VICTORIA - 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.” Fassbender’s comments were made before he and BC Teachers’ Federation president Jim Iker disagreed on the idea of asking for binding arbitration to settle on wages and benefits so that schools would open while arbitration took place. 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 this week, close to 75 per cent of parents of eligible public school children age 12 and under had signed up for the $40 payments, which are expected to be made as a lump sum after the strike ends. Other costs that the province continues to incur while schools are closed include 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. Payments to support staff not crossing teacher picket lines could hit $5 million a day once all their union locals ratify new contracts. Education ministry officials said school districts would be consulted on any potential changes to the school year to mitigate the strike. Talk of calendar adjustments is another sign of possible long-term implications from the strike as the dispute enters what should have been the second week of classes for the new school year. Independent schools are starting to get more inquiries.

Digby surfaces as site for LNG development By Shaun Thomas
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT -Residents of Prince Rupert can add Digby Island as a possible location for a liquefied natural gas export terminal on the North Coast. Filings from Aurora LNG, which signed an exclusivity agreement for land at Grassy Point,
indicate the company is considering locating its terminal either near Lax Kw’alaams or on the southeast portion of Digby Island right at the entrance of the Prince Rupert harbour. On the land, plans for the terminal would include up to four LNG trains capable of producing between five and six million metric tonnes
per year. As well as the four trains, plans for the terminal call for up to three 180,000 cubic metre LNG storage tanks and a flare system, with the site being powered by natural gas from the plant intake. In terms of on-water infrastructure, the terminal would have a conventional trestle with up
to three berths for carriers. While the diagrams included in the filing include “safety zones” on the water, Prince Rupert Port Authority spokesperson Kris Schumacher said discussions about the berths and impacts on access to the harbour have yet to take place. “The marine berth as proposed for the ter-
minal would require engagement with the port authority around feasibility and a water lot permit. Currently there is no such agreement and the port authority has had no input,” he said, noting the land itself is not under the umbrella of the Prince Rupert Port Authority. “The Prince Rupert Port Authority would
expect to engage with Aurora LNG in the nearterm to discuss marine berth location and design and ensure safe travel and access to the Prince Rupert harbour.” To accommodate construction, the project would include an on-site work camp to house between 4,000 and 5,000 workers in “motel-style” units. During the op-
erational phase, Aurora LNG said it will use the worker camp for up to 400 “permanent operations and maintenance personnel” as well as provide a space for skills training and capacity building for the community. Aurora LNG declined to comment, citing the ongoing environmental assessment.
not permitted on District property. Council earlier had directed staff to work with Elly Castilho and Ron Skuggedal on figuring out a solution to the sign, rather than simply grant or deny a permit at their last regular meeting. The solution now is to give the permit with the conditions that the sign be moved on to private property, that the concrete blocks be covered, the sign be landscaped, and that the sign be removed in the winter. Director of Planning and Community Development Gwen Sewell
said the sign would be removed at the end of September this year. Mario Feldhoff moved for staff’s recommendation but Rob Goffinet argued he wasn’t happy with the sign. “When this first came to us there was the issue that the sign itself was not compliant with the other signs of businesses in the general area and I believe one of the business people in public comment referenced that fact,” he said, saying the look of the sign hasn’t really been addressed. “The most troubling part of this is the sign has to actually be
removed [in winter] because it can’t stand the winter in Kitimat,” he said. “Why would we ever site a sign that has to be taken down over the en-
tire winter?” he asked. “I think this sign has fundamental flaws and I would say it doesn’t fit in with the quality of signage everywhere else in the community.”
Feldhoff countered that council shouldn’t pick apart this issue. “Lets not beat this to death,” he said, saying the conditions are reasonable, and were
endorsed by the Downtown Design Panel. Goffinet voted against the recommendations but was outnumbered with the remainder of council in favour.
Liquor sign stymies council in Kitimat for awhile By Cameron Orr

KITIMAT - A sign advertising liquor sales at the store attached to the Ol’ Keg Pub caused some work for council but a solution has been set, although was not unanimous.

Such permits are required for new projects such as signs, and signs that do not advertise community events are

PILT remains a hot topic By Shaun Thomas
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - A report from chief financial officer Corinne Bomben indicates the City of Prince Rupert and the Prince Rupert Port Authority (PRPA) remain far apart when it comes to what the PRPA should be paying in taxes. “The city has received the Prince Rupert Port Authority’s 2014 payment-in-lieu of tax (PILT) payment. The city’s share, the amount we notified the port to pay based on applicable mill rates and their assessment based on BC Assessment, was $1.675 million and this amount was approved in the 2014 budget. The amount the port has paid is $1.152 million ... this is $523,000 short of what was budgeted,” she told council at the Sept. 2 meeting, noting the shortfall won’t affect taxpayers this year. “Had the port not made another interim payment in relation to prior years while we continue to attempt to resolve our dispute regarding land

values, the city would be projecting a deficit after this short payment. Currently we are not projecting a deficit.” For its part, Prince Rupert Port Authority marketing and communications officer Kris Schumacher said the port authority provided a $1.7 million interim payment as the two sides work toward a deal on the PILT. “The payment was specifically identified as interim due to the ongoing evaluation discussion between the City and PRPA ... the advanced payments were a good faith gesture to ensure that the time required resolving this issue did not cause the City and its taxpayers undue financial stress,” he said, noting the interim payments and PILT payment are only a portion of tax revenue generated from portrelated activities. “This amount does not include the property taxes paid by PRPA tenants, and does not include the Port Competitiveness Tax Grant paid by the B.C. Government.”
Five people were able to walk away from an accident that left an SUV submerged at the Prince Rupert waterfront. The vehicle was driving in the lot next to the old VIA Rail station at approximately 12:30 a.m. on Sept. 3 when the driver lost control, sending the SUV over the banks of Rotary Waterfront Park. There were no injuries reported, but Const. Matt Ericson said speed was a factor and the driver was issued various Motor Vehicle Act violations.

Students finally receive Enbridge money TERRACE - Seven months after Northwest Community College first accepted and then rejected $15,000 from Enbridge for student bursaries, the money is being distributed. And, says an Enbridge official, it has increased the original $15,000 sum to $20,000. In all, eight students from Terrace, Prince Rupert and Smithers enrolled in either the college’s trades, technology, science and environmental programs will each receive $2,500. Enbridge has been heavily criticized for its plan to build the Northern Gateway pipeline to carry crude oil from Alberta through northern B.C. to a marine export terminal at Kitimat. The original acceptance of the money in early spring, which at the time followed college policy, was heatedly debated at a subsequent college board meeting with some members arguing that accepting the money would be wrong. A majority of the
board members then passed a motion to return the money. But the college also pledged to assist in getting the money to students. Originally 71 students applied for the bursary money. “Northwest Community College sent a letter to those students who had previously applied for the bursaries, giving them the contact information for the Enbridge contact where they could forward their applications if they chose to pursue that option on their own,” said college communications director Sarah Zimmerman. In the end, said Enbridge official Catherine Pennington, the company received eight applications and decided to increase the number of bursaries from a planned original six to eight so that every applicant would receive one. “We did that after receiving their applications and reading their stories,” she said. Pennington said it is Enbridge’s aim to provide financial assistance to students in specific
fields which include environmental monitoring, technology, marine services and heavy duty equipment operation. She noted that the college had accepted Enbridge money before to provide training to students and the bursary rejection was the first it had experienced. Although the board turned down the money, Zimmerman said the
college does not support or endorse any one project. “With 71 students applying for that particular set of bursaries, we recognized the need expressed by those students and did not want to leave them without follow up,” she said. Pennington called the board’s decision to reject the money “a political one.”

“I’d like to acknowledge the college staff in their assistance. Clearly we both wanted to support students and we were able to do the right thing,” she said. Zimmerman said a new college donations policy is being prepared and has yet to be considered by the board. That’s expected to happen soon when the board meets again.

Scouts assisted …
By Josh Massey
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
BRANDON BRODERICK / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - Totem Auto Group dealer principal Shane deJong presents a $2,340 cheque to Scouts Canada (Terrace). On the far left is Megan Bellamy, deJong, Paul Fleming, Susan Fleming and Nathan Archer. The money was raised through a Drive 4 U Community event. This year $7,060 was raised for the Charles Hays Secondary School Grad Parents Committee, Caledonia Senior Secondary School Dry Grad, Scouts Canada, and Shamrock 4H Club.
TERRACE - The democratic process is kicking into gear again in Terrace as candidates ramp up for the local government elections. In addition to current city councillor Bruce Bidgood deciding to run for mayor and former councillor Carol Leclerc seeking a return to municipal politics by also running for mayor, all of the current councillors say they’ll be trying for re-election. Veteran city councillors Brian Downie and Lynne Christiansen have both announced their candidacies. Downie says he’s looking forward to the November elections now that the city and area are experiencing an economic upswing. “We are in an economic improvement, or boom if you like, and there are opportunities for Terrace and I am exited about those opportunities and I think there are some things we can do to guide development,” he said.
Christiansen said her candidacy provides continuity on city council. But she also welcomed other candidates. “Always good to have some change,” she said. Other city councillors running again are James Cordeiro and Stacey Tyers. There’s a guarantee of at least two new faces on the six-seat city councillor complement. Bidgood’s decision to run for mayor opens up his council seat. And Marylin Davies resigned earlier this year and has since moved away. The mayor’s chair became open this spring
when current mayor Dave Pernarowski said he wouldn’t be running. THE CITY of Terrace is hosting an information night for those interested in running for municipal office in this November’s local government elections. It’s being held Sept. 25 at city hall. Available will be information on how the nomination process works and what’s required to be a city councillor. Included will be the ins and outs of campaign financing. Elections this November are for four-year terms, an increase of one year over previous terms.

Pulp mill buildings to be torn down
www.bclocalnews.com /bc_north A11
Sponge to the face…
By Shaun Thomas
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - After nearly five years under the ownership of the City of Prince Rupert, a contract has been awarded to remove and dismantle several buildings at the former Watson Island pulp mill site. At the Sept. 2 meeting, council announced that they had awarded the contract for work at the site to Stantec Engineering. The company should be beginning work this winter. “It is anticipated we will see some buildings come down in the new year ... most of the buildings will come down, but some will be left standing because they can have other uses, such as the administration building,” explained Prince Rupert Mayor Jack Mussallem. “This is very important in terms of redeveloping Watson Island and the goal of supporting new industry and new jobs.” The total value of the contract is $220,000, but Mussallem said residents of Prince Rupert won’t be left footing the bill. “The money was put up by Sun Wave Forest Products as part of the settlement with the city,” he said, noting there may be an opportunity to recoup some money the city had previously spent. “There is some equipment on-site that is of value to the pulp industry and there have been inquiries about that.” As for the work itself, Mussallem told council it would not be easy going for Stantec. “This is a particularly challenging job because when the mill was shut down in 2001, the mill was never decommissioned. It was shut down with the intention that it would be up and running within 30 to 45 days and, of course, that never happened,” he said.

Orca LNG proposes terminal near Rupert By Shaun Thomas THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - Another company planning to export liquefied natural gas is turning its attention to the North Coast Orca LNG submitted its application to the National Energy Board for a licence to export 24 million metric tonnes
per annum (mtpa) of LNG for 25 years from a yet-to-be-determined location “in the vicinity of Prince Rupert”. “The project is planned to consist of six floating liquefaction storage and offloading (FLNG) vessels, permanently moored near-shore as they become available and are placed into operation,” reads the com-
pany’s filing. “Each FLNG vessel is expected to have liquefaction capabilities, LNG storage capacity of 250,000 cubic meters, and be able to deliver LNG to off-taking LNG carriers by utilizing a ship-to-ship process. Each vessel will be able to liquefy approximately 4-5 mtpa of LNG.”
Orca LNG is expecting to commence exports in 2019 with one vessel. The number of ships would calling on the terminal would increase as construction of additional FLNG vessels is completed. Although Orca LNG is in discussion with “several pipeline companies” to supply the gas to the coast.

Two men attempting to lure young women into vehicles TERRACE - Terrace RCMP have received concerning reports of two men propositioning young women that are walking around town. The first man is described as Caucasian between 35 and 45 yrs of age driving a red truck that may be a Dodge. The second man is also Caucasian in his mid 30’s driving a blue/grey truck. The men are attempting to lure woman by offering a ride and inviting them into their truck. There may be more women out there who have experienced this in the past couple of days and we encourage them to call us, says Cst Lori Foster, general duty Terrace RCMP. The following points are things that everyone should know: Awareness: Your first line of defense. Most people think of kicks to the groin and blocking punches when they hear the term selfdefense. However, true self-defense begins long before any actual physical contact. The first, and probably most important, component in self-defense is aware-
ness: awareness of yourself, your surroundings,
and a potential attacker’s likely strategies. Often,
a criminal’s strategy is to use the advantage of
surprise. Studies have shown that criminals are
adept at choosing targets that appear to be un-
aware of what is going on around them.

Remember to recycle …
CAITLIN CLOW / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - The importance of recycling was brought home to the area thanks to a visit by Tiffany, left, and Tori, right, dubbed the BC Recycling Ambassadors. Their visit to Terrace took place as par of a 17-week province wide program to promote sustainable recycling practices. Altogether there were four ambassadors touring various parts of the province to raise awareness of the hazards of used tires, oil, antifreeze, batteries, medication and household waste as well as the beneftis of recycling and reusing. As an example, any petroleum or synthetic crankcase oil, engine oil, hydraulic fluid, transmission fluid, gear oil, heat transfer fluid or other fluid used for lubricating purposes in machinery or in equipment can be recycled. Spin-on or element oil filters, including diesel fuel filters but not gasoline fuel filters can also be recycled by being taken to accredited drop off locations.

NDP remain cautious on LNG developments TERRACE - The provincial opposition’s newest point man on liquefied natural gas remains confident there will be some form of the industry in B.C. but he’s not convinced it will be as large as what’s being envisioned by the B.C. Liberal government. Bruce Ralston, the NDP MLA for Whalley-Surrey, was on a tour of the region recently after having been given the LNG watchdog role by opposition leader John Horgan. “B.C. does have some advantages, we can bring strong assets to the table, but the companies with projects here also have projects elsewhere and there’s competition within those companies,” said Ralston. “They think nothing of spending $500 million on a project but if there’s one more attractive somewhere else, that’s where they’ll go,” he said. Ralston noted that the rapid development of new technology has resulted in the discovery of natural gas in many parts of the world so that companies now have many options to explore. And he said the rising costs of developing any kind of LNG industry where budgets are calculated in the
multiple billions of dollars must also be considered. “Apache, which is not a small company by any means, now wants out [of Kitimat LNG],” said Ralston in referring to one of the two projects under consideration in Kitimat. Apache, which is partnered with Chevron on Kitimat LNG, also wants to sell a stake it has in a large Australian LNG project which is near completion. The challenge with Kitimat LNG, Ralston continued, is that the project has yet to sign up customers. That’s in contrast to Canada LNG, the other major project under consideration in Kitimat which has Shell as a majority owner. There, Ralston said Shell has three Asian partners who are also gas consumers. Still, Ralston added, the B.C. Liberal’s earlier timetable, promoted during the 2013 provincial election, of having LNG plant construction underway by 2015, likely won’t be met. Crucial to any eventual decision made by any LNG company is the provincial tax regime, finalization of which has been delayed several times, he said.

Street View coming to Gwaii Haanas By Shaun Thomas THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
SKIDEGATE - People from around the world will soon be able to take in the majestic sites of Gwaii Haanas National Park from the comfort of their own homes. Parks Canada staff will be spending the next week capturing some of the park’s natural beauty with the Google “Trekker”, which will allow Gwaii Haanas to be a part of the Google Street View program. “It’s essentially a backpack with a camera overhead that captures 360-degree 3D images, so we will have people walking
Mayor to CityWest: Drop fee for bills
through some significant areas and capturing those images,” said superintendent Ernie Gladstone, pointing to K’uuna Llnaagaay, T’aanuu Llnagaay, Hlk’yah GaawGa, Gandll K’in Gwaay.yaay and SGang Gwaay as just some of the sites to be visited. “A lot of people don’t get to see Gwaii Haanas in person because it is so remote and, for some, expensive to get to so this will allow people to see it from a visitor point of view and, we hope, inspire more people to
come.” The equipment is coming to the islands as part of a partnership between Parks Canada and Google, a partnership that has also included Google Street View equipment capturing areas in Gulf Islands National Park Reserve and Glacier National Park for Google Maps. “We’re very fortunate to be able to use this equipment in Gwaii Haanas,” said Gladstone. “It will be an opportunity for us to bring Gwaii Haanas to people wherever they may be.”

KEEPING CANADA’S ENERGY HIGHWAYS SAFE
By Shaun Thomas THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERTPrince Rupert Mayor Jack Mussallem is calling on CityWest to remove the $2 fee for those wanting paper bills. “We have got seniors and others on fixed income and none of them as subscribers, made a decision to have City West use computers and put them at a disadvantage where it would cost them additional money per month because they want a paper statement,” he said at the Sept. 2 council meeting. While Coun. Barry Cunningham noted CityWest has a list of people without Internet who won’t be charged for paper bills and anyone can go to the office and add their name, Mayor Mussallem said that wasn’t good enough. “I think it is totally unfair that the onus is put on the subscriber. I would prefer, as we are the representative of the shareholders of that corporation, that our city manager goes back to board of directors and the staff. The onus shouldn’t be on the subscriber. I think it’s totally unfair,” he said. On Aug. 28, a number of companies that charge paper bill fees agreed to provide exemptions for customers who have no personal or home broadband connection, persons with disabilities who need a paper bill, seniors aged 65 and over and veterans of the Canadian Armed Forces. CityWest declined to comment.
HOW PIPELINE COMPANIES ARE TAKING STANDARDS TO A NEW LEVEL
Pipelines – known as energy highways – are vital to our country’s energy infrastructure. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to do many of our daily activities, like travelling or heating our homes. That’s why it’s critical pipelines are efficient and safe – we need them to reliably deliver 80 per cent of the oil and gas products Canadians use. Canada’s pipeline companies carefully follow a strict set of standards and regulations and use sophisticated equipment at every phase of a pipeline’s life – from design and construction to operations, maintenance and emergency response plans.
These measures and innovative practices allow Canada’s pipeline industry to boast a 99.999 per cent* safety record. But we’re not stopping there. We’re committed to zero incidents; to reach it, we are focusing on new pipeline innovation, employee safety and emergency management through an industry led program, CEPA Integrity First®. Safety doesn’t just influence our plans, processes and standards – it defines them. It is the top priority of our industry, now and in the future. Learn more about Canada’s pipelines and our safety standards.

Concussion prevention urged By Josh Massey
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - The City of Terrace is sponsoring a sports clinic that focuses on the latest information related to preventing, diagnosing and treating concussions and other injuries. The evening course will be hosted by the non-profit organization SportsMed BC and is divided into two sections: Concussion and SportsSmart. Organizer Alexandra Sojo said SportsMed has the 2015 Canada Winter Games being held in Prince George in mind in administering the program. “We are targeting volunteers in the Canada Winter Games,” said Sojo. “We want to make sure they all have a knowledge of sports safety and best practice.” But the course is
also for anyone over the age of 16 – parents, coaches, officials, athletes – anyone who works in the sports sector. “We have Kevin Phillips who is a certified athletic therapist and has great experience in many different sports and is going to be the one on the front line disseminating the information,” Sojo said. “There is a grey area of what a concussion is,” Sojo continued. “The first course of the evening shows what the medical establishment does know, and presents the latest research and best practices in the sport industry and medical sector.” “Concussions are a possibility in high risk sport like hockey and rugby,” she said. The second section is called SportSmart and focuses on how to properly warm up and cool down, and proper
training methods: “The things that can happen and how to prevent them.” The two courses will be given in a lecture- style presentation with a PowerPoint presentation and a question and answer period led by Kevin Phillips, who according to Sojo, has a ton of experience in a multitude of injury situations. The City of Terrace is paying the entry fee for residents and also offering a room at the Sportsplex for free. “This is a city sponsorship for these workshops because we recognize the importance of concussion and injury prevention for our facility users – whether it is in the arena or on the field,” said city spokesperson Alisa Thompson. The Concussion Management Workshop is happening from 6-7:30 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 15. Right af-
ter that, there will be a SportSmart Workshop from 8-9:30 p.m. SportMed BC is also hosting an all-day, pay-to-participate taping workshop on the Sunday before. “It’s an intro on how to tape for athletic purposes. When to tape, when not to tape for injuries, ankles and knees, a basic understanding of the dos and don’ts of taping, what kinds of tape to use, and how to use them,” said Sojo, adding that participants are being asked to wear athletic clothing for the handson lessons. Those interested in either workshop are asked to phone the city at 250-615-3000. Concussions have affected the careers and playing abilities of everyone from the casual amateur weekend sports warrior to highly CONTRIBUED / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR trained professional athletes such as Sidney Concussions can be suffered in many different forms in many different types of circumstances.

Holkestad claims Rupert championship By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - As the saying goes, you can never get bored of winning. It’s certainly true for Rose Holkestad, who captured the Prince Rupert Ladies Club Championship over the weekend with a terrific 36-hole low gross score of 174 including a first day 18-hole total of 86. “[Saturday’s] back nine I shot a 39; best game I’ve played all year,” said Holkestad. “I just played well. Everything came together and my putts were great and all my hits were good. It just all came together really well.” Holkestad has been on a tear on the greens lately. In the past two years alone, the ace has won the 2013 and 2014 Vic Marion Senior’s Open women’s title and took
the 2013 Ladies’ Jubilee low net along with many other achievements at the Rupert Golf Club. Holkestad shot a birdie on Saturday’s 17th hole and played together with Selma Standring and Jean Eby while on Sunday, she putted with Karin Williamson, Janet Sheppard and Aina Pettersen. But does she get used to the low scores? “No, no,” Holkestad dismissed. “Golf is one of those games where you can go out and think you have it all together and it completely blows up on you, so it’s just one of those games where you never know what you’re going to play.” First-overall lownet went to Dorothy Wharton who was very consistent over both days, scoring a net of 142 off a score of 218. Maria Wells won the second low-net with

Rose Holkestad, the winner of the Prince Rupert Ladies Club Championship. a 155 off of a gross of 215. Third and fourth low net went to Eby and Standring who notched low nets of 161 and 162 off grosses of 217 and 220 respectively. “I think we’re more encouraging [with each
other],” said Holkestad of the club championship, since everyone knows each other quite well. “You can sort of tell whether or not someone is playing well or if they’re struggling a lit-
tle bit.” Thirteen participants took to the greens on the weekend including Holkestad, Eby, Standring, Wharton, Williamson, Sheppard, Wells, Pettersen, Carol Schaeffer, Carol Bry-
ant, Josie Lam, Annette Richards and Linda Miller. The golfers battled through drizzly and wet typical coastal conditions on Sunday to finish out the championship.

Cops on two wheels By Cameron Orr
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - A lengthy, exhausting, but worthwhile bike ride will be stopping in Kitimat in the coming week. The Cops for Cancer bike ride is on the way, with a September 16 stop in Kitimat. Since we last reported on the event Kitimat’s champion for the ride, Cst. Rob Buller, has had a chance in circumstances. Perhaps someone mentioned the ride would feel like corporal punishment which gave him ideas, but Buller has been given the nod to the corporal rank, but that rise comes with a new detachment away from Kitimat. In this time of transition, in steps Cpl. Chris Manseau, an alumni of the bike ride, who’ll fill in as a Kitimat representative on the Kitimat stretch of the ride. Buller meanwhile is listed as having already raised $1,383.35 according to the Cops for Cancer Tour de North web page, which could very well be a low estimate to how much has actually been raised. On September 16 the Kitimat RCMP detachment will be holding an outdoor reception at 6 p.m. to welcome the riders in to town, and anyone in the community is welcome to come as well to give the riders a Kitimat welcome. The ride will conclude on September 18 in Prince Rupert. The cyclists will also be stopping in Terrace on Sept. 17 where they will be hosted by Terrace Totem Ford at a steak dinner being held in the dealership’s showroom. The longest stretch of the tour is from Hazelton to Kitimat, a distance of 195 kilometres. A shorter cycle takes place the day before, 75 kilometres from Smithers through Moricetown to Hazelton.

Airport receives welcome boost By Josh Massey
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - The Northwest Regional Airport is getting $250,000 to help with its planned $15 million terminal expansion project. The money from the Northern Development Initiative Trust was announced Sept. 3 at a ceremony held at the airport. To start this fall, the expansion project will feature a new check-in hall, an expanded wait room for passengers, an easier way to check baggage, a new security screening area, new check in area and new offices for resident airlines. “The Magi from the east have come with gifts three months before Christmas,” Ron Burnett, President of the Terrace-Kitimat Airport Society, said. Earlier this year, the trust provided $250,000 to help finance a $1 million third aircraft parking stand. This new allocation is to be effective in the next fiscal year. “Thank you for
