right of refusal, but it’s expected those who do return will receive lower wages, fewer benefits and will lose seniority. “Your actions and treatment of employees is something that happens in third world countries, not Canada,” said Lois Jarvis of Campbell River’s Citizens For Quality Health Care. The protest rally started at a packed Spirit Square with speeches from Samson, Jarvis, North Island MLA Claire Trevena, BC Federation of Labour President Jim Sinclair and HEU secretary Bonnie Pearson who said the provincial government is “commodifying human services.” “This is not the first mass layoff in seniors care,” said Pearson, who noted that Park Place is doing the same thing at a 160-bed home in Duncan which it recently bought. “Contract flipping is rampant in this province. It’s not about providing care and it’s obviously not about improving care. Rather, it’s about private owners ducking their responsibilities to the seniors who need the care and the

workers who provide it. “This is not about workers making too much money. It’s about Park Place and others not making enough money!” Following the speeches, the growing group marched through the snowy streets to New Horizons on 14th Avenue. They stood on the south side of the building, chanted slogans against the owners, heard more speeches, and waved to staff and residents who watched from the windows above.

“This (Liberal) government puts profits ahead of people and that is so wrong,” said Trevena during her speech at Spirit Square. “They have no respect for the rule of law. They have no respect for workers’ rights. They have no respect for trade unions and that is wrong.” The HEU is hoping to start a province-wide movement to protest more re-contracting and Samson said municipal governments should lobby the Health Minister or, he suggested, the

Union of BC Municipalities should protest the government’s policy. But this protest isn’t just about jobs, said Jarvis, who said residents will also be negatively affected by the workforce turnover. “Quality of life for sick or elderly people demands the best-qualified, most-dedicated staff available. That’s what they have currently at New Horizons and that’s the way it should stay.” paulr@campbellrivermirror.com

SHARE YOUR OPINION ON THE FUTURE OF THE ALDER STREET CORRIDOR! We’re reviewing opportunities to improve Alder Street - and want public feedback on how best to balance Alder Street’s role as one of the primary north-south routes with safe access to and from the many single-family homes along this 7.5 kilometre street. We also want your opinion on sidewalk improvements, how to better accommodate bicycles and bus stop upgrades. Join us at a public open house on Wednesday, March 12 between 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. at the Sportsplex. See examples of options that could be considered for this route, and learn more about the City’s 2012 Master Transportation Plan – a vision for the community’s multi-modal transportation system for the next 25 years. Boulevard Traffic Group and City staff will be on hand to discuss options and gather public feedback as we work towards the next steps for this important transportation corridor. Updates on the corridor review will be posted on the City’s website and Facebook Page. View the City of Campbell River’s Master Transportation Plan online at www.campbellriver.ca under City Services / Roads and Transportation / Studies.

The City of Campbell River’s Traffic and Highways Regulation bylaw does not require owners or tenants of single and duplex residents to clear snow and ice from sidewalks, but it is a courtesy to neighbours in residential areas when you do - and it’s especially helpful for people with mobility challenges. For that reason, the City’s bylaw requests these private property owners to clear snow and ice from sidewalks near their property. According to City bylaw: • Owners or tenants of commercial, industrial and institutional premises must clear snow and ice from sidewalks abutting their premises by 10 a.m. on any day the premises are open to the public. • Owners or managers of multi-unit residential premises must clear snow and ice from sidewalks abutting their premises by 10 a.m. on any day the premises are occupied.

City Currents When winter weather comes to Campbell River, City crews work to keep emergency City ofroutes CRand main roads (like Dogwood, Alder and Hwy. 19A) passable for traffic. Depending on the amount of snow falling, the second priority is to clear collector roads, transit routes, and most commercial areas, including select public parking and facilities.

For several days last week, we deployed our limited resources around the clock to keep major routes and collector roads and transit routes open. It takes us longer to get to local roads, but all were clear by day three of last week’s storm. How you can help: • To enable pedestrians and people using mobility assistance, please clear snow and ice from the sidewalk in front of your home. • • • • •

To keep roadways clear for vehicles, shovel snow from sidewalks away from the road. To help snowplows clear streets, park cars off the road during or after a snowstorm. Help melting snow drain away - and prevent puddles and flooding - by cleaning storm drain grates. Use transit whenever possible. Drive only if you have good snow tires and a cold weather emergency kit. Drivers should slow down and move to the right when approaching a plow or sand/salt truck. Also, keep well back from plows and sanders, to ensure everyone’s safely when they reverse.

BC Hydro signs off contract – ready for blasting www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Bring on the blasters and the rock trucks. The contract to build the new John Hart G enerat ing St at ion was signed on Friday between BC Hydro and InPower BC, a project company set up by SNCLavalin Group Inc. The estimated cost of the Campbell River project is $1.093 billion dollars.

“John Hart is an important facility for us on Vancouver Island,” said Chris O’Riley, Hydro’s VP of Generation, in a news release. “BC Hydro has worked hard since 2007 to advance this major project by developing the best plan and the best design to deal with a 67-year-old generating station that has

seismic, reliability and fish habitat risks.” Work is expected to begin by late April to replace the three 1.8-kilometre wooden penstocks – that run from John Hart Lake, down General Hill to the generating station – with a 2.1-kilometre tunnel. The 8.1-metre diameter tunnel will be blasted and

most of the rock will be hauled away and divided between the Campbell River and Cape Mudge First Nations. The latter intends to build a commercial port at Middle Point, located just north of the city. The new generating station will also be built underground, allowing for the removal of the old station when

work is completed by 2017. The number of people working at the site will grow to 200 by the end of this year and peak at 340 in 2016. SNC-Lavalin will run the project out of its Vancouver office, including working and co-ordinating with international team members on the specialized design and

fabrication of components such as generators and turbines. “This is a major project for BC Hydro and Vancouver Island, and we look forward to building on the community support that’s already in place for the project,” said Robert Card, president and CEO of SNCLavalin.

BC Hydro and SNCLavalin will host business opportunity events on March 31 and April 1 in Campbell River for the upcoming subcontractor and jobs opportunities. More details on the event can be found at cr.majorprojects.ca. For more information on the project, visit bchydro. com/johnhart.

The Block family had a great time at the Vancouver Canucks game last Wednesday thanks to Save-On Foods. Ten-yearold Matthew (third from left) was the lucky winner of the store’s Every Kids Dream contest. He skated with the Canucks and stood on the blue line for the pre-game ceremony to honour Olympic medalists, and the singing of the national anthems. Save-On also made sure Matthew and his older brother Kyle received new Canuck jerseys. On Tuesday, Matthew spent two hours undergoing an MRI to determine if he requires open heart surgery.

hold off on reviewing a consultant’s report on the city’s boundary extension proposal. “I want to defer until the public consultation in Area D is complete,” Leigh said. “The public consultation has just begun. I expect input from my constituents.” Director and Coun. Claire Moglove asked the board to not defer, noting the regional district is legislated to respond to the consultant’s report and identify any impacts to affected services. Moglove said the regional district’s input is also vital to the public engagement sessions, so

it does not make sense to wait until the public consultation period is over. “The city wants to have accurate information to take to the citizens and that’s a very important process to go through,” Moglove said. “I think it’s really important that the information from the response of the SRD (Strathcona Regional District) be available to be presented to the constituents.” But Leigh implied the city is wasting its time and may want to hold off after engaging with Area D residents. “Campbell River has the option, when they

hear from Area D residents, to stop the process in its tracks and stop wasting our time and money and our (regional district) staff ’s time and money,” Leigh said. That prompted Russ Hotsenpiller, the regional district’s chief administrative officer, to note that the regional district, with the city’s support, has applied to the province for financial support to hire the expertise needed to complete the report and keep the item cost neutral. But Leigh was doubtful. “I’ve never seen provincial funding come through in 30 days,”

Leigh said. “I feel once the public consultation takes place it’ll be clear whether this moves forward or not. It’s prudent to have the public come out for the public consultation and then if it looks like it was going to move ahead at all – which it probably won’t – then have our staff take on all this time and work.” Which was w hen Director Jim Abram (Quadra Island) stepped in. “As your chair, I’d like to say for clarity’s sake, this is a real chicken and egg situation here,” Abram said. “So I am having a really hard time

with this Brenda, sorry. You can still have public hearings, all we’re doing at this point is giving staff the go-ahead to start the process. So (staff ) can start looking at what are the ramifications of this proposal.” In the end, the board voted in favour of having staff move forward with studying the city’s boundary extension proposal so that the regional district can respond. That response will come back to the regional district board at a later date. The regional district is expected to complete its review of the report and its response by March 28.

impending BC Ferries service cuts. The area in and around Campbell River is represented by Jim Abram, Area C director and chair of the Strathcona Regional District. Abram is one of 10 elected officials

that make up the Special Committee on BC Ferries. The purpose of the committee is to oversee the work of a consultant, commissioned by the Union of BC Municipalities and Association of Vancouver Island and Coastal

Communities to conduct a report on the economic impact that service reductions will have on ferry-dependent communities. “B.C. local governments are saying it is time to take a look at how reductions in service and

fare increases will impact B.C. communities,” said Rhona Martin, president of the Union of BC Municipalities. “Ferries play a vital role in the province-wide transportation system that is a key support for the B.C. economy.”

Residents voice concerns with city annexation proposal KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Remaining Area D residents could be on the hook for lost tax dollars if some Area D residents join the city of Campbell River. Dan Wong, a consultant with Urban Systems which has studied the impacts of the city extending its southern boundary, told roughly 200 residents who attended a public information session Feb. 27 that taxpayers could potentially pick up the slack. Wong said the loss of Area D properties that the city is considering annexing would cost the remaining Area D residents $122,000 per year in lost revenue. Wong also said, however, that there are precedents set that could see the province step up to compensate affected taxpayers. Rod Nugent, chair of

Around 200 residents listen intently to a presentation Thursday evening at Ocean Grove Elementary from Urban Systems Consulting concerning the city’s proposal to extend its southern boundary.

the Area D Ratepayers Association and who attended the open house at Ocean Grove Elementary, said Wong spoke to the group assembled for several hours to review projected costs and financing details of the project. “Most attendees were there to get more information on the city’s proposal,” Nugent said. “However, there were

several people who expressed their hostility to the whole concept of annexation by the city and suggested the city of Campbell River was simply engineering a land and tax grab.” One concerned resident said many living in Area D want sewers but do not want to join the city. He thought the best solution was the one

proposed a year and a half ago. In 2011, the city and the Strathcona Regional District were negotiating a deal that would see the city contract out its sewer service to Area D residents. However, the city pulled out of those talks in the summer of 2012. The city had sent the regional district a proposal to provide sewer

service as part of a master service agreement that would also cover transit and water supply, with comparable costs for city and Area D residents. But the regional district wanted a separate agreement for each service, according to a city news release. In the end, council believed it was unfair for the city to pay for the costs to extend its sewer service and not re-coup those costs, as Area D residents do not pay development cost charges. “For the city to provide sewer service to Area D, upgrades to the city’s existing sewer system would be required, and it is the city’s view that these costs should be recovered,” said Coun. Mary Storry in a July 2012 news release. “Council also agreed it would be inappropriate to subsidize development outside the city.”

So the city pulled its offer and months later proposed expanding the city boundary into Area D to provide those properties with city sewer service. But Area D Director Brenda Leigh has said that her constituents don’t want to join the city as they don’t want to give up their rural lifestyle and pay taxes at the higher city rate. The city maintains it is sticking with its annexation proposal because of health issues. According to the city’s website, the city is exploring a boundary extension to address “known environmental and public health concerns related to failing and potentially failing septic systems, and ensure a more coordinated approach to growth and development.” But Nancy Clements from Vancouver Island

Health and who attended Thursday’s public meeting said that there are no current studies of the health-related issues connected to Area D septic systems – the most recent date back at least five years. Residents at the public meeting also heard that affected Area D residents, and only those living on properties tagged for annexation, will be allowed to vote in a referendum that is likely to happen this fall. Leigh said at Thursdays regional district board meeting that her constituents all want to have a say. “I’ve been told they want a referendum for all of Area D because it affects all of Area D,” Leigh said. But Russ Hotsenpiller, CAO of the regional district, said only those potentially going in would be allowed to vote.

Regional Island Health releases child district taxes and youth mental health guide on the rise

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Strathcona Regional District has approved in principle a slight tax increase for Campbell River tax payers. The regional district’s board of directors last Thursday supported a 2014 budget that includes an $11 increase for the average assessed Campbell River home over last year’s residential tax rate. Dawn Christenson, the regional district’s financial services manager, said the increase can be attributed to property assessments done by the BC Assessment Authority. “What’s happening with the assessments is that two jurisdictions were given assessment increases,” Christenson told the board during a budget slideshow presentation. Those two communities are Campbell River and Cortes Island. Cortes will see taxes increase by $26 based on the average assessed home of $345,000. The only other area within the regional district to see a tax hike in 2014 is Area C (Quadra Island), with a slight $1 tax increase for the average assessed home. Sayward will see its taxes go down by $8 while Tahsis and the Kyuquot/ Nootka portion of Area A will see $1 reductions. Area D will receive

an approximate $98 tax break in 2014 while the Sayward portion of Area A will see a whopping $118 decrease in taxes in 2014. Christenson said the significant reduction is due in part to changes in the fire protection services and solid waste contracts. Zeballos and Gold River will see no change in the tax rate for 2014. Solid waste user fees for Sayward and Cortes Island will remain the same in 2014 at $160 and $92 respectively while Quathiaski Cover sewer fees will go down to $497 in 2014, from $562 in 2013, thanks to a grant from the province. Area D water rates for the Craig Road area are budgeted at $353 in 2014, up from the 2013 rate of $260. However, the 2014 rate is pending the outcome of ongoing negotiations with the city of Campbell River which supplies the water. Brenda Leigh, director for Area D, also slightly tweaked the tax rate for Area D by reducing Area D’s grant-in-aid budget to the 2013 level. Leigh said she has been receiving grant-in-aid requests from community groups that are less than last year’s amount. The regional district board is expected to give first, second and third readings to the budget at its March 12 board meeting, with final adoption expected March 27.

Families now have access to an important information and resources guide for child and youth mental health and substance use services in the Campbell River and Comox Valley areas. Island Health has partnered with the FORCE Society for Kids’ Mental Health to publish the “Orientation to Child, Youth & Family Mental Health and Substance Use Services.” With significant support and input from families, key members of the Aboriginal community and service providers, the orientation guide will help families find support, resources and connections to help guide them when children or youth are experiencing mental health and substance use challenges. The guide is dedicated in memory of Hayden Blair Kozeletski and is illustrated with Kozeletski’s art.

Our View

Province, BCTF need to focus on students The figures compiled by B.C.’s school districts about the cost of implementing a court ruling by B.C. Supreme Court Justice Susan Griffin are staggering. Campbell River School District figures it would cost an additional $3.1 million in the first year alone to restore class size and We say: This composition to the 2002 level, as per issue needs to be a contract between the provincial resolved once and government and B.C. Teachers Federation which was arbitrarily for all suspended by the province at that time. The contract had been imposed, against their will, on school districts in 1999 by the NDP government headed by Premier Glen Clark.

Since the 2002 decision to take the class size and composition limits out of the contract, the BCTF has fought vigorously to get them back. The union launched lawsuits, went on an illegal strike (and gained significant public support) and, thus far, has won two lawsuits in Justice Griffin’s courtroom. In the first case, she ordered the BCTF and government to bargain and address the class size and composition issues. She gave the government a year to implement her ruling. Bargaining did take place, albeit at a glacial pace, and there was no resolution within the year. The union went back to the judge, and she ordered the former contract reinstated. The government says that would cost at least $500 million annually.

The province has now appealed that ruling to the B.C. Court of Appeal, which said last week that there is no immediate need to go back to the 2002 conditions, until the appeal is heard. While that gives school districts some breathing room, it is obvious this issue needs to be resolved once and for all. Parents and students deserve some certainty. The BCTF is flexing its muscles, and is taking a strike vote this week — and it will be very surprising if there is not some job action, either at the end of this school year or at the beginning of the next one. While the government has certainly provoked the union on a number of occasions, the union’s blithe Continued on Pg. 9

Letters

Congratulations EDM Further to your article in Wednesday’s paper (Feb.19), I would like to congratulate the teachers of Ecole des Deux Monde for their wonderful article on Feb. 12, telling us about their outdoor forest project to prevent a nature deficit disorder in their K-1 children. Not only did the article give us insight into the need for outdoor forest play. Back to the nature-deficit idea. How well I remember as a child wondering how my in-town friends filled their lives with excitement when there were no cows for them to milk and herd, no pigs to feed, no eggs to collect, or hay to sleep on in the hayloft. My city cousins came to visit and the first thing they did was trip off to the pigsty to see if there were any young piglets to pick up and cuddle, not something we ever did. They were starved for closeness to nature while we would get excited about a trip into town or to the big city once or twice a year. Growing up within nature’s full spectrum can only be a good thing. As Noam Chomsky so ably says, “Ordinary people who do creative things can help change the world”, I say thank you to the teachers, especially Vachon and Dallaire, at EDM for putting their creative idea into practice. Claire Hunston We welcome your opinions on stories and issues published in our pages as well as issues of broader concern encountered elsewhere. Please keep your letters brief. We reserve the right to edit for length and liability. E-mail them to editor@campbellrivermirror.com

Dear editor: you’re a doofus and a bad dresser – Anonymous

Alistair Taylor

Out On A Limb @AlstrT

editor@campbellrivermirror.com

I often get letters to the editor without a name attached to them. Sometimes it’s signed “Name Withheld” or first name, last initial. Then there’s the “Disgruntled Taxpayer” or “Anonymous” and the ubiquitous “Resident of Campbell River” – frequently, a “Long Time Resident.” You don’t see these in our paper, of course, because we don’t run letters that don’t have a name signed to them. It’s our policy. If you dropped off a letter to the editor without your name and a contact phone number on it somewhere, you’re probably wondering where that letter is right now. Well, it’s either in my recycling box or it’s already been re-pulped soon to become another paper product. We don’t run unsigned letters to

the editor. But it’s amazing how many people don’t notice this, judging by the continuing submission of letters to the editor with no name on them. It amazes me how many people think they can drop off a blank envelope containing a multi-page submission with no name attached to it whatsoever. What do you think this is? The internet? Sorry, but you do not get to blast your mouth off without people knowing who you are. I joked about the internet but we don’t even allow unsigned submissions on our web page. You can submit a comment on an story anonymously or with a fake name, but it will be removed from our website as soon as I notice it. I once heard it said that, if it’s worth saying, it’s worth signing your name to it. And I live by that. Just as you see my

name attached to my opinions on the left of this missive, you, too, will be required to put your name to your submission. And, in case, you’re wondering about the editorial at the top of the page, it doesn’t have a name but it’s a comment that the editor of this paper stands behind. That’s why it’s called an editorial. It’s a statement from this paper – ultimately, its owner and staff. You know who’s standing behind it. There’s a number of reasons why we don’t publish unsigned submissions. By signing your name to it, you take responsibility for the accuracy – to the best of your knowledge – of what you’ve written. You’re also more likely to be sensitive about what you say. Although, as the editor, I won’t let racist or libelous state-

ments go through. Now, you may question my judgement on that and that’s your prerogative. But there are legal limitations on slander and libel and I’ve got a pretty good handle on them. If I have any doubt, I do have access to a legal opinion on it. There are also laws regarding “hate mail” that’s raciallyoriented. With the rise of e-mail, social media and web forums, people have become used to the idea of firing off their opinion of something – or someone – without any worry about repercussions. It’s one development in our digital age that’s not such a good thing. Sometimes it seems there’s a compelling reason to allow anonymity. Someone may be concerned about her job or

a friend or family members’. Or it may identify a person dealing with a condition that has a social stigma attached to it. And those are always legitimate. But it raises the possibility that they could be fake or not true. The reader doesn’t know. At the very least, you hope the editor knows who this person is and has all the contact information filed away. But if you’ve got all that

information, consider how much more powerful it becomes when you see that person’s name attached. First of all, consider how brave that person is to speak out about the issue or situation. Consider how authoritative that statement becomes when you know who said it – you can’t question the legitimacy of that experience, because they’ve lived it. On those kinds of issues though, I’m more

sympathetic – but I’ve still not found reason enough to withhold a name. What I won’t tolerate are people who won’t sign their name to a letter criticizing the city or the RCMP or some authority like that. The implication is that a city employee is going to hunt you down and slap you with a large tax bill because you dared to speak out against your local government! You see how ridiculous that sounds?

to agencies like the Medical Services Plan, TransLink, ICBC, TrEO and BC Hydro and the challenges of finding good-paying jobs all combine to make it tough for many. Teachers deserve to be treated fairly and in a responsible way, and breaking contracts is no way to sort out disagreements. However, they also need to engage in meaningful bargaining with the provincial government, and not create even more uncertainty within

the education system. If B.C.’s economy is to return to its robust state, it requires a welleducated population. Teachers are a critical and essential part of that solution. They deserve a fair contract, and they also need to remember who is paying their wages and benefits — taxpayers. More focus on students, by both the BCTF and the province, and less political rhetoric, is badly needed. – Black Press

Or if you say something against the RCMP, they’re going to lay in wait on Dogwood Street and when they pull you over to check your licence, they’ll hear a “ping!” as a warning pops up on their computer identifying you as a person who felt RCMP officers are paid too

much! Oh man, you’re getting a ticket for sure! Believe me, if that kind of thing were to happen, you can bet we’d do a story on it. But it doesn’t happen. You have legal rights and the Mounties are not laying in wait for the opportunity to deprive you of them. That’s ludicrous

But you do have a right...no, you have an obligation to speak out and the letter to the editor section is a place

where you can do it. But you’ve got to sign your name to it. And don’t make it too long either.

ignorance of the province’s fiscal state is also grating. An additional $500 million per year comes from just one source — taxpayers. Teachers are already well-paid, and while their jobs certainly come with a great number of challenges, they aren’t the only ones. The B.C. economy is far from robust, and many people are struggling to get by. High housing prices, rising user fees paid

and that all your investments will last a lifetime.

Kathy Furmaniak CFP, CPCA Financial Consultant

Retirement can be viewed as a series of stops-and-starts. For example, stop scheduling your life around work hours and start going with your personal lifestyle ﬂow. Stop stressing about your morning and evening commutes and start driving when you want. Stop worrying about project deadlines and start engaging in personal interest projects and pastimes on your own timelines.

In keeping with these three objectives, here are some other important postretirement tax-reduction and income-protection strategies:

4X10

• Plan Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF) withdrawals Withdrawals from investments held in your RRIF are fully taxable – so manage your taxable income by withdrawing only amounts that are required. • Reduce taxes through tax efﬁcient asset allocation Keep fullytaxable, interest-generating investments inside a tax-deferred Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) or RRIF as long as possible while keeping assets that are more tax-efﬁcient those that generate capital gains or Canadian dividends – outside your registered plans. • Take full advantage of all available tax credits and deductions Don’t forget the age credit for those aged 65 and older, the pension income credit and medical expense credit. • Reduce your taxes by splitting Canada or Québec

Pension Plan (CPP/QPP) income with your spouse When your spouse has a lower CPP/QPP entitlement and is in a lower tax bracket. • Contribute to a spousal RRSP You must convert your RRSP to a RRIF no later than December 31 of the year in which the owner attains age 71.

Talk to your professional INVESTORS GROUP advisor about smart tax-

Tax planning is one thing that deﬁnitely should not stop when your employment stops. Post-retirement tax strategies are vital to maintaining the retirement lifestyle you want for all the years of your retirement. Start with these three incomeprotecting objectives:

planning an investment strategies that make sense for your retirement – like investing in a Monthly Income Portfolio (MIP) that can protect your income against inflation and generate stable and reliable income distribution (outside your RRIF or RRSP) and potentially higher long-term growth – so you’ll continue to have the income you need for all your retirement years.

1. Always take full advantage of all the direct tax deductions available to you. 2. Keep your net income and taxable income low enough to avoid such potential pitfalls as the Old Age Security 1046 Cedar Street (OAS) clawback or losing Campbell River out on the age credit and Ph: 250-287-4739 possibly the GST/HST credit.

Average person is unable to differentiate between real science and pseudo-science The Op-Ed of Feb. 18 by Morgan Ostler is full of misleading information, the hallmark of the anti-GMO (or genetically engineered, GE) movement. The ban on GE crops in Europe was struck down by their highest court for “lack of evidence of harm to humans or the environment.” France recently tried to reinstate it but their senate rejected the new law for the same reasons. Critics of GE crops and derived food claim food

safety concerns but have not been able to find a single documented case of harm after almost 20 years of commercial GE crops and over three trillion meals containing ingredients from these crops. The World Health Organization 2013 document-Twenty Questions on GMO’s is clear when they say: “GM foods currently available on the international market have passed risk assessments and are not likely to

present risks for human health. In addition, no effects on human health have been shown as a result of the consumption of such foods by the general population in the countries where they have been approved.” – WHO 2013 In 2012, Richmond City Council decided they wanted to ban GE crops from their municipality. They asked the Van c ouve r C o a s t a l Health Authority for an opinion of GE crops and derived food. This was

the response: “There is no evidence that Health Canada approved GE foods and food crops are any less safe for human health than non-GE varieties. “There is no public health reason for a ban on genetically engineered trees, plants and crops as proposed by the resolution to Council.” – VCHA 2012 The American Association for the Advancement of Science said it well: “Moreover, the AAAS

Board said, the World Health Organization, the American Medical Association, the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, the British Royal Society, and ‘every other respected organization that has examined the evidence has come to the same conclusion: consuming foods containing ingredients derived from GM crops is no riskier than consuming the same foods containing ingredients from crop plants modified by conventional plant improve-

m e nt t e c h n i q u e s .’” – (AAAS 2012) The average person is not trained in the sciences involved with GE crops and is unable to differentiate between the real science and the prolific pseudo-science that is designed to scare not educate. Critics of GE crops reject global science and continually bring forward activist literature as evidence of harm from GE crops and derived food. GMO Myt hs and

Truths is an excellent example of the pseudoscience. World experts are not fooled. Campbell River Council should pay attention to the overwhelming scientific opinion on the safety of GE crops and food as public policy based on pseudo-science and resulting fear is bad public policy.

Great coffee gets great guitarist going Jesse Cook plays the Tidemark Theatre this Friday night Paul Rudan Campbell RiveR miRRoR

his Friday, the talented Canadian guitarist Jesse Cook and his backing players return to Campbell River’s Tidemark Theatre. They’ll be featuring music from “The Blue Guitar,” Cook’s eighth studio album. The album is a departure from anything resembling flamenco. Instead, Cook has produced a captivating album with a sound that allows listeners to appreciate each musician’s contribution. The live show will also include songs from his more familiar work: flamenco rumba, jazz, and many forms of world music. Joining Cook on stage will be Chris Church,

Gets some fibre Back by popular demand, the second annual Fibre Fest will take place May 2, 3 and 4 at the Campbell River Community Centre. And this year, the event has expanded, thanks to an exhibit, guided tour and talk about the history of coastal textiles at the Museum at Campbell River. Register soon for three fabulous days of spinning, weaving, knitting, crocheting, quilting, appliqué, embroidery, tatting and felting. This year’s feature artist will be Sally Melville, from Ottawa.

Jesse Cook branches out into styles other than his usual flamenco in his newest album. He performs at the Tidemark on Friday.

Rosendo “Chendy” Leon, Nicholas Hernandez and Dennis Mohammed. Last Friday, during a tour stop in Red Deer, Alberta, Cook spoke with the Mirror about

his music: Q. CR Mirror: When did you first learn to play guitar? A. Jesse Cook: I started when I was six…I think I’ve done 19 years of music study, but

it’s a lifetime pursuit. Q. CRM: Who influenced you? A. Cook: Paco de Lucia was a huge influence. He passed away while we were on tour – a very sad day. We dedi-

“Fibre Fest 2014 will feature basically anything people do using fibre!” says Jennifer Furst, auxiliary programmer with the City of Campbell River Recreation and Culture Department. “Last year was a huge success and we anticipate

a very large turnout once again thanks to lots of free demonstrations, a variety of workshops and much, much more.” Along with hands-on learning opportunities, Fibre Fest 2014 will feature a fibre market showcasing vendors from

all over Vancouver Island, a People’s Choice Gallery (showcasing local fibre artisans), the Fibre Café and lots of networking opportunities. Workshop registration starts March 7. Information is available at 250-286-1161.

cated a concert to him and we’ve been sitting in the bus playing Paco music…he changed the landscape of flamenco. Q. CRM: If you were not a musician, what would you be doing? A. Cook: I would be a pool hustler! I have a table. I also might work at Starbucks; I make a mean expresso.” Q. CRM:Who would you like to perform with? A. Cook: There’s a world of musicians I’d like to play with…I’m a huge Peter Gabriel fan, but I never got Genesis.” Q. CRM: Favourite guitar? A. Cook: Such a tough question! I have a lot of beautiful instruments. But the Conde Hermanos is considered the Stradivarius of flamenco guitars. It’s the one you

hear on all my records, but I don’t consider what I do as flamenco, it’s a hybrid. Q. CRM:Do you write when you’re touring? A. Cook: Oddly enough, never. If I write anything on tour I’d be amazed. Touring is like training for a marathon and it takes all your focus. It’s all about protecting your health and the health of your fingers. Q. CRM: So what do you do for health and nutrition while you’re touring? A. Cook: It all starts with a big cappuccino – we have our own expresso machine on the bus. I try to eat healthy for the first two meals of the day because with number three, who knows? I practise yoga and go for long

walks, take pictures of the places we visit, but I haven’t got out of the bus today which is kind of sad. It’s freezing out there.” Q. CRM: What theatre would you like to perform in? Somewhere you haven’t been? A. Cook: I’d love to play the Royal Albert Hall (in London, England), but our goal, as a band, is to play Carnegie Hall in 2015. This year we’re playing at the Town Hall in New York City, it’s just one stop away!” n There’s still a few seats available for Friday’s concert at the Tidemark. Tickets are $47.50 plus taxes at the box office or call 250-287-7465. This is a licensed event so you need to be 19 or older.

Team Profile

Ready to roll

By Kristen Douglas

With names like Foxie McMuff, Ballsy Benoit and Lumber Smack, Campbell River’s roller girls will floor you with the rock ‘em sock ‘em style of Roller Derby

hen Kim Emsley-Leik rollerskates around a rink, it’s no leisurely roll.

She takes numbers and clears bodies.

Emsley-Leik is one of a growing number of local women who have taken up the thrilling sport of roller derby. But it’s more than a sport. It has a culture all its own. It even comes with its own rough and cheeky nicknames. At the rink, Emsley-Leik becomes Foxie McMuff and her job as a blocker is to block the opposing team’s jammer from passing Emsley-Leik’s fellow blockers and scoring points. If the jammer gets around twice, she racks up one point for each skater she passes on the second lap. Emsley-Leik is one of seven from Campbell River who skate for the Rink Minx, a team based out of the Comox Valley. The other members are: Lindsey Ryzak, who’s known around the rink as Lita Riot, Peggy Benoit (Ballsy Benoit), Lisa Jackson (Whiskey Jack), Chantelle McPherson (Chantos Sanchez), Kari Barker (Swifty), and Taisa Brown (Lumber Smack). Though so many members of Rink Minx call Campbell River home, the team has had a difficult time bringing the sport to the River City.

“What’s challenging is finding the space,” Emsley-Leik says. “A lot of facility staff assume our roller skates will ruin the floor, which is not the case. So we practice in Courtenay, which is unfortunate because half the team is from Campbell River.” gear which includes a helmet, mouth and wrist guards, knee pads, elbow pads, and roller skates.

Emsley-Leik said she hopes the bout, which will attract teams from all over Vancouver Island, will show the viability of having the sport in Campbell River.

While serious injuries are rare, Emsley-Leik says she does come home with some “wicked” bruises. “We call them trophy bruises,” she says smiling. “They’re these huge things sometimes. We’re actually kind of proud of them.”

“Every time we host a bout there’s an influx of skaters,” Emsley-Leik says. “They spend money on hotels, on restaurants, they go shopping, they go to bars. The more events we have, it only benefits the community in the long run. People want events to go to, they want to be entertained.” And roller derby is no doubt entertaining. It’s a full contact sport full of positional, or booty blocking, ride outs, and hip whips. For that reason, each skater must wear full

But she enjoys it all the same. “I just love to skate,” says Emsley-Leik, a former figure skater, who first got into the sport while living in her hometown of Williams Lake. “I’ve always loved to skate. I like being a part of a team atmosphere. It also promotes fitness. We’re always trying to find a way to up the bar just one more notch.” Emsley-Leik and teammate Melicious Mooose (Melissa Curtis) have even started roll-

Bouts are typically held Saturday nights at the Comox Valley Sports Centre between May and July. But Emsley-Leik says the team is trying hard to bring some of the games to Campbell River. “I think the Campbell River girls definitely

Storm advance, Victoria awaits Jordan Rauser’s power play goal was all the Storm needed to advance to the semi-final in the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League. Campbell River skated to a 3-0 victory over the Nanaimo Buccaneers Friday night at the Rod Brind’Amour Arena to clinch the seven-game series 4-2. Backup goalie Russell Sanderson got the call and turned away 40 shots for the shutout. Rauser brought the fans to their feet at 10:19 of the first period. With the man advantage, the Storm had the Bucs’ penalty kill running around in their own end until Rauser finally found the back of the net with assists to Brendan deVries and Trent Johnson. In the second, the Storm PK was at its finest, fending off five Nanaimo power plays, including an extended 5-on-3 opportunity. The Bucs’ didn’t fare

so well down a man. At 12:35, deVries scored on the power play from Johnson and captain Brayden Taekema to go up 2-0. The Storm went on the attack after that and just 1:29 later, Rauser netted his second of the night from Curtis Toneff and Josiah Friesen. After Nanaimo failed to score with the twoman advantage, their forwards ran out of steam. The Storm will have its hands full in the semis against the Victoria Cougars, who finished first overall in the South Division. Game one is Thursday night in Victoria and game two is Friday night, in Campbell River, at the Brindy, and Storm owner Kevin Spooner is hoping to seek a packed crowd. “We need to fill this place up like we used to!” he said, pumped up following the series victory. “These kids are playing really good hockey right now, let’s fill this place up!”

Paul Rudan/The MiRRoR

Teammates mob Jordan Rauser (27) after his first period power play goal. That was all the Storm needed in skating to a 3-0 home victory over Nanaimo to clinch the first-round playoff series.

Two wrestlers top podium Campbell River had an outstanding performance at the 2014 BC High School Wrestling Championships which wrapped up Saturday in Prince George. Brett Nelson of Timberline Secondary won the first Male Provincial Title from Campbell River in 12 years. Nelson dominated his way to the 60 kg finals where he faced Safi Sharrar, a Burnaby wrestler to whom he had lost earlier this year. Rather than avoiding the rematch, Nelson specifically chose to wrestle this weight in order to even the score with Sharrar. In the finals, with his parents in attendance, Nels on conf ident ly avenged the loss, defeating Sharrar 12-2. For Nelson, who has been wrestling since Grade 5 and has placed

3rd, 3rd, 2nd, at previous championships, it was a dream come true. “I have gone to bed every night picturing myself winning that championship,” he said afterwards. “Sometimes when you wait a long time for something it isn’t as fulfilling as you expected…this is not one of those times.” Nelson is currently exploring his options to pursue wrestling at the post-secondary level. Carihi had the breakout star of the tournament in Grade 10 wrestler Ali McPhee. Coming into the tournament McPhee had been undefeated all year long in B.C. She kept her streak alive bye winning four straight matches at 64kg and claiming her first provincial title. In the finals she won a close match 6-4. “I just wanted to

semi-final, wrestling his way to a bronze medal finish on a severely sprained ankle. “The doctor’s said he was good to go and that was all he needed,” said his coach, Paul Murphy. “It is one of the gutsiest performances I have seen at this tournament,” he added. Rounding out the results with 5th place finishes were Timberline’s Dawson Mckay, and Carihi’s Hailey Dean. “They have worked so hard. Not just this year, but in the years leading up to this,” said Jason Kerluck, a Carihi coach who’s also president of the Campbell River Wrestling Association. “It is very satisfying to see all that effort pay off.” Next up for the wrestlers are the National Championships, taking place April 4-6 in Guelph, Ontario.

t Carihi, there are many programs linked to the events and overall functioning of the school. Most of these activities can be taken as courses and one of those is called Food Service Studies where any student can learn how to cook food and serve the public during lunch hours. The work

is hands on, great for beginners, and is a fantastic way to make new friends. One student at Carihi, Emily Bertrand, took the baking course, which is a branch of food services, during her first semester because she loved working with food and especially loved the baking aspect of it. “You’d think it’s super busy with all of the people, but it’s actually a lot of fun getting to know

everyone so well,” says Bertrand. The work the class did daily was a bit inconsistent, but for Bertrand, she liked being ready for anything, even if that included just doing the dishes. “We were productive every day,” says Bertrand. “We wanted to be on top of everything.” The first week of Fiddlejam, a fiddle group of mixed ages and abilities performs classes is just training, then the real fun begins. The students continue to help cooking and serving through lunch hour.

Showcasing your best work is stressful, whether you are going into it with a competitive mindset or not. “You try to think of it as not competitive so you can just do your best and learn for future performances,” Matheson says. NIFPA is also a great way for artists to connect with people who are doing the same thing as them and see their peers improvements year after year. A selection of performers will participate in showcases open to the public. Check the website, www.nifpa.org for more information.

Public input sought for Alder Street corridor review Be part of the process, get involved and provide input into the future of the Alder Street corridor. The City of Campbell River is reviewing opportunities to improve Alder Street – and public input is sought on how best to balance Alder Street’s role as one of the primary north-south routes with safe access to and from the many singlefamily homes along this 7.5 kilometre street. The city also wants residents’ opinions on sidewalk improvements, how to better accommodate bicycles and bus stop upgrades. The first opportunity for people to get involved will be at a public open house on Wednesday, March 12 between 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. at the Sportsplex. At the open house session, people will see examples of options that could be considered for this route, based on a consultant’s initial review of the project.

B ou le vard Traf f ic Group and City staff will be on hand to discuss options and gather public feedback as we work towards the next steps for this important transportation corridor.

The open house material will also reference the City’s 2012 Master Transportation Plan – a vision for the community’s multi-modal transportation system for the next 25 years.

People can also monitor the corridor review by visiting the City’s website for updates and additional opportunities to provide input – or by following the City’s Facebook Page. View the City

of Campbell River’s Master Transportation Plan online at www.campbellriver.ca under Roads and Transportation / Studies. The Alder Street corridor review is being completed by Boulevard

Transportation Group, an Island-based transportation consulting firm with experience undertaking similar corridor planning studies. Learn more at www. blvdgroup.ca.

with Robinson Wilson. Other workshops available included lighting, stage-managing, voice, character developing, and the wildly popular Broadway dancing with Carihi’s own Lisa Marie Thompson. In the evening, the students gathered at the Timberline Theatre to watch plays competing to show at provincials. This year, 13 plays were showcased over the course of three nights, ranging between student written, zombie themed, to classic theatrical portrayals, all varied in theatre styles. “It’s special to drama kids, because for three days they get to be with other people who understand their world and support them in the theatrical work they do,” Knight says. “In some schools ‘drama kids’ are marginalized, so Drama Fest is great for making everyone feel welcome, included and appreciated. “The magic and intensity of the North Island Regional Drama Fest is something difficult to describe without using the words “immense support, appreciation, and love.”
