Human remains retrieved from the Oyster River Mike Davies Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Staff Sgt. Troy Beauregard of the Campbell River RCMP has confirmed that they are assisting the B.C. Coroner’s service in the investigation of human remains recovered from the Oyster River just south of Campbell River earlier this month. A York Road resident, who has requested anonymity, tells the Mirror that on Aug. 4 snorkelers swimming in the river discovered a body. Search and Rescue and police attended and retrieved the remains from the river. The coroner’s service did not comment on the matter in time for publication.

Chances staff vote to strike

agreement This just confirms what we have been telling the Employer and that is that the membership is adamant on getting an agreement that reflects the revenues and profits that are being taken out of this business by both the company and the government,” said Rick Wangler in the union’s release. From the employer’s perspective, the union’s last proposal was unrealistic. In a release from Playtime Gaming before the strike vote was held, which they confirmed, “remains unchanged,” they expressed their disappointment that the union “was intent on seeking a strike vote from our employees in order to advance its position at the bargaining table,” rather than, “providing us with a more realistic proposal upon which the bargaining process could continue.” Both sides are adamant that they are more than willing to continue the bargaining process.

The employees at Chances Casino in Campbell River have, “sent a strong message to the employer,” Playtime Gaming, by voting 96 per cent in favour of strike action, according to a press release from The United Steelworkers Local 1-1937, the union representing the workers. The negotiations between the union and Playtime have broken down in their latest round of contract bargaining. The union says they’ve received no response to their last counter proposal, and “will not bargain with ourselves,” saying that, “it is their turn to show the movement they said would be there prior to our last adjustment.” “Hopefully the company will get the message that their employees are determined to get a fair collective Mike Davies/The Mirror

New SPCA facility on track to open next month Mike Davies CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The electricians and contractors are at work, the volunteer base is strong, and the SPCA is in the final push to reopen their doors at their new facility at 891 13th avenue in a space belonging to the Association Francophone de Campbell River (AFCR). The SPCA has not had a home in Campbell River since early in 2013, when the City awarded the animal control contract for Campbell River to Coastal Animal Control, a private company based down Island - a contract previously held by the SPCA and without which they could not remain financially sustainable. But they’re close to being back, albeit in a more limited capacity. “The community has been so supportive and so understanding through the process, which is awesome,” said Stephanie Arkwright, manager of the Campbell River

branch of the BC SPCA. “As long as everything stays on track, we’re hoping to open after Paws for a Cause,” which is the BC SPCA’s major annual fundraiser. This year’s Paws for a Cause event happens Sunday, Sept. 9 in Nunn’s Creek Park. Jeanne Landry, executive director of the AFCR, said when she read about them looking for space to come back she called them immediately to offer up the area they will eventually call home. “We got it rezoned, and then there were building permits and everything…it took a long time,” Landry said, but added that now that the renovations are underway, “it’s coming along faster than I thought I would.” The new facility is expected to house an adoption and education centre, as well as providing specialized emergency services such as boarding and temporary care for injured wildlife. It will also, according to

Arkwright, have a retail area for pet food and pet related products, as well as being a meeting place for their community volunteers and eventually be able to host educational events for the community, some of which will run in cooperation with the Francophone Association. Thanks to recent approval from the City, two of the SPCA’s old outbuildings from the property on Merecroft Road, out of which the branch operated for years, will also be relocated to the new facility. Arkwright expects that process to be completed by the end of August. Those buildings will add significant interior space to the operation. The buildings being transferred are, “not your typical garden shed,” Arkwright said. They were built to house animals on the old property, and she expects they will likely be used for the same purpose in their new location. In terms of the orga-

nization’s community ser vices during the renovations, Arkwright said they’re happy to have at least been able to provide their spay and neuter programs during the turmoil. Since Oct. 22, 2013, the organization has spayed or neutered approximately 675 cats with help from a $158,000 grant through Pe t s m ar t C h ar it i e s Canada to subsidize the cost to owners. For a $30 donation to the program (which goes back into the fund for when the grant expires to help them continue the service), any resident of Campbell River can have any owned, feral or community cat spay or neutered. The program runs through October, 2015. Call Arkwright at 250830-4192 if you have any questions regarding any of their programs, the new facility, or would like to volunteer to help out, and look for more information about the facility’s opening in an upcoming edition of the Mirror.

Rivercorp has many irons in the fire as it works to contribute to the economic viability of Campbell River, city council was told. In a presentation to Campbell River City Council Aug. 12, Rivercorp Board Chair Donna Hains outlined lots of behind the scenes work by the city’s economic development office as it tries to stoke the fires of economic vitality. “The primary role of an economic development office is to inform potential investors and the private sector about opportunities in our community, facilitate meetings and interactions between appropriate parties and work to create an environment that is favourable to investment,” Hains told council. “My report outlines numerous projects Rivercorp has been working on and demonstrates that we have been working hard for Campbell River and will continue to work hard to contribute to the economic vitality of our city and region.” The projects reviewed for city council reflect Rivercorp’s strategic priorities: revitalizing the industrial tax base, retaining and growing the commercial tax base, and improving Campbell River and region as a tourism destination. “Rivercorp has been working very closely with Quicksilver Resources

and other players in the LNG sector to position the Elk Falls site as a key player in the new LNG marketplace,” Hains said. At stake are “hundreds of new, well-paying jobs in Campbell River and a significant positive bump to the city’s industrial tax base,” she added. Rivercorp has been working to facilitate development of a new industrial park near the airport. “This park would satisfy demand for new industrial land for green energy, clean technology, and aerospace sectors, among others, allowing for substantial investment, the creation of significant numbers of new jobs and an increased tax base,” the board chair said. The city’s economic development office is also looking into the viability of developing a seafood logistics hub in the area. “Campbell River and the surrounding region is home to vibrant fin and shellfish industries as well as the traditional wild fishery,” Hain said. “Rivercorp is look-

ing into the viability of developing a seafood logistics hub.” That would include a flexible cold storage facility and would provide year-round jobs. The seafood hub news caught Coun. Mary Story’s attention. “I’m very excited about the seafood logistics hub,” Story said. But Vic Goodman, Rivercorp CEO had to temper that enthusiasm a bit. “We’re really at the initial stage,” he said. “We haven’t moved very far along with this.” Another idea in the works is working actively with the Vancouver Island aerospace sector on major initiatives to bring well-paying aerospace jobs to the region. In the spring of 2013, Rivercorp was requested by the provincial government as well as a consortium of industry players and economic development offices on Vancouver Island to engage in discussions with Boeing to pursue Island aerospace opportunities. Those discussions are ongoing, Hain said. Rivercorp is also work-

ing with the federal government on fixed wing search and rescue aircraft contract which will have island wide impact. Rivercorp’s mandate to grow the tax base includes the creation of a small business incubator at the Enterprise Centre. “The region boasts a vibrant, growing cluster of digital animators, game developers and other creative industry professionals,” Hains said. “This incubator will provide valuable services to this new economic sector, as well as an inviting, well-equipped place for small business people to work and interact. “Rivercorp is working with the Campbell River Creative Industries Council and the city on this project,” The chair also reported that “Rivercorp, through its Tourism Campbell River and Region and Visitor Centre departments, has been working very actively with regional tourism operators. “Our objective is to increase tourism numbers and hotel stays and generate longer stays.

FRIDAY, AUGUST AUGUST 22, 22, 2014 2014 || CAMPBELL CAMPBELL RIVER RIVERMIRROR MIRROR | | 77 FRIDAY,

Major stars to film at Elk Falls Provincial Park Bron Studios of Vancouver and Rhombus Media of Toronto are producing a motion picture entitled Into the Forest, based on the Jean Hegland novel of the same name, which will star Ellen Page (Juno, X-Men Days of Future Past) and Evan Rachel Wood (The Wrestler,

Thirteen), and they’ve settled on Elk Falls Provincial Park as one of the locations for filming. According to production company, Into the Forest Productions BC, the location was chosen “for the large old growth trees that are accessible, picturesque [that will] serve production well for

the film’s scenes.” Directed by Patricia Rozema (Mansfield Park), the film centres on two teens growing up in the remote forests of Northern California while the world is on the brink of apocalypse. BC Parks has permitted the production to film in the Day Use Area

in the upper parking lot and related public trails around the old growth trees. Filming dates will be on Aug. 24 and 25, though the general public will be welcomed throughout the area only during the cleanup and teardown stage of the shoot on the 25th. During filming, the support

vehicles and services have been given the option of locating along the upper parking lot access road and parking area and will also be using a portion of the new parking area near the BC Hydro Interpretive Centre. The public will have vehicle access to the park via the new

BC Hydro / BC Parks parking area and the lower parking lot will remain open. Use of all surrounding walking trails will be allowed with occasional requests for control for short periods during actual filming. For information about the production or about

Our View

Scams: Exercising caution is always warranted It used to be that one didn’t venture alone down a suspiciously dark alley for fear of being mugged. Technology, of course, has long since brought robbers to our doorsteps, via telephones and computers. We say: Take We can’t afford to relax our vigilance at home, with conscienceless scammers a time-out ever-ready to exploit age, infirmity, for careful inattention or our own naturally trusting natures. consideration The young friend or relative-indistress scenario is still alive and kicking, according to one recent call. The caller is, of course, in some predicament that requires the sending of money, and the

easiest way is by providing financial information that will compromise the victim’s accounts. It’s a cold-hearted scheme, relying on seniors’ perceptions of the casual haphazardness of the young, and the fact that they may be delighted to hear from a usually uncommunicative relative. Another reader recently made the mistake of responding to an offer to rid his computer of viruses and malware at a special price. It was a limited-time offer, he was told. Thus baited, he was offered a series of options that tested his willingness to co-operate and compromise computer passwords – with the result that malware was actually installed, shutting down his system. He didn’t lose money, per se – other than having to pay for costly

repair and file retrieval – but he still worries that his computer was mined for sensitive information. Each of these schemes has a common lynch-pin – catching the recipient off-guard with a time-sensitive request, calling for a snap decision. It would be a sad commentary on our times if we became so jaded that we mistrust every attempt to communicate with us. But we should never volunteer information on the spur of the moment. Nothing is lost by a short time-out for careful consideration. A real friend or relative, or legitimate business, will respect a small delay. If they don’t, it should provide the reddest of red flags. – Black Press

From grocery stores to restaurants, roadside fruit stands to catered banquets, any business with a license to sell food to the public is periodically inspected to ensure they are following appropriate and adequate safety measures. You probably knew that. But did you know you have access to those reports? I recently went through them. Yes, I looked at the recent history of the health inspections done on all 223 of the licensed food service establishments in Campbell River. Food Hazard Ratings are given to every business after an inspection, reflecting the general level of satisfaction the inspector has with the operation at the time of inspection. A rating of Low, according to the branch of VIHA

who issues the reports, means, “the food facility was in good compliance with the Food Regulation and the health inspector believes there are no food safety issues that require attention. A rating of Moderate, “indicates the food facility has some minor food safety issues that can be eliminated with immediate attention by the operator.” A High rating, “indicates there are significant food safety issues and the restaurant may be ordered closed if the operator does not take immediate action to correct them.” These general ratings are somewhat misleading, however. If you want to look up your favourite restaurant’s health reports (and you should—we’ll get to that later), you need to go into each inspection’s report and analyze a degree

or two further. For example, an establishment with a moderate hazard rating may have received only non-critical violations such as, “Improper Construction/Maintenance of Establishment,” which sounds bad at first until you read that they got that violation because the shelf with the cleaning supplies is too high and they need to use a step stool to get to them. An establishment who received a Moderate rating had a few such violations, however, and some of them are obviously more troubling than others. What I’m saying is that you have to read these things with a critical and contextualized eye. You should also not just be looking at the most recent report, and instead look for trends or repeated violations, which

may imply a systemic issue or behavioural tendencies on the part of the establishment. These are bad. For example, if an establishment is repeatedly receiving violations that read, “Improper Cleaning, Sanitizing of Equipment and Utensils,” or, “Inadequate Cooling & Refrigeration of Potentially Hazardous Food(s),” which are Critical Violations, there are issues significantly above and beyond needing to replace their cutting boards or a waitress leaving her purse on the counter too close to the handwashing sink. The long and short of my argument is this: We have access to these reports, and we should use that fact to force food and beverage service facilities to step up their games and avoid hazardous situations

that endanger the health of the community. We do that by telling them with our spending (or lack of) that we won’t stand for them slacking off and putting us at risk. Read the reports. Read them fully, in context, and consider the infractions that they are

exposing. Is it possible they were just having an off day? Maybe. You can read between the lines, though. A broken ice machine on the day of the inspection will be a violation, but I personally wouldn’t put it in the same category as, “Significant cle an liness issues,”

despite it falling under the same category in the report itself (non-critical). Still don’t care? Okay, what if I told you that there were 32 establishments that received Moderate or High Hazard Ratings on their most recent inspection reports?

parents can have a medical alarm system installed. This ensures that assistance will arrive quickly if they ever fall or are unable to reach the telephone to call you.

Fortunately, many companies specialize in home care for seniors. They provide them with support, particularly when it comes to routine daily tasks, such as cleaning and shopping at the grocery store or pharmacy.

If your parents’ driving is a concern, or if they no longer have a car, encourage the use of public transportation for outings. It is also possible to make use of specialized ride-sharing services offered by a non-profit organization, or call for a taxi.

All your parents have to do is make a list of everything they need to purchase and relay it to the appropriate person at the company. If you’re worried that your parents aren’t eating properly, chefs can even help them prepare their meals for the week.

Ann Kask taking on new challenge for Team Diabetes

f Ann Kask had run all of her marathon races in a row she would be in Calgary by now. If her training runs were included, she would be well on her way back from Newfoundland. Instead she has run throughout the world. Now, after running 12 42.2 k marathons with Team Diabetes, she is trading in running shoes for hiking boots to hike the Inca Trail with Team Diabetes. She will tackle

the tortuous South American mountain path on August 24. Team Diabetes is a national fundraising program for the Canadian Diabetes Association. Since the team’s beginning in 2000, members of Team Diabetes have raised over 30 million dollars for the Canadian Diabetes Association. Kask has been a Team Diabetes member since 2002 and has raised close to $70,000 during that time.

Over nine million Canadians are living with diabetes or prediabetes. “I became involved because a close family member has had Type 1 diabetes for 53 years,” said Kask. “I saw Team Diabetes as a way that I could help in the effort to find a cure, and make a difference.” While the Canadian Diabetes Association searches for a cure, it tries to ensure that all Canadians living with diabetes have access to

the information and resources they need to live healthy lives. The results are evident locally. The CDA helps a camp for children with Type 1 diabetes at Camp Homewood on Quadra Island every year. Here young people living with Type 1 diabetes can learn how to manage their disease and gain independence through outdoor activities while a team of health professionals provide around the clock diabetes education and management. In addition to children and youth, the CDA provides diabetes management information and programs to local adults to mitigate the long term complications of living with this chronic disease.

Regional thinking gets local results phor for how ICET has operated since its inception in 2006,” said Board Chair Phil Kent. “When you look at the spinoffs from projects like the Wild Pacific Trail in Ucluelet which is now rated by TripAdvisor as the #1 attraction in all of B.C., it becomes obvious that investments in economic infrastructure are catalysts for growth and change.” The annual report, available at www.islandcoastaltrust.ca, also profiles the Trust’s newest endeavour: the Economic Development Readiness Program. With more than $4M remaining to allocate to new projects, applicants are encouraged to visit the new www.islandcoastaltrust.ca site to learn more and apply. Applications for Economic Infrastructure Funding are due by Sept. 19 for the North Island and Sunshine Coast region.

The newly released Island Coastal Economic Trust annual report for 2013-2014 highlights the year’s results as well as the local impacts of the funding which has been disbursed to economic development projects in the region. In 2006, the Province of BC invested $50 million into an economic development model governed by local leaders, enabling local decision making for economic investment. To date, this fund has disbursed $44.3 million to projects on the Island north of the Malahat and on the Sunshine Coast. These funds have generated more than $268 million in additional investment to the region; this means an additional $4.7 dollars of economic development investment for every original dollar invested by the province. It also means more than 2500 construction jobs and 2,200 long term jobs, benefitting residents, businesses and even governments with increased taxation revenue. But the greatest benefit is the long term change which happens in communities due to new amenities, improved transportation, business growth and new resident and business attraction. “The theme of this year’s report is ‘Regional thinking, local results’, and that’s an apt meta-

Storm ready for preseason, open with bout in Victoria The 2014/15 edition of the Campbell River Storm makes its debut this weekend with a VIJHL pre-season tilt Sunday afternoon in Victoria against the Cougars. Local hockey fans will recall that it was the Cougars that ended the Storm’s playoff hopes last spring, winning a tense, spirited semi-final series in five games. Although it’s only an exhibition affair, Campbell River head coach Lee Stone is holding nothing back said he expects the two teams to pick up right where they left off in March. “The team we are taking to Victoria is very close to the team our fans will see on opening night,” he said. “At the end of the coming season Victoria is probably the team we are going to have to beat [to win the Island]. At the start of the year you want to have a real good game, even though it’s only exhibition – I think it sets the tone for the entire season.” There also may be a measure of revenge involved according to

associate coach Stefan Jensen. “You have to take into consideration the last game our returning guys played was against Victoria in the playoffs, he said. “They knocked us out and there are still a lot of hard feelings about that.” Both Stone and Jensen have high expectations for the coming season, especially after witnessing the exceptional skill level exhibited last weekend at Strathcona Gardens during main camp. “I was really impressed with the effort level from everybody,” said Stone, who is entering his second season at the helm. “It was a very talented camp, probably the most talented camp on the Island.” Stone expects to have a veteran roster, with as many as ten returning players, and notes some have already made their presence felt. “Josiah Friesen had an excellent camp,” he said, noting that he believes assigning him one of the team’s assistant captains at the end of last season boosted his confidence.

Another player picked out by the coaching staff to be one to watch this season is Michael Olson, who they say they have high expectations for after his stand out performance in training camp. Among the surprises at camp were young forwards Jaden McNulty and Ben Raffler, who led the scrimmages in points and plus-minus respectively, and 16-year-old Campbell River product Sage Lim who scored three times in three games. The Storm roster will feature the largest crop of local products in recent memory, led by team captain Jordan Rauser and his tenacious younger brother Gavin. Other former Tyees cracking the line-up include forwards James S e v e r s an d G r a d y McInnes along with defensemen Brendan Enns, Joe Gage, and Andy Stevens. Add Comox Valley’s Joe Surgenor to the mix and the Central Island is well represented. “Any time you have local talent, it’s great,”

Storm players celebrate after a goal during the hard-fought playoff series versus the Cougars this past March, which Victoria won in five games.

Stone said, “But the key word there is talent. You don’t just want locals, you want young men that have the ability to play.

That’s the exciting thing, any team on Vancouver Island would love to have any of these players.” Campbell River fans

get their first look at the new squad next weekend. The Storm will host The North Vancouver

Wolfpack in a pair of exhibition games set for Saturday and Sunday nights, Aug. 30 and 31, at Rod Brind’Amour Arena.

Fishing Corner

Campbell River

Your Adventure Awaits!

7x14

As we head into the last two weeks of August, the buzz around Campbell River is that salmon fishing has been the best ever in years.

Killoran. On Aug. 17 at 8:45 a.m., Deb Idiens got a 30 pound Tyee with rower Bill Idiens. Fishing guides are getting their limits of springs, sockeye and coho for their clients. To find Sockeye, guides are fishing north of the lodge.

Fishing guides that work in the area hear many stories about what the most unique question is asked to guides and the one that surfaced is a couple of Americans asked the fishing guide “When do the smoked salmon start running?”

Shelly Jenkins fishing on the Blue Eagle limited out, this catch was a 15 pound spring

Fishing Corner

Springs are being caught and being added to the mix are coho and sockeye. The pinks are getting dark but offer the angler great fun on light tackle. Flycasters can be seen on the Campbell River and they can put on a show of casting finesse in hopes of getting a salmon on the line using a wide variety of store-bought or hand-tied flies or hand.

the Pier, Jack Heemskirk caught three springs in April and he was the first to hit the scoreboard. Jack said it was slow this time of year but he is putting in his time fishing and caught another spring that came in at 26.5 pounds on Aug. 15.

Early in the morning at Discovery Pier a handful of anglers will enjoy fishing, having a coffee and simply spending time doing what they enjoy best. A t

Bottom fish can often be caught off the pier and a Ling cod was caught last Monday.
