What to do? Parents getting creative on how to keep their children busy during teacher job action Devon MacKenzie News staff

Parents in the Saanich School District who would normally be preparing for the first week of school are instead getting creative with ideas on how to keep their children engaged during teacher job action. Alice Bacon and John Carswell, who have a son entering Grade 6 at Bayside Middle School, have started to think about ways they can ensure their child is doing something to keep his mind engaged. “I think we are in a somewhat unique position because we are both self employed so we have a slightly flexible schedule but it is still difficult to plan for what you don’t know,” Bacon explained of the uncertainty on when school may start again. “Right now we’re going on the assumption that they’re not going back on Tuesday but that could change anytime so you just don’t know.” Bacon said even things like buying school supplies have been put on hold for now. “It is tough because we want to return to a sense of routine and schedule. It’s essential for parents and kids to have that stability. Normally this final week of August is spent getting back into the routine and it’s really hard, especially for a child who is transitioning to

Teachers like Rick Williams were taking job action back in May. Teachers went on strike in late June and the strike could continue well after Sept. 2 — the scheduled start of the school year. a new school, to do that if you’re faced with such uncertainty.” Bacon said the most vital thing her and her family are doing in the face of an uncertain back-toschool date is coming together with other parents and children around the same age. “One of the things that we’ve been working on is getting together with another group of parents with kids who are the same age,” explained Bacon. “We will take turns so that we can all do something with the kids so we have an option besides just

Centre in Duncan, trips to the Martime Museum, doing art classes. “The best thing that people can take away from this is try and turn back to a sense of community. All we can do is use the resources we have at our disposal,” Bacon continued. “We can work together and expose them to things that have some value and to make the most of our friendships and community.” Bacon said many parents are echoing a sense of disbelief that the job action has gone on as long as it has.

“I really just think it’s extraordinary things have gone on as long as they have. We are lucky in our circumstance that we are slightly flexible with our work schedules. I can’t imagine what people who have inflexible work schedules will do. At this point, no matter what side they’re on, I think everyone is just hoping for a negotiated settlement.” For the latest information on back-to-school in the Saanich School District visit sd63.bc.ca or your school’s website. reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

District schools may not open Tuesday School District 63 (Saanich) would require a full day to prepare for students’ return after job action ends Devon MacKenzie News staff

Teachers and administrators in the Saanich School District are planning for the next couple of weeks of uncertainty should teacher job action continue said Dr. Keven Elder this week.

Elder, the Superintendent of Schools for SD63, said he remains optimistic that school will continue as planned next week but that the district is also preparing for the worst. “We’re all hoping for both parties to see the wisdom in mediation

and have that occur and have a settlement in hand that’s fair for teachers and good for the system. But we also know there is the possibility we will go into the weekend without a collective agreement in place in which case we won’t be in a place to

open the schools on Tuesday,” he explained. Elder said that no matter when an agreement is reached, teachers and administration will need a full day to prepare to have students in the school. “The main planning issue in front of us right now is in relation to timing of return which will determine how we start the school year. “No matter what the situation, we would need a full day to prepare for the students’ return. Ultimately, we do look forward to a great school year and we know we will have labour peace, its just a question of when.” Saanich Teachers’ Association (STA) Local President Mark Skanks

“Teachers are the best source of information. I think more teachers have been engaged in this process recently than ever before.” – Mark Skanks said that the best place people can get information from is their teachers. “Any parents who already had children in the system should have contacts in the system,” said Skanks. “Teachers are the best source of information. I think more teachers have been engaged in this process recently than ever before,” he said, adding that the STA is also hoping parents will get involved. “It really doesn’t mat-

ter what side of the dispute you’re in favour of; we’re asking people to mail, email, call their MLAs and ask that the two sides get to the table and mediate,” he said. Skanks said with teachers having been out of work since June, the STA is starting to see some of its members struggle financially. “We’ve been lucky that many teachers who are able to donate have, and we’ve raised

about $6,000 that we turned into Smile Cards for Thrifty Foods so those struggling can at least afford groceries. “We have about 500 teachers in the district, give or take, and so far about 40 have needed help for basics like groceries. We have teachers working at grocery stores, commercial fishing, cab driving, just to fill the gap. There’s definitely a lot of people suffering financially.” For up to date information on back-toschool, check your school’s website (school supply lists can also be found there) or visit the SD63’s website at sd63.bc.ca. reporter@peninsula newsreview.com

Glimmer of hope in mediation this week Jeff Nagel Black Press

VANCOUVER — B.C. students are just days away from the scheduled start of a new school year but there’s little sign of a break in the teachers strike that has dragged on through the summer. The final week of summer holiday opened Sunday with a demand in Kamloops from B.C. Teachers Federation president Jim Iker for an immediate start to mediation. No formal bargaining dates are scheduled, but Iker, Education

Minister Peter Fassbender and government negotiator Peter Cameron were to meet Wednesday afternoon in Victoria, raising hopes for some movement. Teachers have also stepped up picketing as both sides prepare for the strike to stretch into September. A mass rally outside the premier’s Vancouver cabinet offices is also set for Sept. 5. Veteran mediator Vince Ready is monitoring the talks and has indicated he will step into full mediation if it would be productive to do so. Both sides blame the other for

a gulf between positions that’s too wide for Ready to attempt to bridge. The province says the teachers’ pay and benefits demands remain far in excess of settlements reached with other public sector unions. Teachers, meanwhile, accuse the government of insisting on preconditions to talks that would unravel the union’s past court victories over the province on the stripping of contract terms on class size and special needs support.

New challenges for aquarium’s director Alison Barratt faces new challenges at Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre Steven Heywood News staff

lison Barratt is well into the first year of her tenure as executive director of the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre, bringing her passion for the ocean to Sidney from Monterey, California. Barratt was named executive director back in March and started the job on March 29. She replaced former executive director Angus Matthews, who was also one of the founders of the aquarium of the Salish Sea. Barratt has been working in marine conservation since 2000 and her last position before coming to Sidney was an interpreter at the Monterey Bay Aquarium where she trained their volunteer guides. “I’ve always had a passion for wildlife and the ocean,” she said, noting she especially loves Orca, dolphins and the California Sea Otter. In the mid-1990s, Barratt said she was traveling in California and fell in love with the wildlife there. she started by volunteering at the aquarium in Monterey Bay as a researcher in its sea otter conservation program, but said she didn’t just focus on that. “I thought that at that time I was going to go back to school to be a scientist. But I wanted to be able to reach people in their own language.” So, she became an aquarium interpreter. Her career soon took her back to her native United Kingdom to work for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. She held a position with a focus on sea birds, notably the albatross. She also worked for Sea Web, a seafood choices program that educated restau-

the chance then to see what the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre was all about. “I was very impressed with the staff and the quality of the exhibits,” she said. “It was a place where I thought I’d like to live and work.” So, after six years in California, when the executive director’s job in Sidney came up, she said she threw her hat into the ring. Five months in, Barratt is facing new challenges at the SODC, including changing its business model to increase its revenue from grants and donations and try to maintain funding from the Town of Sidney. she also wants to ensure the aquarium remains a valuable member of the community. “We offer a world-class experience,” she said of the Centre. “It’s also fun and educational. This is at the heart of what we do.” The Centre is a public, nonprofit organization, a society run by a board. Education is a big part of what they do, Barratt said, as well as offering a unique visitor experience. “It is an attraction, yes,” she continued. “So, it has to be a quality one. If people learn something along the way, then so much the better.” Barratt said she hopes to play a role in ensuring the aquarium is in Sidney for the long haul — helping ensure they can feed the fish and ensure a great experience for their visitors — which will have topped 500,000 in this, the SODC’s fifth year of operation.

Court outcome subject of opt-out clause

Head to Toe Package

Continued from page 2

The province is appealing the latest court ruling against it. Also gaining prominence in recent days has been an opt-out clause that the government has tabled that would allow either side to terminate a new collective agreement if it dislikes the ultimate court outcome from either the B.C. Court of Appeal or the Supreme Court of Canada. An education ministry spokesman said he was surprised it has become an issue now. It was disclosed in mid-June by government negotiators who pitched it as a “pragmatic and creative” way to give the union comfort it wouldn’t be handed a massive defeat in court and could therefore shelve those issues and negotiate an interim agreement while the appeal proceeds. But a BCTF spokesman said it’s the province not teachers who want an escape hatch, adding it suggests the government fears it will lose in court again and is seeking to block that outcome. He credited BCTF members on Twitter for bringing the clause into public focus. The Liberal government has promised to pay parents $40 a day for each child under 13 who misses school if the strike continues. Various organizations and businesses are scaling up their

The province also promised Tuesday to cover supported child development costs for inschool hours for special needs children now accessing services. Fassbender on Monday reiterated the government’s position that it has no desire to legislate

the teachers back to work. The lump sum payouts to parents following the end of the strike will consume all of the $12 million a day in strike savings the government would have amassed going forward. Parents can sign up for the payments at bcparentinfo.ca, a government-created website that seeks to prepare parents for an ongoing strike this fall.

Starved of plastics, Syntal Products on Keating closes Devon MacKenzie News staff

Local business Syntal Products has closed its doors only months after the introduction of the MMBC recycling program. The 16-year-old business located on Keating X Road accepted thousands of tons of used residential plastic from around the CRD and used an environmentally-friendly process to convert the scrap plastics into all-plastic lumber. “Early in July we began informing people we would be closing and told them to stop bringing their plastics to us,” explained the company’s owner, Brian Burchill. “As of Aug. 15 the last of the employees were laid of and we had closed our doors for good.” The closure, Burchill explained, was due to the fact that the MMBC program would divert about 60 per cent of the plastics coming into Syntal to other recycling companies. MMBC is a residential recycling program that came into effect this spring through regulatory changes at the Ministry of Environment. Under its Stewardship Plan, MMBC is expected to ensure approximately 75 per cent of residential recyclables in B.C. are recycled within three years. The cost of this service has been shifted from municipalities onto

Burchill was forced to close his business earlier this month due to the new MMBC recycling program. business, although critics like the Canadian Federation of Business argue this is an indirect tax on business and that the costs will be passed on to consumers. “Because about 60 per cent of the material I normally would have brought in was gone, there was no way I could find enough of the right types of plastics to make up the difference,” said Burchill of the change. “The company was no longer viable and I sold our assets to a recycling operation in Winnipeg,” he said. Burchill said when he first heard of the MMBC program he was optimistic. “A lot of it sounded

like it was based on extended producer responsibility and I thought ‘great, if the manufacturer has to step up and deal with the end of life of these products, they’ll build them out of better plastics.’ But as time went on, I started getting different impressions of what was coming. After lots of research and inquiry, I finally managed to realize our company was a processor of scrap plastics and the MMBC program catered to collectors. My hands were tied.” Burchill, who met with Saanich South MLA Lana Popham last week to discuss the closure of his business, calls the MMBC

program a legislated monopoly. Popham agrees. “The B.C. Liberals are killing small businesses in the recycling sector by gifting a monopoly over residential recycling to a handful of mega-corporations,” said Popham. “MMBC is demanding that all materials collected are siphoned off to specific big businesses it selects. That is why smaller operations like Syntal are being shut down and why small businesses across the whole sector are very concerned about being pushed under.” — With files from Samuel Godfrey

OUR VIEW

Back to school?

o they stay do go they go? As of this writing, that’s probably the biggest question on the minds of parents of school-age children. Will schools re-open on Sept. 2 as scheduled or will the labour dispute between the province and the B.C. Teachers Federation drag on into the early portion of the school year? And like many questions of its kind, the uncertainty it creates can sometimes paralyze a family. In other cases, parents are simply carrying on as if school will be in session as planned next week — buying It’s a sure bet that supplies and getting their kids geared up for the pressure ... a return to class. will grow That’s a big risk, considering both sides in the contract dispute (again, as of this writing) remain no closer to a deal. There was talk late Wednesday afternoon about a two-week cooling off period that would see teachers return to class while the parties continue to negotiate. It’s tough to know just which side would benefit from that idea, pitched by Education Minister Peter Fassbender. Teachers — because they’d be back to work and not facing empty bank accounts. The province — because they’d avoid public rankling over no schools in session or that teachers would be working under their last contract and they’d be saving money. It would also look to many people like the dispute was over — so getting teachers back on picket lines if a deal fell through would be terrible for public relations. So, is such a truce simply just a trap? Another question to be answered in this teacher-province labour quagmire. Had summer not fallen in between periods of labour strife, there would have been a deal in place by now — parents and the public would have demanded it. While questions remain, and will until there’s a deal, it’s a sure bet that the pressure on both sides will grow to a boiling point as we move further into the school year. What do you think?

Question

of the week

YOUR VIEW

Children need a good education The B.C. Liberal Party, defender of families, seems to have forgotten that families include children and children need a good education, not just babysitting. The Liberals plead that they have no money for education yet they gave in on cancelling the HST with barely a whimper knowing they needed the money for education and health. All is not lost. There are still large sources of cash for essential social services like education. As reported recently in The British Medical Journal, only 11 per cent of all current medical treatments in North America and Europe are beneficial. The rest are likely to cause harm including many deaths from prescribed medications. Our government should stop paying for these useless drugs and treatments. In addition, they should pass legislation banning donations to political parties from Big Pharma and other companies looking for favours. Heavy fines should be levied on doctors convicted of taking gifts from Big Pharma. Instead of paying Big Pharma for research to develop new drugs, the money should go to our universities and the results made public, not hidden like most of the Big Pharma test results. These small changes in government conduct could save billions for better uses. Pat Carson Sidney

Do you plan to get out of town for the last long weekend of the summer? Answer online at www.saanichnews.com

Governments must cut their activities Re: B.C. back in black, deep in debt (B.C. Views, July 23). Tom Fletcher’s column on B.C.’s operating budget and debt touches on a balance that must be examined. Some capital investments are made to reduce operating cost – some of the new building costs at Royal Jubilee Hospital does that, for example. Some improve reliability – the earthquake resistant fire hall in View Royal for example. Some add capacity – sometimes to meet demand, sometimes “just because.” In your household there is a limit based on income. Similarly in business, borrowing has to be paid back – companies often get into financial trouble from debt, such as the dysfunctional Pacific Western Airlines culture in its expanded life as Canadian Airlines. Politicians do pay some attention because credit rating agency evaluations increase cost of borrowing. Occasionally one reforms, as the profligate Bob Rae did in Ontario after getting the province into financial trouble. Provincial politicians tend to be profligate in spending, including on grandiose projects – Ontario being a current example of huge projects and mismanaged deals that will burden Ontario taxpayers for decades. Every election they try to buy votes by promising the

we asked you:

unaffordable. Governments must cut activities. The B.C. government has not addressed barriers to employment created by its quotas in agriculture and transportation, for example. It continues to spend on handouts to moochers, including companies that won’t invest in their own capability by training employees. At the same time, government must protect against initiation of force. The NDP added an additional cost barrier to individuals seeing justice – court costs. The B.C. “Liberals” have not handled criminals and mentally ill people well, and we can expect from their history of excusing behaviour that the NDP will not when they gain power again. Voters in B.C. have an opportunity to reduce operational spending by insisting on cutting activities such as interference with honest people’s attempt to build and earn, endless reports, and fancy flower beds. I advocate the savings be put into the reason for government – protecting individuals against initiation of force, which at the municipal level is by policing.

Warner new chamber boss

Denny Warner’s first task is to poll local chamber members Steven Heywood News staff

Denny Warner wants to know what people think of the Saanich Peninsula Chamber of Commerce. Warner was named the new executive director of the Chamber August 14 and her first task is to send a questionnaire to their members. She is asking business owners and operators what their needs are and how the Chamber can better serve them. It’s a big task for Warner’s first few weeks on the job, but not one that she’s unfamiliar with. Warner has been working part-time for the Chamber as a contract special events co-ordinator since 2010. More recently, she added some financial work for the Peninsula’s voice of business and has been in the office three days a week. It was only natural that when the position of executive director came up that she would throw her hat into the ring. “The board wants to have a strong relationship with this position,” she explained, “sharing common goals. Member-driven organizations are having challenges and in the short term, we want to know more about and from our members.” Warner comes with experience in the chamber world. She spent four years as executive director of the Vanderhoof chamber prior to moving to Vancouver Island. “We had more members there,” she said, “but it was a very different community. Here, this place in unique and has very different challenges, especially with having to serve three municipalities.”

Warner said what the

Warner said she has been hearing good things and tourist numbers at the Chamber-operated Visitor Centre on Beacon Avenue have been strong this summer. Warner takes on the job nine months after Chris Fudge resigned to take a position with B.C. Transit on Nov. 22, 2013. Since then, the work was done by the Chamber’s office administrator Linda Duivenvoorden, who has since taken another job. The Saanich Peninsula Chamber of Commerce is gearing up for a series of big events this fall. Their annual golf tournament takes place Sept. 9, followed by the Crystal Awards for business excellence on Oct. 23. The Chamber is also setting up all candidates forums for the 2014 municipal election in Sidney, Central Saanich and North Saanich. Tentatively, the Sidney forum will be Nov. 4 at the Mary Winspear Centre.

Managing Registered Retirement Income Fund withdrawls

Sidney

lthough some of Canada Revenue Agency’s withdrawal rules regard-

ing Registered Retirement Income Funds are quite clear, not all the options available to the

retiree are well-known. We know that in the year we turn 71 we must contact the finan-

cial institution holding our RRSP and sign a document which converts our RRSP to a RRIF. Nothing changes with respect to the investments held — it’s just a name change — we don’t even need to begin drawing funds from the RRIF until the year following. In the calendar year that we reach age 72, we must begin drawing a minimum percentage of the previous December 31 RRIF value. At this age, the minimum is set at 7.48 per cent of the RRIF value. However, an alternative is available for those whose spouse is younger. In that case, the older spouse may elect to use the age of the younger partner to determine the minimum draw required. For example, if the younger partner is 65, the minimum draw required would be reduced to 4.0 per cent. Taking advantage of the reduced draw can be particularly helpful to those who, having

Summer

DINING

Peter Dolezal

Financial Savvy reached 72, are well enough off financially to not need the 7.48 per cent specified for their age. They can reduce the draw, based on their younger spouse’s age, and leave a higher balance in their RRIF account, letting it continue to grow and compound tax-free for a longer period. Each year, of course, they will need to increase the percentage draw slightly, in line with that dictated by the spouse’s age. Draws from RRIF accounts are not limited to only the minimums specified. The retiree may exceed the minimum draw by any amount — however,

taxes on the total withdrawal will be payable at the RRIF holder’s full marginal tax rate. A retiree need not wait until age 71 to convert to a RRIF, and to age 72 before commencing draws. An RRSP can be converted to a RRIF any time after age 55, as long as draws commence no later than the following calendar year. The minimum percentage draw will be set in accordance with the RRIF holder’s age the year the draw first occurs. A retiree may wish to start draws well before age 72 if, for example, the funds are required to maintain a desired lifestyle; or, perhaps the RRSP is so large that if allowed to grow to the holder’s age 72 without draws, it would then trigger a claw-back of some, or all, of the OAS benefit. OAS clawback begins if an individual’s taxable income exceeds approximately $71,000 in any given year; the full benefit of

OAS is lost at taxable incomes over $116,000. Once draws from a RRIF commence, the account holder can choose how the funds are withdrawn. They can be taken monthly, quarterly, or in a lumpsum once a year — as long as the total drawn meets or exceeds the specified minimum amount. A retiree may not need the cash on a monthly basis; he/she can instead opt to wait until December to withdraw the total annual amount. This allows the funds to remain invested for almost the entire year, before withdrawal of the payment. There are those who choose to top-up their annual $5,500 TFSA eligibility each January, by drawing the RRIF funds in December, and in the next month, adding some or all of those funds to their TFSA.

Every retiree has different needs is added to that individual’s income in his/her final year, and is taxed fully. It is therefore important that retirees set their annual RRIF draws at a high enough level that their eventual estate is not likely to be left with a huge, fully-taxable RRIF balance. Every retiree has different needs. How to manage a RRIF, and the withdrawals from it, will vary with each individual. However, it is important to be aware of all the options which are available. If necessary, ask a family member, a good friend, or your accountant, to help you deter-

Others plan to use the December lump sum RRIF draw as their vacation fund for the following year. Whatever the reason, it is important to be aware that this option exists for all RRIF holders. One last consideration to keep in mind: A couple will normally designate one another as the beneficiary on a RRIF account.

Five student worthy cars under ten grand By Bob McHugh

Finding five used cars under ten grand doesn’t sound like too big a challenge, until a “for a college student” stipulation is added. In my mind, this adds a few requirements as the car has to be, easy on fuel, reliable, easy to park, good on gas, thrives on abuse, room for friends, room for a bike and camping gear, super fuel efficient ... and look good! So, bearing in mind the last requirement is a highly subjective one and ignoring the (no brainer) most popular car in Canada (Honda Civic), here are five vehicle suggestions – in no particular order:

Pontiac Vibe (2010 or older): Although the Pontiac Vibe looks different, you also know this compact 4-door hatchback as the Toyota Matrix. A joint (GM/Toyota) production venture ended with the 2010 model year, as did the Pontiac brand. The resale value of a Vibe is generally lower than a same year/condition Matrix, or conversely, you may be able to buy a newer/lower mileage Vibe. The ’09 Vibe was a second generation redesign and a slightly bigger model

that came in front-drive and all-wheeldrive editions, and in base and GT trim levels. The base engine is a gas-miser 1.8-litre (132 horsepower) and a 2.4-litre (158 horsepower) engine comes in the AWD and GT models. Fuel consumption (1.8L/FWD): 8.0/6.2 L/100 km (city/highway) Fuel consumption (2.4L/AWD): 10.3/7.8 L/100 km (city/highway)

Honda Fit (2010 or older): The Honda Fit is a small, but taller, 4-door hatchback that was introduced for the 2007 model year and came in DX, LX and Sport trim levels. Its seats can be reconfigured in an amazing variety of ways and there’s even a couch/bed recliner position. The 2009 model was a second generation redesign with a more powerful 117 horsepower (up from 109-horsepower) 1.5-litre engine that’s mated to either a five-speed manual transmission or optional five-speed automatic. In the Sport edition, this automatic also comes with paddle shift gear selection at the steering wheel. Fuel consumption (1.5L/FWD): 7.1/5.5 L/100 km (city/highway)

Jeep Patriot (2010 or older): The Patriot could also be called “Jeep Light”, as it’s an affordable, compact yet capable SUV/wagon that’s surprisingly fuel-efficient. Available in both frontdrive and four-wheel-drive configurations, Jeep launched Patriot for the 2007 model year and it’s a good match of an active lifestyle young person that enjoys the outdoors. Patriot came in Sport, North and Limited trim levels and the base engine is a 2.0-litre that can produce 158-horsepower and 2.4-litre that can produce 172 horsepower is the upgrade. The transmissions offered were a 5-speed manual transmission or a fuel-efficient CVT (continuously variable transmission) automatic. If serious 4-wheeling is contemplated look for models with a trail-rated Freedom II off-road package that adds protective skid plates, etc. The downside is increased weight and higher fuel consumption.

Nissan Versa (2011 or older): The Nissan Versa may look small on the outside, but this four-door sedan or hatchback has an amazing amount of space on the inside. The extra head and leg room provided make it a very good match for a taller or bigger than average young person. Versa offers seating for four (squeeze five) full-sized adults and extra-large rear passenger doors also make getting in or out easier. The lower-priced sedan comes with a 1.6-litre (107-horsepower) engine and a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. The hatchback comes with a 1.8-litre (122-horsepower) engine and a 6-speed manual, 4-speed automatic or a CVT automatic. Prior to 2010, a base Versa didn’t come with ABS (anti-lock braking system), and electronic stability control wasn’t even offered as an option. Its electronic-assist steering has an extra-light feel and it can turn on a (10.4 m) dime, making Versa an easy vehicle to park. Fuel consumption (1.6L/FWD): 7.7/5.8 L/100 km (city/highway – 5 Manual) Fuel consumption (1.8L/FWD): 8.5/6.2 L/100 km (city/highway – 4 Automatic) Fuel consumption (1.8L/FWD): 7.3/5.8 L/100 km (city/highway - CVT)

Fuel consumption (2.0L/FWD): 8.9/6.9 L/100 km (city/highway) Fuel consumption (2.4L/4WD): 9.9/8.2 L/100 km (city/highway)

Mazda3 (2009 or older): The first generation Mazda3 (2004 to 2009) set a new performance standard in the economy car segment. Sold as a four-door sedan or a (sportier) five-door hatchback, the Mazda3 has been a huge sales success in Canada. The four-door sedan editions of this Mazda3 come with (148-horsepower) 2.0-litre engine and in GX and GS trim levels. Sedan GT and (hatchback) Mazda3 Sport come in GS and GT trim levels and with a (156-horsepower) 2.3-litre engine, with more torque at lower engine speeds. A height adjustable, good supporting driver’s seat plus a standard tilt and telescopic steering column make the Mazda3’s driving position particularly praiseworthy. It definitely offers the best driving experience, but popularity also makes Mazda3 the priciest pick of this group. Fuel consumption (2.0L/FWD): 8.4/6.1 L/100 km (city/highway) Fuel consumption (2.3L/FWD): 9.5/6.8 L/100 km (city/highway)

Reviewing the attributes of these car leads me to suggest there’s at least one suitable for anybody on a budget. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

NEWS REVIEW

DrivewayBC.ca

Taking the rocky mountain way To say the drive from Vancouver to Calgary offers scenic vistas galore would be an understatement. And the opportunity to drive it the all-new 2015 Volkswagen GTI made it still more irresistible an opportunity. Time constraints allowed only for the most direct route there; taking the Trans-Canada, the 3, the 5 and then again onto the Highway 1. Appreciating the incredible topographical features the Trans Canada has to offer is something I don’t always do. But with a passenger from Ontario ogling the scenery changes, it made me proud to live in such a spectacular place. Okay, I was a lot proud. Whether driving surrounded by lush, emerald vegetation, desert or engulfed in mountain, there was no shortage of ocular stimulation in our 360 view. Furthermore, the GTI is no sleeper either. In fact, it’s probably my favourite VW on the market. And it got a lot better for 2015. Now in its seventh generation, it’s lighter than Golf Mk6, bigger, more T:8.5” T:8.5” fuel efficient, more powerful, and just more awesome. For a starting T:8.5” T:8.5”

The GTI builds on its razor sharp handling, improves the suspension and allows the driver to still have a great time behind the wheel. Not to mention, the 6-speed manual gearbox – it also comes in a 6-speed DSG automatic – is as smooth in shifts as can be. Being stuck in city traffic isn’t ideal, but when you can rev the engine a little higher, wait to shift and breathe in the excitement of the turbocharged ponies, what more can you ask for? You could also ask for beautiful scenery. Check. Prior to Revelstoke, if you’re heading east, there’s 3 Valley Gap. It appears almost out of nowhere. Looking like a cross between a Swiss chalet – no, not the place where you get a quarter chicken dinner – and an establishment you might recall from a Stephen King novel, this building that has more than 200 rooms reflects effortlessly on the lake in front of it. With the mountains towering over, the heritage ghost town certainly has some, er, charm. However, the strongest charm in the drive comes from the GTI. You could even say it’s the grandfather, or the inspiration for the term “hot hatch.” It’s not only hot in appearance, but in personality. It’s a car that does everything and does it well. It’s quiet at highway speeds. It’s tame in traffic, but inspiring on the twisty roads. And even on the track. It can also be entertaining. With the promise of wildlife “for the next 3 km,” my driving partner and I eagerly anticipated the sighting of some sort of horned mammal. A mountain goat would do. We’d even be okay with a bear. But alas, no such luck. Not even with a jaunt through Banff National Park. That’s okay, the premium Fender audio system did a good job of distracting our melancholy thoughts from the lack of wildlife sightings to the musical stylings of rock and roll. The adventure was fun, the surroundings breathtaking, and then mixing it with a car that has the complete package? Now that’s a road trip to remember.

CAMPUS NISSAN Ford Transit Connects By Ian Harwood

The 2014 Ford Transit Connect is a multi-purpose cargo van that could be a great addition to any size of business.

Looks:

In The Cab:

The driver’s seat is manually adjustable (sixway) with built-in armrest while the passenger has a four-way manually adjustable seat. Just like most cargo vans of today, the cab has the features once reserved

Safety first:

Standard front and side air bags will keep you safe in the event of a collision. Fourwheel anti-lock brakes and a tire pressure-monitoring system are standard. For security, Ford has developed a locking latch shielded door lock system to help keep your contents safe.

Power:

This vehicle is powered by a Duratec 2.5 litre four cylinder, mated to a six speed select shift automatic transmission. It puts out 169 horsepower and 171 lb ft of torque. There is also a 1.6L EcoBoost I-4 engine available with 178 horsepower and 184 lb ft of torque. Continued on next page

YOUR HEALTH

President’s own story: 15 years ago I started to have arthritis, prostate, kidney, snoring and sleep apnea problems, which were all helped quickly with natural health products. I made it my life’s purpose to help others. Nick A. Jerch

ARTHRITIS

Helps to relieve joint pain associated with osteoarthritis. Guaranteed also for rheumatoid and sciatica, (My own affliction). Truthful actual experiences from real people: < For 40 years I had injections and drugs and finally Bell Shark Cartilage spared me the endless torture I suffered day and night. Pat Laughlin, Coldwater, ON <My hip is 95% pain free. Pain killing drugs mask and Bell Shark Cartilage heals. Rebecca Hite, Oroville, CA<I tried another brand and pain came back. 2 weeks on Bell and pain is gone again. Gert Dupuis, Hanmer, ON<I suffered for years. I tried everything and finally after taking a specially processed shark cartilage I was pain free in 2 weeks. After this experience I realized I could help many of those 5 million Canadian that suffer every day and night and I started to sell this same type of shark cartilage and helped hundreds of thousands of men and women to #1 NPN 80042283 have less pain or no pain at all. Nick A. Jerch, President of Bell Lifestyle Products. <Many people on our website write: “Can walk again for hours”;”Can climb stairs without hanging on to railing”;”First time in 15 years can sleep at night” Rheumatoid arthritis in joints down 90%, same for my sister…hundreds of testimonials all with full names and towns. Shark bones/cartilage was a previously thrown away by-product of the food industry. No sharks are caught for their cartilage. Don’t let any activist confuse you.

My experience in the last 4 years is that whenever I feel symptoms of an infections I take two capsules for a day or two and the infection is gone. I love this product. Pat Pearce, 53, Brantford, ON < 30 years of bladder infections gone! For 30 years my doctor prescribed antibiotics. As soon as the medication finished the next bladder infection came back. After 2 days taking Bell # 31 I noticed a complete relief of my infection I had all these 30 years. God bless you all for helping all of us women. Emell Whitaker, 69, Bronx, NY< Bladder infections kept on coming back. Since starting Bell Bladder & Yeast Infection #31 my infection was gone and I now take it from time to time for prevention and I have no more bladder or yeast infections. I told family and friends how good Bell products are. Thank you! Maria Racz, 60, Vancouver, BC <Went to the bathroom 10 times in an hour and more frequently at night!. In the last 2 years I went a number of times to the doctor and got different antibiotics and none of them worked. My urination would burn enormously. I bought #31 NPN 80038535 your Bell Bladder & Yeast infection #31. I can now work all day or sleep all night without getting up to go to the bathroom.

Continued from previous page

Roadworthy:

While driving this Ford Transit Connect you feel like you’re driving a 2WD Ford Ranger. You’re able to manouevre around vehicles in tight parking lots and park in small parking spots, the only difference is you have a walk in cargo box on the back. This van would be perfect to convert into a special purpose van; it would be easy to add a wheel chair ramp or a lift without having to do too much modification.

Verdict:

All though this van has been available in the UK for many years, it has only been available in North American since 2011. The popularity of the Transit has increased substantially its introduction thanks to its versatility and size. It is here to stay.

PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW - Friday, August 29, 2014

Proposed multi-family condo offers Town $30,000 Steven Heywood News staff

Sidney town council is considering a 2.5 storey, multi-family oceanfront building on First Street as proposed by Baumeister Haus Enterprises Ltd. Councillors heard a presentation on the plans from Silvia Bonet of Finlayson Bonet Architects at their August 11 meeting. The design calls for 14 units on a long and narrow site. The owners have offered the Town a $30,000 ame-

nity contribution for parks and pedestrian improvements, in exchange for higher density (six additional units for a total of 14). Bonet told council the site is zoned for multi-family use but the developer is seeking a variance to allow for the higher density. While the site is long and narrow, Bonet said the design of the proposed building will spilt it in two, to allow for better sight lines and spacing between them and two neighbouring condo buildings.

The First Street side of the structure will also be stepped back to keep a valuable tree in place. On the ocean side, the design allows for green space to create a separation between the building and a nearby pedestrian walkway. The developer is also allowing for a pedestrian right-of-way between the ocean walkway and First Street. The units themselves, said Bonet, will range from 1,400 to 1,600 square feet. There

will be 16 parking stalls — 14 for the units and two guest spaces.

Council voted to see merit in that proposal — and in the $30,000

amenity contribution — and to forward the plan on to its Advisory

Planning Commission for review and comment.

NEWS REVIEW

The costumes, sets and props are moved, the workshop is set up and Peninsula Players are beginning their rehearsals for their first show as partners with the Mary Winspear Centre in November. The two groups signed a partnership agreement at the end of May after the Players were informed they would have to move from their location in the old Saanichton Elementary School

building as the Saanich School District was expanding their programming there. “We started looking for somewhere to go because we knew we had to be out of the space by August,” explained the Players’ President, Marketa Mellows. The two groups came together in the spring and by the end of May they had signed the agreement that would make them partners. “It was a logical choice,” said Philip Sutton, the theatre manDevon MacKenzie/News staff

Mary Winspear Centre Theatre Manager Philip Sutton and Peninsula Players President Marketa Mellows sign the agreement for the Players’ upcoming show Mousetrap which will take the stage in November. ager, who signed the agreement with Mellows for the Players’ newest show Mousetrap last week. “It’s hugely beneficial for both organizations and it’s another way for us to entrench ourselves in the arts community.” Peninsula Players have been a cornerstone in the arts community on the Saanich Peninsula since they officially began in 1953 said Mellows. The Players have been performing at the Mary Winspear Centre and Berwick Royal Oak for years and more recently have branched out to performing at Muse Winery in the summers. “All that will still continue in the new partnership,” assured Sut-

ton, adding that the Winspear will take over some duties for things like poster printing and most of the ticket sales. “It’s exciting for us to be in a new home and to be starting rehearsals for our first show as the resident theatre company,” said Mellows. The group will perform Mousetrap (a classic Agatha Christie murder mystery) in the first week of November at the Winspear, directed by Geoff Davidson. Audtions for the Players’ Christmas Panto A Christmas Carol will also take place Sept. 9, 13 and 14 at the Winspear.

Art show, dinner to benefit Winspear Centre Devon MacKenzie News staff

An event being held in September at the Mary Winspear Centre will give the opportunity for patrons to give back to the centre while enjoying worldclass art. The Winspear Art Show, Sale and Dinner will take place on Saturday, Sept. 13 and will feature a dinner by Island Culinary’s Red Seal Chef Graham Little and live musical entertainment from local young performers. The art, which was donated to the Centre by over 30 artists, will be auctioned off in a silent auction and proceeds will go to support the Centre’s capital improvement plan. “What a lot of people don’t realize is that unlike most community centres that are funded almost entirely by some level of government, the Winspear Centre only receives 27.5 per cent of our funding from the local municipalities,” explained the Centre’s Executive Director, Bradley Edgett. “The rest of our operating budget comes from shows, room rentals and long term clients of ours like Peninsula Yoga. So the show, auction and dinner next week are a way for us to fundraise for the Centre while still giving something back to our patrons.” Edgett added that the art that will be on silent auction during the evening was donated by popular artists like Craig Benson, Roy Henry Vickers, Bill Boyd, Cliff Bowes and Kevin Cranmer. “It should be a wonderful evening,” said Edgett. Tickets for the event are $76 and funds raised from the ticket sales and the art auc-

2.70%

Devon MacKenzie/News staff

This piece by Craig Benson is just one of the many art pieces that have been donated for the Mary Winspear Centre Art Show which takes place on Sept. 13. tion will go directly into the capital improvement plan. The Winspear Centre was opened in 2001, and as it is approaching its 14th year in use, Edgett said the Centre is looking to amass funds to keep the facility in good shape. “It’s one of those

things, people might not feel like the building is old yet, but there are always things that need to be done to maintain a facility like this,” he said, noting that the Centre had a capital improvement study done last year which indicated what improvements were

needed in what time frame. “In the next 15 years as the facility moves into latter part of its life span we’re going to have to look at putting about $2.5 million into the facility to keep it up,” he said. Things like a new roof and a new HVAC system for the building are more immediate needs for the facility, which will be replaced in the handful of years thanks to fundraising initiatives like the art show. An added bonus for attendees of the event will be entered into a draw to win a piece from Edgett’s personal collection “Cedar Child” by Kevin Cranmer.

There’s an important step Nicole Wilford wants people to remember when they are considering purchasing a new home — whether it be their first time or umpteenth time. And that’s to take into account the mortgage. For many people, a mortgage is a fact of life when it comes to buying a house. Wilford, a mortgage broker with Slegg Mortgage in Sidney, says it can often be forgotten when the search for the perfect house begins. Often, the mortgage can determine just how much house a person or couple can buy. And it doesn’t stop there. Costs — taxes, utilities, upkeep, fees, closing costs and more can add to the total cost of a new home and to the mortgage. This, said Wilford, gets more important the closer people are to the minimum down payment of five per cent. “For many people, they don’t think of these costs until after they start searching for a new house. I think they need to start with their potential mortgage first, to see how much they qualify for. People may even want to see a financial advisor for a complete overview of what they can comfortably afford.” For most people, their monthly budget is the bottom line. Wilford

Steven Heywood/News staff

Slegg Mortgage broker Nicole Wilford says mortgage brokers can help home buyers determine the best product for their needs — as well as help folks tally up the costs of buying a new house. said a broker can help deliver that entire picture and find a style of mortgage that’s right for them. While each individual situation is unique, Wilford said there can be a variety of mortgage choices — from traditional financial institutions to mortgage-specific companies and private lenders. They can be limited in scope when people only have the minimum five per cent down pay-

ment — or more varied if potential buyers have more money to put towards the purchase price. One of the more popular types of mortgages, she continued, is a Purchase Plus Improvements mortgage. “This could be good for someone who only has the minimum down payment and needs cash for renovations of a house in their price range.” Other options, such as using

RRSPs or gifts toward down payments can also be discussed. Wilford’s job, she explained, is to help clients find the right lender to meet their situation. What will help, she said, is if buyers come prepared, know how much they can afford and are prepared to do a little financial work to help make their dream of home ownership come true. “That will make it a stronger deal.”

ICBC seeks new rate hike Distracted driving cited as injury claims rise Jeff Nagel Black Press

ICBC is asking regulators to approve a 5.2 per cent increase in basic auto insurance rates. The public auto insurer said the rate hike would cost the average customer an extra $40 per year if approved by the B.C. Utilities Commission. The rate hike is to take effect Nov. 1 on an interim basis while the BCUC reviews the application. A previously approved 5.2 per cent rate hike that took effect in 2013-14 means drivers will soon be paying 10.4 per cent more than they did in 2012 for basic coverage. ICBC blamed the latest increase on a continued rise in injury claims costs paid to crash victims for pain and suffering, future care and lost wages. Bodily injury claims hit $1.9 billion in 2013, up $73 million from 2012 and by more than $500 million from five years earlier. Legal and medical costs are also up. Drivers’ rapidly growing use of cellphones and other personal electronic devices behind the wheel is one of the factors ICBC cited for the rise in injury claims. Distracted driving is the second leading cause of fatal car crashes in B.C. – killing 88 people a year – and is the leading cause of rear-end crashes

that often cause injuries, spokesman Adam Grossman said. A new campaign against distracted driving is to roll out in September. Grossman was unable to provide details justifying why basic rates should be 10.4 per cent higher than 2012 when the injury claim cost increase from 2012 to 2013 was only four per cent. The full rate hike application is to be filed Friday. Consumers Association of Canada president Bruce Cran said it continues a pattern of steeper increases in basic rates on which ICBC has a monopoly but more restraint on optional coverage rates where it must compete. He also took aim at the provincial government’s continued raiding of ICBC coffers for general revenue. The province has budgeted to pull $200 million from ICBC this year, $155 million next year and $125 million in 2016, down from $237 million in 2013 and $576 million in 2010. Cran said he doesn’t “give a damn” about ICBC and government claims the yearly dividends to the province come only from the optional side and don’t affect basic rates. “We see it a as one corporation,” he said. “As long as they’re stealing our money by the million by transferring it into government revenues, no matter which division they claim it from, we are being gouged as a public.” Cran called it a stealth tax on people who drive vehicles that is “absolutely disgraceful.”
