Saved by a good citizen Passerby in Sidney alerts police to seniors in need SIDNEY — A simple act of kindness last week by a passerby in Sidney proved to be life saving for one elderly Sidney couple. On Wednesday, March 12 just before midnight, Sidney North Saanich RCMP were contacted by a concerned citizen who had stopped to assist a senior whom appeared lost and confused on the street. The passerby remained with the elderly woman until police arrived and were able to figure out where she lived. Upon returning the senior (who suffers from dementia) to her residence in Sidney, members of the RCMP gained entry to her home with the assistance of the building manager and found the elderly woman’s husband laying on the floor in medical distress. The officers called an ambulance to the residence and both the man and the woman were transported to hospital for treatment. “This simple act of kindness by a citizen stopping to help someone in need unknowingly triggered a series of events averting a potentially fatal outcome,” said Constable Ryan George of the Sidney North Saanich RCMP. — News staff

Parkland lends a hand to fire hall

Devon MacKenzie News staff

A community effort is helping to put the finishing touches on the North Saanich Fire Hall. This past week, the hall got two new signs

for the building, both of which were products of the community rallying around the hall to finish it off. “After the project was complete we really didn’t have a budget left for doing all the little finishing touches like the signs outside,”

Film crews gracing the Peninsula Television series Gracepoint being filmed in Capital Regional District until end of May Devon MacKenzie

X-Men filmed at Hatley Castle in 2000. The town in the U.K. where Broadchurch was filmed has seen a huge peak in film tourism. People are going to the town just to see the filming locations. When a company like Gracepoint comes to the CRD it benefits all industries including future tourism and jobs and the more immediate things being used in the production like car rentals, restaurants, hotel, lumber yards and hardware stores. It’s really a trickle down effect when a production this size comes to town.” Gilbert said one challenge Victoria’s film industry has faced in the wake of Gracepoint coming to town has been employee numbers. “Since 2008 and the downturn in the economy, our crew base has been eroded,” she explained.

News staff

When it comes to choosing locations for filming, visual appeal is an important aspect, and Sidney and the Saanich Peninsula have just that, say producers of Gracepoint. “Greater Victoria and the Saanich Peninsula are incredibly beautiful and the natural landscape of the Island is incredibly visually appealing. We chose Vancouver Island because of the visual appeal,” said the show’s Executive Producer, Carolyn Bernstein, from her office in Los Angeles. Bernstein went on to say choosing the locations on the Peninsula like the Sidney waterfront were chosen based on where the show is set. “The locations are doubling for Northern California and Victoria and the Peninsula had the wild, rugged and beautiful look that felt really right for the production,” she said. Until the end of May, various locations in the Capital Regional District, including the Sidney waterfront, Brentwood Bay, Patricia Bay and Oak Bay, will play host to the filming of the show which is a North American remake of the U.K. crime series Broadchurch. “Broadchurch is, of course, the original series and our remake is taking the essence of the original show and Americanizing it. While we’re all familiar with the original series and love it, we want to make this series uniquely ours,” said Brenstien, adding the show has a completely different cast with the exception of David Tennant, who starred in the original. The show, which is filming ten episodes and is set to air on FOX later in 2014, also stars Nick Nolte (48 Hours, Warrior), Anna Gunn (Breaking Bad) and Jacki Weaver (Silver Linings Playbook), among others. “It’s a fast and furious process to film it and air it this year. Once it’s aired we will see how the show performs and if there will be a second season,” said Bernstien, adding that if there are additional seasons, the company hopes

Season one of the series is filming in and around the Saanich Peninsula and Greater Victoria until the end of May.

“This series will have probably the biggest impact on film tourism in the CRD since X-Men filmed at Hatley Castle in 2000.” – Kathleen Gilbert

to film in the same locations. Kathleen Gilbert, Film Commissioner from the Vancouver Island South Film and Media Commission said the project is an amazing boost for Victoria’s film industry. “Until they finish filming we can only estimate the numbers, but I would say we will see a minimum of $10 million in direct spending in the area from Gracepoint,” said Gilbert.

Prior to 2008, Gilbert said, Victoria’s film industry was bringing in anywhere from $15 to $20 million annually but after changes to film tax credits and global economic troubles, that number dropped to about $7 million. “Since 2008 it’s been stagnant at about $7 million but with Gracepoint that number has already been surpassed in one project. We’re expecting about $14 to $15

million total this year,” she said, adding that with the new changes to film tax credits she hopes to see those numbers only go up. Gilbert said filming a series like Gracepoint in the CRD opens doors for many industries. “I was so excited about this production when we landed it. This series will have probably the biggest impact on film tourism in the CRD since

“People move away, they find jobs in other industries, and to build that employee base again will take time. It didn’t erode overnight nor will it be rebuilt overnight.” According to Gilbert, 40 per cent of the Gracepoint crew is local and many others have been brought in elsewhere, including from Vancouver’s film industry. “Gracepoint is serving as a great training ground for local employees. The production is training a lot of crew so it’s really great for them to get the experience of working on a production of this scale.” Sidney Mayor Larry Cross, in a previous interview with the PNR, said he’s excited to see the activity in his community. “It’s a big production and it should bring some added economic activity to Sidney.” — With a file from Steven Heywood reporter@peninsula newsreview.com

I consoled myself by remembering that it is better to under-water rather than over-water. Actually, I’ve found that letting them get pretty thirsty encourages them to flower. I figure they feel they are about to die and want to leave some seeds behind to carry on their genes and flowering, of course, comes first.

Sign finishing touches added by the firefighters Fire hall fundraiser

The main fire hall sign hung by the front entrance of the building this week was created out of scrap wood and carved by Parkland Secondary School teachers and students. “We used it as a lesson and demonstration for the students and they got to see how the CNC (computerized numerical controlled) router worked and what the finished product looked like,” explained Parkland woodworking and marine repair teacher Tyler Caddell. The paint and finishing touches were put on by Wilton and the volunteer firefighters. “It’s really nice to be able to collaborate with the local schools on a project like this,” said Wilton.

Waterfront waiting game

aterfront property — the kind where the public is welcome and where the citizens happen to own it — is exceedingly rare in Sidney. So, when there’s a proposal to sell it, exchange it and redevelop it, people understandably get anxious and start asking questions. That’s what happened to Sidney town council when it entered into an agreement with Sidney Waterfront Partnership (SWP) to do just that at the Seaport East lands, north of the Pier Hotel and Beacon Park. And while the proposal has been kyboshed by the municipality in the wake of the discovery of contamination at the site, fears over what might happen to that property still linger. There are calls for it to remain public land — along with some sort of development there that enhances the area, rather than mixing in residential units that could give it an air of exclusivity. Some folks want a grand destination down there, something that will attract more people like the good old days when Mineral World was the focus on the waterfront there. The question is, who will build something like that? Municipalities aren’t generally in the business of going into business and is the local economy one that will support a public attraction? As the current leaseholder, SWP has to balance those demands with a fair economic return on investment. And in any case, anything that happens there will require the site to be cleaned up — and that may not happen until it’s redeveloped. The Town in all likelihood isn’t going to pay to remove everyone from the site, pay to have it cleaned up and then pay to move everyone back again. SWP, in the meantime, has at least 24 years on the lease in which to operate and may be in the best position to do something once the Town clarifies its position. There are questions hovering over Seaport East as Sidney finds itself back to square one. Residents will demand answers on the matter of making the site ready for redevelopment down the road but in this election year, they may have to wait a little longer.

One of the documents Krause unearthed is a 2008 plan entitled “Tar Sands Campaign Strategy 2.1” that has proven remarkably prophetic.

Canada is helping to fight TB O

ne of Canada’s finest foreign assistance achievements is TB Reach, a grassroots health organization dedicated to help those tuberculosis sufferers that other programs miss: those who are physically isolated and difficult to treat. There are an estimated three million of

these, with each untreated sufferer eventually infecting about 10 other people. Canada is the only major funder of TB Reach. Our federal government already does great work fighting this ancient scourge through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria. But TB Reach is Canada’s own gift to the world.

Currently, TB Reach is short about $200 million, spread over five years. I sincerely hope that on March 24, World TB Day, Canada pledges to complete funding of TB Reach and saves the lives of those last three million. Nathaniel Poole Victoria

Readers respond: Harping on Harper I’ll harp if I want to Re: Quit Harping, PNR letters, March 14. The writer says that “Canadians have to realize our PM does positive things, etc.” I for one don’t take kindly to being lectured and told “I have to realize.” Actually, I don’t have to realize anything about Mr. Harper. Like most other people, I can read, research and make up my own mind. And I don’t want to be told “to quit harping against Harper” (is that a pun?) — if I want to I will. Are we to do as the writer tells us or face heavy handed Putin-style retribution in the in the form of tear gas, baton charges or worse?

HMS Pinafore in traditional style Flexing vocal muscles in Sidney, Victoria shows Steven Heywood News staff

Actors in the Victoria Gilbert and Sullivan Society’s presentation of H.M.S. Pinafore will have to throw their voices.

This is, says choreographer HeatherElayne Day, the tradi-

Threats to Sidney retail subject of presentation SIDNEY — A local retail planning consultant, predicting tough times ahead for downtown Sidney once a series of major shopping centres are developed, makes a presentation to business owners Thursday night at the Mary Winspear Centre. Richard Talbot, president of Talbot Consultants International Inc., says there’s “a

virtual tsunami of competition” about to surround Sidney. The planned construction of Sandown Commons in North Saanich and Jesken Town Centre in Central Saanich — as well as new shopping areas in Tsawassen — will deliver four commercial sites whose square footage “will more than double the size of downtown Sidney,” Talbot stated.

Talbot has been communicating his concerns in this regard to Sidney Mayor Larry Cross. Cross has often quoted Talbot’s warnings at recent public events. Talbot was scheduled to present his concerns and statistics to Sidney town council Monday night, March 17, prior to Thursday’s presentation to the Saanich Peninsula Chamber of

Commerce. Talbot has called for extensive downtown revitalization as one way to position Sidney to attract new customers and visitors. The March 20 discussion by Talbot is open to the public and is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. at the Mary Winspear Centre. — Steven Heywood/News staff

Panthers advance to playoff finals Cougars

Nail-biting game seven win Saturday night in Comox sends locals to finals Devon MacKenzie News staff

It was a nail biting finish for the Peninsula Panthers as they wrapped up the second round playoff series against the Comox Valley Glacier Kings winning the series four games to three Saturday night. The Panthers were down 3-2 in the best of seven series against the Glacier Kings as of last Friday night but a spirited effort in front of a large home crowd gave them enough punch to beat the Kings 5-4. The Panthers clung to the one-goal lead for most Friday night’s game and with just over a minute left in regulation, the Glacier Kings pulled goaltender Michael Hails for an extra attacker. But, the Panthers held strong during the home game and forced the series to its full seven game run. “The two teams played a solid defensive game on Saturday,”

PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW - Wednesday, March 19, 2014

www.vicnews.com • A15

The BC Government is proposing to offload the province’s world-class recycling programs, run by local municipalities, to an association led by big multi-national corporations. The idea is that we’ll get a better, more efficient program that costs taxpayers less.

Currently, BC homeowners only pay, on average, $35 a year for curbside recycling. Under the proposed regime, you’ll pay more. Every time you bring home a pizza, buy toilet paper,

Unfortunately, what we’ll really end up with is anyone’s guess.

How much more? Well, nobody’s saying.

The association isn’t guaranteeing that we’ll get a better program, or even one as good as the current Blue Box program already in place. Since the association is led by big businesses outside of BC, many of whom are not even headquartered in Canada, one could presume that profits will come before environmental stewardship. They usually do. They also won’t guarantee that there won’t be any job cuts here in BC.

Here’s the only thing anyone does know: we already have a Blue Box program that works, is efficient, managed locally and puts the BC environment first. So why is the BC government flipping a coin, bringing in a questionable recycling program that some of our local elected officials are already calling a “scam?”

And how is this supposed to make things better for BC?

or pretty much anything else that comes in a package, businesses will be passing their increased costs on to you.

It’s time to contact Premier Clark and ask her.

What’s going on here?
