Teachers: Deal struck Continued from Pg. 1

“ This has been a really long struggle that engaged a lot of B.C.,” Harper said, pointing not only to the support from other unions and organizations but from the communities themselves that were affected by the struggle. “Despite the government’s attempts to divide us as a community with ridiculous social media and PR campaigns, we stuck together and did what was best for the kids and for education as an institution. “I have to give my undying thanks to the people and community of Campbell River for all their support as they went through this.” If this deal is ratified by

the teachers, it will be the third negotiated contract in the last 20 years, when province-wide bargaining was introduced in 1994. Previous agreements were reached in 2006 and 2012. Harper said he can’t speak for how the upcoming ratification vote will turn out, however. “You’re not going to see the kind of support that the arbitration vote got (99.4 per cent),” he said. “There are going to be teachers that look at it, no matter what it has in it, and say, ‘no, that’s not good enough,’ because the nature of bargaining is that some of what they were fighting for will have come off the table, and they’ve given up a

ton already.” By far the most important thing Harper will be looking at when he sees the offer is that the results of the court case currently under appeal by the government that dictates teachers’ right to negotiate class size and composition is not affected by any agreement. “I’m confident that court ruling will have remained unfettered for it to even be considered and put before the members,” said Harper. If there is anything in the agreement that will contradict that court ruling, he said, not only would it not likely have made it through to a vote, but would almost certainly be voted down by membership if it did.

Campbell River Boatland suffers second break-in


City staff recomend new annual water restrictions 4 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR | WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2014

KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The city is looking at cracking down on water consumption during the summer, following overuse of the city’s water supply in July. The new restrictions would mean that as of May 1 every year, even if no other water restrictions are in place, people may only water their lawns for a handful of hours, roughly 15 days per month. Those rules would be dictated by a set of new water restrictions being recommended by city staff. The new stage one would restrict even numbered addresses to watering their lawns and gardens on Mon-

days, Wednesdays and Saturdays, a departure from even numbered addresses watering on even numbered days, while odd numbered houses could only water on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Watering would be permitted between the hours of 5-9 a.m. and 7-10 p.m. Currently, stage one allows watering between midnight and 7 a.m. and then again from 7 p.m. to midnight. Jennifer Peters, the city’s utilities manager, said the change is in response to changing climates and an increasingly high demand for water. “With climate change exp er ts fore cast ing trends of hotter and

drier summers for our area, the city must ensure adequate fire flows are in place,” Peters wrote in a report to council. “A three-staged approach would enable the city to manage the water demand more effectively and provide a more gradual method to water restriction. This approach will minimize the need for drastic water restrictions as was required this past summer.” The city was forced to implement a stage three water restriction July 15 and 16 after four straight days of over consumption. The city’s water supply capacity is 1,065 litres/ second but 300 litres/ second of that must be retained for fire fighting,

which leaves 765 litres/ second for domestic water use. But this past July, residents were using more than their allotted amount, with a peak of 940.54 litres/second on July 14. Peters said for the most part, residents took the stage three water ban seriously and consumption dropped by 13 per cent during the first day of the ban, with further drops of 17 per cent and 15 per cent the following days. There were, however, 72 homes found out of compliance with the city’s stage one watering restrictions (odd numbered houses watering on odd numbered calendar days and even numbered homes on even days).

City staff is recomending restrictions to preserve the municipal water supply and avoid future supply issues.

“All of these residences were sent a courtesy letter to remind them of the stage one watering restrictions,” Peters said. “Two of these residences continued to violate the bylaw and staff followed up in person to inform them of the stage one water restrictions.” Peters said if council approves the recommended water restriction

changes, which were up for debate at Tuesday’s council meeting after the Mirror went to press, a communication plan will be developed to educate the public on the changes. Stage two, for example, would mean even numbered homes would only be allowed to water on Mondays while odd numbered homes would

have their watering days on Thursdays. Similar to stage one, watering would only be permitted between the hours of 5 a.m. and 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. Peters said the object of the three-stage approach is to help the city more effectively manage water demands during the peak usage period of summer.

Youth charged, rifles seized after shots ring out A 16-year-old boy is facing multiple charges after RCMP seized a rifle and a shotgun from the youth near Evergreen Road. Residents complained of shots being fired in the west end of Evergreen near Franzen Road and Forest Grove Place at 2:29 a.m. on Sept. 8. Cpl. Poppy Hallam, spokesperson for Campbell River RCMP, said this was not an isolated incident. “This was not the first complaint of shots heard in this area and one caller felt the sound was coming from an area close to houses,” Hallam

said. “An RCMP police service dog, along with all available resources, responded and tracked a suspect from the Forest Grove Place area into a wooded area behind a residential neighbourhood.” The 16-year-old male was taken into custody without incident a short time later. Police seized a rifle, shotgun, ammunition, and a ballistic vest from the teen. The youth, who cannot be named under provisions of the Youth Criminal Justice Act, appeared before a Judicial Justice of the Peace and was released on several con-

ditions including not to possess firearms and to abide by a curfew. The youth has been charged with careless use of a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, and unauthorized possession of a firearm. No one was hurt in this incident and the investigation remains open and active. Anyone with any information about this incident is asked to contact the Campbell River RCMP Detachment at (250) 286-6221 or if you wish to remain anonymous, you can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-TIPS (8477).

Marina parking woes

A sign warning motorists not to use the parking lot between the Quadra ferry terminal and Robert Ostler Park is being used to deter people who are not customers of the marina from parking.

KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The owners of the parking lot between the Quadra ferry terminal and Robert Ostler Park are tired of ferry traffic and downtown business owners using their parking spaces. Tanya Pallan, president of Nagra Holdings Ltd., the real estate division of Pallan Group, wrote a letter to city council outlining her concern that people are taking away the only parking available for patrons and owners of the businesses at the Coast Harbour Marina. “There are numerous small businesses being operated from the marina, namely Dick’s Fish and Chips, Diversafe, Discovery Launch, Adventure Quest Tours and Government of Canada Fisheries and Oceans C oastguard office and vessels,” Pal-

lan wrote. “These businesses employ numerous people and they have customers, both of which require parking on the lot. There can be up to 40 marine vessels docked at the marina and all the owners of these vessels require the use of the parking lot.” But Pallan said it’s becoming increasingly difficult for them to find parking in the 60-stall lot. “ Un f o r t u n a t e l y, Quadra ferry patrons and many of the general public, employed in the downtown area, are using this lot as their private parking domain,” Pallan wrote. “The tenants of our marina buildings, their customers and our customers that dock their vessels at the marina, are being forced out of being able to park on this property.” Derik Pallan, president of Pallan Group,

said since his company bought the lot from the Coast Discovery Hotel two years, business down at the marina has grown and demand for parking has doubled. “We’re needing that space for our own clientele and the reason for that is simply growth. We also have expansion plans for the marina,” Derik Pallan said. “We have people trying to park their boats at the marina who are saying they’re going to use a different marina because they can’t find parking.” While Pallan said the land is “a fee simple property” owned by Nagra Holdings which pays city property taxes on the land, the province designated the parcel of land as a public parking site in 1971. Pallan is asking that the city of Campbell River help the company with a request to the B.C. government to have the

public parking designation removed. “There may have been a time when the public parking designation was necessary, but this is now fee simple private property, on which we are assessed property taxes,” Pallan said. “It is inherently discriminatory and unfair that free public parking should be allowed on private fee simple land holdings.” Derik Pallan said he’s hoping to work with the city to resolve the issue. “People are complaining. It’s really affecting business is what it comes down to,” he said. “We need the city’s assistance to have the parking lot go from free public parking to reserved private parking so our clientele can use their own parking lot.” C i t y co u n c i l wa s expected to review Pallan’s letter at its Tuesday evening meeting, after the Mirror went to press.

Our View

New technology a driving force

We may think we need wearable technology – such as Google Glass or the new Apple Watch – and manufacturers would like us to think so, too. But the last thing we need in this day and age of multiple distractions is We say: We something else to divert our attention need to demand from the responsibilities of operating a vehicle. more stringent Most drivers would probably agree penalties that erratic behaviour on the roads has not decreased over the past 20 years. Indeed, it appears we are now paying the price for past leniency in what seems to have emerged as current norms

of driving – unsignalled turns and lane changes, sudden swerves within lanes or into the line of oncoming traffic, unexpected decreases in speed and failure to respond to traffic signals. Those who have ever wondered “what’s up with this guy?” have probably discovered more than once, on closer approach, a driver juggling the wheel and a cup of coffee; glancing down at a text message; or with a cellphone clutched to his or her ear. Since they, clearly, don’t see themselves as part of a problem, it would be meaningless to tell them that, on average, 30 people a year die as a result of distracted driving in the Lower Mainland alone – and some 88

provincewide. Similarly, it would probably mean little to those with such an undeveloped sense of self-preservation, that current police fines could bend their pocketbooks by $167 for distracted driving to $368 for driving without due care and attention. So let these remarks be addressed to those of us who place a greater value on life. It’s time we demanded a much higher standard, and a much more stringent series of penalties for distracted driving that will anticipate the wave of new attentiongrabbing technologies. – Black Press

Choice leaves us without one

I posed a question, via email, to three mayoralty candidates and to each of the “Choice” slate of candidates individually. The question was with regard to a Waterfront Master Plan and would not have required a lengthy response. The answers to the question are important only in that they assist me in deciding how I’ll cast my vote in the municipal election. What is important is “how’ the answers were given. The “Choice” candidates’ decision to provide one response to me as a ‘group’ made me pause and think about the ramifications of voting for any slate of candidates. In this instance, if elected as a slate, we will have five rookie councillors holding the balance of power on council. It might prove very difficult for the mayor, or the sole ‘outside’ or ‘dissenting’ councillor, or even the public, to make an argument for any position that contravenes the slate candidates’ platform. I find myself uncomfortable with the outcome of council decisions being predetermined, even if I’m in agreement with the majority. I have great respect and admiration for those who stand for election, at any level of government. It is a time-consuming and often thankless job, albeit a very important one, and I wish all the candidates success in their future endeavours.

I ponder how would I vote in Scottish referendum

Alistair Taylor

Out On A Limb @AlstrT

editor@campbellrivermirror.com

My country makes an epic decision tomorrow. Of course, I mean, my former country. Actually, I only ever lived in Scotland for four years of my life. And I wasn’t even born there. But born to Scottish parents, I can assure I feel no less Scottish than anyone. So, it is with great interest that I have been following the Scottish independence referendum being held tomorrow. As a Canadian, I have the privilege of holding two perspectives on the whole debate over whether Scotland should break away from the United Kingdom. I can view the issue through the filter of having watched Canada go through a divisive debate over independence for Quebec. As a Scottish immigrant, I also feel the emotions involved in the vote

taking place tomorrow. After 300 years, my ancestral homeland could become it’s own nation as a political entity. There can be no doubt that Scotland feels and is seen as a nation already. It has a long history as an independent country – a thousand years. Scotland was a nation before England. It has a culture that has it’s own limited degree of diversity (Celtic Highlands, predominantly Anglo-Saxon Lowlands). There’s no one who would deny that Scots are a people and that the northern part of the island of Britain is Scotland. And that’s where the difference between the Scottish referendum and the Quebec independence movement differs. Scotland was and is a country, even after 300 years of “unification” with England (and Wales). It was a bit

of a forced marriage, lest we forget; not a partnership of equals. Quebec never actually was a nation. It was a colony and then it’s home nation was defeated in battle but it was incorporated into the newly-created entity that became Canada by the act of a British Parliament and as an equal partner. It was later prejudice and economic domination that fostered the current grievance towards the rest of Canada. However, Quebec is similar to Scotland in that it is a distinct society with its own language and culture. But that’s all history. What about the present? Would I vote for independence in tomorrow’s referendum if I had stayed in Britain (or, more correctly, returned to live there as an adult)? My Scottish nationalism has been as

virulent as anybody’s in the past, even as a youth growing up in Canada. As an adult viewing the debate through the eyes of someone who has to support a family and consider the future of my children, I would have to filter that nationalism through a more practical lense. But, in the end, I am mostly convinced that I would vote for independence. It’s probably not the practical choice. Maybe not even the most realistic choice. But despite last minute professions of love for Scotland by ROB (Rest of Britain, i.e., England), my former homeland has been the junior partner in the “united” kingdom. Of course, England likes unification, it dominates British political and social

life. The Thatcher years illustrated that clearly. While England was in the throes of Conservative dismantling of the social democratic state, Scots were left isolated politically; powerless to change the course. The majority of Scots didn’t vote for Thatcher’s vision of Britain. And they still don’t. But like British Columbians within the Canadian state, Scots get to watch the rest of the country decide their fate. Need I remind you of how it feels in British Columbia to vote and then turn on the T.V. after the ballots close at 8 p.m. to see that the national government has

been all but determined by voters in earlier time zones further east? In case you missed it, my point is Scots feel a significant degree of grievance towards the British political system. And then there’s the years of being the butt of jokes and cheapskate stereotypes (generated during the immediate post-unification period when Scots had to come crawling to the London government to beg for its share of federal funding). But this to me, isn’t an economic issue. It’s an emotional one. Scotland has never lost its national identity. It’s always been a cultural entity unto itself. The English/British

argument is, according to the current “No” campaign slogan, “we’re better together.” And you know what? I believe economically and politically, Scotland is probably better off remaining in the union. As an aside, I have to say that the current language of the debate focusing on the partnership and unity, the almost federalism (without the federal structures) of the United Kingdom is all too little too late. It’s only in recent years that Britain has realized that it needs some sort of federal structure to appease its regions where separatism was fomenting. Will Scots feel any less a people – any less

MANAGING YOUR MONEY When college years collide with retirement years Kathy Furmaniak CFP, CPCA Financial Consultant

Your children are aiming at college or university and you’re aiming at retirement. That’s not so unusual these days, as more and more parents have chosen to delay marriage and children until they (and their finances) were more ‘mature’. If you’re in that growing group, you’ve probably already initiated a savings plan for retirement but you may still need a plan to pay for that increasingly costly post-secondary education. Here are a few tips to ensure your future does not collide with your children’s future: Get registered A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is a terrific way to save for an education and to save on taxes, too. Though contributions are made with after-tax dollars, you do not pay tax on the growth of investments held within an RESP until money is withdrawn. If the growth is paid to your child while attending an eligible postsecondary education program, you won’t pay taxes on the growth; your child will, and

maybe in a low tax bracket. The government will also kick in some money. Through the Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG) program, the first $2,500 you contribute each year into your child’s RESP will receive a federal grant of at least 20% of your contribution*. With the recent removal of the annual maximum contribution limit and an increase in the lifetime maximum contribution amount to $50,000, it is now easier to accelerate contributions into an RESP.

accelerating, it’s prudent to look beyond RESPs. A TaxFree Savings Account (TFSA) could be a good choice to investments in. Other options include trust accounts and life insurance.

4x10 Investors Group

Get bonded The Canadian Learning Bond can also help accelerate your education savings plan. It is available to children born in 2004 or later whose parents or primary caregivers are receiving the National Child Benefit Supplement. Alberta residents may also qualify for the Alberta Centennial Education Savings Grant (ACES) which can add up to $500 to your child’s RESP. Québec residents can qualify for the Québec Education Savings Incentive, which can provide an additional $250 each year to your child’s RESP*. Get flexible With the education costs

Get retirement-ready Develop a realistic retirement plan that includes the fact that your children may still be completing their education at that time. Your plan could include putting off extensive travel or exploring alternative work arrangements, like phased retirement, so you can spend more time with your children. Your professional advisor can be a valuable source of information on education savings options and what you can do to help put your child through university while still enjoying the retirement of your dreams. *The Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG) and the Canada Learning Bond (CLB) are provided by the Government of Canada. CLB eligibility depends on family income levels. Some provinces make education savings grants available to their residents.

Old Campbellton school may house John Hart workers KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The contractor for the John Hart Generating Station replacement project wants to use the old Campbellton school for construction offices. The school field would be converted into a parking lot for the workers, with a bus drop-off and pick-up area to shuttle workers to and from the construction site. “Due to the limited space around the John Hart Generating Station replacement project, no construction workers will be permitted to park directly at the construction site,” Kathleen Wilker, city planner, wrote in a report to council. “In order to accommodate the parking requirements of this large construction project, ASL JV (contractor Aecon SNC-Lavalin Joint Venture) has decided to provide an off-site parking area at this site and then bus the workers up to the site.” Wilker said the contractor’s intention is to bring in multiple trailers to create an office complex. The trailers would be converted into meeting rooms, project offices and washroom facilities. “The trailers are proposed to be temporary in nature, being on site for approximately five years or to the life of the project, therefore there are no building foundations being proposed,” Wilker said. The only disturbance to the ground will be the digging of various small trenches throughout the site in order to install pipes and electrical conduits for the trailers and on-site lighting. Because the HaigBrown/Kingfisher Creek runs parallel to the west boundary of the site, an environ-

mental assessment and report has been done on the site in order to assess potential impacts on the creek. Wilker said the report recommends features to protect the stream channel and wetlands. “As the location of the trailer complex is outside the (protected environmental area) the environmental professional concludes that most effective mitiga-

tion measures will be to replant the area with vegetation found in a riparian ecosystem,” Wilker said. As the project could last between five to seven years, Wilker said ASL JV has been working with the city to ensure the look of the site conforms to the commercial form and character guidelines within the city’s official community plan.

The billion-dollar John Hart replacement project, which will see a new generating station built underground and the three penstocks that carry the city’s drinking water replaced with an underground tunnel, is in the preliminary stages. Blasting is underway and is expected to continue until November to make way for the underground infrastructure.

True test of landing limits to come during fall weather Terry Farrell BLACk PRESS

Comox Valley Airport CEO Fred Bigelow is not only anticipating the changing seasons, he’s genuinely looking forward to it. In June, the Comox Valley Airport (YQQ) announced the lowering of landing limits to a minimum instrument approach height of 250 feet, from a previous minimum height of 500 feet. The new standards will further reduce cancellations and diversions during poor weather conditions. “We are absolutely thrilled with this decision,” said Bigelow at the time. “The Comox Valley Airport can once again offer the kind of all-weather capability that travellers expect.” Reaction was posi-

tive at the time of the announcement. The true test is on the horizon, however, as the change of seasons draws near. Bigelow knows that his clientele is awaiting that first socked-in weather system, to see how much of a difference it really makes. “If you have lived on the Island, particularly north of Nanaimo, for any reasonable period, then it is likely that either you or someone you know has experienced a delay or cancellation out of YQQ due to the landing restrictions that were previously in effect,” he said last week. “But I can confidently say that we are once again one of the most reliable airports in the province.” Bigelow understands the past frustrations felt by the local flying community and knows that

there are some who have changed their travel routines because of it. The airport has launched a social media campaign to encourage local residents to share the information, and to win back any passengers the airport might have lost due to the former regulations. “We know that there are some people who ‘voted with their feet’ so to speak – we know our passenger numbers have been affected,” he said. “What we want is to ensure that everyone knows about the new regulations. “We are shouting our message from the rooftops. Whether you shout about it, talk about it or tweet about it, we are asking for your assistance to keep our airport contributing to Northern Vancouver Island’s bottom line.”

Bigelow’s confidence in the regulation improvements are iterated in the support shown by its largest business partner, Westjet, which is increasing its number of direct flights to and from Calgary in 2015. As of January, there will be one additional flight per day to Calgary (at 6 a.m.) as well as a 9:10 p.m. arrival from Calgary. This ne w s er vice ensures a minimum of three daily non-stop departures from Comox to Calgary at any time of the year. “This additional yearround, daily flight to Calgary will open up about 14 WestJet markets that were previously not served from Comox in at least one direction, including popular sunspots like Varadero and Cabo San Lucas,” said Bigelow.

Skate shop works to give local kids care pack This summer Boardwalk in Campbell River has collaborated with Vancouver Island skateboard group OneAreaCode to send local kids back-to-school with care packs valued at over $1,600. Each care pack consist of enough shoes, clothing and school supplies to see our kids confident, warm and prepared for the winter. Since 2012, Boardwalk has been hosting programs by OneAreaCode whose mission is to support the education, physical and mental wellbeing of the school-aged skateboard community. OneAreaCode has a volunteer network of over 120 skateboarders. It has collaborated with 70 Californian and Canadian skateboard companies to deliver subsidized shoes and equipment for school-aged skateboarders, who are a positive influence on their peers. With an emphasis on “paying it forward,” OneAreaCode has focused on skateboarders who recognizes their own good fortune and shares it with those in need. “OneAreacode is giving skateboarding in the community the ability to flourish in a positive manner with a focus not just on progression of skills on the board, but also the on important progress of leading your life in positive manner. Combining the youths passion of sport with positive life skills is and will be beneficial to our community as a whole,” said Corby McCartney of Boardwalk.

secretary for accessibility. “As we recognize Disability Employment Month, it is important to reflect on what we, as consumers, employers and community members can do to support employment for people with disabilities.” Maureen Brinson, Employment Services Supervisor for Campbell River and District Association for Community Living (CRADACL), couldn’t agree more. For the past 27 years, the CRADACL has been raising awareness within the community and working with employers to place disabled people in jobs, so, according to Brinson, this announcement is long overdue. “We’ve been raising awareness about his issue for a long time,” she said, “and both the provincial and federal governments have have made huge strides on encouraging employers to employ people with disabilities,” though she added that in her work, and how she prefers to view the people she works with in general, she focuses on people’s abilities rather than their disabilities. “Everyone has their own gifts, talents and abilities, and it’s up to me to match them with the employer. What we need to do is help employers see not only the atypical benefits of having someone with a disability in their employment, but also see what the individual brings to their business.” She about 24 local employers are actively involved in the job placement program and come to her in search of employees for their businesses because they recognize the abilities of those being placed. Brinson also said that the resistance she encounters to prospec-

tive job placements, which is very infrequent, is based on a lack of experience employers have with disabled people and the fact that they aren’t looking at the opportunity in the proper light. Three years ago, Brinson said, the CRADACL started a confidential paper shredding business, and one of the large logging companies in town came to her to talk about it, “and they said to me – and it’s one of the nicest ways of putting it – they said, ‘it’s so nice to give someone a hand-up instead of a handout.’ I think that’s where we need to change some employers’ perspectives. “We’re not looking for handouts, we’re not looking for anything other than a chance, an opportunity, and I have never met an employer that we’ve tried this with that has not gone, ‘Wow, why haven’t we tried this before?’” She is quick to point out that, like any job placement within any segment of the population, there are times it just doesn’t work out. Not everyone is suited for every job, as we all know, but Brinson said they have a higher level of success with placements than many sections of the population, because often jobs are custom tailored for the skill set the employee has or can learn easily. Sometimes people don’t like their job, or they sleep in, or they miss the bus, like everybody else. “It’s just not as common (with disabled people),” Brinson said. If you’re interested in finding out more about what Brinson and the CRADACL do, check out cradacl.bc.ca or contact her at maureen. brinson@cradacl.bc.ca.

Celebrate Haig-Brown’s legacy on Rivers Day Now in its 13th year, the Haig-Brown Festival takes place on Sunday, Sept. 28, from noon to 4 p.m. in honour of the Haig-Brown family legacy and World River’s Day. The family-friendly event provides an opportunity for the public to explore the Haig-Brown House and grounds, and to find out more about some of the local community groups that work to carry on the values of conservation and environmental consciousness demonstrated by Roderick Haig-Brown in both his writing and his actions. Haig-Brown was a fly fisherman, lay judge, and author, who became famous through his many articles and books, some of which are considered classics today. Haig-Brown was an avid conservationist, and spoke of preserving the natural environment long before environmentalism became a popular issue. He is credited

with creating a positive impact on the future of Campbell River through his consideration of how industry could impact the natural habitats of fish and wildlife. The Haig-Brown Festival explores the themes of fishing, literature and conservation, with the addition of outdoor recreation and safety and includes fly tying demos, fly fishing lessons, children’s games and crafts, good food, great displays and property tours. Recognition is also given to Roderick’s wife Ann (Elmore) HaigBrown who assisted vulnerable women, and who was once the librarian at Carihi. The festival also serves to showcase local artistic and musical talent. Readings from HaigBrown’s writings are given in the house study and the public will have the opportunity to peruse its treasure trove of classic literature. Located on the banks of the Campbell River,

No dialysis option is pleasant – the alternative is worse Terry Farrell BLACk PRESS

Monday morning. Waking up feeling lethargic… itchy skin, muscle cramps, nausea. For many people with kidney disease, it’s a typical start to the week. Those symptoms are the signal that it’s time for dialysis. Four hours later, a hemodialysis machine has flushed out the toxins and the patient can go about his or her day, after an hour or two of recovery time. Good to go. All clear. Until Wednesday.

Then it’s time to repeat the cycle. Three times a week. Every week. Such is the routine for a person afflicted with kidney disease. There is an option. Rather than the aforementioned hemodialysis – which can sometimes be done in the comfort of one’s home, after an intense training period, and the installation of the proper equipment –some patients can choose peritoneal dialysis. “Your abdominal cavity, inside your belly, is called your peritoneal cavity,” explained

Heather Johnson, director of programs with the Kidney F o u n d a t i o n of Canada, BC Branch. “With peritoneal dialysis, people have a catheter inserted in their abdomen ... Some use a machine called a cycler. Overnight, the dialysis fluid goes in, and through osmosis, the impurities come into the fluid, then the fluid gets drained out with all the toxins. So it functions like the filtering that the kidney is not capable of doing.” This option is a nightly occurrence. Peritoneal dialysis

can also be performed throughout the day (continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis), in smaller cycles (30-45 minutes) but numerous times (three to four) during the day. “Peritoneal dialysis patients have to do it every day,” said Johnson. “And keep in mind, that being on dialysis does not bring your kidney function up to what (a healthy person) would have. It only provides about 15 per cent kidney function. So it is very trying. People may feel poorly after dialysis, because you have to

recover. One may feel poorly before dialysis, because the toxins are building up.” None of the options are pleasant. The alternative is worse: death - usually within a few weeks. The toxins build up and eventually shut down the body. There is no cure for kidney disease; only maintenance. “Even kidney transplants do not cure kidney disease,” said Johnson. “Transplant recipients are still considered to have kidney disease. If they are young when they receive a kidney

transplant, even their transplanted kidney is unlikely to last. It may work for 30 years, but if you get transplanted as a child, you may need another transplant, or may end up on dialysis when that new kidney fails. So none of this is a cure.” According to the National Kidney Foundation, although some patients can live upwards to 30 years on dialysis, the life expectancy for someone on dialysis is, on average, five to 10 years. “And yet the wait for a transplant is about that

(five years), or even longer, depending on your blood type,” said Johnson. nnnn On Sept. 21, the 2014 Campbell River Kidney Walk/Run will take place at Frank James Park in Campbell River. The 2.5 km walk and the 5 km fun run helps raise funds for The Kidney Foundation of Canada, working together to help millions of Canadians suffering from kidney disease.

Junior Bantam Eagles drop home opener to Dawgs The Campbell River Eagles Junior Bantam Youth Football team played its home opener against a tough Barsby D aw g s t e a m f rom Nanaimo this past Sunday. Once again the Junior Bantams were forced to play Ironman football having only 13 players to play 11 man football. The Dawgs came out strong scoring on their first possession of the game. They missed the extra point try and were up 6-0. The Eagles looked good on their first offensive possession, with starting Quarterback Casey Klettke ending the drive on a beautiful QB keeper for the TD. They also missed the extra point try to tie the game at 6. Unfortunately, the Dawgs defence proved to be too much for the

Eagles Offence and that was the only score of the day. “We just could not get our blocking schemes down,” said head coach Kevin Meier. “They were able to put pressure into the backfield all day.” The Dawgs offence also proved unstoppable and the game ended with a final score of 32-6 for the visitors. “Fortunately this was only an exhibition game and has no bearing on the league standings,” Meier said. “We have a lot to work on over the next couple of weeks (when the Eagles get into their regular season games), but I believe we have the talent to make a very good football team. The bottom line is we need more players to compete with these teams that are fielding 25-30 players.” The Eagles had outstanding performances by starting Quarterback

Canada’s

Casey “Clutch” Klettke, Full Back/Defensive Linemen Tomas “Tank” Foge, Running Back D y l a n “L i g ht n i n g” Lepard, Corner Back Chris “Impact” Rendall, Offensive/Defensive Lineman Brodie “Crush” Comerford and Tight End/Defensive Linebacker Bailey “Blitz” Cook. Cook received the game MVP ball. The Eagles are still looking for players. Registration can be done on any practice night Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Timberline School Field. Pee Wees are ages 8-11 and Junior Bantams are 12-13. Next up for the Junior Bantam Eagles is a trip to Cowichan this Sunday to face a new team in the league this year the Cowichan Bulldogs in another exhibition game.

Despite being outgunned in their home opener against the Nanaimo Barsby Dawgs this past weekend, head coach of the Campbell River Eagles Junior Bantam squad is optimistic they can compete in the regular season, especially if they get some more players to fill their ranks.

nial powerhouse Victoria Cougars 8-3 at Rod Brind’Amour Arena. Campbell River head coach Lee Stone said there’s no doubt this win is far more valuable than two points in the standings. “I thought we wanted to make a statement in our home rink, regardless of who we were playing against, but any time you can beat a team that has won the league championship three years in a row, that’s special,” he said. “For us, it sets the tone for the year against those guys (Victoria) and, quite frankly, I think it sends a message to the rest of the league.” After giving up a goal on the first shot of the game, the Storm rebounded with tallies by impressive rookie Kobe Oishi and veteran winger Gage Colpron to take a 2-1 lead after the opening 20 minutes. Campbell River began to take control of the contest in the second period, using their superior speed and skill to break down the Cougar’s defence.

Colin Blake scored twice and Michael Olson added a single to up the advantage to 5-3 heading into the final stanza. Victoria forward Robert Zadra tried a different tactic to get the locals off their game but that was taken care of by Storm captain Jordan Rauser early in the third. “He was r unning around, trying to get his team fired up by challenging some our guys to fight,” said Rauser. “I just decided to put an end to that.” The spirited scrap resulted in both players being ejected and fired up the Storm even more as they responded with unanswered goals by Devyn Grant, Grady McInnes, and Oishi with a second of the night. “It was good to see Jordan step up like that,” Stone said, “We are not interested in having a fighting, goon team but when guys like Zadra try to cause trouble we need our older players to take care of it. “Five on five I don’t think they (Victoria) can even come close to skating with us. Our speed

and skill is a lot of fun to watch and, when we utilize it, we score goals.” Trevor Bottomley was the hero on Friday night, scoring a power play goal 46 seconds into overtime to send a near capacity crowd of 984 home happy. The rookie defenceman crept into the slot and one-timed a perfect pass from Colin Blake over the blocker of Nanaimo goaltender Greg Maggio. “Blakey made a great pass and I didn’t even look, I just hammered it as hard as I could,” said Bottemley. “It’s been a long time since I’ve scored an overtime goal like that – probably three or four years ago in a spring tournament.” After falling behind 2-1 early, the Storm needed a late second period power play goal by a Michael Olson to send the game to an extra session. Maggio was outstanding in net for the Buccaneers, facing 24 shots in the third period alone. Overall, Campbell River outshot Nanaimo 57-21.

Tidemark has new seats to put bums in

T

he Tidemark Theatre’s makeover was unveiled to special guests Saturday night – but there’s still more to come. An emotional Denise Mitchell-Hills, a member of the T25 capital campaign committee, promised a crowd of Tidemark supporters and donors that this isn’t the end. “I just want you to know it’s not done,” Mitchell-Hills said. “We have a lot more plans for in here.” Still, Saturday was an exciting night for the Tidemark Theatre Society as it opened the doors to the theatre to reveal brand new, highbacked blue seats complete with drink holders. The new chairs were made possible through community donations,

but the Tidemark is still looking for seat sponsors. Generous donors have sponsored 113 of the 467 seats and those sponsors were asked Saturday to choose which seat they would like to put their name on. A choked up MitchellHills said the theatre “looked great” and said she couldn’t have done it without her “girls” who helped with the design selection. “I told them I wanted them to design something they’d be proud to come to and they did,” Mitchell-Hills said. “They really paid attention to the history and made it something that still feels like the Tidemark but a newer, improved version of it.” And speaking of improvements, the seats are just a part of the overhaul the Tidemark has undergone since kicking off its T25 capi-

Canada’s

tal campaign nearly four years ago. Since 2010, the Tidemark Theatre Society has upgraded the sound system, worth $50,000, has added a new projection system, installed an online ticketing system, and laid new carpet down in the lobby and has added new light fixtures. The upgrades have been funded through grants from Coast Sustainability Trust ($153,000), Island Coastal Economic Trust ($153,000), and the city of Campbell River ($250,000), as well as through donations from the community totalling $125,000. Kim Emsley-Leik, managing director of the Tidemark Society, said the amount raised in the community is proof of how valuable an asset the theatre is to the city. “This is a true testament to the support

we’ve received from the community,” EmsleyLeik said. “I hope you enjoy the newly renovated house. We’ve had some pretty big ambitions and we’ve managed to follow through, which is pretty cool.” But the work isn’t done. The Tidemark Society wants to raise another $50,000 to renovate the concession. “We’ve designed the concession, we’re ready to go,” said MitchellHills who added that the society would also like to add some furniture and a fireplace in the lobby, as well as new signage and new paint on the outside of the building.

Hearing practitioner happily outnumbered with new associate We have some great news that we want to share! We were hoping the newspaper would share our enthusiasm and print an article about it, but hospital construction and big hydro developments are more newsworthy than big changes at a little hearing clinic. Thus, we’re paying to have this exciting news announced. Campbell River Hearing Clinic has taken the concept of “family business” to a whole new level. Jana and I, are excited to welcome Jana’s sister and fellow Hearing Instrument Practitioner Renata Bartova to our practice. Despite the unpalatable reality of now facing a united voting block with every new decision, from where to go for lunch to how best to torment the odd man out, I am nonetheless convinced the move will benefit the people of Campbell River.

care in Campbell River. In all seriousness, Jana and I are extremely fortunate to have someone who enjoys working with people as much as Renata does; her friendliness and enthusiasm fit right in While it’s true she’s my with our team. wife’s sister and neither Renata and her of them are shy when husband Pavel, an it comes to sharing artist and graphic their opinions with designer, moved with me, Renata’s arrival is their youngest son to really going to help us Campbell River from continue to meet the North Vancouver growing demand for earlier this year. professional hearing They’re excited to be

on the Island, both to enjoy the wonderful area and to be closer to family once again. “We moved to Canada in 1997 after having visited Martin and Jana when they lived in 100 Mile House,” says Renata, who grew up in the Czech Republic and became a Certified Hearing Instrument Practitioner in 2006. “I actually did my practicum with Martin and Jana back then so I knew joining their clinic would be a good

fit. It’s great to be back working with, and living near, them.” We are also thrilled to have Renata on our team. She’ll only add to our reputation of friendly, caring service. The down side, of course, is that the sisters like to sometimes gang up on me. I might have to commission one of Pavel’s award-winning sculptures for the office just to even things out a bit!

Campbell River Hearing Clinic is located at Unit D 780 13th Avenue in Campbell River and is open Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. To make an appointment with Renata or Martin, call 250-914-3200. For more information and free hearing care resources, visit www. tohear.ca.
