Tour de Rock riders (pictured here on the Port McNeill to Sayward leg) rolled into town yesterday afternoon after starting off in Port Alice Sunday followed by stops in Port Hardy, Port McNeill and Sayward. The tour continues to the Comox Valley today after a gala event in Campbell River raising money for cancer research. The Canadian Cancer Society Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock raises money for pediatric cancer research and programs for children with a history of cancer. The Tour de Rock team cycles from one end of Vancouver Island to the other, over 14 days, covering 1,000 kilometres.

Mayoral candidates tee off over UBCM relevance Kristen Douglas

While city council is spending the week in Whistler representing the city at the Union of B.C. Municipali-

ties (UBCM) convention, the mayor is notably absent. Mayor Walter Jakeway told the Mirror two weeks ago that he would not be attending the conference because he believes it’s a waste of

time and taxpayers’ money – something he reiterated to Lower Mainland media last week. Coun. Andy Adams said he couldn’t disagree more and stressed that the convention has always been

“very productive” for Campbell River and will continue to be. “It really helps Campbell River position itself on a provincial basis,” Adams said from Whistler Monday afternoon. “I think there’s incredible

value for those who are here and it’s a detriment to those who aren’t here.” There are 1,531 registered attendees at this year’s UBCM which runs from Sept. 22-26. The convention Continued on Pg. 2

involves a series of workshops and provides the chance for local governments to come together and take a united position. Decisions such as extending council terms to four years as well as moving upcoming municipal election dates to October have all been decided at past UBCM conventions. Adams said UBCM also provides the rare opportunity for city councils and regional districts to meet with provincial ministers and ministry staff; often it’s a

chance to secure provincial funding for key city projects. Adams said, in his nine years on council, UBCM has been good for Campbell River. “As a result of meetings at the UBCM we got the support and approval for two new hospitals – one in Campbell River and one in the Comox Valley,” Adams said. “Also at the UBCM conference we got funding for the airport runway extension.” It was at the UBCM that the John Hart Generating Station replace-

ment project was secured and where the city worked out an agreement with the province to partner on upgrading Highway 19A through Willow Point, according to Adams. This year, city councillors plan to meet with minister of forests, lands and natural resources Steve Thomson to discuss plans for a community forest, as well as how to position Campbell River to take advantage of the resurgence of the forest industry on the coast. Adams said council will also meet with the

minister of natural gas development, Rich Coleman, to discuss LNG and future opportunities with Quicksilver LNG, the new owner of the former Catalyst mill site. As the minister responsible for housing, council also plans to discuss with Coleman the city’s recent land swap with Discovery Chiropractic to facilitate a new sobering centre for the city’s homeless and most vulnerable. Finally, Adams said council intends to meet with the minister of technology, innovation and citizens’ services.

“We’re also meeting with Minister (Andrew) Wi l k i n s on on t h e impacts of the lack of Internet connectivity and how it’s stalling the Creative Industries initiative to bring technology industries to Campbell River,” Adams said. “For example, Team Generous – which is here right now (working on a Habitat for Humanity promo video) – if we had improved connectivity, would be able to do a lot more.” Adams said all of the upcoming meetings are just a snapshot of the value of the UBCM.

Chamber fee proposal shot down Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Boulet said the chamber would likely be in favour of that, but as a second option. Coun. Storry, meanwhile, was concerned the city is not in a position legally to grant the reduction. “O u r C om mu n it y Charter won’t allow us to assist one business over another business,” Storry said. “Are we assisting the chamber to grow by discounting the business licences? Are we taking $25,000 out of the taxpayer purse to assist the chamber?” Coun. Claire Moglove

was also not too sure. “I’m concerned about the optics of us incenting businesses to join the chamber,” said Moglove who added she would like to see more research into business taxation. Council agreed with Moglove and voted to have city staff conduct an in-depth analysis of the business licensing and taxation model sometime next year. Council also voted to defer any decision re g ard i ng bu s i n e ss licence fee reductions to the 2015 budget deliberations in January.

Outdoor pool numbers make a splash Campbell River’s Centennial Pool (pictured right) was even more popular this summer than it was during last year’s sunny season. General admissions at the outdoor pool from June 2 through August 24 was up by more than 1,000 visits, according to a City of Campbell River press release. The pool schedule was adjusted this summer to offer more family, public and length swimming. New evening Swimfit and Aquafit classes were offered. Additional length swims and new fun, family drop-in lessons were held on weekends. Red Cross swim lessons, including Bronze Medallion and Cross certifications and a popular Junior Lifeguard Camp were also available. “We’re pleased to have offered safe and satisfying swim time for so many people this summer and look forward

to another successful season in 2015,” says Ross Milnthorp, the city’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture.

Council turned down an initiative by the Chamber of Commerce to reduce fees for local businesses with the mayor saying the chamber needs to find another way to attract members. At last week’s Tuesday council meeting, councillors rejected a $50 reduction in licensing fees for businesses that hold a membership with the Chamber of Commerce. Michael Boulet, president of the Campbell River and District Chamber of Commerce, said the incentive was crafted by City of Campbell River and chamber staff as a way to increase membership with the chamber. “The purpose is to assist in creating greater inclusion of local business membership within the Chamber of Commerce,” Boulet told council. Currently, approximately 470 Campbell River businesses belong to the chamber out of more than 2,000 businesses registered in the city. Mayor Walter Jakeway said he’d like to see more. “I’m a member of the chamber and I attend their meetings. I’ve challenged them to find

out why the majority of businesses in town don’t join,” Jakeway said. “Rather than trying to do it with money, they need to find out why they’re not meeting the needs of all those other businesses.” C ounci l lors Andy Adams and Mary Storry had other concerns. With $50 knocked off the price of the $150 annual business licence fees, the city stands to lose between $20-to$25,000. Adams said that’s a decision he didn’t want to make so close to the Nov. 15 municipal election date. “I think this is a good initiative by the chamber but I don’t think it’s appropriate to encumber a future council to deal with that,” Adams said. “We’ve gone this long without it, I think putting it off until January isn’t too onerous.” Adams asked Boulet whether the Chamber would be open to an incremental increase. “Appreciating that it’s a $20-to-$25,000 revenue stream coming from taxpayers coming from the city, would the chamber be adverse to say a $25 reduction in year one and maybe another $25 in year two on the premise it had shown some positive results in year one?” Adams asked.

City council awards permissive tax exemptions to several local non-profit community groups KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

C ouncil approved more than $898,000 in tax exemptions to 74 community groups at Tuesday evening’s council meeting. Barry Watchorn, chair of the city’s Community Partnership Committee which reviews the exemption applications, said that “providing non-profit organizations with permissive tax

exemptions offers support to these community groups.” Groups such as the Campbell River and District Association for Community Living, Campbell River and District Museum and Archives, the North Island Transition Society, the food bank, the Head Injury Support Society, a variety of sports clubs, and church groups were all recipients of tax exemptions for 2015.

The city also gave out tax breaks to five new applicants. The Willow Point Supportive Living Society was awarded an exemption worth $1,359 made up of $743 in city taxes and $615 in taxes collected by other taxing authorities such as the school district, hospital district and regional district. The society, which provides affordable housing to lower income seniors,

applied for the tax exemption on a recently purchased patio home. The BCSPCA was given a $1,369 tax break and Volunteer Campbell River was awarded a $448 permissive tax exemption on its new space in the Enterprise Centre. Opportunities Career Services Society, which provides social and employment services, and training to multib ar r i e re d c l i e nt e l e unlikely to find employment, was given a $6,693 tax exemption while the Eagles Water Ski Club was granted a $970 tax exemption. Two organizations –

the Discovery Harbour Authority and the Communitias Supportive Care Society applied for tax exemptions but were denied by council. Watchorn said Discovery Harbour Authority, which operates the Discovery Harbour boat launch, said it did not meet the criteria for a tax break. “The northern portion of the marina falls under the jurisdiction of DFO while the boat launch and parking lot is owned by Discovery Harbour Holdings Ltd. which is controlled by the Campbell River Indian Band,” Watchorn wrote in a report to council. “The

committee agreed that the application did not satisfy council’s permissive tax exemption policy because the Discovery Harbour Authority does not fall under the category of a non-profit community organization.” Communitias Supportive Care Society provides support for people living with developmental disabilities, mental health issues and acquired brain injuries but was denied a tax break because of its financial status. “ The committee… noted that the organization’s operating budget is very large in comparison to the requested

($9,670) tax exemption,” Watchorn wrote. “The organization has alternate sources of funding and its financial statements indicate an operating surplus.” While council was pleased to approve several permissive tax exemptions for 2015, at the same time it referred its policy on tax breaks to the Community Partnership Committee for a full review in 2015. The review is expected to address provincial downloading and to consider implementing a permissive tax exemption cap similar to the city’s grant-in-aid program.

Campbellton school to be revived KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

John Hart construction workers will transform the former Campbellton school site into project offices after city council gave its approval last week. At the Sept. 16 council meeting, councillors granted contractor Aecon SNC-Lavalin joint venture a development permit to add trailers to the property and spruce up the old school building. Scott Marshall, project manager for the John Hart Generating Station replacement project, told council that crews need a place to store specialized equipment that will be brought in prior to construction. “We’ve looked at several sites and the best one we’ve come up with and the one we want to use is the Campbellton school site,” Marshall said. “We would use the

school field for parking and use the two existing buildings as a warehouse area and storage area.” Marshall said multiple trailers would be set up around the buildings to create an office complex. Those trailers would ser ve as meeting rooms, project offices and washrooms. Marshall said he sees the initiative as a way to improve the area. “We will renovate the two existing buildings and turn them into shops and warehouses,” Marshall said. “ The school yard itself, I think we’re going to enhance the Campbellton area. I met with the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association last week and I think they’re in support of what we’re doing.” Marshall said having the contractors based at the school site will also reduce the amount of traffic using High-

way 28 because workers will park at the site and then be bused to and from the John Hart construction site. Kathleen Wilker, the city’s planner, wrote in a report to council that the school is expected to serve as office space for the workers for at least five years. She said because the school property is in such close proximity to the Haig-Brown/ Kingfisher Creek an environmental assessment and report has been done on the site to assess potential impacts on the waterway. 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) t he environment a l professional concludes that (the) most effective mitigation measures will be to replant the area with vegetation found in a riparian eco-

system,” Wilker said. Marshall told council he’s aware Aecon SNCLavalin needs to abide by a buffer and setback distance from the creek. “Anything that’s hazardous will be stored in the school site,” Marshall said. Marshall also provided council with a brief John Hart upgrade project update, reporting that a major bridge crossing was recently completed over the three existing penstocks, which will accommodate construction crews. The billion-dollar project – which will see a new generating station built underground and the penstocks which carry the city’s drinking water replaced with a single underground tunnel – is in the preliminary stages. Blasting is underway and is expected to continue until November to make way for the underground infrastructure.

as the city’s only dog park, Penfield West, is often overcrowded. “ T h e pu b l i c h a s requested more offleash parks, parks located closer to their home, parks with access to water, parks with offleash trails to exercise their dog and parks with open spaces for socializing and field games,” Milnthorp wrote in a report to council. Mayor Walter Jakeway suggested last year, shortly after Coastal Animal Control took over the city’s animal enforcement contract, that the city look into more off-leash areas following the company’s promise of random weekend and evening patrols. Coun. Mary Storry agreed and said she would like to see other options, like a wilderness path. So, city staff came up with a list of six different areas to try and meet those demands over the next two years. S e q u o i a Pa r k , a wooded area behind the Museum at Campbell River, and McIvor Lake were suggested for 2014, with parks at Maryland Park, Willow Point Park and Franzen Park in 2015. Though the first wave of parks have already been budgeted for this year some councillors said at Tuesday’s council meeting that they were concerned about the maintenance costs, which are estimated at $15,500 per year, starting in 2015. “That’s where I’m a little uncomfortable because we’re approving to build these three parks; we’re essentially making a service level change request decision for 2015,” said Coun. Andy Adams who noted that means the new council would be tied up with costs it didn’t approve. Coun. Claire Moglove agreed. “I do support the idea of having dog parks but until we know where we stand with our budget situation moving into 2015 I’m not prepared to commit a new council to $15,500,” Moglove said. “It might not seem like a lot but we don’t know where we sit in terms of revenue, in terms of expenses.” Moglove was also con-

cerned that dog parks, which were rated as a third priority in a public parks survey conducted by the city, were taking priority over the number one and two priorities development of Robron Park and completion of the Sea Walk/Robert Ostler Park improvements, respectively. Council in the end chose to defer the issue of developing off-leash dog areas to 2015 budget deliberations so the new council can make the decision. City staff are looking at designating the portion of Sequoia Park (across from the Museum) from the top of the stairs to the beach as an off-leash area as well as the park behind the Museum and at McIvor Lake’s Doggie Point. The final three spots – Willow Point Park, Mar yland Park and Franzen Park are suggested as a second wave to come in 2015. The cost to convert those three areas is expected to be $107,000, with an additional $21,000 annually for maintenance. Willow Point Park would need the most work in order to accommodate a dog park, Milnthorp said. “This proposed offleash area would be the most expensive to develop,” Milnthorp said. “It would require extensive ground clearing, addition of ground cover, developing an attractive sound and visual buffer along Alder Street and amenities (including double gates at each of the two entrances).” City staff ’s proposal is to locate the dog area in front of the skate park along Alder Street, which would make it the city’s largest designated off-leash area. Maryland Park and Franzen Park (located between Franzen Road and Pinecrest Road) would be aimed at residents who live within walking distance of each park. Milnthorp said the proposed locations are expected to become some of the most popular areas within the city’s parks system. “Off-leash areas are multigenerational and will attract residents and visitors alike,” Milnthorp said.

According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), Campbell River and District General Hospital (CRDGH) is well above average in almost everything it does – and below average in everything that it would be better to be low on, such as wait times. On Sept. 18, CIHI unveiled a new web tool that will change the way the public sees its healthcare system. CIHI’s “Your Health System” website provides comparable and interactive medical facility data to anyone looking for it, and allows the user to compare it to different groups of the their choice. One could compare their local hospital to specific others, regional,

provincial or national averages, or any combination of those. For example, you can now find out that average wait time at the CRDGH Emergenc y Department to get a physician assessment is 1.7 hours. That might sound like a long time, but when you compare it to the 3.1 hours at hospitals in the “Community–Medium” category nation-wide, or even the 2.2-hour average within the Vancouver Island Health Authority (now known as Island Health), it could be seen as exceptional. CRDGH also has a lower percentage of patients readmitted to hospital within 30 days of discharge than the Island-wide average, at 8.4 per cent, with only Saanich Peninsula Hospital (7.3 per cent), West Coast General Hospital (7.7 per cent) and Lady

Minto Gulf Islands Hospital (7.8 per cent) being better in this category. The provincial average is 9.4 per cent. Only 4.6 per cent of patients under the age of 19 are readmitted to CRDGH within 30 days of discharge, almost two full percentage points better than the Canadian Average. CRDGH also has the fewest deaths following major surgery of all Island hospitals, at a mere one per cent, almost half as many as the national average (1.8 per cent). This is a remarkable improvement from 20102011, when the hospital was up over three per cent in this category. Check out more statistics at yourhealthsystem. cihi.ca for more if you’re interested in other facilities’ healthcare data or other comparisons.

Our View

B.C. faces many growth challenges

Statistics Canada’s latest population projections do not bode well for B.C.’s future, on a number of counts. The federal agency has B.C. falling to fourth-largest province in the country, with Alberta moving ahead of it to third. This is We say: Simple projected to happen over the next 20 population growth years or so. B.C. will still be growing — but at is not enough to a lesser rate than Alberta is projected ensure prosperity to grow. Perhaps more dramatically though, B.C.’s population of seniors is expected to grow the most, to 27 per cent of the population by 2038. This is a higher-than-usual

percentage of seniors, who for the most part will not be working and contributing to long-term economic growth. At the same time, they will put added pressure on the health care system. This is not to say that seniors are bad for a province or an economy. It is simply that their needs bring new challenges to an economy which is already hobbled by minimal growth, and to a province where every resourcebased proposal is met with a fury of opposition. A province cannot thrive long-term without economic growth. Simple population growth is not enough. B.C. is already a very expensive place to live. At the same time, few younger people have the opportunity to

make really good incomes, and are thus handicapped from getting ahead. Taxes in B.C. are already quite high, which is masked by the sleight-of-hand about low income tax rates. However, when the seven per cent PST, ICBC rates, ferry fares, BC Hydro rates (all of which are tax increases), TransLink taxes and MSP premiums are taken into account, taxes are quite onerous on many people already. Low economic growth will inevitably lead to even higher taxes. B.C. weather and scenery are great, but they don’t pay the bills. – Black Press

Letters

Proud community is willing to help homeless I was delighted to read that the City of Campbell River, Discovery Chiropractic and the Family Services Society have come to an agreement which will see a sobering assessment centre open soon in Campbell River. This is an innovative and compassionate move and I want to thank all the people involved. The homeless shelter pilot project last winter was a great success and it was clear that not only did it provide a desperately needed haven for our homeless citizens it also made economic sense. Then the project ended and it closed. By providing a permanent place in our community to serve some of the poorest and least advantaged citizens we are once again showing great leadership and it is reflection of the humanity and compassion of this town. My husband and I moved here a little more than five years ago and I am so happy and proud that we call Campbell River home.

Crossing the real and illusory borders of my life

Alistair Taylor

Out On A Limb @AlstrT

editor@campbellrivermirror.com

Before we leave the interruption by the Scottish referendum and return to regularly-scheduled programming, I have to pass on a chuckle I got from Facebook maven George Takei. It said, “Overheard: ‘Well, if Scotland had voted for independence from the U.K., what would have kept Canada from breaking away from the U.S.?’” Hyuk! Anyway, I would have written about my recent troubles with the U.S. border patrol last week but caught up in the struggle for freedom in the land of my parents (and mine for four years as a child). So, let us return to the U.S.-Canada border. You may remember, I tend to have curious encounters at the border. Once I thought I was being subjected to crafty interrogation techniques when

a CBP (Customs and Border Protection) officer asked me how long I’d lived in the U.S.? Confused, I stammered, “I’ve, I’ve never lived in the U.S.” He said, “What?” and then looked at my passport again and saw that it said UGA not USA for my place of birth. UGA is short for Uganda, where I was born. If my parents hadn’t fled Scotland in a valiant attempt to free themselves from the tyranny strangling their homeland...Okay, okay, they were taking up work and adventure in a world still much under the rule and privilege of the British Empire. Consequently, I was born in Africa and not Airdrie, my parents’ hometown. Which leads us back to the Port Angeles port of entry into the U.S. The CBP officer laughed at his mistake and gave me back my passport.

Another time, I was crossing the border into Montana in an isolated outpost at Carway, Montana when a good natured CBP officer jokingly asked me if I really expected him to believe I didn’t have a criminal record when I worked as a newspaper editor? Then, two weeks ago, we crossed into the U.S. at Port Angeles, Washington once again. This time we were taking my son to university in Idaho. We expected his student visa to be scrutinized and processed thoroughly but nothing happened. I even went back into the CBP office to say is this okay to go? The officer looked at the form and said, “Yeah” with a shrug and sent us on our way. Well, sure enough, my son checks into the international students’ office and is told that there is no record of his entry into the U.S. Guess what that means – a

quick dash to a border crossing to have his visa processed properly. Oh, and the nearest one was six hours north at Coutts, Montana. So, what was to be our last day with my son was spent dashing to the border to get his visa processed. I pulled into the Canadian customs – because we have to leave the U.S. and reenter – and the Canadian customs officer says to me, deadpan, “You’re going to enter into the country and turn around and head right back. Correct?” Yep. We pulled away from the booth, took the lane marked “Return to the U.S.” and crossed back into America. Thankfully, the U.S. CBP officer to whom I explained the problem processed the visa properly, explained what all needed to be done during each crossing and sent us back to the university. Six more hours away.

Another chapter in the Mountain Bike Park saga Reporter

MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Bruce and Roberta Douglas of Springbok Road are upset about the possibility of the space between their property and Dogwood Street becoming a mountain bike training park. The park, which is still in the early stages of development, recently went through city council after a long battle that included various studies and site explorations, and is in the process of a rezoning application to see if the project is feasible. “We wish to register our strong opposition to siting this kind of facility so close to residential properties,” said the Douglas’ recent letter to the Mirror, citing various concerns and proposing another cite be found for the park, possibly within an existing recreational park or in an industrial area of the city, “where family homes would not

be disturbed.” According to Wendy Ravai of the Campbell River Bike Park Society, the community consultation process is still underway, and any concerns that people have will be addressed in the final plan, well before any development begins. “If people feel the development plan doesn’t address their concerns, we would examine that during the consultation process,” she said, emphasizing that the project could only move forward to the development proposal stage after the feasibility assessment stage, and that stage couldn’t happen until a site was determined. At this point, even that aspect of the project remains unsettled, so public concerns may be premature. “Our goal is to work through the process with the entire community, to create something that will benefit the entire community,” Ravai said.

“No process is perfect,” she said of the fact that the site needed to be approved before the actual development plan could be developed, unfortunately complicating the relationship between the proponents of the park and the community, “but it’s the process that’s in place, and we’re working within that process to see if we can make it work.” Ross Milnthorp, General Manager of Parks, Recreation and Culture for the city of Campbell River said he has heard the concerns of the residents on adjacent properties, as well, and they are being taken into consideration. “We have a lot of the same concerns as they do. We go through this any time we have any project on any public

land,” he said, adding that it is still “very, very early in the process,” and anyone with any apprehension will have many opportunities throughout the process to voice those concerns and have them addressed, not only through public open houses, but also at council, as well as during the actual rezoning application process. There may be an issue with the current proposed location that doesn’t have anything to do with concerns from nearby residents, however. The city of Campbell River’s records were apparently incorrect when they originally approved the location for the park at the Aug. 12 meeting of council, and part of the section of land that was approved for its

Get started on a writing project There two writing programs on offer in Campbell River this fall, instructed by Annette Yourk and Jeanette Taylor. Writing Family History, Biography & Memoir runs at the Museum at Campbell River from October 5 to November 9, 2014, in five weekly sessions on Sunday afternoons. The cours e takes writers through all the phases of a project, from research to organizing and planning techniques, story development and publication options. Use your own writing project as a base for in-class and homework exercises to hone your skills. The fee is $160 and includes a comprehensive manual. Call the Museum at Campbell River to register at 250-287-3103. Taylor and Yourk will also lead a new biomonthly program, A Writer’s Workshop, at the Campbell River Arts

Council from October 4 to November 29. Participants will sharpen their skills through writing exercises, peer discussions and facilitated writing reviews. The sessions are on Saturday afternoons, with the possibility of more to come in the new year, at the Sybil Andrews Cottage in Willow Point. The format, say the organizers, is akin to a writers’ group. The fee is $125. Call the Campbell River Arts Council at 250-923-0213 or e-mail them at arts. council@crarts.ca. You can also register on line at: http://www.crarts.ca/ Taylor and Yourk, both Quadra Islanders, teach writing courses throughout the region.

Get into the art trade with Artist Trading Cards

Would you like to create and trade miniature works of art? Why not check out the next Artist Trading Card event at the Campbell River Art Gallery, Thursday, Sept. 25 at 7 p.m. Everyone is welcome. Bring 10-20 cards to trade and tell your friends! Cards should be 2.5 inches x 3.5 inches exactly so they fit in the sleeves that are used for saving baseball cards. The theme is open. Original cards, not photocopies, are preferred. The cards are miniature works of art and are meant to be traded, not bought or sold. This is a fun, social and creative program that meets four times a year to swap trading cards. The only difference between these and sports trading cards is that you create your own homemade 2 ½ x 3 ½ inch trading card like a miniature work of art. Your cards can be painted, collaged, mixed media, photographs, three dimensional shapes, or found objects. There are no rules. It’s up to you where your creativity leads you. Sign the back as you would any art work and add contact info if you wish.

Celebrate dance and Irish culture during Culture Days this weekend when the Tara School of Irish Dancers will hold a performance and an introductory workshop on Irish dance.

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Celebrate Culture Days and Come to the Ceili

To celebrate Culture Days, BC, The Tara School of Irish Dancing invites you to “Come to the Ceili” on Friday, Sept. 26 from 6:30-8 p.m. at the Willow Point Hall. Fol lowing p er formances by the dancers, the audience will be invited to join in some Ceili dancing and then, perhaps, to join in a “mini” intro to Irish Dance session. Free and fun for the whole family, the glorious music and stirring dancing will warm your heart. Everyone is welcome to join

in the ceili dancing or simply sit back, relax and enjoy some light refreshments and experience the joy of the music and dance of Ireland. Culture Days is a collaborative, Canada-wide volunteer movement to raise the awareness, accessibility, participation and engagement of all Canadians in the arts and cultural life of their communities. The first annual Culture Days event swept across more than 700 Canadian cities and towns during the last

National Culture Days is being celebrated this weekend across Canada and the Sybil Andrews Cottage Artists are putting on an event to mark the celebration. The group will be hosting and demonstrating at least 10 different art forms on Saturday, 10-2 p.m., at the Cottage. The public is invited. The Sybil Andrews Cottage Artists do art mainly to help charities fund-raise at their spe-

cial events and they put on a couple of special events themselves dur-

weekend of September 2010, generating an extraordinary amount of enthusiasm in the process. This year’s Culture Days weekend will take place on September 26-28. Once again, the event will feature free, hands-on, interactive activities that invite the public to participate “behind the scenes”— and to discover the world of artists, creators, historians, architects, curators, and designers at work in their community.

It’s easy to feel invincible when you’re healthy – and let’s hope you stay healthy for a long, long time. But what if the unthinkable happens and you become disabled or critically ill? Who would continue to provide the income that supports your family’s lifestyle and provide vital essentials like food and shelter? The right living benefits insurance that fits your needs will provide financial security for the tough times and peace of mind for the good times. Disability Insurance can provide a source of income should you become unable to earn a living because of an injury or accident. Using savings, drawing from your investments held in your RRSP, or going into debt to finance your loss of income can significantly impact your current lifestyle as well as your plans for the future. For business owners, disability insurance is essential to avoid the personal

financial losses that can be fatal to your business. The benefits from a personal owned disability plan will be tax-free and will continue during the benefit period while disabled. Critical Illness Insurance complements the benefits available from a disability plan by paying out a lump-sum of money if you contract a specific life threatening illness, such as cancer, stroke, or heart attack. You can use the funds to pay for treatment, subsidize your income or even to pay off your mortgage, personal or business loans. Many Canadians assume our healthcare system will pay all their expenses if they become critically ill but some medications aren’t covered, nor are additional expenses like travel, daycare and homecare. Long Term Care Insurance pays out benefits for those requiring homecare including medical care, nursing care in the home, homemaker services, respite care for

caregivers, and any other costs that may arise during the period of impairment. It is widely assumed that all long term care services are paid for by the provincial health care systems – but this is not the case. The reality is that many necessary services are often in excess of government aid and can add up to $4,000 in monthly long term care costs. There’s no doubt that living benefits insurance coverage can help you control your future and protect your family’s financial health. However, the available type of benefits and options can vary – that’s why you should discuss your needs with your professional advisor who can help you get the coverage that’s best for you.

DEATHS

Myrtle Irene Bird (nee Campbell) August 23rd 1914 – September 15th 2014

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Myrtle Bird. She passed away peacefully on Monday, September 15th having recently celebrated her 100th birthday. Predeceased by her husband Bill Sr, father John, mother Charlotte, brother Clarence and daughter-in-law Joy, she is survived by her son, Bill Jr, grand-daughters Shevaun (Rod) and Danielle (Andreas) and greatgrandchildren Sienna and Ramsey. Myrtle was born and raised in Winnipeg and she completed her nurses’ training at Winnipeg General Hospital. As a young nurse, she moved west to the wilderness of the BC coast in the early 1940s, arriving by Union Steamship at Rock Bay to begin work at the Columbia Coast Mission Hospital. In 1944, she met and married husband Bill who was working in the logging camp at Rock Bay. With young son Bill Jr as well as long-time friends and neighbours, Harold and Ethel Redford, they moved to Kelsey Bay in 1948. In Kelsey Bay, Myrtle took up the role of homemaker, but her medical knowledge and aptitude were frequently called upon. On many occasions, often in the middle of the night, she accompanied patients on a bumpy journey to the hospital in Campbell River, riding in the company ambulance driven by husband Bill. Eventually, she and Bill bought property south of Campbell River, at Oyster Bay, to enjoy in their retirement. It was here, at ‘Birds’ Abode’, that Myrtle spent over 40 years enthusiastically hosting friends and relatives from across Canada and the UK. She was always genuinely interested in the people she met and the places she visited, though her family was her greatest interest and source of enjoyment. Myrtle was a woman who knew her own mind as well as her ample capabilities and she was much admired for her tireless energy, admirable work ethic and upbeat outlook. An award-winning quilter, capable craftswoman and efficient cook, she will be fondly remembered for the countless hours she invested sharing her talents – as a doting grandmother, loyal friend, charitable citizen and gracious hostess! Myrtle’s family would like to thank the staff at both Yuculta Lodge and Ironwood Place for their care and support and express their utmost gratitude for the interminable love, care, friendship and support of Cynthia Baechler and her family. Predeceased by so many of her peers, Myrtle continued to appreciate the companionship and support of many lifelong friends and neighbours, especially the Redford/Luoma family, Judy Christensen, Bev O’Sullivan and Bev Dingwall. Special thanks also to Dr de Bruin and Jennifer Coolen (Evergreen Pharmacy) for their care and personal attention. Her family has decided that her well attended 100th birthday celebration was a fitting celebration of Myrtle’s life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Myrtle’s honour to the BC Children’s Hospital or a charity of your choice.

The Campbell River Storm is off to its best start in a decade thanks to a pair of recent victories over North Island Division rivals. The first place locals improved their leagueleading record to 6-0 by defeating the Nanaimo Buccaneers 4-2 Thursday on the road, and then returned home to spank the Oceanside Generals 8-2 the following night. “There are still areas we need to improve on but overall I’m pleased,” said Storm head coach Lee Stone, “For me the effort level is there and that’s what is most important. We have high expectations, so 6-0 is a good start to the season.” One bad habit Coach Stone would like to see his team kick is the notorious slow start. Campbell River fell behind early against Nanaimo

again, giving up a goal in the opening minute for the second straight game. The locals eventually got rolling however, tying the score on a beautiful shot by Gage Colpron at 18:02 of the first, and then taking the lead 43 seconds later on a goal by James Severs. Hard working rookie Christian Brandt scored the eventual game winner early in the second period on a quick wrist shot that found its way through the equipment of Nanaimo goaltender Greg Maggio before dribbling over the line. The Buccaneers made things interesting, notching a power play marker with five minutes remaining in the third, and then had a great chance to pull even when Olson took a hooking with 1:37 left on the clock. But outstand-

ing penalty killing by the tandem of Gavin Rauser and Tyler Welsh kept Nanaimo from setting up, and Colpron ended the threat by scoring into the empty net in the final minute, his second of the contest. “The Bucs were a tough team to play against last year and they’re the same this year,” said Stone, “They are a hard working team – they finish their checks, chip pucks deep – games against them are never going to be easy. I thought there were a lot of things we could of done better but, in the end, we managed to come out of their building with two points and that’s not an easy thing to do.” Back at home Friday night, The Storm put on a show for the 776 fans in attendance.

and Gavin Rauser each tallied twice, and Dane Feeney registered five assists as Campbell River overwhelmed the last place Generals 8-2. It was also a successful debut for Storm rookie netminder Kyle Cheema, making his first start of the season between the pipes. “I was a little nervous before the game started,” admitted the 17-year-old Cloverdale native, “but once we got the first five minutes out of the way I was fine. With our team and the amount of skill we have on the back end, it was easy. Our defensemen do a really good job of not giving up scoring chances, they keep everything to the outside.” Campbell River held period leads of 1-0 and 5-1, and outshot Oceanside by a final count of 59-20. Next up for the undefeated Storm is a battle of first place teams. The Westshore Wolves, leaders of the South Island Division with a record of 6 wins and only one loss, will be in town Friday night for a showdown at Rod Brind’Amour Arena.

The new Campbell River U13 Girls Rep soccer team played their first game at the Spit soccer pitch Sept. 14 against a competitive Nanaimo team. These 16 local athletes have stepped up to a larger pitch with 11 players per side. The team has committed to the high level of play expected at a Rep level and they did not disappoint. Their collective determination was evident and they kept Nanaimo on their toes for most of the first half. A late penalty

kick allowed Nanaimo to claim the first goal shortly before halftime. The girls kept up the pressure in the second half to match the aggressive style of the Nanaimo team. With two goals later in the second half, one mere minutes before the end of the game, the final score was 3-0 for Nanaimo. Despite the results, this Campbell River team proved that their fitness and team effort are top-notch. Even with the extremely hot weather these girls played hard and worked very well together.

Sunday was the final day of water ramps at Blackcomb for Podium of LIfe skiers. There were three different groups involved at a special camp held at Blackcomb: Podium of Life Snow Sports Academy, BC Development Freestyle Team, and Vancouver Freestyle Ski Club. Over 25 athletes participated in the last day, flipping and flying and spinning and twisting. The event brought kids from all over B.C. including a strong group from Vancouver Island, ranging in age from 10 to 17 years. “It was so rewarding to see the older kids mentor the younger ones,” says Shane Harle, a teacher Podium of Life Snow Sports Academy. “Some of the more experienced athletes performed some extreme tricks inspiring the younger ones to try new things.” With such good weather this summer, the water ramping has allowed athletes to hone their jumping skills.

BC Coaches Week Vancouver Island will see PacificSport members touring Vancouver Island putting on various free coaching clinics, lowcost educational opportunities within National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) and other workshops, some of which was put on at the Willow Point Sportsplex last weekend.

These coaching modules, according to Kevin Lindo of PacificSport Vancouver Island, usually cost upwards of $100 each, so this was a golden opportunityfor coaches.

There will be free Adult Beginner and Intermediate curling clinics happening on Monday, Sept. 29; Tuesday, Sept. 30; Wednesday, Oct. 1 at the curling club. Those planning on attending are expected to be present each of the three nights as the instructors will be building on and reviewing skills taught the previous night. The Beginner clinic will run for an hour each night beginning at 6:30. Beginners will learn the basic delivery and brushing techniques. Those attending the Beginner clinic should arrive at 6:10 so they can be sized for sliders and brushes, which are also provided free of charge. Beginners should wear warm, loose, comfortable clothing (sweatpants are great), and carry in a pair of flat-soled

shoes to wear on the ice (runners are excellent). The Intermediate clinic (for curlers who have one year or more experience) will run from 8-9 p.m. each night. Intermediate curlers will have a chance to improve their deliveries and brushing techniques and play a two-end mini-game the last night to try out their new skills. If you are planning to attend either clinic, or have any questions, call the curling club manager, Susan, at 250287-4200 to register. Walk-ins are also welcome, but advance registration is appreciated. A team of excellent instructors will be offering their expertise, so don’t miss out on this great opportunity.
