Huge mineral deposits to provide jobs, royalties

By Tom Fletcher Black Press

One of the biggest copper and gold ore deposits in the world has received an environmental assessment certificate to begin development of a mine near Stewart in northwestern British Columbia. Seabridge Gold’s KSM mine property includes four ore bodies that contain silver and molybdenum as well as gold and copper. The company plans a combination of open-pit and underground mining to extract ore and a pair of tunnels to transport up to 120,000 tonnes a day to a processing area 23 kilometres away. Seabridge expects a construction period spanning 20 years and a mine life of 50 years, with 1,800 construction jobs and more than 1,000 employees to operate the mine. Seabridge chief executive officer Rudi Fronk says the company’s next step is to secure a financing partner, an effort buoyed by the permit and discovery last year of a new ore body with higher copper content. He adds it will take at least two years for a partner to reach a final investment decision. Seabridge has a benefits agreement with the Nisga’a Nation, whose territory was defined by a treaty in 2000, and the province has agreed to a 37.5 per cent share of provincial mineral royalties to be paid to the Nisga’a. Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett says the recent completion of the Northwest Transmission Line to extend the BC Hydro electricity grid to the region made this mine possible, as well as a molybdenum mine at Kitsault and the Red Chris copper-gold project near Dease Lake. “This is one of the biggest mines that have been permitted in the province. It’s on a scale with Highland Valley Copper [near Kamloops], with Fording River or Elkview coal mines in the southeast, major mines that will really make a difference in our economy.” The KSM project still requires federal approval, expected by October. Fronk says the federal review has agreed with the province

Mid Autumn Moon Festival Aug. 16 parts revelry and reverence for one of British Columbia’s oldest and largest ethnic communities. “The struggle and sacrifice of Barkerville’s Chinese community has been recognized as an extraordinary contribution to the forming of B.C. as we know it today,” said Ed Coleman, Barkerville’s chief executive officer. “We are happy to help honour those Chinese miners who travelled to the far side of the world

to work industriously in the goldfields in pursuit of a better life for themselves and their loved ones.” The Chee Kung Tong, the oldest ethnic Chinese structure in Canada, was erected by the Chinese Freemasons in Barkerville to help Chinese miners adjust to the realities of living so far from home, and to act as a hospice of sorts for those community members in need. The Chee Kung Tong was itself declared a National

Historic Site in 2009. “This makes Barkerville unique, in that we are simultaneously a Provincial Historic Site and a National Historic Site with a second National Historic Site within it,” says James Douglas, Barkerville’s Visitor Experiences manager. For more information on Barkerville events, visit www.barkerville.ca/ special_events.htm. For reservations to the Lung Duck Tong Banquet call 1-250-994-3458.

According to ancient Chinese astrology, the moon is at its roundest in the middle of the autumn season. Since the round shape of full moon symbolizes family reunion and togetherness in Chinese culture, one of the preeminent festivals in the Chinese calendar is the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival. During the festival, family members gather to eat moon cakes and appreciate the bright full moon – an auspicious token of abundance, harmony and luck. On Aug. 16, Barkerville is host to the annual MidAutumn Moon Festival. Barkerville celebrates the festival a little earlier than most in order to share this special day with the historic town’s summertime guests. “Many people associate the arrival of the Chinese in Canada with the building of the railway,” said Dr. Ying Ying Chen, the archaeologist who runs Barkerville’s Historic Chinatown interpretation program. “The Mid-Autumn Moon Festival in Barkerville celebrates how these immigrants came to our country much earlier than that, and how they made significant contributions to the economy of British Columbia before it was a part of Canada.” In addition to a presentation of the Legend of Chang O, the tragic story of a Chinese goddess said to live on the moon, the day features lion dances, Chinese martial arts demonstrations, lantern-making workshops, a tea ceremony, games for all ages, moon cake tasting, two special celebration banquets, late-night fireworks, and a spectacular parade of illuminated paper lanterns that will fill the event with equal

that the mine would not pose a significant environmental risk. The site is near the border with the Alaska panhandle. Bennett notes that during the provincial review, the company changed its design to move the tailings and processing facility away from the mine site to address concerns by the fishing and tourism industry in Alaska. Fronk adds the tunnel component represents about 10 per cent of the capital cost, but it reduces the length of road required to truck concentrate to port facilities at Stewart.

Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits -- Rocket, a guntoting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand -- with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.

Bridge Lake volunteer organization needs help

The Bridge Lake Community School Society (BLCSS) is in danger of folding if it doesn’t get more volunteer members, says BLCSS secretary Becky Citra. This is why the BLCSS is holding a public meeting in the Interlakes/Roe Lake Hall on Sept. 4 to discuss the future of the society. The meeting starts at 7 p.m. and everyone is urged to attend. The society, which has been operating since 1998, is a registered charity and it is run by volunteers with a paid co-ordinator. “The purpose of the society is to encourage good nutrition in the school and to provide social and educational opportunities for the community,” says Citra. This is why the BLCSS

hosts the breakfast program five times a week at the school with no cost to children. It also hosts the hot lunch program at the school, which costs $2 per child. Citra notes there are after-school activities for the children, including crafts, music and cooking.

Adult programs include cooking, art, gardening, first aid, yoga, dog obedience, sports (badminton, volleyball, floor hockey and pickleball), meditation and spa sessions. The photography, bridge and book clubs use the school. The BLCSS mem-

Consultation sheds light on changes

By Tom Fletcher Black Press

Since commercial production of wine or cider is allowed on farmland, why not a brewery, distillery or meadery? Should energy cogeneration be allowed on farms, using manure or other biodegradable waste to produce methane gas and carbon dioxide? These are some of the questions included in the B.C. Liberal government’s consultation on changes to Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) regulations, released this week. Others deal with controversial proposals to allow specified non-farm uses, secondary residences and subdivisions without permission from the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC). Developed after consultation with the BC Agriculture Council, local governments and the commission, the 11 questions offer more detail on changes the government is considering under legislation passed despite protests this spring. The legislation divided the ALR into two zones, to permit more flexibility in the Interior, Kootenay and North regions (Zone 2) where both agriculture revenue and development pressure are lower. One question asks whether farmland in all of Zone 2 should be able to be subdivided down to a minimum of a quarter section (65 hectares) without application to the ALC, as is now allowed

in the Peace River and Northern Rockies Regional Districts in northeast B.C. Another proposal is to allow subdivision without ALC approval where farmland is divided by a major waterway or highway, subject to a minimum size. The province is also considering relaxing lease rules, which currently permit leasing of an entire farm property without ALC approval. The consultation asks if

a portion of property should be allowed for lease to permit “intergenerational transfer,” where farmers retire on a portion of their land so their children can continue to farm the rest. Another proposal for partial lease without ALC approval would allow unfarmed land to be brought into production. The partial leases would not require a formal subdivision. Agriculture Minister

Norm Letnick has emphasized that changes to the ALR are designed to support farming, not erode the protected agricultural land base. Public input is being accepted until Aug. 22. The questions and a background paper are available online at

www.engage.gov.bc.ca/ landreserve, where submissions can be made. Comments can also be made by email to ALCA_feedback@gov. bc.ca or by Canada Post to ALR Regulation Consultation, P.O. Box 9120, Stn. Provincial Government, Victoria B.C. V8W 9B4.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 How do you know how others will react to your requests if you never drum up the courage to ask, Cancer? Let your feelings be known this week and take a risk. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, enjoy an upcoming reunion with a friend you haven’t seen in some time. Make the most of this opportunity to catch up and recall old times. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, you have much-needed rest and relaxation coming your way. Let loose this week and enjoy the freedom. Enlist others to join in the fun. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, an opportunity to jump on the career path you always had in mind for yourself is about to present itself. Do everything in your power to make the job yours.

Sharing meals with hungry folks

By Lisa De Paoli Ingrid Meyer leads the Share a Meal Program in the South Cariboo. When Ingrid joined the South Cariboo Food Security Committee she asked, “What can we do right now to help vulnerable families feel part of the community?” She then answered this question herself by starting the Share a Meal program. Ingrid approached 11 restaurants in the South Cariboo asking them to participate in the Share a Meal program. As part of the program, restaurant staff ask patrons if they are interested in adding $5, $10, $15 or more to their bill to give a family in need a free meal at the restaurant. Through the overwhelming support of the restaurants and the commitment of their staff, the Share a Meal program has been a great success and is being considered by other communities in B.C. Since the fall, Ingrid has collected more than $3,500 of restaurant vouchers from Smitty’s, Old School Grill, Cindy’s Cookery, Hungry Bear Diner, BJ’s Donuts & Eatery, Smilies Café, Yummers

Ingrid has distributed restaurant vouchers to Loaves and Fishes Outreach, Cariboo Family Enrichment Centre, 100 Mile & District Women’s Centre, Canadian Mental Health Association, Axis Family Resources, Horton Ventures and Cariboo Christian Life Fellowship. Families have benefitted by being able to go out for lunch and dinner to celebrate events, such as birthdays, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Without these vouchers, these families could not

have afforded to have a meal at a restaurant. Families have said how wonderful it was for them to be able to celebrate their child’s birthday just like other parents are able to do. Watch out for the Share a Meal posters and tent cards in restaurants

that you frequent and please consider adding a few dollars to your bill to support a family in need. For more information call Ingrid Meyer at 250791-5663. Lisa De Paoli is executive director at the Cariboo Family Enrichment Centre.

Ladies shine at ‘Beach Day’ The 108 Ladies Club brought the beach to the golf course on Aug. 5. “Beach Day” was a lot of fun, says member Sharon Thompson. Thirty ladies were out in the great weather, some with beach towels, beach bags, floppy hats and in T-shirts with bikinis on them. Annie McKave and Gloria Corno made birdies during the nine-hole weekly round. The golfers aimed closest to the pin and went big for long drives. On No. 12, McKave shot closest to the pin, while Janet Roux shot closest on No. 10 and Angela Batahla did it on No. 15. Long drives were punched by Cathy Waite on No. 11, Shirley Boyson on No. 14 and Donna Brennan on No. 17. McKave (42) shot lowest gross in the first flight, followed by Waite (49). Clara Koehn (37) recorded low net in the first flight followed by Maureen Menzies (38). In the second flight, Leslie Bell (51) and Boyson (51) shot low gross.
