Federal NDP leader tours northwest

By Margaret Speirs Enbridge’s plan for a pipeline and super tanker connection so that Alberta oil can be exported to Asia was again condemned by federal NDP leader Tom Mulcair during a one day tour of the area Aug. 18.

“I’m categorically opposed to super tankers in the Douglas Channel,” he said during a press conference after landing at the Northwest Regional Airport the morning of August 18 and before embarking on a tour of Kitimat, Kitamaat Village, and Hartley Bay. He met with municipal and First Nations leaders at the locations.

Mulcair was accompanied on the tour by Skeena - Bulkey NDP MP Nathan Cullen who is the party’s finance critic in the House of Commons.

He said seeing the Douglas Channel, the route tankers would take in and out of Kitimat, was important for him to get an understanding of what was at stake.

Mulcair also said First Nations issues are important in Canada and that he spends time on matters regarding First Nations people.

Mulcair said it was important for all leaders to listen to the people, saying he and his wife went on a cross-country trip to listen to what the First Nations had to say.

It was “humbling” as he realized the issues were very complex, said Mulcair.

The NDP would respect first nation treaty rights and inherent rights and the party’s comprehensive approach would cost more money but needs to be done so future generations aren’t left with a huge economic debt.

The James Bay Cree came up with a comprehensive agreement with the locals there and it’s worked, said Mulcair.

Romeo Saganash, who worked on it, is now in the federal NDP caucus representing Northern Quebec, said Mulcair, adding he was proud to have Saganash there.

The perception that the NDP is concerned with jobs in Ontario but not in BC isn’t correct, he said.

“I want value-added [jobs],” he said about B.C., adding he didn’t like that 40,000 jobs had been exported and he didn’t like the federal Conservative government’s “rip and ship” approach.

For example, he said Port Alberni at one time had several sawmills, but now raw logs were being exported to be processed elsewhere and then brought back here to sell, when workers here should be doing the work and getting paid for it.

If we’re not careful, we will end up shipping our fish away to be processed and then shipping them back here to be sold, which doesn’t make much sense, he said.

Teen pregnancies high in north Kitimat’s birth rates haven’t so far been taking off, but neither are they falling.

A report from Northern Health released earlier this year shows the latest figures, as the health authority continues to monitor birth rates locally as the town sees the impact of a temporary work force.

So to the numbers themselves, in the Kitimat area, from 2008 to 2013, there were 492 infants born to 486 mothers.

From those, 174, or 35.80 per cent, were delivered in the ceasarean section method.

Fifty-two births were to teen mothers, those 19 years or younger.

As well, 50 births were to people over 35 years old, or as the report refers to is as “elderly gravida”.

Finally, 54 or 11.11 per cent of the

mothers reportedly smoked during pregnancy.

The teen mother statistic, says the report, “can provide indirect information about the effectiveness of sexual health education, access to contraceptives and other services for this age group, as it is assumed that most pregnancies among teens are unintended.”

Northern B.C. mothers, the report also says, have “some of the highest teen pregnancy and teen birth rates in B.C.” As for the women over 35, the report says that those mothers have a higher risk of having a baby with a disease or “condition that is inherited as well as a greater chance of having complications during pregnancy.”

The risks from smoking is fairly clear, the report noting higher risks of stillbirth, low birth weight and pre-

term birth.

“Mothers from Northern B.C. have the highest ‘smoking during pregnancy’ rates in B.C.,” says the report.

It also finds that mothers identified as smokers and for whom drugs are a risk factor are highest in northern B.C. The figure of 11.11 per cent of Kitimat mothers who smoked during pregnancy is higher than the provincial total, where 8.58 per cent of all B.C. mothers reported smoking during pregnancy.

Also in comparison, the 35.8 per cent caesarean rate in Kitimat compares to B.C.’s total per cent of 30.82.

Regionally, Kitimat leads the way in caesareans, well ahead of Terrace with an approximately 18 per cent rate among their births. Prince Rupert gets closer with an approximately 26 per cent rate.

Regional briefs Ban still in effect

SMITHERS Because dry conditions are expected to continue and no substantial rainfall is in the forecast, the Northwest Fire Centre will not be lifting the current campfire and open fire prohibitions at this time.

These prohibitions will remain in place until Sept. 15, 2014, or until the public is notified otherwise.

The Northwest Fire Centre is battling several large fires with the assistance of crews from other parts of B.C., other provinces and Australia.

The Northwest Fire Centre would like to thank the public for helping the firefighters’ efforts by abiding by the fire prohibitions.

The following activities continue to be prohibited in the Nadina Fire Zone and the Bulkley Fire Zone, and in the Skeena Fire Zone with the exception of the former North Coast Forest District - Campfires, as defined in the wildfire regulation, Category 2 open fires, Category 3 open fires, Outdoor stoves, tiki torches, burn barrels, fireworks and sky lanterns. The prohibition does not apply to CSArated or ULC-rated cooking stoves that use gas, propane or briquettes, or to a portable campfire apparatus that uses briquettes, liquid or gaseous fuel, as long as the height of the flame is less than 15 centimeters.

Anyone found in violation of an open burning prohibition may be issued a ticket of up to $345 or, if convicted in court, may be fined up to $100,000 and sentenced to one year in jail.

Mulcair Continued from page 1 The opposition leader also brought up the recent spill of the Imperial Metals’ Mount Polley tailings pond.

The spill does not mean that new laws and regulations need to be set up but the ones we have need to be enforced, however, the federal Conservative government has scaled back and is not following up on the laws and regulations in place, he said.

It was not an act of God, which some have

claimed, rather it’s due to a mining company that doesn’t care and that has put human health and the economy at risk, said Mulcair.

“The NDP would ‘enforce the law and apply it equally to everyone,’” he said.

“The laws are there to be enforced because we have an obligation to future generations to give them the right to live in a clean country,” said Mulcair.

Mulcair left the region the morning of Aug. 19.

A garden to call our own Cameron Orr Those who run Kitimat’s new community garden were still thinking of a fun name for the 12 plot site when we spoke to them recently about the community’s newest feature.

Before we continue, we’d like to offer up some friendly suggestions: Kale-ometre Zero, Lettuce Inn, or perhaps The Leeky Condos.* Whether or not those over at Kitimat Community Services Society decide to accept our friendly suggestions — and really, it’s their loss if they don’t — what’s undeniable is their project to open a community garden in town has been met with great success for its first year.

Garden beds of leeks, lettuce, tomatoes and potatoes, among many other items, have sprung up behind the Kitimat Mountain View Alliance Church.

“It’s definitely a need in Kitimat, I

think,” said community garden coordinator Willow Rudiger.

She said rising rents and limited incomes are some of the ways a community garden becomes valuable to a community, where people can grow their own food.

Taking on a garden plot doesn’t cost any money, although users are encouraged to donate money if they can to go towards garden upgrades.

Rudiger recently moved to Kitimat with her husband and was involved in a demonstration garden in their town of Marysville, Washington.

“It was a demonstration garden that community members could come to see different ways of growing food and other plants,” she said.

In Kitimat the garden is a volunteer driven endeavour. Kitimat Community Services Society runs it, the plant beds were built with volunteer labour,

The list of what’s being grown is fairly substantive: there’s tomatoes, peppers, peas, potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, green beans, radishes, cauliflower, kale, broccoli, onions, leeks, beets, lettuce, basil and cilantro.

And there’s even a bed of flowers too.

The chance for people to grow their own food is one way to chip away at rising food costs.

“Food costs are very expensive in Kitimat. That’s just my experience coming from the States, but a lot of it has to do with transportation,” said Rudiger. “Most of our food in the stores is being trucked or flown from thousands of miles away.”

The Kitimat Food Share program take care of four of the 12 beds as well. It was

There’s more to the garden than just growing food though, and Rudiger says they hope to be able to use it as a sort of outdoorclassroom.

Building spirit A community garden is just one of those things you see and you wonder why nothing like it had happened earlier.

It’s been a little while since I’ve drawn from my experience working in Smithers but it’s time to draw from that well again. Smithers is a community that has had community gardens for awhile now.

Sadly my memory is fading on the quantity of the gardens but I know it was at least two, although a third seems to ring a bell. I often passed one from my apartment to downtown.

It wasn’t only community gardens though, even elementary schools got in to the action, building school-based gardens.

The group in Smithers, Northern Root Community Gardens, also run education series, called Gardening Talks where people can learn about, well, gardening.

Perhaps it’s just me but it feels like gardening knowledge is slipping away. Personally I’ve become really good at growing weeds but little else.

Beyond that though it’s a real community-building experience, something I increasingly grow to appreciate as time goes on.

I do occasionally catch messages people post, these days mostly on Twitter, disparaging Kitimat in some way. Saying there’s nothing to do, or that they ‘can’t wait to get out.’

But I was told once, by someone in Smithers as a matter of fact, that you really have to make your own fun. It was a conversation that we were having about what there is to do in the town. Smithers, population wise, is smaller than Kitimat but it’d be hard to tell driving through. (They do serve a wider geographic area, though, I should admit.)

In Smithers those fun times were built with community gardens, or even volunteer-built community radio, among others.

That’s why I find it important to highlight the gardens as one of the newer ways the town is building upon itself. Great things can be built with passion and teamwork.

Looking through Kitimat’s history we have a lot built by passion, which I’ve spoken to before. The Gyros built Radley Park, the Lions Club built playgrounds, and so on.

Today, Community Services has opened a community garden, a place to grow food, and to provide an educational line to our food supply and to teach lessons that are harder to absorb on a Google page.

These lessons require dirt under the nails.

So all this to basically say, kudos on the garden.

I personally hope to see more built over the coming years.

Cameron Orr

Bad news goes round and round There’s just too much bad news ocurring daily around the world. Ebola, ISIS beheadings, police shootings and riots in Missouri, endless shelling and killing in Gaza/Israel, sinking ships, genocide, rape, murder, fire and flooding...

There’s no end to it. Even the most “highdrama” news browser must be getting more than enough of blood, gore, death and destruction. So it’s time to tone it down and take a look at a few other trends that we’ve probably all had enough of...

ALS is a serious disease and no doubt it deserves more support in pursuit of a cure. That said, enough of the “ice bucket challenge.” If it’s been done by Rob Ford and Gary Bettman, it’s time to find a new thrust for ALS. P.K. Subban outdid them all with his dump truck of icy water, anyway.

The year 2014 really has been a downer so far as I am concerned. Not a lot of good news.

But, are things normalizing? No not quite -- but to see camp fire bans in Kitimat and Terrace and lots of fried municipal lawns and 30-plus deg. C. at the same time as Toronto is complaining of the cold, wet weather and no 30s, comes pretty close to good news for us.

Under Miscellaneous

by Allan Hewitson ahewitson@telus.net

So I thought I’d come up with just a few more things that have caught my eye in recent days, much like the ice bucket craze.

Food banks are busier than ever across Canada as unemployment remains high. But when outfits like the Ottawa food bank begin listing what they won’t accept from your own food supplies because it’s “unhealthy” in their opinion, I see red. Ottawa’s Parkdale Food Bank says no more Kraft Dinner, hot dogs, chips, candy and canned Irish stew.

“Food bank patrons deserve more healthy donations” and she’d like to see more eggs, milk, yogurt and cheese donations coming into the centre. (None of these sound like “non-perishables, to me.) Also the Centre’s “good food” website lists nuts, fresh meats, rice and canned beans among dozens of other items. O.K. but Food Banks Canada, says close to 850,000 Canadians used food banks on a monthly basis in 2013.

The organization said the numbers are down from 2012, but significantly higher than the estimated 676,000 Canadians that used food banks each month in 2008. I wonder if they’re all as fussy as the “food guardians” at the bank in Parkdale?

Talking of things that are past their due date -- how about “Big Brother” shows. Embarrassing and dreadfully unentertaining. Not unexpected news?

Blue Jays in full free fall for their late season swoon. Not totally giving up but this team needs some sustained winning.

Despite all the good weather, I splurged on a new big screen “smart” TV. Wish I was smart enough to read and understand the instructions. Still, Netflix is good (better than the sad summer Telus range of offerings) and I also had a chance to compare “House of Cards” - BBC and HBO style. For once the Americans get the nod, although any comparison between Washington and Whitehall some years ago is a bit difficult.

I can’t say I’m a fan of actions by Calgary police who ran a jaywalking ticket blitz against pedestrians crossing the street “at the wrong” place after the sidewalks were closed by construction.

Opportunism and “free enterprise” by traffic cops seems just malicious.

Northern Sentinel, Wednesday, August 27, 2014 5

Will candidates embrace reality?

The annual Fish Derby is upon us and soon after the kids will hopefully be going back to school, traditional markers of the end of Summer and arrival of Fall.

But this being a municipal election year, the change of season also heralds the unofficial beginning of the election campaign.

That usually translates into a rush of feel good motions from the sitting mayor/ council as they attempt to grab the headlines, motions that often involve extra spending by the city.

And it will undoubtedly be more of the same at the all-candidates meeting when the incumbents will be joined by the challengers in promising voters a land of milk and honey.

If the universe had unfolded as it was supposed to, this would be a great year to run for municipal office.

The BC LNG Co-op project would be only months from making its first shipment, construction of the Kitimat LNG plant would be going flat out with the likelihood of first product being shipped out in mid-2016 and Shell would be very close to

Baxyard Banter

greenlighting its LNG Canada plant on the old Methanex site.

All that activity would have provided ample justification for candidates to make extravagant promises in the reasonable expectation they would be able to deliver on them during their four-year term.

Unfortunately it didn’t.

The Co-op ran out of money and is now dead in the water.

True the project might be rescued by Altagas, but that company is indicating it could locate the plant in Prince Rupert rather than Kitimat.

So no guarantee of increased industrial tax revenue with that one.

The future of Kitimat LNG is up in the air with Apache’s decision to pull out

of the project. But let’s put on our rosiest set of glasses and say Chevron finds a new partner tomorrow morning who’s ready to rumble.

No final investment decision can be made until the provincial government brings down legislation on its proposed LNG export tax, expected sometime this Fall. So no green light before the first quarter of next year.

But let’s keep up the heady optimism and say it does come then, full scale construction starts as soon as weather permits and the plant starts shipping product in 2017, a year before the new council’s term of office expires.

One tiny problem: the plant would be built on Haisla land and it is the Haisla who would reap the taxation benefits, not Kitimat.

No guarantee of increased industrial tax revenue there either.

Which leaves LNG Canada. Frankly, expecting any significant tax revenue from that project during the next four years is moving from extreme optimism to delusion.

Will candidates still make grandiose promises despite the above?

Of course they will. Very few candidates are prepared to be completely realistic because very few of those who do get elected - and no-one runs to lose.

Nevertheless, I will still hope that one or more candidates step up to the reality plate - and are rewarded for it by the voters.

FOOTNOTE: As an aside, I know there are people who are unhappy with me for what they see as my negative attitude to LNG. Let me point out that when the LNG export idea first surfaced, I was an enthusiastic supporter.

On the information available at the time it seemed like a slam dunk and I wrote more than a few editorials extolling the virtues of this new industry and projecting quick start-up dates.

The key words are “information available at the time”. Today I have a lot more information at my fingertips which has led me to draw very different conclusions from back then.

And, as usual, I call it as I see it.

Privatization of MK Bay Marina A Mistake Dear Sir, I am writing this open letter to express my concern over the possible sale of MK Bay Marina.

I have been using this marina for over ten years both as a private boater and a part-time charter operator. I was aware of some of the conflict that took place between the former manager and clientele over the past decade.

Recently under new management, I have never seen the marina run safer, more organized, and with more competent staff as I do at the present time. I have been at this marina almost every day this past July and every day in August and the competency of present staff has been remarkable given the block-

ade by the Haisla of the former parking and camping space adjacent to the marina and the forced eviction of dry docked boats owned by

ent time the marina is owned and controlled by the Regional District of Kitimat Stikine.

The recent Regional District meeting on

ReadeR’s WRite people for years at that site. This blockade has also forced people to park their cars and boat trailers on the road or leave the area entirely in what many have seen as an effort to force the sale of the marina to the Haisla. This has resulted in an unsafe traffic situation on the roadway.

Under the current system this marina runs from revenue derived from its operations, and has not been supported by tax payer dollars since 1995. At the pres-

Friday, August 8th revealed what little support this Regional District has for the marina.

They showed no consideration for the value local people have for this facility. What they do see are the funds they could acquire for their own agenda if it is sold. People sitting for the Regional District have no stake in this facility and yet have the power to control its future.

be done as they do have a stake. At the very least make it an open process so the public knows what is going on and allow public input on what should be done.

At present all decision making is at in-camera sessions with Regional District personnel.

If the misguided decision is made to give this public facility up to a private entity

there should certainly be conditions attached to the sales contract: 1. Current marina fee structure should remain intact and in line with other similar public facilities in the Northwest 2. Current staff should remain in place 3. Public access with present levels of private and commercial clientele maintained

4. Annual moorage clientele contracts maintained and respected Should the sale of this marina pass with no conditional attachments, I can foresee a repeat of forced evictions of current clientele for the private agenda of a select group. Kitimat will lose a valuable asset that has been a part of this com-

munity for decades.

This will be a repeat of what occurred with the forced eviction of boaters and closure of the Kitimat Yacht Club and Moon Bay Marina

by Rio Tinto Alcan for its own purposes a few years ago. This continued privatization of public resources is a mistake.

Continued from page 3 growing in their backyards since they moved here. There’s a wealth of gardening knowledge about what grows well in Kitimat and we’re hoping this can serve as a bridge between folks who might be coming in and sharing and teaching with folks that are new and want to learn more about gardening.”

The garden has benefitted from some community donations, as well as a grant from Kick it Up Kitimat for $3,000.

The money will be used towards growing the garden, including a

planned eight bed expansion next year.

They’re also looking at installing a fence to prevent animals from wandering through the plants, although there’s been no sign of any vandalism for which Community Services is happy.

Those running the garden are hoping in the future they’ll even be able to sprout up new locations around town to make them even more accessible.

People can contact Community Services if they’re interested in having their own garden plot next year.

Website guide to teacher strike

Fire at Eutsuk Lake in Tweedsmuir Provincial Park consumes forest interspersed with beetle-killed pine trees. Laura Blackwell

Forest fires costly to B.C. Tom Fletcher The B.C. government had been spending $3.5 million a day to fight forest fires around the province, with the total for the year past $106 million and headed higher.

The government is bracing for bills that could reach $250 million by the end of the summer, depending on weather and the number of fires that threaten homes. B.C. has brought in firefighters from Ontario, Alberta

and New Brunswick, and issued several evacuation orders by the mid-point of the summer season. Finance Minister Mike de Jong asked for B.C. residents to take all possible precautions and observe campfire bans through August. About 40 per cent of B.C. forest fires are human caused, with most of the rest started by lightning strikes.

Forest fire spending is already approaching totals for the last two years. Highs in the past

decade are $382 million in 2009 and $371 million in 2003, when fires damaged Kelowna and Barriere.

“The possibility of the fire season consuming a quarter billion tax dollars is real,” de Jong said. “Whilst there is no issue about spending the money, it has to come from somewhere, so that’s a cost item that’s looking like it will be considerably more than what had been hoped for.”

Tom Fletcher The B.C. government has launched a new website to prepare parents for a possible continuation of the teacher strike after Labour Day. The website, bcparentinfo.ca, promises the latest bargaining updates on B.C.’s festering teacher dispute, and will act as a portal for parents registering to collect $40 a day for each child under 12 if the strike drags on.

It also offers links to online learning re-

sources from school districts, which have proliferated in recent years. Talks have continued under a media blackout since mediator Vince Ready met the two sides last week.

“Mr. Ready agreed to monitor the situation, and to resume exploratory talks or commence full mediation when he believes it will be productive,” the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and B.C. Public School Employers’ Association said in a brief statement.

Negotiations broke off and a fullscale strike and lockout ended the school year in June. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Kelleher met both sides earlier but declined to attempt mediation, after finding too large a gap between the two sides.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender and BCPSEA chief negotiator Peter Cameron have maintained that the BCTF’s benefit demands remain far Continued on pg 8

Application for a Permit Under The Provisions of the Environmental Management Act We, Chevron Canada Limited (“Chevron”), intend to submit an application to the Director to authorize the discharge of effluent associated with the construction of the Kitimat LNG Terminal Project (“Project”). The source of discharges are stormwater runoff from the Project Site and support areas.

The land upon which the project and its support areas will be situated and the discharge will occur is Bees Indian Reserve No. 6, District Lot 2578; Units 10, 20, 28, 29, 30, 38, 39, 40 Block J and Units 1, 2, 11, 12, 21, 22, 31, 32 Block K, 103-H-15 in Range 4, Coast District, located at Bish Cove and within the Bish Creek Watershed including the following watercourses and associated tributaries: Bish Creek, West Creek, Skoda Creek and Renegade Creek.

The maximum rate of effluent discharged from this project and support areas will vary based upon seasons and weather and may change as the Project is developed. The operating period for this project and support areas will be continuous. The characteristics of the stormwater runoff will be water produced from precipitation including snowmelt that contains suspended sediment from earthworks and construction are as follows: Total Suspended Solids less than 75mg/L daily average, Total Extractable Hydrocarbons less than 15mg/L and pH between 6.5 and 9.0. The types of treatment to be applied to the discharges are: erosion prevention and sedimentation control management practices and devices which may include sedimentation ponds, oil water separators, pH adjustment, flocculent addition and sand filtration.

Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed stormwater discharge and wishes to provide relevant information may, within 30 days after the date of posting, publishing, service or display, send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the Regional Manager, Environmental Protection at #325 - 1011 Fourth Ave, Prince George BC V2L 3H9.

During this period, Chevron and JGC Fluor will control and manage the stormwater runoff from the site through implementation of “Stormwater and Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control Plans. “ The Ministry of Environment has requested that Chevron Canada Limited obtain a Discharge Permit under the Environmental Management Act to authorize the stormwater runoff in accordance with the Plans. The Discharge Permit will set objectives for the stormwater discharge to protect the local environment.

Protecting people and the environment is Chevron’s highest priority.

Chevron’s engineering, procurement and construction contractor, JGC Fluor, is currently preparing the land for the construction of the LNG Plant site and contractor support areas.

This proposed project would see Chevron excavate marine clay from the Kitimat LNG construction site at Bish Cove and work closely with the Federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans to deposit this natural material in specific locations in Clio Bay. The clay will cap-off decaying wood debris left by historic log booming operations that has accumulated on the bottom of Clio Bay, damaging the Bay’s natural ecosystem. A key goal of the project is to restore natural marine life populations in Clio Bay.

Northern mines await Mount Polley probe Tom Fletcher The company developing the Morrison copper-gold mine near Smithers remains confident it can complete the project, despite a decision by the B.C. government to suspend its environmental assessment until an investigation into the Mount Polley mine dam breach is completed.

Pacific Booker Minerals “will comply with all the recommendations made by the independent engineering investigation and review panel and will construct and operate the Morrison mine in compliance with industry best practices, using proven technology and in full compliance with all permit requirements,” company director Erik Tornquist said in a statement.

Environment Minister Mary Polak and Energy and Mines Minister announced the suspension this week.

It’s the second setback the province has handed to Pacific Booker, which won a court decision last December after its permit was refused by the B.C. government.

Bennett said the Morrison tailings pond was one of the issues in the court case, and

he and Polak decided it was in the best interests of the public and the mine proponent to wait.

The Lake Babine First Nation intervened in the case, and its land

neering experts have been given until Jan. 31 to report their findings on the cause of the Aug. 4 tailings dam breach at Mount Polley, a similar open-pit mine near

Williams Lake.

Mount Polley owner Imperial Metals is nearing completion of its Red Chris project near Iskut in northwest B.C. It has all provincial

permits except for its tailings pond and the company has agreed to an independent review of its design and construction before putting it into service.

A group of Tahltan

Nation elders blocked a road to the Red Chris project after the Mount Polley incident.

“Red Chris should not be held up,” Bennett said.

A way from your problems has always been nearby Romans 8:18, “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed.”

Wow, the Bible sure does talk a lot about suffering. You would think that those people had it pretty rough back in those days?

But I guess they didn’t have cars or microwaves; they didn’t have cell phones and computers. Makes you wonder how they got by at all.

And yet, for people who seem to have everything, our society isn’t very happy is it?

It has been said of our modern culture, “never have so many had so much for so long and been so depressed about it.”

How come? Well, you don’t need to be a very observant person to see that we live in a world that struggles with hopelessness. If you have dealings with people beyond speaking about the weather or fishing, you will likely get into a conversation in which they talk about their frustrations with their career, spouse or about how their life is turning out in general.

The truth is we all have problems, but many people just cannot see any way out of their problems. They have no hope that things will eventually get better and so they lash out or withdraw.

In the verse I quoted at the beginning, the Apostle Paul gives us an alternative. He wants us to see life as an eternal proposition, that our lives on this earth are just a couple of ticks on the eternal clock.

His is a message of hope for a hopeless world and that hope is found only in Jesus Christ. He wants you to know that through faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior, there is a day coming when all the things that trouble you now will be gone.

There will be no

had passed away. And I heard a loud voice saying, ‘behold the dwelling place of God is with man. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes and death will be no more.

Neither will there be mourning, nor crying nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.’”

From the Pulpit Redeemer Lutheran Church

Pastor Clint Magnus

Pastor Clint Magnus more struggles or pain; no more death or tears. Listen to how the Apostle John describes

the return of Christ in Revelation 21; “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth for the first

That is the promise of God to every repentant heart whose faith is in Jesus Christ as their Savior.

Hope is for the future, you don’t need hope for the past. It’s done.

And so, for the believer in Christ there is hope, a sure and certain hope that one day

things will be better.

When our hope is in Christ who gave Himself for us on the cross, then our eyes will turn away from our sufferings and failings and instead turn to Christ where our true hope of eternal life lies.

And it is this future hope keeps us going through everything this

life can throw at us.

I pray that you would have this hope in Christ in your life and that you would then look to the future through different eyes, the eyes of faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior who loves you and has promised to return for you.

Amen

Sleeping in?

Whatever your plans, be sure to take a moment to reflect on the history behind this wonderful day of late summer freedom.

If you’re not familiar with the story, you may be surprised to learn that Canada is responsible for this much anticipated long weekend.

That’s right; Labour Day may be celebrated around the globe today, but it’s origins are distinctly Canadian.

On April 15, 1872, the Toronto Trades Assembly organized a p i o n e e r i n g worker’s rights demonstration. The d e m o n s t r a t i o n ’s goal was to bring about the release of 24 leaders of the Toronto Ty p o g r a p h i c a l Union who had been imprisoned for striking in support of a ninehour working day.

Regional airport expansion in the works

Public support was huge, and within a few months a similar parade was held in Ottawa.

The Northwest Regional Airport is about to embark upon a $15 million expansion of its main terminal building in response to growing passenger numbers.

By the time construction is expected to be complete in 2016, the terminal building will be 40 per cent larger than it is now with a more spacious holding area for departing passengers, new and larger check in and baggage drop off facilities, more room for security clearing and renovated office and counter space for airlines.

“We are the northwest’s regional airport and we really want to grow that,” says airport manager Carman Hendry of the project, the first part of which is to start this fall and be finished next spring.

“We want a place where people can feel comfortable, safe and secure.”

Financing will come through a firstever airport improvement fee of $7 as of November although the airport will look for

grants to defray construction costs.

“We expect to pay for the project within 10 years after which the improvement fee will be removed,” said Hendry.

The expansion project is contained within a 20-year plan commissioned by the society which runs the airport and is being started earlier than first anticipated because of continuing increases in passenger numbers.

The airport passenger count reached 177,294 in 2013 and this July, recorded a passenger count of 23,627.

Projections based on increased industrial activity to the north now that BC Hydro has completed its Northwest Transmission Line Hendry said the society’s board of directors decided to act now instead of later so that it would not have to play catch up in the years ahead. Still, said Hendry, the board will continue to take a cautious financial approach to its construc-

tion plan. And that’s to be done by dividing the expansion project into four parts, each of which being designed to stand alone if need be.

“As each stage is completed, we’ll evaluate where we are and make decisions then,” said Hendry.

The added space will reach out from the existing security clearing area portion of the terminal building. The addition will be 1,534 square metres in size and the area to be renovated within the current terminal will be 1,110 square metres for a total terminal building size of 4,101 square metres when construction is completed.

Hendry points to the larger departing passenger hold room as an example of the airport’s emphasis on passenger comfort.

The current hold room can comfortably contain about 80 people but with airlines now departing within minutes of each other, more space is needed.

What’s being

planned is a hold room of approximately 190 seats and separate departure gates for each airline.

“It means we’ll be able to service more than one aircraft at a time,” said Hendry.

New check in and baggage facilities will also improve the traffic flow for passengers prior to going through security, he added.

“We’re also looking at self serve [check in] kiosks,” Hendry continued.

The expansion will allow for two security clearing lines to be installed but only one will be built for the time being. In the meantime, work on an expanded parking area to hold up to 800 vehicles continues with a graveled surface scheduled to be ready by the beginning of winter.

Hendry said the airport is applying for grants to have the area paved. A portion of the airport’s main service road has now been rebuilt using crush uncovered during the parking lot project.

Northwest Economic Boom on the verge Shaun Thomas With the Northwest on the verge of an economic boom, the NDP critic for local government came to the region to see what municipalities are doing to prepare and what assistance they may need.

“I have been following quite closely the challenges that have been going on here in Prince Rupert, as well as communities such as Terrace, Kitimat and Port Edward. I want to hear firsthand from those local governments about what those challenges are, how they have been trying to mitigate those challenges and what they are planning for so I can help advocate for them,” said Selina Robinson.

“Right now I am looking for themes. I am going to three, possibly four communities, and there may be one-off concerns here or there but I am trying to get a sense of themes. I will likely pull out some things and identify what the common chal-

During her visit to Prince Rupert, Robinson met with Mayor Jack Mussallem and city manager Robert Long and said she “got a good lesson and grounding” about just how big the projected growth on the North Coast could be.

“I know not everything is signed off, but there is incredible potential for growth and that growth will have pros and cons.

I want to identify where there are going to be challenges,

While just beginning meetings with municipal leaders, Robinson said one thing that she has heard is that municipalities can’t accommodate the growth that is to come without support from higher levels of government.

“Local governments need to have plans and that takes people, time and resources. You have to be able to pay those people to do planning and cost estimations and what I have been hearing from communities is that they need those resources. They need upfront dollars ... they need to have resources available or the ability to generate resources,” she said, “It’s of no value to receive millions of dollars after people arrive.”

KVI grows with the times Its motto is "Where Education, Industry and Culture Come Together."

And since 2006, when the Kitimat Valley Institute as it's known now, first emerged it has held strong to that vision as an educational institute that merges culture and industry.

The Kitimat Valley Institute, perched on high ground overlooking Alexander and Kingfisher Avenue, came from a partnership of the Haisla Nation Council and Rio Tinto Alcan.

The vestiges of KVI's time as a primary school are long gone. Its halls are filled with adults seeking careers in local industries. Its gymnasium is an interactive exhibit of objects, and dangers, you might find on a work site at places like the Kitimat Modernization Project.

It's a bustling place, growing busier

each month.

Jodie Cook, who handles KVI's business development and marketing, said the institute's pool of instructors has grown immensely in just the past few years. When she began work at KVI there were two parttime instructors, today there are nine full time ones.

That's not including their list of off-site instructors.

"We have an extensive group of external instructors that have some kind of specialization or qualification," she said, saying they bring them in as their clients require.

Right now KVI has three main clients, that being Bechtel, the primary contractor for the Kitimat Modernization Project, Rio Tinto Alcan, and the Haisla.

Those three clients can equal up to three orientations a day through KVI, in addition to KVI's own

curriculum, which includes security training and camp attendant courses.

Brent Robinson, the current secretary to the board for the Kitamaat Valley Education Society which oversees KVI's operation, says getting KVI to the place we know today took some time.

It first came on his radar before 2006 when the former Alexander School was called the Mcnabb Morris Centre.

"The focus of that building was the power engineers that Eurocan needed, mainly," he said.

He was part of the initial group which pushed for a job readiness class, which would notably have helped Haisla students prepare for a career in an industry.

"The reality was our kids were not graduating with an academic grade 12," he said.

"Long story short,

that seed became the job readiness course that was very successful."

Among the early members of KVI's board is Colleen Nyce, who is the Manager, Corporate Affairs & Community Relations at Rio Tinto Alcan. She describes how KVI became a "tremendous asset" for RTA since its formation.

"Rio Tinto Alcan had a lot of training going on up there at that time," said Nyce, when KVI was still the McNabb Morris Centre. "And [McNabb] approached us. About the same time we were actively working towards a legacy agreement with the Haisla Nation and were interested in helping them build their capacity."

McNabb wanting to sell the school, together with that capacity building desire, led to RTA becoming partners to form KVI. "We set it up as a

Jodie Cook, who handles KVI’s marketing and business development, with Sherrie Little, who handles human resources. corporation and there were four directors, two from RTA, two from Haisla, and an independent chairperson," said Nyce.

Although the school was set up as a corporation at first, it was later converted to a non-profit society, in order to potentially benefit from government grants.

Nyce doesn't believe any possible grants did materialize in the end, but KVI is run sustainably, its pro-

grams paying for itself to continue running.

And being a non-profit, the money merely goes back to growing the school even more.

KVI doesn't rest on its laurels either, and plans ahead for future training needs.

They are planning on a supervisor training course that they'll put on together with the University of British Columbia, said Cook.

"That's training we've partnered with UNBC, which is great

that we can do that, extend an arm to those other educational institutes that aren't in Kitimat, but the people are in Kitimat," said Cook.

KVI, she said, was also the first to bring security training to the northwest, in 2011.

KVI worked with the security companies to figure out the training needs and their first class of nine Haisla people all had job offers before the end of the two week program.

Ceiling lifts improve safety for residents and staff Submitted A donation from the Kitimat Hospital Auxiliary has helped install ceiling lifts in all 36 rooms at the Mountainview Lodge. The lifts are used for the safe and comfortable transfer of patients or residents to their bed or wheelchair, allowing staff to not pick up residents during transfers.

Nine of the lifts and a lift for the tub room were installed thanks to the auxiliary’s donation of over $83,000.

The other 27 lifts were funded by Northern Health.

“Originally only a few rooms had ceiling lifts and residents might well be moved out of a room they had called home, because the ceiling lift in their room was needed more urgently by another resident,” said Armelle Kennedy, Kitimat Hospital Auxiliary President. “Adding to the care and comfort of patients in the hospital and of residents in the multilevel care is one of the auxiliary’s main goals. Therefore

the purchase of ceiling lifts became one of the auxiliary’s goals.”

The ceiling lifts have benefits of a smoother, more comfortable transition from one area to another. Using a ceiling lift for transferring also helps to decrease potential injuries to staff members.

“Our staff are grateful for these ceiling lifts as it helps them complete their work in a safer manner, and protects our residents and patients,” said Jonathan Cooper, Northern Health Kitimat health service administrator.

“Our relationship with the auxiliary and the local health care foundations has helped enhance care for residents of Kitimat and the surrounding area.”

The auxiliary was formed in 1958 and has made contributions of over $186,000.

Other services volunteers with the auxiliary offer include coffee service in the afternoon, weekly bingo, hairdressing, and assistance with outings including birthday celebrations.

Derby to determine the king fishers Cameron Orr Coming up on the Labour Day long weekend is the always hotly anticipated Kitimat Fish Derby.

The 27th annual derby will follow a format much the same from past years.

The main event of Fish Fest - aside from the fishing itself of course - will take place at the Kitimat Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Information Centre along Highway 37 at Forest Avenue.

There will be a DJ, as well as activities for kids and a beer - and root beer - garden.

The grand prize of $1,000 awaits whoever can haul in the largest coho.

Prizes are also in line for whoever wins in the

various divisions — Men’s largest coho, Women’s largest coho, and the Junior largest coho. Ticket holders are also eligible for prizes even without catching anything.

Tickets are for sale at City Centre Hardware and Bradley’s Bait and Tackle.

All the fish will be weighed-in at the Chamber of Commerce building, Saturday August 30 and Sunday August 31.

Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Trish Parsons is encouraging people to use the free Sunday (August 31) shuttle.

The shuttle will bring people to Fish Fest at Heritage Park from the Upper City Centre Mall drop off location.
