A grizzly shot downtown last week has once again highlighted the need for community-based solutions.

Community agrees to work together for solutions in wake of grizzly shooting BY CAITLIN THOMPSON A grizzly bear shot downtown last week has once again brought the issue of humanwildlife conflicts to the forefront. This year many residents have reported a spike in bear activity, especially in the townsite, with numerous bears being sighted in broad daylight strolling the streets and raiding fish tubs, fruit trees and berry bushes. Last week a grizzly was shot along the Bella Coola River at approximately 10:30 in the evening. The shooters were unable to determine if they had killed or wounded the bear as the shots were fired in the dark and from a considerable distance. People were on edge as it was unsure whether or not the bear had survived. At first light the next morning a coalition of responders including the Nuxalk Guardians, the RCMP, and BC Parks took to the river and found a second grizzly eating the carcass of the shot bear. Later conversations with the Conservation Officer Service,
the Nuxalk Nation, and the RCMP agreed that targeting a bear in darkness was not safe and could have resulted in a wounded, and therefore more dangerous, animal. Many people treasure the presence of bears in the Valley, but that relationship is complicated as many people are also fearful of them. However, using firearms to deal with bears comes with its own set of risks. “I believe the community is fearful of both grizzlies walking the streets and people running around with firearms shooting at night. Shooting at night is always a concern for obvious reasons,” said Conservation Officer Len Butler. “Under provincial legislation it is unlawful to discharge a firearm at wildlife at night except in problem wildlife situations where a human safety factor is considered.” The Nuxalk Nation has also expressed regret over the shooting, saying it was unfortunate. “The shooting of the bear was an unfortunate incident which we should learn from as a community,” said Stewardship Director Megan Moody. “From
here on, the Nation wants to move forward and work with community members, the Conservation Officers and the RCMP to come forward with solutions.” Solutions were the focus of a joint meeting last Thursday night which included numerous community members and agencies involved in dealing with wildlife. Several options were discussed to try and alleviate a number of problems. “The community and all the players involved made the first step working together last Thursday night. The Nuxalk Nation, COS, RCMP, BC Parks and WildSafeBC sorted out differences and hopefully will work together to make entire community safer and deter grizzly bears from using the current corridors through town,” said Butler. “We have come up with some solutions to attempt to prevent human bear conflicts.” The following morning the alleyways, backyards and roads were being brushed out and opened up. The electric fence program was discussed, as was the possibility of bear
hazing training for the Nuxalk Guardians and fish containment for the daily catch. “Removing the attractants is the answer but change is difficult,” said Butler. Chief Councilor Wally Webber expressed his frustration at the lack of a full-time CO in the Valley, and Butler responded that the community 'unfortunately has not put forth a good enough argument or maintained enough effort.' However, the COS has entered an agreement with BC Parks to provide CO training to a Park Ranger in the Valley to help alleviate some of the pressure. While there is no question Nuxalkmc people have lived next to bears for thousands of years, some residents feel unnerved by the proximity of the animals and are worried for their safety and the safety of their children. However it's how the bear behaves towards people, not necessarily how close it is, that determines whether or not the COS will remove it. “Given the current situation with the bears natural feeding
and the discussions with the community, the Nuxalk Nation the COS have decided not to remove any more bears at this time,” said Butler. “Although they are close by, they are not exhibiting aggressive behaviour.” The COS did utilize other tactics such as rubber bullets to discourage the animals from residential areas, but without a full-time officer follow-through is difficult and the bears tend to return quickly. Melody Schooner, whose property at the end of Top Street has been a hub of bear activity, is hopeful the solutions will be enough. Schooner said she doesn't mind the bears nearby feeding in the creeks, but she can’t handle them bedding down near her backyard. “I’m nervous for the kids just going to the bus stop in the morning, I don't want that bear to hurt anyone,” she said. With the help of the Nuxalk Bear Safety Project, Schooner has removed fruit trees, berry bushes, and fenced her salmon. SEE BEAR ON PAGE 3

Nuxalk Bear DNA Study looking to find answers on bear behaviour FROM PAGE 1 She smokes and cans fish all summer and fall, and her family depends on that food. This summer's close encounters have left her too anxious to do anymore. “I'm still feeling scared,” she said. “I'd like to smoke more fish but with that bear around I'm not going to chance it.” Community leader Clyde Tallio suggested community initiatives to pick the fruit and establish a protocol around dealing with bears that overstep residents’ comforts zones. “The whole community, from townsite to up Valley, needs to come together and combine our collective knowledge, stories
and ideologies,” said Tallio. “Traditional knowledge tells us we weren't taught to be afraid of bears, so we need to reassess our values and what our young people will inherit and come up with a solution that will help us to return to coexisting with our environment.” There are thought to be several other factors influencing the bears behaviour, and this is also something the Nation wants to understand. The Nuxalk Bear Study is hoping to answer some of those questions. “We are continuing to reduce any attractants in the community, but there are factors affecting the bears that we do not yet fully under-
stand,” said Moody. “Through our Nuxalk Bear (DNA) Study we hope to learn more about their movements, population numbers and how salmon numbers are affecting them. We need to adapt our behaviour and try to understand what is changing theirs if we want to have them around in the future. We are not going anywhere and neither are they.” Hereditary Chief Deric Snow, who also attended the meeting last week, echoed that need for understanding. He also called for more face-to-face meetings among community members, saying that the use of social media sites like Facebook is not the
best way to communicate on such emotional issues. “The bear is a part of us, it's our crest and a smayusta, but we are also born with a bear spirit inside,” Snow said. “I understand there's a safety issue but I would like to see the bears kept alive. If there's any way to do that, I would like our people to go that way.” If a resident is concerned about a bear, they are urged to call the CO Hotline at 1-877-952-7277, the Band Office at 250 799 5633, WildSafe BC at 250-982-2298 or the RCMP at 250 799 5363. Electric fencing can be obtained on loan from the Nuxalk Bear Safety Project and WildSafe BC.

Visitors speak out on the failure of the ‘Nimpkish Summer; prove government wrong By Ernest Hall As a cost-cutting measure, this summer’s “Nimpkish Solution” has failed dismally. But, as an unintended “experiment” it has performed brilliantly: This is the view of anyone concerned with the changes to the Bella Coola – Port Hardy ferry service. This summer, the BC government replaced the 115car MV Queen of Chilliwack, sailing directly between Bella Coola and Port Hardy as the marine link in the Discovery Coast Circle Tour, with the 16-car MV Nimpkish, connecting with the Prince Rupert ferry route at Bella Bella. On a questionnaire conducted by Bella Coola Valley Tourism (BCVT), travelers overwhelmingly torpedoed the government and BC Ferries for the decision to deploy the oldest, smallest, and slowest vessel in the entire BC Ferries fleet on the third longest route. The move would save the ferry corporation $725,000 that it claimed was the net cost of operating the service with the larger Chilliwack. Critics of the cut say that service might have generated a profit if it had been properly managed. The ferry corporation’s “Nimpkish Solution” has backfired resoundingly: Many travelers already booked on the Circle Tour found there was no room on the tiny vessel and had to change their plans drastically, flying out or retracing their drive back down Vancouver Island or back across the Chilcotin. Those who did squeeze onto the vessel soon discovered they were cramped for nine hours on a boat with uncomfortably low bus-bench seating, little space to stretch their legs, one difficultto-access washroom at the bottom of the steep, narrow stairway to the car deck, constant shuddering and engine noise, and the minimal, complimentary, food service.
Many expressed safety concerns. On the questionnaire, many said their “Nimpkish Experience” was redeemed only by the spectacular scenery, the favourable weather, and the efforts of the vessel’s crew who did their best in an embarrassing situation. Many travelers decried the damage being done to the tourism industry and the effect this would have on the obviously struggling economy here. The BCVT questionnaire data are being analysed by two professional research firms. The traveler comments are available on-line by contacting info@bellacoola.ca. In other developments related to the failed “Nimpkish Solution”, the industry has identified a group to work with government and BC Ferries to recommend alternatives to the “Nimpkish Solution” in time to salvage part of the 2015 tourist season. There are recent indications that Tourism Minister Naomi Yamamoto might reconsider her decision not to form the “working group” she promised last spring but decided not to create because of regional “hostility”. Responding to industry concerns, Transportation Minister Todd Stone directed $100,000 for marketing the region in 2014. None of this
Bella Coola Valley Tourism President Doug Baker welcomes BC Tourism Minister Naomi Yamamoto to the MV Nimpkish on the Minister's visit to Bella Coola last spring. At the time, the vessel was awaiting refitting designed to make it more suitable for tourists, and Yamamoto promised to form a group to make the marine link in the Discovery Coast Circle Tour work. She since reneged on her promise, and the "Nimpkish Connector" has completed its summer as a dismal failure.
money was used to promote the Circle Tour because the agency that spent the funds did not deem the Nimpkish marine link “export ready”. Last month, Minister Stone reviewed in glowing terms his personal experience on the August 6 Nimpkish cruise he took with his family to Bella Coola. He was visibly dismayed upon learning of traveler complaints. (The new seating and free food services on the vessel - scorned by many passengers responding to the BCVT questionnaire had been installed at
his direction.) Stone has said his “Nimpkish Solution” to BC Ferries’ financial woes can work if BC Ferries improves the vessel further and if the Nimpkish marine link in the Circle Tour can be better marketed. He blames the industry for driving travelers away with their criticism. He recognizes that the tiny boat was full to capacity most of the summer. Industry experts point out that European travel agencies require many months for bookings and two or three years of reliable fare and scheduling informa-

tion. The “Nimpkish Solution” failed in 2014 and threatens the 2015 season. Experts say November 15 is the latest date for such information to be distributed in Europe in
order to salvage even a small part of the 2015 season. For many months, critics have repeatedly described the “Nimpkish Solution” as “ill advised, poorly
timed, short-sighted, and badly managed”. Last November, West Chilcotin Tourism Association President Bill Van Es told a government/BC Ferries panel: “You have come up with a way to save so much money, and it’s up to us to prove you wrong.” Visitors to the region have done just that: They have blown the “Nimpkish Solution” out of the water by providing hard, irrefutable, evidence that the “Solution” is a bandaid - poorly applied by the government to a serious BC Ferries wound. If the “Nimpkish Solution” has been an unintended experiment, BC’s decision makers now have undeniable results to act upon. Note: Ministers Stone and Yamamoto have received the 36 pages of passenger complaints about their Nimpkish Experiences and were invited to respond, but had not done so by press time.

Local craftsman carries on father's tradition Following in the footsteps of his father, Brian Bonn has created a brand new sign for the Bella Coola Airport. The late Willi Bonn created the previous Welcome sign that was destroyed last December when a freak windstorm hit the airport. The sign was built using locally sourced materials from his acreage, with the exception of the lettering, which is a reclaimed metallic slate. The cedar slabs were power saw milled from a cedar felled several decades ago. The lettering
and other graphics were hand cut using a four-inch angle grinder with a high quality diamond blade. “I wanted to use materials that would endure our moist climate while keeping the maintenance to a minimum,” said Bonn. “The entire project took a couple of weeks to complete and was an enjoyable endeavor. The staff at the airport say the tourists are once again taking their pictures next to the Welcome sign, with big smiles, which was the ultimate goal.”
Visitors to the Valley are welcomed by this beautiful new sign
