Bella Coola Elementary Kindergarten students visit Snootli Hatchery on a field trip. Extra curricular activities such as field trips have been under scrutiny during the recent job action by BC teachers.

Rotating strikes continue to affect schools across the province BY CAITLIN THOMPSON Local schools shut down for the day on May 26 in recognition of the job action brought forth by BC Teachers in their latest dispute with the BC Government. Teachers have been without a contract since June 2013, and despite ongoing negotiations since last April 2013, there have been little results. While many people may be getting tired of the situation, it’s nothing new. The government and the BCTF have been at odds for years, and it doesn’t look as though either side is willing to

budge. They are miles apart on critical points such as bargaining rights, class sizes, and benefits, and the teachers haven’t had a negotiated contract in 10 years. The government has cut teachers’ salaries by ten percent because of the job action, saying that if that they are doing less work, they get less pay. But this has left several areas in a state of confusion. Local President of the Central Coast Teacher’s Association, Marc Hedges, says that the clawback has created confusion for teacher’s trying to do their jobs. At present, teachers are in a ‘lock out’ situation,

whereby they are not allowed to work during non-instructional hours (such as recess) with the exception of 45 minutes before and after school hours. This is the time when most teachers do their assessments and other duties, such as report cards. “The British Columbia Public School Employers’ Association directed the union that teachers are under partial lock out to justify this 10 percent reduction in salary,” said Hedges. “This means that if we perform any duties during these lockout hours, such as recess, we may not be covered by WCB and may face possible discipline. So, if a teacher gets injured on the job

while helping a child during these time periods, they may not have WorkSafe BC coverage.” However, it is far from black and white. “There has never been a partial lockout situation like this in the history of BC labour,” said Hedges. “The district hasn’t given us any direction on what we can and can’t do to justify this salary deduction of ten percent. Are field trips covered during lock out hours? Are extracurricular activities covered? It’s simply unclear at this time.” The government has stated that this isn’t the case, but the BCTF remains cautious. Meanwhile, contract negotia-

tions continue behind closed doors. Key issues include wages and class size and composition. British Columbia Teachers’ Federation president Jim Iker said there won’t be a deal unless the government is prepared to put appropriate class size limits, class size composition guarantees and guaranteed staffing levels for specialist teachers into the contract. At present, Kindergarten is capped at 22 students and Grade’s one to three are capped at 24 students. Grades four and above are more flexible, as individual districts have more control over the composition. SEE CLOSED ON PAGE 3

Central Coast schools closed Friday, June 6 FROM PAGE 1 As far as wages are concerned, teachers are asking for a 13.7 per cent increase over four years. Government is offering 7.25 per cent over six years plus a signing bonus, however even the $1200 bonus failed to convince the teachers to take the deal. “Wages simply haven’t increased in comparison to the

cost of living,” said Hedges. “There is an approximately seven percent gap between the present cost of living and teachers pay, and we are some of the lowest paid teachers in the country.” Speaking to parent advisory councils last week, BC Education Minister Peter Fassbender agreed that teachers deserve a raise. However, he articulated this point

by saying that teachers’ wage demands have to be balanced against other demands on the taxpayer dollar. “I stand before you believing that teachers deserve a raise, teachers deserve stability,” he said, to applause from the assembled parents. “But you know what? Communities deserve that as well, and the government has a

responsibility to taxpayers and finding that balance between all of those things.” Fassbender also said the government has already made concessions in its contract negotiations with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and it was not anxious to introduce legislation to end the longrunning dispute. Many people are placing the blame for

the dispute directly in the shoulders of Christy Clark. In January of this year, the B.C. Supreme Court justice ordered that the government retroactively restore class size and composition language that was removed from teachers’ contracts in 2002, and pay the B.C. Teachers Federation $2 million in damages. The government is appealing the ruling, arguing that implementing smaller class sizes could cost as much as one billion dollars. The rotating strike schedule is now entering its second week. Schools on the Central Coast are closed on Friday, June 6.

Linguist working to help revitalize Nuxalk language BY CAITLIN THOMPSON It is something that most find hard to believe, but at one time or another, linguist Dale McCreery has been fluent in 14 dialects. Growing up in Hazelton, B.C., it was his grandmother that first recognized his keen interest in languages. “My grandfather spoke Cree when he was young,” says McCreery, who is Métis. “But it was my grandmother who gave me my first Cree textbook and I started learning the language.” Cree didn’t end up being the first language McCreery learned, however, it was Russian. Now 31 years old, McCreery spent a year teaching English in Moscow when he was 19. “It was an experience I will never regret,” he explains. “I loved it so much I went back for another year, and that’s when I became

really fluent in the language.” Russian, McCreery said, is a difficult language to learn. “There is a lot to learn before you can begin to make sense of the language,” he says. “It’s a lot like Nuxalk! But, once you get through that initial hurdle, it’s a lot of fun.” Of the 14 or so languages he has learned, including French, Russian, Spanish, Michif (a traditional Metis dialect), Cree, Squuxs (South Tsimshian from Klemtu), Kinyarwanda (Rwanda), Swahili, Korean, Chinook, Tunisian Arabic, and Nuxalk, McCreery claims to be thoroughly fluent in about five languages at present. “I am pretty sure that if I spent a month or so immersed back in the language, I would be fluent again,” he says. “But, it takes practice to keep up the fluency.” Here in Bella

of making it useful for language learners,” he explains. “I am also creating curriculum and educating others about how to teach a language.” Documenting a language, he explains, is a lot different than simply learning it. “When you document a language you really dissect it,” he says. “It requires a full understanding of all of the

ambiguities and idiosyncrasies that exist in the language. It’s a much bigger undertaking than simply learning to converse.” McCreery has already documented the Squuxs language from Klemtu, spending over a year in the community with the only remaining speaker. She passed away not long after McCreery finished

his work, having lived into her late 90s. It is estimated that there are approximately 15 Nuxalk speakers left, many of them elders, and McCreery says the project has really helped the remaining speakers to sharpen their language skills and assisted others in becoming even more fluent. “When people get together and share the language it becomes sort of a snowball effect,” he explains. “It’s already in their memories, it just hasn’t been active for so long.” Despite the fact that Nuxalk isn’t widely spoken today, McCreery says he can still glean valuable information from listening to Nuxalk people speak, even if they have limited knowledge of the language. “They are speaking English but they are really speaking Nuxalk,” he says. “They are using English to express Nuxalk culture; the way Nuxalkmc people speak English gives me clues to the Nuxalk language.” Nuxalk, McCreery explained, is a fun language to speak because it is more ‘fluid.’ “Words in Nuxalk are more

flexible and ambiguous, not fixed like in English,” he says. “It’s more interesting because the context matters more than the particular word. It’s a language that lends itself well to humour; you can really manipulate it to convey multiple meanings.” Learning a new language can seem like an insurmountable task, something McCreery fully acknowledges. But, he says, it is not out of reach. “A lot of it is about forming relationships with people,” he says. “There is also the aspect of forming a relationship with the language and really being able to focus on it.” And once you have mastered your first language, McCreery says, it becomes easier to learn more. Now, he says, he can spend an hour with someone and figure out the grammar of a new language. “You have the confidence in yourself that you can do it,” he says. “The mind learns how to pick up the patterns more quickly.” For new language learners McCreery has some advice: love what you are doing and be patient. “They say that love is a choice,” he explains. “Choose to love what you are doing and it’s much easier.” McCreery says in takes approximately 2,000 – 3,000 hours to learn a language, with lots of ups and downs. “Maintaining motivation is the biggest challenge, even for experienced learners,” he says. “You will be down many, many times but it’s part of the process. You just have to keep trying.”

Award-winning aboriginal artists to play Bella Coola Music Festival July 19 & 20 A lot has happened for Don Amero in a short time, though it was a long road for him to get to where he is now. From the notoriously tough North End of Winnipeg, Don faced poverty, gangs, drugs and violence. Fortunately, his life was tempered by love, support, and faith in a Greater Power. Don’s musical style has been likened to John Mayer meets Keith Urban. Shaped and molded by his own experiences, his music carries the depth of hardship and luminosity of hope. His message is one of encouragement, positivity and beauty, despite the harshness

of the world. This singer/songwriter’s four albums (Heart On My Sleeve, The Long Way Home, Deepening, and Change Your Life) have generated nine national and international awards, and more than two dozen nominations. Among them are Aboriginal Songwriter and Male Artist of the Year at the 2009 Canadian Folk Music Awards, Best Country Single at the 2012 and 2013 Indian Summer Music Awards, Male Entertainer of the Year at the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Choice Music Awards, and most recently, a 2013 Juno nomination for Aboriginal Recording

Don Amero has won multiple awards, among them Aboriginal Songwriter and Male Artist of the Year at the 2009 Canadian Folk Music Awards of the Year. A highlight for Don happened in January 2013, when he was selected to showcase at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York City. The engagement was part of the APAP World

Music Conference, and Don was pleased to be one of only three Canadian Aboriginal musicians chosen to perform for a full‐house of New York music lovers and conference delegates. Just 20 years old,

Wesley Hardisty has an impressive resume, with hundreds of gigs, including Vancouver’s Talking Stick Festival, the Northern Scene National Arts Centre in Ottawa, and the Kamloops’ Cowboy Festival. From the Dene First Nation ina the North West Territories, and largely self-taught, Wesley is a fiddler, guitarist, singer and composer. His music blends rock, country, folk, Celtic, and Métis sounds. Critics write that his playing is passionate and compelling to watch, his love of music evident. Wesley took up the fiddle at age thirteen through the outreach work

Just 20 years old, Dene fiddler Wesley Hardisty is largely self-taught and has an impressive resume of the Kole Crook Fiddle Association. He later attended the prestigious Gulf Islands School of Performing Arts on Saltspring Island, and now loves teaching Aboriginal youth and being a positive role model. A soulful, natural musician

and inspiring young man, he experiments musically and creates emotionally evocative music. The Bella Coola Music Festival is pleased to bring Don Amero and Wesley Hardisty to our stage on July 19-20.

Valley Gallery showcases almost 70 young local artists By Ray McIlwain Sixty eight Bella Coola Valley school age children submitted artwork for this year’s Children’s Art Show, held May 29 to June 1 at the Valley Gallery. If you visited the Gallery during the show you will have been met at the door by Jacob Gascoyne’s large black and white batique depicting Pandora’s Box. There

was obviously a Greek theme at some point because just past the Pandora’s Box you came across Cela Jones’ bigger than life Medusa’s head and Jordan Tuck’s Minotaur.

beautiful effect of falling snow (a joint effort I am told). The elementary school students produced some delightful pieces – riots of colour and imaginative shapes. Several young artists obviously enjoyed having access to silver glitter paint, creating some attractive pictures. Finn Carlson did an imaginative piece by weaving strips of paper across a picture of an Aztec Sun disk. At the end of the hall, lit up by lights, was a surprisingly realistic and colourful image of a Moose standing in water

Young artist Jenny Moody done by Sequoia Clellamin (and quickly bought by his mother). For fun we did allow students to

offer their pictures for sale, and quite a few sold. The north wall had a series of blue and

white water colour washes and pictures reminiscent of the pictures on the china my mother used to have. And there amongst the fine blue drawings is a gorgeous orange fish by Catriona Nelson. Cats were obviously a theme. Each cat had a distinctive personality – perhaps reflecting the artists. The eyes of Sarah hall’s cat were an absolutely captivating greeny blue that caught everyone’s attention. Over on the sidewall were three cute cut out dolls with real hair and ribbons and a personal story writ-

Other striking pieces were Ashley Moore’s mermaid, Rebecca Chatham’s bluebird which I think she titled ‘Spring out of Winter’, and a lovely scene of a whimsical girl on a path amongst brightly coloured mushrooms by Niahm Cearnaigh. And, of course, there were many other works, too many to mention, that were well worth seeing. What you have to do is make sure you see this show next year. Although this show was sponsored by the Bella Coola Valley Arts Council, it would not have happened without the support and encouragement of the Valley’s teachers, and in particular we are grateful to Elaine Ignas and Sheila Wilson for their efforts and enthusiasm. And, needless to say, it required the efforts of the Valley’s children who had the courage to let their work be shown publicly.

film is partly about my personal struggle, but also touches on

the larger struggle within many communities.” The film features Hanuse as narrator and a central figure in the struggle to discover the best way to preserve and record the stories that embody the spirit and culture of the Nuxalk Nation – stories that are slipping away as fluent Nuxalk speakers dwindle and young Nuxalkmc people lose touch with their traditional way of life. Featuring a cast of four main characters, the film blends vivid shots of the Bella Coola Valley with watercolour animation to illustrate the role of Nuxalk oral tradition in past and present life. A familiar irony surfaces as members of the

Nuxalk community try to understand how modern technology can help preserve their culture while at the same time causing enormous harm. While Cry Rock continues to be screened across
