Area politicians pan pipeline By ANNA KILLEN AND JOSH MASSEY TERRACE MAYOR Dave Pernarowski says the Northern Gateway oil pipeline project threatens the environment and the northern way of life, and he doesn't believe the federal government's June 17 conditional approval of the project is the final say on the matter. “It wasn't surprising given the previous decision by the joint review panel, however I don't think

the federal government's approval at this point in any way finalizes this issue. I think they are still up against a lot of opposition in British Columbia,” said Pernarowski of last week's federal announcement, which gave approval to the controversial project, provided the 209 conditions laid out by last year's joint review panel are met. “I think our community continues to strongly oppose a project like this that could have harmful impacts to our environment and to

Power line work wraps up

INSPECTION TEAMS are now going from tower to tower along the 344 kilometre length of BC Hydro's Northwest Transmission Line, methodically checking each one prior to the line being energized sometime next month. The checks are part of the commissioning of the $736 million 287 kilovolt line, construction of which was officially completed June 7, says Jim Shepherd, the BC Hydro manager in charge of the project. “They're looking at each of the 1,092 towers – the foundations, testing each of the bolts, the sag on the [conductor] line to see if it's correct,” said Shepherd. And while the towers are being inspected, so to is the equipment at the BC Hydro's existing Skeena Substation south of Terrace, which connects the line to the provincial power grid, and the new one built where the line ends at Bob Quinn on Hwy37 North. “There are 40 steps and 85 pieces of major equipment,” said Shepherd of substation work checks. The Northwest Transmission Line also includes a fibre optic communications system that is also being checked to make sure it works, Shepherd added. “We're doing all of this very, very carefully,” he said of the transmission line which is engineered for a life span of 70 years.

our way of life in northern British Columbia,” he said. Terrace council voted against the project in 2012 with a 5-2 vote, with Pernarowski voting to stay neutral until a later point in time. When a new council forms after November’s local government elections, another motion related to Northern Gateway could be brought forward, said the mayor, who is not running for re-election. Pernarowski was just one of several northern leaders who spoke

out against the federal government's announcement, which was released without much government fanfare after market's closed on June 17. The $6.5 billion Enbridge Northern Gateway plan, over 10 years in the making, would see a twin set of pipelines built from Alberta to a marine terminal at Kitimat along a 1,100 kilometre route. The main pipeline would pump 525,000 barrels per day of diluted oil to the coast for export while

a second pipeline would pump a diluting agent called condensate, which makes the oil flow more smoothly through the export pipeline, from Kitimat to Alberta. From Kitimat, tankers would take the oil to Asian refineries. The decision by the federal government will allow the National Energy Board to issue the Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity.

Jobs boss tours industrial park THE PROVINCIAL jobs, tourism and training minister endured windy and rainy conditions in a June 20 morning trip to the City of Terrace’s Skeena Industrial Development Park south of the Northwest Regional Airport to witness for herself what the city has accomplished there. Shirley Bond, also the B.C. Liberal MLA for Prince GeorgeValemount, said having a large section of flat, stable land for industrial purposes is becoming rarer in the province than one might think, in reference to the approximately 2,000 acres that make up the park. Most of the land is crown land for now and the city has an agreement with the province to buy portions when needed for resale to companies and other agencies. The city has already sold a portion to the Kitselas First Nation’s Kitselas Development Corporation which then did a deal with a Prince George worker accommodation camp hired to provide housing for a natural gas pipeline workforce. “The park is an important part of the development [city] council is considering so I think it was important to see it on the ground

and get a sense of what their vision is for it,” she said of her visit to the industrial park. She briefly stopped at the accommodation camp being built for the Pacific Trails Pipeline workforce. “One of the advantages of this project is it is a very large piece of property that is suitable to this kind of project, and there are not that many of them when you look at the province. It's pretty much flat with lots of great gravel,” said Bond of the industrial park. “We have had a roll in that as well,” Bond said of the industrial park establishment. “The project is on our major investments office list, so we have actually been working with the city and potential investors. So it’s good to be on the ground and see what it looks like.” The province’s major investments office had a role in connecting the City of Terrace with Chinese companies interested in establishing a manufacturing foothold in B.C. That connection has resulted in two visits by city officials to China since last fall in anticipation of selling as much as 1,000 acres of the industrial park to

Chinese firms. Bond said she sees the development park and bringing foreign manufacturers here as an important diversification of the economy. She said the potential for Chinese investors to build manufacturing plans here is a sign of diversification success. “The opportunity the city has here is job creation and tax revenue,” Bond added. The minister did add that her ministry and the province will play a central role in policy and legislation surrounding the development of any kind of workforce associated with Chinese manufacturing plants. “There will continue to be strict regulations. We are also looking at ways to increase immigration numbers in our province because there are people who want to come here and live permanently in Canada, and immigration has been the backbone of this country so we are working very closely with the federal government to make sure employers who decide they have a need for employees from outside our country, there needs to be a rigorous process in place,” said Bond.

From front

Northwest Transmission Line powers up The actual energizing of the line, when ready, will be fairly low key, Shepherd continued. “It won't be a switch. It's a button and a qualified BC Hydro technician will be the one pushing that button,” he said. During construction, workers strung nearly 2,100 kilometres of electrical line, called conductor in the power line business. That length accounts for three separate phases of two conductor line bundles each which span the transmission line's distance. Shepherd said the total length was approximately the driving distance from Terrace to Regina, Saskatchewan. The Northwest Transmission Line's two immediate customers are Calgary-based AltaGas, which will feed power it is selling to BC Hydro into the line from its three run of river hydro-electric projects along the Iskut River west of the Bob Quinn substation, and Imperial Metals which will take power to run its nearly-finished Red Chris copper mine located north of Bob Quinn. Each company is responsible for its own connection lines to the Bob Quinn substation. Shepherd expects the Forrest Kerr run of river project, the largest of the three belonging to AltaGas, to be the first user of the Northwest Transmission Line by beginning to feed power in next month. “As you know, AltaGas is now commissioning Forrest Kerr and we expect that to happen in July,” Shepherd said. The completion of the Red Chris mine and its taking of power from the Northwest Transmission Line will happen afterward.

First envisioned more than a decade ago with several starts and stops along the way, the Northwest Transmission Line was officially announced in the fall of 2009 with prime contractor Valard Construction and engineering company Burns & McDonnell being chosen in the fall of 2011 as the lead companies for the project. Also in 2011 BC Hydro began signing benefits agreements with First Nations and the Nisga'a Nation along the transmission line route, setting out contracts for clearing right of way and other economic arrangements. The line was originally scheduled to be in service at the end of May but a combination of terrain and weather during construction caused some delays. Work was also shut down on the project in March when a worker fell from a man bucket suspended by a crane about 85 feet above the ground and was killed. The shut down was not only in respect for the worker but also to check work practices. “We wanted to make sure we were safe for our workers going forward,” said Shepherd. Of the nearly 1,100 towers installed, a number of which were airlifted into place by a heavy lift helicopter, two collapsed. Both were secured temporarily awaiting permanent installation at the time of their collapse, said Shepherd. “The towers were in the same place and that turned out to be a very windy area,” he said. The transmission line is engineered to withstand a 1-in-100 years storm with no major damage, a 1-in-50 years storm with no service interruption and a 1-in-2,475 years earth-

MacCarthy Terrace BC

quake. What this means is that if there was a worst storm condition in a 100-year period,

there would be no major damage and that if there is a worst storm condition in a 50-year period, the line will

work fine. And if there was a worst earthquake in a 2,475 year period, there would be no major

damage to the line. If towers are in an avalanche zone, they must withstand a worst avalanche in a 100-year

period and if towers are in a flood area, the must withstand the worst flood in a 200-year period.

Lunch with a view On days of beautiful weather this summer, why not take your lunch outside

WITH ALL the beautiful scenery in and around Terrace, there’s lots to enjoy and several sites are set up already with benches and gorgeous views. On Facebook, we asked for people’s favourite places to eat lunch and got a variety of responses. The photos here show only a sample of the many places mentioned. Others include the Kitsumkalum boat launch, the tree park, the benches along Millennium Trail, Kleanza Creek, the Terrace Mountain trail lookout, Lost Lake anywhere along the river, the hill by the Terrace Arena, Ferry Island, the library park, Ackermans Point on Kalum Lake and various pullouts on Hwy 16 east or west of the city, including near Copper River.

FROM TOP left clockwise: • the benches at the top of Lanfear Hill sit next to the trail and look across the road to a treed area • the view from Kalum hill near Terraceview Lodge spans across the city, including Christy Park, where soccer players game up on weekends • this bench on a tree stump sits in the middle of the Pioneer Cemetery overlooking George Little’s gravesite to the left and the site of a Graf family member laid to rest on the left of the photo • on the way to the old Skeena bridge, these benches are tucked behind a few trees overloking the Skeena River and the bridge itself • Gruchy’s Beach is a bit of a drive away but on a nice day, it’s well worth the trip.

EDITORIAL

Long game MANY years ago when Alcan was still Alcan, an employee said this about the aluminum manufacturer: “Alcan is just like a glacier. It moves a couple of inches every year and, eventually, gets to where it wants to go.” That was about midpoint in the decades-long attempt by Alcan to increase its aluminum smelting capacity in the northwest. Now, after ownership changes and several generations of proposals, propositions and ups and down, the result is the massive modernization project now underway in Kitimat. This is by way of explanation of Enbridge’s Northern Gateway oilexporting pipeline plan. Nearly 15 years after it was first conceived and 10 years after Kitimat was identified as the pipeline terminus, last week’s federal government announcement that it was conditionally approving the project, it remains very much a young lad in short pants. As Enbridge itself admits, it is no where near ready to begin construction, having yet to meet approximately half of the National Energy Board’s 209 approval conditions. Northern Gateway faces innumerable hurdles, the most obvious being the well-financed and well-organization coalition of opposing aboriginal and environmental groups – not to mention the B.C. government. Companies like to speak of “generational opportunities” in promoting large projects. For all sides, this is one of those projects. ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

e can measure our parenting success by how well our children follow rules when out of our sight and not monitored by a teacher, coach, police or other authority. However, following the Vancouver Stanley Cup riots and the many arrested and charged when social media supplied cops with video evidence, our young folk should realize they cannot count on being unobserved any more, anywhere, any time. Even a person carrying no tech devices could observe them as I did last Thursday forenoon. June 12 was warm and sunny as I walked from the Medical Building to the library. Teachers’ rotating picketing was underway. Four young teens gathered on the steps of the George Little band shell; one skateboarded short runs back and forth. I met no one else until I turned in at the library. A boy about 10 stood near the bicycle rack beside the garbage can, shifting from foot to foot, stuffing food into his mouth with both hands as though practising for a hot dog eating contest.

THROUGH BIFOCALS

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI A take-out drink waited on the concrete handrail. Clearly embarrassed to be seen by someone old enough to be his great-grandmother, this closet eater dithered for a second, the way a feeding squirrel pauses to assess danger, before wedging more food into his bulging cheeks. I proceeded into the library: returned a book, and scanned titles of new nonfiction on the shelves near the washroom before going into the magazine area. There the boy sat on a sofa, reading. Though food and drink are prohibited in the library – a bold foyer sign says so – in full view on the coffee table

in front of him was his takeout drink. How had he evaded the desk clerk with his drink? The library was quiet, nearly empty – no kindergarten groups, no class tours, no bustle of patrons coming or going. Did his parents’ possess some personal clout that let him believe he had special permission to ignore library rules? My time in the library was short, maybe 10 minutes. On my way out, on the walkway pavement beside the garbage can where the boy had stood I came upon a round, cocoacoloured object, smaller than a golf ball, with a dusty appearance. When I nudged it with my toe it felt spongy and rolled toward the curb. Half a dozen more balls lay scattered about, and sitting upright among them, an empty TimBits box ... all within arm’s reach of the garbage can. A box of twenty TimBits costs $3.70. An average cold drink $2. I reviewed events. The boy had been eating as I arrived. Except for the boy few if any patrons had entered the library after me. This kid was neatly dressed,

S TANDARD

his hair freshly barbered. If he could afford $5.70 for a mid-morning snack and discard a good portion of it on the ground, he wasn’t orphaned, poor or hungry. He was deliberately flouting rules including an $81 fine for wasteful unsightly littering. My instincts told me to march back inside, sit down beside the kid and sternly say, “I noticed you left TimBits and a cardboard container scattered over the library walkway. How would you like to come pick them up and put them in the garbage can where they belong?” Would he have argued, “I didn’t do it.”? Become nasty and let fly a string of fourletter words? Or owned up to his transgression and tided up behind himself, however unwillingly? I’ll never know. Gutlessly, I let the incident slide by. But I fumed as I walked away and I’m still kicking myself for allowing him to go on thinking he’s safe to behave as he pleases so long as his parents don’t know.

The Mail Bag Housing needs local support

of Canadians,” you are apparently not including those of us who live here. We are Canadians too, and it is not in our best interest. The jobs that are created to build the pipeline will be temporary, and will likely be given to people from outside the area, who will be housed in camps and will not contribute to our local economies.

Dear Sir: In a letter to the editor in the June 4 edition of The Terrace Standard Sasa Loggin asks why I am bringing for the issue of housing again now. I brought it up again in response to the recent stories on homelessness in our community. As days, weeks and months go by the homelessness situation gets worse. Women are leaving the Ksan Society transition house, returning to their abusers because there is nowhere else for them to live. Some women are even forgoing services and staying in their abusive situation because they know there is nowhere else for them to live. There are families sharing a single accommodation, there are more people in our shelters than ever before and there are people, some by choice, some by circumstance, sleeping outdoors. I brought it up again because of frustration and desperation. I agree that community dialogue and cooperation is the way to go for community projects – it is more inclusive, it makes people feel they belong and many heads are very often better than one. We are taking that route for a youth shelter for the community. We jumped in late, still not totally sure why we never got an invitation to participate earlier but we were working with Kermode Friendship Society and things were moving along so we weren’t overly concerned about it. Once we did get the invitation we immediately jumped on board and shared the work we had done. That was about six or seven months ago. For those unaware we have a large house available, on acreage, intended for the youth project. We have secured funding to do the necessary repairs and upgrades but there seems to be no rush to do that because the endeavor is still in the dialogue stage.

ANTI-ENBRIDGE PROTESTERS in George Little Park just prior to final Northern Gateway hearings here in June 201.

Where has Harper been? Dear Sir: An open letter to the Right Honourable Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada. Dear Mr. Harper: The June 17 announcement of your government’s approval of the Northern Gateway project has precipitated an enormous volume of reactions from Canadians and especially British Columbians. I do not expect that mine will be of any more conse-

quence than all of these others but still feel compelled to write. I have lived in Terrace, B.C. for 42 years and have experienced the many ups and downs of the economy here. Sawmills have come and gone, schools have opened and closed, people have moved in and out.

I am not aware that you have ever visited northwest B.C., but I think it would have been appropriate to do so quite some time ago when this pipeline was first proposed.

Government could set troubling precedent

n the eve of the teachers’ full-out strike, the government proposed that “if either party is unhappy with the outcome of the government’s appeal of the court case the entire collective agreement can be terminated and a new round of bargaining begins.” To appreciate this proposal I examined the 2014 and 2011 decision of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (98 and 71 pages respectively) and the 2007 Supreme Court of Canada decision (80 pages) concerned with British Columbia’s nurses. In 2002 the government enacted a new strategy for dealing with employees in education and health services. The nurses opposed that strategy’s principles and went to court. The nurses lost, appealed, and lost again. The dispute ended up at the Supreme Court of Canada. In a precedentsetting decision that court agreed with the nurses. At issue was the Charter of Rights’ fundamental “freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, includ-

ing freedom of the press and other means of communication”. This right means more than the right to sit on a park bench and argue with a neighbour. The Supreme Court ruled that the “freedom of association guaranteed by s. 2(d) of the Charter includes a procedural right to collective bargaining.” The Supreme Court went on to say that “Recognizing that workers have the right to bargain collectively as part of their freedom to associate reaffirms the value of dignity, personal autonomy, equality and democracy that are inherent in the Charter.” The Supreme Court went on to say that “Association for purposes of collective bargaining has long been recognized as a fundamental Canadian right which predated the Charter.” That settled the matter for the nurses, but not for the teachers. In the 2011 Supreme Court of British Columbia decision, the court found that “the legislation dealing with teachers was modelled on the same provincial

GUEST COMMENT

ANDRE CARREL government theory as in Health Services.” In other words, the government had ignored the Supreme Court’s ruling that its public workers’ strategy was unconstitutional and, with Bill 28, proceeded to apply the same strategy to teachers. The court

declared that legislation to be invalid and allowed the government twelve months “to address the repercussions of this decision.” The government did not appeal. Instead it waited a year before introducing Bill 22 which was again challenged by the teachers. In its decision on Bill 22 (released in 2014) the court noted that Bill 22 “repealed the legislation which had been declared unconstitutional in the Bill 28 decision. But at the same time Bill 22 also then immediately re-enacted the previously declared unconstitutional provisions in essentially identical terms.” The court noted that Bill 22 “was unconstitutional and invalid from the date of its enactment.” The court rejected the government’s claim of “good faith consultations” with teachers as the individual who was supposed to be the neutral facilitator in the talks was in fact the same person who had recommended the disputed political strategy to the government. The court noted that there was no precedent “where legislation that was ruled

unconstitutional” and was subsequently re-enacted in substantially the same form. In view of the government’s blatant disrespect for the courts, it was ordered to pay the teachers $2 million for damages (yes, taxpayer’s dollars). If the teachers were to accept the government’s proposal referred to above, they would hand the government the power to impose working conditions, pay, and benefits on teachers. It would establish a precedent for a strategy of using economic pressures to circumvent the constitution and for using its legislative powers with impunity. This dispute is no longer about money, class size and composition. If the government succeeds, the consequences would be severe for all employees, public or private, unionized or not. The government’s actions are of the kind more commonly associated with the Third World’s marginal democracies. Andre Carrel is a retired public sector administrator living in Terrace, B.C.

■ On strike TEACHERS ENDURED a heavy rain storm the morning of June 20 in the front of the Coast Mountains School District office as the B.C. Teachers’ Federation began its fourth full day of pickets against the province. Teachers had held a study session June 16 before the full-scale strike began June 17. Picketers are taking shifts, with some arriving early in the mornings to set up picket lines which are being honoured by non-teaching unionized school district employees. And a wiener roast was held at one picket line Friday. Both teachers and the province say they are willing to concede ground on wage demands and offers but class size and composition remain sticking points. Going into the weekend, both sides appeared willing to accept mediation.

Housing action needed I think that dialogue has been going on for maybe five or six years? Just before I retired as executive director of the Ksan House Society, I met with my counterparts of Kitimat and Prince Rupert. We came together to discuss the dire situation women, and their children, because of the boom. We strategized as to ways we could help more women living with violence. We can do things like telephone support, we can offer information what subsidies are available provincially and we can phone around to see if there is a transition house in another community that space may be available. That means pulling kids from schools, leaving

family and friends, leaving jobs finding new doctors, dentists, etc. But, for us, what it doesn’t mean is helping them find safe and affordable accommodation in Terrace – because it doesn’t exist. I sometimes wonder if any of those women currently in violent situations very well might be some of the youth that were needing a youth shelter when that dialogue started five or six years ago. Ironically, for the housing project we had to cancel, the one the city wants market value for the land, had it gone ahead, people would have been moving into the units this past weekend.

Where’s Harper been? The risk of oil spills is huge, both from pipeline ruptures and from tanker mishaps. The repeated threat that “pipelines are safer than rail transport of oil” is never completed to include the risk of tanker transport – is that safer than rail? You have created a situation where many people have lost faith in their government and in the pos-

sibility of democratic debate. I’m finding it hard to be proud to be a Canadian at this time. It feels like we are being governed based on the principles of economics and industry rather than the heritage of Confederation. Carol Harrison, Terrace, B.C.

For $500 each household, and some households are dividing the cost, receive a weekly assortment of fresh produce and other items from late spring until fall. Paying up front through the Community Supported Agriculture program provides participating farmers with the money they need to plant.

growing food. A first distribution June 14, also meant as an information session, featured eggs, fresh rhubarb, radishes, a begonia plant and dandelion jelly. Rhubarb crisp, cake and punch was served as participants collected their allotments. Despite the increase in participation this year, there is room for 10 more households. “We hope to include other local producers in the program,” Diana Penner said. A new component being added this year is cooking classes at Ksan Place and yesterday's distribution included pesto made at the Ksan Place's kitchens. Also included were various

sprouts and herbs with one being Maggie, a peppery-herb also called a Dutch celery. The idea for the program grew from a separate food program run by the Kalum Community School. It's called the Good Food Box and it is financed by families pooling their money for mass purchases at grocery stores here. But when Jedrzejczyk from the school society began looking for local food producers to supply the quantities needed, there were none to be found. “I realized that if we are to have local agriculture, we would need to provide the capital up front,” she said of the basis for Community Supported Agriculture.

Terrace Standard Wednesday, June 25, 2014

’ve always been fascinated by the notion of hidden treasure, be it flecks of gold in a fast-running creek, antiques tucked away in attics or basements, notes sealed in bottles, or—even better—jewels, old coins and the like shoved under loose floorboards, holed up in caves, buried on beaches, or resting in rusting hulks of ancient shipwrecks. You don’t want to know how many imaginary treasure maps I created as a kid, but it’s a lot. To this day there are few words as exciting to me as “X marks the spot,” and it’s a lifelong regret that I haven’t learned to scuba dive so that I can explore crooks and crannies under the sea myself. (But my years aren’t done yet!) Just recently, no scuba needed, I chanced upon a real-life, genuine treasure. I was trekking along a rough, winding path. Wind screamed through the trees, and showered me with broken branches and sharp twigs. Freezing rain beat down, soaking me through and setting my bones to aching. In the gathering evening gloom, it felt as if I’d taken a wrong turn—no, no, wait, sorry, bit of an exaggeration there. But I did go to my mailbox recently. And it was probably rainy. I do live near trees. And I did discover treasure. As I turned the key, opened the metal door, and spotted the parcel’s sender’s address, my stomach flipped. I knew the gem it contained before I even opened it. A while back, I’d bought my grandma a journal called, “Grandma, Tell

JUST A THOUGHT

EV BISHOP

Treasure! Me Your Story,” by Susan Branch. I hoped, of course, she’d enjoy meandering down memory lane and ruminating on the various questions, but I was quick to admit that really the “gift” was for me. My grandma Ruby Forsyth, née Gilgan, has always been one my heroes and inspirations—on motherhood, on coping when life is hard, on delighting in the beauty and wonder of simple, perfect things. I have never met anyone as patient as her. Ever. I’m fortunate because I still have her in my life to talk to and visit, but I wanted a written record, notes about

her life growing up and as a young wife and mother, pioneering with my grandfather. She graciously obliged—the proof of which now sat in my mailbox. As I slit the end of the package and saw the journal’s telltale pink and white edge, I couldn’t have been more thrilled had I found an old wooden chest with a pirate’s sword sticking out of it! To have pages and pages written in her own hand? Well, “treasure” doesn’t suffice to describe it, actually. When I read her anecdotes, I hear her voice and see the twinkle in her eye. And the fact that much of her story is also the story of me—and of my children—and how we came to be—isn’t lost on me either. I’d share some of her great tidbits, except they’re mine, all mine! Just kidding—but I am out of space. I’ll have to be content to leave you with one line. Under “What is your best advice about life?” my grandma writes: Living a kind and considerate life is better than being obsessed with becoming rich. The advice is all the more meaningful because I saw how she lived and lives. She embodies kindness and consideration. But, sheesh, her words do make me wonder if she knows about my predilection for treasure and meant to warn me. In case anyone’s worried, don’t be. My obsession with treasure has never been a lust for wealth. It’s always adventure I covet. In her journal, I have both.

Are You Keeping on Top of Your Finances? Many small business owners take a basic approach to financial management. They have two main concerns: whether their bank account balance is positive; and if they’ll get their business income and expense information to the accountant in time for their annual tax return.

Cash flow statement: this reports the cash generated and used during a specific period. This differs from the income statement because cash may not change hands when a sale or purchase occurs. As a business owner, looking at your financial statements annually isn’t enough,

Avoid Hiring Traps: Recruit Strategically, Effectively In business, when it comes to the proper fit, nowhere is it more important than in recruitment of new staff. Your hiring strategy is key to your company’s future growth. There is no better way to retain employees than to ensure their personal and work values fit in with the culture of your company. Learn about these five steps for a successful hiring process. 1. Start with the job description Ensure that the job description is current and accurately reflects the requirements, skills, and knowledge required to complete the job at the highest possible level.

Wednesday, June 25, 2014 Terrace Standard

2. Prepare questions Once you’re ready to interview, be sure that you ask questions directly relevant to the tasks of the job. A good practice is to include behavioral questions. In other words, do not ask “what if” questions; instead, ask “tell me a time when you…” type questions. 3. Watch out for hiring “traps” Hiring traps include situations where a manager hires someone to replace an exiting employee. The trap is the propensity to hire the “opposite” of the skill set from the last employee who held the position. For example: if your exiting staff had difficulty writing reports, you want to be certain that this new employee can write Continued on Page 15 CALL TODAY

Know the culture of your company There is no better way to increase employee turnover than to have the wrong fit for your corporate culture. And conversely, there is no better way to retain employees than to ensure their personal and work values fit in with the culture of your company. 5. Be courageous in your hiring Hire people who are smarter than you— people who have more experience, better connections, and more expertise. This takes courage for a manager/owner to implement.

How To Hire For Keeps

Human resources is part of the larger business strategy in a small business. Recruitment and employee training has to fit in with the business culture. There are several points to consider while deciding on the HR strategy for your business. 1. Recruitment Know what you are hiring for. Use lots of behavioural interviewing questions – otherwise the business may be systemically hiring people who can answer rehearsed interview questions. Check references. 2. Orientation Be sure that if an employee starts the first day, doesn’t know where to hang her coat, is handed a 3 inch thick policies and procedures manual and eats lunch alone – it is pretty well all downhill from there. Develop an orientation program that includes mentors and remember that orientation is not an event –it’s a process.

An electrifying and smart choice

Looks The Smart Electric looks like the regular Smart, with a compact little body that provides and amazing amount of interior space and a lot of crash protection on the outside. The exterior of all the Smart Cars have been designed as a singular safety cage, called the Tridion Safety Cell. Other cars have exterior panels that absorb impacts the Smart’s exterior metal bits are the strongest part of the car. In crash tests, these tiny cars fare well. The Smart Electric, just like the gasoline version, is available as a coupe or cabriolet. Spotting a Smart Electric is a bit tricky; this is not like buying a Toyota Prius or Chevy Volt. No, this little dynamo blends right in. It is only a small decal on the side with the emblem of a plug or the subtle badge on that back that gives anything away. Inside My nine-year-old son Charlie really wanted to go for a ride not because it’s electric but because he had never been in a Smart Car before and wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Since there are only two seats, he could place his seat back as far as he liked and had vast amounts of leg room. He also commented on the large cargo shelf behind the two front seats for storage. The cabin is tall and we both had a commanding view down the road. The rest of the cabin is refreshingly simple. There are two bug-like gauges on top of the dash that indicate the batteries state of charge and if the car is drawing power or regenerating power when coasting or braking. The instrument cluster provides a simple trip computer displaying the vehicle’s electric range and an “eco” meter that helps the driver be more efficient. Drive Under the cargo shelf in the back is the Lithium-Ion battery pack that has 17.6kWh or roughly, a 135km range when fully charged. This little car can be quick too, thanks to the 96 ft.-lbs. of instant torque from the electric motor. This moves the car along quickly, but the throttle has been calibrated for smooth acceleration, helping the driver gain the best efficiency. I should point out that the high centre of gravity, short wheelbase and slightly choppy ride all combine to make a less than connected car in the corners, so be aware that this car can accelerate quickly but it will not corner quickly. What the electric version has over the regular gasoline model is a much smoother delivery of power. No more anemic gasoline engine and gone is the choppy transmission. The electric motor is smooth and refined. Verdict Once again, the Smart is a perfect of example of how to get the most out of a small space. The electric cord that connects the car to a 120-volt outlet is packaged into the tailgate of the car; in fact this is the best electric car packaging I’ve seen. Most companies just leave a bag in the trunk, while this system hides it all away. With a starting price of $26,990 for the coupe or $29,990, the Smart Electric is an expensive two-seat car but a bargain the electric world, the least expensive in Canada. The regular gasoline Smart is really an inner-city runabout, which is why the electric version makes so much sense. With up to 138km of range, this Smart Electric will have more than enough range for existing Smart buyers and a great second car for any city family. The Smart electric is now on my list of cars that I truly enjoy driving, the best Smart of the bunch. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca The Lowdown Power: 55kW electric motor Fill-up: 138km range on a single charge Sticker price: $26,990-$29,990

Which cars on the market today don’t I like? It’s a question I’m often asked and one I struggle to answer. Today’s automobiles are made so well, there are no real turkeys. But, and there is always a “but”, there are certainly cars I like more than others and some I prefer not to drive. The regular Smart ForTwo is one of them. The small dimensions are perfect as a city runabout but the lethargic gasoline engine and very choppy automatic transmission make it more work to drive than I prefer. Well, after driving the latest Smart ForTwo Electric Drive (Smart Electric) my mood has changed to the point that this might be the best little electric car for the city, it’s that good.

The Supercar: It’s something anyone of any age can appreciate. The design. The engineering. The way the engine and exhaust purrs – or roars – when you push on the throttle. They are the culmination of the workmanship of talented individuals who dedicate their lives to crafting components that are then distributed globally. Now put more than 100 of these machines together (111 to be exact) and the appreciation factor goes up 110-fold. To some, Supercars are a gaudy form transportation. An arrogant display of wealth.

Turning heads while out raising cash But to the group who participated in the second annual Diamond Rally, it’s more than just a showcase of imported engineering or customization. It’s about a great cause. It’s for charity. I’m not going out on a limb when I say that car enthusiasts love to see amazing cars, regardless of context. What’s more, it’s even cooler when a group of them travel together up one of the most incredible drives in the world: the Sea-toSky Highway. What started off last year with 42 cars quickly grew to three digits. Each entering car chose a charity to raise funds for. As the day was ramping up, the Brian Jessel BMW dealership in Vancouver was overrun with vehicles ranging from a 1957 Ford Thunderbird (it was quite the car back in the day, and still is) to the Lamborghini Aventador. Along with Nissan GT-Rs, Maseratis, Porsches, Ferraris, and more. Even the brand new BMW i8, which had yet to be driven on Canadian soil, broke ground and was the lead car in the day’s event. The route would take us along the spectacular Sea-to-Sky highway, with a stop in Squamish and then the main rendezvous in Whistler. Fellow motorists were pleasantly

surprised when they spotted the exotics driving beside them on the famous road. My ride? – The humble, all new, BMW M4. I say humble because I had nowhere near as much horsepower (this only generates 425) as some, or most, of my fellow drivers. But what I did have was the “wow” factor. Clad in an extremely eye-catching Austin Yellow Metallic coat, she was quite the sight to see. What made it even more special? It’s a 6-speed manual. Unsuspecting admirers didn’t catch me overhearing their conversations including, “Dude, this one’s a stick. Awesome.”

Area politicians vow to fight pipeline

ANTI-ENBRIDGE PROTESTERS rallied in front of the Northwest Regional Airport June 17, the day of the federal government’s decision to conditionally approve the pipeline. may bring, but they will not be at the expense of our environment," Polak said. Saying the decision is “no great surprise”, Austin said he believes this is “the beginning of the next chapter of the fight on this.” “I don’t think this is any further ahead today than it was yesterday, I think the opposition will continue and it will end up in the courts,” he said June 17, adding he

sees the fight heading to the Supreme Court of Canada. “I’m no constitutional lawyer, but if you look at the judicial rulings over the last five to 10 years in regards to First Nations’ rights and title, I suspect the First Nations lawyers will have a field day with this one. And we’ll fight it all the way.” Skeena - Bulkley Valley NDP MP Nathan Cullen has been at the forefront of regional op-

position. “I truly believe this pipeline will never be built. I think the resolve and the passion of the people of the northwest will overcome it ... governments can grant permits, but only people can give permission,” he said. The federal NDP would put aside the decision if they are elected to form the government in next year’s federal election, he said. Area environmental group SkeenaWild director Greg Knox said his group stands with First Nations. “Everybody’s saying the same thing, that they will support First Nations in legal action [and] that they’re willing to stand on the line,” he said. “I think this is going to be a very long, drawn out process.” Aboriginal opponents in the North Coast region include the Haida, Gitgaat, Gitxaala, Heiltsuk, Lax Kw’alaams, Metlakatla and Haisla First Nations. And Northern Gateway project leader Janet Holder said she will continue to work to build on the 26 equity agreements the company has reached with aboriginal communities along the proposed pipeline route. She said the project team will review the government's decision and continue to work toward meeting the 209 conditions set out by the federal panel. "Our team and I will continue travel-

“After carefully reviewing the report, the Government accepts the independent Panel’s recommendation to impose 209 conditions on Northern Gateway Pipelines’ proposal,” Canada’s Natural Resources Minister Greg Rickford said in a news release. Rickford noted that the proponent still needs to consult with aboriginal communities and secure provincial permits. Skeena NDP MLA Robin Austin said the provincial NDP will now focus on holding Premier Christy Clark to her word around the province’s previouslyreleased five conditions for new heavy oil pipelines, which include ‘world leading’ marine and land spill protections, resolution of aboriginal concerns and a fair share of benefits for B.C. “My job is to represent the people up here who are a huge majority opposed to this and to hold the BC Liberals to account,” Austin said. “Prior to the election, Christy Clark made it clear that she had five conditions, those five conditions are nowhere close to being met.” The province has said the project doesn’t yet meet those conditions and Environment Minister Mary Polak has indicated the province could refuse permits for the project’s construction in B.C. "We recognize the benefits that the Northern Gateway project

Moly mine ‘milestone’ reached WORK ON roads and for a construction camp at Kitsault has been started by Avanti Mining in a lead up to a planned full-on development starting next year for a molybdenum mine scheduled to open in 2017. The work follows the granting by the provincial government on June 13 of a mines permit and the subsequent granting of other permits and leases allowing work to start. "This is a very significant milestone for the Kitsault molybdenum project,” said Avanti president Gordon Bogden of the mines permit for the project which will cost close to $1 billion in construction and ongoing capital costs. Avanti has lined up a portion of its financing, as well as sales agreements with South Korean and German firms and agencies and is now working on final financing. It is forecasting a construction workforce of 700 people at the peak and anticipates needing a workforce of 300 people over a projected 14-year life. “I am eager to see production at Kitsault begin, which will provide up to 300 new, well-paying jobs for British Columbians,” said provincial mines minister Bill Bennett. Avanti received its provincial environmental approvals a little over a year ago and anticipates receiving federal environmental approval soon. And if Avanti has been making progress on its approvals, it took a major step forward when it negotiated a revenue sharing deal with the Nisga'a Nation that was announced the beginning of this month. That deal will see the Nisga'a Nation receive up to two per cent of net smelter royalties with the actual dollar amount varying depending upon the price of molybdenum. The Nisga'a concerns over environmental protection were also addressed within the agreement. Although not within Nisga'a lands granted under a 2000 land claims treaty, the Nisga'a do have an in-

fluence, through the treaty, in what happens in the Kitsault area. The Nisga'a had listed environmental and other worries about

the development and was using the dispute resolution mechanism within the 2000 treaty to register those objections.

The Nisga'a also filed a BC Supreme Court suit last year to have the provincial environmental approval overturned but stopped

that suit in the lead up to revenue sharing negotiations and subsequent agreement. In addition to revenue from Avanti, the

Nisga'a are also in negotiations with the provincial government for a share of the tax revenue that will flow from the project.

That falls in line with a provincial policy of providing tax monies flowing from either new mines or expansions of existing ones.

Airport could get its own firetruck and crew project in Kitimat and ongoing development work by numerous pipeline and liquefied natural gas companies, is responsible for the continuing increase in passenger traffic. Hendry said the final numbers will come in by July 7. A n d just five months Hendry into the year, the Northwest Regional Airport came very close to cracking the 100,000 passenger mark. May’s total of 21,179 passengers, the third month in a row the airport has experienced traffic of more than 20,000 passengers,

brought the year to date total to 98,369. That’s more than the January to May 2013 total of 60,602. For all of 2013, 177,294 passengers

used the airport, an increase over the 139,193 mark in 2012. The airport is responding by expanding its long term parking area to handle 800 vehi-

cles and has announced plans to build a third aircraft parking stand in front of the terminal building so that more aircraft can load and unload passengers during

the same time period. Work is also underway to rebuild a section of Bristol Road, the airport’s main service road. Airport passenger figures come from

scheduled carriers Hawkair, Air Canada Jazz, Central Mountain Airlines and WestJet and do not included chartered or private passenger totals.

DEPENDING ON how final passenger numbers tally up at the end of this month, the Northwest Regional Airport may be forced by federal law to operate its own emerg e n c y response service with its own firetruck and staff. A n d with surging numbers so far, airport Carman manager Carman Hendry said he expects this will be the case. “The aviation regulations states that every six months we have to look back at our passenger numbers for the previous 12 and when then number gets to 180,000 we have one year to come into line to that regulation for supplying emergency services,” said Hendry. The last time they did the count they were just under the threshold with 179,600 as of Jan.1. If the total rises by at least 400 compared to that last count by July 1 then the threshold is eclipsed and the federal government will supply a firetruck with 1,200 litre capacity and foam capability, and a shelter to story it at a value of $1.5 million. Transport Canada also assists with training, however after that the airport must pay wages and maintain the equipment. One person is required for the single truck, and Hendry said he hasn't figured out yet exactly how to staff it, saying it could be more than one person part time. “If the frequency of the aircraft or the size of the aircraft increases substantially we would then have to go to the next higher standard with additional equipment so we need to work with industry to see what they think is going to happen in the future and it's very difficult to tell what's going to happen,” said Hendry.

Revenue deal with Nisga’a first of many THE PRESIDENT of a company with a massive gold deposit in northwestern B.C. expects that a revenue sharing deal signed with the Nisga'a Nation will be the first of several such arrangements. Interests of several First Nations in the area are also involved with the KSM property, billed as one of the largest undeveloped gold properties in the world with a projected mine life being measured in the decades, says Rudi Fronk of Seabridge Gold. “We're also working with the Tahltan, the Gitxsan Wilp Skii Lm Lax Ha and the Gitanyow,” said Fronk. While he said he could not divulge the details of any financial conversations, he said revenue sharing and other agreements are crucial for the KSM project which is located approximately 65 kilometres northwest of Stewart. “Right from the start you have to acknowledge they do have rights,” said Fronk of the first step toward revenue sharing and other agreements that form part of modern day development. Terms of the deal between Seabridge and the Nisga'a, termed a benefits agreement, are being kept confidential but a company statement indicates it “establishes a long-term co-operative relationship between Seabridge and the Nisga'a Nation under which the Nisga'a Nation will support devel-

achievement of certain project milestones and annual production payments based on a percentage of net profits, with the net profits payable normalizing after the project

has recovered its capital costs, as determined under the terms of the agreement.” The agreement also covers Nisga'a employment and business

opportunities tied to the proposed mine. The Nisga'a will, in turn, provide project support letters to provincial and federal regulators and, importantly, support letters to potential investors in the project which has been costed at $5.3 billion. Fronk said providing support letters to potential investors is crucial for the project's success because they establish social licence. “Having social licence is a big step forward,” he said. In addition to gold, the property also contains silver and significant amounts of copper and Seabridge is drilling again this summer to firm up reserves of the latter base metal. “With this property we're looking at a mine life of 80 to 100 years,” said Fronk. The project is now being reviewed within the provincial environmental review process with the company expecting approval soon and federal approval thereafter, he said. Seabridge is also looking for deep pocket investors with Fronk saying by itself the company doesn't have the financial ability to develop the project. “This is well beyond our capabilities. I doubt there are 10 companies in the world that have the capability that's required,” said Fronk.

Couple launches recruiting agency WITH THE prospect of large industrial projects requiring workers and local people looking for work, Michael Stokes and Adrienne Weget believe they've found a solution. The young couple has formed Skeena Labour Contracting Ltd., a local company to provide connections between workers and projects. Stokes says the idea came to him while working as a labourer on one of the projects to clear the right-of-way for the Pacific Trails Pipeline, the natural gas pipeline that would feed

the planned ChevronApache Kitimat LNG plant at Kitimat. “Terrace needs a recruiting agency and with my background in construction and Adrienne's in human resources, we have what's needed to start a homebased business,” Stokes explained. “There are so many new companies in the area, and not necessarily big ones, we know there is a demand for our services.” “What we really want to do is get people to the work that's out there,” said Stokes.

“We know there are local workers out there who want to work and that's our business – to bridge the gap,” said Stokes. He said the important part of their plan is to introduce workers to employers. “If there's a young guy out there we can set up, even something short term, they've gained that experience,” Stokes continued.

Northmen dominate Seafest THE TERRACE Northmen went undefeated at the annual Seafest rugby tournament in Prince Rupert two weeks ago, a triumph which included one crucial league play shutout against the Prince George Gnats. The Northmen took it to the Gnats 26-0 Saturday, June 14. “But it was a way closer game than the score indicated,” said Northman Adam Linteris. “We probably spent 90 per cent of the time between our 22 yard lines.” But the team was able to capitalize on brief openings, and benefitted from weeks spent working with coach Mike Homeniuk on weaknesses they’d noticed after their last league game against the Williams Lake Rustlers. “The game just really went well. Everything was clicking. Our coach, Mike Homeniuk, really got us dialed in for this one,” said Linteris, noting Homeniuk had them working on support and rucking, both areas which were “spot on” during the game. Jamie McKinstrie won back of the game, with Ryan Watson taking home forward of the game. Prince George is “a pretty big and powerful team, but we kind of

nullified their team with our support and we have such a fast team that as soon as there’s any openings whatsoever we tend to run the ball, so it was good. We were making up lots of yards when we could break the line, but like I was saying they’re quite a big team.” And they’ll have to meet that big team again July 4, the first game of a two day road trip which will wrap up regular season play. The Northmen are currently sitting at one win and one tie, and need to win both games on the road – the first against Prince George and the second against Williams Lake July 5 – to qualify for provincials. “It’s a physically brutal weekend,” said Linteris. “For us the key to that is making sure we can rally all of the boys together and get as many people out there as we can. Last year (when the team travelled on a similar road trip) we probably went down with 16 or 17, and after the first game, I don’t even think we had a full team the next day due to injuries.” The team is looking to keep the momentum going from this win and at least “make those other teams work for it,” said Linteris.

Terrace team to compete on the Amazing Race Canada TWO FITNESS-CONSCIOUS entrepreneurs who call Terrace home have been tapped to compete on the reality show The Amazing Race Canada. Siblings Suhki Atwal, 31, and Jinder Atwal, 26, are one of the 11 teams who made the cut to appear on the reality show’s second season. The show sees teams of two people who have some sort of relationship to each other jetset around the country – and this season, potentially the world – performing tasks and challenges in a race to the finish

line. Other competitors this season include Olympians Natalie Spooner and Meaghan Mikkelson of Canada’s national women’s hockey team. Their bio for the show describes them as “fierce, competitive, and very determined,” and the pair have said their motto is: “We will do whatever it takes! We are here to win! We got this!” “They are inspired by their father’s immigration from India to Terrace, B.C. with no money and no English vocabulary,” reads the show bio.

“He simply wanted to build a life of opportunity for his future children.” The show plays up the pair’s ambitious nature and entrepreneurial spirit, noting they have “ambitions to conquer the world.” “This successful duo strives to maintain a typical sibling relationship with sarcasm, rivalry, and competition. Jinder claims he will be completing challenges while his sister sits on the sidelines, which she of course vehemently denies.”

New bus service will bring more Kitimatians to Shames By CAMERON ORR RATHER THAN continue handing $15,000 over to Shames Mountain’s co-op in Terrace this year, Kitimat city council has opted to develop a bus service to bring Kitimatians to the mountain. The plan was initiated by Councillor Phil Germuth who during budget deliberations managed to get the annual $15,000 grant given to the ski hill on hold until Kitimat could explore options to instead use that money for transportation. The debate which took place on June 16 was split among two motions, the first being from Mario Feldhoff who moved to give the mountain the $15,000 as the town has done over the past few years. However that motion failed in a tie with Edwin Empinado, Rob Goffinet and Phil Germuth opposed. The motion which eventually passed was for the District

SHAMES COULD be saying “Welcome” to more folks from Kitimat thanks to a new bus service. to develop a bussing plan based on administration’s report which called for the use of a chartered 48 passenger coach bus, at a $1,642.50 cost per trip including chaperons and other costs. It’s yet to be decided how much or if a fee will still apply to

riders. The staff had suggested a $40 charge for adults and $25 for people under 18. For 18 trips — representing the 18 Saturdays the mountain would be open for during their open season — that would be approximately $30,000 for the

whole season. Despite the spirited debate for their first motion which failed in a split, all councillors opted to stand behind the bus service in a vote. “I think we have an opportunity here to initiate something that may turn out to be a wild success,” said Phil Germuth. Germuth said industries also have an opportunity to pitch in financial support to the plan. To the first motion Feldhoff said the $15,000 is not a major amount of money. “We would be giving a small share for the benefit of all Kitimatians who choose to go downhill skiing.” But later for the bus motion he said “If it helps increase the recreational opportunities that’s good.” At $15,000 only eight or nine actual trips could be afforded to the mountain based on cost estimates, and without knowing usage staff could not define a return rate if they charged fees for the travel.

Street-legal races a major hit By KEVIN CAMPBELL THE TERRACE Drag Race Association (TDRA) was banking on having a few gearheads wanting to race each other with their everyday cars for their first meet of the season earlier in June. Turns out there's a load of them. Thirty-five entrants signed up for the June 6 Street Legal races and Chris Roesel walked

away with first-place after beating all of his challengers in the bracketed setup. Chris Sweet took second. Sunday's winners for the Summer Classics competition included Jeremiah Wiebe from Terrace (first in Pro-class), with Houston's Ken Kaperlari taking second. Super Pro saw Kitimat's Harley Bell take top honours, followed by Terrace's Paul Soares

’ve come to appreciate a mountain as an extension of my back yard, especially now that there is such a fine system of trails on it now. I’ve been hiking the mountain for 35 years, first by myself, then with Chimo, whose bones lie buried next to the raspberry patch in my backyard, after that with Pawsome, whose ashes we tossed over Herman Creek Pool two years ago, and now with Oona, who instantly knows a walk up the mountain is imminent and turns into a pup when I emerge from the house wearing my hiking boots and grab the staff I bought in the Alberta Badlands the summer before last. While on a mission to China Tire in search for a new garden hose recently, I spied camp stools. They were on sale, whatever that means nowadays, when everything is perpetually on sale. They were six bucks. When I walk and fish the wide bouldered bars of the Skeena every summer, I like to rest my aged bones on a log and tuck into a sandwich midday. The problem is there’s often no log. Anticipating this, I began packing in a folding lawn chair across the shingles and a solitary can of beer so the drink container in the arm of the chair wouldn’t go to waste. This proved better than no chair but the chair, despite its carrying bag, was awkward on trips that required bushwhacks. These tiny

It was low, but just the correct height to allow me to read the music I spread at my feet without glasses. After using the application on my mobile to tune up, I began warming up with scale patterns and arpeggios. Perched atop a 100 foot cliff. I looked over a green sea of tree tops undulating in response to the wind pushing up the valley irrigated by the headwaters of Howe Creek. Oona lay outstretched on a hot slab of granite, tongue hanging out, panting. As I played through Los Suenos, The Dreams, a raven flew up the gorge high above the trees. It spotted us and made a right angle turn to fly directly overhead then made an 180 degree turn, before vanishing into the brush and rocks on the far side where it shouted the results of its reconnaissance to the rest of the unkindness. A chorus of barking and croaking loud enough to startle Oona rattled about on the canyon walls for what seemed a long time then died down as abruptly as it had started. No lovers of Latin music, or possibly my rendition of it, there apparently, I thought. After an hour, I folded up my new stool and stashed it for next time. It was as if it’s designers had intended it to be used to serenade ravens from cliff tops.

Finally, Web Bennett, the Cultural Coordinator at Kitselas Canyon, will speak about the waves of settlers and pre-emptors in the late 1800s and early 1900s in relation to the Gitselasu.

Series gives development context “IS TERRACE a small town any longer? I don’t think so,” said Terrace resident Mary Little. “It’s in the very awkward stage of not being a small cozy cooperative communicative town.” Surprisingly, this sentiment was not expressed last week or even last month, in response to the overwhelming number of both workers and proposed industrial projects. Rather, it was stated during an interview in 1978, raising questions about how Terrace has coped with waves of development and expansion in the past, and how those waves have mirrored and deviated from what is happening in our region today. At Heritage Park Museum, this year’s Summer Lecture Series will frame the current wave of industrial development in a regional historical context. At 7:00 p.m. this evening, Wednesday, June 25th, Mercedes DuBois, a Master’s student at UNBC, will kick off the series with a talk entitled ‘Military and Mutiny: Terrace in the Second World War.’ She will speak about small-town Terrace’s experience with thousands of soldiers during the Second World War.

the construction of a town/ industrial project, and a military installation will allow the people of Terrace to frame what is going on currently in a historical context.
