Williams Lake recognizes National Day of Mourning Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The mother of a 27-year-old Oliver man who died on the job in 2013 put a name and face to the statistics during the Day of Mourning ceremony in Williams Lake Monday. Standing at the podium outside of city hall, Brenda Armstrong held up a memorial card depicting her son Sheldon Skolos’ photograph. “In 2013, he was one of the ones that didn’t come home,” she faltered. “He is my oldest son. He had two sons, they were eight
and four, and he should have come home that day.” After his death, BC Coroners Service confirmed Sheldon died at a construction site in Oliver. He was assisting a forklift operator in transporting construction materials when he was struck by a load of oriented strand boards. “He worked beside his friend who was part of that accident and lives with that every day,” Armstrong said. Of the 128 workrelated deaths in B.C. in 2013, her son’s was one of them, and it affected everything that
Armstrong has three sons and said she never gave a lot of thought to work safety until her oldest son Sheldon’s death, but now feels strongly that workrelated deaths must be prevented. United Steelworkers Local 1-425 vice-president Dean Colville said he hopes in his lifetime he will be able stand up at the podium and celebrate that no one died at work. “It’s pretty clear, whether we are government officials, companies, workers, we all share a common goal,” Colville said.

People their children and their cent, she said. should come home spouses.”
Labour Council president Linda Rowley said it’s a sad occasion each year to recognize enough hasn’t been done to prevent workplace injuries. There are real people behind those statistics and very few prosecutions against companies, she continued. “More people die at work than while fighting wars,” Salvation Army Capt. Ben Lippers said before offering a prayer. “This day gives us the opportunity to say thank you to all those people who have made a sacrifice so we can enjoy a high standard of living.”
Government supports Internet access in rural communities Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Rural and remote access to the Internet in B.C. has received a boost in the arm. On Thursday, the provincial government announced a $2 million investment to help rural and remote residents afford satellite Internet technology. Customers can receive assistance for installation costs to the tune of 50 per cent or up to $250. It can cost $500 because technicians have to travel so far in some cases. Government partnered with Xplornet Communications Inc. and local installers to
provide the subsidy to people who live where satellite Internet technology is the only option. “Getting high speed Internet into remote areas has always been very challenging,” said Thomas Koeth, one of the owners of Can Com Electronics Ltd. in Williams Lake. “We are excited the government is considering satellite technology as a viable option to deliver high speed service into rural areas.” Koeth said this is the first investment of its kind made by government, but a needed one due to the challenges of servicing a province with so many forests and mountains.

“It makes it more affordable for us to get into the really remote areas,” Koeth said, noting residents in places like Bella Coola and Nemiah Valley will certainly benefit from the subsidy. Minister of Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services Andrew Wilkinson said government is making the investment because the Internet has become a necessity for 21st century life. “Getting all British Columbians online will help expand economic opportunities, connect families and help bring the world to every corner of the province.” The program will help with the adoption of

STOP THE PRESSES:
Black Press to upgrade printing press Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Black Press in Williams Lake is becoming more colourful after a modernization of the printing press will increase its capability to print more colour pages. Previously the press could print 12 colour pages per section. It will now be able to print 16. The upgrade involves the installation of four GOSS community units. Two of the units, which are each stacked two high, were installed last Friday. The other two will go in this Friday, said press foreman Mark Lees. “They have come
new-to-us from Hawaii where Black Press also owns a paper,” Lees said of the replacement units. Built in 1978, the original press in Williams Lake was the first one owned by Black Press chairman David Black. Lees has worked at the press in Williams Lake for 29 and a half years and said he owes all of his professional success to former pressman “old” John Dolenuck. “I worked with John for 20 years,” Lees said. “He used to run the original press when it was over where advertising is located now in our building.” Today Black Press owns presses in
Cranbrook, Vernon, Williams Lake, Penticton, Goldstream, Ladysmith, Burnaby and Abbotsford. In Williams Lake, the press churns out 18 weekly publications for communities from Ashcroft north to Prince George, and west to Prince Rupert, as well as numerous special supplements and publications. The modernization won’t make things easier or quicker, but will add more to it, pressman Jamie Anderson explained. Until the work is completed this weekend, the Williams Lake Tribune and Weekend Advisor’s sections can be no more than 24 pages, Anderson said.

Black Press pressman Calvin Paul (left), press foreman Mark Lees and pressman Jamie Anderson say goodbye to pieces of Black Press’s circa 1960s printing press as they modernize the presses over the next two weeks. The upgrade will mean more colour options for the 18 community newspapers that have their papers printed at the press in Williams Lake.
Break and enters keep Williams Lake RCMP busy Break and enters were among the 65 calls for service Williams Lake RCMP responded to during the weekend. In its weekend report, the RCMP singled out some of the files. Saturday, April 26 At 1:15 a.m. police responded to a report from Downtown Towing of an alarm going off at its 750 Mackenzie Avenue South location. Police attended and determined a break and enter had occurred. Property representative from Downtown Towing attended and informed members the cash register with an undisclosed amount
of money was missing. Nothing else appeared to be gone. The matter is still under investigation. Sunday, April 27 • The RCMP received a complaint from the owner of a residence on Cameron Street at 10:40 a.m. that as he entered the residence, he interrupted a male trying to kick in the door on his balcony during an attempted break-in. The property resident provided a clear description of the male and approximately five minutes later a male was taken into custody matching the description given. The matter
is still under investigation. • At 9:45 a.m. police received a report from OK Tire located at 25 Borland Street that someone attempted to break into the business. The owner was alerted by the alarm company and police attended. Upon police arrival at the scene a rock was seen on the ground in front of the door and pieces of glass everywhere. The second layer of window had not broken but had been pushed in. The intruder did not manage to gain access to the business. • Three men were arrested Sunday evening
after a break and enter at Mountview Store on Dog Creek Road. At 10:30 p.m. all available police units were dispatched to a complaint of a break and enter in progress at the store. Upon police arrival, the business representative told police a male had broken the window to the store and grabbed something that was later determined to be beer. The male then got into a vehicle with two other males and was sitting in the parking lot. As police approached, the vehicle left the store property. Police located and
stopped the vehicle on Dog Creek Road and the three occupants of
the vehicle were arrested for break and enter. All three were heavily
intoxicated and taken into custody. Charges are pending.
Trial dates set Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Trial dates have been set for an Alberta man charged in relation to the death of Kyle Vigeant on June 24, 2013. Kurtis James Roby is charged with criminal negligence causing death, two charges of criminal negligence causing bodily harm, failing to stop at the scene of an accident involving bodily harm and willfully resisting or obstructing a peace officer.
The incident occurred on the Chimney Lake Road near Brunson Lake. On Monday, Supreme Court Justice Shelley Fitzpatrick set aside 10 days for the trial beginning on Oct. 20 at 10 a.m. in Williams Lake Supreme Court. Roby has selected trial by judge alone. A pre-trial conference has also been scheduled for Aug. 19 at 9 a.m. Roby remains in custody and Crown Counsel requested he be remanded until the court date.

Associations file for participation in mine judicial review Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Four mining associations have filed for intervener status in Taseko Mine Ltd.’s judicial review against the federal government’s review process for the New Prosperity Mine. On April 16, the Mining Association of Canada (MAC), Mining Association of British Columbia (MABC), Mining Suppliers Association of British Columbia
(MSABC) and Association of Mineral Exploration British Columbia (AMEBC) filed an affidavit making the request. “Of concern to prospectors, mineral explorers, developers and investors, and one of the key issues before the court is that federal regulators appear to have not considered or analyzed all the facts and science regarding the tailings facility design,” stated Gavin Dirom, president and CEO,

AMEBC, in his association’s affidavit. Taseko’s vice-president of corporate affairs Brian Battison said the action of the mining associations speaks to the “magnitude” of the concern people have for the way the environmental assessment process was managed. “Our position is that it was flawed and the findings were based on that process were wrong,” he said. “It’s big news in the world of mining.”
Chief Joe Alphonse, Tsilhqot’in Tribal Chair, is one of the respondents in the judicial review, along with the Minister of Environment, the Attorney General of Canada, and the Tsilhqot’in National Government. Alphonse said he is confident in their position and what the outcome will be for the court cases. “We’ll come out with another victory regardless of how many interest groups are out there,” he said.

Williams Lake City Page REMINDER TO RESIDENTS Sam Ketcham Pool Referendum Question of the Week
Sprinkling regulations in the City of Williams Lake are in effect from April 1 to September 30.
Can the current main pool tank just be repaired rather than replaced? The main pool tank has structural damage in several key areas including the expansion joints and underground piping. There is a high risk that it will fail completely. The main pool tank was closed for seven weeks in 2011 due to an underground pipe bursting, and expansion joint leakage resulting in huge water loss beneath the main tank. During the repairs, structural damage was confirmed by engineers. A temporary repair was put in place until the tank could be replaced and it is not expected this repair will last much longer, nor can a similar temporary repair be done again. The tank is still leaking a significant amount of water each day, a situation that cannot continue indefinitely.
ARE YOU ON THE LIST OF ELECTORS? Have you wondered if you are on the list of electors to be eligible to vote in the City of Williams Lake municipal elections to be held November 15, 2014?

Properties that have automatic sprinkler systems can water grass between 12 and 4 a.m. The regulations are to ensure there is enough water supply during peak daytime hours, and non-compliance can carry a $100 fine. The City’s bylaw enforcement department will enforce the regulations.

Free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad. - Albert Camus
Give citizens say An evening snack in B.C.’s future
Come celebrate Williams Lake’s birthday
S
hould the public be consulted when governments are planning contentious changes in legislation? And if so, should the governments heed the public’s opinions? The federal government’s “Fair Elections Act” triggered public outrage as it is seen as anything but fair. The provincial government’s plans to monkey with land use by “updating” the Agricultural Land Reserve and changing the management of forest tenures have alarmed both political friends and foes. Critics of the Election Act see it as a plan to tip the scales in favour of the Conservative party. B.C.’s proposals would make drastic changes to the land. The feds may be listening to the critics. As for the province, who knows? The BC Agriculture Council (representing French 14,000 farmers) is Connection among the critics Diana French of Bill 24 (ALR changes). After listening to this group, Norm Letnick, B.C.’s brand new agriculture minister, says he is open to input and would consider a rewrite. However, B.C.’s Core Review Minister Bill Bennett, who crafted the bill, indicated it will pass as is during the current legislative session. It will be interesting to see who prevails. Jim Snetsinger, B.C.’s former chief forester, is leading the brief consultation process on forest tenure. There are no public sessions planned, he’ll meet with designated people here tomorrow. While most agree there are many issues to deal with in the aftermath of the mountain pine beetle epidemic, environmentalists, retired professional foresters, ordinary people and even Don Kayne, CEO of the giant Canfor Corporation, are questioning both the province’s planned solution and the limited consultation process. The Fair Elections Act has huge implications for the integrity of our electoral system, but a new government could reverse it. The province’s plans for farmland and forests are a different matter. The impacts will last a long, long time. Wouldn’t it be fair (wise?) to allow citizens to have some say in planning the province’s future? Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

Springtime means warmer weather, green grass and an abundance of wildife, like these deer grazing on some grass within the city limits Monday evening. The government is reminding residents not to interfere with newly born wildlife.
Our Viewpoint
Keep wildlife wild Springtime has got to be one of the nicest times of the year. The weather is getting warmer (hopefully), the lakes are almost all free of ice and animals seem to be particularly carefree and willing to show themselves after the long, hard winter we have had. Along with all the usual signs of spring, newborn wild animals have got to be one of most special things to witness this time of year, and the government is reminding everyone to resist the urge to “help out” newborn wildlife. Every year people find newborns alone and often mistakenly believe they have been abandoned, but usually they have only been left there temporarily by their mother, who will usually return. Intervening in these situations by attempting to “rescue” the fawn or calf is rarely necessary, according to the government, and will usually do more harm than good. In fact, in most cases if a newborn wild animal is touched or moved it will likely be orphaned. According to the provincial biologist, it is normal for mother deer, elk and oth-
er ungulates to leave their young alone for long periods, returning a few times a day to nurse. They also rely on the newborn’s lack of scent to protect them from predators. Returning mothers that find humans or pets nearby may leave or can become aggressive to defend their offspring from the perceived threat. The mother will return if the young is left alone. If you find a fawn or calf that you think may be orphaned, you should leave the area, keep children and pets away from the area and do not touch or attempt to feed the animal. If you think the fawn or calf is not being cared for by its mother, return the next day to check. If it is in the exact same spot, it may be injured or orphaned. Contact the conservation officer service as soon as possible, but do not touch or move the animal. Unfortunately in our area, there is no wildlife rehabilitation facility.

n May 3, the whole community will come together to celebrate 85 wonderful years of our beautiful city! I am a proud resident of the Cariboo-Chilcotin and Williams Lake is truly the centre of our great region. We are a vibrant community. With the world famous Williams Lake Stampede, the Indoor Rodeo, the Harvest Fair, an emerging arts and cultural scene and great economic opportunity on the horizon in mining and LNG developments in northern B.C., Williams Lake is truly one of the best places to be in British Columbia. Community events are already planned with the fun starting bright MLA and early at 8:30 a.m. at Boitanio Musings Park for a panDonna Barnett cake breakfast which goes until 10:30 a.m., then family games and activities until 1:30 p.m. The Cariboo Memorial Complex will have a lunch starting at 1:30 p.m. with a dinner starting at 5:00 p.m. hosted by our local Rotary Club, at 7:00 p.m. with a birthday cake cutting and finally capping off the celebration with a family dance from 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. This is a great opportunity for everyone to show off our Williams Lake pride with our neighbours, family and friends. I will be attending the community supper on Saturday night to listen to the incredible stories of some great Williams Lake residents past and present. In these celebrations, let us not forget that we are very fortunate to live in such a great community with an extraordinary small-town spirit. It is an honour to represent Williams Lake. Everyone in Williams Lake is proud of our heritage and of our great future ahead. I am looking forward to continue to work with everyone in our community to build an ever stronger and vibrant Williams Lake for many decades to come. Happy Birthday Williams Lake! I hope the next 85 years are just as spectacular. Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

MORE VIEWPOINTS We are lucky to be working Question of the week Editor: B.C. teachers federation says there are more than 41,000 school teachers in the federation. Strike vote results from March 6 show that only 29,301 teachers voted with 26,051 voting yes for strike action. This leaves 14,949 teachers or 36.46 per cent, that seem to be happy with the way things are.
The way things are is that the average teacher wage in B.C. is $89,000 per year ($70,624 in wages, $18,000 in benefits), two weeks off at Christmas, two week spring break, lieu days, a pension plan that the B.C. taxpayers pay 16.13 per cent of salary into plan, having the months of July and August off, and a taxpayer funded benefits plan. With the Alberta teachers federation recent four-year con-
tract of zero per cent increase in the first three years, and a two per cent pay raise in the fourth year with a cash bonus, and with the announcement March 7, 2014, that Staples will be closing 225 stores, these 14,949 are saying, things are great the way they are. We are lucky to be working. Joe Sawchuk Duncan, B.C.
Canadian laws should extend to the unborn Editor: Alan Trenzek’s letter (April 9) hit the nail on the head. In the 1800s anti-slavery groups were often vilified, mocked, and hated by those who made money owning slaves. Prolife people today are often similarly demonized, and culturally silenced. Just as the laws in 1850 failed to regard slaves as “persons,” the law today in Canada fails to accept the personhood of the child in the womb. With ultrasound and DNA science there is now no excuse for The family of Gerry Lucas would like to thank all those friends and relations who supported us and help us to make it through the first few weeks after Gerry’s passing.

ignorance about the full humanity of the innocent unborn child. Yet Canadian law stands in flagrant violation of the “Universal Declaration of the Rights of the Child” which clearly states in its preamble that: “Whereas the child, by reason of his physical and mental immaturity, needs special safeguards and care, including appropriate legal protection, before as well as after birth. Today there is no legal protection whatsoever for unborn children in Canada — even until the time of birth. Future civilizations will look back on us someday with the
same horror that we now regard 19th century slave owners. With shocked bewilderment they will ask: How, even after we knew the truth, could we have remained so indifferent? How could we have been so silent in the face of such violence against precious innocent lives? How could we have callously denied the most vulnerable among us the very right to life?

WL preparing for youth week Carla Bullinger Special to Tribune/Advisor With the first week of May fast approaching, youth all over B.C. are gearing up for Youth Week events — and this year youth in Williams Lake are gearing up as well. Youth Week is a provincial celebration of youth held annually during the first week of May. It is a week of fun, interaction, and celebration intended to build a strong connection between young people and their communities and to profile the issues, accomplishments, and diversity of youth across the province. It’s an opportunity to recognize the positive contributions youth make in their communities, and to celebrate the valuable work youth do all year round. 2014 marks the first time our city is celebrating this event. Wednesday, April 30, from 11 a.m. until noon is the Volunteer Fair in the commons at the LCSS Williams Lake Campus. Youth Week is being launched by a Volunteer Fair organized by Junior Council. The fair provides an opportunity for local service
providers in need of volunteers to connect with youth. It’s also a great forum in which to ask questions and talk about issues and interests. “We wanted to create an event that gives students an opportunity to volunteer in the community as students need volunteer hours in order to graduate. There are also lots of personal benefits when you volunteer,” said junior council member Brooklyn Thiessen. “You feel good about your contributions, you build new skills, meet interesting people, and you help organizations that are doing such great work in our community.” On Thursday, May 1 at 5 p.m. the Opening Reception, “The Creative Path,” will be hosted at the Station House Gallery. Youth in the “Making Connections” program of School District 27 are showcasing their art work at the Station House Gallery during the month of May and we have a chance to meet some of the artists at the May 1 opening reception of their Creative Path exhibit. The exhibit should be amazing, said Ciel
Patenaude, facilitator of the Making Connections program. “Our philosophy is that children who know themselves to be powerfully creative, imaginative and artistic beings will not only enjoy their childhood more, but they will grow up to be powerfully creative, confident and expressive adults, capable of making decisions reflective not of insecurity or doubt, but in alignment with a deep appreciation of their unique gifts and capacities,” Patenaude said. On Monday, May 5 there will be a Barbecue and Scavenger Hunt from 3:30 to 8:00 p.m. at the Boys and Girls Club. Join youth at the Boys and Girls Club for a fun filled scavenger hunt starting at 3:30 p.m. followed by a barbecue. This event is open to youth 13-18. “We hope to have lots of youth come down to the centre to enjoy the fun, food and prizes,” said Carly Lucchetta with the Boys and Girls Club of Williams Lake and District. Wednesday, May 7 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. a concert in the Lake City secondary Williams Lake Campus
takes place. An evening of uncensored musical performances by Youth in a relaxed coffee house environment. This is a free event for youth to showcase their talent for their friends and family. There will be lots of great door prizes and free refreshments. “We are excited to be collaborating with Youth for Christ-Youth Unlimited and WorkSafeBC to make this event happen,” said the Boys and Girls Club of Williams Lake and District’s Linda Bingham. Also, a resource display for youth and their parents is lined up at the Williams Lake Library. What are the hot new titles in youth fiction? Is there a how-to book for raising my teenager? If these questions spark your interest, head on down to the Cariboo Regional District Library, Williams Lake Branch. Not a bad line up of activities for our first annual Williams Lake BC Youth Week celebrations. Come on out and support our youth. We’ve started something great to build on. Enjoy! Carla Bullinger is a facilitator with Communities that Care in Williams Lake.

Boitanio Park has rich history Museum of the Cariboo Chilcotin Special to Tribune/Advisor Boitanio Park was a triumph of Williams Lake’s citizens who wanted to maintain and insure the wishes of Roderick Mackenzie were followed. Originally, Boitanio Park was the site of a Shuswap village, probably one that was used in the winter months because there are the ruins of pit houses. After the First Nations left the area it was used as a pasture before the PGE bought the land. Roderick Mackenzie bought much of the land where the park now sits in the early 1920s. It was purchased from the PGE as a gift to the newlyformed village of Williams Lake. Mackenzie gave the land to the village with the stipulation that it was to be used as a golf course, but if and when the time came that it was no longer used for the purpose that it was to become a park. It was the Williams Lake Golf Course for nearly three decades. After the golf course was developed on the other side of town the old course was just abandoned. In 1967, Premier W.A.C. Bennett was presented with a pe-
tition that had been circulated around town by the Old Age Pensioners Association (OAPO) with the request that the golf course land be declared a park and control of it given over to the people of Williams Lake. He gave the 55 acres, which the parkland had grown into at a meeting later that day. After two years with no changes to the park made by town council, a group of people came together in an effort to
improve the area as a Centennial Project. Council accepted the idea so local efforts for fundraising and improvements began. At this time it was also determined that the park did not yet have a name. A name the park contest was organized during Stampede. Boitanio was chosen for Antoine Boitanio, the oldest calf roper and a resident of Williams Lake since 1928. The park now had a name and the work was coming along
very well. There was the development of a small stream and bridge as well as the construction of the Gwen Pharis Ringwood Memorial Amphitheatre. By the late 1970s all the work done for the Centennial had fallen into disrepair and the park was no longer the gorgeous piece of parkland it once was. Chunks of the property had been sold off throughout the years, Boitanio Mall taking a large section, as well as Kiwanis Park, provincial buildings and the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. In 1974, officials from the provincial archaeology department and three members of the Sugar Cane Band excavated at the site where Boitanio Mall was being built, looking for what appeared to be pit houses. The provincial archaeologists became interested in the site
when bones were discovered during excavation of the site by developers. By the time the department was notified of the find the bones had been disposed of and the site destroyed. Since the 1980s great efforts have been taken in the city to improve the park. The Gwen Ringwood Memorial Amphitheatre was torn down and reconstructed and the Parks people have been making strides in improving the park’s overall appeal. Communities in Bloom has two gardens recognizing sister cities adding to the variety of flowers found in the park. Concerts in the park has also done a great deal to bring people into the park. The Museum of the Cariboo Chilcotin supplies this history of Williams Lake as part of the city’s 85th anniversary year. A celebration is planned for May 3.

Sense and Sensibility on stage Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer In this time of war and strife around the world it is nice to reflect on simpler times when the only thing a lady had to worry about was who they were going to marry. Jane Austen’s classic Sense and Sensibility, on stage at the Studio Theatre starting this week, offers a lovely escape from modern day woes. The unique and simple set design by Curt Sprickerhoff makes it perfect for travelling if the play is chosen for the provincial festival when the zone festival is held here later this spring. And the costumes are of a most authentic style, all designed by Christa Obergfell. As the scenes change, drawings from Austen’s book appear in the large ornate picture frame on the wall. Periodically the pages of a large book in the background are turned by one of the servants showing images depicting stages of the story. The title of the cloth covered front cover of the book says simply “By a Lady.” “It is all Jane Austen would allow until her brother convinced her to take credit for the book,” says director Becky Strickland, who expressed her gratitude for the backstage crew for their work on the production during Monday’s dress re-

Sense and Sensibility is lively and dynamic adaptation of Jane Austen’s story about the Dashwood sisters Elinor, played by Kathleen Macdonald, and Marianne, played by Jennifer McPhee, who find themselves captivated by two very different men. Sensible Elinor is charmed by the quiet, bumbling goodness
of Edward Ferrars, played by Colin Sanford, while passionate Marianne, played by Jennifer McPhee is swept off of her feet by the dashing and mysterious Willoughby, played by Scott Smithson.
But when Willoughby’s scandalous past and Edward’s secret fiancee come to light, the sisters are forced to rely upon themselves and one another to weather their heartache — and learn that when sense and sensi-

From the opening performance by the AngelKeys Children’s Choir singing Trinidad and Tobago to the final performance by Naomi Lomavatu on piano playing Arabesque No. 1 by Debussy the Cariboo Festival’s Honours Performance Saturday evening was solid gold. Gold in that all of the performers were each awarded gold standing (85 per cent or higher) by their respective adjudicators, and gold in that the evening showcased such a wide variety of lakecity talent. Pianist Warran Penner had the audience spellbound as he played Prelude Opus 32/5 by Rachmaninoff. The speech arts group enthralled the crowd with their animated presentations — Alexandro Mario Brinoni reciting Jabberwocky; Annalis Carter-Arias reciting Dying Maybe; Cadence Halfnights and Allison McKinnon reciting Cinderella; Emily Swan reciting Jonathan’s Farm; and Selina Farkas reciting Soccer Girl, a poem which she wrote herself. There were two sets of intriguing guitar duos this year by Adam Sytsma and Lucas Nowotny playing Beagle Mania and Shannon and Syrus Mohammed playing Arkansas Traveller. All in all the evening showcased the talents of more than 30 individuals, choirs, singers, musical theatre performers, pianists, and

Bev Sellars wins George Ryga literary award Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer
Monica Lamb-Yorski photo
Xatsul Chief Bev Sellars won the 2014 George Ryga Award for Social Awareness in Literature for her book They Called Me Number One: Secrets and Survival at an Indian Residential School.
Xatsull (Soda Creek) Chief Bev Sellars has won the 2014 George Ryga Award for Social Awareness in Literature. Sellars says she was honoured to be presented with the award during a ceremony at Okanagan College in Kelowna April 3. “At the award ceremony I met George Ryga’s sister and one of his oldest friends,” Sellars said. “His friend told me that if George were alive today he would be so honoured that I
had won the award.” Sellars received the George Ryga Award for her book They Called Me Number One: Secrets and Survival at an Indian Residential School that was released last spring, by Talon Books. In the book, Sellars shares her own story and the stories of many other people who attended the St. Joseph Mission School south of Williams Lake. The George Ryga Award is given each year to a British Columbia writer who has achieved an outstanding degree of social awareness owing to a
new book published in the preceding calendar year. Books chosen for the shortlist are outstanding works of both literary and social value that open up discussion about social and cultural issues. They Called Me Number One: Secrets and Survial at an Indian Residential School has also been short-listed for the BC Book Prize 2014 Hubert Evans Non-Fiction Award. This award ceremony takes place May 3. Sellars will be unable to attend so her husband Bill Wilson is going to go in her place.

Members of the Lake City Falcons girls rugby team celebrate their provincial Bowl Final win — a ninth-place result in the 16-team tournament, hosted in Vancouver at the University of British Columbia April 24-25.
Falcons win Bowl Final at provincials Carleigh Walters Special to Tribune/Advisor In their first season as a combined high school, the Lake City Falcons girls rugby team proudly held the BC Rugby High School Girls Provincial Sevens Bowl Final trophy high on Saturday. Lake City downed Saanich’s Stelly’s Secondary School Queen Bees 22-7 in the online livestreamed bowl final, signalling a ninth-place finish following two days of intense competition April 24-25 at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. After finishing day one of the tournament with one win and two losses the Falcons were placed into the third tier. Following the round robin the ninth place result in the 16-team tournament was the best
the lakecity squad could achieve. The weekend started out with the Falcons meeting the fifthranked team in the province, Vanier. Williams Lake’s Laura Pfleiderer took the scrumhalf position scoring the first of two tries. Sherdian Davis added a try of her own, however, the Falcons fell 1712 in a hard-fought, close game. Next, Lake City took on the No. 1 seed, Bateman. After tries from Natasha Johnson and Skye Forcier, and a conversion from Laura, Bateman squeaked out a win. Lake City then shellacked the No. 13 seed McMath, 36-0, in their final round robin seeding game. Laura scored three times and made three kicks, while Laurel White, Carleigh Walters and Morgan Grey added supplemen-
tary scoring. Day two of the tournament saw the Falcons march away with a 22-0 win over Elgin Park. Forcier scored twice in the first half, while Johnson scored once. Anna Bracewell added a try in the second half, while Laura nailed a conversion. Next, Lake City continued to roll, claiming another 22-0 victory — this time over North Vancouver to place them in the Bowl Final. Scoring in the winning effort were Emma Pfleiderer, Bracewell, Johnson and Davis. In the Bowl Final — with Grade 12s Davis, Anne Butters and Guilanna Durfeld playing in their final sevens game for Lake City — the Falcons didn’t disappoint. After falling behind 7-0 in the first half Lake City, after a quick line change, battled back with
Walters, Emma and Bracewell scoring tries and Davis adding a conversion in the 22-7 Bowl Final win. The team, coached by Morley Wilson and assisted by Erica Pfleiderer, were led by co-captains Davis and Butters throughout the tournament. Players on the team ranged from grades 10-12 and, overall, the weekend was very successful. Every player and especially the coach Wilson put copious amounts of effort into the team and its accomplishments. It was the first trophy won by the new combined Lake City Secondary School, and it will be proudly displayed in our halls. Carleigh Walters is a team member of the Lake City Falcons girls rugby team.

With a hatchback design, this car has always been a more practical design than sedans like the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. With superb road manners, advanced engines and German engineering, the starting price looks like a winner. A big reason for this is the Golf is assembled in Mexico and these cars come into Canada without duty, (Thanks NAFTA) so VW added more content and kept the price low. The good news for diesel lovers is that the TDI engine will be available right out of the gate and now represents about 50 percent of Golf sales. This engine too has been modified to make it as fuel efficient as possible.

Import manufacturers provide the most sizzle in New York By Keith Morgan
NEW YORK – There was more sizzle in my New York steak dinner than on the show floor at the Big Apple’s international auto show. It seems the Big Four shot their lightning bolts at the preceding Detroit and Los Angeles auto extravaganzas and left it to the import manufacturers to dazzle here. Nissan did not disappoint with the unveiling of a classy looking crossover in the shape of the all-wheel drive 2015 Nissan Murano. The mid-size model first showed up in 2002 and this new model marks the birth of the third-generation. The Nissan-named V-Motion nose and boomerang-shaped taillights ensure it makes an impression on the observer, coming and going, and distinguishes itself from its rivals. Inside, up to five passengers can expect more of a luxury ride than they might have enjoyed in the outgoing version – heated and cooled front seats will impress those upfront. The trend in this segment to include huge sunroofs continues here. Under the hood, Nissan stays with the trusty 3.5-litre six-cylinder powerplant matched to a continuously variable transmission. Expect to see the Murano in the showrooms at the tail end of the year. Before moving on, the Nissan Sport Sedan Concept should be mentioned as it offers a clue to what the new Maxima might resemble. And boy, is it a looker despite the horrible orange
colour of the show car! It too features a panoramic roof stretching almost from the windshield to the rear window. A production model version is expected later in the year, which suggests the L.A. show might benefit from that timetable. Any new Toyota Camry is

an instant hit, especially in North America where it’s been the best selling car for 12 years. Despite that, the Japanese manufacturer launched an all-new 2015 model, just three years after introducing a redesign. It incorporates design touches now appearing in sibling models, including a deeper grille that more resembles an upmarket Lexus. Interior materials are upgraded and a large central display matches the design trend of its competitors. Two trims are added; a sporty XSE with some luxury touches and a Hybrid SE. Toyota sticks with its 2.5-litre, four-cylinder, and 3.5-litre, six-cylinder engines plus its Hybrid Synergy Drive.

Hyundai would like to put a serious dent in the Toyota Camry success story with its own mid-size sedan – the redesigned Sonata. It’s likely the introduction of a sharp looking Sonata in 2011 helped prompt Toyota into taking a serious look at upping the ante in the Camry. Other competitors have also risen to the challenge. Now the seventh-generation, newly styled, sharper looking 2015 Sonata raises the bar again with improved ride and handling plus advanced driver assistance and safety equipment. Unlike the Camry, the Sonata stays with purely four-cylinder engines. Standard is a 2.4-litre power plant and a turbocharged 2.0L four is an option. The one domestic manufacturer that did show up with something more exciting than the rest was Jeep, which introduced the compact Renegade. It is the iconic brand’s first foray into the small SUV segment. Its funky looks and fuel efficiency should make it an urban dweller hit but it also boasts best-in-class off-road capability, which may just bring in buyers from the growing outdoor adventure seekers. Two engine choices: a 2.4-litre Tigershark engine with MultiAir2 paired to the segment’s first nine-speed automatic transmission, or a 1.4-litre MultiAir Turbo engine with six-speed manual transmission. Prices for all of the above closer to launch when pencils have been sharpened and each figure out how

BULK FUEL Now Delivering to
Confessions of a Curber I surprised my family with a trip to Hawaii. They didn’t have a clue how I paid for it. But they thought I was the best dad in the world. While we were away, I bought a car on eBay. It had over 350,000 km on it. No one will want to buy this piece of junk, I thought. Unless. I could just lower the mileage on it a little bit. And it won’t hurt anybody, right? One problem – I had no idea how to change an odometer*. But as it turns out, it’s much easier than I’d expected. With an odometer tool, I changed the reading to 164,500 km. Still a lot, but less than half the real clicks. My ad: “Minivan – old but in great condition! Only 164,500kms - it sat in my garage for the last 5 years. Must sell. If you’re looking for an older, but reliable and safe vehicle, call my cell and we’ll negotiate.” Looking back, I realized I’d knocked almost 200,000 km off the vehicle. But I shined it up and put some newer used tires on it so they wouldn’t give away its true condition. Will this get me in trouble? I wondered. I wasn’t doing anything wrong, really – this just gives me a chance to make some more money on the vehicle. I got a phone call from a young single mom who could only afford an older vehicle. We decided to meet at her son’s school. As I was showing her the car, I noticed the carpet, the door handles and the pedals kind of gave away its true condition. Hopefully she’s too naïve to notice, I thought.
Forty minutes later, our exchange was complete. I probably made an extra $2,000 because of the odometer! If I’d only done this to all the other cars I sold! Suddenly, my mind began processing the implications. That minivan was pretty much at the end of its life. That young mom is expecting the vehicle to last her for a few more years. At best, I see it lasting one more. Parts will start failing, calling for expensive repairs. I’m certain she doesn’t have the money for that. All I’m hoping is that it doesn’t break down on the highway. Maybe there was a reason I never did it before. Maybe, just maybe, I had a conscience up until now.
*Odometer: The law allows an odometer to be replaced when broken, but the repair must be recorded and the true mileage needs to be disclosed. CarProof and ICBC vehicle history reports can reveal more about how far a vehicle has really traveled. Even AirCare, where available, can help. And Walt is wrong; altering an odometer is a crime.

Keeping you safe on two wheels By Alexandra Straub
Like education, the motorcycle gear you wear, whether on the road or trails, is vital to your safety. Don’t believe me? Just ask someone who, unfortunately, has had a spill. Here’s an example. A colleague of mine caught gravel around a bend while riding in the States. She hit the guardrail then passed out. She was then airlifted to hospital where she suffered a minor concussion, and a few bruises and scrapes. Even the doctors were amazed how good shape she was in. It was said to her that her gear likely saved her life. She was wearing leathers, gloves, protective boots, and a helmet. Granted, not everyone is as lucky, but you get my point. Furthermore, for those who have experienced an accident, and have been in proper attire, I’m pretty sure you weren’t thinking. “Gee, I really wish I wore my shorts and flip flops!” When I ride, I’m in full garb. Depending on what type of riding I’m taking on that day, I’ll dress appropriately. I’m an advocate of riding gear. All of it.
Helmet: The government in British Columbia only enforces one piece of safety equipment when riding on the road. That’s a helmet. If you’re not going to invest any money in anything else, protect your noggin’. I’m not suggesting buying the

most expensive and fanciest lid out there because most of us don’t have thousands of dollars for a carbon fibre helmet. In fact, I’ll add this too. Make sure it fits properly. Local motorcycle shops generally have trained staff in fitting helmets. They’re supposed to fit snugly. I’ve been told that even the cheapest helmet that fits perfectly will do more for you than an expensive one that’s just not right for you. You only have one head. Use it. And protect it.
Jackets: There are a couple of common materials used in jackets: leather and textile. There are more, but the two listed are quite prominent. Each have their own benefits. Textile jackets tend to be more breathable, while leather has been said to be better protection. You can argue each case. Some jackets come with armor (added protection in the back, elbows, and
shoulders.) Some don’t. I suggest armor only because it protects you that much more. However, there are accessories you can purchase if your jacket you choose doesn’t come with it built in.
Pants: Leather, textile and Kevlar jeans are common riding pants. Kevlar jeans are getting better and better as more research and development is conducted. I say, if you’re going for the “cool” look, spend a little more for the added protection.
Boots: Not everyone will want heavily reinforced boots. That’s fine. But if you’re going to ride, get leather footwear that at least covers your anklebone. Speaking of which, have you ever hit your anklebone on a table leg? Hurts, doesn’t it. Now imagine a 220-kilo machine falling on it. Think safety. What’s great about the industry now, is the availability to cool riding shoes that have reinforced heels and ankle protection. You can look good and be protected. Bonus.
Off-Road: If you’re an adventure-touring rider — or would like to be – textile is the way to go. This material is much better for the changing weather you’ll encounter on the road less travelled. It’s breathable and generally has a few layers. So you
can take off or put them on when needed. Dirt Biking: Just because you fall in dirt doesn’t mean it can’t hurt! Wearing elbow and kneepads are recommended. A lot of dirt riders will also add a chest protector/ breastplate, gloves, boots and goggles. Along with their helmet, of course. Accessories: If you want added piece of mind, that’s available, too.

There are a few styles of gloves. There are ones that cover just your hands/ fingers and ones called gauntlet gloves that cover past your wrists. Some gloves also have reinforced points with carbon fibre to prevent further damage. Like with a helmet, and the
