Terrace office. This injunction is the first step,” said Stevens of money in the Terrace Nisga’a Society accounts. Lisims officials didn’t immediately indicate how much money is sent annually to the Terrace Nisga’a Society operating as the Lisims urban component but financial statements for the year ending March 31, 2012 state approxi-
mately $888,000 was provided by the Lisims government. Those same statements to the end of March 2012 also show the Terrace Nisga’a Society had $368,933 in its accounts. “The Nisga’a Nation is only aware of the amounts held as of March 31, 2013, and has been left to speculate on what is left based on previous year’s spending,” a statement from the Lisims government said. The Terrace Nisga’a Society says the allegations are unproven. It’s also “shocked and disappointed” over the allegations of misuse of monies and failure to provide programs, it said in a release. It’s also promised to “protect the rights of Nisga’a citizens in the Terrace Urban Local Area in court and will continue to stand up to [the Lisims government] until it is no longer able.”

THIS COMMUNITY ALERT IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:
Environmental Assessment of the Proposed Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Project Open House and Invitation to Comment Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Ltd. (Proponent), a wholly owned subsidiary of TransCanada PipeLines Limited, is proposing the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Project (proposed Project), an approximately 900 km natural gas pipeline from near the District of Hudson’s Hope to the proposed Pacific NorthWest LNG liquefied natural gas export facility on Lelu Island, within the District of Port Edward. The proposed Project would involve the construction and operation of a 48-inch (1,219 mm) diameter pipeline, metering facilities at the receipt and delivery points, and three compressor stations, with provision for up to an additional five compressor stations to allow for future expansion. The proposed Project will have an initial capacity of approximately 2.0 billion cubic feet (bcf)/day with potential for expansion to approximately 3.6 bcf/day.
To provide information about the Application Information Requirements, EAO invites the public to attend an open house at the following locations: St. Peter’s Church Hall 599 Skeena Drive Mackenzie Wednesday November 27, 2013 4:00pm - 8:00pm
Community Hall 10310 - 100th Street Hudson’s Hope Thursday November 28, 2013 4:00pm - 8:00pm

Community Centre 770 Pacific Avenue Port Edward Thursday December 5, 2013 4:00pm - 8:00pm
The proposed Project is subject to review under BC’s Environmental Assessment Act.
There are 30 days for the submission of comments by the public in relation to the draft Application Information Requirements.
The Proponent must obtain an environmental assessment certificate before any construction work can be undertaken on the proposed Project. However, before submission of an application (Application) for a certificate by the Proponent, the BC Environmental Assessment Office (EAO) must first issue the Application Information Requirements. The Application Information Requirements will specify the studies to be conducted and the detailed information to be provided by the Proponent in its Application. EAO has now received draft Application Information Requirements from the Proponent and invites comments on this draft.
The public comment period will begin on November 19, 2013 and end on December 18, 2013. All comments received during this time in relation to the Application Information Requirements will be considered. The intention of seeking public comment is to ensure that sufficient information is provided to assess all potential effects – environmental, economic, social, heritage and health – that might result from the proposed Project in the Application. At this stage of the process, the primary intent is to receive feedback about the studies or information required for a comprehensive environmental assessment.
After taking public comments into account, EAO will issue the Application Information Requirements. EAO accepts public comments by: Online Form: http://www.eao.gov.bc.ca Mail: Nathan Braun Project Assessment Manager Environmental Assessment Office PO Box 9426 Stn Prov Govt Victoria BC V8W 9V1 Fax: 250.387.0230 An electronic copy of the Application Information Requirements and information regarding the environmental assessment process are available at www.eao.gov.bc.ca. Copies of the Application Information Requirements are also available for viewing at public libraries in Fort St. John, Taylor, Hudson’s Hope, Chetwynd, Mackenzie, Prince George, Fort St. James, Granisle, Smithers, Hazelton, Terrace, Stewart and Prince Rupert. If you are unable to participate at this time, there will be an additional comment period during the Application review stage when you will also be able to provide comments to the EAO on the proposed Project.
NOTE: All submissions received by the EAO during the comment period in relation to the proposed Project are considered public and will be posted to the EAO website.

Gas and the Dragons just will not mix well “True, but some of the scores of my staffers will find a way to market flammable water, once all the gas is gone.” And the premier’s last desperate pitch is this: “I need your support, I am a single parent, and this is the only thing I can think of, you can have 99 per cent of the profits if any.” At this time Kevin (Mr. Wonderful) comments, “I do not care about the water, I drink wine, I care only about the money, this is the worst presentation ever, my beloved money will never be invested in this insane idea, seven LNG plants! Looks more like a herd of white elephants. The market will crash you like a cockroach, I am out.” Now that I am awake I looked up the numbers around LNG here is what I learned: Asia demands are expected to grow to 216 cubic billion feet by
2020. The current import is 30 cubic billion feet. Under construction is 97 cubic billion feet. China’s industry will provide 150 cubic billion feet. The total capacity existing or under construction is 367 cubic billion feet. World surplus before B.C. plants are started is 151 cubic billion feet. Should one or more of these plants actually get built do not be surprised to find the workers to be Chinese, Irishmen and Albertans. If you after looking at these facts thinks that multiple LNG plants are a good investment, and believe in this pipe dream, pun intended. I am looking for investors to purchase a couple of bridges. Note to self-stop watching T.V. John Jensen, Terrace, B.C.

A pipeline has benefits This is in support of our upcoming application to the BC Environmental Assessment Office. We welcome communities’ active participation in these open houses and look forward to having the opportunity to further discuss the project and respond to any issues that are raised. We make it a priority to ensure everyone is informed about our proposed project and we try to respond to all questions or concerns. After hearing from stakeholders, we have made changes to our proposed route. For example, we listened to landowners and moved the proposed pipeline from the western side of the Kispiox Valley onto crown land on the east side, thereby avoiding private land. As well, the east side has already been disturbed through logging. Altogether, stakeholder feedback
has resulted in a proposed route that is very different than the one we were proposing just three months ago. We have added over 100 kilometres to our overall proposed route in direct response to their concerns and as part of TransCanada’s ethic of responsible natural gas pipeline development. We support our messages with actions and contribute to the wellbeing of the communities directly through our Community Investment program. We consider, for example, all requests for financial involvement in local health care facilities and community services. This project will be an important contributor to the future prosperity of the province and the country. TransCanada is taking great care to ensure that its proposed project will cause minimal shortterm effects on people

A LOCAL real estate agent isn’t convinced a proposal from a local social services agency to build housing on city-owned land is the best use for the property. Remax’s John Evans says the property on the corner of Kenney and Park in the Horseshoe could contain as many as 100 market rental units, significantly more than the 20 modular-style houses wanted by the Ksan House Society. The resulting taxes from such a development would bring a larger benefit to the city than the Ksan project, which would feature a combination of units bringing in market rents and lower, incomebased rents based on social services subsidy limits, said Evans. “The increase in supply of apartments would improve our vacancy rate thus providing more affordable housing and increasing the city’s tax base at the same time,” said Evans. Evans bases his argument on the idea there are people now living in apartments and other rental accommodation who cannot find anywhere else to live but who can – and will – pay more rent than they are now paying if presented with an alternative. “That would then free up the housing these people are living in now for others and that would address your affordability index,” said Evans. And while the Ksan proposal hinges on leasing the land from the city, Evans would have the city sell it outright so that a developer absorbs all of the resulting risks. And an outright sale of city land to a developer for market-priced housing wouldn’t result

“Having a policy [for city land] which requires a developer to offer a component of low cost housing is something people just don’t like,” Evans added. The Ksan proposal of mixed market and lower rents, with the latter tied to a maximum allowed by social assistance, also says it could be accomplished without a subsidy. But it would require a lot of volunteer labour and other in-kind contributions to lower construction and development costs, indicates a proposal by the society submitted to city council two weeks ago. When it comes to the provision of affordable housing, the city says it doesn’t have a specific policy regarding the requirement of a set number of such units on land it would sell to a

the city to put towards another housing project. There are many options that could be proposed and for council to consider when making a decision to sell or lease one of these parcels,” he said. The society wants the city to lease either the Kenney and Park location or property on Haugland on the Southside very close to 50 units of subsidized housing it already manages. The latter however, isn’t favoured by at least one city councillor. Stacey Tyers says there would be a risk of ghettoization from having a large amount of subsidized housing in the same area. The city has three properties on which it would negotiate some form of affordable housing if they were

THE AREA’S first substantial snowfall of the season last week resulted in one accident and a partial closure of Hwy16 west of Terrace. Terrace RCMP reported that the road was closed to all traffic after a semi truck spilled lumber onto the road just after noon Nov. 19 about 8 km west of Kasiks. The driver suffered minor injuries, said police. At about 2 p.m., the road was opened to single lane alternating traffic, said police. On Nov. 20, an avalanche reduced the road to single lane alternating traffic about 56 km west of Terrace at 4:16 p.m. It was cleared and reopened to all traffic at 3:34 p.m. Nov. 21, reported DriveBC.

Local pot petitioners expect to hit goal By ANNA KILLEN WITH A week to go in the campaign to reform how marijuana is policed in B.C., organizers are having trouble rallying support in some parts of the province, and are already talking about a potential relaunch later in the new year. But Sensible BC’s regional coordinator for Skeena, Zachary Canuel, said he believes petitioners here will cross the 10 per cent signature threshold – although they probably won’t make the 15 per cent target they’d set in order to give themselves a cushion in the case of scratched votes. “We’re really close to 1500 signatures right now here in the Skeena area, so we’re about three quarters of the way to our minimum goal, which isn’t quite as good as we had hoped,” Canuel said. “It’s very doable that we do get our 10 per cent, I don’t think we’re going to be able to make the 15 per cent buffer that we were hoping for.” Sensible BC launched its campaign with the end goal of decriminalizing marijuana
on Sept. 9. Under Elections BC’s recall and Initiative Act, petitioners have 90 days to collect the signatures of 10 per cent of registered voters in every provincial district. That means the Dec. 9 deadline is soon approaching. If that goal is met, a provincial vote could be held in September 2014 asking voters to consider the Sensible Policing Act, which would “stop police from searching or arresting otherwise lawabiding citizens for possession of marijuana,” reads the description on Sensible BC’s website. The draft bill could also be introduced into the legislature for debate. But the campaign has come across more resistance than they’d initially anticipated. “We haven’t had any trouble from the RCMP here in the Skeena area, but I know down south they’ve really had a lot of harassment,” Canuel said, noting Skeena region organizers still faced some pushback. “We couldn’t set up in front of the mall unfortunately. People didn’t want us in places where I know the HST campaign had fantastic success,” he said.
Canuel chalks this up to people not understanding the campaign or thinking decriminalizing marijuana is more controversial with the general public than it actually is. “They think they’re taking a stance on an issue that is very divisive,” he said. He said this is “unfortunate because it is about creating a safer neighbourhood, taking the money out of organized crime, and getting guns and drugs out of neighbourhoods and into a controlled environment, which not enough people understand.” But that doesn’t mean he hasn’t seen support here. “I’ve talked to quite a few business owners who are very supportive of what we are doing. When I’m out canvassing, it’s always been very positive, I don’t run into very many people who are negative.” Those interested in signing can still do so at Canuel’s store Deviant Fibres. And the group is hoping to set up tables in front of WalMart and/or Canadian Tire – if those businesses permit it – as the deadline approaches.

Delay in LNG taxation not a surprise to MLA SKEENA NDP MLA Robin Austin says he’s not surprised the provincial government has delayed the release of its much anticipated liquefied natural gas (LNG) tax regime. “Really, the province is only now realizing it has to stop cheerleading. They have some very very complicated work to do to achieve their goals,” said Austin, who is his party’s critic on LNG development. His comments follow the Nov. 19 announcement by LNG minister Rich Coleman that the province is putting off the release of its tax proposal until February. An announcement had been expected this month. It’s the second time Coleman has announced a delay in how the provincial government says it will earn revenue from the LNG industry. LNG companies and the province have been in negotiations for some time now over how much the latter would
Robin Austin pay to extract and process natural gas. The lack, so far, of a tax regime is said to be holding up the signing of LNG sales contracts because companies don’t know how much tax they’ll be paying. Austin suspects the provincial government has bumped into two much-publicized but contradictory goals – one to provide billions of dollars to taxpayers and the other to provide an attractive climate for LNG investors. “Here they are saying they are going to pay down the debt and also pay for health care
and education at the same time as saying they are going to have the most competitive jurisdiction in the world for LNG,” he said. “The LNG companies will want to pay the lowest amount for the resource while it’s the job of the government to maximize the resource for the people who own it and that’s the people. “I think they’re going to end up with less and are going to start to spin that,” Austin added of the provincial government. LNG companies in Australia, for instance, negotiated a system whereby they are able to deduct the difference between a project’s final costs from its first estimates from royalties owed. Austin said it’s a pretty generous plan with the taxpayer absorbing the risk of projects instead of company shareholders. The MLA is also wondering how the province is going to meet its own legis-
lated greenhouse gas emission goals while encouraging the construction of LNG plants which will burn natural gas for power. “Obviously there’s going to be a problem here,” said Austin. He believes, based on hints coming from the province, the provincial government will try to sell the idea it is reducing greenhouse gases through the sale of natural gas to Asian markets if the gas replaces more polluting methods of power production in those countries. “But the goals that were set, and we supported them, were domestic,” Austin said. Coleman now says the LNG tax plan will be released next February, the same time as the province begins formal budget deliberations. And it will take the form of a tax on LNG output, the minister added. The prospect of billions in LNG tax revenues was a key selling feature of the Christy

LNG emissions study forecasts health risk NATURAL GAS may be the cleanest burning fuel there is but the amount that could be burned to produce liquefied natural gas (LNG) by as many as three plants would drastically increase industrial emissions in the Kitimat-Terrace area, says a local environmental group. SkeenaWild this week released a study indicating the amount of nitrogen oxide, for example, could rise by 500 per cent over existing levels, posing a health risk to residents. The study comes in advance of the Kitimat Airshed Impact Assessment commissioned by the provincial government that is due out next March. “We simply don’t know what a safe level is,� said SkeenaWild executive director Greg Knox of emissions. “And that’s what the provincial study is supposed to answer for us.� The study is based on the assumption that three plants being proposed for Kitimat would burn their own natural gas to power cooling systems that would liquefy the gas product, after which it would be pumped into tankers for shipment overseas. “What we’re suggesting is the province follow through and ensure these facilities are producing the cleanest LNG,� said Knox. “We’re not opposing LNG but we need to protect peoples’ health and the environment.� SkeenaWild prefers the proposed plants use a combination of power sources of power such as wind, hydro-electric and geothermal. Knox suggested airshed impacts might be reduced by constructing a natural gas-fired power
plant somewhere else with transmission lines then running to LNG plants. But, said Knox, developing those sources might have environmental impacts of their own to consider. And in the case of geothermal and wind power, no such generating facilities exist in the northwest. There is, however, a plan by Calgary-based energy company Veresen to build a natural gas-fired power plant on the Skeena Industrial Development Park just south of the airport. The same company is also building a run-ofriver hydro-electric project southwest of Terrace. Knox said the airshed impact of three planned LNG plants must also be considered in the context of current and future emissions from other industries. Rio Tinto Alcan’s new smelter will reduce current emissions in some categories but it will produce more sulphur dioxide than the current smelter now produces. “Enbridge must also be considered, there will be hundreds of tankers with their emissions and there’s the oil refinery proposal,� said Knox. Data for the SkeenaWild study was compiled by Jeremy Moorhouse, an engineer with extensive experience in the oil and gas industry. SkeenaWild Conservation Trust began as an organization aimed at protecting and improving fish habitat within the Skeena River watershed. But the prospect of large-scale industrialization has now caused it to broaden its scope, said Knox.

Winter stalls projects TWO MAJOR City of Terrace public works projects begun this year will most likely have to be put on hold until next spring. The push is on to complete a major overhaul of a block of McConnell Ave. in the Horseshoe and the extension of the Grand Trunk Pathway, popularly called the millennium trail, but Rob Schibli said that while they are nearing completion, some of the jobs have already been rescheduled until spring. While there has been “no final call on projects”, as of last week there were several outstanding aspects of both projects that needed completing. The resurfacing and redo of water systems and driveways on McConnell Ave. still requires “some driveway paving, weather and plant availability dependent,” said Schibli, adding that the new topsoil and seed for the boulevard section of the avenue have already been rescheduled to spring.

PAVING OF an extension to the millennium trail will now likely have to wait until next spring. Other work there continues. The grading and paving of the Grand Trunk Pathway was planned for completion this year but is now “extremely
unlikely”. The topsoil and grass seeding will be done in the spring as planned and the fencing along
the south perimeter is ongoing this year. Benches and shrubs will also be put in next year.

Terrace twins take on new team By GAVEN CRITES IN THE hallway near the dressing rooms at the South Cariboo Rec. Centre following a recent 100 Mile House Wranglers home game, coach/general manager Doug Rogers was asked about two of his forwards – William and Robert Orrey, 19-year-old twin brothers from Terrace. “I would say they’re more similar than they are different,” Rogers responded. “They both take a lot of pride in what they do. “Will is a little fierier than Robert is. They are different people and they have different attributes, but they are quality kids and they work hard every night and that’s what we can count on.” The Wranglers are an expansion team in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) this season and Rogers has often juggled the lineup looking for the right combination of players to take the team forward. Two-thirds of the Orrey line, with William at centre and Robert on the wing, however, hasn't been touched yet. In some sense, they're one constant on a new team in a young season sure to come with a ton of growth and change. When asked if it's better for the club if they play on the same line, both answer in the affirmative. “I think, mentally, it’s a big help having my brother there with me,” Robert says. “I think [Rogers] saw our chemistry in tryouts and saw what we were capable of. We push each other forward.” Adds William: “It’s a little frustrating we haven’t found the back of the net. But, we’re coming through. We’re a new team, trying to figure stuff out, that’s the way it is.” Robert agrees. “As a new team, everyone is trying to find their spot and focus on that.” (Indeed, they have already started coming through. Robert scored twice, including the overtime winner, against the Revelstoke Grizzlies on Oct. 13.) The twin brother dynamic is an interest-

They are playing their first season in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League. ing one to consider in the realm of sports. Since the day they started playing hockey in atom – “It was one of the greatest days of my life,” says Robert – the boys have used one
another as markers of how well they're progressing. Their style of play is similar in that they're a bit undersized, but quick, skilled and tenacious. Having spent so much time
on the ice together, the chemistry between them is obviously there. But when things go wrong, they agree that criticism, no matter how well-intentioned, is more irksome coming from your brother's mouth than a regular teammate's. “It’s family,” says Robert. “You have that pride thing.” William, the elder by 45 minutes and admittedly quicker to show his emotions, says it does get heated between them at times, but they try to keep things positive. “I rely on him as much as he relies on me. No matter what’s going on, we try to do our best. You have to battle through it.” Growing up in Terrace – some 900 kilometres northwest of 100 Mile House – the boys say they played the sort of customary tricks you'd expect identical-looking people to play. And they say it is funny and a bit of a mood-lightener when coaches, often shouting for everyone to hear, mistake one for the other on the ice. They are technically fraternal twins – but the differences are slight. And the coincidence isn't always comical. With it comes the regular annoyance: Are you William? Are you Robert? “I respond to both now,” says William. “If someone says ‘Robert,' I look up.” Like coach Rogers says, as much as the two are similar, they are different people with different characteristics. Robert, for instance, seems a bit quicker to converse. But when the question comes up about who is better with girls, it's William who chimes in first: “Robbie,” he answers. “[That's a] smooth talker over there.” Robbie, with bashful laughter, concedes this is true. Adapting to Junior B hockey and staking a place for themselves in the KIJHL is something the Orrey boys say they're enjoying thoroughly. They look to the future and see college, Junior A or potentially professional hockey.

River Kings ‘make history’ in Smithers IT WAS a historic win for the Terrace River Kings two weekends ago, beating last year’s league champions the Smithers Steelheads 4-1 on Steelhead ice Nov. 16. The game was the second of a two week road stint that saw them fall 5-4 in overtime to the Houston Luckies Nov. 9, securing a point and chipping into the Luckies’ first place standing in the 2013/2014 Central Interior Hockey League season. The game against the Luckies opened with a goal by assistant captain Josh Murray halfway into the first period, assists to Rich Clair and Ben Reinbolt. Not 30 seconds later, the Kings made it 2-0 with one by Calen Findlay, assists to Rajan Sangha and Tristan Murray. Houston tied it up in the first three minutes of the second, with a Kings’ goal by Murray (shorthanded, assist by Sangha) and an answer by the Luckies on the powerplay leaving the score at 3-3 at the end of the period. Captain
Steve Cullis, assists Reinbolt and Murray, looked to finish the Luckies off with a goal at 18:14 of the third, but the Luckies shot one in with only eight seconds left to take the game to overtime, taking 45 seconds to get the extra point and the win. The game saw 34 penalty minutes total, with 14 going to the Kings and 20 to the Luckies. This near-win clearly left the Kings hungry heading into their game against Smithers Nov. 16. While the Steelheads were first on the board in the opening period, the Kings had the next four in a row. Shots on goal were even with 40 a piece, credit to Kings’ goalie Garrett Muir for the win. The game saw 48 penalty minutes total, 22 for the Kings, 26 for the Steelheads. The Kings will face off against both teams again this weekend on home ice – with Smithers visiting Saturday night and Houston here for a Sunday matinee.

Game, set, zones for Caledonia Senior Girls IT WAS a nail-biting finish at the Sr. Girls Volleyball Northwest Zone final between the Caledonia Kermodes and the Charles Hays Rainmakers in Terrace Nov. 16. But the hometown squad rallied to beat the Rainmakers in three straight sets in the best out of five match and are heading to Delta for provincials today, Nov. 27. The team beat Prince Rupert easily the weekend before the final, said coach Carmen Didier. “So I think the girls felt the match was going to be an easy one,” she said. “It definitely was not. Prince Rupert put up a good battle and put a lot of tips over our block.” That meant adjusting their defense to a six up system to protect the centre of the court in order to regain control of the court. The team is heading into provincials ranked 13. “Our goal is to beat our rankings,” Didier said, noting they’re still considered a young team with a starting lineup that has two Grade 12s, one who is the libero, and five Grade 11s. “The girls know their opponents who are mainly Grade 12s and what to expect and I know they will do their best to make their community proud,” she said. And this is just the beginning, with players progressing through the system beginning in Grade 8. “These girls have really set the standard of play for the volleyball players coming up in future years.

emembrance Day approaches. In a day, I will be off to Vancouver to visit my mother on her 89th birthday. In two days, Doug will be off to Mexico to play on the playa where he will stumble upon photographers shooting the latest edition of the Sports Illustrated Magazine Swimsuit Issue and later be stung in the foot by a sting ray – an eventful trip. As we pass the airport on the Beam Station side, it’s blanketed in a wet fog and our respective flights are very much up in the air. No plane is landing in this soup, I predict. It better clear soon, says Doug. Predictions of snow are in the air too. There’s a good chance I will be caught with my studded tires off, but today there’s no snow on the ground so we’re able to chase steelhead. The steelhead returns are low. Coho are abundant. This isn’t bad news. There are never many steelhead anywhere in any river in any year. This is how steelhead are. They are tough fish. They rely on their endurance to get to the good gravel where a few of them will spawn enough aggressive little fish to make it back to the sea, dodge fresh and salt water predators then return in small numbers and do it all again. The other salmon need to be numerous. For many years now coho spawners have been low. This year they seem to be everywhere

young children. With the Orrey boys there the grocery bill is a lot higher, but otherwise Chris says the arrangement is working out and having them around makes the new Wranglers team that much more exciting. “It’s almost like your kids are playing,” he says of the experience. “They have teammates coming over here and we’ve met most of the players now I think. It’s different to sit in the stands. I feel more involved.” The boys help out at home with the kids, too, Chris adds. “We have a 20-month-old boy and now he’s addicted to hockey. They take him downstairs and play hockey with him. That’s like the one word he’s really good at saying – 'hockey'. “It feels like our family got a little bit bigger.”

We reach the Railway Run at lunch time. I’m about to take out my thermos when I notice the dogs have trotted to the end of the beach and are staring intently down stream. I look in the direction they are and see three men bent over under an alder on the bank that overlooks the side channel flowing around the island a hundred metres downriver. Doug joins me. What are they doing? I ask, hoping it’s not what I think they’re doing. They’re skinning out something, says Doug who has dressed out more than a few moose and deer in his time. It’s got to be a bear. I feel sick to my stomach. You wanna go? Yeah, says Doug. The plane lands the next day. I fly out. Doug returns to the killing ground for confirmation, and finds the carcass of a big male grizzly lying in the side channel where it was pushed by its killers. He knows it’s a grizzly because it looks like a human corpse.

■ Centenary project YVONNE MOEN holds up the first of two calendars being sold to raise money for the Littletown/100 Year Celebration Committee and Friends of George Little House. They are organizing 100 year celebrations next year for George Little House, Kalum School, and the first train arrival. Photos were donated by photographer Walter Mantel.
THE NASS VALLEY village of Laxgalts’ap is hosting an evening of entertainment Dec. 5 in its large community facility to raise money for the survivors of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. Laxgalts’ap [Greenville] chief administrative officer Andrew Robinson said the idea grew out of a discussion several people had around a table one night. It was then brought up at a wedding celebration and came to fruition at a village council meeting Nov. 19. “You could call it a real grassroots start,” said Robinson. Our culture is to share and this is one way we can do that.” He said people in the Nass understand the potential for disaster and that should anything happen in the valley, they would depend upon outside assistance. In that fashion, Robinson continued, helping people in the Philippines is a way of paying it forward. Being invited are entertainers from around the Nass Valley, including the mass Nass band and the Nisga’a Elementary Secondary School band. The evening begins at 7 p.m and lasts until 10 p.m. “It’s going to be an evening of entertainment and food,” said Robinson.

Northwest powerline work charges forth Rokstad has started putting in foundations and assembling towers for the extension and will have approximately 100 workers on the project at peak times. The majority of the workforce will be staying at a camp owned by Imperial along the powerline route and an overflow is staying at the company's Red Chris construction camp, said Robertson. Another company, Arctic Power, was chosen to the build the line from Tatogga Lake to the Red Chris site. As challenging as building a major powerline may be, so is the background to the extension. That's because it is meant to serve both the needs of Imperial's Red Chris mine and of BC Hydro. When the Northwest Transmission Line was first announced, the federal government stepped in with a $130 million grant, but only if BC Hydro built a line to Iskut to take that community and surrounding area off of diesel power. With Iskut being approximately 112 kilometres north of Bob Quinn, BC Hydro faced the prospect of building its own line to Iskut just to qualify for the federal grant. But with Imperial also needing hydro power for Red Chris as an alternative to more
costly and polluting diesel generators, it and BC Hydro worked out a deal which, overall, is resulting in a larger capacity line than both
would need individually. When the portion to Tatogga Lake is complete, it'll be turned over to BC Hydro in return for a $52 million pay-
ment to Imperial Metals. Imperial is responsible for any costs over that amount and Robertson said the company
has yet to release that figure. But overall, he said the extension project makes sense for BC Hydro and for Imperial.
“The province is getting a great piece of infrastructure,” said Robertson. BC Hydro is responsible for running a
smaller line from Tatogga Lake north to Iskut, a distance of approximately 16 kilometres. It estimates that cost at $5 million.
There’s snow deal like this.

Thornhill Fire Department gives back DUE TO the huge success of the Thornhill Fire Department’s annual parade of lights and food collection for the Salvation Army food bank, an extra day has been added to the route from the normal two days it has been. The beginning and end times have been adjusted to allow the whole community an opportunity to see the parade, which sees the fire department string lights on its fire engines and drive around Thornhill and area playing Christmas carols to thank the community for its support throughout the year. Weather can interfere with the event and force changes along the way, so this year the public can follow the journey on facebook and twitter with instant updates and locations so everybody will know where the fire engines are at all times. The route will be posted or there will be a link to see the route of travel and the dates, and approximate times of their arrival to certain areas. Thornhill Fire Department has partnered with the local 747 air cadets to assist with the food collection along the parade route. To keep the trucks moving, chase vehicles will collect the food donations after the parade has passed, which will provide a safer method of food collection and keep the public from approaching the large trucks to hand over the donations. For any members of the Thornhill community that won’t be able to donate on the parade night and have items to donate, the Thornhill Fire Department will come and collect from your home. The planned routes for the Parade of Lights is as follows as of Nov. 23: • December 15 from 6 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. will be Upper and Lower Thornhill and the Churchill drive area. • December 16 from 6 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. will be Queensway and Copper Mountain. • December 17 from 6 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. will be south to Lakelse Lake, east to Usk, and Copper River estates. For more information or to set up a donation pickup, please call 250-638-1466 and leave a message or email deputy_ chief@thornhillfire.ca.

LAUGHING IN the snow: filming takes a break for the King Crow and the Ladies from Hell music video while snow comes down hard. Director Talon Gillis sets up the shot at the sawmill while other band members disrobe themselves before entering the frame.
Band makes its first video By JOSH MASSEY WHEN TALON Gillis was planning his music video shoot for the Terrace band King Crow and the Ladies from Hell, he was envisioning rainy conditions and grey skies. But the weather gods threw a curve ball and the first big snowfall came that day. Dressed in short sleeves, one even wearing a kilt, the band braved the cold out at Just Cut It Sawmilling lumber mill that served as the set for the edgy tribute to their song “In the Ground” off their coming album. While it meant more warm up breaks and a little bit of slipping around, Gillis said the falling snow added an unexpected and striking aspect to the lighting. “The song is about working hard. You’ve been trudging through this long work period and you see light at the end but you don’t get to enjoy it. You just work your whole life away,” he said of the main theme. “The band chose the song for me. They ap-

proached me and said ‘can you make a video.’ I’ve always wanted to work with King Crow,” said Gillis. The band has built a reputation for their northern mix of working class lyric themes with Celtic, folk and gypsy punk dabbled with notes of the ethereal provided through flute, and Gillis said ideas came immediately to him when he heard the “In the Ground.” The idea of the oppression from too much work led to Gillis’s artistic vision of zombielike workers rocking out at a sawmill. “I wanted to film in a way that kind of showed the style of the band and mostly wanted images that reflected how I first felt when I heard the song,” said Gillis. “The way the melody went, there was a lot of slow movement and I wanted that eerie, creepy feel. I knew right away to have zombie workers and wanted to make a video around that concept. I wanted a darker feel.” “I planned something that didn’t have a huge budget. It was idea driven,” Gillis con-
TERRACE HOSPICE Society’s Celebrate a Life may be more poignant this year with the recent losses of five lives. The event is for everyone who wants to remember a lost loved one with special readings, a candle lighting ceremony, and honouring a loved one by putting a tag with that person’s name on a tree, which is displayed afterward in a public place in town where people can add their loved ones names to it. The guest speaker will be Joelle
tinued. His previous experience making images in the north includes photography, filming of snowboarding and video shorts. At the time of this interview, Gillis was planning a trip to Vancouver to edit the video. Other people participating in the project include King Crow’s band manager Sarah Zimmerman and makeup artist and hair stylist Emily Albright, both from Terrace too. “The band is really excited about the video and to have an early release to build momentum for their first full length album,” said Zimmerman. Gillis said the video should be finished sometime around Christmas and the King Crow and the Ladies from Hell will be doing a show for the release, with the album coming some time after that. Band members include: Bobby Middleton, Leah MacKay, Jeff Chapman, Dylan Gordon, Torence Sandhals, Garrett Kerr, Sam Hogarth, Jamie Norton and Mark Billey.
McKeirnan, who has her own grief counselling service and there will be music from Amy Keberniky’s music students. It’s non-denominational and for all ages. Christmas is not an easy time when a person has lost a loved one to death since it’s a season of joy and cheer but for those who’ve lost someone, it can be the toughest time of the year. There’s a marked contrast between how a person is supposed to feel during the season and how that person actually feels; there’s memo-
ries and experiences people won’t have because their loved one is not there. People don’t have to be alone as they can gather with others to share their loss; others may know all too well how they feel. People who come can be mourning any loss, such as a miscarriage. If people want to, they can bring a gift for the Salvation Army hampers, but it’s not required. For more details on Celebrate a Life, see Community Calendar on page B4.

I
can’t believe it’s only been 16 days since I returned from London. Already my memories feel more like dreams. Crazy! I didn’t think I was going to regale you with tales from across the pond, but enough kind people asked me to write a followup, that what can I do but spill some of the fun, fading-too-quickly, details? The first surprise came before I left Canadian airspace. I used to think I didn’t like flying. It turns out I only dislike flying in small, cramped, bumpy, cold, loud planes. I adore lounging in huge, lush planes, with movies and blankets and flight attendants who bring wine. I’ve since been informed that it’s not usual, at all, to get three seats to yourself on an overseas flight, and I admit close seatmates wouldn’t have been cool, but hey, I didn’t have seatmates, so there! Heathrow is a huge airport—and I was a little shocked by how serious the customs guy took my entry into the country. Maybe I was a little too wideeyed and smiley, thus suspicious. In no particular order, some of my first impressions: the train station, all those platforms, like something directly out of Harry Potter, and the tube! And people! So many, many, many people. Everywhere! The incredible age of buildings and homes. All the beautiful brick (house after house after house is brick): so lovely. A touch of disappointment at the accents—softer, less pronounced than I expected. (Later, when I travelled to Lancashire, I got my fix— some wonderful voices and words there! And speaking of accents, I apparently have a strong one and was frequently asked to repeat myself. Ha, who knew?) My friend and I (so much thanks to her for all the fun we had) visited every place on my itinerary, except for Stratford-upon-Avon, due to car issues (who
JUST A THOUGHT
EV BISHOP
Home again, home again, jiggety jig knew cars in the UK can be just as temperamental as their Canadian cousins?), and I can’t pick favourites. I was incredibly moved by Westminster Abbey (People have been worshipping and seeking God there for nearly 1,000 years!), and equally as much by St. Paul’s Cathedral. The Tower of London was every bit as fascinating as I thought it would be, though much, much bigger, with many more towers and crooks and crannies than I was expecting. The graffiti etched into the stone, some of it dating back to the 1500s was, is . . . mind-blowing. Very sad some of it, and thoughtprovoking—and amazing that all those images and messages, pleas and testaments of beliefs and conviction, carved by hand, still survive today. The dominant emotion of my trip? A
sort of surreal joy, akin to surprise. I was constantly awed by the generations of stories attached to places, by the age and the ornate detail of the historic buildings, and by the juxtaposition of the ancient with the ultra modern. It’s one thing to know intellectually that something exists—and quite another to visit it yourself . . . to walk over the vaults of interred kings and queens and other folk . . . to see segments of Roman walls . . . to view actual, original paintings by Monet . . . Mind blowing. As much fun as I had in London, it felt like a place to visit. I had no daydreams about living there—which was why a touch of wistfulness when I visited Oxford after touring Stonehenge (Stonehenge! Such a crazy, mysterious place!) startled me. I love the life my husband and kids and I have built and wouldn’t change it, but we all have those roads not taken in our past that sometimes, when thinking back, give us pause and make us wonder what if . . . I would have loved to read English at Oxford. Another slightly strange moment of familiarity or kinship hit when I arrived in Adlington in Lancashire to meet extended family. I swear my grandpa chose to settle in Smithers, on Kidd Rd., because the landscape was so like that of his childhood’s—though with Cottonwood trees, not Beech. I had a bizarre sense of coming home. The Chorley/ Rivington/Adlington area fit my imagination’s vision of “English countryside” perfectly—lovely, green and rolling, and covered with sheep! It may sound cheesy, but it was a dream trip—though when I left, I was definitely ready to be home with my honey in our wildly beautiful, sparsely populated corner of the woods. And do I already have future gallivants planned? Yes, I just might . . . .

Welcome to the driver’s seat
The S3 really is the sweet spot for drivers that want to have extra power but with a very compliant and comfortable ride. Zack Spencer

Audi’s road ahead paved with more than good intentions 2014 Audi A3 Cabriolet/S3 MONACO: Over the next 12 months or so, consumers are going to be treated to an onslaught of new entries into the premium market. Not to worry, the next wave of German sedans and convertibles are of a more affordable nature. Recently Mercedes Benz introduced their all-new CLA 250 at an eye-popping price of just $34,000 for a sleek and sexy sedan. Next year we will see the introduction of BMW’s new 1-series and 2-Series sedans, coupes and convertibles. Audi has been ahead of the curve as they helped pioneer this entry-level segment with the original, the A3 sportback, sold in Canada for years. The all-new Audi A3 sedan will arrive in March of 2014 and the convertible and more powerful S3 sedan will arrive in the fall of 2014. This week I had a chance to drive both the convertible and S3 in Monte Carlo, a full year ahead of their introduction here. Audi is one of the fastest growing premium brands and a big part of that is the variety of cars they offer. Unfortunately, we will no longer get the sportback, but the fact we get the rest of the line of A3s is exciting for buyers. Looks The A3 is built off a shared platform with VW called MQB. This platform was a significant investment for the VW group as it is lighter, bigger and stronger than the last Golf platform and provides a sturdy basis for the A3 Cabrio and S3. The new Cabriolet is 60kg lighter than the outgoing European model, yet the wheelbase is longer and the interior room and trunk more ample. It could be argued that Audi is building some of the most attractive cars these days and these smaller products still convey the same sense of power and solidity that the bigger products portray. The S3 is especially forceful with a 15mm lower stance than the A3 sedan. The air intakes are bigger with more detail; the side mirrors are highlighted with brushed aluminum; and the rear of the car looks more masculine thanks to chunky exhaust tips. The

Terrance (Terry) E. Bohan
June 22, 1947- November 16, 2013 Terry passed away on Saturday, November 16, 2013, with the love of his life, Joan by his side after a short hard fought battle with cancer. He was predeceased by his parents, Tom and Anastasia Bohan. Terry grew up New Denver, BC and after High School, he attended Selkirk College in Castlegar where he studied Business Administration. After a short foray into the workforce in Alberta, he returned to BC and work for the Department of Highways. He transferred to Terrace B. C. where he continued to work until his retirement in 2002. Shortly after his retirement, Terry returned to New Denver and during a sunny, winter migration he met and fell in love with Joan. Terry was very happy in his retirement and with Joan by his side, they spend a lot of time traveling and enjoying life to its fullest. Terry is survived by Joan and his sisters, Fran, Pat, Shirley and Gail along with several nephews and nieces. We all miss him so much. Terryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wish was for cremation with a celebration of his life to be held in New Denver in the Spring of 2014.
