Province eyes longer school year Fassbender aims to make Grade 12 students ‘whole’ Jeff Nagel and Kevin Laird Black Press

Arnold Lim/News staff

Music man Local composer Jared Richardson, 20, has big dreams for his music career. The young View Royal resident has started a kickstarter campaign aiming for $45,000 to have the Victoria Symphony orchestra record a full-length studio album composed by him. The dream isn’t so far fetched as you would think. Symphony music director Tania Miller, who has worked with Richardson in the past, said the young musician has a bright future in music. For the story, please turn to page A7.

Tastes so Gouda!

Education Minister Peter Fassbender says the province may take extraordinary steps to ensure senior secondary students’ school year is not cut short by the teachers strike. That could mean adding days to the school calendar later in the year, he said, to ensure Grade 12 students in particular complete their courses and get all the marks they need. “Do you put it on the end of the year? Do you take it out of Spring Break? Do you take it out of Christmas holidays? My staff are looking at all of the options,” Fassbender said. “It’s going to depend on how long this drags out. Whatever length of time it takes to get this settled, we will do everything we can to make sure the school year is kept whole for those students.” It’s unclear how the government would finance adding extra days of classes later when all of the $12 million per day in strike savings may be consumed by the province’s offer of $40-a-day payments to parents. As of last week, 63 per cent of parents of eligible public school children under 13 had signed up for the $40 payments, which are expected to be made as a lump sum after the strike ends.

VICTORIA NEWS - Wednesday, September 10, 2014

Coming soon to Fort St.: parklet Unique project turns parking spaces into patio and seating area Andrea Peacock News Staff

Fort Street will be getting a new unique public space next year thanks to a recent $10,000 grant from Coastal Community Credit Union. The space, known as a parklet, is a public urban park made up of a patio and seating area. It will take up two parallel parking stalls on Fort Street. The exact location is yet to be determined. The Fort Street Business Association, Fabulous Fort, hosted a pilot event last week, in which four temporary parklets were set up along the 700-block of Fort Street. “They’re really nice especially on streets like this where there are a lot of cafes to have a place for people to sit down and enjoy their coffee,” said Jayne Bradbury owner of Fort Realty. Bradbury initially came up with the idea for the parklet after seeing them in places such as Vancouver and San Francisco. “I see the success of them in other cities,” said Bradbury. “I think Victoria has so much potential to become a really fantastic modern city [that] still reflects on its heritage and where it’s come from and respects its history.” Jayne’s sister Suzanne Bradbury, also of Fort Realty and co-

chair of Fabulous Fort, worked on the grant proposal for the parklet. “The businesses today essentially want to demonstrate to the city how much they support efforts to reanimate our downtown to make it more accessible to people to make it more vibrant for the people that live down here,” said Suzanne. “Spaces like this function almost like a living room for people who live down here and also people who work.” While the parklet may end up in front of a particular business once the location is decided, Suzanne emphasized it is not meant for customers of one business. “It has to be open to the public,” she said. Greg Damant, one of the architects with Cascadia Architects who designed the parklet said the space will add to downtown Victoria’s distinct identity. “It’s a relatively cost-effective and quick way to revitalize in terms of the streetscape,” he said. The addition of a public sitting space in an urban area will be a good mix for the city, said Suzanne. “The most livable cities are cities that are designed to answer the needs of people as well as the needs of cars, so this does that,” she said. The parklet will be semi-permanent in that it can be put up when the weather is nice through the spring and summer and disassembled during the winter months. Teri Hustin, co-chair of Fabulous Fort, said the goal is to have the parklet ready by next March. andrea.peacock@vicnews.com

Project draws ire of downtown residents Andrea Peacock News staff

Tristan Trotter

A proposal to develop the current St. Andrews School site is going to public hearing tomorrow (Sept. 11). The proposal, by Bosa Properties, includes ground-floor retail space and 211 residential units in a four- to sixstorey building. A group of neighbourhood residents took to

the street to protest the proposal last week and to encourage others to attend the public hearing. Tristan Trotter, Mason Street resident, said the main concerns are that a single grocery store would be put into the retail space and the effects of traffic as a result. “We don’t need a huge grocery store that will have an impact on local small

businesses,” said Trotter. More than 150 vehicles are anticipated to enter and exit the parkade onto Mason Street during peak hours. Victoria Coun. Geoff Young said he expects many speakers at the public hearing, due to the controversy of the proposal. He said according to the traffic department staff at the city, major develop-

final

ments such as this should be serviced from the least trafficked street – which in this case, is Mason Street. “There’s a big contrast to having entrance to a big commercial development near these houses,” said Young. “Quite possibly that part of Mason Street on the north side may have further development in the future.” Young added the proposed plan is consistent

10.375" X 2.857

with the idea of having more people living downtown and having a strong commercial sector downtown. “The controversial part is that as the downtown expands, you will have areas where you have low density development right near newer higher density development,” said Young. The public hearing will take place at City Hall at 7 p.m.

Serving up ribs and hot cars Andrea Peacock News Staff

Looking at classic cars and eating ribs might seem like an unlikely combination, but in Esquimalt, an estimated 25,000 people will do just that this weekend. The third annual Rods and Rides free car show takes place Saturday (Sept. 13) in conjunction with the Esquimalt Rib Fest, taking place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The car show and the rib festival serve as fundraisers for the annual Esquimalt Celebration of Lights. Organizers are hoping to use the money to expand the end-of-year celebration this year. “Eventually we’ll have the whole municipality lit up,” said Dini Fiorin, chairman of Esquimalt’s Celebration of Lights. “This is a long term plan.” This year’s car show will not only feature vintage cars, but there will be a range of vehicles all the way to electric. The Victoria Leaf Club, an electric car club, will have around 20 cars at the show. “It’s to show all different kinds of cars and transportation history,” said Lorne Argyle, organizer of the car show. “Come see what’s happened in the last 70 years.” Fiorin will be showing several of his classic cars, including his 1947 Pontiac, which he has had for 35 years. Fiorin has five vintage cars, ranging from a 1927 Chevrolet truck to a 1965 Pontiac convertible. “They’re fun to work with,” said Fiorin. The Victoria Fire Department Historical Society will also be bringing three of its historic fire trucks. While both events this weekend are

Young modellers sought for contest Greater Victoria scale model builders are looking for the most promising young model builders. And there will be plenty of prizes when the winners are announced at the annual Island Classic Model Contest and Exhibition on Sept. 27. The Island Classic is open to all categories of scale models including automotive, aircraft, nautical, military, space, science-fiction and figures. Although there have always been classes and categories for junior and intermediate modelers at the annual contests, this year an extra effort is being made to encourage youngsters to get involved with model building. The initiative for this was the death last spring of local model builder Harry Page whose wish was to have young people enjoy the hobby he loved. A new annual award has been created by Page’s family and local model builders for the top young modeler under 19. The prize includes the young modelers name engraved on a perpetual Harry Page Memorial Trophy. The winning modeler will also receive a $50 gift certificate, a model building workbench and a subscription to a modelling magazine. The winner will be chosen through balloting by all the entrants at the Island Classic. The Island Classic Model Contest & Exhibition is open to the public at 9 a.m. on Sept. 27 at the Salvation Army Citadel Auditorium 4030 Douglas St., off MacKenzie Street.

Greater Victoria School Board chair Peg Orcherton said the district continues to incur costs related to the strike including salaries for school administration as well as support staff with other unions that are eligible to be compensated for pay lost for not crossing teacher picket lines. She added a school year extension will also come with added costs for support staff who are usually hired on a 10-month contract. Education ministry officials said school districts would be consulted on any potential changes to the school year to mitigate the strike. But Orcherton said she’s heard nothing so far and predicts once the teachers’ strike ends school districts will be offered a number of

options to deal with their budget if the school year is extended. “It all depends on how long it goes,” she said. “It’s not going to be easy.” Talk of calendar adjustments is another sign of possible long-term implications from the strike, even though it has only disrupted the first few days of the new school year. Parents have scrambled for limited space for child care, day camps, tutors and even private school placements for their children. editor@vicnews.com

Benefit concert aids cancer patients Nicole Cushing knows all too well the effects cancer can have on not only the patient but their family and friends. Four years ago Cushing lost her childhood friend to cancer, and her father now has terminal cancer. Founder of the non-profit organization Shared Hope Society, Cushing now makes it her mission to raise money for families and individuals affected by cancer. Funds are given to those people through gift cards or cheques for non-medical expenses such as going out for dinner or to the movies. While there are other organizations that help with medical expenses, Cushing said when someone or a family member has cancer, they often have to give up some of the extras in life. “There’s a lot of things you miss out on in life,” Cushing said.

Besides the fund for non-medical expenses, Cushing has also created a bursary program for education funding for those impacted by cancer. The benefit, an all-ages rock concert, takes place Sept. 27 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. at Knox Presbyterian Church at 2964 Richmond Rd. The first performance starts at 6 p.m. Performances range from rock bands to contemporary dancers, a poetry reading and hula hoopers. Admission is by donation, but Cushing hopes to raise a couple thousand dollars. “All proceeds go to families affected by cancer,” said Cushing. “It’s about having a good time, raising money and raising awareness.” For more information, visit sharedhopesociety.com or Shared Hope Society’s Facebook page. andrea.peacock@vicnews.com

Young musician has high hopes to ‘Kickstart’ Victoria Symphony Composer Jared Richardson wants to rent symphony for his first album Arnold Lim News staff

Composer Jared Richardson is hoping to make a very special music album. Instead of making an album in a home studio or in his basement like many young musicians are doing, the View Royal resident has started a Kickstarter campaign to raise $45,000 to hire the entire 60-member orchestra from the Victoria Symphony to perform nine original compositions for his first full-length studio album. “I think it would be a great honour and it a very special thing. I have (had) a big connection with the Victoria Symphony over the past four years so it is exciting to be able to (reach for) this,” Richardson, 20, said. “To have an actual album recorded by a professional orchestra, it would take my career to a whole new level.” The Spectrum high school graduate connected with the Victoria Symphony four years ago after submitting one of his compositions to be performed by the orchestra. Not only was he selected as one of five across the province to secure a coveted

reading by the symphony, he ended up impressing symphony musical director Tania Miller along the way. “The first time Jared had a piece read by us it was an instant success. His sense of how to (compose) for an orchestra was vastly superior to what you would expect from a 16 year old,” Miller said.

“To have an actual album recorded by a professional orchestra, it would take my career to a whole new level.” – Jared Richardson “I thought it was so successful I decided to put it into the Symphony Splash and Jared became the first ever young Splash composer at the age of 16.” Miller said she is extremely picky about the music she selects for their signature annual event, yet she decided to perform his song Winds of Kananaskis to a crowd of approximately 40,000 spectators. Different compositions were performed by the Victoria Symphony for two years

after that, until Richardson left the University of Victoria’s music program to study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston in the hopes of following in the footsteps of John Williams and Howard Shore as music composers for movies. It is a dream he continues to work towards today. “I think it can be done. He is an artist and it is about people being inspired by his art. What is great about his music is he has already inspired a lot of people in Victoria,” Miller said. “He’s really got a name already for himself and a lot of people are (already) supporting him.” Only $1,500 of the $45,000 has been funded so far, but despite the pressure of an Oct. 31 deadline, he is confident he will have his album in 2015. “It is a pretty huge but I think there is a good chance of it happening,” Richardson said. “I am working on doing everything I can to get the word out about it. We will see where it goes from there.” For more information or to donate to Richardson’s Kickstarter campaign, please go online to jared-richardson.com. editor@vicnews.com

OUR VIEW

Civic elections need diversity Civic candidates are coming forward for our consideration. In some ways, the race is already on, leading up to the municipal election Nov. 15. On that date, Victoria and Esquimalt residents will be entrusted to elect a mayor, city councillors and school trustees who will represent us for the next four years. Some people have indicated their intentions; many have yet to go public. Diversity Candidates can’t formally creates a declare until the end of the month, Sept. 30 at 9 a.m. broader and they have another perspective 10 days after that (Oct. in our political 10) before the deadline to hand in nomination system packages. We hope, most of all, that there will be strong candidates, but we hope also that there will be a variety of candidates. At the moment, five of Victoria’s nine city council members are women, three out of seven on Esquimalt council, and seven out of nine on the Greater Victoria school district. Beyond gender, there can be a place at the council table for candidates of any age, ethnic background, sexual orientation, social standing or political leaning. Rather than categorize and divide us, these diversities can create a broader perspective. Compromise and co-operation are a part of democracy. Of course we realize that counting councillors by gender – or any classification – is an oversimplification. Candidates will be judged on their merit, their character, their priorities and promises, their strength and smarts, their motivation, their intentions. We hope that this fall, voters will have the chance to elect just the sort of representatives we’re looking for, both men and women. What do you think?

labour strife, the B.C. public school curriculum is being refashioned for this new age. Among its goals is to “allow teachers and students the flexibility to personalize their learning experience to better meet each student’s individual strengths and needs.” One of B.C.’s early models for self-directed learning is Thomas Haney secondary in Maple Ridge, where senior high students are expected to make their own way through course work, learning to manage their own time. It was here that the first couple of Grade 12 students showed up last week to begin making up for lost time from the strike that set in last spring. Self-directed study has become a crash course. Private schools are also swamped with applications from Grade 12 students looking for particular courses they will need by next year. In the short term, Fassbender says the lost strike days will likely have to be restored to the school schedule. “Do you put it on at the end of the year? Do you take it out of spring break? Do you take it out of Christmas holidays? My staff are looking at all of the options,” Fassbender said. In the longer term, the whole factory model of school is on the way out. ••• Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

First World War guns unveiled After months of work, the Township of Esquimalt unveiled (top photo) its two First World War “trophy guns” to the public Thursday at their resting place in Memorial Park. Several hundred people came out for the unveiling including members of the Victoria Esquimalt Military Re-enactors Association. Bob Campbell (above left) turned out for the ceremony in an authentic Canadian Army First World War uniform,

while Dan Dalby (above, right) portrayed a German soldier. The two guns have been part of the Memorial Park landscape for years, but went through an overhaul over the last seven months as part of a First World War commemorative event. The two artillery pieces were captured by Canadian soldiers on Vimy Ridge and were given to the municipality in 1920.

Local art expo includes workshops, art suppliers and Paint in the Park Natalie North Black Press

Three years ago, members of the Community Arts Council of Greater Victoria made a bold move to reconnect with the community and attract a new audience when they moved from a downtown gallery space into the Arts Centre at Cedar Hill. On Sept. 13, the nonprofit organization takes another step in the same direction with its Fall for the Arts Expo 2014, a day devoted to introducing locals to the art resources and artists within their community – and themselves. “One of the big motivations for us in putting on this event, and a lot of our other programming, is to celebrate the accomplishments of people who are in the arts and to engage others,” said Bob Williams, president of the CACGV, “to give people a bigger understanding of the arts and appreciate what they’re seeing and hearing and perhaps make them want

to pick up a paintbrush or pencil.” The expo showcases talent, suppliers and retailers and those in the community who are offering courses or workshops in all disciplines, whether visual, literary or performing arts-focused. Ideally, Williams said, someone could come to the show and go home with everything they need: information on where to get arts supplies, mentoring opportunities and ultimately, encouragement. “Our sense has been that there’s some mystique that artists live on a cloud and we’re mere mortals,” he said. “But in fact, they’re just people who are expressing their creativity and we’re keen to work with people, no matter what stage they’re at in their arts career – whether they’re picking up a paintbrush for the first time, or they’re professional.” The Belfry Theatre, Langham Court Theatre, Artbox, Embroiderers’ Guild of Victoria and Oak Bay Art-

Spirtual journey for My Rabbi started in a pub Andrea Peacock News Staff

It is the unlikely story of two friends on different paths, both going through life on a spiritual journey — and it all started in a pub. My Rabbi is a semi-autobiographical play based on the lives of its creators, Joel Bernbaum and Kayvon Kelly. “We used our real-life experiences as a jumping off point for the play,” said Bernbaum. The play focuses on the characters’ relationship as friends from different cultures – Bernbaum is Jewish and Kelly is half Irish and half Iranian. “It [is] a comedic drama that looks at the global

political situation and old world politics through the eyes of two young guys,” said Bernbaum, 33. “Our hope is that people will watch the play and think about these very complicated, very large global political issues and think about them through a humanistic lens.” The play is intended to make the audience think. “We didn’t try to write a play that answered questions,” said Bernbaum. “We wanted to write a play that posed questions.” However, it does it in a comedic way, said Bernbaum, describing the play as a comedic drama. “This play really is about friendship,” said Bernbaum. “One thing I haven’t seen

wrote the first draft of My Rabbi in a pub after graduating from the Canadian College of Performing Arts in Victoria in 2008.

“We realized we had absolutely no work lined up and we looked at each other and said we should write a play,” said Bernbaum. “Before we finished the pitcher of beer, we had in front of us a napkin with an outline of the scenes.” The majority of the play itself takes place in a pub, barring flashback scenes or other parts of their lives. The play premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August. It will be making its North American premiere at Belfry Theatre’s Studio A in Victoria, presented by Puente Theatre this month.

James Bay Athletic Association starts rugby program for youth Boys U-16 and U-18 to play this fall Kevin Laird News staff

The James Bay Athletic Association is looking for a few young men. Victoria’s iconic rugby powerhouse is launching both a boys under-16 team and an under-18 squad this year. The association has had youth programs on and off for more than 50 years, but this

renewed effort is to develop a feeder system for both the men’s premier and Division 1 teams. “I think the club is excited that we’re getting this back into place,” said Brad Underwood, who will manage the youth program. “It brings in young athletes and exposes them to rugby and its culture, and hopefully they stick with the club.” The boys squads will practice every Friday. Games are played on Sundays. Underwood is work-

ing with B.C. Rugby to develop a new league for Tier 2 teams, which could have an interlocking schedule with squads from the Lower Mainland. The league is in the formative stages, but would help develop players to get to the next level. “It’s our hope that we raise the bar on the competition level. It really doesn’t help much if the Oak Bay Castaways are beating teams 100-0. “The more teams we have at different stages of development the better,” said

Underwood, who has represented Canada in rugby at the international level. James Bay’s two youth teams will be coached by rugby veterans Clayton Meeres and Nikyta Witkowski. For more information, please phone Brad Underwood at 250-920-0508 or email youth@jbaa.ca.

The Victoria Cougars scored three times in each period and outshot the visiting Saanich Braves 47-8 on their way to a 9-0 shutout win on Thursday night. With the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League team chock full of new faces, Victoria did everything right from controlling play at both ends of the ice to special teams. The Cougars scored three power play goals, one shorthanded goal, and went a perfect 4-for-4 on the penalty kill. Marino Somerville led the charge with three goals. Also lighting the lamp were Robert Zadra, Howard Howden, Jake

Stolz, Wade Johnson and John Kretzschmar. Next game for the Cougars is tomorrow (Sept. 11) against Saanich. Game time is 7 p.m. at Archie Browning Sports Centre in Esquimalt. Meanwhile, the Western Hockey League Victoria Royals play two more exhibition games before beginning regular season play on Sept. 19. The Royals play their next exhibition tilt at home tomorrow (Sept. 11) at Save on Foods Memorial Centre at 5 p.m. and the final game on the road versus the Kelowna Rockets on Saturday (Sept. 13).

▾ MYTH: Once kids join a gang there’s no hope for them: Reality: With quick family, school, and police intervention, a youth can leave the gang without any serious consequences. The key is a coordinated and collaborative intervention as soon as some of the warning signs appear. Better yet, everyone needs to work together to prevent youth and young adults from joining gangs.

’Cats keep busy in off-season Baseball club hires pitching coach Kevin Laird News staff

You’d never know the Victoria HarbourCats are on hiatus. A month since the West Coast League baseball team season ended it’s made several major announcements – and those

don’t include hiring new head coach Graig Merritt on Aug. 14. Players Alex DeGoti and Hunter MercadoHood were named to the league’s all-star team, while honourable mentions were given to Gabe Clark, Nathan Lukes and Mikey Wright. The ’Cats have also hired Alec Adame as pitching coach for the 2015 season. Adame and Merritt played together at Chico State and helped that school win a NCAA

Division 2 championship in 1999, and their paths have continued to cross as MLB scouts. The team has also re-signed three players for the 2015 season: pitchers Alex Rogers

Welcome to Snapshot! We are excited to present our new photographic tribute to life in Esquimalt – Snapshot. The Victoria News staff spend hours meeting and talking to people in our community. We love sharing their stories and getting to know them. As we’re out and about in Esquimalt, our photographer and reporters are able to capture people at work, play and engaged in various activities of daily life. We know many

of you are just like us, excited to capture those budding flowers, brilliant sunsets and fun, family outings. You take photos of yourself and your friends and at community events. We’d like to thank those of you who shared your photos for this special edition of the News. We think our first Snapshot is a great example of a year in Esquimalt. – Kevin Laird editor, Victoria News
