City rivalry heats up over ‘living flag’ Drew McLachlan News staff
As Victoria prepares for Canada Day, the city’s annual “living flag” celebration returns – along with some friendly rivalry from Winnipeg. Comprised of 1,500 to 2,500 people, all dressed in red and white and in the form of a Canadian flag, the living flag first appeared on the B.C. legislature lawn in 2006. The concept was originally pitched by city councillor and former Downtown Victoria Business Association director Charlayne Thornton-Joe, who said the living flag has proven to be one of the most popular events of Canada Day, growing from 325 to 2,500 participants in eight years.
While Victoria may have the claim to the longest running living flag, the record for largest belongs to Winnipeg, which weaved its flag of 3,500 participants last year. “We were inspired by Victoria [in 2011], so we issued a challenge to them to beat their numbers from the year prior,” said Jason Syvixay, Downtown Winnipeg BIZ managing director. “It’s that kind of friendly, nation-wide challenge we take a lot of pride in.” Living flags have since formed across the country, with Ottawa, Calgary, Langley, and Brandon, Man. all constructing their own this year. Syvixay’s confident his city will still hold the record come Canada Day, and that moving the event to the newly constructed Canadian Museum for Human Rights
will draw even larger numbers than last year. “We’re eager and ready to come out and defend our title again,” Syvixay said. “We’ve done it the last three years and we’ll be able to do it July 1 is Canada Day, and again.” we want to know how you

Victoria has time zone advantage Continued from Page A1
Victoria’s edge in the competition is the time zone difference, as organizers learn the numbers of eastern cities’ flags before assembling its own. While Winnipeg may be focussed on numbers, Thornton-Joe pegged reducing the flag’s environmental footprint as a primary focus this year. Organizers hope participants can be encouraged to bring their own red and white shirts by allowing them to take “prime spots” in the flag by skipping the shirt line, though 1,500 shirts will still be printed, courtesy of Coast Capital Savings. Though ThorntonJoe doesn’t expect the numbers to be much higher than last year’s, she isn’t too concerned with setting new records. “As much as we love friendly competition, we’re happy just to see people check it out,” she said. The living flag will begin assembling at 12:30 p.m. and be finished by 2 p.m. Participation is open to everyone. T:12”

Olympic medalist Hayley Wickenheiser to play charity game in Esquimalt
Gas leak forces evacuation
Drew McLachlan News staff
One of the biggest names in women’s hockey, four-time gold medalist Hayley Wickenheiser, will be hitting the road for a charity street hockey game in Esquimalt. Hosted by Country Grocer as part of its Islanders for Islanders summer campaign, the game will take place on July 1 in the rear parking lot of the Archie Browning Sport Centre from 4 to 6 p.m., following two games in Nanaimo and Cobble Hill. Wickenheiser will be available for photos and autographs at the event, which will feature, along with street hockey, a barbecue and music. The event is by donation, with proceeds going to Macaulay School. The game marks Wickenheiser’s first visit to the Island since 2010, when she played in a lead-up game for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games against the U.S. “I’m really excited to come out to the Island again,” Wickenheiser said. “It’s always fun to hear the stories and just see the kids. They always remind you of the fun of hockey and why we all started playing.” Wickenheiser began her professional hockey career at the age of 15, when she was added to the national women’s team’s roster as a forward for the 1994 World Championship. Since then, she’s risen to global prominence as part of Canada’s Olympic team, which she has played for since its introduction as a medal sport in 1998, when she helped Team Canada win the first silver medal. Wickenheiser was named alternate captain for the subsequent Olympic Games, and has helped lead Team Canada to the top of the podium four times, most recently in the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympic Games where she was also chosen to be the flag bearer during the opening ceremonies. Her dedication to the national pastime was officially

The Esquimalt Fire Department was called at 8 a.m. and evacuated two apartment buildings, at 837 and 855 Ellery St., with assistance from the Victoria Police Department and Emergency Social Services. Due to the teachers’ strike, there were no students in Esquimalt High. The gas line was repaired by 9:30 a.m. and residents were told they could return to their homes.
recognized in 2011, when she received the Order of Canada to commemorate her role in furthering women’s hockey around the globe. Outside of the rink, Wickenheiser has been active in community outreach, particularly with youth. In 2007, she travelled to Rwanda alongside a team of Canadian Olympians with the athletics-based humanitarian organization Right to Play. She worked with the organization again in 2011, when she visited Ghana along with her son. She’s also worked with youth through the organizations Spread the Net, KidSport, Classroom Champions, Clean Air Champions, and Because I am a Girl. Her most recent project is the Wickenheiser International Female Hockey Festival, which debuted in 2010 in Burnaby. “I think it’s a big thing to encourage kids to dream and pursue something,” Wickenheiser said. reporter@vicnews.com
Blood donors needed for O’s, A’s Blood donors are urged to help refill the national blood supply before Canada Day. All blood donors are needed, in particular those with type O and A blood. According to the Canada Safety Council website, more fatalities occur on Canadian roads during the summer months than any other time of year, and 85 per cent of these collisions are considered preventable. It can take up to 50 donors to help save the life of someone in a car crash. To book an appointment download the GiveBlood app, visit blood.ca or call 1-888-236-6283.
Hayley’s charities n KidSport – As well as raising funds for KidSport through the Wickenheiser International Female Hockey Festival, Wickenheiser has worked as a mentor at several of the organization’s community events. n Plan Canada – Wickenheiser helped the organization launch the Because I am a Girl campaign, and currently serves as a spokesperson for their community sponsorship of Hatibhanda, Bangladesh. n Spread the Net – After visiting Rwanda, Wickenheiser decided to become an ambassador for this organization, which aims to provide bug nets for malaria-stricken areas. n Clean Air Champions – Alongside other athletes, Wickenheiser has participated in youth street hockey events, and promoted the organization’s agenda of healthy living and environmentalism as a spokesperson.

City workers save a ton of greenhouse gas
Take a bow City of Victoria, you’re as green as green can be. During the National Commuter Challenge, which ran June 2 to 6, a team of city staffers left their own cars at home and biked, walked, took transit or carpooled in to work. As a result of these sustainable transportation choices, more than one tonne of greenhouse gases were prevented. The City of Victoria won the Most Green-
house Gases Avoided award for the top organization in B.C., outside of Metro Vancouver. The city also logged the highest participation rate for an organization in Greater Victoria, representing 52 per cent of all Commuter Challenge participants in the Capital Region. The team of 121 staff also placed second at the national level, for Canadian cities with populations under 100,000.

Where learning at the landfill meets fun!
Do you know where the ‘stuff ’ you throw away goes? Over 850 residents of the Capital Regional District saw for themselves where their “away” is at last Sunday at the Open House at Hartland landfill and recycling facility. For the past several years, Hartland Happening, a semi-annual open house, has offered a behind-the-scenes look at the region’s award-winning, multipurpose facility. This year’s Hartland Happening welcomed visitors from 10:30 am until 2 pm on Sunday, June 22. Activities included a free shuttle to the event from Camosun College, guided tours, interactive exhibits, a giant sandbox, face painting and a monster machine area. Mr. Tube Steak was on hand to barbecue hot dogs and veggie dogs that were free to event guests. Cash and non-perishable food items were collected for local charities. Hartland receives garbage from across the region, processing more than 450 tonnes per day. “I’ve lived twenty minutes away from the landfill most of my life and I’ve never given much thought to where it ends up. Knowing that so much effort goes in to making it a safe and sustainable site makes me proud of living in the capital region,” explains a Saanich resident. The CRD thanks its community supporters, and all the businesses and volunteers that made this year’s event a success.

The cries of the seagulls overhead were joined by chanting and the swish of cedar boughs during a series of ceremonies held Tuesday afternoon to bless the third phase of native murals attached to the Unity Wall at the Ogden Point breakwater. Linda Modeste and daughter-in-law Marilyn Olsen conducted the traditional blessing on the breakwater while at the same time on shore, Mary Anne Thomas and Elmer George were blessing the interpretive panels for the murals. The phase three murals illustrate the significance and signing of the Douglas Treaties, founding of Victoria and the establishment of Esquimalt.

Linda Modeste, right, and daughter-in-law Marilyn Olsen perform a ceremony with cedar boughs to bless the Ogden Point breakwater and the third phase of murals that have been placed on the sides of the breakwater. and how that interaction created Victoria. The blessing ceremony and dancing and
singing from the Esquimalt Singers and Dancers was followed by speeches from a variety
of tribal and political dignitaries, including TITANIUM TENTS Esquimalt Chief Andy Thomas and Songhees Chief Ron Sam. Young artist Brianna Dick was one of several who worked on the murals. She told TITANIUM theTENTS crowd telling them how the project had brought back her passion for art, a passion she’d felt she lost due to other circumstances in her life. Dick also said she hoped that people viewing the murals would ask questions about the images, queries that would lead to understanding about the events and issues depicted. The final event of the afternoon was a traditional food burning ceremony that honours and cares for ancestors of the First Nations’ traditional lands. A “table” of firewood and a variety of food was set up for that ceremony. photos@vicnews.com

Skin reaction a call for education
Hogweed, cow parsnip have major differences Don Descoteau News staff
Two boys who developed a skin reaction from a plant species they were clearing near their school earlier this month can feel lucky it wasn’t giant hogweed. The plants in question, which had grown in a Garry oak meadow, turned out to be cow parsnip, or Heracleum maximum. It’s a native species and member of the carrot family that has mild photoreactive properties, meaning its secretions can cause minor irritation or blistering in people with more sensitive skin. Cow parsnip, although generally much smaller and featuring different physical characteristics, resembles giant hogweed. That invasive species contains a highly toxic sap on its leaves and stem hairs which can cause hypersensitivity to the sun if contacted on the skin. Both have umbrella-like clusters of white flowers at the end of long stems, but the leaves are different and hogweed can grow to five or six metres high, compare to a maximum of about two metres for cow parsnip.
Photos courtesy Coastal Invasive Species Committee
The leaves of the giant hogweed, left, are distinctly serrated, while those of the native cow parsnip, right, tend to be threepronged, almost like a maple leaf.
I am nominating Hardeep on behalf of a BC Ferries customer who just called to compliment him for going out of his way to help her. The customer was travelling to her doctor’s appointment for her chemotherapy treatment. She had been quite ill with pneumonia, and fell asleep in her vehicle with the lights left on while waiting for the ferry. Her car battery ran low and she required a boost. Hardeep immediately looked after this and continued to check on her while she was onboard to make sure she was alright. The customer said he was deserving of “5 stars”.

discomfort, she said the incident – and the time of year – provide a good opportunity to learn the difference between cow parsnip and the giant hogweed, and to identify other invasive species or potentially harmful plants. “I think the message here is that not all plants are created equal,” she said. “It’s important, as part of environmental education and to know for yourself, about certain types of plants.” Private property owners are responsible for taking care of their own land, McElroy said. On public land, the various municipal and regional jurisdictions, working with Coastal ISC contractors, have combined to do a good job of controlling hogweed in the region, she said. While her group fields many calls at this time of year from people either reporting hogweed or asking questions about what they might have Parmar discovered, most often the plant in question is cow parsnip or one of several similar looking native plants. For more information on differences between the plants visit coastalisc.com and click on invasive species, or call 250-8572472.
Rachelle McElroy is executive director with the Coastal Invasive Species Committee, which works with municipal and regional jurisdictions to combat invasive species here. She said one of their subcontractors visited the school and treated the plants with a herbicide, a rare move given that cow parsnip is native, but one taken due to the reaction it caused.

Flame-throwers, jugglers and acrobats – oh, my Buskers ready to entertain at annual downtown festival Daniel Palmer News staff
Final preparations are underway for Victoria’s most attended festival of the year when dozens of street performers wow tens of thousands of onlookers in downtown Victoria. The 10-day Victoria International Buskers Festival takes over Government Street, Bastion Square, Ship Point and – new this year – the lower Wharf Street parking lot and the Royal B.C. Museum grounds to showcase jugglers, acrobats, musicians and francophone culture starting July 18. “People are usually surprised when I tell
them there’s around 400 hours of programming that goes into this, when you consider all the stages and busker stops,” said John Vickers, executive director of the festival. Buskers include magicians, acrobats, jugglers, flame throwers, musicians and actors, as well as headlining all-stars like Australia-based fire troupe Flame Oz, five-time Guinness world record holder Victor Rubilar (Argentina) and hula hoop queen Becky Hoops (Montreal). “We feel we had around 200,000 attendees last year,” Vickers said. “Deuce Days was here, and that helped, but it just seemed full-
on non-stop for 10 days. I think this year if we can hold our own as good as last year, we’ll be ecstatic.” Vickers said the festival is a collaboration between tourism partners, as the Hotel Association of Greater Victoria provides more than 200 room nights at no charge to house buskers each year. “We do a lot of surveys with audiences and last year, over 60 per cent of U.S. residents said they’d come
back this year. That’s a great sign,” he said. Capping off the festival is an all-stars performance on the lawns of the Fairmont Empress Hotel, July 27 at 5 p.m. Vickers teased it as an hour and a half extravaganza of favourite performers from years past and present.

It’s all about the money Very few parents would have expected last fall that their children’s school year would be over by just the second week of June. Yet that’s the case, as negotiations between the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association and the B.C. Teachers have hit a stalemate, and classes likely won’t return until fall. The two sides remain far apart on wages, benefits and classroom issues. BCPSEA’s latest offer includes a $1,200 signing bonus for an agreement by the end of the school year, and a series of wage increases up to May 2019 that includes “economic stability dividend” amounts depending on B.C.’s economic performance. The BCTF wants a $5,000 signing bonus followed by increases of 3.5 per cent in the first year and 1.5 per cent in each of the next three years, for a total raise of eight per cent plus compounding, which brings it closer to 12 per cent – double what any other public service union has accepted this year. As the BCTF and some members of the public maintain, “it’s not all about money,” and in some respects, that’s true. The BCTF also wants reduction in class sizes and changes to composition, with more special needs support. The harsh reality is in the costs. The BCPSEA has calculated the current teachers’ wages and benefits demands to be worth $211 million in year five. Expanded preparation time for teachers would add another $90-million plus. And the price tag on the union’s position on class size and composition? The BCPSEA puts that at $1.67 billion – a 30-plus per cent increase on the entire B.C. annual education budget of about $5 billion. Ultimately, it does become all about the money.

Integrity starts at the top Re: Year-end strike is unethical (Our View, June 18) The year end strike is not unethical. The teachers, parents and students wouldn’t be in this predicament if years ago the government had provided the teachers the support they have always asked for and need. I am a parent of a child with learning disabilities. If you have never spent time volunteering in a classroom then you really have no idea the struggles teachers have to teach the curriculum and trying to meet each child’ s learning needs. When our child was in elementary the biggest problem was the large class size and the number of children with disruptive behaviours that continually interrupted the learning for all children in the class. These distractions took away time for individual attention each child needs to meet their education rights. The teachers need assistants to help in class and provide the help to that struggling child or they will fall through the cracks. Many children go undiagnosed as ours was until Grade 5. We placed him in middle school early and had him diagnosed to find out his strengths and weakness.
It is through this testing that an individual education plan was made. My point is that each class has five to six students with IEPs. My question is who does the teacher teach: the student with the learning disability, the middle students or those students who are extremely gifted scholastically? If they don’t have the support then all the students lose out one way or the other. Teachers do the best they can with what they have but they are taxed emotionally, physically and psychologically. At the beginning of each school year, teachers are given a number of files of IEP’s. Teachers work hard to meet the needs of these challenged students and I am sure there are a few teachers who are overwhelmed by the numbers and don’t know where to begin because there isn’t the support they need. Our son was fortunate to have had a few incredible teachers while at Vic High who understood his struggles and took him under their wings. Our son graduated with honours from Vic High due the dedication of the hard working teachers that touched his life. You stated that the student is
Last Week
we asked you:
the biggest loser as the province and the teacher’s union continues spitting at each other. You are absolutely right. If the government provided extra classroom support, reduced the class size and paid them for all the extra curricular activities and support they provide our students, we wouldn’t be in this situation in the first place. But don’t forget that when Christy Clark got in for a second term she was going to give her caucus a raise. Shouldn’t the teachers get the raise first as they have worked for the government longer? If anything thing is unethical, how ethical is it for the government in 2002 to slash millions from the public school budget? Is it ethical to deny special needs students the support they need? How ethical is it to ignore court rulings? How ethical is it to force the teachers to strike as they did in the last rounds of negiotations? Integrity starts at the top. I feel let down by the lack of mentorship our government has provided for our students and our teachers. My final grade for the government is an F! Carrie Hryciuk Esquimalt

Not all happy with happy hour Pub operators told must charge minimum price The B.C. government has begun allowing “happy hour” discounts for alcoholic drinks, imposing minimum drink prices that force some outlets to raise their prices. Effective last week, the minimum price for draft beer or cider in B.C. is 25 cents per fluid ounce, which puts a 12-ounce sleeve at $3, a 20-ounce pint at $5 and a 60-ounce jug at $15. Using a one-ounce minimum, the lowest permitted price for any
alcoholic drink is $3. The release of the regulations was greeted with protests from some pubs that were offering drink specials below that price. The regulations also give licensed restaurants the ability to serve drinks without a food order, although their licence still requires them to offer a full food menu. The B.C. government’s liquor policy review also levels the field between pubs and restaurants by allowing families with children into pubs at mealtimes. The B.C. Restaurant and Foodservices Association issued a statement reminding its members that the new rules also
LETTERS Assessments need fixing Re: Property tax bump hard to swallow (Letters, June 18) I feel the writer’s pain. I too live in Victoria West, and my property tax climbed 9.8 per cent this year. Of some two dozen houses sold in Vic West in 2013, four were sold for an average 22 per cent more than their assessments. Apparently those four had been assessed too low; I should like to have seen their assessments lifted to their sale prices and the rest of us left alone. Under standard assessment methodology, however, the four exceptionals inflated the average market value of the two dozen sold, and thus the assessments of all the houses in Vic West. That is all right to a point, but I can’t afford to see it recur. When buyers pay more than assessed value, it usually means there is a suite or extension the assessors didn’t know about, or that the property has been adapted for a business use. My concern is that the city, perhaps in a bid to create more rental housing and encourage small business, has become too lax with bylaw enforcement. This is how good intentions can yield bad results, at the expense of neighbourhoods like Vic West which are diverse, tolerant, and
not so likely to push back. An antidote is to voluntarily disclose to B.C. Assessment the income-producing uses of our homes, so that they can make assessments that jibe with market value. David Bodenberg Victoria

Help Prevent Heart Attacks with Vitamin C and Lysine Powder W. Gifford-Jones, MD
W
hy is heart attack the number one killer in this country? Ninety-nine percent of doctors say it’s due to atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries) and that cholesterol lowering drugs are the primary way to treat it. But I suggest cardiologists have closed minds and are ignoring facts that could save thousands of North Americans from coronary attack. Vitamin C is required to manufacture healthy collagen, the glue that holds coronary cells together, just like mortar is needed for bricks. Lysine, like steel rods in cement, makes collagen stronger. Two-time Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Linus Pauling reported twenty-five years ago it takes a mere 10 milligrams to prevent scurvy, but several thousand to prevent heart attack. Williams Stehbens, Professor of Anatomy at Wellington University in New Zealand, proved Pauling was right. Stebhens’ research showed that coronary arteries closest to the heart are under the greatest pressure. This causes collagen to fracture resulting in the formation of a blood clot and death.
I also believed the research of Pauling and Stehbens irrefutable. Now, the work of Dr. Bush has convinced me my decision was prudent. But to take large doses of vitamin C and lysine requires swallowing many pills daily. It’s a tall order for those who dislike swallowing one pill. So for several years I’ve been trying to find a company that would manufacture a combination of vitamin C and lysine powder. Now Medi-C Plus™ is available at health food stores and specialty pharmacies. The dosage for the Medi-C Plus combination is one flat scoop mixed with water or juice with breakfast and the evening meal. Those at greater risk should take one flat scoop three times a day. This column does not recommend that those taking CLDs should stop them. That is a decision that can only be made by patients and doctors. As for me – I bet my life on vitamin C and lysine! I turned 90 this year.
Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, has now proven that vitamin C can reverse atherosclerosis. Bush took retinal photographs, then started his patients on high doses of vitamin C and lysine. One year later additional pictures showed atherosclerosis had regressed in retinal arteries. Sixteen years ago following my own coronary attack, cardiologists claimed it was sheer madness for me to refuse cholesterol-lowering drugs. Instead, I decided to take high doses of vitamin C plus lysine with breakfast and the evening meal. I knew that Dr. Graveline, a physician and NASA astronaut, had twice developed transient global amnesia from taking cholesterol lowering drugs (CLD’s). I was also aware that patients have died from CLDs. Others have developed kidney, liver and muscle complications.

Even the untrained eye can see kimonos are great works of art, but to the trained eye, each kimono tells a story. This summer, two exhibitions at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria will showcase dozens of historical kimonos and tell their stories. From Geisha to Diva: The Kimonos of Ichimaru returns to Victoria after travelling North America for more than a decade, most recently at the Textile Museum of Canada. This extremely rare and prized collection, which was donated to the AGGV, once belonged to Ichimaru (1906-1997) one of the most famous geishas of the 20th century. Ichimaru’s story, which includes becoming a recording artist in the 1930s, is presented through her magnificent kimonos and personal belongings. Combining her experience as a geisha with an extraordinary talent as a vocalist and musician, she became a unique figure in the social history of modern Japan. From Geisha to Diva opens alongside Kimono: the Japanese Culture in its Art Form on June 27 and both exhibitions run through Oct. 19. “The details and features that characterize kimono culture are not
well known in the Western world,” says Kimono guest curator Hitomi Harama. “To understand the true beauty of the kimono, knowledge of its unwritten code is essential.” The sleeve length, material, colours and design, all speak to whether the person who wore it was married or single, their age, gender, class, as well as what season the kimono was for. Kimono showcases codes, artistic forms and complexities of kimono culture, along with the etiquette of kimono attire for different seasons and occasions. “The exhibition will include both my family’s and local Victoria resident’s collections,” says Harama, whose family has operated Owmiya, a high-end kimono business for more than 85 years. “All of my family’s collections have been shipped from Japan.” Kimono also contains a digital component to display valuable Kimono examples physically unavailable for display at this time.

HarbourCats tops in attendance Baseball club averaging 1,457 fans per game Victoria fans love their HarbourCats and baseball. Going into last Monday’s home game against the Bend Elks, the Victoria HarbourCats led the West Coast League in average attendance with 1,457 per game (six home games). All WCL regular season home games so far have been weeknight games, as the team’s schedule is heavy on weekend games, and five afternoon games to come, when the schedule moves to July and August. “We think that number can grow with the way
our schedule is shaped in the last half of the season,” said general manager Jim Swanson. “We believe that with this market, with the support of the City of Victoria and the facility we play in, and with hard work and creativity in our marketing efforts, it’s possible for our support to reach 2,000 or more per game on average.” The HarbourCats have 18 home games remaining, and the season-high crowd to date was a Tuesday, the 3,038 on opening night. The second highest attendance in the league belongs to the Medford Rogues at 1,426 per game, while the Kitsap BlueJackets hold the worst attendance at 426 per game.

Quick Specs and Pricing: Sticker price: Lincoln MKC Premiere (2.0L): $39,940 Lincoln MKC Select (2.0L): $42,200 Lincoln MKC Reserve (2.0L): $47,700 Lincoln MKC Reserve (2.3L): $49,650 Power: 2.0-litre I4 turbo, 16-valve, DOHC with variable timing: 240 horsepower @ 5500 rpm Fill-up: 2.0-litre city/highway fuel economy: 12.4/9.0 L/100km (EPA estimated) Power: 2.3-litre I4 turbo, 16-valve, DOHC with variable timing: 285 horsepower @ 5500 rpm Fill-up: 2.3-litre city/highway fuel economy: 12.9/9.2 L/100km (EPA estimated)
Question of the Week Bob McHugh in his review of the Lincoln MKC reveals there is a new technology called “park out assist” which gets your vehicle out of the tight parking sport that the “park assist” shoehorned you into! Is this kind of technology in danger of diminishing a driver’s control skills? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

Safety Tip: As the summer BBQ season and Canada Day celebrations kick off, it’s important to remember how deadly of a combination drinking and driving can be. Arrange for a designated driver or use other options to get home safely.

They are Miata mates for life ‘‘ Despite the relatively early call time, a group of almost 100 Mazda Miata/MX-5 drivers/passengers gathers for the morning’s meeting. The weather is looking favourable even though the a.m. envelops the crowd with its chilliness. It’s not raining though. That’s a good sign. Tour organizer and former Trillium Miata Club president, Gary Svoboda, talks about the day’s journey, addresses some basic housekeeping rules, makes some jokes and engages in witty banter with a group of excited Miata enthusiasts. Everyone is ready to hit the roads of Vermont in their tiny, drop top, two-doors. Everything from first generations Miatas, to the latest and greatest rear-wheel drive roadsters line the gravel parking lot of our home base, also known as the Stowehof Inn. Stowe, VT’s claim to fame is as a ski destination. Currently, its claim to fame is the 46 Mazdas that drove in from Ontario and are congregating for their annual tour. Each May long weekend, a group of club members look forward to the event. It’s been going for over 20 years and hasn’t disappointed. The crowd gets rowdier by the minute so go-time is just around the corner. The meeting wraps up; we branch into our respective groups and fire up the engines. As honorary members for the event, my co-pilot – aka my mother
Zsuzsanna Straub – and I get behind the wheel of our MX-5. Within moments, we’re topless. The car. Not us! Seven vehicles comprise a group, including a leader and a sweeper. We’re comfortably nestled in the bosom of the pack. Our job is to enjoy ourselves, as well as give the MX-5 a little bit of room to romp free. It’s hard not to smile on the undulating roads of Vermont, which are lined with trees, houses, fields and topped off with a bovine scent! Then there is what is called “The Notch.” A mountain road where emaciated limbs of indigenous trees
look like they’re reaching out and trying to touch the cars. Boulders are scattered and the path is paved around it. The intermittent obstacles would likely be the outcome of two Greek gods having a rock fight. You would have to have superhuman strength to move them. The sinuous and slender road is a hoot to drive through especially with no one in front of you. The occasional crackling on the CB radios frequently is overpowered by instructions from the leader. Like a mother duck summoning her young, we followed in order. We stuck together and took in some breathtaking scenery of New
Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5.
England. Scenery aside, what was the most interesting to breathe in was the enthusiasm and energy of the Miata owners. Liz Burns has “Miatatude” stickered across her windshield. Miata earrings dangle from her ears as she professes her love of her emerald beauty. Another owner decided to turn his conventional doors into ones that open up not out. At breakfast, lunch and dinner, they regale each other with stories of other events they’ve been on. Outbursts of laughter perk up the ears of bystanders; making them wish they were at that table reliving the memories. The camaraderie of those young and young at heart is undisputable. Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5. Liz was one of the first members of the Trillium Miata Club. She expected to join a group of Miata owners and drive with them on weekends. Liz says she “didn’t expect to make friends for 25 years” but she did. And as the Miata/MX-5 turns 25 this year, here’s to another quarter century of promote the best that life has to offer: the bond of mankind and machine, 167 horsepower at a time. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

You need not be a Formula 1 fan to enjoy this computer-generated film about the Red Bull Ring, the location for this coming weekend’s Austrian Grand Prix. It features the man from today’s Driveway cover story – four-time World Champion Sebastian Vettel and Infiniti-Red Bull Racing’s young gun Daniel Ricciardo racing around the track. Driving RB10s, Daniel and Sebastian explain the track’s unique characteristics as they dual around the 4.3
km circuit. As the Red Bull racers contend with changing weather conditions, they explain the circuit’s elevation changes, the four best overtaking opportunities, the track’s nine corners and the four high-speed stretches. In certain sections of the circuit, Sebastian’s RB10 becomes transparent, showing the intricate inner details of his 2014 racecar. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

Celebrating with a Spyder French Open winner, Maria Sharapova, was driven to the glamorous Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) Pre-Wimbledon Party in the Porsche 918 Spyder – the Stuttgart marque’s fastest, most powerful production car to date, and one of the lowest-emitters of CO2 of any class of car. Fresh from his drive in the Le Mans 24 Hours race, Sharapova’s chauffeur for the night was Porsche factory ‘works’ driver, Mark Webber, complete in smart chauffeur attire. The 918 Spyder has a mid-mounted 4.6-litre V8 race engine coupled to two electric motors with lithium-ion batteries. It is a remarkable plug-in hybrid super
sports car that can reach a top speed of 344 km/h, sprint from zero to 100km/h in 2.5 seconds, and yet at 72 g/km (70 g/km with the lightweight Weissach Package) produces so little CO2 that it is exempt from the London Congestion Charge. It has a total power output of 887 hp and holds the current lap record for a production car at the famous Nürburgring race circuit of just 6 minutes 57 seconds. Despite all that performance, its plug-in hybrid technology means a low fuel consumption of 3.0 L/100kms is possible.

Canada Day
Canada a special place for immigrant Daniel Palmer News staff
When Keri Greenidge arrived in Victoria on a rainy, cool evening in July 2007, she was a little puzzled by the weather. The brochures she’d browsed as a curious student from Barbados showed sunny afternoons along the Inner Harbour and at the University of Victoria campus, with lush flowers overflowing from countless hanging baskets. “It was just a cold week, but the weather was such a shock,” says Greenidge, who laughs when she looks back on her first few months in Canada. “I definitely had to learn how to dress with layers.” Seven years later, Greenidge is married and studying to become a Canadian citizen. She’s well-suited for the task as a citizenship training program co-ordinator at the Victoria Immigrant and Refugee Centre Society. Helping newcomers prepare for citizenship, that’s really opened up my eyes to feel more at home. I’m able to connect with the things I see in my day-to-day, and I feel like I understand at the local, provincial and national level. Things don’t feel fuzzy anymore. I feel more of the country because I
understand and can connect with the history,” she says. Greenidge most misses the unreserved nature of Barbados residents, the endless beaches and, most acutely, the food. “We make macaroni pie. It’s like mac and cheese but a little bit more elaborative,” she says enthusiastically. “And then there’s our national dish, cou-cou and flying fish. The best way is to create it as a sauce. It’s amazing.” This year, Greenidge will spend Canada Day as she usually does at Government House, where some of her clients and friends will take the oath of citizenship in the company of Lieut.-Gov. Judith Guichon and officials from Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Later in the evening, she’ll cycle down the Galloping Goose trail to watch the fireworks near the Johnson Street Bridge before heading home with her husband. “Initially, I was always thinking about home and how beautiful it was, and then I went home once at Christmas, and I missed Victoria and it was very strange to have that dawn on me,” she says. “I kept feeling like it was temporary, but now I want to make it really feel like a home.” dpalmer@vicnews.com

Victoria’s Hindu Temple throws open its doors this weekend for the fifth Culture and Arts Festival of India and everyone is invited. Cultural co-ordinator and temple secretary Sri Ganti says they hope to welcome hundreds of people from across Greater Victoria to share in Indian music, movies, dance, history, food and much more. “It’s very festive,” Ganti says. “Many people have been to India and they find it wonderful to come here and be a part of the celebration.” For 15 to 20 minutes on the hour during the festival, Ganti says dancers will perform classic, folk and Bollywood style on stage. Outside the temple, there will be tents featuring cooking demonstrations, Henna tattooing, clothing and more. There is a lunch menu as well. Ganti said the temple is home to 150 families throughout Greater Victoria – adding they are passionate about their heritage. “It’s a small community, but it’s growing.” The Culture and Arts Festival of India is June 28 and 29 at the Victoria Hindu Temple on Cultra Avenue in Central Saanich. The celebration starts at 11 a.m. both days and lasts until 6 p.m.

SELLER’S TIP | Talk to your agent about how they plan to market your home
Real estate agents’ skill set ever expanding Technology allows Realtors various ways to market a home Jennifer Blythe News contributor
Time was, a Realtor’s job was to identify potential homes for clients then guide them through the myriad legal details surrounding the buying and selling of property. Those roles are still there, but technology and clients’ expectations have brought changes that have reshaped the Realtor’s career. “The role of the Realtor has changed, especially in the last 10 or 15 years,” says Tim Ayres, president of the Victoria Real Estate Board. He notes that while much of the Realtor’s job had been information gathering for home shoppers, the Internet now allows people to do much of that legwork themselves. Today, a Realtor’s value is not only in how well-versed they are on the legal ins and outs of home buying and selling, but also in their marketing skills and ability to stay wellinformed about the community in which they’re selling. Examples are trends in the marketplace, demographics, schools, transportation issues, and development plans. Fortunately, Greater Victoria is small enough that Realtors can familiarize themselves quite easily with neighbourhoods from Sooke to Sidney. But Ayres suggests Realtors often find success in focusing on a particular part of the region. This diverse knowledge base is all the more important when working with clients from outside the region, such as those relocating with the military or RCMP, or retirees seeking the promise of mild winters. While the Internet has changed

Getting into the real estate market involves dedication and hard work, not unlike other professions. the Realtor’s role, it’s also dramatically changed the way they do business. Realtors selling a property should be savvy to today’s technology, using video, photography and floor plans to provide prospective buyers with a full picture of a property, for example. “An online presence is key,” Ayres says. “Make sure what you’re doing (to market a property) is what people want to see.” Homes can be viewed via iPad,
prices negotiated by text and contracts reviewed via smart phone. At the same time, there’s a lot to be said for a Realtor’s ability to connect with clients on a personal level. Patrick Skillings has been a Realtor for 30 years, and believes in the time-honoured approach of oneon-one contact with clients, and of being genuinely interested in those he meets – as people, not only the means to a potential sale, he says. While it takes work, maintaining

contact with clients in the years following a home sale or purchase also helps keep connections active and promote word-of-mouth advertising. Skillings points out, for example, that he recently worked with a client he’d helped to buy a home almost three decades earlier. “Clients like the fact that we communicate on a variety of different levels, not just about a particular piece of property,” he says. ddescoteau@vicnews.com

As you might expect, the 2.0L engine gets better fuel economy, but the difference is minimal and both can run on regular grade fuel. All the latest driver-assist technologies are available with MKC including, adaptive cruise control, a collision warning system, blind-sport alert, cross-traffic alert and park assist, with a unique new wrinkle... park-out assist. This added feature can now autonomously steer that MKC out of that tight parallel parking spot into which it put the MKC! Lincoln may be a little late in joining the booming compact luxury utility club, but the MKC is certainly an impressively well put-together new member and it’s priced to sell.

Question of the Week Bob McHugh in his review of the Lincoln MKC reveals there is a new technology called “park out assist” which gets your vehicle out of the tight parking sport that the “park assist” shoehorned you into!

“TJ Hooker” (1979 Dodge St. Regis) The post-“‘Star Trek’ the TV series” and pre-“‘Star Trek’ the Motion Picture” years saw William Shatner in a relatively forgettable cop show that starred perhaps the least believable cop of all time, Heather Locklear. For much of the show’s run, Shatner drove an equally forgettable Malaise-Era Mopar full-size sedan, the Dodge St. Regis. It’s fascinating to see them on the show because few people can remember the last time they saw one on the road — they’re nearly extinct.

“Adam 12” (1972 AMC Matador) Although it was shot in the 1970s, in many ways, “Adam 12” was a throwback to 1950s cop shows in which gangs, heroin dealers and street snitches didn’t exist and officers Reed and Malloy played by Kent McCord and Martin Milner rarely drew their guns, let alone actually capped anyone. In seasons five through seven, they drove an AMC Matador. In actuality, the LAPD was always a strong supporter of underdog American Motors; they owned more than 500 Matador black and whites at one time.

“Hill Street Blues” (1976 Dodge Monaco) The opening title sequence of “Hill Street Blues” with a memorable Mike Post theme song and a gritty look featured several fishtailing Dodge Monacos hightailing it out of the precinct. The Monaco in police surplus trim also served as The Bluesmobile in the film “The Blues Brothers.” “Southland” (1999 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor) No list of great cop cars would be complete without the classic Ford Crown Vic. The last full-size rear-wheeldrive Ford was produced from 1992-2011. The Crown Vic was the most widely used police car and taxi in the U.S. and Canada, and although they’re starting to give way to the Dodge Charger, they still show up in the rearview mirrors of speeders everywhere. continued on page B2

day’s journey, addresses some basic housekeeping rules, makes some jokes and engages in witty banter with a group of excited Miata enthusiasts. Everyone is ready to hit the roads of Vermont in their tiny, drop top, two-doors. Everything
The weather is looking favourable even though the a.m. envelops the crowd with its chilliness. It’s not raining though. That’s a good sign. Tour organizer and former Trillium Miata Club president, Gary Svoboda, talks about the
Six of the best TV cop cars
“The Andy Griffith Show” (1963 Ford Galaxie) The Mayberry Police Department was fond of Fords. I’m partial to the ’63 300 Galaxie with the classic gumball-machine light on the roof. Over the years, fans of the show have built hundreds of loving replicas of Sheriff Andy’s cruiser.
“Highway Patrol” (1956 Buick Special) Perhaps the granddaddy of all TV cop shows, roughhewn Broderick Crawford drove a huge assortment of Oldsmobiles, Buicks and Dodges through the 1955-59 run of the show. I particularly like the ’56 Buick Special.

from first generations Miatas, to the latest and greatest rearwheel drive roadsters line the gravel parking lot of our home base, also known as the Stowehof Inn. Stowe, VT’s claim to fame is as a ski destination. Currently, its claim to fame is the 46 Mazdas that drove in from Ontario and are congregating for their annual tour. Each May long weekend, a group of club members look forward to the event. It’s been going for over 20 years and hasn’t disappointed. The crowd gets rowdier by the minute so go-time is just around the corner. The meeting wraps up; we branch into our respective groups and fire up the engines. As honorary members for the event, my co-pilot – aka my mother Zsuzsanna Straub – and I get behind the wheel of our MX-5. Within moments, we’re topless. The car. Not us! Seven vehicles comprise a group, including a leader and a sweeper. We’re comfortably nestled in the bosom of the pack. Our job is to enjoy ourselves, as well as give the MX-5 a little bit of room to romp free. It’s hard not to smile on the
undulating roads of Vermont, which are lined with trees, houses, fields and topped off with a bovine scent! Then there is what is called “The Notch.” A mountain road where emaciated limbs of indigenous trees look like they’re reaching out and trying to touch the cars. Boulders are scattered and the path is paved around it. The intermittent obstacles would likely be the outcome of two Greek gods having a rock fight. You would have to have superhuman strength to move them. The sinuous and slender road is a hoot to drive through especially with no one in front of you. The occasional crackling on the CB radios frequently is overpowered by instructions from the leader.
Like a mother duck summoning her young, we followed in order. We stuck together and took in some breathtaking scenery of New England. Scenery aside, what was the most interesting to breathe in was the enthusiasm and energy of the Miata owners. Liz Burns has “Miatatude” stickered across her windshield. Miata earrings dangle from her ears as she professes her love of her emerald beauty. Another owner decided to turn his conventional doors into ones that open up not out. At breakfast, lunch and dinner, they regale each other with stories of other events they’ve been on. Outbursts of laughter perk up the ears of bystanders; making them wish they were at that table reliving the mem-
ories. The camaraderie of those young and young at heart is undisputable. Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5. Liz was one of the first members of the Trillium Miata Club. She expected to join a group of Miata owners and drive with them on weekends. Liz says she “didn’t expect to make friends for 25 years” but she did. And as the Miata/MX-5 turns 25 this year, here’s to another quarter century of promote the best that life has to offer: the bond of mankind and machine, 167 horsepower at a time. www.mazda.ca alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

Jaguar offers performance at a ‘bargain’ price Zack Spencer If there is such a thing as an affordable supercar, the 2015 Jaguar F-Type Coupe might just come close. Of course, that is relatively speaking, when compared with the sticker prices of its rivals. This Jag will turn heads, thanks to its styling, and wealthier shoppers will doubtless be in-
the radio/navigation unit is not as quick or precise as I would like. In fact, I missed three turns on our drive route due to the lag in navigation display.
The Lowdon Power: 340hp, 380hp or 550hp Fill-up: 10.4L/7.1L/100km (city/highway base) Sticker price: $72,900-$109,900 terested due to the price. Just as last year’s F-Type convertible won the praises of auto journalists and the buying public, the hardtop version of this sexy car is more engaging, more

powerful and arguably more beautiful. The North American launch for the Coupe was held in California traversing the twisty roads outside Los Angeles on the way to the Willow
Springs racetrack for a thunderous romp around the circuit as fast as my skill would let me.

• Experience the Jayco difference • See a true 4 Season tt, 5w & motorhomes • #1 Selling Trailer in North America • Unpressured Knowledgeable Staff • 2 Year Bumper Hitch Warranty • Best Driving Motorhomes available
Looks The F-Type is sold with three trim levels, the $72,900 base, then the $84,900 S and the top of range R for $109,900. With 340hp, 380hp and a whopping 550hp, respectively, these cars are up on power and down on price when compared to
similar priced/horsepower Porsches. (The one exception is the new 450hp Corvette Stingray that has 450hp and a stunning $55,000 starting price.) What this car has over the competition, and the convertible version, is a sleek body and platform formed entirely from aluminum.

of the coupe is eighty percent greater than the convertible. And a stuff structure is what is needed if you want to make a supercar. The convertible has a 495hp but the coupe is fitted with a 550hp version of the supercharged V8 because the body and chassis has the strength to accommodate such a powerful engine.
Inside Almost every review of the convertible commented on the raspy exhaust note from either the supercharged 3.0L V6 or V8 engines. The S and R models of the coupe also get a sports exhaust that can be made louder or quieter with the press of a button, but the fixed roof of the coupe muted the impact compared to the convertible. On the road to the track event, I drove the supercharged 380hp S model fitted with superb sports seats and leather everywhere that matters, like the doors and dash. The back cargo area is surprisingly big and capable of accommodating two sets of golf clubs. Jaguar has done a superb job of finishing the hatch area with a cover that helps separate the cabin from the trunk area. The three main dials on the centre console are easy to use for heat and air conditioning but
As the trim levels increase in price the added features are not so much about additional luxury items, rather more performance features. As each trim gets more power, there are more aids to help get all that power down to the ground. The S trim gets performance brakes and a mechanical limited slip differential but the R model adds torque vectoring to help steer the car through the corners and an electronic active differential to apply power more precisely to the rear wheels when the driver asks. Ceramic brakes are also an option on the R trim. My instructor at Willow Springs was Davey Jones, who has two Rolex Daytona watches to show for his wins at the 24-hours of Daytona. The R on the track is nothing short of amazing. With such low-end grunt from the supercharged 5.0L V8 engine and endless horsepower, the all-aluminum F-Type just danced in every situation. Willow Springs is a technical track but after a half dozen laps, the powerful cat roared with pleasure in every turn. In performance mode the electronic aids are more forgiving allowing the car to rotate in the corners when pushed hard, the steering is very sharp and the driver can actually get the power down with confidence.
Verdict The Jaguar F-Type Coupe is an expensive machine but in the supercar world is a relative bargain. If you are in the market for a Porsche or other high-end coupe, this Jaguar, especially the R version is a car that demands attention when you look at it and gets respect when you drive it. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

Eye-catching steel at collector car nirvana 1934 Chrysler Airflow
Keith Morgan You didn’t need a bidder’s paddle to enjoy the excitement of the second annual Vancouver Collector Car Show & Auction. More than 650 collector and classic autos descended upon the PNE Fairgrounds this past weekend and another 150 went on the block, many surpassing their reserve bid limits. Speed TV’s Steve Magnante was on hand to move the auction along but the cars were the true stars. Yours truly focussed on the beauties that were for sale, as many of the gems displayed by the car clubs represented at the show will undoubtedly show up in Driveway over the summer season of show and shines. Here are 10 that caught my eye – a photo gallery of the cars mentioned but not published here, can be viewed online at drivewaycanada.ca
1955 Chevrolet 2-door Post Sedan For those who like to make a visual a well as audible impression. No chance of cruising quietly around the neighborhood in this loudly painted Chev with
It’s a piece of art. Check out the unusual grille. It has less than 53,000 miles on the clock and was discovered in a North West garage back in the 1980s.
‘‘
A good friend of mine owns a number of Healeys in various states of (dis)repair and one or two roadworthy examples. Keep hoping he’ll gift me one that’s closer to restoration.
’’
1940 Ford Custom Pickup Not my cup of tea but I may be in the minority judging by the swarming behaviour of the crowd this weekend.
1957 Pontiac Convertible: Really don’t like the coral colour but love everything else about it. It’s a 1957 Star Chief Convertible with a continental kit.
1928 Ford Modified roadster Handsome beast. This 1928 Model A Roadster Custom features a 302 engine from a 1978 Lincoln and its mated to 1978 C4 auto transmission.
2002 BMW M3 It’s a musicmobile judging by the amazing sound system. But it’s no slouch on the non-musical performance front. It has a 3.2L turbo - 525 HP engine.
1932 Ford Roadster the big block 468 CID V8 – 650 hp engine, which is now capable of pushing out 720 horses and a promised 825 at the next tuneup.
1952 Nash I’ve always like the funky look of these cars. They are positively odd but I love’em. There
was another example featuring a matching tow trailer.
1956 Desoto Fireflite Hemi This Desoto is still powered by its original 330 CID Hemi V8! – A marque long gone from production but vividly remembered in the minds of collectors.
Likewise the looks of this Ford Roadster, which has a 350 Chevy Ramjet engine and auto tranny. Built from ground up with brand new parts by Kaotic Customs in Langley.
1967 Austin Healey 3000 Mk 3 The last year of production
for the Austin-Healey 3000, a very popular British sports car built from 1959. A good friend of mine owns a number of Healeys in various states of (dis)repair and one or two
