Topham receives support from OCLA AUTUMN MacDONALD Observer Reporter The Ontario Civil Liberties Association (OCLA) has thrown their support behind local journalist Arthur Topham. “My wife and I are extremely pleased and relieved that finally a prestigious organization such as the Ontario Civil Liberties Association has taken the time to review the case and rightfully conclude that it is a precedent setting one and important to Canadians everywhere
in terms of their Charter right to free expression,” Topham said. “In 2012, the Conservative government repealed the former Section 13 hate crime legislation then contained in the Canadian Human Rights Code because it was deemed unconstitutional. “Now we’re seeing the OCLA challenge the last remaining hate propaganda laws in the Criminal Code, Sections 318 to 320; laws that tend to benefit only certain small portions of Canada’s

population and are very susceptible to political manipulation. This initiative will hopefully free all Canadians of these draconian laws that have no place in a free and democratic society.” Topham was arrested and his house searched and items seized in late May of 2012 after it was determined there were “reasonable grounds the offence of promotion of hatred was committed.” The OCLA statement regarding Topham’s case states:
“Topham is a peaceful married man, a father of four, grandfather of eight and a small business man in a rural community, who has not previously been charged with any crime. In 2012, he was arrested in front of his spouse, detained and has been subjected to a broad house-invasive seizure, and to many preliminary court proceedings, in which he is now self represented by necessity.” The document then goes on to highlight justification for support.
Good day, Quesnel. Thanks for reading — and that includes loyal subscriber Jane Smith! To join the Observer family, please call 250-992-2121 and ask for circulation.
“The Ontario Civil Liberties Association believes that the proceedings against Mr. Topham are systemically political in nature and should not be consuming public, police, and judicial resources. “We believe that the proceedings are harmful to Canadian society, in addition to being unacceptably unjust towards a citizen. “The Ontario Civil Liberties Association knows of no scientific basis (sociological or psychological) whereby the emotion
of “hate” can be causally and deterministically induced in a person by a communicator of words posted to a website.” The organization is asking the attorney general to retract “her consent for the proceedings against Topham in the interest of preserving a just and democratic Canada.” Topham is next in court Oct. 27 if convicted he faces two years in jail.

West Quesnel land stability program open house slated The City of Quesnel is hosting an open house at the Royal Canadian Legion Hall on Thursday Oct. 2. The open house will begin at 6 p.m. with a formal presentation at 7 p.m. All residents are invited and encouraged to attend. This open house is to provide residents with detailed information on the 2013 Annual Monitoring Program and the final report of the Phase I work which was completed in 2012. Although this movement is specific to West Quesnel, the impacts on the entire community are substantial and the West Quesnel Land Stability program is pertinent to all Quesnel residents. To date, the City of Quesnel has committed over $4.4 million to the program. We know what the solution to the situation is however,
“A continued commitment from government will go a long way towards allaying fears and helping provide our community with the news that they are committed to providing a solution.” Mike Cave, Coun.
the costs for completing the remediation program are well beyond the financial ability of the City or its taxpayers. “We continue to meet with senior government officials and our conversations about Phase II are ongoing,” Mayor
Mary Sjostrom said. “The West Quesnel Land Stability program continues to be the highest priority for the City.” “Residents in the area have experienced significant damage to their homes and the general state of disrepair will continue if a solution is not fully implemented,” councillor and chair of the West Quesnel Land Stability Advisory Committee Mike Cave said. “A continued commitment from government will go a long way towards allaying fears and helping provide our community with the news that they are committed to providing a solution.” West Quesnel is a desirable place to live and an attractive community to approximately 20 per cent of the city’s population.

Fire fighting takes commitment and teamwork ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter For Quesnel volunteer fire department fire fighter Brian Dean there’s just one word to describe how he feels about his volunteer commitment – serving. “I moved here from South Africa in 2011 and thought joining the fire department would be a great way to get to know people in Quesnel,” he said. “I also wanted to be useful in the city, playing my part in the community beyond my everyday work.” Dean began his train-
Brian Dean
ing in January 2013 and qualified as a fire fighter in January 2014. For him, Dean knew from try-outs that he would enjoy doing this type of volunteering and after his extensive train-
ing and exposure to a lot the possibilities associated with fire fighting, he knew he’d been right. “This is something you have to commit to sticking with,” he said. “It’s not glamorous and can even be a little mundane at times, but the rewards of being part of a group of people committed to others and the satisfaction of helping others in dangerous situations makes it worthwhile. Go for it.” However, Dean was quick to add it’s certainly never about being a hero. “It’s much more about being willing to play any role on a heroic team,” he said.
“Some tasks seem less exciting, but every task is important.” Dean recalls his first couple of call-outs when his services weren’t even required. But his first response was to a fire at one of the mills. “It didn’t go as I had pictured it and I need help carrying equipment up and down many stairs, but it was great to be part of a team. Of course, I had visions of grandeur that may have involved rescuing someone, but it was not to be. Nevertheless, I returned feeling elated and without regrets.” Being a fire fighter and part of the Quesnel team
means many things to Dean. Words that spring to mind are camaraderie, hard work, team, sense of duty, friendship, commitment, discipline, training, more training and yet more training. “We don’t always get to douse the fire in time and sometimes it’s a false alarm, but being available when you are needed – even just to set people’s minds at ease, is very rewarding,” Dean said. As a recent recruit, Dean understand the need for ongoing recruitment. “People are regularly relocating or retiring and some are unable to continue due to changing commitments to work or
family, so new recruits are key to a continued strong force.” Dean was quite clear that fire fighting isn’t for the lazy or feint-of-heart. “There have been many exhilarating moments in burning buildings, on ladders, in thick smoke and extreme heat as well as vehicle accidents but its not about that, its about those willing to go the extra mile to serve the people of Quesnel at their time of need.” Quesnel has six fire halls and each could always do with a few more fire fighters. Oct. 5 – 11 is Fire Prevention Week. Anyone interested in volunteering call any of the fire halls.

Rolling
he Liberal wave keeps rolling across Central and Eastern Canada. Brian Gallant led the provincial Liberal party in New Brunswick to victory in this week’s election, in the process becoming, at 32, the country’s youngest premier. The Liberal victory in New Brunswick followed Liberal triumphs this year in elections in Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia. While there may not be an official alliance between provincial and federal Liberal parties, the electorate does not necessarily know or care for details of any relationships. To the average voter, a provincial Liberal is a federal Liberal and vice-versa – and that is usually true in terms of policy and politician, with the glaring exception of the British Columbia Liberal Party, which would be more at home federally standing alongside the Conservatives. There is little doubt the emergence of Justin Trudeau as federal Liberal leader has influenced voters provincially in those provinces that have recently elected Grit governments. Despite his off-the-cuff gaffes (on China’a dictatorship and the UkraineRussia conflict) and controversial, seemingly sudden, policy decisions (pro-marijuana legalization, pro-choice candidates and removing the Liberal tag from all erstwhile Grit senators), Trudeau resonates with enough voters to have become a serious threat to the status quo in Ottawa. Since the 2011 federal election, in which the Conservatives won a majority, there have been 13 by-elections. Of those, only two seats changed hands — and the Liberals stole both, from the Conservatives and New Democrats. It would seem Prime Minister Stephen Harper is facing a serious threat. And, if trends are any indication, consider the red wave soaking most of Atlantic Canada. The last time the Liberals held power in Canada, there were Grit governments in New Brunswick (1987 to 1999), Newfoundland and Labrador (1989 to 2003), Prince Edward Island (1993 to 1996) and Nova Scotia from 1993 to 1999. The Election Act of Canada dictates that the next federal election be held on Oct. 19, 2015. However, the governor general can still call an election at any time on the advice of the prime minister. Harper, it would seem, has a hard decision to make — wait to see if Trudeau’s popularity wanes or risk it getting more pervasive. –Black Press
Is CUPE running your city hall? T
he big story at this year’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention was a report commissioned by the B.C. government that reveals municipal pay increases for unionized staff have been running at twice the rate of provincial raises. When I asked Premier Christy Clark about the intent of this report, leaked just before the annual UBCM convention, she was blunt. It’s to get this issue onto the agenda for the November municipal elections, which the province has decreed shall be for four-year terms instead of three. After local elections, discussions with surviving and incoming municipal politicians will resume. Things have been going pretty well for the main municipal union, the Canadian Union of Public Employees, for the last couple of decades. As local election turnout has gone from bad to worse, municipal employees themselves have become an increasingly dominant voting bloc. Then there are the “labour councils” in urban centres, now almost entirely fronts for public sector unions. They quietly survey council
Tom Fletcher
B.C. Views candidates to determine their level of affection for ever-growing public payrolls, and dole out campaign funds accordingly. Sometimes they organize full slates, with cuddly names like “Protect Coquitlam” to appeal to low-information voters. During last week’s convention in Whistler, I caught up to Finance Minister Mike de Jong in a brief break from the dozens of meetings cabinet ministers have with mayors, councillors and regional directors. Is the province going to impose some kind of solution? “There’s not some hidden legislative agenda,” de Jong replied. More data needs to be gathered, and the report shows ongoing problems with management salaries at the provincial level as well. Is this the first step to imposing a tight-fisted
and Young’s numbers, the pay increases for municipal union staff of 38 per cent between 2001 and 2012, compared to 19 per cent for unionized provincial staff? Did he question their calculation that over that period, inflation totalled 23 per cent? No. The facts being against him, he went with an emotional pitch to distract from them. Recall that during the final days of the teachers’ strike, Horgan suddenly decided that what was really needed was binding arbitration. This was 24 hours after the teachers’ union took that position. So there’s the big question to be considered by voters as local elections draw near. Which candidates are looking out for your interests, and which ones are working on behalf of CUPE? There’s another troubling trend in manipulation of local government that was more evident than ever at the 2014 UBCM convention. I’ll discuss that in a future column.

centralized bargaining agency, such as the government set up last year to wrestle the B.C. Teachers’ Federation to the ground? “We haven’t formulated our answer,” de Jong said. “What the data does suggest, however, is that there may well be some merit [to centralized bargaining]. One of the recommendations points to a more coordinated approach to some of the negotiations that take place.” Will the new municipal auditor general have a role in this? “The purpose of the auditor was not to become an enforcement mechanism,” de Jong said. “It was to play a traditional audit function on whether taxpayers are getting value for money. To that extent I suppose a municipal auditor might be able to comment on the advantages of coordinating efforts.” NDP leader John Horgan’s attack on the compensation report was as predictable as it was selective. In his speech to delegates, Horgan called it “onesided, politically motivated, shoddy work” designed to embarrass local politicians on the eve of their elections. Did he question Ernst

Quesnel Live Arts kicks off 2014/2015 season ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter
Quesnel Live Arts first show of their 2014/2015 season is a dynamic combination of Canadian folk hero, Valdy and the blue-haired priestess of the bassoon, Nadina Mackie Jackson, Oct. 7, 7:30 p.m., Chuck Mobley Theatre. For more than 34 years, Valdy has been part of the fabric of Canadian pop and folk music. From Newfoundland to Vancouver Island to Texas and New Zealand, he’s a man with a thousand friends. It’s said he catches the small but telling moments that make up life and delivers them to eager audiences around the world. “I’ve been lucky,” Valdy said when asked about his

No university in Canada has a history like UNBC’s. Imagine 16,000 people calling on government to create a northern university. It happened here. Before UNBC was a university, it was a social movement that instilled a strong sense of ownership, purpose, and adventure in the region, which carries over to our students today. The son of a university administrator, Peter Walsh had been around universities all his life until he came to Northern BC. There were none here, until citizens like him decided to change that. He’s now a UNBC grad, and so is his daughter Mary.

Bev Pontius and Janice Butler share a moment during rehearsals. Contributed photo
KMT proudly presents The Fantasticks ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter Kersley Musical Theatre (KMT) is back. Yes, Janice Butler and Cathy Heinzelman are back directing and producing The Fantasticks. The longest running offBroadway musical of all time is coming to Kersley Hall Nov. 2 – 8. The show has a dual purpose, first they are hoping to raise funds for Bev Pontius who is currently in the medical battle of her life. She has been the piano player for KMT since their first production almost 15-yearsago. Not only did she play at every rehearsal and for all the shows but she also took on the music for the ‘YES’ shows and some of the Cottonwood Musical Theatre shows. Pontius is best known for her never-ending patience and love. “You could look over at the
piano anytime and just see how much she loved the music, the shows and probably most of all, the antics of the crazy cast members that kept her on her toes,” Butler said. “Bev has been ill this past year and is in need of support and KMT wants to help her out and what better way for a band of actors/singers/dancers to raise money than to put on a show.” The second reason for this production is to also raise funds for another production. No one is saying what that production might be but rumour has it that it might be about an English nanny who flies into some children’s lives with an umbrella and a huge carpet bag full of magic. “Oh, and there also is talk of penguins,” Bulter added with a chuckle. The Fantasticks is a 1960s musical which tells the story of two neighbouring fathers who trick their children into falling in love by pretending to feud.
Once the children discover the deception and lies, they reject the arranged love match and separate. Each then gains disillusioning experiences of the real world, then return to each other bruised but enlightened and they renew their vows with more maturity. The show’s original offBroadway production ran a total of 42 years and 17,162 performances, making it the world’s longest-running musical. “It’s a fun but very different production with a very small cast. The music for this production is much more sophisticated and challenging than many musical scores,” Butler and Heinzelman said. “I’m very pleased with the cast of eight. They’re experienced and seasoned and very easy to work with. I’m very impressed and they all have very big hearts for Bev.” The cast includes seven males,
Denver and Brody Lamarche, Don Peeke Vout, Bert Koning, Stephan Davies, John Matheson and Jeff Sandve and one lone female, Jenaya Barker. Butler added its been wonderful to slip back into a very comfortable role as director. “It’s been four years since we’ve been in any rehearsals,” she admitted. When asked why this play, she said she’d directed this particular play before and knew it was a small show, very manageable in a hurry. “There’s minimal sets, only one costume for each actor and the story is timeless and enchanting while being funny and endearing.” From read through to stage is just two months. For producer Heinzelman its a bit more complicated as much of the infrastructure from previous productions no longer exists or must be salvaged from storage.
“We’re starting from scratch with costumes and fortunately there’s not much for sets,” she said. “I just take care of anything that needs doing. It’s bittersweet with Bev’s illness.” Cathy Walsh is the pianist for this production and although she doing an admirable job filling Pontius’ shoes, both Butler and Heinzelman said they miss Pontius very much. Lacy MacDonald is Janice’s assistant for this play and with her extensive experience with KMT, she is able to assist in most areas. Tickets for this production will go fast so be sure to pick yours up right away at the Tourist Info Centre, Kersley General Store or Bo Peep Boutique. If you’re interested in advertising or donating to the Bev Pontius fund contact Christy Kennedy, KMT’s public relations person, 250-983-2423.

Clark wants municipal pay to be election issue TOM FLETCHER Black Press Premier Christy Clark wants rising municipal pay rates to be front and centre in November elections around B.C., and that’s why her government set off a storm at the annual local government convention by releasing an unflattering comparison study with provincial pay. In her speech to close the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention Friday, Clark told 2,000 local government delegates she is “not here to point a finger” at local governments, but she wants them to do the hard work of negotiations as the province did in the recent dispute with B.C. teachers. A study by Ernst and Young was released days before the convention by the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation. It calculated that unionized municipal staff received pay increases of 38 per cent between 2001 and 2012, twice as much as unionized provincial staff, and ahead of inflation of 23 per cent during the same period. “I think it’s a legitimate issue to be discussed because it’s taxpayers who pay for these compensation costs,”

Clark told reporters after her speech. “Further than that we’ll wait until we have new municipal councils to speak with, and then we can talk about the next steps.” NDP local government critic Selina Robinson said the report, prepared and leaked without notice to the UBCM, “hit a group of people over the head with a two-by-four.” Robinson also objected to Clark urging B.C. residents to choose peaceful accommodation,
saying the long and bitter strike that shut schools for five weeks is a poor example. In her speech, Clark emphasized the importance of resource development, an apparent reference to the battle led by Burnaby against the proposed expansion of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline. Clark announced the appointment of Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett to lead a rural advisory committee to give rural communities a “fair

on a long-standing government promise to extend broadband Internet to small communities, and vowed to renew efforts for communities such as Granisle, where fibre optic lines stopped just short of the community.

CAPSULE COMMENTS With Jessica Joly B.Sc. (Pharm)
We’re getting close to the flu season again a time when some people try to decide whether to get a flu shot or not. Why suffer through the flu if you don’t have to? Although the shots haven’t been 100% effective, they certainly reduce the chances of your getting the flu and at the same time you are protecting others as well. The flu vaccine can’t give you the flu. It contains only a killed virus which cannot infect you but builds up antibodies against the flu virus. Nasal vaccines do contain a live virus but have the parts of the virus removed to reduce side effects. Some people feel that if they get the flu once in a season that are protected from getting it again. Not so. Both types A and B flu viruses circulate each season and if one infects, you still could be infected by another strain. People talk about side effects of flu vaccine. In 2012 in Ontario, 7.8 million publicly-funded flu shots were given. Of those, there were 252 sore arms, 137 rashes and 47 fevers. And only 56 of the adverse effects were labeled “serious”. Flu vaccines are very safe and side effects are very few. By the way, it is safe to get a flu shot if you are pregnant. Because pregnancy puts extra stress on the immune system, there is an increased risk of getting the flu if you aren’t vaccinated. You are also doing your baby a favour as well. If you have any questions about flu shots, our pharmacists will be very happy to answer them.

raser River changes course, grabs a gear and pulverizes Bue Collar 7-5 as Bear mauls Serenity 7-3 thanks to “Killer’s” continued hotstreak. Based on last week’s preliminary results, odds makers had BCS as a slight favourite over Fraser River, but that turned out to be a risky bet as the Chevy Crew blew the doors off the BCS crummy 7-5. Leading the beat down was “Captain” Kevin
Steve Dodge
PAPERBACK WRITER Hesslegrave as he scored a hat trick with super-sub Wade Price “Was right” chipping in a pair of goals and assists. Also having a fine morning was Jason
“Junior” Johnson with a trio of assists and Derek “Mike” Kitamura who scored once and earned one assist. Scoring the goal of the game (GOG) was Shane “The Pain” Thon who split his own D before roofing the puck where the sun don’t shine. Replying for the BCS side who seemed a bit discombobulated at times was Les “Knuckles” Nylen and Colin “Kevlar” Keis who both scored a pair to go with an assist.
Also scoring for BCS was Ian Hannah “Alberta” who nicklebacked his first of the year. Meanwhile back in the Barn on Barlow that looked more like a sauna than an arena Bear started off and ended strong as they frustrated Serenity at every turn in the 7-3 win. The lucky centre man who got to play with “Killer” this week was Lee “Nitro” Naeth who seized the opportunity scoring four
goals and an assist as Randy “Killer” Crofts continued his wonderful start with a post and in rocket and three first half assists. Anchoring the #1 line was Brian “Big Papi” Inwood who bounced one in and added a helper. Also getting into the act was Steve “Sayonara” Dodge whose flail on the backhand found the twine as “Dynamite” Derek Burdekin scored the “GOG” with a shorthanded, end to end,
water bottle blasting beauty. Replying for a suddenly sullen Serenity squad was Wade “The Blade” Fenton on a toe drag clinic as he also assisted on Dan “The Man” Lowdnes mesh rippler as Chad “The Comet” Swanson scored at least one goal but was only credited with a singleton. – Steve Dodge is a defensive winger with Bear Communications and an Observer contributor.

Catching the ringette bug
I
didn’t know anything about the sport when my 7 year old daughter came home and said, “I want to try ringette.” I’m always up for my kids trying a variety of activities so I went along with her and signed her up. Little did I know that she would develop a love for the sport, drag me along as well, and pass the same ringette bug to her younger sisters. Ringette is a sport similar to hockey. You strap on your equipment, lace up your skates and step on the ice. The similarities to hockey end there. Ringette zones force more passing, step up the speed of the game and ensure that all players get involved in the play. There is no checking in ringette. You need to play the ring first, but “incidental” contact while attempting to play the ring is common and you quickly learn to stay strong and skate hard. Most ringette players I know are fiercely devoted to

This is probably why you get so many invitations to parties and other social occasions. Enjoy your fanfare.
Practice makes perfect for these ringette players, taking to the ice to hone their skills. their sport. When my daughter started playing ringette I was astounded by the universal love of play. Talking to older girls or women who have played the sport their response to Ringette was always the same. “I loved playing ringette.”

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, a new person comes into your life and your attraction to this person catches you off guard. It’s okay to flirt, but if you’re already attached to someone, leave it at that. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you’re often the one to take the lead in conversations in your group of friends, but this week someone else takes the lead. You’re content to sit back and simply listen. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, once you have gained enough confidence in a special interest, you may be able to turn it into a career instead of just a hobby. Keep working toward that goal. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 It’s time to tie up some loose ends, Aquarius. Rustle up some energy to take care of all those little things that need to be wrapped up. You’ll feel a weight lift afterward.

A tired ringette player takes a break on the ice.
Ringette, a true team sport from A12 How much stronger they have become. But, in true ringette fashion they also celebrate the success of their teammates. A hat trick for one player is fantastic, but that celebration is easily eclipsed when a girl scores her first goal. Ringette is truly a team sport. The Quesnel Ringette Association
has been active for 25 years in our community. This year we are sending three Quesnel players to Team BC to play in the Canada Winter games. Only one other association in British Columbia is as well represented as Quesnel. One. Not bad for a small town association. Ringette is a game focussed on skating,
passing, teamwork, speed and fun. If you want your kids to learn to skate, and have fun doing it, ringette is the game to play. The Quesnel Ringette Association is open for registrations and currently has a $99 deal for any new players. The association can supply equipment as well.
If your child wants to skate and have fun there is no better time to try ringette. One of my favourite quotes about ringette came from a rough and tumble logger from Kelowna who played hockey growing up and now coaches ringette. “Ringette is one beautiful game.” For information visit www. quesnelringette.
